Xuanyin Wanshuang's words were direct.
What he said silenced Ji Wan.
Her ninth incarnation, which was her previous incarnation.
This was her last incarnation as the Emperor Lord.
It was indeed much more troublesome than she had imagined.
It can be said that the causes of the ninth lifetime have not yet been resolved in this lifetime.
"Yes, my ninth incarnation was indeed not very smooth."
Taking a deep breath, Ji Wan waved her hand, unwilling to discuss the topic of her previous life any further.
As for Li Taixuan, whom Xuanyin Wanshuang asked about, Ji Wan did not shy away from the question.
"That's right, my disciple's true spirit has already been reincarnated once."
In his previous life, he was a commoner among the middle-class citizens who, by fortuitous opportunity, entered the world of cultivation and was considered to have some talent and aptitude.
"He once ruled over a star-shaped territory and was granted the Dragon Fate in the lower realm."
"Later, due to some minor incident, he accidentally died and his spirit dissipated. I discovered this, protected his true spirit, and took it into the Jade Capital Immortal Realm."
"They also helped him reincarnate, and although this is his second life of cultivation, his aptitude and spiritual attainment are indeed much better."
This Li Taixuan was no ordinary person.
He was none other than the former ruler of the Great Jin Dynasty of the Eastern Desolation Star, who had once Imprisoned Dragon Middle Thousand World.
As for Ji Wan told Xuanyin Wanshuang, it was basically true.
She just didn't say that Li Taixuan's death in his previous life was inextricably linked to her.
She also didn't say that Li Taixuan's reincarnation was something she deliberately orchestrated.
Hearing this, Xuanyin Wanshuang did not delve into it further.
He nodded, finding it rather strange.
To be able to have one's true spirit protected by her own sister, Wan'er, and reincarnated to cultivate anew.
His talent is undoubtedly extraordinary; in this debate on the Great Desolation Imperial Discourse, he has gained another formidable opponent.
"Don't worry, I'll let Taixuan know."
"Once you arrive in the Great Desolation, the two of you can travel together. As for your final achievements, that will depend entirely on your individual fortuitous opportunity."
Ji Wan seemed to know what Xuanyin Wanshuang was thinking.
For immortals who practice the Reincarnation Method.
A wisp of the Emperor Lord Origin almost represents the Taiyi realm.
After all, the most dangerous of the ninth incarnations could be completely offset by the Emperor Lord Origin.
The desire to Xuanyin Wanshuang is naturally longed for.
Thank you, Wan'er.
"It's alright. We've known each other for a long time, and this Imperial Discourse is also based on the Emperor Venerable's will. The specific outcome will depend on your fortuitous opportunity."
"Yes, Wanshuang understands."
Time flies. Even you are about to complete your fourth incarnation. I still remember the first time we met...
After exchanging pleasantries, Ji Wan surprisingly began to reminisce about the past.
When Ji Wan first met Xuanyin Wanshuang, he was not yet the Emperor Lord.
Although he has already embarked on the path to becoming the Nine-Lifetime Emperor Lord.
But in that life, she was so self-assured that she knew nothing of Emperor Lord, the Jade Capital Immortal Realm, or anything like that.
At that time, she was nothing more than a handful of mortal mud in the lower realm.
"How many tens of thousands of years has it been?"
Xuanyin Wanshuang continued, following her train of thought.
She seemed to relax as she talked about the past.
She actually sat down cross-legged right in front of him, completely lacking the dignified demeanor of a goddess in front of outsiders.
A small table and a bottle of spirit wine appeared in front of him.
"Back then, you were feeding cranes at the outer Great Cloud Sect, and you received three Spirit Stone stones a month, but the steward would deduct one from your earnings."
"You're not much better."
Ji Wan raised her eyelids slightly, a hint of arrogance appearing on her face.
"You were forging iron for the inner disciple in the Earth Fire Chamber, your face covered in soot."
"Even the strips of cloth that bound my breast were scorched by Mars, leaving two rows of burnt holes that can't be washed off."
Xuanyin Wanshuang chuckled, "How can you blame me? Who told you to insist on changing to that broken iron sword? You were short five low-grade Spirit Stone. If I didn't make a couple more arm guards, how would I make up the difference?"
The two female immortals standing high in the heavens spewed out nothing but trivial and outdated nonsense.
In those days, the sky was low and life was cheap.
The seventh Ji Wan sealed his spirit very deeply.
They were nothing more than abandoned babies thrown out of ordinary farming households.
Even his Root Bone attributes are mixed, with Four Spirit Root water, wood, earth, and metal—a common, ordinary aptitude.
All she wanted was to live, to stay warm, and to avoid starvation.
