He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

Life is the greatest miracle in the world. The propagation of a race contains too many mysteries. The blood of ancestors flows in the bodies of descendants, and even fragments of their memories live in their flesh and blood, imprinted in the deepest genes.

Racial inheritance involves obtaining fragments of memories from one's own blood, and once one's bloodline awakens, one will also obtain many fragments of memories from within the body.

"From what you're saying, there are many religious sects on Earth? Tell me about the sects that emerged after the Mount Tai incident, and which sects still exist in our country. Does the legendary Penglai Island really exist?" Pang Bo asked several questions in succession.

The demon broke out in a cold sweat, trying his best to recall what happened ten years ago. That incident was quite significant, causing a great stir in both Eastern and Western sects. Even though he was just a small demon, he knew about what happened that day.

"Mount Tai was very lively after the appearance of the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin. Several duels between powerful beings occurred, and many Western experts descended and looted a batch of extremely important tools, including the cornerstone of the central altar inscribed with a mysterious heavenly book."

"Later, someone invited an old Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain who was said to have lived for one or two thousand years, and only then was half of the things unearthed from Mount Tai saved."

"Among the sects that still exist today, the human race has dozens of sects such as the Shangqing Sect, Lingbao Sect, Taiyi Sect, and Shenxiao Sect. The demon race mainly consists of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Main Line, the Tianlin Clan, the Zhuhuang Daoist Lineage, and the Four Great Demon God Lineages of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley. In the West, there is a group of missionaries and knights led by Jerusalem."

"As for Penglai, it probably exists, but no one from Penglai is seen in the world anymore. Anyway, for little demons like us, Penglai has become a legendary power."

Pang Bo listened quietly as the monkey demon recounted the situation of religious sects on Earth, secretly astonished.

Just from the number and background of these sects, he could sense the strength of Earth in ancient times, and how many powerful figures had emerged from it.

Meanwhile, Pang Bo's parents, sitting on the other side, were completely bewildered. They had no idea what the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons and the Great Supernatural Being were talking about.

Having spent half their lives as atheists, they found it difficult to change their views when they suddenly heard about gods and monsters.

Only after the monkey demon finished speaking did Pang Bo say, "You're very good. I've decided to let you go. Go back to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons and report to your three valley masters, and tell them not to bother my family anymore."

Then, Pang Bo thought for a moment and said, "Also, I might go to your Ten Thousand Demon Valley in a few days to see what level the sacred land of the demon race on Earth is at. Remember to tell your Valley Master all this."

The monkey demon nodded frantically, and after Pang Bo released his hold on him, the monkey demon quickly left.

Afterwards, Pang Bo told his parents about his experiences over the years. Only then did Pang Bo's parents realize that their son had indeed gone to Mount Tai and even followed the nine dragons into the starry sky, experiencing a bizarre and wonderful journey before returning to Earth.

Pang Bo's narration also showed them a world of cultivation. Similarly, Pang Bo also brought back many small gifts from Beidou, such as life-protecting amulets, bracelets, source materials, and elixirs.

That very day, he helped his parents sense the Wheel of Life. As long as his parents took the pills for a while longer to eliminate impurities from their bodies, it wouldn't be long before they could receive the first wisp of life essence from the Wheel of Life and break free from the sea of ​​suffering.

As a powerful being, it wouldn't be difficult for him to guide his parents onto the path of cultivation.

Even if his parents have little talent in cultivation and face many difficulties in breaking through their cultivation realms, as long as he is willing to spend a lot of resources, he can always extend their lives by two or three hundred years.

On this day, the thirteen people who returned to Earth all found their homes. Although some were happy and some were sad, they were ultimately back home.

coming.

On Mars, there lay more than a dozen bodies—their classmates, forever left on that desolate planet, with no chance of ever returning home.

The next day, some people who were close to the deceased classmates began to search for their families.

Even for Liu Yunzhi, Li Changqing, and Wang Yan, people went to find their families and secretly help them, even at the cost of shocking the world, in order to cure the critically ill.

Even Ye Fan, who didn't have a good relationship with them, did some things.

For example, secretly putting elixirs into their parents' food to strengthen their bones and cleanse their flesh, and then finding ways to change their living conditions.

On the third day, in City B, Ye Fan walked down the street, now dressed in a different outfit.

