Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 717: Guiding the Immortal Envoy
When Yuan Ruoshui took her first step and stepped into the downstream of the river, she had already stepped past the ancient timeline that belonged to her. Suddenly, a shadowy mountain on both sides of the river turned from virtual to real, rose up abruptly, and pressed towards her.

That was a vast amount of records of all the events that took place in that era, as light as a feather and yet as heavy as Mount Tai.

A white halo behind Yuan Ruoshui's head emitted infinite flames, propping up a white light curtain, and then lifted up the mountain. A trace of pain flashed across her face, and she gritted her teeth and continued to chase her husband.

However, with every step she took forward, a mountain of memories of an era pressed down upon her, turning from virtual to real.

She followed the golden thread and moved forward. At first she was able to move forward, but later she could hardly move forward. Above her head were the mountains, whose shadows were so vague that she could not see how far they lay.

Even in her current extraordinary state, she couldn't hold on.

A ball of green light appeared before her eyes, and the golden line entered into it and disappeared. Her husband was right in front of her, but she could not see him.

Yuan Ruoshui was fixed in place, unable to move. She took a step forward, but was unable to fall into the river.

Because the light curtain above her head had pressed down a group of mountains, forming continuous mountain ranges, which made her dizzy and almost unable to breathe.

Yuan Ruoshui was shocked and angry, and suddenly there was something in his hand.

It was the sundial that had just disappeared into the long river of time and space.

She angrily shot a needle towards the river.

"Even if I become an immortal, I can't find my husband. What's the point of becoming an immortal?"

Wow!

The golden thread broke, and the green light ball in front also disappeared.

The sundial in her hand also disappeared.

But thousands of rivers are rising with waves.

Yuan Ruoshui's heart moved, and white light shot out of his eyes. Using Lu Ye's remaining magical energy as a guide, he wanted to reflect all of Lu Ye's historical past.

She was already an immortal now, and using her immortal arts, she had broken through all restrictions of this world. Even the long river of time and space had to give her some room.

According to the theory of the Manifested Saint, Yuan Ruoshui is a reef. She can change the course of the river of time and space, but she cannot cross from one end of the river to the other because her cultivation is like a reef and she cannot cross the river.

Yuan Ruoshui wanted to use her powerful cultivation to see clearly her husband's entire past and origins so as to find an opportunity to reunite with him.

So the first thing she saw was a dilapidated little temple, with refugees eating people, and her husband was a bystander. Fortunately, her equally unfortunate companions rose up to resist, and with her husband's desperate attempt to survive, she finally survived.

I also saw my husband and his brothers join the refugee army and become horse herders in order to beg for a living.

The scene changed again, showing the wedding night, which she didn't like, so she skipped it.

What follows is how Lu Ye was abducted and turned into an immortal, and then escaped from the Black Cave Mountain.

Heikushan seemed to have had an entanglement with a woman whose features could not be seen clearly.

Afterwards, there was an internal strife in the Seven Demon Sects of Black Cave Mountain. He took the opportunity to escape, and then practiced Taoism as a casual cultivator. It was not easy at all, and he also had to go find his wife.

After several life and death experiences, he finally took root in the East China Sea and became the overlord of the Yuanying realm. However, the two-winged demons invaded and he was cursed by the demon sundial mark and then exiled into the long river of time and space.

A piece of light and shadow was reflected in Yuan Ruoshui's eyes like flowing water.

"I see……"

"My husband, you are not a person of this world..."

Now that Yuan Ruoshui had seen the past clearly, she immediately stepped back, and walked back to the starting point step by step.

In the light curtain supported by the white halo above her head, the majestic mountain shadows disappeared and stood quietly on the two banks.

When Yuan Ruoshui returned to the place where she fell into the river, she could finally move freely.

But she knew she couldn't stay for long.

She broke through nine thunders in a row, and her body had been transformed and reshaped by the thunder of the immortal calamity. She had completely detached from her mortal body and now had an immortal body.

Somehow, she learned a lot about the fairy world.

The most important one is the difference between immortals and mortals.

The body of an immortal cannot stay in the mortal world for long and can only live and practice in the immortal world.

