Lin Bei, however, became interested. He paused on his way out, smiled faintly and turned around.

"Honestly, Celia, you should be able to sense that my strength is far superior to yours. Aren't you curious about how strong I am? How about we fight to see if it works? Don't worry, I won't kill you."

Celia was stunned for a moment, and then anger appeared on her face: "Boy, considering your age, you still have to call me ancestor. I naturally know how powerful you are, and I also know that I can't stand a single move in your hands. Don't think that provoking me will work, get out of here!"

Lin Bei naturally knew that this was Celia's defense being broken. He originally didn't want to cause trouble for himself by provoking Celia, he just wanted to see him break down.

Now that his goal had been achieved, he smiled with satisfaction and slowly left the garden.

At this time, the sun was setting outside the garden. All the candidates had left, and only Fulilian and Philen were still waiting for him.

As soon as she saw Lin Bei, Fulilian stretched out her hand to Feilun calmly: "I won, and Lin Bei failed to become a first-level magician. It was a dessert as promised."

Feilun pouted and patted Fulilian's palm reluctantly, then raised his head and looked at Lin Bei with dissatisfaction: "Master Lin Bei, aren't you more powerful than Master Fulilian? Why didn't you pass it either?"

Lin Bei shrugged and said helplessly: "In terms of strength, I do have an advantage, but I can't beat Celia's powerful background. I'm not interested in falling out with the Empire. So let it be. Anyway, it's fine as long as you pass."

After hearing this, Philen did not ask any further questions. It is true that the present is not like a hundred years ago, when strength was respected. It was only after the rise of the empire that there were rules and regulations to constrain things.

For example, if you want to go to the North, you must be accompanied by a first-level magician.

Although the process was tortuous, at least the goal was achieved and they could set off immediately.

Compared to Fulilian, Philen and Xutark who were all slightly excited, Lin Bei touched his chin and stopped behind the three of them.

Fulilian was the first to notice it. She turned around and looked at Lin Bei calmly: "Are you leaving?"

Feilun and Xiutalk were a little confused: "Where is Lord Linbei going? Isn't he going to the North with us?"

Fulilian explained casually: "Lin Bei is going to go with us, but this Lin Bei is leaving."

Her explanation was equivalent to no explanation. Philen and Xutark were completely confused. In the end, they did not ask any further questions. They just stood aside silently and looked at Fulilian and Lin Bei.

Lin Bei really wanted to part with them.

We have all seen the strongest magician, so the demons in this world must not be that powerful. Fulillian's strength is enough to solve the problem.

Moreover, now that he had obtained the clone's magic props, he didn't want to stay here even more.

Lin Bei hesitated for a moment, then smiled faintly at Fulilian and held out his hand: "Yes, I am leaving. I have enjoyed spending time with you for a long time. Fulilian, don't forget the magic I taught you."

Fulilian curled her lips slightly and reached out to hold Lin Bei's hand: "I have been very happy during this period of time. I hope we can meet again if we have the chance."
-
In the new world, the surrounding temperature is very low, like being in a cave.

Newcomer Lin Bei heard the sound of fierce wind coming from all around him, accompanied by a scream and a deep and loud shout: "Lin Bei, save her!"

Lin Bei suddenly opened his eyes and saw that he was indeed in a rocky cave. The light in the cave was dim, but he could clearly see countless red ropes hanging all around.

A thin figure was tied tightly with red ropes and was being dragged deep into the cave.

Behind Lin Bei, there was an elderly middle-aged man holding a fishing rod and chasing after him with a serious expression.

When he saw the man in tattered clothes and with a goatee, and heard him constantly calling "Xiao Jiu", Lin Bei knew that he had entered the mysterious space after traveling through time, so he was naturally clear about the situation.

This is the world of "Jiang Ziya".

In "Jiang Ziya", Jiang Ziya, a disciple of Kunlun, led the gods to capture the nine-tailed fox Su Daji who had bewitched the Shang Dynasty during the Conferred God Battle. Just when Jiang Ziya was about to be conferred a god, he was shocked to find the soul of an innocent girl inside the nine-tailed fox.

Because of this incident, Jiang Ziya failed to behead the nine-tailed fox as ordered by the gods, which resulted in him being demoted to the mortal world, losing his divine power, and being despised by the world.

His master Yuanshi Tianzun believed that Jiang Ziya was bewitched by the nine-tailed fox, so he placed him in the North Sea to reflect and repent, and would not let him leave the North Sea and return to heaven until he realized the truth.

Ten years passed in a blink of an eye. Jiang Ziya met a girl named Xiaojiu in the North Sea. Xiaojiu's soul was exactly the same as the innocent girl's soul he saw in the body of the nine-tailed fox.

