Invincible!

Chapter 195 The Spirit of the Void
The Dark Sea Eye.

The roar echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

The Xuanming Frost Qi, condensed from the three-headed, seven-realm three-headed dragon, pierced through the void and accurately struck Li Xian's body in the void.

The next moment, Li Xian's body was impacted by the Xuanming Cold Fiend power and flew into the sky.

Then, seemingly repelled once again, they fled far away.

Only after Li Xian had completely disappeared did these three-headed dragons, with a hiss and a hint of weariness, dive back into the Xuanming Sea Eye.

……

On a small island hundreds of miles away.

Li Xian continuously refined the Xuanming Cold Fiend by using his Floating Dawn True Body and Great Devouring Technique.

"As expected of the Cold Fiend refined by the Seven Realms Beasts, its purity surpasses even that of the Xuanming Jade, a rare and precious material."

Li Xian sincerely praised it.

The energy within the Xuanming Jade was ultimately too sluggish.

The pain and pleasure of the Xuanming Hansha were still the best.

"A gentle breeze is refreshing and pleasant, but if a hurricane is howling, that is a terrible natural disaster. You think that the Cold Fiend is purer and better than rare treasures because you have the Floating Dawn True Body and the Great Devouring Technique, and you have the Undying Dao Body to withstand the Fiend Qi. If it were anyone else, they would have been frozen to death by the Cold Fiend long ago."

Lingxu seems to really enjoy arguing.

As soon as Li Xian opens his mouth, regardless of whether he is right or wrong, it seems that it will always pop up to argue.

"But this is nothing. In ancient times, your current stage of cultivation was called refining Qi into spirit. Many people read books, learn skills, travel thousands of miles, and appreciate the beauty of the sun, moon, mountains, rivers, and the universe. Then, they suddenly attain enlightenment, directly awakening their Yin spirit, generating divine consciousness, and then using their divine consciousness to refine Yin and Yang Qi until Yin and Yang converge and forge an immortal golden elixir. Where are you now?"

"Directly cultivate divine sense?"

Li Xian was taken aback: "Really?"

Divine consciousness is the power of the Refining Spirit realm.

"What's so special about that? There are even more geniuses who directly merge with the Dao and ascend to immortality."

Lingxu boasted about his limited knowledge to establish his status as a "master": "You have special talent. I think you don't need to waste too much time and energy on honing your spells. Just focus on sword intent and cultivate it to perfection."

"Sword intent perfected..."

Even gods and ghosts will be terrified!

Slay the Yin Gods and vanquish the Ghost Immortals!

"You mean, like cultivating spiritual awareness? Piling up sword intent to perfection, and then using that perfected sword intent to stimulate the Upper Yuan Cave Heaven, causing spiritual awareness to transform into divine awareness?"

"Yes, geniuses have their own cultivation methods. Following the proper steps is something only mediocre people need to consider."

Lingxu said, "Actually, once your sword intent reaches a high level and you have the conditions to stimulate the Shangyuan Cave Heaven to generate divine consciousness, I will give you an ancient secret method to refine qi into spirit, burn essence and magic power to nourish the spirit. As long as you have enough talent, it will be no difficult thing to cultivate divine consciousness. With divine consciousness, whether you draw on the true fire of the sun or refine the immortal golden pill by combining yin and yang, you will achieve twice the result with half the effort."

After saying that, it added, "At the very least, you can go to the place I told you about and try to stimulate your Void Body. It's much better than struggling to practice Netherworld Frost here. It's such a waste of your talent."

Li Xian sensed that the spiritual fluctuations in the Spirit Ruins were much stronger than before, and seemed to realize something.

"It seems that after you restored yourself to the sixth realm, you remembered a lot of things."

"Uh……"

The spiritual fluctuations in the spirit realm paused for a moment before it said, "I have thought of some things, but ultimately it's just repair, not gaining other parts. I don't remember much, but the main thing is your talent..."

As it spoke, it became somewhat gesticulating again: "I've already acknowledged that you have the qualifications to chase after my master's shadow, which is the highest affirmation of your talent. If you continue to waste your time like this, it's a disservice to my praise of you. Geniuses have their own paths, a principle that even the Xuanling of the Great Luo Immortal Sect understands. How could I, Lingxu, not understand it?"

The arrogant tone made it seem as if it were even more superior than Xuanling.

In fact, Mr. Li also had his own plans.

Slay the three-headed dragons and sell their corpses at the sect.

