Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 728 Generous Rewards

garden.

The Jade Emperor looked appreciative.

Chen Yun seemed very calm and said, "It was only with the help of God that we were able to defeat Jiuyao. This was not the work of me alone."

The Jade Emperor looked at him, his admiration growing stronger. "When you faced the Nine Stars Lords before, you were arrogant but not proud. Now you seem very calm and composed. It seems that you have gradually found yourself."

Chen Yun took out the glass lamp and said, "Thanks to God for reminding me before."

The Jade Emperor took the glass lamp and handed it to the immortal official beside him, "Return it to its original place."

The immortal official hurriedly said, "Yes."

After saying that, he turned and left.

As soon as the immortal official left, the Jade Emperor looked at Chen Yun and said, "You just broke through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm and experienced such a great battle, and then you even manifested Pangu's true body, which put a great burden on you. This may have some impact on your future cultivation."

Chen Yun smiled and explained: "Don't worry, God, I have recovered..."

Before he finished speaking, the Jade Emperor sighed, "You can't expect a horse to run without giving it grass to eat. You've fought so hard for me, so I can't treat you unfairly."

Chen Yun, who was about to say that his strong recovery ability would not be a problem, immediately changed the subject and nodded, "Yes, I risked my life this time."

The Jade Emperor glanced at him and asked, "What did you mean by recovery ability?"

Boss Chen Yun said shamelessly: "His recovery ability is average."

The Jade Emperor laughed dumbly and said, "Do you think I don't know that you have a strong ability to recover? Did you change the subject because you heard that I seemed to want to comfort you?"

Chen Yun was not embarrassed at all after being exposed. On the contrary, he smiled and said, "Those who have made contributions must be rewarded, so those who do good will make progress, and those who have committed crimes will be punished, so those who do evil will stop. In today's battle with the Nine Stars Lord, the one who made the greatest contribution is none other than Medicine King Li Zhenren. I can barely be considered second. If God is willing to reward me, I will naturally be happy from the bottom of my heart."

The Jade Emperor was amused by Chen Yun, "Slippery."

Chen Yun greeted him with a smile.

The Jade Emperor said, "Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Chen Yun instinctively wanted to say that you can just give whatever you think is appropriate.

Because he believed that since the Jade Emperor was of such a high status, even if he gave a small reward, it would not be bad.

The words were almost on the tip of his tongue when he suddenly remembered that he had broken through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm and could probably take the Lianxu Hedao Decoction.

Lianxu Hedao Decoction requires a total of seventy-two precious spiritual roots from heaven and earth.

Chen Yun was fighting on the battlefield and had no time to collect the information.

He thought, since the Jade Emperor asked for a reward, could he ask him for some core precious medicinal materials?
Well, he didn’t dare ask for all of them.

This is not because I am afraid of leaking the prescription.

If you only have the prescription but no small copper furnace, and don't know the temperature of the fire, you won't be able to make the corresponding magic soup.

Therefore, even if he told other people the recipe of Lianxu Decoction, he was not afraid that someone would be able to make it.

The reason why Chen Yun did not ask for all of it was that asking for too much would be too greedy and would give people a bad impression.

He thought about it carefully, and said tentatively: "Can I ask for some precious heaven and earth spiritual roots?"

The Jade Emperor said without hesitation: "What kind of spiritual soup do you want? Just tell me. If I have it, I will definitely try my best to satisfy you."

Chen Yun continued to test: "I want more spiritual roots of heaven and earth, I don't know..."

The Jade Emperor interrupted and said, "Go ahead. Since I have promised, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."

Seeing God was so generous, Chen Yun said without hesitation: "Okay, I need Huisha Fan Gang Grass, Qianxian Luli Flower, Shifang Sanshi Huanxin Water, Baijie Qiluo Xianxuechan Liquid, Liuhe Xuanning Vine, Xiantian Binghuo Yinglong Branch, Xianziyu Appearance Bingyu Flower, Yinyang Hexin Liming Leaf..."

In a flash, the names of more than a dozen extremely precious spiritual roots of heaven and earth came out of his mouth.

The Jade Emperor just nodded at first, but the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong, and finally a look of speechlessness appeared on his face.

"... Immortal Drunken Thunder Tree Fruit." Chen Yun thought about it carefully, "Well, there are only these fifteen medicinal herbs."

The Jade Emperor spoke with great emphasis: "Just these fifteen flavors?"

Chen Yun blinked and said, "God doesn't have it?"

Although the Jade Emperor's tone was still calm, everyone could hear that he was in a bad mood. "These fifteen spiritual roots of heaven and earth, some immortals have never heard of them, they are all extremely precious, how dare you want so many at once?"

Chen Yun said awkwardly, "Forget it if there is none. I will find a way myself."

"You want these herbs, which is not difficult for me." The Jade Emperor did not refuse directly, "But I see that the medicinal properties of some of the heavenly and earthly spiritual roots you mentioned are conflicting. For example, the Fairy-like Ice Jade Flower and the Yin-Yang Heart-leaving Leaf, if they are taken together, even the body of a celestial being cannot bear it, and it is very likely that the body will explode and die. Although the life of a celestial being relies on the power of the 'law', exploding and dying will not really kill you, but if the body explodes, it will take several years to recover. I really want to know why you want these spiritual roots with conflicting medicinal properties?"

