I Come to Teach You Cultivation

Chapter 607: Chapter 8: 24 Dharma Protector Gods

They took the cable car straight up to Putuo Mountain.

Only then did Li Boyang notice that this seemingly crude haul rope actually contained far more metal than similar products in his previous life.

Not to mention that the cable car itself was plastered with Talisman of Light Body and Featherfall.

The weight of just a few people couldn’t possibly add much burden to the rope.

Just the rope material alone was a high-strength electromagnetic material that Ying Long had only developed in recent years.

Honestly speaking, back on Earth in his previous life, using this kind of material for cable cars would’ve been downright wasteful.

But in this Mythical Era where people can literally throw bricks with brute force, Ying Long created this kind of high-strength electromagnetic material purely for his own cultivation, so he didn’t feel it was all that precious.

As long as Miaoshan could get the price right, she could have Ying Long electromagnetize the whole of Putuo Mountain.

This is the power of the Gods, and also the most efficient way Divine Techniques and Spell are utilized in this era.

On Earth in Li Boyang’s previous life, materials science was the key factor limiting scientific progress.

Yet in this Mythical Era, all kinds of Divine Power and Spell are the key factors limiting scientific progress.

Painstakingly researching various material technologies and their widespread application.

Is far less efficient than directly using Divine Power and Spell to create whatever environment and materials you want—this is the true, literal "brute force brick-flinging."

Of course, this approach has its upsides and downsides.

But from Li Boyang’s point of view, it means his enlightenment and intellectual awakening of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range have already yielded some results.

Besides, what’s the essential difference between painstakingly studying the technical applications of various materials, and painstakingly studying how to use all sorts of Divine Power and Spell to create new materials?

Both are forms of progressive application of one’s own capability and wisdom.

"That’s the school over there, right?"

Just then, Xiluo suddenly lifted her head and looked toward a massive complex halfway up Putuo Mountain, asking.

Neatly leveled and complete building construction...

Highly functional architectural planning...

Plus those uniform large-character slogans...

It was obvious that that complex was Putuo Mountain’s Alien Race school.

And judging from the school’s scale and land area, it was a very rare integrated school that combined elementary, middle, and university levels.

"The ambition is pretty big. I just don’t know how their teaching ability is."

Hearing Xiluo’s undisguised mockery, Li Boyang likewise turned his gaze toward that school.

Then, as if he sensed Xiluo and Li Boyang’s gaze.

At the highest point of that school.

A God with a stern face and a third eye in his forehead suddenly lifted his head and looked in the direction of the cable car.

That was a God Miaoshan had subdued, specifically in charge of guarding this school.

Unfortunately, though this God possessed keen perception, he still couldn’t see through Xiluo and Li Boyang’s whereabouts.

So he merely swept his gaze around with knitted brows, his heart full of confusion.

"Huh?"

Also noticing that God’s sweeping gaze, Xiluo immediately showed a hint of surprise and doubt.

"A Celestial Being?"

"Wait, something’s off."

"That guy actually has the dual identity of both God and Celestial Being?"

The Celestial Beings are the foremost of the Eight Divisions of the Six Desire Heavens, and the direct embodiment of the desire for power among all beings.

Right now, the strongest Celestial Being in the Six Desire Heavens—Di Shitian—is the incarnation of Zhuang Zhou, and he’s currently in the process of unifying Toli Heaven.

Precisely because of this, the Six Desire Heavens have been wracked by constant warfare in recent years, and the Eight Divisions each have their own allegiances.

Take the recently rising Asura for example.

Under the leadership of their own lord—Ketu—they’re counterattacking the Celestial Beings, claiming they’ll become the true rulers of Toli Heaven.

Yet although Ketu’s ambition is vast, his strength doesn’t match that ambition.

Di Shitian didn’t even have to act personally; his strongest subordinate, Garuda, successfully captured Ketu alive.

If the succeeding Asura King, Sanzhi, hadn’t been forceful enough in his conduct, chances are that by now the Asura Race would already have become one of Di Shitian’s fierce generals.

Even so, the war between the Celestial Beings and the Asura still continues to affect the situation in Toli Heaven.

Even those All Buddhas and Bodhisattva in Yama Heaven who devote themselves to chanting scriptures can’t help but pay attention to this war that’s destined to have far-reaching impact.

"He tamed his own Heart Demon, that’s why he possesses the identity of a Celestial Being."

Hearing this, the surprise on Xiluo’s face deepened.

"Tamed his Heart Demon? How is that possible?"

In the Six Desire Heavens as they exist now, Xiluo has a Heart Demon that belongs only to herself, the one outsiders know as the Queen Mother of the West.

Precisely because of this, Xiluo understands better than anyone how difficult it is to tame a Heart Demon.

To this day, even though the Queen Mother of the West of the Six Desire Heavens is Xiluo’s incarnation, she still finds it hard to truly command her.

Because that incarnation is saturated with the desire to annihilate the Gods.

Never mind commanding her—Xiluo even feels that merely entering into that Heart Demon carries the risk of being influenced by it.

What’s more, the Queen Mother of the West of the Six Desire Heavens only came into being as a Demon King due to various special reasons.

Ordinary Gods and Cultivator don’t have that kind of opportunity.

In other words, the prerequisite for taming one’s own Heart Demon is that you must first find your own Heart Demon.

Yet the Demon Kings of the Six Desire Heavens are all formed from the desires of all beings.

How could they possibly allow mortals to separate their desires from within themselves?

From any angle you look at it, that God being able to tame his Heart Demon is an inconceivable matter.

"Then we’ll have to ask Miaoshan about it."

With Li Boyang’s faint smile, the cable car finally arrived at the terminal station.

This was the highest peak of Putuo Mountain; the other cable cars traveling alongside them had already let their passengers off midway, and in the end only Xiluo and Li Boyang reached this terminal.

In front of this terminal, there was only a particularly eye-catching Purple Bamboo Forest.

Compared to the crude Purple Bamboo Forest of three years ago, the one now at the mountain summit was exceptionally lush.

This lushness wasn’t just in the fact that these Purple Bamboo were far thicker than those elsewhere.

It was also because these Purple Bamboo had induced changes in the Earth Vein Primordial Qi of the entire Putuo Mountain region, causing a certain wondrous rhythm to arise at this junction of sea and land.

"Those... are actually all Gods?"

Staring in shock at the figures faintly emerging within the Purple Bamboo Forest, Xiluo was genuinely stunned this time.

Within a small Purple Bamboo Forest, there were actually more than ten Gods.

That density of Gods was extremely rare even in the most prosperous Gaotun Village of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

What’s more, the Gods in this Purple Bamboo Forest, like the God from earlier, all simultaneously possessed the dual identity of both Gods and members of the Eight Divisions.

This meant that they had also found and tamed their own Heart Demon.

"The Miaoshan you keep talking about... is she really the same Miaoshan I know?"

"In my impression, she’s just a God who isn’t all that remarkable, right?"

"Even when she took part in the Longevity Assembly back then, all she did was eat a Flat Peach and then leave!"
