Chapter 1104: Chapter 311: thods for Advancing to Unity and Venerable (Part 2)
Seeing Old Mr. Bai nod, Fang Ze deduced, “Therefore, in reality, the external demigods chose the wrong path from the very beginning. It’s never about ending the cycle of reincarnation after becoming a True God, but only those who fend off the external demigods’ invasion to terminate the cycle of reincarnation can truly ascend as True Gods with their great achievents!”
Old Mr. Bai slowly nodded, saying solemnly, “At least, that’s what I believe.”
Upon hearing Old Mr. Bai’s admission, Fang Ze couldn’t help but to ponder deeply.
With the strength of just one Absolute Pinnacle Demigod, he prevented so many Venerables and Demigods from arriving from the Outer Realm. Fang Ze felt that even for soone as exceptional as himself, this would be a daunting task. No wonder so many worlds’ creatures have failed in the past.
As if reading Fang Ze’s thoughts, Old Mr. Bai added calmly,
“I’m guessing you’re wondering how an Absolute Pinnacle Demigod can defend against so many Venerables and Demigods.”
Fang Ze looked up upon hearing this.
But Old Mr. Bai slowly shook his head, “You’ve misunderstood. It’s not the Absolute Pinnacle Demigod, but only the Absolute Pinnacle Realm.”
“Your ancestors and family died early, so they probably didn’t inform you of this: From the mont one becos a demigod, their power level is fixed. Unless they ascend to Venerable status, there’s no way to increase it.”
Upon hearing another secret truth, Fang Ze’s eyes nearly bugged out.
And then, he felt a wave of fear.
He honestly didn’t know that demigods’ strength was fixed; he had wanted to beco a demigod early on. But he was always worried about so inherent problem with the demigod rank, which is why he hesitated to advance.
Unexpectedly, he inadvertently avoided a major pitfall.
Thinking this, Fang Ze beca curious and asked, “But at best, the Absolute Pinnacle Realm is equal to a Mortality-Shedding Demigod. With such strength, how can one resist so many external Venerables and Demigods?”
Old Mr. Bai slightly shook his head upon hearing this and said, “I don’t know.”
“This is the reason why for so many years, across so many worlds, no one has beco a True God.”
Noticing Fang Ze’s disappointnt, Old Mr. Bai thought for a mont and then said, “However… although I don’t know the reason, over the years, I’ve co up with three potential ways to solve it.”
Upon hearing Old Mr. Bai’s words, Fang Ze couldn’t help but look up at him.
Old Mr. Bai said, “The first is to use external forces or collective power.”
“This is what the Federation is doing now.”
“Over the years, the Federation has researched and accumulated so good things. So are strong enough to rival an Absolute Pinnacle Demigod.”
“If these external forces help to fend off the external demigods, and the credit and faith are concentrated on one person, then perhaps… it might be possible to create a True God.”
Hearing this, Fang Ze felt… it was sowhat similar to the path he’s currently on.
Imdiately after, Old Mr. Bai continued, “The second is Unity.”
“Unity?” Hearing this sowhat familiar term, Fang Ze couldn’t help but look up.
He rembered this was the state in which Old Mr. Bai killed Galan Houde with one strike and severely wounded the Peacock God King.
At that ti, he had thought it was a level above demigod, but it seed not to be.
Old Mr. Bai slowly explained, “Unity is when one’s body and mind align, intent and heart align, heart and Dao align, hence the Unity.”
“Originally, this was a Martial Arts pinnacle state. But later, through the tales of those Venerables and Federation research, we realized it’s actually a spiritual realm applicable to all high-level Awakeners.”
“When soone finds their inner ‘Dao’ and willingly burns their life and soul to complete it, they enter a brand-new spiritual realm.”
“In this realm, a creature’s power is amplified based on the steadfastness of their ‘Dao Heart.’ If the heart’s ‘Dao’ is firm enough, even an Absolute Pinnacle Venerable might achieve it.”
“The only problem is… after the battle, or even during, one might perish like I did.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Ze was slightly bewildered, but then felt sothing odd. He couldn’t help but ask, “But… if one perishes, how can one beco a True God?”
