I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 693 Opening the Inheritance

Day two.

The teleportation array between Qian Yuan Realm and Wan Bao Realm is activated.

This also symbolizes that the Qian Yuan Realm, which had been sealed off for over a hundred years, has once again officially entered the Linglong Realm.

The last time was when it successfully ascended from the Floating Realm to the Exquisite Realm. The newly born realm was like a piece of fat meat, and many forces wanted to take a bite.

In the eyes of other realms, the Qian Yuan Realm is like a ferocious beast, and the only thing to do is to avoid being targeted by it.

The Ancient Divine Sect has declared itself invincible, and the Qian Yuan Realm is virtually unrivaled in the Linglong Realm.

News of the Yan Shen Sect's misfortune gradually spread. Even though the Yan Shen Sect had strictly ordered its members to keep quiet, what force could possibly keep such a secret?

Upon hearing that the Heavenly Punishment summoned by the Five Directions Formation had not harmed Gu Yuanqing in the slightest, and that the sect's protective formation could not withstand a single move from the opponent, all the realm masters of the Linglong Realm felt a chill in their hearts.

They had expected at least a major battle, which is why Qin Tianyang and the others died.

But the reality was far more terrifying than they had imagined.

The Five Directions Grand Array is the greatest reliance of the lords of various realms. Only by relying on it can they maintain their control over their respective realms and at the same time block the invasion of external sects.

Now that even that has completely lost its effect, it means that they are powerless to resist Gu Yuanqing's attack.

Moreover, the Crimson Flame Realm is a large realm, not to mention the other smaller realms.

With the Ancient Divine Sect self-proclaiming its authority, the Qian Yuan Realm became the absolute overlord that no one could challenge!
Under Li Chengyi's leadership, the Qian Yuanzong and the Daqian Dynasty naturally would not miss such an opportunity.

The various exquisite realms contain many items needed for cultivation, such as spiritual herbs, spiritual medicines, and various rare and precious materials, many of which are not found in the Qian Yuan Realm. These rare items each have their own unique uses and can assist in cultivation, even benefiting those at the Heavenly Transformation level.

Over the past hundred years, the cultivators of the Qian Yuan Realm have not only been practicing cultivation, but have also learned a lot about other realms in the ancient world.

That's why Li Chengyi provided the transaction list even before the teleportation array was activated.

Li Chengyi only met Qiu Han of the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce once initially; after that, Li Guanrong of the Daqian Dynasty took charge.

Faced with the demands of the Qian Yuan Realm, almost no force dared to refuse.

For the sake of long-term interests, Qian Yuan Realm did not exploit anyone in the transactions; everything was done fairly.

Besides Tianbao Trading Company, Qian Yuan Realm also began negotiating and trading with other forces.

The entire Great Qian machine was thus put into operation. Compared to a hundred years ago, when there were not many capable people, the Great Qian now has hundreds of Void Heaven cultivators and quite a few Celestial cultivators, making it a place teeming with talent.

With Gu Yuanqing's help, everything went incredibly smoothly, and no force dared to jump out and seek their own demise at this time!

Of course, all of this is no longer of much concern to Gu Yuanqing.

With the Taigu Divine Sect having sealed itself off, and no longer having any enemies in the Qian Yuan Realm, these mundane matters could naturally be handled by Li Chengyi and others.

In the next hundred years, Gu Yuanqing's goal is to break through to the Undying Chaos Realm!

This time, the Ancient Divine Sect inexplicably sealed itself off, handing over all initiative to Gu Yuanqing, which means that they felt they had absolute confidence in the future, otherwise they would not have allowed him to grow unchecked.

All of these factors gave Gu Yuanqing reason to suspect that the next one to make a move would likely be a powerful expert from the Ancient Divine Sect.

……

In the courtyard.

The father and son sat in the pavilion.

"How's the deal with Tianbao Trading Company going?" Gu Yuanqing asked.

