Northern Heaven Cold Abyss, Clear Serenity Cave, Lingbo Small World.
Liu Yan tied her hair with a silver ring and wore a white robe. Her gaze was restrained as she sat on a jade lotus. Below her was a clear pond.
She had been in seclusion here for nearly five hundred years.
Because she had received the teachings of the superior techniques and her own temperament, after such a long period of cultivation, no matter if it was her cultivation or Qi, it had long been polished to perfection, without any flaws.
At this moment, she was only missing the root fruit from the upper realm.
Although the School of Xuanyuan had passed down secret techniques on how to find the root fruit, she still had to rely on herself in the end. In the past, there were many people with extraordinary talent who clearly had the superior secret techniques, but they were always hesitating before the heavy barriers and could not find the right door.
Even though this step wasn't as dangerous and unfathomable as an ordinary breakthrough, if one's state of mind was slightly unstable, then one might not have the chance to see the true outcome. If one suffered a setback and became dispirited, then one's path towards the Dao might come to an end.
Relying on her own determination and willpower, after a long time, she finally guarded the heavenly passes one by one with her Qi. In the consciousness, the originally unpredictable root fruit had gradually revealed itself.
She understood that she could not hesitate at this moment. Otherwise, if she wanted to find the root fruit again, even if she started all over again, she might not be able to succeed. Thus, she made up her mind and suddenly went up to welcome it!
In an instant, there was a loud bang in her mind. Then, she felt her heart was extremely calm and empty. She was in a trance as if she was one with the world. In the next moment, she felt a clear spring flowing through her heart. The karma that was tangled in the past was washed away. Her mind also felt incomparably clear, as if everything had been reborn.
She slowly opened her eyes and slowly released her aura. The surrounding clear water was affected and rippled slightly. Then, water droplets after water droplets floated up from the pond like a string of jade beads. They gathered more and more and gradually rose to the top of the cave. From afar, it looked like a curtain of rain was hanging down, and there was a sweet sound coming from it. In the pond, white lotuses were also blooming, the fragrance seeped into the heart, and the room was filled with light.
At this moment, as soon as he thought about it, he felt the magical power surging towards him. The cave was like a boat, riding on the waves, swaying with the waves. He raised his hand gently, and for a moment, he felt as if the power of heaven and earth was in his palm, and he could move it according to his will. How could he not know that he had successfully severed his mortal body, and that his lifespan would exceed ten thousand years?
Her thoughts turned and she unconsciously recited, "The Mysterious Ripple Jade Platform takes the spiritual seed, the light congeals to reflect the clear sky. Sweet Dew Cleansing Jade Pill, Celestial River Flowing Dress, Celestial Shadow Follows! "
With a flick of her sleeves, she emerged from the clear pool. With a slight thought, she was already outside the small world.
After a cultivator enters mortal shedding, their mana and Qi are perfect. Therefore, even though she walked outside, there was still no movement inside or outside the small world.
Those disciples didn't know that their masters had already entered this realm without a sound.
She stood on top of Zhao You Mountain and looked down. At this moment, the world in her eyes seemed to have changed. Everything seemed to not be as eternal as before, but constantly changing.
Right at this moment, she suddenly sensed something in her heart. She unconsciously raised her head to look at the sky and felt that there was an aura that was above everything. If it was said that she had already jumped out from the waves of the world, then the person behind the aura would be the sun in the sky that looked down on all the worlds in the world.
At the same time, she felt that the Qi was very familiar, and her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise. "Master?" At this moment, how could she not understand that when she was in seclusion, her master had already entered that indescribable realm. She couldn't help but feel a heartfelt joy in her heart. With a thought, clear light rose under her feet, and she faced the endless Milky Way and headed towards the void.
Not long after, a huge palace appeared in the sky. She had been here before, and knew that this was where the Green Sky Hall was located. But looking at it now, it was different. As she moved forward, she suddenly felt her body stop for a moment. When she looked again, she realized that this place was no longer the original world, she had clearly entered another world.
She knew that this must be the means of her Master, so she followed the majestic Qi dynamic. Not long after, she landed in front of a magnificent palace and walked inside. She arrived at the main hall in a flash and looked up. She saw a Taoist in a black robe sitting on a dais. Above him was a canopy of Qi that reflected the sky and the world. Behind him, there was a five-colored True Light that flowed like a wheel. Beside him stood a young Taoist.
She suppressed her surging emotions and came up to pay her respects. She said, "Disciple greets Master, and wishes Master to enter the upper realm."
Zhang Yan smiled and nodded. He said, "Disciple, you don't have to stand on ceremony. I am also very happy that you were able to sever your mortal body." The young Taoist beside him straightened his face and bowed. He said, "Greetings, Senior Sister.
Liu Yanyi thought for a moment and asked softly, "Are you Junior Martial Brother Fu?"
The young Taoist said, "My name is Cen Xiao now."
Zhang Yan said with a smile, "I have already opened up your Junior Martial Brother's past consciousness. It's just that his cultivation is not enough, and his mortal fate has not ended, so he is still using his present life name."
Liu Yanyi revealed a look of concern. She asked, "Master, have the two Junior Martial Sisters and Junior Martial Brother Han returned to the sect?
Zhang Yan said, "Their fate has not arrived yet. Moreover, they have other matters to deal with. Even if they force themselves to enter Dao, they will only invite disaster."
Liu Yanyi had been in seclusion for hundreds of years. Just Now, she had not come out for a long time, so she did not know what had happened in the inner and outer realms. Now that she heard the word disaster, her expression froze.
