Longevity: Beginning from the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 675 The Blessings of the Wonderful Tree Will Last for Generations
The towering Taixu Tree is slender and graceful, with delicate branches and leaves that shimmer with seven-colored light. Each leaf is covered with different innate bird and insect patterns, seemingly expounding the principles and laws of the universe.

At the very top of the tree canopy, several leaves seem to contain a world within itself, where one can vaguely see the creation of chaos and the evolution of thunderstorms.

Its roots are firmly planted in the soil beside the Immortal Pool, and are even more closely connected with the foundation of the Xuandu Temple in Zixia Cave. In just a few breaths, it seems to resonate with the "Heavenly Dao" and harmonize with the pure Yang Daoist rhymes.

Every instant, the Mysterious Tree of the Void seemed to be growing, giving rise to different mysteries.

In just a few breaths, he had already improved several points.

Lin Xuanzhi silently sensed that although the efficiency of cultivating Taoist arts and supernatural powers here was not as good as that of the Jade Wheel, it was still quite significant. It could save at least a quarter of the effort, if not half.

The better one's talent, the greater the bonus.

As for observing the precious tree, comprehending the mysteries of other Dao principles, and understanding supernatural powers and Daoist arts, these are also uses.

"Truly worthy of being the remnant of the Dao Lord's old body; even though it has regenerated from pieces, it can still be of such amazing use."

Within the Purple Mansion, Lin Xuanzhi's primordial spirit wore a precious robe woven from the Primordial Pure Qi, held a seven-colored jade wheel, and resonated with the Mystic Tree of the Great Void, within which some new Dao principles were faintly engraved.

A quick thought revealed that it was the same nourishment that the immortals of Xuandu had just given to the Taixu Wonderful Tree.

Looking at the newly sprouted precious tree, Taihua Zhenjun smiled warmly: "With this, disciples can save a lot of time in cultivating supernatural powers and comprehending the Dao, and will be more composed when facing calamities."

Nowadays, the Taixu Mystic Tree offers little help to those with pure Yang energy above the second stage of decline, but its effects are still astonishing.

The main reason why so many cultivators are filled with anxiety and fear when facing calamities is simply a matter of time.

Cultivating supernatural powers, enhancing one's natal magic weapon, practicing tribulation-crossing techniques, preparing immortal formations, and so on all require time.

Even those who possessed secret techniques were not immune to disaster and failed to master them.

Although Xuandu Temple has never had such an embarrassing incident before, the ample preparation time undoubtedly increases the chances of success.

Moreover, using this precious tree to comprehend the Dao and cultivate supernatural powers will greatly enrich one's foundation and provide numerous benefits.

Therefore, even as a powerful being of the Second Decay, True Lord Taihua couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.

As the Great Void Tree grows, it will one day reach a point where it can benefit even the most powerful beings who are subject to the second, third, and even fourth stages of decay.

Under such circumstances, the primordial spirit and pure yang that Xuandu Temple has been steadily passing down from generation to generation will undoubtedly become even more prosperous.

After all, a higher probability of birth also means a higher survival rate.

Of course, the premise of everything is still that you have to be good at it yourself. The barrier between the Golden Elixir and the Primordial Spirit does not rely on external things. If you can't pass through it yourself, it's useless to use the Taixu Wonder Tree to brew tea.

The headmaster Lingxuzi, with his white hair and youthful face, also had a ruddy complexion and a rather spirited demeanor.

"In this way, without encountering external calamities, the three of them, Wen Jing and his companions, will no longer be delusional about achieving the Yang Shen cultivation in their lifetime, and may even be able to glimpse the Forty-Nine Tribulations!"

Generally speaking, the two calamities of thunder and fire are not life-threatening for those from the pure Yang lineage; it is the wind calamity that is the real obstacle.

However, while natural disasters are easy to avoid, calamities are hard to prevent. When traveling, there is always the possibility of being caught unprepared and ending up in trouble.

Therefore, the possibility of Lingxuzi's three people being born as Yang Gods has increased significantly, and they may be able to glimpse the power of the Four-Nine Tribulations.

Qian Xuzi echoed slightly: "As for Senior Brother Lü, he has been in seclusion for a long time and should not be disturbed easily now, otherwise it would increase the chances of success."

Master Lü has been in seclusion for many years. The day he emerges from seclusion will most likely be the day the Fourfold Tribulation descends. Now, no one should disturb the other.

Master Gu chuckled: "Jing Ke is indeed having a stroke of good fortune. His original intention was to accumulate more knowledge so that even with the difficulty of the forty-nine, his path in the next life would be smoother. Now, perhaps he is just trying his best."

"Although Junior Sister Yue has a solid foundation, no one can say for sure what will happen when she faces the Forty-Nine Tribulation. It would be good to have some help now."

The number of Yang spirits accumulated over the generations in the direct lineage and other lineages of Xuandu Temple is not small, but only Lü Qingyan and Granny Yueqing can be considered to have the potential to become pure Yang spirits.

Qianxuzi's advancement is short-lived; it's not too late to accumulate experience over three or four thousand years before discussing matters related to the Four Nines.

However, Yuan Junzi, the first Corpse-Dissolving True Person to board Lin Xuanzhi's ship, seems to have been struck by great fortune again.

The policy of helping him become an immortal and then establishing a lineage of Dharma transmission in Chiming has long been a tacitly accepted policy among the Xuandu audience.

