My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 149 suggests that two old men are suppressing the "Chosen One" and the "Chosen One."

"It feels like it's going to be a cliché..." Bai Chijing couldn't help but think. The "chosen one" who possesses power surpassing all others in the world, and the "chosen one" with a great background and unparalleled beauty—he could already foresee how the plot would develop.

I don't know why, but when I think about it, I have a strange feeling that I've seen it somewhere before.

Because it's very familiar.

But that's not important.

Importantly, Bai Chijing suddenly realized that the young man Zhou Shuyue had approached was far inferior to Tai'a in both his performance and his cultivation speed.

When Ling Jia mentioned it to him before, she mentioned that Tai A had cultivated to the point of becoming an immortal in just over a year under extremely adverse circumstances, and that he was at least at the second stage of the immortal realm.

Bai Chijing never dared to dream of such a cultivation speed.

Now that the mythical era has arrived, this young man, who is a figure like Tai'a, should at least have reached a high level of understanding in three years, if not the second stage of True Immortal.

But how come they're only evenly matched with Zhou Shuyue now?

However, it is outside the realm of the Middle World!
Moreover, considering Zhou Shuyue's status as the "Daughter of Destiny," she should have a "personal grandmother," so why is her cultivation speed so slow? You should know that Zhou Shuyue was able to reach the initial stage of the Outer World Realm in three years, which was also due to her using many True Immortal techniques.

Thinking about it this way, Bai Chijing felt that it was not only strange, but also that there was a lot of hidden secrets!

So, with a thought, he directly used the power of his immortal path foundation to cross realms and arrive at the Netherworld.

The Netherworld is vast, even larger than the world beyond the "Ascension Gate".

Because if someone doesn't know the way, even an immortal of Bai Chijing's level would get lost here!
Yes, I'm lost!
Not lost!

The underworld is truly bizarre!
In this world, there are many beings who are close to the Dao. Some of them are those whose own worlds have been destroyed, while others are those who, after transforming into the Heavenly Dao through the Human Dao, have helplessly fallen into obscurity.

The former was looking for a place to stay, while the latter was sent here by others who respected their choice.

Because if the latter can find a "scapegoat," it is not impossible for it to wake up again!

And this dark and gloomy place is undoubtedly the most suitable place to find a "scapegoat"! After all, in all the worlds, where else are there more immortals close to the Dao than here?

Even in the realm beyond the "Ascension Gate," where the true Heavenly Dao resides, the number of near-Dao immortals is less than one-tenth of that here!

The number of ancient monsters here is terrifying.

However, besides these two types of near-immortals, there is a third type.

The third type has a more complex composition.

For example, there was the Swordless Swordsman who was forced to fall to fourth place on the list of the most vicious and evil beings because Bai Chijing ascended to the top! He was a kind of near-immortal with complex components.

This type of near-immortal who resides in the underworld has a very special way of being born, because their experiences can be replicated, thus allowing them to become new near-immortals!

There's no need to follow a set path of practice!

Therefore, these near-immortals are less true immortals at the end of the immortal path and more like mortals who have mastered great power.

Of course, each of these people also has their own extraordinary qualities.

Without the swordsman, he created the extremely vicious immortal scripture "Three Souls and Seven Spirits Heavenly Blade Immortal Technique". Although the name of this scripture sounds like it is about refining immortal souls into heavenly blades, it is actually not refining oneself, but rather the ten evil thoughts of the human world.

The existence of the Evil Sword Immortal in Bai Chijing's memory is one such example of a malevolent thought in the human world.

As for that little girl who ran off from the heavens of Yaotian Realm, she is an exception among exceptions and does not belong to the three old monsters of the Yinming Land.

Immortals like this young girl, who are close to the Dao, are actually easily suppressed once they arrive in the Netherworld.

However, judging from her lively and energetic nature, and the fact that she could run to the Shu Mountain Realm more than a hundred years ago to fight five people of the same level, it is clear that the suppression of the Yinming Land was meaningless to her.

At this moment, Bai Chijing had already arrived in a city in the Netherworld.

This city is called "First City".

Built tens of thousands of years ago, but only fully completed nearly three hundred years ago, because the master of this city finally came to the land of the underworld!

This first city was specially built by some cultivators in the Netherworld after they learned of the existence of the First Lingjia! Their purpose was to attract the attention of the First Lingjia, so as to summon this near-immortal to descend to this place!

Judging from the fact that Ling Jia chose to protect the people of this city after leaving Yaotian Realm and arriving here, the purpose of those who built this city has been perfectly achieved.

