Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 549: Three Hundred Reincarnations, Three Thousand Years in the Outside World

In Hansong Temple, Xiao Mengwan, the beloved daughter of the Sanfeng elder, married Wei Zhong, a young disciple under his command.

The nine peaks are decorated with colorful lights and drums and harps are playing together.

Wei Zhong watched himself toasting back and forth with his elders and fellow apprentices.

Finally, the intoxicated man was sent to the bridal chamber.

The spring night passed in one night.

Wei Zhong officially became a Taoist couple with Xiao Mengwan, which aroused the envy of his fellow disciples.

After several years, Xiao Mengwan gave birth to a son and a daughter, and Wei Zhong had a son and a daughter, enjoying the happiness of a happy family...

Wei Zhong's soul merged into the body of "Wei Zhong" and he watched what he experienced as if he were there himself.

Gradually, Wei Zhong forgot his own existence and truly became the Qi-refining disciple of Hansong Temple.

After practicing all the way, he achieved the foundation-building body after sixty years and was honored to be the elder of the sect.

The master in the peak was extremely pleased, and the next day he entered the peak into seclusion, entrusting all the affairs of the peak to Wei Zhong.

Ten days passed in a flash, and the master's soul lamp went out.

There were wailing sounds from the three peaks.

Wei Zhong and his wife wore mourning clothes and kept vigil for seven days.

Several decades passed again.

His beloved wife Xiao Mengwan practiced for a hundred years, but was ultimately unable to withstand the erosion of time. She failed to break through the foundation-building barrier and died thirty years after Wei Zhong was promoted.

Seeing the life breath of the beauty in his arms fade away, Wei Zhong shed two lines of tears.

Looking back, I saw that my son and daughter both had mature faces, probably in their sixties or seventies.

Forty years passed in a whirlwind. As time went by, Wei Zhong had guarded three graves and became a truly lonely man.

Out of compassion, he retreated behind the scenes and no longer interfered in the affairs of the sect.

Traveling around the world, he gained an opportunity and was able to break through the golden elixir barrier.

After returning from forming the elixir, he encountered the sect in trouble and destroyed it by force.

Everyone in Hansong Temple respects the position of Patriarch Wei Zhong.

However, Wei Zhong did not like worldly affairs and escaped again.

After practicing Taoism for 500 years, Wei Zhong himself could not escape the end of his life and was liberated into immortality on a small island in Nanming Xianhu Lake.

……

The fragrance of lotus emerged in his nose, and Wei Zhong's soul appeared in the special space of the Mirror of Rebirth.

The clouds around were floating in a random pattern, just like the confused and uncertain mind of Wei Zhong.

During the five hundred years, he forgot himself and truly became the "Wei Zhong" of Hansong Temple.

Washed away by the years and memories, he was almost sinking. If it were not for the guardian Qingming Lianxiang, he would have been completely trapped in the Mirror of Rebirth.

The powerful spiritual consciousness at the Xuanxian level is of no use in front of this holy object.

Wei Zhong's soul stroked his forehead lightly, coming out of his confusion. He searched his whole body but did not notice any gain.

As he hesitated, he saw the curtain in front of him open. Wei Zhong raised his head and his consciousness instantly sank into it.

……

"Get up, get up, and collect the mushrooms. If you can't collect enough, you will stay in this Graystone Valley for the rest of your life..."

Following the steward's order, Wei Zhong and his companions got up from the bunk bed, had a hurried breakfast, and followed the crowd into the valley.

Xianmen Cliff is located in the Huishi Valley, a valley under its jurisdiction. The terrain in the valley is special, with spiritual energy from heaven and earth nourishing it above and evil spirits floating up from the ground below.

When the two energies collide, a fairyland is created, where countless spiritual mushrooms are raised.

If outsiders come to visit the sect and collect enough spiritual mushrooms, they can enter the immortal gate.

Wei Zhong is twenty years old and has been here for four years, but he has only raised 20% of the shares, and the day when he can enter the immortal gate is nowhere in sight.

He picked mushrooms for sixteen years without any chance. It was not until he was thirty-six that he went to the Cliff Residence and became a servant of the Immortal Sect.

