There are no ancestors at all; I made them all up.

Chapter 118 Rebuilding the Path? [Third Update]

Outside the dream, on Mingxia Mountain, in a quiet room.

Inside the quiet room, Chen Qing suddenly opened his eyes!

The extremely cold and pure Yin energy descended from the crown of his head and entered his dantian. It was the essence he obtained from sitting in meditation for several days in the Xuan Shuang Dao Realm in his dream, where the Yin energy circulated on its own and absorbed the cold energy.

The Void Talisman silently manifested and quietly floated in the Niwan Palace!

Immediately afterwards, the tiny glass figure fell down, and the miniature Yin spirit merged into the Niwan Palace.

Chen Qing composed himself and waited for further developments.

Then, a bright white elixir the size of a grain of rice appeared inside his body!

"boom!"

A scorching torrent swept through my limbs and bones!

In an instant, his internal organs felt as if they were bathed in warm sunshine, his muscles and bones were tempered, and wisps of white smoke escaped from his pores.

"The feedback from the second outer pill has also arrived!"

He focused his mind inward, awaiting feedback from the elixir of extinguished Buddha light.

However, deep within the Qi Sea, only the clear radiance of the moon and the blazing white outer elixir flowed, without any further change.

"Can the external core only provide feedback once? Or is it that after the Silent Buddha Light external core merges with the Yuan Dan flying sword, it is considered another existence and is not consumed? But the Yin God clearly provided feedback again."

Chen Qing sighed, not particularly disappointed, as he naturally wouldn't risk consuming the outer core.

"It's alright. With these two pills, we can handle any situation. We can take this opportunity to refine the Great Sun True Flame outer pill into a Yuan Dan flying sword as well..."

The moment the thought arose, his divine sense touched the blazing white outer elixir, and the "Great Sun True Flame" scripture that he had seen in his dream reappeared in his mind on its own, faintly flowing!

"Buzz!"

The next instant, the second rice-grain-sized outer core in its abdomen burst forth with dazzling light!

Chen Qing felt his soul lighten, and his consciousness seemed to be lifted up by an invisible force, suddenly rising!
The roof of the quiet room, the Mingxia Mountains, and even the rolling sea of ​​clouds overhead were all left behind in an instant!
A boundless increase and expansion of your vision!
The invisible veins of heaven and earth, the hidden laws, and even the trajectory of the stars were all subtly revealed to him at this moment! Countless colorful lights flowed around him, containing all sorts of mysteries, making him feel as if he were in a dazzling river made of fragments of rules!

In the Niwan Palace, the Tathagata Talisman shone brightly, and countless profound Sanskrit characters flickered on its surface, as if nourished!
An indescribable sense of clarity and lightness filled Chen Qing's heart, and he felt a sense of "transcendence" that allowed him to break free from the constraints of this world!
"This is?"

Just as this sense of mystery reached its peak...

call!
The lifting force suddenly disappeared!

My vision is plummeting!
A quiet room with a futon, familiar wood grain... everything is back!
Chen Qing sat upright in place, as if he had never moved an inch, but the more refined Tathagata talisman in his Niwan Palace and the blazing white outer elixir in his Dantian proved that the fleeting glimpse he had just seen was no illusion.

"A spiritual journey? A manifestation of the Dao?" He frowned, recalling the mysterious sensation he had just experienced. "Concentrating on the external elixir and reciting scriptures, I was able to glimpse the shadow of the laws of heaven and earth? What is the reason for this?"

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him.

"This external elixir belongs to the Great Sun True Flame Dao Path. This path should have been severed after the Immortal Dynasty Era. With the shackles of heaven and earth falling, the Dao Path should have collapsed and dissipated, and no one could sense it anymore, no one could cultivate it anymore! But today I am giving back this external elixir, which originated tens of thousands of years ago, to the present world. It is equivalent to recreating this Dao and reopening it in the world?!"

But as soon as the thought arose, he suppressed it.

“No! According to Senior Brother Han Jing, only Nascent Soul cultivators have the ability to open the path! I am just a mere Yin Spirit, and even with my external core, I have barely reached the Golden Core realm. What qualifications do I have to reopen the path? Moreover, there were no such phenomena when the external core gave feedback before. Is it because I do not have the cultivation method for that decayed external core?”

Thinking of this, he felt a connection and his divine sense sank into the blazing white outer core, trying to activate its true meaning.

"Teng!"

A tiny, blazing white flame, radiating an aura that could incinerate everything, leaped from his fingertip!

Although the flame was small, it was extremely domineering. As soon as it appeared, the temperature in the quiet room soared and the air became distorted!

Supernatural power, the world-burning fire!
Without needing to perform hand seals or chant incantations, and without needing to use any magical power to activate it, the fire seemed to be an integral part of his body, as easy as using his own limbs!
Staring at the flames of destruction leaping from his fingertips, and sensing the terrifying true meaning of the laws contained within them, Chen Qing narrowed his eyes.

"Supernatural powers formed on their own! The path of cultivation resumed?" He took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions. "This matter is too complicated and needs to be investigated slowly, but right now, the opportunity in the northern lands in my dream is more important!"

He suddenly stood up and pushed open the door to go out.

"Monkey! Big Claw! Little Ray! Would you like to hear the story of our patriarch?"

Soon, the mountain became lively, but it quickly returned to calm. Chen Qing, who had obtained new sentences from the Dao Yan Lu, returned to his quiet room.

"With these two sentences, you should be able to break through the barriers and comprehend the great power of the Dao in the Dao Realm, right?"

Outside Mingxia Mountain.

