Forging Immortality through the Dao Seed

Step, step——

Walking closely behind Ice Crystal Immortal Spirit Bing Liangliang, more than a dozen people as soon as they walked into the hall, reflexively looked towards Feng Wuyu and the others. Their bodies suddenly stiffened.

"What a horrific aura!"

All resounded inwardly in awe.

Especially the man at the forefront who was from Taiyi Pavilion at Unity Realm Stage. His calm demeanor was instantly shattered.

The higher the level of cultivation,

The more one could truly perceive the terror of these people.

Even though he was at Unity Realm Stage as well, a strong sense of crisis constantly reminded him that he was no different than a mere mortal before these people.

He was like an insignificant bug that could casually be crushed.

However, he quickly came to a realization.

"True Teachings! These people must be True Teachings disciples from Cave Heaven!"

A glint of astonishment flashed across his mind.

His eyes unconsciously looked towards Zhang Jing, who was sitting at the top. Even though Zhang Jing was only at the Golden Core Realm cultivation, he looked calm as still water.

A thought involuntarily sprang up in his mind.

Although his cultivation was not high,

It seemed that his status was not low among these True Teachings disciples?

The next moment,

Before Zhang Jing had a chance to speak.

"Junior Brother pays respect to Senior Brother Zhang Jing and all True Teachings disciples!"

The man bowed and spoke respectfully.

And behind him,

Upon hearing his words, the others ignored the tremor in their hearts, followed suit, and chanted in unison:

"We pay our respects to Senior Brother Zhang Jing and all True Teachings disciples!"

As their voices faded.

"Please take a seat, Junior Brother and Sister, no need for formalities."

Zhang Jing's gentle voice echoed through the grand hall.

Various transparent Ice Crystal Immortal Spirits darted out, some holding tables, some holding mats, and some holding spiritual wine and divine fruits.

After a while,

All of them took their seats.

Scanning past the crowd,

Zhang Jing's eyes flickered.

"Who would have thought they would be here? This must be fate."

A trace of undetectable smile flashed across his face, he thought to himself.

Not long after,

The man at Unity Dao Cultivation took a deep breath, then got up from his seat and took a few steps forward.

He bowed and said with enthusiasm:

"Junior Brother Guo Donglai is here representing all disciples of Taiyi Pavilion in Dong Ji Immortal Continent. I am here to congratulate Senior Brother Zhang Jing on opening his Dao field. Please accept this humble gift."

"Senior Brother, if you have spare time, we would be honored if you could visit Taiyi Pavilion to provide some guidance. We will prepare for your arrival."

"Ha ha, Junior Brother Guo, you are too polite."

Zhang Jing smiled faintly and replied courteously.

During the conversation,

Bing Lengleng dashed out and excitedly 'received' the treasure box radiating faint fairy light from the man.

Such an act was like flipping a switch.

When he returned to his seat,

Including You Yuanming in the crowd, five people led by a middle-aged man with a simple and honest face, also rose from their seats, walked to the center of the hall, and said with restraint:

"I am Xu Ji from Dognming Blessed Land. I am here on behalf of all my Junior Brothers and Sisters, following the decree of our Realm's Master, to congratulate Senior Brother Zhang Jing on the opening of his Dao field."

"Junior Brother Xu, you've gone to great lengths. Please convey my gratitude to Uncle Master Shang from your Blessed Land,"

Zhang Jing replied with a smile.

He certainly would not be completely ignorant about the Dognming Blessed Land near his Dao field.

The Master of the Land of Good Fortune is named Shang Yanzu, an Earth Immortal of Tao Sect.

"I will definitely pass on your words, Senior Brother,"

The middle-aged man replied with a bow.

Just then,

Zhang Jing suddenly turned to You Yuanming among the crowd and said with a smile on his face:

"Brother You, it's been nearly fifty years since we parted at the Dao Institute in the Lower Realm, hasn't it? How have you been?"

He did not call the other 'Senior Brother' as he had done in the Lower Realm before.

On one hand, saying it in front of so many people, especially in front of Senior Brother Feng Wuyu and the others, would seem inappropriate.

