Ancient Godly Monarch

Qin Wentian felt like his head was anointed with the purest cream after he heard the white-robed young man’s words. At this moment, he understood many questions which puzzled him before.

Jian Junlai had the title of Sword Monarch but this wasn’t because he was proficient in sword arts. Rather, the sword was his dao. As for Heaven’s Son Qin Dangtian, when he fought, he was surrounded by ancient characters which contained different types of daos. He acted as the intermediary to tap on the power of the different daos.

Also, there were a multitude of innate techniques in the world. In the hands of different cultivators, these techniques would be transformed differently in accordance to their dao because of the different comprehensions each cultivator have. They were only borrowing innate techniques and secret arts as a bridge to display the power of the great dao.

A world in a flower petal. Even a single petal can contain heavenly dao. Since this was the case, why can’t the multitude of living things in the world contain the dao? As long as one was strong enough, everything in heaven and earth could be used by them.

Humans were then the source of the great dao.

A truly powerful person didn’t need to threaten others by purposely releasing dao might. For example, this young man in white just casually sat before him and already appeared like he was the source of the great dao. With a lift of his finger, he could use the heavenly dao as he wished. He, was the dao. This should be the true pinnacle of cultivation, right?

“You cultivate the source origins of laws, fusing them together to form your dao. However, the great dao comes in a myriad of forms, even for similar source origins, their fusions would result in different daos. You have to break your line of thinking and don’t be limited by what others achieved before you. If not, how can you walk your own path?” The white-robed young man continued. “In addition, even if someone has only comprehended a single source origin, that too, can become the dao. And as for you, when you can reverse time and know the past and future, is that the limit of your dao then? What is the dao? You cultivated the laws of time, of space, of sealing. I saw you using time stop, life stop, these are all ways to apply the dao. However, all of these are what people before you have thought up. There are so many other ways to apply your dao, don’t be restricted in your thinking by methods of the ancients. Let me give you an example and it will hopefully spark an insight. Time, can also be twisted, or stacked upon each other via different layers. You can trap someone within the twisting flows of time, rendering them lost forever in the great river of time.”

Qin Wentian’s heart trembled. He once cultivated in the World of Ten Thousand Laws and comprehended many heavenheart mandates. But now that he thought back about it, his thinking was audacious enough. These casual words by the young man in white had sparked many thoughts which he didn’t dare to imagine before.

Everything was just a way to apply the energy of laws. His earlier thoughts were powerful no doubt, but that belonged to something commonly scene. He didn’t jump out of the box, he didn’t dare to have a bolder imagination.

When humans reached a certain cultivation realm, their thinking would experience a change. Even the ancient wills of the heavenly deities have not given him such guidance. From this, one could tell that the cultivation base of this young man in white far surpassed heavenly deities. Maybe, in his eyes, ordinary heavenly deities were nothing but mortals.

The two of them continued to chat about the heavenly dao and about laws. Qin Wentian spent the majority of time quietly listening and he would occasionally ask some questions. He knew that such an opportunity was extremely rare. The beautiful maidens around the young man in white quietly watched everything. Their gazes when they stared at Qin Wentian, was like looking like a junior from their family. That fellow, the young man in white, it has been many years since he guided someone so thoroughly. Seems like this Qin Wentian truly matched his taste. Maybe, it was because their personalities were similar.

Once, how much had he suffered and how many storms had he experienced before he reached this point? Only these maidens knew clearly in their hearts. However, this young man in white still guarded his original heart before he ascended to the peak. Now, he toured the different worlds and brought them along with him.

Unknowingly, much time passed. Qin Wentian seemed to have entered a state of meditation and was in the process of enlightenment. He forgot about the passing of time, the young man in white also gradually vanished along with the beautiful maidens.

Only after a long time did Qin Wentian open his eyes. Several ancient words drifted around him, transforming into halos of resplendent light. At the instant his eyes opened, these ancient words entered his mind. Qin Wentian could sense their intent. After that, he drew in a deep breath and bowed to the empty space before him as he mumbled, “Senior, when can we meet again?”

“When you ascend to the absolute peak, standing at a lofty position and looking down at the view of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, we might be able to meet again then.” An ethereal voice rang out from the void. After that, Qin Wentian only felt a wondrous energy sending him out from this space. The majestic saint palace vanished all of a sudden and the phenomenom in the sky transformed. It felt like time was being reversed. Qin Wentian was then brought out from this space to the world of reincarnation.

When Qin Wentian appeared once again, many people also appeared around him. These were all the experts who entered the world of reincarnation.

Qin Wentian’s gaze turned over like he was searching for something. Very soon, he saw a beautiful figure. Luoshen Lei.

“Lei`er!” Qin Wentian’s silhouette flashed as he rushed towards Luoshen Lei. The Luoshen Lei at this moment was in a dumbstruck state. She stared at Qin Wentian before her as well as Grandpa Lifeless beside her and felt like she was stuck in a dream. However, this dream was so clear and so real.

