Chapter 444 - Journey to the Netherworld
Under the gazes of everyone, this new Saint accepted a tribulation.
This meant that the peace of the three worlds for tens of thousands of years would be broken again.
It also meant that new possibilities had appeared in the originally fixed hierarchy. From today onwards, the three worlds would enter a completely new stage. For a moment, some were happy, and others were sad.
“Alright! My disciple Tongtian has taken in a good disciple.”
Patriarch Hongjun smiled and shot out two golden lights for Lu Xiaoran.
“These two items are the Great Saint Light Wheel and the Heaven-Breaking Bead. They’re both Connate cardinal treasures. Consider them my reward on behalf of Tongtian. I hope you don’t disappoint Tongtian.”
“Thank you, Dao Ancestor.”
Lu Xiaoran’s puppet received the two Connate cardinal treasures from Patriarch Hongjun. Patriarch Hongjun smiled and nodded, and the phantom immediately disappeared from the world.
On the other side, the remaining Saints, including Primordial Heaven Supreme, also smiled.
Previously, the reason why they did not want Lu Xiaoran to take on the tribulation was because they were worried that Tongtian would be released from the Purple Cloud Palace.
Now, there was only Lu Xiaoran. So what if he became a Saint?
......
Which Saint here could defeat him?
Primordial Heaven Supreme also did not believe that Lu Xiaoran was capable of defeating the others.
Moreover, wouldn’t it be perfect if their people could take the opportunity to become Saints.
Grand Supreme Elder seemed to care the least about Lu Xiaoran. He only casually threw out a bottle of medicinal pills and immediately turned to leave.
“Congratulations, Disciple-Nephew Lu, for advancing to the Saint Realm.”
The item was not valuable or cheap. However, the other party still threw it to Lu Xiaoran to give Lu Xiaoran some face in public.
After all, Lu Xiaoran had just become a Saint. Even if they were to become mortal enemies in the next second, at this moment, it was still necessary for him to be polite.
Proper etiquette would never be outdated!
However, Primordial Heaven Supreme, Zhun Ti, and Jie Yin were really shameless.
Not only did he not give the other party anything symbolically, but they also mocked,
“Disciple-Nephew Lu, congratulations on receiving the sixth tribulation. We’re not unreasonable people. As long as you follow the rules well and don’t touch anything you shouldn’t, we’ll ensure your safety.
“Otherwise, your cultivation will be wasted.”
“Then there’s no need for you to worry.”
“I hope you won’t ask for trouble.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the three Saints also left with happy expressions.
The last Nuwa looked at Lu Xiaoran in confusion.
It had to be said that as a dignified Saint, Nuwa’s appearance could definitely be said to be the top-notch existence in the three worlds.
It was holy, but it did not lose the beauty a woman should have. It was perfect, and her entire face seemed to be made by the heavens.
Her figure was also extremely perfect. Just looking at her small figure made one unable to resist.
Only her lower body was that of a snake. Lu Xiaoran estimated that even if he did not want to become stronger and become as lecherous as ordinary men, he would not have any thoughts about her.
After all, there was no outlet on the other party’s body.
However, at this moment, she frowned, and her beautiful face actually revealed a pitiful expression. “Strange, logically speaking, I feel that you should be a human. However, why don’t I sense any human karma from you?”
Lu Xiaoran’s main body could not help but glance at her from below.
It would be strange if she could sense it.
After all, this guy was created by Wang Cai. Not to mention him, even Patriarch Hongjun would not be able to see through him.
A moment later, Nuwa continued, “Forget it. Perhaps you’ve already left the human path after becoming a Saint.”
She threw a golden light to Lu Xiaoran.
“This is a flying sword glass I refined. It has already reached the level of a top-notch Connate spirit treasure. It can even compete with some Connate cardinal treasures.”
Lu Xiaoran controlled the puppet and replied, “Thank you, Senior.”
Nuwa nodded and immediately continued, “Senior Brother Tongtian and Senior Brother Primordial Heaven Supreme have always been at odds. Now that you’ve become the new Saint of Jie School and the sect master of Jie School, Senior Brother Primordial Heaven Supreme will definitely not tolerate you. I hope you’ll do well.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Nuwa also turned around and left.
After the Saints left one after another, the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals surrounding Golden Ao Island looked at Lu Xiaoran eagerly and cupped their hands towards him.
“Congratulations to Saint Lu for becoming a Saint.”
Even if these people were not disciples of Jie School, they still had to give the other party face.
Lu Xiaoran controlled the puppet and replied, “In seven days, I’ll be giving a lecture on Golden Ao Island. At that time, you can all come and listen and contribute.”
“Thank you, Saint.”
Lu Xiaoran naturally did not need merit to cultivate. However, as a puppet, he still had to put on an act. After all, he had already accepted the tribulation. It was too unreasonable for him to not even give a lecture.
