Chapter 231: Immortal II Perfection
The essence was surging, the Taoist rhyme was rich, and the qi and blood turned into wolf smoke that soared into the sky, condensing into countless scenes of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing in the void.

After cultivating the fifth type of Wheel Sea Strange Phenomenon Zhoutian Star Diagram on the Sky Viewing Platform and refining the power of the Zhoutian Stars, Li Fa's power increased dramatically, and his Taoism soared. Finally, he could no longer suppress his own cultivation and directly broke through the bottleneck and ascended to the ninth small step of the second level of Immortal.

However, his physical strength did not increase as rapidly as his cultivation level, and only increased by less than half a percent.

Li Zhi could feel that as long as his cultivation was still within the second level of the Immortal Realm, the cultivation of his physical body would become increasingly difficult, and he would never be able to cultivate his physical body to a strength comparable to that of a saint.

In fact, it is normal to think about it. The barriers of the holy path do not only refer to the practice of the Tao, but are barriers that exist in all aspects.

Although there is only one step between a saint and a great king, there is a huge and insurmountable gap between them.

In normal times, if out of a hundred cultivators who can cultivate to the Great King level, three or five of them can eventually become saints, it is already something worth repeatedly promoting.

Li Zhi wanted to transform his physical body into a holy body in advance, at least after he entered the realm of king.

This time, he used the stars shining in the blue sky as the foundation, the Taixuan Sect's Starry Avenue as the medium, the Four Spirits of Heaven as the skeleton, the star map in the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin as the filling, and the power of the Zhoutian stars brought by the Wangkong Terrace as the brush and ink, and painted a splendid picture of the Zhoutian stars.

It had a far greater impact on him than the first four kinds of wheel sea phenomena he had cultivated.

The process of opening up the strange phenomenon of the Wheel Sea is like a difficult journey of cultivation. It becomes more and more difficult in the later stages. Just like in spiritual practice, breaking through a small realm in the early stage and breaking through a small realm in the later stage will have a huge impact on the strength of the cultivator.

It is like the huge difference in strength between the cultivators at the 28th and 29th level of the Immortal Realm, and the cultivators at the 8th and 9th level of the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

The same is true for the opening of the wheel sea phenomenon.

Theoretically, almost all cultivators can cultivate ten kinds of strange phenomena based on their own Wheel Sea Secret Realm.

However, for most cultivators, cultivating one wheel sea phenomenon is already the pinnacle.

Just like the cultivators in the chaotic ancient times, in the cave heaven realm, the more powerful the talent of the cultivator, the more cave heavens he can open up.

For an average cultivator, opening up four or five caves in the sky is already the limit, while opening up ten caves in the sky is the standard for an unparalleled genius.

The blood of the holy body allows them to naturally possess multiple top-level wheel sea visions.

This means that as long as one has sufficient qualifications, any cultivator can cultivate multiple wheel sea phenomena through acquired efforts.

There is no iron rule that a cultivator can only cultivate one type of wheel sea phenomenon.

Moreover, the fact that the wheel sea visions of the holy body can be combined into one is enough to show that the wheel sea secret realm of ordinary cultivators is far from being developed to the extreme by them.

As more and more strange phenomena in the wheel sea were opened up, Li Zhi felt more and more strongly about this.

It seems that every time a new wheel sea phenomenon is opened, the body's potential is released a little more.

Moreover, Li Zhi had a vague feeling that he might not be able to open up the ten wheel sea phenomena according to the planned plan at the second level of immortality.

The more visions he opens, the stronger his Taoism will become. When his Taoism becomes strong enough, he will forcibly trigger a catastrophe that will lead to the destruction of his Taoism.

When the time comes, there will be no choice but to kill.

However, Li Zhi also knew that practicing the Wheel Sea Phenomenon was not something that could be done overnight.

The evolution of the five secret realms cannot be continued unless one attains enlightenment.

After truly evolving the five secret realms of the human body to the extreme, there is a chance to directly transcend the calamity of becoming an immortal.

Although the heaven and earth are incomplete and lack the laws of immortality, it does not hinder the continued evolution of the secret realm of the human body.

We will talk about the future in the future. Now that Li Zhi has cultivated the fifth wheel sea phenomenon, the Zhoutian Star Map, it is already full of various magical powers.

It is not only a star map, but also a super array and a supercomputer.

The current capabilities of the Zhoutian Star Map are still far from being able to reproduce the Zhoutian Star Array.

