One Link Leads to Another

The favor shown to him by Bai undoubtedly provided Zhang Xuezhou with a guarantee of knowing when to advance and when to retreat.

He was at the Mahabodhi Temple in the morning, but by noon he had returned to Chang'an City.

Not to mention Zhang Xuezhou's ability to control time travel, he rarely manages to time down to the last minute.

Zhang Xuezhou returned to Chang'an City and communicated with Zhang Hao for quite some time. He also brought Zhu Jiuyin over to assist in shaping Ren Yisheng's Yang Soul.

Divine Lord Zhenyuan collected spirit jade on Mount Milu, and Zhang Xuezhou also retrieved a few pieces, which could be used to construct a temporary Yang Soul Body.

Can I go to that other world?

Having likely communicated with Zhang Hao, Zhu Jiuyin also wanted to travel to another world.

His reasons for wanting to leave were twofold: firstly, there was nothing to miss about the Three Realms; and secondly, the real world offered the opportunity to create a physical body, which was an absolute temptation for Zhu Jiuyin, who had repeatedly sought a second life.

"Only if a powerful cultivator is willing to give up their physical body and come over can you exchange for them," Zhang Xuezhou said. "I'll try my best to find an opportunity for you, and I'll send you there when the chance arises!"

"If you have a physical body and seek to leave the Three Realms, you should be able to get there directly by enduring some hardship and fatigue," Zhang Hao said.

"As long as I still have a physical body, I have a sense of complacency. Now that my demonic body is gone, so is my mind. I'll just have to endure this until the very end before I even think about changing!"

Zhu Jiuyin looked on with a sigh.

The second life he sought was gone, and Hongjun ignored him completely. After giving up completely, Zhu Jiuyin only wanted to leave this heartbreaking and distressing Three Realms. Even if the other world was not the primordial world where Hongjun lived, Zhu Jiuyin felt that he was willing to go there.

He could barely stay in the Three Realms while accompanying Ren Anran, but his outlook on life completely changed after Zhang Hao introduced him to other worlds.

Although it was somewhat unbelievable, Zhu Jiuyin knew about the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, but he didn't expect that the world Zhang Xuezhou and the others lived in was developed in a completely different way, which made him very interested.

Zhang Xuezhou didn't rule it out directly. After all, Zhu Jiuyin had the highest combat power in the mansion, and if the other party was genuinely protecting the mansion, it could avoid risks and effectively make up for Wei Shao'er's shortcomings.

The closer it got to the end of the high-risk situation, the more cautious Zhang Xuezhou became, avoiding any possibility of unexpected events.

"The Eight Treasures Merit Pool of Mount Ling?"

"We explored the Eight Treasures Merit Pool once before, but we couldn't figure out its secrets. We only felt that the Eight Treasures Merit Pool was mysterious but not unbelievable. We never expected that there would be a cold spring hidden behind it!"

Zhang Xuezhou, Zhang Hao, and others also discussed the cold spring and the Eight Treasures Merit Pool of Lingshan.

For Zhang Hao and his group, the Eight Treasures Merit Pool was a treasure land that had been heavily touted. Zhunti and Jieyin had once boasted about it in great detail, but it was nothing more than a pond where thousand-petaled golden lotuses were grown.

The Jade Pool of Kunlun contains milky nectar, in which many goddesses bathe year-round, which helps them maintain a slow aging process and keeps them looking young, unlike other cultivators of the same age.

Outside the Fahua Palace, where Zhang Xuezhou once lived, there was a Heavenly Pool where Golden Dragon Fish once transformed into a dragon, and its consumption had miraculous effects.

There is also the Peach Garden Treasure Land where a large number of demon peach trees can be planted. The abundance of Spirit Plant far surpasses that of other secret places, making it the most top-level environment for the growth of Spirit Plant in the Three Realms.

Kunlun has so many unique features, and the Immortal Court possesses the Heavenly Fire Secret Land, where Law Treasure and weapons can be forged in the high-altitude secret land. In comparison, the Eight Treasures Merit Pool is indeed nothing special, and even the Cold Spring mentioned by Zhang Xuezhou is not surprising.

"Golden Dragon Fish is really good!"

Zhang Xuezhou felt that his achievements in Fortune Technique were related to the Golden Dragon Fish. This kind of fortuitous opportunity was mysterious and profound, and it benefited him for almost his entire life.

"You're guessing that Donghua wants to use the Cold Spring to reshape his body, so that he can have a new body like Jieyin. The probability of this happening again is extremely low," Zhang Hao said.

"I tried every method to reshape my body but failed. Could Donghua really Jieyin everything that Jieyin did so so easily?"

Zhu Jiuyin was also somewhat incredulous, after all, only one Sect Master Jieyin appeared every thousand years, and no one else had obtained a new body and entered the ranks of top cultivators in the Three Realms like Jieyin.

"Unless..."

Zhu Jiuyin pondered for a few seconds.

