Chapter 230: Fairy Jinghuan, Great Luo Immortal

“Celestial God, Celestial Immortal”

Experiencing the changes in his body, Zhou Chen’s heart was filled with indescribable excitement and joy.

When he first transmigrated, his family was so poor that even rats would shed tears seeing their home.

Now he was the Sovereign of Tian Yuan.

Possessing the entire world.

Moreover, he had achieved Celestial Godhood, attaining immortality and a lifespan rivaling that of Heaven.

It was even more exhilarating than becoming an emperor after transmigrating to ancient times.

He initially cultivated both Immortal and Martial paths, then merged them, and now, after achieving godhood, he could be considered both a Celestial God and a Celestial Immortal.

In essence, all methods and paths, all techniques converge into one, the Three Thousand Great Daos ultimately lead to the same destination.

Based on the information Zhou Chen had gathered.

Gods were categorized as Celestial Gods, True Gods, and Ancestor Gods, corresponding to Celestial Immortals, True Immortals, and Golden Immortals.

Above Ancestor Gods and Golden Immortals were the Great Luo Immortals.

Great Luo Immortals, eternally free and unfettered across all space and time.

At this level.

They could be considered truly immortal and indestructible.

Even if they were obliterated into ashes, leaving no trace behind, after countless eons, they could still resurrect and return, the only difference being the length of time it took.

Of course.

If the resurrection took an infinitely long time, it was basically equivalent to death.

But not entirely dead.

Only by achieving Great Luo Immortal could one truly be considered a true powerhouse in all the heavens and myriad worlds.

However, attaining Great Luo was extremely difficult.

In all the heavens and myriad worlds, countless living beings existed.

Many could become Golden Immortals or Ancestor Gods, but among them, one in a million might achieve Great Luo Immortal.

“Set a small goal for myself, achieve Great Luo as soon as possible!”

Zhou Chen thought to himself, then gathered his thoughts and descended from the sky.

Golden avenues extended from all directions.

Supreme experts traversed space and arrived in the City of Romance.

Each of them was a Great Emperor or a Great Vehicle Half Immortal, a supreme being in the mortal realm, either an ancestor of a major power or a prominent figure.

But before Zhou Chen, they showed no arrogance.

Everyone had a respectful expression, like elementary school students, they bowed in unison and said:

“Congratulations, Sovereign, on achieving godhood, may you enjoy eternal immortal blessings and an unbounded holy life!”

Zhou Chen nodded, dismissing the crowd.

He was now brimming with power.

All he wanted was a good fight to properly adapt.

Today, he achieved Celestial Godhood, and the Tian Yuan World also received immense benefits.

One person’s ascension benefits all.

It was truly the case.

Apart from the blessings bestowed upon achieving godhood, as the World Master, Zhou Chen’s cultivation progress would also promote the world’s advancement.

Conversely, the world’s advancement would also facilitate Zhou Chen’s growth.

They complemented each other.

It was foreseeable that in the coming period, the Tian Yuan World would experience rapid growth.

Ignoring the jubilation and excitement outside.

Zhou Chen began his celebration at home.

He looked at the stunningly beautiful Yao Chi Empress before him, stepped forward, embraced her ample waist from behind, and pulled her into his arms.

“You bastard!”

“Empress Master, I’m sorry, I really want to improve.”

Zhou Chen smiled apologetically:
“Empress Master, I know you’re happy to help me improve, right?”

“Improve your head!”

Yao Chi Empress’s majestic and beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her pretty face flushed.

She wanted to dodge, but after achieving godhood, Zhou Chen’s cultivation was unfathomable, as if reaching the highest heavens and the deepest depths, firmly suppressing her, making her unable to move.

“Sovereign, I’m going to cultivate!”

Seeing Zhou Chen unleashing his divine might, especially after he ascended to Celestial Godhood, his body, defying the natural order, was as if cast from molten steel, his muscles bulging.

Yun Xiao Fairy felt she was no match and wanted to flee the scene.

