Chapter 495 Helping Others Subdue the Red Lotus Karmic Flame
With it, he could be confident that he would not repeat the same mistakes in this life.
He had already died once. In his previous life, no matter how hard he and Yingniang tried, they couldn't escape the persecution by Gong Changqing and the Ninth Princess.
The two men seemed to be divinely aided; no matter what he did, he couldn't kill them.
Despite all his precautions, Gong Changqing eventually seized the opportunity, framed him in various ways, and then joined forces with several major immortal sects to surround and kill him.
After his death, his soul lingered in the immortal realm for a period of time, where he learned that Yingniang had gone mad from her cultivation and had been framed as a demon by the Ninth Princess, and was also killed by the major immortal sects.
Such a ridiculous and obvious slander, Xuan Yuan Jinmo did not believe that others could not see through it.
I don't know where the Ninth Princess and her companions get their charm. Wherever they go, powerful figures constantly step forward to serve them.
Unfortunately, he was reborn too late this time. When he woke up, he had just been banished to the Yellow Sand Sea by his second brother.
When he first entered the desert in his previous life, it might have been a torment for him, but this time, he had to thank his second brother. Without him, he might never have been able to find his way into the desert in this lifetime.
He had visited the altar before and seen that wisp of fire.
But at the time, he was blind and thought it was just an ordinary flame.
So instead of trying to refine it, they were frightened away by the great demon above.
It wasn't until he went to the celestial realm that he realized his mistake. It turned out that it was one of the four legendary divine lotuses, the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.
This thing is so rare that it's only seen once every billion years in the Immortal Realm. Currently, there is only one Pure World Green Lotus in the entire Immortal Realm, located in the Buddhist Domain.
Unexpectedly, there was one hidden in the vast desert.
Indeed, although the altar was spotless, the totems and engravings on it were not even recorded in ancient books, indicating that it must have existed for countless long years.
What kind of ordinary flame can burn for so long without going out?
Tsk! Ignorance can really be a disaster.
Gong Changqing, Xuanyuan Jinxia, you had better pray that I die here in this lifetime, otherwise you will be annihilated and never reincarnated.
Oh, right, in this life he seems to have something called a system in his mind.
Because he didn't know where it came from, he pretended not to know it existed.
Even if he couldn't sense any malice from it, having been given a second chance at life, Xuan Yuan Jinmo wouldn't easily trust anyone again until he fully understood where he came from.
Especially something that can invade his consciousness without warning.
Before he could think, he was about to be hit by a fireball, and he was completely exhausted. Just as he was about to close his eyes in resentment, the fireball inexplicably vanished before his eyes.
A chill ran through me, and I looked up in disbelief.
Not far away, an ice-blue sphere appeared out of nowhere and was wreaking havoc on the fiery red world in front of them with devastating force.
Before long, the rain-like fireballs changed direction and began to attack the blue ice bead.
The Ice Soul Pearl accepted all fireballs without hesitation, and after spinning rapidly a few times, it suddenly released wave after wave of immense light.
Wherever the beam of light passed, the fireballs were instantly extinguished without a trace, like sparks being swept away by a flash flood.
Knowing that the crisis had temporarily passed, Xuan Yuan Jinmo realized that this was not the Fire Realm, but his sea of consciousness.
No wonder they couldn't escape no matter how hard they ran.
The Red Lotus Karmic Fire could even affect his mind; no wonder the immortals would frantically search for him whenever they heard even the slightest hint of it.
As the fireballs disappeared, the earth returned to its original lush greenery and vibrant colors. This was the scene in Xuan Yuan Jinmo's mind before his death.
Although he faced many hardships along the way, with every step fraught with thorns, he was determined to restore clarity to the world he had lived in.
So no matter how bitter or difficult things got, his inner world was never dark.
Even if he was killed by the various immortal sects he had helped in his previous life, it was only because he misjudged people and was less skilled than them.
There's nothing to dwell on; if you're given a second chance, you can start all over again.
A fiery red lotus slowly appeared, spinning as it engaged in its final battle with the Ice Soul Pearl.
The flower and the bead collided violently in the air, and the aftershocks almost made Xuan Yuan Jinmo lose his footing.
However, after their clash ended, Xuan Yuan Jinmo smiled. The Red Lotus Karmic Fire was intact, but the Blue Bead was also undamaged.
The fire lotus seemed unconvinced and mustered its strength to collide with the bead again. After realizing that neither could really defeat the other, the two obediently found a quiet place to settle down.
Whether it was Xuan Yuan Jin Mo's imagination or not, the blue bead seemed to have the upper hand, and after calming down, it spun a few more times, as if it were a provocation to the fire lotus.
The difference is that the Crimson Lotus is a permanent spiritual object, while the Ice Soul Pearl is a consumable item that will eventually run out of energy.
Unsure how long the blue bead could last, Xuan Yuan Jinmo struck while the iron was hot, forcing out a drop of his essence blood and throwing it at the fire lotus.
Huo Lian was immediately enraged and unleashed her power once more.
Ice Soul Pearl immediately rushed over, its body radiating blue light, as if it wanted to perish together with the opponent.
After a moment's hesitation, Huo Lian finally had to give in, and her aura gradually weakened.
Faced with this reckless fighting style, it had no choice but to perish together with an inanimate object; it wasn't stupid enough to do that.
They had no choice but to stay there obediently and wait to form a contract with a human.
Damn it, what is the origin of this ice bead? It's the Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire, how could the opponent fight it to a draw?
It's also my fault for only thinking about smelling that old monster's stinky feet and neglecting my cultivation. I'm still a baby now.
Let's wait a few more years and see how it destroys this piece of junk.
Forget it, the old monster hasn't come looking for it yet, which means it doesn't care about it at all. It's been around the altar for tens of millions of years, and it's long been tired of it.
If you are unkind, I will be unjust; if you don't want me, then I'll go out and see the world with someone else.
When the contract was generated, Xuanyuan Jinmo sensed a sense of sorrow emanating from the Fire Lotus.
Fire Lotus: How can I not be sad? Before I even developed any intelligence, I went and fawned over that old monster.
As a result, they refused to accept me at all.
They say they were destined to be apart and will each go their own way in the future.
That old monster is truly powerful; he seems to have all the secrets of heaven in his grasp, as if there is nothing he cannot predict.
Three million years ago, the old monster said that a turning point would come after three million years. Two days ago was exactly three million years ago. Could it be that this human race is the path I will take in the future?
Because of this relationship, Huo Lian has been hesitating until now and hasn't dared to actually kill this person.
But that old thing didn't say that the destined person would use an ice bead to deal with it, did it? It almost perished together with the Ice Soul Bead just now.
I never thought you'd miscalculate, you old man!
After subduing the Fire Lotus, the Ice Soul Pearl returned to its original position, showing no intention of leaving, which pleased Xuan Yuan Jinmo.
Its ability to withstand the Red Lotus Karmic Fire indicates that it is also a rare and precious treasure.
Guessing that this might be something created by that system, Xuan Yuan Jinmo quickly opened his eyes, and when he saw a group of people standing in front of him, his eyes narrowed suddenly.
He instinctively drew his weapon and leaped several feet away, but without revealing any killing intent, he politely cupped his hands and asked, "What advice do you fellow Daoists have for me?"
