"Congratulations, fellow Taoist, on continuing your journey to immortality!"

Ye Yang spoke.

At this moment, the young Earth Qilin opened its mouth and spoke.

"You are joking, my friend. This is just the first step in the journey of thousands of miles. The road to immortality is long and difficult. It is a bit too early to talk about it now."

The Earth Qilin's voice is low and magnetic. Although it is mixed with a hint of immaturity, it does not sound like the voice that a newly born baby animal can make.

Hearing the words of Tianyi Chunqiu Lord, Ye Yang was slightly stunned, then he smiled.

"Indeed, the real test is yet to come."

The further a monk's practice progresses, the more difficult it becomes.

This road has been full of ups and downs and challenges since ancient times.

Especially when a cultivator enters the realm of true person, every step of improvement means facing more severe tests.

At this stage of practice, it is no longer a simple requirement for the body and magical powers, but more of a tempering of the mind and a firmness of the heart of the Tao.

Whether we can keep our original intention and make further progress.

Or he is like a fish in the river, lost in the crowd.

Those who practice cultivation not only have to overcome numerous external obstacles, but also have to face their own inner fears and desires.

“After hearing about the Taoist realm, every level seems like a fight for life with the heavens.”

Ye Yang sighed.

"Every breakthrough is accompanied by great risks. If you are not careful, all your efforts will be wasted, or even your soul may be lost."

When Tu Qilin heard this, a hint of recognition flashed in his eyes.

“Yes, at the end of your practice, the closer you get to the essence of the laws of heaven and earth, the more you can feel the gap between yourself and heaven and earth.

“And this gap is precisely the motivation for us practitioners to constantly pursue transcendence.”

"It is precisely because of these difficulties and challenges that the path of practice becomes more precious."

……

The Earth Qilin is just born and is still very weak, especially with its earth essence in its body, it is the coveted object of all beasts.

To avoid danger and get through the weakest period after birth.

Tian Yichunqiu Lord sought refuge at Feitian Gate and stayed there.

During the days when Tianyi Chunqiu Lord chose to stay in Feitianmen for refuge, the originally tense situation gradually subsided.

The monsters' siege of the city came to an end, and everyone in Feitian Gate breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially after the deaths of two Dharma Real People in succession, although the Netherworld Huangquan is still making big moves in other places.

But near Feitian Gate, they stopped for a while and dared not attack again.

The last time, there were too many monsters attacking the city, and a huge number of them died.

This time, the coalition forces of several sects began to get busy, sorting out the corpses of monsters left on the battlefield.

Some relatively complete bones were sold directly to monks in need in exchange for a large amount of cultivation resources.

And more of them are used to refine various magical instruments.

After it was launched on the market, it was enthusiastically sought after by the majority of monks.

Especially the Red Moon Mountains.

Several powerful real forces and dozens of families allocated manpower here to form a united front.

For a time, the development was booming, and it was not inferior to the prosperity of Taoanfang City.

"It seems that although we have experienced some twists and turns this time, it may be a blessing in disguise."

Ye Yang stood above Chiyue Mountain and looked at the busy scene in the distance, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.

Gu Xuan smiled and nodded.

"Many times, opportunities often lie in crises. As long as we respond correctly, we can turn danger into safety, or even move to a higher level."

Ye Yang withdrew his gaze from afar and turned to Gu Xuan.

"We might as well take advantage of this time to completely resolve the hidden dangers around us."

"We should organize a group of elite disciples to conduct a comprehensive cleanup of the nearby mountains. This way, we can ensure the safety of the area around Red Moon Mountain and collect more valuable resources."

Gu Xuan nodded in agreement.

"It's indeed a good idea. Now that the younger generation in the sect has gradually grown up, we should select a few seeds to focus on training and then help them break through to the realm of true person."

“In addition, we can also take this opportunity to examine the strength and potential of the younger generation.”

Ye Yang nodded.

