Immortality begins with meditation puppets

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

The Dragon-Subduing Immortal was chasing a dragon, his eyes fixed on the dragon's rear end. Even though his throat was burning from exhaustion, he persevered in following its tail relentlessly.

"Puff, puff!"

While being chased by the dragon, Master Fuhu was sitting on the shoulder of the black-robed giant, already at full power. The damned ancient dragon behind him was still just playing with the little insect, occasionally sticking out its dragon claws and plunging into the back of the black-robed giant. It was only because the black-robed giant could transfer the attacks into the Nine Nether River that the black-robed giant was able to do this; otherwise, the black-robed giant would have been tormented by the damned ancient dragon long ago.

"Big brother, I don't want to play anymore, I want to go home!"

Master Fuhu was on the verge of tears. As a fourth-tier tough guy, he ultimately couldn't stand up to the remnant soul of the ancient dragon.

Life is full of surprises.

Unexpected events are especially common in the Land of No Breath.

According to his original plan, together with his good brother Jianglong, with Jianglong's expertise in playing with dragons, the Samsara Mirror which could isolate the spiritual senses of the evil spirits in this place, and the pseudo Styx Robe which had eaten half a full fourth-tier treasure ship and wouldn't cause trouble for a while, the two brothers would have a sure thing playing with a fifth-tier cloud dragon that was smuggled into the Tianyuan Realm and suppressed by heaven and earth. There were no surprises.

But as soon as they entered this place of absolute despair, they found a trace of a cloud dragon and were about to make a move when, by sheer coincidence, they heard a command from a celestial master. The cloud dragon was then swept away by a divine force and pulled out of the Sea of ​​Absolute Despair. Fuhu and Jianglong both knew that Celestial Master Tong was on Su Qing's ship, and this must have been a trick by Su Qing and Celestial Master Tong. Although they were angry that the two of them were stealing the monster, they knew that their fists were no match for the two of them, so they swallowed their anger and went to find another cloud dragon.

With the Mirror of Reincarnation in hand, even the dense fog of the Land of Despair could not stop the two brothers from playing with dragons. However, after they found the cloud dragon, they discovered that things were far more complicated than they had imagined.

They saw an ancient azure dragon soul, powerful and substantial, resembling a dragon god, devouring the cloud dragon's body inch by inch. Before it, the fifth-order cloud dragon, which was considered a behemoth even in the outside world, was as weak as an earthworm or mayfly.

While the remnant soul of the Azure Dragon was devouring the Cloud Dragon, four Spirit Treasure Sword Cultivators unleashed their sword techniques and displayed their unique skills, attacking the ancient dragon's remnant soul. However, just as the honest man who tried to protect his beloved wife from the bully often lacked the strength to do so, despite the four sword cultivators' best efforts to prevent the ancient dragon's remnant soul from possessing the Cloud Dragon's body, they could not change the fact that the ancient dragon's remnant soul had entered the Cloud Dragon's body, thus gaining a body and a spirit, and was able to live a second life in the present world through the Cloud Dragon's flesh, thus being reborn.

The two brothers, who witnessed everything from afar, were no longer able to do so.

The five-tiered cloud dragon was beautiful and well-proportioned. The two brothers gritted their teeth and mustered their courage, daring to try their luck for the sake of the fifth-tier path.

But this dragon soul, which had taken over the body of the cloud dragon and been reborn, with its body stretching like rolling mountains and its eyes shining like the sun and moon from afar, was an aura of a powerful and formidable dragon. It didn't seem like something the two brothers could play with; in its presence, the two brothers were like toys.

Those five spirit treasure sword cultivators have already become toys for the Azure Dragon Soul.

The eldest brother, dressed in a green robe and carrying a spirit sword, was handsome and had superb swordsmanship. He was suppressed to the ground by the ancient dragon's soul power, his head tilted to the side, his mouth drooling, and he was swallowed up by the ancient dragon without even realizing it.