If we can kill all these three-headed dragons and keep their corpses intact, selling them for four or five billion wouldn't be a problem.

Then he will be able to customize a seventh-realm magic weapon that amplifies sword intent, pushing his sword intent to its peak.

only……

The three-headed dragon's enthusiasm was beyond his expectations.

The Netherworld Cold Fiend was being used on him without restraint, and with the addition of two portions of White Emperor Refined Gold already refined, his progress in the fifth level of the Floating Dawn True Body had advanced by 40%.

"I will follow my own cultivation plan. In a few months, I will gather enough demonic energy to kill these three-headed dragons, and then use their corpses to exchange for a seventh-realm magic weapon."

Li Xiandao.

"Seven Realms Magic Treasures, is that your plan?"

"It can only be described as a process of achieving the goal."

"Goals? What are your goals?"

Lingxu was somewhat surprised.

"Of course there are, and there are two short-term goals."

Li Xiandao said, "The first step is to spend three years on the Golden Core stage and five years on the Spirit Refinement stage. The remaining time is for ten years later... to prepare for the duel with Yi Yuanshi Yi Daozi nine years later!"

A hint of longing lingered in his eyes: "I've learned about this Yi Daozi during this time. Although he's only at the Refining Spirit stage, his talent and skills are so strong that he truly deserves the title of unparalleled genius! Only by being able to clash with such a powerful figure in the Refining Spirit stage can I truly say that my arduous cultivation to enter the ninth realm of Dao has not been in vain!"

"Yi Yuanshi..."

Lingxu also learned a little about Yi Yuanshi's information and said, "He has only cultivated for a hundred years longer than you. If you were put on the same level and started over, he would definitely be no match for you."

Then, seemingly surprised, it asked, "Yi Yuanshi is your first target, so what about your second target?"

"Shen Zangxing".

Li said calmly.

"That nobody!?"

Lingxu was taken aback at first, then became somewhat angry: "Why is he qualified to be compared to you?! You are a genius who can catch up with my master's shadow. If it weren't for his Solar Dao Body, it would be a question whether he could break through to the True Fire Realm now. You have almost caught up with his cultivation level in less than two years. Is he still worth being a target for you?"

“I have received help from many people along the way, and I have compensated them all. Now, the only one left is Nangong Feixu. I promised to help him deal with Shen Zangxing, but I haven’t done so yet.”

Li Xian said, "Shen Zangxing is hiding in the Daluo Immortal Sect, but the sect rules forbid true disciples from killing each other. Unless I can transcend the rules, I cannot kill Shen Zangxing under Xuanling's nose! And if I want to transcend the rules... I must undergo tribulation and ascend to immortality!"

He paused for a moment: "So, this is my second goal."

"..."

Lingxu found Li Xian's words to be very logical.

But this circle is going too far.

The spiritual energy within Lingxu surged, as if it wanted to say something, but in the end…

They still didn't say anything.

"Five years to refine the spirit... then let's start with three years to reach the Golden Core stage and five years to refine the spirit."

“However, what you said makes some sense. Let’s go and see the place you mentioned that can activate the Void Dao Body.”

"Uh?"

Lingxu was taken aback: "Why suddenly..."

"It was just a passing fancy, there weren't many reasons why."

Li Xian smiled and said something.

Yi Yuanshi was his first target.

Becoming an immortal was his second goal.

And the third goal...

It stands at the very pinnacle of the True Immortal World!

Standing at the end of the path of spiritual practice!
This goal was stated by a cultivator at the fifth level of the True Essence Realm...

Meaningless.

Therefore, he doesn't need to speak, he only needs to do.

However, the Floating Dawn True Body cannot achieve this goal and stand at the pinnacle of the True Immortal World.

but……

The Void Dao Body is acceptable!

Therefore, it is obvious which of the two is more important.

"Okay, I've sent you the location. Just go there."

Lingxu immediately said.

Li Xian responded and then leaped into the air, flying straight towards the horizon.

Should we inform the people of Xuanming Island?
Xuanming Island was his fiefdom, not his domain.

His spiritual practice transcends everything.

Moreover, the world has its own operating mechanism and will never stop operating just because someone is missing.

The same applies to Xuanming Island.

Li Xian ascended into the sky, soaring into the depths of the vast sea of ​​clouds.

but……

The world of True Immortals is ultimately different from that of Earth.

The upper part of the troposphere is not the stratosphere, but the three-thousand-mile-long gale layer.

Above the Gale Layer lies the Three Thousand Mile Flame and Thunder Layer.

