The Three Teachings Converge into One: The Path of the Mortal and the Saintly is the Same

Poetry:

The precious treasure is remelted to open the path, and deep affection is continued to guide us through the mortal world.

Who says the sealing of demons is a thing of the past? The three religions have found a new home.

Speaking of which, this time, Su Qingxuan was in the fragments of his ancestor's memories...

I saw the whole truth…

The ancestor sacrificed himself to seal the Demon Lord.

The immeasurable power generated by the disintegration of his body did not dissipate; instead, guided by Su Lie's final will,

Divided into three:

Part of it was forcibly suppressed and neutralized, thus suppressing most of the power of the Demon Lord's detonation of the Chaos Demon Core.

It then ruthlessly suppressed its remaining body and the raging demonic energy, sending it back to the depths of the Ruins.

With the newly formed "Three Teachings Seal" as the core, an eternal seal was constructed.

However, the Demon Lord's counterattack before his death was no small matter, and the "Three Religions Seal" suffered heavy damage.

Unable to maintain its newly fused state, it let out a mournful cry.

It split again into Spring and Autumn Bamboo Slips, Mountain and River Seals, and Bodhi Spirit Wood.

The three treasures, their brilliance dimmed, fell to the dust.

However, at its core, indelible marks of fusion and sealing hubs have been left.

The power of the second part, which was used to disintegrate the body, transformed into the purest spiritual essence of the three religions, which was then showered upon the shattered Three Realms.

Wherever it passed, the shattered mountains and rivers began to mend, and the impure spiritual energy was purified.

The dying creatures regained their life, and the disordered laws of heaven and earth gradually returned to normal.

This is Su Lie using his own Dao fruit to nourish the Three Realms and prolong their lives.

And finally, and most importantly.

A portion of the power of disintegration, along with that wisp of undying true spirit,

Encompassing Su Lie's complete memories, insights, and plans,

And his final lingering affection and expectations for the four women and the future of the Three Realms.

Silently traversing the river of time and space, following the mysterious cause and effect of bloodlines.

It was cast into the future, ten thousand years later, into an unborn fetus of the Su family in the human realm—

That was something he had deduced and planned out using his supreme supernatural powers as early as 100,000 years ago.

The purest bloodline descendant, his true "return" form!

"...My descendants...are also...myself..."

Su Lie's last thoughts, filled with endless expectation and entrustment, slowly dissipated.

"My lord—!!!" The four women witnessed Su Lie's body and soul perish.

Only three dimly lit treasures and a newly formed seal remained, leaving him utterly devastated.

Overwhelmed by immense grief and despair, they were instantly engulfed.

"No... my lord won't really die..."

He once said, "If there is an afterlife... I will never betray you..."

Wenqing Immortal Lord murmured, a glimmer of mad hope igniting in his eyes.

She suddenly looked at the three precious treasures that had fallen.

Sensing the lingering aura within, which shared the same origin as Su Lie's,

And that barely perceptible, undying pull.

"I understand!" True Monarch Qingxi was also exceptionally intelligent and instantly realized the truth.

"Before his death, the lord infused his true spirit and memories into the Three Treasures and cast them into the future!"

He's been planning this for ten thousand years! He wants to...

"Return someday in the future, in another form!"

"Only by connecting with our Lord through the most profound and undying true spirit can we achieve this."

They are also entrusted to these three treasures, and sleep alongside the true spirit of the Lord.

We each reincarnate and wait, only to be able to return after ten thousand years.

Reunited with the reincarnation of their lord, they will continue their past romance!

Lotus Moon Bhikkhuni clasped her hands together, tears welling in her eyes with a smile.

That is the liberation and steadfastness that comes from understanding cause and effect and seeing through life and death.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Li Ying, the Goddess of War, wiped the blood and tears from her face.

"Our lord did not hesitate to sacrifice himself, and laid out a plan for ten thousand years, all for the future of the Three Realms."

What do our little romantic feelings amount to?

So what if one is martyred? So what if one is reincarnated for ten thousand years?

If only I could meet my lord again, stay by his side, and help him complete his unfinished business.

Even if it means my soul is scattered and my spirit is destroyed, I will not hesitate!

The four women looked at each other and saw the same resolute determination and deep affection in each other's eyes.

Without further ado, they simultaneously ignited their own Great Luo Dao Fruits and Undying True Spirits.

They transformed into four dazzling streams of light and plunged into the three supreme treasures without hesitation!

