The Nirvana Daoist used to be a disciple of the Lifeless Heaven Maitreya Buddha, but he failed to obtain the Lifeless White Lotus Calamity Scripture. Later, he had a fortuitous encounter and obtained a supreme Taoist cultivation method. He combined it with his own Buddhist teachings and created a unique way to fuse the two into one, neither Buddhism nor Taoism. With this, he became a Golden Immortal. Moreover, he obtained the Innate Nirvana Dao Seed, which appeared only second to the Karma Dao Seed in the Buddhist teachings. After that, he left the Lifeless Heaven and opened up a Taoist field in the Thoughtless World.
There were seven half-step Golden Immortals under him, not counting those like Shen Huang who were just listening.
This was all that Shi Xuan knew about the Nirvana Daoist, which was common knowledge in the Myriad Heavens and Realms.
"It's really him." One of the two Daozu that Shi Xuan had locked onto was the Nirvana Daoist. When he heard the confirmation from Lady Yu, he did not feel shocked or surprised. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Lady Yu said with a smile, as if the cold tone just now was an illusion of Shi Xuan. "The reason why I am telling you now, in addition to the innate spiritual item concealing you, is that when you become a Celestial Being, the range of your travel is not limited to your own realm. If you encounter the disciples of the Nirvana Daoist, you need to be careful. But don't make any unnecessary moves. If you want to start planning to deal with the Nirvana Daoist now, even if you have the innate spiritual item concealing you, he will still be able to sense you."
"This disciple knows his limits." Shi Xuan also suppressed his thoughts. Even if he was a second-tribulation mighty figure, if there was a cultivator below the level of the Lord Of Heaven who wanted to plot against him, he would not be able to escape his senses, let alone the Jinxian Daoist.
After chatting with Granny Yu for a while about her experiences during this period of time, Shi Shuan asked her about the Heavenly Tribulation and the Blight Tribulation that he had discussed with his Master Mo Yuan.
Lady Yu smiled and pondered for a moment. "The three difficulties of cultivation, Jindan, Primordial Spirit, and Fusing Dao, are all rooted in one's nature and path. Each has its own fate. Therefore, no matter which cultivation method or which family's elders, they only talk a little about it. They focus on the details after taking the first step, not how to take the first step. They are afraid that the disciples will have a barrier of knowledge and regard others as themselves. If that happens, it will be extremely difficult to succeed."
Shi Xuan nodded. That was indeed the case. For example, how to break through the Hidden Latch of Life and Death when one was still a Primordial Spirit was recorded in detail in the Treasure Record. However, there were only a few sentences about how to find the opportunity to break through the illusory obsession and step into the Hidden Latch of Life and Death.
"Moreover, I was once half a step away from Fusing Dao. I have never set foot on this realm, so there are many things I don't understand. I can only give you one thing. In the future, when you have no way to go, think about the foundation of cultivation. Hehe, remember, before Fusing Dao, there will be all kinds of 'external' methods. Don't be blinded by them. "
"I will remember." Granny Yu's last sentence was also recorded in the "Treasure Record". It was, "The Heavens are jealous of the Unity of the Way, and all the 'Outer Ways' perform." Regarding this, Shi Xuan did not really understand, but judging from Granny Yu's expression, it seemed that she did not intend to explain in detail.
However, since Lady Yu could say this, it proved that she had crossed this barrier before she reincarnated. No wonder it was rumored that Yu Yutian was second to none among the Half-step Golden Immortals in Shenxiao Palace. She was only one step away from Fusing Dao. At this realm, she could still resolutely reincarnate. It was really admirable.
Lady Yu seemed to be in a very dangerous place. She did not say anything more and cut off the connection.
Shi Xuan took back the Cosmic Bell and played with it in his hand. As he was in deep thought, the clear and melodious sound kept ringing and time swayed like water.
…
Outside the The Great World, there were still Perfected People, Lord Of Heaven, Buddhas, and others coming and going. It was extraordinarily lively and there were countless of them.
