Everyone was curious. They stopped drinking, setting their cups down on the table as they looked at Qin Renyue.
Qin Renyue felt slightly embarrassed by all the attention. Then, he smiled and said, “However, it’s not a big secret now. The rumors have been swirling for a while now.”
Seeing that people from the Evil Sky Pavilion were eager to know more, he paused dramatically before he said, “This Saint lives in a parallel green lotus domain. To travel there, without using a runic passage, it takes two months for a Venerable Master to fly across to the Endless Ocean to reach that place. The two domains were never one to begin with despite sharing the same roots. However, they were relatively close to each other. Later, due to some unknown force, they got closer and closer before they overlapped, forming a mountain and linking the roots together again. That’s why people refer to them as the twin green lotus domain.”
“Think about this: originally, humans and fierce beasts had no intersection but were pulled together because of some unknown force. With that, what do you think will happen?”
Everyone grew even more curious after listening to these words.
At this time, Lu Li said, “War.”
Qin Renyue looked at Lu Li and nodded. He said, “That’s right. There’ll be war. The two green lotus domains were at war for nearly 10,000 years. The people struggled to survive, but the forces in the cultivation world were only pursuing their own interests. The two domains were in a state of disunity, and there were endless fighting.”
After saying this, Qin Renyue sighed.
Lu Zhou asked, “No one went there?”
Qin Renyue replied, “No one was willing to go there at that time. Moreover, the war that lasted 10,000 years was a long time ago; it was very long ago from the present day. At that time, the cultivation world was not as mature as it was now. In ancient times, humans lived in the Unknown Land and were originally one. Gradually, chaos descended on the Unknown Land, and humans spread out to the nine domains. The Unknown Land changed greatly, becoming less and less suitable for humans to live in. Due to huge migration of humans from the Unknown Land, the domains were formed.”
“The reason the 10,000-year war ended for the green lotus domains was due to this Saint. Similar to Venerable Master Lu of the black lotus domain, he appeared out of nowhere and dominated the land. All the forces submitted to him and the two domains called a truce. After that, the Saint no longer cared about worldly affairs and retreated into seclusion.”
Lu Zhou said, “Saints are much stronger than Venerable Masters. If that Saint were ambitious, wouldn’t the world fall into danger?”
“You’re right, Brother Lu. However, this Saint isn’t ambitious. Saints are Saints because they’ve long seen through the nature of the world. Power, status, possessions are just fleeting clouds in the eyes of Saints. Saints pursued the Great Dao. However, even if he were ambitious and wanted to conquer the nine domains, he would still have to deal with the Great Void. The Great Void maintains the balance, after all.”
“For a Saint to be able to conquer the nine domains is already a threat to the balance. Even Venerable Masters are regarded as unstable variables, and some of them have even been removed by the Great Void. So why wasn’t anything done about the Saint?” Yan Zhenluo asked curiously.
“That’s a good question. This is called the ‘saint privilege’,” Qin Renyue said.
“The saint privilege?”
“Regardless if it were powerful cultivators or fierce beasts, the Great Void is very cautious. Saints have relatively high chances of breaking through and becoming supreme beings. With the addition of each supreme being, the strength of humans increases collectively. In other words, if you’re strong enough, the rules will change. This is what’s called the saint privilege,” Qin Renyue explained.
Everyone nodded. They all understood this logic.
For example, Li Yunzheng, the emperor of the red lotus domain. He had to address Lu Zhou as grandmaster. A ruler of a country did not necessarily have the highest status. The rules in the secular world and even in the cultivation world did not apply to very strong cultivators.
“After talking for such a long time, you’ve still yet to tell me his name,” Lu Zhou said.
Qin Renyue smacked his forehead lightly and said slightly sheepishly, “His surname is Chen, and his name is Fu.”
“Chen Fu…” Lu Zhou was not familiar with this name at all.
“He follows the school of Confucianism. He’s righteous and was raised between heaven and earth. It’s almost impossible for ordinary cultivators to reach his realm.”
“Do you think he knows the location of the Great Void?” Lu Zhou asked.
Qin Renyue nodded. “I think he should know. He had dealings with the Equalizers from the Great Void, after all. Brother Lu, do you plan to look for him?”
“Why?”
