Chapter 1375: Generosity

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

The foundational mantra of Emperor Gu’s lineage was the Ancient Immortality Scripture. It deduced the secrets of immortality and the true meaning of life.

The Ancient Satanic Sect’s most advanced collection was the Ancient Satanic Mantra, but they also had other mantras like the Ancient Satanic Avici Scripture which were related to the Ancient Satanic Mantra. Similarly, the Ancient Immortality Scripture also involved other branches of mantras, which included the Holy Lihuo Mantra. It allowed one to cultivate one of the Seven Legendary Primordial Fires, the Nanming Primordial Fire.

The Nanming Primordial Fire was very effective in battle. Another of its magical use involved the cultivation of pills. There was nothing like it.

Since Emperor Gu in the Antiquity Age, the Gu lineage controlled the Nanming Primordial Fire. This also enabled them to excel in pill cultivation.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders now possessed all of the Seven Legendary Primordial Fires. Lin Feng’s eldest disciple, the Flaming Emperor Xiao Yan, also controlled many of the Seven Legendary Primordial Fires.

The Primordial Fires contained one of the greatest explosive strength in the world. They couldn’t co-exist together; putting them in the same place would only cause trouble.

Even though Xiao Yan could possess many of the primordial fires at once and his disciples could cultivate his Burning Heavens Mantra, most of them had their limits. No one was able to gather so many primordial fires just like Xiao Yan.

The Nanming Primordial Fire was one out of the three primordial fires that Xiao Yan controlled since the beginning.

Xiao Yan excelled in pill cultivation and magic item cultivation. Even if he didn’t have the Nanming Primordial Fire, his pill cultivation skills were still superior to the entire Divine Lands. He’s recognized as the best pill cultivator in the Divine Lands right now. Even so, the Nanming Primordial Fire did aid him greatly in his pill cultivation.

He was also the strongest in magic item cultivation among Lin Feng’s Immediate Disciples. The contribution of the Nanming Primordial Fire was also immeasurable.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders and Xiao Yan managed to obtain the Nanming Primordial Fire because Xiao Zhener secretly passed the Nanming Primordial Fire’s kindling as well as the Holy Lihuo Mantra to Xiao Yan many years ago.

Due to the fact that the Holy Lihuo Mantra belonged to Emperor Gu’s lineage, Xiao Yan combined the Burning Heavens Mantra and figured out the Nanming Primordial Fire on his own. He also came up with the Nanming Saddharma and passed it down to his disciples.

Whether it was the Nanming Saddharma or the Holy Lihuo Mantra, they could be used to cultivate the Nanming Primordial Fire.

Xiao Yan opened both his palms now and revealed the Nanming Primordial Fire. Everyone was a little perplexed by his actions.

However, the Gu Empire cultivators stared at the fire and sensed the power concept within. Their expressions changed.

Firstly, it was the current Emperor Gu, Gu Jun. This was followed by Gu Yuankai and Gu Cheng, who managed to tell the problem. The eyes of Gu Peng and the other Immortal Soul Stage Elders from the Gu Empire also brightened.

Everyone stared at each other and Gu Peng was a little hesitant as he looked at Gu Yuankai and Gu Cheng, “Xiao Yan used this Nanming Primordial fire to deduce a mantra, but it’s not the Nanming Saddharma. It’s like our Holy Lihuo Mantra, but…it’s slightly different?”

Gu Yuankai took in a deep breath before he exhaled, “It’s not like that. It’s even more exquisite than our Holy Lihuo Mantra.”

Gu Peng and the rest were stunned. They could also subtly sense this, but they couldn’t tell just by watching. After hearing Gu Yuankai’s words, their guesses were verified, and they were shocked.

Gu Cheng sensed the power concept from the fire and nodded his head, “Ninth uncle is right. It’s much better than our Holy Lihuo Mantra.”

Gu Peng muttered, “This gift is very unclear.”

Emperor Gu’s lineage had many powerful cultivators since the Antiquity Age.

For mantras like the Ancient Immortality Scripture and the Holy Lihuo Mantra, they had been studied by many of the past elders and continuously revised.

They had mended whatever flaws there were and enhanced whatever there was to be enhanced.

It was very difficult to make any further progress at this stage. The more advanced the mantra was, the more difficult to make it even better. Every enhancement was very valuable.

However, the Nanming Primordial Fire that Xiao Yan presented undoubtedly carried a deeper concept of the Holy Lihuo Mantra, far superior to Emperor Gu’s lineage’s Holy Lihuo Mantra. The enhancement was extremely significant.

“If it’s only the Holy Lihuo Mantra, then it’s fine.” Gu Cheng looked at Gu Peng and communicated with him, “The key lies in the Ancient Immortality Scripture!”

Gu Peng was in shock after hearing his words.

If not for the fact that he was an Immortal Soul Second Level Elder, he might not be able to control his entire body now.

Xiao Zhener only passed the Holy Lihuo Mantra to Xiao Yan but she didn’t leak the Ancient Immortality Scripture.

