Li Ping released Hua Jieyu's hand, and Lang Fanyun was overjoyed, putting away the Fuyu sword that was held against Li Ping's neck.
He had already sensed the change in Li Ping, and he no longer needed to behead Li Ping.
These past few days, he's been like an executioner, beheading people every day. It doesn't seem to have any real impact on his mental state, but it's still unsettling.
Li Ping clasped his hands in thanks to Hua Jieyu and said, "Thank you, Protector Hua..."
Hua Jieyu looked bewildered. She didn't know what had happened. All she knew was that Li Ping had gotten rid of her "Formless Celestial Maiden" supernatural power!
Surprisingly, this didn't harm him; instead, it greatly improved his mental cultivation!
She couldn't help but ask, "Sect Leader Li, how did you do that? What exactly happened?"
Li Ping smiled but remained silent.
Having become a follower of the "Formless Celestial Maiden" multiple times, experiencing the perfection she brings, and then returning to his normal state, Li Ping was able to examine himself in both states, finally finding the flaw in his own heart...
The problem lies in the fact that he is a time traveler, or at least he believes he is a time traveler, so his consciousness and body are somewhat mismatched.
This mismatch leads to disharmony between his conscious mind and his primordial spirit, resulting in a subtle but imperceptible mental flaw.
But what if we look at this issue from a different perspective?
She didn't transmigrate after fighting the bandits, but rather long ago, born into this world as an infant. However, due to the mystery surrounding her birth, she had never remembered who she was.
Just when she was about to be killed by bandits, she discovered the mystery of her unborn child...
So from beginning to end, the young bodyguard from Fuwei Escort Agency and Li Ping, the time traveler from later generations, were originally the same person.
Once Li Ping came to this realization, the barrier between consciousness and body, between the conscious mind and the spirit, simply vanished without a trace.
His mind was once again at peace, without any flaws.
As for his "crack in the Dao heart," it stems from the complete "disappearance" of a part of his past.
The formless celestial maiden is able to fill this "deficiency" deep in people's hearts.
Although the principles are different, when Li Ping is controlled by the "Formless Celestial Maiden", his "crack in the Dao Heart" can be repaired.
Therefore, as long as he breaks free from Hua Jieyu's control while being controlled by the "Formless Celestial Maiden", he can successfully repair his Dao Heart.
This is actually not difficult, because Li Ping's mental strength and soul power are far superior to Hua Jieyu's.
Even if Hua Jieyu is his "goddess", it wouldn't be difficult to break through her.
But the most difficult part is that once you become a follower of the "Formless Celestial Maiden," you will never even think about escaping the control of Hua Jieyu...
Unless, like Li Ping, one can become a follower of Hua Jieyu many times, break free from her control many times, and develop "immunity" in this way...
Thus, Li Ping finally succeeded in breaking free from the "God in His Heart" and escaped the control of the "Formless Celestial Maiden".
Just after Li Ping repaired the flaws in his mind and mended the cracks in his Dao heart, he finally overcame the obstacle that had been blocking him and gave birth to the rudimentary form of the Ultimate Yin, which was equivalent to reaching the demonic transformation realm of the Dao Heart Demon Seed Great Art.
When he reaches that level, there will be no more obstacles in his path.
The cultivation he received from Pang Ban was finally fully integrated, propelling Li Ping to the realm of demonic immortality, where Dao and demonic arts merged and Yin and Yang were in harmony.
That is, the "Shattered Realm" that shatters the void.
At that moment, he sensed the presence of Zhang Sanfeng and Lang Fanyun.
Their souls seemed to have entered another dimension, becoming a different kind of existence that transcended this world.
Although it cannot shatter the void, this feeling is still intoxicating.
Lang Fanyun laughed and said, "Congratulations, Brother Li! Now I'm free too..."
Li Ping said, "Not yet. I'm going to use the blood of the Fire Qilin to try to 'become a demon' later."
Lang Fanyun said with a bitter face, "You're only targeting me, aren't you?!"
"However, I seriously doubt whether you could 'become a demon' at that level? Because it's impossible for us to lose control of our rationality!"
"By the way, now that you've broken free from the control of the Formless Celestial Maiden, you know how to break free from her control, right?"
Li Ping gave a thumbs-up, pointing to his chest, and said, "Of course..."
Subsequently, he planted a seed in the hearts of Ling Zhantian, Shi Feixuan, and Hua Wuque—a seed to break the "God in their hearts."
As long as they have the idea, and as long as they persist in trying, they have a chance to succeed.
If they achieve this, they can possess another kind of "perfect spiritual mind".
After listening to Li Ping's explanation, Lang Fanyun finally breathed a sigh of relief: "If that's the case, Zhan Tian is not wrong. The Formless Celestial Maiden may not necessarily be a bad thing..."
For most people, achieving "perfect enlightenment" is something that is unattainable. There is no specific method of cultivation for it; it depends entirely on your own understanding.
But Hua Jieyu can help people cultivate a different kind of "perfect Dao heart"—how amazing is that!?
Then, Li Ping looked at Hua Jieyu and said, "Protector Hua, you have helped me a lot this time, so I have something to tell you."
"Pang Ban has died in his duel with me..."
These words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Hua Jieyu and Li Chimei frozen in place, their hearts filled with turbulent waves.
The sorcerer actually lost...
Before they knew it, tears were streaming down their faces.
Because their "god" died...
Li Ping continued, "I'll give you two choices. The first is to kill you all right now."
"Secondly, from now on you'll all follow me..."
"I'll give you time to consider."
After a long silence, Li Chimei finally said, "Then the grasslands..."
Li Ping said, "The Tatars surrendered and moved into the Central Plains. Of course, the conditions are not as good as before, but they can still survive."
Li Chimei sighed, "Chimei is willing to surrender! Little sister, let's surrender together..."
Although they failed to conquer the Central Plains again, this time the Central Plains did not exterminate them all, which can be considered a great stroke of luck amidst misfortune!
The sorcerer is dead, killed by someone more powerful. So, following someone more powerful is acceptable...
Even if he doesn't consider himself, he has to consider Hua Jieyu.
He knew that if he didn't surrender, Hua Jieyu would never surrender.
Given the current situation, there's no need for my younger sister to die along with me...
Li Ping laughed loudly, "Excellent! With the addition of these two, my Search for Gods Palace is truly like a tiger with wings!"
"But you two must know that your supernatural powers are far too formidable, and I cannot fully trust you for the time being."
"Therefore, I will place some restrictions within your primordial spirits..."
"Once I fully trust you, I will naturally untie it for you."
Subsequently, Li Ping directly left a "restriction" in the minds of the two.
Li Ping is now capable of something akin to magic, which is to deeply embed the idea of "not betraying Li Ping" into the souls of both of them, making it an instinct for them.
Then, Li Ping removed the silver needles from Li Chimei's brain and gave him a blood medicine to repair his injuries.
Li Ping laughed and said, "Brother Li, perfect timing! I'd like to see your Heavenly Ghost Divine Power!"
The ultimate Yin is the limit of Yin-attribute true Qi, but it is not the limit of Yin-attribute energy. Li Ping was very interested in the Yin-evil Qi of Li Chimei's Heavenly Ghost Divine Power...
