Begin the path of immortality from mortals

Two years later.

Holy Emperor City.

In a secret room in the belly of Kunwu Holy Mountain, Lu Tiandu, who was sitting cross-legged on a cushion, looked at the jade slip in his hand with a look of surprise, and murmured:
"After more than a hundred years, I have finally mastered the Taiji Xuanzhen Sword Art in the Taiji Xuanzhen Sword Sutra to the late Mahayana stage. I can switch to this technique later!"

"As for the deduction of my life-saving magic weapon, the Taiji Xuanzhen Sword Formation, there is no need to rush. I can deduce it slowly!"

"Now is a good time to come out and celebrate with the girls, and then go back to seclusion to transform your true energy!"

After spending more than a hundred years comprehending various mysterious skills and secret techniques, Lu Tiandu finally deduced this yin-yang attribute technique that suits his own needs. He was in a very good mood at the moment.

He then celebrated with the girls for more than a month before entering the secret room to begin practicing new skills.

After he has completely transformed his skills, the true energy in his body will also turn into yin and yang attributes.

At that time, combined with the innate yin-yang law spirit in his body, his own magical power will probably increase a lot.

Time flies, spring goes and winter comes, and another two years have passed.

On this day, Lu Tian, ​​who was still converting his true essence, received a message from Ye Xian, only to realize that the time for the True Spirit Ceremony, which is held once every three thousand years by the True Spirit family, was approaching.

Now, the three True Spirit families, the Ye family, the Feng family, and the Min family, which are close to him, each have at least four combined cultivators, so it is natural that they are determined to win this True Spirit Ceremony.

Lu Tiandu, a mid-stage Mahayana cultivator, can also establish his own clan and participate in this True Spirit Ceremony because of the Zhu Yan True Spirit bloodline he revealed when he killed the Black Owl King.

However, at his point, he naturally would not care about the few interests within the human race, let alone compete for interests with other fusion cultivators at the True Spirit Conference.

He had another reason for attending the True Spirit Conference this time.

The human race has existed for hundreds of thousands of years, and now has more than fifty families with true spirit bloodlines. Theoretically, in the long process of bloodline inheritance, from generation to generation, their true spirit bloodlines will become increasingly thin, and they may even become ordinary human beings without any special talents.

But for hundreds of thousands of years, the True Spirit Bloodline family has remained prosperous, and there are obviously some reasons.

The key point here is naturally how to maintain the true spiritual bloodline.

In fact, this matter is no secret within the Zhenling family.

The first method was a bit cruel, and it was to use secret techniques to make the family monks, who were about to reach their end of life, make a final sacrifice for the family, and forcibly separate their own blood essence containing the blood of the true spirit before they died.

In this way, those younger generations in the clan whose blood is weak can absorb the essence and blood left by the elders of the clan and strengthen their blood.

If the first method is to save money, then the second method is to increase revenue.

This is related to the True Spirit Ceremony that takes place once every three thousand years. After offering sacrifices to the Ten Thousand Spirit Beasts at the True Spirit Ceremony, they will obtain some new True Spirit Blood.

These true spirits and true blood can be used to strengthen bloodline and to refine certain secret elixirs of various races.

This is the key to the True Spirit Family maintaining its bloodline, prosperity, and standing tall among the human race for hundreds of thousands of years.

As for his participation in the True Spirit Conference this time, it was also for the True Spirit and True Blood.

Now his Jingzhe Jue has refined ten kinds of true spirits and true blood. As for the last two kinds of true blood, he has already made plans. One is naturally the eight-winged cicada's true blood in the body of his second innate true spirit, the time spirit Jin Chan'er.

More than a hundred years have passed, and now Jin Chan'er has reached the middle stage of the fusion realm. When he advances to the Mahayana realm in the future and becomes an adult, he can practice this Jingzhe transformation at any time.

The other is the true blood of the Nightmare Dragon, the ancestor of the "Demon Dragon" lineage.

In the future, a drop of Nightmare Dragon's true blood that fell from the fairyland will appear at the auction of the Helian Business Alliance. At that time, we can intercept this drop of true blood before the monks of Dragon Island.

Since he now has the true blood of the ancestor of the true dragon or the divine dragon in his body, it is naturally necessary to refine a drop of the true blood of the Nightmare Dragon.

