Chapter 3 God-Saving Technique
Chapter 3 God-Saving Technique
The moonlight was gentle, the night breeze whispered, and the forest rustled.
The sun had long since set, but the crimson giant eagle at the cave entrance still radiated scorching heat.
Yao Guang was enveloped by soft, smooth limbs, his nostrils filled with a rich, cloying fragrance. Her rosy almond-shaped eyes were slightly narrowed, and she smiled with her lips pursed. Her hair rhythmically tickled his ears and neck with each breath, making him unbearably itchy.
Hongfen licked her warm lips, savoring the enchanting and intense moments just now. She felt incredibly comfortable and satisfied, thinking to herself that she had truly struck gold today. Such a man with such exquisite taste could not be let go.
"My little lover, what's your name? Which sect do you follow?" After the passion subsided, Hongfen kissed his cheek and asked softly.
Yao Guang then feigned a blissful expression and said in a simple, honest way:
"I am Yao Guang, a mere mortal from the capital. I belong to no sect or school. My cultivation is entirely due to my accidental entry into an ancient ruin and the acquisition of an ancient scripture. However, this scripture is profound and obscure, and I have only learned the basics. I cannot understand the rest at all."
With the temperament he had honed through countless deceitful experiences in his previous life, his demeanor and emotions were flawless when he lied.
"Oh? Ancient cultivators' scriptures?" Hongfen's eyes lit up with interest. She rummaged through his clothes and pulled out a storage bag, only to find a few bottles of inferior pills.
"My love, where is the scripture..." Before the woman could ask in her soft voice, a series of ancient, obscure yet profoundly philosophical words rang in her ears:
"In the beginning, in the beginning, there was nothing, no form, no shape; none knew the heavy or the turbid, who could distinguish the light or the clear..."
"Born from chaos, it was divided into darkness and light, thus enabling heaven to be healthy and earth to be at peace..."
"The spirit of the grain never dies; it is called the Mysterious Female. It exists continuously, and its use is inexhaustible..."
"When I speak these words, all mysteries are revealed, and all things hear them..."
Hongfen never expected that this silly boy would be so naive as to read out the precious ancient scripture directly. But after listening for a while, the novelty in her eyes was replaced by a solemn and thoughtful expression, as if she was exploring the secrets of the Great Dao in the scripture.
"Wait a minute, my love."
Hongfen didn't forget where they were. She quickly got up and put the crimson giant eagle at the cave entrance into her spirit beast bag. At the same time, she took out several array plates, her jade fingers flying, making hand seals and chanting incantations, and continuously set up several layers of restrictive arrays to cover the cave entrance and the four walls to block the aura and isolate the sound.
After doing all this, Hongfen finally felt relieved and pulled Yao Guang, who was dressed, to sit opposite her. She smiled with great interest and said, "Continue."
Yao Guang sneered inwardly, his eyes becoming deep and mysterious. With a spiritual strength comparable to the early stage of Core Formation, strange and vivid characters flowed slowly from his mouth.
Before they knew it, half a day had passed. The two of them remained motionless, their beautiful red eyes fixed on Yao Guang, who was calmly reciting, listening with rapt attention.
Each word Yao Guang uttered, though not loud, possessed a strange rhythm, like a morning bell or evening drum, striking directly into the depths of her soul, causing the most primal tremors and resonance within her heart!
In reality, what Yao Guang was reciting was not some ancient cultivator's scripture, but a secret technique he had obtained in his previous life—the "Divine Transformation Technique," a heaven-defying secret technique that could convert people into devout believers.
This technique does not manipulate consciousness, but is based on the power of cause and effect. It evokes a resonance within the listener's inner self by reciting scriptures containing profound truths, causing them to unconsciously develop faith in the practitioner and be converted into the most devout believer.
Simply put, it is to use the practitioner as the "cause" to plant the "fruit" of faith in the listener's soul!
The more gifted a person is, the more they can immerse themselves in the profound truths they recite, and the easier it is for them to be enlightened.
However, this technique requires the spiritual strength to exceed that of the other party, and the higher the cultivation level of the other party, the longer it will take to convert them. Therefore, it is only suitable for use on low to mid-level cultivators.
This is also why, upon learning that Hongfen's cultivation level was in the late Foundation Establishment stage, he used the accumulated faith of all living beings to raise his own spiritual strength to the Core Formation stage.
The sound of chanting, sometimes like a gurgling spring, sometimes like rolling thunder, echoed continuously within this small cave.
