The Secret Way of Immortality

The mountain peaks pierced the clouds, yet inexplicable roars echoed from the crevices in the rock walls from time to time, mingling with the wind and seeming exceptionally eerie.

In the eyes of the nearby hunters, the strange phenomena of the mountain peaks were likely due to a mountain god who had died unjustly, so they called this place "Ghost Cry Ridge," a place that could stop children from crying.

However, apart from the strange sounds, Ghost Cry Ridge was actually a place that beasts avoided, and experienced hunters would usually consciously approach the Ghost Cry Ridge direction when avoiding man-eating beasts.

This day, Ghost Cry Ridge suddenly shook violently.

Flocks of birds fled in droves, as if there was an unspeakable terror in Ghost Cry Ridge.

But in an instant, the birds seemed as if nothing had happened, and returned to the branches, tilting their heads to watch the distant Ghost Cry Ridge.

A hunter on a high slope ten miles away saw the mountain peaks of Ghost Cry Ridge tilting, causing a large amount of rubble to fall from the top of the mountain.

The hunter thought that the mountain god was angry, but after a while, he noticed that the mountain peaks suddenly returned to their original position.

From then on, the heart-wrenching wails of ghosts could no longer be heard in Ghost Cry Ridge, and wild beasts gradually began to appear in the mountains.

Ren Qing hung in the air above Ghost Cry Ridge, looking at Mu Yi, who was no longer in human form in front of him, the flesh and blood were indistinguishable from the tree roots, and his limbs were twisted into a pretzel shape, intertwined with his head.

Mu Yi muttered to himself in a crazy tone: "I saw it clearly, right? Don't you know what I saw?"

She tried her best to endure the collapse of her body, and at the same time, because of the rejection of her soul, she was constantly reorganized, enduring unspeakable pain.

Mu Yi's Heavenly Dao transformation gradually deepened, and the hundreds of newly grown eyes stared at Ren Qing's blurred figure, and then fell into silence.

She seemed to see a Heavenly Dao Tree standing on the horizon, her consciousness struggling on the edge of silence.

However, thousands of years of confinement had already caused Mu Yi to lose her intelligence, and then, her body and soul rioted without warning.

Countless flesh and blood vines piled up together, forming a deformed giant several thousand meters tall, but because the Heavenly Demon Tribulation eliminated the sense of existence, no living being noticed Mu Yi at all.

"Alas..."

Back then, Song Zongwu sealed Mu Yi in Ghost Cry Ridge, but after thousands of years, Mu Yi's cultivation level had regressed instead of advancing.

Ren Qing felt that even if Mu Yi's Heavenly Dao transformation exceeded 70%, she could barely reach the level of a Earth Immortal, which shows how weak her body and soul were.

He suppressed Mu Yi with one hand, and then wrapped her with the aura of Heavenly Dao Birth's technique.

Mu Yi's Heavenly Dao transformation was slightly restrained, but she still couldn't regain her intelligence, obviously relying on Heavenly Dao Birth alone couldn't cure the symptoms but not the root cause.

Ren Qing's expression was a little complicated.

If he hadn't appeared, wouldn't the Immortal Gods of the Forbidden Corps in this world grow unscrupulously like malignant tumors?

If Mu Yi died in the confinement, the ecology of tens of thousands of miles around would be greatly affected, turning into a strange and inexplicable restricted area.

Ren Qing felt that the Forbidden Corps Technique would only make this world fall into the abyss again.

Are the three Dao Ancestors who descended into the world really extraterrestrial demons?

Ren Qing stretched out his hand and tore open a crack leading to the Stomach Pouch World in the air, and Mu Yi was immediately sucked into the Stomach Pouch World.

Mu Yi fell next to the Heavenly Dao Tree, suppressing the Heavenly Dao transformation with the other Immortal Gods.

Their situation was not optimistic, and their bodies and souls had different degrees of distortion, and even their Immortal positions had become unstable.

Ren Qing still couldn't find Han Li's trace.

He realized that Han Li's situation should be more than what Song Zongwu said, even if he wanted to retreat, it was impossible for him to be outside all the time.

