Li Zheng's Moment of Enlightenment

'Bang!'

'Bang!'

'Bang!'

The purple star fell towards Lu Changsheng from the sky.

In an instant, the purple star appeared above Lu Changsheng's head. It started to cast images of amazing weapons such as jade brushes, scrolls, jade books, musical instruments, Go boards, and the like. All of them were giving off formidable Literary Qi.

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

The purple star buzzed. The sound it gave off was resounding enough to be heard by the entire Zenith Heaven.

"The star buzzed six times! That's the proof of a Half-Saint!" Li Zheng exclaimed in amazement.

The Literary Arts Star was the star that showed the qualifications of a scholar.

According to history, the Literary Arts Star would buzz three times when a top scholar was born.

When it buzzed six times, this meant that a Half-Saint would definitely be produced.

Soon after Li Zheng finished his words.

The Literary Arts Star buzzed one more time.

'Buzz!'

"It's a seventh buzz! He's a Saint-to-be!" Zhao Chun exclaimed.

A Saint-to-be was the teacher for all scholars in the world, it means that the person is a step closer to becoming the Saint Scholar.

'Buzz!'

However, this wasn't the end.

The star buzzed one more time.

The drifting purple air soon filled the whole sky. The resounding buzz spread throughout the nine states and ten lands, making people drop their chins.

"A Saint-to-be! Are we expecting another Saint-to-be?"

"A Saint-to-be! The teacher for all scholars! For all people!"

Discussing with each other, the audience all felt extremely shocked.

'Buzz!'

At this moment.

The purple light overwhelmed the entire Middle-Earth, covering the sky.

Silence prevailed between heaven and earth.

The Literary Arts Star buzzed nine times.

This was extremely rare in history. This could only happen when a scholar became a real saint.

At this time, the formidable purple light poured into Lu Changsheng's body.

Illusionary figures appeared behind Lu Changsheng. Some were holding scriptures, some were observing stars, and some were staring at the whole universe.

"Nine times… It's the proof of a Saint! He's the imperial teacher for the entire world!"

Can Qi gasped at the unbelievable view before him.

All of them were well-known top scholars. Many years ago, the Literary Arts Star buzzed three times for them.

However, the Literary Arts Star buzzed nine times today.

The last buzz was as deafening as a bolt of lightning, shaking the entire world of cultivation.

All of the parties witnessing this historical moment were completely shocked.

Lu Changsheng wasn't a saint yet, despite this, the Literary Arts Star buzzed nine times for him. Then… what would happen when he became a real saint?

"Respect to the Saint Scholar!"

"Respect to the Saint Scholar!"

"Respect to the Saint Scholar!"

They had no idea on how to describe their feelings, Li Zheng and the rest of the top scholars knelt once more.

At this time, a sonorous voice arrived from the Dynasty of Sun-moon, "I am Zhu Zhan, the emperor of the Dynasty of Sun-moon. My respect to the Saint Scholar, the future imperial teacher of the dynasty."

His majesty of the Dynasty of Sun-moon was extremely lofty. As one of the three imperial empires in Middle-Earth, the dynasty's power could compete with that of the Zenith Heaven.

"I am Zhou Yuan, the emperor of the Dynasty of Da Zhou. My respect to the Saint Scholar, the future imperial teacher of the dynasty," the emperor of the Dynasty of Da Zhou also sent his greetings afterwards.

"I am Qian Qing, the emperor of the Dynasty of Da Qian. My respect to the Saint Scholar, the future imperial teacher of the dynasty."

Now, the three empires paid their respects to Lu Changsheng, the Saint Scholar. They regarded him as the future imperial teacher.

He was the teacher for all the emperors. The Saint Scholar of the entire world.

His honor was supreme.

In other words, if Lu Changsheng visited the three empires in the future as the imperial teacher, he would be treated as respectfully as how the emperors were treated.

The prestige he had was incredible.

However, on the altar.

Lu Changsheng was confused yet again.

He merely recited some poems and now they were all calling him their teacher.