Zhang Yan said, "It's not difficult for you to know everything that has happened in the outer realms after you go back. I won't talk about it one by one here. Now that you have come out of seclusion, do you have any plans?"
Liu Yanyi thought for a moment and said, "Master entrusted the Xuanyuan branch to me. However, after two or three generations, there are few disciples who have achieved anything. This is my fault. From now on, I am willing to urge the disciples to work harder in their cultivation."
Zhang Yan shook his head slightly and said, "The general trend of Heaven's secrets is not something that a human can go against, but it is not your fault."
In fact, in these years, not only the Xuanyuan branch did not have any outstanding people, but the entire Qincang School and even the sects in the nine continents were the same. On the contrary, there were few outstanding people in Zhang Yan's generation.
On the surface, it was not difficult to find the reason. In the past, the spiritual opportunity in the nine continents had gradually declined, and the internal and external struggles were fierce. Everyone knew that if you did not advance, you would fall behind. Those who were able to obtain a position in the sect had talent and temperament that far surpassed their peers.
Now, spiritual opportunity was abundant, and the cultivation of the Dao did not lack external things. It seemed to be very beneficial to cultivation, but in terms of temperament, it was a bit more slack, and a bit less courageous.
However, if one really thought about it, such a situation was actually quite normal.
Things in the world rose and fell like the waves. There were always ups and downs. Although the sects were in a bit of a slump, it was only in the past one or two thousand years. In tens of thousands of years, looking back, this short period of time was nothing more than a small splash in the surging river. It really did not count for much.
If the Mountain and Sea Realm were like the Vast Heavens, which had existed for millions of years, it would not be difficult for the outstanding people who emerged from it to surpass the latter.
However, he knew that as the workings of the Heavens continued to revolve, the Zhou Huanyuan Jade would soon appear in the world. Because of that, more outstanding people would appear, and what followed would be a Karmic Tribulation. With the exception of True Yang Cultivators, everyone would be caught up in it. Even if you went into secluded meditation to avoid the world, it would be useless. The only way to avoid it was to go with the flow.
He said, "There is no need for you to worry too much about the affairs of the sect's disciples. Everyone has their own destiny. However, the Heavens will change in the future. Everyone under the True Yang Realm will be caught up in it, and it will not be easy to avoid it. As my Eldest Disciple, I cannot allow anything to happen to you."
As he said that, he sent a wisp of his consciousness over and said, "You can do as I say in the future. You have a strong foundation, so as long as you are careful with your words and actions, you will be able to escape from this calamity."
After receiving the divine will, Liu Yan studied it for a moment, and then realized what was going on. She said earnestly, "Disciple will obey Master's instructions."
Zhang Yan extended his finger, and a jade slip appeared. "After the Mortal Shedding Realm," he said, "it is a completely different world. This is a bit of Master's cultivation experience. You may take a look."
Her disciple cultivated one of the Five Arts and Three Scriptures of the Qincang School, the Xuanze True Subtlety Upper Cave Art. It was a top magic, and once one's cultivation reached a certain level, it would not be difficult to sever the past and future bodies. However, if one was not a direct disciple of the Sect Leader, there would be many difficulties that would be difficult to overcome.
Fortunately, considering the level of his cultivation base, he could tell at a glance what difficulties his disciple might encounter in the future. Furthermore, this jade slip contained various secret techniques on how to overcome them.
Liu Yan accepted it solemnly and said, "Many thanks, Master, for this technique."
Zhang Yan said, "After Master established the Azure Sky Hall, it has become another world. Before you leave the mountain gate, you may stay here to cultivate. If you have any questions, you may come and ask me."
Liu Yan happily agreed. Ever since the disciples' cultivation base had improved, Zhang Yan would usually teach them by imparting them. He rarely taught them face to face. If she could learn from him from time to time, the gains would not be comparable to cultivating on one's own.
Zhang Yan gave her a few more words of advice, and ordered her to consolidate her cultivation base.
Cen Xiao thought for a moment, and asked, "Master, Just Now, you said that once the tribulation arrives, everyone will be in it. Does that mean that disciple will not be able to escape?"
Zhang Yan smiled and nodded, "That is indeed the case. However, Master also said that one must follow the general trend."
Cen Xiao was puzzled, "Then what is the general trend?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "You do not need to worry about this now. You only need to cultivate."
Cen Xiao bowed and replied, "Yes."
In fact, he was not afraid of this. He knew that he was the disciple of a True Yang almighty. If even he could not protect his life, then no one in the world would be able to escape.
At this moment, Zhang Yan walked towards Bu Xutian with a deep gaze. In the future tribulation that he saw, his disciples might be dragged into it.
This was actually only a possibility in the future, but it was not certain that it would happen. However, he could not underestimate it. If he could find a way to eliminate the cause and effect that would affect the future, or divert the general trend, then he could easily avoid it.
However, he knew that if he did this, then the other great figures would do the same as well. It was even to the extent that the Fiendish Devils and the Heavenly Devils would use all sorts of methods to scheme against him. This would cause numerous secrets of the heavens to be thrown into disorder, causing it to be even more difficult to deduce clearly. Thus, there were still numerous dangers present here.
However, if a True Yang cultivator forcefully protected his disciples, then few could do anything about it. However, the changes of Heaven's Mysteries were not only temporary, but also long-term. He could avoid it this time, but he might not be able to do it again. Thus, the best way was to enter the world to train and find a way to eliminate the current tribulation.
