I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Chapter 450: Buddha and Demon in One (2)

In order to prevent the Demon Head from escaping, the formation Token of the eighteen levels of prison was held separately by all the righteous gods of the Heavenly Prison, and it could only be opened when activated simultaneously.

Upon hearing this, Colonel Niu and the others did not think much and directly handed over the Token to Sun Changsheng.

This was not the first time for such an event, and there had been no issues with the Heavenly Prison for a millennium. The rules set in those days had slackened to the extreme. For example, officials privately contacting prisoners was also a violation of the heavenly decrees, but now it had gradually become a habit through subtle influences.

Sun Changsheng entered the eighteenth level of prison and activated the Prohibition Token to open one of the cells.

The old Taoist with white hair was seated cross-legged in prison. Sensing the fluctuation of the prohibition, he lifted his eyelids and said, “You just took blood essence a few days ago, why have you come again?”

“Trap Empty Island Friend, do not worry, today it is not for blood essence.”

Sun Changsheng spoke of the Eastern Emperor’s banquet and, with a clasped fist, said, “I only ask for a scroll of Ancient Scripture, and in return after the banquet, I am willing to give you a thousand Spirit Stones.”

“Humph! I’d rather die than send a congratulatory gift to the birthday banquet of that old Hua Yang.”

Upon hearing the name of the Eastern Emperor, Trap Empty Island could not help but snort coldly.

It had been nine hundred years since he first proved himself as a Heavenly Monarch, but Huayangzi arrived, using the excuse of killing a prisoner with a Heavenly Monarch Thunder Tribulation, and captured the newly appointed Island Master of Trap Empty Island into the Heavenly Prison.

Back then, Huayangzi was already a True God, and perhaps far from being comparable to human immortals, bullying a newly ascended Divinity Transformation was easy.

Sun Changsheng said with a smile, “Don’t be so stubborn, my friend. You have less than five hundred years of life left; do you intend to let the lineage of Trap Empty Island come to an end?”

Trap Empty Island asked, “If I give you the Ancient Scripture, will the lineage not come to an end?”

Sun Changsheng shook his head and said, “I can’t guarantee that, but having Spirit Stones can at least extend life a little longer.”

Trap Empty Island was silent for a long time and then slowly revealed a scroll of Ancient Scripture.

The origins of the demon cults are ancient and long, protected by ancestors from the upper realm, passing through numerous eras without interruption in their inheritance; Trap Empty Island had collected many unique classics and records.

“Thank you, friend.”

Sun Changsheng carefully memorized it, and it turned out to be a scroll written by a venerable sage of the orthodox path. He waved his hand and sent Spirit Stones into the cell.

He activated the Token, locking down the Formation and Prohibition.

Mounting a cloud, he flew toward the Emperor Lord Palace, encountering many righteous gods along the way who had received the message and greeted him warmly.

Before long.

Upon arrival at the Emperor Lord Palace, Sun Changsheng found that over a hundred righteous gods had already convened, each of them at least of a mid-third rank position.

Descending from the cloud, celestial soldiers led the way.

A moment later.

A voice announced through the hall, “Sun Heavenly Master, a scroll of Ancient Scriptures.”

The assembled gods upon hearing this, all showed signs of surprise, as rumors had it that the Heavenly Master was best at grave-digging, and now reincarnated, he seemingly retained his skills. ṝΆNОʙЕŚ

Huayangzi sat at the head of the table with an air of boundless majesty, much more so than a thousand years ago.

“Sun Heavenly Master, please take your seat.”

“Thank you, Emperor.”

Sun Changsheng sat in the position to the right, next to Gu Xiao, obviously arranged to seat him beside an acquaintance.

Once all righteous gods were present, the banquet officially began.

Huayangzi said, “Back in the day, the Heavenly Master enjoyed fine wines. I have spent hundreds of years searching throughout the Divine Continent and have found many millenary fine wines. Today, I have brought them all out to celebrate the prosperity of the Heavenly Court and the return of the Heavenly Master!”

All the gods sang in affirmation, as celestial soldiers brought in jars of wine.

The Heavenly Court, ruling over the Divine Continent for a millennium, meant that the celestial soldiers were at least Golden Core-level. Watching them handling the wine jars, swaying as they did so, it was hard to tell how much liquor was in them.

Whoosh!

The celestial soldiers poured the wine, like a lake tipping over.

The wine cups were no ordinary items, as thousands of pounds of liquor poured into them and barely filled them up.

