ther text you'd like me to translate!Ginger Wang's stepmother was named Song Ruyi, who lived alone in town. She single-handedly supported her daughter and struggled to keep a failing herb shop afloat....The Era of the Saints, as the beginning of the late ancient period, has left a profound and lasting impact on the present world.

So-called "unified thinking" doesn't mean that everyone's thoughts should be the same. The differences between people are what make human life vibrant.

The sages sought to establish a comprehensive academic system capable of encompassing the ideas of all schools of thought, eliminating internal conflicts and unifying them. Their aim was to provide a complete explanation for all issues in the universe through this unified framework, ultimately leading to a deeper understanding of existence.

Of course, it failed in the end.

The era of sages has become history, a distant memory.

Jiang Wang vaguely felt that the era of All Saints was a very worthwhile period to study.

After all, it is the first act of recent times, a new chapter for mankind after the reign of emperors.

It's a pity that it has been too long since then, so I can only piece together fragmented memories.

>The ancient emperors and the Shang ancients all died in great wars, injured their essence. However, the middle emperors' cause of death was different.

“After slaying the Dragon Emperor's nine sons and chasing the Dragon Emperor into the East China Sea, the human race unified the world, becoming the only voice in this realm and reaching the peak of an era. However, due to the limitations of the times, there was nowhere further to advance. As the sovereign ruler of the world, bearing the title of the Human Emperor, if he could not lead the human race forward, he would instead consume the human race's luck.”

"The great Master Lieshan consulted Heaven and Earth, and received the hexagram "Grouped Dragons Without a Head, Great Auspiciousness for the World."

“So, he unraveled himself.”

“The death of the True Monarch benefits heaven greatly, while the death of the Human Emperor nourishes the human race. Therefore, when the ancient times opened, the celestial prodigies shone upon the world.”

“One great era has thus come to an end, with the legends of the ancients and the Emperor of Burning Mountains becoming things of the past.”

Kou Xuejiao said slowly: "After the death of the ancient emperor, the human race lost a common leader, but they still had to move forward. In the distant past, sages tried to explore a more peak path. The era of Hundred Schools of Thought contending for supremacy thus began."

"It was a dazzling era, the radiance of wisdom illuminating the heavens. It seamlessly bridged the ancient world and paved the way for endless possibilities for future generations."

“The Emperor Li Shan's last wish was 'to make each generation of the human race surpass the previous one, and for every generation to usher in a new era.'

"

“The entire ancient period can be said to be a great exploration based on the ideal of the Son of Heaven. For example, the era of sages, the mythical era, and the era of immortals...”

After the new era of Daoism, the national system in some aspects can be considered as a reflection of the times of the Three Sages.

"The unification of thought, gives birth to a saint."

"The unification of matter, gives birth to an emperor!"

The reason why a king can also be called 'the Saint' and 'the Sacred Son of Heaven' is because of this. They can be considered two sides of the same coin.

It's no wonder Kou Xuejiao said that Dacheng Zhisheng is similar to the Six Harmonies Heavenly Emperor.

These are indeed two similar, even sometimes overlapping paths. They diverge yet converge, ultimately pointing towards the strongest outcome.

The Age of Sages, the Mythical Age, and the Immortal Age—one after another, great attempts and failures marked these eras, culminating in the Daoli New Era. This extraordinary complex yet vibrant new age came to be.

But tracing back to the source, it is still Emperor Lieshan's gift to the human race.

History is magnificent!

The surging tide of misfortune, as if in awe of this history's grandeur, is now unusually calm.

"So, these..." Zhu Wei asked, "What's the connection to calamity"

Kou Xuejiao said: "The ultimate ideal of the Zhusheng era is to achieve great perfection and become a saint, reaching a realm of greatness that is invincible even beyond transcendence."

They failed.

But it was almost a success.

"At the moment closest to success, the worldly expansion occurred, simultaneously launching wars against the demon race, monster race, sea race, and Asura. The myriad saints quelled the calamity waters, almost cleansing this ocean of evil!"

Jiang Wang was deeply moved.

The grand plan of the Holy Era was to eliminate all threats to humanity.

