Chapter 522 Translation, Translation, What Is A Surprise?

Tsk, it’s rare for there to be peace in the past few years. I wonder how Master Zhao and Aunt Jin Ling are doing

In an inconspicuous painting in the secret underground chamber of Little Qiong Peak, there was an empty painting below. The small figure that Li Changshou had transformed into was sitting comfortably on a pocket-sized round chair. He was holding a luminous cup and savoring the various mysteries after breaking through to the Dao Realm.

Cultivation was like wine in a cup. The longer one immersed in it, the more mellow and fragrant the wine would be.

Looking at himself, the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda floated up and down in his essence soul. The Merit Pool around his essence soul revealed a dazzling golden color. Although he owed two large amounts of merit, the incense offerings provided by the Heavenly Courts’ Deity Position and the Sea God Sect of the South Continent slowly but continuously increased Li Changshou’s accumulation of merit.

At this speed, before the Great God-Conferment Tribulation completely erupted, there was a high chance that the Golden Body of Merit could be condensed.

Of course, if something as terrible as “99.9%” really happened… Then, he could only be careful and did not dare to voice any opinions. Senior Brother Xuan Du had once said that the Dao Ancestor might have stopped him from condensing the Golden Body of Merit in order to let him cultivate better.

Li Changshou had always been suspicious about that.

He naturally knew that on one hand, the Golden Body of Merit was a gold token to avoid death. On the other hand, it would be affected by the Heavenly Dao. However, what the Great Daoist Master did not understand was that if Li Changshou wanted to take the last few steps on the foundation of perfection in the future, he had to understand the Heavenly Dao more deeply and affect the Heavenly Dao.

The Merit Golden Body was like a “data line” that allowed Li Changshou to be connected to the Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, Li Changshou had always suspected that the Dao Ancestor was preventing him from condensing the Golden Body of Merit because he was hindering his deeper understanding of the Heavenly Dao.

If that was the case, although Li Changshou felt regretful, he could not force it. After all, in the Primordial World, the Dao Ancestor was the strongest will apart from the will of the world. He was above the six Saints.

Speaking of which, what happened to the great factions of the Primordial World in the past few years?

In the five continents of the Primordial World, the peace of Jie School and Chan School were rare even for the Western Sect.

Outside the five continents of the Primordial World, the Immortal Alliance developed in an orderly manner. They fought against the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom step by step. The Western Sect did not do much either.

It was a rare period of peace. Today, if he did not have to observe the situation in the Heaven Ascension Hall regularly, Li Changshou would not have taken the initiative to leave the Dao Enlightenment Realm.

He put down the Night Light Cup and stood up to stretch. His mind quickly swept across the paper effigies and landed in Bai Ze’s sleeve…

Before he released his immortal senses, he felt that the Dao runes around him seemed to be colliding. The universe was also trembling slightly.

Is he fighting? Li Changshou’s immortal senses quickly spread out and sensed the chaos outside.

In the void, two batches of Qi Refinement cultivators were fighting a life-and-death battle. There were thousands of immortals on both sides. At that moment, the battle was coming to an end.

The winner would surround the other party and win. Judging from Mr. Bai’s calm and composed state, the Heaven Ascension Hall should have won the battle. Bai Ze did not fight with anyone. Instead, he hid in the dark and observed from afar.

The real high-ranking officials and advisors would never do such rough work.

Li Changshou took the initiative to expose his immortal senses. Bai Ze immediately exclaimed softly and raised his hand to look at his sleeve.

“Water God? Oh no, Moon Lord?”

Li Changshou chuckled in his heart. He only knew that Bai Ze was teasing him and did not care about such a small matter.

Whether he could advance his Deity Position and the rank would not affect the power of the Heavenly Courts that he controlled.

The military power of the Heavenly River Navy and the authority to act first and report later were actually just superficial authority. His status as an ordinary minister came from the trust of the Jade Emperor and the influence of the Tushita Palace.

Li Changshou replied via voice transmission, “Mr. Bai, what’s going on here?” “Moon Lord…”

“Call me Water God. It sounds nice hearing you call me that.”

“Okay.”

Bai Ze smiled and put his hands in his sleeves. He said warmly, “This is an immortal sect that had a conflict with the Heaven Ascension Hall three months ago. They want to snatch our territory. Water God, don’t worry. This matter will come to an end today.”

Li Changshou asked, “How are the casualties in the Heaven Ascension Hall?” “More than 20% of the Qi Refinement cultivators will die,” Bai Ze said. “Due to the tempering of the battle, their overall strength has improved.”

20%…

Under those two simple words were lives.

However, there was no way to avoid that. Only the Heaven Ascension Hall, which was created by blood and souls, could accomplish the great things in the future.

