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

Chapter 288 Mysterious Immortal
The way of the sword is the way of attack and conquest.

The human sword masters in the Taiyi Sword Realm are all extremely powerful.

In a one-on-one fight, none of the alien races would be a match for the five great immortal lords of the human race.

Even if they gathered the power of all the alien races to besiege and kill the five immortal lords.

Ultimately, there will definitely be a tenth-tier powerhouse on the alien side who will fall.

Furthermore, these different races are already divided, making it impossible for them to work together in complete harmony.

Therefore, it was during the period when the Five Great Immortal Lords were in charge of governing the world.

The other races then began to recuperate and rebuild with the humans, ceasing their mutual warfare.

After all, they came to this Heavenly Gate for the opportunities within, not to fight to the death with the human race.

But when Li Yan's name spread among the human race, the alien races became somewhat uneasy.

When they first settled in Tianmen, they fought to the death with the Tianmen people.

Many of their high-level combatants, such as those at the ninth and tenth tiers, have perished.

Therefore, the two sides were already deeply antagonistic.

Now that the human race has produced its sixth Immortal Lord, greatly increasing its strength, they are naturally restless and unable to eat or sleep.

Time flies, and a century has passed in the blink of an eye.

This is almost certainly the longest period of seclusion Li Yan has ever experienced.

But the results were quite encouraging.

"His cultivation level has reached the peak of True Immortal, and his Taiyi Sword Dao Law level has also reached the peak of the tenth rank."

Li Yan was quite satisfied with the results of this retreat.

His own world laws, after breaking through the bottleneck.

We have now reached the middle stage of the tenth tier, and are not far from the end stage of the tenth tier.

Although the level of laws governing this world is inferior to that of the laws governing swordsmanship.

However, Li Yan never gave up his intention to cultivate the laws of the world.

After all, the laws of the world are related to the power of the world, and only by possessing sufficient world power can one achieve this.

Li Yan can unleash his full potential no matter where he is located.

However, once he cultivates the laws of the world to the later stages of the tenth level, he will have exhausted the potential gained from his previous Dao Integration.

Once the original body is within the True Realm, it will be unable to further elevate the level of the world's laws.

Only when Li Yan merges with the Taiyi Sword Realm and acquires the Heavenly Dao essence of the Taiyi Sword Realm can the level of the world's laws be further improved.

"Next, it's time to break through to the Xuanxian realm, so that my title of Immortal Lord Moyuan can truly be lived up to."

Li Yan's eyes flickered slightly.

Previously, Immortal Lord Fengqi and others had already told him the secrets about breaking through to the Xuanxian realm.

Upon breaking through to the Xuanxian realm, the Heavenly Dao will unleash heavenly thunder and earthly fire to temper the cultivator's primordial spirit.

The primordial spirit, tempered by heavenly thunder and earthly fire, will transform into an immortal soul.

Once the Immortal Soul is formed, one has successfully entered the realm of the Profound Immortal.

Furthermore, the Immortal Soul can make Immortal Lords at the Profound Immortal Realm more compatible with the laws existing in the Heavenly Gate, and more easily comprehend the laws of swordsmanship.

Furthermore, the power to manipulate the laws of swordsmanship will be greatly enhanced.

During Li Yan's seclusion, every now and then, a Celestial Lord would send him a message, bringing him spiritual materials for cultivation.

At the same time, Li Yan would also take the opportunity to exchange sword techniques with these immortal lords.

Unfortunately, he also learned an important piece of information from these immortal lords.

Although the seventh realm of swordsmanship is where the sword strikes and the techniques follow, there is still a realm called "One sword gives rise to ten thousand techniques".

But this level is not something that ordinary people can achieve.

Even a Celestial Lord is only superior to a seventh-rank sword cultivator in terms of sword dao laws.

In fact, there is not much difference between the sword dao realm and the seventh-level sword cultivator.

The swordsmanship realm where one sword can generate all techniques is a level that no human powerhouse has yet reached.

After a moment's thought, Li Yan immediately began to break through his cultivation level.

For ordinary peak True Immortals, breaking through to the Profound Immortal realm is a difficult task.

Leaving aside the seemingly insurmountable bottleneck, the heavenly lightning and earthly fire triggered by the tribulation alone are not something they can easily withstand.

Although a cultivator's primordial spirit is already considered to be of the Yang element, the power of heavenly thunder and earthly fire is still immense.

If one's primordial spirit is not resilient and strong enough, it will only turn to ashes under the heavenly thunder and earthly fire, and one's spirit will perish.

As long as nothing unexpected happens, a powerful being in the True Immortal realm has no worries about lifespan and can live forever.

However, breaking through to the Xuanxian realm comes with such a crisis.

Therefore, they are not cultivators with a firm heart for seeking the Dao.

Once they reach the realm of True Immortal, they often relax completely and stop seeking the Great Dao.

Therefore, any strong person who can break through to the Xuanxian realm must have an extremely high level of mental state, fortune, and intelligence.

