Rewrite My Fate to Become the Daoist Ancestor

[In my heart, I was secretly pleased, exuding an air of high importance in front of others.]

[Subsequently, I began to study the "Jade Pearl." That pearl, bursting with "Spiritual Qi," absorbed the "moonlight" each night, transforming it into "Spiritual Qi." Clearly, it was a higher grade of "Spirit Stone," sufficient for one person’s cultivation.]

[I decided to let Junior Sister Gao Fei Xue continue her cultivation. I knew that I couldn’t become an Immortal "here," but I still hoped that Junior Sister Gao Fei Xue could succeed in her cultivation and live well.]

[Junior Sister Gao Fei Xue sensed something was amiss. She hesitated for a moment and told me she didn’t want to cultivate immortality; she did not want to be alone anymore.]

["You said that in the heavens, we wish to be like lovebirds, and on the earth, we wish to be intertwined branches. Please, husband, don’t abandon Xue’er."]

[Junior Sister Gao Fei Xue was very determined, even... threatening with death.]

[My earnest persuasion was in vain. I turned around and left. After that, our married couple didn’t speak a single word to each other.]

"Junior Sister..." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Ning Xunqiu sighed.

He remembered those nights when Junior Sister Gao Fei Xue wept in her dreams, her tender voice echoing in the darkness, calling out, "Mother, I don’t want to go." It was he who always stayed by her side, dispelling her fears with his warm embrace.

As children, the two were the loneliest people in the world, relying on each other in this unfamiliar Cyan Mountain, leaving an indelible mark on each other’s hearts over the years.

"Perhaps I was selfish."

Ning Xunqiu’s eyes were resolute, tightly gripping the book in his hand.

"Don’t worry. I am sure I can cultivate the Immortal Dao in reality, achieving longevity with you, watching the falling flowers and flowing water, and witnessing the sunset over the world together."

[At fifty, my martial arts cultivation still hadn’t broken through "Above Innate." I wanted to carve a new path with the "Lifebound Character: Martial Saint" and needed the martial arts of the world. Subsequently, I spread the Dharma Gate of "Above Grandmaster" possessed by Cyan Mountain to the world.]

[For a time, the world was in turmoil. Countless martial artists flocked to the foot of Cyan Mountain, seeking to obtain the technique for breakthrough.]

[I exchanged the first three layers of the Innate Technique "Purple Sky Innate Skill" with all the sects and martial artists for martial arts cultivation techniques and ancient texts. As a result, I gathered one hundred and eight Upper Martial Arts, three thousand Middle Martial Arts, and numerous Lower Martial Arts without count.]

[I absorbed all the wisdom of my predecessors, went into seclusion for three years, and created nineteen Innate Techniques, practicing them to perfection, integrating them into "Purple Sky Innate Skill." Yet, I still couldn’t find the path forward, and I had to give up temporarily.]

[At sixty, Crown Prince Chu Yu, Junior Brother Zhao Ping, and Zhang Han came to Cyan Mountain seeking an audience. Crown Prince Chu Yu was showing his age, Zhao Ping had a pale complexion, severely injured internally, yet his eyes remained steadfast. Zhang Han had lost an arm.

They came to request that I, the "White Cloud Sword Saint," descend the mountain to save the world.]

[I was quite taken aback. Both junior brothers had each cultivated one of the "Seven Swords of Cross and Vertical." Besides the direct descendants of Cyan Mountain and immortals, who in this world could possibly harm them?]

[It turned out that Emperor Ren Jiang You had passed away while in seclusion, and with his death, his influence dissipated. The new emperor was not Jiang You’s offspring but a Jiang Xuan who emerged from nowhere.]

[Jiang Xuan’s tyranny surpassed that of his father Jiang Hong. Ignoring the objections of the masses, he forcibly conscripted a million citizens to rebuild an "Ascension Tower" to seek immortality overseas.]

[Countless families were destroyed.]

[The remnants of the Six Kingdoms were resurrected, inciting rebellion across the land. Twenty-four rebel lords rose, amassing a formidable army of a million, capturing the Five States, and threatening Chang’an City in Jin Country.]

[At this time, the renowned general of Jin Country, "Gao Jin," led an army of one hundred thousand to live or die, decisively defeating the allied million-strong force, turning the tide.]

["Sect Leader Senior Brother, the reason we failed is because, within Gao Jin’s army, there were three Innate Martial Artists and eighteen Grandmasters. They led the elite to specifically slaughter our leaders among the ten thousand troops, leaving the army leaderless, causing the defeat," Junior Brother Zhao Ping revealed the true cause of the military defeat.]

[He and Zhang Han, relying on the "Seven Swords of Cross and Vertical," combined their Wind and Thunder Swords, fighting desperately to kill one Innate Martial Artist, causing the remaining two to be apprehensive, barely escaping with their lives.]

