Chapter 2 All Worlds of Great Luo
As a time traveler, Fu Xuan was both lucky and unlucky.
Fortunately, he possesses a cheat code that most transmigrators envy, which is also his innate ability: to draw power from all the heavens and myriad worlds. Its name is:
"All Worlds Great Luo"
Unfortunately, this extraction was random, at least initially beyond his control. When he awakened his innate wisdom and special abilities in the womb, he directly gained an ability that left him both amused and exasperated:
"Omniscient and omnipotent"
The power of this ability is just as great as its name suggests...
Omniscient!
It can foresee the future and analyze everything within sight.
All-powerful!
Within the scope of its capabilities, it can rewrite everything; it is omnipotent.
But this cannot be achieved from the beginning; it requires gradual cultivation and must go through a predetermined "fate" before it can truly "mature".
Even in the very beginning, the possessor of this ability will lose all five senses, becoming like an empty shell, with their consciousness locked in endless darkness. Only by sharing their own Qi with someone who has touched them, and then reclaiming it after that person's death, can they gradually recover.
This is also the first stage of this ability:
"The Gift of Life"
Its essence is "filling gaps", "parasitism" and "nurturing". All those who receive the gift can have their spiritual and physical defects filled, gain wholeness and happiness, and become a vessel to nurture this life, integrating their own spirit and body into it.
According to the will of the original being, when this life force is nourished and strengthened enough, it can be reclaimed, instantly reaping everything from the recipient, including their life...
Or it can be shaped and endowed with a special ability that can be taken back at any time and is consistent with the characteristics of the recipient.
Even in the initial stage, this ability is powerful enough, but the problem is that before the five senses are restored, the body is extremely fragile, and because it cannot move, it may be misjudged as having a congenital defect or even die prematurely, making it difficult to survive.
Fortunately, Fu Xuan's birth mother in this life sensed the child's heartbeat and did everything in her power to save him. Even though the family was poor, she never abandoned him, which is how this ability was able to manifest...
More and more people were "healed" by him and revered him as the "reincarnation of the Savior of Suffering," becoming a well-known "celestial child."
People revered the immortals and gods, so even in chaotic times, no one dared to harm him, and he was completely safe. As his life was spread and recovered, his five senses gradually returned.
And transcend the mundane!
Just as his fame was spreading, a man came to his door. His name was Song Jiang, and he was followed by a group of men. They were all suffering from the misfortunes of the world and had nowhere to turn, so they wanted to ask the immortal to give them guidance.
For Fu Xuan, this was a good opportunity. He could see that these people were all extraordinary individuals, more suitable as "vessels" than ordinary people, and could bring him greater rewards. So he pointed to Liangshan, which was not far away:
"You are all reincarnations of star gods, born into this chaotic world to save the common people and restore order. The current dynasty is corrupt and rife with evil spirits, which you have all personally experienced. Therefore, there is no need to be confused; follow your heart."
These words were exactly what Song Jiang and his men wanted to hear, strengthening their resolve to revolt. They immediately bowed and kowtowed, intending to invite him to their mountain stronghold, to be revered as a "divine master," and to work together to save the people from their suffering...
Fu Xuan naturally agreed.
He also gifted each of them a wisp of Qi.
After that, he went to Liangshan Marsh with his mother and became the guide for the heroes of Liangshan. When all 108 heroes gathered, his gift was ready, so he gave them the names of the Heavenly Stars and Earthly Fiends and bestowed upon them new abilities.
Thirty-six Heavenly Generals.
The Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends.
These are 108 kinds of divine and extraordinary techniques, whose power far exceeds that of ordinary supernatural abilities. Even the methods of long-established sects and families, and even within the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, are rarely comparable.
Therefore, when these 108 heroes suddenly appeared and raised their banners, the entire Northern Song Dynasty was shaken. The court sent countless experts and even large armies to try to suppress them, but they were all defeated and could only seek help from the three religions.
at this time.
The Taoist sect has just produced an exceptional individual.
His name was Zhang Boduan, and his courtesy name was Ziyang. He was learned from a young age, and he was well-versed in the classics of the three religions, medicine, divination, military strategy, and mathematics. After entering the Taoist school, he organized the classics, combined the methods of the three religions, and created the main tenet of cultivation, which is to cultivate "internal alchemy" and to cultivate "both nature and life".
And he asserted: This road will surely lead to heaven!
After creating this dual cultivation method, his cultivation indeed advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching a level that was difficult for any extraordinary person in the world to surpass. When the Liangshan Marsh raised its banner, he was already the leader of the Taoist sect and was recognized as the pinnacle of the martial arts world.
It's so far from this heavenly realm.
It's just one step short!
The Taoist school's doctrine on worldly affairs has always been "non-action yet nothing is left undone." To put it simply, it means not to act recklessly when one's strength is insufficient, but to act as one pleases when one's strength is sufficient.
In addition, given the Confucian concept of "Heaven, Earth, Ruler, Parents, and Teacher," even if the ruler was incompetent and the dynasty was corrupt, Zhang Boduan would never allow it to collapse. He immediately invited the three religions and various masters to head towards Liangshan.
That was in the third year of the Xuanhe era.
Daoist Ziyang.
Buddhist seal.
The Five Masters of Confucianism.
Together with the heads of various powerful families, fierce generals, and thousands of soldiers dispatched by the imperial court, they gathered at the foot of Liangshan Mountain.
In the history of supernatural beings, this battle is known as the Demon Suppression.
Although they had long heard of Fu Xuan's "immortal name" and admired his past acts of helping the world, his current actions were no longer tolerated by the righteous path. Therefore, the people who came to punish him also labeled him a "demon".
They said...
This demon, disguised as a "reincarnation of a deity," commits acts of demonic devouring. Those he heals all die without a complete corpse, their lives drained to aid his cultivation.
This is indeed true, but unless the person is wicked, Fu Xuan will never take back the Qi he has given him. Instead, he will wait until the person dies for other reasons or passes away peacefully. This was the "deal" he made with them when he was treating them.
They said...
This sorcerer harbors immense ambitions, seeking to become the first emperor of a different kind. This is an act against the will of Heaven, not only is his position illegitimate and contrary to the will of Heaven, but it will also inevitably bring about the destruction of countless lives.
That's not entirely wrong, but looking at the world at that time, the common people suffered while the kings and nobles were rich. Behind the red gates, meat and wine rotted, while on the roads, there were frozen corpses. Fu Xuan, who came from humble beginnings, had seen far too much of this...
Does it have to be left to develop in order to be called "destiny"?
Therefore, in this battle, no one from Liangshan retreated. All 108 heroes came out and led thousands of extraordinary people to fight to the death with the masters. However, the opponent was the best in the world, and Fu Xuan's abilities were not yet mature. In the end, they were defeated.
In the final battle, only one figure remained standing atop the beam—it was Fu Xuan. He had gathered the Qi from everyone in Liangshan, and his abilities had finally been elevated, breaking through to the second stage.
"The All-Seeing Eye"!
In that instant, the entire picture unfolded before his eyes. He could see the past and future of everyone below the mountain, and analyze everything about them, even the most powerful figure could not escape it.
But at the same time, he also saw his future clearly, and saw the "destiny" he had been waiting for. If he wanted to go further...
He opened his arms, letting Ziyang's thunderous sword pierce his heart...
He lost.
But it also marked the beginning of the real journey.