Li Chengyi said, "Everything is going smoothly. Now these sects and forces are eager to trade with my Qian Yuan Realm."

Gu Yuanqing nodded: "Then that's fine. A hundred years is enough time to reap a lot and raise the strength of the Qian Yuan Realm to a new level."

"Father, rest assured, everything is going according to plan. These small matters can be handled. The only troublesome thing is the Divine Soul Elixir. After the last transaction with you, Father, the Three Yang Sect should not have many left in the sect, and they have not yet agreed to sell," Li Chengyi said.

Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Such a large sect must have some in stock."

"That's what I think too." Li Chengyi smiled and then asked, "What are your plans next, Father? Will you continue your secluded cultivation in the mountains?"

Gu Yuanqing took a sip of tea, stood up and looked at the sea of ​​clouds below the mountain. After a long while, he said, "I plan to open the Qingping Grotto."

"Qingping Cave Heaven?" Li Chengyi also stood up.

Gu Yuanqing nodded and said, "That's right!"

Li Chengyi asked with slight excitement, "Father, are you preparing to go to the Spirit Realm?"

Gu Yuanqing said, "We must go to the Spirit Realm eventually. More than seventy years ago, Ji Shan of Xuantian Pavilion came to Qianyuan Island. I promised to go to the Spirit Realm one hundred and twenty years later."

Li Chengyi said, "That is more than forty years from now. I once heard my father mention that once Qingping Cave opens, it may bring about changes. I wonder how many people are coveting the inheritance of the Three Wonders Elder."

Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "That's precisely why we chose this time. Right now, the Ancient Divine Sect has sealed itself off, and the Demon Realm is at peace. It's a good time to free up our resources to deal with some matters in the cultivation world. Otherwise, if all the things piled up at once, we would inevitably be overwhelmed."

Li Chengyi asked, "Is there anything Father needs me to do?"

Gu Yuanqing said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to let you know in advance. You just need to handle the Linglong Realm matters well, and you should still focus on cultivation. Actually, the Linglong Realm is just a collection of resources now, and there's nothing worth paying too much attention to. As long as the Ancient Divine Sect doesn't appear, there won't be any trouble. You can leave it to Guan Rong and the others to handle."

Li Chengyi was both amused and exasperated: "Father, you don't need to keep bringing this up every other day. I know that."

Gu Yuanqing laughed and scolded, "You're actually complaining now. I'm actually thinking about who can nag me a little."

Li Chengyi laughed and said, "Father, just go and bring Mother back, and that will solve the problem."

Gu Yuanqing said irritably, "You should mind your own business."

Li Chengyi suddenly remembered something, and his smile froze.

Gu Yuanqing asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Chengyi hesitated for a moment and said, "Counting the days, it has been almost eighty years since I returned from Mother's place. According to what Mother said last time, she plans to break through to the Chaotic Heaven Realm within a hundred years. The Chaotic Heaven Tribulation has caused countless cultivators in the cultivation world to perish, so I can't help but be a little worried."

Gu Yuanqing frowned slightly.

"I know that Father and Mother have not seen each other for hundreds of years. Perhaps Father harbored some resentment when Mother left alone back then. I don't know what the true state of your relationship with Mother is."

At this point, Li Chengyi knelt down: "I didn't mean to bring this up, and I know that there is still a great enemy, the Ancient Divine Sect, at hand. I shouldn't cause trouble for my father, but no matter what, she is still my closest relative. My cultivation is still shallow, and even if I want to, I am powerless. Father has the ability to create cross-realm clones, and his strength is even above that of the Undying Chaos..."

Gu Yuanqing raised his hand and used a burst of energy to help Li Chengyi up: "Don't kneel down so easily. I know what you're talking about. You don't need to worry. Your mother is exceptionally talented, even more so than your father. She also has other opportunities. The Chaotic Tribulation shouldn't be a problem for her. Besides, she has the jade token you gave her. If anything happens, I can intervene in time."

Li Chengyi forced a smile: "It's just that I'm worried and confused."

