Begin the path of immortality from mortals

"Thank you, Brother Lu, for giving me the secret technique of puppetry!"

After taking the jade slip that Lu Tiandu shot to him, Liu Qing was immediately surprised and expressed his gratitude as soon as he read the secret techniques inside.

"Fairy Liu, you are welcome. I hope this secret technique can help you reach a higher level in the art of puppetry!"

Lu Tian waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

The jade slip he had just given to Liu Qing recorded one king-level spirit puppet secret technique and three monarch-level spirit puppet secret techniques of the Earth Spirit Clan. As long as he could comprehend these four puppet secret techniques and combine them with what he had learned before, he would definitely benefit greatly in the art of puppetry in the future.

According to Lu Tiandu's idea, at the next Yao Chi Palace auction held once every hundred years, he intends to release some of the Earth Spirit Clan's low- and medium-level puppet secrets, thereby indirectly promoting the development of the human race's spirit puppet secrets.

If in the next thousand years the cultivators of the human race who are interested in the secret art of spirit puppets can refine a large number of marquis-level and lord-level (Spirit Transformation and Void Refining) spirit puppets, then when the demonic calamity breaks out in the future, ordinary cultivators will have a better chance of survival.

As for the king-level spirit puppet and the only purple emperor puppet, he would naturally not share such high-level secret techniques except with those close to him.

This time he gave Liu Qing the high-level puppet secret technique, not only because he had a great talent in puppetry, but also because this girl made a good impression on him, so they formed a good relationship!
"Congratulations, Sister Liu!"

Seeing Liu Qing's surprised expression, Ye Xian smiled and congratulated him. Then she turned her head to look at Lu Tiandu, leaned forward, and said with a smile:

"It seems that Brother Tiandu has a great opportunity to go to the wilderness this time! But Brother Tiandu, you gave Sister Liu a gift, but you didn't even show any appreciation to her. This is a bit unreasonable!"

As she said this, she winked playfully, as if to say, "Why don't you express yourself, kid?"

"Pfft!"

Seeing this scene, Min Yan and Liu Qing on the other side both chuckled, and the two women looked at Lu Tiandu while laughing.

"Sister, how can you say that without your sister?"

Lu Tiandu laughed, "This time when I went to the wilderness, I got several kinds of true spirit-level magical powers. Now I have quite a few bird-type true spirit-level magical powers. Why don't I give one to you later? What do you think?"

"Really?"

Ye Xian was just teasing Lu Tiandu at first, but now that she saw that Lu Tiandu didn't seem to be joking, she immediately showed an interested look, "Tell me if there is any magical power that is suitable for my sister!"

As for Liu Qing, he was secretly surprised to hear that Lu Tiandu had obtained several true spirit-level magical powers at once.

After she came out of seclusion, she naturally learned about Lu Tiandu's experiences over the years, especially the several battles between Lu Tiandu and high-level cultivators of alien races.

It has long been no secret that Lu Tiandu has cultivated the true spirit level of thunder magic.

But when she heard that Lu Tian casually gave this kind of top-notch magical power in the world to others, she was still secretly surprised.

After all, for any cultivator who has achieved the fusion stage, the true spirit-level magical powers are basically kept secret after they are obtained, and they are secretly cultivated as a trump card. They rarely mention it with others, let alone share such magical powers with others.

"Either Brother Lu has amazing luck and the number of True Spirit-level magical powers in his hands exceeds my expectations, or his relationship with Sister Ye cannot be explained so simply!"

For a moment, this thought flashed through Liu Qing's mind.

"Which one do you want to learn?"

Lu Tiandu listed nine kinds of flying spirit magical powers in one breath, including "Five-Colored Divine Light", "Nine-Sky Underworld Thunder", "Soul-Destroying Divine Light", "Bifang Divine Fire", "A Brighter Future", "Golden Crow Divine Flame", and "Suzaku True Flame", and asked with a smile.

"This...it seems that the opportunity you got this time is really great, Tiandu!"

Ye Xian was also surprised to hear Lu Tiandu list out nine kinds of bird-related true spirit-level magical powers in one breath.

She learned from Ye Yu that Lu Tiandu had already cultivated the two avian spiritual powers, the Jiuxiao Divine Wind and the Cangyuan Green Wind, but apart from these two, it was the first time she had heard of the other seven powers.

