Name: I Watch the New Heavens from My Secluded Temple, Waiting for the World to Be Restored
Author: An Wen Ye

Synopsis

Cultivation was spoken of in the past, manifested in the present, and would shine gloriously in the future!

“Master, what true arts are there to seek in this world?”

“Good sir, aren't the true arts of this world the nine years of compulsory education you've received? Individuals can use it to leap over the dragon's gate and change their fate. The nation can use it to develop, transform the world, drive out invaders, and bring about the rejuvenation of the people. That's the true art of this world!”

“You should know that times have changed. What immortals, ghosts, gods, Buddhas, spells, or heavenly secrets are there? I'm just a nostalgic old Taoist. My master passed away and left this little temple and its legacy with no one to inherit them. Otherwise, I'd have gone down the mountain long ago to plunge into the endless bustle of the mortal world!”

With that, under the ghost-struck stares of the tourists climbing the mountain, he took one step and vanished, leaving a trail of afterimages behind him.
