All Heavens: Simultaneously traversing the Primordial World and Shrouding the Heavens

Chapter 122 Guanyin Bodhisattva, Mortal Cultivator's Ascension to Immortality: The Precious Lotus Lantern

Ye Fan wanted to teach these two monsters, but he knew even better that these monsters were more chaotic than humans.

If these two monsters are not properly educated, they will make a terrible mistake, which is why nine years of compulsory education is so important.

Ye Fan took two fox demons to see Yang Jian, but the scene before him surprised him greatly, because Yang Jian and Yang Chan were giving the Black Emperor a massage, even though the Black Emperor's body was comparable to divine iron.

But as an animal, its muscles are still soft, and it feels very relaxing when pinched.

"Aww! That feels so good! I've decided, from now on you two will be my pets!"

Black Emperor moaned comfortably, then Ye Fan slapped him on the head.

Black King, who had been slapped on the head, angrily raised his head, his dog eyes filled with scrutiny and seriousness.

Upon seeing that it was Ye Fan, the Black Emperor bared his teeth without hesitation.

The fifth fox brother stood directly in front of Ye Fan, his expression tense, and said in a serious tone, "You dog demon, this is an immortal! Watch your words! Apologize to the immortal now!"

Then Fifth Brother turned around and said with a fawning smile, "Immortal, this dog demon is ignorant and needs to be taught a lesson."

Ye Fan's mouth was slightly open as he looked at his fifth brother in shock.

No way, bro, are you that strong?

Ye Fan himself felt he couldn't defeat the Black Emperor, but this fox was actually trying to intimidate him.

The problem is that the other side is an elephant; hasn't he kicked a hornet's nest?

Not only was Ye Fan surprised, but Yang Jian and Yang Chan, who were squatting to the side, also showed surprised expressions. Yang Chan whispered, "The Black Emperor just kicked the Great Golden Crow away. You'll get beaten to death if you say that."

Fifth Brother naturally heard it too, and his ears twitched.

While he was still wondering what the Great Golden Crow was, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his thigh.

The excruciating pain spread from his thigh to his entire body. When Fifth Brother looked down, he saw a ferocious dog biting his leg hard with its teeth.

The large dog's muscles bulged, making it as big as a calf, and its teeth were terrifying, like sharp daggers.

Surprisingly, the teeth didn't pierce his skin, but the problem was that each bite really hurt, and Fifth Brother let out a pig-like scream.

"Ah! You old dog, please let me go!"

The Black Emperor relented, then revealed a set of gleaming white teeth and said, "I've never seen such an arrogant fox in my entire life! How dare you call me a dog demon? I think you're tired of living!"

Black Emperor's claws rained down like raindrops, and Fifth Brother clutched his head, howling in agony.

The fox spirit pleaded urgently, "Lord Black Emperor, please let Fifth Brother go! Don't beat him anymore, he's going to die!"

Ye Fan casually grabbed the fox girl by the back of her collar and lifted her up, saying, "Don't worry about him. If Black Emperor wanted to kill him, he would have done it already."

"Black King, don't go too far. Do you have any way of finding a black dog nearby?"

As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his right hand. The Black Emperor had bitten his hand, and Ye Fan panicked.

"Let go! You damn dog, I'm talking about the other black dogs, not you."

Fifth Brother's face was covered in claw marks. Upon seeing this, he quickly ran behind Fox Sister to hide.

Now he's convinced that the big black dog is definitely a powerful demon. Before, when he saw that it hadn't taken human form, he thought it was some kind of minor monster.

As it turned out, they simply disdained to transform into human form, and Fifth Brother dared not speak, or even show his face in front of the Black Emperor.

After hearing Ye Fan's explanation, the Black Emperor finally released him. He snorted twice and looked at Ye Fan, saying, "You want me to find a dog? What use is that dog to you?"

Ye Fan rubbed his bitten arm. This dog bites don't break the skin, but it really hurts.

However, now is not the time to talk about these things with the Black Emperor. Ye Fan pointed to Yang Jian beside him and said, "The main thing is to find Yang Jian's dog."

Yang Jian pointed to himself and said, "My dog?"

