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

Chapter 218 Secret Passage
"As expected of the Ninth Prince, I am defeated."

Lu Liang looked pale.

The figure slowly fell from mid-air.

He swung the sword with all his strength.

But he didn't expect that Li Yan could actually dodge it.

Moreover, the fluctuations of spiritual energy exerted did not exceed the scope of the sixth grade.

This was discovered not only by him, but also by all the high-level experts present.

Taoist Qingyun was amazed and thought to himself, "If I'm not mistaken, the Ninth Prince must have understood this spatial magic when the aftermath of the first-grade magic swept to the Southern Region."

"Only then will the Ninth Prince have the opportunity to comprehend space magic."

"I never thought that this horrific disaster for others would actually become an opportunity for the Ninth Prince."

Taoist Qingyun is well aware of the horror of space magic, which is fundamentally different from ordinary teleportation techniques.

Ordinary teleportation techniques can only touch the surface of space at most.

However, Li Yan's comprehension of space magic has already reached the advanced level, otherwise he would not have been able to dodge Lu Liang's sword of time that contained the true meaning of time.

His attainments in space magic were beyond even his reach.

This is a gap in realm on another level, and Taoist Qingyun can only feel inferior to him.

It is difficult to get started with this space magic. Even if Li Yan makes this space magic public, I am afraid no one will be able to master it.

In comparison, Taoist Qingyun was more concerned about the defensive technique that Li Yan initially performed, and the technique that he later performed to condense the spiritual energy.

These two spells represent extraordinary significance to sorcerers.

If Li Yan is willing to pass it on, it will definitely become a guiding light for the warlock.

Become an existence close to Taiqingzi, the founder of Taiqing Palace, the founder of the sorcerer.

The eyes of some other high-level strong men were also full of surprise.

Before coming here, they just wanted to join in the fun.

I don't want to miss this scene of the greatest battle between two geniuses in hundreds of years.

But when they witnessed the competition with their own eyes, they were all glad in their hearts that they did not miss it.

Although this competition was only between two young geniuses, it was in no way inferior to the fight between high-level masters.

Even better to some extent.

In these two people, they witnessed the peak collision of the two paths of martial arts and sorcery.

Some of the things shown in it even made them feel very benefited.

Just when all the high-level strong men were amazed by this great battle.

Among them, a middle-aged man wearing a golden robe, with bright eyes and a majestic demeanor suddenly appeared.

When this person appeared, all the high-level strong men were shocked.

"Quyang Wusheng, you are here to watch the battle?"

When the leader of Wuzong saw this person, he immediately bowed to him respectfully.

Other high-level warriors followed closely behind and slowly bowed towards Qu Yang.

The high-ranking warriors looked at Qu Yang with admiration in their eyes.

Because this Quyang Martial Saint is a peerless Martial Saint of the second rank.

His martial arts realm is close to the pinnacle of martial arts.

He had already gathered the divine will, forged a golden body, advanced to the second level of martial arts, and achieved the state of immortality.

The state of immortality, as the name suggests, refers to the immortality of the physical body.

The vitality of the body is indelible, and the regeneration of broken limbs is a piece of cake. Even if only a trace of flesh and blood is left, there is still a chance of recovery.

The body is immortal, the spirit is indestructible.

At this level, even a strong man of the first level would find it difficult to completely wipe it out.

Moreover, Quyang Martial Saint is a peerless Martial Saint who is unique in the territory of Daxia.

There is no force behind him, he is a true hermit.

It is also the target of a group of high-level warriors.

But no one expected that this battle among the younger generation on the top of Mount Qishan would actually lead to the appearance of this peerless martial saint.

Qu Yang first glanced at Lu Liang, and then at Li Yan.

Lu Liang looked at this peerless martial saint and was shocked.

He recognized Qu Yang, who had been a semi-teacher to him in his previous life and who had taught him a peerless martial art.

But later he also perished in the final catastrophe.

Li Yan looked at Qu Yang calmly.

Although Qu Yang is a second-grade martial saint, his aura is extremely strong.

But in their eyes, it’s actually nothing.

His strength has already reached the peak of this world, and Qu Yang, being a second-grade rank, is not enough to attract his attention.

Moreover, he had already discovered that Qu Yang was only present as his divine will and had no ill intentions, so he ignored him.

The martial arts divine will looks like the sorcerer's Taoist Yangshen, but in fact it is fundamentally different from the sorcerer's Taoist Yuanshen.

For a warrior, the physical body is the foundation, and the divine will is equivalent to a warrior's martial arts idea.

Even if it is destroyed, there is always a chance to rebuild it.

However, the sorcerer's Taoist spirit is different. It is the foundation of the sorcerer's life.

Even if the physical body is destroyed, one can still be reborn.

Once the Taotai Yuanshen is gone, it means true death.