Gu Yuanqing said, "Alright, let's leave it at that for today. You are now a cultivator who has undergone three tribulations of the Heavenly Transformation Realm. While we cultivators are not required to sever all emotions and desires, we should not let our emotions control us."

"Yes, I will remember!" Li Chengyi clasped his hands in a fist salute.

“Go!” Gu Yuanqing said.

Li Chengyi withdrew.

Gu Yuanqing watched his retreating figure and sighed softly. In truth, the person he owed the most was Li Chengyi.

When Li Chengyi was young, his father was not by his side. It was not until he was three years old that he learned that Li Chengyi was his son.

Li Miaoxuan left the Qian Yuan Realm before she was even a year old.

This means that neither of Li Chengyi's parents were by his side when he was young.

Although it wasn't entirely his fault, as a father he still felt he hadn't given his son a real childhood.

Even now, thinking back to when she first met him, he was only three years old, yet he already seemed so mature, she couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. "Three hundred years have passed; time really flies!"

Gu Yuanqing murmured softly, raising his head to look into the void.

……

early morning.

Qianyuan Island.

This place is completely different from before, with pavilions and towers everywhere, resembling a celestial sect.

The island is rich in spiritual energy and has a considerable population, including both cultivators and ordinary people.

Some were people brought back from Chiyuan Continent, while others were people settled from Qianyuan Realm.

A century has passed, and they have long since become accustomed to life on the island.

The mountain-carrying tortoise continues its leisurely journey, seemingly tireless.

Suddenly, it turned its head to look at the island on its back.

But it was Gu Yuanqing who came out from Beiquan Mountain.

Even with its strength, the Chaos Cultivator is no longer insignificant.

However, this Gu Yuanqing was still only an avatar. Perhaps it was a habit formed over many years, even though Qian Yuan Island could be considered his home. He had lived with the Mountain-Bearing Divine Turtle for hundreds of years, but Gu Yuanqing still felt it was safer to leave his true self in the mountains.

This ingrained caution sometimes even makes him feel both amused and exasperated.

Now, even though he can't rely on the Northern Spring Cave Heaven during the Ling Mountain Trial, he is already strong enough to suppress cultivators of Ji Shan's level.

His strength at the peak of the Chaotic Realm is completely different from when he first entered it.

In other words, in the cultivation world, relying on the Celestial World, Gu Yuanqing can actually be considered a cultivator at the peak level!
But it seems that deep down he feels that as long as he is not invincible, the world is not safe enough!
Gu Yuanqing nodded to the mountain-carrying divine tortoise.

The mountain-carrying tortoise's eyes, which had initially appeared somewhat dull and bewildered, gradually sharpened.

Especially when it saw the Demon-Subduing Sword above Gu Yuanqing's head, it stretched its neck and almost stuck its entire head up to his back.

The other cultivators on the island were startled by the sudden appearance of the shadow and the huge head that appeared in mid-air; some even almost activated their magical artifacts.

"Don't be impatient!" Gu Yuanqing said softly.

The sound carried across the island, and those who heard it were completely at ease.

"Do you... want to... open the cave heaven?" the Mountain-Bearing Divine Turtle said slowly, its voice booming like a bell.

Gu Yuanqing nodded slightly and smiled, "I'm ready to give it a try!"

The mountain-carrying divine tortoise nodded slightly, then suddenly stopped moving forward. Its previously leisurely demeanor changed slightly, and its four legs extended completely from its shell, like four pillars supporting the sky falling into the deep sea, standing firmly on the seabed.

"You...can give it a try!"

"Thank you, senior!" Gu Yuanqing clasped his hands in thanks.

He then glanced at the island, and with a wave of his hand, everyone on the island vanished without a trace, all being sent into the North Spring Cave Heaven.

The mountain-carrying tortoise looked slightly surprised; some of the spells were unbelievable even to it.

Of course, what it found most incredible was that it had this inexplicably appeared small world exit on its back.

