I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 715 Achieving Immortality
Guided by will, the power of thunder was poured into every particle, and each particle seemed to gradually transform into a tiny world.

This world is like the celestial realm, containing all of Gu Yuanqing's information.

There is a grand array of stars formed from the imprints of the Dao, the Four Swords that formed the Four Phases of Calamity, and the illusory image of Beiquan Mountain standing tall, like a pillar supporting the sky, supporting this time. A wisp of Gu Yuanqing's primordial spirit resides within it.

Even the plants and trees in the world seem to be no different from the world of heaven and man!
This means that almost every particle contains all of its own information, which is also known as the property of immortality.

As long as there is enough vital energy, even just a single particle is enough to regenerate a physical body!

Every inch of his body was undergoing the same change.

Gu Yuanqing also felt for the first time that the vast amount of primordial energy was not enough. Every particle greedily absorbed the surrounding power before and after its transformation.

A miniature world is still a world, just like creating the world and evolving all things within a mustard seed through one's own cultivation. How great is the power required for this!

Ordinary cultivators prepare top-grade pills and spiritual veins when they undergo the Tribulation of Immortality. They also carefully select the place to undergo the tribulation. Otherwise, if they fail to complete the transformation of their power after passing the tribulation, they will regret it.
Of course, this was no problem for Gu Yuanqing. If the vast amount of vital energy was not enough, he could directly draw upon the power of Beiquan Cave.

Moreover, this so-called insufficiency is only relative to the speed at which the mustard seed world formed from its own particles absorbs power. Once it completes its transformation, the growth of these worlds can actually be accomplished in the subsequent time, a process that may take hundreds or thousands of years.

However, Gu Yuanqing condensed the entire process into the tribulation.

Time passed slowly, and the seventy-two heavenly tribulations descended one after another, becoming increasingly fierce and powerful.

The tribulation lightning carries the will of the Great Dao, arising from the changes within the cultivation world, and also serving as a test for those who defy the shackles of this world.

The vast lightning seemed to envelop the entire main peak, yet not a single blade of grass or tree in the mountain was harmed in the slightest. All the power was absorbed into Gu Yuanqing's body.

Li Chengyi looked at the main peak from afar. He knew that his father had begun his tribulation, but everything was isolated. Even he could not see anything on the main peak. He could only feel that the primordial energy in the cave was gathering towards the main peak.

"Father is alright! Mu Tianheng and Ning Xuxuan have both become Undying in the Chaotic Realm for ten thousand years, standing at the peak of Undying in the Chaotic Realm, but they are still no match for Father. Even if the power of cultivators in the Linglong Realm is weaker than that of the cultivation world, it still shows that Father's strength is above Undying in the Chaotic Realm even before he has undergone the tribulation. How could he not overcome the tribulation!"
Besides, given Father's personality, why would he attempt to overcome the tribulation without being certain of success?

Li Chengyi muttered to himself, he knew all these things, but since it concerned his father, how could he not be worried at all? Besides, when a cultivator undergoes tribulation, the stronger they are, the greater the power of the tribulation will be.

In the cultivation world, he had heard of countless peerless cultivators who ultimately fell victim to heavenly tribulations!

And who dares to say they have absolute certainty?
"Don't worry, your father will be fine, otherwise he wouldn't have left without saying anything else." Li Haotian came to Li Chengyi's side.

At this time, he had already reached the peak of the Void Heaven realm and had the hope of becoming a Celestial within thirty years. Originally, with his talent, he had suffered serious injuries in his early years that were difficult to heal and his foundation was greatly damaged. In addition, he was already old and missed the best time for cultivation. Even if he received the gift of heaven and earth, he would not have been able to cultivate so quickly.

But since he was Li Chengyi's maternal grandfather, everything in Beiquan Cave Heaven was open to him. The spiritual herbs and energy in the mountains, the soul-enhancing medicine that Gu Yuanqing fished up, and so on, were enough to make up for all the deficiencies. Naturally, the cultivation method he practiced was also the most advanced in the Qian Yuan Sect, which is why he was able to reach his current position so quickly.

His gaze also turned to the main peak, which appeared shrouded in mist and clouds, seemingly no different from usual.

Li Chengyi nodded: "I know, but until everything is settled, it's hard to feel at ease."

……

In the Demon God Mountain, the God Emperor Lieshan Yu once again cast his gaze into the distance. He could not truly see the specific scenes in the Dragon Demon Domain, but he could "see" the Heavenly Tribulation by sensing the reflection of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Judging from the timeline, the tribulation in the Black Sea region was nearing its end, yet it had not yet dissipated, indicating that the opponent had not failed in their tribulation.

This left him no choice but to take it seriously.

