Chapter 502 Dotting in the Eyes (1/2)

He did not esteem nor regret because of this. He understood but he did not agree with Guan Longzi. After all, this was his own choice.

Regarding their states, Guan Longzi was definitely above Daoism land immortals. To reach Tian Xianjing, it was not impossible to be done if he wanted to live for another few thousand years. As a matter of fact, it was already very difficult to encounter natural death as his cultivation level already reached the level of a land immortal. This had nothing to do with the strength of power but their abilities to surmount the restraint of mundanity. Even the Book of Life and Death could only use certain special means to induce the deaths of land immortals.

Because Shen Lian had yet to interact with the land immortals of Netherworld, he could only roughly understand from Guan Longzi. He guessed that it could be relevant to the land immortals' three biggest Trials of Dao.

Qing Xuan daoist sect's Earth and Star Great Way rules and the Netherworld had significant differences. Although the trial of Dao was challenging, it would never be as terrifying as the Netherworld. According to Guan Longzi, since the foundation of Da Xia, the amount of cultivators who could actually reach Tian Xianjing and Buddha Jing from Di Xianjing was never more than fifty. There was not even one land immortal who could live since foundation of Da Xia to present. The difficulty to reach Tian Xianjing from the Netherworld was clear to see.

Back in the past, for those that had attained Tian Xianjing, some might already have found the way out of the Netherworld and moved to another world. There might also be some who had always been hiding in the Netherworld and had not been through reborn. Just like there was a rumour about a senior monk by the blood-red sea who had already achieved The Kṣitigarbha Techniques which was ranked highest in the world. His great mind had proved the state of Mahasattva which was comparable to Taiyi from Daoism.

There had always been the saying that it was easy to attain Dao but difficult to preserve Dao. However, when it had reached the stage of Mahasattva and Taiyi, then there would be no reversal of state of Dao but only defending your own Dao and it was ranked the highest among the world's sentient beings.

There was a rumour about this senior monk who would always use his big mana to convert the resentful spirits in blood-red sea. However, due to the fact that the resentment in the world would flow in the direction to the blood-red sea, hence even with Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva's boundless mana, it still could not clear up the blood-red sea. Therefore, the effort that the senior monk had put in actually went down the drain.

Shen Lian knew the story about this senior monk and he was determined to go to the blood-red Asura sea in the future. The thought of having to witness a living Mahasattva had aroused him.

All these thoughts happened like the lightning, they did not leave any track in his heart. When Shen Lian made his move, all the changes in the chess game were instantly being held back.

Shen Lian said, ”my friend, you've lost.”

Guan Longzi swept the chessboard and everything instantly scattered. This sweep was like a flying celestial, there was no sign of it and it actually concealed from Shen Lian's premonition. Although Guan Longzi's speed was not fast and Shen Lian could stop it from happening, he did not do so. One with sincerity had the ability to predict, and Guan Longzi's premonition was before him.

On the other hand, Lei Jing who had been in silence for a long time had already gotten up one moment ago. She had completely witnessed everything that happened between Shen Lian and Guan Longzi. Her haggard looks could not conceal her satisfaction deep in her eyes. She walked slowly to them and said, ”Mr. Guan Longzi, I can remember clearly about the chess game. Remember your promise since you've lost.”

Guan Longzi spoke while smiling, ”you teacher and disciple team up to bully me. Goodbye.”

He stood up and left, as simply as the flowing water.

Shen Lian silently looked at this disciple while sizing her up. Compared to before, the expression in her eyes had become so much deeper that even Qi cultivators who had profound cultivation experience would feel embarrassed meeting her.

Shen Lian had even seen an unmeasurable vital force which originated from her bloodline. It was filled with ancientness, maturity, stalwartness and vastness.

Lei Jing stood quietly in front of Shen Lian. It instinctively felt like there was a high morality master manner which originated from the inheritance of bloodline. Naturally, it had caused earthshaking changes in her qualities.

She was no longer the soft girl but the Lei Jing who was the descendant with both Youhu and Xiahou's bloodline.

Shen Lian sighed and said, ”although I can predict a lot of things, I've underestimated your Xia Clan bloodline's extraordinary gift. The things that Qi cultivators can only understand after spending up to hundred of years on it, you can actually get it within such a short period of time.”

Lei Jing stared at this man right in front of her, her admiration for this man never faded at all although she was already different from before.

She had finally come to her realisation. It was not the realisation of her bloodline's power, but the realisation deep within her soul that had brought her enormous spiritual force and the Great Way rules.