He genuinely didn't know what kind of dog he had, and Ye Fan couldn't explain the origin of the Howling Celestial Dog, but he subconsciously felt that there was probably one nearby.

Anyway, there's no harm in looking for it.

Black King raised an eyebrow, then sniffed around and said, "There are indeed some dogs around, but you're looking for black ones. I don't have that kind of deductive ability. Go find them yourself."

Ye Fan thought about it and agreed that they shouldn't waste too much time on a dog, but Yang Jian didn't have the Howling Celestial Dog, so he felt something was missing. Could it be that the Black Emperor should become the Howling Celestial Dog?

Ye Fan reached out and drew a talisman in the air, which then shot straight into the sky and disappeared.

Just as everyone was wondering, Ye Fan closed his eyes.

The Tongtianlu (通天简) can communicate with heaven and earth, and its effects vary in different worlds.

Zhang Chulan's world uses the Tongtian Talisman, which can even summon thunder and lightning and strip enemies of their luck, but it only works in a small area within his own world.

The current mythological world doesn't seem to have a very sophisticated combat system, so I should be able to gain more information from it.

Where are Yang Jian's father and brothers?

Where is Yang Jian's celestial dog?

After posing these two questions, two orbs of light appeared in Ye Fan's Sea of ​​Bitterness. These orbs were formed by the Heavenly Talisman. The answers could be obtained by breaking the orbs.

Seeing this, Ye Fan understood that the Tongtian Talisman had officially connected with this world.

Without further hesitation, he directly used his sea of ​​consciousness to break through the two orbs of light, and two answers were about to emerge, and they were the same as what Ye Fan had thought.

The first question has only one location: the underworld.

The second question was interesting; they actually gave him a map, but it only flashed a few times before disappearing. Fortunately, Ye Fan memorized it.

The effects of this Heavenly Talisman are more powerful than I thought, but the answer is somewhat abstract and the information provided is incomplete.

After determining the location, Ye Fan reached out and summoned a celestial boat.

He then had everyone board the immortal ship first, as Ye Fan was going to the Western Paradise next.

Myths and legends based on Journey to the West generally involve three forces: Buddhism, Taoism, and the Heavenly Court.

In the current world, the Heavenly Court is the enemy, the Taoist sect stands on the side of the Heavenly Court, while the Buddhist sect is more likely to become an ally.

Ye Fan just didn't know whether this world was based on Journey to the West or Investiture of the Gods.

There are no saints in the Journey to the West world, let alone Hongjun.

The world of Investiture of the Gods does not have Buddha or Jade Emperor.

Regardless of the reason, there's no harm in going to the West to see what's going on.

The map that appeared earlier only showed the general direction, but flying in the sky made it easier for Ye Fan to pinpoint the location of the map.

With a sweep of his divine sense, Ye Fan indeed found a small black dog, which appeared to have been abandoned by its mother.

When the celestial boat landed, Ye Fan picked up the little black dog from the grass and handed it to Yang Jian. Yang Jian still didn't understand why he was being given a dog.

He looked at the adorable puppy in front of him, then at the Black Emperor beside him, and then asked in surprise, "Am I going to raise a son for the Black Emperor in the future?"

The Black King's mouth twitched, and he glared at Yang Jian speechlessly. "This emperor has no children!"

Yang Jian smiled awkwardly, then looked at the puppy in front of him. For some reason, he really thought it was cute and wanted to raise a puppy himself.

Yang Jian patted the little black dog's head and said, "From now on, I will be your master. As long as I have food to eat, I will never let you go hungry."

Seeing this, the Black Emperor's lips curled up slightly, then he snorted coldly, "Mere human pet."

This scene reminded the Black Emperor of something that happened hundreds of thousands of years ago, on that day, when that man also held him in the same way.

A dog with no special talents, accompanied by its owner, gradually rises to the top of the world.

Will this dog do the same?

Black King has high hopes for their future.

The celestial boat was very fast, and Ye Fan used the Tongtian Talisman to guide himself from time to time. Before long, the group arrived at a small island.

The island is covered with purple bamboo, and from time to time, you can see flashes of white light.

