"A Saint! A new Saint has appeared between Heaven and Earth!"

"A Saint of our Human Race! They have pioneered a new Saintly Path!"

Some in the world rejoiced. With each new Half-Saint born, the strength of the Human Race would increase, and the birth of a new Saintly Path was something to be celebrated.

However, countless others could not accept it. Because Jiang Xuan was a woman, the thought of bowing to a woman in the future was unbearable to some extremely pedantic individuals.

Some even suffered cracks in their literary hearts and palaces, unable to accept the matter. Especially those who adhered to "rites" to the extreme, following even the dregs of those "rites." Jiang Xuan paid them no mind as their literary hearts and palaces shattered.

In the void, a myriad of lights shone. With the emergence of the Martial Path, Jiang Xuan became a Saint. A pillar of dreamy, colorful divine light soared into the sky, piercing the end of the void, as if supporting the myriad realms!

Within that divine light, countless Saintly Paths seemed to intertwine, countless great powers fused, as if nurturing the greatest life in the myriad realms.

This was the phenomenon of becoming a Saint: divine light soaring to the heavens!

The dreamy and mesmerizing divine light lingered for a long time, as if becoming the only light, the only color, and the only warmth of the Saint Origin Continent. The people of the world looked at that divine light with reverence. It was the light of consecration, the light of the Saintly Path, and the light of the Human Race.

The divine light lasted a long time, gradually fading. Before it could disappear, countless auroras appeared in all directions of the void. This was the second phenomenon: Ten Directions of Aurora.

The auroral light was as thick as dark clouds, covering all directions, not only above but also below. The entire world seemed to be surrounded by clouds and mist.

At first glance, the auroras seemed ordinary, but in the eyes of the Saints, they were like mirrors of the world, with myriad phenomena surging, gathering all the activities of the living beings of the myriad realms.

It was the aurora of all living beings, a vibrant aurora. The aurora continued to surge, becoming thicker and thicker, and everyone vaguely sensed that a behemoth seemed to be gestating within the aurora.

Suddenly, the aurora churned, and an endless colored aurora exploded, as a scarlet sun emerged from the aurora, illuminating the void. The sun's flames were endless, its light boundless. Most terrifyingly, it exuded a rich Saintly might. No matter where anyone was, the sun was directly in front of them.

The third phenomenon, a new sun rising in the east, symbolized the descent of a new Saint, the birth of an extraordinary being in the myriad realms.

But only the Saints could see that the sun was not a true sun, but a collection of power woven from countless Saintly Path principles and powerful forces, a Saintly Path sun containing countless supreme principles.

What shocked the Saints was that there were vague traces of Saintly Path power or great might within, but when they tried to sense it carefully, they found nothing, only able to feel the powerful Saintly might emanating from those powers.

"Three phenomena, each of which is extraordinary. This woman is extraordinary, perhaps she can become a Quasi-Saint!"

A Half-Saint spoke. At the moment of consecration, the myriad realms would send down phenomena. The more phenomena there were, and the more extraordinary they were, the higher the future achievements of the new Saint would be.

But at that moment, the sun suddenly changed from red to white. The originally chaotic and hazy starry sky was suddenly filled with white light.

Then, the white light rushed out of the starry sky where the Saint Origin Continent was located, expanding at an incredible speed, instantly covering the myriad realms!

Countless powerful beings in the myriad realms turned their attention to the Saint Origin Continent, but most of them withdrew their power, because only great figures who had been consecrated as ancestors could create such powerful phenomena.

No one wanted to offend a Saint Ancestor. They all knew the power of such beings, so when they saw such phenomena, they didn't even dare to investigate further.

And this was the fourth phenomenon of Jiang Xuan's consecration: the illumination of the heavens!

Also at the moment when the fourth phenomenon appeared, outside Two Worlds Mountain, the place where the Human Race, the Demon Race, and the Barbarian Race competed for supremacy, there were Half-Saint level beings on all sides. Saints would not usually take action, but on this day, the Wolf Clan Demon Saint, Lang Lu, intended to block the advent of the Martial Path, directly causing the atmosphere of Two Worlds Mountain to become even more solemn, the killing intent almost materializing.

However, at this moment, the light of the heavens fell. This was a phenomenon of heaven and earth, possessing great power, and also following Jiang Xuan's will. As this supreme phenomenon descended, the power gathered by the Demon and Barbarian Saints was instantly disintegrated. Those powerful forces that could only survive in the darkness evaporated instantly like melting snow, leaving behind endless screams.

Most of the Demon and Barbarian Half-Saints swayed, bleeding from the corners of their mouths. More than a dozen Half-Saints retreated repeatedly, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Without saying a word, they turned and left. The remaining Demon and Barbarian Half-Saints looked at the great light in the sky, not daring to confront the Human Race at Two Worlds Mountain, silently retreating.

That was a great power. Before the person even arrived, they suppressed dozens of Half-Saints with a single phenomenon. Although there was no killing, this invisible oppression made the Demon and Barbarian Saints even more terrified.

