Martial Arts Crossover: Infiltrating a Girls' Chat Group at the Start

In the year or so that he had been in this blessed land, besides obtaining the Bright Jade Bow, a primordial magic treasure, he had also encountered other more precious items.

But either someone else beats them to it, or they lack the strength to take it.

It's so frustrating to be able to look but not take anything; I might as well just leave.

However, they did acquire a considerable amount of innate spiritual materials, including five types of innate treasures, which perfectly matched the five elements.

If calculated by value, the gains are considerable; adding up the scattered gains, the total value definitely exceeds one hundred million merits.

This still excludes the value of the Ming Dynasty jade bow.

Although the Bright Jade Bow is not among the innate spiritual treasures, it is still worth 10 billion merit coins.

Returning to the starting point, with a thought, Lin Zhu escaped from the blessed land.

However, what followed was a significant reduction in merit, and the golden light continued to dissipate outwards.

Although he didn't kill many people in his lucky place, he still killed quite a few, and now he's being punished for it.

The cultivators who came out at the same time as him were also like this; some even had their merits dissipate and their karmic red light increase.

"Wait a minute, this isn't right!" Lin Zhu looked up at the sky and shouted, "This is self-defense, okay? Does that mean if someone wants to kill me, I can't even fight back?"

He subconsciously questioned heaven and earth.

Upon seeing this, the surrounding cultivators quickly distanced themselves, fearing they would be affected by the divine retribution.

In the Pangu Realm, those who question Heaven and Earth, unless they possess great supernatural powers, have generally met with the fate of having their souls scattered.

A clap of thunder seemed to echo the heavens and earth in response to Lin Zhu.

The divine punishment that the cultivators believed in did not come down. On the contrary, all the golden light of merit that Lin Zhu had scattered returned.

"How is this going?"

A scholar-like cultivator, dressed in a scholarly style with a square turban on his head, was slightly surprised. "Has he successfully questioned Heaven and Earth?"

Hearing the loud bang, Lin Zhu felt a lingering fear.

Fortunately, the merits have been restored, so overall it's not a bad thing.

But the surprises weren't over yet.

Another thunderous boom followed, and then a flash of golden light appeared on the horizon.

A golden light of merit dyed the white clouds gold. Judging from its size, it was not large, only about 1,500 acres. It landed on Lin Zhu's head and enveloped his entire body.

The surprise came too suddenly, and he was a little stunned.

The golden light of merit from 1,500 acres formed a halo of merit behind his head, revealing his true nature, which looked very holy.

Chang Ji, the city lord of Chiyun City, was not far away when he saw this scene and was also dumbfounded.

To accumulate merit from 1,500 acres, one must kill 1,500 demons at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortals.

Even ordinary Golden Immortals might not have so much merit to accumulate.

As merit descended, four words appeared in the minds of all cultivators in the Pangu Realm who possessed merit: self-defense.

And the understanding of legitimate self-defense.

From then on, regardless of whether one has accumulated merit or not, as long as it is in the form of legitimate self-defense, killing in retaliation will not deplete one's merit.

The rules of heaven and earth in the Pangu Realm were slightly improved.

Lin Zhu was thus rewarded by Heaven and Earth.

However, some powerful beings have already begun to calculate the existence of Lin Zhu, as the perfecting of the rules of heaven and earth has not occurred for hundreds of eras.

An alert was issued in the chat group.

Big Sister: Little Bamboo, I'm under a lot of pressure right now, so I won't be able to shield you from the secrets of heaven.

Lin Zhu: Wait, is someone with great supernatural powers trying to predict my fate? You won't be discovered, will you?

Big Sister: As long as I don't shield you from the secrets of heaven, you won't be discovered.

Lin Zhu: Then don't bother blocking it. You can't block it anyway, and we don't know who's making the calculations.

Shang Xiufang: Will my brother be in danger?

Big Sister: Probably not. He's so good-looking, he'd make a great first impression on a powerful person, unless someone is jealous.

Xianle: I haven't seen her in real life, so I won't comment.

Si Qing: Same as above.

The mere thought of someone calculating his fate made Lin Zhu feel uneasy, causing his true self and life soul to tremble slightly and his aura to erupt.

Above the thirty-third heaven, an aged voice reached Lin Zhu's ears, "Fellow Daoists, this child is destined to follow in the footsteps of my Daoist sect and is suitable to inherit my lineage."

Before those words had even finished, another majestic voice rang out, “Brother Taiqing, you are mistaken. This child has made contributions to perfecting the order of heaven and earth and should be destined to join our Chan Sect.”

"Hmph, this boy's sword intent is surging, daring to brandish his sword to the heavens. He should join my Tongtian Sect. Jin Ling, quickly descend to the mortal realm, this boy will be your last disciple."

"Taiyi, why don't you wake up at once and take your disciple into my Chan Sect?"

"Since both of you brothers are willing to accept this boy as your disciple, then this humble Taoist will not compete." Outside the Thirty-Three Heavens, the Supreme Lord Laozi closed his eyes and continued refining elixirs.

