After Wang Lu built the Primal Chaos Altar, the dirty old man and the others naturally settled in the Wang Family Village. The address chosen was Wang Lu's old house – of course, it was also Wang Lu's intention.
In fact, according to the original plan, they wanted to directly occupy Wang Dafu's house. That second local tyrant in the village had not done anything good in the past two years, especially that naughty brat Wang Xiaohu who colluded with bandits and caused a lot of trouble. Expropriating their property was simply justified.
However, during the spiritual energy tide, he was disturbed by a fragment of the old house and almost fell short of success. This made Wang Lu interested in the old house again.
Now that he thought about it, his memory was not clear when he was young. Perhaps many important clues were missed, and if he did not carefully examine them, he would not be able to find them. The last time he returned to the village, this house was occupied by an ignorant Publicity Envoy. When Wang Lu visited him, he almost killed the opponent on the spot. But during the whole process, even with Wang Lu's keen heavenly spirit root, he did not notice the fragment buried in the ground! Only God knows how many secrets there were here!
Unfortunately, when Wang Lu led the team to settle in this old house, he could not find any more clues.
However, he did not have much expectation, so he was not disappointed. Moreover, after settling in, there was still more work to do.
Opening the altar and preaching.
Without preaching, how could they preach? Without preaching, how could they collect the IQ tax? However, the matter of preaching could not be proposed by Wang Lu and the others. It was best to wait for the villagers to come to their door.
And the villagers, of course, had the same plan. With great difficulty, they had the opportunity to let the Immortals temporarily live in the village. How could they let go of this opportunity? On the day they settled in, Village Head Wang Qinian, along with many villagers, hurriedly came to visit. They eagerly delivered a lot of local specialties, including wine and meat. Moreover, the old Village Head also fully displayed his wisdom. From beginning to end, he did not say a single superfluous word. He did not mention anything about seeking immortality.
The next day, a bunch of local specialties were delivered to the door. The dirty old man did not refuse and accepted all of them, which made Wang Qinian very excited.
On the third day, when Wang Qinian came to visit again, the dirty old man finally opened his mouth, "Village Head, what's the matter?"
Without hesitation, the village chief said, "Immortal, please bestow me with an immortal fate!"
The dirty old man was delighted, but he pretended to be hesitant, "This …"
The old village chief immediately prostrated: "Immortal Elder, please bestow!"
"Sigh, we've received your warm hospitality these past few days, so it's only natural for us to repay you. However, regarding the Immortal Fate, it's not up to me to decide …"
As they spoke, a young man's voice was heard. "Since you've set up an altar here, there's no harm in bestowing immortal fate."
The dirty old man tactfully kowtowed, "Greetings, Sect Leader!"
"There's no need to stand on ceremony. I've yet to descend to the lower realms, and I've only sent a voice transmission to you, so there's no need to stand on ceremony … In three days, I'll be giving a lecture on the altar. As for how much you can comprehend from it, that will depend on your own luck."
Once he finished speaking, he didn't make another sound. Wang Qinian looked around in surprise. "Was that … Cult Leader?"
The dirty old man got up and nodded. "It's Sect Leader's voice from the Immortal World. Old Village Head, you're really blessed that Sect Leader is willing to preach here! Alas, even us, the elders of the sect, can't get many opportunities in a year! This time, it's mostly because of the altar. Although Sect Leader is an Immortal, in the mortal world, he walks the path of the mortal world, adhering to the principle of equivalent exchange. We've occupied the surrounding spiritual energy in your village, so we'll repay you with the Immortal Fate. "
Wang Qinian's whole body trembled with joy. For a time, he couldn't speak! That so-called surrounding spiritual energy was mysterious, but in his decades of living in the village, he didn't feel anything special about it. However, this Immortal Fate was real!
Even Wang Xiaohu, that good-for-nothing thing, after cultivating for two years in the Seven Stars Sect, a swindler sect, he was able to set fire and draw talismans. If such a True Immortal passed down an Immortal Method … his future was limitless, his real future was limitless!
—
Three days later, the small square of the Wang Family Village was already crowded with people. Hundreds of people from the village had gathered, waiting for the Immortal to preach.
Among them, there was even the shadow of Wang Fugui's family. Wang Lu didn't tell his parents about his incarnation as the Wisdom Sect's Sect Leader. After all, this was an absolute secret. Although his parents were close to him, they were just ordinary people, so it was inevitable that they would leak the secret.
Therefore, a few days ago, Wang Lu restored his original appearance. Taking advantage of the night, he returned home. After saying a few words to his parents, he pretended to go back to the mountain to cultivate, but he was reluctant to leave.
