Chapter 850 - 240: Yellow Springs Underworld Fading Away, Academy Born from Ten Thousand Sects in Central Capital

Chapter 850: Chapter 240: Yellow Springs Underworld Fading Away, Academy Born from Ten Thousand Sects in Central Capital

The world is barren, the Meat Fields gradually desolate, only the Meat Fields around the Central Capital are prosperous, numerous beyond count.

All power and influence begin to converge into the hands of the Human Emperor.

The world has unified in an unprecedented manner.

Unified under one person.

...

Elsewhere, Li Yuan finally gave up on seeking the road to the Underworld, and returned to Shanbao County.

The Meat Fields of Shanbao County also began to quickly degenerate, and Third Grade Meat Fields no longer exist.

Given such circumstances, whether the Human Emperor conquers the Southern Land is actually not so important anymore.

He decided to first go to the old residence.

Xie Yu, dressed in a Red Robe, was still cultivating under the apricot tree.

In the courtyard, Xiaozhen clutched a Wooden Sword, practicing.

But while practicing, she stumbled, shouted "Ouch," and was about to fall.

Yet a gentle Domain Power held her up.

Xiaozhen looked up, blankly stared at the newcomer, seemed to recognize him after a while, then timidly ran to the side of the Red Robe beautiful woman under the tree, and called out: "Mother, father, father."

Xie Yu opened her eyes, glanced at Li Yuan.

She saw exhaustion, she saw the weariness of travel.

She looked again towards Xiaozhen, saying: "Your father has returned, go play with him then."

"Okay!"

The little girl ran towards Li Yuan.

Li Yuan squatted down, reached out to pick her up, and then spun her around.

The little girl laughed joyfully.

But in Li Yuan’s sight, the numbers above the little girl’s head were still "0~1."

Logically, in such a favorable place for cultivation, with teachings from Xie Wei and Xie Yu, progress ought to have been made.

He silently shook his head, then played with Xiaozhen for a while, went indoors, and took out paper and pen to start writing.

In recent days, as he walked alone in the Underworld, many of his original ideas concerning Fourth Grade Skills began to take shape, it was time to compile them into a book and pass them on to Wendao Palace.

"The greatest of heroes, for the nation and the people, for the revitalization of a lineage..."

"Demons, absolutes, upon entering Fifth Grade, should establish three Talisman Seeds; they can thus be transformed into heroes..."

"To enter higher Realms, one must require right mindfulness, as pure as flawless white jade, akin to a lotus growing in mud..."

Three paths converge into one; this is the Fourth Grade path he paved, although not yet tested, he simulated it many times in his mind, believing there is considerable feasibility.

After writing, he pondered slightly and titled it [Jade Planting Technique].

The meaning is to plant right mindfulness in one’s heart, just like planting a piece of flawless white jade.

Subsequently, he began to compile the Fourth Grade Saber Skill.

Based on Domain Power, Concealing Power, Vortex Power, constructing the Saber Skill.

This Saber Skill is a weakened version of [Great Moon Blade], so upon completing the writing, he simply named it [Little Moon Blade].

After writing two Skills, Li Yuan repeatedly checked, revised, then handed them to Xie Wei, saying, "Take Wendao Palace and Judge to the Central Capital, let Xiaoyu’Er go with you.

In the Central Capital, you can enjoy the best resources."

Xie Wei took the Skills with surprise, after a brief look, realized what they were.

Her enchanting eyes fixated on the man in front of her, unable to speak.

This is a demon capable of creating Skills.

Compared to the Human Emperor’s fortune, this man is truly astonishingly talented.

She didn’t play petty games.

Going to the Central Capital now benefits everyone in the Southern Land.

Though everyone is still here, once the Meat Fields completely fall into Fifth Grade, there will be large-scale "defections," if the Meat Fields fall to Sixth Grade, probably no one will remain here.

Handing over such a large force and such complete inheritance to the Human Emperor, this is "rightful";

She is the Human Emperor’s birth mother, Xie Yu is the Human Emperor’s concubine, this is "legitimate."

With legitimacy and rightfulness, they will naturally receive immense benefits.

Before, she feigned death to leave the Imperial Capital because it was filled with deceit and trickery, but now... all such trickery dissipates before the Human Emperor.

This time heading north, the Xie Family will truly leap to become the world’s premier Noble Family, even the Human Emperor will generously take a large piece from the High Grade Forbidden Field and give it to the Xie Family.

"Come with us." Xie Wei’s thoughts returned, her eyes gently looked at Li Yuan, "Xiaozhen needs you, and the Human Emperor probably wants to drink and chat with you."

Li Yuan gently shook his head.

Firstly, he will not appear high-profile beside the Human Emperor, particularly as there are uncertainties surrounding the Human Emperor.

Secondly, he still needs to find a way to meet Lady Yan.

Additionally, after his return, Xiaozhao brought him news: after the Barbarian King and Human Emperor fought, spending two and a half years healing, yet not recovering, now instead appearing as if nearing the end.

The Barbarian King wants to approach Withered Fire, to be buried in fire like his father, but was stopped.

Li Yuan decided to visit the Western Pole once.

Now the Western Pole to him is no longer a perilous lair.

He has grown stronger, the Western Pole army shattered by the Human Emperor, and the source of Ice Barbarians migrated.

Thus, he can go safely.

With this thought, Li Yuan raised his hand upwards, two Illusionary Sparrows landed on his hand, he watched the sparrows, lost in thought: "Take them to the Imperial Capital, perhaps I will visit the Xie Family for a cup of tea, just don’t block me at the door when I come."

"Li Yuan..."

Xie Wei suddenly embraced the man in front of her tightly, her eyes red, "Lady Yama has already become a major force, I and Xiaoyu’Er are also your women."

Li Yuan said nothing, only gently stroked the beautiful woman’s back, softly saying, "I know."

...

...

Dong!

Dong!

Dong!!

The heavy echo sways over the thick, murky water.

Yama in the Ten Thousand Ghosts’ Green Skirt stands before the dark steps of the Ghost Hall, gazing into the distance.

She remembers she has family in the distance.

She remembers the names of family members, remembers their appearances.

"Li Yuan..."

"Li Rui..."

She recites her family names, forcing herself to remember, must never forget.

Dong!

Dong!!

The dull echo grows louder, as if this eerie Ghost Realm is being struck like a drum made from human skin.

A lavish large coffin floats over from Yellow Springs, stopping beside the Ghost Hall.

Squeak... squeak squeak...

The coffin lid slowly opens a crack.

In the darkness, a slender hand like white jade reaches out, grasping abruptly appears before Yama.

Five fingers like a prison, reach for Yama.

Pa!

In the next moment, the five fingers grasped, but didn’t catch Yama, instead a white-robed female ghost carrying a huge iron cage.

...

Postscript: Earlier, a reader mentioned no outline existed.

Peach Blossom Pastry still needs clarification that there is indeed an outline.

Various plots, power, and characters interwoven into an outline.

However, newcomers aren’t that skilled yet, easily missing details, lacking necessary elements, still completing as they write.

Another reader asked what the author wants to express with this book?

Answer: This is about an Immortal’s life in an Otherworld.
