Alchemy Dao Immortal

Chapter 460 Successfully promoted to the third generation
"Promotion."

Zhou Qing sat cross-legged on the cloud couch in the center. The large bronze tripod on the jade table in front of him had circles of dark colors on its ears on both sides, which cast a chill between his brows.

He was motionless, but within the quiet room, the river was rolling, the waves were rolling, countless ancient seal characters were rising, constantly arranging and combining, explaining a deep meaning. The whole space was filled with the sound of water waves, which was continuous and had no end in sight.

As time went by, the You River became wider and deeper, the waves became more turbulent, and countless seal characters appeared and disappeared in it.

An unknown amount of time had passed before a loud noise was heard, and the Youhe River behind Zhou Qing disappeared. Inside his body, streams of water light rushed down, drawing in star-like power from an unknown place in his body, and poured it into his Taoist body and into his immortal bones.

If you look closely, you will find that each star is shining brightly and surrounded by blood. The seemingly irresistible star wheel is floating up, supporting a heavy force that is endless.

In fact, these are not real stars, nor are they the stars in the sky, but the external manifestation of the power of the seven souls in the body.

The Hepo realm is to draw out the power of the seven souls in the body, on the one hand, to integrate into the Tao body, and form a Qiankun force with the immortal bones in the Tao body, getting it from the sky and transforming it on the ground. On the other hand, the power of the seven souls, the power of Dansha and the spiritual consciousness are integrated, and the essence, energy and spirit are integrated to prepare for the impact of the Yuanying realm.

"The Purple and Blue High Saint Yuanhuang Transformed into a Dragon."

Zhou Qing noticed that his Taoist body was once again integrated into the power of the seven souls. New changes occurred spontaneously and his eyes lit up.

Speaking of it, it is not easy to advance to the third level of soul fusion and gather the true power of the seven souls. It is even very difficult, but Zhou Qing's attainments and opportunities in "The Purple and Green High Saint Yuanhuang Transformation into a Dragon Diagram" are beyond imagination.

In his clan's territory, he was faced with comprehending the true version of "The Purple and Blue High Saint Yuanhuang Transformation into a Dragon Diagram" brought back to the clan by the ancestor of the Zhou clan. Even the most core disciples of the former Biyou Palace had never received such treatment.

What's more, his life-saving magic weapon, the Sea-Covering and Sky-Swallowing Gourd, has also made progress, which has been fed back into the "Purple and Green High Saint Yuanhuang Transformation into a Dragon Diagram", allowing this profound skill to make great strides forward.

With such great benefits, even though Zhou Qing had focused on practicing "The Book of the Spiritual Life and the Golden World" and "Miaoqing Canhe Gong" during this period of seclusion, and was comprehending the thunder method, one of the twenty-three methods he got from the Tiantong Palace, his "Purple and Green High Saint Yuanhuang Transformation into a Dragon Diagram" still made great progress and successfully broke through to the third level of the Hepo realm.

"It's time to come."

Zhou Qing's thoughts turned, and he gathered the strength from his body. The next moment, the aura of "The Purple and Green High Saint Yuan Huang Transformed into a Dragon" slowly dissipated, and the light from the outside sky shot in, a brilliant white color, hitting the jade couch, clear as the rustling white snow in the mountains, spotless.

In the quiet room, in front of him, although the aura of his recent promotion had disappeared, there was still a shadow of a deep and dark river that stretched across his eyes and lingered for a long time.

Zhou Qing took a look, then spread his sleeves and pushed the door open to go out.

An ordinary cultivator, even if he succeeded in being promoted, would have to remain in seclusion for a while to get familiar with the skyrocketing realm and strength. However, his foundation was so deep that it was immeasurable. He had already digested it the moment he was promoted and did not need anything else.

Not far outside, there is a horizontal pavilion covered with sky-blue glazed tiles. The sky light falls on the eaves that look like a flying crane spreading its wings, and it is fine and fragmented, and from time to time it falls like snow in winter, with a clear sound.

Zhenren Guande was wearing a cassock and leaning against a jade table with a jade ruyi with a curved handle placed on it. His eyes looked over, as gentle as jade.

Seeing such a look, even the arrogance in Zhou Qing's heart would be swept away. He took a deep breath, stepped forward to salute, and called him "Master".

Master Guande glanced at Zhou Qing and noticed the changes in this closed disciple. He was surprised for a moment. He didn't say much, but just said: "The flying palace built by Danding Academy will be completed soon. If you have time, go and take a look."

Dan Ding Academy built flying palaces for the four newly promoted ten disciples at once, which was not a small project. Someone was going to keep an eye on it to prevent any accidents.

Zhou Qing agreed and walked out of the cave. When he was outside, he identified the direction, then a rainbow light rose up, and he left the place and headed straight for Danding Courtyard.

