99: Chapter 99: Heaven and Earth Blessings, Rewards Received

The Disciples looked at the phenomenon before them with shocked expressions.

They only knew that Prodigies with exceptional talent were born with some special Physique phenomenon, or that heaven and earth phenomena were caused by breaking through a certain Realm.

What was this before them? It was just a Heaven and Earth Oath, and the Heavens had sent down such a phenomenon.

The five-colored auspicious light fell upon the Holy Land, cleansing their Heart-Natures, and the ancient bell chimes, refining their Divine Souls.

What an Opportunity this was!

Lin Wuyuan and the others felt the sacred power between heaven and earth, utterly astonished.

“This is a Blessing from Heaven and Earth!”

A core Elder exclaimed, and Wu Tian and the others nodded.

A Blessing from Heaven and Earth was a form of recognition from the Heavens towards a Cultivator, and only those who made outstanding contributions to the Zhou Tian Continent, or those with extremely Prodigious talent, would receive such an Opportunity.

Every Great Emperor currently existing on the continent had received such a blessing in their youth, but like Jiang Xuan, to cause the Heavenly Dao to pay such close attention with just an oath was unheard of.

The few Elders looked pleased, “Haha, these little rascals are truly blessed.”

The Elders looked at the surrounding Disciples; many were making significant Breakthroughs through this Opportunity.

“Hahaha, Saint Jiang Xuan is truly a blessing to the Holy Land!”

Someone sighed, on his very first day as Saint, he had done something monumental for the Holy Land’s development.

Jiang Xuan was the heart of their Holy Land's good fortune.

Thinking of this, their gazes towards Wu Tian became even more pained.

How could this old fellow have gotten such a good deal!

Jiang Xuan, in the Void Realm, felt the five-colored auspicious light, only feeling an incomparable warmth in his heart.

The clear bell chimes resonated with the chaos stone tablet within his body, continuously strengthening his Divine Soul power.

Within mere minutes, his Divine Sense reached the Saint Realm level.

After a long while, the phenomena between heaven and earth gradually dissipated.

Jiang Xuan’s Divine Sense swept out, and the entire Supreme Beginning Holy Land Small World was laid bare before him.

Jiang Xuan was overjoyed; his Divine Sense had surged so much, at least to the Saint Realm level.

With this, he could now use the Zhou Tian Forbidden God Diagram, a grand array that required a Saint Soul as a guide and could trap and kill Saints.

Now, facing the pressure from the Imperial Clan and the assassinations from the Blood Demon Hall, he finally had a bit of self-preservation ability.

In the Void Realm above the Dao Battle Stage, the four pillars of light still remained, and four ethereal figures had arrived not far from Jiang Xuan.

“Those are the four Ancestral Masters!”

The Disciples, having recovered from the phenomena, cried out in surprise, “I didn’t expect the legend to be true!”

Within the four large characters of the Supreme Beginning Mountain Gate, a great Opportunity was hidden.

Whoever could comprehend all four characters simultaneously would directly become the Saint of the Holy Land.

“As expected of Lord Jiang Xuan, he actually made the Old Ancestors’ ethereal figures voluntarily appear,” someone in the crowd praised.

The four figures in the Void Realm paused, their gazes fixed on Jiang Xuan, with an air of scrutiny in their eyes.

After a long while, the four revealed satisfied smiles, and simultaneously nodded, saying, “Good!”

After speaking, they pointed a finger, and a resplendent golden ancient book appeared in the Void Realm.

Jiang Xuan could feel the vastness contained within the ancient book.

Immediately after, the ancient book transformed into countless obscure runes that merged into Jiang Xuan’s glabella, re-converging in his Sea of Consciousness.

A golden ancient book floated in Jiang Xuan’s Sea of Consciousness.

At the same time, a message arrived: “[True Scripture of Creation] cannot be opened until the Saint Realm.

Remember, remember.”

Jiang Xuan was delighted.

Was this the Opportunity within the mountain gate?

Creation, Creation; to be named with these two words, it must be extraordinary, but it could only be opened upon reaching the Saint Realm.

Jiang Xuan suppressed his curiosity, resisting the urge to open it.

If it disappeared, that would be a huge problem.

At the same time, the four ethereal figures took one last look at the Holy Land, their eyes seemingly filled with nostalgia and memories, before dissipating into space.

