Chapter 1139 Purifying the Realm of Demons
Chapter 1139:
Completely unaware that he had been taken advantage of by the Cangyun God, Xiao Han walked out of the main hall in a cheerful mood.
The interdimensional teleportation array that once led to the Demon Realm can now only be used to return, not to go there.
However, since some treasure hunters had not yet returned, the Cangyun God Venerable told Xiao Han to go back and rest for a while, and then go to purify the interface after the Demon Realm was completely cleared.
To reward these cultivators who obtained special priesthood qualifications, the Divine Palace allocated each of them a free cave dwelling on a scenic floating island in the Second Heaven.
As long as they remain special priests, they will have the right to use the cave dwelling indefinitely.
Of course, once one loses their special priesthood, they lose the cave dwelling.
Xiao Han didn't know the quality of this cave dwelling, but for her, who was always away on business trips, renting a place was really difficult, and she always ended up spending money for nothing.
Now that she has a fixed cave dwelling that doesn't require rent, she is naturally very happy.
Following the address given by the Cangyun God, she arrived at a floating island called Ningxin Island in the Second Heaven.
On the summit of a large mountain in the central part of the island stands a magnificent and imposing building.
At the top of the building, the words "Divine Palace" flashed directly in the light of an array.
This is the official office of the shrine on the island.
Xiao Han flew over and landed on the small square in front of the main hall, then walked into the main hall in the center with the gate wide open.
There were two priests on duty inside.
Xiao Han handed over her identity token and said, "I'm here to claim my cave dwelling."
The priest took the token and placed it on a round magical plate to verify its authenticity.
Then he took out a magical artifact and handed it to Xiao Han.
"Fellow Daoist, please choose your own cave dwelling inside. These are all unclaimed cave dwellings. Just tell me the number after you have chosen one."
Xiao Han took it and immersed her divine sense into it. Immediately, it was like watching a short scenic video. It contained a panoramic dynamic display of each cave, including the front, back, left, right, and an aerial view.
These caves are built on various locations: some halfway up the mountain, some on flat ground, some on the mountaintop, and some near waterfalls and cliffs.
Although the places are different, each one is a place with very beautiful scenery.
Some places are full of exotic flowers and rare herbs, while others are shrouded in clouds and mist, appearing and disappearing indistinctly. Some places are full of strange rocks, exuding a wild charm, while others are full of ancient and majestic stone palaces, revealing an ancient and wild atmosphere.
In short, they come in various styles to satisfy the diverse preferences of the residents.
The cave dwellings are at least several dozen miles apart, allowing these great cultivators, who are accustomed to solitude, to have a peaceful space.
Unlike the Third Heaven, where everything—flowers, trees, buildings, and so on—is constructed entirely with the power of laws, the Second Heaven is more humane.
Xiao Han directly chose a cave dwelling filled with exotic flowers and rare herbs. Although she didn't like growing flowers, these exotic plants were indeed pleasing to the eye.
After selecting a cave dwelling, the attending priest handed her a restriction token.
Xiao Han had already seen the panoramic view of the entire floating island and knew the location of her cave.
Therefore, they quickly found this new home that temporarily belonged to them.
Upon entering the house, Xiao Han was overjoyed.
In Earth's terms, this is roughly equivalent to a fully furnished apartment that you can move into right away.
Inside, there were flowing, shimmering curtains, warm jade-colored stone tables and benches for personal use, fragrant wood tables and stools for entertaining guests, a white jade bed with exquisite carvings in the bedroom, and even a dressing table and other household furniture.
Then, there is a special study where various jade slips and books can be placed.
In short, the goal is to create a very lifelike atmosphere, which is truly rare for cultivators in the divine realm.
It seems that the shrine also wants these special priests who frequently travel on official business to have a home they can cherish.
Xiao Han took out some frequently used items from her storage bracelet and arranged them neatly. She also laid out soft pillows and blankets on her bed.
Although at their level of cultivation, it doesn't matter whether they sleep or not, and they don't need bedding, pillows, or other such items at all.
But Xiao Han felt that now that she no longer needed to meditate and cultivate all night, she had to make up for the regret she had missed for many years—sleeping in a soft blanket with a pillow under her head.
Just as she finished setting everything up, she sensed that Croton was calling to her.
He released the exquisite fairy abode, glanced at the croton seeds inside, and couldn't help but show a happy expression on his face.
Although the croton that flew out of the Linglong Immortal Abode was still that dark little bird, its aura clearly indicated that it had reached the True God Realm.
"Master, I've advanced! Hahaha."
Croton seeds danced and swirled inside the house, their joy overflowing.
Xiao Han was secretly pleased, but she teased it aloud, "Aren't you afraid of the tribulation lightning during your advancement?"
"Huh? Wasn't it said that there's no tribulation of lightning for advancement in the God Realm?"
Ba Dou was startled, and then his whole body trembled with fear.
