First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

A gentle breeze swept across heaven and earth.

Purple qi carried itself for thirty thousand miles.

The heavens: Hahaha, my child, my child!!!

All cultivators often speak of defying heaven and changing fate, declaring that their destiny is theirs to command, not heaven’s to dictate.

But in truth, heaven and earth bestow everything. Within the path of cultivation, every critical juncture cannot escape the limits set by heaven and earth.

Even defying heaven and changing fate means growing within heaven and earth, escaping the ordinary conclusion that awaits those of equal destiny in the conventional sense.

It’s like how Lu Ding grew up in Great Han. If you moved him somewhere else, say Baoji Kingdom or Great Jing, whether he could even survive as an orphan is anyone’s guess.

Now that he’s grown strong, if he were to say, ”I got where I am today entirely by my own ability,”

Well, without the social welfare and support of Great Han,Then Mottian, who froze to death in Old Tang’s arms, would be a cautionary tale.

Hell, Lu Ding might not even have been lucky enough to be picked up by a kind soul like Old Tang.

So sometimes, when people shout about defying heaven and changing fate, it really is...

Lu Ding’s attitude, on the other hand, is gratitude for everything. Gratitude toward Great Han, gratitude toward the heavens. He even feels a slight gratitude toward Lu Teng and Luo Qingshi as a couple, because without them, he might never have come into this world.

But that gratitude toward the couple had long since dissipated in their abandonment.

For such a mistake, Lu Ding would never forgive!

Heaven sent lightness and clarity to stabilize Lu Ding’s soul, like a father, watching over Lu Ding’s ethereal, undefined future, like those words, ”If things get tough out there, come back home. Dad will find you a job.”

Earth sent weight and turbidity to reshape Lu Ding’s physical body, like a mother, attending to Lu Ding’s clothing, food, shelter, and travel, protecting his healthy growth, like those words, ”Remember to eat breakfast. Smoke less, drink less. You’ve gotten thin. Come back early this year. Mom made your favorite dumplings, and braised pork too. Time to eat well.”

Such things were heaven and earth silently acknowledging the process of Lu Ding’s transition from adopted son to blood son.

Golden muscles, jade bones, blood like mercury, reshaped before everyone’s eyes.

Meridians threaded through the body that heaven and earth had reforged for Lu Ding.

Everyone watched this scene, utterly dumbfounded.

Even though none present were ordinary people, they had never witnessed a spectacle like this.

They had seen people born with heaven-sent extraordinary phenomena, and they had seen all kinds of innate brilliance.

But they had never seen a being personally nurtured by heaven and earth themselves.

Only the Black-Robed Great-Grandmaster of Lü Mountain was stunned, then burst into laughter: ”HAHAHAHAHAHAHA..........”

”I know!!! I know now!!!!”

”This is acquired returning to innate!!!!”

”Innate nurturing!!!!”

”Innate-born life!!!!”

”Heaven-born human race!!!!”

”Heaven blesses Lü Mountain, heaven blesses Lü Mountain, HAHAHAHAHA.........”

”Lü Mountain disciples, hear my command, form protective formation!!!!”

With the Black-Robed Great-Grandmaster’s orders, a host of Lü Mountain experts immediately unleashed their auras, assuming full combat alert, for ten thousand miles, a hundred thousand miles, a million miles!!!!

If anything seemed even slightly wrong, they would strike out and obliterate it instantly!!!

There would not be a shred of mercy.

This was Lü Mountain’s breakthrough from destruction. Originally, Lü Mountain had stopped accepting disciples. Lu Ding had already broken that rule, but who would have thought that this very exception would bring Lü Mountain an innate-born life!

Lü Mountain’s heritage was ancient and profound.

Among its records were accounts of similar situations, though not this specific, not this detailed.

It was said that in ages past, before chaos was divided, heaven and earth were intermingled in confusion, and within that chaos, heaven-and-earth-born beings were nurtured. Only when heaven and earth separated did these beings emerge into the world, a metaphor for a mother giving birth, where the child within the womb finally sees the light!

Those beings were each and every one terrifying beyond measure.

Their growth ceilings were so high as to be almost unimaginable.

Just look at Lu Ding, gradually shaped in the air by heaven and earth. Favor always resides in the details. Heaven and earth’s natural molding did not change Lu Ding’s height, nor did it drastically alter his appearance.

It only made him more perfect than before.

No, it should be said, absolutely perfect.

Built upon Lu Ding’s original appearance, temperament, and defining features, elevated to perfection!!!!

Like a flawless piece of precious jade, divinely sculpted in form.

Until the final focal point slowly settled into Lu Ding’s eyes, where the colors of all creation adorned them with a crystalline, glass-like spectrum of dazzling hues.

Finally, profound pictographic talismans were engraved, arcane characters etched into both pupils.

Those who saw them could not recognize them, yet could understand their profound meaning.

Heaven.

Son!

BOOM!!!

An overwhelming aura exploded from Lu Ding’s body, surging outward, sweeping across the entire cosmos.

A white lotus with nine petals bloomed on Lu Ding’s left shoulder, and a blood lotus with nine petals bloomed on his right shoulder.

Finally, a black lotus bloomed above his head, its petals slowly unfurling, one after another.

Lu Ding, shaped by heaven and earth, surged directly from Spirit Refinement Eighth Layer into Feng rank One of God Ascension!!!

Every God Ascension cultivator has their own unique traits and their title’s focus.

At this moment, Lu Ding’s title was now visible in his eyes, yet it was not a God Ascension earned through natural progression and contention.

It was a true heaven-conferred nobility, the Son of Heaven!

From the very root, he was different from all other God Ascension cultivators.

The situation with the Lu Family had drawn the attention of countless forces across Ji Continent, and at this moment, they too bore witness to Lu Ding’s rebirth.

They saw this world-shattering sight.

Even from such a great distance.

Lu Ding, standing in the sky, reshaped by heaven and earth, was so dazzling, so clearly visible.

The two characters, Son of Heaven, drew gasps from countless onlookers.

”Son... Son of Heaven, the heavens’ own child!??? This... this.........”

”This child’s future achievements are absolutely unimaginable. The Lu Family really screwed themselves this time, personally pushing away their own future. If this man returns to the Lu Family, then the Lu Family of the future will be no mere regional power!!!”

”HAHAHAHA, good thing the Lu Family pushed him away. Otherwise, there’d be no room left for us to stand! The Lu Family is already dominant in Ji Continent. If a Son of Heaven returned to their ranks, who could possibly restrain them?”

”Easy for you to say, as if Lü Mountain isn’t dominant either. Lü Mountain is even more terrifying than the Lu Family, you know?”

”How is that the same? How is that even the same concept? It’s true that Lü Mountain is powerful, but they don’t leave Demon Continent. No matter how strong they are, that’s their own business. They don’t threaten us. They’re a reclusive sect with no conflict of interest with us, and they certainly won’t plunder our resources.”

”Even without Lu Ding, without a Son of Heaven, they’d still be strong. Now with Lu Ding, they’re even stronger. But they were already strong to begin with. However much stronger they get doesn’t matter. We can’t catch up to them anyway.”

”But the Lu Family operates in the secular world. If they had taken Lu Ding back, that would have affected our interests.”
