Chapter 1569: Where Does the Path of the Heavenly Man Lead?
After Jiang Ding took care of the aftermath of a Taoist friend, he looked at the greatest gain on this journey.
Compared to this gain, Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, no treasure is worth mentioning; it is the crystallization of the wisdom of countless elites and prodigies from the Upper Realm for tens of millions of years.
Tianren inheritance!
Buzz!
The void vibrated, and the Great Sun Heavenly Pond and Netherworld Pool bloomed from the void, shining brightly.
As treasures crafted in bulk by Near Immortal Level powerhouses of the Upper Realm, these two inheritance treasures possess extremely high Immortal Path technological levels, especially in escaping and protecting inheritance, which is a Sword Cultivator's forte.
Not to mention, Jiang Ding brought them along with him in his escape.
"Swordsman,"
"Have you agreed to coexist with the Taiyin Lineage?"
Yue fluttered up, somewhat dissatisfied, "I was thinking of transforming Youming Sword Cave Heaven into a Sword Pavilion! How will I do my work with you like this?"
"They should all be killed."
"The Taiyin Lineage are all bad!"
"Because..."
Jiang Ding was about to speak but was immediately interrupted by the overwhelming killing intent beside him.
"The unrestrained Sun Lineage Array Spirit!"
"You damned, foolish, despicable, shameless, disgraceful, heaven-cursed..."
A little girl with pitch-black eyes appeared beside the Netherworld Pool, pointing angrily at Yue's nose and cursing.
"Fool!"
The Netherworld Pool concluded.
"Oh?"
"I am a fool?"
Yue's gaze turned cold.
Without thinking, she raised her slender finger and stabbed towards the brow of the Netherworld Pool with a flash, fiery and destructive, one of the pinnacle swordsmanships of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion's sword dao, to which the Netherworld Pool could not respond.
Ding!
Jiang Ding stopped her tyranny and said helplessly, "Yue, don't act like an evil Demon Cultivator."
"Hmph!"
"Swordsman, I am inherently an evil Demon Cultivator,"
Yue stopped, snorted lightly, and said.
"The out-of-control Sun Array Spirit must be eliminated."
"Sword Master,"
The Netherworld Pool's gaze was icy, showing no reaction whatsoever, and said indifferently, "Sword Master, you should let the Bright Palace swallow this anomaly and return it to its original state."
"Coexistence."
"I said, it must be coexistence..."
Jiang Ding sighed, "Yue, the Great Sun Sword Pavilion you desire can be achieved, and Youming, the Youming Sword Cave Heaven you want will also exist, even surpassing the past.
Of course, some modifications that fit my ideas need to be made."
This, essentially, is embedding into the Xianmen Sect's industrial system.
Before embarking on the expedition to Youming Sword Cave Heaven, Jiang Ding had already gained authorization from the Xianmen Sect to designate Youming Sword Cave Heaven as a special Level 9 vassal civilization, where diplomacy and military are completely controlled by the Xianmen Sect, while having a certain degree of internal governance independence.
Additionally, the past ancestors of Youming Sword Cave Heaven and the Great Yin-Yang Sword Realm will enter the Immortal Gate Heroes Monument and be worshipped alongside countless past sacrificers in history.
The inheritance of Youming Sword Cave Heaven will be archived by the Xianmen Sect and after being modified, many Taiyin and Taiyang Sword Cultivators will emerge among its citizens.
In the view of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, Taiyin and Taiyang Sword Cultivators are indeed weak.
However, they have one good point: extreme controllability, unlike the Great Sun Sword Cultivators who easily lose control; throughout generations, the Sun Sword Children have been reputed as gentlemen, considered the perfect partners by many female cultivators in the Upper Realm.
Which is in complete contrast to certain domains detested by gods and ghosts.
The Xianmen Sect will also promote the ideological and moral education of Youming Sword Cave Heaven, striving to cultivate successive generations of qualified citizens capable of ascending to the Xianmen Sect...
