Two years later, in Shi Xuan's dwelling on the Phecda Peak in Penglai.
Shi Xuan's soul, which was no different from his body except for a few specks of light, suddenly blurred. It rapidly disintegrated, scattering into specks of light. At the same time, the specks of light grew dimmer and dimmer, vanishing very soon.
On the other side of the cave, an indistinct figure appeared and materialized. It was Shi Xuan's primordial spirit.
"Changing between real and illusory, gathering and dispersing at will. My realm has finally completely stabilized. Shi Xuan looked at his solid right hand and said with some joy, "And unlike last time, when I had to undergo two tribulations in a row, my techniques and treasures couldn't keep up with my cultivation at all. Apart from the Chaotic Light of Yin Yang, I can only use the Zi Ying Sword."
During the five hundred and sixty years that his soul had been sealed by the Vajra Glass Talisman, Shi Xuan had gained a lot of intelligence. Coupled with his accumulation of over a thousand years in the Way of Yin Yang and the laws of the world after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, as well as the benefits he had gained from observing the Yin Yang Stone, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Two Elements Minute Dust, the Innate Eight Trigrams, the Book of Karma, the Shenxiao Truethunder, the Innate Windthunder Escape, the Five Thunder God's Capture, and the Dual Dimension Void Traversal. He had reached the third level sixty years earlier than the three hundred years that he had planned.
However, Shi Xuan had not completely undergone the third heavenly tribulation back then, so he was unable to reach the fourth level with these techniques. He could only comprehend them day and night to deepen his understanding and grasp them better. With the remaining three hundred years to comprehend, Shi Xuan felt like he had achieved twice the result with half the effort in the past two years. Normally, it would take him six hundred and sixty years to reach the next level, but he estimated that it would only take him five hundred and eighty years, or even less.
Apart from the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Shi Xuan also had the Two Elements Minute Dust, a pseudo-surpassing technique. It was equivalent to the fourth level, which was enough for him to reach the third tribulation of the Yang Soul Stage. However, the fifth level techniques required him to touch upon the laws. With the support of the laws, he would not be able to reach the next level. After all, a pseudo-surpassing technique was a pseudo-surpassing technique.
"The Yin-Yang Chaos Cave Divine Light requires 840 years to reach Level Five because I haven't touched the Great Way of Yin and Yang yet. I can't cut down on the time required to cultivate it. But on the other hand, isn't the process of cultivating the Yin-Yang Chaos Cave Divine Light the process of touching the Great Way of Yin and Yang?
It was not until now that Shi Xuan finally understood the importance of the Transcendence Level Celestial Arts. He also understood why they were so precious, rare, and sought after. Even though there were many Transcendence Level Celestial Arts that were not very different from the Transcendence Level Celestial Arts, and because they were essentially Transcendence Level Celestial Arts that required less time to cultivate and were easier to improve, the two could never be compared.
"The real transcending level celestial arts can allow a practitioner to feel the next level in advance, which is naturally very beneficial for his cultivation. It was not very obvious in the first three Heavenly Tribulations, but once he faces the fourth Heavenly Tribulation, which requires him to obtain the essence of the laws of the Great Way, it is equivalent to directly opening the door, leaving the practitioner with only the time to accumulate and polish."
"Because it has some characteristics of taking shortcuts, it should be derived from one's own fundamental law without exception, so that the strong and huge foundation can eliminate hidden dangers. Therefore, the real transcending level celestial arts can never be learned by outsiders." Apart from his own, the only real transcending level celestial art that Shi Xuan had seen was Kong Ran's Rainbow Divine Light. It also came from the foundation of one's own supreme celestial arts and from the gradual deepening of one's cultivation.
In addition, among the supreme celestial arts that Lady Yu and Wan'er cultivated, there were three celestial arts that could be directly cultivated. One was "Time Elapses", one was "All Things Rebirth", and one was "Annihilation of All Directions". They were not real transcending level celestial arts, but the "Annihilation of All Directions", which could be used to set up the "Two Worlds Annihilation of Ten Directions Great Formation", had a way to directly touch upon the laws of destruction and obtain a trace of its essence from the fourth to the fifth level.
