Before he left, Li Changshou solemnly entrusted the last gift from the Celestial Court to Da Yu and asked him to pass it to Suiren.
Senior Suiren did not have any family members in the Fire Cloud Cave. Li Changshou could have kept the last gift for himself, but he could not do that.
Moreover …
As a fourth-rank righteous god of the Celestial Court, a Daoist in the Tushita Palace, and the Sea God that the Jade Emperor relied on, would he lack immortal peaches?
He lacked them.
No matter how many fruits the Connate Spirit Root produced, he would still lack them!
Unfortunately, Li Changshou had carefully considered it before. In order to maintain his image as an expert of Ren School, he could not show too many needs.
He really wanted to eat peaches.
According to the rumors in the Celestial Court, the immortal peach could increase the lifespan of Qi Refinement cultivators below the Gold God. As a Turbid Immortal, he did not know if it was effective.
Ling 'e had yet to become an immortal. Eating immortal peaches would be harmful and not beneficial. It was probably because she was too weak.
He bade farewell to the Fire Cloud Cave and headed to the Celestial Court.
Li Changshou did not immediately rush to find his "opportunity numinous treasure".
Although he was filled with respect for the few human emperors, he had to investigate … a few times in advance.
He had to believe it, but he could not believe it completely.
Moreover, although Big Boss Fuxi did not deduce the location of his main body and only gave him a map, if the "destination" was exposed, the location of his main body would also be exposed.
Li Changshou had to think carefully about how to take the treasure.
He carefully recalled what he had seen and heard during the trip.
This time, he had visited the seven human sages. The one who left the deepest impression on him was naturally Da Yu, who was the most familiar with him.
After all, they had stood on the small boat for three days and three nights. According to Da Yu, they had gone through trials and tribulations together.
Senior Yu had given him a Hydrology Treasure Map and a Sea-Calming Divine Needle. He owed him a favor.
Senior Fuxi had given him a clue to find the treasure. However, Li Changshou did not dare to say if the treasure was the Copper Coin of Treasurefall.
He felt that Senior Fuxi had seen through his predictions …
The pearl given by Senior Shennong should be a treasure of the five elements. At this time, it was still impossible to determine whether it was an innate item. But later, he could rely on this item to increase the income of the Celestial Court's bean farming business.
It was impossible to bring back the Xiao Qiong Mount. If the orb was recognized, it would be too obvious.
Li Changshou showed enough respect and vigilance to every retired human emperor.
To be able to become the Human Sovereign of the Human Clan in the past, all of you were definitely not simple-minded people.
He did not know if he would have any interactions with the Fire Cloud Cave in the future, but there was a high chance that he would …
When the clouds enter the misty world, the heavenly wind will not be able to stop them.
Not long after, the Central Heavenly Gate was in sight. Li Changshou rode a cloud forward. A soldier bowed and verified his identity. He also checked Li Changshou's jade disc in detail …
Li Changshou felt much more at ease when he saw how meticulous the Heavenly Generals were.
He also praised Hua Ritian, the member of the Disciplinary Committee of the Celestial Court!
After entering the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, Li Changshou reported successfully and handed over the jade disc that he had obtained from Senior Fuxi. The Jade Emperor officially issued a decree to carry out the "sacrifice to Heaven and Earth" in the South Continent.
With Li Changshou's Sea God Sect as the foundation, it would not be too difficult to start. However, while guiding mortals to sacrifice to Heaven and Earth, it would also easily affect the incense offerings of the Dao Sect …
Li Changshou still needed to take the lead and use the name of Ren School to discuss with the eldest disciple of Chan School and the Hierarch who was in charge of teaching matters. That way, he would not have the excuse that the Celestial Court did not respect the Saints of the Dao Sect.
Li Changshou wanted to ask the Great Daoist Master to take action. Now that the Jade Emperor's decree had yet to be condensed, there was no need to be anxious.
Every decree of the Jade Emperor would take hundreds of years.
