Chapter 1849 Progression Of The Nine Divine Heart Sutras

After learning about the Third Level of the Calming Heart sutra, Xukong could figure out a few more things. But before he spoke about it, he asked for more details.

"What other effects do the third level have now? It shouldn't just be you not needing to chant verbally, right?" Xukong questioned.

"You are right, Senior. In addition to that, the effects of the Calming Heart Sutra are also stronger. Almost twice as strong." Lin Mu answered.

"That is a good increase." Xukong nodded.

A doubling of the effects was decent. After all, the stronger Lin Mu was, the better the effects of the sutra became. Now it had basically jumped to a stage which would take Lin Mu a long time to replicate just through his sheer cultivation base.

Plus Xukong reckoned there might be more things that they'll discover in the future with it.

"Indeed." Lin Mu agreed. "It'll help me in situations where I am physically restrained or paralyzed." He suddenly recalled the time when he had been trapped by the elder of the Northern Tribes back in the Xiao Fan world.

He was unable to move or use qi and it was the Burning Heart Sutra that had gotten him out.

'I was still able to chant back then, but if I'm unable to speak too, I'll be in a great threat.' Lin Mu thought.

Of course, he knew that the Calming Heart Sutra did not have the offensive power like the Burning Heart Sutra that could allow him to get out of a treacherous situation.

But it was still a start for him.

"Hmm… Since the third stage of Internal Resonance only allows you to affect yourself, I'm thinking the fourth stage would allow you to use it on others without chanting. Similar to the Second stage if we assume the same progression." Xukong finally stated.

"That does seem like it." Lin Mu was in agreement. "But the only question is how do I progress it again. Not just for the Calming Heart Sutra but also the other four Sutras." He expressed in doubts.

Xukong went silent for a bit before finally speaking.

"If we think about it, what is something that affected you which could have caused this progress all of a sudden?" Xukong proposed a question to Lin Mu first.

That was enough for Lin Mu to think about his recent recovery through the use of a Buddhist technique.

"Of course! The Serene Lotus Buddhist Veil!" Lin Mu explained.

"Exactly!" Xukong confirmed making Lin Mu's train of thought run further.

The cogs in his brain worked fast and quickly figured out a few possibilities.

"Since the first and second stages of the Calming Heart Sutra were obtained by some sort of self realization, it looks like the third stage and onwards might need external interference too." Lin Mu muttered.

"You were exposed to Buddhist energies and were basically baptized by them earlier which was triggered by the chanting of the Calming Heart Sutra. Perhaps it was the condition that was needed for you to progress in the next stage." Xukong explained.

"If it is like this, then I'll need to experience something similar that matches the other Sutras." Lin Mu guessed.

"True. But that is the complex thing… for Calming Heart Sutra that is of the Buddhist path, you progressed it through the baptism. The same would not work for the others." Xukong said, arousing more thoughts in Lin Mu's mind.

'For the Severing Heart Sutra, the most obvious method to progress it seems to further improve my Sword Intent. Perhaps if I experience a strong Sword Intent from another person I might just be able to progress to the next stage.' Lin Mu had already figured out the method for the second sutra.

This was something even Xukong could figure out, but for the Burning Heart Sutra onwards, things were not the same.

"Stuck on the Burning Heart Sutra?" Xukong inquired seeing Lin Mu's expression.

"Yes… I don't know what exactly I would need for it, but it should be something to do with the Demon Race." Lin Mu presented his thoughts.

"That seems about right. Meeting the Demons might just give you the right option or at least point you to it." Xukong suggested hearing him.

"Hmm… Demons huh…" Lin Mu knew that not all demons were unreasonable, but there was still the issue of actually getting to them and then obtaining information from them.

Of course, the location of the demons was something Lin Mu wouldn't have a hard time finding. Xukong knew several of them and he could also utilize the Cross World Teleportation Array to get to them, which would become possible once he won the Tournament.

But after the Burning Heart Sutra was the Nurturing Heart Sutra. It was the sutra that had progressed the fastest for Lin Mu as he had reached the second stage very soon after obtaining it.

It was also the most passive one, as all provided was Beast qi for others.

'To progress it I guess I just spend more time with beasts? Or do I learn form them somehow?' Lin Mu didn't have much idea for this.

Finally there was the Murdering Heart Sutra.

Lin Mu actually reckoned that this might be an easier one to progress as he would need to experience something from the Devil path or meet the Devils themselves.

But it was also the most dangerous as Devils weren't reasonable. They also fought against each other and didn't really care much. Their entire goal for existence was the destruction of life in the first place!

This was just for 5 of the Sutras that he had learned so far. There was no telling what path the remaining 4 Sutras of the Nine Divine Heart Sutras would be like.

~sigh~

"Looks like I have a long way to go…" Lin Mu muttered to himself as he let out a sigh.

"You don't have to worry. The one thing you have an abundance of is time. I reckon you just need to explore the realm, walk upon the worlds and you'll grasp it naturally." Xukong advised.
