Chapter 1772
Immortal Traces 10
Leng Yubing felt something and knew that once he had converted Wen Ruyu, he would be able to achieve perfect merit and attain enlightenment.
However, Wen Ruyu was very stubborn, and despite Leng Rubing's repeated attempts to enlighten him, he remained obstinate.
After his family fell into ruin, Wen Ruyu went into business, but the business failed. He then became involved with a prostitute and relied on his lover to support him.
As a result, the prostitute he was having an affair with was driven to death by the madam.
Wen Ruyu took the matter to the government, but no one stood up for justice.
Wen Ruyu had no choice but to seek out Leng Yubing, since there was still a way out for her if she stayed with Leng Yubing.
However, this time it was Leng Yubing who was avoiding Wen Ruyu.
Leng Yubing said to Lian Chengbi, "This person still has worldly desires in his heart. Even if he becomes a monk, it is not out of genuine sincerity."
Lian Chengbi: "Judging from your expression, you must have a solution, right?"
Leng Yubing laughed: "Have you heard the legend of the Yellow Emperor's dream journey to the Kingdom of Huaxu?"
Lian Chengbi nodded. How could he not know someone so famous?
Leng Yubing: "I can emulate the immortals and guide Wen Ruyu's soul into a dream world I specially constructed for him, allowing him to live a long and unforgettable life within it..."
Lian Chengbi: "This is more like the dream Zhongli Quan had when he enlightened Lü Chunyang."
Leng Yubing: "...Yes."
Lian Chengbi was very interested in this technique. Although he had learned many esoteric arts, he did not know this kind of dream-like technique.
Leng Yubing was naturally generous with a spell and explained it to Lian Chengbi in detail.
After learning it, Lian Chengbi thought about how to use this "Yellow Millet Dream".
Several people waited on the road where Wen Ruyu was traveling.
Wen Ruyu was so destitute that he was like a beggar, and he didn't even have the money to stay at an inn, so he could only stay in a dilapidated temple.
Wen Ruyu, after all, knew some martial arts and could catch pheasants and rabbits.
He roasted a pheasant, ate his fill, lay down, and soon fell asleep.
In the dream, Wen Ruyu seemed to be the same noble young man who used to travel to the Imperial Library.
He rode a tall horse out for a spring outing, surrounded by birdsong and fragrant flowers, and with a constant stream of fine carriages and horses.
After walking for six or seven miles, the number of people and horses gradually dwindled until he was the only one left.
Wen Ruyu sensed something was wrong and was about to turn around when she saw a tall archway in front of her, soaring into the sky. It had painted red pillars and carved phoenix and dragon seals. In the center of the archway were four huge golden characters that read "Huaxu Kingdom Boundary".
Wen Ruyu had studied at home, so he had naturally read "Liezi: The Yellow Emperor": "(The Yellow Emperor) dreamed during his daytime nap that he was traveling in the country of Huaxu..."
Wen Ruyu: "Huaxu Kingdom? Is it really the Huaxu Kingdom from the Yellow Emperor's dream?"
He entered the Kingdom of Huaxu with a sense of wonder, and was later chosen by the King of Huaxu to be his son-in-law. He led the soldiers of Huaxu into battle, and enjoyed beautiful wives and concubines, high official positions and generous salaries...
Later, when he returned to the battlefield, he was captured by the enemy. He refused to surrender and was beheaded.
Wen Ruyu woke up with a start and realized that she was dreaming.
More than thirty years of wealth and honor were nothing but a dream.
It turns out that wealth and glory, as well as poverty and destitution, are all just empty dreams.
Wen Ruyu finally realized the truth, and Leng Yubing appeared in front of him.
Wen Ruyu immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Leng Yubing, calling him "Master".
Leng Yubing accepted Wen Ruyu's gift and became Wen Ruyu's apprentice.
Prior to this, Leng Yubing had taken on three apprentices.
He was destined to have six disciples, but Lian Chengbi became his friend instead of a disciple.
Afterwards, Leng Yubing helped Zou Yinglong and others impeach Yan Song, and finally succeeded. Fairy children and fairies came to welcome Leng Yubing to heaven.
