Chapter 111 True Heart Pearl
"Master, what are you doing? Why are you covering Qianyuan Mountain with the Nine Dragons Divine Fire?"
Nezha was unaware of the plans made by the top leaders of the Three Realms to deal with the catastrophe. He first asked Taiyi Zhenren why he blocked Qianyuan Mountain, and then he told Zhang Jue to smash the List of Gods with the Divine Whip and restore the freedom of all the disciples of Jiejiao.
Taiyi Zhenren already knew all this, and casually made up an excuse: "Master already knows about this. You don't have to worry about it, it's just destiny. When the Conferred Gods calamity came, the three religions of Chan, Jie and Ren signed the Conferred Gods List in order to stabilize the order of the three realms and make everything run in an orderly manner. Now that ten thousand years have passed, it is time for them to leave the Conferred Gods List and return to freedom."
He did not tell Nezha the truth.
Just as Yang Jian said, Nezha has a strong personality. He was able to cut off his flesh to repay his mother and cut off his bones to repay his father in the past. Now he may not be unwilling to break with his master for the sake of all human beings in the world.
Seeing that Taiyi Zhenren spoke so calmly, Nezha felt relieved. He then brought up the matter of Li Anran and asked Taiyi Zhenren to help Li Anran.
Taiyi Zhenren's heart moved, and he remembered that Yang Jian had said before that he wanted him to accept Li Anran into the Xuanmen.
Although he didn't know Li Anran very well, he knew that Li Anran must be extraordinary since he was valued by Yang Jian and Nezha and could make Patriarch Hongyun want to accept him as his disciple.
"This is an easy matter." Taiyi Zhenren immediately summoned Jinxia Tongzi and ordered him to go to Lishan to bring a letter to Wudang Shengmu, detailing the matter of Yang Jian and Li Anran.
"Thank you, Master!" Nezha was overjoyed.
He stayed in the Golden Light Cave and chatted with Taiyi Zhenren about the relationship between master and disciple for a while, then returned to heaven and told Li Anran about this matter.
Li Anran breathed a sigh of relief, but he also knew that if you lean on the mountain, the mountain will fall.
He did not slack off at all, and practiced diligently every day, even more diligently than before.
Yang Jian knew the whole truth, but did not tell Nezha and Li Anran.
Even on the surface, he and Nezha Li Anran are still in a state of rupture.
Boss Kang and his men even came to see Li Anran once for this and persuaded Li Anran to admit his mistake to Yang Jian.
But, Li Anran refused.
In addition, Yang Jian strictly ordered them not to go to Li Anran unless necessary. The friendship between the two sides still existed, but the relationship had become much more distant.
Yang Jian secretly met with Li Anran and mainly talked about two things.
The first was to let Li Anran keep a distance from him on the surface, so that if anything happened in the future, both parties could take care of each other.
Out of caution, he would no longer visit Li Anran privately.
Second, it was to let Li Anran not worry about Jiejiao and just focus on being the warden of his duties as a god.
The Investiture of the Gods was destroyed, and all the disciples of Jiejiao regained their freedom and went down to earth to join the Holy Mother Wu Dang.
This also caused the power of Jiejiao in the Heavenly Palace to plummet. It would be very difficult for them to go to heaven in the future, let alone cause trouble for Li Anran.
Since then, Yang Jian never looked for Li Anran in private again.
All interactions between the two sides are in official matters.
Li Anran's life also returned to normal.
Every day, he practiced all the time. Occasionally, he would escort a few prisoners to check their life stories, or drink with Nezha and practice martial arts.
Compared with the life in the previous life, these days seem to be monotonous, but cultivation itself is something that can make people devote themselves to it wholeheartedly.
Li Anran didn't feel bored, but rather felt very fulfilled.
Especially when seeing the experience points increase every day, I have more motivation to practice!
The only thing that made him a little depressed was that the Buddhist sect took the Monkey King away, saying that the Monkey King had a connection with Lingshan.
This meant that Li Anran's already limited leek field lost a big leek.
Fortunately, he was lucky enough to draw the Monkey King's Agility!
The Monkey King is called the Great Sage of Ventilation because he is agile, elusive and erratic.
The Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong (Thirty-Six Changes of Tiangang) practiced by Li Anran follows the "big" route, with great ingenuity and power.
Now that he has the agility of the Great Sage of Ventilation, his physical body has almost no shortcomings and his strength has greatly increased.
With the same level of cultivation, even if Nezha displayed his three heads and six arms, he would no longer be his match.
This shocked and embarrassed Nezha so much that he began to practice diligently.
However, compared to practicing, he spent more time going down to the mortal world with Li Jing to subdue demons and eliminate monsters.
