Xu Xian repeatedly assured him that he would protect the Taoist temple.
In his mind, it was only natural for the Heavenly Emperor to return to the Heavenly Court.
Perhaps after a while, the abbot will get bored and want to descend to the mortal realm again. How heartbroken he would be to find that this branch temple is no longer there.
"It's good that you have the intention. Do your best, but don't force yourself!"
Xiao Ning smiled calmly. Perhaps, by the time he returned, he wouldn't even know how much time had passed in this world. If Xu Xian didn't have a lifespan of tens of thousands of years, he probably wouldn't be able to wait for him to return again.
"Oh, right, there's one more thing. I left the last three volumes of the 'Qinghui Neijing Jue' in my room. You can pass them on as you see fit in the future. I also left some treasures and elixirs behind!"
Xiao Ning thought for a moment and then gave Xu Xian some instructions.
"Alright, I'm leaving!"
Without waiting for Xu Xian's reply, Xiao Ning silently ordered in his mind, "System, purchase a return card and use it immediately!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light suddenly appeared, enveloping Xiao Ning, and then disappeared completely in a flash of light.

A flash of white light appeared, and Xiao Ning's body materialized from nothing. He opened his eyes, looked around at his surroundings, and quickly remembered that he was in a villa in modern society.
An overwhelming divine sense swept out, surveying the entire Blue Star without restraint or scruples.
"The ordinary technological world... poses no danger to me whatsoever!"
A moment later, Xiao Ning withdrew his divine sense and muttered to himself.
Previously, when he was weak, he was very careful and dared not reveal the secret that he was a cultivator, for fear of being captured and dissected for research.
Now that his primordial spirit has been formed, he scanned the entire Blue Star world and discovered that the real world was indeed just an ordinary technological world, without ancient martial arts, national martial arts, superpowers, immortal cultivation, or genetic mutations.
Only then was Xiao Ning relieved.
The ordinary world is great!
He didn't want to have to be careful every time he returned from the instance world, fearing that someone would come knocking on his door.
Of course, it's both ordinary and extraordinary.
More than three months have passed since Xiao Ning last taught martial arts. It is now April 2021 in the Western calendar and March 2021 in the Chinese calendar!
More than three months later, countless martial artists were born on the land of China.
Of course, calling him a martial artist is an overstatement.
It can only be considered a basic introduction to martial arts.
With the "Xiao Family Martial Arts Manual: Thirty-Six Forms of Foundation Building" taught by Xiao Ning, many people have already entered the door through persistent and accumulated practice.
Even if you don't become a martial arts master, at least you can improve your health and prevent all kinds of diseases.
Xiao Ning's divine sense revealed that out of the 1.4 billion people in China, 143 people had mastered the Foundation Building Fist technique and developed internal energy. Ninety-nine percent of them were from the Chinese government or military, and only about ten were geniuses from the general public.
Of the 1,643,156 people nationwide who have mastered this boxing style to a minor degree, it is only about one in a thousand.
This style of boxing is balanced and peaceful. If you practice it to a high level of proficiency, you can be free from all diseases and improve your health!
If one masters this art, one can break through the limits of the human body, prolong life, and cultivate internal energy within the body, thus stepping into the gate of martial arts.
"There are over a hundred people! I thought there would only be ten or twenty. But then again, that makes sense, considering the population size, it's a ratio of one in a thousand!"
Xiao Ning got up and walked out of the room, pondering to himself.
Online, some people worry that this martial art will spread abroad, and that foreigners who learn it will not only be ungrateful but will also turn around and accuse it of originating from other countries.
Xiao Ning chuckled. Was the high-powered AI rice just for show?
Furthermore, different races have different meridian pathways. Apart from the descendants of Yan and Huang, people of other races would only waste their efforts if they obtained the secret manual of the fist technique through great difficulty, because they simply cannot learn it.
Standing on the terrace on the third floor of the villa, Xiao Ning stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the Daqingshan Yangtiangang behind him, but his face showed no joy.
In the past, Xiao Ning would have jumped for joy upon learning that so many people in the country had mastered the Foundation Building Fist.
Now that his realm is close to that of an immortal, his state of mind is naturally different. At this moment, however, he is completely calm and has no emotional fluctuations whatsoever.
Not only that, he also saw his parents, who had each formed their own families and were living their own happy lives.
I felt no hatred towards them whatsoever.
It's as if he has seen through the ways of the world and the meaning of life.
All that has passed is gone with the wind.
At this moment, a childlike, innocent smile appeared on Xiao Ning's face.
After a thousand thoughts swirled in his mind, he had made his decision.
With a thought, he silently said, "System, I want to purchase a random teleportation card!"
Are you sure you want to purchase the random teleportation card?
Yes, confirmed!
