Chapter 248 Liu Yanchang
Outside the thirty-three heavens, in the endless chaos.
This place is far away from the Three Realms. Without the sun, moon, and stars, there is naturally no light at all, and it is pitch black all around.
Only occasionally a few chaotic divine thunders flashed by, illuminating an area of thousands of miles. One could see endless raging strong winds and turbulent currents raging, tearing the void into huge cracks one after another.
The terrifying suction force pulled in everything around it and tore it apart in an instant.
This kind of place is full of dangers for many Daluo Jinxian.
But for Li Anran, it was as easy as walking on flat ground.
Strong winds and thunder are what he is extremely good at, and the cracks in space cannot even hurt his hair.
The only thing that could be dangerous to him is getting lost!
But, this kind of thing can't happen!
He has learned from Kunpeng's life how to determine his position in chaos and avoid getting lost!
There are no sun, moon, or stars as reference points in the chaos, but the Three Realms themselves exist!
He only needs to use the Three Realms as coordinates to determine his position, and he doesn't have to worry about getting lost in the endless chaos.
Those guests in the Zixiao Palace who were hiding in the chaos also used this method to determine their own position, and then used their great magical powers to build a small world as their own place of practice.
The reason why Kunpeng knew their location was that in order to find the Hongmeng purple energy that Ancestor Hongyun threw into the chaos, Kunpeng ran to the farthest part of the chaos that he could reach over the years.
This is also the reason why Kunpeng was finally certain that the Hongmeng Purple Qi was still on the body of the Hongyun Ancestor.
Li Anran used the technique of turning into a rainbow and flew for more than half an hour according to the location he saw in Kunpeng's life before slowing down.
“This should be it!”
Li Anran's mind moved, and he opened the third eye on his forehead. A ray of golden light burst out, scanning in all directions, and finally stopped on a space crack.
This space crack looks no different from the space cracks that form naturally in chaos, but if you look closely, you can find that although it is constantly appearing and disappearing, its position and shape have not changed.
Obviously, it was fixed here by someone using great magic as the entrance to the small world.
Li Anran performed a trick of invisibility, restrained his breath, and flew over carefully.
He just wanted to capture a former guest of Zixiao Palace and put him in the Heavenly Prison to serve as a tool for him to listen to the Taoist Master's preaching.
The target chosen should be as weak as possible.
However, no matter how weak the guests in Zixiao Palace are, they can’t be that weak.
For example, the Purple Thunder Ancestor he chose.
The last time Kunpeng saw him was 73,000 years ago. At that time, Patriarch Zi Lei had already broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm, and his strength was close to that of the Golden Spirit Mother without using any magic weapon.
Now that seventy thousand years have passed, it is hard to say what the situation is with Ancestor Zi Lei!
Li Anran did not intend to take action directly this time, but came to find out the situation first.
brush!
The moment I entered the space crack , I felt a dizzying sensation of traveling through time and space, and the scene in front of me suddenly changed.
The endless darkness is gone, replaced by dazzling white light and deafening thunder!
In ancient times, people mostly used their own entities to highlight their reality when naming.
Ancestor Zi Lei is no exception.
He was the first thunder between heaven and earth, and when he transformed, dust happened to blow by, and he turned into a golden lion.
The small world he opened up was naturally the most suitable place for him to live, and it was filled with all kinds of lightning and thunder.
The weaker ones include Yin Thunder, Yang Thunder, Fire Thunder, and Wind Thunder, while the stronger ones include Sky Thunder, Nine Skies Divine Thunder, and even Chaos Divine Thunder.
The Chaos Divine Thunder was concentrated on a huge platform in the center of the Small Thousand Worlds.
Ancestor Zi Lei did not transform into a human form, but lay on the ground in his original lion form, with his eyes half open and half closed, and it was unclear whether he was meditating or dozing off.
Under the high platform, there were countless lions kneeling, of all kinds.
However, compared with ordinary lions, the fur of these lions is sharp and shaped like lightning, and there are countless tiny lightning flashes around them.
Nuwa became a saint by creating human beings, and many guests in Zixiao Palace followed her example, hoping to become saints in the same way.
The most famous among them is the ancestor of the Styx, who created the Ashura clan of the Blood Sea.
Ancestor Zi Lei also followed the example of Nuwa and created the Lei Shi clan based on himself.
However, this only earned him a little merit.
Not to mention attaining sainthood, it wouldn't even be enough to make up for the price he paid!
Boom boom boom——
Tiny strands of golden lightning emerged from the heads of these thunder lions and gathered into a golden river, pouring into the body of Purple Thunder Ancestor.
Behind the head of Ancestor Zi Lei, a golden divine ring is particularly conspicuous, and is exactly the same as the one behind the head of the Bodhisattva and Arhat of Buddhism.
Obviously, this is the way to guide Jie Zhunti to become a saint through incense and great aspirations.
It’s just that Patriarch Zi Lei was impatient and treated his lion descendants as consumables, forcibly extracting their faith and worship.
