A passing traveler through the heavens

Ji Lin secluded himself in a cave to cultivate, surrounded by layers of complex and exquisite formations.

In this tranquil and secluded space, time seemed to lose its original measure and become meaningless. He was completely immersed in the profound and mysterious world of the cultivation technique, forgetting all the disturbances of the outside world.

However, time in the outside world did not stand still at all, and thirty days passed by quietly.

In this small cave filled with rich spiritual energy, Ji Lin focused intently on cultivating all the techniques he had learned to perfection.

Now, he is no longer just full of theoretical knowledge; the surging power within him is eager to be tested in actual combat to verify the results of this arduous training.

At this moment, Ji Lin's cultivation level had steadily reached the Golden Immortal level.

But this was not the limit of his cultivation. Rather, it was a deliberate effort made in accordance with the earnest teachings of Master Yuding and the guidance of the "True Explanation of the Dao".

After all, blindly pursuing rapid advancement in cultivation level is more harmful than beneficial to the long path of cultivation.

Although he was only at the Golden Immortal realm, Ji Lin's combat power was beyond what ordinary people could imagine, enough to rival a Grand Luo Golden Immortal.

Moreover, Ji Lin's cultivation of the Five Elements Primordial Chaos Technique has also made a major breakthrough. The five light and shadow stones have perfectly merged with his own five elements bloodline, becoming inseparable.

At this moment, his body seemed to contain an endless treasure trove of the five elements' spiritual power, capable of autonomously and continuously nurturing the five elements' spiritual energy, and also able to keenly and efficiently absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world for his own use.

As his understanding of the power of the Five Elements deepened, Ji Lin, with the help of the supreme wisdom of the "General Outline of the Chan Sect" and the "True Explanation of the Chan Dao," successfully mastered many powerful spells such as the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, the Thirty-Six Transformations of the Heavenly Gang, and the Seventy-Two Transformations of the Earthly Fiends. His strength was now vastly different from before, achieving a qualitative leap.

When Ji Lin finally finished this long and arduous training, he casually put away the array he had carefully set up and put it into the system space.

The moment he stepped out of the cave, the long-unseen sunlight stung his eyes like needles. He squinted slightly, adjusted his gaze for a moment, and then stretched his slightly stiff body.

He quickly gathered a dazzling ball of magical power in his palm and, without hesitation, slammed it into the cave behind him.

In an instant, the earth shook violently, and with a deafening roar, the cave, unable to withstand the impact, collapsed instantly and was completely buried by countless tumbling rocks.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Lin flashed into the clouds and sped towards the Heavenly Court.

After all, we've already arrived in the Great Primordial World, so how can we not first go and see the famous Heavenly Court?

The Heavenly Court, this sacred hall that stands between the first and thirty-third heavens of the thirty-six heavens, is like a giant pavilion floating in the sky, looking down on the mortal world below.

Its layout extends outward in a radial pattern from the core area, dividing it into different functional levels.

At the very center is the palace of the Jade Emperor and many other great beings. One layer outwards is the office where the celestial officials handle the affairs of the Heavenly Court. Further out are the residences of the various deities, each with its own unique characteristics.

The outermost layer is filled with guarded areas and various defensive facilities, forming an indestructible barrier that protects the peace of the Heavenly Court.

The architecture of the Heavenly Court is extremely luxurious, with gold and yellow as the main colors to highlight nobility. The red walls and golden tiles complement each other, and the flying eaves and brackets are exquisite. The carved beams and painted rafters exude solemnity and magnificence.

The palace is tall and majestic, with an extremely spacious interior. Thick stone pillars reach to the sky and firmly support the huge roof, while the floor is paved with warm and smooth jade.

The palaces built of crystal are even more dreamlike, with the crystals reflecting a wonderful array of colors under the interplay of sunlight and celestial light.

Inside the palace, a dazzling array of rare treasures, such as luminous pearls, jade, and coral, adorned the entire space like a fairyland.

In the Heavenly Court, pavilions and towers are scattered like stars, each with a different shape. Some tower into the clouds, and when you climb to the top floor, you can take in the magnificent panoramic view of the Heavenly Court.

Some are built beside clear lake waters, with pavilions and terraces reflecting each other in the water, creating a beautiful picture.

Among these pavilions and terraces, winding corridors connect every corner, like an invisible net that strings together the beauty of the heavenly court.

The Heavenly Court is surrounded by celestial clouds year-round, these clouds are ever-changing, and countless spiritual trees and exotic flowers are scattered throughout every inch of the Heavenly Court's land.

The tall and majestic peach tree is the best among them. It blooms once every three thousand years and bears fruit only once every three thousand years. The fruit contains endless spiritual power, and eating it can prolong life. It is a treasure that countless gods dream of.

There are also various exotic flowers and rare herbs that bloom all year round, their rich fragrance permeating the entire heavenly realm, making people intoxicated, as if they were in a paradise on earth.

The area is dotted with crystal-clear lakes and babbling springs. The water in the lakes and the springs are filled with spiritual liquids rich in spiritual energy, which have miraculous effects such as healing injuries and improving cultivation. They are indispensable spiritual objects in the Heavenly Court.

Each entrance to the Heavenly Court is marked by a colossal gate, a magnificent and imposing structure meticulously crafted from incredibly precious materials.

The door is carved with lifelike mythical beasts and mysterious runes, radiating powerful magical energy.

In a hidden corner of the Heavenly Court, there are also mysterious star formations. These formations resonate with the stars in the sky and can continuously draw on the power of the stars to provide strong energy support for the Heavenly Court, which is an important guarantee for the stability of the Heavenly Court.

Ji Lin flew all the way and finally arrived at the most famous scenic spot in Heaven – the South Heavenly Gate.

However, as soon as he appeared, he was blocked by two gatekeepers. "Who goes there? No one is allowed to trespass at the South Heavenly Gate." The two gatekeepers held weapons and blocked Ji Lin with vigilant expressions.

"Just passing by, just passing by." Faced with the goalkeeper's obstruction, Ji Lin had no choice but to retreat temporarily.

He found a secluded spot, cast an invisibility spell, and silently approached the South Heavenly Gate again. This time, he successfully passed through the guards' defenses.

As I passed by a heavenly soldier, I overheard one of them say, "These days, any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to come to the Heavenly Court."

Upon hearing this, Ji Lin reached out and slapped the other person's head hard.

The soldier turned around abruptly, thinking it was a prank by his companion. The two immediately started arguing, while Ji Lin secretly chuckled to himself, successfully infiltrating the Heavenly Court.

Ji Lin quickly wandered around the Heavenly Court, and before he knew it, he had lost his way and ended up at the Heavenly Court's Demon-Slaying Platform.

Ji Lin looked at the large crowd gathered on the Heavenly Court's Demon-Slaying Platform and became curious. After a while, two heavenly soldiers carried a man over, who looked like a prisoner from the Heavenly Court.

Upon closer inspection, Ji Lin exclaimed, "Good heavens, this prisoner looks like Yang Jian!"

This puzzled Ji Lin. How could Yang Jian have been captured by the Heavenly Court? If Yang Jian was here, then where was Yang Chan? Ji Lin decided to wait and see.

A quarter of an hour later, the sound of execution rang out, and a guillotine fell from the sky. Just as it was about to strike Yang Jian's head, Ji Lin appeared and rescued Yang Jian from under the guillotine.

At the same time, a circular magical artifact blocked the guillotine, preventing it from falling. Instantly, the entire Demon-Slaying Platform erupted in an uproar.
