Rewrite My Fate to Become the Daoist Ancestor

Ning Xunqiu and Dongfang Mingyue engaged in a sword debate at Cyan Cloud Peak.

Afterwards.

They summoned Qingfeng Baiyun Child for an examination of their cultivation.

Baiyun Child’s cultivation has progressed slowly over the years, with only three to five years of minor Dao practice. She then turned to practice the small techniques within the Cyan Mountain Seventy-Two Marvelous Techniques, while planting the "Glazed Seven-Star Bead" on Baiyun.

Under the guidance of her junior sister Gao Fei Xue, Qingfeng has become literate and enlightened, successfully cultivating the Cyan Heaven Great Sun Burning Qi Scripture.

The fortune limit increased by three points once more.

Ning Xunqiu casually dispatched the two children to go play, while Dongfang Mingyue transformed into a demon sword, beginning to comprehend the true intent beside him.

"The fortune limit has broken four hundred."

Ning Xunqiu glanced at his own fortune.

[Current Fortune: 210~401]

Having become a martial Dao incarnation, he felt no urgency to disseminate the Escape One Method, Cyan Heaven Great Sun Burning Qi Scripture, merely using it for Dao lineage fortune to enlighten one or two aliens, gaining fortune.

Ning Xunqiu opened the Celestial Derivation Volume, pondering within.

"Last time in life, I became the master of the Mountain and River Realm, but no Human Emperor emerged in the world. When the time comes, no one would be able to do anything to anyone else, and the dragons and humans would remain stalemated... Originally, the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth would continue forever, which is, for me, the most perfect situation in Qingxu Realm."

"After all, the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth obfuscates the heavenly mysteries; the Venerable of Dao and Virtue can’t trouble me through the Celestial Dao. I can gain thousands of years for cultivation."

"But—"

He paused, not daring to curse openly, only thinking quietly in his heart.

"The Qingxu Realm Celestial Dao is too treacherous; the ’Void Celestial Gate’ it sent me connects to the Barbaric Realm, which bore traces of Ancestral Dragon."

"Once they cease fighting, Ancestral Dragon would begin dispatching Dragon Race to invade other realms, and I would be the first to suffer."

Ning Xunqiu’s face looked grim.

"Now that the Mountain and River Seal has become the Mountain and River Realm, it is my martial Dao foundation, and it can no longer be used to create the Human Emperor Seal. Not to mention, the end for Martial Masters is even worse... Going down the Human Emperor path won’t work."

"Should I eliminate the Barbaric Realm in advance, trying to avoid Ancestral Dragon? Or, outside the realm, use the ’Sword of Chaos’ to seal it... This was verified in the previous life, as at least his primordial spirit will fall into slumber."

"It’s possible, but revealing his true form requires some planning."

Ning Xunqiu squinted slightly. It’s no less than an opportunity; if he quietly takes down ’Ancestral Dragon’ outside, the Qingxu Realm deities won’t notice the might of ’Sword of Chaos,’ thus wouldn’t unite against him.

"During my time as Martial Master, I touched the Eighth Realm of Martial Arts. If I accumulate a few more times in the Celestial Derivation Volume, perhaps I can break through to the Eighth Realm of Martial Arts; this too merits attention."

"I should try first, if it doesn’t work, open a few new worlds."

Ning Xunqiu solidified these thoughts in his mind, then began to pen modifications to the Celestial Derivation Life Record.

...

[Do you want to use ten fortune points to rewrite this life segment?]

[Fortune reduced by ten, Current Fortune: 200~401]

...

[In the first hundred years, I engaged in sword debates in Cyan Mountain Heaven and Earth with Dongfang Mingyue, cultivating the Yin Yang Dao with junior sister Gao Fei Xue, guiding Qingfeng, Baiyun, Yiya, Ah Qing, and Cyan Mountain people, sometimes gathering together, occasionally brewing tea and discussing Dao with friends at Cliff Mountain.]

[These hundred years truly were immortal days; I wish they would last forever, but alas...]

[Throughout these hundred years, I dispatched Red Flame, systematically arranging the Mountain and River Realm, placing the souls of Cyan Mountain Saint, wise men, and heroes into the ’Martial Arts Golden Stele,’ allowing them to traverse the Mountain and River Realm on my behalf.]

