He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

Moreover, this battle can truly be called the pinnacle of this generation of young prodigies. If it weren't for the fact that it took place in this desolate wilderness, it would surely have been...

It will surely attract worldwide attention, and countless forces will come to watch.

However, this was a contest for opportunity, and since Yin Tiande had lost, he naturally lost the chance to inherit the legacy.

After he got up from the ground, he didn't say a word and flew away with his badly injured body.

After this battle, it's unknown whether it will leave a shadow in his heart. If he can overcome his inner demons, he can still achieve great things in the future. If he cannot overcome them and they evolve into inner demons, it will be very difficult for him to improve his realm.

Yin Tiande was invincible. Before Zhou Qing came to the Ziwei Star Region, he had never been defeated by anyone of his generation. Those who left in such a sorry state were usually the holy sons and daughters of other immortal sects.

Being defeated twice by the Princess of Shenzhou was a huge blow to him, and it might have made him despondent. But in Zhou Qing's view, it was more likely that he would cultivate even harder and that there would still be a chance to meet him in the future.

"That must be the legendary Eight Views Palace, right?" Dao Qingling flew in, her white dress as pure as a fairy. The battle ended quickly, without lasting hundreds or thousands of moves, and without consuming much of her energy.

"Let's go into this Taiqing Sacred Realm and take a look." Zhou Qing stopped thinking about Yin Tiande and turned his gaze to the small world in front of him.

One could vaguely see that deep within this small world lay an ancient palace, simple and natural, shrouded in purple mist, shrouded in a hazy glow.

With one step, the group entered this small world.

Taiqing Sacred Realm is not large; it is a very small secret realm, shrouded in mist and clouds.

For the group, what attracted their attention most was an ancient gate tower in the center.

It is not particularly grand, but like an immortal palace, it possesses an aura that suppresses heaven and earth, inspiring deep awe.

"The Tao that can be spoken of is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name. Nameless, it is the origin of Heaven and Earth; named, it is the mother of all things."

Upon arriving at the purple palace, Zhou Qing immediately saw the scriptures inscribed on it.

This is an introduction, perhaps it can be called the first part of the Tao Te Ching. Although it contains profound sayings, it does not contain specific methods of practice. The second part of the Tao Te Ching, which can be truly practiced, can only be found within this Eight Views Palace.

“Profound and mysterious, the gateway to all wonders,” Zhou Qing pondered as he looked at the sentence.

Inside the ancient bronze palace, he had seen the Gate of Myriad Wonders of the Ruthless Great Emperor, which truly condensed the infinite mysteries of the universe. It even contained passages of scripture that made people feel as if they had seen the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and unknowingly touched that bloody character for "immortal".

The others also seemed to be deep in thought, sensing the great wisdom of Lao Tzu.

However, for them, this introduction, though good, is of little use without the method of cultivation. Moreover, who among them does not possess the Emperor's Scripture, whose quotations are no less valuable than those in the Tao Te Ching before them?

“This Eight Trigrams Palace is protected by mysterious array patterns that are difficult to break through by brute force. To enter, we must wait until the night of the full moon, when the power of all the stars in the heavens is gathered, before it can be opened,” Zhou Qing said.

"However, I have planned it out. Tonight is the night of the full moon, and in three or four hours we will be able to enter the Eight Views Palace."

Sure enough, three or four hours later, moonlight shone down, and the power of countless stars surged forth, cascading down like waterfalls, causing the purple palace to emit a strange sound, and the gates of the Eight Views Palace slowly opened.

As soon as they entered, they felt a misty purple aura surrounding them, which increased the speed at which their magical power circulated several times over.

This is a treasure land; cultivation here is several times faster than outside.

Zhou Qing walked straight to the only visible stone platform, took out a book with the title "Tao Te Ching" engraved on it.

He quickly flipped through the stone book, where ancient characters full of Taoist charm were carved. They were very artistic. Even if you don't understand the characters, it doesn't matter. You can understand the text if you understand the Tao.

"One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones." After turning to the last few pages, Zhou Qing saw such a secret technique, and his eyes immediately shone with divine light.

With this secret technique, he could greatly alleviate the situation of being unable to be in two places at once, and even enlightenment could be achieved by simultaneously cultivating four different kinds of things, which was extremely useful to him.

Chapter 239 One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones

The "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" technique is a super secret technique in the field of incarnation, which can instantly create three incarnations that are exactly the same as the real body.

The physical body, magical power, realm, and even the unique phenomena of the body can all be transformed into the Three Pure Ones by the One Qi Transformation. Whatever combat power the main body has, the Three Pure Ones will have the same combat power, without the slightest difference.

Moreover, this is not a simple incarnation; it is the emergence of three additional selves, with even thoughts and feelings appearing out of nowhere, possessing wondrous and mysterious uses.

For example, during cultivation, these three bodies can simultaneously engage in four different cultivation practices with the original body, and the insights gained can be shared. The cultivation speed is not simply quadrupled.

