Chen Renfeng had no idea what a Witch-Demon King was. He still had many questions for White Crane and wanted to stop the fight first. He spoke eloquently, "Immortal, White Crane is preparing and hasn't succeeded yet. Please don't interfere. The Heavenly Dao has its own karma."
"Hmph! You little cultivator, do you know Hong Sheng has been resurrected? The Three Realms will be in eternal turmoil," White Deer reprimanded.
Seeing his plan fail, Chen Renfeng could only try to persuade her earnestly, "Immortal, please reconsider! Does Great Brahma not know about this? Does Ancestor Lu not know? Am I the only one encountering this with you?"
"This is not a coincidence, it's the Heavenly Dao's karma. Why are you interfering, Immortal?"
White Deer ignored his presumptuous words, feeling a headache from his rambling, and fell into thought.
White Crane seized the opportunity and said, "White Deer, you are also the Great King's sister. His corpse lies in the blood pool. Open your eyes and look, do you feel no shame or remembrance?" After speaking, White Crane pointed its spiritual energy at the blood pool, and the Witch-Demon King's huge, headless corpse stood up.
White Deer glanced at it, then turned her head away, scolding, "It's just a headless corpse, why should I remember him." However, her tone had softened considerably.
White Crane also retracted its wings and descended from the sky, slowly walking towards White Deer, weeping sorrowfully, "Good sister, Hong Sheng and Donghua, the two brothers, turned against each other and both perished. They fell for Great Brahma's scheme to sow discord. Don't you understand yet?"
Hearing this, White Deer lowered her head, her eyes dazed for a moment, then she suddenly retorted sternly, "Stop your nonsense!"
She had almost fallen for White Crane's Beguiler technique.
White Crane continued to weep, "We Witch-Demons have a saying: 'Whoever benefits, caused the trouble!' Good sister, when have I ever lied to you in the past ten thousand years!" She walked up to White Deer and grabbed her hands.
As their eyes met, White Deer immediately flung her away and rushed towards the door, lamenting, "I, this Immortal, will not concern myself with you. Whatever consequences arise in the future, you will deal with them yourselves. Chen Tuan, come back to Penglai with me. Bai Yu and Qing Shi have already been reborn into the mortal world."
Chen Renfeng nodded to White Crane, then saw White Deer running far away and anxiously shouted, "Immortal, I haven't ridden you yet."
White Crane pushed her hands towards the sky. When she had held White Deer's hands earlier, she had stolen her memories from the past day and projected them onto a large mirror in the air. She clearly saw White Deer and Chen Renfeng summoning their two disciples in Nine Dragon Valley.
White Crane Queen's sorrow vanished. She calmly said to Black Bear, "General, our plan continues. I will take my leave first."
With a wave of White Crane Queen's hand, two chests fell into the storage bag in her sleeve. She spread her arms and transformed into a white crane, flying out of the ice cave. Once in the air, she turned and flew southeast.
At Nine Carp Lake, Fire Dragon True Person was meditating in his wooden hut when he heard incessant crane calls outside the door. He pushed the door open and found a large wooden chest and a red jade chest placed in the courtyard.
Fire Dragon True Person looked around, finding nothing unusual. From about ten feet away, he sent out a palm strike. The lid of the wooden chest opened, and a bright light flashed.
Dozens of divine weapons flew out and hovered in the air.
Fire Dragon True Person was greatly astonished and looked around. The crane calls sounded again...
On Penglai Immortal Island, Chen Renfeng had just returned to his Hidden Immortal courtyard when he heard crane calls. White Crane was circling in the air, preparing to land.
Chen Renfeng sighed inwardly. His mount, White Crane, was also a Golden Immortal-level immortal. He had many questions he wanted to ask her.
After landing, White Crane transformed into a fairy. Her face was neither angry nor pleased, and she asked calmly, "Immortal Elder, you've just returned too?"
Chen Renfeng smiled and nodded. White Crane nodded in acknowledgment and was about to walk towards her cave when Chen Renfeng quickly called out, "Fairy, wait a moment, I have something to ask you."
"Immortal Elder, what is it?" White Crane turned her head and asked sideways.
