Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 465 The Invitation of the Primordial Beginning
Lin Yu raised an eyebrow and examined the bow and arrow in his hand with great interest.

In the novel *Investiture of the Gods*, both of these treasures were used by the Yellow Emperor to defeat Chiyou. They were later passed down to the Shang Dynasty and kept by Li Jing, the general of Chentang Pass, becoming the guardian treasures of Chentang Pass.

However, in this world, the setting of Chen Tang Pass has been changed, and neither the Qiankun Bow nor the Zhentian Arrow makes an appearance.

Lin Yu originally thought that these two treasures had been cut, but he never expected that they were hidden in the Jade Void Treasury and became the collection of the Chan Sect and the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

"What about the other treasures?"

Lin Yu raised his head with great interest, looking at the school of fish swimming freely in the treasure vault.

The next second, dazzling golden light burst forth from his eyes, like two radiating beams of light that swept across the entire ocean.

In an instant, all the fish-shaped treasures disintegrated and reformed into shimmering treasures in his vision.

Lin Yu's gaze swept over these treasures, and he found that a considerable number of them were well-known magical artifacts that he recognized quite well.

They have everything imaginable, including gold bricks, embroidered balls, vajras, demon-binding ropes, and yin-yang swords.

It can be said that, apart from the opportunities they obtained on their own, such as the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear, the famous magical treasures of the third-generation disciples of the Chan Sect who have not yet appeared are almost all stored in the treasure vault.

Even the Twelve Golden Immortals, and even the Primordial Heavenly Lord himself, possessed one or two such treasures.

"Truly worthy of being called the treasure trove of Jade Void Palace!"

"Even a projection of the Middle Thousand Worlds is so wealthy!"

Lin Yu was amazed. After a moment's thought, he immediately waved his sleeve and collected some magical treasures and spiritual objects that were not bound by karma and did not belong to certain important figures in the future.

After doing all this, Lin Yu turned his head and looked at a glass lamp shimmering with golden light in the center of the treasure vault.

This lamp is made of innate glass, and is crystal clear throughout. Its surface is engraved with primordial runes, and the flame burning in the wick is pure golden in color. It is the Ancient Flame of Myriad Spirits, one of the four legendary heavenly flames.

With the appearance of the Ancient Flame of Myriad Spirits, the identity of this lamp becomes self-evident.

"One of the Eight Treasures of the Jade Void Palace, the Jade Void Glazed Lamp!"

Lin Yu stared intently at the glass lamp, muttering to himself as if to himself, "It is, after all, a treasure transformed from the lotus root of the Green Lotus, and shares the same origin as the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi."

"Such a treasure, ordinary people would cherish it too much, but Yuanshi Tianzun, because he has so many treasures of his own, only uses this lamp as a lighting device when he preaches. It is simply a waste of resources, like occupying a latrine without using it!"

"Rather than leaving this lamp here and letting its brilliance be obscured, I'd better take it away today, which can be considered as restoring this innate treasure to its rightful place!"

These words were spoken with great righteousness and a sense of duty, as if they were the only ones who could do it.

After the sound spread, the golden flame in the center of the Jade Void Glazed Lamp trembled slightly. After a moment of silence, it finally let out a sigh full of helplessness.

"Fellow Taoist, please show mercy!"

"Although this lamp does not possess the magical power of the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, it is the foundation of our Chan Sect's lineage and the basis for the Jade Void Palace's oversight of the Three Realms' order. It is truly difficult to bestow it upon you, fellow Daoist. I hope you will forgive me!"

Lin Yu raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, not surprised at all. Instead, he said with a half-smile, "According to your opinion, fellow Daoist, all the remaining treasures in the Jade Void Treasury can be 'gifted' to me?"

"..."

The voice in the golden flames was momentarily speechless, and after a moment it said helplessly, "Since you have come without informing me and taken it without asking, why do you have to dig so deep and press me so hard?"

"Isn't this for teaching you guys?"

Lin Yu's smile faded, and he said calmly, "Under the guise of capturing demons, they refine all living beings to enhance the strength of the Chan Sect. Don't tell me that you, as their master, were completely unaware of the evil deeds committed by the Boundless Immortal Elder over the past thousand years!"

At this point, Lin Yu paused, glancing at the glass lamp, and said:

"Besides, who said I came without permission?"

"Didn't I already tell you when we were at Chentang Pass?"

"Otherwise, why would you have stood by and watched me sneak into the treasure vault and take the treasure at will?"

Upon hearing this, the voice within the golden flames immediately fell silent.

After a long silence, he sighed and said, "Fellow Daoist's frankness is truly unexpected..."

Lin Yu nodded and said matter-of-factly, "That's true. I don't have many other merits, but I like to speak the truth."

"Not interfering with the Heavenly Tribulation Curse and not affecting the Investiture of the Gods is already a concession I made out of respect for you, fellow Daoist."

"In that case, it's only right that we come to the Jade Void Treasury to collect some payment and hush money, isn't it?"

Although the Primordial Celestial Venerable of this world is not the original deity of the main world, since he has the name of Primordial, it is impossible for him to be completely unrelated to the original deity.

For this reason, Lin Yu has always exercised restraint in his actions in this realm.

Not only did they not erase the Heavenly Tribulation Curse of Yuanshi Tianzun, thus not interfering with Nezha's future origin in the Chan Sect, but they also gave advance notice when taking treasures from Yuxu Palace, and skipped those magical treasures that were to be given to the disciples of the Chan Sect in the future to shine in the Investiture of the Gods, only taking some rare treasures that were not related to karma.