When Bai Chijing looked up, he saw an enormous stone statue, towering like a mountain peak.

The entire stone statue shows no signs of cutting or carving, appearing as if it were formed naturally.

The description of this stone statue is naturally that little girl.

However, it wasn't the short, stocky figure Bai Chijing was familiar with, but rather the image of a young woman. Although it was a stone statue, its eyes were incredibly sharp, and the entire statue exuded a heroic and spirited aura.

If it weren't for the two magical treasures that Bai Chijing was familiar with floating around, he wouldn't have recognized them at first glance.

After all, the contrast is too great.

Bai Chijing looked at the stone statue with a thoughtful expression. When he first arrived, his cultivation was only at the second level of the Immortal Path, so he couldn't see anything. But now that he had stepped into the third level, he suddenly noticed many things he had discovered before.

For example, at this moment, a remnant soul is slowly condensing inside this stone statue.

The appearance of this remnant soul was exactly the same as that of the stone statue.

"Little Xiao, what brings you here? Hmm, your thoughts on transcending the mortal world seem a little different?" The voice of First Ling Jia appeared in Bai Chijing's ears.

As the master of this place, he actually has a very strong grasp of control over this premier city.

Bai Chijing was discovered by Ling Jia as soon as he arrived.

Even at this moment, Bai Chijing is in a state where the outer realm of mind and the spiritual platform heaven have enhanced the outer realm of mind.

"I feel that the third cultivation path, 'The Three Thousand Treasures of the Mortal World,' which involves changing circumstances, has a high degree of overlap with the true immortal abilities I have already mastered, so it is not very useful. Therefore, I have opened up a fourth cultivation path, 'The Flaws of Time'! This is to fit my self-created 'Ten Greedy Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture'." Bai Chijing explained in detail.

After all, these kinds of things only have meaning if they are spoken out!
She revealed herself, then glanced sideways at Ling Jia, Bai Chijing's number one: "..."

She was just saying it casually, there was no need to go into such detail, was there?

"You've opened up the path to immortality?" Ling Jia's tone was somewhat complicated when she said this, and then the little girl pointed at the stone statue with her small hand.

“Then you’ll have to follow in my footsteps from now on, Little Xiao.” The little girl said. “Is that the old you inside?” Bai Chijing asked.

"It is my former remnant soul. At that time, my soul was shattered, and because I opened the path of immortality, I was no longer protected by the immortal path and could not reassemble for ten thousand years. So I simply used the remnant soul as soil and my own path as seed to nurture myself anew." First Ling Jia said with a pout, because that's why she needed to go to Yao Tian Renjian to perform the work of returning to her rightful place.

Bai Chijing: "..."

No wonder he's someone even the heavens above Yao Tian wouldn't dare offend!
After leaving only a remnant soul, it not only regenerated itself from that shattered soul, but also once again reached the end of the immortal path!
Compared to this little girl, Bai Chijing suddenly felt a little ashamed.

He has only pioneered a new path of cultivation, yet he is already so complacent; this is truly unacceptable!
Bai Chijing, having regained his composure, calmed himself and told Ling Jia the purpose of his trip.

He came to consult with Ling Jia about the matter concerning the boy and Zhou Shuyue.

Because this "chosen one" is simply incomparable to Tai'a, but rather to Zhou Shuyue, the "chosen one." Although she has a remarkable background and possesses extraordinary abilities in cultivation, she still cannot be compared to the "chosen one" of the previous mythological era!

After all, Gong Qinghuang directly borrowed the Tai'a Immortal Path to perfection!
It even seems to combine the expertise of both immortals and Buddhas, making its cultivation extremely profound and unfathomable.

"Now that you mention it, it does seem to make sense!" Upon hearing this, Ling Jia became interested and said, "Then take me to see it, and while you're at it, you can help me manage this city for a while."

Bai Chijing nodded immediately after hearing this.

Having opened the path to immortality, Bai Chijing learned from Ling Jia that his future path would be difficult, so he decided to cultivate here.

At the very least, one must learn the method to regenerate oneself from a remnant soul!

For Bai Chijing, this was not only a life-saving technique, but also a supreme method that could restore him to his peak condition in a short time.

Then, Bai Chijing went to see the true form of the First Ling Jia.

Because the little girl who appeared beside him at this moment was merely a manifestation of Ling Jia's inspiration. Her gaze fell upon this place, and heaven and earth directly responded to it.

