Chapter 516: Tens of Millions of Years Ago, The Primogenitor of Dao
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The disciples of Empress Xiaohe had become a Saint Mother with transcendent status, which made Jiang Changsheng look forward to meeting Empress Xiaohe even more.
After tens of millions of years, she should have made great progress.
Previously, she was a Zenith Heaven Immortal. What realm would she reach if she were to go further?
Jiang Changsheng thought about it. In fact, he did not know how powerful Empress Xiaohe was. He could only confirm that she was at least a Zenith Heaven Immortal tens of millions of years ago.
What if Empress Xiaohe was like him and liked to hide her strength?
“Senior Changsheng, come with me. It’s not easy to see you. If I am negligent, master will blame me.”
After Saint Mother Qingqiu exchanged pleasantries, she turned to Jiang Changsheng and said.
She was not interested in Shaohao and the White-Robed Divine Lord. She just exchanged pleasantries with them due to etiquette.
Jiang Changsheng hesitated, but Shaohao immediately smiled and said, “Go ahead. The Saint Mother will certainly bring you to a better position.” The White-Robed Divine Lord did not say anything. His gaze landed on the Supreme Heaven in the distance.
Since Shaohao had given him a way out, Jiang Changsheng naturally would not be stubborn. He immediately bid farewell to Shaohao and the White-Robed Divine Lord.
Led by Saint Mother Qingqiu, they flew into a pavilion in the sky. It was not far from the Supreme Heaven, at least closer than those prayer mats.
The arrival of Saint Mother Qingqiu caused quite a commotion, which made Jiang Changsheng even more curious about her current status. The two of them sat twenty feet apart in the lobby of the pavilion.
“May I ask if Empress Xiaohe is well?”
Jiang Changsheng asked. After meeting the White-Robed Divine Lord, he looked forward to this era even more.
Saint Mother Qingqiu revealed a gentle smile and said, “Naturally, master is well. In order to see you again, she practically went to all the dojos of Zenith Heaven Immortals, even though the other party’s cultivation was inferior to her. After all this time, she just could not meet not you. Recently, she had to comprehend the Dao, so she did not come personally and sent me here. I did not expect to encounter senior here.”
Tens of millions of years ago, she and her junior sister were puzzled. They felt that their master’s care for Jiang Changsheng was incomprehensible.
Gradually, over the years, they were moved by their master’s persistence. After they experienced their own lives, they looked at their master’s attitude and felt touched. This touched their souls, causing their impression of Jiang Changsheng to change.
They did not know Jiang Changsheng, but they looked forward to their master meeting him. They looked forward to Jiang Changsheng knowing their master’s persistence and sacrifice.
Saint Mother Qingqiu began to talk about which dojos her master had been to. One by one, she revealed the names of Zenith Heaven Immortals, some of which were mentioned in the Chinese legends in his previous life.
Jiang Changsheng was indeed touched. After all, it was not once or twice, nor was it a year or two. It was tens of millions of years of persistence.
Speaking of which, his relationship with Empress Xiaohe was not very close. However, even though their friendship was as faint as water, there was an indescribable deep feeling.
Jiang Changsheng could not tell how he felt about Empress Xiaohe. It was not the passion between men and women, but the comfort of a bosom friend. During his years of cultivation, he would often think of her.
This kind of relationship was wonderful. At least he enjoyed it.
Unfortunately, he was too weak compared to Empress Xiaohe. He could not repay her at all.
After Saint Mother Oingaiu said everything she wanted to sav, she felt refreshed and her thoughts were clear.
She was also satisfied with Jiang Changsheng’s emotional expression. It was the reaction she wanted.
“Saint Mother, have you heard of the Dao Ancestor?” Jiang Changsheng suddenly asked.
Saint Mother Qingqiu was still immersed in her inner world. When she heard Jiang Changsheng’s question, she subconsciously answered, “Dao Ancestor? Which Dao Ancestor?”
Jiang Changsheng frowned and asked, “Are there many Dao Ancestors?”