In fact, there are quite a few second-generation and third-generation disciples in the current Feitian Sect. Among them, the one who is closest to the realm of true person is naturally the bloodthirsty wolf Wang Dong.

He had failed to break through to the realm of true person before, but now he can be said to be half a step away from being a true person.

As for Wang Xijing, Bai Zizhen and others, they had already reached the perfect state of martial arts.

However, he has entered his old age, his Qi and blood are declining, and he wants to rely on the support of resources to break through to the realm of true person.

It's very difficult.

The remaining Li Bayuan and Zhang Xing, who is in charge of refining corpse clothes, are also in the late stage of warriors, but they are not strong enough and they still lack some foundation.

Especially Zhang Xing, the corpse refining clothes master, who practiced a corpse refining technique in the early stage, although it was extremely powerful.

But to a certain extent, it also destroyed his own potential for cultivation, making it very difficult to achieve a successful breakthrough.

As for Huo Bingshuang and others, although they are not bad, relatively speaking, they still lack some foundation.

"In that case, let Wang Dong come back and lead everyone to sort out the remaining monster riots."

"This method is quite good. Li Bayuan, Zhang Xing and others can also take this opportunity to hone their skills."

"Especially Zhang Xing. Although his corpse refining technique limits his further improvement, if he can find new insights in actual combat, he may be able to find a way to break through the bottleneck."

After the two finished communicating, Ye Yang looked at Gu Xuan. He felt that the aura of Gu Xuan was vast and lofty, and extremely solid, and it seemed that he was about to break through.

"Master, you should be about to break through to the Golden Core Realm."

Gu Xuan sighed, with a hint of anticipation and nervousness on his face.

"Yes, in fact, I came to you this time because I hope you can protect me."

When Ye Yang heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"This is good news. Congratulations to the Sect Master for entering the Golden Core Realm!"

Gu Xuan smiled slightly, but then said with some concern.

"The risk of breaking through the Jindan stage is not small. Although I have made all the preparations, the result is still uncertain, so it is hard to say anything."

Ye Yang nodded to show his understanding.

Although the difficulty of breaking through the Golden Elixir realm is not as difficult as for a warrior to break through the True Person realm, it is still quite dangerous.

The slightest carelessness may lead to failure or even go astray.

"Master, rest assured. I will protect you and ensure everything goes smoothly."

(two)

After the agreement was reached, Ye Yang and Gu Xuan flew up and soon returned to Feitian Gate and entered the quiet room in the cave in the back mountain.

This cave is located in a cave in the back mountain. Not only is it filled with rich spiritual energy, but also countless spiritual herbs for calming the meridians have been planted there over the years.

The internal spiritual energy has almost condensed into substance, turning into raindrops and dripping onto the ground.

The room was simply decorated, with a cushion in the center and various instruments and elixirs to assist in cultivation surrounding it.

Gu Xuan sat cross-legged on the cushion, closed his eyes, concentrated, and began to regulate his breathing.

Ye Yang stood aside, forming seals with his hands and activating the protective formation around him.

These formations can not only protect Gu Xuan from external interference, but also provide the necessary spiritual energy support when he breaks through.

As time went by, Gu Xuan's aura gradually became stronger and stronger.

A faint light began to emanate from his entire body, and the spiritual energy in his body surged, especially the eight-armed evil dragon hand in his arm, which kept twisting and dancing as if it had life.

To be alive.

At this moment, it seemed that a huge power was brewing in the one arm.

Ye Yang observed Gu Xuan's condition intently.

Always be prepared for any situation that may arise.

Finally, at a certain moment, the spiritual power in Gu Xuan's body reached its peak. He suddenly opened his eyes, and a dazzling light flashed in his eyes.

A powerful spiritual energy burst out from his body, forming a golden vortex that enveloped the entire back mountain space.

Amid the strong fluctuations of spiritual power, a golden pill slowly condensed in Gu Xuan's dantian.

