Chapter 387: 【Marriage Urging Method】 (4300)
"Peace-loving Duke Ye Fan, have you forgotten the great wish of the Holy Bodies through the ages to pacify the dark turmoil?"
Lin Xian shouted and scolded, standing at the high point of morality, "So lazy, how to become an Immortal, Emperor Zun, you have fallen!"
"I haven't forgotten for a moment, but the Saint Lord is also a Holy Body, you can just become Great Completion." Ye Fan was unmoved, calm and composed, long used to Lin Xian's accusations, just like a spring breeze blowing on his face, smiled indifferently, "Huang Tiandi lives in Kunlun, external affairs are decided by the Saint Lord."
"Damn it!"
Lin Xian's expression sank. The current Ye Fan is no longer the Ye Holy Body who just came out of the cottage, but also the cunning Ye Huang Tiandi. He has a set of small words, and it is really not easy to grasp.
"I want to put my energy into more important things." Ye Fan looked straight at the Immortal-Becoming Cauldron, having a premonition that this is his opportunity to attain the Dao.
The significance of the Green Cauldron to him is no less than the role of the Immortal Treasure Map to Lin Sheng.
On the Immortal-Becoming Cauldron, there are ancient ancestors, sun, moon, stars, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, flowers, birds, fish, insects, conceiving mysterious Dao and reason, especially the inside of the cauldron, which is the incomprehensible laws and patterns, genuine Immortal Dao!
Simulating, engraving, and copying the Immortal Dao laws of the Myriad Things Source Cauldron to the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron will be an unprecedented transformation.
Ye Fan had a premonition that the opportunity for his Immortal Three Dao-Cutting was in this cauldron.
"A path similar to Emperor Zun's, yet different from Emperor Zun's; transcending above the mortal world, leaping out of the entire great universe, and slaying the Heavenly Dao in defiance..."
Ye Fan crossed the Dao and realized the Dao in Kunlun Mountain, gradually stabilized the second immortal realm, but could never see the hope of cutting the Dao.
In the first month of Kunlun Mountain: Dao realization failed, drank immortal pool water, sweet.
In the second month of Kunlun Mountain: Dao realization failed, it should be that immortal water is useless, try gnawing two medicine kings.
In the third month of Kunlun Mountain: Daily self-reflection three times, Ye Fan, how did you forget the will to cut the Dao, too fallen.
Fourth month: Dao realization failed, see if there are any immortal treasures in the dragon peaks.
Fifth month: I think the immortal medicine is very charming.
Sixth month:...
Three months and three months, Ye Fan, this Source Heavenly Master, constantly explored in Kunlun Mountain, which can be called scraping the skin of the ground, making a Kunlun Mountain chicken flying and dog jumping, Ye Holy Lord has a posture of transforming toward Lin Sheng.
Many strange beasts in Kunlun Mountain ran to Lin Xian to complain. Lin Xian was furious when he heard it. Ye Fan ate up Kunlun Mountain, what did he eat?
"Ye Holy Body, the Five-Color Altar on the moon is built."
"Ye Holy Son, the Earth sects invite you to preach."
"Ye Huang Tiandi, the people under the mountain ask to see you, wanting to see the Kunlun Huang Tiandi."
"Ye Holy Lord! The Archaic Myriad Races have come out, the Heavenly Xuan Holy Land is waiting for you to go back and preside over the overall situation."
Lin Xian made various side-knocks, Ye Fan kept playing dumb, saying today the weather is not good and it is not an auspicious day, tomorrow asking for sick leave to treat Dao wounds, and dragged it for a whole year in Kunlun Xianshan.
Mountains outside the mountains, buildings outside the buildings, when will the Kunlun singing and dancing stop? The immortal wind makes the Emperor drunk, just taking the Primordial Wilderness as
Finally, after one year and one day, Lin Xian was furious and said gloomily, "A fine Ye Ye Di Zun, this is what you forced me to do."
Facing Ye Fan, who was like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, Lin Xian unleashed his final trump card: summoning the ultimate magic treasure—Ye Fan's mother.
Tattling—this tactic might be despicable, but it was effective.
Lin Xian invited Ye Fan's parents to Mount Kunlun and gave an embellished account of Ye Fan's flirtations in Beidou, exaggerating what existed and fabricating what didn't, creating all sorts of scandals.
"This is a letter from the Purple Mansion Saintess, this is a message from the Ji family, this is from the Yaoguang Saintess... eh, why is there also one from the Yaoguang Saint Son? Ahem, that's not important."