Seeing this, Ye Fan roughly knew he had found the right place.

Black King scratched at the bamboo around him with its claws, sensing that it was some good material, and was about to put some in its mouth.

Suddenly, I saw a woman dressed in a white monk's robe walking towards me with light steps. She was rather plump and always had a gentle smile on her face.

The other person's appearance is immediately appealing, and she seems like the kind of ordinary woman you see often.

Her face was slightly round, and she had a little tummy. Unlike the goddesses or fairies Ye Fan had seen, her figure seemed to have a kind of magic.

The woman in front of me gave off a simple and unassuming vibe.

Ye Fan clasped his hands together in a gesture of respect to the other person, and the others followed suit, clasping their hands together as well.

"Guanyin Bodhisattva, this is Yang Jian. You should know something about his background."

His mother was Yao Ji. The Jade Emperor believed that Yao Ji's child born in the mortal world was unforgivable, so he killed Yang Jian's father and brother.

But their souls haven't completely vanished. I hope the Bodhisattva can give us a way to reach the underworld and rescue them.

Guanyin said with some surprise, "I have not yet attained the position of Bodhisattva. My name is Cihang. I have already left the Chan Sect and am currently practicing under the Buddha's seat."

I am aware of what you have said, but I never expected that the Jade Emperor would be so unwilling to let Yao Ji and her family go.

Ye Fan quickly analyzed Guanyin's current state and concluded that she had not yet become a Bodhisattva and was called Cihang, which should be Cihang Daoren, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals.

But this is definitely not the complete world of Investiture of the Gods, because the worldview of Investiture of the Gods does not include the World Honored One, that is, Tathagata.

Moreover, Cihang only joined Buddhism after the Investiture of the Gods war ended, but judging from the current situation, she joined long ago.

Yang Jian and Yang Chan knelt down at the same time, and prayed in unison, "Please, Bodhisattva, help us rescue our father and elder brother!"

A look of pity appeared in Guanyin's eyes. She was still practicing Buddhism, though she was not the Guanyin of later generations who was known for her compassion and mercy in saving people from suffering.

But she was such a good person, wanting to save the world from the very beginning.

"I have a way to make your souls leave your bodies, but without great supernatural powers to protect you, you will not be able to rescue your families in the underworld."

Guanyin's words also stopped Ye Fan. Ye Fan was very self-aware. Before he had cultivated his Daoist skills, his soul was actually very fragile and relied entirely on the protection of the Green Lotus.

The problem is that the lotus is rooted in the body, so it's impossible to take it out and break through the underworld.

The same was true for the Black Emperor beside him. Although he was powerful, Ye Fan felt that his soul was not so easy to leave his body.

Yang Chan and Yang Jian are certainly not afraid, but their cultivation levels are practically nonexistent. If they were to actually go to the underworld, it would be a complete waste.

After much thought, Ye Fan said, "Could we ask Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to preserve their souls for a longer period of time?"

The Heavenly Court estimates it will take seven days to torture Yang Tianyou and Yang Jiao to death. Ye Fan has a seven-day cooldown period each time he travels through time, so that adds up to fourteen days.

He wants to bring some people over, but he has to wait fourteen days.

If we want to delay, we can only ask Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to intervene.

Guanyin clasped her hands together and said, "Amitabha, I will go to Mount Ling and have the Buddha issue a decree, which should be able to protect them for a while."

Whether based on personal feelings or Buddhist principles, helping Yang Jian is a good choice.

Even after Guanyin left, Yang Chan and Yang Jian were still very worried. However, they still needed to get them to cultivate, because only by becoming stronger could they change everything.

Yang Jian successfully opened the sea of ​​suffering, and Qinglian also took root in his sea of ​​suffering.

Then Yang Jian took out the white lotus seeds and gave them to Yang Chan, the two foxes, and the little black dog.

The other three didn't change much after eating the lotus seeds, but the little black dog seemed to have grown bigger and looked more mature after eating them.

Moreover, the dog's eyes sparkled with a lively light.

Seeing this, the Black Emperor exclaimed in surprise, "Lotus seeds can also enlighten ordinary animals."

