I am asking the Ancestor to ascend to heaven in the world of "Covering the Sky".

"break!"

The old man of the underworld spoke with difficulty, gathering the spiritual liquid within his body and concentrating all his power into his forehead, which was below his primordial spirit.

Suddenly, the old man's primordial spirit became enormous, even brimming with power when facing Ji Lingyun. But in the end, all of this was illusory; Ji Lingyun could crush him with just one hand.

"Heaven-Slaying Strike!"

A purple light flashed, and the old man's primordial spirit was suppressed, remaining unresponsive for a long time. Ji Lingyun coldly picked up the remaining half of his primordial spirit and returned the immortal golden Taoist's primordial spirit to its place.

After all this was done, the Old Man of the Underworld began to regret it. He looked at Ji Lingyun with a hint of helplessness and said, "Ji Lingyun, although we follow different paths, we have the same goal. Why don't we cooperate?"

"I'm different from you."

Ji Lingyun said with a cold face.

Everyone is anxious right now, not knowing what's going on.

Suddenly seeing Ji Lingyun emerge with the body of the Immortal Golden Daoist, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's finally okay."

The people from Heaven were talking on the side.

Then, his most powerful scroll unfolded, sealing the other half of the Netherworld Elder's primordial spirit inside.

Next, we just need to wait for Immortal Golden Daoist to wake up.

Ji Lingyun carefully put the scroll away. Just then, he heard the news that the Immortal Venerable wanted to see him.

The immortal venerable who came from the human race, after hearing about the things between him and the old man of the underworld, couldn't wait to see him.

Ji Lingyun was led there by the people from the Heavenly Court. Before they even got close, Ji Lingyun heard a stern and deep voice.

"You copied it wrong again! How can you make such a simple mistake!"

Ji Lingyun walked over and saw the immortal with long hair hanging down, disciplining a six or seven-year-old boy, his face quite gloomy.

Seeing this, Ji Lingyun smiled and stepped forward to persuade him, "He's just a child, it's normal that he can't remember."

When Hongwu Immortal saw Ji Lingyun arrive, he bowed to him and then pointed to the boy behind him, saying, "Daoist Ji, this is my youngest son, Honghu. I hope you can give him some guidance!"

At the enthusiastic invitation of Immortal Venerable Hongwu, Ji Lingyun naturally did not refuse. After nodding in agreement, he sat on a stone chair to the side and watched Hong Hu's cheeks bulge out like a little dumpling as he bent over copying.

"You are Ji Lingyun?"

Not long after Hongwu Immortal Venerable left, the little dumpling suddenly put down his brush and looked at Ji Lingyun with a curious expression.

Those eyes were just like Ling'er's, sparkling with innocence and purity, making one reluctant to harm them.

"Yes."

After Ji Lingyun nodded and finished speaking, Hong Hu moved closer to him and continued to ask questions in a childish voice.

"They all say you're amazing and very talented."

"They flatter you."

Ji Lingyun spoke calmly, giving people a feeling of being low-key yet unapproachable.

After talking for a while, Hong Hu found Ji Lingyun easy to get along with, so he stopped interrogating Ji Lingyun and instead pulled him aside to talk about the gossip that had recently happened in the Heavenly Court.

Hong Hu knew everything, from the alchemy immortal who ruined his alchemy furnace to the fairy who had just ascended to heaven but secretly descended to the mortal world because of lingering old feelings.

Ji Lingyun listened quietly to him, and seeing that the paper in front of him was completely blank, she couldn't help but shake her head and say, "If you don't finish these soon, you'll get scolded again."

The fairy standing nearby was fanning them. Hearing Ji Lingyun say this, she smiled and nodded in agreement: "Your Excellency, if you continue like this, the Immortal Venerable might lock you up one day."

"Ah... I understand."

Hong Hu was still a child and didn't have many tricks up his sleeve. He didn't dare to talk to Ji Lingyun anymore and quickly buried himself in his work.

Ji Lingyun sat next to him, giving him instructions.

At the same time, the awakening of the Immortal Golden Daoist also excited many people in the Heavenly Court.

Chapter 524 Talent is Predestined

You should know that Immortal Golden Daoist almost died at the hands of Old Man Mingling, if Ji Lingyun hadn't arrived in time.

I fear that not only will Immortal Golden Daoist fail to cure the poison, but he will also lose his primordial spirit as a result.

After hearing about this, Immortal Golden Daoist said "good" three times in a row, and then fell into deep thought. Everyone guessed that he was troubled because he didn't know how to repay Ji Lingyun's favor.

Someone immediately stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.

"Don't worry, besides owing Ji Lingyun your life, you also owe him a favor! Oh, and the rest of us owe him a favor too!"

After the man finished speaking, Immortal Golden Daoist suddenly realized what was going on and immediately shook his head, both laughing and crying.

