Chapter 481: Hearing About the Heaven Courtyard Again

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Xia Canal originated from the North and flowing to the South. The way to get out of the city was exactly the entrance to the Dynasty School.

Guan Longzi had walked out from the school. The first morning breeze had blown towards his face. He took the Prefect Grand Usher’s instructions from the imperial guard, then he looked at the young lad and the Black Tiger.

He looked very young, but he had a deep pair of eyes which reminded him of the stars in the sky. Full moon could not even take away the glow of those stars which were deeply hidden in the dark that would still glow.

When the morning breeze blew from behind, Shen Lian’s side hair was being blown. It seemed like this young lad was extraordinarily aloof.

This was not the first time Guan Longzi had actually met a person like this. 20 years ago when he met Tianyi, it was about the same. However, Tianyi’s aloofness was slightly better. When he was young, he met the founding master of Xuan Zhen Qi Zi. That was one of the originators of Daoism who had transcended beyond life and death, and approached the unknown world.

As for this young lad, it was actually not lower than that of the founding master of Xuan Zhen Temple.

With his wisdom, he would never go wrong. He knew that this person was the one in the prophecy that would change the world. Finally, now this person appeared in front of him.

This person’s appearance would cause Da Xia to die out. Not only he knew about this, but the hierophant also knew about it. Thus, the hierophant had left Diqiu to find ways to eliminate this existence.

Guan Longzi did not know what he should do but he knew that the destiny could not be changed. The hierophant wanted to go against the God’s will to change the destiny, he would have to pay an unimaginable price whether he succeeded or not.

However, for Da Xia, the hierophant was willing to sacrifice everything.

Guan Longzi could sacrifice his life for Da Xia, but he would never sacrifice everything for Da Xia.

There was always something which was more important than life, more important than anything, and that was ‘Dao’.

He had seen the content in the instructions with one quick glance, then he told the imperial guard to leave.

Shen Lian clasped his back behind his back and took a step to reach in front of Guan Longzi. This person did not have power but he had the genuine wisdom. As long as there was wisdom, it was easy to get power. If there was power, it would be difficult to get the wisdom.

This was because energy power could solve almost every difficulty, and thus it would make wisdom lower its function.

However, some issues would require wisdom to solve. Just like the glow of wisdom could enter the star and forever illuminating people later on.

Thus, people such as God, Daoist Master and Buddha had all transformed their wisdoms into classics to be kept in the world.

The reason why Shen Lian could reach this state today was definitely inseparable from the being enlightened by the wisdom of his predecessors.

The morning breeze had brought the first sentence from Shen Lian, “hello there.”

Guan Longzi felt that he travelled back to 20 years ago when he first met Tianyi. He smiled and said, “hi there.”

“My name is Shen Lian, the Shen with water, the Lian with fire,” Shen Lian was staring at Guan Longzi while speaking softly.

“I’m Guan Longzi. I’m sure you’d have known this beforehand. I’m staying here in the Dynasty School during this period of time. We can share our knowledge with each other,” upon completing his sentence, he stood with his back so straight that he looked like a person with high morality and wisdom, portraying his style as a true Master.

He had such confidence. No matter how abstruse and powerful you were, when it came to knowledge, we were both at the same level, there could be sharing of knowledge.

Shen Lian nodded his head while smiling. He totally agreed with this point. A person’s power could be seen through his eyes.

Guan Longzi owned a pair of eyes filled with wisdom. The quality that he had fostered from his cultivation of knowledge was even better than Wang Shidao from Xuantian Sect’s Temple of Contentment.

Guan Longzi raised his hand and made a ‘please’ pose, he said, “Daoist Shen can follow me into the school,” they would be friends if they were from the same sect, this address was not specially used by only the Daoist. Guan Longzi could see that Shen Lian was a genuine person who pursued Dao.

Shen Lian followed his wish to walk in front whereas the Black Tiger was following by Shen Lian’s side and Guan Longzi was right behind. There was nothing wrong with this.

Guan Longzi who was walking behind Shen Lian was observing every step of his. The Black Tiger beside Shen Lian did not catch any of his attention, because all his attention was being taken away by Shen Lian’s steps.

Shen Lian’s steps were not like those that had been measured using a ruler. Instead, it was very messy. However, Guan Longzi who had been studying astronomy for many years actually discovered that the tracks of stars were actually being skilfully used in his steps that looked absolutely natural.

Even the force being exerted by each step he took seemed like the attraction between the stars. It was so natural and everlasting that it could not be destroyed.

There was still a speciality in Shen Lian from his head to his toes. He was never tainted by even a speck of dust. Any dust would naturally avoid him, as though he was a lotus flower that bloomed in the mud.

He was unsure if this was all the reflected from Shen Lian’s entire life of cultivation. He could perfectly combine Daoism’s Ta Gang Steps and Buddhism’s Step by Step Blooming Lotus without incurring any conflict, and thus he had the steps today.

The difficulty of this step was not on its mastery but the integration of Daoism and Buddhism’s meaning. One was definitely unable to do this if he did not use his great wisdom to see through the subtlety of Daoism and Buddhism.

If one wanted to learn about this, he would fail to do so.

Upon entering the school, there was a shocking expression on Shen Lian’s face. He was not surprised that he could clearly see the sky inside the school, and neither was he surprised at the spaciousness within the school. What he was shocked at was that it was an entirely new world, a world that was distinctively different from the outside world.

This had reminded him of the past in Zifu Peak in Mount Qing Xuan when the Old daoist used to put him in the small world which was definitely the miniature of the Boundless Universe; five elements were all readily available, the rules were breeding.

With his present level, he still could not create a small world from the void. All he could do was to establish a place of enlightenment and create space, but he could not produce myriad of things.

Guan Longzi said, “I’m sure Daoist Shen can see the speciality of this school.”

Shen Lian nodded his head and said, “this is a world but not a space. To be frank, you’re stronger than me at this place, because the sources of this world are under your control.”

Guan Longzi said, “you’re right, but I’ve never tried to use this point to fight.”

Shen Lian sighed while saying, “you’re still being so careful even when you can get everything in life. You’re the one who is really preserving Dao.”

It was easy to obtain Dao but difficult to preserve Dao. Shen Lian evaluated that Guan Longzi was a person who could preserve Dao, and that was already almost the best evaluation. He had the power but he did not unbridledly used his power. There was no justice if such a person could not be enlightened.

Guan Longzi laughed and said, “it’s just my habit. Let me describe the origin of this school. Actually, it used to be a fragment of this world.”

Shen Lian stopped walking and Guan Longzi was already standing by his side. He turned his head to the side and looked at Guan Longzi, he asked while thinking, “what world?”

Guan Longzi said, “I’m sure you’ve heard of the Lord Emperor and the Emperor.”

“Of course I’ve heard of it. There were two generations in the Heaven Courtyard. The first generation was built by the Emperor, there were even records of some Qi cultivators in some daoist ancient books and records. Since the Emperor got enlightened, he had supernatural power. The second generation of Heaven Courtyard was built by the Lord Emperor. The Lord Emperor had completely disappeared after a battle, and that’s how the second generation of Heaven Courtyard came to its end,” Shen Lian said.

Guan Longzi nodded his head and said, “you’re right. Looks like you know more about the Lord Emperor compared to that of the Emperor.”
