My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

After Chapter 156, I'll ascend to your bowl.

Bai Chijing didn't believe her words, because what this little girl said was tantamount to saying "the last time I saw you was the last time." If the blessed land was so easy to enter, then it wouldn't be a blessed land.

A blessed land is only a blessed land for its owner.

However, there was no need to worry about this matter at the moment. Bai Chijing looked at the "Seedless Immortal-Slaying Weapon" that had been returned with some surprise and asked, "Does this thing have a significant origin?"

"It concerns the beginning of the Heavenly Dao, what do you say?" First Ling Jia nodded in response.

"The beginning of the Heavenly Dao?" Upon hearing this, Bai Chijing's tone changed slightly, because as the girl uttered this word, his Immortal Path Foundation displayed its power, and he once again saw the floating city that grew with the growth of heaven and earth.

However, unlike what was glimpsed through the entanglements of Su Taiyi, this floating city was still under construction and had not yet appeared in the sea of ​​clouds surrounded by auspicious signs.

That sea of ​​clouds was extraordinary, as it was formed by the gathering of a whole patch of auspicious clouds.

That's truly remarkable.

Therefore, Bai Chijing, without hesitation, reflected the "information" he had gleaned from Su Taiyi's cause and effect onto the little girl.

When Ling Jia finished reading, her face immediately showed astonishment. Then she opened her bright, dark eyes wide, which blinked rapidly.

"Little Xiao, what a skill!" the little girl exclaimed earnestly.

Then she said, "You've done us a great favor. Now we finally know why we're trapped in this world."

"This whole world? Does it include the area beyond the Ascension Gate?" Bai Chijing noticed the subtle meaning in the little girl's words and couldn't help but ask.

After all, given her experience of "ascending" more than two hundred times, that "ascension gate" didn't seem like a place that could trap this little girl.

“Of course it’s calculated. That place was originally similar to Yao Tian Realm, but later the true Heavenly Dao went there, which led to the changes that followed.” First Ling Jia didn’t try to hide anything.

Knowing Bai Chijing wouldn't understand, she said, "I told you, I once transformed myself from a shattered remnant soul, but my immortal soul shattered back then, not because I opened up a new path of cultivation that required me to undergo a death tribulation. Actually, at that time, I simply regained memories from a much earlier time. I remembered that I had died once before. And that time, I died in that immortal realm city you saw, Little A Xiao..."

She paused, then continued, "Because the memories I gained back then were too fragmented, I simply took advantage of this near-death experience to relive those feelings, hoping to regain those memories. Unfortunately, I didn't succeed..."

After saying that, she spread her little hands.

Upon hearing this, Bai Chijing was initially startled, but then quickly came to terms with it.

Given this little girl's background, this isn't surprising at all.

Furthermore, if even Su Taiyi can come, why can't this little girl?
However, Bai Chijing still didn't understand Ling Jia's statement that "they are trapped in this world," and couldn't figure out what the connection was between the two.

But that didn't matter; he figured the little girl would talk, so he put on a show of listening attentively.

Then, Bai Chijing realized that what he thought was just his opinion.

Because the little girl stopped talking.

"Why did you stop talking?" Bai Chijing couldn't help but ask.

"You didn't ask!" Ling Jia blinked her bright, clear eyes, her delicate face looking particularly confused.

Bai Chijing was speechless, so he readily agreed: "Why did you just say that I helped you a lot? You 'you' should all be at the same cultivation level as you, right? With your level, how come you couldn't even perceive this information?"

If even he can do it, then someone with this little girl's cultivation level should find it even easier.

Why is it reversed?

Then, Ling Jia gave Bai Chijing an answer that was somewhat expected, yet also incredibly surprising: "You're right, we can't."

"Is there...some kind of significance to this?" Bai Chijing asked hurriedly.

"The realm we are in is called the Near Dao. And this true Heavenly Dao, while it is indeed the true Heavenly Dao, is no longer the original Heavenly Dao..."

Ling Jia then pursed her lips and said, "The true Heavenly Dao is mainly used to restrain us. Although this restraint has become largely ineffective, it still restrains us. Therefore, once we cultivate to our level, although we have the power to contend with the true Heavenly Dao, we will also lose some abilities that even True Immortals possess."

Bai Chi Jing suddenly realized.

No wonder, such horrifying things as refining the true Heavenly Dao have happened before.

It turns out these near-immortals didn't suddenly want to do anything. "Then why are you being trapped?" Bai Chijing asked again.

