Chapter 569: Giant Star Yang Jian!
They were all playing tactics in the Primordial World. Who were they trying to trick here?
No matter how he thought about it, Li Changshou realized that he could not go to the Chaos Sea in the near future.
If Kun Peng was sincere about exposing some information…
Couldn’t he just shout it out in Xuandu City?
Kun Peng had fought with his senior brother for so long. He had the ability to shout. He was flying so quickly outside the Primordial World. It was not impossible for him to survive.
As long as he set foot in the Chaos Sea again, regardless of whether he saw the Kun Peng or obtained any information, it would affect his current plans.
According to the convention in his previous life, Li Changshou categorized Kun Peng’s behavior as “serious fis.h.i.+ng”.
If he wanted to fish, he would fish hard.
Kun Peng was originally developed from a big fish. He did not expect it to do such a thing. It was really embarra.s.sing.
To summarize, it was actually just the word ‘not going’.
Li Changshou waited for another half a day. When he realized that his teacher did not send him the word “go”, he heaved a sigh of relief.
That would not be a problem.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to come to the Xuandu City, Li Changshou sorted out the subsequent plans for the various levels. During the process of thinking, he suddenly realized that he had rejected Yun Xiao’s request to share the burden. Perhaps, it would make Yun Xiao feel a little depressed.
After some thought, Li Changshou sighed deeply in the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice.
“What happened?”
Yun Xiao’s voice sounded as expected. The fairy outside Jin Dou’s eyes were filled with concern.
“Nothing. I just feel a little pressurized.” Li Changshou smiled and burned the scroll in front of him with True Fire. He stood up and looked around, feeling lost.
Yun Xiao could not help but think about how to relieve the pressure on him. Li Changshou chuckled and pretended to be fine. He looked exhausted and hinted at her with his words, but he only gave in halfway…
Soon, he lay on his side with his back facing Yun Xiao. He rested his head on Yun Xiao’s slender legs and enjoyed the fairy’s ma.s.sage. He squinted comfortably.
Yun Xiao naturally knew that he was deliberately teasing him, but she did not expose him. She released some immortal power from her fingertips and helped Li Changshou relieve the fatigue of his Dao Body.
That situation was equivalent to Li Changshou handing his life to Yun Xiao.
He seemed to be enjoying himself, but he was actually under a lot of psychological pressure. He was not purely happy…
Yes, ordinary immortals could not imagine the joy of the Venus Sovereign.
The immortal senses of the experts from the Dao Sect in the distance captured this scene. They smiled. Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and sighed. He looked at the G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit and quickly looked away.
They had clearly already secretly become Dao companions, but they were not as close to each other as Dao companions.
The Great Daoist Master adjusted his breathing and stood up. He looked around the Xuandu City and began to use the Dao Transformation technique.
He drew out wisps of Mysterious Yellow Qi from the Mysterious Yellow PaG.o.da and took out the Yin and Yang Qi from the Taiji Painting. Then, he poured some water and scattered some soil. He took a few rusty weapons and retrieved the wind in the sky.
He formed hand seals with both hands and slowly exhaled a breath of living aura. He took out a stack of talismans refined by the Grand Supreme Elder from his sleeve and threw them into the colorful cloud in front of him.
Not long after, Dao soldiers with yellow scarves on their heads jumped out and knelt down to the Great Daoist Master. Then, they turned around and rushed to various places in the Xuandu City.
The Great Daoist Master sighed and said, “I’m afraid it will take a long time to recover.”
“Why don’t we make more preparations?” Zhao Gongming stood up and looked at Li Changshou. He smiled and said, “It’s rare for us to come here. Why don’t we make another array formation? That way, Senior Brother Xuan Du will be more relaxed.”
The few immortals from the Dao Sect agreed. They deliberately avoided Yun Xiao and Li Changshou and pondered about the upgrade of the defensive array formation in the Xuandu City.
On the other side, Li Changshou was deep in thought. He closed his eyes and focused, forming a composite array formation for that place.
Actually, he could make some unique responses to the characteristics of the Heavenly Demons.
The original array formation structure of the Xuandu City was also the idea of the mountain-protecting array formation. However, it was a hundred times more complicated than the ordinary mountain-protecting array formations of the immortal sects.
That was considered his profession.
…
In the north of the Middle Continent, on an immortal mountain surrounded by clouds near the gathering place of the demons,
Groups of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals had set up camps there recently. More than ten demon kings who were closer to the place began to toss and turn, unable to sleep.
The mountain range would belong to the Heavenly Courts in the future. The Jade Emperor’s nephew, the third-generation disciple of Chan School, the Dao Sect’s Guardian, and the Perfected Lord of the Qingyuan Dao, Yang Jian, who had recently become famous, would temporarily stay there.
