Mysterious mirror hanging high

[Year 40 of the Changsheng calendar]

A foundation-building pill unexpectedly turned up at an underground auction in the market town. It was purchased by a 70-year-old cultivator of the ninth level of Qi training. However, as soon as the cultivator left the market town, before he had a chance to seek protection from the market town guards, he was surrounded and killed by many Qi training monks. Dozens of Qi training monks engaged in a melee to seize the foundation-building pill. In the end, Lu Yingzhao, with his tenth-level Qi training skills and the fighting ability of his [I Am the Only One] destiny, overwhelmed all the monks, won the pill, and escaped thousands of miles away.

[Year 42 of the Changsheng calendar]

Lu Yingzhao laid the foundation.

In the same year, Lu Yingzhao settled in a place called Qingyun Fairy City, and spent spirit stones to purchase the foundation-building thunder method [Yunlei Heart Method] from the Gongfa Pavilion in the fairy city.

Unlike the low-key dormancy during the Qi training period, Lu Yingzhao began to show his talents during the foundation-building period. He was good at using thunder magic, and with the bonus of his fate, Lu Yingzhao soon became famous in Qingyun Fairy City and several nearby immortal cultivation sects, and made friends with many immortal disciples.

[Year 45 of the Changsheng calendar]

Lu Yingzhao and his friends explore an ancient thunder cave and, after going through numerous trials, obtain an ancient inheritance called the [Mysterious Thunder Broken Jade Sword Manual], a thunder sword manual that leads directly to the Nascent Soul realm, as well as a body-refining technique called the [True Art of Inducing Thunder to Temper the Body].

The friend was from the Jindan sect [Wanlei Sect], and agreed with Lu Yingzhao to study these two ancient secrets together. The skills were originally left with Lu Yingzhao, and the friend made a copy on a jade slip and brought it back to the sect.

After the two parted ways, Lu Yingzhao disappeared. The Wanlei Sect, a Jindan sect, has been searching for Lu Yingzhao for years, but to no avail.

[Year 85 of the Changsheng calendar]

Forty years later, Lu Yingzhao appeared in Qingyun Immortal City again. At this time, her cultivation had reached the late stage of foundation building. She spent a lot of spirit stones at a large auction in Qingyun Immortal City and bought a spiritual object for the Jindan stage.

Upon hearing the news, the Wanlei Sect dispatched four cultivators who had reached the great perfection of the foundation-building stage to surround Lu Yingzhao outside the Qingyun Immortal City. Lu Yingzhao, relying only on the Xuanlei magic sword, fought against four of them alone and annihilated all four cultivators of the Wanlei Sect, demonstrating his invincibility in the foundation-building realm.

The Golden Core Patriarch of Wanlei Sect was furious and used his secret technique to track Lu Yingzhao. Eventually, the two met in another market town and fought a fierce battle. Lu Yingzhao escaped unscathed and disappeared again.

[Year 97 of the Changsheng calendar]

Lu Yingzhao formed the elixir and advanced to the golden elixir realm. The golden elixir has a lifespan of 800 years, which is called minor immortality.

The life span for building a foundation is 300 years, while ordinary people often reach the stage of forming a golden elixir after the age of 200. Even the most direct descendants of immortal sects usually reach the stage of forming a golden elixir after the age of 150. Lu Yingzhao's golden elixir formation is less than 100 years old, which can be said to be a natural prodigy.

[Year 99 of the Changsheng calendar]

Lu Yingzhao's realm was stable. When he came to Wanlei Sect, he still only had a Xuanlei magic sword. It took him more than ten moves to kill the Jindan ancestor of Wanlei Sect with the sword, and his soul was destroyed.

Afterwards, he killed his old friend who was still stuck in the middle stage of foundation building, looted all the treasures of Wanlei Sect, and disappeared.

Afterwards, it was announced to the world in Qingyun Immortal City that the Jindan sword cultivator Lu Yingzhao would hold a Jindan Dharma Assembly at the Gongfa Pavilion in a month to teach the secrets of forming the elixir. Anyone regardless of their cultivation level or sect could attend. The cultivators in several nearby cities were shocked.

A month later, Qingyun Immortal City was packed with people, even many Golden Core ancestors came to watch the ceremony. Lu Yingzhao, holding the Mysterious Thunder Sword, stood atop the Gongfa Pavilion and lectured for three days, imparting all the key secrets of Dan formation to the cultivators present without reservation. A spiritual painter created the "Mysterious Thunder Sword Immortal's Teaching Diagram," which has been passed down through the ages.

At this time, everyone in the Hall of Eternal Life also heard clearly all the contents of the entire Dharma Assembly, and they all took note of it carefully.

[Year 100 of the Changsheng calendar]

On Lu Yingzhao's 100th birthday, she sat upright in her cave, looked up at the sky, and bowed to the people in the mirror, saying:

"In the southern region of Tianxiang Xianzhou, in Qingyun Xiancheng, Lu Yingzhao is waiting for all of you fellow Taoists."