Everything returned to peace.

Lin Wuyuan, Wu Tian, and the many Elders, and all the Holy Land Disciples bowed in salute.

“Farewell, Old Ancestors!”

...

Jiang Xuan returned to the Dao Battle Stage and said to Wu Tian and the others, “Revered Master, Holy Lord, this Junior has gained some insights from this selection and wishes to immediately return to secluded cultivation.”

Jiang Xuan was a bit impatient.

He was eager to return and await the System’s rewards.

He was very covetous; the Great Dao of Space-Time, the Three Purities Dao Derivation Method—which one wouldn’t make one’s heart pound?

“Haha, Jiang Xuan, now that you are honored as Saint, there’s no need to be so polite with us.

Just do whatever you wish.

The entire Holy Land will make way for you,” Lin Wuyuan said to Jiang Xuan with a smile.

Jiang Xuan, however, said earnestly, “Regardless of whether I am Saint or not, you are all my Elders.

Etiquette cannot be abandoned.”

The few nodded with faces full of relief.

Neither arrogant nor impetuous, with such a Heart-Nature, the Holy Land’s future was promising.

If it were anyone else, their nostrils would be pointing towards the sky.

Jiang Xuan, in his heart, secretly thought, “Alas, the Holy Land is all familiar faces.

I still need to find a chance to get out quickly, otherwise, I’ll be bored to death.”

“Oh, right, Jiang Xuan,” Lin Wuyuan called out.

“The matter of you becoming the Saint of the Supreme Beginning Holy Land will be announced to the world tomorrow.

By then, the entire Southern Wilderness will know, so don’t feel too much pressure.”

Jiang Xuan’s figure paused, then he grinned, once again making an ‘OK’ gesture, and then waved to the crowd and the Holy Land Disciples, leaving the area, leaving only a dashing silhouette.

Lin Wuyuan and the others were once again bewildered.

What exactly did that gesture mean?

Did it mean agreement?

He imitated Jiang Xuan’s gesture, and surprisingly, it was quite cool.

At this moment, the Elder responsible for the Saint selection came before Lin Wuyuan and asked, “Holy Lord, do you think this selection should end now or…?”

Lin Wuyuan did not answer him, instead making a not-so-skilled ‘OK’ gesture.

Leaving the dumbfounded Elder standing frozen in place…

Tianxuan Peak, “System, where are my rewards?

What’s going on?

Are you not so proactive now?”

【To Host, I saw you were busy just now and was afraid of disturbing you.】

“You’re quite considerate.

Is it okay now?”

【Yes.

Ding!

Congratulations to Host for completing the mission, acquiring the Great Dao of Space-Time.】

【Congratulations to Host for becoming the Saint of the Supreme Beginning Holy Land, acquiring the Three Purities Dao Derivation Method.】

Jiang Xuan was overjoyed.

The Great Dao of Space-Time, ranked among the top ten of the Three Thousand Great Daos, was one of the ten Supreme Daos between heaven and earth.

Cultivate it to Perfection, and one could freely traverse anywhere, open space-time channels, leading to the past, present, and future.

Furthermore, it could alter the flow of time, much like how time in the Celestial Realm had its operational rules changed.

It could instantly transform a wailing infant into a dying old man, which was terrifying to even think about.

“System, if I fuse with the Great Dao of Space-Time, won’t I be invincible, directly Transmigrating to the future?”

【Host, please don’t dream.

You have only fused with the Great Dao of Space-Time; Host still needs to Cultivate it personally.】

“What?

I still have to Cultivate it myself?

I thought it would directly reach Perfection.”

Jiang Xuan was immediately disappointed.

【Host, don’t be ungrateful for a good deal.

Normally, as long as one comprehends one of the Three Thousand Great Daos, even a Dao ranked at the bottom, their future will at least be in the Saint Realm.】

【Not to mention the ten Supreme Daos; even Great Emperors rarely comprehend them.】

Hearing this, Jiang Xuan nodded.

Indeed, he was being a bit greedy.

Immediately, he no longer hesitated.

“System, fuse with the Great Dao of Space-Time.”

【Received.

This Fusion will take a longer time, approximately three days.

Please prepare yourself, Host.】

...The next day, a Saint’s decree was issued from the Supreme Beginning Holy Land, descending upon the entire Southern Wilderness!