After Xia Jing officially joined the sect, Shi Xuan came to the Five Elements Sect according to Lady Yu's order to thank Kong Ran in person.
However, before Shi Xuan could enter the Heavenspan Realm, someone suddenly sent a message to him through Karma. It was the azure wolf, whom Shi Xuan hadn't seen in a long time. Years ago, Shi Xuan had punished him by having him face the wall for a few hundred years. Later, when the Daohua Sect had been reestablished, his parents, Gu Canghai and Wei Peining, had yet to reach the Nascent Divinity Realm, and only had an immortal spell formation to protect the sect. Because of that, Shi Xuan had sent him to the Daohua Sect to be their guardian beast.
Letting go of the barrier, Shi Xuan asked curiously, "Green Wolf, what's the matter?"
"The Sect Leader's wife passed away when she broke through the Hidden Latch of Life and Death." Green Wolf was a little sad. With its cultivation realm, it must have eaten and drank well in the Daohua Gate for thousands of years. It was full of sincerity when it was worshipped. In addition, they were the parents of its master in this life, so it naturally had some feelings for it.
Shi Xuan was silent for a moment and sighed softly. After leaving the Yuanmang World, his contact with his parents had not been cut off, so he was very clear about their situation. Gu Canghai had gone through two reincarnations and finally reached the Primordial Spirit with the revival of Taoism and passed through two heavenly tribulations. Wei Peining, on the other hand, was slightly worse. She had already reincarnated four times, but she had not found the opportunity to step into the Hidden Latch of Life and Death.
Originally, with Shi Xuan's current cultivation realm and realm, it would be easy for him to extend Wei Peining's life by tens of thousands of years. For example, he could make her a deity or open up a cave so that her life could be combined with the Mini Chiliocosm, just like what Shi Xuan was doing now. Unfortunately, Wei Peining also had a firm heart of Taoism. She rejected Shi Xuan's various suggestions and vowed to rely on herself to achieve the Primordial Spirit.
This time, she seemed to be prepared to die for a good cause. Twenty years ago, she left a bloodline for Gu Canghai and gave birth to a pair of children, Gu Minzhi and Gu Liuzhi. Then, she adjusted her state of mind for ten years and came out to travel. According to Shi Xuan's calculations, she was looking for the opportunity to achieve the Primordial Spirit.
With Shi Xuan's divination ability, he was naturally able to calculate that whether Wei Peining could step into the Hidden Gate of Life and Death would depend on this period of time. But who knew that she would die in there.
Regarding this, Shi Xuan was also helpless. Unless he was the Jinxian Daoist, there was no way to fish out the True Spirit that had fallen in the Hidden Gate of Life and Death and let it reincarnate.
At this time, he felt a sudden inspiration. Shi Xuan had confirmed the death of Wei Peining. It seemed that outside of the Great World, the Heaven's Divination was suppressed, so the reaction was slightly slower.
With a flash of purple light, Shi Xuan appeared in the main hall of the Daohua Gate.
There were thousands of soul lamps in the side hall. Gu Canghai's appearance didn't change much. He stood at the door of the side hall, looking at the extinguished soul lamp in the center. He was lost in thought and didn't notice Shi Xuan's arrival.
And the tall man that Green Wolf had transformed into was on the side. When he saw Shi Xuan coming, he immediately bowed down and said, "Green Wolf pays respect to Master."
The young man and woman beside him looked at Shi Xuan curiously. It seemed that they didn't expect that the powerful Uncle Green Wolf would be so respectful to this young man in a green robe. But from the way he called him "Master", both of them thought of one person, their elder brother that they had never seen before.
Both of them were around 20 years old. Gu Minzhi was handsome, handsome, and delicate, revealing a bit of arrogance. Gu Liuzhi was full of youth and beautiful. One could vaguely see the shadows of Gu Canghai and Wei Peining.
"Get up. You've been loyal to your duty all these years. Very good." Shi Xuan lightly praised Green Wolf.
Hearing Shi Xuan's voice, Gu Canghai came back to his senses. He turned to look at Shi Xuan and said sadly, "You're here."
