Immortality and cultivation begin with drawing talismans.

Chapter 486 Ascension Contract Under the Moon [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

half year later.

Inside an inconspicuous mountain range, the interior had been breached at some point, drawing out the subterranean fire below.

The surrounding barrier and light screen showed no change whatsoever, but outside the cave, the transformed great demon, the Azure Ox, was solemnly on guard around the surroundings.

Inside the cave behind, amidst the flickering firelight, terrifying heat waves emanated one after another, causing the stones on the ground to turn red and crack.

Inside the cave.

"Master, this demon has finally been refined."

The phoenix lay limp and exhausted to one side. After six months of high-intensity refining, it would be a lie to say it wasn't tired.

At this moment, Lin Chang'an's eyes were closed, and a wisp of his remaining divine soul was absorbed by the Xuan Tian Immortal Vine.

It wasn't that he didn't want to devour the demon sealed inside the golden bowl, but rather that he feared he wouldn't be able to withstand it once it was unsealed.

Only when he had been completely refined and reduced to a mere wisp of a soul did he seize the opportunity.

Under the devouring influence of the Xuan Tian Immortal Vine, fragmented memories of this demon surfaced in Lin Chang'an's sea of ​​consciousness.

There are very few memories of the upper realm, only some scattered ones, after all, it is the second part of the soul, not the original body.

At his peak, he possessed near-fifth-tier combat power. Now, after being sealed for many years, he managed to escape with half of his divine soul, which still possesses late-stage Nascent Soul combat power.

It split off from a Nascent Soul Demon Lord and then possessed the body of a Nascent Soul cultivator in this realm...

The various fragmented memories shocked Lin Chang'an, seemingly revealing only the tip of the iceberg of the great war ten thousand years ago.

"Search for the Mysterious Celestial Vine!"

Upon seeing the treasure that a powerful figure from the upper realm was pursuing, Lin Chang'an broke out in a cold sweat.

This opportunity is now part of his life and soul cultivation; if it were exposed, he doesn't believe he could withstand the investigation of the legendary Holy Ancestor of the Upper Realm.

“Ni Chang, Bing Jiao, and Yun Yao…”

Although his memory was incomplete, Lin Chang'an still obtained a lot of useful information.

"What is this, Yun Yao!?"

Upon learning of Yun Yao's predicament, Lin Chang'an was both amused and exasperated, deeming her a truly deserving choice for the title of "Child of Destiny."

"I thought the gap was getting closer, but it turns out it's widened quite a bit this time."

From the moment their spiritual roots were detected, there was a gap between them. But after so many years, they finally achieved Nascent Soul, and the gap had been narrowed.

In the blink of an eye, he was told that Yun Yao actually possessed the Taiyin Star Void Body, which was a top-tier spiritual body in the Upper Realm, and she directly became the Holy Maiden of the Demon Clan.

It seemed absurd, but Lin Chang'an knew that this was Yun Yao's opportunity.

In the world of cultivation, there are many cultivators who possess spiritual bodies or spiritual roots, but because they lack the right opportunities, they never know it until their death.

Some people discover the spirit of another person just before they are about to die of old age, and ultimately leave with regret.

Such things are not uncommon in the cultivation world. A certain mortal was already seventy years old when his descendants unexpectedly embarked on the path of immortality. When they returned to test the spiritual roots of their clan, the old man was found to have earth spiritual roots.

That's not all. The most tragic thing in the cultivation world is that many people possess spiritual bodies but cannot discover them. They either lack the corresponding cultivation methods or their spiritual bodies are so rare that they are almost unheard of, leaving them to remain unknown.

"It's because the spiritual energy in this world is too thin and backward, and too many traditions have been broken. To possess a spiritual body in the upper world is a great opportunity, and there are countless matching cultivation methods in the upper world."

There is no fairness in this world, just like the current cultivation world, viewed from the perspective of the upper realm.

The spiritual energy in this world is scarce, making cultivation much more difficult. Those who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage are all exceptional individuals, while those who can achieve the Divine Transformation stage are truly geniuses of their generation.

If this talent and will were placed in the upper realm, one could cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage and be considered to have the potential to become a deity.

Of course, this is only in theory.

"Unfortunately, the memories are too fragmented, and many secrets remain unknown."

Lin Chang'an sighed softly, then looked up at the golden bowl in the center of the formation.

