Along with the disappearance of the golden brilliance filled with divine aura, the figure of a middle-aged man with a normal belly color and a handsome face appeared.
Then, with a flash of light, a handsome man who looked exactly the same as the original body appeared beside it. The only difference was that he was wearing a bright yellow robe with dragons embroidered on it and a crown with a beaded curtain on his head. His body was naturally radiating a faint radiance.
This new figure was none other than the Celestial Emperor's nascent soul!
"Phew, I'm finally free." The Celestial Emperor's voice was filled with emotion.
"Congratulations." Sei Itō cupped his fists.
"Many thanks to Fellow Daoist Chen for saving me." The Celestial Emperor cupped his fists in return.
"It's nothing. And it was also thanks to the Celestial Emperor's help that I was able to seal the Celestial Demon's nascent soul so smoothly. "Sei Itō smiled. Then, he looked at the Celestial Emperor's body, which was constantly overflowing with spiritual light, and asked, "Does the Celestial Emperor have any unfulfilled wishes?"
Normally, after cultivators combined their three spiritual souls and seven physical souls to form a nascent soul, there would be a total of three forms depending on the cultivation system: Yin Soul, Nascent Soul, and Yang Soul.
Among them, Yin Soul and Nascent Soul could be considered one, but because of the difference in cultivation and realm, there were two forms.
As for Yang Soul, it was the product of the nascent soul's cultivation. After passing the lightning tribulation, it combined with the heavenly lightning to produce Yang from Yin. From then on, the soul would not be afraid of sunlight. The nascent soul after the transformation of Yin and Yang would be the nascent soul of an ordinary immortal! Its main characteristic was that there was no leakage of origin. The spiritual light did not disperse and changed according to one's will. It gathered and dispersed impermanently, becoming like a real person.
Although the world of the Celestial Emperor's legend was a world of high martial arts. The cultivation of the nascent soul did not completely follow the cultivation system, but from the mellow and warm Yang aura emanating from the Celestial Emperor's nascent body, Sei Itō could clearly tell that the Celestial Emperor had passed the immortal realm and become a Yang Soul true immortal! According to common sense, even if one's body was illuminated by spiritual light, there shouldn't be any signs of spiritual qi leaking out.
Since such a situation had occurred, it could only mean one thing, and that was that the Celestial Emperor's soul had been injured in the long struggle against the Celestial Demon's soul, and was no longer able to condense Yang energy. He was about to be reincarnated!
The Celestial Thearch was silent for a while before heaving a forlorn sigh. "... It's probably just that I haven't been able to see my daughter and have a proper conversation with her."
"It's a pity that the sword I used in the past is not with me. Otherwise, I would be able to use the Body Substitution Technique to temporarily conceal myself and go see my daughter and say goodbye to her. However, I can only rely on Fellow Daoist now."
In the end. The Sky Emperor looked at Sei Itō again.
"Is that all?" Sei Itō raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Oh? Could it be that Fellow Daoist thinks that I have something else on my mind? " As a Celestial Emperor and an Emperor, he naturally had dabbled in the art of reading people. In fact, he could even be said to be very proficient in it. He instantly sensed that something was amiss from the subtle changes in Sei Itō's expression.
"If it's not too long. I have a method that can allow the Celestial Emperor to stay in this world for a while longer, "Sei Itō said with a smile.
"Oh?" The Celestial Emperor revealed an interested look.
He didn't doubt that Sei Itō was lying. Although he was the Celestial Emperor, he wasn't omniscient and omnipotent. There were so many things in the world, and there were bound to be some strange magic arts with strange effects that he didn't know about. Moreover, the one who said this was someone who had cultivated the Book of the Chaos to the tenth level. He had even less reason to doubt the words of the successor of Nuwa who had helped him seal the Celestial Demon.
Sei Itō chuckled and said, "I have an item that can fuse Yin souls and Primordial Spirits into one's body. It can also slow down the dissipation of Yin souls and Primordial Spirits. However, I'm afraid that I'll have to inconvenience you for a while."
The Celestial Emperor said in a carefree manner, "It's fine. As long as I can see my daughter before the Tribulation Transcendence, what's the harm in being inconvenienced?"
"In that case, please enter, Celestial Emperor."
Sei Itō didn't say much. He flipped his hand and took out the magic treasure left behind by the Han Dynasty Immortal Zhang Mian from Mount Shu — the Green Mirage Bottle. With a push of his palm, he activated the magic treasure's power.