When the energy is drained out, these lions and their descendants will be scared to death.
"It's a waste of Daozu's hard work in training them!" Li Anran shook his head as he watched.
Daozu Hongjun carefully selected so many innate creatures with extraordinary and different talents, and taught them the Three Thousand Great Ways, but did not give them the Hongmeng Purple Qi, nor did he teach them the method of beheading the Three Corpses.
There are only two possibilities.
First, because there is an upper limit to the position of saints in Honghuang, Hongjun Daozu came closely after his disciples.
This is possible, but Li Anran doesn't think it is likely.
Daozu Hongjun was able to emulate the Dao with his own body and educate all living beings in the ancient world. His vision should not be so narrow!
The second possibility, which Li Anran believes is the most likely, is
Daozu Hongjun wants to see these guests in Zixiao Palace embark on their own path to enlightenment!
This also explains why Patriarch Hongjun personally took the throne of Jade Emperor Haotian after the destruction of the ancient demon court.
He wanted the Jade Emperor to continue the journey that Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun had not completed!
However, the guests in Zixiao Palace were obviously unaware of this and just stared at the Six Saints to imitate them, but in the end, they all failed to imitate them!
This is true for the Purple Thunder Ancestor, Kunpeng, the Styx Ancestor, and even the other guests in the Zixiao Palace!
This is most likely the reason why the eighth saint has not appeared in so many years!
Li Anran hid in the dark and observed for a while, and soon confirmed that Old Ancestor Zi Lei's cultivation had only become more advanced in the past 70,000 years, and there had been no substantial breakthrough.
Its strength is at best on par with Zhao Gongming. If it really fights hard, it may not even be a match for Zhao Gongming who has the Luobao Gold in his hand.
"I am not afraid of his thunder magic, so it shouldn't be difficult for me to defeat him. But if he is determined to escape, I can't stop him alone. I have to go back and call my second brother and Nezha to help me, and then there shouldn't be any problem."
Li Anran was thinking, when suddenly his heart moved. It turned out that the incarnation in the Heavenly Prison saw the communication sandalwood lit by Long Si.
"Something happened to my third sister." Li Anran was not surprised.
Ever since Yao Ji was rescued by Yang Jian, the Three Holy Mothers has become Yang Jian's only weakness.
He had expected that someone would use the Three Holy Mothers to deal with Yang Jian!
That was why he reminded San Sheng Mu and Long Si again to tell him and Yang Jian if there was anything.
"Will it be Liu Yanchang again this time?" Li Anran sneered.
In the original time and space, the story of the Lotus Lantern takes place after the monkey becomes the Fighting Buddha and before Wu Tian subverts the Three Realms.
Roughly speaking, it is the current time period.
However, because of his appearance, this world has become completely different from the original time and space!
If in this situation, the same thing as in the original time and space can still happen, then someone must be playing tricks in secret!
"Let's go and deal with the matter with my third sister first. I'll then get my second brother Nezha to help us deal with this lion!"
Li Anran made a decision quickly, used the Rainbow Transformation Technique, and flew towards Huashan.
On the other side, after Long Si lit the message sandalwood, he was still worried about the Third Holy Mother.
After waiting for a while and seeing that Li Anran still didn't show up, Long Si became a little anxious and flew towards Huashan Villa on a cloud.
Huashan Villa is not too far from the Three Holy Mothers Temple.
That is, there are two hills between them.
The biggest difference between the two is that the Three Holy Mothers Hall is open to everyone, while the Huashan Villa is concealed by Yang Jian's magic, so ordinary mortal monks cannot find it even if they pass by.
"Third sister?"
When Long Si was halfway through his flight, he suddenly saw a cloud of auspiciousness flying towards him in the distance. Looking closely, he saw that the person riding the cloud was none other than the Third Holy Mother.
However, the Third Holy Mother was no longer wearing the colorful phoenix feather robe, but an ordinary dress.
"Did the third sister just go back to the villa to change clothes?" Long Si was stunned.
At this moment, the Third Holy Mother suddenly jumped down from the clouds and flew rapidly downwards.
Long Si looked in the direction where the Three Holy Mothers had fallen, and saw a man dressed as a scholar falling down from the cliff of Huashan Mountain below because the road was slippery due to rain.
Huashan Mountain is steep and the road is difficult to navigate. Believers or tourists who go up the mountain to worship often slip and fall.
Both the Third Holy Mother and Long Si have done this kind of thing of saving people many times.
"Am I really overthinking it? Is there nothing wrong with my third sister?"
Long Si regretted that he did not understand the situation clearly, so he hurriedly lit sandalwood and asked Li Anran for help.
Before Long Si could think about it, she saw the Third Holy Mother holding the scholar and flying towards Huashan Villa. She hurriedly chased after them and shouted, "Third sister!"
Then he saw that the scholar's face was covered in blood and he was unconscious, as if he had hit his head while falling.
