The God of Heavens

Chapter 1 Chapter 1-2 Mount Tai’s Spiritual Observation, Enlightenment by Wisdom

At the top of Mount Tai, there is the Jade Emperor Temple.

The curls of incense smoke rise straight up, entwining with the clouds in the mountains, just like a natural barrier that isolates the hustle and bustle of the world.

The Taoist temple is quiet and peaceful, with only the mountain breeze occasionally blowing the wind chimes on the eaves, and the long sound echoes endlessly in the valley.

There was a young man, wearing a green Taoist robe, sitting upright in a quiet corner of the Taoist temple, his clothes fluttering gently in the wind.

The young man has clear eyebrows and a face like a jade sculpture. His eyes are smart and deep, and he naturally exudes an extraordinary and otherworldly aura.

On the stone table in front of him, there was an ancient copy of the "Tao Te Ching". The pages were slightly yellowed, indicating that it had been read countless times.

"Time and space are so impermanent..."

Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh.

He was an ordinary young man on Earth, but he was extremely obsessed with the occult and myths and legends. One day, while hiking, he accidentally fell into a mysterious cave.

Inside the cave, a light flickered, and a strange light instantly enveloped him. When the light dissipated, he found himself in a vast, chaotic void.

Here, thick chaotic fog rolled and surged, sometimes condensing into a huge whirlpool, and sometimes rushing like a surging wave.

Lin Yu looked around in horror, his heart filled with fear of the unknown, and he was eager to find out where he was.

At that moment, a small golden figure emitting a soft golden light appeared out of thin air. The figure was no bigger than a palm, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura. Its eyes were like bright stars, staring silently.

However, before Lin Yu could react, the golden man suddenly flew out from the chaotic mist, turned into a golden light, and shot straight towards his eyebrows.

In an instant, Lin Yu felt a heat between his eyebrows, and the golden man instantly merged into the depths of his soul.

The moment his thoughts communicated with the golden man, a large amount of information flooded into Lin Yu's mind like a surging tide, causing him to have a splitting headache for a while.

It was a mysterious martial art composed of countless words and wonderful graphics - "Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Power"!
The method of cultivation described in the technique shocked Lin Yu:
"Use Qi to attract spirits, and use spirits to form images. Every move you make is the power of a giant elephant. A human body is made up of 840 million particles. If its potential is awakened, every tiny particle will be the power of a giant elephant. If all are awakened, they will be comparable to the divine elephant, overturning rivers and seas, roaring down stars, plucking the moon and swallowing the sun, all in a moment..."

Such a grand concept of cultivation seemed to open a door to the extraordinary world for him.

However, the impact of this huge torrent of information was too strong for him at the time. Lin Yu only felt a sharp pain in his head and then fell into a coma.

When he woke up again, he was already in this strange world, an orphan without any support. Fortunately, he was taken in by an old Taoist priest at the Jade Emperor Temple on Mount Tai, and he settled down there from then on.

Time passed slowly. A month ago, as Lin Yu continued to grow, his soul gradually grew stronger, and the memories of his past life returned like a tide.

"I never thought that time travel would happen to me." Lin Yu could never have imagined that the plot that only appeared in novels would now actually happen to him.

As Lin Yu sorted out his memories, his heart suddenly shook. This world was also called Earth, and its history and other aspects were roughly the same. The only difference was that there were traces of cultivators in this world. This gave the world's progress a bit of mythical color.

He discovered that in the distant past, their lineage had been full of talented people and practitioners.

Those ancestors, relying on their profound Daoist teachings, slew demons and saved lives, earning widespread renown. However, with the advent of the Dharma Ending Age, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth has become increasingly thin, making cultivation difficult. Despite their utmost efforts, the ancestors could not prevent the gradual decline of their lineage.

Today, the once glorious tradition of cultivation has almost completely vanished from the Jade Emperor Temple. Only he, a seemingly ordinary Taoist priest, remains, guarding this ancient temple and its few remaining scriptures.

Looking at the scene in the Taoist temple, Lin Yu's heart was filled with emotion but also with helplessness. During the day, the Jade Emperor Temple was bustling with people coming and going. Tourists shuttled between the various halls, either praying devoutly or observing curiously.

They marveled at the grand architecture of the Taoist temple and felt the mysterious atmosphere on the top of Mount Tai. However, only practitioners like him knew the loneliness there.

As night falls and the noise fades away, he is left alone with his old books, with no one to share his enlightenment and practice with.

The grand scene of the ancestors discussing Taoism has long gone, and now the inheritance is difficult to continue. He is like on an isolated island, with no one who understands him and no one to walk with him. This loneliness follows him like a shadow.

During this month, Lin Yu used the Internet to try to understand the world, but unfortunately, more in-depth information was shrouded in a layer of fog.

"It would have been great if I could have learned some internet hacking skills before awakening my memory." Lin Yu couldn't help but complain inwardly.

According to the information obtained from the master, this world is moving towards the Dharma Ending Age, the environment is deteriorating, and the spiritual energy is becoming increasingly thin.

A hundred years ago, during a turmoil, their lineage lost its inheritance in that catastrophe. Even the master who adopted him could only rely on some worldly connections to barely guard the Jade Emperor Temple on Mount Tai. As for the true inheritance of cultivation, it had long since disappeared.

At this moment, Lin Yu was once again immersed in thinking about the "Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Power".

This supreme magical skill was created by the supreme ruler in the chaotic universe of "The Holy King" in order to advance into the realm of nothingness, but for some unknown reason it drifted into the chaotic void and was obtained by him by chance.

When practicing this top-notch technique, one needs a huge amount of energy to develop giant elephant particles. Even the protagonist of the world, Yang Qi, had a thunder elephant condensed in his body after being struck by thunder.

Every time he practiced Qigong, a part of the divine elephant would melt into his body, making him progress extremely fast. One day of practice was equivalent to more than ten years of hard work for others before they even started on the path of cultivation.

Lin Yu could only try to find a place where spiritual energy gathered on the top of Mount Tai, hoping to use that meager spiritual energy to start his cultivation. As for the progress of his cultivation, it was really "a long way off."

"Did God send me to this Dharma-ending age to kill me?"

In the Dharma Ending Age, spiritual energy is scarce. Not to mention the "Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Power", even normal cultivation is extremely difficult, which made Lin Yu fall into despair for a time.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Yu was still immersed in the world of cultivation. At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the Taoist temple. This sound broke the Taoist temple's usual tranquility and pulled Lin Yu back from the state of cultivation.

He frowned slightly, secretly puzzled. Ever since he took over the Taoist temple after his master passed away, although there were pilgrims coming and going in the Jade Emperor Temple on weekdays, there had never been such a noisy sound.

Lin Yu slowly stood up, straightened his robe, and decided to go out to see what happened...