Was being a teacher such a simple job in this world?

In the mundane world, new students would bring gifts to their teacher. Lu Changsheng wondered if the same thing applied at this moment.

He then cast a glance at the special effects above his head. Lu Changsheng had already become quite accustomed to it.

In the past three years, his minor achievements kept causing unusual natural phenomena.

Even after reaching the Qi Refining stage, it had caused quite a stir. Lu Changsheng wasn't surprised at all by the power caused by these classic verses.

He turned to look at Perfected Qing Yun. Lu Changsheng's intention in his eyes was obvious. It was time to be off-duty now.

Perfected Qing Yun immediately understood it.

He cast a glance at Lu Changsheng and said aloud, "The grand ceremony ends!"

With this said, Lu Changsheng turned around and left.

After showing off in public, it was time for him to go back.

Studying pill recipes was his priority for now.

All these fancy titles and special effects didn't really matter to him.

However, before Lu Changsheng could even get off the altar.

Li Zheng's voice sounded out again, "Please wait teacher."

Lu Changsheng turned around. Although he couldn't see Li Zheng, he still heard his voice.

Li Zheng, however, could see Lu Changsheng's response. While kneeling on the ground, Li Zheng asked sincerely, "Teacher, my name is Li Zheng. My mind is constantly filled with confusion these days, it is preventing me from reaching the stage of becoming a true top scholar. Please enlighten me with your instructions! I will erect the stele of Longevity for you and worship you for generations, teacher!"

Li Zheng begged.

Lu Changsheng truly didn't know what Li Zheng was talking about.

Instructions?

What instructions?

Lu Changsheng himself knew nothing about cultivation, but now, Li Zheng was asking him questions!

People really couldn't tell what he was thinking.

They could only see Lu Changsheng's peerless elegance alongside the purple air surrounding him.

"What is your question?" Lu Changsheng asked him.

"I cannot reach the stage of a true top scholar because I don't know where the true principle of the universe is," Li Zheng sincerely asked.

Where was the true principle of the universe?

Most of the cultivators present were confused.

This question was too profound even for them.

"Everywhere," Lu Changsheng answered back, he had no idea what he was talking about.

But, his answer was quite surprising to his listeners.

While frowning, Li Zheng chewed the word over and over.

"If the principle is everywhere, then who is our teacher?" Li Zheng continued to ask.

Lu Changsheng frowned slightly.

Li Zheng's questions were really annoying…

However, to maintain his dignity, Lu Changsheng answered him in a very calm tone,

"Everything." Lu Changsheng had to keep talking nonsense.

However.

This single word shocked Li Zheng.

He sat down on the ground and became lost in his own thoughts.

Lu Changsheng turned around and left.

About an hour later.

Suddenly.

Streams of Literary Qi started spreading about.

Thick purple air embraced Li Zheng.

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

'Buzz!'

The Literary Arts Star buzzed five times as formidable purple air fell upon Li Zheng.

The cultivators present were all stunned at this scene.

"The Top Scholar between Heaven and Earth! Li Zheng's become the Top Scholar between Heaven and Earth!"

"His thoughts have been recognized by Heaven and Earth! He's only one step away from being a Saint-to-be!"

"The Saint Scholar only said two words! And yet, Li Zheng comprehended the ultimate principle of the universe just because of the Saint Scholar's two words! Amazing!"

The cultivators were deeply impressed.

Lu Changsheng only said two words. However, these two words helped Li Zheng succeed in finding the answer, finally becoming the Top Scholar between Heaven and Earth.

Joy quickly seized Li Zheng's heart. The heavy weight on his chest had been removed.

"I understand it now! I understand! The principle is everywhere in everything! Thank you teacher!

"Thank you teacher!"

Li Zheng burst out laughing.

His Literary Qi surged.

He had been recognized by Heaven and Earth.

The disciples in Zenith Heaven finally realized what just happened.

Li Zheng reached the next stage after hearing just those two words from Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng's power was utterly unbelievable.

His abilities were beyond formidable.
