Chapter 302 Earth Trouble
The towering Kunlun Mountains are vast and magnificent, with thousands of dragons soaring into the sky, just like a fairyland.

The mountains are vast, the forests are wild and pristine, and the mythical beasts are howling, filling the air with the energy of the beginning of heaven and earth.

Practicing here is like arriving in the fairyland. Even if you don’t practice, you can prolong your life as long as you live here for a long time.

This place is close to immortals and its reputation is well-deserved.

Time flies, and several years have passed.

After entering Kunlun, Li Xianer finally experienced the happiness of the ancient cultivators.

Although practicing Taoism is hard, achieving it is beautiful. Especially when you can clearly feel the process of becoming stronger every day, it is an extremely happy thing.

In just a few years, Li Xianer's cultivation level has been raised from the initial entry into the Taoist Palace Secret Realm to the level of great perfection in the Taoist Palace.

Even if she wanted, she could be promoted to the Four Extreme Secret Realms at any time.

But Li Zhi did not allow her to be promoted here.

Starting from the Four Poles Secret Realm, cultivators must begin to comprehend the myriad principles of heaven and earth. This is a matter of the path and cannot be taken lightly.

Although Kunlun's environment is suitable for practicing, the laws of the universe here are subtly different from those in the outside universe.

Similar to the myriad laws of heaven and earth in the Beidou Life Forbidden Zone, neither is the myriad laws of the current universe.

To break into the four poles, one must engrave the first ray of power of the laws between heaven and earth in one's soul.

However, where to break through the four extremes and what kind of laws of heaven and earth to engrave are very important.

Only by engraving the power of the laws that best suit the times can you gain unexpected benefits in the future.

This is Li Zhi’s understanding of spiritual practice.

People in this world must practice the Dharma of this world in order to achieve the supreme fruit of the Tao.

Especially when practicing in the broken universe of Zhatian, if you miss a choice, it may affect your future upper limit.

Although, this seemingly subtle difference does not affect the monk's combat effectiveness.

But for enlightenment, this subtle difference is enough to determine whether a cultivator can seize the opportunity to break through the ceiling.

This is also the reason why almost all the great emperors and powerful men in history "only believe in this life and not in the afterlife."

Those monks who frequently seal themselves up and wait for opportunities have no future.

Every seal is like cutting off a complete human life.

The river of time keeps flowing, and the laws of nature will not stop evolving just because you seal yourself off.

Although the process of this evolution is very slow and subtle, it is these subtle changes that can cause flaws in the path of a cultivator that are imperceptible to ordinary people.

It's like building a building. Every time the construction is stopped, there will be some small problems in the connection between the floors.

It seems that it does not affect the construction of high-rise buildings, but it does affect the solidity of high-rise buildings.

A cultivator's frequent self-sealing will cause some slight deviations in the spiritual attainments accumulated over a period of time.

These seemingly minor deviations do not affect a monk's enlightenment.

But after achieving enlightenment, they will find that this flaw will affect their future.

For example, among all cultivators who successfully live through nine lifetimes to become a mortal immortal, the one with the greatest potential is the one who can become one.

The potential of a cultivator who becomes a mortal immortal through other means is limited.

The final achievement of the Ruthless Emperor could not reach Ye Fan's level because of this reason. Her nine lives in reverse were not pure and there were accidents.

This is Li Zhi’s understanding of the path of cultivators, and the relationship between time, and all the laws of heaven and earth.

This has nothing to do with reincarnation. It is simply a way of looking at this change from the perspective of the process of change of the Tao.

It is just like the resurrected ancient creatures in Beidou, who built the foundation in the ancient times and built the building in today's world. Because of the subtle changes in the building standards (the laws of heaven and earth), there will be a certain degree of disharmony between the foundation and the building.

However, the children left behind by the ancient emperors are different. They seem to be people from the ancient times, but in fact they did not forge the Tao in the ancient times. The foundation of the Tao was forged in this life.

Just like the prince of heaven, after being born in this world, his path of cultivation started from scratch, and there is no difference from other living beings in this world.

The moment a cultivator's foundation of Tao is completely formed when he achieves Dao-cutting and becomes a king.

If you want to make changes in the future, the difficulty will increase exponentially.

This is the reason why Li Zhi did not let Li Xianer take the most critical step in her life in Kunlun Immortality Land.

The level of a cultivator's future achievements is never determined by the strength of his initial combat power, but by the perfection and solidity of his Taoist foundation.

The solidity of one's foundation in Taoism is achieved by honing one's realm bit by bit during daily practice.

In Li Zhi's opinion, there are three extremely critical nodes that require special attention when cultivators are in the process of building the foundation of the great way.

