Chapter 147 Western Lands! (Request to be published)
A line of words slowly faded before Li Qingshan’s eyes. He stared at the dissipating words, finally coming back to his senses.
In his sea of consciousness, a Fate Rule emerged, exuding a mysterious aura. It approached the Gate of Fate and with a boom, opened the gate, floating within.
Li Qingshan instantly comprehended this Fate Rule.
The Gift of Fate!
In a person’s long life, there are countless moments—brilliant, low, unlucky, mundane…
These different moments represented different encounters. Fate could not treat all living beings equally. There will always be some people who will receive the Gift of Fate and obtain abilities that surpass others.
Under the Gift of Fate, it would strengthen one’s luck, increase one’s comprehension, and increase one’s power…
A comprehensive enhancement, very powerful.
Normally, one would be extremely lucky to receive the Gift of Fate once in their lifetime. However, Li Qingshan mastered this Rule.
Now, he was the one who could bestow the Gift of Fate upon others.
“Indeed, Fate truly deserves to be the foremost of the 3,000 Great Paths. This is really impressive. Controlling the Gift of Fate will make my cultivation speed soar, achieving in a day what would take others years, reviving the prowess of a million years ago,” Li Qingshan said joyfully.
But after a brief moment of joy, Li Qingshan calmed down and looked at the book in his hand, opening the first page.
Heavenly Maiden of the Fox Race!
The first page bore these four large characters.
It introduced the name of this Nine-Tailed Fox.
“Heavenly Maiden, what an extraordinary title, but she deserves it. After all, throughout history, very few have comprehended the Path of Fate,” Li Qingshan said.
Li Qingshan read seriously. Although he had already scanned the contents with his divine soul, he still preferred to read the book himself; it was a different feeling.
Holding the paper book, turning page by page, smelling the ink, and looking at the well-arranged characters, Li Qingshan felt very comfortable.
The Nine-Tailed Heavenly Maiden was born during the transitional phase between the old and new Celestial Courts. At that time, chaotic wars had just ended, and the major Emperors of the Celestial Court were at their peak, suppressing the world, making all clans submit, and ushering in a period of peace.
The Nine-Tailed Heavenly Maiden rose during this peaceful era. She was born with inherited memories and became a Crimson Immortal at less than five hundred years old, becoming the support of the Fox Race.
The Fox Race saw her as their hope, and the Monster Clan regarded her as their future. But her ambitions lay elsewhere. At the age of five hundred and five, she broke through to Emperor, causing a stir in the Immortal Plane. The Zhenwu Emperor personally received her and presented her with a gift. The Heavenly Maiden and Zhenwu Emperor conversed for three days, after which she began her solitary wanderings across the heavens.
The book said that after the Heavenly Maiden broke through to the Emperor, she traveled widely, becoming increasingly silent. She used to laugh a lot and was very lively, but later, her smile vanished.
There wasn’t much recorded about the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Maiden because she rarely lived within the Fox Race, especially after becoming an Emperor. She visited only a few times to settle matters for the Fox Race.
The final record stated that the Heavenly Maiden went to the Western Lands and was never heard from again.
“The Western Lands, that was once the domain of Buddhist sects. Before the Buddha Realm was established, the Western Lands were the Sanctuary of Buddhist sects, with countless temples built there. The Nine-Tailed Heavenly Maiden went to the Western Lands and then disappeared. Should I go to the Buddha Realm to investigate?” Li Qingshan frowned, putting down the book, feeling puzzled.
“Let nature take its course. I’ll first take care of my affairs and then seek the answers behind these ancient stories,” Li Qingshan pondered, having made up his mind.
He looked around at the time from a million years ago and asked the Big Clock and Space Girl, “Do you still want to observe a bit more?”
The Big Clock shook its head and said, “No, it’s meaningless.”
“Indeed, it is meaningless,” Space Girl agreed, retreating into Li Qingshan’s consciousness to play with the 3,000 Great Paths, feeling very bored.
“Alright, back to reality,” Li Qingshan said, spreading his hand. Time flowed like water through his fingers and on the Big Clock, flowing gently.
Time began to reverse, flowing back from a million years ago to the present.
The books that had been restored in the room became damaged once again as time returned to its normal course. Li Qingshan pushed open the door and walked out without lingering.
Among the various Nine-Tailed Foxes of the Fox Race, only the Heavenly Maiden interested Li Qingshan. No matter how powerful the other Nine-Tailed Foxes were, he had no interest in them.
He wasn’t interested in things or people that didn’t help him comprehend the Rules or improve himself.
Leaving the side hall, Li Qingshan didn’t linger and directly exited the secret technique space, descending to the Fox Race territory.
With a sweep of his divine sense, he saw the little fox learning how to control her bloodline with Lady Hu.
Watching from several mountains away, he didn’t disturb them. His Emperor’s primordial spirit went unnoticed. Seeing that the little fox was safe, Li Qingshan felt reassured. He left a mark on her. If she faced a life-and-death crisis, he would know and could tear through space to arrive in an instant.
“Little fox, study well. I’m leaving now,” Li Qingshan transmitted to the little fox, then stepped out of the Monster Realm.
The little fox, who was studying, suddenly felt downcast.
Lady Hu asked concernedly, “What’s wrong, little girl?”
“He left.” The little fox sighed in boredom.
“Immortal Emperor Li is a busy person. Let’s focus on our transformation, becoming a peerless beauty, and give him a surprise in the future,” Lady Hu said with a smile.
