There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

Several days flew by.

The most talked-about thing in the cultivation world these days is naturally Wang Ping's official promotion to the fifth realm. After all, he is the first True Lord born since the rise of humanity.

Many sects immediately hired craftsmen to design new golden statues, especially the Taoist temple in Zhonghui City, which was supervised by Shen Xiaozhu's disciples personally, and the new statues were replaced the next day.

This is to set an example for the world. The new statue of Wang Ping conforms to the Taoist image of tranquility and inaction. He is wearing a blue Taoist robe with wide sleeves and a cross collar, a jade crown on his head, and a whisk in his hand. He has a gentle face, and behind him is a mysterious light representing enlightenment. Yu Lian is lying on his shoulder, looking very gentle, no longer the fierce look before.

After the statue was replaced, Liu Shuang and Shen Xiaozhu's disciples came to the Taoist temple in Zhonghui City the next day to preach and tell the Shinto stories compiled by the Taoist temple for the new True Lord.

Good men and women love to listen to these stories, especially children, although they may ask some very stupid questions, such as "Where does the True Lord live?", "Does the True Lord have children?", "Can the True Lord live forever?", "Can we become immortals by practicing Taoism?"

Mortals can ask these questions because they are ignorant, and ignorance means innocence, but if a cultivator asks these questions, he will surely be turned into ashes by Wang Ping's disciples.

The reason why Liu Shuang and Shen Xiaozhu's disciples are so keen on this matter is that they can get a very good reward after completing it. This reward is a considerable income for them who have just started practicing.

This does not mean that the younger generations under their tutelage are poor and do not even have the money to practice. This is a stage of practice that they must go through. This is the method used by Shen Xiaozhu and Liu Shuang to educate their disciples, and they themselves also enjoy it. After all, the money they control and the practice materials given by the master are two different things.

A busy day.

They usually come to the backyard to "divide the spoils". The group is led by Liu Shuang's apprentice Zhao Lei and Shen Xiaozhu's apprentice Yu Dan. Zhao Lei is more steady, while Yu Dan is more jumpy.

"There are 100 taels of silver in cash, and 3,232 strings of coins and 30 pieces of copper coins."

Zhao Lei reported a number rigorously.

Yu Dan couldn't help but smile and said, "Let's not count the leftovers. It's hard to divide them. Just think of it as a gift from the junior brothers to the senior brother."

However, Zhao Lei disagreed. Under his insistence, the time of dividing the money lasted much longer. It was not until dark that they returned to Qianmuguan Mountains and separated outside the front hall.

Yudan went to Qianmu Mountain alone. When he reached the foot of the mountain with a cheerful smile, he took out the money from the storage bag, kept more than ten strings of money and put them back into the storage bag, and held the rest in his hand.

When he returned to Shen Xiaozhu's dojo, he first found Master Yun Liang, who was playing chess alone in the dim moonlight, and handed him the money, saying, "Master, this is a gift to you."

Yu Dan handed most of the money he earned today to his master.

Yun Liang glanced at the money handed over by his apprentice, and did not refuse his kindness. He put it into his storage bag and said, "Play chess with me for a while, then you should meditate."

"Yes!"

Yudan nodded respectfully.

An ordinary night passed just like that.

Early the next morning.

When Yu Dan woke up, he found himself lying comfortably in bed, but he clearly remembered that he was meditating last night. Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a familiar sound of footsteps. He was so scared that he quickly got out of the bed and pretended to meditate.

The door opened and Yun Liang walked in.

"Master."

"You don't have to go down the mountain today."

"what?"

"Let's go to the top of the mountain to meet your ancestor first."

Yu Dan showed fear on his face, and his cheerful nature seemed to be sealed all of a sudden.

Yun Liang knew what his disciple was thinking, but he didn't point it out. He glanced at the messy bed and ordered, "Hurry up, don't keep your master waiting for too long."

He pointed to the mirror next to him as he spoke.

Although Yu Dan was reluctant in his heart, he did not hesitate. He put on his Taoist robe and jade crown as quickly as possible, and when he went out, he saw his master and grandmaster who had been waiting for a long time.

"Let's go."

Shen Xiaozhu took a serious look at Yu Dan and then soared into the sky.

Yu Dan felt his body floating in the air, and his excitement suppressed his fear of meeting his ancestors. However, after just ten breaths, he saw the familiar yet unfamiliar old locust tree.

Then, he saw the old ancestor drinking tea under the old locust tree. Perhaps it was because he had seen the statue of the ancestor too many times in recent days, which gave rise to a very absurd feeling in his heart. When the old ancestor's gaze fell on him, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous deep in his heart.

