Zhu Yi transmigrated and learned that she was a small, untalented cultivator who couldn't easily practice cultivation. This didn't bother her much; fortunately, the original owner was extre...
Chaos, who was not far away, found it amusing and began to imitate Qiongqi in teasing Jinbao.
Just as Jinbao's Vajra Arrow was about to pierce him, Chaos would mimic Qiongqi's movements and dodge away.
Jinbao was a little confused. "Woof? So you guys were just teasing me like a pet?"
Nine-Headed Serpent spoke, its voice still somewhat hoarse, as if it hadn't spoken for over a hundred years. It was clearly excited at this moment, "Little white dog, you're so much fun!"
"..." Jinbao.
"The days in the Soul Devouring Array are unbearable, why don't you stay and keep us company?" Qiongqi transformed into a tiny creature, hopping over to Jinbao's side, his gaze level with Jinbao's. "How about it, you stay and play with us, we won't let those vengeful spirits bite you!"
"I'm capable of anything!" Jinbao flicked his white tail, sending a stench flying onto Qiongqi's face, and Qiongqi immediately curled up there and yawned.
Seeing Qiongqi in such a predicament, the other four ferocious beasts forgot about the trouble with Jinbao and surrounded Qiongqi to mock him.
In the midst of the chaos, an uneaten vegetable rice ball fell from Jinbao's arms and was caught by Chaos's claw.
Chaos looked at the other four, took a big bite but didn't get to eat the rice ball she had finally managed to pick up. Instead, her mouth was filled with a soft, bitter, and dark stuff.
The dim-witted little head looked and realized that the Taotie had grabbed a small vengeful spirit and replaced the rice ball in its paw.
"Awooo! You're shameless! Give it back to me!"
"It's quite delicious! Unfortunately, spiritual energy will diminish the demonic energy within us, so it's not advisable to eat too much. I'll help you solve this problem!"
Taotie had an incredibly irritating expression that said, "I'm doing this for your own good, you should be grateful to me," which made Chaos feel embarrassed and annoyed.
With a swift, invisible kick, the Taotie's elbow snapped.
Chaos smiled with satisfaction, then turned to fuss over Jinbao, intending to ask for another rice ball.
"Smack!" The Taotie couldn't take it anymore. It swung its hips and slammed Chaos into its arms, sending him crashing face-first to the ground and his butt sticking up high in the air.
When Jinbao saw the big tongue flicking as it licked the scratches on its paws, he thought to himself, "This is a good idea! I'll throw a few more rice balls out, and you can fight yourselves!"
The five illusory figures of the murderers had spent many years in Soul Devouring Town, and their minds weren't as quick as Jinbao's.
Five big guys were fighting over two vegetable rice balls, which amused Jinbao, who was watching the show from the sidelines.
Seeing that Jinbao was trying to delay the five ferocious beasts, Zhu Yi intensified her efforts to exterminate the vengeful spirits.
A few vengeful spirits are still willing to enter the golden lotus gate and be reincarnated.
Zhu Yi showed no mercy to most of the stubborn resisters, first teaching them a lesson with Yin-Yang Fire, and then sweeping them away through the Red Lotus Gate.
Thousands of ghosts perished from that point on.
"Come on, junior sister! If we deal with these ignorant fools, we should be able to get out of here, right?"
In the Spirit Realm, at the Heavenly Dao Stele, it is Qingluan's turn to be on duty today.
She idly guarded the Heavenly Dao Stele, and missed Zhu Yi's barbecue terribly.
"Well, how should I put it, why can't we recreate that little girl's flavor?"
The Goddess of Red Paper smiled and said, "What a gluttonous bird! Our own cooking is just as delicious."
Qingluan was not easily fooled. She glanced at the slightly charred and burnt grilled fish in Hongjian's hand and said with a hint of disappointment, "What do you mean 'also delicious'? It's completely different... no way!"
Hongjian took the grilled fish, not intending to give it to the Azure Phoenix.
This guy is really annoying. I dragged her along to keep me company, but he insisted on grilling fish for me. After he finished grilling it, he kept complaining about this and that. It's infuriating.
I was just about to give the grilled fish to Qingluan when she didn't take it.
