"The situation is turning grim," one said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.
...
Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...
But in any case, this is a threat!
This is completely different from him voluntarily handing over the Earth!
Sensing his anger and helplessness, Guanyin gently comforted him: "In the past, you ignored the tricks others had up their sleeves. Consider this a lesson to avoid suffering even greater losses and losing your life in the future."
"The time has come for me to fulfill my promise. Which supernatural powers do you wish to learn?" the Queen Mother asked.
A breeze carrying the scent of fresh grass blew by, causing the Queen Mother's robes to flutter, revealing her exquisite figure and ivory-white skin.
Li Changzhou's eyes were filled with deep thought as he constantly reflected on his mistakes and realized he had underestimated these ancient people.
Once we got back, we found the Pope and killed him!
His mistake was that he didn't have time before and always let Aferona deal with him.
With his mind at ease, Li Changzhou began to consider what supernatural powers he could learn from the Queen Mother.
The Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals represent the will of thirty-six powerful Heavenly Realm experts, some of whom possess skills equivalent to S-rank.
It is extremely difficult to get started. There are eight Heavenly Gang Techniques in the Fragrant Leaf Crown, and Li Changzhou has not yet learned any of them.
There is a Heavenly Gang Technique, which he has actually mastered with his talent, but his human immortal power is simply insufficient. Using it in actual combat will not only fail to achieve any results, but will also deplete his power.
Therefore, he didn't have much interest in the Heavenly Gang Technique; he only wanted to obtain a technique from the Queen Mother that wasn't in the Fragrant Leaf Crown.
"The Queen Mother didn't take away your fragrant leaf crown, which clearly shows she's cooperating with sincerity." Guanyin continued to comfort Li Changzhou, knowing he still harbored resentment about being threatened.
Li Changzhou didn't pick up on that topic, but instead asked: "Which subject do you think I should choose?"
"[Returning the Wind and Fire.]" Guanyin said, "[With this Heavenly Gang Technique as a foundation, you will be able to learn 'Returning Heaven and Reversing the Sun' in the future.]"
Even among those at the Heavenly Rank, there are different levels.
The Queen Mother, who cleaves the Milky Way, foresight into the future, and descends upon the instance, and the King of Wind and Light, wielding the Galaxy Sword and the Black Hole Shield, who travels to the future, are clearly more powerful than the third-tier Divine Warriors of the Divine Will Great Wall.
Just as there are different levels of celestial positions, there are also differences in the strength of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper Techniques. Returning to Heaven and Reversing the Sun is stronger than Returning to Wind and Reversing Fire; in fact, it can be considered an advanced technique of Returning to Wind and Reversing Fire.
This does not mean that the return air and fire are weak.
Reversal of the trend: to reverse the development of something irreversible.
In terms of actual performance, it's like in "Avengers: Infinity War," where Thanos used the Time Stone to resurrect Vision and reclaim the Mind Stone.
This is already a power at the level of cosmic rules; it is truly the will of Heaven.
"Returning the wind and fire," Li Changzhou said.
Without the Queen Mother making any move, Li Changzhou's mind conjured up a strange image of 'wind that went from existence to non-existence and flames that gradually shrank'.
This strange phenomenon can directly demonstrate one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Techniques, "Returning Wind and Fire," and is tens of thousands of times simpler than the mystical and esoteric written descriptions in the Fragrant Leaf Crown.
The fact that the Queen Mother could transmit the Dharma through such means indirectly proves that she has completely mastered this Heavenly Gang Dharma.
If she wanted, she could turn Li Changzhou back into a baby with a wave of her hand, even reverting his memories and stripping him of his player identity.
These supreme celestial level experts are so powerful that they are beyond the imagination of normal beings; ordinary celestial level beings are no match for them.
Only such strong individuals can foresee the future, continuously plan ahead, and are qualified to compete for the position of 'winner'.
This is extremely unfair to players, because once they encounter such a powerful opponent, they will face one.
But where in the world is there true fairness?
Fairness exists only in a very small area over a certain period of time. In a slightly larger area—sometimes as long as there are more than two people—there is no fairness.
"I want the supernatural powers of 'paper-cutting into human form' and 'a universe hidden in the sleeve'."
The Queen Mother was decisive and efficient, directly passing on two supernatural powers to Li Changzhou, and also giving him the location of the Dao Ancestor's Daoist temple.
"I'll give you the peaches and golden pills when I return to the Three Realms," the Queen Mother said.
“Okay.” Li Changzhou nodded. “However, I won’t go back immediately. I will cultivate here for a few years until Tang Sanzang has obtained the scriptures.”
“I only look at the ‘present’ time – I know when you entered this instance. You’d better not take any chances. Your vital energy is very strong. Once it’s planted, there’s no going back.”
"I know." Li Changzhou said with a sour face.
Thinking about it carefully, it really is a strange thing.
When it comes to childbirth, women are inherently at a disadvantage compared to men. Men can have their fun and then wash their hands of it without a care in the world—Li Changzhou didn't get his pleasure, and even if a woman is heartless, she still has to endure the hardships of ten months of pregnancy.
But he was threatened by a woman with the promise of having a child.
"Looking forward to meeting you in the future." The Daoist voice rang out, and the celestial light of ascension was like a pillar, as the Queen Mother slowly disappeared.
The robe fell to the ground, and a plump, round peach rolled onto the fabric.
Li Changzhou picked up his clothes with his left hand, looked at the grass dyed red by the setting sun, and expressionlessly tossed up the nine-thousand-year-old peach in his right hand.
An unprecedented desire to become the winner welled up within me.
