From martial arts sects to immortality sects

Chapter 230 Unparalleled Supernatural Powers, Another Chance to Choose One's Fate
"Supernatural powers? You've comprehended supernatural powers?"

Li Qingqiu's expression was strange; he even thought he had misheard.

Supernatural powers are incredibly difficult to attain. His supernatural powers were passed down through the Daoist tradition panel, while Jiang Zhaoxia's supernatural powers were acquired through his own opportunities.

Could sixteen-year-old Zhao Zhen create supernatural powers through his own comprehension?
“After watching my third uncle undergo his tribulation, I gained some insights. I felt that heavenly lightning is a very strong force of heaven and earth. If I could make it work for me, that would be great. I thought about it in this direction and gradually gained some understanding.”

Zhao Zhen spoke as she recalled the events.

Li Qingqiu was deeply moved upon hearing this.

He truly deserves to be called the person who contributed the most to the library.

Putting aside his master-disciple relationship with Zhao Zhen, although Zhao Zhen was young, his contributions to the sect were no less than those of Ming Guang and Wu Xingyue. He created too many cultivation methods and spells, all of which he selflessly dedicated to the sect, laying the foundation for the sect's current prosperity in Taoist arts.

Because of this, Zhao Zhen was delayed for several years.

Zhao Zhen made a mistake regarding family relationships, which was the only wrong thing he ever did. However, from his perspective, it wasn't a mistake. Overall, his merits outweighed his demerits.

"Then what do you need me to do?" Li Qingqiu asked.

Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "Master, I don't need any help. I have to overcome the tribulation on my own. When you helped Third Uncle overcome his tribulation before, the power of the tribulation was obviously doubled, which means that outsiders are not allowed to intervene in the tribulation. It's just that you are strong enough, and Third Uncle has great luck and did not suffer any backlash."

"Backlash, you can feel that too?" Li Qingqiu asked, somewhat surprised.

Zhao Zhen said earnestly, "Although I can't clearly describe my feelings, these are indeed what I've realized."

Li Qingqiu suddenly felt that his comprehension had begun to transform.

Once the transformation is complete, the "Fate is easily broken" destiny may disappear.

The master and disciple discussed supernatural powers for a while. Upon learning that his master had also mastered supernatural powers, Zhao Zhen was very excited. Li Qingqiu shared his experience in mastering supernatural powers with him, giving him even more inspiration.

……

Two days before the end of the year, Zhao Zhen ascended the Tribulation Platform. The news spread quickly, astonishing many disciples. Could Zhao Zhen have already reached the ninth level of the Nourishing Yuan Realm?

Later, the disciples learned that Zhao Zhen was trying to create supernatural powers.

Creating supernatural powers requires undergoing a heavenly tribulation!

What constitutes supernatural powers became a matter of curiosity for the disciples.

Zhao Zhen meditated on the Tribulation Platform for a day and a night, and thunderclouds began to gather in the sky above Lixue Peak.

"There really is a heavenly tribulation."

Li Qingqiu stood on the cliff, gazing at the tribulation platform, and sighed softly.

Although his cultivation level was higher than Zhao Zhen's, his understanding of the Dao was indeed inferior to Zhao Zhen's.

The spells and techniques created by Zhao Zhen are all biased towards martial arts, and the [True Martial Body] destiny will enhance his comprehension in this area, so his comprehension is far superior to the excellent level.

Shen Yue, Xu Ning, and Jiang Zhaoxia also appeared one after another beside Li Qingqiu, curious about why Zhao Zhen was undergoing tribulation.

Not only them, but also the figures of true disciples kept appearing in the sky above the woods at the foot of the mountain, all rushing to watch.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, a small sun suddenly appeared behind Zhao Zhen's head, slowly rising and expanding, surrounded by a vortex of energy.

"As expected, it is the Great Sun Yang Technique, and he has elevated it to a new level."

Li Qingqiu sighed inwardly. The Great Sun Yang Technique was a royal technique of the Zhao family. After Zhao Zhen learned it, he never stopped practicing it and even developed several versions of the Great Sun Yang Technique.

