Chapter 486 Three Ways to Become an Immortal
The Tianlu Treasure Chariot travels to the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion of Despair Slope, which is the first stop for entering Despair Slope. When the Heavenly Dao Walkers and Heavenly Dao Immortals who have gone out return to Despair Slope, they will be screened by the Heavenly Dao Divine Eyes here.

The Divine Eye of Heaven is located on the upper floor of Yingxian Pavilion. It is a vertical eye more than ten feet high. It rolls around and emits divine light. It can see through all changes and see through spells such as Transfiguration and Transfiguration Talismans. It can examine the soul and spirit, and only after verifying the true identity can one enter the Slope of Despair.

Zhong Wuwang took Fang Zhenxiu's hand, got off the car, and stood in front of Yingxian Tower. The light of the Heavenly Eye shone on him. Zhong Wuwang was a little nonchalant, but he was thinking about Yang Bi's words in his heart.

"Could the first person I met on Despair Hill really be Tianzun?"

He was hesitant. Although Yang Bi had many clever plans, he was not a god and there was a possibility that he might be wrong.

After the Eye of God swept over, the door of Yingxian Pavilion opened, and Zhong Wuwang took Fang Zhenxiu's hand and walked into Yingxian Pavilion.

At this time, a familiar voice was heard: "It's Wuwang."

Zhong Wuwang was awed, but revealed a hint of surprise. He hurriedly looked in the direction of the voice, his surprise even greater. He bowed and said, "Wuwang greets the Heavenly Lord!"

He took Fang Zhenxiu's hand and bowed down. Fang Zhenxiu felt that the young master's hand was trembling a little, and he even squeezed his hand so hard that the bones were almost broken.

Tears welled up in Fang Zhenxiu's eyes. He endured the pain and said nothing as he followed Zhong Wuwang in kneeling down.

When Zhong Wuwang knelt on the ground, he remembered that he was a little nervous and hurt his apprentice, so he quickly relaxed his palm a little.

Opposite him was an old man with white hair and white eyebrows. He was not taller than Zhong Wuwang, but he looked tall and strong.

His eyebrows are longevity eyebrows, much longer than normal people's eyebrows, hanging down along his cheeks and all the way to his earlobes.

He was wearing a plain round-necked robe with fish and dragon patterns embroidered in gold thread on the cuffs and a black python belt tied around his waist. His attire was very simple and rustic. His shoulder-length white hair was not tied up but casually scattered, giving him a rather unkempt look.

He was Tianzun, with kind eyes, a smile on his face, and a gentle gaze. He looked at Zhong Wuwang and Fang Zhenxiu, raised his hand and said with a smile: "Get up."

Zhong Wuwang stood up. Although his mind was filled with turmoil, he remained calm and showed surprise on his face: "Tianzun, why are you here in Yingxian Pavilion? It has been a long time since I last saw Tianzun and listened to his teachings. Could you please give me some guidance on my cultivation today?"

Tianzun smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Feng and I went to track down the Demon Emperor and we just came back."

"Master Feng is back?"

Zhong Wuwang was surprised and delighted, and said with a smile, "This time, Tianzun and Master Feng will definitely wipe out the Demon City!"

Tianzun shook his head and said, "Your Master Feng is still investigating the matter of the Demon City. I sensed that something happened at Despair Hill, so I came back early. The Demon King is sneaky and cunning. If we attack the Demon City without finding him, we will alert the enemy. Therefore, I did not touch the High Priest and others. Wuwang, where have you been? Is this your disciple?"

Zhong Wuwang said quickly, "This is my disciple, named Fang Zhenxiu. He is a disciple of the Yan family, the thirteenth generation family. The Yan family was exterminated by Chen Shi, so he changed his name to Fang Zhenxiu. Zhenxiu, quickly call Tianzun."

Fang Zhenxiu quickly kowtowed again.

Tianzun smiled and said, "Good boy, get up quickly."

