I have the best bloodline

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden glanced at the auspicious cloud formation, Bai Ze, sneered, turned and walked into the void, leaving behind a cold sentence:

"We originally only wanted the power of inheritance, and had no intention of killing Su Yan. After all, that fox can be considered my brother-in-law."

"I didn't want to see Ruonv sad." The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden's figure disappeared into the cosmos.

"What do you mean?"

The words spoken by the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden made Bai Ze, the auspicious cloud, feel a sense of unease.

Logically speaking, the battle between Su Yan and his original body has ended, and Su Yan is now under the protection of the Queen Mother of the West. It is unlikely that the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden would risk offending the Queen Mother of the West by continuing to attack.

As the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden departed, the Holy Spirits and Divine Beings of the Netherworld gradually disappeared into the void and departed.

In a short while, all the holy spirits and deities of the Netherworld departed from the cosmos.

Bai Ze, the auspicious cloud, sensed something was wrong and transmitted his voice in the direction of Su Yan: "Maintain the effects of the immortality elixir on your body for now, and do not remove it before the Queen Mother of the West comes to take you home. The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden seems to be extremely angry with you, and I am worried that she will secretly do something bad to you."

Su Yan, who was preparing Bai Ze's body for burial, received a telepathic message from Bai Ze of the Auspicious Cloud Group and said with slight surprise, "The dignified Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden wouldn't be such a sore loser and so tasteless, would she?"

"I don't know what she's thinking either. If there's nothing else, let's go back to the mountain." Bai Ze shook his head, feeling that the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden wasn't so bad as to be unable to accept defeat. Losing Bai Ze wouldn't actually affect the overall situation; it would just mean that the Netherworld would have to put in a lot of effort to execute its plan.

Its name is: Ward Off Evil and Bring Good Fortune.

A male-female deity emerged slowly from the void after the entire Netherworld had withdrawn. Looking at the holy spirits and deities of the old order, he drew his bow and aimed an arrow at Su Yan, who was preparing a body for burial, and said:

"My name is Gushe Shenren. I have come here on the orders of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady to congratulate Su Yan and Fellow Daoist Su on their great victory over Bai Ze and the second spiritual treasure they are delighted with."

The Gushe deity looked at Su Yan with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and introduced himself slowly, as if giving Su Yan some time to be on guard.

When all the holy spirits and divine beings, as well as Su Yan, looked at him with astonishment, the Gu She Divine Person released the dazzling golden arrow in his hand and said:

"This is a very auspicious occasion. I hope Fellow Daoist Su will like the congratulatory gift specially chosen by Lady Xuan Nu."

The arrow flew out, not fast, but it carried a sense that there was no way to avoid it.

Gu Jun appeared out of nowhere, reaching out to grasp the arrow shot by the Gu She deity, but what happened next shocked everyone present.

Gu Jun had clearly grasped the arrow, but the golden arrow pierced directly through his palm without leaving the slightest injury. The arrow, like a phantom, passed right through Gu Jun and slowly shot towards Su Yan.

Ruonv frowned and stepped forward to block the arrow, but the result was the same. The arrow shot by the Gushe deity passed through Ruonv's body like a phantom without causing any injury.

Chapter 800 The Gift from the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden

"May it ward off evil and bring good fortune!"

After the Netherworld beings left, the Gu She deity, who had not shown her face until now, emerged from the void carrying a large red bow. With a look of helplessness and melancholy, she drew her bow and shot a dazzling golden arrow.

The arrows were not fired quickly, just like arrows shot by an ordinary person. No matter how you looked at them, you could only feel a sense of weakness and powerlessness.

However, this single arrow pierced straight through the grasp of Gu Jun, the son of Zhuyin, ignored Ruonv's obstruction, and headed straight for Su Yan, who had defeated Bai Ze.

"That is... the power of merit!"

One by one, the holy spirits displayed their divine powers and magic, attempting to block the arrows that the Gushe deity was using to sneak attack Su Yan. However, as the arrows ignored the obstruction of the immortals and shot towards Su Yan's chest without slowing down, the immortals' expressions changed.

Some holy spirits born at the end of chaos, or at the beginning of the primordial era, seemed to realize something upon witnessing the characteristics of the arrows of the Gusha deity, and cried out:

"This is terrible! The God of Gushe has given all the merit he has accumulated in his life to Immortal Master Su!"

The reason why arrows emitting a dazzling golden light cannot be intercepted is actually related to their characteristics.

The power of merit is like the power of fortune; it belongs to the power of the wishes of all beings. Its nature and effect are the same as the power of fortune, and it can reveal various incredible and magical powers through different applications.

However, compared to the power of destiny or the power of national fortune, the power of merit is extremely difficult to obtain. But when the power of merit is accumulated to a certain extent, it can even be paid to the Heavenly Dao as a price to obtain a certain degree of power to disrupt the world.