Qu Yang did not notice anything unusual about Lu Liang. To him, Lu Liang was just a genius in martial arts.

So it is normal that he naturally has a good impression of Lu Liang.

As for Li Yan...

For some reason, he always felt that it was a little elusive.

Although from his divine perspective, Li Yan was only a sixth-rank sorcerer, he gave him an absurd sense of mystery.

This feeling comes from the warrior's intuition. If he didn't have a keen sense, he might even think it was an illusion.

He took a deep look at Li Yan, then slowly spoke to everyone, "The defeat of Luliang was not due to his own lack of talent."

"On the contrary, his talent is rare in a thousand years. He is the undisputed martial arts genius who ranks first since the creation of martial arts."

"At the same time, it's not like martial arts are inferior to sorcery."

"Martial arts is the nemesis of sorcerers. This is a truth known to everyone."

"But this Great Xia Ninth Prince is too evil!"

"He has made up for the shortcomings of the warlock with his own strength."

"Such a genius was born into the royal family of Daxia. This is truly a blessing for the royal family of Daxia."

"If he grows up, it won't be difficult for him to become a first-class sorcerer in the future."

As soon as Qu Yang made these remarks, an uproar immediately broke out in Qishan.

"Even Quyang Wusheng thinks so highly of Lu Liang and the Ninth Prince!"

Everyone looked excited and talked a lot.

"What Quyang Wusheng said is correct. Looking at the entire history of martial arts, Lu Liang's talent is rare."

"But the Ninth Prince's talent is far superior. He is a genius at the level of a demon!"

"It's not unfair that Luliang lost to him."

"These two are destined to become the new generation leaders in sorcery and martial arts." As a second-grade strong man, Qu Yang Wu Sheng's words are naturally authoritative enough.

And even if he didn't speak, everyone could see Lu Liang's talent.

Although we lost this battle, we still have honor!

"As one advances in the martial arts path, he will become more powerful. When Lu Liang reaches the upper third rank, he may be able to compete with the Ninth Prince."

The leader of Wuzong spoke, and he flashed to Lu Liang's side and slowly said: "I am the leader of Wuzong. Lu Liang, you are talented. If you join my Wuzong, you will definitely have a greater future. Are you willing to join my Wuzong?"

Other powerful people from the top sects of Daxia also gathered around Lu Liang, wanting to invite Lu Liang to join their sect.

A high-ranking expert from the Monster Hunting Guards also arrived near Lu Liang. He shouted to the experts around him, "Lu Liang is the son of Marquis Qi Yang, and a member of our Great Xia Dynasty. He has been trained by our Great Xia Dynasty, so there is no need for the elders to care about him."

The powerful men from several surrounding sects looked at the warriors of the Demon Catching Guards with unfriendly expressions.

"We are also a sect of the Great Xia Dynasty. If Lu Liang joins us, he will not leave Great Xia. What's wrong with that?"

An elder from Zixiao Sect shouted at the high-ranking warriors from the Monster Hunting Guards: "Qi Yuchun, when you were at the eighth rank, you stayed in Zixiao Sect for a while and learned our martial arts. So, Zixiao Sect is half your sect. Are you going to attack me today?"

Qi Yuchun's face changed when he heard this, although there were several high-ranking warriors from the royal family beside him.

But even if they were all added together, how could they possibly be a match for so many powerful people from the sects?

Moreover, they cannot really take action against these people, otherwise if their relationship with them deteriorates, they will not be able to afford the consequences.

However, the Daxia royal family would not be able to accept it if they allowed Lu Liang to be recruited by people from these sects.

Although as the powerful people from these sects said, their sects are also Daxia sects.

Even if Lu Liang joins these sects, he can still work for Daxia in the future.

It’s just that things have different priorities, and people have different closeness and distance.

If Lu Liang joins the sect, he will be able to work in Daxia in the future.

What if he encounters a conflict with the sect he joined, which side will his attitude lean towards?

The results are obvious.

Therefore, the best way is to let Lu Liang stay in Daxia and be nurtured and grown by Daxia.

Only in this way can we cultivate a top-level expert who is completely loyal to Daxia.

Qi Yuchun raised his eyes and looked at Taoist Qingyun in the distance, wanting to ask Taoist Qingyun for help.

But Taoist Qingyun just watched coldly and remained silent.

Although he was the deputy head of the Stargazing Pavilion, he was born in the Taiqing Palace and was independent of the Daxia royal family. He only obeyed orders and not announcements.

The only person he cared about was the Ninth Prince.

As for Lu Liang, he is indeed a rare martial arts genius.

But he was a sorcerer and was not impressed by this.

Even if Lu Liangzhen was recruited by these martial arts sects, it had nothing to do with him.

