Chapter 193 Offending the Celestial Venerable

Chapter 140 Not Knowing How To Fly

Yan Jingzhu was greatly surprised: "Your Dao practice is that of a Liexian, a dignified Liexian... and you can't fly?"

Ji Xiang: "I'm truly ashamed. Liexian don't know how to fly, so can the fairy give me a ride?"

"Or I saw a staircase over there before, but after you woke me up, the staircase disappeared. I don't know why."

Yan Jingzhu didn't know what to say for a moment.

She grabbed Ji Xiang's shoulder, and flying clouds rose beneath her feet, carrying Ji Xiang towards that sky.

This was where the gods of the first level of the True Spirit Rank Chart were located. Looking down from this first-level sky, the six levels of the sky below could be seen clearly. Numerous heavenly gods, immortal officials, loose immortals, feathered guests, and ghost gods of the earth immortal class, their shadows flickering, each resided within the Seven Heavens, without interfering with each other.

In the middle sat a figure, its appearance being none other than the Yuanshi Tianzun!

Boom, white smoke burst out from Ji Xiang's body, and the Tongtian Mingyan (All-Pervading Bright Smoke) completely enveloped the Yuanshi Tianzun!

"What are you doing!"

Yan Jingzhu didn't react in time, and her expression changed drastically. This Yuanshi Tianzun was transformed from the core scripture in the Donghua Jade Canon. How could the might of an immortal scripture allow others to be presumptuous?

She immediately raised the bell and struck it!

Although the bell sounded loudly, the Yuanshi Tianzun's figure still opened his eyes suddenly. He only raised his hand, and then paused, as if affected by the bell sound, the original palm strike turned into a finger flick.

Instantly, the entire sky turned into a nine-colored divine light pressing down, but Ji Xiang was not ambiguous either, and a nine-colored divine light also appeared at his fingertip!

The Taixu Baoguang (Grand Void Precious Light) circled the sky once, and the divine light released by the Yuanshi Tianzun's figure disappeared completely. False light met true light, and naturally melted away. This scene also made Yan Jingzhu's gaze freeze in the sky, and finally landed on the inch of divine light at Ji Xiang's fingertip.

"Taixu Baoguang! Are you also a Dao Child of the Yuanshi Tianzun?"

Yan Jingzhu was very surprised. She recognized the true form of this inch of divine light at a glance. This was the Taixu Baoguang that only the Yuanshi Tianzun's divine position receiver possessed!

"Not really. I'm not a Dao Child of the Yuanshi Tianzun, but I have some acquaintance with the Tianzun. As for the origin of this precious light, it actually gave it to me after slapping one of its unworthy disciples to death."

Ji Xiang was telling the truth.

But Yan Jingzhu showed an expression that said, "Are you kidding me?" Her brows furrowed, and she looked somewhat dazed and full of doubt.

"The Yuanshi Tianzun is a divine tablet... it was originally offered by our Shangqing Sect. Okay, even if the Yuanshi Tianzun's divine tablet really transformed into a human form, how could you have an acquaintance with the Yuanshi Tianzun, after all... you can't even fly."

Ji Xiang: "Ah, this... does not being able to fly mean I can't have an acquaintance with the Tianzun? Anyway, I'm not lying to you, but you don't believe me anyway."

Yan Jingzhu laughed angrily, put one hand on her hip, and scolded with a smile, "I think you're crazy. You attacked the Tianzun as soon as you came up, holding the Taixu Baoguang but not being a Yuanshi Dao Child, and not even a member of my Shangqing Sect. You keep talking about having an old relationship with the Tianzun. What are you here for?"

She looked at the Yuanshi Tianzun's figure. Fortunately, this Tianzun figure didn't make any particularly outrageous movements.

This figure was the third owner of the Yuanshi Tianzun divine tablet, left in this world of immortal scriptures, and this owner was also the source of the Shangqing Sect's myriad techniques.

Ji Xiang thought to himself that he was just trying to see if he could take the Tianzun's figure back, but now it seemed that he had failed. White smoke surged around the Tianzun, and the Yuanshi Tianzun's figure had eyes as bright as lightning, with no pupils visible. At the same time, his face was still blurry, and the Tongtian Mingyan could not take this figure away.

