Chapter 4059: Passing Down The Method

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Lu Yin spent nearly half a month in the Cosmic Sea before leaving again.

He met with many old friends, which brought back memories.

Invincible strength could not make up for the feeling of home. Earth, Zenyu Star, and Leons Armada were all Lu Yins home, as was the Lu family.

Lu Yin arrived in the Perennial World and stared at the colossal Mother Tree. Another step took him to the Lu Sanctum.

The young lord has returned! The young lord has returned! the butler, Lu San, shouted.

The Lu family immediately stirred, and a great number of the familys younger members emerged to pay their respects.

Lu Yin might not be the familys patriarch, but his authority surpassed everyone elses, including Lu Yuans.

The familys founder swaggered out. Little Seven is back!

Lu Qi quickly rushed out and was grabbed by Lu Yin. Father, slow down.

Hahaha! Come on, lets go home! With a wave of his hand, Lu Yuan declared a family celebration.

It felt as if the entire Perennial World grew brighter.

Lu Yin chatted with Lu Yuan and Lu Qi for a long time. The fat old woman made a point to prepare the dishes Lu Yin had enjoyed in the past.

Strictly speaking, they had been Lu Xiaoxuans favorites, but in the hearts of the Lu family, Lu Yin and Lu Xiaoxuan were one and the same.

This was not his first time returning to the family, but each visit filled them with delight.

It did not take long for Lu Buzheng to arrive, and he brought Kui Luo with him. Both men had broken through to the Progenitor realm.

More of Lu Yins acquaintances from the Perennial World arrived to visit. It took several days for things to calm down again.

I told you not to make a fuss! The Lu Sanctums threshold is about to be worn through, Lu Yuan scolded.

Lu Qi felt wronged. He had not announced anything. Little Sevens return had caused their old ancestors laughter to echo across the stars.

At that moment, the sky dimmed.

The colossal Divine Eagle descended from overhead.

The ground trembled. The Python Ancestor lifted his head to stare at Lu Yin.

Lu Yuan fell silent. The two beasts were there for the Origin Progenitor. He had left with Boundless, but while both the battleship and Lu Yin had returned, the Origin Progenitor had not.

Lu Yins face fell. Im sorry. I couldnt bring the Origin Progenitor back.

The Divine Eagle let out a resounding cry.

The Python Ancestors head thudded to the ground as it blankly stared off into space.

Lu Yuan frowned. What are you two fools worrying about? Dont you know who Master is? He founded the Heavens Sect! Hes more talented than anyone! Hell be fine.

The Python Ancestor shot a glare at Lu Yuan before turning to leave.

The Divine Eagle let out a single screech before also departing.

Lu Yuan snorted. Those two idiots. Little Seven, just ignore them.

Lu Yin sighed. How was the Origin Progenitor really doing? He needed to visit the Consciousness Megaverse and search for the man. After all, his opponent was the High Seraph.

Days later, Lu Yin was standing quietly in the Lu Sanctums cemetery.

Rain fell around him, softly pattering on the ground.

The rain stretched out like a curtain, hiding the rest of the universe behind a veil.

It was easy for cultivators to alter the weather, but the stronger one became, the less likely it was that they would do so. Instead, they typically chose to follow nature.

Lu Yin was staring at a tombstone. The name on it was Lu Chu.

Im sorry. I couldnt remember your name back then.

Little Master, youre here again? Did that last fall hurt you?

Little Master, th- this is too much food! This old servant truly cannot eat another bite.

Little Master, slow down! Be careful!

When Lu Yin had disguised himself as Hao Yu to enter Virtue Archives, he had watched an old man who had called him little master die in his arms. He had remembered an old man who had always chased after him with food and who had cushioned his falls so that he would not receive the slightest injury.

But at that time, Lu Yin had not been able to recall the old mans name. For that reason, he had preserved the body so that he could bury it after remembering.

When the Lu Sanctum returned, Lu Yin had remembered. During a previous visit, he had buried the man in the cemetery. The old mans name had been Lu Chu, and he had been an old retainer of the Lu family.

Throughout Lu Yins journey, how many sacrificed themselves for him? How many had died because of him?

He could no longer count.

Those people had never considered the possibility that Lu Yin would one day ensure the continuation of human civilization. They had simply wanted to protect him because of who he was.

It rained for five days, and Lu Yin stood before the grave for five days.

On the sixth day, sunlight broke through the clouds, and a seven-colored rainbow stretched across the horizon, mirroring the more distant Bifrost. It was beautiful.

Lu Qi approached from behind. Dont take it to heart. They helped you, and our Lu family helped them too.

Lu Chu was once homeless, and our Lu family gave him resources and a home. To him, you were his child.

Lu Yin softly replied, All worldly strife springs from pursuing benefits. The only thing that can override such desires is life itself.

The value of life is greater than the universe.

Lu Qi sighed. Who actually believes that? People will kill over scraps of gain.

The desire to profit cant be erased. Wherever there are people, there will also be competition. However, I can raise the value placed on life without limit.

Lu Qi grew puzzled. What does that mean?

Lu Yin looked up at the stars, his gaze piercing the sky to look at the boundary and the Aevum Inch beyond it. Im going to shift our internal conflicts towards external threats. We already have an easy target.

The Nest civilization?

It might be that the bugs arrival wasnt entirely bad for us.

If the Tianyuan had been targeted by the Death Megaverse or Obscura, he would not say such a thing.

The Nest civilization was powerful, but not to the point of being able to crush humanity underfoot. Once Greater Sancti Green Lotus and Blood Tower returned, it might be impossible for even the Immortal Lord to emerge victorious. If the Immortal Lord had not been deterred by the existence of the Heavenly Karmic Macrocosm, they would have already attacked. Their restraint was born of their uncertainty regarding Green Lotus.

