Chapter 664: Chentang Transformation!

“It’s just reincarnation. Is it that serious? They’re all here.”

In front of the Cave Abode on Qianyuan Mountain.

Perfected Taiyi looked at Li Changshou, Yu Ding, and Yang Jian, who was holding a three pointed, double-edged spear in the distance and sweeping around with his Heavenly Eye. For a moment, he felt helpless.

Li Changshou said worriedly, “Check the Spirit Pearl’s fetus spirit once.”

Perfected Yu Ding nodded slowly. “Alright.”

Perfected Taiyi opened his mouth and looked like he had accepted his fate. He took out a pearl from the sleeve of his red robe.

There was a little baby sucking his thumb inside. He vaguely looked like Ling Zhuzi.

Li Changshou frowned and immediately sensed that something was amiss. He smiled bitterly and said, “Senior Brother Taiyi, how many benefits did you give Ling Zhuzi? This soul is almost pure and almost comparable to Connate lifeforms.”

Taiyi smiled and squinted. He said calmly, “Who else can take care of his disciple if he doesn’t take care of him?”

Li Changshou wanted to say something but hesitated.

It was right to take care of his disciple, but that would be a little pampering. It would be disadvantageous to Ling Zhuzi’s growth after he reincarnated.

It was naturally an extremely difficult task to help Ling Zhuzi improve his background when he was in the embryo state, let alone refined the “bottleneck” of Ling Zhuzi in advance like Perfected Taiyi had done.

Li Changshou found the effort and treasures that he had spent unimaginable.

As expected, Perfected Taiyi was also secretly a wealthy person of the Primordial World.

He noted it in his notebook.

Perfected Yu Ding asked, “Senior Brother, do you know where Ling Zhuzi should reincarnate?”

“Mr. and Mrs. Li Jing at Chen Tang Pass.”

Perfected Taiyi retracted his fetus spirit and chuckled with his hands behind his back. There was a hint of mockery in his eyes. He sighed and said, “I helped my disciple reincarnate. As I was doing so, I inexplicably lost a book. Is that so, Li Jing’s godfather?”

Li Changshou could not help but blush. He hurriedly said, “That was just a misunderstanding. A misunderstanding.”

Perfected Yu Ding said, “Why Li Jing?”

“Actually, I don’t know either.” Perfected Taiyi shook his head. “This thought appeared on its own a few days ago. I checked for a long time and concluded that it should be an external thought.”

In other words, he was referring to the arrangements of the Heavenly Dao.

Yu Ding, Taiyi, and Yang Jian looked at Li Changshou. Li Changshou spread his hands and looked innocent.

Heavenly Dao.

Don’t try to understand it. Just feel it.

“Let’s go.” Perfected Taiyi smiled and said, “Find a good day and let Ling Zhuzi reincarnate in the Li family.”

“There’s no hurry.”

Li Changshou pondered for a while and said seriously, “Senior Brother, should we invite Second Uncle-Master’s decree? Should we protect the reincarnation of Ling Zhuzi?”

Perfected Yu Ding was speechless.

Lord Yang Jian was speechless.

Perfected Taiyi waved his hand. “There’s no need for that. What can happen if the few of us guard?”

“To be safe, let’s invite one.” Li Changshou persuaded earnestly. “Don’t give anyone any chance to plot against us. It’s better to be safe than sorry.”

“Well…”

“Senior Brother, you only have Ling Zhuzi as your successor.”

“Alright.” Perfected Taiyi was defeated. He frowned and said, “I’ll go to Kunlun Mountain now.”

Li Changshou said, “Senior Brother Yu Ding, please accompany Senior Brother Taiyi.”

“Okay.”

Yu Ding nodded with a solemn expression. He, who trusted Li Changshou, had already fully sensed the seriousness of the matter. He pulled Perfected Taiyi and rode a cloud to Kunlun Mountain.

Yang Jian immediately wanted to follow, but he was stopped by Li Changshou.

“Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian, come with me to Chentang Pass to set up something.”