And is close to success!

What does it mean to nearly cleanse the sea of sins

Having witnessed the malevolent Bodhi ancestor and personally seen the death of Ho Shi, Grandmaster Jiang could fully imagine the difficulty.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

But as early as the Age of Saints, those great saints had almost accomplished this unimaginable feat.

"Their method, is it related to lotus seeds" Jiang Wang asked.

Kou Xuejiao nodded: "According to the legend passed down from the era of the Holy Ones, 'to nourish the world with calamity is like a lotus flower producing lotus seeds.' When the Holy Ones were at their strongest, they collectively descended upon the calamity and opened a dojo in the sea of sin. They debated for ten years. During this time, the Holy Ones used their own power to transform those bubble worlds, educating the beings within them, turning them into true worlds that embodied the ideas of the Holy Ones, known as 'evil lotus produces seeds, emerging from the mud without being stained.' Then, relying on these lotus seed worlds, they continuously absorbed karma and purified the calamity."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“At that time, the great scene of the sea of suffering was truly like lotus seeds, and the clear water was like emerald lotuses. As it is said, ‘Bubble shadows become real lotus fruits, and there are millions upon millions on the sea.’

"Back then, the clear waters we could see stretched far beyond today's thousands of miles. They were endless, and disaster seemed to be gathering within them like a vast inland sea!"

That is indeed a sight to behold.

But appearing in such a place as the sea of suffering, it gave Jiang Wang a sense of sorrowful illusion - the more one pierces through reality, the harder it is to be satisfied. Because most happiness is illusory.

Jiang Wang murmured, "But disaster water can never be thoroughly cleansed, because karma is always being born."

"That's the truth. But even the saints believed they could be eternal," Kou Xuejiao said, a hint of regret in her voice. "So after the saints transformed into their essence, those emerald lotus seeds, one by one, turned black. This is how the Lotus World is today. There are countless decaying and desolate ones that have become death traps. In the past, many lotus fruits became desperate situations. Since ancient times, they have buried countless people. Because I am somewhat familiar with disasters, I dare to venture into this place in search of lotus seeds."

ZHong Xuan Zun had been listening silently until now, and only then did he say, "Has Daoist Kou found the lotus world that contains the Qiongqi"

Please note that I only translated the content within the and kept the HTML tags as they were. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"There is nothing here." Kou Xuejiao held the Three Thousand Red Dust Sword, radiating a chilling aura: "Blood River Sect's history does indeed mention Qiongqi, and it exists in several Lotus Seed worlds. But over so many years, many worlds have changed. I'm not sure if it still exists, nor how many days we would need to search... We might have to go further."

“If it’s convenient, Master Kou could give me the information about the corresponding lotus world.” Chongxuan bowed and said, “I will walk a little farther myself.”

"That won't do! I said I would bring you to find the Qiongqi, so I must bring you to find it." Kou Xuejiao said: "Giving up halfway through is not how the Blood River Sect welcomes guests"

"Why don't we go together We're both going to be tested in the Calamity Trial anyway. I haven't got any targets for now, and it would be good to help you find the Qilin."

He hadn't even had a chance to discuss the reward with the esteemed Champion Hou! Kou Xuejiao had already refused, saying, "It might not be suitable. The Lotus World is generally well-hidden and correspondingly dangerous..."

"Dou Mo has always loved danger!"

Dou Zhao wasn't interested at first. The team was already this large, what difference would two more make It wasn't like they were going to form an army formation. Along the way, even the evil creatures wouldn't be enough for him to kill on his own! Helping Chong Xuan Zun with work was out of the question. But when Kou Xuejiao mentioned danger, he perked up — "If Chong Xuan Zun goes, how could I not go!"

Kǒu Xuějiāo was speechless for a moment.

Are all young people nowadays this arrogant

Do these young people know what a dangerous place this is

Zhen Xuan smiled ambiguously: "With so many people gathered here, wouldn't the target be too big After all, this place is a source of calamity. It's not optimistic to attract calamity beasts of the衍道 level."

