Inquiry about immortality

Chapter 2587 Zixu Si Lei Bao Lu
Three months later, the day arrived for Qin Sang to be ordained.

Since the lineage was newly established, everything was kept simple. However, Yuan Zhenjun still tried his best to perfect the ordination ceremony, which was quite elaborate.

When the auspicious time arrived, Yuan Zhenjun opened the altar, connected with the divine court, and the power of the Gengchu Zhidu Gongyin manifested spiritual light, leaping and changing within the altar.

The altar is opened.

Transmission of the register.

To play.

……

The ritual of bestowing a talisman upon a True Lord is not much different from that of a lower-level talisman. It is done step by step until the talisman is burned and the memorial is presented. The talisman is then sunk into the talisman altar. Qin Sang finally received the fourth-level Thunder Department talisman - the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Talisman!
After the ceremony was completed, Qin Sang did not return to her residence immediately.

Next, the half-demon True Lord will be ordained, and True Lord Yuan strongly invites Qin Sang to be the ordination supervisor.

This was the first time Qin Sang had stood in the position of one of the three masters after receiving ordination multiple times. However, as the supervising master, Qin Sang did not have much to do, and Yuan Zhenjun handled everything.

This time, only three True Lords—Xuanqiu True Lord, Hequan True Lord, and Jinsi True Lord—received the Daoist talismans. It is said that Yanzhu True Lord and Tianbei True Lord have not yet chosen a talisman that suits them and are still hesitating.

The three True Lords completed the rituals one after another, and as expected, they all received the Doubu Dharma Register.

After the event was over, the True Lords congratulated each other and then returned to their respective residences to study the Dao.

Before leaving, Yuan Zhenjun specially kept Qin Sang behind and gave him a mustard seed bag. When Qin Sang opened it, he was immediately struck by the dazzling lightning. It was filled with rare and precious treasures of the Dao of Lightning, which were rarely seen in the world. He asked in surprise, "What are these...?"

Yuan Zhenjun smiled and said, "Qin Tianjun cultivates the Golden Seal Altar, which requires the essence of heavenly and earthly treasures to be used in its casting. Now that he has just obtained the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Scroll, he probably hasn't had time to prepare the spiritual materials yet. The contents of this bag should be enough to support Qin Tianjun's needs for a while. There is also a book called 'Purple Void True Explanation,' which is a compilation of the insights gained by the high-ranking immortals of the Thunder Department from past generations as they comprehended the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Scroll..."

Qin Sang suddenly realized that these were the true rewards from the Dao Court.

Needless to say, the "True Explanation of Purple Void" is a must-read. Qin Sang is practicing the Lesser Vehicle's killing path rather than the Thunder Path. Comprehending the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Talisman is definitely more difficult than understanding the Thunder Department True Lord. Obtaining this True Explanation will allow him to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

These rare and precious materials are dazzling and each one is clearly very valuable.

As a fourth-order talisman, the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Talisman covers the entire Integration Realm. Even if the contents of the bag don't support him until he completes the talisman altar, they will be enough for him to use for a long time. He can study the treasure talisman while collecting the remaining necessities.

Qin Sang secretly thought that the Dao Court's foundation was indeed profound. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh that it was good to be under a big tree. Many troublesome problems for cultivators from top forces could be solved by the forces behind them.

"Thank you for your trouble, Lord Yuan!" Qin Sang bowed and thanked him sincerely.

"This humble Taoist dares not claim credit. This was a special decree bestowed by Celestial Master Zhang, prepared for Qin Tianjun," Yuan Zhenjun said, then suddenly sighed, "Over the past few thousand years, the great immortals who were previously forced to suppress their cultivation have all achieved the Hetu Dharma Position, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Although this has greatly increased the strength of the Taoist Court, cultivation is not something that comes out of thin air. Every time someone achieves this, it consumes a portion of the Taoist Court's treasury, and the Taoist Court's foundation is now weak. Celestial Master Zhang has been working tirelessly for this... Yet some people are short-sighted and content with the status quo, always finding fault whenever the topic of entering the world comes up!"

