In the spring of year 6823 of the New Calendar, Lu Xuan, an unregistered resident of the Federation, hid outside a high school classroom and secretly learned a Cultivation Skill, embarking on the path of Cultivation.

On the same day, he returned home and had a dream, just as he always did. In the dream, he was in the Guardian Storage Room during the Spring and Autumn Period in Chinese history（770-481 BCE）, and the current Keeper of the Records was named Li Er, also known as Laozi.

Even later, someone unearthed a roll of bamboo slips from the ground, on which an event was recorded.

"What I am about to say is not a mandatory requirement. You can even consider it a request, if you wish."


Lu Xuan's expression changed. He struggled to his feet and bowed.

"I mean, to open the gates of your own mountain and establish a Daoist Lineage." The Old Master said. "Establish a Daoist Lineage, and as for who to revere... revere yourself, and the Supreme Profound Clarity. That will suffice."


Lu Xuan was bewildered. 'Establish... establish a Daoist Lineage??'


"Teacher, my Cultivation is still a bit low. This... this might be..."
