Yang Yitian: "I haven't finished speaking yet."
“Okay, then you go ahead,” Qi Zhiheng said.
Yang Yitian also became interested: "The trajectory of this matter has basically been planned. You are blessed with great fortune, and my father sent someone to deliver the string of immortals with the same spiritual root as you to your hands, so barring any unforeseen circumstances, you will definitely be able to ascend."
"My inheritance was sent by your father?" Qi Zhiheng raised his voice slightly at the end.
"Yes, the immortal who passed on his legacy was my father's subordinate."
"And then, when you learned of my existence, what choices did you make?"
Yang Yitian sighed: "I had no choice. When it was my turn to undergo tribulation, I still had to undergo it. It's just that we guessed that I might fail the first time, which is why I was so decisive in getting things done and then waiting to die when I knew that I had failed to become a god."
"How can you guarantee that you will meet me?" Qi Zhiheng asked again.
Yang Yitian said, "Well, we did a little tampering with things. After my soul shattered, my father stored it in the Reincarnation Array Plate and nurtured it for a long time. It wasn't until the years leading up to your birth that my remnant soul was gradually released into various worlds. The location of my main soul is uncertain; it's the only part of my soul that has consciousness. Those without souls are basically reincarnated as idiots. One remnant soul was released to reincarnate after your birth. After your birth, my father even used our birth dates and times to cast a spell, binding our karma together."
"Then, do you know about my rebirth?" Qi Zhiheng once suspected that his rebirth was due to the inheritance in the Immortal Realm. If it was that inheritance, it should be related to Yang Yitian.
"Reborn?" Yang Yitian was somewhat surprised. "You were actually reborn?"
"You don't know?" Qi Zhiheng became even more curious about the matter.
Yang Yitian was speechless: "How would I know if I've already been reincarnated?"
Qi Zhiheng was speechless.
"That's how things turned out. My karma with you is intertwined." Yang Yitian thought for a moment and then said, "Also, your Six Paths Reincarnation Disc isn't actually a spiritual artifact, but an array disc. It was probably refined by my father. Since it was originally mine, it naturally ended up in my hands. Now that we've become Daoist partners, the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc is practically the same whether it's in your hands or mine. This array disc is also very important to me. My soul was sent out through it, so naturally, I had to retrieve it from it. As it turns out, we were very successful."
Next came the matter of the Immortal Palace Secret Realm. Although the Immortal Palace Secret Realm had been invaded by the Heavenly Dao, the core of the Immortal Palace still belonged to Yang Yitian. It was something that could not be corrupted and could truly be considered a demigod realm. After Yang Yitian's soul shattered, the Immortal Emperor put this secret realm away and placed the scroll containing Yang Yitian's sealed memories inside. Originally, it was intended for Yang Yitian to open it himself, but in the end, it was Qi Zhiheng who opened it. With the seal in the scroll broken, those memories belonging to Yang Yitian naturally returned to his mind. Only when his soul could withstand such a vast amount of memories would the memories truly merge.
The day the memories were merged happened to be the memories merged before ascension.
"My divine soul was too powerful, and naturally it was mixed with a lot of immortal spiritual power. Once my divine soul was fully integrated, my cultivation level also soared, so I ascended." Yang Yitian said this with a hint of helplessness, "I don't know if I deliberately ascended suddenly."
What else could Qi Zhiheng say but put the previous matter aside for the time being: "Let's consider this matter over. What are your plans for the future?"
At this point, Yang Yitian stepped forward and hugged Qi Zhiheng, glancing at him somewhat guiltily: "Didn't I say earlier that I divided my life's cultivation into six parts?"
"Then what."
"That's right, my father sealed those cultivation levels in the six heavens above. I have to come up from the first heaven and then continue to collect my cultivation levels."
"Why go through all this trouble? Wouldn't he just come down and pick you up himself? And then give you his cultivation?"
“No, my father is on the verge of breaking through to godhood. I estimate that the Heavenly Dao is watching him very closely. Only when he uses the range of his laws can he slightly shield himself from the Heavenly Dao’s gaze for a period of time, and that time won’t be long. Before I can become a god, I can’t go to see him, otherwise I will be implicated by him,” Yang Yitian explained.
Qi Zhiheng pulled the person out of his arms: "So, you're determined to go to the Fourth Heaven no matter what, right?"
Yang Yitian felt a little uneasy: "I must go up and retrieve my cultivation. My father won't last much longer."
"What if you fail to become a god again?" Qi Zhiheng looked him in the eye.
Yang Yitian's tone was devoid of much emotion: "Then he'll probably die."
At this moment, Qi Zhiheng finally realized that Yang Yitian had once been an Immortal Emperor, and now his words carried a cruel meaning.
He closed his eyes briefly, then opened them again, his tone much colder: "Then go do what you want to do."