For example, it can disregard the laws of heaven and earth, forcibly glimpse the future, and improve cultivation, or directly enhance a cultivator's fortune.

The arrow shot by the Gushe deity was the embodiment of immeasurable merit. He did not attack Su Yan, but simply gave him his accumulated merit. Those immortals who tried to block the arrow were actually vying for the power of merit from the perspective of the laws of heaven.

Therefore, the immortals could not touch the arrow. The golden arrow was protected by the laws of heaven, and it would only stop in front of Su Yan. No living being could "steal" the merit power that the Gu She deity had given to Su Yan.

Just as the Gu She deity said in his self-introduction, he was actually representing the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden to present Su Yan with a tremendous congratulatory gift.

That gift was a testament to the immeasurable merit he had accumulated through his daily acts of kindness and help to all living beings.

The gift was well-intentioned, but it might not be appreciated by Su Yan right now.

"Immortal Su, immediately retreat from the starry sky and return to Mount Ling!"

The holy spirit who recognized the Gushe Divine Man's move hurriedly shouted at Su Yan: "The immeasurable merit offered by the Gushe Divine Man is a trap. Once the arrow touches your body, it will enhance your cultivation, forcibly raising it to the realm of a divine being, thus attracting a great calamity for the divine beings!"

"The tribulation of the gods is a fire tribulation. The laws of heaven and earth will ignite the essence, energy, and spirit within your body, transforming them into the Samadhi True Fire. With this blazing flame, the secret to the immortality of gods will be forged."

The immortals present changed their expressions drastically. Although they were not clear about Su Yan's current situation, Su Yan seemed to have entered a special state, with endless vitality and creative power within his body, making him almost immortal.

In such a state, if one were to ignite the Samadhi True Fire formed from one's own spiritual energy, even the immortals would find it hard to believe that such a raging fire could be produced.

It is likely like a great sun, capable of illuminating half of the primordial immortal realm.

"It can improve cultivation level!?" Upon hearing this, Su Yan couldn't help but gasp.

He is currently in immortality elixir mode, with his internal energy so vigorous that he can fight the Holy Spirit hand-to-hand. He can even be reborn from a drop of blood after death. It is unimaginable what the Samadhi True Fire would be if such energy were ignited.

"Little fox, you'd better run faster." Just as Su Yan's face showed surprise and uncertainty, Empress Dowager Su's voice rang out from the depths of his heart:

"To be honest, my current cultivation level is actually at the late stage of True Immortal, while the Holy Mother Xuantong is at the initial stage of Divine Human, but because of the special location of Yinglong Treasure Vault, she has not undergone the Divine Human Heavenly Tribulation."

"I suspect that the reason why the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden sent the Gu She Divine Person to deliver this great gift is probably to detonate our divine tribulation at the same time. After all, the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden knows of our existence."

The moment Empress Dowager You Su saw the golden arrow, a strange emotion welled up in her heart.

It is the feeling of panic and trepidation that a prey experiences when it steps into a trap.

The seemingly leisurely golden arrow actually contains immense and terrifying killing intent.

"Miss!"

Su Yan sighed. He had no choice but to suspend the process of preparing the mutated Bai Ze's body for burial and hastily store its remains in the Universal Space.

With a low shout from Su Yan, the shadow of the Queen Mother of the West, which had been hidden in the void, broke through the air and arrived. With a wave of her hand, a dark light pierced through the starry sky and struck the golden arrow.

The existence of the shadow of the Queen Mother of the West was intended by Su Yan to be used to assassinate the mutated Bai Ze. However, as the methods left behind by the senior Bai Ze were unfolded one by one, the shadow of the Queen Mother of the West that Su Yan had hidden in the void was naturally not used.

The dark light containing the source of all plagues struck the golden arrow directly. The moment they made contact, endless light and heat appeared in the starry sky, churning, spreading, intertwining, and annihilating each other. The power of the source of all plagues collided with the laws of nature.

A milky white divine light shot out from Kunlun Mountain and enveloped Su Yan.

In an instant, Su Yan's figure disappeared into the cosmic star field within the Starry Sky Continent.

Although the Queen Mother of the West did not come, in addition to giving Su Yan an elixir of immortality, she had secretly prepared some measures. If Su Yan was defeated or encountered an insurmountable situation, he only needed to call out the name of the Queen Mother of the West in his heart to trigger her rescue measures.

Su Yan's vanished figure re-emerged in front of the white jade platform of Kunlun Mountain, slowly emerging from a bronze full-length mirror. The Queen Mother of the West stood before the mirror, smiling at Su Yan, and said:

"From this day forward, our little fox can proudly say when he goes out that he is the only [Martial God] in the Primordial Immortal Realm."

"The empty fame gained by stepping on the bodies of predecessors is not worth having."

