These small fish fry have almost no intelligence and just run around chasing the water plants they like to eat.
On this day, a small silver fish fry that was running around in the water plants suddenly jumped out and turned into a little rabbit with the help of the lush water plants on the shore.
"It's been so long, I wonder if the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce has contacted me."
"The order of the Immortal Spirit Realm is supreme, which limits the destructive power and divine power of the cultivators. The white-headed old demon is naturally restricted as well and cannot sense my existence."
The rabbit was chewing on the water plants beside it, looking around with its red eyes.
"First, find a place to stay. I am not familiar with the land away from home. I don't know what's happening to my three clones. I don't know if the descendants of the three families have come to look for them. Don't send some ambitious descendants to kill the ancestors to prove their truth."
The rabbit hopped and disappeared into the dense jungle on the shore, and waited until night fell, when its figure flashed and turned into an ordinary middle-aged man.
The sky of the Yunxiao Realm is always dark, but here, the sky under the night sky is colorful and gorgeous, with a dazzling light that stretches as far as the eye can see.
Another month passed.
Wuxiang Fairy City.
This is the largest fairy city at the junction of the middle and lower reaches of the Wuzhi River, and is under the jurisdiction of the Wuxiang Sect.
The Wuxiang Sect is not that strong, and its leader is only in the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm.
Of course, this is from Shen Lian's perspective. In fact, a cultivator in the middle stage of the Refined Void Realm is already a great master in the Wuzhi River Basin.
There are only about a dozen famous cultivators in the Void Refinement Realm along the Wuzhi River, and there is not a single cultivator in the late Void Refinement Realm.
An ordinary 'mid-stage Spirit Transformation' cultivator like Shen Lian was not noticeable here at all. After honestly paying the city entrance fee of 100 high-quality spirit stones, he rented a cave in Wuxiang City and temporarily settled down there.
The temporary stop is to learn more about the fairy world.
Inside the cave.
"Wuxiang Sect is not the strongest sect in Wuzhi River, and there are no powerful sects in the nearby river basins. The probability of encountering a cultivator in the late stage of Lianxu is very low."
Shen Lian calculated, he didn't dare to say more, but if he met a cultivator in the late stage of the Void Refinement Realm, he believed he still had some chance of escaping.
Therefore, he chose to settle down in a place where there were no late-stage Void Refinement cultivators.
Not only is the spiritual power restricted in the Immortal Realm, but also the flying speed. It took him two years to get here by wading downstream from the river near the Yunxiao Realm. This was also because he couldn't go faster because he was mixed in the river water.
I saw several large immortal cities along the way but didn't settle down there, so I finally chose this place.
There are thousands of thoughts in the sea of consciousness, the purple light is shining, the soul is in a cross-legged sitting and resting state, and one innate rune after another lights up.
"No movement. It seems that the cage is trapped in the turbid energy. These unworthy descendants did not go to look for them after they were lost. I will punish them severely when I return."
Half a day later, after sensing the three clones of the ancestor who were wandering outside one by one, Shen Lian breathed a sigh of relief.
The mutual induction is very clear, and the innate spiritual light is indeed useful.
Everyone is fine in the cage, and the sheltering methods of several families of Jinghe Chamber of Commerce are also powerful. Although Yunxiao Qingguang also helped at the last moment, it is enough to show the high level of the sheltering methods.
The cage was protected, so Shen Lian did not let the three clones out of the cage. He was going to see if anyone from the three families would come to look for them.
As for the puppet technique planted by the boy's Taoist fetus, it is a hidden secret method, so he is unable to know its current status.
However, it seems that the four families have made such a thorough plan for reincarnation. If they don't have a backup plan, then we have overestimated them before.
In the following days, Shen Lian lived in seclusion in Wuxiang Immortal City, constantly buying some simple spiritual objects in the city and taking the opportunity to take a look at the resources of the immortal world.
But at that time, the elder was renting a cave and wandering around the city from time to time, which was still too conspicuous, so he went directly to the Wuxiang Sect and got a position as a spiritual plant master.
He changed his appearance, and his strength was reduced from the adaptability of the Spirit Transformation stage to the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage, and he looked like an old man in his twilight years.
Shen Lian was assigned a task to guard spiritual plants at Wutuan Pond in the outer sect of Wuxiang Sect. When he arrived near Wutuan Pond, he suddenly found that his frail appearance was quite ordinary.
The surrounding area is full of old guys like him who are just hanging around.
The male cultivator is in his twilight years, and his face is full of stories.
The female cultivator has been through a lot, with scars all over her face.