Li Changshou greeted. Yang Jian immediately cupped his fists and accepted the order. He carried the three pointed, double-edged spear and followed Li Changshou.

Li Changshou rode a cloud for a while and rushed towards the northeast of the South Continent with Yang Jian. His eyes were always filled with thoughts.

On the way, Yang Jian could not help but ask, “Lord… Uncle-Master, who is plotting against Ling Zhuzi?”

“I don’t know,” Li Changshou said slowly. “Maybe someone wants to plot against me, or maybe I’m just thinking too much. However, no matter how I deduce, I feel that someone wants to use this matter to take revenge. The possibility is quite high. There’s almost a ten percent chance.”

Uh?

Yang Jian blinked. Seeing how nervous they are now, wouldn’t it be… scheming against the clouds here?

Li Changshou pondered for a while and felt uneasy.

He carefully pondered over his current arrangements.

The paper effigy, who was a high-ranking servant, was in the Li Residence. He was not wandering around for no reason. At that moment, he was already underground in the Li Residence. Under Li Jing’s eyes, he had set up the Heaven-Severing Immortal-Slaying Array. If necessary, he could seal the Li Residence.

The latest paper effigy army, including the six Golden Core paper effigies that he could mobilize, had long been buried under the Li Residence.

Li Changshou did not want another tragedy to happen in Yang Jian’s family.

Taking ten thousand steps back, Li Changshou could accept that his Dharma powers and mystical abilities were inferior to those who schemed against him. He could not accept that Ling Zhuzi would be injured because he was careless.

Why did he feel that the person scheming was actually a Saint of the Western Sect?

It was very simple. The other party had sufficient motive—to take revenge.

The hatred of the Western Sect was clearly between Jie School and Ren School.

Li Jing’s kneel back then made Li Jing stand in a position that he should not have. Now, he had become the best target.

That was a serious problem that Li Changshou had only realized during his last deduction.

The Sixth Saint, whose name could not be mentioned, had once personally dealt with Yang Jian’s family. It would be reasonable if Li Jing attacked his family.

On the other hand, the three Saints of the Dao Sect would not attack the Saints of the Western Sect just because of a disciple.

Especially in the current Great God-Conferment Tribulation, which was going to explode in a few years.

At that moment, the only person who could resist the Saints of the Western Sect was the Grandmaster of Heaven.

However, Chan School had just pulled some strings in Chaoge City. Should he ask the Grandmaster of Heaven, Yun Xiao, Brother Zhao, and the others to protect the future golden fighter of Chan School?

That made no sense.

The Great Daoist Master and his sister-in-law, Kong Xuan, could go and invite them. However, in that case, the entire Ren School would attack to protect the reincarnation of a disciple of Chan School. It would also involve the pride of the Saint and the attitude of the Ren School in the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.

At that moment, it was not the time to make a choice. His teacher only tacitly agreed to protect his “adopted son’s family”.

At the end of the day, a third-generation disciple was too insignificant to the Dao Sect.

Li Changshou thought for a long time and only invited Perfected Yu Ding and Yang Jian.

He only stood on his side and wanted to take care of Ling Zhuzi, who had a deep relationship with him.

That was all he was worth.

To be safe, the more he did not want something to happen, the more likely it would happen. Li Changshou had already tacitly agreed that Ling Zhuzi’s reincarnation would not be too calm.

It was better than being caught off guard.

On the Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou knelt in front of his teacher’s portrait and invited the Taiji Painting and the Cosmic Ruler. He brought along his three-piece set of the “Universal Treasure of Ren School” and instructed Ling’e and Xiong Lingli not to go out. His main body secretly rushed to the Li Residence.

“Ah…”

On the cloud, Li Changshou sighed softly while taking Yang Jian to the east.

Yang Jian looked at Li Changshou in confusion.

Is there anything else that can stump this man?

“Yang Jian.”

“I’m here.” Yang Jian subconsciously lowered his head and cupped his fists.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “There’s no need to be reserved… Has your cultivation been stable recently? Your Dao realm seems to have become deeper. You’re also catching up to the senior brothers and sisters of Chan School.”

