Chapter 232: heaven mending stone, Nuwa Palace

"Fellow Daoist?"

The White-Robed Buddha's voice drifted into Han Jue's ears once more. Having waited for a long time without receiving a response from Han Jue, he felt somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that he hadn't done well enough?

Han Jue thought about it for a moment, then flashed in front of the White-Robed Buddha.

Seeing him appear, the White-Robed Buddha couldn't help but smile and asked, "Many Prodigies have emerged in the Crimson Cloud Realm recently. Even if they were placed in the Immortal Realm, they wouldn't be considered mediocre."

Han Jue asked in confusion, "Why are you putting in so much effort? Won't you return to the Buddhist Sect? Aren't you afraid of being held accountable?"

The White-Robed Buddha frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist, could it be that you don't know the truth? The Heavenly Emperor ordered me to assist you; are you unaware of this?"

"I am asking if you aren't afraid of the Buddhist Sect's wrath?"

"It's fine. The matter of searching for the World Honored Buddha Ancestor is inherently difficult; it's hard to succeed without several hundred years. I can delay for a while longer. The Buddha Ancestor cannot calculate my location; I possess a supreme treasure."

"Then aren't you afraid of being suspected?"

"He already suspects me, so what is there to fear? He sent me here precisely to test me."

Han Jue looked at the White-Robed Buddha's confident expression and was speechless.

This was too reckless!

If he were the Heavenly Dao Buddha Ancestor, he would definitely kill the White-Robed Buddha.

He would have to be careful in the future.

To avoid having a double agent like the White-Robed Buddha in his own sect.

Han Jue thought silently, then said, "You can handle the matter of the Prodigies."

With the heavenly dao token, he wasn't afraid of the White-Robed Buddha playing tricks.

Under the Heavenly Dao, he could monitor the White-Robed Buddha at any time, even if the White-Robed Buddha possessed a supreme treasure.

If the White-Robed Buddha acted recklessly, he could kill him instantly.

"I'm helping you so much, shouldn't you thank me?" The White-Robed Buddha chuckled playfully.

Han Jue said irritably, "That sounds as if you haven't gained anything. Allowing you to preach in the Mortal Realm to increase your Luck is already the greatest favor to you."

The White-Robed Buddha was speechless because what Han Jue said was reasonable.

"That's all."

Han Jue dropped this sentence and vanished from where he stood.

The White-Robed Buddha shook his head and laughed, then turned and left.

Han Jue didn't return directly to the Innate Cave Mansion; instead, he went under the fusang tree to preach to the Disciples of the Hidden Sect.

So many years had passed, and the weakest of these Disciples already had cultivation in the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

The Spiritual Qi of the Mountain of Bitter Cultivation to Immortality remained the densest in the entire world.

Zhou Mingyue, who was in the Tribulation Crossing Realm, had also made a name for himself. Following Murong Qi, he became the new head Disciple of the Yuqing Sacred Sect. True Person Jiuding felt embarrassed to try and recruit Han Jue, so he could only target his Grand-disciple.

It is worth mentioning that True Person Jiuding's cultivation had reached the second level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, so he would not face the suffering of his lifespan limit.

Half a year later.

Han Jue finished his lecture.

Long Hao spoke up, "Master, I want to learn the Heaven-Reaching Sword Dao!"

Ever since Enlightenment Sword had mastered the second level of the Heaven-Reaching Sword Dao, her strength had greatly increased, and that magnificent swordsmanship made Long Hao envious.

The Black Hell Chicken followed up, "I want to learn it too!"

Han Jue said, "This sword dao is very difficult to learn. Emperor Taibai, the head of the Literary Immortals in the Heavenly Court, took a thousand years to Master it, which is already a sign of excellent Aptitude."

"My Aptitude is not bad."

Long Hao said earnestly, while the Black Hell Chicken remained silent.

Han Jue thought about it and said, "Who else wants to learn? I will teach you all together."

Xun Changan, Zhou Mingyue, and the Golden Crow A-Da all raised their hands.

Chu Shiren was not interested, Tu Linger was not skilled in sword dao, and the Golden Crow Xiao Er had limited Aptitude for sword dao.

Han Jue smiled and then began to teach the first level of the Heaven-Reaching Sword Dao.

Several days later, Han Jue arrived in front of the earth immortal gourd vine.

