283: Chapter 107: Borrowing the Dao Body in Yunzhong, Imparting the Great Secrets!

‘How could Ping’an have attracted the attention of the Heavenly Dao?’

Yun Zhongzi calculated with his fingers, and his Daoist heart gained a bit more enlightenment.

At this moment, Li Ping’an was wholeheartedly discussing the Dao, his Primordial Spirit fully engaged in pondering his words, completely unaware of the presence of an old Daoist’s phantom behind him.

Throughout the Flowing Clouds Observatory.

Li Ping’an’s clear and melodious voice drifted like a gentle breeze, causing many disciples to show a contemplative expression.

Although the immortals had not gained any insight, they listened attentively, daring not miss a single detail.

In Li Ping’an’s spiritual platform.

Yun Zhongzi stopped his finger calculations, a few more specks of light in his eyes, and he kept stroking his beard and nodding in approval.

He had actually checked the ‘memories’ of the Myriad Manifestation Chart and the Cangyue Bead.

Refusing the Heavenly Dao, consolidating the Primordial Spirit, cutting off human sacrifice, punishing the Demonic Path, Li Ping’an’s actions over the past few years were all known to Yun Zhongzi.

——The Cangyue Bead and the Myriad Manifestation Chart were originally meant to supervise Li Ping’an.

Yun Zhongzi, looking back at this little disciple, felt some regret.

He should not have been so self-restrained, saying things like ‘half a disciple’.

Ping’an was chosen by the Heavenly Dao yet managed to reject its temptations with his meager Dao Realm, which alone qualified him to be the leading disciple of the school.

Yun Zhongzi pondered for a moment, then looked up at the expanse of Golden Cloud.

He too was unable to disperse the intangible and formless force of the Heavenly Dao.

But it didn’t matter, he might not have such means, but that didn’t mean that his Sect Hierarch didn’t.

Therefore, Yun Zhongzi’s strand of Primordial Spirit remained still, listening to Li Ping’an’s elucidation of the “Wanyun Jue” preface, while another strand of Primordial Spirit force hurried towards the deep halls of the Jade Void Palace.

In an instant, Yun Zhongzi’s second strand of Primordial Spirit entered that mysterious Immortal Realm.

Observe this mystical place:

Clear qi curls around nourishing the Dao Fruit, immortal light twists and turns protecting the true self.

The ground is laid with glass that is no ordinary material, and the stars atop the hall are all genuine.

A hundred pillars prop up the sky, obstructing the sun and the moon, curtains in the wind catch the pure dust.

What need is there for the jade throne to be adorned?

Atop it sits the Sect Hierarch hailed as Heavenly Honored One.

Yun Zhongzi respectfully walked forward to pay his respects, calling out:

“I pay my respects to the Hierarch.”

On the jade throne that couldn’t be clearly seen as large or small, a trace of immortal light appeared.

This throne seemed the size of a normal cushion but also able to contain all of heaven and earth, and those several strands of entwined immortal lights seemed as if returning from the endless Void, coalescing into the middle-aged Daoist with black hair and beard.

The Daoist smiled at Yun Zhongzi, speaking warmly: “Fortunate Immortal, no need for much ceremony, why hasten to see me?”

“Reporting to the Hierarch,” Yun Zhongzi stood up and smiled, “I have taken on a disciple, and this disciple was chosen by the ancient Heavenly Dao.

They wish to make my disciple a slave to the Heavenly Dao, but I’m at a loss and have come to seek a solution.”

“Oh?”

The Daoist calculated something with his fingers, nodding slightly.

He said, “This matter does have some mysteries.”

Yun Zhongzi eagerly inquired, “Please, Hierarch, enlighten me.”

The Daoist said slowly:

“Since the fall of Emperor Jun in ancient times, the Human Race overthrew the gates of the Nine Heavens, and the Heavenly Dao has concealed itself, resulting in the need to reestablish the cosmic order.