Chen Renfeng organized his thoughts. Having witnessed White Crane's power, he was still a little afraid of her. He asked softly, "My cultivation has reached the Void Refinement Stage, and I can't make any progress. How can I break through to the Body Integration Stage?"
"What is your current Karma Value?" White Crane asked.
Chen Renfeng thought for a moment and replied, "Nine hundred and ninety thousand."
White Crane casually replied, "Body Integration Stage cultivators need one million two hundred thousand Karma Value. At that point, the Heavenly Dao's restrictions will be lifted. Once your magic power fills the Sea of Dantian, you can break through."
"Ah! Cultivator breakthroughs have Karma Value restrictions?" Chen Renfeng asked in surprise.
White Crane found his reaction strange and replied, "All registered cultivators have Heavenly Dao Karma restrictions, unless you are an evil cultivator whose spiritual energy fluctuations cannot be detected by the Heavenly Dao."
Chen Renfeng had inherited Chen Tuan's memories and knew that realm progression was related to Karma Value. He hadn't expected them to be so tightly bound. He still needed two hundred and ten thousand. How could he obtain it? Did he have to do good deeds like mortals?
Chen Renfeng tried hard to stop his wandering thoughts and quickly asked, "Fairy, how can I obtain Karma Value?"
White Crane seemed surprised and asked suspiciously, "Immortal Elder doesn't know?"
Chen Renfeng shook his head.
A proud smile appeared on White Crane's face, and she extended her index finger.
Chen Renfeng was a bit confused, not knowing what she wanted.
Seeing his confusion, White Crane took out a High-Grade Spirit Stone from her storage bag and played with it in her other hand.
Chen Renfeng immediately understood. White Crane wasn't exactly a good person either. Helplessly, he took out a High-Grade Spirit Stone from his storage bag and handed it to her.
White Crane casually put it into her storage bag and said with a smile, "Immortal Elder only needs to donate a bottle of essence blood at the Penglai Prefecture Lord's office to gain one thousand Karma Value."
"What? Donate blood!" Chen Renfeng exclaimed, finding it unbelievable.
"That's right, one bottle of essence blood for one thousand Karma Value. The immortal officials at the office will add it to the Chart of Heavenly Karma for you," White Crane replied calmly.
"Why does the office need essence blood? Is it a scheme by demons?" Chen Renfeng pressed.
White Crane snorted coldly, "Immortal Elder, you are so ungrateful. Where do you think the spiritual energy you absorb comes from? It's all transformed from this essence blood. Forget it, I won't bother explaining. I have to go back."
After speaking, White Crane prepared to leave.
Chen Renfeng quickly said with a fawning smile, "Fairy, don't be in such a hurry to leave. I want to increase my Karma Value quickly. What should I do?"
White Crane gave him a look and said, "Immortal Elder, you can buy essence blood and hand it over to the office. You can also become an immortal official. If the cultivators under your jurisdiction donate essence blood once, you will get one hundred Karma Value. The higher your rank, the more you will receive."
Chen Renfeng was stunned. What new rule was this? He suddenly remembered that Ancestor Lu had appointed Chen Tuan as the Penglai Immortal Official a few days ago, responsible for editing the Chart of Heavenly Karma for the mortal realm. So, what rank was he? How many people did he manage?
As Chen Renfeng fell into thought, White Crane turned and headed towards her cave.
"Fairy, please wait a moment, I have one more request!" Chen Renfeng shouted urgently, taking a step forward.
"Immortal Elder, just say it all at once, I still need to go back and rest!" the White Crane said unhappily.
"It's like this, I want to return to a certain place, to a specific date in time, can you do that?" Chen Renfeng asked.
After hearing this, the White Crane let out a cold sneer and replied, "Immortal Elder, you think too highly of me. Only a Great Luo Golden Immortal who cultivates the Laws of Space-Time can do this. I am merely a Golden Immortal cultivating elemental laws, my abilities are limited."
Chen Renfeng's face turned ashen after hearing this, and he stood frozen in place. Seeing this, the White Crane left on its own.
"Cultivating the Laws of Space-Time? How does one cultivate them?"
