Da Xuan Martial Saint

Chapter 1235: Chapter 602: Causality

Causality.

This is a term far more mystical than creation, all spirits, all forms, and so on.

Chen Mu’s understanding of causality is shallow, or rather, his affinity with it is poor. There is a fundamental reason for this: to explore causality, he cannot avoid the system panel itself!

Tracing his past, in that small Prefecture City, he unexpectedly met Xu Hongyu, gained her appreciation, this was the effect. Tracing the cause, it was because he relied on the system panel to master a blade technique, which led to the subsequent effect.

Similarly,

The first opponent he encountered, He Mingxuan of the He Family, saw him as an enemy because he joined Xu Hongyu’s ranks, attempting to kill him numerous times, but ultimately perishing at Chen Mu’s hands.

The most significant reason for this outcome was his use of the system panel to rapidly and significantly increase his strength, acquiring means to eliminate threats.

Unable to avoid the system panel, his affinity with the mysteriousness of causality is naturally poor.

The pursuit of the causality branch is about exploring the fundamental nature, origins, and outcomes of things, while he neither knows the origins of the system panel nor the direction its results lead, which is a huge obstacle on his path of understanding.

"Is this what is meant by, with losses come gains?"

Chen Mu mused to himself.

Relying on the system panel, he was able to cultivate to his current level of strength within just a few thousand Boundary Years, but the system panel also created numerous obstacles for his comprehension of the mysteriousness of causality.

Yet in his view, what he gained is far greater than what he lost.

Because while the system panel did cause confusion and obstacles in his understanding of the causality branch, it did not completely block his path to penetrating the causality branch.

The reason is simple: if the system panel’s obstacle were here, for him to completely penetrate the full mystery of causality through his own abilities would indeed be extremely difficult, almost as difficult as comprehending mystical fusion.

However, precisely because of the system panel’s existence, he doesn’t need to fully grasp the causality branch.

He just needs to understand a part of it, gain sufficient experience, and can utilize the system panel to directly observe the mysteriousness of causality itself, thus directly unraveling it and understanding the intricacies of causality from its roots.

Even if this process is slightly tumultuous, for him, it remains unobstructed, and penetrating the full mystery of causality is merely a matter of time.

"Causality, hm, this branch is indeed quite special. Compared to the Dark Sky Abyss, the efficiency of comprehending causality would be higher on the side of the Da Xuan World."

Although the Dark Sky Abyss occasionally reveals some mystical essence, including the mysteriousness of causality, its essence is extremely chaotic, and by Chen Mu’s judgment, its internal causality is likely reversed and tangled.

On the contrary, a world like the Da Xuan World, with its proper order, is more suitable for him to comprehend causality.

...

Da Xuan World.

It has been a very long time since the demonic calamity descended, and the first who ascended to the God Realm through martial arts, Chen Mu, repelled the Demon Clan and defended one side of the world; all of this has already become legends flowing through the world.

Not only Chen Mu, but even the people around him, such as Chen Yue, Chen Yao, and others, even the disciples he once took on, like Jin Ling’er, and even Jin Ling’er’s disciples... these have all become legends in the world.

Today’s world is in a structure of one sacred land and one dynasty, with hundreds of sects looking up to them.

The so-called ’one sacred land’ refers to the sacred land that all martial artists in the world dream of, the Seven Mysterious Sacred Land.

The Seven Mysterious Sacred Land naturally evolved from the former Seven Profound Sect, accumulating over ten thousand years, and has become the undisputed peak in the world, with a position far above any mundane power, even surpassing the dynasty itself, able to change its standing with a single word.

The so-called ’one dynasty’ refers to the ruling dynasty of the world, which is still the Da Xuan Dynasty, but in essence, it has undergone tremendous changes compared to the era of Chen Mu.

As the saying goes, ’When one person attains the Way, his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.’

After Chen Mu became the Realm Master, not only did the people around him, but even the Yu Family, the Chen Family, and others, rapidly developed, becoming top-tier powerful families of the current age in the span of ten thousand years.

These powerful families, in their growth process, also formed numerous close ties with the former Da Xuan Royal Family’s Ji Family, with innumerable marriages over the millennia, especially in this current generation, it is difficult to say whether the bloodline of the current emperor contains more of the Ji Family or more of the Yu Family and the Chen Family.

The Chen Family and the Yu Family, due to the presence of Chen Mu and Xu Hongyu, inherently hold a transcendent status, thus they are indifferent to the secular power of the dynasty, caring little for the so-called imperial throne, hence it remains with the Ji Family.

However, compared to the ’Ji surname,’ after more than ten thousand years of development and change, the Chen surname and the Yu surname have even become more esteemed, and the Chen Family and the Yu Family can also determine the succession of the imperial throne of the Da Xuan Dynasty.

"The world’s threads began with me, and to this day, all causes lie in me."

In the current Da Xuan World, because of the existence of him as the Realm Master, compared to tens of thousands of years ago, its total area is at least nearly three times larger, and the concentration of Heaven and Earth’s Yuan Qi is almost twice as high!

Chen Mu overlooks the entire Da Xuan World, his gaze sweeping over city after city, shadow after shadow, as if seeing countless densely packed threads, intertwining with each other and twisting into a cord, then each cord converging into a towering golden thread, the end of which is himself.
