Fusang Wood...
No wonder Lu Yao cares so much about the Jiushan Sect.
If it were him, he wouldn’t be able to let it go either.
But what Zheng Fa is concerned about now is another issue: "What is the Human Saint position? What exactly does the Hongng Purple Qi do?"
Hong Jun Taoist stood up, glanced at the classroom within the Rainbow Mountain, pondered slightly, and said, "In your terms, it determines the future of civilization."
"The future?"
Even Tang Lingwu was taken aback; clearly, the term was a bit overwhelming.
"The Hongng Purple Qi crosses all heavens, after Nuwa created humans, the respective rules in any universe were already decided..."
"Rules? Decided what?"
"The physical rules you refer to," Hong Jun, a learned man, explained in quite modern terms, "Proton mass, charge number, and so on... Under the determination of these rules, the most likely intelligent life to erge in a universe is actually not much different. That Hongng Purple Qi from Nuwa determines the initial appearance of the Human Clan."
With this explanation, Zheng Fa could understand a bit more.
In the context of the Modern World, since there is no Spiritual Energy, the ergence of life seems unrelated to Nuwa and is a result of evolution. Yet, due to the existence of foundational physical rules, it ultimately produced a Human Clan identical to that of the Xuanwei Realm.
"And the final Hongng Purple Qi represents the end of the Human Clan."
"The end of the Human Clan?"
"What do you think the Dao Fruit is? What is the difference between my cultivation thod and the ones you currently practice?"
Hong Jun’s remark plunged Zheng Fa into silence. He pondered for a long ti and finally, with a sowhat uncertain voice, said: "Collective. The current Xuanwei Immortal Dao emphasizes the collective more."
This was the most notable difference he noticed while listening to the teachings at the Purple Cloud Palace.
In the Purple Cloud Palace, with its three thousand guests, each had their own cultivation thod, yet none required the Three Talents nor rituals—they achieved the Dao when there wasn’t even a Human Clan.
Within the Xuanwei Immortal Dao, the most crucial "audience," in the era of Hong Jun’s teachings, did not exist.
Even after Dao Fruit, the thod of relying on the descendants for cultivation was even more absent.
"These are also the rules left by the Supre and others."
Hong Jun Taoist smiled and explained.
"So, it seems, what Nuwa decided is the birth appearance of the Human Clan, while the other five saints decided the path of cultivation for the Human Clan?"
Indeed, even establishing a sect inherently carried connotations of inheritance and belief.
"In terms of origins and innate endownts, the Human Clan is far inferior to any Innate Divine," Hong Jun Taoist explained, "But as you said, the Human Clan, collectively overwhelms the few."
With this, Zheng Fa finally gained a rough understanding of the mysteries he had accumulated about the Xuanwei Immortal Dao over the years.
A thought suddenly burst in his mind:
Each Dao Fruit represents a civilization!
The Dharma Body Technique is a family civilization.
The Divine Dao Skill is a divine civilization.
And as for the Yang God Technique, it is structured like a master-disciple sect.
Dao Fruit cultivators are rely the ones who decide the will of a civilization.
A figure erged in Zheng Fa’s mind, and as if already expecting it, Hong Jun Taoist smiled and asked, "Thinking of the Gu God?"
"Yes, is the Human Clan itself a kind of lifeform?"
Hong Jun Taoist laughed, turning his gaze towards the distant city, where his eyes reflected people laughing, working hard, and full of hope.
"We hope so."
Only now does Zheng Fa understand why the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Secret Realm exists; it is sothing Hong Jun and the six saints wish to leave for the recipients of the Hongng Purple Qi.
Just like the Gu God, the Human Clan spread across the Ten Thousand Worlds has caught the attention of Hong Jun and the saints.
Each individual, in their eyes, is like one of the Gu God’s worms, forming a cell of this vast lifeform.
Yet, every human is wiser, and has more potential than those worms.
It is precisely because of this that if the Human Clan is seen as a lifeform akin to the Gu God, its power and wisdom will far exceed all cultivators throughout history, including saints like Nuwa.
Nuwa’s creation of humans was never for any one person or for awaiting so kind of prodigious cultivator—as said before, when it cos to talent, how could the Human Clan compare to Nuwa and others?
What she created was a race, what the Supre Taoist and others educated was also a race.
Ever since the birth of the Human Clan, with the Three Talents complete, the Immortal Dao had already changed, and thus the Xuanwei Immortal Dao was born.
"The final Hongng Purple Qi marks the maturity point of Human civilization." Seeing that Zheng Fa seed to have understood, Hong Jun Taoist smiled and said, "It can only belong to the Human Clan and can only be controlled by them."
"It decides what path the Human Clan will take."
"What kind of philosophy it will adhere to."
"Even what kind of cultivation thod it will adopt."
"It determines the future of the Human Clan."
The figure of Hong Jun Taoist slowly dissipated, leaving only his final words lingering over the Rainbow Mountain: "Daoist Zheng, you must choose."
...
Hong Jun left, while Zheng Fa remained dazed at the nursing ho, unsure of what he felt.
Now he understood why the five saints were so eager to give him that inheritance treasure.
In essence, whichever force he joined would be the ultimate victor in this educational contest.
According to Hong Jun Taoist’s words, this Hongng Purple Qi truly allows the Human Clan to mature, or one could say, beco an entity—as it was inappropriately put, without this Hongng Purple Qi, the Human Clan would rely be a collection of Gu worms; with it, they could coalesce into a Gu God.
But Zheng Fa’s first feeling was not pride, but pressure...
At this mont, he truly felt sowhat reluctant to possess the Hongng Purple Qi.