"Together with the" Yin Yang Circulation Taiji Diagram "that is cultivated from the" Treasure Record ", I am confident that I can touch upon the laws of yin and yang in six hundred years and obtain a trace of its essence. After that, I estimate that I will be able to cultivate for another thousand years or so before attempting the fourth heavenly tribulation." Shi Xuan sighed in his heart. A supreme celestial art was indeed a supreme celestial art. Meng Nishang cultivated for a total of 1300 years in order to touch upon the laws of ice and snow and Taiyin. After that, she spent another 1200 years accumulating.
The "Yin Yang Circulation Taiji Diagram" was a celestial art that was cultivated from the third heavenly tribulation to the fourth decay tribulation of the "Treasure Record". It could be cultivated together with the natal magic treasure, the Taiji Diagram.
As for the other two celestial arts that were truly transcending levels, the "Four Appearances World Annihilation Sword" and the "Five Elements Immortal Vanquishing Sword", after 560 years of cultivation, were still about a hundred years away from the fourth level for the former and two hundred years for the latter.
As for the other celestial arts, except for a few that were still at the second level, they had all become third level celestial arts.
…
Shi Xuan's Vital Spirit entered his body. After adjusting his breath for a moment, he spat out a small white jade seal that was gentle and quaint. There was a mysterious seal on each side of the seal, and the mysterious pattern on the seal formed two seal characters, "Earth Trap". It was the magic treasure of the three-tribulation Yang God Venerable that was killed by the Qing Suo Sword.
Because Shi Xuan had activated it in advance, the power of the Qing Suo Sword was somewhat uncontrollable. Not only did it completely crush his Vital Spirit, but it also crushed the two Pure Yang magic treasures that were nourishing in his Vital Spirit.
Originally, Shi Xuan did not have much hope of getting more magic treasures, but he did not expect to find a three-tribulation Pure Yang magic treasure, the "Earth Trap Seal", in his storage bag. He had seized it after killing an enemy cultivator. Because the magic treasure refused to recognize him as its owner, he could not keep it in his Vital Spirit. He had to trap it and put it in his storage bag, and forcibly refine it in his free time every day. He did not expect that the magic treasure would escape and benefit Shi Xuan.
Grateful to Shi Xuan for avenging its former owner, the Earth Trap Seal was released without any hesitation, and let Shi Xuan leave a brand in its center. Then, he would refine and master it day and night.
In addition, Shi Xuan also had a fourth-level magic treasure, the "Void-revealing Mirror", on the body of the three-tribulation Yang God Venerable. No matter what kind of concealment celestial arts or invisible properties, as long as one's level was not higher than the mirror, he would immediately reveal himself when he was illuminated by the mirror. It could be considered the nemesis of some cultivation methods.
After refining the "Earth Trap Seal", Shi Xuan kept it in his Vital Spirit. There were now two pictures, a bottle, a sword, a bell, and a seal.
The two pictures were the Tai Chi Diagram and the Worldly Landscape Map.
After many years of refining, the Tai Chi Diagram already had seventeen layers of Enchantments, and was only one step away from perfection of the eighteenth layer. Because it was a natal magic treasure and belonged to the Yin and Yang attribute, it would take about three hundred years to refine the last layer of Enchantment. Moreover, its current power was not much different from that of an ordinary three-tribulation Pure Yang magic treasure.
Since entering the Vital Spirit, the Tai Chi Diagram had finally caught up with Shi Xuan's footsteps. It was similar to the Yin-Yang Dual Qi Bottle.
The Worldly Landscape Map currently had eleven layers of Enchantments, and it would take more than two hundred years to refine before it could wait for the second Heavenly Tribulation. In the past few hundred years, the world where Yin and Yang first separated had evolved into the Primitive Age, and produced the first thunderbolt and the first drop of rootless water. These two mysterious things were kept by Shi Xuan.
Among them, the first thunderbolt after the opening of the Spirit Space was given to Immortal Jiang by Shi Xuan, who then refined it into a Nine-Heavens Imperial Thunderbolt Seal to suppress the Formation Eye. Then, he returned the Nine-By-Nine Heavenly Thunder Gourd to Shi Xuan.
