#754 - Seven Emotions and Six Desires
Shuiyue Sect Leader Shui Fangshu continued to explain, "The lust of the soul is a deeper and more complex emotion.
It transcends the constraints of the physical body and reaches the depths of the heart.
Any hero finds it hard to resist the charms of a beautiful woman. Li Chengfeng is no exception.
Although he is decisive in killing and possesses overwhelming strength, he must pass this test to advance to the half-step God Transformation stage.
The Red Dust Tempering of the Heart is the most dangerous part of this step. A single mistake can lead to death and eternal damnation."
"Although it's only half a step to God Transformation, tempering the heart is only half the battle, but with Li Chengfeng's character, how could he not strive for perfection?
Therefore, we have already forged a path for him."
Shui Mingyue Sect Leader Shui Fangshu's words revealed a hint of conspiracy.
After hearing this, Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor clapped his hands in praise and said, "Excellent, what a brilliant plan! How did I not think of that?"
Xuanwu's doppelganger also said with a smile, "Of course, Fellow Daoist, you wouldn't have thought of it, because you overlooked one point.
Li Chengfeng's current strength is almost approaching the half-step God Transformation stage.
When we formulated this plan, we treated him as the strongest opponent.
My main body didn't look down on Li Chengfeng like you did.
My main body felt that Li Chengfeng would soon advance to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and the next step would be the Red Dust Tempering of the Heart, so he prepared this assassination.
As expected, Li Chengfeng already possesses this, so he is bound to die."
Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor sighed, his voice revealing endless regret, "So that's how it is. It's a pity that if we could have kept Li Chengfeng in the Evil Spirit Space battle, we wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble."
Xuanwu's doppelganger curled the corners of his mouth into a faint smile, his voice revealing depth and wisdom, "No one can be infallible. The cycle of heaven revolves, and time flows. Who dares to say they are a perpetually victorious general?
My master has set up many paths of certain death for Li Chengfeng, just because he felt that once wasn't enough, so there would be a second time.
Because my master doesn't underestimate anyone, especially Li Chengfeng's cunning and strength."
Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor praised him outwardly, but he was inwardly terrified.
Only now did he truly appreciate the power of Xuanwu's main body.
A single doppelganger was so powerful, and he had forces in every continent, each force being so vast.
At first, when Xuanwu's doppelganger found him and proposed to refine the ancient demon's body, he scoffed at it, thinking it was wishful thinking.
But now it seemed that the only one who could do this was Xuanwu's doppelganger, and no one else.
At this time, Li Chengfeng had indeed arrived outside the sect.
However, he was not in a hurry to enter, but became cautious.
He wandered around outside, examining the geography, calculating the position, trying to find the best time to attack.
He knew very well that the Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor had been invited to Xuanwu's base here, which was his grave, and it was bound to be a dragon's den and a tiger's lair.
But Li Chengfeng had one personality trait that had never changed, and that was that all those who had plotted against him must be completely eradicated.
The death of the Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor seemed to have become a part of Xuanwu's doppelganger's plan.
The fall of the Blood Clan's Xue Qiankun, his head being used as part of the Head Tower, this cruel fact undoubtedly sounded the alarm for the Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor.
However, facing the powerful Xuanwu doppelganger and the evil path he had laid out, the Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor seemed to have no choice but to passively accept this fate.
However, Li Chengfeng was not in a hurry to step into this conflict.
Even though the other party had lost the Chaos Pearl, they might still have other treasures hidden in their hands.
Li Chengfeng secretly calculated in his mind that if he could get another treasure, he might be able to successfully advance to the half-step God Transformation stage.
However, advancing to the half-step God Transformation stage was not easy.
Although Li Chengfeng had many half-step God Transformation experts under his command, their cultivation experiences had been sealed and included in his information search system—the Celestial Instrument Pearl.
This system was located in a sphere deep in his sea of consciousness, covered with dense formations, mainly to help him deduce cultivation techniques.
He named this sphere the Celestial Instrument Pearl.
As early as when Li Chengfeng was in the Core Formation stage, he had already begun to prepare for advancing to the half-step God Transformation stage.
He had deduced cultivation techniques countless times and had a deep understanding of the Red Dust Tempering of the Heart realm.
When others tempered their hearts in the Red Dust, they would wait until the half-step God Transformation stage was complete before making various preparations to temper their hearts.
However, Li Chengfeng was different.
Since he embarked on the path of cultivation, he had been tempering his heart every step of the way.
He adhered to the concept of a still heart, keeping his mood spotless and flawless.
Only by truly achieving detachment from the seven emotions and six desires of the human world can one attain sublimation and ascend into the Spirit Realm to receive the baptism of a higher plane.
Then, he would slowly cultivate and pursue a higher realm.
Although it sounds simple, the dangers involved are numerous.
Red Dust Tempering of the Heart is a compulsory path for cultivators, and its difficulty is even greater than the disturbance of inner demons.
During this process, the deepest fears and worries of the seven emotions and six desires will surge like a tide, disturbing the mind.
A single carelessness can lead to death and eternal damnation.
And everyone's path of tempering the heart is different, some are smooth, and some are rugged.
Red Dust Tempering of the Heart is not only about refining the past self, but also about achieving a brand new future.
Li Chengfeng, this cultivator who has experienced the vicissitudes of life, naturally knows this well.
When he came to this Shuiyue Sect, he immediately felt the different aura and atmosphere here.
After more than ten days of careful observation, he finally captured the unique feature here—the cultivation techniques practiced here are actually the path of lust, that is, the path of dual cultivation.
How powerful is this path of dual cultivation!
Those who can walk this path are by no means ordinary people.
Sects like the Joyous Union Sect are just shrimps among them.
And here, it is filled with a special atmosphere, which makes people willingly invest in it unconsciously.
What it emphasizes is one word—love.
When you deeply love someone, you will fall into the other person's emotional net and be unable to extricate yourself.
However, Li Chengfeng was not confused by this atmosphere.
What seems to be calm here is actually surging with undercurrents, and a storm is about to come.
Therefore, he always maintained vigilance, carefully following the disciples of the sect in and out, for fear of triggering any formations.
It was precisely because of his caution that his figure did not appear on the crystal ball.
As long as he leaked a little bit of his aura, the ball would be able to capture his existence, then the other party would know that Li Chengfeng had arrived.
Li Chengfeng's caution did indeed allow him to avoid the risk of exposing his identity.
In the Living World Space, he quietly observed this sect, quickly calculating the plan in his mind.
He pushed the Living World Space to slowly move forward, because it was not far from the sect, he could clearly feel the movements of the disciples in the sect.
At this time, the disciples of the sect were having internal strife, which allowed Li Chengfeng to see the opportunity to mix in.
