My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 85 Why did you provoke him?

Bai Chijing was not one to bully others or prey on the weak, so when faced with these two cultivators at the Outer Realm, he chose to reveal his identity to make them back down.

The two men, realizing they had the wrong "clients," immediately stopped bothering them.

Before they left, they said a polite word to Bai Chijing as usual, telling him not to hesitate to ask if he needed their help.

Bai Chijing casually asked Su Chengwu about it.

And then, these two actually knew.

As Bai Chijing had guessed, Su Chengwu had indeed come here to await his death.

When Bai Chijing found Su Chengwu, he discovered that this senior brother Su's condition had deteriorated to the extreme. His cultivation was extremely unstable, sometimes at the Outer Heaven Realm and sometimes at the Outer Manifestation Realm. Every time he reached the Outer Heaven Realm, his body would crack.

With just a cursory glance, one could see that Su Chengwu had no fewer than a hundred cracks on his body.

Su Chengwu is dying.

Sensing Bai Chijing's arrival, Su Chengwu slowly opened his eyes, and wisps of purplish-black aura spread out. Instantly, the figures standing or sitting around him, some deep in thought or pondering, also began to move, as if a main switch had been turned on.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Junior Brother Bai..." Su Chengwu said, and as he spoke, several more cracks appeared on his body.

The purplish-black aura emanating from it suddenly increased significantly.

The two times that "Jie Xiang Ge" summoned the Heavenly Lord had shattered Su Chengwu's outward appearance. If it weren't for the special nature of the fragment of "Xi Kui Lei Jing" (The Puppet Show Classic), he would have perished long ago.

After all, Su Chengwu had taken the elixir of immortality once, no matter what.

“Senior Brother Su is deeply devoted.” Bai Chijing looked at Su Chengwu with a meaningful and intriguing gaze, but said this calmly.

Although he wasn't the kind of person who was particularly good at interpersonal relationships, he could still manage to raise his emotional intelligence to some extent, given the principle of respecting the deceased.

After all, it's not appropriate to directly say that Su Chengwu is a love-obsessed person.

"Junior Brother Bai, kill me, and it will be your final tribulation. I only hope you can leave me with a whole corpse so that I can have a chance to try out the myths of this place." Su Chengwu looked at Bai Chijing's gaze and immediately understood Bai Chijing's intentions, so he said this directly.

Bai Chijing didn't necessarily want to find Su Chengwu; it was just that after he killed the little Taoist boy, the calamity energy that hadn't changed before suddenly affected Su Chengwu after a while.

Yes, it has an impact.

Although the aura of calamity seemed to be directed at Su Chengwu, Bai Chijing understood upon seeing Su Chengwu that Su Chengwu had been affected.

So why was Su Chengwu affected by the calamity energy?

Does he have any other major enemies?

Could it be Su Kongjing, the elder father of Su Chengwu?

Bai Chijing was somewhat puzzled. Although he did not intend to repay the debt, given the Su family's wealth, they would not hold a grudge against him over this matter.

"Teacher Su..."

Bai Chijing was about to speak when he suddenly realized something was wrong. Then, sword wheels appeared from his body, and layers of golden light almost dyed most of the sky above Suiyun Mountain.

This place was originally filled with deathly energy, but at this moment, Bai Chijing's Ten Thousand Swords Golden Light directly tore the deathly energy of this place to shreds.

In an instant, endless sunlight shone down.

The deathly energy settles and gathers into dark clouds, naturally preventing this place from seeing sunlight all year round.

Otherwise, the Myriad Yin Cave would not have been formed.

But at this moment, as thousands of rays of sunlight surged forth, the bodies that had only been shallowly buried suddenly began to emit plumes of white smoke, resembling roasted meat.

Those buried deep within the earth let out mournful howls.

Bai Chijing's Myriad Swords Formation not only destroyed the death energy in this place, but also completely destroyed the tomb-sealing formations that relied on the death energy.

What does it mean when gods fight and mortals suffer?
This is it.

