Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1616 Linjiangxian 37

Everyone generally believed that Xiao Jingshan started causing trouble by trying to destroy the Wuliang Monument. In fact, he had been determined to make the heaven look bad since he obtained the way to practice cultivation.

Jiang Xinxin waited for another two months, but still couldn't find any more information about Xiao Jingshan. She simply made it clear and took action herself, going to find Immortal Pu Yuan to inquire about Xiao Jingshan's origins and experiences.

As one of the three Dharma Kings under Bai Jiusi, Immortal Lord Puyuan witnessed with his own eyes how Jiang Xinxin attacked his junior brother Immortal Lord Yongshou that day. He also personally followed Bai Jiusi's orders and arranged for people to secretly keep an eye on Jiang Xinxin. As a result, Jiang Xinxin actually came to him directly. His first reaction was of course that his surveillance had been discovered.

Although this was indeed the case, Jiang Xinxin was too lazy to care about those who were following her. She just wanted to know Xiao Jingshan's origins and experiences.

After much deliberation, Immortal Master Pu Yuan finally revealed everything he knew, hiding nothing. "Xiao Jingshan was a cultivator who ascended from mortal to immortal realm five or six hundred years ago. Later, with his remarkable weapon-refining skills, he became Master's right-hand man. If he hadn't made the mistake, Junior Brother Fan wouldn't have been able to guard the Prison Law Ruins."

These were all things Jiang Xinxin had already inquired about. She used her eyes to signal Immortal Master Pu Yuan to continue. Immortal Master Pu Yuan couldn't help but laugh, but he continued, "Speaking of which, Xiao Jingshan is truly amazing, and his luck is also extraordinary. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to ascend to the heavens in just a hundred years."

This is also what Jiang Xinxin had already guessed.

Seeing that Jiang Xinxin was not satisfied, Immortal Master Pu Yuan could only continue, "It's just that there are many gods and immortals who were born in the heavens. I don't know when it started, and there was a trend of ostracizing those who ascended. Xiao Jingshan quickly stood by the master, so naturally there were many jealous gods and immortals who secretly criticized him."

"So I guess he suddenly attacked the Wuliang Monument because he was discriminated against and felt resentful."

Jiang Xinxin had known about this for a long time and was already feeling a little impatient. However, she felt she could still say a few words about Xiao Jingshan being excluded. "I find the atmosphere in the heavenly realm truly worrying."

"Take me as an example. I have been cultivating in the mortal world all my life. Regardless of whether I was assigned by my master or I was lucky enough, I always had a blessed cave for me to cultivate. I also had many attendants to handle miscellaneous matters. Some were assigned by my master, and some were taught by me. But I am not a proper cultivator after all."

"On a daily basis, I see how attentively they serve me, so naturally I'm willing to give them a few more cultivation resources. If I encounter a truly talented and kind attendant, I'm even willing to recommend them to my master's sect and train them as formal disciples."

"However, the situation in the heavens is quite different. Surprisingly, many gods who grew up in the Danxia Realm directly treat the immortals who ascended from the lower realms as attendants. Some even directly arrange the ascended immortals as attendants. How shameless of them!"

At the end of her words, the disgust in Jiang Xinxin's heart came out directly, making Immortal Master Pu Yuan very embarrassed.

Immortal Lord Pu Yuan himself was fine. He did not differentiate between the gods who were born and raised in Danxia Realm and the immortals who ascended from the lower realms. However, he also knew the attitudes of other gods towards the immortals who ascended from the lower realms. He understood that although he did not do so, he had already tacitly agreed to this matter in his heart and was not innocent.

Pu Yuanxianjun, unable to continue, reluctantly said, "Please wait for a while, Fairy Yuan Xin. I will go back and immediately investigate more about Xiao Jingshan. As soon as I have any results, I will send you a copy immediately."

After saying this, Immortal Master Pu Yuan took his leave.