Ren Qing's time was limited, and he couldn't search for Han Li like a carpet.

He placed some Mycelium Souls everywhere in this world, and once Han Li appeared, Ren Qing could contact him through the Mycelium Souls.

The only thing Ren Qing was grateful for was that, according to the connection between the Heavenly Dao Tree and the Heavenly Immortal position, Han Li's life was at least guaranteed to be safe.

Before leaving the Stomach Pouch World, he glanced at the Heavenly Dao Tree.

The Heavenly Dao Tree emitted a faint light, and a sizzling sound came from the Immortal Gods, and their flesh and blood boiled like boiling water.

At their recovery speed, it would take at least five thousand years to recover.

Seeing this, Ren Qing didn't hesitate any longer, and controlled a branch of the Heavenly Dao Tree to extend into the Western Buddhist Realm of the Heavenly Palace, pointing directly at the Flesh Body Tathagata in the center.

Even with the offerings of thousands of monks, the Flesh Body Tathagata's cultivation level had improved insignificantly.

Ren Qing pierced the branch into the Flesh Body Tathagata's body, transferring the Heavenly Dao transformation of Mu Yi and other Immortal Gods to Mount Ling, maybe it could give the Flesh Body Tathagata a chance to be promoted to Corpse Disintegration Immortal.

The branches wriggled, and Karma Fire was continuously transported.

Mount Ling was once again ignited with raging Karma Fire, and the Flesh Body Tathagata also used the digestion of Heavenly Dao transformation to show a visible improvement in cultivation level.

For Ren Qing, the Flesh Body Tathagata was no longer of much use.

He no longer needed to use the information flow to promote techniques, so in normal times, the Heavenly Dao transformation of his body and soul would hardly increase, so it was better to use it to help the Immortal Gods recover from their injuries.

It would be best if the Immortal Gods could recover within two thousand years, and then be put into the great construction.

Ren Qing's consciousness returned to his main body, found a remote mountain range to retreat, and closed his eyes to cultivate the Heavenly Dao Birth of the Heavenly Aberrant Realm.

The Heavenly Dao aura flowed through his flesh, bones, and meridians, and the engraved Heavenly Dao patterns became more and more complex.

Ren Qing's body moved closer to his soul, and the efficiency of his cultivation was gradually improving, and even the Heavenly Dao Tree in the Stomach Pouch World benefited greatly.

In the next ten thousand years, if nothing unexpected happened, a large number of Earth Immortals, and even Great Luo Golden Immortals, would emerge in both the Immortal and God paths.

Ren Qing analyzed the key points, and couldn't feel the passage of time at all.

The progress of Heavenly Dao Birth continued to deepen, and after only a hundred years outside, the technique had reached the perfection of the Heavenly Aberrant Realm, and it wouldn't take too long to be promoted to Earth Immortal.

Ren Qing walked through the path of cultivation again, and the help to the foundation was very obvious.

Some questions that he didn't understand in the past, now that he has experienced them personally, were suddenly solved, and the path to the Heavenly Dao became clearer and clearer.

When Ren Qing's Heavenly Dao Birth was promoted to Earth Immortal, it was very natural.

The Heavenly Dao patterns began to penetrate deep into the bone marrow and blood, no longer fixed on the body, allowing each cell to complete earth-shaking transformations.

But what Ren Qing was puzzled about was that, during this period, the Forbidden Corps mobilized manpower to search for Han Li, but no matter in the Stomach Pouch World or outside, there was no trace of Han Li left.

This made Ren Qing have a guess.

Since he couldn't sense Han Li, it was very likely that Han Li was no longer in this world, and was probably trapped in a small world.

Like a world in a mirror, a deep dream, or even the Great Demon Heaven of the Supreme Heavenly Demon.

It was not difficult to ascend to the Great Demon Heaven. Back then, when Ren Qing built the Black Goat Nest, Han Li was almost entirely responsible for raising the Black Goats.

Ren Qing immediately looked up the Great Dream Pavilion's records about Han Li.

As he expected, Han Li had indeed purchased Black Goat Dharma Robes and containers storing Heavenly Demon aura before he disappeared.