Black King found the little black dog even more pleasing to the eye. "I've decided, from now on he'll be my little brother, and I'm going to give him a name."

Ye Fan rubbed the little black dog and said, "His name is Xiaotianquan, he has a name."

Black Emperor frowned and fell into deep thought.

For some reason, he felt that this Howling Celestial Dog was a bit more handsome than his own name; it must be his imagination!

Guanyin was not gone for long; she returned the next day.

The news that came was good.

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has already taken action, casting the souls of the two into the eighteenth level of hell. Although the punishments in hell torment the souls, they can ensure that they will not die for the time being."

However, you only have eighteen days. When you pass through the eighteenth level of hell, both of your souls will be reduced to ashes.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva also did his best, but the pressure from the Heavenly Court was immense, so he could only resort to a shortcut.

Tell the Heavenly Court that there is an even more torturous way to torture the soul: to be thrown into the eighteen levels of hell.

The Jade Emperor already hated Yang Tianyou to the core, and knowing that it would cause him even more pain, he naturally agreed.

Yang Chan and Yang Jian both burst into tears. Their father and elder brother were going to suffer, and they were powerless to do anything about it, but they still had hope.

Ye Fan turned to look at Yang Jian and said, "Guanyin has helped you so much, so you should give Guanyin a gift in return."

Ye Fan's words were practically a tacit indication, and Yang Jian quickly took out a white lotus seed, saying, "Please accept this, Bodhisattva."

Both Buddhism and Taoism value the lotus, and the white lotus is favored by both.

Guanyin also felt that this lotus seed would be of great use to her.

After receiving the lotus seed, it automatically merged into the body.

Guanyin looked at her body with some surprise.

This lotus seed has changed her body, but the changes are not yet visible.

However, once Yang Jian is familiar with the wonders of the lotus seeds, he can then tell Guanyin about them.

With only a week left before his return, Ye Fan focused his energy on teaching his disciples.

Yang Jian cultivated with exceptional diligence, and his strength improved the fastest. After opening the Sea of ​​Bitterness, with the help of Ye Fan's abundant resources, he quickly reached the Life Spring Realm.

However, building the divine bridge requires sufficient mental strength, which is a slow and gradual process.

The Black Emperor has been very busy lately, and he often chats with Guanyin whenever he has free time.

He even went to the Western Paradise, where he is said to have chatted with the Buddha for a while and they had a very pleasant conversation.

However, Black Emperor seemed very excited after returning.

"What's going on with this world? Amitabha Buddha actually exists? I almost thought I had met the Great Emperor."

Although the opponent is not a Great Emperor, their strength is at least at the level of a second-tier immortal, and possibly even higher.

Ye Fan asked in surprise, "You mean Amitabha Buddha was also a great emperor?"

"Yes, but I've only heard of it; it was someone from 300,000 years ago."

Black Emperor's words also made Ye Fan ponder, as there are also legends of Amitabha Buddha on Earth.

This is definitely not a coincidence, and the Jiang and Ji families also exist on Earth; they are also families from myths and legends.

However, these secrets will only be known when I return to Earth.

If the strongest fighting force in this world is only from the second installment of the game "Chinese Paladin 2"...

Ye Fan thought about it and realized he still couldn't beat them.

Moreover, if we really calculate based on the combat power in myths and legends, it might be more than just the power level in Chinese Paladin 2.

However, given this, Ye Fan was somewhat surprised by Yang Jian's growth rate.

According to the setting of Lotus Lantern, Yang Chuo would also cause havoc in the Heavenly Palace, and this was after he came of age.

The strongest beings in this world possess at least four levels of combat power. Yang Jian, who has reached four levels of combat power by adulthood, is indeed not to be underestimated.

Black King suddenly bit Ye Fan's clothes and tugged at them. This action puzzled Ye Fan. What was wrong now?

"This world is different from the world I live in. The cultivators in this world have an extremely long lifespan."

I asked many people and came to a general conclusion: the spiritual roots of this world are very special.

The peaches of immortality in Heaven can directly extend one's lifespan, with a minimum extension of a thousand years.