It is not easy to practice menial work, and Wei Zhong's age is a further drag. Others take a hundred days to sense the Qi and a year to enter the Tao, but it took Wei Zhong four full years.

At the age of forty, he was able to enter the stage of Qi training, received the immortal sect token and robe, and became one of the thousands of disciples in Duanya Ju.

In this life, Wei Zhong did not have the smooth sailing as in his previous life.

He was in his forties, but he was not favored by the elders of the sect, and no one was willing to accept him as a disciple.

Wei Zhong held a copy of "Blue Stone Secret" in his hand and practiced for more than fifty years. He barely entered the third level of Qi Refining, but was unable to break through. He lived to be a hundred years old and died of old age in the sect.

Not to mention traveling around the world, in this life, Wei Zhong has never even stepped out of the Gray Stone Valley in front of the Cliff Residence.

One life of legend, one life of mediocrity.

Wei Zhong soon came to the third life, in which he had no chance to become an immortal.

Born in a farming family.

I was born listening to the chirping of cicadas, worked hard all my life, and then I heard the chirping of cicadas again and closed my cloudy eyes.

In the fourth life, his circumstances were slightly better. Instead of working in the fields, he began to read books of sages.

Unfortunately, after studying for forty years, he still failed to pass the imperial examination and could only get a position as a student.

He became a teacher in the town's academy and taught for thirty years, leaving amid the wailing of scholars.

The rest of his lives were spent in the mortal world, either as a farmer or a wealthy businessman, sometimes entering the court, sometimes being kept in prison...

Wei Zhong savored hundreds of lives in the human world, and when he returned to the special space of the Mirror of Rebirth, his eyes were full of confusion and he almost forgot himself.

If it weren't for the lingering lotus fragrance at the tip of my nose, I would have been lost long ago.

As long as the lotus fragrance has not faded, the journey of reincarnation will naturally not stop.

Wei Zhong's soul plunged into the next layer of painting.

"It's born, it's born!
"Congratulations, Senior Brother. Senior Sister has given birth to a big fat boy for you."

Danxia Sect, Sect Leader Wei Changfeng had a son and named him Wei Zhong.

As soon as Wei Zhong was born, strange phenomena occurred throughout the sect.

The rosy clouds were brilliant, and the sun above was haloed like divine light.

Wei Zhong was only three years old, but he was able to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. His talent was so strong that even his father was amazed.

However, at the age of three, the foundation of the child’s body is not yet fully developed and so cultivation is not possible.

Wei Zhong read thousands of poems and books and had a full understanding of the path of cultivation. Only then did he successfully draw qi into his body at the age of sixteen.

After the next two years, it will take you to break through the early stage of Qi Refining, four years to break through the middle stage of Qi Refining, and ten years to break through the late stage of Qi Refining.

At the age of only 32, he entered the foundation-building stage, becoming the youngest foundation-building cultivator in the entire sect.

At this time, Wei Zhong was in high spirits. Not only did he have a high level of cultivation, but his combat power was also among the strongest in the same realm.

He learned countless magical skills from the Danxia Sect, and his Danding swordsmanship helped him defeat many powerful enemies.

Even though others were wary and attempted assassinations frequently, they were all suppressed by Wei Zhong.

Everything went smoothly along the way. After a hundred years, Wei Zhong condensed a golden elixir and became the youngest golden elixir cultivator in Yunzhou Continent.

After that, he traveled outside the state, passed through thousands of dangerous situations, found over a hundred opportunities, and gradually gained the name of Dan Ding Zhenren.

After practicing for a thousand years, Wei Zhong condensed his Nascent Soul, which transformed into a god, and ascended to the upper realm in one fell swoop.

The legend has not yet ended. In the spiritual world, Wei Zhong's cultivation is still advancing by leaps and bounds, and he has reached the levels of Lianxu, Hedao, and Mahayana, all the way to ascending to the fairyland.

After refining a Tao seed, he crossed the realm of a wandering immortal and entered the realm of a true immortal.

Later he condensed the Dharma domain and achieved the status of a mysterious immortal.

After being an immortal for 100,000 years, he inherited the immortal legacy, shed his five elements foundation, and entered the Avenue of Time.

