Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 786

[Chapter 784 Response (Additional updates, please subscribe)]

The Emperor of Heaven is the master of the thirty-three heavens and the deity of all the smaller worlds!
Fang Xi had no doubt that he could replace the heart of Heaven with his own, and replace the laws of Heaven and Earth with the laws of Heaven!
In this way, even the immortals who descended to the world might not be his opponents.

After all, the three races of humans, demons and monsters in the earthly immortal world have joined forces to destroy true immortals before.

The power of Heaven should far exceed the combined power of humans, demons and monsters.

Whether it is the background or the high-level cultivators, it is the same!
“You still have to be a little bit more cautious, don’t waste time… Even in the small world, after all, the thousands of worlds in this place can descend at will…”

“Speaking of which, if the battles between combined cultivators are mainly based on magical powers and spells, then the battles between Mahayana cultivators already involve the power of the laws of heaven and earth…”

“If I can obtain some high-level secrets of the divine way and apply them to the immortal way, when I reach the Mahayana stage, I may be able to suppress all the Mahayana cultivators with the power of my own laws!”

Fang Xi’s eyes suddenly lit up.

At this time, his spiritual sense also captured Gan Yu stumbling all the way, but his speed was faster than a galloping horse, all the way back to Baigan Village.

Gan Yu was panicked when he returned home. Even his mother noticed something was wrong: “Ayu…”

“Mother……”

Gan Yu’s eyes turned red, and she almost shed tears, but she forced herself to hold back: “I’m fine, it’s just that the wind and sand blinded my eyes, and I haven’t visited you today…”

He didn’t dare stay at home, so he hurried out of the house and wandered around.

Before I knew it, I arrived outside Mr. Fang’s yard.

Looking at the peach blossom tree, I couldn’t help but be stunned.

“It’s Ayu, come and play a game with me.”

Fang Xi was fiddling with the chessboard. Next to the chessboard was a yellow gourd.

He tipped the gourd over, and the sweet aroma of wine spread out.

“Yes, sir!”

Gan Yu calmed himself down, sat down in front of Fang Xi, and studied the chessboard.

Fang Xi explained a few rules of Go. He was now extremely smart and remembered them after just one reading.

The two of them then started playing chess under the peach tree.

Half an hour later, Gan Yu looked at the dragon he had killed and admitted defeat: “Sir, your chess skills are superb. I am ashamed to be inferior to you…”

“Your chess skills have improved rapidly, but you are distracted and your play is not organized.”

Fang Xi shook his head and collected the chess pieces one by one: “Scholars are always calm when faced with major events. Have a drink first and think carefully about what to say…”

Looking at Mr. Fang who remained calm despite the collapse of Mount Tai, Gan Yu took a deep breath and drank the wine in one gulp.

The hot feeling went straight into the stomach through the throat, and a bitter taste spread in the mouth.

He seemed to be in a good mood. He told what happened today and the strange dream. At the end, he bowed deeply to the ground and said, “Please teach me, sir…”

“I have traveled to many places and I know that ghosts and gods are not just imaginary things. It seems that you have indeed offended the Well Dragon King.”

Fang Xi said slowly.

“What should we do then?” Gan Yu asked quickly.

“I don’t know.”

“Ah…” Gan Yu’s face was immediately filled with despair.

But Fang Xi continued, “Where there are poisonous snakes, there must be an antidote within seven steps… You have committed this crime, why bother asking me, you should ask the right person, no, you should ask the right god!”

“The God of Questioning…”

Gan Yu’s eyes lit up: “Sir, are you talking about… the God of Land?”

“Yes, the God of Land is a god of good fortune and has the responsibility to protect the land. As a villager of Baigan Village, you are naturally under his jurisdiction. Why don’t you prepare generous gifts and offer sacrifices? Even if the God of Land cannot solve this problem for you, he should be able to give you some advice…”

Fang Xi smiled.

“Thank you, sir. I’ll get ready…”

Gan Yu’s eyes lit up and he immediately bowed and took his leave.

After walking out of Mr. Fang’s courtyard, he couldn’t help but pat his head again: “So many sacrifices… How can my family have the spare money to buy three sacrificial animals…”

Gan Yu, who was full of worries, just returned home and saw his old mother killing a chicken. He was immediately shocked: “Mom, you…”

This hen is the Gan family’s treasure. They are counting on it to lay eggs in exchange for needles and thread.

Why did the old mother kill him? Isn’t that draining the pond to catch the fish?

What should I do in the future?
“My son, I am not blind. You will encounter a big event today… Take this chicken. It can also be exchanged for some money to deal with it…”

Gan’s mother warned.

“Mother……”

Gan Yu’s eyes suddenly filled with tears…

…

late at night.

Gan Yu, who had just finished offering sacrifices to the God of Land during the day, was sleeping soundly.

Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door.

He couldn’t help but get up and went to the door, where he saw a wealthy old man standing outside.

He had a childlike face and white hair, a forehead like a longevity peach, and was leaning on a peach wood cane. He also smelled like roast chicken. “Young man… I came here specially to thank you for the roast chicken.”

“You are… the God of Land?”

Gan Yu suddenly had a sudden inspiration and immediately bowed down: “God of Land, save me!”

“Alas… this matter concerns me, so please listen to what I have to say.”

