Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

When Dong Zhongqing saw Xu Yulian, he was almost speechless. Seeing her extremely haggard appearance, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.

Dong Zhongqing said anxiously, "Yulian, why do you look so pale? Are you sick?"

As he spoke, he reached out to touch her forehead, but Xu Yulian stepped back.

Xu Yulian said calmly, "I am no longer a member of the Dong family, so you don't need to care about me so much."

As she spoke, it seemed she was trying to comfort herself, that only after she was no longer a member of the Dong family could she be with someone else.

After listening to the conversation between the two people inside the house, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but smile and put on his clothes.

"Yu Lian, you... don't you understand me at all?"

As he spoke, Dong Zhongqing was extremely anxious. Although he had brought a letter of divorce, he had no intention of doing so at all.

Unfortunately, Li Xiuyuan intervened from the side. As he struck out, a gust of wind blew by, forcing Dong Zhongqing to raise his hand to block it. At that moment, a piece of paper fell from his sleeve.

what!

Curious, Xu Yulian picked up the letter of divorce from the ground. When she saw what was written on it, she turned pale and exclaimed, "You...you!"

As she spoke, her face turned deathly pale. She hadn't expected Dong Zhongqing to bring a letter of divorce, seemingly intending to divorce her.

"Yu Lian, I..."

Dong Zhongqing was about to explain something, but Xu Yulian wouldn't listen and pushed him out of the house.

Xu Yulian coldly said, "You can leave now! Since I have the letter of divorce, we have nothing to do with each other from now on."

As she spoke, she closed the door, tears streaming down her face.

"Yulian, open the door and let me explain!"

As he spoke, Dong Zhongqing was extremely anxious. He hadn't expected that the letter of divorce would suddenly fall down and be seen by Xu Yulian.

"Get out...get out of here!"

As she spoke, Xu Yulian shouted angrily, "She's already written a letter of divorce, what else is there to explain? She's not an ignorant girl, she's not so easily fooled."

"I...I...!"

"Ugh!"

Dong Zhongqing sighed and finally left. He knew in his heart that once the other party saw the letter of divorce, their fragile relationship would become irreparable.

When Dong Zhongqing returned home, Madam Dong was naturally overjoyed, and she was able to fulfill her wish that her son would marry a lady from a prominent family.

However, after their wedding night, the woman discovered that her husband was impotent, and the next day she ran home. Her family heard that their daughter had been humiliated.

After all, you don't even have the ability, yet you want to marry my daughter. Isn't that just making her live a life of widowhood?

Therefore, the woman's family began to suppress the Dong family, and that incident would ruin Dong Zhongqing's reputation, forcing the mother and son to beg for a living every day.

Of course, all of the above happened several months later.

Even Xu Yulian couldn't see it, but her younger brother was very happy and even clapped his hands in delight, because he had abandoned his sister.

"Woo!"

Seeing Xu Yulian crying incessantly, Li Xiuyuan finally stepped forward and comforted her, saying, "Yulian, don't cry. You still have me by your side, so you won't be lonely in the future."

As he spoke, he thought to himself, "Hehe, it's even better that she's gone from Dong Zhongqing. Xu Yulian will be able to follow me perfectly from now on and won't think about anyone else."

"Wow!"

Upon hearing these words, Xu Yulian seemed to cry even more bitterly. Her face, already pale, appeared even more helpless as tears streamed down her cheeks.

"love me!"

Suddenly, Xu Yulian spoke up, her first time confessing her love, which took everyone by surprise.

Li Xiuyuan asked in confusion, "Yulian, what did you say?"

As he spoke, he wondered if she was sick, but although her face was pale, she didn't have a fever!

"I want you to love me, to love me fiercely."

As she spoke, Xu Yulian took the initiative to kiss him.

Seeing that Xu Yulian was taking the initiative every day, Li Xiuyuan naturally didn't hold back. He embraced Xu Yulian and gave her an unforgettable night.

After Li Xiuyuan won over Xu Yulian, she had no further connection with the Dong family.