A burst of rainbow light instantly shot forth from the mouth of the Azure Mirage Vase, enveloping the Celestial Thearch's soul that was in the process of dissipating.
The Celestial Emperor didn't resist and allowed the fog to wrap around him. Then, a powerful suction force pulled him back into the bottle.
"Celestial Emperor, may I know where your daughter is?" Although Sei Itō had kept the Celestial Emperor's Primordial Spirit, he didn't activate the bottle's restriction to isolate the Celestial Emperor's Primordial Spirit.
"Have you heard of the Immortal Region?" The Celestial Emperor asked.
"Of course. It's a secret realm in the Thousand Mile Swamp that's as famous as the Shura Fantasy Realm. It's rumored that as long as a mortal can enter it, they can leave the mortal world and become an immortal. Is the princess in the Immortal Region? "Sei Itō first explained the rumors about the Immortal Region, then pretended to be surprised.
"Yes." The Celestial Emperor confirmed. "I'll have to trouble you."
"You're too polite, Celestial Emperor." Sei Itō chuckled.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he put away the Celestial Emperor's Primordial Spirit, which had become a container to seal the Celestial Emperor's Primordial Spirit. Then, he turned into smoke and returned to the ground using the Earth Escape Technique. He turned into a stream of light and flew toward the Thousand Mile Swamp.
With Sei Itō's ability, it only took a moment for him to appear in the sky above the Thousand Mile Swamp.
"It's a hundred miles to the southeast." At this time, the Celestial Emperor's voice came from the Green Mirage Bottle.
Sei Itō nodded and flew toward the Immortal Region that he had explored with his spirit power. Almost in an instant, he appeared in front of the Immortal Region.
It looked like the buildings in the Western Regions in the Journey to the West. There was a large amount of immortal fog, spiritual birds, strange beasts, spiritual creatures, and many beautiful girls walking among them.
The carefree appearance of the people and the natural appearance of the surrounding people really looked like the wonderful scenery of an immortal paradise, not just because of the different spiritual energy!
Then, Sei Itō moved again and flew toward the Immortal Region.
Halfway through the flight. A huge dragon formed by the Nine Heavens' Immortal Qi suddenly appeared in the sky, roaring and rushing toward Sei Itō.
Just as Sei Itō was about to kill the dragon. The Celestial Emperor in the Green Mirage Bottle quickly stopped him, "Fellow cultivator, please wait."
Then, without waiting for Sei Itō to answer. A unique Taoist Qi aura belonging to the Innate Qian Kun Method erupted from the Green Mirage Bottle, and the Celestial Emperor shouted again, "Back off!"
Almost at the moment when the Celestial Emperor's voice fell, the surrounding Nine Dragons' Cloud Qi immediately stopped and then dissipated in the air like an illusion.
"Well, fellow cultivator, let's go in." The Celestial Emperor who shouted at the Cloud Dragon to retreat said.
Sei Itō nodded slightly and once again flew toward the platform in the center of the Immortal Region.
"Innate Qian Kun Method … That's right. After all, before the reincarnation, he was the previous Celestial Emperor Xuan Yuan, the creator of the Innate Qian Kun Method. There's no reason why this generation's Celestial Emperor can't do it. After all, this guy used his reincarnation identity very well to have an affair with the Heavenly Mother and Xuan Ji, and let one of them give birth to a child for him. The other one also died for love after learning about his reincarnation in the original work. "While flying, Sei Itō's mind wandered.
"Oh. By the way, there's also the Demon Queen of the Demon Race. Just because they met once, he captured her heart. And for a promise back then, she died for his daughter in the original work. I have to say that the Celestial Emperor's situation is really like Bi 'an in the Great Tang world and Shi Feixuan who cultivated the Swordsmanship Code. His charm is unparalleled. "
Just when he was distracted by his thoughts, he heard a soft "whoosh" sound. Four fierce winds shot toward Sei Itō like lightning.
Having been alerted, Sei Itō's eyes narrowed and a faint smile appeared on his face. With a flick of his finger, there was a muffled "puff puff puff puff" and the four shadows were sent flying at an even faster speed and crashed into a nearby building.
"Bang!"
A large area of irregular cracks appeared on the wall of the building.
But in the next moment, there was the sound of air being torn apart as a rapidly spinning axe drew a clear arc and chopped down at Sei Itō's neck.
Sei Itō chuckled and did not dodge. Instead, he grabbed the axe's handle with one hand and threw it back in the direction it came from.
"Bang!"
