Chapter 98: Chapter 82 Warning from Empyrean Kong shi [Seeking First Subscription]_2
“Where did they go?” Lu Mingrong couldn’t hold back anymore.
Wu Yunzhou thought for a moment and said, “It is said that they went to Baiyan Trading Company…”
“Baiyan Trading Company? Liu Clan’s territory? Could it be that they are going to purchase the items required for their practice?”
Muttering to himself, Patriarch Chen Xiao clasped his fists and said, “School Head Lu, I suddenly remembered that there’s still an issue at the horse farm, so I’ll take my leave first…”
“Yes, I have matters at the academy as well, so I won’t keep you!” Lu Mingrong nodded.
As Chen Xiao left, Wu Yunzhou looked over and asked, “School Head, should we make a trip over there?”
Lu Mingrong nodded, “Nonsense, of course we should go; the previous opportunity to pay was snatched by Chen Xiao, this time we cannot let Yu Longqing snatch it away, otherwise, the advantage we finally gained will be completely lost…”
“Yes!”
Wu Yunzhou nodded.
Holy-grade Source Pool, Furnace, Horse Taming, knowledge impartation, fragments of the heavens… Each one signifies that this Zhang Xuan will inevitably surpass his peers and head towards the pinnacle; not seizing the opportunity to foster good relationships and show substantial favor now would mean we’ll have no door to knock on later…
…
“There’s no Heaven Mandate Hall in Baiyan City?”
Riding on a horse, as he looked at City Lord Yu riding alongside, disbelief filled Zhang Xuan’s eyes.
Just now, Empyrean Kong had warned him earnestly to be cautious of the Heaven Mandate Hall, and yet, it turns out Baiyan City doesn’t even have one…
No wonder he hadn’t encountered danger; it turned out to be for this reason.
Indeed, if there were one, having been here so many days, he should have heard some news of it.
Seeing his confusion, Yu Longqing explained in detail once again.
“The Heaven Mandate Hall is a sacred temple that all cultivators dream of; the Destiny Plate used for the Source Pool evaluation at the academy comes from there, which includes Fate Masters who can control all things…”
After listening for a while, Zhang Xuan finally understood.
The Heaven Mandate Hall, it actually bears some similarity to the Master Teacher Pavilion of the Master Teacher Continent and belongs to some of the most powerful forces of the Source World. Every cultivator honors controlling fate, and this thing can only be obtained here.
Following the normal methods, once one’s cultivation reached a certain realm, they could go to the Heaven Mandate Hall to seek their fate, resign themselves… If they couldn’t find one that fit them, they would then be completely cut off from becoming the strongest type of cultivator in this life.
This point is exactly like that of a master teacher.
Once the cultivation reached a certain realm, one could go to the Master Teacher Pavilion to assess for master teacher, and if one’s state of mind and the like didn’t meet the standard, they would be forever disqualified.
As for fate, it is somewhat similar to three thousand professions.
For example, being in control of the Beast Taming Fate makes taming primordial beasts effortless and skillful, which is also the reason Mo Yanxue and others were shocked by his beast taming abilities. Controlling the Master Dao fate would enable one to bring forth the Impartation of Heaven’s Will, comfortably guiding knowledge impartation.
It was for this reason that Lu Mingrong and Wu Yunzhou misunderstood Zhang Xuan as being a born Fate Master.
Having heard all this, Zhang Xuan fell into deep thought.
If that is the case… could it be that the Master Teacher Continent is actually derived from a certain fate? Otherwise, where did the so-called gathering of zhenqi, Impartation of Heaven’s Will, Eye of Insight, and similar special abilities come from?
Yu Longqing continued, “There is only one life, and it is the same with fate; if you want to practice someone else’s Life Path, you must become their disciple, resign yourself, and willingly submit to being controlled, otherwise, the other party can take your life with just a thought…”
“Only one life?”
Zhang Xuan’s pupils constricted.
He now understood why the Empyrean Realm saw that giant hand descending from the sky; perhaps, it was precisely because it had split the “Master Dao” fate that it met its destruction.
And his own newly created world, belonging to the path of emotion, might also have its corresponding Heavenly Mandator, which is what caused him palpitations, unable to control his strength, consequently getting severely injured, and forcing him to this world.
Fortunately, after arriving, he had hidden his cultivation and strength, otherwise, he would certainly have been detected by the other party and wouldn’t even know how he had died.
Of course, these were just his speculations; the current City Lord knew not much clearer, and he could only rely on his strength breakthrough to then look for the origin.
Suppressing all these thoughts, Zhang Xuan once again looked puzzled, “Since the Heaven Mandate Hall is coveted by everyone and offers a chance to control destiny, why don’t you try it?”
“Of course I have gone and even accepted a Heavenly Mandate Baptism once… Unfortunately, I do not possess the talent to cultivate fate, so I can only be content with being a minor city lord here; otherwise, with such a vast world, where could I not roam freely?”
Yu Longqing shook his head with a wry smile, full of loss in his eyes.
“Heavenly Mandate Baptism? What’s that?” Zhang Xuan wondered.
Yu Longqing fell into a reminiscent state, “It’s a special method used by the Heaven Mandate Hall to invoke the Heavenly Mandate Force Tide. Being in it feels like being caught in the torrent of destiny, with countless Heavenly Mandate Forces raining down, surging crazily towards you, and just like the many choices and opportunities in life, it presents numerous paths for you to make decisions; those who are not firm in mind can easily get lost, ultimately wasting their talent and life. But for those who are determined and lucky enough to find a force of fate that matches them and merge it into themselves, it can transform the level of their life, allowing them to step into heaven in one move and become a true Fate Master…”
“But for me… my luck wasn’t very good; faced with the Heavenly Mandate Vital Energy Tide, I lost my way before long and ended up with nothing…”
Yu Longqing’s face was filled with regret.
“Heavenly Mandate Force Tide? Countless Heavenly Mandate Forces?”
Zhang Xuan didn’t know much about Fate Masters and wasn’t very interested, but these two things were too enticing.
If he could experience this thing, would he be able to loosely absorb tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Mandate Forces, and no longer have to worry about running out?
