The Reversal System: Only for the Elite at the Mahayana Stage

Chapter 49 – Answer



Considering the advanced age of the Eternal Celestial, Jiang Li decided to phrase his question more delicately.

"The Red Dust Fairy has been resurrected, what do you think?"

The Eternal Celestial's blood surged, and he stood up abruptly. He used several celestial-level purification spells on himself, straightened his back, and began to groom himself in front of a bronze mirror, changing into his celestial robes.

Goddess Jing Xin felt a slight dizziness, and before she knew it, the old farmer tending the fields had transformed into an elderly man with a graceful demeanor.

Without uttering another word, the Eternal Celestial transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the World of Mortals Pure Land.

Before he could fly out of the cave, Jiang Li grabbed his ankle and pulled him back.

"Let me go, let me go, don't stop me from pursuing love!" The Eternal Celestial struggled fiercely, but Jiang Li's grip was unyielding.

"Can you even call that love? I'm embarrassed for you," Jiang Li scoffed.

When the Red Dust Fairy first descended to the mortal world, she caused quite a commotion. The Eternal Celestial, upon seeing her, fell to his knees on the spot, declaring that he had found love and would worship the Red Dust Fairy for the rest of his life.

Only after calming down did he say that the Red Dust Fairy was the embodiment of the "beauty" of the Heavenly Dao.

He was too embarrassed to mention this in front of Goddess Jing Xin.

"Let me go, you're bullying an old man!"

Goddess Jing Xin watched this scene in astonishment, not because of the Eternal Celestial's loss of composure, but because Jiang Li could easily subdue a genuine celestial being!

After a while, the Eternal Celestial finally calmed down.

"You see the charm of the Red Dust Fairy, even a celestial being can't resist," Jiang Li said to Goddess Jing Xin.

The example before her was quite convincing.

She had never seen the madness of Dream Jiang Emperor and the others, and she was not clear about the reasons for Xuan Ai Dao Maiden's coup.

This was the first time Goddess Jing Xin had seen someone go crazy because of the Red Dust Fairy, and it was a celestial being.

"So, the Red Dust Fairy really has been resurrected?" The Eternal Celestial knew that Jiang Li wouldn't joke about such a matter, but he couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Li and Goddess Jing Xin took turns explaining the whole story to the Eternal Celestial. After pondering for a moment, the Eternal Celestial said, "It seems that a new soul has been born in a physical being!"

"This has happened in the celestial realm. After a celestial being dies, if their celestial power remains within their body and does not dissipate, and the body does not decay, over time, it is possible for a new consciousness to emerge. This consciousness will not have the original body's memories and will become a completely new existence. This situation is most likely to occur in celestial beings who have achieved immortality through body cultivation."

"Didn't you propose the theory of new soul birth? Physical beings giving birth to souls fall into this category. Whether it's spiritual power or celestial power, in the end, they will all lead to the birth of a new soul."

"Why is she always sleeping then?"

"It's a psychological issue. Newly born souls know nothing about themselves or the world, and yet they possess immense power. They feel lost and scared, and they like to use sleep as a way to escape."

"Didn't you say that after you told the Red Dust Fairy some things about herself, her sleeping time gradually decreased? This is the process of gradually accepting herself."

The Eternal Celestial, who had spent tens of thousands of years in the celestial realm and had seen and experienced a lot, was able to make a reasonable guess after listening to the explanation, and was able to solve Jiang Li's doubts with just a few words.

Seeing the eager look on the Eternal Celestial's face, Jiang Li warned, "Don't you dare sneak off to the World of Mortals Pure Land while the Red Dust Fairy has just been born."

"How could I! Am I that kind of person!" The Eternal Celestial felt that Jiang Li was belittling his character, so he turned his head away, not daring to look at him.

How did this kid see through his thoughts so easily?

"I'm not joking with you. What should we do about the Red Dust Fairy? It's fine if she stays in the World of Mortals Pure Land, but what if she wants to leave? Should we let her go or not? I still have no idea. Only a few people know about her situation now, so don't cause any trouble!"

Seeing Jiang Li's serious expression, the Eternal Celestial knew he wasn't joking. The fact that he was told about the resurrection of the Red Dust Fairy was a sign of trust. As an elder, he certainly couldn't betray the trust of his junior.

"Alright, I understand."

Seeing the solemn promise of the Eternal Celestial, Jiang Li finally relaxed, "There's one more thing."

Jiang Li then told the Eternal Celestial about the black-robed man spreading the demonic path and laying out his plans three hundred and eighty years in advance.

A quick look at "pawread dot com" will leave you more fulfilled.

It had been over two months since Jiang Yixing practiced the demonic path, and Jiang Yixing had already been executed. As Jiang Li's cousin and the Jiang Peoples Emperor, Jiang Li personally sent Jiang Yixing to prison. The eye-catching information had long been spread throughout Jiuzhou, causing a huge uproar.

Some people thought that Jiang Li was righteous in exterminating his kin and supported him. Some thought that Jiang Li should have executed Jiang Yixing as soon as he discovered that he was practicing the demonic path, without going through the legal process. Others thought that Jiang Li was inhumane for sending his own brother to prison.

However, no one doubted that Jiang Li was also practicing the demonic path.

The most direct impact of this incident was that the speed at which the bronze cauldron in the Peoples Emperor's Palace collected faith power slowed down slightly.

However, the Eternal Celestial, who had been living in Daozong for many years, and Goddess Jing Xin, who had just left the mountain, were both unaware of this.

"Why was this black-robed man able to lay out his plans in advance? If I weren't so powerful that I didn't need the power of faith, his scheme might have succeeded."

Now, Jiang Li didn't think it was a coincidence that someone had spread the demonic path to Jiang Yixing. To be able to elevate Jiang Yixing from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Golden Elixir stage with a single instruction, at least a Divine Transformation stage was required. At that time, Jiang Yixing was of average talent and had no power. Who would have the leisure to spread the demonic path to him?

He believed that this was a conspiracy against him, or rather, against the Peoples Emperor!

The Eternal Celestial stroked his beard in silence. After a while, he slowly said, "Either someone has seen your future through the Dao of Time, or someone is proficient in the art of fate or aura reading, and has seen that you are destined for the position of Peoples Emperor, or has seen that you possess the aura of the Peoples Emperor."@@novelbin@@

The Dao of Time was not exclusive to the Great Zhou royal family. Perhaps some hidden cultivator had mastered the Dao of Time.

"Fate art? Aura reading?" Jiang Li was somewhat unfamiliar with these terms.

"It's normal that you don't know. The art of fate emphasizes destiny. Things that are destined for you will eventually come to you, and things that are not destined for you will remain elusive no matter what you do. Aura reading believes that everyone has an aura above their head. The color of the aura varies, and the achievements one can attain also vary.""These are all long-lost cultivation methods. It's possible that some broken temple or Taoist temple might have left behind cultivation methods, which were accidentally obtained by someone."

Although he had a clue, Jiang Li didn't know where to start searching.

"Why would anyone want to undermine the faith in the Peoples Emperor?" Goddess Jing Xin was puzzled.

Would the weakening of the Peoples Emperor benefit the man in black? Then who would stand against the extraterrestrial demons?

This was a simple truth, but both Jiang Li and the Eternal Celestial had overlooked it. It was only when Goddess Jing Xin unintentionally reminded them that they came to their senses.

They looked at each other, confirming the answer in their hearts.

The weakening of the Peoples Emperor would only benefit the extraterrestrial demons!

There was a traitor in Jiuzhou!

It was even possible that an extraterrestrial demon had secretly infiltrated Jiuzhou!