The true blood of four adult true spirits, Youtian Kunpeng, Luohou, Zhuyan and Qilin, that he had refined before, as well as the true blood of two adult true spirits, Suiyuechan and Yanlong, that he will fuse in the future. By then, six of the twelve true spirit transformations that he has cultivated will be true blood of adult true spirits.

During these years of practice, he already knew that the strength of the Jingzhe Jue's power was closely related to the number of Jingzhe transformations achieved and the level of true blood refined in the body.

It was not difficult for him to cultivate the twelve changes of Jingzhe, but the key was how to replace the other non-adult true spirit and true blood in the body with adult true spirit and true blood.

Since it was temporarily difficult to find the six kinds of true blood, namely, Qingluan, Five-Colored Dragon, Xuanwu, Golden Winged Tiger, Five-Colored Phoenix and Five-Colored Peacock, in other places, he turned his attention to this True Spirit Conference.

To this end, he took the time a few years ago to refine some elixirs for True Immortal monks to improve their cultivation, and then see if he can exchange the required true blood from the "Beast of All Spirits".

If he could gather the true blood of twelve adult true spirits in the spirit world and perform the transformation of Jingzhe, with his current cultivation level of the middle stage of Mahayana, he might be able to kill a true immortal cultivator!

After leaving the secret room and saying hello to the girls, just as Lu Tiandu was about to follow Ye Yu to leave the mountain belly space, Ye Yu suddenly smiled and said:

"My husband, do you still remember Sister Xiaofeng who came to ask for medicine?"

"That fairy Xiaofeng? What's the matter?"

Lu Tiandu was a little confused.

As the Gu family was ranked fifth among the True Spirit families after the last True Spirit Ceremony, he had naturally heard about the Gu family from Ye Yu and others.

The Gu family’s current status is inseparable from the supreme elder Fairy Tianli who entered the fusion stage ten thousand years ago.

Of course, the Gu family now has more than just Fairy Tianli, who is a cultivator at the peak of the middle stage of the fusion realm. The head of the Gu family, Gu Xiaofeng, also advanced to the fusion stage more than a hundred years ago thanks to the elixirs such as the Nine-Hearted Spirit Ganoderma in the hands of the Yao Chi Palace.

As for his acquaintance with Fairy Xiaofeng of the Gu family, it was first during his Mahayana ceremony.

The last time I met this woman was three years ago.

Three years ago, this girl came to ask for medicine for her mother, Fairy Tianli.

For some unknown reason, Fairy Tianli was seriously injured in the wild world. If she didn't have a top-level healing elixir, it would probably take her a hundred years to recover.

The True Spirit Ceremony is about to be held, and this matter concerns the share of resources that the Gu family can obtain in the next three thousand years. Fairy Xiaofeng also knows that the strength of the Min family and the Feng family has greatly increased in recent years.

If she were to attend the ceremony alone, there would be no doubt that not only would she not be able to maintain her previous ranking, but her ranking would also drop by several places.

And if his mother had not been injured, the two combined monks would still find it difficult to maintain their previous rankings, but they would not drop too much.

The prerequisite is that his mother can recover from her injuries in a short period of time.

Because Lu Tiandu had previously taken out ten elixirs for breaking through to the Mahayana stage, and because of his close relationship with Ye Yu, the woman came to him to ask for medicine.

For Ye Yu's sake, he did not refuse and traded three Qingjing Pills to the woman.

Hearing Ye Yu mention this girl, Lu Tian wondered secretly that maybe after taking three Qingjing Pills, her mother's injuries have not recovered yet?

"It's nothing serious, she just brought her mother to thank you!"

Ye Yu blinked his eyes and smiled meaningfully, "They have been here for several months, but they have not seen you come out of retreat, so they have been waiting in the Holy Emperor City."

Lu Tiandu naturally understood what Ye Yu meant, smiled and shook his head, and said:
"In that case, let's go meet them and then head to Wanlingtai together!"

Seeing her man's noncommittal expression, Ye Yu smiled coquettishly and said nothing more. She accompanied Lu Tiandu out of Kunwu Holy Mountain and headed to the Holy Emperor Palace.

In a hall of the Holy Emperor Palace, Lu Tiandu met the Fairy Xiaofeng and her mother, the Fairy Tianli.

Fairy Xiaofeng is a beautiful young woman with a slim figure, dressed in a blue palace dress and with a fair face.

There is always a faint smile on her beautiful face, and her every move is graceful, giving people the feeling of a beautiful girl from a small family.

