397: Secrets of the Earth

"Master, what exactly is going on?"

Gu Qingfeng couldn't help but ask Su Can, his heart filled with shock, "It's just setting up a Star Array, drawing on the power of the stars to replenish and transform Qixia Mountain. How could such a great deed generate so much merit, causing Heaven to bestow it?"

"This disciple doesn't understand. Please enlighten me, Master!"

In the path of cultivation, the greatest taboo is to have persistent thoughts and an obstructed mind.

Gu Qingfeng was showing this tendency now.

"Calm down!"

Su Can saw his unusual state at a glance. The bestowal of merit from Heaven was just a fuse.

Gu Qingfeng's biggest problem was the continuous breakthroughs without time to settle down and refine his state of mind, which led to an unstable Dao Heart and realm!

However, with his calm shout, the Seven Emotions Divine Power secretly activated, instantly dispelling Gu Qingfeng's persistent thoughts.

Even stubborn obsessions and delusions were completely removed by this calm shout!

The Seven Emotions Divine Power, as Su Can cultivated, became increasingly powerful and its uses more widespread.

It wasn't just Gu Qingfeng!

Even Zhao Hao, Zhu Lei, the monkey, Cao Fenjin, and everyone else, under this calm shout, had all their distracting thoughts, delusions, and persistent thoughts swept away.

Their spiritual platforms became clear!

Their restless minds were subdued!

Everyone felt that their previously fluctuating realms instantly stabilized.

Especially the monkey, whose violent and irritable thoughts vanished without a trace.

At this moment, he suddenly became quiet, with downcast eyes, like an old monk in meditation.

"You're very confused why I, your Master, could cause the Earth's Heavenly Dao to condense and bestow Heavenly Dao merit just by setting up a Star Array, aren't you?"

Su Can looked at the auspicious light and energy, all of which were absorbed and integrated into his golden body. Then he smiled faintly, looking at Gu Qingfeng, as well as Wu Chaosheng, Cao Fenjin, and the other disciples.

Gu Qingfeng bowed and saluted, "Please enlighten and clarify, Master."

"Hmm, since I've taken you as disciples, imparting knowledge and dispelling doubts is naturally my duty as your Master."

Su Can said, pondering for a moment to organize his words, and then stated calmly, "Actually, setting up a single grand array is not enough to make the Earth's Heavenly Dao bestow merit."

"But this is a different time. The Earth's spiritual energy is depleted, and the Heavenly Dao is in peril. The root cause of these issues lies in ancient times, or even earlier!"

"It's because in ancient times, the Earth experienced countless great wars and several collapses, constantly evolving to reach its current state and situation."

"The land shattered, the stars drifted away, the Heavenly Dao split, and the Heavenly Dao and the Earth's origin became increasingly scarce, almost to the point of exhaustion. That's why the Heavenly Dao is powerless to gather spiritual energy anymore!"

"I, your Master, set up the Star Array, connecting with the great stars that have drifted beyond the Heavenly Dao, to draw the power of the ancient stars into the Earth. Although it's not much, this act is a beginning!"

"A beginning of using the power of external stars to infuse the Earth and give back to the Heavenly Dao!"

"It is precisely because of this that the Earth's Heavenly Dao condensed and bestowed merit upon me."

After Su Can finished his concise explanation, everyone fell into shock, remaining silent for a long time.

Su Can, fearing that everyone might not fully understand, added, "Actually, the Earth in the very distant ancient, and even primordial, times was extremely vast, a truly boundless great realm!"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, nor am I afraid you won't believe it, but according to the inheritance I've received and the feedback from the Earth itself, in primordial times, the Earth was a world possessing the Great Dao!"

"Later, due to various wars and struggles, the Earth shattered, transforming into three thousand great worlds and countless middle and small worlds!"

"These are the various cultivation realms we have now; they are merely fragments that split off from the Earth during the great wars!"