On the other hand,

Of course, this was because such a title was not particularly good news for You Yuanming either.

As soon as he spoke,

The eyes of dozens of people in the hall instantly fell on You Yuanming.

You Yuanming's body stiffened abruptly, then he replied in a low voice:

"I appreciate the concern, Senior Brother. I am doing well in the Blessed Land."

Inside,

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness that Junior Brother... Senior Brother Zhang did not dwell on the previous title. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to face this situation!

"Ha ha, that's good. If you need anything in the future, feel free to come to Lingshu Mountain. Back then, when we were in the Lower Realm, the Academy Principal repeatedly instructed me to take care of you and Nong Xingzhou upon reaching the Upper Realm,"

Zhang Jing said kindly.

He was not joking in the slightest.

Upon hearing this,

The crowd couldn't help but look at You Yuanming with eyes full of envy.

He seemed to have deep ties with a True Teachings disciple and furthermore received his promise that he could visit the Dao field anytime...

What incredible fortune was this?

"This lucky You Yuanming will probably skyrocket!" Everybody in the crowd thought.

On the spot,

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhang. I'll keep that in mind,"

A trace of gratitude flashed through You Yuanming's eyes.

He wasn't an innocent child. He knew perfectly well what Zhang Jing's words meant.

...

...

As time slowly passed,

"Junior Brother, I have to leave now. If you need something, feel free to visit Qing Shen Palace at Golden Rooster Mountain."

Outside the main gate of the Dao field.

Feng Wuyu seemingly joked, seeming to advise.

Upon hearing that.

A hint of embarrassment crossed Zhang Jing's face instantly, then he laughed and nodded, saying:

"Senior Brother, have a safe journey."

He waited until the divine bronze light transformed by the other party disappeared from sight before turning around and going back to the dojo.

As Zhang Jing's figure disappeared.

A blink of celestial light that connected heaven and earth shone by, in an instant, the Ling Shu Mountain Dojo became misty and obscure, giving people a strange feeling that it seemed close yet infinitely far away, and it was unattainable.

…

...

Main Peak.

"Ah~, after all, identities are different and can't be changed."

A long sigh of melancholy suddenly sounded in the empty hall.

Zhang Jing quietly sat cross-legged on the cushion, no longer thinking about the kind of estrangement he had felt during his conversation with You Yuanming and Qiu Han.

Behind him.

Six layers of Qingyun slowly rose up, the six-coloured celestial light was endless, revealing infinite mysteries.

At this point.

The Dao sermon matter has been completely resolved, plus the gains made in the process of giving the sermon,

Zhang Jing naturally wanted to strike while the iron is hot and cultivate in seclusion.

In an instant.

Zhang Jing's face became emotionless and his eyes calm as a deep, quiet pond.

The previous insights reappeared in his mind.

His eyes became more and more brilliant.

"I was wrong! Although when I stepped into the Golden Core Realm, the Divine Ability I had melted out was not the Primordial Chaos Celestial Light recorded in the Derivative World's legacy, but the stronger Innate Divine Ability of the Original Realm of the Taiyi Sky Firmament Gods, but… this has not essentially gone beyond the framework of the Derivative World!"

"So the Dao of the Derivative World's way of cultivating in the Golden Core Realm is still the foundation for me."

"The remaining three hundred and twenty-nine basic Tao Intents still need to be cultivated, and they must all be melted into the Primordial Golden Elixir to become the Great Divine Power of the three products of the Nine Doors. In this way, the Primordial Golden Elixir will be able to gestate the source of the world and the mechanism of creation."

"Of course, because of the Innate Divine Ability of the Taiyi Sky Firmament Gods and even the existence of the Supreme Red Career Immortal Demon Sword, the Dharma Phase that finally transforms is not likely to be the Egg of Primal Genesis, but there is no doubt that it will be stronger!"

As time slowly elapsed.

Zhang Jing's mind became clearer and clearer.

"The Great Divine Power of the three products of the Nine Doors, Chaotic Six Qi, Life and Death, Dao Life Treasure Furnace, Shrinking Earth Into Inches, Fetal Breath of Heaven and Earth, Imaginary Space, Three Disasters Tribulation Light... These are after all not Innate Divine Abilities, once melted out, they should be able to be upgraded directly by using Jade Talisman."

