Chapter 54 Visitors from Another World
Chapter 54 Visitors from Another World
"boom--"
At the foot of the desolate mountain, the once shaky and impoverished old Taoist priest underwent a miraculous transformation, shedding his mortal form and becoming a saint in an instant.
The tattered Taoist robe transformed into a purple immortal robe flowing with Daoist runes, his white hair turned jet black, and his face became majestic and holy, impossible to look directly at.
Auspicious purple clouds drift from the east for 30,000 miles, golden lotuses spring up from the earth, and heavenly flowers fall in profusion!
An aura of saintly power, capable of utterly subjugating this entire world, descended upon this desolate mountain wilderness.
"I am Tongtian!"
These six short words were like a thunderbolt from the heavens, causing the void within a hundred miles to tremble.
Lin Yuan stood still, his pupils suddenly contracting.
Even though he had already guessed the old man's identity, when a living Heavenly Saint revealed his true form before him, the oppressive feeling that came from the depths of his soul still almost made him breathless.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Cold sweat poured down his back, soaking through his dark robe.
But Lin Yuan knew that it was precisely at times like these that he couldn't afford to show the slightest weakness.
Life is like a play, it all depends on acting!
Now that the persona has been established, even if it means kneeling, we have to push this "fanatic believer" drama to its extreme.
Lin Yuan gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressing his instinctive trembling, and suddenly raised his head.
There was no fear in those eyes; instead, they blazed with a frenzy, like a pilgrim seeing a god.
"Sage...you truly are a sage who has reached the heavens!"
Lin Yuan's voice was trembling.
This wasn't an act; it was a genuine physiological reaction to the oppression of the Holy Might. But paired with his expression at that moment, it was absolutely perfect.
With a thud, he slammed his knees onto the gravel-strewn ground, dug his hands into the soil, and laughed loudly, tears welling in his eyes.
"If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening."
"This disciple has truly been able to witness the true face of the Sage in this lifetime; I die without regret, I die without regret!"
Looking at the young man in front of him, who was so excited that he was almost incoherent, the smile on the Tongtian Sect Leader's lips grew even wider.
Such a sincere heart for the Dao, such a pure will to pursue the Dao, is even rarer than innate spiritual treasures in this vast and chaotic world.
"Good child, get up."
With a slight flick of his sleeves, the Tongtian Sect Leader gently lifted Lin Yuan from the ground with a gentle aura of the Great Dao.
However, just when Lin Yuan thought his flawless acting had completely stabilized the situation...
The eyes of the Tongtian Sect Leader, which could pierce through all the heavens and myriad worlds, suddenly flashed with a sharp, penetrating light.
"You young man, you certainly have a silver tongue."
The Tongtian Sect Leader's voice remained gentle, but his next words sent a chill down Lin Yuan's spine.
"However, it seems that your sincere sincerity hides a secret that even the heavens dare not reveal."
The Master of the Heavens smiled slightly, palms facing upwards, and slowly opened his hand.
"Buzz—"
A fragmented jade disc, imbued with the laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos and radiating a soft white light, appeared out of thin air in his palm.
The Jade Disc of Creation!
The supreme artifact used by Hongjun Daozu to deduce all things in the primordial world and to control the cause and effect of the Heavenly Dao!
Lin Yuan only glanced at it before feeling a sharp pain in his soul, and quickly looked away.
"Senior... what do you mean by that?"
Lin Yuan forced himself to remain calm.
The Master of Heaven did not rush to answer, but instead gently touched the Jade Disc of Creation with his finger.
"Splash—"
A phantom light screen unfolded in front of the two of them.
The images flowed within the light screen.
It was a small world without gods and Buddhas, only mortals and their weapons.
A mortal emperor with overwhelming power unified the nine provinces and then dispatched a fleet of warships to sea in search of elixirs of immortality.
Deep within the palace's secret treasury, an ancient, fragmented scroll lay quietly in a jade box.
The Shangqing Qi-Inducing Chapter!
"This fragment is a random piece of chess that I casually left in that mortal realm when I was dreaming of the Three Thousand Worlds."
The gaze of the Tongtian Sect Leader was like two peerless immortal swords, piercing straight into the depths of Lin Yuan's soul.
"The celestial light emanating from you originates from the same source as the fragments of that realm."
"You are not a being born from this primordial world."
"You are a visitor from another world who has crossed the barriers between realms!"
boom!
Lin Yuan's mind went blank for a moment, as if ten thousand ancient beasts were trampling over him.
Her underwear was exposed!
He had calculated everything, including the Chan Sect's pursuit and the Dragon Clan's revenge.
But he never expected that the cultivation technique he "borrowed" for free from the military think tank of the main world Blue Star would actually originate from the original work left by the Tongtian Sect Master.
Moreover, the Tongtian Sect Leader even borrowed the Creation Jade Disc and, by following the cause and effect of this technique, managed to find out his origins as a "visitor from another world".
run?
Running in front of a sage who holds the Jade Disc of Creation?
That's a joke!
Cold sweat trickled down Lin Yuan's forehead again.
But under the pressure of life and death, Lin Yuan's strong mental fortitude from his two lifetimes, and his heart that had been tempered into an unyielding rock by the Great Tribulation of Godhood, unleashed astonishing potential.
Panic?
What's the rush!