Top-tier Buddhist treasures are highly coveted even by late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Golden Bowl": It possesses the power of suppression and sealing. The terrifying power of suppression is different from ordinary gravity and is aimed at the primordial spirit.

It can make cultivators feel immense pressure, causing their primordial spirit and magical power to become stagnant and unable to be mobilized, leaving them helplessly suppressed and sealed in the golden bowl.

Especially Buddhist treasures, which have a natural restraining effect on demons, ghosts, and demons.

"Congratulations, Master! You have obtained such a treasure at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. You will be invincible in this world in the future."

Just then, the woman in red appeared to the side with a fawning smile, offering her congratulations with clasped hands.

Lin Chang'an smiled irritably after reading it.

"And yet, it's invincible. Would I dare to take out such a precious treasure so easily? Unless I become a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator,"

"Hehe, Master, you're too modest. We've had quite a haul this time."

"The gains were substantial, but the losses were equally significant."

Upon careful consideration, it turned out that during this exploration of the secret realm, the magic weapon, the Vajra Pestle, was ultimately thrown out disguised as the golden bowl.

The magic weapon, the Fire Separation Sword, which we obtained from the Crimson Fire Monster in the Demon Beast Sea Abyss, was also destroyed.

In addition, the set of Five Elements array flags used to break the formation and the Four Symbols Black Tortoise array flag used to seal the golden bowl, two sets of fourth-order formations, are gone.

In addition, he consumed more than twenty fourth-tier talismans during the battle, a fortune that ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators simply do not possess.

“Master, you’ve made so much money this time. Just this top-grade ancient treasure, the Golden Bowl, or that Thunder Bamboo, are beyond the value of ordinary items.”

Seeing her master calculating the losses, the woman in red was speechless. What kind of time was this for her master to be worrying about such trivial matters?

However, Lin Chang'an just smiled irritably.

"Do you think I want this? Do you think these treasures can be exposed so easily? I have to support you all normally. You don't know the value of resources until you're in charge of the household."

Even so, Lin Chang'an couldn't hide the smirk on his face when he looked at the golden bowl in the center of the formation.

As the woman in red said, any one of these treasures would be enough to make up for all the losses.

“Master, there is also this demonic body. This is a near-fifth-tier demonic body. Whether it is refined into a puppet or a second clone, it is an unparalleled material.”

At this moment, a hideous, six-armed demon was lying on one side of the golden bowl.

This harvest includes top-tier ancient treasures: a Buddhist golden alms bowl, a ten-thousand-year-old golden thunder bamboo, and a near-fifth-tier demonic body.

The rest consisted of two Longevity Fruits, Taiyi Golden Essence Ganoderma, Water and Fire Ten Thousand Year Ganoderma, and several bottles of pills with significantly reduced medicinal properties.

"It's a pity that apart from this Thunder Bamboo, none of these spiritual plants are useful."

The woman in red carefully examined her haul and nodded in satisfaction.

However, Lin Chang'an was very satisfied. He had encountered such great danger this time, yet he had still gained so much. He was much luckier than others.

"But that old fellow Lu Zhenjun is really good at hiding his true intentions. Are you sure you didn't see wrong back then, Red Robe?"

At this moment, Lin Chang'an recalled the situation and couldn't help but ask again. The woman in red nodded firmly and said:

"Master, don't worry, I'm absolutely not mistaken. The golden scales that are emanating from that old man's body are the effect of taking Taiyi Golden Essence Mushroom."

The Taiyi Golden Essence Ganoderma, when ingested, can strengthen the body and cause a layer of golden scales to grow on the skin, making it difficult for ordinary magic weapons to harm.

"This Taiyi Golden Essence Ganoderma begins to mature gradually over six thousand years and reaches its peak at nine thousand years. Ordinary cultivators who consume it can directly achieve the third-level body refinement in one step."

As the woman in red chattered on, Lin Chang'an suddenly realized that he had been thinking that the old man was wasting time refining his body since he was so late in forming his Nascent Soul.

It turns out that this old fellow relied on external objects, such as the Heaven-Mending Pill from back then, and the family fortune passed down later, which seemed to have allowed him to guess quite a bit.

"Back in the Abyss Sea, the Nascent Soul cultivator Jin Kaishan was also said to have achieved the same result after completing his body refinement. It seems that both of them consumed this spiritual item back then."

