My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 168 I think I'm about to give birth
There's an old saying that goes something like this—the old saying is so true!

As the saying goes, generals face generals, and soldiers face soldiers. Bai Chijing felt that he, a mere soldier, should not be facing a near-immortal. This heavy responsibility should be left to Ling Jia, the near-immortal.

After all, these two have some past grudges.

Having made his plans, Bai Chijing began to try to contact Ling Jia, the First One.

Generally speaking, with Bai Chijing's current cultivation level, it is impossible for him to contact the First Ling Jia. After all, Bai Chijing is not like Gong Qinghuang and does not have the special privileges to enter the Trapped World like her.

However, Bai Chijing can manifest a part of Ling Jia's memories, which can undoubtedly be used to convey a message.

……

Amidst the currents of the world, this vast world is experiencing a certain liveliness.

In the celestial realm of Yaotian, a near-immortal who no longer belongs to this world has appeared. With the return of this near-immortal who does not belong to this world, a Heavenly Dao Immortal Cultivation technique that cannot be mastered in the present day can suddenly be practiced.

This point is most clearly perceived by a figure, somewhat hunched over under the true suppression of the Heavenly Dao, in the realm beyond the "Ascension Gate."

This figure was none other than Bai Chijing's corrosive body.

He was born from Bai Chijing's secret, and although he copied everything Bai Chijing learned and could do, he was also tricked by Bai Chijing and lost one-tenth of his strength.

The "Ten Desires-Free Suffering Immortal Scripture," which can be considered the supreme method, is not even as good as an ordinary method in the hands of this body-corrupting one.

This made Shi Shen feel like he had seen a ghost.

They're exactly the same thing, so why is it that Bai Chijing's version has such terrifying power, while his is like a vast ocean poured into it? This directly leads him to completely avoid confronting Bai Chijing, because if he were to go, he'd just become a sacrificial offering.

At this moment, the corrosive entity seemed somewhat agitated.

"This is the Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation I created back then... Wasn't this method supposed to be impossible to replicate? How come it can be practiced again now?"

The body and mind are filled with turbulent emotions.

He was a man of great stature. If he hadn't been Bai Chijing's corrupted body, his background would have been enough to overpower most of the near-Dao immortals in the world, and even rival the true Heavenly Dao. But unfortunately, he listened to others and tried to shift his focus from the future to reversing the past, sacrificing all his cultivation for it.

Because of his poor background, his initial cultivation was riddled with flaws. If it weren't for the method he created to seize future merits, he would never have been able to reach his later levels.

Then, believing what others said, he fell directly into their scheme.

After that, they were unable to struggle free.

If it weren't for his creation of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation "Self-Future Prospect Scripture," which granted him a share of the destiny for cultivation in this world, he wouldn't have been able to leave behind a chance to reappear in the human world after his own complete annihilation.

Normally, this opportunity would have been a sure thing; he would definitely be able to revive successfully, refine that true body, and regain his true self. But who could have imagined that Bai Chijing's strange and unpredictable nature would cause even him to stumble?

He still has the courage to fight back against the person who plotted against him back then.

But when facing Bai Chijing, he didn't even have the courage to confront him directly. This was not only because he could be considered a great supplement on Bai Chijing's path of cultivation, but also because Bai Chijing was simply too eccentric.

No wonder that even though it was just a nascent technique, it directly suppressed the "Puppet Show Scripture" and ascended to the top of the list of the most vicious and evil!
He was familiar with the "Puppet Show Scripture," which was also a Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation. In fact, when he created the "Self-Future Vision Scripture," the "Puppet Show Scripture" was not yet a Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation.

This "Puppet Show Sutra" is different from the methods he created. It is a book that combines the strengths of all cultivators in the world and allows for gradual advancement.

In other words, it was initially listed on the list of the most vicious and evil creatures, but its ranking was not high; it was at the very bottom.

This is a puppet magic technique, but it is also a technique for all living beings.

If someone could cultivate to this level, the puppet calamity that has plagued so many great realms, as well as the immortal, Buddhist, and demonic paths for so long, could be instantly resolved.

However, by then, he felt that this book, "The Puppet Manual," would probably be targeted.

then……

He is repeating the mistakes of his "Self-Future Vision"!

The Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation is the ultimate form of law, but it also means that the true Heavenly Dao can be evolved from it. This is a situation that those eyeing us covetously outside this world cannot tolerate.

However, what puzzled him was that the Heavenly Dao Immortals all had the potential to evolve into the true Heavenly Dao, so why was the true Heavenly Dao here so wary of Bai Chijing? Even though Bai Chijing had only recently attained immortality, it still directly plotted against him.

