Chapter 330: Leaving the Earthly World and Going to Heaven
The world of mortals is enchanting, the Big Dipper is prosperous, and ancient saints descend from outside the realm from time to time.
Eye-catching events are happening one after another.
The story of the immortal elixir appearing in Nanling has come to an end, and the matter of the ancient clan's search for the mysterious chaotic body has finally come to nothing after failing to find any results.
The Beidou monks are well-informed. If the elixir of immortality appeared in other star regions, it might cause long-term unrest, but if it appeared on the ancient Beidou star, it would be just a gust of wind.
After all, the elixir of immortality on the ancient Beidou star has been in short supply since ancient times, and everyone has long been accustomed to it.
Although not everyone can pick the magical medicine, as strong people, they more or less know where the elixir of immortality is.
Seeing that the major forces in Beidou had calmed down, the disciples brought by the ancient saints from outside the domain also calmed down.
It seemed that what happened in Nanling was an illusion, but the dead human saint was real.
Countless people were looking for Li Zhi's whereabouts, and even outside the Seven Star Dojo were filled with spies from various major forces.
However, Li Zhi was leisurely retreating in the Qishi Mansion.
Qishi Mansion lent him a Great Sage Cave as his temporary place of practice.
As Li Zhi practiced in seclusion, the sound of mysterious chanting could be heard throughout the cave, as if a god was gaining enlightenment there.
If you trace the source, you will be surprised to find that the mysterious chanting sound actually comes from Li Zhi's Taoist temple.
In Li Zhi's Taoist palace, the mysterious palace no longer existed, and the companion fairy tree cultivated by the "Innate Longevity Art" also disappeared without a trace.
The palace and the accompanying fairy trees seemed to have been refined and absorbed by the gods of the Taoist Palace.
Five gods full of Taoist spirit sat cross-legged and chanted scriptures in the Shenzang World where the power of the Five Directions Great Dao was surging.
At the intersection of the five worlds, the mysterious fairy tree that "ascended" from the secret realm of Lunhai exudes endless power of the avenue, as if it could attract all the ways of heaven and earth, nourishing the five gods.
And above the crown of the mysterious fairy tree, three mysterious Taoist cocoons are hanging.
Inside the Dao cocoon, there is a god sitting cross-legged, receiving nourishment from the power of the Dao provided by the Ten Thousand Daos and the Five Directions gods.
Once the three Taoist gods in the Taoist cocoon are born, their power will be even stronger than the gods transformed from the five Taoist palace gods, and they will possess earth-shattering and astonishing power.
Li Zhi's Taoist Palace secret realm is also gradually growing bigger and stronger during the gestation process of the Taoist cocoon.
I don’t know how much time has passed, but Li Zhi felt the perfect breath of the Taoist Palace and finally woke up from his state of enlightenment.
The moment he opened his eyes, two rays of bright divine light immediately shot out from his eyes.
The divine light directly penetrated the restrictions in the cave and came to the outside world.
In an instant, the divine light turned into two thick, colorful divine lights, rushing straight into the sky.
This is a strange phenomenon of spiritual practice that results from the perfection of the Great Dao and the astonishing power of the Dao.
Such terrifying phenomena of heaven and earth will only appear when those with the strongest talents attain enlightenment. It is also a phenomenon that will only appear when one’s comprehension of the great Dao reaches a very deep level.
Two colorful divine lights that reached the sky and the earth rose up from the depths of the Qi Shi Mansion, immediately attracting the attention of many disciples.
"What is that?" a student asked in confusion.
"It came from the direction of the cave of the Mansion Master and his companions. It should be the result of the successful cultivation of the seniors in the Qi Shi Mansion, and it is an extraordinary phenomenon of the great Dao." The knowledgeable student said affirmatively.
"I felt the breath of the origin of the five elements from the two five-colored divine lights." A young demon from the Peacock Clan said with shining eyes.
"Kong Sheng, it seems that there is a deep meaning behind grandpa sending us to Qi Shi Mansion to practice. There is indeed an ancient saint who practices the Five Elements in Qi Shi Mansion." Next to the young man from the demon clan, a heroic girl said with a little excitement.
