Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

Traveling through the Underworld:

The two encountered several more cities.

When the king had enough time, he would go in to preach and refine his magical power.

When time is tight, just skip ahead.

During this time, he changed Sumali's identity to that of a human companion; however, the creatures of the underworld did not accept this, and no powerful underworld figure gave her an identity token.

This infuriated Sumari: "Just you wait, once I'm dead and fall into the underworld, I'll definitely deal with them properly."

"Let them know that I hold grudges too!"

Wang Quan chuckled: "The underworld is constantly changing, so the chances of encountering them again are extremely low."

Sumali grumbled, but in the end, fearing it would delay the trip, she obediently put the rope on her hands: "You'd better not treat me like a human being!"

"Let's speed things up!"

"Um!"

More than ten days later, the two arrived at the first landmark.

The landmarks here do not overlap with the real world or the second layer of the world, and the two of them do not know where they will appear after leaving here.

The two exchanged a glance and stepped out of the underworld.

With the next breath, the world changed, and they returned to the real world.

The two looked around and found themselves atop a snow-capped mountain; as far as the eye could see, there was only an endless expanse of snow-capped peaks.

Based on the directions and the changing seasons, the two deduced the landmarks and calculated the current representative position. They couldn't help but gasp in shock.

because:

Their location was far too far from where they would enter the underworld.

So far that if they were to transform into streams of malevolent energy and fly, it would take them over thirty years of non-stop flight to reach their destination.

They crossed the distance of more than thirty years in just over ten days by passing through the underworld.

"This underworld is truly mysterious!" Sumali exclaimed in amazement.

Wang Quan sighed, "If it weren't for its mystique, there wouldn't be so many people traveling between the underworld and the netherworld!"

Sumali took a deep breath and examined her identity token. "Our routes diverge from here on out. Farewell!"

"Let's keep in touch after we get to the far west."

The two had already exchanged communication tools, so as long as they didn't die on the road, they would naturally be able to contact each other again.

"Um!"

Wang Quan waved goodbye, and the two parted ways.

call out!

Sumali transformed into a streak of fire, soaring into the sky and hurtling away.

Wang Quan sat atop the snow-capped mountain, using magic to explore the mountain's veins and observing the surrounding feng shui.

According to his identity token, he has to wait here for half a day before he can set off.

Having nothing else to do, he decided to create an unusual restricted area here.

This restricted area, from its construction to its collapse, may never encounter or drive away any abnormality.

But since he had nothing better to do, he figured he might as well make some casual arrangements.

Within half a day, a malevolent aura descended from the sky.

The malevolent aura dissipated, and a magnificent, striped tiger descended.

The tiger rolled on the ground and then transformed into a human.

He took out his identity token and revealed his identity to Wang Quan: "I am a cultivator of the Beast Path: Tiger Daoist."

"May I ask your name, friend?"

Wang Quan pulled out his token: "I am the Flower-Scattering Taoist of the Drowning Path."

After verifying their identities and checking each other's routes, the two agreed on three rules and set off together.

The second layer of the world is the opening, maintenance, and security zone.

The two traveled together for over a month before parting ways, just like Sumali.

April.....

Wang Quan's companion was a female nun from the Path of the Golden Flow.

This female nun was exceptionally beautiful, possessed a refined demeanor, and had a graceful figure.

Wang Quan asked the other party if they were willing to study the Taoist scriptures together.

The female cultivator chuckled and said, "Although you are not bad either, I already have a Daoist partner; our relationship is very stable, and we don't like outsiders interfering."

Upon hearing this, Wang Quan suddenly understood how Sumari felt at the time.

Although he was rejected, he quickly adjusted his mindset and treated the female cultivator as an ordinary friend.

The two traveled together and continued their journey, repeating the same things they had done before.

At this time, the safe zones they arrived at were mostly the unorthodox and unorthodox lower-level safe zones.

Their arrival aroused the curiosity of some monks in the safe zone.

Many cultivators from the second layer of the world thought their place had become an isolated island; now, seeing the arrival of a Foundation Establishment cultivator from outside, their hearts were filled with hope.

At the end of the month, the two arrived at the landmark in the real world.

This is a city suspended in the air, covering an area of ​​hundreds of miles, but it is not populated by many people, and is mostly inhabited by puppets and other creatures.

A puppet led the two straight to the city center, where a blue vortex was slowly rotating.

The two learned through their identity tokens that the vortex was a teleportation device.

The two placed their identity tokens on the altar to the side. After the identity tokens were scanned by magic, the vortex changed.

Wang Quan punched the female nun hard: "Farewell!"

The nun nodded: "We'll contact each other again when I reach the far west!"

"kindness!"

call out!

Wang Quan plunged into the vortex, and then his consciousness blurred for a moment.

When he regained consciousness, he found himself in another city.

At this moment, a bald, muscular cultivator stared straight at him: "Brother, are you a heretic or a member of the orthodox sect? I am Niu Dali, a cultivator from the Flower Sect."

Wang Quan smiled: "I am the Drowning Lane King Quan!"

After verifying identities and establishing three rules, Niu Dali smiled and asked, "Fellow Daoist, would you like to study the Daoist scriptures together?"

Wang Quan: "I still prefer women more!"

Niu Dali smacked his lips: "Actually, comprehending Taoist scriptures isn't about real combat, so why get hung up on gender?"

"Being preoccupied with gender and so-called love will significantly slow down your progress in Taoist cultivation!"

"I'm not picky about food anymore, as long as it helps with my spiritual practice; let me tell you, practicing with someone of the same sex has a unique flavor!"

"Moreover, we come from unorthodox schools, so our foundation is already weak; if we don't work hard now, the gap between us and those orthodox sects will widen even further."

Wang Quan smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind offer!"

"You know so much!"

Niu Dali scratched his head and said with a simple smile, "I didn't know anything about these things before."

"However, the companion I traveled with last time was a cultivator from the Tai Su Sect; he told me all this; it was his teaching that made me realize: studying the Daoist scriptures with someone of the same sex is more interesting and the progress is faster!"

Wang Quan's heart stirred: "What's the name of that Tai Su Sect cultivator?"

Niu Dali reminisced, "Ma Qingqiu!"

"His name is Ma Qingqiu; it's a nice name, and his body is just like it—very light, like a fox fur coat!"

Wang Quan's lips twitched.

May....

July......

October.....

Wang Quan headed straight to the far west, changing his travel companions almost every month.

Although he encountered female nuns a few times during this period, he no longer took the initiative to ask to study Taoist scriptures.

These nuns did not invite him.

On the contrary, several male cultivators casually invited him to join them in comprehending cultivation.

During this time, he also encountered two male cultivators who had dealt with Ma Qingqiu before.

These two male cultivators must have learned a lot from Ma Qingqiu; their rhetoric was so eloquent that it almost tempted him.

Fortunately, he thought of Ying Jiaren, and those beautiful and graceful female cultivators, and then firmly rejected them.
