Book 6: Chapter 10: Bai Qiuran's Joy
Seeing the filaments inside the Qi in his body, Bai Qiuran originally thought were impurities that had invaded his Purple Palace. After all, the power of time manipulated by Heaven at this moment was indiscriminately oppressing his entire existence from inside and outside his body.
But after a slight scan with his Soul Awareness, Bai Qiuran realized that those golden filaments were nothing else but the True Qi, which was slowly condensed and born under the majestic pressure of the time wave urged by heaven.
Even under this pressure, Bai Qiuran’s True Qi was born as slowly as squeezing toothpaste, but after all, the True Qi has existed in his body!
Bai Qiuran couldn’t help but give up the resistance, spreading his hands and feet, letting Heaven control a wave of time that surpassed another round and smashed it on him.
The pressure from the giant wave became stronger and stronger, and blood started to appear on Bai Qiuran’s skin. But under the effect of the Creator’s Body-Forging Technique, these insignificant wounds healed in an instant.
Moreover, after it healed, the Creator’s Body-Forging Technique worked on its own, making his body tougher. After a few rounds of huge waves, this pressure could no longer cause him any harm.
And with the increase in the number of True Qi filaments in the body, Bai Qiuran’s breath also rose rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, after a few more rounds of attacks, for some reason, Heaven suddenly retreated. The translucent twisted object quickly disappeared, and the surrounding scenes gathered again like dust and sand, covering Bai Qiuran and Wise Immortal.
“Why did you leave?”
Bai Qiuran curled his lips in disappointment, and then lifted a filament of True Qi in his body, liberating Wise Immortal from the state of being imprisoned by time.
The difference between this filament of True Qi and his Qi was the same as the difference between the True Qi and Qi in the body of ordinary cultivators. It was a qualitative difference. Bai Qiuran just transported the True Qi to the palm of his hand and touched the Wise Immortal lightly, yet the turbulence of time and space that bound him was easily shattered.
“Huh? What happened?”
Wise Immortal’s thinking remained at the moment when Heaven appeared. After being lifted from the imprisonment, he first froze for a moment, and then quickly reacted.
“Old Bai, did you run away from Heaven?”
“I didn’t bully it. It fucked me for a long time and ran away by itself.”
Bai Qiuran sighed.
“Ok?”
Wise Immortal doubted:
“Why are you so disappointed, you really hope it will stay with you?”
Bai Qiuran then briefly explained the situation to Wise Immortal. After hearing this, Wise Immortal was shocked and said:
“What? Heaven Jealousy actually uses this method to practice True Qi… However, if you think about it carefully, it seems that Heaven Jealousy’s Purple Palace has no limits. You can only go to the outside world to seek pressure. It is a pity that you have practiced too much. If you have less than 10,000 or 20,000 layers, maybe you can use space pressure to help you build a foundation. But now, space attacks have no effect on you, right?”
“I hate it.”
Bai Qiuran regretted deeply.
“It’s useless to say this now. Let’s think about how to get back first.”
Wise Immortal looked around.
“Which era are we now?”
“God knows.”
Bai Qiuran looked around and found that a group of immortals were at war with a huge monster next to him.
“Anyway, it must have been a long, long time.”
“I don’t know what era the Eastern Emperor Bell will send us to…”
Wise Immortal thought for a while then sighed:
“But fortunately, you already have True Qi in your body. This is hope. With your energy, even a filament of True Qi can be comparable to all the True Qi of a powerful cultivator. If you can understand clues about the rules of time in the rune structure of the gods we recorded, we may have the hope of returning to the original era.”
“Ok.”
Thinking of this fact, Bai Qiuran’s originally happy mood for having True Qi calmed down.
The surrounding scenes changed rapidly, showing the vicissitudes of time as the two of them showed the vicissitudes of time. After some time, the speed of scene change finally slowed down.
A repulsive force came, and the two were pushed out of the long river of time and landed on a lush forest hill.
“It seems that the power of the Eastern Emperor Bell is finally exhausted.”
Wise Immortal said:
“It’s really unlucky, we don’t know where we were thrown.”
Bai Qiuran took a deep breath, and then said in surprise:
“The spiritual energy here is so rich. It is at least ten times that of our time…”
Holding Wise Immortal’s head, he found a tall boulder nearby and climbed it up, and then saw the magnificent scene ahead.
They were in an extremely broad virgin forest, paved all the way to the end of the earth. In the forest, they could see towering mountain peaks everywhere, like a divine sword straight through the sky. The substantive spiritual energy enveloped these peaks and forests, forming pieces of colorful and enchanting clouds. The clear water formed a silver waterfall like the Milky Way, which fell from heaven. (1)
Bai Qiuran even saw the substantive spiritual energy turned into a mountain spring to flow down from a certain mountain peak, forming a clear stream on the ground.
The two were indulging in the beauty in front of them, and suddenly, countless birds in the forest flew up, screeching.
A roar came from afar, and a giant tiger with wings on its back and hundreds of meters in length flapped its wings and hovered in the sky.
The aura on this giant tiger was very powerful, almost equivalent to a cultivator in the Physique Integration stage. Even more shocking, it hovered in mid-air a few times, and suddenly fell to the ground, crawling between the mountains. It turned out to be hiding something.
The next moment, a white rainbow suddenly penetrated the sky, and the giant tiger wailed and fell to the ground sideways. A huge arrow appeared on its side abdomen, almost completely submerged in its body.
The blood dyed its fur red, and the giant tiger was trying to escape, but the arrow seemed to penetrate its vital organs. After a few seconds, the giant tiger’s head tilted. It died.
Then, the clouds in the sky suddenly broke, forming a big hole. A man with a length of about a thousand feet appeared. His upper body was like a normal adult man, while his lower body resembled a giant dragon. The dragon tail swung as his huge body landed from the sky, making the whole land tremble faintly.
He also held a huge bow that matched his figure in his hand, and a quiver was slung around his waist, which was filled with countless huge arrows.
He took a heavy step and came to the side of the giant tiger, laughed, and pulled out the arrow from the giant tiger’s body, wiped off the blood and put it back into the quiver, then lifted the giant tiger up and carried it on his shoulders.
After a while, the giant god passed through the clouds and returned to the sky.
Bai Qiuran and Wise Immortal looked at the big hole in the clouds for a long time, then Wise Immortal smiled bitterly:
“That is a god. It seems that the Eastern Emperor Bell has sent us back to the age of gods.”