"Wenqing (Qingxi, Lianyue, Liying), is willing to follow the lord."

I would die without regret, and await the judgment of posterity!

The four immortal true spirits merged, and the three treasures trembled slightly.

As if carrying the longing and vows of eternity, its spiritual light completely concealed itself.

It fell into the deepest slumber, waiting for 100,000 years later.

The one who can awaken them, the one who can bear all the causes and missions, will appear.

On the battlefield, the three saints witnessed Su Lie's death and the martyrdom of four women.

They were all deeply saddened and bowed deeply before the three treasures and the newly formed seal.

Subsequently, the three saints joined forces to stabilize the seal, clean up the mess, and rebuild order.

He then used his great supernatural powers to send the three treasures to the Su family in the human realm.

However, after this battle, the three religions were also severely weakened.

Internal conflicts have resurfaced due to issues such as resource allocation and ideological differences.

As they drifted further apart, they sowed the seeds of a rift that would last for ten thousand years.

Although the Demon Lord was sealed away, his influence has not disappeared.

The evil causes in the minds of all beings in the Three Realms have not been eliminated, and the danger of the seal loosening has long been destined.

"boom--!!!"

Within the Guizhen Cave, Su Qingxuan's body trembled violently, and he suddenly opened his eyes, two lines of clear tears silently sliding down his cheeks.

Those were not tears of sorrow, but tears of profound understanding, carrying the weight of eternity, and deep gratitude.

All the memories, all the images, all the emotions...

All the planning and sacrifices.

At this moment, it was completely and clearly imprinted deep within his soul.

He, Su Qingxuan, is none other than the Sage Su Lie who disbanded the Dao ten thousand years ago and laid out a plan for ten thousand years!

No, to be more precise, it was Su Lie who, with his supreme divine power,

It entrusts all true spirit, memory, mission, and the body of the longing for "return".

He is the continuation of Su Lie, another blossoming of Su Lie's life.

This was the most crucial move Su Lie made to settle the karmic debts and completely resolve the demonic calamity!

At the same time, the three treasures have achieved a 99% restoration rate.

Su Qingxuan's memories have fully awakened.

At this moment when the four female spirits resonated completely...

Finally, the last barrier was broken, and the precious light soared into the sky.

Intertwined and merged on the dome of the cave!

The golden, blue, and white rays of light blended together seamlessly, making it difficult to distinguish one from the other.

Ultimately, it transformed into a large seal that was ancient and profound, with three colors flowing around it and a natural Taoist charm.

It slowly fell into Su Qingxuan's palm—

The seals of the Three Teachings have returned to the world!

Its power is vast, far surpassing that of ordinary innate spiritual treasures.

It possesses the aura of suppressing all heavens and ruling over all paths.

As the Three Teachings Seal reappeared, Su Qingxuan's cultivation level surged once again.

He broke through the bottleneck of the later stages of the Great Luo era and reached the peak of the Great Luo era!

Moreover, he was not an ordinary peak Great Luo Immortal; his Dao Fruit contained...

The true meanings of the three religions are completely integrated, without any further hindrance.

They have already touched the threshold of that supreme "sacred" realm!

Once you pass the final hurdle, you can truly enter the state of sanctity where the three religions are united.

He achieved the same level of attainment as Su Lie ten thousand years ago.

Almost at the same moment.

The four women, seated in the four directions, were also because their true spirits had been fully awakened.

The memories of past and present lives were completely integrated, and their aura exploded outwards.

They all broke through to the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm!

Moreover, their attainments also carry the accumulation of their past lives and the insights gained in this life.

Its foundation is incredibly solid, and it's only a hair's breadth away from reaching its later stages.

The four women opened their beautiful eyes one after another, their expressions incredibly complex.

It holds the vicissitudes of ten thousand years of complex memories through reincarnation.

There was a sudden realization that all memories of a past life had been fully restored.

There was boundless joy in the reunion.

There was a shock at learning the whole truth.

There is also a deep affection and pity for Su Lie, who transcended life and death and orchestrated a plan that spans millennia.

A myriad of emotions ultimately transformed into clear tears.

With eyes as deep as the sea,

Everyone focused their attention on the figure in the center.

Su Qingxuan, holding the Three Teachings Seal, slowly rose to his feet.

His gaze met the eyes of each of the four women.

No words are needed; everything is already clear.

"Wanqing, Lingxi, Lingyue, Chiying..."

Su Qingxuan spoke, his voice somewhat hoarse, carrying the weight of millennia.

