Chapter 501: Divine Luck
Six months later, Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue sat in the sitting room of the ancient palace.
Jiang Yue held a wine gourd in his hand while Yu Nianzhen held an information jade tablet.
"Bing Lan is in the Endless Ice World mountain." Yu Nianzhen said.
"I guess it makes sense." Jiang Yue said and sighed.
The Endless Ice world was a high-grade world.
Since Bing Lan had an ice-related origin and physique, it was not unexpected that she wanted to defect to the Endless Ice world.
"What’s her plan?"
"From the information, she often meets with the mountain master and several high-ranking cultivators in the Endless Ice Mountain. However, we don’t know what they are up to."
"We can’t do anything to her unless she leaves the mountain." Jiang Yue said with a frown on his face.
"True." Yu Nianzhen nodded and fell into thought.
A moment later, he took out his communication jade and messaged Liu Sen.
"Sooner or later, she will have to leave the mountain to cross her first tribulation. I have asked fellow Daoist Liu to send several ants. As soon as Bing Lan appears, we will know right away." Yu Nianzhen said.
"That’s the only thing we can do."
"I have also messaged Master. He will see the communication when he leaves seclusion."
"What about Jiang Xing?"
Hearing this, Yu Nianzhen shook his head.
"There is nothing yet but fellow Daoist He will continue looking for information."
"Azhen, let’s enter the tribulation grounds." Jiang Yue said.
"Mmmm." Yu Nianzhen nodded and continued.
"Now that everything is settled, we can enter the tribulation grounds at any time."
"The tribulations are heart tribulations. We have to adjust our minds first."
"Good but first..." Yu Nianzhen winked and pushed his lover on the sofa.
Six months later, the two came out of their ancient palace and walked to the entrance of the tribulation grounds.
"We are in the first level of the reincarnation realm. We need to enter the first door." Jiang Yue said and pointed at a stone ground.
The entrance to the tribulation grounds was nine stone doors.
Each door corresponded to a cultivation level and since the two were in the first level of the reincarnation realm, they could only enter the first door.
"XiaoYue, be careful after you go in." Yu Nianzhen warned with a solemn look on his face.
"Don’t worry, I won’t be careless. You also have to be careful."
"Good." Yu Nianzhen nodded.
After that, they both took out their mountain identity jades and placed them on the first door.
.....
Ten kilometres from the entrance of the tribulation grounds, a group of five sat together.
Among the five, there were three men and two women.
"Mountain master Tian, they have appeared." A male cultivator said in an excited voice.
Tian Shishi was the mountain master of the Spirit Eye World Mountain.
Three days before, her group of five set up camp near the tribulation grounds.
However, none of the five entered the grounds or did anything to draw attention.
Instead, they sat together and watched the entrance, as if waiting for something.
"As expected." Tian Shishi said and a mysterious light flashed in her eyes.
"Should we inform the other mountain masters?" A male cultivation asked.
Hearing this, Tian Shishi turned and looked at the person.
"Why do you want to inform them?" She asked.
"Our Spirit Eye Mountain is part of the twelve top-grade worlds. Didn’t we agree to act together?" The male cultivator asked.
"Junior Song, when did our mountain master agree to such a thing?" One of the female cultivators asked.
"This..." The so-called Junior Song hesitated.
When he thought about it, the mountain master had only listened but never agreed to cooperate with the other mountain masters.
From beginning to end, mountain master Tian cautioned against provoking the Cangxing mountain master and deputy mountain master.
"Junior Song, our people are different from other cultivators. Other cultivators can feel but not easily understand the great dao. Unlike them, we instinctively understand the great dao. Do you think it’s a good idea to go against the Cangxing mountain?"
Hearing this, Junior Song shivered in fear.
At first, he only considered the strength of the Cangxing mountain.
In the Reincarnation world, the Cangxing mountain was the weakest.
