Forging Immortality through the Dao Seed

In mid-air.

A streak of Escape Light passed over successive mountain ranges and finally landed directly in front of the majestic mountain gate that towered over a hundred feet tall, transforming into two men and one woman.

"Ling... Shu... Mountain!"

The woman gazed at the mountain gate, unconsciously muttering to herself in a soft voice.

For a moment, she only felt the three seal characters, resembling iron hooks and silver strokes, getting larger and larger in her field of view. A thread of the fearsome Tao Intent of creation suddenly appeared amidst her Mind, spreading wantonly.

"Junior Sister, those three characters must not be observed casually. Snap out of it!"

Seeing that the woman's eyes were gradually losing their luster.

You Yuanming at her side knew what was happening. He smiled helplessly and then gently spoke up, trying to wake her.

Under his repeated calls.

The woman's consciousness slowly broke free from the fearsome Tao Intent, and clarity returned to her eyes bit by bit.

"What a terrifying place!"

Her heart was immediately shaken.

On her way here, the woman had already seen the appearance of this dojo from mid-air.

Thirty-six main peaks pierced the heavens, with the glow of immortals spreading for ten thousand miles, revealing boundless secrets of Immortal Way. Vaguely, in Tianqiong, terrifying stars could be seen, casting down magnificent starglow, while thick yellow light seemed to flow endlessly on the ground, gathering the infinite power of the earth's veins.

Seizing the creation of heaven and earth, delving into the mysteries of the sun and the moon!

She never imagined that the descriptions she heard in legends of immortals since childhood would one day truly present themselves before her.

Grand and mystical, beyond imagination.

"What sort of existence is Lingshu Mountain to occupy such a grand dojo?"

A hint of hope surged in her gaze.

Could Senior Brother Zhang Jing be cultivating in this dojo? If he has a close relationship with the owner of the dojo, perhaps... Xinzhou really has a chance of survival.

Thinking of this.

She couldn't help but turn her head to look toward You Yuanming and Qiu Han beside her, forcefully suppressing the excitement in her heart as she asked for confirmation:

"May I ask the two Senior Brothers, is the Zhang Jing Senior Brother you spoke of previously cultivating here?"

"Haha, Junior Sister's thought is correct; Senior Brother Zhang Jing is indeed cultivating here," Qiu Han replied with a laugh, his tone carrying a hint of peculiarity.

He knew this Junior Sister seemed to have misunderstood something, but he didn't explain. After all, she would find out soon enough.

Elsewhere.

"Yes, this Shu Mountain Dojo is the very place where Senior Brother Zhang Jing cultivates," You Yuanming sighed.

Looking at the vast and majestic Shu Mountain Dojo before him.

He felt an unreal sensation rising in his heart.

Who could have thought that the clueless youth from back then, in less than a hundred years' time, would grow to such an extent?

Everything seemed like a dream.

In the midst of their conversation.

Boom, boom!

The mountain gate slowly opened, and a Crystal Immortal Spirit, only half the height of a person, walked out with light steps.

"The three of you, our master summons you!"

"Thank you."

You Yuanming and Qiu Han immediately bowed their hands in thanks, responding respectfully.

Although the Crystal Immortal Spirit was very polite in demeanor, they dared not act arrogantly; after all, the aura emanating from its body clearly revealed it to be an existence above the Golden Core Realm.

Turning their heads to look at the woman who was still standing still.

You Yuanming couldn't help but say with a smile:

"Junior Sister, what are you spacing out for? Senior Brother Zhang Jing is inviting us in."

Upon hearing this, the woman seemed to realize something, and her expression abruptly became rigid as an incredulous look slowly appeared in her eyes.

"What do you mean by that, Senior Brother You?!"

...

...

Before long.

Inside Qingjing Palace.

"Senior Brother, as for Junior Brother Nong Xingzhou's side, alas, that's the situation. If it's convenient for you, I wonder if you could... could you possibly save him?"

You Yuanming and Qiu Han were taking turns explaining in detail to Zhang Jing, who sat above.

And the more Zhang Jing listened, the more peculiar his facial expression became.

Family arrangements, love at first sight, love rivalry, a secret pregnancy...

Quite the drama!

He would never have imagined that such melodramatic plot lines, which existed only in novels from his previous life, would one day be enacted in the world of Immortal Way, and that he would know the key character personally.

Zhang Jing couldn't help but have an image of Nong Xingzhou flash through his mind.

Handsome in appearance, tall in stature, it had to be said, the man truly had some capital to him.

"The experiences of this once Senior Brother... are indeed quite colorful."

He thought to himself with a hidden snicker.

His face, however, showed a trace of contemplation.

Below.

Seeing Zhang Jing deep in thought, You Yuanming and Qiu Han immediately fell silent, a tense sensation spontaneously rising in their hearts.

They knew very well.

Whether Junior Brother Nong could find a sliver of hope for survival lay entirely within a single thought from Senior Brother Zhang Jing.

At the very bottom.

The wan woman, quietly listening, was also holding her breath, even slowing her breathing unconsciously.

She gently covered the mouth of the baby girl in her arms, as if fearing to disturb Senior Brother, thereby leaving a bad impression.

At the same time.

She couldn't help but let waves of doubt flood her mind uncontrollably.

Until now.

The woman could finally confirm that the master of this dojo must be the Senior Brother above.

But could this be possible?

After all, if she wasn't mistaken in her feeling, his cultivation level seemed...

"Merely at the Golden Core Realm, yet he owns such a dojo. What is the background of this Senior Brother Zhang Jing?"

On the other side.

A look of resolve slowly emerged on Zhang Jing's face.

He had made his decision.

Originally, Zhang Jing did not wish to bother with this mess. After all, it was a situation the man had created himself, and thus he also had to bear the corresponding consequences.
