A few days later, he asked his disciple, Guan Lin, to deliver a Buddha fire to his Senior Sister, Gui Miya.
Gui Miya was very excited. She grabbed Guan Lin's hand and said, "Your master often goes out. If there's anything, you can come to me. I can't deal with big things, but I can help you with small things. "
She was at the peak of Dao Integration. With the Buddha fire, it would not take long for her to become an Earth Immortal. Once she became an Earth Immortal, her status in the Yin Ghost Sect would greatly increase.
Guan Lin nodded. "Thank you, Uncle-Master."
Qin Di cultivated in Mount Langya for more than a month. He had nothing to do, so he went to the Small World to visit the Spirit Immortal Ghost Axe.
Ghost Axe was tall and had a square face, a high nose bridge, a dark complexion, and a pair of deep eyes.
The two of them sat in the main hall and slowly drank the Dao Comprehension Tea that Qin Di had given them.
Ghost Axe praised, "This tea is not bad. It's better than the treasures auctioned in Tianbao Hall."
Qin Di said softly, "The key is the Dao Comprehension Spring Water. I personally got it from the depths of the Dead Sea. The spring water and the divine tea together have such an effect. "
Ghost Axe looked at him and said, "Qin Qiong, your cultivation is improving very quickly. When do you plan to step into the Spiritual Realm?"
"It's still early. I have to wait until I become a Spirit Immortal before we talk about the future. Since Senior has come down from the Spiritual Realm, can you tell me what it's like? "
Ghost Axe took a sip of tea and said, "Some people say that the primitive world we live in is at the edge of the universe, and the known universe originated from a 'divine explosion'. As for what 'divine explosion' is, don't ask me. I don't know either. After the divine explosion, there were all kinds of planets and planes. If we use the center of the divine explosion as the origin, it is said that the further we go, the thinner the spirit qi. As time passes, the primitive world we live in is constantly moving away from the origin. With every immortal year, the spirit qi will decrease. "
Qin Di was a little surprised and thought, Isn't this the theory of the Big Bang? Why does the cultivation world have such a theory?
Ghost Axe continued, "The particles produced by the Deity Explosion, which are planets, are not uniform. The lower particles fly fast, just like the Primeval World where we live. The higher particles are denser and fly slower. They are closer to the origin, so they become the Spiritual World, the Immortal World, and even the Divine World … "
"Ah? And the Divine Realm? Could it be that it's more brilliant than the Immortal World? "
Ghost Axe placed the teacup on the table and smiled bitterly, "These are all legends. Whether the Divine Realm exists or not, it's not something nobodies like us can figure out. I only heard rumors. Regardless of whether it was the Spirit Realm, the Immortal Realm, or the God Realm, it was just a name. In reality, these planes are all of a higher grade than the Primordial World. Whether it's spirit Qi or spirit materials, they're all much richer than ours. As the saying goes, people strive for higher places while water flows to lower places. We Enlightened Cultivators pursue Spirit Qi and have no choice but to continuously ascend to different planes. This is the essence of cultivation. I was forced to do so. "
Qin Di could only nod in agreement.
Ghost Axe continued, "The Spirit Realm is a general term for higher grade planes. It can also refer to the place we'll go after ascending. It's said that there are many Spirit Realms, but I don't know how many there are. I only know that the Primordial World corresponds to the Upper Spirit Realm. That plane is dozens of times larger than the Primordial World. The Immortal Sect, Yao Sect, and Demonic Sect are in power. However, the three sects have only developed a fifth of the Spirit Realm. There's still more than half that hasn't been developed. "
Qin Di said, "If that's the case, the conflict between the three sects should be more peaceful."
Ghost Axe said, "That's not the case. The Spirit Realm has five continents. Only the Central Continent is the most suitable for living. The other four continents often experience all kinds of disasters. That's why they've become places for sects to train and gather spirit materials."
"Is there an environment suitable for sects to cultivate in the Central Continent alone? For example, our Dark Ghost Sect needs a place filled with yin Qi. It's not easy to find such a good place. "
"Of course there is! The Central Continent alone is three to four times larger than the Primordial World. There's bound to be a suitable place. Moreover, our Dark Ghost Sect relies on Underworld Ghost Bones. As long as we can find high quality ghost bones, we can recreate a Yin Pool. Combining it with the local spiritual Qi and through a formation, it'll become a treasure land filled with yin Qi. "
"So you're saying that even in the Spirit Realm, we need Underworld Ghost Bones?"
"Of course. Underworld Ghost Bones are like a medicinal primer. We can't do without them. Qin Qiong, since you can enter the Netherworld, can you find some Underworld Ghost Bones? "
Qin Di said, "The Netherworld is too big. I don't know where to find them."
