Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 1159 A Thousand Years of Seclusion
After returning to the Dao Palace, Li Qing began to cultivate the alchemy techniques inherited from the Doushuai Palace, which he had obtained from the Lingxiao Immortal Realm.

This is a supreme immortal technique. Although it is not yet complete, it can still benefit him immensely.

This alchemy technique allows him to plunder the creation of heaven and earth and refine a supreme elixir within his immortal body, thereby further advancing his immortal cultivation.

In particular, he also possesses a Moon Spirit Cicada, a celestial cicada born from the essence of heaven and earth. If a true immortal were to refine it directly, it could open a celestial aperture.

Although Li Qing was not yet a true immortal, he was able to use the alchemy techniques of the Doushuai Palace to completely plunder the essence of the immortal cicada and refine it into a great immortal pill within his body!
This was the only way he could think of in a short time to break the blockade and forcibly ascend to the realm of True Immortal. At that time, the great tribulation of becoming an immortal would also descend. Once he passed through it, Li Qing would be able to ascend to immortality.

However, if he did that, the supreme beings of the upper realm might become aware of it and discover all the secrets about him.

Once the identity of the Demon Lord's successor is exposed, he will die without a burial place in the Upper Realm.

Therefore, he needs to find more beings at the peak of the late Mahayana stage, similar to True Spirit Kings. These powerful beings have reached the end of the mortal realm, but due to the blockade of the heaven and earth environment, they are unable to step into the immortal realm.

At that time, he forcibly broke through the blockade, and then caused other beings in the late Mahayana stage to simultaneously trigger the Great Tribulation of Immortality, ascending together to the Upper Realm, completely muddying the waters.

As long as they can successfully reach the Immortal Realm, Li Qing and the Demon Lord will have plenty of ways to hide themselves, completely resolve the problem of the Primal World Seed's resurgence, and eliminate any future troubles.

"The only good news is that even at the half-immortal level, we can barely suppress the resurrected primordial world seed. In the short term, we don't need to worry about the world seed completely resurrecting and alarming those supreme Dao Ancestors in the Immortal Realm."

"The most important thing right now is to get rid of the suppression this place is putting on me."

Li Qing murmured something, then sat cross-legged in the Wuji Cave Heaven, studying the alchemy techniques of the Doushuai Palace while trying various methods to counteract the suppression of heaven and earth.

He is now at the half-immortal realm, and his physical body has been completely transformed into an immortal body. The unopened immortal apertures still contain the medicinal power of the immortal bamboo shoots. In the future, as he ascends in the realm of immortality, his immortal apertures will open one by one, and the medicinal power of these immortal bamboo shoots will gradually enter his body, helping him to achieve a true Xuanxian body.

He is simply too powerful now, and even the world here is resisting him. The Great Dao is suppressing him, reducing his cultivation, and trying to force Li Qing back to the mortal realm.

There will naturally be no problems in the short term. With his powerful strength, Li Qing can even suppress the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

However, if this problem is not resolved within tens of thousands of years, Li Qing will be subjected to terrifying suppression, which he will be unable to avoid no matter where he is, as if he is carrying the entire spirit world on his back.

Li Qing attempted to use the law of cause and effect to sever the causal connection between himself and the universe in order to circumvent the suppression of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

However, this is only a temporary solution; he is still living in this world and it is impossible for him to sever all causal connections.

Thus, Li Qing tried various methods, even resorting to many secret techniques from the immortal realm, but he still could not completely escape the suppression of this world against him.

"Perhaps there is only one way: to use a Chaos Treasure to achieve self-sealing, and it must be a Chaos Treasure born in this world from the beginning."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qing slightly flipped his wrist and took out the Hun Tian Bao Seal.

The Chaos Seal floated and spun in his palm, emitting a hazy, chaotic mist.

The Chaos Seal is a supreme treasure born in this world, and it is exceptionally compatible with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Li Qing tried to seal himself with the Chaos Seal.

boom!
A terrifying power poured down from this treasure seal. He only tried to activate it slightly, and it unleashed the strongest power of this Chaos Treasure, far exceeding the power that Ling Xuzi could unleash when he activated the Chaos Treasure Seal.

Even so, these forces could not cause any harm to Li Qing, and he was completely unharmed.

"It has some effect, but it's still far from enough."

There was no way around it; he was simply too powerful now, a half-immortal. Even the top-ranked Chaos Heaven Seal couldn't allow him to seal himself off.

"We need to find at least two more Chaos Treasures that rank in the top ten of the Chaos Myriad Spirits Ranking, and at the same time activate three Chaos Treasures to seal themselves. Only in this way can we completely avoid the suppression of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth."

