Refining Qi starts from repairing the panel.

Chapter 237: Ending Cause and Effect
The lineage of gods and witches relies on Yin Qi to strengthen their primordial spirit, thus deriving many magical powers.

This is somewhat similar to a Qi cultivator. There is no need to spend too much effort studying supernatural powers. Once the cultivation is sufficient, one can perform many secret techniques according to the methods left by predecessors.

Wu has been infused with a large amount of Yin Qi since she was in the fetal state, which caused her to have congenital abnormalities. After they are born, they are basically all girls. Occasionally there are some exceptions, but they are also lacking in Yang Qi and cannot be considered normal boys.

This path of cultivation is quite abnormal, and can even be said to be against the harmony of nature, going against the yang and turning it into yin, and forcefully interfering with innate matters, which naturally has great side effects.

Chu Zheng studied it for a long time but was unable to find a suitable solution.

According to the practice method of witchcraft, eventually without any interference from external forces, one will transform oneself into a Yin God, and the physical body will be completely abandoned, becoming similar to a god of incense.

At that time, they can no longer be considered living beings.

Chu Zheng conducted many experiments, but the results were all unsatisfactory. Once the Yin Qi in the witch's body was neutralized by the Yang Qi, his cultivation would immediately become unstable, and he might even lose all his magical powers.

The soul was still strong and had not regressed, but it was blocked by the Yang Qi and could no longer perform its secret techniques or supernatural powers.

After the attempt failed, Chu Zheng immediately began to consider another way. Referring to the immortal methods he had obtained before, he created a new method of practice that was similar to witchcraft.

The spirit is yin and the body is yang, which are completely separated.

Focus on the spirit, rather than the body, use the spirit to nourish the weak body, thereby gaining a longer lifespan and powerful magic power.

The primordial spirit is affected by the yang energy in the physical body, and its properties will gradually change, eventually cultivating into a yang spirit.

This is a method of cultivation that only exists in Chu Zheng's mind and requires a long time to verify.

But now he has plenty of time.

The white tiger was killed by Heaven, and the throne of the King of Beasts remained vacant. The human race will have a long period of peace, long enough for him to complete this life.

The sun sets and the moon rises, and cold waves have come and gone for nearly a hundred years.

A hundred years is enough time for a lot of things to happen. All of the Wan clan's territories have been taken back, and the frontline camps of the three clans have penetrated deep into the three wastelands. The human territory has doubled compared to before.

The population has increased dramatically, and Chu Zheng's golden body is almost spread to every tribe of the Dongyuan human race, and the number of believers is already countless.

However, the quality of these believers is quite low, and there are very few true believers.

In a world without the seeds of faith, it takes a long time for a god to take root.

Moreover, not everyone is willing to believe in God, and without the slightest intention of respecting God, even if they worship, it can only be regarded as blasphemy, and they cannot provide any incense or prayer power.

Even so, Chu Zheng's original body had already felt the barrier of the Tongxuan realm decades ago, and he could cross it with just a thought.

But he suppressed his rising cultivation level and began to do his best to consolidate his foundation and purify his divine infant.

He still kept the impurities that Nie Longhu had mentioned in mind. In order to avoid interfering with his path, he wasted a large amount of incense and vows to purify and refine it over and over again until there was no trace of impurities left. Only then did he integrate it into the divine infant.

Years of accumulation have made his divine infant more than ten times stronger than the ordinary divine infant of the immortal cultivator who has reached the ninth transformation, and he can enter the realm of Tongxuan at any time.

During the past hundred years, Chu Zheng spent a great deal of time and energy studying witchcraft, and his progress in cultivation was inevitably affected.

Now, the secret medicine for increasing cultivation needs to be supplied to newborns first, and the supply is very limited. He is not from this world, so there is no need to waste this resource. The Dongyuan human race needs them more.

With the Nine-Aperture Golden Elixir in his body, even if Chu Zheng only circulated the Qi in his body every day and practiced step by step without taking any secret medicine, over the years, his cultivation level has still steadily entered the perfection of the Spirit Refining Realm, and he is only one step away from the realm of Spirit Refining and Returning to the Void.

His cultivation foundation is already sufficient, but Chu Zheng is not in a hurry to take this step.

He has not appeared in the world for a hundred years, and the calamity energy has accumulated to a certain extent. He has a premonition that if he takes this step, there will be a great calamity.

For him, calamity energy is the next problem that needs to be solved. In this life, he walks in the world using the two words "Zhengchu". The calamity energy that is eliminated has almost no effect on his body.

If it weren't for the fact that his previous foundation was strong enough and the calamity energy he had dissipated was not enough for him to practice smoothly to the stage of refining the spirit and returning to the void, and if it weren't for the fact that his own Qi refining skills were not too high, he would have been in trouble by now.

