Chapter 1478: Chapter 1479: The Path to the Heavens

Although the others were somewhat puzzled by Su Chengyu’s request, they ultimately did not say much about it.

Bai Qiu and Bei Tang Qianxiao joined the occupation together. With the support of the Heaven-Mending Stone in a three-on-one situation, they spared the flesh man’s life, ensuring that no further complications would arise.

"Big brother, is there something wrong with that flesh man?"

"Very wrong."

Su Chengyu furrowed his brows and said, "He emits Demonic Qi, but his mind is clearly abnormal. It doesn’t seem like he has simply lost memories, nor does it resemble the madness that overtakes those on the Demonic Path. Instead, the bizarre appearance of this flesh man reminds me of the Demon Men I’ve seen in the past."

"Demon Man?"

Chen Mengmeng spoke with surprise, having not seen such a creature in his life, yet still having heard of this particular existence, unwelcome among both the Human Clan and the Demon Clan.

Humans accepted the power of the Demon Clan and, after demonization, gave birth to Demon Men.

The strength of a Demon Man depends solely on the level of the Big Monster that grants them demon power, rather than on their own potential. Xia Country, whether in the past or now, only has one stance towards Demon Men.

No mercy.

"Demon Men are neither human nor part of the Demon Clan; they are beings that do not belong to the Three Realms or the Five Elements. Falling into demonization, they lose the ability to autonomously enhance their own strength and resemble puppets more, becoming an existence that is even lower than enslaved Ferocious Beasts."

Chen Mengmeng pondered and then said, "Big brother, are you worried that people from the Demonic Path will use this method to mass-produce these flesh men?"

Su Chengyu shook his head: "I don’t know, but I have a feeling that this General’s Tomb is not just a secret realm discovered by the Demonic Path, but more like an experimental facility meant to serve that mysterious Mountain Lord, a place to research techniques to enslave Ferocious Beasts and God Beasts. If this conjecture is true, it’s not surprising that special products like the flesh men would be created."

This conjecture had formed in Su Chengyu’s mind when he discovered Taotie.

Divine God Beasts and then Ferocious Beasts—from any angle, the Demonic Path seemed intent on harnessing the power left over from ancient times for their own use.

After all, according to information obtained from the Bei Luo Empire, the Demonic Path, though revived from decline, likely does not possess more accumulated strength than the Nether Clan of the Dark Sea. Otherwise, they would not have entered into such an agreement as the Bam Alliance with the Nether Clan; they would opt for more direct methods to overpower the Nether Clan.

They need more living forces, and the way of the Ferocious Beast is clearly a path that Xia Country would not interfere with, no matter what.

After all, the innate overpowering strength of the Ferocious Beasts against the Human Clan ensures that humans and Ferocious Beasts cannot coexist.

While Su Chengyu found it hard to stop that route, which is now without a trace, the presence of the flesh man in front of him gave Su Chengyu a sense of crisis.

The flesh man could very likely be someone from the Demonic Path transformed, but who’s to say the same methods can’t be applied to ordinary Humans?

This method of assimilating people into flesh men is no less inferior than the technique used by the Nether Clan to assimilate puppets.

Roar!

The flesh man, sensing that the others wanted to capture him alive, let out an angry roar in an attempt to resist.

However, with the aid of Bai Qiu and Bei Tang Qianxiao, the Heaven-Mending Stone was no longer restrained. The Five-Color Divine Light formed a cage and instantly trapped the flesh man from behind.

Seeing this, the flesh man reached out to grab the cage, but the intense Creative Power from within the cage made the flesh man let go immediately.

"Creation gives birth to all things."

Su Chengyu muttered to himself as he watched the scene.

Chen Mengmeng turned around in confusion and said, "Big brother? What are you saying?"

"It’s nothing."

After saying that, Su Chengyu thought for a moment and added, "To be precise, it’s meaningless to you."

Chen Mengmeng looked at Su Chengyu with puzzlement filling his heart.

Su Chengyu didn’t bother to explain, not because he wanted to keep Chen Mengmeng in the dark, but rather because letting him know might actually slow down Chen Mengmeng’s progress in Cultivation. It was better not to speak of it.

Having come into contact with the Destiny Dao in the Hongmeng Heavenly Book, witnessed the Cause and Effect Great Dao in the Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart, and experienced the Power of Destruction in the Wasteland Battle Halberd, Su Chengyu’s understanding of the Heavenly Dao made him stand out among the younger generation.

Now, he could almost be certain that the path to becoming an Immortal or undergoing Divinity Transformation was to find one’s own suitable Heavenly Dao.

Yes, find it.

Not every Earth Immortal could possess the Power of the Great Dao, but the basic condition for becoming an Earth Immortal was to find one’s own suitable Heavenly Dao.

This quest on the mountainous path is all about searching for the Dao.

Long Xuan was born with a Celestial Being’s demeanor, for from the moment he began Cultivation, he had already found his path to the Heavenly Dao.

The battle at Qianjiufeng, although Long Xuan didn’t reveal much, looking back on his fight with Ye Qingci, Long Xuan already had the Power of the Great Dao accompanying him, though it seemed he hadn’t fully mastered it.

Chen Mengmeng was even more so. Born with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart, from the moment he started Cultivating, he was already utilizing the Heavenly Dao.

This starting point ensured he would face no bottlenecks on his Cultivation journey. Cultivation for Chen Mengmeng was merely a process of tempering the mind.

When the Mind State reached it, the orifices opened, and everything would naturally fall into place.

This was also the reason Su Chengyu didn’t feel the need to be open with Chen Mengmeng; he didn’t need to make his own choice among the many Daos. From the moment he stepped onto the path of Cultivation, Chen Mengmeng, like Long Xuan, was a person who had found his own pathway to the Dao.

And what about himself...

Su Chengyu subconsciously clenched the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hand.

The Immortal Decapitating Sword was Su Chengyu’s best expression of the Destiny Dao from within the Hongmeng Heavenly Book, but he had not found a way to blend the Destiny Dao into his own path of Cultivation; he had only integrated it into his Sword Momentum.

Aside from the already applied Road of Destiny, Su Chengyu had also come into contact with the Way of Cause and Effect, the Road of Destruction, and the Creative Power of the Heaven-Mending Stone before him.

He had already come into contact with these forces to varying degrees, but like that Power of Destiny, Su Chengyu still did not believe he could walk the path of ascension.

Fortunately, even if Su Chengyu couldn’t integrate these powers into his Cultivation path, it didn’t affect his usage of them.

The Creative Power of the Heaven-Mending Stone, the Power of Destruction of the Wasteland Battle Halberd—these powers which they themselves had not fully mastered, were used by Su Chengyu seamlessly. Therefore, Su Chengyu was not in a hurry.

The Heavenly Dao is fifty, the Great Dao has seven.

Primordial, Detachment, Merit, Creation, Destiny, Annihilation, Cause and Effect.

Each Dao further divides into seven aspects.

The forty-nine rules of the operation of the heavens and earth, Su Chengyu did not believe that there wasn’t a single one that could become his own pathway to the heavens!