Although Su Yan won against the mutated Bai Ze, he didn't actually feel very happy; in fact, he felt quite uneasy.

After all, his current situation is such that he has become famous throughout the Primordial Immortal Realm by stepping on the corpse of Senior Bai Ze.

"There's no need to be so melancholy. As long as we can defeat the Netherworld and its mastermind, Youchao, we'll have a chance to witness the rebirth of 'Bai Ze' once again," the Queen Mother of the West slowly told Su Yan.

“Divine beasts like Bai Ze are, in a sense, immortal. As long as the responsibilities they bear remain, new Bai Ze will be born in the world every thousand years.”

"Of course, all of this is on the premise that Youchao did not deliberately prevent the self-regulation of the laws governing this place."

The immortal witches are immortal and indestructible, but the mutated Bai Ze died in a rather special way. He could no longer be resurrected by borrowing a trace of true spirit from the Netherworld Soul-Guiding Banner, which is a true death in every sense of the word.

It is also because Bai Ze is truly dead that, as long as Youchao does not deliberately obstruct the self-regulation of the laws of heaven and earth, after a short period of time, this world will give birth to a new Bai Ze to fulfill its duties.

Although it was not the Bai Ze that Su Yan knew, the newborn Xiao Bai and the previous Bai Ze had a relationship like that of parent and child.

Chapter 801 Advancement

"If we can win over the Netherworld, we'll have everything we need. Bai Ze's return won't be difficult either. You don't want to see the helpless, newly born Bai Ze wandering in the Primordial Immortal Realm for a hundred years, making a living by fortune-telling, do you?"

The Queen Mother of the West comforted Su Yan and helped her little fox cheer up again.

"Um"

Su Yan nodded earnestly, feeling that the Empress's words made sense. Although he could not repay Senior Bai Ze's kindness in passing on his skills, he could repay this kindness to the newly reborn Bai Ze.

Of course, to see the reborn Bai Ze, one must defeat the current Netherworld and completely overturn the chessboard and schemes of the will of Heaven.

"By the way, Your Majesty."

Su Yan turned around, feeling a little strange, and looked at the bronze full-length mirror behind him, saying, "How come I've never seen this mirror before?"

The bronze full-length mirror in front of him seemed ordinary, but Su Yan, who had just stepped out of it, could feel that it contained the power of time.

If he were to return to Kunlun Mountain from the Starry Sky Continent, it might take him three minutes. But if the Empress were to guide him home using the bronze floor mirror, she could pull him back to Kunlun Mountain in just an instant.

As a being who had once fallen into the river of time, Su Yan seemed to smell the scent of time above.

"This is the Queen Mother's dowry." The Queen Mother of the West looked at Su Yan with a teasing smile and said, "The Queen Mother would not say such things casually on ordinary days. If you want to know the depth of my knowledge in various aspects, you will have to work hard."

"After all, you don't want to follow in the footsteps of the husband who was the true spirit clone of the Eastern King, do you?"

"Not only did they perish and their cultivation vanish, but they also became the subject of conversation and experiments for the immortals after their deaths."

Of the five Heavenly Emperors, only Di Jun married Xi He after ascending the throne. The other four Heavenly Emperors either waited or had no interest in matters like marriage.

The fact that the true spirit of the Eastern King Duke resigned himself to marry made all beings in the celestial realm deeply understand a principle: there are some things you really shouldn't blame yourself for being unlucky all day long. Sometimes, when a great opportunity is presented to you, you can't seize it if you're not strong enough.

If that person could truly marry the true spirit of the Eastern King Duke, even if it wasn't his original form but merely something close to it, he could at least avoid going down the wrong path for tens of thousands of years. Unfortunately, he was not destined to enjoy the blessing of marrying the true spirit of the Eastern King Duke, which led to his extremely tragic and violent death on his wedding night, becoming one of the topics of conversation and research material for the beings of the immortal realm.

"Your Majesty is leaving now, she's not talking to you anymore." Su Yan wanted to say something more, but he felt a sharp sensation coming from behind him. His expression changed, and he opened a spatial gate on Kunlun Mountain and left.

An arrow radiating brilliant golden light came slowly from the cosmos and shot towards Su Yan.

The Queen Mother of the West glanced at the arrow, but made no move to stop it herself.

The merit arrow shot by the Gushe deity was indeed a crisis for Su Yan, but it was also an opportunity.

Without a great opportunity, even with the resources of the Queen Mother of the West and the Yinglong Treasure Vault, it would take Su Yan at least ten years to advance to the Divine Human Realm, and advancing to the Holy Spirit Realm would be even more distant.

The merit accumulated by the Gushe deity is an extremely precious and rare item.

Once Su Yan is pierced by an arrow, his cultivation will inevitably surge to the Divine Realm in the next instant, saving him more than ten years of arduous cultivation and laying a solid foundation for his future entry into the Holy Spirit Realm.
