Data cultivation, I observe immortality in the five elements

Zhong Ning, that young man, was no stranger to the Linglong Pagoda; he had noticed it from the moment Luo Yan first came into contact with it.

The three of them even spent some time together, and He even treated the little guy to grilled spirit fish and delicious fruit wine.

Wasn't that just an ordinary boy who couldn't cultivate?
How did it become Luo's reliance?
"His ordinariness is actually the greatest extraordinary quality!"

Luo Yan nodded. The strange illness of a mere human boy could actually leave a demon saint helpless.

It is easy to imagine how bizarre the drawback of Zhong Ning's inability to cultivate was.

This doesn't seem like an illness; it's more like a curse.

Or, to put it another way, it's like a creature suffering from acclimatization issues; a high-energy-density being suddenly transported to a low-energy-density world is naturally unable to adapt to the environment.

Luo Yan didn't really know Zhong Ning's background, but he could roughly guess some of it.

It is highly likely that some deity from the upper realm encountered an accident during their reincarnation.

Or perhaps he was secretly plotted against, which caused him to be reincarnated and unable to cultivate.

With Luo Yan's previous help, Zhong Ning finally got back on track and was qualified to continue his cultivation.

It should be noted that this batch of reincarnated immortals and gods includes all of them, even excluding Zhong Ning.

Luo Yan has already seen at least three reincarnated immortals and gods!

So many reincarnated immortals and deities descended to earth, if they were all truly here for the Five Finger Mountain artifact, or to harvest the fortune of the Five Elements Sect.
Therefore, it can be expected that there will be competition among the immortals and gods.

There may only be one ultimate winner!
It's not hard to guess that there will inevitably be a battle among those reincarnated immortals and gods!
Therefore, Zhong Ning's past life energy was used as a shield to kill Leng Zijin and to hinder the subsequent deductions of Palace Master Gongsun and Sect Leader Longyangzi.

It can definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

As long as those two elders cannot deduce the whole story and find the real mastermind behind it all.

Luo Yan's revenge could not be considered disobeying orders.

It won't get you into trouble.

Even if they had some guesses, they could guess that the mastermind behind this was Luo Yan.

However, without specific evidence, speculation alone cannot convict Luo Yan.

At most, Luo Yan will be subjected to some inexplicable punishment.

Forcibly plucking the tiger's fur in front of it—that's what Luo Yan is going to do.

"With Zhong Ning's past life energy, I believe there shouldn't be any problem in concealing the divination results of those two ancestors."

Luo Yan walked along the beach, her mind filled with thoughts.

Although the complete plan was already on paper, he was still thinking and repeatedly examining things beyond this revenge scheme.

Nothing in this world comes from nowhere.

The result at this moment must be the result of the cause created before!

Throughout history, this has always been the case.

Unlike his second spirit body, which was solely focused on revenge, Luo Yan vaguely sensed an invisible hand manipulating everything.

The second spirit's reaction, like a turtle in a jar, was probably already within the expectations of those giant hands.

It's an intuition, a keen sense akin to the "Martial Arts Heavenly Eye."

A person who is shrewd and calculating, with a complex mind, will find something wrong with everything.

This is especially true for things like coincidences!

Before stepping into the realm of destiny, Luo Yan believed in coincidence.

But as his cultivation level increases, it's better to make him believe in a god than in coincidence.

It's the same principle.

If Luo Yan wasn't mistaken, perhaps the second spirit body sensed something was wrong, which is why it immediately came to him for help.

One reason was revenge, and the other was the fear that they would both get caught up in it.

After all, the second spiritual body is ultimately Luo Yan's external avatar, and the two share a significant commonality in their thoughts and consciousness.

At least in terms of crisis awareness, the second spiritual body is not lacking in sensitivity.

The sounds of a noisy battle could be heard in the distance, never ceasing from morning till night.

The Red Sea has long been dyed a deep red, with countless pieces of flesh and bones piled up on the seabed.

From a distance, it was a veritable mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, like a living hell.

Not only were there sounds of fighting and roars in the air, but the smell that permeated this sea area was also extremely fishy and pungent.

It was so foul it made one instinctively want to vomit.

"The second spirit said that as soon as he left the cave, he saw the sect leader Longyangzi."

"Immediately afterwards, Palace Master Gongsun came over and acted as a peacemaker, even telling him a story."

