I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 666 Divine Powers at the Chaotic Heaven Level

Gu Yuanqing's eyes lit up as he observed the brand-new Beiquan Town World Seal.

The original Beiquanshan Town World Seal seemed to have only unleashed less than 50% of its own power, as if it were merely a crude stitching together, using the accumulated enormous power to oppress and imprison the enemy, without actually becoming one with it.

The technique he acquired at this time was exceptionally refined.

This supernatural power consumed far more incense offerings than Gu Yuanqing had anticipated, almost exhausting all of them.

But it was undoubtedly worth it. Looking at the methods of cultivation and application, Gu Yuanqing felt that this supernatural power could be used in this way.

Moreover, the perspective on cultivation seems to be even more refreshing.

"The illusory image of Beiquan Mountain is the condensation of my spiritual will from observing this mountain and cultivating the Great Dao over hundreds of years. Everything about it can be controlled at will. But now it seems that I am still only using its form, not its spirit; I only grasp its weight, not its essence."

Gu Yuanqing sighed softly. In the end, he realized that he had still spent too little time cultivating, and his vision and knowledge were still too narrow.

However, once you reach the Chaotic Heaven level, creating a single supernatural power is still too difficult.

Perhaps it wasn't apparent before, but when compared with the cultivation methods derived from the Dao of Derivation, it becomes very clear that many imperfections are instantly revealed.

Of course, with the passage of time, it may eventually become what it is now, but who knows how long that will take.

Overall, Gu Yuanqing felt very lucky. Fortunately, Yandao existed; otherwise, the very matter of cultivation techniques would have forced him to make many choices.

Seeing the dwindling incense offerings, although it somewhat disrupted his original plans, the gains from the Beiquan Town World Seal alone were enough.

He carefully studied the new method of cultivating supernatural powers from beginning to end, and then began to practice it.

The supernatural powers at the Chaotic Heaven level are all based on the imprint of the Dao and combined with one's own will.

The strength of the Undying Realm lies not only in its immortality, but also in the fact that all its powers, such as the soul, body, and Dao imprints, are integrated through its own will. In other words, it can exert supernatural power like the Shattered Heaven Realm without doing anything deliberately, and has immense power with every move.

The illusory image of Beiquan Mountain in Gu Yuanqing's sea of ​​consciousness was formed from his own will, and what he needed to do was to integrate the power of the Great Dao into it.

With a thought, the illusory image of Beiquan Mountain appeared in the Celestial World, emerging behind his soul like a halo of extraordinary phenomena.

His spirit sat down cross-legged, formed a hand seal, and then with a thought, his own Dao fire ignited, transforming from the initial black and white Yin-Yang Tribulation Fire into the Chaotic Primordial Fire.

At the same time, the various Daoist imprints in the Celestial World shone brightly, enveloped by the power of the Great Dao.

The illusory image of Beiquan Mountain trembled slightly under the influence of the Chaotic Primordial Fire and the Daoist Imprint, and an aura began to flow and change within the mountain.

Gu Yuanqing slowly propelled these changes with his mind. Gradually, these changes began to accelerate, and certain nodes were gradually forming as they flowed.

These nodes are like acupoints in a person, where energy condenses and forms vortexes, and the energy of the Dao imprint begins to condense within them.

As each node was created, the aura of the entire mountain range's phantom gradually changed.

At first, these flows of energy formed naturally under the influence of hand seals and the Great Dao imprint. Gradually, Gu Yuanqing's own consciousness also slowly found the underlying patterns.

Then the power of manipulation was added to it, and the speed of the flow of energy increased.

Moreover, it became increasingly smooth, and the aura of the Dao principle mark within the phantom grew stronger and stronger, with rune lines already outlining it, as if a miniature version of the Dao principle mark appeared within it.

Indeed, this divine power, derived from the Dao of Derivation, takes a clever approach, tempering one's own will through the process of refining Dao artifacts.

This method imprints the profound truths one has come to understand into one's spirit and will!
The process of cultivating this supernatural power is extremely long, even with the aid of the art of controlling objects.

Fortunately, there was nothing else to do at the moment, so Gu Yuanqing was able to calm down and slowly cultivate.

This period of cultivation lasted for half a month, after which Gu Yuanqing had to stop.

Such a massive, mountain-like phantom of will requires a great deal of divine soul and true essence to be tempered by the Chaotic Primordial Fire.

True essence can be replenished by the vast ocean of vital energy, but the consumption of the soul is difficult to sustain.

He used the technique of controlling objects to freeze the appearance of the illusory image of Beiquan Mountain.
Then, holding the Pure Mind Stone, he entered a state of mountain contemplation to restore his divine soul.

Three days later, when it has returned to its best state, it disperses the frozen object and enters another state of cultivation.

Time passed day by day.

Gu Yuanqing broke away from cultivation six times to recover his vital energy, and after seven cultivation sessions, this supernatural power finally achieved minor success. He could maintain the imprint of the Dao principle and his own will in a state of fusion without needing to control objects to freeze the state.

The illusory image of Beiquan Mountain at this time was completely different from the past!
The entire illusory image became more realistic, and in a daze, it looked like a real mountain, with the charm of the Great Dao flowing over it, as if it were a real fairy mountain.