Li Xiuyuan might be staying in a small mountain village, since he had already wasted a lot of time and it was time for him to leave.

After settling Xu Yulian's younger brother in, Li Xiuyuan helped him find a stable job and then awakened his intelligence, enabling him to have a photographic memory in the future.

With this ability, Xu Yulian's younger brother will have a much easier time becoming the top scholar in the imperial examination.

As for Li Xiuyuan, he left with Xu Yulian. He didn't wander around for long before heading back to Lingyin Temple. After all, he couldn't linger too long during this special period.

Chapter 363 The Twelve Ancestral Witches

Li Xiuyuan spent a month wandering around the mountain. After balancing work and rest, he prepared to go into seclusion again. His Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong had reached the fifth level of perfection, which had been going on for several years. Now he was seeking an opportunity to break through.

Li Xiuyuan sat cross-legged on the back mountain. He saw a large array rising up, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a hundred miles was constantly gathering and cleansing his body.

Li Xiuyuan was practicing the Nine Revolutions Yuan Technique, which required a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth. Even with the help of the Spirit Gathering Array, it was still a drop in the ocean. He secluded himself for half a year in a flash.

With a thought, Li Xiuyuan took out a dark green bottle from the world of the Sea-Stabilizing Divine Pearl. The bottle was filled with Chaos Spirit Liquid, which he had accumulated over the years.

At this moment, Li Xiuyuan thought to himself that it was almost time to enter the sixth level, and with the help of these Chaos Spirit Liquids, it would be much easier.

Li Xiuyuan swallowed the chaotic spiritual liquid into his stomach. The liquid flowed into his limbs and bones, slowly merging into his heart, and the Nine Revolutions Yuan Technique began to circulate.

Unlike Yang Jian, Li Xiuyuan did not have the help of Yu Ding Zhenren to refine pills, but his physique was extremely special. Since merging with the essence blood of Pangu, he could be described as an ancestral witch.

Legend has it that Pangu wanted to prove the Great Dao, so he used the axe that split the chaos. The axe then broke into several parts, the most important of which were the Chaos Bell, the Taiji Diagram, and the Pangu Banner.

Pangu used the Taiji diagram to determine the earth, fire, wind, and water, to separate the pure from the turbid, to create the primordial world, and to evolve the six realms of reincarnation, which continues endlessly.

Pangu died because he was unable to support the power to create heaven and earth. His primordial spirit split into the Three Pure Ones, Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, and Tongtian Jiaozhu, who created heaven and earth. Most of his body's essence and blood transformed into the Twelve Ancestral Witches, while a small portion circulated in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Among them, the Three Pure Ones are reincarnations of Pangu, so they call him the Father God. The three of them obtained Pangu's primordial spirit and claimed to be the true descendants of Pangu.

The Ancestral Witches, on the other hand, received a portion of the essence and blood. They were unable to cultivate their primordial spirit and were ignorant of the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, they were looked down upon by the Three Pure Ones, who considered them to be nothing more than brutes who knew how to use brute force.

However, each of the Twelve Ancestral Witches was extraordinary. Although they could not compare to the Three Pure Ones and others, they were still very famous among the innate deities.

The twelve ancestral witches are:

It is shaped like a yellow sac, red as cinnabar fire, with six legs and four wings, and is a chaotic, faceless creature. This is Dijiang, who controls the laws of space.

Secondly, it is as green as bamboo, with a bird's body and a human face, riding two dragons; this is Jumang, who controls the laws of wood.

The three beings have tiger faces and bodies covered in golden scales, with wings growing from their shoulder blades, a snake piercing their left ear, and riding two dragons; this is Ru, who controls the laws of metal.

The fourth one has a python's head and a human body, covered in black scales, standing on a black dragon, and with a green python wrapped around his hand; this is Gonggong, who controls the laws of water.

It has five animal heads and a human body, covered in red scales, with fire snakes piercing its ears and fire dragons under its feet; it is Zhu Rong, who controls the laws of fire.

Its six heads are human faces, tiger bodies and ten tails, it is called Tianwu, and it controls the laws of wind.