However, the framework has been set up, and Li Zhi has also imprinted the basic laws of the "Mathematical Classics" on the star map to calculate the optimal trajectories of the various stars in the map. In the future, he will definitely be able to evolve the Zhoutian Star Array into something that is comparable to the Lingbao Array.

Lingbao Tianzun achieved enlightenment with the secret of the word "zu", and based on this, he evolved a formation diagram and forged four killing swords, almost possessing the supreme power to behead gods and immortals.

Li Zhi also has the ambition to evolve the Zhoutian Star Array to a level comparable to the Lingbao Killing Array.

Since the Zhu Xian Sword Formation was reappeared by Lingbao Tianzun, it is not surprising that the Zhoutian Star Formation was reappeared by Li Zhi.

At that time, the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram will be used to suppress the center of the formation, the Void Immortal Gold Stele will be used as the central processor of the formation, and the four golden sticks will be used as ports for power output.

Looking across the heavens, who can break this formation?
Li Zhi couldn't imagine what kind of power the Zhoutian Xingdou Array would possess when it evolved to its extreme.

Perhaps he really has the ability to use this formation to kill the perfect emperor supreme?
However, these are all things of the future, and all those thoughts only flashed through his mind. What he has to deal with now is the heavenly calamity.

The power of this heavenly tribulation was unusually great, almost comparable to the intensity of the heavenly tribulation encountered when breaking through a great realm.

With Li Zhi's current level of Taoism and foundation, he needs to go all out to deal with the heavenly calamity in order to avoid being hurt by it.

Above the sky, amid the endless sea of ​​thunder, the thunder pool that was completely constructed by the laws of thunder and lightning and the power of thunder has more than doubled in size than before.

The power of the divine thunder of heavenly tribulation bred by the thunder pool of law has become even more terrifying, and even the thunder pool is filled with the aura of chaos, as if a real divine thunder of chaos is being bred in the thunder pool.

Every bolt of heavenly thunder pouring out from the thunder pool almost possesses the power of a king. An ordinary powerful being would probably not be able to withstand even one bolt of heavenly thunder and would be directly struck into ashes by it.

Li Zhi struggled to cross the sea of ​​thunder and could not even get close to the thunder pool like before.

It seemed that his previous repeated contact with the Thunder Pool had caused the heavenly tribulation to produce a stress response, directly increasing the power of the Thunder Pool to a level beyond his limit.

A mountain range eight thousand miles away from Wangkong City also suffered the disaster. It was shattered by the terrifying power of heavenly thunder, and the mountain range was directly turned into a rocky beach.

The powerful men who followed from Wangkong City watched Li Zhi transcending the tribulation from afar, all of them showing expressions of shock.

The power of the heavenly calamity is truly terrifying.

They had never seen such a horrific thunder tribulation in their lives.

Is this still the thunder tribulation that a great being is enduring? Is it really not a king who is enduring the tribulation?

The terrifying aura of calamity made them dare not get close, for fear of being implicated by the heavenly calamity.

Under the horrifying attack of thousands of divine thunders, Li Zhi's entire body emitted a dazzling light, and he continued to fight against the divine thunders of heavenly tribulation.

It was like a god walking out of a thunderstorm.

The horrifying calamity lasted for half a day before it gradually weakened, as if it was coming to an end.

Li Zhi also began to absorb and exhale the essence from all directions.

The essence of heaven and earth within a thousand miles seemed to be unable to keep up with his intake and output speed, and the essence became thin, directly causing the essence from other places to flow back.

A huge funnel of essence and energy was formed.

The clouds in the sky were pulled apart, forming a gigantic cloud tornado tens of thousands of feet high.

Such a huge phenomenon of heaven and earth was even seen by the monks in Wangkong City eight thousand miles away.

Many monks flew directly towards this side.

Within the huge cloud tornado, the sea of ​​heavenly thunder did not disappear.

Instead, it erupted again because Li Zhi sacrificed the five great instruments of Tao in his body.

Let the magic weapon also survive the tribulation.

Li Zhi even threw the five instruments of Tao directly into the thunder pool, as if to let them undergo the cleansing of the most terrifying heavenly thunder liquid.

"Boom!"

The Thunder Pool was boiling like an oil pan, and the five great instruments of the Dao were like food fried in the oil pan, constantly emitting all kinds of mysterious sounds.

This "explosion" process lasted for two hours, and as the lightning liquid in the thunder pool gradually calmed down, Li Zhi, who had recovered his energy, suddenly moved.

