Chapter 102 - You Don’t Understand the Sea God At All! (1/2)
He returned to Little Qiong Peak and entered the Pill Chamber.
Li Changshou used his immortal senses to admire the attic defensive array formation that he had built for Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu.
Indeed, if he had not left behind a “back door”, he would not have been able to see through the layers of light walls…
After that incident, Little Aunt-Master’s safety in the sect had improved significantly.
Although he had spent a lot of precious materials…
the value of life was far beyond what those treasures could measure!
He started counting the “friends” whom he was involved with, such as his Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu, Uncle-Master Jiu Wu, Elder Wan Linyun… and his half-toxic Junior Sister.
The number of “friends” he had now had exceeded his expectations.
He had to be careful in the future, in case he got involved in some strange things because he had too many friends.
He then checked the array formations of Little Qiong Peak and observed the situations of the various peaks in the sect.
After sensing the Dao runes that his junior sister revealed during her cultivation, he secretly glanced at his master who was cultivating hard in the straw hut…
After making sure that everything was normal, Li Changshou activated the array formations outside the Pill Chamber. He left a wisp of his conscious behind to guard his main body, devoting most of it to the paper effigies.
The most important thing to do now was to sever the karma between him and the Sea G.o.d of the South Ocean. He could not let the South Ocean Sea G.o.d continue growing and expanding tyrannically…
In the s.p.a.ce of the underground rock veins, he slowly opened his eyes. Li Changshou checked the Sensing Stone on the paper doll’s body and the simple array formations around it.
Very good, no one noticed… After stabilizing the paper effigy’s aura, Li Changshou used an escape technique while he was underground. He went from 10,000 feet deep to 1,000 feet deep.
He had carefully thought about it before deciding on the depth of 1,000 feet underground At this depth, the Earth Escape technique worked rather quickly. It would not cause him to leave behind any aura disturbances on the ground or hit any hard treasure mineral veins while escaping…
Even if he really b.u.mped into any, it would be possible for him to strike a fortune because of that…
At that moment, Li Changshou was in the region of the border between the East Continent and the South Continent. He pa.s.sed by some of the demons’ territories and quickly approached the mortal world of the South Continent.
In order to increase his safety, Li Changshou chose the path that he had taken previously…
He scanned his surroundings with his immortal senses and saw mountains and rivers that were greeting him. They came and went in a hurry.
With a thought, he saw the familiar scenes again.
For example, the battles between the Qi Refinement cultivators who often appeared, as well as the battles between the mountain demons and spirits that were not rare.
The spectacular battle at that spot finally stopped. The city walls were stained red.
Li Changshou chanced upon the traces of his uncle and aunt-in-law who had chosen to pursue love and freedom, at the edge of a forest.
His uncle was still around, but his aunt-in-law was nowhere to be found. There was another young man nearby who was chopping wood and igniting some fire…
This was probably the mundaneness of the mortal world.
After using Earth Escape for two days, Li Changshou found a hidden corner under a large city in the mortal world where he replaced the paper effigy who was traveling.
The immortal power of the paper effigies could not be restored on its own. It was not worth it to waste one paper effigy’s combat power on the journey.
Li Changshou took another seven to eight days to get close to himself…
What does that mean!?!
The matter regarding the Sea G.o.d and the South Ocean Sect never had anything to do with me!
If he could return the merit of incense offerings and exchange them for the destruction of the South Ocean Sea G.o.d Sect without any consequences, Li Changshou would definitely agree.
The scale of the South Ocean Sea G.o.d Sect was not considered large at the moment. Most of the fishermen of the towns and villages located at the edge of the South Ocean consecrated the Sea G.o.d.
The first place Li Changshou chose to land on was the border of the South Sea Divine Sect. It was an ordinary town located on the plains.
There were about five to six thousand residents in that down. Many vendors were resting there and it was considered rather prosperous…
On the main road leading through the town, they could see some gentle “pa.s.sing beasts” like cows and horses. They were pulling some carriages with pa.s.sengers and goods.
A temple of the Sea G.o.d was built along the main road on the southern side of the town.

The incense in the temple was burning brightly. Most people who had gone out would go to offer incense and pray for peace upon returning home. After hiding in an empty corner and observing for a few hours, Li Changshou finally brought himself to come out of the ground and leave the forest…
At that moment, the appearance of the paper effigy was that of an old Daoist priest with white hair and white beard.
He was dressed in a grayish-white clean robe, with a Daoist band around his head and a horsetail whisk in his hands. When he walked, he looked like he was floating on the ground. He looked like an otherworldly expert who was filled with immortal Qi…
Li Changshou first strolled around the town where many mortals looked at him.
The place was considered a border region of the mortal world. The people there lived rather simple lives. Everyone did not see many Qi Refinement cultivators who had such an image. Their eyes were filled with curiosity.
Other than being curious, the villagers also showed their pa.s.sion.
When they pa.s.sed by the bun shop, a peddler delivered hot steamed buns.
When they walked past the teahouse, a young man ran to the lobby and greeted them with a cup of hot tea.
When she pa.s.sed by an elegant wooden building, a window was pushed open. A short stick that was supporting the window dropped by accident. The young lady behind the window covered her mouth and chuckled…
Li Changshou was nowhere to be seen. He walked slowly and approached the temple of the Sea G.o.d of the South Ocean.
The temple was not considered grand.
In fact, it was just a square courtyard. A ten-feet-tall stone statue was erected in the courtyard.
After entering the courtyard, Li Changshou looked up at the statue. Its face, body, and appearance were very similar to his own. He sighed in his heart.
