Chapter 1026: Enduring Hardship Without It
The people who were chatting idly in the teahouse all turned to look at Xiao Han.
Being stared at by so many hidden big shots made Xiao Han nervous for a moment. But since they had been hanging out together for so long and were all familiar faces, she wasn't too afraid.
Seeing that everyone was looking over, he subconsciously straightened his back.
He then said, “If you seniors want to become like ordinary people, it’s not effective to gather here and imitate small-town life. You should go to places where low-level cultivators gather, or even go to live in mortal kingdoms. That way you can integrate better and be more effective.”
No one was surprised that Xiao Han had seen through their purpose in gathering there. After all, Xiao Han was already hanging out with Ling Xiao like a lover.
Looking at Xiao Han, Granny Liu said helplessly, "What you've mentioned has been used by cultivators on missions before, but the results were mediocre. Since that's the case, why don't we all get together and try living like mortals? At least we're all cultivators on the same level, so it'll be more comfortable for us to get along."
Xiao Han then realized that she had been too clever for her own good.
However, she still felt that doing the task this way would be the least effective.
Suddenly, Xiao Han thought of a solution.
"Then everyone can seal their cultivation, fall from their pedestal, and without the support of cultivation, they can truly become a human being again when they have to struggle for a living."
These cultivators were all extremely intelligent, and they understood immediately after Xiao Han explained.
Then everyone started discussing the feasibility of this method.
When they entered the mortal realm to do this task, their mindset was still one of superiority. They didn't need to eat, drink, or relieve themselves, so they couldn't truly empathize with the lives of ordinary people.
Perhaps this is why they couldn't make the mission effective.
Ling Xiao suddenly said, "The Celestial Lord Biluo has a special mustard seed space. Once a cultivator enters it, he becomes a mortal. Perhaps we can borrow it and all of us can enter it together and be mortals for a period of time. Maybe the mission will be more effective."
Xin, the female cultivator, immediately said, "I have some connection with the God of Azure Heaven, so I'll give it a try."
After saying that, she left the group to contact the Azure Heaven God.
Soon, Xin, the female cultivator, returned and said, "Everyone, please tidy up. We'll all go in together after the Azure Heaven God arrives."
Whether it works or not, if we all act like ordinary people, there will be less friction or more unity among ordinary people.
There was basically nothing for anyone to pack, since cultivators carry all their belongings with them.
However, there are quite a few high-level cultivators in the town doing this task, so they need to ask who else wants to go in together.
Before long, a graceful and beautiful female cultivator, shrouded in divine light and surrounded by the power of laws, appeared in the town.
Xin and Ling Xiao bowed and greeted each other, saying, "Greetings, Divine Lord Biluo."
The others also hurriedly bowed in greeting.
The Celestial Being of the Azure Heaven gently raised her hand, "Fellow Daoists, there's no need for such formalities."
She then looked at Xin, the female cultivator, and asked, "Ziqi, did you come up with this method of sealing one's cultivation level and becoming a mortal to gain experience?"
Xin Nuxiu, also known as Xin Ziqi, shook her head, "It wasn't me, it was her."
She pointed at Xiao Han.
The Azure Heaven God's gaze fell on Xiao Han, and he was clearly surprised to see that she only had the cultivation of a True God.
Ling Xiao said with a grin, "Azure God, her name is Xiao Han, and she is now my partner."
The terms "partner" and "romantic partner" are different. A partner refers to two people who are together, while a romantic partner is a couple who have made a vow through the Heavenly Dao.
A smile appeared on the face of the Azure Heaven God, "Young Ling, we are all waiting for you to advance to the God-Emperor level, so don't let us down."
This is a warning to him, telling him not to miss the path to immortality.
Ling Xiao is truly the fastest cultivator in the history of the Divine Palace. When he advanced to the God Emperor realm, he was only about seven hundred years old, which shocked the entire Divine Realm.