Jiang Xinxin felt that her attitude should have been conveyed to Bai Jiusi, so she felt at ease and sent her puppet to the Canglei Palace to inquire about Xiao Jingshan's news.

For some unknown reason, Bai Jiusi actually lifted the restrictions, so Jiang Xinxin soon learned more about Xiao Jingshan, such as how Xiao Jingshan attained enlightenment on Yinlian Mountain in the mortal world, founded the Yinlian Sect, and later ascended to the fairyland after his skills were mastered.

Ning Yan was filled with admiration after hearing this. "This Immortal Lord Xiao is truly amazing. He was able to comprehend the ways of nature and found a sect. No wonder he was able to ascend to the heavens!"

"More importantly, he was once the best weapon refiner in the Heaven Realm. Even today, many gods and immortals in the Heaven Realm use the divine and immortal weapons he refined."

Looking at Ning Yan's expression of admiration and worship, Jiang Xinxin could only sigh in her heart. You know, in her eyes, Xiao Jingshan's intention to kill gods had never been concealed.

For example, the Frost Scale Dagger is made from the heart-protecting scales of an ancient true dragon. Its blade is forged with blood and possesses immense power, capable of harming everything in the world, even ancient gods.

Another example is the Blood Bell, which has the power of bewitching. As long as a drop of blood is placed in it, no matter if it is a bird or beast or a human, god or ghost, it will be bewitched by it, falling into a boundless illusion and being controlled by the person.

There is also the Great Wilderness Stele, which has the power to capture people's souls and restrain their spirits. It seems to be a magical tool that is convenient for experiencing worldly affairs and tempering one's state of mind, but in fact it is also a murderous weapon that kills people invisibly.

Jiang Xinxin's unusual concern for Xiao Jingshan naturally attracted Bai Jiusi's attention, but he didn't think that Xiao Jingshan would be the mastermind behind the trouble between him and Hua Ruyue. After all, during the ten days when he was punished by thunder, Xiao Jingshan was also imprisoned in the Heavenly Punishment Platform and had no ability to go out and cause trouble.

Moreover, Xiao Jingshan had just come out of the Heavenly Punishment Platform, and now his spiritual platform was about to shatter, all his skills had dissipated, making it even more impossible for him to do anything.

Waving his hand to let Immortal Master Puyuan leave, Bai Jiusi once again focused his attention on Li Qingyue. He had to know why Hua Ruyue had killed him without hesitation!

Jiang Xinxin simply went to find Xiao Jingshan.

Unlike other gods who were well-dressed, Xiao Jingshan even had his hair loose and wore clothes made of fine cotton produced in the mortal world. He did not look like an immortal who had ascended to heaven, but rather like a bohemian hermit in the forest.

But the gloom between his brows made him look nothing like a leisurely and relaxed hermit in the woods.

However, after seeing Xiao Jingshan, Jiang Xinxin finally understood why he had not come to see her. It turned out that his physical condition did not allow it, and he was about to return to the world.

Xiao Jingshan sat there without getting up, and greeted Jiang Xinxin with a forced smile, "Fairy Yuan Xin, thank you for your courtesy. I have long heard of your name, and meeting you today is truly unforgettable."

Jiang Xinxin also smiled and said politely, "Xiao Xianjun, you are too polite. I am just a casual cultivator in the mortal world. I cannot compare to Xiao Xianjun's feat of establishing a sect and ascending to heaven."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingshan couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, "Establishing a sect and ascending to heaven is indeed a heroic feat, but it's a pity that it's nothing compared to the gods in the Danxia Realm."

Jiang Xinxin didn't believe Xiao Jingshan would sit idly by and watch her imminent return to the heavens and earth, but she also had no intention of exploring his secrets. She just wanted to get to know him clearly, so she said directly, "Xiao Xianjun, your attempt to destroy the Wuliang Monument is despised by many immortals. I came here today to ask for your advice."
