I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Lin Yi's expression stiffened upon seeing this.

This……

It sounds plausible, and it could explain why the celestial realm would plunder the fortunes of the mortal world.

Plundering fortune is one objective, but eliminating the calamity is the primary objective.

The struggle unfolds among humans, causing bloodshed and calamity. As more people die, the bloodshed subsides.

However, the reason why killing occurs is because the superiors endlessly exploit the inferiors, causing the inferiors to harbor resentment.

However, those in power now are using even more brutal methods to quell the bloodshed, and if this continues, the bloodshed will only intensify.

Lin Yi dared not fully believe it simply because he had obtained the information too easily.

This thing seems to have been deliberately placed here for him to see; it appears to be protected, but is actually completely useless to him. If it were truly important, these things would have been hidden somewhere he couldn't possibly find them.

Perhaps this is what the Goddess of Mount Tai intended?

Lin Yi tightened his grip on the bamboo slip.

Someone else wants to use him as a pawn, but it's unclear what role she intends for him to play.

Lin Yi casually put down this bamboo scroll and looked at another one.

This was quite an eye-opener; the scroll gradually revealed itself to be a register of the gods of Heaven, listing all the powerful deities below the Five Heavenly Emperors.

The bamboo slips that follow contain detailed information about these deities.

The first volume happens to be about the God of War.

At that moment, Lin Yi seemed to understand what the Goddess of Mount Tai wanted to do.

But when a knife is handed to you, how can you refuse it?

written request for leave

It's my future mother-in-law's birthday, I have to go out for a bit, I'll be back later to update.

I got drunk, I'll make up for it tomorrow.

I intended to write something when I got back, but I was too tired and only vaguely remember writing something. I'm going to sleep now and will definitely finish it tomorrow.

Chapter 543 Entrapment

Lin Yi didn't know what his relationship was with the Goddess of Mount Tai, nor did he know what the Goddess of Mount Tai's relationship was with the gods of the celestial realm, but none of this prevented him from gathering intelligence.

It's okay to be someone's pawn, as long as he can grow and achieve his goals, and one day those who play the game will understand the consequences.

These files contain a detailed account of the God of War's life.

This is certainly much more detailed than the Demon-Slaying Manual, which is just like an illustrated guide that provides some basic information.

Its more important function is to plunder others to strengthen itself.

With these files, Lin Yi was even more powerful.

These files filled in the gaps in Lin Yi's understanding of the Heavenly Court's pantheon. At least in the future, when he encountered immortals in the celestial realm, he would have a general idea of ​​what level of power they were facing.

Immortals like Lan Yu dared not even mention the names of those gods, so Lin Yi had no way of knowing about them. But now, this information was openly recorded in the files of the Taishan Niangniang Temple, allowing Lin Yi to look through them.

First of all, the supreme one is called the Great Heavenly Venerable, but the title of the Goddess of Mount Tai is not detailed here.

He was only mentioned briefly; this was the Lord of the Three Realms, the Great Celestial Venerable with the highest status and strongest power.

Below the Great Celestial Venerable are the Three Pure Ones, the Four Emperors, the One Buddha, the Two Saints, the Five Emperors, the Six Venerables, and the Seven Fairy Maidens, listed in no particular order. These are the second-ranking figures in the Heavenly Court.

The name is not specifically described here either, but Lin Yi had read the novel in his later years and could roughly guess it.

The Three Pure Ones and Four Emperors likely refer to the Three Pure Ones and four great emperors: the Northern Purple Star, the Southern Longevity Star, the Upper Palace Gouchen, and the Empress Houtu.

The Buddha likely refers to the Buddha, the two saints may be the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother, and the Five Emperors are the Five Heavenly Emperors of the Five Directions.

As for the six deities and the seven fairies, Lin Yi really couldn't guess.

There are too many people; it's hard to guess.

But whether he guesses or not doesn't matter, since Lin Yi won't be facing off against a god of this level at this stage anyway.

Once he's ready to face off, he'll probably have accumulated enough strength, and then it won't matter whether he knows anything about it or not.

By the time it came to the third tier, the files of the Goddess of Mount Tai were completely unrecorded, and some people's underwear was almost completely exposed.

The first strike was against the God of War.

"The God of War, whose real name is Zhou Yu, is a disciple of the Heavenly Emperor Gouchen. He entered the Dao through martial arts and is skilled in physical combat techniques..."

There is a divine artifact, bestowed by the Heavenly Emperor Gouchen, named Purple Light Shadow. It moves like lightning and is as swift as thunder. With this artifact, Zhou Yu's strength greatly increased.

His natal divine weapon, the Heavenly Pivot Silver Dragon Spear, can be wielded with the power of a dragon, possessing the divine ability to slay. Ordinary divine weapons cannot directly contend with it.

