Volume 3: The World of the Lotus Lantern Chapter 44: Refining the Immortal Sword and causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace!
As his cultivation level improved, Jiale's aura began to rise, and soon spread throughout the entire Jin'ao Island.
Feeling this kind of pressure, all the Shangqing disciples knew that Jiale had completed a breakthrough. All three flowers had blossomed to the twelfth level. This was something that their generation of disciples could not even imagine. After all, the world at this time was different from that of ancient times. The spiritual energy was not as abundant as in ancient times, and resources were also insufficient. It was difficult to support a cultivator to blossom to the twelfth level.
But Jiale has done it. I can’t say it is unprecedented, but it is probably a sure thing that will never be surpassed.
After the training was over, Jiale did not come out immediately.
The golden flower bloomed, but Jiale's soul had not yet escaped from the river of destiny.
The so-called assimilation risk has not been eliminated.
The Yin-Yang Coffin emitted a faint light, and the Kunlun Mirror was trying to wake Jiale up at this moment, but Jiale was immersed in the comprehension of the Tao and could not extricate himself.
Looking closely, Jiale's soul was actually heading towards the depths of the river of destiny.
In a trance, Jiale seemed to see a pair of eyes, scarlet eyes, looking at Jiale quietly, which made Jiale feel a warning in his heart. At the moment when the warning appeared, Jiale finally woke up from that state.
Feeling the oppression of the long river of fate, looking at where you are.
Jiale was also a little scared. If he had been a little later, he would have died. Fortunately, his luck was not bad, so he could give him a warning. Otherwise, he would have been finished.
Yunxiao and Jiale said that there was a great terror at the end of the long river of destiny. Even the Taoist Shangqing did not dare to set foot there, let alone him. It was definitely a tomb-like existence.
The soul escaped from the Long River of Destiny and took a last look. This was his first time entering the Long River of Destiny. It would not be easy to enter again in the future, and the next time would probably take a long time.
Inside the Yin-Yang Palace, Jia Le slowly ended his practice and completely restrained his breath.
It must be said that after the breakthrough, Jiale felt that he had become much stronger. When he fought with Xingtian before, even though Jiale had been improving all the way and had many magic weapons and energy beads to support him, he could still fight Xingtian quite well. However, Jiale knew that the odds between him and Xingtian were at most 190-190, and he would almost certainly die in a life-and-death battle.
But this time it’s different. Not to mention defeating Xing Tian, but a 50-50 chance of winning is still possible, and that’s enough.
Who is Xing Tian? He is the God of War of the Three Realms. He is much more valuable than the God of War in Heaven. If one can fight Xing Tian on equal terms, he can almost stand at the top of the Three Realms. Even the Jade Emperor is not afraid of him.
But the loss is also quite large. Looking at the few dozen energy beads left in the Kunlun Mirror, he sighed in his heart that Jiuyou would have to continue to work hard.
Energy beads above the Golden Immortal level are not easy to obtain, and with his status, many people find it difficult to get them.
For those below the Golden Immortal level, if they want to gain something, they have to count by the thousands and tens of thousands. Such killing is not in line with Jiale's style, so this matter has to be done by Jiuyou, the serious devil. Apart from anything else, it is a professional match. If he does not kill for a day, he might be accused of not doing his job properly. So professional matters should be left to professionals. As for the cause and effect karma, Jiuyou did it, and it has nothing to do with Jiale.
After walking out of the Yin-Yang Palace, Jiale looked at the Shangqing disciples in front of him with a dazed look in his eyes.
I vaguely remembered that the last time I broke through to the middle stage of the Golden Immortal, I saw this scene when I left the Yin Yang Palace. However, this time everyone seemed to be much calmer, and it seemed that they really accepted his genius.
"Jingchun, your master is calling you over."
Ge Xuan's figure appeared, and Jia Le hurriedly followed after hearing what he said.
Inside the Biyou Palace, the Golden Spirit Mother was studying the Zhuxian Formation diagram. At this moment, she only had three of the four swords in her hands, and the Xianjian Sword was still in Jiale's hands and had not been taken back.
"Master, Jingchun is here."
The Golden Spirit Mother looked at Jia Le who came in and waved.
"Jingchun, do you know the Four Swords of Zhu Xian?"
The Four Swords of Zhu Xian!
In these three realms, there are probably not many people who don’t know the Four Swords of Zhu Xian.
