Chapter 010: The Divine Concentration and Perception of Objects

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Chenxiang helped Grandpa sit down and, feeling anxious, interjected, "Aunt Baihua, please tell us quickly, has the Star Lord bestowed any good methods?"

Yao Ji smiled and said: "That child from the Hundred Flowers is also doing this for your sake. The lifespan of a celestial being is indeed too long, and she fears that Yan Chang, as he grows older, may not have enough time to refine the elixir and become an immortal before falling into the cycle of reincarnation. That is why she wishes to take advantage of the joyous occasion of the Star Lord's six hundredth birthday to make her request. By the time they return, Yan Chang should at least be able to gain some additional blessings and longevity, right?"

However, Third Sister, you actually allowed others to witness my embarrassment and disgrace so casually? A table full of laughter, disdainful glances, and arbitrary mockery, mixed with a hint of pity. After thousands of years as siblings, have you never tried to understand me, your second brother?

The panicked voices of Chenxiang and Xiaoyu echoed outside the house, startling San Sheng Mu. She comfortingly patted Liu Yanchang's shoulder, who was still in a daze, and rushed out the door

He knows the reason, but is unwilling to think about it, even unwilling to remember the sword wound that extends deep from his right chest to his back

With the cave dwelling that the people of Huashan have built for you nearing completion, it is truly a double joy arriving at your doorstep

There is only one month left, and success has finally been achieved

Chenxiang leaped out of bed, staring blankly towards the outside of the tent

Yao Ji Qi Dao: "Indeed, this child Yan Chang has a good heart, and he has accumulated good karma in his daily life, but could it be that the Star Lord has had too much to drink on his birthday? Is he really frightened by the merits of a mere mortal?"

The Three Holy Mothers approached and said, "Great benefactor? Sister Baihua, what are you talking about?"

A peculiar glow emanated from his body, appearing both blurred and as if it were slowly rising.

On this day, a sudden shout echoed in my heart, and I felt as if my body had been abruptly severed.

Seeing the Flower Fairy, he shook his head and could only hesitantly say: "Could it be... is it a hundred years? But how could this be possible!"

In the subtle smile, I once again sank my mind into tranquility, embarking on yet another journey of refinement

The one-armed man visits him almost twice a month, being quite astonished by his progress, yet also extremely eager.

Do you really think that a mother is just an ordinary elder in the mortal realm? Is it only the joy of having her children around her day and night that brings her happiness? Do not forget that she is also in the realm of immortals

The Hundred Flower Fairy extended a finger and said: "Among all the immortals, only the Earth Immortal ensures peace in one region and is the easiest to accumulate merit. Do you know how many years of merit Mr. Liu's total can equate to that of a qualified Earth Immortal?"

The method of the Three Holy Mothers attempted to retract, yet it was entirely ineffective, as the lamp spun lightly, exuding an extraordinary sense of joy.

A large axe struck heavily on the ground, its form solemn and dignified, radiating a captivating golden light. It was indeed the Celestial Axe that had been severed for no reason after splitting the mountains to rescue its mother.

Without further ado, Chenxiang took his mother's hand and led her towards his room

After finishing her words, she made a funny face, which caused the Three Holy Mothers, who was focused on combing her hair, to laugh out loud

Perhaps it was the sudden severe injury from some time ago that stirred the compassion of the third sister? After a full three years, on the day of family reunion yesterday, they finally remembered this useless person.

Upon reaching the front of the house, he pointed to the ground and called out: "Mother, come and see, the divine axe... the divine axe has actually taken up on its own..."

The alternation of light and darkness continues endlessly, and he is unaware of how many days have passed. He forces himself to forget the disturbances of the body, and his mind sinks into the pure realm of the primordial clarity.

The divine gaze erupted with silver radiance, enveloping the entire body.

The Flower Fairy shook her head and said: "Really, you don't know either? Just now, I went to ask the God of Fortune and Longevity to grant Mr. Liu a method for extending his life. Out of kindness, he readily agreed. As a result... as a result, guess what happened?"