He cut his long hair, changed into modern clothes, and finally looked like he had integrated into this world.

Although he hadn't worn these clothes for many years and felt somewhat uncomfortable, feeling restricted and unsuitable for combat, he was incredibly relaxed, having let go of the grudges and affections of the Big Dipper and transcended that intense training life.

His mind was at peace, his spirit was highly focused, and his body and consciousness reached a state of unity with nature, as if he had undergone a baptism.

"It feels like a dream," Ye Fan murmured.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared before him, causing him to freeze in place.

She was a woman of captivating beauty, so familiar that she stirred Ye Fan's heart. It was Xu Qiong.

After graduating from university, his feelings for Li Xiaoman faded in less than a year. A year later, he met another woman, Xu Qiong, and they dated for two years.

If he hadn't been taken away by the Kowloon Coffin Puller, perhaps he would have ended up with Xu Qiong. However, their story ended before it even began.

The once cheerful and beautiful woman who loved to talk and laugh now seems like a completely different person. She has lost her beauty, and sadness is impossible to hide on her face.

He didn't know what Xu Qiong had gone through, but he knew it couldn't be anything good, which filled him with mixed feelings.

At the same time, Xu Qiong also saw him, her expression froze, and then she excitedly stepped forward, her voice trembling, and asked, "Ye Fan... is it really you?"

"It's me." Ye Fan nodded.

They then went to a quiet park, sat on a park bench, and both fell silent.

Finally, Ye Fan asked first, "What have you been through all these years?"

A sob rang out; it was Xu Qiong crying, tears dripping onto the ground.

"After you left, I didn't wait for you for long. We were friends for two years, and I only waited for two years. People have to live their lives, don't they?"

"Two years later, I got married. I thought I would live a peaceful life, but life is always full of disappointments. A few days ago, my husband gambled away all our assets, and now I have nothing left," Xu Qiong said bitterly.

Ye Fan felt a surge of anger and was about to speak when Xu Qiong continued, saying, "I'm divorced from him now, and at least I got my child back. She's a girl named Xu Ye, and she's only a little over a year old."

Ye Fan felt a tremor in his heart, and sighed deeply, feeling the impermanence of life and too much helplessness.

"I just wanted to go out for a walk today, but I didn't expect to run into you. Where have you been? Why are you only coming back now?" Xu Qiong sobbed with her head down, and Ye Fan couldn't see her expression.

However, Ye Fan felt a tightness in his chest. After a sigh, he said, "I went to a very far place. It was a journey measured in light-years, a length that even gazing at the stars couldn't comprehend. I spent a long time searching for my way back, and only by chance did I return to Earth."

They talked for a long time until it got dark before saying goodbye.

As he left, Ye Fan took out a cell phone, the latest model he had bought yesterday, and used it to save Xu Qiong's number.

When he returned home, the memories of the day kept replaying in his mind, making it impossible for him to calm down.

Even as dawn broke, he was still thinking about all the things he had learned in the past few days.

Suddenly, a golden bird flew in through the window and landed on his hand.

This is no ordinary bird, but one formed from magical power, so lifelike that it seems to be a real living creature.

Ye Fan got out of bed. He knew that this was a signal from the God Lord summoning them, indicating that the God Lord had returned from Kunlun.

Chapter 308 Leaving Earth

It was still that suburb, the place where they had first landed.

The group of people who returned to Earth reunited, but they had all changed a lot.

Many people were beaming with smiles. Their family and friends were all safe and sound. They had finally made up for the regret of not being able to be with their loved ones all these years, and were therefore very happy.

Others, however, were dejected, looking as if they had suffered a huge blow, and their expressions were often dazed. When these people returned to Earth, the news they received was like a bolt from the blue, and they all had complicated feelings.

Seeing the different expressions on these people's faces, Zhou Qing guessed that some of them probably didn't have good family circumstances, at least not as good as they had originally thought.

Each of them is capable of flying and escaping, and possesses supernatural powers. Especially on Earth, where cultivation is severely suppressed, they can all be considered rare and great cultivators.

Having acquired such immense power, they might have had the idea of ​​returning home in glory. Many would want to demonstrate their supernatural abilities to their families and tell them about the wondrous world they experienced during their disappearance.

But when they returned, they found no family members to welcome them, only rows of tombstones before them.