Bai Chijing, at the seventh level of the Outer Realm, merely displaying his Myriad Swords Form was enough to shatter the deathly aura of this place. This wasn't due to the sheer power of the Myriad Swords Form itself, but rather the effect of his Inner Realm Illumination after surviving the five Inner Tribulations. Bai Chijing had originally created the First Lingjia Observation only to store his cultivation for future use, but after surviving two Outer Tribulations, this Inner Realm Illumination began to change.

As for the reason, he didn't know either.

Previously, he was too embarrassed to ask Ling Jia directly, and even now, although he has obtained the Kunpeng Immortal's "molted feather," he was still too embarrassed to ask about this feather directly back at Tu Jian Mountain.

It has to be postponed.

At this moment, as Bai Chijing's Myriad Swords Form continued to reveal its sharpness, the two figures who originally planned to come and go quietly could no longer hide.

Within the golden halo, two figures in white robes were forced out.

Both men appeared to be young, dressed identically in white robes and black shoes. While their appearances differed, what was more subtle was that their demeanor was exactly the same.

They are all very feminine.

Like the dead eunuchs in the palaces of the five great dynasties.

At this moment, the two men were forced out by Bai Chijing's overwhelming power of the Ten Thousand Swords Formation, and they were both somewhat angry. However, when they looked at Bai Chijing, they couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.

Without the Dao Lord's Shackles, neither of them would need to care about Bai Chijing, who was only at the Upper Realm of External Appearance. But with the Dao Lord's Shackles, things are completely different.

Then, one of the men in white robes with a feminine demeanor snorted coldly, looked down at Bai Chijing, and said condescendingly, "Mortal cultivators of the lower realm, we are celestial envoys from the heavens, ordered by the Jade Emperor of the Primordial Beginning of Heaven to capture the demon Su Chengwu of the upper realm and await his judgment!"

This white-robed man, with his effeminate demeanor, was arrogant, and his tone of voice was equally haughty.

However, they certainly have the right to be proud.

After all, they were celestial messengers. In the past, when the terrestrial immortals of various families were invited to a banquet, the first thing they did upon arrival was to give these celestial messengers benefits.

Those were just ordinary celestial messengers, but these two came from the Heavenly Palace!

Other ordinary celestial messengers would all call these two "little ancestors" upon seeing them.

The status of dog owners varies, and naturally, the status of their dogs also varies.

Upon hearing this, Bai Chijing was somewhat astonished. He never expected that Su Chengwu's cultivation of the incomplete "Puppet Show Scripture" would attract the attention of the heavens.

Are all the immortals in heaven so idle?

Or perhaps the celestial beings in heaven have always been watching over this mortal realm?
However, Bai Chijing thought about it again and felt it was only natural, since these five dynasties were related to the immortals' careers in heaven.

For example, three hundred years ago, the predecessor of the Great Qi Dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty, was overthrown overnight.

Isn't it because he messed with Zhou Yin, who was involved in the Immortal Realm?
This discovery made Bai Chijing realize what he needed to be careful about when he made moves in the future.

Then, Bai Chijing prepared to leave quietly.

Su Chengwu had already been noticed by the celestial beings, so he would never offend these two celestial messengers for Su Chengwu's sake. As for why he was being discreet, it was because he saw that these two looked like petty eunuchs.

However, the two immortal envoys were not happy that Bai Chijing wanted to leave.

Because Bai Chijing offended them but failed to offer satisfactory compensation. Keep in mind, they were forced to manifest in this mortal realm once!

“You mortal cultivator from the lower realm, you have offended us. What is your punishment?” Immediately, another man in white robes with a feminine demeanor spoke up and rebuked him.

Originally, they only intended to complete their task, since the Dao Lord's shackles were making them feel extremely uncomfortable.

Moreover, although they all created their own grotto-heavens, their respective grotto-heavens were in the sky.

This means that once a portion of their cultivation is stripped away, that portion cannot return to their own celestial abode and can only drift in this mortal realm.

If it weren't for these restrictions, the first thing they would do after descending to the mortal realm would definitely not be to find Su Chengwu, but rather to go and beg for alms from various immortal sects.

After all, even though they are called "Little Ancestors" by other immortals, the existence of "Little Ancestors" means that there are "Great Ancestors" and "Old Ancestors" above them!

Therefore, now that they have been forced to manifest and taken risks, they are naturally unwilling to return empty-handed.