Even in Mahayana Buddhist centers, the resources for spiritual practice are not inexhaustible; there will always come a day when they are depleted.

The Daoist Court's system dictates that they must engage with the world. Qin Sang's rampage in Dafeng Plain is a turning point, so the Daoist Court not only acknowledged it but also sent Yuan Zhenjun to take over Gengchu's governance.

This can be considered the first step taken by the Daoist Court into the world. Although it went smoothly, it was not perfect. Geng Chuzhi was in the heart of the demon realm, and countless thorns were visible on the road ahead. Yuan Zhenjun felt a great responsibility and sighed deeply.

Qin Sang was powerless to help, so she bid farewell to Yuan Zhenjun and returned to her own temple.

His dojo was still the former headquarters of the Five Thunder Sect, but now the Five Thunder Sect no longer existed, and all the disciples had entered the Five Thunder Academy. The headquarters of the Five Thunder Sect had also been rebuilt by Qin Sang with great magic power and became a blessed land of immortals.

Back in his cave, Qin Sang calmed his mind and entered a meditative state, whereupon the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Talisman appeared in his heart.

The talisman is the most complex talisman Qin Sang has ever seen, even surpassing the Thunder Sacrifice Oath. Although both are of the fourth rank, there are differences in their levels. No wonder that the insights gained from comprehending the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Talisman could be written into a profound and comprehensive explanation.

Regardless of rank, the steps to comprehend a talisman are the same: first, dissect the talisman's form, and then delve deeper step by step.

With the "True Explanation of Purple Void" as a reference, disassembling the talisman shape was not difficult. Qin Sang quickly grasped the key to the first dispersal of the shape and found suitable spiritual materials from the rare and precious materials given by Yuan Zhenjun. He completed the first step of casting the altar in one fell swoop!
Looking at the Divine Thunder Seal in the altar now, it seems to have gained a touch of Daoist charm.

Qin Sang examined it closely, but always felt something was missing. He knew the reason very well, because he was not a Thunder Path cultivator, but rather a Lesser Vehicle Killing Path cultivator.

This is what the Daoist court refers to as the incompatibility between scriptures and talismans. This hidden danger will become increasingly apparent as the cultivator's realm improves.

Qin Sang looked down at his hands, and two balls of lightning appeared out of thin air in his palms. The violent lightning power was unusually docile in his hands. Lightning was born and destroyed, intertwined like a net.

Gradually, a purple lightning bolt suddenly appeared, as if the world had been created and the first wisp of purple energy had been born. The purple energy came from the east and the lightning was born, as if it contained the ultimate truth of the world, mysterious and profound, and hovered in his palm.

The talisman carrying the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Talisman is called Purple Void Thunder Guide. Qin Sang is using this talisman now, but since he has only comprehended the first form of its dispersion, its power is weak.

Qin Sang focused his mind on sensing the purple lightning in his palm. He possessed an altar and talismans, and in the future, he could also unleash the Purple Void Lightning Guide and other lightning-based talismans for combat. However, he ultimately had not yet mastered the Way of Lightning. Even though its power was still formidable, there was still a difference between him and a true lightning cultivator in subtle ways.

Purple lightning swirled around him. Qin Sang pondered for a moment, then looked at the Immortal Guide of the Myriad Gods of Thunder.

Above the Immortal Guide, the number of talisman gods corresponding to the Purple Void Thunder Treasure Talisman is even smaller, and their titles all seem to contain divine power, such as the Supreme Crimson Heaven Great Law Lord, the Supreme Jade Palace Primordial Life Literary Lord, the Rain Master Primordial Lord, the Thunder Commander Azure Lord, the Dragon Thunder Lord, and so on.

I wonder how many talisman gods the Thunder Department has recast now. Without talisman gods, Qin Sang's possession of the Myriad Gods Thunder God Immortal Guide is useless. Now that he has become a True Lord of the Dao Court, there is no reason not to use his power. In the future, when he encounters a powerful enemy, he can transform into a god to fight. Summoning these talisman gods is much easier than summoning the Thunder Ancestor. Besides, he can't always summon the Thunder Ancestor when something happens; Zhang Tianshi won't cooperate every time.

