Innate Dao Core (1)
In the crystal window, the girl clad in white trudged along the increasingly narrow and rugged path with the group of dense dark shadows behind her. It was a precarious walk, as if on a walkway hanging in the sky from which she might fall off at any time.
“Why not?”
Ming Yu Zhenjun asked curiously, but Cui Wang clammed up and did not answer.
Fu Sheng Zhenjun’s Buddhist’s beads passed through his fingers speedily. He sang a Buddhist hymn, saying, “Man is born with eight sufferings: birth, old age, sickness, death, separating from those we love, encountering those we resent, inability to obtain one’s desires, and the inability to let go. If one can’t let go of one’s delusions, or can’t rid oneself of one’s attachments, one will never obtain immortality and become a Buddha… Amitabha.”
The Tianluo School was a one that practiced Mahayana Buddhism, and the Nine Turnings of the Wheel Sutra emphasized upon one’s entrance and exit from the world. One had to be passionate when they entered the world, then be unbound and free when they left, otherwise, one was destined to be burdened by mortal encumberments.
Numerous disciples of various sects nodded in agreement.
“That’s true. What a pity, what a pity.”
They looked at the crystal window again and looked even more mournful. Such innate qualities, yet she couldn’t even let go of her obsessions… it was simply a waste, such a waste!
Cui Wang stood with his hands behind his back, remaining silent throughout.
The Zheng Wan in the crystal window didn’t feel sorry. It was just that in this darkness that had no visible end, countless Fathers and Mothers were trailing behind her as well as clustering around her, and she was about to be squeezed off the path.
Yet, in front of her, Liu Yi was still watching on with hostility.
Liu Yi yelled at her, “Still not killing?!”
“What does it matter to you?”
Zheng Wan found her baffling.
But Liu Yi suddenly moved.
Just as Zheng Wan put up her guard, Liu Yi suddenly stepped across her own path and came onto her path, and a fireball blasted straight out from her palm. Seeing that it was about to hit her parents, Zheng Wan abruptly cast an ice arrow. The ice arrow appeared without a sound and dispersed the fireball.
“What are you doing?”
“If you won’t kill, I’ll do it for you.”
The instant Liu Yi finished speaking, she sent a fireball behind her, blasting the “Cui Wang” behind her into dust.
“Are you crazy?” Zheng Wan looked at her strangely, “Give way.”
Based on her understanding, Liu Yi should have taken the opportunity to stab her in the heart or give her a fireball. After all, what she did to her in the past was indeed not very decent.
Instead, Liu Yi was attacking her parents. Zheng Wan recalled that in the Heavenly Realm, this was called “Heart Demon” and “Obsession”. If heart demons and obsessions were such lovely things, she never wanted to get rid of them.
“How laughable. That the lord would actually, actually……”

Liu Yi looked at the layers of “things” that were about to obliterate Zheng Wan. Of course, she recognised that they were the mortal realm’s high and mighty Senior Grand Secretary Zheng and his wife, but they were now a mass of filthy things, and Zheng Wan actually couldn’t bear to kill them.
She should’ve sneered scornfully at her, but there seemed to be a ball of anger lodged in her heart. Liu Yi raised her hand and sent three fireballs in an attempt to remove the filthy things.
Once they were removed, Zheng Wan would be just like her.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Wan actually took a step forward and stood directly before the oncoming fireballs. Her vital energy and spells were simply too weak; after one ice arrow was cast to block one fireball, she didn’t have any means to deal with the second and third fireball, and could only block them with her body——
Boom, boom——
Zheng Wan gave a muffled grunt, clutching her heart. She wiped away the blood from the corner of her mouth fiercely. Fortunately, a good idea occurred to her at the crucial moment; her ice arrow transformed into an ice shield and stopped the fireballs.
“I won’t allow you to touch my parents.”
“You’re crazy.”
Liu Yi looked at her as if looking at a madman.
Zheng Wan could no longer be bothered with her. She was being pushed ahead by the cluster of Fathers and Mothers behind her. After walking some distance, she suddenly stopped, sat down on the path cross-legged, not walking anymore.
The countless groups of black shadows stood dumbly to her left and right, neither moving nor making a fuss; their numbers grew, then grew and grew some more.
Liu Yi bit her lip and looked at her with a complicated expression. She turned her head to look at the lights of the village in the distance, then walked away without looking back.
On the other side of the crystal window, when the disciples of various sects saw this unexpected scene, they couldn’t help staring speechless at each other.
Even the Daojuns who were watching in secret were also shocked.
Such a situation was entirely unprecedented in the histories of both the cultivation of immortality and the cultivation of mystical arts.
Since ancient times, there were those who killed wives, sons, and daughters to gain enlightenment, but none had ever seen any cultivator who would stop in their tracks and quit their journey, ceasing to continue exploring because of a mere illusion…
“Her mortal heart weighs too much, way too much.”
Jing Su Daojun said with sorrow, “Since she has gone against the Heavens and changed her fate, she should treasure this opportunity, but why is she being so, so… foolishly obstinate, how foolishly obstinate.”
Tian He Daojun practised the Way of Impassiveness, and acted unencumbered by emotions; naturally, he could understand her actions even less.
Instead, it was the goose-yellow shirted male cultivator who began tapping rhythmically on the table, “This little cultivator should cultivate in the miles of mortal dust. If she wants to enter my Yu Qing school, it’s also possible.”
Right at this moment,