This indicated that, at best, the Nest civilization and humanity were evenly matched.

Such a threat could dissolve a great deal of internal strife.

Little Seven, your father has a lingering regret, though I dont know if you can help with it, Lu Qi awkwardly mentioned.

Lu Yin blinked. What regret?

Lu Qi hesitated. He opened his mouth several times, and after glancing behind himself, he quietly whispered, I want to be a grandfather.

Lu Yin was rendered speechless, so he just left.

After Lu Yin left, Lu Yuan arrived, directing a glare at Lu Qi. Why did you whisper? Youre not a thief.

Lu Qi sighed. I have no right to ask Little Seven for anyting. Ive barely helped him at all, and yet Ive caused him so much suffering. I have no confidence as a father.

Useless.

Then why dont you go, Ancestor?

Youve already said it, so whats the point in repeating things?

I mean you personally? Give us a little ancestor.

With the little time that remained before he taught the new cultivation method, Lu Yin left the Perennial World and returned to the Origin Universe, where he went to find Boundless.

After returning from the Spirit Nidus, the battleship had returned to being the Astral Combat Academy.

The Astral Combat Academy consisted of ten campuses. Lu Yins alma mater, Astral-10, was regarded as the premier campus, though it still had its old name.

Boundless had spent nearly a century away from the Tianyuan. After returning, new students from all the other campuses had flocked to Astral-10 to see the famous vessel.

Astral-10 was bustling. The Rainmaster, the Sandmaster, as well as many new instructors, were all busy teaching.

Big Pao, Little Pao, and others were also present.

Lu Yin stepped onto Boundless and arrived in the Rain Observatory. The battleship felt different once more.

After the journey to the Spirit Nidus, Boundless had ceased to simply be the site for the Astral Combat Academy to store humanitys legacy, or even a relic of a bygone era. It had become the path by which the Tianyuan could reach other megaverses.

It was a fallback for countless ordinary cultivators.

The headmaster, Shao Chen, who frequently sat atop a great tree in the Rain Observatory, appeared when he noticed Lu Yins arrival.

I heard that you enjoyed quite a lively drinking session in the Cosmic Sea, Lord Lu.

Lu Yin chuckled. Yeah, meeting with old friends.

The headmaster nodded. Nostalgic?

Reuniting.

I hope that, many years from now, humanity will still see people reunite with old friends.

Lu Yin looked over at the headmaster. Senior, you walk an unprecedented path of cultivating the mortal world. How would you judge my current mental state?

The headmaster studied him. Your state of mind I cant see through it.

Why not?

Back when I stepped onto the Stargazing Deck, I saw the past and myriad phenomena before going mad. Only sudden enlightenment allowed me to take the step from bound to unbound. Your cultivation realm differs from others. You can be called ordinary, or not. You are beyond my comprehension, and yet you are contained within it.

Lu Yin stared at the man in surprise, and the headmaster just smiled. It sounds like nonsense, doesnt it?

Lu Yin did not deny it.

How should I put it? Most people advance from one to ten, and each realm has a matching mindset. However, when you were at one, you mightve had the mindset of someone at five. When you reached five, your mindset might have fallen back to one. Now, you could be at nine, and yet your mindset could be only at two or already at ten.

I cant comprehend how you do this. It might be that youve lived two lives: one carefree, and one steeped in intrigue.

Its also possible that what you care for allows you to perceive certain complexities.

Or even, the man continued, as he stared at Lu Yin, That such mental states dont originate from you alone, but from what stands behind you.

What stands behind me? Lu Yin was puzzled.

The headmaster looked up. This vast cosmos.

In the Heavens Sect, light shone out across billions of kilometers, illuminating the universe.

Countless cultivators looked up, fervent reverence on their faces as they stared at Lu Yin standing at the top of the Stairway to Heaven in front of the Origin Progenitors statue.

This was the day that Lu Yin would share the Nirvana Tree Path. A spectral green tree rose up from the ground, towering high above the stars, its branches stretching out endlessly. The sight of the tree incited the same aching desire in the Tianyuans cultivators that the people of the Nine Odysseys Megaverse had felt.

They yearned to step onto this new path. This was a cultivation path that could support an entire civilization.

As countless green motes rained down, Lu Yuan and countless others raised their hands. They watched as the lights fell onto their hands and then passed through them. Each person was left shaken.

It felt no different from when the Origin Progenitor had first developed the method of cultivating with stellular energy.

This was a blessing for their entire civilization.

The Three Realms and Six Daos had each managed to develop their own cultivation method, and they had taken pride in doing so.

The God of Death had developed death energy.

Wu Tian had focused on martial arts.

Destiny had pursued divination.

The Lu family had grown innate gifts, and the others had also stepped onto their own unique paths.

Stellular energy served as the foundation of all that they had created. While they liked to believe that they had surpassed the original method, they had only surpassed stellular energys destructive power, not the cultivation method itself.

None of them had been able to propagate their unique cultivation methods across an entire civilization. Only the Origin Progenitor had managed to achieve that.

There was a qualitative difference.

Even if the Three Realms and Six Daos no longer cultivated with stellular energy, none of them would dare to deny its greatness; it served as the bedrock of all energies.

The Nirvana Tree Path differed from cultivating with stellular energy and could not serve as the foundation of everything. However, it served as a path of return for all powers.

At this moment, the Three Realms and Six Daos all saw Lu Yin in the same light that they had once seen the Origin Progenitor.
