196: Eclipse Moon God of Life, once you come to the Immortal Palace you are a guest.
When everyone turned their attention to Yan Qingqing, she felt at a loss.
“I…I…”
After learning that Li Yan was an Immortal Reincarnation and seeing so many powerful individuals,
Yan Qingqing, who had grown up being doted on, felt inferior for the first time.
This Fellow Daoist Li’s Dao Companion, the weakest was an Ancient Dragon, and the strongest was a Scribe from White Jade Capital.
How could she, a mere female Cultivator, dare to aspire so high?
At this moment, Li Yan spoke.
“She is just an ordinary person, but within her body, the remnant soul of the Moonlit Sword Immortal is residing.”
Ember Immortal was shocked to hear this: “My Junior Sister? My Junior Sister’s remnant soul is in this young girl?”
“No wonder… no wonder Master, when you were being hunted, you still brought her out.”
“I knew she looked so much like Junior Sister.”
At this moment, Yan Qingqing completely did not understand what they were saying.
Whose remnant soul resided within her body?
Did Fellow Daoist Li protect her just because she was someone’s substitute?
This made Yan Qingqing feel a bit lost. So Fellow Daoist Li wasn't saving her, but rather the remnant soul within her...
Having been protected by her father and a group of uncles since childhood, Yan Qingqing had always lived a carefree life, always the center of attention.
Having grown up nourished by love and sweetness, she felt an unprecedented sense of loss after her father, Yan Poshan, Ascended.
Now, she had come to a strange place and had become someone else's substitute.
The disparity in identity was somewhat difficult for her to accept.
Sensing Yan Qingqing’s low spirits, Li Yan spoke to comfort her.
“Don’t overthink it. Being alive is better than anything.”
“We’ll slowly figure out a way to rescue your father, and everything will be alright.”
With that, Li Yan gently patted Yan Qingqing’s shoulder.
Yan Qingqing, who looked remarkably like a younger version of the Moonlit Sword Immortal, forced a smile.
“Fellow Daoist Li, I… I will try my best.”
Just as they were discussing, Purple Star Master approached Li Yan, interrupting them.
“Fellow Daoist, you can talk, but first, please unseal those Heavenly Soldiers and Generals who were accidentally injured by you.”
Purple Star Master pointed to a large group of frozen people, but Li Yan’s reaction was indifferent.
“I am very tired now and need to rest for a while. There’s no rush to unfreeze them.”
Purple Star Master raised an eyebrow: “Fellow Daoist, I have tolerated you time and again.”
“Yet you keep pushing your luck. Does Fellow Daoist not take our Old Heavenly Court seriously?”
Facing Purple Star Master’s strong attitude, Li Yan sneered and ignored him.
“Disciple, Qingqing, follow me into the Yuan Ye Immortal Abode.”
Li Yan waved his hand, directly taking them into the turtle shell, enjoying his leisure.
Facing Li Yan’s disregard, Purple Star Master’s slender eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes showed anger.
“How dare you ignore this Star Lord!”
Li Yan did not turn his head, merely saying: “This is the Gui Xu Realm Abyss. What can you do to me?”
Purple Star Master’s eyelids twitched wildly at Li Yan’s words, and he couldn’t utter a single sentence for a long time.
“This child… is lawless, too arrogant! Too presumptuous!”
Several surrounding Star Lords gathered around to persuade him: “Star Lord! Star Lord, do not be angry!”
“This person controls a Law we have never seen. Do not offend him.”
Everyone understood that being able to harm others within the Gui Xu Realm Abyss meant that the Law Li Yan controlled was incredibly absurd.
Now, Li Yan held the power of life and death within the Gui Xu Realm Abyss.
All the Immortals and Heavenly Soldiers and Generals could do nothing to him.
If he were provoked, this child might do something astonishing.
And back in the Immortal Abode within the turtle shell, Li Yan only needed to move his fingers to make the interior of the turtle shell materialize out of thin air.
