Immortal Demonic Path

Chapter 255 The Great Dao Leads the Way, One Qi Transforms into Immortality

Li Changsheng successfully entered the Immortal Dao Academy in Dongyun City and became the administrator of the library.

Inside the library, besides him, there were several elderly men guarding the place, all of whom possessed the cultivation level of the peak of the Yang God realm.

Li Changsheng easily took control of them and began searching through historical records.

He picked up a mysterious historical text and began to read it.

Historical records indicate that the current Huangyu has existed for nine thousand years, and the ruler of the Heavenly Court is the Huangyu Heavenly Emperor.

Before the Emperor Huangyu, there were many successive emperors, some of whom were not recorded in the books.

One name, however, caught his attention—the Sun Emperor, Yang Wushang!

The Sun Emperor Yang Wushang was an extremely powerful emperor who resolved the crisis in the Heavenly Court and destroyed a celestial kingdom with two celestial immortals.

Unfortunately, the time that Yang Wushang lived in is too long to be verified.

"Yang Wushang, you've already successfully conceived so early?"

Li Changsheng looked at the book and realized that he was born too late.

However, the existence of Yang Wushang's records proves that he did not go to another world.

As you continue reading, you'll find the Heavenly Court situated amidst the stars, standing alongside numerous celestial kingdoms.

"Numerous immortal kingdoms?" Li Changsheng's lips twitched. This really is a powerful new era.

Fortunately, I chose to keep a low profile. If I had rushed straight into the starry sky as soon as I came out of seclusion, I probably would have died a terrible death.

Although the Great Dao Sacred Embryo is very strong, these immortal kingdoms may have beings who surpass even the Heavenly Immortals.

Li Changsheng didn't know if he could fight against beings who surpassed Celestial Immortals, nor did he know what the next realm of Celestial Immortals was.

"Let's play it safe for a while longer. I have plenty of time."

Li Changsheng pondered to himself that he couldn't be too hasty. He had already survived a great era, and he couldn't afford to make a mistake in this new era.

It's a good opportunity to take a look at the cultivation methods of this era, learn about their cultivation scriptures, and see if we can refine a cultivation method for the Celestial Immortal realm.

Unfortunately, the historical records of Xuanhuang did not provide much information about those immortal kingdoms, only mentioning that they existed alongside the Heavenly Court.

He began to look through other books, which contained accounts of the rest of the world.

The Dao Realm, the Buddhist Realm, the Demon Realm, and the Monster Realm—unfortunately, they were all established by unfamiliar immortals.

  

He didn't know any of these founders.

He saw the records about the Eternal Heaven Realm and was surprised. This Eternal Heaven Realm was actually a magic gate for planting the Dao Heart.

The Celestial Venerable of Longevity received the inheritance of the Ancestor of Longevity, learned the Dao Heart Seed Demon, and cultivated himself into a Celestial Immortal.

Unfortunately, the Celestial Realm of Immortality suffered a purge for some unknown reason, and although it has recovered, there are no celestial immortals left.

"How did this Celestial Venerable of Longevity learn the art of planting demonic seeds in one's heart?"

Li Changsheng pondered.

I was still asleep at the time, so it was impossible for the Dao Heart Seed magic gate to be transmitted, unless... Yang Wushang!

He himself gave Yang Wushang the Dao Heart Seed Demon Cultivation Method.

"I didn't expect that Yang Wushang would still remember his title of Dao Ancestor."

Li Changsheng sighed softly and said, "I just don't know if Yang Wushang is still alive."

He did not grant Yang Wushang much lifespan. The moment the conception was successful, the connection was severed, and Yang Wushang no longer enjoyed the endless vitality and nourishment.

If you calculate the time, even if Yang Wushang surpassed the Celestial Immortal, he might not have survived until now.

Unless, he obtained a miraculous elixir that could extend his lifespan considerably.

"In this new era, only I remain."

Li Changsheng put down his book and fell into deep thought: "I wonder what has become of the inheritances I sent out before I woke up."

Before the Holy Embryo took human form, he already possessed consciousness and sent out many Chaos Dao Scriptures.

Although those Taoist scriptures can only lead to becoming a true immortal, each realm is developed to its extreme, and all are great supernatural powers of chaos.

If one isn't stupid, it's not impossible to obtain the celestial arts and become a celestial being in the future.

"I just don't know if these cultivators will acknowledge me as the Ancestor of Longevity."

