A journey of survival starting from Zhetian

Chapter 333: Li Xiang, the Quasi-Immortal King
In the thick rhythm of the Heavenly Venerable Dao, Li Xiang's Heavenly Venerable body and Heavenly Venerable Yuanshen had fallen into absolute extinction, and his consciousness also entered into a void where only he was. His current state was very similar to when he comprehended the true mystery of extinction with the help of Xiong Mo.

However, it was different from the extinction that time. In order to live out his seventh life, the extinction he had voluntarily entered was deeper and more resolute than ever before. Not only did his body and soul completely become Taoist, but even his consciousness was extinguished into absolute silence.

This is a level that even the faith of the beings in the Heaven-shaking Universe in the Silent Heavenly Lord cannot reach, and the prayers of all spirits that always echo in the consciousness are cut off. Here, it seems that all the great ways and laws no longer exist, and everything is so empty and void.

If ordinary Heavenly Lords and True Immortals were to fall into this situation, they would basically have no room to struggle. Once touched, they would die completely, and even the Immortal King would be unable to save them.

Fortunately, Li Xiang, the Lord of Silence, is no ordinary person. He is the descendant of the Taoist tradition of the Dongxuan Sect, and inherits the legacy of two great immortal kings, the Xuanhuang Immortal King and the Lingbao Immortal King. He possesses a vast immortal foundation that is rare even in the ancient era of immortals.

At this time, Immortal King Xuanhuang's experience in self-consciousness and spiritual practice, and Immortal King Lingbao's explanation of the path to nirvana, all played an extremely important role. Although it was extremely difficult, Li Xiang still relied on this background to maintain the clarity of his own self-consciousness in such a situation.

As time passed, his thoughts gradually became active, and he had a little spare energy to appreciate the charm of "silence" around him.

He said softly, "This is a deeper level of 'Nirvana'. The five secret realms no longer exist, the body and the soul are all illusions, and the laws of the Heavenly Lord and the laws of the Immortal Dao that I have comprehended in the past have all turned into absolute emptiness. In such a state, only the strongest self-consciousness can maintain clarity and not fear this seemingly eternal disaster."

In this environment where only his own consciousness remained, Li Xiang's understanding of his own consciousness and spirituality became clearer and clearer, and his understanding of extinction became deeper and deeper. Gradually, Li Xiang's consciousness in extinction began to solidify, and a touch of immortal gold began to condense, and a trace of immortality that only king-level creatures have emerged from then on.

He felt the power of his transformed consciousness and said to himself, "Is this what Uncle Xuan Huang said, the consciousness power at the level of the Immortal King? I didn't expect it to be so transcendent. No wonder the Immortal King can kill ordinary top-level True Immortals in a single thought, and even wipe out the resurrection plan he had arranged."

“Now, if I fight a life-and-death battle with immortal beings below the level of Supreme True Immortal, I am afraid that I only need to mix my own transformed consciousness into the attacking technique to kill them with one strike, and at the same time destroy their resurrection tricks.”

When Li Xiang's self-consciousness was completely transformed, the immortal golden nature was completely solidified, and the dots of the king realm's Dao rhyme suddenly emerged. In an instant, a feeling of relief suddenly appeared in his heart, and he could sense something in this empty and void silence.

They are the causes and effects related to oneself, they are the trajectories of fate that intersect with oneself, they are the traces of one's existence in the long river of time, they are the principles and laws left by oneself in the universe and the starry sky.

These things are like heavy anchors, firmly fixing the ship named Li Xiang floating on the dead sea, so as not to make the self-consciousness completely lost and eventually extinguish the self-spirituality.

Li Xiang whispered, "It's time to live out the seventh life completely and return to the universe and the stars."

The scripture of "Lin Zi Mi" slowly ran in the consciousness, and the immortal charm blossomed. A Heavenly Venerable Spirit was slowly created by the immortal golden nature in the will in this dead silence of emptiness and nothingness, and the thick Heavenly Venerable Taoism charm lingered on it.

Then, the immortal golden nature in his consciousness extended to the Heavenly Venerable's Primordial Spirit and shone. Drops of blood materialized, pieces of flesh and blood formed, and Taoist bones condensed into shape. The pure creation of extinction gathered into a Taoist figure wearing a Feng Shui Taoist robe.

A charm that was in harmony with the Tao emanated from the body of the Lord of Silence. The wheel of life in his sea of ​​suffering, which was originally full of scratches, was completely renewed and as smooth as jade, as if time had made it difficult to leave any scratches on it.

His Taoism and cultivation returned in Nirvana, and he successfully achieved Nirvana in the seventh life.

. . .

The Heaven-shading Universe is a blank area close to chaos.

The ball of light formed by the body and spirit of the Lord of Silence is gradually extinguishing, and the rich aura of the Lord of Silence's Tao is spreading out, creating the life star field nearby.

