My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 160 Blessed Land Karma Loan

The world was not originally called by this name, but history is written by the victors, so it came to be. After all, the original Heavenly Dao of the world was destroyed, and the Heavenly Dao that was later formed became the "head of the jailers" of this world. So what if this world is called by this name?
However, no one could have imagined that so many near-immortals would later emerge from this predicament.

They are all near-immortals who possess the rudiments of immortality within their bodies!
For the Immortal Realm, this imprisonment has become a hot potato. It cannot be abandoned, but if it is kept, then the near-immortals within this imprisonment will inevitably emerge sooner or later.

Fortunately, there are immortals in this world. These immortals can greatly delay the time it takes to escape from this predicament, and it is even possible that one day they can completely solve the problem of being trapped in this world.

Within the Immortal Realm, in the Immortal Abode of Shuyue, after Zhou Shuyue told Gong Qinghuang what she knew, Gong Qinghuang was naturally astonished. She was also very surprised that such a person could appear in the mortal realm of Yaotian Realm, and that he did not even grow up in the mythical world.

Gong Qinghuang was about to speak when someone walked quickly towards them.

She is also a female immortal.

Her beauty goes without saying; she wore a simple white long dress, exuding a cool and gentle aura. Her long hair flowed freely, and her features were exquisite. As she walked, the surrounding clouds swirled, forming a series of ink wash landscape paintings.

However, unlike Wenye of the Wuxin Sect, this person, although also using ink wash landscape paintings as a manifestation of divine signs, is fundamentally different from Wenye.

But this is not because Wen Ye and this woman cultivate different things, but because the difference in their cultivation levels is too great!

She is also a beautiful fairy.

The reason Wen Ye was able to perform such a heaven-defying act as walking among mortals was simply because of a poem he wrote, which unintentionally won the woman's favor.

Upon seeing Shi Meixian enter, Zhou Shuyue quickly stood up to greet her: "Sister Shi, has something happened?"

"It's all because of those lowly lower-ranking immortals in my immortal city, they're causing trouble again!"

The woman was aloof and beautiful, but the words she spoke were incredibly arrogant.

She looked annoyed, her eyes filled with coldness.

This was naturally not directed at Zhou Shuyue, but at the "lowly immortals" she mentioned, after all, she and Zhou Shuyue had been good sisters for thousands of years.

"Sister Shi, didn't you give them three promotion slots every hundred years? What more could they possibly want?" Zhou Shuyue was immediately filled with righteous indignation upon hearing this. She snorted coldly, "If it weren't for that Qionglu Immortal, would they still want three slots every hundred years?"

The changes in all aspects of the Immortal Realm can be distinguished by the periods before and after the Qionglu Immortal Realm.

One hundred and eight thousand years ago, there was only one city in the entire Immortal Realm, but now there are many, because the Dao City that could grow and expand along with the Immortal Realm was destroyed.

The three promotion slots that Zhou Shuyue mentioned over the past century were completely nonexistent back then.

Although there are no mortal beings in the Immortal Realm, only immortals, not all immortals are equal. Those who make up ninety percent of the entire Immortal Realm are what the aloof and gentle woman referred to as "lower-level immortals."

As for the promotion quota, it was a decision made by the major immortal clans after discussions following the chaos of the Qionglu Immortals.

That is, every hundred years, within a celestial city, three "lower-level immortals" can pass numerous tests and become high-level "celestial officials"!
This would make those "lower-level immortals" feel that they still have hope of rising, so that they would not have to worry about a "sky-high immortal" causing a situation where a single person could command a large following.

"It's not about the quota. They're making a fuss because of the Blessed Land Karma Loan," the aloof yet beautiful Shi Meixian said calmly.

As she revealed the reason for this matter, the fog that had been obscuring Zhou Shuyue and Gong Qinghuang instantly dissipated. Seeing the vast universe beneath a speck of dust, they immediately understood the whole story.

Blessed lands hold immense appeal for all immortals. Even a mere initial blessed land is not something an ordinary immortal can create or evolve.

Moreover, if you want to establish a blessed land in the Immortal Realm, you must first purchase the "Immortal Heaven and Earth Contract" for the blessed land, and then the "Heavenly Blessing Gathering Gold" which is essential for the blessed land. This is to gather blessings in the future, so that the blessed land can generate spiritual energy after it is established, and drive away evil and avoid misfortune!
After these two conditions are met, if the blessed land wants to be developed and evolved without being destroyed by the Lord of the Immortal City, it also needs to pay a considerable "upper repair tax".

Only in this way can a blessed land of initial treasures be born normally.

However, the cost required to create and evolve a blessed land is undoubtedly an astronomical figure for the "lower-level immortals" in this immortal realm.

Even some well-off "lower-level immortals" need to exhaust the resources of their entire family to barely support one.

