"Master, is this the blessed land where immortals live? It looks no different from our village, and it's not even as good as our village. There's not even a place to shelter from the wind and rain."
The girl's words were filled with undisguised disdain and indifference, which made the young Taoist priest beside her sigh helplessly.
"Didn't you insist on seeing this? I already told you before you came in that there's nothing to see, it's all just desolate wilderness."
156n.
"But how could I have known that the blessed land of immortals would be like this?"
Wang Shu was somewhat disappointed. The scene before her was flat and flat, with short green grass swaying in the wind. The grass was so short that it couldn't even cover her feet. Apart from the grass, there were only a few saplings with their branches outstretched, which were not even as tall as her.
"First of all, your master is not an immortal, and secondly, this can't be considered a truly blessed land."
Feng Bingwen looked at his first disciple and explained that the only thing worth praising about his fortune was its vast territory and expansive land; otherwise, it was only slightly better than wasteland.
"Don't be fooled by the current state of my blessed land. In less than ten years, everything you see before you will be completely transformed. At that time, I will show you what true celestial grandeur is!"
"Okay, okay!"
Wang Shu cheered with joy, her eyes sparkling with delight and anticipation. Then, she grabbed Feng Bingwen's sleeve and asked him in a coquettish tone,
"Master, may I raise rabbits in your blessed land? It's so empty here, there's nothing here."
"You can keep them, but you can't just keep rabbits."
Feng Bingwen knew the blessed land inside and out, and knew how desolate and empty it was now. Apart from the central area where people still lived, the rest of the place was practically devoid of even a rat.
"ah?"
"The evolution of this blessed land depends on you!"
Feng Bingwen reached out and ruffled Wang Shu's hair. After returning to Donghua Continent, he went to the Floating Life Immortal Realm, where half-demons gathered, and brought out his disciple, who was being fed and cared for by those half-demons, as well as his deer and Xiong Cuiyue, who was surrounded by women.
Well, because the Five-Colored Deer Flower Morning Glory is a female deer, after learning of her identity as a mount, the group of half-demons in the Floating Life Immortal Realm gave her the highest level of normal treatment.
As for Xiong Cuiyue, he had already revealed his background long ago. After revealing his background, during the time he stayed in the Floating Life Immortal Realm, he was coveted by many female demons who wanted to obtain his ancestral deoxyribonucleic acid.
Feng Bingwen remembered that when he brought this guy out of the Floating Life Wonderland, Xiong Cuiyue, who had visibly lost weight, was still somewhat reluctant to part with him and quite nostalgic.
But Feng Bingwen still took him away without any mercy. He didn't mean anything by it. It wasn't out of jealousy at all. He just didn't want his follower to be drained by the succubus and left with a sore back and weak legs. Who would he order around then?
On his way back, Feng Bingwen casually mentioned the extraordinary encounter he had when he was teleported to the Outer Heavens. His disciples, mounts, and followers were all amazed and full of praise. His disciples, in particular, were very pleased with their admiring expressions.
If it were anyone else, it wouldn't matter, but what is the identity of his disciple? He is the reincarnation of an ancient immortal. He is at least at the level of Immortal Lord Xuanqing, or even higher.
Although her memories have not yet returned and she is just an innocent young girl, this cannot erase the fact that she is the reincarnation of an ancient immortal.
"Okay, Master, just watch me!"
Wang Shu was completely unaware of the seriousness of Feng Bingwen's instructions. She patted her flat chest and accepted everything.
"Don't give up halfway. If you don't want to continue later, I'll make you keep doing it."
"Won't!"
After the reincarnation of this ancient immortal returned to Xiaxi Village, where she was born, with Feng Bingwen, she caught a litter of rabbits in the mountains and sent them to Feng Bingwen's blessed land. The little girl was overjoyed to see the litter of rabbits multiplying so rapidly.
Feng Bingwen laughed along, since everything was under his control and he could teach his first disciple a lesson.
Of course, for Feng Bingwen, this was just a minor matter to adjust his mood. His own cultivation was the most important thing. The increase in his cultivation level was just a natural thing for him. What he really needed to devote his energy to was cultivating supernatural powers and condensing the true seeds of supernatural power talismans.
He has now condensed three true talisman seeds, each representing a different supernatural power: the Five Directions and Five Elements Supreme Mysterious Divine Light, the Primordial Five Elements Destruction Spirit Thunder, and the Five Elements Escape Technique.
These are all extremely compatible with his supernatural powers and methods, and they may evolve further as his cultivation improves, eventually becoming great supernatural powers.