Evil beasts like Yuan Ye could freely change their Physical Body.
For example, the Immortal Abode before them had a night-shining pearl hanging from its dome, illuminating the jade bricks so brightly they reflected people.
The left wall was inlaid with a spiritual spring, and living water flowed around a green jade table, on which a Pill Furnace was emitting white mist with a strange fragrance.
The prayer mats in the corner glowed softly, and beside them, Jade Slips were stacked, occasionally leaking streams of light from their gaps.
As long as Li Yan had a thought, the Immortal Abode could become whatever he wanted; everything was essentially constructed from Yuan Ye’s Physical Body.
For an evil beast of this level, it could create a table, a courtyard, or even a magnificent Forbidden City within its body.
The chair Li Yan was sitting on now looked like wood, but it was actually formed from Yuan Ye’s bones.
Including the tables and cushions within this Immortal Abode, they were all transformed from flesh and blood.
Everything looked unremarkable, no different from a normal Immortal Abode courtyard.
Li Yan’s thought moved at this moment, and the dark space above his head transformed into a clear blue sky.
Yuan Ye’s flesh and blood could even simulate the sky and the earth.
Within this turtle shell, it was as if it were a Small World, with the rotation of the sun and moon, and the changing of the four seasons.
Inside this Yuan Ye Immortal Abode, one would not feel any oppression; it was both safe and comfortable.
Li Yan looked at Yan Qingqing behind him, who looked like she had never seen the world: “Qingqing, choose freely. Just consider this place your home. Which room do you like?”
Yan Qingqing completely could not comprehend the world of Immortals. This little Cultivator from the Blood Cocoon Realm was already bewildered by this bizarre world.
“Fellow Daoist Li, I… I’ll just go with anything.”
Li Yan flicked his sleeve and strode into the courtyard: “I need to rest for a moment. You all wait here for now.”
Subsequently, the large door behind Li Yan automatically closed, and he sat cross-legged alone in the courtyard.
Recalling the prison break just now, and being chased by Eclipse Moon Scribe, it felt like a lifetime ago.
Li Yan exhaled a long breath of turbid Qi, and from his mouth, he spat out the Seven-Colored Golden Pill.
“If not for this Golden Core from Immortal Weng with One Eye, a thousand consecutive Space Rending Claws would have been too draining.”
“Especially that last instant teleportation over ten thousand miles, it almost drained my Dantian and Qi Sea.”
Looking at the Golden Core, which was more than half consumed, Li Yan’s mouth curved upwards: “Although this Golden Core has lost more than fifty percent, what remains is enough for me to continue my Breakthrough.”
However, Li Yan’s Physical Body had immunity to side effects, so there was no major problem.
But the mental exhaustion made him feel tired.
He needed a short rest to maintain his state of mind.
Sitting in this courtyard, listening to the sound of the stream, the simulated birdsong around him, and the sense of tranquility as a gentle breeze caressed his face under the blue sky and white clouds.
This Immortal Abode, exclusively his own, made him feel an unprecedented sense of security.
Ever since learning about White Jade Capital and being imprisoned in Forget Dust Hall, Li Yan had been constantly on edge.
It wasn't until he entered the Gui Xu Realm Abyss and repelled the mysterious Eclipse Moon Scribe that he finally relaxed.
Just as Li Yan was completely relaxing, he suddenly saw something.
“Hmm!?”
Looking down, he saw that a purple moon had been branded on the back of his hand at some point.
“This is? This is the Eclipse Moon Scribe’s Dao pattern!?”
The next moment, a dark purple mist suddenly appeared before him.
Eclipse Moon Scribe appeared out of thin air in front of Li Yan, placing a long sword across his neck.
Seeing this, Li Yan’s initial surprise slowly turned into a calm expression.
Li Yan acted uncharacteristically: “Since Scribe has come, you are a guest. Please come inside.”
