Earth

  [Long Shan has developed hatred towards you. Current Hatred Points: 1 star.]

  Having just inherited the Mystical Power, Han Jue saw this line of words appear in front of him.

  He checked Long Shan’s information.

  (Long Shan: Perfected Grand Unity Heaven Immortal Realm, Son of the Heavenly Emperor, True Dragon Bloodline. He has the inheritance of the Heavenly Dragon Great Emperor and is a rare prodigy of an era. He has the strength to kill enemies beyond his cultivation realm. Because the Heavenly Emperor asked him to challenge you, he’s interested in you. Current Hatred Points: 1 star.]

  Son of the Heavenly Emperor?

  True Dragon Bloodline!

  The inheritance of the Heavenly Dragon Great Emperor!

  A rare prodigy of an era?

  Did he possess four Connate providences?

  Han Jue cursed silently. This was ridiculous!

  A perfected Grand Unity Heaven Immortal who could even kill enemies at a higher realm!

  This was another protagonist candidate! Feeling a sense of danger, Han Jue continued to cultivate the Destiny Sword Qi Great Wheel.

  After mastering this Mystical Power, Han Jue began to upgrade his other Sword Dao Mystical Powers. He couldn’t increase his cultivation level in the short term. He had to increase his strength first.

  He came to the Sword Dao River again and bumped into Zhang Guxing. Before Han Jue could greet him, Zhang Guxing spoke first, “The Demon Saint who caused trouble in the Heavenly Court has been captured. He’s about to suffer Heavenly Punishment. Soon, the Heavenly Court will regain peace. At that time, they will continue to clean up the Devil Race.”


  Han Jue nodded and said, “I already know. That Demon Saint was captured? Isn’t he backed by a force?”


  Zhang Guxing said calmly, “He’s only a pawn, a pawn in the game between the Buddhist Sect and the Heavenly Court. The Heavenly Court has given the entire Western Region of the Immortal World to the Buddhist Sect. The Heavenly Court needs to maintain its reputation. Thus, that Demon Saint must die.”


  The more Han Jue listened, the more it sounded like the Monkey King’s story.

  Although Journey to the West wasn’t as dark as it seemed, after the various conspiracy theories of modern-day netizens, the entire event became a Buddhist conspiracy.

  “Is that Demon Saint a monkey?” Han Jue asked. Zhang Guxing replied, “How would I know? After all, I’ve always been here. If not for you, I wouldn’t have bothered to ask.”


  Han Jue immediately understood and smiled. “My good brother, thank you for doing this.”


  Zhang Guxing harrumphed. “What brother? You’re not calling me senior now?”


  “We’re already so close. How distant must I be to call you senior!”


  “Alright, have you really thought about it? Although there’s a previous example like the Divine General, the Heavenly Emperor is cunning, temperamental, and has high standards. Perhaps you won’t be able to catch his eye.”


  “If it doesn’t work, I can only give up. Even if I can’t win, I can still escape.”


  “I felt that something was wrong with you. You don’t seem to be cultivating the Grand Unity Dao Fruit. Your Dao is more like the Six Paths of the Netherworld.”


  “I’m not sure, either. I’m not the reincarnation of a mighty figure. If there’s an opportunity, I’ll grab it.” “That’s true.”


  Then, Han Jue asked about the Supreme Buddha.

  Zhang Guxing indeed had some understanding of him.

  “Among the five Great Buddhas, the Supreme Buddha was the least utilitarian. However, he was deeply influenced by the one who established the Six Paths of Reincarnation. He felt that the cycle of life and death was the greatest Dao and that it was the true Heavenly Dao. He even repeatedly persuaded the Buddhist disciples to give up cultivating, angering the other four Buddhas. One of the Buddhas said that since he believes in the cycle of life and death, he should enter the cycle of reincarnation himself. Thereafter, the Supreme Buddha really entered the cycle of reincarnation, and there’s been no news of him since.”


  Zhang Guxing sighed while saying that. Han Jue finally confirmed that this was not a Buddhist conspiracy.

  There was really something wrong with the Supreme Buddha.

  Zhang Guxing suddenly laughed mockingly. “Since you’re so concerned about the Supreme Buddha, have you already come into contact with him? He has already reincarnated more than a thousand times, and the Buddhist Sect has no intention of bringing him back. You don’t have to worry. The Buddhist Sect can’t wait for the Supreme Buddha to fall into eternal reincarnation.”