"You should have heard this answer before." This little girl rarely didn't answer directly, but instead kept everyone in suspense.

Upon hearing this, Bai Chijing thought for a moment, then said somewhat uncertainly, "Is it... Are immortals, Buddhas, and Heavenly Venerables born with special privileges?"

"Little Ah Xiao is so clever!"

The little girl praised him earnestly once again.

However, Bai Chijing didn't want this praise at all. At the same time, having received a positive answer, he was even more puzzled: "Aren't immortals and Buddhas all cultivated to become immortals? Can they be inherited through bloodline?"

"Why not?" First Ling Jia pointed to the mortal realm of Yao Tian, ​​then to the heavens, before continuing, "In the beginning, it wasn't like it is now. But now, you should be able to guess what the atmosphere is like in the heavens, right? And if it's like this here, what about over there?"

After saying this, Ling Jia left Bai Chi Jing's blessed land, but did not leave Yao Tian's mortal realm. The little girl then took a trip to that mortal realm.

Then, Bai Chijing discovered that the entire Yaotian Human Realm had been cut off from the Yaotian Realm.

Then they were all hung under his blessed land!
"Little Xiao, what do you think their expressions would be like if they ascended to your blessed land and found out they ascended there?" The spiritual reflection of First Ling Jia reappeared, and then the little girl said this, her tone full of mischievousness.

"You mean Zhou Shuyue and Su Taiyi?" Bai Chijing asked, but he didn't ask anything about the little girl's actions.

Because she was helping herself cultivate herself.

The separation between the mortal realm and the celestial realm of Yao, hanging beneath his blessed land, directly propelled his "existing even in non-existence" world. What was originally just a trace of color now imbued most of this "existing even in non-existence" world with color!

Undoubtedly, this move will come at a huge cost.

Otherwise, Shirochi Keigo would have tried it already.

Right now, this little girl is bearing the consequences for Bai Chijing.

As the master of a blessed land of Shangqing, he is just so willful and reckless.

Because Bai Chijing had already followed the little girl's aura and saw that black smoke was billowing everywhere in her Shangqing Blessed Land...

The Lin family cultivators from the First City, who were originally cultivating in this blessed land of Shangqing, were now in a state of extreme fear. One fled from the blessed land in terror, while the other was as pale as could be, clearly having been badly frightened.

“It’s not just these two,” Ling Jia replied to Bai Chijing’s question.

Bai Chijing wasn't surprised to hear this, since if it were just Zhou Shuyue and Su Taiyi, they were just incidental from the beginning. And since two more were incidentally included, two more wouldn't hurt.

So he asked with some curiosity, "Su Taiyi came from that Cloud Sea Immortal City, so what about Zhou Shuyue? Is she from the same place?"

“I see the shadow of Gong Qinghuang in her, but she is far inferior to this woman… Hmm? No, she should be no less than this woman, but she was just unlucky to encounter a vicious and evil supreme being.” As Ling Jia said this, her brows were slightly furrowed, but when she suddenly saw Bai Chijing, she began to nod as she spoke.

"How could it be me who suppressed her..." Bai Chijing denied directly. Su Taiyi must have been influenced by him, but Zhou Shuyue was definitely not.

After all, he helped her so much at the beginning, yet it took her three years to reach the Outer Heaven Realm.

It's still the kind of trickery.

Ling Jia, upon hearing Bai Chijing's words, didn't dwell on the topic any further. After all, what she saw wouldn't lie to her. Zhou Shuyue's background was no less impressive than that of Gong Qinghuang. Even she needed the perspective of the Heavenly Dao to see some of the truth. But no matter how extraordinary one's background, there's always a period of clandestine development.

As luck would have it, at this crucial juncture, this fairy, who was no less beautiful than Gong Qinghuang, encountered the only malevolent supreme being of her time.

As a result, his power, which was enough to influence the entire world, was directly suppressed.

Afterwards, the power originating from Zhou Shuyue's complete body attempted to emerge into the world many times, but at that time there was first a barrier of human perception that permeated the world and had a tendency to become eternal, and then there was a world that "exists even when it doesn't exist," which completely blocked that power.

The young girl was about to leave, but before she did, she had another idea and said, "There are many near-Dao Immortals in the Underworld, but not all of them belong to our group."

"Huh?" Bai Chijing asked in surprise.

"For example, the swordless swordsman who has a great grudge against a certain evil supreme being, he is not on our side. Even the method he used to become a near-path can be copied." A soft, clear voice spoke, and the little girl's figure had naturally vanished without a trace.
