Born with immortal seed

Chapter 833 The Eighth Immortal Bone

Successor of the Heavenly Emperor!

Bai Zichen suddenly felt a deep sense of panic, as the secrets hidden in the naked body were probably far more numerous than what he had obtained from the last soul search.

Combined with the remains of the bald cultivator seen in the long river of time and the dark shadow at the bottom of the river, the most mysterious and unpredictable Dao body in the Earthly Immortal Realm is shrouded in layers of mist, which can never be completely lifted.

The title of Changsheng Tianzun is held by the possessor of the Guangyin body, and he practices the Guangyin lineage passed down by the Heavenly Emperor.

In other words, the Heavenly Emperor himself is also a practitioner of the Great Dao of Time.

Or perhaps, upon reaching the level of a Mahayana True Immortal, one can readily wield any Dao.

It's not difficult to achieve a complete connection.

However, judging from the special selection requirements of the Eternal Heavenly Venerable, he subconsciously felt that the Heavenly Emperor must take the Great Dao of Time as its foundation.

"I am but a lowly soldier of the Imperial Guard. How dare I claim to be a descendant of the Heavenly Emperor? It would only make me a laughing stock if people found out."

Bai Zichen waved his hand slightly; the title of successor of the Heavenly Emperor was too great, and he dared not accept it casually.

The origins of my own Time Path are inexplicable, and whether it is the physical body of Time Path is still inconclusive.

The progress of the practice and the comprehension of the Great Dao's supernatural powers were much faster than those recorded in the classic texts regarding the Guangyin body.

He didn't even want to take the position of candidate for the Longevity Celestial Venerable, so as to avoid getting involved in the power struggles among the high-ranking officials of the Daoist court.

Not to mention that this matter involves the Heavenly Emperor, and the only two Mahayana beings among all the heavens and myriad realms and countless living beings.

Any trace of anything related to Him can trigger an earthquake, even if it is later proven to be nothing but speculation.

The allure of longevity is irresistible to anyone.

The Starlight Passage was destroyed, and the treasures from the Sky-Gazing Beast's lair were scattered everywhere.

It took the two of them several days to collect most of it.

Master Qijue wanted to offer all of them, but Bai Zichen glanced at them and politely declined.

Based on the approximate value, he asked for sixty immortal crystals, which was equivalent to half of the total value.

"Fellow Daoist, you are very knowledgeable. Do you know what other incarnation techniques exist in the Earthly Immortal Realm that one might have the opportunity to learn?"

Bai Zichen asked a question about the topic that interested him most.

The other party had served in the Central Immortal Realm for a long time, and his experience as a successor of the Heavenly Emperor was evident from this. His knowledge and experience were far beyond what one could gain in a local setting.

Perhaps we can offer unique insights into these matters.

"The Dual God-Slaying Technique that I have practiced is already one of the top three incarnation techniques in the Dao Court. As long as one's foundation is deep enough, one can create an unrestricted incarnation... The only techniques that are clearly superior are the Purple Star Heavenly Venerable's incarnation technique that governs all stars and the Heavenly Palace Book of the Master of the Myriad Stars."

The Venerable Qijue, having received the debt of gratitude for being saved, spoke frankly and without reservation.

"The avatars cultivated by the Heavenly Book of the Myriad Stars Sect Master of the Central Dipper may not be the strongest, but they can be the masters of all the stars in the heavens, and their numbers are unparalleled in the world. In the past, each Ziwei Heavenly Venerable had thousands of avatars traveling to various worlds, and one person could support the Myriad Stars Palace."

"Of course, the most orthodox and most powerful incarnation technique is none other than the Heavenly Emperor's One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones. He once used this technique to fight alone against the true spirits of the Heavenly Demon Realm, the seven most ancient demon gods of the Heavenly Demon Realm, and a five-person combination that was closest to the Mahayana stage, which was pieced together by alien races."

After that battle, the Heavenly Emperor and the True Spirit disappeared together.

The seven ancient demon gods' true forms were destroyed, directly causing a rift in the Heavenly Demon Realm. These ancient demon gods were different from the later ones; they had not yet reached the Mahayana stage, but they already possessed some Mahayana characteristics.