"Grandmaster, the Four Swords of Immortal Execution are the most precious treasures of our Shangqing lineage. They are incomparable in killing. I naturally know that. Previously, I was able to hold my ground against Xing Tian just because I was holding the Xianxian Sword, one of the Four Swords of Immortal Execution."
As he spoke, Jiale handed over the Xian-Zhan Sword, but Holy Mother Jin Ling not only did not take the Xian-Zhu Swords, but instead handed over the other three swords and the Xian-Zhu Formation Diagram in her hand.
“Even if the Four Swords of Zhu Xian are taken out individually, they are all top-grade innate magic weapons. The combination of the four swords is even more of a top-grade innate magic weapon. After Master refined the Zhu Xian formation diagram and set up the Zhu Xian sword formation, the grade of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian has been infinitely raised. There is a trend of surpassing the top-grade innate magic weapons. However, not everyone can refine and use such a magic weapon.
During that catastrophe, Master asked me and the other four direct disciples to each hold a sword because our limit was there. If we used four swords at the same time and presided over the sword formation, the murderous aura would backfire and we might be injured by the Four Swords of Zhu Xian. Although the Four Swords of Zhu Xian have been taken back by us now, it is not so easy to refine and use them.
I have been trying to refine it these days, but every time at the critical moment, I would be distracted and have to stop.
If we use it forcefully, we may die. Now I know how powerful the Four Swords of Immortal Execution are. If our master had not refined them and lent them to us, we would have been unable to control them. "
Hmm! There is actually such a saying.
However, when Jiale used the Xianjian Sword before, he didn't seem to feel any particular discomfort. Although it was full of murderous aura, in Jiale's opinion, it had only benefits and no disadvantages.
As if she had seen through Jiale's thoughts, the Golden Spirit Mother continued.
"To fully refine the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, there are only three possibilities.
The first is to give it to four people to refine separately, with each holding a sword. In this way , although the risk of backlash is still high, it is within a controllable range.
The second option is to wait for someone among us to break through the limit and reach above the Golden Immortal level, and then refine and use it, and we will be safe.
The third type is a person who possesses a higher level of spiritual treasure, which has the effect of suppressing luck and can offset the effects of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian. "
Um!
Jiale's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. The second possibility was simply a delusion in the short term.
As for the third possibility, Jiale's first reaction was that the fact that he was carrying the Kunlun Mirror had been discovered, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed a little impossible. At most, the Golden Spirit Mother guessed that Jiale might be carrying some powerful treasure, but she was not very sure.
The first method is quite feasible.
Looking at the Four Swords of Zhu Xian in his hand, Jia Le felt it carefully and found that he was really not affected by the murderous aura. Could it be the effect of Kunlun Mirror?
"Master, do you want to choose the first option?"
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit shook her head and said, "I want you to give it a try. You can first take the Four Swords of Zhu Xian back to refine them. You have extraordinary luck. Even I, who now controls the Shangqing lineage, cannot compare with you. Especially some time ago, your luck suddenly experienced an explosive growth. Although it was covered by luck, I still caught a trace of your energy.
I won't ask you the reason. There is a precious light on your body. When you broke through, I borrowed the luck of Shangqing and felt something. Maybe it will be helpful for refining the Four Swords of Zhu Xian. I won't ask you about these. It's just that your appearance has given us a possibility. The power of refining it by four people and refining it by one person is completely different.
But I just think you have a better chance. From the fact that you can fight Xing Tian in the middle stage of the Golden Immortal, it can be seen that your current strength is probably not worse than mine. But you still need to do it within your ability. If you feel that you are unable to do it, stop in time. We can still try the first method. "
Jiale was also somewhat shocked when he heard this.
Sure enough, as the world level increases, the people encountered become more and more complicated. The Kunlun Mirror will not be discovered in the low-level world, but when it reaches the small world and manifests its power, it will inevitably be discovered by some people, like the Golden Spirit Mother. Fortunately, in the entire Three Realms, there are not many people who can compare with the Golden Spirit Mother. It is estimated that there are only the Jade Emperor, the Great Master Xuandu, Guangchengzi, and Tathagata.
When he broke through, only the Golden Spirit Mother saw him, and the others probably didn't notice anything.