Ghost Axe smiled, "There are three treasures in the Netherworld. Ghost Bones, Dark Stone, and Hidden Algae. Ghost Bones are Underworld Ghost Bones. Dark Stone is the opposite of Immortal Stone. It's suitable for demonic sect cultivators to cultivate. It's one rank higher than the Yin Spirit Stone. Hidden Algae is the best among Hidden Algae. It's produced in the Netherworld and suitable for crossing the sky membrane. Not only can it help demonic sects ascend to the Spirit Realm, but it can also help you return to the Primordial World from there. "
Qin Di was tempted and asked, "Senior, how did you come down from the Spirit Realm?"
Ghost Axe answered, "Back then, I wore a low-grade Hidden Algae Coat and took a great risk to climb down from the Heavenly Pillar of the Spirit Mountain. Now that the Heavenly Pillar has collapsed, it'll take more time to cross the sky membrane. It's best if I have clothes made from high-grade Hidden Algae. Otherwise, it'll be very dangerous! "
"Senior, what's going on with the sky membrane above us? I once observed it closely for a long time. I only saw countless complicated laws of the Heavenly Dao. However, they were difficult to grasp and none of them were easy to comprehend. "
"The sky membrane is the Heavenly Dao. Not only are there complicated laws, but there are also simple laws of the Heavens mixed in. It's precisely because of the existence of the laws of the Heavens that the Spirit Immortals outside can't directly barge in. Even mid and low-level Heaven Immortals have to wear clothes made from Hidden Algae to avoid the search of the Heavenly Dao. They have to take a great risk and suppress their power to the level of an Earth Immortal to be able to enter the Primordial World. Therefore, Hidden Algae is a good treasure. If you go to the Netherworld again, I advise you to collect more! Even if you sell it, you can earn a large amount of Immortal Stones or Netherstones! "
Qin Di was instantly interested and asked, "Senior, do you know where to collect the Three Treasures of the Netherworld?"
Ghost Axe answered, "I'm not sure either. I only heard that the core area of the Netherworld is funnel-shaped, and the deepest part nurtures Hidden Algae and Yellow Springs Ghost Bones. Go to the Netherworld and ask around. Then, walk towards the concave area. You'll be able to find it if you spend a little more time. "
Qin Di thought for a while and smiled, "Wait for me to go back and prepare. Then, I'll go to the Netherworld and see if there's a chance."
Then, he bid farewell to Ghost Axe and returned to the Immortal Mist Peak.
He waited on the peak for another ten years. Seeing that everything in the Four Sacred Sect was normal and everything was progressing smoothly, he told Miao Yunjuan and the others about it and went out with Tao 'e.
Tao 'e entered Qin Di's Heavenly Abode and still appeared as a small peach tree.
Qin Di once again came to the Yin Valley of the Yin Ghost Sect. He jumped into the Yin Spring and went to the Netherworld with ease.
The Netherworld was dim, but it wasn't pitch-black. It was like dusk. Although one could see, one couldn't see very far. Fortunately, Qin Di was already a high-level Earth Immortal and had very good eyesight, so he wasn't affected at all.
He also didn't release the Ghost King to carry the palanquin. The reason why he did that in the past was to avoid being disturbed by others. Now that his strength had increased a lot, he didn't need to be afraid even if someone tried to stop him.
He followed the route in his memory and flew all the way to Fengdu City to find True Lord Guang. In any case, True Lord Guang was an acquaintance. Since he was here, it was best to meet him and ask for information.
Fengdu City was a big city with a circumference of hundreds of miles. There were many ghosts and ghosts everywhere. Among them were some cultivators, Senshu, Evil Cultivators, and even a few bald monks. Some places were very quiet, and some places were very noisy. It was similar to the mortal world.
Qin Di walked around the Emperor of Fengdu's mansion for a long time and asked many people. In the end, he was told that True Lord Guang wasn't in Fengdu City. He had been promoted to the Inspector of the East Wuzhou and went out to perform official duties!
He asked again, where was the East Wuzhou?
Many people just shook their heads, "I don't know. The Netherworld is so big, who knows where it is! "
Later, someone pointed to the north and said, "30 miles north, at the end of Xuanwu Street, there is a Tianbao Hall. Go there and buy a map, and you will know the general direction!"
Qin Di was very surprised. He walked north and found Xuanwu Street. Sure enough, there was a Tianbao Hall!
The last two times he came and went in a hurry, he didn't carefully look around Fengdu City. He didn't expect there to be a Tianbao Hall here!
"This is really strange! If Tianbao Hall can open a shop here, what do I have to do with it? I don't have to waste any more effort. I might as well go to the shop to buy the Invisible Algae Coat and the Yellow Springs Ghost Bone. Wouldn't that be more convenient? "
He shook his head lightly and laughed at himself. Then he walked into Tianbao Hall.