Now that we have the Mystic Tree of the Great Void in our hands, there's no need to hide it anymore.

After all, Yuan Junzi's character and conduct had long been recognized by them, so they considered him almost one of their own.

In the past few years, Yuan Junzi has been cultivating the Tribulation Transcending Secret Technique he acquired from Xuandu Temple, while also traveling the world in his spirit to collect merit energy and refine the secret treasure "Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda," leading a very fulfilling life.

Sun Zhenjun looked around and said with unusual joy, "Where acquired spiritual roots grow, heaven and earth will naturally favor them. The Taixu Wonderful Tree itself is nourished by the Dao and will not plunder the nutrients of other immortal herbs and spiritual medicines."

"Now it's time to transplant some more immortal herbs and spiritual roots to the Immortal Pool." As a master alchemist, Sun Zhenjun clearly had his own considerations.

Originally, only a few top-tier spiritual roots and immortal herbs were planted around the Yin-Yang Creation Immortal Pool.

Upon hearing this, Lingxuzi readily agreed, saying, "This is easy to discuss. Qianxu, you will later send a message to all parties, granting permission for the True Lords and True Men to grow their own superior spiritual roots and immortal herbs here."

"Yes, Headmaster."

As they spoke, Sun Zhenjun had already taken out several kinds of otherworldly immortal plants from his personal medicine garden and planted them around the wondrous tree and the immortal pool.

Seeing this, the others also readily sought auspicious locations for their own belongings.

Born here, everyone seems to be able to refine some pills, and everyone has a few treasured herbs.

Seeing this, Lin Xuanzhi didn't stand on ceremony and casually inserted the Heavenly Golden Thunder Bamboo into a place where Yin and Yang met, in order to nourish its source and prevent it from withering after two pure Yang attacks.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he retrieved a vibrant, seven-colored gourd vine from afar and entwined it around the Taixu Wonder Tree.

This gourd-shaped plant was originally obtained from the immortal abode left behind by Yuan Junzi. Although it is showing signs of life now, it has never grown into a mature plant. Now, Lin Xuanzhi has found it a feng shui treasure land.

Taihua Zhenjun glanced at the Heavenly Golden Thunder Bamboo and said, "This spiritual root is now rarely seen in the world."

"It was obtained by your disciple in the Ancient Realm of the Fire Emperor," Lin Xuanzhi replied with a smile.

Taihua Zhenjun nodded in understanding, then took out a purple jade crystal and said, "It was taken off before it was fully mature, so its origin was damaged. Now it seems that it can take root at any time, but it is not a long-term solution between spiritual roots and spiritual treasures."

"This bottle of Jade Purity Longevity Thunder Tribulation True Qi is what I had left over from my early practice. It is a great tonic for this bamboo. In the future, you can use the Taiqing Pill Technique to help refine it, and it may be able to completely stabilize at the level of Pure Yang Spiritual Root."

Lin Xuanzhi was surprised by the unexpected gain, and with the nods of Master Gu and the others, he readily accepted it.

"This disciple thanks the True Lord for his benevolent and generous gift."

Taihua Zhenjun has cultivated to the level of Erchai Zhenjun for over ten thousand years in this lifetime, and it is said that he is quite confident in facing the third calamity.

With his accumulated power over many lifetimes, a bottle of Jade Purity Longevity Thunder Tribulation True Qi is nothing more than a drop in the ocean.

"We are overjoyed that our sect is thriving and our disciples are outstanding."

Taihua Zhenjun had been living in the heavens for a long time, and even Wang Wenjing and the others had never seen him before.

Upon returning and seeing that the sect has successors, he was overjoyed and felt relieved.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the sect will likely have at least two more disciples achieving the Pure Yang realm, and may also support a Pure Yang lineage.

The lineage's fortunes will soar, the patriarchs will be free from decline and calamity, and the sect will have successive generations of outstanding individuals—this is the way to prosperity.

Not long after.

Everyone dispersed with smiles on their faces, while Bingfeng Xuanhao sneakily followed Lin Xuanzhi back to the Canxuan Cave on Jiuxuan Peak.

"Real person~"

Lin Xuan felt a surge of disgust and immediately shouted, "Speak properly!"

Hyunho, in his true form as the Ice Phoenix, adopted a fawning posture, which had a rather eerie feel to it.

At this moment, although Lin Xuanzhi disliked him to death, he still shamelessly said, "Master Yixu, we are old acquaintances. On several trips, I have worked hard, even if I didn't make any great contributions."

"Could you perhaps ask your sect leader if I could build a nest on that precious tree..."

"The other people's typhoon is coming soon too..."

Lin Xuanzhi said indifferently, "Nonsense? You've only been undergoing tribulation for a few years? As a member of the Phoenix family, your speed should be at least three to five thousand years, possibly even ten thousand years."

Xuanhao was tricked and abducted by Master Lü. Although he has been living in the cave for years and has shown a strong determination not to leave, he has never been as determined to stay as he is now.

"Well, I once overheard of a realm beyond this world..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Xuanzhi said nonchalantly, "Building a nest is fine, but the abbot should not object to your cultivation by the Immortal Pool, just like the other disciples."

Hyunho paused, then said, "Ah... really?"

Lin Xuanzhi, however, smiled and said, "Let's talk about that so-called otherworldly realm first?"
