Chapter 77 The End of the Universe is Compilation
In an instant, outside the Xuanyuan Temple.
The two demons and Yang Jiao embraced each other and wept bitterly, looking up at the sky.
The tall, thin Liu Gui wiped away his tears and said enviously:
"For a whole thousand years, my brother and I have been here every day hoping that a tribulation of lightning would descend to help us become immortals, but we have waited for so long and nothing has happened!"
The short, plump peach spirit even materialized into a peach tree, gesturing with its branches to show Yang Jiao the charred patches on them, and cried out:
"Look, in order to become an immortal, I go up and get struck by lightning whenever I see thunder."
"You've all been struck by lightning and turned into lightning-struck trees, yet you still haven't ascended!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Jiao tearfully reached out and touched it, asking with longing:
"Then can you cut off your hand and give it to me? This lightning-struck wood is worth a fortune."
The peach spirit immediately transformed into human form and kept a distance from Yang Jiao.
The three of them were all disillusioned souls.
Seeing how much they longed to become immortals but had waited a thousand years without success due to their poor aptitude, Yang Jiao was moved. She secretly raised a finger to the two demons and said:
"I do have a little path to becoming an immortal."
Liu Guitao immediately squatted down, squeezing Yang Jiao between his left and right sides and urging her:
"Tell me quickly, tell me, what method is it?"
Yang Jiao was squeezed like a sandwich filling, restrained and unable to move, and pointed at the peach spirit, saying:
"I want the lightning-struck wooden sword..."
Without a word, the peach spirit immediately snapped off her arm and respectfully placed it in front of Yang Jiao, saying simply:
"Little Immortal, please accept this. We are wood spirits, and we will grow back in a few days."
After saying that, he wiped away the black stain with some disgust, frowning as he said:
"Next time I'll find some lightning to strike me again, and make the pattern look nicer before I send it to you."
Seeing how enthusiastic the two of them were about becoming immortals, Yang Jiao could only helplessly say:
"The Investiture of the Gods will appear in a dozen years. Anyone who sacrifices their life on the battlefield will be deified according to their merits."
Speaking of this, Yang Jiao remembered that she had initially wanted to secure a spot on the Investiture of the Gods so that Yang Tianyou could also become an immortal and be spared the suffering of reincarnation.
Upon hearing this, the two demons became interested and quickly pressed for an answer:
"What is the Investiture of the Gods? What can we two brothers do in a dozen years to become immortals?"
Yang Jiao still had some reservations about the Investiture of the Gods, after all, that thing was truly immoral, and once you were on the list, you would die and your soul would be made a god.
One's cultivation level is forever stuck at that point, with no possibility of further advancement.
Considering all this, it's better not to be deified.
Then he explained it clearly to the two demons:
"The Investiture of the Gods allows people to become immortals after death, but their cultivation stagnates, which is very inhumane."
Upon hearing this, the tall and thin Willow Ghost and the Peach Spirit exchanged a glance, both seeing eagerness in each other's eyes.
They said in unison:
"To become an immortal after death?! Is there really such a good thing?!"
They don't need to cultivate diligently; they only need to die once to become immortals.
What's the difference between this and a pie falling from the sky?
Yang Jiao looked at the two who were determined to become immortals and said:
"What's so good about becoming an immortal? You'll still be under the control of the Heavenly Court and won't have any freedom at all."
The two brothers stood up in unison and retorted:
"Becoming an immortal would be wonderful! We demons are not tolerated by the world, and becoming an immortal is our lifelong pursuit!"
Yang Jiao felt that, just by looking at their qualifications,
This pursuit is a lifelong endeavor!
Advice:
"You don't know the virtue of the Heavenly Court, that's why you yearn for it so much. What's so good about being on duty there? You only get one peach a year."
"What?!!"
The willow ghost peach spirit couldn't believe her ears; excitement shone in her eyes as she yearned even more:
"Can immortals give out peaches of immortality?"
Yang Jiao rested her chin on her hand and sighed again:
"Yes, just one peach and a few elixirs."
"what?!"
