Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 1139: Chapter 41: The Path of Fate

The Dao of Destiny began with its discovery by Wang Sheng, but he always lacked a clear direction.

There seemed to be no trace of such a Dao in the starry sky.

Unable to comprehend it from the stars, he decided to take another path.

Just as he birthed the Reincarnation Dao, he sought to bring forth the Dao of Destiny.

Over a millennium, he noticed the opportunity lay with his disciple-to-be, Liang Guang, and surprisingly, even from a planet where opportunities had been severed, Liang Guang could still reach the top hundred of the starry sky.

Like Destiny Threads, he took Liang Guang as his disciple, closing all loops of fate shown by those threads.

In the end, the result did not disappoint him.

He touched the threshold of destiny.

“As for destiny, once fixed, it has a beginning and an end; a start implies a conclusion. Liang Guang’s life and story naturally do not end here, but the destiny outlined by the Destiny Threads concludes when I took the Source Pen and accepted him as a disciple. This is ’end,’ completing a cycle of destiny.”

It was due to this cycle that he perceived a trace of destiny’s essence.

Not that he successfully manifested the Dao of Destiny, but he indeed stepped through the door.

A brand-new progress bar was the best proof.

“Dao of Destiny (Creation): 1%”

’To create the Dao of Destiny means I just need to wait now, and naturally I will comprehend it, directly becoming its master.’

The Dao of Destiny was different from the Reincarnation Dao this time.

The Reincarnation Dao was fully born within the hell and naturally evolved in the starry sky.

Therefore, to master the Reincarnation Dao, he still needed understanding; of course, because he created the hell, completely under his control, comprehending the Reincarnation Dao was simple, even effortless, but even so, it was not as convenient as the Dao of Destiny.

The Dao of Destiny had yet to evolve in the stars; once he let it evolve, he controlled not just a place, but the Dao itself.

’I did not expect such great gains, somewhat surprising, even if it takes longer, it’s acceptable.’

Though Wang Sheng initially aimed for creation, the most he hoped for was a result similar to the Reincarnation Dao.

Yet the result now was evidently better than the Reincarnation Dao, leaving him very satisfied.

Due to the perfection of Destiny Threads, he fell into a momentary daze.

Liang Guang, due to the closure of the Destiny Threads loop, was undergoing changes.

With the disappearance of Destiny Threads, he did not, as before, get struck by mysterious energy; instead, he gained the Dao’s favor.

If he could cultivate to the Twelfth Realm, comprehending the Dao would be a natural result.

Even with some opportunity, the Eleventh Realm could comprehend the Dao.

It could be said the future path of cultivation, as long as he didn’t abruptly perish, would be smooth.

Of course, he was unaware of this point.

Wang Sheng came back to his senses, and looked at him again: “Very good, come with me; there will be trials waiting for you, and if all goes well, reaching the Twelfth Realm won’t be a problem.”

Liang Guang himself did not realize it, but in fact, he was a great help.

After all, if Liang Guang hadn’t carefully planned step by step when using the Source Pen, but merely scribbled vague contents, the Destiny Threads wouldn’t appear.

Thus, his research on the Dao of Destiny would not have gone so smoothly.

Liang Guang had no objections and left with Wang Sheng.

In fact, with the end of the competition, this banquet had already concluded.

Only people stayed to see who the True Saint had chosen as a disciple.

Now that the discipleship was complete, there was no reason to stay.

The crowd felt somewhat sentimental.

“Unexpectedly, the True Saint did not choose the first name but rather picked someone who didn’t even make it into the top fifty.”

“The True Saint never said he’d choose the first name; although surprising, it’s not unacceptable. Besides, haven’t you noticed that the cultivator chosen as a disciple by the True Saint is obviously known to him? The contestant might have been predetermined for discipleship.”

“Predetermined? Maybe, but I think it’s more likely that the True Saint treated this conference as a test, a test of whether that person was eligible to be a disciple. Clearly, the test was passed!”

“That’s all it takes to pass? Getting into the top hundred is indeed extraordinary, but there are many more outstanding than him.”

“Haha, do you still not understand the situation of those in the top fifty?”

Anything related to the True Saint always sparks discussions in both the Old Earth and New Earth across the starry sky.

Many pieces of information were analyzed.

The conclusion that the second Immortal Fruit conference was specially held by the True Saint to test his disciple became mainstream.

This relieved some cultivators who barely exceeded three thousand years old.

After all, despite their qualified age, they had no opportunity to become disciples.

The rewards of the top hundred were missed though.

This time, the top hundred gained a lot of cultivation resources, many reportedly refined personally by the True Saint.

Greatly advantageous for improving cultivation.

However, nothing was as enticing as becoming a True Saint Disciple.

Still, involving cultivators, few could bypass the True Saint.

Wang Sheng himself, being the True Saint, didn’t care much about such fame.

After bringing Liang Guang back, arrangements were made, letting his senior brother and sister, Qingfeng and Mingyue, lead him in cultivation.

While he continued to comprehend the Dao of Destiny.

Yet this did not last long.

“Dao of Destiny (Creation): 1%”

He knew that completely comprehending the Dao of Destiny would be difficult, requiring a long time; however, after actual comprehension for a period, he discovered it was harder than he imagined.
