The Fate of Eternal Life

Chapter 29 Ancient Tianzun Temple

Inside the palace, Ning Qingyi was playing with the ancient lapis lazuli pagoda in his hand.

This quasi-imperial artifact, mixed with feathered sapphire, was isolated under the deep earth where no one could see. Over the eons, it lost the offerings of its worshippers and survived only on the essence of the earth. It was inevitably worn away by the power of time, fell from the quasi-imperial artifact, and the deity was also incomplete.

Ning Qingyi sighed, "What a pity."

This is a quasi-imperial weapon! Unlike the Lihuo Divine Furnace, this is a quasi-imperial weapon that possesses the power of a god!

Since his cultivation, he had relied on the intact great sacred artifact Luofu Ding to cross countless desperate places and overcome countless crises. If the Qingjin Pagoda was intact, he would even dare to venture into the major life-forbidden zones!
"But if we can get the Wang family's stone archway and take out that good fortune, I think it will be enough to repair it."

Ning Qingyi was lost in thought. The Holy City of the Northern Territory was a land of extraordinary creation. Immortal Elixir Seeds, the Nine Divine Golds, the Ancient Medicine King… so many dream-like treasures, enveloped in divine energy, lay quietly within the stone archways of the major factions. Among them, within the stone archway of the Beiyuan Wang family, lurked a peerless military spirit.

That is the pure deity left by the ancient emperor to restore the emperor. If people knew about it, it would be enough to cause a great turmoil!

Ning Qingyi sighed, "What a pity! Because of the previous exploitation of all the fortunes, there are already rumors in the Holy City that Yuan Tianshi has returned. All the major holy places have increased their manpower, fearing that they will be emptied by Yuan Tianshi."

Fortunately, he acted quickly enough and almost all opportunities were taken. However, I don’t know if Ye Fan will have the chance to inherit Master Yuan Tianshi in this life. If he does, it will be difficult for Qie Shi to escape so easily.

Ning Qing's expression turned strange when he thought of this. However, he soon stopped caring about it and began to ponder the Qingjin Pagoda carefully.

In order to prevent the noise from being too loud, he took out the Luofu Ding and brought the Qingjin Pagoda into the world inside the Ding.

Ning Qingyi released the restrictions, and the Lapis Lazuli Pagoda returned to its hundred-meter size. Its feather patterns exuded an indescribable mysterious aura. He followed the pagoda's passage back to the quiet room, looked at the bronze coffin placed in the center, and began to seriously deduce.

The material used for this bronze coffin is also extraordinary. It is made of Chaos Stone and Feathered Lapis Lazuli. Based on this, Ning Qingyi can infer that the main body of the Lapis Lazuli Pagoda is also mixed with Chaos Stone.

A strange look appeared in his eyes as he saw that the patterns on the bronze coffin were connected to those in the quiet room, confirming a fact.

The entire Lapis Lazuli Pagoda was built to house this bronze coffin. Combined with the vision before the Lapis Lazuli Pagoda was taken out, it can be inferred that in ancient times, or even in the more ancient mythological era, many races came to worship and chanted scriptures for the person buried in this bronze coffin, hoping for his resurrection or to ascend to heaven.

However, it is obvious that the owner of the bronze coffin did not resurrect, because the coffin has never been opened again.

A quasi-imperial weapon was used just to place a coffin. What a luxury.

Ning Qing's eyes flashed with the Fuxi Bagua. With the blessing of the Minor Fate Technique, his spiritual perception became extremely sharp at this moment. He placed his hands on the coffin lid, and a jade-like golden sound emanated from his body. With tremendous force, the coffin lid was slowly lifted.

A peerless aura was blooming, causing Ning Qingyi to feel a stinging pain all over his body, which surprised him greatly.

You must know that his current physical body is not inferior to the holy body, and the aura can make him feel pain. The person buried inside must be an unparalleled figure!
Ning Qingyi activated his Unbeatable Golden Body, and the golden jade aura enveloped his body, allowing him to withstand the damage caused by the aura. As the bronze coffin slowly opened, the aura became more and more intense, and a warning flashed through his mind, and his precious body was about to be shattered.

The bronze coffin was finally opened, and inside was seen a human figure, surrounded by chaotic energy and emitting rays of light.

"Is this... quasi-imperial might? No, it's more than a ray of imperial might. How could it be so weak?!"

Ning Qingyi trembled from the bottom of his heart. Although he had never really come into contact with the aura of the emperor since he started practicing Taoism, he had felt the quasi-emperor's power in Ge Hong's legacy. These were two completely different feelings.

"Could it be that an emperor is buried here?"

Ning Qingyi was shocked. Just as he was about to see more clearly, the human figure in the bronze coffin suddenly collapsed, entangled with the chaotic air, and flowed with mysterious energy, rushing into Ning Qingyi's sea of consciousness.

The little soul was caught off guard, and the chaotic energy directly merged into his forehead, and infinite information burst out from it.

"This is……"

Ning Qingyi was completely immersed in it, gradually comprehending the information left in it. It took him a long time to open his eyes, and then his face was full of complexity.