The first node is to open up the sea of ​​suffering. It is also the node that is most easily overlooked. People think that opening up the sea of ​​suffering is the same, but it is not. There is an essential difference between the sea of ​​suffering opened up by the emperor for mortals and the sea of ​​suffering opened up by mortals themselves. This difference can be seen from the final achievements of Ye Fan's classmates.

The second key point is when the cultivator breaks through from the Dao Palace Secret Realm to the Four Extreme Secret Realm. After breaking through the Four Extreme Secret Realm, the cultivator can feel the breath of the laws of heaven and earth for the first time. At that moment, it is as if the origin of all things and the source of the Great Dao. The closer the Dao is to the origin of the Great Dao, the stronger the Dao seeds engraved in the cultivator's body will be. Ye Fan's ability to show a combat power that exceeds that of the former Saint Body has a lot to do with the Great Dao laws engraved in his body when he broke through the Four Extremes, which is the innate Dao diagram of the evolution of the origin of heaven and earth.

The third key node is the time of cutting the Dao. The foundation of the Dao formed at this time determines, to a certain extent, the upper limit level that a cultivator can reach in the future.

Of course, those monks who can break through various limits are not within the scope of discussion. Such monks cannot be described with ordinary concepts.

The reason why Li Zhi did not allow Li Xianer to break through the four poles on Earth was based on this reason.

She is not an outlier in the world of cultivation like Ye Fan's second disciple Xiaosong, who was born only a few years ago and was able to cultivate to the secret realm of the Taoist Palace while still being ignorant.

Apart from her special talents and abilities, Li Xianer's aptitude in cultivation is actually not as good as those of the saints and saintesses selected from ordinary holy places in Beidou.

In the future, if you want to become a quasi-emperor, or even reach a higher level on the road to the great Dao.

It is necessary to forge a foundation of Tao that far exceeds that of cultivators with the same talents, so that the future path of the Tao can go deeper and further.

It would be best if one could be like Li Zhi and use various magical treasures to undergo nine transformations.

Li Zhi used this to make his qualifications leap to the top ranks in the world. Even compared with the Emperor's son, who had the best bloodline qualification in the world, his qualifications were not inferior at all.

Of course, Li Zhi's experience is full of various coincidences and is almost impossible to replicate.

However, during the foundation-building stage, every time you undergo a transformation, your aptitude for cultivation will be transformed imperceptibly.

This is why the vast majority of monks hope to be reborn.

However, the higher the level of cultivation, the more difficult it is to be reborn.

In the early stages of cultivation, there will not be much difference between one more or one less transformation in the foundation-building stage. However, after one has reached a high level of cultivation, this difference will gradually become apparent.

During the days of training in Kunlun, Li Xianer completed two complete transformations.

This is slightly different from the three times Li Zhi expected.

However, she was able to complete a total of four transformations when building her foundation, which was enough to make her comparable to the treatment enjoyed by the sons or daughters of saints in the top holy places in Beidou.

But Li Zhi was not very satisfied with this.

After four transformations, Li Xianer's aptitude is only comparable to that of an ordinary divine body, and has not yet reached the level of a divine king body.

He planned to wait until Li Xian'er went to Beidou, and then use the liquid of the Divine Phoenix Immortality Elixir to perform a final transformation for her during her foundation-building period, which would be like a rebirth.

Then let her break through to the Four Extremes Secret Realm.

To this end, Li Xian'er had to hone her foundation as much as possible in the cruel environment of the Earth, and even polish her Wheel Sea Secret Realm and Dao Palace Secret Realm by comprehending different scriptures of the Great Emperor.

As for whether the long period of polishing her foundation would cause her to fall behind in her cultivation, Li Zhi was not worried at all.

After entering the Four Poles Secret Realm, the practice mainly depends on enlightenment. If one has a strong understanding, the speed of advancement will not be slow at all.

Most of the peerless geniuses in the Eastern Wilds stayed in the two secret realms of Lunhai and Dao Palace for quite a while.

Some people even stayed in these two realms for nearly twenty years.

But after breaking through to the Four Extremes Secret Realm, their cultivation began to advance by leaps and bounds, just like riding a rocket. In just 20 to 30 years, they were able to break through the Four Extremes Secret Realm, the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, and the Immortal Platform Secret Realm, becoming the top power of the second level of the Immortal Realm, and some people were even able to touch the level of the Way of Slashing.

The Holy Son Yaoguang, Ji Haoyue, Yan Ruyu and other geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness are all like this.

They were able to break through from the Four Extremes Secret Realm to the level of the King of Slashing Dao in just twenty to thirty years. Although this was due to the changes in the heaven and earth, it was also inevitably related to the solid foundation they had laid.

Otherwise, according to the common sense that the higher the level of cultivation, the longer it takes to cultivate, cultivation in the Four Extremes Secret Realm would take 10 to 20 years. Wouldn't it take a hundred years to cultivate to the Xiantai Secret Realm in the future?