He took out a light green jade pendant from his sleeve, stuffed it into Fang Zhenxiu's hand, and said with a smile: "Here's a small gift for you."

Fang Zhenxiu looked at Zhong Wuwang, who smiled and said, "Just accept what the Heavenly Lord gives you. Why don't you thank the Heavenly Lord?"

Fang Zhenxiu kowtowed heavily and said, "I beg the Heavenly Lord to uphold justice for my Yan family!"

Tianzun shook his head and said, "Despair Hill does not interfere in worldly affairs. The destruction of the Yan family is also due to karma. Since you have joined Despair Hill, you should study hard. Whether you can take revenge in the future depends on your personal ability."

Fang Zhenxiu said yes and climbed up.

Tianzun was surprised and said, "This child acts like an adult."

Zhong Wuwang said: "After going through drastic changes at a young age, he has to grow up faster, otherwise he will die at the hands of the old thief Chen."

He paused and said, "Tianzun, because of this child, I encountered Chen Shi and had some interactions with him. During this experience, I made a surprising discovery."

He told them what the three of them had discovered, but concealed Chen Shi and Yang Bi's guess that the culprit was Tianzun. With a worried look on his face, he said, "The culprit died together with the Great Shang Immortal. I'm worried that he is still alive, so he attacked us. I'm worried that the moon will be polluted and endanger the true god."

Tianzun stared at him and said in deep thought, "These are troubled times. The Outer Gods, the Demon King, and now another evil culprit has appeared. These beings always want to overthrow the True God and let this world fall under their rule. If it weren't for me, Despair Hill, who knows how many people would have died."

He shook his head and asked, "Wuwang, do you think the culprit is alive or dead?"

Zhong Wuwang hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know. He may be alive, controlling his flesh and blood to attack us, or he may be dead, with some remnants of his flesh and blood. Heavenly Master, it's too dangerous there, don't go!"

Tianzun looked at his face and said with a smile, "I know my limits. Wuwang, do you think that Great Shang Immortal is alive or dead?"

Zhong Wuwang thought for a moment and said, "This senior should have a chance of survival, but after he resisted the flesh and blood attack, his Dao pattern was erased. I'm afraid..."

Tianzun sighed, "Such a powerful being died quietly and without a trace. How pitiful. Where is his body?"

"A lot of them broke into pieces, and the few that were not broken were picked up by Chen Shi."

Zhong Wuwang said, "There are still some incomplete witch-sacrifice Taoist patterns on those bones, but they have become very faint and difficult to recognize. Heavenly Lord, I have written down quite a few witch-sacrifice Taoist patterns. When I understand the mysteries among them, I will write them down and send them to the Dao Institute."

Tianzun nodded gently: "You are thoughtful. Take Zhenxiu with you."

Zhong Wuwang admitted yes, took Fang Zhenxiu's hand and was about to leave, but then he stopped, wanting to say something.

Tianzun smiled and said, "What's wrong?"

Zhong Wuwang boldly said: "Heavenly Lord, I feel that my accumulation is enough, but I still cannot break through to the Mahayana stage and merge with the heaven and earth. I would like to ask the Heavenly Lord for some guidance..."

Fang Zhenxiu's hand was held by him, and he felt that his palm was wet with sweat, but Zhong Wuwang did not look nervous at all. Instead, he looked very nervous, like a disciple who did not dare to disturb his teacher but was unwilling to give up this opportunity.

"I still need to learn more from my teacher." Fang Zhenxiu thought to himself.

Tianzun's face was gentle as he pointed out, "The True King created a new method and established many realms, the highest of which is only Mahayana. But in the traditional realm, there are two more realms: transcending tribulation and ascending. In the transcending tribulation realm, one must transcend the heavenly tribulation, borrow the power of the pure yang heavenly thunder, wash away one's own dirt, and make the soul become an immortal. In the ascending realm, one must receive the immortal energy and immortal light, temper the immortal body, and make the physical body become an immortal. The new method does not have these two realms, so if you want to merge with the Tao, you must first ask, has your soul become an immortal god? Has your physical body become an immortal body?"