This matter is extremely difficult. The top ten treasures on the Chaos Myriad Spirits Ranking have all disappeared without a trace. There is not a single one with a clear whereabouts. It is even rumored that some of them may have been taken by certain beings and ascended to the upper realm.

At this point, Li Qing had no choice but to temporarily abandon this idea and decide to focus all his energy and attention on cultivating the art of immortal pills.

As long as he can refine the Moon Spirit Cicada into a Heaven and Earth Great Pill, he can become a True Immortal at any time, gain the power to break the seal of this world, and ascend to the Upper Realm.

And so, time passed leisurely, and three hundred years went by in the blink of an eye.

Wuji Cave Heaven fell into complete silence over the past three hundred years. Even Li Qing's personal disciple, Li Qiyin, never entered it once. Only a beautiful figure in ice blue was constantly watching over Li Qing, who was in seclusion.

Over the course of these three hundred years, the human race has become increasingly prosperous, and human races from other continents have come to join them, allowing the human race to firmly establish itself as the number one race on the Dao Stele.

In the cultivation world of the human race, a number of outstanding talents have emerged one after another.

As for Li Qing's other disciples, with the full support of the Dao Palace, they all successfully advanced to the Integration Stage and each had their own title.

After sensing this, Li Qing fulfilled his promise, devoting a wisp of his mind to easily refine three Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures, which he then gifted to Wan Hong and the others.

As for his personal disciple Li Qiyin, her cultivation has also progressed extremely quickly. With the inheritance of the Taiyin Heavenly Venerable, she has cultivated to the point of being close to the late stage of the Integration Realm in just a few hundred years. It won't be long before she advances to the Mahayana Realm.

The second Taiyin Tianzun may be about to be born.

Of course, over the past three hundred years, the name of the Human Race's Limitless Celestial Venerable has been the most resounding, shaking the heavens and myriad realms, known to everyone!
This is a true immortal living in the mortal world, a genuine immortal. Countless powerful beings at the Mahayana stage want to pay homage to him, but dare not go rashly.

However, they all knew that this human immortal had only met with three true spirit kings in recent years, and they were far from qualified to go and pay homage to him.

And so, another five hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.

The human race is becoming increasingly prosperous, and its territory has tripled compared to the past. The southern part of Tianyuan Continent has fallen under the control of the Dao Palace.

Half of the resources that Li Qing plundered from the Three-Eyed Sacred Clan were invested in the expansion of the human race's territory, playing an extremely significant role.

Magnificent immortal cities rose up one after another, and a large number of precious spirit stones and spirit gold mines were also developed, making the human race's foundation extremely profound.

It is worth mentioning that, apart from the original three Mahayana-stage Celestial Venerables, the human race now has two more Mahayana cultivators from other continents who have joined the Dao Palace. Both of these Mahayana cultivators are reclusive and cultivate in seclusion, and their fame is not widespread.

In that same year, a powerful aura surged forth from the already rebuilt Refining Heaven Pavilion, followed by a heavenly tribulation. The Pavilion Master of Refining Heaven was beginning his attempt to break through to the Great Ascension stage!
The weather changed drastically, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became restless. It was easy to tell that this was an attempt to break through to the Mahayana stage.

The carefree Celestial Venerable slowly stepped out of the Dao Palace, gazing at the distant center where spiritual energy converged, and sighed, "Times have changed. In the past, at this time, I would have to be on edge, fearing that a Mahayana cultivator from another race would come to interfere. Now, I can finally relax."

This violent commotion lasted for a long time. By the time the Great Ascension Heavenly Tribulation gathered high in the sky, the Refining Heaven Pavilion Master's breakthrough should be successful.

As expected, the Great Tribulation dissipated, and the sixth Celestial Venerable of the human race was born!

For a time, the entire human race rejoiced and celebrated the appearance of the sixth Mahayana Celestial Venerable.

However, everyone knows that the current status of the human race is inseparable from the Wuji Heavenly Venerable who has already touched the realm of immortality. As long as Li Qing is alive, the human race will prosper!
During the nine hundred years that Li Qing had been in seclusion, the Moon Spirit Cicada was showing signs of dying out on its own.

Once this immortal cicada emerges from the earth, it can only live for a thousand years. After a thousand years, the Moon Spirit Cicada will dissipate into the world and vanish into nothingness.

Li Qing seized this last bit of time and finally comprehended and mastered the alchemy techniques of the Tushita Palace!

boom!
The entire Wuji Cave Heaven trembled violently. Li Qing subconsciously activated this technique, almost plundering all the essence of heaven and earth within the cave heaven into his body, causing the Wuji Cave Heaven to collapse.

