Chapter 240: Interesting, Interesting, Space Law

Gu Xiu was on his way back to Three Immortals Island.

The system rang.

"Ding!"

"Mission complete, congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Law of Space!"

Now he already had two Laws of Space.

Feeling the mysterious and powerful power of the Law of Space surging in his body.

Gu Xiu's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Mastering two Laws of Space, my attainment in the Law of Space can be considered a small success, and my strength has reached a higher level. If I encounter a strong enemy I can't beat, I can also use the Law of Space to escape."

Seeing a big bird flying in the sky in the distance.

A sharp light flashed in Gu Xiu's eyes, and he immediately used the Law of Space.

He saw ripples suddenly appearing in the surrounding space, and the distance between him and the big bird narrowed at an incredible speed.

The big bird that was originally out of reach appeared right in front of Gu Xiu in an instant.

The big bird felt the movement of space, and seeing itself suddenly appear in front of Gu Xiu, it was so scared that it hurriedly flapped its wings to escape.

Gu Xiu didn't care about the big bird.

He mobilized the power of the law in his body again.

The surrounding space instantly distorted, and the treasure carriage where Gu Xiu was located disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The next moment, it appeared directly a million miles away.

"Interesting, interesting."

Gu Xiu finally knew why the Law of Space could be ranked at the front.

Mount Kunlun.

In a dilapidated thatched cottage, Jiang Ziya held the jade bamboo slips, and the more he looked at the story Gu Xiu compiled, the more he entered into it.

"For the sake of the sect's Investiture of the Gods mission, he exhausted his efforts, but ended up in this situation. It's also his fault for trusting the sect too much. As a result, the sect is full of hypocrites, and the third-generation disciples they took in were all to respond to the calamity for the second-generation disciples. And the self in the book didn't get anything, only a pile of karma from the Investiture of the Gods."

Suddenly, Jiang Ziya remembered something.

"Wait, I remember Junior Brother Shen Gongbao mentioned the Investiture of the Gods to me. I don't know if it's the same thing as the Investiture of the Gods mentioned above?"

Jiang Ziya frowned and fell into deep thought.

"Junior Brother Shen just told me about the Investiture of the Gods list, and I received these bamboo slips. Is it too much of a coincidence?"

"But what is described in this book is so detailed and true that one has to believe it..."

Jiang Ziya picked up the bamboo slips in his hand and wanted to read them again, but found that the words on the bamboo slips were disappearing rapidly before his eyes.

He hurriedly leaned closer to see clearly, but those words were like being wiped away by invisible hands, quickly becoming blurred, until they disappeared completely, leaving only a blank jade surface.

This was the time limit set by Gu Xiu, which only existed for three days. When the time was up, the words on it would disappear.

Jiang Ziya frowned tightly and fell into deep thought.

"It seems that the jade bamboo slips have been restricted by magic. Forget it, anyway, I picked them up unintentionally, so I won't care."

After saying that, Jiang Ziya sighed lightly and placed the blank jade bamboo slips on the table beside him.

He turned and walked to the window, looking at the scenery outside, but his heart was still hard to calm down.

Although he said he wouldn't care, his thoughts couldn't help but return to the content he saw in the bamboo slips.

Just as Jiang Ziya was full of worry, he saw the White Crane Boy floating down in front of the window.

"Grand-uncle Jiang, the Sect Leader is calling you over."

Jiang Ziya was slightly startled. He was on Mount Kunlun, doing miscellaneous work like watering pines and planting peaches, and didn't have much ability.

Today, he was actually received by Yuanshi Tianzun, and he was a little flattered.

Regaining his composure, he nodded and responded: "I will go with you." After saying that, he tidied up his clothes and went with the White Crane Boy.

The White Crane Boy led the way, and Jiang Ziya followed behind, secretly guessing why Yuanshi Tianzun summoned him this time.

He was not liked in the Chan Sect. Although he was nominally a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, Yuanshi Tianzun had never taught him the Dao. Except for when he took him as a disciple, Yuanshi Tianzun hadn't called him in all these years.

