Chapter 632

Brother Qian Chen was stunned and laughed: "You say, how could I, a perfectly ordinary spirit treasure, become the Lord of Samsara? If you ask me, you'd better ask someone more capable!"

"Eh? You don't want to?"

The Western Kunlun Mirror's voice was slightly surprised, but she still nodded. However, she saw Brother Qian Chen's shoulders tense slightly, holding his breath as he waited for her answer. Seeing that she didn't say anything, he let out a sigh of relief and suddenly summoned the Dao Dust Pearl to sense his own time.

"Time has not flowed abnormally..."

Brother Qian Chen gasped.

"What are you doing?" The Western Kunlun Mirror felt that even if she could jump through time and traverse timelines, she still couldn't figure out what Brother Qian Chen meant by this.

Brother Qian Chen whispered: "I was worried that the Supreme was nearby, so I tested it..."

The Western Kunlun Mirror asked blankly: "So, do you want to be the Lord of Samsara or not?"

Strange, why can't I see the future of this period of time anymore? — The Western Kunlun Mirror also had some doubts in her heart.

"I want to!" Brother Qian Chen said decisively: "Of course I do!"

Brother Qian Chen was quite excited at this moment, his heart pounding like a deer, and as he looked at the Western Kunlun Mirror, his face flushed slightly, and his breathing became a little heavier.

How big a platform is the Land of Samsara? Don't look at how Brother Qian Chen has gained the nickname "Boy of Ten Thousand Treasures" after wandering around all these years; compared to the monstrous foundation and boundless wealth of the Land of Samsara, he could only be described as penniless.

Among the Innate Spirit Treasures, he belongs to the kind of spirit treasure that is cleaner than a beggar's bowl!

Ordinary reincarnators who have obtained such an opportunity in the Land of Samsara have a chance to attain the Primordial Spirit realm, comparable to joining a major sect like the direct lineage of the Three Pure Ones.

And among the direct lineages of the Three Pure Ones, once a reincarnator emerges, they are often far superior to their peers, becoming the leaders of their generation... whether it is Senior Brother Yan or Ning Ning Shimei Si, it is the same!

If one has the opportunity to master the Land of Samsara and become the Lord of Samsara, such an opportunity is simply unimaginably great.

If one can obtain a bit of it, passing the tribulations of the Primordial Spirit realm would be a trivial matter. It would allow Brother Qian Chen to never have to worry about external objects again! It would be like turning over and becoming the master, opening a cheat that would make this book impossible to continue writing!

"Actually, becoming the Lord of Samsara is like a natural chasm for ordinary cultivators! Even for those at the Dao Lord level, after attaining the Dao with the help of the Land of Samsara, they can only sever karma and struggle out of it; wanting to master the Land of Samsara is simply out of the question."

"Those who have had this crooked idea have all been beaten into the Creation Cauldron by our joint efforts. They have been suppressed by the Great Sun Jin Zhong and the Yin-Yin Yang Shan. But your identity is unusual after all; you are a spirit treasure with seniority, so joining us is not difficult!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror teased him for a long time before saying leisurely: "The Land of Samsara has an exchange list; if you sell yourself, you can join us!"

"Wait!" Brother Qian Chen realized: "When I first entered the Land of Samsara, the prompt 'Possess the Innate Spirit Treasure Supreme Dao Dust Pearl, can exchange for 30 million morality points!'—is that the way to join the Lord of Samsara?"

"Yes!" the Western Kunlun Mirror said leisurely: "Didn't you see that I am on the exchange list? The Land of Samsara is a means set up by the great sect leaders. Although we spirit treasures are the 'Lords of Samsara' who operate the Land of Samsara on behalf of the great beings, we also bear responsibilities! Therefore, you must first become a part of the Land of Samsara and act according to the laws of Samsara before you can become a Lord of Samsara."

"Authority and duty are one; how can one enjoy the status of Lord of Samsara without bearing the responsibility of operating the Land of Samsara?"

She glanced at Brother Qian Chen and said slowly: "Anyway, you are a spirit treasure passed down by the Supreme Dao Ancestor; there is no great being in the cosmos who dares to refine you! Just share the duties of the Lord of Samsara with me and enjoy the convenience of the Land of Samsara."

"As for those who have gathered enough morality points for exchange and want to refine us, the Land of Samsara has stated in advance that to exchange for the spirit treasures at the top of the list, one must complete a designated mission!"

