Chapter 299 Above Jade Mountain
Jade Mountain Immortal Capital.

Layers of black city walls surround white high walls, behind which, shimmering buildings reflect metal and electric light, embedded like skeletal bones on a white-gold jade mountain range.

The mountain range shimmered with a luster like mutton fat, within which crystalline characters floated and disappeared. An invisible, eerie ripple, shimmering with ethereal beauty, resembled a waterfall flowing against the current, surging towards the mountain peak.

The summit of Yushan Mountain presents an inverted triangle shape.

That's a mountaintop that was completely flattened and then hung upside down.

At this moment, a dilapidated temple sits atop that peak.

The temple was drafty and missing its door plaque; only the dragon pillar supporting the roof remained intact. The four eaves of the temple were carved with the four mythical beasts: the Vermilion Bird, the Black Tortoise, the White Tiger, and the Azure Dragon, while the crossbeam was a golden dragon skeleton.

squeak - squeak -

In this dilapidated temple, which resembles a pavilion, a gaunt old man lies on a rocking chair, puffing away on a cigarette.

In his hand, he was inhaling a genetically modified opium made of colorful scales.

However, the old man's body was almost transparent.

With each inhalation of his gene opium, a swirling cloud of smoke surged from his throat into his body, much like a stream of multicolored ink dissolving in white water.

Countless dense images surged through the old man's body.

Colored opium was often made by children.

What appears inside the old man's body is the past life experienced by the person who made the opium.

"call--"

The old man exhaled a puff of smoke, the mist flashing like a revolving lantern, depicting a man's life, which drifted into the jade carvings along the mountain path as he exhaled.

The next moment, the jade carving opened its eyes and stood up. It was clearly the appearance of a noble person from the celestial capital.

He bowed towards the mountain peak, then turned and left.

The old man opened his eyes at that moment, his gaze deep and vast, as if igniting the entire galaxy.

However, a chilling greed flickered in his pupils, making the wind in the whole world seem to carry a hint of morbidity.

"You've chosen yet another guest?"

The old man's eyes were fixed on the roof, which was like a shattered mirror, divided into countless small pieces, each shimmering with a different image.

It is a temple barrier.

"Heh heh, barely qualifying as a half-step Five Organs Immortal."

"Compared to the kid named Zhige from twenty years ago, he's far inferior now."

At that moment, as the old man spoke, the Jade Mountain where he was located resonated, emitting a clear female voice that only he could hear.

"Luan Ke, who comprehended the Dao of Cause and Effect at level 3, is no less talented than Wang Lingguan."

"What, you think he can break the immortal magic?"

The old man slowly sat up straight. On his almost transparent body, he wore a wide-sleeved, belted robe, a yellow silk double-tasseled sash, and a Taoist hat in his arms.

"That Star Lord Yinghuo, whom I sent into the illusion, is actually quite interesting."

"Forget about a mere level 3 Luan Ke."

"Even if he has comprehended the Dao of Cause and Effect, can he use it? Absolutely not!"

The old man shook his head and said, "More than twenty years ago, Zhi Ge was able to break some of the immortal techniques and then awaken you. This was not only because he was a level 9 King Spirit Official, but also because he had an absolute sage by his side."

"Unfortunately, those two young men saw through the essence of the Immortal Scripture. They only dissected and practiced half of the scripture, mastered that supernatural power, and then left."

The old man's gaze fell upon the four dragon-carved pillars, where black flags bearing the character "Qin" fluttered in the wind.

He sneered, "Now I regret that I listened to you and didn't try to keep those two young men."

"If those two juniors were here, you and I might have already broken free from the shackles of the immortal scriptures."

The female voice appeared again, saying, "You can't beat that Wang Lingguan."

"Heh heh, I have after all entered the Spirit Realm Venerable realm. In the Shang and Zhou dynasties, I would be considered an immortal. I can risk my life to save those two."

"They have been kind to me."

The old man was taken aback, and the trace of morbid desire in his eyes lessened a bit. He said, "Jie, you've been dead for almost two thousand years. I had forgotten that you were the leader of the Mohist school."

"You have your principles, and I have mine."

"But we've both been trapped here for far too long." "You've seen it all over the past twenty-odd years. Neither alive nor dead."

Xu Fu looked at the ground and said, "I used the Spirit Realm Lord's ability to rewind time. After everyone had decayed, I used the energy of Jade Mountain to rewind time."

"But... the Three Corpses are outside, and the people we brought from Yingzhou have been influenced by our Three Corpses and have begun to fall into demonic possession."

“Especially you, having slept for nearly two thousand years, your three corpses have materialized and become that [Alien Devourer].

"If one day, our three corpses become powerful enough and develop sentience, they will take away our destiny."

"This Yingzhou Immortal Scripture is not a path for humans to become immortals, but a method for achieving immortality through the Three Corpses!!"

"Wasn't I the one who was killed first?"

Xu Fu paused slightly, then suddenly sighed and said, "Recently, some children have reported the discovery of alien beings that possess human emotions."

"You know what this means."

Xu Fu said slowly and deliberately, "Your three corpses have become sentient.

"I have already sent people to arrest him."

"No need, I noticed it a long time ago. Now that it has appeared, even if you kill this one, there will be another."

The woman's voice was soft and gentle as she said, "Let that Luan Ke give it a try."

“Give him the immortal scriptures and let him walk the path we came from. Although his cultivation level is low, he cannot see through the true nature of the immortal scriptures.”

"Unlike Zhi Ge, who realized things were going badly halfway through and decided to quit while he was ahead."

Xu Fu was silent for a moment, then said, "Let's see if he can survive."

On the temple barrier, where Ji Ran was, the Mo family's flying boat and the Yin-Yang sect's airship had already surrounded him in the torrential rain, their killing intent aimed directly at Ji Ran!
Further back, over a hundred travelers fled frantically, while thousands of blood-red-eyed demons and monsters, densely packed together, devoured everything like a black tide.

"That Mars Star Lord wants to devour everyone to elevate his own cultivation level."

Xu Fu said slowly, "If this boy survives, I will give him a chance."

"You know, that's not an illusion at all."

"It was me who traced back his primordial spirit, traversing two thousand years of time."

"If he can't surprise me, then let's not waste his time; I'll just eat him."

"it is good."

The woman's voice agreed, but then said, "When you let Zhige go, he said that if he had the chance, he would send some damned people to replenish your spirituality."

"Him too?"

"Do not."

Xu Fu's expression suddenly turned strange, and he said, "Only he was not sent in by Zhi Ge."

“When they came in, I saw cause and effect.”

"Some people are implicated by the scope of the crime, some are implicated by possession, but he was the one whose cause and effect were altered."

“Someone wants him to come in.”

Xu Fu's voice suddenly became much softer, and he said, "It's the same person who sent Zhi Ge in back then."

After a long while, the woman's voice said again: "When you go back in time to him, give him my identity."

"I want to see how far he can go."

"Okay, but you'll owe me a favor."

"can."

E Qiansu said with a smile, "They're all guests, but the feeling he gives me is... different."

Xu Fu shook his head and said, "Compared to stopping war, it's a far cry from stopping it."

"not necessarily."

The woman's voice was soft and gentle, gradually fading away.

Xu Fu got up, walked to the temple gate, and looked out at the dark clouds covering the fields.

Heaven has changed.