Based on Qin Sang's understanding of the Dao Court, rebuilding the Talisman God is far more difficult than producing a True Lord. In the early days of the Dao Court, the focus must be on the Fighting Department.

Qin Sang had just become a True Lord and did not yet have the ability to summon the Talisman God on his own. These thoughts only flashed through his mind, and he did not immediately put them into action.

He placed the treasures from the mustard seed bag into the small cave, and the cave immediately fell silent. Then, Qin Sang pondered for a long time, and a phoenix cry came from his body, and the image of the Azure Phoenix appeared behind his head.

'Shuh! '

The Dharma image landed on the opposite side.

Qin Sang examined his own Dharma form. During this time, an idea had been lingering in his mind.

He is a genuine Daoist deity. Although the Daoist court is unwilling to get too involved with him, the Daoist scriptures, especially the Thunder Department's scriptures, should be able to grant him any request.

Why not use the great inheritance that you clearly possess?

With the Jade Buddha protecting him, Qin Sang doesn't need to be confined to one path; he can also combine with the Thunder Path.

The problem is, what should be used to combine with Thunder Avenue?

If it is still the Dharmakaya, even with a jade Buddha, can the Dharmakaya remain so stable when faced with the simultaneous onslaught of two great paths?
Recalling the scene of Lei Zu's descent in the Talisman Realm, Qin Sang felt that the Dharma Body, Dharma Form, and Yang Spirit could each merge with the Dao separately, but it would be best if they each merged with only one Great Dao.

There's no need to think about the Yang God; since the foundation of the Dao is on the Lotus Platform, it will definitely combine with fire to practice the Great Dao.

Then only the Dharma Form remains. Although it cultivates the "Heavenly Demon Refining Form," the Dharma Form is the Azure Phoenix Dharma Form, which controls the Azure Phoenix True Thunder. Based on this, changing the Dao Foundation and rebuilding the Thunder Technique should be feasible.

The cultivation technique "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" itself has problems. First, it cannot find the Destiny Star. Even if it is found in the future, Qin Sang is unwilling to transform into the Demon Star.

No matter how you look at it, "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" is no longer suitable for her, but Qin Sang is still hesitating!
Qin Sang had always had a question: if the Ancient Demon Court wasn't in the Qilin Cave Heaven, then where was it?

Could the terrifying abyss he sensed while searching for his destiny star be the location of the Ancient Demon Court, and could "Heavenly Demon Refinement" be the key to unlocking the Ancient Demon Court?
The Ancient Demon Court is so valuable that it attracts the North Sea Dragon Palace and the Phoenix Clan, and even alarmed the Great Ascension Ancestor of the Heavenly Demons. As Qin Sang enters the Integration Realm, she is about to embark on a new journey.

Next, he has only one goal—the Mahayana stage!

Breaking through to the Mahayana realm cannot rely on external forces such as the Dao Court; Qin Sang must now begin to plan for himself.

If one could acquire the treasures of the ancient demon court, it would undoubtedly greatly enhance one's own strength.

The Dragon and Phoenix clans must have discovered some traces related to the Ancient Demon Court in the Great Wind Plains; otherwise, they wouldn't have mistaken the Qilin Cave Heaven for the Ancient Demon Court. Therefore, it can be inferred that the Qilin that left its original inheritance in the Qilin Cave Heaven must have a connection to the Ancient Demon Court.

This Qilin comes from the Storm Realm, and so does "Heavenly Demon Refining Form". Could the two be related? Even more so, the bone flute that carries "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" is a Qilin's possession!

Thinking of this, Qin Sang took out the bone flute.

Previously, he had always regarded the bone flute as a treasured 'scripture'. When he began to suspect that his destiny star was related to the ancient demon court, he had this idea and tried to find out deeper secrets from the bone flute. When Faxiang went to Qilin Cave, he also brought the bone flute with him, hoping to make a difference.

