I'm in Shrouding the Heavens Practicing Eternal Life

– – – – – –

The Ziwei Star, its name meaning "Purple Tenuity Star," was enshrouded in purple mist that permeated through layers of void.

The Naihe Bridge, like a stone dragon, shuttled through layers of space, but as it approached the Ziwei Star, even the nearby void and spatial interlayers were filled with purple energy.

The Naihe Bridge detached from the spatial passage outside the Ziwei Star. A large purple star appeared before them, quiet, elegant, gorgeous, noble… all sorts of beautiful auras could be used to describe this planet.

This was an incredible thing. Gu Manlu cultivated the Xi Huang Jing (Scripture of the Western Emperor). The Western Emperor possessed a natural Dao body. Even if those who cultivated her scriptures did not have this physique, with time and increasing cultivation, they could gain some of the profound mysteries of merging with the Dao and sense the various auras between heaven and earth.

However, the aura of the Ziwei Star was like a piece of amethyst, possessing a static beauty. Unlike the Big Dipper Star that connected to the outer realms with vigorous ambition, or the Eternal Star Domain with its undisguised greed and gaping maw, the Ziwei Star seemed to have been paused, its impurities cleared away. All the killing intent and baleful aura had disappeared, or rather, been hidden. At least, Gu Manlu didn't sense them.

Heaven and earth were clear, the rivers and mountains beautiful. A palace drifted over like flowing clouds, and purple energy transformed into crystal stairs, extending to their feet, accompanied by clouds and mist.

"This is what I refined after I came to the Ziwei Star," Luo Mo explained before taking Gu Manlu's hand and walking towards the palace.

The palace shone brightly because its master had returned. The purple glow was dazzling, and the white light was gentle. The Hongmeng Purple Energy Seed and the Life Immortal Seed, two invincible seeds, began to operate with their own power.

Surrounded by clouds and mist, this place was like an immortal abode. Moreover, these white mists were filled with life essence beneficial to cultivators. Even a master of a holy land like Gu Manlu could feel her cultivation rising with a single breath. If one could live here, even someone with poor talent could smoothly cultivate to the Sendai realm, right?

What kind of immortal paradise was this?

Gu Manlu noticed the anomaly and looked down from the purple crystal stairs. She saw purple creatures churning in the sea of clouds: true dragons, divine phoenixes, white tigers, black tortoises, holy apes, divine silkworms, all kinds of rare and exotic beasts were present. There were even humans formed from purple energy, their pupils emitting golden and black light, as if they contained the sun and moon.

"These are the Purple Energy Races I created while researching the Great Dao. From now on, you are the mistress here. On this Ziwei Star, they are at your beck and call."

Purple energy initially enveloped the entire Ziwei Star, but Luo Mo had now collected it, transforming it into a continent floating in the sky.

"In the future, when we relocate, the Yaochi Mountain Gate will be located on the Sky Continent, without needing to be on the ground."

Luo Mo suddenly thought of something. "It seems I haven't told you about the old site of Yaochi yet?"

"Old site?"

Gu Manlu withdrew her gaze from surveying the Sky Continent and the palace. The continent was high in the sky, and the palace was even higher. The continent was covered in a sea of purple energy, and the palace contained even more surging life essence. Such an environment was even better than Yaochi.

After all, it was the power of two immortal seeds.

Gu Manlu couldn't be dissatisfied with such a gift, but the thought that other women would come here in the future diluted her joy.

"Yes, the old site. I once explored it and found some good things there."

Gu Manlu pondered, "But it seems that nothing remains of Yaochi's old site. The Yaochi Secret Records state that a strange disaster caused Yaochi to lose most of its foundation. In the end, the Western Emperor's trump card suppressed it. Apart from an old pond and corpses, there shouldn't be anything else left, right?"

Luo Mo reminded her, "You didn't leave anything behind, but what about the Western Emperor's son?"

"The Great Emperor Wu Shi?"

Gu Manlu exclaimed in surprise. This was a top secret within Yaochi, known only to a few people like the Queen Mother and the Holy Maiden.

