Chapter 471: Shaohao, Xingtian

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“I didn’t expect someone to arrive before us.”

“Fellow Daoist, you look unfamiliar.”

The two men who walked into the Daoist temple stared at Jiang Changsheng and said. Their temperament was completely different. The black-robed man’s eyes were filled with provocation while the white-robed man’s eyes were filled with curiosity.

Jiang Changsheng cupped his hands and said, “I am Changsheng. Greetings, fellow Daoists.’

The white-robed man returned the greeting and said, “My name is Shaohao. Greetings, Fellow Daoist Changsheng.”

Shaohao?

Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows. Wasn’t he the son of the Yellow

Emperor from ancient China?

Furthermore, he was the eldest son!

The black-robed man snorted. “My name is Xingtian!”

Xingtian?

That name was like thunder to the ears. Because of their names, Jiang Changsheng was now very interested in them.

Could it be that the legends of ancient China were not fabricated, or were they legends left behind by them?

Shaohao smiled and said, “Let’s sit down and have a chat. Xingtian and I met on the way here.”

Jiang Changsheng nodded and sat on the cushion on the right. Shaohao sat in the middle while Xingtian sat on the left.

He began to quietly listen to their conversation.

Shaohao and Xingtian came from two different tribes. Shaohao was the son of the Yellow Emperor and Xingtian was a soldier under the Flame Emperor. The two tribes were preparing to join hands, so the two of them were on good terms. After they met along the way, they rushed over to listen to the sermon.

From their conversation, their tribes were larger than the tribes Jiang Changsheng knew. They were even larger than the Luck Dynasties in the Kunlun Field, but it did not have the imperial family system.

Jiang Changsheng heard them mention many places, such as the Earth

Immortal Realm, the Dong Sheng Divine Province, the Beidou Immortal Realm, the West Heaven Region, and so on. Many places had never appeared in myths and legends in his previous life.

“Fellow Daoist Changsheng, where are you from? You can actually listen to the sermon of Great Paragon Ksitigarbha. You are definitely not simple.”

Xingtian suddenly looked at Jiang Changsheng. His tone was thought-provoking and his gaze was extremely aggressive.

Jiang Changsheng answered, “It’s all fate.”

Even though this was just the past, he still patiently conversed with other Dao seekers because everything felt too real. If Fairy Xiaohe could remember him, it meant that others could too. If he could form good karma with them, perhaps he would receive some good fortune in the future.

“Hahaha, it is fate that we are all gathered here. We are all kindred spirits. In the future, I would like to invite both of you to my tribe to drink some Grand Celestial Wine.”

Shaohao smiled warmly. As he spoke, he reached out and patted Jiang Changsheng on the shoulder.

Xingtian curled his lips and said, “Young Clan Head, you are so generous. It’s our first time meeting, and you’re already using the Grand Immortal Wine as an invitation. It seems like the Yellow Emperor has indulged you.”

“Doesn’t the Flame Emperor think highly of you as well? He even handed over the Celestial Emperor’s inheritance to you.”

Shaohao shook his head and laughed. The two of them began to bicker.

Jiang Changsheng found it interesting. The two of them were showing a lot of brotherly affection. Even though Xingtian spoke rashly, it was evident that Shaohao was the leader.

He suddenly remembered a legend. It was said that the Yellow Emperor and Xingitan were competing for the position of Celestial Emperor. If that legend was true, wouldn’t Shaohao, the son of the Yellow Emperor, turn against Xingtian?

He only thought about it and did not point it out. After all, he did not belong to this era. He did not want to interfere in anything of this era. He only wanted to become stronger.

After a while.

A figure appeared out of thin air in front of the three of them and sat on the cushion.

He was a skinny man in a Daoist robe. He looked to be in his forties. His eyes were sunken and deep, giving off a gloomy feeling.

This was Great Paragon Ksitigarbha?

When Jiang Changsheng heard the name of Great Paragon Ksitigarbha, he had an image of him in his mind. However, the image of Great Paragon Ksitigarbha was completely different from him.

“Greetings, Great Paragon Ksitigarbha!”

Shaohao and Xingtian bowed in unison. Jiang Changsheng reacted quickly and bowed in unison without missing a beat.

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha swept his gaze across the three of them before his gaze landed on Jiang Changsheng. “You cultivate the Karma Dao, but there’s so little karma on you. Fated person, why are you here?”

Shaohao and Xingtian looked at Jiang Changsheng.

Facing Great Paragon Ksitigarbha’s gaze, Jiang Changsheng said, “I came to become stronger. I just want to continue living.”

After he said that, he regretted it. He should have said it more nicely so that the expert would not think that he was vulgar.

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha nodded and did not ask further. He began to preach.

What he talked about was not the Dao of karma, but the Dao of reincarnation!

This surprised Jiang Changsheng, but he was also looking forward to it.

Finally, he could begin to cultivate other Great Daos. Even though he had yet to succeed in the Dao of karma, it might be more helpful to comprehend other Great Daos.

Reincarnation was related to karma. The two combined and enhanced each other.

“The Heavenly Dao is connected to the netherworld, the Heavenly Dao is reincarnated. The body is destroyed, the soul exists, the cycle of reincarnation is endless, and the Nine Nether exists forever…

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha’s voice pulled Jiang Changsheng into a state of comprehension.

It was as if he was in the netherworld. The surroundings were dim and countless souls wandered around. Some were suffering, some were happy, and some were at a loss.

This Nine Nether was filled with karma, and there was a deeper power that maintained it.

The law of reincarnation!

