My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.
Chapter 82 The cultivation of immortals is nothing more than gathering and refining.
Chapter 82 The cultivation of immortals is nothing more than gathering and refining.
There's no single, universally accepted definition of what constitutes a celestial career. This is because everyone's celestial career is different. Just as the resources needed for cultivation vary from person to person.
Some cultivation resources were merely conceptual before they were collected.
For example, the celestial fortune required by the Dao Lord.
For example, Su Chengwu's three-day cultivation method. Those three days were less about cultivation and more about a collection process. It can also be understood as "gathering herbs" and "refining medicine."
This can be considered one of the great mysteries of the "Puppet Show Classic".
This immortal scripture, which can only be used by immortals, can be obtained by cultivators before they attain immortality and be able to apply it to themselves.
It can be described as unpredictable and mysterious.
However, not all elixirs can be obtained in a similar way.
After all, elixirs are different.
The corresponding methods of acquisition are naturally different!
For example, some medicinal herbs must be "planted" by oneself before they can be harvested.
Previously, Zhang San, as the master of a celestial palace, descended to the mortal realm for the sake of the Immortal Sword.
In fact, quite a few immortals also descended to the mortal realm at that time. However, apart from a few who were plotting against Zhang San, most of these immortals were not after the immortal sword.
And they all came and left immediately.
These immortals descended to earth to "cultivate medicinal herbs."
The seeds for the medicine have already been planted.
Three hundred years from now, during the great mythological era, it will be time to gather herbs. However, at that time, immortals will be unable to descend to the mortal realm, so specific herb gatherers will still be needed.
As for the period after the Great Mythical Era, that was not a time for unified herb gathering.
Because some of the medicines had already been collected, but they needed to be refined using this mythical world.
Moreover, it's not just the Great Mythical Era and the time after that for alchemy; the current surge of turbidity in the mortal realm is also a viable option.
Some of the elixirs have already been prepared.
When the mythical era arrives, what will be needed for this type of elixir that has already begun to be refined is not a specific person to collect the elixir, but rather a person to collect the elixir.
This process of "planting herbs," "gathering herbs," and "refining herbs" is precisely the cultivation of immortals!
Otherwise, the celestial beings in heaven wouldn't have needed to hold so many banquets to invite the earthly immortals of the Yao Heaven to attend.
Otherwise, the saying "paying homage to the door" would not exist.
Ultimately, it's all about immortals cultivating themselves!
……
This is heaven.
In that celestial palace, which mortals could never see, many immortals were arriving one after another.
Suddenly, the sea of clouds on the horizon split in two, and a white-clad immortal, resembling a handsome young man, appeared, stepping on cloud patterns and waving a folding fan.
As the light of day fell, the darkness suddenly turned to light again, and then an old man-like immortal appeared, walking slowly. With each step he took, large golden ripples bloomed on the ground.
A dragon's roar resounded, causing the clouds and mist to tremble. Then, a tall, slender figure arrived, enveloped in lightning.
Suddenly, the void shattered, forming a gap through which flames surged, and then a figure slowly emerged...
These are all celestial beings from heaven.
The place these immortals went to was the "Jade Heaven Palace" among the ten palaces of Heaven.
This is the head of the Ten Palaces, and also the residence of the Heavenly Pure Primordial Immortal Emperor.
This celestial emperor is also known as the Jade Emperor of the Primordial Beginning of Heaven.
Because one character was changed later.
Therefore, this Celestial Emperor has always had two titles. Those without discernment refer to him by the first title, namely, the Celestial Emperor of Heavenly Purity.
If one has good judgment, then one should naturally address the second person.
For example, these immortals who have arrived at this moment.
"We pay our respects to the Jade Emperor of the Primordial Beginning of Heaven!" the immortals said in unison, bowing deeply in homage.
The attitude was very respectful.
After all, they came to ask for a favor.
Not long ago, "Fire Qilin Immortal" told them that his master's arrangements in Yaotian mortal realm had gone wrong.
Even the people of the Chanxin Buddhist sect brought a portion of the "Puppet Show Sutra" with them, which led to the creation of a great demon in the human world of Yaotian!
A great demon among men, the true demonic path.
These four words are extremely intimidating!
Of course, this deterrent effect only applies to cultivators who have not yet attained immortality.
The appearance of this great demon Su Chengwu has only one meaning for the immortals in the heavens: it means that the Dao Lord has given them leverage over him.
Originally, even if Daojun's actions affected their cultivation, they wouldn't have said anything.
But now that this has happened, everything is different.
