Chapter 368 Creating Something from Nothing
Chapter 368 Creating Something from Nothing
After emerging from seclusion, Li Lan first learned about the current situation in the Divine Realm.
"Your Highness, most of the people from the major families in the city have left, almost all of them have gone to Samsara City. Now Li Daozhi has been appointed as an elder by the Samsara Palace, and his reputation is unparalleled. Almost everyone is saying that he will become the future master of the Samsara Palace. Even the God Emperor Lan Jiuyou has bowed and gone to Samsara City!"
Jin Cheng's face was grim as he gave a detailed report on the recent situation.
“Uncle, there have been a lot of rumors circulating in the Divine Court lately. If this continues, even the Celestial Divine Court might change…”
Jin Chengyun was also extremely worried.
But Li Lan remained calm; he had anticipated all of this.
When he first came to the City of Leisure, all the God Kings gathered, and all the major powers vied to curry favor with him. In the end, they valued his status as an elder and felt that he was the most worthwhile investment among the four seed candidates.
Now that Li Daozhi has risen against the tide, it is perfectly normal for everyone to change their allegiance accordingly.
"The prince has finally woken up."
At that moment, Princess Changming also arrived. She looked at Li Lan with a complex expression in her beautiful eyes.
She had thought that Li Lan would create a surprise and perhaps reverse the downward trend.
Unexpectedly, Li Lan, like Xue Ji of Jiubian City and Miao Wuyu of Wuyu City, did not bring anything with any cause or effect.
Is it really true that my insistence was wrong?
"I wonder what Your Highness's plans are next?"
She asked.
Li Lan smiled: "There are many things governed by cause and effect. Just because there was no guidance this time doesn't mean there won't be next time..."
He neither confirmed nor denied it.
He didn't care about the comings and goings of people in the world.
"Your Highness, can you be completely honest with Changming? How confident are you that you can bring the true source to the Carefree Royal City next time?"
Princess Changming, however, pressed for an answer seriously.
"not sure."
Li Lan said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Princess Changming's expression became even more complicated. Lost in thought, she sighed softly and said, "I will not disturb Your Highness any longer."
She turned and left.
"Your Highness, if this happens, I'm afraid the support from the Heavenly Divine Court will also be cut off..."
Jin Cheng sighed.
"It doesn't matter."
Li Lan remained calm. He instructed the two to continue guarding the Xiaoyao Royal City, and then set off from the city with Dong Yaxue.
Dong Yaxue's true aura and immortal bloodline were truly too strong. Anything that came into contact with the Void Heaven Realm would cause a certain degree of annihilation. Only when she was by Li Lan's side could Li Lan use the Mortal Scripture Great Dao to suppress the fluctuations between reality and illusion.
Soon, the two arrived in front of a vast expanse of white fog.
The Sea of Reincarnation.
At this moment, Li Lan had transformed into the appearance of Dong Yatao!
"Walk."
This time, Li Lan did not follow the usual route. Instead, she had Dong Yaxue lead the way. Wherever she went, the mist instantly vanished, and everything became an illusion, with only the paths of reincarnation appearing.
Li Lan was right; the Path of Reincarnation could transcend reality and illusion, and carry the snow of Dongya.
The two set off on the road toward the Temple of Reincarnation.
And this moment.
Inside the Hall of Reincarnation.
"Still haven't been able to contact the Palace Master..."
Inside a grand hall, all the elders were filled with worry. Since that astonishing incident some time ago, they had tried everything they could.
However, the back mountain was completely silent.
There was absolutely no response!
"Has the Palace Master completely severed ties with our world?"
"The place where the Temple Master resides is eternal. Have we been abandoned?"
"No... We have served the Lord for many years, and now that the Lord's plan is about to succeed, how could it suddenly turn out like this?"
Everyone was puzzled and resentful.
"Report!"
At that moment, an urgent report arrived, and a steward rushed into the main hall.
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic!"
The elder spoke with displeasure.
"Reporting to the elders, the Sea of Reincarnation has been breached, and the Path of Reincarnation has appeared. There is... there is an extremely terrifying being approaching the Palace of Reincarnation!"
Upon hearing this, all the elders in the entire Samsara Hall were shocked and stood up in unison.
"what?"
"How is that possible!"
"Who dares to be so bold? Could it be that the ancestral god of the Imperial Star has returned?"
Everyone was shocked.
The Sea of Reincarnation is a barrier to the land of reincarnation; even during the ancient war, few could approach it.
Unless they are the top-tier demon gods or ancestral gods of the Imperial Star.
"It's a man and a woman."
Deacon's Way.
"Come, let's go take a look!"
The elder's face turned cold, and he said, "I don't believe it. Is there really some monster about to appear in the world?"
The group followed him out and arrived directly at the Bridge of Helplessness. Looking up, they saw that the vast sea of reincarnation mist had indeed disappeared, and a man and a woman were strolling leisurely along the path of reincarnation.
Who are they?
"alert!"
Everyone started to speak.
This scene is terrifying!
The Grand Elder said in a deep voice, "May I ask you two fellow Daoists, what important matter brings you here in such a high-profile manner? Do you think my Samsara Palace has no one to rely on?"
His words were laced with hostility.
Although I don't recognize these two people at all, the fact that they have broken through the Sea of Reincarnation is enough to show their domineering nature.
"You are the Grand Elder of the Samsara Palace?"
Dong Yaxue walked closer, glanced at him indifferently, a hint of mockery flashing in her beautiful eyes, and said, "What, you recognize your Lord of the Samsara Palace, but not me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her immortal bloodline erupted instantly, and a powerful golden light of faith shone brightly everywhere!
