Begin the path of immortality from mortals

"I wonder what plans Brother Jiang has after he survived this great calamity?"

Lu Tiandu understood what Qing Yuanzi meant from his eyes, and asked directly without any ambiguity.

"Friend Lu, do you still hope that I can return to the human race?"

Qing Yuanzi also understood what Lu Tiandu meant, "I wonder if the human race has changed in the past five hundred years?"

He couldn't help but recall the first time he met Lu Tiandu.

At that time, Lu Tiandu wanted to invite him to return to the human race and jointly strengthen the human race.

At that time, he politely refused Lu Tiandu on the grounds that he was in the Styx to delay the heavenly calamity and could not get away.

In fact, what he didn’t say was that his concerns were not only about his own natural tribulation, but also about man-made tribulation.

This matter is related to the Changyuan clan, or more precisely, it is related to the Changyuan clan body that he forcibly merged with.

Although the Changyuan clan is only a medium-sized clan, all of its members are incredibly talented, and there are three to five Mahayana monks in the clan. They are simply not something that the human race can afford to provoke.

On the one hand, he had no plans to return to the human race at that time, and on the other hand, the human race really could not give him more help.

His return to the human race can only bring unexpected disasters to the human race.

Therefore, he had never thought about returning to the human race, even if he could safely survive this catastrophe.

However, when Lu Tian mentioned this issue again this time, his mentality had also changed a little.

The key to this matter is naturally Lu Tiandu, a mid-stage Mahayana cultivator, and the mysterious late-stage Mahayana cultivator who appeared in the Styx with Lu Tiandu that year.

"Of course. In my opinion, if our human race wants to rise in the spiritual world, every Mahayana cultivator is extremely important, not to mention that you are a mid-stage Mahayana cultivator!"

Lu Tiandu nodded and said, "If fellow Taoists join us, our human race will have more foundation!"

He is a member of his family who knows his own affairs.

Although he and the grown-up women in his harem are enough for the human race to dominate the Fengyuan Continent, this highlight moment will be very short.

After all, he will eventually take the women away from the spiritual world within ten thousand years.

Without him and the women in his harem, the human race in the spiritual world, which has not yet truly grown up, will undoubtedly be like fireworks. After a brief burst, it will most likely be beaten back to its original form.

This was naturally not what he wanted to see.

As for cultivating younger generations of Mahayana cultivators of the human race, Qing Yuanzi, who has now reached the middle stage of Mahayana cultivation, is obviously a good choice.

It is not difficult to cultivate it to the late Mahayana stage before ascending.

As for some of the aftereffects of Qing Yuanzi's forced fusion with the alien cultivators, especially the heavenly tribulation, he has the memories of Taoist Qizhe and there is still a way to solve it.

After all, this is not a difficult matter in the True Immortal Realm.

As long as this problem is solved, Qing Yuanzi's subsequent great tribulations will return to normal levels, instead of being as deadly as they are now.

After all, Qing Yuanzi, who is only 20,000 years old, is still very young among the Mahayana cultivators, and it is not difficult for him to persist in passing through ten or twenty great heavenly tribulations.

However, he would naturally not give all these benefits to Qing Yuanzi all at once. After all, doing business that is too much for others will easily make others think too much.

Then he introduced the changes that the human race has undergone over the years.

Qing Yuanzi was quite surprised to hear that Lu Tiandu had invited a Mahayana cultivator from the Thunder Continent to join the human race.

With three Mahayana monks on the surface, the human race has, to some extent, already had the foundation to become a middle-class ethnic group.

Qing Yuanzi also became curious about the various things happening in the Yao Chi Palace and the Crystal Clan cultivators.

As for the demise of the Yuanchen Society and the dissolution of the Holy Island, these were not big deals in Qing Yuanzi's eyes and he did not ask much.

What concerned Qing Yuanzi the most was the fact that this demonic calamity came 30,000 years earlier than expected.

However, after hearing that both the human and demon races had already made various preparations, he suppressed his curiosity.

