Chapter 150: 【The Western Empress reappears, wishing to revive her parents】
Regardless of where the Miltank and Arceus came from, whether they were true legendary characteristics or the moves of a deeper-level chess player, Lin Xian was fearless.
With the milk baby in hand, I have the world; he had sufficient confidence.
As long as he brought out the Grandmaster of Beast Milk, the Little One, that sword that cut off eternity and isolated time, no matter what the situation, he could stand in an invincible position.
"High Priest, why did you pick me up?" The Little One said in a milky voice, his pair of watery big eyes filled with confusion.
"Of course, there is a good thing to hand over to you."
Lin Xian held the Little One high, standing before the big willow tree, facing the people of Stone Village, saying aloud: "Under the witness of the great Willow Deity, I will bestow upon the Little One an arduous duty."
"Shi Hao, do you have the confidence to take it on?"
"Yes!" The Little One, a newborn calf not afraid of a tiger, waved his fist with great ambition.
Lin Xian nodded with satisfaction, then, amidst the curious gazes of the villagers of Stone Village, announced incomparably solemnly: "I will hand over the task of managing the Miltank to you. From today on, you are the milker of Stone Village!"
The villagers of Stone Village had strange expressions. Letting the Little One, who loves drinking beast milk the most, manage the Miltank—what difference is there from letting a monkey guard the Peach Garden?
Where in the world is there a cat that doesn't steal fish? This was clearly giving the Little One a chance to commit theft while in charge.
"Good!" The Little One was incomparably excited, completely not considering so much, responding heartlessly and purely.
Lin Xian also revealed a brilliant smile. If there were all kinds of karma, let it all be added to the milk baby.
Because he was the one who drank the most beast milk. As he grew older, the nutrition he needed increased, and it was one jar of beast milk after another.
Time always passed unknowingly. In a flash, two years had passed. The Little One was already three and a half years old, his black hair hanging to his shoulders, his big eyes black and bright, very spirited, looking fair and clean, beautiful and cute.
With the nourishment of beast milk and Lin Xian's guidance, the Little One was better than ever. With a casual lift, he had ten thousand catties of giant strength. Relying solely on physical strength, he could crush Blood Moving Realm cultivators.
The Little One, who originally ran behind the big children, had transformed into a child king.
Other children ranged from six or seven to twelve or thirteen years old, each like a small fierce beast in the mountains, with infinite strength, their bodies surprisingly strong and sturdy, all possessing thousands of catties of divine strength.
They could even replace adults, going deep into the Great Wilderness to hunt fierce beasts, collect blood medicine, and gather resources for their own baptism.
But this also brought about a disaster. Several daring little brats went to steal the eggs of the Green-Scaled Eagle, the overlord of this area.
This was a powerful exotic beast, the top predator in this area. As long as one didn't go into the deepest part of the mountain range, one could walk sideways. It had the cultivation of the late Blood Moving stage, and could even use some bone texts, not to be judged by common sense. Even the Little One was not its opponent.
The prodigies of Stone Village, who had only risen for a few years, were chased by the Green-Scaled Eagle, crying for their fathers and mothers, in a sorry state.
"High Priest, save us!"
Er Meng, Da Zhuang, and the Little One led a group of children howling, running toward the village.
"This group of little rabbits!" The adult men of Stone Village cursed. The few little guys even dared to provoke the descendants of ancient demonic birds; they were truly not knowing whether they were living or dead.
But cursing was cursing, they still had to be saved. The adult men went to invite the old village chief to use the ancestral artifacts.
Although Stone Village had declined, it still had some foundation. The two ancestral artifacts were the final trump cards.
However, the old village chief had a calm expression, shaking his head: "We don't need to take action."
"You mean..." The adult men of Stone Village suddenly realized, all looking at an immortal child under the willow tree at the entrance of the village.
"The Willow Deity strokes my head, tying my hair to receive immortality."
Lin Xian said softly, his whole body blooming with divine radiance, brilliant and bright, like a divine infant Lin Xian, looking like a five or six-year-old child, but his black hair was thick, tied into a Dao bun, possessing a transcendent aura.
He listened to the cries for help, lifted his eyelids, did not stand up, only extended a finger, with a little spiritual light entwining, then slowly pressed down.
"Boom!"
In an instant, the void outside the village fluctuated, condensing a mysterious and profound rune in the firmament, like Mount Tai pressing down, falling toward the Green-Scaled Eagle!
The Green-Scaled Eagle shrieked. It was shocked by that terrifying rune, but unwilling to leave. Its black bird beak, like a curved knife, gathered lustrous radiance, wanting to unleash an ancient precious technique to fight to the death.
"Evil beast, why not surrender!"
