It was very difficult to change a person's character, unless one continuously "sculpted" and adjusted it for a long time, but the effect was minimal.
Although Xiao Chen had changed his appearance, changed his temperament, and revealed new magic arts and divine abilities, his natural disposition had never changed. He was a powerful character that couldn't be restrained, and couldn't be suppressed. Any rules and regulations in this world couldn't trap him. There were some things in his bones that even death couldn't change.
After coming out from the Pure Land, he wanted to experience the various facets of life. He had stayed in Yindu for too long, he felt it was time to move to another place. His identity was also about to be exposed. Before he left, he decided to do as he pleased and cause a ruckus with his opponents. It could also be considered as a kind of life experience, and also a kind of training experience.
"Xiao Chen, I advise you to leave Yindu as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be too late for regrets if you lose your life."
Zhao Lin Er didn't wish for Xiao Chen to continue staying here. Seeing how confident he was, she knew he definitely had the ability to protect himself. However, she didn't want to see Xiao Chen become the focal point of Yindu. She didn't want to be roped in by other major powers. She really wanted him to listen to her advice and leave quietly. Then, she would point him in a direction. That way, she could firmly grasp this expert with unlimited potential.
"Impossible!"
Xiao Chen only had three words to reject Zhao Lin Er's suggestion.
Zhao Lin Er looked down at him from above. She seemed a little overbearing, but soon after, she withdrew her overbearing aura. She appeared very sincere as she said, "You are too arrogant, who do you think you are? Do you think you can contend against the demigod, or even the tiger clan that possesses even more powerful experts? I'm doing this for your own good. You should escape as soon as possible, I will arrange a path of retreat for you. Money, beauties, you can take whatever you want. "
The result was predictable, it was impossible for Xiao Chen to agree. On the contrary, he was filled with curiosity about how Zhao Lin Er became the saintess.
Speaking of this, Zhao Lin Er was deeply moved. She was once the imperial daughter of the mortal world, but when she arrived at the world of immortals, she had to compete with the other noble ladies, and even the girls of common birth. This made her deeply understand the importance of power.
There were many reasons for her to emerge victorious in the end. First of all, there was no need to doubt her appearance and temperament. She was once the number one beauty in the mortal world. Even in the boundless world of immortals, there weren't many who could compare to her.
Another important reason was. She has a purebred young unicorn, and according to the personal examination of some old priests of the Solar Religion, the young unicorn is actually the descendant of the mount of the legendary Solar God's daughter, Solar Saintess. It is the symbol of light and holiness.
In the entire continent, there were only three holy unicorns with this bloodline. Moreover, they were already old, they didn't expect such a young sacred unicorn with such a great background would actually return from the dragon island. To the Sun Religion, this was a kind of good news, they could publicize it wantonly. The Sun Saint was about to return to the earth, and the Sun God was watching over his people. To the Solar Sect, this was a rare opportunity to expand their religion.
The young unicorn appeared. This made the other major religions jealous for a long time. Because whenever someone or something related to the supreme gods of the various religions appears in the world. It would greatly increase the reputation of the religion. This greatly increased the power of this religion.
Of course. The fact that Zhao Lin Er had successfully become the Saintess was also closely related to these two people.
One of them was Lan Nuo. Her limitless potential. Even the Pope of the Solar Sect was shocked. He had the illustrious status of a sect's supreme leader. He solemnly received her.
He was able to do it in the shortest amount of time. From the mortal world that was extremely lacking in spiritual energy, he shattered the void and entered the world of immortals. Lan Nuo's talent could be said to be unparalleled throughout the ages. Those who entered the world of immortals in the past were all a few years older than her. In the following years, they all became the pinnacle figures who established their own sects in the immortals' mainland.
How could Lan Nuo not be valued? She protected the woman. Naturally, it would make the Pope reconsider.
The other person was that treant who came to the continent from the dragon island. He shed his treant body on the dragon island. He became a green-haired practitioner with a flesh and blood body.
He lived on the dragon island for countless years, he didn't even know how many years he used to transform into a treant. After that, he obtained the Spiritual Heart, and trained for more than ten thousand years. If not for the divine power being sealed on the dragon island, his cultivation would have been unimaginable a long time ago.
