My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 192 The name "White Thief" originated with Zhi Xuan

What kind of place is Xianji Cave?
Nourished by 98% of the resources of the Immortal Path, this place can be said to be the ultimate realm of the Mysterious Heaven.

In this Zhixuan Heaven, there is no better place than the Immortal Extreme Cave.

The term "Immortal Supreme" originates from this.

Furthermore, condensing those nine layers of heaven was, in the end, merely a matter of lifting a finger for a near-Dao Heavenly Venerable; it didn't require much effort at all.

But now, this is a direct attempt to empty their coffers!

How could the group of near-Dao Celestial Venerables of Zhixuan Heaven, who had originally been watching the show, tolerate this? You must know that in order to bring about the birth of this Immortal Cave, apart from the three Immortal Emperors who angered the heavens, all the near-Dao Celestial Venerables who came from Zhixuan Heaven or came to Zhixuan Heaven later had made great efforts.

Otherwise, how could the Immortal Cave occupy 98% of the resources of the Immortal Path?
Thus, the plan to help Bai Chijing quickly complete the Heavenly Scheme so that he could directly trigger the rule of "too much of a good thing" was delayed.

Because no Celestial Venerable of the Near Dao dared to make such a request.

Of course, I don't want to bring it up.

At this moment, seeing that there was still no movement in the Immortal Cave, Bai Chijing was somewhat expecting it, but for no reason, a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes.

Because in that very instant when he pretended to be acting on the will of Heaven, he clearly sensed the will of the heavens—the Immortal Cave must fall! So that the Dao may be returned to all living beings!
In the past, because only 0.2% of the Immortal Path remained and was scattered throughout Azure Dragon Continent, only Azure Dragon Continent could give birth to immortals. Although this 0.2% is now evenly distributed across the four continents, the total amount is still very small. Therefore, it may take about 100,000 years for each of the four continents to give birth to an immortal under natural conditions.

Unless one enters the Immortal Cave and obtains immortal power that does not belong to these four continents, it is possible to become an immortal in a short period of time, or for multiple immortals to appear within 100,000 years.

In the past, although Qinglong Continent did not require 100,000 years, the only place that could be relied upon to produce multiple immortals in a short period of time was the Immortal Extreme Cave.

“It’s fate…” Bai Chijing said quietly.

They have seized 98% of the immortal resources of all living beings, including a large portion of immortal fortune. Such greed leaves no way for future generations to survive.

Unless later generations are fortunate enough to enter the Immortal Cave.

So, Bai Chijing once again pretended to be acting on the will of Heaven. He used the power of Heaven to transform the twelve wonders of the Mysterious Heaven into twelve true immortals, and then passed down the method of cultivating immortal energy so that these twelve true immortals could go to the mortal world to spread the Tao.

These twelve wonders include the Heavenly Fire Mountain of Vermilion Bird Continent, the Fighting Valley of White Tiger Continent, the Camel Sea Rock of Black Tortoise Continent, and the Immortal-Unraveling Platform of Azure Dragon Continent. Originally, these twelve wonders were all mysteries of natural creation, or formed by various reasons after their formation. Within a single earth vein, there are rare and precious materials, but at the same time, there are also special beings.

For example, on the Heavenly Fire of Vermilion Bird Continent, many spiritual fires are nurtured, and in its deepest part, a group of special beings without self-awareness were born. They exist between life and death, without lifespan and without death, and each one looks like a figure covered in flames.

People call this special creature of the volcano a "true spirit in the fire".

Now, as this spectacle transforms into a true immortal, the spirits within the fire also receive a direct blessing, becoming disciples of this true immortal. Originally devoid of consciousness, these spirits within the fire have developed their own self-awareness after the spectacle is enlightened.

This is a soul bestowed upon it by Heaven.

However, at the same time, mental images were also planted in these souls.

This was naturally Bai Chijing's backup plan, mainly because he didn't want to clean up the mess caused by some unexpected events.

At this time, with the arrival of these twelve extraordinary immortals, they were essentially twelve powerful forces. As a result, the cultivation path of immortal energy spread very quickly. After all, the spiritual energy in the four continents of Zhixuantian was extremely volatile, and the original cultivation methods all relied heavily on spiritual energy.

Those cultivators from powerful immortal sects and families are fine, since each sect has a lot of rare and precious materials stored up. But the impact on independent cultivators in the world is much greater!

In particular, the Xuanxiu Division, an official institution of the Xuanxian Dynasty, is staffed mostly by cultivators who are originally independent cultivators.

Currently, many of these independent cultivators have obtained official positions, thus acquiring considerable wealth in the secular world. They are no longer rootless and are even eligible to be invited to some events by immortal sects and cultivation families. However, in the end, the wealth these independent cultivators have earned through countless hardships can never compare to that of immortal sects and cultivation families.

Therefore, after learning about the method of cultivating immortal energy, even if these rogue cultivators did not actively seek it out, the Xuanxian Dynasty would use a semi-coercive approach to force them to try switching to this method.

Moreover, the Celestial Venerable of the Near Dao had already indicated that he should do his best to cooperate, which made not only rogue cultivators actively participate in this brand-new cultivation system, but also the major immortal sects actively follow suit. Even powerful figures like True Lord Fengwu and the True Immortal of Baizushi Mountain took the initiative to try to cultivate this path of immortal energy cultivation.

Thus, as the power of education continued to emerge, and was then infused into the tenth heaven by Bai Chijing, this fledgling tenth heaven finally underwent a qualitative change.