Her eyes instantly reddened as tears flowed. She had experienced many years in the world of reincarnation, it was like another lifetime to her. Everything she went through here was still clear in her mind. She was betrayed and abandoned by the people from the Luoshen Clan, she harmed Grand Lifeless, she cultivated an evil art, and implicate her elder brother. All of this happened in this world. Now, those scenes felt like just a nightmare. Have things finally ended?

“Elder brother, Grandpa Lifeless!” Luoshen Lei called, her voice was so shaky that it would cause one’s heart to break. Qin Wentian walked up and lightly pulled her into his embrace. He smiled, “Lei`er, everything has ended.”

The reincarnation was reversed, everything went back to the beginning. The only thing that didn’t disappear was their memories of this world. Everything they experienced was clearly etched in their minds. Maybe, this was the true purpose of the world of reincarnation, to aid people to find their true selves, seeing themselves and their original hearts clearly.

Regardless of whether they were kind or evil, everything was revealed in this world. This knowledge would greatly benefit their future cultivation.

“I’m still alive.” Not only was Luoshen Lei still alive, everyone from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms who died in the world of reincarnation were alive. Naturally, this included Yue Changkong. But very soon later, Yue Changkong’s face turned pale as fear flashed across his face. Because he saw his martial uncle and the two senior brothers of the Ziwei Divine Court walking towards him, their eyes flashing with killing intent.

“Martial uncle, senior brothers, I was also forced to do so. My heart was corrupted by the evil spirit, it wasn’t my original intention.” Yue Changkong spoke. However, his heart was ice cold, he still wanted their lives. After experiencing the world of reincarnation, his personality has also changed. The him now was the real him.

“So that’s the case. Seems like I should forgive you?” His martial uncle coldly laughed. Yue Changkong actually used them as nutrients. Although the influence from the evil arts had some effect, this was only partial. Yue Changkong’s heart must have already had that base desire to kill them all.

The expressions of the three experts from the Qin Clan drastically changed. Their gazes had hints of wariness when they stared at Goddess Nichang and the Mystical Maiden. Upon seeing the unfriendly gaze Lin Xiao shot him, their hearts grew cold. They had already died once, there was nothing to fear. They were people from the Qin Clan and after they left here, it wouldn’t be an easy task even if Lin Xiao wanted to act against them. Now, they were thinking of how they should explain things to Qin Dangtian. If Goddess Nichang told Qin Dangtian about this, their endings would be extremely dire.

The few of them transmitted their voices to each other, thinking of a solution. But very swiftly after, their gazes landed on Qin Wentian. He shall be their out, Qin Wentian, the son of Qin Yuanfeng.

Che Ying, the supreme expert from the Che Clan, as well as Gui Chen from the Prison God Clan and Han Shan from the God Destroying Palace. They didn’t really feel any fear. Since they had entered the world of reincarnation, that place could simply be considered a trial where the geniuses contended against each other. After exiting, could it be that the incidents which happened within would cause a war among deity-ranked peak powers out here in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms?

Only Yue Changkong and the Qin Clan’s experts were truly frightened. Because, they even acted against those of their own clan and sect. This was simply unforgivable.

Naturally, Luoshen Lei also had a grim expression in her eyes when she stared at the two clan members of hers. This time in the world of reincarnation, their relationship has been completely broken off. Most probably, an internal storm would arise once they went back to the Luoshen Clan.

Reverend Seven Abstinences from the Pureland of Bliss in the Western Paradise of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms pressed his palms together. Has everything concluded? No. This is just the beginning. Right now, their cultivation bases were restored to what they were originally. However, they had an additional lifetime worth of comprehensions. All these insights they gained were real and could be used to raise their cultivation base. Also, when in the world of reincarnation, he obtained a true and even more profound buddha art.

It was just that he still had a question on his mind. Who was the one who entered the legendary place?

That voice that rang out across the sky, who was it speaking to?

“I wonder who was it that entered the ancient palace in the sky, gaining access to the true legendary place.” Seven Abstinences asked out loud. The eyes of everyone flashed as they glanced at their surroundings. No one spoke. Goddess Nichang cast a glance in Qin Wentian’s direction. Only Qin Wentian and herself knew who was the one who entered the true legendary place.

“Since no one is going to reply, let’s settle all our grudges after we get out of here. We have been in the world of reincarnation for too many years, I wonder how much time has passed in the outside world.” Seven Abstinences continued. Everyone nodded and started to head out. The three experts from the Ziwei Divine Court were still staring at Yue Changkong, as though they were afraid that he might escape. Qin Wentian’s hatred for Yue Changkong and the Qin Clan’s expert still existed but he wasn’t in a hurry to deal with them. Right now, Yue Changkong would find it hard to escape from the calamity even if he didn’t act.

His gaze then turned to Goddess Nichang. She who had saved him in this world, was as holy as ever, her beauty unprofanable. She acted like she didn’t know him and didn’t cast a glance at him.

“Thank you.” Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to Goddess Nichang. Goddess Nichang’s expression was as calm as ever and she didn’t reply. The group of them then departed through a spatial gate which appeared, signifying that they truly stepped out of this world of reincarnation and returned to the external world, inside the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy.

Everyone felt like things in the external world happened a lifetime ago. Life was like a dream. Their time in the world of reincarnation was truly surreal!
