On the Avenue.

Chapter 369 Possible Path to Immortality
Chen Shi and Hei Guo left the capital of Tianchi and followed the caravan of Juxianlou to Wuliang Cliff.

According to Shao Jing, there is a weak point here connecting to another underworld. By walking from here, you can come to the underworld corresponding to Qianyang Mountain, and it will be much easier to return to the world of the living from there.

Hongshan Hall built a bridge at the weak point. It was an arched bridge with one end spanning the Wuliang Cliff. When it reached the center of the bridge, the bridge suddenly disappeared.

But if you walk to the middle of the bridge, just take one more step forward and you will find that you are not falling off the cliff, but have come to the other half of the bridge.

This half of the bridge spans a dried-up underworld river, but only half of the bridge is visible; the other half is completely invisible.

The construction of the bridge is truly ingenious.

Chen Shi and Hei Guo came to the bridge and looked down, only to see endless corpses of gods hanging on the cliff.

No one knows how long this Wuliang Cliff is, so no one knows how many corpses of gods are hanging on the cliff.

"What exactly is a misty moon?"

Chen Shi retracted his gaze and thought, "Why do these divine corpses come back to life on a foggy moon night? Where do the divine corpses come from?"

He asked the ghost tribe leaders such as Lei Qu, but the poems circulated by these ghost tribes did not mention the origin of these divine corpses.

Chen Shi walked to the other side of the arch bridge and looked out at Yinquan Sea. There was a spring in the sea called Yinquan, which gushed out endless cold air all day long. On the sea, there were large trees rooted in the sky, and under the trees there were huge coffins.

"Why can't we see Yinshan Mountain here at all?"

He looked back and saw nothing on the other side of the broken bridge. He couldn't help but shake his head and left with the black pot.

They returned to Huangpo Village, and Chen Shi stayed in the village for a few days, burning incense and offering sacrifices to the Zhenwu Sword every day. He and Hei Guo were away for a long time this time, so they planned to stay at home for a few more days before leaving for Taihua Qing Palace.

His skeleton remained in the capital of Tianchi and he continued to be the ruler.

This skeleton body possesses his thoughts and can practice independently, collect divine blood, take care of itself, and even fight, without him having to worry about it.

It’s just that the skeleton body cannot handle complex issues, but with the cabinet around, I think there are no complex issues that need to be dealt with.

The skeleton body practiced the Blood Lake Sutra, and its progress in cultivation had far surpassed Chen Shi, comparable to a strong man in the spirit refining realm, while Chen Shi had only just entered the fusion realm, and had to practice Yin and Yang refining every day to refine the evil spirit in his body.

Of course, the skeleton body is just an external body of Chen Shi. Once Chen Shi takes back the Blood Lake Sutra, his strength will far exceed that of the skeleton body.

The Blood Lake Scripture's effect on improving one's cultivation is secondary; its effect on the soul is truly astonishing. Chen Shi's soul is stronger than ever before, and any spells that attack his soul or his spirit will not be able to hurt him!
As for how strong his soul was, Chen Shi had no idea.

"Xiao Shi, we need to tell you something."

Granny Sha, Du Yiran, Ah Zhuo and others came to Huangpo Village and said to Chen Shi, "This matter is extremely important. Don't be surprised later."

Chen Shi blinked and thought, "What they want to tell me is not the original star map, right? I already know it."

Granny Sha hesitated for a moment and said to Ah Zhuo, "You have always been heartless. You go tell him."

Ah Zhuo glanced at her and slowly told her how they exorcised the demon for Chen Shi, but a disaster occurred. He was dull and not good at expressing himself, so he made the process, which should have been exciting, become dry.

Chen Shi sometimes showed a look of horror, sometimes a look of worry, sometimes he was happy for the success of exorcising the demon for everyone, and sometimes he was worried that the demon was cunning and powerful.

Granny Sha, Du Yiran and the others became more and more suspicious. Qingyang grabbed Hei Guo's neck and said angrily, "You told him in advance, right? Traitor!"

Hei Guo folded his ears in grievance and tucked his tail between his legs.

Hu Xiaoliang whispered, "Saoyang, put down the blame quickly. Think about his mother."

Qingyang was stern and put down the pot.

Chen Shi said embarrassedly: "I forced Hei Guo to say it, it has nothing to do with him."

Granny Sha smiled and said, "We were worried that you wouldn't be able to accept it, so we didn't plan to tell you. Now that you know and have accepted this reality, we are relieved. After the natural disaster showed us the star map, we each went to the heavens and sensed something according to the star map. This time, we came here just for this matter."

Chen Shi was excited and said, "I have long suspected that this star map is the starry sky blocked by the outer true god. Did you find the corresponding star position according to the map?"