This is the function that Zhou Qing wants most right now. He has gained too many insights and treasures recently. Even with his constitution, which allows him to comprehend the Dao as easily as drinking water, he feels overwhelmed.

The technique of "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" is incredibly profound and full of infinite mysteries. Compared to the Three Pure Ones, the incarnations of the Golden Crow Clan outside the Heavenly Realm are nothing.

The only difference might be that he can manifest his avatar from tens of millions of miles away outside the Heavenly Realm, while the Three Pure Ones' avatar must first manifest in front of him.

At this moment, Dao Qingling also moved here. Seeing Zhou Qing holding a stone scripture, staring intently at it, as still as a statue, she knew that this was probably the second part of the Tao Te Ching.

Although she was also very curious about the cultivation methods inside, she was not in a hurry. She continued to explore among the stone platforms, searching for other substances left by Lao Tzu.

Xiaoyu and the Sun Saintess also searched carefully on the stone platform and soon found other cabinets, taking out one after another of the scriptures and treasures left by Lao Tzu.

There was a book on alchemy that recorded the methods for making various elixirs and their effects. Dao Qingling only glanced at it before becoming completely engrossed in it.

Alchemy is a method that uses mysterious techniques to fuse and synthesize certain existing essences in the world, and sublimate them into a more potent essence.

The art of alchemy also bears many traces of the Dao of Creation, and Lao Tzu's alchemy is perhaps the most profound and extensive alchemy in the universe.

This does not mean that Lao Tzu's alchemy skills surpassed those of everyone in the universe, but rather that Lao Tzu's alchemy skills were more complex and systematic, ranging from low to high levels, from internal alchemy to external alchemy, and from foundation building to attaining enlightenment, with incredibly detailed content.

Compared to the crude alchemy methods of most cultivators, Laozi's alchemy techniques are simply exquisite, capable of refining pills several major realms higher from a lower realm.

Besides this alchemy scripture, some other treasures were also discovered during the search.

There is a replica of the Vajra Bracelet, which is made from the Nine Heavens White Jade Disc from the Nine Heavens Divine Jade series. Although it is only a king-level weapon, it will definitely evolve into a legendary holy weapon in the future.

There is a pottery jar with the character "封" (seal) engraved on it. Clearly, this is a secret artifact, and it is unknown what is sealed inside.

Beside the pottery jar was a scroll containing a record that the pottery jar contained the Three Pure Ones body of a Great Accomplishment King, capable of fighting for an hour with the combat power of a Great Accomplishment King. It was used to prevent the successor from encountering great danger and dying prematurely.

Suddenly, "Boom!"

With a loud bang, the Eight Views Palace shook violently, startling even Zhou Qing.

Suddenly, a burst of purple light erupted, revealing a purple gourd, crystal clear, its entire body shimmering with purple light. Even Xiaoyu, who had taken out the gourd, was stunned.

“A quasi-Emperor artifact,” Zhou Qing said solemnly.

Dao Qingling was also startled by the commotion and snapped out of her reverie. She looked at the purple gourd with some surprise and said, "It's actually a quasi-Emperor artifact. Even in our clan's royal treasury, such artifacts are extremely rare."

That wasn't all. Suddenly, the Sun Saintess took out another Dao Gate covered with runes. Its shape was completely different from the other domain gates. This was a gate covered with Quasi-Emperor runes.

"With the Quasi-Emperor Talisman Gate, as long as it's not a Quasi-Emperor who makes a move, one can escape unscathed. Moreover, it can sever all connections with oneself, isolate time and space, and make it impossible for others to trace where the other side of this gate leads," Zhou Qing said.

Quasi-Emperor Artifacts and Quasi-Emperor Talismans: one for killing and seizing opportunities, the other for escaping, both are invincible. These are the protective artifacts that Lao Tzu left to his successors.

As long as the inheritor doesn't do anything drastic, having these two things will easily protect them as they reach the pinnacle.

Especially since there are no supreme imperial weapons in the Ziwei Star Region, these two protective treasures are the highest-level weapons in this star region, and they can help the inheritor overcome the tribulations on this planet without any problem.

In addition, they also found a large number of five-colored crystals, and a scroll of Taoist scriptures next to them.

As mentioned above, there is a small altar beneath the Eight Views Palace. If the inheritor feels that the world of the Ziwei Star Domain is too small, they can use the small altar to reach a large five-colored altar outside the Ziwei Domain. Then, they can replenish their energy through these five-colored crystals, open the Star Gate, and be taken to a more expansive training ground for geniuses.

He gave me the methods of cultivation, the treasures to protect my path, and even arranged how the successor should leave the Ziwei Star Region. The things Laozi left behind are very complete; he did everything he could.

What if the inheritor still dies young? Well, there's nothing that can be done. The master leads you through the door, but the cultivation is up to you. If someone with such scriptures and magical artifacts still dies young in the Ziwei Star Region, then it can only be said that the inheritor was too useless.