Xiao Han burst into laughter.
The advancement to the God Realm indeed involved no tribulation lightning, which was practically the greatest benefit for the local inhabitants.
Ba Dou, a little bird who was always worried about the lightning tribulation and whose strength was the weakest of the weak, perfectly avoided all the lightning tribulation tests because he kept ascending with Xiao Han.
Xiao Han: "Can you transform into human form now?"
Ba Dou stopped, hovering in the air, and then said, with a mixture of joy and sorrow, "I cannot take human form."
Xiao Han: Okay, God is fair. Ba Dou has never been tested, so it will never have the chance to transform into a human.
Xiao Han stroked its shimmering black feathers and comforted it, "It's alright. Even if you can never take human form, I will still love you the same way."
Ba Dou said somewhat dejectedly, "I've always looked like this. Master, will you find me ugly?"
Xiao Han laughed loudly, "You've been with me for thousands of years, and now you're only worrying about this? Isn't it a bit too late?"
Ba Dou's eyes darted around, and he immediately flattered, "I know that Master values relationships the most. Ba Dou has been with Master for thousands of years, how could Master not like Ba Dou?"
Xiao Han rolled it up and threw it outside. "Alright, take a good look at everything here. This is our new home. As long as your master doesn't make any mistakes in his work, you can probably live here forever."
When Ba Dou saw his tall and spacious new home and the beautiful scenery outside, he immediately started squawking happily.
Xiao Han took out her communication magic item, contacted Xie Yi, and arranged to meet at a certain place to drink tea and chat.
She wanted to share with Xie Yi about meeting Ye Qi in the small world fairy mountain, since they could have something in common to talk about.
The purpose of old friends is to get together occasionally, chat about the past, and relax.
It is also a kind of alternative emotional support.
Of the old friends from the God Realm, Shui Wuhen is still on a mission and hasn't returned yet, Yun Que has gone to another realm to try and reach the top, and Xiao Han can only come to chat with Xie Yi.
At this moment, neither of them knew that Shangguan Feiyun had also ascended to the God Realm.
Xie Yi was very interested in Xiao Han's ability to undertake various extraterrestrial missions, but unfortunately, he was eliminated in the first round of the special priest registration exam.
After meeting with old friends, Xiao Han wandered around for another month. Just when she was getting a little bored, the Cangyun God told her that she could go to the Demon Realm to start working.
The Celestial Treasure for purifying the interface had already been given to her by the Divine Lord Cangyun, who had also told her the method of purification. Therefore, Xiao Han headed straight for the Demon Realm.
The priest in charge of guarding the interdimensional teleportation array had already received instructions, so after Xiao Han handed over her identity token for verification, the priest immediately let her pass.
Upon returning to the realm of demons and monsters, everything remained the same as before.
Xiao Han randomly chose a spot and took out a purifying magic treasure that Cangyun God had given her.
This is an item that looks a lot like a crystal ball.
After Xiao Han cast the spell according to the method taught to her by the Cangyun God, the crystal ball immediately turned into a transparent ball taller than a person.
Xiao Han touched the slightly bouncy, transparent sphere, and then her body easily entered it as if she were walking through a curtain of water.
The feeling inside is as if you're sinking into a thick liquid, yet there's nothing there.
Xiao Han sat down cross-legged and began to cast a spell to purify the area.
If a cultivator were to stand high in the sky and observe, they would see a layer of white light slowly spreading outwards from the crystal ball treasure as its center.
Then, Xiao Han began his long, tedious, and boring days of casting spells.
When she was really fed up, she went into the Linglong Immortal Abode, talked to Badou, ate some spiritual fruit, and then took a nap to relieve her tired spirit.
In this way, the white light from the crystal ball continuously dissolved the death energy, malevolent energy, demonic energy, and other unwanted chaotic energies within the interface.
The white light continued to spread, and the monsters and demons began to retreat and hide.
But once the monsters and demons huddled together, they began to devour and kill each other.
As the white light continued to spread, more and more demons disappeared.
As time goes by, the trees, flowers, and other plants that were first enveloped in the white light have begun to return to their normal colors.
Xiao Han stayed inside the crystal ball, casting spells to purify it, and stayed there for ten years.
Only after the entire interface was enveloped in white light, and no more demons remained, turning into a normal interface, did Xiao Han finally step out of the crystal ball.
The invisible, viscous liquid sensation inside the crystal ball had completely disappeared.
She picked up the crystal ball, stood high in the air, and looked at the refreshed interface, feeling that ten years of hard work had been well worth it.
It's like a filthy room that, after her vigorous cleaning and tidying, becomes spotless; that sense of accomplishment is quite satisfying.
The process was indeed quite arduous.
After purifying the interface, Xiao Han did not hesitate any longer. He once again entered the crystal ball and went deep underground, using the Crystal Ball Celestial Treasure to absorb the spiritual energy of this interface.