Granny Sha, Du Yiran and others looked at each other and nodded silently.

Granny Sha said, "We did sense the corresponding stars. Not only that, with the specific locations of these stars, I will definitely have fewer obstacles when I break through to the Return to Void Realm. Unlike them back then."

When Du Yiran and others broke through to the Return to Void Realm, they encountered great obstacles and were unable to finalize when they opened up the void. Even if they discovered many relics of the True King era and pieced together the star map of China's Shenzhou, it was difficult to stabilize the Return to Void Realm.

If she continued to practice in this way, when Granny Sha reached the Return to Void Realm, she would probably be stuck at this realm and unable to make any further progress.

Among the five evil men, Granny Sha is the youngest except Ah Zhuo. She is also very talented, but her son Xiang Tianyu was lost in the underworld and her family broke up, which prevented her from concentrating on her practice and delayed her for many years.

Now that she has found Xiang Tianyu and regained her youth, her cultivation has begun to advance by leaps and bounds again.

With the original star map, it would be a natural thing for her to break through to the Return to Void Realm.

Moreover, she used the original star map to open up the void realm, which was more perfect and more powerful than other people's void realms.

Of course, Du Yiran, Azhuo and others can also use the original star map to repair the errors and omissions in their own void realm, which can also greatly improve their strength.

Du Yiran said: "We are here to pass on the original star map to you."

Chen Shi was inexplicably moved, but then he thought: "My father also helped me to exorcise the demon, he should have seen the star map, why didn't he teach it to me himself but let Granny Sha and the others teach it?"

Du Yiran opened up his own void realm and allowed Chen Shi to enter it to comprehend the position of every star and every constellation, as well as the principles of their movement and changes.

"There are thirty-six celestial beings, seventy-two earthly demons, four celestial palaces in the southeast, northwest, Zhongtian, Beidou and other constellations in the starry sky. We spent more than ten days and finally matched these stars one by one."

Du Yiran's soul sat in the vast void. He raised his hand slightly, and Chen Shi flew up involuntarily and landed in his palm.

Du Yiran moved her hand gently, but Chen Shi saw the stars in the sky moving and changing, the galaxy flowing, it was indescribably wonderful.

“Why is the original star map so important?”

Du Yiran's soul rumbled, "Because this involves the integration of the Dao. In the Returning to the Void Realm, cultivators open up the void, build their own world, and create the heavens, the earth, the sun and the moon, the stars, the rivers, the lakes, the seas, the mountains and hills. Ultimately, they must achieve integration with themselves. This is the Mahayana Realm."

He moved his palm, and Chen Shi flew in the galaxy, with the stars passing by Chen Shi.

Du Yiran stopped, and Chen Shi stopped in front of the huge East Sky Azure Dragon Palace. Large and small stars together formed this palace. "When you reach the Mahayana realm, there is heaven and earth in your body. But this heaven and earth must be combined with the external heaven and earth to verify whether your own way is the same as the heavenly way. This is the way of harmony!"

Chen Shi was shocked by the size of the Azure Dragon Palace. Suddenly, he flew to the front of the Southern Vermillion Bird Palace involuntarily. Du Yiran's voice came to his ears, "We studied this original starry sky with Chen Tang and came to a conclusion. Today's cultivation path is different from that of the True King era, but it is also possible to achieve immortality. The reason why no one has ever achieved immortality is because the star map is wrong."

Chen Shi was shocked when he heard this and immediately understood what he meant.

The Small Universe is composed of the void realm of the two ancestors of the Li family. The sun and the moon among them are obviously wrong. Their sun and moon are two eyes!
It is clearly imitating the true gods from outer space, so when opening up the vast realm of void, it evolved the sun and the moon, and evolved into eyes similar to those of the true gods from outer space!
And the starry sky is even more outrageous!
The galaxy is simply made up of stars. Countless stars are piled together, colliding with each other, and flowing in the sky.

The stars are even more bizarre in shape!

"How can such a wrong starry sky be integrated with the Tao? If it cannot be integrated with the Tao, then naturally, you cannot become an immortal!"

His heart was pounding as he thought that in the six thousand years since the end of the True King era, no one had been able to become an immortal. Obviously, the problem must lie here!
The understanding and expression of the natural world in the Huanxu realm is inconsistent with the real heaven and earth, so no one can become an immortal!

Suddenly, Du Yiran's void realm shrank and merged with his soul.

Chen Shi couldn't help but fly along the starry sky into Du Yiran's soul.

"call out!"

Accompanied by countless bright lights, he came into Du Yiran's soul and roamed inside it.