Shen Lian found that he was inconspicuous compared to everyone else, and they would greet each other in a friendly manner when they met.
"I am here."
"Have you eaten yet?"
…
As time went by, Shen Lian gradually became familiar with the fairy world.
The fairy world is magnificent. In addition to the sun, moon and stars, various colors of light appear in the sky from time to time. Some are reflected from the stars, and some are the light from distant realms.
Just as the Small Thousand Worlds were derived from the innate true spirit, every realm in the Immortal Spirit World was also the birthplace of the innate true spirit.
For example, the Huai River was born from an innate spiritual river. Unlike the small thousand worlds, the realms formed by these innate spiritual creatures had long lost their self-awareness and were all shrouded in the order of immortals.
Just like the current Yunxiao Realm is being taken over by the Xianling Realm, the current scene of the Huai River is what Yunxiao will look like in the future.
The more I understand, the more I feel how powerful the fairy world is. The Huai River area is not very eye-catching in the entire fairy world, but there is no shortage of resources at the level of refining emptiness here, which means that it is not a big problem to cultivate all the way to the great perfection of refining emptiness.
As for He Dao, the gap between Lianxu and He Dao is as huge as the gap between heaven and earth. A Yuanying cultivator can still discuss Dao in front of Huashen, but Lianxu cannot do it in front of He Dao.
The Hedao realm is very simple to talk about. First of all, there are three rules to transform, which is the foundation.
The three-turn rule can initially form a rule field.
The more rules you comprehend, the more difficult it will be to achieve harmony with the Tao.
In the fairy world, rules are divided into big and small. Small rules refer to the single yin and yang of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind and thunder. Big rules are the integrated rules of the five elements, gravity, yin and yang, life and death, etc.
There are also corresponding spiritual objects that protect the Hedao monks when they overcome tribulations, but they are extremely rare and will only appear in the void outside the region. They are spiritual objects that are born naturally and are fought over by all parties.
As for the spiritual essence that makes up the five elements, it is very common here. Some good quality ones may be rare, but ordinary quality ones are plentiful.
This is a vast world of incomparable splendor and prosperity.
Above is the legendary land of chaos, and below the chaos is the land of immortals. No one knows whether there are real immortals there, but the Five Elements Immortal Palace exists in the land of immortals.
The Five Elements Immortal Palace that appeared in the Yunxiao Realm was nothing more than a projection cast from the Immortal Traces Land, and the projection did not only appear in the Yunxiao Realm. The projection of the Five Elements Immortal Palace could be seen in all the small worlds where the Immortal Spirit Realm existed.
As for why the cultivators who entered from the various small thousand worlds could not touch each other, this question was too profound and not something Shen Lian could think of at the moment, and he had not found out either.
The cultivators of Hedao can enter the land of immortals, and naturally they can also enter the Five Elements Immortal Palace.
The heavenly tribulation that combines the Dao is called the false Dao tribulation. It is not the false in the sense of true or false, but the false in the sense of borrowed. It entrusts itself to the Dao and uses the false to cultivate the true.
This creates a very terrifying situation, where one needs to practice according to the order of the fairy world, which is like licking blood on the edge of a knife or walking barefoot on fire.
Shen Lian suspected that the age of Patriarch Hedao might be related to this.
After all, the lifespan of a Lianxu cultivator is 30,000 years, and the ancestor of the Hedao cultivator has become one with the Tao, but his lifespan is only 200,000 years, which is a bit short.
Therefore, it is difficult even for the high and mighty Hedao Patriarch.
In addition, the false catastrophe is divided into three types: thirty-nine heavenly tribulations, sixty-nine heavenly tribulations, and ninety-nine heavenly tribulations. Each wave consists of nine-fold thunder tribulations, with a minimum of twenty-seven and a maximum of eighty-one.
In short, the stronger the catastrophe, the greater your potential will be after you overcome it and become a Hedao.
As for more specific information, Shen Lian was not clear about it and could not find out anything.
"The fusion of my two great rules should be as powerful as the power of the third-turn small rules, but my realm is too low. If I encounter a master of the third-turn small rules, I will die."
"We still have to keep a low profile. It is said that Ye Dongliu has already reached the third level of the Water Principle. It is amazing that he has a Chamber of Commerce as a resource library."
"The Great Perfection of Refining Void with the Three-turn Rule is the strongest Refining Void under the Hedao Realm."