As for the sudden surge in luck, it should be brought to Jiale after Jiuyou took over Buddhism. Jiuyou is Jiale's past incarnation and is a part of Jiale. What belongs to Jiuyou is Jiale and what belongs to Jiale is still Jiale. As the luck of the demonic sect grows, Jiuyou's fortune also rises, but Jiale just sits there counting money.
Now the devil has replaced Buddhism and devoured its fortune. After its great prosperity, Buddhism's fortune is stronger than Shangqing's fortune. When it is bestowed upon Jia Le, Jia Le's fortune at this moment is even stronger than that of the Golden Spirit Mother.
As for whether he can defeat the Golden Spirit Mother, that depends on the situation. After all, as the eldest sister of the Shangqing lineage, the Golden Spirit Mother is probably stronger than Xing Tian.
Hearing that the Golden Spirit Mother had no other intentions, Jia Le felt relieved.
I have to say that choosing the Shangqing lineage was really the best choice Jiale made in his life. After traveling through three worlds, entering Maoshan, and returning to the Shangqing lineage, there was no drama of teachers plotting against their disciples' opportunities. This was already very lucky. The world of cultivators is complicated, and even if such a thing really happened, it was normal. It can only be said that the Shangqing lineage is indeed the most humane force.
"Disciple will do his best."
Jiale didn't dare to guarantee it, but this matter was a good thing for both the Shangqing lineage and him. If he could really refine the Four Swords of Zhuxian, it would definitely be the most powerful treasure in Jiale's possession, no, it would be the most powerful treasure in the Three Realms. Before, Jiale might only be able to fight Xingtian to a draw, but after having the Four Swords of Zhuxian, Jiale even felt that he could kill him directly.
Upon hearing this, the Golden Spirit Mother nodded and said, "Just do your best." The appearance of Jiale has indeed brought too many changes to the Shangqing lineage. Maybe Jiale can really give her a surprise.
Return to Yin Yang Palace.
Jiale did not hesitate and immediately prepared to start refining the Four Swords of Zhu Xian.
Jiale planned to start with the Xianxian Sword. After fighting with Xingtian with the Xianxian Sword, Jiale had become familiar with the Xianxian Sword and even had a special sense of its energy. It should be much easier for him to refine it now.
After practicing for so long, Jiale has refined quite a few treasures, and refining the Four Swords of Zhu Xian is actually quite easy for him.
A mark was impressed into it, and magic power surged, and it began to be refined.
After the mark was impressed into the Xian-Trap Sword, endless murderous aura indeed invaded Jiale's soul. However, unlike the backlash that the Golden Spirit Mother had mentioned, this murderous aura could not cause any effect on Jiale. Instead, while refining the Xian-Trap Sword, Jiale was able to use this murderous aura to comprehend the laws of killing and destruction.
Originally, Jiale's killing law had already reached 70%, and now with the help of this environment, it is rising rapidly.
Eighty percent, ninety percent, ten percent, until perfection.
Jiale was almost able to successfully refine the Xianjian Sword. The Kunlun Mirror was emitting light, which was not only able to protect Jiale's soul from being harmed by the murderous aura, but also able to convert the murderous aura into energy beads. It must be said that as the world Jiale traveled through became more and more advanced and his strength became stronger, the Kunlun Mirror was also improving and recovering step by step.
Before, it was refining peaches, and now it is transforming murderous aura.
Living beings are just the most basic things, and the Kunlun Mirror seems to be able to transform all pure things.
Living beings are the purest collection of energy, as are innate spiritual fruits, and the murderous aura in the Four Swords of Zhu Xian seems to be the same as well.
After being transformed by the Kunlun Mirror, it seemed that it became easier for Jiale to refine.
Energy beads can be used to improve strength and to help comprehend the laws of the universe, so can they help refine magic weapons?
It seems worth a try.
Refining magic weapons all utilizes the soul, and what is essentially consumed is the soul's power. The higher the level of the magic weapon, the longer it takes to refine, and this is because the soul's power is limited. After refining it, it takes time to recover and then refine it again. Energy beads can be used to restore mana, so can they be used to restore soul power?
Jiale suddenly felt that his previous use of the Kunlun Mirror seemed to be somewhat narrow.
But if you think about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with it. Jia Le didn't have so many energy beads before. They were not enough to improve his strength, let alone use them to refine treasures. What's more, the treasures he used before were too low-level and would not last long. Using energy beads was somewhat of a waste of talent.