Even so, he still managed to cultivate a divine body of flesh and blood on the dragon island. It was the earth. It was the divine body! After escaping from the dragon island, he came to the immortals' mainland. There was no longer any power that could stop him, his cultivation could be said to have advanced by leaps and bounds. Even the Pope of the Sun Sect didn't dare to look down on him, he believed that his future was limitless.
On the dragon island, Zhao Lin Er was already on good terms with the divine treant in the treant's valley. After coming to the immortals' mainland, he naturally took care of her.
At first, the only factor that prevented Zhao Lin Er from becoming a saintess was that she was not from the west. However, because the Roman Religious Union was about to launch an attack on Vatican, they wanted to spread their doctrine to the east. Someone boldly suggested that maybe a certain religion could make a woman from the east the saintess to reflect racial equality. It might have an unexpected effect. Just like that, the identity of the east became an advantageous factor for Zhao Lin Er to smoothly become a saintess.
Vatican, there were many races, most of them were mixed-blood.
The Sun Sect announced that the divine light of the sun shone upon the world, the people of the Sun God were all over the world, no matter what race, no matter where, the Sun God would treat everyone equally … …
With the above factors, Zhao Lin Er naturally stood out from the crowd and became the new saintess of the Sun Sect.
"Lan Nuo … … How is she?"
Zhao Lin Er shot a glance at Xiao Chen and said, "You … … Sister Lan Nuo is very good, she broke through from Nirvana realm to Immortalis realm in the first year she came to the mainland."
Xiao Chen knew Lan Nuo's aptitude was exceptional, having such a terrifying speed did not make him surprised.
"When can I reach the peak of Immortalis?"
Seeing him talking to himself like this, the beautiful Zhao Lin Er curled her lips and said, "Don't forget, sister Lan Nuo broke through the void and came to the world of immortals by herself, she is not a stowaway like you and me. What kind of place is the mortal world? The spiritual energy is extremely scarce, it is already impossible for practitioners to reach Nirvana realm. Sister Lan Nuo managed to do it under such vile circumstances, she herself is a miracle, she is an arrogant genius that only appears once in thousands of years. No matter what kind of achievement she will obtain in the future, don't be surprised. She is not someone you can compare to. "
Xiao Chen smiled and didn't say anything. That was because his training speed was already fast enough, he could already be considered as a powerful expert among the youth generation. If he complained again, he would be struck by lightning.
He was indeed a genius in training. At least until now, among the people he had come into contact with, very few could compare to him in terms of training speed.
Only the genius among geniuses, Lan Nuo, and that intelligent girl he couldn't see through, Qingqing, could advance faster than him.
"Where is Lan Nuo?"
"You still have some conscience after all. Sister Lan Nuo didn't make a trip to the south desolate region secretly after hearing about your mishap in the Celestial City. Unfortunately, you had already disappeared at that time. Otherwise, I'm afraid you would have already become one of my knights. "
No matter how Zhao Lin Er changed, that arrogance of being a cut above others would never disappear. This was related to her background and experience. This made Xiao Chen very unhappy, but he didn't feel like bickering with her.
"Hehe, does Yinying know some information about sister Lan Nuo? But how can she be compared to me? Perform well. Let's work together and find the World's End Near at Hand. When the time comes, we will go look for sister Lan Nuo … … "
Zhao Lin Er began to scheme again. Although Xiao Chen had vaguely guessed it, he only smiled and that's all.
Xiao Chen did not continue asking about Lan Nuo. He took his leave. He believed in his own strength, and he believed in his own potential even more.
When Xiao Chen walked out of the royal garden, he kept thinking about a problem. How could he make his cultivation path smooth and far-reaching?
Under the circumstances of putting in the same amount of effort, the achievements of the cultivators were different. The fundamental reason was the problem of the individual's foundation and talent. If one wanted to increase their talent and potential, perhaps there was only one chance. That was Nie.
Exuvia, Historia, Zephyr, Nirvana, and Immortalis, these were the five major realms that everyone was familiar with.
