Hu Le left the Purple Bamboo Staff bathed in the power of the stars, returned to the Lingyun Palace and sat down. He took out the various essences of creation he had previously obtained from the Yuan Qi Tide, swallowed them in one gulp, and began to refine them into magic power.
As time passed, Hu Le's magical power grew rapidly, soaring straight towards the forty-fifth level of Qi Refining.
If he relied solely on absorbing spiritual energy to cultivate, it would take him hundreds of thousands or even millions of years to break through to the forty-fifth level of Qi Refining, given the magical power he had accumulated.
But now, with the help of these treasures nurtured by the vital energy, he can save countless hours.
So, he was lucky to have caught a good time.
Just when they needed to slowly accumulate magical power, they encountered a surge of primordial energy.
Great supernatural beings like Taiyi and his wife, when they broke through to the Great Luo realm, each of them spent countless eons absorbing and accumulating magical power, breaking through layer by layer until they finally achieved the Great Luo Dao Fruit...
Hu Le sat upright on the cloud bed, focusing on cultivating his magical power. Before long, the two brothers, Kong Kong'er and Jing Jing'er, came to pay their respects and returned the innate spiritual treasures that he had previously lent them to protect themselves in the primordial energy tide.
"You can put it back in the back hall yourselves."
Hu Le simply gave a brief instruction, then closed his eyes again and immersed himself in the practice.
Upon hearing this, the two children dared not disturb them further. After responding, they walked quickly into the back hall side by side, took out the magical treasure, and placed it on the table in the hall.
Then he retreated to the front hall, bowed to Hu Le, and left...
However, just a thousand years had passed in the blink of an eye when Hu Le suddenly felt a jolt in his mind. The sound of the tide suddenly rang out within his body. It was the sound caused when the magical power within his body accumulated to the extreme and transformed into a vast ocean.
Just then, Hu Le opened his eyes and murmured, "It's finally done..."
After devouring and refining so much Xuanpin Creation Essence, he finally pushed his Qi Refining Technique to the forty-fifth level.
If you want to cultivate to the forty-sixth level, you can't rely solely on magic power to break through. In addition to having a certain understanding of the Great Dao, the most important thing is to pass the second test of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man.
Otherwise, even if he possesses immeasurable power within him, without overcoming the tribulation, he would never even be able to touch the edge of the forty-sixth heaven...
After his breakthrough, he took a while to adjust and finally had time to sense the situation on the Purple Bamboo Staff. He discovered that after so many years of being washed by the power of the stars, the impurities inside the Purple Bamboo Staff had been almost completely cleansed.
So he got up and went to the back mountain, arriving outside the Small Heavenly Star Array. With a wave of his hand, the Purple Bamboo Staff rose out of thin air and landed in his hand.
He tried wielding it for a while and found it much easier to handle than before. He nodded slightly in satisfaction and waved his sleeve to dispel the Small Heavenly Star Formation.
In an instant, the starlight that had been continuously falling from the sky vanished without a trace, and the star power that had enveloped the back mountain also disappeared into the earth.
Hu Le carried his bamboo cane back to Lingyun Palace and sat back on the cloud bed. Although he no longer needed to continue condensing his magic power, he still needed to practice some supernatural abilities.
Alternatively, one could nurture the spiritual treasure for a while, and continue to comprehend the innate Yin-Yang Dao seed within the Purple Mansion.
Anyway, breaking through to a higher realm doesn't mean everything will be fine.
He'll be very busy from now on...
Hundreds of years passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, while he was comprehending the innate Yin-Yang Dao Seed and perfecting the innate Yin-Yang Chaotic Divine Light, Guan Kong came to the outside of the hall to request an audience.
Hu Le asked her to come in.
After Guan Kong entered the hall to pay his respects, he explained his purpose.
It turned out that she was going out to condense the five energies in her chest for the second time, and she came to inform Hu Le of this.
Upon hearing this, Hu Le nodded slightly, stopped his comprehension of the Dao Seed, and specially performed a divination of heavenly secrets for Guan Kong, with a fairly good result.
Guan Kong wanted to condense a mouthful of metal elemental energy, which required him to make a trip to the Western Continent.
Because she had lent the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus to the Guide Daoist to cleanse the evil energy of the Western Land, she had unknowingly performed a great service to the Western Land.
After she goes to the West, she will surely be favored by Heaven and Earth. Although she may not be able to have all her wishes fulfilled, she will surely receive divine assistance by condensing the five elements in her chest, and she will not encounter any danger.
So Hu Le felt reassured and let her leave...
Not long after Guan Kong left, just as Hu Le was about to resume his comprehension of the innate Yin-Yang Dao Seed, the boy in green robes suddenly came to report that a messenger from the Heavenly Court had come to request an audience.
Hu Le was slightly puzzled, but still ordered the boy to invite the person in.
The messenger entered the hall, met with Hu Le, and then conveyed Taiyi's order.
The order was simple: a hundred years from now, the gods would hold a grand assembly in Heaven, and Hu Le was expected to attend.
Hu Le nodded in understanding and then ordered the boy to send the person away.
Once he was alone in the hall, he silently tried to deduce the situation, only to find that the information about this assembly of gods was shrouded in mystery, and he couldn't calculate any information at all.
That makes sense. This meeting concerns all the gods, and it has the endorsement of Taiyi. How could he, with his current level of cultivation, possibly understand such heavenly secrets?
A century passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Hu Le summoned his disciple Yuan Huang and ordered her to take good care of the Daoist temple. He then rode the clouds and left Penglai Island, heading straight for the Heavenly Court.
As he entered the Zhou Mountain area, the number of immortals and gods coming and going from the clouds increased, all of them going to participate in the assembly of gods, just like him.
On this day, he arrived at the South Heavenly Gate and strolled into the Heavenly Palace.
The meeting was held in the Lingxiao Palace, the tallest and most magnificent palace in the Heavenly Palace.
However, Hu Le did not go there immediately. Instead, he went to Yaochi Immortal Palace, only to find that Empress Jinde was currently with some female cultivators who had come from afar, so he did not disturb them.
Instead, they went to the Ziwei Palace and met Ziwei.
At this moment, Gou Chen and the others were all in the Ziwei Palace. When they saw Hu Le arrive, they hurriedly went up to greet him and invited him to sit down.
Since they were all brothers, Hu Le didn't stand on ceremony and asked about the theme of the conference.
Ziwei smiled and said, "I don't know the specifics, but I heard a few words from the Empress Dowager before, which seemed to be about the Underworld."
Netherworld?
Hu Le was taken aback. What major event had occurred in the Netherworld that warranted such a large-scale mobilization?
When Hu Le pressed for more details, Ziwei and the other brothers all shook their heads.
Seeing this, Hu Le didn't press the matter further. Instead, he drank the elixir and chatted with his brothers.
"Thump!"
Suddenly, a bell rang out, its sound echoing throughout the entire Heavenly Palace.
Ziwei stood up with a smile, "Father is already summoning the gods, let's go over there."
Hu Le nodded, stood up, and walked towards Lingxiao Palace surrounded by his brothers.
At this moment, auspicious light shone upon all living beings above the Lingxiao Palace, with auspicious clouds forming colorful patterns, rosy mists drifting by, and purple vapors swirling and turning into fog, revealing a wondrous realm of immortals...