You must understand that in this heaven, the Dao Lord is not the only supreme being.
As the immortals gathered outside the Jade Heaven Palace and paid their respects in unison, a little girl with pigtails quickly emerged from inside the palace.
The little girl was very lively and clever; she looked at the group of immortals with great curiosity.
Because it's rare to see so many immortals in this place.
However, she quickly remembered her purpose, so she cleared her throat and said, "The master has said that he knows the purpose of the immortals' visit. Since demons are not allowed in the mortal realm, he has ordered the immortal messengers to descend to the mortal realm to patrol and capture the human demon Su Chengwu within a day and bring him to Tianshu Mountain to await the Dao Lord's judgment!"
Upon hearing this, the immortals who had come all frowned, and then one of them couldn't help but ask, "Little fairy, is it just to capture that demon Su Chengwu?"
Although they did intend to use the human demon Su Chengwu as an excuse, in reality, they didn't care about this so-called great human demon at all.
All they care about is their elixir!
Whether someone is a demon or not, whether someone is Su Chengwu or not, it doesn't matter to them.
"Daojun was merely defeated, not passed away." Upon hearing this, the little girl, whom the immortal called "Little Fairy Spirit," simply said this.
This statement is very direct, without any concealment. Which of the immortals present could not understand it?
For a moment, these immortals couldn't help but show some surprise.
This statement also reveals another meaning: the Dao Lord's injuries were far more serious than they had imagined!
They didn't dare to have this idea because they thought Daojun was about to die. It was just that Daojun usually wouldn't pursue such matters with them, so they took the opportunity to find a suitable reason to get Daojun to end the blockade of Yaotian in the human world ahead of schedule.
If the blockade isn't lifted, how will they bring their herb gatherers and the nearly finished elixir to heaven? Unexpectedly, a little fairy under the Jade Emperor of the Primordial Beginning brought back this answer.
As a result, the thoughts of immortals began to stir.
Because Daojun was severely injured, his recovery time will inevitably be very long. It is even highly likely that Daojun will fall into a deep sleep after releasing that shackle.
If that's the case, and there are too many variables in the lower realm, does that mean that the Jade Emperor of the Primordial Beginning of Heaven can officially take over the authority of Lord Dao?
For a moment, all the immortals present were filled with joy.
They had all grasped the true meaning behind the Immortal Emperor's words about passing on his skills to the lesser immortal spirits.
"Then what should we do?"
"What's so difficult about that? Celestial envoys are ultimately no match for us, and are even inferior to most herb gatherers. And right now, the Dao Lord's shackles are still in place. Once a celestial envoy goes down, their cultivation will definitely be greatly limited. We just need to let that sword cultivator who mends the gaps in the mortal realm take action, isn't that enough?"
"That swordsman from Tujian Mountain named Bai Chijing? This method may be feasible, but it's uncertain whether this swordsman would be willing to do anything for us..."
"Unwilling? We've already approached him, do we have any choice? Besides, he cultivates twelve kinds of extremely fierce sword techniques, which means he's destined to never achieve immortality. This is a rare opportunity to form a good relationship with us celestial beings!"
"No, no, we have to make sure he does things for us willingly! Besides, we are all immortals. If we use this to force a mortal cultivator, you might not be ashamed, but I am!"
“That makes perfect sense. We are immortals! Immortals should have the dignity of immortals!”
“Then tell him about the problems with the twelve great evil sword techniques, and then teach him the methods to cultivate into an immortal in the mortal realm…” As soon as he finished speaking, the immortal who offered this solution noticed that all the immortals around him were looking at him. This made him somewhat uncomfortable, so he hesitated and said, “Fellow Daoists, what is this…”
"Excellent! Very good! This is an excellent idea! Well then, this matter will be entrusted to you! Immortal Kunpeng, you are truly resourceful and wise!"
As soon as these words were spoken, every single immortal present began to praise them.
This unusual behavior naturally made the "Kunpeng Immortal" realize what was going on.
Too!
How could he have forgotten about this killer?
Immediately, Kunpeng Immortal was about to speak up and decline. Although his speed was unparalleled and he was the fastest under the Winged Constellation Heavenly Division, his status as the fastest under the Winged Constellation Heavenly Division was because dozens of immortals who were faster than him had died at the hands of Tai'a in the mythical era six thousand years ago.
Kunpeng Immortal is very self-aware.
However, the other immortals wouldn't allow him to have this self-awareness. After all, they had finally found a fool who truly spoke his mind, and they weren't about to let him off so easily.