However...! ... But upon investigation, the Star Lord was so frightened that he even threw away the Book of Heavenly Secrets! Truly, San Sheng Mu, you were not present; the Fortune and Prosperity Star Lord has probably never been that scared in his entire life!

A family was filled with joy, and no one noticed that in the shadowy corner of the hall, a person was watching their genuine happiness, a faint yet contented smile appearing on their lips

Since the body is already in a state of ruin, there is no need to retain the protective magic any longer

Three years ago, the divine axe that had been split open on Mount Hua unexpectedly detached itself, rising automatically from the altar where it was enshrined. The two halves of the axe trembled lightly, resembling a mournful cry, yet also seeming to fervently anticipate something.

When will this lingering and struggling life come to an end? Half a year, Sanmei, Erge will shield you from the storm one last time. I am tired, truly too tired... As for the road ahead, you and Chenxiang should walk on with your own strength.

Unless someone uses their primordial spirit to check, or if that monkey possesses its fiery eyes, otherwise, by relying on the invisibility of the primordial spirit and remaining silently in place, even with the magical power of Chen Xiang, it would be impossible to detect.

In the air three feet above, within a silvery halo, a man identical to the one below is floating, slowly breathing in and out

A few days ago, the Emperor Brother sent someone with a message, requesting Mother to promptly visit the Lingxiao Palace to pay her respects, in order to reorganize the court and temporarily take over the leadership of the female immortals of the Three Realms in place of the Queen Mother who is currently on a journey to experience the mortal world

Yang Jian gazed at the figures of Yao Ji and the Three Holy Mothers engaged in cheerful conversation, his thoughts drifting towards some deliberately forgotten past, momentarily lost in contemplation

The Three Holy Mothers smiled and said: "There are still five days left. After five days, do not spread it too widely; it will just be a small gathering among a few trusted celestial beings."

The Three Holy Mothers carefully styled their hair and spoke softly

The words were not finished, suddenly stopping

The condition of the body is deteriorating increasingly, with a persistent high fever and uncontrollable cold sweats

Especially now, even breathing has become particularly difficult

He gazed blankly at the Three Holy Mothers, hoping that his mother, with her vast knowledge, could understand the reason why the divine axe continued to operate on its own without being under his control

After a lengthy conversation, the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers took her leave, agreeing to meet again at Mount Hua in five days

Exhaling the last breath of turbid air, all of the true essence converges into the newly formed primordial spirit

While speaking, a colorful cloud descended from the sky, and the Flower Fairy walked over with Liu Yanchang

At that moment, in the main courtyard of the Liu residence, the Three Holy Mothers and Chen Xiang's chamber suddenly radiated a brilliant light, illuminating half of the sky as if it were daytime

Sister San, in any case, this can only indicate two things: First, Mr. Liu is an unparalleled great benefactor throughout history, and your insight is truly remarkable; Second, even if one does not cultivate elixirs and cannot ascend to immortality, with so many merits, Mr. Liu can not only achieve longevity but also be impervious to water and fire, and ward off all harms.

How come they have been gone for so long without returning

Chen Xiang stepped forward to grasp the axe handle, pulling it back with all his strength, only to feel as if his hand bore a weight exceeding one thousand pounds, just as when he first found it in Kunlun with Ding Xiang; how could he possibly lift it?

Gradually retracting my consciousness, I find myself once again in this familiar dim and dilapidated little room

Mother, Grandmother

Although I have long since become accustomed to it, ever since I narrowly escaped death after retrieving my magical powers last time, I have been experiencing recurring fevers. Today, having not consumed a single drop of water, I feel even worse

Once again, a strong light swept across, and a thunderous sound erupted from the incense chamber, causing the Bao Lian Lamp to suddenly radiate an overwhelming brilliance, rendering the room nearly unseeable.

