After the Sect Tournament, Emperor Zhenwu led the four newly recruited disciples back to the True Martial Pavilion.
The True Martial Pavilion looked like an immortal palace from the outside, but it was a vast world inside. The temperature of this world was somewhat low, just like the North Pole. However, there wasn't much ice and snow on the ground. Instead, it was a vast ocean formed by a mixture of ice and water. There were many islands in the sea, and each island had a small temple. Many disciples were living inside.
There was a large island in the middle of the ocean. It was thousands of miles wide and had layers of immortal palaces.
Emperor Zhenwu entered the most majestic immortal palace and called the four disciples in.
Qin Di was the last to enter. After three kowtows and nine kowtows, he became the Emperor's inner disciple.
Zhenwu Great Emperor sat in the armchair, unmoving as a mountain. He said in a deep voice, "Qin Shui, tell me everything about yourself from beginning to end. I will help you plan your future cultivation path according to your cultivation method."
Qin Di was a little hesitant and didn't know where to start.
Emperor Zhenwu raised his eyebrows and asked, "What? Do you have any concerns in front of me?"
Qin Di thought, "I have a lot of concerns! Should I tell him about my main body and the seven doppelgangers? If I don't, what should I do if Master finds out? If I say it, will it make Master have misgivings and chase me out? I just became his disciple. I'll tell him when I'm more familiar with him. "
A thought flashed through his mind, and he quickly made a decision. He would not say too much first, and would only tell her about the water clone.
"I was born in the Primordial World. I reached Spirit Mountain from the lower reaches of the Tongtian River. At the foot of Spirit Mountain, there is a Yellow Springs Ghost Road. I was kidnapped by a Spirit Immortal and brought into the Netherworld. In the depths of the Yellow Springs Sea, I saw the heads of Gonggong, Zhu Rong, Goumang, and Rushou. They were sealed in immortal coffins. "
"I removed the immortal talismans outside the coffins and saved the four Divine Lords. Then Divine Lord Gonggong pierced one of his front teeth into my body. Inside it was the seed of the Primordial Heavenly Way of Heavy Water that he had cultivated for many years. Unfortunately, I was not talented enough. Although I cultivated for many years, I only understood a small part of it."
"The eight types of Level Five Immortal Waters that I used previously were personally refined by Divine Lord Gonggong. I helped him obtain some Desolate Heavy Water at the Buddha Burial Plateau … "
"After that, I went to the Spirit Realm and joined the Black Emperor Palace. I was taken in by the Black Emperor's incarnation and learned the Cloud and Water Great Dao …"
"Later on, disciple came to the Immortal World. In the Ancestral Hall, Emperor Meng Hei imparted a technique to me. He gave me a lump of Weak Water and taught me the Weak Water Heart Sutra, as well as the general principles of refining Immortal Talismans …"
Zhenwu Great Emperor listened quietly and nodded from time to time. Finally, he said in a low voice, "Although I have accepted you as my disciple, I will not teach you the Dark North Technique before you advance to the Jin Xian Realm. Do you know why? "
Qin Di shook his head. "I don't know. Please enlighten me, Master."
Zhenwu Great Emperor said slowly, "As the saying goes, don't bite off more than you can chew. I advise you to put the Desolate Heavy Water aside and put all your energy into the Weak Water Heart Sutra. The Weak Water Heart Sutra is gentle, easy to learn, and easy to advance. When you have mastered the Three Thousand Great Dao of Weak Water, you can learn the Dark North Technique and the Desolate Heavy Water!"
"The Desolate Heavy Water is too domineering. If there is no protection when you cultivate, it is easy to go astray. When Gonggong cultivated to the level of Sengoku, there was a time when there was a deviation and he fought with the Black Emperor Zhuanxu. In the end, he was taught a lesson by the Black Emperor. He could not control his anger and hit the Heavenly Pillar Buzhou Mountain, causing the sky to hold up in the northwest and the earth to be dissatisfied with the southeast … When the Extraterrestrial Demons invaded, the human world suffered. In the end, it was Goddess Nuwa who refined stones to mend the sky and saved the disaster … "
"From then on, Divine Lord Gonggong went into seclusion for fifteen million years and became an Immortal Emperor …"
Qin Di was surprised. "So that's how Divine Lord Gonggong and the Black Emperor fought! I thought there was enmity between them! Master, is there still a Heavenly Pillar in this world? "
Zhenwu Great Emperor said with a smile, "Of course there is! But the Heavenly Pillar now is not the same as it used to be. "
"What did the Heavenly Pillar look like in the past?"