Li Changshou asked again, “Have you arranged the matters of the fallen?”

Bai Ze answered, “I’ve already made arrangements previously. However, the Heaven Ascension Hall’s current strength is insufficient. There are not enough Spirit Stones and precious materials circulating. We also lack manpower. We can’t make everything perfect.”

“No matter what, we have to do our best.” Li Changshou watched the battle. The Heaven Ascension Hall had already begun to shout, “Those who bind themselves will not die!” Many Qi Refinement cultivators from the opposing immortal sects have already begun to obediently retract their immortal powers… In the trichiliocosm, battles of this scale were common, but it was rare for one party to surround and destroy the other.

In most battles, as long as one side had the advantage, most of the Qi Refinement cultivators on the other side would plan to retreat. When one side had an advantage that was enough to secure victory, nearly half of the Qi Refinement cultivators on the other side would quickly disperse… He had put it nicely because he wanted to preserve his strength. As long as there was life, there was hope. In fact, it was just that the Qi Refinement Warriors did not have a deep sense of belonging to the Immortal Dao factions and did not want to risk their lives for it.

The battle today was naturally meticulously planned and ingenious. The Heaven Ascension Hall won smoothly and could obtain a large number of captives…

Li Changshou scanned his surroundings with his immortal senses and was attracted by the scene in another corner.

There, the fairy stood on the Seven-Colored Lotus Platform. Her boots, which were wrapped around her jade-like feet, had thick soles. She used this to make up for some of the imperfections in her figure.

Her light red tube top was about to snap. Her black silk robe was mixed with golden threads, making her skin look like snow and cold. On her slender neck was her increasingly stunning face. Although it was covered by a thin veil, it could not hide the bright color of her red lips… At that moment, she waved her slender hand and controlled a huge gourd to shuttle through the crowd, shooting out sharp sword auras. Aunt-Master Jiu is really…

The older girls, the more beautiful they become.

Actually, the biggest change to Jiu Jiu was her temperament.

Originally, there was some childishness and laziness, but now, there was some laziness but more maturity and pride. Her beauty was extraordinary, and her eyes were filled with the heart of a man.

Li Changshou praised Bai Ze via voice transmission. “If not for that huge gourd, I really wouldn’t recognize Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu.” Bai Ze smiled and said, “The Saintess has been working very hard all these years. She naturally has some returns. Water God, do you know which of the many words she said moved me the most?”

“How can I know?”.

“She said,” Bai Ze sighed softly. “It’s good that she can help him.” Li Changshou did not know how to answer. He looked at his Uncle-Master and could only say, “Mr. Bai, please take care of Aunt-Master Jiu and don’t put too much pressure on her. She’s already doing very well.”

“Do you need me to relay your message word for word?”

“Up to you.”

After saying that, Li Changshou shifted his gaze to the side. He did not see Exalted Wang Qing. Instead, he saw his Grandmaster, Jiang Lin’er, killing everyone with a huge saber. His immortal senses spread out and discovered another battleground. There were seven to eight Golden Immortals fighting. Exalted Wang Qing held his sword fingers with his left hand and released tens of thousands of sword auras. The white hair at his temples fluttered, and his black robe shone with green light. He was extremely handsome!

That was quite cool!

Li Changshou said, “Mr. Bai, is the trichiliocosm safe?”

“The Western Sect seems to want to stall for time. They are only confronting the Immortal Alliance and not attacking forcefully,” Bai Ze said. “The date of the Purple Cloud Palace’s discussion of the Great Tribulation is getting closer and closer. They should be preparing for this matter with all their might.

Is the Water God 100% confident that he can suppress the Western Sect?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Mr. Bai, you really think too highly of me. That’s the Six Saints meeting and the Dao Ancestor presiding over it. I can only say a word or two. The Jade Emperor should be the one who can really be useful. At this moment… I can’t say that I’m confident. I can only do my best.”

Li Changshou predicted that at least three of the six Saints would attack the “Heavenly Book God roll”. Although the Jade Emperor had a high chance of controlling the God roll, he was still a little unstable.

In a few decades, Li Changshou would have to prepare a few scripts for the Jade Emperor. He would try his best to be the man behind the Jade Emperor and become a little trump card of the Heavenly Courts.

Li Changshou chatted with Bai Ze for an hour. When the two fights ended, Li Changshou already had the intention to leave.

Before he left, he looked at Jiu Jiu again and could not help but raise his eyebrows.

When Jiu Jiu was drinking previously, she would mostly just blow at the mouth of the gourd. She was more or less unrestrained and lacked beauty.