Saint Mother Qingqiu came back to her senses and said, “Of course not. There is indeed no Dao Ancestor. At least, I have never heard of him. Speaking of which, it’s strange. In the myriad worlds, there is no mighty figure called the
Dao Ancestor. The Great Dao is endless. Who dares to call themselves the Dao Ancestor?”
Jiang Changsheng was relieved when he heard that. If many Dao Ancestors appeared, it would mean that there was a huge problem.
Just as he was about to ask again, the voice of the Supreme Heaven sounded.
“Everyone, the sermon will now begin.”
The tone of the Supreme Heaven was very unyielding, causing the noise outside the pavilion to instantly disappear. Jiang Changsheng could not ask any more questions and was prepared to concentrate on listening.
He could not spend so many karma points in vain.
Saint Mother Qingqiu also began to concentrate. Even though she came with her master’s mission, she did not want to miss out on hearing the sermon.
“There are 3000 Great Daos. I will not talk about those 3000 Connate Great Daos, but about creating a Dao.”
The Supreme Heaven’s words made Jiang Changsheng’s eyes light up.
His current confusion was that the Great Daos he grasped seemed to be able to be cultivated indefinitely. Precisely because he could not see the end, he could not find the opportunity to break through.
In the process of creating a Dao, then the creation of a Great Dao will have stages.
If laws could be created, why couldn’t the Great Dao?
Jiang Changsheng still remembered the Indefinite Law that Ping’an had mastered. Those were the laws created postnatally.
The sermon of the Supreme Heaven officially began. The sound of the sermon pulled all the listeners into a state of comprehension.
Compared to the previous sermon, Jiang Changsheng entered a mysterious state this time. His consciousness seemed to be floating in the colorful space of light.
“Heaven and earth are born from the Dao, and the Dao is destroyed. The Dao is born from one, one is born from two, and two is born from three. Three is born from all things, and all things can become one. Three thousand are one. The law is the Dao, the soul is the law, and the cultivator is the Heavenly Dao…” While Jiang Changsheng comprehended the power of the Great Dao he had grasped, he also understood what the Supreme Heaven was saying.
After the initial general introduction, the Supreme Heaven began to explain how he integrated his Dao. From the birth of ideas, he passed his Dao to all listeners.
Time flew by.
Jiang Changsheng was so immersed in the sermon that he forgot everything.
Even with his current realm, he was still excited to have come into contact with something new. He had to admit that the Supreme Heaven was very powerful.
In terms of preaching, Jiang Changsheng felt that the Supreme Heaven was stronger than the previous dojo lord.
In the pavilion, traces of light dissipated from the surface of Jiang Changsheng’s body. There were many nodes on every trace of light, as if they were connected to stars. These rays of light surrounded him and their speed slowly increased.
On the side, the image of Saint Mother of Qingqiu had also bloomed. There were even many lotus flowers in the hall. However, these lotus flowers did not touch the light around Jiang Changsheng. Both sides maintained a certain distance.
Outside the building.
The Supreme Heaven sat on the lotus seat with an expressionless face. However, his gaze landed on the pavilion where Jiang Changsheng was located and there was a strange glint in his eyes.
The sky of the dojo was always bright. Countless Dao seekers burst out all kinds of phenomena during the process of comprehending the Dao, making the sky look gorgeous.
In a state of self-absorption, Jiang Changsheng’s consciousness fell into an unprecedented mystical state. He felt that the power of his Great Dao had come alive and was wandering around him, just like a group of children surrounding their father, happily asking for something.
Jiang Changsheng was also looking for what they wanted.
The blue sea and mulberry fields were merely a dream for powerful cultivators.
Jiang Changsheng gradually woke up and there was no longer the voice of the Supreme Heaven preaching in his ears. The noisy noise got closer and clearer and soon became noisy.
He opened his eyes and his senses recovered quickly. It was like a dream that made him fall into a trance for a while.
“Senior, now that this sermon is over, I should leave.”
