Simultaneous Transmigration: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds

Chapter 330 The Path of Heaven Cuts Through Humanity (Two Chapters Combined)

After the seafood feast, Qin Sheng went to an ancient city to inquire about some information.

As he expected, many people were discussing the events in Beihai, and the reputation and infamy of the master of the Eight Views Palace had both risen to new heights.

Who wouldn't be terrified if they heard someone go and wipe out an entire demon clan or a whole family at the slightest disagreement?

"It is said that the Nether Dragon Halberd of the Nether Dragon Clan, the Blood Spirit Sword of the Blood Spirit Clan, and the Demon Soul Pearl—these three sacred weapons have all been suppressed by the master of the Eight Views Palace."

"For a powerful being to suppress three sacred weapons is like a fantasy. He truly deserves to be called the Sun Demon Lord."

"Fortunately, these three holy weapons are not something he can use; in fact, they have become a burden to him."

The simultaneous fall of the three sacred weapons shocked many people, and also gave rise to different thoughts.

Only a sacred weapon can suppress another sacred weapon. Although the master of the Eight Views Palace was unparalleled in this battle, he probably couldn't use his own sacred weapon in order to suppress weapons such as the Demon Soul Pearl.

If the suppression of the Demon Soul Orbs is relaxed, these three weapons will surely retaliate.

Doesn't this mean that the master of the Eight Views Palace is in an unprecedented period of weakness?

Without the sacred weapon, no matter how strong he is, he is only a king-level fighter. A single blow from the sacred artifact can take him down!
“These people are right.” Yi Qingwu’s expression was somewhat strange.

"But they certainly don't expect that you have so many things on you that can suppress holy weapons."

The thought of someone taking advantage of this man's illness, perhaps because he "has no holy weapon to use," is unbearable.

The Moon Goddess fell silent.

"You could say he's somewhat clever, but not much," Qin Sheng said.
"My confidence in roaming freely in Ziwei and fearing no power has never come from my sacred weapon."

"If someone is willing to offer me a holy weapon as a bargaining chip before they come to kill me, so that I won't have to use holy-grade weapons or secret treasures to fight them, then I can agree to that."

Qin Sheng remained calm and composed, his tone brimming with confidence.

He relied solely on his own abilities!

Right, Grandmother Nan?

Yi Qingwu and Li Wan couldn't understand where Qin Sheng's confidence came from; the former felt that the Beidou people were a bit arrogant.

Isn't it because the Great Dao suppresses you Beidou less that you have produced a sage of this era?

What's there to be arrogant about!
“Senior, news of the Fusang Divine Tree has spread far and wide, and everyone is now speculating that the Tree Ancestor has followed you.” Li Wan said with some worry.

"This could cause trouble. Many reclusive kings with limited lifespans will likely be tempted. For example, the Golden Crow Clan desperately desires the Fusang Divine Tree."

The Golden Crow Clan regards this immortal tree as the key to their ability to attain enlightenment, and they have a mysterious confidence that as long as they obtain the divine tree, they can become Golden Crow Emperors.

It's worth mentioning that the Ziwei Golden Crow Clan and the Golden Crow Clan of the future Golden Crow Emperor are actually not related.

The Purple Star Golden Crow did not migrate from the depths of the starry sky in the last few thousand or tens of thousands of years, but has always lived on this ancient star.

More than 100,000 years ago, the people of Ziwei Ancient Star revealed a traitor who, after achieving great success in his cultivation, stole the sect's supreme holy weapon, the Goddess Furnace.

Then they captured all the goddesses of the Human King's Palace, the fairies of the Moon Palace, the princesses of the Golden Crow Clan, and so on.

It is evident that the Golden Crow Clan was already a powerful clan in the Ziwei realm at that time.

The birds of Ziwei were completely unaware that among the Golden Crow Clan deep in the starry sky was an old Golden Crow who was about to attain enlightenment.

They genuinely believed that once they obtained the Fusang Divine Tree, their king would have the opportunity to attain enlightenment.

