“Then, I gave him the method to save his wife and daughter.”
“The death of his wife was because of a Soul Continuation Flower, and that same flower is key to reviving his wife and daughter.”
“Now that Xuntian Xu has hope, there’s no need for life-and-death struggles.
Accumulating enough spiritual merits can turn his wife and daughter into spirit bodies, which, for them, is already the best possible outcome.”
Ningning Mu’s eyes were filled with admiration as she praised telepathically, “That’s just like you!
Always finding a way to help them.”
Li Ping’an gave an embarrassed smile.
This was but a special case, after all.
There are many untimely deaths in this world, and the Xu family’s calamity had a chance for alleviation mainly because of Xu Sheng’s influence.
It wasn’t much of an achievement.
Reincarnation has not yet emerged between heaven and earth.
That would be a true accomplishment…
Li Ping’an quickly suppressed these thoughts, daring not to dwell on them, and lightly scratched Ningning Mu’s palm with his finger.
Ningning Mu sat up straight, withdrawing her right hand swiftly.
She made a face at Li Ping’an, then turned her head to join Zhu Ling’er and Gu Qingcheng in their talk about heavenly punishment.
Li Ping’an felt great joy in his Dao heart.
But then, he thought of the scenes he had witnessed earlier and became reflective.
What was the root cause of the tragedy that befell Xuntian Xu’s family?
The cause certainly lay with the Demon Race’s evil deeds, but to a large extent, it was also due to Xuntian Xu’s own lack of strength.
These were disasters that could have been avoided with more prudence.
Li Ping’an closed his eyes and concentrated, beginning to study the Shape-Shifting Technique.
Perhaps it was so he could peacefully advance his relationship with his priest sister further, or perhaps it was due to the empathy he felt for Xuntian Xu’s tragic plight.
Li Ping’an made up his mind to retreat to his sect for a period of time.
He would refuse any opportunity that came his way, focusing solely on improving his own Dao Realm.
‘Hmm, the key point is, before becoming a Heavenly Immortal with the ability to protect myself, I shouldn’t have children too rashly.’
As Li Ping’an thought this, a peal of thunder suddenly echoed through heaven and earth, and a commotion arose from outside.
“He’s become a Golden Immortal!”
“The ancestral master has become a Golden Immortal!
The ancestral master has become a Golden Immortal!”
Cheers erupted from all directions.
An endless stream of Spiritual Energy surged from all corners, rushing toward the direction of Wei Yuan Tower.
It seemed as if a golden, glittering ladder had appeared in the heavens, leading to a giant hammer shining at its end with endless light.
That was, the Great Dao of Elder Xu Sheng!
Li Ping’an suddenly let out a light call, his hands swiftly forming seals.
Because it was his first time using the Shape-Shifting Technique, and he was still a bit unpracticed, it took him two tries to successfully activate his own Mana.
His body transformed into a Jade Pendant, flying into Ningning Mu’s sleeve.
“Junior Sister, hurry!
Have her send me back to the sect!
I can’t stay here a moment longer!”
Ningning Mu, with her clever mind, immediately realized the ‘huge trouble’ her senior brother would face.
She called out to Gu Qingcheng and Zhu Ling’er, and the three disciples stood up together, heading towards the back door along the corner of the great hall.
No sooner had they left the side hall than a group of elderly Immortals with white hair leaped in through the main entrance.
“Where is the Enlightened Pre-Immortal?
“Come give a lecture!
Elder Ping’an, please come give a lecture!”
Chaotic commotion erupted within Yuan Sect.
Soon after, hundreds of Jade Talismans were seen soaring away from the surroundings of Yuan Sect, a spectacular sight.
Li Ping’an, through the Merge True Realm, enlightened a Golden Immortal, and with this battle, he made a name for himself!
The Wanyun Enlightenment Stone was about to become famously known throughout the East Continent!
The Immortals of Sea Watch Sect had already gathered over six hundred people, but the dozen or so leading Heavenly Immortal elders couldn’t help but exchange glances, uncertainty in their eyes.
They had witnessed today’s events with their own eyes.
Though the process was a bit convoluted, indeed it was Li Ping’an who had done much, and then Xu Sheng, who had been stuck at the bottleneck of Heavenly Immortal Great Perfection, had made a breakthrough over the chasm of longevity.
The two were directly related!
“Should we not offend this Great Enlightenment Immortal?
“Pre-immortal, Great Enlightenment Pre-immortal; he is just at Merge True Realm.”
If he becomes an Immortal, won’t he be able to enlighten those at the Golden Immortal Peak?”
Right at that moment, a beam of golden light rose up from below, accompanied by a hearty laugh that shook the heavens and earth.
Elder Xu Sheng, bathed in a gentle golden light, stood proudly with his hands behind his back, in front of the Sea Watch Sect Immortals.
Could you perhaps give this old man some face and refrain from causing a dispute in my Yuan Sect?
The Immortals of Sea Watch Sect looked at each other, the leading Heavenly Immortal elders sighed, saluted Xu Sheng, and began to leave.
From this day on, with a Golden Immortal presiding over Yuan Sect, it had transformed completely and could not be humiliated at will.
What made Sea Watch Sect even more uneasy was Xu Sheng, the master of Artifact Refining.
Xu Sheng had extensive friendships, having old ties with almost all the Golden Immortal ancestors of the various East Continent sects, and now that he had stepped into the realm of the Longevity Golden Immortal, he would surely resume his interactions with those Golden Immortal ancestors.
Truly an Immortal of prestige!
Yuan Sect was about to flourish for the first time!
And as for Wanyun Sect…
Xu Sheng was practically considered the fourth ‘outer’ Golden Immortal of Wanyun Sect!
The cooperation between Wanyun Sect and Yuan Sect was now unstoppable, and the influence resulting from their collaboration would undoubtedly cause a greater impact on the existing Artifact Refining systems of various East Continent towns and cities.
Reflecting on this, the Sea Watch Sect Immortals felt even more stifled in their Dao hearts.
And far away, they could still hear Xu Sheng shouting throughout the heavens:
Where is my little Ping’an?
I want to gift you a hundred Spiritual Treasures!
Ah, no, wrong, I don’t have a hundred!
I want to give you so many Spiritual Treasures!
“Linghua was right; all is well with Ping’an, all is well with Ping’an!
had already run away.