This dossier lists the God of War's resume and abilities, including the treasures he possesses.

There was even a little story added later, saying that one day the God of War was preaching and asked the immortals what the way of martial arts was.

The immortals who listened to the sermon spoke freely, and the God of War offered guidance to each of them, creating a very peaceful atmosphere.

Until a celestial being proposed that martial arts was the way to victory, and that any method could be used to win. If two people were to duel, they could gather as much information as possible about the other party beforehand, understand their weaknesses, and weaken or even kill them before the fight even began.

Upon hearing this, the God of War was furious and denounced the other party as a disgrace to the martial arts, expelling him from the martial lineage.

As the master of martial arts, the Martial God has already taken control of martial arts and can be said to have the power of life and death over practitioners of this path.

This is why, once a major road is controlled by someone, it is basically controlled by that person indefinitely.

If anyone else cultivates this path and is discovered by those in control, they will be expelled so that the person will not have the opportunity to threaten them.

Of course, this story doesn't prove anything. What if the God of War really thought the other party was despicable and morally corrupt?

After the God of War, the records also contained descriptions of other gods such as the God of Water, the God of Fire, and the God of Wind. Without exception, these people were either disciples of one god or nephews of another. As Lin Yi looked at them, he gradually came to understand.

Although the document contains not a single word that says the Heavenly Court is unjust, every sentence speaks of injustice.

Clearly, those ranked third in the Heavenly Court are the disciples or relatives of these powerful figures.

Cultivating immortality is indeed not about fighting and killing, but about understanding human relationships and worldly affairs.

When you're out in the game, you need a powerful figure to protect you.

Without a powerful backer, you're nothing.

The fourth order consists of people who are extremely intelligent but lack connections and are not very strong, yet they are the backbone of the immortal realm.

Below them are some immortals who haven't broken through to the Immortal Venerable level, and none of them are worth recording in the records.

These files were of great help to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi skimmed through the information, not missing a single word. Now that the Goddess of Mount Tai had handed him the knife, he had to hold it firmly.

Even at his speed, it still took him seven days to read through all the files on the bookshelf.

These past few days, the Goddess of Mount Tai has been instructing her subordinates to increase their firepower while she takes Zero One on a tour of her palace.

She drank celestial nectar and ate celestial fruits and spiritual plants. Even though Lingyi cultivated as a fierce ghost, these things greatly benefited her, and her cultivation level increased rapidly.

Seven days later, she felt that she had become several times stronger.

Once she returns to the human world, even if Qu Jing uses the methods Lin Yi left behind, she probably won't be a match for her.

However, Zero One also has its own pride.

As the legal wife, there's no need to bother with these vixens.

To personally engage in a fight would be a disgrace to the first wife.

When she sees Lin Yi again, she'll make sure he knows the truth and then ask him properly how he's going to repay what he owes her!

On this day, the Goddess of Mount Tai suddenly asked, "How is it here?"

"very good."

Since Lingyi was being treated well, he naturally chose to say nice things, praising the palace for its beauty, the food for its deliciousness, and the kindness of the Goddess of Mount Tai.

The Goddess of Mount Tai asked, "Is this place pleasant?"

"of course."

"So, would you like to stay here indefinitely?"

"That won't work."

Zero One decisively refused.

Hmph, she knew that the Goddess of Mount Tai must have something in mind for feeding her so well every day. Sure enough, she wanted to lure her to stay.

No way!

Although it's certainly a pleasant place, seeing the same scenery every day gets rather boring.

She disliked the underworld the most, perhaps due to the shadow left by hell. Although the temple of the Goddess of Mount Tai was different from other places, it was still the underworld.

The Goddess of Mount Tai already knew this would be the answer; she only asked the question to try it out.

"You need to think this through. If you stay by my side, I can ensure your safety. Even without immortal bones, you can cultivate to become an immortal, free from the three calamities and the five tribulations."

But by following him, you are going against the world.

The Goddess of Mount Tai offered one last piece of advice, just like she had back then.

"Are you really going to marry him? He is a mortal, and you are an immortal. The gap between immortals and mortals cannot be bridged by love."

You're wrong. It's not that love can't bridge the gap between us, but rather that the gap between us can't stop us from loving each other.

When you truly fall in love with someone, you'll realize that all interests are insignificant in the face of love.

This is what Zero One said before she got married.

Later, after Lingyi died, she returned to the Taishan Temple. When the Goddess of Taishan saw her, she asked her if she regretted it.

After all, rumors circulated that the man doted on a vixen, caused the queen's death, and had many other female confidantes around him.

But she still didn't regret it. Instead of returning to her immortal status, she chose to strip away all her memories and wander into hell, just to wait for that person to return.
