All Heavens: Achieving Great Supernatural Powers from the Journey to the West - Chapter 390
c390 Immortal stalactite, Taizong’s wonderful journey
Since Xu Xuanzhi collected many fragments in the Traveler Alliance, the world of Journey to the West has transformed again.
First of all, the strength of Buddha Tianzun has increased again and taken a step further. Then the spiritual energy between heaven and earth became even more intense, even reaching the level of tens of millions of times in the past. As long as they are ordinary creatures in Journey to the West, they are born with extremely long lifespans.
As for the qualifications for cultivation, it has reached a terrible point where everyone has the ability to practice. As long as they are dedicated to the Tao and have the means, anyone can become a major cultivator.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were many people coming and going, and as a holy king, Li Shimin even gained immortality. As long as he remains holy, he can become the eternal human king.
The three realms and six realms belong to the Eternal Great God, the birds belong to the phoenix, the beasts belong to the unicorn, and the water tribe belongs to the true dragon.
The human race on earth naturally submits to a personal king.
These human kings respected Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
After traveling to the west, Tang Sanzang obtained the written Mahayana Sutra, which eliminated the vortex of cause and effect. When he looked south, the weather was smooth and the continent was enlightened.
Due to the peace of the country and the people, this ancient emperor has not been in court for a long time. He is pursuing Taoism in the harem, integrating yin and yang, harmonizing dragons and tigers, and refining hardware and eight stone pills to maintain health.
On this day, Changsun Wuji came to the imperial study and said that he had brought a rare object from heaven and earth.
“Oh? What kind of treasure? Bring it up quickly.” Li Shimin was a little curious.
He knew that after the sudden change of heaven and earth, there were many mysterious things in heaven and earth, but the one that Changsun Wuji could offer personally was definitely the most treasure among treasures.
Changsun Wuji stood up respectfully, took out a round stalactite from his arms, held it up with both hands, and presented it to Li Shimin.
“Your Majesty, this is the immortal stalactite presented by the envoy from the Xiangyun Kingdom in the Western Regions. It is said that after gently licking it, you can temporarily become a free and happy true immortal.”
Changsun Wuji’s words made Li Shimin raise his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised.
What is a true immortal? Since the great changes in the world, several paths of cultivation have become longer and longer, and the status of an immortal has naturally become more noble.
In the past, the true immortals who could occasionally be seen in the palace were all sent out of the realm by the Wuji God Xu Xuanzhi. It was said that they were going to conquer all realms.
“Have you ever tried it yourself?” Li Shimin asked curiously.
Changsun Wuji should have tried this kind of treasure before presenting it to him, otherwise he would not have listened to others’ suggestions and just brought it to him to see.
Immediately afterwards, Li Shimin took a closer look at the stalactite in Changsun Wuji’s hand.
This stalactite was delicately cut into a cylinder, more than a foot long, two fingers wide and bluish in color, without any unusual splendor.
It was precisely because there was no brilliance that Li Shimin had some doubts about the use of this strange object.
“Your Majesty.” Upon hearing this, Changsun Wuji immediately knelt down.
He said to Li Shimin: “I used some scraps of stalactite, and it is true that I can temporarily transform into a true immortal, free from the world. In the blink of an eye, I can cross thousands of rivers and mountains, and I can travel across the universe and go to other worlds.”
Hearing this, Li Shimin’s eyes lit up, and he quickly helped Changsun Wuji up: “My dear! Tell me how wonderful it is to become a true immortal.”
But Changsun Wuji just shook his head: “Your Majesty, I can’t explain it clearly even if I talk about it for three days and three nights. If your Majesty wants to see it, you can try it with a small amount of stalactite.”
When Li Shimin saw Chang Sun Wuji teasing him, he didn’t care, so he sent someone with a knife to scrape some powder off the stalactite.
After entering these powders, Li Shimin suddenly felt that his whole body became very light, as if he was about to rise into the air.
When he was in a state of confusion, he suddenly woke up and found that he had escaped from his body and was in the sky above the imperial study room.
“True immortal! Am I a true immortal now?” Li Shimin was overjoyed.
Although he is honored as the King of Ten Thousand Vehicles and the King of the Tang Dynasty, to the immortals, this status is actually nothing.
He teaches all peoples to be respectful, but he is just a mortal.
Although his status is noble, he cannot compare with the immortals.
Now, with a single move of his hand, he can point at the clouds and capture the sky, traveling freely.
Suddenly, a burst of sounds came from below, and it was the guard beside him who said: “Do you think that is His Majesty? Your Majesty actually flew up!”
“It’s really your Majesty!”
At this time, Li Shimin discovered that others could see him. As soon as he thought about it, the whole person disappeared in the air without a trace.
When his heart is at ease, when he is traveling around the world in Journey to the West…
Heaven, Tushita Palace.
Taishang Laojun is sitting together with Lingbao Tianzun, observing the cause and effect in the lower world.
Lingbao Tianzun watched Li Shimin leave the four major continents and fly towards the ten continents where the immortals live. He couldn’t help laughing and said: “You disturb the order of the heaven so much. Aren’t you afraid of the punishment of heaven and earth? God will be angry?”
Taishang Laojun skillfully filled a pot of golden elixir and said with a smile: “My move is to allow the world of Journey to the West to intersect with other worlds.”
“If the master of the earth has an idea, then this world does not need to be semi-closed. Wouldn’t it be wonderful for us to travel around the worlds?”
Xu Xuanzhi doesn’t have much control over the world of Journey to the West, as long as it can develop for the better.
No matter whether the world of Journey to the West merges with other worlds or becomes a transit point for the heavens of Journey to the West, as long as it does not affect him or disturb his purity, that’s fine.
Therefore, Laojun’s plan is reasonable and within the scope of his permission.
Since Xu Xuanzhi acquiesces, there is no longer any obstacle between heaven and earth. Li Shimin was able to come into contact with the fairy islands in the world of Journey to the West, and meet the immortals who had been immortals for a long time and drank freely and talked about Taoism.
When the immortals saw Li Shimin, they all showed surprise and said, “Li Shimin, Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? As a human emperor, how can you come to my ancestral continent?”
Several other immortals also stood up. Wearing green and white robes, they turned around and looked at Li Shimin.
“Well, he is now in the body of a true immortal. But as far as I know, he has never cultivated Taoism, and secondly, he has not obtained the immortal fruit. How could it be like this?”
A group of immortals looked at him back and forth. The immortals they saw in this ancestral land had no respect for him, as if they had seen an ordinary mortal on the roadside.
In order to stop them from surrounding him, Li Shimin had no choice but to say: “Fellow immortals, I got the rare treasure of immortal stalactite presented by the envoy of Xiangfeng Kingdom, so that I could temporarily transform into an immortal and come here to look for traces of the immortal. ”
After getting rid of their confusion, all the immortals nodded, showing their original expressions.
“So there is such a rare treasure between heaven and earth? It seems that I still have to travel more.” The immortal smiled, and then looked at Li Shimin again.
“The effect of your strange treasure has expired. If you don’t go back now, when will you wait?”
After saying that, he stretched out a finger and pushed Li Shimin back.
After being pushed by the immortal, Li Shimin suddenly felt his feet falling. When he was frightened in his heart, he closed his eyes and found that he had returned to the imperial study room of Chang’an Palace without knowing when.