It was unknown if it was because of the return of Li Changshou's Sea God and the fact that the Dragons had obtained a small portion of the low-level Deity Positions that the Heavenly Dao and the Celestial Court had a deeper connection.
According to the immortal official of the Hall of Enlightenment, the speed at which the Jade Emperor's decree was condensed had increased by … ten percent.
Li Changshou's trip was naturally not "for nothing". Although he had already obtained many benefits in the Fire Cloud Cave, the Jade Emperor still had to reward him.
The Jade Emperor had given him several treasures to decorate the residence. That could be ignored.
The Celestial Court had given him a little merit, but it was not as much as the last time when he succeeded in slaying the demons in the South Ocean and West Ocean.
That matter was considered a catalyst. There was still a large amount of merit to be earned in the future …
Li Changshou asked to return to the residence and await his summons. The Jade Emperor watched him send him off with a smile.
The Heavenly General Hua Ritian was already waiting near the Lingxiao Hall. After meeting Li Changshou by chance, they rode a cloud back to the Sea God Residence.
The two incarnations looked at each other on the cloud and used the traditional technique of the Celestial Court at the same time — voice transmission.
Hua Ritian asked, "Sea God, did you see the Human Emperor, Suiren, during your trip to the Fire Cloud Cave?"
Li Changshou answered, "Your Majesty, do you have something to look for this senior? This senior seems to be recuperating. I did not see him. "
"Before I became the Heavenly Emperor, I was once ordered by my teacher to reincarnate in the mortal world. I also served under Suiren."
The Jade Emperor's eyes revealed a hint of emotion. He sighed and said, "I didn't expect that his injuries have yet to recover."
Li Changshou thought for a while and asked, "May I ask, Your Majesty, how is your cultivation level now?
Your Majesty, please don't think too much. I'm just worried … "
"Haha, don't be nervous, my dear minister. It's reasonable for you to ask that. After all, the things you have to consider are too complicated."
The Jade Emperor smiled and said, "Let's put it this way.
As long as I'm in the Celestial Court, no one can hurt me unless Teacher and a few senior brothers and sisters come personally. "
The Jade Emperor's strength was indeed unfathomable. He was also protected by the power of the Heavenly Dao and was different from other experts …
In that case, Li Changshou felt a little more at ease.
The Jade Emperor asked about dealing with Daoist Lu Ya and if Li Changshou had any good ideas.
Li Changshou had been busy searching for the Copper Coin of Treasurefall recently and did not think much about that matter. He could only deal with it casually and tactfully express his worries to the Jade Emperor.
It was very likely that there was a Saint behind Daoist Lu Ya. Unless he had something on Lu Ya and made others speechless and immediately killed him on the spot, it would be difficult to get rid of him …
Simply put, it was very difficult.
The ruler and minister of the Celestial Court kept sending voice transmissions to discuss. When they arrived in front of the Sea God Residence, Hua Ritian was satisfied and bade farewell.
The Jade Emperor is quite concerned about Lu Ya.
Li Changshou smiled and raised his eyebrows.
He rode the Sea God paper effigy back to the Sea God Residence and took out the two numinous treasures that he had obtained from Senior Da Yu. Li Changshou pondered carefully.
The greatest use of the Sea-Calming Divine Needle to him was the power of merit on it.
However, it was not easy to extract the power of merit. Li Changshou did not know how to operate it. He could only put away the metal rod temporarily.
Indeed, that sentence was true …
What's the use of this metal rod?
Li Changshou was quite interested in the Hydrology Diagram.
However, after some deductions, he felt that the treasure map seemed to be helpful to the matter regarding the Dragons. He was not in a hurry to refine it into a treasure for battle.
After putting away the treasure map and preparing to shift his attention back to his main body, Li Changshou finally understood.
Later, with the guidance of the map, he could confer many Dragons and make them the "Water Gods" of the rivers, lakes, and seas!
It was another huge merit that he could obtain but had yet to obtain.
…
Li Changshou's mind returned to his main body. He stood in front of the Pill Furnace in a daze.