Based on some limited information, Lin Chang'an deduced that Lu Zhenjun's opportunity was probably also the remnant cave of an ancient cultivator.

Otherwise, such a spiritual object could not exist.

"No wonder, one can reach the third level of body refinement in one step. Even without special training, with accumulated effort over six or seven hundred years, one can eventually reach the fourth level of body refinement."

For a lone cultivator to reach the Nascent Soul realm, everyone has their own opportunities, some greater, some lesser.

"And this Mysterious Heavenly Vine, it's true that quality is always more important than quantity."

After devouring the remnant soul of a fifth-tier Nascent Soul cultivator, the sixth piece also sprouted, bringing Lin Chang'an a big smile to his face. This time, he had truly reaped a bountiful harvest.

"Master, there are also the spiritual plants that Jin Feng and I picked before. Whether you are refining pills or exchanging them for resources, you will reap a great harvest in the future."

After the woman in red brought up the matter, the phoenix that had been choosing to forget about it suddenly widened its eyes and innocently took out its previous catch.

“Master, there’s also this part. This was a gift from the Gold-Eating Rat.”

The phoenix chirped and chirped, as if to say, "These are all things I've worked hard for."

Lin Chang'an smiled irritably at this, but this time was different from the past, as it was obtained at great risk.

"Don't worry, everyone will get a share this time."

Looking at these harvests, Lin Chang'an nodded with satisfaction.

These are all extremely rare and precious materials.

It can be said that we gained a lot.

"But this time it was really close. If we hadn't discovered it early, we might have been caught off guard."

Thinking back on this experience, Lin Chang'an secretly rejoiced. If the demon's true form had escaped, it would have been a near-fifth-tier Nascent Soul level demon. Just thinking about it made him shudder.

I'm afraid everyone will have to give an explanation.

"Red Robe, I remember you said that the Golden Thunder Bamboo could help Ling'er recover sooner?"

"Naturally, wood-attribute spiritual objects inherently possess powerful vitality, while Ling'er herself awakens a lightning-attribute talent due to her half-demon bloodline."

"As long as you, Master, are willing, you can refine this plant into juice to nourish Ling'er's body and soul. Not only will it help Ling'er recover sooner, but it might even awaken her true innate divine power."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chang'an nodded in agreement.

"Although the Golden Heavenly Thunder Bamboo is precious, it is still an inanimate object, at most it can be used to refine a magic weapon."

Lin Chang'an didn't hesitate at all about this choice; he knew exactly what was more important.

"Then congratulations in advance to the host."

While the woman in red excitedly offered her congratulations, a hint of unease lingered deep in her eyes.

What will happen to Ling'er once she recovers from her injuries?
Knowing so many of his master's secrets, even the Xuan Tian Immortal Vine knows them, how can his master feel at ease?
Just then, a flash of light appeared in the red-clothed woman's eyes, and her aura changed.

"Owner."

Upon hearing that familiar yet respectful voice, Lin Chang'an smiled.

"Ling'er, you're awake."

"Yes, Ling'er woke up earlier."

After the sword attendant woke up, he skillfully took out some spirit tea from his storage bag and brewed it.

“Master, the red-clothed sister’s soul is with me, so we share the same fate. Ling’er can even benefit from it. Moreover, Ling’er also wants to catch up with Master’s footsteps.”

Although the sword servant was talented, that was all he was capable of.

But with the red robe, things are different. It's as if Lin Chang'an possesses the Xuan Tian Immortal Vine, and the essence of the red robe is also the power of Xuan Tian.

Therefore, whether from an emotional or economic perspective, the sword attendant genuinely didn't want to be separated from the red-clothed woman. With the red-clothed woman, she had limitless possibilities.

"It's your own business, decide for yourself."

"Thank you, Master."

Just as Lin Chang'an was sipping his spiritual tea, a haughty voice suddenly came from within the sword servant's body.

"Then I'll just have to make do."

Clearly, the woman in red was also envious of Lin Chang'an's increasingly powerful Xuan Tian Immortal Vine, which could continuously nourish her soul and strengthen her.

"Alright, we've wasted half a year here this time, and the agreed-upon time is almost up."

Watching the red-clad figures playfully bickering, Lin Chang'an shook his head with a smile, but his gaze was fixed on the direction of the Seven Kingdoms, his eyes gleaming.