When he heard what the Saint Mother said, Jiang Changsheng turned around and saw that she had already stood up and was staring at him with her gentle eyes.
Jiang Changsheng immediately stood up and said, “Thank you for your care,
Saint Mother. I will remember your kindness.”
The Saint Mother Qingqiu said, “Even though I don’t know your background, it seems like you will only appear in dojos. Is there anything you want to bring to my master?”
Jiang Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, “The past and the future are indistinguishable, but the agreement to go to the end of the Dao together is true. I hope she will not forget.’
His words caused the Saint Mother to raise her eyebrows. She looked at Jiang Changsheng deeply before walking out of the pavilion and disappearing in a streak of light.
Jiang Changsheng stretched and prepared to leave. “Fellow Daoist, please wait. I have something to discuss with you.”
A voice sounded. It was the dojo lord, Supreme Heaven.
After Jiang Changsheng heard that, he chose to stay. This was transported here by the orthodoxy revival function. He did not really transmigrate and therefore, was not afraid of death.
As he waited, he began to stretch his muscles.
“This physical body is quite real. Did my consciousness come, or did my consciousness attach itself to a certain physical body?”
Jiang Changsheng was secretly curious. He felt that it was the latter. However, since Empress Xiaohe and Shaohao remembered him, it meant that when his consciousness attached itself to other living beings, it would transform their appearance and aura into him.
Furthermore, this person’s cultivation was similar to his, but it was not entirely the same.
Just like right now, Jiang Changsheng felt that there was a slight gap in his cultivation. Before this, he was slightly stronger, but now, he was slightly weaker.
If he were to become stronger, he would not doubt it. After all, he would become stronger every time he listened to a sermon. It would not make sense if he became weaker instead.
How could he possibly be weaker?
There were fewer and fewer voices outside the pavilion. Jiang Changsheng thought of Shaohao and immediately walked out. He stood by the building and looked around, but he could no longer see Shaohao and the White-Robed Divine Lord.
They had already left.
“I hope you’re still here when we meet again.”
A smile appeared on Jiang Changsheng’s face. He had used the orthodoxy revival function several times, but he had only made a few friends. The only ones who could always contact him were Empress Xiaohe and Shaohao.
He hoped that the two of them would continue to be well.
After all the listeners left, the dojo fell into silence.
After the sermon ended, the Supreme Heaven disappeared. A mighty figure like him would not watch everyone leave.
Jiang Changsheng was not in a hurry. No matter how long he stayed here, the reality would pass for only a few breaths.
“You possess many powers of the Great Dao. May I ask which Divine Saint are you?”
The voice of the Supreme Heaven sounded. Jiang Changsheng turned around and saw the Supreme Heaven standing seven steps away from him. The two of them stood by the building against the wind.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “I’m not a Divine Saint. I’m just an immortal cultivator that needs your guidance.”
The Supreme Heaven narrowed his eyes and said, “I’ve seen you before. Tens of millions of years ago, you were by Empress Xiaohe’s side in the Bodhi Buddha
Sea.”
So clear?
At that time, the two of them did not interact.
Jiang Changsheng could not help but wonder if this fellow paid a lot of attention to Empress Xiaohe.
Even though immortal cultivators had extraordinary memories, how could you remember someone tens of millions of years ago so clearly?
Even if one remembered, one still needed to recall their memories.
Could it be that during the sermon, this fellow was recalling?
Jiang Changsheng did not panic. In any case, he did not belong to this era.
The Supreme Heaven continued, “Even though I am curious about your background, the fact that you possess many powers of the Great Dao shows that we are of the same Dao. During this lecture, you are the only one who can truly embark on the Dao of creation. Since we are fated and we are of the same Dao, I shall bestow you with an opportunity.”
When Jiang Changsheng heard that, he was immediately happy and hastily said, “Thank you, Fellow Daoist!”
The Supreme Heaven waved his hand and said, “This is a divine technique that I obtained when I roamed the world. This stone tablet is recorded with the words ‘Primogenitor of the Dao. Thanks to this divine technique, I am where I am today..”