Lin Xian shouted, and the other four fingers slowly extended, condensing the Five Elements, mutually generating and overcoming. In an instant, it was as if the Five-Finger Mountain was suppressing down, imprisoning all laws.
The Green-Scaled Eagle let out a mournful cry, its feathers flying, smashing heavily onto the ground.
Lin Xian then took a step forward, his whole body bathed in golden radiance, the blood energy of a flood dragon and giant elephant rushing into the sky, as if he were an Ancient Holy Body, and also like a six-foot golden body, sitting on the Green-Scaled Eagle, completely suppressing this big bird.
Finally, riding the descendant of the ancient demonic bird, he slowly flew into Stone Village and landed under the willow tree.
"Your children are all alive, I won't move a few eggs, but from now on, you will work for Stone Village and become a protector of my sect."
Lin Xian shouted, summoning the Little One and the others to hand over the eggs.
Three jade eggs the size of washbasins were crystalline and translucent, with spots, beautiful radiance flowing, the mysterious power of runes permeating, divine brilliance dotting them.
The Green-Scaled Eagle looked at the few eggs, which were intact, and the ferocity in its eyes dissipated a bit, then it lowered its head. This was the rule of the Great Wilderness: competing with heaven for freedom, and the weak are the prey of the strong.
Since Lin Xian had defeated it, there were only two choices: either die or surrender.
Then, an unexpected thing happened. The Willow Deity, who had been silent for years, moved. That single willow branch, green radiance swirling, dropped down like a brilliant divine chain, gently stroking one of the eggs, immediately causing it to shine brightly.
The patterns on one of the eggs began to evolve, a phenomenon of atavism occurring!
"The vitality of this egg is stronger than before by I don't know how many times. The life imprint inherited from the ancient demonic bird should have revived quite a bit. If this egg hatches, it will definitely be far superior to the Green-Scaled Eagle."
Chief Shi Yunfeng said in surprise.
The Green-Scaled Eagle was also shocked, suddenly raising its head, its eyes shooting out two lightning-like beams of light, then reverently kowtowing to the Willow Deity, its attitude much more docile than before.
The descendants of such ancient fierce beasts had wisdom not weaker than humans, and their ancestors were demonic gods, even comparable to human sages.
"Willow Deity, you have revived. Does the Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Art help you?" Lin Xian was overjoyed, stepping forward to greet.
"I have retrieved some old memories." The Willow Deity said calmly, then looked at Lin Xian, slowly saying: "Your Cave Heaven seems a bit unusual."
A Cave Heaven is a realm, and also a means of cultivation, absorbing the essence of the great heaven and earth, realizing the true meaning of Dao symbols, understanding the order of this world, as well as the changes in rules, as if re-enacting a small heaven and earth.
In short, it is opening up heaven and earth within or outside the human body, using this as a channel to seize the creation of heaven and earth, absorbing external energy to replenish oneself.
In the Cave Heaven realm, nine caves can be called King, but ten Cave Heavens is the ultimate, the true supreme of this realm.
As for the fusion of ten Cave Heavens, it belongs to truly breaking the limit, stepping into the field of pioneering systems.
Lin Xian could open up more Cave Heavens, but he only retained three Cave Heavens, like three flowers gathering at the top, repeating in cycles.
"Three Cave Heavens, Dao generates one, one generates two, two generates three?" The Willow Deity pondered. With Lin Xian's level, breaking the limit of the secret realm was very difficult, but opening eight or nine Cave Heavens, rivaling the prodigies of this world, was an easy task.
Why only open three Cave Heavens?
The Willow Deity thought of a possibility, asking: "You have researched the mystery of the Cave Heaven."
The Cave Heaven realm is not as simple as the surface. As the foundation of the Spirit Transformation realm, it possesses many functions, such as nourishing precious artifacts in the Cave Heaven, sacrificing and nourishing the strongest runes—these are all manifestations of the Great Dao, which will become profound with the strengthening of one's own cultivation, possessing infinite power.
"Willow Deity, please look." Lin Xian said softly, pinching the Dao seal, evolving his own three Cave Heavens.
The first Cave Heaven was plain, light rain flying, within which the past-self Lin Xian sat, as if about to feather and ascend to immortality. This was respecting oneself, without any surprises.
However, the second Cave Heaven was actually condensed from Five Elements Dao power, colorful and gorgeous, evolving the Dao of mutual generation and overcoming.
The most magical thing was that within the Cave Heaven, there was a god residing in the world. That was a peerless beauty, white clothes moving, possessing a temperament of ruling the world and sweeping across the universe, only a teardrop appeared at the corner of her eye, carrying loneliness and sorrow.
The third Cave Heaven was filled with surging essence, blood energy surging to the extreme, presenting a golden color, incomparably sacred. The god sitting in the Cave Heaven was a heroic man, sword eyebrows entering the temples, his eyes as deep as the sea.