Every Great Immortal cultivator possesses the ability to change the course of events. For example, the barbarians in the desolate lands were at an absolute disadvantage before their Barbarian Emperor became a Great Immortal cultivator. However, after achieving this, they were able to contend with the demon race and the Demon God Mountain to some extent.

The greatest threat of the Undying Chaos is its difficulty to kill; if it becomes a mortal enemy, it will cause endless harm.

The appearance of two Undying Chaos Realm beings in the Dragon Demon Realm is enough to overturn the situation in the Demon Realm, not to mention that the strength of that person surnamed Gu is so strong!
Lie Shanyu frowned slightly, feeling somewhat hesitant, but ultimately did not dare to make a move.

He was naturally not afraid of a new Undying Chaos, but with that Gu guy around, even if he made a move, he would probably not succeed in the end, and instead make a deadly enemy.

……

Meanwhile, in the spirit realm, some people also sensed the existence of the Chaotic Undying Calamity.

The immortal cultivators of various sects all turned their attention to the cultivation world, remotely "observing" this calamity through their connection with the Great Dao.

Yunmeng Holy Land.

Holy Lord Xiao Lingyue frowned slightly.

The cultivation world is vast and boundless, and some lineages are hidden from the world, where there are many masters.

However, things are different at the Chaos Heaven level. The Chaos Heaven Tribulation will cause the Great Dao to tremble, and at their level, they can sense it to some extent.

Such a level of existence requires many opportunities to achieve, and one must undergo various trials to hone one's skills and temper one's will. It is by no means something that anyone can achieve by sitting at home and practicing diligently.

All the powerful beings of the Chaos Realm are renowned throughout the world, but the one before us is clearly not from any of the major sects of good or evil. Otherwise, he would not be undergoing tribulation in the Spirit Realm, but rather in the cultivation world.

The only known master cultivator in the cultivation world is from the Qian Yuan Sect, and he is suspected to be a successor of the Three Absolute Elders.

To be honest, Yunmeng Holy Land has some grudges against them.

His true disciple Xiao Yunqi's Yin-Yang opportunity was seized by the people of Qianyuan Sect. When the divine tortoise broke into Yunmeng Ancient Marsh, he also fought it from a distance.

Today, this person has achieved immortality, but the cause and effect of this may need to be resolved in the future.

The Spirit Lord also looked towards the cultivation world, and unlike Xiao Lingyue, he had a slight smile on his face.

The Three Absolutes Elder's legacy has appeared in the world, and he actually attaches great importance to it. However, a mere Hun Tian Realm cultivator will not have a significant impact, but it is different when the Hun Tian Undying level is reached.

With their help, the pressure of facing the extraterrestrial demons will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.

"It seems that the Four Symbols Sword Dao of Suppressing Calamity is finally about to reappear!" Ji Shan stood with his hands behind his back in the Xuan Tian Pavilion, his eyes revealing a hidden secret.

He had only met Gu Yuanqing a few times, but they had always had a pleasant conversation. Xuantian Pavilion had received favors from Qingping Dao Palace, so it was both reasonable and emotional to see Gu Yuanqing successfully overcome his tribulation.

In contrast to the righteous sects who were happy to see this happen, some unorthodox sects had a different perspective. In particular, the Netherworld Sect and the Holy Heaven Sect had some grudges with the Qian Yuan Sect. Even if their level was only Heavenly Transformation and Yin-Yang, the fact that the other side had become the Undying Chaos Sect was ultimately not a good thing for them. Moreover, at their level, their Dao Heart could naturally sense the secrets of heaven. When they sensed the appearance of the Undying Chaos Sect in the cultivation world, they felt a vague unease in their hearts.

However, similarly, no one dared to make a move.

The aura of the Spirit Lord soared into the sky, as if a gaze swept across all directions. Anyone who dared to interfere in this calamity might be met with a strike from the Spirit Lord.

With the arrival of extraterrestrial demons, a true catastrophe could strike at any moment.

A hundred years ago, when the sect leader of Lingxu Sect was undergoing the Chaotic Tribulation, someone attempted to stop him and made a move in secret. Although the person who made the move was at the peak of Yin and Yang, it still attracted the questioning of the Spirit Venerable.

The immortality of the Chaos Realm is even more important; the Spirit Lord will not allow anyone to disrupt the overall situation!

Therefore, no one dared to take the risk.

……

The final heavenly tribulation descended.

The tribulation clouds over the cultivation world and the demon realm slowly dissipated, and a torrential rain poured down, as if everything just now was an illusion.

In the Dragon Demon Realm.

The demons breathed a sigh of relief. Although they knew it was someone else undergoing tribulation, they still couldn't suppress the fear stemming from their bloodline instincts in the face of such power.

On the bamboo mountain, Xiong Mo looked at Xiong Ba with a headache.

"Second brother, what do you think we should give as a congratulatory gift this time?"