Just when various martial arts sects were showing off their skills in order to compete for Lu Liang.

An old and frail sorcerer in purple appeared in mid-air and flew to a place not far from Li Yan.

When Taoist Qingyun saw this person, his expression brightened and his eyes were full of surprise.

"Why is this person here?"

Taoist Qingyun's eyes were solemn. He quickly sent a message via telepathy to the Stargazing Pavilion.

In just a blink of an eye, a divine thought descended from afar and stood side by side with the purple-robed sorcerer, revealing an old man in white with white hair and a youthful face. He was none other than Tai Xuanzi, the contemporary national master of Daxia.

Tai Xuanzi said calmly, "I wonder what you are looking for, Ninth Prince?"

The purple-robed sorcerer slowly spoke, "The Ninth Prince is a genius sorcerer. Our Dayan Sect would like to pass on our secret teachings to the Ninth Prince and establish a good relationship with him."

He waved his sleeves, and a golden jade book flew directly into Li Yan's hands.

Li Yan's expression remained unchanged. He took it directly and nodded gently, saying, "Thank you."

The purple-robed sorcerer nodded slightly, and his figure suddenly disappeared in mid-air.

"Oh?"

Tai Xuanzi looked at the disappearing figure of the purple-robed sorcerer with a surprised expression.

The identity of the purple-robed sorcerer is not simple. He is a third-grade sorcerer in the Dayan Sect and a figure of the ancestor level.

The Dayan Sect is a sect of sorcerers that can be compared with the Taiqing Palace.

Although no first-rank strongman has been born, like Taiqing Palace, there are second-rank sorcerers in the world who roam freely.

Moreover, the sorcerer heritage of the sect is equally exquisite, and can be regarded as the second largest source of sorcerers.

Among them, the inherited technique of deducing the secrets of heaven is the supreme method for sorcerers.

The only thing that can be called a secret by the Purple-robed Sorcerer is the Dayan Sect's technique of deducing the mysteries of heaven.

Taixuanzi's technique of deduction was learned from the Dayan Sect.

But he only learned the basics, and he had been trying hard to obtain the real secrets of Dayan Sect.

I didn't expect that Dayanmen would be willing to hand it over to the Ninth Prince today.

You have to know that the Ninth Prince’s identity is completely different from Lu Liang’s.

The heir to the Great Xia royal family is destined to be loyal to the Great Xia royal family itself even if he joins other sects.

Moreover, Taiqing Palace was on good terms with the Daxia royal family, and all of the Ninth Prince’s magic skills came from Taiqing Palace.

Although he is not from Taiqing Palace, he has a very close relationship with Taiqing Palace.

Taiqing Palace itself is a top sect in the field of sorcery, and there are not many that can rival it.

Therefore, those warlock sects that know that they lack the foundation will not bring disgrace upon themselves by recruiting the Ninth Prince.

How could a sorcerer sect that believed itself to be comparable to the Taiqing Palace be willing to have its heritage taken away by the Daxia royal family?

But unexpectedly, Dayan Sect did not play by the rules.

He just offered the inheritance without even saying anything about recruiting the Ninth Prince into the Dayan Sect.

"Could it be that the Dayan Sect has already deduced that the Ninth Prince has the potential to achieve the first rank, so they want to establish a good relationship with him?"

Taixuanzi pondered for a moment.

But after all, it is a good thing that the Ninth Prince has obtained the secret teachings of Dayan Sect.

He glanced around and saw a group of sect warriors who had temporarily stopped arguing because of the appearance of the purple-robed sorcerer and him.

Didn't say much.

Like Taoist Qingyun, he doesn't care whether Lu Liang stays or goes.

Seeing that Li Yan was not in danger, he just like the purple-robed sorcerer, withdrew his mind and suddenly disappeared from the spot.

As soon as Taixuanzi left, those martial arts sects continued to fight for Luliang.

However, facing the competition from a group of powerful men, Lu Liang remained calm.

He has memories of his past life experiences and is not short of martial arts secrets.

If possible, he would like to become a disciple of Quyang Martial Saint.

But Quyang Martial Saint had already left, and now he was surrounded by such high-level warriors, so he could only stand there.

Fortunately, thanks to the existence of the Martial Arts Pearl, he has now recovered some strength, so he doesn't have to embarrass himself in front of so many high-level warriors.

Lu Liang looked towards the Ninth Prince, and his fighting spirit rose again in his heart: "Although I lost this battle, I also successfully created the Sword of Time."

"When my Sword of Time reaches perfection, there will definitely be a chance of victory!"

He did not become discouraged by a temporary failure.

Having gone through a lot of hardships in his previous life, he certainly wouldn't think that a momentary victory or defeat could determine his future.

What's more, after this battle, his strength has greatly increased.

In his opinion, this result was already very satisfactory.