“Where are you going!?”

Zhou Chen grabbed Yun Xiao Fairy, his Thunderclap Wish-Fulfilling Hand activated, his palm imbued with thunder, as fast as lightning.

Even fighting one against two, he remained effortlessly in control, gaining the upper hand.

Even though Yao Chi Empress and Yun Xiao Fairy were both at the peak of the Great Emperor Realm, they were still no match for him.

“This rascal!”

Yun Xiao Lady and Golden Mother of Yao Chi, residing in Zhou Chen’s Sea of Consciousness, glared at him, their pretty faces flushed, wanting to jump out and give him a good beating.

Truly infuriating.

Although it wasn’t their true bodies, look at what he had done to them!

Every time, he turned them…
The two hurriedly shut off their senses.

But it seemed they could still hear and see those scenes.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, two and a half years passed.

Zhou Chen looked at Yao Ji, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, and slipped away. Now Yao Ji had also achieved the Emperor Realm.

But facing him.

She was still no match.

The same went for Jian Xiong, Dong Fang Wan Er, and the others.

Almost all the women who had interacted with Zhou Chen were now in his City of Romance.

Anyway, Zhou Chen had plenty of space.

He didn’t lack a place for them.

Especially within the Heavenly Boat, each world was sparsely populated and rich in resources.

As long as they were willing, Zhou Chen would take them in.

Basically, none were unwilling.

By now.

The number of beauties Zhou Chen had taken in was in the hundreds of thousands.

Almost all the beauties in the Tian Yuan World at the Emperor Realm and Tribulation Transcending Grand Master level and above had been taken into his embrace.

However, with so many people, Zhou Chen naturally couldn’t split himself.

But unlike mortals.

They were all cultivators.

Most of their time was spent cultivating.

Besides, only by increasing their cultivation level would they have a greater chance of catching Zhou Chen’s eye.

Zhou Chen also occasionally strolled around.

If he saw someone who piqued his interest, he would spend some quality time with them.

His City of Romance and Heavenly Boat had practically become a Women’s Kingdom.

And he was the king of the Women’s Kingdom.

He could favor any of them, anytime, anywhere.

One could only say…
Strength truly allows one to do whatever they please.

After completely expending the accumulated energy within him, Zhou Chen felt an unprecedented sense of exhilaration and satisfaction.

With a thought, he entered the Wind and Moon Mirror.

After achieving godhood.

Zhou Chen could now utilize the Wind and Moon Mirror and begin refining it.

He arrived at a place he had never set foot in before.

Vermilion railings and white stones, green trees and clear streams, truly a place where human presence was rare and dust never settled.

As Zhou Chen admired the scenery, he suddenly heard a heavenly voice coming from behind the mountain:
“Spring dreams vanish with the clouds, falling blossoms drift with the flowing water, a message to all sons and daughters, why seek idle sorrow?”

Zhou Chen looked up and saw a breathtakingly beautiful woman emerge, her movements graceful and elegant, truly unlike any other.
Unparalleled beauty, a stunning presence.

Her immortal sleeves fluttered, a fragrance of musk and orchid filled the air, her lotus garment swayed gently, the tinkling of jade pendants could be heard.

Her smile was like a blossoming peach in spring, her hair piled high in emerald coils;

Her lips were like ripe cherries, her teeth like pomegranate seeds, exuding a sweet fragrance.

Her slender waist, so delicate, danced like windblown snow;
Her pearls and jade ornaments shimmered, adorning her forehead with a golden hue.

Zhou Chen’s eyes sparkled, he smiled and said:

“Fairy Sister, where do you come from, and where are you going?”

“I reside above the Heaven of Separation and within the Sea of Sorrow, in the Dispelling Fragrance Cave of Mount Fangchun, I am Fairy Jinghuan of the Realm of Illusion.”

“I govern the romantic entanglements and debts of the mortal realm, I oversee the grievances of women and the infatuations of men. Recently, there has been an abundance of romantic grievances and entanglements in this place, so I came to investigate and disperse these longings.”