"My Yin-Yang and Five Elements rules have reached the second level. After fusion, their power is comparable to the third level. But it doesn't mean it's easy to advance to the third level. Also, my soul is about to reach the first level. Over the years, under the influence of the innate purple spirit, my soul has become more and more crystal clear. It seems that I still need to prepare some secret treasures for the tribulation."
"The secret treasure of the Tribulation Rescue is the long-term goal of cultivation, so let's focus on the present first."
After a long time, Shen Lian interrupted his thoughts. After all, he was only in the initial stage of refining emptiness, and he didn't know how long it would take to advance to the great perfection of refining emptiness.
The main problem at the moment is the cultivation method and cultivation resources.
After years of development, the secret techniques of cultivation in the immortal world have long been clearly divided, and various cultivation methods corresponding to different rules have been derived.
Take the Wuxiang Thick Earth Skill of the Wuxiang Sect for example. In the beginning, before the Spirit Transformation Stage, the main practice is the Way of Earth. The Spirit Transformation Stage can assist cultivators in comprehending the rules of earth. When it comes to the Void Refining Stage, it can assist cultivators in comprehending the rules of gravity from the rules of earth.
The skills that can assist in comprehending the power of rules are called "spiritual" level, and spiritual level skills can at least be cultivated to the sixth level of refining emptiness.
Sorry, anything below the 'spiritual' level is garbage and not worth distinguishing. There are a lot of them in the fairy world, so just rank them according to one, two, three, four, and five levels.
Above the 'Spirit' level there are two levels: 'Semi-Immortal' and 'Immortal'.
According to this classification, "Five Qis Converging to the Origin" is at least a "spiritual" level skill.
As for whether it is the sixth-order 'Spirit' level or the seventh-order 'Spirit' level, Shen Lian still needs to find out which small level in the Refining Void Realm he can cultivate to, or whether he can cultivate to the Hedao Realm.
"I have practiced for many years but I didn't feel that it was because of the technique. I thought it was my talent."
Thinking back to the time when he was comprehending the rules of the Five Elements, Shen Lian did not notice anything unusual.
At that time, the dantian in the body had not yet been fully opened up, and the energies in the body were blending and stimulating each other, which led to the comprehending of the five elements rules. It was a very normal thing.
Speaking of the problem of the middle dantian, he did not hear about the ancient method of practice near the Wuxiang Immortal City. Of course, this may also be because he did not rashly ask around and the circle he touched was small.
However, the relevant physical cultivators did find out that the physical cultivators in the fairy world were not extinct, but they were having a hard time.
In a word, it's fine to take the path of physical cultivation, but the question is, can you withstand a beating?
Physical cultivation can improve quickly, but one will also die quickly.
For the same level of heavenly tribulation, physical cultivators will be one third stronger than magic cultivators overall.
Occasionally, when encountering special circumstances, the physical cultivator's tribulation will give out a surprise of increasing the quantity without increasing the price.
Anyway, I don't forbid you from taking the path of physical cultivation, just think about it carefully in your mind.
Just practice it, and no one will make a sound when struck by the heavenly calamity.
"well..."
Shen Lian scratched his head helplessly. He was now thinking about whether he should give up the path of physical cultivation. This was too dangerous.
There are no famous physical cultivators in the area around the Huai River, which proves that luck is needed to make miracles happen with great strength.
"Look back. Even if it's that scary, you can't die, right?"
At this moment, Shen Lian suddenly thought of a terrifying thing. His path of physical cultivation was not pure. Now that he had reached the Immortal Spirit Realm, would he be able to return to the right path if he continued to cultivate? You know, for so many years, he had not survived a physical cultivation tribulation.
The Supreme Order of the Immortal Realm would not give him all the gold elixir, Nascent Soul, Spiritualization, and Void Refining at once.
"Shut up!"
Suddenly, Shen Lian shrank his neck abruptly and his eyes narrowed.
“Huff…”
When you first arrive, it is important to be steady.
"You are a bunch of unfilial descendants who have not come to pick up the ancestor yet. I will punish you all when I get back."
It turns out that anger doesn't go away, it just shifts.
Shen Lian didn't dare to inquire too much about the news near Wuxiang Immortal City, mainly because he was confident about it.
Once his three ancestor clones returned to their respective nests, the information he wanted could be easily poured into his brain.
There is a high possibility that you will also find the ancient practice that you are looking for.
The Jinghe Chamber of Commerce in the Huai River area, the Huang family in the Cangyuan area, the Chuanshe Sect in the Juyou Star area, and the Wangshu Valley in the Yuehua area planned for ten thousand years, and it was not easy for him to reap the fruits.
These four forces are not close to each other. The closest to the Huai River is Cangyuan, which is also a galaxy away.