At this moment, auspicious clouds fell from the sky again, and Yu Dan saw a familiar figure, it was Zhao Lei who was practicing in Shuangshan Dojo. This relieved his nervousness a lot.

When Zhao Lei landed and saw Yu Dan was there, the tension in his heart was relieved a lot. He immediately followed Liu Shuang to salute and greet the ancestor.

"Come closer."

Wang Ping's voice was casual.

Yu Dan glanced at the giant snake under the locust tree next to him. When he met its terrifying vertical pupils, his scalp immediately went numb with fear, and his legs began to tremble.

"I, the master, cannot stay in this world for long."

Wang Ping's eyes fell on Shen Xiaozhu, "After I leave, this dojo will be inherited by you." He took out a magic array token and handed it over, "This is the magic array token of the Nine Extremes Great Array."

Shen Xiaozhu glanced at Liu Shuang standing beside him, but did not take it immediately.

Yu Lian said at this time: "Take it."

Liu Shuang lowered her head. Although this was something she had refused first, she still felt a little depressed. Then she smiled and took over for Shen Xiaozhu and said, "Junior sister, don't think too much."

Only then did Shen Xiaozhu take the token from Liu's hands.

Wang Ping looked at them and could see through their thoughts at a glance, but he didn't say much. He then took out two other tokens and said, "These are the tokens of the mountain barrier array. When I drew up the barrier array for the sect, I refined two control tokens. One was in the hands of your master, and he left the token when he left. Today, I hand them over to you."

Upon hearing this, both of them straightened up and saluted, then took the token respectfully.

"Master, will it take you a long time to come back after you leave?"

Liu Shuang suddenly felt a little reluctant and regretted her previous decision. This was her subconscious thought.

Wang Ping's eyes fell on Liu Shuang's face and he said in a cold voice: "Maybe he will be back soon, or maybe he will never come back."

Both of them were startled when they heard this.

Liu Shuang wanted to say something, but Wang Ping waved his hand and said, "Don't panic. Even if I don't come back, I can always pay attention to this world. You can also use the transfer array to come to my new dojo to visit me."

"Master, may I ask where is your new temple?"

The words that Liu Shuang was about to say turned into this because of Wang Ping's explanation. Wang Ping chuckled and said, "It all depends on how the situation develops next. You don't have to think too much about it. This matter has nothing to do with you."

After saying that, he stretched out his left hand and flipped it. Two locust tree branches appeared out of thin air in his hand. Then the locust tree branches turned into "confinement talismans". "Keep these two talismans. They can temporarily confine the fourth realm cultivators, but they will consume all the wood spirit energy in your body. Don't use them unless it's a critical moment."

"Thank you, Master!"

The two sisters thanked him in unison and simultaneously reached out to take the talisman.

Wang Ping took out the Cave Mirror and a storage bag, and said to Shen Xiaozhu: "This Cave Mirror is the treasure of Qianmu Temple. I will give it to you now. The Seven Star Sword is in the storage bag. It will be more powerful when used with the Seven Star Sword Formation and Giant Object Technique. I will give it to you. I hope you can carry forward Qianmu Temple."

As he spoke, he stood up with a serious look. After all, this meant that the inheritance of Qianmu Temple was completely handed over to Shen Xiaozhu.

This time Shen Xiaozhu did not refuse. She knelt down and bowed, then knelt on the ground with her hands raised above her head.

Wang Ping did not hesitate and personally put the "Dongtian Mirror" and the storage bag containing the Seven-Star Sword into Shen Xiaozhu's hands. The moment the two items left his hands, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Yu Lian sensed Wang Ping's emotions and communicated with him in the spiritual sea: "Back then, Qianmu Temple was just a few thatched cottages, but now who in the cultivation world doesn't know about Qianmu Temple? Don't think too much, any Taoist temple needs to be passed down."

Wang Ping looked at Shen Xiaozhu who was still kneeling and said, "Get up. The future of Qianmu Temple depends on you."

Shen Xiaozhu stood up and said, "I will definitely live up to Master's trust."

"sit down."

Wang Ping calmed down in just a few breaths, looked at Liu Shuang again, took out an exquisite metal ring, and said, "This is a magic weapon I made using the Star God Core with the ability of 'time'. It can be driven by the spiritual energy of the wood spirit to build a time barrier. It is a good defensive magic weapon. You can use it for self-defense."

"Thank you, Master."

Liu Shuang showed a happy expression, stood up and took the magic weapon.

Wang Ping glanced at everyone present, flicked his sleeves to disperse the puppets in the alchemy room behind the dojo, then stretched out his left hand and emitted a ray of white light that shone into Shen Xiaozhu's brows, telling her all the secrets of the dojo, including the underground caves.

