Chapter 1885: The Karmic Causality of Empress Yao Xi!

In the dojo, qi surged to heaven and earth.

Qi Chun Jing's cultivation began to surge uncontrollably.

Seven-star Dao Transformation Realm!

Eight-star Dao Transformation Realm!

Finally it stopped at the Nine-star Dao Transformation Realm!

This was because I borrowed Cui Shan's power just now, producing resonance and gaining a large amount of cultivation feedback.

Cui Shan smiled, "Fellow Daoist Qi Chun Jing, your talent is astonishing; our Conservancy Academy has many top-tier sage Dao teachings—why not give you some pointers?"

Qi Chun Jing bowed with clasped hands, "Pointers are too grand; I would merely like to learn."

Cui Shan invited, "Then how about now? I think if Master Qi can inherit our Conservancy Academy's Confucian Dao, my teacher Fang Qian Shan would surely be delighted."

He was sincere.

Not to mention that Qi Chun Jing is Lu Zunzhu's disciple; even with his heaven-defying talent, having comprehended the terrifying innate character 'person,' he must surely be able to reach the realm that makes him look up.

Letting Qi Chun Jing comprehend the Conservancy Academy's 'Dao' is their honor.

He is now very curious about how deeply Qi Chun Jing can comprehend it.

"Good."

Qi Chun Jing nodded.

Not long after, Cui Shan led Qi Chun Jing into the Conservancy Academy's inheritance grounds.

"Chi chi chi!"

This is an extremely vast dojo, located amidst a brilliant starry sky.

There are many stars.

But they are not true stars.

Rather, they are manifestations derived from the inheritances of ancient great scholars.

Know that at its peak, the Canghai Empire was far stronger than the Chixiao Divine Kingdom.

Qi Chun Jing gazed ahead; the stars here actually numbered in the hundreds.

Each inheritance is at the Dao Fruit Stage or above.

Extremely terrifying!

The Dao Resonance of these inheritances varies—some advocate 'human nature is good,' some 'human nature is evil,' some propose the heavenly Dao 'killing line,' some have realized the ultimate truth 'heaven and earth are not benevolent,' …

There is also a lineage whose aura is extremely similar to that on Cui Shan.

Obviously it is the 'Conservancy' lineage transmitted by Cui Shan and Fang Qian Shan.

To defend and wait, strike after the enemy… this is the core of that lineage.

Cui Shan's eyes showed emotion, "In the Remnant Universe, our Hundred Schools Academy was once extremely powerful; our Conservancy Lineage was merely one of its transmissions."

"But in that great war, countless enemies invaded, and we fell into a cycle of life and death with them."

"Now many transmissions have disappeared. Those ancient sages entered the fray themselves, resisting the Qi Clan and the Gu Clan…"

"Now the academy has declined, leaving only the Conservancy Lineage."

"Do you know what is most terrifying about the cycle?"

Qi Chun Jing shook his head to indicate he did not know.

Cui Shan said, "The cycle will wash over a person like a baptism, constantly impacting them—not only cultivation, but also Dao Resonance, comprehension, flesh, and soul."

"A person will become ever weaker, even their obsession will be swept away."

Qi Chun Jing pondered, saying, "This cycle is the endpoint."

He truly felt that on Cui Shan's soul, endless ages of pain and exhaustion had accumulated.

Cui Shan changed the topic, smiling, "I very much look forward to your performance in the inheritance grounds."

A moment later.

Qi Chun Jing strode into the inheritance starry sky.

The next instant.

"Chi!"

A star that had lain dormant for who knows how long suddenly burst forth with brilliant Divine Light, instantly transforming into a golden river that shot up to the heavens.

This inheritance acknowledged Qi Chun Jing!

"Human nature is good!"

Cui Shan was slightly startled.

Master Qi has only just stepped in!

Then.

"Chi!"

Another dormant star awakened, as if about to explode, Divine Light blazing.

An ancient phantom emerged, a benevolent aura surged downward, gazing at Qi Chun Jing.

This inheritance also acknowledged Qi Chun Jing!

"Human nature is evil!"

As Cui Shan was about to speak, the entire inheritance grounds displayed heavenly portents.

"Chi chi chi chi chi!"

Numerous stars, like ferocious beasts, all awoke; the previously tranquil starry sky suddenly surged with righteous vigor.

Like hundreds of great rivers flowing simultaneously.

And the endpoint is precisely where Qi Chun Jing stands!

Buzz buzz buzz!

On Qi Chun Jing's body, the righteous qi also produced resonance, and in an instant it was released.

Numerous ancient texts swirled around him.

This is his 'Dao'!

Not only that.

His natal character 'Person' also operated on its own, the Great Dao facing heaven, hovering above his head.

This time, the natal character 'Person' actually became the center of numerous ancient Confucian-Daoist traditions.

One after another, the inheritors' phantom images all looked at this natal character with some awe.

'What a terrifying natal character!'

'This fellow Daoist, although his cultivation is not high, his Dao Resonance is pure and terrifying!'

'No! This fellow Daoist seems to have encountered some great calamity, and is now restoring his own Dao Resonance!'

Numerous ancient Confucian scholars began to discuss.

Qi Chun Jing bowed respectfully, 'I am Qi Chun Jing, here to pay my respects to all you seniors.'

'Hehehe... seniors is too much of a title.'

'It's better to address each other as fellow Daoists.'

'I don't know, Master Qi, which one of us have you chosen?'

Qi Chun Jing thought for a moment, 'I wish to discuss the Dao with all of you seniors.'

'Good! Good! Good!'

Numerous ancient holy sages were greatly pleased.

Soon, Qi Chun Jing sat cross-legged in the void, surrounded by numerous ancient holy sages.

Everyone began to discuss the Dao.

'At the beginning of life, human nature is good. Natures are similar, habits diverge.'

'No, no! Human nature is evil; its goodness is false. Now human nature, born with a love for profit...'

'I dare not agree! Heaven and earth are not benevolent, treating all things as straw dogs; sages are not benevolent, treating humanity as straw dogs...'

……

In a moment, terrifying heavenly and earthly phenomena appeared throughout the land of inheritance.

Hundreds of inheritances' righteous qi escaped the sacred ground, the mighty Dao Resonance spreading throughout the Guard Simplicity Academy, startling the ten directions.

Within the Vast Sea Imperial Hall.

Fang Qianshan suddenly looked toward the direction of the Sun Profound Star Sea, 'Huh? My Guard Simplicity Academy actually could produce such a heaven-defying talent?'

The Vast Sea Emperor asked, 'What's going on?'

Fang Qianshan said, 'I sensed that someone in my Guard Simplicity Academy actually startled the entire land of inheritance, and all the ancient holy sages are discussing the Dao with him!'

'Hahaha! I just said it, heavenly auspicious signs have descended, humanity shall surely prosper!' The Vast Sea Emperor laughed, 'It seems the matter of conquest can be moved up.'

'Impossible.' Fang Qianshan's tone was decisive.

Vast Sea Emperor: '……'

……

At the same time.

At the frontier of the Mysterious Moon Star Sea.

Empress Yao Xi wore heavy armor, sleeping with her weapon at hand, she had occupied the 'existence' of Commander Du Ying, but had not awakened.

For some reason, she felt a bit vexed, so she left the tent and summoned her subordinate, the great general Mu Qingqing, 'Qingqing, accompany me for a walk.'

Mu Qingqing nodded, and walked together with Empress Yao Xi; she was occupied by Yang Ling'er.

Empress Yao Xi suddenly frowned, 'Huh? Qingqing, I feel as if an additional force of karma has appeared on both of our bodies?'

……