If there were cultivators from later eras to identify it, they would definitely exclaim: "Ancient Holy Body!"
"Nourishing the spirit." The Willow Deity pondered, breaking the truth.
The Spirit Transformation realm is divided into three stages. The first stage is the physical body becoming spirit, the second stage is the reshaping of the true self in spirit, and the third stage is Cave Heaven nourishing the spirit.
Although Lin Xian is in the Cave Heaven realm, he involves the final sublimation of the Spirit Transformation realm.
Spirit Transformation, if walked to the extreme, can bestow divine sense upon the spirit body in the Cave Heaven, as if it truly has life.
If one completely bestows life upon the spirit body, realizing the miracle of creation, that is a god.
"Exactly so."
Lin Xian nodded, having a few guesses about his current state.
His connection with the other two Cave Heaven gods is just like the relationship between the Holy Body Ye Fan and the green lotus in the Bitter Sea.
Complementing each other, forming symbiosis. When he becomes strong to a certain stage, completely finishing the nourishing of the spirit, there will be two gods transcending out, turning into true life.
Combined with that bell sound on the river of time, it is not difficult to guess that this is the plan of the Wu Shi Great Emperor to revive his parents.
If it really reached that stage, the Cave Heaven evolving to the extreme, bestowing life, the two gods completely transcending out, then the Cave Heaven would inevitably collapse, returning to oneself, melting and returning to one.
Dao generates one, one generates two, two generates three, is the evolution of the Great Dao.
Three returns to two, two returns to one, one returns to Dao, is the transformation of the human body.
Cultivating to the end, the three Cave Heavens merge into one, forging a Unique Cave Heaven, which is exactly the essence of the evolution from the Chaotic Ancient Law to the Secret Realm Law.
The Cave Heaven turns into the Bitter Sea, turning from heaven to hell, pushing open one portal after another, evolving from the unity of heaven and man to the small universe of the human body.
"Change at the extreme?"
The Willow Deity took a look, having some realization. This evolution concerning the two major systems was of great help to her cultivation and Nirvana.
At this moment, the Willow Deity had to doubt again whether her past life as the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit had really arranged for a person to help her revive.
Today I ferry you, tomorrow you ferry me.
"I will help you."
The Willow Deity responded, imparting the essence of the Spirit Sacrifice Law to Lin Xian, making him take another step forward on the path of Cave Heaven Spirit Transformation and spirit nourishing, truly reaching Great Perfection!
The Spirit Sacrifice Law is closely related to the current world's law, both involving the Divine Dao.
The Spirit Sacrifice accepts the worship of ancient ancestors, being worshipped as a god. The Willow Deity, as the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit, is even a true Ancestral God, once worshipped by the people of the three thousand worlds, with endless gods and demons praying in reverence.
Several major realms of the current world's law are simply called Divine Fire, True God, Heavenly God—saying it has nothing to do with the Spirit Sacrifice system, who would believe it?
As for the three realms of Void Dao, Severing Self, and Escaping One, they are not very Divine Dao, filled with immortal energy; they are pieced together by several Venerables, and one look shows they continue the Immortal Dao system of the Immortal Ancient Law, not pure.
If the current world's law is a half-god, half-immortal immortal system, then the Spirit Sacrifice Law is a pure Divine Dao system.
In the application of faith power, the Spirit Sacrifice Law surpasses the current world's law by too much.
Current cultivators ignore the power of living beings, viewing low-realm living beings as ants, not knowing that in the dark, there is karma. Even mortals, accumulated to a certain degree, can settle accounts with Venerables.
With the guidance of the Willow Deity, an Ancestral God, Lin Xian had a great awakening, cracking many past difficulties, mastering deeper faith applications, and insight into the conversion of thought power and wish power.
In the future, the Willow Deity will use this to achieve the Immortal Emperor position, with heaven-shaking combat power, further explaining that the Divine Dao is not weaker than the Immortal Dao.
There has never been a useless system, only useless people.
Faith power, thought power, wish power, the prayers of living beings—they are not useless. Immortal Emperors all have to borrow this power to return.
If you never forget, there will be an echo—these eight words run through the cycle of eternity!
In a trance, the past-self Lin Xian heard countless prayers, mighty worship sounds, as if hundreds of millions of believers were chanting his true name.
"Holy Lord Lin Xian!"
"Messenger of the Myriad Emperors, acting agent of the Heavenly Emperor."
"Incarnation of the Green Emperor, descendant of the Wu Shi Great Emperor, descendant of the Heng Yu Great Emperor and the Void Great Emperor, disciple of the Western Empress, protector of the Holy Body..."
"Loyal! Faithful!"