A flying boat, whistling sharply, hurtled straight towards the gate of Mingxia Mountain!
Standing at the bow of the boat was a man in a fluttering blue robe, none other than Bai Shaoyou, who had rushed back day and night after receiving news of Chen Qing's return. Just as he was about to activate his escape technique, with the mountain gate in sight, a sudden change occurred!
"Om-"

A gray mist rose up around the mountain gate!
The flying boat crashed into it, as if it were stuck in a quagmire. No matter how Bai Shaoyou urged it on, it could only spin around in place!

"What's going on? Is there a maze in the mountains?!" Bai Shaoyou's heart skipped a beat. His magic power surged in his palm as he tried to force his way out, but it only stirred up bigger ripples. Like a stone thrown into a deep pool, it was difficult to enter the mountain!
Just as he was getting anxious, his gaze shifted and he suddenly caught sight of a boy of about eight or nine years old on the rocky path below the mountain. The boy was carrying a wooden box about half his height and charging towards the eerie mist, his little face full of stubbornness and confusion.

But every time he tried, he would get dizzy and retreat after a few steps, all in vain.

Bai Shaoyou's heart stirred, he suppressed the restlessness of the flying boat, and with a flash, he landed about ten feet in front of the boy.

The boy noticed someone was there, took a half step back warily, and instinctively protected the wooden box beside him.

Bai Shaoyou softened his tone and tentatively asked, "Young brother, why are you lingering here? There's something strange about the mountains now, and the fog is dangerous. Don't wander around recklessly."

The boy's face relaxed slightly when he saw that Bai Shaoyou had an extraordinary demeanor and did not seem like a bad person.

He imitated the adults, clasped his hands and bowed: "So that senior may know that my name is Sun Jiao. My ancestor... recently passed away while on a garrison duty at Xuyuan Mountain. Before his death, he left a message instructing me to come and seek refuge with Master Chen of Mingxia Mountain. I hope that Master Chen will take me in, out of consideration for our past friendship."

In my dream, the Moon Palace.

Xuan Shuang Dao Realm.

Countless ice crystals no longer drifted gently down, but were instead swept up by an invisible force and swirled into a tornado.

The figures who were originally meditating in front of their respective ice monuments and ice walls were all startled awake and stood up, their eyes all turning towards the center of the storm.

"what happened?"

"Who has caused such a strange phenomenon?!"

"A Dao Realm spiritual energy going berserk?!"

Words filled with doubt rose and fell.

Two streaks of icy light pierced through the surrounding wind and snow, descending suddenly.

It was Yun Shu Zhenren and Ji Yue Zhenren who were alerted by the urgent report. After all, the person who entered the room to meditate was recommended by the two of them, so they naturally had to come and investigate since there was something unusual going on.

Master Yun Shu's gaze swept across the chaotic core with lightning speed, and for the first time, a look of astonishment appeared on her cold face: "The Dao Realm's spiritual energy is out of control?" Her body instinctively gathered cold energy, as if she wanted to forcefully suppress it.

Master Jiyue's expression also changed, and then his gaze fell on Elder Yuan, who was sitting upright.

"Master Uncle!" Master Jiyue hurriedly stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "Why is the spiritual energy of the Dao Realm so violent? Did Fellow Daoist Jiming trigger some taboo?"

Old Yuan slowly raised his eyelids, but instead of looking at Ji Yue, he looked at Chen Qing and asked, "What is the background of this boy?"

Master Jiyue hurriedly replied, "Uncle-Master, he is the current true disciple of the Hidden Star Sect, with the Daoist name Jiming. He has come here with the Daoist path of 'Great Sun True Flame' to exchange Yin-attribute true understanding cultivation with several families in the North."

"Hidden Star Sect? Changing cultivation techniques?" Old Yuan's facial muscles twitched slightly. "Not a true disciple of my sect?"

"What?" Behind him, a thin cultivator exclaimed anxiously, "Such a Taiyin physique and seed of enlightenment should rightfully belong to my Guanghan Dao Seed! In the hands of the Hidden Star Sect, isn't this like casting pearls before swine? It's a complete waste!" His tone was full of regret.

Master Yun Shu frowned, stepped forward, faced Elder Yuan directly, and asked, "Uncle-Master! The spiritual energy of the Dao Realm is so violent, what exactly is Fellow Daoist Ji Ming doing? Could it be that he is trying to forcibly merge with the spiritual energy here and trigger the resonance of some Dao path inheritance to transmit the Dharma?"

This was the most "reasonable" and also the most "presumptuous" explanation she could think of.

"I hope my uncle will intervene. He lacks the fundamental techniques of Guanghan and is forcibly inducing resonance in the Dao path. If he is not careful, he will damage the foundation of his Dao body!"

"Wrong! Wrong!"

Upon hearing this, Old Yuan shook his head and then sighed.

"wrong?"

Master Yun Shu and Master Ji Yue exchanged a glance, their confusion growing.

"Is he there?"

Old Yuan gave a wry smile and said, "The restriction was set up by the patriarch. No matter how high this child's talent is, how can he break through it? But although there is a barrier from the restriction, it does not prevent him from comprehending the meaning of the Taiyin Rotation. Therefore, he has gained inspiration from it and is currently..."

"Incorporate the old and adapt the new, and forge a new path!"

"Incorporate the old and incorporate the new, open..." Master Jiyue was confused at first, then her beautiful eyes widened instantly!
After a moment of confusion, Master Yun Shu understood the meaning of these words and asked directly, "Uncle-Master, are you saying that Fellow Daoist Jiming is not following the path of predecessors, but... forging his own path?!"

The moment these words were spoken, Chen Qing, who was in the very center of the ice crystal tornado, suddenly opened his eyes.