Do it as soon as you think of it. After the energy beads are consumed, Jiale starts to use them to restore his spiritual power.
The result was just as Jiale had imagined. His magic power could be restored, and naturally his soul power could be restored as well. With the help of Kunlun Mirror and Energy Beads, Jiale refined the Xianjian Sword even faster. It was unknown how long it had taken, but Jiale had already completely imprinted the mark of his soul into the Xianjian Sword.
No one knew where the Shangqing Taoist had gone, or maybe the Shangqing Taoist in this world was originally a projection of the Shangqing Taoist in a more advanced world. Now that the world can no longer support the appearance of such a high-level figure, the projection was naturally taken back. In any case, with the departure of the Shangqing Taoist, the marks in the Four Swords of Zhu Xian also disappeared, leaving only some influences. When Jia Le was refining them, they disappeared automatically, and did not launch any attacks on Jia Le.
They should be able to sense the pure aura on Jiale's body. Guangchengzi and the others should have tried to refine it, but they did not succeed. Perhaps it was because of these influences that they were automatically rejected.
Next is the Juexian Sword.
The power of the soul can be replenished infinitely, and the murderous aura can be converted into energy beads. Jiale has no problem with the lack of energy beads, and the speed of refining them is extremely fast.
In just five years, Jiale refined the Four Swords of Zhu Xian one by one.
Jia Le originally thought that the further he refined it, the harder it would become to refine it. After all, the Zhu Xian Sword was the main sword of the Zhu Xian Four Swords, and it should be the most difficult. However, the result was beyond Jia Le's expectations. Not only did the speed not slow down, but it became faster and faster. It seemed that the Zhu Xian Sword felt the aura of the other swords in Jia Le's body, and it liked Jia Le more.
Even after all the four Zhu Xian swords were refined by Jia Le, there was no so-called backlash.
It seems that it is really as the Golden Spirit Mother thought. Jia Le's luck is enough to offset these influences, and with the protection of higher-grade spiritual treasures such as the Kunlun Mirror, his soul will not be injured.
His eyes turned to the final Zhu Xian formation diagram.
It is rumored that the Zhuxian Formation Diagram was refined by the Taoist Shangqing using the Dividing Treasure Rock that the Taoist Shangqing used to divide the treasures. Its shape can undergo three thousand changes and it is itself an innate treasure, ranking among the best. After being refined by the Taoist Shangqing, its grade is no less than the Four Zhuxian Swords. This is also the reason why the Zhuxian Formation Diagram can carry such a treasure as the Four Zhuxian Swords.
You know, the Four Swords of Zhu Xian are of extremely high grade and are treasures of killing. Ordinary treasures cannot be used as formation diagrams. The existence of the Zhu Xian formation diagram that carries the Four Swords of Zhu Xian has already proved its power.
Sure enough, when refining the Zhu Xian formation diagram, Jia Le realized that refining the four Zhu Xian swords was not the most difficult thing, the most difficult thing was refining the Zhu Xian formation diagram.
It took only five years to refine the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, and it also took five years to refine the Zhu Xian Formation Diagram, which is almost the same time as refining the Four Swords of Zhu Xian. This shows the difficulty involved.
However, hard work pays off and I succeeded in refining it.
The Zhuxian formation diagram and the Zhuxian Four Swords appeared in Jiale's sea of consciousness, pushing the Precious Lotus Lantern aside. Except for the Kunlun Mirror, that was the boss of the world and he was the second in command.
With murderous aura everywhere, Jiale felt that he could summon the Four Swords of Zhu Xian in a moment, transforming them into the Zhu Xian Sword Formation to kill the enemies.
The biggest change is the confidence in Jiale.
Xing Tian, once this Zhu Xian Sword Formation appears, even Xing Tian will have to kneel.
Inside the Biyou Palace, after Jia Le finished refining the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, Mother Jin Ling seemed to sense something and then shook her head.
That's how long it has been. Even if Jiale could refine the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, it couldn't be that fast. Even for her, refining a Xian Sword would probably take more than ten years, let alone the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and the Zhu Xian Formation Diagram.
The door to the Yin-Yang Palace opened, and Mother Jin Ling felt the fierce aura coming from Jia Le, and finally a look of disbelief appeared on her face.
Appeared directly in front of Jiale.
"Jingchun, have you refined the Four Swords of Zhu Xian?"
