Mysterious mirror hanging high

When Wanshou opened his eyes again, he found himself standing on an endless white field.

The field was covered in white, as if a curtain of snow had fallen. Wanshou squatted down, stretched out his hand and gently brushed it, but found that the white was not ice and snow, but pure white grass leaves.

"Am I dreaming?"

Wanshou is, after all, a person who has achieved the fruit of Taoism and attained the status of Taoist Lord. It's not that he doesn't dream on a daily basis, but he has long been able to control his dreams.

In the past, my dreams were often about enjoying the pleasures of wine and meat, or about becoming the supreme ruler of the era and having all the worlds bow down to me. This was the first time I had fallen into a dream that was not controlled by my own thoughts.

Wanshou raised his head and looked into the distance, and suddenly found that a huge palace made of rocks was floating in the sky above the white plain.

"This palace? Why do these pillars resemble the style of the Changqing Palace? Isn't this eaves copied from the Sense Qi Palace?"

If it were a Taoist master with no roots in the fairy world, he would probably not be able to notice the clues. However, the son of the Taoist master Wanshoutang, not to mention his own father, was almost familiar to the other Taoist masters on weekdays, and he was already familiar with the architectural styles of the temples of the major Taoist masters.

The palace in front of me is simply a mixture of the styles of various great palaces in the fairy world!

"interesting."

Wanshou kicked his legs and jumped high, flying into the palace gate, observing this "weird" fairy palace with great interest.

But when he just stepped into the palace, he was suddenly stunned.

On the high protrusions of the palace hall wall, there were several normal-sized stone seats, most of which were occupied, but there were also a few empty seats.

Wanshou looked up at the kind old man with white hair and beard sitting on the left side of the seat, wearing a green robe, and almost blurted out:

"Daddy!"

This person is none other than Wanshou Daojun’s biological father, one of the Dao Masters who has stood at the pinnacle of the Immortal Realm for countless epochs.

[Evergreen Taoist Master]!

However, Taoist Master Changqing, who was sitting on the stone seat, seemed not to hear Wanshou's call. Instead, he supported his chin, tilted his head, and looked a little bored.

Wanshou immediately realized: "Is this a scene from the past? Father and the Dao Masters are not here now."

"Evergreen!"

A humanoid creature composed of pure white gas sitting on the right slowly spoke:

"That child is about to establish his foundation."

[Daoist Master Gan Qi]!

Wanshou's face turned serious, and even though he knew that this was just a scene from the past, he still bowed respectfully to the humanoid creature made of spiritual energy.

"I was the one who sent the [Questioning Mirror Fate-Observing Method] down there. How could I know about it later than you?"

Taoist Changqing stroked his beard and said, "If he hadn't insisted on reaching the tenth level of Qi training, the time for foundation building could have been moved forward a bit."

"Breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage after reaching the tenth level of Qi Training is a good thing." The [Qi Sensing Dao Zun] composed of white gas sighed, "Every time a cultivator reaches the tenth level of Qi Training appears, my path will be improved a step forward."

"And the more perfect my path becomes, the easier it will become to break through the tenth level of Qi training, and more cultivators will reach this realm..."

"If we continue at this rate, by the end of this era, the tenth level of Qi training should be common in the world of immortal cultivation."

Taoist Changqing frowned and said, "Sensing Qi, although when you achieved the status of a Venerable, you forcibly created the realm of [Qi Training] before building the foundation, so that cultivators don't have to start building the immortal foundation with a mortal body..."

"As your path improves, the upper limit of your Qi training levels continues to increase, and the success rate of cultivators building their foundations becomes higher and higher."

"But wouldn't it be too complicated to train Qi at the tenth level?"

Ganqi Daozun snorted coldly: "What do you know?"

"In my opinion, the optimal upper limit for the Qi Training Stage should be [Thirteenth Stage]! Even for a cultivator with mediocre aptitude, if they can reach the thirteenth stage of Qi Training and then build their foundation, the basic success rate should be 30-40%! And for those geniuses, the probability of building a foundation can be guaranteed to be 80-90%, or even 100%!"

"But the upper limit of Qi training levels has increased, and the time spent in Qi training has also increased." Changqing Daozun sighed, "Qi training cultivators only have a lifespan of a hundred years. Many cultivators with poor aptitudes are already struggling to reach the ninth level of Qi training by the age of eighty!"

"If the [Thirteenth Level of Qi Training] really became popular, how could we have so much time to practice!"

The air on Ganqi Daozun's face was swirling with anger, and his tone was unfriendly:

"Isn't that your problem with evergreen?"

"If you make further progress in your cultivation, won't your lifespan during the Qi training stage be further extended?"

Taoist Changqing shook his head: "How can it be that easy!"

"It is true that the perfection of my path can affect the lifespan of cultivators in the world, but that also has to conform to the laws of heaven and earth."

Dao Zun Gan Qi said slowly, "Countless epochs ago, the lifespan of a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the world was no more than two hundred years, a Golden Core cultivator lived for five hundred years, and a Nascent Soul cultivator only lived for a thousand years."

"After you achieved the status of Venerable, as you gradually perfected your path, the lifespan of a Foundation Establishment cultivator is now three hundred years, a Golden Core cultivator has eight hundred years of freedom, and a Nascent Soul cultivator's lifespan has doubled to two thousand years!"

"Why does the life span of Qi cultivators increase so slowly?"

Taoist Master Changqing sneered, "The Qi Training Realm itself is a realm you forcibly created after achieving the status quo. It is not within the original laws of heaven and earth. I am already very lucky that I can lock the lifespan of Qi Training cultivators to a hundred years!"

"If you want to continue to extend the lifespan of Qi training cultivators, you must more smoothly integrate the concept of the Qi training realm into the laws of heaven and earth. Only then will I have room for change..."

Dao Zun Gan Qi sighed, "In short, you have to think of a way. If a Qi cultivator doesn't have a longer lifespan, raising the upper limit of his Qi training realm is a castle in the air. There's no way to talk about it! My path is tied to you!"

Taoist Changqing tugged at his white beard and glared at me, "You're still relying on me? I advise you to improve your Qi training speed! If you can improve one level a day during Qi training, what's the point of me?"

Dao Zun Gan Qi snorted coldly, "How can it be that easy? The construction of the entire Qi training stage system is a matter of tangible consequences."

"Isn't it because you are incompetent?" Taoist Changqing sneered.

"This is what it's like to fabricate a realm out of thin air."

Dao Zun Gan Qi curled his lips and said, "You, Chang Qing, only need to focus on improving the lifespan of the cultivators, but I, Gan Qi, have to consider a lot more when designing the realm system from scratch."

"Alright, no small talk during the meeting!"

The tall figure sitting in the middle spoke slowly. Wanshou looked up and saw that the man's robe was like a flowing liquid, without a fixed shape. Even his face was blurry. He did not even feel like a concrete person, but more like an abstract concept.

Wanshou knew that this person was the most ancient being in the universe, and could even be said to be the source of all things in the universe...

[Yiyuan Daozun]!
