Chapter 427: Arrival of the Cold
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the face of Fairy Xiaohe’s teasing, Jiang Changsheng quickly straightened his attitude and modestly said, “You must be joking, Fairy Xiaohe. I came here because of my luck.”
Fairy Xiaohe shook her head and said, “Luck is also an indispensable part of cultivation. Sometimes, good luck surpasses one’s background and talent.” Jiang Changsheng could only agree.
Then, under the invitation of Fairy Xiaohe, they sat close to each other.
Jiang Changsheng looked to his left and right. This was not the dojo of the Kunlun Leader. The sea of clouds was vast and the mountain peaks were like bamboo shoots in spring. On the horizon was a huge sunset. The sunset was endlessly beautiful like a painting.
After he sat down, Jiang Changsheng realized that the number of immortal cultivators here was much smaller compared to the Kunlun Dojo. However, all of them had outstanding temperament and were obviously extraordinary.
Other than human immortal cultivators, he also saw some demon immortal cultivators with their own characteristics.
“Ancestor Xuan Ti rarely preaches the Dao. This time, he is talking about karma. The Dao of karma is extremely profound. I wonder how much I can comprehend this time.”
Fairy Xiaohe looked ahead and said slowly. Her beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation.
The Dao of karma?
Wasn’t this just perfect?
Jiang Changsheng thought to himself, but he was not surprised. The function must have detected his needs.
He had always felt that the Dao of karma was in line with his identity as the Ancestor of All Immortals. He could calculate anything with his fingers, and everything was in his calculations. Only then could he be considered a true immortal that had jumped out of the three realms and was not among the five elements.
Jiang Changsheng and Fairy Xiaohe chatted casually as they waited for Ancestor Xuan Ti’s arrival.
After a while, a golden light descended from the sky and landed in front of them, transforming into a huge seed. The seed quickly opened and turned into a lotus seat. A tall old Daoist sat on it, dragging a white jade bottle in his hand. Two fish could be seen swimming inside.
Jiang Changsheng was curious. Did all these enlightened experts like to sit on lotus seats?
Ancestor Xuan Ti opened his eyes and glanced at the crowd.
“Greetings, Ancestor Xuan Ti!”
The crowd shouted in unison. Their voices gathered together and echoed endlessly.
Ancestor Xuan Ti nodded slightly and said, “Immortal encounters converge.
Since we have met, it is fate. In terms of karma, how much you can comprehend depends on your own luck.”
This time, Jiang Changsheng could sense that Ancestor Xuan Ti’s voice was filled with an indescribable infectious force, making his heart as calm as a pool of water.
Soon after, Ancestor Xuan Ti began to preach the Dao, which greatly increased his infectious power. As Jiang Changsheng listened, he fell into a state of comprehension.
It turned out that this was a sermon, and it was not just about discussing Daoism. Instead, it was to guide the audience into a state of comprehension through their voice. This ability was very strong.
Ancestor Xuan Ti’s sermon echoed in his ears. Jiang Changsheng had many of his doubts solved about the Dao of karma. He also had many more thoughts.
He soon immersed himself in it and forgot about his surroundings.
“The Dao of karma, networking and fate. From the beginning to the end, from the end to the beginning. From beginning to end, it will always converge. It is ever-changing, and all laws have their own origin…
Ancestor Xuan Ti’s sermon was tireless, and each listener had their own reactions. Some thought hard, some revealed joy, and some flew into a rage out of humiliation. All of them closed their eyes, as if they had fallen into different dreams.
Jiang Changsheng could already sense the karma around him. Every spectator here had countless karma. In his life, everyone he met would have karma.
It was so complicated, so huge, but he was addicted to it.
Gradually, he realized that the karma ties he had were not only in this life, but also in his previous life.
If it involved the karma of his previous life, then it was even deeper.
Right now, he was still in the stage of understanding karma. Only when he was familiar with karma could he get involved in it and even deduce its rules to calculate what was about to happen through it.
When he reached greater mastery, he could even control the Dao of karma to fight.
Jiang Changsheng forgot about time and focused on comprehending the Dao.
Time flew by like a shuttle, but the vast sunset on the horizon did not set.
No one knew how long had passed.
When Jiang Changsheng woke up from his Dao comprehension state, the voice of Ancestor Xuan Ti no longer sounded in his ears.
He opened his eyes and looked over. The dojo above the sea of clouds was quiet, and most of the listeners were still thinking hard.
He turned his head and found that Fairy Xiaohe was still comprehending the Dao. She was frowning. Clearly, she had encountered some incomprehensible difficulties.
“Am I considered talented or too mediocre?”
Jiang Changsheng thought silently. He carefully sensed it and realized that his insight into karma was much clearer. In his eyes, the karma surrounding the listeners was invisible and tangible, and he found it interesting.
Even if he could not compare to others, his own improvement alone was quite satisfactory.
The karma points would still be produced. There was more than one opportunity for him to listen to the sermons, so he had nothing to compare with it.
Furthermore…
These people were all immortal cultivators from a long time ago. Now that the Immortal Dao was desolate, if he were to restart it, wouldn’t that mean that they were all dead?
Jiang Changsheng could not help but look at Fairy Xiaohe and then at the unfathomable Ancestor Xuan Ti in the distance.
His heart skipped a beat when he suddenly felt something else on his body. At that moment, Ancestor Xuan Ti opened his eyes and met Jiang Changsheng’s gaze-
This time, Jiang Changsheng did not run away because he knew that this was only a memory of the past. The orthodoxy revival function would not put him in danger.