"Unfortunately, my willpower at this moment is only enough to condense the aura of thirty-six Dao Principle imprints onto it. If there were more, it would be difficult to stabilize it."

Gu Yuanqing was not surprised by this. It was already rare for an ordinary Dao artifact to be imprinted with nine Dao principles. More than that would likely cause the Dao artifact to collapse due to conflicts with the Great Dao.

If this mountain, formed from this will, had not originally belonged to Gu Yuanqing himself, he wouldn't even have been able to maintain its current appearance.

"However, it's enough!"

Gu Yuanqing raised his hand, and a miniature mountain floated in his palm. With a thought, the thirty-six Daoist imprints trembled slightly, and rune lines spread out from these imprints, quickly covering the entire mountain.

Gu Yuanqing then threw it, and the mountain flew out, landing directly on the Thinking Cliff behind the mountain.

The chains binding the Undying Demon Bloodwing Bat King, who had been imprisoned by Gu Yuanqing, loosened and he rolled to the ground. He suddenly awoke, feeling his magic power restored, and immediately tried to escape through the void. However, before he could make a move, a large mountain fell down.

With his own power further restricted, he was completely unable to move.

Boom!

His entire body turned into a blood mist.

Gu Yuanqing arrived at the Cliff of Contemplation and retrieved the Seal of Beiquan Town.

The Chaotic Undying Demon remained motionless for a long time. After several breaths, its aura began to gather, but any trace of its immortality had already been erased.

Gu Yuanqing waved his hand again, locking the Bloodwing Bat King back to the rock wall.

Ye Xuanxiao, who was standing to the side, had also been awakened. His pupils shrank, and even though he was suppressed, he could still see some things.

Naturally, they also knew that Gu Yuanqing had made great progress during this time.

Gu Yuanqing ignored the two men and instead looked down at the small mountain in his hand.

As the Immortal Mark faded, the Daoist imprints within the mountain also dimmed. "This is the erosion caused by the conflict between the Great Daos. Compared to the Chaotic Immortal Mark, my mark is still at a lower level. Even with the power of Beiquan Mountain, it is still difficult to kill it with a single blow. However, in the future, when facing the Chaotic Immortal, at least I will have a way to deal with it, unlike before when I was unable to harm its core."

Overall, Gu Yuanqing was quite satisfied, and his confidence increased considerably. Even if Hun Tian Bu Si Yao Si were to take a few hits, he would be severely injured and lose half his life.

Gu Yuanqing smiled, took a step back to the mountain peak, looked into the Divine Ruins, and then sent a wisp of his mind into it.

Standing in the forbidden land of Daoyuan, Gu Yuanqing looked into the distance with his Void-Piercing Heavenly Eye.

At present, the time of the Yuanhui is getting closer and closer. After the Yuanhui, the Linglong Grand Array will be restored. Even though the Lingyuan Realm has fallen, its power will still keep the Realm in a semi-closed state.

The demons would have to pay a much higher price to enter the Divine Ruins from beneath the Abyss.

In other words, the current battle situation presents the most favorable opportunity for the demon race.

In other words, it is very likely that the demon race will launch a full-scale war in the last year or so.

"Judging from the occasional conversations between the Bloodwing Bat King and Ye Xuanxiao, the Demon Clan has been seeking to control the forbidden area of ​​the Divine Ruins, but it is unknown whether they truly have control over it!"

Gu Yuanqing looked into the distance, but it was too far away. Unless the power of the forbidden area was fully unleashed, it would be difficult to observe the movements of the forbidden area.

He glanced around and vaguely spotted the demons lingering around the forbidden area of ​​Daoyuan.

However, the other party only monitored from a distance and did not dare to make a move. It was probably because they were frightened by the loss of the Bloodwing Bat King last time. In addition, the demons themselves were engaged in battle with the Primordial God Sect and could not spare any maneuver.

He then looked in the direction of the Boundary Gate, thinking to himself, "Since that person who resembles Li Lingyun is plotting to bring the Demon Race into the world and has even spread the news of the Boundary Gate, he is most likely also after the Boundary Gate. The key to the Boundary Gate is in Mu Tianheng's hands, so he certainly won't sit idly by. The Demon Race's attack is his best opportunity!"

Gu Yuanqing looked at it for a long time before finally focusing his gaze on the Taixu Creation Wheel above his head.

As a wisp of spirituality was born in his celestial world, his physical body, soul, and celestial world began to merge because of this wisp of spirituality, thus creating something from nothing. A wisp of life force containing innate energy was born from this. Gu Yuanqing seemed to have gained some vague understanding of the Dao of Creation by combining his insights from the Myriad Paths Returning to Flow Talisman he had cultivated.

Looking at the phantom of the Taixu Creation Wheel again now, it seems to have changed slightly.

Within the vast world where the Exquisite Realm is located, the divine artifacts of rules are the carriers of the Dao of this realm, and their bodies naturally contain the secrets of the Dao.

At this moment, Gu Yuanqing seemed to be able to vaguely perceive a trace of Daoist secrets contained within its form.