If the Jade Emperor can bypass me, the Sea God, and secretly kill Daoist Lu Ya, that would be perfect.
In that case, he would not have to bear karma, nor would he have to worry about being "named" by the Lord Sage.
The God-Conferment Tribulation would also change slightly. At the very least, the terrifying Seven Arrows Book would be able to leave in advance.
The Heavenly Dao is balanced. There should not be such a perverted evil spell.
Li Changshou pinched his fingers and searched his memories.
In the God-Conferment Story, when the Zhou Nation was thinking of a way to get rid of Zhao Gongming, Daoist Lu Ya was the one who gave the Seven Arrows Book to Jiang Ziya and asked him to worship and curse Grandpa Chao to death.
However, in the stories and legends that he had heard, there were no rumors of Jiang Ziya paying any price.
The luck of the son of the Great Tribulation?
The great merit of becoming a god?
If Jiang Ziya's final destination was to be a minister of the mortal world and enjoy glory and wealth, he would not be like Li Jing, Nezha, Yang Jian, and the others who had severed their mortal relationships and gone to the Celestial Court to become a legitimate god …
Perhaps, there was some kind of unknown cause and effect relationship.
"I won't think too much about it."
Let's take the treasure first.
Li Changshou raised his hand and patted his face to cheer himself up. He snapped his fingers at the box on the bookshelf and summoned thick paper effigies. He carefully injected immortal power into them.
The Treasure-Seeking Paper Effigies attacked for the second time!
Li Changshou had always had a question — could the God-Conferment Tribulation that he knew about be changed?
As long as he found the "treasure of destiny" that Big Boss Fuxi had divined for him and saw if it was the Copper Coin of Treasurefall, he would be able to obtain the answer.
If he really obtained the Copper Coin of Treasurefall, the God-Conferment Tribulation in the future would definitely be slightly different from what he knew.
It was most likely that the general direction would not change, but the small details could be changed.
His main body meditated in the Pill Chamber to recover his immortal power. Li Changshou's mind drove the carriage driver paper effigy and sped towards the southwest with more than twenty treasure-seeking paper effigies.
Going south was sixty-six thousand, and going west was thirty-three thousand. In that case, it would be the shortest to go in a straight line.
The landmark that he needed to find was the "Headless Mountain", which was a huge mountain without a peak. Such mountains were all over the Primordial World.
The first half of the journey was very smooth. After completing the journey, he easily found the "Headless Mountain" that Big Boss Fuxi's divination had shown.
However, when he arrived near the mountain, Li Changshou could not help but frown.
This place was close to the border between the East Continent and the Middle Continent. It was still in the East Continent. The demonic aura within a radius of 500 kilometers surged into the sky. He could vaguely sense a few rather powerful auras.
Where is this?
Is the treasure I'm looking for here?
Li Changshou controlled the paper effigy that was the carriage driver and released a small paper kite. The paper kite slowly flapped its wings and emerged from the ground. It transformed into an eagle and spread its wings to soar.
Li Changshou placed a wisp of his attention on it and carefully observed the surroundings of the mountain.
This should be a town of the demons.
The top of the mountain should have been flattened by an expert using his mystical abilities to build a sturdy city fortress. There were various array formations protecting it outside, and the spiritual energy of the earth meridians was also fully used by the array formations.
In the town, there were humans, beasts, and birds.
Although there were human Qi Refinement cultivators there, there were not many of them. Most of them were beast-eared … ahem, demons who had retained some of their characteristics before they transformed.
The eagle broke through the clouds and flew over the Headless Mountain. It found a huge river.
After flying along the river for a while, he saw a valley that was enveloped by an array formation …
The treasure was there.
The valley was naturally the land of the demons. The scenery inside seemed to be not bad. Due to the isolation of the array formation, he could not detect how many experts were inside.
However, according to the distribution of the demons' forces, most of the experts of the demon race were gathered at the border of the Middle Continent in the North Continent. This place was not too far from the Duxian Gate. If there were powerful demon experts, the Duxian Gate would have probably instructed their disciples not to come here to train.