Luo Yan pondered, his eyes gleaming. He increasingly realized that the invisible hand belonged to Palace Master Gongsun and the Sect Leader Longyangzi.

Are these two elderly people really kind and gentle-looking?

"Although I know very little about it, even cultivators at high levels are still human."

"Would a great figure like Sect Leader Longyangzi really bother to personally appear and protect a single disciple?"

Luo Yan murmured, pondering every detail of the matter repeatedly, not even overlooking the tone and manner of her second spiritual body mimicking the two old men.

Luo Yan firmly believes in one principle: whenever you encounter a logic that you don't understand, try looking at it from a different angle or in a different direction.

For example, interests.

Take human nature, for example!
Clearly, the grudge between two junior cultivators at the Refinement Realm would lead to a meeting and a warning between two Mahayana Realm elders, which is absolutely illogical.

It goes against human nature!
What could have been resolved simply by issuing a decree was instead brought to the attention of Sect Leader Longyangzi, with Palace Master Gongsun also stepping in to mediate.
This is a bit like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, and then telling the mosquito, "Don't suck my blood anymore, or I'll kill you."

"interesting."

"The second spirit body was set up by those two old guys," Luo Yan murmured, guessing part of the truth.

Perhaps the reason he was able to obtain the qualification to view the "Ten Thousand Saints Heart Seal Method" so easily was due to the scheming of those two old men.

But why?

"And what are the goals of those two?"

Although Luo Yan analyzed from a human nature perspective that the two Mahayana patriarchs were probably playing a grand game of chess with a magnificent scope.

However, because the second spirit body had too little information, Luo Yan couldn't figure out any more clues.

He was like someone trying to untangle a tangled ball of yarn; until he found the end of the thread, the more he tried to untangle it, the more tangled it became.

Furthermore, the feeling of being a pawn is very unpleasant.

At least Luo Yan was unwilling to accept such a fate, that every move he made was pre-arranged. He was to go to the Ancient Profound Domain to participate in the Immortal Destiny Conference, then join the Earth Immortal Alliance, take over the Heavenly Fortune Star banner, and compete with Leng Zijin.
"If the second spirit continues its revenge and kills Leng Zijin, there will only be three possible outcomes."

"First, before I could even take action, I was discovered by Master Longyangzi, who then forcibly detained me."

"Secondly, he was slapped to death by Master Longyangzi."

"Thirdly, Sect Leader Longyangzi wants to use the second spiritual body as leverage to help him complete some inconvenient tasks, thereby settling this feud over the killing of his disciple."

Luo Yan's gaze was cold. With a flick of his finger, several chess pieces and some messy lines appeared on the beach.

A complex and intricate design, with countless lines.

Luo Yan depicted the second spiritual body, Leng Zijin, Palace Master Gongsun, and Sect Leader Longyangzi.

And ponder the connections between them carefully.

"If I were one of those two old guys, I would definitely choose the third option, because killing is one of the most meaningless options for beings like them."

"Because those who are skilled in divination are often unwilling to stoop to reality and engage in real, bloody battles."

"This is a fixed fact formed based on the Great Dao they themselves have integrated!"

Luo Yan knew very well that although the disciples of the Star Gazing Hall would come to fight on the Sea Clan battlefield, this was a special circumstance and they had no choice in the matter.

Once a disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Hall joins the Star Gazing Hall, he will generally restrain his nature and no longer flaunt his abilities.

This is very different from the four halls of Tianji Hall, Chimei Wangliang Hall, and Tianji Hall.

Similarly, this commonality would most likely also apply to that Palace Master Gongsun.

"If this condition is met, what exactly does that Sect Leader Longyangzi, or rather Palace Master Gongsun, want me to do for them?"

"Furthermore, this matter should be unique, independent, and extremely dangerous."

"It's so dangerous that if I hear it, I won't agree, it would even be to the point of disobeying the law."

"But those two had no choice but to do it for their own plans."

Luo Yan frowned, a terrifying thought rising in his mind: his second spirit body might have become a key piece in some crucial game.

Even Leng Zijin
"The 'Myriad Saints Heart Seal Technique' is a unique destiny technique similar to soul possession. Those who practice this technique can completely absorb the destiny energy of another person and ultimately replace that person."