"I...I'm back. And finally, I understand."

"My lord..." Lin Wanqing choked up, subconsciously calling out the title from her previous life, but then changed her address.

"Young Master... no, Qingxuan..." She no longer knew how to address him.

A love affair spanning ten thousand years, intertwined across two lifetimes, the person before me.

He was Su Lie, the master she had sworn to follow and loved to the bone in her previous life.

And there is Su Qingxuan, my Daoist companion with whom I share a deep and profound love in this life.

Xiao Lingxi threw herself into Su Qingxuan's arms and hugged him tightly.

Sobbing uncontrollably, she cried, "I knew it... I knew you wouldn't really abandon us..."

Ten thousand years of reincarnation, so long...so long...

Xiao Lingyue clasped her hands together, her eyes glistening with tears, yet filled with a profound compassion and joy:

"The lotus moon in the past life, the lingyue in this life.

"My lord, we have finally... truly reunited."

Chi Ying clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white, and tears streamed down her heroic face.

But she forced a smile, just like the valiant female warrior of yesteryear:

"My lord, no, my lord!"

This time, you can't abandon us again!

We promised to live and die together, never to be separated again!

Su Qingxuan pulled all four women into his arms...

The Three Teachings Seal hovered above their heads, casting a soft, three-colored light that enveloped the five people.

He was filled with emotion, deeply moved by the tragic sacrifice of his ancestors (who were also himself).

There is pity for the four women who have waited for eternity.

There is a heavy burden of the unresolved demonic calamity, but also a firm resolve for the future.

"It won't happen again, it will never happen again," Su Qingxuan solemnly promised.

"Ten thousand years ago, I failed to keep my promise, betrayed deep affection, and left behind the consequences."

In this life, I, Su Qingxuan, will surely fulfill my promise!

The five of us are united in life and death, never to be separated again!

After a long while, the five of them calmed down and sat down together on the platform.

Su Qingxuan will awaken all his memories.

Especially Su Lie's final plans and insights before his death.

He explained the details to the four women.

"That's right." Lin Wanqing listened thoughtfully.

"In that battle 100,000 years ago, the Demon Lord was actually the embodiment of the concept of 'demon'."

It cannot be killed, only sealed away.

The lord sacrificed his life to forcibly seal the Demon Lord.

However, this also forged the deepest bond between him and the Demon Lord, and with the karma of these ten thousand years.

This bond lies not only in the struggle against the Great Dao, but also in... the five of us.

Su Qingxuan nodded: "That's right. Our ancestors perished, and you all died for your cause."

The true spirit resides in the Three Jewels, reincarnating for ten thousand years; this is the great cause and effect of heaven.

This cause and effect is a debt of love, and also a debt of morality.

Without repayment, there is no fulfillment; for both of us, the path to enlightenment remains incomplete.

When faced with the final showdown with the Demon Lord, they will inevitably suffer the consequences and repeat the same mistakes.

It might even... trigger an even greater catastrophe.

Xiao Lingxi frowned:

"so……

Young master and I must return to the human realm to settle this karmic debt of love.

How exactly should I do it? Are there any hints from my ancestors' memories?

Su Qingxuan pondered and said, "I have vague clues in my memory, but they are not detailed."

All I know is that I must return to the human world, and in the mortal realm, experience life and death again, and reaffirm our love.

The cause of "death" 100,000 years ago has been transformed into the result of "being together" in this life.

Only in this way can the chain of cause and effect be completely severed, allowing me to be separated from you.

And the seals of the three religions, to achieve true perfection and completeness.

Perhaps only then will a way to completely break the seal on the Demon Lord be found.

Xiao Lingyue said softly, "Amitabha. Tribulations must be overcome, karma must be settled; this is destiny. But..."

Why must we return to the human realm? Why not the celestial realm?

"The human realm is the foundation of the three realms, the source of all living beings, where the atmosphere of mortal life is strongest and the cause and effect are most evident."

Su Qingxuan explained, "Moreover, my bloodline originates from the Su family in the human realm."

That place is the starting point of my ancestors' and my lives, and also the key point of this cycle of cause and effect.

Only there can the most fundamental causal force be activated.

To complete the final perfection and transformation. Furthermore…

He paused, a deep light flashing in his eyes.

"The ancestral memories suggest that returning to the human world is solely to settle karmic debts."

It seems... there is an even more important mission and opportunity.

The ultimate key to completely eliminating the evil scourge.

However, the secrets of heaven are shrouded in mystery, and the time is not yet ripe to fully comprehend them.