Otherwise, they will fall from immortality and become mortals, and all their hard work in cultivating immortal status will be in vain. It has never been heard that anyone can become an immortal again.

Yuan Ruoshui had just become an immortal at this time. Relying on his powerful immortal power, he resisted the pulling force of flying into the immortal world. He rushed into the long river of time and space as soon as possible to look for Lu Ye's figure.

So, she was pulled by two forces.

Immortals should not appear in the long river of time and space. Once they become immortal, they will be immortal and achieve eternal life. Naturally, their own mark in the long river will be erased. Except for themselves, outsiders cannot peek into their past and future.

Therefore, there will be no reflection of immortals in the long river of time and space, and their existence will be rejected and they will be expelled at all times.

The fairyland also has infinite suction, which wants to pull her into the fairyland and return her to her place.

Yuan Ruoshui lowered her head and stared at the river. Her face and body could not be seen in the surging waves because she had become an immortal.

"Isn't it just becoming an immortal?"

"Ice Emperor Saint, this is what you have been thinking about all the time. You have truly become the number one cultivator in this world."

"It's just that your wish has been fulfilled, and the only thing left is to fulfill my wish."

"My wish is also very simple, that is to stay with my husband forever and stay together for the rest of my life."

"If I become an immortal and I am the only one left, what's the point of becoming one?"

"So..." Yuan Ruoshui closed his eyes for a few breaths, and when he opened them again, the hesitation in his eyes was gone, and his determination and tenderness returned.

"It doesn't matter if this immortal is not worthy..."

"If I really ascend to the immortal world and stay there for a long time, I am afraid that I will not be able to resist the temptation of longevity and forget what my husband looks like."

"I am willing to remove my immortal bones, shed my mortal body, and reincarnate for hundreds of lifetimes, just to be reunited with my husband."

Yuan Ruoshui made a decision instantly and inserted it into her body with her backhand, but she saw that she was holding a white ball of light in her hand, with a look of pain on her face, and was about to pull it out.

Just now.

There are waves in the long river of time and space again.

Another tall and majestic figure descended, his whole body glowing. It was just a phantom of an avatar, but the avatar had infinite magical power, which pressed the waves of the river to flow in all directions.

Because the light was too bright, one could only barely make out that it had a human body with a snake tail, with runes of the Great Dao rotating around it to bless it.

The power of this phantom alone is many times greater than that of Yuan Ruoshui who had just become an immortal.

"Wait a minute..." The voice was vague, vast and empty, shaking the entire river of time and space, "Yuan, you have to think it over carefully."

"It's not easy to become an immortal. Only one among millions of cultivators can steal a trace of heaven's secrets and become an immortal."

"If you remove your immortal bones and return to a mortal body today, you will never be able to become an immortal again."

“If you waste your immortal fate like this, you will be punished by heaven and reincarnate hundreds of times. Not to mention whether your true spirit can be awakened, your immortal appearance will gradually become ordinary. Even if you can practice in the future, you will not be able to achieve anything great.”

"Take a step forward and return to the Immortal Realm. With your affinity with the Immortals being the best in your realm, you will be loved by the heaven and earth, and you will surely become a giant in the Immortal Realm in the future."

"If you take a step back and return to the mortal world, you will be separated from the immortals and mortals forever, and face many disasters. Even if you really meet your lover hundreds of lives later, can you guarantee that he will not change his mind?"

"By then, he will be so high up that he will dominate this world, and you may be just a small golden elixir cultivator."

"Are you still willing?"

Yuan Ruoshui looked straight at his figure. As soon as they met, she knew his identity. He was the guiding fairy envoy in charge of this realm.

She nodded slightly and smiled.

"Thank you for the reminder, Immortal Envoy."

"But there are so many people in the world. How does the Immortal Envoy know that everyone practices to become an immortal?"

"I don't ask for much. Whatever I do today, I will take the responsibility alone."

"I have confidence in my husband. I know he will never change his mind."

"Don't worry about that, my Lord Immortal Envoy..." The Immortal Envoy's voice paused. He did not expect the other party to answer like this.

He was stunned for a long while, the flames on his body faded, his tall figure bent slightly, and even his ethereal and grand voice became much quieter, with a somewhat urgent tone.