The junior sister, with her long white dress and beautiful legs, was more delicate than a flower. She was bitten in half by the ancient dragon, and her blood essence was scattered. The dragon's might then dispersed it into a blood mist. The ordinary junior brother was heartbroken and immediately followed his good senior brother and junior sister.

Without any suspense, the ancient dragon soul, which had just been revived and obtained the body of a cloud dragon, displayed the mighty power of the sixth-order Void Refinement level. Not to mention that these few spiritual treasure sword cultivators were still suffering from the suppression of heaven and earth and could not fully exert their strength and abilities, even if they were at their peak, they would have no ability to resist this opponent who was far superior to themselves.

The only one who could offer any resistance was their master, Li Sanyang, who led them through the dungeon.

He achieved early success, possessing top-grade spiritual roots and superior Dharma bones. He reached the Foundation Establishment stage at seventeen and the Golden Core stage at thirty-five. After joining the Lingbao Sect, he received cultivation from the sect and enjoyed a smooth journey, earning a renowned reputation throughout the myriad realms.

Having learned that a crack had appeared in the barrier between heaven and earth in the Tianyuan Realm, he intended to bring his three disciples here to subdue demons and monsters and gain some experience, but he never expected to end up like this.

"Aiya! I don't care what your identity was in ancient times, you dared to kill my beloved disciple, today I will make you pierce the heart with ten thousand swords to vent my hatred!"

Li Sanyang was furious, his spirit focused and his energy surging. He condensed a green light sword about a foot long three inches above his head. As soon as this sword appeared, even the Azure Dragon Soul, who had been indifferent to all cultivators since its resurrection and regarded them as ants, couldn't help but narrow its huge dragon eyes.

“With a full spirit and abundant energy, a true spirit is born. A single point of true spirit transforms into a green lotus, and a mere cultivator transforms into a divine being. To be able to give birth to this divine light green lotus sword is something I can look up to.”

I have already consumed those two cultivators, so I cannot return them to you. However, I can give you their souls.

Are you satisfied now?

Gu Canglong seemed somewhat wary of the Divine Light Azure Sword and intentionally yielded.

Meanwhile, Li Sanyang, who had just been angry, had now sobered up.

This Divine Light Azure Lotus Sword is a great divine power that only the direct disciples of their Lingbao Sect can cultivate. The spiritual light of the primordial spirit is gathered into one sword. When the sword is unleashed, one risks half of one's life. If one fails to kill the opponent or suffers damage in the process, one will suffer the consequences of a damaged foundation and a flawed primordial spirit.

Li Sanyang knew his own abilities. He could barely unleash the Divine Light Azure Lotus Sword, which possessed the ability to reverse the upper-level attacks, but that didn't mean he couldn't handle the Azure Dragon Soul opposite him. According to his judgment, this Azure Dragon was one of the Ten Ancestral Dragons of the True Dragon Clan in ancient times, the Azure Dragon King, a true peak seventh-level powerhouse, one of the rulers who could speak at the table anywhere in the myriad realms.

Although it is unknown why such beings have been sealed away for so long, resulting in the disappearance of their physical bodies and the loss of their divine souls, the depth of their foundation is beyond comprehension and is beyond his ability to contend with.

The reason this old fellow was willing to concede was not because he was afraid of the Divine Light Azure Sword, but because of the Spirit Treasure Sect behind the Divine Light Azure Sword.

The hot-tempered Lingbao sword cultivators could tolerate the killing of one or two inner disciples of the Lingbao Sect because of the Azure Dragon King's status. But if the Azure Dragon King dared to kill a direct descendant like themselves who had received the true teachings of the Dao, even if the Azure Dragon King lived another life, it wouldn't be enough for the Lingbao Sect to kill!

Since he lacked the strength to challenge the other party, and the other party was wary of the power behind him, and both were willing to compromise, Li Sanyang naturally accepted the situation and nodded slightly, saying:
"Give me back my beloved disciple's soul, and I may stop today. But this matter is not over. When the Heavenly Origin Realm's boundary opens and I return to the Hall of Myriad Realms, I will surely come back to fight you again and avenge today's humiliation!"

