Chapter 179 The True Nature Returns to Tranquility, All Things Remain at Peace

After time leaves no trace and years leave no mark, the ancient city of Chang'an reaches its final state—the true nature returns to tranquility, and all things are eternally at peace.

The return to tranquility is not emptiness or extinction, but rather the return of the original, pure, and true nature of all living beings to their most primal, pure, and peaceful state, free from thought, desire, longing, attachment, and delusion, leaving only existence itself, companionship itself, warmth itself, and peace itself.

The eternal peace of all things is not static or solidified, but rather a state in which all things, both inside and outside the home, in the heavens and earth, in all scenes, and in all living beings, are forever in a state of stability, peace, completeness, and joy, without wavering, stillness, disturbance, chaos, sorrow, or suffering, leaving only the constant itself, eternity itself, reunion itself, and peace itself.

At this moment, Qin Lintian's Dao heart, original heart, and initial heart completely returned to stillness.

He no longer thought about "protection," because there was nothing to worry about;

We no longer think about "reunion," because we are never truly apart;

We no longer contemplate "eternity," because it is inherently immortal;

No longer think about "home", because we are already at home.

His existence is one of stillness and constant illumination, illumination and constant stillness;

Immovable yet eternally at peace; inactive yet eternally eternal.

The true nature of family members also faded away.

They no longer crave stability, because they are already in a state of stability;

No longer do we yearn for warmth, for we are already surrounded by it;

No longer seeking happiness, for happiness is already present;

No longer clinging to the idea of staying together, because we were already together all along.

All spirits return to stillness, all spiritual essence returns to stillness, the essence of heaven and earth returns to stillness.

The whole world was enveloped in an utterly gentle, tranquil, and peaceful silence.

This is not deathly silence.

Instead, it is a place full of vitality;

Not numbness,

Rather, it is a clear and perfect stillness;

This is not the end.

It is not a beginning, but an eternal one.

The park remains as it was before:

The stream murmurs, the wind chimes tinkle, the herbs are glistening with dew, the lamplight is warm, the spring gushes forth, the fruits are fragrant, family members sit idly, and children play.

Everything is in motion, everything is making a sound, everything is full of life, yet it exists in the deepest stillness and tranquility.

It moves without moving, and remains still without remaining still;

It is born without being born, and it dies without dying;

Peace without peace, constancy without constancy.

In the mundane world, the true nature of life returns to tranquility, and all things remain at peace.

The people live in peace and contentment, free from worries and desires;

The mountains and rivers are tranquil and beautiful, neither withering nor flourishing, neither damaged nor destroyed;

The sun and moon shine brightly, neither rising nor setting, neither dark nor bright;

Heaven and earth are peaceful and orderly, free from disasters, chaos, upheaval, and collapse.

The entire universe, because of the eternal tranquility of Chang'an's original mind, has entered the ultimate state of eternal permanence, eternal peace, and eternal perfection.

No more stories can happen.

There is no realm that can be broken through.

There is nothing more beautiful to add.

There is no perfection that can surpass.

Because everything has reached its peak;

Everything is perfect;

Everything has become eternally unchanged.

Qin Lintian stood side by side with his family on the banks of the Lingxi River, bathed in the moonlight and sunlight, their spiritual light shining alongside heaven and earth.

No one spoke.

No one moved.

No one thought about it.

Only the tranquility of returning to one's true self

Only the perfect harmony of all things.

The wind blows gently.

The water flows gently.

The light shines softly.

My heart is at peace.

This is the final, deepest, and most tranquil state of Chang'an before the grand finale.

Silence, speechlessness, thoughtlessness, desirelessness

Only Heng'an, only Yongheng, only reunion, only Chang'an.
