Chapter 1286: Chapter 1174: Taking Action Again
Here is the translation:
The fire of the human world ignites!
The anomaly instantly startled the entire Nine Forbidden Continents.
No matter where the beings were, they could see that above the Primordial Fla Mountain of the Divine Fire Continent, an enormous invisible Sacred Fla was burning. Within the fla, resounded a thunderous voice that shook the world.
“Do not worship gods, do not seek saviors, do not wait for heroes.”
“The place where you stand is the Pure Land, the sight before your eyes is the other shore. The Sea of Suffering has no bounds; only humans can save themselves!”
Deafening and soul-stirring, this voice struck directly into the hearts of everyone, awakening beings across the world, inspiring transformation.
On the Nine Continents, billions of beings ignited countless sparks, converging towards the Divine Fire Continent. At this mont, the fire of humanity beca imnsely fierce, almost breaking through the sky vault!
…
anwhile, in the Land of Darkness.
“The fire of humanity… cannot ignite!”
The Stopper calmly pointed a single finger.
With this gesture, the entire dark space, including the Silent One and the other cultivators, montarily froze, succumbing to the Stopper’s Dao. None of them could move.
Simultaneously, this finger penetrated the vast Forbidden World in an instant!
Across the Nine Continents, the infinite sparks of faith, resembling countless streams rging into one, converged towards the Divine Fire Continent.
However, suddenly, above the heavens, a colossal, illusory finger swept across the Nine Continents, freezing everything in its path.
Even the flawless flas of faith, dancing monts earlier, seed to solidify, rendered motionless.
The Stopper’s Unmoving Dao affected not only the corporeal—epheral ntal thoughts and elusive flas of faith were halted too. This demonstrated an unparalleled, terrifying power!
The finger instantly approached the skies above the Divine Fire Continent!
At this mont, within the Divine Fire Continent, on the Primordial Fla Mountain,
Qing Chen’s Sacred Fla had fully manifested, releasing his Daoist Scenery Land. Boundless Sacred Fla burned fiercely, refining a structure in his Daoist Scenery Void Land.
This structure resembled a colossal temple.
It signified the final realm of the Five Elents—Casting!
In essence, Divine Fire was also called Sacred Fla, and Casting could also be terd Life Palace!
By using the human fire to forge the Life Palace, it represented the aning of life itself within which faith converged—the fundantal source of culture’s boundless vitality.
Once the Life Palace was ford, Qing Chen would achieve perfection in the Five Elents Realm and beco a being of Forbidden Power!
“Kill him!”
“He must not reach this step!”
The Dark Fire Emperor and Dark Wood Emperor cried out furiously, intent on killing Qing Chen.
But Mo Zheng desperately blocked their way, fighting as if he had abandoned his own life.
anwhile, Fire Spirit and Mu Wanqing also exerted their utmost, using treasured artifacts obtained from Li Fan to intervene significantly.
Elsewhere, Mo Tie had gone mad and tried to act, but he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach!
Having swallowed Lu Rang’s grass earlier, he now felt as if his own flesh was being devoured by sothing.
“What is this madness…”
Looking inward, he discovered a blade of green grass taking root inside his Great Emperor stomach. Its roots and stems greedily absorbed his flesh, while its leaves sliced through his organs!
“This grass… it’s eating ?!”
Mo Tie was shocked. His true form, the divine gluttonous Boar, had always been able to devour the world’s entirety—Divine tal, stars, even primal essence—to refine and beco part of himself. There was nothing he couldn’t eat!
Yet today, a blade of grass he had swallowed was eating him in return?
What sort of madness is this…
Furthermore, the excruciating and relentless devouring rendered him unable to bear the pain, causing him to roll on the ground and wail.
He began to fear that this grass might completely hollow out his life.
But at this critical mont,
The vast, dark finger finally arrived.
Instantly, on the Primordial Fla Mountain, everything fell into stillness.
The writhing Mo Tie suddenly froze, clutching his stomach with a pained expression as if turned into a stone sculpture.
The Dark Fire Emperor, Dark Wood Emperor, and Mo Zheng remained completely unmoving.
Even the many cultivators who had stood up monts earlier, their hearts ignited by the fla, beca utterly still.
At the center of the human fire, Qing Chen couldn’t move his Daoist Scenery Land; the fierce flas seed frozen solid.