"Junior Brother White Crane, may I ask why Teacher is looking for me?" Jiang Ziya couldn't help but ask on the way.

"Grand-uncle Jiang, I don't know either. The Sect Leader didn't tell me."

Hearing this, Jiang Ziya nodded lightly and stopped asking.

But the confusion in his heart increased a bit.

He had to follow the White Crane Boy and continue forward, entering the Jade Void Palace.

Yuanshi Tianzun sat high on the auspicious clouds, surrounded by Dao rhymes, sacred and majestic.

Antarctic Immortal Weng was also in the Jade Void Palace, standing quietly on the side.

Jiang Ziya hurriedly bowed: "Disciple Jiang Ziya pays respects to Teacher."

Yuanshi Tianzun opened his eyes slightly, his gaze calm, and slowly said: "Ziya, do you know why I summoned you here today?"

Jiang Ziya lowered his head and answered in fear: "Disciple is dull and truly does not know Teacher's deep meaning."

Yuanshi Tianzun was a little dissatisfied.

"Do you really just stay in the small dilapidated house on the back mountain, watering pines and planting peaches, and not hearing anything outside the window?"

"Teacher, please calm your anger."

Jiang Ziya was too slow and not as shrewd as Shen Gongbao, but because Shen Gongbao was an alien, he was not liked by Yuanshi Tianzun.

After being silent for a moment, Yuanshi Tianzun sighed slightly: "You were born with a thin fate, and it is difficult for you to become an immortal. Now the world is in chaos, and I want to send you down the mountain to host the Investiture of the Gods, assist the wise master, and enjoy the blessings of the mortal world. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ziya was stunned.

Why did this plot look so much like the content written in those bamboo slips?

Seeing Jiang Ziya stunned for a long time, Yuanshi Tianzun frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Shang, do you have any questions?"

Jiang Ziya suddenly regained his composure and hurriedly bowed: "Teacher, can this disciple refuse to host the Investiture of the Gods and let Junior Brother Shen Gongbao host it instead?"

Yuanshi Tianzun slowly said: "Shen Gongbao has already been expelled from the sect by me."

Hearing this, Jiang Ziya was shocked. No wonder he hadn't seen Shen Gongbao recently; it turned out he had been expelled from the sect.

"Junior Brother Shen has left, Teacher can choose someone else. This disciple has poor ability and low skills, and really cannot shoulder this heavy responsibility of the Investiture of the Gods." Jiang Ziya continued to shirk.

Yuanshi Tianzun's face sank, his gaze full of majesty.

"This is your mission, the number of days, and it cannot be refused!"

If it were before, Jiang Ziya would have agreed happily and gone to do it, but since seeing the content in the bamboo slips, he only wanted to refuse.

"Teacher, this disciple can do it, but I have a few questions, I hope Teacher will answer them."

Yuanshi Tianzun's expression became increasingly stern: "Speak if you have something to say."

Jiang Ziya took a deep breath and gathered his courage.

"Teacher, what will happen to the person who hosts the Investiture of the Gods afterward?"

Yuanshi Tianzun frowned slightly and was silent for a long time: "The person who hosts the Investiture of the Gods will naturally follow others to be listed in the immortal class."

Jiang Ziya listened respectfully, but his face was full of confusion.

Comparing it with the content in the bamboo slips, he found that it didn't match at all.

But he really didn't want to go down the mountain to host the Investiture of the Gods. It was better to have one less thing than one more thing. Regardless of whether it was true or false, it was better to stay on Mount Kunlun and be at peace.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ziya gathered his courage again.

"Teacher, this disciple wants to continue cultivating on the mountain and really doesn't want to enter the mortal world." His voice was sincere, and his weather-beaten face was full of pleading.

"Disciple has not yet become an immortal, and now I am already seventy years old, with not many days to live. How can I talk about enjoying the blessings of the mortal world? Disciple begs Teacher to let me stay on Mount Kunlun to pour tea and water to serve Teacher." ===== CHAPTER 241 =====