The seven gourds had already grown to the size of ordinary gourds in the Mortal Realm. Han Jue took out a small green jade bottle containing ancestral witch essence blood and injected it into the earth immortal gourd vine.

The Golden Crow Xiao Er asked curiously, "Master, what are you doing?"

Han Jue smiled and said, "Adding some fertilizer to it."

The others were still contemplating the sword dao and did not gather around.

Tu Linger suddenly sensed something and opened her eyes to look at the small green jade bottle in Han Jue's hand.

For some reason, she felt an inexplicable palpitation, and her heartbeat accelerated.

What was that?

Han Jue stared at the earth immortal gourd vine, praying silently, hoping that the Fusion would be successful.

This way, he would be able to create seven ancestral witch gourd babies.

Under his gaze, the earth immortal gourd vine showed no abnormalities.

It was good that there were no abnormalities; he was just afraid that the earth immortal gourd vine would disappear entirely.

Just as Han Jue was thinking this, he suddenly sensed something. He raised his right hand, and a red stone appeared in his hand.

This was a mysterious stone that Xing Hongxuan had given him a long time ago. It was said to have fallen from the sky, and inside it was a strange mass of Qi. To this day, Han Jue still could not see what this mass of Qi was.

The red stone trembled violently, wanting to break free from Han Jue's hand.

Han Jue hesitated for a moment but chose to let go.

The red stone flew rapidly toward the earth immortal gourd vine and collided with the vines, then condensed into a red gourd at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Compared to the other Earth Immortal gourds, the red gourd appeared very small, but it was bright red like blood and extremely conspicuous.

"The stone turned into a gourd!"

Xiao Er exclaimed, drawing the attention of the others.

Han Jue ignored her and focused on staring at the earth immortal gourd vine.

After a while, the earth immortal gourd vine still showed no abnormalities.

Tsk tsk.

Seven gourd babies turned into eight gourd babies?

Han Jue found it strange. He turned his head to look at the Disciples and said, "Usually, pay more attention to these gourds. If there are any abnormal situations, notify me immediately."

After saying this, he returned to the Innate Cave Mansion to continue Cultivating.

The Disciples went to the earth immortal gourd vine to watch.

"There really is an extra gourd."

"Will these gourds take human form?"

"They should be, otherwise Master would have refined them into Magic Treasures long ago."

"Master has a kind heart. Enlightenment Sword was transformed from grass, and the ugly monk was also a primordial spirit ginseng in his previous life."

"It will be lively again in the future."

…

Twenty years later.

While Han Jue was Cultivating, a line of text suddenly appeared before his eyes:

[Detected an Innate Destiny Bearer. Do you want to view their origin?]

Han Jue frowned, praying that it wouldn't be an enemy, and then chose to view it.

[Earth Immortal Gourd Spirit: First level of Body Integration Realm. Transformed from the earth immortal gourd vine, containing the essence blood of the ancient legendary ancestral witch Dijiang. After a thousand years of gestation by the fusang tree, it has gained consciousness and possesses extraordinary Luck.] x7

[Chaos Gourd Spirit: First level of Spirit Transformation Realm. Transformed from a heaven mending stone, combined with the essence of the earth immortal gourd vine and the ancestral witch Dijiang's essence blood. Its foundation is powerful, forming an unprecedented race of living beings. It is said that the heaven mending stone is a Chaos Spirit Stone found by a Saint from the depths of the Chaos. This heaven mending stone fell from the Nuwa Palace. In the dark, it was manipulated by a mysterious power to approach the target. However, the heaven mending stone has already gained consciousness, and the gathering of great Luck—such as ancestral witch Luck, Reincarnation Luck, and fusang tree Luck—has severed the Karma with the Nuwa Palace.]

Han Jue was stunned as he read this.

All eight gourds had gained consciousness?

Han Jue's brow furrowed. That red stone was actually a heaven mending stone, and it came from the Nuwa Palace?

Had the Nuwa Palace set its sights on him?

They intentionally threw the heaven mending stone to Xing Hongxuan, and since Xing Hongxuan couldn't utilize the heaven mending stone, she could only pass it on to Han Jue.

Passing through Xing Hongxuan's hands, Han Jue naturally wouldn't suspect that the heaven mending stone came from a conspiracy.

Hiss—

That's something!

Han Jue was startled.

[Tai Su Tian has developed favorability toward you. Current favorability is 1 star.]