"What an interesting little fellow! Would you like to come to my Nuwa Palace?"

Lin Zhu hadn't recovered from the shock of hearing those three voices when another bombshell dropped.

"Yuqing Yuanshi (Shangqing Lingbao) greets Goddess Nuwa."

“Fellow Daoists, there’s no need to be so polite. It’s fair competition! I’ll also send a disciple over. After all, two of my disciples in Nuwa Palace have some connection with this little guy, so it’s fate.”

At this moment, Lin Zhu finally recovered and was about to greet him.

But his body froze, unable to move.

"You don't need to be so polite. Wait for them to arrive first, and then choose whether to join the Chan Sect or the Jie Sect. Of course, it would be even better if you could choose the Nuwa Palace."

Nuwa's voice was very gentle, like flowing water, which made Lin Zhu feel very comfortable.

Unable to speak aloud, he could only silently reply, "Yes!"

Then, two streams of light from the laws spanned across the Pangu Realm.

One is from west to east, and the other is from top to bottom.

"I didn't expect you two fellow Daoists to be in such a hurry. The calamity of the Investiture of the Gods has passed, so it's best not to fight over it out of spite."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, even if we fight, we will never harm the innocent, much less the Pangu Realm."

This is the voice that reaches the heavens.

"You two now need to have the power to harm the Pangu Realm."

A cold snort came, the voice carrying a hint of disdain.

Who is this?

Lin Zhu was taken aback. Could there be some unexpected changes?

Chapter 725 Lin Zhu: Weak and Helpless

After that sound came out, Yuanshi and Tongtian fell completely silent.

Nuwa said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Houtu, what brings you here as well?"

Houtu said calmly, "Isn't it because I'm worried that those two will cause some trouble again? However, this little guy is indeed quite good-looking. Fellow Daoist Nuwa, your craftsmanship is truly the best in the Pangu Realm. You can't find another one like him in the Pangu Realm, can you?"

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. It's a pity that this appearance is a natural creation of the Great Dao, not something I made myself."

Lin Zhu felt a touch on his face, and then wisps of creative energy seeped into his body.

He felt the innate spiritual energy around him desperately trying to penetrate his body. He had already reached the ninth level of the Celestial Immortal realm and was able to immediately trigger the True Immortal Tribulation to complete his breakthrough.

Now, it's a natural progression to a true paradise.

However, because his aura was masked by an even more powerful aura, the True Immortal Tribulation did not arrive as expected.

"Humans are indeed a race with extremely high potential. Even those with acquired physiques can achieve great things. This child has cultivated the techniques of my Underworld and should rightfully belong to my Underworld. Yuanshi and Tongtian, you should stop arguing."

"Your Majesty Houtu is greatly mistaken. Our Chan Sect upholds the doctrine of expounding the heavens and earth and acting in accordance with the will of heaven. This child is the best choice to join our Chan Sect."

“I disagree. This child is extremely talented and can achieve enlightenment with just a little guidance. He should join our Jie Sect. If he joins the Chan Sect, it would be a waste of his precious gem.”

"Tongtian, are you determined to make things difficult for me?"

"So what if I am? What can you do to me?"

Tongtian has become somewhat unrestrained.

Listening to these two big shots bickering, Lin Zhu felt a chill run down his spine. He realized he had been caught in the crossfire and might die if he wasn't careful.

I wonder if the chat group can help me revive if I die like this, and whether the Nirvana Phoenix Flame will work.

"Tongtian, don't be unreasonable." Yuanshi suppressed his anger and spoke in a very harsh tone.

"I'm being unreasonable? Hah!" Tongtian laughed in anger. "Back when you guys ganged up on me, you should have thought this day would come."

“That matter is over and done with, and you didn’t suffer much loss,” Yuanshi argued forcefully. “On the contrary, my Chan Sect suffered a great loss.”

Speaking of this, Tongtian laughed again, "Haha, that's what you deserve. Four of the Twelve Golden Immortals betrayed the sect, and a vice leader also left."

“Hey, Tongtian, your eldest disciple is now the Buddha, so there’s no need to gloat.”

Houtu stabbed Tongtian in the back.

Tongtian was stunned, then felt extremely depressed and wanted to go to the Tushita Palace.

"Lady Houtu, we were wrong. Please have mercy on us." This was the voice of Laozi, and his tone was very gentle.

Back then, the three of them, along with two from the West, made up a total of five Dao Lords in a great battle, causing immense suffering and placing a huge burden on the reincarnation system, almost causing it to collapse.

Upon hearing this tone, Tongtian, who was initially furious, was no longer so impulsive.

At that moment, a beam of golden starlight descended, and the Holy Mother of Golden Spirit, also known as Doumu Yuanjun, descended to earth and appeared before Lin Zhu.

She wore a magnificent golden Taoist robe adorned with celestial stars, a phoenix crown on her head, and exuded a dignified and resolute aura, befitting a queen.

"Hey hey!"

Before the Golden Spirit Mother could even get her footing, a plump body fell from the sky, bounced a few times on the ground, and landed right in front of Lin Zhu.
