Chapter 71: Interesting, Interesting, Space Law
Gu Xiu was on his way back to Three Immortals Island.
The system rang.
"Ding!"
"Mission completed, 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 gone to 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 cast the law of space.
I 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 was right in front of him in an instant.
The big bird felt the movement of space, and seeing that it suddenly appeared 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 law power in his body again.
The surrounding space instantly produced a distortion, and the treasure chariot where Gu Xiu was located disappeared in place instantly.
The next moment, it appeared directly a million miles away.
"Interesting, interesting."
Gu Xiu finally knew why the law of space could be ranked in the front.
……
Mount Kunlun.
In a dilapidated grass house, Jiang Ziya held the jade bamboo slips, and the more he looked at the story compiled by Gu Xiu, the more he entered into it.
"For the sake of the sect's Investiture of the Gods mission, he exhausted his heart and soul, but ended up in this situation. It should be blamed on him for trusting the sect too much, but the sect is full of hypocrites, and the third-generation disciples accepted are all to respond to the calamity for the second-generation disciples, and the self in the book also got nothing, only getting a pile of Investiture of the Gods karma."
Suddenly, Jiang Ziya remembered something.
"Wait, I remember Junior Brother Shen Gongbao mentioned the Investiture of the Gods to me. I wonder if it is 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 this bundle of bamboo slips. Is it too coincidental?"
"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 an invisible hand, 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 were restricted by magic. Forget it, anyway, I picked it 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 the window, but his heart was still difficult to calm down.
Although he said he didn't care, his thoughts involuntarily returned to the content he saw in the bamboo slips.
Just when Jiang Ziya was full of worry, he saw the White Crane Boy floating down in front of the window.
"Senior Uncle Jiang, the Sect Leader is calling you over."
Jiang Ziya was slightly startled. He was on Mount Kunlun, doing miscellaneous work of 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 senses, he nodded and replied: "I will go with you." After saying that, he tidied up his clothes and went to the Jade Void Palace with the White Crane Boy.
The White Crane Boy led the way, and Jiang Ziya followed behind, secretly guessing what Yuanshi Tianzun was summoning him for this time.
He was not welcomed 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 accepted disciples, Yuanshi Tianzun had not called him for these years.
"Junior Brother White Crane, may I ask what the Teacher is looking for me for?" Jiang Ziya couldn't help but ask on the way.
"Senior Uncle Jiang, I don't know either, the Sect Leader didn't tell me."
Hearing this, Jiang Ziya nodded lightly and stopped asking.
It was just that the doubt in his heart increased a bit more.
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, holy 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 the Teacher."
Yuanshi Tianzun opened his eyes slightly, his gaze calm, and said slowly: "Ziya, do you know why I summoned you here today?"
Jiang Ziya lowered his head, terrified and replied: "This disciple is dull and really doesn't know the Teacher's deep meaning."
Yuanshi Tianzun was a little dissatisfied.
"Have you really been 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 Shen Gongbao was not liked by Yuanshi Tianzun because he was a different kind.
After being silent for a moment, Yuanshi Tianzun sighed slightly: "You were born with a thin life, and it is difficult to become an immortal. Now the world is in chaos, I want to send you down the mountain to perform the Investiture of the Gods on behalf of heaven, assist the wise master, and enjoy the blessings of the human world. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Jiang Ziya was stunned.
How did this plot look so much like the content written in that bundle of 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 senses and hurriedly bowed: "Teacher, can this disciple refuse to host the Investiture of the Gods and let Junior Brother Shen Gongbao host the Investiture of the Gods?"
Yuanshi Tianzun slowly opened his mouth: "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 left, the Teacher can choose someone else. This disciple has poor ability and low skills, and really cannot take on this heavy responsibility of the Investiture of the Gods." Jiang Ziya continued to push back.
Yuanshi Tianzun's face sank, his gaze revealing 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 reading the content in the bamboo slips, he only wanted to refuse.
"Teacher, this disciple can do it, but I have a few questions, and I hope the Teacher will answer them."
Yuanshi Tianzun's expression became colder: "Speak if you have anything 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 later?"
Yuanshi Tianzun frowned slightly and was silent for a long time: "The person who hosts the Investiture of the Gods will naturally follow others and 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 perform 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 this Mount Kunlun and be free and at ease.
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.
"This disciple has not yet become an immortal, and is now seventy years old, with not many days to live. How can I talk about enjoying the blessings of the human world? This disciple begs the Teacher to let me stay on Mount Kunlun to pour tea and water to honor the Teacher." ===== CHAPTER 72 =====