This pill emits a dazzling light and seems to contain enormous energy.

Gu Xuan's mind was completely immersed in this power, feeling the gradual formation of the golden elixir. After a while, a powerful aura emanated from him.

One blue and one black, the Taoist and demonic energies intersect, creating a majestic aura.

This force was like a torrent, surging and causing the surrounding air to vibrate.

"Finally a breakthrough!"

Gu Xuan opened his eyes. After breaking through to the Golden Core Realm, the feeling was very different from before. Feeling the new power in his body, his heart was filled with joy and shock.

He took a deep breath and felt the changes brought about by the Jindan realm.

Compared with the previous Zifu Zhenren, the magic power in his body is now stronger and his meridians have become tougher.

There is a golden elixir in the body, which emits tremendous power as it spins.

His entire body seemed to be filled with a powerful force, which was much stronger than before.

Of course, the most important thing is the moment of breakthrough.

Gu Xuan felt that the life span in his body had been greatly extended, which was the best thing for him whose life span was quite tight.

"Congratulations to Sect Leader Gu for successfully breaking through to the Golden Core Realm! There is hope for your future."

Ye Yang stepped forward to congratulate him, and felt happy for Gu Xuan in his heart.

Gu Xuan stood up, bowed to Ye Yang and said gratefully.

"Thank you for your protection. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to break through so smoothly."

Ye Yang shook his hand and said with a smile.

"Master, you are too polite. This is the result of your years of accumulation. I am just fulfilling my due responsibilities. Your breakthrough is a great joy to Feitian Sect."

"How about we hold a Jindan ceremony?"

Gu Xuan thought about it for a moment, but still spoke.

"To me, these empty ceremonies are useless, but now that the monster army has just retreated, everything needs to be rebuilt. Holding a grand ceremony to add a touch of joy to the sect is a good thing."

Ye Yang felt that what Gu Xuan said made sense as well, so he gave orders to prepare to choose a day to hold a grand ceremony.

After parting with Gu Xuan, Ye Yang continued to study the Nine Netherworld Divine Art in the sect.

He has always wanted to combine this method with several other precious methods to create a unique method that suits his own physique.

But unfortunately, these methods are too profound and mysterious.

I feel that I have made some progress every time I practice, but it seems that I am still a little short of the real achievement.

Today, Ye Yang stood up from the quiet room, suddenly felt as if he had realized something, and looked up at the distant sky.

After a while, a breeze blew by, and in the distant sky, a figure in gorgeous fairy robes walked slowly towards them on the white clouds.

This man had a handsome face and elegant temperament. When he saw Ye Yang, he immediately understood the other party's intention.

"So it's Envoy Li who's here. What advice do you have for me?"

This person was Li Chengyan, who came to Feitianmen last time and invited Ye Yang to work in the Heavenly Court.

After hearing Ye Yang's words, he hurriedly walked up to Ye Yang and spoke.

"Greetings, Old Ancestor. When I was on the road earlier, I sensed a strong aura rising straight up into the sky from your clan. I guess someone has broken through to the Golden Core realm."

Li Chengyan smiled slightly, with a hint of respect in his tone.

Ye Yang spoke.

"It is a senior from the sect who has made a breakthrough. We hope Envoy Li will be able to attend the Golden Core Ceremony."

Li Chengyan nodded, smiled, and spoke.

"It's a great honor, of course."

After saying this, he was slightly surprised.

There is actually a cultivator in the Jindan realm in Feitian Sect.

I think it should be their old leader Gu Xuan. There are many masters in Feitian Sect nowadays, and they are indeed not easy to provoke.

After being distracted for a moment, he quickly came back to his senses, looked at Ye Yang and spoke.

"Ancestor, I came here this time to report something important."

In fact, Ye Yang had already guessed why the other party came, but he still pretended not to know and spoke.

"Emissary Li, please feel free to speak."

