This life of mine is like walking on thin ice

Chapter 13: Rapid Advancement
As the gods outside the domain stopped their attacks, the ancestor Shenxiao also withdrew his magic power and returned to Sanxiao Peak.

"I will be in seclusion for a while, re-refining the Heaven Monitoring Mirror and patching up the existing loopholes. Please try not to disturb me during this time."

After Patriarch Shenxiao finished speaking, his figure disappeared.

The four hall masters looked at each other, and finally sighed.

This time, the ancestor Shenxiao personally sacrificed the Sky Monitoring Mirror to clear the universe, eliminate the hidden problems in the Sanxiao Palace, and prevent possible future troubles. It was a great joyous event.

But the four hall masters were not happy.

Ancestor Shenxiao doesn't have much time left.

The path of cultivation is divided into the Qi Refining Realm, Yuandan Realm, Shackles Realm, Dragon Transformation Realm, Purple Mansion Realm, Dongtian Realm, Daotai Realm, Tiangong Realm, Tianting Realm, and the final Divine Realm.

There are thirty-six palaces in Sanxiao Palace, and the people in charge are called palace masters, all of whom are great masters in the cave heaven realm.

The Daotai realm is a giant, the Tiangong realm is a king, and they are all elders in the Sanxiao Palace.

The Tianting realm is the realm of an emperor. In the Sanxiao Palace, one can be the palace master. If one can cultivate to the highest realm of the emperor, he can be called the emperor of heaven.

The Divine Realm is the strongest in this world, dominating the whole world, with overwhelming power, like an abyss or a prison.

A strong person in the divine realm can live for 50,000 years.

Sixty thousand years ago, at the end of the Middle Ages, three gods were born among the human race, namely Zixiao, Lingxiao and Shenxiao, collectively known as the Three Xiaos.

The Three Xiaos led the Ten Emperors of the human race to fight for the rise of their race. They wanted to get rid of the slavery of various races and no longer be their food. However, they encountered great resistance and a shocking war broke out.

After three hundred years of struggle, the human race drove all other races out of the Central Region and occupied this vast land, which was half successful.

The Sanxiao founded the Sanxiao Palace, a holy place for the human race, and frantically recruited humans from all regions, even at the risk of starting a large war. In the end, they took back a quarter of the humans from outside the regions and were unable to continue.

Because the Three Sisters have suffered increasingly severe damage in the continuous wars, they must heal their wounds and restore their strength so that the human race can recuperate.

Because Zixiao, Lingxiao and Shenxiao had their origins injured in the Rise War, and they had to forcibly suppress their injuries in order to fight to lead the human race from outside the domain, their origins were severely damaged and could not be restored.

Fifty thousand years ago, alien gods invaded. The Three Sisters fought back and slew the gods. Zixiao was the most seriously injured and his old injuries recurred, so he died.

Before his death, Zixiao divided the remaining divine origin into two and gave them to Lingxiao and Shenxiao to help them recover from their injuries.

Forty thousand years ago, alien gods invaded. Ling Xiao and Shen Xiao fought against them and killed them. Ling Xiao was seriously injured and his old injuries relapsed, so he died.

Before his death, Ling Xiao gifted the origin of the divine realm to Shen Xiao, which not only restored Shen Xiao's origin, but also made it further.

In the following tens of thousands of years, alien gods would invade the Central Region from time to time, and it was the ancestor Shenxiao who went into battle and killed several alien gods.

When the life span of Patriarch Shenxiao was coming to an end, he sealed himself in the Divine Source, so that the loss of his life span was very slow. If the human race was in trouble, he could be born again.

The Divine Source can be sealed at most three times. Ancestor Shenxiao has appeared twice in the middle, and this time is the third time. He cannot re-seal the Divine Source.

The life span of the Shenxiao Patriarch is less than three hundred years. If he encounters a war in the middle of his life and his origin is damaged, his life span will be further shortened.

Therefore, the four hall masters were very worried.

If there were no powerful gods in the world, the human race would be in danger!

But they had to invite the Ancestor Shenxiao to come out, otherwise they would not be able to eliminate the powerful aliens lurking in the Sanxiao Palace, which could bring a catastrophe to the Sanxiao Palace at any time, and it would be too late for the Ancestor Shenxiao to come out by then.

“Senior Brother Feng, how far are you from reaching the divine realm?” Ling Xiao Palace Master Ling Wuji asked.

The Lords of Zixiao Palace and Shenxiao Palace also looked at the Lord of Sanxiao Palace, Feng Tianming.