"Fourth sister, you came just in time." The Third Holy Mother was delighted and said, "This scholar has a big hole in his head. The injury is... Hmm? Big Brother Li? Why are you here?"
As the Third Holy Mother was speaking, she saw a golden light flying from the sky. It was Li Anran who had rushed back from the chaos.
Seeing Li Anran in a hurry, Long Si felt a little ashamed and was about to apologize when Li Anran's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
"Fourth Princess, this time it's all thanks to you. There's something wrong with Third Sister. Don't tell her about it yet. Wait until I find out who's behind it."
What!?
Long Si was shocked. He never expected that something really happened to the Third Holy Mother!
While Li Anran was transmitting the message, he said, "There have been frequent monsters causing trouble in the mortal world recently. Your second brother is short of manpower, and I just happened to be free, so I came down to the mortal world to stretch my muscles. I passed by Huashan and came to see you."
He pointed at the scholar in the arms of the Third Holy Mother and asked, "What's going on?"
The Third Holy Mother said, "He must be a scholar who went up the mountain to play and accidentally fell down. I happened to pass by and saved him. Second brother, let's not talk about this for now. He is seriously injured. Let's go back to the villa first and find some medicine for him."
"Don't bother."
Li Anran stretched out his hand and waved. A golden light swept up the scholar and landed on a hill nearby.
As he landed, the scholar's injuries had recovered and he slowly opened his eyes.
"You, you are gods? You saved me?"
The scholar looked at the three people standing on the clouds and reacted normally. He was startled at first, then he knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Liu Yanchang thanks the three gods for saving his life."
It’s really Liu Yanchang!
A cold light flashed across Li Anran's eyes, and murderous intent surged.
——If anyone’s good cabbage is taken away by a yellow-haired boy, the parents will want to kill the yellow-haired boy!
He just happened to be able to do it!
Liu Yanchang was completely unaware. When his eyes fell on the Third Holy Mother, he was visibly stunned, with a flash of surprise and admiration in his eyes.
"Can the three gods tell Yanchang your names? Yanchang will build a shrine for the three gods at home and worship them day and night." When Liu Yanchang said this, his eyes were fixed on the Three Holy Mothers, and Sima Zhao's intentions were obvious.
Not to mention Li Anran, even Long Si had already seen through it.
Third sister just saved your life, and you dare to have such a blasphemous heart!
It’s really hateful!
A surge of anger suddenly rose in Long Si's heart.
She had assisted the Three Holy Mothers in Huashan for many years and had seen all kinds of people, but Liu Yanchang was so lustful after just escaping death, and to the immortal who saved him!
This is the first time I’ve seen Long Sihai!
If she hadn't remembered that Li Anran had just told her not to act rashly, she would have taught this ignorant dog a lesson!
At this moment, the Third Holy Mother snorted coldly and said, "You scholar, you just came out of my temple, how come you don't recognize me?"
"Third sister!" Long Si looked at the Third Holy Mother in disbelief.
The Third Holy Mother seemed to be angry, but she answered Liu Yanchang's question. She not only revealed her identity but even told him about her temple!
"Fourth sister, what's wrong?" The Third Holy Mother looked confused.
"Nothing... nothing." Long Si was sure that something really happened to the Third Holy Mother, and it was most likely related to Liu Yanchang in front of him.
Liu Yanchang said, "It turned out to be the Third Holy Mother and the Fourth Dragon Mother in person! The stone statues in the hall are not even a fraction as good as the two goddesses! Yanchang didn't recognize them just now, please forgive me, the two goddesses!"
This evil creature!
Long Si's face turned pale and he even wanted to kill someone.
Liu Yanchang's words were extremely frivolous and disrespectful not only to the two gods, but also to ordinary mortal women.
However, the Third Holy Mother seemed to be completely unaware of this, and even seemed a little happy. She smiled and said, "You are good at talking! I will let you off this time!"
Liu Yanchang became even more excited and said, "Your Majesty is not only as beautiful as a fairy, no, Your Majesty is actually..."
Before he could finish his words, he collapsed to the ground with a thud, his face full of fear and feces and urine flowing everywhere.
"Brother Li, what are you doing?"
The Third Holy Mother was stunned at first, then she realized what was going on and glared at Li Anran angrily: "He is just a mortal! How could you do this to him!"
Li Anran didn't explain anything, just said: "Third sister, we should go."
"Brother Li!"
The Third Holy Mother wanted to say something more, but seeing Li Anran's unquestionable gaze, she did not dare to speak again. She could only snort angrily, and without waiting for Li Anran and Long Si, she flew directly to Huashan Villa.
When he left, he looked back at Liu Yanchang, feeling reluctant.
Long Si still felt unsatisfied: "Prison God, are we just going to let him go like this?"
Li Anran transmitted his voice: "This Liu Yanchang is just a pawn. Even if we kill him today, there will be Li Yanchang and Wang Yanchang tomorrow. Finding out the person behind this is the key. If you want to teach him a lesson, you will have plenty of opportunities in the future."
