Chapter 331 - 211: Gu Wen Becomes Immortal!
Throughout the year’s end, Three Pure Mountain no longer rained down Spiritual Mountains, and the canopy of the Jianmu tree ceased to gleam brightly. The split forms of the Twelve Demon Ancestors stood tall as mountain ranges just outside Nanshui, with demons and humans alike preparing for the funeral of an Immortal. As Qingcang should be entering slumber to accumulate power,
she continued to dedicate herself to improving the techniques of Five Spirits Valley, printing, and papermaking, as well as contemplating the future advancements and reflections on the human race’s systems.
She carved out new paths, even if it was just laying the first brick.
Finally, Qingcang fell, her powers beginning to converge and accumulate according to the original plan.
Lying on her deathbed, Yun Miao and Huayang, accompanied by many great powers of the human race, cast down their avatars. For the first time in thousands of years, all sects and factions, great powers of every discipline, even ancient foes who had once obstructed the Daoist Sect, were present.
All mortal powers had arrived, with hundreds of people filling the house inside and out, silently awaiting her last words.
Qingcang gazed at the ceiling for a long time, her voice steady without fluctuations and utterly devoid of fear of death.
"In my life, I made three mistakes. The first was not being able to pull out the Jianmu, leaving trouble for future generations. The second was failing to consider the ordinary people; we cultivators moved too quickly and stood too high, no longer seeing the people on the ground. Now, even if I want to remedy this, I can only leave it to my successors."
Her eyes filled with regret as she looked towards Gu Wen.
"The third mistake: not fulfilling my duties as a master. I couldn’t nurture you to grow, couldn’t protect you to adulthood. My disciple, you needn’t emulate me, do not follow my example. If the human race is doomed, run far, far away."
