Chapter 592: The torch of the other shore
In the next few days, Li An’an and Chu Weiwei would always enter the distant space and time of the Southern Song dynasty in their dreams.
Everything in their dreams would flow like bubbles.
They clearly did not enter this dream world during the day.
However, when they entered at night, they would be shocked to discover that time was quietly passing by.
Moreover, their dreams were a continuation of the previous dreams they had.
Thus, in just a few days, a year had passed in the dream world.
The two women, whose alias were Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing, had successfully used their supernatural powers to easily establish a top-down organization in Lin’an City.
Under the name of various guilds, the entire Lin’an society had fallen into the control of the two women in every aspect.
Grain, cloth, salt, ceramics…
Almost everything that was sold on the market was controlled by the two women.
A monopoly organization that would only appear in the future slowly rose up in the Southern Song dynasty.
This naturally attracted the attention of all parties.
The strength of transcendent beings in this world also started to surface.
Both Buddhism and Taoism started to appear.
At first, they were just lackeys.
The priests and masters, who were at most as strong as captains, wanted to catch demons.
In the end, they were hung on the city wall by the local ruffians and hooligans of Lin’an before they could even meet the two girls.
Therefore, the attention of the Buddhist and Taoist schools was finally attracted over.
The shadows of mighty figures began to appear.
In the sky above Lin’an City, above the clouds, the golden arhat looked down at the city in the mortal world.
Just one glance was enough to make this arhat’s eyes bleed.
“There are evildoers, no wonder it’s strange!” the arhat quickly closed his eyes. “We have to report this to Mount Numinous and the venerable!”
Before he could do anything, he was stopped by someone.
“The dragon slayer arhat, hold on!”
After a burst of immortal music, a kind-looking immortal appeared.
It was the Immortal of South Pole, who was holding a deer cane.
Although the dragon slayer arhat had become blind, he could recognize this great immortal of the Heavenly Court through his perception.
The arhat quickly put his palms together and bowed, “What does the immortal mean by that?”
The Immortal of South Pole chuckled and said, “Dragon slayer arhat, don’t worry. I have already informed the venerable about this!”
“Arhat, just wait and see!”
The dragon slayer arhat did not quite understand.
The main thing was, how could the Immortal of South Pole communicate directly with the venerable?
One had to know that although this Immortal of South Pole was highly respected in the Heavenly Court, his status wasn’t high.
And the venerable was the lord of Mount Numinous, the western Buddha.
The difference in status between the two was huge, let alone directly communicating.
Perhaps they had not even met a few times?
But… after thinking about it, the dragon slayer arhat felt that there was no need for the Immortal of South Pole to lie to him, so he cupped his fists and said, “Since the Immortal of South Pole had informed the venerable, then I will follow your wishes!”
The kind-looking Immortal of South Pole smiled and bid farewell to the dragon slayer arhat.
Then, he lowered his head and looked down at Lin’an.
“Strange!” he murmured.
Recently, he kept having dreams.
In his dream, even though he was the Immortal of South Pole, he was also Immortal King Yuqing, the Emperor of Longevity in the South Pole, one of the four imperial guards, and the true successor of the Yuanshi dynasty.
His status was unspeakable, and his cultivation was unfathomable.
It wasn’t just the dream world.
After waking up, he would often unintentionally use some of the supernatural powers from the dream world.
He would even reveal his dream body.
It seemed real and at the same time, it feels fake.
He couldn’t distinguish it clearly.
Just like at this moment, he gently reached out and plucked a longevity peach from the void.
The longevity peach was bright and beautiful.
And his appearance was becoming younger.
His own voice was faintly lingering in his ears.
“Wake up!”
“Wake up!”
The Immortal of South Pole raised his head and saw a figure looking at him in the sky above his head.
“Excellent! Excellent!” that person cupped his hands and praised.
“I dream of butterflies, butterflies dream of me!”
“Primitive true technique, the Great Dao of nature!”
Immortal of South Pole suddenly woke up.
He finally understood.
Hence, he smiled and cupped his hands towards the figure, “I see! I see!”
The two shadows overlapped.
Thus, in the middle of the day, the South Pole’s forever bright star shone with endless light.
At this moment, countless powerful figures in this world opened their eyes.
“Amitabha!” the spirit mountain said in admiration. “Congratulations, fellow immortal Daoist, for realizing your own self!”
In the Old Lord’s Temple, the Old Lord, who was refining pills, also stopped. He put his palms together and praised, “Senior brother Yuqing has good karma!”
“He has received a great disciple!”
“Longevity nephew has finally set foot on the path to the other shore!”
There was light on the other shore, illuminating all directions.
If one could see the light, one could set foot on this path.
Unfortunately…
Being able to see the light itself was a sieve.
No matter how talented one was, very few people could do this.
Although the Old Lord had many disciples, only a few people could step onto this path together with him.
Furthermore, most of them were like the Emperor of Longevity, who could only find one or two other shore bodies.
They were far inferior to junior brother Tong Tian’s disciple Duo Bao.
Duo Bao shone throughout the ages, and his light was no less than that of his teacher.
Thinking of this, the Old Lord calculated with his fingers and he smiled.
“So that’s how it is!”
“So it’s fellow Daoist Wu Tian’s Karma!”
“This is how karma works!”
The Emperor of Longevity gave him a peach as a gift when he traveled to the west.
Therefore, fellow Daoist Wu Tian’s true body reflected time and space, guiding the Emperor of Longevity and lighting up the world.
The Old Lord lowered his head and looked at the human world.
He smiled again
“This is how karma works, excellent!”
The two women sitting in Lin’an City.
One was a white snake, and the other was a green snake.
However, their true bodies reflected time and space like torches.
One could feel the entanglement of karma just by looking at them.
Not only that, but the Old Lord also saw a figure.
A majestic figure hung upside down and shone in all directions.
He no longer needed a torch, much less an anchor.
The Old Lord looked on and couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
Thereupon, he pinched his fingers and called his disciple Xuan Du over. He said to him, “Go down to the lower realm and ask the old mother of Mount Li to come up to the upper realm to meet me!”
“Yes!” Xuan Du accepted the order and left.
The old mother of Mount Li had yet to come to her senses in this realm.
However, the Old Lord knew where she was.
She was the eldest disciple of the Nuwa Palace. She was the mount that Saint Nuwa rode when she was mending the heavens, and she was transformed by the saint’s virtue.
It just so happened that the white and green snakes had karma with the old mother of Mount Li.
This was the place where she could write.
…
When Li An’an and Chu Weiwei reappeared in their dreams…
The two women had a sudden inspiration.
“The immortals of this world have finally noticed us?” Li An’an sighed.
Chu Weiwei asked, “Captain, how should we deal with them?”
“There’s no rush!” Li An’an said, “Let’s wait and see!”
Since the immortals and Buddhas didn’t come to find them to punish them.
It meant that they were afraid or had other plans.
Compared to this matter, Li An’an was more concerned about another matter.
“Let’s go and see how Ping’an is doing in this world!” she said cheerfully.
Ever since she discovered that there was another “Ling Ping’an” in this dream.
Moreover, this Ling Ping’an looked silly. Up until now, he had thought that he was just Xu Xuan, an apprentice of a pharmacy. His mind was filled with feudal and pedantic thoughts which made Li An’an delighted.
Every time she entered the dream, she would tease him.