"Oh? Besides the Tianyuan Realm and the Void Realm, there are actually countless other realms in this world? So, those beings who fled back then and were known as the preservers of the Tianyuan flame are still doing well? Good, good, I'll have to go find these old friends and catch up when I have time!" The Azure Dragon King spat out dragon blood bubbles and sent the souls of Li Sanyang's three disciples to his hands. He was just showing off his skills and didn't care about his talk of revenge in the future. He was only interested in the myriad realms that Li Sanyang mentioned.

It should be known that in ancient times, Tianyuan Realm was the center of all realms, with countless rare and precious materials, and powerful clans frequently emerging. It was full of infinite possibilities. The other realms were merely vassals of Tianyuan, and it was extremely difficult for even a fifth-order Nascent Soul cultivator to be born within them.

Since the beginning of the Demonic Tribulation, the evil forces, fearing the strength and difficulty of conquering the Tianyuan Realm, adopted a strategy of first gradually devouring all the other realms, using the beings of those realms as resources, and then surrounding the Tianyuan Realm.

At that time, the realms outside the Tianyuan Realm were the first to be attacked by the demons, resulting in the devastation of all realms. The area outside Tianyuan was transformed into a demonic realm, and these demons used these demonic realms as springboards to continuously wreak havoc and devour the Tianyuan Realm.

Until the final battle, when the evil forces were at their peak, the Tianyuan Realm split into two factions: one was the pro-war faction led by the Witch Clan, the Dragon Clan, and the Human Clan; the other was the pro-peace faction represented by various immortal sects, the Demon Clan, and the Cloud Dragon, Earth Dragon, and other dragons whom the Azure Dragon and Golden Dragon regarded as a disgrace to the Dragon Clan.

The pro-war faction believes that Tianyuan is the root and the only true realm, while the myriad realms are merely dreamlike illusions reflected in Tianyuan. If they flee to the heavens and abandon Tianyuan, then even if the Dao-merging masters disperse their Dao to suppress the twelve Heavenly Demon Lords and use numerous true artifacts and treasures to suppress countless evil spirits, in order to give future generations a chance to fight against evil spirits again, their efforts will ultimately fail because the people have gone to other realms and lost the creation of Tianyuan.

Since they have already decided to break everything and start over, leaving hope to the next generation, then these old guys should be more inclined to take the straight path rather than the crooked one, and do everything in their power to suppress all the remaining evil spirits in this world, leaving a bright and clear world for future generations.

The peace faction, however, felt that they shouldn't trouble future generations too much. These old guys should also play a role in passing on their knowledge and skills. The various lineages of cultivation and the essence of the bloodlines of all races should not all be buried with the Tianyuan Realm. They should flee to the myriad worlds and eliminate the bridgehead of evil forces while slowly developing themselves. When the time is right, it will not be too late for them to enter the Tianyuan Realm again to welcome the great era of contention.

The differences of opinion between the pro-war and pro-peace factions were a distant past in the eyes of the Azure Dragon King. Looking at the myriad realms of the heavens and the myriad beings, with countless creatures and all things flourishing, and the many lineages that migrated from the Tianyuan Realm continuing uninterrupted except for the various Dao Integration Ancestors whose whereabouts were unknown, he thought that no matter what the final outcome was, the pro-peace faction had been much better off than the pro-war faction in recent years.

Recalling the past, the Azure Dragon King sighed deeply, his dragon eyes fixed on Li Sanyang again: "Let me ask you, do you know the Kunpeng?"

"The Demon Master Kunpeng, whose name is known throughout the myriad realms, is the supreme ruler of countless demon races in all the heavens and myriad realms. Naturally, I know him!"

Li Sanyang sensed that Canglonghun's emotions were not quite right, like a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time and could erupt at any moment. At this moment, he did not dare to act tough or presumptuously in front of him, and replied cautiously.

"Oh, all the Dao-Merging Lords have collapsed, but it hasn't collapsed, and instead it's become the common ruler of the demon race?"