Perhaps it was because of his achievements in the Dao of karma, but Jiang Changsheng’s comprehension of the Dao of reincarnation was very easy. At the very least, it was easier than comprehending the Dao of karma.

The sermon continued. Jiang Changsheng was immersed in it and forgot everything else.

This sermon was longer and richer than he expected.

During the process, Great Paragon Ksitigarbha also imparted a Divine Power.

Ksitigarbha Reincarnation Palm!

This palm was firm and fierce, and it could destroy powerful enemies in one motion. If the enemy could not be directly suppressed, it would also dispel the law of reincarnation on the other party’s soul, making it impossible for them to reincarnate forever. It was even impossible for them to preserve the characteristics of their soul. In other words, once their physical body was destroyed, their soul would directly appear. Even mortals could directly attack their soul.

What a domineering Divine Power!

There was also a special effect!

It was similar to the Karma Divine Power taught by Fairy Xiaohe, but it was stronger, as it was mainly used to launch direct attacks.

Time passed by quickly.

When Jiang Changsheng slowly woke up, Great Paragon Ksitigarbha’s voice had disappeared.

He opened his eyes and saw Great Paragon Ksitigarbha.

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha was staring at him with an indifferent expression.

Jiang Changsheng subconsciously looked to his side. Shaohao and Xingtian had yet to wake up. Shaohao had a bitter expression while Xingtian had an excited expression.

Jiang Changsheng could not tell if he was better or inferior to Shaohao and Xingtian.

“The signs of your reincarnation are very long, and there are still two long periods.”

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha stared at Jiang Changsheng and coldly said.

Puzzled, Jiang Changsheng asked, “Senior, what do you mean?” Did the two long periods refer to his two lives?

This life was indeed long, but he had died young in his previous life.

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha replied, “It’s hard to separate karma and reincarnation. Karma leads to reincarnation, but reincarnation is more oppressive. You are only in the Taiyi Realm and should not have cultivated two Daos at the same time. Fortunately, you are smart enough to choose the two

Daos that complement each other.”

“Thank you for your praise, Senior. It’s mainly because of your outstanding sermon that I have a deep understanding of it.”

Jiang Changsheng sighed from the bottom of his heart. Great Paragon Ksitigarbha seemed unreasonable, but the content of his sermon was very rich and he had dabbled in a wide range of knowledge. Not to mention the Dao of reincarnation, it was also helpful for his future cultivation.

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha said, “You seem to be puzzled. Take advantage of this karma and ask away.”

Jiang Changsheng was overjoyed when he heard that. He quickly thanked him and revealed his doubts about cultivation.

“Your cultivation technique is not simple. It is very pure, but it is also filled with tolerance. I have never heard of it before. Your confusion is actually very simple. Because it is too tolerant, it does not have any direction.”

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha frowned. He was obviously shocked by the Dao Technique. Even though Jiang Changsheng only mentioned the characteristics of the cultivation technique, it was enough to shock him.

Jiang Changsheng felt that it made sense. The previous chapters of the Dao Technique had a direction that guided him to where to cultivate. However, that was not the case right now. He cultivated the Karma Dao because the Karma Dao was vast enough for him to continue cultivating and help him become stronger.

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha said, “A long time ago, Dao techniques had yet to appear, let alone the Immortal Dao. How do you think the existence who founded the Immortal Dao and created Dao techniques opened their own realm?”

Jiang Changsheng fell into deep thought.

Creation?

“All the unknown stages are based on imagination. You have to work hard to achieve the power you want to reach, not wait to reach a certain realm and obtain the power of that realm. Realms are the stages of strength for cultivators, and it does not exist independently.”

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha’s words enlightened Jiang Changsheng.

He was a game creator in his previous life, and he had dabbled in countless fantasy content. Asking him to make up realms and fantasize about power was something he was good at.

After experiencing so many things in this life, his horizons had long been broadened. The power he could imagine was naturally greater and more inconceivable.

Jiang Changsheng could combine his strength to imagine how powerful the next realm would be and work hard towards that goal.

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha added, “Such an inclusive and profound cultivation technique, perhaps compatibility with the Great Dao is your goal.”

Jiang Changsheng nodded and said, “Thank you for your guidance, senior.” Great Paragon Ksitigarbha shook his head and looked at Jiang Changsheng with a deep gaze.

“The reason why I am guiding you is because I see what you are carrying. It turns out that everything has an end, but the end is not the end, just like this cycle.”

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha said unhurriedly, which shocked Jiang Changsheng.

Could it be that Great Paragon Ksitigarbha saw the fate of the Immortal Dao in him?

Fairy Xiaohe seemed to have seen through that.

In the Immortal Dao, there were so many experts who could pry into the future of the Immortal Dao, but they could not change it. Could it be that there were fates and calamities that could not be changed?

“Don’t worry. Walk your own path.”

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha said calmly. However, his expression was no longer as serious as before. Instead, there was a trace of kindness.

Jiang Changsheng’s Dao heart was affected by the change in his expression. He could not help but ask, “I wonder if senior knows the Kunlun Leader, Ancestor

Xuan Ti, and Fairy Xiaohe?”

These three were the lords of the dojos he had visited before.

Great Paragon Ksitigarbha replied, “Of course I’ve heard of them. However, they are too far away. Some live high above the world and are not affected by karma, while others died over the years.”

Someone had died?

Jiang Changsheng frowned, but he did not ask who it was.

No matter who it was, to the current him, they were all already dead.

At that moment, Shaohao and Xingtian’s connection with the law of reincarnation was cut off, indicating that they were about to wake up.

Jiang Changsheng only glanced at them. When he turned around, Great Paragon Ksitigarbha was already gone..
