“Masters.” Yu Feng was extremely excited, not expecting such methods to exist.

The constant emergence of new methods in the Kyushu layer gave Yu Feng a new perspective.

“Don’t call me master, I have never accepted a disciple with such poor talent.” Sect Master Huang Chengdan of the Spirit Medicine Sect wore a stern face, refusing to acknowledge Yu Feng.

The truth is, Yu Feng’s innate talent is indeed low, he could only learn from many schools of teachings, using them skillfully, yet all his capabilities only remained at the stage of “knowing,” not “mastering”.

“Ha, Old Huang, when Jiang, the Human Emperor, said we could come to the Ancient World, you were the first to sign up,” the Sect Master of the Beast Controlling Sect teased.

“I just wanted to see the new world, it has nothing to do with this little fellow.” It took Huang Chengdan quite some time to come up with this reply.

“Thank you, Master, for imparting teachings and clearing my doubts.” Yu Feng immediately paid his respects by bowing three times.

“Knowledge is meant to be shared, no need for such formalities.” A chorus of laughter echoed among the group of Body Integration Realm cultivators.

“Haha, I am now the only Transcendence Tribulation Stage cultivator in this world.” Bai Hongtu jumped over from the other side of the passage, announcing his dominion, making even Jiang Li feel an urge to push him back.

Yu Yin followed him at a leisurely pace: “Not anymore.”

“Sect Master Bai, Empress.” The group of Body Integration Realm cultivators immediately bowed in respect, after all, these two were Transcendence Tribulation Stage cultivators.

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin returned the salute.

Yu Feng introduced each of the newcomers to Wu Lian, who was finding it hard to keep up.

There are so many cultivators at the Body Integration Realm, including one at the Transcendence Tribulation Stage. The world of Kyushu is truly terrifying.

“Why, who are you?” Yu Feng did not recognize Yu Yin.

“This is my master, Yu Yin, a Transcendence Tribulation Stage cultivator.” Yu Yin was about to introduce herself when the Ruyi gourd preemptively declared.

“This little fellow looks as dumbfounded as when he uses a communication talisman.” Bai Hongtu burst into laughter, “This is our first meeting. Let me give you a few talismans as a welcome gift.”

“With this talisman, no one below the Transcendence Tribulation Stage will be able to harm you. Even if a Transcendence Tribulation Stage cultivator wants to harm you, they will find it quite challenging.”

This was a significant gift, and Yu Feng immediately thanked them.

“I appreciate it.” A talisman that can pose a challenge to even a Transcendence Tribulation Stage cultivator is not something that Bai Hongtu could craft with ease. Jiang Li knew that Bai Hongtu gave such a valuable welcoming gift because he was worried that Yu Feng might encounter a disaster after losing the fragments of the ladder to immortality.

With this talisman as a guarantee, Yu Feng would be safe from any danger.

“Why mention these things? We’re practically family.” Bai Hongtu waved his hand, and then displayed significant interest in the Ancient World. “I’ve always wanted to visit this place and now I finally have the chance.”

Yu Yin was also eager to experience other worlds, especially since she heard that this world was even more dark and chaotic than her Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty.

The three of them strolled in the sky above the mainland, observing this world with their Divine Sense.

“On this note, the Heavenly Demons from outside of this world have never visited this place?” At first, Bai Hongtu assumed the darkness of this world was the work of the Heavenly Demons from outside of this world. Now, it seems that this world has always been this way.

Yu Yin recognized the problem, “The Heavenly Demons have likely been here before. Sensing that this world would self-destruct, they did not interfere any further.”

Jiang Li sighed, “Yu Yin is right. The Heavenly Demons couldn’t have overlooked this world. The only reason they didn’t act is that they didn’t need to.”

“The people of this world are always trying to snatch something from others, be it spiritual energy, cultivation techniques, treasures etc. Yet they are unwilling to contribute.”

“As time goes by, this world will only grow weaker.”