Common bird.

"When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it." Qin Sheng said leisurely.
"Although I did not obtain the Fusang Divine Tree, if any old geezer who is about to die jumps out, I would not mind sending him on his way."

“The Golden Crow Clan will not make any moves before the Golden Crow King emerges from seclusion,” Yi Qingwu judged.

She was right.

In the original timeline, before the emergence of the Fusang Divine Tree, other forces only dispatched a few top experts, along with sacred weapons, to search for it.

The Golden Crow Clan, on the other hand, mobilized almost their entire force, determined to win.

But this time...

Even when they heard about the Fusang Divine Tree, the Golden Crow Clan pretended not to hear it.

That great demon, the Sun Demon Lord, is becoming increasingly ferocious; we can't defeat him.

Wait for the king to emerge from the pass!

The Sun Chariot soared into the sky, but Qin Sheng did not return to the Ancient City of the Sun. Instead, he disappeared into the mortal world and headed to another place.

"The Ancient Sun Scripture, the Fusang Divine Tree... I have already accomplished most of my goals in coming to Ziwei."

Not only were most of the original goals achieved, but there were also many unexpected surprises.

For example, the inheritance of the Eight Views Palace and the laurel branches were beyond Qin Sheng's original expectations. This trip to Ziwei can be said to have been truly worthwhile.

Among those unfulfilled goals, the most important are naturally the Taiyin Ancient Scripture and the Zhezi Secret.

The former has a clear goal, the latter...

"The ancient scriptures of the gods must be obtained in their entirety; if there is only half, it is impossible to cultivate them."

In the original timeline, Ye Fan obtained half a page of the Divine Ancient Scripture, but because the text was incomplete, he couldn't comprehend anything about it, as if he were reading a book written in heaven.

Later, he entered the Fire Domain of the Eastern Wilderness again and, by chance, glimpsed the true form of the Immortal Scripture, which was half an Immortal Phoenix.

The essence of the Celestial Phoenix is ​​a series of divine chains of the Great Dao, but most of these chains are broken, with only one remaining intact and capable of being learned from.

Ye Fan only obtained an unknown fraction of the "Zhe" secret.

Later still, he fought a great battle with a contemporary Overlord Body, captured the Overlord Body, and read the information in the Overlord Body's primordial spirit to complete the "Zhe" secret.

"I can't wait until Ye Fan fights the Overlord Body. The 'Zhe' Secret can make one's life force extremely tenacious. The sooner I get it, the better. Staying alive is the most important thing."

Qin Sheng's mind raced. "The Ancestral Star of the Overlord Body is also a forbidden zone for life. It's even more unrealistic to go there to seize the Secret of the Word 'Zhe'."

Therefore, it would be very necessary to directly obtain the complete Ancient Divine Scripture from Ziwei.

"The Temple of Longevity and the Palace of the Human King, don't disappoint me, but the actual location of their exchange is still unknown..."

Qin Sheng is now going to solve this unknown problem.

"You want to follow the path of Yin and Yang?" Yi Qingwu suddenly asked.

“How come you see?”

“You have the laurel branch, but you also need the Fusang divine branch for balance, that’s obvious,” Yi Qingwu whispered.

"The harmony of Yin and Yang leads to the throne, an invincible path, but also a dead end. Think it over carefully."

She actually tried to persuade Qin Sheng.

This made Qin Sheng laugh. "You should be looking forward to me going down this path. Then when I lose control and die from the conflict between Yin and Yang, you will regain your freedom."

Yi Qingwu remained silent.

The body may be free, but how can the marks on one's life be erased?
"Big brother won't be in danger!" the little girl exclaimed.

"of course."

Qin Sheng touched the little girl's chubby face.

The danger lies in the balance of Yin and Yang. What does that have to do with my Devouring Heaven Demon Art?
"The Way of Yin and Yang will greatly help my breakthrough. I need the branches of the two divine trees to give me some inspiration at this stage," Qin Sheng said casually.

