Chapter 62 The Fourth Level of the Dao Palace
In the world of immortality, the immortal energy from the celestial realm is known as pure yang immortal energy due to its extreme yang properties. Only the strongest individuals in the secret realms of longevity and some powerful treasures living in the lower realms can obtain it from the celestial realm.

For cultivators in the lower realms, even a trace of this celestial energy can greatly advance their cultivation, allowing them to make rapid progress in both physical and supernatural abilities.

Fang Han had encountered countless fortuitous events, and not long ago he once again snatched a bag of Pure Yang Immortal Pills. He was constantly refining the Pure Yang Immortal Qi, and the disappearance of this wisp of Pure Yang Immortal Qi made him frown.

"They shouldn't be discovered, right?" Qi Zhe heard Fang Han's surprised and doubtful voice, and looked at the special immortal energy floating out of the Gate of Ascension. His expression became strange.

Qi Zhe didn't have any particular thoughts about the Gate of Ascension absorbing Fang Han's pure Yang immortal energy. Since Fang Han couldn't come over from the other side of the gate anyway, Qi Zhe hesitated for a moment before taking that wisp of pure Yang immortal energy for himself.

He was just worried that this kind of thing would happen frequently in the future, and if it made Fang Han suspicious and unable to hear him anymore, that would be a real problem.

"Never mind, we'll talk about it later," Qi Zhe said, drawing upon a wisp of pure yang immortal energy in the darkness and beginning to observe it quietly.

This wisp of pure yang immortal energy was not much; even if all of it were gathered together, it would only amount to the quantity of a single pure yang immortal pill. However, as it floated in the darkness, it caused the surrounding spiritual energy to change drastically, with strange runes flashing back and forth.

"The immortal energy from that world holds the secret to immortality!" Qi Zhe clearly saw and sensed the uniqueness of the pure yang immortal energy.

This wisp of pure yang immortal energy is so flawless that it is untouched by the five elements and yin and yang, and it has a sense of returning to chaos within it. Moreover, it carries a kind of primordial energy of all things, as if it were a wisp of immortal breath that existed before the birth of heaven and earth.

But Qi Zhe knew that it was not the true origin. In the end, it was all formed from the eternal life energy spewed out by the Gate of Eternity, but it was much purer than the spiritual energy of the lower realm.

"Does this count as Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation?" Qi Zhe muttered to himself as he introduced pure Yang Immortal Qi into the Dao Palace Secret Realm and began to refine it into the Divine Treasury of his Lungs.

Qi Zhe found the sudden idea very strange, feeling as if he were an ancient Qi cultivator, using Qi to transform into spirit, refining a god from the essence of heaven and earth, spiritual energy, and immortal energy.

As Qi Zhe moved, the wisps of pure yang immortal energy were refined by the Lung Divine Treasury, and the flower bud, just one step away from blooming, suddenly blossomed, and a phantom divine palace began to quietly emerge.

"Borrowing vital energy to nourish the true form, one can see that the mind and spirit are immortal."

A faint and ethereal chanting sound inexplicably rose in the Dao Palace, then began to blur as Qi Zhe listened carefully. It seemed that the Daoist was chanting in the future, and that people in the present world could not hear it.

Qi Zhe was not surprised at all, knowing that I was a riddle-maker. He turned his head and began to stare at the god hidden in the lung god's chamber, vaguely seeing that its shape was exactly the same as his.

A majestic and dignified deity sat cross-legged in the newly formed Dao Palace, surrounded by swirling clouds and shimmering light; he truly looked like a god.

"I'm already at the fourth level of the Dao Palace realm, and I should be able to enter the Four Extremes Secret Realm within six months at most."

Qi Zhe looked at it with a satisfied expression, and then began to estimate his cultivation speed, feeling that he would soon be able to complete the Dao Palace Secret Realm and step into the Four Extremes Secret Realm.

He has indeed made great progress in cultivating the Sacred Body Scripture during this period. Once he reaches the Four Extremes Secret Realm, he will definitely be considered a top-tier genius in the Eastern Wilderness. It is estimated that ordinary holy sons will not be his match.

