Chapter 753: Chapter 752: The Second Mahayana Realm
After some jesting, Bai Hongtu got to understand the two characters of Jiang Li.
One was capricious, similar to who he was before he became the Acting Human Emperor.
The other was unusually domineering, undoubtedly a person who had killed many.
“Never would’ve thought that in your world, Yu Yin, you and I are close friends.”
In the layman’s world, Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin could be called friends, but they were far from being close.
This was due to the relationship between the layman and Yu Yin. Who would want to see their confidant entertaining another man?
...
“That’s wonderful, your Kyushu is different from ours.” Bai Hongtu was incredibly envious of Jiang Li’s world.
“You’ve also had it tough. I never thought it’d be so hard to be the Human Emperor.”
“The Bai Hongtu I know always grumbles about wanting to be the Human Emperor. I wonder how he would feel if he were to encounter the situation you’re in now?”
Bai Hongtu gave a bitter smile: “He’d probably regret it. Wishing to do something but unable, in need of power everywhere but unable to muster enough.”
Jiang Li noted that Bai Hongtu had not yet become an immortal, he was still at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.
The immortals in Kyushu were only Changcun Xianweng and Xumi Lafo, which indicated that the layman had not publicly disclosed the method to acquire the power of virtue.
Jiang Li speculated that perhaps the layman had the same considerations as himself and did not dare to spread this method to avoid a second Xumi Lafo from happening.
“Has this Kyushu not made contact with the Ten Thousand Realms?” Jiang Li had noticed earlier that in the world of the Itinerant Emperor, Kyushu had many technological advances.
But in the layman’s world, there was no sign of this.
This indicated that the Kyushu world had not yet established contact with other worlds.
Bai Hongtu shook his head blankly, clueless about what Jiang Li meant – establish contacts? He didn’t even know the location of other worlds, how could he establish contacts?
“Apart from the Eight Desolate World, I haven’t seen any other worlds. But the layman, he’s been making strange advancements from quite an early on, for reasons beyond me.”
“For instance, at the Golden Core Stage, his martial arts prowess was extremely refined, surpassing those of the Martial Emperor Dynasty.”
Jiang Li knew, this was the Ring Universe of brothers Bu Jing and Bu Dong.
“At the Nascent Soul Stage, he mastered many demon techniques.”
This was the beast-controlling Lingxi World.
“At the Divinity Transformation Stage, he was extremely adept at the use of soul power and faith power.”
This was the Eira World where gods and demon kings coexisted.
“Just recently, I discovered tech gadgets like mobile phones and computers in his harem.”
This was the Qin’s Heart World formed after two worlds collided, Jiang Li remembered the task given by the system in the Qin’s Heart World was to sell the tech products of Qin’s Heart to Kyushu.
“I’ve actually been able to guess that he probably has treasures similar to the Brahma’s Tower, which allows him to shuttle through other worlds, gaining benefits and self-improvement.”
“But since he doesn’t say, and I don’t want to ask, doesn’t everyone have secrets?”
“Moreover honestly speaking, even if we were to allow Kyushu to communicate with other worlds now, there would be difficulties. Not because of technical issues, but because currently, many within Kyushu disagree with how the Imperial Palace is dealing with the Eight Desolate issue. If Kyushu could actually go to other worlds, who knows what chaos could erupt.”
Bai Hongtu’s worries were not unfounded. The people of Kyushu dared to practice demon arts right under the Human Emperor Palace’s nose, if they really were to go to other worlds, they would cause trouble.
Moreover, Kyushu had only one Earth Immortal and several at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. Compared to other individual worlds, it was dominant but if several worlds joined together, Kyushu would lose control.
“In the end, it’s because I am too weak and have not managed to become an immortal.” Bai Hongtu sighed, having ideals and pursuits is good, but the prerequisite to realising these ideals and pursuits is having enough power.
Take the three Jiang Lis as an example, they had vast differences in personality which resulted in their entire worlds changing, all due to the power they possessed.
If the three of them were just ordinary people, what difference would their personalities make to the world?
“Becoming immortal is difficult, but it’s not hard to get you to Mahayana Realm.” Jiang Li smiled.
