Chapter 788: Chapter Eighty-Two: Ceiling

Just after Gong Shu finished explaining about the Four Imperial Spirit Seals, Martial Arts Grandmaster Tang Luo sentenced this technique to death, defining it as a heretical method.

The so-called heretical method is a path that cannot reach the end. It has nothing to do with difficulty because all paths will narrow as you progress, but the problem with heretical methods is that there is no path at the end.

Controlling spirits without controlling the mind, cultivating qi without cultivating the soul, means that you are not refining your nature or your life, relying on spiritual power and honoring battle power.

In ancient times, many held this belief. This wasn’t unique to the Four Imperial Spirit Seals. The first to propose this idea was an ancient sect – Tianren Sect. They believed that the physical body would eventually decay, and the soul would wither. Only by merging heaven and man to become one, could one achieve the lifespan of heaven and earth.

And then what happened? The Tianren Sect, which misled many ancient humans, eventually disappeared in the long river of history.

The beliefs of this sect were indeed attractive, but it’s as empty as saying that becoming a god will lead to immortality. It has a goal but no method, so there is no possibility of reaching it.

Late in ancient times, the Zen sect proposed a new idea that the physical body was nothing but a stinking skin bag and that the eternal vessel was the soul. To reach the other shore, one had to empower the soul, making it perfect without any leaks so that it could achieve immortality.

This idea seemed more reliable than the union of heaven and man. By using this argument, the ancient Zen sect gathered a large number of adherents.

And then what happened? In the dark ages, when even contemplating Bodhisattva was a struggle, the Zen sect’s heads were smashed by ancient body cultivators, and it often happened that a wandering body cultivator would step beyond their division to shatter an Arahant.