Previously, while inside the cave ruins, Fairy Ni Chang secretly communicated with him, and the two had already made an agreement.

……

In the Yue Kingdom, at the Xuanyin Pavilion.

In recent years, as the miasma has gradually receded, the spiritual energy of the seven kingdoms has become three times more concentrated than before.

The Yue Kingdom, in particular, which was once the richest in resources, was full of vitality.

The Xuan Yin Pavilion now dominates the Yue Kingdom, its strength is rapidly expanding, and there are already nine Core Formation cultivators within the sect.

After the snowstorm, everything is reborn.

On a mountain peak, a figure appeared out of nowhere, quietly gazing at the place where the path of cultivation had begun.

When I returned this time and saw my old homeland again, the mountains and rivers remained unchanged, but everything had changed.

My feelings changed again; all that remained here was a lingering memory of the scenery.

"The Yue Kingdom has indeed become more and more prosperous over the years."

Lin Chang'an quietly observed the changes in Yue Kingdom, a smile spreading across his eyes. No one doesn't want their homeland to improve.

Over the years, the Guardian Alliance has fought a great war against the Demonic Path, and the Seven Kingdoms, serving as a transit point between the Seven Kingdoms and the Abyss Sea, have benefited greatly from this conflict.

The trade and resources from the two major cultivation grounds passed through this area, bringing about earth-shattering changes.

【Lifespan: 403/2490】

[Realm Level: Early Nascent Soul Stage (62/100)]

He was 403 years old that year and returned to the Yue Kingdom, but no one knew about it.

As the spring breeze swept by, the figures on the mountain peaks vanished without a trace. In the distance, a market town, still bustling with activity, was filled with the sounds of cooking fires, where a group of low-level cultivators excitedly hawked their wares.

The increased availability of resources from the Protectorate Alliance and the Abyss Sea at the stalls undoubtedly accelerated the growth of the cultivators here.

……

Xuanyin Pavilion is a cave dwelling within the forbidden area.

As the barrier light screen rippled, Lin Chang'an slowly stepped into this familiar cave.

Inside the quiet cave, only the sound of stalactites dripping could be heard, as if there was no sign of life.

However, after giving a casual glance, Lin Chang'an slowly curled up the corners of his mouth and then walked to the stone table in the cave with ease.

There is still a piece he placed on the chessboard.

However, after glancing at it, he couldn't help but chuckle, and then he raised his hand and picked up the spiritual utensils for brewing tea.

Lin Chang'an slowly and methodically brewed the spiritual tea, and in a short while, the teapot was bubbling. After pouring himself a cup of spiritual tea, he began to pour a second cup.

A fragrant aroma of tea had already filled the air when a familiar soft sigh rang out.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, you seem to know this place better than I, the host, do."

His tone conveyed a sense of longing for someone he hadn't seen in years, along with a hint of teasing.

A jade-like hand appeared on the side without anyone noticing, and slowly picked up the spiritual tea he had brewed.

When Lin Chang'an looked up, he saw that the Fairy of Rainbow Robes, wearing a veil, had appeared opposite him at some point and was sitting with him.

"The Six Desires True Demon Art is indeed powerful. If I were not familiar with you, fellow Daoist, I'm afraid even an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator would not be able to detect it."

Seeing the figure appear, Lin Chang'an was not surprised; instead, he showed an expression of appreciation.

However, as soon as she picked up the teacup, the Fairy of Rainbow Skirt habitually blew on it gently, pursed her lips, and a familiar taste wafted over.

After more than a century apart, the two finally reunited.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, please don't waste my spiritual tea."

Despite this, Fairy Ni Chang still squinted her eyes, a hint of enjoyment on her face, and gently sipped the spiritual tea.

Although the tea ceremony was a bit lacking, I still miss the taste.

"Try Ni Chang's tea ceremony."

Immediately, Fairy Ni Chang brewed a pot of spiritual tea in front of him and personally poured it for him.

The two savored each other's spiritual tea, both revealing a hint of nostalgia.

The path of cultivation is long and arduous, and the formation of the Nascent Soul is a critical juncture of life and death. Although there have been some twists and turns along the way, the fact that the two can meet again is already better than that of countless others.

This familiar spirit tea, after a long absence, has acquired a unique and nostalgic flavor.

Perhaps this is the taste of time's sedimentation.