In order to find out the truth of that year, Jiang Ziya chased Xiaojiu and left the North Sea. Xiaojiu was going to find her father, and Jiang Ziya temporarily went with her and embarked on the journey to find the truth.

Lin Bei in this world was born and raised in Beihai, but he had a very good relationship with Jiang Ziya, so he took the initiative to follow Jiang Ziya to leave Beihai and follow them all the way to find the truth.

At this moment, they were in the territory of the God of Marriage. Xiaojiu was tied up by the God of Marriage, and he and Jiang Ziya were about to chase after him to rescue Xiaojiu.

As for why the God of Marriage wanted to capture Xiaojiu, Lin Bei knew it clearly.

The God of Marriage is King Zhou. He obviously sensed a familiar aura on Xiaojiu, so he tried to arrest him.

Because Xiaojiu is locked with a fate lock, which connects both sides. They live together and die together. The fate lock cannot be unlocked. As long as one of them is found, the other can be found.

King Zhou was looking for his beloved concubine, Su Daji.

Thinking of this, Lin Bei shook his head helplessly. Just then Jiang Ziya came to his side. Jiang Ziya frowned slightly and looked at Lin Bei, a little hesitant: "What's wrong with you today? You seem a little absent-minded. Move faster, Xiaojiu is in danger."

Lin Bei knew that Xiao Jiu was not in danger for the time being. He shook his head and hurried forward with a calm expression: "It should be something in this cave that affected me. It's okay, let's go and find Xiao Jiu."

Jiang Ziya didn't notice anything unusual about Lin Bei. He nodded slightly and quickly followed Lin Bei's pace.

When the two entered the deepest part of the cave, they saw a high platform in front of them. The platform was covered with red ropes. The crazy King Zhou pressed Xiao Jiu to the ground, strangled her neck with both hands, and laughed crazily: "My beloved, where did you hide my beloved? Give my beloved back to me!"

Xiaojiu was almost strangled to death by him. Perhaps she felt her life was threatened. A faint purple light suddenly burst out from her body, which bounced King Zhou away and instantly filled the entire cave.

Before Lin Bei could react, Jiang Ziya's expression changed drastically, and he murmured, "Nine-tailed." King Zhou rolled on the ground, and he got up in a panic. He looked at the purple light scattered in the air that formed the shape of a fox in disbelief, and then glared at Xiao Jiu with a crazy voice so sharp that it could pierce the eardrums: "You, you are the nine-tailed fox. It's you who harmed my beloved concubine. It's you who bewitched my beloved concubine. It's all you!"

The dark purple light quickly dissipated in the air, and Xiao Jiu suddenly came back to her senses. She covered her neck and got up from the ground, coughing and looking around in panic: "I, I am not, I am not the nine-tailed demon fox, I came to Youdu Mountain to find my father..."

As he spoke, Jiang Ziya walked slowly over and came in front of Xiao Jiu.

He looked down at Xiao Jiu expressionlessly, his eyes full of solemnity: "You are Jiuwei... There is no father for you in Youdu Mountain."

As he spoke, Jiang Ziya slowly raised the wooden stick in his hand and pointed it at Xiao Jiu in front of him.

Seeing this, Lin Bei shook his head helplessly. He stepped forward quickly, stopped Jiang Ziya, and whispered: "Are you crazy? Don't you want to find the truth? Do you really want to kill Xiao Jiu before you know anything? Didn't you see that she has a fate lock on her? If she is Jiuwei, then who is on the other side of the fate lock?"

Jiang Ziya was stunned for a moment and stopped what he was doing.

After Lin Bei's reminder, he vaguely felt as if he was about to touch the truth.

Just when Jiang Ziya was distracted, a "hehe" laugh came from all directions, and then countless black foxes emerged from the dark corners. They rushed towards Xiaojiu and carried Xiaojiu out of the cave.

Lin Bei and Jiang Ziya narrowed their eyes, left the crazy King Zhou where he was, and chased after him quickly.

When they chased to a dense forest, they found that Xiaojiu had disappeared, and in his place was a familiar figure.

As Jiang Ziya and Lin Bei arrived, the figure slowly twisted, as if it was stretching its body, and soon, its nine tails bloomed like petals.

The next second, a humming laugh sounded, and a familiar and soft voice filled the entire forest: "Jiang Ziya, long time no see. After so many years, you are still so indecisive. Of course, I also want to thank you. If it weren't for your kindness, I wouldn't be able to be resurrected today."

Lin Bei already knew that this person was the Nine-tailed Fox, and he also knew the relationship between her and Xiao Jiu, so there was no expression on his face.

But Jiang Ziya didn't know yet. He looked shocked, as if he couldn't believe that the Nine-Tailed Fox could be resurrected. But soon, he said angrily: "What did you do to Xiaojiu?"