However, before the great battle at Qilin Cave Heaven, Qin Sang had studied the bone flute multiple times, but to no avail. Now that he was a Nascent Soul cultivator, would he make any new discoveries?
Thinking of this, Qin Sang reached out and grasped the bone flute, once again studying this treasure.

Without the intervention of the Dharma Aspect, Qin Sang could only see the first half of "Heavenly Demon Refining Form," while the rest was shrouded in mist. Only when the Dharma Aspect intervened did a new chapter emerge from the mist.

Previously, Qin Sang was helpless against it, but now things were different. Qin Sang then made various attempts to test the bone flute. After some investigation, the results were disappointing, but Qin Sang did not give up. Recalling her experiences during the cultivation of the Dharma Image, she decided to let the Dharma Image connect with the Destiny Star.

Qin Sang was very skilled and immediately sensed her destiny star by activating the "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" technique.

The connection between him and his destiny star was already very clear, yet he could not see it; his destiny star remained lost in that unknown abyss.

The closer one gets to the abyss, the stronger the fear it brings. However, Qin Sang is no longer the same as before. He silently uses his killing sword to protect himself, and he is indeed more resilient to the impact of the abyss.

At this moment, Qin Sang felt as if he were near an abyss, about to slip and fall at any moment. A powerful sense of danger surged towards him, preventing him from moving forward. Qin Sang even felt a faint suction force trying to pull him in.

What will happen if you let yourself slide into the abyss? Will you successfully find your destiny star, or will you be doomed forever?
Qin Sang could only barely manage to stay afloat back then, but now she still had some strength left. She steadied herself and cautiously lingered on the edge of the abyss.

I lingered there for an unknown amount of time.

Qin Sang and Fa Xiang sat facing each other in the quiet cave, except for the fluctuating aura emanating from him.

The area where the Dharma image was located was somewhat dim, as if shrouded in shadow.

Suddenly, Qin Sang's aura erupted, as if she had forcibly broken free from something. Accompanied by a booming sound, a powerful wave burst forth. Fortunately, the great formation reacted in time and suppressed the wave, preventing it from affecting the Daoist temple. However, it still caused the surrounding area to shake violently, and the shockwave could not be calmed for a long time.

Amidst the chaos, heavy breathing echoed from the cave, and both the Dharma Image and the True Body wore expressions of surprise and uncertainty.

Just a moment ago, Qin Sang had the illusion that she had fallen into an abyss, but she managed to break free at the last second.

His gaze was like lightning, shooting towards the bone flute in Faxiang's hand. Just a moment ago, an unusual halo seemed to flash across the surface of the bone flute.

Now, the bone flute has been restored to its original state, and everything is normal.

"Something's wrong! Something's strange!"

Qin Sang wondered to herself, could the bone flute really be the key to the abyss? But she hadn't sensed anything in the abyss resonating with the bone flute just now.

Could it be that the abyss has been dormant for too long, and the power within it has been worn down by time, becoming too weak, which is why it has been unable to resonate with the bone flute until now that its cultivation level is higher, thus allowing it to barely react?

In any case, the bone flute is clearly a crucial item, and is by no means a simple treasure trove of demonic magic.

Thinking this, Qin Sang's body swayed, and his Dharma Image merged into his physical body, becoming one with it. Previously, due to his doubts about the *Heavenly Demon Refining Form*, Qin Sang worried that the Dharma Image might steal his physical essence, but in his current view, his initial thoughts were laughable. From the moment he began cultivating the *Heavenly Demon Refining Form*, his physical body and Dharma Image were inseparable; the Dharma Image itself originated from the essence of his physical body.

Qin Sang calmed herself down again, placed the bone flute flat on her lap, and began to connect with her destiny star while closely monitoring the changes in the bone flute.

At first, everything was the same as before, but as Qin Sang approached the unknown abyss, she returned to the position she had reached before, and the bone flute in front of her suddenly flashed with a neon-like halo!
