Chapter 634: The True Person with the Mandate of Heaven

In this cultivation world, the strongest force was the sect where the Longhu Mountain Daoist Zhu Yan was located.

The last time Lin Jing found him, the other party was still cultivating honestly.

But after more than a thousand years, Lin Jing discovered that Zhu Yan had disappeared.

And it wasn't ascension, nor did he leave this world to go to other realms.

In the sect where he was, a Dao-Sacrifice Monument was erected, with Zhu Yan's name carved on it, which meant he had already passed away.

Lin Jing's head suddenly grew big. This Daoist, as an Earth traveler, was an important link in his search for the Earth ascension path.

If it were someone else, they might not necessarily be able to cooperate well with him.

And this ascension path was also very important at the moment.

Because as Earth's rules improved, he discovered that the treasure he had seized from the Evil Moon Demon General that could smuggle to Earth could no longer be used. After all, the Ancient Immortal World was no longer the leaky place it once was.

In other words, he and his pet beasts wanted to go to Earth, and next they could only take the path of ascension.

"This shouldn't be."

"Although he wasn't the strongest in the lower realm, he shouldn't have died easily."

Lin Jing's spiritual sense covered the entire cultivation world, and he really didn't find any traces of the other party. He couldn't help but descend near this Dao-Sacrifice Monument...

"Trace the cause from the fruit."

Lin Jing waved one hand, and the power of time flowed backward. The surrounding environment immediately became illusory, and he felt as if he had stepped into another space-time.

The power of time.

After Lin Jing obtained the Reincarnation Immortal Body, although he hadn't reincarnated yet, besides specific abilities, this Reincarnation Immortal Body also had a certain bonus to the Dao of Time. Although Lin Jing hadn't cultivated the Dao of Time much over the years, his understanding of the Dao of Time was getting deeper and deeper.

Tracing back in time, Lin Jing saw that one day, Zhu Yan suddenly left the planet, and after an unknown amount of time, he returned covered in injuries.

After holding his last strength to return to the world, he didn't live long before he died and was eventually buried here by the sect.

"What did he encounter?" Lin Jing was puzzled. To fully understand this kind of thing, simple Dao of Time divine abilities were helpless.

It seems he still had to...

He sat down on the spot and waited quietly. A few years later, a turtle came from outside the sky.

God-Spirit Book.

People often came here to worship, which showed that Zhu Yan was also an ancestor-level figure in this cultivation world, had a certain belief, and met the resurrection criteria of the God-Spirit Book.

Soon, Zhu Yan's projection slowly appeared before Lin Jing.

Opening his eyes and seeing Lin Jing, Zhu Yan directly showed a look of confusion and astonishment.

"Why didn't you come to find me, and instead died secretly by yourself?"

Lin Jing asked. When the other party left Earth, Lin Jing promised that the other party could come to find him, and he would compensate for the other party's loss of the mandate of heaven. As a result, this guy didn't come until he died.

"The struggle for the mandate of heaven is for the strong. My loss of the mandate of heaven was because my skills were inferior to others," Zhu Yan said freely.

"After returning, I focused on seclusion and cultivation, wanting to become stronger before going to help Fellow Daoist exterminate the Heavenly Demon. But who would have thought that Fellow Daoist's speed of becoming stronger was so fast that it didn't take much time to destroy the Demon Sect. Zhu is ashamed."

"After the ascension path reopened, you didn't choose to ascend either?"

"No," Zhu Yan shook his head: "I have no interest in ascension. Even if I want to ascend, I hope to ascend to the Ancient Immortal World, not the current Immortal World."

Lin Jing nodded, just as he had anticipated. People who traveled from Earth had no interest in ascending to the current Immortal World.

This was also because Earth travelers were not nurtured by the concepts of the cultivation world from a young age, and the pursuit of ascending to become an Immortal was not a pursuit engraved in the depths of their bloodline.

"Fellow Daoist manifested me in this form, should be wanting to know how I died, right?"

"That's right."

Zhu Yan gave a wry smile and said: "When I traveled back, I was thinking, is there any way to become strong quickly? Soon, I thought of the Ancient Immortal World."

"Fellow Daoist was able to obtain the mandate of heaven from Earth, one of the four Immortal Worlds. Then, what about the other two Ancient Immortal Worlds that also had declining spiritual energy? Would there be any opportunities?"

"Therefore, when the Emperor's Envoy sent me back, I once asked him about the status of the other two Ancient Immortal Worlds."

"The other two Ancient Immortal Worlds were still in a state of silence, unable to even give birth to the Qi Refining stage, and the environment was even worse than Earth. Even as for living beings, there were very few."

"Even so, I still held a fluke and investigated their traces."

"And then?" Lin Jing became interested.

"I don't know whether to say I was lucky or unlucky, but I really... investigated some things," Zhu Yan said: "I found a place, a dojo left by an Immortal Emperor in the lower realm."

"Like Earth, the other two Ancient Immortal Worlds also once had an Immortal Emperor leading a group of people to cross borders to find a new place for cultivation, passing through the cultivation world. Among them, there was an Immortal Emperor who, for some reason, failed to cross the border successfully, but sat down in the lower realm and left a dojo that kept moving and drifting in the starry sky."

Lin Jing understood and said: "You were severely injured in that dojo."

Zhu Yan sighed: "That's right. I originally thought that even if I couldn't get the Immortal Emperor's inheritance, maybe I could get an immortal artifact that could change my destiny like the Fishing Old Man, but I was still too naive. The Immortal Emperor's will still remained in the dojo, and the attack consciousness was strong. Before I could explore, I was severely injured by the leaking Immortal Emperor's will..."

"I found a place to recuperate for a period of time and then hurried back, no longer thinking about it. But who knew that the Emperor's injury was fundamentally difficult to reverse? Not long after, my injury recurred and I died."

"So that's it." Lin Jing sighed with regret: "In a sense, being able to discover this dojo, Brother Zhu can be considered to have extraordinary luck, but his strength was insufficient."

"Failure to kill you with one blow shows that the will was already very weak. What a pity."

"People find it hard to dismantle." Zhu Yan also wanted to be stronger.

"Then Fellow Daoist, do you want to be resurrected?" Lin Jing asked.

"Hmm???" Zhu Yan was stunned and said: "Resurrected?"

Lin Jing nodded: "The projection manifested by the 'God-Spirit Book' can reshape the body under certain conditions, but the conditions are relatively harsh. And even if resurrected, you might lose your original power and have to start all over again."

He looked at the Mechanism Turtle next to him.

The first Ancient Emperor had actually been resurrected in this way, and had also ascended.

Although the conditions were extremely harsh, as the supreme being of the lower realm now, he could still achieve those conditions.

"Brother Lin came to find me, is there anything?" Zhu Yan said seriously: "If I can be resurrected, I will definitely do my best to help."

Lin Jing smiled: "Let's talk about it after successful resurrection. I just want to discuss with you the matter of ascending to Earth, and also, the Immortal Emperor dojo related..."

"I will tell Brother Lin everything, it's just that the dojo is moving all the time, and the location is hard to find."

"No need to tell me, tell it." Lin Jing pointed to the Mechanism Turtle and said: "It has plenty of time, let it find it itself."

The Mechanism Turtle showed a sharp expression, examining Zhu Yan.

This kid has some skills.

It wandered for so long and only found a True Immortal-level ruin, but this guy found an Immortal Emperor dojo?

As expected of the original person with the mandate of heaven, I have to find a way to suck his luck dry.
