Previously in the Upper Realm, after Xie Feng became the top Newcomer Ranking, the Heavenly Ranking rewarded him with seven lifetimes of reincarnation.
When he reached his sixth incarnation, due to a spacetime distortion, he mistakenly entered the universe of a woman in a silver dress, so his cultivation in this life was not completed. In fact, he stopped after only five incarnations.
Afterwards, he gifted the elders of the sect a lifetime of cultivation.
One last lifetime!
At this moment, he is using this last chance of reincarnation!
This time, Xie Feng's will is focused on cultivating in the mortal world!
Explore mountains and rivers, cross great rivers!
He sailed across the vast ocean. On the shore stood a stone tablet inscribed with the two large characters " Sea of Learning "!
The book says that diligence is the path.
The Sea of Learning is boundless, and diligence is the only boat to cross it!
He was dressed in blue, as elegant as jade, holding a book in his hand, exuding an ethereal and otherworldly aura.
It is surrounded by towering mountains and winding ridges, the walls of which are covered with writing!
Ruyan of words!
Xie Feng's gaze swept across the text, line after line, ancient, distorted, and modern—each character radiating boundless golden light...
That is the power of knowledge!
On the Sea of Learning, the winds of change are ever-shifting, and stars fall from the sky, crashing into the vast ocean!
It hit Xie Feng!
In that instant!
He had a sudden epiphany!
Bang!
A beam of white light shot straight into the sky!!
This pillar of light is imbued with boundless knowledge Literary Qi!
This powerful Literary Qi surged forth from Xie Feng, condensing into Literary Qi possessing unparalleled power, forming a golden, wondrous script that enveloped him!
These gold characters are...
Heaven and earth possess righteous energy, which manifests in various forms.
Below are rivers and mountains, above are the sun and stars.
In people, it is called "vast and righteous," which overflows and fills the vast sky.
The imperial road should be clear and peaceful, and the court should be serene and bright.
True character is revealed in times of adversity, and its deeds will be remembered in history!
At this moment, Xie Feng's aura was so powerful that it was unmatched!
At that moment, he achieved enlightenment!
Vast Righteous Qi!
He grasped the Vast Righteous Qi spirit that symbolizes the intellectual class!
Bang!
The Sea of Learning stirs up a vast expanse of water!
Xie Feng's Literary Dao cultivation was also rising steadily, and earth-shattering changes were taking place within his body!
Cultural traditions are being expanded at an alarming pace!
Six hundred!
Nine hundred!
A thousand!
One thousand and two!
One thousand and five!
His cultivation level reached the Late Literary Constitution!
The cultural lineage continues to expand, and Xie Feng timely suppressed this surging energy!
There's an old saying that goes, "Don't bite off more than you can chew."
He's not greedy!
The extent of one's literary tradition is related to one's level of understanding, but not to Vast Righteous Qi!
Vast Righteous Qi are things that require talent; those without talent will never be able to cultivate Vast Righteous Qi in their entire lives!
The earlier you attain enlightenment, the greater your future achievements will be!
Vast Righteous Qi are like something with potential; when you're pushed to the limit, it can unleash countless times its power!
"Hiss... Wen Tianxiang..."
Xie Feng looked at the Song of Righteous Qi surrounding him, took a deep breath, and his gaze became heavy as he fell into memories.
He stood alone at the bow of the boat, gazing up at the surging waves of the vast sea, and murmured to himself:
He was born in the war-torn Southern Song Dynasty...
He was a passionate and patriotic minister who resisted the Yuan dynasty...
He is a hero brimming with righteous spirit...
He was a lone hero who would rather die than kneel towards the south...
He was a man of unwavering loyalty and integrity, a scholar whose spirit encompassed the world...
"After his death, Vast Righteous Qi was born between heaven and earth! His life was just as he said—'Since ancient times, who has ever escaped death? Let my loyal heart shine in history!'"
Xie Feng lowered his head, his heart filled with turmoil. As a Chinese from his previous life, he would forever remember such sages!
Heroes, never forget...