“I’m afraid he might have already reached his limit and left the world…” Qin Renyue sighed.
Everyone was slightly surprised by these words.
“Even a Saint couldn’t break free of the heaven and earth shackles?” Yan Zhenluo found this hard to believe.
“After passing three Birth Trials, every additional Birth Chart will grant one 10,000 years of life. Venerable Masters will gain 30,000 years of life. Even without counting other factors, six Birth Charts can already grant one 60,000 years of life. This means Saints have 90,000 years of life. It has been 100,000 years since the battle of the twin lotus domains. If he has made another breakthrough, perhaps…” Qin Renyue trailed off, sighing as he shook his head.
Since a Venerable Master had said so, what else can the others say?
Lu Zhou said, “You have a point. However, since Chen Fu passed the fourth Birth Trial and had contact with the Great Void, the possibility of him breaking through is very high. Moreover, it shouldn’t be a pipe dream for a cultivator to walk to the end of the 36 Birth Chart path.”
Qin Renyue nodded. “You’re right, Brothers Lu. I’m too short-sighted…”
In all the domains, there were the weak and the strong. The strong looked down on the weak as though the weak were frogs living at the bottom of the well. Similarly, the Great Void looked down on the green lotus domain as well. After all, they had not reached the point where their collective strength was that of Saints.
Following that, everyone chatted about other things and no longer spoke about Saints.
After a while, Qin Renyue said, “Brother Lu, I’ve carefully observed your disciples. All of them are extraordinarily talented, especially this one…”
Qin Renyue pointed at Mingshi Yin who was sitting on the left, enjoying himself and eating fruits at the moment.
Everyone looked at Mingshi Yin in unison.
Mingshi Yin restrained himself and maintained a low profile. He coughed and said with a hint of embarrassment, “Venerable Master Qin, you overpraised me. Compared to my fellow disciples, I’m still lacking.”
Qin Renyue said, “You’re too modest. You have… an extraordinary quality.”
Qin Renyue had wanted to say Great Void Seed instead of extraordinary quality. However, he felt that would be too direct. It was not too polite to keep focusing on the Great Void Seed even if rumors had spread all over about a Great Void Seed appearing in the green lotus domain. It was best to not carelessly mention it. There were many innocent people who had gotten into trouble just for possessing treasures. Who could guarantee there was no one who harbored ill intention and secretly coveted the Great Void Seed?
“I’m not being modest; I’m speaking the truth,” Mingshi Yin said.
Qin Renyue only smiled. All he knew was Mingshi Yin was a future supreme being; Mingshi Yin’s future was limitless. Based on the Great Void Seed alone, how could he not seize this chance to forge a good relationship with Mingshi Yin?
“I’d like to help you,” Qin Renyue said.
Upon hearing these words, the 49 swordsmen, the disciples of the Qin clan, and those from the Evil Sky Pavilion felt a trace of envy. After all, obtaining the help of a Venerable Master was not something cultivators even dared to dream about.
Mingshi Yin smiled and said, “Venerable Master Qin is too generous. However, I prefer to depend on myself.”
“Listen to me first before you make a decision,” Qin Renyue said.
Lu Zhou raised his hand, stopping Mingshi Yin from speaking before gesturing for Qin Renyue to continue speaking.
Lu Zhou turned to Qin Renyue and said, “If I’m not mistaken, your disciples are close to having to pass their second Birth Trials or just recently passed their second Birth Trials. There’s nothing I can do about the first and second Birth Trials, but I can help with their third Birth Trials.”
Upon hearing these, the eyes of the members of the Evil Sky Pavilion lit up.
Passing Birth Trials required very harsh and extreme environments. It was not so difficult with the first and second Birth Trials, but with each passing Birth Trial, the requirement would become even stricter. This issue did not only concern Mingshi Yin but all the ten disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion. In fact, it also concerned Lu Zhou.
However, in Qin Renyue’s eyes, Lu Zhou was even stronger than a Venerable Master so he did not think he would be able to help Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou asked, “You know of places suitable to pass the third Birth Trials?”
Qin Renyue nodded. “The Soaring Peak’s Sky Hook Ropeway is the best place to pass the third Birth Trial.. However, in Brother Lu’s eyes, this place is likely nothing.”