"In addition, if you are willing to return to the human race, I have a True Immortal Realm Talisman in my hand that I am willing to give to you. With the help of this Talisman, you will be able to survive this great calamity without any accidents!"

"As for the previous transaction, we can just trade according to the agreement!"

After Lu Tiandu finished saying these words, he introduced the “Thousand Knots Purple Lotus”, a magical talisman recorded on the outer pages of the Golden Palace Jade Book.

This talisman was the last talisman on the outer page of the Golden Palace Jade Book, which recorded the art of talismans, that he first obtained.

This talisman is not only a Mahayana defensive talisman, but also very useful against thunder disasters.

Obviously, this talisman was prepared by Bai Zaoshan for the outer disciples who had not yet become immortals.

The thousand-knotted purple lotus on this page of the jade book and another Mahayana-level spiritual talisman, the colorful thousand illusion talisman, were also refined by the women over the years, and he carried a few of them with him.

In the future, he will give a few cards to Mo Jianli and Ao Xiao before they overcome their tribulation.

However, the two of them had the Xuantian remnant treasure he had given them before, so their chances of surviving the tribulation had greatly increased.

"I didn't expect that fellow Taoist actually had such a magical talisman!"

Hearing this, Qing Yuanzi was immediately surprised. "Since you are so generous to me, what else can I say? After I get through this great calamity, I will finish some personal matters and will definitely come to the human race to look for you before the demonic calamity..."

In fact, with the more than 30 rare spiritual materials and spiritual objects brought by Lu Tiandu, combined with the various tribulation-surviving secret techniques and arrangements he has practiced over the years, he is already 60 to 70 percent sure of surviving the tribulation.

With the addition of the Thousand Knots of Purple Lotus, his mind, which had been tense for thousands of years, finally relaxed at this moment.

However, he soon thought of something and spoke frankly about how he had offended the Changyuan clan before.

He also mentioned the last time when Huang Yuanzi came to attack and kill him when he was undergoing a tribulation.

According to his guess, during this tribulation, Huang Yuanzi would probably come back for revenge.

"This matter is simple. Daoist friend, just rest assured and survive the tribulation. I am here. If any Mahayana cultivators from the Changyuan clan dare to come here, let them stay here forever!"

Lu Tiandu said in a calm tone.

In fact, he was quite familiar with the feud between Qing Yuanzi and Huang Yuanzi.

When Qing Yuanzi was seriously injured in the wilderness, he was forcibly merged with a cultivator from the Chang Yuan clan. This gave him a new life and at the same time, he relied on the talents of the cultivator from the Chang Yuan clan to gain various benefits, which led to his current achievements.

However, the Changyuan clan member who Qing Yuanzi forcibly merged with was not an ordinary person. His cousin noticed that something was wrong with his brother, and later confirmed that his brother's body was forcibly taken over by Qing Yuanzi.

Because this cousin had done Huang Yuanzi a great favor, this was the reason why Huang Yuanzi had always wanted to seek revenge on Qing Yuanzi and take back his cousin's body.

In addition, Huang Yuanzi's original name was not Huang Yuanzi. In order not to forget his great hatred, he changed his name to a name similar to Qing Yuanzi.

In the original plot, Qing Yuanzi's great calamity was delayed until eight hundred years later. Even though Qing Yuanzi had made many preparations, Huang Yuanzi and the Taoist Sanquan and the Immortal Heavenly Master he invited still took the opportunity to attack him.

If Han Li had not taken action at the right time, it would be hard to say whether Qing Yuanzi could successfully survive this disaster.

Now that Qing Yuanzi has agreed to return to the human race, although he will not directly help him overcome the thunder tribulation, he doesn't mind helping him get rid of this kind of human tribulation.

Although Qing Yuanzi was in the wrong in this grudge, since he was a human being, he would naturally help his relatives instead of others!
"Thank you so much, fellow Daoist! I will need several years to prepare before I can induce the thunder tribulation. I'm sorry for the hard work during this period!"

Qing Yuanzi bowed solemnly. Originally, in order to successfully overcome the tribulation, he would have used various excuses to lure away the other Mahayana monsters in the Styx, but with Lu Tiandu, a mid-stage Mahayana expert as his guardian, he didn't have to do that.