[I knew the difficulty of becoming an "Innate Martial Artist," and realized that understanding the "Mental Realm" is a rare chance, a revelation in itself. None among the older Grandmasters had broken through in a decade, so why did Jin Country have so many Innate Martial Artists?]

[Fortune? Immortals?]

[I pondered such reasons, but regardless of the cause, I needed to descend the mountain once.]

[I had two objectives for descending the mountain: first, perhaps such a life achievement would be more exciting. Second, I was at the end of my Martial Dao. It was best to test the reality of the immortals.]

[With righteous indignation, I agreed without hesitation.]

[Upon hearing this, Crown Prince Chu Yu, Junior Brother Zhao Ping, and Zhang Han exchanged glances, their faces bewildered, looking at me as if they’d seen a ghost, with a moment of complete silence in the air.]

[I clearly understood why they had such expressions. When Yu Country fell, I watched with cold eyes. When Jiang Hong came, I ignored him as well.

"Such indifference was seen by the world as being the ’High Virtue Immortal’ who did not partake in worldly matters." "Alas, Xiaozhang, Xiaozhao, your awareness is still too low." I declared righteously, "The fate of the world is the responsibility of every man." ]

[Junior Brother Zhao Ping and Zhang Han, having been raised by me and Junior Sister since childhood, knew the serious consequences if I couldn’t save face, and didn’t dare to expose my facade directly. "We respect Sect Leader’s decree."]

[The next day, I carried the paired sword, the "White Cloud Sword," and descended the mountain, heading towards Chang’an City on foot. As I traversed mountains and rivers, people started to follow me. Along the way, more and more people joined me.]

[Desperate defeated soldiers, civilians who couldn’t survive, fallen nobles filled with ambition, and talented scholars without opportunities—soon there were countless people, reaching a million in number. This showed just how little the Jin Country’s rule over the world for decades had won the people’s hearts.]

[Or perhaps the Jiang family simply didn’t care...]

[The hearts of a million people gathered together. In a matter of days, all voices unknowingly unified. The immense momentum gained the power to split mountains and fill seas, making this force awe me.]

[I must guide this power.]

[I raised the White Cloud Sword and shouted, "Hunger, war, poverty, for eight hundred years have never ceased, I will end it all with this sword, from now on—

The old will have support, the sick will have treatment, the young will have care, everyone will have land to farm, everyone will have food to eat, everyone will have clothes to wear, everyone will have books to read, this is the Great Unity of the World."]

[Heaven and earth fell silent, a pair of numb and muddy eyes looked up at that sword, at that person, as if seeing that world, the light in their eyes growing brighter and brighter.]

["Great Unity of the World! Great Unity of the World! Great Unity of the World!" The sound shook the heavens, like the cries of heaven and earth, drowning everything.]

[People toil and suffer all their lives, all they seek can be summed up in two words: survival. No one has ever demanded luxury beyond ’survival’, my words rang like a heaven-splitting revelation in the hearts of the people.]

[The world belongs to the emperors, to the nobility, to the martial artists, to the scholars, to the landlords, but it never belonged to the people of the world.]

[They awoke.]

[So...we are the people of the world.]

[My words were revered as sacred by the people, my actions followed, in every city doors opened in pursuit of me.]

[Gao Jin led an army of a hundred thousand to suppress the rebellious army.]

[I led three thousand elite cavalry, defeated an Innate, and crushed Gao Jin’s hundred thousand troops, thereafter even the old citizens and nobility of Jin Country came to follow me.]

[Thirty li from Chang’an City, the fall of Jin Country was imminent.]

[Jiang Xuan led Jin Country’s eight thousand elite out of the city to fight me to the death.]

[Eight thousand against a million? Each of us spitting could drown you. What if Immortals come? Do you understand the concept of great momentum? This is great momentum!]

[Slay the Immortal if he bars my way! Slay the God if he blocks my path! How could Mounted Dragons lose?]

[I brimmed with confidence, ready to change heaven and earth!]

[At this moment, a crimson meteor suddenly tore through the sky, dragging a long tail as it fell, transforming a ten-li radius into a sea of craters and molten lava, corpses scattered everywhere. ]

[In this disaster, I too turned to dust.]

"Isn’t this the Great Meteor Skill? But I’m not even surnamed Wang."

Ning Xunqiu’s face darkened.

"There really is a Child of Destiny."

"Flattened a ten-li radius...such power, the means of an Immortal are truly formidable, it seems human effort is futile. But why did the Immortal help Jin Country commit such heinous slaughter? Must Jin Country not be destroyed?"

Ning Xunqiu was filled with headache.

"Could I, who have reached the Fifth Realm or Sixth Realm as a martial artist, achieve such a level?"

After a moment of silence.

If you can’t beat them, join them.

"Cultivate Immortality, I must!"

At that moment.

Ding Dong.