It's hard to say whether to call Ji Lingyun shrewd or righteous, since it's rare to see someone step in at a time like this.

Thinking of this, Immortal Golden Daoist felt that he should go and find Ji Lingyun to express his gratitude. Even if he couldn't repay the favor immediately, it was better than doing nothing at all.

After thinking about these things, Immortal Golden Daoist immediately inquired about Ji Lingyun's whereabouts and learned that he was with Hong Hu. He quickly got up and rushed over.

The fairies who came and went along the way all had peach blossoms on their faces and were talking in soft voices.

"I heard the peach orchard has reopened. I wonder if we'll be able to get some this time."

"As long as you please your master, you can have not only peaches of immortality, but also miraculous elixirs!"

Immortal Golden Daoist concealed his aura, not letting these fairies discover him, but after listening to what they said, he couldn't help but shake his head.

He immediately quickened his pace and rushed towards Hong Hu.

"Master Ji, why is your talent always superior to that of ordinary people? Can talent be cultivated with divine liquid?"

Hong Hu started asking Ji Lingyun questions again, his little head filled with even more questions than Ling'er's.

Ji Lingyun looked at him and said seriously, word by word, "Talent is given by the Heavenly Dao. It is all predetermined and cannot be changed."

After Ji Lingyun finished speaking, Hong Hu fell into deep thought.

Immortal Golden Daoist, standing at the doorway, overheard their conversation. He laughed heartily as he looked at Ji Lingyun and Hong Hu and said, "Daoist Ji, I've long admired you!"

"Immortal Golden Daoist, you're awake."

Ji Lingyun returned the greeting with her hands clasped together. As she watched the Immortal Golden Daoist walk in with a rosy complexion, she couldn't help but marvel at how quickly the Immortal Golden Daoist had recovered.

If it were anyone else, they wouldn't be able to stabilize their spirit without resting for at least half a month.

"I am cured now, thanks to the antidote you brought. You also saved my life. I have no way to repay your life-saving grace. I only hope that one day I, the Immortal Golden Daoist, can repay you."

Immortal Golden Daoist meant what he said, and Ji Lingyun naturally knew it, so she simply asked him to sit down and play chess with her.

The chessboard in front of me is made of the Milky Way and floods, and its outer shell is made of special glass.

Parts of the Milky Way and floods clashed and crashed within it, making the chessboard pattern incredibly beautiful.

I'll use white.

After the Immortal Golden Daoist finished speaking, Ji Lingyun took the black chess pieces.

"you first."

After Ji Lingyun finished speaking, Immortal Golden Daoist placed the chess piece down.

Hong Hu watched from the sidelines as time passed by, and he grew sleepy. The game was still undecided, but both of them had very few pieces left.

The chessboard is almost entirely covered with chess pieces.

Seeing that he was sleepy, the fairy wanted to go to him, but Hong Hu pushed her away. He wanted to know who would win the chess game.

If he were a Daoist Immortal Gold, then he should be used to it.

Just when he thought Immortal Golden Daoist was about to win a great victory, Ji Lingyun curled the corners of his mouth and placed a black chess piece in his hand.

The chessboard layout has also changed; the white pieces have been captured, leaving the black pieces still on the board.

"Oh my God!"

Hong Hu was so shocked that he stood up abruptly, disregarding everything else, and looked at Ji Lingyun with amazement.

Hongwu Immortal Venerable had been watching from the doorway for a long time. When he saw his son in this state, he couldn't help but shake his head, step forward, press him back into his seat, and give him a look.

He gestured for Hung Hu to keep a low profile and not to provoke trouble.

Hong Hu understood and quickly lowered his head to sit down, but the amazement and envy in his eyes could not be concealed at all.

"My son has been rude."

Hongwu Immortal Venerable bowed slightly to Immortal Golden Daoist, looking utterly helpless.

But Immortal Golden Daoist waved his hand dismissively, looked at Hong Hu and then at Ji Lingyun, and suddenly laughed: "It really proves the saying, 'A worthy opponent is like a true friend in life, a rare find even in death!'"

After Xianjin Daoist finished speaking, Ji Lingyun stood up and looked at him modestly, saying, "Xianjin Daoist, you flatter me."

"No need to be so polite with me. You are my savior, and I am grateful to you beyond measure."

After Xianjin Daoren finished speaking, he placed a golden feather on the table and looked at Ji Lingyun, saying, "This is an invitation to the Peach Banquet. I have to go out that day and will not be able to go. Daoren Ji, please go in my place."

After the Immortal Golden Daoist finished speaking, envy reappeared on Hong Hu's face. He looked at Ji Lingyun with a face full of envy and jealousy.

Being invited to the Peach Banquet is the dream of all the immortals in Heaven, but apart from a few disdainful immortals, the peaches at the Peach Banquet are something they have always wanted.

"Then I shall respectfully accept your offer!"