"That's settled then! I'm sure Immortal Kunpeng will be able to handle this matter well! By the way, my batch of Flying Wing Northern Profound Heaven Golden Pills is almost finished. I'm preparing to hold another Golden Pill Banquet. Immortal Kunpeng, don't forget to come to the banquet then."
"Oh, my immortal peach tree that has been growing for ten thousand years is almost ripe. When that time comes, Kunpeng Immortal, don't forget to come to my immortal banquet."
"I've been busy lately and won't be able to attend the next Immortal Sword Dao Discussion Conference. I'd appreciate it if Immortal Kunpeng could go in my place."
"..."
One by one, the immortals spoke, which made it impossible for the Kunpeng Immortal General to open his mouth again.
After all, these benefits are too great.
That batch of Flying Wing Northern Profound Heavenly Golden Elixir, even if it didn't perfectly match his Winged Constellation cultivation, would still add a considerable amount of immortal merit to his life after consumption.
And that immortal peach tree that never ages is even more extraordinary.
After attaining immortality, one's lifespan is incredibly long, almost as long as heaven and earth. However, the prerequisite for this endless lifespan is that one can resist the pull of death.
Upon death, one belongs to the immortals, and once one is drawn into that realm, it is the time for the immortal to pass away peacefully.
This pull from the dead occurs every four hundred years in a small pull and every nine hundred years in a large pull.
Therefore, this is also called the Forty-Nine Calamity.
A single fruit from this immortal peach tree, which grants eternal youth, can, upon consumption, save an immortal from the torment of being bound to death for ten thousand years.
As for the Immortal Sword Dao Discussion Conference, the benefits are still found in the Immortal Peach Tree that grants eternal youth and the furnace of Flying Wing Northern Profound Heaven Golden Elixir.
Because it can sever the karmic ties and karma of immortals!
It should be known that the karma of immortals is even more insidious than the karmic pull of death! The reason why so many immortals died in the mythical era six thousand years ago was because they suffered from the karma of immortals.
These three benefits alone were enough to make Kunpeng Immortal unable to refuse, not to mention the others...
So, Kunpeng Immortal, who had been promised a host of benefits, left with red eyes.
This isn't envy.
Rather, it was greed that clouded their judgment and overwhelmed their reason.
However, an immortal is an immortal. As the fastest among the current Winged Constellation Celestials, he naturally has the favor of some Celestials. Moreover, he has used this to refine a treasure with constant power.
Heaven and earth are impermanent, but laws are constant.
These constant treasures can stabilize the impermanence of heaven and earth, and in many situations, give oneself a glimmer of hope.
So Kunpeng Immortal quickly regained consciousness.
However, despite being clear-headed, Kunpeng Immortal felt that it would have been better if he hadn't been sober at all, because that way, if Tai'a discovered him, there might still be a sliver of hope that his immortal soul wouldn't be annihilated by a single sword strike.
"This is... utterly outrageous!"
Kunpeng Immortal cursed.
He was usually extremely well-mannered, but at this moment he truly couldn't resist. Knowing his background was ordinary, they tempted him with these things, completely taking advantage of his inability to resist such temptations!
But to have reached this point with such ordinary beginnings, Kunpeng Immortal must possess some extraordinary wisdom.
“To put it bluntly, that’s definitely not going to work. But what if this sword cultivator Bai Chijing discovers it himself? Then no matter what, it won’t be my fault. If Tai’a really wants to kill me for this, then with the Great Mythical Era approaching, he can forget about ever having the chance to fulfill his responsibilities!” Kunpeng Immortal shook his wings, his whole spirit lifted.
Because the Celestial Master of the Orion constellation loves this kind of arrogant person the most, Daojun was hit by it back then, but he has been honest ever since.
After considering it, Kunpeng Immortal did not hesitate. He plucked a feather from his body and used his extreme speed to send it to the mortal realm.
……
Bai Chijing unleashed six extremely malevolent sword techniques with a single strike, killing the young Daoist boy and completing his second external tribulation before departing. Although the tribulation energy still guided him within the minor Daoist sect, it was no longer suitable for him to act.
"Where did my senior brother Su Chengwu borrow such extraordinary cultivation from?" Bai Chijing was pondering this matter.
It's just too unbelievable.
Just as he was thinking this, a cold glint suddenly appeared.
Then, a feather as black as ink appeared before Bai Chijing's eyes. As his gaze fell upon it, the feather generated a power that resonated with his inspiration.
As a result, Bai Chijing immediately knew the origin of the feather.
"Can a single shed feather of the Kunpeng Immortal be used to borrow the winds of heaven and earth to know the affairs of the world?"
