Begin the path of immortality from mortals

"Hey, fourth brother, you haven't ascended yet?"

Lingkong Cave Mansion is located at the border between Yue State and Yuanwu State. When Lu Tiandu returned to Yue State from Xi State, the first thing he did was to visit this old cave mansion.

This cave was later passed down to the Lu family. Only a small number of Lu family's core cultivators knew that this once famous trial site of the Yue Kingdom had become a huge asset of the family.

This cave is built on a secret spiritual vein and has a much higher concentration of spiritual energy than the outside world, making it a great place for cultivation. The most important thing is of course the various rare spiritual medicines that are rarely seen in the outside world that grow here, as well as the Sutra Pavilion and Treasure Pavilion in the pagoda in the center.

Nearly half of these spiritual medicines were ancient species that had long been extinct in the Tiannan Xiuxian world, and the Sutra Pavilion contained countless various techniques and secrets that could lead to the transformation of gods. As for the Treasure Pavilion, there were a large number of various materials, magic weapons, and ancient treasures, not to mention several imitation spiritual treasures.

It can be said that even the ten major sects of the Great Jin Dynasty's righteous and evil ways cannot compare to the Lu family in this regard.

As this is an important place of family inheritance, needless to say, there are people from the Lu family who practice in seclusion here all year round.

Therefore, when Lu Tiandu roughly observed the situation in this cave and appeared in front of the pagoda, Lu Tianxing and his wife, who were in charge of this cave, naturally discovered his traces.

There was a hint of doubt and joy in Lu Tianxing's tone, while Xiao Cui'er beside him stepped forward with a smile and bowed.

More than a hundred years ago, Lu Tiandu met the two of them specially on the eve of his ascension. In addition to leaving them a hundred top-grade spirit stones as the source of spiritual power for the Anti-Spirit Formation, he reminded them of some other things and then told them that they would meet again in the spirit world.

As a result, they didn't expect to see Lu Tiandu again in the human world.

"Third brother, Cui'er, it seems that you haven't relaxed your practice in these years."

Lu Tiandu looked at the two people's current cultivation level of the early stage of transformation and smiled slightly, "Let's go, let's talk inside."

After the three of them sat down in a quiet room somewhere in the stone tower, Lu Tiandu roughly explained the purpose of his visit.

Hearing that Lu Tiandu had actually descended from the spiritual world this time, Lu Tianxing and his wife naturally had different perspectives now, and they both took a deep breath at the same time.

Although they had long known that their cousin was extremely talented and his actions were extremely mysterious, their move to the lower world still surprised them.

After all, even in ancient times, the only way for the human world to communicate with the spiritual world was to transmit some information through the incense.

As for the arrival of the cultivators from the spiritual world during the ancient demonic calamity, if this world had not been facing a catastrophe, the humans, demons, and spirits from the spiritual world would not have gone to great lengths to send cultivators to the lower world to eliminate demons and defend the way.

Apart from this, there has never been any rumor of monks from the spiritual world descending to the mortal world.

"Fourth brother, what is your current level of cultivation?"

Lu Tianxing asked curiously.

"He had already reached the middle stage of Void Refining a few years ago!"

Lu Tiandu didn't hide anything and said bluntly.

"Hiss! Is the spiritual world's cultivation speed so fast?"

This time, not to mention Lu Tianxing's surprise, even Xiao Cui'er, who was listening quietly at the side, couldn't help but speak.

“It’s not that easy!”

Lu Tiandu shook his head. “Even in a place like Tianyuan City with abundant cultivation resources, it takes hundreds of years for a spiritual world cultivator to advance to a small realm. Moreover, it costs a lot to obtain these resources. Sometimes, many of them lose their lives during the mission…”

"You were also present when Senior Brother Xiang and Old Monster Feng sneaked into the spirit world. It has been more than three hundred years now. At that time, the two of them were at the peak of the early stage of the Spiritualization. They were also outstanding among the billions of cultivators in the human world. Even in the spirit world, they still have a good status among the ascended cultivators. Even so, it will probably take at least several decades for the two of them to advance to the late stage of the Spiritualization!"

"I see."

Lu Tianxing couldn't help but smile bitterly. This simple comparison immediately shattered his beautiful fantasy about the spirit world. "I originally thought that since you, my third brother, have the means to bring Cui'er and me to the spirit world, why not bring some family members with you? Then our Lu family can directly take root in the spirit world..."

Hearing Lu Tianxing's words, Lu Tiandu also chuckled.

It is naturally a very beautiful fantasy that one person can achieve enlightenment and the whole family can ascend to heaven.

But this obviously doesn't work in the mortal world with this kind of resource flow.

For a family of immortal cultivators to pass down their legacy, both talent and resources are equally important. Even if Lu Tian can help the Lu family solve the resource problem in the early stages, it is not possible for the hundreds of cultivators in the Lu family to continuously produce high-quality cultivators.

Rather than being lost in the crowd in the spiritual world, it is better to let them become the first family in the human world.