They are not truly immortal, but as long as the Heavenly Demon Realm exists and evil intentions persist, they will not disappear.

The seven ancient demon gods are beings closer to the Mahayana stage than the five sons of the human race.

There are also five powerful individuals selected from countless alien races across the myriad realms, all of whom are stuck at the Integration stage and linger at the threshold of Mahayana.

These five powerful figures also remained forever in the Heavenly Demon Realm. Like the seven ancient demon gods, they were never heard of again and were completely dead.

"With the talent and innate ability you've displayed, fellow Daoist, there's a high chance you'll receive instruction if you go to the Central Immortal Realm..."

Bai Zichen remained silent. The temptation was great, but he couldn't change his original plan: "Master, please talk about other things. These two cultivation methods have too high requirements, and it's not easy to qualify."

“Outside of the Dao Court, there is an incarnation called the Sword-Raising Slave in the Heavenly Sword Pavilion. It is an incarnation created by refining the sword embryo of a personal flying sword and fusing it with the sword spirit. It is somewhat biased towards forbidden techniques, and only a few people in the Heavenly Sword Pavilion are qualified to learn it, let alone outsiders.”

"And the Sambhogakaya practice in the Saha World is truly wondrous; with just one great vow, one can attain the fruition of a Bodhisattva..."

Master Qijue patiently introduced all the well-known incarnation techniques in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Upon further investigation, it becomes clear that all the viable transformation techniques are in the hands of major powers, and only their core disciples can practice them, let alone outsiders.

It is said that cultivation techniques that can be learned by spending time and immortal crystals often have major flaws.

At most, the Nascent Soul stage can be used in the Void Refinement stage. Going any higher will hit a ceiling, and one will be easily defeated by others who find a weakness in their defenses.

Upon returning to the Yao Guang Continent, Bai Zichen stayed there for several months, sometimes discussing philosophy with the Seven Absolutes Master, and sometimes cultivating in seclusion.

Just as Master Qijue was setting off to exchange the Golden Jade Elixir for the Sacred Essence True Pill, Bai Zichen also took his leave and returned to the Earthly Immortal Realm according to the Star Path.

He originally said he was going to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, but after they parted ways, he changed his star path and headed towards the Seven Treasures Immortal Realm.

Even though the Star Road could greatly shorten the distance between the outer world and the Earthly Immortal Realm, it still took more than four years since they couldn't freely enter and exit the Void.

……

"What a fine relic of Buddha! It actually reacted with my Nine Heavens Bone Forging Technique... So the upper limit of this technique isn't seven immortal bones, but nine!"

The bone, which he obtained from a quasi-seventh-tier Sky-Gazing Beast and was filled with peaceful Zen, resonated with the body-tempering technique he had acquired in the lower realm.

The seven immortal bones in his body simultaneously became hot, secretly connecting with each other and reacting with the Buddha's relics.

The milky white light flowed out, as if bathed in milk.

The moment I succeeded, I sensed something was wrong.

After days of dedicated research, we finally cracked the code.

The Nine Heavens Bone Forging Technique is not limited to forging only seven immortal bones. Previous versions had unfinished business; only by forging nine immortal bones can one truly reach the perfect state.

And the Buddha's relics are the eighth piece.

The scroll that was passed to Bai Zichen was missing the contents of the last two immortal bones. The contents were only gradually activated after he obtained the Buddha relic bone.

The biggest achievement these days is completing the Nine Heavens Bone Forging Technique.

"To cultivate the Buddha's relics, one must have the relics left behind by a Bodhisattva-level monk after his passing, so that the rib can be slowly forged... Once the cultivation is complete, one will have an immaculate body, and all impurities and toxins produced by cultivation methods or taking elixirs will be expelled on their own."

"Furthermore, practicing any Buddhist supernatural powers becomes much easier, as if one is born with a Buddha-like heart."

The Bodhisattva rank is equivalent to the Taoist practice of refining emptiness.