The two sat quietly, sipping tea. The Fairy of Rainbow Clothes squinted her eyes, and her worries dissipated. At this moment, she seemed to have returned to a carefree time.

Amidst the pristine white dress, a pair of dangling white boots suggested that the two had returned to the past.

Just as the two were immersed in this serene yet calming atmosphere, Lin Chang'an suddenly spoke, breaking the tranquility.

"Fellow Daoist Ni Chang, your handwriting in this letter is quite good."

As Lin Chang'an's teasing voice echoed, the Fairy of Rainbow Robes, who was sipping spirit tea behind her veil, blushed slightly.

She coughed lightly without making a sound, then picked up the letter next to the chess manual.

She wrote that letter because she felt the journey was dangerous and she probably wouldn't come back. She never expected that when they met again, the other person would use that letter to tease her.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, this is my cave dwelling."

The Fairy of Rainbow Robes also teased back, but when she casually opened the letter, her pupils suddenly contracted.

All that could be seen at the end was the signature "Ni Chang's Last Words," but the last two characters had long been erased.

At that moment, her eyes rippled, and wisps of mist rose, but they vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"Next game!"

Seemingly in an attempt to turn the tide, the once aloof and languid Fairy of Rainbow Robes suddenly felt a surge of competitive spirit, her beautiful eyes glaring behind her veil.

"Sure, but how about adding another bet this time?"

"What bet?"

"If Fellow Daoist Ni Chang loses, then remove this veil."

From the moment they met, the Fairy of Rainbow Robes wore this blue and white silk veil with jade bells, concealing her appearance.

"it is good."

The Fairy in Rainbow Robes responded softly, then looked at the black pieces left on the chessboard when Lin Chang'an first came here, and spoke again:

"However, this time I will take the black pieces, so please, fellow Daoist!"

The Fairy of Rainbow Robes had a calm gaze, as if she had been the one who had been blamed for the black mark in the first place.

Lin Chang'an was taken aback when he saw this, then smiled and picked up the white pieces to start placing them.

The two players placed their black and white pieces repeatedly, but this game was different from the previous ones, with a strong sense of determination to win or lose, as if neither of them wanted the game to end too soon.

After a long while, when the chessboard was filled with black and white pieces, both players stopped what they were doing.

Finally, Lin Chang'an spoke softly, "Fellow Daoist Ni Chang, it seems you are still not suited to playing the Black Pawn."

"There's no such thing as suitable or unsuitable."

Looking at Lin Chang'an, Fairy Ni Chang's eyes flickered. Finally, she raised her jade hand and slowly removed her veil, revealing her true face.

It has long, dark purple hair, eyes that gleam with purple light, and a pair of thin wings on its back.

Her originally aloof appearance now had a touch of witchy about her, a sight that made Fairy Ni Chang's eyes lower.

However, upon seeing this scene, a look of amazement flashed in Lin Chang'an's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile and tease:
"Fellow Daoist Ni Chang is as beautiful and charming as ever."

In the world of cultivation, female cultivators always care more about their appearance.

Seeing Lin Chang'an's heartfelt praise, Fairy Ni Chang's eyes flickered, but she ultimately suppressed her emotions, though the joy in her eyes was still hard to hide.

"What do you mean by beautiful or not? Ni Chang is a real witch now."

The Fairy of Rainbow Clothes smiled irritably, and then began to talk about her experiences and Yun Yao's situation.

"Back then, I was trapped deep within the Sealed Demon Abyss..."

Through Fairy Ni Chang's explanation, Lin Chang'an also learned about the dangers of the Sealed Demon Abyss and Yun Yao's specific information.

It turns out that Yun Yao was indeed attracted by demonic energy and unintentionally arrived at the Sealed Demon Abyss.

However, the ancient altar of the Demon Abyss, the lingering remnant of the Demon Realm's Holy Ancestor, and the Taiyin Star Ruins Body—these extraordinary encounters left Lin Chang'an in awe, revealing a look of shock.

Even after hearing more detailed accounts, he still felt that Yun Yao's experiences were too outrageous.

"Yun Yao has wanted to break free from the cage since she was a child, and wanted to fly out and enjoy the freedom of the world. She never expected that she would actually possess the Taiyin Star Void Body in this ethereal body."

It was as if, in the darkness, each sip and bite was a part of the whole.

