Perfect Double Agent

Witch: "..."

However, her eyes darted around, and she looked up at the sky. "Junior brother, why don't we go up there and give it a try?"

Bai Ye looked up and glanced at the boundless thunderclouds. After a long while, he took out a golden bead. "With the Immortal Monk's bone and your stone bead, and by activating the Heaven-Severing Technique, you should be able to comprehend it."

"You're not really close to reaching the pinnacle of Divine Fire, are you?" The witch suddenly felt a pang of panic. "I'm going to die... What will happen to my junior brother...?"

"Bah! My junior brother is dying! What am I going to do?!"

"You jinx! If I ever get struck by lightning and die, I'll haunt you even if I turn to ashes!"

"oops……"

With a loud bang and a cry of pain, the witch was sent flying into the sky. She could be vaguely seen still opening her red lips, muttering something to herself.

Bai Ye believed that his senior sister could comprehend that thunder magic technique. The Immortal Monk Bead and the Bodhi Seed were somewhat similar, allowing one to comprehend extraordinary things. The Soul-Suppressing Bead was even more mysterious, perhaps containing a spirit. Putting the two beads together, combined with the Heaven-Severing Technique, would be enough for the witch to seize many opportunities.

……

……

Meanwhile, in a forest in the no-man's-land, a figure in white couldn't help but mutter, "Strange, that guy can really run. Anyone who didn't know better would think I was searching for my husband for thousands of miles, relentlessly."

I really don't understand how he survived in the no-man's land with his meager cultivation level. How come he didn't just step in some bloody mud or run into a broken spear...?

The white-clad figure exuded an ethereal aura, holding a hazy, illusory bell in his left hand and a soul lamp in his right. His figure was peerless and his beauty transcendent, yet the words he uttered were curses.

"What is that little bastard who got struck by lightning trying to do? He's almost at the Imperial Pass, wait, he's stopped..."

"The great mystery of the future, you little fox of today, just you wait, when I arrive, I'll smash your head in half."

The white-clad figure moved with astonishing speed. Holding a small bell, she gently swung it, and time seemed to flow by. Hundreds of thousands of miles passed beneath her feet in an instant. It was a very strange scene, like a fairy descending to earth, walking in a no-man's-land, excessively transcendent.

Two days passed in a row.

Bai Ye remained seated in the courtyard, meditating and waiting for the appearance of the Immortal Abode. However, in the past two days, many young people with old servants had appeared in the city. Some of them had returned from the no-man's land and were descendants of the city's original inhabitants, while others, like him, were outsiders.

"Is it not over yet... Could something have gone wrong?" The old man in the gray robe came again, standing outside the courtyard, constantly examining the hazy array.

"Is there any particular custom?" Bai Ye slowly opened his eyes and asked.

"No, it's just a matter of repairing the body first, then using the prepared medicine to enhance its vitality and activity, and finally integrating the primordial spirit. If there is no rejection, it should be successful very quickly."

But as soon as the old man finished speaking, a crack appeared in the great formation in that area, and a one-eyed old man covered in sweat walked out. It was clear that his already hunched back had become even more stooped, as if he were carrying an unimaginable mountain on his back.

"Do me a favor. Whether it works or not, I'll accompany you to the Immortal Abode tomorrow."

The old blind man arrived, seemingly without any time to explain, and grabbed Bai Ye, flying him into the great formation.

"Senior, I don't understand this kind of thing either." Bai Ye looked puzzled. He was just a divine fire, and he couldn't defy the heavens.

"The fusion went relatively smoothly, but an accident occurred at the last moment. The immortal energy is unstable. If it collapses, it will destroy everything. The child's primordial spirit is very fragile and cannot withstand any more damage. This may be her last chance. Please help me..."

The old blind man's single eye shone with divine light, exuding an unprecedented solemnity. Even when gripping Bai Ye's shoulder, he unconsciously tightened his grip. "My judgment is never wrong. You must have cultivated immortal energy as well, and you should be able to stabilize it."

"I'll give it a try." Bai Ye sighed softly. Although he wasn't very familiar with the old blind man, they were just acquaintances, but once inside the formation, seeing the figure writhing in pain in the misty pool, he didn't refuse.

Chapter 236 My home has been raided again!

The pool was over three zhang in length, and it seemed to be a mixture of various precious medicines and divine liquids. Its powerful vitality and divinity were enough to revive the dead, heal flesh and bones, and even bring the dead back to life.

Inside, a young woman's brows were constantly furrowed, her pearly teeth biting her red lips, and her two long legs were constantly appearing and disappearing in the pool, only her vital parts were covered by armor.