Thus, this Blessed Land Karma Loan came into being!
For Gong Qinghuang, Zhou Shuyue, and this aloof yet gentle Shimei Xian, this blessed land and karmic loan is undoubtedly a great blessing!
After all, they gave the "lower-level immortals" who were originally not qualified to create a blessed land for evolution the qualification to create evolution!
However, recently, an unexpected event occurred in the immortal city under the jurisdiction of this aloof and gentle immortal. A "lower-level immortal" prematurely took out a karmic loan for this blessed land, but failed to develop and evolve it in time. When it was time for him to develop and evolve the blessed land, it happened to be the time for him to repay the karmic loan!
This immortal was preparing to create a blessed land, and naturally, he emptied his pockets for this blessed land, so he couldn't repay it immediately.

Then, a celestial official intervened and took away ninety percent of the celestial power from that "lower-level immortal".

Establishing this blessed land was a crucial period.

Losing ninety percent of one's immortal achievements at such a time would naturally have enormous consequences. Not only would the creation of the blessed land fail, but the immortal who created it would also perish.

Even opening up a grotto can bring misfortune, let alone a blessed land?
To secure the loan qualification from the Blessed Land's Karmic Loan, this immortal had previously mortgaged his own fortune, as well as that of his parents and elders. With such a heavy burden of negative influence, how could this immortal possibly survive?

It's important to know that the eligibility requirements for the Blessed Land Karma Loan are quite high. Of the "lower-level immortals" who make up 90% of the Immortal Realm, more than half are ineligible.

Even those who qualify for this loan still have to pay a huge price, such as mortgaging their entire family's fortune.

Therefore, the death of this immortal made other immortals in the same situation feel the same way!

Then the matter escalated significantly.

So much so that this aloof and gentle woman, who possessed near-immortal cultivation and was also the city lord, had to come to seek outside help.

After learning about this matter, Gong Qinghuang understood that it was urgent.

Since the time of Qionglu Immortal, the most feared thing among the upper-level immortal clans in the entire Immortal Realm is anything that could easily involve Qionglu Immortal.

Although the Immortal of the Heavenly Palace died back then, it doesn't mean he can't be resurrected!
If the Celestial Immortal were allowed to return to the mortal realm, the immortal path would be enraged!

"Sister Shuyue, I'll go deal with this matter first. You should rest for a while. As for your losses, I will cover half of them for you." After saying this, Gong Qinghuang left Shuyue Immortal Mansion.

Zhou Shuyue was overjoyed upon hearing this.

"Thank you so much, Sister Tianjiagong!"

Gong Qinghuang's words were not casual. Because of her promise, the two Immortal Dao Forces appeared out of thin air and manifested again on Zhou Shuyue.

For a moment, Zhou Shuyue was radiant and her temperament was ethereal and otherworldly.

The understanding of the Dao by immortals is naturally related to the understanding of the Heavenly Dao by immortals. Originally, Zhou Shuyue wanted to emulate Gong Qinghuang in taking the "Scripture of One's Own Future Prospect" and take the "Scripture of Puppet Show," but unfortunately, she encountered Bai Chijing...

At this moment, as Zhou Shuyue thought of that name again, hatred welled up in her heart once more. However, at the same time, Zhou Shuyue found that her hatred for Bai Chijing suddenly surged for some reason.

That hatred was like a snowball, constantly piling up!
This left Zhou Shuyue somewhat taken aback.

It's normal for her to hate Bai Chijing. But no matter what, she is a near-immortal, and she shouldn't let her emotions get out of control like this.

unless……

Her near-immortal cultivation level allowed her to sense something in the darkness.

So, Zhou Shuyue began to look around.

The moment this thought arose in her mind, she realized the problem would appear in her vicinity. Yet, everything around her seemed normal, which surprised Zhou Shuyue.

At that moment, a long, slender hand that had emerged from Zhou Shuyue's shadow vanished into thin air as a wisp of green smoke.

……

"What is that place?"

The world under the rule of Yao.

Within that blessed land.

Bai Chijing looked somewhat surprised. Zhou Shuyue wanted to fight to the death, but she didn't seem to realize that she had spent three years cultivating with someone else back then.

And under whose blessed land does this current paradise of Yao and Tian hang?
So, at the very moment Zhou Shuyue escaped, some of Bai Chijing's power and energy were also taken away from this worldly predicament and entered that immortal realm.

Bai Chijing wanted to try to manifest himself directly in that world using the "Ten Greedy and Desireless Suffering Immortal Scripture," but unfortunately, Zhou Shuyue's power was too terrifying. Although it was not as strong as that little girl's, it was enough to suppress Bai Chijing instantly.

At first, Bai Chijing was able to make some moves because the other party didn't notice. However, after the other party had a sudden urge to target this area, Bai Chijing's plan was immediately thwarted.

However, Shirachi Kei did not come away empty-handed.
