Rewrite My Fate to Become the Daoist Ancestor

[The Immortal Slaying Sword Map is blessed by the "Cyan Heaven and Great Sun."]

[Threads of tribulation qi return from the Sword Carrier’s hand to the Immortal Slaying Sword Map, constantly elevating your level.]

[The Sword of Chaos, Sword of Despair, Immortal Slaying Sword, and Sword of Freedom manifest, constantly elevating your Primordial Spirit Dao Practice as you achieve Taiyi Dao Fruit with one step.]

[You could have taken another step to attain the "Great Dao," but with a feeling in your heart, you suddenly sighed and stepped back halfway before taking the final step.]

[You understand in your heart that Dongfang Mingyue’s merit has reached perfection; over a millennium, the "Qingtian Law" has been passed throughout the Mortal World, but the foundation is not solid.]

[You can disregard everything and attain "Cyan Heaven" at any time, but under the sun, there is nothing new.]

[What has been done will be done again. What has been will be again.]

[If you attain Dao at this moment, your New Heaven can only stay in place for eighty thousand years before falling apart, an inevitable outcome.]

["Cyan Heaven" attaining Dao has one final tribulation: the calamity of attaining Dao at this moment, which would bear bitter fruit in eighty thousand years.]

[They are undying and unextinguishable, they will become your successors, they will misinterpret your "Qingtian Law" and destroy the "True Dharma" you established, leading to the era of Dharma Decline, and Cyan Heaven will become the next "Heaven" to be overthrown by the world.]

[You need "a pair of eyes" and "countless future generations" to inherit Cyan Heaven.]

[And this final tribulation is also your own "Heart Tribulation."]

[You put away the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" and, with one thought, summon the Cyan Mountain True Inheritance from the Four Seas. Leading them is Divine Being Zhao Qingzhou, Divine Being Ning Yu, Monkey, and a hundred Sixth Realm Martial Dao practitioners.]

[You tell them that Cyan Heaven is complete and you have already attained the Great Dao. But the days remaining in the Mortal World are not many; you plan to stay at Cliff Mountain for eight hundred years and then carry Purple Sky Island for "Heaven-Lifting Dao Protection."]

[From today onward, Cyan Cloud Peak Sword Cultivators will gradually return and no longer exercise authority to oversee the Mortal World. To uphold the "Qingtian Law" will depend on the people themselves. Cyan Cloud Peak cut down all demon fiends over a millennium, but the remaining "demon fiends" reside in human hearts.]

[Undying and unextinguishable.]

[There are many troubles among the people, all arising from various desires. Birth, age, illness, and death are all forms of desire, all undying and unextinguishable.]

[You have long comprehended the great desire of beings: when people solve the most basic survival needs, "clothing and food without worry," they will aspire for more, seek more, and realize themselves.]

Why can the Immortal Family roam the world, while we mortals can only be frogs in the well?

[But their pursuit of freedom is not wrong.]

[You can give the people a thread of enlightenment opportunity, but not everyone can attain Dao. Most among them will lose themselves in jealousy and resentment after missing this opportunity, treading the path of seizing others’ opportunities, ending on the path to attain Dao as "demon fiends."]

[This great desire of beings is "demon fiends," and "demon fiends" are undying and unextinguishable.]

["The way of Heaven reduces the excess to make up for the deficiency; the way of Man increases the deficiency to profit the excess." A famous saying explodes in your mind.]

[Beasts are man, gods are man, demons are man, devils are man, all that is spiritual beings are "man." Man is desire, neither good nor evil. When you comprehend this saying, you have already passed the Heart Tribulation, your Primordial Spirit Dao Practice expands once more.]

[You can extend your hand and transform into Cyan Heaven.]

[You suddenly understand why some deeply insightful madmen think the "Dao of Slaughter" is the only solution: that by slaughtering all spiritual beings, there would be no more demon fiends, no more disputes and suffering, and the world would be eternally peaceful.]