"When the time comes, you will naturally know."

Chi Ying clenched her fist: "Then let's go! We don't care about mountains of knives or seas of fire!"

Facing karmic trials together, we will overcome them!

"Yes, let's go together." Su Qingxuan grasped the hands of the four women one by one, his gaze firm.

"However, this matter requires careful planning."

The five of us descended to the mortal realm at the same time, and we were required to seal our cultivation and memories.

Re-entering the mortal world as an ordinary person, experiencing birth, aging, sickness, death, love, hate, and grudges.

Only then can we truly initiate, refine, resolve, and perfect cause and effect.

This process is extremely dangerous; the slightest mistake could lead to disaster.

They might then become lost in the mundane world and lose their true selves.

Even though we are Great Luo True Spirits, immortal and indestructible.

But if one becomes entangled in the mortal world and undergoes another hundred thousand years of reincarnation,

It's not impossible...

If cultivation and memories remain dormant...

That would be equivalent to... truly perishing!

The four goddesses looked solemn, yet showed no fear whatsoever.

Having waited through countless reincarnations, why fear this mortal tribulation?

Moreover, they had confidence in themselves and in Su Qingxuan.

"Furthermore, matters concerning the celestial realm must also be properly arranged."

Su Qingxuan continued, "After we leave, the Three Religions Coordination Office cannot be without a leader."

It needs to be entrusted to a reliable person.

The disciples of the Sanyi Palace also need someone to lead and guide them, and to deal with any possible changes.

And what about my parents...

Lin Wanqing said:

"Master Guangchengzi is highly respected for his virtue and character, and Elders Qingbing, Konghe, and Huiming have now completely submitted to his cause."

The Assistant Directorate can be jointly managed by them without any problems.

In the Sanyi Palace, Changfeng is steady and reliable, while Ruolin is meticulous; they can be entrusted with palace affairs.

Five elders, Xuanqing, Liaochen, Yunmiaozi, Longyuan, and Lingxu, were stationed there.

"As for your uncle and aunt..." she looked at Su Qingxuan.

Su Qingxuan said, "I will go to our parents' place with you personally."

This descent to the mortal realm is to settle karmic debts and seek a way to resolve the demonic tribulation.

But it is also a dangerous journey, and they need to be informed, but we cannot worry them too much.

With the plan settled, the five of them then jointly deduced the secrets of heaven.

Su Qingxuan activated the Three Teachings Seal, and the four women each used their supernatural powers to assist him.

A timeline is faintly visible in the hazy mist of celestial secrets.

The best time will be fifty years from now!

At that time, the stars in the Three Realms will enter a special cyclical window where "yin and yang are in disarray and cause and effect are most evident".

The laws of heaven and earth will minimize the restrictions on crossing realms, especially for high-level cultivators descending to the lower realms.

Moreover, the karmic energy in the mortal world is most active, making it perfect for them to attract and overcome tribulations.

"Fifty years...that's enough time for us to arrange everything."

Su Qingxuan put away the Three Teachings Seal, stood tall, and looked out of the cave.

My gaze seemed to pierce through layers of void, revealing a familiar yet strange world.

"For the next fifty years, we will cherish and spend quality time with our parents."

He instructed his disciples to stabilize the situation in the celestial realm.

At the same time, thorough preparations must be made for the lower realm.

The four women nodded in agreement.

They knew that their descent to the mortal realm was not for leisure.

Rather, it is a life-or-death ordeal concerning personal fulfillment and the safety of the three realms.

But they felt no fear, only anticipation and determination.

After ten thousand years of reincarnation, they have finally met again.

And together we will face the final cause and effect and mission.

The five people smiled at each other and walked out of Guizhen Cave hand in hand.

Outside the cave, the sun shone brightly, and the bells of the Trinity Palace rang melodiously.

The faint sounds of two hundred thousand disciples practicing could be heard, creating a peaceful atmosphere.

However, Su Qingxuan and the four women knew in their hearts that beneath this peaceful facade...

It is a turbulent undercurrent of demonic calamity, an unresolved cause and effect from ancient times.

And they are about to do this to protect this peace and to put an end to everything.

Stepping back into the bustling world,

Having experienced that calamity that should have been resolved a hundred thousand years ago...

It is:

Having weathered countless tribulations, we recount our past lives and repent for our transgressions.

Temporarily concealing his supernatural powers and returning to the mortal world, he once again takes his long sword and enters the clouds and mist.