“Meeting you today is no coincidence. The Wind and Moon Mirror is my possession, sensing that you have achieved godhood, I came to offer my congratulations.”

“This place is not far from my realm, there is nothing else here, only personally picked immortal tea, a jar of personally brewed fine wine, a few skilled dancers, and twelve newly composed immortal melodies of the Dream of the Red Chamber. Would you care to join me for a visit?”

“Alright!”

Zhou Chen nodded with a smile. He didn’t believe her words, but he had a rough guess about her identity, she was likely the spirit of the Wind and Moon Mirror.

Zhou Chen was in no hurry, he followed Fairy Jinghuan at a leisurely pace to a place where a stone tablet stood, inscribed with the four large characters: “Realm of Illusion”.

On both sides was a couplet:

“When the false is taken as true, the true also becomes false, where there is nothing, there is also something.”

Passing through the archway, they arrived at a palace gate, inscribed with four large characters:

“Sea of Love and Heaven of Grievances”.

There was another couplet, written in large characters:
【”Vast earth and high heavens, alas, love throughout history never ends”】

【”Infatuated men and resentful women, pity the difficult repayment of romantic debts.”】

“This is just like the Realm of Illusion that Baoyu entered in the Dream of the Red Chamber!” Zhou Chen looked around, following Fairy Jinghuan to the second floor, passing by side halls on both sides, all with plaques and couplets, too numerous to see in one glance, only noticing a few that read:
“Department of Infatuation”, “Department of Grievances”, “Department of Morning Tears”, “Department of Nightly Resentment”, “Department of Springtime Feelings”, “Department of Autumn Sorrow”.

“Department of Ill-Fated Lives”:
【”Spring resentment and autumn sorrow, all self-inflicted, for whom do flower-like beauty and moon-like grace exist?”】

Zhou Chen glanced briefly, not interested in these things.

He looked at Fairy Jinghuan’s voluptuous and graceful figure, wasn’t this more pleasing to the eye than any other scenery?
Fairy Jinghuan moved gracefully, leading Zhou Chen to the back, where beaded curtains and embroidered screens, painted beams and carved eaves, could be seen, the splendor of vermilion doors and gold-paved floors, the snow reflecting on jade windows, it was truly a magnificent palace.

Moreover, immortal flowers bloomed fragrantly, exotic plants filled the air with their scent, it was truly a wonderful place.

Fairy Jinghuan smiled and said: “Come out and greet our esteemed guest!”

Before she finished speaking, several fairies emerged from the room, their lotus sleeves fluttering, their feathered garments swaying, as beautiful as spring blossoms, as alluring as the autumn moon.

“We humbly greet Young Master!”

“No need for formalities!”

Zhou Chen looked at the fairies, his eyes shining.

He could sense that, including Fairy Jinghuan, all these fairies possessed at least Celestial Immortal cultivation. If he could obtain them, wouldn’t he soar to unimaginable heights?

Surrounded by the women, Zhou Chen followed Fairy Jinghuan into the room.

A faint fragrance filled the air, refreshing and invigorating, making one feel as if ascending to immortality.

“This incense is made from the essence of newly sprouted exotic plants from famous mountains and sacred grounds, combined with the oil of various precious trees and pearls, it is called ‘Essence of All Fragrances’.”

Zhou Chen nodded and took a seat with Fairy Jinghuan.

A young maidservant brought tea, the tea was crystal clear, with a unique fragrance and a pure, exquisite taste.

Zhou Chen picked up the cup, took a sip, and praised:

“Good tea!”

“This tea comes from the Dispelling Fragrance Cave of Mount Fangchun, brewed with the dew collected from immortal flowers and spiritual leaves, it is called ‘A Thousand Reds in a Single Cave’.”

Zhou Chen nodded in appreciation.

A Thousand Reds in a Single Cave!
A Thousand Reds Weeping!
What a fitting name.

