When Li Fan transmigrated into a new world, his life seemed unremarkable. He was moderately well-off, with a wife and children, but nothing extraordinary. Everything changed upon his death, when he...
Chapter 1249 Mr. Bai’s Gift
"It goes against reason, it goes against reason..."
"Could it be so?"
Master Yin stood there in a daze for a long time, and then he couldn't stop shaking.
Xu Ke's old face was also filled with excitement: "No wonder Mr. Bai kept saying that I only had to wait."
"In addition to Xuan Huang Tian Dao's coming to the world to save himself, countless mortals have continued to embark on the path of cultivation. The process of cultivation is the process of reversing the miasma between immortals and mortals. Thousands of years have passed, day by day..."
The Faceless Saint Emperor said in a gloomy tone: "What's counterintuitive is that removing the miasma of immortals and mortals, which is a very simple matter in the eyes of cultivators, is the initial step and prerequisite for cultivation. In fact, it is essentially the same as the ultimate goal of cultivation, which is to achieve immortality."
"It is also against the principles of heaven and earth."
As soon as these words were spoken, Master Yin and Xu Ke's eyes revealed extremely complicated expressions.
Master Yin said: "If the Heavenly Venerable Against the Principle was still alive, it would not be so easy for the mortals of the Xuanhuang Realm to go against the heavens and geomancy and embark on the path of cultivation. But precisely because Mr. Bai has passed away, the restrictions of the Immortal and Mortal Miasma have been weakened a lot."
Li Ping then added: "Besides, there is also Dongji Tianzun, who has figured out the secrets here. With the so-called body purification spirit pool formation, the difficulty of going against the principles is further reduced."
Xu Ke's lips moved slightly, and he spoke with difficulty for a long time: "When I last saw Mr. Bai, I saw that he was determined to die. I have been unable to let it go all these years, but now, I may understand a little bit."
Master Yin fell into a state of daze again, mumbling to himself: "Everyone in the world is going against the will of heaven, but to be honest, this is still within the practice system of the Dharma. Even if we know this, what's the use?"
"There must be something we didn't expect..."
Li Ping said confidently: "The answer should be in the immortal and mortal miasma. When it comes to the study of immortal and mortal miasma, I am afraid that no one in the Xuanhuang Realm today can be more in-depth than you. I am afraid that I will have to trouble you to work harder."
"Although there are no more mortals with immortal miasma in the Daqi territory, it is not difficult to find some for research from those conquered small worlds. I will ask people to cooperate with you fully." Li Ping said to Master Yin.
"Don't worry, Holy Emperor." Master Yin suddenly became excited.
…
at the same time.
In the Yanfa Jue space of the Wanxian League.
After the Holy Fetus saw the Great Wall of the Ruined World, Li Fan's calm heart was once again stirred up.
"Are you going against the principles of heaven and earth again? Immortal and mortal miasma..."
Li Fan suddenly recalled his experience of removing the miasma from the immortals and mortals on the Glazed Island and in the Spirit Purifying Pool formation.
The molten-hot water destroyed his consciousness. Even though he was determined, he eventually fell into a state of ignorance.
The mind is blank and one is acting only on instinct.
Before entering the spirit pool, Li Fan, who had been practicing the Xuanhuang Qingxin Mantra day and night, instinctively put this method into practice again.
While finally completely eliminating the miasma in his body, Li Fan also inexplicably comprehended the advanced and sublimated version of the Xuanhuang Qingxin Mantra.
Xuan Huang Refining Heart Mantra.
Later on, it became the current Xuanhuang Immortal Heart Mantra. This method has been of great help to Li Fan along the way.
"The pain in the Spirit Purification Pool is not something that ordinary people can endure. There is a high possibility that one will fall into a coma. Even if one is still conscious, in this extreme pain, one will not be able to have any other distracting thoughts."
"Carrying the spirit and soul, embracing the unity, cleansing the mysteries, learning from nature..."
With his eyes closed, Li Fan had a flash of inspiration in his mind.
"Human beings are in harmony with the Tao. Instinctive behavior under ignorance and unconsciousness happens to be the closest to the Tao. This may be the reason why so many mortals in the world can successfully eliminate the miasma between immortals and mortals and govern the principles of heaven and earth again."
"But in fact, this is not completely contrary to reason. The fact that there is no qualitative leap in strength after the immortal and mortal miasma has been eliminated proves this point."
Li Fan pondered.
"First, because I can't completely rely on my own strength to eliminate the immortal miasma, and secondly..."
The light of the Dao Stone flickered in his mind, and Li Fan recalled his instant realization and kept savoring it.
He thought thoughtfully: "When the immortal and mortal miasma is finally eliminated..."
