The Flow of Karmic Affinity Makes a Dao Child

The Demon Cultivator methods of the world of the Heavenly Wolf Sect, when initially practiced, are roughly divided into two categories: consuming human essence and swallowing moonlight.

The monsters in that world mostly practice a mix of two types, and very few specialize in one.

After all, demons often have a deeper wild impulse. Unless they encounter a famous teacher or by chance are moved by the warmth of the world when they are enlightened, they rarely choose to specialize in cultivating moonlight.

As for those evil demons who love to eat people and kill everywhere, they may seem to be destined to follow the path of cannibalism, but in reality, they would not reject the benefits of moon worship cultivation.

Teacher Xiaobai certainly can't do that.

Chu Tianshu was confident and started with the method of moon worship meditation used by demons, combining it with the visualization and cultivation methods of the Great Sun in the Great Void Divine Art to form a complete system.

Teacher Xiaobai already possessed a very refined foundation in boxing techniques and had abundant Yang energy within his body.

Begin by worshipping the moon, then move on to the sun, bathe in the essence of the sun and moon, refine your Qi and transform into a human form—this is just around the corner.

"Meow!"

"Although this cultivation method of mine was just pieced together, it is very detailed, so it's normal that you can't remember it all at once."

Chu Tianshu twirled an ice bowl in his right hand, carving words in his mind as he spoke. Now that the words were finished, he handed it to the kitten.

"This bowl contains the complete set of techniques. I've adjusted the font shape and color to better suit a cat's vision. Although it's icy, it's also..."

It's hard, so don't worry about it melting naturally.

Teacher Xiaobai happily flipped over and jumped, landing on her feet and hugging the bowl.

Chu Tianshu smiled, closed his eyes to rest, and tucked his hands into his sleeves.

The wide sleeves of the robe billowed and swayed without any wind.

A moment later, he opened his hands, and a continuous stream of ice crystal books floated out from his sleeves.

The ice crystal book, slightly bluish in color, contains small but profound engravings of text and illustrations, each character clearly visible.

Chen Ying waved his whisk, using his internal energy to support all the books. He opened one of them and was astonished to find every page filled with words, each one a gem.

"These are all the books you just created on the spot by condensing ice with your qi in your sleeve. You carved the words so quickly?"

Chu Tianshu clasped his hands together again, his sleeves still heaving, and said, "Yes, it'll be quick, won't it?"

He looked slightly happy.

In the past, when I went back to my hometown to organize the secret manuals, it would take at least several hours.

Now that he has achieved Returning Light, he can multitask, simultaneously engraving multiple books in an orderly and meticulous manner, at an extremely fast pace.

The key point is that even with this approach, the mental and physical exertion is minimal, and you won't feel tired.

Chen Ying opened another book and found that the handwriting and style were slightly different from the previous one.

When Chu Tianshu was inscribing it, he even managed to reproduce some of the original owner's brushstrokes.

"Wonderful!"

Chen Ying said softly, "Back then, when we copied scriptures, even if we couldn't copy a whole text, we would first study the handwriting and style of the masters of our time, and see how much hard work they put into calligraphy."

Even so, he only mastered one school of thought, and when he tried to study other schools of calligraphy, he only became more distant from them.

"The greater the barrier, the more one wants to understand it; it's like a sheet covering one's eyes, which must be pierced through."

She gently stroked the book in front of her, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"It's been a long time since I've experienced such a feeling, with so many unfamiliar and profound brushstrokes, waiting to be appreciated."

After Chen Ying became the master of the Grotto-Heaven, to be honest, her aura had already comprehended the operation of the Grotto-Heaven and was operating accordingly.

What kind of martial arts she originally practiced is no longer so important; what matters is her state of mind.

As a proper female Daoist priest, staying at home every day and reading cultivation manuals was the life she was most suited to.

Chu Tianshu smiled, then with a flick of his sleeves, another pile of books flew out, so many that they almost blocked his view, a sea of green.

Whoosh!!

The mountain wind blows through the trees in front of tourist attractions and antique-style buildings.

The once tightly packed, impenetrable green leaves were now scattered and shaken by the wind, revealing dappled sunlight.

Chu Tianshu and Feng Jianhua were transported out of the Grotto-Heaven as the tree shadows swayed, and they appeared leisurely under the tree.

"Ah, it's still so comfortable back home. Although this isn't Jianghuai yet, as my cultivation has deepened, I feel a distinct sense of comfort whenever I return from another world."

Chu Tianshu tilted his head slightly, listening to the sound of the wind and leaves, and looking at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers under the bright sunlight.

The city and bridge in the distance below the mountain, with a constant flow of vehicles and pedestrians.

If it were the old him, he could feel comfortable, but he wouldn't be able to pinpoint exactly where the comfort came from.

Now, however, he has been able to figure out some of the secrets.

Although he had formed connections in other worlds, the depth and breadth of those connections were still the most profound with his home world.

His relationships with tables, chairs, houses, and all kinds of objects, with relatives and friends, with his industry, with outsiders, and with the entire environment of earth and sky, are becoming increasingly profound.

It can be said that as long as he returns to this world, the probability of something happy and comfortable happening to him is always higher.

At its most basic level, this probability means that he is here with more people of similar cultural background, is more likely to appreciate the scenery, and is more likely to meet like-minded people, which naturally makes him feel more comfortable.

As for something deeper, he couldn't quite put his finger on it right now.

"The Demonic Sect's Qi-gathering and divination techniques can even predict the future of the Dao Child of Qingyun Sect fifty years from now. So that's how it is?"

