Chapter 726: True Self, Return to the Divine Realm (2)

This was because he had thought of a key point just now, which was Xiao Yaozi.
Xiao Yaozi was an expert of his true self and had even surpassed his true self. Would such a person reincarnate with the Divine Realm?
If the divine realm had cycled countless times, didn’t that mean that Xiao Yaozi had also come to the Divine Realm countless times? Therefore, this was impossible.
“Don’t lie to yourself. Xiao Yaozi is nothing but a lie. This person doesn’t even exist.”
“Yes, join us. As long as we don’t go back, the divine realm’s cycle won’t affect us.”
“That’s right. As long as we join forces, we can eventually achieve our true selves. By then, we might even be able to go back and end the cycle of reincarnation.”
Those Lin Fengs spoke one after another, their voices filled with temptation.
However, Lin Feng coldly looked at them, the Pure Jun Sword suddenly appearing in his hand. With a swift stroke, he directly killed one of the Lin Fengs.
“If I join you, that would be a real disaster. I won’t escape; I will go back. I can definitely end this cycle!”
“No, you can’t. Don’t bother.”
“Do you know why Xiao Yaozi doesn’t help the divine realm? For him, it’s just a matter of lifting a finger, yet he doesn’t intervene to kill the Demon Lord. It’s because even a true powerhouse like him can’t end this cycle.”
Those Lin Fengs continued to persuade, and even more Lin Fengs were coming from afar in the Chaos.
But Lin Feng didn’t stop; instead, he brandished the Pure Jun Sword and crazily killed them.
“Die, all of you! Don’t try to shake me. I can change everything, I can!”
In the far distance, an old Daoist on a young man, exuding an immortal aura, frowned slightly as he watched Lin Feng.
Around him, the Chaos retreated and formed a world of its own. Clearly, he was also a true self expert!
“Conquering the Heart Demon, entering the true self? Quite rare,” the old man smiled slightly, but he didn’t approach Lin Feng.
In his eyes, Lin Feng was just a person swinging his sword in the chaos, without any other Lin Fengs.
But the old man also knew that this was the process of achieving the true self, as he had gone through it himself.
In the Chaos, even true self experts were rare, so even though he was already a true self, witnessing others achieve the Dao was still a supplement to himself.
“Unfortunately, this alone is not enough.” The old man shook his head gently and sighed.
But he had no intention of helping Lin Feng at this point. At this stage, the
assistance of others was useless; only firm determination could lead to success.
So, the old man watched as Lin Feng continued to swing his sword in the chaos. After who knew how long, Lin Feng, panting heavily, finally stopped.
“Is it done, finished? It’s truly… unbelievable!” The old man, seeing this scene, couldn’t help but show a hint of surprise.
In Lin Feng’s eyes, there were indeed no other Lin Fengs. Those inner demons had all been killed by him!
“Finally, it’s over. I told you, there couldn’t be countless versions of me. They were all killed by me, hehehe.” Lin Feng smiled a little sickly.
Afterward, a mysterious aura gradually emanated from him, but he was still a bit short of the true self.
Lin Feng knew what was lacking.
At the same time, he knew that this step had to be taken.
So, he no longer hesitated. Within his body, the three realms instantly boiled, all reaching the peak of the God realm.
And precisely at this step, Lin Feng began to step into the true self.
Either assimilate with the Great Dao or achieve the true self, Lin Feng had no other choice.
Without achieving the true self, he couldn’t go back. Even if he went back, he couldn’t change anything. Only by becoming the true self did Lin Feng have a chance.
Just now, after he severed his mental demon, his Dao heart became even more firm, ensuring that even if he took this step, he wouldn’t be assimilated by the Great Dao.
Finally, Lin Feng was enveloped by a radiant light, as if turning into a cocoon. Even the surrounding chaos was dispelled by the light.
Later, the cocoon of light broke open, and Lin Feng took a step forward, achieving the true self!
“Is it necessary to stay away from the divine realm to achieve the true self? Is this the method of Qianye Yuan, and also the scheme of Fuxi?” Lin Feng muttered to himself.
No wonder the remnants of Fuxi’s soul became the Azure Thearch and, unwilling to let go, contributed to history. Because without those historical events, Lin Feng wouldn’t have returned to the past and eventually fought against the Demon Lord, ending up in the chaos.
Only by leaving the divine realm could the people of the divine realm temporarily avoid the influence of the divine realm’s cycle and achieve the true self.
Unfortunately, this was still only a pseudo-true self, just like Qianye Yuan. To truly achieve it, one must end the divine realm’s cycle!
“Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on achieving the true self!” The old man on the back of the green bull arched his hand from afar.
Lin Feng also arched his hand in return. At this moment, even though the radiant light around him had subsided, a realm had formed around him, self-contained.
This was the true self—without relying on the Yin-Yang Bagua Diagram, he could still form his own realm!
“I dare not accept the praise; it’s just a pseudo-true self,” Lin Feng said with a bitter smile.
The old man lightly laughed and shook his head. “Fellow Daoist, don’t belittle yourself. Observing you, a realm is formed within, containing myriad paths. Even though it’s just a temporary pseudo-true self, it’s nothing more than a brief pause for you.”
Lin Feng neither agreed nor disagreed, and just shook his head. “This method was not created by me but left by a predecessor. Unfortunately, he himself did not achieve the true self. Instead, he sank into the cycle of reincarnation for my sake..”