“You’ve only just broken through…” Yi Qingwu remained silent.

Although this man is currently at the ninth minor step of the second level of the Immortal Realm, he still needs to be like Yin Tiande before he truly needs to face that challenge.

"It's always better to be prepared than to cram at the last minute," Qin Sheng said.
"Besides, given my cultivation speed, it won't be long before I reach the Gate of Severing the Dao."

"You're right." Yi Qingwu had to admit it.

It has only been three or four months since Qin Sheng last broke through to the next realm.

However, it should be noted that the most difficult step in cultivating to the second level of immortality is not advancing from the initial stage to the middle stage, nor breaking through to the pinnacle in the middle stage, but rather advancing from the eighth stage to the ninth stage.

Whether it's the Big Dipper or the Purple Star, the vast majority of holy masters and religious leaders are stuck at this stage, struggling for one or two thousand years without being able to break through.

But in Qin Sheng, there are no bottlenecks or barriers whatsoever.

He can complete in one or two years the journey that even saints and religious leaders cannot reach in their entire lives.

"I remember when Senior Qin first appeared, he was at the mid-stage of the Great Power realm. How long has it been? He has already reached this level."

Li Wan sighed, "Yin Tiande, the number one genius of Ziwei Ancient Star before, has already stepped into the King Realm with one foot. Now, even if Senior Qin's cultivation is a few points lower, he can still be considered to be at the same level as him."

"In the short term, Yin Tiande still has no hope of breaking through the Dao and becoming a king. At the speed of his cultivation, he will definitely become the first Dao-breaking cultivator in the Ziwei world!"

Yi Qingwu wanted to refute, saying that severing the Dao was not so simple, but when she thought of the devil beside her's past behavior, she hesitated to speak.

Even if the hurdle of severing one's path is incredibly difficult, it seems impossible for this man to be stumped.

If he fails, then all cultivators in the entire universe will be stuck at this stage.

"Big brother is so amazing!" The little girl said proudly, hands on her hips.

"It's a normal thing, nothing to brag about." Qin Sheng said calmly. Since his debut in Beidou, he had been used to hearing flattery.

Qin Sheng couldn't understand why his simple actions could amaze the world.

Breaking from the eighth rank to the ninth rank is something anyone can do.

Qin Sheng couldn't understand what those people who had been stuck at this step for thousands of years were doing.

If a pig lives for two thousand years, it must be a divine pig, right?

"The first king of our time..." Yi Qingwu was lost in thought.

"If you can take this step within ten years, it will be very difficult for others to catch up with you."

Qin Sheng: "..."

You want me to sever my Dao within ten years?
Are you cursing me?
"Although the Sun God Cult has not produced a king for a long time, I have seen records in some ancient books that many predecessors emphasized the difficulty of this level."

Li Wan recalled: "The Immortal Three Cuts the Dao, Heaven Cuts the Human Dao, destroying the cultivator's foundation and preventing them from making any progress in their entire life."

The term "斩道" (Zhan Dao) has many layers of meaning.

This means that once a cultivator reaches this stage, their path forward has been cut off, leaving them with no way to go and no path to follow.

It also means that a cultivator must cut off the thoughts in their heart, cut off a part of themselves, and thus carve out a path that belongs to them.

When there is no way out in the world, we must continue the path of humanity; this shows how crucial this step is.

Undoubtedly, this step is difficult and dangerous; throughout history, eight or nine out of ten geniuses have fallen at this very step.

In ancient history, there were several extraordinary talents who amazed the ages and could rival young emperors before they broke through to the Dao, but they ultimately perished at this hurdle.

Many people believe that if those geniuses could successfully break through, there might be a few more human emperors.

Even if someone successfully severs their path, their personality will change drastically, as if they have become a completely different person, because they have severed their past "self".

Having good talent and high aptitude does not guarantee success in breaking through the barriers; this stage is complex and full of variables.

Different experiences and encounters lead to different paths in life, and outstanding talent and ability may become obstacles at that time.