Thinking that those subordinates would not dare to truly let themselves die of thirst or hunger, they would eventually come to inquire, Yang Jian could not help but let out a bitter laugh

At that time, Yan Chang and I will move there, after all, my planning location is there, and we cannot continue to live in Liu Family Village

Would you also like to move there together at that time

The head is pounding intensely, the mouth is dry and parched, even more so than in the past few days

The Hundred Flowers Fairy shook her head and said: "If it were only a hundred years of merit as an Earth Immortal, although the Lord of Fortune and Prosperity might be astonished, he would not go so far as to discard the Heavenly Mechanism Register! To be frank, it takes a thousand years, a single Earth Immortal must serve faithfully for a thousand years, and moreover, everything must be handled in accordance with the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, only then is it possible to accumulate all the merits that Mr. Liu currently possesses!"

Xiao Yu playfully bowed to Yao Ji and called out: "Greetings, Grandmother. Xiao Yu respectfully wishes Grandmother a return to the Heavenly Court, to infuriate that stingy Queen Mother!"

Inserting a hairpin, the high bun further accentuates elegance and opulence

The familiar法诀 flows through my heart, gathering the essence of the sun and moon in my divine gaze, as the vaguely formed元婴 rapidly grows with this essence.

By the way, speaking of Sister Baihua, your father should be back soon, right? Today is the birthday of the God of Fortune and Prosperity. Sister really is something, insisting on bringing Yan Chang to seek blessings and longevity from him, without considering whether it would be difficult for the deity.

The Three Holy Mothers were astonished and said, "Ten years?"

Is it you? The rebirth of the primordial spirit, the restoration of magical power, you actually sensed it too? However, the Bao Lian Deng, it is the magical artifact of the Third Sister, why must you turn around and express concern for me, this useless person? Is it that in your eyes, my magical power is the true kindness you recognize?

The process of refining the elixir has long become akin to torture, but last night was wasted in that absurd farce, and today, under no circumstances, can I afford to delay any further

The Three Holy Mothers were already stunned, and even Yaoji murmured, "This... this is impossible! Even if my son-in-law were to be kind to everyone as soon as he landed, he would still lack the ability to accumulate a thousand years of merit as an earth immortal! Is it possible that the celestial record of the Star Lord is malfunctioning?"

The Flower Fairy shook her head and said: "Wrong, too little, guess again!"

In three months, Dan Chengqi must reforge his primordial spirit within this final three-month period

The Fairy of a Hundred Flowers smiled and said, "Do not be anxious, let me finish my words.

Xiao Yu asked, "Grandma, didn't Mother used to like combing her hair? Besides you, who else helped her with it?"

How much longer can this body hold out? Yang Jian sighed inwardly, once again channeling his true energy to reassemble his fragmented meridians and concentrate his spirit.

Liu Yanchang was as usual, but Baihua wore a look of astonishment. Upon entering, she exclaimed: "San Sheng Mu, I truly misjudged! It turns out that Mr. Liu from your family is such a great benefactor. No wonder you fell head over heels for him back then!"

Yes, living together... ? ... Is it just living together like this? ? But as long as they are happy, that is good enough.

Yang Jian slowly opened his eyes, his expression neither sad nor happy, but the discomfort that had been accumulating day by day, along with the painful and swollen injuries, could no longer affect him in the slightest

Yang Jian lay on the bed, his eyes tightly closed, as if in a deep slumber

Yesterday, I attended the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and today, the servants who attended to him have simply decided to be lazy and not bring any food or drink

Yao Ji smiled with relief and said: "No, Lian'er.

Liu Yanchang and the Three Holy Mothers assisted Yaoji in tidying up the miscellaneous items in preparation for the important event of visiting the Heavenly Court in a few days, while Chenxiang and Xiaoyu went off to play without further mention

The Flower Fairy smiled and said: "Don't think about it; even the God of Fortune and Prosperity does not know the truth of the matter, so it is pointless to ponder it."