"The other holy sons are just average; the only ones we need to be wary of are those few who have cultivated ruthless techniques."

After considering the prodigies of this generation in the Eastern Wilderness, Qi Zhe began to continue perfecting the fourth level of the Dao Palace, preparing to seclude himself in the secret chamber until the end of time. As Qi Zhe continued to cultivate, he gradually discovered that after a year, the crack in the Gate of Ascension had widened slightly, and the amount of spiritual energy leaking out had increased considerably.

However, the laws of the Great Dao within this darkness remained unchanged, appearing and disappearing yet still within reach, just as always. If Qi Zhe's cultivation level weren't currently so low, he would surely have gained a great deal by calmly comprehending them.

As Qi Zhe went into seclusion, many Yao Guang disciples in Haoshui City stayed for several days. The Yao Guang Holy Son left without finding Qi Zhe's whereabouts, but Yao Xi stayed behind for some unknown reason.

The inn contained a series of palaces, but there were not many cultivators staying there. If it weren't for the few Yao Guang disciples who stayed there, the entire inn would have been very deserted.

Now, deep within the inn, in a palace, Ji Biyue, dressed in a green dress, sits facing Yao Xi, the Holy Maiden of Yao Guang, drinking tea with a leisurely and contented expression.

Yao Xi and Ji Biyue didn't have a particularly good relationship before, but they had recently exchanged information. The inside information about Yao Guang Holy Land that Ji Biyue knew was all revealed by Yao Xi.

The two have now gotten along well and are showing signs of becoming close friends; otherwise, they wouldn't be sitting together drinking tea.

“My sister, the Holy Maiden, is exceptionally talented. I think she’s not much less talented than the Holy Son of Yao Guang. Perhaps one day Yao Guang will produce a female Holy Master,” Ji Biyue said to Yao Xi with a charming smile, her expression serious.

This woman genuinely believed that Yao Xi was not much weaker than the Holy Son of Yao Guang, and in her mind, the Holy Son of Yao Guang, who had been hiding his true strength for so long, was not that powerful.

But Yao Xi didn't think so. Beautiful and captivating like a fairy from the Jade Palace, she now wore a sorrowful expression and said, "If only that were true."

Some time ago, Yaoguang was thrown into a brief period of chaos due to Han Jing's death. At that time, many old stories were brought up again. It was then that she heard for the first time that Yaoguang had an ancient holy son who had defected.

But that wasn't the most crucial point. She hadn't expected that Qi Zhe, whom she had been hunting for so long, was actually that person's disciple. Recalling the words of the orthodox Yao Guang that Qi Zhe had spoken to her in Yandu, she fell into deep thought.

"Why did that person run away? What exactly happened to Yao Guang back then?" Yao Xi had been troubled by the past of Yao Guang Holy Land for more than a month, and she still couldn't figure it out.

Seeing Yao Xi lost in thought, Ji Biyue paused for a moment, then comforted her, "Why be discouraged? The future is uncertain. Perhaps one day an opportunity will come, and you'll soar to great heights."

Upon hearing this, Yao Xi snapped out of her reverie, nodded slightly, and suddenly asked, "Sister Biyue, is there any news about the matter I asked you about a few days ago?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Biyue's expression changed slightly. After thinking for a moment, she said, "There are tens of thousands of cultivators gathered in Haoshui City, and hundreds of outsiders entered the city in those few days. I searched for everyone for you, but none of them matched your description."

Upon hearing this, Yao Xi frowned. After a moment's thought, she could only shake her head and think to herself, "As expected, he possesses a mysterious technique to change appearances and a secret treasure to prevent calculations. Finding him now is even more difficult."

"However, it's not that no one can be suspicious. There's a cultivator named Wang Teng who has remained secluded since your arrival. I think we should investigate him."

Ji Biyue's words made Yao Xi's expression shift, and she asked in surprise, "Wang Teng?"
