My Mythical Path to Immortality in Another World

In an instant, the entire Heavenly Court descended into chaos! The gods and immortals panicked and scattered in all directions, the situation spiraling out of control. Just at this critical moment, a deep and majestic voice suddenly rang out: "Silence!"

The sound was like a muffled thunderclap, piercing straight through the eardrums of the gods and striking the depths of their souls.

The speaker was none other than Laozi! His seemingly ordinary words now contained boundless pressure and awe-inspiring power. Upon hearing them, the gods trembled involuntarily, their previously restless hearts instantly calming down.

Admittedly, although the gods present had never witnessed Laozi personally take action, everyone knew that Laozi was the benevolent incarnation of the Taiqing Sage.

It should be noted that the Supreme Saint is hailed as the strongest being below the Dao Ancestor. Moreover, the Dao Ancestor is currently in seclusion, and the other five saints are busy preparing for the war in the Human Immortal Realm.

In this way, the Supreme Sage could act without any scruples in this vast and boundless primordial world.

Let alone these few people who have just been resurrected, even if they were at their peak, they would probably find it difficult to withstand a casual strike from the Supreme Saint.

Once all the gods had quieted down, the Jade Emperor, seated high above the Lingxiao Palace, finally calmed down a little.

His expression turned grave as he surveyed his surroundings, then commanded in a deep voice, "My esteemed ministers, act swiftly! Thoroughly search every corner and find the possible hiding places of those individuals. Pay particular attention to Luo Hou, Di Jun, and Tai Yi; be especially vigilant in identifying any clues they may have left behind!"

With the Jade Emperor's command, all the gods obeyed and began a tense and meticulous search operation...

As for the renowned Eight Ancestral Witches and the Two Demon Emperors, there's no need to think about them at all.

As long as they manage to escape their confinement, Houtu will undoubtedly protect them without hesitation. It should be understood that in the mysterious and unpredictable Netherworld, even the supreme Dao Ancestor, without a resolute determination to destroy the entire primordial world, would likely be powerless against Houtu.

Although she said things like, "Hou Tu is no longer the Wu tribe, now we can only be at peace."

But if Houtu had truly let go of her emotional entanglements and responsibilities with the Wu Clan, then why would she have taken such a huge risk and endured the heavy pressure from the Dao Ancestor to resolutely protect the Xuanming Ancestral Wu?

In fact, Houtu's decision to no longer appear as a member of the Wu tribe was not because she had become estranged from the Wu tribe. On the contrary, she did so out of a profound consideration, aiming to preserve the Wu tribe lineage as much as possible.

However, we cannot ignore an important fact—Houtu was a powerful woman with astonishing strength!

In this vast and wondrous primordial world, the physical forms of those powerful beings born from heaven and earth, whether male or female, are not entirely bestowed by heaven and earth. More often than not, it depends on their profound insights and unique experiences during their long years of cultivation.

This is why, in the primordial world, many powerful women often exhibit a more emotional and compassionate side.

For example, the goddess Houtu, the saint Nuwa, and the Queen Mother of the West who governs female immortals, and other outstanding female beings, all cared for all things in the world with their own unique ways, filled with compassion and kindness.

It is no exaggeration to say that the moral code of women among the post-natal human race was constructed based on these powerful women.

However, these women are not immune to certain inherent flaws in women. For example, they often exhibit stubbornness.

Houtu, a person of great compassion, did not hesitate to sacrifice herself to reincarnate in order to save all living beings.

However, her righteous act triggered a change in the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, the great clan-protecting formation of the Wu tribe, which indirectly led to the Wu tribe's defeat in the war.

Moreover, several of Houtu's elder brothers also tragically perished in this fierce battle. Among them, the earth-shattering collision by Gonggong, the ancestral witch, was the most terrifying, a scene that instantly caused Houtu's guilt to reach its peak.

Therefore, when those high and mighty sages decided to execute the Xuanming Ancestral Witch, Houtu nearly went mad and almost overturned the entire prehistoric world by herself.

Faced with Houtu's overwhelming anger and resolute determination, the saints had no choice but to compromise and back down. On the surface, they suppressed the Xuanming Ancestral Witch in the Netherworld, but in reality, this was just an agreement reached by both sides.

Houtu and Xuanming kept their promise and lived in the Netherworld ever since, never setting foot in the outside world again.

However, everyone knows one thing: never try to reason with a woman, even if she is a female saint. Therefore, people have never paid any attention to the whereabouts of the Eight Ancestral Witches.

Compared to Houtu, Xuanming, and others, Dijun and Taiyi's situations are slightly different.

