Longevity: Beginning from the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 599: Six Paths of Reincarnation Lotus Embryo Sacrifice
In the empty cave, Venerable Lionheart couldn't help but sigh quietly, with a faint smile on his face, but his eyes became more determined.

Having reached their level of practice, they are ready to take responsibility for the gains and losses of every decision they make.

"Hades..."

The Buddha's light behind his head suddenly lit up, illuminating his body and mind. The wisdom light between Lionhearted Venerable's eyebrows was as bright as a torch, observing all causes and effects. However, it was just a dream and mist, unable to touch the root.

Although Buddhism has great supernatural powers such as clairvoyance and the end of all defilements, not everyone can cultivate to a very deep level due to the different emphases and methods of each golden body.

Although this Scattering Flower Scholar seems to be only at the Yangshen level, he has extraordinary background, and his purpose this time must be heavily concealed.

The reason why Lord Lionheart could confirm the other party's origins in the underworld was only because he learned about it from the transaction.

After all, it seems that no one has thought of hiding this.

The reward that can tempt Chunyang and make him willing to offend Chi Ming's powerful forces is nothing more than something that targets the decline or other things that can help increase one's cultivation.

Especially for some beings that are facing imminent doom, this undoubtedly hits the spot.

Let's not talk about that old man Qiansun for now. Judging from the scholar Sanhua's inference, the old nun Wusi must have also gained some benefits.

However, what concerned Lord Lionheart the most was the exact origin of this scholar who scattered flowers.

As we all know, the five ghost kingdoms in the underworld, together with the transcendent Fengdu ghost city, are quite complex.

Because he had the good fortune to listen to lectures in a Bodhisattva Pure Land outside the sky for thousands of years, Venerable Lionheart had some understanding of the situation in the underworld.

I'm afraid that only the two ghost countries in the East and the South can send out a sword immortal of such level.

And finding out the background of the cooperation partner will undoubtedly help Lord Lionheart better judge the situation and the room for action.

After all, the ghost kings in the underworld have very different styles of doing things and their attitudes toward their partners are also different.

Just a pity.

Lord Lionheart sighed helplessly. With information asymmetry and multiple cover-ups, he might not be able to see anything even if he had a higher level of Taoism.

"However, although it is difficult to know the full picture, since there are several parties in the underworld competing against each other, it is most likely for the Fengdu Dharma Assembly."

His eyes darkened, and his heart was slightly moved, but then he calmed down again.

This is also the reason why he wanted to delve deeper into the origins of Scattering Flowers Scholar.

After all, if he has great potential, he, the Lionhearted Lord, may not be unable to compete for the position of "Ghost Emperor".

Especially if there is a possibility of deeper cooperation.

However, when it came to the key point, this scholar avoided the question very flexibly.

After carefully considering the abilities of Elder Qiansun and Nun Wusi, his two accomplices at that time, Venerable Lionheart couldn't help but be moved.

"Then take the initiative to show your sincerity in order to achieve a deeper alliance!"

It is said that after the scholar Scattering Flowers left the cave of Venerable Lionheart, he flew away into the void with his sword.

He had been in Chi Ming for a long time and had spent a lot of hard work to find the location of Nanlu Island. Naturally, he didn't want to get nothing again.

Even though it is basically determined that there is a real arrangement, the awkward location makes it difficult to know where to start.

To be honest, rather than keeping it here, Sanhua Scholar would rather Zhou Laogui hide the equipment under the Divine Capital.

Moreover, although the Fengdu law has opened the door to easily track down Zhou Laogui, the underworld still needs to keep a low profile when doing things outside.

After all, one of the laws set by the Great Lord was that one must not disturb the world of the living.

Their move was undoubtedly crossing the line, and the line they crossed was the Fire Phoenix line.

If other people were jumping around under her nose, Fire Phoenix would not bother to pay attention, but the same may not be true for those under the command of Lord of the Underworld.

As a result, they all chose to deal with it by pretending to build a plank road while secretly attacking Chencang.

But this is still not safe enough!
The situation on Nanlu Island has changed. It goes without saying that Old Ghost Zhou has powerful methods. Although that True Lord Mingling is more than one level lower, Chunyang is still Chunyang.

Even if you can sneak under Nanlu Island without attracting attention, it would be difficult to act without being detected.

If you want to enter Zhou Laogui's "land of reincarnation", it will probably take a lot of effort.

This could be the secret reincarnation place of the former Ghost Emperor, or a special mausoleum, a key anchor point.

The specific circumstances also determine the danger.

The best, but also the worst, case scenario is that it is the place where Zhou Laogui is reincarnated, but it is hard to say what the situation is like in that state.

The scholar who scattered flowers had his thoughts race through his mind and couldn't help but think deeply.

If this thing is done, if you are lucky you will become extremely rich, but if you are unlucky you will probably die on the job.

And if you go to great lengths and end up with nothing—

Shaking his head, the Scattering Flower Scholar quietly appeared in an underwater cave with strict prohibitions. There seemed to be an altar standing in it, which was clearly the authentic style of the Netherworld.

