Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm-Chapter 746 - : 745

Chapter 746: 745

Jiang Li was having a delightful time with the others from the Underworld, engaging in casual conversations about the extraordinary occurrences they had encountered.

“At that time, the Ten Halls of Yama all challenged me together to test my abilities. After our battle ended, King Chujiang complained that I did not hit him hard enough to even knock out his teeth.”

“There’s also Mother Hou Tu, who posed as a female ghost. She hoodwinked me into touring the Underworld and tricked me into drinking Meng Po soup, hoping to make me the Master of the Underworld.”

“Luckily, Meng Po’s soup had no effect on me. I remembered my true identity, and I am certainly not the Master of the Underworld.”

“Senior Buddha Long Eyebrow, I have seen you in the River of Time. However, I was afraid that conversing with you would affect the direction of the world, so this is actually our first real conversation.”

Upon seeing Jiang Li, Buddha Long Eyebrow was filled with thoughtful reflection.

...

Nine thousand years ago, he was the closest to achieving immortality. However, the disappearance of the path to becoming Immortal led him to the brink of spiritual collapse. He sought alternative paths to immortality and almost fell into the devil’s path in the process.

At that time, Immortal Long Eyebrow told him that after the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, there is the Mahayana Realm. This helped stabilize his mind and shift his focus towards attaining the Mahayana Realm and the Mahayana Buddhist Law, surmising a connection between the two.

After he died in battle and came to the Underworld, he discovered that the Mahayana Realm didn’t actually exist, and realized that Immortal Long Eyebrow had deceived him.

He understood the necessity of Immortal Long Eyebrow’s false words. The idea of the Mahayana Realm was meant to give hope to those at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

After over eight thousand years, he had given up on pursuing the Mahayana Realm. However, a Human Emperor unexpectedly emerged in the Jiuzhou Continent and genuinely attained the Mahayana Realm.

Unfortunately, that Human Emperor was a disappointment to Buddha Long Eyebrow. The Human Emperor only reached the Mahayana Realm but had no connection to the Great Buddhist Law.

Now, he has finally found someone who has achieved both the Mahayana Realm and embodies the principles of Mahayana Buddhist Law.

How wonderful!

Elsewhere, after being educated by Emperor Chu, the Primordial Ancestor finally realized that he had been deceived by the Heavenly Dao.

“It’s unknown how Jiuzhou, which is ruled by ordinary people, will fare, or how far it is from establishing order. The path of time can aid in establishing order, so for now, I’ll spare your life.”

Hearing the descriptions of Jiuzhou from the old Human Emperor, Emperor Chu realized that Jiuzhou was still far from reaching a state of order.

“Alright, let’s leave the conversation here for now. If we can resolve the rule of destruction, we will have plenty of time in the future to chat. Our priority now is to observe the state of this world.” Jiang Li stood up, bidding everyone farewell.

“According to the words of Primordial Ancestor, it won’t be long before the Heavenly Dao brings back the idle populace. Emperor Chu and I will wait until that happens.”

Emperor Chu decided to leave the Primordial Ancestor in the Underworld for the moment, planning to bring him to Jiuzhou after fully understanding its current state.

Watching the fading figures of Jiang Li and Emperor Chu, the Human Emperor Lu sighed deeply. His sigh carried a hint of helplessness, but was mostly filled with relief.

“Alright, get prepared. In a few days, a large number of immortal souls might come to register in the Underworld.”

“Yama, you will have a hard time.” Mother Hou Tu patted the shoulder of King Yama, entrusting him with this heavy responsibility.

King Yama contemplated how long it would take to settle karma from those immortals, who often lived for tens of thousands of years and had destroyed countless worlds in their lifetimes.

Looks like it’s time for some overtime work.

“You’re called Battle Immortal? Are you interested in working in the Underworld?”

….

Before going directly to Jiuzhou, Jiang Li and Emperor Chu first paid a visit to Zhou Tian’s World.