Chen Yun was silent for a long while, and then said half-truthfully, "I want to refine an elixir in which various spiritual roots of heaven and earth are combined, which will eventually resolve the problem of medicinal conflicts. For example, the Fairy Appearance Ice Jade Flower and the Yin-Yang Heart Liming Leaf can be resolved by adding the Dragon Heart Nine Leaf Ganoderma. Well, I also need this spiritual root, but I didn't dare to mention it to you, God, for fear that I would ask for too much and make you unhappy."

The Jade Emperor laughed angrily, "You know you're asking for too much? Well, tell me all the spiritual roots you need, and I'll listen. If I can really put together a prescription, I'll definitely get all the herbs for you."

Do you want to tell the Jade Emperor?
Although the prescription told the other party that it could not be refined without a small copper furnace, Chen Yun always felt that this was his biggest secret and didn't know whether he should tell it.

Now, apart from the future successor Fang Yi, it seems that the only person who knows that he possesses the Daluo Lingtang is Taishang Laojun.

In addition, Chen Yun felt that Yuanshi Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun should also know it, but the Jade Emperor did not.

If I tell the other party the recipe of Lianxu Hedao Decoction, maybe the other party will get a clue from it and associate it with Daluo Ling Decoction, then I will be in real danger.

Not everyone can resist the temptation of taking a magical soup to achieve Daluo.

Even though the Jade Emperor was promised by an unknown top god that as long as he could become the master of heaven and earth in this Battle of the Gods, he would have the opportunity to become a Daluo, but this has not happened yet.

So if I reveal the secret of the Daluo Lingtang, who knows if the Jade Emperor will take the risk?
Chen Yun had heard from Lu Dongbin that the Jade Emperor was the number one person below the Daluo realm. If the other party really had ideas about him, he didn't think that anyone except the Three Pure Ones, Three Realms, Three Treasures and future successors could rival him.

Therefore, there is great danger in speaking out.

So, after thinking carefully, he shook his head and said, "Thank God for your kindness, but I'm afraid I can't tell you." The Jade Emperor looked deep and said, "Are you afraid that I will take away your chance to attain enlightenment? It's natural for you to be so worried. In fact, I can tell you that no matter what chance you have to attain enlightenment, it is impossible for you to help me."

Chen Yun asked curiously: "Why?"

The Jade Emperor put his hands behind his back and looked towards the distant fairyland. "I once told you that I was supposed to be the Yuanshi Tianzun of this world. I was born in response to disasters and should have transformed into Pangu Zhenren, creating the world and evolving the universe. However, some small accidents caused me to lose my original divine power. I can only go through billions of disasters to prove myself as the Jade Emperor, so that one day I can merge with the Tao and become the Daluo. This is destined to happen. However, the path to proving myself as the Jade Emperor is not as powerful as the path to proving myself as the Tao by creating the world. This is quite regrettable in itself. Who would have thought that the innate great god promised that as long as I could become the master of heaven and earth in this Conferred God Battle, he would help me prove myself as the Daluo, which is stronger than the Daluo who proved myself as the Jade Emperor, and even stronger than the Daluo who proved myself as the Tao by creating the world. Therefore, no matter what opportunities you have, I will never be able to snatch them away."

Having said this, he paused, looked at Chen Yun with a half-smile and said, "You don't know your origins, but I know them very well. Others may dare to snatch your opportunity, but I'm not that bold."

Chen Yun was in doubt and said, "When I was in Yang Shen, my light shone on the ten directions and three times. No matter the heavens and the myriad worlds, or the past, present, and future, I could sense everything. I never noticed any difference in myself. God, why do you say that?"

The Jade Emperor laughed and said, "It cannot be said openly, it cannot be said openly."

Chen Yun: "..."

He was really speechless, thinking to himself, either you don't have to say anything, or if you are going to say something, can you please not just say half of it? Isn't that just keeping people in suspense?

Perhaps seeing that he was a little confused, the Jade Emperor added, "If you can attain Daluo, you will naturally understand why."

Will you naturally understand if you attain Daluo?
Chen Yun thought that he had already cultivated to the celestial fairyland. As long as he had the help of the spiritual soup, he would be able to cultivate quickly to the half-step Daluo realm.

Then, if one could obtain the medicinal materials needed for the Daluo Lingtang, it seems that achieving the Daluo realm would not be impossible, and it would not be too far away.

Why would he think so?
Because Chen Yun knew that as long as he could cultivate to the half-step Daluo, the one hundred and hundreds of spiritual roots of heaven and earth needed for the Daluo Spirit Soup would not be difficult to obtain.

He had previously gone to a secret realm with Erlang Shen, Changshengtian, Changmei Daxian and others. There was a sacred mountain there. Didn’t the sacred mountain have the 108 spiritual roots needed for the Daluo Lingtang?

