Chapter 465 To the Other Shore
Yuenu looked at Li Lan and made up her mind.
She knew she was gambling with herself, and if she lost, she would die.
However, after spending so many years in the Star Devouring Sect, she had come to a profound understanding that the Star Devouring Sect was by no means a benevolent place, but a true man-eating demonic den. In fact, there was not a single pure land under the entire Great Dark Heaven.
Even if there's only a sliver of hope of leaving... it's worth a shot.
Upon hearing this, Li Lan nodded without much hesitation and said, "I promise you."
Yue Nu breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "This world is more complicated than Gu Tingyi imagined. In order to gather all the life energy in the world for alchemy, in addition to a few of us disciples of the Star Devouring Sect, he is now selecting some native creatures from the Other Shore as servants."
"If you can infiltrate it, you might have the opportunity to leave the other world in the future."
She gave a message.
Li Lan pondered for a moment, then nodded.
He hasn't had any contact with the Star Devouring Sect or Gu Tingyi yet, so getting close enough to investigate is a good thing.
"There's another question,"
At this moment, Li Lan spoke up, asking, "How did you know I was in the Eternal True Realm?"
When he parted ways with the Jin Yunshan followers, only a few people knew where he had gone.
Gu Tingyi couldn't possibly have found him with such precision.
Does this mean there are spies in the Jin Yun Mountain secret realm?
"The message came from Moko Cave."
Yue Nu did not hide anything and said, "A powerful figure from Mo Ke Cave has been chosen as one of my servants."
Li Lan suddenly realized.
No wonder.
He had thought that Moke Cave and the Sword Burial Pool were among the few pure lands, but now it seemed that these forces were just as unreliable.
Gu Dengji led his people to seek refuge in Moke Cave, but in reality, they were like lambs to the slaughter, falling into Gu Tingyi's trap instead.
However, Li Lan is too late to save them now.
"Tomorrow, I will set off with you to the other side."
Li Lan got up and left.
Time was of the essence, and he still had some things to do before leaving.
He quickly returned to Earth and met his parents, Xia Qingzhu, and other relatives. However, this time he did not appear in person, but secretly left behind a protective method.
Although he cannot grant his loved ones eternity, he can at least guarantee them peace and well-being for the rest of their lives, free from any harm.
In addition, he also went to places like the Void Heaven Divine Court again and found Jin Duoduo.
She is the reincarnation of Jin Muyun from the underworld. Jin Muyun was a princess of the Golden-Winged Roc clan in the underworld and was once Li Lan's wife. He also left behind opportunities and protection for her.
There is also Hua Tianqingyi from the Eternal True Realm. Like Jin Duoduo, she is the reincarnation of Bai Ruoling, the little tiger from the underworld. In this life, she also went through many things with Li Lan, and Li Lan left her many things.
To Li Lan's regret, he did not find Lin Ruobing's reincarnation.
Perhaps the time is not right yet.
He instructed Zhu Wusi to wait for and search for Lin Ruobing. If she appeared, even if Li Lan was not there, Zhu Wusi would become her protector and help her grow and cultivate.
After doing all this, Li Lan returned to the Eternal True Realm. Everything in the world that he could see was reflected in his mind.
Now, the turmoil has subsided, and under the impetus of the Void Heaven Divine Court, the world is returning to order. All living beings are able to cultivate, various methods are being spread, and the prelude to the Golden Age has slowly begun.
Li Lan can rest assured now.
"I'm sorry to trouble you two with this world."
Li Lan took one last look at the Eternal True Realm, and said something to the cat and the big black dog.
"Woof, kid, break through to the inner world as soon as possible, and one day, I will come looking for you again!"
The big black dog said, "What great black heaven? When the time comes, I will definitely let it taste my heaven-reaching and earth-shattering divine power."
The cat then raised its little paw and patted Li Lan's shoulder, saying, "Go for it, meow."
Li Lan nodded, then left with Yue Nu. He was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared.
……
"The other side is probably even more dangerous... It's really too difficult for the beings in the inner world to break out without the guidance of the creator god."
The big black dog couldn't help but shake its head.
He and the cat already knew the truth about this world.
The cat merely glanced in the direction Li Lan had left and said, "He can do it."
Then, she turned and left with her tail raised.
……
Simultaneously.
Within the Void Heaven Divine Court.
On this day, the ancestral god Miao Wuyu stood on the high platform, looked up at the sky, and sighed softly.
Has the Heavenly Emperor left?
Bai Zhou and the others asked in hushed tones.
"The turmoil on the other side has not yet subsided, how can he stop?"
Miao Wuyu shook his head and said, "His life is destined to be one of battle."
"Unfortunately, we are too weak!"
The Blood Lotus Fairy and the others couldn't help but sigh.
Even though he wanted to follow Li Lan and fight alongside him, he was now powerless to do so.
They spent their entire lives without ever seeing Li Lan's back again, let alone catching up with him.
"Then protect this mortal world for him."
Miao Wuyu remained calm. She turned around and said, "Come, follow me to spread the Dharma."
……
"My master has left; I must go into seclusion."