By using it to break through to the Daluo realm, one's own laws condense into a great avenue of time, independent of the fairyland and the world. This is the immortal among immortals, gathering great power in one's body.

Wei Zhong wanted to fight for the position of the Time Ancestor, but he was not strong enough to defeat the powerful enemy and was forced to surrender when surrounded by his hawks and dogs.

A remnant soul tried to escape to the lower world.

Ten thousand years later, returning to the fairyland and retracing the road of time, it was still the same.

This time, his body and soul were destroyed, and Wei Zhong died completely. In the Rebirth Mirror, Wei Zhong twisted his beard, with regret and emotion on his face:

"Even if this is a simulation of the Rebirth Mirror, the path of time is still blocked?"

Wei Zhong was helpless.

"But the reincarnations in this mirror are all illusions and cannot be taken as true."

He sniffed the tip of his nose and found that the fragrance of the Qingming lotus had not faded yet, and Wei Zhong continued his reincarnation.

Wei Zhong spent a full three hundred lifetimes in the mirror of rebirth, experiencing a variety of lives.

Sometimes one is born in poverty and has no achievements, and sometimes one is born into an immortal family and has a smooth journey of practice.

After three hundred generations, Wei Zhong looked confused, and a sense of enlightenment surged in his heart.

The sea of ​​consciousness surged, and a Tao seed slowly took shape.

Wei Zhongyuan stared at this thing, and his heart seemed to recall hundreds of lifetimes of sorrow.

Opening my eyes and gazing intently, the Tao Seed was dim, and inside it was like the Styx in the underworld.

I suddenly felt emotional:

"The seed of reincarnation is finally complete!"

There was only a trace of the Qingming Lotus fragrance left. Wei Zhong raised his head and saw the empty space in the mirror. His consciousness moved and his soul instantly left his body and returned to his body.

He moved his fingers, cutting off the supply of immortal energy to the Mirror of Rebirth.

Then he touched the sealing fairy pattern again and sealed the mirror again.

Before Wei Zhong could verify the wonders of the reincarnation seed, he noticed that the sound transmission notes were flashing frequently in front of the cave door.

He selected one or two of them to check. A familiar voice fell into Wei Zhong's ears and his expression suddenly changed.

When Wei Zhong went out and asked a random disciple of Xuanting Academy, he realized that three thousand years had passed since he started his retreat.

"Three hundred generations in the mirror, but three thousand years in the outside world?"

Wei Zhong was shocked. He didn't expect that such a long time would pass during his retreat.

Seclusion for three thousand years is not scary, but what makes Wei Zhong regretful is that he missed the Five Elements Immortal Palace Conference which started a thousand years ago.

There were several talismans in front of the cave entrance, including several left by Xie Yuanping, inviting Wei Zhong to attend the meeting.

Unfortunately, Wei Zhong’s consciousness was sunk into the Mirror of Rebirth, and he was completely unaware of anything in the outside world.

He wanted to find Jie Yuanping himself, but learned from Jiang Qianmeng that the latter had been away from the palace for a hundred years to carry out a mission within the palace.

Then I looked for Zhong Ruichuan, but he was also busy with palace tasks and had no time to spare.

When Wei Zhong stopped, he realized that he was completely alone in the Thunder Palace, without a single acquaintance.

“No matter how long you practice Taoism, whether it’s hundreds or thousands of years, or tens of thousands of years, in the end, you are still alone.”

Wei Zhong felt emotional and returned to the cave.

"Time is irreversible. If you miss this Yandao Conference, you can only show your skills in the next one nine thousand years."

Wei Zhong raised his right hand, and a Tao seed appeared in his palm.

"Fortunately, these three thousand years have not been wasted. I have obtained a reincarnation seed, which can be considered a full harvest."

The law of reincarnation is one of the high-level laws, and is also the most mysterious one along with time and space.

According to Wei Zhong's understanding, most of the resources used to practice the laws of reincarnation in the world were obtained from the immortal palaces left behind by the predecessors.

However, there are only a few people who have entered this path by refining a large amount of the essence of the source of the law of reincarnation.

In contrast, Wei Zhong, who condensed a seed of the law through a broken holy object, was an outlier among outliers.

"This is opportunity!"

