Chapter 355: Etiquette is more important than friendship
'What are these father and son doing?'
Yaochi put down the precious mirror in his hand and glanced aside, with a bit more curiosity in his eyes.
Li Dazhi and Li Pingan were sitting cross-legged in front of the portraits of Patriarch Hongjun and Sanqing, both of whom seemed to be fast asleep at the moment.
The souls of the two have been hiding in Li Ping'an's Lingtai, and it has been several hours now.
Yaochi watched the chaotic battles in Xizhou from a distance, but she didn't feel bored, but sometimes she thought of the human god-general Nv Ba, and felt a little troublesome.
She thinks Mu Ningning is good, because Mu Ningning is very weak;
She thinks Qingsu is quite cute because she also likes Qingsu's temperament, that is, he is a pure cultivator.
But this female demon...
She is really too strong, and she has mastered the Way of Disaster. As the daughter of the Human Emperor and an ancient heroic general, she has guarded ASEAN for tens of thousands of years, and she has a very high prestige among the human race.
If it was said that the female emperor had a crush on Li Ping'an, Yaochi would not believe it.
What's more here is the human race's calculation of the power of heaven...
Yaochi thought quietly, but the war scenes shown in the Kunlun Mirror did not quite attract her attention.
This scene is still far behind the two great battles in ancient times.
Half an hour ago, the situation had reached the point where the human masters were about to collectively fall into demonic state;
The female demon descended from the sky with twelve golden immortals - it was actually a sneak attack;
Guangchengzi held Fan Tianyin to suppress several great demons, Taiyi Zhenren's Jiulong Lihuo shield tore apart the array of demon soldiers, and Yuding Zhenren grabbed the leg of a big tripod and smashed two ancient ministers of the heavenly court to death.
The situation was directly reversed.
The Twelve Golden Immortals of Chanjiao claimed that they were ordered by Li Ping'an, the quasi-heavenly emperor of the new heaven, to come here to capture the remnants of the ancient heaven and protect the right path through the vicissitudes of life.
At this moment, the hundreds of tribes have withdrawn their troops, and the reinforcements transferred from the Human Race from Dongzhou have entered the three cities of Dingxi;
After Chan taught the Twelve Golden Immortals to establish their power, they did not leave, but continued to keep a close eye on the old ministers of the ancient heaven in the demon clan camp.
Even if the disciples of the Western Sect had not appeared to stop them, these ancient ministers of the ancient heaven would have had three achievements to explain here.
If Li Ping'an could take a look at this battle, he would probably exclaim, "It's so fierce."
The Fantian Seal that Guangchengzi took action today seems to have increased tenfold in weight. This seal, which was refined from Buzhou Mountain, can easily kill Taoist masters whose strength is slightly inferior to Guangchengzi's. It is really a great weapon in chaotic battles.
Huh?
Yaochi looked at Li Pingan again.
She didn't know if it was her misunderstanding, but she always felt that Li Ping'an's soul was continuing to strengthen at this moment.
It shouldn't be an illusion.
At this moment, Li Ping'an's whole body was a little more jade-colored, and a layer of 'rime' even appeared on his forehead.
This is obviously a vision that occurs when the soul is strengthened and transformed.
'The enhancement of the soul should not be about breaking through a small realm. Logically speaking, the transformation of the soul can only occur when breaking through a large realm...'
Yaochi really can’t understand it.
Inside Li Ping'an's memorial platform, there was another scene of light and shadow.
…
"Hey, this remnant soul is quite stubborn."
The souls of Li Dazhi and Li Ping'an squatted in the corner of the spiritual platform, fearing that they would be discovered by the 'figures' that kept appearing and being crushed above.
In front of the two people, hundreds of jade leaves were neatly arranged, and the information inside them was equivalent to hundreds of ancient books.
There is no way, Di Jun's remaining soul has been shattered more than 960 times, and every time it is shattered, a little gold dust shakes off.
The two of them didn't have to do anything. Within a few hours, the power of their souls increased dramatically.
Li Ping'an's previous six spiritual transformations have pushed his Yuanshen to an extremely high quality. He is now standing on the threshold of immortality, surpassing ordinary low-grade golden immortals.
——This advantage will accompany the improvement of Li Ping'an's Dao realm. If Li Ping'an enters the Golden Immortal realm, his soul quality will exceed that of the third-grade Golden Immortal.
And now...
Li Ping'an discovered that he didn't even need to break through the Golden Immortal. The power of the Yuan Shen had begun to catch up with the third-level Golden Immortal, and the power of the Yuan Shen had already matched the quality of his own Yuan Shen.
His soul strode ahead of the Tao body and Tao realm.