However, Gu Cheng and Gu Peng knew that the Celestial Sect of Wonders possessed the Great Nine Heavens Holy Sword Technique. The Mahayana-level treasure Cang Heaven Spell Blades was also in the hands of the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

The sword will of the East Cang Heaven Sword could deduce the concepts of the mantras from Emperor Gu’s lineage before reproducing them. This included the true meaning of the art of swordplay that involved the concept of ancient immortality.

While the Ancient Immortality Scripture was different, it pointed to the same path.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders might not be able to use the East Cang Heaven Sword to deduce the Ancient Immortality Scripture, but they might be able to lay their hands on the origin of it.

The Karmic Theory Debate slowly appeared in Gu Cheng and Gu Peng’s mind.

Gu Peng calmed down and his brows furrowed. After that, he said, “But we didn’t sense any feedback during our normal cultivation.”

Gu Cheng said slowly, “This is where the Celestial Sect of Wonders is meticulous. The Holy Lihuo Mantra is only just a bait. They’ll only help us if we want them to help us enhance the Ancient Immortality Scripture. We may not even need to provide the original version of the Ancient Immortality Scripture.”

“Whereas enhancing the Ancient Immortality Scripture is the greatest gift that the Celestial Sect of Wonders is including in this betrothal gift!”

“They won’t force us if we’re unwilling. But this is how they’re showing their sincerity.”

Gu Peng looked at Lin Feng, who was very calm, before looking at the Nanming Primordial Fire in Xiao Yan’s hands. “The Holy Lihuo Mantra is different from the Ancient Immortality Scripture. The latter involves a lot of knowledge. Will the Celestial Sect of Wonders be able to…”

As he said till here, he stopped. That’s because he thought of the Karmic Theory Debate.

Gu Peng couldn’t help but sigh. “This is their true generosity.”

Gu Cheng nodded his head in agreement, “That’s right. This is indeed where they’re generous.”

The Gu Empire might be able to repay other gifts, but this was too valuable.

The overall enhancement of the Ancient Immortality Scripture wouldn’t only benefit Gu Jun and other cultivators in the Gu Empire. Even the destiny-level treasure Longevity Lotus Seat could benefit.

At the Gu Jun’s stage, it was very difficult to progress any further. Any type of progress was considered precious.

The Gu Empire was a little hesitant even though they were tempted. The potential benefits they could reap from this overweighed the awkwardness that might arise from allowing others to enhance their own mantra.

Gu Peng’s expression turned slightly weird and he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “The Celestial Sect of Wonders really make us seem as if we’re selling our women.”

Gu Cheng joked, “Who’s like you – arranging his own niece to be sold?”

The bunch of Gu Empire elders was all delighted now.

The rest of the cultivators were a little lost now. Only Ji Wenrui and the Thunderclouds Holy Man were slightly moved. They stared at the Nanming Primordial Fire in Xiao Yan’s palms and entered deep thought.

Both the Purple Clouds Sect and Mount Shu Sword Sect had been around for a very long time. They had experienced the era when the Emperor Gu ruled the Divine Lands. They were fully aware of everything regarding Emperor Gu’s lineage, or at least they were much more aware than the rest. They even had many ancient collections with their own sects.

However, they weren’t able to understand just like the Gu Empire cultivators and recognized the brilliance behind Xiao Yan’s Holy Lihuo Mantra.

But they could tell that Xiao Yan wasn’t just displaying the Nanming Primordial Fire. He was using the fire to prove something.

At such a time, Gu Jun and the others were not in a position to appraise the mantra that Xiao Yan had deduced.

Ji Wenrui and the Thunderclouds Holy Man recalled the Karmic Theory Debate and they appeared very excited.

At this point, Xiao Yan bowed towards everyone from the Gu Empire. He smiled and said, “I benefited from your lineage when I cultivated the Nanming Primordial Fire. Now that I’ve made progress, it’s just a small gift. I hope it’s not too bad.”

Everyone reacted after they heard his words. They were shocked as they looked at Xiao Yan and Lin Feng.

More and more people started to connect the Holy Lihuo Mantra to the Ancient Immortality Scripture.

After this, they also thought of their own mantras.

Everyone started to have mixed feelings now.

During the Karmic Theory Debate, the rest of the sects in the Divine Lands entered a period of internal instability. The difference in opinions catalyzed that instability.

Nothing similar happened after that. Although no one forgot about the matter, its influence slowly died off after a while.

However, there was still a slight influence. Just a catalyst was needed to spark another round of instability again.

Right now, there was a such a case in front of them. They were unable to remain calm now.

Everyone hoped that their own sect could progress and overcome any bottlenecks that they were facing.

If others improved while one remained stagnant, it was equivalent to deterioration.

Lin Feng looked at Gu Jun at this moment and smiled, “Sorry to have made ourselves a laughing stock. Please don’t blame us for being so abrupt. This last gift has a catch to it – it’s related to what I want to discuss later.”

Lin Feng recognized the concepts of revenge and gratitude. After all, the Gu Empire was not a lackey of the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

Gu Jun remained calm and smiled, “Your words are too serious. Whatever it is, the Gu Empire is grateful to you.”