The first thought that popped up in Li Changshou's mind was to use the paper effigy's Immortal Bean Soldiers to attack that place. He could obtain treasures and gain merit.
However, this thought was quickly rejected by him.
Firstly, as one of the two ancient overlords, the demons had some accumulation. It was easy for them to fight the younger ones and attract the older ones.
Those demons were not comparable to the deep-sea demons.
Secondly, he did not know what the treasure was. It might be hidden somewhere. If the demons took it away when they attacked, it would be really troublesome.
He could not rush that matter.
He had to gather information first before coming up with a plan. When it was time to attack, he would strike with lightning speed. There was no need to seek both treasures and merit.
At that moment, Li Changshou began to secretly gather paper effigies near the Duxian Gate, the South Continent, and the East Ocean. He also transported a new batch of immortal beans from the Duxian Gate.
In just a few days, Li Changshou had already ambushed 100,000 "soldiers" around the valley. There were also more than a hundred paper effigies whose strength was comparable to the late-stage of the Heaven Immortal realm. There were also hundreds of paper effigies in charge of releasing the Immortal Bean Soldiers.
Let's not care about anything else. We'll surround them first!
Of course, those were just backup plans. Li Changshou wanted to quietly take the treasures and leave with the smallest karma and the smallest price.
The gathering of information was also carried out in an orderly manner. Li Changshou had always been patient …
At the same time, Li Changshou was doing something else in the Pill Chamber of Xiao Qiong Mount.
He wanted to make a few Gold God realm paper effigies!
In the past few days after returning from the Fire Cloud Cave, Li Changshou had been pondering over Big Boss Fuxi's guidance.
Today, he had a complete train of thought and was prepared to give it a try …
If he could create the Gold God realm paper effigy as soon as possible, he would be able to obtain twice the results with half the effort!
In his heart, Li Changshou sorted out the new idea of improving the paper effigy.
This time, the probability of success was not too high. At most, it was 60% or 70%. He did not know how the effect of the finished product would be …
However, if he did not try, he would never break through.
Li Changshou opened the pitch-black Pill Furnace and carefully cleaned it up. Then, he summoned a few paper effigies with cloth bags on their backs.
The paper effigies stood obediently on the wooden table. With Li Changshou's thoughts, the paper effigies took out piles of herbs and precious materials.
The incarnation technique that Big Boss Fuxi had given Li Changshou opened up a new train of thought.
Why did my paper effigy fall into a bottleneck?
The difficulty was that when his Gold God realm immortal power was injected into the paper effigy's body, it would become extremely unstable and constantly self-destruct.
Previously, his thoughts had been limited to strengthening the paper effigy and improving the paper effigy's restrictions.
However, after Fuxi's guidance, Li Changshou had taken a new path.
Next, he would try to add a "core" to stabilize his immortal power for his paper effigies!
A small half of his immortal power was injected into the immortal power core and was in charge of maintaining the stability of the paper effigy's total immortal power. When the paper effigy's immortal power was depleted, that small half of his immortal power could also be used for emergencies.
Although that matter was simple, how to refine the core and achieve such an effect were all difficult problems for Immortal Research …
The Dao of alchemy became the first solution that Li Changshou thought of.
The Taiqing Great Dao of Inaction and the Yin-Yang Balance seemed to be able to be used.
He combined the Great Dao of the Saint, the principles of Yin and Yang, the guidance given by Big Boss Fuxi, the reference mystical abilities given by Master Xuandu, and his rich experience from being immersed in the paper effigy technique for many years …
There was no reason for him to gain nothing!
Li Changshou quickly threw the herbs and precious materials into the Pill Furnace and began the refinement of the paper effigy's core.
Half a day later …
With a loud boom, a mushroom cloud slowly rose 1,500 kilometers east of the Duxian Gate. Half of a barren mountain was blown up.
The spirit explosion appeared again, but its power was clearly much weaker.