"This means that Leng Zijin's repeated schemes against the second spirit body may not be solely due to his own reasons."

"A more likely explanation is that it stemmed from the deliberate guidance of those two old men."

Thinking of this, the line of thought in Luo Yan's mind instantly became incredibly clear.

His eyes flickered, his gaze fixed on the lines he had drawn.

Then, these lines began to twist and eventually slowly transformed into a single character.

Fairy!
A gentle sea breeze blew, and the waves crashed softly. Luo Yan closed her eyes and murmured to herself:
"Did Palace Master Gongsun go to such great lengths to bring me from the Five Elements Sect to the Earth Immortal Alliance just to find a stable successor for the Heavenly Fortune Star?"

"Given Leng Zijin's abilities, or rather, the abilities of the Longyangzi lineage, it might be difficult to find a single, stable successor to the Heavenly Fortune Star."

"But they can't resist the fact that their lineage can devour the fate of others and thus take their place."

"In this way, Palace Master Gongsun's previous words naturally fall apart without a trace."

A sudden realization dawned on Luo Yan. With just the information provided by his second spiritual body, he pierced through the fog and saw a bottomless abyss rushing toward him.

He thought about the laws of cause and effect and destiny that he himself possessed, and his mind was filled with many thoughts.

The principles of cause and effect, and destiny, are inherently part of the natural order of things.

The law of cause and effect states that a cause must precede an effect.

People who are in the causal chain generally act according to their own personality, and this is part of the causal relationship.

For outsiders to fabricate a cause-and-effect relationship, two conditions must be met.

First, it truly exists; second, it does not violate the natural order.

Luo Yan had read the "Wan Sheng Xin Yin Fa" and had some understanding of that wonderful method.

From a causal perspective, the final move of a chess piece depends on whether it is done voluntarily, as a manifestation of self-awareness, and whether it lands on a pre-planned chess square.

This is the cycle of cause and effect.

However, being able to glimpse this complete cause-and-effect trajectory in advance belongs to the realm of destiny.

Both of these paths share a common point: once the trajectory of cause and effect begins, or the line of destiny has already started.

At this point, the player holding the piece can no longer intervene.

Otherwise, the player himself would be drawn into these two great orders.

Also known as being tainted by karma and interfering with one's destiny.
Luo Yan's eyes were bright. He carefully compared the actions of the Sect Leader Long Yangzi and the Palace Master Gongsun, and found that they were like a night lamp, deliberately guiding him forward.

"Those two old guys are probably up to no good."

Luo Yan sighed. From a human perspective, the reactions of Sect Leader Long Yangzi and Palace Master Gongsun were very strange.

Based on the fundamental facts of cause and effect and destiny, those two perfectly fit the identity of chess players.

He always guided from the shadows, but never gave direct orders.

"What is so special about my second spiritual body, or rather, my own body, that makes it worthwhile for Palace Master Gongsun to go to such lengths?"

"Could it be that the key lies in the word 'variable'?"

Luo Yan walked unconsciously on the beach with his eyes closed. He could feel several pairs of indifferent eyes watching his every move from above.

"What exactly are you old geezers trying to do?"

After walking on the beach for a while, Luo Yan left.

He found a quiet room, sat cross-legged on the ground, summoned the Mirror Ancestor and the Tower Ancestor, borrowed their great power, and then his hands kept changing, forming a series of profound hand seals.

Instantly, the void before them distorted, and the profound power of destiny received immeasurable support, beginning a violent eruption.

"evolution!"

As Luo Yan finished speaking, his voice, empowered by the power of immortality, transformed into a series of ethereal seals imbued with the great power of destiny.

In an instant, a thunderous Dao sound erupted, sweeping across the entire world.

This force was terrifyingly strong, converging into a gravitational vortex that shot straight into the sky from Luo Yan as its starting point.

Above the river of destiny, an incredibly solid azure figure appeared, its feet rippled like raindrops echoing on the river's surface.

At the same time, three people almost immediately sensed this enormous fluctuation of destiny's power.

The first person was the White-Browed Palace Master. He opened his eyes with a 'whoosh,' stood up from inside the Starry Sky Palace, and the patterns of destiny in his eyes burst forth as he gazed at the Milky Way.

"What's going on? Why do I suddenly feel a pang of heartbeat?" (End of Chapter)