Just, very strange.
The stronger the soul is, the easier it will be to activate the heavy treasure, and the combat effectiveness will naturally rise linearly.
His only shortcoming now is that he doesn't have enough magic power. He has explosive power when fighting, but his endurance is not very good. If he wants to improve his strength, he still needs to continue to make breakthroughs.
On his way back from the outer world, Li Pingan actually tried to comprehend the Golden Immortal Realm.
His insights were abundant, and his affinity with the soul and the avenue was completely sufficient, but because he lacked a key insight, he was unable to successfully take this step.
Compared with Li Ping'an, the situation at Li Dazhi's side is much simpler.
"I can't hold it in any longer!"
Li Dazhi frowned and looked at Li Ping'an and muttered:
"The power of Emperor Jun's remnant soul is too strong. I can't hold down the Dao realm anymore, and I'm about to break through to the Golden Immortal!"
"Dad, wait a moment."
Li Pingan said seriously:
"This remnant soul is still trying to come out. If you leave, the power of the soul will destroy me."
Li Dazhi sighed: "I know your intentions, you want me to share the opportunity with you, but be safe...I'm not kidding you, I'm going to explode if I don't make a breakthrough!"
Li Ping'an glanced below the golden cloud.
The Inner Heavenly Dao and the Outer Heavenly Dao were still in a stalemate. The figure that had appeared nine hundred and sixty-seven times was easily shattered by the Spirit-Slaying Banner again, and wisps of golden sand continued to fall.
"Okay, Dad, go ahead and break through. I'll be here to guard you."
"I couldn't hold it in anymore!"
Li Dazhi shouted angrily, and the little Yuanshen rushed out of Li Ping'an's spiritual platform.
The next moment, he jumped up, said hello to Yaochi quickly, flew out of the secret room in a hurry, and spoke to the elders of the Zhuyun Sect.
The bell at the gate of Zhuyun Sect rang loudly.
The elders and disciples were alerted and rushed to the main peak to watch the ceremony.
Li Dazhi didn't need to make any further preparations. A strong fairy light erupted around him, and his figure was wrapped in a pillar of light that penetrated the sky and the earth. His own avenue and the avenue between heaven and earth continued to rub and collide, trying to squeeze out his own path.
But today, the Tao is incomplete, and there is no need to survive the tribulation to become an immortal and live forever.
Li Dazhi's figure continued to rise from the beam of light, and his slightly fat figure exuded strong pressure.
The elders in the sect felt inexplicably, and the eyes of Zhuyun Sect disciples were filled with extraordinary splendor.
This is definitely the fastest practicing golden immortal in human history!
Li Dazhi's breakthrough will take a while.
In fact, breakthroughs can be fast or slow. If you want to be fast, you can complete the sublimation in an instant. If you want to be slow, you should slowly check yourself and adjust your status, so that you will not have any regrets before and after your breakthrough.
Li Dazhi naturally had more things to consider.
If his breakthrough ends too quickly, firstly, he is not majestic enough, secondly, it is easy for his disciples to feel that the Golden Immortal is nothing more than this, and thirdly, he is afraid of being called back by Li Ping'an to continue to absorb the power of Emperor Jun's soul.
With such an opportunity, Li Dazhi felt that he had taken enough advantage of it.
The stronger his son is, the more at ease he will feel.
Inside Li Ping'an's memorial platform.
The little Yuanshen has begun to review those jade leaves, imprinting all the magical powers, secret techniques, and secrets in his memory to prevent these jade leaves from shattering later.
In Li Ping'an's view, there are three most valuable and complete secrets here:
"Golden Crow Sun Forging Technique" is the natal magical power of the Golden Crow clan. It is a practice method introduced by Emperor Junni. There are nine levels in total, Yuan Shen, and physical body practitioners. When you reach the sixth level, you can perform the 'Ling Sun Technique', which can be transformed into a temporary form.
A sun scorches a land hundreds of miles away. After cultivating to the ninth level, it can turn into a golden crow to fight with the enemy. It can turn into a sun star for a long time.
"Golden Crow Escape Technique" is Di Jun's proud work. It incorporates a lot of understanding of the Great Way of the Universe and can achieve top speed second only to the Dapeng Bird.
After all, the roc's top speed comes at the expense of something.
The "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Formation" is an ordinary and peerless formation. It has sealed the way of heaven and suppressed the twelve ancestral witches in ancient times. It is one of the most powerful formations in the world.
It's a pity that this formation requires 360 star flags.
In ancient times, Emperor Jun and Kunpeng kept mining in the sea of stars in order to refine this formation, which abruptly changed the ancient starry sky.