There was once a great emperor of antiquity who almost fell at this point in his youth, nearly killing himself.

"A ruthless person has an obsession she can't let go of. The easiest way for her to break through to the Dao is to cut off that obsession, but she definitely didn't choose to do that..." Qin Sheng thought to himself.

"I don't know how that ruthless person killed him; it must have been a complicated process."

In short, each emperor's talent and ability reached the pinnacle of human potential, yet even they could not escape the challenges of this stage, which shows how difficult it was.

"Big brother, will you erase all memories of Nannan?" Little Nannan asked anxiously.

"Big brother, don't forget Nannan!"

"No, I am who I am, I won't change, and I won't lose myself." Qin Sheng patted the little girl's head.

"Nannan is someone I will never forget in my life."

The little girl nestled quietly in Qin Sheng's arms.

Qin Sheng's eyes were deep. Ever since he stepped into the Sendai Secret Realm, he had been pondering the issue of severing the Dao. Now, as he approached the Gate of Severing the Dao, he had finally gained some insight. "Even Heaven cannot sever me," Qin Sheng murmured. His voice was soft, but it carried the weight of Mount Tai, containing an unbreakable conviction.

Cutting the Dao, in a sense, is about setting a path and nurturing one's own "seed of the Dao".

The subsequent cultivation is a process of allowing this seed of Dao to grow step by step until it becomes a towering tree.

But what path will Qin Sheng take?
Only he can decide this; even God cannot force him to make a choice.

My destiny is in my own hands.

"There are many methods to sever one's path in the Guanghan Palace. I have seen some of them..." Yi Qingwu shared some of the information she knew, hoping it would be helpful to Qin Sheng.

I just don't want to see my little girl heartbroken if this man fails to achieve his goal.

Taiyuan.

Qin Sheng once again arrived at the headquarters of the secluded ancient Taoist sect, Tianji Sect.

Last time, he received a talisman from the Heavenly Mystery Sect, which allowed him to ask them to perform four divinations for him.

The Ruthless Man's Palace, the Fusang Divine Tree, and the Qinling Mountains have already used up three chances; now, only one chance remains.

Qin Sheng came here to inquire about the secrets of heaven.

Yi Qingwu revisited the place, her heart filled with complex emotions.

She would never forget Taiyuan and Yuewu Mountain; these two places were turning points in her life.

This transformed her from the lofty and unparalleled beauty of Ziwei into a defeated fairy who fell to the mortal realm.

Before being captured by Qin Sheng, Yi Qingwu never imagined that one day she would be living a life of cooking, washing clothes, and taking care of children.

At first, Yi Qingwu had grievances against the Tianji Sect, but today, the Fairy of Guanghan is in a daze.

Perhaps this really is fate. My coming here and everything that followed was ordained by destiny.

“We’ve been here before!” the little girl said, indicating that she had a very good memory.

As the sun chariot swept across the sky, Qin Sheng and the others saw the entrance to Taiyuan in the distance. Before they even got close, they saw a young Taoist boy standing on the ground, waving at them.

This was the same young Taoist who had received Qin Sheng last time.

After landing, the young Taoist said, "The Heavenly Mystery Elder knows why you have come. This is the answer to what you want to know."

He handed over a yellowed piece of paper. This thing was very unusual; it was the Taoist Heavenly Dao Paper, made through a complex ancient process of enlightenment, sacrifice, and practice. Only the ancient Taoist sects had this tradition.

Qin Sheng took the Heavenly Dao Paper, but his gaze lingered on the Daoist boy, whose eyes were closed.

"What happened to your eyes? You didn't look like this the last time we met," Qin Sheng asked curiously.

"If you are injured, I have some precious medicine here."

The young boy always went to great lengths to deliver the secrets of heaven; even if he didn't achieve great things, he still put in a lot of effort, so Qin Sheng was generous in rewarding him.

However, the young Taoist priest gave a stiff smile and said:

"The Old Man of Heavenly Secrets instructed that we must not look at it."