And so, he stumbled and crawled his way into a cultivation sect called the Great Cloud Sect.
My acquaintance with Xuanyin Wanshuang stemmed from a despicable frame-up within the sect.
The outer sect steward lost a box of Dust Descending Pill.
They insisted that Xuanyin Wanshuang stole it and wanted to strip her clothes off and search her body.
Ji Wan just finished feeding the white cranes and was passing by the gate, carrying a ledger of spirit herbs meant for the inner sect manager.
Normally, even glancing at it twice would cause trouble.
But for some inexplicable reason, she turned back.
He slammed the ledger at the steward's feet, saying that he had seen a high-ranking official's mistress leave with a box the previous night.
The lie was full of holes.
But Ji Wan remained calm and composed, and managed to scare the steward into not daring to cause any more trouble by using a few old medicines that didn't match the account book.
Afterwards, Xuanyin Wanshuang gave her half of the cold, hard Yellow Sprout Pill.
The two of them ended up together.
In the cultivation Immortal Realm, the strong prey on the weak, and outer disciples are even more vulnerable.
During the sect competition, the two were assigned to the Demon Beast Cave to eradicate the Crypt Spider.
That place was so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and everywhere was covered in sticky nets. If you weren't careful, you would be dragged into a crack in the ground and turned into blood.
Xuanyin Wanshuang Ji Wan from a bite from behind, leaving half of her shoulder mangled and the bone exposed.
Ji Wan carried her on her back and crawled three thousand miles through the mud, wearing down all the nails on both hands, which were covered in blood and mud.
"Back then, you carried me on your back, and I lay on your back. The smell of your sweat mixed with the smell of mud was really awful."
When Xuanyin Wanshuang brought up the events of that year, her tone was calm and even, without any dramatic ups and downs.
"You spat a neckful of blood onto me, and it doesn't look any cleaner," Ji Wan sarcastically.
Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul Formation.
He experienced all the hardships of being a rogue cultivator and the dangers of Rogue Cultivator within sects.
Upon reaching the Spirit Transformation stage, the two left the Great Cloud Sect and established cave abode on an unnamed hill.
There are no other special products on the mountain, only Bitter Spirit Tea growing all over the mountains.
Xuanyin Wanshuang is naturally clean-loving, and with her slightly higher cultivation level, she likes to wash her hair naked under the waterfall in the back mountain.
Ji Wan would often sit and meditate on the bluestone by the shore, while Ji Wan also protected her.
As the steam rose, Xuanyin Wanshuang would often turn around to look at her.
" Wan'er, what do you think it's like when you reach the end of cultivation? Are there really immortal immortals?"
Ji Wan with her eyes closed.
"I don't know, but as long as I live eight hundred years longer than in the previous realm, it's worth it."
"If we become immortals, we'll claim a mountain in the heavens and plant this Bitter Spirit Tea. Anyone who tries to steal it will be killed."
"Good."
That was the first time they had ever talked about becoming immortals.
Later still, one progresses to the Dao Integration, Void Return, Mahayana, Ascension, True Immortal, and Human Immortal!
The two cultivated their way up to the realm of the Human Immortal Realm.
Together they transcend the Human Immortal Tribulation.
However, this unexpectedly awakened Su Hui,
Past events, the rise and fall of the world.
It's like the water from an upside-down river pouring into the spirit platform.
Ji Wan remembered.
She was not some ascetic struggling to survive, Ji Wan.
She is a registered immortal in the Jade Capital Immortal Realm and the Jade Balance Immortal Court Immortal Venerable, a renowned seventh-rank Taiyi Golden Immortal!
"I was quite startled at the time."
Xuanyin Wanshuang leaned against the table, her fingers lightly tapping her knees.
"You've woken up, Su Hui, and your demeanor is completely different."
"Actually, if I hadn't gone through the Human Immortal Tribulation with you back then, I would have truly faced death in my seventh incarnation."
Ji Wan calmly, "Innate wisdom is deeply locked away and cannot be broken without a major external shock."
"We have been practicing together since childhood, and our shared experiences of tribulations have stirred up my memories of past wisdom."
"So that's why you took care of me in every way later in the Immortal Realm?"
It's just cause and effect.
Ji Wan's tone was restrained, without any extra fluctuations.
When the topic of the Human Immortal Tribulation was brought up, Ji Wan's emotions became noticeably colder.
To this day, she has cultivated for nine lifetimes, and if there is any major oversight, it is the ninth lifetime.
The greatest tribulation among those nine lifetimes was the ninth lifetime's Human Immortal Tribulation.
Because in that lifetime, she witnessed everything during the Human Immortal Tribulation...
