The Growth of a God-Chapter 515 - 13: The Reformer of the Celestial Human Realm

"Yu Wei, have you come to me again because you've encountered some trouble?"

Gently closing the "Sun Scripture," Li Hao took the initiative to call out the name of this Lotus Sect Saintess.

To be honest, Li Hao had no intention of revealing his identity at first.

However, not long after Li Hao infiltrated the Four Directions Mountain, the contemporary Saintess of the Lotus Sect sought him out and instantly revealed his identity as an "Exotic God."

According to Yu Wei's account, ever since the second War of the End of the Dharma, Outer Heaven Demon and Outer Evil God have sporadically appeared in this world.

For a sect like the Lotus Sect that has never had a break in history, documenting such occurrences is not a difficult task.

So when Nine Peaks Mountain transmitted the news of an anomaly in the "Sun Corona Disc" to other Immortal Mountains, the Lotus Sect had an inkling of what was happening.

Following that, Yu Wei briefly liberated the Lotus Seal at her brow and used the power of past Saintesses of the Lotus Sect to divine the future.

In the end, Yu Wei saw a Winged Serpent coiled in the sun somewhere on Four Directions Mountain.

The opponent seemed particularly confident in their power, not even attempting to conceal their presence seriously.

Even when Yu Wei sought them out, they only showed a hint of surprise and displayed no other expressions.

"It's still about the Lotus Seal."

Without any concealment, Yu Wei nodded.

Even though she was a Saintess of the Lotus Sect...

Even though she possessed the Lotus Seal containing the power of past Saintesses of the Lotus Sect...

Yu Wei did not enjoy using this power and was constantly trying to free herself from the mark's constraints.

"You are indeed the most pure inheritor of Celestial Being..."

"Wanting to enjoy the power but unwilling to pay any price."

Shaking his head gently, Li Hao sighed noncommittally.

"The Lotus Seal is the cultivation technique devised by your Lotus Sect after the decline of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, to potentially produce another Celestial Being."

"Since one person's power cannot achieve Celestial Being, let the most talented individuals of each generation strive together, ultimately nurturing a true Celestial Being in this End of the Dharma Era."

"I have no intention of evaluating the feasibility of this approach."

"But it was indeed the cultivation technique most likely to become Celestial Being before the 'True Martial Demon-Vanquishing Scripture' became widespread."

"If there is a single flaw, it might be that the obsessions hidden within the Lotus Seal of past generations would drive successors to become Celestial Being at any cost."

— Obsession turning into madness, insanity turning into frenzy.

This is also an important reason why the Saintesses of the Lotus Sect are so obsessive.

Of course, from the perspective of a normal cultivator in the Celestial Human Realm, they would not consider such obsessions problematic.

Whether influenced by obsessions or not, cultivators in the Celestial Human Realm advance with the goal of becoming Celestial Being.

It is just that such extremism like the Saintesses of the Lotus Sect, where contact with Exotic Gods and Demons is not shunned in order to become Celestial Beings, is still a minority.

"It's not that I'm unwilling to pay the price."

Looking up at Li Hao, Yu Wei's voice was sonorous and powerful.

Since the moment she made the deal with this unknown Sun God, Yu Wei was prepared to pay any price.

"I just want to make my own choice, instead of accepting the fate of the Lotus Sect Saintess from ancient times."

Call it rebellion or dissatisfaction...

Yu Wei wants to become a Celestial Being but does not want to become a Celestial Being of the Lotus Sect.

Moreover, her purpose is not like that of her predecessors, who pursued infinite life and a free life.

"You also want to change this world, don't you, Sun Star Monarch's maid?"

Seeing through Yu Wei's thoughts at a glance, Li Hao asked in a lowered voice, as if he had expected this.

"I can't hide from you."

A bit surprised, Yu Wei opened her eyes briefly before resuming her calm.

"But compared to being called 'Sun Star Monarch's maid,' I actually prefer being called 'Wei Yang Maid.'"

With a face full of reminiscent expressions, at this moment, Yu Wei is no longer the Lotus Sect Saintess, but a fellow traveler who once dared to launch a revolution with the Sun Star Monarch.

"Would you mind telling me about that history?"

Seeing this, Li Hao timely expressed his curiosity.

"Regarding that 'War of the End of the Dharma' two hundred years ago, the related records here are practically scarce."

"I'm very interested in that history that was intentionally buried, especially in that reformist you all call 'Sun Star Monarch.'

.........................................................

Sun Star Monarch is a great reformist; this is an indisputable fact.

However, Sun Star Monarch was not a lone man, nor was he a tyrant acting heedlessly.

Since the inception of his revolution, he found a group of like-minded partners in the Immortal Mountain and Archipelago.

Thus, the major reform of the past was not Sun Star Monarch fighting against the entire Cultivation Realm all by himself, but the Cultivation Realm splitting into two camps due to ideological contention.

In the struggle between these two camps, countless cultivators perished, and countless mortals became sacrificed.

At the final moment of the grand battle, the Immortal Mountain Archipelago camp forced Sun Star Monarch to appear by slaughtering all beings, thereby seizing the opportunity to trap him.

The war shook the heavens and shattered the earth, leaving the entire land devastated.

Whether it was the Immortal Mountain Archipelago camp or the Sun Star Monarch's camp...

In the annihilation war with a mortality rate exceeding fifty percent, no cultivator emerged unscathed.

Even post-war, members of the Sun Star Monarch's camp faced over a hundred years of persecution and were hunted down, only disappearing from sight in recent decades.

Nevertheless, disappearing does not mean being eradicated completely.

On the contrary, Sun Star Monarch had anticipated the possibility of reckoning after his failure from the beginning of his reform.

Hence, the majority of cultivators who joined Sun Star Monarch were allowed to remain anonymous and conceal their faces.

"And this was his true cause of death..."

With boundless sorrow, Yu Wei murmured softly.

Allowing anonymity and concealing appearances meant that no one would know even if traitors emerged from Sun Star Monarch's camp.

The one thing Yu Wei could confirm is that, at the critical point of that grand battle, there was definitely more than one traitor who backstabbed Sun Star Monarch.

For years, she had been tracking those traitors' whereabouts to avenge Sun Star Monarch.

"He was too kind, too naive."

"Human nature is unpredictable, especially for those like him, virtually destined to oppose the entire world."

"His every move was watched by countless people, and his every benevolent thought would become a direct inducement to his death."