The God of Land smiled kindly and spoke slowly, “I and the Well Dragon King were originally neighbors. A few days ago, I sensed the falling of divine rain, and thought it was the arrival of a certain ‘Four Seas Dragon King’ level dragon king, so I wrote a letter to the City God… As expected, the City God sent out the day and night wandering gods and the ear-reporting gods to investigate, and found that no dragons were passing through. So he concluded that the Well Dragon King must have caused wind and rain for no reason, violated the laws of heaven, and should be punished by thunder whips and demoted to a loach. When will he return to the well, when will he be able to atone for his sins and restore his position as a god…”

“ah……”

Gan Yuru was listening to the mystery, but finally understood why the loach could be eaten so easily by her.

“Although the incense offerings at the Well Dragon King Temple are in decline, it could still hold on. This time, you ate its body, which really ruined its cultivation. It’s possible that its divine veins will be cut off. This is a mortal enemy…”

The Earth God’s expression turned serious: “Although strictly speaking, you are only the human robbery of the Well Dragon King, and you have not violated the law of Taoism, but the Well Dragon King still has a wisp of soul that is immortal, and he has some good friends. If he sets his sights on you, it will indeed be very dangerous.”

“Please, God of Land, save me!”

Gan Yu bowed again.

“Alas… I am the land of Baigan Village and I have the responsibility to protect it. I should save you, but I can only protect your mother…”

The Earth God said, “As for you, I have thought of a way. That is to take the imperial examination… Not only must you take it, but you must pass the boy’s examination this fall… From then on, you will become a Taoist child and be able to be ‘granted with a Taoist certificate’. This will be considered half an official, and you will be in the eyes of the county god. Then the Well Dragon King will have a hard time retaliating against you… Remember, remember, you must pass and be granted a Taoist certificate!”

The God of Land pushed Gan Yu gently, and Gan Yu cried out “Ah!” and woke up with a start. He found himself lying on the bed and couldn’t help but whispered, “Is it a dream?”

The next moment, he sniffed and suddenly smelled the aroma of roasted chicken.

When he looked again, he found a chicken leg bone in his hand. He was startled and sincerely thanked the land temple: “Thank you, God of Land. I will remember it!”

…

“Nightmare technique?”

Under the peach tree, Fang Xi sat cross-legged, making hand gestures.

It was clearly Gan Yu who was dreaming, yet this extremely private matter seemed to be vivid in his mind.

——Since he planned to let Gan Yu explore the way first, he must have done something to him a long time ago.

In terms of divine power, the God of Land was not much different from that of a young Qi-refining cultivator, and it was impossible to tell.

“The solution given by the little hairy god is similar to one of the solutions I thought of…”

“As long as you pass the exam to become a Taoist child, you will actually be granted a Taoist certificate. However, it is not the ‘Taoist certificate’ of a real Taoist priest, but the ‘Taoist certificate’. It cannot be considered a true official position, but it can be regarded as a name left in the eyes of the City God. Once you die, there will be an investigation!”

“The Well Dragon King is called the Dragon King, but it’s just a compliment. He is a low-ranking hairy god on the same level as the Earth God… Now his divine veins are cut off, and he is only slightly better than a lonely soul. How dare he murder the Taoist boy? Isn’t he afraid of the Three-foot Dao Law? Will his body and soul be annihilated?”

When your strength is far inferior to that of your enemy, joining a larger force for protection is a good strategy to use their strength to defeat them.

Of course, Fang Xi had prepared far more countermeasures than just these.

One of them, of course, is to take his mother and flee thousands of miles away to avoid the disaster. This is a way to delay the disaster, but it is quite difficult.

Another strategy is to simply learn Taoism, kill the Dragon King of the Well, and solve the problem at the source, once and for all.

If Gan Yu chose these two strategies, Fang Xi wouldn’t mind teaching him some Qi-refining techniques and quick-learning small spells, also as an experiment.

“This world does have spiritual energy… but it is suppressed by the Dao Law and is difficult to activate…”

“But the Earth God does have this ‘spellcasting authority’, although it is the lowest level. It looks like… it has some flavor of the Western Fantasy Magic Network spell slot…”

“If you want to cultivate and enlighten yourself without any help from others…it’s possible in theory, but it’s completely impossible in reality.”

“Even if you succeed, you will still have to face the suppression of the gods. How miserable is that?”

“It’s easy to cultivate in the public sector. If I want to cultivate in this world, I’m afraid I really have to infiltrate the Dao Court…”

Fang Xi thought of some of the information revealed by the Earth God before, and he was thoughtful again: “Originally, the tightness of the network of the gods was simply terrifying… But the treatment of the City God seems to have loopholes. Yes, even in the past life, large companies all had large company problems. This Taoist court is much larger than a company, how could there be no drawbacks?”

Fang Xi originally used Shinto to monitor the world’s network. He even suspected that if he did anything wrong, he would be reported to the Heavenly Court immediately.

Then a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals descended to the mortal world, and he was successfully treated as a demon monkey…

By then, maybe I can go to the demon tribe and get the title of a great saint…

But now it seems that there is still a loophole to exploit.

The City God’s style of doing things was perfunctory, and Fang Xi smelled a hint of decay.

“Maybe, I can also operate a divine position, infiltrate the Dao Court, and rise step by step?”

“But the power of Shinto incense and vows is extremely poisonous. The locals are not afraid of it. After all, they all want to die as soon as possible, get rid of their flesh bodies, and truly become gods!”

“But I’m different. I still want to follow the path of immortality…”

“Could it be… that I can let the main body sacrifice another incarnation, or separate a strand of soul, and try to walk the divine way?”

Fang Xi touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