The world says that descendants of emperors and emperors cannot prove the Dao, and there is no precedent, but in fact, there is. Yaochi had two emperors: first, the Western Emperor proved the Dao, and later, the Great Emperor Wu Shi attained the Dao, breaking the shackles of bloodline.

"What did the Great Emperor leave behind?"

"A bottle of refined essence blood. I used a drop of blood and secret techniques to cultivate a Congenital Holy Body Dao Embryo."

Congenital Holy Body Dao Embryo!

"The sun and moon cultivate together to form chaos, plus the Congenital Holy Body Dao Embryo…"

A Chaotic Body plus a Congenital Holy Body Dao Embryo. With such a super physique, plus the luck of the ancient races and the human race of the Big Dipper Star, that must be the reason why Luo Mo's cultivation speed is so fast that there is no one like him before or after, right?

Cultivating for more than twenty years, to the fourth level of the Great Sage. Even the Great Emperor Wu Shi in his prime could not match this cultivation speed.

"My scriptures can transform into various physiques, not limited to the human race. I can also transform into the physiques of the ancient races, and even Holy Spirits. Look at the purple creatures below, they are all my insights from cultivation."

Purple Qi Immortal Gold Holy Spirit, Purple Qi Divine Jade Holy Spirit, Purple Qi Stone Man Holy Spirit, Purple Qi Dragon Horse Holy Spirit, etc., slightly glowed in response to Luo Mo's words, identifying themselves.

"So, you infiltrated the demon race, and even the ancient races, just to study their physiques?"

"No, the order is wrong," Luo Mo explained. "To be precise, it was because I infiltrated various forces, explored various secret realms, and saw too many scriptures and special physiques that I later had the idea of transforming into all kinds of physiques."

This was the correct causal relationship.

"At the old site of Yaochi, there is also the source of the strange disaster that erupted in the past, which is the corpse of a Great Completion Holy Body, that is, the Dao partner of the Western Emperor, the biological father of the Great Emperor Wu Shi."

Everyone knows that the Holy Body is cursed. Especially now that the Sun-Moon Dynasty is officially confronting the Underworld head-on, the news is spreading rapidly in the Great Luo Realm. The secrets of the past have now become common knowledge.

"And what stopped him was the Western Emperor's corpse. When I went to the old site of Yaochi, I saw all of this and obtained a bottle of Congenital Holy Body Dao Embryo essence blood from it."

The resources Luo Mo used for his cultivation were unimaginable to others.

"The water quality at the old site of Yaochi is very good. Although there was a disturbance, I think we can move it to the Ziwei Star together. I will take good care of the Western Emperor and the Great Completion Holy Body, and the Underworld will not be able to cause trouble. The old pond should also be reopened. The strange aura has already been dispelled by me."

Gu Manlu nodded in agreement, "That's good too. Yaochi moved away from the Big Dipper Star and came to Ziwei. We must not leave the Western Emperor and the Great Completion Holy Body's corpses on the Big Dipper Star, such a dangerous environment, in case the dark turmoil destroys the old site in the future…"

After all, they were the founding ancestors of their Yaochi, and it was impossible for them to leave their remains in such a dangerous environment as the Big Dipper Star, knowing that the dark turmoil was coming.

It was good to move to the Ziwei Star and be with their Yaochi.

Moreover, with Luo Mo suppressing it, the old site of Yaochi could once again become the mountain gate. After all, the predecessors of Yaochi moved Yaochi out in the past, separating a water vein, but the current Yaochi's water quality is indeed not as good as the old pond's, and there is an obvious decline.

Luo Mo then said, "Since we're talking about the Great Emperor Wu Shi, I'll introduce a senior to you."

"This is the Wu Shi Bell, the Great Emperor Wu Shi's imperial weapon," Luo Mo introduced.

A blurry figure shrouded in chaotic energy walked out of the bell. The Wu Shi Bell's spirit said upon seeing Gu Manlu, "You cultivate the Xi Huang Jing? Are you a disciple of Yaochi?"

"She is the current Holy Land Master of Yaochi," Luo Mo paused, then said,

"Also my Dao partner."