Later, after the two completed the transaction and Lu Tiandu presented Qing Yuanzi with the Thousand Knot Purple Lotus, he only stayed for a moment before saying goodbye and leaving Qing Yuanzi's cave.

First, Qing Yuanzi had obtained these materials and needed to retreat immediately to prepare for the tribulation, so he had no time to entertain him;
Secondly, since Qing Yuanzi is about to undergo a tribulation, it is naturally not a good idea for cultivators to stay nearby when others are undergoing a tribulation. After all, the two of them are not friends for life and death, and their relationship is not close enough to the point of trusting each other with life and death.

After randomly setting up a cave more than ten thousand miles away from Qing Yuanzi's cave, Lu Tiandu also took out the Taiqing Immortal Liquid and other cultivation items and began to practice.

In a blink of an eye, ten years later.

After receiving Qing Yuanzi's sound transmission note, Lu Tiandu came out of retreat and stood on a hilltop, gazing into the distance at a valley thousands of miles away.

This valley is the place chosen by Qing Yuanzi to overcome his tribulation.

Not only did he prepare many means of overcoming the tribulation in the valley, he also set up hundreds of powerful restrictions within thousands of miles around the valley to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the opportunity to harm him.

At this moment, in the center of the valley, a huge platform rose from the ground. It was emerald green all over, as if it was built directly with giant green trees. It was divided into seven floors, and each floor had more than a dozen magical instruments of different styles placed on the edge.

On the highest level of the giant platform, flags were fluttering. There were hundreds of flags of different sizes densely inserted, vaguely forming a very mysterious magic formation.

These flags have different colors, some are shining with rosy clouds, and some are billowing with black mist, but they all exude an extremely amazing aura, and it is obvious that each one is an extraordinary treasure.

In the center of these flags, there was a silver cushion about a foot in diameter placed there. At this moment, Qing Yuanzi was sitting cross-legged quietly on it.

Within a few miles of the giant platform, there stand statues made of different materials, some in human form, some in animal form, but each one is lifelike and half-kneeling towards the giant platform. There seem to be thousands of them.

As for the entire valley, it was paved with colorful jade bricks, making the valley vaguely shrouded in a layer of light glow.

After half a day, the gray clouds in the sky began to roll gradually, and a faint strange aura emerged in the valley.

Obviously, Qing Yuanzi began to trigger a thunder tribulation!

At the same time, above a pile of rocks extremely far away from the valley where Qing Yuanzi had set up the place for tribulation, a strong wind blew in the sky, and two pitch-black claws more than ten feet long stretched out from the void and suddenly grabbed the void on both sides.

With a "swish" sound, the void was torn apart by two giant claws, revealing a space crack over a thousand feet long.

The black shadow flickered, and a figure as big as a hill stepped out from the crack. Then, there was a flash of light, and two other shocking rainbows shot out closely behind it.

After the light faded, a young Taoist priest with dark green snake patterns all over his face and a skinny man in a yellow robe appeared in the escaping light.

When the black gas on the huge figure dissipated, it turned out to be a dark giant with curved horns on his head and several rows of short bone spurs on his back.

His face looked like any other man, and he even looked a bit honest, but the aura he exuded gave people a terrifying feeling that was almost suffocating.

"Fellow Daoist Immortal has great magical powers. He can tear the void apart just by changing his body, allowing us to enter this space easily!"

The man in yellow robe looked around and said to the giant with a smile on his face.

"Haha, this is all thanks to Brother Huang for using the Nine Illusions Ruyi Gate to loosen up the power of this space interface by about 80%. Otherwise, how could I have done this alone?"

The giant laughed heartily, and a layer of black flames rose from his body. His figure shrank rapidly and turned into a giant man two meters tall.

“Hehe, that’s true, but if you hadn’t used your great magical power to break through most of the interface power, it would still be impossible to enter this place.”

The man in yellow robe said with a chuckle.

The three of them chatted for a few more words before escaping together and heading straight for the place where Qing Yuanzi was going to transcend his tribulation.

