Chapter 536: Chapter 40: A Glimpse into Causality
A strand of ethereal Dao melody emanated from the jade leaf, permeating Lu Qingshan’s Primordial Spirit, the Dao sounds were faint, seemingly far beyond the sky yet as though near at his ear.
In an instant, Lu Qingshan completely immersed himself in this realm of Dao, this was a legacy of Divine Skills from the millennia-old spiritual tree, mysterious and infinite, yet unpredictable in divine emergence.
In the end, whether a Cultivator would comprehend anything, or what kind of Divine Foresight he could comprehend, was all uncertain, totally depending on one’s own fate.
For him, having touched upon Causality True Intent long ago, this sound of the Dao chimes seemed to carry a different significance, much like celestial music, intoxicating and mesmerizing.
A clear essence poured over him from crown to toe, running through his entire body, making the previously obscure mysteries suddenly somewhat clearer.
That feeling was like drinking a bowl of sour plum soup during the scorching summer.
...
He opened up a new realm, vast and profound.
This was a transformative experience, an even deeper understanding.
Lu Qingshan gradually realized.
“So that’s how it is… when I harvested the Mountain Ghost Fruit, that was the cause; the Mountain Ghost taking my foundation was the effect.”
“Similarly, this effect is also a cause; the Mountain Ghost taking my foundation led to itself being slain by me, being erased from this world, this is the effect.”
“The cause can generate, the effect is what is generated.”
“Where there is cause, there must be effect; where there is effect, there must be cause.”
“This is called the essence of Causality.”
“All things are void; only causality isn’t.”
“Cause and effect, this is Causality True Intent…..” Lu Qingshan’s mind wandered between heaven and earth, his eyes flashing with profound Divine Light.
Then, in a moment, he saw numerous intertwined, visible and invisible, light and dark threads on his own body.
This was the thread of causality.
Being a Sword Cultivator inclined towards slaughter, the numerous threads of causality tangled around him far surpassed others, complex beyond imagination.
Slaughter, after all, carries the heaviest causality.
Many blood-red threads representing slaughter dazzled the mind, in immense quantity.
But beyond these, there were even more golden threads, many times the number of the blood-red ones.
Gold represents the threads of virtue and causality.
Seeing the threads of causality meant he had initially comprehended causality.
Common men fear effects; celestial beings fear causes.
Having comprehended incomplete Causality True Intent during Foundation Establishment, he finally filled the gaps now.
Of course, it was not just this jade leaf that allowed Lu Qingshan to cultivate this profound and elusive Causality True Intent.
The treasure of intent was merely an introduction, just a knock at the door, simply igniting his previous accumulation.
The most important factor in cultivating Causality True Intent was still the result of his talent combined with effort.
The interface timely displayed shining small characters.
“Realization of Intent!… You have comprehended Causality True Intent (Weak)!”
“Your Primordial Spirit has been enhanced! (Divine Sense +100)”
Causality True Intent (Weak): A form of Primordial Intent of divine variety, possessing numerous divine foresights, the currently mastered divine foresight: Premonition.
Lu Qingshan slowly opened his eyes, a divine glare flashing through.
Gazing at his hands, he only felt that all the dust in his heart was cleared, the pearl had gained its luster, and mysteries swirled around in his mind.
Divine foresight, Premonition…
He briefly felt the divine foresight granted by Causality True Intent and came to understand the specific capabilities of this foreseeing.
Foreseeing and predicting are only a letter apart, yet the results they deliver are heaven and earth apart.
Predicting is making reasonable conjectures based on his abundant combat experience.
Since it is a prediction, it cannot be one hundred percent accurate.
Foreseeing, derived from the origin of heaven and earth and following causality, is a divine foresight.
Where there’s a cause there must be an effect; at the very beginning of the opponent’s movement, the mobilizing of Spiritual Power, the hand gestures shown are the cause, what Spell will finally be used is the effect.
All things in the world cannot escape causality; at the moment a cause is formed, the effect is determined.
The divine foresight he currently grasps allows him to know the outcome as soon as the cause takes place.
In Magical Combat, this will undoubtedly be extremely sharp.
Whether the opponent dodges, attacks or defends, and even how they attack, you can anticipate in advance, naturally taking the upper hand.
Additionally, this is merely the weak realm of Causality True Intent.
If the level of intent is elevated further, what kind of divine foresight might he control then?
Lu Qingshan inevitably felt some anticipation in his heart.
“How long have I been in meditation?” Lu Qingshan turned to ask the Western Rat King who was “protecting the Dao” beside him.
“Only ten days,” the Western Rat King tilted his small head, sizing up Lu Qingshan, “Why do I feel that something about you seems to have changed, looking somewhat different than before?”
The small rat demon looked over and saw Lu Qingshan with a relaxed expression, his whole demeanor becoming increasingly ethereal and detached.
“I’ve grown stronger,” Lu Qingshan stated straightforwardly.
“Really?” The Western Rat King widened his eyes in disbelief.
“This is not the end yet,” Lu Qingshan said with a light laugh.
Suppressing the rat demon was a matter of principle.
He then took out a deep purple Life Thunder Fruit from the Jade Box and stuffed it into his mouth.
The Life Thunder Fruit contained immense heavenly and earthly Spiritual Power and extremely violent Thunder Force.
As soon as the Life Thunder Fruit was consumed, it was as if a bolt of thunder entered his body.
The enormous energy immediately burst forth from within Lu Qingshan’s body, rampaging through his meridians and sweeping out.
A sound like muffled thunder endlessly rumbled within him.
A strong presence of thunder permeated his entire body, numbing him all over.
Even his Primordial Spirit was dulled by this presence, becoming much slower.

Within his Primordial Spirit at this moment, it was all filled with the intent of thunder, shielding all his other emotions.
