At this time, Shi Babao and Fang Jiufu were both in seclusion. It was unknown how long they would have to stay in seclusion before they could come out and cross the immortal tribulation.
After advancing to the Earth Immortal level in the 73rd year of the Dayan, he had long become full of spirit and energy. He no longer needed to maintain the state of clay sculpture, so he recruited a few Void Step and Dao Integration cultivators who liked to refine formations as his disciples so that the Four Sacred Sect could continue.
Qin Di walked around the Immortal Mist Peak and greeted the elders one by one.
Qin Gaolan and his third uncle Qin Guangyuan were both at the third level of Dao Integration, and their cultivation progress was very smooth.
After arriving at Spiritual Mountain, his father Qin Guangling's cultivation speed had increased a lot, and his mother Qin Wang had also reached the peak of the Nascent Soul realm and was in seclusion to advance to the Void Step.
Qin Di's two Senior Sisters, Sun Yunqing and Ai Yunsheng, had already reached the Void Step Intermediate Stage. Seeing that there was hope for them to advance to the Dao Integration Stage, the two of them were very happy. They often visited their master, Lan Xingchang, to ask her about the things to take note of in their cultivation.
No matter who it was, after cultivating for four thousand years, they had basically severed their mortal ties. Even if Madam Wang Qin summoned the members of the Qin Family to ask questions from time to time, those juniors who were summoned by her were all cultivators and could not be regarded as ordinary people.
Zheng Xingping was already a second-level Dao Integration cultivator and helped manage the immortal fields. His days were very fulfilling.
Perfected Master Li and Perfected Master Li were still at the peak of the Void Step and had not yet advanced to the Dao Integration.
Qin Di personally refined flawless Great Dao pills and put them in a jade bottle.
The two Perfected Masters were very grateful and did not know what to say. This was because Qin Di was already a famous Earth Immortal, and the gap between them was getting bigger and bigger. It was really touching that he could personally refine pills and come over to ask about their well-being.
Perfected Master Li said, "Sect Leader, I have read a lot of books in your Epang Palace recently and feel that it is very rewarding!"
Qin Di smiled and said, "Yes, at least it can broaden my horizons."
Perfected Master Li said, "I am a fire cultivator and Perfected Master Li is a water cultivator. There are all kinds of immortal techniques in your books, and every jade slip is a treasure. Where did you get them?"
Qin Di smiled and said, "I collected them from the Heavenly Abode!"
He did not explain in detail because in the Jade Pearl Immortal Palace, he had dug up many spirit immortal corpses and obtained thousands of spirit immortal Grotto-heavens. He could not open them himself, but after a portion of them were extracted by the little peach tree, the Grotto-heavens slowly collapsed. During this period, he had gotten the little peach tree to rescue many golden books and jade slips. All of them were placed in the library of Epang Palace. Because of this, the contents of the collection were extremely rich.
To this day, he had only opened a little more than a hundred Grotto-Heavens. There were still a large number of Grotto-Heavens left, and they were like goose and duck eggs that he had stored away for the future. He felt that the spiritual energy on Ethereal Immortal Peak was already rich enough, and forcefully opening up the abode like this would cause the abode to collapse in the end. It was truly not a very good method, and it felt like it was a bit of a waste of god's given gifts.
He wanted to let the little peach tree slowly decipher the Grotto-Heaven, but the little peach tree was preparing to advance, so he was too lazy to do it.
Therefore, he could only collect the grotto-heaven first and think of a way after he advanced to the Spirit Immortal Stage.
Since Perfected Master Li mentioned the library, Qin Di called his disciples over and instructed them to read more books when they were free.
Fan Yao said with a smile, "Master, Senior Sister and I have read at least 10,000 scrolls these days!"
Qin Di didn't even have time to look at the newly collected golden books and jade slips, so he instructed, "Help me organize them, and put the most valuable things in a separate room. I'll read them when I'm free."
Shen Yunyi said, "Master, these newly added books are all of a rather high level, and there are many things that we don't understand. They are all prepared for Spirit Immortals."
Qin Di said, "If you don't understand them, just casually flip through them first. It's enough to have a general impression of them. When you need to read them in detail in the future, you can come back and study them in detail."
"Yes, I understand."
After that, Qin Di also began to take time out to read. When he wasn't cultivating with his disciples, he would come to Epang Palace to stay.
He decorated the library until it was glittering with gold. He also added many sofas and soft chairs so that people could sit or lie down and read comfortably.
Because he spent more time in the library, more and more people came to read. Not only did the elders come to read, but even the disciples of the next generation often came.
Epang Palace could have tens of thousands of rooms, and there was enough space inside, so Qin Di divided all the golden books and jade slips into different categories and placed them in different rooms.
The library was very quiet. Everyone was quietly flipping through the books, just like the library in his previous life.
As an Earth Immortal Patriarch and the Sect Leader of the Four Sacred Sects, Qin Di's low-level disciples didn't dare to disturb him.