Chu Tianshu seemed to sense something, recalling the prophecy of the Demonic Sect.

With so many arrangements made by the Patriarch Qingyun, if nothing goes wrong, the Illusory Moon Cave Abode will enter the world of the Seven Mountains of Qingyun Sect, and the spiritual energy of the Seven Mountains will be fully released, and the Qingyun Sect will surely usher in a prosperous era.

This is precisely a trend in the flow of karmic connections.

The Demonic Sect Sect's calculations go even deeper; their divination may, in the unseen realm, foretell the influence of cultivation culture on all people.

They vaguely calculated that at what time and in what place a person of exceptional talent might emerge, and if that person happened to encounter the good fortune of the Qingyun Sect, it would lead to the deeds of the "Dao Child of Qingyun Sect".

Demonic Sect itself might not fully understand the underlying theories, but by relying on treasures like the Wilderness Sacred Temple, they were indeed able to calculate the results.

"In that case, Wuchen is still alive and harbors the ambition to revive the land; he will surely return to Mount Qingyun to purify the earth's energy."

"Although the Illusory Moon Cave Abode is not exclusively owned by the Qingyun Sect, with the defeat of the Demonic Sect, the elimination of the Evil Spirit within the sword, and the sharing of cultivation techniques, the righteous path will have a better period of development."

"With the location, culture, and other conditions all met, the favorable karmic connection will only grow stronger than before, Dao Child of Qingyun Sect will still appear—"

Chu Tianshu rubbed the pads of his other four fingers with his left thumb, pondering in his mind, and suddenly chuckled.

"I just don't know whether, when Dao Child of Qingyun Sect is born, he will be Wuchen's disciple or Wuchen's grand-disciple."

Feng Jianhua didn't notice what Chu Tianshu was planning; he was on the phone after he came out.

It seems he first made two phone calls to the Golden Saber Martial Arts School to discuss some matters, and then spoke with Helai.

"What? Little Chu is back?"

Helai asked with delight, "You've been out for a long time this time, are you alright? Did you get hurt?"

Feng Jianhua laughed and said, "No, if he were injured while in the Grotto-Heaven, Daoist Priest Chen would definitely have noticed."

"That's good."

Helai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "But since he's not injured and knows the current situation, he definitely won't stay idle. You should tell him—"

When Helai to this point, Feng Jianhua immediately put the call on speakerphone.

Even without putting it on speakerphone, Chu Tianshu could still hear it, so he looked at his phone with amusement.

"Don't be too reckless and head straight for the Yellowstone Volcano."

Helai earnestly advised, "Old Feng, although you destroyed the processing plant, you didn't really reach the core area. But Little Chu has been gone for so long, he's probably made progress again. If you rush in and kill indiscriminately, it might trigger the Flame Demon."

"They can even develop missiles. From a distance, they might not be able to hit Little Chu, but if the core area becomes the battlefield, and they detonate them all in a crisis, Little Chu would probably be in great danger."

Chu Tianshu chuckled.

"Senior He, don't worry. Do I look like someone who's stubborn or headstrong?"

Helai paused for a moment.

I went to the Macau just to follow a book, but I ended up wandering into their Overflow Zone and ended up smashing the Ghost God statue in Guangling with my bare fists.

Go to Tianshan, lock yourself and a bunch of enemies in a secret realm, and engage in a life-or-death battle.

"I'm really not someone who kills indiscriminately; I always have a plan when I kill enemies."

Seeing this, Chu Tianshu added another sentence.

He is definitely not a reckless person; he always does things in a very planned way.

Unfortunately, any event that can be called a battle cannot be entirely planned by one side.

The enemy also has their own plans and is cunning, which will always introduce some variables into the plan, so we have to be more courageous and take some risks.

"Well then, we've discussed it and have a plan. What do you think of our approach?"

Helai abandoned ineffective rhetoric and offered suggestions.

"Yellowstone Volcano is in the northwest, yet its signal jamming can cover most of the country. Therefore, there's a high possibility of devices responding to this signal jamming in the southwest, with State of California being the prime suspect."

San Francisco is in California.

Although the Flame Demon's plans in San Francisco were thwarted once, California is far larger than San Francisco.

After Yellowstone Volcano was invaded by the Flame Demon, a large number of Ghost God, Spirit Realm, and monsters took the opportunity to enter the human world and spread their influence everywhere.

California a bustling, densely populated state with numerous industries, making it extremely difficult for people to relocate. This makes it a prime target for these monsters.

It is also a place where sorcerers and businessmen who seek wealth and fortune amidst danger provide substantial support.

After all, going directly to the vicinity of Yellowstone Volcano to do business is just too suicidal.

California is a good choice; it's a hub for many emerging goods.

"If the Flame Demon were to expand significantly, it would most likely be California that would take the lead, joining forces with the old army to form a new defensive line."

Helai, "We've reached an agreement with the Americans and sent quite a few people over, including Chen Taozhi. They've been active there recently; they're all your old subordinates. What do you say, we should go and see them?"

Feng Jianhua stroked his short beard and nodded vigorously.

"Your plans make a lot of sense. How come I didn't hear you come up with such a clear plan when I was over there?"

Upon Helai sighed helplessly and said, "The Flame Demon acted too quickly, and you rushed in too aggressively. You even lost contact at the time. How was I supposed to inform you of a plan that hadn't been analyzed yet?"

Chu Tianshu pondered for a moment, then nodded with a light laugh.

"Okay, let's go to California first."
