Chapter 990 Revisiting Scripture Sea, The Peculiar Enlightenment Source, Enlightening All Beings?
There were hundreds of teachers in the Hundred Academy, but only twelve Gold Medal lecturers were standing before Chu Kuangren
now.
Chu Kuangren was now the Thirteenth Gold Medal lecturer and also the Thirteenth Master.
Even Immortals dared not underestimate the title of Hundred Academy’s masters as they represented the Hundred Academy, one of the ancient orthodoxies in Planquilon Immortal World.
Chu Kuangren promised to be Thirteenth Master because he had to continue to acquire knowledge from the Scripture Sea. Besides, having the academy as his backing could deter those ill-willed immortal orthodoxies.
He was killing two birds with one stone and was more than happy to be Thirteenth Master.
Since then, there was a well-read and an all-rounder Thirteenth Master in the Hundred Academy.
The news spread like wildfire in the academy, and even some immortal orthodoxies knew about it.
After learning that the Thirteenth Master was Chu Kuangren, some orthodoxies that were hostile to Chu Kuangren screamed in anger.
“Chu Kuangren has joined Hundred Academy? Not as a student but as a master?!”
“All masters in the academy are knowledgeable. How could Chu Kuangren become the Thirteenth Master of the academy?”
“F*ck. We’ll have to beware if we want to do something to him. Hundred Academy isn’t a force to be provoked.”
“The dean is one of the top-notched existences in Planquilon Immortal World. It is said that his cultivation base has reached the level of a Heavenly Immortal.”
“How lucky Chu Kuangren is…”
In Hundred Academy, Chu Kuangren taught for a while after becoming Thirteenth Master.
Then, he plunged into the Scripture Sea again.
This time, he stayed in the Scripture Sea for half a year, madly absorbing the knowledge in Scripture Sea.
He had reached the Seventh Cycle of the Nine-Cycle Trinity Soul Refinement, and his soul had become an immortal soul. In addition to the unique nature of the God-tier cultivation technique, his cognizance had made significant progress compared to the past.
Heaven, Hell, and Earth Soul worked together to absorb all kinds of knowledge in the Scripture Sea.
Chu Kuangren’s speed of absorbing knowledge was much faster than the last time he visited the Scripture Sea.
In addition, with the blessing of the transformation from his temperament, Chu Kuangren almost finished reading and comprehending countless ancient archives in Scripture Sea in just half a year. Such a feat was unprecedented!
In the Scripture Sea, Chu Kuangren was still reading and gaining knowledge.
Next to him, the Fourth Master looked at him with admiration. It was even more pleasing to her eyes when she looked at his handsome and flawless face. She was a little mesmerized by him.
At this moment, there was mysterious brilliance flowing around Chu Kuangren. It was the transformation of his temperament.
Fourth Master came back to her senses and was surprised.
One thing worth noting was that Chu Kaungren had been able to control the transformation very well. In recent months, the transformation had not appeared much.
‘Why does it appear again?’
Before she could figure it out, the mysterious brilliance around Chu Kuangren became more dazzling. Then, countless runes surged while Daoist chimes sounded.
Following that, in her shocking gaze, the mysterious brilliance mixed with the countless runes, turning into a golden light that shot straight into the sky!
Endless spiritual qi surged in the void. There were golden lotuses bloomed, Daoist chimes sounded, the emergence of an auspicious dragon and phoenix, a Kylin trod the sea, four phenomena arose, and many other transformations appeared, causing the entire Planquilon Immortal World seemed to tremble.
Deep in the academy, the white-haired elder abruptly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Scripture Sea with shock. “S-Such felling is…”
The entire academy trembled, and all masters came to the Scripture Sea.
At the door of Scripture Sea, Fourth Master was stunned in place.
“Fourth Senior Sister, what’s going on?” asked Seventh Master.
“Don’t ask me. I have no idea either.”
Fourth Master shook her head.
At this time, the transformation continued, and an incomparably strange surge of source energy emerged from the golden light.
When the source energy emerged, all masters and students’ bodies trembled for a while. Some mysterious insights seemed to have appeared in their minds, and some of the cultivation doubts that they had in the past were answered.
Everyone gasped for a while.
“W-What source energy is this? I was enlightened after sensing the fluctuation.”
“Oh my god. What kind of power is this?”
“I’ve never heard of this source!”
Even the well-informed masters felt the shock.
At this moment, an Immortal Stork flew in from afar, and above it sat a white-haired elder.
“Of course, you all have no idea about this source because only a few people can comprehend Enlightenment Source, even in the ancient and complete immortal world,” uttered the white-haired elder in amazement.
“Greetings, Dean.”
All masters saluted, one by one.
The person that came was the dean of Hundred Academy.
“Enlightenment Source?”
Eldest Master frowned slightly, and then his pupils shrank. “Is it the source that the Holy Late Teachers comprehended as rumored?”
“Yes.”
The dean nodded.
“I didn’t expect that I would get to see someone comprehends the Enlightenment Source in my lifetime.”
Enlightenment was one of the most peculiar sources in the universe.
It could help ignorant people to generate wisdom, tame unruly beasts, make all beings follow the rules…
“The Enlightenment Source energy is highly mysterious. I can’t comprehend it even if I put all effort in my entire life, and I didn’t expect that a young Immortal Progeny could comprehend it.”
The dean lamented. “Even if he doesn’t become an Immortal, with the Enlightenment Source energy, he can nurture thousands of Immortal Progenies and have students worldwide. Eventually, he will become a brilliant master who leaves a good name to posterity!”
“If he is given sufficient opportunities, he may even have the chance to become like the Hole Late Teacher of the academy to enlighten all beings.”
The Hundred Academy had a profound background and could even be traced back to the complete immortal world, which was the immortal ancient period of the last era.
During that era, Holy Late Teachers were well-known elites in the immortal world that even the dean should look up to.
The golden beam of light that penetrated the sky gradually subsided. Then, the surrounding transformations and countless mysterious runes also dispersed.
“Is it Enlightenment Source? It’s an unexpected gain.”
Chu Kuangren came back to his senses from the vast ocean of knowledge and felt the changes in himself.
After gaining insights from hundreds of ancient archives and the vast Scripture Sea, he unexpectedly comprehended Enlightenment Source energy. It was necessary to have a much higher level of knowledge than others to enlighten others. These days, Chu Kuangren had been absorbing all kinds of knowledge madly. Although the result was not being expected, it was reasonable.
Enlightenment Source was different from the various source energies that Chu Kuangren had comprehended in the past. This source was mysterious. He felt that the diverse knowledge he had learned during this period had been integrated under the Enlightenment Source energy, which was even more effective. In addition, his comprehension, learning ability, and many more seemed to have increased to varying degrees.
“One of the most mysterious sources between heaven and earth is indeed extraordinary.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
However, enlightening all beings was still not the path of Dao that he wanted to pursue as it was too tiring.
He was lazy. Therefore, he required the help of Elder Ruyan, Linglong, and the rest to manage the Firmament Empire.
‘Asking me to enlighten all beings?’
‘Well, forget about it.’
‘Whoever loves it can do so.’
Just like that, Chu Kuangren abandoned the promising avenue to heaven in front of him and refused to take the path.