Today, however, after the two of them fought, the Saintess of the Heaven Ascension Sect returned to the lotus platform. A fairy brought a jade wine bottle over from the side. She pinched the jade bottle with her slender fingers and lifted the thin veil to take a sip. She naturally had all kinds of charms.

Li Changshou was rendered speechless. There was no one else like him.

“Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Bai,” Li Changshou said. “I’ll return to my senses and continue cultivating.”

Bai Ze smiled and said, “Although doing these things for the Water God outside is not as comfortable as staying on the Black Pool Peak, it’s still interesting and not tiring. However, it’s not appropriate for me to appear during the Great White Ceremony. Water God, please don’t blame me for being rude.” “Mr. Bai, you’re joking,” Li Changshou replied. He turned his mind back to his main body and saw Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu’s figure. He could not help but shake his head and chuckle.

It was a little impressive.

Next, he would go to the Heavenly Courts and have a heart-to-heart talk with the Jade Emperor to maintain the relationship between the two of them…

Huh?

Tai Bai? Grand White Ceremony?

Questions appeared above Li Changshou’s head. He had some guesses and immediately chose the most direct solution.

Li Changshou sensed the paper effigy and focused again. “Mr. Bai?”

Bai Ze, who was about to turn around and leave the battleground, subconsciously straightened his body and hurriedly said, “I’m here.” “What about the Great White Ceremony?” Bai Ze could not help but blink and wonder, “Don’t you know? The Heavenly Courts sent an invitation to the Three Dao Sects yesterday to invite the immortals of Chan School and Jie School. Half a month later, they would go to the Heavenly Courts to attend the ceremony and celebrate the Water God’s promotion to a second-rank righteous god. Could it be that they are hiding it from you to give you… a little surprise?” Surprise? Who can explain? What is a surprise? Li Changshou could not help but support his forehead with one hand. The paper effigy let out a few soft moans and smiled bitterly. His attention immediately landed on the Heavenly Courts’ Water God Residence. He extended his immortal senses and realized that there was nothing unusual.

However, when he activated the Wind Speech Incantation, he could hear whispers everywhere.

“The Water God is still cooped up in the drum.”

“Hehehe, I was caught off guard by the sudden announcement yesterday.” “Speaking of which, it’s been a while since Lord Water God appeared. He should have gone to cultivate.” “That’s true. The Heavenly Courts’ Water God can last for decades with just a few words. The Water God is the second disciple of the Saint of Ren School. His cultivation cannot fall behind…”

In the study, Li Changshou’s paper effigy could not help but raise his hand to rub his glabella. He felt that his Dao heart was like a group of mosquitoes that were buzzing. Why did the Jade Emperor suddenly do that? It’s giving me a huge headache.

In order to prevent any trouble from happening when he was in seclusion, Li Changshou kept his attention elsewhere.

Whenever the paper effigies that he had planted in various places sensed the fluctuations of the intense battle, Li Changshou would be awakened, even at the crucial moment of Dao enlightenment. It was already very difficult for him to maintain such a passive warning while comprehending cultivation. Li Changshou did not let down his guard against the Heavenly Courts. When he was comprehending the Great Dao, he would take the initiative to sense the situation of the Heavenly Courts. This feeling was very superficial. It was just to observe if the Heavenly Courts were peaceful.

As a result, the Heavenly Courts had publicly issued a heroic invitation to hold the promotion ceremony for the Heavenly Courts’ Water God Li Changgeng. Li Changshou was the last person to know about that. Speaking of which, the news about the Heaven Ascension Hall is rather accurate. What should I do?

What else could he do? He could only brace himself and accept the matter.

Does the Jade Emperor have any other considerations? Li Changshou pondered carefully. Although he did not dare to say that the Jade Emperor was really that pure, the chances of the Jade Emperor using this matter to plot against him were slim. He could even imagine the situation when the Jade Emperor and General Dongmu discussed the matter. It was probably a sudden impulse and a flash of inspiration. He felt that this matter could increase the influence of the Heavenly Courts. However, in reality, countless variables had been added. No one knew what would happen next. He was really worrying… Li Changshou rubbed his eyebrows and pondered carefully for half a day. He chose the safest way to deal with it.

On the surface, he would pretend that he did not know anything about it. Later, he would let his main body secretly rush to the Heavenly Courts to prevent someone from using an excuse to cause trouble and accuse him of not respecting the Heavenly Courts. If someone was targeting them, where would they attack? Li Changshou continued to think. He sat in the study of the Water God Residence and fell into deep thought. He tried his best to prepare a few backup plans.

On the Three-Immortal Island, in the misty clouds, at the mountain spring, a few beautiful figures were drinking wine and playing music on the grass beside the pool. Their laughter echoed in the forest.