He walked towards the sky with the divine thunder under his feet, his aura surging with every step. When he arrived next to the thunder pool, he seemed to have entered an incredible magical state.

Then he gathered all his magical powers and skills and punched the pool of thunder of laws.

"null!"

There was a sudden explosion that resounded through the sky.

Then the terrifying shock wave directly dispersed the huge white cloud tornado, and the sky and the earth became clear.

However, above the sky where the thunder pool was originally located, a mysterious sea of ​​clouds with laws only twenty to thirty acres in size appeared. It was formed by the laws after the thunder pool was broken, and was filled with the most original rules and order of heaven and earth.

Countless forces of laws continuously dissipated from the sea of ​​law clouds, triggering a terrifying and violent sky thunder that seemed to be able to strangle all living beings.

However, Li Zhi's five great instruments of the Tao rushed into the sea of ​​clouds of laws without fear, and began to frantically devour the power of the laws of the origin of heaven and earth.

This is the method that Li Zhi can use to the maximum extent possible to strengthen the instrument of the Tao based on the characteristics of the heavenly tribulation he has endured.

The materials of the five great instruments of the Dao are extraordinary and can fully withstand such a violent devouring speed. Each of them has the potential to become an instrument embryo of an ultimate weapon.

In the process of devouring the sea of ​​clouds of laws, the "Tao" and "principles" intertwined within them became more and more mysterious.

The secret of the word "bing" is indeed worthy of being the supreme secret technique for forging and raising soldiers. Although the five great Taoist weapons he forged are not the only immortal weapons, they should not be underestimated.

After Li Zhi used the five great Taoist artifacts to absorb all the remaining power of laws after the thunder pool was shattered.

Those who were watching Li Zhi transcending the tribulation from a distance also started talking about it.

"Did Taoist Li enter the legendary state of eternal divine prohibition at the moment he shattered the heavenly calamity just now?" The powerful human had his eyes wide open like cows and his mouth opened as wide as if a fist could be stuffed in. He looked at Li Zhi in disbelief, his mind still constantly recalling the scene where Li Zhi shattered the pool of thunder of laws with one punch.

"There is no mistake. Taoist Li definitely triggered the Eternal Divine Forbidden Realm at that moment. It is a forbidden realm where only the Great Emperor can reside in according to legend. Any cultivator who can trigger the Divine Forbidden Realm at the second level of Immortal will achieve incredible levels in the future. Taoist Li is definitely a piece of real gold, with the genuine qualities of a Great Emperor." The old patriarch of the Crane Clan had shining eyes, and he wished he could run to hug Li Zhi's thighs right now.

"If people knew that Taoist Li could actually trigger the legendary forbidden area of ​​the gods, I'm afraid those ancient kings would be unable to sit still, right?" The powerful old rhinoceros of the demon clan said with a dazed look on his face.

“This matter must not be spread outside. What Taoist Changshou needs most now is time to grow. If he is given another hundred years, those ancient kings in the Northern Territory may not even have the qualifications to stand and speak in front of Taoist Li. They are all delicacies on the plate, lambs to be slaughtered.” The old patriarch of the Crane Clan said to the two great men beside him with a serious face.

"Don't worry, old crane. When faced with such major issues, we can still distinguish the importance of each one." said the old rhino.

With the birth of ancient creatures, not only the human race in the Eastern Wasteland felt under great pressure, but the demon race in the Eastern Wasteland felt the same.

If we only talk about the territories occupied by the human and demon races, in fact, the territory occupied by the Eastern Wilderness demon race is much more vast than the territory occupied by the Eastern Wilderness human race.

The human race felt the pressure from the ancient creatures, and so did the demon race.

However, the difference between the demon race and the ancient creatures is not as big as the difference between humans and the ancient creatures.

Therefore, as ancient creatures gradually revived in the Northern Territory, most of the pressure was borne by the human forces in the Eastern Wilderness.

As the sun set, the disaster clouds in the sky completely disappeared.

The five great instruments of the Tao completely devoured the last bit of the power of the law, and then returned to Li Zhi's body.

Then, Li Zhi appeared directly in front of the three powerful men thousands of miles away.

As for the monks who came from other directions, Li Zhi had no intention of meeting them.

"Thank you very much, Brother He, for protecting me. How about I find a place for you three to have a cup of tea?"

Then, Li Zhi waved his hand and released a pavilion, which was located directly next to a stream three miles away. The four maids also appeared in the pavilion at the same time.