[You were once unable to extricate yourself from the "Sword of Despair," having been that "madman." At this moment, you merely smile calmly, believing that "Man Can Conquer Nature."]

[You look at Divine Being Zhao Qingzhou, Divine Being Ning Yu, and Monkey, wanting to see what the final result will be...]

[Divine Being Ning Yu, a pure Martial Artist, is fearless and unafraid, but she admits that her current Divine Techniques cannot compete against those Great Divine Power Users who have cultivated for unknown ages, and without her father’s title as Cyan Cloud Sword Leader, she cannot suppress all Qi Cultivators under Heaven.]

[Although the Divine Land Orthodox Sect cannot openly intervene, in secret, no one can anticipate what tactics they might employ.]

["Father, if any Great Divine Power User dares to disrupt the Qingtian Law, what should be done?" Ning Yu quietly asks.]

[You glance at your daughter Ning Yu and, with a thought, leave behind a Dharma Decree, then slowly close your eyes.]

[Divine Being Zhao Qingzhou, Divine Being Ning Yu, and Monkey take the Dharma Decree, their expressions serious as they leave Cliff Mountain.]

[Zhao Qingzhou restrains the Martial Artists present repeatedly, forbidding them from revealing the events of today.]

[Worry is barely concealed on Zhao Qingzhou’s face; as a Martial Artist, he knows deeply the vast difference between "having a sword in hand" and "having no sword in hand." The Human Race’s flesh body is frail, already at a disadvantage compared to naturally powerful races like the Dragon Race and Aquatic Race.]

[Moreover, Immortals are prohibited from intervening in Mortal World affairs, but those mindless Sea Beasts are not bound by this restraint and roam freely.]

[Similarly, the Mortal human beings are not included in this limitation.]

[If anyone wishes to challenge the Qin Country and the Qingtian Law, they can only do so through mortals.]

[After analyzing the situation, the Cyan Mountain Saints in the Qin Country’s main hall did not show any worry. They calmly uttered, "He who wins the people wins the world." As long as Zhao Qingzhou and his allies do not falter, the Qin Country and the Qingtian Law that has endured for nine thousand years will not crumble.]

[Although this is true for the Four Seas, it’s a different story for the Divine Land and the Nineteen Continents.]

[A hundred years passed swiftly, the Cyan Cloud Sword Cultivators began returning, with only a few Sword Carriers unwilling to return. You merely smiled faintly, not blaming them, allowing them to continue wandering in the mortal world.]

[For a century, the Cyan Cloud Sword Cultivators vanished, yet the lives of mortals in the Divine Land and the Nineteen Continents remained unchanged, except without a National Master. However, a new group of "Superior Persons" emerged, known as "Royal Authority."]

[After the Cyan Cloud Sword Cultivators came out to eliminate immortals, demons, Buddhas, fiends... the Daqian Divine Dynasty’s civil servants and officials gradually retired, leading to the collapse of the last Divine Dynasty.]

[The Emperor Qian, following the tide, secretly nurtured and trained mortals, giving birth to mortal descendants with mortal women, cultivating martial artists for a thousand years, and forming a mortal army. Within a hundred years, the Nineteen Continents once again became unified under one ruler.]

[—Established the Daqian.]

[How blatant, not even changing the national title.]

[Qi Cultivators strictly follow the "Qingtian Law," not directly interfering in the mortal realm, but assisting the "Daqian Human Emperor" by moving mountains, paving roads, refining magical artifacts, controlling flying ships, and transporting troops.]

[The Daqian Human Emperor, destined by the Celestial Mandate, commanded support throughout heaven and earth, amassing numerous followers. The majority of mortals in the Nineteen Continents hailed "Long live the Human Emperor," willingly submitting under royal authority.]

[The Daqian Human Emperor enjoyed supreme royal authority, as the years passed hastily, he reached the years of decrepitude. His strength vastly diminished than before, death approached. The Daqian Human Emperor gazed at his unchanged ministers, overwhelmed with fear, and pleaded for the cultivation method, but his ministers trembled in fear, not daring to disclose the cultivation method.]