If an ordinary cultivator reaches this stage, they would be preparing to condense their Yuan Dan if they haven't accumulated enough foundation. But Feng Bingwen didn't feel any pressure at all.
Therefore, he made a special trip back to the Daoist Canon Hall, selected dozens of supernatural powers and methods, and prepared to carefully study them, summarize the supernatural powers most suitable for him, and condense the true seed of talismans.
Feng Bingwen had also thought about it carefully. Of the three divine power seeds he had condensed, two were for killing and one was for escape. If he were to condense more seeds, he should avoid overlapping effects.
Feng Bingwen now plans to first refine three supernatural abilities. One is the ability to divine, not to be like those charlatans of the Heavenly Evolution Path who can calculate with divine wisdom and without omission. He only wants to be able to conceal his own origins and confuse the secrets of heaven at critical moments.
Then came a protective divine power and a divine power that could heal one's injuries during combat, striving to achieve perfection in every aspect without any shortcomings.
Although in previous battles, those who fought him hadn't even been able to touch his body, he couldn't be invincible forever. The world was vast, and all races coexisted; there would always be opponents who could threaten him. Even his master had never claimed to be invincible among those of the same realm.
However, although Feng Bingwen had a premonition of future troubles, he was still somewhat surprised when they came to him, because they came so quickly.
Are you free right now?
On the day Feng Bingwen was leisurely practicing his technique, the jade seal that he had refined and nurtured in his dantian suddenly vibrated, emanating a familiar divine thought.
That is a magic seal that can manipulate the central control of the laws and restrictions of the Zhanmeng Islands. It can not only be used as a magic weapon to fight enemies, but also to contact fellow disciples and elders of the Supreme Dao in time when encountering danger.
"Master, we can squeeze in some time, it's not a big deal."
Feng Bingwen circulated his internal energy and focused his gaze on the six talisman seeds floating slightly in his dantian. He was still in complete control, feeling no pressure in his dantian and moving with ease.
"The Netherworld Path, the Heavenly Sword Path, and the Starry Constellation Path have all sent messengers to my Supreme Path to deliver messages!"
After receiving Feng Bingwen's response, the jade seal remained silent for a moment before emitting a somewhat obscure and difficult-to-describe divine thought fluctuation. His master, Zhao Junxian, seemed to have extremely complicated emotions at this moment.
What happened?
Feng Bingwen's expression was somewhat subtle. Among the twelve paths of the Xuanmen, no matter which path or sect it was, there was more than one Celestial Immortal suppressing its foundation. Even under normal circumstances, it could ensure that a Celestial Immortal in life would take action at any time, and if necessary, it could even awaken more Celestial Immortals.
Of the three great paths, the Supreme Path has sent a message, so something extraordinary must have happened. What use would it be to ask a minor cultivator like him, who hasn't even condensed his Yuan Dan, about such a thing?
"Before the tenth of the month, the Golden Crow Clan visited the Netherworld Path, the Heavenly Sword Path, and the Starry Constellation Path under the pretext of discussing the Dao, and their Dao disciples were all defeated by a human-demon!"
"A transvestite?"
The divine thoughts transmitted by Feng Bingwen could no longer be described as subtle.
"Well, I heard it was a little princess of the Golden Crow Clan with extremely noble blood. She couldn't stand the loneliness and seduced a human slave from the demon kingdom under her command. After they had sex, they had a bastard child."
Even divine communication could not conceal the mockery and contempt in Zhao Junxian's mind.
"A half-demon? Is that strong?"
"If they weren't strong, those three sects wouldn't have sent messages to my Supreme Dao. I heard their disciples suffered extremely miserable defeats. That demon even defeated them using only Daoist magic."
Zhao Junxian was also somewhat helpless. In earlier years, he would have personally rolled up his sleeves to handle such matters. Now that his cultivation level had increased and his seniority had risen, if he were to intervene, it would be considered bullying the weak.
"Taoist methods?"
Feng Bingwen's expression also became serious.
A half-human, half-demon born into the Golden Crow Clan, he must have learned the methods passed down by the Golden Crow Clan. As for the human path, it could not be the strongest; it can only be said that he cultivated both. Now, he only used a part of it and defeated the three Dao Sons.
"Master, do you want me to go and fight that half-demon?"
The intention behind Zhao Junxian's communication this time was obvious to anyone.
