The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 170 Hedao
When Li Yan brought the three great masters to watch the ceremony of King Ming succeeding to the throne.

The throne of a wise king is as stable as Mount Tai.

Many forces who learned of this news quickly set out and sent people to the imperial city to send letters of congratulations to the Ming King and declare their submission to him.

The enthronement ceremony of King Ming was completed very smoothly under the attention of all the heroes.

Just after the ceremony ended.

Li Yan suddenly felt a mighty destiny suddenly poured into his body from Ming Wang.

Soon after, another more refined destiny also merged into his body.

"I see."

"With destiny, everything is possible."

"The wise king has become the supreme ruler and has obtained the mandate of heaven. When he is in power, talented people will serve as his ministers and good generals will bow down to him."

"As the Grand Master who helped the Ming King attain enlightenment, I have received the Heavenly Dao's destiny. This has deepened my connection with the Heavenly Dao of this world, and can help me comprehend the Heavenly Dao of this world, making it easier for me to enter the realm of heavenly beings."

"At the same time, my spiritual thought has also developed a deep connection with the Heavenly Dao of this world."

The destiny he obtained is not the same.

But it was exactly the destiny he needed.

With this Heavenly Dao and Destiny, after he returns to the Real World, the Heavenly Dao of the Real World will seize the origin of the Heavenly Dao of this world through the Heavenly Dao and Destiny in his spiritual consciousness.

At the same time, you can also advance a certain distance on the spiritual path.

Now that he has been blessed by the heaven's will, he has accomplished the goal of his journey in this world and can return directly to the real world.

But no immediate action was taken.

Because he is only one step away from the realm of heaven and man.

So I prepare to break through tomorrow, first take a look at the charm of the realm of heaven and man, and then leave this world.

The next day.

When the sun rose tomorrow, colorful clouds suddenly appeared above the imperial city.

The clouds look like a palace standing in the sky, or like the gates of heaven opening wide and releasing colorful light.

The three grand masters quickly appeared on a rooftop in the imperial city, looking at the colorful vision from afar.

"A saint has come to the world!"

Liu Qinghan looked up at the sky, feeling extremely excited.

“There really is a Buddha in this world!”

The eyes of the holy monk Miaochen were bright. He clasped his hands together, bowed slightly in the direction of the morning glow in the palace, and chanted a Buddhist name.

"He actually achieved the state of heaven and man!"

Zhong Chengdao's gaze, originally as calm as water, suddenly became scorching.

The three of them felt the changes in the energy in the imperial city, and that a peerless martial saint was being born.

The martial arts masters who stayed in the imperial city and had not yet left could also see the colorful clouds in the sky.

"Could it be that this Ming King is really destined by heaven? Now that the new dynasty has just been established, such a strange phenomenon has appeared in the imperial city!"

However, a powerful and knowledgeable Grandmaster explained with an excited look: "What do you mean by destiny? If I am not mistaken, it should be that Grandmaster Li who has broken through the realm and achieved the status of a celestial being."

"The realm of heaven and man? It actually exists!"

Some warriors looked stunned, as they all thought that this realm only existed in legends.

There shouldn't be such strong people in the world.

But now, the miraculous visions of heaven and earth from the ancient legends and the appearance of the saints were right before their eyes, and they could not help but believe them.

The people in the imperial city also bowed towards the sky.

When they saw the strange phenomenon in the sky, they all believed that the Ming King was the one destined by heaven. They bowed to heaven and earth in unison and shouted the Ming King's honorable title.

Jinluan Hall.

The Ming King was dressed in a dragon robe, standing at the entrance of the hall, looking into the sky.

The ministers around him kowtowed and shouted "Long live the Ming King".

There are only a dozen ministers around King Ming now, which is pitifully small.

As soon as King Ming ascended the throne, he sent his soldiers under Li Yan's orders to put some notorious corrupt officials directly into prison.

The eunuch party that once controlled the government in the city was directly executed.

Overnight, many people were killed.

This move naturally caused dissatisfaction among many people, but King Ming transferred his own army into the capital, so even if someone wanted to resist, they would not be able to make any waves.

Ming Wang was guarded by three great masters arranged by Li Yan.

There were also ten eunuch masters originally in the imperial city who bowed in submission after he ascended the throne.

Therefore, even though some people were desperate and wanted to assassinate him, they were all stopped.

"Your Majesty, now that you have been born with strange signs, it proves that Your Majesty has been born with the destiny of heaven, so you have been born with strange signs."

"I think we can take this opportunity to send someone to announce it to the world, so that the world will be reconciled."

A minister stepped out and bowed to King Ming.

"It's time to tell the world."

Ming Wang nodded.

"But it's not for me, it's for Li Sheng."

"Li Sheng?"

The ministers around were stunned, and none of them understood who the King was talking about.