And so on, is the compromise the Xianmen Sect has made to obtain Tianren inheritance.
The Great Sun Sword Master surely cannot break their promise. ThelatestchaptersarealwaysavailablefirstonMV5LEMPYR.
The Xianmen Sect will also not allow the Great Sun Sword Master to break their promise, as these are citizens of the Xianmen Sect, not so-called allies, to be discarded after strategic deception.
"Yue, Youming,"
"Discuss the sect system for the future of Youming Sword Cave Heaven."
Jiang Ding said, "The principle is equality between Great Sun Sword Cultivation and Taiyin and Taiyang Sword Cultivation within the sect; disciples can freely choose any inheritance. Additionally, the Xianmen advisory body will join in, so you can coordinate."
"Ensure coexistence, understand?"
"...Alright."
Yue reluctantly said.
The Netherworld Pool also nodded.
This anomaly of a Sun Sword Child will never completely belong to Taiyin and Taiyang, but his talent is so terrifying that even if it only partially belongs, it will make the brilliance of Taiyin and Taiyang far exceed the past, which is the reason for her acceptance.
In the Cultivation World, absolute loyalty from the weak is meaningless; only the strong can determine everything.
"Taiyou Brightness Scripture..."
After handling these matters, Jiang Ding began accessing the highest inheritance of Youming Sword Cave Heaven.
His Divine Sense reached out through the Great Sun Heavenly Pond and Netherworld Pool, seeking something from the Heavenly Dao; soon, a hazy, black and white intertwined book appeared in his Sea of Consciousness.
Jiang Ding silently read, beginning his comprehension.
"Taiyou Brightness Scripture," the sub-chapter inheritance of the highest "Taiyin and Taiyang Sword Scripture" of the Great Yin-Yang Sword Realm, is equivalent in status to the "Sun and Moon Sword Scripture" of the Daymoon Sword Pavilion, emerging from the same source as the "Great Sun Sword Sutra," making it not too difficult to comprehend.
"Heavenly Man, indeed starting to finely adjust Heavenly and Earthly Rules, creating his own rules..."
Jiang Ding murmured to himself.
This process would be exceedingly long and perilous, as any slight change in the Heavenly and Earthly Rules, even a slight mistake, would trigger terrifying backlash, leaving many Harmonization Peak Cultivators stuck at this threshold, too afraid to make any changes, knowing that if they indeed made such changes, they would die instantly.
Conversely, if a cultivator's foundations are deep, far exceeding those at the same level of Harmonization Peak Cultivators, and if the foundation can withstand one, two, or even ten instances of backlash from rules adjustment, then the likelihood of this cultivator ascending to Heavenly Man would greatly increase.
This is why nearly all Immortal Sects place extreme emphasis on foundations.
Additionally, a cultivator's understanding of Heavenly and Earthly Rules is equally critical.
Some cultivators have extremely shallow foundations with no extraordinary features— in fact, the founder of the Upper Realm Immortal Sect, like the strongest in Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm, was such, coming from the Refining Void Sect. There was no path paved by predecessors; he was the pioneer.
Theoretically, the strongest in the Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm should have been unable to withstand any backlash from changing rules, instantly facing destruction of both Divine Soul and body.
Yet, even so, the strongest in the Thunder Sun Heavenly Sword Realm successfully did so back in those years.
Succeeding in one attempt, without any mistakes, and finely adjusting rules perfectly suited to himself, laying the foundation for his advancement to Near Immortal Level powerhouse in a single move.
This demonstrates the importance of a cultivator's understanding of rules.
If a cultivator does not sufficiently understand the Heavenly and Earthly Rules and lacks deep comprehension of their own Dao, no matter how deep their foundations are, they cannot ascend to Heavenly Man. Even given dozens of opportunities to fine-tune rules would be useless; they would either die or never dare to step towards Heavenly Man ascension, simply sinking into mediocrity.