[Soon, several celestial martial artists emerged from the Martial Arts Golden Stele, expanding the Red Flame Army to three thousand people.]

[During this time, junior sister Gao Fei Xue refined the ’Splendid Celestial Wind Spirit Pearl,’ during a dual cultivation, and daughter Ning Yu was born.]

[I sent daughter Ning Yu to ’Jade Sky Immortal Island’ for cultivation, encountering Linglong Fairy once more, stirring my heart.]

[After two hundred years, I developed a close friendship with Linglong Fairy, gaining entry into her true form for cultivation.]

[In the sixth hundred year, I digested the power of ’Despair,’ elevating my Dao practice to ten thousand years.]

[At this time, spiritual energy resurged in the Mountain and River Realm, and after Qin Country subdued the giant beasts, they discovered the existence of the ’Void Celestial Gate,’ prompting the ’Defending Divine General Hong Yan’ and ’Cyan Mountain Sages’ from the Martial Arts Golden Stele to descend and guide them.]

[Qin Country began to tread into the ’Barbaric Realm,’ trading modern handicrafts with Beastman Tribe, which were shiny and novel; even the Beastman Noble King enjoyed them and was willing to exchange for Great Medicine.]

[In the Barbaric Realm, numerous Great Medicines were cultivated into pills, enhancing the martial strength year after year.]

[The two sides maintained friendliness for a hundred years, but due to an incident where a ’Qin’ Tribe’s messenger accidentally broke a toy belonging to the Tribe King’s son during a transaction. Enraged, the Tribe King immediately killed the messenger, declaring he would annihilate the weak ’Qin’ Tribe and seize their countless treasures.]

[It was a premeditated war!]

[Qin Country didn’t hold back, with the divine being Zhao Qingzhou and three martial heroes instantly slaying the invading dog-headed barbarian gods in the Mountain and River Realm.]

[The two sides forged a blood feud, invading each other’s world in mutual slaughter.]

[During the three thousand years of warfare, the emergence of martial artists didn’t advance the ’Ten Thousand Species Struggle for Freedom in the Frosty Sky’ any further. Despite absorbing martial Dao enlightenment twice in my life, there was progress yet falling short of qualitative change.]

[Only by walking one’s own path in martial Dao as a ’Martial Hero’ or ’Divine Being’ can it nourish ’Ten Thousand Species Struggle for Freedom in the Frosty Sky.’]

[With martial Dao halting, I began perfecting the Cyan Mountain Seal, preparing for attainment as a ’Carefree Immortal.’]

[In the fourth millennium, the path of Qi Cultivator reached its end, and the enlightenment opportunity was delayed indefinitely. I sought resolution at Jade Sky Immortal Island, where Master Liuli personally inspected and rebuked me.]

["Though possessing the spirit of all things, void of Dao rhyme despite ten thousand years of practice, with magical power lacking any spirituality, how did you cultivate to ten thousand years of Dao practice?"]

[Of course, through exploits.]

[I felt slightly awkward, saying little; most of the ten thousand years of Dao practice stemmed from digesting the power of ’Despair,’ with little gained from genuine cultivation.]

[Qi Cultivators cultivate magic, condensing Dharma Seed, with primordial spirit sensing wind, cloud, thunder, and lightning in the world, ultimately mastering world rules, which is Divine Techniques.]

[Dao rhyme is the nurturing of one’s inherent divine technique.]

[To transform ’Spiritual Acupoint Heaven and Earth’ into ’Blessed Land,’ one must comprehend several Dao rhymes at the very least.]

[Despite this ten thousand years of Dao practice, magical power is devoid of spirituality, akin to a dead thing. Regarding the Great Dao, I know of its existence without comprehending its essence, utterly incapable of nurturing ’inherent divine technique.’]

[This scenario demands either attainment as a Lower Grade Immortal or reincarnation.]

[I begged Master Liuli, expressing my wish to try.]

[Master Liuli cherished her disciple nonetheless; sighing softly, she personally enlightened me on Dao.]

[I opened the ’Door of Wisdom,’ feeling Master Liuli’s Dao rhyme, realizing Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao, profoundly mysterious; my heart and spirit muddled, a few hundred years passed swiftly, yet understanding eluded me.]