"You don't understand martial arts, so naturally you don't recognize it. This is the seven-colored vision that can only be produced when a martial artist reaches the realm of heaven and man."

"Grandmaster Li has now attained divine martial arts and has entered the realm of heaven and man, becoming a martial saint on earth and a living immortal."

Ming Wang looked at the strange sight in the sky, his eyes shining brightly and his heart surging with emotion.

He joined the army at a young age and was able to accomplish great things. He was naturally good at martial arts and also reached the level of a grandmaster.

Therefore, I am very clear about the meaning contained in the clouds in the sky.

This is to announce to the world that a martial saint has been born!
"I see!"

Some ministers understood and their eyes lit up.

However, they had never thought that Li Yan's level of martial arts practice could actually cause celestial phenomena. It was simply horrifying.

The minister who spoke first still said: "That being said, the people of the world do not know the reason. Even if we announce to the world that this strange phenomenon was caused by Your Majesty, no one will be able to refute it."

"If the cause of this strange phenomenon is transferred to Your Majesty, it will surely attract submission from all directions and admiration from all peoples!"

When King Ming heard this, his eyes suddenly became fierce.

He looked at the minister carefully, and then said in a cold voice: "Take him away and find out if there is any corruption behind him. If there is, confiscate his property and exile him. If not, remove him from office, expel him from the imperial city, and never employ him again!"

Upon hearing the noise, the nearby guards rushed over, grabbed the minister's arms and pulled him down.

The minister thought that what he said could please the king, but suddenly the king asked him to punish him, and his face turned pale.

As he was dragged away by the palace guards, he said in a panic, "Your Majesty, this move will only benefit Your Majesty. Li Sheng is high above and does not care about state affairs. Even if he knew about it, he would probably speak out in support. I have absolutely no ill intentions, Your Majesty!"

The other ministers watched coldly. They could see that the King was already angry, so they naturally would not plead for mercy at this time.

"Li Sheng has never paid attention to his own reputation, otherwise he would not have come to the imperial city in person to force the emperor to abdicate. Now in the eyes of many people in the world, Li Sheng has already become notorious."

"This move can indeed win the hearts of the people. If Li Sheng knew about it, he would definitely support it."

"But I don't want to!"

"Let alone the fact that Li Sheng has shown me kindness and helped me ascend the throne, avenge my son, and rule the world."

"If I were a villain who only cares about profit and forgets righteousness, I wouldn't be favored by Li Sheng and sit in my current position."

King Ming looked at the minister being dragged away, his eyes were calm, and he continued, "Pass the order and announce to the world that Li Sheng has mastered the martial arts and entered the realm of heaven and man."

"From today on, we will establish a martial arts pavilion to collect martial arts from all over the world for people to learn. We will honor Li Sheng as the founder of martial arts and pass his name down through the ages!"

"I will obey your orders!"

A group of ministers responded.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a minister cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, you are grateful and repay your kindness, which is what a wise ruler does. This is a blessing for us ministers and for the people of the world."

"Just establishing a martial arts pavilion and encouraging everyone to practice martial arts may sow the seeds of disaster."

"With a sharp blade in one's heart, one will naturally have the desire to kill. If everyone in the world practices martial arts, a hundred years from now, it may bring disaster to your Majesty's dynasty. Your Majesty, please be cautious."

This minister's words were extremely cryptic.

But all the ministers present were smart people. They all heard the hidden meaning in his words and looked at him in amazement.

There is no immortal dynasty in the world. No matter which dynasty it is, it will eventually come to an end.

If all the people practiced martial arts, and if the world was dissatisfied with the new dynasty, they would probably rebel immediately. The people can be led astray, but they cannot be made to know it.

If the King of Ming issued this order and asked everyone in the world to practice martial arts, it would be equivalent to handing a knife to everyone in the world.

This knife is too sharp and may hurt you.

Even if the king is virtuous, he can hold this knife tightly.

But his descendants may not be able to control this sharp blade.

By then, the dynasty founded by the Ming King would probably be destroyed.

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing this, King Ming laughed out loud: "You are right."

"But if war breaks out across the world, it means that the dynasty I founded has indeed reached its end."

"Since it is rotten, it should be swept away."

"I am an emperor, not for the eternal dynasty, but for the peace of the world!"

When the ministers around heard this, their hearts trembled.

They immediately knelt on the ground, their eyes filled with excitement and respect, and shouted loudly: "We are willing to create a peaceful and prosperous era for Your Majesty!"

As subjects, what they most hope for is naturally to meet a wise leader.

And now, they have found it.

Just at this time.

Li Yan stepped on the void, standing calmly in the air without relying on any strength.

He looked at the group of Ming Wang below, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he said: "Yes, I was right about them."

"Greetings, Li Sheng!"

King Ming looked at Li Yan in the sky, and quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Li Yan, his expression full of excitement.