Galaxy is the unit of distance in the fairy world.
Legend has it that a long time ago, the first Kun in the fairy world broke out of the boundary, soared into the sky, its wings dangling from the sky, and spread its wings across the galaxy.
Considering that this magical beast could fly fast and well, the distance that Kunpeng could fly when it spread its wings was later set as the unit of boundary distance.
How can I describe how far it is? If it is a galaxy, an ordinary Hedao ancestor will need a year to fly.
The giant star is four galaxies away, and the moon is two galaxies away.
If Yunxiao True Spirit had not said that the innate true spirit was extremely mysterious and the influence of spatial distance was very weak, Shen Lian would not have dared to spend thousands of years in the lower realm to comprehend the child version of the Three Pure Ones.
When he came to the fairy world, he was counting on the three forces to suck his blood. At the very least, he had to suck blood until he reached the great perfection of refining emptiness.
Shen Lian was still very confident about the foundation of the three top-level virtual refining forces. He just needed to make those three groups suffer until he could cultivate to the great perfection of virtual refining.
As night fell, after circling the Mist Pond, Shen Lian returned to the cave. It was very quiet here.
It is more than 50 million miles away from the Wuxiang Sect's headquarters, and the closest of the few old men with stories nearby is 3,000 miles away.
He is a fake Nascent Soul, but the old men and women nearby are real Nascent Souls and pose no threat at all.
The Wuxiang Sect has made the best use of these monks by gathering them together.
The colorful nebula in the sky cast fluctuating spiritual light through the suspended river and shone into the cave through the skylight.
In the darkness, a familiar voice sounded in Shen Lian's sea of consciousness.

The data of the three ancestors' clones allowed Shen Lian to see a clue. This was clearly a targeted reincarnation and cultivation, the purpose of which was to comprehend the power of the two great rules.
First of all, you must possess a certain physique of the five elements. Although I don't know what these three five-element physiques are like specifically, it will definitely be of great help in your subsequent comprehension of the five-element rules to the third level. This is equivalent to locking in the opportunity to achieve harmony with the Tao in advance.
I have practiced hard for more than seven thousand years and finally comprehended the power of two rules, but others achieved it just by sleeping.
Because of the blessing of the innate true spirit, the original aura of the three clones did not dissipate, only the thoughts disappeared, so there was no problem with subsequent cultivation.
What we need to worry about is the subsequent heavenly tribulation in the Hedao realm.
However, Shen Lian did not care about this. Maybe when he was almost at the stage of achieving the Dao through cultivation, it would be time for these three clone ancestors to retire.
"Just wait for the offering, and hurry up."
Under the cover of night, Shen Lian stopped practicing and just lay on the stone bed, gazing at the vast sky through the skylight.
The suspended mountains and waters are so bright that they are reflected in the eyes.
Over the years, he has accumulated a huge number of perception points and divine enlightenment points. He also has doubts about the divine enlightenment points, which are related to the cultivation of Taoism. Now he is waiting for the ancestors of the three families to go back and read the ancestral books.
…
In the turbid sea outside the Yunxiao Realm, an incomparably huge demon-subduing pestle was slammed violently in the turbid sea. The energy of the turbid sea, which was impacted by the order of the fairy world, was dissipating little by little.
A large stick with a round front and many spikes like wolf teeth appeared in the turbid energy that exploded. Two female cultivators in moon-white dresses stood on it.
One of the two women held up the protective shield, while the other held a lotus-shaped soul lamp in her arms, and they moved forward along the winding and cracked turbid sea energy.
The female cultivator holding the soul lamp pointed forward suddenly, and the remaining female cultivator casually cast a spell. The demon-subduing pestle under her feet instantly transformed into countless stick shadows, flashing wildly in the turbid energy.
The turbid energy that once blocked the Void Refining cultivators no longer poses a threat due to the changes in the order of heaven and earth in the surrounding area.
After a trace of energy was cleared away, a charred cage with flashing arcs was revealed.
Inside the cage, the woman seemed to be in a coma.
The two women nimbly pulled the cage over, placed it in the middle of the demon-subduing pestle, and rushed out riding the magic weapon.
"Yuexuan, wake up the ancestor. I will hurry on my way."
Hearing the voice, the ancestor Yue Xuan, who was holding the soul lamp, nodded. A light flashed on her fingers, and a moon-white statue as white as mutton-fat jade appeared. It looked somewhat similar to the female cultivator in the cage.
Then, Yuexuan threw the statue into the cage, and the moment it landed on Wangshu's brow, it melted like spring water.