Zhong Wuwang was greatly shocked and bowed, saying, "Disciple, I would like to ask the Heavenly Venerable, how can I cultivate the immortal spirit and immortal body?"

He just stopped to ask in order to clear his suspicion. But this time he asked the Heavenly Lord sincerely, hoping to get an answer.

Tianzun seemed to have the momentum to tell everything he knew, and continued to instruct: "In the past, the True King led the people of Daming to this world. Many cultivators practiced the old methods, cultivated to the pinnacle, and survived the heavenly tribulation. I also observed them and found that although they had evil changes, some of them were very wise and suppressed the evil changes with various methods. After they survived the tribulation, the sky cracked, and immortal light shone down, and immortal energy fell from the sky. They drew the immortal energy and immortal light from the immortal world to temper their physical bodies and souls, so that they could merge with the Tao and ascend. Therefore, if you want to become an immortal, you must seek the immortal light and immortal energy to temper your physical body and soul."

Zhong Wuwang let go of Fang Zhenxiu's hand and bowed to Tianzun to thank him. Tianzun raised his hand lightly, and Zhong Wuwang stood up involuntarily.

"I have immortal light and immortal energy in Despair Hill, but the immortal light and immortal energy in Despair Hill is formed by the cultivators' entrustment to the True God's Dao Field, and it is not the real immortal light and immortal energy. If you merge with the True God's Dao Field and become an immortal, you will be dishonoring your innate Dao fetus."

The Heavenly Venerable taught earnestly, "If you want the true immortal light and immortal energy, the first is to find the immortal cave paradise, the second is to overcome the calamity, and the third is to temper yourself through thousands of hammers and polishes, and through the hard work, let your soul and body become immortal. Of these three methods, the first is easier, the second is more refined, and the third is the safest. Wuwang, you have an innate Taoist fetus, no matter which one you choose, you can become an immortal. I hope you can find a way to immortality for the world."

Zhong Wuwang bowed and said, "Wuwang will follow the instructions of the Heavenly Lord."

Tianzun waved his hand and let him leave.

Zhong Wuwang took Fang Zhenxiu's hand and left Yingxian Pavilion, flying towards his own Tiandao Peak.

Fang Zhenxiu looked up and said, "Master..."

Zhong Wuwang gestured with his eyes, shook his head slightly, and said, "Zhenxiu, what's the matter?"

Fang Zhenxiu was very smart and suddenly realized what was going on. He held the jade pendant given by Tianzun and handed it over, saying, "Master, I'm hungry."

Zhong Wuwang took the jade pendant, smiled, and said, "Master will take you to find some delicious food."

He looked at the jade pendant and became secretly alert.

"My every move is likely to be heard by the Heavenly Master through this greeting gift. But fortunately Zhenxiu is smart."

He said silently in his heart, "Yang Bi, you guessed right. Tianzun is most likely the culprit. He killed all the gods in the Great Shang Heavenly Court and died together with the Great Shang Immortals. He may have taken over the body of a Great Shang citizen and plotted a comeback. If you want to verify it, you need to know the ages of all the Heavenly Dao Immortals to see if any of them are officials of the Great Shang court! This is not very difficult."

Zhong Wuwang arranged for Fang Zhenxiu to stay and taught him how to practice. He thought to himself, "I wonder how Chen Shi is doing, and whether the Great Shang Immortal is still alive."

When Chen Shi returned to Qianyang Mountain, he immediately found the beekeeper Azhuo, collected beeswax and rosin to boil some glue, and used the glue to piece the fairy bone together bit by bit.

Although the immortal bone was restored to its original state, the Taoist patterns on its surface were vague and unclear.

Chen Shi observed carefully and found that the Taoist patterns of witchcraft seemed to be flowing slowly.

"You won't die in this way?"

He couldn't help but marvel at how powerful the Great Shang's immortal magic was.

However, the recovery of the witch priest's Taoist patterns is very slow, and I don’t know how long it will take to fully recover.