Yang Yitian sensed something was off in his tone and tugged at his sleeve: "Are you angry?"
"No," Qi Zhiheng answered firmly.
"Don't be angry. Once I become a god, you can come find me." Yang Yitian
Of course, if they fail, it will probably mean they will never see each other again. Then, after a few thousand years, as the Immortal Emperors fail to complete their tribulations, the upper echelons of the Immortal Realm will collapse and disappear, destroyed in an instant.
"I know," Qi Zhiheng said calmly.
Yang Yitian choked: "You've changed. Shouldn't you be reluctant to part with me and then advise me not to care about that father from my past life and just be with you?"
"Would you do that?" Qi Zhiheng met his gaze.
Yang Yitian wanted to slap himself. Why did this matter come up again? He said weakly, "I can't do that. Not only my father, but the other Immortal Emperors who have condensed the Immortal Realm probably won't live much longer. I need to break through to godhood within two thousand years. If I succeed, we can all live together. If I fail, then we will all die together."
Qi Zhiheng looked into his eyes and said earnestly, "You won't die."
"Um."
"I won't let you die." Qi Zhiheng cupped Yang Yitian's face and kissed the lips he had longed to kiss for so long...
The door was not opened until three days later.
Qi Zhiheng's emotions have returned to normal. Yang Yitian will not leave for another month. In fact, he did not want to waste this month of time to see him, but he still asked Yang Yitian for some books about the cultivation world.
"I know too little about the situation here. Give me some secret realm books that I can use now and in the future, the more the better." Qi Zhiheng directly reached out and asked Yang Yitian for things.
Yang Yitian then pulled out some books from the Immortal Palace and piled them all in front of Qi Zhiheng.
Qi Zhiheng accepted it directly, but did not intend to look at it now.
Yang Yitian said, "Actually, I think you don't need to be in such a hurry. You should wait for news of the appearance of the God Realm before you make your efforts. Otherwise, if you go up there and the Immortal Realm collapses, you're finished."
Qi Zhiheng looked at Yang Yitian and said seriously, "Wouldn't it be better to die with you?"
Yang Yitian thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it's pretty good."
Qi Zhiheng touched his face and said, "What are you confused about? You won't die."
"Um."
The two figures were talking when they became entangled again.
Once the door is closed, a month has passed.
Yang Yitian had obtained the credentials to travel to the Fourth Heaven. The two walked out of the cave together, and Qi Zhiheng personally escorted Yang Yitian to the entrance of the teleportation array.
Yang Yitian suddenly gave Qi Zhiheng a big hug: "Then I'm leaving."
Qi Zhiheng reported to the person who came: "Go."
Yang Yitian looked back every few steps, and each time he saw Qi Zhiheng still standing there. He felt a lump in his throat and turned around to enter the teleportation array.
After Yang Yitian left, Qi Zhiheng returned to his cave.
Yang Yitian gave him quite a few books, and he went directly into the space to browse through them in a place where time flowed slowly.
The world surrounded by spiritual energy was no longer suitable for his current cultivation level as an Earth Immortal to absorb. It was quite uncomfortable in the spiritual energy, but Qi Zhiheng didn't care. He just wanted to finish reading all the information here as quickly as possible.
He needs to become stronger faster, and the fastest way to do so is naturally through various ruins and secret realms that may contain hidden treasures.
Qi Zhiheng looked at some secret realms of all sizes. As long as they were suitable for cultivators below the Immortal Lord level, he would mark them down and prepare to try them out when they were open.
Just as Qi Zhiheng was studying the secret realm, the Soul-Devouring Insect King and his mate outside had already mutated into the Sky-Devouring Insect.
When Qi Zhiheng came out again, he saw that the two insects, which were originally dark, had now turned completely white. He praised them, saying, "Not bad, your color has the temperament of a celestial beast."
Because Qi Zhiheng set up a formation to conceal the tribulation lightning here, the tribulation process here went unnoticed.
Qi Zhiheng, who had not left his home for a long time, finally received an invitation from Mo Jiang, a fourth-level alchemist, after two months of seclusion.
Qi Zhiheng had some information about the secret realm and wanted to ask Mo Jiang for his opinion. So, he prepared a gift and went to keep the appointment.
Mo Jiang was delighted to see Qi Zhiheng. Putting aside the fact that Qi Zhiheng, a mere Earth Immortal, possessed remarkable insights into alchemy, Mo Jiang had never seen an alchemist who could advance two ranks in his life.
Qi Zhiheng discussed the matter of pills with Mo Jiang. He didn't hold back and answered all of Mo Jiang's questions with what he understood. Mo Jiang appreciated his attitude and shared his own experience in alchemy.
Finally, Qi Zhiheng steered the conversation toward the secret realms, discussing with Mo Jiang the ones he had recently explored, wanting to see Mo Jiang's opinion on them so he could decide whether they were worth exploring.