But in fact this is not the case.

Their promotion speed seems very unreasonable, but it actually happened.

This is the effect of the peerless geniuses focusing on polishing their foundation. Otherwise, with their talents, their cultivation speed would not be slower than that of Northern Emperor Wang Teng’s younger brother.

Therefore, Li Zhi asked Li Xianer to polish her foundation as much as possible, not to waste time, but to prepare for the future.

Li Xian'er possessed the wordless heavenly book made of divine purple gold, which was like carrying an ancient tea tree for enlightenment. She would never have any shortcomings or weaknesses in enlightenment.

As long as her physical foundation is solid enough and her aptitude is strong enough, after going to Beidou in the future, improving her realm will be as easy as eating and drinking.

Therefore, after his cultivation broke through to the Great Perfection of Dao Palace, Li Xianer began to focus on tempering his body.

Li Zhi even taught Li Xianer the "Red Dust Tribulation" body-building technique he created to temper the body.

At the same time, in the past few years, Li Zhi also used the God-killing Bug to refine a jar of Golden Body Liquid, which was just suitable for Li Xianer to use to build her foundation.

Even if she cannot strengthen her physical body to the level of a holy body, she can at least strengthen it to the level of a god king body.

Now, after observing Li Xianer's transformation, Li Zhi has figured out what's going on with her physique.

Of course, it is not the "innate tomb-robbing holy body" as joked.

Rather, it is a special physique that has an extremely keen sense of the breath of life and death and reincarnation.

Li Zhi even suspected at one point that if Li Xian'er passed away in the future, as long as her body did not turn into Taoism, she could be buried in any place with strong yin energy. Within a few years, the seal of reincarnation would form in her body.

There is no need to go through long years of accumulation like those ancient emperors buried on the earth to form the mark of reincarnation in their bodies.

It can even be like Emperor Huang Tian. As long as the soul has experienced the trials of birth, old age, sickness and death, the body will naturally form the mark of reincarnation.

Li Zhi temporarily named this physique the innate reincarnation body.

As for whether it is accurate or not, Li Zhi is not sure.

Because he had never heard of this kind of physique. The ancient star of Beidou was called the Emperor Burial Star, and it gathered almost all the information about special physiques in the universe, but Li Zhi had never heard of this strange physique.

After Li Xianer's practice got on the right track, Li Zhi also found a lot of fighting targets for her.

Although there are no cultivators in Kunlun Mountain, there are a large number of ancient beasts living there.

The entire immortal vein was divided into countless relatively independent small areas by a peerless formation.

Although the power of the Kunlun Immortal Formation is unprecedented and can even make a quasi-emperor die in regret, it is impossible for such a vast mountain and river to be filled with deadly murderous intent.

Most areas are very safe.

As long as you don't run around and live in a safe area, there is almost no need to worry about your life.

Those ancient beasts are the relics of the ancient times living in relatively independent and safe areas nearby.

Li Zhi spent a lot of effort to deduce a relatively safe passage and suppressed the ancient beast living there.

Then he turned them into Li Xianer's targets.

During this period, the beast-controlling runes were obtained from the Yuhua Ancestral Temple, which played a major role.

At this point, Li Xian'er no longer lacked opponents to fight besides her practice.

"Dad, can I go for a walk in that forest? I feel like there are caves left by ancient monks in that dragon vein."

After a day of hard training, Li Xianer could no longer suppress the restlessness in her heart and wanted to explore deep into Kunlun.

She has already traveled all over this area of ​​a thousand miles.

Even all the spiritual herbs in the area were picked by her.

Perhaps this is the charm of Kunlun.

Those who were lucky enough to survive and successfully enter Kunlun at the beginning all had a sense of crisis and only moved around in the safe area outside.

But after a long time, when his cultivation level had increased, he wanted to move around in a wider world, and then unknowingly broke into the range covered by the imperial formation, and was finally wiped out by the absolute murderous intent within the imperial formation.

"Don't even think about it. If you dare to have such a risky idea again, I will send you out of Kunlun immediately." Li Zhi, who was inside the stone dragon pendant, suddenly woke up and scolded sternly.

In order to prolong the existence of this incarnation as long as possible, he was asleep most of the time.

"If you don't want to go, then don't go. Why are you so mean to me?" Li Xian'er rarely showed her girlish playfulness. It seemed that practicing with Li Zhi not only transformed her body into a more perfect one, but even her soul became much younger.

She's like a little girl who lives a carefree life under the protection of her father.

Afterwards, she returned to the spirit pond beside the cave, sat directly on the white lotus and began to read the various books that Li Zhi had prepared for her in Beidou.

