The Path to Immortality of Silly Pillar in the Courtyard

"Nie Xiaoqiu, you have also offended the Li family. Now you have no choice but to hand over the spiritual treasure to me, and we can deal with the Li family together."

After hesitating for a while, Nie Xiaoqiu finally nodded. "Big brother, I am willing to hand over the spiritual treasure, but you must promise to protect me and take me to see Brother Xu."

"No problem, I mean what I say." He Yuzhu was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

Upon hearing this, Nie Xiaoqiu no longer hesitated. She opened her red lips and spat out a gray bead the size of a pigeon egg.

"Brother, this is the magic treasure." Nie Xiaoqiu handed the bead to He Yuzhu.

"This thing is a spiritual treasure?" He Yuzhu took the bead and looked at it. It was just an ordinary stone bead, and there was nothing special about it.

He had thought the magical treasure would be glittering with golden light, and he was somewhat disappointed.

Nie Xiaoqiu noticed He Yuzhu's disappointment, and she smiled, saying, "Big brother, you must use your blood essence to bind this bead to its master. This bead is an ancient phoenix's natal magic weapon, called the Muchen Bead!"

"What?" He Yuzhu nearly dropped the bead upon hearing this. He asked in shock, "You mean this is the Muchen Bead?"

Nie Xiaoqiu nodded emphatically, "Big brother, this is the Muchen Pearl. I've been inside. It can open up the imaginary space. One day of cultivation in the imaginary space is equivalent to ten years outside."

"Besides the imaginary space, there is also a weapon-refining room inside. As long as you have rare and precious materials, just throw them into the weapon-refining furnace, and it will automatically refine the magical artifacts you need."

"Holy shit! Holy shit!" He Yuzhu cursed inwardly, his hand holding the pillar trembling slightly.

"Nie Xiaoqiu, how can it recognize me as its master?" He Yuzhu asked after trying to calm himself down.

"Brother, cut your middle finger and drip your blood onto the Muchen Pearl so it can recognize you as its master. I'm a ghost now, so I can't use it anymore." Nie Xiaoqiu said with a look of disappointment.

"Alright." With a thought, a dagger appeared, and He Yuzhu cut his middle finger without hesitation, then dripped the blood onto the bead.

A miraculous thing happened: the moment the bead came into contact with the blood, it transformed into a stream of light and swiftly entered He Yuzhu's forehead.

He Yuzhu trembled, then was overjoyed. He saw a portal appear in his Niwan Palace, a portal that was shining.

"Nie Xiaoqiu, I saw a portal in the Niwan Palace. Is this the entrance to the Muchen Pearl?" He Yuzhu asked uncertainly.

"Yes, brother, you can use your mind to control your soul to enter it for cultivation."

"Manipulate souls?" He Yuzhu wondered, then suddenly realized, and with a thought, he said in his mind, "Enter..."

Suddenly, He Yuzhu, who was sitting on the bed, emitted a burst of light. Then, a human-shaped phantom flashed and entered between his eyebrows, while his physical body on the bed remained sitting there motionless.

"Is this my soul?" He Yuzhu was astonished as a phantom floated in a mysterious space.

Even in his soul state, he didn't feel any difference. He could still look inside his body, and his true energy was circulating smoothly!

He stopped thinking wildly, because he saw two faintly glowing portals in the space.

In his soul form, he floated to the first portal, about to enter, but then he was startled, "My physical body!"

"Holy crap..." He Yuzhu quickly muttered to himself...

His soul re-entered his body, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had been careless and shouldn't have entered the Muchen Pearl in front of Nie Xiaoqiu.

If this woman had attacked him just now, wouldn't she have followed in the footsteps of Tieguai Li, or been trapped in the Muchen Pearl?

Thinking about this, he felt a little scared, but when he looked at Nie Xiaoqiu again, he felt a bit more favorably towards her. This woman was indeed a good person; she hadn't taken advantage of his vulnerability to attack him.

"Xiao Qiu, thank you for the magic treasure. Don't worry, I will take you to find your Brother Xu."