When their eyes met, Ancestor Xuan Ti revealed a smile before closing his eyes again without saying anything.
Jiang Changsheng was curious. The other party was previously unsmiling, so why was he smiling at him now? Did he notice his abnormality?
Thinking back carefully, the Kunlun Leader was the same. He had also sensed that Jiang Changsheng was different.
“Even though it’s an illusion, it’s so real. Could it be that I have returned to the past in some incomprehensible way, but I don’t really exist in the past?”
Jiang Changsheng thought that this might also be a kind of karma, a karma that he could not guess for the time being.
From this, it could be inferred that the survival system itself contained many rules.
Jiang Changsheng stopped thinking and continued to recall his previous comprehension.
As time passed, more and more cultivators woke up.
Fairy Xiaohe woke up and found that Jiang Changsheng had come to his senses earlier than her. She could not help but be surprised. She asked curiously, “Fellow Daoist, have you dabbled in the Dao of karma before?”
Jiang Changsheng looked at her and said, “Yes, but not too deeply.”
Fairy Xiaohe nodded and said, “To be able to understand the Dao of karma in the Taiyi Realm, you are indeed talented.”
Jiang Changsheng was surprised. The other party could see through his cultivation realm?
“This lecture is pretty good. It’s much better than the last time I listened to it. After another thousand years of seclusion, I can go to the Spirit Sea to search for immortal encounters. Fellow Daoist Changsheng, are you willing to go?”
Fairy Xiaohe asked with a smile. She stared at Jiang Changsheng with increasing satisfaction.
Jiang Changsheng could not help but ask, “May I ask why you are so eager to rope me in?”
Fairy Xiaohe answered, “The first time, I was just curious and gave you some pointers out of goodwill. For us to meet again this time, it means that we are fated. Moreover, the talent you displayed is extraordinary, so I naturally have to rope you in.”
She spoke freely and without any pretense as she calmly stared at Jiang Changsheng.
Jiang Changsheng thought that there was no such thing as fate, unless he could meet her again.
He smiled and said, “Thank you for your kind intentions, but I have something important to do and cannot explore the immortal encounter with you.”
“May I ask what is the matter?”
“An enemy wants to kill me.”
Seeing that the other party continued to ask, Jiang Changsheng might as well be frank.
Fairy Xiaohe shook her head and laughed. “I didn’t expect that although you seem calm and indifferent, you are in a calamity. Can you tell me about your enemy? If your background is not great, join my Lingxiao Sect and we will resolve it for you.”
The reason why she wanted to rope in Jiang Changsheng was because he had an extraordinary temperament. Such a temperament was extremely rare for a young cultivator. Coupled with Jiang Changsheng’s comprehension of the Dao of karma, she wanted to rope him in even more.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and asked, “May I ask how many people there are in the Lingxiao Sect?”
“Nine, including me.”
“Nine people? That’s amazing. With this amount of people, it must mean that everyone’s cultivation is profound.”
Fairy Xiaohe declined to comment and merely looked at Jiang Changsheng with a meaningful gaze.
Jiang Changsheng suddenly noticed that the awakened immortal cultivators were staring at him with strange expressions.
Could it be that the Lingxiao Sect had an extremely high status in the cultivation world?
Jiang Changsheng thought, but he did not regret it. After all, he did not belong here.
“Let’s go. The Ancestral Master has left. We can leave on our own.”
Fairy Xiaohe stood up and said. Jiang Changsheng turned around and saw that Ancestor Xuan Ti had disappeared.
Seeing this, Jiang Changsheng stood up and followed Fairy Xiaohe away. The two of them came to the teleportation gate of the training hall and exchanged a few polite words before leaving.
As soon as he stepped into the teleportation gate, Jiang Changsheng felt the world spinning.
Whoa!
Jiang Changsheng felt as if he had suddenly landed on the ground. He suddenly opened his eyes and discovered that he had returned to the Purple Cloud Palace.
He looked at the clone beside him. The clone had integrated into his body, allowing him to understand that only a few seconds had passed in reality.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that it would take a long time to recover his senses.
He sat on the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin and began to recall his comprehension. As for the Eternal Cold Wave, he would deal with it as it came. He just had to focus on becoming stronger.
Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Jiang Changsheng was still recalling the Dao of karma taught by Ancestor Xuan Ti when he suddenly felt something and opened his eyes.
“This chill… is so strong!”
Jiang Changsheng’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately calculated the strongest experts in the known range.
[11 Heavenly Dao incense points will be consumed. Do you wish to continue?]
11 Heavenly Dao Incense Points!
This had surpassed the Enlightening Sacred Martial Realm!
They must be from the Divine Martial Realm!
No wonder the Xuanhuang Great World could be surpress by the Divine Martial Realm. They had so many hidden Enlightening Sacred Martial Realm experts. Jiang Changsheng’s heart sank and he immediately controlled the Kunlun Field to move.
At the same time, the cold air formed a vast storm above the Xuanhuang Great World, and a figure floated in it.
This person wore a long gray robe, and the hem of his clothes seemed to have been torn apart. His long hair was casually draped over his shoulders, and his hair was the color of withered grass. His skin was blue and covered with ice. His long eyebrows were like two curved blades, and his eyes were silver. The hands that appeared in his sleeves were slender, and his fingers were like claws.
“The 3000 worlds are still the same as the last era. There are no changes. How boring.”
The gray-robed man muttered to himself with an indifferent tone. He was the expert invited by the Divine Martial Realm, Great Cold Heaven!