What's more, the environment in this human world thousands of years from now will definitely be much better than it is now. When the Lu family continues to have godsend cultivators sneaking in or ascending to the spiritual world, then the Lu family in the spiritual world will have Lu Tiandu's care and will have the foundation for taking off.

After hearing Lu Tiandu's decision, Lu Tianxing also agreed with it.

As long as the Lu family in the human world continues to prosper and has a steady stream of ascending monks, the Lu family in the spiritual world will be able to develop more easily with less equipment.

"Fourth brother, you may not know this, but Cui'er and I had a son a few years ago. His aptitude is pretty good, and he has a rare ice spirit root. We originally planned to train him to inherit the family. I don't know if he was brought to the spirit world this time. And my father..."

Lu Tianxing thought of these two closest relatives and asked.

There was no doubt that the couple wanted to follow Lu Tiandu to the spirit world. After all, over the years, they naturally understood that only by following Lu Tiandu's footsteps could they have a great opportunity.

Ever since the Anti-Spirit Formation came out that year, Lu Tiandu also gave them the opportunity to smuggle themselves in, so after the two of them advanced to the God Transformation stage, they put the cultivation of offspring as the first step.

According to their plan, after training their son Lu Jingxi to the middle and late stages of the Nascent Soul, they would be able to embark on the journey of sneaking into the spirit world without any worries.

Hearing that Jing Xi's nephew had already formed a pill before he was a hundred years old, Lu Tiandu also smiled and nodded:

"I wonder if Jingxi is married? Is he still virgin? If so, I'd like to find him a good match during this period. I have a great opportunity at the level of a spirit being, which I can give him as a gift! With this opportunity, it won't be difficult for him to go to the spirit world in the future, so let him train well in the human world!"

"It seems Jingxi is lucky!"

Hearing what Lu Tiandu said, Lu Tianxing and Xiao Cuier were pleasantly surprised. "This kid has been listening to your stories since he was born. Because of his good talent, he regards you as his idol and wants to become as famous as you in Tiannan. Therefore, he has been practicing hard in the family. I wonder how excited he is to meet your uncle this time!"

The decision to let Lu Jingxi stay in the human world to take charge of the family was in line with their previous arrangements.

Originally, they were not sure that their son would be able to advance to the divine realm in the future, but now that Lu Tiandu has come to the mortal world, they no longer have to worry about anything.

"As for my uncle, I'll see him later."

As for his uncle Lu Yongqing, Lu Tiandu had just learned from Lu Tianxing and his wife that with their help, he had advanced to the late Nascent Soul stage a few years ago.

Although the family still had the guardian spirit beast, the eighth-level Suanni, and a puppet in the late Nascent Soul stage, after Lu Tianxing and his wife left, it goes without saying that the Lu family's foundation was empty.

Therefore, according to his understanding of Lu Yongqing, he would definitely not go to the spirit world with them. If a family wants to develop for a long time, some people must make choices and sacrifices.

The Lu family has only been prosperous for a few hundred years. Apart from limited top-level combat power, the strength of the middle and high-level teams is still relatively weak.

If it had another thousand years to develop, things would be different.

During this period, we must have the foundation to protect the development of the entire clan.

Sure enough, when Lu Yongqing and Lu Jingxi came to Lingkong Cave with the help of the teleportation array and saw Lu Tiandu later, they were also surprised.

After listening to Lu Tiandu's arrangements for the Lu family, the young man Lu Jingxi did not look disappointed and said solemnly:

"Uncle, rest assured. I will carry forward the Lu family and live up to your reputation!"

"Great! Since my Lu family's Qilin has such ambitions, why should we worry about our Lu family not prospering? When you reach the spirit world in the future, your uncle will celebrate for you!"

As expected, Lu Yongqing did not mention the intention of going to the spirit world together.

At this time, Lu Tiandu looked at Lu Yongqing and said:

"Uncle, don't worry about not having the opportunity to see the spirit world in the future. When you train Jingxi, you can still use the reverse spirit passage to reach the spirit world. It will only take a thousand years..."

Lu Yongqing once took some longevity-enhancing spiritual items such as Huiyang Water and Fanming Pill, as well as some longevity secrets left by Lu Tiandu. Even if he did not advance to the stage of Divine Transformation, he could live to about two thousand years old, similar to Linghu.

Now he is only over 900 years old, and when he advances to the God Transformation stage, his life span will be greatly increased, and living for 3,000 years will not be a problem. In the future, when the vitality of heaven and earth is restored, it is very likely that he will advance to the middle and late stages of the God Transformation stage.

Lu Tiandu also mentioned the future situation in which the vitality of the human world will be restored and the evil will decline.

According to his guess, thousands of years later, there will be cultivators in this human world who can practice to the late stage of Spirit Transformation and ascend directly.

The Lu family has accumulated strength for three to five thousand years, and when the vitality of heaven and earth flourishes, they will still be able to maintain their leading advantage.

As for the predecessors who ascended to heaven earlier, such as Lu Tiandu and his Taoist companion, most of the cultivators who can cultivate to the realm of transformation of the spirit will choose to make friends with the Lu family.