Lin Xian opened the jade slip sent by the Yaoguang Saint Son and scanned it; he understood immediately. This was a letter of challenge, and also a covenant.
The ancient myriad races had already emerged in Beidou, and the bloodlines of the various ancient emperors had appeared one after another: Huang Xudao, the Divine Silkworm Daoist, the Qilin siblings, and the Golden Heavenly Maiden were all genuine ancient imperial children, with shocking bloodlines and extraordinary foundations.
These ancient imperial children formed an alliance to challenge the human imperial children and clash with the Heavenly Court's prodigies. In such an open and honest confrontation, even the Holy Prince could not show favoritism. It wasn't seven imperial children fighting Wang Teng; it had to be one-on-one victories for them to step onto their own imperial paths and be truly convinced.
However, compared to the Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus and the Origin Spirit Holy Body, these were all minor matters.
Under Lin Xian's smear campaign, Ye Fan was comparable to the reincarnation of Emperor Hengyu and the rebirth of the Human Desire Dao founder, worthy of being called the number one great demon in the world.
A child who just returned home is like a treasure, but a child who has been home for a while is like a blade of grass. Ye Fan, who had stayed for over a year, was the Earth's Jerry, and with Lin Xian's embellishments, that was truly something.
Ye Fan's mother was furious upon hearing this and immediately rushed to Mount Kunlun. With just a few moves, she took Ye Fan down. Ye Fan sighed in apology and then fled with his head in his hands.
No matter your Desolate Ancient Holy Body or reincarnation of Emperor Zun, under the offensive of the marriage-urging technique, you could only retreat step by step.
"Earth, I will return! Saint Master Lin, you just wait!"
Ye Fan gritted his teeth, bid a tearful farewell to Earth, and stepped onto the path back to Beidou.
The Kunlun Xianshan, no longer plagued by Ye Fan, finally ushered in peaceful days. But these peaceful days did not last long; the immortals of Kunlun discovered they had rejoiced too soon, for they had ushered in the era of Saint Master Lin ruling the world.
Lin Xian built Mount Kunlun into the capital beneath the Emperor and carried out extensive planning. The first step was to bring the unruly beast kings of Mount Kunlun under control.
The ancient beasts of Mount Kunlun were at least in the Immortal Platform Secret Realm, and there was no shortage of true Dao-Slaying Kings.
Ye Fan, at the Second Immortal Realm, couldn't beat the four beast kings and could only use the Word-Stealing Secret to run away. The three Quasi-Emperors were too lazy to bother with them, and Lin Xian was busy comprehending the Immortal-Becoming Land, leaving the beast kings to be carefree for a while longer.
Now, he had the time to clean up the pets in the house.
The four great beast kings had different origins: a Golden Bull King, a Black Divine Ape, a White Bat transformed into the appearance of a Daoist, and a true Dragon Horse.
The first two beasts were easy to handle; they were just exotic beasts. Lin Xian was a Half-Sage and had cultivated on the Kunlun Xianshan for many days, his cultivation base having greatly increased, so he suppressed them directly with his realm.
Only the Bat Daoist held a black dragon spear in his hand, emitting an aura that made one's heart jump.
"A Quasi-Emperor weapon, the immortal spear of Rong Chengzi."
Lin Xian was thoughtful, understanding why a perfectly good beast king was dressed as a Daoist; he must have obtained part of Rong Chengzi's inheritance.
"Join my Heavenly Court, and I will guide you to meet the pre-Qin Qi Refiners to obtain the complete inheritance. How about that?"
Lin Xian extended an invitation to the Daoist.
"Defeat me first!" the Daoist shouted. The black dragon spear bloomed with black light; it was no ordinary weapon, but the magic treasure of someone about to achieve the Dao, second only to an Imperial weapon.
This was the weapon of the ancestor of Earth Immortals, Rong Chengzi.
"Do you need my help?"
The Divine Child, who was comprehending the mysteries of the Immortal Tripod at the peak of Mount Kunlun, sensed this and wanted to throw the Immortal Tripod down.
"I am a Half-Sage; without an immortal weapon in hand, can I not do anything to you?"
Lin Xian smiled indifferently, pointed at the beast king, and said, "I suppose you haven't used such magic treasures before. Let me teach you a principle: Imperial weapons have great power, but they also have great consumption."
One step out with the Word-Stealing Secret, two steps and green lotuses bloom, three steps and the void becomes chaotic as figures vanish, four steps and time and space collapse, banishing one to the chaotic ancient times.
