Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 246 People say Luoyang is a riot of color, but I came at the wrong time.
The bright moonlight illuminated the heavens and earth.

"Jiang Zhao."

The man in black chuckled softly and murmured, "That's a nice name."

The boy nodded and said, "You just said that only with a name can an illness be cured."

"This is her name."

The words fell.

Silence fell between the two.

not far away.

Jiang Jian stood there, staring at the scene before him, his heart trembling.

His expression was one of utter horror!

This scene is clearly not in his existing memory!
Jiang Jian only remembered that the man in black asked her name before starting to treat her sister's illness.

There was no further dialogue.

Yet the scene before me felt so real.

“I’m taking a piece of your soul as payment.”

The man in black spoke again, his tone solemn, "It's not to save more people."

Opposite her.

The boy remained expressionless and said, "Since I've already agreed, there's no need to say anything more."

To cure my sister's dissociation disorder, I need to extract my own bloodline as medicine.

And the doctor, as the price for taking action.

It means taking a piece of one's own soul.

The man in black robes remained silent for a long while, then said, "Your soul is different from that of ordinary people."

"Even if it is filled later, it cannot be fully restored."

"If one day you truly cultivate to the point of seeing the spiritual platform, you will be unable to break through due to the loss of your soul."

"Then you can call my name."

"At that time, I will come to the solar system and return your soul to you."

Hear this.

The boy neither agreed nor disagreed, but simply nodded slightly, his expression indifferent.

next second.

The footage of the public care area suddenly shattered.

Both the man in black robes and the boy vanished as tiny fragments of light and shadow.

Jiang's face turned deathly pale, and she stood there dumbfounded.

This memory simply doesn't exist in his mind!

Before this.

Jiang Jian always believed that his missing soul was given to his younger sister along with his separated bloodline.

But the conversation just now...

Yet it is clearly evident.

Although his own bloodline was indeed given to his younger sister.

But the missing piece of his soul was clearly taken away by the doctor, and not used on his sister as he had thought!

"Who has concealed my memories?!"

Jiang Jian came to her senses, her face still pale.

His pupils reflected icy blue flames, and his expression was extremely cold!

Subconsciously.

He reached out his palm and touched his sleeve.

There, there was a transparent storage bracelet.

This bracelet was crafted using a spatial core, and its technological level has reached an unbelievable level.

same.

The space core is also the spacecraft's transition core.

Inside lies a secret known only to Jiang Jian herself.

Only he could access the things stored deep within the core of the space.

"No."

"It's not yet time."

Suddenly.

Jiang saw the sharp look in his eyes, paused, and stopped moving.

He forced himself to calm down.

He gathered his thoughts and recalled the scene from just now.

Calm down and think it over carefully.

This memory came after I named Jiang Zhao.

The "Inquiry Formation" in the Hall of Enlightenment is now forcibly displaying this video.

This immediately sparked an association in Jiang Jianxin's mind.

Many memories buried deep in my mind, memories I've never recalled from beginning to end.

In an instant, it surged forth like a tide!

After a long time.

Jiang Jian looked somewhat dazed.

"turn out to be."

No one has concealed my memories.

"It was my own subconscious that unknowingly buried this memory."

Think of this.

Deep in his mind.

Suddenly, there was a tremor.

Sometimes, a person's subconscious will deliberately bury memories in order to protect themselves.

"That's why I've hidden this memory."

Was I subconsciously protecting myself?

As his thoughts raced, Jiang Jian felt a chill run down his spine, and many previously unclear matters suddenly became clear.

A piece of soul was taken away by the physician.

The implications behind this action are far too heavy.

The doctor cured my sister's illness.

But what she did was to strip off her own bloodline to use as medicine; to cut off her own soul, and to say with certainty that she would go and save more people.

Is this true or false?

Even now, Jiang Jian still can't tell the difference.

She said she would return the soul.

This statement should not be easily believed.

My past memories have been somewhat blurred by my subconscious.

What doctors say is a mixture of truth and falsehood, and cannot be entirely trusted.

Suddenly.

A bolt of lightning flashed across my mind, exploding with a deafening roar!

"Only those at the Spirit Platform Realm can repair their souls."

"But without the soul, one cannot perceive the spiritual platform!"