Li Yan helped him ascend to the throne. Now that he has entered the realm of heaven and become a martial arts legend, he is also proud of it.

"Greetings, Li Sheng!"

The surrounding ministers and some guards also kowtowed.

They looked confused and shocked.

The scene before them really broke their cognition.

How could someone stand in the void out of thin air?

Is this really martial arts?
It is no exaggeration to say that he is a legendary immortal!

If most of them were not already old, they would probably also want to learn martial arts.

No, this is not practicing martial arts, it is clearly cultivating immortality!
"Greetings, Li Sheng!"

The three grand masters also followed and kowtowed to Li Yan with excited expressions.

Li Yan's stepping into the heavenly realm proved that there was a way ahead, and the three of them were the most excited.

This shows that the road ahead for martial arts is not blocked, and they are also capable of entering this realm through their own practice.

"Get up!"

Li Yan smiled slightly and waved to everyone, and they were lifted up by a gentle force.

"I am leaving now. From now on, the peace of the world will depend on you."

"The King will not let down Li Sheng's trust!"

Ming Wang said in a decisive tone.

The other ministers also vowed to pacify the world.

The three great masters also bowed and replied: "We will help King Ming as promised, please rest assured, Li Sheng."

Li Yan nodded slightly. He had no intention of staying in this world any longer.

After breaking through the realm of heaven and man, he felt that his connection with the Heavenly Dao of this world became closer, and he even had the authority to manipulate a portion of the Heavenly Dao power of this world.

And somehow, he got a message.

It was as if he could break through the boundary and ascend into another world.

He has already arranged all the trivial matters in this world.

He passed on some of the martial arts he had developed to Jiang Long.

This was considered as the convenience brought to him by borrowing Jiang Long's identity when he first came to this world.

Now that I have no regrets, I plan to return to the real world.

But before returning to the real world, he wanted to see what this so-called breaking through the boundaries and ascending to the real world was all about.

So he moved his mind and communicated with the heavenly way of this world.

In the sky, there seemed to be a colorful staircase leading to an unknown place, appearing before his eyes.

Without hesitation, he stepped onto the stairs and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Finally, the colorful steps disappeared, and Li Yan also disappeared, completely vanishing from this world.

"Did Li Sheng ascend to the upper realm?"

The three grand masters were filled with amazement, the scene now seemed like a myth.

A legendary figure from the celestial realm ascended to the upper realm right before their eyes, which made them extremely excited.

With Li Yan's ascension, King Ming issued an edict to establish martial arts pavilions throughout the world to teach martial arts to everyone regardless of their background.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

And because the news of Li Yan's ascension in the Imperial City spread, many martial arts masters came to the Imperial City to make a pilgrimage.

With the addition of martial arts halls established in various places, the trend of practicing martial arts spread throughout the world.

They revered Li Yan as the ancestor of martial arts, and the golden age of martial arts began.

……

"Is this the upper realm?"

Li Yan came to a pitch-black place.

The surroundings were dim and empty.

But the aura of heaven here is exceptionally strong.

He felt that his incarnation was beginning to gradually decompose under the erosion of the aura of heaven.

It won't take too long before this spiritual incarnation of his will becomes a part of the natural law of this world.

"This is the origin of the Heavenly Dao, not the upper realm at all!"

Li Yan understood immediately.

The so-called ascension to the upper realm does not exist at all.

The colorful staircase he stepped onto only allowed him to enter the place where the heavenly way originated.

Because the realm of heaven and man is already the limit of this martial arts world.

If he succeeds in merging with the Dao, he will be able to become an immortal in this world.

It's just that it's simply impossible to do.

No matter how weak this side of Heaven's Way is, it doesn't mean that those in the Heavenly Man Realm can be in harmony with Heaven's Way.

This is equivalent to a human true lord who, by chance, steps into the end of the spiritual road and faces the way of the real world.

It stands to reason that if one can integrate into the true world and the way of heaven, one can become a true immortal.

However, the realm of the True Lord is too low. If he rashly integrates into the Heavenly Dao, he will only become a part of the Heavenly Dao of the True Realm.

This is the problem Li Yan is facing now.

As a warrior at the celestial realm in this world, although he has the qualifications to face the way of heaven directly, his own realm is actually still far behind.

So now the body is being Taoized.

“If this incarnation is transformed, I’m afraid my spiritual thoughts will only be lost in this world.”

Li Yan raised his eyebrows.

But now that he is in the origin of the Heavenly Dao, he has the opportunity to integrate with the Heavenly Dao.

He would be unwilling to leave just like that.

"If you can be in harmony with the Heavenly Dao of this world, not only can you gain experience in harmony with the Dao, but you can also definitely get many benefits."

After thinking about it in his heart, he made up his mind.

It's just a wisp of spiritual thought. Even if it is damaged, it will not have much effect on him.

In that case, why not take a risk!