"And that mission is—to gain the recognition of the spirit treasure itself!"

"So, those spirit treasures at the top of the Land of Samsara's exchange list are all traps?" Brother Qian Chen suddenly realized.

"That's not necessarily true; many spirit treasures themselves intend to find a successor. For example, your companion; if she has the opportunity in the future, she can accept the test of the Shaoqing Sword, and the success rate is quite high!"

Brother Qian Chen understood it in a different way!

"So you are all wage earners operating the Land of Samsara! Many great sect leaders joined forces to start a business, opened the Land of Samsara, and sent you to run this 'company'! And there are no requirements for performance, so you group of professional managers... management, operate the Land of Samsara according to rules and regulations, and call yourselves 'Lords of Samsara'."

"And I am a spirit treasure that meets your recruitment conditions, so I'm an alumnus, so to speak!"

"Only then am I qualified to enter the Land of Samsara and serve in management!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror was well-informed and knew that the universe she opened was also a modern society, so there was nothing she couldn't understand about Brother Qian Chen's words.

So she nodded and said: "Yes!"

Brother Qian Chen continued: "If I want to get the job, I have to sign a contract first. The content of this contract is that I have to sell myself!"

"In name!" the Western Kunlun Mirror emphasized.

Brother Qian Chen pointed at the Land of Samsara and then at himself: "Then wouldn't I be selling myself?"

The Western Kunlun Mirror was noncommittal: "If you want to put it that way, to be a Lord of Samsara, you have to sell yourself first!"

Brother Qian Chen waved his sleeves angrily: "You are just coveting me, you are just drooling over my body, you are despicable! I suspected you Lords of Samsara from the beginning, wanting to trick me out of my pearl. Now it's out in the open! You just want to trick me into working for the Land of Samsara. No pearl, and I'd rather die!"

"Pfft!" the Western Kunlun Mirror said disdainfully: "As if anyone cares!"

"Your exchange price is 30 million morality points, right! Redeeming yourself would only cost 300 million morality points. If you're so cheap, it shows that even if you become a Lord of Samsara, you probably won't be of much use!"

"I can send reincarnators to travel through the cosmos, and even shift the light of the universe, sending them to the past and future of the cosmos. The Creation Cauldron can create all kinds of heavenly treasures, magic treasures, elixirs, and even Innate Ancestral Qi, possessing everything. The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder True Armor and the Great Sun Jin Zhong are unparalleled in killing power, and can suppress ordinary Dao Lords with a flip of the hand. The World-Extinguishing Great Grinding Disc of Clear and Turbid can grind all matter into primordial energy, grinding away everything!"

"The Supreme Yin-Yin Yang Shan can open up Yin and Yang, divide clear and turbid, refine all primordial energy into Yin and Yang energy, and can also reorganize Yin and Yang energy into all matter!"

"The Twelfth-Grade Jin Lian can deliver the souls of the dead, open up a Buddha land, and refine merit and wish power!"

"What can you do?" The Western Kunlun Mirror summoned words that pierced the heart.

Brother Qian Chen's face turned slightly pale, and he clutched his chest, unable to say a word in rebuttal. In his heart, he recalled the evaluation made by some plague-bringing Lord of Samsara in the past: "The Supreme Dao Dust Pearl is an Innate Spirit Treasure! It has no offensive power, no protective wonders, cannot suppress a sect, and cannot destroy the world. It is a treasure for enlightenment, symbolizing the Supreme Dao lineage. However, its use for users outside the Supreme Dao lineage is limited, and its wonders for enlightenment do not seem to be outstanding either. Therefore, it is rated in the cosmos that although this treasure has a high status, its wonders are weak."

"Like the Heavenly Emperor Authority, it is a treasure of symbolism."

"Qian Zhuzhu! The Land of Samsara is willing to accept you, actually, out of respect for the Supreme Dao Ancestor."

"The Land of Samsara has perfect functions; it's the same whether you are there or not!"

"When you entered the Land of Samsara, did you see an ancient bronze door, carved with the past and future of the cosmos, the majestic Heavenly Court, the deep Nine Heavens, the roars of gods, and the struggles of demons... The spirit treasure that sits in the Land of Samsara in the current Heavenly Court is the Primordial Yang Emperor Seal, the Heavenly Emperor Authority; there is also the Jade Emperor's Heavenly Emperor Sword, and the Master Sima Ziwei Emperor's Star Map. The Nine Heavens also has the Nine Heavens Demon Ancestor's grinding disc and the Blood Sea Demon Ancestor's demon sword in the Land of Samsara."