Then, colorful lights shone from all directions. It was the vision caused by the combination of Du Yiran's body and spirit!
He saw five magnificent mountains flying towards him, which were Du Yiran's five internal organs. Looking up, he saw the heavens, with misty clouds, which were the thirty-three vertebrae. He also saw the twelve-story building floating in the highest sky, and the true energy like a river in the sky, flowing up and down along the thirty-three heavens.

Looking down, you can see the Nine Bends of Yellow Springs falling down, penetrating the underworld and leading directly to the spring under your feet.

The scene of the gushing spring is like a sea of ​​​​yinquan!

This is the scene inside Du Yiran's body. When combined with the vast realm of space, there suddenly appeared the sun, moon, mountains, rivers, lakes and seas. It was truly magnificent!

Chen Shi was so excited that his vision went dark. Du Yiran showed him another possibility of cultivation!

Even if you haven't reached the Tribulation Realm, even if you haven't reached the Ascension Realm, you can still achieve the possibility of becoming an Immortal!

The path to immortality that the True King wanted to promote, the path that talented and ambitious people of all generations wanted to find, and the path that my grandfather and his friends had been exploring tirelessly in the past, finally saw hope of completing it!
The harmony of heaven and earth becomes possible!
"Xiao Shi, write down the star map and changes!"

Du Yiran's voice came, "You are following the old path of the True King era, and we are following the new path. In the future, if we fail to unite, you will try the old path! Do you understand?"

Chen Shi felt heavy in his heart: "I understand!"

From the time of the True King until now, countless talented and ambitious people have sacrificed their lives on the path of Hedao, and in the future, perhaps countless more people will be sacrificed to take this path.

Du Yiran, A Zhuo and the others are already prepared to sacrifice themselves if they fail to achieve the Hedao!

If they sacrificed themselves, then Chen Shi would have to take the old path and use the original star map to practice, overcome tribulations, ascend, and merge with the Dao to verify whether he could succeed!

If he fails, he will also sacrifice himself and become a martyr!
Chen Tang and Wu Qingyu stood not far away, and the couple watched the scene quietly.

Wu Qingyu said: "Atang, you have also sensed the original star map, and you have also opened up the void realm, why don't you teach Xiao Shi yourself?"

She was quite confused.

Chen Tang personally invited people like Granny Sha and Du Yiran to teach Chen Shi, but Chen Tang always felt that Granny Sha and the others were not up to standard, and he knew the whole thing well, so he invited others to teach him, which was very strange.

"It's difficult for parents to be strict with their children. I'm afraid that I won't be strict enough with Xiao Shi, and he will neglect his studies."

Chen Tang said, "But if we let Uncle Du teach us, they won't feel bad. They will beat us when we need to and discipline us when we need to. Besides, Xiao Shi is more receptive to their teachings than I am."

Wu Qingyu smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so silent and think so much behind my back."

Chen Tang was silent for a moment before he said, "I feel like I have always owed Xiao Shi a lot. I am ashamed to be his father..."

Wu Qingyu tightly held his arm and said softly, "You have done well enough. There is no need to blame yourself."

She remembered something and smiled, "By the way, I noticed that you have developed a habit that you didn't have before. You often look back inadvertently as if you are looking at something."

Chen Tang's heart was slightly shaken, and he shook his head and said, "I didn't see anything."

Wu Qingyu looked up at him and said seriously: "I am your wife and Xiao Shi's mother. I want to see what you saw and take some of the pressure for you. Lend me your vision, Atang, don't bear it alone."

Chen Tang hesitated for a moment and put her Nascent Soul into his own shrine.

Wu Qingyu stood beside the divine fetus. At this time, Chen Tang turned his head, and the divine light in the sky came into Wu Qingyu's eyes. A number of majestic beings like gods appeared in the sky, looking at Chen Tang and looking at them.

Chen Tang didn't read on.

Wu Qingyu flew down from his shrine and hugged him tightly.

"Atang, thank you for your hard work. Don't look back at them! They can't threaten us, don't look back!"

Chen Tang's body trembled for a moment, then he regained his composure: "I'm not afraid of them. It's just that I have a weakness."

Wu Qingyu hugged her man tightly.

His weakness is them.

If the Thirteen Families grasp this weakness, they will trap Chen Tang in the shallows of Xinxiang like a trapped dragon, preventing him from displaying his talents and realizing his ambitions.

Wu Qingyu hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Atang, you don't have to bear so much. There is one thing I have been hiding from you. Your son did a lot of things in the underworld and made a great name for himself. Some terrible beings followed him..."

Chen Tang said: "I know, is it a master from the Tianchi Ghost Country?"

Wu Qingyu shook her head slightly.

Chen Tang raised his head and looked at her in astonishment.

"It's what happened during those eight years." Wu Qingyu said softly with a gentle breath.