The peach spirit couldn't stand still any longer. He looked around, wanting to see where there was more lightning, so that even if he was struck dead, he could become an immortal.
Is the compensation really that good?
Not only do they give you peaches of immortality, but they also give you elixirs of immortality.
This is truly a unit only gods could have.
The envy in Liu Gui's eyes was almost tangible. He and his brother only knew that becoming immortals would bring them acceptance, but they never expected this.
Becoming a deity comes with so many benefits.
He quickly pressed on, asking again:
"Little girl, is there anything else? Is there anything else?"
Yang Jiao thought about it and realized that the old man with the immortal-like appearance seemed to be wandering around here and there all day without doing anything serious.
Even the two immortals guarding the South Heavenly Gate weren't very diligent in their duties; they seemed quite lax, unlike a good company.
Then he said again:
"I feel like even if I were a god, I wouldn't be able to contribute much light and heat. I'd be doing nothing all day, probably with too many holidays, working one day and resting three."
The short, stocky peach spirit, holding her older brother's hand, hurriedly called out:
"Brother, stop me! I want to die!"
The two demons were so envious they almost cried. They knelt down facing the sky and wailed:
"We two brothers would rather die than not become immortals in this lifetime!"
Yang Jiao couldn't help but sigh as she listened:
"As expected of the land of Donglu, the bloodline is pure!"
A native of Shandong, with a family history of taking the civil service exam.
Liu Guitao Jing grabbed Yang Jiao and burst into tears, sobbing and pleading:
"Where will the Investiture of the Gods appear more than ten years from now? Boss, tell me quickly, I'm going to find a good place to die first."
Yang Jiao was terrified by their reactions. How could they be so eager to die?
Although their aptitude is poor, they still have a lot of room for improvement.
Why are you thinking about being deified after death?
He hurriedly said:
"When the Shang and Zhou war breaks out, anyone who makes a contribution will have a chance to be listed on the list, regardless of which side they are on. The battlefield should be in the area of Xiqi and Chaoge."
As soon as he finished speaking...
Just then, the willow ghost leaped upwards.
"I'm off..."
Halfway through the jump, the peach spirit pulled him down and whispered in his ear:
"Brother, don't worry. Let's go with this little immortal together, so that neither of us will be clueless and fail to make the list in the end."
Upon hearing this, Liu Gui immediately agreed:
"Yes, yes, we'll follow her from now on. We absolutely can't let her go and become an immortal and forget about us two brothers."
Having made up their minds, the two demons squatted down together, squeezing Yang Jiao in the middle, and said amicably:
"What did the little immortal want to do by cutting down the tree just now? We two brothers will help you."
"You like willow wood, huh? Come on, cut off this leg of mine. It's thick and of good quality."
He stood up, and without saying a word, tore off his left leg with a snap and handed it to Yang Jiao, saying:
"Come on, what kind of cart bed do you want? Do you want it with willow branches on it? My hair quality is actually not bad."
Seeing that Yang Jiao remained silent, Liu Gui took matters into his own hands.
He grabbed his own leg and started digging, determined to make the best quality truck bed to repay the little girl for guiding him.
Seeing this, the peach demon was not about to be outdone. He quickly picked up a knife and began carving his severed arm.
He could even give Yang Jiao a look that said, "Don't worry, boss, I'll handle this."
"I'll carve an exceptional lightning-struck wooden sword!"
Soon, a peach wood sword and a cart appeared in front of Yang Jiao.
I stood up and assembled the wheels onto the cargo bed, and it turned out to be a perfect wooden tricycle.
It's extremely practical!
While she was admiring it
The two demons exchanged a glance, then stepped forward, knelt down, and kowtowed to Yang Jiao, saying:
"My brother Gao Ming and my brother Gao Jue thank you for your guidance, little aunt. If you ever need our help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask!"
They looked at Yang Jiao earnestly, waiting for her reply.
Unexpectedly,
After hearing them introduce themselves, Yang Jiao took several steps back until her back hit the wall of the Xuanyuan Temple before stopping.
He shouted to the heavens:
"My goodness, I've met someone with eyes that can see a thousand miles and ears that can hear the wind!"