Old Mr. Bai had clearly pondered this before and said calmly, “Timing discrepancy.”
“Ending Unity doesn’t an imdiate death. If less power is used, living a few more days is possible.”
“In such cases, as long as the Real World is successfully guarded, there’s hope to beco a True God before perishing.”
“And True Gods are indestructible, their spirits unending, thus they won’t perish.”
Hearing this, Fang Ze thoughtfully nodded, feeling this thod might indeed work.
Thinking this, he pondered for a mont, then couldn’t help but ask, “What about the third thod?”
Upon Fang Ze’s inquiry about the third thod, Old Mr. Bai sighed softly, saying, “Actually, you know the third thod.”
He explained, “We just talked about the Three Immortalities. If ‘Establish rit’ is too difficult to achieve, then can ‘Establish Virtue’ and ‘Establish Word’ be achieved?”
Seeing Fang Ze genuinely begin to contemplate, Old Mr. Bai slightly shook his head and then said,
“Don’t focus too much on this. The thod and standards for ‘Establish rit’ barely have any traces to follow, but ‘Establish Virtue’ and ‘Establish Word’ are too mysterious. No one knows the requirents to et.”
“Moreover…”
Pausing, Old Mr. Bai continued, “Regardless of which thod, achieving immortality has an extrely difficult prerequisite: unified faith. This is crucial.”
“But is it possible for billions of creatures to simultaneously have faith in one person?”
“Not to ntion the infiltration by those external demigods, even within humanity, worship and belief vary from state to state.”
“This has made the Federation, which found the direction to beco a True God, quite vexed in trying to recapture ‘faith.'”
At this point, Old Mr. Bai said with a hint of sentint, “Do you know why He Weidao excludes dissent and suppresses demigods across the Eastern Administrative Region, even plotting against and Emperor Li, yet we still willingly cooperate with him?”
Old Mr. Bai said, “Because this is actually the Federation’s plan.”
“Back then, the Federation didn’t know how to win the Domain wars through unifying faith to create a True God. So they granted states high autonomy and granted demigods too much publicity and privilege.”
“This has caused demigods to have imnse influence in their respective states. Many people know only the demigods, not the Federation.”
“Simply these have divided the faith of the entire Human Race into over a hundred parts.”
“Only by reversing this situation can unified faith create a True God.”
Hearing this, Fang Ze suddenly realized why after Old Mr. Bai’s death, He Weidao kept downplaying Old Mr. Bai’s achievents. The main purpose was to recapture faith, diminishing the demigods!
Although Fang Ze felt He Weidao was still unforgivable, he understood so of He Weidao’s motives.
Thus, Fang Ze and Old Mr. Bai spent a whole evening talking, with one questioning and the other answering.
It wasn’t until the next morning that Fang Ze, at Old Mr. Bai’s “expulsion,” left the Ti Secret Realm.
The night’s conversation with Old Mr. Bai was fruitful for Fang Ze; not only did he learn thods for becoming a True God, but he also understood the thods for entering and advancing through Unity and the Venerable tier.
One could say, the night’s exchange fully opened Fang Ze’s path upward.
This prompted him, upon leaving, to bow deeply toward the Ti Waterfall, thankful to Old Mr. Bai for his guidance.
Although he’d never spoken directly to Old Mr. Bai’s True Body, Fang Ze would never forget Old Mr. Bai’s help and guidance.
anwhile, as Fang Ze was reminiscing by the pool about Old Mr. Bai,
Suddenly, the door to the Garden of Ti was pushed open from outside, and Fang Ze turned to see Bai Zhi briskly entering.
Standing before Fang Ze, Bai Zhi spoke sternly, “Fang Ze, sothing has happened. I just received orders, He Weidao issued a deadly command to thirteen noble families, demanding the thirteen families to gather at the Yunlan State and Tuoya State border by the day after tomorrow, preparing for the opening of the Truth and the Venerable battle!”
Hearing Bai Zhi’s words, Fang Ze was stunned for a mont, then couldn’t help but smile, “Isn’t this serendipitous?”
“I just finished talking with Old Mr. Bai and was about to visit He Weidao to have a ‘good chat’ about past events. Unexpectedly, he just delivered himself.”