The problem is that he currently does not have the ability to defeat the Half-Step Daluo Demon God who is guarding the mountain, so he has no way of obtaining those spiritual roots.

Once he is half a step toward Daluo, his chances of winning will greatly increase. Wouldn't he have the hope of obtaining spiritual roots and thus attaining Daluo?

The Jade Emperor asked again: "In that case, do you need me to help you gather the spiritual roots of heaven and earth you need?"

Chen Yun thought for a moment, bowed and said, "Then I'll have to trouble God."

After that, he told the other party the names of all the herbs needed.

Well, he was still cautious and only mentioned sixty-eight kinds of medicinal herbs.

He did not mention that there are four spiritual roots of heaven and earth that act as "harmonizers" and are not difficult to find.

After listening to this, the Jade Emperor nodded slightly and said, "I've made a note of it. I'll have someone collect it later and it will be delivered to you within two or three days."

Chen Yun was overjoyed and said hurriedly, "Thank God."

The Jade Emperor said, "Don't be so polite. I just told you that if you have done a good deed, you will be rewarded."

At this point, he suddenly turned his head to look, then quickly retracted his head and said, "This time you defeated the Nine Star Gods. Next, the Purple Star Emperor will definitely send more powerful gods, such as the Eleven Star Gods. If the eleven of them join forces, they will exert a stronger strength. In addition to the Eleven Star Gods, the Four Saints of the North Pole may also participate in the battle, as well as the Seven Elements of the Northern Dipper, the Zuo Fu and You Bi, the Star Gods of the Three Platforms, the Six Officials of the Southern Dipper, the Three True Ones of the Central Dipper, the Two Envoys of the Qingyang Tuoluo, the Twelve Yuanchen Star Gods, the Sixty Jiazi Tai Sui Star Gods, the Thirty-six Heavenly Gangs in the Dipper, the Seventy-two Earthly Evils, the Spiritual Officials of the Immortals in the Dipper, the Zhoutian Lieyao Star Gods, the Great Sage of the Heavenly Gangs, the Kuigang Star God, etc. All these stars in the sky and the Milky Way may participate in the battle. Have you thought about how to deal with them?"

Chen Yun said: "It is difficult for the immortals here to deal with the Nine Stars Lord. If all the stars in the sky and the Milky Way join the battle, I am afraid we will not be able to resist. We need God to send more divine help."

The Jade Emperor was silent for a moment and did not give an immediate reply.

He thought carefully for a while, then said, "Well, let me think about it, and ask some powerful gods to help me someday."

Chen Yun said: "That's great. God, do you have anything else to say? If not, I will go to the lower world first."

"Nothing, you go back first."

The Jade Emperor waved his hand.

Chen Yun bowed and was about to leave.

The Jade Emperor seemed to have suddenly thought of something and called out to him, "Master Chen, please wait a moment."

Chen Yun stopped and looked over, "God, what else?"

The Jade Emperor looked a little serious and asked, "Bodhisattva Mariputra, do you still remember?"

Chen Yundao: "Remember."

The Jade Emperor said, "Although she is a Buddhist, she has always stood firmly on the side of the Purple Star Emperor. If I am not mistaken, she will most likely personally take action when the Nine Stars Lord is defeated. By then, the sacred being on your side may not be her opponent."

Chen Yun frowned and said, "She is at the half-step Daluo realm. Is she going to die so early?"

The Jade Emperor looked deep in his eyes and said, "It's getting late. If she doesn't take action, the Jin court will be destroyed in an instant."

Chen Yun guessed that the Jade Emperor had figured out something, but since the other party didn't say anything, he didn't dare to ask directly.

He thought for a moment, "If the Bodhisattva Maripada comes personally, which deity should I ask for help?"

The Jade Emperor said, "Although Moli Putian is a half-step Daluo, she is not from the orthodox Xuanmen sect and may lack some magical power. In my opinion, whether you ask your master or the Golden Mother to come out, they will probably be able to defeat her easily."

Chen Yun secretly noted it in his heart, and then said: "Okay, I already know. If I run into the Bodhisattva Mari Putian in the future, I will definitely ask the master or the Golden Mother to come out of the mountain as soon as possible."

The Jade Emperor said, "Well, I will also fight in this battle, but not now, but at the final battle. You go back first. I will send people to help you in the next two days, and bring the spiritual roots you need with them."

Chen Yun hurriedly said, "Thank you."

After saying that, he turned and left.

To be honest, Chen Yun really didn't expect that he would get such a big benefit when he came to the Heaven to return the glass lamp.

The Jade Emperor not only said that he would add more manpower to himself, but also helped collect the spiritual roots of heaven and earth needed for "Lianxu Hedao Decoction"!

He knew that the reason why the Jade Emperor was so generous was that, on the one hand, the war had reached this point and a greater investment was necessary.

On the other hand, he had made great contributions this time, which had led to a breakthrough in the Khitan army's southern expedition, and the Jade Emperor was rewarding him.

No matter what, the harvest this time was quite rich, and Chen Yun felt very satisfied deep down in his heart!
