Chapter 114: I am Here, Where Are You?

an was writing in his study. He stood before a large desk made of rosewood, writing with bold strokes.A person stands, with a straight waist and head slightly lowered. With a single stroke of a large...The river of time naturally has enchanting ripples.

A ripple of water, reflecting the images of too many people.

Lu Yan had flown away for a long time, leaving behind an eerie silence. In the ruins of the dark underground palace, Zhang Linchuan suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a piece of shattered internal organs.

He showed no expression on his face, merely taking out another handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

If he had decided to kill his way to enlightenment in the doomed sect, then he should not have let Lu Yan go just now.

But Lü Yan wasn't a simple Shen Lin cultivator. Born with a mystic eye, he was far more formidable than these Zhongyu small sect cultivators who flocked to the Mirror World Platform at the command of its master, eager for an easy advantage.

The state of Jing wanted to overshadow Qi and make a statement in this campaign against the Heretics. The best way, of course, was to personally wipe out the Cult of No Life.

A celestial prodigy from the Jingguo Rites Heavenly Mansion, he immediately clicked with the terrified Winged Demon. Together, they rallied a large number of minor sect cultivators to orchestrate a hunt on Yan Yun Mountain, employing a strategy akin to "giant rock crushing an egg" and "falcon preying on rabbit." They had eleven celestial prodigies among them!

After World War I, these small states were probably going to be eliminated.

Unless he had a sense of himself hidden within the demon's body, unless he intentionally chose to face this situation, unless he absolutely needed to set a trap for himself, how could he possibly give an idiot like the demon a chance

He painstakingly cultivated and acquired this white bone holy body, which is nearly perfect and flawless.

That's because it is "almost".

This body has only attained four divine powers, and thus cannot become a Heavenly Mansion.

It's not that the White Bone Holy Body doesn't have such potential.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But at that time, the White Bone Demon God was still feared by the will of the present world. The mortal body he created for himself to descend into this world, and the raft of suffering sea, were not made perfect by Heaven's design!

This white bone holy body, based on Wang Changji's physical body and refined with the battle aura of the battlefield, still has hidden dangers.

This hidden danger is extremely subtle. It won't have any impact in normal times, but it will affect whether heaven favors him at the crucial moment when he reaches his peak!

Throughout eternity, ascending to the pinnacle has been an arduous endeavor. Every addition on the journey, feels like a weight of ten thousand pounds!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Who can withstand the rejection of heaven and reach the summit

In other words, this body is actually hopeless in terms of the Dao.

Initially, the White Bone Deity could disregard this. His descent into a sacred vessel was all it took to progress. He couldn't possibly...

Without the vision and means that surpass all limits, it is impossible to easily eliminate this hidden danger.

He did not even realize this potential danger until after he achieved the status of a True God; before that, he hadn't even been aware of it!

He is willing to take risks and replace Lei Zhaoqian with himself. He wants to build a large ship of the country, also wanting to use the foundation of a powerful country to find a way for himself to survive peacefully.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Even, this is the most important reason.

Lei Zhanyuan, due to his unique family background, had enormous development potential in the State of Qi. He could indeed leverage his identity as Lei Zhanyuan to climb to a high position.

But even with Lei Zhanqian's excellent physique, it couldn't compare to his own white bone holy body.

A life lived in another's stead can never surpass one's own. If the original body does not advance in cultivation, then the borrowed vessel can only remain at the same level of cultivation.

Therefore, finding a way to safely resolve the issue of Saint Body was his greatest desire. Because this concerned whether he could ultimately achieve enlightenment.

Of course, Lei Zhanyan's identity was too good. Even if that body could only walk to the level of a real person, he had confidence in vying for the position of a Nine-Soldier Commander with it.

That kind of location, it is more realistic than the Wusheng Religion which has already developed to hundreds of thousands of followers. It can utilize resources from a powerful nation and seek enlightenment independently.

Everything he did in Luoshuang County had a clear pattern, all leading to the final goal. Every step was solid, except for that day when he suddenly saw a great opportunity and made a reckless move...

He truly hadn't expected that it would all be ruined by an Inner Palace realm Qing Pai catcher.