This time, He Yuzhu even changed how he addressed her, making it much more friendly.

"Thank you, brother." Nie Xiaoqiu nodded happily, then frowned and asked, "Brother, I feel the spiritual energy here is very thin, almost imperceptible. What's going on?"

"Xiao Qiu..." He Yuzhu was about to tell the truth, but he swallowed his words back. "Don't worry, I'll take you away from here in a bit."

He knew that the spiritual energy in this world was scarce. In Nie Xiaoqiu's world, after he activated the Purple Cloud Divine Art, he felt a rich purple energy, which must have been the spiritual energy. This explained the existence of those cultivators.

"Brother, if there is no spiritual energy, incense will do. I can absorb the power of incense prayers to cultivate."

"Incense and prayer power!" He Yuzhu smiled wryly. That kind of thing doesn't exist in this world now, but he didn't explain too much to Nie Xiaoqiu.

"Let's go, I'll take you to find your Brother Xu."

He Yuzhu put Nie Xiaoqiu into his pocket again, and then he also entered the space.

When it reappeared, it was still in the same place where the dam had been completely altered, but now it was daylight and the entire dam no longer existed.

"What happened last night wasn't a dream!" He Yuzhu murmured to himself.

Looking at the reservoir that has already dried up, I wonder how the people downstream are doing. It's truly a case of gods fighting while mortals suffer!

The reservoir dam was already surrounded by people, and he saw many soldiers maintaining order.

He Yuzhu did not show himself, but instead moved away from here by moving through the space.

He Yuzhu appeared in a corner of a city.

His attire was completely modern, so it didn't arouse any suspicion from others.

After walking around the streets for a while, he learned that the city was Hangzhou in Zhejiang Province.

"Hehe, no wonder there's a Xu Xian, so he's from Hangzhou." He Yuzhu chuckled to himself, wondering if there was such a person as Fahai.

However, he doesn't have time to verify these things yet. He needs to go to Qingcheng Mountain to find Bai Suzhen and then let Nie Xiaoqiu meet Xu Xian.

…………

"Miss, can I have this phone?" He walked into a mobile phone store; he needed to buy a phone for navigation when he went to Qingcheng Mountain.

"Okay, handsome." The beautiful saleswoman opened the counter, took out a phone, and handed it to He Yuzhu, saying, "This is the latest Da Yan phone, priced at 9999 yuan."

He Yuzhu nodded, reached out and took out a gold bar, placing it on the counter. "Give me a card, and this gold bar is yours."

The pretty shop assistant's eyes lit up, her mouth slightly agape, "Handsome, are you serious? You're not thinking of pursuing me, are you?"

"Miss, you're overthinking it. Hurry up, I have business to discuss."

"Oh, please wait a moment!" The beautiful shop assistant picked up the gold bar with a smile, weighed it in her hand, and then sat down in front of the computer.

A moment later, the pretty shop assistant came over with a SIM card and then inserted it into the phone.

"Alright, handsome, this SIM card has unlimited data, use it as much as you want, make as many calls as you like!"

"Okay, thank you." He Yuzhu said, then turned and left the phone store with his phone.

"Hehe... I'm rich!" After He Yuzhu left, the beautiful shop assistant looked at the gold bars and grinned foolishly.

After leaving the store, He Yuzhu found a secluded spot and merged into the space. With a thought, he reappeared at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

"Signal available." At an altitude of 10,000 meters, He Yuzhu was already covered by his armor, and his cell phone also had a signal and network signal.

He wanted to find a mobile navigation app, but he saw a search engine similar to Baidu. He opened the search engine, thought for a moment, and typed "Fahai" into the search bar.

"Holy crap!" The search results left He Yuzhu speechless; there really was a Fahai.

The phone screen displayed a few simple words: Fahai, abbot of Tianneng Temple, a great master who has attained enlightenment, officially recognized realm: Dharma Aspect Realm.

"Dharma-image Realm?" He Yuzhu immediately typed it into the search bar, asking what realm of cultivation the Buddhist Dharma-image Realm corresponds to.

The page appears, displaying the following Buddhist Dharma realms...