This ancient coffin buried a Celestial Lord from the mythical era! And he had quite a history: it was this Ancient Celestial Lord who had been severely injured by the Chaos Body Wang Bo, forcing him to prematurely begin his second life.

Named Wuliang, he left behind the secret of the word Lin during his second life and was one of the Nine Heavenly Lords of the mythological era!

In the mythical era of the past, Wuliang Tianzun swept his enemies, attained the pinnacle of the Dao, and began his lifelong destiny as a peak emperor. It was also during that era that Wang Bo, the innate chaotic body, was born and ascended to the ninth level of the Quasi-Emperor realm at an astonishing rate.

At that moment, the Heavenly Heart Seal, which had long been taken off by Wuliang Tianzun, actually resonated with the Chaos Body, which surprised Wuliang Tianzun greatly. In the end, in order to spy on the secrets of the Chaos Body, the two fought a fierce battle at the edge of the universe, and finally the Chaos Body Wang Bo was killed by him.

In order to kill Wang Bo, Wuliang Tianzun almost ended his life as the peak emperor in his first life ahead of time and took the elixir of immortality to start his second life. The price he paid was not small.

However, studying the secrets of the chaotic body allowed Wuliang Tianzun to sublimate his own Dao fruit to become a secret. Today, millions of years later, he has become one of the nine Tianzuns in the mysterious mythological era. It can be said that blessing and disaster are interdependent.

The Nine Secrets are unparalleled in the world, and each word of the secret possesses unparalleled power.

The secret of "Bing" is the best secret method in the world for controlling and training soldiers, the secret of "Zu" is the ultimate answer to the art of formation, the secret of "Dou" can evolve all the secret techniques of attack, the secret of "Xing" wants to transcend time... The secret of "Lin" is naturally mysterious as well.

As the final result of studying the chaotic body, the Lin character secret can enable practitioners to maintain a state in which all the laws of heaven and earth resonate in unison!
As long as you continue to practice the secret of Lin characters, your understanding of the laws of heaven and earth will become deeper and deeper. You will be able to be far ahead of others on the path of cultivation, turning decay into magic, which is truly incredible.

Even in the later years of the Second Emperor, Wuliang Tianzun observed the innate Dao fetus, combined with the profoundness of the Lin character secret, regarded it as the key to cultivating into a chaotic body, and buried his own body there.

He asked his disciples to bury him in the Big Dipper, cast a coffin with Yuhua Lapis Lazuli and Chaos Stone, and asked all races to chant scriptures for him, hoping that he could transform into a chaotic body and live out his third life.

Unfortunately, Wuliang Tianzun failed, and his imperial body turned into chaotic energy and eventually disappeared.

Ning Qingyi silently comprehended the Dao diagram engraved on the forehead of the little soul figurine, chewing on the last Dao fruit left by Wuliang Tianzun, and soon he mastered the secret of this word.

He activated the Lin character secret, and at that moment he felt that his whole body was sublimated. Even though he was isolated by the Qingjin Pagoda and the Luofu Cauldron, he could clearly feel the location of the myriad ways of heaven and earth. Ning Qingyi even felt that as long as he wanted, he could become one with the myriad ways!

This experience is so special. Even if one is refined by the Gate of Eternal Life and becomes a "Spirit of Instrument", born with a shortcut to the Tao, and dares to speak and resonate with all the Taos, there is still something missing. Watching the myriad Taos of heaven and earth is like watching flowers in the fog.

Now that I have been blessed with the secret of Lin Zi, it is like breaking through the window paper, and all the laws of heaven and earth are clearly visible. This is simply terrifying!

Ning Qingyi's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of something. He sat down cross-legged, and his soul meditated on the door of eternal life. He once again saw the flower behind this great portal.

It is the prototype of the world!

This flower swayed in the void, rooted in the primordial chaos, its beauty unbelievable. Ning Qingyi silently observed it for a moment, taking in the supreme grace of this embryonic form of the world as it swayed, then once again infused the Lin character secret, igniting the Minor Fate Technique.

"The power of destiny penetrates the void, wanders between the two realms, and merges into the embryonic form of the Tao!"

The majestic divine power burned, and at this moment Ning Qingyi's momentum reached its peak. He finally put a little divine power in with great difficulty, and then rushed into the prototype of the world.

boom!
The flowers bloomed.

Ning Qingyi found it difficult to describe his current state. He felt like he had turned into a curled up body, and every time he swayed, he was stretching his body. Those were the sides of the world, the continents, and the ancient stars of life.

But the oppression of chaos was too heavy, and the huge pressure of the void pressed her back into the shape of a bud.

Bloom!

Just like a baby about to be born and a bird about to hatch, Ning Qingyi now has only this thought in his mind. This is the only wish of the prototype of the world and the expectation of the door to eternal life.

In this empty land, a magnificent world blossomed from nothing!
Ning Qingyi realized this idea in his heart, and in the next birth and death, the divine consciousness projected onto the prototype of the world was completely consumed, and he was forced to retreat.

"As expected, the Gate of Eternal Life is not yet completely complete."

Although it has turned from virtual to real, the Gate of Immortality has not yet recovered to its state of dominating for three thousand epochs, destroying everything, suppressing everything, and transcending everything. The reason is that its size is too small.