He said that this Wisdom Sect was worthy of its name. Although it was not as domineering as his Lingjian School, it was rare for them to be willing to walk in the mortal world, which was a rare opportunity for mortals to touch the Immortal Fate. However, regarding the Immortal Fate, he didn't need to be too demanding … In short, Wang Lu didn't want his relatives to be too cooperative when the Wisdom Sect started the war, but he also didn't want them to be too maverick.
Fortunately, his family's perception was not bad. Even Wang Fugui's new concubine was smarter than the ordinary villagers. Soon, she understood Wang Lu's intention, and everything that happened afterward was lukewarm. Wang Qinian came to apologize, which they accepted. Later on, he invited them to listen to the Wisdom Sect's lecture, and then Wang Fugui called his family to go out. Of course, he didn't have too much expectation for the so-called Immortal Fate. He just wanted to watch a play, which was in sharp contrast to the villagers who were looking forward to the Immortal Fate with shining eyes.
When the villagers had gathered, it was not long before the appointed time. On the temporarily built high platform, He Yun, Wu Feihua, Wen Bao, and the others had already stood in their positions, ready to fight. After a moment, the Holy Maiden also arrived. When she also stood in her position, a figure suddenly appeared on the platform. It was the Sect Leader Wang Lu, who had just descended from the Immortal World (lifted the Invisibility Technique).
As the director and lead actor of the whole play, Wang Lu showed an extremely professional accomplishment. As soon as he appeared, he released a powerful aura, which made the hearts of the villagers below the stage sink and involuntarily want to bow their heads.
Then, Wang Lu slowly opened his mouth. "Today, I will talk about the matter in the sky."
"Matter in the sky?"
Not only the villagers below the stage, even the dirty old man He Yun and the others on the stage were curious.
As for the specific content of Wang Lu's lecture, even the sect's insiders didn't know. The Holy Maiden Feng Ling wasn't interested, He Yun and Wu Feihua didn't dare to inquire about it, but Wen Bao boldly asked, and the answer he got was that it was a spoiler...
Therefore, when they heard that Wang Lu wanted to talk about the matter in the sky, they also became interested and wanted to hear what exactly was going to happen in the sky.
"There are Immortals in the sky. The so-called matter in the sky is the matter of the Immortal World, and even more so, the matter of the Immortals."
Some people below the stage nodded vigorously. They gathered here to listen to the matter of the Immortal World and the Immortals. As for the clouds and the moon in the sky, even if there were many mysteries, what did it have to do with them?
Seeing that the audience's appetite had been aroused, Wang Lu smiled and began to describe the exciting scene of the Immortal World.
The Immortal World was vast and boundless. If the Nine Regions were to enter the Immortal World, it would be like a drop in the ocean. In this vast Immortal World, there were naturally countless Immortals. The Immortals were not human, they had remarkable abilities that could move mountains and fill the seas. However, the Immortals in the Immortal World didn't have the everlasting disputes of interests like the mortal world. The Immortals lived in harmony and helped each other in cultivation. Although the Immortal World was vast and magnificent, it was calm.
The reason for this was that the Immortal World was a land of great abundance. No matter what kind of interest demand, it could be satisfied in the Immortal World. The priceless treasures in the mortal world were as common as stones in the Immortal World. In such a case, it was naturally difficult to have disputes. Moreover, the Immortals' state of mind was extraordinary, and their lifespan was endless, so why would they care about a temporary dispute?
In just a few words, Wang Lu had outlined a magnificent and vast Immortal atmosphere for the people below the stage, which fascinated the villagers.
Before this, their understanding of the Immortal World was limited to their own imagination and the speech of the Seven Stars Sect's Publicity Envoy. It must be said that the Publicity Envoy of the Seven Stars Sect was also a glib talker, but the Immortal World that they described was nothing more than a mountain of gold and silver, which was completely different from what Wang Lu described.
However, this grandiose imagination alone was not enough to completely captivate the villagers. Therefore, Wang Lu changed the topic and began to cater to the taste of the audience by talking about the life of the Immortals.
That was naturally something that would make one's heart race and blood boil.
Not to mention those who have been cultivating in the Immortal World for hundreds of millions of years, any new Immortal who ascended from the mortal world, when they set foot in the Immortal World, would have seventy-two beautiful fairies serving them with the Immortal World's Jasper Flowers and Jade Dew. From then on, they would become the exclusive property of that Immortal. And when the Immortals lived in the Immortal World, they would have a magnificent palace and a vast and boundless territory. The power of any mortal world's emperor could not be compared to even the weakest Immortal. As long as the Immortal wanted to, they could change the lives of hundreds of millions of people in the Immortal World …
This description obviously greatly lowered the style, but the audience below the stage scratched their ears and cheeks, unable to contain their joy.