"Then should we go and visit him?" Kong Sheng said eagerly.
"Of course we have to go. This is a rare opportunity. The senior must be in a good mood now that he has come out of retreat. If we ask for advice with an open mind, maybe the ancient sage will be so happy that he will start preaching. Not everyone has the chance to listen to the sermons of saints." A pure dragon aura was faintly rising from the girl's body, and it was obvious that she had a great background.
At the same time, on the various student peaks in Qishi Mansion, there are quite a few young people with similar ideas.
They all rushed towards the cave where the five-colored divine light rose.
But as soon as he stepped into the back mountain area, he saw Lin Daochen, one of the deputy palace masters, already standing on the ancient road leading to the sacred peak.
"Greetings to Vice Palace Master Lin." The students all bowed to Lin Daochen, who had already become a great king.
"You all go back. That senior will give a sermon in three days. Then, you can all go and listen to his lecture." Lin Daochen seemed to know why they came and spoke directly.
"Senior Lin, who is that senior who made the breakthrough? I sensed a breath that seemed to be the origin of the Five Elements." Kong Sheng asked cautiously. As a rising star of the East Wasteland Peacock Clan, Kong Sheng's talent even surpassed that of the Peacock King back then, and the Peacock Clan had high hopes for him.
"You will know when the time comes." Lin Daochen did not answer them but smiled.
Afterwards, the young students dispersed amid discussions.
Inside the cave, the current master of Qishi Mansion was sitting opposite Li Zhi, and he said with emotion: "Fellow Daoist Changshou, you are indeed a natural talent."
"Master, you are too kind. I have only tasted the sweetness of the revival of heaven and earth. I believe that you will soon be able to overcome the tribulation and become a saint." Li Zhi had no intention of looking down on the other party.
To be able to become the lord of the Qi Shi Mansion, his talent and comprehension must be top-notch. In just over thirty years, he has broken through from the level of a supreme power to the level of a semi-saint. It seems that becoming a saint should be no problem for him.
Maybe he has more potential than the old palace master and is more likely to become a great sage in the future.
"This time, on behalf of Qi Shi Mansion, I want to discuss something with you. Before you leave, can I give a sermon to the disciples in the mansion? Although the younger generation today is not as dazzling as your generation, except for the top few people, their average talent is even higher than your level back then." said the master of Qi Shi Mansion.
In fact, the real purpose of Qishi Mansion is to let Li Zhi leave behind a legacy.
After all, once you embark on the strongest ancient trial road, life and death are unpredictable. In the event of bloodshed outside the domain, it would be a good thing to leave a spark in Beidou.
Because Li Zhi is different from those cultivators with special physiques. Now he is just an ordinary body, but he has the talent and strength comparable to the ancient princes.
In the view of the top leaders of Qishi Mansion, Li Zhi's path of cultivation is undoubtedly more universal.
That’s why Li Zhi was invited to give a sermon.
Li Zhi naturally understood the intention of Qi Shi Mansion, but he did not refuse. It was not impossible to leave a legacy in Qi Shi Mansion.
Li Zhi did not hide his desire to treasure the ancient spiritual practice scripture he created.
Those who learn from me will live; those who imitate me will die.
This is the eternal truth on the path of cultivation.
Then, Li Zhi entrusted the mansion master to pick up Li Xianer and Jin Ming from the Seven Star Dojo in the southern region of the East Wilderness through the channels of the Qi Shi Mansion.
Before leaving Beidou, he still had some things to explain to his daughter and disciples.
The Lord of Qishi Mansion naturally agreed to this small request.
Half a day later, Li Xianer and Jin Ming appeared in front of Li Zhi.
"Dad, are you planning to leave Beidou and embark on the ancient trial road of the human race?" Li Xian'er vaguely guessed Li Zhi's future.
"Master, can you take me and Sister Xian'er with you?" Jin Ming still looked like a little girl of four or five years old, but her aura was countless times stronger than it was ten years ago, and her cultivation was only at the Dao Palace level. But in terms of strength, I'm afraid that even the great powers in the Xiantai Secret Realm would not dare to say that they could definitely beat her. Within her small body, there was a terrifying power that ordinary people could hardly imagine.