Jiang Jian recalled the scene just now, her face turning ashen.

His body suddenly trembled!
With a damaged soul, one cannot even perceive the spiritual platform!
Without being able to see the spiritual platform, one naturally cannot repair the soul!

It's a vicious cycle!
Reaching the Spirit Platform Realm and completing one's soul is, from beginning to end, a complete deception!

This information is what this memory truly wants to hide!
"turn out to be."

"The Spirit Platform Realm is nothing but a mirage."

"I have long since lost the qualification to glimpse the spiritual platform."

Jiang Jian stood still, his spiritual energy surging wildly around him, his knuckles clenched so tightly they turned white.

What doctors say can be true or false.

Given Jiang Jian's character, she would never entrust her fate to someone else.

She took that piece of soul, regardless of whether it will actually be returned in the end.

Jiang Jianxin had no hope.

Think of this.

His mind was as hard as iron.

In that instant, there was a brief moment of hesitation.

Available in the next second.

Jiang Jian's pupils narrowed, and his gaze turned cold once more!
His resolve was even stronger than before!
"The Wonderland of Yinshan, the Soul-Weaving Stone!"

"Shen Qingchan, a gift from the gods!"

"Both of these methods can repair my soul!"

"I still have a chance!"

His mind was racing with thoughts.

His expression even held a hint of madness!

"The world is vast and boundless."

"There must still be other methods to repair the soul in this world!"

"anyway."

"I will definitely be able to restore my soul, see the spiritual platform, and continue to live."

"I won't die."

"Never."

Jiang Jian closed his eyes.

A few seconds later.

He opened his eyes again.

Deep within the pupils, a terrifying vortex swirls.

Now.

Jiang Jian had already noticed.

The reason why one's subconscious mind hides this memory is because...

I'm afraid this information will affect my belief in spiritual practice.

after all.

If one had known beforehand that their soul was damaged, they would not have been qualified to see the spiritual platform.

If it were someone else, they probably would have lost all interest in cultivation and would have wasted their remaining years in self-abandonment.

The Spirit Platform Realm can repair the soul.

However, if the soul is damaged, one is not even qualified to glimpse the spiritual platform.

This truth can indeed be a huge blow to one's cultivation mindset.

It is one of the most terrifying things in the world to have no results despite all efforts.

suddenly.

Jiang Jian raised his head and looked ahead.

His gaze sharpened once more.

"This is a scene from when I was being treated."

Fragments of light and shadow scatter and reassemble, revealing a new scene.

Public care center, on a wooden bed.

The girl sat quietly, her eyes gleaming with a surging silver light.

Beside her, the man in black robes reached out his palm and placed it on her head, looking surprised.

"They actually awakened their bloodline a long time ago."

The man in black raised an eyebrow and stopped what he was doing.

For a moment, he hesitated.

"never mind."

"Since we've taken a piece of his soul..."

"I won't take your bloodline."

The man in black robes flicked his fingers, took out a stream of silver light, and gently placed it on the girl's forehead.

The girl's pupils already had a silvery sheen.

This extra stream of bloodline light appeared.

His eyes were silver-white, even colder and more piercing! "Integrate the bloodline that your brother was stripped from into your body as well."

"At this moment, your bloodline is so concentrated, tsk tsk."

The man in black robes looked at the girl and exclaimed in admiration.

The girl sat on the bed, her face blank, without saying a word.

at the same time.

Jiang Jian realized that his perspective came from the corner of the house.

On the table was a wooden sword.

This scene was captured by Han Guang.

The Han Guang Divine Sword was a divine gift bestowed upon him from birth, and it was connected to his soul.

The images he captured have long been stored away and placed deep in his memory.

"turn out to be."

"Jiang Zhao had already awakened his bloodline."

Looking at the scene before him, Jiang Jian suddenly realized what was happening.

Then I remembered.

Once, I left the public care center. My younger sister hadn't received treatment yet and was mentally impaired.

But inexplicably, she resolved the problem on her own, causing a boy to disappear into thin air, without ever needing to use her backup plan.

That incident remained etched in Jiang Jian's mind, brooding with doubt.

Now it seems.

It was in her younger sister's bloodline that the awakening had already taken place.