A huge amount of memory slowly spread out in the sea of consciousness, including experiences related to cultivation.
This was a back-up plan specially arranged before reincarnation, so as to be familiar with the situation after returning. Although I was somewhat confident that I could solve the mystery in the womb before reincarnation, I still had to prepare the necessary means.
In the sea of divine consciousness, a faint purple light flickered on the soul of Ancestor Wangshu, and it began to accept these huge memories.
At the same time, in the Wuxiang clan’s territory, Wutuantan.
Shen Lian in the cave sat up with a squeak, and a flash of purple light appeared in his eyes.
It’s time to broaden your horizons.
The memories of a reincarnated cultivator who has reached the Great Perfection of the Refined Void Realm are too lengthy.
Although he did not find too many related memories in the awakened memories when he refined the three ancestors into secondary souls, Shen Lian had already anticipated that the three old guys must have a backup plan to recover their experience on the long road of cultivation.
Ancestor Wangshu lived for 30,000 years in his previous life. As the chief cultivator of Wangshu Valley, he had reached the great perfection of Lianxu but had no hope of achieving the Dao.
From the memory information that Shen Lian had gained insight into, he realized that there was no way to become an immortal.
"I see. How could a few poor people have such a way to protect themselves from disasters? This is truly a chance sent from heaven."
As his memories were dug out bit by bit, Shen Lian also learned the secret of the reincarnation plan of the four families in Wangshu Valley.
Apart from the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce, which is a new force, the ancestors of Wangshu Valley, Chuanshe Sect, and the Huang family have all been glorious in the past, but their glory can be traced back to at least a million years ago.
Over the past million years, the three families have experienced ups and downs. Finally, a cultivator who has reached the Great Perfection of Refining Void was born again, and their reputation has finally been restored.
Ten thousand years ago, during a search opportunity in the ancient land of Lingze, the cultivators of the four families, Jinghe, Wangshu, Huang family, and Chuanshe, dug up an ancient cave and killed the others.
There is a saying that when luck comes, nothing can stop it. The four cultivators found a method of reincarnation and protection from disasters in this ancient cave, and also obtained a seventh-level Youlun Taisui, which is a reincarnation object of the earth spirit, which can interfere with reincarnation and protect from disasters and turn into cultivation.
It was precisely because of the ancient cave mansion incident that the four families joined forces and created the matter of the reincarnation of the Yunxiao Realm.
As for why the Yunxiao Realm was chosen, it was mainly because the Yunxiao Realm had been invaded by the Heavenly Demon Palace. The small worlds invaded by the Heavenly Demons have always ended up being destroyed, which is equivalent to destroying all traces.
Judging from their memories, the four Wangshu families were unaware of the so-called invasion of the Heavenly Demon Palace. It was only done by the old demon Wuwang alone.
The old demon Wuwang only knew that the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce was engaged in the reincarnation business, and he did not know about the four special people hiding in the protection formation.
Of course, Yunxiao Zhenling also contributed to this. The battle between it and the old demon Wuwang consumed most of the opponent's energy.
"Good fortune rises with the wind and falls with the wind. Fortunately, it has fallen into my hands."
Such a confidential matter failed in the end. As the instigator, Shen Lian became more vigilant.
"Ancient cultivation method. Ancient cultivation method."
Inside the cave, Shen Lian murmured, and couldn't help but stand up and walk back and forth in the cave.
There are too many memories from thirty thousand years, and it takes time to read them out bit by bit.
…
"Hey!"
"ha!"
“Boom boom boom!”
After half a day, Shen Lian walked to the stone wall and banged his head against it.
Among the memories that Wangshu was preparing to recover, there were indeed some memories related to Taoist cultivation, but this path was also called ancient cultivation in the fairy world.
But this road is difficult to take nowadays.
Taoism requires immortal spiritual energy, but immortal spiritual energy is very rare in today's era, and most of it is controlled by some powerful forces.
The fairy spirit is different from the spirit that wanders in the fairy world. Its essence is lighter and more intangible, transcending the mortal world, and is mostly born in areas where few people go.
In addition to this, there is another way, which is to have cultivators in the Hedao realm go to the Immortal Land to act as filters, capturing the spiritual energy of the Immortal Land day and night for purification.
As for the spiritual energy from other places, it is too heavily tainted by the worldly world and cannot be refined.
Because fairy spirit is difficult to obtain, most of it is controlled by superpowers, such as the famous Lingmu Fairy Palace in the fairy world, which is rumored to possess the most fairy spirit in the world.