"In the past, the human world mainly lived in the Central Xuanhuang Area. There were four tall mountains that rose from the ground and pierced through the clouds. They were called Mount Tai, Mount Heng, Mount Tiantai, and Mount Buzhou. Mount Tai had a long history and many immortals lived there. It was connected to the Heavens and the Underworld. On the side of Mount Tai, there was a small mountain called Mount Liang Fu. There was a Celestial Formation set up by the Great Emperors. Its purpose was to leave a hole for the Underworld and a passage for the Heavenly Path Tablet to monitor the Underworld. With that formation, the resentment of the human world could be vented and the ghosts of the Underworld could see a trace of light … "
Qin Di could not help but think of the Celestial Formation that kept rotating on top of Mount Liang Fu and the unpredictable drifting clouds. It was because he observed those drifting clouds that his cultivation improved greatly.
Zhenwu Great Emperor continued, "Mount Heng is the sacred mountain where the Zhu Rong family lived. It is the Stairway to Heaven in the south. There is a mountain overseas called Mount Tiantai. There is a Stairway to Heaven, a platform for immortals, and it is the residence of the Winged People. Mount Tiantai is the mountain carried by the giant turtle. It floats in the sea and does not follow the order of time … Mount Buzhou is located outside the Northwest Sea in the corner of the Great Wilderness.
"These are the early Stairway to Heaven. Later, the four poles were abolished, the Nine Regions were split, the sky could not be overturned, and the earth could not be contained. The environment of the central Mysterious Yellow Starry Sky became very bad, forcing the five emperors to step forward and expand beyond the sky. Only then did the Immortal World of the 28 constellations come into being. Later, Nuwa cut off the turtle to set up the Heavenly Pillar and killed the Black Dragon to save Ji Province. The new Heavenly Pillar is located outside the Four Poles of the 28 Constellations! "
At this point, Zhenwu Great Emperor stopped to catch his breath and asked, "Do you know the origins of the Great Turtle and the Black Dragon that Nuwa killed?"
Qin Di was in a trance. He said casually, "Could they be the ancestors of the Spirit Turtle and the Black Dragon?"
Zhenwu Great Emperor glanced at him and praised, "Kid, you are quite perceptive. Your guess is about right. When Nuwa refined stones to mend the Heavens, it was still the Primitive Age. The demonic beasts back then were huge, like the Divine Tree at that time, growing without restraint. "
"There were many ferocious demonic beasts back then, such as the Jiuying, the Chong Diao, the Gou She, the Zhujian, the Bi Fang, the Xiang Liu, the Bixie, the Yaksha … Some of the demonic beasts surpassed the level of the Sengoku and could be considered divine beasts. The turtle that Nuwa killed was a divine beast, and so was the Black Dragon. But when she killed the turtle and the Black Dragon, she carefully kept their eggs and gave them to the Black Emperor, Zhuanxu. That is why the Black Dragon King guarded the Black Dragon Pond and the Spirit Turtle King guarded the Azure Turtle Cave. Otherwise, these two demonic beasts wouldn't even have a Celestial King! "
"At the end of the Primitive Age, 49 Celestial Emperors gathered in the Celestial Court to discuss a grand plan. They built the Heavenly Tablet and changed the laws of heaven. From then on, demonic beasts were not allowed to become gods. There are no more divine beasts in the world! At most, they can only reach the peak of the Sengoku! "
Qin Di said, "The peak of the Sengoku? That's good, it's much better than the Immortal Tree! I heard that the Immortal Tree can only reach the Celestial Immortal level, not even the Zu Xian level. "
Zhenwu Great Emperor said, "The situation of the Immortal Tree is another matter. After all, trees are much weaker than humans, so it is more difficult for them to become immortals. Trees reproduce very quickly. How many humans are there in the world? How many trees are there? If all the trees grow into the Zu Xian level, then there will be no way for humans to survive! "
Qin Di thought for a while and said, "That makes sense." He remembered a report from his previous life. It said that there were seven billion people on Earth, but there were three trillion trees. That was equivalent to 428 trees for one person. If all the trees became immortals, then the living space for humans would become very bad with so many immortals around them.
At this time, he heard Zhenwu Great Emperor say, "In the past, in order to cultivate the Northern Underworld Divine Technique, I went to the Four Heavenly Pillars to gain enlightenment. I also went to Ji Zhou to look for the Black Dragon's relic. Unfortunately, I did not gain much. Later, I found the body of the turtle and the Black Dragon on the Deep Sky Star. After thousands of years of enlightenment, I finally became an Immortal Emperor … "
