Evergreen Immortal.

Chapter 758 True Martial
“Brother Li, this is truly a great era. Kong Zheng has already reached the level of Dao Lord in our Divine Deer Academy. In addition, Uncle Cheng has also gone very far in the True Lord realm.”

"Speaking of which, those companies are all pretty good too."

"They are all top-notch talents."

Teng Bochuan spoke eloquently.

If the scholars of Hongwen Pavilion wanted a life of leisure, that would be true leisure. Being in the imperial palace, they had access to far more information than ordinary cultivators.

Li Rui has been at Hongwen Academy for several years.

The people here gradually became familiar with this mature-beyond-his-years man from Taihua Prefecture.

Because of his good temper, Li Rui was quite popular in Hongwen Pavilion.

of course.

Li Rui knew that too.

What truly makes him popular is not his good temper.

It's not about identity.

He was a Daoist disciple of Baiyujing, which meant he was destined to never advance further in the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty.

In the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty, one's birth is extremely important.

They would naturally be happy to befriend someone who poses no competition to them, has already reached the ninth floor, and is highly likely to become a True Lord in the future.

Because he was introduced by Master Zhu.

Teng Bochuan and the scholars from Shenlu Academy in Hongwen Pavilion actively regarded Li Rui as one of their own.

He often discussed metaphysics and philosophy with Li Rui.

It is very beneficial for broadening one's horizons.

“Brother Li, you really should go to Shenlu Academy. With me leading the way, no one will stop you. You will definitely like the temperament of the senior brothers and sisters there.”

Teng Bochuan extended a warm invitation.

After several years of getting along, his relationship with Li Rui at Hongwen Hall was recognized as the best.

Initially, Teng Bochuan was merely making friends with people for personal gain.

However, as time went on, he discovered that Li Rui's talent was truly astonishing.

these past three years.

He repaired three martial arts techniques in total, more than all of the previous hundred years combined.

It was Li Rui's words that awakened him.

The people he admired most in his life were learned people, so his relationship with Li Rui naturally grew better and better.

Li Rui: "Next time."

Teng Bochuan curled his lip.

He knew that Li Rui had no intention of going, because he had heard this countless times, so he didn't insist.

Shenlu Academy is a sacred place that cultivators of the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty dream of.

Li Rui was naturally interested as well.

But he has too many secrets about him, and the closer you get, the more likely you are to discover them.

Although he had the Celestial Court and Ancestor Zhuge to cover up the cause and effect, he couldn't figure out the methods of those old scholars in the academy. If his secrets were discovered, things would be very bad.

As the Confucian school says, a wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall; it is best to keep a respectful distance from such a place.

Teng Bochuan suddenly remembered something interesting: "Brother Li, have you heard that there is a newly initiated disciple of the Jie Dao Sect who was enlightened by a Dao Lord and only after breaking the secret of his birth did he realize that he was actually that Dao Lord's master in his early years. He was taken in as a single disciple and is now ranked very high in the Earthly Register, one of the highest-ranking people in the Jie Dao Sect."

Li Rui's heart stirred slightly.

In this Hongwen Pavilion, every conversation involves the four supreme immortal sects.

Their perspective alone is vastly different from that of Taihua Continent.

This was also one of the main reasons why Zhuge Liang summoned him to Zhongzhou.

He practiced diligently behind closed doors, but he couldn't cultivate into a Daoist master.

In fact.

Almost all Dao Lords have traveled to the Central Plains.

Li Rui was no exception to the common practice.

As for the Jiedao Sect mentioned by Teng Bochuan, it is one of the sects in the "one sect, one religion, one dynasty, one grotto heaven" category.

The Daoist sect of Jie might be unfamiliar to cultivators in Taihua Prefecture.

But if we say it's the main sect of the Myriad Laws Hall, then you'll understand.

Unlike the other three factions, this Jiedao sect advocates education for all and has a very wide distribution, with its presence felt in all fourteen states.

The Wanfa Hall in Taihua Continent is the largest branch.

Li Rui only realized this after he became distracted.

The reason why the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws has so many Dao Lords is that it has invited outside help.

This foreign aid came from the Zhongzhou Jiedao Sect.

The current situation in Taihua Continent appears to have arisen from the fall of the Dao Lord of the Divine Profound Sect, but in reality, it is all part of the Intercepting Dao Sect's scheme. They just haven't reached that level yet, so they don't know the full extent of it. Li Rui chatted with Teng Bochuan for a while, and then resumed his cultivation.

He is really busy.

In addition to studying the Primordial Chaos Diagram and traveling through the Mysterious God Realm to find the divine essence of the Great Dao, one must also research the Celestial Court.

There's really not much free time.

Fortunately, there wasn't much to do at the Hongwen Academy.

It's a good place for quiet contemplation.

Look inward at yourself.

Compared to the other Dao seed within the Purple Mansion, the life force of that seed was somewhat faint.

【True Martial Arrival】

If Li Rui could only choose one of the three immortal seeds, he would choose the [Eternal Camellia] without hesitation.

Just like the Daoist Lord of Longevity, whose combat power can be enhanced by external forces, once his lifespan is gone, it's gone.

But now that he has the Hunyuan Wandao Method, he is taking the path of multiple proofs.

Then the choice will be different.

【Zhenwu Lin】is in line with his idea of ​​proving the Dao through force.

It follows the path of killing and warfare, which maximizes the boost to combat power.

Since we have a choice, of course we should prioritize survival first, and then try to live longer.

"No wonder it's so slow; it needs both nurturing the seed of Dao and creating a grotto-heaven."

Li Rui smiled and shook his head.

Having learned from Wuzhong Daojun's cultivation experience, I realized that when the Dao Seed is formed, the Hunyuan Wandao Method must also be mastered to the first level, thus opening up a grotto-heaven.

The Great Way has a spirit.

If they are not separated by a grotto-heaven, they will clash.

By then, it will be too late to make amends.

Put away your thoughts.

Li Rui then immersed himself in cultivation again.

Cultivation takes no time.

In the blink of an eye.

Li Rui has been a scholar of the Hongwen Pavilion in the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty for ten years.

this time.

He repaired two books of supernatural powers.

The contribution was neither high nor low.

In addition, Li Rui lived a secluded life, spending most of the past ten years in seclusion.

Those old monsters from the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty who had always been secretly wary of Li Rui gradually came to believe that this man from Taihua Prefecture had truly come to seek refuge.

This day.

Li Rui and Teng Bochuan were chatting in the Hongwen Pavilion.

Suddenly—

A chorus of compliments rose from not far away.

Turned his head.

Then they saw a middle-aged man with an air of nobility, dressed in a crimson and gold python robe, walking towards them, accompanied by a rather handsome young man.

"King Tianxuan!"

Only after the two had gone far away did Teng Bochuan speak in a low voice.

The Celestial Dynasty is different from the mortal dynasty.

The next emperor will definitely come from the royal family, but he/she will not necessarily be the emperor's son/daughter.

According to ancestral custom.

Every member of the Divine Void Royal Family is qualified to become the Human Emperor, provided they become a Dao Lord.

Among the royal family members, the seven most outstanding will be enfeoffed as kings, named after the Big Dipper.

This Tianxuan King was the second-ranking member of the royal family in the Divine Void Immortal Dynasty.

That's quite remarkable.

It was not surprising that the Prince of Tianxuan came here, as the Hongwen Academy had the responsibility of educating the royal children.

But Teng Bochuan's gaze became increasingly strange:
"Brother Li, do you remember the person from the Jiedao Sect that I told you about before?"

Li Rui nodded: "I remember."

"it's him."
