Chapter 810 - 423: Three Primordials Returning to Truth
Humans will blindly worship beings stronger and superior to themselves.
Because although some people actively fall into the Void Abyss, walk towards darkness, and step into the wilderness to pursue the twinkling stars on the horizon like madmen.
But the vast majority of people are still just weak, gregarious creatures born on this earth.
Suddenly facing the endless wilderness, suddenly facing the too vast universe, suddenly losing the warm and familiar shelter, without blind following, they cannot survive, without forming groups, they cannot feel at ease.
Without the guidance of a leader, without the protection of the strong, without the command of a chief, a lonely person would be lost in the void of darkness, immersed in infinite loneliness and indescribable fear, unable to extricate themselves.
Therefore, for those entrusted with ’leadership’, if they know they are not strong enough or capable enough to lead the group, to escape the heavy pressure brought by this responsibility, they will seek stronger individuals than themselves.
And once they leave their comfort zone, their familiar hunting ground, once they enter a broader world, those higher-up powerful beings blindly followed will inevitably feel at a loss, involuntarily seeking the leadership of stronger, more superior beings.
In this way, all kings could be born, in this way, all gods could be born.
In this way, the person at the pinnacle could be born.
"Why is she looking at me like that?"
Being gazed at with infinite admiration and autumn-like eyes by Ci Yun, Tie Dan was puzzled and turned his head to ask.
"Gah? Asking me?"
Crane Child was picking up the trash scattered around by Tie Dan and scratching his head upon hearing the question, saying,
"Uh, probably overwhelmed by the sect leader’s divine power, and taken by their charms, in heat?
Everyone back in our place is like this. Whether human, beast, or demon, they all like to mate with strong ones."
Tie Dan looked doubtfully at the scholar who was making tea and fetching water.
The scholar shivered, hurriedly saying,
"No, no, no, I also feel overwhelmed, I also feel taken, it’s just that students don’t engage in these things..."
Tie Dan gave him a sidelong glance, extending a hand,
"Let me see."
The scholar was startled, but being clever, he knew what Tie Dan referred to and took out a golden box, a Daoist book, a volume of the artifact catalogue, and a roll of silk from his bosom, offering them respectfully,
"This student, Qing Guang, was fortunate to obtain the Immortal Fate Dao Book, being a novice in Daoism, self-explored to the Nascent Soul Realm, struggling without a guide afterward, frequently visiting Ci Yun Temple to borrow the Daoist Collection.
This magic treasure is called the Sanmei Divine Celestial Net, crafted by me and Iron Sword Divine Nun according to the method recorded in the artifact catalogue, for self-defense. Willing to offer it to the Immortal."
Ci Yun quickly came over to interject,
"Master, please allow me to report, this Artifact Refining Manual indeed is of the top-notch Path of Artifact Refining, many of its techniques are unprecedented, quite valuable, but many of the strange treasures and Heavenly Materials are on the verge of extinction nowadays, many powerful treasures can no longer be crafted.
However, this Sanmei Divine Celestial Net is impervious to knives and guns, invulnerable to hundred harm, truly has unparalleled Divine Skills, luckily in my Chengyun Pavilion, there’s an old stock of a roll of Golden Spider Bright Thread, a piece of Yimu Immortal Vine, and also I learned when visiting the Immortal Palace that there’s a piece of Ice Soul Silk in the East King’s Mansion, now that the entire Eastern Country is engulfed by the rebel army, amidst the chaos of war, we plan to join hands and retrieve it, after further refining for sixty years, it will be completed."
Having just witnessed Tie Dan effortlessly wipe out a group, and considering they couldn’t even defeat the mount of this individual, Qing Guang Scholar, now having his secrets exposed, couldn’t resist, only wearing a bitter expression while waiting for judgment, thinking he’s fallen into great misfortune, losing Taoist treasures, only hoping to keep his life, leaving the green hill in wait, without fear of no wood to burn, better stay away from nuns in the next life, damn unlucky...
Unexpectedly, Tie Dan flipped through the Artifact Catalogue, calculated with fingers, and had a verdict,
"I see, you indeed have a connection with the Xiaoyao Sect."
"Ah!"
Upon hearing this, Qing Guang thought, oh no, the Demon Path label has been attached, fearing being silenced, utterly destroyed, immediately went limp and collapsed to the ground.
"Huh?"
Ci Yun, on the other hand, was puzzled, just thinking, is this guy also from the Xiaoyao Sect? Why doesn’t she know about him?
Tie Dan, not bothered to deceive them, casually returned all those Daoist treasure books back to them.
"Among the Nine Branches of Leisure Sect, there is a lineage called Leisure Exquisite Pavilion, belonging to an Artifact Refining Sect, specializing in magic treasure crafting.
However, though said to belong to the Carefree Lineage, it was actually created by your sect’s founder, the Nine Heavens Immortal Monarch, who swept the Immortal Palace Treasure Vault, and the Daoist Secret Manuals of treasure making from the Imperial Bureau. Thus, rather than calling it as part of the Leisure Sect, it’s closer to the Ancient Taoist Sect, not only mentioning these strange treasures, but the crafting method of the Immortal Palace itself should also be there.
Your esteemed self ought to be a reincarnation of the Ancient Immortal of Linglong Pavilion, regardless of past connections, now you’ve been reincarnated after Soldier Disintegration, moreover, there’s no longer the path of Leisure in this Daoist book, while these Taoist treasures and artifact catalogue are indeed what you researched and attained yourself, naturally, there’s nothing disreputable about it.
Coincidentally, I also visited the sect relics of your esteemed Linglong Pavilion, gained some benefits, and received much inspiration and guidance on the Path of Artifact Refining, this debt cannot remain unpaid.
I observe your esteemed spiritual awareness is yet unclear, the past life remains unawakened, still as a Loose Cultivator in the wild, possibly encountering much inconvenience, without materials at hand, unable to display your full abilities.
Why not join under my Yin Mountain Sect, initially serving as a Mountain Gate Honored, Artifact Refining Elder, help in sword casting on ordinary days, and occasionally ponder over my Mystic Sect Mystical Skill, and later after reincarnation, it’s permissible to enter my Sword Sect for cultivation.
