My cultivation is too warm

Instead of burying the Nine Wonders Peak Master, Xu Mo directly froze him in ice.

He felt that if he could rebuild the immortal path in the future, he would definitely have the opportunity to revive it.

Although there is no sign of reshaping the path to immortality, he still cherishes that hope.

The departure of the Nine Peak Master plunged everyone into a state of grief.

However, a piece of good news soon arrived, which diluted this sad mood.

The first new life among the surviving humans has been born, and this newborn is from the former Immortal Pure World.

This is a joyous occasion worthy of celebration for the new era.

This signifies the official start of a new era's turning wheel of fate, with more and more new lives to be born.

Of course, more and more people may leave.

If he had not continued on the path to immortality, it is very likely that all the surviving humans would have perished, until he was the only one left in the world who belonged to the "old era".

Thinking of this, Xu Mo felt a sense of urgency rising within him.

A few days later, the couple who had just given birth came to Xu Mo with their child, asking him to name the baby.

Xu Mo understood what the couple meant. As the first life born in the new era, they hoped he could give their child a name with profound meaning as an encouragement to the new era.

Life always needs a bit of ritual.

However, after careful consideration, Xu Mo felt that this was inappropriate, because while it would be an inspiration to the new era, it would put a lot of pressure on the child.

Think about it: from the moment a person is born, they carry heavy burdens such as "hope" and "new life".

When he grows up, these names will become a constraint on him, making it hard for him to breathe.

These "older generation" people have already endured a lot of suffering; they shouldn't pass on that pressure and pain to the next generation.

Suddenly, he recalled everything that Daoist Zixiao, Peak Master Jiumiao, and the older generation of people in the ancient world had done.

Their care and love for the younger generation, and their unwavering stance of standing in front of them whenever something happens.

At this moment, he finally understood their feelings back then.

Yes, the meaning of their existence and struggle is precisely to ensure that the new generation will no longer have to worry about the troubles they once faced.

No longer worrying about the worries they once faced.

No longer suffering the hardships they once endured, they can live carefree, free, and happily enjoy every day.

This is what they are pursuing, and what they need to strive for.

Xu Mo's reasoning convinced the parents who had just given birth, as well as the people who came to witness the ceremony.

Everyone seriously considered his words, and then applauded in agreement.

These words were broadcast live to every corner of the human world in this new era.

The world has deeply remembered the teachings of the Ancestor of All Spirits in the New Era.

Finally, under the watchful eyes of the world, Xu Mo named the newborn baby "Ping An".

He smiled at everyone and said calmly, "What we older generation truly and sincerely hope for the next generation is that they can live out their lives peacefully and safely. That is enough."

"As for happiness and joy, we have done our best to create everything we can for them. Whether they can feel happy or joyful is up to them to feel or create for themselves."

From that day forward, the first baby born in the new era was named "Ping An" (meaning "peace"). After that day, the new era burst forth with unprecedented vitality, and everyone became more hardworking than before.

Because everyone remembered Xu Mo's words, which left the suffering of the era to their generation, so that the next generation could face their lives without pressure.

The next day, Elder Ouyang found Xu Mo and praised him with a stern face, "Well done."

Xu Mo knew he was talking about naming newborns.

He nodded slightly and then smiled, "Because I am now like you were before, someone who will protect the next generation from the wind and rain."

Elder Ouyang stared at him silently for a while after hearing this, then nodded slightly, revealing a satisfied smile, and said with emotion: "You have thoroughly grasped the principles of Xianqing and Canggu."

Xu Mo smiled. "After all, I grew up under your protection, didn't I?"

Elder Ouyang fell silent.

Then he walked straight to Xu Mo's computer desk, turned on the computer, took out a USB flash drive from his pocket and plugged it into the computer.

After a while of busy work, a hissing sound rang out, and then the printer in Xu Mo's study spat out sheets of paper.

Although Xu Mo didn't know what Elder Ouyang wanted to do, he stayed quietly to the side and waited.

After a while, the printer finished its work.

Elder Ouyang got up and went into Xu Mo's study. He took out a thick stack of papers, placed them in front of Xu Mo with a thud, and said to him in a stiff tone, "Do it!"

Xu Mo was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and his mind instantly recalled the scene when he first met Elder Ouyang.

Without saying a word, the other party handed him a jade slip containing the questions to test him, and he passed the test with a perfect score.

Thinking of this, Xu Mo's expression became slightly dazed, and then he glanced at the pile of test papers that Elder Ouyang had printed out.

The above contains some modern scientific knowledge such as modern biology, botany, and cell biology, as well as some basic knowledge of spiritual plant practitioners.

Looking at the questions above, Xu Mo had countless questions in his mind, but he said nothing and simply picked up his pen to start answering them.

Elder Ouyang's test paper was quite long, containing thousands of questions, and it took Xu Mo seven days to finish answering them.

During this time, Elder Ouyang stayed by his side, taking care of feeding him and bringing him water, without disturbing him while he was doing his homework.

When evening came, Elder Ouyang simply went to sleep on the sofa.

Now that he has lost his cultivation, he naturally cannot stay up all night.

After Xu Mo finished the test, Elder Ouyang spent another two days grading the papers.

This made Xu Mo feel a little emotional. When they first met, Elder Ouyang had only glanced at him before grading all the test questions he had done.

Now, that time has been extended to two days.

"Out of 3,650 questions, he only answered less than 1,000 correctly, and most of them were from plant cultivators," Elder Ouyang said calmly, looking at him.

"This..." Xu Mo scratched his head awkwardly. Although he was hailed as the founder of the scientific path, his level was really just average, like that of an ordinary undergraduate student.

Especially in the field of science today, thanks to the deductions of scientific giants like the Old Man of Ten Thousand Demons, it has far surpassed the level of his previous life. The reason he was able to answer so many questions correctly is because he had the opportunity to study after the emergence of new knowledge.

Elder Ouyang remained calm, showing no sign of anger, and said indifferently, "These are all the skills I have acquired in my life!"