At that moment, the people playing there were naturally Qiong Xiao, Bi Xiao, Han Zhi, and the other two fairies who were cultivating on the Three-Immortal Island.

A white figure slowly walked over from the forest. A gentle voice sounded. “Don’t play anymore. There’s an errand that I need someone to run.”

III!”

Bi Xiao immediately jumped up and raised her hand. “Sister, let me go!”

Yun Xiao frowned slightly and pondered for a while. However, she said, “You are already a little anxious. How can I believe that you did not make a mistake? Can you trouble Han Zhi to make a trip?”

Han Zhi hurriedly stood up and bowed to Yun Xiao.

“If you have any orders, please tell me.” Yun Xiao took out a jade token and a jade ring from her sleeve and gently pushed them in front of Han Zhi. She instructed, “Go to Golden Ao Island and pay a visit to the Black Cloud Immortal. Hand this jade token and ring to him personally.”

“Yes.” Han Zhi agreed and carefully put away the two items. She immediately rode a cloud and rushed out of the island. Qiong Xiao was puzzled. “Sister, why did you send a letter to the Black Clouds Immortal?” “I just have something to entrust to the Black Clouds Immortal.” Yun Xiao sighed softly. “In half a month, it will be the ceremony for his promotion to Taibai. The Jade Emperor has already sent someone to send the invitation to our island. I naturally have to appear. If I give too many gifts, it will make it easier for others to gossip, so I borrowed the hands of the Black Clouds Immortal.” “Sister, why are you so worried?” Qiong Xiao pursed her lips slightly. “So what if we give more gifts? It’s only right.”

Yun Xiao chuckled and remained silent. She looked at the pool and was in a daze. It was unknown what she was thinking

At the same time, in the famous Grotto-heaven of the Middle Continent, Mount Emei, the Luofu Cave, which was protected by layers of array formations,

A blue light flew out of the cave. The layers of array formations opened and closed on their own, allowing the stream of light to reach the deepest part of the cave and transform into Zhao Gongming’s heroic figure.

At that moment, an expansion of the Luofu Cave had already been completed. It was much more spacious than when Li Changshou had come previously. After all, this place had turned from the “Single Immortal Cave” to the “Two Immortals Love Nest”.

A beautiful figure was sitting in front of the dressing table and slowly combing her black hair. Zhao Gongming walked over quickly and said happily, “Jin Ling, have you heard? Changgeng is going to be promoted to a second-rank righteous god. Are we going to congratulate him together?” “Just go.”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit said calmly, “Remember not to say anything. I haven’t thought about how to tell others about us.”

“What’s there to think about? Just walk together openly. Who dares to say anything?” Zhao Gongming walked forward and naturally took off his comb. He skillfully combed the long hair of the Goddess of Golden Spirit and said warmly, “However, you’re the one making the decisions. I’ll listen to your orders.” The Goddess of Golden Spirit could not help but lower her eyebrows and chuckle. She chided, “You only know how to say those words. You’ve really learned bad things from your Brother Changgeng! Oh right, remember to prepare more gifts. The Heavenly Courts had made such a huge fuss this time. It was considered a rare event in the Primordial World to spread the invitations everywhere in one day. We are the closest to Changgeng. If we don’t have enough gifts, we will be mocked.” “Don’t worry, don’t worry. It’s all arranged. It’s just that I feel that it’s not perfect without you.”

“I can go, but you have to remember not to appear too close.”

“Ah, what is so embarrassing about our Old Zhao?” “That’s not the case. I’m still a little embarrassed… If you move again, I’ll cut off your hands! Behave!”

In the gentle voice, the Luofu Cave was peaceful.

In the Netherworld, on the top floor of the Reincarnation Pagoda, Ksitigarbha was dressed in white. He stood in front of the window and looked at the distant Fengdu City.

Truth Listener lay at his feet and looked bored, but its gaze never left the corner of the staircase.

There, a slightly plump figure was sitting diagonally. There were two patches embroidered on his wide robe. His figure should not be considered tall. His face was hidden in the shadows, making it impossible to distinguish him. “Junior Brother Ksitigarbha, are you really not willing to write a letter to congratulate the Water God?”

“You can’t defeat the Water God.” Ksitigarbha did not look back. His voice was clear. The figure smiled and said, “Why should we fight him? We should take this opportunity to send someone to make up for our previous mistakes. It’s the right path to shake hands with this Water God and make peace.” “If you go over personally, I can write this congratulatory gift.” Ksitigarbha turned his head slightly and looked at the corner. “Aren’t you afraid that the spiritual mountain will forget you if you continue to hide? Eldest Senior Brother.”