Li Chengyan nodded and looked at Ye Yang gently.

"Ancestor Ye, the Heavenly Court has always admired you very much. I came here this time to invite you to serve in the Heavenly Court."

The other party had said this to him before.

Ye Yang has just encountered a lot of difficulties in the process of cultivation. The Heavenly Court is very powerful and has a lot of information that is difficult for ordinary people to obtain.

There may even be quite a few Taoist teachings circulating.

For him, it was just right.

In addition, now that there is a powerful enemy, Netherworld Huangquan, in front of them, both the Dayun Dynasty and Yalongling have relatively fewer conflicts.

"Thank you for the trust and recognition of the Heavenly Court." Ye Yang said after thinking for a moment.

"I heard that there is a mirror in the heavens that can help people understand themselves and the truth between heaven and earth. If I have the opportunity to use this treasure, it may be of great help to my practice."

"Ancestor Ye is indeed well-informed. The Heavenly Dao Mirror is indeed one of the greatest treasures of the Heavenly Court. It can help cultivators better comprehend the Dao of Heaven and Earth, find their own hearts, and improve their cultivation and realm."

"If the ancestor is willing to accept the invitation, the Heavenly Court will naturally provide you with such an opportunity."

Ye Yang thought about it for a while, then made up his mind and spoke.

"In that case, let's go to the Heavenly Palace in a few days."

Li Chengyan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He was so overjoyed that even his expression relaxed a little.

"Everyone in the Heavenly Court will warmly welcome your arrival. I will go back and report immediately and arrange everything to ensure that your trip goes smoothly."

Ye Yang nodded to express his gratitude.

"Thank you, Envoy Li. I will also handle the affairs of Feitianmen as soon as possible so that I can go to the Heavenly Palace as soon as possible."

At this time, Li Chengyan spoke again.

"By the way, Senior, Young Master Ye Fan has already arrived at the Imperial Dynasty."

When Ye Yang heard this, his heart suddenly tightened and he asked quickly.

"What happened to Ye Fan? How is his situation in Dayun Dynasty?"

The Heavenly Messenger said slowly.
"Young Master Ye Fan was determined to reform the dynasty, established schools, and recruited a large number of children from poor families and ordinary people. He sheltered the poor and sought welfare for the people. Some people in the folks said that he was the reincarnation of a saint."

After hearing this, Ye Yang felt both relieved and proud.

He knew that Ye Fan had poor aptitude since childhood and did not have much future in cultivation.

Now that he has been able to achieve something in the Dayun Dynasty and realize his ambitions, it can be regarded as the realization of his ideas.

No matter what, he would be happy for the other person.

Ye Yang sighed, and his tone softened a little.

"Emissary Li, Ye Fan is in the imperial court. I am quite far away from him, so it is inevitable that I cannot take good care of him. At this critical moment, I hope you can take care of him."

When Li Chengyan heard this, he waved his hands quickly. He knew how terrifying this person was, so he waved his hands quickly and spoke hurriedly.

"You are too polite, Old Ancestor. Young Master Ye has performed outstandingly in the Dayun Dynasty and is highly appreciated by the upper echelons of the dynasty. The Heavenly Court is also paying close attention to his development. You can rest assured that the Heavenly Court will do its utmost to ensure his safety and smooth development."

After he finished speaking, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought to himself.

'Everyone knows the temper of this ancestor. He is an expert in both swords and sabers, and he has the power of the entire sect behind him. He only has one son. If anyone dares to take his son's life, he will probably die even if he flees to the ends of the earth.'

Ye Yang nodded, feeling slightly relieved.

"Thank you, Envoy Li. I feel much more relieved after hearing your words."

Li Chengyan smiled slightly and sighed in his heart.

No matter what level of cultivation one has reached, the love between father and son is always the hardest to forget.

"Please rest assured, Master Ye will be the safest in the Dayun Dynasty no matter what." (End of this chapter)