"That's exactly what I mean," Kou Xuejiao said solemnly. "The waves under the scourge of disaster are far more terrifying than you imagine. Master Jiang has experienced it, but he only saw a sliver of the iceberg... When you yourself kill the calamity monsters, you should also pay attention to your movements. Just now, Dou Zhenjun traveled all the way here with a golden rainbow, splitting the sea, and might have already alarmed some existences."

"Then I'll see you later." Jiang Wang didn't waste any time, waved his hand casually, and turned to leave.

Bodhi's evil ancestor has already been sealed back. According to Master Wu and his disciples, it won't appear again unless there is a karmic tribulation. And with the current group's strength, as long as they don't encounter a Tao-level evil view, they can basically sweep away all disasters.

But the appearance of wicked views of the Deryu level is not regular—in fact, the greatest danger of this calamity lies in this. Even the most experienced Wicked View hunting squads, once they encounter a Wicked View far superior in rank, are completely incapable of resisting.

Even these prodigies, if they truly encountered a Derangement-level malevolent perception...they could only say whether they could find a way to escape. After all, malevolent perceptions are devoid of intelligence and awareness; perhaps they could be deceived

The two teams split up, one to the left and the other to the right.

Dou Zhao frowned slightly: "The two of them seem to have some issues and don't want to be with us."

One really shouldn't underestimate this fellow!

Though he acts domineeringly, his mind is still sharp.

“Could it be that he just doesn’t want to work with you” Jiang Wang analyzed seriously. “As for Kou Xuejiao, I don’t know. But I’ve fought alongside Champion Hou countless times, and we always stood shoulder-to-shoulder at the Zi極 Palace watchtower, perfectly symmetrical. There's no reason he wouldn't want to operate with me.”

Dou Zhao spread his hands, appearing very magnanimous and said: "Alright, I'll take all the blame! As cultivators, we are responsible for everything!"

But at the same time, a voice came over: "Jiang, you just used me as a bet, and I haven't settled with you yet. You don't want the fact that you secretly enhanced my evil perception to be known by Ning Shuangrong and the others, do you"

“Five five.” Master Jiang gritted his teeth and split in half.

Dou Zhao burst into laughter, his martial robe billowing in the wind. "Follow me everyone! What's a mere Chongxuan compared to Kou Xuejiao We'll pluck a few of those lotus seeds from that Lotus World ourselves!"

All the sages once nurtured the true world with calamities, truly supernatural powers that turned misfortune into blessings.

At that time, the lotus seed world was, without exaggeration, the very essence of all the calamity.

After the truth, Jiang Wang saw more and more the importance of "fame." Fame is sometimes an explanation, sometimes a definition—a definition of "truth."

For example, taking "Huoshui" as an example, Huoshui, Niehai, Wugen, and Elian are four names that represent four kinds of "truth".

There is no right or wrong, only perspectives.

Therefore, names and instruments are the establishment of rules. National systems are thus applications of rules!

Every time a bit of ignorance is swept away, the cultivator advances a little further. The true joy of wandering in the world lies right here.

With Xuejiao's reminder from the Blood River Sect, the following people led by Jiang Wang became much more cautious in their actions. Especially Dou Zhao, no longer blazing bright but silently felling trees.

>

This ragtag team, now had a goal beyond cultivation—to seek out the Lotus World as well.

It's best to find Qiongqi in advance, plunder its essence blood, and then let Dou someone ask for a hefty sum from Chongxuan. We can then share the spoils.

At this time, it was Ji Li's turn to shine, or rather, the credit went to her cat.

She simply described to the plump cat some information about the Lianzi world recorded in the Muguo Academy—how the Lianzi world existed, what it generally looked like, and what was special about it.

The white cat seemed to hear, but also not, nestled in Qi's arms motionless.

>

Jiang Wang mentally classified this cat as being just as stupid as Gray.

After half a quarter of an hour, it suddenly leaped out of Ji Li's arms, charging across the waves. Its long, beautiful white fur flew like feathers in the air.

"Follow it, and it will lead you to the world of lotus seeds!" Ji Li only said this before dashing off.

Naturally, everyone followed suit.

Zuo Qingru, after all, was meticulous. While she darted away quickly, she still pointed from afar and said, "Imperial decree, forbid any harm!"