Even if someone is mentally impaired, they still possess a certain degree of self-protection ability.

"so."

"Jiang Zhao now not only possesses his original bloodline, but also, with the help of a doctor, has had the bloodline that I had separated integrated into him."

"The concentration of its blood has reached an alarming level."

Jiang Jian's thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, but did not linger for long.

He raised his eyes, constantly gazing at the scene before him.

Unknowingly.

He developed admiration for Xu Suanzhenjun.

Xu Suanzhenjun, as a being in the Lingtai Realm, set up the "Dao Wen Da Zhen Zhen" (Great Dao Inquiry Array), the effect of which is beyond imagination!

This formation can actually recall memories.

This allows the memories hidden in the subconscious of every living being to be clearly revealed!
It allows those who enter the formation to face their true selves!
As Jiang Jian focused on his inner thoughts, he sighed at the Di Yue Academy's painstaking efforts in cultivating Divine Palace Realm cultivators.

The Earth-Moon Academy's educational system for gifted students is so sophisticated it's terrifying.

For the first year, a designated training location was set up to rapidly improve one's spiritual cultivation.

The time that follows.

They will also arrange a large amount of cultivation resources, as well as various official positions, both openly and secretly.

It is used to refine one's character and cultivate one's inner qualities.

When the students of the academy have cultivated their spiritual essence to its fullest extent, they will return to the sacred mountain.

They will then visit the four core buildings of the academy: the Hall of Enlightenment, the Hall of Facing the Wall, the World Vortex, and the Hall of Breaking Through Realms.

This process is as follows.

If this student still cannot break through to the Divine Palace Realm, it only means that he is wasting his talent, is too useless, and has completely lost his value for cultivation.

There is only one fate awaiting these students.

That is, being expelled from the Earth Moon Academy and removed from the Second Realm.

"What a magnificent Dao-seeking formation!"

Jiang Jian stared intently at the constantly changing scene.

My heart trembles from time to time.

Many of his past memories were deliberately forgotten by Jiang Jian.

But now.

Under the influence of this "Inquiry Formation".

All the hidden scenes have been clearly revealed.

This made Jiang Jian constantly temper his inner self.

Their mental cultivation, even to the point of being visible to the naked eye, was forced to improve.

Because these memory images, like the previous advertisements, cannot be turned off; they are all forced to play.

It felt like a long time had passed.

It seemed like only a moment.

The palace finally fell silent.

Jiang Jian stood up, his expression calm, flicked his sleeve, turned around, and walked into the darkness at the palace gate.

Before I knew it, a month had passed.

Jiang Jian used up most of the 10 Autumn Water Spirit Essences.

His spiritual cultivation at the Spring of Life Realm has almost reached its limit!
Compared to improving one's cultivation realm.

Jiang's biggest takeaway was that, for the first time, he faced his own inner self.

Cultivating one's mindset has greatly improved my abilities.

Cultivate your mind and become more resolute.

Although the goal of my spiritual practice has deviated slightly from before.

But Jiang Jian knew the truth.

Even if I hadn't come to the Dao Inquiry Formation, I would have figured this out sooner or later.

The Lingtai Realm is essentially a leap in the level of life.

It requires that all living beings be pure in origin, have complete spirits and souls, and be in perfect harmony.

If the soul is incomplete, the spirit platform must never be seen.

"Yinshan is the seat of Ksitigarbha."

"Shen Qingchan".

Thinking about it.

Jiang Jianxin, deep in his mind, once again raised the priority and importance of these two matters!

A month passed.

In the Hall of Enlightenment.

Jiang saw that he had made a great harvest.

However, he did not experience one of the important functions: the ability to comprehend the Divine Illumination Wall in advance.

To attempt to comprehend the Divine Illumination Wall, certain prerequisites are required.

These are two major acupoints, where cultivation is at its peak.

For a month.

While improving his mental state, Jiang Jian also practiced diligently day and night.

However, its vital energy has never been fully cultivated.

and so.

He stayed in the Hall of Enlightenment for a full month.

However, the conditions for comprehending the Divine Illumination Wall were not triggered.

Leave the Hall of Enlightenment.

Jiang Jian didn't linger at all and went straight to a corner where there was a small prayer building.

Release all the divinely bestowed weapons from their bonds.