On the contrary, Li Xianer's cultivation level increased too fast, and she has actually become a second-level immortal.
"Xian'er, foundation is very important. Your cultivation level is increasing too fast. Don't try to break through the Dao within a hundred years. Use the various methods of consolidating the foundation that your father has collected to continuously consolidate your foundation." Li Zhi said seriously.
"A hundred years? Dad, isn't that too long? I feel I can become a king within twenty years." Li Xian'er said in surprise.
Li Zhi said: "Your innate foundation is weak. Although your father has used many methods to help you make up for your shortcomings, you have not undergone a complete transformation during your most important childhood. If you want to reach the end of the road to the great way in the future, you must constantly consolidate your foundation during the process of cultivation."
The effect of a cultivator building a foundation in his childhood is much better than the effect of building a foundation after he reaches adulthood.
Li Zhi also relied on the power of the ruthless emperor and the power of the semi-divine medicine to achieve rejuvenation, which allowed him to have his current talent and qualifications.
But Li Xian'er was different. She was already an adult when she embarked on the path of cultivation.
Although there were several subsequent transformations, the effect of the transformation after adulthood was far inferior to that of the transformation in childhood.
Today, Jin Ming is the best example.
Since she was not yet born, Li Zhi had nurtured her with various immortal treasures, and the richness of her life essence is far beyond that of Li Xian'er.
Using the same secret method and resources for transformation, Jin Ming's level of transformation is much deeper than Li Xian'er's.
Afterwards, Li Zhi took out the Chaos Mirror and pointed out the flaws of Li Xian'er and Jin Ming respectively.
Li Xianer's foundation is obviously several levels weaker than Jin Ming's.
Jin Ming's foundation is not far from the foundation of the chaotic body.
After completing the foundation-building stage of cultivation, her physical aptitude might be able to reach the level of a holy body or a hegemonic body. In other words, once her cultivation reaches the great perfection realm of the ninth heaven of the quasi-emperor, she will be able to challenge the emperor.
However, Li Xianer's foundation is only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary king body.
If you don't focus on consolidating your foundation, it's hard to say whether you can become a great sage in the future.
However, Li Xianer's practice is not entirely without shortcomings.
He sacrificed the Wordless Heavenly Book to refine it into a spiritual weapon, as if he was really carrying an ancient tea tree of enlightenment with him.
Although her physical foundation and the foundation of the Tao were slightly weak, the quantity and quality of the laws of heaven and earth that Li Xian'er had comprehended far exceeded those of ordinary second-level immortals. Even Li Zhi at that time could not compare to her.
Afterwards, Li Zhi took out the Coffin of Life and brought Li Xian'er and Jin Ming into the coffin.
After communicating with the human-shaped immortal medicine, Li Zhi finally borrowed three drops of the immortal medicine's origin immortal liquid emitting nine-color light from the human-shaped immortal medicine's body.
Afterwards, Li Zhi, a light and shadow incarnation condensed by the laws of the Great Dao, entered a drop of the original elixir liquid.
The immortal liquid immediately emitted nine-colored divine light, and then began to absorb and exhale essence from all directions. A powerful incarnation of the holy way was born.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Li Xian'er asked in confusion.
“Although dad is leaving Beidou, he will leave you a means to save your life. This incarnation of the holy way can exert 70% of dad’s strength, and I will leave it to you two to protect the way.” After saying that, Li Zhi’s incarnation of the holy way directly turned into a nine-colored divine light and flew into Li Xianer’s fairy platform, and then turned into a mark attached to the wordless heavenly book.
Afterwards, Li Zhi sealed the remaining two drops of Nine-Colored Immortal Liquid into the wheel seas of Li Xian'er and Jin Ming, and engraved complex Taoist patterns on them to help them save their lives.
"When you have nothing to do, you can feel the charm of the Tao contained in the immortal liquid, which will be helpful for you to comprehend the Tao of immortality in the future." After finishing, Li Zhi said.