"Big brother, what can't I look at?" the little girl asked.

The young Taoist said, "...Heavenly secrets cannot be seen."

"None of us are named Tianji," the little girl said, puzzled.

Qin Sheng picked her up and told the old woman to stop probing, otherwise she would frighten the boy into tears.

At this point, all four deduction opportunities had been used up, and the Heavenly Secret Talisman in Qin Sheng's hand was rendered invalid, which he returned to the Daoist boy.

Then, Qin Sheng asked, "Which celestial elder gave me the answer I want to know this time?"

If every time a deduction is made, an old sage of divination dies...

The Ten Unsolved Mysteries of Ziwei: How Many Celestial Secret Elders Are There in the Tianji Sect?

“It is the same patriarch you met last time.” The young Taoist looked sad.

"He's still alive?" Qin Sheng asked, somewhat surprised.

When we last met, didn't you say you only had three days to live?

The young Taoist shook his head. "The patriarch passed away just one day after meeting you last time. This is the answer he left behind, instructing me to give it to you when you visit again."

Qin Sheng: "..."

Holy crap, that's intense?

Even though he had personally experienced the unpredictable and mysterious Heavenly Secrets Technique of the Heavenly Secrets Elder before, Qin Sheng was still extremely surprised at this moment.

After so much time, you've actually figured out the answer to what he wants to ask now?
"No wonder it is said that the sages of the past could communicate with spirits and see the future before they died."

Qin Sheng exclaimed, "I admire you!"

That's real skill; you have to admire it.

Qin Sheng had no idea how advanced Emperor Fuxi's understanding of the Heavenly Secrets and the Way of Change had become. He wished he could ask this great emperor to tell him his fate and when he would be able to don the imperial robes.

Yi Qingwu was also deeply moved, and she couldn't help but ask:

"May I pay my respects to the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets?"

She also wanted to have it calculated.

"The arising and ceasing of conditions are all within a single thought. Young lady, once you have come to terms with it, it means your destiny has arrived." The young Taoist shook his head.

Yi Qingwu must really hate the Riddler now, Qin Sheng thought to himself.

He didn't dislike them because the people from the Heavenly Mystery Sect didn't engage in riddles with him.

"How can I obtain a new Heavenly Secret Talisman?" Qin Sheng asked.

The Heavenly Mystery Sect is indeed very powerful. Qin Sheng hopes to maintain long-term contact with them so that he can come here to have his fortune told if he has any problems in the future.

"Three is perfect, four has already exceeded the limit, and we cannot have any more, otherwise the Heavenly Mystery Sect will surely suffer a calamity and its inheritance will be cut off."

"That's it..."

Qin Sheng felt a little regretful, but he wouldn't resort to force.

In the realm of celestial secrets and destiny, there are some normal rules. Before one has attained the Dao and become an emperor, and possesses the imperial power to resolve everything, it is best not to act recklessly.

"Please take your time, everyone."

The young Taoist turned around with his eyes closed and then flew away as if a ghost were chasing him.

This made Qin Sheng shake his head.

Without the courage to look directly at "Heaven", how can one understand the true meaning of divine secrets?

Tianjimen is inferior.

With a simple calculation, Dongxian can uncover the universe's greatest secret without suffering any backlash.

Who is the strongest divination master? It's obvious at a glance.

Watching the Taoist boy's retreating figure, the little girl muttered, "I want to play with him for a while longer."

Having finally met someone only a year older than herself, the little girl still longed for a playmate.

However, troubles come and go quickly. The little girl looked at the yellow paper in Qin Sheng's hand and asked curiously:
"Big brother, what's written on this piece of paper?"

"Nannan, take a look first." Qin Sheng handed the yellow paper to the little girl.

The little guy opened it, tilted his head to read it, and slowly said, "The immortals on the cliff above transform into feathers, the hidden stars and full moon of the night... what does this mean?"

"Nannan doesn't understand."

