The crystal coffin was filled with energy and had an energy conversion mechanism. She sensed that divine energy was also involved in the conversion, so she guessed that this object might be something from the rift, which was obtained by the Demon King's Palace and stored in the treasure room when the rift opened.
So many demon lords went to great lengths to bully Lin Jingting, it wouldn't be unreasonable for them to compensate him with their treasure room, library, and spiritual spring!
These things are of little use to Chu Nian, since she has already plundered the Immortal Realm and has found better ones, but they are of great use to Lin Jingting.
After she finished casting the spell, she waved her hand and sent a palm strike in the direction where the demon lords had gone.
It wasn't about killing any particular demon lord, since it was a collective action and killing any one of them would be unfair. But if they were all killed, the demon race would likely be greatly weakened, making it difficult for the entire demon race to gain a foothold in the cultivation world in the future. Chu Nian didn't want to see that happen.
Therefore, Chu Nian's palm strike was merely a brand, a spell similar to a talisman: it would prevent these demon lords from ever stepping outside the demon realm again for the next three thousand years. Thus, when many secret realms outside the demon realms opened in the future, they would be unable to explore and seek opportunities for three thousand years, which would be a considerable punishment for them.
While casting the mark, she also used telepathy to inform the demon lords of her punishment. Afterwards, she sent telepathic messages to Li Jueyin and Lin Zhao, telling them not to restore Lin Jingting's memories from before the age of five unless absolutely necessary, to avoid him overthinking things later.
Although she felt that doing this wouldn't be of much use to Lin Jingting, the ghost immortal of the future, since the Lin Jingting of the future had already gone mad with her, it was very likely that her arrangement, apart from helping Lin Jingting to live for thousands of years in ghost form after his physical body perished, didn't seem to have any other effect, she still couldn't help but give the couple some advice.
Li Jueyin sensed that Chu Nian's words implied she was about to leave, but before she could ask, Chu Nian had already vanished in a flash.
"Junior brother, are you alright?" Hua Tianling walked up and asked Lin Jingting, who was still looking around searching for someone. Because of Chu Nian's spell, the Divine Flower Sea had now recognized him as its master and was wrapped around his finger. Looking at it, he felt a mix of emotions.
Lin Jingting glanced at the five-petaled flower ring he was staring at and snorted, "Senior brother, this is a divine ring. She was willing to give it to you." Why doesn't she ask me for a divine item too!
Hua Tianling paused for a moment, then said, "This Sea of Divine Flowers originally belonged to my Hua family." After a pause, he added, "Besides, she is my aunt, not yours."
Lin Jingting glanced at him sideways, inexplicably feeling annoyed by his words. After holding it in for a while, he said, "She also gave me a gift." He didn't understand why he was jealous of Hua Tianling because of this; that woman wasn't anyone to him.
Hua Tianling nodded and said, "Yes, you are my only junior brother, so it's normal for her, as an elder, to give you a small gift as a token of our kinship."
Hearing this, Lin Jingting inexplicably felt a sour taste in his mouth, and a slight urge to punch Senior Brother Hua. But Senior Brother Hua had always been very kind to him, and what he said seemed to be true, so why was he angry?
Chu Nian used a secret technique to become invisible and escaped. She overheard the two brothers' conversation from afar and felt that Lin Jingting, that brat, might cause trouble again in the future. Fortunately, she was leaving. Even if she didn't leave, she would try her best not to appear in front of this brat in the future to avoid trouble.
Before she could even leave the Nebula Sect, she felt a blur before her eyes, and her soul was pulled away.
Ah, she knew it would be like this. Fortunately, she made arrangements for her affairs immediately after killing Wen Ruyan and Ouyang Hao. However, others did not know that this powerful deity who had traveled around the Immortal Realm had passed away, and for many years afterward, the cultivation world treated the Hua family with great courtesy.
After leaving this time and space, Chu Nian passed through the Underworld and discovered that a powerful energy shield shrouded the Underworld, preventing her from entering. Moreover, the energy deep within the Underworld that had sent her into the world of the book was much stronger than before, propelling her rapidly into another world.
This is very strange. Could it be related to her possessing divine power? Once her abilities break through a certain limit, the underworld's control over her also increases? If this is true, will it become more difficult for her to investigate the details of the underworld in the future?
As she was thinking, she was suddenly plunged into a new body.
Meanwhile, in the celestial realm.
With its profusion of flowers, towering divine fruits, and medicinal plants shimmering with divine light, this must be a very large-scale plantation in the realm of the gods.
A handsome deity with a blue lightning bolt mark on his forehead was struggling with his pen, seemingly finding it difficult to write. Suddenly, he sensed a peculiar aura emanating from below. Shocked for a moment, he used his divine power to investigate, then muttered to himself, "The Underworld has activated its full self-defense mode. This mode hasn't been activated since Master set it up. What happened? Master instructed me to watch over the lower realm before he left. Should I go down and check on the situation?"
But after only a moment's hesitation, he picked up the pen again with great interest and said, "Let's wait and see. Master's magic pen is so much fun, I have to play with it a little longer before Master comes back..."
.
Chu Nian felt her body moving, and she could hear the creaking sound of the cart wheels moving. She felt like she couldn't breathe at all, or to be precise, she wasn't breathing at all. When she opened her eyes, she found everything was pitch black.
But soon, her eyes adjusted to the darkness, and she found herself in front of a wooden plank, surrounded by a very small space, just big enough for her to lie down...
Could this be... a coffin?!
Chu Nian was somewhat surprised by this discovery.
Fortunately, she can use her mental power in this world.
She used her mental power to examine the physical body and found a deep ligature mark on the original owner's neck. The original owner was either strangled or hanged himself.
The coffin was placed on an old horse-drawn carriage, being pulled away to an unknown destination. Chu Nian could also hear people talking outside, seemingly discussing taking the corpse back to its hometown.
Chu Nian never imagined that one day she would wake up in a coffin, and a coffin that was already nailed shut.
Not only that, but when she discovered that the original owner of the body had been strangled, she found that a kind of resistance force had arisen within the body and was fighting against her mental power when she tried to repair the physical body with her mental power.
She could have used her mental power to completely annihilate this resistance, but her physical body would have rapidly decayed in the process. Fortunately, she withdrew her power in time, preventing the body from rotting into a pile of stinking bones.
Frustrated, she decided to try to break out of the coffin, only to discover that a powerful talisman had been affixed to the outside of the coffin.