“It’s like it disappeared on its own.”
"It's like it sensed the Xuan Huang Qing Xin Mantra I was chanting, and it spontaneously transformed into the Lian Xin Mantra."
"Did some condition get triggered?"
Li Fan recalled the images of Dongji’s life sent by the Real Tianzun.
"The secret to defying the laws of heaven and earth is hidden in the miasma of immortals and mortals."
Before Li Fan's eyes, he seemed to see countless mortals breaking the shackles of immortals and mortals and going against the law to embark on the path of cultivation over thousands of years.
"Every time a cultivator is born, he or she goes through a process that is almost against the laws of heaven and earth."
"Even if they themselves are unaware of it, this is what really happened."
"To go against the principles of heaven and earth again is tantamount to confronting the Dharma and completely overturning the cultivation system he personally created. Talented people like Mr. Bai and Dong Ji also ended up in failure. This shows how difficult it is. But..."
Li Fan suddenly realized.
He thought of the simulation process of his own reincarnation.
"Every mortal's process of fighting against the miasma of immortals can be seen as a simulation of going against the laws of heaven and earth again."
"The power of one person may be exhausted. The power of millions of people also has its limits."
"But the power of millions of people and millions of times is infinite and inexhaustible."
"In the face of such a huge force, it is only a matter of time before the new law of spreading the law is broken."
Li Fan was shocked: "The spirits of heaven and earth and all living beings are refining their spirits with pure numbers, shaking the power of immortals that transcend the mundane world."
"Endless sentient beings, eternal rebellion, this is to further magnify the advantage of quantity on the time scale, from quantitative change to qualitative change..."
"As long as there are still beings in the Xuanhuang Realm who are unwilling to accept the fate of mortals, this method will continue."
Li Fan's thoughts raced, and he felt even more sincere respect for Mr. Bai, who had created such a wonderful method.
Ignoring the limit of lifespan, the means remain effective after death, transcending the long river of time and affecting several years later.
Unlike Li Fan who possesses the True Treasure, this is already the limit of what an ordinary cultivator can achieve in the ordinary sense.
Of course, this does not have much meaning for Li Fan to learn from.
What Mr. Bai needs the help of thousands of years of cultivators in the Xuanhuang Realm to accomplish, Li Fan can accomplish just by continuous practice.
But this did not prevent Li Fan from collecting Mr. Bai's achievements.
"In my opinion, the so-called secret of defying the principles of heaven and earth hidden in the miasma of immortals and mortals is the realization of countless cultivators in the past countless years when they were eliminating the miasma of immortals and mortals."
“It’s all recorded.”
"If I could absorb these simulated experiences that are close to going against the laws of nature again and again..."
Li Fan boasted that he had become accustomed to most of the treasures in the Xuanhuang Realm, even the cat treasures from outside the high walls. But he had to admit that after realizing these countless counterintuitive experiences, he was moved.
Unlike magic weapons, this experience package can directly enhance the essence of Li Fan's soul.
It is enough to greatly narrow the gap between him and the Dharma Transformers and Heavenly Doctors.
Although it was only a one-time incident, it was of great significance to Li Fan. The sooner it was discovered, the better.
"At least it can save me three lifetimes of reincarnation."
Li Fan started to think in his mind.
"So where did Mr. Bai hide this gift package?"
"Is it in the Falling Immortal Mirror, or is it in the power of the Immortal-Mortal Miasma? Does it require any special conditions to trigger it?"
If the tone of sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers had not been set in this life, Li Fan would have wished that he would personally go out and find out what was going on.
However, years of experience allowed him to suppress this impulse.
"With Master Yin and Xu Ke working hard on the research, it will definitely be more efficient than me guessing blindly."
"If they know, it means I know it too. It will all be mine in the end anyway, so there's no need to rush."
"We can also see how heavy this gift package is. After the Saint Emperor's clone absorbs it, can it really shake the Dharma?"
"Hehehe, I can't help but look forward to it."
Li Fan, who inevitably felt bored after staying in seclusion in the Yanfa Jue space for a long time, was also feeling emotional at this moment.
…
The perspective returns to the Holy Emperor's clone.
It will take more than a day to uncover the mystery left by Mr. Bai.
Before this, the time agreed upon by Li Ping and Ruomu had already arrived.
The Holy Emperor once again came to the outside of the White Flower and Black Abyss.
He did not become careless just because he had an absolute advantage. In order to prevent Ruomu from making desperate moves, the Essence of Source Power quietly laid a layer of protection around him.
Then Li Ping stepped back into Jian Renshou's space.
Perhaps it was because of Li Ping’s nourishment last time, or perhaps it was because Ruomu himself saw hope.