  Han Jue smiled as he thought, Brother, you’re so calm. You can even predict this.

  He asked about Long Shan again.

  “Never heard of him.”


  Han Jue was helpless at this reply. But this made sense!

  There couldn’t be only one Son of the Heavenly Emperor. The two of them chatted for a while more before Han Jue continued forward.

  The snow in the mortal world lasted for many years. The snow contained Spirit Qi, causing cultivators to benefit. However, for mortals, this was a great disaster.

  More and more mortals died in the snow disaster.

  The land and mountains were frozen, no longer green.

  Han Jue inexplicably thought of the Ice Age.

  Could it be that Earth had also faced a great calamity before, so it welcomed the Ice Age? Was it Earth protecting itself?

  It was very likely!

  However, that was all in his previous life. Han Jue’s main goal now was to work hard to become stronger.

  The Heavenly Court would come at any time.

  Han Jue started to worry.

  He waited every day, making it difficult to cultivate calmly.

  Su Qi had already returned; he was also called back by Han Jue.

  He said that the Black Fox Demon Emperor had suffered from Qi Deviation during his cultivation, so he left very smoothly without any obstacles.

  Han Jue couldn’t help but want to laugh.

  A jinx was a jinx, after all!

  After Su Qi returned, Han Jue discovered that the Spirit Qi had multiplied. He was pleasantly surprised and immediately entered seclusion.

  It had been seven years since he had chatted with Zhang Guxing.

  Han Jue couldn’t help but feel frustrated. He stood up and walked out of the cave abode.

  Fairy Xi Xuan, Chang Yue’er, and Xing Hongxuan cultivated in their cave abodes and did not go out again.

  Han Jue found Fairy Xi Xuan.

  She let him in when she heard his voice. It had been a long time since Han Jue discussed the Dao with her.

  When he saw Fairy Xi Xuan again, Han Jue discovered that she was the same as before. She still had the aura of a fairy.

  “What made you come out of seclusion to see me?” Fairy Xi Xuan asked with a smile.

  She looked at Han Jue with a meaningful gaze.

  She wasn’t stupid. She understood Han Jue’s intentions. In the entire Jade Pure Sacred Sect, how many people could enter the Cultivate Diligently Become Immortal Mountain to cultivate?

  Han Jue smiled and asked, “Have you heard that the Heavenly Court is coming?”


  This was no secret on the Cultivate Diligently Become Immortal Mountain. Xing Hongxuan already knew, so with her relationship with Chang Yue’er, she must have told her. Since Chang Yue’er was also Fairy Xi Xuan’s disciple, she must have known already.

  Fairy Xi Xuan said, “I already know. Actually, you don’t have to stay for the sake of the Jade Pure Sacred Sect and the people of the world. You can already ascend. You should leave as soon as possible. There’s no need to fight with the immortals. As for us and the sect, this is all fate. There’s no need to put yourself in danger.

  “I’ve known you for a thousand years. I know your personality very well. You only wanted to cultivate peacefully from the beginning. You want to live forever. There’s no need to be tied down by emotions.

  “I’ve lived for so long. To be honest, I’ve already lived enough. Even if I have to die tomorrow, I’m not unresigned. The only thing I feel guilty about is your kindness. I’m afraid I can’t repay you for what you’ve done.”


  She rarely spoke so much at once.

  Han Jue smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I definitely have a foolproof plan. If I can’t win, I’ll bring the Cultivate Diligently Become Immortal Mountain and ascend together. However, are you willing to follow me?”


  Fairy Xi Xuan shook her head and laughed. “If I say no, it means that I don’t know how to appreciate your offer. That would be hypocritical.”


  Then, she changed the topic and started to talk about the past with him.

  Han Jue’s anxious heart also calmed down.

  After chatting with Fairy Xi Xuan for a few days, he went to Chang Yue’er and also chatted for a few days. His state of mind had completely recovered.

  It was useful to recall the past.

  He could remember his initial feelings again.

  After returning to the Connate Cave Abode, Han Jue was about to start to cultivate when a line of words suddenly appeared in front of him.

  (Detected that the heavenly rules of the mortal world have been shut off. The calamity of the world is about to arrive.]