Of course, this level of behavior would be considered extremely arrogant and overbearing by anyone else.

But for someone of Lin Yu's stature, it's perfectly natural, an unspoken understanding.

Even so, Lin Yu's blunt and unreserved words still displeased the voice in the golden flames.

"Is that so?" The voice in the golden flames said calmly, "Since you are so sincere, I will also treat you with sincerity. If it is really as you say, then what about the tokens in the Demon Orb and the Spirit Orb?"

“…Fine!” Lin Yu’s eyes widened as he glared at the glass lamp, then turned the tables and said, “You cunning old bastard, you really do know everything!”

"Each each other!"

The voice from within the golden flames retorted without backing down, "Fellow Daoist, you stole a third-generation disciple of my Chan Sect and plundered the treasures of my Jade Void Treasury. You're not far behind!"

Upon hearing this, both sides fell silent, clearly harboring their own ulterior motives and feeling guilty.

After a moment, Lin Yu coughed and said, "What do you mean by 'stealing'? Can something you know and I know be called stealing?"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable said calmly, "Then they stole my Chan Sect's third-generation disciples..."

Lin Yu retorted, "Who stole it? I didn't accept him as my disciple, I just gave him a token. It's nothing rare. If you want one too, what's wrong with giving you one?"

Yuanshi Tianzun: "..."

After a brief silence, he coughed lightly and said, "Fellow Daoist, is what you say... true?"

Lin Yu was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise, "You really want it?"

Yuanshi Tianzun remained silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Wanling Guyi is one of the four great heavenly fires, possessing the ability to see through the essence of all things and trace the cause and effect of the past and present."

"Of all things in this world, among all living beings, very few can escape the insight of the Golden Flame."

"Fellow Daoist is a visitor from beyond the heavens, naturally transcending the Three Realms and outside the Five Elements."

“But the token was clearly made of ordinary material, yet it was still not within the scope of the glass lamp’s detection.”

"How could we possibly miss such a rare treasure?"

"You're waiting?" Lin Yu's heart stirred. "Are the other two fellow Daoists also with you?"

"Indeed!" Yuanshi Tianzun's tone carried a hint of a smile. "We are currently compiling the Investiture of the Gods in the void. Since you are a visitor from beyond the heavens, would you like to come and chat in the void?"

"..."

Lin Yu raised an eyebrow and snorted, "What's there to be afraid of?"

Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun said nothing more, and immediately manipulated the golden flames in the glass lamp to manifest a white auspicious cloud hanging high in the sky in front of Lin Yu.

Above the auspicious clouds, a solitary wooden gate stands prominently.

If Lin Yu remembered correctly, it was the Void Gate that appeared in the first movie!

As the Three Pure Ones of this world, Yuanshi Tianzun and his two fellow disciples have long transcended the Three Realms and are no longer bound by the Five Elements.

This void gate is one of the ways to escape the Three Realms and travel to the smaller void beyond them.

Seeing the scene of the golden flames evolving, Lin Yu naturally understood the meaning of the Primordial Celestial Venerable.

With a thought, he locked onto the location of the auspicious cloud, then with a flick of his sleeve, he tore through space and stepped directly into the sky where the white auspicious cloud was.

Of course, out of courtesy, he did not forget to unseal the four divine beasts before leaving.

Especially Dongfang Qinglong, who had been tied in a tight knot, was finally able to escape his awkward situation of being unable to move...

With a flash of silver light, a handsome young man in a white robe appeared on the auspicious cloud.

Before he could make any further move, a lucky cloud emerged from below.

Its main body is in the shape of flowing clouds, with a cloud crown on its head, two long beards, and a pair of eyes that bulge out from its long face like light bulbs, staring at Lin Yu with shining eyes.

"Hey, what incredible luck I've struck!"

"Two groups of young men came to visit me in just one day!"

"Judging from your ethereal appearance, you must be a disciple of the Chan Sect!"

"Quickly, quickly, have a few cups of tea with your senior master and chat for a bit. Don't be like that fatso Taiyi, who finally comes all this way but doesn't even know how to stay a little longer..."

The cloud figure was full of excitement, chattering away as he circled around Lin Yu, conjuring up a long table and teacups made of clouds, seemingly intending to sit down and have a few drinks with him.

Lin Yu looked at the cloud creature beside him with great interest, thinking that this must be the Longevity Cloud that supports the Void Gate!
According to the movie, Changshengyun entered the immortal realm earlier than Taiyi, but because he had to support the Void Gate, he stayed in the immortal realm for a long time.

Years of loneliness have shaped his amusing and talkative nature.

Lin Yu didn't dislike this comedic character who drove the plot forward, so he didn't reveal his identity directly. Instead, he sat down as the character suggested and picked up his teacup with a smile.

"You are Changsheng Yun?"

"Exactly!"

Chang Shengyun initially responded smugly, but then realized what he meant and glared at him, saying, "How dare you! Which generation of disciple are you? Which Golden Immortal are you from?"

"How can you not know how to respect the elderly and care for the young, daring to address your elders by their given names?"

Chang Shengyun was furious for a moment, but quickly changed the subject and muttered, "Fine, I'll just call him by his full name if he wants. As long as he's willing to stay a few more days, it's fine for him to call me Xiao Yunyun!"