Although no Celestial Venerable or True Immortal could sense the specific situation inside the light ball, nor could they judge the details of Li Xiang's nirvana, the scene of his body and soul transforming into the Tao and dispersing into the Celestial Venerable's essence to create the universe still instantly made all the Celestial Venerables who were watching this place tremble in their hearts.

A celestial master in the restricted area said suspiciously, "This scene is very similar to the previous celestial masters who failed in Nirvana and then transformed into the Dao and became abnormal. Did the celestial master Jiemie fall at the last step and fail in Nirvana, leading to his death?"

In the Sea of ​​Samsara, a True Immortal cast his gaze on the ball of light transformed by the Silent Heavenly Venerable and said in a concentrated voice, "Very similar, but different. These scattered Heavenly Venerable Dao rhymes do not have any remnant thoughts of the Heavenly Venerable lingering on them, and are very pure."

In the Taichu Ancient Mine, Feishu, who had recently become a True Immortal, also said, "Even though I failed in Nirvana, I was able to cross the portal to the Immortal Realm with my broken body, repair my injuries with a vast amount of longevity essence and immortal substances, and then turn to the path of True Immortality. Jiemie Tianzun will not fall like this."

Lingxi Tianzun whispered, "Living out the seventh life is a key node in the mortal world, and the difficulty will rise rapidly. But I didn't expect that even Jiemie Tianzun, a member of the Dongxuan Sect, would have to go through such a hard time."

In the Qilin Cliff close to the chaos, Feng Qingyuan looked at the gradually dissipating ball of light, and his expression changed slightly, "Is the danger of taking the mortal immortal road of the 'secret realm method' so much greater than the mortal immortal road of the 'spiritual root method'? Even the Lord of Destruction has encountered an accident?"

Now that she has come to this Dharma-Ending Universe, she has used the secret method of living a second life to completely abandon the true immortality she had cultivated, and successfully embarked on the mortal immortal path of "Spiritual Root Method".

At this moment, Feng Qingyuan has condensed six reincarnation seals on his own immortal spiritual roots, and the seventh reincarnation seal is about to take shape under the irrigation of Qilin Cliff's kingly realm rhyme. The second half of the mortal immortal road of the "Spiritual Root Method" can be seen by looking up.

In terms of combat power, she who followed the "Spiritual Root Method" of the Mortal Immortal Path could not compare to those Heavenly Lords who were good at killing. But in terms of Taoism and cultivation, apart from the Yunding Patriarch who was preparing to open the way, she was already at the top of the Heavenly Lords and True Immortals in the two worlds.

Although the former Galaxy Immortal could not see clearly the current situation of Lord Jiemie, he could guess that Li Xiang's nirvana was extremely difficult and he was hovering on the edge of complete extinction. If he was not careful, he would fall completely.

Jiang Chen and Zhu Qing, who were standing near the gradually extinguished ball of light, also had solemn expressions.

Jiang Chen looked at Zhulong Tianzun, who was beginning to show signs of aging, and asked slowly, "Can you observe Li Xiang's figure in the future fragments revealed by the long river of time?" Zhu Qing stroked his already somewhat bent waist and sighed, "I can't observe Li Xiang's figure in the long river of time. All fragments of his future have been covered up by Lingbao Xianwang himself."

"In the past, when I wanted to observe his future through the River of Time, a blood-red sword light filled with a destructive aura fell from the upper reaches of the River of Time. If I hadn't run fast and the Lingbao Immortal King hadn't bothered with me too much, I might have been a dead dragon by now."

Zhu Qing patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder. Although his expression was solemn, he said in a relatively calm tone, "Given how much the Lingbao Immortal King values ​​Li Xiang, if something really happened to him, the Immortal King might have already come here and started to rescue him."

Jiang Chen nodded. What Zhu Qing said made sense.

After all, Ji Mie Tianzun is the only descendant of Dongxuan Sect who has inherited part of Lingbao Xianwang's Taoist tradition. Before Lingbao Xianwang officially accepted disciples, Li Xiang, the nominal nephew, could be regarded as the only direct disciple of the Xianwang giant.

This is indeed the case. Since Li Xiang's Nirvana, Lingbao Immortal King has turned his attention from Guixu to his own nephew. Whenever there is a problem, he will intervene.

If Li Xiang really failed in Nirvana and inevitably died, he would immediately notify his junior brother Xuanhuang who was also in the long river of fate, prepare to change the history of the years, and go out to rescue him despite the horrible backlash of the cause and effect of the years.

Due to the influence of a certain Holy Spirit Immortal King, the Dongxuan Sect now accepts disciples basically at random. At present, most of the old people in the Dongxuan Sect have already followed Diyuan Tianzun and left home to go to the edge of the universe, or even go deep into the chaos to explore.