Li Ping'an then thought about it:
The prehistoric stars were transformed from Pangu's hair. Emperor Jun and Kunpeng almost made Pangu bald.
Even if he obtains this formation, it can only be used for practice, and it will be difficult to reproduce this formation.
Other magical powers and secret techniques are also quite good. Most of them are suitable for the practice of hundreds of races. There are also some higher value secret techniques here.
For example, "The Heavenly Emperor's Beast Control Technique" allows a lower-strength 'master' to control a stronger 'mount'.
Another example is the "Star Sutra", which is a cultivation technique developed by Emperor Jun after he realized the distribution of stars in the ancient world. It can absorb the essence of stars very efficiently. The cultivation speed is fast and the bottleneck will be very low. It is faster than most cultivation techniques of the human race.
Be perfect and subtle.
Li Ping'an didn't quite understand. Emperor Jun had been the Emperor of Heaven for so many years and had developed so many secret techniques. Why didn't he promote them to increase the strength of Heaven?
The answers to Li Ping'an's questions can be found in these jade leaves.
After sorting out the magical powers and secret techniques, Li Ping'an's eyes fell on the jade leaf that carried part of Emperor Jun's memory.
While observing the broken state of Emperor Jun's remnant soul under the golden cloud, he spied on Emperor Jun's life.
The power of his soul was growing wildly, and a great sense of satisfaction filled his heart.
This ancient emperor of heaven, who was reviled by the human race, betrayed by most of the tribes, and regarded as a lifelong enemy by the witch race, actually had many faces...
Unknowingly, another two hours passed.
The remnant soul of Emperor Jun appeared for the 1,600th time, and was subsequently chopped into pieces by the Soul-Severing Flag.
Li Ping'an's soul was meditating quietly in the corner, and a series of auspicious clouds appeared behind the soul. This was a sign that the soul was almost immortal.
After Di Jun's remnant soul was chopped into pieces, less and less of the power of the soul could be left behind.
The jade leaves in front of him no longer increased.
The remnant soul of Fangfang Emperor Jun appeared again, but this soul was extremely weak and could no longer maintain his innate body, revealing the outline of a three-legged golden crow.
Li Ping'an already understood.
This remnant soul is indeed the true remnant soul of Emperor Jun.
In the ancient battle to overthrow the heaven, when Emperor Jun died, part of his remaining soul merged into the heaven that only Emperor Jun himself could control at that time, hoping to have a chance to make a comeback.
Since then, Tiandao has been unsealed and its subsequent barbaric growth has begun.
The remnant soul of Emperor Jun and the will of the ancient heavenly gods to fight to death caused an illusion to appear within the still weak heavenly realm at that time.
There are still a large number of so-called gods in this illusion, but most of them are incomplete, defective, and have been assimilated by the illusion itself.
This is the origin of the inner heaven.
The inner heaven refers to the illusion that the gods of the ancient heaven jointly constructed before their death. This illusion affected the operation of the heaven, leading to the emergence of two 'systems', the inner and outer, of the heaven.
If Li Ping'an hadn't seen the 'memory' in this remnant soul, he would never have been able to understand this.
The real Emperor Jun died a long time ago. His will was wiped out by the Inner Heavenly Dao, and he lost his ability to think. His only obsession was to escape from the Heavenly Dao and return to the primitive world.
That's why such a strange thing happened today.
Di Jun's soul became increasingly faint.
‘In the illusion of inner heaven, are there many gift packages from the ancient gods of heaven?’
Li Ping'an opened his eyes and looked intently at the golden gray cloud above.
My heart is pounding.
He really wants to know what kind of qualitative changes his soul will undergo if it absorbs the power of those souls.
"Be still, be still."
"The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant."
"You Dijun's gift package has been of great use. As long as you break through life and death and become a golden immortal, your soul will naturally take a big step forward."
Li Pingan warned himself again and again.
Suddenly there was a mournful cry from above, and a small golden crow rushed out of the gray cloud, as if it was about to rush towards Li Pingan, but as soon as it flapped its wings, it was shattered by the crow light coming from the side.
There is no trace of the remnant soul of Emperor Jun.
The gray cloud representing the inner heaven seems to have been weakened a bit, and the stalemate between the inner and outer heaven continues.
This is Li Ping'an's spiritual platform. His spirit has absorbed the last batch of nutrients given by the remnant soul of Emperor Jun.
Li Ping'an did not dare to be careless, and carefully sensed the changes everywhere around him. The spirit-slaying flags were floating motionless under the golden gray clouds, and the spirit treasures continued to be on guard around Li Ping'an's soul.
Two more hours passed like this.
Li Ping'an has absorbed all the information left by Di Jun's remnant soul.
