"Obsession turns into a demon..." Fang Jian was stunned when he heard what Jiu Tian Xuan Nu said.

While Fang Jian was stunned, the Lady of the West had already walked out of the flower field. She held the embroidered jade flower hoe in her right hand, and with her left hand, she gently gathered her skirt and walked onto the broken jade path.

Fang Jian only felt a refreshing and soothing fragrance passing in front of him. When he came to his senses, he found that the Queen Mother of the West had passed him by and was walking away along the gravel path carrying the exquisite and small Wenxiu Jade Flower Hoe.

Fang Jian quickly followed, coming up behind the Lady of the Nine Heavens and following closely behind her, saying, "Thank you, Great Lord, for saving my life."

But the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens said only: "The Dao has nothing to do with sex and fate, leave it to dissipate and return to the clouds."

When Fang Jian heard this, he felt that it contained endless mysteries, but he couldn't figure it out or comprehend it for a moment, which made him extremely distressed.

However, he quickly cast aside his distracting thoughts and asked the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens, "Great Lord, what do you mean when you say that my obsession has turned me into a demon?"

The Lady of the Nine Heavens said in a gentle voice, "Don't ask any more questions, just follow me."

"Yes." Fang Jian bowed and accepted the order.

Then Fang Jian followed behind the Queen Mother of the West in silence.

About a cup of tea later, Lady Jiu Tian brought Fang Jian to a large hall in the southeast of the sea of ​​flowers.

Fang Jian looked up and saw three large golden characters written on the plaque of the hall: "Jizhen Hall."

Jizhen, seeing these two words, Fang Jian's mind unconsciously emerged with the origin of the Queen Mother of the West.

The Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady is the spirit of heaven and earth, the spiritual energy of yin and yang. Her divine power is all-pervasive, and she possesses all forms. She understands the nature of all things and comprehends the various states of change. She is the master of the Dao and the leader of all truths.

The word "Extremely True" probably contains the meaning of the above passage.

The Queen Mother of the West was the first to step onto the steps of the temple. Then a breeze blew, and the locked door of the Jizhen Temple slowly opened in an instant.

Then, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady turned into a wisp of green smoke and flew into the Jizhen Palace. Seeing this, Fang Jian also quickly entered the main hall of the Jizhen Palace.

The moment Fang Jian entered the Jizhen Hall, he couldn't help but be slightly startled, because the Jizhen Hall was filled with bookshelves, and each bookshelf was filled with scriptures and jade volumes.

At this time, the Queen Mother of the West had already put down the embroidered jade hoe and was standing in the center of the Jizhen Palace, waving at Fang Jian.

"Come here, young man." The Queen Mother of the West waved and said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Fang Jian stepped forward and bowed to the Lady of the Nine Heavens, saying, "Your Excellency, I am... somewhat apprehensive that you have called upon me in this manner."

"Excuse me?" The Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady smiled at Fang Jian and said, "Since I'm not wearing the Divine Sky Mysterious Crown, I'm not meeting you as the Great Holy Mother of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Yuannu, nor am I the Grand Envoy of the Grand Xuandu Province. Is there anything wrong with calling you young man?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately bowed and said, "It is an honor for the Grand Envoy to address me in this way."

The Lady of the Nine Heavens smiled faintly and said, "In front of me, you will always be just a young man. Even if you are a hundred thousand years old, a million years old, or ten million years old, you are still a young man in my eyes."

The Queen Mother of the West does have enough confidence to say this. If we really want to calculate her age, it should be calculated based on the number of eons, not years.

The Lady of the Nine Heavens waved her hand and then said, "Have you ever thought about where your adherence to the 'Heavenly Rules and Regulations' came from?"

Fang Jian was stunned when he heard this, then he thought carefully, yes, how did he come up with the mentality of respecting and abiding by the heavenly rules so much?

After thinking about it, Fang Jian still had no answer. It was like a thought without roots. How could it be easy to find the source?

"Maybe it's innate." Fang Jian answered slowly.

The Lady of the Nine Heavens shook her head and said, "No, no one is born with a belief. Not even the innately divine have an innate belief or adherence to it."

"When all things are born, they are in chaos. Even the innate divine beings are ignorant and bewildered about everything in the world. Only through cultivation and contemplation of the laws of nature can one understand all the principles and rules of the world."

When Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu said this, she looked at Fang Jian and said, "So, where does your determination to uphold the Heavenly Principles and Laws come from?"

Fang Jian couldn't answer this question because he himself didn't know.

However, the Queen Mother of the West knew.

"When your soul first arrived in the Great World of Jambu and was appointed by the Great Celestial Venerable as the Land God of Yangxia County, the obsession of upholding the Heavenly Laws was planted in your soul."

"After that, you had a smooth journey, upholding the laws of heaven and punishing every immortal cultivator who violated them. This obsession only grew stronger."

"After you sent Shao Ling into Lei Ze, your obsession transformed into a demonic seed. This is 'obsession becomes demonic'."

"And this obsession with the Heavenly Laws became a demon. After you violated the Heavenly Laws, it began to manifest, triggering your Heavenly Tribulation prematurely."

The Lady of the Nine Heavens explained the process of Fang Jian's obsession turning into a demon. After listening, Fang Jian couldn't help but ask, "Great Master, did I do something wrong?"

The Lady of the Nine Heavens smiled slightly, looked at Fang Jian, and shook her head, saying, "Young man, there is no right or wrong in the Heavenly Laws. The Heavenly Laws uphold the order of the Three Realms and the order of nature. They never judge right from wrong."

At this point, Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu added, "What benefits sentient beings in the Three Realms is right even if it is wrong. What harms sentient beings in the Three Realms is wrong even if it is right. This is the law of heaven, this is the rule of heaven."

"Instead of being obsessed with a single thought of right and wrong, or being obsessed with the Heavenly Rules and Heavenly Laws themselves, this is putting the cart before the horse."

Finally, the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens said, "Give me the Jade Book in which your God of Justice explains the Heavenly Laws."