Ren Qing didn't know Han Li's purpose, whether he was forced to ascend or not.

If Han Li meets Wuming in the Great Demon Heaven, Wuming should not attack Han Li, I only hope he can support him until I am promoted to Heavenly Dao.

Ren Qing suppressed his distracting thoughts and fell into a state of cultivation again.

The Heavenly Dao aura continuously circulated through the Great Circulation, stimulating the Heavenly Dao patterns of the body and soul, and mysterious lines spread out.

Ren Qing suddenly opened his eyes, and his body and soul simultaneously made a gesture of raising his finger.

It could be seen that the Heavenly Dao patterns on the palms of his body and soul had two patterns fused together at some point, making the body and soul more closely connected.

Ren Qing showed a happy expression, he understood that the path of Heavenly Dao Birth was the right one.

The Earth Immortal of Heavenly Dao Birth is actually the process of body and soul fusion, and finally the body and soul infinitely approach the Heavenly Dao Tree, thereby achieving Corpse Disintegration Immortal.

He has already taken the first step, as long as he moves forward step by step, it is only a matter of time before the technique returns to Corpse Disintegration Immortal.

It has only been less than two hundred years now, and there is still a surplus of time before the Supreme Heavenly Demon descends into the world.

Ren Qing's speculation about the Supreme Heavenly Demon is based on the interval between the descent of the three Dao Ancestors, and there must be some deviations, after all, the Supreme Heavenly Demon and the three Dao Ancestors are not on the same path at all.

"I must seize the time, after the Supreme Heavenly Demon descends, it is very likely to attack the three Dao Ancestors, this is my only chance..."

A gleam of light flashed in Ren Qing's eyes, the Heavenly Dao dispute has no time to take care of himself, so he can try to be promoted to Heavenly Dao and completely walk out of the chessboard.

He glanced at the situation in the Stomach Pouch World and chose to continue to retreat.

More than a thousand years have passed in the Stomach Pouch World, with the Flesh Body Tathagata transferring Heavenly Dao transformation, the situation of the Immortal Gods has undoubtedly improved a lot, especially the Great Dream True Person of the Great Luo Golden Immortal.

The Great Dream True Person has basically recovered, and can divide his mind to comprehend the Dreamland Heavenly Dao on the Heavenly Dao Tree while suppressing his injuries.

The God path has also lived up to expectations, entering a period of rapid development in refining equipment.

Incense Immortal is indeed suitable for refining pills and equipment, they don't need to cultivate techniques, and they don't need to digest incense for twelve hours.

It's better to find something to do than to think about making trouble all day long.

Zhou Zuosan sits in the Heavenly Court, helping the Incense Immortal to develop large-scale killing weapons and Heavenly Soldier and General puppets.

Preparing for the Heavenly Dao dispute.

How dare the Heavenly Court slack off, after all, the God path is completely tied to the Heavenly Dao's ship.

If Ren Qing dies and disappears, even if the Stomach Pouch World can survive, the Heavenly Dao Tree will definitely be destroyed, and the Heavenly Court's end can be imagined.

The Heavenly Court is much more nervous than the Forbidden Corps, defeat is the day of no return.

In this case, the Incense Immortals of the Heavenly Court spare no effort to specialize in pills and equipment, and every few years the Nine Heavens will be completely different.

Even the mortal world and the underworld are affected, and they intentionally or unintentionally hoard troops.

Even though thousands of years have passed, most cultivators have forgotten about the descent of the Heavenly Dao, but the invisible situation is becoming more and more depressing.

Five hundred years later, when Ren Qing's Heavenly Dao Birth reached Corpse Disintegration Immortal and fully impacted the Heavenly Dao, the Stomach Pouch World completely lost contact with Ren Qing.

The Immortal Gods of the Three Realms unanimously launched internal strife.

It's not to seize resources while Ren Qing is retreating, but a large-scale military exercise that lasts for thousands of years, so that all beings have the qualifications to become chess pieces.

Even if there are sacrifices, it will only increase the number of corpse veins in the underworld.

The prelude to the war has begun.

No one knows why the Immortal and God sides, who have always been well water does not offend river water, are inexplicably caught in a never-ending protracted war.