After confirming that Lei Zhanyan's fate could no longer be continued, he immediately switched to a damage control plan. Intentionally revealing his identity and causing Jiang Wang's emotional fluctuations was just to plant a seed of malice...

The wisdom of that fat man surprised him a little.

The ferocity of the murderer surprised him.

The amount of commotion Jiang Wang could create was far beyond his imagination.

He didn't expect Jiang Wang to have such determination, such hatred, and be able to mobilize such resources.

One can't possibly calculate all the complexities of the world, especially when it comes to human hearts.

Since he decided to stake his claim in the state of Qi, he could accept whatever consequences came from it, both good and bad.

Shouyuan was beheaded, his cultivation was reduced, and the Wusheng Sect, which he had single-handedly founded and built up, collapsed overnight.

As the teachings of the "Non-Birth School" developed, gaining millions and even billions of followers, its immeasurable faith washed over him, seeking to mend what he perceived as flaws in divine destiny with human will. Ultimately, this was how he sought to achieve enlightenment, one path among many he had devised for himself.

The Legend of the Lone Sword

>

Now this road is also blocked.

>

At least one point he did not deceive Lu Yan.

He had no other choice.

>

And this method, of course, wasn't what he and Lu Yan had said, to kill millions. Perhaps that was truly a path, with a slight possibility... But even if it led to the derivation of Dao, it would be a dead end.

He just wants to get stronger, he's not looking for death.

His last resort was a nine tribulation technique he had long researched but had been putting aside.

Rather than waiting for the "malice" of worldly desires to reach its peak and then officially fall, it's better to proactively welcome it and preemptively trigger "the calamity". Being prepared in advance could potentially turn a dangerous situation into a fortunate one. This was the fundamental idea behind the creation of this method.

However, "heavenly will has flaws," and great disasters cannot be dispelled.

The Nine Tribulations are the attrition against Heaven's "malice," consecutively nine times confronting Heavenly Will and facing calamities. However, each tribulation is a near-death experience.

Who can be sure that they have gone through nine near-death experiences and still found that glimmer of hope

So although he had already thought of this approach, he kept it on hold and was not prepared to use it. A person can only live once, and when there is a choice, of course, one should choose the more stable way.

...Until now.

The Wu Sheng teachings were declared to be destroyed, his life's work was ruined in an instant, and his path to enlightenment was severed.

Replacing Lei Zhanyin's incident would certainly make the top powers of the world more scrutinize their own geniuses. In other words, wanting to recreate Lei Zhanyin's trajectory is already extremely difficult.

Unless he intends to vanish forever, retreating into the depths and never again emerging from his hiding place, observing Jiang Wang's rise step by step from the shadows...

How could he possibly be willing to stop

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Since I was already in such a desperate situation, I might as well directly unleash the Nine Tribulations!

The Nine Tribulations Method is a gamble of nine times, risking life and death each time.

If you fail, forget everything.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Once successful, the hidden danger of the Holy Body will be gone forever, and the path of cultivation will be smooth!

Today marks the first tribulation.

Heaven's will is subtle and profound, he cannot interfere too much, otherwise the calamity wouldn't truly be a "calamity".

It's not about having a group of people surround and attack you, even if it's creating a predicament for yourself. There needs to be a truly unpredictable danger, facing a life-or-death crisis.

When he gave the Winged Demons a chance, he didn't even know what kind of lineup the Heavenly Pride of Jing Guo would bring. Would it be like that shameless fat man, who directly brought a real person with him

Even facing a real person, he might not necessarily have a chance to escape. If the other party could even summon a true immortal, and had to bring along a celestial master from the Daoist sect just to hunt down a heretical leader who was only at the level of a divine manifestation for now, then his fate was sealed.

He only treated it as a death trap!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

There was a fierce battle in the dark palace. Those small sect gods were lacking in skill, except for two particularly ruthless ones, most of them were insignificant. As for the proud son of Jing Guo, he truly lived up to his title. At the crucial moment of life and death, they caused him great harm.

But it wasn't until Lü Yan suddenly appeared that he realized this was the full picture of the first tribulation!

Lu Yan was also part of this killing spree.

Once there was an opportunity, Lu Yan would definitely not mind killing him.

Just as he was familiar with Lu Yan, over the past few years, Lu Yan must have never relaxed his observation of him.