He and the Emperor were in complete agreement on this matter: Donghua could not possibly repeat everything the Sect Master Jieyin, but there was always a possibility that such a thing might happen.

"Unless he obtains fortuitous opportunity of luck from the creation of heaven and earth, possessing primordial power like Hu Yu, he might not be able to become a god or a saint," Zhang Hao added. "But that cold spring couldn't be the opportunity to become a saint, otherwise you and Jieyin would have already refined yourselves into saints!"

Is it the origin of the world?

Zhu Jiuyin and Zhang Hao's attitudes were becoming more conservative, and Zhang Xuezhou was genuinely worried about the possibility of something going wrong.

If Donghua truly obtains the origin of the world, the resulting amusement would be immense.

Others lack understanding of the origin of the world and may overlook the opportunity to become gods and saints, but Donghua, as an ascendant, undoubtedly possesses the ability to identify and search for such opportunities, and may even be able to obtain them.

"Jieyin and I were not able to do it before, perhaps it has changed... changed? Donghua destroyed Lingxiao and Kunlun, didn't that create something different?"

After Donghua impersonated the Emperor and dealt with Zhu Jiuyin, he also refined the Immortality Elixir. Then, he merged Lingxiao and Kunlun Secret Land to hold the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference, and laid a deadly trap in Kunlun Secret Land. Zhang Xuezhou felt that the events were not independent, but rather a series of interconnected events, with the ultimate goal of obtaining what he needed.

Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiuyin couldn't figure it out, and neither could Zhang Xuezhou, but he thought they could ask Hongjun about it.

After much deliberation, Zhang Xuezhou turned his attention to Yi Shuo.

"So, are you scared to come with me and see the outside world?"

Zhang Xuezhou smiled at the matchmaker.

Explaining the outside world to the natives of the Three Realms is a difficult task. Without sufficient knowledge and experience, one would only be considered delusional, living in one's own fantasy world.

Zhang Xuezhou had previously been unable to explain or demonstrate the other world to Yi Shuo and the others.

Everything changed after Ren Anran successfully traveled through time. After gaining Yi Shuo's trust, Ren Anran had a long enough period of communication with her, which helped to improve Yi Shuo's understanding.

"I'm not afraid. If I could have the ability to create clones of myself, I'd be willing to live with you over there, so I wouldn't be missing your other half!"

Yi Shuo's expression was somewhat calm, but beneath that calmness lay an overwhelming surge of emotion.

Zhang Xuezhou is indeed different from others, and his views are also different.

Such talent is rare in remote mountain villages. If Zhang Xuezhou possessed knowledge of another civilization in the human world, then this would be quite understandable.

I will try my best to find opportunities in the future!

Zhang Xuezhou nodded. In the real world, it is possible to cultivate unconscious human bodies, and there are also methods to shape the Yang Soul.

If one can cultivate the Great Wilderness Creation Scripture a certain extent, one can also quickly create a Yang Soul, thus preventing the soul from leaving the body and dying after changing worlds.

If someone is willing to cooperate, it wouldn't be difficult for Zhang Xuezhou and the mallard duck to switch places like this.

Zhang Xuezhou whispered for a while, while Zhang Hao floated around the side room waiting for the possible arrival of the Emperor and Empress. Zhu Jiuyin carefully inspected the room, waiting for Ren Yisheng Yangpo, which Zhang Xuezhou mentioned as the item to be exchanged.

As time travel began, darkness swept before Zhang Xuezhou's eyes.

Yi Shuo, who was captivating his soul, was instantly transported into the flower room, whereupon she became dazed and unable to move, sinking into a void.

As soon as he sensed the surroundings, Zhang Xuezhou opened the greenhouse, Hongjun quickly jumped in.

"You didn't even wait for me to call you this time, so it seems you still remember some things. I'll repeat the Cloud-Piercing Hand technique to you once more!"

Hongjun came to teach again, completely unaware that Zhang Xuezhou had already unsealed the Investiture of the Gods.

This put Zhang Xuezhou's mind at ease. Even a high-level cultivator who has ascended to a higher dimension can control the Principle, but ultimately he is not omnipotent and cannot control everything in every detail.

Zhang Xuezhou listened attentively once again to Hongjun's explanation of the Cloud-Exploring Hand technique.

After repeating this several times, seeing that Hongjun was about to leave, Zhang Xuezhou finally asked about Donghua.

"He's using the Kunlun and Lingxiao secret realms to clash?"

Upon hearing the information provided by Zhang Xuezhou, Hongjun's expression changed drastically.

"None of these fools have succeeded in the past thousand years. This Donghua found a clue to sainthood as soon as he arrived. He's destroying two secret realms to drive away the scattered primordial power, hoping to gather it together and guide it to ascend to sainthood again!"

Those who understand Donghua best are undoubtedly his peers. Even Zhu Jiuyin and Zhang Hao couldn't figure it out, but Hongjun directly gave the answer.
