Chapter 926: Chapter 470: Merit

Fang Zhixing couldn’t help but be curious: "The Calamity Water is highly poisonous, everyone avoids it, what are you seeking the Calamity Water for, Fairy?"

Upon hearing this, the Firefly Fairy’s eyes shifted slightly, and she replied with a surprised expression: "Fellow Daoist, which path have you chosen to attain the Dao?"

The path to attaining the Dao...

Fang Zhixing looked confused and shook his head, saying: "Please speak plainly, Fairy."

The Firefly Fairy understood and nodded: "It seems you are indeed a Loose Cultivator without guidance from a master, and you have to explore the path of cultivation on your own."

Fang Zhixing had heard these words more than once.

Indeed, as a Loose Cultivator, without the support of a sect or a heritage, many pieces of information couldn’t be acquired timely.

The Firefly Fairy slowed her pace and spoke while flying: "Our cultivation is divided into one phrase and two stages.

The phrase is: My fate is determined by myself, not by the heavens!

The two stages are: Fight with others, fight with the heavens!

Fighting with others is the Fate Realm, where you must first control your own fate, and then control the fate of all beings!

And the method to control your own fate is to overcome Calamities!

The method to control the fate of all beings is to unleash Calamities!

From this, it can be seen that Calamity is the core and foundation of the Fate Realm, everything revolves around Calamity."

Fang Zhixing wholeheartedly agreed, responding: "So, the realm of cultivation above the Fate Realm is to cultivate Calamity?"

"You could say that!"

The Firefly Fairy nodded gently, "Since Calamity is fundamental, why not become Calamity itself?

Do you need to use immortal power to resist Calamity now, or to unleash Calamity on others, but what if you were Calamity yourself?

Others cannot use Calamity to harm you, because you are Calamity itself.

At the same time, you don’t need to unleash Calamity on others; you can directly attack with Tribulation Power, can’t you?"

Questioning Calamity, understanding Calamity, becoming Calamity!

Good grief!

Fang Zhixing suddenly realized; so that’s how Immortal Cultivation and Dao attainment are played.

A working person merely thinks about how to earn more money.

A wealthy person simply considers becoming a money printing machine, printing money for themselves to spend; how delightful!

So, is the ultimate purpose of Immortal Cultivation just unlimited money printing?!

Fang Zhixing thought about it, furrowing his brows, asking: "Since Calamity is the foundation of everything, why is there talk of a path to attain the Dao?"

"Good question!"

The Firefly Fairy couldn’t help but laugh softly: "Since ancient times, the path for cultivation and Dao attainment has always been becoming Calamity until a Saint appeared!

This Saint initially cultivated Calamity as well, transforming himself into Calamity, and was extraordinarily powerful, invincible.

But later, he suddenly realized something; not only did he disperse his own Calamity, but he also used great courage to resolve the Calamity of all beings.

Gradually, the Calamity on him transformed into a completely new power, which is Merit!"

Calamity!

Merit!

Many familiar yet unfamiliar words drew a magical convergence at this moment.

"Cultivate Calamity! Cultivate Merit!"

"These are the two main paths of Immortal Cultivation and Dao attainment!"

The Firefly Fairy solemnly stated: "Merit can resolve Calamity, conversely Calamity can also erode Merit.

Merit and Calamity are like light and darkness, clearly distinct, mutually opposed, so we can only choose one.

It’s precisely because of this that Immortals are divided into two types: one is Merit Immortal, and the other is Tribulation Immortal!"

Fang Zhixing couldn’t help but ask: "Between these two paths, which is superior or inferior?"

The Firefly Fairy responded: "The future of Merit Immortal is to forge the Merit Golden Body, the Dao is promising.

The future of Tribulation Immortal is to forge the Myriad Tribulations Body, the Daoist Skills are boundless.

Both sides have their own merits; as for which is more outstanding, the Cultivation World has debated for millions of years, and there’s still no conclusion."

Fang Zhixing quickly understood.

Calamity and Merit are like two sides of a mirror.

Without Calamity, how can there be Merit?

When Merit is perfect, how can there be Calamity?

While speaking, they arrived at the Firefly Fairy’s abode, which was conveniently located next to the Calamity Water.

Fang Zhixing floated down to the shore and immediately felt the water vapor permeating the air, filled with intense Calamity.

Even if you are an Immortal, a few random breaths would cause your lungs to fester, your entire body to swell with sores, and endless calamities.

Luckily Fang Zhixing had just broken into the Perfect Realm, his immortal power robust, and coupled with his Six Stars physical body, he could easily be immune to the Calamity Water’s aura.

The Firefly Fairy’s performance was naturally better, showing no discomfort at all, she lightly smiled and said: "My goal is to become a Tribulation Immortal, so I specifically chose a ’Earth Tribulation’ cultivation technique "Thousand Illusion Calamity Erosion Rain" to practice, cultivating beside this Calamity Water immensely benefits me."

Fang Zhixing asked: "Is it true that reaching the Perfect Realm allows one to officially cultivate Calamity?"

The Firefly Fairy nodded: "Regarding the division of Cultivation Realms, it is actually quite simple.

’Fighting with others’ is above ’Fighting with the heavens’.

The former is the Lifebound Realm, cultivating Fate!

The latter is the Heavenly Destiny Realm, cultivating Calamity or Merit.

With different paths chosen, the divisions of realms also differ.

For example, if cultivating Calamity, it is divided into Tribulation Transformation Realm, Heavenly Tribulation Realm, Eternal Tribulation Realm, etc.

If cultivating Merit, it is divided into Life Establishment Realm, Eternal Realm, Immortal Realm, etc.

However, such divisions are somewhat cluttered, later the Cultivation World established the levels of Immortals according to strength, unifying the nomenclature.

The lowest stage of Immortal in Fate Realm is called Lower Immortal.

Further up from Tribulation Transformation Realm or Life Establishment Realm is Upper Immortal, followed by Golden Immortal, Daluo Golden Immortal!"

Fang Zhixing nodded to show he understood.

He is currently a top-tier Lower Immortal, the Firefly Fairy is an Upper Immortal in the Tribulation Transformation Realm.

The two entered the abode.

Upon entering, they saw a young woman dressed in Blood Clothes kneeling on the ground, with a charming appearance and a fiery figure.

Her eyes were slightly lowered, her hair untied, giving a delicate and pitiful sense of beauty.

Fang Zhixing immediately sensed the flow of a Special Blood Body within this young woman.