"Yuan! How can you not become an immortal?"

"You should know that if you ascend to the Immortal Realm, you must know that you are the first person to become an immortal in this world. You are loved by the heaven and earth of this world, and you have good fortune. The immortal bones you condense are also first-class qualifications, called the Blessing Immortal Bone."

“Others who become immortals are usually just ordinary True Immortals, but when you first become an immortal, you are already a Golden Immortal.”

“And from now on, there will be no obstacles to cultivation. Once you understand one thing, you will understand everything. There will be no three disasters and six difficulties.”

"I wonder how many immortals dream of having this root bone, and you just throw it away like this?"

"It is possible to achieve Daluo in the future, which will be a top existence in the fairy world."

"If not, do you think I am free? I have deliberately spent my immortal power to descend upon this turbid world, because I really want to establish a good relationship with you, Yuan."

"I am the fairy envoy of the Eastern Jinyin of the fairyland, so my Dharma name is Dongfang Chaoge. It is a great achievement for me to lead you to the fairyland, otherwise I would not have bothered to talk to you."

"Think carefully, what are you giving up by giving up on becoming an immortal?"

In order to persuade Yuan Ruoshui, Dongfang Chaoge thought he had been humble enough and analyzed the situation clearly.

Seeing that she was stubborn, he shook his head angrily and stopped trying to persuade her.

Although he was an immortal envoy in the fairyland, his cultivation was only at the Golden Immortal Realm. He persuaded Yuan Ruoshui to send his clone down, and he thought he had done his best.

He had been on duty for who knows how many years, but this was the first time he had seen someone, after going through so much trouble to become an immortal, actually want to remove his immortal bones and return to the mortal world.

It is his duty to persuade someone once, but good words cannot persuade a damned ghost.

If the other party insists on his own opinion, Dongfang Chaoge will be helpless. He can't force people to go to the fairyland, right?

The fairy world is divided into five major realms: True Immortal, Golden Immortal, Taiyi, Daluo, and Hunyuan. Even the Manifested Immortal Emperor who is now in charge of the fairy world, who is already the number one person in the fairy world, has only reached the Daluo realm.

What about Jinxian?
Since she wants to die, let her do it.

Even if a Golden Immortal possesses a blessed immortal bone and a bright future, if he does not know how to cherish his immortal fate and abandons his immortal bone, he will quickly become an ordinary person.

It’s impossible for someone else to practice for her, right?

"Yuan..." Dongfang Chaoge's mind was full of thoughts, weighing the pros and cons, and his voice immediately became cold and ethereal.

Since this foolish woman in front of him had abandoned the fairy world and had little chance of becoming a fairy in the future, she was not his colleague. He did not need to worry about her cultivation surpassing his in the future, so he did not need to treat her with a good face.

"Since you have made up your mind, remove your immortal bones in front of me. From now on, you will be separated from the immortals and mortals. Just don't regret it in the future..."

He was in a bad mood because this woman had spent a great deal of money to send her clone to the river of time and space, only to waste her energy and gain nothing, and would be punished when she returned.

Dongfang Chaoge's mood suddenly turned bad.

Yuan Ruoshui only said, "Thank you for waiting."

She stretched out her slender hand and inserted it into her chest, as if trying to pull something out.

His facial features were distorted due to severe pain and his forehead was covered with sweat.

After a while.

With his trembling hands, he grabbed a ball of white light from his chest.

As soon as this white ball of light appeared, Yuan Ruoshui's aura immediately dropped rapidly, and he fell back from the Golden Immortal Realm to the Tribulation Realm.

Moreover, two horns grew on his forehead and two wings grew on his back, and his immortal body suddenly turned back into a mortal body.

When the ball of white light expanded, it turned out to be a vague human figure. Inside it were countless pure jade bones, and each bone was engraved with densely packed golden avenue runes, which looked extraordinary.

Dongfang Chaoge was so angry when he saw the immortal bone...

There may be many immortals in a realm, but there is destined to be only one chief immortal in the realm.

This first immortal, inheriting the good fortune favored by heaven and earth in the realm, and the blessings of all living beings, has the roots of good fortune and affinity, and is the most top-notch root in the immortal world.