Moreover, Lu Tiandu also had the Nirvana Holy Fire, the Fire Phoenix magical power that she had asked Ye Yu to give her. In this way, it seemed that he had taken out all the avian true spirit-level magical powers in his hands for her to choose from.

"Tsk tsk, one out of nine, Tiandu is really nice!"

Ye Xian suddenly caught a glimpse of Liu Qing's slightly fiery eyes opposite her, and couldn't help feeling a little complacent.

"I have already cultivated the Ye family's Nirvana Holy Fire, and I have also cultivated the Nirvana Divine Thunder. As a result, I don't have more energy to cultivate the other two True Spirit-level magical powers of fire and thunder, which are of little use to me..."

After a pause, Ye Xian's graceful and moving voice rang out, "As for the wind attribute magical power, the Phoenix blood I inherited also has some talent in the way of space, and my short-distance escape speed is not slow. In this case, Tiandu, do you think I should choose 'Pengcheng Wanli', 'Destroying Soul Divine Light', or 'Five-Colored Divine Light'?"

Before Lu Tiandu could say anything, Liu Qing sighed with envy:
"I didn't expect that my sister has actually cultivated two True Spirit-level magical powers. I'm really envious of her!"

"I wonder how many True Spiritual-level magical powers Brother Lu has cultivated?"

Liu Qing then looked at Lu Tiandu.

Facing Liu Qing's burning gaze, Lu Tiandu smiled and said:
"To be honest with you, Fairy Liu, I have already mastered six True Spirit-level magical powers!"

"What? How is this possible?"

Liu Qing stood up suddenly and stared at Lu Tiandu with an expression of disbelief.

It was a great fortune for an ordinary fusion cultivator to cultivate a true spirit-level magical power. She had long heard that Ye Xian possessed the true blood of the Heavenly Phoenix and could cultivate the Holy Fire of Nirvana. Therefore, she was so surprised to hear that Ye Xian had also cultivated the Divine Thunder of Nirvana.

But how old is Lu Tian? He has only been in the spirit world for more than 300 years, but he has cultivated six true spirit-level magical powers. How is this possible?

“Sister Liu, don’t be surprised. In fact, I knew decades ago that Tiandu had mastered five True Spirit-level magical powers!”

Ye Xian smiled.

What she didn't say was that her Nirvana Divine Thunder was also cultivated with the support of Lu Tiandu, and when her Nirvana Divine Thunder is perfected in a few decades, she will give half of the origin of her magical power to Lu Tiandu, and by then Lu Tiandu will have gained another True Spirit-level magical power.

As for Min Yan, who knew Lu Tiandu's situation very well, she just smiled and watched some subtle changes in Ye Xian and Liu Qing without saying much.

"I didn't see Ye Xian being so close to Lu Lang in Xuanzhen Palace last time. It's really strange!"

A strange look flashed across Min Yan's eyes, and she seemed to be thinking about something.

"This...it seems that the outside world's understanding of you, Brother Lu, is just the tip of the iceberg!"

Liu Qing looked around at everyone and sighed softly.

He casually took out nine true spirit-level magical powers and cultivated six of them by himself… Since when did true spirit-level magical powers become commonplace?
Faced with Lu Tiandu, a genius whose depth is hard to understand, Liu Qing felt complicated.

Obviously, all these things are not only related to the mysterious Mahayana monk behind Lu Tiandu, but also show how amazing Lu Tiandu's opportunity is!
Moreover, Min Yan, who had been looking at them with a smile on his face, seemed to have cultivated some kind of true spirit-level flame, and his combat power was astonishing among those of the same level.

When he thought of this, Liu Qing felt uncomfortable.

Somehow, the joy of receiving the inheritance of the fusion-level puppet disappeared.

“Although magical powers are good, Fairy Liu can still easily cultivate them if she has the opportunity.”

Seeing that Liu Qing was full of envy at Ye Xian's words, Lu Tian couldn't help but smile. He turned to look at Ye Xian and returned to the previous topic:

"This 'Pengcheng Wanli' is indeed a top-level magical power in terms of speed, but this time I was lucky enough to comprehend a magical power that can teleport thousands of miles with the help of thunder magic. When Sister Xian's thunder magic power is perfected, why don't I teach her this magical power then?"