The Forbidden Corps and the Heavenly Court each occupy the north and south ends of the mortal world, with the Stomach Pouch World's continuous rivers as the boundary, turning thousands of miles into battlefields.

Then, a spectacle appeared in the river.

Under the backdrop of the rushing river, the world was separated into three layers.

The upper world is composed of large swaths of cloud sea, and you can see the phantoms of Immortal Gods fighting in it, like an arena for death row inmates, until one side completely loses the ability to act before stopping.

The middle world floats in the air, with flesh and blood ships in the style of the Forbidden Corps in the south, and the Heavenly Court's ships are more vast and atmospheric, mainly driven by incense energy.

Although the Heavenly Court can already enter and exit Dream City, the range of activity is not large, and the quotas are concentrated in the Sun and Moon Immortals, who are high-level officials.

This is also Zhou Zuosan's intention, mainly to allow the Forbidden Corps and the Heavenly Court to develop different cultivation civilizations over time.

Facts have proved that Zhou Zuo San's idea is not wrong.

The bottom world is low-level cultivators, and the demon veins intentionally send out a large number of demon beasts, just to test the transportation of logistics materials.

Neither side thought about really fighting, so they tried to focus on war machines.

Only war is the best way to test weapons, and it can allow both sides to learn from each other's strengths and make continuous progress, and finally reach the level that Zhou Zuosan wants.

In this case, the casualties have always been kept to a minimum.

The Forbidden Corps also prepared a large number of pill materials, as long as they are not broken to pieces, they can be saved by Mu Yi plus medicine.

Even if they die, their corpses and souls will be given priority to be refined into zombies.

Zhou Zuosan sits in the first heaven of the Heavenly Palace, which was originally a palace built by the Heavenly Court for Ren Qing, but now it is entirely handed over to Zhou Zuosan for processing.

On the one hand, it is because Zhou Zuosan is Ren Qing's disciple, and on the other hand, he has faintly achieved the unification of the Immortal and God paths.

No one expected that the person in charge of the overall situation was not the Great Dream True Person, nor Song Zongwu, or the old Earth Immortals.

The Forbidden Corps would actually default that Zhou Zuosan has the right to mobilize thousands of cultivators, and at the same time, the Heavenly Court also chose to bow to his seat because of Ren Qing's previous suppression.

With Zhou Zuosan's reputation, it is actually not enough to convince the public.

His strength is only the Heavenly Aberrant Realm, and he has not yet passed the Heavenly Immortal Tribulation, nor has he thought about becoming an Immortal with the terrifying resources of a Refiner.

The reason why Zhou Zuosan has been recognized by hundreds of millions of cultivators is because he has chosen the most difficult path for this Heavenly Dao dispute.

Willing to become a stepping stone for the Immortal and God paths.

Zhou Zuosan completely abandoned his old and weak body, and completely turned his flesh and bones into Dharma artifacts, especially his head, which is ten meters tall.

There are many gaps on the surface of the head, and it can be seen that it is filled with crystal-like tissue, and dense artificial flesh and blood are interspersed in it, sending nutrients to the most core brain.

In order to ensure the supply to the brain, the nutrients are provided by the resources produced by the first heaven, which is equivalent to nearly 10% of Dream City's income every day.

Zhou Zuosan looked at the battlefield in the mortal world, collecting information from various angles.

In order to live up to Ren Qing's expectations, he would rather squeeze out his energy and spirit, and also improve the Stomach Pouch World to the extent that it can influence the situation in the Heavenly Dao dispute within ten thousand years.

Zhou Zuosan understood that if Ren Qing's promotion to Heavenly Dao was not smooth.

They may have to face the aftermath of the Heavenly Dao alone, and once they are defeated, it is not just the destruction of the Stomach Pouch World, even Ren Qing will be greatly affected.

Zhou Zuosan's head flickered for a while, and then a powerful metallic sound came from his mouth.

"The disaster of the Supreme Heavenly Demon will definitely affect the Stomach Pouch World, and even pull us into the chessboard of the Heavenly Dao dispute."

"Next... maybe we will see the Heavenly Dao."