He knows that he has a long way to go in order to strengthen his weakened primordial spirit to the point where it can endure such a life-and-death struggle within a month

The Three Holy Mothers could not help but cover her eyes with her hand. When she moved her hand away to look again, the light of the lamp slowly dimmed and fell to the ground, returning to its dull green appearance, devoid of any brilliance.

The hand of the Three Holy Mothers holding the comb stiffened. Yao Ji, observing this, gently patted the back of her hand and said: "Lian'er, do not dwell on it. No matter how he treated you in the past, people will always change. That wretched child, let us not mention him again in the future!"

The consciousness extended in all directions, and that long-lost clarity of insight made him almost forget the unbearable pain he was experiencing.

The Three Holy Mothers smiled and said: "It is much easier for immortals to accumulate merits than for ordinary people. My dear, you cannot possibly claim that my family member Yan Chang can match the merits of an earth immortal in a year, can you? I certainly do not believe that."

The sun sets and rises again, rises and sets again; although the days feel like years, Yang Jian has no time to spare.

The clear and serene moonlight spills onto the bed, just like yesterday's Mid-Autumn Festival

It is likely that the chill was caused by the servant being exposed to the cold while changing clothes before being taken to the banquet yesterday

Yaoji smiled as she looked into the mirror and praised, "Well done, Lian'er. I didn't expect you to help your mother style such a beautiful bun. I remember when you were little, you hated having your hair done the most. Every time I didn't have time to take care of it for you, you would cling to your..."

Chenxiang and Xiaoyu entered the room just in time to hear Yaohua's words

I will be going to the Heavenly Realm the day after tomorrow, and I fear that by the time your cave is completed, I will have no time to visit.

The young Chenxiang Xiaoyu did not think much of it, only saying: "Oh, is that so? Then how many more years can father extend his life?"

A sense of extreme familiarity washed over him, and he suddenly smiled with profound significance

The process of condensing the Qi into a pill is as easy as pie, thanks to the magical power retrieved from the silver jewelry

However, the Three Holy Mothers also looked puzzled, gazing at the divine axe, and gently furrowed their brows

Xing Jun said that if one wishes to attain longevity, one can extend life through virtuous deeds. He then opened his treasured book, the "Fulu Tianji Ce," to check how many virtuous deeds Mr. Liu had accumulated and how many more were needed to change his fate and prolong his life, so that he would have time to achieve enlightenment and ascend.

The Three Holy Mothers nodded in compliance, and Chen Xiang knew that the topic had once again turned to that person. Remembering his indifferent gaze, a wave of disgust washed over him, and he diverted the conversation, saying: "Mother, Aunt Baihua and the others all know that your cave dwelling will officially be completed in five days, and they are all clamoring to take a look. What do you think, should we prepare a bit in advance?"

At this moment, if any subordinates were to push the door open and enter, they would surely be so startled that they would turn around and flee

He wearily closed his eyes, enduring the pain as he once again summoned his internal energy

Start!

Gathering Qi and refining the elixir, nurturing warmth to transform the spirit, cultivating the spirit to unite with the Dao, revisiting the cultivation thresholds experienced thousands of years ago

A gentle breeze caressed the treetops, as Chen Xiang whispered sweet nothings to Xiao Yu, occasionally sharing a light-hearted laugh. In the distance, the melodious sound of the xiao mingled with soft singing, while the Three Holy Mothers played the xiao to accompany their husband. The Hundred Flowers Fairy and others gathered in a bamboo pavilion, chatting and laughing in celebration of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The entire Liu residence was enveloped in an atmosphere of peace and joy

Mother, Mother

In another room, the Three Holy Mothers were also astonished as they protected Liu Yanchang, and the宝莲灯, which had been rendered almost useless since the battle of Kunlun, now emitted an exceptionally bright light, floating at the ceiling.

Mother, the people of Huashan have voluntarily built the Holy Mother Palace for me for half a year, and it will be completed in five days.

Gazing at Liu Yanchang with a heart full of suspicion and scrutiny