At this time, the Golden Spirit Mother's voice was trembling and she was even more excited.
Jia Le nodded slowly, "Master, you have finally fulfilled your mission."
Mission accomplished!
This is more than just fulfilling the mission, this is simply shocking. The Golden Spirit Holy Mother thought that Jia Le might give her some surprises, but she never thought that Jia Le could give her such a big surprise. He refined the Four Swords of Zhu Xian in ten years. God bless the Shangqing lineage.
"Okay, okay. With the Four Swords of Zhu Xian in hand, I'm afraid that no one in the entire Three Realms can match your strength. Even the Jade Emperor will not be your opponent. The Peach Festival is about to begin. Jingchun, I heard that the Jade Emperor has adopted you as his adopted son?"
Jiale didn't know what the Golden Spirit Mother meant. How did it involve the Jade Emperor, and what did it have to do with him being the Jade Emperor's adopted son?
I could only nod subconsciously. After all, this was something known to everyone in the three realms.
“Jia Le, your great-grandmaster Yun Xiao wants to try to break through to the level of Golden Immortal, but this is not an easy thing. It requires gathering enough luck and accumulating enough foundation. If we can produce a person above the level of Golden Immortal, our Shangqing lineage will surely rise in this calamity and prosper completely, surpassing the Buddhist sect in the previous calamity.
Heaven is the core of the Three Realms, and the Jade Emperor is the co-lord of the Three Realms. Even if we don't admit it, this is an indisputable fact. Since we are competing for this destiny, Heaven is naturally the top priority. I have been operating in Heaven for many years and have a solid foundation. Compared with others such as the Taiqing lineage and the Yuqing lineage, Heaven is the easiest to take over and is most in line with our interests.
After we take over Heaven, we will be the orthodox one and have reason to gather the luck of the three realms into one. Then, the success rate of Yunxiao's breakthrough will be greatly increased.
Now is the perfect time . Although the Jade Emperor is quite powerful and his virtue and talent are top-notch, he has been sitting in Heaven for too long and there is no possibility for him to make further progress. He has lost his edge and everything is in vain. It is time for him to abdicate. He only has a little Golden Crow left, and now you have sent him to the Sun Star, so he has no chance to inherit Heaven.
You, my adopted son, are the most suitable. The Peach Banquet is about to begin. We will go to Heaven and ask the Jade Emperor to give up his throne to you. It will be absolutely legitimate for you to inherit the throne of the Jade Emperor. With the support of my Shangqing lineage and my influence in Heaven, no one will disobey me. "
ah!
Jia Le was confused for a moment when he heard what the Golden Spirit Mother said. Was he arranged to be the Jade Emperor just like that?
After being adopted as the Jade Emperor's son, Jiale thought that there would be no chance for him to cause havoc in Heaven in this lifetime and that he would never be able to punch in successfully like the Monkey King and Yang Jian. But now, things have taken a turn for the better.
The monkey shouted to the Jade Emperor to sit on the throne every year, but it didn’t work when it came to my house this year. But it may be different when it comes to Jiale. It is very likely to work.
Thinking of this, Jiale's heart was also beating fast.
After becoming the Emperor of Heaven, the Peach Garden will be his, and he can pick the peaches as he pleases. How many energy beads will he have by then? It still needs to be sustainable. As for the bad custom of the Peach Banquet, it should be cancelled directly.
Nodded vigorously.
"Master, you decide what to do. I will listen to you. The Peach Garden belongs to me, and the rest belongs to Master."
The Golden Spirit Mother was originally looking at Jia Le with encouragement on her face, and she was even more excited when she heard Jia Le agree. However, the more she listened, the more something seemed wrong. What did she mean by "The Peach Garden belongs to me, and the rest are yours"? You went to so much trouble to conquer the Heavenly Palace, just for a broken garden. Can't you be a little more ambitious?
Moreover, is she the kind of person who would snatch the power of her disciples? With Jiale's strength, it would be no problem for her to sit on the throne of the Jade Emperor. The Golden Spirit Holy Mother really has no selfish motives. As long as it is good for the Shangqing lineage, she will do anything. She will not do the trick of ruling from behind the curtain.
"As long as you agree, rest assured, the Jade Emperor is yours. After you take the throne, I will announce that you will be the head of my Shangqing lineage. At that time, the entire Shangqing lineage will also be yours."