Once he held up the White Bone Path single-handedly, these years with the expansion of the Wúshēng teachings, he has fought countless battles east and west.

Lu Yan, who was familiar with Zhang Linchuan, Bai Gu Secret Art, Wu Sheng Xuan Art, and You Lei Forbidden Law, had secretly prepared for many years. Even now that he was seriously injured, he was not so easy to deal with.

So he went on and on about achieving immortality through killing, boasting about slaying millions, all just to send out the secret art and let Lu Yan leave.

>

Now this piece of bloody organ tissue was ejected, and he felt a lightness as if he were being reborn.

Although he had reached such a level of cultivation, it was extremely difficult to heal the injuries to his physical body.

But the pain of this physical body can be completely dissipated by the joy of the soul.

The first tribulation has already passed!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Therefore, he had a deeper understanding of "Heavenly Calamity," and subsequently knew how to trigger it and how to respond to it.

Moreover, the reason he chose to make such a grand and violent scene killing on Mount Yan Yun, choosing to make his first tribulation so spectacular, was indeed to send a signal to Jiang Wang—

Since you say you won't share the same sun and moon with me, I've come here now. Where are you

He was looking forward to Jiang Wang coming to find him, so he could fill in one of the nine tribulations that was missing.

Deep down, he felt that it was a very important step.

He fully believed that it would be an extremely dangerous battle, and he also fully believed that he would achieve the final victory.

Chen Pu said, "My life has been through hundreds of tribulations and deaths, but I haven't looked back." He is looking forward to where he will be after nine tribulations.

Folded the bloodstained handkerchief carefully, she walked out of the underground palace with composure. She threw those lifeless chunks of flesh behind her.

The overly dazzling sunlight made him feel a little uncomfortable, but he instead stood his ground and looked straight up at the sun hanging in the sky.

Under the blazing sun, how could it not shine on me

After looking like this for a while, a smile played on the corner of his mouth.

He has already decided on his next destination.

The battle here in the underground palace will soon spread, and Dan Guo and Song Guo near Yan Yunshan will surely be on high alert...

He decided to go to Wei State for a while.

Wu Qin, the great general of Wei, was a renowned military commander throughout the land. He possessed the strength, the cunning, and the unwavering resolve to bring about his enemies' demise.

Such a heroic figure is very suitable to host his second life-or-death tribulation.

A smile, a chuckle, a laugh.

A smile blooms like a flower, reflected in the copper mirror.

This smile wasn't quite genuine. The woman reflected in the mirror adjusted her makeup carefully, tweaking it until a semblance of naturalness emerged.

Her smile captivated the entire country.

"Where did Jiang Wang go" she asked without turning around.

The maids behind her were just gazing intently at the mirror, completely entranced. When they heard her voice, they came to their senses: “We only just passed Starmoon Meadow.”

"So soon It seems he's really determined this time."

>

The first beauty of the Great Chu, Ye Lan'er, stood up from the dressing mirror and turned around.

That magnificent gown suddenly lost its luster.

So called "shameful of a hundred flowers," so called "bright moon covering its face."

He, the figure in the painting, stepped into the human world.

Without any other action, every aspect of the eyes and eyebrows carries a landscape.

"I'll go see him again."

As for the person's hasty retreat in "My Building" before, she was naturally dissatisfied. Today's Jiang Wang has greater strength, a higher status, and greater influence... making things more challenging.

>

The maidservant silently drew back the door, moving with a deference that spoke volumes.

Ye Lan'er then went outside.

But as soon as I stepped out the door, I stopped.

Here is the translation of the content inside the tags:

Because there was a person standing outside the door.

A woman.

Shrouded in a veil of mist, yet revealing eyes that captivate and enthrall.

>

A touch of red lipstick, more vibrant and translucent than ever before, a captivating allure.

Just the gaze of their two beautiful eyes gave the feeling that jade and white, amber and pearls, were shining together, a breathtaking beauty.

“Don't disturb him right now.” the woman standing outside the door said.

Please note: The original text was empty. I've left the HTML tag as it was.

Her voice was extremely languid, like a peony waking from spring sleep.

Rather than a warning, it felt more like an apology.