Pursuing freedom from the heavens and earth, possessing a top-tier spatial spirit body.

Her pursuit has always been there.

"Yun Yao asked me to give this to you."

An ancient-looking token was taken from the waist of Fairy Ni Chang, and under Lin Chang'an's questioning gaze, Fairy Ni Chang began to explain.

"Once Yun Yao receives the Demonic Marrow Infusion and her cultivation reaches the fifth level, she will be guided to ascend by the Demon Realm's Holy Ancestor. This Great Teleportation Token is a prerequisite for teleportation between the two realms..."

Interdimensional teleportation, like in ancient times, requires first setting up an interdimensional teleportation array, and then teleportation can proceed once the orbit is successfully established.

However, only Nascent Soul cultivators can withstand this kind of interdimensional teleportation array, while late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators must hold this Great Teleportation Token to protect themselves.

"As for the orbital issue, there's no need to worry. Yun Yao's Taiyin Star Ruins Spirit Body is extremely sensitive to space and has already left its mark on this Great Teleportation Order."

As long as the ancient interdimensional teleportation array can be found, orbit determination can be completed.

When Fairy Ni Chang said this, there was a clear hint of bitterness in her voice. She had always thought that she had arrived first, but she never expected that she was the one who came later.

"Yun Yao will definitely ascend first, but it is too difficult to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage in this realm. After Yun Yao ascends to the Upper Realm, she will find a relatively safe place and secretly set up a teleportation array."

At this moment, Lin Chang'an silently looked at the token in his palm. Yun Yao knew that he would ascend ahead of schedule, and this was a plan for him.

"I never imagined that the girl who used to need my protection in everything would now be facing everything on her own."

Lin Chang'an sighed softly, feeling happy for Yun Yao's fortunate opportunity, as it was truly extraordinary.

"Only those in the late Nascent Soul stage can use this Great Teleportation Token to teleport?!"

"Yes, the spatial pressure during interdimensional teleportation is not only directed at the physical body, but also at the soul, so at least a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator can withstand it with this item."

At this point, Fairy Ni Chang took out another jade slip.

"This is a jade slip containing the interdimensional teleportation array, but many of the materials have been lost. There were quite a few teleportation arrays in this ancient world."

As long as you search, there will always be clues to follow. Moreover, Fellow Daoist Lin, a fourth-tier array master, can also collect the materials from these incomplete ancient teleportation arrays and eventually piece them together..."

In other words, he needs to find an ancient teleportation array. If it's complete, that's fine, but if it's incomplete, he'll need to rely on his own strength to complete it.

However, this difficulty is far lower than the severance of the path to becoming a deity and ascending to immortality.

Lin Chang'an was already very content. This opportunity, if known to the cultivation world, would be far more tempting than possessing a spiritual treasure.

It's likely that by then it won't just be Nascent Soul cultivators; those Deity Transformation old monsters who have disappeared and are rumored to be sleeping will probably also emerge and hunt him down after finding out.

The two then talked for a long time, and Lin Chang'an asked a lot of questions, such as Yun Yao's situation and experiences, asking about almost everything.

At the same time, Fairy Ni Chang was also envious. However, after coming out this time and seeing the development of Xuan Yin Pavilion, she knew that Lin Chang'an was supporting her from behind, and she was very grateful.

"Xuanying Pavilion has gone far enough. How far it can go next depends on itself."

The Fairy of Rainbow Robes had a calm gaze. Although she was reluctant to part with it, her identity was different now, and she could not reveal it.

She would ascend to heaven with Yun Yao sooner or later, and the current development of Xuan Yin Pavilion had already exceeded her expectations.

She once gave everything for the sect, and now it's time for her to walk her own path.

"By the way, after we escaped that day, where did that three-eyed monster go? What happened to the others?"

Finally, Lin Chang'an asked out of curiosity. After all, the situation was urgent, and the righteous Nascent Soul cultivators had already noticed something was wrong, so he naturally had to flee in a hurry.

However, during his escape, he also sent a telepathic message to Senior Sister Bingdie, informing her of his safety.

However, whenever that day was mentioned, Fairy Ni Chang couldn't help but reveal a gloating smile.

"That three-eyed demon lord is not one of us, but he is really unlucky. His divided soul body is gone, and he has even alarmed a Nascent Soul stage cultivator from the righteous path."

