Ancestral Master Tai Heng was slightly surprised to see that this spirit tree was brimming with vitality, but it didn't release any magic power. Moments later, he saw that a fruit had grown on the tree, and he had some speculations about what was going on.
At this moment, Hong You walked over. Just Now, he had also sensed the commotion here. He thought that another fellow Daoist had woken up, but he didn't expect to see a spirit tree instead. He took a few glances at it and said, "This fellow Daoist's lifespan is coming to an end. Even if he escaped, he wouldn't be able to cultivate for long, so he used a special method to avoid the tribulation and re-cultivate."
Old Ancestor Tai Heng nodded and praised, "This technique is indeed mysterious. It can actually sacrifice one's own cultivation technique to gain new life and steal a trace of the secrets of heaven. It can be considered as a superior Daoist technique."
Hong You said, "Besides the mysterious technique, he must have borrowed a suitable treasure. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to do this. In terms of cultivation technique, he is also an old member of the Nine Continents. "
Old Ancestor Tai Heng nodded and said, "He is also an ancestor of a sect."
As the two of them spoke, the fruit shook. Then, a crisp sound rang out, and the stem fell to the ground. It suddenly split open, and a little boy with eyes like stars walked out from it. He wore a Daoist robe, but he didn't have any magic power on him.
Tai Heng and Hong You looked at each other and withdrew their auras. At the same time, they projected their images into the world. This way, even mortals could see them.
As soon as the little boy saw the two of them, he cupped his hands and said, "I's cultivation has dissipated in a day. I've embarrassed myself in front of the two of you."
Tai Heng and Hong You bowed in return.
Old Ancestor Tai Heng said, "Fellow Daoist, it's already good that you escaped today. It won't be difficult for you to cultivate again in the future."
Hong You nodded.
Both of them understood that although this person had abandoned all his cultivation in order to avoid the Death Calamity, and he would have to cultivate all over again in order to recover his original cultivation, his original memories and experience were still there. Moreover, this body had been reconstructed, and it could be said that his potential was even greater than before. As long as he did not lack external objects, it would not be long before he could cultivate back to his original state.
As for the severing of the Daoist technique, it was for those who cultivated later. This person didn't die and was still the same person, just with a different body. Therefore, the extreme Daoist technique wouldn't fall on him.
Old Ancestor Tai Heng said, "How should we address you now?"
The child said, "I avoided death and stole the heavens, only then did I regain my vitality. There's no need to mention my original name, just call me Pan Qi."
Old Ancestor Tai Heng didn't have much magic power, so he couldn't go anywhere. He thanked them for their help and went to find a remote place to cultivate in the future.
Hong You looked at the remaining statues and knew that only a few people would be able to return. He said, "This realm is just a temporary place for me to live. Once all of this is over, it probably won't exist anymore. Where does Fellow Daoist plan to go?"
Old Ancestor Tai Heng stroked his beard and said, "Perhaps I'll go to the Mountain and Sea Realm and see how the sects are doing. After that, I'll find a suitable place to set up an Immortal's cave."
He had also heard that his disciple Yi Jiuyang's reincarnation had continued the Yaoyin Clan, and he was very pleased. However, he was now a prime disciple, so he didn't go up to greet him. Fortunately, it was convenient to travel between the Heavens and the Myriad Realms, so it wouldn't be difficult to find a quiet place to cultivate.
Hong You said, "Forgive me for being blunt, but at your level, it's difficult to go any further."
Old Ancestor Tai Heng sighed. "Even if it's difficult, we still have a chance. Now that the Daoist magic has been severed, it will be even more difficult for future generations to reach our level of cultivation."
Hong You didn't say anything else. He didn't know if he could reach the Upper Realm, but the only way to have the qualifications to talk about opportunities in the Upper Realm was by severing his past and future bodies. He had wasted a lot of time talking, so he cupped his fists and returned to his Immortal's cave to meditate.
In the Nameless World, Gao Chengtu stood on the trunk of a huge tree, looking at the stars in the sky.
According to the rising and falling of the sun and moon, another fifty years had passed. However, he knew that no matter how many years had passed, if he had the chance to go back, it wouldn't necessarily be the same. Perhaps not much time had passed Just Now, or perhaps even more time had passed. If it was the latter, he didn't know how his old friends and relatives in the Hai Sheng Nation were doing.
Ah Tan carefully walked over from afar and said respectfully, "Teacher, everyone is here."
Gao Chengtu said, "Good, good." Then he walked along the trunk into a huge hollow in the tree, where more than a hundred people stood, all of whom were disciples who had listened to his Dao. Many years had passed, and all of them had grown up. Some of them had outstanding latent talent, and their cultivation bases were already catching up to his own.
However, in all his attempts to discuss the Dao with them, he hadn't been able to find the answers he was looking for. In fact, most of them couldn't even compare to a cultivator from the Mountain and Sea Realm who had Just Now Stepped into the Dao.
Later, he came to realize that the people of the Mountain and Sea Realm had never seen the wide expanse of Heaven and Earth. They didn't know how insignificant they were. Furthermore, they had been living in this tiny world ever since they were born, which limited their ability to think.
As for the disciples of the Mountain and Sea Realm, they knew that they were just one of the many Heavens. There were countless almighty cultivators who lived above the Highest Heavens, and therefore, they had a very clear understanding of their own existence.