At that moment, Gu Yuanqing felt as if the shadow of the Taixu Creation Wheel was faintly visible in his sea of ​​consciousness, as if its great Dao was about to be reflected into Gu Yuanqing's mind.

If other cultivators in the Linglong Realm were to witness this scene, they would likely be overjoyed, for it is a symbol of comprehending the power of the Great Dao.

Gu Yuanqing frowned slightly, then with a thought, the illusory image of Beiquan Mountain flew up and landed heavily on the shadow of the Taixu Creation Wheel, immediately suppressing the mark.

"It seems my guess was correct!"

Watching the shadow completely disappear, Gu Yuanqing muttered to himself. He had entered it to verify the influence of the Beiquan Town World Seal on the power of the rule artifact.

As things stand, it seems to be going as he expected.

However, he immediately guided the clone back into the cave and used the method of observing mountains to carefully examine whether there was anything wrong with the clone.

After a long while, a slight smile finally appeared on his lips, and an idea vaguely formed in his mind.

"The Way of the Rule Artifact has flaws, but it would be a pity to leave such power unused. I have never dared to touch it, but now it seems that I have found a way."

This time, the cultivation method of Beiquan Town World Seal, derived from the Dao of Derivation, opened up some new ideas for Gu Yuanqing.

"Since I want to use its power but don't want to leave any hidden dangers for myself, why don't I completely transform the power of the divine artifact into a vessel? This way, it can be isolated from my own power, so I won't be harmed by it. Even if someone tries to possess my body, as long as my true self is in the Beiquan Cave Heaven, and the power of the Beiquan World-Suppressing Seal is always superior to the vessel formed by the Taixu Creation Ring, then I can naturally have nothing to worry about!"

"However, this method still needs careful consideration. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to conduct a more thorough analysis after the incense offerings have been restored!"

Gu Yuanqing was not in a hurry, after all, the power of the divine artifact was just icing on the cake and had nothing to do with the foundation of cultivation. His path to enlightenment was smooth, so he did not want to take any risks.

Moreover, the battle in the Divine Ruins was none of his concern. Even if the battle caused the heavens and earth to collapse, as long as it did not affect him, he would be fine.

He had absolutely no interest in that so-called Dharma Source Realm!
His gaze then fell upon the Northern Spring Cave, where he saw Li Chengyi already preparing for his tribulation. Compared to the battle of the Divine Ruins, he was more concerned about his son's path to immortality.

He stepped onto the tribulation platform.

While personally inspecting and setting up the tribulation-crossing auxiliary formation, Li Chengyi greeted him with delight, saying, "Father, you have finally emerged from seclusion."

The little fox, transformed into human form, was also helping out. She quickly gave a graceful bow. After so many years, she was no longer afraid of Gu Yuanqing, only a little nervous. What she was nervous about was that Gu Yuanqing wouldn't let her be with Cheng Yi.

After all, Li Chengyi was a human, while she was a demon. Over the years, she had read a lot of stories in the Qian Yuan Realm, most of which talked about the differences between humans and demons, and even about how humans and demons were hunted down because they married.

If Gu Yuanqing doesn't allow it, then even if she manages to get Li Chengyi to accept her, it won't lead to anything in the end.

Li Shi'an, Li Haotian, Qin Wuyai, and others were all standing nearby and quickly came over to pay their respects.

Over the years, they have met Gu Yuanqing less and less. Even though Gu Yuanqing remains as peaceful as ever, the difference in their cultivation levels, coupled with the invisible blessing that the entire cave heaven bestows upon Gu Yuanqing as the master of the cave heaven, makes them feel inferior.

This seemingly disparity in their very being made it impossible for them to treat Gu Yuanqing as an equal. Even though Li Haotian had a relationship with Li Chengyi, he didn't dare to look Gu Yuanqing in the eye.

Gu Yuanqing smiled and nodded in acknowledgment to each of them, and finally asked Li Chengyi, "Are you confident?"

Li Chengyi smiled and said, "Over the years, I have been taught by my father and my soul has been nourished by the magic treasures left by my mother. I have also gained some understanding of the Yin and Yang principles. I am more confident in passing the three tribulations of the Heavenly Change than I was in passing the tribulation of Heaven and Man."

Gu Yuanqing nodded slightly: "That's fine then, but don't be careless. Try your best to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Great Dao contained in the Heavenly Tribulation, which will also be beneficial for breaking through to the Yin-Yang Realm in the future."

“I understand!” Li Chengyi said.

After chatting for a while, Gu Yuanqing left because he felt that the people around him seemed a little uncomfortable standing there.

Back on the main peak, Gu Yuanqing looked at the crowd on the opposite mountaintop from afar and sighed softly.

The higher one's cultivation level, the fewer people one seems to have to talk to. In the past, one could drink and chat freely with people like Li Shi'an, but now that's no longer possible.

Climbing the main road is like climbing a mountain; the higher you go, the fewer people are around you.

Now, Li Shi'an and others can only look up to him with awe.

Is walking the great path destined to be a solitary journey?

Gu Yuanqing stood with his hands behind his back, unable to resist looking towards the outer realm where the Celestial Steed was located.