Moreover, Taoists are very solitary, with most of them occupying one place alone or with a few people, opening up a blessed land and cave to live freely away from the worldly affairs. They would only accept one or two disciples, and often faced the situation of the Taoist tradition being cut off.
But the Taoist methods are very powerful, and most of them appear in the form of sword cultivators.
There is a saying that says it very clearly: if there is no major event in the world, Taoists are too lazy to come out and move around. What they like most is to stay in one place.
Pick magical herbs, refine elixir fire, and have fun with yourself.
"The spirit of the immortal spirit is combined with the essence of the spirit to produce the light, clear and immaterial essence of the spirit. No wonder I have always felt that the five elements of magic power in my middle dantian are more agile and light than those in the lower dantian."
"I can follow the path of Taoism because of the transformation of my spiritual roots. However, it is not an orthodox Taoism. Otherwise, I would not be stuck at the stage of refining essence into qi."
"No wonder I like to get up so much. It turns out that I was born to be a Taoist. It's all because of the worldly world that I have been misled too much."
"There really is a Taoist practice method hidden in the Wangshu Valley Sutra Library. Go back and search for it immediately!"
…
Touching the cracks on the stone wall, Shen Lian murmured, he doubted that his spiritual enlightenment had no effect after so many years, and he was afraid that it was because he had no trigger.
And this introduction is the Taoist practice method.
At first, the divine enlightenment points helped to max out the spiritual roots, so now it’s not a big deal to help refine some immortal spirit energy.
"Gathering immortal herbs, refining elixir fire, and playing with myself, it's so real."
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
…
"Ancestor."
On the Demon-Subduing Pestle, sensing that Patriarch Wangshu in the cage had sat up cross-legged, Yuexuan and Luohe both half-knelt in front of him.
"There is too much noise here, and it has attracted too many people. Let's go back to the sect first."
Wangshu spoke softly, and the memories sent by the two women also recorded the situation of the sect over the past ten thousand years.
The situation was not bad. Over the past ten thousand years, no one in the sect had advanced to the Great Perfection of Refining Void. One of the three late-stage Refining Void masters died of old age. The sect's prestige plummeted, and the area it occupied shrunk by two-thirds.
This is very good. Although the territory is a little small, the sect’s foundation is still there.
It is more than enough to support a cultivator in the early stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Following Wangshu's instructions, Yuexuan opened her mouth and spit out a hazy moonlight, which rolled up the surroundings and turned into a water drop shape, quickly rushing into the Wuzhi River.
Wangshu was trapped in the cage and never came out.
The reason for not coming out is of course safety. Five levels of protection have been arranged for reincarnation, so when he finally returns from reincarnation, he will naturally not take it lightly.
This cage did not break down even under the impact of the order thunder from the fairy world, which shows how strong its defense is.
Wangshu sat cross-legged, and began to activate the back-up plan according to the secret method left behind before his reincarnation. As long as there were cultivators trying to stop him, the cage would be able to unleash the attack power of the Great Perfection of Refining Void.
The two female disciples of the sect around her were trained by her personally, and their realms have reached the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm.
"Grandmaster, after hearing from the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce that something had happened in the Yunxiao Realm, Senior Sister Yuexuan and I rushed to the Huai River area. I didn't expect to receive you so soon."
"The Cloud Realm actually broke through and merged into the Immortal Spirit Realm. The ancestor returned safely in such a commotion. This is enough to show that the ancestor has great luck and will definitely be able to advance to the Hedao realm."
The two female cultivators seemed very excited, and seeing them looking for an escort along the way made Wangshu feel a little relieved, thinking that it was worth his time to cultivate the two of them.
It would take at least twenty years to return from the Huaishui Land to the Yuehua Land, which is insignificant time for high-level creatures.
But it was a bit hard for Shen Lian. He was now eager to learn the Taoist practice method and was eager to verify his ideas.
As Wangshu was picked up by Yuexuan and the other girls, Fellow Daoist Huang was also picked up by the Huang family cultivators in the turbid sea.
Rumble! In a remote area next to the Wuzhi River, thick mud covered the cage, and the atmosphere was silent, isolating the inside and outside.
A strange black snake with a single horn had been swimming in the water for years and now it has plunged into the mud.
…
"You are a piece of trash. You can't even control the sect. How can you be the ancestor?"
Wutuantan Cave has recently received the memories of two ancestors one after another, and Shen Lian has been absorbing the experience in the memories.
It can be said that after being baptized by the memory experiences of two cultivators who have reached the Great Perfection of the Refining Void Realm, he is now almost a genuine immortal spiritual master.