An unimaginable Saint had appeared among the Human Race!

However, all of this was not over. Above Jing Country, a new phenomenon appeared again. The light of the stars gathered, transforming into a crown, falling on Jiang Xuan's head. At the same time, all the stars trembled, as if mortals faced a king, only with fear.

This was the fifth phenomenon, the Crown of Stars. Wearing this crown meant being the King of Stars, able to control the power of the stars in the universe!

When this phenomenon appeared, starlight shone everywhere, transforming into a rain of light in the myriad realms, slowly falling. All external objects could not block it, all foreign races could not obtain it. Only the Human Race, when the rain of starlight fell on them, would instantly dissolve and merge into their bodies.

In the darkness, they also had a trace of connection with the stars. As long as they obtained the correct cultivation method, they could receive the power of the stars and refine the Martial Path True Essence.

The rain of light lasted for a full incense stick, and every member of the Human Race obtained this power, even those who were at Two Worlds Mountain, or even in strange worlds, obtained the power of the starlight rain.

After that, the sixth phenomenon appeared. Behind her, a figure manifested, over ten thousand feet tall, condensed from the brilliance of the stars of the heavens, overlooking all living beings, gazing at the myriad realms. This was the Star Avatar, completely controlled by Jiang Xuan's will, possessing 80% of the main body's power.

Moreover, this Star Avatar did not need to worry about disappearing, because it was condensed from the power of the stars of the heavens. Even if it was destroyed, the power of the stars would only return to the starry sky, and she could re-condense it at any time.

Immediately afterwards, the seventh phenomenon appeared. Golden lotuses surged between heaven and earth. Jiang Xuan sensed it slightly, revealing a hint of surprise. A ray of light fell from her primordial spirit, merging with the most dazzling and glorious golden lotus among them.

Immediately afterwards, golden lotuses began to bloom in the gathering places of the Human Race in the myriad realms. Chanting sounds echoed in the void. This was the seventh phenomenon, Preaching to the Myriad Realms, saving Jiang Xuan the time to spread the Dharma.

And the chanting sound coming from the golden lotus was the general outline of the Martial Path created by Jiang Xuan - the *Wu Dian* (Martial Canon), which recorded everything about the Martial Path. It was also the most adaptable Martial Path cultivation method, encompassing everything, but all of it was relatively superficial, aimed at guiding the Human Race in their cultivation.

"*Wu Dian*, the Star Martial Path, remarkable."

Within the Saint Academy, even the Eastern Saint, Wang Jinglong, couldn't help but exclaim. In this Martial Path, he saw endless potential, no less than the sum of the current Hundred Schools Saintly Paths, which was amazing.

Dang! Dang! Dang...

In the starry sky of the myriad realms, a series of bell sounds rang, echoing through the myriad realms. Every time the bell rang, the stars would shower a ray of light. In the Saint Origin Continent, the original literary talent was also increasing madly. Even without the Martial Path, this literary talent could increase the Human Race's literary ranks by 30%!

The eighth phenomenon, the Starry Sky of the Myriad Realms Moving, the brilliance of the stars showered on the Human Race's location, the vast power causing endless worlds to tremble. Even the powerhouses among the Demons and Barbarians were now terrified. They seemed to see an supreme expert rising!

And at the next moment, they saw that figure. It was a woman in red, with phoenix-like eyebrows and bright eyes, an exquisite nose, skin like white snow, and a touch of vermillion lips, like a red plum blossom in the snow, aloof and untainted, completely like a celestial maiden descending to the mortal world.

This was the ninth phenomenon, the Illumination of the Myriad Realms. Not only the Human Race, but the Demon Race, the Barbarian Race, the Dragon Race, the Ancient Race... all races in the heavens could see it. This was the Illumination of the Myriad Realms, also known as the Consecration of the Myriad Realms!

Causing the will of the heavens to take notice, illuminating the myriad realms!

...

Above Jing Country, the light was at its brightest, and the figure in the void was also the clearest. When that figure appeared, the Human Race was free from disaster and hardship, and all diseases were healed. This was the blessing of the stars, the light bestowed, celebrating the new Saint of the Human Race!

In the void, Jiang Xuan stood proudly. In the eyes of all living beings, she was a woman, but also a Saint, the first female Saint of the Human Race. The eyes of the ten countries, the great Confucian scholars, the aristocratic families, the myriad races, and all living beings in the world were now focused on her.

"Xuan... Xuan'er?!"

But the most horrified were the Jiang family members who were most familiar with Jiang Xuan, especially her grandfather, the Jing Country's Literary Minister, Jiang Hechuan. He remembered that he would often comfort Jiang Xuan during this time, telling her not to be disappointed because she couldn't participate in the imperial examinations, and not to resent the Saints for this reason.

But he could never have imagined that Jiang Xuan would actually "take a different path." Since the world wouldn't allow her to participate in the imperial examinations and obtain literary ranks, she would directly open up a Saintly Path, and enter the Saint Realm in one fell swoop. This was simply a fantasy!

"Am... am I dreaming?!"