“There really is a way to ascend to the Mahayana Realm?!” Bai Hongtu shot up in surprise, disbelievingly staring at Jiang Li, scared that his next sentence would be ‘I’m just joking’.
Being able to ascend to the Mahayana Realm would solve many problems and greatly alleviate the pressure built up in his heart.
“Don’t be impatient, I’ll explain things to you clearly.”
Jiang Li explained the nine major rules.
“In other words, the most deadly rule now is the rule of destruction, manifested as a black tidal wave that devours everything. To resist this black tide, we need to establish order.”
“I not only need to establish order in Jiuzhou, but also in the myriad heavens and worlds?” Bai Hongtu was surprised, this burden was not light.
“Don’t worry, you’re not alone in this. You have the aid of the Grand Primordial Immortal from the Underworld. As for help from the Immortal Realm, whether it is one or two people, that is uncertain.”
“Don’t feel pressured, the Bai Hongtu I know has the capacity to do this. I believe that you can too.” Jiang Li didn’t comfort Bai Hongtu, he truly believed this.
The Primordial Emperor could also attest to this, Bai Hongtu’s abilities were beyond doubt.
“Alright, I’ll do it!” Bai Hongtu nodded fiercely. He knew that in order to establish order, many people would be killed, and he would be labeled a butcher.
The moment he nodded, he was ready to take on all consequences.
“I can wield the sword and kill.”
The Primordial Emperor’s killing was not to help Bai Hongtu, but because he was disgusted with some of the actions of the cultivators in Jiuzhou, which angered him.
In his world, in order to establish order, many people were killed. The Primordial Emperor didn’t mind killing these people again.
Bai Hongtu shook his head: “Your Majesty, I appreciate your intentions, but this is ultimately my world. I can do the killing, there’s no need to soil your hands.”
Bai Hongtu’s way of speaking to the Primordial Emperor was drastically different from when he spoke to Jiang Li.
“Did Idler tell you about the method to reach the Mahayana Realm?”
Bai Hongtu’s expression was strange: “He said it many times, but no one understood. He always emphasized that energy is not conserved and that one should use infinite energy to breakthrough realms.”
Jiang Li: “…”
It was clearly seen that the Idler was trying hard to enhance the strength of his friends and family, to no avail.
Bai Hongtu felt that the Idler was not lying, but he truly didn’t understand.
“Cough cough, what the Idler said is correct, but this is only the superficial method to break through to the Mahayana Realm, the actual method is….”
Jiang Li revealed the real method to breakthrough to the Mahayana Realm.
Bai Hongtu’s face became even stranger.
“Believe that energy isn’t conserved, to make energy not conserved? How on earth did you three Jiang Li’s come up with this method?”
Jiang Li was speechless.
“However, I believe you.” Bai Hongtu’s eyes were clear, choosing to believe in Jiang Li’s words.
He tried to overthrow his previous understanding and believe that energy is not conserved.
“Power of faith, come!”

Bai Hongtu gestured, and the power of faith from the Earth Pulse blessed him, the acting Human Emperor.
He stepped down from the emperor’s throne, with heavy footing, slowly walking out of the hall.
This immense pressure, centered around the Imperial Palace, spread across all of Jiuzhou, from commoners to immortals, all sensing this aura.
This aura was gentle and pleasing, like a spring breeze, giving people hope, as if the future would be better, something to look forward to.
Those with dark hearts felt terrified, but couldn’t say why, as if calamity was imminent, that they must pay for their sins.
Bai Hongtu stared straight ahead, his posture upright, he walked out of the hall, out of the corridor, as if carrying the future of all lives on his shoulders, the weight immeasurable, each step harder than the last.
The Human Emperor Palace Guards noted the Hall Master’s unusual state, but dared not approach him. Upon seeing Bai Hongtu’s current appearance, they felt awe.
With each step forward, Bai Hongtu’s momentum gradually increased, eventually surpassing the levels of mortals, reaching a brand new realm.
Gradually, his body began to float upward, arriving above the Imperial Palace.
Bai Hongtu savored this previously yearned for power, bowed solemnly to Jiang Li and the Primordial Emperor below him, and slowly said: “Thank you both for passing down the teachings. From today onward, I am the second Mahayana Stage cultivator.”
He had reached the Mahayana Realm.