Among the three people, the skinny man in the yellow robe was none other than Huang Yuanzi of the Changyuan clan. No one knew how he knew the time when Qing Yuanzi would transcend his tribulation, and he came to the door with such accuracy!

The tall giant and the young Taoist priest with dark green snake patterns on his face beside him are "Immortal Lord" and "Sanquan Taoist", two Mahayana monks from other races, who were invited by him to help.

On the other side, as Qing Yuanzi activated the thunder tribulation that had been suppressed for a thousand years, red clouds suddenly rolled in the sky.

The red clouds rolled thicker and thicker, and from a distance they almost covered the entire sky without leaving a single trace, but a faint breath of heat could be vaguely seen from within.

Not long after, after a flash of red light in the clouds, clusters of hot light balls condensed out, and after a loud bang, they fell like rain.

Facing these fire and lightning balls, Qing Yuanzi casually pointed his finger, and a thousand-foot-long green sword energy rushed up to meet them...

After a moment, when tens of thousands of light balls had fallen, thunder was heard in the sky, and purple-gold arcs of electricity emerged again, turning into countless lightning arrows that struck down.

At the same time, the black strong wind condensed and pressed down in a pitch-black manner.

The wind had not really fallen yet, and there was a "hissing" sound inside, and waves of translucent wind blades slashed out wildly.

For a moment, the sky was filled with faint white light.

At this moment, Lu Tiandu used his spiritual sense to sweep and found three invisible figures approaching slowly.

"It seems that Huang Yuanzi and the helpers he invited have also arrived! In this case, I will kill them one by one when they make a move, and warn the others at the same time!"

This thought flashed through Lu Tiandu's mind, and his spiritual sense swept over the three Mahayana monks who were watching somewhere 100,000 miles away.

These three people are obviously Mahayana monks who are here to avoid disaster. As for their true attitude, it is difficult to guess.

In the original plot, although Qing Yuanzi transferred all the Mahayana monks away from this place under various pretexts, later Jin Yanhou secretly returned and hid aside, which was obviously ill-intentioned.

But now Jin Yanhou has long fallen, so there is naturally no trace of him here.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. The thunder and lightning from the sky became more and more violent, and Qing Yuanzi's great tribulation had reached a critical moment.

At this moment, Huang Yuanzi and the other two discussed it, unleashed their invisibility powers, and flew towards the valley without concealment.

"The one who killed you is Lu Tiandu of the human race!"

Suddenly, an indifferent voice came to the ears of the three people.

"Oh no, this Qing Yuanzi has helpers!"

Upon hearing this, before the three people with changing expressions could react, three brilliant sword lights, one black, one white, and one blue, suddenly appeared in the void and slashed down.

The three screams stopped abruptly, and six corpses appeared in the void.

Immediately afterwards, a flash of light appeared on the corpse, and the Nascent Souls of Huang Yuanzi and the other two appeared out with frightened expressions.

Just as the three people's Nascent Souls were about to escape in panic, a huge silver hand that covered the sky grabbed down from the void.

At this moment, this piece of void seemed to be shattered by the silver hand.

Not only were the Nascent Souls of the three people completely powerless to resist, but even their bodies disappeared in an instant.

“This Hand of God is truly remarkable!”

Seeing this scene, Lu Tiandu, who emerged from the void, smiled.

After putting away the three and a half ninth-grade immortal artifacts, Lu Tiandu looked at the other three Mahayana cultivators on the other side who now had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

The next moment, the three frightened Mahayana monks disappeared in a flash without any intention of meeting each other.

Obviously, even the mid-stage Mahayana strongmen among them had not discovered that the killing god Lu Tiandu was hiding near where Qing Yuanzi was undergoing the tribulation!
Killing an early Mahayana cultivator with one sword, it is obvious that Lu Tian is not a late Mahayana cultivator, or the flying sword in his hand is a Xuantian treasure!
Neither possibility is something they are willing to provoke.

Seeing the three people leave, Lu Tiandu merged into the void again and waited quietly! (End of this chapter)
