Chapter 297: Queen Wa's Immortal Realm

“It’s actually an independent little world.”

After carefully observing the patterns on the mysterious clay tablet, Li Zhi and Ye Fan made their judgment almost at the same time.

However, both of them looked uneasy, as if their independent little world was full of dangers.

"Dad, Uncle Ye, can we go in?" Li Xianer asked.

"You can go in, of course. But it's not easy to unlock the restrictions on the stone slab. Although the power of the restrictions has been weakened to the extreme due to the drying up of the essence of heaven and earth, this level of Dao pattern may be the protective Dao pattern left by the ancient emperor."

Ye Fan, who has been hanging out with the Black Emperor for many years, has a very high level of Taoist pattern formations. After observing carefully for a while, he determined the level of the restriction.

"Isn't that the best time for us to enter? If the essence of heaven and earth is restored in the future and the Great Dao returns, the power of the Dao pattern restrictions here will be restored. We will have no chance to enter again." Li Xian'er said with her eyes lighting up.

Treasure hunting and exploring mysteries, this kind of environment where the essence of heaven and earth is dried up is their favorite.

The drying up of the essence of heaven and earth will cause all Dao patterns that rely on the essence and the Great Dao to lose their lethality. For young cultivators, their sense of security will surge.

After observing for a while, Li Zhi said to Li Xian'er, "Xian'er, it's time to use your archaeological expertise."

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan also wanted to see Li Xian'er's level, so he said: "Don't worry about insufficient mana, Uncle Ye will provide you with an endless supply of mana."

Afterwards, Ye Fan bestowed a powerful holy body magic power on Li Xianer, allowing Li Xianer to exert strength comparable to that of a cultivator in the Four Extreme Secret Realms.

Ye Fan learned this method from the Crocodile Ancestor when he was fighting with Li Xiaoman.

With Ye Fan providing an endless supply of mana, Li Xianer instantly felt like she could even poke a hole in the sky.

"Dad, Uncle Ye, you just have to wait and see what I will do next." Li Xianer said confidently.

Then, she placed the small flat shovel, brush, compass and other things in front of the clay tablet one by one.

Li Xianer even put on a white coat and a mask before starting to work.

Use a hand shovel to peel off the soil on the mud board little by little.

After seeing her performance, Ye Fan's mouth twitched slightly, and then he said to Li Zhi: "There is someone to take over."

"It's all thanks to the teacher's good teaching, and it has nothing to do with me." Li Zhi laughed.

With sufficient magical power, Li Xianer quickly peeled off the mud and revealed the real thing inside the clay tablet.

It was a mysterious clay figure only one foot tall.

The clay figure exudes a mysterious divine aura, but it seems that due to the drying up of the essence of heaven and earth, the divine aura has become extremely weak.

It seems like it will be scrapped at any time.

Li Zhi and Ye Fan, who were proficient in the secret of the word "weapon", could tell at a glance that the clay figure was not an ordinary clay figure, but a special weapon.

"Is this a forbidden weapon refined by a powerful emperor?" Ye Fan said.

“Even if it’s not a forbidden weapon refined by a great emperor, it’s definitely a forbidden weapon refined by a quasi-emperor.” Li Zhi nodded.

After half a day, Li Xianer dug out ten clay figures of different shapes from the clay tablet.

Looking at the clay figures, Li Zhi and Ye Fan almost simultaneously recalled the legend about Nuwa and the Ten Gods recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

"Classic of Mountains and Seas: Great Wilderness West Classic": "There are ten gods named Nuwa's intestines, who transformed into gods and lived in the wilderness of Li Guang, crossing the road."

This means that after Nuwa died, her intestines turned into ten guardian gods, guarding the vast wilderness in the west.

After ten clay figures were cleared out of the clay tablet, a Bagua formation pattern was left on the ground.

After studying it, Ye Fan said, "This is a teleportation array."

"Do you want to go in and take a look?" Li Zhi asked.

Ye Fan nodded and said: "Since we have come here, there is no need to retreat."

Afterwards, he directly took out the Immortal Treasure Map, protected Li Xian'er and Xiaosong, and activated the teleportation array.

After a dizzying spin, they came to a vast world.

Ye Fan’s divine consciousness cannot reach the end of the world.

Moreover, Ye Fan discovered that the essence of heaven and earth in this world was even thinner than that in the outside world, but the heaven and earth were filled with a strange force of the avenue, as if it had a force that made people's bodies full of vitality.