“Cultivators practice the way of the demons, they kill at will, slaughter each other, and the mortals are always left out. Facing the cultivators, they can only wait for their death.”

“The number of cultivators is decreasing, and the number of mortals is also decreasing. When both numbers reduce to a certain extent, they won’t be able to generate consciousness that the Heavenly Demons fear. Thus the Heavenly Demons can act and erase this world.”

“How could this be? Is human nature inherently evil?” This reminded Bai Hongtu of a long-time debate in Kyushu.

The debate between human nature being intrinsically good or evil.

“I have a different perspective.” Dong Zhongren, the Hierarch of Confucianism, appeared. He and Bai Hongtu had been at odds for a long time.

“What, do you want to argue that human nature is inherently good?”

“Not exactly. We cannot be so narrow-minded.” Dong Zhongren directly confronted Bai Hongtu, anyhow, with the Great Confucian Word Post in his hand, he was not afraid of Bai Hongtu.

“Most people are born without distinctions between good and evil. Their surroundings and upbringing determine their character.”

“Only a very small segment of the population is born with an explicit division of good and evil in their nature. They embody a clear distinction between kindness and evil, without any wavering.” As he said this, Dong Zhongren glanced at Jiang Li.

He believed Jiang Li belonged to this very small category of people.

“This viewpoint is indeed unique.” To Bai Hongtu, the man didn’t matter if the matter was good. He found this viewpoint of Dong Zhongren intriguing.

Bai Hongtu noticed, Dong Zhongren was not the only one to arrive, there was a massive crowd of Confucians along with him.

“What brings you all here? To teach them about manners and discipline?”

“That’s a secondary goal. When food repositories are full, people understand etiquette. When clothed and fed properly, people differentiate between honor and disgrace. We want to ensure they are well-fed first.”

“Only when one’s basic needs are met, one can consider other aspects.” Dong Zhongren insisted that only when the material aspects of life are fulfilled can one demand spiritual fulfillment.

The ordinary people of the Ancient World have faced famines for many years, and instances of cannibalism were not uncommon. How could a person born into this environment be kind-hearted?

Kind-hearted people simply cannot survive in such conditions.

What Dong Zhongren intended to do was to create an environment conducive for good people to survive – to solve the issue of starvation. Not only to ensure they were well-fed but also that they ate well.

Among the disciples that Dong Zhongren brought along, while not all of them were proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, they were well-versed in organic farming and cultivating grain.

They were here not merely to teach the ordinary people how to cultivate or how to control their environment but also to teach them that after achieving cultivation, they must not forget their roots and ought to use their magic to bless their hometown.

Surely, Confucians can’t stay here forever.

The Confucian, who walks the King Change, was also among the crowd. Dong Zhongren believed that while King Change’s theory was well-researched and welcomed in Kyushu, he overlooked the basics of food, clothing, and transportation.

After all, in Kyushu, everyone took these aspects for granted.

Dong Zhongren wanted King Change to recognize his weaknesses through practice in the Ancient World.

“I didn’t expect you to have such a concept.” Bai Hongtu was as if meeting Dong Zhongren for the first time.

“I’ve always held this viewpoint.”

“Why are there so many Confucians here but only one from the Buddhist sect?” Bai Hongtu was curious as he saw that only one person from the Buddhist sect posed, standing alone – the barefooted, white-robed, silent, olfactory Bodhisattva who was practicing the Heavenly Vision.

“I did not allow many Buddhists to come.” Jiang Li shook his head. Dong Zhongren was only able to come here with Jiang Li’s approval.

“I asked Wu Zhi what the Buddhists could do if they came here? He mentioned they could urge people to do good, and to let go of their disputes. However, he did not mention anything about food and housing.”

“Wu Zhi’s statement is idealistic but not practical. Thus, I only allowed them to send a small team to carry on their legacy and see if the people of this world can accept Buddhism.”

“The other sects are the same, they are not only here to watch over Yu Feng, but also to spread their own techniques everywhere as a fortune, waiting for the destined ones.”