As the saying goes, "The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease; the child may wish to care for his parents, but they will no longer be there." For these people, this outcome is incredibly cruel.

Zhou Qing sighed inwardly. This kind of thing can only be soothed and accepted over time. He was afraid that some people would become depressed because of this and would never be able to get over it. In that case, his cultivation path might not be able to continue.

Once everyone had arrived, Zhou Qing spoke.

“I’ve already decided to leave Earth. If anyone wants to leave with me, I can take you back. If anyone can’t let go of this place, they can stay here.”

"I will leave an avatar on Earth to uncover the ancient secrets of this planet. Those who remain on Earth can contact my avatar if they wish to leave in the future, and I will have a way to bring them back to Beidou."

"Of course, you can also reach Beidou via the Hangu Pass road, but the journey is very dangerous. It is not recommended for those who have not mastered the Dao to take this route. Moreover, it takes a year to reach Beidou via that road."

"Now you have a choice: go back to Beidou now, or stay on Earth."

The group fell into thought, but soon one of them stood up and said, "I'll stay on Earth. Three days is far from enough for me. I want to spend more time with my parents."

After one person stood up first, one after another, people stood up and said they wanted to stay on Earth.

Zhou Qing remained calm. He also believed that three days was indeed too short, and he had never intended to bring them back to Beidou now.

However, to his surprise, someone actually stepped forward and said bitterly, "I'll go back to Beidou now. There's nothing left for me to miss on Earth. I might as well dedicate myself to the path of immortality from now on."

Zhou Qing was surprised, but didn't try to persuade him, simply giving a simple "hmm".

This person was Zhang Wenchang. Since that day, he had secretly watched his wife and children several times, but he dared not stand up and acknowledge them, only suffering in silence.

He helped the mother and child several times, secretly placing a few special little magical artifacts on their path so they could pick them up and take them home.

Those small magical artifacts are just pendants, bracelets, necklaces and other small items, but wearing them can nourish the body, help ordinary people maintain health, and prolong life.

Three days were not enough for him to get out of his inner turmoil. After doing all that, he decided not to disturb their lives anymore and had the idea of ​​returning to Beidou.

However, although Zhou Qing's reaction was indifferent, everyone else looked at Zhang Wenchang in surprise.

Ye Fan couldn't help but ask, "Wenchang, haven't you always thought of never stepping onto the path of immortality again, and wanting to stay by your wife and children's side forever?"

But Zhang Wenchang sighed and said, "Seeing that they are living well is enough for me."

Ye Fan still looked at him with disbelief. He couldn't understand how Zhang Wenchang had changed so much since he was in Beidou.

They didn't contact each other for three days because their old cell phones had long been broken, and now that they were back on Earth, they had no way to contact each other.

Seeing Zhang Wenchang like this, others couldn't help but wonder if he had encountered some misfortune that caused him to become so depressed.

So someone immediately stepped forward and asked, "Wenchang, what happened to you?"

Some girls looked at him with concern, wondering if they could help him in any way.

After all, these were some of their few remaining classmates, and having gone through various life-and-death ordeals together, their relationship was even closer.

Zhou Qing originally didn't want to speak, as it was their own business what choices they made. However, seeing how much Ye Fan and the others cared about Zhang Wenchang, he also felt that it wasn't good to let Zhang Wenchang return to Beidou in this state.

Spiritual practice requires a very strong mental state. If one's will is too weak or one is too anxious, one will encounter great danger during spiritual practice.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these geniuses seem to encounter no difficulties in their cultivation process and can easily overcome any realm. For millions of ordinary cultivators, even a small realm of cultivation is not easy.

In particular, once one's state of mind goes wrong, the risk of going into demonic possession increases significantly. Throughout history, there have been quite a few cultivators who have died from going into demonic possession.

Whether it was Qin Yao or the prodigies of the Light Clan and Winged Clan that Ye Fan subdued on the ancient road, it was all the same.

Given that Zhang Wenchang's current condition is indeed problematic and not suitable for cultivation, Zhou Qing spoke frankly.

“Your current state is not good. The probability of you going astray in your cultivation is too high. I suggest you calm down and think carefully about what you should do. Then tell me whether you want to insist on returning to Beidou.”

Zhang Wenchang was taken aback. He hadn't expected that even the patriarch would say that there was something wrong with his current state, but he really didn't know what to do for the time being.
