When Zhen Yuanzi took Hong Yun's Nine-Nine Spirit-killing Gourd from Ming He, he appeared astonished with just one glance and returned to his Taoist Temple immediately. He closed down the entire Taoist Temple upon his arrival. What had made Zhen Yuanzi so cautious?

He walked into the closed-door meditation room and sealed it with his magical power. Then, he took out the Nine-Nine Spirit-killing Gourd and said, in a vigilant tone, "Fellow Taoist Ming He, come out please." Was Ming He hiding in Hong Yun's red gourd? What for?

A blue light flashed and it was Ming He's Good Separation, Taoist of Heaven and Earth. He smiled and said, "I'm Taoist of Heaven and Earth, Good Separation of Ancestor Ming He. Nice to meet you, I do not want you to be nervous. If I wanted to kill someone, there would be no one able to prevent me. "Following his voice was a vigor, quickly gone.

Yet, it shocked Zhen Yuanzi. He never thought that Ming He's Good Separation also got high cultivation, Sage-to-be Peak Level. No one would believe it.

In Untainted Land, separation are to add to Yidam's cultivation. Yet, normally, separation won't get higher cultivation than Yidam does. What's more, once separations are destroyed, it will take great effort and cost to repair. Thus, it will influence Yidam's cultivation. If their separations were not be repaired, it will damage Yidam's Foundation. Therefore, no one will use their three separations to fight with same-level rivals.

Unlike them, Ming He's Good Separation, Taoist of Heaven and Earth, got the same cultivation as Ming He himself did. What's more, Zhen Yuanzi sensed the power of Law in the flashed vigor. Since he was named Heaven and Earth, he likely mastered the Law of Heaven and Earth, which was used by Ming He to eye on Hong Meng Immortal Qi and Individual Cultivators just now.

Zhen Yuanzi thought, "So how powerful will his Evil Separation be? Ming He has hidden his strength well. If he wanted to kill me, he wouldn't hide in the red gourd or make himself discoverable. What do his words mean?"

After thinking it through, Zhen Yuanzi began to relax and asked, "Fellow Taoist Heaven and Earth, what did you mean by 'Hong Yun is not dead, go back quickly'? Could it be ..." So, that was why Zhen Yuanzi had hurried to return to the Wuzhuang Taoist Temple.

Taoist of Heaven and Earth smiled, waved his sleeves, and suddenly, a figure was lying on the cloud bed. Zhen Yuanzi was astonished and shouted, "Hong Yun. I thought you were dead. Fellow Taoist, thank you for saving Hong Yun. "

Taoist of Heaven and Earth waved his hands and said, "You're welcome. Though Hong Yun committed exploding suicide, a piece of his soul was left in the Nine-Nine Spirit-killing Gourd. I was just doing you a favor that costs me nothing. But, Fellow Taoist Hong Yun's remaining soul is very weak. Though I am nouris.h.i.+ng it with the Three-Light Holy Water, to get him out of danger, it will take a long time for him to recover."

Hong Yun's remaining soul would probably disappear if there was any attack. Zhen Yuanzi had an excited look on his face when he said, "Thank you for your help. Otherwise, Hong Yun would have definitely died if Nine-Nine Spirit-killing Gourd had been stolen by Kun Peng."

Taoist of Heaven and Earth replied, "I hear that your Fellow Taoists have a Highest Grade primordial spirit root, called Ginseng Tree, which is one of the five natural spiritual roots, of the East Wood. You can put the remaining pieces of Hong Yun into the root to get nourishment, so he will recover soon."

On hearing that, Zhen Yuanzi said, "Thank you very much for reminding me. I will go and get it now. Just a moment." He then took Hong Yun and disappeared. A few minutes later, Zhen Yuanzi came back with a plate full of baby-shaped fruit. There were about nine Ginsengs.