It's fortunate that it has a big heart and is never curious about things it shouldn't be curious about; otherwise, anyone else would probably want to find out the truth.

Gu Yuanqing raised his hand, and the Demon-Subduing Sword flew into his palm.

After three hundred years of nurturing, this sword has long been connected to his blood and mind. Holding it in his hand is like extending his fingers, and he can easily feel everything within the sword.

This sword is the key to unlocking Qingping Cave Heaven. He has never opened it because he has a feeling that if he opens it, trouble will surely follow.

But what exactly this problem is remains unclear.

All he could think of was that the Heavenly Demon Sword Master might come knocking on his door, or that the other inheritors of the Three Absolute Elders might also be drawn by the aura.

However, at this point, he was basically fearless!

The reason he chose to open the cave at this time, besides what he had told Li Chengyi before, was another.

That was the opportunity he felt he had to break through to the Undying Realm, which might happen within this grotto-heaven!

According to Gu Yuanqing's understanding, Qingping Cave should be the true place of inheritance of the Three Wonders Elder, which can be guessed from the fact that it can only be opened by cultivating the Demon Subduing Sword Dao to a certain extent.

This sword fell into Gu Yuanqing's hands at the beginning of his cultivation, and now, the opportunity that has been hidden in his hands is finally about to be revealed.

He felt a sense of anticipation.

He took a deep breath to calm himself down.

Then, with a thought, the originally smooth and peaceful aura suddenly changed, and a sharp aura soared into the sky, breaking through the clouds.

A phantom of a sacred mountain appeared behind me, and then seemed to slowly change, the entire mountain peak turning into a sharp sword, everything in the mountain swaying, every blade of grass and every tree seemingly about to turn into a sword shadow.

Gu Yuanqing gently brushed his left hand across the Demon-Subduing Sword, then flicked it lightly.

Clang!
A sword cry suddenly rang out, and the Demon-Subduing Sword shone brightly!
Seven of the Daoist imprints, driven by Gu Yuanqing's sword Dao will, shone brightly, their mysterious auras intertwining, and the Big Dipper formation appearing and disappearing.

Gu Yuanqing fully activated his inner cultivation technique.

The Demon-Subduing Sword immediately flew out, transforming into a sword array that evolved in countless ways.

The sword intent of the Tian Shu Sword, the sword of Tian Xuan's insight, the sword of Tian Ji's power, the sword of Tian Quan's balance, the sword of Yu Heng's order, the sword of Kai Yang's orthodox and unorthodox, and the sword of Yao Guang's ultimate, all intertwine and ultimately transform into a sword domain.

The power of the sword domain descended downwards, eventually settling into the back of the Xuan Turtle.

In an instant, runes appeared on the turtle's back, and the entire Qian Yuan Island trembled slightly.

The mountain-carrying tortoise emitted a muffled sound, and its entire body sank downwards.

The towering waves spread outwards, and the giant rocks on the seabed seemed to crack layer by layer.

This divine tortoise, which had always been lazy and carried a giant island, suddenly seemed to be bearing immeasurable power.

However, Gu Yuanqing did not notice this. He opened his Void Insight and focused on the various runes floating on the back of the divine tortoise.

Amidst the intertwining runes, a gigantic, illusory gate slowly rose up, eventually appearing before him. It gradually solidified into a physical form and slowly opened amidst a muffled rumbling sound.

"Go! Now that this door is open, do not waste this opportunity!" The voice of the Mountain-Bearing Divine Turtle was still deep and slow, but it had become more fluent.

……

Spirit world.

In a secluded and remote valley.

Suddenly, the black-clad Heavenly Demon Sword Master sensed something. With a thought, the Heavenly Demon Sword hovered in front of him, trembling slightly and emitting a bluish-green light.

“Sword Master, this is…” A woman knelt on one knee on the ground.

The Heavenly Demon Sword Master stared intently at the Heavenly Demon Sword, chuckling to himself, "Finally activated? I've been waiting so long!"