"Fairy, what is the origin of the Donghua Jade Canon? I see that you recognize the Taixu Baoguang and also mentioned the words 'Dao Child'. Dao Child, I understand what it means, so, could it be that Qing Tongjun was also a Yuanshi Dao Child?"

"In other words, the Donghua Immortal Canon was created by a Yuanshi Dao Child?"

Yan Jingzhu chuckled: "You crazy man just scared me a lot. You still want me to answer your questions? No way!"

Ji Xiang: "To be honest, I offended a Yuanshi Dao Child and want to know how to kill this kind of person."

Yan Jingzhu laughed again, the girl as delicate as a flower, just looked at Ji Xiang with great interest, and then glared at Ji Xiang, without answering.

Obviously, Ji Xiang's unprovoked attack had startled her, and she was currently angry.

Ji Xiang knew that he couldn't get any information from this fairy, but he could guess a little. The Yuanshi Tianzun in front of him, I am afraid that this figure was left by Qing Tongjun.

The Shangqing Sect's founder, Madam Wei, once obtained the divine text from Qingxu Zhenren and taught a part of the Shangqing ancestral scriptures. She also obtained the *Huangting Neijing* (Yellow Court Inner Scripture) from Jinglin Zhenren, which was also known as the *Donghua Yujing* (Donghua Jade Canon).

Donghua is the name of Fangzhu Palace, where the Qing Tongjun of the East Sea resides.

Since he couldn't obtain the Yuanshi Tianzun's figure now, then he should just go through the formal process and pass a trial.

Ji Xiang thought to himself: There must be something here that attracts me. The blank divine tablet is a treasure in Fuli, and it is the only one among the gods that has no name. It has neither past nor future, and no one worships it, yet it possesses a divine tablet. The thing that can make it react and bring myself into this painted world must be extraordinary.

Perhaps, it can help the blank divine tablet find its lost, or non-existent, name?

Regarding the name, Ji Xiang had also tried to write his name on the divine tablet. Of course, this divine tablet existed in the inner world, and no force could change it. The name could not be written on it, and Ji Xiang even felt that although this divine tablet existed in his inner world, it was as if it did not exist. As long as he didn't deliberately look for it, it was as if it was his body, inseparable from each other.

Due to Ji Xiang's major actions just now, the many heavenly god figures of the first heaven had avoided him. Now that Ji Xiang was no longer moving, they returned to their positions, but their burning gazes revealed their awe of Ji Xiang. Then, the gods seemed to be preparing to arrange their seats, because the Yuanshi Tianzun's figure was about to begin preaching the Dao.

This Dao could only be heard by the gods of the first heaven.

"The Dao that the Yuanshi Tianzun is currently preaching is just a little bit of the Immortal Canon. As for what Immortal Canon it is, I don't know."

Yan Jingzhu rested her cheek on her hand, her eyes playful, as if to remind Ji Xiang slightly.

Ji Xiang saw that there was no place for him, so he decided to fight for one.

Without considering the seats in the back, Ji Xiang went straight forward. The heavenly gods behind him made way for Ji Xiang, which made Yan Jingzhu even more puzzled. She changed from resting one hand on her cheek to resting both hands on her cheeks, put down the small bell, and curiously wanted to see what else Ji Xiang could do.

"If you collide with the Tianzun again, I won't care about you."

She issued a warning, still very concerned about what was about to happen.

Ji Xiang saw an empty seat in front of the Yuanshi Tianzun, so he immediately stepped forward, but unexpectedly a tall figure suddenly appeared in the clouds and collided with Ji Xiang.

This figure came up from the second heaven!

"Strange, isn't it said that only the gods of the first heaven can hear the Yuanshi's preaching? This is a god of the second heaven, how did he come here?"

Ji Xiang turned his head to ask, but saw Yan Jingzhu's beautiful eyes widening, her red lips slightly parted, with a look of shock.

"What's wrong...?"

"Second Heaven... Main God."

Yan Jingzhu's voice was not loud, but Ji Xiang was also shocked!

"The Main God of the True Spirit Rank Chart's Second Heaven is..."

"Lingbao Tianzun!"
