BXBX NOVEL Chapter 483: 482
“Have you completed the system tasks and become the Human Emperor?”
The other Jiang Li scratched his head in embarrassment: “Yes, I’m also the Human Emperor, but I hardly interfere with matters. Currently, I am semi-retired. General Liu is responsible for handling affairs large and small. He refers to me as a leisure person, and I often call myself that.”
Jiang Li in leisure.
Jiang Li shook his head secretly. Despite not presiding over the Imperial Palace, as the Human Emperor, he set an example for all the powerhouses and often sought out unfair situations to rectify. He would consider the root of the issue to solve the problem.
As such, General Liu wouldn’t refer to him as just a leisure person.
If he were to be addressed as a leisure person by General Liu, it would probably mean that he relies solely on martial force to fend off the Heavenly Demon, and has not fulfilled the responsibilities of the Human Emperor.
A group of familiar female cultivators, having dressed, curiously looked at the newly appeared Jiang Li.
Old Buddha Sumi did not go around preaching about the concept of the parallel world, so only Yu Yin guessed that this new Jiang Li came from a parallel world.
“White Snow Spirit… Bai Xuelin, right. In my world, the White Marsh Emperor has just distinguished his Kylin identity and hasn’t even given a name to his avatar yet.”
The White Snow Spirit of this world completed the purification of the White Marsh Blood five hundred years earlier.
“Where exactly do you come from?” Bai Xuelin asked. The inherited memories of the White Marsh Blood did not mention the concept of a parallel universe.
“It’s a parallel world. My world is almost identical to yours. My world also has nine continents and the Immortal Realm, just like yours. The biggest difference between our two parallel worlds is probably him and me.”
“You can consider it to be due to a series of issues such as character and extraordinary encounters, leading to changes in the course of the entire world.”
“As for why he and I have different characters and experiences, well, I guess it’s a matter of probability. Some people are calm and peaceful, some are ruthless. Some like being independent, others like depending on external things. It’s unpredictable, a person’s character is not definite.”
Jiang Li was stating his own conjecture.
“Pure Heart Saint Woman, Yu Yin, I didn’t expect that the ones I am familiar with are so different and all fell for him.”
Pure Heart Saint Woman was curious: “Then what are Yu Yin and I like in your world?”
“You are a little silly, cute, and naive, easily deceived.”
“Yu Yin is cold, hard-mouthed, not good at expressing herself. In truth, she also has a restless heart, it is just that she is good at hiding it. And with Bai Hongtu and I to set off against, she appears calm and composed.”
Pure Heart Saint Woman had a smile in her eyes: “Then my personality seems to be quite similar to the Pure Heart Saint Woman in your world.”
Yu Yin was not pleased with Jiang Li’s evaluation of her: “I am totally different. Whatever I feel, I say. I never speak harshly.”
“It can’t be that Pure Heart Saint Woman in your world also likes you?” Pure Heart Saint Woman found indescribable joy in her heart when she thought of Pure Heart Saint Women in countless parallel universes being entwined with Jiang Li.
Jiang Li corrected Pure Heart Saint Woman’s idea with seriousness: “Your logic is flawed. Like your affection for Jiang Li in leisure, it can’t be inferred that Pure Heart Saint Woman in my world would also like me.”
“By this reasoning, wouldn’t it mean you, Yu Yin, White Snow Spirit, and others all like me?”
Pure Heart Saint Woman thought about it and felt that what Jiang Li said made a lot of sense.
“Dream Pure, you actually also like him?”
Dream Pure’s cheeks turned slightly red, and she was embarrassed when this was pointed out.
Jiang Li felt that he and Jiang Li in leisure were quite different. Just by looking at the number of female cultivators in a confirmed relationship, this can be seen
He estimated that it was just a small part. Jiang Li suspected that perhaps there were still many female cultivators maintaining an ambiguous relationship with Jiang Li in leisure.
“When I first saw you and your, uh… celebrations, I thought that the difference between him and me was the desire, but after the fight, I realized that our major difference was the system…”
Seeing Jiang Li about to say the word “system”, Jiang Li quickly went over to cover Jiang Li’s mouth.