"What's going on..."
"How terrifying!"
The elders in the Samsara Hall were all powerful figures, yet at this moment, they felt a deep, soul-stirring tremor.
"You are... from the Eternal Land!?"
The Grand Elder was stunned. He reacted instantly, suddenly knelt down, and said excitedly, "Bai Daoan of the Samsara Palace pays respects to Your Excellency!"
All the other elders also knelt down and paid their respects to Dongya Xue.
"This is the exact same aura as the Palace Master..."
"No, her aura is even stronger and more terrifying than the Palace Master's. She must have come from the Eternal Land!"
They worshipped the Western Mountain Auspicious Clouds of the Reincarnation Hall day and night, so they were naturally familiar with this aura.
"No wonder such a tremendous change occurred; the boundary between reality and illusion has vanished. It turns out that the great beings of the Eternal Land have already descended..."
Grand Elder Bai Daoan already understands!
“The Void Heaven Realm has already received some of the causal elements, and this world has begun to solidify, which is why we have descended here.”
Dong Yaxue spoke exactly as Li Lan had instructed, saying calmly, "Quickly summon the person who guides the cause and effect; I want to grant him an opportunity."
Upon hearing this, Bai Daoan and the others became even more excited.
"Please wait a moment, my lord, I will summon Li Daozhi immediately!"
He spoke loudly.
Soon after.
"The envoy from the Eternal Land has arrived. Li Daozhi, please come to see him immediately!"
A decree from the Samsara Palace was sent to Li Daozhi's Samsara City.
"The people from the Eternal Land have arrived?"
Li Daozhi was overjoyed.
"As expected, they've been keeping an eye on the Void Realm. They arrived so quickly..."
Nuba also sighed softly.
“Let’s go, I’ll go with you. It’s time to meet these people.”
They set off immediately!
Soon after.
The Hall of Reincarnation.
"Li Daozhi greets Your Excellency!"
“Nüba, daughter of the Yellow Emperor, pays respects to the special envoy.”
Li Daozhi and Nüba both bowed respectfully.
Li Lan and Dong Yaxue sat upright, and at this moment, he couldn't help but feel emotional.
The identity of this Eternal True Realm Messenger is truly useful.
One Dongya Xue can truly command the world!
Dongya Xue couldn't help but glance at Nüba and asked, "Emperor Xuanyuan... are you Nüba?"
Nuwa nodded.
"I have heard of your name. The Yellow Emperor was also known as a hero. The royal court has decreed that if the Grand Sacrifice of All Gods goes smoothly, the Emperor Yan and others who are resurrected can all become immortal Dao Ancestors and establish their own lineages!"
Upon hearing this, Nüba had no doubt about Dongyaxue's identity.
This is precisely why she has been collecting relics from the Imperial Star for so many years and chose Li Daozhi as her patron.
She agreed to the Eternal Royal Court's conditions, exchanging the Void Realm for the resurrection of many ancestral gods and immortals.
Moreover, the resurrected ancestral gods will no longer be enemies of the Eternal Royal Court...
"This item is the key to the Great Sacrifice of All Gods."
Dong Yaxue took out the Life and Death Dice and said, "Since you are able to obtain so many things related to cause and effect, I will entrust this item to you. Do not fail the expectations of the Eternal Royal Court."
After a pause, she added, "Once the Pantheon Grand Sacrifice is successful, the Eternal Royal Court will not forget your contribution."
Upon hearing this, Li Daozhi was extremely excited. He knelt down and stepped forward, accepting the life-and-death dice with both hands.
"Let's go, I'd like to see what the real Xiaoyao Royal City looks like."
She spoke calmly, and Li Daozhi respectfully replied, "My lord, please follow me!"
That day, in the City of Reincarnation.
Lord Li Daozhi of Samsara City personally guided the two people from another world, acting like a tour guide with utmost respect and caution.
This scene shocked the entire Samsara Royal City.
"Who are those two? How can they have such influence?"
"Is there anyone in this world who deserves such attention from the Lord of Xiaoyao City?"
"Even the God Emperor couldn't possibly have this kind of power."
Everyone is speculating.
"That is a being from the Eternal Land..."
A figure stepped forward, a hint of melancholy flashing in his eyes, which were filled with Daoist wisdom. He said, "It seems the Lord of Samsara City is truly about to touch upon eternity..."
This person is none other than the Nine Nether God Emperor!
"The Eternal Land... what kind of place is that?"
Everyone was surprised, as they had never heard of it before.
However, they all understood that for Li Daozhi to treat them with such respect and humility, and for the Nine Nether God Emperor to be so moved, it must mean that they were from the highest realm!
"That's wonderful! The Lord of Samsara City has been valued by such a person. We will also benefit from this in the future!"
"Excellent, Li Daozhi's position as the Lord of the Samsara Palace is secure!"
People around the world were deeply impressed.
After a brief tour...
Dong Yaxue and Li Lan were arranged to stay in a secluded place in the city where no one could disturb them.
"He's not as strong as you."
Dong Yaxue looked at Li Lan, increasingly puzzled.
She now knows that Li Lan is actually one of the four chosen candidates by the Samsara Palace.
However, Li Daozhi's cultivation level is clearly inferior to Li Lan's, so why is it Li Daozhi who is the one who receives the causal object?
"I need to go to the Eternal True Realm again. From today onwards, you will stay here."
Li Lan spoke calmly.