Wei Zhong didn't think much about it. He carefully felt the wonder of the law of reincarnation, and then integrated it into his own Hunyuan realm.

Wei Zhong put everything aside and walked to the Wanfa Stone Tablet.

Then his spiritual consciousness scanned the various wonderful methods inside.

Various mysterious techniques emerged between fingers.

[Red Flame Bullet·Experienced]...[Red Flame Bullet·Shortcut]

[Lava Armor·Master]...

[Earth fire burns the sky·Shortcut]

Wei Zhong mastered the law of lava, which was a fusion of the principles of fire and earth. Wei Zhong incorporated it into the Five Elements, enriching and strengthening it.

[Phantom Step·Proficiency]

【Mirror Flower Water Moon·Mastery】

[Three Thousand Fantasy World·Short Path]

Wei Zhong once again mastered the law of illusion.

……

Wei Zhong learned so many different kinds of techniques, some low and some high, from the very beginning all the way to near-proficiency. The speed at which Wei Zhong mastered the techniques was so fast that even Wei Zhong himself was extremely surprised.

'It seems that proficiency is improving faster than before!'

Wei Zhong's mastery of magic techniques was already far beyond that of ordinary people, and now it has improved further.

"Could this be the benefit of reincarnation for three hundred lifetimes, and finally obtaining the seeds of reincarnation?"

Wei Zhong has been practicing in the Mirror of Rebirth for at least a hundred lifetimes. He has learned countless techniques in the mirror, covering all types of techniques in the world.

Although it was a little blurry when he recalled it now, the mark engraved in his soul helped Wei Zhong master these low-level techniques faster.

"The Rebirth Mirror actually has such wonderful benefits?"

Wei Zhong showed emotion on his face, thinking that he must collect the Nine Skies Pure Dew and the Star River Spirit Mist as soon as possible, and then refine the spiritual liquid to cultivate a portion of lotus fragrance.

As Wei Zhong mastered more and more techniques, many laws and techniques, both concrete and abstract, condensed in Wei Zhong's sea of ​​consciousness.

The Record of Time kept flipping, lighting up page after page.

The Time Treasure Record at this moment is not just a single time record, it should be called "The Record of All Magic Treasures".

After practicing magic like this for thousands of years, Wei Zhong would go out to learn the method of thunder talismans or the method of refining weapons whenever he felt bored.

Wei Zhong's mastery of the two inheritances, "The Mysterious Chapter of Heavenly Craftsmanship Thunder Casting" and "The Mysterious Tingting Talisman of the Nine Skies", became more and more profound.

Thousands of years passed in a flash, and Wei Zhong had become quite skilled in refining Taoist weapons and Xuanxian Thunder Talismans.

With this ability, Wei Zhong upgraded his own natal magic weapon and refined a Hunyuan Pearl, which was located in Wei Zhong's sea of ​​consciousness and suppressed countless laws and Tao seeds.

He also integrated and upgraded several of his own magic weapons.

With time as the main trunk, space and reincarnation as branches, and the laws of the five elements, wind and thunder, yin and yang, light and darkness as fillings.

Refine a piece of "Hunyuan Daojian".

Its shape is similar to the "Mirror of Rebirth", but its essence is completely different.

Looking into the mirror, it was all chaos.

Taking a photo of a person does not reveal their image, but rather it outlines the power of the laws that they possess.

This is the detection ability of this mirror. Moreover, there are countless laws in the mirror, and each law corresponds to the various techniques practiced by Wei Zhong.

The fusion of these techniques can all lead to the achievement of immortality.

Wei Zhong only needs to activate this Daojian and use the methods therein to fight the enemy.

Small-scale time reversal and space travel are no problem.

If it weren't for Wei Zhong's limited level of weapon refining, this mirror would definitely be a sacred item.

After refining the treasure, Wei Zhong went out to take the exam.

In just a hundred years, Wei Zhongshuang passed the assessments for Level B3 disciples at both Leigongfang and Fuge.

Become an official disciple with a dual identity in Xuanting Academy.

For a time, people from all walks of life in Xuanting Academy extended olive branches to him, and even the elder Taiyi Yuxian came forward to recruit Wei Zhong into his team.