Although they were of the same clan as Nuwa, their relationship was far less close. But if it were Fuxi, the situation would be completely different.

In the past, Fuxi's true spirit should have been sealed in the Sea of ​​True Spirits, never to be reborn.

However, at the crucial moment, the goddess Nuwa spoke up, overruling all objections. She not only successfully prevented Fuxi's true spirit from suffering the torment of suppression, but also helped him reincarnate into the human race, eventually becoming a celestial emperor.

But things in this world are often unpredictable; who could have foreseen that Rahu's whereabouts would be discovered so quickly?

Even more astonishingly, just as Rahu was about to perish, he suddenly grasped the profound truth of "destruction before construction." With this flash of insight, he managed to elevate the Law of Destruction he controlled to the first tenth level of the Law of Destruction!

It should be understood that in the primordial world, all laws originated from the laws of chaos. Even a mere tenth of the law of destruction is powerful enough to rival a complete and flawless primordial law.

This enabled Luo Hou to break through to the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Of course, all of this has to start with the Journey to the West calamity. Originally, the Journey to the West calamity was already quite complicated, so the immortals and Buddhas simplified things and tried to make the Journey to the West proceed according to the established script.

After being enhanced by Zhao Xuan, Sun Wukong caused even more chaos in the heavens, preventing the great calamity from proceeding as planned.

In this way, the calamity energy between heaven and earth lost its original direction and target, and began to run wildly in all directions.

Rahu was the first person to be subject to the great calamity, and had a tremendous karmic connection with it.

Therefore, after Rahu escaped, he was used as a reserve force by the calamity energy in the Great Calamity.

As a result, the endless calamity energy that had been gradually disappearing from the five members of the Journey to the West group seemed to have found a new home and began to converge on Rahu.

Thus, Rahu became the new person destined for this great calamity, the son of this great calamity.

However, as the saying goes, fortune and misfortune are intertwined. As a large amount of calamity energy continuously poured into Rahu's body, Rahu also received an unimaginable amount of calamity-level feedback.

Ultimately, under the feedback of the calamity energy, Luo Hou successfully broke through the bottleneck and stepped into the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Just as Luo Hou achieved the Great Dao, the entire primordial world instantly fell into chaos.

The sun and moon were turned upside down, and the vast sky seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of black demonic energy. The once peaceful and tranquil land had now become a place where demonic forces ran rampant.

The heavens and earth changed color, and countless immortals and Buddhas who had not yet attained the protection of their positions were corrupted by this powerful demonic energy, falling into demonic possession and losing their minds.

Meanwhile, Rahu faced the tribulation of lightning, a necessary trial for his ascension to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Unexpectedly, at this crucial moment, the Supreme Pure Sage became the one destined to face the tribulation, personally appearing to prevent Rahu from attaining enlightenment. A world-shaking battle was about to erupt.

But who could have imagined that Rahu would also have such a great opportunity when facing a formidable enemy like the Supreme Saint?

They somehow obtained the Four Swords of Zhuxian and the Zhuxian Sword Formation diagram. Without hesitation, they chose to set up this incredibly powerful Zhuxian Sword Formation on the Journey to the West, preparing to fight the Sage of Taiqing...

It should be noted that after the initial calamity of the Dragon and Han dynasties, Luo Hou's four swords of Zhuxian and the Zhuxian sword formation diagram were seized by Dao Ancestor Honghuang and bestowed upon Tongtian Shengren.

During the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, the Sage Tongtian set up the Immortal Slaughtering Formation to hinder King Wu of Zhou from attacking King Zhou of Shang. However, the formation was broken by the combined efforts of the Sage Taiqing, the Sage Yuanshi, the Sage Jieyin, and the Sage Zhunti.

From then on, the Four Swords of Zhuxian and the Zhuxian Sword Formation Diagram were divided among the Four Saints.

However, everyone can confirm that the Four Immortal Swords and the Immortal Sword Formation, which were divided among the Four Saints, are still in the hands of the disciples. But Luo Hou somehow obtained a second set of the Four Immortal Swords and the Immortal Sword Formation diagram.

Even the most primordial beings were baffled. The Zhuxian Sword Formation Diagram was crafted by Luo Hou himself, used to command the Four Zhuxian Swords and set up the Zhuxian Sword Formation.

However, the Four Swords of Zhuxian are a complete set of top-grade innate spiritual treasures. Innate spiritual treasures are inherently unique, let alone a complete set of top-grade spiritual treasures, which are also complete sets of top-grade innate spiritual treasures. There is no way that a second set will appear.

