Journey to the West: Treasure Vase of the Great Dao

Chapter 116 The Plan



Chapter 116 The Plan

After some time, the mist hovering over the Mother-Child River gradually dissipated, and this event also became a mystical occurrence in the Kingdom of Women.

On the other hand, news that Xuan Yue had been taken on as a disciple by the Immortal also spread throughout the Kingdom of Women, and everyone was sighing in relief that, at last, a woman from their kingdom was going to become an Immortal.

However, at this moment, Xuan Yue, who everyone talked about as the future Immortal, looked gloomily at the stern Chang'e and said aggrievedly, "Master, am I really so useless? I can't even sense the Lunar Energy you mentioned yet."

"You're already thinking of giving up just as we've started. Your body is special, allowing you to directly cultivate Lunar Energy without the arduous pursuit of the Heavenly Gate Foundation Establishment like others. You can't even endure this little setback, yet you still want to catch up to your brother, Lu Yu, who you always think about?"

On hearing this, Xuan Yue pouted her lips and said, "But I don't even know what realm Lu Yu is in, or how long it will take for me to catch up to him."@@@@

"I've observed that he is currently at the Five Qi Towards the Origin realm. Not just you, but even I, who ascended to immortality from ancient times to the present, have been trapped here, unable to break through. But Lu Yu has reached this level in less than a thousand years. He is indeed considered one of the rare geniuses in the Three Realms."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yue's face instantly lit up with a joyful smile. The thought of Lu Yu being so formidable filled her with a deep-seated happiness.

Seeing this, Chang'e immediately said impatiently, "If you don't calm your mind and cultivate now, missing out on the prime time for cultivation, even if you become an immortal, you will still end up an old woman. Then I'd like to see how you would find Lu Yu."

At her words, Xuan Yue became instantly anxious at the thought of seeking Lu Yu with her hair white and her face wrinkled. Her body shuddered, and she quickly adjusted her mindset, calmed her mind, and entered the state of cultivation. The Lunar Energy around her seemed to liquify, gradually entering her body with each breath.

Anyone in the Cultivation Realm who saw this scene would probably be envious to death, for this was the legendary Lunar Energy being used so luxuriously for cultivation— truly a wasteful extravagance.

"Do not worry. In the past, there were indeed few in the Three Realms who could handle it, but now our Fruit of Tao is nearing perfection, and we have already touched the edge of Transcendence. This seemingly strange contamination is not difficult for us. Let it continue to grow. Hou Yi's True Spirit can also use this opportunity to return to the world. When the time comes, we will naturally step in to clear the contamination. Then your husband will naturally return to the world, and we can also explore the mysteries of extraterrestrial beings to prepare for Transcendence," said Hou Tu, her mind making more connections.

The more Hou Tu thought about it, the more she believed that the contamination left in Hou Yi was not an oversight by the Ancestral Master but rather intentional. Now, those on the verge of Transcendence, like her, were well aware of Lu Yu's role as the Ancestral Master's contingency, and with Hou Yi's transformation after meeting Lu Yu, it was very likely the Ancestral Master's doing.

It was done to expose them to extraterrestrial things and prepare them for the crises they would face at the time of Transcendence.

Chang'e, however, did not think so deeply. When she heard Empress Hou Tu's plan, her heart nearly leaped from her chest, her years of cultivation seemingly dissipating in that moment.

She once again became the young girl who devoutly wanted to be a good wife to Hou Yi. After so many years alone in Guanghan Palace, If not for the hope of resurrecting Hou Yi, she likely would not have wanted to continue living in this world. Now, her wait finally seemed worthwhile.

"Do not speak of this matter outside. Keep it to yourself and let nature take its course. With us standing behind you, you have nothing to worry about," Hou Tu instructed Chang'e.

Chang'e joyfully agreed, ready to do anything to resurrect her husband.

Meanwhile, Hou Tu sent a divine sense straight into Tushita Palace. Elder Lord, who was originally sitting in front of the Pill Furnace, suddenly opened his eyes. Emotions rippled through his usually placid eyes, and even the flames in the Eight Trigrams Furnace were neglected, causing a foul stench to waft through Tushita Palace, making Golden Horned King and Silver Horned King hurriedly cover their noses.

They also looked at their master in surprise. As a Saint on the verge of Transcendence, they had never seen him lose his composure like this. However, they also knew that it was not the time to disturb him, so they quietly left the hall and closed the doors of Tushita Palace tightly.