Xiong Ba took a bite of the Demon Lord's Bamboo, chewing as he asked blankly, "A congratulatory gift?"

Xiong Mo slapped him across the face, saying with exasperation, "All you do is eat! You've lived for so many years, how come you don't understand human relationships at all? We are under the protection of Young Master Gu. How can we turn a blind eye to the fact that the mountain dweller survived this tribulation and became an immortal cultivator?"

Xiong Ba rolled several times on the ground, got up, and dared not speak out despite his anger. After a long while, he hesitated and said, seemingly reluctant, "There are still quite a few purple bamboos left from this year's harvest, so how about..."

Enraged, Xiong Mo slapped him again.

The Dragon Clan and the four royal families of the Dragon Demon Realm were also discussing what to send as a gift. This was a rare opportunity to openly visit Young Master Gu and establish good relations so that their clans could live in peace in the Dragon Demon Realm.

Especially after Gu Yuanqing's protection of the Demon Phoenix Clan last time, they were truly convinced of Gu Yuanqing's abilities.

The demon race worships the strong, and they are no exception. This strong person has received offerings and is willing to protect them and help them when they encounter trouble. How could they not hold on tightly to this powerful figure?

……

Within the North Spring Cave.

Gu Yuanqing remained seated cross-legged, his body still wreathed in purple lightning.

This is the power of the heavenly tribulation that has not yet been fully digested, which has been forcibly retained around the body by the power of controlling objects.

His aura was still rapidly rising. He had survived the tribulation of the Chaotic Undying, but his transformation was not yet complete. He was rapidly replenishing the power of the particles throughout his body with the power of Beiquan Mountain.

The spiritual energy in Beiquan Cave Heaven seemed to have decreased by about 10% in the half-day of this tribulation, which shows how vast the spiritual energy Gu Yuanqing needed was.

His Celestial World was too vast, and he had comprehended too many Great Daos, especially the core of which was the Dao of Space. This made the size and stability of the space of each of his particles far exceed those of ordinary Undying Great Cultivators, and the spiritual energy he needed was naturally far greater than that of ordinary cultivators.

The reduction in spiritual energy within Beiquan Cave also accelerated the conversion of the demonic energy of the underground cave.

The demonic energy around the place where Beiquan Mountain fell has turned into a huge vortex, absorbing the surrounding demonic energy. Even so, the demonic energy here is much thinner than in other places.

It was fortunate that Gu Yuanqing possessed the Northern Spring Grotto and the vast ocean of spiritual energy; otherwise, the consumption of this spiritual energy alone might have been enough to deplete the reserves of a major sect in the Spirit Realm.

This is also why cultivators of these sects generally only specialize in one or two Great Daos. In addition to the difficulty of comprehending the Dao, the resources consumed at each step of cultivation will increase exponentially for each additional Great Dao they cultivate.

If it were someone else, even with sufficient resources, it would probably take their entire life just to fill the time it takes to build up their physical body.

Even Gu Yuanqing spent a whole month sitting in the mountains before his need for spiritual energy decreased.

The Chaotic Undying Realm was completely stable. He felt his own power. At this moment, he felt that he could reach the level of merging with the Northern Spring Cave Heaven before the tribulation with his own power. He felt as if he could destroy a world with a single punch.

Of course, he knew very well that this was an illusion of self-perception after his power surged, and that he needed to become more familiar with his own power over time in order to fully control it.

He let out a long breath, and the joy of surviving the heavenly tribulation and becoming an immortal being finally rose in his heart. Even with his state of mind, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Along with this came a sense of security. As the Undying Chaos One, he had already reached the pinnacle of the cultivation world. As for the Linglong Realm, only the powerful figures of the Primordial Divine Sect could threaten him.

This threat will also diminish over time, because his breakthrough in realm also means that the growth rate of Beiquan Cave Heaven itself will accelerate.

Even now, with his current strength, his ability to control Beiquan Cave Heaven is many times greater than before his tribulation.

The difference is like this: before, he was a three-year-old child holding a gun facing a criminal, and the outcome was uncertain; now, he is an adult proficient in weapons holding the same weapon, and the situation is naturally completely different.

Another point is that the existence of the immortality characteristic also allows for mistakes. Unlike before, when the health was too thin and if you were to accidentally fall into a trap, you would die completely!

He then followed the aura of the Myriad Paths Returning to the Flow Talisman to look at the forbidden land of the Dao Source in the Divine Ruins, and at the Tai Xu Creation Wheel floating in the sky.

Achieving immortality also means he has the means to find a way to control the power of this divine artifact!

The unity of the soul, body, and Dao imprint almost eliminates the risk of being possessed, and previous concerns no longer become concerns.

“However, there are some things that need to be dealt with first!” His gaze fell on Li Chengyi on the side peak.
