Chapter 222: Chapter 202: The Great Tang Accountant, First Battle of the Donghua Alliance.

Kui Dragon?

This is the new Emperor’s Four Treasures. Judging by its appearance, it should be the yellow jade. Who would have thought that the yellow jade would be a Kui Dragon?

The entire earth trembled with the rhythm of the Kui Dragon’s movements. Wind and thunder roared, lightning blazed brilliantly.

Boom.

Lightning struck directly down. Song Lin reacted swiftly, his figure turning into a gust of wind to evade the strike zone.

Before Song Lin could catch his breath, two mountains came crashing down.

Boom.

The peaks pressed heavily on Song Lin.

Crack-crack.

The mountains split in two, and Song Lin’s figure burst out from within.

"Not bad."

Xing Hepu praised him twice and suddenly noticed a golden light emanating from the center of Song Lin’s forehead.

Within the golden light, a faint pattern could be seen, exuding the aura of the Great Dao.

It somewhat resembled a twisted serpent, though it also looked like a divine dragon.

"Imperial Aura? Impossible! How have you become Emperor again!"

The prophecy was now entirely fulfilled!

Not only Xing Hepu, but even Song Lin was a little taken aback...

He had unexpectedly triggered the "Emperor’s Seal" left behind by the Heavenly Emperor. This seal belonged to an Emperor, granting the bearer an imperial title and access to the weapons stored in Danqiu.

However, the relevant functions had not yet been activated—only a wisp of energy had leaked out.

The Kui Dragon then transformed into a whip, quietly falling into Song Lin’s hand.

Could this Emperor’s Seal’s empowerment be closely related to the Emperor’s Four Treasures?

Just this wisp of energy was enough to make the Kui Dragon submit.

But now wasn’t the time for speculation. Seeing that Xing Hepu was about to flee, Song Lin swung the whip through the void, and a large stone struck Xing Hepu’s back, knocking him to the ground.

The battle ended!

Song Lin tied him up using the whip. The mark on his forehead gradually faded, and he could no longer sense it anymore.

It should have been the yellow jade that triggered this seal.

"Why do you possess the Imperial Aura?"

Xing Hepu seemed completely indifferent to his predicament.

"Shut up."

Song Lin released the family of three trapped inside the Upper Pure Pearl.

"Cousin!"

Song Pan’er exclaimed with excitement.

Her uncle and aunt, however, looked at him with unfamiliarity on their faces.

Song Pan’er explained everything to them inside, but they still couldn’t believe that their nephew had turned into this—a powerful immortal with extraordinary mana.

"Are you... still Lin’er?" Song Jie asked.

"I’ve always been."

They all moved to a more concealed location.

"Uncle, what are your plans next?"

After this calamity, Song Jie could essentially be considered a dead man. If he were to reappear, countless eyes would focus on them.

Not knowing what to do, Song Lin advised, "Go to Shu and live in seclusion. I’ll send someone to escort you there."

"What about you..." Song Pan’er seemed to sense something and felt a twinge of reluctance in her heart.

"I am a carefree traveler of the immortals, unbound by worldly concerns."

Song Lin smiled nonchalantly.

He then sent Erlang God, along with Taoist Soldiers, to escort them away using an eye-blocking technique.

Song Lin gazed into the distance, his eyes following their figures until they disappeared beyond the horizon.

They would not meet again in this life—the karma of this cycle had come to an end.

The gold and silver treasures Song Lin gifted them were enough to enjoy ten lifetimes of wealth and prosperity.

He also left them ten talismans; under Divine Establishment, nothing could penetrate their defenses.

Returning to the Upper Pure Pearl, Song Lin turned his gaze to the old man bound like a dumpling and chuckled, "Xing Hepu, isn’t it? Why don’t you explain what’s going on?"

Song Lin’s eyes burned with an intense light.

This man was a great divination master. If he could pry some secrets from his lips, the rewards would be incalculable.

More crucially, he needed to understand what was truly going on in this world.

Who was the mastermind behind the Upper Immortal? What was the karma of this world? All these answers needed uncovering.

"The Heavenly Mechanism must not be revealed!" Xing Hepu remained tight-lipped.

"You old fraud—when you claimed I was a variable and tried to kill me, why didn’t you say the Heavenly Mechanism must not be revealed?"

"So when you face someone you think you can bully, you get rid of them, but when it’s someone you can’t provoke, suddenly the Heavenly Mechanism forbids it, right?"

Song Lin sneered.

Always preaching submission to fate, yet hypocritical to the core. It was nothing more than fear—fear of losing control of their destiny. That’s why they took action against those who sought change, under the pretense of serving Heaven’s will.

Would Heaven truly not tolerate a variable?

Change or no change, it was all part of the Great Dao.

This time, Xing Hepu seemed to have cultivated the Mute Zen, refusing to say a single word.

"Fine, we’ll wait it out then."

Song Lin sealed all his acupuncture points and placed him by the lakeside, rendering him immobile like a statue.

The twelfth year as an Upper Immortal.

The Jade Liquid Rejuvenation Pill achieved great success. It was the essence of Ren Water fused with vital energy, golden in color, as solid as crystal, also known as Flying Gold Crystal.

Using Flying Gold Crystal for alchemy fortified the Golden Core, making it robust and radiant, seamless and flawless, unified in harmony.

The Nourishing Pill technique reached perfection—flawless and without leakage.

Song Lin had stepped into the middle stage of Core Formation within the alchemy realm.

Next was the Golden Liquid Rejuvenation Pill.

Seeing Song Lin breakthrough, even Xing Hepu, who could only move his eyeballs by the lake, had his eyes bulge in disbelief.

The thirteenth year as an Upper Immortal.

Song Lin summoned Li Zhan, Qin Shubao, Xinn Gongping, and other spirits into the Upper Pure Pearl to cultivate and prepare their strength.

The fourteenth year as an Upper Immortal.

Qin Shubao and Weio Chigong regained Core Formation strength. Xing Hepu remained tight-lipped, but his gaze began to shift strangely.

The fifteenth year as an Upper Immortal.

No significant events occurred.

The twentieth year as an Upper Immortal.

Li Zhan broke through to the Wind Hero Realm and began his training in the mortal world, heading to Shu in search of other Swordman Daos.

At this time, Song Lin returned to the real world.

...

Shi Yinhua summoned the Seven Temple Masters and high-ranking members of the Taoist Temple.

Song Lin seated himself as Shi Yinhua presented a letter.

"A message from the Taoist School. Gather at Yellow Phoenix Valley in seven days. The target is the Blood Prison Ghost Mansion, rumored to be the source of Yin Mountain demons, directly linked to the Netherworld Ghost Mansion."

"Not only are the people of Mei Mountain Jungle coming, but others from neighboring jungles as well. This battle won’t be easy," Shi Yinhua said with a furrowed brow.

"It’s fine. If it wasn’t a tough fight, how else could we demonstrate the superiority of my alliance?" The Master of the Qi Eating Temple, Shan Hai, chuckled. The cultivation skill had greatly benefited him.

"Indeed. These beasts are nothing to fear—it’s time to showcase our brilliance."

"Right. If we fight, we fight with grandeur. This is the first battle under the Donghua Alliance—let’s make it a resounding success."

The Donghua Alliance referred to the faction secretly allied with Song Lin.

The unity of the masses was their strongest asset.

Song Lin nodded slightly.

Of course, his optimism was measured.

At its core, it was still a motley crew, with many more skilled at boasting than actual combat.

Nonetheless, the battle must proceed. True gold is tempered in fire—better to weed out opportunists early and sharpen the disciples’ resolve.