Next to him was a young woman in palace dress who also looked to be in her twenties. She had eyebrows like a crescent moon, calm eyes, and a different temperament in her plump and slender figure.

Similar to the mother and daughter of the Ye family, the two look more like sisters than mother and daughter.

"I am Tianli, thank you for your help, Senior! If you need me any help in the future, please let me know!"

Fairy Tianli bowed and looked at Lu Tiandu with a hint of curiosity in her beautiful eyes.

She was not with the human race for more than 200 years, and she was still extremely shocked that Lu Tiandu, the Tianjiao Dharma Cultivator who was famous for killing the Black Owl Queen, had also advanced to the Mahayana stage. Not to mention the various things that happened after Lu Tiandu's Mahayana ceremony, especially the forced dissolution of the Holy Island, which caused a sensation in the two races.

As for the fairy Xiaofeng standing aside, a blush appeared on her jade-like face. She looked at Lu Tiandu with a little shyness and greeted him softly.

Lu Tiandu naturally understood the strangeness of this woman's expression.

As soon as they had close contact three years ago, the woman sensed something strange in his body.

As a result, this woman took the initiative to approach him again, and seemed to enjoy the strange feeling that his yin-yang body brought her.

Of course, Lu Tian could see some of her thoughts at a glance.

"No need to be so polite, we can just address each other as peers!"

Lu Tiandu smiled slightly, flicked his sleeves, picked up the two women, and while greeting them, he looked at a beautiful woman in black robe standing next to Ye Xian in the hall.

It was Ye Miao, the daughter of the Ye family.

When she looked at him before, she did not conceal the resentment in her eyes.

Over the years, Lu Tian naturally understood her feelings, and Ye Xian and Ye Yu also frequently hinted that he should find time to take Ye Miao in.

In that case, let’s take this girl in after we return from this True Spirit Ceremony!

Just as Lu Tiandu was talking to Ye Miao, Fairy Tianli started talking to Ye Yu with a smile.

While congratulating Ye Yu on advancing to the late stage of fusion, she was naturally quite shocked.

I heard from my daughter before that Ye Yu displayed his cultivation level of the late stage of fusion at the Mahayana ceremony in Lu Tiandu, which really caused a sensation in both clans!

At this moment, she was also shocked!

She also had great luck. She entered the stage of fusion ten thousand years ago, and after just eight thousand years, she cultivated to the peak of the middle stage of fusion.

Over the past thousand years, she has been preparing to break through to the late stage of fusion. This trip to the wilderness is also to find some spiritual materials needed to refine a treasure for overcoming the tribulation.

As a result, he almost died.

And Ye Yu, a junior, went from the late stage of refining emptiness to the late stage of fusion in less than a thousand years. What an amazing opportunity it was!
As she spoke, she couldn't help but secretly glance at Lu Tiandu again.

This strange man who made her daughter unable to forget him the moment she saw him really made her curious!

Moreover, listening to his daughter's words, it seems that Min Yan of the Min family also achieved the late stage of fusion at about the same time, and Min Yan's sister Min Rou's middle stage of fusion was also known to others.

Add to that Feng Yi from the Feng family who also quietly advanced to the late stage of fusion!
These women, who were her juniors before, made rapid progress in their cultivation in a short period of time, which made her secretly jealous!

There is no doubt that their current achievements are all related to this man Lu Tiandu!
Obviously, in this True Spirit Ceremony, the Ye family will become the number one family with the help of their two late-stage fusion cultivators.

The Long family, the Min family, and the Feng family are all two high-end combat forces in the late and middle stages of fusion, and they will undoubtedly occupy the second to fourth places.

The Lin family and the Feng family also have cultivators in the middle stage of fusion.

Among them, the Feng family has only one cultivator in the middle stage of fusion. If the Feng family has not had any new cultivator in the early stage of fusion in recent years, their Gu family, with the addition of a new cultivator in the early stage of fusion this time, would have a great chance of surpassing the Feng family and maintaining the sixth place.

"It would have been great if such a remarkable man could have met Xiaofeng after he ascended to heaven!"

When this thought flashed through Fairy Tianli's mind, she remembered the close relationship between Ye Xian, Ye Yu and Lu Tiandu of the Ye family, which her daughter had hinted at. She felt inexplicably panicked and her eyes became moist.

After some casual chatting, the cultivators from the Ye family and the Gu family set off together for the Wanling Terrace.

More than a month later, they found themselves in a huge hidden valley surrounded by mountains.