The divine might began to gather, and although it was not as terrifying as when Jiang Zhaoxia was undergoing her tribulation, it still made people feel dull and oppressed.

When the first bolt of lightning struck, the sun behind Zhao Zhen was already over three zhang in diameter, and the lightning was neutralized when it hit it.

No, it's not about resolving, it's about absorbing!
Li Qingqiu keenly noticed that wisps of lightning appeared on Zhao Zhen's body, indicating that he was enduring the power of heavenly lightning.

He wasn't just enduring it; he was also using the Heavenly Gang Golden Body Technique to temper his body with heavenly lightning.

This kid...

It’s really awesome!
Jiang Zhaoxia was also surprised by Zhao Zhen's performance, and he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.

The same applies to Xu Ning and Shen Yue.

After this year, Zhao Zhen will have grown up, and he will likely be unstoppable in the future.

From the time Zhao Zhen entered the sect at the age of six, everyone could see his talent, and everyone recognized that he was the number one genius in the sect and that he would be the future of Qingxiao Sect.

But when he truly grew up, Jiang Zhaoxia and the other two all had a sense of disorientation.

Time flies! This spirited young man is about to take on the air of a powerful figure.

Another bolt of lightning struck down, but it was also absorbed by Zhao Zhen's sun. Zhao Zhen's body began to tremble, and his specially made robes billowed violently, as if they were about to burst open at any moment.

Blood began to flow from his seven orifices, but he remained silent, his mouth tightly shut.

One bolt of lightning after another struck down, and the sun above his head grew larger and larger, its power rapidly increasing. Everyone could feel the terrifying power contained within this sun.

The wind and waves between heaven and earth became scorching hot.

After the nine bolts of heavenly lightning struck, Zhao Zhen was covered in blood, but he still maintained his meditative posture.

This time, Li Qingqiu decided to trust him and not interfere with his tribulation.

The thunder continued.

The heavenly might only dissipated when the sixteenth strike was delivered.

Zhao Zhen did not fall down, but remained seated on the tribulation platform. The sun above his head was over six zhang in diameter, its surface burning with golden flames and patches of red flames, a truly magnificent sight.

Just then, a notification suddenly popped up in front of Li Qingqiu's eyes:
[Given that this is the first time a disciple of the Qingxiao Sect has created a supernatural ability, paving the way for the sect's lineage, you are granted one opportunity to choose your destiny.]

Opportunity to select your destiny!

Li Qingqiu was overjoyed, as he had not triggered the fate selection reward for many years.

His years of nurturing Zhao Zhen have finally paid off handsomely.

He then brought up Zhao Zhen's panel.

Name: Zhao Zhen Gender: Male

[Age: 16 years old]

Loyalty (Leader/Sect Leader): 95/94 (Maximum 100)

[Cultivation Aptitude: Exceptional]

[Comprehension: Exceptional]

[Destiny: Unparalleled supernatural powers, a true martial spirit]

[Unparalleled Supernatural Powers: He creates supernatural powers through his own enlightenment, gains the recognition of heaven and earth, and obtains extraordinary fortune. His supernatural powers will be aided by heaven and earth.]

[True Martial Body: Entering the Dao through martial arts, capable of transforming martial arts into the Dao of Immortality]

……

The fate of "[Easily Fated]" has finally disappeared, replaced by a new destiny: "[Unparalleled Supernatural Power]"!
With the help of Heaven and Earth?
That sounds pretty impressive.

Most importantly, Zhao Zhen has transformed into a person with exceptional talent.

Currently, Li Qingqiu only has access to Chu Jing's datasheet, and Chu Jing is already dead.

It is no exaggeration to say that from this day forward, Zhao Zhen has become the number one genius of Qingxiao Sect!

Li Qingqiu gave Zhao Zhen a deep look, then turned and went down the mountain.

Xu Ning and Shen Yue left one after another, while Jiang Zhaoxia stood in front of the cliff with her brows furrowed.

Although Zhao Zhen's tribulation was not as terrifying as his, Zhao Zhen was not undergoing a spiritual tribulation, and he relied entirely on himself to overcome it.