Sun Changsheng couldn’t help but exclaim, “Worthy of being a True God of transcendent void, one of the few titans of the Heavenly Court. Just the wine used for this celebration could fill several large lakes.”

The seated righteous gods were no ordinary individuals either, picking up the cups filled with thousands of pounds of wine and draining them in one gulp.

The fragrance of the wine spread everywhere, refreshing the hearts of those present.

Sun Changsheng drank several cups in succession, not using mana to dissipate the alcohol, and even became slightly intoxicated.

“Excellent wine!”

A few celestial soldiers attended to him, immediately refilling his cup whenever it was empty.

The banquet lasted for several days, with Sun Changsheng letting loose and drinking dry over a dozen jars by himself. The dragon liver, phoenix marrow, and other delicacies were naturally not worth mentioning, as any one of them would be considered Superior Spiritual Objects in the Mortal World.

By the end of the feast, Sun Changsheng was thoroughly drunk, swaying as he left the great hall.

“Back to the Heavenly Prison.”

Riding the clouds and mist, I flew for over two thousand miles, when suddenly my mana began to falter, the cloud beneath my feet dissipated, and I plummeted to the ground.

With a thud, I crashed through the palace roof.

Sun Changsheng scratched his head and looked around, only to find countless spirit pills and magical elixirs.

“Is this… the Immortal Elixir Hall under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Department?”

The Heavenly Department is the most lavish department in the Heavenly Court, overseeing all the Spiritual Object Veins of Dongsheng Divine Continent and comprising three subordinate departments of pill, magic artifact, and spell management. It processes the collected Spiritual Objects and then sells them at market price to the Righteous Gods.

This is also one of the benefits for the Heavenly Court Righteous Gods; as long as one has enough incense and Spirit Stones, they can purchase any kind of spirit pills or magic artifacts.

“Intruding the Elixir Hall is a grave crime; I must leave quickly!”

Sun Changsheng’s mana circulated, and the alcohol fumes dissipated substantially. Just as he was about to transform into a beam of escape light and leave, he caught sight of a pill furnace standing in the hall.

Seven-colored flames blazed fiercely. Layer upon layer of formations and prohibitions sealed and confined it, yet they couldn’t prevent the lid from constantly jumping. It seemed as if the pill furnace contained something alive that kept assailing the seals. Every time the lid opened, a rich fragrance of pills and Buddhist light spilled out,

“Buddhist medicine?”

Sun Changsheng’s thoughts swirled, and his eyes sparkled with insight as he peered through the cracks in the furnace lid.

“Is that a Shariputra inside the furnace? With such an aura, it must be left behind by some Arhat. How could such a Spirit Mountain Supreme Treasure appear here in the Heavenly Court?”

“No wonder the pill furnace is constantly jolting. Though the Arhat Shariputra is an inanimate object, it retains the will of Buddhist Law from its previous life. Forcibly refining it must be as difficult as dueling with an Immortal!”

As this realization dawned on Sun Changsheng, he suddenly understood that he might have stumbled upon an extraordinary secret.

What difference is there between the Heavenly Court refining an Arhat’s Shariputra and defying the Three Teachings?

“I’m out of here, out of here. Such matters are not for me…”

Sun Changsheng formed a spell with his hands and restored the damaged roof of the hall.

Yet before his escape light could fly out of the Elixir Hall, a beam of Buddhist light wrapped around him, forcibly pulling him into the pill furnace.

“What’s going on?”

Sun Changsheng’s mana flowed, and he spat out hundreds of talismanic seals to protect himself, gazing at the Shariputra relics within arm’s reach, which were covered in cracks.

“This Shariputra is on the verge of extinction!”

————Just wait a moment for the refresh, the story’s not finished yet…

“Good wine!”

Several heavenly soldiers stood by, refilling his cup as soon as it was empty.

The banquet lasted for several days, and Sun Changsheng let loose, drinking dry over a dozen jars by himself, not to mention the other delicacies of dragon liver and phoenix marrow, all of which were Superior Spiritual Objects that would be treasures in the Mortal World.

By the time the banquet ended, Sun Changsheng was thoroughly drunk, swaying as he left the grand hall.

“Back to the Heavenly Prison.”

Riding the clouds and mist, I flew for over two thousand miles, when suddenly my mana began to falter, the cloud beneath my feet dissipated, and I plummeted to the ground.

With a thud, I crashed through the palace roof.

Sun Changsheng scratched his head and looked around, only to find countless spirit pills and magical elixirs.