As night falls, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.

Within the main hall.

Chu Zheng was dressed in a black robe, sitting cross-legged on a jade couch, his eyes lightly closed, circulating his Qi in his body, absorbing the Yin and Yang Qi.

His muscles and bones are completely stretched, he is tall and straight, his back is broad, and every inch of his flesh and blood is filled with unimaginable strong energy and blood.

The totem is strengthening his energy and blood all the time. Even if he has not practiced much, with his current physical body, he can tear a fifth-level ferocious beast apart with bare hands without any effort.

After a while, Chu Zheng slowly opened his eyes, like a god sitting high in the clouds, and called softly, "Wan Xiu."

A bright-eyed girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, rushed into the hall, bowed deeply, and said respectfully, "Master Dao, what is the oracle?"

Her eyes were pious and filled with obvious reverence, and she looked at Chu Zheng as if she was worshipping a god.

There was not much ripple in Chu Zheng's heart. As a worshipped god, he knew very well whether the believers were devout or not.

Wan Xiu has always been very respectful to him. For many years, she has burned incense and worshipped him every day without any mistakes.

The only thing is that from beginning to end, he did not gain even a trace of faith and power from Xiu.

No matter how respectful she appeared, she could not hide what was in Xiu's heart. She was not willing to worship Chu Zheng as a god. She had her own ambitions and was unwilling to be inferior to others.

Chu Zheng didn't care about this and continued to test her practice as usual: "How is your practice of Soul Evolution going?"

“There has been some progress.”

The girl smiled joyfully, with an obvious divine light flashing between her brows, revealing a divine mind fluctuation far beyond that of an ordinary person.

The next moment, a slightly hazy figure slowly stepped out. His face was exactly the same as the girl's, with a lively smile.

Wan Xiu's talent is unparalleled, especially in the area of ​​spirit and soul, where she possesses astonishing aptitude.

This is the successor chosen by Chu Zheng for Shan Xun.

After a hundred years of meditation, he finally gained something and found a new way. The lineage of gods and witches was integrated with the immortal scriptures that focused on the soul, and a new way to become an immortal was born.

There are fewer and fewer ancient witches nowadays, and most of them have begun to specialize in the path that Chu Zheng has realized.

This is a brand new path. Although it is still incomplete, it has bypassed the constraints of the immortal bones while retaining many of the methods of the gods and witches.

The only drawback is that this method requires a high level of talent and a certain degree of understanding, and the threshold is not low.

But this path does not require one to be like the witch before, who cut off all emotions and desires, went against nature, regarded love as a scourge, and dared not cross the line even a little.

This can be regarded as the fulfillment of Shan Xun's last wish. With Chu Zheng's current ability, this is the limit of what he can do.

After testing Wan Xiu's cultivation, Chu Zheng nodded slightly and looked outside the hall: "Come in."

A woman in her thirties slowly walked into the hall, looking respectful and bowing:
"Wan Jue, meet Dao Jun, I'm here to pick up Ah Xiu."

"From today on, Wan Xiu no longer needs to serve here." Chu Zheng slowly stood up and said in a deep voice: "From now on, everything about her has nothing to do with me."

He has taught Wan Xiu carefully for more than ten years and has done more than enough.

He has already achieved 80% of the purpose of coming to the Dongyuan Realm. Now is the time to leave the realm and he needs to settle some causes and effects.

"Dao Jun, what did Wan Xiu do wrong?"

Hearing this, Wan Jue's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously looked at Wan Xiu beside him.

Chu Zheng tilted his head and keenly caught the hidden joy that flashed across Wan Xiu's eyes. Without saying much, he waved his hand, signaling the two to leave.

"Thank you, Mr. Dao."

Wan Jue didn't dare to ask any more questions. After bowing to express his gratitude, he took Wan Xiu's hand and turned to leave.

Before leaving, Wan Jue turned around and glanced at the hall. Chu Zheng's figure had disappeared, leaving only the gentle night breeze in the hall.

"Auntie?"

Wan Xiu stopped her brisk steps, somewhat puzzled.

"fine."

Wan Jue pursed his lips, stretched out his hand to ruffle the girl's fluffy hair, and a warm smile spread across his face: "Go home quickly. A few days ago, your father went out to hunt a blood phoenix, just in time to nourish your body."

"Mother, I will definitely become very strong in the future."

Wan Xiu's eyes were bright, and he clenched his fists, saying firmly: "Stronger than anyone in this world."

"Yes, my Ah Xiu is the best..."

Wan Jue's eyes were full of doting. He took Wan Xiu's hand, slowly left the temple, blended into the night, and walked away.

…………

…………

Above the nine heavens, strong winds were howling.

A black shadow streaked across the night sky, wandering between the cracks in space, covering hundreds of thousands of miles in one step.

