Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

"Little Fish, you're too naive. Just because the Heavenly Scroll appears in the wasteland doesn't mean it must be in the Demon Sect. If it really is in the Demon Sect, why couldn't your Xiling's High Priest predict the existence of the Heavenly Scroll before?"

Where exactly is that "Ming" scroll of heavenly scripture?

Hinata Hoshino put his elbow on Ye Hongyu's shoulder and said, "The Ming Character Scroll has always been in Li Manman's hands. In fact, most people who have met Li Manman have seen the Ming Character Scroll."

"most?"

Ye Hongyu clearly didn't believe it. "How could that be?"

"Right on Li Manman's waist, there was what looked like a tattered book. Li Manman would often flip through the Ming character scroll of the Heavenly Book. They say it's darkest under the lamp, and that's true."

Ning Que recalled meeting Li Manman once when he left the academy. At that time, Li Manman seemed to want to exchange the Ming character scroll for the big black umbrella. Did this mean that he missed a great opportunity?

Hinata Hoshino sensed Ning Que's thoughts, "You guessed right, Li Manman did indeed want to exchange the Ming Scroll Heavenly Book for the Big Black Umbrella with you."

"I'm sorry for the mistake, let me feel bad for a while."

"Don't be sad. The book is with Li Manman. You can read it anytime they come back."

Hinata Hoshino looked at Rensheng Thirty-Two. Rensheng Thirty-Two, who originally wanted to ambush Ning Que or Ye Hongyu, had been behaving himself ever since Hinata Hoshino entered the place.

The thirty-two generals of Lian Sheng are vividly portrayed as bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong, and cowards who are afraid of death. Even though he has comprehended the connection between the Dao and the Demon and can communicate with the gods, this is why he is still inferior to Ke Haoran.

"Let's go."

Hinata Hoshino turned and left, but Renjuro Sanjuro mustered his courage and tried to persuade Hinata Hoshino to stay.

"and many more."

"What's the matter?"

"Could you let me see the true nature of the heavens?"

"what can you give me?"

My understanding of Haotian.

"That's not enough. Everything you have is mine, and I also want your life."

"it is good."

Lian Sheng Thirty-Two made up his mind. He had been timid all his life, but at the last moment, he mustered his courage. Perhaps it was because he had been there for too long and was tired of it.

Hinata Hoshino's true nature as the master of the world was revealed. Renshou Sanju stared at Hinata Hoshino, his eyes filled with Daoist wisdom, "If I hear the Dao in the morning, I can die content in the evening."

Hinata Hoshino reached out and grasped, and Rensheng Thirty-Two turned into dust bit by bit. His life's cultivation and insights transformed into a bead that fell into Hinata Hoshino's hand.

As if remembering something, Hinata Hoshino pointed to the wall and instructed Ning Que, "There is the legacy of Ke Haoran's Haoran Sword Intent left behind there. If you are interested, you two can go and take a look. Whether you can comprehend it depends entirely on luck."

Ning Que and Ye Hongyu sat cross-legged before the vast sword intent and began to comprehend it. Mo Shanshan comprehended the block formation on the outer edge, leaving Hyuga Hoshino somewhat bored.

Looking at the beads in his hand, Hinata Hoshino began to watch the memories of Lian Sheng Thirty-Two. A genius was born into the Lian Sheng family of Song State, accompanied by a water lily. He seemed out of place with the Lian Sheng family, who had been members of the Demon Sect for generations.

Later, when Lian Sheng Thirty-Two married, it was discovered that the Lian Sheng family belonged to the Demonic Sect. As a result, Lian Sheng Thirty-Two's father killed his wife, which became the trigger for Lian Sheng Thirty-Two's madness.

After that, he debated with the abbot of Lanke Temple and practiced Buddhism in Qishan. Later, he joined the Xiling Temple and became the High Priest of the Judgment Division. Under the orders of the Xiling Sect Leader, he joined the Demon Sect and became a powerful figure in the Demon Sect.

Then, he suddenly killed Jian Xiaoxiao and framed Xiling, but Ke Haoran discovered it, destroyed the Demon Sect, and imprisoned him at the Demon Sect's mountain gate.

Thinking about it carefully, Lian Sheng Thirty-Two's character is also a protagonist's story: he lost his wife at a young age, was exceptionally talented, and moved between multiple factions while holding high positions in all of them.