Now that their identity as visitors from another world has been exposed, let's turn that identity into our biggest bargaining chip!
Lin Yuan neither panicked and begged for mercy, nor did he try to make excuses.
Instead, he took a deep breath, and his previously tense body completely relaxed.
"A sage's discerning eye is like a torch, able to see even the smallest detail."
"Indeed, this disciple is not from this world."
Lin Yuan chuckled self-deprecatingly, his voice hoarse.
"In the world I was born into, there were no gods or Buddhas, no path to immortality. Human history was interrupted, and all the ancient myths and legends were lost."
"There are only mortals there who fight each other for petty gains, only ants struggling in the cycle of birth, aging, sickness, and death."
Lin Yuan suddenly raised his head, a terrifying light flashing in his eyes.
"But why?!"
Why should we be confined to such barren lands, like frogs in a well, for our entire lives?
"On that day, this unknown wasteland, rated as 'SSS+ level', was forcibly descended upon our world."
"Countless people are terrified; countless people regard this place as a death trap, a hellish arena where even the S-rank supreme expert leading the team wouldn't survive more than three minutes!"
Lin Yuan's tone grew increasingly impassioned as he stepped forward, speaking directly to his heart.
"But this disciple is not afraid!"
"Among the tattered ancient books of the royal family, I accidentally glimpsed a few words of this volume of the Shangqing Yinqi Chapter."
"The doctrine of 'seizing a glimmer of hope' was like a lightning bolt in the night, cleaving through the fog in the disciple's heart!"
"This disciple resolutely crossed the boundary and was forcibly thrown into this great world. At the start, I was just a worthless F-rank ordinary crow, devoid of even true qi, subjected to endless ridicule and walking on thin ice!"
At this point, Lin Yuan deliberately released a faint trace of his aura from when he was an ordinary crow.
"In order to obtain the Shangqing True Path, I, in the body of a bird, endured wind and dew in the deep mountains and forests, and narrowly escaped death under the sword light of the Golden Immortal of the Chan Sect."
"At Chen Tang Pass, risking being crushed by the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas and the powerful figures of Jade Void Palace, I forcibly froze time and space, solely to carry out the Heaven-defying act of our Jie Sect: 'Refusing to accept fate, refusing to submit to Heaven!'"
Lin Yuan stood ramrod straight, like a spear piercing the sky.
"This disciple has crossed realms and experienced life and death, seeking neither immortality nor wealth and glory."
"I only ask to sit on this futon on Golden Turtle Island and hear the Master preach a true righteous path!"
"If the Master believes that I am unworthy to cultivate this Shangqing Immortal Technique because of my otherworldly origins, then today, I beg the Master to withdraw my cultivation and turn me into a handful of yellow earth at the foot of this desolate mountain."
"This disciple has absolutely no complaints!!!"
His voice was booming, every word dripping with emotion!
These words, half true and half false, encapsulate all the hardships and triumphs Lin Yuan has experienced along the way.
He cleverly used his identity as a "visitor from another world" to transform an unlucky guy who was forced to travel to another world into a "perfect martyr" who was willing to cross the universe and defy fate in order to pursue the truth of the Jie Sect!
silence.
The wind at the foot of the mountain seemed to have stopped blowing.
The Tongtian Sect Leader stood still, and a tremendous storm surged within his deep, saintly eyes.
Shocked!
An unparalleled and breathtaking experience!
He had initially thought the kid was just a lucky one who had gotten a stroke of good fortune.
But who could have imagined that the story behind it was so tragic, and so perfectly aligned with his Daoist path to the heavens!
A little guy born in a mythical, spiritually barren land.
At the start, I was just a low-level cannon fodder crow.
Facing those lofty Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, and the Four Seas Dragon Kings who regarded mortals as ants.
He did not back down, nor did he accept his fate.
Instead, relying on a fragment of a book, he fought his way out of nowhere.
At Chentang Pass, they defied fate and intercepted the Great Master Taiyi!
Isn't this exactly what the Tongtian Sect Leader has been searching for and trying to prove to the entire prehistoric world—"education for all" and "human will can conquer nature"?!
This kid's Dao heart and his experiences are simply a supreme treasure tailor-made for his Jie Sect!
"Good! Good! Good!"
The Master of Heaven said "good" three times, and his eyes even felt a little hot.
He took a step forward and personally pulled Lin Yuan up from the ground, placing his hands on Lin Yuan's shoulders.
"So what if we cross boundaries?"
"So what if it's a crow that follows?"
The Tongtian Sect Leader looked up to the sky and roared, his voice shaking the entire world.
"Yuanshi talks to me about origins and destiny every day."
"Today, I will show him how a disciple of my Jie Sect, with this insignificant body, can defy the heavens and seize that sliver of life!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader stared intently at Lin Yuan, his eyes filled with affection.
"What's your name?"
"Reporting to Master, this disciple is Lin Yuan!"
Lin Yuan seized the opportunity and even changed the way he addressed her.
"What a brilliant Lin Yuan!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader burst into laughter, waving his hand with an air of domineering power.
"From this day forward, you are my ninth personally instructed disciple, Tongtian!"
"What Jade Void Palace? What Four Seas Dragon Clan?"
"As long as you stand within the walls of my Jie Sect, even if the sky falls, I will hold it up for you!"