You must know that after the door to eternal life is opened, there are infinite worlds inside, and each world can give birth to incredible masters, incredible treasures, and incredible creations.

Therefore, many of the immortal kings are so eager to obtain the door to immortality.

Now, in the void of the Gate of Eternal Life, there is only a prototype of a world. Although it can still crush the human realm, it is far from enough.

If the entire world sea is swallowed up, or even above the heavens, maybe it will be possible to barely recover.

Ning Qingyi reaffirmed his thoughts, came out of this state, and then lay down in the bronze coffin.

Having lost the last remaining chaotic energy of Wuliang Tianzun, this bronze coffin, although extraordinary in nature, will no longer hurt people on its own.

Ning Qingyi closed the coffin lid and lay in the bronze coffin. He saw a map gradually light up in the coffin. It showed five areas with five spots of light flashing in it.

"Is this the Big Dipper Geomancy Map left behind by Wuliang Tianzun? Unfortunately, thousands of years have passed, and this planet, under the influence of so many emperor-level figures, is no longer what it once was."

Endless years have passed, and the ancient star of Beidou has changed a lot. Not to mention the seven forbidden areas of life, even the Western Desert has been completely occupied by Buddhism. The arrival of many emperor-level figures and immortal elixirs has also made this ancient star more extraordinary.

If the mountain is not high, it will be famous if there are immortals; if the water is not deep, if there is a dragon, it will be spiritual.

The Chaos Body is extraordinary in itself, and the continent created from its shell has gathered so many peerless figures and fantastic treasures. Naturally, it gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and is a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery.

Despite this, there is one place in the Beidou Fengshui Map that will not change, and that is the North Pole Fairy Cave.

This immortal cave is a remnant of the path to immortality on the ancient star of Beidou. Despite the passage of time, its location remains unchanged. It's likely that it was this image that inspired the mysterious old woman in the original novel to pursue the Northern Lights.

Ning Qingyi wrote down the Beidou Fengshui map. Although the map was no longer accurate, and even the places created by heaven and earth had already moved naturally, there were still a few places that remained unchanged occasionally, and maybe he could get one or two opportunities.

He pushed the coffin out with satisfaction, took the Qingjin Pagoda and Luofu Ding back to the Wheel Sea, and then found Jiang Tingting.

Ning Qingyi asked, "Tingting, how is your reading of the Taiyin Sutra?"

Jiang Tingting's face looked a little bitter. She was only five or six years old. Although Ning Qingyi taught her some skills, she could only learn a little bit every day. Now she had barely started practicing the Ten Thousand Wheels Sea Scroll and had not yet started practicing.

The little girl said with some self-abasement, "I'm sorry, Master. There are still many things I don't understand."

Ning Qing patted her head and said, "You don't have to look like that. You are much more talented than my former teacher."

Jiang Tingting was a little skeptical and thought that her master was comforting her.

"Alright, I, the master, will also need to cultivate in seclusion for a while, so I'll take this opportunity to lay a solid foundation for you." Ning Qingyi sighed as he spoke, "Unfortunately, I've used up all the Nine Wonderful Immortal Sacred Fruits. This is the best foundation-building comprehension, and it might even help you understand the changes of the Nine Life and Nine Deaths in the Wheel Sea."

Although he gained a lot in the ancient forbidden land, he also paid a lot of price. The Nine Wonderful Immortal Holy Fruits were eaten up completely. Originally, he wanted to keep one or two to make friends with some peerless figures who were about to die, such as Gai Jiuyou from Zhongzhou, the mysterious old woman.

Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. He obtained the earth-shaking fortune of the Gate of Eternal Life, but lost the opportunity to find an older person to be his protector in advance.

Seeing that Ning Qingyi seemed a little unhappy, Jiang Tingting quickly said, "It's okay, Master. Tingting can do without the holy fruit."

Ning Qing smiled and said, "Master just doesn't have the Holy Fruit, but I can still get the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill. Let's use this."

The little girl had no idea what the Nine Wonderful Immortal Fruits and the Nine-Turn Golden Pills were, but she became happy when she saw her master's mood improve.

Soon, another month passed. Under Ning Qingyi's guidance, Jiang Tingting opened up the Sea of Bitterness and became a cultivator in the Wheel Sea Realm.

The extraordinary nature of the Taiyin body was also revealed. Not only was the speed of cultivation extremely fast, but the divine power also contained the ultimate power of Taiyin, and possessed astonishing lethality. After opening up the divine spring and possessing the power to fly in the air, Jiang Tingting would probably be able to claim that she dared to defeat all the cultivators in the Five Realms of the Wheel Sea Secret Realm!

This made Ning Qingyi, who had briefly been a mortal and possessed the Gate of Immortality, sigh in admiration. This was indeed the world of Shrouding the Sky, where physical fitness was truly crucial!

Then, he finally waited for the person he wanted to see.

Thank you all for your recommendation and monthly votes! I also thank Brother Dong for not writing all the Nine Secrets and Nine Great Celestial Lords, giving my cat room to make up stories, hahahaha