Hinata Hoshino began to comprehend Rensheng Thirty-Two's understanding of the Heavenly Book, Haotian, and realms.

On the surface, Lian Sheng Thirty-Two believed in Haotian, but in reality, he was unwilling to break through to the Heavenly Enlightenment Realm and become Haotian's loyal lackey. Therefore, Lian Sheng Thirty-Two's goal was to cross the Demonic Sect's Heavenly Demon Realm and the Daoist Sect's Nirvana Realm.

He had successfully navigated all the paths, and even traveled a considerable distance from them. After comprehending the connection between Tao and Demon, he vaguely sensed that he had touched upon the realm of purity.

It's somewhat useful to Hyuga Hoshino. To be honest, Hyuga Hoshino is still somewhat unclear about Haotian's background.

The birth of Haotian seems strange no matter how you look at it. According to the gambler's explanation that Haotian was awakened, Haotian has always existed in this world. So what is Haotian?

Careful recollection of the moon's formation process reveals a persistent hypothesis: a meteorite impact on the planet beneath our feet caused a portion of it to separate and form the moon.

According to this view, Haotian is more like the planetary consciousness that the moon should have originally given birth to. In other words, Haotian should be the moon. Thinking about it this way, it suddenly feels somewhat reasonable.

Hinata Hoshino shook his head, dismissing those thoughts. He put away Rensheng Thirty-Two's ashes; it was better to let Yu Lian handle them.

The sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth realms, except for the eighth and ninth realms, have multiple types and different mysteries.

Sixth Realm:

Without distance: Traveling through the gaps in the primordial energy of heaven and earth, as if shifting through space.

Annihilation: A special destructive power.

Boundless: Standing on the earth, it draws power and provides unparalleled defense.

Heavenly Demon: A world unto itself.

Seventh Realm:

Extraordinary: Ke Haoran entered this realm by relying on the Haoran Sword Intent, a power that transcends ordinary understanding.

Ascension: Unharmed by all things, existing between the realms of immortals and mortals.

Nirvana: the attainment of immortality between life and death.

Immortal: Unafraid of the laws of time of the heavens, possessing a powerful physique.

The eighth realm, Purity: This realm is isolated from the Haotian World, and nothing in the Haotian World can harm it.

The ninth realm, without rules: disregarding all rules of the Haotian world.

However, there are some bugs. For example, Haotian is only awakened after the gambler enters the Pure Realm. Before that, how did Haotian define the power that this realm should have?

However, all these realms are based on the existence of the Haotian World, which means that these realms essentially represent a part of the essence of Haotian.

At the age of thirty-two, Lian Sheng saw two scrolls of celestial books: the "Sun" scroll and the "Sand" scroll. There were seven scrolls in total: Open, Reversed, Heaven, Bright, Sand, Sunset, and Sun. Reading them backwards, it reads "Sunset, Sand, Bright, Reversed, Open." This foreshadows the true purpose of the celestial books: to change the world.

The Scroll of Opening can open a passage between the Haotian Divine Kingdom and the outside world. The Haotian Divine Kingdom covers the entire world. By using the Scroll of Opening, the Gate of Haotian and the Key of Haotian can be formed, allowing one to leave the Haotian world.

The inverted scroll foreshadows the future of the entire world, including Confucius transforming into the moon...

The Heavenly Scroll is divided into the Way of Haotian and the Law of Haotian, and can arbitrarily change the rules of the Haotian world.

The "Ming" scroll reveals the truth of the Haotian world, that the King of the Underworld is Haotian, thus enlightening people's wisdom.

The Sand Scroll contains all the martial arts techniques from around the world, as well as some general knowledge.

The Luozi Scroll is divided into "Under the Heavenly Emperor" and "Above the Daoist Sect," recording the history of the entire world and the origin of the Heavenly Emperor.

The "Sun" scroll records the cultivators of the Haotian World. It is divided into two pages: one page records those below the sixth realm, including the Knowing Destiny Ranking and the Cave Profound Ranking; the other page records those above the sixth realm, although some are not under Haotian's supervision and are therefore not included in the book. Furthermore, the "Sun" scroll will be updated regularly.

After reading the contents of the Heavenly Book within the memories of Lian Sheng Thirty-Two, Hyuga Hoshino pondered, "If the Heavenly Book can predict the future, then Haotian should be able to as well."