Ling Xiao said regretfully, "My Dao Heart is not yet perfected; I'm still lacking in refinement. I'm afraid I won't be able to advance for the time being."
The Azure Heaven God nodded and said nothing more.
Although Ling Xiao is a renowned cultivation prodigy, he seems to be able to easily cross the threshold of Godhood, which is truly astonishing and arouses envy and jealousy.
At this time, the cultivators who were doing the mission had all gathered at the Azure Heaven God.
When the Azure Heaven Goddess saw that everyone had arrived, she raised her jade hand, and a treasure resembling a bowl appeared in the sky.
The bowl, with its mouth facing down, began to spin rapidly.
Immediately, a beam of light was projected from below the mouth of the bowl.
The Azure Heaven God said, "Cultivators who wish to become mortals and experience mortal life can come down here to enter. Once inside, they must stay for at least three years before they can come out."
All twenty-odd monks in the town were willing to enter.
Each of the guardian elders of the Divine Palace is required to remain in their post for a thousand years, handling the palace's affairs. The Azure Heaven Goddess is currently one of the guardian elders, and since she believes that experiencing mortal life firsthand is a good idea, everyone naturally won't miss this opportunity.
Ling Xiao grabbed Xiao Han's wrist. "Come on, you come with me and experience what it's like to be a mortal."
Xiao Han has been by his side, and so far, nothing bad has happened to her that is visible to the naked eye. This makes Ling Xiao feel very strange, and he wants to keep Xiao Han by his side to verify this.
Xiao Han didn't refuse. Since the other party had promised to help her advance to the Divine Lord level, she was willing to cooperate with any request.
So what if she's just an ordinary person? She's had so many experiences.
In fact, Xiao Han was too careless and too confident.
She forgot that sometimes being an ordinary person can be really tough.
However, Ba Dou was still playing in the woods on the edge of town. Xiao Han hurriedly used her mind to contact Ba Dou, urging him to come quickly.
Then, she only had time to let Ba Dou stand on her left arm before Ling Xiao pulled her right hand and made her stand under the pillar of light.
The next moment, the two people and the bird were sucked into the bowl.
The scene changed, and Xiao Han found that everyone who had entered had landed in a desolate desert area.
At this moment, the cultivators who had entered first were all looking around.
Soon, more than twenty people entered the bowl-shaped meson space.
Fatty Wang, unaccustomed to his heavy body, exclaimed in surprise, "Oh dear, it's even difficult to jump now!"
Old Zhou, who was at odds with him, happened to be beside him and said disdainfully, "You're in a mortal body now, do you think you can fly?"
To be honest, everyone was quite unaccustomed to suddenly becoming a mortal with no magical powers at all.
However, since everyone was a high-ranking cultivator, they had to save face, so no one spoke up.
Xiao Han immediately checked her body and her storage bracelet.
Surprisingly, his body felt incredibly heavy; a jump only lifted him a little over a foot. This was clearly not the performance expected of a body tempered by spiritual energy.
This means that even physical strength has been suppressed to a level similar to that of an ordinary mortal.
The storage bracelet cannot be opened.
She hurriedly asked Ba Dou, "Ba Dou, can you speak?"
Ba Dou cackled twice, making an awkward pronunciation, "Tender, tender."
Then it squawked a few times in fear, flapped its wings, and circled twice above its head.
Xiao Han asked again, "Can the storage space be opened?"
Although I had a feeling, I still wanted to ask.
Ba Dou struggled for a while, but could only make the syllables "puff, puff...".
Well, it seems that nowadays, Ba Dou has lost all his supernatural powers except for being able to understand human speech.
These powerful figures who came in have already experienced the inconvenience of not having spiritual power.
They were all powerful cultivators, and even if they had forgotten the way they came, they couldn't let others laugh at them. So they calmly began to discuss where to go next.
Looking at the endless sea of sand all around, Xiao Han suddenly felt like crying.
Without food or water, they relied on the strength of ordinary people to walk in the desert.
Would you say she's forcing herself to endure hardship?