Since Yang Jian obtained the power to examine all the immortals, his official duties have become busier than before, and countless immortals come in and out of the Temple of Justice every day.
There are those who want to curry favor with Yang Jian, those who want to make progress and show themselves, and there are countless people like this.
Yang Jian used to have time to go down to earth and catch monsters himself, but now he is simply unable to do so.
The Meishan brothers are a little bit weaker.
Therefore, the task of exorcising demons and monsters was handed over to Li Jing, the demon-conquering general.
This greatly improved Li Jing's reputation in the Heavenly Palace, and some gods gathered around him.
On the other hand, although the disciples of Jiejiao had escaped from the List of Gods and their cultivation was no longer restricted, they only had a wisp of soul left. It was very difficult for them to improve their cultivation, and it was completely impossible for them to achieve the state of Hunyuan.
As a result, some determined disciples of the Jiejiao chose to reincarnate and practice again.
Because the human race is the protagonist of heaven and earth, they all chose to reincarnate as humans.
This resulted in the following sixty years being a time when the southern continent was filled with brilliant generals and literary talent!
That’s right, we are talking about the Three Kingdoms!
Li Anran was originally full of expectations for the Three Kingdoms, but after learning about this, he felt as if he had eaten a fly and felt extremely uncomfortable.
With so many disciples of Jiejiao reincarnated as humans, the fortune of the human race, which had been severely deteriorating due to the Zhang Jue incident, suddenly soared.
However, this surge is not a good thing!
It is more like adding fuel to the fire and drinking poison to quench thirst. After a short period of burst of light, there will be a greater decline!
This is indeed the case!
The reincarnated bodies of these Jiejiao disciples caused a huge disturbance in Jambu Continent, causing only one in ten humans in the Continent, which had already suffered heavy casualties, to survive. The fortunes of the human race declined further!
Also, because the Nine Cauldrons were in a different position and dragon energy was scattered, many demons and monsters sneaked into Jambu Continent and colluded with the barbarian tribes on the border of Jambu Continent, causing Jambu Continent to enter an unprecedented dark age.
The number of people in the Southern Continent has dropped from only one in ten to only one in a hundred!
It can be said that "bones are exposed in the wild, and no roosters crow for thousands of miles." It is shocking!
As the god of justice, Yang Jian knew everything about the three realms. He also saw the tragic situation in the Southern Continent and his anger grew stronger.
However, he also knew that this was caused by the joint efforts of the gods and Buddhas of the three realms, and he could not shake it at all now!
Yang Jian buried all his anger in his heart, and became more and more cold-blooded and ruthless. He acted more cruelly and ruthlessly, and his methods were no longer bound by the laws and regulations of heaven.
Any god who dares to be his enemy and pose a threat to his status will be struck by him without mercy.
After a period of time, no god in the entire heaven dared to confront Yang Jian head-on.
Yang Jian truly became the god of justice, second only to the emperor and above countless others, with unparalleled power, but this also left him without any friends.
Even the Meishan brothers became more respectful and reserved in their attitude towards him, more like subordinates than friends and brothers.
In addition to these reincarnated disciples of the Jiejiao, there are also a few with superior means, such as the Yunxiao sisters, Zhao Gongming, the Golden Spirit Mother, Luo Xuan, etc., who used great magical powers and spells to reshape their bodies.
Although the new body is far from comparable to their original one, it saves them the trouble of reincarnation. They only need to continue to hone and practice, and sooner or later they will be able to return to their heyday.
The remaining disciples of the Jiejiao were unwilling to give up the cultivation they had worked so hard for so many years, but they had no means to rebuild their bodies.
So, he chose to take over the bodies of other living beings.
The advantage of doing this is that it will become much easier to improve your cultivation, but because the body and the soul cannot be completely in harmony, it will never be possible to achieve the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head and the Five Qis Returning to the Origin, and achieve the Daluo realm.
——In the eyes of these Jiejiao disciples, this is not a big problem!
Jiejiao, no, it should be from the beginning of the world to the present day, there are countless creatures on the prehistoric land, how many of them can achieve the Daluo Dao?
Qiu Yin is one of them!
The reason he didn't want to reincarnate was not just because he was reluctant to give up his cultivation, but more because he wanted to seek revenge on Li Anran and Nezha!
To this end, he deliberately took over the body of a Qushan (earthworm) with natural fire attributes, and asked Luo Xuan for advice on fire magic, preparing to refine a set of fire magic weapons to restrain Nezha's lotus body.
As for Li Anran, he was prepared to use his soul-capturing red bead to deal with him.