“Hey bro, mind if I call you bro? Let’s not talk about that here.”
Jiang Li nodded, avoided the crowd of women, and went to another place with Jiang Li in leisure.
“My dear brother, don’t you know that you can’t talk about the existence of the system to others?”
“I didn’t know that. Why can’t you speak about it?”
“I once wanted to confess my true feelings to Pure Heart Saint Woman and the others, and tell them about the existence of the system. But the system warned me that if I revealed the secret of the system, my soul would dissipate.”
Jiang Li had not heard the system’s warning before, and he found it amusing: “Do you think the system is powerful?”
“Powerful.” Jiang Li candidly answered. Without the system, he wouldn’t have reached where he is today.
“Given that the system is so powerful, why is it afraid of others knowing of its existence? Just like me, unless it’s for something, I won’t hide my identity. Identity is not something worth hiding.”
Jiang Li did not want to discuss the matter further: “Since both of us are Jiang Li, why is there such a huge disparity in strength?”
“Because my system activated five hundred years later.”
Jiang Li in leisure suddenly rose from his seat: “That’s impossible! Doesn’t it mean that you only got the system ten years ago? How can you become so powerful in just ten years!”
Jiang Li’s expression remained unchanged as he gently pressed down on Jiang Li in leisure’s shoulder, making him sit down.
“It’s not that I have become powerful in this decade, but I have always been this powerful.”
“The system is not the only way to become stronger.”
Jiang Li in leisure didn’t believe his words, thinking that he was unwilling to reveal his secrets to becoming a powerhouse.
Right, revealing one’s secrets to becoming stronger would shake the position of the strongest, which was against human nature. He could understand that.
“After my transmigration, the Jiang family bullied me everywhere. Without the system, I probably would have never been able to turn my situation around in the Jiang family.”
“Wouldn’t you leave home? What does the Jiang family have that you still hold dear? ”
Jiang Li didn’t understand why Jiang Li in leisure was so obstinate about staying with the Jiang family. If the Jiang family is bullying you and you can’t fight back, why not just leave the Jiang family?
Jiang Li in leisure was at a loss for words. It was easier said than done to leave and abandon the Jiang family. Even if the Jiang family bullied him, he had inherited the memories of his predecessors and understood the Jiang family. If he left the Jiang family, wouldn’t he be facing an unknown future?
“Without the system, how would I have been able to enter the Academy of the Great Zhou Dynasty Family?”
“No, I remember that the entrance examination for the academy was mostly about cultivating basic theories. Even the basic theories of cultivation can’t be learned well, so what’s the point of cultivating as an immortal? Does it all depend on the system providing points and pouring wisdom into my mind from above?”
Casually, Jiang Li spoke: “Of course, aren’t system rewards meant to make cultivation more convenient?”
Jiang Li continued: “And also the Heavenly Spiritual Root, it was subtle. The Five Elements Spiritual Root was displayed externally, and only when it reached Nascent Soul Stage could it be revealed. All thanks to the system, it allowed me to awaken the Heavenly Spiritual Root at the Golden Core Stage.”
“I had a bloody battle with someone at the Foundation Establishment Stage, and I burned my Spiritual Root, resulting in the premature awakening of the Heavenly Spiritual Root.” Jiang Li said carelessly, not thinking that the system was that important.
“What about the Infinite Daoist Body? The system helped me get the Infinite Daoist Body at the Divinity Transformation Stage, which kept the spiritual energy storage in my body longer than other Human Emperor candidates.”
Jiang Li nodded, acknowledging that the Infinite Daoist Body was of great help to him: “I also got the Infinite Daoist Body during the Divinity Transformation Stage, but through my own efforts.”
The Infinite Daoist Body is a kind of postnatal physique, allowing an individual’s spiritual energy storage to be several times more than that of the same rank, thereby prolonging the duration of battles.
However, once it reaches the Mahayana stage or becomes an immortal, the Infinite Daoist Body becomes irrelevant.
Don’t immortals still have a few methods to expand their immortal power storage?