He knew all the secrets of the ancient heaven.
Now, he has begun to think about what he can do with these secrets and how to take advantage of this information.
An idea flashed in the back of Li Ping'an's head.
A somewhat bold plan came to mind.
"This Mo Linyuan is really strange. He is actually the tentacles extending from the Inner Heavenly Dao, and he has been assimilated by the Lord Heavenly Dao... a double-faced Heavenly Slave?"
Li Ping'an raised his eyebrows slightly.
The next plan would be perfect for this double-faced slave to carry out.
Just do it.
Li Ping'an summoned Cang Yuezhu and took out a blank painting scroll from it. The little Yuanshen began to splash ink and paint - in fact, he was imprinting the scene he saw on the paper.
A small short-haired golden crow wrapped in a fireball appears on the paper.
This is……
Taoist Lu Ya's birth photo.
Li Ping'an took the time to start meditating on the "Golden Crow Sun Forging Method". If he wanted to deceive Taoist Lu Ya later, he would also need the cooperation of this method.
'It seems that this practice method can be combined with my spiritual transformation method?'
His great understanding is quite useful.
…
The Zhuyun Sect was noisy for most of the day.
Banquets are held on every peak, and thousands of immortals celebrate.
A newly promoted golden immortal took his two wives to inspect each peak and scattered thousands of red envelopes prepared in advance.
Afterwards, Li Dazhi asked Xiao Yue and Wenrou to wait in the room. Later, they celebrated together and escaped to the underground secret room.
Yaochi was holding a book and reading out of boredom.
Li Pingan was still meditating quietly in front of the portrait of Sanqing.
Because of the traditional custom of avoiding suspicion, Li Dazhi did not dare to look at this arrogant daughter-in-law-to-be. He frowned and walked up to Li Ping'an and looked him up and down.
Li Ping'an slowly opened his eyes, three feet of golden light emerged from his eyes, and ripples appeared around him.
This is a sign that the Golden Immortal is about to be broken through.
By chance, the father and son took the most crucial step at the same time, which made Li Dazhi very happy.
Inner Heaven Dao and Di Jun are really...
Too polite.
"dad!"
Li Ping'an stood up and said with a smile: "There is a way to solve the crisis in Xizhou!"
Li Dazhi asked: "What do you want to do?"
"Dad, look."
Li Ping'an closed his eyes and opened them. The marks of a pair of three-legged golden crows appeared in his eyes. The aura around him slowly rose, becoming ethereal and hot. The unique aura of the three-legged golden crows filled the room.
Yaochi looked surprised: "What is this?"
"This is a practice method that only Dijun and his family know."
Li Ping'an blinked, his body rotated slightly, and with a puff, he transformed into the figure of Emperor Jun.
Wearing a golden robe and with long hair disheveled, he is no different from the ancient Emperor of Heaven in Yaochi's impression, but his aura is too weak.
Li Dazhi frowned and said, "If I hadn't known that Emperor Jun's remnant soul was constantly being shattered, I would have thought that you had been taken away."
"How is it possible?" Li Ping'an shook his head. "The remnant soul is the mark of being assimilated by Heaven. It has no independent consciousness and only has the obsession to escape from Heaven."
Yaochi seemed to understand, and his eyes were full of brilliance.
Li Ping'an said sternly: "Without further delay, I will summon Mo Linyuan right now, and then use the identity of Emperor Jun to try to see if I can deceive Lu Ya, and see if I can trick Lu Ya away."
"Okay, be careful."
Li Dazhi sighed softly:
"Now that I have entered the realm of immortality, I also need to retreat for a while to break through. Do you need to teach me the skills?"
"No, Dad, what I lack now is the understanding of life and death," Li Ping'an wondered, "Dad, do you have such an understanding?"
"Of course," Li Dazhi blinked, "Before we walked out of the mountains and forests of my hometown, I had already planned my own tomb. I will bury it with your mother."
Li Ping'an was speechless.
His father's life experience is also incomparable to him.
However, this is the last step.
"Yaochi will you come with me?"
"How can I not go and take a look at such an interesting thing?"
Yaochi stood up and bowed slightly to Li Dazhi:
"Congratulations to the Great Fortune Immortal for entering the realm of immortality. Yaochi will send you some gifts later.
"As long as I am with you, Your Majesty, you don't have to worry."
Li Dazhi smiled and said: "Go ahead, let's get along well!"
Yaochi Su gently shook his hand and fled straight away with Li Ping'an.
Li Ping'an thought for a while, took out some rouge and gouache that he was ready to give to his master and Ning Ning, and began to paint himself with the makeup of a heavenly emperor.