Upon seeing the identical Blue Star, both of them knew that the idle populace had experienced the same things as they had.

“As expected, the only differences among us are our beliefs after we transcended.”

“I stick to my ideas, believing that the world can achieve fairness and justice.”

“You are fixated on the fact that you were framed by the nobles, wanting to establish order in the world, yet also desiring to become part of the privileged class.”

“As for the idle populace… they have given up.”

“Maybe he felt that his persistence in justice was meaningless as it led to his death. The world didn’t change, and he was given a second chance at life by the heavens. He wanted to cherish it, live freely and carefree, no longer thinking about how to change the world.”

“Or perhaps he was guided step by step by the system, ending up the way he is today.”

“His mental disorder made him subconsciously believe that energy is not conserved.”

Emperor Chu didn’t speak, nor did he object. That meant he agreed with Jiang Li’s point of view.

Different beliefs have led to their current selves.

Jiang Li had no regrets, and neither did Emperor Chu.

“Let’s go to Jiuzhou. Remember, we have to disguise ourselves.”

…..

In the busy streets, the two individuals—who had altered their appearances—listened to the conversations of the passersby.

“It’s been a long time since we’ve seen the Human Emperor.”

“Isn’t the White Human Emperor always… Oh, you mean Jiang Li. You’re right, we haven’t heard from him for a year. It doesn’t feel much different whether he’s here or not. If you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t have noticed his absence.”

“The Human Emperor has ascended to the Immortal Realm and there hasn’t been any news since then. The eight desolate realms are still watching our Jiuzhou closely.”

“Fortunately, White Human Emperor has boosted his cultivation to the Heavenly Immortal level through the Spirit Plant Array and with the aid of Immortal Artifacts; he has solved the problems caused by the eight desolate realms.”

The Spirit Plant Array was given to the idle populace by Jiang Li in a dream, and they later transferred it to Bai Hongtu.

It seems to have worked effectively.

“The Immortal Realm has also been silent. Logically, since the Immortal Realm has appeared, why is there still no one ascending?”

A year ago, the shadow of the Immortal Emperor appeared in the sky over Jiuzhou, and a immortal ascension ladder even connected Jiuzhou. The Immortal Realm later recalled the ladder.

To those who didn’t know the truth, it seemed that the Immortal Realm had noticed Jiuzhou and would prevent any invasion from alien Heavenly Demons.

“Neither Immortal Long-Life Weng nor Old Buddha of Mount Sumeru seemed to have any intention of ascending.”

“Especially Old Buddha of Mount Sumeru, he became an Immortal under impossible circumstances. But he did not celebrate excessively; instead, he has remained alone at the top of Mount Sumeru ever since and never stepped down.”

“Who knows? Perhaps the upper level cultivators know something that we do not.”

“Speaking of Jiang Li, he really evokes envy. He has so many beautiful companions serving him. If I had one of them, it would be worth living half a lifetime less.”

“Forget it. With your tortured cucumber-like face, lack of cultivation, and flawed personality, why would they fancy you?”

“I’m just saying. Who would dare to fancy the Human Emperor’s companions? That’s a death wish.”

“I heard that five hundred years ago, the Human Emperor already had ambiguous relationships with many female cultivators. Some rich young masters with high cultivation and a profound background sought to duel with the Human Emperor. Only the victor would be worthy of courtship.”

“The result is obvious. The young talent of the Human Emperor was capable of fighting across realms. Those who coveted the affections of the Emperor’s companions were all put in their place.”

“Not just that, I heard that a lineage’s sole daughter fell for the Human Emperor, but the family didn’t approve as they looked down on the young and inexperienced Human Emperor.”

” What happened afterward is clear. The Human Emperor went against all odds and reached the Mahayana Realm. Even though the Human Emperor didn’t hold a grudge, that family became a thousand-year-old lineage. The first thing that local officials do when they take office is to try to acquaint themselves with that family, who truly lived a life of glory.”