Such a talent was right in front of her, yet this woman picked it out without hesitation.

If he could snatch it, he would like to take a step forward and grab the immortal bone and refine it for himself.

Unfortunately, he knew that this was not possible.

This blessed root bone came from this world and returned to the immortal body. Now that the immortal body has transformed into the mortal world, this blessed root bone naturally cannot be retained and has returned to heaven and earth.

really.

It only takes a breath or two.

The immortal bone in the white light ball in Yuan Ruoshui's hand quickly turned into countless white light spots, returned to nothingness, and dissipated completely.

"Yuan Clan... there is also..." Dongfang Chaoge frowned and said, "In addition to the Fuyuan Immortal Bone."

"You have become the first immortal in this world, and you have also received the infinite blessings of the power of thought gathered from the great fortune of heaven and earth and the blessings of all living beings. Please hand them over together..."

Yuan Ruoshui didn't say anything. He gritted his teeth, formed seals with his hands on his forehead, and pulled them outwards. Immediately, a golden dot emerged between his eyebrows.

The golden dot was small at first, but it swelled as soon as it came into contact with the wind. In the blink of an eye, it became like a scorching sun hanging across the long river of time and space.

All I saw was nine golden halos forming a large circle, as big as a hundred feet. On it were faces of all living beings, the sun, the moon, the stars, and naturally condensed runes of the Great Dao, and endless flames were emanating from the outside.

It was the praise from heaven and earth and the respect from all living beings that he received after becoming the first immortal that formed the nine halos.

It includes merit, blessing, praise, reputation and all the great good things in the world.

With this halo, practitioners will be protected from all disasters and can avoid disasters and accumulate experience in practice.

You know, many immortals with high levels of cultivation have fallen in disasters.

Greed appeared in Dongfang Chaoge's eyes, and he reached out to take the nine-ring golden wheel in the air.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Ruoshui stretched out his hand and took the nine-ring golden wheel into his palm.

"Yuan...what are you doing?" Dongfang Chaoge was furious, and his shouting caused the shadows of the mountains on both sides of the long river of time and space to explode, and the river water to flow backwards.

Fortunately, there was the Nine-Ring Golden Wheel, and Yuan Ruoshui stood steadily holding it, but the long river outside was howling and the sky was turning upside down, which was also very terrifying.

"You are no longer an immortal, how dare you occupy all living beings in this world to gather their thoughts and blessings?" The guiding immortal envoy rebuked mercilessly, "Hand him over to me quickly, take him back to the immortal world, and let the Immortal Emperor deal with him..."

Yuan Ruoshui shook his head and sneered.

"I only ask you one question, even though I am now a mortal."

"But before that, was I already an immortal?"

"Since I am the number one immortal in this world, am I worthy of the blessing of these nine rings and the blessing of all living beings in heaven and earth?"

"So my not wanting to be an immortal and my not being worthy of the Nine Rings Blessing are two completely different things."

"If you want to take this thing, please swear to the Great Dao."

"How about saying that I, Yuan Ruoshui, have never become an immortal and am not the number one immortal in this world?"

Yuan Ruoshui spoke in a sonorous and powerful voice, and the roaring river water seemed to echo him.

On the other side, Dongfang Chaoge's face had turned completely black.

This damned difficult mortal woman, she is not afraid of me...

Yes, she even disdains being an immortal, so naturally she has no fear of immortals.

She actually found a loophole.

Indeed, even though the other party is now a mortal, no one can deny that he was the number one immortal in this world for a quarter of an hour.

And the so-called first, no matter how short it is, even if it is only for a moment, anyone who becomes an immortal after her, no matter how talented and brilliant he is, can not be considered the first immortal.

The first is the first, and the latecomers can only be behind her forever. Even if the latecomers have higher cultivation, stronger talent, and better luck than her, they can never surpass Yuan Ruoshui in the ranking!
This is because, under the witness of heaven and earth, the immortals in the fairy world, and all living beings in the lower world, Yuan Ruoshui is truly the first person in this world to become an immortal!

Therefore, this halo of praise from all living beings in the world is truly her private property, even though she is no longer an immortal!
