Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 499 A Thousand Bones and Myriad Forms
Autumn passes and winter comes.

Like a fleeting moment.

Another season has passed in the blink of an eye.

The majestic ten-tiered pagoda was covered in white frost.

Click.

The snow was trampled and sank.

The young man in black robes stopped and looked up at the majestic gate of the mansion, his expression as cold as frost.

Boom!

He flicked his finger, and a snowflake shot out, hitting the stone beast in front of the gate and smashing half of its head!
Gravel splashes!

"who is it!"

The gates of the mansion opened, and an angry shout rang out.

A servant, his face full of anger, looked outside.

After seeing the black-robed youth clearly...

The anger on his face vanished instantly!
"So it's Lord Su."

The servant, pale-faced, forced a smile and asked, "What brings you here, sir?"

Jiang Jian said softly, "Go tell Bai Chen that I'm waiting for him to come to the Royal Court Arena."

The words fell.

Jiang Jian lightly flicked the sleeve of his black robe, his figure transforming into black light and quietly dissipating.

The servant's expression grew even more unpleasant.

A few seconds later.

The servant turned back into the mansion and reported the matter truthfully.

"It's just too much!"

The silver-haired man frowned, slammed his hand on the table, and sawdust flew everywhere!

aside.

A black-haired man sat there, his gaze equally grave, and said, "He's been eyeing you for three months now."

Bai Chen withdrew his hand, his face grim: "The Zhang Xuan case has been solved, but the Grand Tutor has not questioned me. It seems he left me to this man as a stepping stone for him!"

"What's most infuriating is that the Grand Tutor actually left the Purple Mansion Dojo to this scoundrel for cultivation!"

Bai Chen let out a low growl, his eyes already bloodshot beneath his full head of silver hair!

Everyone in the Grand Tutor's mansion knew this.

The Purple Mansion Dojo in the Mirror World is the residence of the Mirror Master!

in other words.

The True Lord actually wanted Jiang Jian to stay by his side and cultivate!

Such favoritism and preferential treatment are simply unheard of!

To know.

The places where a True Monarch of the Spirit Platform Realm resides are at least the most extreme cultivation grounds!
Since three months.

Jiang Jian's spiritual cultivation level skyrocketed at an incredible and terrifying speed!
His cultivation of innate magical arts and supernatural powers.

It also boasts an unimaginable and terrifying improvement!
the most important is.

If any problems arise during the practice.

You can consult the Mirror Master anytime, anywhere!
This is something that most people wouldn't dare to imagine in their entire lives!
Generally speaking.

Even blood relatives cannot teach someone at the Spirit Platform Realm how to cultivate.

Even a single insightful comment is a tremendous stroke of luck.

What Bai Chen found unacceptable was...

Jiang Jian, having somehow bewitched the Grand Tutor, stayed at the Grand Tutor's Purple Mansion Dojo for a full three months!
Those with discerning eyes in the Grand Tutor's mansion have already seen it.

This newly elected voter has a very high chance of winning a spot in the Grand Tutor's Mansion!
In this process.

White dust is the biggest stumbling block!
"Since the Grand Tutor is so biased, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Bai Chen suddenly turned his head, his eyes revealing madness.

aside.

The black-haired man seemed to realize something and exclaimed in surprise, "What are you going to do? Are you going to take that road?"

Bai Chen gritted his teeth and nodded: "I can't think of a way to beat him except by forcibly ascending the divine platform."

Not long ago.

Jiang Jian stood in front of the mansion gate.

The ripples of profound energy it emitted were so powerful that they terrified Bai Chen.

Bai Chen knew this very well.

Jiang Jian stayed at the Purple Mansion Dojo and cultivated under the Grand Tutor for three months.

Right now, I'm definitely no match for him!

To secure the last remaining Heavenly Position spot.

There's only one way left.

It involves using special drugs to forcibly break through the Divine Platform!
just.

