Ch. 741Zhen Yuanzi took the opposite path and grasped the ultimate truth
Zhen Yuanzi explained that he had refused to partner with Red Cloud or establish Mount Longevity Manor so he could escape his destined path and seek new possibilities through Lin Tian’s Spirit Vine School. Lin Tian accepted him as a disciple and sent two swastikas into his sea of consciousness, then addressed Houtu’s wish to save the Twelve Ancestral Witches.
- Zhen Yuanzi told Lin Tian that he had deliberately avoided his ordained future by refusing to form a Dao partnership with Red Cloud or establish Mount Longevity Manor.
- The Spirit Vine School disciples were moved by Zhen Yuanzi’s resolve, and Fuxi, Nuwa, and Houtu each reacted with admiration or emotion.
- Lin Tian recalled that he had once offered to accept Zhen Yuanzi after he found Red Cloud and established Mount Longevity Manor.
- Zhen Yuanzi asked Lin Tian to accept him despite his having given up both a Dao companion and a Dao field, and Lin Tian agreed.
- Lin Tian placed an Inverted Swastika and an Upright Swastika into Zhen Yuanzi’s sea of consciousness, then told Houtu that the Twelve Ancestral Witches lacked three souls and struggled to understand other beings.
