Chapter 258: Shocked, Xiang Ying is Invincible Again
In modern times, Yun Ye saw many people posting online to criticize the founding ancestors of the nation. They pointed out their flaws, saying their actions were meaningless, and claimed that everything was just repeating itself, with capitalists inevitably returning.
Indeed, reality had so many injustices, so many people treated like firewood, making the world appear utterly loathsome.
But is it really meaningless?
Did history not see devastating famines that starved hundreds of thousands or even millions?
Did the brutal lords battling each other truly not happen again?
Do people still need to kneel to seek justice in court?
The world indeed slips a bit closer to darkness over time, but to ignore igniting a spark simply because darkness is inevitable feels quite like abandoning core principles for trivial pursuits.
Must one give up the process of living just because death is certain?
The beginning and the end are not everything.
Even if stability lasts for only one hundred years—or even just ten years—all the struggles are meaningful.
Because indeed, many people have benefited and achieved changes that have never occurred before.
Thus, from the very start, Yun Ye pursued not ‘absoluteness’ but aimed to ignite sparks, to do what he could, and to walk the path he could.
In this world, there are three possible paths to change everything.
The first path is individual cultivation, becoming the strongest in the Red Heaven realm, sweeping away all opposition, and establishing a new order in Red Heaven.
The second path is through technology, secretly developing advancements to gain overwhelming weapons capable of eradicating all Spiritual Law families in Red Heaven.
The third path is the Dao Artifact path, continuously growing the Tomorrow Society, gathering strength to establish a nation, thus creating a resonance through sacrifices made over lifetimes.
Perhaps there are other possibilities.
But Yun Ye could think of mainly these three paths, each having its pros and cons. Currently, he was developing all of them together without prioritizing any specific one.
First, the first path seems quite feasible, especially since Yun Ye can reincarnate.
However, in an environment dominated by Dao artifacts, this is the least likely to be realized.
The twelve System Masters of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect are called System Masters precisely because they have mastered Dao artifacts; this identity far outweighs their cultivation levels.
If one does not recognize the ruling Dao artifacts, it’s impossible to become the strongest. Even if one grows stronger, without their own Dao artifact, they can easily be suppressed by a Dao Artifact wielder.
Next is the second path.
Invincible technology requires time to develop, but the Spiritual Law families clearly won’t provide such an opportunity.
Not to mention the True Immortals; they may have vanished, but they surely still exist.
The True Immortal Mother on the Heavenly Path is proof of that.
The third path is the Dao Artifact.
As the fundamental element that modifies the rules of the world, Dao artifacts hold the greatest promise.
Most importantly, the resonance created by Dao artifacts does not disappear; it can follow Yun Ye through reincarnation.
Moreover, as the Dao artifacts continue to grow, they will expand the area of rebirth, allowing Yun Ye’s talents to grow as well.
The Dao Artifact path and the individual path complement each other. At the same time, one must grow stronger individually to protect others, gain resonance, and even develop technology. This technology does not mean copying Earth’s, but rather summarizing Spiritual Law to form the spiritual technology of this realm. In Yun Ye’s eyes, these three paths are inseparable; without any one of them, the success rate would significantly drop, and the journey would become much more arduous. He must make full use of every moment to study the essence and gather experiences. The mortal order of Qinghe Spirit Land is the beginning of everything.
…
Splash!
Heavy rain poured down.
Xiang Qingrou stood on the riverbank, feeling the natural world around her.
Around her, a multitude of distortions formed, blocking the rain and resisting the fierce wind.
In the distance, Xiang Yan and Xiang Cong stood with their arms crossed, envy in their eyes.
“This is going to be a complete Spirit Law achievement, and it has been less than six months.”
Xiang Cong remarked.
“She has consumed plenty of Spirit Law spirit pills; if she cannot break through, I’ll definitely take action to punish her on behalf of the heir!”
Xiang Yan snorted coldly.
“Big talk. Although Qingrou is younger than us, she has already achieved great success in Spirit Law. Her strength is unimaginable; you might not win against her!”
Xiang Cong stated.
Spirit Law surpasses Spiritual Law by a significant margin. If it were not for Xiang Yan mastering Physical Law, he might not even be able to fight back and would be quickly overwhelmed, even if Xiang Yan had already perfected his Spiritual Law.
“It will be completely perfected!”
Xiang Yan declared.
With a loud rumble, the distortions around Xiang Qingrou suddenly expanded, clearing away all the rainwater within a kilometer and creating an invisible barrier.
Xiang Yan and Xiang Cong raised their hands to protect themselves, fearing they would be blown away, but the distortions simply passed over them without any effect, only isolating the rainwater.
Both of them showed expressions of surprise. In the past, Xiang Qingrou could not distinguish between friends and foes; she could only blow them all away together.
“Completing Spirit Law greatly enhances control. Now, my Spirit Law domain can avoid harming allies. Of course, I can also choose to unleash an explosion within a person. If they do not have the corresponding protective power, once this move is triggered, it would mean—boom.”
Xiang Qingrou opened her eyes and snapped her fingers.
“No wonder they say Spirit Law is terrifying; if I encounter a force capable of penetrating everything to attack me directly, it would indeed be frightening.”
The two felt a chill run through them.
They both knew what the explosion would target— the vital points of a cultivator, the brain!
Faced with such Spirit Law, even with a spirit energy domain, one would still suffer severe injuries.
To surpass Xiang Qingrou, one must completely overpower her with strength, just like their heir; otherwise, it’s truly difficult to win against her.
“The spiritual realm is fully perfected; next comes the law realms. Can you continue?”
Xiang Yan suddenly spoke seriously.
Unlike their predecessors, Xiang Qingrou, as a Spiritual Law practitioner, has reached a point where she has no path left and relies entirely on herself.
Xiang Qingrou shook her head slightly but firmly said, “I will continue.”
“Impressive.”
Xiang Yan and Xiang Cong exchanged glances, with only this thought in their minds.
Why do they all want to follow Yun Ye to the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect?
It’s simple; relying entirely on oneself to forge a new path is nearly impossible, almost certain to fail.
Only by joining the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect and obtaining the complete cultivation methods could they hope to smoothly break through to the law realms.
Even so, due to their talents, they might gain the methods but still be unable to breakthrough.
The final outcome, however, depends on how strong their heir is and how far he can go.
They are all in this together; when Yun Ye succeeds, they all succeed, and if he fails, they all fail.
As for whether Yun Ye would forget them after becoming successful, they never doubted that.
Although the heir is usually silent, they can all feel he is someone who values loyalty.
After the extermination of the Xiang Family, they did not really care about their clan, but more so, they wanted to create an atmosphere.
An atmosphere where revenge is unnecessary.
The force that could annihilate the Xiang Family must be the enemy of Elder Qushuang; that power is too terrifying. If the heir shows any desire for revenge, he would surely attract attention, and even within the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, he might not be safe.
Suddenly, everyone felt the sky brighten, and they couldn’t help but look up and say, “Huh, is the sky clearing?”
Wherever they looked, dark clouds filled the sky.
But then, golden light illuminated the heavens.
It spread a layer of warm golden light over the entire rainy scene.
The three of them quickly turned to face the direction of the cave.
They saw a great sun rise up.
Its light shone down, becoming the only source of illumination in the world.
“This is… a phenomenon?”
“The heir?”
Xiang Qingrou and the other two froze, their mouths unable to close for a long time.
This is a phenomenon!