Yang Bi was eager to go home, so he asked Chen Shi for leave. Chen Shi smiled and said, "I promised my sister-in-law that I would personally send you home. I will use the Little Heaven to send you back."

Yang Bi expressed his gratitude.

Chen Shi raised the Heavenly Court Order and entered the Small Universe with him, asking, "Brother Yang, have you seen my Huangpo Village? What do you think?"

Yang Bi thought for a moment and said, "On the loess slope, immortals stand in rows. The gods of China and their divine power have built a temple for the goddess to welcome her arrival. It is prosperous. There are also the four great disciples of King Chen Zhen, Chen Yindu, Xiao Wu, and other seniors. King Chen Zhen's influence is also in the underworld. The talisman masters of Hongshan Hall are all over the world. It can be said that there is no rival in the Yin and Yang worlds. The remaining twelve aristocratic families are just a mantis trying to stop a chariot. King Chen Zhen will definitely unify the world, and then he will die and disappear."

Chen Shi stopped and looked at him with a smile.

Yang Bi also stopped and looked at him.

Chen Shi smiled and said, "Tell me, why did I die after I unified the world?"

Yang Bi said, "All great power belongs to oneself. This is what King Chen Zhen told me. Nowadays, there are many masters in Huangpo Village. Who has the highest cultivation strength? How high is the power? How does it compare with the immortals of the Heavenly Dao who destroyed the upper world by themselves? The avatar of Hou Tu Niangniang descended, and the avatars of the Chinese gods appeared in large numbers. How spectacular? But why did they disappear at the end of the True King era?"

He said in a deep voice: "Just as the True King was defeated in the past, so will the True King Chen be defeated in the future. The past is a lesson for the future."

Chen Shi sighed and said, "I agree with you, but how can we gather all the power?"

Yang Bi's eyes flickered: "I think King Chen Zhen should become an immortal."

Chen Shi frowned: "How to become an immortal?"

Yang Bi said: "The highest realm of King Chen Zhen now is the Blood Lake Sutra. Holding the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword, he can fight against Zhong Wuwang without losing. Although the realm of this skill is improved by the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword, it is still a realm after all. Your realm is as high as Zhong Wuwang's. Zhong Wuwang can challenge the first immortal of the new method, and King Chen Zhen can do it too!"

Chen Shi suddenly felt the pressure.

It's not like he hadn't thought about breaking through the constraints of the old and new laws and becoming an immortal, but he felt that using the Blood Lake Scripture to achieve immortality was a bit inappropriate.

The Blood Lake Sutra is too weird. It is a matching practice with the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword, and the speed of cultivation is too fast!

This kind of martial arts must have hidden dangers!

Now Chen Shi can still block the backlash of the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword and is not affected by the Blood Lake Sutra, but what about after he becomes an immortal?
When the Dao is combined, the demonic nature of the Blood Lake Scripture and the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword will be at its strongest. It is hard to say whether he can withstand the backlash at that time.

Moreover, is it really possible to impact the fairyland by relying on the Blood Sea Hell of the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword?

Is the Hedao Blood Sea Hell a real immortal place?

Chen Shi remained silent and opened the Tianyu County Heavenly Court Order. The two walked into the gate and came to the Hongshan Hall in Tianyu County.

They walked out of Hongshan Hall and headed towards Yang's house in silence.

When they arrived at Yang's house and met Yang's sister-in-law Xiaofang, Chen Shi smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I have fulfilled your mission and brought Brother Yang back safely."

Xiaofang thanked with a smile.

Just as Chen Shi was about to return to Huangpo Village, Yang Bi's voice came from behind him: "King Chen Zhen, do you think that without the innate Dao fetus, you are no match for Zhong Wuwang? All great power belongs to yourself. If you can't do it, I will do it after you die."

Chen Shi stopped and looked back, staring like an eagle or a wolf.

"Brother Yang, please be patient. I will definitely become the first immortal!"
