Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

call!

Wang Quan exhaled a breath of stale air, completely relaxing: "I thought you were very capable."

"I never imagined... that you were just a reflection."

Di Xin raised an eyebrow, her ethereal voice tinged with anger: "Just a reflection?"

"Heh, there are countless reflections in the world, but how many of them actually come to life?"

Wang Quan thought for a moment and said, "In my life, you are the first one."

"There is no record of this in the Taoist scriptures I have studied."

"So, you're quite impressive!"

The emperor was pleased with himself: "Of course!"

Wang Quan asked curiously, "Tell me, how did you become a reflection?"

Emperor Xin remained silent for a moment: "That day, my true self's heart was traveling through the underworld. When it passed a pool of water, it saw a rather exquisite reflection."

"Therefore, my heart paused, and I felt a pang of self-pity."

"And so, I was born!"

Royal power...

"That sounds incredible."

The Emperor sighed, "Even I found it unbelievable when I said it!"

Wang Quan laughed: "You make all the ghosts and monsters worship the idol, is it because you want it to truly exist?"

The Emperor's Heart, Empty and Clear: "I don't know!"

"When I woke up, I felt that all living beings should worship me!"

Wang Quan opened his mouth as if to say something, but the token at his waist trembled again in the next instant.

He checked the information and then said, "My friends also encountered someone named Di Xin in another house."

"It says it is a reflection in the fire."

The Emperor sighed and said, "My true self has two sides, one ghost and one god. I am the ghost, and it is the god. This is normal."

Wang Quan's heart stirred: "Should I help you merge?"

The self-proclaimed ghost, Di Xin, shook his head: "No need."

"Our cultivation levels are too weak to merge now; we'll be able to merge when we become stronger."

Wang Quan smiled: "Then, should I send you before the Soft-haired Ghost God?"

Emperor Xin exclaimed excitedly, "Great!"

"It wants to eat me, but I want to eat it even more!"

"Heh... You don't even have the 'Emperor' title on your hat, yet you dare to jump out and act arrogantly?"

"Today, I will let it know what the evils of society are."

The next instant, the Emperor's Heart vanished.

Then, Wang Quan saw a heart that appeared and disappeared intermittently lying on a small statue.

This statue is exactly as the Gentle Spirit described.

Upon seeing it, an idea arose in his mind: to obtain the statue.

If you get this statue, you can get everything you want.

By obtaining the statue, one can become a high-ranking deity.

Wang Quan curled his lip: "Ghosts and gods? I can easily destroy many ghosts and gods by summoning a celestial patrol treasure."

"The spirits... are too weak."

He waved his sleeve, rolled up the ghost statue, then soared into the air and landed outside to join Ruo Jinghong and the others.

Ruo Jinghong and the others finished tidying up the rituals and then returned together to the No. 95 mansion.

Not long after they returned, Ma Qingqiu and the others also returned.

The people who returned all had sunken eyes and dark circles under their eyes, and both men and women walked with a limp.

They only brought back the special statue; they didn't bring back another [Imperial Heart].

Wang Quan asked curiously, "How did you all end up like this?"

Ma Qingqiu chuckled awkwardly: "The hostess I know is quite enthusiastic."

"So, the 'Imperial Heart' in her mansion is also quite passionate!"

"And then...you know!"

Wang Quan was bewildered: "I'm a very simple person, and there are many things I don't understand."

As he spoke, he glanced at Meiniang standing to the side.

Mei Niang clutched her waist, gritting her teeth: "That 'Emperor's Heart' calls himself 'God Emperor's Heart'."

"It's not actually a god, it's just a demon, a great lecher."

The other Daoist cultivators coughed: "Fellow Daoist Meiniang, please don't say that."

"Sister [Divine Emperor's Heart] also knows [Yu Meiren]; when we cultivate together, our wisdom increases greatly, and the efficiency is very high."

"Didn't we agree to go again in the future?"

Mei Niang looked at everyone, on the verge of tears: "But, after all, it's not human!"

Many Daoist cultivators laughed: "Does being human really matter? As long as it enhances wisdom, that's enough!"

Mei Niang was furious: "But... you all make it the center of attention, leaving me to blend into the crowd. I'm not willing to accept that."

The Daoist practitioners comforted him, saying, "If it can increase wisdom, just study the Daoist scriptures."

"Besides, Sister [God Emperor's Heart] is stronger than you."

Mei Niang opened her mouth and burst into tears.

Wang Quan gave Ma Qingqiu and Ruo Jinghong a look, signaling them to comfort her.

Then, he took the [Ghost Emperor's Heart] and the two statues and landed in a quiet courtyard.

He lit incense and silently recited the names of the gods and spirits.

Not long after, a dark road descended from the sky.

Wang Quan stepped into it, and the next moment, time and space shifted, and he appeared in a familiar yet unfamiliar room.

The room felt familiar because it remained simple and unpretentious.

An old man sat on the ground.

There was no furniture, not even an incense burner.

The reason for the unfamiliarity is:

The room was riddled with cracks.

Cracks appeared on the walls, floors, ceilings, doors, and windows, cracks fueled by flames, ice, poison, curses, and hurricanes.

Even the soft-haired ghosts and gods had many cracks.

These cracks spew forth streams of earth fire, feng shui, and other powerful energy.

When Rouhao Ghost God saw Wang Quan approaching, the corners of his mouth turned up in a slight smile. Just as he was about to say something, his head suddenly spewed fire and split in two.

He quickly pressed his hand to his head: "Fellow Daoist...welcome...!"

Wang Quan coughed, his Daoist robe fluttering, and released two statues of Western Ghost Emperors/Western God Emperors: "Fellow Daoist Rouhao, I've retrieved the item!"

Glug!

The Soft-Blooded Demon swallowed a mouthful of lightning and fire, its eyes gleaming with excitement: "You're truly remarkable!"

"I thought you'd have to wait hundreds, even thousands of years for news!"

"I didn't expect to find it so quickly."

"And you found two at once!"

Suck!

The gentle spirit stuck out its tongue and swept away the drool from the corner of its mouth.

"I suddenly feel that the manor I gave you is simply not enough to repay your kindness in finding the statue."

"What should we do?"

Wang Quan laughed heartily: "It's nothing!"

"If you can't repay the debt, then don't repay it!"

"I don't need it!"

The Soft-Haired Ghost God shook his head: "No!"

"I've always believed in repaying even the smallest kindness with the greatest gratitude!"

Wang Quan nodded: "Hmm... this time can be an exception!"

The gentle spirit sighed, "If this time is an exception, other beings will think I am untrustworthy, will look down on my kindness, and will not even take me seriously."

"What should we do?"

Wang Quan noticed Rouhao Guishen's ulterior motives.

He sneered, "If you like repaying kindness, you can give me a few more houses; if you don't want to give me extra houses, I won't care."

"Alright, open the passage and send me away!"

The ghostly figure with the soft hair gleamed: "If you leave, how can I repay your kindness?"

"But I have no way to repay your great kindness!"

Wang Quan sneered, "Then... if you kill your benefactor, you don't need to repay his kindness!"

A fierce glint flashed in Rouhao's ghostly eyes, but she feigned shyness, saying, "How could I possibly accept this?"