The seventh one has a snake in his mouth and a snake in his hand. He has a tiger's head, a human body, four hooves, and long elbows; he is Qiangliang, and he controls the law of thunder.

The eight beings have human faces and bird bodies, with green snakes hanging from their ears and red snakes in their hands; this is called Xizi, who controls the laws of electricity.

It has nine human faces and snake bodies, and its whole body is red; it is called Zhu Jiuyin, and it controls the laws of time.

It has ten human faces and beast bodies, with dog-like ears and green snakes hanging from them; this is Shebi Shi, who controls the laws of poison.

It has eleven human bodies and snake tails, seven hands behind its back and two hands in front of its chest, holding a flying serpent; it is Houtu, who controls the laws of earth.

The twelfth is a ferocious behemoth covered in bone spurs. It is Xuanming, who controls the Law of Rain.

The twelve Ancestral Witches were all extraordinary, and all were quasi-saint level experts. The Heavenly Tyrant Cultivation Technique they practiced was also quite remarkable.

These twelve Ancestral Witches were already experts at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortals when they first took human form. Li Xiuyuan had integrated Pangu's essence blood. Pangu wanted to attain the Great Dao, so his cultivation must have been terrifying. Even a drop of his essence blood was extraordinary.

As you can see, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were all transformed from the essence and blood of Pangu, yet they caused chaos and destruction in ancient times, and even the demon race could not do anything about them.

In addition, there is Li Xiuyuan. Although he has integrated Pangu's blood essence, he has not been able to fully digest it. Now, nearly ten years have passed, and in addition, he was originally quite extraordinary.

Furthermore, with the World Tree constantly transforming the Chaos Spirit Liquid, it was much easier for Li Xiuyuan to enter the sixth level of the Nine Revolutions Yuan Technique compared to others. In his heart, a golden blood sphere was constantly expanding.

The golden blood slowly seeped into Li Xiuyuan's entire body. As this essence blood was refined, he, who was originally at the Great Perfection of the Golden Immortal realm, seemed to receive a great stimulus, and his meridians circulated, finally breaking through to the sixth level.

After a long while, Li Xiuyuan let out a long sigh. Looking at his Pangu essence blood, which had been completely consumed, he thought to himself, "Pangu is indeed extraordinary. If it weren't for his essence blood, I'm afraid I would have needed to spend another hundred years to reach the sixth level of the Nine Revolutions Yuan Technique!"

Moreover, that is the most conservative estimate. After all, in the past few hundred years, only those innate gods can compare to the Great Luo Golden Immortals who have reached the physical body level.

Li Xiuyuan has now reached the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal in terms of physical body, which took only a hundred years. Even among innate gods, few can compare to him.

However, a large part of this is due to the essence of Pangu's blood. Just a drop of essence is so powerful, which shows just how powerful Pangu was.

Li Xiuyuan thought to himself, if Pangu could split the chaos so wide, then the Heavenly Dao of this primordial world probably wouldn't be enough for him to chop with a single axe.

Therefore, it is likely that Pangu's cultivation level was unfathomable, and many of those Chaos Demons probably reached the Heavenly Dao realm.

Chapter 364 Great Luo Golden Immortal

The commotion behind Lingyin Temple caused the spiritual energy to surge, all of which was under the watchful eyes of Zhunti and Jieyin. Ever since they decided to consider having Jianglong participate in the journey to the West, they had made him a key subject of observation.

Beyond the chaos, endless gales raged. In a small world, Zhunti and Jieyin sat in their true forms. Zhunti smiled and said, "Senior brother, this Jianglong is quite extraordinary. He has actually broken through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. You and I can let him participate in the Journey to the West."

"Indeed! The reincarnation of Jianglong is only a hundred years old, yet he has comprehended the laws of space, and has even reached the sixth level of the Nine Revolutions Yuan Technique. He must have had an extraordinary opportunity!"

After saying this, the Buddha of Guidance sighed deeply. He was shocked by the dragon's power, but he did not take it to heart. As the saying goes: "If you don't become a saint, you will always be an ant!"