Yang Jian had chosen that place on purpose.
Firstly, it was not far from the Jade Spring Mountain. It would only take him an hour to travel by riding a cloud.
Secondly, it was closer to the demon territory. Yang Jian did not want to stop on his cultivation path. He would use the demon territory as his whetstone later.
The battle at the Western Heavenly Gate and the commotion at the spiritual mountain made Yang Jian realize a fact.
In the Primordial World, he was only a third-generation disciple of the Dao Sect.
The slap that Taibai Jinxing had casually slapped, the pressure that had been sent flying in the spiritual mountain…
The difference was huge.
However, Yang Jian did not become depressed because of that. Instead, he became more motivated.
After all, he had only cultivated for more than a hundred years. After cultivating for another few hundred years, he might be able to fight with Taibai Jinxing today after his birthday.
“Battle…”
In the study room of the Immortal Artifact Pavilion, Yang Jian sat on the window sill, arched his left leg, and placed his right leg outside the window sill. He looked at the layers of forbidden treasure pouches in his hand.
What does Taibai Jinxing mean?
He was actually very curious about the contents of the treasure pouch. However, after thinking about it, he restrained his desire to investigate it.
Yang Jian recalled his cultivation path. At that moment, he seemed to be able to find Taibai Jinxing’s shadow everywhere.
Guests would often appear in the Jade Spring Mountain.
His master did not cultivate the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, but he could always give him deeper insights.
When he went out to train, he would always encounter danger and opportunities.
The stories that ordinary Qi Refinement cultivators could only encounter in a thousand years could usually be experienced in ten to dozens of years. This gave him more insights and allowed him to walk on the path of cultivation without fear.
It was as if Taibai Jinxing had opened a huge hand and he had never jumped out of his palm.
That sense of powerlessness and depression made Yang Jian’s Dao heart lose balance a few times. He even wanted to go to the spiritual mountain to destroy the Saint’s Dao field on impulse.
However, due to his impulse, he forgot that the spiritual mountain was trying to befriend Chan School. As a result, it became a saber for the Heavenly Courts to split the Saint Sect.
One ring after another.
It was as if the layers of calculations had condensed into a few words.
Welcome to the Primordial Era.
However, because of the treasure pouch in his hand, Yang Jian felt that everything Taibai Jinxing did to him seemed to have a deeper meaning.
Especially that sentence…
“When you feel that you have fallen into such a situation again…”
It was as if Taibai Jinxing was investigating something while controlling him. He was verifying something and reminding him at the same time.
Up to now, Yang Jian felt that he had suffered from a mental illness and began to think about the deeper meaning behind these details.
Yang Jian even began to suspect that the hatred and emotions that he had previously developed were all calculated by the fellow who liked to pretend to be an old immortal.
The terrifying officials of the Heavenly Courts.
Yang Jian put away the treasure pouch and looked at the distant mountain while thinking about the future.
He was actually a little confused.
“I seem to be living for something else.”
His father had already entered the cycle of reincarnation, and his mother had already been brought to his side. His master was not too deeply implicated by his karma. Everything could be considered a good ending.
The gentle breeze brought laughter from the other rooms in the attic. Little Chan was discussing with her mother about cutting the fabric for her new clothes.
There seemed to be Heavenly Soldiers talking about the interesting matters of the Heavenly Courts in the distance. There were also Heavenly Generals who were holding onto a bronze mirror and scrutinizing it…
Yang Jian could not help but chuckle secretly. These Heavenly Generals cared so much about their appearances.
Huh?
There seemed to be something happening in the bronze mirror.
Yang Jian extended his immortal senses and saw a fairy dancing with a sword in the bronze mirror. It was quite pleasing to the eye. Moreover, the fairy seemed to be saying something to the Heavenly General.
They should be lovers.
At that moment, the bronze mirror trembled. A green ray of light shot out from the top left corner. There was a line of words written on it.
“The recorder that the general is paying attention to has already begun the live broadcast.”
The Heavenly General’s eyes lit up. He quickly slid on the bronze mirror a few times. The mirror trembled and let out a light sound of gongs and drums. The surging river beside the Heavenly River appeared.
Yang Jian could not help but be interested. He watched carefully from the side.
A figure in a bright silver armor jumped out of the image and cupped his hands outside the bronze mirror.
“Heavenly Courts’ recorder, Deputy Commander Bian Zhuang of the Heavenly River Navy, greetings! I’ll cut to the chase. Today, I’ll give everyone a cla.s.sic mortal clapper. Let the music start!”
The scene changed. A few feet away, the musicians played by the Heavenly Soldiers began to perform maniacally. The real music came from the female immortals further away.