"The master is gone, you must practice diligently!"

When Wang Ping's voice sounded, the rain lotus on the distant branch sensed Wang Ping's emotions, and immediately flew over and landed on his shoulder.

Liu Shuang and Shen Xiaozhu only felt that the master's breath disappeared out of thin air, and then they felt empty in their hearts.

...

outer space.

When Wang Ping stabilized his body and looked back at Zhongzhou Star, Yu Lian asked, "Is there really no chance for you to come back in the future?"

"As long as the rule of other True Lords still exists, there is almost no chance for you to come back. Otherwise, there will definitely be a bloody storm. However, you can still go back after I settle down and build the transfer array. All of you disciples can also be teleported to my new dojo."

Wang Ping explained softly.

Yu Lian couldn't help but complain: "I finally got promoted to the fifth level, but I was actually exiled from Zhongzhou Star."

Wang Ping reached out and stroked Yu Lian's head, "This is not exile, but ascension."

"You are just deceiving yourself." Yu Lian said with her eyes shining: "If you can suppress other True Lords, then won't you have the final say in everything?"

"That's true, but it's too early to talk about this now!"

As Wang Ping spoke, he stretched out his left hand and flicked it forward. A trace of wood spirit energy crossed the starry sky and formed an energy vortex hundreds of feet away. As soon as this energy vortex appeared, it continuously absorbed the excess wood spirit energy on Zhongzhou Star.

He had personally experienced the imbalance of spiritual energy caused by his stay on Zhongzhou Star. Many cultivators had their spiritual veins damaged during their practice because of this, with the earth vein cultivators being the worst hit.

Therefore, he had to leave Zhongzhou Star in advance, otherwise it would be somewhat embarrassing for other True Lords to come forward to drive him away.

The surging energy vortex attracted many spiritual creatures. Yu Lian turned back into her original state and devoured the pure spirituality they carried one bite at a time.

The energy vortex only lasted for a moment before Wang Ping waved his hand to disperse it. Yu Lian also returned to lie on Wang Ping's shoulder and asked, "Where can we go now?"

"For now, let's just find a starry sky where no one is."

Wang Ping turned around and looked at the vast starry sky. There were ten large planets orbiting the sun in this sky. Each of them currently had an owner. As for the satellites orbiting the planets, Wang Ping had even less interest because he did not like sharing the starry sky with outsiders.

The rest are some small planets that are very far away from the sun. Their mass is generally very low, and building ecological zones requires a lot of engineering, and they are very close to the extraterritorial border.

"Are you targeting Jupiter?"

Yu Lian asked with a grin.

There are also planets named after the five elements in this starry sky. After Wang Ping was promoted, he could clearly sense that there was an aura on Jupiter that was the same as the wood spirit in his body, and he made a special record for this. Yu Lian naturally knew about this.

This aura must be the combination of Huishan Zhenjun and Xiaoshan Zhenjun without a doubt.

"I just don't know what attitude the other True Lords have towards him."

Wang Ping looked at the area where Jupiter was located.

Yu Lian said in a firm tone: "Since they have acknowledged your title of True Lord, and Lieyang has also said before that he will solve the remaining problems of Huishan, but in this case, Xiaoshan..."

"You can only take one step at a time and see one step at a time."

Wang Ping raised his head and stared into the depths of the universe, interrupting Yu Lian. In his sight, part of the pure wood spirit energy constructed by the big net between heaven and earth landed near Jupiter. This was a good thing for him, as it could better stabilize the wood spirit.

It’s just that other people may not think so.

After all, if they really want Xiaoshan to recover, the Taiyan sect has two people in the fifth realm, which is not in their interests.

"We can only take one step at a time."

After Yu Lian responded, she asked again, "Have you decided where to go now?"

Wang Ping was about to answer when his eyes inadvertently looked towards the moon. He suddenly felt a little flutter in his heart, which made him a little surprised. He subconsciously observed carefully and suddenly discovered that there was some special connection between the moon and Zhongzhou Star.

Then, one of his consciousness appeared near the moon, where he could sense this power more clearly. Its existence caused tidal phenomena on the Zhongzhou Star in the Moon River.

And in the sight of Wang Ping's 'Tian Tong Fu', the arrangement of the five elements of yin and yang spiritual energy between Zhongzhou Star and the Moon was very regular, and this regularity seemed to have some kind of resonance with the entire starry sky.

So he stretched out his left hand and deduced carefully.

After a moment, Wang Ping put his hand down, and under Yu Lian's curious gaze, he probed his soul into the interior of the Moon River Zhongzhou Star. (End of this chapter)