Therefore, there are two possibilities for Haotian's descent to the mortal realm. One is that Haotian cannot see the specific future and can only see a part of what he wants to see.

The second possibility is that Haotian can see the future completely, and she intentionally wants to become human.

Hinata Hoshino was a little confused. Haotian's situation was strange, as if he knew the future but couldn't help wanting to change it and try.

The ultimate goal is to make Haotian a real person. Take it slow, there's no rush.

Hinata Hoshino pondered for a moment before returning to the old library of the academy, where Yu Lian was still copying books as usual.

Chapter 318 Reading the Heavenly Book, Master Destroys the Moon

Upon seeing Hinata Hoshino, Yu Lian asked in an annoyed tone, "What brings you here?"

"I'm bringing you something."

"what?"

"The ashes of Lian Sheng at the age of thirty-two."

Hinata Hoshino placed an urn of ashes on the desk, startling Yu Lian. "Is this old monster obediently going to his death?"

"Pretty much. He wanted to see the sky, and the price was everything he had, including his life. He agreed without hesitation."

"If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening? It's laughable that someone who's grown old has become a seeker of the Way."

“I think he must have gotten tired of being locked in that dark room all the time, and with me around, he had no way to break free.”

"However, it is a good thing that you get what you want in the end."

Inside the Demon Sect's mountain gate, all was still silent. Ye Hongyu and Ning Que sat cross-legged, comprehending the Righteous Sword Intent.

To get a better look at the sword marks, the two lit a candle. The dim light shone on them and cast dappled shadows on the wall.

Lian Sheng Thirty-Two commented that Ke Haoran's Haoran Sword Intent deviated from Haotian's, which Ye Hongyu initially found difficult to accept. However, Ye Hongyu later stopped caring about it. The Haoran Sword Intent that Ke Haoran comprehended was different from the Haoran Sword Intent that Ye Hongyu already knew.

Vast and boundless, yet with a touch of elegance and untamed spirit, as if all rules were useless, even the rules of the heavens. Ye Hongyu finally understood the meaning of Lotus Birth Thirty-Two.

Obeying Haotian only allows one to enter the Heavenly Revelation Realm. To break through to the sixth realm, one must turn away from Haotian, because Haotian's rules do not allow any other sixth realm besides Heavenly Revelation.

Ning Que was also immersed in comprehension, but his focus was different from Ye Hongyu's. As a modern person, Ning Que had a different perspective on the four words "righteous sword intent".

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, causing the candlelight to flicker. Ye Hongyu was the first to comprehend the Righteous Sword Intent, a state of mind that fears nothing and transcends everything.

Ning Que then opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them. Compared to Ye Hongyu, Ning Que's cultivation time was still shorter, so after Ning Que comprehended the Righteous Sword Intent, the aura he carried changed drastically. Ning Que described it as the aura of a former academy disciple who had fallen into demonic possession.

Ning Que was somewhat amused and exasperated. Comparisons are odious. Not to mention the incredibly strong Hyuga Hoshino, even Ye Hongyu in front of him was beyond his reach.

Why don't you have the aura of someone possessed by a demon?

"I have been cultivating for longer than you, so it is easier for me to conceal these auras."

As the two were talking, they suddenly felt a weight on their bodies, and at the same time, it felt as if a large stone was pressing down on their chests. Ye Hongyu was the first to recognize what it was.

"The Block Formation?"

What is the Block Array?

"The Block Formation is the name of the formation made up of those stones that we just saw."

"A thousand years ago, the High Priest of Light who founded the Demon Sect poured his resentment into the great formation, venting his dissatisfaction with Haotian through silence and sharp edges. His resentment formed a grudge."

Hinata Hoshino returned from the academy and happened to meet three people who had simultaneously succeeded in comprehending the teachings, which was somewhat unexpected.

"I didn't expect that the three of you would finish your meditation around the same time. That's interesting."

As Mo Shanshan entered, she heard Hinata Hoshino praising the three of them, and felt a surge of joy.

After the four of them left through the mini version of the Anywhere Door, the pink door disappeared with the wind, and Ning Que looked at the pink door with some regret.

Hinata Hoshino shook his head. "Greed knows no bounds. If you really want to run rampant, you might as well work on your academy's Boundless Realm. However, as the old saying goes, you will most likely advance to the Heavenly Revelation Realm."