A major battle left it severely weakened, and it's currently hiding in the shadows to heal. Previously, it had harbored ambitions to devour the original body.

When this person was mentioned, Fairy Ni Chang couldn't help but giggle. It seems that even after cultivating for hundreds of years, she still gets excited when she sees someone suffer.

"As for the others, Fellow Daoist Lin, you were the fastest to escape. I was thinking that if you had escaped slower, I would have chased after you."

Who would have thought you'd disappear in a flash? The others weren't slow either, except for that old demon Qingyang, who seemed to have been attacked by three Nascent Soul cultivators from the righteous path. I heard he was seriously injured before he fled..."

Hearing the fairy's teasing, Lin Chang'an also revealed a gloating smile.

If he didn't need to refine this golden bowl demon first, he wouldn't mind taking advantage of the situation, since he had a grudge against this Xuan Yin Old Demon.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Lin, you should catch up with your Yun Yao tonight."

After taking one last look at the sky outside, Fairy Ni Chang couldn't help but reveal a meaningful smile.

"night?"

Under Lin Chang'an's puzzled gaze, and with the teasing explanation from Fairy Ni Chang, he finally understood.

Although Yun Yao did not come out, she left a trace of her soul imprint in Fairy Ni Chang's body. At that time, she was extremely weak in order to avoid being discovered.

However, the spirit initiation needs to be completed at night, when the power of Yin is at its strongest.

"Nighttime, Taiyin Star Ruins, Spirit Descent!"

After connecting all these things, Lin Chang'an suddenly seemed to realize something.

……

As night gradually fell, the night sky over Yue Kingdom seemed even brighter than before, thanks to the increased spiritual energy.

Under the bright moonlight, outside the cave in the forbidden area of ​​Xuan Yin Pavilion, the appearance of Fairy Ni Chang slowly changed, finally revealing Yun Yao's figure.

When they met again, Yun Yao's eyes flickered as she looked at the long-lost figure, displaying the composure of a Nascent Soul cultivator and the air of a superior.

Lin Chang'an also saw Yun Yao now, wearing a crown, with an even more noble temperament, like a saintly maiden who did not belong to this world.

"Brother Lin!"

"Yun Yao!"

After exchanging a glance, the two smiled. No matter how things changed, the other person was still the one in their hearts.

The two embraced under the moonlight, neither speaking, simply enjoying the warmth of the moonlight.

half an hour.

"Brother Lin, I've found the path to ascension. You must never reveal your secret. Once we ascend, with your potential, we might just be able to secure a place for ourselves in the Upper Realm..."

Despite her feelings, Yun Yao also had her own ambitions, excitedly talking about her plans.

She has a steadfast character and is committed to the ideal of standing shoulder to shoulder with her beloved, rather than seeking someone to rely on.

"This world is too small. A Nascent Soul cultivator only has a lifespan of a thousand years, and what about a Deity Transformation cultivator? Only ascension can grant us endless years..."

Watching Yun Yao excitedly recount her dreams and aspirations, just like when she was a child, Lin Chang'an smiled and nodded, but the more he listened, the more strange he felt.

How can this girl still be so bold?

Back in Li Huo Palace, he faked his death to escape and even stole Zhenbao Tower.

Later, within the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect, they intercepted the Xuan Yin Divine Fire and the Ice Lotus Cold Flame, their audacity only growing.

Looking at that exquisite face under the moonlight, which showed no defenses against him, Lin Chang'an also smiled broadly.

He knew that whether it was his possession of the Xuan Tian Immortal Vine, Yun Yao's Taiyin Star Ruins Spirit Body, or his current identity as the Holy Maiden of the Demon Realm.

Both of them need to continuously improve their abilities before they can truly be together.

"It's still early, so be careful. I obtained some information about the upper realm from that demonic body earlier..."

The two leaned against each other on the cliff outside the cave, looking at the starry sky, sharing their feelings and plans.

To outsiders, even demons, this cold saintess was now sitting on the edge of a cliff, her long legs swinging merrily.

"Brother Lin, I'll be waiting for you."

"Ah."

Meanwhile, in the Sealed Demon Abyss, Yun Yao, in the center of the altar, closed her eyes to cultivate, a sweet smile slowly curving her lips.

She has already found her freedom, but she is not strong enough yet. When she is strong enough, no one will be able to stop her.