Dao partner?

The Wu Shi Bell's spirit was very happy, "Good, good, good. The Great Emperor's successor and the disciple of Yaochi have become Dao partners. Good, ah, too good. This is a match made in heaven,"

The Wu Shi Bell suddenly remembered something, which was that it didn't seem to have any greeting gift.

As a senior, that wouldn't be very good.

Last time, I was too rushed when saving Luo Mo, and I haven't returned to Zishan until now. He doesn't have much on him. If he were still in Zishan, he would definitely pluck those few medicine kings from the Wu Shi Dao Platform as a greeting gift, but now we are on Ziwei Star!

Fortunately, Luo Mo helped him out, after all, Luo Mo doesn't need anything from him anymore.

"Gu Manlu greets Senior."

Compared to seeing the Wu Shi Bell, the imperial weapon of the Wu Shi Great Emperor, Gu Manlu actually cared more about Luo Mo's address just now.

"Senior Wu Shi Bell, we plan to move Yaochi to Ziwei Star, along with the remains of the West Emperor and the Great Completion Holy Body. We also plan to attack the Underworld in the future. My Source Heaven Sect is skilled in Source Arts and has long been infected with curses. This battle is inevitable, either me or them. And this Ziwei Star will be our great rear base in the future, so I will have to trouble Senior to suppress it."

Luo Mo meant to leave the Wu Shi Bell on Ziwei Star to guard a pure land that no one could attack.

"That's naturally not a problem, but do you have confidence in attacking the Underworld? Even the Great Emperor couldn't eradicate this malignant tumor back then."

The Wu Shi Great Emperor also wanted to eradicate the Underworld back then, but they were too cautious and hid directly, not showing their faces. Later, Wu Shi's attention was attracted by the Undying Heavenly Emperor, so he didn't have time to find trouble with the Underworld until his lifespan was about to end and he left this universe to enter a strange world with a small amount of longevity substance.

Luo Mo was very confident, "In just a few more years, I will be able to suppress even the Supreme."

The Wu Shi Bell was very confident in Luo Mo's cultivation speed and combat power, and he thought that the few years Luo Mo said were actually hundreds of years, so he didn't refute it, but just said: "The most troublesome thing about the Underworld is that they are good at hiding. If they are determined to isolate themselves from the world and hide in the chaos, they cannot be found at all."

Chaos can isolate the detection and calculation of the Great Emperor. Opening up chaos is a relatively laborious task for the Great Emperor, and very few ancient emperors would do it. They usually open up some secret worlds in the chaos as a retreat for their descendants.

The universe is already not small, and the chaos that envelops it is even larger without boundaries. If the Underworld drills into it and avoids the world for tens of thousands of years, no one can do anything about it.

"Don't worry about this, I am best at infiltrating enemy organizations," Luo Mo said proudly.

Gu Manlu smiled without saying a word.

This is indeed Luo Mo's strength. The infiltration work on Beidou has reached the position of the top leader in both Yaoguang and the ancient clan. This ability is also unparalleled throughout the ages.

The Wu Shi Bell looked at the two people smiling in tacit understanding, and felt like he was a single dog who had been kicked.

Forget it, I'd better go back and find Brother Zhenling. It's really comfortable soaking in his Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountain Immortal Pool. During this time, the Wu Shi Bell has been soaking in it, enjoying the nourishment of the Immortal Pool.

A Zhenling and a Qiling quickly became friends after they met.

"It's good if you have confidence. I will sit in Ziwei Star from now on to ensure the safety of this place."

After the Wu Shi Bell finished speaking, he immediately returned to the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountain in the cave and fell into the Immortal Pool with a plop.

This Immortal Pool was originally used to put the Chengxian Cauldron. Although it was broken by a slap from Ruthless, and the Immortal Pool Divine Liquid was later dissipated, turning into heaven and earth vitality to return to the earth, Luo Mo obtained it in a short period of time. The Hongmeng Purple Qi neutralized the Seed of Life, and the countless stars in the cave provided endless vitality to the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountain.