Half a day later, the scene in front of him suddenly changed. From time to time, there were flames shooting out. When they collided with the Qi, the remaining color formed a red wheel. From a distance, the whole surroundings were dyed with a layer of red, like the morning glow. As soon as he approached, there was a scorching air that rushed to his eyebrows, making the Qi in his body become agitated.

There are not only earth-fire furnaces in the Danding Courtyard, but also several earth-fire heavenly furnaces opened up by the Immortal of Dongtian.

Whether it was the Earth Fire Baking Furnace or the Earth Fire Heavenly Furnace, they all controlled the great power of heaven and earth, and their power was absolutely incomparable to that of a cultivator. It was natural that there was such a scorching vision.

Going further ahead, there is a flying palace in front of you. It is shaped like a huge tripod with a slightly retracted mouth and an outward-folded rim. Under the round bottom are three thick column feet, making it very stable.

The foot of the column is decorated with relief animal faces and three convex string patterns below. Raging flames are burning above, as if the sun in the sky was plucked down and placed on top, which is magnificent.

This is the entrance to Dandingyuan. Zhou Qing saw it, walked straight forward, passed through the furnace entrance, and entered inside.

Opposite the entrance, there stands a fiery red stone pillar, the pillar is covered with animal face patterns with curved horns hanging to the ground. The horns are broad and strong, with the tips hooked and curled upwards. A Taoist priest sits on it with his eyes half closed. The Dansha power on the top of the door is red, and it is inhaling and exhaling flames along with the stone pillar.

Sensing someone coming, the Taoist on the stone pillar opened his eyes and stared over. When he saw Zhou Qing, he was startled at first, then he waved his sleeves and came down from above, saying, "It turns out to be Island Master Zhou."

As he spoke, the indifference on his face immediately disappeared and he tried hard to force a smile.

Dan Dingyuan has a high status in Zhenyi Sect. When facing ordinary disciples, deacons like him are not bossy, but they are always cold. But now seeing Zhou Qing, one of the top ten disciples who has just been promoted to the sect, he has to restrain his arrogance and treat him with caution.

Zhou Qing nodded. He was not surprised that the other party recognized him. Instead, he took it for granted.

After all, he was already famous, and after the ranking battle in the sect competition and Feiying Palace, he became even more famous in the sect. I dare not say that everyone knows him, but those who are interested must know him. And the deacon who welcomes and sees off people in a place like Dandingyuan must be an interested person.

Zhou Qing didn't want to exchange pleasantries with the other party, so he got straight to the point and said, "I came to the courtyard to take a look at the flying palace built for me."

"Feigong." The steward guarding the door immediately reacted upon hearing this and said, "Island Master Zhou, please follow me."

Zhou Qing followed behind and walked in for an unknown amount of time before a series of copper pillars appeared in front of him. Each pillar was engraved with a different pattern. Wisps of sparks burst out from them, connecting together to form a fire cloud, covering the central hall.

Three or five strange flying birds, with tail wings thirty to five feet long, were standing on the horizontal bar, jumping around and continuously spitting out pure fire.

Seeing a stranger coming, the bird jumped up and down, and spit fire even more vigorously. "Stop making noise."

A Nascent Soul cultivator with fiery eyebrows came out and pushed the bird away. He looked down and was stunned.

"Elder Gong."

When the Huadan deacon who led the way saw the person coming, he hurried forward and whispered to him the purpose of Zhou Qing's visit to Dandingyuan.

This Elder Gong holds a high position in Danding Academy and is fully responsible for the construction of the flying palace that serves as the mounts for the ten great disciples.

"Oh, I see." After hearing this, Elder Gong greeted Zhou Qing and said, "Island Master Zhou, your Xuanling Zhenyang Flying Palace is still being arranged and has not been delivered to you yet."

"It's being arranged." Zhou Qing frowned, a sharp look on his face, and said, "It's been several months, and the arrangement is still not completed?"

His voice was not loud, but it had a kind of majesty.

The standard version of the vehicle that the ten great disciples of Zhenyi Sect mount is the Zhenyang Flying Palace, which can fly above the sky, occupy mountains and rivers, and temporarily serve as a cave dwelling. It has unparalleled magical uses and is not comparable to any ordinary flying magic weapon.

Although no one said it explicitly, everyone in the know knew that according to the tradition of Danding Academy, they had already built several Zhenyang Flying Palaces in advance and placed them in the academy, ready for use.

If the ten new disciples do not need to upgrade the Zhenyang Fei Palace, they can take it away directly.

Even though his flying palace needed to be upgraded, even his master, Zhenren Guande, had personally come out to help build it. After some time had passed, it should be mostly completed.

