Chapter 370: The Art of Uniting All Hearts!

[Ranked Eighth on the Technique List Reward: The Art of Uniting All Hearts]

[This technique allows the power of avatars to directly merge into the main body, greatly enhancing its strength!]

This is yet another rare technique in the Primordial World, with an exceptionally unique effect. Upon seeing it, Laozi immediately had thoughts about its potential. It's well-known across the Primordial Realm that his Three Pure Ones from One Qi is one of his most powerful techniques.

Three identical avatars already allow him to take on multiple opponents, making him incredibly formidable. However, if he were to acquire this technique, his strength would skyrocket even further.

The power of three avatars, each as strong as himself, merging back into his body would mean a direct tripling of his strength—something he could never achieve through cultivation alone.

However, despite the potential of this technique, Laozi wasn't particularly elated. Compared to what Tongtian Jiaozhu had received, this technique seemed far less impressive. While it could increase his strength, it wouldn't help him break through to the next realm. Under normal circumstances, Laozi would have been thrilled to obtain such a technique.

But others didn't know Laozi's inner thoughts. They assumed he'd be delighted by this reward, as it was already quite exceptional compared to most others. At the very least, unlike his previous reward, it didn't come with the risk of reducing his own strength.

[Sun Wukong: If this technique is truly so powerful, imagine if someone had a million avatars. The combined strength would be unimaginable! It might even be too much for the Primordial World to handle!]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: It's not as simple as you make it sound. Even if someone could create avatars, each one would likely only carry a fraction—perhaps one-thousandth—of the original's power. Even when combined, the total increase wouldn't be significant. Besides, who could create a million avatars?]

[Lüya: Laozi's Three Pure Ones from One Qi is indeed formidable, but I believe Ye Tian's Nine Shadow Clone Technique would be the perfect match for this technique. It's just a pity that Ye Tian didn't get this reward. Otherwise, his strength would have increased immensely!]

Ye Tian, however, didn't feel any regret. He had acquired the Nine Shadow Clone Technique later on, and the quantity and quality of his rewards were already exceptional. A little contentment was a good thing.

Although this technique seemed powerful, it undoubtedly had its limitations. A Saint might be able to use it without hindrance, but the power of a Heavenly Path Saint was too overwhelming for such a technique to be applied without restrictions.

If there truly were no limitations, Ye Tian's power would have become unimaginably terrifying—a scenario that simply couldn't occur.

This was precisely why this reward had been given to Laozi. For a Saint at Laozi's level, the technique was highly suitable.

[Yuanshi Tianzun: The rewards on this list seem to improve as the rankings progress. The eighth-place reward is already incredibly rare and powerful!]

[Laozi: This technique is highly suitable for me, but it would likely be of little use to others.]

[Zhunti: Indeed, without a technique like Three Pure Ones from One Qi, others wouldn't gain much power from this technique.]

[Nuwa: Well then, I suppose the next reward might be something even better!]

Laozi didn't respond further because he couldn't be certain whether to choose this reward. The rewards were indeed getting better and better, and no one knew if the second reward might surpass the first.

In past instances, the first reward often seemed rare and precious, but the second one turned out to be even more valuable.

Moreover, Laozi's mood at the moment made it difficult for him to feel joy, even when presented with such a powerful technique.

Just as everyone's anticipation reached its peak, the second reward was revealed.

[Ranked Eighth on the Technique List Reward: The Crimson Demon Mirror]

[This mirror reveals a person's deepest desires, magnifying them tenfold or even a hundredfold until the individual is consumed by their own inner demons!]

This was yet another chaotic spirit treasure, though its use was highly unconventional. It didn't directly harm others but was nonetheless extraordinarily powerful.

The Crimson Demon Mirror could affect even Saints to some degree, and for those below the Saint realm, it could target countless individuals.

Inner demons are among the most difficult forces to control. The stronger a person is, the more they must rid themselves of emotions and desires. After reaching the level of a Heavenly Path Saint, one must be completely devoid of emotions, achieving a state of calm and stillness. This ensures that no heart demons or evil thoughts can invade.

However, the mirror's power lies in its ability to amplify even the slightest trace of malice, expanding it endlessly until it destroys the victim.

This treasure is undoubtedly powerful. It could even pose a threat to Saints, but it's also highly situational. A minor deity with unwavering determination could resist its effects, while a powerful being with unresolved inner conflicts could fall into its trap.

As the saying goes: "One thought leads to enlightenment; another leads to damnation." This duality applies to everyone.

[Ancestor Minghe: To think such a powerful treasure would appear! The rewards are indeed getting better!]

Minghe's reaction stemmed from guilt and fear. Most treasures didn't threaten him, but the Crimson Demon Mirror posed a significant danger.

His Blood Sea was one of the most polluted places in the Primordial World—perhaps even more so than the 18 levels of hell. The constant exposure to such corruption made it impossible for him to maintain complete purity.

If the Crimson Demon Mirror were to shine upon him, it might ignite the many wicked thoughts buried within his heart.

This treasure was his greatest bane and something he dreaded encountering.

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: This item only harms those with impure hearts. If one's mind and soul are pure, it poses no threat.]

[Haotian Jade Emperor: But how many in the Primordial World can truly maintain such a state? The Crimson Demon Mirror will affect the vast majority.]

[Luya: However, in the hands of a Saint, this treasure might not have much opportunity to shine. Against someone of equal standing, they likely wouldn't allow themselves to be exposed to its effects.]

The unique nature of this treasure made it most effective as a tool of ambush.

Even a Quasi-Saint could respond quickly enough to avoid being affected when the mirror was used, employing countless methods to prevent exposure. This made it unlikely for the mirror to decide the outcome of a battle.

Additionally, the Crimson Demon Mirror required time to take effect. It couldn't immediately dominate a fight, nor could it provide an instant advantage in combat.