Now, on the top of the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountain, the dragon heads of the Ninety-Nine Dragons have begun to spray water again. That water is a kind of divine liquid, transformed by the Kunlun Great Array absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, and even the Chengxian Cauldron can be repaired, which is most nourishing for magic weapons.

Moreover, the current divine liquid is somewhat different from before, with a hint of purple and a strong life aura. This is because the two Seeds of Immortality have injected a large amount of vitality.

The Wu Shi Bell fell into the Immortal Pool, and the god flew out from the weapon body, soaking in the divine liquid. The Zhenling also manifested and soaked next to him like taking a bath.

"Did something happen outside?" Zhenling asked.

"It's not a big deal, just asking me to guard Ziwei Star." Speaking of this, the Wu Shi Bell's god couldn't help but reveal a smile, "Also, he and a woman from Yaochi became Taoist partners. This is really fate."

"Yaochi? Fate? Is there any relationship in this?" Zhenling asked.

"This starts with the Great Emperor's identity, listen to me slowly..."

The two elderly non-humans were talking while taking a bath.

On the nearby mountain, the Fusang Tree and the Osmanthus Tree branches and leaves swayed, rustling, and the golden sun holy power and the black Taiyin holy power fell like broken jade, falling on the mountain and rolling into the pools at the foot of the two mountains, where there was a Yin-Yang Pool filled with golden and black liquids.

The two divine trees tried hard to extend their branches to the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountain. As undead divine medicines with intelligence, they were also very curious about the Great Emperor's secrets, and it was quite boring to stay in one place for a long time, so they stretched out their branches to eavesdrop.

……

"Are you ready to receive the gift?"

Luo Mo said after the Wu Shi Bell left.

Although the Wu Shi Bell is just a magic weapon, it is also an independent individual with intelligence. Luo Mo didn't want him to watch by the side, otherwise he would be embarrassed.

"Isn't the gift this palace?" Gu Manlu was a little surprised. She thought that this magnificent palace was the gift, and she and Luo Mo would live here in the future.

"If it were a gift, the words 'Source Heaven Sect' would not be written on it," Luo Mo smiled and said, "It should be written 'Manlu Palace', um... or 'Lulu Palace'? I'll change it now."

Gu Manlu blushed a little and quickly grabbed him, "What kind of name is this, you are not allowed to use it!"

If it was really called Lulu Palace, she felt that she, the master of the Holy Land, would probably not be able to continue. When the elders and disciples of Yaochi came to see it in the future, wouldn't she be ashamed to run to another planet with the palace overnight?

Thinking of that scene, Gu Manlu felt that even if she became a strong person like the West Emperor in the future, she would probably not be able to look directly at it.

"Hurry up and take out the gift," she scolded.

But Luo Mo said, "I thought about it carefully, this gift is a bit flashy and not practical, far inferior to a palace. Otherwise, I'll build another palace for you?"

Gu Manlu just looked at him.

Okay, let's not continue this joke.

"Emperor Qing is the incarnation of the Qinglian Undead Medicine," Luo Mo suddenly said.

Gu Manlu didn't understand what he meant by saying this and waited quietly for the following.

"Then who do you think has the best wood-based Taoism in this world?"

"Who knows?" Gu Manlu asked back without being guided by him.

Luo Mo pointed to his chest with his thumb:

"Of course it's me!"

The Tao Palace rumbled, layer upon layer, as if chanting sounds from endless time and space resounded here.

A majestic and stalwart man in a green robe and a gentle woman in a goose-yellow dress walked out of Luo Mo's Tao Palace.

"Emperor Qing Mu Huang cultivates all things, and all things grow where the spring breeze passes!"

Emperor Qing Mu Huang held a talisman and flew out on a gust of wind, bringing endless life and Mu Huang Gang Qi across Ziwei Star.

Below, seeds and seedlings grew rapidly under the nourishment of Mu Huang Gang Qi, Dong Sheng Shen Zhou, Xi Niu He Zhou, Bei Ju Lu Zhou, Nan Zhan Bu Zhou.

Flowers bloomed in an instant, and the mountains and fields were full of flowers, and the entire Ziwei Star changed color.