At this moment, inside the valley, in a forbidden light curtain, a huge stone platform with a radius of about 1 mile was extremely conspicuous.

This stone platform is round in shape, and the ground is paved with huge green stones, but it is slightly blackened, and seems to be quite old.

At the edge of the stone platform, there were tall flags of different colors, emitting layers of light, covering the entire square in a huge light shield over a hundred feet high.

At this moment, the stone platform was surrounded by groups of people.

There are as many as two or three hundred people and as few as only a dozen people. They are different True Spirit families.

The seats closest to the stone platform belong to the five major True Spirit families from the previous session, among which the Long, Lin and Feng families have already taken their seats.

In addition to Long Yan who was resting with his eyes closed, there was a man in a black robe next to him. He was a middle-stage fusion being with a slightly red face and a deep purple scar on his forehead. He looked very ferocious.

This person is a supreme guest elder that the Long family had recently recruited, a cultivator named Hui who was said to have practiced the top-level magic technique "Qingmang Jue".

Next to the cultivator named Hui was another newly promoted cultivator from the Long family who was in the early stage of fusion.

Not far from the core cultivator of the Long family sat a person from the third-ranked Lin family.

The Lin family is a family composed entirely of male cultivators.

The eldest elder of the Lin family is a man with long hair wearing a dark green robe and a strange silver ring on his head. He has a delicate appearance like a woman and also has the cultivation level of the middle stage of the fusion.

The eldest elder of the Lin family had some grudges against Ye Xian before, but ever since Ye Xian advanced to the late stage of fusion, this man naturally behaved himself.

Beside him, there was also a Lin family cultivator in the early stage of fusion.

The last party is from the Feng family, who ranked fourth in the previous session.

The Feng family's supreme elder is a horse-faced old man who has reached the middle stage of fusion cultivation.

He was wearing a green robe, holding a black cane in both hands, and his eyes were a little gloomy.

Because of the competition for the fourth and fifth place in the last session, the two elders of the Feng family and the Gu family got angry with each other.

Originally, the great elder of the Feng family was prepared to continue competing with Fairy Tianli of the Gu family, but when he saw the people coming from the Min family and the Feng family, he knew that something was wrong!

Next to him was a strange man wearing half a bronze mask, revealing only half of his baby-like delicate face, and a handsome man in gorgeous clothes. These two were the two new supreme elders of the Lin family in recent years, and both had reached the initial stage of fusion cultivation.

I thought that in the past three thousand years, the Feng family had two new cultivators who had advanced to the early stage of fusion, and that they would be able to show their skills this time and move the family ranking up one place. But now, I am afraid that they can't even maintain the previous ranking.

Behind the five great families, surrounding the stone platform were cultivators from other True Spirit families.

The most prominent among them are people from the Min family and the Feng family.

Min Yan, a Mahayana cultivator disguised as a late-stage fusion cultivator, is accompanied by Min Rou, a middle-stage fusion cultivator.

With the appearance of the two, everyone knew that this time the Min family had the confidence to compete for the top three.

In fact, the Min family still has two cultivators in the early stage of fusion, but this time Min Yan is present, so there is naturally no need to dispatch them.

Next to the Min family, Feng Yi, a newly appeared late-stage fusion cultivator, shocked all the cultivators present as soon as he arrived.

They were already shocked by the news that Min Yan had advanced to the late stage of fusion a few years ago, but now even Feng Yi has advanced to the late stage of fusion!

Add to that Feng Lin who is in the middle stage of fusion, now even the low-key Feng family has become so powerful?

Obviously, everyone understands that this True Spirit Ceremony will involve a real fight between dragons and tigers!
Among these medium-sized True Spirit families, there are also two or three people in the early stage of fusion.

Apart from these top-level True Spirit families that have fusion cultivators, the rest are basically True Spirit families that have void-refining cultivators.

In these years, with the birth of six cultivators in the late stage of fusion, namely Lin Luan, Liu Qing, Ye Yu, Min Yan, Feng Yi and Zen Master Jin Yue, cultivators in the late stage of fusion have flocked out of the human race as if they were free!

However, anyone who knew some of the inside story was secretly surprised at Lu Tiandu's generosity.

Lu Tiandu killed three human cultivators in the late stage of fusion, and six more cultivators in the late stage of fusion were born because of him!
No wonder he didn't take the late-stage fusion monks on the Holy Island seriously! (End of this chapter)