Nirvana, just like its name, meant that everything in the past would be reset to zero, allowing the cultivator to undergo a fundamental rebirth and reach a completely new height.
Of course, most people would fail and die.
Nirvana was the most significant opportunity in a cultivator's life. If Nirvana Rebirth was successful. A small number of people's innate talents and roots would undergo a qualitative transformation, possibly rushing to an unimaginable new starting point.
Xiao Chen shook his head. It was still too early to think about it. He had yet to enter the Levitation Realm, which was the so-called Demigod Realm. The path to Nirvana was still very far away.
When he returned to the tavern, the little fatty Oxman was already waiting for him. Every time Xiao Chen saw the little fatty, he wanted to laugh.
This guy was actually very handsome, it was just that his face was too fleshy. Moreover, he had a small belly, which made him lose all his handsomeness. He gave people a feeling of silliness.
"Xiao Chen, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Come, let's go to the Spellbind Castle to see little sister Rowena. I have been in Yindu for so long, but I have only gone to see her once."
The little fatty was beaming with joy. Both of his eyes were glowing.
"Forget it, let's do it another day. My current identity is very sensitive, many people are already suspecting me. If I go like this, I'm afraid I will bring her some trouble. "
"That's true, but why do I feel that you don't want to go? If you want to go, it shouldn't be a problem to sneak in, right? Hehe … … "
The little fatty laughed and said, "Do you not like little sister Rowena? Cough cough … … My eyesight is not that high, as long as it is a beauty, I like it. How about I go and take a look for you?"
The little fatty looked simple and honest on the outside, but the way he spoke made Xiao Chen feel very speechless.
"Why don't we go together?"
The little fatty urged again.
"Forget it, you go by yourself."
Xiao Chen picked up the teacup and drank a mouthful of tea. Then he said, "Ask her if she needs any help. If there is anything she needs, don't hesitate to ask. I will naturally do my best to help. "
"Hey, why don't you say these things yourself?"
The little fatty circled around Xiao Chen twice in the room and said, "Look at how sexy and enchanting little sister Rowena is. To be able to get such a girl as his wife, that is a blessing accumulated from eight lifetimes. There is also little sister Yan Qingcheng, a peerless beauty, one of the twin pearls of the South. Oh right, there is also little sister Frosty. She is also very enchanting, a famous beauty at the Western Border, I can't help but feel pity for her. Why do I feel like I am being ignored by you? How about we go and have a chat with them one by one and get to know each other better? "
"Spring is not here yet, what's going on with our Fatty Niu today?"
Xiao Chen looked at Oxman with a smile on his face.
"Sigh!"
The little fatty heaved a sigh and said listlessly, "My grandmother sent someone to pass me a message. She told me not to make a wasted trip this time. She wants to settle her marriage, she wants to hug her great-grandson. "
"Who do you fancy? Do you want me to help you?"
"Never mind, there is no need. My standards are not high, it is easy to settle. I am just curious about you, could it be that you are trying to maintain a kind of state where you can pass through thousands of flowers without getting stained by a single leaf? "
Speaking until here, the little fatty began to analyze seriously. "That's not right, I remember that little sister Rowena had an unusual relationship with you on the dragon island. Also, little sister Yan Qingcheng was once captured by you … …"
In the end, Oxman asked suspiciously, "What exactly are you thinking?"
"Me? Duckweed floated in the air, waves splashed everywhere as they passed by. When did he get tired? When do I get tired, I will sail into a peaceful harbor and be at peace from then on. "
"This is the attitude of a playboy. Furthermore, it is the kind of fleeting, like watching thousands of flowers pass by from afar."
The little fatty stood up and said, "I am going to visit little sister Rowena, see you later."
When he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said with a smile, "Xiao Chen, I dare to make a bet with you. By the time the children of our age know how to play soy sauce, you will still be floating in the air. "
After the little fatty left, Xiao Chen shook his head with a smile. However, he also thought about it carefully.
Was he really avoiding feelings? Perhaps.
