After we broke up, I awakened my divine body. Why are you crying?

Chapter 288 Jade Pool Residence

……

Ji Chen did not sleep that night.

After returning to Tianchen Residence, he sat cross-legged in the yard, carefully recalling the insights he had gained today on the Emperor Burial Platform.

Moreover, over the past two days, he could vaguely feel that there were signs of a breakthrough in his body.

This is a huge improvement brought about after the battle with Qin Zhen.

"Buzz!"

Time passes slowly.

Unconsciously, the distant sky gradually became brighter.

The morning sun shines, and everything seems to be fully revived at this moment.

A powerful aura surged out from Ji Chen's body uncontrollably.

His cultivation finally broke through to the seventh level of Zhan Dao Realm at this moment!

"Congratulations, senior brother!"

Outside the yard, Zhuang Yan, who was cleaning, obviously noticed something. He walked in and clasped his fists to congratulate.

"You have made considerable progress during this period." Ji Chen smiled slightly.

He could sense that the aura emanating from Zhuang Yan had already reached the second level of the Dao of Slashing Realm, which was one small realm higher than when they first met.

"This is all thanks to the help of my senior brother." Zhuang Yan said seriously.

When they met for the first time, Ji Chen gave him ten drops of Earth Spirit Milk, which has always made Zhuang Yan grateful.

He has been in the palace for six years and is still a menial disciple. He has never received any care from Qianlong Palace or anyone else.

Only Ji Chen gave him such help.

Moreover, out of the ten drops of Earth Spirit Milk, he only absorbed one drop during this period of time, which allowed his cultivation to break through to the second level of the Zhan Dao Realm.

In Zhuang Yan's opinion, if all ten drops were refined and absorbed, he would be able to advance two or three small realms again!

This undoubtedly gave Zhuang Yan the first hope of becoming a formal disciple of Qianlong Mansion!

"Practice well."

Ji Chen stood up, patted his shoulder, and walked out of Tianchenju.

Walking all the way towards somewhere in the back mountain of Qianlong Mansion.

Not long after, at the foot of the emperor's burial platform and in front of the ancient stairs, Ji Chen looked around and found that in addition to Gu Si Miao, Tang Qingman and the Kunlun Saint were also there.

"Why are you here too?" he asked curiously.

"What's wrong? Did I disturb your date?" Tang Qinglan couldn't help but tease.

The Kunlun Saint said calmly, "The Emperor Burial Platform is a secret place for cultivation in the palace. Can't we come?"

"Blame me for being nosy. Just pretend I never asked." Ji Chen shrugged.

Soon, the four of them walked up the ancient stairs to the Emperor's Burial Platform.

"Isn't that Ji Chen? Here he comes again?"

"Damn it! He went even further today. Not only Gu Si Miao, but even the Kunlun Saint and the Third Princess were here. What kind of shitty luck does this guy have in love?" The fat-headed and big-eared disciple from yesterday was also in the Emperor Burial Platform. When he saw Gu Si Miao, the Kunlun Saint and Tang Qingman following Ji Chen, he gritted his teeth.

"What a bad luck! Why are you here again?"

Not far away, a cold snort was heard. It was the person who had struggled with the fat-headed and big-eared disciple yesterday.

"Good morning, fellow brothers and sisters, hello? Didn't you go to the Star Destiny Stage to fight to the death? How come both of you are still alive?"

Ji Chen walked slowly over and recognized the two people from yesterday. He couldn't help but ask curiously.

"This fat, big-eared fellow is worthy of going on the astrology stage with me?"

"You are such a coward! If you don't dare, then you don't dare. There is no question of whether you are worthy or not."

"You just don't deserve it!"

"You are afraid and don't dare!"

After hearing Ji Chen's words, the two of them started arguing again. When they were about to fight, fortunately, several disciples who were traveling with them hurriedly stopped them.

"You are quite good at stirring up trouble." The Holy Maiden of Kunlun spoke suddenly.

Ji Chen was startled when he heard this, and then shrugged, "They started the quarrel first, what does it have to do with me?"

"Dear donors, we meet again. It seems that you are really destined to be with our Lingshan Buddhism." Not long after they sat down, the Holy Son of Lingshan appeared. He walked forward and greeted Ji Chen and others. At the same time, he did not forget to invite them, wanting to recruit them into Buddhism.

"Master, are you here again today to pray for the souls of the dead?" Ji Chen asked casually.

However, the Holy Son of Lingshan looked solemn and said, "It is not salvation, but salvation."

"What's the difference?" Tang Qinglan was stunned.

"The souls that are saved are evil spirits, and the souls that are saved are sufferings. How can the souls of the past palace masters be described as saved? I save them from the sufferings they encountered on the road to rebirth." He spoke with a serious face.

Ji Chen remained silent, looking at the other person, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"Donor, please feel free to speak frankly if you have anything to say." The Holy Son of Lingshan turned his eyes.

"Master, you have come all the way from the Western Land to join Qianlong Mansion. I see that your purpose is not to practice in the mansion?" Ji Chen asked.

"nature."

The Holy Son of Lingshan nodded and said, "My real purpose for entering the palace this time is for this Emperor Burial Platform. If I can help the previous palace masters to enter the reincarnation cycle, it will be a great merit and may help me achieve the true Buddha."

Hearing his words, Ji Chen and others were all dumbfounded.

"How come I didn't realize that a monk like you is so ambitious?" Tang Qinglan couldn't help but speak.

They didn't talk for too long. Soon, the Holy Son of Lingshan got up and left. He went to the place where he had sat yesterday and began to chant the Buddhist Scripture of Rebirth.

Until the evening.

When Ji Chen and others left the Emperor Burial Platform, the Holy Son of Lingshan had not yet stood up.

Yuchiju.

This is the courtyard where Gu Simiao and the other two live.

Ji Chen followed them from the Emperor's Burial Platform and came here, and sat down in the courtyard.

The Holy Maiden of Kunlun made some tea, which was made from the leaves of the Kunlun sacred tree. She brought it to the stone table in the courtyard. She poured a cup for herself, Gu Simiao, and Tang Qingman respectively, and then started drinking it by herself.

Ji Chen looked at the empty cup in front of him and couldn't help but gasp. Finally, he couldn't help but said, "Although the Saint Maiden has become enlightened and cut off her past, I haven't provoked you. Since we met in Linxian City before entering the mansion, you seem to have always had a problem with me?"

Before the Kunlun Saintess could speak, Gu Simiao stepped forward immediately. She picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Ji Chen herself. Then she spoke, "This is the way to cut off emotions and desires. Not only will she forget everything in the past, but she will also be subconsciously wary of everything in the past because she is afraid of being attacked by the power of the Great Dao. Don't take it too seriously."

Upon hearing this, Ji Chen frowned and seemed to want to say something, but finally chose to remain silent.

He looked at the teacup in front of him, then reached out to pick it up, and suddenly said, "It can't be poisonous, right?"

"Do you like to drink or not?"

Upon hearing this, Kunlun Saint Lady was immediately furious, "My two sisters and I drank this tea, how could it be poisonous?"

"Just because there's no poison in the tea doesn't mean there's no poison in the cup." Ji Chen expressed what he was thinking.

"you!"

Hearing this, the Holy Maiden of Kunlun gritted her teeth in anger.
