Chapter 1100 - Two Years Abroad, Moral Scripture, The Root Of All Dao
After staying in Sycamore Mountain for a few days, Chu Kuangren was prepared to leave. In the past few days, he used the Yin Yang Life and Death Symbol to heal the Huang Mountain Ruler, and he also returned the Azure Phoenix Mirror to Qing Feng.
He no longer needed the mirror. Other than the mirror, he also gave Qing Feng a piece of jade scroll.
"The scroll has my own comprehension of the Jade Pool Immortal Scripture. You can have a look," Chu Kuangren said.
"Why are you doing this?" Qing Feng was confused.
She was already surprised when he gave her back the mirror, but she could not believe that he had even prepared his own comprehension of the Immortal Scripture for her.
"Once Lil Red becomes the true ruler of Sycamore Mountain, she will need someone by her side to help her with things. As the Azure Phoenix, your clairvoyant abilities make you the best candidate," Chu Kuangren said.
Qing Feng finally understood that he did all those for Chu Hong so that the girl would be prepared for the future.
She got excited for a moment because she thought he was doing that for her.
With that in mind, Qing Feng glared at Chu Kuangren, but Chu Kuangren turned a blind eye to it.
"Well, guys, I will see you when I see you," Chu Hong said to the Huang Mountain Ruler before she left with Chu Kuangren.

Soon, the news about Chu Hong remaining as the Phoenix Maiden of Sycamore Mountain got out, and a lot of people knew the deeper meaning of the news.
Sycamore Mountain had acquired Chu Kuangren's protection.
Whoever plotted against Sycamore Mountain would be plotting against his sister, and they would have to suffer Chu Kuangren's wrath.
No one in Planquilon Immortal World had the audacity and capability to offend him.
After leaving Sycamore Mountain, Chu Kuangren spent his days traveling around Planquilon Immortal World rather delightfully.
One day, he suddenly remembered that he used to visit all the major immortal orthodoxies when he first started his cultivation path.
Therefore, he planned to visit them again.
That trip of his took him two years in total.
In the two years, he visited all the major immortal orthodoxies of Planquilon Immortal World to either trade for cultivation scriptures or coerce them into borrowing him what he sought.
No one had the audacity to say no.
In fact, given his current net worth, the offer he made to every immortal orthodoxy was hard to reject.
Immortal pills, Immortal Weapons, Immortal Scriptures…
Chu Kuangren got a load of them from the gacha roll, and most of them were not used at all, so he traded them for cultivation knowledge.
During those two years, his cultivation knowledge increased a lot.
His cultivation level, however, barely increased. He only managed to level up from a Fourth-grade Earthen Immortal to Fifth-grade Earthen Immortal. Fortunately, his cultivation knowledge increased, and it would definitely help him a lot in the future.
When his visiting trip came to its end, Chu Kuangren returned to Hundred Academy and decided to go into closed-door meditation again so that he could comb through the knowledge he gained from his trip.
The closed-door meditation lasted for a month.
"Congratulation, Host! You've won a God-tier prize, Moral Scripture!"
As always, Chu Kuangren did a gacha roll when he came out from his closed-door meditation.
The prize he got surprised him, though.
Moral Scripture?
He took a glance at the introduction and realized it was not a cultivation Immortal Scripture. Instead, it felt more like the most powerful elite among Immortals wrote down his understanding of Dao and summarized them in this book.
"In the past life, the Moral Scripture's name spread far and wide, and there are also rumors about it in this world. I heard a Holy Late Teacher of the Hundred Academy once wrote a Moral Scripture. I wonder if this is the one…" Chu Kuangren mumbled.
He took the Moral Scripture out. It was a plain and simple scripture with a mustard color cover, giving it an aging feel.
However, other than the looks, it felt nothing more than a normal book. There was no strange phenomenon, no Daoist patterns, not even a strand of Immortal qi. It was a normal book.
Yet, when would a God-tier prize be normal?
With the book in his hand, he flipped open to the first page.
No words were surprisingly no words on it, but when he concentrated, words started to form before his eyes.
"Dao can be Dao, but not the normal Dao…"
It was just a line of words, and yet it released a solemn Daoist rhyme, which somehow captivated Chu Kuangren. He felt slightly intoxicated in it.
"Interesting." He continued reading it, and before he knew it, three months passed.
Chu Kuangren went through the entire Moral Scripture once. Yes, he was only able to read the whole book once in three months.
The whole book only had a few thousand words, but each word contained such mystical secrets as if it was the perfect description of Dao.
"A great Moral Scripture indeed." Chu Kuangren chuckled.
After going through the Moral Scripture, his knowledge of Dao increased again. The knowledge he gained from his two-year trip kept replaying in his mind. He thought he already understood them all, but after reading the book, he had acquired new insights into the past knowledge.
He glanced at the Moral Scripture again before putting it away around his waist.
He planned to take it out for a read whenever he had the time because it proved a great help to increase his understanding of Dao.
That might be the biggest God-tier prize he got, comparable to the Chaos Celestial Demon Physique and Indestructible Physique.
"Master."
Lan Yu welcomed him back from closed-door meditation.
Then, she noticed something unusual about him. The Master before him looked a little different from before, but she could not pinpoint exactly what. It felt like the Master looked even more charming than before.
Her Master was transcendental and used to emanate a distant feeling. However, he now looked more easy-going.
On top of that, she also noticed the book around his waist.
With the Self Descendant Sword on his left and the book on his right, Chu Kuangren looked like a scholar who had traveled the world with a sword.
"Lan Yu, tell the others that I'm having a class."
Chu Kuangren decided to spread the knowledge that he gained in the past two years.
"Yes, sir." Lan Yu nodded.
The news of him giving a lecture spread within the academy. It excited countless students and even teachers.
On the day of his lecture, the place was filled with people, and it looked more lively than ever.
Almost the entire academy attended his lecture.
Chu Kuangren sat behind the podium and looked at the tens of thousands of students and teachers beneath him.
He said with a soft smile, "Before we start, let me ask you all a question: What is Dao?"
He was not exactly loud, but his voice rang in every pair of ears at the lecture.
The students and teachers exchanged a quick look at each other.
"The Dao I cultivate is fire-attributed, so to me, Dao is like fire — warm and bright," said one of the students.
"Dao is the sword in my hand. The sword rather breaks than submits. It's indomitable and brave. This is my Dao."
"Dao is the moon, unreachable."
"Dao is the cloud, ever-changing and unpredictable."
The students answered one after another.
Chu Kuangren smiled at the answers. He waved and quietened down the students. "You guys are all right. Everyone has their own Dao, but what you just answered is the Dao you cultivate.
"The Dao that all of the world cultivates actually originates from one Dao. This Dao is the root of all Dao. Today, I will be talking about the root of all Dao."
Chu Kuangren cleared his throat."A Dao that can be comprehended is not a permanent Dao–"
Kaboom!