In an instant, boundless colorful light surged forth, shaking the entire Zhixuan Heaven.

"The tenth layer of heaven, where spiritual energy transforms into immortal energy, nourished by immortal energy, has endless wonders, can prolong life and illuminate the flaws of the universe..." Bai Chijing began to perfect this tenth layer of heaven.

It's just like perfecting the nine layers of heaven before.

However, after he finished explaining the specifics of the tenth heaven, he suddenly changed his tone: "At the end of the tenth heaven, one first condenses the energy, then peers into the heavens, forming a unique lineage of celestial energy, comparable to the Dao, but not quite the Dao!"

The things Heaven gave Bai Chijing were only enough for him to perfect these ten heavens. If he wanted to continue to advance his realm, the only way was to attack the Immortal Extreme Cave and then use the Immortal Extreme Cave to transform into the unfinished heavens beyond these ten heavens.

But that's obviously unrealistic; it's too difficult.

Therefore, Bai Chijing decided to change his approach. After attaining immortality, there would be no more realm divisions. When he felt that his cultivation was complete, he would go to condense his fortune and peer into the heavens. Once he succeeded, he could form his own lineage of heavenly veins. In this way, even if he was not a near-immortal, he would still have mastered most of the power of a near-immortal.

If the Heavenly Fortune is strong enough, it is even possible to directly overwhelm the near-immortal!
This inspiration naturally came from Bai Chijing's thoughts of Ye Feifan and the spirit monkey. Both of these beings were involved in matters of destiny.

After the Heavenly Mandate, although his position was close to the Dao, it was ultimately not quite like that of someone close to the Dao.

Because of self-restraint.

However, when one condenses the energy and peers into the heavens, one must take a core concept as the foundation for transforming oneself into the destiny of heaven. This foundation can be described as upholding justice, eliminating demons and monsters, or even helping the common people; it is not a simple matter.

At this stage, this path of immortal cultivation has become fundamentally different from the Dao Integration Immortal Path system and the Great Luo Immortal Path system.

To avoid any unforeseen complications, after establishing this exceptionally special tenth heaven, Bai Chijing once again feigned divine will.

This time, he reflected all his thoughts to the heavens.

In an instant, the Heaven of Knowledge was shaken!

This was a sign from Heaven, and Heaven had fully accepted Bai Chijing's changes to the tenth floor.

Thus, in the four continents of Zhixuan Heaven, the already scarce immortal resources suddenly appeared out of nowhere. These immortal resources were not created out of thin air, but were transformed from the spiritual energy of the mountains and rivers that Heaven had previously devoured.

Heaven began to wane.

It is known that Xuan Tian began to grow stronger at this moment.

Therefore, the dejected Heaven, without even a moment of weakness, once again rose in power.

"Bai Chijing, the Immortal of the Primordial Beginning, what exactly have you done?!"

One of the Heavenly Venerables, who was close to the Dao, couldn't help but exclaim in shock and anger, because at this moment, the ninety-eight percent of the Immortal Dao resources in the Immortal Extreme Cave began to flicker and become uncertain.

This marks the birth of a new path to immortality, fundamentally negating the old one.

"Bai Chi Jing! How dare you!" This was a direct rebuke from a near-Dao Heavenly Venerable who had come to understand this.

After all, Bai Chijing's actions not only offended all the near-Dao Heavenly Venerables of Zhixuan Heaven, but also created a deadly feud with them.

"White thief!"

A Celestial Venerable of the Near Dao directly gave Bai Chijing a new name, and although the roar was extremely angry, making the Celestial Venerable's aura terrifying, it also showed a rare hint of panic.

And this wasn't an isolated incident.

One can imagine how furious and embarrassed these near-Dao immortals of Zhi Xuantian must be at this moment.

They thought they had outsmarted Bai Chijing and had him completely under their control, but who would have thought that Bai Chijing would pull such a trick on them, using the power of the heavens to bring forth a new immortal path and fundamentally negate the old one!

This is similar to a new dynasty establishing new coins and declaring that the old coins of the previous dynasty will no longer circulate. At this time, this Immortal Cave is like those "old coins of the previous dynasty that will no longer circulate".

Inside the Immortal Cave, many near-Dao Celestial Venerables were dumbfounded.

How dare Bai Chijing do that?
Throughout history, even someone as powerful as the First Immortal probably wouldn't dare to do this.

And he actually managed to make it happen!

"He actually dares to deny the path of Dao Integration!" The voices of the near-Dao Celestial Venerables were filled with killing intent, but these near-Dao Celestial Venerables could not help but feel somewhat surprised and uncertain.

After all, where did Bai Chijing learn the art of denial from?
How can someone be so powerful as to deny the Dao of Immortality?

The Immortal Path originated from the Dao Integration Immortal Path system spreading in the Heaven of Knowledge and Mystery, and then gradually formed over the years invisibly. It is second only to the Heavens, but at the same time, it can be said to be a part of the Heavens.

In some realms where the will of Heaven is weak, the path of immortality can completely replace the will of Heaven and become the new, true Heavenly Way.

The immortal path of Zhixuan Heaven is of this type, but the heavens of Zhixuan Heaven are stronger, which is why they have always been able to suppress the immortal path.

The world has undergone a dramatic change!
This seemed to herald the arrival of a new era, causing fear among all living beings in the world.

At this moment, even the First Immortal, who was still in the mortal realm, showed an expression of disbelief on his face.

Well, at least he's no longer expressionless and indifferent.