"In this case, the speed ability of 'Pengcheng Wanli' can also be ruled out. As for the remaining one, which is mainly aimed at attacking the soul, and the other one focuses on sealing, does Sister Xian have any choice?"

"Tiandu, you are indeed extraordinary!"

After listening to Lu Tiandu's introduction to the 'Lightning Array', Ye Xian once again began to admire it, with the smile on her face becoming more intense.

Now, when her Nirvana Thunder is fully developed, she will also have a trump card to show for mid-range flight:

"In that case, I will choose the 'Soul-Destroying Divine Light', the innate magical power of the True Spirit Nine-Headed Bird! Compared to trapping the enemy, with the help of this magical power, plus the two offensive magical powers I have cultivated, I can directly kill the opponent with force, and there is no need to seal the enemy!"

"Very good, I'll do as you say, sister!"

Lu Tiandu also nodded in agreement. "Although I have never practiced this 'Soul-Destroying Divine Light', I remember the practice experience of a Mahayana cultivator. So, if you open your sea of ​​consciousness, I will teach you this magical power with the secret technique of 'Divine Thought Transmission', okay?"

"What? Brother Tiandu, you can actually use such a secret technique?"

This time, even Ye Xian, who had known Lu Tian quite well, was shocked.

She was once Mo Jianli's registered disciple, so she naturally had a good understanding of this secret technique. Since Lu Tiandu dared to say so, it was obvious that his spiritual cultivation had reached the level of a Mahayana cultivator.

"A Mahayana-level spiritual cultivation! After not seeing him for decades, Tiandu has given me so many surprises!"

At this moment, Ye Xian looked at Lu Tian and felt more and more strange in her heart.

"It's just some luck for me!"

Lu Tiandu smiled faintly, "Okay, sister, just relax!"

"Okay, Tiandu, you cast the spell!"

Lu Tiandu flipped his ten fingers, and while the magic spells in his hands changed, a low spell came out of his mouth. Then the eye between his eyebrows suddenly opened, and a ball of faint light instantly sank into Ye Xian's eyebrows.

When Lu Tiandu was getting along with Lin Luan before, he took the time to check the nine-headed bird corpse that Youluo had suppressed.

According to the memories in the soul of this nine-headed bird, it was an ancestor of the Jiuyue tribe who was in the middle stage of the Mahayana stage more than ten thousand years ago. He was older than Marquis Jin Yan.

Later, he failed to advance to the late stage of Mahayana, and was not sure he could survive the next great calamity, so he practiced the way of corpses using some secret techniques he accidentally obtained in the wilderness, preparing to use the way of corpses to once again impact the realm of calamity.

Of course, the premise for his confidence in being able to advance to the Mahayana stage through the corpse path is naturally the numerous true spirit yin energies belonging to the Feiling Clan on the Black Nether Peninsula.

The prerequisite for practicing this secret art of corpse cultivation is to abandon part of the soul and enter reincarnation, so as to deceive the perception of heaven and earth and gain an alternative new life.

In addition, he had to disperse the previous alien true essence to strengthen his body, making it stronger so that it could withstand the subsequent secret method of corpse body refining.

Therefore, the cultivation level of his soul before being suppressed was consistent with the negative true energy in his body. It was only in the late stage of fusion, and was not the Mahayana stage soul that Lu Tiandu had thought before.

However, this did not affect his various cultivation memories from his early years. Lu Tiandu learned about the experience of practicing the Soul-Destroying Divine Light by looking through his memories.

Of course, his corpse after he switched to corpse cultivation is still the corpse of his original body in the Mahayana period, which does not affect Lu Tiandu's use of it to refine the Purple Emperor puppet.

As for his soul, similar to Jin Yanhou's soul, Lu Tiandu has temporarily sealed it after obtaining various magical skills of the Feiling clan as well as other personal collected secret skills, elixir recipes and other cultivation knowledge.

When his body cultivation progresses further, he can refine it into soul crystals to enhance his soul.

After meeting Ye Xian this time, Lu Tian had made new arrangements for her, so he didn't mind using his telepathic power to transmit his magic to her.

"This is a bottle of Nine-headed Bird's real blood. Sister Xian will use this real blood to learn this magical power in the future!"