The Four Steps of Treading Heaven!
This was the divine ability Lin Xian was most proud of, fusing four types of Imperial laws. Even a Saint of the Golden Crow race might not be able to catch him, let alone a few Dao-Slaying Kings.
The Bat Daoist's face turned green. He never expected that Lin Xian, a dignified Half-Sage with a higher realm than him, would not only refuse to attack head-on but would actually play guerrilla warfare.
It was as if he were the Half-Sage and Lin Xian were the King, attacking the mortal from the immortal realm—completely lacking in martial virtue!
"Hoo..."
A moment later, the Bat King could no longer support the massive consumption of the Quasi-Emperor weapon. The dragon spear trembled, and that world-shocking aura extinguished, fading into darkness as the black light retracted and vanished.
"We pay our respects to the Saint."
After a few slaps, the three bruised and swollen beast kings were all honestly convinced and willing to become protectors of the Heavenly Court.
"Very good. I appoint you as my Dharma Kings of the Heavenly Court: the Golden-Horned Bull King, the Black Divine Ape King, and the White-Winged Bat King."
Lin Xian's mischievous side emerged, and he appointed the three protectors of the Heavenly Court, then inquired about the Dragon Horse. Unlike the other exotic beast kings, it was a creature of flesh and blood. The Dragon Horse of Mount Kunlun was a spirit born of heaven and earth's essence, extremely extraordinary, and also extremely unruly.
Usually, the Dragon Horse bullied the three Kunlun beast kings quite a bit. Now, hearing that Lin Xian was going to find trouble with the Dragon Horse, the three kings were overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Saint, please come in. We will lead the way for you, elder."
With the three kings leading the way, Lin Xian soon found the Dragon Horse.
The Dragon Horse occupied an immortal land, the Fire God Cave. Rong Chengzi's immortal spear had come accompanied by a piece of Fire God Source. The dragon spear was obtained by the Daoist, while the Fire God Source combined with the Kunlun immortal veins to transform into a strange energy, forming a cave dwelling—a holy land for cultivation.
Over these years, the four kings had waged countless battles over the cave dwelling and the dragon spear, and now it all benefited Lin Xian.
"Fire God Source, one of the materials for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill. I didn't expect to encounter it here."
"Did Rong Chengzi also want to refine the Immortal Pill? He is worthy of being a ruthless person who vied for the position of Great Emperor with the Emperor Lord."
Lin Xian sighed. The Eight Views Palace had half a pill recipe, which happened to record this. The Heavenly Court had scoured the Ziwei Emperor Star and ruled over the Primordial Ancient Star without finding a few of the materials, yet he didn't expect to have a harvest on the Kunlun Xianshan.
He grabbed the Fire God Source, refined it into its source form, and then turned his gaze toward the Dragon Horse, smiling brightly: "Are you willing to be the Dragon King of my Heavenly Court?"
Since ancient times, spirits have had heaven-defying aptitude, and there is no shortage of Emperors who achieved the Dao. In the Divine Ruins, there is a self-slashed Supreme Being, the Ancient Spirit Emperor, who achieved the Dao as a spirit of essence.
One can imagine the power and heaven-defying nature of the Dragon Horse. How could such a darling of heaven and earth easily surrender?
"Ang!!!"
The Dragon Horse let out a long roar, not like a horse's neigh, but like a dragon's chant. It didn't answer, turned around, and left, its speed extremely fast, almost catching up to the Word-Stealing Secret.
It stepped on flames, its whole body fiery red, and it had dragon scales like Phoenix Blood Red Gold on its body. In the blink of an eye, it crossed countless divine mountains and trampled through dragon veins. Ordinary Great Completion Kings might not necessarily be its match.
"A fine Dragon Horse. If I hadn't obtained the Fuxi inheritance, I really wouldn't be able to subdue you."
Lin Xian smiled calmly. The Dragon Horse was indeed heaven-defying and a spirit, but how could Emperor Fuxi be an ordinary emperor? When the Fuxi clan ruled the world, the Dragon Horse emerged from the river carrying the map.
The mount of the Fuxi clan was a Dragon Horse. As a successor of Fuxi, he naturally had the corresponding means of subdual.
"Dao and Dragon as one, the River Map of the world!"
Lin Xian held the dragon spear, his whole body bathed in brilliance, his physical body expanding with the wind, actually transforming into a giant with a human head and dragon body—the Fuxi Dharma Image, standing tall between heaven and earth, as if one foot could crush the Kunlun mountains.
