Chapter 217 - The Miracle of Birth


Chapter 217: The Miracle of Birth

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There were only a number of people in the world that had attained Dao. If the person had wisdom, they would not have assigned him to be an undercover.

Shen Lian did not even bother with the name and it was not because he was cruel, but because in certain circumstances, he would not abuse his kindness. To him, he would do what he needed to do without a second doubt.

It was only until then that the image of the chief of Qing Xuan, Shen Zhenren started to be more concrete among the cultivators. It was not just merely rumor – the chief of Qing Xuan was someone who had incredible depth in cultivation and the ambition to bring Qing Xuan to the top. Now what they were seeing was the essence of the chief of Xuanmen sect, whose aloofness and decisiveness was formidable.

Shen Lian needed not to conduct small talks with these cultivators, as for someone at his status, all he needed to do was to have a grasp on the important matters as others would be taking care of the menial details.

He was not one to put up a straight or cold face, but for now, none of the cultivators dared to barge in by their initiatives. Since Zuo Shaoqing let out the sword ray to grind the spy from Guangqing into a puddle of blood and flesh, he just followed behind Shen Lian quietly.

After a few years, he served his duty as a sword servant well. Shen Lian no longer needed to take care of people of little importance as Zuo Shaoqing would have gotten rid of them for him. In the past, Zuo Shaoqing did not really respect Shen Lian deep down but only did so on the surface, but as he spent more time with him, Zuo Shaoqing had grown to think of Shen Lian highly due to his success in cultivation.

He did not know how powerful Shen Lian was, just as most commoners had no idea how high the sky was, but all would have known the sky was at an unattainable height.

Previously, Shen Lian applied a Daoist technique with the aid of the Mystical Whale’s Qi of vitality. After the spiritual rain, the whole island started to have more vitality, with flowers blooming like the sea and the wind blowing and generating the waves. It began to carry an air akin to a celestial environment.

Shen Lian, in fact, did not like flowers that much. He preferred to live at a place where it was quaint, or where there were either bamboo forests or green Chinese wisteria.

However, as Senior Apprentice-Sister was ultimately a girl, he decided to do so.

Subsequently, it was about setting up the formation to gather spiritual opportunity. If it was five years ago, even with the aid of the Mystical Whale, it was not something that Shen Lian could achieve. However, in that current state, whether was it mana or stage, he had entered a whole new level.

He did not know what the limit was for his power, but it was clear to him that a lot of the things were beginning to feel extremely easy.

Under the influence of Shen Lian’s Taixu mana, lines and lines of drainage began to appear on the island. The small streams then started to flow in the drainage, which was then turned into rivers. With the flow, they were combing the Qi of vitality of the island.

In between the breathing of the Mystical Whale, the Qi of vitality was like a wave that was crashing onto the island. It began to feel like it was following some form of natural principle in a neat way.

Shen Lian stood in the void, and his body was surrounded by eight types of celestial lights, which were not dimmed by even the sun and moonlight.

A lot of cultivators would never be able to forget that scene throughout their lives. The miracle of birth was no longer unique to heaven and earth – now it was something even human could achieve.

Until then, the others grew even fonder of the power of Qing Xuan and they longed even more for the celestial sects.

Gu Caiwei gladfully plucked a stalk of wildflower. It did not have a fragrant aroma, but it felt refreshing. As what her Junior Apprentice-Brother said, the world was indeed filled with a lot of beautiful things. She suddenly had a thought that after she was done with Bier Discourse of Dao, she intended to travel to see the landscapes of heaven and earth and everything in the universe.

The news that Qing Xuan’s Shen Zhenren was at Longevity Temple spread quickly. At the same time, Shen Zhenren’s unimaginable depth of mana and power, when displayed in front of others, the ability to grant life and turn desert into the fortune land was akin to that of holy deities.

As Shen Lian laid down the Waves of Heaven and Earth Formation with the Mystical Whale at the center of it, the formation not only protected the island, but it could also gather Qi of vitality with every breathing of the Mystical Whale. With this, after hundred to thousand years, the island could even turn into an equipment.

Some of the top cultivators quickly made their way to Longevity Temple after they heard the news. They all wanted to exchange their cultivation thoughts with the chief of the Xuanmen sect, but they were too late as Shen Zhenren had already left. To where was the question which Gu Caiwei did not have an answer for.

It was rumored that Shen Zhenren was still out in the sea.

The main hall was floating in mid sky on top of Mount Taicang. It was where Guangqing Celestial Sect was. The main hall looked as if it was traveling around mid-mountain. Daoist Huanzhen flew into the main hall, and he landed just in front of the hall. There was a board in the main door, which wrote “Lingxiao Hall”.

He did not look too different compared with five years ago. However, as he entered, his usually unchanged expression showed some fatigue.

He held some dust and slowly took steps forward. He kneeled down and said, “Headmaster, your student is back.”

There were the nine-stepped jade stairs in front of him which were made up entirely of white jade. It seemed like amidst those cumulus clouds were being born. Jade that could give birth to cumulus clouds was of extremely high quality and was multi-purpose. One could tell how excessive it was as it was used merely as the basis of steps here.

Amidst the cumulus cloud and on top of the nine-stepped jade stairs, someone was sitting at a throne. The throne was made of gold, and within it there was the mark of dragons which was hidden behind the cumulus cloud. Within the cumulus cloud, the gold looked as there was a dragon traveling within it.

He said, “Get up.”

Daoist Huanzhen then stood up. The one who was sitting on the throne was the chief of Guangqing Celestial Sect, the top among the five Immortal Zhenren – Yuming the Honored Celestial.

Huanzhen spoke, “Ye Liuyun from the Underworld Sect is indeed one of his kind. I spent five years, along with the third and fifth Junior Apprentice-Brother, then we managed to break his underworld army. However, to set the score straight for this, we missed the chance to destabilize Qing Xuan.”

Yuming the Honored Celestial said, “It doesn’t matter. We have to take on the Underworld Sect sooner or later. I just did not expect that they have someone good who could have seen through our design and planned the attack.”

Huanzhen said in a deep voice, “I thought about that too, but for Hungry Ghosts and Animals, while they are powerful, they are not great at the design of the gods. Who is that powerful? Could it be that Daoist Youjian had recovered?”

Yuming the Honored Celestial said, “Perhaps, but whatever we are doing, while we can hide them from the eyes of the world, we can’t hide from Lu Jiuyuan. As such, whatever the five of us do, we have to consider the opinion of Lu Jiuyuan. Furthermore, after Dengfeng attacked Ziling, according to her personality, sooner or later she will be here to settle the score. During these ten plus years, if we are not moving forward, we will be falling behind. I hope you understand.”

Huanzhen replied, “It is all a part of my responsibility is a student. When I was on my way back, I heard that Shen Lian has left the mountain. What do we do about him?”

Yuming the Honored Celestial responded, “If we kill Shen Lian, we will have become the ultimate enemy of Qing Xuan. If there is anyone of us who transcend beyond the mortal world, it will be difficult to deal with the old folks at Qing Xuan. We seek the path of Dao to live alongside the world, not to fight for power. We just need to delay Shen Lian’s cultivation because, with his talent, it seems that he can possibly break through whims within a hundred years.”

Huanzhen sighed and thought to himself. The headmaster was right as now Shen Lian was the chief of Qing Xuan. Carrying the name of the sect meant he now had to be more cautious.

Yuming the Honored Celestial said, “When you’re out for five years, I took in another student. His talent is not below Shen Lian. You should get him involved with the Luoist’s matters and train him.”
