CHAPTER 1359: CHAPTER 486: VOICE TRANSMISSION_2

The Transcender, Hongjun, and the Three Pure Ones were placed at the highest position by him.

Following them, slightly below, he placed a silhouette of the Lingxiao Palace; on the left side were the three emperors of the Human Race, and slightly lower on the right were the Dragon and Phoenix Clans...

Soon, the entire mirror was filled by his arrangement.

Li Ping’an’s primordial spirit held his chin and stared intently at these images, his thoughts racing rapidly.

’There must be a hidden subplot behind this, as well as some unmentionable secrets.’

’But the information I currently have is still too little.’

Li Ping’an then fetched a blackboard and listed the issues he was currently puzzled about beside the mirror.

He wrote a series of questions in order:

’Did Fuxi Shi really die? When the Chaotic Behemoth appeared for the first time, who was the shadow that triggered my cloth fragment reaction and drove away the beast?’

’Hongjun says he does not want to intervene in worldly matters, yet why did he urge Houtu to transform into the Six Realms Reincarnation, even somewhat impatiently?’

’Why did Maitreya use the Chaos Bell for arrangement but not utilize it to turn the tide? Is the rebellious power trivial to him? Most experts could be rescued if the Chaos Bell was activated. Isn’t Maitreya in control of the Chaos Bell, and didn’t the Heavenly Dao say all clues lead to Hongjun? So the Chaos Bell must listen to Hongjun?’

’Under the current circumstances, the main world should be fine, so why does the White-robed Celestial Emperor’s beheading calamity still exist? The forewarning of the paternal Divine Skills should be based on the Heavenly Dao deductions, how does the Heavenly Dao’s Faceless One not know?’

’The Heavenly Dao’s Faceless One says the Heavenly Court needs me, why does the Heavenly Court need me? Isn’t the Heavenly Court system already functioning? Am I still necessary? What would be affected if someone else became the Heavenly Emperor?’

’Even though the inner Heavenly Dao gods clearly no longer have incense sources, why not just eliminate them? Is this also part of the Heavenly Dao’s scheme?’

Pong!

Li Ping’an’s primordial spirit emitted a thread of swirling white smoke from the forehead.

The primordial spirit figure spread his arms and fell straight down.

Ever since realizing the Heavenly Dao’s Faceless One deceived him, Li Ping’an felt the sense of security the Heavenly Dao had built for him collapse suddenly.

It’s as if now, he can even sense a certain dark current moving in the shadows of the Desolate Era.

’Forget it, rather than racking my brain here, I’d be better off directly asking the big boss.’

Li Ping’an’s primordial spirit figure roused his spirit and sat upright.

He looked instinctively at his left foot ’wearing a boot.’

Actually, he secretly did a little bit behind the Heavenly Dao’s back, like using the Alien Primordial Spirit cultivation technique, with the advantage of the master primordial spirit inside his battle body, he stealthily created two more subordinate primordial spirits for emergencies.

Currently, his first subordinate primordial spirit is with the main body, the second is in the Heavenly Court, and the third one...

He placed it inside the grand array of Mount Lingjiu while riding the Qingluan Bird to the mountain.

Inside the battle body’s Spirit Platform, Li Ping’an’s primordial spirit continued to be dazed in front of the mirror and blackboard, pretending to be in deep thought with closed eyes.

Meanwhile, within the protection array of Mount Lingjiu, a stone lightly moved, the blue color on it gradually faded, transforming into a fist-sized crab with eight legs crafted from superior treasures.

This crab grew a white cloud under its eight feet, slowly carrying it outside the stone wall.

Why did Li Ping’an leave a subordinate primordial spirit here?

Quite simply, for self-preservation.

The Alien Primordial Spirit Method was created by a certain Transcender; as long as a primordial spirit clone remains, even if the main and other subordinate primordial spirits perish, there’s a chance to rebuild.

Li Ping’an’s biggest reliance now actually comes from this Transcender Teacher, and the relationship with the no-spirit bullet system he devised.

He’s prepared; if he truly perishes outside, he will directly turn to the Transcender, preserving his life first.

Unexpectedly, his third subordinate primordial spirit now not only serves self-preservation but also eases his gathering of messages.

The state of affairs between heaven and earth has changed, and Li Ping’an knows more about the inner secrets.

The small crab raised its left claw.

Li Ping’an resolved fiercely in his heart:

’Once inside, go straight to the point!’