On the other side, Xingluoyuan's eyes were filled with resentment.
He didn't want to stop there; he wanted to keep striving and keep moving forward.
Now, Li Lan's magic has spread throughout the world. He believes that as long as he works hard enough, one day he will be able to participate in the next great battle again, even if he is just a small soldier.
The Five Elements Goddess sighed softly and set off for the Primordial World.
The Eternal Realm has undergone earth-shattering changes, but the Primordial World has not yet been reformed, and the seven races still need further integration.
……
"This is……"
In a certain residence of the Void Heaven Divine Court, Jin Duoduo discovered the Dao Seed, Dharma, and inheritance left behind by Li Lan, and she was suddenly enlightened.
“Li Lan…”
At that moment, she suddenly understood something, as if her innate wisdom had awakened. In a daze, she recalled some fragments of her past life. She rushed out the door, but Li Lan was no longer there. She was just bewildered.
……
"Li Lan, I don't want these things, come back to me..."
On the other side, in a beautiful, spiritually rich valley, Hua Tianqingyi stumbled out, her face covered in tears, saying, "You promised to come find us, but you just left like that, you liar, you liar!"
She had also recalled the scene of their parting in her previous life. At that time, she, Jin Muyun, and Lin Ruobing were worried that they might forget Li Lan after reincarnation.
Li Lan had promised that he would come to find them.
Unfortunately, when Li Lan was by their side, they only felt familiar and close to him, but they didn't remember anything from their past lives...
"I'll be waiting for you here... You must come back, come back safely!"
After a long time, she stood on the mountain peak, the mountain wind drying her tears.
……
Following the method provided by Yue Nu, Li Lan quickly entered the Other Shore World.
However, this time he did not descend upon the pure land of Golden Cloud Secret Realm, but rather the already fallen Other Shore.
At first glance, the place was filled with an eerie atmosphere. Everywhere you looked, the plants and trees were twisted and growing wildly. Occasionally, some surviving birds and beasts would fly by, but they had long since become indescribable monsters whose original species could not be identified.
With a wave of his hand, Li Lan snatched a hunting eagle, instantly killing it and extracting its strange aura. He then said:
“The shackles within you have been broken. Once you return, he will easily discover you. I will use an eerie aura to conceal it, and you will be safe.”
As he spoke, he had already reforged the original shackles and implanted them into the life essence of the Moon Slave.
Yue Nu's expression changed slightly, and she became somewhat nervous. However, when she realized that the shackles in her life essence were merely in form and did not truly control her life and death, she breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, if Li Lan, like Gu Tingyi, used the shackles of life to control her, how could she believe that Li Lan and Gu Tingyi were two different kinds of people, and how could she believe that Li Lan would keep his promise to take her away in the future?
"The most recent selection took place in the Dark River."
She spoke up and told Li Lan in detail about Gu Tingyi's selection of alchemy servants.
Li Lan nodded and said, "Alright, then we shall part ways here."
Yue Nu must go back to see Gu Tingyi first. Li Lan can only get close to the Heavenly Evil Furnace and find a chance to leave this world by disguising himself as a strange creature and passing the selection.
"You...be careful."
Before parting, Yue Nu couldn't help but give one more piece of advice.
The two then parted ways.
Li Lan did not rush to the Dark River, but instead hunted in the nearby mountains and fields, killing many strange creatures and collecting their strange auras.
In addition, he even tried to directly introduce eerie energy into his life essence.
In just three months, he became filled with an eerie aura, completely transforming into a strange being that no one could tell the difference.
So he changed his appearance and grew a pair of wings on his back—the only “unspeakable” thing he could accept.
Then he put on his cloak and immediately headed for the Dark River.
Before the other shore fell into the bizarre, there were many forces, and the Dark River was one of the super forces, with countless powerful figures who ruled over a region.
He had previously learned about the Dark Moon Ancestor, and now with the help of Moon Slave, he was quite familiar with the Dark Nether River. He bypassed many defenses and took three days to reach a mountain range.
This mountain range is known as "Dark Bone Mountain," and has been the burial place of the Dark River since ancient times.
The strongest figures of all time are buried here. Originally, it was just a cemetery. However, since the arrival of the strange phenomenon, life and death have been reversed. Strong figures who died here often return as new strange creatures. Moreover, these strange creatures are all quite talented, so they are now highly valued.
Li Lan dug a hole and buried himself in it, letting himself be imbued with the atmosphere of this place.
I stayed there for half a month.
On this day, suddenly someone arrived. Several stewards of the Dark River drove a group of Dark River people with lower cultivation levels to this place.
"Your lineage is far too weak, only now having mutated to this extent. It's a waste for you to be alive. From this day forward, you will only become 'blood slaves' of the Dark River. If you can guide our predecessors back, we will spare your lives; otherwise, you will bleed to death here—"
The head deacon spoke in a cold voice.
"Deacon Roy, give us another chance! We're sure we can become qualified Outcasts!"
"Yes, we can definitely shed our human identities and evolve into Otherworlders, please..."
Many people were pleading, but the deacon coldly said, "Stop arguing. Will you do it yourselves, or will we do it?"