The place where Ling Jia is located is in the deepest part of this first city, a place that looks very ordinary.

However, once you step into a certain area, the view transforms into a paradise on earth.

This is naturally a blessed place.

If Bai Chijing could elevate his own blessed land to a higher level, how much more so would someone of the First Lingjia realm? Moreover, the First Lingjia's blessed land had already reached its peak.

Blessed Lands are not divided in detail, only roughly referred to as "Initial Treasure," "Middle Palace," and "Upper Clarity." (The Immortal Realm is disregarded, so we'll keep this simple.)

Bai Chijing's blessed land is currently naturally a blessed land at the "Initial Treasure" level.

And the first one, Lingjia's, is the Shangqing Blessed Land!

The ultimate in blessed land!

At this blessed place, many people are currently practicing cultivation.

Without exception, all of these cultivators were from the Netherworld within the First City. Having worshipped the First Lingjia for ten thousand years, attracting him to their location, the First Lingjia naturally wouldn't refuse their requests to cultivate in this blessed land.

To worship a near-immortal for ten thousand years is not something an ordinary force, nor even a single cultivator, could accomplish. Therefore, the cultivator who worships the First Lingjia is a great clan from the Underworld.

The imperial pardon was carried out at the Lin family residence.

The four characters at the beginning—"Patrolling and Pardoning Laws"—are the prefix of this great clan's title, and this is also a characteristic of the great clans in the Underworld.

When members of the family go out, they all use this prefix to distinguish themselves when announcing their family name.

The reason why the Lin family has this reputation is because its guardian spirits are mainly responsible for maintaining order, and have given rise to several specific cultivation methods.

Therefore, the Lin family members often boast that they are the divinely ordained arbiters of the underworld.

Therefore, the Lin family desperately needed a Daoist immortal as a backer.

The protective spirit cultivation of the Lin family members was novel to Bai Chijing, but he had seen it during his last visit, so he didn't watch it this time.

He went straight to the highest point of the blessed land, and without saying a word, picked up a little girl and left.

This caused the spiritual reflection right next to Bai Chijing to roll its eyes and mutter under its breath, "Little Xiao, carrying it like this looks so ugly!"

“No one saw it.” Bai Chijing said, then gave First Ling Jia a look that said, “You can trust me to do things.”

Immortals nearing the Dao do not laugh, for if they did, in a hundred years or so, a young girl of the same rank would come knocking on their door. As for those below the level of Immortals nearing the Dao, it is naturally difficult for them to see through Bai Chijing's inner thoughts.

With Bai Chijing's and Ling Jia's cultivation levels, returning from the Yinming Land to the Yaotian Human Realm only requires taking one step.

Upon arriving in Yaotian, Ling Jia learned everything about the "Chosen One".

So, the little girl couldn't help but ask the same question as Bai Chijing: "Little Xiao, you're not wrong. Although this chosen one's aura and fortune do indeed match that of a chosen one, for some reason, his status as a chosen one seems to be suppressed by someone, making it impossible for him to fully develop."

Once the destiny of the chosen one unfolds, it will have recurring effects on interpersonal relationships, opportunities, and spiritual talents.

In short, wealth, companions, methods, and resources not only gather on their own, but also continuously improve.

But now, this young man's destiny as the chosen one seems to be being watched by some terrifying being, making him not only hesitant and restrained, but also trembling with fear and afraid to fully unleash his potential.

First, Ling Jia glanced at the boy again, then suddenly thought of something. With her inspired self, she looked at Bai Chijing with a strange expression.

The most vicious and evil ruler!

The mysterious energy of man, the mysterious energy of earth, and the mysterious energy of heaven not only gathered together, but also blossomed into the two flowers of life source and worldly manifestation!
The third stage of cultivation after attaining immortality in the mortal realm!

These three points combined, if applied to someone who has reached the level of a chosen one, then naturally, are not to be feared. But if this chosen one has not yet reached that level, then how can one not be afraid of their potential?
After all, quite a few people know a thing or two about what's on the list of the most vicious and evil creatures.

Moreover, there are countless beings that feed on luck.

Seeing Ling Jia looking at him like that, Bai Chijing reacted quickly. He soon realized what was going on and said with some surprise, "You mean, the reason this Chosen One is like this is because of my existence?"

"Call me Mother!" Ling Jia said somewhat reluctantly.

Bai Chijing didn't shout; he was already "all grown up." So he deliberately looked at the little girl and said, "So, is that Chosen One like that too?"

If the chosen one was suppressed by him, then what about the chosen one?