Now, several ghost kings in the underworld are also secretly watching each other and will not take direct action until the time comes.

The scholar who scattered flowers would not directly ask for any help.

What he had to do was to cast a spell to locate the people from the underworld who might exist in Tiannan, in order to gauge whether there was any possibility of a temporary alliance.

Although it has been confirmed that there is a driving force behind the Southern Demon Cult, Scattering Flower Scholar does not believe that the other parties have not been able to get in touch with this side.

The four parties competed against each other, and every time one party got a hint of something, the other parties would smell it and chase after them soon after.

This time is bound to be no exception.

Although they all chose to put forward an open cover in order to fish in troubled waters, Sanhua Scholar concluded that the Ghost Emperors of all parties would only let their confidants come forward to actually infiltrate.

Soon, the altar was activated, and the yang spirit of the scholar who scattered flowers merged with it. His immortal consciousness continued to rise and rise, and then it turned into a dormant state among the laws of the void.

While meditating, he had already merged into the heaven and earth with the power of the Netherworld Altar.

If he had not touched upon the depths of Xuan Yin and the Avenue of Death for many years, and if all the Yang God and Yin residue had not been completely eliminated, he would not have dared to make such a reckless move.

But in order to be more secure, at least to ensure safe entry into the "Land of Reincarnation", Sanhua Scholar could not worry too much.

…………

…………

The seasons rotate and the time changes.

In the blink of an eye, it is already spring again on Nanlu Island, when all things come to life.

On that day, all the creatures on the island could smell was the intoxicating, soul-penetrating aroma of mellow wine spreading from the direction of the two polar peaks.

In the hazy dream, there seems to be a big dream of spring and autumn, a thought of the red dust, life and death, and all kinds of flavors are hidden in it.

Countless weak creatures fell to the ground, drunken and having a big dream.

Only those who have achieved profound cultivation or are far away from it can have some self-control and carefully savor the beauty of it.

"Hahaha! It really worked!"

Looking at the jars of fragrant wine in the cave, Canxia Sanren couldn't help but smile and look much more relaxed. Seeing that the grand feast was approaching, he finally succeeded in brewing three kinds of fine wine with the cooperation of his fellow disciples!

Although it has not yet reached the level of the best quality, it is still a top-grade wine, comparable to a first-grade elixir.

Thanks to this brewing, his alchemy skills were finally improved after many years.

If you understand, you can try to refine a real first-grade elixir!

"Hurry up and report to the master that Canxia and his fellow disciples have lived up to his trust."

Canxia Sanren immediately ordered his attendants to either report to various places or busy themselves with packaging the three kinds of fine wine into bottles and send them back to the Phoenix Mermaid Tribe.

The people of the Nanming Immortal Sect had already seen the wine used in the banquet arranged by the Phoenix Mermaid Clan.

That's why they were a little excited and busy sending it on their own initiative.

The tea they brewed at home was pretty good, at least it wouldn't bring shame to the founder.

In Fengxian Mansion.

Ling Xiao's nose twitched, and he looked towards Nanming Immortal Palace with a bit of surprise: "This thing really has something! It smells pretty good, and it can be compared with several high-quality spirit wines at home."

"It only took more than ten years to successfully brew this? The Taoist nun he met must be quite capable!"

More than ten years of kung fu was nothing more than a nap for them, but Lingxiao was not a quiet person and moved around a lot. At the same time, they couldn't help but wonder how Xuanming could hold it in. He had kept his immortal residence closed for more than ten years. Did he seem to be in seclusion?
"This guy has definitely been corrupted by the human race! He's still fighting for more than a decade of hard work?"

As for Lin Xuanzhi, he was of course paying attention to every little movement in the outside world.

Even because of his own other purposes, over the years he had used the Supreme to quietly transform some of the weak and inconspicuous creatures on Nanlu Island into spies.

He himself sat obediently in the immortal palace and practiced his supernatural powers.

Inside the Tianyou Palace, a small silver bell cast down layers of almost invisible mercury-colored ripples that enveloped everything.

Lin Xuanzhi sat upright on the cloud bed, and behind him he saw an ancient and majestic wheel with an unpredictable aura slowly turning.

The manifestation of the wheel is like the cycle of life and death itself. As it turns, one can see the wonderland of heaven and endless bliss; or the mortal world with a myriad of wonders; or the boundless sea of ​​blood, dirty but powerful.

In addition, the three paths of hell, evil spirits, and animals also exude a sense of indifference and loftiness that is captivating and directly strikes the true spirit.

The six paths rotate and appear according to one's mind, either solid or illusory. The manifestation of each path causes the surrounding void to show different degrees of strange changes.

Although there was no direct target, Tianji Taiyuan Zhong Ling still couldn't help but feel shocked by this legendary supernatural power.

"It stands to reason that since it is not a direct descendant of the Netherworld or the orthodox Buddhist sect, it is undoubtedly a foolish dream to want to fully cultivate this great magical power."

"Not only did this young Taoist priest actually succeed in refining this magical power, he also eliminated the Buddhist part of the original magical power and found another way to incorporate the true meaning of the Xuanmen's way of life and death."