Now, Fan Yao and the others had recruited many disciples, but most of them didn't live at the top of the mountain. Instead, they came to the top of the mountain to see their master every year or so.
Because time passed quickly, everyone's cultivation was constantly growing, and the number of disciples and grand-disciples increased. Even the third generation disciple, Su Yuntang, already had grand-disciples!
Qin Di didn't care about so many juniors and grand-disciples. He only needed to manage a few disciples and the affairs of the sect.
After stepping into the sixth rank of the Earth Immortal Realm, he began to shift the focus of his cultivation. He often flew into the sky to receive the baptism of the astral winds. At the same time, he gathered the violet energy in the sky to cultivate the Amethyst Heavenly Fire.
The astral winds were extremely high in the sky, and the higher the location, the better the effect of the astral winds.
Before the Heavenly Pillar collapsed, countless cultivators climbed to the top of the Heavenly Pillar to receive the baptism of the astral winds to temper themselves. Now that the Heavenly Pillar had collapsed, it would be very difficult to find such an opportunity without the flying boat!
Qin Di flew up to the sky on the Sky-piercing Ship and used the Heavenly Devil Body Tempering Technique to receive the baptism of the astral winds.
He flew higher and higher until the Sky-piercing Ship couldn't fly anymore!
"Ah Zhou, why can't you fly anymore?"
The Sky-piercing Ship replied, "Master, there's a layer of sky membrane nearby. It's like an invisible array membrane. I can't pass through it!"
Qin Di was a little surprised. He widened his eyes and looked for a while, but he couldn't see the existence of the array membrane.
He took out the Heavenly Soul Spectacles and quickly saw it clearly!
There was a layer of light green array membrane in front of him. Although it was called an array membrane, it was actually a series of laws that intertwined with each other, forming an airspace of nearly 50 kilometers. It blocked the meteors, Heavenly Devils, Demon Immortals, and Spirit Immortals outside, but it also made it difficult for the people inside to ascend, let alone drive the flying boat out!
This wasn't a problem of speed. It wasn't like the rockets in his previous life, which could pass through the atmosphere at a certain speed. It was a restriction of laws. Even a high-grade spiritual treasure like the Sky-piercing Ship couldn't do anything! Only an immortal artifact could reduce this obstacle. If it was a high-grade immortal artifact, it could even automatically ascend, pass through the sky membrane, and fly outside!
Qin Di stopped the Sky-piercing Ship inside the sky membrane. As he received the baptism of the astral winds, he used the Heavenly Soul Spectacles to observe the laws of the Heavenly Dao.
He discovered that the laws were very complicated! Even though he had comprehended more than 10,000 laws, there were still many things he didn't understand.
He knew that there were a total of 108,000 heavenly laws, but how many laws were there in total? Were they like the heavenly laws, with a total of 108,000 laws? He didn't have a definite answer to this question.
It was like the human body had 12 meridians, but how many child meridians and grandchild meridians were there? How many blood capillaries were there? It was really hard to come to a conclusion!
However, Qin Di knew that the more laws of the Heavenly Dao he comprehended, the smoother his future advancement would be. Moreover, he had a chance of becoming a mighty Jin Xian!
The definition of a Heavenly Immortal and Jin Xian was determined by the number of heavenly laws comprehended. Comprehending one heavenly law could be considered as stepping into the threshold of a Heavenly Immortal. The more heavenly laws comprehended, the higher the level of a Heavenly Immortal. If one could comprehend 1,000 heavenly laws, they could be considered a Jin Xian!
Strictly speaking, heavenly laws and laws were the same thing, but heavenly laws were of a higher level, while laws were of a lower level. Heavenly laws were evolved from the fusion of several low-level laws!
The more laws Qin Di could comprehend now, the more heavenly laws he could fuse in the future!
Because of this, he was very interested in the extremely complicated laws in front of him. He stopped the flying boat and slowly studied them.
High up in the sky, astral winds blew from all directions. If it was someone else, they might not be able to hold on for more than two hours and might fall from the sky.
The so-called astral winds were actually a kind of wind that was close to pure Yang. Every Senshu, including demon cultivators, had to accept astral winds to temper their bodies. Only then could they become a pure Yang body. Only then could they cross the threshold of a Spirit Immortal and ascend to the Spiritual Realm.
As a Demon Sect cultivator who specialized in Yin Qi, they couldn't use astral winds to temper their bodies. They had Yin Springs to soak in and Yin Caves to temper their bodies. They also had special methods to enter and exit the Green Underworld, so they didn't need to go high up in the sky to face astral winds.
Qin Di cultivated both Yin and Yang, being both immortal and demonic. He had learned the Yin Yang Treasure of Fate from Yohime. With just a thought, he could transform the Yin Qi in his body into Yang Qi. Therefore, whether it was astral winds tempering his body or soaking in the Yin Springs, he could improve his skills. Moreover, he cultivated the White Bone Divine Technique and the Great Demonic Tempering Technique, so he could last ten days in the sky at a time.