Beyond the Flame and Thunder Layer lies another three thousand miles of Void Turbulence Layer.

Only after crossing the turbulent void layer can one truly break out of the Great World of True Immortals and arrive at the Endless Void Zone.

The endless void contains no primordial energy of heaven and earth, no yin and yang, and no five elements. Cultivators flying within it cannot obtain any replenishment of primordial energy, and eventually they will exhaust their magical power and die.

Therefore, that was a forbidden zone for cultivators.

Right now, Li Xian has broken through the air for hundreds of miles, riding the wind and merging into the mysteries of the void, traversing at high speed.

As he traversed through the void, he also fully experienced its mysteries.

The details of the Great Void Technique kept flashing through his mind.

Unfortunately, the path of the void is inherently elusive and unpredictable. He has no innate divine beasts or rare treasures to rely on, so it is clear that he is not capable of comprehending the Great Void Technique solely through his own understanding.

Although he failed to comprehend the mysteries of the void, as he continued to ponder the power of the void and became more proficient in sword control, his sword speed and sword distance were constantly improving.

Despite flying at full speed, which forced him to spend some time each day replenishing his mana, but...

Day 1, traversing 660,000 li!
The next day, the distance traveled was 720,000 li!
By the third day, it had soared to 810,000 miles!

This exhilarating speed, traversing countless mountains and rivers, allowed Li Xian to fully experience what it means to travel the vast ocean in the morning and the Cangwu Mountains in the evening—a truly otherworldly experience!

This speed...

Even the body of a wandering immortal is nothing more than this.

As for the fourth day...

We've arrived at the Celestial Dynasty of Yu the Great!
In the Eastern Continent and the Endless Sea area, there are three major immortal sects: the Great Luo Immortal Sect, the Radiant Sun Immortal Sect, and the Limitless Star Palace, as well as two major immortal dynasties: the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty and the Boundless Immortal Dynasty.

In addition, it is also the main base where the Heavenly Fiend Demon Sect and the Formless Demon Sect are active.

Among them, the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty may not be the strongest among the four immortal dynasties, but since it dares to call itself an immortal dynasty, it naturally has scattered immortals in charge.

Although the birth of True Immortals is not permitted under the control of the Great Luo Immortal Sect and the Radiant Sun Immortal Sect, and the number of Loose Immortals is extremely limited, but...

There are quite a few who practice the Golden Elixir and the Refining of the Spirit.

The nine realms and eighty-one domains, each domain lord is an ancient giant who has cultivated the Golden Core.

Further down, it also governed countless prefectures and counties, large and small.

Each prefecture and county also had many prominent families and powerful clans, forming a tight network of rule.

According to the map provided by Lingxu...

Tianqi Valley is located north of Suolong County, one of the thirty-six counties of Yunzhou. The entire Yunzhou has a population of hundreds of millions, with dozens of prominent families, large and small, possessing powerful cultivators at the fifth or sixth level, as well as wealthy clans with high-level cultivators at the third or fourth level, dividing the interests of the prefecture and the numerous counties under its jurisdiction.

Everyone has to act according to his wishes.

Soon, a desolate Gobi desert came into Li Xian's view.

This Gobi Desert region stretches for over six thousand miles and is sparsely populated.

In the very center of the Gobi Desert, there is a massive rift valley that stretches for nearly a thousand miles.

Li Xian descended from the sky on his sword. Looking down, the entire rift valley appeared as if it had been cleaved by a powerful being with immense strength, leaving a shocking sword mark.

but……

"Even a powerful being in the celestial realm couldn't possibly split the earth a thousand miles apart using their own magical powers."

Li Xianxin was deeply moved.

“A rogue immortal who has refined his spirit and returned to emptiness cannot do it, but a true immortal who has refined emptiness and merged with the Dao can. The methods they possess are far beyond your imagination.”

Lingxu said with some pride, "This rift valley is an array left by my master when he was trying to comprehend the spirit of the void, using this natural terrain."

"Spirit of the Void?"

Li Xian quickly realized what was going on: "This is the gift you were talking about."

"good."

Lingxu responded, "The Spirits of the Void reside in the deep void, like a gift, or a spark of inspiration. They only appear when a person's understanding of the void shifts from one dimension to another, causing disturbances. If you can comprehend them, you can surely advance your Void Dao Body to a higher level..."

It paused for a moment, then said, "In fact, with your talent, if you could truly capture and comprehend the spirit of the void, and use its mysteries to comprehend the Great Void Technique, it wouldn't be a pipe dream!"

