Lin Qiye took out a white piece from his arms and placed it in front of Lingbao Tianzun.
"What is this?"
"Something that can conceal your existence in the future...at the same time, it is also a token of our agreement."
"A token of trust? It's quite interesting." Lingbao Tianzun played with the white piece for a while and seemed to sense the breath of cause and effect in it, and his brows raised slightly.
"She is Jia Lan, right?" Lingbao Tianzun picked up the teacup, took a sip carefully, and his eyes fell on the well-behaved Jia Lan beside him. "You fed her the Immortal Pill... So, she is also one of your chess pieces?"
“You are joking, my Lord. How can I be so worthy as to use you as chess pieces? I am just one of the chess pieces…” Lin Qiye corrected him immediately, but after hesitating for a moment, he added vaguely, “But, she…maybe she will be my wife in the future.”
Jia Lan did not notice the difference in tone between the chess piece and his wife, but Lingbao Tianzun's expression became subtle. He glanced at the two of them and chuckled.
"You are a primordial spirit fetus, with a lifespan as long as the heavens, and she has swallowed the immortality pill... You two are a perfect match."
Upon hearing this, Jia Lan was stunned at first, and then his whole face turned red instantly!
She secretly glanced at Lin Qiye and saw that the latter was smiling openly without any intention of denying, and the blush on his face became more and more obvious.
He... doesn't really like me? ?
Galan's inexperienced and not very smart mind was suddenly in a mess, and his thoughts were all written on his face. The smile on Lingbao Tianzun's face became more and more intense.
“Lord Heaven, you just said… my life span is as long as the heaven?” Lin Qiye asked blankly.
"Yes, you are the Hongmeng Spirit Embryo." Lingbao Tianzun said as a matter of course, "The Hongmeng Spirit Embryo has existed since the birth of heaven and earth. Now that you use it as your flesh, your life span will naturally be as long as the heavens."
A thought flashed through Lin Qiye's mind like lightning, and he frowned and fell into deep thought.
"What's wrong?" Lingbao Tianzun asked with some confusion when he saw Lin Qiye suddenly like this.
"Tian Zun... I heard that there is a spiritual abyss in the heavens that can absolutely seal the lives of all living beings, and even make it impossible to perceive the passage of time. If an ordinary person is sealed in it, can he also live forever?"
“No.” Lingbao Tianzun shook his head and said, “The Lingyuan seals people’s thoughts. The perception of the passage of time does not mean that time can be sealed. Even if a person is sealed in the Lingyuan, he will still grow old and die.”
Hearing this, Lin Qiye sighed:
"Then is there no way in this world for ordinary people to ignore the passage of time and thus achieve immortality?"
Lingbao Tianzun pondered for a moment and slowly said:
“Yes, yes…”
He reached into his sleeve and a bronze bell appeared in his palm. With a slight shake, it turned into a green light that swelled in the wind and eventually became an ancient and grand bronze bell that fell in the courtyard.
Seeing this huge clock, Lin Qiye's eyes showed confusion:
"This is……"
"One of my treasures is the Donghuang Bell." Lingbao Tianzun said slowly, "The Donghuang Bell is the same as the Kunlun Mirror. It is the supreme artifact of my heaven. It has the power to suppress all things. If the bell rings, its sound can spread across the four seas and eight wastelands like thunder in an instant... Inside the thick bell wall, even time and space can be suppressed.
If a person is trapped inside the bell wall, the passage of time can be suppressed, and immortality can be achieved in that corner."
"When the bell rings, its sound can be heard throughout the four seas and eight wastelands like thunder..."
In Lin Qiye’s mind, he suddenly recalled the mighty bell ringing that resounded through heaven and earth before he traveled through time!
That is the sound of the Donghuang Bell? !
Lin Qiye's eyes suddenly lit up: "Tianzun, can you lend me this Donghuang Bell?"
"Is it also for this big game?"
"yes."
Lingbao Tianzun glanced at the Donghuang Bell in the courtyard, and a look of pain appeared on his face, but after hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth, took it back, turned it into a bell, and sent it to Lin Qiye.
"Since this concerns the lives of the people of the world, you can use it... After you are done with it, remember to return it to me."
"That's natural."
Lin Qiye gently hung the Donghuang Bell, which had turned into a bell, around his waist, with a smile on his face.
With the Donghuang Bell, the biggest difficulty at the moment is easily solved, which is a pleasant surprise!
Lin Qiye talked with Lingbao Tianzun for a while, then stood up and said goodbye in a hurry.
Looking at the two figures, one green and one blue, disappearing in the wind and snow, Lingbao Tianzun looked down at the white piece in his hand, solemnly put it back into his sleeve, and turned into a stream of light and returned to heaven.
"Lingbao, did you see that person?"
Seeing Lingbao Tianzun coming back, Daode Tianzun was a little curious, "How is it?"
Lingbao Tianzun opened his mouth, and thinking of Lin Qiye's instructions, he smiled mysteriously and said, "Keep it secret for now."
Now, the fewer causes and effects involved in this chess game, the better. It is best if Lin Qiye's existence becomes a secret of this era. Only in this way can he be better hidden.
"Secret?"
Even Yuanshi Tianzun was a little surprised to hear this answer. It was the first time that these two words came out of Lingbao Tianzun's mouth... This also made them more curious about the origin of the mysterious person he met.
"Oh, right." Lingbao Tianzun seemed to have remembered something, "In a few days, I will enter the 'True Self Reincarnation', and many matters in the Heavenly Palace will be handed over to the two of you."
"You want to enter the 'True Self Reincarnation'?" Daode Tianzun asked in surprise, "Isn't that just a possibility you deduced? Entering the reincarnation so soon is too risky."
"Don't worry, I know my limits."
Yuanshi Tianzun pondered for a moment and asked, "How long will it take for you to return after entering the reincarnation cycle?"
"About... more than two thousand years?"
Two thousand years?
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded and did not persuade him any further. He knew Lingbao Tianzun's character and the things he decided could never be changed by others.
"This can't be, is it that person who gave you inspiration?" asked the Lord of Morality tentatively.
“I guess so.”
"How could a human being have such a great impact on you?"
Lingbao Tianzun smiled and said, "Oh, by the way, I also gave away the Donghuang Bell."
Two Heavenly Lords: ????
“The Donghuang Bell?! That’s the supreme artifact of our Heavenly Court! You just give it away like that?!” The Lord of Morality widened his eyes, “You you you…”
"You can't say you're giving it away... you're just lending it out."
"How long will it take for him to pay it back?"
"Probably... more than two thousand years?"