Li Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, "Now that the Dao Heart Demon Seed is everywhere, it can no longer be used casually."

Since the destruction of the Eternal Heaven Realm, the Dao Heart Seed Demon has spread, and almost all the immortals have learned it.

In this situation, if I continue to use the magic gate of the Dao Heart Seed, I am very likely to be discovered.

He continued to consult books and also saw information about the innate talents and immortality of this era.

Immortal roots are generally born from the descendants of immortals, but there are also some special beings who are nurtured by immortal energy at birth.

Those with immortal roots are naturally in harmony with heaven and earth and can easily comprehend the great Dao of heaven and earth.

Upon seeing this, Li Changsheng fell into deep thought: "Isn't this the path of celestial beings and gods on earth? It's just that they've formed immortal roots."

He could create such immortal roots with ease.

"Let me see if the Immortal Academy has any disciples who have received my teachings," Li Changsheng said thoughtfully.

With a thought, the various beings within the Immortal Academy appeared in his mind.

A young girl appeared in his mind, dressed in a blue Taoist robe, exuding dragon might and a faint trace of chaotic energy.

The Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture!

"What about the entire Dongtian City?" Li Changsheng pondered, sensing the entire Dongtian City once more.

Unfortunately, there are no inheritors of his teachings in Dongtian City, only the girls from the Immortal Academy.

The Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture has achieved some success, having already reached the Yin God level, which is quite impressive.

After all, this little dragon is not very old.

His physical attributes were far superior to those of Ao Yu from his era. It's a pity, though, that we don't know if Ao Yu is still alive.

"Then you shall begin the era of the Longevity Dao Ancestor!" Li Changsheng said with anticipation.

This time, he won't hide anymore.

Regardless of whether Liu Wuyou is alive or dead, he will go to find Liu Wuyou.

Worried about his own lack of strength, he decided to train a few more disciples so they could venture into the starry sky together.

He wanted to usher in a new era and see what was really happening in the immortal realm.

If even the foundation of the Great Dao Holy Embryo cannot solve everything, then it would be better to just die.

Of course, before I have enough strength, I still have to stay behind the scenes.

After making the decision, Li Changsheng settled down to read books in the library, including some basic books, to gain a fundamental understanding of the era.

It must be said that the new era has progressed. The basic techniques are much more refined than in their time, and the details are handled very well.

The teaching method of the Immortal Academy is also to encourage disciples to reach their full potential in each realm.

Even Dao Yuan needs to be repeatedly refined until it can no longer be condensed.

To his surprise, there was even a rune path.

Condensing runes, imprinting them upon oneself, and pioneering the Way of Runes.

According to the records, the previous Heavenly Emperor followed the path of runes and cultivated himself into a Heavenly Immortal.

"How could the Great Dao of Runes have been passed down?" Li Changsheng fell into deep thought. He had not handed it over to Yang Wushang.

Is it a remnant from the great calamity of heaven and earth, or did Wutian and the others return?

"It seems that I can only find out these things by going to the Heavenly Court, but given my identity, I won't go for now."

Li Changsheng shook his head.

If someone claims to be the Ancestor of Immortality, the most likely outcome is that they will be captured and interrogated about their cultivation methods.

As for the Heavenly Emperor bowing down in reverence?

I don't harbor such expectations. I have no feelings for these Heavenly Emperors, and besides, they are basically all at the Heavenly Immortal realm.

Some of the former Heavenly Emperors are still alive, and it is estimated that they have surpassed the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Li Changsheng found another book about supernatural powers.

"Ancient Great Divine Powers: Five-Colored Divine Light, Yin and Yang Qi, Laws of Heaven and Earth, Six Paths of Reincarnation, Battle Against Heaven and Earth, The Great Sun Illuminates the Starry Sky..."

Looking at the ancient divine powers recorded in front of him, Li Changsheng was stunned for a moment.

No matter how you look at it, it's all about Niu Wendao, Sun Chengdao, and Wutian's supernatural powers.

"How did their supernatural powers come to be passed down? Are there remnants, or did they return?"

Li Changsheng thought to himself.

These supernatural abilities are their trademarks; someone must have found some of them, or perhaps they have returned!

Unfortunately, these supernatural abilities were not labeled, and the creators of these abilities were not described in much detail.

Putting down the list of supernatural powers, Li Changsheng continued reading other books, searching for clues about the previous era.

Unfortunately, no further clues were found, so they could only look into cultivation methods.