Yes, this was the scene of the Immortal World, this was the treatment of the Immortal World! That mountain of gold and silver was too vulgar! How could it compare to the style of the seventy-two fairies …
Before long, Wang Lu's Immortal World came to an end. The people below the stage could not wait any longer. "May I ask, Daoist Immortal, how can we ascend to the Immortal World?"
"Can everyone cultivate to become an Immortal?"
"Daoist Immortal, do you think I have the aptitude to become an Immortal?"
"Daoist Immortal …"
Everyone began to talk at once, creating an uproar. On the stage, Wang Lu made a smiling face. He didn't stop them, but he also didn't answer. A moment later, the old Village Head, Wang Qinian, forcefully slammed his crutch on the ground. "Quiet down!"
The Village Head's prestige was still effective. Soon, the noise from the villagers subsided. The Village Head, Wang Qinian, respectfully bowed to Wang Lu, and then asked with a sinking voice, "May I ask, Daoist Immortal, us mortals … have the possibility to become Immortals?"
Wang Lu smiled. "Yes."
Wang Qinian's heart thumped wildly. Sure enough! Although the Seven Stars Sect, that devil sect, is vicious, the theory that everyone can become an Immortal is not wrong!
Excited, the old Village Head trembled as he asked, "Then, I, I can also … become an Immortal?"
Who knew that Wang Lu would shake his head. "No."
Wang Qinian was stunned. "No, you can't?"
The audience also began to talk about it. Just now, didn't they say that mortals can also become Immortals? Why couldn't Wang Qinian do it? Because Wang Qinian was not a mortal?
Wang Lu sighed. "Just now, we were talking about the matter in the sky, do you know how many layers of heaven there are?"
The audience looked at each other in dismay. How could they answer?
"So far, there are a total of nine layers of heaven in the world. These nine layers of heaven didn't exist when the world was created, but rather, they were transformed one by one."
"Transformed?"
"Yes, transformed from the mortal world. The lower three layers of the nine layers of heaven, in an era ago, were like this, the mortal world."
"What!?"
This time, not only the villagers were surprised, even the Wisdom Sect's Elders on the stage opened their mouths wide. Sect Leader, you're too good at talking!?
Wang Lu said, "After thousands of years of change in the mortal world, there is a possibility that it will ascend to the Immortal World. That is the sublimation and transformation of the entire world. At that time, everyone will become an Immortal, and from then on, the Immortal and mortal will be transformed, enjoying eternal bliss … Therefore, I said that mortals can also become Immortals."
"Then, it will take thousands of years?"
"The specific number of years is not a fixed number. The sublimation of a world doesn't need the passage of time, but the diligent cultivation of thousands of people in this world."
"Diligent cultivation of thousands of people, this … What do you mean?"
Wang Lu sighed. "Since ancient times, in the Immortal World, when there are millions of people who ascend to the Immortal World, they will be able to sublimate as a whole and integrate into the Immortal World. When the time comes, even chickens and dogs will ascend to the Immortal World. Mortals can also benefit from it … But, in the end, there must be millions of pioneers."
"Then, how many pioneers do we have in this world?"
"So far, less than a hundred."
"Ah …" Everyone was disappointed and disheartened.
Wang Lu was silent for a moment. When his depressed mood gradually spread, he asked, "Do you guys give up?"
Wang Qinian wryly smiled. "We don't dare to deceive the Daoist Immortals. Ascending to the Immortal World is something that every one of us wants. But, in this case, I'm afraid it will take thousands of years, when there are millions of pioneers, for the other prisoners to become Immortals. By that time, we would have already turned into a pile of rotten bones!"
Wang Lu said with a smile, "Why don't you want to be the pioneers?"
"Ah?"
"Among millions of pioneers, someone has to do it. Otherwise, no matter how time passes, the Boundless World will not be able to sublimate. If there is a mistake, it may fall into the Demonic World and sink forever. Since you guys want to become Immortals, why not be the pioneers? "
"This … Can we do it?"
"If we don't work hard and cultivate, we will never be able to. The sublimation of any world is walked step by step by millions of mortals. The most precious thing to a person is life. To a person, life is only once. Therefore, a person's life should be spent in such a way that when a person looks back on the past, he will not feel regret for the wasted years, nor will he feel shame for mediocrity. This way, when he dies, he can say that he gave all his life and all his energy to life's most precious cause — fighting for the sublimation of the world. "
