Chapter 153 - The Birth of a Paper Effigy Of The Heaven Immortal Realm (1/2)
Twelve years in advance…
It’s probably intentional, isn’t it?
The Sect Leader and the few elders who knew about this matter must have been messing with me on purpose, right?
In the beginning, the person who received the news about the Three Sects’ Meet was actually the Sect Leader, Daoist Wuyou.
Li Changshou secretly observed that a few days ago, a Cloud-Piercing Spiritual Sword flew through the air. The Sect Leader gathered a few elders for a discussion.
Due to the fact that he had been monitoring the Immortal Downpour Peak, Li Changshou had also… monitored the matters in the sect.
However, he pa.s.sively investigated using the Wind Speech Incantation. The news that he could hear was that they were gathering the disciples at the Hundred Mortal Hall to discuss…
No matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was just a “pre-departure” concentrated discussion.
No matter how he thought about it, the entire process from gathering the disciples to reprimanding them to setting off, would not exceed two to three years at most.
Didn’t they just gather the disciples to make them read the sect rules and to warn the disciples to follow the rules and not go out and embarra.s.s themselves…
Aren’t they afraid that someone would forget about his warning later since he gave it twelve years in advance?
How long had it been since the last disciple meeting of the Dragon Palace?
Why is it brought forward this time!?!
“Forget it.
Li Changshou had calculated all kinds of things but he had miscalculated the depth of the human heart.
He thought that the Sect Leader and Elder in the sect would place a lot of importance on the Three Sects’ Meet. After all, the Immortal Du Sect only barely qualified to partic.i.p.ate.
However, Li Changshou did not expect that they would take it that seriously! Li Changshou was shocked! Li Changshou lay on the straw bed. His mind slowly calmed down and he began to quickly find a solution.
This accident was just a small setback in life.
There was no way that he would be able to achieve a smooth-sailing journey in his path towards Zenith Heaven.
After Jiu Wu and Youqin Xuanya left, Ling’e stood by the side and endured for a long time. She almost bit her lips, but in the end, she could not help but cover her mouth and laugh… Li Changshou glanced at her. Ling’e immediately retracted her smile and put on a pitiful look. Her eyes were filled with pity.
Ling’e whispered, “Senior Brother… I feel sorry for you.”
Li Changshou calmly sent a voice transmission. “Go and cultivate. I really want to change my strategy and let you lie here.”
“Excuse me! Farewell! Call me if you need anything!”
Ling’e clasped her hands and hurriedly left the straw hut. She covered her mouth and chuckled. Then, she floated back into her straw hut like the wind.
It was really not easy for her to see her senior brother suffer a setback!
She had to continue with the act.
Li Changshou forced himself to lie on the bed for three years before he got up and returned to the Pill Chamber. He then began to ponder over the method of incarnation.
In an event like the Three Sects’ Meet, there was actually a certain amount of safety. There would be many big shots from the Dao Sects, and the main conflict was mainly between Jie School and Chan School.
The Immortal Du Sect was just going to be a bystander…
However, that was the place where karma would gather in the Primordial World twelve years later!
The mere touch of a big shot would cause a series of future events…
Li Changshou no longer needed the other experts from the three sects to remember him.
He had already made a connection with the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du. With the mission given by the Grand Pure One, he only needed to persist in the eight-word approach of ‘staying calm without doing anything and avoiding trouble’. His future would be stable!
At that meet, a few of the twelve Golden Immortals of Chan School should appear.
On the other hand, some inner and outer sect disciples might appear in the Middle Continent.
The purpose of that conference was to resolve the increasing conflicts between the three sects and make the Dao Sect more prosperous.
The reason that Li Changshou wanted to avoid it was because he had long seen the huge karma that might appear during the meet…
It was not an exaggeration to say that Li Changshou had seen far more than any expert below the Saint!
The Three Sects’ Meet was aimed at tracing the roots of the sect, recalling the bad memories, and reminiscing the sweet memories. It would allow the three sects to temporarily put aside their previous conflicts and restrain themselves. They would each have their own territory to develop and take in disciples to preach the Dao. The Three Sects would welcome a more prosperous situation.
Then, the three sects would expand and threaten the stability of the world. The Heavenly Dao would be preparing the Limitless Death Tribulation…
Wouldn’t that bring about the Great G.o.d-Conferment Tribulation?
As for the Great G.o.d-Conferment Tribulation, Li Changshou had already found a backing. There was no need for him to interfere in that matter.
Therefore, Li Changshou had first modified the Qi-Calming Turtle Breathing Mantra thrice over the years. He had deduced the cultivation technique to the point that it was almost flawless!
He had put in plenty of effort to pretend to be sick!
Who knew…
Forget it, there is no point in mentioning it.
There are still nine years before the opening of the Three Sects’ Meet. I have to make a decision now. Should I go or not? This is a rather serious question.
Li Changshou naturally did not stay idle for the past three years.
A portion of paper effigies was busy with making money and was building the “safe house” outside the door.
A portion of the paper effigies was changing their defenses at the edge of the South Ocean. They were prepared to deal with the Western Sect, the dragon race, and General Dongmu.
There definitely wouldn’t be a delay in cultivation.
In addition to cultivation, Li Changshou had spent the past three years on the method of deducting for his incarnation.
“By borrowing the mystical ability bestowed by the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du, I can perfect the paper effigies.”
It was not easy to walk that path. It was very difficult to cultivate the mystical abilities of
Changshou’s previous tricks. However, as long as Li Changshou’s thoughts could be realized, the paper effigy would undergo a qualitative change!
Li Changshou had a principle.
To be safe, the paper effigy must not have any consciousness. It must remain purely as a Dharma treasure with mystical abilities.
It was impossible for Li Changshou to leave any hidden danger around him…
In that aspect, what inspired Li Changshou was actually the cla.s.sic ” television series” that he had watched many times in his previous life—’My Bald Monk Of A Master Is Clearly Very Weak, But He Is Popular With Women’.
There was a cla.s.sic segment of it. It was the scene of the White Bone Spirit teasing Brother and the stone monkey raising his stick in anger and shame.
At that time, the White Bone Demoness kept changing her physical body. She used demonic techniques to kill mortals…