In the barren space that was originally filled with deathly silence and despair, Li Ping actually felt a hint of life this time.
Even though it is extremely weak, the appearance of this trace of vitality that should not exist already explains certain problems.
Li Ping also discovered something different from before.
Those monks hanging on the branches of the tree...
All disappeared.
"Meet the Holy Emperor."
At this time, the old Taoist appeared in front of Li Ping with a smile on his face.
Ruomu noticed the direction of the other party's gaze, and before Li Ping could ask any questions, he took the initiative to explain: "Since I have decided to join you, I will naturally make some changes. It is better to change my past incompetent and furious behavior."
"You know what, after seeing so many of these human flesh fruits, I am indeed a little tired of them."
Li Ping said calmly: "Where are they now?"
Ruomu chuckled: "Of course, let them return to heaven."
As he spoke, Ruomu handed over a leaf.
The leaves are green and yellow, and if you look closely, you can see a lot of hidden treasures inside, filled with various kinds of golden pills piled up like small mountains.
These golden elixirs seemed to be dissolving and were incomplete.
Li Ping could vaguely see the appearance of the wonders of heaven and earth in the core of the golden elixir.
"I was originally a spiritual being of heaven and earth, holding the power over life and death. Although the power has been gradually taken back, my connection with heaven and earth has never been severed."
Ruomu looked at Li Ping and continued, "Through my absorption and transformation, the power of heaven and earth that was swallowed by the cultivators can be returned to heaven and earth more quickly."
"You know, I didn't embezzle it."
Li Ping retracted his gaze from the leaves: "I believe you are not that stupid. Compared with my reward, these are simply insignificant."
Ruomu nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.
"Come here." Li Ping suddenly said.
The old Taoist hesitated for a moment, and finally walked slowly to the Faceless Holy Emperor.
Compared with Li Ping's huge body of three meters and three feet, the hunchbacked Taoist looked like a baby.
Li Ping gently pressed his palm on Ruomu's head.
boom!
The scene in front of Ruomu shattered in an instant.
In an instant, he seemed to have left this life-saving space.
Came into the endless dark starry sky.
The golden vortex, like a galaxy, swirled vastly.
And in the center of the galaxy, the majestic figure of the Faceless Holy Emperor can be vaguely seen.
That powerful and sacred aura seemed to be even better than the Xuanhuang Heavenly Dao that Ruomu was familiar with.
As one of the oldest beings in the Xuanhuang Realm, Ruomu naturally knew what this power represented.
The last bit of dissatisfaction in my heart slowly disappeared.
Ruomu revealed its original form, no longer an ugly old human being, but a withered and seemingly nutritious sapling.
In front of the vast golden swirling galaxy, they are like ants.
The branches and leaves swayed gently, which was Ruomu's way of expressing submission.
The figure of the Faceless Holy Emperor expanded rapidly, filling Ruomu's entire vision in an instant.
The golden galaxy also exploded.
Endless starlight submerged Ruomu.
By the time Ruomu woke up from the hallucination, Li Ping had disappeared.
"And wait patiently."
"When I need you, I will call you."
Only Li Ping's voice kept echoing in my mind.
And Li Ping did not break his original promise.
Ruomu clearly felt that the bond between himself and the Xuanhuang Realm was slowly recovering.
Although it is impossible to return to the peak period of the past.
But there is always hope.
and……
Ruomu looked at the palm of his hand.
In addition to the original green leaf, a small green bottle appeared at some point.
It was obviously left behind by the Faceless Saint Emperor before he left.
A method of controlling the forbidden system naturally emerged in his mind, and Ruomu followed suit and opened the small green bottle.
A pure vitality emerges from the green bottle.
Even though it is not as good as the nourishment provided by Xuanhuang Tiandao himself, it is definitely a great tonic for Ruomu in his current condition.
Ruomu greedily swallowed all the vitality in the green bottle in one gulp.
He didn't give up until he couldn't pour out even a single drop.
However, Ruomu realized that the vitality in the small green bottle had not completely disappeared.
Instead, it is generated slowly and spontaneously.
What surprised Ruomu even more was that the little green bottle did not absorb any energy from the outside world to generate this vitality.
It’s as if the vitality is completely derived from the green bottle itself.
"It's really a good baby."
Ruomu smacked his lips in a very indecent manner.
"It doesn't seem to be something from the Xuanhuang Realm..."
Ruomu pondered for a moment, then smiled.
"Why bother with so much? Just have something to eat and drink."
"It can't be worse than before."
Only after you lose something do you realize how precious it was.
If anyone wants to take these things away again...
Then even if the other party was passing on the Dharma, Ruomu would dare to take a few bites.