There was a sound of chains, and the nine-tailed fox lifted a bright red chain from its arms. At the other end of the chain was the pale-faced Xiaojiu.

Then, just as shown in the original plot, Jiang Ziya learned from the nine-tailed fox that Xiaojiu was actually Su Daji. The nine-tailed fox tied Su Daji and itself together with a fate lock in the bridal sedan when Su Daji was on her way to get married, and then sealed Su Daji, that is, Xiaojiu, in its own body.

Unexpectedly, due to Jiang Ziya's kindness, Xiao Jiu escaped from the body of the Nine-tailed Fox. After falling into the mortal world, he took on a physical body but lost his memory. During his continuous growth, he also provided strength to the Nine-tailed Fox. It is today that the Nine-tailed Fox has been able to see the light of day again.

After learning everything, Jiang Ziya was furious and attacked directly, intending to cut the fate chain between the nine-tailed fox and Xiaojiu.

When Jiang Ziya was flung away by the golden light in the fate lock, Lin Bei finally stopped standing idly by and rescued Jiang Ziya.

He was also waiting for this moment before taking action.

Lin Bei knew the original plot, so he naturally knew that there were more villains than just the Nine-tailed Fox. Behind the Nine-tailed Fox was Yuanshi Tianzun.

But Jiang Ziya didn’t know.

He always waited until Jiang Ziya got a glimpse of the truth before intervening, otherwise Jiang Ziya would not believe him just because he said so.

Just as the golden light bounced Jiang Ziya away and flew high into the sky, Lin Bei knew that the opportunity had come.

Lin Bei leaped up into the air and grabbed Jiang Ziya's shoulders. After landing smoothly, Lin Bei pushed Jiang Ziya aside and said calmly, "It's my turn next."

Jiang Ziya still looked stunned. He looked at the nine-tailed fox in disbelief, then at Xiao Jiu, and finally his gaze fell on the bright red lock of fate.

"Why, just now it was the power of Master... Why?"

Lin Bei raised his hand and used the power of the Shadow King. Black liquid surged out from under his feet. He glanced at Jiang Ziya calmly and sneered, "Why else? Of course your good master is the worst. He was the one who sent the Nine-tailed Demon Fox to bring disaster to the world. He was also the one who disregarded Su Daji's life and tied her and the Nine-tailed Demon Fox together."

After saying that, Lin Bei no longer paid attention to Jiang Ziya. He raised his hand and the black liquid turned into raindrops all over the sky, attacking the nine-tailed fox not far ahead.

Lin Bei didn't kill the opponent with this move, but just tried it out.

The nine-tailed fox suddenly flew up and nimbly avoided the black rain from Lin Bei. The nine-tailed fox narrowed its eyes and its gaze fell on Lin Bei for the first time.

She hesitated and asked arrogantly, "Where did you come from, this unknown person? In just the past ten years, Jiang Ziya, you have such a bold mortal around you? He doesn't think he can defeat me by just learning a few tricks, does he? Jiang Ziya, even when you had divine power, you fought me to a standstill. Now that you have no divine power, do you want to use this mortal to kill me? Humph, you should understand that if you kill me, Su Daji will also die."

Lin Bei didn't like the attitude of the Nine-tailed Fox. He waved his hand, and the black liquid gathered into a long whip and condensed in Lin Bei's hand.

He swung the black whip suddenly and chuckled, "Nine-tailed Demon Fox, the one standing in front of you now is me, Lin Bei. Why do you always look for Jiang Ziya? Jiang Ziya still needs to digest the fact that he was used by his master. In the meantime, let me kill you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Bei flew into the air, swung the long whip in his hand, and pulled out the air with a fierce "snap" sound. The long black whip attacked the nine-tailed fox like a long snake.

The nine-tailed fox was shocked. She didn't expect that this mortal's aura could be so terrifying. The powerful force condensed in the swinging whip was almost comparable to her demonic power.

She hurriedly exerted all her strength to avoid Lin Bei's attack, but was still hit by the tail of the black whip.

In an instant, a sharp pain spread throughout the Nine-tailed Fox's body. A dark purple light surged all over her body. She couldn't help but scream towards the sky. Then, a tail emitting black gas fell off from behind the Nine-tailed Fox. After falling to the ground, it turned into an ordinary fox tail, losing its contained power.

The cutting off of the nine-tailed fox's tail meant the loss of some of its strength. When the nine-tailed fox came to its senses, sweat was already pouring down its head.

Xiaojiu in her arms was also in a bad condition, with a frown on his face and sweat on his forehead.

The nine-tailed fox was furious. She turned around and glared at Lin Bei, warning him coldly: "Boy, I don't care who you are or how powerful you are, but you have to understand that if you dare to hurt me, the same amount of damage will be inflicted on Su Daji through the fate lock."