Yi Qingwu and Li Wan were also a little confused. These words sounded strange. What kind of veiled meaning was Tianji Sect trying to convey?
Qin Sheng glanced at the yellow paper, both amused and exasperated, and tapped the little girl on the head.

"You read it backwards. It should be: 'On the night of the full moon and hidden stars, on the Immortal Ascension Cliff!'"

Yi Qingwu and the other girl laughed. The little girl blushed deeply and buried her head in Qin Sheng's neck, her ears turning red.

"This points to the secrets of the Eastern Divine Continent, to the Feathered Immortal Cliff. What exactly did you ask the Heavenly Mystery Sect to calculate?"

"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed." Qin Sheng smiled.

I enjoy being a riddle teller.

What he wanted to know was, of course, the ancient scriptures of the gods.

When and where will the Temple of Longevity and the Palace of the Human King truly exchange places?
The Heavenly Secrets Sect was very helpful, providing the answer directly.

"The Immortal Ascension Cliff is the same location chosen in the original timeline. It seems that the Longevity Temple and the Human King Palace are trying to get a good omen and observe the secret of the gods' longevity at the place of ascension."

They love it.

But the name "Yu Hua" is not auspicious.

"The Heavenly Mystery Sect is truly amazing. What exactly are these so-called Heavenly Secrets and Heavenly Punishments?"

Li Wan was both amazed by the unpredictable abilities of the Tianji Sect and very curious.

"Perhaps it's a prediction of the trajectory of the Dao," Qin Sheng replied.

In such a world, the Tao is the source of all things and the foundation of everything.

Time, cause and effect, destiny, and so on are all contained within it. Whoever can glimpse even a corner of it may have seen the "secrets of heaven".

And divine retribution...

If one glimpses a corner of the Dao and leaks it out, thus altering the Dao's original trajectory, one will naturally be devoured by the power of the Dao.

Not entirely accurate, but a simple example: it's like a tree that's growing well there. If you cut it down, it could be dangerous when it falls.

They were frightened, suffered minor injuries, or were even crushed to death.

"The secrets of heaven are profound and mysterious, and difficult to fathom," Yi Qingwu shook her head.

As the biggest victim of contemporary esoteric practices, she feels she has a lot to say.

"In half a month, the moon will be full." Qin Sheng looked eastward.

"Let's conceal our tracks and slowly make our way to Immortal Cliff without being noticed by others."

This was a clue that Qin Sheng had worked hard to obtain, and he couldn't let others take advantage of it.

Quietly enter the cliff, don't fire.

In addition, Qin Sheng was also well aware that on the day the secret of the Word of the Changsheng Temple and the Human King Hall was exchanged, there would be many Great Accomplishment Kings, bringing with them sacred weapons, or even Great Sacred Weapons.

Such a lineup is enough to sweep through Ziwei, and even ten Demon Shark Clan members would be wiped out. Without a sage, they are invincible.

Every Grandmaster of Ziwei possesses the power of the Seven Forbidden Battles; they are no pushovers.

Add to that the Great Sage Weapon, and it becomes extremely difficult to deal with.

At that time, with the Sage's Armor and Purple Gourd on Qin Sheng's body, he would be more than capable of protecting himself, but it would be insufficient to seize the complete "Zhe" Secret amidst a pack of wolves.

Even because of the Fusang Divine Tree and other reasons, those Great Accomplishment Kings might unite to deal with Qin Sheng.

The allure of the Immortal Tree is no less than that of the Ancient Scripture of the Gods.

"I come from the Big Dipper with sincerity, solely to promote friendly communication between the two ancient stars."

"But the local experts in Ziwei are too impolite."

What can Qin Sheng do?
I had no choice but to explain the principles of the Big Dipper to those who had achieved great success.

A day later, as Qin Sheng was leisurely making his way to the Feathered Immortal Cliff, a strange feeling stirred within him.

Qin Sheng has died again.

Qin Sheng couldn't help but smile. Don't misunderstand, he wasn't smiling; he was just putting on the ruthless mask.