However, Rahu not only possessed a second set of the supreme innate spiritual treasures, the Four Swords of Zhuxian, but also became part of the Journey to the West's great calamity, leaving both Buddhism and Taoism helpless.

This is truly unbearable. First of all, it should be noted that the place for this tribulation has actually been chosen to be the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Compared to the terrifying tribulation of the Primordial Golden Immortal, the spatial strength of the Earthly Immortal Realm is simply insignificant, unable to withstand its fierce baptism.

Just as Luo Hou began his tribulation as a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, the entire Earthly Immortal Realm descended into chaos. Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, with countless thick, dragon-like bolts of lightning crashing down, cracking the space itself as if trying to rip the heavens and earth apart.

Faced with such a terrifying scene, even the Supreme Saint of Taiqing dared not be careless in the slightest. If this tribulation were allowed to continue unchecked, not only would the Earthly Immortal Realm suffer annihilation, but it might even affect the entire Primordial World.

Therefore, Taiqing offered up his two strongest spiritual treasures—the Taiji Diagram and the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda.

The appearance of these two treasures naturally stabilized the space of the Earthly Immortal Realm, which had been ravaged like a tattered rag by the Heavenly Thunder, but these two spiritual treasures were also restricted.

However, during Rahu's tribulation, he also frantically absorbed the endless spiritual energy around him.

This spiritual energy surged towards Rahu like a tidal wave, causing the concentration of spiritual energy in the Earthly Immortal Realm to drop drastically. Seeing that the Earthly Immortal Realm was about to enter the Dharma-ending Age due to the depletion of spiritual energy, the gods of the Heavenly Court could no longer sit idly by and had to awaken the countless stars in the sky and set up the Zhou Tian Grand Array and the Star Array.

Once activated, this grand formation can draw upon the power of the stars and refine the chaotic energy, continuously replenishing the primordial world with spiritual energy.

With the combined efforts of all the gods, the Zhou Tian Grand Array successfully activated, and dazzling starlight descended from the sky, pouring into the Earthly Immortal Realm. After much arduous work, the spiritual energy crisis in the Earthly Immortal Realm was finally alleviated.

However, because the Sage Taiqing used the Taiji Diagram and the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda to stabilize the space of the Immortal Realm, and the gods of the Heavenly Court used the Zhou Tian Grand Array to replenish spiritual energy, their most powerful methods were restrained by Rahu.

In this situation, when the Sage Taiqing wanted to subdue Rahu, he found that he had lost the protection of the two great spiritual treasures, which greatly limited his own strength.

Despite his best efforts in the fierce battle with Rahu, his progress was still very slow, and he was held back by Rahu.

The great battle between the two sages in the celestial realm happened to occur on the journey to the West. This made it difficult for the Buddhist sect to allow Xuanzang to pass through the area, even if they wanted to continue their pilgrimage.

This dragged on for nearly a thousand years. Under normal circumstances, Tang Xuanzang would have died without leaving a trace.

However, if Tang Xuanzang were to reincarnate again, it would be too much of a problem. Therefore, the Buddhist community had no choice but to let Tang Xuanzang begin his cultivation. After all, even if he were to use longevity-extending items to prolong his life, it would only be a matter for Tang Xuanzang alone.

The reason why Buddhism chose Xuanzang to embark on his pilgrimage during the Zhenguan era was because it coincided with a prosperous period in human history, a time of great fortune for humanity. They hoped to harness this powerful aura to ensure the successful completion of the pilgrimage and thus achieve their own grand ambition.

In order to ensure a good ending, Buddhism paid an unknown price to extend Li Shimin's life by more than ten years.

In this way, he was able to survive until Xuanzang returned from his pilgrimage to India.

However, Rahu's obstruction of the road was not just a matter of a dozen years, but a long period of a thousand years!

Even if Buddhism tries every means to prolong his life, how can it allow Li Shimin and the ministers of the Zhenguan era to live for a thousand years?

Many years ago, when Buddhism realized that relying on ordinary spiritual objects to prolong the lives of Tang Xuanzang, Li Shimin, and the civil and military officials during the Zhenguan era was no longer a viable option, it decisively abandoned this method.

Instead, they were guided onto the path of cultivation, with the hope that they could achieve longevity through cultivation methods.

After all, longevity-extending spiritual items such as peaches of immortality, ginseng fruits, and even golden pills, although powerful in their effects and capable of extending one's life by thousands or even tens of thousands of years, are simply ineffective for ordinary people with no cultivation foundation to effectively refine and absorb their medicinal power!