"Master, is this where I will open my spiritual intelligence?" Jin Ming came to the human-shaped immortality potion and touched the little hand of the human-shaped immortality potion curiously.
"You awakened your spiritual intelligence under the influence of the human-shaped elixir of immortality. This kind of opportunity is rare in the world. So you must practice well and don't let it go to waste." Li Zhi rubbed Jin Ming's little head and said with a loving face.
"Master, I will try my best." Jin Ming nodded heavily.
Then he waved his hand at the human-shaped immortal medicine and said, "Sister Immortal Medicine, I will bring you something delicious next time."
The human-shaped immortality elixir seemed to understand Jin Ming's words, and the nine-colored divine light on its body flashed, as if responding to her promise.
Afterwards, the three of them left the small world inside the Coffin of Life.
Afterwards, the Coffin of Life flew back to Li Zhi's Wheel Sea Secret Realm again.
"Dad, did you embark on the Ancient Trial Road alone, or did you have a companion with you?" Li Xianer asked again after returning to the cave.
"The Holy Maiden of Yao Chi will travel with dad." Li Zhi said truthfully.
"Dad, then you should be safe." Li Xianer did not continue to ask.
"If you encounter difficulties that you cannot cope with in the future, you can go to the Sun Star to seek refuge from Taoist Master Duan. He is in seclusion there." Li Zhi said finally.
"Senior Duan, why did you go to the sun for retreat?" Li Xianer asked curiously.
“To practice the Heavenly Art of Overcoming Tribulations and refine the Pure Yang Immortal Body, one naturally needs the assistance of endless Yang power.” Li Zhi said.
Afterwards, in the cave, Li Zhi chatted with the two for a long time and then sent them back to the Seven Star Dojo.
They came quietly and left quietly. Except for a few senior officials of Qishi Mansion, no one else knew they had been there.
On the third day after Li Zhi came out of seclusion, the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi came to the Qi Shi Mansion accompanied by Yang Yi.
During the years that Li Zhi was in seclusion, the cultivation level of the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi has increased again. She has reached the eighth level of the king and is only one step away from becoming a great king.
After seeing Li Zhi, Yang Yi, who was beside the Saint of Yao Chi, asked directly: "Master Changshou, what level of cultivation have you reached now?"
She couldn't see Li Zhi's depth, she just felt that the person in front of her was blurry.
Li Zhi smiled and said, "The fourth level of sainthood is perfect, and you can break through to the fifth level of sainthood at any time."
"Your cultivation has reached the middle stage of Saint. That's great. We can finally be completely assured of Yao'er's safety." Yang Yi seemed to be relieved. With Li Zhi, who was at the middle stage of Saint, protecting the Saint of Yao Chi, the safety of the Saint of Yao Chi on the strongest ancient trial road was directly improved by several levels.
"Fellow Daoist Changshou, please take care of me when I step into the starry sky for training this time." The Saint Maiden of Yao Chi also bowed to Li Zhi with a serious face.
Li Zhi took out the token representing the protector of Yao Chi Holy Land and said with a smile, "Since I took over the token from you, I will protect you. As long as your goal is not to defeat all the ancient human races, I think the probability of our safe return to Beidou is more than 90%."
"Aren't you ready to compete with the heroes of the entire universe?" asked Yang Yi, who was beside the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi.
"No need." Li Zhi shook his head slightly.
The purpose of this trip was mainly to strive to become a great sage as soon as possible and at the same time make up for his own shortcomings. It would be even better if he could surpass the chaotic bodies of the same level.
Finally, even if you cannot surpass the chaotic body, you must be able to be on par with the chaotic body.
Fighting with the geniuses from various domains was not his goal.
After communicating with Li Zhi, Yang Yi, who had seen off the Holy Maiden of Yao Chi, returned to the Holy Land of Yao Chi.
After Li Zhi finished explaining the great principles to the young disciples of Qishi Mansion,
That day, he and the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi stepped onto the small five-colored altar in the Qi Shi Mansion.
With a flash of divine light, they left the ancient star of Beidou.