’Surely nothing in this world can escape the Transcender’s eyes; if he is willing to tell the truth, that’s best, if he doesn’t, it suggests he’s colluded with Hongjun, plotting something big together.’

’How to distinguish whether he’s telling the truth? This can only rely on my own judgment.’

Ring ring ring!

The little crab’s claw forcefully tapped the stone wall.

The stone wall displayed shallow ripples, and the little crab was directly absorbed into it, entering the secluded realm where the lesson was taught.

"Can’t hold back any longer?

"I thought you’d wait until the battle body reached Xuan Capital City before you would come to inquire."

The voice from within the coffin carried a hint of mockery:

"Come quickly, the show is about to begin. I’ve prepared some snacks, let’s watch and eat together as teacher and student."

Li Ping’an smiled helplessly. An apparition floated above the crab, with the core of the apparition being a segment of his Primordial Spirit’s toe.

...

Heavenly Court, Tong Ming Palace.

The report of the great victory in the Sea of Blood had been relayed for some time, and the few old ministers remaining here have long passed the stage of celebrating and are engrossed in busy governmental affairs.

The female immortals from the Jade Pool have gradually returned to the Heavenly Court, yet the grand formation of the Heavenly Court remains fully activated.

The Queen Mother of the Jade Pool sat in Tong Ming Palace, and the Kunlun Mirror in her hand reflected Li Dazhi’s figure.

Before Li Ping’an went to campaign, he repeatedly urged her to keep a close watch on her father-in-law. So naturally, the Jade Pool dared not be careless, meticulously observing Li Dazhi’s every move.

When the outside world was at its most dangerous, the Jade Pool had even taken action to directly seal Li Dazhi.

Now, with the crisis at the Sea of Blood resolved, everyone is slowly executing the old ancestor Minghe, so the Jade Pool has naturally released Li Dazhi and sincerely apologized to him.

Li Dazhi would certainly not blame his eldest daughter-in-law for such things.

The eldest daughter-in-law listens to her own son, which makes Li Dazhi happy.

At this moment, Li Dazhi called Ningning Mu to a corner of the Lingxiao Palace, where Wen Rou stood not far away keeping guard. Li Dazhi fished out a ring from his sleeve and handed it to Ningning Mu.

Li Dazhi whispered: "Ningning, do not look at what’s inside this ring. Absolutely do not look, for there will be massive consequences."

Ningning Mu quickly nodded: "Father, am I supposed to give this ring to Brother?"

"Yes, exactly," Li Dazhi sighed, "remember, you must not see what is inside."

Ningning Mu gently pursed her lips and softly said: "Father, if this item is too important, perhaps you should give it to Brother directly."

"It’s more secure for you to hold onto this."

Li Dazhi tucked his hands into his sleeves and, subconsciously, glanced at Wen Rou’s back, with a slightly conflicted expression on his slightly chubby face.

He muttered:

"I won’t hide it from you, there is a tribulation ahead of me. I don’t know when or how it will come, but I suspect it may come this time.

"You need not worry, I’ve made ample preparations. Ping’an has also prepared thirty-six moves for evading tribulations and seventy-two strategies for disaster relief. I should be able to skirt it.

"This is just in case, so keep this item for safe keeping.

"Once I pass this tribulation, or if I’m heavily injured or unconscious, don’t immediately give this item to Ping’an, instead return it to me."

Ningning Mu nodded firmly: "Rest assured, Father, I understand."

"That’s good," Li Dazhi smiled, "Let’s go back to Tong Ming Palace and wait for news."

Ningning Mu raised her hand to assist, but Li Dazhi waved his hand, signaled for Ningning Mu to go ahead first, while he and Wen Rou followed behind, leaving the Lingxiao Palace together.

Wen Rou softly asked: "Husband, what’s wrong?"

"Nothing," Li Dazhi smiled, "Ningning is under a lot of pressure, so I comforted her a bit and gave her a few heirlooms."

Wen Rou covered her mouth with a light laugh and teased: "I know full well where those heirlooms came from. You tried to deceive me back then!"

Li Dazhi chuckled: "At least I did find a pile of real Precious Jade, not a heart-shaped stone to fool you, be content, hahaha!"

Up ahead, Ningning Mu lowered her head and entered Tong Ming Palace.

Li Dazhi and Wen Rou were about to follow, but Li Dazhi suddenly heard a voice transmission by his ear:

"Disciple, come before my portrait, Li Ping’an’s great tribulation is imminent, only you can resolve this plight."

Li Dazhi shivered.

Hong, Hongjun!
