I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 1868: Chapter 1868: The Cause and Effect Stirred by the Star Essence

The coffin didn’t seem to have anything special about it.

Its entire body was black, as if forged from a very heavy piece of black iron.

The subtle aura emitted from it was the very thing that led Lu Changsheng here, emanating from inside this black iron coffin.

Lu Changsheng did not approach immediately; instead, he stopped at a hundred meters from the coffin, pointed a finger at the black iron coffin, and nine God Slaying Swords stood upright on top of it.

Simultaneously, as Lu Changsheng’s fingertip skimmed through the air, killing arrays appeared around the coffin, enclosing it in three rings in front and three rings behind.

Then, he released a miniature Nine Netherworld Formation in front of himself...

The main body of the Nine Netherworld Formation is set in the Longevity World as a sect-protecting formation and cannot be moved arbitrarily.

So Lu Changsheng extracted part of it to carry with him.

Even the previously forged hand cannon was brought out by Lu Changsheng, aimed at the black iron coffin.

At the cannon’s muzzle, the power of Primordial, converging with all the Dao Laws of the 3,000 Great Dao, was poised to erupt!

If the coffin showed any signs of movement, the power of Dao Law within the hand cannon would be unleashed crazily.

At that moment.

A speechless voice came from inside the coffin.

”Isn’t this overdoing it? Any random one of these is enough to take me out, yet you’ve brought so many?”

Lu Changsheng replied calmly, ”A lion uses its full strength even when capturing a rabbit; that’s the only principle I understand.”

”...”

But isn’t this a bit too much force?

”Don’t worry, I’m not your adversary nor should I be.”

In response, Lu Changsheng did not relax his vigilance.

The Nine Netherworld Formation and hand cannon continued to charge, ready to bombard the coffin together at any moment.

”Qin Zhan, you should have met him, right?”

Qin Zhan?

Lu Changsheng frowned slightly, recalling the large eye within the Immortal Realm Channel that later appeared before him as Nuwa’s subordinate.

”You should have sensed my divine sense too.”

With that, a wisp of divine sense floated out from the coffin, gently swirling around Lu Changsheng, much like the gaze he felt earlier.

Upon confirming there was no threat, Lu Changsheng sensed the aura of this divine sense.

Had he felt this before?

Upon hearing the voice coming from the coffin, Lu Changsheng searched his mind for traces of this divine sense.

Suddenly.

Lu Changsheng remembered the eight divine senses detected during the founding of the Longevity World while inspecting the formations.

The first six merely scanned the area without touching the Longevity World.

The seventh had already touched the Longevity World but was blocked by Lu Changsheng’s formations.

That seventh divine sense was Qin Zhan’s.

And the eighth divine sense... the only one to penetrate the Longevity World’s formations, leaving traces in the Longevity World.

Lu Changsheng remembered it vividly, continuing to strengthen and improve the various formations to prevent such incidents.

Seeing Lu Changsheng’s increasingly enlightened expression, a resigned voice sounded from the coffin once more.

”After that one time, I could never pierce through that realm’s formations again, even though I barely made it the first time. Is it necessary to guard so vigilantly?”

Lu Changsheng responded calmly, ”If it can penetrate, there’s the possibility of being spied upon, so naturally it requires continued improvement.

But back to the point, what is your purpose?”

A voice from the coffin replied, ”When you found Lady Nuwa in the Immortal Realm, I figured you’d soon come here.”

Lu Changsheng frowned, ”Lady? So you’re also Nuwa’s subordinate?”

”That’s right,” said the voice from the coffin, ”Among the four Heavenly Generals under Lady Nuwa, Qin Zhan is one, and I, Qin Han, am the chief of them.”

”Both called Qin?”

Qin Han explained, ”The Qin Family has always revered Lady Nuwa, both Qin Zhan and I are Qin Family members.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng asked, ”So where are the other two Heavenly Generals?”

”They follow Lady Nuwa,” Qin Han answered frankly, as if following an already set script.

”Qin Zhan patrols the six worlds in physical form under Nuwa’s orders.

I, on the other hand, span the six worlds with divine sense, while my physical form remains in the Immortal Realm to monitor and control them.

Also, waiting for your arrival.”

Lu Changsheng frowned, ”Waiting for me?”

Qin Han asked, ”You remember the Star Essence?”

Lu Changsheng nodded.

Back then in the Immortal Realm Channel, that large eye, who was Qin Zhan, said the Star Essence was crucial in the great calamity of the six worlds, and whoever possessed it would play an important role.

Now, the Star Essence has become the tenth core of the star within Shi Sheng.

”Did this have to do with the Star Essence?”

Qin Han explained, ”The Star Essence is actually a key.”

A key?

Lu Changsheng was confused for a moment but then seemed to realize something and asked, ”The key to this world?”

”Clever,” Qin Han affirmed, ”The Star Essence was well hidden, and now that your disciple has it, it has stirred matters of fate.

The aim of the Immortal Realm is to control the Lower Five Realms to find the Star Essence, as those from the Immortal Realm cannot freely enter the Lower Five Realms under our control.

They can only employ sect cultivators from the Lower Five Realms to seek the Star Essence.

Doing so would open this world, allowing beings from the Immortal Realm to descend.”

Lu Changsheng realized why Qin Zhan had said whoever wielded the Star Essence would be tied to a great fate.

Qin Zhan had urged Lu Changsheng to keep the Star Essence instead of giving it to Shi Sheng.

Now it made sense.

”Why didn’t you say earlier?” Lu Changsheng felt a twinge of regret.

Qin Han paused and instinctively asked, ”What do you mean by why not say earlier...”

”If I knew, I wouldn’t have sought the Star Essence!” Lu Changsheng regretted deeply, ”I could’ve found something else for Shi Sheng, or devised a cultivation technique for him to practice instead of that one!”

Qin Han was speechless but still said, ”Some causes cannot be altered. Even if you hadn’t taken the Star Essence due to this matter, you would still bear the consequences in another way, as this is your destined burden.

Yet, while causes can’t be changed, the consequences can be altered by human effort.”

Recalling his thoughts after meeting Nuwa, Lu Changsheng said, ”So... what you want to do is to guide me on how to correctly change this consequence?”

Qin Han did not answer directly.

He simply said, ”One day you will understand everything, and from now on, the Heavenly Generals will be at your service.”

With those words.

A loud creaking noise.

The coffin slowly opened...