Tianbao Hall was very big and was divided into five floors.
The lowest floor sold low-level items, mainly for low-level cultivators, so there were many customers. There were also people, ghosts, and the Evil Path. All life was equal and there was no distinction.
Qin Di looked around and went to the upper floor. He walked up the stairs and went all the way to the fourth floor, where the crowd became sparser.
He had just stepped into the fourth floor, but before he could take a closer look, a clear female voice cried out in surprise, "True Monarch Qin? Is that you? "
Qin Di turned her head to look and could not help but be surprised. "Rody? Why are you here? "
In front of him was a woman with an enchanting figure. Her face was a little pale and had many dark spots. She looked very haggard, very different from the youthful scene he saw in the past. The last time Qin Di saw her, she was still in Yunmeng Marsh. He didn't know why she came to the netherworld!
Qin Di was suspicious. Could it be that Tianbao Hall had a special passage to the netherworld?
Luo Di stared at him for a moment and was even more shocked. He said, "True Monarch Qin, no, Master Immortal Qin, how did you become an Earth Immortal so quickly? Since you're an Earth Immortal, how could you die so easily? Also, aren't you a righteous Senshu? How did you suddenly become a demonic cultivator? How strange! "
Qin Di smiled. "This is not the place to talk. Can we talk in private?"
Luo Di quickly led him to a secret room and closed the door. "Master Immortal Qin, please take a seat. I'll prepare some tea for you."
Soon, two cups of tea were served.
However, the moment she turned around, she saw Qin Di's aura change again! He was eerie just a moment ago, but now he was full of Yang energy!
"Ah? Master Immortal Qin, you're actually a demonic cultivator? Could it be that you didn't die? Instead, you secretly came to the netherworld? "
Qin Di nodded. "That's right! I found a passage to the netherworld, so I came here. I didn't expect to see you here. Why aren't you cultivating in the spiritual mountain? Why are you here? You're covered in ghost energy and you have ghost spots on your face. You're missing a few strands of your soul. What's going on? "
Luo Di's face was pale. He sighed. "It's been three to four thousand years since we last met. I arrived at the spiritual mountain from the Cloud Dream Swamp and cultivated in the headquarters of Tianbao Hall for more than a thousand years. It wasn't easy for me to reach the middle stage of the Void Step. I didn't expect to encounter the collapse of the Heavenly Pillar. At the critical moment, I was framed by my fellow disciples and unfortunately fell. My three souls were lost and my seven spirits were scattered. A part of my soul was blown away by the wind and disappeared. The other part came to the netherworld and became like this. "
Qin Di frowned. "How long have you been here?"
"It's been one thousand eight hundred years."
"How many more strands of your soul are needed to recover?"
"Five more strands. At this rate of recovery, it'll take at least four to five thousand years to recover. My cultivation isn't high, so it's very slow. "
Qin Di looked at her and felt sorry for her. He pondered for a moment and said, "I have two ways to help you."
"Ah? Really? "Luo Di looked at him hopefully and said," Please help me, Immortal Elder Qin. "
Qin Di slowly said, "For the first method, I happen to have a Six Opposing Soul Return Pill. As long as you take it, you will be able to recover your soul. In this way, you can still practice your original cultivation method and continue working at Tianbao Hall. For the second method, I can accept you as a disciple and teach you the Yin Yang Fortune Codex. Although this is a ghost cultivation method, it can be turned into a Senshu cultivation method in the later stages. The difference between an immortal and a demon is just a thought. There isn't much difference. I have practiced this cultivation method, so I can enter and leave the netherworld. "
Luo Di was excited. His pale face turned ruddy and the black spots faded. He thought for a moment and said, "I want to choose the second method."
Qin Di curiously asked, "Why? Could it be that Tianbao Hall has treated you unfairly? "
Luo Di's expression changed and he sighed. "It's not that Tianbao Hall has treated me unfairly, but I have a knot in my heart that I can't untie. To tell you the truth, I grew up at Tianbao Hall and had a childhood sweetheart. He was the second grandson of Tianbao Hall's pavilion master and we had a good relationship. But when Mount Lingshan's Sky Pillar collapsed, he suddenly turned against me at the critical moment and killed me. After so many years, I still can't understand how he could be such a person. Even to this day, my heart aches every time I think about it. My heart is dead. If I continue to practice Tianbao Hall's cultivation method, I might go berserk. So I think it's better to cut it off completely and switch to cultivating demonic cultivation methods. "
Qin Di nodded. "If that's the case, you can kowtow and worship me as your master. From today onwards, I will accept you as a disciple in name. You can only become an official disciple when you become an Earth Immortal. "
Luo Di immediately knelt and kowtowed. "Greetings, Master."