In the blink of an eye, the axe deeply hacked into the wall of a building. The short youth next to him, who looked like he was only a hair's breadth away from his head, turned pale with fright as he stared at Sei Itō.
Taking advantage of the youth's interception of the axe, the four people who had attacked earlier readied themselves to attack!
These four people were all men, but they were tall, short, fat, and thin. Their expressions and weapons were all different. One of them was short and thin, with a bald head and pitch-black hair on either side of his head. He wore a fish-scale armor with lotus-like petals on his collar and skirt, and a pair of copper-yellow round blades on his feet.
One of them held a three-pointed, double-edged halberd and wore a black robe with cloud patterns on it. Inside, he wore a gold-scale armor. He was tall and valiant, but his expression was cold and solemn. There was a vertical eye on his forehead.
The other one was a burly middle-aged man who also wore a tiger-head armor with a golden body and a helmet on his four limbs. The last one was a sturdy middle-aged man who wore a majestic and solemn expression. He was tall and muscular, and his clothes and expression were very similar to that of a general of a mortal dynasty. He was holding a 13-story copper pagoda in his hand.
The moment he saw them, Sei Itō immediately thought of their corresponding identities! — Nezha, Erlang Shen, Juling Shen, and Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King!
"Their appearances are very similar to the legends, but their strength …" Thinking of this, Sei Itō secretly curled his lips.
Not to mention the silly Juling Shen, just Erlang Shen alone was a legendary guy who could fight the Wise Stone Monkey Sun Wukong to a draw for three days and three nights. With the help of the third eye, he was even a little stronger than Sun Wukong. Not to mention Nezha, who could also fight Sun Wukong for a day. Even the current Sei Itō didn't dare to say that he would be able to benefit from fighting with them in the world of Journey to the West and Investiture of the Gods!
However, the four people in front of him were sent flying one by one with just four simple energy bomb attacks. It really made Ito feel that it was not worth it to be the one who carried the name of these four people.
"Mortals are not allowed to enter the Immortal Region. Otherwise, we will kill without mercy. This old man will let you live on account of your ignorance. Scram!" The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King took a step forward and shouted with a stern expression.
He looked as if he wanted to use the name of the Immortal Region to oppress others.
Sei Itō smiled faintly and ignored him.
"I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself." At the same time, the Sky Emperor who wanted to use this opportunity to see if his subordinates could protect his daughter had to say something to ease the situation.
Then, his figure flashed and appeared in front of the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King and the others.
"Pagoda-Bearing, Juling, Nezha, and Erlang greet the Sky Emperor." Then, the four quickly knelt and bowed.
"Flying Axe greets the Sky Emperor." Then, the young man who was hiding at the side quickly flew to the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King and the others and knelt down.
"Where is the Goddess?" The Sky Emperor asked.
"She is singing and dancing with the maids in the palace." Pagoda-Bearing quickly replied.
"Fellow cultivator …" The Sky Emperor nodded and turned to Sei Itō.
"Sky Emperor, go ahead and meet the Goddess. You don't have to worry about me." Sei Itō knew what the Sky Emperor wanted to say and smiled.
"Thank you very much, fellow cultivator." The Sky Emperor thanked him but did not really leave. Instead, he said to the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King and the others, "Take good care of this fellow cultivator." Then, he turned and flew to the palace where the Goddess was.
"Mister, please follow me." At this time, the Flying Axe Celestial Child stood up from the ground and invited Ito Sei.
Among the five people present, he was the most qualified to take care of Sei Itō. It couldn't be helped. Who told him to be a celestial child? His job was to take care of people. As for the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King and the others, they still had the mission of guarding the Immortal Region. In addition, the Sky Emperor had returned this time. Whether it was for public or private reasons, they could not afford to be lazy. They could only stay nearby and guard the path to the depths of the Immortal Region.
Sei Itō nodded and followed Flying Axe Celestial to another room specially used for guests.
"Please wait for a moment." Flying Axe Celestial said respectfully.
"Okay." Sei Itō replied casually, then turned and walked to the window on the side of the room. He stood at the window and looked at the environment of the Immortal Region.
"As expected of a wonderful place that connects the Immortal Realm to the mortal world. The Spirit Qi is really abundant." Sei Itō took a deep breath and praised in a low voice. Then, he thought to himself, "This place can be a transit point for me to enter the Immortal Realm and obtain the Heavenly Emperor's authority."
Time flew and an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, with a series of light footsteps, two women pushed open the door and walked into the room.