After all, from Bai Chijing's perspective, although the evil sect was indeed evil, it did not pose any threat to the Heavenly Dao.

Thoughts of self-destruction raced through his mind, then calm returned. "My Dharma shall return!"

He said this at that moment.

Because this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Once you miss it, you'll never have the chance to experience it again!
Without hesitation, Shi Shen severed his own cultivation, which he had obtained by replicating Bai Chi Jing, and used it as nourishment to activate the "Self-Future Prospect Sutra".

He was extremely familiar with this method of self-destruction, but unfortunately, he had been unable to activate it for a long time.

However, at this moment, the corrosive energy was successfully activated in an instant.

Thus, this "Self-Future Vision Sutra" began to reap the fruits of future merit!
[You seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, severing the cultivation you obtained from Bai Chijing and using it as nourishment.]

[Your plan is very successful, because as you begin to activate the "Self-Future Vision Sutra," your long-dormant progress on the shortcut is showing signs of revival.]

As the fruits of your shortcut are regained, your lost memories begin to fully return. You finally remember everything from your past.

This makes you start to look gloomy.

Because you know you are no match for your opponent at this moment, and you are unsure if you can activate the "Self-Future Vision Sutra" again, you decide to go all in and begin removing the restrictions you imposed on this sutra years ago, attempting to break your opponent's complete control over it.

Although doing this would mean the complete loss of your unique past identity, and even the possibility of someone seizing your lineage, these risks are insignificant in your current state. If you're not having an easy time, then the woman who schemed against you back then shouldn't expect to have one either!

[As long as Gong Qinghuang lives, your hatred will never be quelled!]

Unfortunately, you were discovered by Gong Qinghuang, who had descended upon the world of Boundless Beings. But fortunately, Gong Qinghuang encountered a strange entity that caused your former junior sister, or rather, senior sister, to once again set their sights on the Yao Tian Realm...

The words are still dancing, and this is the future experience that this eroding body foresees.

These experiences may seem illusory now, but when this corrosive force begins to reap the rewards, they will instantly solidify, reversing reality from illusion to truth! This scripture is a Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation, truly deserving of its name! It has never revealed its brilliance in the past simply because it was schemed against too ruthlessly, stripping it of its authenticity as a Heavenly Dao Immortal Explanation. Furthermore, the creator left a serious loophole, allowing even those like Bai Chijing to forcibly cultivate it to success, making the method's effects rather mediocre.

At this moment, when Shi Shen saw his "junior sister," or rather, his "junior sister," a complex mix of emotions and regret inevitably appeared in his eyes.

Gong Qinghuang was originally no match for his "Junior Sister," but with his help, she lost the Dao competition and disappeared. However, he did not expect that even though his "Junior Sister" lost the Dao competition, she still survived and seemed to have returned to the realm of near-immortal.

Then, the corrosive entity became curious about the strange aspect revealed by his "Self-Future Vision Sutra": "Gong Qinghuang encountered something evil, what is that?"

Judging from the way the text is displayed, this strange thing seems to be something that even Gong Qinghuang can't do anything about!

……

The first city in the land of the dead.

The city's strength has now reached its peak. Previously, if we don't count Ling Jia, the number one cultivator, there wasn't even a single cultivator at the third stage of the Immortal Path. But now, there are three cultivators at the fourth stage of the Immortal Path and one at the third stage.

These were naturally the four Ten Palace Masters who had fled from the Yao Heaven Realm to escape the calamity.

At this moment, the four of them were preaching together to enhance the strength of the First City. Although the methods they practiced were very different from those of the Underworld, the system was similar, so they could understand each other by analogy.

Suddenly, a petite figure appeared.

In an instant, all the people from the underworld who had come to hear the sermon in the city knelt down.

Because this is the first Ling Jia!

"What's wrong?" Zhang San asked curiously, because the little girl's face looked tense at the moment.

"I think I'm going into labor..." Ling Jia said, a little uncertain and confused, because she didn't know what was happening, but that was the feeling. She felt like something was about to be born from her body, but it didn't succeed because she had to push it back in several times.

"Are you about to give birth?" Zhang San looked as if he had seen a ghost, and the other three True Immortals, who were in a realm beyond the mortal world, were also greatly shocked.

After all, this is quite shocking!
"Yes!" Ling Jia nodded, because after thinking about it, she decided to give birth and not force the baby back this time.

So, when Ling Jia stopped trying to stop her, she saw a long, slender hand emerge from the shadows behind her and hand her a note.

On the note was written a line of words: "Gong Qinghuang has returned to this world and is now in the Yao Tian Realm."