However, at this moment, the four old men by the pool were all frowning. For them, this was not only their first attempt, but also a testament to their hard work. No one knew whether their descendants would use this method in the future.

"How do we do it?" Bai Ye frowned as he looked at the woman in the pool.

“If we had cultivated immortal energy, we wouldn’t be at this level now. You can try using your immortal energy to suppress the immortal energy on her body and compress it into your body, or you can see for yourself.”

The four old men looked at each other, completely bewildered. They guessed that Bai Ye had come as a last resort.

"I'll try my best..."

Bai Ye wasn't sure either, so he stepped into the pool. On his palm, a strange aura of immortal energy appeared. This aura was very strange, as if it carried the power of reincarnation. As soon as it appeared, it calmed the woman in the pool down.

But the next moment, a soft, snow-white, hot body pounced on him, wrapping around his body like an octopus.

This sudden turn of events left Bai Ye completely bewildered, while the four old men remained calm, with one even exclaiming, "It seems to be working..."

"Young friend, place your hand on her lower abdomen and compress the scattered immortal energy there," an old man said.

"No, the immortal energy should be between the eyebrows; that's where the potential lies..."

"It should be in the heart. I've heard that one begins cultivating immortal energy from there."

A group of old men were arguing heatedly on the shore, their faces flushed, and they were so excited that they almost came to blows, but in reality, they knew nothing!

On the contrary, Bai Ye was tightly entangled, her face rubbing against his chest incessantly, the burning heat of her breath and the frighteningly high temperature of her body, which seemed to be ignited by divine power.

He took a deep breath, sank into the pool, and placed his palm on the woman's back. The smooth touch would probably make anyone else's mind wander.

But at that moment, he also sensed the surging immortal energy within the woman's body. It had transformed into dozens of streams, constantly rampaging and destroying the life force within her body, like the blazing flames of the sun.

"No, there's another power... another wisp of immortal energy?" Bai Ye exclaimed in surprise. At the woman's brow, there was a wisp of yin energy, like a blurry stream of water, wrapped around a small figure with a face full of pain, preventing it from being damaged.

However, it was precisely this clash with the scattered immortal energy of the physical body that led to the origin of the chaos.

"What kind of precious seed did your granddaughter fuse with when she ignited the divine fire?" Bai Ye asked quickly.

"It's not a precious seed, it's a kind of Yin essence. That's all I found back then." The old blind man looked very nervous. "Has something gone wrong?"

Bai Ye nodded, and a wisp of immortal energy appeared on his left hand. At the same time, an incredibly ethereal and hazy wisp of immortal energy appeared between his brows.

This one was so thick and powerful, it seemed to have transcended the limits of immortal energy. At its top, a blurry little figure appeared, sitting cross-legged in a flower of the Great Dao, his hands forming hand seals on their own, constantly changing his gestures, which was so eerie that it made one's scalp tingle.

“Three strands of immortal energy… Old blind man, where did you bring this monster back from? Is this perhaps the current direct descendant of a family of immortals…”

"Shut up, all of you!" the old blind man whispered, not daring to speak loudly for fear of startling the people in the pool.

However, the appearance of the three streams of immortal energy instantly calmed the woman hanging on him, and even the violent power within her body was absolutely suppressed.

The scattered immortal energy, which had already broken into dozens of strands, began to slowly converge under Bai Ye's compression. Originally, these strands originated from the physical body. Although they had broken apart, they came from the same source and did not repel each other. Instead, they showed signs of re-condensing.

This is undoubtedly a good start.

"This woman may have fused with something like the essence of the sun in her previous life, rather than using the precious fire to ignite herself. The old blind man's granddaughter fused with the essence of the moon. Because the two clashed, the current phenomenon occurred," Bai Ye quickly analyzed.

At the same time, it felt incredible that there were people who had combined these things; there were such people among the ancient oddities of the Three Thousand Provinces.

However, if the old blind man's granddaughter is able to achieve a harmonious balance of yin and yang, her future achievements may be extraordinary, and even the aftereffects of the soul transfer can be disregarded.

The blurry stream of water between his brows was drawn out, and at its center, a stream of celestial energy flowed like water into his lower abdomen, making that area extremely cold.

Meanwhile, the intense yang energy on the other side, driven and compressed by him, had calmed down, regrouped, and obediently stayed in the woman's abdomen.

The most important thing now is to achieve a balance between the two; otherwise, this woman won't live much longer.

As for how to do it, he had no method and could only choose to try. Since ancient times, the Yin and the Yang have been two powerful sources, known as the origin of heaven and earth and all things. Whether in the current chaotic ancient times or in the era of Shrouding the Sky, they have played an extraordinary role.