Because he remembered that Xu Zhenjun had contributed the Five-By-Nine Heavenly Thunder Gourd to Xu Zhenjun, he did not leave a single magic treasure behind, and now it belonged to him. Therefore, Shi Xuan planned to return the Five-By-Nine Heavenly Thunder Gourd to Xu Zhenjun. After all, he still had the Tai Chi Diagram, his natal magic treasure, which was both offensive and defensive. However, Xu Zhenjun firmly refused to accept it. Later, he had no choice but to use the Nine-By-Nine Heavenly Thunder Gourd for self-defense. With his nourishment, the Nine-By-Nine Heavenly Thunder Gourd, which had twelve layers of Enchantments, might be able to survive the second Heavenly Tribulation.
Without further delay, Shi Xuan sent a message to Zhang Zhengyan, who was guarding the sect, and to Chu Wan'er, who was consolidating her realm and practicing the Magic Arts. After giving them some instructions, he activated the space-time beacon of the Seven Immortals Great World and disappeared from his own cave residence.
…
In the Seven Immortals Great World, on top of Zhushan Mountain.
Nearly six hundred years ago, a terrifying thunderstorm broke out in the sky above Canglan City, which affected the entire Vast Thousand World and almost destroyed the world. Two of Zhushan's Seven Sons, Xia Jing and Zhantang, announced that Zhushan's Taoist temple would be closed for the time being. They would no longer preach in public and would no longer accept disciples. As for when Zhushan's Taoist temple would reopen, it was uncertain.
Regarding this matter, the four biggest sects and the Yin-Yang Sect, which had recently risen again, all breathed a sigh of relief. The backer of Zhushan's Taoist temple was too powerful, so it was best for them to keep a low profile. However, they were also very jealous. Xia Jing and Zhantang must have obtained great benefits from Zhushan Laozu, so they were in closed-door training to digest them.
"I beg Xia Zhenren and Zhan Zhenren to teach me Taoist techniques." A little boy kowtowed all the way to Zhushan from outside Anxi City. Every time he kowtowed, he would beg. His forehead was dripping with blood and stained with mud, which made him look bloody and dirty.
Since Zhushan's Taoist temple was closed for the time being, objects of Taoist techniques became precious again and could not be bought by ordinary people. The little boy, Zhuang Yukun, admired the Way of Immortals and traveled thousands of miles to ask the Zhenren of Zhushan's Taoist temple to teach him Taoist techniques. However, he was rejected before he could even see Xia Jing and the others.
He did not give up and begged for many days. He kowtowed until he fainted several times. Today was the fifth time he kowtowed to Zhushan.
Around him, many cultivators and mortals were watching. Some were also here to ask for Taoist techniques, while some were curious to find out why Zhushan's Taoist temple was closed for the time being … They were all moved by Zhuang Yukun's actions.
As if they could not bear it, a slightly low and beautiful female voice sounded, "Please go back. Zhushan's Taoist temple is closed because there is a flaw in the technique. It is not convenient for us to harm others. "The tone was unusually firm.
As soon as this was said, the crowd was in an uproar. The technique was flawed?! But didn't you all cultivate to the level of Immortal Soul Venerable?! No one had heard of anyone who died from Qigong Deviation because of the flaws in the two Great Ways of Zhushan! If there was such a flaw, didn't the four biggest sects also have it?!
Zhuang Yukun continued kowtowing and moving forward without stopping. To him, even if there was a flaw, it was still a Great Way that led directly to the Immortal Soul!
Xia Jing saw that the crowd was discussing and feeling uneasy. After a moment of silence, she said, "About the technique, more than five hundred years ago, teacher promised to teach the orthodox Great Way of Immortal Soul publicly. However, one day in heaven is equivalent to ten years on earth. We still need to wait for some time." She found an excuse for Shi Xuan's slip of the tongue.
"The Zhushan Laozu who ascended to the Immortal World descended to impart Immortal Techniques to the mortal world?"
"Is it that Zhushan Laozu who shook the Greater Thousand Realms, possessed remarkable abilities, and had boundless magic power?"
"Five hundred years ago, could it be that thunderbolt?"
Amidst the noisy discussions, a green figure walked leisurely in mid-air with his hands behind his back. Every step he took didn't seem to be big, but he crossed over a thousand miles. Before he arrived, a calm voice sounded, "Xia Jing, Zhantang, you guys announce to the world that one month later, Zhushan's Taoist temple will reopen. I will teach the orthodox Great Way of Immortal Soul and open the door to the Great Way for this world."
"We will obey teacher's decree." Xia Jing, Zhantang, and the others answered in unison with incomparable excitement.
