Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 413
Chapter 413 Jiang Li’s Statue
“Killing a fallen immortal can also gain the power of merit?”
Jiang Li shook his head slightly. This seemed strange.
The Heavenly Dao destroys all living things, so killing people can gain the power of merit. This is understandable.
But if you say killing a fallen immortal can also gain the power of merit, does that mean that the Heavenly Dao not only wants to destroy the heavens and myriad realms, but also the immortal realm?
This doesn’t make sense. What does it want?
A clean conscience?
Ever since Jiang Li understood the reason why the Heavenly Dao developed spiritual intelligence, his image of the Heavenly Dao has undergone a 180-degree transformation.
Immortal Changcun handed Jiang Li the statue of Venerable Shenzang and said sternly, “So you should understand how powerful the Heavenly Dao is. Even the statue of its incarnation is so strong…”
Jiang Li took the statue and, with a gentle force, broke it in two.
Immortal Changcun: “…”
“Master is very powerful, but even he can’t make his image indestructible. Even if you are stronger than him, you are probably not much stronger…”
Jiang Li handed the statue of his own image to Immortal Changcun, motioning him to smash it.
Immortal Changcun tried hard but couldn’t pry open Jiang Li’s statue.
Immortal Changcun: “…”
He couldn’t continue.
“In short, now that you know the truth, you will eventually have to face the powerful immortal world and the way of heaven that is above all living things. You must be mentally prepared. This is destined to be a cruel battle of life and death.”
Immortal Changcun didn’t lay the groundwork, forced a conclusion, and said what he wanted to say.
“The statue of Venerable Shenzang is very hard. I need to use the power of a celestial immortal to break it.” Jiang Li explained to the three.
Bai Hongtu, curious, smashed Jiang Li’s statue with all his strength, but the statue was naturally intact.
Yu Yin glanced at Bai Hongtu, thinking that he was treating him differently.
Bai Hongtu didn’t use such great strength when he smashed the statue of Venerable Shenzang.
“Then how much strength would it take to shatter your own statue?”
Jiang Li thought Bai Hongtu’s question was foolish. “The statue’s image is mine. How could its sturdiness affect me in person? Of course it would shatter at the slightest touch.”
“To prove which statue is stronger, we can only find a celestial being to test it. But now all the celestial beings are in the immortal realm, so where can we find one…”
Jiang Li was mid-sentence when he suddenly remembered a seemingly foolish celestial being in Jiuzhou.
“Alright, that’s why we came to see the Immortal Elder to discuss these matters. Immortal Elder, enjoy your retirement. Let the younger generation take the next step.”
With the matter concluded, Jiang Li stood up and said goodbye to the Immortal Elder.
Yu Yin, feeling that the trip was worthwhile, having learned so many secrets, returned to the Tianyuan Dynasty.
Bai Hongtu pondered over the small statue of Jiang Li, feeling that his plan to defeat Jiang Li was too hasty.
“Should the first step in defeating Jiang Li be to shatter the statue?”
The Immortal Elder Changcun, standing nearby, worried that Bai Hongtu wouldn’t even be able to take that first step.
“Grandmaster, why don’t you create a few more realms, like the Loose Immortal Stage? Maybe I can break through too.” Bai Hongtu was eager to try, imitating the Immortal Changcun as a powerful being who could make anything he said. The
Immortal Changcun rolled his eyes and ignored Bai Hongtu.
…
Jiang Li arrived at the Red Dust Pure Land. It was as peaceful as ever, secluded from the world, a place of peace and tranquility.
The world had changed so much, but the Red Dust Pure Land remained the same as it had been nine thousand years ago, quietly nestling in the western corner of Kyushu, untouched by worldly concerns.
“Please let them know that Jiang Li is visiting,”
Jiang Li said to the two female disciples at the door. He had the feeling that their once innocent eyes had changed the moment they laid eyes on him.
Like… like they were going to eat him?
Perhaps it was an illusion.
The Holy Maiden of Pure Heart, blushing, descended the mountain to greet Jiang Li. Sect
Master Qingyu had gone to visit the Buddhist sect again, and she had temporarily taken over the Red Dust Pure Land.
Jiang Li realized it wasn’t an illusion. The female disciples from the Red Dust Pure Land heard he was coming, put down their books, and looked over at him, their eyes mirroring those of the two female disciples at the mountain gate.
Jiang Li noticed they weren’t reading scriptures or exercises, but also “The Domineering Mahayana Fell in Love with Me (Part 2).”
Could there be a second part to this?
Didn’t the first part feature the two of them getting married and having twins? Could there be a sequel?
Jiang Li had read the first part, and the content was similar to what he’d written in his middle school days, so awkward that he shattered space and shattered the void.
Did they divorce and get back together, or did the male protagonist lose his memory and start over?
Judging by the way the female disciples were all holding a copy, this second part must be quite popular.
“Are you here to see me this time?” The Pure Heart Saint was nervous, pinching the corner of her clothes.
“That’s half right.”
“What do you mean?”
“I’m here to find your great-grandmaster.”
“What’s half?”
“‘Your’ great-grandmaster,’ you guessed two out of four.”
“…”
Jiang Li found Fairy Hongchen again. She was as innocent and carefree as ever. Being around the fairy, he would unconsciously be infected by the atmosphere around her and relax.
“Greetings, Fairy.”
“You are too polite, Your Majesty,” Fairy Hongchen replied, trying to look serious. However, she had just been lying on the lawn, and when she stood up, there were still leaves in her hair, making it impossible to look serious.
Saint Jingxin stepped forward to help her great-grandmaster straighten his appearance.
“Don’t move, there are leaves here.”
“Oh.”
Jiang Li took out the statues of Venerable Shenzang and Jiang Li.
“Is this for me?” Fairy Hongchen gazed at the Jiang Li statue, enamored. She had seen many Jiang Li statues during her travels, but had never had the opportunity to buy one.
As for the statue of Venerable Shenzang, Fairy Hongchen ignored it.
It was a strange, unattractive statue.
“If you like it, Fairy, I can give you two more. But before that, please try to crush these two.”
Fairy Hongchen was puzzled by Jiang Li’s request, but she still complied.
“Such a hard statue.” She grasped the statue of Venerable Shenzang and used all her strength to crush it.
When it came to the Jiang Li statue, the fairy exerted her utmost strength, her pretty face flushing crimson, but still couldn’t break it.
“What kind of material is your statue made of? Even I can’t break it?” Fairy Hongchen was puzzled.
Jiang Li smiled, without explanation, and instead gave the fairy one of his own statues as a thank you.
After Fairy Hongchen’s experience, he had a rough assessment of Venerable Shenzang’s strength.
Weaker than himself.
“By the way, can you give me another statue?”
“Why would you want two, fairy?”
Fairy Hongchen chuckled, “Giving them away.”
After Jiang Li left, Fairy Hongchen gave one of the statues to Saint Pure Heart.
“Master, how did you know I liked this statue?” Saint Pure Heart was delighted and planned to place the statue in a place of meditation to help her focus her mind and achieve twice the result with half the effort.
“Because I’m different from the Human Emperor, I’m not blind.”
…
Leaving the Red Dust Pure Land, Jiang Li suddenly remembered that he was immune to the charm of fairies.
“Fairies are the embodiment of the beauty of Heaven. Those who practice Heaven cannot be separated from Heaven, and therefore cannot resist the charm of fairies.”
“Could it be that I’m stronger than Heaven, so I’m immune?”