The small boat sailed slowly, arriving at the end of the Sea of Learning. With a shift in space, Xie Feng stepped into a new region.
Time slips through your fingers like sand...
After an unknown amount of time, his consciousness returned to his original body, ending his seventh reincarnation.
call...
Slowly exhaling a breath of stale air, Xie Feng opened his eyes.
In this cycle of reincarnation, his Literary Dao cultivation greatly improved, and he also gained Vast Righteous Qi. Moreover, his Martial Dao cultivation successfully broke through the bottleneck and reached the First Stage of the Dao Venerable Realm!
He stood up and stretched. Just then, a woman in purple slowly approached. She had a cold and stern look in her eyes, and was both beautiful and ruthless.
Dust Clan Chief, Chen Ling!
Upon seeing Xie Feng, she suddenly raised an eyebrow. "You seem... even more formidable?"
Xie Feng shrugged, releasing the pressure of his cultivation, and laughed, "Not bad!"
Chen Ling said somewhat seriously, "Tomorrow is the decisive battle between the Dust Clan and the Nether Clan!"
"What's wrong? Are you nervous?"
"It concerns the safety of our race; it would be a lie to say I'm not nervous!"
"With me here, what is there to fear?"
"It's not fear, it's nervousness!"
"Being nervous is being afraid, and being afraid is being nervous. What's the difference?"
"You're an educated person, can't you distinguish the difference?"
"I..."
Xie Feng was speechless!
Good grief, this is something he can't figure out!
yes!
He's a scholar; how could he not understand?
Otherwise, wouldn't it just be half-baked?
While Xie Feng remained silent, Chen Ling took two steps forward, put her hands behind her back, and said, "To be honest, the Dust Clan can only be considered a mid-to-upper-tier power, not a top-tier race. There are truly unparalleled geniuses in the world, such as Pei Jue, Lü Yan, and Ming Ji among the ten clans! Of course, you are one too!"
Xie Feng frowned slightly. "You always talk about the ten clans, but what are the ten clans of the Dao Realm?"
" The Literary Clan, the Ghost Clan, the Blaze Clan, the Snow Clan, the Moon Clan, the Spirit Clan, the Pill Clan, the Dark Sea Clan, the Star Clan, and the Cloud Clan —these are the ten renowned clans!"
"They are all powerful, possessing strong foundations and resources. In terms of status, apart from the Literary Clan being slightly higher, the others are equally matched. The Literary Clan is the true pyramid-shaped race in the Dao Realm!"
"Do you know why the language of the Dao Realm is also called the Written Language '? It's because of the power of the Literary Clan! Powerful enough to change the language of an entire universe!"
"Among them, the Dark Sea Clan, the Star Clan, and the Cloud Clan are all reclusive great clans, but what makes them terrifying is that although they do not exist in the martial arts world, their legends continue to circulate, and people are controlled by them!"
"Why should I tell you all this? The most important thing right now is the duel between our two races. Although the Nether Clan is not one of the ten races, they seem to have some connection with the Spirit Clan, which is why the Nether Clan can bully my Dust Clan!"
Chen Ling shook his head, his gaze turning cold.
Xie Feng glanced at her, then looked up and said, "Judging from your expression, it seems you have other plans."
Chen Ling's eyes flashed, and a sharp glint suddenly crossed her beautiful face. She nodded and said, "The duel between the Dust Clan and the Nether Clan is a contract that the loser will be sealed off and never allowed to leave the clan. This is the contract I made with Netherworld, the patriarch of the Nether Clan, but I don't trust him!"
"If you knew, the weak have no diplomacy! The only person I can trust is myself! I will kill Netherworld during your duel! But there's one thing I need to ask of you: I hope you can use the Extreme Dao Sword to help me!"
"I have to fight the Xuan Mao, and I also need to use the Extreme Dao Sword. I'm going to fight the Netherworld with you. You're really going to drain me dry..." Xie Feng shook his head.
This is a crucial moment!
"It seems I have no obligation to help you that much."
"Make your request! State it! I'll do my best to fulfill it." Chen Ling frowned, staring intently at Xie Feng.
