He did not esteem nor regret because of this. He understood but he did not agree with Guan Longzi. After all, this was his own choice.

Regarding their states, Guan Longzi was definitely above Daoism land immortals. To reach Tian Xianjing, it was not impossible to be done if he wanted to live for another few thousand years. As a matter of fact, it was already very difficult to encounter natural death as his cultivation level already reached the level of a land immortal. This had nothing to do with the strength of power but their abilities to surmount the restraint of mundanity. Even the Book of Life and Death could only use certain special means to induce the deaths of land immortals.

Because Shen Lian had yet to interact with the land immortals of Netherworld, he could only roughly understand from Guan Longzi. He guessed that it could be relevant to the land immortals’ three biggest Trials of Dao.

Qing Xuan daoist sect’s Earth and Star Great Way rules and the Netherworld had significant differences. Although the trial of Dao was challenging, it would never be as terrifying as the Netherworld. According to Guan Longzi, since the foundation of Da Xia, the amount of cultivators who could actually reach Tian Xianjing and Buddha Jing from Di Xianjing was never more than fifty. There was not even one land immortal who could live since foundation of Da Xia to present. The difficulty to reach Tian Xianjing from the Netherworld was clear to see.

Back in the past, for those that had attained Tian Xianjing, some might already have found the way out of the Netherworld and moved to another world. There might also be some who had always been hiding in the Netherworld and had not been through reborn. Just like there was a rumour about a senior monk by the blood-red sea who had already achieved The K?itigarbha Techniques which was ranked highest in the world. His great mind had proved the state of Mahasattva which was comparable to Taiyi from Daoism.

There had always been the saying that it was easy to attain Dao but difficult to preserve Dao. However, when it had reached the stage of Mahasattva and Taiyi, then there would be no reversal of state of Dao but only defending your own Dao and it was ranked the highest among the world’s sentient beings.

There was a rumour about this senior monk who would always use his big mana to convert the resentful spirits in blood-red sea. However, due to the fact that the resentment in the world would flow in the direction to the blood-red sea, hence even with K?itigarbha Bodhisattva’s boundless mana, it still could not clear up the blood-red sea. Therefore, the effort that the senior monk had put in actually went down the drain.

Shen Lian knew the story about this senior monk and he was determined to go to the blood-red Asura sea in the future. The thought of having to witness a living Mahasattva had aroused him.

All these thoughts happened like the lightning, they did not leave any track in his heart. When Shen Lian made his move, all the changes in the chess game were instantly being held back.

Shen Lian said, “my friend, you’ve lost.”

Guan Longzi swept the chessboard and everything instantly scattered. This sweep was like a flying celestial, there was no sign of it and it actually concealed from Shen Lian’s premonition. Although Guan Longzi’s speed was not fast and Shen Lian could stop it from happening, he did not do so. One with sincerity had the ability to predict, and Guan Longzi’s premonition was before him.

On the other hand, Lei Jing who had been in silence for a long time had already gotten up one moment ago. She had completely witnessed everything that happened between Shen Lian and Guan Longzi. Her haggard looks could not conceal her satisfaction deep in her eyes. She walked slowly to them and said, “Mr. Guan Longzi, I can remember clearly about the chess game. Remember your promise since you’ve lost.”

Guan Longzi spoke while smiling, “you teacher and disciple team up to bully me. Goodbye.”

He stood up and left, as simply as the flowing water.

Shen Lian silently looked at this disciple while sizing her up. Compared to before, the expression in her eyes had become so much deeper that even Qi cultivators who had profound cultivation experience would feel embarrassed meeting her.

Shen Lian had even seen an unmeasurable vital force which originated from her bloodline. It was filled with ancientness, maturity, stalwartness and vastness.

Lei Jing stood quietly in front of Shen Lian. It instinctively felt like there was a high morality master manner which originated from the inheritance of bloodline. Naturally, it had caused earthshaking changes in her qualities.

She was no longer the soft girl but the Lei Jing who was the descendant with both Youhu and Xiahou’s bloodline.

Shen Lian sighed and said, “although I can predict a lot of things, I’ve underestimated your Xia Clan bloodline’s extraordinary gift. The things that Qi cultivators can only understand after spending up to hundred of years on it, you can actually get it within such a short period of time.”

Lei Jing stared at this man right in front of her, her admiration for this man never faded at all although she was already different from before.

She had finally come to her realisation. It was not the realisation of her bloodline’s power, but the realisation deep within her soul that had brought her enormous spiritual force and the Great Way rules.

If it was not due to Shen Lian’s guidance, she could not open up the inheritance deep within her bloodline.

On one hand, the bloodline provided the Xia Clan with energy but on the other hand, it was a shackle. The way to unlock this shackle was the awakening of spirit. Shen Lian had taught her how to breathe and how to carve, these two were the most important steps in Daoism for the cultivation of Qi and spiritual enhancement. When there was Qi, your blood would be clear, and when your heart died, your spirit would be alive. Being in the state of dead loneliness had gained her something that could benefit her forever.

Lei Jing said, “this is all because of you, teacher.”

Shen Lian asked softly, “do you want to sleep?”

Lei Jing blinked and her beautiful eyes seemed to be filled with glow, she said, “no, I’ve never felt so lively and vigorous like today in my entire life.”

Shen Lian smiled while saying, “then you can start carving.”

“Okay.”

Lei Jing had taken out three wooden knives from the shelf at the side. First, she had chosen the weakest knife. She starting carving from the bottom to the top. The weapons made from the tough Kun Wu stone was very durable, it could easily cut anything but once it touched the edge of a wooden knife, it would be very vulnerable.

There were wooden chips continuously falling off and in the end, a pair of legs was formed.

It seemed as though there was already a perfect and energetic pair of legs being hidden in this Kun Wu stone and all Lei Jing did was removing the outer wrapping layer using the wooden knife.

When Lei Jing had finished carving the lower body, the wooden knife also broke into two halves.

Half of the sculpture’s body figure was filled with a strange magical power, as though a demonic god was showing half of his body which was already enough to send chill down people’s spines.

The wooden knife broke into two halves but Lei Jing did not bat her eye on it. Though the wooden knife was broken, its possessive demonic characteristics were already being injected into the pair of legs.

Lei Jing took out the second wooden knife and started carving the upper body. This time, her speed was slower than before. However, Lei Jing was still leisurely doing it. The wooden chips were continuously falling and in the end a magnificent body figure was produced. Although there was no head on the sculpture, there was a majestic grandeur which felt as though the mortals were instantly being thrown down the edge of a cliff and when they looked up, their minds and spirits were being taken away.

The second wooden knife also broke into two halves. Then, Lei Jing continued by using the third wooden knife. Her sweat was dripping continuously and she did not have enough time to wipe it off.

At this moment, she was so absorbed into carving her uncle’s appearance.

Her speed of utilising the knife was not accompanied with any shadow. Every strength she used was right on the spot. There should not be more or less strength.

The entire look of Emperor Xia was produced. Then, Lei Jing kept the wooden knife which did not break into two halves in the end.

The sculpture of Emperor Xia was still lack of a pair of eyes. Lei Jing looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction. If there was a pair of eyes, the sculpture would look alive.

However, she finally understood why her teacher did not allow her to carve the eyes because no matter how she did it, it would make this sculpture no longer perfect and her past effort would go down the drain.