"Great Void Technique?"

Li Xian was somewhat surprised.

The resources required for cultivating each fundamental Daoist art are extremely precious.

There are even cases where there is a price but no market for them.

If the Spirit of the Void can truly help him master the Great Void Technique, then the value of this gift would be immeasurable.

"Your era is long past, isn't it? How can you still summon Void Spirits?"

"Long? Perhaps it has been a very long time, maybe hundreds of thousands, millions, or even millions of years. But, the spirit of the void is, in a sense, just a kind of mystical phenomenon, like the omnipresent magnetic force in the world. As long as the world exists, it will always be there. The difference is whether you can activate it..."

The spiritual fluctuations of Lingxu became increasingly emotional: "Hundreds of thousands or millions of years is enough for living beings to experience life and death again and again. Even scattered immortals have perished one after another. But for the vast and boundless heaven and earth, all things, and the universe, this passage of time cannot have any impact at all."

"Strange phenomena..."

"I just don't know if this formation can still be used after all this time..."

As Lingxu spoke, she deliberately detached herself from Li Xian and headed towards the deepest part of the rift: "I can't remember many things... but I have a very deep impression of this place, though I don't understand exactly what that impression is... I only know that a very crucial part of my body seems to have been formed from some material here..."

Its spiritual energy was dissipating, clearly indicating that it was caught up in some kind of feeling.

Along the way, it tried to reach every place, even every rock, as if it wanted to awaken something with these scenes that it was theoretically very familiar with.

And Mr. Li...

They didn't disturb it, but simply followed it into the deepest part of the rift valley.

However, this state only lasted for a few hundred miles before it was broken.

At the edge of the sky, several sword lights pierced through the air.

It turned out to be a cultivator at the Fifth Qi Realm and two cultivators at the Magic Power Realm.

Li Xian glanced at it, but used his true essence to conceal the insignia of a true disciple on his body.

However, although the disciple's insignia was covered, the true essence power still slowed down the three originally aggressive streaks of light.

A moment later, the third-realm cultivator who was leading the group stepped forward and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Li Xian: "This area belongs to my Lü family's mines. I am Lü Jing, an elder of the Lü family. May I ask which senior has graced us with their presence and what brings you here?"

"Having traveled here, I was moved and decided to cultivate myself in this area for a while."

Li Xian said bluntly, "Is this your Lü family's land? I can pay you in cash as a lease."

travel?

Secluded cultivation?

Lü Jing and the other two exchanged a glance.

What's so interesting about traveling through this desolate Gobi Desert?
Is it possible...

What did he discover in this mining area?
Although he had some doubts, Lü Jing dared not be negligent in the face of a powerful cultivator at the Taiyin True Essence Realm: "We cannot decide this matter; we must report to the patriarch and ask him to make the decision."

Seeing this, Li Xian nodded and said nothing more.

He simply dislikes taking things by trickery or force.

Otherwise, even a prominent family from the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, at most at the sixth level, wouldn't dare utter a single word of objection if he forcibly seized this rift valley.

At that moment, he followed Lingxu and continued to traverse this rift valley.

Of course, in order to conceal the true nature of the Spirit Void Treasure, he applied some true essence to it, making it appear as if he was controlling the magic weapon.

This scene……

This made Lü Jing even more suspicious that Li Xian was looking for something.

While having a cultivator at the Magic Power Realm quickly report to his family, he followed Li Xian from a distance, ostensibly to keep him company, but in reality to monitor him.

Soon, Lingxu had already circled the great rift valley known as Tianqi Valley.

"The formation should still be there, and it has not lost its mystique due to the passage of time."

A sense of relief and spiritual energy emanated from it.

"When my master set up this formation, he took advantage of the terrain and made perfect use of the area's geographical advantages, creating this formation with ease... I don't know its specific wonders, but... I can activate it!"

"you can?"

"Yes, it wasn't possible before, but it is now."

Lingxu said, "That's why I said I would bring you here after you helped me complete the upgrade."

"Then try it."

Li Xiandao.

He was very curious to know what kind of extraordinary methods the master of Lingxu, whom it repeatedly boasted was unparalleled on earth and in heaven, had left behind.

"it is good."

Lingxu responded and quickly took to the air.

Powerful spiritual and magical fluctuations emanated from it.

As the magical energy emanating from it spread, an invisible ripple gradually spread outwards.