The Azure Dragon King snorted coldly, clearly harboring a deep-seated grudge against this Kunpeng. Although it was somewhat displeased to hear that its enemy was living a life of luxury, it did not take its anger out on Li Sanyang. It turned its dragon eyes, indicating that Li Sanyang could leave.

Li Sanyang felt as if he had been granted a pardon. He hurriedly collected the souls of his three beloved disciples, then rode his sword into the sky and headed straight for the Heavenly Gate. He would not be able to come to the Tianyuan Realm again before breaking through to the sixth level of the Void Refinement Realm. Although the spiritual energy of this realm had been suppressed for many years and there were few Nascent Soul cultivators, there were too many old monsters in this realm. Who knew who he would encounter next time, after meeting the Azure Dragon King this time?
His future is bright, so there's no need for him to take this risk. Only when he reaches the sixth level, possesses the inner cave heaven, and can truly be both offensive and defensive, will he dare to explore this realm.

"Master, are we leaving already? This place holds great opportunities, we're supposed to be exorcising demons and monsters, aren't we going to do our assigned tasks?"

The ordinary senior brother, having lost his physical body, still longed for job opportunities, which made Li Sanyang frown.

Speaking of opportunities, there are indeed still opportunities to be seized here.

The Azure Dragon King was just an accident; apart from it, the other few demons that have revived here are within my capabilities.

While they have only recently recovered and are far weaker than before, killing these demons will not only allow you to collect a massive amount of merit, but if you are lucky enough to find that your Dao patterns match those of these demons, you might even obtain a Five Elders Dao Pattern.

Just as Li Sanyang was getting restless, thinking about whether to launch a surprise attack and try his luck again.

Suddenly, sweet rain fell from the sky, and purple clouds rose from the sea, which was an omen of a great and meritorious deed descending.

"Has someone actually slain a high-level demon? Do local cultivators possess such abilities?"

Li Sanyang already knew how difficult it was to deal with and kill high-ranking demons through the sect's records. With his abilities, he knew that he would suffer a loss if he was not careful when dealing with a demon whose strength had recovered to the fifth level.

Therefore, upon seeing someone slay a demon, and that this demon was a local Tianyuan cultivator, he was quite surprised.

After all, since the ancient calamity, the Tianyuan Realm has become a spiritual wasteland, and its opportunities and fortunes are far inferior to those of the myriad realms. Even now that spiritual energy has recovered, it has only been a few years. How could it be possible to produce an existence with strength and methods that surpasses even his, the direct descendant of the spiritual treasure?

"The cultivators of Tianyuan have guarded Tianyuan for countless years, bearing heavy burdens and moving forward to this day. It is understandable that this world now favors them more!"

Li Sanyang shook his head, not believing that the other person was more talented than him, but attributing it to the favor of heaven and earth, and that he had achieved such a feat with the help of heaven and earth.

Then, he saw a magnificent scene where three streams of merit and fortune descended one after another.

"The local cultivators are too domineering. They're trying to monopolize all the evil spirits in this area and devour all the merits, fortune, and Dao patterns!"

Li Sanyang was furious. He focused his gaze on the place where the merit and fortune were descending, wanting to see which ignorant cultivator was so arrogant and selfish.

Upon seeing him, his pupils flashed with bloodlust. He cried out in alarm and, along with the souls of his three disciples, fled far away from the Tianyuan Realm as if his life depended on it.

Yaoshou!

There are so many old and ancient people in the Tianyuan Realm!
He had just gotten rid of the Azure Dragon King when he spotted an ancient great shaman wielding the Xing Tian Blood Axe. Even a glance from him was enough for the domineering Blood Axe to chase after him and teach him a lesson before he gave up.

"When I return this time, I will ask my fellow Daoists from Kunlun Mountain to help you create lotus root bodies. But remember, whatever happened here in the Tianyuan Realm today, do not tell anyone except our sect elders. In my opinion, after this Azure Dragon King is resurrected, it may not wait for the Tianyuan Realm to open its gates and all the worlds to enter and compete for supremacy. It may first go to all the heavens and myriad worlds and stir up a storm!" (End of this chapter)