Behind his head appeared a Dao diagram, circulating myriad Daos. The diagram used white circles for Yang, for Heaven; black dots for Yin, for Earth, combining the five directions, the five elements, Yin and Yang, to transform the phenomena of heaven and earth.
One and six share the same sect in the north, because Heaven produces water and Earth completes it with six; two and seven share the same path in the south, because Earth produces fire and Heaven completes it with seven; three and eight are friends in the east, because Heaven produces wood and Earth completes it with eight; four and nine are companions in the west, because Earth produces metal and Heaven completes it with nine; five and ten share the same path in the center, because Heaven produces earth and Earth completes it with ten.
"Heaven and Earth combine the five directions, Yin and Yang combine the five elements, rotating endlessly. No matter how fast you are, you cannot escape my Five-Finger Mountain!"
Lin Xian shouted, performing the Four Steps of Treading Heaven. The fifth step landed on the back of the Dragon Horse, like Mount Tai pressing down, forcibly pressing a Dao-Slaying King to the ground.
Using the River Map to suppress the Dragon Horse, it was restrained to death.
The Dragon Horse struggled with all its might. Although born extraordinary, it had not undergone systematic cultivation, so how could it resist Fuxi's divine abilities?
For a time, the Dragon Horse roared, shaking the ten-thousand-mile Kunlun and causing countless exotic beasts to tremble.
Lin Xian had heard the story of taming eagles; taming divine beasts was the same principle—a carrot and a stick. He said leisurely, "Join my Heavenly Court, and I will pass on the senior techniques of the Dragon Horse lineage to you."
The Dragon Horse spat out two streams of white air, very restless and uneasy, not wanting to submit and wanting to run away.
"You are a protector of my Heavenly Court, not a mount. How about I give you a Medicine King as a salary?"
Lin Xian smiled slightly, took out a Ginseng Medicine King, dangled it in front of the Dragon Horse, and drove it forward.
"An eighty-thousand-year Medicine King..."
The Dragon Horse swallowed its saliva, smelling the pungent medicinal effect, and was suddenly hesitant.
"If you don't agree, don't blame me for being ruthless. One spear strike, and I'll turn you into ashes." Lin Xian said indifferently, outputting a trace of Saint power to activate the dragon spear. The true Quasi-Emperor aura circulated, as if the ten-thousand-mile Kunlun were collapsing, startling the kings into trembling.
Under the combination of kindness and might, the Dragon Horse chose to bow its head temporarily. Lin Xian also stopped while he was ahead, got off the Dragon Horse's back, led it to meet the other beast kings, and appointed it as the Heavenly Court's Spirit Dragon King, completing the four great Dharma Kings of the Heavenly Court.
Looking at the Dragon Horse's disheveled appearance, the other three beast kings secretly laughed. You guy also have a day like this! The Dragon Horse relied on being a natural spirit and was a bully in Kunlun, used to being overbearing.
Now that it was being handled by Lin Xian, it could be considered a case of a wicked horse meeting a wicked person, venting their anger.
"Get lost!"
The Dragon Horse snorted coldly and gave each of the beast kings a kick with its hoof. It couldn't beat Lin Sheng, but it could certainly beat them.
The three beast kings were honest and recognized the Dragon Horse as the head of the four Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly Court.
"You are responsible for guarding Mount Kunlun, defending the four gates of southeast, northwest."
Lin Xian instructed, "The Heavenly Court wants to select talent in the human world, and the various Daoist traditions will send their most outstanding disciples to Mount Kunlun for cultivation."
"That filthy land." The Dragon Horse sneered, believing that everything outside Mount Kunlun was a Dharma-Ending region, too desolate, without a trace of spiritual energy, simply a desert compared to the immortal mountain.
In the outside world, First Immortal Realm beings were great experts, but Kunlun had Dao-Slaying Kings; the difference was clear at a glance.
"The Heavenly Court has taken away the immortal weapons, and Earth has already begun its spiritual energy recovery."
"It might not be apparent in a year or two, but after ten years, a hundred years, there will be flourishing Dao laws and divine immortals manifesting."
Lin Xian said meaningfully, "The land outside is extraordinary. Do not look down on the Central Plains because of your Kunlun origin. Those are the descendants of the Emperors Yan and Huang, with extraordinary bloodlines."
The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors on the surface, and in the shadows, Chi You, the Bright Emperor... there are at least a dozen imperial bloodlines on Earth!