The ripples continued to spread, encircling each other, as if calling out to something.

Once, twice, three times...

The massive fluctuations and dissipation of spiritual energy were a huge drain on Lingxu, which was a spirit of the artifact.

But it persevered relentlessly, refusing to slacken its efforts even slightly.

Li Xian's growth has impressed it time and time again, so it, Lingxu, must not be weak or let its master's prestige be diminished!
With this persistence, a good half hour passed.

at last……

A certain part of the nearly thousand-mile-long rift valley seemed to have been awakened from its paralysis, emitting a ripple that could distort space.

Sensing this ripple, an irrepressible joy welled up within the spiritual energy fluctuations of the Spirit Realm.

Its figure flashed, quickly traversing dozens of miles, and arrived above the ripples that distorted space.

As its resonance with this space intensifies, the ripples of the distorted space spread further and further.

At a certain moment, a second spatial ripple was activated from a certain point in the rift valley.

Immediately afterwards, the entire rift valley resembled a machine that had been sealed away for hundreds of thousands, even millions of years...

Ripples spread out from specific places.

The distortion of space became increasingly apparent during this process, and the effect spread for hundreds of miles, even reaching Lu Jing, who was observing from afar. He was clearly caught in the vortex.

Such a startling commotion made Lü Jing's heart tremble, and he quickly said, "Senior, what are you doing? Please tell me quickly to avoid any misunderstanding."

"You may leave; this matter is none of your concern."

As Li Xian spoke, he added, "Your Lü family's mines in this rift valley will not be affected in any way, and may even receive some additional benefits."

"senior……"

Before Lü Jing could say anything more, the ripples in the void kept overlapping, and at one moment, they seemed to form a whole.

The distortion of space suddenly became incredibly real. A void with a diameter of three or four hundred miles was formed out of thin air, directly completing the sealing of the inside and outside.

Those outside could no longer see the scene inside clearly, and those inside looked out at a distorted view.

It's like looking through a layer of mercury.

The instant this space was formed, Li Xian felt a strange, indescribable feeling.

Just like...

During their time as mortals on Earth, they suddenly found themselves in a forest that could be described as a natural oxygen bar, after leaving a city of steel and concrete.

Even though nothing has changed, due to some differences he couldn't understand, his physical condition reflected his mental state, which was refreshing and delightful.

"It's...it's a success..."

The spiritual void weakly dissipated spiritual energy.

But his mind was filled with joy: "I have activated this natural formation. By using this natural formation, you and the void will become very compatible... But whether you can sense the wonder of the spirit of the void is up to you."

"it is good."

Li nodded.

Just as Lingxu said, as the formation was activated, the power of the void seemed to become very sensitive in this space, and even his newly activated Void Dao Body could sense this change.

Once he has a new understanding of the power of the void, the resulting touches and disturbances will attract the spirits of the void.

If one can capture the insights...

The benefits to the Void Path are immeasurable!

As for how to gain a completely new understanding of the void...

Humans follow the laws of the earth, the earth follows the laws of heaven, heaven follows the laws of the Tao, and the Tao follows the laws of nature!
This special void before him was his best teacher!

He casually chose a rock and sat down, following the subtle sensations of his Void Dao Body, adjusting himself to his most comfortable state.

……

As Li Xian searched for the spirit of the void in this space using the Dao of the Void, the huge commotion that covered hundreds of miles and affected nearly a thousand miles also alarmed the Lü family of Locking Dragon.

Not only the Lü family, but also other prominent families and powerful clans in Yunzhou were aware of this.

In an instant, a large number of cultivators dispatched their disciples to explore the direction of Tianqi Valley.

When they looked at the space in front of them, which seemed to be distorted by some kind of formation, they were all shocked.

"Is this... an array or a secret realm? I've never heard of any powerful figures emerging from Tianqi Valley, so how could there be a secret realm here?"

"A secret realm that can distort space!? This level... it can't be low!"

"Quickly, quickly send a message to the Ancestor! Something terrible has happened! A secret realm has appeared!"

As the scouts relayed the news, the news of the secret realm's emergence spread throughout Yunzhou at an extremely rapid pace.

But then, it was suppressed at an even faster speed.

Clearly, the major families of Yunzhou have joined forces to suppress information.

However, while the news was being kept under wraps, all the prominent families in Yunzhou were quick to act upon hearing the commotion.

One by one, these figures, who could make the entire Yunzhou tremble with a stomp of their feet, emerged from seclusion and headed straight for Tianqi Valley.