But unexpectedly, something went wrong with the third ancestor, You Shifang.
"It's okay, I'm not dead"
The furious Shen Lian recovered and started to pack up to go meet this piece of trash.
The one who came to pick up You Shifang was not a disciple of Chuanshe Sect, but a spirit beast he once raised, which had untied the contract between the two parties before reincarnation.
The ghost dragon that was only in the middle stage of the sixth level before reincarnation is now in the late stage of the sixth level.
This old dragon has been guarding the soul lamp left by You Shifang and has been waiting for ten thousand years.
But this old dragon turned against us, and the protective attack left on the cage was used to deal the old dragon a heavy blow.
It was also the old dragon's fault for being too direct. As soon as it saw You Shifang, it immediately turned into a spirit. It opened its mouth and was ready to swallow You Shifang, who was hiding in a tattered cage with only the power of an ordinary early-stage refining void.
Unexpectedly, the tattered cage burst out with terrifying power, which knocked the old dragon to death.
With such a sudden change, even the original You Shifang would not dare to stay any longer, not to mention that it was Shen Lian who was controlling this body now.
After the attack, the cage protected You Shifang, but it also lost its last line of defense. It randomly collected the flesh, skin, bones, and storage magic treasures of the ghost dragon, then melted into the water and quickly fled away.
Even Shen Lian's spiritual perception was overwhelmed by nine thousand miles, not to mention other cultivators in the early stage of refining emptiness. In addition, the lake where they were hiding was remote and there were no cultivators coming and going, so You Shifang avoided prying eyes.
After escaping three thousand miles away, it emerged from the water, transformed into a different shape, and returned to the direction where the noise had just broken out.
After feeling a breath of refining emptiness on the way, he hurriedly moved to the shore under the witness of several monks on large ships on the river.
It was the recent events in the Yunxiao Realm that caused all the Void Refinement cultivators in this area to suddenly gather together. Otherwise, it would be rare to see so many Void Refinement cultivators in the past.
It was normal for You Shifang to dodge. Many Jindan cultivators were like this. It was their instinct to avoid high-level cultivators.
On the other side, Shen Lian, who had just been a spiritual farmer for a few days, had no choice but to go upstream again to support You Shifang.
"Chuanshe Zong, this name doesn't sound very impressive. Who picked this unlucky name?"
There are many rivers in the Huai River, and boats can be seen everywhere.
Compared to flying in the air on a flying magic treasure, many cultivators still choose to travel by boat. Under the order of the fairy world, it is too tiring for cultivators to fly, and if they are not in a hurry, it is more comfortable to travel by boat.
A treasure ship sailing upstream was packed with cultivators at the Nascent Soul and Nascent Soul levels.
"It's true that there are so many wonders in this world. An entire small world has been blown open. I should go and see it for myself."
"This Yunxiao Realm is very special. The famous Wuzhi Dragon Ape of the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce has been guarding outside the realm for nearly two thousand years. At that time, all the ships traveling on the Wuzhi River were scared away by the dragon ape."
"Could it be the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce who did it?"
The thing that the cultivators on the treasure ship talked about the most was the Yunxiao Realm on the Wuzhi River. There were quite a few people on this ship alone who wanted to go to the Yunxiao Realm to take a look.
In this way, Shen Lian went upstream and You Shifang went downstream, and the two met in Tujiang City on the banks of Wuzhi River a year later.
"I was going to suck your blood, but you let me be your bodyguard first. Doesn't this count as saving me 30,000 years of detour?"
After throwing You Shifang into the Fairy Cave, Shen Lian went downstream again. It was impossible for him to go back to the Yunxiao Realm area.
According to the current news, the power of rules in the out-of-bounds area has not dissipated after several years. It seems that it will take a long time for the Yunxiao Realm to integrate into it as a buffer.
The people on top cannot go down, but the people on the bottom can fly up, and many of them have become grooms.
Upon hearing the news, Shen Lian felt that he had charged too little for the matchmaking fee.
Soon, Shen Lian, who was in a hurry, stopped and a smile appeared on his face.
He flew into a dense forest, dug a cave as quickly as a groundhog, and hid inside.
"Ancestor You can."
A clicking sound came from his mouth, and from the soul lamp obtained from the ghost dragon, You Shifang recovered the memories that he had hidden with a secret method in advance.
This fusion is not a big deal. I didn't expect that Ancestor You is so capable.
Before You Shifang was reincarnated, he realized that something might go wrong, so he secretly arranged a villa for himself in the area of the Huai River.