She read those classics as novels to relieve the boring time of cultivation. Polishing the body, condensing the divine power, reshaping the wheel sea and the Taoist palace, each of them is very hard and time-consuming and energy-consuming.

Only when reading can I get a moment of relaxation.

It has to be said that these classics greatly broadened her horizons and made up for Li Xianer's lack of knowledge in Taoist enlightenment.

And the mysterious white lotus under her seat has now been refined into a magic weapon.

Although the white lotus has grown to the level of a minor medicine king and has extraordinary medicinal effects, Li Xian'er does not intend to absorb and refine its medicinal power.

Instead, it was refined by Li Zhi into a living magic lotus platform.

Sitting on it to practice, one can be protected by a pure and peaceful energy, which protects the cultivator from being disturbed by the mundane energy.

That is to say, Li Zhi and Yan Ruyu had exchanged the complete "Green Lotus Emperor Scripture", otherwise they really didn't know how to refine the elixir into a living magical weapon that could grow independently.

at the same time.

Ye Fan also collected eight pieces of map fragments about Kunlun Immortal Land, and then brought Xiaosong to Kunlun Mountain.

When they arrived at the ancient formation in Kunlun Mountain, they saw the mark left by Li Zhi nearby.

Xiao Song said to Ye Fan in a childish voice: "Master, there is a mark left by Master Li here. Did Master Li and Sister Xian'er enter the Kunlun Immortal Land in advance?"

Ye Fan looked at the mark left by Li Zhi and said, "No wonder I haven't heard of Xiao Xian'er walking around in the past few years. It turns out that she was brought here by your Master Li to practice."

Ye Fan was not surprised at all that Li Zhi was able to enter Kunlun, the place where immortals could be found.

Afterwards, they bypassed the ancient magic circle and entered the Kunlun Fairy Mountain covered by the ancient magic circle.

Soon, Xiaosong met Li Xianer, who was sitting on the lotus platform and reading a book boredly in the outer area.

Then, Li Zhi reappeared, and together with Li Xianer, followed Ye Fan into the immortal land deep in Kunlun.

Afterwards, they saw traces of the ruthless emperor's visit in the depths of Kunlun, saw the great sage and the quasi-emperor who died in the imperial formation, and encountered a dragon cave that could give birth to holy spirits but had its fortune taken away by the Ninety-nine Dragon Mountain.

The precious medicines collected and precious minerals dug out along the way were countless.

The good fortune along the way was almost completely wasted by them.

Of course, Ye Fan also met Longma.

They even used the power of the innate Bagua map to temporarily walk a section around the safe road and obtain more elixirs and ores.

Finally, in the Kunlun Fairyland, they saw the White Tiger Immortal Elixir and the Emperor’s Cauldron of the Source of All Things.

Everyone collected some of the mysterious immortal liquid in the immortal pool.

Li Zhi even had a "friendly discussion" with the White Tiger Immortal Elixir and obtained nine drops of the White Tiger Immortal Elixir's medicinal blood.

Finally, Ye Fan took away the Source of All Things in the Immortal Pond, so that the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountain no longer absorbed the essence of the ancient star, but instead began to give back to the Earth.

As a result, the cultivation environment on Earth began to change.

Of course, this change cannot be achieved overnight and requires a long period of adaptation and change.

On the way back, they passed by the dragon cave that could give birth to the Holy Spirit again. Li Zhi suddenly said, "Ye Fan, I plan to bury the dragon clone in this dragon cave."

After saying this, the stone dragon pendant emerged from Li Zhihua's body.

Then the seal on the dragon pendant was released, and a pure dragon power emanated from the inside of the stone dragon.

"Have you made up your mind?" Ye Fan knew that one of Li Zhi's purposes of returning to Earth was to revive the dragon clone.

"Xian'er is now in your hands. When you return to Beidou, please take her with you. She will be able to grow faster in Beidou." Li Zhi said.

"Dad, I don't want to leave you." Li Xian'er's eyes were red, and she didn't want to be separated from Li Zhi.

"This is just Dad's incarnation. Xian'er, only if you follow your Uncle Ye to the Beidou Ancient Star, can we be truly reunited as father and daughter." Li Zhi wiped away Li Xian'er's tears and said.

Li Zhi had already explained everything that needed to be explained.

Finally, Li Xian'er reluctantly followed Ye Fan and left Kunlun, heading into the secular world to continue sharpening her foundation.

The foundation honed in a harsh environment will be relatively more solid.

After Ye Fan and the others left, Li Zhi entered the dragon cave and activated the Dao pattern for nurturing the holy spirit that was created by Emperor Yuhua and engraved on the stone dragon.

At the same time, the moment the incarnation's Dao pattern was activated, it completely dissipated under the impact of the laws of heaven and earth.