The image in the mirror went out.

Jing Yu shuddered, as if waking up from a dream. The hundred years were real, but he felt that they had passed in the blink of an eye. However, all kinds of scenes seemed vivid in his mind, which was worthy of the skills of an immortal.

"Brother Lu's destiny of [I am the only one] makes him very good at making everyone in the world his enemies. The last person who awakened to this destiny turned the entire fairy world upside down. It's rare that Brother Lu has such an upright and bright character. He acts in a domineering way, which is a blessing for all living beings." Xuan Qingzi commented.

"Which fellow Taoist is next?"

"Let me come, let me come!"

The fat boy Ye Xingyun, who had awakened the destiny of [seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune], was already rubbing his hands in anticipation and couldn't wait to step into the Heavenly Gate.

[Year 101 of the Changsheng calendar]

Ye Xingyun was born in the Ye family, a Yuanying immortal clan, on an island in the Luoxing Sea. He is the only grandson of the Yuanying ancestor of the immortal clan.

Jing Yu in the hall couldn't help but open his mouth wide. He had thought that this little fat boy had amazing luck, but he didn't expect it to be so outrageous that he was born as the grandson of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The Ye family was founded by the ancestor of the Ye family. A Nascent Soul cultivator has a lifespan of two thousand years. The ancestor of the Ye family is just under a thousand years old at this time. It can be said that he is at the peak of his career.

It is difficult for high-level cultivators to give birth to offspring. The ancestor of the Ye family has no more than ten children. Among these more than ten people, only one son and one daughter have spiritual roots. The daughter is devoted to the immortal path and has never married. Only the son with spiritual roots can start a family and build a career.

Ye Xingyun was born when this only son was over 400 years old. He was the only direct blood relative, and they were also relatives of different generations. One can imagine how much the Ye family ancestor doted on Ye Xingyun.

Needless to say, Ye Xingyun has been practicing the art of spiritual medicine since he was a child. Whenever he travels, he is personally protected by two Jindan guards.

You have to know that a Jindan cultivator can be considered a guest of honor even in the Yuanying Immortal Clan, but now he has to serve as a personal guard for a child who has not yet started practicing. This shows the generosity of the Ye family's ancestor.

[Year 106 of the Changsheng calendar]

Ye Xingyun was six years old, and this was the day for him to test his spiritual roots. The entire Ye family was busy that day. As the patriarch, Ye's father came to the clan's ancestral hall early to preside over the spiritual testing ceremony for his only son.

Normally, the spirit-testing ceremony for the younger generation was not a big deal, let alone the personal attention of the Nascent Soul Patriarch. But on this day, the Ye family ancestor was already sitting in the ancestral hall, and he was going to personally test the spirit for his grandson.

The Yuanying Patriarch's method of testing spirits was naturally extraordinary. Ye Xingyun not only detected that it was a rare mutated wind spirit root, but also a natural phenomenon. The spirit root actually took on the image of a strange beast, Fei Lian.

It should be noted that spiritual roots are self-generated, and those who possess spiritual roots often have single-attribute spiritual roots. Spiritual roots with multiple attributes are extremely rare. Therefore, the quality of spiritual roots can only be judged by the anomaly of the spiritual roots.

Generally, people with mediocre qualifications do not even have any spiritual root visions, and can only see the attributes of their own spiritual roots. Those with better qualifications often only see common visions such as a drop of water, a ball of fire, a sapling, a thunder, and a breeze.

Those who can possess such a strange phenomenon as the exotic beast Fei Lian are rare among those with wind spiritual roots!

The ancestor of the Ye family was overjoyed to see this, and immediately sealed three Nascent Soul magical powers in Ye Xingyun's body to protect him.

[Year 107 of the Changsheng calendar]

Ye Xingyun drew Qi into his body and became a Qi-cultivating cultivator.

[Year 109 of the Changsheng calendar]

A Xumi Cave Heaven floating in the sky happened to fall next to Ye Xingyun who was playing in the Ye family's ancestral land. Inside it was the ancient cultivator's inheritance [The True Explanation of Qiankun Xunfeng], as well as a spiritual wind-attributed treasure fan. When the treasure fan saw Ye Xingyun, it immediately recognized its master.

The Ye family's ancestor discovered this matter at the first time, and immediately began to conceal the secret and block the news. Fortunately, the sound of Xumi Cave Heaven falling to the ground was not loud, and no one else discovered it.

[Year 127 of the Changsheng calendar]

Ye Xingyun has reached the ninth level of Qi training.

In the same year, a seriously injured cultivator accidentally broke into the Ye family's formation and died in the formation. Ye Xingyun was practicing in the retreat room. When he heard about this, he went out to investigate and found three excellent foundation-building pills in the storage bag of the cultivator's body.