It is located at the lowest reaches of Wuzhi River.
In the other palace, there are spiritual objects stored for him to use when he returns to overcome the heavenly tribulation and restore his realm.
Although he was temporarily unable to return to the sect to look for relevant Taoist cultivation methods, Shen Lian was very satisfied as he had prepared the resources for subsequent cultivation.
In You Shifang's memory, this batch of resources was only enough for him to recover to the middle stage of Refining Void. After recovering to the middle stage of Refining Void, he would have the confidence to return to Chuanshe Sect.
The Wuzhi River stretches for more than 300 million miles. The spiritual energy is most abundant in the upper reaches of the river, and becomes weaker as it goes downstream. This is why You Shifang placed Beppu in the lower reaches of the Wuzhi River.
One is that it is close to the Yunxiao Realm, and the other is for safety.
In this way, Shen Lian went downstream.
…
Fifteen years later.
The land of Cangyuan, Huangsha Mountain, and the Huang family.
A flying boat returned to the Huang family's ancestral land in a dusty state. The young-looking ancestor of the Huang family jumped off the flying boat and headed towards the Sutra Library deep in the family.
"My return must be kept secret. I will prepare to survive the Refining Void Heaven Tribulation in a few days. My current strength is too weak."
After rushing into the Sutra Repository in one breath, he was discovered by the elders stationed there. Fortunately, the head of the Huang family who was following behind him came quickly.
The Huang family's library is very large, and even after years of loss and migration, the various ancient books, jade slips, and bamboo books hidden in it are still numerous.
His divine sense swept across the wooden shelves piled up on the top of the attic, grabbing out the jade slips, animal skins, etc. one by one.
"Found it. 'Dan Huo Tong Can' and 'Tai Xuan Dong Zhen Jing'..."
Jade slips and animal skins passed through the eyes of the Huang family ancestor, and he wrote down all the relevant contents.
There are indeed many records about Taoist cultivation, including rumors and notes, but most of them are incomplete. The only complete Taoist cultivation method is "The Twelve-story Dongyun Sutra".
…
The lower reaches of Wuzhi River, the end of the river.
Deep in a remote mountain range, there is Shifang Villa.
The villa opened by You Shifang is really remote. There is a swamp nearby. There are neither spiritual herbs nor plants. It is a rare place with poor mountains and bad water.
"The Twelve-story Cave Cloud Sutra is such a spiritual method."
"The forces at the Hedao level are different. A lean camel is bigger than a horse."
All the related methods and notes sent back by Huang Youdao were imprinted in Shen Lian's sea of consciousness.
These were collected when the Huang family was still a Hedao-level force, and they have been living off their accumulated capital for all these years.
The key point is that they haven't eaten it all yet. It can only be said that the descendants of the Huang family are still very conservative. If they hadn't thought about going out to develop a family business over the years, they could probably have eaten it for tens of thousands of years.
Having an unfilial descendant like Huang Youdao, he insisted on going out to develop a family business to prove himself, and then he met him.
"Wait a little longer. Wangshu should be returning to Wangshu Valley soon. When the Taoist cultivation methods hidden in the two major forces are gathered together, I will see which one is most suitable for me."
After taking a deep breath, Shen Lian resisted the urge to practice immediately.
The methods of Taoist cultivation are somewhat different from those of cultivation. There is no obvious classification of "spiritual" or "semi-immortal". It depends on the cultivator's perception of the method.
This was not what he said, but the records of relevant fragments found by the three old guys after integrating their memories.
Taoist practitioners are too rare, and they are not willing to play with everyone, so nowadays, cultivators who follow the orthodox path of cultivation rarely understand these things.
He did not sense much affinity from the Dongyun Sutra, so it was a situation where he could practice it or not.
Afterwards, Shen Lianrong opened a spiritual ban, took out a top-quality Zi Ling Xu Yun Pill from the jade box and swallowed it. Eighty percent of the spiritual pills prepared by You Shifang were of medium quality, and twenty percent were of top quality.
This is a kind of elixir that has not been mentioned in his inheritance, and it is used for daily practice by cultivators in the early stage of refining emptiness.
That's great. After ascending to heaven, he doesn't even need to refine elixirs. Shen Lian feels that this is what it's like to cultivate immortality. How can he be considered an immortal if he does everything by himself?
Twenty years have passed.
On this day, Shen Lian woke up from his practice, and a smile appeared on his face which had remained unchanged for a long time.
"Another two complete Taoist cultivation methods. It's still cool to be the ancestor."