However, Li Yan did not rely on these to break through to the Xuanxian realm.

His own talent for cultivation alone surpasses everything else.

His own sword spirit, contained within the Mo Yuan Sword, had already grown to an unfathomable level.

He had already undergone the forging of heavenly lightning during the True Immortal Tribulation, making him extremely extraordinary.

The heavenly thunder and earthly fire of the Xuanxian Tribulation were naturally no problem for him either.

"Boom!"

As Li Yan broke through to the Xuanxian realm, heavenly lightning gathered above his cave, and earth fire surged beneath the ground.

Both of these do not harm external objects, but only burn the primordial spirit.

Li Yan sat cross-legged inside the cave, with the Mo Yuan Sword appearing in front of him.

next moment.

The heavenly thunder and earthly fire were directly absorbed by the Mo Yuan Sword from all directions.

Li Yan's sword spirit, hidden within the Mo Yuan Sword, also began to be constantly subjected to the scorching heat of heavenly thunder and earthly fire.

Thunderclouds rolled across the sky.

The three immortal lords were not far from Li Yan's cave dwelling and had been keeping an eye on Li Yan's side.

At this moment, they suddenly noticed the abnormality of Li Yan's cave.

"This is... the Tribulation of the Mystic Immortal!?"

A look of surprise appeared on Jiangling Immortal Lord's face.

He knew that Li Yan had only recently entered the True Immortal realm.

Logically speaking, even with exceptional talent, it would take tens of thousands of years to break through to the Xuanxian realm.

The five immortal lords currently in power all spent more than 100,000 years breaking through their cultivation levels.

But Li Yan has attracted the Xuanxian Tribulation in just a short hundred years, which is really hard for him to believe.

Immortal Lord Yunmeng and Immortal Lord Fengqi also noticed the abnormality on Li Yan's side.

They quickly flew to meet up and watched from afar as Li Yan underwent his tribulation.

“Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan must have a great secret, otherwise he could never have reached the Xuanxian realm so quickly.”

"I just don't know if this secret is Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan's own secret, or if it is related to the Taiyi Sword Manual."

Immortal Lord Jiangling's eyes flickered slightly as he slowly spoke.

Even if he really was the reincarnation of that ancient immortal lord, awakening his innate wisdom.

It's impossible for them to reach their current level in just a short century.

Not only Jiangling Immortal Lord noticed this, but Yunmeng Immortal Lord and Fengqi Immortal Lord also vaguely sensed it.

With solemn expressions, they said, "No matter what, Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan is the hope for the revival of our human race, so it is normal for him to have secrets."

"As long as he can lead us to drive the alien race out of the Heavenly Gate, that's enough!"

All three knew very well that Li Yan harbored a significant secret. But right now, Li Yan was their Tianmen human race's greatest hope.

Moreover, given Li Yan's current strength, even if he possesses great secrets, they are not capable of coveting him.

If you were to break ties with Li Yan because of the secret he possesses, that would be the most unwise choice.

Wealth can be tempting, but if someone possesses wealth and has sufficient power, they can naturally protect their wealth.

Li Yan is in this situation now.

The Mysterious Immortal Tribulation lasted for three months.

As the tribulation clouds in the sky dispersed and the underground fire returned to the earth, Li Yan absorbed the Mo Yuan Sword into his body.

At the same time, the sword spirit within his Mo Yuan Sword underwent a qualitative change after three months of tempering, transforming into an immortal soul.

He felt that he was more in sync with the laws of Taiyi Sword Dao.

And at the moment of his breakthrough, it seemed as if a voice was calling his name from the depths of his being.

"Is it an illusion?"

Li Yan raised an eyebrow, not believing that his perception could produce such an illusion.

"Forget it, the most important thing for me right now is to obtain the remaining two stone tablets of the Taiyi Sword Manual and raise the sword dao law to the twelfth level."

Li Yan's heart stirred, and he turned to look at the horizon.

"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan on breaking through the realm. Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan's rapid breakthrough to the Xuanxian realm is truly a testament to your talent, which makes us all feel ashamed."

Immortal Lord Jiangling spoke first, smiling broadly as he addressed Li Yan.

The other two immortal lords also offered their congratulations.

Li Yan cupped his hands in thanks to the three of them and said, "It was just a stroke of luck. I must thank you three fellow Daoists for providing me with a place to cultivate."

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for thanks. As a Celestial Lord of my human race, these are what you deserve."

Phoenix Perch Immortal Lord smiled faintly, then asked, "Now that you have broken through to the Selected Profound Immortal realm, what are your plans?"

Li Yan calmly said, "Naturally, we should attack the Spirit Clan and take back those two stone tablets."

"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Fengqi has been able to find out where those two stone tablets are now?"

Phoenix Perch Immortal Lord nodded: "My subordinate True Immortal has already found out that the two stone tablets were taken back to the Spirit Clan by the Tenth-Order Great Emperor Linghuang and placed on Spirit Extreme Mountain."