The sun rose and the moon set. After traveling for several days, Chu Zheng stopped above a quiet mountain range.

His divine sense swept across the earth, and soon, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He took a step forward and landed on a mountainside.

On the mountainside, there stands a stone gate that is ten feet high. At this moment, the stone gate is tightly closed and shrouded in layers of magic arrays, isolating it from the outside world.

"Brother Nie, Chu is here to pay you a visit!"

Chu Zheng let out a low shout, and the sound shook the whole area.

boom--

The stone door suddenly opened, and a tall figure walked out slowly with a hint of gloom between his brows.

"Brother Nie Dao, I am leaving this world, so I came to say goodbye."

Chu Zheng glanced at Nie Longhu and had an idea in his mind.

After nearly a hundred years of practice, Nie Longhu has entered the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, with eight orifices of the Golden Elixir, and his talent is extraordinary.

"Go if you want to, come and see me if you don't have time."

Nie Longhu muttered something, his eyebrows twitching, and he looked away, hiding the horror in his eyes.

'What a freak!'

After a little over a hundred years, he had achieved perfection in spiritual cultivation and was only one step away from returning to the void.

Even though he was undergoing tribulations as an incarnation, the speed of his progress was really too exaggerated. This was enough to prove how terrifying Chu Zheng's comprehension was.

"Before I leave, there are still some things I want to ask you, Brother Dao."

Chu Zheng took a deep breath and said slowly: "Brother Dao once said that about the method of entering the heavens and myriad worlds..."

"What do you want to do?"

Nie Longhu's eyes were somewhat alert. A hundred years ago, Shan Xun broke through the barrier and even alarmed the Heavenly Dao. Naturally, he could not have failed to notice it.

He has a better understanding of Chu Zheng's ability to stir up trouble.

Initially, he did want to recruit Chu Zheng into the mountain sect, but this kind of evildoer who came from a wild background was too difficult to guess and the risk was too great.

During this period of time, he has discovered some characteristics of Chu Zheng that are different from ordinary people. This man is really not afraid of death.

This is definitely not because the tribulation of the incarnation will not affect the original body. Nie Longhu has experienced tribulation for thousands of years and has seen everything. He is absolutely sure of this.

Chu Zheng had no fear or trepidation at all when it came to death or trouble.

Dare to think, dare to do, dare to try, regardless of the consequences, and be daring.

For such a person, following the path of refining Qi, whether it is a blessing or a curse is not worth discussing for now, but it will definitely bring a lot of trouble.

From the perspective of his own safety, Nie Longhu really didn't want to have anything to do with Chu Zheng. However, he would be reluctant to let this freak die in some corner.

After hesitating for a while, Nie Longhu sighed and said, as a fellow Qi cultivator, he would help if he could.

Although Chu Zheng did some messy things in this life, he also helped him. Without Shan Xun to break through the barrier and take away the tiger, it would not be easy for him to practice in peace.

"You must remember what I'm going to say next."

Nie Longhu's expression became much more serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Last time we met, I told you that if you have the chance, come to the Ten Thousand Worlds Battlefield to find me. I can lead you into the Ten Thousand Worlds to meet several Dao Lords."

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger, and a little light flashed on his fingertips, which passed into Chu Zheng's mind:
"These are the coordinates of the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield. However, I have something to remind you first. The Realm Battlefield is the most strictly blocked place. If you want to hide it from the Immortal Alliance or the Martial Palace and cross the boundary wall, there is basically no hope."

"There will be Immortal Emperors patrolling near the boundary wall, and occasionally strong warriors from the ancestral realm of martial arts will appear. It is quite dangerous. In front of such beings, all your cards will be seen through at a glance, and even the cause and effect line cannot be hidden."

Nie Longhu took a deep breath, his expression becoming more serious: "In other words, once you are discovered, your entire clan will be wiped out. If you are not alone and have friends and relatives, then you should think carefully before you act."

Hearing this, Chu Zheng seemed to be thinking about something, and his eyes darkened.

"As long as you can reach the battlefield of all realms alive, even if it's near the boundary wall, I can ask Master to personally take action to open a way for you to survive and bring you out."

As soon as he finished speaking, Nie Longhu raised his hand and formed a seal, which appeared in Chu Zheng's mind:
"In the battlefield of all realms, if you cast this Dao Seal, I will feel something in my heart and come to rescue you as soon as possible."

Watching Chu Zheng taking note of the seal, Nie Longhu's expression gradually regained his composure. There were some things he didn't finish saying.

If one wants to reach the true battlefield of all realms, one needs to at least reach the peak of Hedao, or even the realm of celestial immortals, to be able to do so.

Without this level of cultivation, even if Chu Zheng arrived at the battlefield, he would not be able to hold on until help arrived and would have little chance of survival.