Yang Jian smiled warmly and replied in a clear voice, “Uncle-Master, you’re teasing me. My cultivation level is still too shallow. I only walked faster because of your guidance and Master’s guidance. My foundation is a little unstable.”

“Yes, it’s a good thing that you can tell that your foundation is unstable.”

Yang Jian was speechless.

He would be humble.

Is it really unstable?

Li Changshou took out a jade token from his sleeve and threw it into Yang Jian’s hand. He smiled and said, “This is the Dao-Slaying realm technique that I have modified recently when I have nothing to do. It can help you increase your foundation and focus on the Dao Enlightenment realm. After the Great Tribulation, I can use it more when I’m free.”

Yang Jian put away the jade talisman solemnly and said to Li Changshou, “Thank you for your guidance, Uncle-Master.”

Li Changshou waved his hand and continued, “You are now famous in the Heavenly Courts, but your reputation comes from the copper mirror system. It’s too superficial. It is time to learn to settle down. Think about it. During the recent live broadcast, have you been struggling to find new content? Do you know what to show for the immortals of the Heavenly Courts?”

“Yes!” Yang Jian immediately perked up. He frowned and sighed. “It’s really as Deputy Commander Bian Zhuang said. It’s too tiring to think about the contents of the bronze mirror every day. Therefore, I plan to broadcast it once a year in the future and spend more time consolidating myself. The demons are almost extinct tens of thousands of kilometers away from Mount E’mei.”

Li Changshou smiled and did not say anything. He did not want to continue discussing that matter.

Once upon a time, he saw that this child was groomed as his successor. In the end…

Ah, remnant thoughts.

Before the Perfected Taiyi and Perfected Yu Ding, Li Changshou’s paper effigy and Yang Jian arrived above Li Jing’s residence.

The two of them hid. Yang Jian activated his Heavenly Eye and began to observe the entire Chentang Pass.

Li Changshou looked in the direction of the East Ocean.

Under the vast waves of the East Ocean, another scheme that was synchronized with Chentang Pass was also underway. If the progress went as planned, the little dragon had already transformed into a graceful young man.

“Uncle-Master,” Yang Jian whispered, “Why do I feel that there’s a problem with the direction of the spiritual energy in Chentang Pass? The spiritual energy is trapped in the city and has accumulated for a long time.

There seems to be a hidden array, but the person who set it up is rather brilliant.”

“Yes.” Li Changshou nodded with a smile and said, “I set up the array formation.”

Yang Jian immediately felt relieved and continued scanning with his Heavenly Eye.

“The Exclusive Surveillance System of Perfected Lord Qingyuan. There are no blind spots and no omissions. Search ten thousand times and wait for a long time.”

After remaining silent for about an hour, Yang Jian asked, “Uncle-Master, is the beautiful woman in the backyard of the Li Residence the mother of Senior Brother Ling Zhuzi’s reincarnation?”

“Why? Did you see anything?”

Yang Jian said, “I saw that she has an embryo in her abdomen and is already pregnant. However, the future of the fetus spirit should be waiting for Senior Brother Ling Zhuzi’s essence soul.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Ling Zhuzi was trapped back then because he, Ling Zhuzi, had obtained the Dao. His Dao base was lacking, and it was most appropriate for him to transform into a human to cultivate. That was why he reincarnated today.”

“But Uncle-Master, why are we so nervous?”

Yang Jian lowered his voice and asked softly, “Did the Netherworld not allow it?”

Li Changshou silently took out a Life and Death Book from his sleeve and displayed it. Then, he calmly put it away.

Yang Jian’s expression was very complicated.

Li Changshou smiled and waited for Perfected Taiyi and Yu Ding to arrive.

After about half a day, Perfected Taiyi and Perfected Yu Ding arrived together. Both of them looked relaxed. Clearly, the matter of seeking the Saint’s decree was progressing smoothly.

