Cube-like Supernatural Powers: Longevity Begins with Qi Refining

Chapter 97 Wanmu Dao Palace

Today, beneath Xiong Zhou's feet is a high platform constructed from white jade-colored materials.

One after another, talismans imbued with the Daoist principles of emptiness flickered within, like dazzling stars, constantly converging and then separating.

This is the Void Dao Platform.

Although this was the first time Xiong Zhou had seen it, it was described in the sect manual "Tai Li Ji Shi" when he was a child.

Its presence can be found in all the secret realms of the Tai Li Immortal Sect.

These are similar to bus stops, which are used by sect disciples who have not mastered the art of walking through the void to enter and exit the secret realm.

Looking around, one sees a huge plaza with three thousand Void Platforms arranged there.

Every now and then, Tai Li disciples, each exuding an aura of immortality, would materialize from the void and arrive at the Myriad Trees Secret Realm.

Or perhaps one can ascend the high platform from outside the square, transforming reality into illusion, and leave this secret realm of heaven and earth.

Xiong Zhou stepped down from the void platform, casually making a hand seal. A phoenix-shaped mark lit up from his palm, producing wisps of fire.

"Hmm, I don't feel any problems."

"I neither perceived any difference between the laws of heaven and earth and those within the Tai Li Immortal Sect, nor did my perception of the Dao of heaven and earth become blurred, nor were my supernatural powers and Dao body diminished."

"Is this the secret realm of heaven and earth that has been connected with the laws of heaven and earth and has become an appendage of the 'Qi Refining World'?"

"The difference between this world and the outer realms is indeed immense."

Xiong Zhou sighed inwardly.

In his perception, the only difference between his current location and Chenming Mountain was the degree of enrichment of the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

If he hadn't known beforehand that this was an alien secret realm "salvaged" from the Void Sea, he would have thought it was a native secret realm born from the "Refining World" itself.

Following the signs, Xiong Zhou walked out of the square and came to a Taoist palace complex that was not very tall but covered an extremely large area.

"Wanmu Dao Palace".

Xiong Zhou looked at the plaque in front of the Dao Palace and murmured to himself.

Step inside, and the world changes abruptly.

The space here has been expanded, becoming tens of thousands of times larger than what is seen from the outside.

Upon arriving at this place, Xiong Zhou immediately saw three enormous signs, which were even inscribed with certain runes, making them extremely conspicuous.

Countless beasts, elves, and wooden golems... constantly moved about before my eyes, each performing its own function, exuding a sense of order that had taken root and sprouted in the wilderness, which was extremely unique.

As Xiong Zhou watched the figures coming and going, a child with willow-leaf-like hair, only one meter tall, a round figure, and a slightly chubby face, dressed in a blue Taoist robe, looked at him.

The child's eyes lit up slightly, and he ran all the way to Xiong Zhou's side.

"Excuse me, sir, is there anything I can help you with?"

Xiong Zhou looked at the baby who had just reached his abdomen and blinked.

Driven by his bloodline, he felt a strange sense of closeness to this child from another race.

This does not mean that the child has any blood connection with cunning or with people.

Rather, it is a resonance similar to the laws of heaven and earth, which is very compatible with his "abundance".

Xiong Zhou squatted down, took out a square orange fruit from his storage bag, and handed it to the child.

Instantly, the child swallowed hard, his gaze shifting from Xiong Zhou to the orange fruit, looking as if he wanted to take it but hesitated.

"Don't call me an immortal, I'm far from being an immortal."

"7

"My surname is Xiong, just call me Senior Brother Xiong."

"What's your name?"

"They probably won't just call him 'Little Child,' right?"

Xiong Zhou smiled and handed the fruit in his hand directly to the child.

"Tell me your name?"

How old are you this year?

The child, holding the fruit in both hands with a look of surprise on his face, bowed to Xiong Zhou.

"Thank you... Senior Brother Xiong."

"My name is Liu Heng, and I belong to the Wood Spirit Clan of this secret realm."

"According to the way the gentlemen count years, I am already 50 years old. In another 10 years, I will be able to finish my childhood and become a young Kodama who can go out freely."

"Now, you are a young student studying at the Wanmu Dao Palace."

Xiong Zhou seemed lost in thought.

If one only becomes a teenager after the age of 60, then roughly speaking, 60 years old for the Wood Spirit race is roughly equivalent to 6 years old for a human.

age.

Now, Liu Heng, at 50 years old, is roughly equivalent to a 5-year-old human.

So, does Wanmu Daogong also serve as a "kindergarten"?

"Senior Brother Xiong, I've seen you standing here for a while. Is there something you need?"

"I am very familiar with the Wanmu Dao Palace. Please feel free to ask if there is anything I can help you with."

Liu Heng held the square fruit in both hands, her face beaming with joy. Looking at Xiong Zhou, her eyes seemed to be filled with twinkling stars.

"Yes, I am indeed quite busy and would like Xiaoliu Heng's help."

"I just received a reconnaissance mission from my sect, which requires me to gather detailed information about the Myriad Trees Secret Realm."

"Yes, especially the regions, items, and spiritual plants related to suppressing evil spirits."

For Xiong Zhou, finding items to suppress evil spirits and accelerate the process of breaking through them was the most important thing.

The sect's mission can be completed along the way.

Anyway, this task doesn't require a specific location; you can just find any unexplored area to meet the most basic completion standard.

Liu Heng nodded.

He reached up and touched his chin, like a little adult, pondered for a moment, and then clapped his hands.

"It's a bit difficult, but it's not a problem for me."

"The spiritual herbs and plants used to suppress evil spirits generally grow on the edge or even in the central area of ​​places where evil spirits gather."

"I know that there is an extremely large compass inside the Wanmu Dao Palace, which is used to detect changes in the wood element's negative influence."

Liu Heng held the orange fruit in one small hand and offered it to Xiong Zhou with the other, her eyes seemingly filled with anticipation.

Xiong Zhou smiled again and reached out to grasp Liu Heng's chubby little hand.

Liu Heng's eyes narrowed slowly, and a happy smile appeared on his lips.

"Senior Brother Xiong, please come with me. I'll take you to see this enormous compass."

Liu Heng, holding Xiong Zhou's hand, walked past one busy creature after another towards the [Dao Palace Core Area].

Xiong Zhou looked at the signs above his head, the warning signs he had crossed, and the corresponding methods he had employed, and he was secretly amazed.

"Xiao Liuheng is not simple either; he actually has the authority to directly enter the core area of ​​the Wanmu Dao Palace."

"Hmm, my luck in the 'Qi Refining World' seems to be quite good."