“Now, with the Human Race in control of heaven and earth for sixty-eight thousand years, the Hundred Clans have returned to the Western Continent, with the ancient powerhouses either lingering on in the Western Continent, Northern Continent on their last breath, or having left this world for numerous minor heavens.

“From what I see, these minor heavens will become the Three Thousand Worlds, part of the cosmic order, and there will undoubtedly be another war between the Human Race and the Hundred Clans.

“However, before this war, the Human Race will find itself in dire straits.

“The Southern Continent is sealed, fortune arises on its own, the Human Race yearns, and a new Heavenly Court emerges.

This Heavenly Court should have been an opportunity for the Heavenly Dao to reappear, but it’s rejected by the Human Race’s powerhouses, thus the Heavenly Court is still destroyed, and the cosmos remains disordered, not a sustainable path.

“In the East Continent, there’s a Great Fate Holder named Li Dazhi, this man is born in response to this ordeal.”

Yun Zhongzi said, “Reporting to the Hierarch, my disciple is the son of that Li Dazhi.”

The Daoist nodded slowly, sighing:

“The affairs of the Human Race, our Jade Void Palace should no longer interfere.

“Fortunate Immortal, do you know that if the Human Race is to establish cosmic order, they must establish a new Heavenly Court;

“And if a new Heavenly Court is to be opened, continuing the Heavenly Dao, then it is necessary to gather the Great Dao from all over the world.

“The Great Dao, our Three Teachings of the Daoist Sect possesses much, and it is very difficult to escape this tribulation, after the end of the ancient era, I gave the order for the Jade Void Palace to avoid getting too close to the Human Race exactly to avoid such disasters.”

Yun Zhongzi’s face showed embarrassment, and he bowed deeply: “It is my fault, for it was Ping’an’s outstanding comprehension and lofty aspirations that touched me, prompting me to entrust him with the Path of Artifact Refining.”

“Fortunate Immortal need not worry, the emergence and cessation of tribulations have always been the natural order of the cosmos.

Let me observe this world again.”

There was a moment of silence in the great hall.

After a short while, the middle-aged Daoist spoke again:

“Tomorrow’s tribulations are threefold: first is the Dao Immortal Tribulation, second is the Heaven and Earth Tribulation, and the third tribulation has not yet revealed itself.

“Of these three tribulations, the Dao Immortal Tribulation is the tribulation of our Taoist Sect.

I have already spoken about this to all of you before, and now our disciples of the Three Teachings remain secluded to avoid this tribulation.

“However, the Dao Immortal Tribulation cannot be avoided forever, and sooner or later, the Human Race’s Heavenly Court must be established, requiring a Human Race’s Heavenly Emperor to preside over the Heavenly Dao.

“Fortunate Immortal’s disciple originally had no chance, but because of his father’s borrowing of fortune, which disturbed the Heavenly Dao, provided your disciple with some opportunities.

“As to the specifics of this opportunity, even I cannot be sure, since after ancient times the Heavenly Secrets have become rather chaotic, I can only glimpse a mere sliver of light and shadow.”

Yun Zhongzi inquired, “Hierarch, may Ping’an join the Chan Teaching?”

“Not for now,” the middle-aged Daoist said with a faint smile, “If he joins Chan Teaching, all opportunity will be lost; he is of the Human Race, and it’s best he remains with his people.”

Yun Zhongzi seemed to gain some understanding.

The middle-aged Daoist continued, “Let him attend my lecture during the Jade Void grand ceremony.”

Ah?

Yun Zhongzi was somewhat uncertain of the Hierarch’s intent, but the throne in front of him enveloped in immortal light, and that middle-aged Daoist, Yuanshi Tianzun, had vanished without a trace.

Yun Zhongzi’s strand of Primordial Spirit saluted and returned to the immortal body.

Afterward, Yun Zhongzi stood up, pacing back and forth in front of the bedstead.