Because of that, he decided to leave the Mountain and continue to seek the Dao in the Outside Realm. Therefore, he made his decision known to the disciples.
"Teacher, you're leaving?"
The disciples couldn't believe what they were hearing. Over the past fifty years, Gao Chengtu had become their spiritual pillar of support. Originally, they had assumed that they would listen to his Dao just as they had in the past, but now that he was leaving, many of them began to panic, and began to try to persuade him to stay.
Gao Chengtu stood his ground. "The spirit trees I've left behind are more than enough for the people of the Mountain and Sea Realm to flourish," he said.
The tribe's population had continued to expand. Originally, the mountain had not been able to hold them all, so they had used the spirit trees to fill in the land.
At first, it had been very difficult. Gao Chengtu had to personally dive down to the bottom of the water and use his magical power to stimulate the growth of the spirit trees. Then, he would lay down the soil and stone on top of the trees. Eventually, the disciples were able to use their magical power. Just Now, things were much easier. The land that could be inhabited was now three times larger than before, and the tribe was no longer in danger of survival.
Ah Tan was as calm as ever. He stepped forward and saluted. "Teacher, where are you planning to go?"
Gao Chengtu said, "I want to see if I can find the Gate of the Two Realms and go to the Outer Realm. At the same time, I can also look for other tribes that might exist. Are any of you willing to go with me?"
Ever since he came here, he had been thinking that there must be a reason why the Gate of the Two Realms led to this place. Logically speaking, there should be a Gate of the Two Realms here. If he could find it, he might even be able to travel to other places.
Ah Tan said loudly, "I'm willing to go with you, teacher."
As soon as he said this, some of the disciples also voiced their agreement.
Seeing that Gao Chengtu had made up his mind, no matter how reluctant they were, they could only let him go. After some discussion, about ten people decided to go with him.
This did not mean that there were no more people willing to go with him, but that the tribe's hunting and gathering mostly depended on these disciples who had learned the Dao, so it was impossible for too many of them to go at once.
Three days later, Gao Chengtu and the ten disciples used a large log as a raft and floated towards the depths of the vast ocean under the eyes of the people of the tribe.
Although they were riding on a wooden raft, it was actually a large log that had grown for a full fifty years. There were naturally tree holes on the raft for them to rest on, and there were also epiphytic straw mushrooms for replenishment when necessary.
However, Gao Chengtu and the disciples who followed this time did not need to eat ordinary food, because with their realm, they were equivalent to cultivators of the Core Formation, so they only needed to breathe and regulate their breath.
This was also the most difficult thing for Gao Chengtu to understand. Where did his strength come from? It was just that after so many years, he still could not understand this level.
He even guided these disciples to think in this direction, but most of them thought that Gao Chengtu was the God in the prophecy. Since he was a God, wasn't it natural that he had this ability?
Although Gao Chengtu could not find the same path, he thought that this was also good. Without this obstacle, these disciples would not have too many obstacles in their cultivation, and they might even be able to continue to advance. As for how far they could go, it was hard to say, but the biggest problem for people in this world was survival. As long as they passed this obstacle, no one would think about these things.
He turned his head and looked towards the depths of the Boundless Ocean, hoping that this time, he would be able to find the answer he wanted.
Zhang Yan stood in the main hall of Qinghuan Palace, looking forward with his sleeves behind his back.
At this moment, the visualized image that he had conjured using his mana had become somewhat unfamiliar. This was because he could not comprehend what he had received yet. If there were no accidents, this should be the power left behind by an unknown powerhouse.
If his cultivation increased again, and the visualized image had no more reason to invest in it, then it would soon return to the appearance that it had Just Now.
He did not want to see this situation, because only by seeing more unknowns could he continue to advance on the path of Dao.
As he gradually deepened his cultivation and visualization, he unraveled more and more unknowns, but there was a problem here. The more he did so, the more the Great Dao in front of him extended and expanded.
He knew that this was because he had not been able to solve the fundamental problem.
If this continued, although his mana could continue to increase, his realm could only stagnate in the second stage, and the further he went, the harder it would be to find the True Dao.
This was just like the cultivator Du Jue. No matter how brilliant his mana was, no matter how much he improved, he could not break through that barrier.
He pondered deeply, perhaps he should change his method of pursuing, and in the Spirit Refinement realm, the most direct method was to fuse mana with mana.
However, as soon as this thought arose, the visualized image that had been standing there all this time turned to look at him, then stretched out a finger and pointed at him.
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed slightly, and with just a thought, he brought it along and escaped into the Spirit's Will.
This should be his urgent desire to peek into the upper realm, which caused the visualized image to take the initiative to attack him. This was because cultivators could only see more of the Great Dao through battle.
Judging from the Weili that had been accepted, it must have come from a higher realm. At this moment, this visualized image could be seen as a projection of part of a Great Virtue's power.
If they fought outside, Bu Xu Tian's many realms would probably collapse.
Fortunately, the visualized image was a manifestation of his heart, and it was one with him, so he could pull it into the Spirit's Will, and at this point, he could fight it freely. With a thought, he also pointed out a finger, and an endless stream of Weili immediately met it.