Without Li Zhi's instructions, they started to get busy.

Jade chairs, small red clay stove, jade tea sets, Wudao tea, and water from the sacred spring.

Then four peerless beauties brewed tea, and the brewed enlightenment tea exuded an aroma that uplifted the soul.

Looking at the five pieces of Enlightenment Tea in the Jade Teapot, the old chief of the Crane Clan said with emotion: "For two consecutive years, not a single piece of Enlightenment Tea has flown out of the Immortal Mountain. Now I can taste the Enlightenment Tea here, Taoist Priest. It is really a treat."

For two consecutive years, not a single piece of enlightenment tea leaf has flown out of the Immortal Mountain. In fact, many cultivators have been discussing privately whether something unexpected has happened in the Immortal Mountain and that there will be no more enlightenment tea leaves from now on.

Therefore, the price of Wudao tea on the market skyrocketed three times, and it was even impossible to buy it even if you had money.

The few teahouses that used to serve Wudao tea no longer sell it to the public.

"I was lucky enough to collect a few pieces of enlightenment tea. This time, not only did I master the secret technique, but I also survived the thunder tribulation. I should use this tea to celebrate." Li Zhi said with a smile.

Then Li Zhi invited them to sit in the pavilion.

After brewing the enlightenment tea, the four daughters of Meng Zhang quietly left the pavilion.

Let’s not disturb the four powerful ones from their next turn.

The powerful human and the old rhinoceros from the demon race looked at the four maids beside Li Zhi, and at the same time thought of the various rumors about Li Zhi.

I couldn't help but make a judgment in my mind, "This Taoist Priest Li doesn't seem to be a peerless genius who is difficult to deal with."

At the same time, their fear of Li Zhi suddenly decreased a lot.

After all, everyone has similar hobbies, which means that although Li Zhi is powerful, he is not immune to worldly affairs. He is not the kind of aloof person who is high and mighty and untainted by worldly affairs.

After they made a judgment in their hearts, the content of the conversation became much more harmonious.

Sure enough, the content of the subsequent conversation directly verified their guess.

Li Zhi is no different from them. He also likes pleasure and likes all kinds of fine wine, delicious food and beautiful women.

After drinking Li Zhi's enlightenment tea, the powerful human and the old rhinoceros of the demon race all expressed that they would treat Li Zhi well in the future and let him enjoy the top-level service that the powerful people in the Yifan Central Region could enjoy.

Seeing the four people's conversation becoming more and more obscene, the four women who left the pavilion felt a little unbelievable.

The younger sister Dongqing whispered to the second sister Hongye and asked, "Second sister, why would the master be talking about those things with those three old guys?"

"Qing'er, the master doesn't talk to them about wine, sex, money and power, so what do you think the master wants to talk to them about?" Hongye asked back.

"Shouldn't we drink tea and discuss Taoism? The master's cultivation has greatly improved, and now is the time to officially demonstrate his Taoism." Dong Qing said.

"Qing'er, you are still too young. With the master's talent and ability, how can they, who have exhausted their potential, be comparable to him? They are not worthy of discussing Taoism with the master." Hongye said.

"You were born one hour earlier than me. How can I be young?" Dong Qing said with a sneer.

In Dongqing's heart, Li Zhi should not make friends with these ordinary powerful people. Only those world-famous geniuses are worthy of Li Zhi's enlightenment tea party.

It is said that a true dragon does not dance with fish and turtles, and a phoenix does not land among birds.

Xia Li at the side also interrupted and said, "Qing'er, do you know the legend about the Wu Shi Emperor?"

Dong Qing shook his head and said, "What does the legend of the Wu Shi Emperor have to do with the master?"

Xia Li smiled and said, "Have you ever heard of a saying that it is better to fight for the Great Saint Body than to never see Wu Shi."

Dong Qing nodded and said, "I have heard of it. It is said that this sentence describing the power of Emperor Wu Shi came from the Heavenly Demon Palace."

Xia Li said: "Emperor Wu Shi is so powerful, but he still needs the demon kings of the Heavenly Demon Palace to show his reputation in the secular world. You said that the master has unlimited potential and unfathomable strength. Will he spread his reputation in the secular world in the future? And given the master's personality, do you think the master will not care about his face and personally publicize his strength to others?"

Dong Qing suddenly realized and said, "I understand. The master invited them to tea this time to win them over. When the master becomes powerful in the future, they will automatically become the ones who spread the master's name."

"It seems you are not stupid."