"However, this Spirit Extreme Mountain is located in the core of the Spirit Clan, and there are many ninth-level and even tenth-level Great Emperors of the Spirit Clan nearby."

“If anything happens, the great emperors of the Spirit Clan will arrive immediately.”

"However, some of the Spirit Race's prodigies can enter Spirit Extreme Mountain to study these two stone tablets."

"Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan can conceal his aura, pretend to be a prodigy of the Spirit Clan, go to Lingji Mountain to study the stone tablet, and then quickly return to the Eastern Region."

"In this way, Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan can obtain the subsequent techniques of the Taiyi Sword Manual."

Phoenix Perch Immortal Lord had already made all the arrangements.

In his view, this was the most appropriate method.

If everything goes smoothly and doesn't attract any attention, Li Yan will be able to escape from the Spirit Clan unscathed.

Even if something unexpected happens along the way, they can launch a strong attack on the Spirit Clan to attract the attention of the powerful ones.

At that time, Li Yan will also be able to obtain the Taiyi Sword Manual techniques recorded on the two subsequent stone tablets.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Fengqi, but there's no need for such trouble."

Li Yan smiled faintly at the three of them.

"What do you mean by this, Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan? Do you have a better solution?"

Phoenix Perch Immortal Lord's eyes showed surprise; he really couldn't think of any other way.

The other two immortal lords also looked at Li Yan with curiosity.

"That's not the case. Fellow Daoist Fengqi's plan is indeed very appropriate."

"With my current strength, I can simply attack the Spirit Clan and take the stone tablet from Spirit Extreme Mountain."

"There's absolutely no need to put in any more effort."

At this moment, Li Yan was extremely confident in his own strength.

Why did he dedicate himself to arduous cultivation for a hundred years?
Could it be that they were secretly trying to steal the subsequent cultivation techniques from the Spirit Clan?
Naturally not.

His aim was to directly attack the Spirit Clan and drive them out of the Heavenly Gate.

Currently, his Taiyi Sword Dao Law has reached the peak of the tenth level.

Furthermore, the sword law he cultivated was incomparable to any other sword law.

Even if an eleventh-level Great Emperor were to be born within the Spirit Race, Li Yan would not be afraid at all, and would even be confident in killing him.

"What!?"

The three immortal lords looked astonished.

"Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan, do not underestimate the Great Emperors of the Spirit Clan."

"Even if you have now reached the peak of the tenth level of the Law, if you force your way in, you may not be able to come out unscathed."

Jiangling Immortal Lord's expression was solemn.

They had all fought against powerful emperors among the Spirit Race.

Although they can win even when fighting alone.

Among the Great Emperors of the Spirit Race, there are as many as ten Tenth-Order Great Emperors, and there are also Great Emperors at the peak of the Tenth Order.

If we force our way into the Spirit Clan, they will surely fight with all their might.

Even if Li Yan manages to kill several Great Emperors of the Spirit Clan, he will still likely perish at the hands of the Spirit Clan in the end.

Therefore, they naturally wouldn't let Li Yan take any risks.

But the next moment.

An indescribable aura of sword principles suddenly rose from Li Yan's body.

The three immortal lords were startled, then realized that Li Yan was demonstrating his strength to them.

They then revealed their own aura of law, wanting to confront Li Yan.

But soon, a look of horror appeared on the faces of all three of them.

Because the aura of law emanating from them was directly subdued by the aura of law revealed by Li Yan.

The sword principles that the three of them comprehended were not ordinary sword principles.

But under the aura of law that Li Yan was displaying, it couldn't even hold out for a moment.

This means that Li Yan's understanding of the sword dao laws is extremely high. Even if his laws are at the same level as theirs, he can easily crush their laws.

Although Li Yan is at the peak of the tenth rank, the strength he has shown is probably no less than that of some ordinary laws that have entered the eleventh rank.

"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan already possesses eleventh-tier combat power?"

Immortal Lord Yunmeng couldn't help but ask, his eyes filled with shock.

If that's true, wouldn't that mean Li Yan is now invincible in Tianmen?

There are currently no experts at the eleventh level within the Heavenly Gate!
Li Yan smiled slightly, but did not answer directly: "Whether it is or not, we will only know after we fight. However, among the Spirit Clan, there should be no one who can stop me."

Phoenix Perch Immortal Lord solemnly cupped his hands and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan is so confident, then we will not stop him."

"I will go with Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan and meet him outside."

"If anything unexpected happens, I can also share the burden with Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan."

"Then thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Fengqi."

Li Yan nodded. With Phoenix Perch Immortal Lord accompanying him, he could be the perfect guide.

Moreover, the location of Lingji Mountain still needs to be told by Immortal Lord Fengqi.

The group quickly reached an agreement.

But at that moment, they saw a red light shooting into the sky in the distance.

The entire sky, spanning millions of miles, was dyed red by this beam of light, even the pure white clouds were dyed red.

The expressions on the faces of the three immortal lords changed instantly upon seeing the red light.

"Oh no! Immortal Lord Chiyun is in trouble!"