At the same time, Ye Fan also discovered that the sky he saw when he looked up seemed to be no different from the sky he saw outside.

Even the sun, moon and stars are exactly the same.

It was as if I had not arrived at an independent little world, but rather a Taoist temple hidden by a formation barrier.

However, they can still distinguish between the real small world and the world hidden by formations.

The place where they settled was on the top of a sacred mountain that towered into the clouds.

There was thick snow under my feet, and beneath the snow was solid ice.

And inside the solid ice, there is a temple that is completely frozen by ice.

Ye Fan used his divine eyes to see through the layer of ice and saw clearly the words on the plaque hanging in front of the temple.

"Our Lady Palace." Three characters written in ancient divine patterns.

"Have we arrived at the Great Emperor's Dojo?" Ye Fan said.

Xiaosong ran around the top of the mountain curiously.

Li Xianer even took out a huge astronomical telescope from her treasure bag and observed the mountains and rivers in the distance.

"There should be no cultivators here. Let's go to where there are living beings." Li Zhi said directly after observing the surrounding environment.

"Dad, there is a human tribe over there." Li Xianer saw traces of human activities by a big river in the east.

It seems to be still in the primitive society period.

"Let me take a look at the size of this world first." After saying that, Ye Fan took off into the air, stepped on the secret of the word "Xing", and then disappeared into the sky.

After a while, Ye Fan returned to the top of the mountain and said, "This world is only 10,000 miles in radius. It is high in the west and low in the east. There are two big rivers running through the whole world. It is surrounded by the sea. There are ten mortal tribes scattered all over the world."

Then they came to the mortal tribe to find out the situation.

Something strange happened.

Although there is no essence of heaven and earth, the mortals here are all strong and healthy, and some are still strong and powerful even when they are over a hundred years old.

"In ancient times, people lived to be a hundred years old and were still active."

After seeing those mortals, Li Zhi and Ye Fan had the same thought in their minds.

Each mortal tribe worships a god, similar to the ten clay figures guarding the teleportation array.

Moreover, those mortal tribes had neither written heritage nor martial arts inheritance, only some rudimentary martial arts that they had figured out on their own.

There is simply nothing they want.

In the end, Li Zhi and his companions did not disturb those mortals.

Instead, they returned to the mountain top where they landed when they came in.

After Ye Fan used his magic power to melt the ice and snow on the top of the mountain, a simple Notre Dame Palace appeared before them.

The Notre Dame Palace has no protective patterns, so they can enter safely.

In the small square in front of the temple, there is a Bagua pattern carved on the stone, which seems to be a teleportation array to leave this world. Enter the Notre Dame Palace.

They saw a statue of Nuwa.

There is a particularly comfortable atmosphere emanating from the statue.

On the cushion under the statue, there is a mysterious colorful Taoist bone.

It seemed to be the skull left behind by a powerful phoenix after it became a Taoist, faintly emitting the aura of great sage-level laws.

However, that breath became extremely weak, as if it was because the time of transformation was too long, so long that the essence of the Great Sage's bones was about to dissipate.

Ye Fan waved his hand and took the Dao bone in his hand. After observing it for a while, he said: "The laws and essence inside are almost dissipated, but there is a special divine power flowing inside. After nurturing it with magic power for a period of time, perhaps a good secret treasure can be refined."

Afterwards, he gave the bone of transformation to Li Xianer.

Then, Ye Fan and Li Zhi began to explore all traces of this Notre Dame Palace.

Finally in the back hall, they saw a picture engraved on a stone tablet.

According to the content on the stone carvings, this world is called the Wahuang Changsheng Realm.

It is a place specially opened up by the Great Empress Nuwa to house the perfect humans she created.

All the people living here are free from disease and disaster and can die of old age.

Apart from this, there seems to be no other purpose.

But neither Ye Fan nor Li Zhi believed that the Great Empress Nuwa would specially open up a small world for mortals to reproduce and thrive here.

Afterwards, they returned to the human tribe in this world.

But after observing the bloodlines of those mortals up close, they fell silent.

The mortal blood here is so pure that it is hard to believe that they are real people.

Even the genetic fragments are very different from those of other humans living on Earth.

It can even cause reproductive isolation from humans outside.