[Regardless of the catastrophic aftermath, the Daqian Human Emperor grew increasingly tyrannical, often with a single wrath resulting in countless dead.]

[In March, only a loyal minister advised that the mortal realm was under the protection of "Qingtian Law," forbidding the "Human Emperor" from cultivating.]

[The Daqian Human Emperor questioned the loyal minister: "What is Qingtian Law?"]

[The loyal minister respectfully replied: "Around a thousand years ago, someone established the Qingtian Law, stating that any successful cultivator must not interfere in mortal affairs, violators would be slain by the Celestial Sword! Once the Human Emperor begins cultivating and orders a single person’s death, someone carrying the Celestial Sword would slay the emperor. We dare not teach the emperor the cultivation method. If the emperor seeks "Longevity," he must unify the mortal realm and attempt to reverse heaven and earth."]

[The Daqian Human Emperor was shocked, commanded the collection of the Cyan Cloud Sword Cultivators’ deeds from a century ago, and suddenly flew into a rage: "I command millions of troops, under heaven, whose land is it if not mine, whose people if not my subjects."]

["I unified the Divine Land, claiming the title of Emperor, how can the Qingtian Law tolerate this!"]

[Upon hearing the word "Emperor," the loyal minister was startled. The current Emperor is "Cangtian," angering "Cangtian" might provoke a Celestial Punishment Divine Thunder, causing them to be instantly annihilated.]

[Those "able to call themselves Daoist Saints" are either Innate Divine beings who attain the "Great Dao of Greatness," Innate Divine beings who attain the "Taiyi Dao Fruit," or Innate Saints who establish certain lines of the "Great Dao."] 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

[A mere mortal, yet to embark on cultivation, without any merit of heaven and earth, dares call oneself "Emperor"?]

[The loyal minister quickly advised the Daqian Human Emperor to speak cautiously, fearing to anger "Cangtian," who might unleash fury.]

["Rally the troops, war upon the heavens!"]

[The Daqian Human Emperor dismissed his concerns, commanded his imperial expedition, intending to incorporate the Four Seas into the "Daqian" territory, fulfilling this unparalleled achievement.]

[And then attain enlightenment... live in longevity and freedom!]

[The Daqian Human Emperor proclaimed himself "Emperor," divided his forces into four directions, assigned Daqian generals to each command a grand ship, each leading a million troops to attack the Qin Country.]

[Qin Country, White Cloud Hall.]

[Time flew, incense never ceased burning, within White Cloud Hall, the wills of three thousand saints remained undying.]

[Suddenly, White Cloud Hall trembled slightly, strands of pure thoughts emerged from the Pillar of Heaven and Earth and stone statues, transforming into youths, middle-aged, and elders, they were the Cyan Mountain Saints and Qin Country’s main hall from generations past.]

[They had long completed their deeds and retreated, only appearing when summoned by the Qin Country’s Pillar of Heaven and Earth or encountering White Cloud pupils capable of carrying forth their will, to impart their teachings.]

[Zhao Qingzhou shared intelligence concerning the Daqian Human Emperor with everyone present, snorted coldly: "Emperor? How arrogant, a mere mortal dares call himself Heaven."]

[The Qin Country’s main hall and the saints looked upon the Daqian unifying the Divine Land and the Nineteen Continents with anger and disappointment: "Royal Authority, of noble lineage and inheritance, declaring themselves superior, forcing submission.]

["We once endeavored to help them stand on their own, yet now they voluntarily kneel before royal authority. Alas—"]

[A Cyan Mountain Saint who hadn’t awakened for a long time looked solemn, saying: "Zhao Pillar, our attempts at enlightenment are futile."]

["Enlightenment?" one of the saints asked, lamenting: "Yet we’ve tried our best, back then countless White Cloud pupils resolutely followed the Cyan Cloud Peak Sword Cultivator, traveling to the Divine Land to preach the "Qingtian Law" for a millennium."]