Standing in the doorway, Ye Lan still wore a near-perfect smile and spoke in a near-perfect voice: "Sister, how can you say that I went to help him, not to disturb him."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Every syllable she uttered, every expression on her face, had been honed through countless rehearsals, thus achieving near perfection.

In Chu, a land renowned for its beauty, she was said to be the most beautiful of all.

"Just listen to me, sister," The woman outside the door walked in. She glanced around and, when the maidservant silently withdrew, she shut the door behind her.

"He is very dangerous now..."

Besides death and life, there is nothing important. Those who cherish their lives always have to fight for survival.

Jiang Wang's open letter sparked a worldwide purge of the Wusheng Sect. The biggest impact this had was making everyone in the world aware of the influence of this peerless genius.

The younger generation has unparalleled influence!

From the moment he emerged victorious from the Yellow River gathering, he became the object of everyone's attention.

After the Star Moon Origin War, Qi Tianjiao triumphed over other celestial prodigies. In the Qi Xia War, he subdued the calamity water with his presence and became a marquis in a single battle.

His reputation has reached a certain limit—

What honor could be greater than that of a marquis who has achieved military glory at the age of twenty-one and been granted a feudal estate

What story could be more moving than that of a promising young man who risked his life to save countless people from disaster

...until this public letter was released.

The whole world responded, and the entire present world set off a wave to eradicate cults.

More than just the teachings of non-existence

In just a few days, countless cults have been destroyed all over the world!

People scrutinized every suspicious preacher with caution. Those unorthodox and sinister cults, each tucked their tails between their legs and kept a low profile. During this time, the difficulty of preaching was akin to being in Qionglu Mountain—the ancestral home of worldly deities. Competing with worldly deities for faith, wouldn't one be crushed along with those small guardian spirits

Most people cannot see the geopolitical game behind this, nor can they see the great momentum that Jiang Wang is leveraging, nor can they see the backing of the Sanxing Palace.

They only saw that Marquis Wu'an, Jiang Wang, published an open letter, which stood like a banner in the sky. All the countries in the world responded one after another. After that, wherever sunlight reached, there was no place for the teachings of nothingness to stand!

What an awe-inspiring prestige! What a profound influence!

And the powerful blow he dealt against cults saved countless people from peril, mending countless shattered lives.

People shower him with praise and accolades. Some have even shouted the slogan "The number one talent in the world!" and not even bothering to preface it with any such embellishments as "inner palace," "outer hall," or "divine presence."

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Of course Jiang Wang wouldn't accept it.

He knew he didn't have that kind of skill or influence, but by chance, he was pushed to the forefront.

But this time, he flew from Linzi to Yanshan Mountain. Everything he faced was indeed different from the past.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate other text!

The whole world is full of kindness!

He flew all the way, unimpeded.

Even if there are some checkpoints, as long as you report your name and undergo a brief verification, you will be allowed to pass immediately.

There were also constantly people he knew and didn't know who came to him, summarizing all the information about the Wusheng Jiao and depicting Zhang Linchuan's actions. Encouraging, supporting, wanting to follow.

All of a sudden, friends are everywhere!

"Seeing you today, Marquis Wu'an, what a fortunate occasion! Please come this way, I shall clear a path for you!"

“Open the gate quickly for Marquis Wu'an!”

"See Marquis Wuan! I have here a scripture from the Wu Sheng Jiao, hoping it will be of help to you in combating this cult..."

"Just keep walking forward, I've sent a message ahead, so there won't be anyone who doesn't know better."

“You are the person I admire most in my life. I specially picked the head of a formidable demon to offer you. Please step on this skull, and your journey will be smooth and successful. You will surely slay that demon from the Unborn Sect!”

He wasn't engaged in a life-or-death struggle, but rather like inspecting the vast and beautiful landscapes of the world. Along his path were flowers and applause.

But the more so, the more he remained silent.

Flew westward with haste, sword ever in hand. Never had I let it go.

When the ruler and ministers of Zhuang Nation falsely accused him of consorting with demons, the Mirror World Stage publicly issued a wanted notice, and at a time when public condemnation swept across the land — he told himself, "I must recognize 'myself'."

Fortunate to ride the torrent, standing in the tide of time, when the world regards him as a god, he must also tell himself - I must recognize "myself"!