"This kid..."

Jiang Zhaoxia decided to treat Zhao Zhen as an opponent from now on.

In the days that followed, news of Zhao Zhen's creation of supernatural powers and his transcendence of heavenly tribulations spread rapidly.

Just after the end of the year, Zhao Zhen stepped down from the Tribulation Platform. Instead of returning to his cave, he headed towards the Scripture Pavilion. Along the way, disciples asked him questions, and he answered them all.

The supernatural power he created was called "True Martial Supreme Yang".

He will write down the cultivation method of "True Martial Supreme Yang" and include it in the Scripture Pavilion for his disciples to practice!

This greatly encouraged many of his disciples, and his prestige soared.

With the Spring Festival approaching, this matter remains a hot topic of discussion among the disciples.

Inside Lingxiao Courtyard, Li Qingqiu did not cultivate but came early to celebrate the festival, making the courtyard extremely lively.

Li Qingqiu sat in a chair, watching Li Shouzhen and Li Shoumin play and frolic, while Li Dongyue and Yun Cai sat on either side of him, peeling flowers and fruits for him by hand.

Zhao Zhen sat in the corner of the long table, surrounded by the three Xiao brothers, Yuan Li, Ji Ya, Yang Jueding, and Cheng Canghai, discussing supernatural powers.

Jiang Zhaoxia sat opposite Li Qingqiu, drinking alone. Wu Man'er tried to talk to him, but he ignored her.

Xu Ning stood on the eaves, admiring the snow.

Master Qingxiao and Shen Yue were boasting to each other, with the former subtly falling behind.

These scenes were so beautiful to Li Qingqiu, and she truly hoped that every year could be like this.

"Senior Brother, when do you plan to let Shouzheng and Shoumin cultivate immortality? And who will teach them?"

Li Dongyue looked at Li Shouzhen and the other person, and suddenly asked.

The three-year-old Li Shouzhen and his companion have already shown intelligence and wit, speaking eloquently and completely unlike other children their age. Everyone is curious whether the two of them have a talent for cultivating immortality.

Li Qingqiu replied, "They will begin their cultivation when Sifeng returns, and of course, Sifeng will be the one to teach them."

He was thinking this way for Li Sifeng's sake.

If Li Sifeng continues to ignore and disregard these two boys, he may not be able to control them in the future.

Compared to Li Shouzhen and Li Shoumin, Li Qingqiu still dotes on Li Sifeng more.

No matter how many shortcomings Li Sifeng has, he was raised by him, and in his eyes, Li Sifeng will always be a child.

"He can teach children to cultivate immortality? Don't let it interfere with upholding justice and protecting the people," Li Dongyue asked worriedly.

"We'll see then."

Li Qingqiu casually remarked that he wasn't worried about that at all.

He didn't believe in Li Sifeng, but rather in Li Shouzhen and Li Shoumin.

Now that Zhao Zhen has grown up, the title of child prodigy will be inherited by these two boys.

Li Qingqiu has no intention of suppressing them; he will let them fully display their talents. This is also to tell his disciples and the world that Qingxiao Sect is not lacking in geniuses, and each generation is stronger than the last.

Yun Cai sat to the side without saying a word, her attention also focused on Zhao Zhen.

She was five years older than Zhao Zhen, and she had to admit that Zhao Zhen's talent far surpassed hers; at least she couldn't create supernatural powers.

Now, she sees Zhao Zhen as her goal to catch up with.

As for the three Xiao brothers, she no longer took them seriously.

While everyone in the courtyard was having their own fun, people kept coming in, some to offer New Year's greetings, and others to report on their affairs.

Chai Yunshang, Chu Jing, Zhu Yan, and Li Sijin were admitted to the hospital one after another.

Li Dongyue was quickly pulled aside, as each hall needed money and resources to operate, and they all had to consult her.

Zhu Yan looked at Li Qingqiu, somewhat hesitant.

After much deliberation, she steeled herself, sat down beside Li Qingqiu, and whispered, "Sect Leader, the Zhu Clan is willing to support Liu Jing, and they have already begun their actions."