Li Changshou and his two senior brothers bowed and smiled. “Are you done?”

“Alright.” Perfected Taiyi smiled and said, “Ling Zhuzi has already been plated with the Dao runes of a Saint.”

Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief and made an inviting gesture. “It will be a good day in six hours. Please.”

At that moment, the three disciples of the Saints of Chan School and Ren School, as well as the grand-disciple of the Saint, hid in the sky above the Li Residence. They chatted and discussed the Dao, waiting for the auspicious hour to arrive.

As the moment approached, Perfected Taiyi became nervous for some reason.

“Changgeng, how should we arrange the reincarnation?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Arrange what you need to do. As long as you cast the fetus spirit from the cloud and send it into the pearl embryo in the Yin Shi’s stomach, he will be reincarnated once the pearl embryo has a heartbeat. There’s no need to do anything else.”

Li Changshou paused and looked down at the Li Residence. He sized up the distance between the cloud and Yin Shi.

It was not safe.

“In that case,” Li Changshou said, “Let’s spend more effort. Later, Yang Jian will be in charge of the lookout and Senior Brother Yu Ding will be in charge of controlling the situation. Senior Brother Taiyi and I will sneak into Lady Li’s side and personally escort the fetus spirit inside. How about that?”

Perfected Taiyi pursed his lips. “It’s really something the ministers of the Heavenly Courts can do to go to the women’s boudoir secretly.”

Li Changshou said calmly, “Anyway, it’s for Ling Zhuzi.”

“Yes, yes.” Perfected Taiyi immediately agreed. “It’s appropriate to be stable.”

Yu Ding thought that it was a good thing. Yang Jian wanted to say something but hesitated. However, he chose to accept it silently.

Therefore, the four immortals, who were both strong and good-looking, waited for a while on the cloud. When it was about time, they rode the cloud and slowly… landed on the roof of Li Jing’s backyard.

Li Changshou made a gesture and the four transparent figures began to get busy.

Yang Jian looked around and locked his immortal senses on Li Jing’s figure in the military camp.

A jade tripod appeared on Perfected Yu Ding’s chest. A strange halo spread out and monitored the mental disturbances of the living beings there.

Then, he discovered the existence of Li Changshou’s large group of paper effigies.

Li Changshou and Perfected Taiyi each used their transformation techniques to transform into two mosquitoes and quietly entered Li Jing and his wife’s bedroom.

On the soft couch, Yin Shi lay down and closed her eyes to rest. There was a bamboo slip beside her hand. Her breathing was stable and her face was peaceful.

Li Changshou secretly apologized. Perfected Taiyi secretly apologized. The two mosquitoes bowed to Yin Shi and arrived in front of the bed, turning into transparent figures.

Perfected Taiyi raised his hand and pointed at the Yin Shi who then quickly fell into a dream.

In his dream, a Daoist dressed in a red robe flew over on a cloud while carrying an infant. He threw the infant outside the window to him…

Outside the dream, Perfected Taiyi took out Ling Zhuzi’s spirit embryo and slowly pushed it towards the Yin Shi.

At that moment, the flow of time seemed to have slowed down.

Li Changshou opened his mind. His clear Dao heart had already been activated. He stared at the area within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

Three feet, two feet, one foot…

Nothing happened?

Did the Saint of the Western Sect not take revenge on me?

Suddenly!

Li Changshou’s heart palpitated. The paper effigies in the corners of the room, the backyard, the garden, and the city tower looked at the Western Army Camp!

At this moment!

The flow of time seemed to have frozen. It was an illusion caused by Li Changshou’s increased speed of processing information.

However, that was the only way he could react in time!

The world within thousands of kilometers of Chentang Pass suddenly darkened. A huge hand appeared above the military camp and grabbed at Li Jing!

Along with the appearance of the huge hand, there were words that sounded like rumbling thunder.

“This child is fated with the Western Sect.”

In the depths of the ground, Li Changshou’s eyes instantly bloomed with blue light!

The Taiji Painting instantly soared into the sky!