With the rhythmic drumming, Bian Zhuang grabbed the nine-toothed rake and began a personal show.
“The Heavenly River ripples. I will sing! The Heavenly River Navy is awesome. They can subdue demons in the water!”
What is this?
Yang Jian was speechless. He snorted slightly and expressed his disinterest in such superficial content.
With a critical gaze, Yang Jian used his immortal senses to look for a while. Unknowingly, a few hours pa.s.sed.
The sun set in the west and the bronze mirror stopped. The Heavenly General frowned and muttered, “Why is my spiritual energy exhausted again? This place is too far from the Heavenly Courts. Although the Lord Star Lord allowed me to bring the bronze mirror out of the Heavenly Courts, I have exhausted too many Spirit Stones. Ah, it’s really troublesome. I can’t activate the restrictions when I’m charging my spiritual energy.”
As he spoke, he took out a Spirit Stone and placed it behind the bronze mirror. He lit up a few red and green gems on the north side of the bronze mirror.
Lord Taibai Jinxing?
Yang Jian could not help but be interested.
He was not a shy person. He leaped out of the window and rode a cloud to the Heavenly General’s side. He asked about the bronze mirror indirectly.
When Yang Jian heard that this item was widely circulated in the Heavenly Courts, the Heavenly Courts’ recorders would report any major matters in real time.
Normally, the Heavenly Courts’ recorders would pull some tricks. The most popular one was the Deputy Commander of the Heavenly River Navy, Bian Zhuang, followed by the G.o.ddess of War of the Heavenly Courts, Xuanya…
Yang Jian was puzzled. “You can use the bronze mirror to broadcast battles?”
“Yes, yes.” The Heavenly General nodded and smiled. He took out an old bronze mirror from his sleeve and demonstrated.
Unfortunately, the G.o.ddess of War of the Heavenly Courts was not very active recently. There were no more battles.
Yang Jian quickly understood the item and asked, “Then what did the Heavenly Courts recorders do?”
“You only need to report this to the Hall of Enlightenment and you will be able to obtain a special bronze mirror that can record such a scene. You can use your immortal power to bring it around and live-stream it in real time…”
The Heavenly General thought of something and immediately said, “If you’re interested, I’ll go back to the Heavenly Courts to help you apply. General Dongmu has instructed me to simplify everything regarding you.”
Yang Jian coughed and said, “I’m just a little curious… Thank you, General.”
“Sure, sure. Wait!”
The Heavenly General rubbed his hands and turned around to jump onto the cloud. He rushed back to the Heavenly Courts.
Hence, half a day later, in the immortal treasure pavilion, Yang Jian looked at the three copper mirrors in front of him and felt curious.
He put down the bronze mirror and picked up the small booklet that had five words written on it. He opened it curiously and saw the subt.i.tles inside.
Taibai Jinxing—The Direct Guide to Exquisite Content
When he opened the second page, the first sentence caught Yang Jian’s eye.
“Are you still confused about what to show the other immortals? Do you want to know what form everyone wants to see…”
Gradually, Yang Jian held the scroll and read it carefully. His mind was immersed in it and he quickly revealed a faint smile.
Interesting.
Since he had nothing to do, he could try something new. There were hundreds of immortals live-streaming in the bronze mirror every day, and no one would notice him…
What should I do?
There has to be something that others cannot do.
Yang Jian sat in front of the table and fell into deep thought. Soon, his eyes lit up, and he disappeared with the two bronze mirrors.
Three days later, the Heavenly Courts had a small livestream connection. When it was opened, one could see a figure fighting back and forth in the demonic aura that filled the sky.
Less than an hour after the live broadcast of the copper mirror was released, it attracted a large number of immortals.
“Isn’t that Perfected Lord Qingyuan?”
“The Perfected Lord is broadcasting?”
“He’s really heroic and extraordinary! Quick, tell the sisters.”
Two hours later, Yang Jian stood in front of the demon corpses on the ground. He held the three pointed, double-edged spear and stood there. Wisps of golden light emitted from the negative karma demons and surrounded his body.
At that moment, Yang Jian was too embarra.s.sed to look at the bronze mirror floating behind him. He only turned his head slightly and turned his face to close the bronze mirror.
The fairies of the Heavenly Courts expressed that they were handsome. Many Heavenly Generals felt their blood boil when they saw that. The reputation of Perfected Lord Qingyuan was famous.
Half a month later, Yang Jian found another place where the negative karma demons gathered. He activated the bronze mirror and rushed forward…
After some time, he had also figured out the secret of this place. He knew that he had to interact with the bronze mirror. After killing the demons, he had to say a few specious words. Before killing the demons, he had to say where he was going and build momentum in advance.