"Even the Ancient Divine Dao has the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder True Armor!"

"The West Western Kunlun Immortal Dao lineage has me, the Western Kunlun Mirror, suppressing this place on behalf of the Wang Mu of the West!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror said sincerely: "Did you also see the picture at the very top of the bronze door, of the Supreme Dao Ancestor picking up the Dao Dust Pearl? The reason it is engraved on the bronze door is that during the last Dharma assembly before the Supreme Dao Ancestor merged with the Dao, the Dao Ancestor held your Dao Dust Pearl and discussed the Dao with all the sect leaders, and the great beings gathered at this assembly to jointly open the Land of Samsara."

"Because of this reason, everyone is willing to accept you into the Land of Samsara. To put it bluntly! Qian Zhuzhu, you are just a facade!"

Brother Qian Chen's face turned pale, and he trembled with anger. In the hot weather, he was covered in cold sweat, his hands and feet were cold, and he stiffened his neck and said: "Can this world get any better! What do you want me, the Dao Dust Pearl, to do to satisfy you..."

"Did the Supreme Dao Ancestor cut me out to make me work?"

"If you want work, go find the Eight Trigrams Furnace and the Yin-Yin Yang Shan! When I was born, the Supreme Dao Ancestor had already worked hard for me! Without the Dao Ancestor's hard work, could I exist? I may not be of much use... but it shows that the Dao Ancestor, in his old age, intended for me to be born as a leader!"

"To be your leader!"

"If I were of any use, it would be a disrespect to the Dao Ancestor."

"Think about it, the Supreme Dao Ancestor only cut me out before merging with the Dao! The Buddha, such a great being, praised my wisdom and called me the Mani Pearl! The Eight Trigrams Furnace and the Yin-Yin Yang Shan are spirit treasures used by the Supreme Dao Ancestor to refine pills and fan the flames; they are tools created by the Dao Ancestor for convenience. And by the time it got to me, the Dao Ancestor was about to merge with the Dao! Omniscient and omnipotent, like the Heavenly Dao, what other tools would he need?"

Brother Qian Chen said with heartache: "Therefore, he cut out the noble and pure me! Representing the Dao Ancestor, representing the Supreme, representing the Heavenly Dao! I am an idol set up by the Dao Ancestor! Have you ever seen an idol that has to work?"

"Are you not satisfied?"

"The most precious things, the things you see mortals worship, are useless things. This is the nobility of uselessness, the nobility of the Dao."

The Western Kunlun Mirror was confused by what he said, as if she had detached from the wise spirit that traversed the timeline and returned to the ignorant loli state, subconsciously nodding: "That makes sense! Refining a spirit treasure as purely useless as you, in a sense, really represents that the Supreme Dao Ancestor no longer needs spirit treasures! Your origin can be called noble!"

"However, aren't you a tool spirit treasure used to seal the inner demon?"

"Nonsense!" Brother Qian Chen cleared his throat and said: "That is the Dao Ancestor entrusting me with the most important task! It is proof of my status as the eldest brother among the Three Treasures of the Supreme!"

"My task is so arduous, my status is so lofty, am I not the heaven-ordained Lord of Samsara? Invite me into the Land of Samsara, and whenever the Lord of Samsara has an edict, I will stamp it for you—'As per the Supreme Edict!' Representing the recognition of the Heavenly Dao!"

"The Land of Samsara can then be renamed the Great Luo Heaven, overriding any Heavenly Court or Nine Heavens, and have the legitimacy of acting on behalf of Heaven!"

"Oh!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror carried three parts of contempt and said disdainfully: "You want to be our master!"

Seeing that the Western Kunlun Mirror was not fooled, Brother Qian Chen, feeling that he could not get any support among the Lords of Samsara, spread his hands and lay flat: "Anyway, working is impossible! I have already shed my shell and become a living being to cultivate. If I send my main body into the Land of Samsara, wouldn't I be under your control? I am free by nature, why bind myself?"

"You, you just want to enjoy the benefits of the Lord of Samsara and are unwilling to bear the duty of operating the Land of Samsara."