Thus.

Your own path of cultivation will be completely severed, and you will be unable to advance even a little bit!
not to mention.

Such an altar is a fake.

Compared to a real altar.

Their own combat strength is far inferior.

but.

Even when facing a Divine Palace Realm expert, they can still crush them!
"You're drinking poison to quench your thirst!"

The black-haired man advised, "Think about it again. What if there's another way?"

Bai Chen said coldly, "Don't forget, I killed Zhang Xuan!"

"The Grand Tutor can convict me at any time!"

"I can't think of any other way but to defeat Su head-on!"

next to.

The black-haired man's eyes darted around as he said, "Before Su appeared, the Grand Tutor had already suspected you. However, at that time, only you were qualified to fill the Heavenly Position in the Grand Tutor's mansion, so the Grand Tutor did not investigate further."

"If he were to die quietly and without a sound."

"Even if the Grand Tutor doesn't like you, he'll hold his nose and keep you around, letting you represent the Grand Tutor's Mansion in the struggle for the throne!"

Hear this.

Bai Chen's expression froze: "You mean, the same old trick?"

The black-haired man nodded: "A useful method should be used more often."

Bai Chen pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This method simply won't work! This is the capital of the Demon Kingdom, not a place like the desolate Xisha Road!"

The black-haired man chuckled sinisterly, "Then we'll find a way to get him to leave the Demon Kingdom temporarily, won't that solve the problem?"

The words fell.

He turned on the holographic screen and brought up a document.

"The Kingdom of No Form will soon hold a Star Lord Rules Propaganda Conference in the depths of the Boundary Sea."

“Each current star lord nation and current star lord sect must send someone to participate.”

"The person chosen by the Demon Kingdom is Director Liu Wang of the Internal Affairs Department."

“Each government office must send one person to accompany Director Liu Wang.”

The black-haired man said confidently, "My father happens to have some connections with Director Liu Wang."

"At that time, we can just have Director Liu Wang casually mention that he wants Su from the Grand Tutor's Mansion, and we can take him out of the Demon Kingdom."

Hear this.

Bai Chen, as if grasping at a lifeline, exclaimed with delight, "Then I'll contact the Jade Pool Demon Lord immediately!"

“After the last incident in Xisha, the Jade Pool Demon Lord asked me about Su.”

"It seems that this Demon Lord has already taken a grudge against Su."

"This time, we should be able to get the Demon Lord to take action without paying too high a price."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

just.

Bai Chen did not notice.

The black-haired man had a smile on his face.

But his gaze was icy cold.

The number of Heavenly Positions in the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

He wants it too.

As the Grand Tutor's residence, it was the fourth in line.

The black-haired man originally had no chance.

But what if Bai Chen and Su both fall from power?

The black-haired man naturally got a spot.

but.

The two hid here, each with their own plans, believing themselves to be completely in the dark.

But no one noticed.

On the edge of the eaves of the pavilion, a bird is preening its feathers.

Even with the star array separating them.

Their conversation was still clearly audible.

next moment.

The bird took flight and flew deeper into the Grand Tutor's mansion.

Mirror world.

In front of the Crystal Palace.

The bird transformed into a black-robed youth and landed.

"Lord Su."

The servant bowed his head in greeting.

Jiang Jian waved his hand gently, indicating that he did not need to stand on ceremony.

He walked through the crystal pavilions with practiced ease, arriving at the foot of a grotto-heaven entrance.

Inside the gate was the Purple Mansion Dojo.

The Mirror Master, the true abode.

"Purple Mansion, please open the door."

Jiang lowered his gaze and spoke respectfully.

The portal to the grotto has quietly opened.

Jiang stepped inside.

Suddenly, an extremely rich spiritual energy surged forth.

Two houses stand in front.

One room is the residence of the Mirror Master.

The other room was the dwelling that Jiang Jian built alone three months ago.

Since this time.

