Rewrite My Fate to Become the Daoist Ancestor

[Until...]

[A hundred thousand troops of the Qin Country came across the sea, and the Daqian army was instantly routed. The Daqian Human Emperor was terrified, charging left and right among the multitude, nearly losing his life to the enemy, and finally fled back to the Nineteen Continents in panic.]

["Is this even a mortal?"]

[The Daqian Human Emperor, having escaped back to the continent, was panic-stricken, pointing at the sea. There, a soldier of the Qin Country lifted a towering peak and leaped, smashing the meticulously crafted ship of the Qi Cultivator into pieces.]

[The Qi Cultivator civil servant, who was helping the Daqian Human Emperor to escape, looked at the densely packed Qin Country soldiers on the sea. Each was like a mini-superman, capable of smashing a ship with a single punch, their strength astonishingly great. The civil servant’s pupils involuntarily contracted slightly.]

["Qin Country..." the Daqian Human Emperor gasped for breath, his voice full of shock and fear.]

["Human Emperor, do not worry. Although Qin Country respects martial strength and has great power, we have ’allies’ to handle them," the civil servant said.]

[As soon as he finished speaking, the sea churned, and countless giant beasts roared as they broke through the sea, engaging fiercely with the Qin Country.]

[These Sea Beasts had crimson eyes, knowing no fear, merely temporarily holding back the Qin Army.]

[In the Qin Country, even the most ordinary soldier’s Cultivation was at least at the ’Innate’ realm. But this ’Innate’ was no small feat, as they had accomplished the third level of the ’Sumeru Dragon Elephant’ and could permanently reside at the ’Gate of Limits’, a realm of formidable Martial Artists.]

[These soldiers who had opened the ’Gate of Limits’ possessed fist strength that could shake mountains and shatter peaks. They relied not on magical power but on sheer physical strength alone, enough to instill fear in ordinary creatures. Only Sea Beasts who had inherited Dragon Species bloodlines could contend with them, vying for supremacy.]

[However, Sea Beasts that inherited Dragon Species bloodlines, protected by the residual grace of the Ancestral Dragon in the Four Seas, could generate magical power with each breath, embarking on the path of Cultivation. But once such Sea Beasts took action, Daqian would be doomed.]

[Bound by the ’Qingtian Law’, they had to devise a way to force the Qin Country’s cultivators to make the first move so that they could justifiably suppress them according to the ’Qingtian Law’.]

[In the past, the Cyan Cloud Peak Sword Cultivators wielded their swords strictly in accordance with the ’Qingtian Law’, requiring a ’proclamation to Cangtian’ before eradicating those defined as Demon Fiends, thus earning the mortals’ trust in ’Cyan Heaven’.]

[This was something the Human Race Emperor Qian had secretly observed over a millennium. The Cyan Cloud Sword Leader acted recklessly under the banner of the Great Dao Spiritual Treasure, confronting the Three Saints of Divine Land with a domineering personality, summoning the ’Immortal Slaying Sword Map’ at the slightest disagreement, truly showcasing an egoistic supremacy.]

[But what was unexpected was that the Celestial Rules enforcement power that the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader sought from Cyan Heaven was not a privilege but equality!]

[The Human Race Emperor Qian was shocked, studying the Cyan Cloud Sword Leader’s nature for hundreds of years, and finally gleaned some insight. This Cyan Cloud Sword Leader was, in fact, a reclusive ’otaku’, who rarely left Purple Sky Island and had no instance of oppressing others, aside from occasionally engaging in Cultivation discussions with close friends.]

[The Human Race Emperor Qian and Tathagata Buddha exchanged smiles — being able to attain the ’Cyan Heaven’ surely meant practicing one’s own Dao, and they both deemed this a heavenly opportunity.]

[The Qi Cultivators on Daqian’s side trusted the integrity of the ’Cyan Cloud Sword Leader’, ensuring that as long as they didn’t personally abuse mortals, they would not be targeted by ’Cyan Heaven’.]

["Qin Country is attacking, we must retreat quickly!" At this moment, the Daqian Human Emperor shouted in terror.]

[A Qin Country Centurion with a Meteorite Iron Spear pierced through groups of Sea Beasts, his black armor making him seem like a Grim Reaper as he advanced towards the continent.]

[The civil servant looked at his colleagues beside him and sighed helplessly.]

"Do not panic, when the Human Emperor is cornered, auspicious omens will surely descend!" He tightly clutched the Daqian Human Emperor’s sleeve.