Moreover, when he leaves this time, although Lu Tiandu will not come to this human world again in the future, he will leave behind things such as the incense that can communicate with the spiritual world in case of emergency.

What's more, within a thousand years, he will be able to advance to the Mahayana stage, and by then it will not be difficult to transmit objects across realms.

As for this human world, unless there is an accident, he will definitely not come here again in the future.

After all, it is with the help of the Divine Furnace of Creation, and the cost of two hundred million spirit stones back and forth is not a small amount.

As for other similar human worlds, Lu Tiandu will still travel there with Youluo in the future to look for Xuantian's things.

In addition, Lu Tiandu will also leave behind the body-refining techniques and protective gear-refining methods for cultivators without spiritual roots in the spiritual world to Huangfeng Valley, Yanyue Sect, and the Lu family to strengthen their foundation.

Next, Lu Tiandu strengthened the formation of this Lingkong Cave Mansion before leaving behind some resources and floating away.

Before Youluo came back, he just wanted to travel around the human world again.

A few days later, after receiving the message from Lu Tiandu, Lu Tianxing also came out of seclusion and went to the Yanyue Sect with the ability to transform into a spirit.

Not long after, a female cultivator in the late foundation building stage with natural spiritual roots from the Yanyue Sect became a Taoist couple with Lu Jingxi.

On their wedding night, they will also take the Yin-Yang Fruit given by Lu Tiandu.

If nothing unexpected happens, Yanyue Sect and Huangfeng Valley will have another pair of Taoist lovers who have reached the state of Divine Transformation in a few hundred years.

Yanyue Sect was founded by Nangong Ping and his master, so Lu Tiandu's move naturally also meant to protect Yanyue Sect.

Several months had passed since Lu Tiandu gave the Yin-Yang Fruit to Lu Jingxi and his wife. On this day, after receiving the news of Youluo and the girls' arrival, Lu Tiandu, who was traveling in Dajin, put away Youluo and appeared in the Stone Bead World again.

This time, Youluo has collected a piece of void fragment thousands of miles in size in the void outside the boundary.

This fragment is full of vitality. Various low-level exotic beasts live on it. There is no shortage of spiritual medicines that are useful to cultivators. There are also several mineral veins underground, which are just right as the cornerstone of the Immortal Fate Secret Realm.

"I didn't expect my husband to come to the human world this time!"

After all the ladies in Kunwu Holy Mountain met Lu Tian, ​​they were all extremely happy.

After all, except Linglong and Kongque, they all came from this human world, and they left the human world more than a hundred years ago, thinking that they would never have the chance to come back. But they ended up revisiting the old place, and they also had a kind of excitement of returning home in glory.

However, the women who have now advanced to the Nascent Soul stage can only feel a little regretful. After all, Lu Tian used the secret technique of using the Stone Furnace of Creation to conceal his cultivation level, which even he himself could not explain, let alone using it on his own women.

Upon hearing that Lu Tiandu was planning to build a secret realm for the inheritance of immortal ways so that the immortal ways of the ancient times could reappear in this human world in the future, the girls became very interested and expressed their opinions.

In this regard, Lu Tian naturally let them do what they wanted.

Lu Tian plans to make this secret fairyland appear in the boundless sea in the future.

When the secret realm is opened, it will emerge from the void and land on the sea surface near Xiguo, and when the trial is over, it will disappear into the void again with the help of the formation.

The girls have made great progress in refining equipment over the years, and they also have the reference of various floating formations in the spiritual world, so it is naturally not difficult for them to accomplish this task.

Moreover, according to Lu Tiandu's plan, the secret realm trial will be opened ten times, once every three hundred years. After three thousand years, this island will finally fall into the boundless sea and become a holy place for cultivation in the boundless sea.

As for the trial levels, there are four trial paths according to the four major realms of foundation building, elixir formation, Nascent Soul and Spirit Transformation. The rewards of each trial path are naturally different. The high ones include various spiritual treasures, mysterious arts of transformation or elixirs for breaking through the barriers, while the low ones include various hundreds of years old spiritual medicines, refining materials and so on.

The four trial paths cost a total of four thousand trial tokens to enter the secret realm.

Relatively speaking, the Foundation Establishment stage has the most trial tokens, and the God Transformation stage has the least trial tokens.

During each trial, each cultivator faces different levels. If they pass the trial, they will receive rewards, but if they fail, they will be directly expelled from Xianyuan Island.

Moreover, this kind of trial is only for inheritance. According to the setting of the women, whenever there is a fight among cultivators, it will be instantly spread out of Xianyuan Island.

As for the monks who have obtained the inheritance, the time and place of transmission are naturally different, which can be regarded as a disguised form of protection for these inheritors.

According to Lu Tiandu and the girls' idea, with the immortal way inheritance every three hundred years, after three thousand years, with the recovery of the vitality of heaven and earth and the reappearance of many immortal ways inheritance, it is very likely that the glory of the ancient immortal way will reappear in this world in the future!