However, neither Ye Fan nor Li Zhi found anything inhuman about them. They were too perfect from the inside out.

As if they were real human beings.

The other humans on Earth are hybrids whose bloodlines have been polluted by all the spirits of heaven and earth.

This discovery filled Li Zhi and Ye Fan's hearts with confusion.

After they returned to the Notre Dame Palace, Li Xianer couldn't wait to ask, "Dad, Uncle Ye, what did you find this time?"

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "Nothing was found."

But Li Zhi thought for a long time and said, "Ye Fan, do you feel that this world is like a testing ground? The mortals here can actually live to the day of their death. Don't you find it strange?"

"Could it be that Goddess Nuwa wants to experiment with a special method of immortality in this world?" Ye Fan said with some surprise.

Li Zhi nodded and said, "It is very possible. Perhaps this Notre Dame Palace can help us solve the mystery in our hearts."

Just as Li Zhiye and Ye Fan fell into deep thought, Li Xianer's voice suddenly came from the hall.

"Dad, Uncle Ye, come and see." Li Xianer shouted in surprise.

At this moment, the base under the statue of Nuwa was dug up by Li Xianer.

There I saw a clay treasure chest.

Ye Fan stepped forward and said, "You guys step back first, I'll open the box."

Then, he covered the treasure chest with the Immortal Treasure Map.

After that, he carefully opened the treasure chest.

I thought there would be something good in it, but I didn't expect it to be just a line of words.

"The Taoist priest Changshou visited here. This world is a pure land created by the goddess Nuwa. Those who come later must not destroy this world. Otherwise, they will be punished by heaven." Ye Fan immediately read out the words.

Then he looked at Li Zhi with a serious expression.

When he was in Beidou, Li Zhi called himself "the Taoist of Longevity".

Now, it seems that I have met the real person, which makes people feel a bit amused.

And Li Zhi also understood where the Taoist Changshou got the one third of the "Wuhuang Sutra" that year.

It seems to have been obtained from this world of immortality of Queen Nuwa.

"The things here have been taken away by our seniors. Let's leave too." Li Zhi cleared his throat and said.

Li Xian'er also looked at Li Zhi with suspicion.

Afterwards, they put the clay treasure chest back far away, activated the teleportation array in front of the square and left.

After going out, Ye Fan took Xiaosong and said goodbye.

Only Li Zhi and his daughter were left in the half-collapsed Niangniang Temple in the ravine.

Li Xianer asked, "Dad, why do we have to stay here? Why don't we go explore another secret realm with Uncle Ye?"

Li Zhi asked back: "Xian'er, did you have a special feeling just now in the Wahuang Changsheng Realm?"

After thinking for a while, Li Xian'er said, "I feel like I feel a lot lighter."

Li Zhi said: "For the next three years, you will go to the Wahuang Changsheng Realm to practice."

Li Xian'er asked, "Why should I go there to practice?"

Li Zhi said: "Because that world is filled with the Wahuang Avenue. It can be said that the whole world is a "Wahuang Sutra."

"Dad, how did you know? Why can't I sense it?" Li Xianer asked.

Li Zhi said: "Because Dad's Taoism is much higher than yours. And he has also practiced a special ancient scripture."

Afterwards, Li Zhi taught Li Xianer the article "Insights from Heaven" written by Shi Huang.

Replacing all the ways of heaven and earth with the imperial way is an unheard of method.

If Li Zhi's guess is correct, all the laws of heaven and earth in the entire Wahuang Realm are actually evolved from the laws of the Wahuang Avenue.

The power of nature has reached an incredible level.

Only if the myriad laws of heaven and earth exist together can it be possible to ensure that the bloodlines of mortals living in that world will not degenerate.

Otherwise, as time goes by, their genes will definitely merge with the genes of other organisms in the natural environment of heaven and earth.

Just like humans in the outside world, although they all seem to be human, their blood origins are actually very different.

There are humans like Pangbo who have the blood of demons, and there are also some humans who have the blood of ancient creatures.

"Dad, if I practice there, will I have the chance to comprehend the entire "Nwa Sutra"? " Li Xianer said excitedly after reading the "Comprehension of God".

"In theory, it is possible, but it requires an extremely high level of comprehension from the cultivator, and in reality it is almost impossible." Li Zhi shook his head.

This is equivalent to observing the imperial army, and thus directly comprehending the entire imperial scripture.