This finger intended to annihilate Qing Chen!
…
Just as the fire of humanity burned on the Primordial Fla Mountain.
In the small village.
Li Fan awoke groggily, possibly drained from exerting his spirit the previous day, and so he rose rather late.
Stepping into the courtyard, Gong Ya attentively helped him wash up.
Long Zixuan, Dugu Yuqing, Wu Dade, and Su Baiqian had returned, their presence unexpectedly bolstering Li Fan’s appetite, prompting him to eat more of the porridge Gong Ya had prepared.
“Master, what is the fire of humanity?”
After breakfast, Dugu Yuqing suddenly asked, gazing at Li Fan with curiosity.
－－Though they were in dreams last night, they had still reached the Immortal Seed Realm.
Long Zixuan had planted the Martial Dao Heavenly Heart Lotus, Dugu Yuqing the Unextinguishable Fire Tree, and Wu Dade the Ancestral lting Gold Tree.
Now, they were about to enter the next realm—Divine Fire!
The Divine Fire needed those walking the forbidden path to ignite the human fire.
The human fire was the fla of faith guiding the world forward.
If Breath Soil, Pi Shui, and Sheng Mu rely required steady progress—obtaining Breath Soil, extracting vast waters, planting Immortal Seeds—then starting from the Divine Fire Realm, understanding beca crucial.
The ability to grasp the true aning of the human fire was of great importance.
Only by igniting the human fire could one use it to forge a Life Palace representing the essence of life.
Thus, they all looked to Li Fan.
Upon hearing this, Li Fan paused slightly—human fire?
When did Dugu Yuqing start pondering philosophy…
But this term wasn’t unfamiliar to him; human fire was also known as the fire of faith.
“The fire of humanity is the fire of faith—what people believe in is the fire of their era.”
“For instance, there was a ti when ritual teachings were revered; ritual teachings would then be the human fire. But when rituals collapsed, the human fire extinguished, and inevitable chaos followed.”
Li Fan explained casually.
Dugu Yuqing and the others seed to ponder deeply, saying:
“Master, what kind of faith could be eternal?”
Li Fan chuckled slightly and replied:
“There’s no such thing as eternal.”
“The only constant is that the world is always changing.”
“All Dao are rely reflections of human hearts at certain stages. Treating those Dao as eternal is like carving a boat to retrieve a sword, destined to be abandoned by the tides of ti.”
“Seeking Dao externally pales in comparison to searching within. Rather than believing in gods, believe in yourself.”
Li Fan spoke softly.
Hearing this, Dugu Yuqing and the others were suddenly awakened.
Seek not externally, but inwardly; rather than believing in gods, believe in oneself!
“Do not chase after externals; my heart is my faith… My fire of humanity is the faith to strike down all matters with a single sword!”
Dugu Yuqing murmured.
In his heart, the Divine Fire spontaneously ignited!
“With Martial Dao as the path, all laws beco void. Trusting in myself, I will find my own fire…”
Long Zixuan was also in the midst of insight.
“To save lives and heal wounds… dicine can kill, but also save. To eliminate those who should perish and save those who should be saved—that is my fire!”
Su Baiqian closed her eyes.
As for Wu Dade, he scratched his head in confusion, faith fire? His lack of education was catching up to him; these terms sounded like headaches…
…
All at once, they understood their paths!
Li Fan, anwhile, retrieved the fourth lamp from his study.
The fourth lamp was different from the previous three; the inscriptions on it seed to pertain to the Sacred Dao Calendar.
Li Fan studied it briefly before asking Gong Ya to fetch pen and ink.
Then, he started painting the second calendar!
－－The Divine Jumper had left behind five calendars: Immortal, Sacred, Divine, Chaos. Three were already torn away, and the Immortal Way Calendar had been painted. Now, Li Fan intended to explore what the others contained.
The clues on the fourth lamp were sufficient.
He made his first stroke of the brush,
And at that very mont…
…
Boom!
On the Primordial Fla Mountain, the imnse, dark finger freezing everything suddenly stopped!
A celestial veil descended from the vast Sky Vault, enveloping the land!
…
In the Land of Darkness.
“He… has intervened once again!”
The Stopper’s eyes seed to hold a faint glimr… of expectancy!
…
Good night.
