In the spiritual realm, it's still a bit lacking to defeat him.

Lu Ren stood up straight, exhaled slowly, and threw the arm in his hand away, staring at Kong Qiu.

"Speak, say what you want to say, if you make it good, I might spare your life."

He now understands that the ancients were gradually deified in history, and the incredible things they did in their pursuit of immortality.

Subodhi as well, Xu Fu as well, Kong Qiu too.

When one steps into extraordinary enlightenment, their life level leaps, and their mindset begins to change due to changes in perspective. As the exploration of awakening deepens, the life level constantly rises and breaks limits.

So then the perception of people around them might also have major problems due to the change in viewpoint.

In other words, as the ancients said, as strength becomes more powerful, maintaining one's true self will be an increasingly important issue.

"Hey!"

Realizing that he could no longer struggle, Kong Qiu looked at the calm-faced Lu Ren, whose aura was like a furnace, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

"I know what you're angry about, when you're in the mortal realm, and survival itself is a problem, while you want to advance further to seek truth, this physical and spiritual contradiction drives people crazy."

Understood.

This is probably people's pursuit of a good life, but the main contradiction is the imbalance and insufficiency of material reality.

And when the acquisition of material reality falls far short of self-maintenance, then to advance further, one can only start not being human.

Lu Ren even feels that from ancient times to the present, the entire history of human civilization's cultivation becomes darker the deeper it goes.

Grateful for the materially abundant modern society.

No wonder Ksitigarbha sees Subodhi as a demon, shows no favor to the Buddha Tathagata and sneers at the so-called True God.

No wonder to vow a grand wish.

Lu Ren pondered slightly, then shook his head, glancing at the faintly visible ancient buildings in the far distance.

Here, the Kunlun Exotic Realm has traces of human presence!

Surprising, yet as Lu Ren expected.

"If you return now... to the mortal realm you believe in, you'll probably regret it."

Kong Qiu sneered.

"Martial artists of my generation find survival in Kunlun, I will survive and find..."

Snap!

A light sound, Kong Qiu's head was twisted one hundred and eighty degrees, and Lu Ren didn't stop, directly tearing off the opponent's head.

Even if the brains were splattered everywhere he could still run, if truly extinguishing the opponent's vitality, with their extreme life force, they could absolutely survive.

Even Lu Ren's palm emitted irregularly fluctuating light from magnetic fields, and began clearing Kong Qiu's body, disrupting and tearing apart the opponent's magnetic field.

After Lu Ren's actions, a red light shot out from Kong Qiu's brow, which was promptly covered by Lu Ren with magnetic fields.

Kong Qiu growled.

"Lu Ren, you're going to exterminate me?!"

Lu Ren swallowed it in one gulp, subsequently his spiritual intent manifested the Fourth Earth Bodhisattva Statue, and a golden halo materialized behind his head, the Flame Wisdom Land burning around the perimeter of the circle of light.

"Ding, you have gained a deep understanding of the Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Bodhisattva Path and Lamp of Freedom, your Lamp of Freedom has been promoted."

"Ding, your Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Bodhisattva Path has been promoted, currently at a proficient stage. You have comprehended the complete Fourth Earth Bodhisattva Statue."

Huh, why is it still the Fourth Earth Bodhisattva Statue after the Bodhisattva Path's promotion?

Lu Ren understood upon thinking, it seems the level of the Ten Lands Great Accomplishment Golden Body Bodhisattva Path can upgrade to a very high level.

No wonder it's called True Skill.

"So when stepping into the elementary practice of 'Spring and Autumn', I wonder at what stage I can comprehend Kong Qiu's Overlord Body State."

At this point, Lu Ren directly dragged Kong Qiu's Yang God into his own inner realm.

When Kong Qiu realized this was Lu Ren's inner realm, he was initially stunned, then burst into mad laughter, his Yang God body radiating golden light, permeating the surroundings.

"Hahahahaha, boy, you actually dare, how dare you draw me into your inner realm, do you not know my meditation cultivation on the spiritual meditation path far surpasses yours, I will seize you, I will... huh?"

Kong Qiu's words abruptly stopped, then his brows knitted, his white hair wildly dancing, reaching the pinnacle of his Yang Spirit Form, yet there was still no reaction as if his entire inner realm was like a fluid state.

Kong Qiu released strong fluctuations with each Yan Spirit Form, like a falling boulder, yet the entire inner realm didn't even tremble.

"Ding, you've been subjected to Kong Qiu's (newborn state) spiritual intent attack, system determination... determination successful, automatically shielded completed."

"Ding, you've been subjected to Kong Qiu's (newborn state) spiritual intent attack, your spiritual proficiency has passively increased."

So, it is indeed so!

The tension between Lu Ren's brows relaxed, then with a slight thought, countless chains materialized in the inner realm, extending from the void, binding Kong Qiu tightly like Subodhi, suspended mid-air.

And Subodhi, who had been silent, watched all this with a smile, evidently quite pleased to have someone else appear in the inner realm.

After all, seeing a master with similar experiences brought a slight balance to his mindset.

Kong Qiu glared fiercely at Lu Ren, manifesting in the inner realm as the Fourth Earth Bodhisattva Statue, with a ferocious visage.

"What are you, really?"

"Just a person different from you, but indeed, a person."

Feeling the constant notifications of increased spiritual proficiency from the attacks assaulting his mind, Lu Ren responded with a hint of pleasure.

If he had the chance to capture ten or eight cultivators focused on Qi cultivation and spiritual meditation to put in his inner realm to generate power, wouldn't his spiritual proficiency soar?!

Turns out, he's suited for the path of spiritual cultivation!

Lu Ren was eager to try.

It's just that Subodhi recently wasn't exerting effort, and after finding he couldn't influence Lu Ren, he simply conserved his spirit.

But after entering the Bright Awakening Realm, Lu Ren's inner realm level also changed.

The inner realm, which is inherently the most secret, deepest part of oneself, the origin of consciousness.

Generally, such a place would never allow any other creature in, who would act like Lu Ren, dragging people in hard-heartedly, the inner realm naturally repels outsiders, and upon discovering foreign entities, would eliminate them immediately. Non-living things are okay, but such spirit bodies, if Lu Ren didn't give a friendly marker, would just have to endure.

And to resist such repulsion, Subodhi had to expend effort to fend off.

Somewhat like a power bank.

Listening to Kong Qiu's curses, repeatedly the same few phrases, Lu Ren felt a bit helpless.

Then he walked over, facing Kong Qiu, and began to curse back.

The heritage of the longstanding national art had Lu Ren spraying nearly five minutes of unrestrained cursing.

Kong Qiu's eyes turned red, breathing heavily.

"Lu Ren, I will kill you!"

Lu Ren shrugged.

"Very well, if you get another opportunity."

He sealed his voice with a word.

Circling around, everything was already a blur, seemingly endless.

As the surrounding mist gradually faded, the misty inner realm started to transform.

The forest, water paths, grassland, a beautiful landscape picture.

The fragrance of flowers and the sound of birds made a faint background.

The mystery of the inner realm has been passed down through history, only fragmentary and incomplete, aside from some random talk.

Beyond Bright Awakening Realm, it's gone.

Let alone the mysterious inner realm.