Jiang Jian stayed here and followed the Mirror Master to cultivate.

Besides improving cultivation level.

Jiang Jian learned so much.

I also gained a different understanding of this lofty and unapproachable True Lord than before.

In the eyes of outsiders.

The Lingtai Realm should be a place of high esteem, revered by all.

Every true ruler should remain calm and composed in the face of adversity, and be able to strategize effectively.

but.

We've spent these three months together.

Jiang Jian realized this deeply.

The True Lord is also a living being.

Their temperaments and personalities are all different.

Besides being at a higher level of life.

There is no significant difference between them and ordinary living beings.

"white."

The man in the gray robe walked out of the house and waved to Jiang Jian, "Come see my haul for today."

Jiang Jian stopped his thoughts, stepped forward to take a look, and smiled: "The fish in the Boundary Sea are going to be caught by the Grand Tutor."

There were more than ten goldfish in the bamboo basket.

Each goldfish was lively and jumping around, radiating a dazzling golden light.

"You have one hour to remove the fish bones from them."

The Grand Tutor chuckled, "Tonight's menu: Spirit Pearl Braised Fish Soup."

Jiang replied, "Yes."

He circulated his inner energy and lifted the bamboo basket with some difficulty.

suddenly.

A goldfish flicked its tail, carrying a fierce demonic aura, and stabbed directly at Jiang Jian's eyes!

This is the aura of a cultivator at the Divine Palace Realm!

Each goldfish possesses the cultivation level of the Divine Palace Realm!
"As before, only one can survive."

Jiang Jian spoke softly, his fingers lightly brushing across the surface, easily neutralizing the demonic attack.

He raised the sleeve of his dark robe, rummaged through the bamboo basket for a moment, randomly grabbed one, and threw it into the vortex at the edge of the Purple Mansion.

That vortex connects to the sea of ​​Saturn.

The Boundary Sea is the region of Saturn's surface covered by the shadow of its rings.

Because Saturn's rings are simply too enormous.

The shadow it casts.

On Saturn's surface, a large dark region was formed.

Over time.

As the tides of fortune ebb and flow, this dark realm, covered by unfathomable seawater, forms Saturn's unique Black Sea landscape.

The hundred realms of Saturn are called the "boundary seas".

In the Boundary Sea, there exist many strange creatures.

This goldfish is one of them.

They are not spirits or monsters, but they have similarities to demons.

just.

They cannot transform into human form, their thinking is chaotic and low, and they are almost entirely driven by the instinct to absorb and exhale spiritual energy.

in other words.

Goldfish in the outer sea are another form of planetary debris.

For ordinary people.

The border sea is extremely dangerous.

Although the creatures within are all treasures.

but.

Most people wouldn't dare to enter it easily.

Only professional fishing fleets will enter the border waters.

If you're lucky, you can catch a goldfish at the Spring-Gathering Realm and immediately make a fortune!
As for the goldfish in the Divine Palace Realm, they only exist in the depths of the Boundary Sea.

With the blessing of seawater, its combat power is multiplied, making it comparable to an ordinary shrine.

A single misstep could wipe out an entire fleet.

Few people dare to hunt this creature.

but.

At the Purple Mansion Dojo in the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

This strange vortex leads directly to the deepest part of the Boundary Sea!

The Mirror Master Zhenjun, in particular, enjoys fishing.

If this bamboo basket full of goldfish were auctioned off, it could fetch an unimaginable price!

As for releasing one animal.

This was the method taught to Jiang Jian by the True Lord of the Mirror.

Jiang Jian remembered it very clearly.

At first.

The True Lord stood in front of the house and calmly said, "Those with vested interests must be eliminated without exception."

"If the impact is minor, then we should leave a glimmer of hope."

"Such behavior is in accordance with the rules of Starry Sky."

"One's own fortune will benefit from this."

Fortune and destiny are elusive and intangible.