Another half day passed, and the morning sun shone in the next day, dressing the two in a golden robe.
Hongfen stared blankly at Yao Guang, who was still chanting scriptures. In her eyes, Yao Guang's figure seemed to have become incomparably tall and sacred. Every word he uttered turned into golden runes, imprinted into her soul, and engraved into an eternal mark of the Dao.
The chanting continued for five days and five nights until Yao Guang's spiritual power was mostly exhausted and his consciousness fell to the Core Formation stage, at which point the chanting finally ended.
"It's done!"
Through the causal origin within his soul, Yao Guang saw a bright red line of cause and effect extending from his soul, ignoring all obstacles, piercing through the rosy brow of the woman opposite him, and connecting to the causal mark etched deep within her soul.
Her once alluring and captivating face now held only a pure and absolute devotion.
Ambition, desire, schemes, obsessions... as well as hatred, loyalty, and gratitude towards all other people and forces... vanished completely from her heart like ice melting away, leaving no trace.
From this day forward, in her heart, there is only Yao Guang, and she will live only for Yao Guang. That trace of cause and effect will transform into an undying faith in him, which will never be separated from her, life after life.
……
Yao Guang rubbed his throbbing forehead. As the power of faith in his soul dissipated, his consciousness returned to the Qi Refining stage.
His gaze swept over the rosy-cheeked woman, and all the allure and seduction she once possessed vanished. She knelt on the ground, her eyes lowered, her face pale, and her delicate body trembling slightly. It wasn't fear, but extreme regret and self-hatred.
Yao Guang looked at Hongfen, who seemed to be waiting for her fate and accepting whatever punishment she was given, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"Put your clothes on first." The words were gentle, without any anger.
Hongfen jolted, grabbing a pink dress from the side without hesitation and hastily putting it on, covering her undulating breasts and translucent white skin. Her casual, unrestrained movements made Yao Guang's eyes flicker with desire. He quickly composed himself and said seriously:
"Please introduce yourself and explain why you're here."
"Yes, Master." The woman in red sat obediently, biting her lower lip tightly, her eyes revealing a resolute desire to pledge allegiance and dedicate herself.
"Just call me Young Master," Yao Guang corrected.
"Yes, young master. I am Yunlu, the patriarch of the Hehuan Sect of Tianluo Kingdom... a disciple of the old demon. I am responsible for infiltrating Tianqin Mountain, a major sect of Cheqi Kingdom, with the old demon's personal token and secret letter, and secretly turning its high-ranking members to submit."
Facing her only faith and the only person she was worthy of loyalty to, Hongfen made no secrets.
"Currently, the Nascent Soul Ancestor of Tianqin Mountain and his core disciples have secretly submitted to the Hehuan Sect. I am outwardly disguised as a disciple of Tianqin Mountain, but in reality, I am passing on various confidential messages to the Hehuan Sect, paving the way for the future expansion of the six demonic sects and their annexation of the Cheqi Kingdom..."
"Tianqin Mountain?" Yao Guang raised an eyebrow, his tone inquiring.
Hongfen immediately explained to him: "Tianqin Mountain is one of the three major sects in the Cheqi Kingdom, with a Nascent Soul Ancestor in charge. It is renowned for its expertise in cultivating flying demon beasts."
"Just as I thought." Yao Guang thought to himself, "No wonder the Cheqi Kingdom was defeated so quickly in the original story. It turns out that the demonic path had started laying the groundwork more than ten years ago, and even sects with Nascent Soul cultivators in charge had become the demonic path's inside agents."
He asked a few more questions and learned from Hongfen's answers that all six sects of the Demonic Path had sent disciples skilled in disguise to infiltrate various cultivation forces in Cheqi Kingdom and the neighboring Jiang Kingdom. Many forces had been turned against them and were just waiting for the right time to launch a counterattack in cooperation with the Demonic Path.
Upon hearing this, Yao Guang's eyes shone brightly as he stared directly into the beautiful red eyes and said in a deep voice, "From this day forward, you will be my mole in the Demonic Path. Continue to lie low and do not reveal any unusual activity. Remember to report the latest developments of the Demonic Path to me from time to time."
"I will obey your command, young master!" Joy and determination intertwined on her rosy face. "From now on, everything I have belongs to you, young master. Whatever you command me to do, I will do." As she finished speaking, a subtle yet burning allure bloomed in the corner of her eye.
For some reason, she recalled the scene of her intimate moments with the young master, a moment she cherished most deeply.