This time, the Golden Crow Clan suddenly sent out a half-demon hybrid who, under the guise of a Dao discussion, defeated three Dao disciples in a row. If no human cultivator can fight back, the loss will be far more than just a matter of face.
"Why are you in such a hurry? I'm just informing you. It's not your turn yet. Even if I step down from the position of Daoist, you're not the Supreme Daoist. Do you really think this position is passed down from master to disciple?"
"None of my fellow disciples in the sect would compete with me. If I said I wanted to become the Supreme Daoist Child, I'm afraid no one would stop me."
Feng Bingwen's divine sense entered the jade seal, and his matter-of-fact tone earned him merciless ridicule from his master.
"Under normal circumstances, no one would compete with you. If you want to take the position, it will remain vacant until you are capable enough to sit in it."
But this provocation comes from the Demon Emperor's clan. If you fight, you will represent my Supreme Dao. If you lose, have you considered the consequences?
"..."
Upon hearing this, Feng Bingwen fell silent. The Supreme Dao is the number one Dao sect of the human race. If the Supreme Daoist Master were to fight a half-demon of mixed blood from the Golden Crow Clan and be defeated, it would be a great blow to the spirit and morale of many humans.
"When I traveled throughout the Nine Provinces, I heard a saying: 'If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight.' You may want to sit in the position of the Supreme Daoist, but have you thought about the responsibilities that come with it?"
"Master, what is the cultivation level of that half-demon?"
"Just like you, he's only at the Transcendent Realm! The Dao disciples of those three sects are all at the same level as him. He'll probably go and challenge the Dao disciples of other sects who haven't yet advanced to the Transcendent Realm. After he's defeated them one by one, he'll definitely come after our Supreme Dao."
"I understand. If it really comes to that, I will go and fight."
Feng Bingwen was deep in thought.
"I told you, you're not a Dao Child yet!"
"Then let us fight as true disciples of the Supreme Dao!"
The spirited young Taoist replied without hesitation, then laughed freely. His ease and unrestrained expression were even felt by the newly ascended immortal, thousands of miles away, through his divine sense.
"If that half-demon really finds our Supreme Dao sect, as the number one Dao sect of the human race, we must send someone out to fight. We can't just refuse with the flimsy excuse that we haven't chosen a Dao Child this generation. Avoiding battle would be even more shameful, wouldn't it?"
"Even if we really send someone to fight, do you think it has to be you?"
Inside the gates of the Supreme Dao Sect, Zhao Junxian could see Feng Bingwen's divine thought reply and couldn't help but laugh and scold him.
"nature."
Feng Bingwen exuded an imposing and confident aura; even his divine sense revealed a powerful and resolute demeanor.
"To put it modestly, within the Supreme Dao sect, there is no one in the Transcendent Realm who can rival me!"
"What arrogance!"
Inside the grand hall, the young Taoist priest dressed in feathered robes raised his long, sword-like eyebrows.
"To be honest, all my fellow disciples have already surpassed me. Even the one with the weakest cultivation has formed the Golden Core. The only ones who can compete with me are the many junior brothers and sisters who have just entered the sect. Who can fight me?"
Feng Bingwen naturally showed no fear. The number of disciples in the Supreme Daoist sect was dwindling, and it was extremely rare for each generation to have more than ten disciples.
In terms of Feng Bingwen's current seniority, his strength can be described as neither the best nor the worst.
"I should find an opportunity to temper your arrogance."
"I've already been very modest. If I'm any more modest, wouldn't that be deceiving my teachers? Is telling the truth also a mistake?"
Feng Bingwen's divine sense revealed an innocence. He had a very reasonable understanding of his own strength. He was not arrogant, but he also could not underestimate himself.
He had long ago taken control of a blessed land that evolved from a remnant of an extraterrestrial realm, even if it was a youthful version. For a cultivator of his level, it was incredibly useful. For one thing, when he engaged in a war of attrition with cultivators of the same level, few could outlast him.
"Alright, enough joking, let's get down to business. How many true talisman seeds have you condensed so far?"
Six!
"You've mastered so much in such a short time, that's quite impressive. You're almost catching up to my cultivation speed back then. But it's still not enough. The Daoist disciple of the Starry Constellation Path had already condensed eight true talisman seeds, but he still failed. If you're confident, then cultivate this realm to perfection in the shortest possible time!"
I'll try my best.
---Aside---
I might have a false gallstone, or it could be drug crystallization, but it's not certain yet. I'll wait a month and have another check-up. I'll try to resume the 6000-word update tomorrow—regardless of whether it's real or not, I definitely have inflammation.