Feng Tianming has the highest level of cultivation among the four of them, and therefore can become the head of the Sanxiao Palace. As far as they know, Feng Tianming has already achieved the ultimate realm of the imperial way a few years ago.

"Very far." Headmaster Feng Tianming sighed.

The highest realm of the imperial way seems to be only one step away from the divine realm, but only when one reaches this realm will one realize that there is still a long way to go.

If there were no corresponding ancient books in the Sanxiao Palace, he would not even have any clues. "Brother, when the ancestor comes out of retreat, you can ask for his advice more often, and maybe you will break through." The master of Zixiao Palace said.

Headmaster Feng Tianming nodded.

“In addition to our brother who is the head teacher, we also need to vigorously cultivate geniuses who have the potential to become gods. We must cultivate a god before our ancestor passes away.” The Lord of Shenxiao Palace said in a deep voice.

"Among the countless disciples of my Sanxiao Palace, only three have the potential to become gods: Yuan Weiyang, Lu Xuan, and Bai Yuxian."

"Yuan Weiyang has the highest level of cultivation, having already reached the ninth level of Daotai Realm, and is about to reach the ultimate realm; Lu Xuan has the greatest potential, but he and Bai Yuxian have just entered the door."

The Lord of Lingxiao Palace spoke with a heavy tone.

The Chapter on Sensing Qi of Heaven and Earth was jointly created by the Three Heavenly Ancestors. It is most suitable for humans to practice Qi cultivation and enter the Tao. If one can break through the Qi Refining Stage within one day, it means that he has the potential to become a god and is crowned as a peerless genius.

But how difficult is it to become a god in less than three hundred years?

At the end of the Middle Ages, it took the Three Sky Patriarchs seven or eight hundred years to become gods.

Lu Xuan, Yuan Weiyang and Bai Yuxian all have the potential to become gods, but that does not mean they can definitely achieve that level of godhood.

Over the past sixty thousand years, there have been twenty or thirty disciples in the Sanxiao Palace with the potential to become gods, but none of them has become a god.

Either they died accidentally along the way, or died in battle after becoming the head of the Sanxiao Palace, or they were unable to comprehend the mysteries of becoming a god and were trapped and died before the divine realm.

At present, the people with the most hope of becoming gods in Sanxiao Palace are, first, the head monk Feng Tianming, second, Yuan Weiyang, third, Lu Xuan, and fourth, Bai Yuxian.

"If we can find the magic medicine to prolong our ancestor's life," the Purple Sky Palace Master said thoughtfully.

Ancestor Shenxiao has taken the magic medicine to prolong his life. If he takes it again, the effect will be greatly reduced, but it will definitely prolong his life by several hundred years.

But how difficult is it to find a magic medicine to prolong life?
It’s not much easier than becoming a god.

Outer gate, Feiyun Peak.

After returning to the courtyard, Lu Xuan went into seclusion again.

Now all the alien spies in the Sanxiao Palace have been eliminated, so there is no need to worry about the threat to their lives.

It took Lu Xuan half a day to comprehend the Great Breath Sealing Technique. He tested the effect and found that it was really good.

Then, Lu Xuan continued to comprehend the Great Freedom Heavenly Sword. After four or five days, he finally succeeded in getting started.

"What should I refine to become sword energy?" Lu Xuan pondered.

He doesn't have any Yin-Yang and Five Elements treasures to refine sword energy now, and refining the space and time of heaven and earth into sword energy is still a long way off for him.

Lu Xuan searched in the Qiankun Ring and finally locked onto a piece of metal fragment.

This was given to Lu Xuan by Li Hai, the outer sect deacon disciple, when they were in Sanxiao City. It might be a fragment of some magical weapon.

After thinking about it, Lu Xuan put the metal fragments back and decided not to rush.

"It's time to improve my cultivation." Lu Xuan looked at the panel.

[Attribute points: 10 point]

[Purple Sky Enlightenment Sutra: First level 21% (can be improved)]

"Fill up the Purple Sky Enlightenment Sutra for me."

Lu Xuan's mind moved slightly, and ten attribute points were instantly added to the Zixiao Zhengdao Sutra.

The next moment, the Zixiao Zhengdao Sutra began to circulate wildly in Lu Xuan's body. Countless vital energies from heaven and earth swarmed in, being continuously refined into magic power and stored in his ever-expanding dantian.

In just four or five breaths, Lu Xuan's aura soared and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds.