Hongjian was getting impatient. She looked up and saw that Qingluan was being held back by the strangeness of the Heavenly Dao Stele.
The white marble stele of Heaven's Way reflects the resolute figure of a little girl.
Her white dress stood out conspicuously among the group of vengeful spirits, like a stunning red peony amidst a sea of green leaves.
Qingluan glanced at the red paper, took the grilled fish, and said with a grin, "This girl does look a little bit like you!"
Hongjian remained noncommittal and didn't concern herself with whether it resembled her or not. She countered, "The Heavenly Dao Stele encompasses everything, so why is it showing an ordinary little girl from the Canglan Realm this time?"
"You may not know this, but I'm only guarding the Heavenly Dao Stele of the Canglan Continent. Not many people know this, so there's no harm in telling you. It's just that under the Heavenly Dao, there are countless mortals and spirits who need to be recognized, and one Heavenly Dao Stele can't display them all. So that guy, the Weapon Master, came up with a way to refine the white jade crystals around the Heavenly Dao Pillar into Heavenly Dao Steles that can display a specific location. This way, the efficiency of the Heavenly Dao in rewarding or punishing a person will be greatly improved."
Hongjian was enlightened, "It seems that during my two thousand years of seclusion, I really missed a lot of new things in the spirit world."
Qingluan knew what Hongjian meant by seclusion and what unhappy things she was referring to. She knew that some things were Hongjian's unresolved issues, so she didn't say anything more. Instead, she put down the grilled fish and began to evaluate Zhuyi's behavior based on rewards and punishments.
"Why is the Spirit Realm still like those artificially calculated systems in the Small Worlds?" Hongjian was confused again. Shouldn't the rewards and punishments of Heaven be automatically evaluated based on a person's karmic connections under the laws of Heaven? Why is it still necessary to manually issue rewards?
Qingluan smiled helplessly: "I don't know either. The Heavenly Dao Steles on other continents can operate their own reward and punishment mechanisms, but it seems that the Canglan Continent doesn't receive much divine favor from the Spirit Realm."
The Heavenly Dao Stele clearly records Zhu Yi's life story, stating that during this trip, Zhu Yi converted and slayed five thousand vengeful spirits in Black Fiend Mountain, deserving a reward of a single petal of his Buddha Lotus form. He can also use the power of divine punishment to cultivate, and is responsible for maintaining the stable operation of the world order in the Canglan Continent...
After uttering a string of official jargon, Qingluan simply waved her hand and directly took a golden lotus seed, throwing it at Zhu Yi.
The white marble Heavenly Dao Stele gleamed, indicating that the Buddha Lotus seed had been delivered to Zhu Yi using the divine power of the spirit realm. In the future, she could use the Buddha Lotus to reshape her physical body and golden core on the Canglan Continent, and she could also use the Buddha Lotus Divine Punishment, which only the enforcers of the spirit realm had the right to use, to punish and kill evil demons...
Another bunch of official rhetoric. Qingluan didn't bother to read it carefully, quickly checked the boxes, and completed the task.
Just then, Zhu Yi, who was focused on slaying the vengeful spirit, suddenly felt a pain in his body, and a strange and holy power seemed to surge into his dantian.
A large python is leading a group of smaller pythons toward the gradually closing Golden Lotus Gate, while the Red Lotus Gate is met with fierce attacks and resistance from the vengeful spirits wherever it goes.
The unfamiliar spiritual energy surging within Zhu Yi's dantian was rapidly merging with her. Zhu Yi seemed to see another golden lotus seed?
She suddenly felt her spiritual energy stagnate, and she could no longer spare the energy to control the Yin-Yang Fire or use the Lotus Gate to control all evil...
Just as she was wondering what was going on, Qing Shang finally made his move against Zhu Yi. A ruthless and deadly attack came with the wind. Zhu Yi was a little stunned and didn't react in time to deal with the attack—the Brahma Lamp appeared in front of Zhu Yi. In that instant, Zhu Yi's heart felt like it was shattering into pieces. She watched helplessly as the Brahma Lamp, which had been with her since she transmigrated, went out...
The little merman's pained voice echoed in her mind: "It hurts so much! You idiot Zhu Yi, you need to find a way to make the Brahma Lamp light up again!"