The Western Kunlun Mirror saw through Brother Qian Chen's little scheme at a glance.

Brother Qian Chen laughed: "It's fun to freeload for a while, and it's always fun to freeload. Since the Land of Samsara was opened by you veterans, even if a latecomer like me can be a Lord of Samsara, I'm afraid I won't have any power and will instead be under your control."

"Just looking at the price the Land of Samsara paid to buy me off, I know that Yin-Yin Yang Shan fellow looks down on me quite a bit!"

"I, the Dao Dust Pearl, was born from the Dao Ancestor, and my origin is noble. How can I be subordinate to others?"

Brother Qian Chen said confidently: "If this Lord of Samsara can be an aid to my Dao path, that would be for the best. But if there are some benefits but the constraints are greater, then discard it like a worn-out shoe! You have been the Lord of Samsara for so many years, haven't you also failed to break out of your original shell and attain a higher realm beyond the Innate Spirit Treasure? It shows that for a level like yours, this Lord of Samsara is already useless. To go further, you still have to get rid of it!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror curled her lips: "You are quite smart!"

"By the way! That Yin-Yin Yang Shan fellow is the master in the Land of Samsara, where is my second brother, the Eight Trigrams Furnace?"

Brother Qian Chen asked curiously.

"The Eight Trigrams Furnace is not in the Land of Samsara. In the past, it followed the Daoist Venerable of Xuandu. Now it should be in the Taiqing Eight Views Palace, sitting in some corner of the cosmos! The Supreme Eight Trigrams Furnace can refine all things and create great worlds. In one furnace, not only can it refine Nine-Turn Golden Pills that even the Creation Cauldron cannot refine, but it can even refine living beings, bloodlines, and the membranes of heaven and earth. If it could be invited into the Land of Samsara, it could complete the biggest flaw of the Land of Samsara—arbitrarily creating worlds! There is a possibility that it could be honored as the leader of our Lords of Samsara!"

"However, the Creation Cauldron doesn't really want to pull it in..."

The Western Kunlun Mirror's words faintly revealed the little thoughts of the spirit treasures in the Land of Samsara, showing that these Lords of Samsara were not perfectly seamless and flawless among themselves!

"Since you don't want to be the Lord of Samsara and are unwilling to have your main body trapped in the Land of Samsara, I won't try to persuade you anymore. But since we are old friends, since you are hanging around in my Land of Samsara, it wouldn't be good to let you be at the mercy of other spirit treasures like those ordinary reincarnators. How about this! I will grant you some authority; below the Lord of Samsara, there are still other cultivators who are different from ordinary reincarnators."

"Spirit treasures like the Yin-Yin Yang Shan, the World-Extinguishing Great Grinding Disc of Clear and Turbid, and the Twelfth-Grade Jin Lian all suppress the luck of a sect and are spirit treasures worshipped by the sect."

"And those who use the sect-suppressing spirit treasures to master a portion of the authority of the Land of Samsara are the sect masters and Supreme Elders of the major sects. They can also influence a portion of the Land of Samsara and control some authority."

"Such are the Samsara Walkers! Such as the current Jade Emperor, Master Sima Ziwei Emperor, the master of Doushuai Palace, Zhang Zhang Tian Shi of Zhang Tian Shi Palace, the Nine Heavens Dao Demon Lord, the Blood Sea Dao Sect Master, and many other sect masters and holy masters of holy lands."

"I can be your Samsara Walker!"

Brother Qian Chen's eyes lit up.

"You want to refine me? Be my master?"

The Western Kunlun Mirror gave a light hum.

"Sigh!" Brother Qian Chen said politely: "We are all Innate Spirit Treasures, why talk about masters? Fellow Daoist, you must be lonely in this universe. Why not come out into the world with me and experience the red dust? If I have any achievements in the future, I can help you break out of your original shell and reincarnate to cultivate!"

"Okay!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror agreed immediately. Brother Qian Chen was overjoyed, never expecting that it would be so easy to trick the Western Kunlun Mirror!

"We are all of the spirit treasure lineage. My mistress left me behind and went to the ancient era alone. When the Western Kunlun Great World and the Wang Mu of the West's kingdom had not yet been conquered by the Immortal Qin, I was also held by the Saintess of Yaochi. Your identity is extraordinary; being my Mirror-Holding Saintess is not bad!"