Qiu Yin was busy refining magic weapons, Li Anran was busy practicing, Nezha was busy subduing demons, and Yang Jian was busy examining the merits and demerits of all the gods.
Everyone is busy with their own things.
The three realms became unexpectedly peaceful.
Time flies by unknowingly.
One hundred and seventy years passed in a flash.
On this day, Li Anran did not practice as usual, but sat cross-legged in the quiet room, placed the treasure bag in front of him, and adjusted himself to the best condition.
Then, he put all his energy into the treasure bag.
Buzz!
In an instant, countless colorful rays of light emanated from the treasure bag, like ripples, illuminating the entire quiet room.
Li Anran took out the dragon ball he got from Princess Halloween and put it into the brocade bag.
Afterwards, he closed his eyes and transferred his idea of the "Heart-Questioning Pearl" into the treasure bag.
"Changes in micro-expressions, mood swings, heart rate changes, skin and body changes..."
Buzz!
The treasure bag shone even brighter, and the countless rays of light within it flowed and intertwined on the dragon ball, engraving mysterious and indescribable Taoist patterns into it.
This process lasted about half an hour.
The dragon ball flew out from the treasure bag, hovering in the air and spinning continuously.
The red and green lights changed alternately, and after several times, they converged and returned to calm.
Li Anran didn't care about the treasure bag and the dragon ball. After pouring all his energy and ideas about the heart-searching bead into the treasure bag, he quickly opened the panel of the Book of Punishment.
[Name: Li Anran]
[Cultivation: Xuanxian (ninth level)]
[Kung Fu: Nine-transformation Yuan Gong (level 8), Yimu Jue (level 5), Hehuan (level 7)]
[Spells: Soul Confinement and General Dispatching (Level 7), Nine Heavens Divine Thunder (Level 7), Samadhi True Fire (Level 5), Samadhi Divine Wind (Level 5)...]
[Available experience points: 101,018,200,000]
"Raise your cultivation to the Golden Immortal realm!"
Li Anran's mind moved.
The available experience points were instantly reduced by 100 billion.
Countless golden lights flew out from the attribute panel on the right and landed on the character portrait on the left.
An indescribable mysterious feeling enveloped the whole body, and the spirit, energy and vitality surged at an extremely exaggerated speed, and because of the factors of the Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong, they continued to merge into one.
One day, two days, three days...
After a full forty-nine days, the spirit, which had been surging like a volcanic eruption, gradually returned to calm.
Li Anran opened his eyes, and there was a bright light in his eyes, which then quickly disappeared and returned to the deep darkness like the starry sky. The purple light that was surging around him also converged into his body.
Li Anran's comprehension of the Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong has reached the maximum level, and his control over his body has long reached the limit.
Before he attains the state of Hun Yuan, his cultivation would not increase so dramatically that his body would lose control.
"Finally a Golden Immortal!"
A smile appeared on Li Anran's lips.
A full one hundred and seventy-three years!
He practiced the Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong day and night, plus the experience gained from the prisoners every day!
He finally accumulated enough experience points to break through to the Golden Immortal realm!
And it’s different from ever before!
This time he was able to break through, and the experience points he gained from his own hard work and the experience points he gained from the prisoners accounted for basically half and half.
This is also related to the fact that the Three Realms have been too peaceful in recent years and the number of prisoners in the Heavenly Prison is too small.
Li Anran reached out and took the Heart-Searching Pearl in front of him. He checked it with his spiritual sense and was very satisfied: "The magic weapon refined by the Hundred Treasures Bag is so reliable! It is exactly the same as I imagined!"
This is the ninth time he has used the Treasure Bag to refine a magic weapon!
Before each breakthrough to a small realm, he would use all his energy to refine a magic weapon, and then use the cultivation breakthrough system to refresh his status to recover.
These magic weapons condense all his energy and spirit. Although their durability is limited, they are extremely powerful. They can be said to be his biggest !
It also, to a large extent, made up for his shortcomings of being mediocre and having no magic weapons.
Li Anran put away the treasure bag and the bead of conscience, stood up and walked out.
Outside the door, immortal officials, divine officials, heavenly soldiers and generals were already waiting.
As soon as he saw Li Anran coming out, the red-robed divine official hurriedly stepped forward and presented an order with both hands: "Sir, next month will be the time for the Heavenly Court's Jiazi assessment."
"According to past practice, you have to go and inspect the prisons in the lower world. I have already asked His Majesty for permission on your behalf. I wonder when you will come down to the mortal world on time?"
"No hurry, let's talk about it in a few days."
Li Anran took Yu Ling and instructed, "Go to Yunlou Palace now and ask the Great God of the Three Altars and Sea Assembly to come over. Tell him that I have prepared what he wants."