Even a True Monarch at the Spirit Platform Realm can only sense it slightly, and cannot truly grasp it.

However, there are always certain behaviors that can clearly lead to an increase or decrease in one's fortune.

The Mirror Master once told Jiang Jian this.

When he was in the Divine Platform Realm, he represented his sect in the struggle for the Saturn Celestial Position.

At that time.

As an unparalleled genius, the Grand Tutor, along with many other geniuses and prodigies from the Hundred Realms of Saturn, used the fortune of Saturn as a catalyst to usher in an incredible battle!
He had personally experienced it.

After overwhelming all the prodigies, he soared to the heavens.

Even the fortunes of this massive planet will shift in its favor!

It is for this reason.

Only the Grand Tutor can glimpse the Spiritual Platform and attain the position of True Lord!
The struggle for the position of the Star Lord.

Saturn's Hundred Realms: A Glimpse into the Eyes of Billions of Living Beings!
As the grandest event on the entire planet, it will surely gather a tremendous amount of fortune!
This is an unprecedented opportunity!

Bai Chen knew this, which is why he didn't hesitate to take ruthless measures to eliminate Zhang Xuan in order to secure a spot in the Grand Tutor's Mansion!
"white."

The True Lord's voice interrupted Jiang Jian's memories.

While processing the fish, Jiang Jian replied, "Grand Tutor."

The True Lord said in a low voice, "Zhang Xuan is my favorite voter."

"You look a lot like him."

“He usually focuses on his spiritual practice and is not disturbed by external things.”

“I once considered taking him as my disciple.”

"It's just a pity."

"He was already dead before I made up my mind."

aside.

Jiang stopped what she was doing and listened quietly.

The True Lord paused for a moment, then continued, "If you can return safely during the great struggle for the Star Lord's position, you can become my disciple, how about that?"

Jiang put down the goldfish in her hand, stood up carefully, and replied in a low voice, "Yes."

The struggle for the position of Star Lord is not a friendly competition or contest.

It's a life-or-death struggle!
Every time the celestial order changes hands, countless geniuses perish!
even.

Even beings in the Divine Platform Realm could perish within it!

Saturn is the ruler of the planets, and there are only eight of them, and there can only be eight.

This is Saturn's core, the maximum it can sustain.

If a Spirit Platform Realm cultivator on Saturn were to engage in a deadly battle over this, the entire planet would be destroyed.

therefore.

The highest cultivation level required to participate in the Great Competition is limited to the Divine Platform Realm.

This rule was accepted by everyone.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Divine Platform Realm is valued.

To advance further, a True Monarch of the Spirit Platform Realm must rely on planetary core resources.

They use their own established kingdoms and sects to compete for the position of Star Lord.

It is the most important step in obtaining planetary core resources.

For ordinary living beings.

The struggle for the position of the Star Lord is fierce.

It's not just a matter of chance.

There are countless dangers!

One wrong move and you could be killed by someone else!

If you're less skilled than others, you're almost guaranteed to die!
A large part of Saturn's overall strength was consumed in the great struggle for the position of the planetary ruler!
"Your Soul-Stealing Technique, though of low level, has been mastered to perfection."

"With slight adjustments, its power will be even greater."

After a meal.

As usual, the Mirror Master guided Jiang Jian's innate magical abilities, filling in the gaps and gradually refining them.

This is also due to the Grand Tutor's personality.

Under his careful instruction.

Jiang Jian's understanding of innate magic and his application of supernatural powers have improved in all aspects.

after all.

The Mirror Master is at the second level of life.

In his view, Jiang Jianshi's methods had many loopholes and shortcomings.

He spared no effort in patiently explaining the loopholes to Jiang Jian one by one and changing the way he used Xuan Qi.

This is something that other Spirit Platform Realm cultivators could not do.

essentially.

The second level of life and the basic level of life are completely different species.