The exceptionally beautiful Rowena had once given herself to him as a gift. He did not reject her. However, he did not make any clear statement. He had once captured Yan Qingcheng. Facing the unparalleled beauty, he was moved once, but it was only words. Facing the arrogant Imperial Angel Zhao Lin Er, in order to make her Saintess lose face, he even acted impudently just now. It could be considered as a kind of flirting.
However, all of this … … seemed to be on the surface. Was his heart really moved? The answer seemed to be negative.
When he first entered the world of immortals, it was completely because of the problem of survival. And he did not have the time to consider his personal feelings. Then what about now?
"Could it be that I am really avoiding on purpose?"
Xiao Chen muttered to himself.
He suddenly realized that he was really avoiding this problem. He could play around with the world. He could flirt with beautiful women, but he would retreat in the end. He was not willing to be moved.
It was very easy to fall in love with someone. It might just happen in an instant. However, it was really difficult to forget someone. Perhaps it would take a lifetime.
Was it because he was afraid of forgetting again, that's why he didn't dare to be moved?
Xiao Chen suddenly understood where the problem was. Perhaps it was really because he didn't want to experience forgetting again.
It was indeed very hard to forget everything in the mortal world. However, Xiao Chen understood that cultivation was to cultivate the heart. He had to forget. Appropriately solving the problem of feelings was also a kind of test for cultivation. After discovering the reason today, he felt that he could no longer retreat. He should face everything head-on. However, when he thought about how to start, he was somewhat at a loss. It seemed like there was no one who could truly move his heart.
Since it was random … … and not deliberate, then he should just go and practice.
Xiao Chen unfolded the Eightfold World and left behind an afterimage on the street. Ordinary people would not be able to see his trace. In an instant, he was already several miles away.
According to legend, Yindu was an ancient historical site. It was a graveyard of gods. Even a few ancestral gods had left their traces here.
Not long later, Xiao Chen arrived at an outstanding historical site in Yindu. There was a stone tree in the middle of a stone forest in the west district. According to legend, the ancestral god Youchaoshi once meditated under this tree for nine days. This towering tree that was as thick as three houses was originally alive. It used to flourish for ten thousand years, but for some reason, it didn't become a tree god. Later on, it withered and eventually petrified.
This stone forest was very vast, and it was very easy for ordinary people to get lost in it. Only cultivators would come here, but countless years had passed, and the number of cultivators who came became fewer and fewer. This was because there were not many people who obtained anything here, only a very small portion.
Xiao Chen walked under the huge stone tree and raised his head to look at the withered petrified branches. After that, he silently meditated on the ground.
He didn't discover anything here, but he didn't want to leave just like that. He wanted to imitate the ancestral god Youchaoshi and meditate here for nine days.
On the first day, the clouds were light and the wind was gentle. The stone forest was completely silent.
On the second day, dark clouds covered the sky, but not a single drop of rain fell. The stone forest was incomparably depressing.
On the third day, heavy rain poured down. The world was covered by a curtain of water, it was a vast expanse of whiteness.
On the fourth day, it showered incessantly and drizzled sparsely.
On the fifth day … …
On the seventh day, it was already late at night. Xiao Chen still didn't find anything. He only felt that the weather was extremely abnormal. Even though he didn't find anything, he didn't feel dejected at all.
In the history of Yindu, only a few people managed to find anything here. It was normal that he couldn't find anything here.
On the eighth day, Yindu City was brightly lit. The strongest young experts nurtured by the major sects had already arrived. And from the Shang Dynasty, a few of the strongest experts from the Shang Dynasty who were said to be evenly matched had also arrived.
And the few experts from the Tiger Clan had also arrived at Yindu on this day.
Xiao Chen was still meditating without any ripples. He was wondering why the ancestral god Youchaoshi was meditating here. Why was it rumored that he once sat here without moving for nine days? And he didn't leave behind any words or marks.
On the ninth day, he still didn't find anything. The night sky was like water. In the blink of an eye, it was already midnight. The latter half of the night was completely silent. Xiao Chen seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep. But just at this time, he vaguely heard a voice, as if someone was talking.
"Refining the Cypreus Furnace … …"