"Does this count as establishing a new sect besides the Hades and Buddhism sects?"

"However, although the Xuandu Taoist sect is famous for the Eight Great Views of Taiqing, Taiji and Yin and Yang are also fundamental principles. Many of them are involved in the principles of life and death..."

As the thought turned, Zhong Ling saw that the six paths of reincarnation behind Lin Xuan had become completely solid, and there were unpredictable figures floating in the six paths.

As the law of life and death cycle manifested itself, the Tianyou Palace seemed to have fallen into a dark and underworld state in an instant. The cries of ghosts and the howling of gods seemed to reveal their fear and unwillingness to the cycle of reincarnation.

A moment later, countless figures and scenes such as the Yellow Spring were all thrown into the Samsara Disk, but Lin Xuanzhi suddenly moved.

I saw a Nirvana lotus embryo that looked heavy but was dragged up by Lin Xuanzhi very decisively, and directly put into the Six Paths of Reincarnation that he had just successfully cultivated to the initial level of magical power.

The two seemed to be blending without any hindrance, and the disk of reincarnation seemed to be slowly accommodating the lotus embryo.

Buzz!
Silence is better than sound.

A collision between the laws of the great Dao caused Lin Xuanzhi's mind to shake, and in an instant, it seemed that countless mysterious and profound principles of the great Dao impacted his Dao heart and cognition.

As a relic left behind by a Buddhist Bodhisattva who had survived several catastrophes, even though it had been squandered by Wangchuan Sanren and exploited as "energy" for a long time, the mysteries and magical powers contained therein are still immeasurable.

To be honest, in Zhong Ling's opinion, even if Lin Xuanzhi had mastered the Six Paths of Reincarnation, this action would be almost a recipe for death.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is like an ant trying to shake a tree. The most likely possibility is that he will be starved to death. The extremely small possibility is that he will survive but go crazy or have distorted cognition and become the shadow of that Buddhist master.

Even though this lotus embryo contains extremely subtle laws of reincarnation, there are also too many traces of the great way left by the Buddhist Bodhisattvas.

But Zhong Ling also understood that the direct descendant of Xuan Du would not be an idiot, so he did not waste his breath on him and focused on covering up the situation.

Lin Xuanzhi only felt that the black and white light and shadows formed by countless great laws of the Tao were constantly impacting his heart and thoughts. He also vaguely saw a blurry figure sitting on the white lotus of Nirvana and reciting the true scriptures.

Countless bits and pieces of true scriptures and wonderful methods were imprinted in the mind, along with some fragments of memory.

All this was not anyone's conspiracy, but the inevitable mark of the owner that the lotus embryo itself carries.

Fortunately, Lin Xuanzhi had experienced a similar shock in "He Dao" and was able to maintain a brief period of clarity at the beginning.

Then he adjusted the state of his soul in time, and connected the six paths of reincarnation to start his magical powers.

Specks of black and white light and shadows were drawn into the roulette wheel, and at the same time a considerable portion of the avenue marks were revealed.

At this moment, the jade wheel lit up from the center of Lin Xuanzhi's primordial spirit's eyebrows. The clear light enveloped the inscription of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Magical Power, and the lotus embryo began to melt even faster.

If you look closely, you can see that the pure white light of peace and liberation gathers on the jade wheel, turning into a trace of the law symbolizing the innate nirvana.

The cracks on the jade wheel were repaired a little bit.

It was unknown how long it had been like this, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk seemed to become much heavier, and upon closer inspection, there seemed to be a slowly rotating black and white lotus in it, which seemed real, illusory, life-and-death.

As Lin Xuan's thoughts turned, the wheel moved majestically, surrounded by the power of the cycle of life and death. It seemed as if he had become the true master of reincarnation, able to decide life and death and send people into reincarnation with a single thought.

"what?"

With a slight movement of his thoughts, Lin Xuanzhi suddenly looked into the distance. His magical power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation and his immortal consciousness combined, and he broke through the air while hiding between life and death, and landed on a sea area.

Hidden in the void, Lin Xuanzhi quietly observed below.

Undersea cave.

In front of the altar, the eyes of the scholar Scattering Flowers were dark and deep, and his immortal consciousness seemed to sense two fluctuations of energy, but only one "star" lit up within his perception.

"Western Ghost Country, Zhong Wuyan!?"

On a large reef in the South China Sea, the ghost general Zhong Wuyan, dressed in pitch-black armor, suddenly opened his eyes, and his cold and ferocious gaze shone through the void.

"Who is so sneaky as to dare to spy on your Grandpa Zhong?"

With the help of the Six Paths of Reincarnation magical power that surpassed his own level, Lin Xuanzhi easily "intercepted" the signal of the Scattering Flower Scholar without being noticed.

Naturally, he also saw his old friend from the ghost country.

"It seems that General Zhong is an open card——"

With a slight movement of his mind, he vaguely guessed what the Western Ghost Emperor meant.

Just looking at the behavior of this person under the sea, it seems like he is asking for cooperation?