He looked around, there were guqins, treasure cauldrons, ancient paintings, and new poems, everything imaginable. On the wall hung a couplet:
【”A place of subtle beauty and spiritual energy, a heaven beyond control.”】

After the tea, wine was served.

Jade liquor filled the glass cups, amber nectar poured into the amber goblets.

This wine was fragrant, sweet, and refreshingly different.

Fairy Jinghuan introduced: “This wine is brewed with the essence of a hundred flowers, the sap of ten thousand trees, fermented with unicorn marrow and phoenix milk, hence it is called ‘Ten Thousand Beauties in a Single Cup’.”

“A Thousand Reds Weeping, Ten Thousand Beauties Sorrowing, truly a fine tea and a fine wine!”

Zhou Chen exclaimed.

The fairies accompanying him also introduced themselves.

One was Immortal Sister of Obsessive Dreams, one was Great Master of Devotion, one was Golden Lady of Sorrow, and one was Bodhi of Transcending Hatred, each with a unique Daoist title.

Zhou Chen enjoyed tea, wine, and discussions about the Dao with them.

Serious discussions about the Dao.

This Dao was not that Dao.

During the drinking, twelve dancers appeared, performing a dance and playing music.

“Since the beginning of time, who has been the seed of love? All for the sake of passionate romance. Taking advantage of this Heaven of Separation, on days of heartache, in moments of loneliness, let us express our heartfelt feelings.”

Zhou Chen listened to the music, watched the dance, drank tea, and enjoyed the wine, feeling immensely content.

The only imperfection was…

His enormous Yang Dharma Manifestation needed a secluded and profound place to be settled.

But now.

Zhou Chen had come to understand quite a bit.

The Wind and Moon Mirror was a wondrous treasure, Fairy Jinghuan was the spirit of this treasure, naturally holding the highest position, followed by Immortal Sister of Obsessive Dreams, Great Master of Devotion, Golden Lady of Sorrow, and Bodhi of Transcending Hatred.

They were likely powerful beings born within the Wind and Moon Mirror, with the strongest origins, their cultivation only second to Fairy Jinghuan.

The young maidservant and the twelve dancers were obviously the same, but their origins were not as strong as the four Immortal Sisters.

“Fairy, now that we’ve had tea, wine, watched the dance, and listened to the music, would you be willing to acknowledge me as your master?”

Zhou Chen looked at Fairy Jinghuan and asked directly.

He believed she wouldn’t refuse.

After achieving godhood, Zhou Chen understood many things and had a greater awareness of himself.

He seemed to be quite special.

And Yun Xiao Lady and Yao Chi Empress were likely avatars of powerful figures.

“What do you mean, Young Master?”

Fairy Jinghuan pretended to be confused and displeased.

“Fairy, why pretend ignorance? You said you reside above the Heaven of Separation, within the Sea of Sorrow, in the Dispelling Fragrance Cave of Mount Fangchun, you are Fairy Jinghuan of the Realm of Illusion.”

“This Heaven of Separation, Sea of Sorrow, Dispelling Fragrance Cave of Mount Fangchun, they are all within this Wind and Moon Mirror, right? You are the spirit of the Wind and Moon Mirror!?”

Although Zhou Chen was asking, his voice was filled with certainty:
“The Wind and Moon Mirror actively sought me out, although there are many possibilities, the most likely are two: either it was mine in a past life, or it took a liking to me!”

The past life he referred to was not his past life on Earth, but his previous past life.

He might have been a powerful being.

“Master is indeed wise!”

The displeasure on Fairy Jinghuan’s face vanished, she stood up and bowed:
“This servant, Jinghuan, greets Master!”

“Immortal Sister of Obsessive Dreams （ Great Master of Devotion, Golden Lady of Sorrow, Bodhi of Transcending Hatred ）, greet Master!”

The four Immortal Sisters stood behind Fairy Jinghuan and bowed in unison.

The young maidservant and the twelve dancers followed suit.