“Everyone, we will destroy the Demon Sealing Mountain today! A few days ago, the demon king of this place killed mortals in the southeast of the Middle Continent and devoured the souls of mortals. He could see its whereabouts with his Heavenly Eye! I will definitely kill all twelve demon kings here today!”
“Everyone, let’s flatten the nameless mountain today! Previously, I was investigating the traces of an ancient demon. Today, I finally found it. I should carry a spear and move without any worries!”
“Everyone, we’re going to the Plum Mountain today. There are many demons here…”
“There are actually human tribes here. There are many true men inside. The heavens and earth will bear witness. Everyone, please help to bear witness. Today, I, Yang Jian, will become sworn brothers with the six friends of the Plum Mountain!”
“Recently, the demons have been hiding. There are no traces of the demons. Today, I’ll walk the dogs and hunt.
Howling Celestial Dog, why don’t we spar for a while? Otherwise, punches and kicks are always difficult to satisfy.”
The two-foot-tall little white dog howled and immediately lay down to cover its eyes.
…
Moreover, when Li Changshou went to the Xuandu City, he really helped the Xuandu City design a composite defensive array. He also transferred many precious materials from the Heavenly Courts, the Dragon Palace, and the Immortal Alliance. After a delay, he spent a lot of time.
In the blink of an eye, two years pa.s.sed. Li Changshou was worried about the situation in the Heavenly Courts. He deliberately pa.s.sed through the vortex in the Xuandu City and entered the world.
That way, it would be more convenient to contact his paper effigy.
He scanned the five continents with his mind and returned to the Heavenly Courts. Seeing that the Woodens were stable and peaceful, he wanted to supervise Ling’e’s cultivation.
However, he scanned with his immortal senses and realized that there were many Heavenly Soldiers and female immortals who were not on duty in various parts of the Heavenly Courts. They were gathered together and looking at bronze mirrors.
Did something major happen?
Li Changshou’s paper effigy appeared in the depths of the Great White Palace. He opened the bronze mirror and looked at the channel with the most audience. When he saw the t.i.tle, he was stunned for a moment.
“The dream team, the Deputy Commander of the Heavenly River Navy, Bian Zhuang, and the Perfected Lord of the Qingyuan Mysterious Dao Sect have attacked the Demon race’s important North Du Mountain!”
No, no way…
The corners of Li Changshou’s mouth twitched crazily. He carefully opened the line of words. A light drum sound was heard. He saw Bian Zhuang chanting the words that were forcefully rhymed.
In the distance, demonic aura filled the sky. A figure kept charging and attacking, causing dozens of demons to be unable to raise their heads.
“Today, I want to compete with the heavens!”
“I, Bei Dushan, roar!”
“Look, Qingyuan has a wonderful Dao!”
“Kill! Thousands of enemies are free!”
“There are not many demons. So what if they are ancient demons?”
“If you have many negative karma, you can s.n.a.t.c.h your life with three sharp blades…”
Li Changshou’s hand trembled. He opened the recording area in the big bronze mirror and saw the “attention” function. He found the long number after finding Yang Jian’s personal bronze mirror mark…
It was a terrifying sight.
Li Changshou could not help but open his mouth. His mind stopped thinking. Then, he sat there paralyzed. His forehead was filled with black lines. Little White’s essence soul left his mouth.
Really!
He had used so many resources and spent a hundred years of effort to nurture a Heavenly Courts recorder?
Where’s the aloofness?
Yang Jian, where is your pride? Why are you not playing the role of the Heavenly Courts’ G.o.d of War and entertaining yourself!?!
This is atrocious.
At the same time, in a bustling city of the Shang Tribe of the South Continent, a young girl was sitting on a swing and holding a bronze mirror. She looked at the lively scene in the image and could not help but smile.
“The Heavenly Courts seem to be much more fun than the mortal world.”
In the depths of the Chaos Sea, in a place where Dao laws were gathered in chaos, he could not sense the pa.s.sage of time in the Chaos Sea. The speed of pa.s.sage of time depended on his senses.
At that moment, the Kun Peng felt that a long time had pa.s.sed. However, the mark that he had left in the “old place” was still not triggered.
Why is this child so slow? Can he really not come to the Chaos Sea to search?
The Demon Master Kun Peng squinted his slender fish-like eyes and looked at the mark on his essence soul.
That d.a.m.ned b.a.s.t.a.r.d!
When I complete your imprint, I will tear you apart! b.a.s.t.a.r.d!
His huge body erupted with surging Dao law fluctuations. A little aura appeared in the Chaos Sea.
On the path of the Primordial Beasts transforming into Chaos Beasts, the Kun Peng Demon Master was clearly at the forefront of the entire Primordial Beasts.