Jiang Hechuan deeply suspected, but the scene reflected in the void could not be fake.

"Is... is that really Sister Xuan?"

"Sister Xuan has become a Saint?!"

The third generation of the Jiang family was also stunned one by one. Even those with extremely high talent for reading were stunned at this moment. They were still worried about the imperial examinations, but Jiang Xuan had already become a Saint!

"Xuan'er... became a Saint?"

Even Jiang Xuan's parents were in a daze at this moment. Her father, Jiang Tianyuan, could also be considered a reading genius. He was now a Jinshi, but he was still a hundred and eight thousand miles away from becoming a Saint.

But now they were told that his daughter, a woman who could not obtain literary talent, an eighteen-year-old girl, had actually become a Saint!

Moreover, she didn't become a Saint through the Hundred Schools Saintly Path, but created her own Saintly Path, becoming a Saint in one fell swoop!

If it weren't for the phenomenon of the Illumination of the Myriad Realms hanging above his head, he would never have believed it!

Even now, he was still deeply suspicious, wondering if he was in a dream.

However, when friends of Jiang Xuan who had seen her on the forum began to inquire, he couldn't hold back. Looking at Jiang Xuan in the void, and then looking at the real news on the forum, he fell into deep thought...

Then, he resolutely began to praise his daughter on the forum, as exaggerated as possible, making Jiang Xuan, who was in the void and sensing everything, blush a little.

"Sigh... let him praise. Father has been worried for so many years, let him relax today." Jiang Xuan sighed in her heart. Jiang Tianyuan had always supported Jiang Xuan's studies. Jiang Xuan had been taught by Jiang Tianyuan since she was a child, from learning to write, to composing poems, to the classics of history. He had always taught her with all his heart.

At the same time, he was also someone who had always wanted women to participate in the imperial examinations, but unfortunately, he was powerless and could only chat with friends on the forum on weekdays, but what use was that?

Until today, when Jiang Xuan became a Saint, even if it wasn't through the Hundred Schools Saintly Path, he was happy in his heart, happy for Jiang Xuan, and also happy for countless women like Jiang Xuan who had talent but no opportunity.

"Saint Jiang, please come to the Saint Academy for a meeting."

After watching for a while, a voice rang in Jiang Xuan's ear. The voice was very old, but it carried an irresistible power.

Jiang Xuan's gaze also turned to the Saint Academy. There, several Half-Saints were already waiting, all wanting to meet Jiang Xuan, this new Saint, and see how strong this new Saintly Path - the Martial Path - was.

"That's right, I also want to have a meeting with everyone."

Taking a step out, heaven and earth reversed, and the power of the Martial Saint was fully revealed, spanning the four poles of heaven and earth. Although the starry sky was vast, there was no place she couldn't go.

It was an inverted high mountain, thick at the top and thin at the bottom, with the mountain tip inserted into the ground, and the top of the mountain was a huge platform, with buildings and pavilions standing on it, surrounded by misty white clouds.

Speaking of the Saint Academy, Jiang Xuan also thought of a story. In the past, Confucius liked Mount Tai, but was unwilling to damage the main peak of Mount Tai, the Jade Emperor Peak, so he took a three-thousand-foot mountain peak from the side and cut it horizontally from the foot of the mountain, carried the mountain peak back to Qufu, and gently tossed it, thus creating the world-famous "Inverted Peak Mountain," and wrote a painting in the air, a painting of ink pavilions hanging in the air.

With a blow, the ink pavilions fell on the top of the Inverted Peak Mountain, forming the Qufu Academy, which is now the Saint Academy.

And in the very center of the Saint Academy, there was an extremely vast hall that could seat 100,000 people, where Confucius lectured, called the Hall of Saints.

Of course, this was also where the Saints made decisions. Every Saintly Council discussed major events related to the life and death of the Human Race. Although in Jiang Xuan's memory, this Saintly Council had almost become something that was opened specifically for someone.

When Jiang Xuan arrived here, there were already several figures in front of the Hall of Saints, each with extraordinary phenomena reflected in their eyes.

There were stars flowing, seasons changing, secluded valleys and mountains, and noisy city streets. From the grasslands of the north to the rainforests of the far south, from the deserts of the far west to the coasts of the East Sea, all kinds of things in the world were in them.

This was a Saint, watching the heavens and the earth, listening to the universe, truly transcending the mortal world, possessing unimaginable power. It was precisely because of their existence that the Human Race could have long-term peace and stability.

Therefore, even though they had never thought of allowing women to take the imperial examinations, Jiang Xuan had no resentment towards them, because unlike those low-ranking scholars, the Saints were responsible for the survival of the Human Race. What they had to consider was how to allow every member of the Human Race to live.

If it weren't for them, the history of the Human Race would have disappeared long ago in the river of history, let alone any women taking the imperial examinations.

"Jiang Xuan of Jing Country greets the Saints."

Jiang Xuan spoke first, neither humble nor arrogant. After all, if they were really compared in strength, she alone could suppress the Saints. What she was doing now was entirely out of respect.