"Father, I'm sorry for your loss." Shi Xuan was a little melancholy.
Gu Minzhi curled her lips. Regardless of her father and brother's conversation, she interrupted, "It's all because of cultivation. Otherwise, father and mother would be so loving. How could they be separated by life and death, and even spend so little time together!" Her tone was mostly complaining, but not sad.
Gu Canghai turned back and glared at him, but it didn't scare him. He still murmured something. With Shi Xuan's celestial sense, he naturally heard it clearly, "Since I can remember, the number of times I've seen mother is less than ten times!"
"Big brother, don't you have great mana and supernatural power? Can you bring mother back to life? "Gu Liuzhi was a little sorrowful as he pleaded, but most of it was because he was curious.
Seeing that Shi Xuan was silent, Gu Canghai smiled bitterly and said, "This is your younger brother, Gu Minzhi, and your younger sister, Gu Liuzhi. After Peining gave birth to them, when they were three years old, she began to meditate in seclusion to adjust their state of mind. After she came out of seclusion, she went out to travel." The implication was that the two of them actually didn't have much affection for Wei Peining.
Then, he sighed softly to the two of them, "If it wasn't for cultivation, how could your mother and I have been husband and wife for several lifetimes? Even if we didn't get together much, the time we spent together is much more than that of ordinary couples."
Hearing Gu Canghai's words, Gu Liuzhi nodded with a sad expression, while Gu Minzhi turned her head to the side in disdain.
Before Shi Xuan could answer Gu Liuzhi's question, he sensed a Three-tribulation Earthly Immortal approaching quickly with strong malice, so he asked, "Who is this?"
"It's Xiao Ziyuan, the descendant of the Xiao family who escaped from the capital." Gu Canghai recognized the newcomer from the immortal sense shared by Shi Xuan. "He has actually passed the third Heavenly Tribulation?!"
Green Wolf explained, "Xiao Ziyuan became a Human Immortal 600 years ago, and then he passed two Heavenly Tribulations. He has been attacking the Daohua Gate, but because the Gate Master is also a Second Tribulation Cultivator and has an immortal array to protect the mountain, he has been in a stalemate. I didn't expect him to pass the third Heavenly Tribulation without anyone knowing, and it seems that his cultivation has stabilized! Fortunately, Master is here. "
…
With his hands behind his back, Xiao Ziyuan stepped toward the Daohua Gate in the air, and there seemed to be a flame brewing in his calm state of mind.
"Back then, I endured humiliation and escaped from the capital. I didn't stay to live and die with everyone, so that one day, I could break through Daohua Mountain and restore the capital."
"With this determination, I have advanced by leaps and bounds, breaking through all kinds of barriers one after another, and now I have finally reached the Three-tribulation Earthly Immortal Realm, which even my ancestor failed to reach. I want to see how that half-baked immortal array and the Two-tribulation Yang Spirit can stop me!"
Looking at Dao Hua Mountain from afar, he murmured to himself, "I didn't come here today to prove how powerful I, Xiao Ziyuan, am, or how much of a genius I am. I came here to tell everyone in the world that the Xiao family will take back what we lost with our own hands!"
With full concentration, he was about to fly to Daohua Mountain and punch.
But at this time, a Golden Bridge flew out, stopping his escape light, and he landed on the bridge.
Xiao Ziyuan looked at the rolling Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water around him, and the blooming Golden Lotuses. He was stunned, but before he could do anything, the Taiji diagram wrapped him up and flew back to Shi Xuan's hand.
Shi Xuan gently shook the Taiji diagram, and the Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water exploded, and Xiao Ziyuan immediately turned into ashes.
Shocked by this scene, Green Wolf, Gu Canghai, Gu Minzhi, and Gu Liuzhi were all stunned. How could their old enemy, who had passed the third Heavenly Tribulation and had made great progress in cultivation, die so easily?
After a long time, Gu Minzhi came to her senses and said bitterly, "Brother, you are so powerful, can you resurrect mother?"