"So——"

His eyes flashed, and his mind suddenly pulled away from the comprehension.

How huge are the required experience points to upgrade the Middle Three Great Divine Abilities? Especially since there are nine doors continuously, could he be able to upgrade them all to Immortal Seed stages in his lifetime?

Zhang Jing's eyebrows couldn't help but frown.

Of course.

If he does not upgrade them to the Immortal Seed stage, it will not affect his cultivation to the Dharma Phase Realm, even to the Unity Dao Cultivation Realm.

Even so, he can still far surpass the cultivator who is cultivating the Primal Genesis of the Derivative World's common method.

But... It is still not perfect in the end!

The next moment.

As if he had realized something.

A Nine Orifice Stone Embryo quietly appeared in Zhang Jing's hand.

If you want a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

It's better to refine it into a clone first, and then let the stone clone take the Dao element Qingyun Immortal Species to stay in the Three Elements City permanently, and fully melt the Acquired Purple Qi.

Although this is a drop in the bucket, it is always better than nothing.

"Forget it, it is said that there are fifty Dao, and heaven derive forty-nine, leaving one behind. Even heaven and earth are like this, so why should I be forced to be perfect? It's just fine to do my best."

Zhang Jing comforted himself in his heart.

Of course, the reason for this thought is actually helpless.

For some unknown reason.

Zhang Jing suddenly thought of the Origin Crystal that the master gave him before. If there are enough Origin Crystals——

Next moment.

What am I thinking?

Just looking at the performances of the master and several uncles at the time, you can tell how precious the Origin Crystals are.

Why am I having such an unrealistic expectation?

Zhang Jing smiled and shook his head.

Then he put all his attention on the Nine Orifice Stone Embryo in his hand, and began to recall the method of refining a clone that his uncle taught him before.

Before long.

Threads of magical aura suddenly began to spread out.

...

...

On the other side.

In the Taiyi Pavilion.

More than a dozen figures sat in the hall, each with a strong or weak aura.

"So, Junior Brother Guo, you mean, this true disciple of Ling Shu Mountain has a not so low position in Chiming Grand Brightness Cave Heaven?"

A man sitting in the top position confirmed, with a touch of seriousness in his voice.

"Yes, Senior Brother! This time he gave a Dao sermon, and there were five other true disciples from Chiming Grand Brightness Cave Heaven who came to the field. And one of them, if I guess right, should be the legendary thirteenth true disciple of the Dao Sect, Senior Brother Feng Wuyu!"

Guo Donglai, who had led the team to congratulate Ling Shu Mountain Dojo before, said solemnly.

"Tsk," the man heard it and pursed his lips, "in that case, there is no harm in having a good relationship with him, maybe we will reap the benefits in the future. Junior Brother, do you have any good suggestions?"

"To answer Senior Brother!"

As the voice fell.

Another man, whose cultivation was only at the Dharma Phase Realm, stood up and said respectfully:

"Junior Brother has some ideas, I don't know whether to speak or not."

"Speak!"

"To see today, that disciple of Ling Shu Mountain seems to have a good relationship with a disciple in our Blessed Land named Qiu Han. Coincidentally, this person once participated in the entrance examination of our Taiyi Pavilion but did not pass."

"Why don't we exceptionally accept Junior Brother Qiu Han into the pavilion to show the goodwill of the Senior Brothers?"

"Is that so... Good!"

Meanwhile.

Dognming Blessed Land.

"Oh? The disciple Zhang Jing has a good relationship with one of our disciples in our land?"

A huge figure composed entirely of endless blazing yellow sand suddenly opened its eyes like two big suns, a rolling voice full of curiosity dropped from the sky, seeming to make the boundless land tremble slightly.

"Master, that's true!"

"From the meaning of their words, it seems that they were good friends in the Lower Realm Dao Institute."

"Um~, in that case, let's focus on cultivating him."

"It is also considered as making a good relationship with Junior Brother Zhang Jing!"

The voice suddenly became high and distant.