"Well," facing Zhou Qing's aggressive gaze, Gong Zhenren from Dan Ding Academy's eyes flickered and said, "Island Master Zhou, your Xuanling Zhenyang Flying Palace has basically taken shape. Now you need to nurture the restrictions on the flying palace, but the formation masters in the academy are very busy, resulting in a shortage of manpower, so progress is slow."

Zhou Qing listened quietly, his eyes deep.

There won't be many formation masters at the level of Zhenyang Fei Palace in the Danding Courtyard who can nurture and arrange it, but there definitely won't be just a few of them.

The other party must have some hidden reason for doing this.

"However," Zhou Qing didn't care what the hidden secret was. He stared at the other party, and a brilliant white color appeared in his eyes, like frost and snow in winter, with a chilling chill. He said, "I will be going out in a few days, and I will definitely use Feigong. Master Gong, think of a way. I believe you will definitely have a way."

The other party's voice was calm, but Elder Gong was such a great man that he could already hear the deep meaning in the other party's words. If he really delayed the other party's business, he would probably offend the other party.

Although Elder Gong had some plans in mind, he had no intention of offending a superb figure who was the second among the ten great disciples and whose momentum was extremely strong. After all, the other party's performance was incredible, and there was hope for him in the future.

After thinking for a while, Elder Gong immediately made a decision. He deliberately hesitated and thought for a long time before nodding and saying, "Since Island Master Zhou needs it, we really can't delay. How about this, I will transfer a few more people and try to hand over your Xuanling Zhenyang Flying Palace to you as soon as possible."

"Thank you very much, Master Gong."

A smile appeared on Zhou Qing's face, but he had some thoughts in his mind. No wonder his master, Master Guan De, asked him to come to Dan Ding Courtyard. This was not only to see what Fei Palace was like and whether it suited his taste, but also because there might be something fishy going on inside.

Master Gong called over the Taoist boy and asked him to take his handwritten order and go to mobilize people. After making all the arrangements, he said to Zhou Qing, "Let's go. Your flying palace is in the Earth Fire Heaven Furnace in the northwest of the courtyard."

"Earth Fire and Heaven Furnace."

Zhou Qing became interested when he heard this. When he was refining his life-saving magic weapon, the Sea-Covering and Heaven-Swallowing Gourd, he had used the Earth-Fire Baking Furnace of the Luochuan Zhou Clan. As for the Earth-Fire Heaven Furnace, he had never seen it before.

The requirements for the earth fire in the earth fire furnace were extremely high. Not only did it need to be extremely pure, but it also had to be continuous and in astonishing quantities. Then, it would take a hundred years for a cave master who understood this to open it up before it could gradually take shape.

Each Earth Fire Furnace brings out the power of the Earth Fire to its extreme and is most suitable for refining huge treasures like the Flying Palace.

There was no conversation on the way, and we arrived at the northwest of Dandingyuan smoothly.

"This is the Earth Fire Heaven Furnace."

Zhou Qing stopped and looked up, his eyes slightly widened. In front of him was a huge pit with no end in sight. Large patches of red floated up from it and gathered together to form a strange fire cloud that enveloped the surroundings. It seemed that there was only fire and black smoke in this world, nothing else.

Compared to the earth fire furnace he had used in his clan, this earth fire furnace was many times larger, and it was simply not on the same level. In the furnace, due to the extremely high temperature, the blazing flames even formed rolling red water, which made a gurgling sound.

Seeing Zhou Qing watching intently, Master Gong, who was standing aside, said, "Island Master Zhou, this Earth Fire Heaven Furnace is not a simple one. It was built by our sect's third generation leader when he was in the Cave Heaven Realm. He used a supreme magic weapon to open up the earth's lungs and draw in the earth fire. It took him hundreds of years to arrange it and finally take shape."

“The work of three generations.”

Zhou Qing looked again and again, with a look of surprise on his face. Every generation of Zhenyi Sect's headmaster was amazing and aimed at immortality. For such people, their time was very precious, and they were able to use hundreds of years to open up the Earth Fire Heaven Furnace for the sect, which was admirable.

"Let's go in." Master Gong opened the restriction of the Heavenly Furnace with his hand, and an astonishing heat wave immediately surged out. He used his magic power and the protective light to block the burning, and said to Zhou Qing: "The temperature in the Heavenly Furnace is extremely high, Island Master Zhou, please be careful."

"clear."

Zhou Qing's spiritual sense sensed the power of the Heavenly Furnace being cast out through the gap in the restriction. The blazing fire seemed to be real, and his eyes moved.

The underground fire here is truly terrifying, and it is only because of the forbidden magic array in the Heavenly Furnace that it is restrained. Otherwise, the entire area where the Danding Academy is located would have been turned into a sea of ​​fire long ago.