Brother Qian Chen was happy at first, then keenly realized something: "Wait, what do you mean by Mirror-Holding Saintess?"

"It means the next Wang Mu of the West? The Yaochi lineage has always been led by women. To refine the Western Kunlun Mirror, one must be a woman. You are transformed from the Supreme Spirit Light, so your identity is sufficient! Even if the mistress knows, she will likely permit it. So as long as you reincarnate once more and become a woman, I will let you refine me and inherit the Yaochi Holy Land."

The Western Kunlun Mirror's light fell on Brother Qian Chen, looking at him with eyes as clear as a woman's, making him feel cold all over, with cold sweat slightly soaking him.

Brother Qian Chen laughed dryly and hurriedly changed the subject: "Haha... this poor Daoist wants to inherit the Supreme Louguan Dao lineage, so it wouldn't be good to inherit the Wang Mu of the West's inheritance. Let's not mention this matter!"

"Oh!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror's tone was slightly disappointed: "What a pity! You have a connection with the Guanghan Palace. The founder of their Guanghan Palace was once a female immortal under the Wang Mu of the West and had received the Immortality Medicine bestowed by the mistress. Therefore, the Guanghan Palace lineage also inherits the Yaochi Dao lineage."

"In the past, the Guanghan Feng Xianzi was one of the candidates for the Yaochi Saintess. Speaking of which, you are also a person destined by the mistress!"

Brother Qian Chen felt even colder in his heart and hurriedly interrupted: "Ah haha... it seems this poor Daoist is indeed not destined! Western Kunlun, what do you think of my companion?"

"How can a direct lineage of the Three Pure Ones be a Yaochi Saintess?" The Western Kunlun Mirror was disdainful.

"I'm talking about that Ning Ning Shimei Ning who comes from a loose cultivation background. She has also cultivated the Ice Soul Cold Light and can form the Guanghan Core at any time." Brother Qian Chen pointed Ning Ning Qingchen out to the Western Kunlun Mirror.

"If she forms a First-Grade Guanghan Ice Soul Core and wins the name of this generation's Guanghan Feng Xianzi, she can indeed be tested by me. However, she is not you; she is not Innate Spirit Light, nor does she have the foundation bestowed by the Supreme Dao Ancestor. So, she just has a qualification!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror shook slightly and shot a mirror light into Ning Ning Qingchen's brow.

Ning Ning Qingchen only saw a ray of immortal light fall toward her, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye, feeling confused and curious.

Brother Qian Chen heard the Western Kunlun Mirror say over there: "Alright! When she attains the Yang Spirit realm and attains the position of Guanghan Feng Xianzi, she will have the opportunity to start the mission of inheriting Yaochi."

"In the Land of Samsara, I will secretly test her. If she passes my three tests, she can take charge of the position of Yaochi Saintess and master a portion of my main body's power. When she reaches the Primordial Spirit realm, she can become the official Yaochi Saintess and be qualified to refine me!"

"As for you? Dao Dust Pearl, since you can't be a Samsara Walker, then be a Samsara Messenger!"

"A Samsara Messenger masters the authority of the Land of Samsara in a great world. Like your Earth Immortal Realm, the direct lineage of the Three Pure Ones can inherit a portion of the authority left by the great beings who created the Land of Samsara; this is the Samsara Messenger! You are now the master of the Supreme Louguan Dao, so you have this qualification!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror dropped a wisp of mirror light, imprinted it on Brother Qian Chen's palm, turned it into a Samsara brand, and said to him: "When you return to the Land of Samsara, you can use this to start the mission to promote your Samsara authority."

"The mission I have opened for you this time can only be completed by you alone, and with my brand, you can start higher-level Samsara missions, going to the past or future worlds! Avoiding the karma of this time!"

Brother Qian Chen held his palm, looked up at the Western Kunlun Mirror, and nodded: "Fellow Daoist, let's begin!"

The Western Kunlun Mirror let out a long sigh and sighed: "Let's go! Let's go! You said that trace of demonic thought is the Supreme Heart Demon, which makes me feel uneasy. This time, using your trace of demonic nature to open up the Nine Heavens can be considered compensation! You must put in the effort..."

"That goes without saying!"

Brother Qian Chen walked into the Western Kunlun Mirror light, his voice faint: "I am even more afraid of this demonic nature escaping than you are, how could I sit idly by..."