A ray of pure light fell upon the white fox, transforming into a decree that caused no harm to anything.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Suddenly, the white cat suspended in mid-air, calling out with a voice that was incredibly light and soft.

“It’s right here in this water,” Ji Li said. “There has to be a Lotus Seed World here.”

Dou Zhao arrived with lightning speed, a fleeting golden glint in his eyes.

"Found it!"

Then he surrendered and fell, taking a step into the water. Without any display of grand gestures, he saw a jet-black, lotus-shaped orb fly high into the sky and land among the crowd. It was surrounded by an ethereal glow, half-real and half-illusionary, with swirling lights that were difficult to discern.

With a single step, he squeezed the Lotus World out of the vast murky waters, not harming it in the slightest. Notably, this water body hadn't been cleaned and still contained many negative views.

Dou Zhao's control over his power has truly reached a state of mastery.

But everyone has come to accept it as normal.

It’s not surprising that the first day of the Great Chu was such a remarkable performance.

Jiang Wang couldn't stop praising the white raccoon cat: "This cat is so smart, it's like a dog's nose."

Thinking about it, my own clumsy little grey cat hasn't been very clever either. I haven't heard of it bringing An An any treasures. It just spends its days eating and drinking for free.

Then he added, “It’s much more sensitive than a dog’s nose!”

The white fox's pupils dilated dramatically, and it burrowed its head into Ji Li's arms, refusing to show its face again. Only a long, fluffy tail swayed gently outside Ji Li's arm.

"Don't praise Xue Tanhua so much, she's a bit shy." Ji Li reminded tactfully.

This fat cat's name is actually this.

Jiang Wangdao: "It seems to be very popular."

They talked about their own things, while Wei wished them well and left with a gun. He had already prepared for the evil observers and assassins who were swarming around him.

The flames blazed with golden fire, burning like a line. Zhu Wei raced swiftly across the water, circling over and over again... Finally, only circles of golden fire burned on the surface, leaving no trace of the wicked sight.

"Let's go, let's have a look." Dou Zhao took the lead and stepped into the light and shadow of the lotus world.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

All followed in, only to find desolation everywhere.

The entrance was a lotus pond, but the leaves were all withered and rotten into clumps of black, bobbing on the water like ink spreading endlessly.

>

The water here is not as murky as outside, but there is a rotten stench.

It was once a thriving little world, but it withered and died after the sanctification of life by the Saints. Now, there is no trace of vitality left.

Jiang Wang and Zhu Wei exchanged a glance. In the next moment, Zhu Wei rose to his feet, transforming into a resplendent golden crow. He flapped his wings with might, soaring through the vast expanse of the heavens.

His body was like the blazing sun, radiating warmth in all directions.

The foul smell in the air was dispelled, and the distant gloom vanished.

And as the sunlight fell, it was mingled with gold, crimson, and white, dyeing everything withered and fallen...with brilliant colors, making this world reveal a cruel and magnificent beauty.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The true fire of the sun and the true fire of samadhi worked in perfect harmony, quickly penetrating this world.

And then the golden crow descended, transforming back into Zhu Wei's sharp-eyed self.

Jiang Wang's crimson eyes gradually faded, and finally said: "This lotus seed world is about to die, there is nothing here. There is only a skeleton wielding a sword, who knows how long it has been dead, the sword intent remains... at the level of divine presence. On the island in the center of the lake ahead, in a pavilion. Ning Daoyou can go over and have a few moves, see if there are any gains."

Ning Shuang's expression turned serene as she drew her sword, its light dancing in the air. She moved with grace, following his words.

Upon seeing the skull, she understood the unsaid words of Jiang Wang.

It was a skeleton, decayed and riddled with holes. The bones were arranged upright in the center of the pavilion, and on the stone steps before it, an inscription in sharp, forceful characters:

The word is ——

The magistrate of Jiange was Qing..Jiang Wang found a decent-looking tavern, claimed a table for himself, ordered a pot of warmed wine, and two catties of boiled mutton. He listened to the chatter of the people, those colorful lives.....