However, not every Buddhist cultivator at the Refinement of Emptiness realm can become a Bodhisattva. It is more like an honorary title that can only be bestowed upon people of a certain status.

Over the years on his path to stardom, he absorbed the power from this Buddha relic and transformed the nature of his own rib.

By employing a substitution technique, a Buddha relic was created without the presence of a Bodhisattva-level relic.

Once the eighth immortal bone was formed, a series of reactions occurred, and the Nine Heavens Bone Forging Technique seemed to undergo a complete transformation, restarting its cycle once again.

The seven immortal bones from the past have all been reborn, and in every aspect they match his advancement in realm.

Like the Hundred Poisons Jade Scale Bone, it is fearless of all the world's deadliest poisons, but it is limited to fifth-order poisons in the human realm.

Arriving in the Immortal Realm, if one still thinks they can ignore the various strange poisons by relying on this immortal bone, they will only die a very miserable death.

It should be noted that even powerful beings at the Fusion Stage have been killed by rare poisons.

But now, it immediately reaches the level of being able to ward off sixth-order poisons.

The same applies to the Sun Origin Copper Bone and the Imperishable Cave True Bone.

It can be said that his physical strength has improved by a whole level.

"The last immortal bone is actually a sword bone, called the Supreme Sword Bone, which can be the most supreme among swords and suppress all swords... Not bad, this is good news for me!"

With each additional immortal bone, the cultivation speed of the Dongxuan Slaughtering God Sword Scripture increases by 10%.

With the added benefits of the Supreme Sword Bone, it seems extremely useful to me no matter how you look at it.

A cultivator at the Refining Void Realm can subdue a sixth-order flying sword.

Moreover, with all nine immortal bones gathered, the Nine Heavens Bone Forging Technique will definitely be upgraded to another level, allowing his physical body to rival that of the top-tier body-forging cultivators.

"To forge the Supreme Sword Bone, one needs the Crimson Sword Grass and the Subtle Sword Flower, and then refine them with the Supreme Sword Heart. These divine objects are only found in the Seven Treasures Immortal Realm... This time, the chosen target is extremely suitable, the best choice to make a move in the dark."

Bai Zichen did not return to the Nine Void Immortal Realm, but instead went to the Seven Treasures Immortal Realm. One reason was to avoid the Dao Court, as he did not want to be involved in the power struggles among the higher-ups of the Dao Court due to his special clone.

This may involve the schemes and plans of truly powerful figures. Even if a cultivator at the Void Refinement stage possesses the supernatural power of time travel, they are no different from ants in the eyes of those people.

Subconsciously, he felt that there must be undercurrents in the Central Immortal Realm, and his small body would definitely not be able to withstand them.

On the other hand, the Seven Treasures Immortal Realm is the territory of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion, so choosing that place would allow them to witness the skills of the sword cultivators from the Earthly Immortal Realm and have a competition.

There is also the Heaven-Opening Sword Furnace here, which will provide an opportunity for the Purple Star Thunderclap Sword to awaken to the sixth rank.

If I have the chance, I'll revisit the story of the Heartless Sword Immortal.

Let's see what happened to this prodigy of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion back then that led him to descend to the mortal realm and leave behind a treasured legacy.

After flying for another year or so, they finally saw a giant rift in the unchanging starry sky, deep, wide and boundless.

It's like someone wielding a sword and slashing it into the sky, creating something out of thin air.

"In the Seven Treasures Immortal Realm, sword sects abound, and sword wielders from all realms flock here to vie for a path of righteous swordsmanship..."

Bai Zichen reviewed the description of the Seven Treasures Immortal Realm in the Daoist Longevity Hall, took a deep breath, and stepped into the chasm that separated the two realms.

During a rapid, weightless descent, countless lights and shadows flashed by, yet he still managed to grasp the fleeting moments of time.

A quarter of an hour later, the sky brightened, and they arrived at a pass filled with flying swords.

The sword light could be seen from thousands of miles away.

The sword intent soared to the heavens, sealing off the entire world, so that even mosquitoes and flies could not pass through.

Upon seeing this majestic pass, one will know that they have arrived in the Seven Treasures Immortal Realm.