As a result, the only person left in the sect with supreme combat power was Ximie Tianzun. The number of disciples left in the Dongxuan Star Region was less than a hundred, and even if the anonymous disciples from all over the universe were counted, the total number was less than ten thousand. Once Ximie Tianzun died, the Dongxuan Sect would immediately be in a state of lack of successors, and the Taoist inheritance would be unstable in an instant.

Although he had given up the idea of ​​accepting disciples because of a certain holy spirit, Lingbao Immortal King still attached great importance to the orderly inheritance of his own sect. He could not turn a blind eye to the instability of the Taoist tradition.

Moreover, the dark side has already been invaded by the Dark Immortal King. In the future, relying on only five Immortal Kings, it is absolutely impossible to hold out for long. A new king must be born to help. Li Xiang, the nephew, is the future helper that Lingbao Immortal King is optimistic about.

Therefore, no matter what the reason, Lingbao Immortal King would always look at his nephew from time to time to ensure that he could lend a helping hand in time when necessary.

Lingbao Immortal King could naturally see Li Xiang's current state. Nirvana was dangerous, but it was not enough to kill his nephew, so he only needed to watch quietly. After Li Xiang passed this level, it would not be so difficult to live out his eighth and ninth lives in the future.

As time passed, ten thousand years had passed.

The light ball formed by the body and soul of the Silent Heavenly Venerable was extremely illusory, and it seemed that it was about to completely dissipate from the universe. At this time, all the Heavenly Venerables and True Immortals in the entire universe and starry sky had already cast their eyes here, and their expressions were involuntarily tense.

After all, looking at this situation, the situation of the Desolate Heavenly Venerable is indeed somewhat dangerous. If this Heavenly Venerable can't get through with the immortal foundation of the Dongxuan Sect, then there may really be no living creature in the universe and the stars that can live out the seventh life on the earthly immortal road of the "secret realm method".

Unless there really is a living being that can, with his extraordinary understanding and amazing luck, possess the ability of a quasi-immortal king in the sixth life, and then refer to the nirvana experience of Lingbao Immortal King and Xuanhuang Immortal King, and then transform into nirvana.

Fortunately, just before the ball of light completely dissipated and merged into the starry sky of the universe, the entire ball of Tao rhyme light stabilized and no longer dissipated its own Tianzun Tao rhyme, which made all the Tianzuns and True Immortals who were paying attention heave a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, before the other Heavenly Masters and True Immortals could react, this ball of Dao rhyme light suddenly emitted star-like Dao rhyme of the king realm, and in a moment, it condensed the Heavenly Master's primordial spirit and body.

A Taoist priest emitting terrifying pressure and wearing a Feng Shui Taoist robe appeared within the Taoist light ball, appearing before the eyes of all living beings.

Originally, all the Heavenly Lords and True Immortals should have gone up to congratulate the Taoist. But when the Heavenly Lords and True Immortals sensed the faint pressure of the King Realm and the cultivation of the Seventh Heavenly Lord, they were almost all dumbfounded.

The atmosphere of the universe became visibly abnormal.

Jiang Chen, who was not far from Li Xiang, walked up to him and congratulated him with a smile in his eyes, "Congratulations to the Heavenly Venerable Jiemie for taking an important step and becoming the third Heavenly Venerable to step into the seventh world. However, could you please whisper to me what level of Taoism you are at now?"

Li Xiang straightened his robe and said softly with a smile, "Didn't you sense the Dao rhyme of the king realm in me? Through this deep and silent nirvana, I successfully raised my own Dao to the quasi-immortal king level between life and death."

"My cultivation results are not bad, right? I finally touched upon Lingbao. Master Lingbao has not yet achieved the status of a mortal immortal, but has already raised his cultivation to the level of a quasi-immortal king."

“Tsk, it’s really not easy.”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of all the Heavenly Lords and True Immortals twitched. No matter what their cultivation level was, as long as they did not conceal the secrets of the Heaven, under their full attention, the sound of such words was no different from speaking loudly in their ears.

In the Taichu Ancient Mine, Baihe Tianzun smiled bitterly and said, "Another person has already possessed the Path of a Quasi-Immortal King during the Tianzun period, and he is still in the critical Nirvana stage of the seventh transformation. Should I go to congratulate him, or..."

Taiwu Tianzun's expression was also somewhat difficult to describe. "Well, as the successor of Lingbao Immortal King's lineage, it is reasonable that he can have the Taoism of a quasi-immortal king when he was Tianzun. It's just beyond our expectations."

Ba Jiu Tianzun looked at his old body and sighed softly, "It is indeed a good thing that there is one more top-notch strong man in the universe, even a strong man who has the potential to become an immortal king in the future, but..."

Do one have to reach the level of a quasi-immortal king to achieve nirvana in the seventh life?
Most of the Heavenly Masters felt somewhat uncomfortable.