Tai Chi?

Contemplating in the white night is the best known method. Life and death, yin and yang, light and darkness—any two opposing fundamental forces can evolve in this way. Once the evolution is successful, a qualitative transformation will be achieved.

To him, this woman was like a lab rat, someone he could manipulate at will, and he took on the important task of research.

He was decisive. Under his control, the two streams of immortal energy, like two immortal dragons, began to rotate in his lower abdomen according to the shape of the Yin-Yang Dao. Their heads and tails intersected, and Yin and Yang were interconnected. Gradually, their violent movements subsided, and instead, they generated a source power that resembled the origin of chaos, which was extremely strange.

Even inside that area resembling a small yin-yang diagram, mysterious and ancient primordial runes were born, captivating Bai Ye's gaze and gradually drawing him into a state of fascination.

It was a long process, and as time passed, the four old men on the shore were anxiously pacing back and forth, looking longingly at the man and woman whose heads were only visible above the water.

"I hope there won't be any problems. It's been half a day, and it'll be dark soon..."

The old blind man frowned deeply, huddled together, but neither of the two men made a sound.

Another half day has passed, and the moonlight is past midnight, yet the pond remains still.

Just as the group was eagerly waiting, there was finally some movement from there.

The liquid in the pool began to rotate on its own, slowly transforming into yin and yang, like a tai chi symbol. The man and woman seemed to be two points on the two poles, striking and mysterious.

Even above their heads, a Tai Chi symbol was rising into the sky, where Yin and Yang converged, dragons and phoenixes danced, and life and death cycled... Accompanied by various extraordinary phenomena of the Great Dao, the entire pool echoed with the sound of ancient scriptures, mysterious and difficult to understand.

Gradually, the pool was completely shrouded in chaotic mist. Numerous strange phenomena filled the space, and if not for the protection of a great formation, they would have broken through the sky and alarmed the world.

Even so, thunder rumbled in the sky above Black Cloud City, the celestial might was terrifying and oppressive, causing all living beings in the city to look up. Those who were meditating in the thunderclouds were startled and fled as fast as they could.

Only one girl in a black dress slowly opened her eyes. She muttered, "The aura of the Heavenly Tribulation... It doesn't make sense. I only obtained a divine power. The Thunder Emperor shouldn't be so stingy, right?"

"Or is it that my monstrous junior brother is about to undergo tribulation?"

The witch got up, put away the two beads in her hands, and headed towards the thatched hut in the city. But to her surprise, she couldn't find her junior brother.

On the contrary, the old man in the gray robe was watching her with great interest.

"Senior, do you know where my junior brother went?" the witch asked.

"I don't know, maybe she's with the old blind man's granddaughter."

"Huh? My base has been raided again?"

This was the witch's first reaction. At the same time, her face began to darken. In the Three Thousand Provinces, Yuechan dared to steal from her home. In the Dream of Returning to the Immortal Ancient World, a pearl of a longevity family not only stole from her home but also openly flaunted it in front of her. She had only been gone for a little over two days, and now her junior brother had been stolen from her again.

It's like, "Everyone's here, whether human or ghost, but I'm the only one who's worried... Damn it, I'll sink you all!"

Chapter 237 The Birth of the Immortal Abode

The thunder rumbled loudly and was awe-inspiring. It remained hidden in the clouds for the entire second half of the night, only gradually subsiding at dawn, without actually falling.

Many people were unaware of what had happened, wondering why the thunderclouds, which hadn't been active for a long time, had suddenly become unusual at this time.

"Wasn't the last riot a hundred years ago?"

"Perhaps it's related to the immortal abode that will appear soon."

The creatures in the city were abuzz with discussion, but deep within the city lord's mansion, a dignified middle-aged man withdrew his gaze from the sky with a sinister expression.

No one knew what he was thinking, nor what he was going to do, but in front of him was a painting.

The young girl, Na'e, rode on the back of a celestial horse. As she looked back, her beautiful face blossomed with a childlike and joyful smile. In front of the celestial horse, a man in golden armor silently led the horse, also looking back. His gaze was deep and piercing, fixed on the girl's back. Although he was smiling, there was also a hint of bitterness in his smile.

Because the girl wasn't looking at him; as for who it was, it wasn't shown in the painting. It was just a picture of two people and a horse enjoying a spring outing.

The Divine Fire Realm is a watershed moment that largely determines one's future. However, the same applies to gods; at this realm, there is still a sliver of opportunity for transformation, and their foundation will not be weaker than those who achieve sublimation at the Divine Fire Realm.