Any True Monarch at the Spirit Platform Realm has a natural sense of superiority over beings at the basic level of life.

but.

Jiang Jian felt nothing of this from the Mirror Master True Lord.

In Jiang Jian's view.

This true lord.

On the contrary, he has similarities with Shen Xi, Xu Qingxian and others.

A once unparalleled genius.

Even after achieving mastery in cultivation, one should not change one's original aspirations.

This situation is extremely rare.

At least from Jiang Jian's perspective.

This True Lord did not consider himself a higher being at the second level of life.

Although he and Jiang Jian did not have the title of master and disciple.

but.

The Mirror Master has done everything a master can.

We need to do even better.

"Grand Tutor, I'm going back to continue my cultivation."

After checking and filling in the gaps, Jiang Jian stood up, his profound energy almost completely depleted, and bowed to the True Lord.

"Go then."

The True Lord nodded.

Jiang Jian returned to the house.

The True Lord turned around and walked alone to the edge of the whirlpool in the Boundary Sea, looking somewhat dejected.

Zhang Xuan was the most outstanding voter in the Grand Tutor's mansion.

After entering the Grand Tutor's Mansion, he diligently cultivated himself and worked hard to improve himself, never slacking off in the slightest.

When the Mirror Master Zhenjun used the Mirror of Heaven to perceive that Qingling Creek was about to be promoted to a resource of destiny, he realized that Qingling Creek was about to be promoted to a resource of destiny.

This led to Zhang Xuan being sent to the desolate Xisha Road to serve as its governor.

but.

Even a True Monarch of the Spirit Platform Realm.

I didn't expect it either.

Zhang Xuan never returned after that trip.

Because of this.

Even the Mirror Master felt remorse.

Zhang Xuan always treated him as a master, showing him the utmost respect.

Several decades.

It's inevitable that the Mirror Master would develop feelings for it.

after all.

The second level of life, not being a deity, also possesses the seven emotions and six desires.

His only regret was not making Zhang Xuan his disciple.

On Saturn, the influence of the sectarian system is extremely large.

The Mirror Master True Lord was originally from a sect.

Although he had already joined a Star Lord-level nation, he was not using the sect's master-disciple system.

But deep down, he still identified with the master-apprentice system.

"Come."

The True Lord called out.

A dark figure stepped forward: "Grand Tutor."

"Even with Bai Chen's connections, he can't persuade Director Liu Wang."

The Grand Tutor stretched out his hand, stirring the whirlpool of the Boundary Sea, and said in a calm tone, "Go and help them. Add Su's name to the list of those going to Wuxiang Kingdom."

The shadowy figure replied, "Yes."

As the shadow disappeared.

The Grand Tutor took his hand back, holding a five-colored fish, and muttered to himself.

"Follow me in my spiritual practice for three months."

"A weak altar is the most suitable opponent."

The five-colored fish struggled frantically, its body radiating light, but it could never escape the True Lord's palm.

The True Lord understood perfectly.

My current approach.

Although there is a high possibility that this could put Jiang Jian in mortal danger, or even lead to his violent death.

but.

As the True Lord has come this far, he has come to understand this even more.

Only those who have been tempered by life and death can emerge as true champions!

Jiang Jian is about to face a crisis.

This was to prevent him from facing even greater danger during the great struggle for the position of Star Lord!
after all.

The struggle for the position of the Star Lord is fierce.

No matter life or death!

Even a True Lord cannot interfere!
If Jiang Jian were to die this time, he would truly be killed by the Jade Pool Demon Lord.

Even the Mirror Master will not regret it.

because.

In his philosophy.

This is the path that every strong person must take.

It is also the path he himself once walked!

Within the Divine Palace Realm, it is impossible to fight beyond one's level.

Therefore, it will be very difficult for this being to see the spiritual platform in the future!
Only time and time again can they create the impossible miracle.

Only then will there be an opportunity to achieve a leap in one's life level!