“No need for formalities!”

Zhou Chen held Fairy Jinghuan’s soft jade hand, helped her up, sat her on his lap, and asked curiously:

“Can you tell me what’s going on now?”

Fairy Jinghuan’s cheeks flushed, but she didn’t resist, letting Zhou Chen play with her voluptuous and alluring body, she slowly said:
“Master guessed correctly, this servant indeed took a liking to Master’s Supreme Talent.”

“Supreme Talent is something one encounters but cannot seek, its potential is limitless.”

“However, the place where Master resided was not suitable for cultivation, so this servant used accumulated energy to bring Master here!”

“Master cultivates using Romance Points, in fact, it’s not this servant helping Master cultivate, but Master’s Supreme Talent!”

“This servant merely made it tangible for Master, allowing Master to see the Romance Points and have a clear and intuitive feeling!”

“I see!”

Zhou Chen suddenly understood.

He was truly a genius.

A treasure actively sought him out.

“Supreme Talent, boundless potential…”

Zhou Chen thought of Yun Xiao Lady and Empress Master, whom he had turned into “puffs,” those two powerful figures probably also took a liking to his talent.

Otherwise, he would have died countless times.

As expected.

Having talent truly allowed one to do whatever they pleased.

“Jinghuan, now I should be able to refine and acknowledge the Wind and Moon Mirror as my master, how do I do it?”

Zhou Chen asked.

“Hasn’t Master already started doing it?”

Fairy Jinghuan’s voice was soft, her beautiful eyes like water, her delicate body trembling slightly.

“Oh!”

Zhou Chen suddenly realized.

As expected of the Wind and Moon Mirror.

This method of acknowledging a master was truly unique.

“Then Jinghuan, have you acknowledged a master before?”

“What are you saying, Master? You are my first master!”

Fairy Jinghuan pouted:

“Although I’ve existed for hundreds of millions of years, finding a satisfactory master is very difficult!”

“I didn’t want to acknowledge a useless master, only a powerful master like you can help me, and then I can also level up and rise with the tide.”

“With my essence, even Great Luo Immortals can’t help me level up, only those at the Hunyuan level can!”

“And Great Luo Immortals are already powerhouses in all the heavens and myriad worlds, hundreds of millions of worlds might not have one.”

“Holy crap!”

Zhou Chen was taken aback by Fairy Jinghuan’s lofty ambitions:
“You have high standards!”

“So you’re saying you wouldn’t even consider a Great Luo Immortal, you’re really lucky to have found a master!”

“Yes, meeting Master is the greatest fortune of my life!”

Fairy Jinghuan’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her face flushed.

“Actually, I had been on Earth for five hundred years before meeting Master!”

“That Dream of the Red Chamber was just a dream I gave to that writer out of boredom, and then that book came to be!”

“No wonder!”

Zhou Chen suddenly understood, so that was the origin.

“I was about to leave and continue searching, but then I discovered Master, who possesses Supreme Talent.”

Fairy Jinghuan’s eyes were hazy. With her power, coupled with her true form, the Wind and Moon Mirror, no one below Great Luo Immortal could capture her.

But encountering a Great Luo Immortal was not easy, even extremely difficult.

And Fairy Jinghuan looked down on Great Luo Immortals, so she had been wandering all these years until she met Zhou Chen.

Although Zhou Chen was just a mortal.

But his Supreme Talent was enough to make her gamble.

Once Zhou Chen grew strong, she could benefit from his rise, even becoming the king of magical treasures, one of the strongest magical treasures in the world.

“You have good judgment!”

Zhou Chen nodded in satisfaction.

He discovered that although Fairy Jinghuan was just the spirit of a magical treasure, her cultivation was extraordinary, likely comparable to a Golden Immortal.

Her strength and defense were exceptional…

“Ten percent power!”

Zhou Chen gathered all his strength, unleashing an unparalleled divine ability, his power concentrated at a single point:
“Break for me!”