Many beings called immortals are incredibly weak, but they can live for tens of thousands of years, a lifespan comparable to that of an emperor.

Aren't you tempted by these things? Let's go steal some together.

Black Emperor's eyes narrowed, showing that he also longed for such a treasure.

"We'll talk about that after we storm the Heavenly Court. Before that, let's figure out what's going on in the Heavenly Court."

Ye Fan was naturally very tempted, although the effects of the peaches of immortality sounded a bit unreliable. The three-thousand-year-old peaches could only prolong life, with a lifespan of about a thousand years.

Those who live for six thousand years can ascend to heaven and live forever; those who live for nine thousand years can live as long as heaven and earth.

The Heavenly Court regularly holds a Peach Banquet, and Ye Fan is certain that this lifespan extension is not truly permanent; it must have some limitations.

But this increase in lifespan can be accumulated, which is incredibly powerful, considering that even in their own world, the lifespan of an emperor is only ten thousand years.

In this world, ancient demons that have lived for tens of thousands of years are not uncommon, and it is quite normal for immortals to live for tens of thousands of years.

The Black Emperor began to look forward to following Ye Fan in seizing the Heavenly Court, and he felt that since Ye Fan had always called himself the Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Court should rightfully be under Ye Fan's control.

However, the most important thing right now is to rescue Yang Jian's family.

What intrigued Black Emperor was how Ye Fan planned to rescue Yang Chuo's family.

When the time came, Ye Fan took the Black Emperor directly to Han Li's world, bringing Yang Jian and Yang Chan along with him.

Arriving in a new world, the Black Emperor was even more surprised.

The surrounding spatial fluctuations and spiritual energy made the Black Emperor feel as if he had run from a dry desert to a plain.

It turns out Ye Fan has traveled to more than one world. How many secrets does this guy still have?

Ye Fan was at the headquarters of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance at the moment. After returning, he immediately began to gather manpower to prepare for a rescue mission to the Immortal Realm.

This time, only Nascent Soul experts were allowed, so all the Nascent Soul experts from the seven sects, including all those from the demonic path, came.

Including several newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivators, the total number reached sixty.

This number is extremely terrifying, enough to sweep across the entire human realm, but it lacks experts at the Nascent Soul stage.

At this council meeting, Ye Fan dropped a bombshell: it was possible to travel to the Immortal Realm.

Many of you couldn't sit still any longer. The first to speak was Elder Linghu, because he had the best relationship with Ye Fan.

"A celestial realm where anyone who enters can become an immortal?"

"It's not that kind of world. You might call it the Immortal Realm because there are methods for achieving immortality in this world, the most basic of which is reincarnation."

Through countless reincarnations, it remains the original soul of Ziling. However, this world also has its own administrators, namely the Heavenly Court.

Reincarnation belongs to the underworld; to truly become an immortal, one needs to go to the Heavenly Court.

The Heavenly Court controls the Peach Tree of Immortality; eating a single peach can increase one's lifespan by a thousand years, and these effects can be stacked.

These words caused an uproar; they believed that cultivating immortality was for the purpose of achieving eternal life.

As for the immense power, it's merely a means to protect the method of achieving immortality.

So when they learned that the peaches from another world had such miraculous effects, they had only one thought: to steal the peaches!

All the Nascent Soul experts present were agitated and wanted to rush into another world.

"Don't rush. The power system in that world isn't very advanced, and the rules are different in different worlds. If you go to that world, it will be difficult for you to break through."

While the upper limit isn't necessarily locked, the difficulty is considerable, especially since these treasures are controlled by other forces, making it very difficult to obtain them.

Because this method of ascension is quite special, it's virtually impossible for you to return once you go. My advice is that only those whose lifespans are nearing their end and who have no hope of breaking through can go.

Ye Fan might be lying to them, but everyone still believes in him.

You've brought out your ancient herb, so what's wrong with taking them to a real little fairy realm?

That's right, in all your eyes it's a small fairy realm, although it can't compare to the great fairy realm.

But one can also achieve immortality through ugliness, except that one still has to fight a battle to get there, and the peaches won't just fall from the sky.

"You have only seven days to prepare. After seven days, I will leave with my servants."
