He quickly returned home.
Lu Xun first found a jade bottle and placed the Taiqing Divine Pill inside.
Then, he cautiously took out a black incense stick from his storage magic treasure.
He lit the incense with a look of reverence.
Then he inserted it into the censer.
Wisps of smoke diffused from the incense stick.
Immediately after.
A figure in a black robe with dark skin appeared out of thin air before Lu Xun and Lu Yuan.
This person's eyes were indifferent, devoid of any emotion.
It was Hei Wuchang, one of Yama's right-hand men.
Hei Wuchang: "You summoned me, for what purpose?"
Lu Xun knelt there reverently, his hands raised above his head: "This humble subject was ordered by Lord Yama to refine the Taiqing Divine Pill. Now that the pill is complete, please, Lord Hei Wuchang, hand it over to Lord Yama!"
Hei Wuchang waved his right hand, and the jade bottle flew to him.
He opened it, took a look, and then put it away: "I will deliver this pill to Lord Yama. If this pill can truly heal Lord Yama's injuries, your Lu family will naturally not be mistreated."
Lu Xun quickly replied: "It is our Lu family's honor to refine pills for Lord Yama."
"We never intended to ask for any reward."
Hei Wuchang curved his lips upwards: "Very well, if Lord Yama has any rewards, I shall accept them on your behalf!"
Hearing this.
Lu Xun's expression immediately changed.
I...
I was just being polite.
Can't you tell the difference between politeness and sincerity?
Hei Wuchang snorted coldly: "I detest hypocrites the most. If there is a next time, do not blame me for not showing respect to the Imperial Tutor." Saying this, his figure turned transparent and disappeared from the Lu family.
After Hei Wuchang left.
Lu Xun breathed a sigh of relief as if a great burden had been lifted, then grinned: "Once Lord Yama recovers from his injuries, our Lu family will achieve immense fortune."
"Ancestor, what about Chen Nan?" Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask. "He killed many of our Lu family's consecrated experts. We can't just let him get away with it, can we?"
Lu Xun wore a sinister smile: "Get away with it?"
"Heh!"
"How is that possible!"
"Don't rush!"
"Let him live for two more days."
"When Lord Yama recovers from his injuries, he will surely send someone to reward us!"
"At that time, wouldn't it be delightful to have someone sent by Lord Yama help us kill Chen Nan?"
"To use the pill he refined to achieve a great merit, and then use that to kill him."
"Don't you think that's quite interesting?"
Lu Yuan's eyes lit up: "Could this be what is called 'killing the heart by destroying the spirit'?"
"If that's the case, Chen Nan must be in despair, right?"
He was filled with anticipation.
He really wanted to see the helpless and despairing look on Chen Nan's face when he was killed.
------
Meanwhile.
Chen Nan ultimately couldn't resist the enthusiasm of Lu Bailing and Lu Qingqing.
He was lost in the river of love.
Surpassing his idol Xu Xian.
This was his first time playing as a demon, and he had a different experience.
In principle, when a demon cultivates into a human.
They are considered human.
After all, they possess the physical structure of humans.
They have everything humans have.
This was also why Xu Xian could get together with Bai Suzhen.
Because at first, Xu Xian had no idea of Bai Suzhen's identity.
And the biggest difference...
Was that snakes were cold-blooded animals...
Cold.
Do you understand cold?
This was fundamentally different from humans.
The feeling was like being lost in a cool paradise during the hot summer.
It was inexplicably comfortable.
Of course.
There was also some regret for Chen Nan.
If there were a human beside him.
Then he could experience both the cold and hot sensations, two distinctly different feelings.
Looking at the beautiful women beside him with flushed faces, holding each other as they drifted into dreamland.
Chen Nan suddenly felt a moment of clarity.
A sense of inner peace.
He sat cross-legged and entered cultivation.
His soul power rapidly increased.
Even his cultivation level seemed to have rocketed.
He soon broke through the Soul Devouring Realm and entered the Body Seizing Realm.
Then from the Body Seizing Realm to the Earth Ghost Realm.
The speed of his breakthroughs was beyond Chen Nan's expectations.
He hadn't taken any medicinal pills.
It was merely a transformation in his state of mind.
Who would have thought his cultivation would soar like this.
And it was heading towards the Sky Ghost Realm.
With no signs of stopping.
------
The sudden improvement.
Caused a strong sense of unease in his heart.
After all, this was too abnormal.
"Brother Dog, what's happening to me?" Chen Nan communicated with Di Ting.
Di Ting asked in return: "Why did you achieve enlightenment?"
Chen Nan: "The Lu sisters?"
Di Ting: "What are they in your eyes?"
"All living beings."
If he hadn't "conquered" the Lu sisters before.
He would have pondered this question for a moment.
And then given the answer of "demon."
But now.
Humans and demons were indistinguishable in his heart.
Di Ting: "All living beings are equal."
"Although everyone says this."
"How many can truly comprehend the meaning of these four words?"
"Congratulations."
"Your perspective has been broadened!"
"This is the fortunate opportunity you gained from your enlightenment."
"If nothing unexpected happens, you will directly step into the peak of the Ghost King Realm."
Chen Nan gasped.
This was too sudden for him.
It was like a pie falling from the sky.
And hitting him so hard that he was dazed.
He had always dreamed of becoming a Ghost King Realm expert.
Because to enter the eighteen layers of hell and see Empress Houtu.
One not only had to become a Level Nine Underworld Emissary.
But also a peak Ghost King Realm expert.
Both conditions were indispensable.
And now.
Everything he had done was just to become a Level Nine Underworld Emissary.
Who would have thought that before becoming a Level Nine Underworld Emissary.
He would accidentally be on the verge of becoming a peak Ghost King Realm expert.
Di Ting said earnestly: "Now, you are truly shouldering the responsibility of rebuilding the Heavenly Court."
"Because you now understand that all things in the world are living beings."
"You should be grateful that you are in the underworld."
"If you were in the mortal realm."
"You would break through the void and ascend to the God Realm."
"In simple terms, you have already become a god!"
Chen Nan's heart trembled.
Ascend to the God Realm?
Although he knew he would eventually enter the God Realm.
At this moment.
Entering the God Realm felt too soon.
To put it bluntly.
He wasn't fully prepared.
Di Ting continued: "Don't worry about ascending."
"Even if you return to the mortal realm, you must first find those reincarnated celestial gods."
"You are the player in rebuilding the Heavenly Court, and they are the pieces."
"You are mutually beneficial."
"Neither can be lacking."
Chen Nan grunted, then asked: "What was the identity of the man in black who appeared tonight?"
Di Ting asked: "Did you go to the Great Zhaosi Temple?"
Chen Nan: "Are you saying those people are from Buddhism?"
Di Ting: "You are a thorn in their side!"
A murderous intent arose in Chen Nan's heart.
His previous understanding of Buddhism was all hearsay.
Even the story of Sun Wukong being killed by Tathagata was just something he had heard.
But now.
He found the methods of Buddhism despicable.
Just because he saw the great demons suppressed beneath the statue of Acalanatha.
Buddhism wanted to hunt him down to the death?
If you cannot tolerate me.
Can I tolerate you?
If you bully me like this.
Shouldn't I destroy you?