Zhen Yuanzi sent the Ginsengs to Ming He and said, "Here is some fruit from the Ginseng Tree. A present to you, for saving Hong Yun." Though Ming He had gotten the Hong Meng Immortal Qi, after all, he had taken it from Kun Peng, not by robbing Hong Yun. And, most importantly, he saved Hong Yun. Therefore, Zhen Yuanzi felt very grateful.

"I accept it. I've heard about the Ginseng fruit. They are really unusual," said Taoist of Heaven and Earth. Again he waved his sleeves and the fruit vanished. He didn't take the time to taste them since he had pressing things to do.

Since Taoist of Heaven and Earth did not taste them, Zhen Yuanzi knew Ming He must have sent him here for some other reason. Or, he would not be hiding in the Nine-Nine Spirit-killing Gourd, to avoid being recognized by others.

Zhen Yuanzi said, "You are not here just for Hong Yun. Since Fellow Taoist Ming He saved Hong Yun, be free to tell me what it is you need. I'll do as much as I can. "

Taoist of Heaven and Earth smiled and thought Zhen Yuanzi was so smart. Of course, Ming He would not waste time just for sending Hong Yun's remaining soul back. Then he said, "You are really intelligent, indeed my Yidam has something to consult with you."

"What is it?" Zhen Yuanzi asked. He thought that Ming He must have something important to share, or he would not be so cautious. Taoist of Heaven and Earth said, "The first thing --- Can I borrow your Book of the Nether World? "

Zhen Yuanzi was skeptical. He wasn't afraid of being robbed, but this was his Eternal Spiritual Treasure. Why was Ming He so interested in it? Yet, without giving it another thought, Zhen Yuanzi took out his Book of the Nether World and gave it over to Taoist of Heaven and Earth.

Taking the Book of the Nether World, Taoist of Heaven and Earth started to comprehend it all at once. Meanwhile, Ming He, in the blood sea, received Taoist of Heaven and Earth's Spiritual thoughts and was comprehending the book's contents at the same time, by the Law of Spiritual Beings.

Ming He was curious about it. Among the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Mortal, The Heaven Book was Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds, which was to ent.i.tle the G.o.ds of the Heavenly Court and it was the most valuable treasure of the Heavenly Court. The Book of Life and Death was the most valuable treasure of The Nether World, which was in charge of the Creatures' lives and deaths----all of those under the Sages-to-be level would be recorded in it.

What about the Book of the Nether World? Together, with the Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds and the Book of Life and Death, they made up the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Mortal, which had surprising magical power. Therefore, Ming he sent Taoist of Heaven and Earth to find out its secret. Perhaps Zhen Yuanzi could be his ally, if all was as he presumed.

Zhen Yuanzi didn't stop them. After a short while, Taoist of Heaven and Earth opened his eyes with a smile on his face. He gave the back book to Zhen Yuanzi and said, "Fellow Taoist Zhen Yuanzi, you should comprehend this book carefully. It is really an extraordinary resource. Perhaps you'll find your way of Rectification in it."

Zhen Yuanzi was amazed, he had had this book for a very long time, and it was his Eternal Spiritual Treasure, yet he still hadn't found out his way of Rectification. Even though he knew about its great power of defense, by calling up a land force, he had still not found his way. Taoist of Heaven and Earth just read the book once and was able to completely comprehend it, revealing some secrets, based on his look.

Just as Zhen Yuanzi was about to ask, the Taoist of Heaven and Earth said, "I know what you want to ask me, but G.o.d's secret cannot be released. You need to figure out your own way. I cannot help." Hearing that, Zhen Yuanzi calmed down. That was right! He needed to figure out the best path for himself. Others' opinions might not be the truth.

Ming He himself, far away from here in the Blood Sea, was smiling. Just as he had presumed, the Book of the Nether World held a shocking secret, the same as the Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds and the Book of Life and Death. When properly used, a compet.i.tive force would rise, which would be able to rival the Heavenly Court and The Nether World. However, you win some, you lose some. So, Zhen Yuanzi would not be a Carefree Immortal anymore.