“Very good. Let’s cultivate here for a while and first complete the Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones Technique before thinking about anything else,” Zhou Qing said.

The others strongly agreed, including Dao Qingling, who put down the alchemy scripture in her hand. As long as one mastered the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique, one could use four sets of thoughts to comprehend the alchemy scripture, which would be many times faster than using one person alone.

Sharpening your axe won't delay your woodcutting; first comprehend the concept of "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones," and everything you do afterward will become much easier.

The group gathered around the Tao Te Ching, their consciousness focusing on the section on the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, and began cultivating according to its descriptions.

In less than half an hour, three streams of pure energy suddenly shot out from Zhou Qing's head, transforming into three figures that looked exactly like him.

"You figured it out already?" The other three were taken aback.

This secret technique is incredibly profound and mysterious. Even Dao Qingling has not yet created an avatar, while Zhou Qing has already created three avatars.

At this moment, Zhou Qing saw

Looking at the three emanations of pure energy in front of him, his expression was somewhat peculiar.

The reason he was able to comprehend the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones so quickly is not only because of his exceptional comprehension, but also because he had previously mastered the Incarnation Secret Technique outside the Heavenly Realm and had considerable experience with it.

The reason for his peculiar expression was twofold. First, he discovered that within the sea of ​​consciousness of these three pure qi incarnations, there was no Gate of Destiny floating and sinking exactly like his own. This was within his expectations; he had known about the unique characteristic of the Gate of Destiny across all realms since he was a child when he was refining artifacts.

Secondly, it's because these three manifestations of pure energy couldn't even transform his physique, or rather, they transformed some of the characteristics close to the Dao, but compared to his original physique, they were worlds apart; he couldn't transform the most core essence.

Thirdly, of the three essences he severed from the Dao back then, the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones only transformed his first essence, the Source of Dao, into the past. The second essence, the Ancestor of Destiny, was nowhere to be found, and the third essence, which is unknowable and undiscussable, was also nowhere to be found.

The One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones method has significant flaws, which Zhou Qing has always been well aware of.

Putting aside other things, just looking at the original novel about Ye Fan's battle against Ba Wang, you can see that once the true body enters the state of divine restriction, the pure qi incarnation not only remains unchanged, but will also suddenly dissipate and return to the body of the original body.

This meant that the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique was completely useless to the Great Emperor.

Once someone becomes a Great Emperor, they are forever in a state of divine restriction. This means that the "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" technique can never be used by a Great Emperor, and this flaw is considerable.

However, he is only a half-saint now, and the three pure qi incarnations he has created have all sorts of flaws. Although these three pure qi incarnations also have incomparably powerful strength and still stand at the top of the eight restrictions of half-saints, this is all because his main body is too invincible. The flaw of one qi transforming into three pure qi cannot be ignored.

"If only I could learn the supreme level secret technique of the Secret Realm, the Great Transformation Technique, that would be wonderful." Zhou Qing daydreamed wildly, yearning for this secret technique.

His level of self-transformation is far higher and more profound than Lao Tzu's One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.

For example, the ability to transform into any powerful figure in history can be chosen at will, and the transformation will be exactly the same in terms of combat power, with no requirements on the target.

For example, the incarnation of the Other Transformation of Freedom can also use the Other Transformation of Freedom Great Law, so the incarnation can multiply endlessly. However, although the three Pure Qi incarnations are called the true bodies, they cannot use the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones again.

Zhou Qing shook his head, then suddenly chuckled. He dismissed the idea; it was too impractical. It would be better to continue researching the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique, and even to slowly consider and improve it in the future, allowing the Great Emperor to also create incarnations. All of this was far more realistic than learning the Great Art of Other Transformation.

Zhou Qing continued his research on the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones. These three pure qi incarnations had a time limit. Once the time was up, they would automatically dissipate, and then they could only be transformed again after a certain period of time.

The first time Zhou Qing used the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique, only an hour later, the three pure qi incarnations dissipated. It took half a day before Zhou Qing was able to use it again.

The second time lasted for two hours, and it took half a day before it could be used again.

The third time lasted three hours, the fourth time, and the fifth time.

For two whole months, Zhou

Qing had performed the "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" technique dozens of times, and his understanding of this secret technique had almost reached its limit.

Now his Three Pure Ones Incarnation can last for a whole day at a time, and he can use it again after only one hour.

Having reached this level, his "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" technique had reached a sublime state, which could be described as consummate skill and divine mastery.

However, his results were remarkable, while the other three did not have it as smoothly as he did.

Dao Qingling spent a day creating three avatars, and then, like Zhou Qing, tried to cultivate this secret technique to a more profound level. However, after two months, he could only perform it once for eight hours at a time, and could only use it again after another eight hours.

Xiaoyu managed to create three incarnations in half a month, but her progress afterward was minimal.

As for the Sun Saintess, she can only create two incarnations so far. The other one has the form but no power. This is because her talent has reached its limit and she has been stuck. Even if she studies for another two months, there will be no change.