Moreover, as a Saint, if he was not interested in merit and promoting the Dao, he would easily arouse suspicion. No matter how stupid Hongjun was, it was impossible for him to not sense anything.
Of course he had to put on a full show.
After everyone thanked him, Lu Xiaoran’s puppet landed from the sky. The Zenith Heaven Immortals also retreated.
After everyone left, Golden Ao Island regained its calm.
Lu Xiaoran’s puppet sat cross-legged in the hall of Golden Ao Island and began to cultivate under the hot sun, using its body to block the situation inside Golden Ao Island.
Lu Xiaoran’s main body was secretly scheming on Golden Ao Island.
“Now that I’ve accepted the tribulation, the tribulation will probably begin in a few days. At that time, everyone will inevitably target Jie School.”
“Fortunately, I had already greatly increased the cultivation of the disciples of Jie School previously. Now, on Golden Ao Island, there are a total of more than 3,000 disciples from Jie School and the Nameless Sect. All of them are Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals and are not afraid of being targeted by others.
“However, the Six Paths of Reincarnation is a hidden danger. I should deal with this first.
“Looks like it’s time to go to the Netherworld.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Xiaoran instantly disappeared from his spot.
When he reappeared, he had already arrived at an endless darkness.
Lu Xiaoran’s main body was not a Saint. Without the enhancement of the Saint’s merit and a hidden identity, the creatures in the darkness were naturally unable to sense his identity. When they sensed a living being arrive, they immediately pounced over crazily.
However, before they could arrive beside Lu Xiaoran, an invincible power of laws directly crushed them into dust!
Not even a trace of his soul was left.
“Is this the Netherworld?”
Lu Xiaoran swept his gaze around. Having already reached the peak of the Primordial Chaos Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm, he could see everything within a hundred million kilometers with a single glance.
The ghosts, demons, yakshas, and demons all fell into Lu Xiaoran’s eyes.
In his previous life, Lu Xiaoran had scoffed at the idea of immortals and the Netherworld. Now that he had really seen it, he realized that many things in this world were true.
However, in the past, he was only a humble ant when facing these existences. Even an insignificant malicious ghost might be able to kill him.
However, now, even the entire Netherworld was no longer his match.
After sensing the location of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Lu Xiaoran instantly disappeared from his spot again.
In front of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, rows of souls were all standing in line. They would be reincarnated through the Six Paths of Reincarnation after drinking the Granny Meng Soup.
Their achievements in their previous lives had already been judged by the Ten Kings of Hell. If they had accumulated good karma in their previous life, then they would be reincarnated into a good family in their next life. If they committed all kinds of evil deeds in their previous life, their future life would be uncertain.
They would either become animals or poor people.
When Lu Xiaoran stepped over with his hands behind his back and looked at the living beings, he could not help but sigh.
In the past, he was also one of these trillions of ants. Now, he had already transcended the Six Paths of Reincarnation and had become an existence that could look down on them.
However, at this moment, his gaze suddenly stopped for a moment on a familiar figure on the Bridge of Helplessness.
At this moment, Lu Xiaoran’s eyes revealed a trace of shock.
“It’s her? I didn’t expect her to also come to this Bridge of Helplessness.”
“Although I’ve transmigrated for decades, she should only be 40 to 50 years old at most on Earth. How did she die so quickly?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xiaoran’s body also landed on the Bridge of Helplessness.
“Yang Zimo, long time no see.” The beautiful figure in the shackles imprisoned by the demons suddenly stopped when she heard this voice. She turned around to look at Lu Xiaoran and could not help but be stunned.
oran
“Are you… Xiaoran?”
Lu Xiaoran smiled and nodded. The two of them were high school classmates. Because of his cultivation, Lu Xiaoran still retained his original appearance. Therefore, even after decades, the other party could still easily recognize him.
Back then, Lu Xiaoran was also an influential figure in the school. His results were not good, but his appearance was enough to make him famous.
Unfortunately, the Internet was not developed enough in his era. Otherwise, he might have become an internet celebrity and not have to work in the coastal area after failing the college entrance examination.
“I didn’t expect you to also come to the Bridge of Helplessness. How did you die?”
“Um…”
The ghost soldier beside him immediately frowned and whipped Yang Zimo’s shoulder.
“This is the Bridge of Helplessness. No commotion.”
Their cultivation levels were too low and they could not see Lu Xiaoran at all. They thought that Yang Zimo was talking to himself.
Yang Zimo was shocked and shrank her head. Her face was filled with fear. Clearly, she had been beaten a lot.
However, after a long time, the pain she expected to feel did not appear.
She raised her head slightly. In the next moment, her entire soul body was stunned on the spot, and her eyes widened.
This was because at this moment, all the souls and ghost servants on the entire Bridge of Helplessness had fallen into a motionless state.
“Xiaoran, this… this is…?”
Lu Xiaoran smiled faintly.
“It’s nothing. It’s just a small trick. Speaking of which, why did you die so early? If I remember correctly, you’re at most 40 to 50 years old now, right?”