With those words.

Amid the loud and bright cry, a giant creature slowly unfolded its magnificent wings. Flames erupted from its wings, soaring into the sky.

With a light flap of its wing, a fierce wind blew, and the Qin Country Centurion was violently blown away.

Boom!

On the sea surface, colossal waves burst forth!

The Divine Bird soared high, charging into the Qin Country soldiers as if in an uninhabited land.

"The situation is secured."

The civil servant looked at the Divine Bird, which displayed supreme power upon appearing in the world, internally awestruck.

"What is the name of this Celestial Destiny Divine Bird?" The Daqian Human Emperor widened his eyes, fixating intently on the beautiful and majestic Divine Bird, eyes filled with fascination and reverence.

"Reporting to the Human Emperor, this Celestial Destiny Divine Bird is named — Phoenix!!"

Boom!

Infinite Heaven-Flipping Seal!

In the distance, a golden Great Sun emerged, bringing a world-destroying force, crashing fiercely towards the Phoenix. Instantly, the Phoenix was struck by immense power, blood spilling, painting the sky a shade of scarlet.

A golden figure stood high in the air, gazing coldly at the Daqian Human Emperor below.

"Ah???"

The Daqian Human Emperor widened his eyes, face full of disbelief.

The Qi Cultivator who saw the figure within the golden Great Sun had their pupils shrink sharply, "A powerful one from the Qin Country has taken action!"

"Daring to defy the Qingtian Law, openly interfering in mortal affairs, utterly lawless!!"

"Villain, you shall not act so presumptuous here! Wait and see the might of my Magical Artifact!!"

A Qi Cultivator, eager to make merits, impatiently controlled his Magical Artifact, charging towards the golden figure.

This person was a Qi Cultivator who had already attained the ’True Immortal’ realm, possessing extraordinary strength. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

As the two engaged, light and shadow interwove, at speeds so fast it dizzied the eyes; without being an Immortal, it was impossible to track their movements.

Beneath, Qi Cultivators saw that he couldn’t defeat the ’golden figure’ for a long time, and three others wielding ’Magical Artifacts’ rose into the sky to encircle that ’golden figure’.

At this moment.

On a high mountain, a sword-wielder looked up, gazing at the four Qi Cultivators in battle, eyes indifferent.

"Proclaim to Cyan Heaven..."

Whoosh—

The world suddenly changed colors.

"What... what exactly is going on?!"

The four Qi Cultivators’ Spiritual Sense suddenly exploded, their bodies seemingly locked by an invisible force, unable to move an inch.

They looked in terror towards the sky, where the clouds slowly swirled to form a vortex, and at the center of this vortex, an immensely large Ancient Bronze Sword was slowly descending, emanating an appalling pressure.

"The... Celestial Sword?!!"

"No—!!"

Under the indescribable oppression of the Celestial Sword, the four attacking Qi Cultivators let out a scream, their bodies turning to bone before vanishing into ashes.

In just a few breaths, four True Immortals were annihilated!

The Qi Cultivators beside the Daqian Human Emperor, enveloped in the majestic Heavenly might, dared not breathe heavily, trembling severely, nearly collapsing to the ground.

For a long time, until the Celestial Sword dissipated slowly, a Qi Cultivator trembled finger pointing at that golden figure.

"You... you are not a mortal either, yet you remain unharmed under the Celestial Sword?"

The golden figure slowly descended to the ground, looking at those Qi Cultivators, who were too afraid to make a rash move out of fear, with a sneer:

"Because I am also a mortal."

"You, you also call yourself mortal?" The Qi Cultivators were dumbfounded, pointing incredulously at the golden flames surrounding him and the earth-shattering power he demonstrated earlier against the four True Immortals.

What kind of mortal is this?

Then what are they, those who consider themselves True Immortals? Ants?

"Fine, fine, you’re colluding with Cyan Cloud Sword Cultivators to abuse power, aren’t you? Just wait, we’ll report you to Cyan Heaven!!" The Qi Cultivators, enraged, exclaimed furiously.

"Then let me ask you, I am of average talent, reached the Martial Arts Seventh Realm through cultivation, capable of flying and traversing the Four Seas, even though I possess the power to smash Divine Land mountains, kick the North Sea True Dragon, and even slap you to death with one hand."

The golden figure smiled indifferently, retorting:

"But why am I not a mortal?"