As a result, Junior Song didn’t take the Cangxing world seriously and felt it wasn’t a big deal to unite with other worlds to deal with the mountain master and other powerful people from the Cangxing mountain.
However, now that he thought about it with a clear head, he couldn’t help but worry.
"There is something different about the Cangxing mountain master and deputy mountain master." He muttered and then turned to Tian Shishi.
"Mountain master Tian, can you see it?"
Hearing the question, Tian Shishi frowned and shook her head.
She was the most powerful celestial master in the Reincarnation world.
When she first saw Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue, she felt they were somehow different from everyone else.
However, she couldn’t see through their uniqueness.
Because of this, Tian Shishi retreated, planning to do an in-depth divination.
Unfortunately, her efforts were in vain.
When she tried to delve into the mystery of Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue, she suffered a backlash and took many years to recover.
Since the first time, Tian Shishi had tried two more times and the backlash got worse with each attempt.
After the last attempt, Tian Shishi knew she couldn’t try again.
If she did, she had a feeling the heavens would no longer spare her.
"The Cangxing mountain master and the deputy mountain master are different but..." Tian Shishi started but stopped midway.
"But?" One of the other celestial cultivators asked.
"I don’t know why but I feel they are more in line with the way of heaven than everyone else."
"How is that possible? They are only in the first level of the reincarnation realm."
"Mountain master, Junior Song is right. The Cangxing mountain master and deputy mountain master are powerful but they can’t compare with the mountain masters of the top-grade worlds."
"Mountain master Tian is the most gifted celestial master in the Reincarnation world. No one is more in line with the way of heaven than our Spirit Eye Mountain master."
Hearing this, Tian Shishi sighed.
In all honesty, she was also at a loss.
As someone who could see destiny and commune with the way of heaven, she always did her best to follow the great dao.
However, she couldn’t shake the feeling that Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue were closer to the Great Dao than she was.
"All of you spectated the challenge event. Did you notice something?" Tian Shishi suddenly asked and her eyes narrowed into slits.
"I noticed it." One of the male cultivators said with a solemn look in his eyes.
"Celestial master Li, fellow Daoist Yang, fellow Daoist Xuan, fellow Daoist Wei, fellow Daoist Lin, fellow Daoist Meng, fellow Daoist Zhu, and several others have purple luck." The person continued.
"It’s auspicious for a child of luck to appear in a world. Unexpectedly, the Cangxing world has so many at once. Most importantly..."
"You are right. It’s already very strange for so many children of luck to appear at once but the problem still lies with the mountain master and deputy mountain master." Tian Shishi said and took a deep breath before she continued.
"If I am not mistaken, the mountain master and deputy mountain master have divine luck."
"Divine luck? How can this be?" Someone asked and the others nodded in agreement.
Although children of luck were rare, they could still be seen once in a while.
In the current Reincarnation world, there were at least one hundred children of luck.
However, a child of divine luck was extremely rare.
In fact, such a cultivator hadn’t appeared for millions of years and the Spirit Eye cultivators only knew about them from ancient records.
"Mountain master Tian, I don’t agree with your speculation." One of the female cultivators said with a solemn expression.
"Why don’t you agree?" Tian Shishi asked.
"It’s possible for multiple children of luck to exist. However, there can’t be more than one child of divine luck." The female explained and the others quickly agreed.
"Mountain master Yu and deputy mountain master Jiang are soul-bound Taoist companions. It’s not impossible for them to be children of divine luck."
"Mountain master Tian, the appearance of a child of divine luck initiates a turning point in the fate of a realm." Someone reminded.
"I am aware of this." Tian Shishi said and frowned.
"I agree with mountain master Tian." Another said and quickly explained.
"As we all know, a Taoist name not only symbolises a cultivator’s personality and potential but also the expectation of the way of heaven. Both mountain master Yu and deputy mountain master Jiang have extraordinary Taoist titles.
"Mountain master Yu is titled the Supreme Sword God and the deputy mountain master is titled the Lord of Infinite Illusions."