Lu Tiandu watched Ye Xian slowly open her eyes, then handed her another bottle of real blood.

"This time, my sister got a great deal!"

Ye Xian giggled and put it away without hesitation.

Originally, she came to Lu Tiandu to reminisce about the past after hearing that Lu Tiandu had returned, but after meeting each other again, she felt inexplicably happy.

Now Lu Tiandu seemed to be extremely close to her, giving her magical powers and real blood, which made her feel even more strange.

For some reason, she extremely enjoyed Lu Tiandu's intimate attitude towards her.

"This time, I am the one who has to congratulate Sister Ye!"

Liu Qing looked at this scene, suppressed the envy and bitterness in his heart, and congratulated with a smile.

At this moment, she knew that Lu Tiandu must have some kind of intimate relationship with Ye Xian that she didn't understand.

But when she thought of the thoughts she had when she came to see Lu Tian before, she began to hesitate.

"Originally, I thought there weren't many female cultivators around him, but now that I've seen the others, I don't know. Sister Ye and Sister Min must have a very close relationship with him..."

Thinking that with her own cultivation level at the middle stage of fusion, she could not even rank among the top few among Lu Tiandu's many female confidantes, Liu Qing sighed quietly in her heart.

"What's there to congratulate? Sister Liu, if you are determined, are you afraid that the heavens won't teach you magical powers?"

Ye Xian suddenly smiled meaningfully, as if she was hinting at something, "Tiandu, what do you think?"

"Hmm? If Sister Liu wants to learn magical powers, how can I refuse?"

Lu Tiandu seemed a little surprised by Ye Xian's sudden move to match him and Liu Qing, but he quickly reacted and even changed his address very skillfully, "I have admired Sister Liu for a long time!"

"what!"

All of a sudden, Liu Qing jumped up, her cheeks flushed, and her pretty face became hot.

She had previously expressed her intention to make friends with Lu Tiandu in front of Min Yan and Ye Xian, but facing Lu Tiandu's burning gaze at this moment, she suddenly became flustered.

"Well... I seem to have something else to do. I'll take my leave now. I'll entertain Brother Lu another day!"

The next moment, facing the gazes of Lu Tiandu and the other two, Liu Qing seemed to flee in panic and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"I'll go see Sister Liu off!"

Min Yan giggled, and her figure flashed and went out to see the guest off.

"Sister Xian, you really gave me a surprise!"

Lu Tiandu looked at the pretty lady who was only separated by a jade table and was laughing, with an expression as if he was here to praise her, and he couldn't help laughing.

"Humph, I don't believe that you, a playboy, don't have any feelings for Sister Liu?"

Ye Xian giggled and gave Lu Tiandu a cold look.

How could she not know that Lu Tiandu was a playboy!
At this moment, Lu Tiandu neither admitted nor denied it, but just looked at Ye Xian with a smile.

"What are you doing?"

Ye Xian stared at Lu Tiandu with her bright eyes, showing a look of not giving in.

"Actually, compared to Fairy Liu, I am more..."

Lu Tiandu suddenly stopped talking and leaned forward, "Sister Xian, come closer, I have something to tell you!"

Ye Xian's heart suddenly began to panic, and her pretty face suddenly turned red, looking extremely shy.

Originally, her whole body was leaning towards Lu Tiandu, but now she was getting closer...

"What are you doing so mysterious?"

Ye Xian muttered something, but still obediently moved closer to Lu Tiandu.

The hot breath hit their faces, and they were almost sticking to each other. The strange thing was that they both seemed to pretend that nothing was wrong.

At this moment, Ye Xian's oval face became hotter and hotter, and her heart began to pound.

Her eyes were slightly narrowed, her soft red lips slightly parted, and her breathing seemed a little hurried, showing both anticipation and nervousness.

At this moment, Lu Tiandu suddenly whispered:
"Sister Xian, are you interested in becoming the Holy Emperor?"

"Ok?"

The words that came to her ears did not seem to be what she expected, and Ye Xian felt disappointed all of a sudden.

Just as she was about to open her eyes, Lu Tiandu suddenly chuckled, and with a slight movement, he kissed her two soft and fragrant lips...

"This villain is still so bold!"

This thought flashed through Ye Xian's mind for a moment, and the next moment, she did not move away, but responded awkwardly. (End of this chapter)