Fortunately, he stopped, otherwise he would have had to create a whole new world.

"I've kept you waiting." Li Qing took the Moon Spirit Cicada in his palm, looked at the Moon Spirit Cicada which had become very weak, and muttered to himself.

After he finished speaking, he used the alchemy techniques of the Tushita Palace to absorb the cicada, which was radiating moonlight and precious light, into his body.

hum!
Before long, the nascent form of a magic pill slowly coalesced within Li Qing's body.

After doing all this, he no longer had to worry about wasting the value of this peerless immortal insect. In the future, he only needed to slowly refine it into an immortal pill.

Li Qing stopped his seclusion, stood up, and stepped out, his figure arriving in front of an altar in the Wuji Cave Heaven.

This place has accumulated a massive amount of faith and vow power, so profound that even Li Qing was somewhat surprised.

From this, he could feel the prayers and supplications from all the heavens and the myriad worlds, which were the manifestation of the faith of countless beings who regarded him as their own.

"No wonder there's so much faith and spiritual power accumulated, even beings from other realms worship me now." Li Qing shook his head with a wry smile.

With this continuous source of faith and aspiration, Li Qing could directly attain enlightenment and achieve the status of an Earth Immortal if he so desired.

He simply didn't want to do that. Becoming an Earth Immortal might allow him to further improve his strength, but in the future he would eventually have to return to the path of a True Immortal, so there was no need to get too entangled in karma.

Moreover, earth immortals have too many limitations. If the power of faith is lost, or if those who believe in them die, they will lose their source of power.

Now that he has refined the Moon Spirit Cicada into a Great Elixir of Heaven and Earth, and can enter the realm of True Immortal at any time, why would he abandon the essential for the trivial?

"However, these faith and willpower are not entirely useless. Perhaps in the future, they can be refined into an avatar of faith to protect the human race."

"I will refine a puppet body to carry these beliefs and aspirations, so that even if I ascend to heaven, the human race will have some protection."

After saying that, Li Qing left the Wuji Cave Heaven and instantly ascended to the top of the dome, overlooking the entire Spirit Realm.

At this moment, the vast and boundless spirit world appeared extremely small in his eyes.

But not long after, his immortal body trembled, and the suppression of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth struck again, as if all the heavens and myriad worlds were pressing down on his immortal body.

"It seems we still need to find two of the top ten Chaos Treasures as soon as possible."

As he spoke, Li Qing slowly closed his eyes and formed a Daoist hand seal with his hands.

boom!
A terrifying power of divine consciousness erupted from his sea of ​​consciousness, and in an instant, he gained a clear understanding of the secrets of heaven.

Li Qing once again activated the Law of Cause and Effect, and the cause and effect of all the heavens and myriad worlds intertwined before his eyes, as if converging into a river of cause and effect. Through this, he was able to see the convergence of cause and effect of all things in the world.

He was trying to deduce the secrets of heaven and find the location of the most precious treasure in the world.

However, the Chaos Treasure is born from the heavens and earth, and is formed from the primordial chaos. Even Li Qing could not accurately deduce its existence.

Moreover, Li Qing had never had any interaction with these Chaos Treasures, so even if he wanted to find a causal connection, he couldn't.

Soon, he abandoned his search for the Chaos Treasure and used unparalleled means to communicate the cause and effect of all the heavens and myriad realms, continuing to deduce the secrets of heaven.

This time, he was searching for the threads of cause and effect related to himself. In the past, he could only explore the cause and effect in the spirit world, but now he could easily see through the secrets of many realms.

Soon, the causal threads closely connected to him emitted a hazy halo. Li Qing followed the trail and grabbed them all in his hand, then picked out one of the causal threads to sense it.

"The Ice Palace is actually here." Li Qing raised an eyebrow, and his figure instantly transformed into celestial light, disappearing from the spot.

boom!
In the Spirit Realm, at the northernmost tip of the Frozen Sea, a magnificent ice crystal palace sits amidst a blizzard.

Soon, a majestic figure slowly emerged from the sky!

In almost no time, a graceful figure emerged from the ice palace. She was a woman in the mid-stage of the Mahayana realm, quite powerful, but she bowed down to Li Qing without hesitation.

"The Lord of the Ice Palace pays respects to the Supreme Immortal Wuji!"

Li Qing pointed a finger and helped her up, then said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, do you still remember me?"

The Lord of the Ice Palace slowly raised her head, her beautiful eyes filled with complex emotions: "Of course I remember. I never imagined that a Nascent Soul cultivator from the lower realm would now be the supreme being of this world."