Leng Yubing rode the blue phoenix and, led by a celestial official, soared straight to the ninth heaven.
Upon witnessing this scene, all of Liu Dong's memories of the primordial era resurfaced. He twitched the corner of his mouth.
Why do the gods and immortals of this world seem to enjoy vanity projects just like mortals?
That's too over-the-top!
I wonder what the difference is between this celestial palace in the nine heavens and the celestial palaces in other worlds?
What do the peaches in this world taste like?
Liu Tong tugged at Lian Chengbi's sleeve: "Let's go to heaven too!"
Lian Chengbi had already attained the cultivation level of a Celestial Immortal, and he had little reverence for the immortals and gods of this world.
Hearing Liu Dong's words, he naturally agreed.
Jin Buhuan, a reckless fool, was very obedient to his cousin and master, and happily followed behind Liu Dong and Lian Chengbi.
Liu Tong cast a secret spell on the three of them and followed behind Leng Yubing and his group.
Leng Yubing was very fortunate to ascend to heaven, and many gods came to greet him.
The Four Celestial Masters brought Leng Yubing to Lingxiao Palace to meet the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor here looks completely different from the Jade Emperor of the primordial world. He is not a projection of the primordial Jade Emperor, but rather the Heavenly Emperor that this world itself has conceived.
The Jade Emperor issued an edict appointing Leng Rubing as the Grand Envoy for Pacifying Demons and concurrently the Deputy Envoy of the Jade Pavilion of the Academy of Literature, and bestowed upon him two celestial officials, four celestial clerks, four boys and girls, and eight strongmen.
Leng Rubing immediately appointed Wen Ruyu as a celestial official and his three other disciples as celestial clerks.
This truly shows how one person attains enlightenment, and even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.
Leng Rubing's mentor, Master Huolong, was waiting outside the Lingxiao Palace. After he finished receiving his title, he took Leng Rubing to visit the powerful figures in the Heavenly Palace.
First, go to the Eight Views Palace to pay respects to Grand Master Xuandu and Laozi, then go to pay homage to the Eastern King Duke, and then to the Queen Mother of the West...
Lian Chengbi followed behind Leng Rubing and met all the gods and immortals of the Heavenly Court.
Liu Dong, however, was not interested in these immortals. Instead, he went to the Peach Garden and picked a peach to try.
The taste wasn't as good as the peaches that grew in his space, and their effects were also much weaker.
Liu Dong picked a peach that had matured in nine thousand years and a peach that had matured in six thousand years, and then left the Peach Garden.
Liu Dong found Lian Chengbi and Jin Buhuan and led them away from the Heavenly Court.
Upon returning to the mortal realm, Liu Dong gave the nine-thousand-year-old peach to Lian Chengbi and the six-thousand-year-old peach to Jin Buhuan.
These peaches were useless to Liu Dong, but they were quite effective for Lian Chengbi and Jin Buhuan.
Especially gold that cannot be exchanged.
After consuming the peaches of immortality that had been stored for six thousand years, he showed signs of a breakthrough and immediately went into seclusion.
After he emerged, he had also attained the level of an immortal.
Lian Chengbi has also gone into seclusion.
The effects of a 9,000-year-old peach are stronger than those of a 6,000-year-old peach.
After Lian Chengbi emerged from seclusion, his strength increased significantly.
Leng Yubing returned to the mortal realm from the immortal realm, intending to take all his disciples to heaven.
He extended an invitation to Lian Chengbi and Liu Dong, and even promised Lian Chengbi a position as a celestial official.
Lian Chengbi refused: "I prefer to be a carefree immortal."
Leng Yubing was shocked to discover that even as a deity, he could not discern Lian Chengbi's cultivation level. He realized that Lian Chengbi was incredibly powerful, and that even the great powers in the Heavenly Palace were no match for him.
Lian Chengbi's background and origins are probably "unspeakable".
Leng Yubing dared not voice her doubts and left with her apprentice.
But he maintained his friendship with Lian Chengbi, for whatever reason.
It was this friendship that prevented him from being cast into reincarnation by the powerful beings of the primordial era. (End of Chapter)