Level 4 divinely bestowed weapon, Rain-Summoning Azure Word.

Level 4 divine weapon, the Hanging Mountain Seal.

After unbinding the two items.

Jiang Jian simply waved his sleeve and put it into his storage space.

In an instant.

It was clearly perceived.

The spiritual energy in the two major acupoints became extremely pure!

His spiritual cultivation has reached this level.

Even the smallest change has a huge impact.

"The Hall of Facing the Wall, a vortex of the world."

Jiang Jian turned around, his spiritual energy gathering around him, his moon-white robes billowing as he walked towards the Hall of Facing the Wall.

After the problem of mixed spiritual energy was completely resolved.

That's all it takes.

The goal is to fully cultivate the spiritual essence of the Yongquan acupoint and maximize its potential.

Finally, after making all the necessary preparations.

Head to the Hall of Breakthroughs to comprehend the true Divine Illumination Wall!
The divine light shines upon the truth.

The most difficult hurdle is to comprehend the Divine Illumination Wall.

Some prodigies break through in an instant, easily reaching the Divine Palace realm.

Similarly, some people sit in the Breakthrough Hall for years without ever grasping the essentials or entering the Divine Palace.

Suddenly.

Jiang stopped and frowned.

It sensed it.

Inside the storage space, the "Dragon Sparrow" identity device received three messages in a row!
According to common sense.

This is absolutely impossible!

This supernatural identity device never added any friends throughout the entire process.

No one could possibly send a message to this identity device!
Jiang Jian walked to the bottom of the stone gate, casually entered a quiet cultivation room, activated the isolation array, and took out the "Dragon Sparrow" identity device.

beep!
beep!
beep!
The information icons flashed brightly, and the notification sounds grew increasingly shrill!
Jiang Jian paused for a moment, then activated his identity device.

Suddenly.

The information was extremely eye-catching!

These three messages were actually global communications sent by the Earth Alliance to hundreds of billions of beings in the four realms of Earth and the Moon!

The very first global communication made Jiang Jian pause, his expression one of surprise!

"The Realm of the Dead, officially renamed the Netherworld, is now open to all entrances!"

"The Earthly Realm is one of the four realms: Earth, Moon, and Earth!"

"There are two people at the Spirit Platform Realm in the thirty prefectures of the region."

"The True Lord of the Death Realm unjustly killed the Ghost Lord."

"Congratulations to the two True Monarchs of the Spirit Platform Realm for officially becoming one of the leaders of the Earth Alliance!"

"The Earth Alliance Territory Law, the Territory Creature Management Regulations, and the Territory Entry and Exit Rules shall come into effect immediately!"

……

The lunar realm is in turmoil, facing an imminent external enemy.

The once-hidden territory has finally unveiled its mysterious veil to the world.

Jiang saw his finger swipe and looked at the second international communication.

Wait until you see the contents above clearly.

His pupils contracted slightly!

"Except for those with Level 1 bodies and Level 1 minds, all other Earth citizens are to be forced to cultivate!"

"Supervised by the identity device, you must cultivate for at least 4 hours every 24 hours!"

"Ordinary cultivation resources will be distributed uniformly by the local government office!"

"Cultivation subsidies will be converted into Alliance Coins and distributed uniformly!"

"In 100 days, the Earth Alliance will activate the lunar barrier on its own!"

"Launch a deadly attack on the extraterrestrial beings that come to guerrilla warfare!"

"Any Earth citizen who cultivates to the Spring of Life Realm can report to their local government office and apply to go to the Moon Realm!"

"Applicants can receive a massive amount of resources!"

……

This message is very long.

Jiang Jian watched for more than ten minutes, but still couldn't scroll to the bottom.

The Earth Alliance has finally made up its mind.

We will invest massive resources to support cultivation for all citizens!
Furthermore, everyone is forced to cultivate!

Those who outwardly comply but inwardly defy and do not cultivate will not only have their subsidies confiscated, but will also be fined and have their Alliance Coins deducted!
The seventy prefectures on Earth have already been thrown into turmoil!
Jiang Jian and the other students from the academy were in the Second Realm, where the world portal was closed, and they felt extremely quiet.

If it weren't for the identity device, I wouldn't have heard a single word.