As night fell, the library remained open, but Li Changsheng left and returned to his residence.

Through these old fellows who had access to the library, he acquired a separate residence with pavilions, rockeries, bridges, and flowing water—it was quite nice.

Sitting quietly in the courtyard, Li Changsheng's fingertips emanated chaotic energy as he manipulated the void's Dao patterns: "Enter the dream."

Inside the Immortal Academy, a dragon girl who was meditating suddenly felt her eyelids grow heavy and she was extremely tired.

In a daze, the dragon girl found herself in the ocean.

The sea is shrouded in mist, brimming with spiritual energy.

The girl couldn't help but reveal her true form: a golden dragon, which swam freely in the sea, stirring up waves.

She hasn't returned to the sea in a long time.

Here, she felt that everything was real, especially the exhilarating feeling of swimming.

"Ao Yue".

A call came from the thick celestial mist.

"Who?" Ao Yue was startled, her mind clearing somewhat. "Wait, wasn't I cultivating? Why am I suddenly here?"

Buzz

While he was pondering, the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture within his body began to circulate on its own.

"Is the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture urging me to go there?"

Ao Yue's eyes widened. Could it be her dragon clan elder?

After hesitating for a moment, Ao Yue still chose to enter the immortal mist. Since she couldn't figure it out, she might as well go and take a look.

Many elders in the clan have cultivated the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture and have never encountered such a situation or any problems.

As they entered the dense immortal mist, the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture circulated faster, and a sense of resonance arose within them.

A moment later, a white jade staircase appeared in the celestial mist, upon which stood a purple palace, shrouded in a hazy, chaotic aura.

The call came from inside the purple palace.

A strange tremor rose in Ao Yue's heart, and she quickly transformed into human form and headed towards the white jade steps.

Everything went smoothly and there were no problems.

As Ao Yu arrived at the palace, a sudden realization dawned on him. He activated the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture and pushed open the palace door.

Buzz

As the palace doors opened, the interior was empty, with only a futon and a portrait hanging on the wall.

The portrait of a young Taoist priest gave her an unprecedented sense of antiquity.

It looks like an ancient painting that has been passed down from ancient times to the present!

"Where is this?" Ao Yue asked, looking around the palace with a puzzled expression.

Buzz

The next moment, within the palace, chaotic energy permeated the air, the void twisted, and celestial music drifted from the void:

"Lying high above the nine layers of clouds, I attain the true Dao on my futon. Beyond the mysteries of heaven and earth, I shall be the supreme master."

From chaos arose Taiji, from which Yin and Yang and the Four Symbols followed. One Dao was passed down to three friends, and two teachings emerged: Buddhism and Demonism. The Great Dao leads all, and the One Qi transforms into longevity.

As the celestial music faded, a young Taoist priest slowly materialized in the void, and a futon appeared in the void for the man to sit on.

Ao Yue was shocked; the man in front of her looked exactly like the portrait!

Ao Yue looked at the person before her cautiously and respectfully asked, "May I ask who you are, senior?"

"I was conceived by the Great Dao. In the ancient times of this world, some people revered me as the Ancestor of Longevity," the young Daoist said indifferently.

"The Ancestor of Immortality? You are the Ancestor of Immortality?" Ao Yue stared at the young Daoist in shock, her voice trembling. "You, you, you've lived from ancient times to the present?"

"It should be even more ancient than what you call 'ancient times'," the young Taoist said calmly.

"Even older than ancient times?" Ao Yue was stunned. How long would that be?

How is that possible!

Even the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court couldn't possibly live this long!

The young Taoist said calmly, "The Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture within you was thrown into the sea when I awoke some time ago."

Ao Yu was stunned. Indeed, the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture was a jade pendant that a certain ancestor of the dragon race found while playing in the sea. The pendant was passed down and also mentioned the Longevity Dao Ancestor.

"Besides the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture, there are many other scriptures, such as the Chaos Five Elements Dao Scripture, the Chaos Supreme Mystery Scripture, and the Chaos Profound Heaven Scripture."

Li Changsheng said calmly, "These were all created when I was bored. I threw them into the sea as a way of bestowing opportunities upon all living beings of this era."

He threw out a whole bunch of legacy items, all of them modified versions.

Although it's shameless to plagiarize the poem of Hongjun Daozu, it works as long as it's useful.

Taoism, Buddhism, and demonism were not created by him, but they were improved by him, and there was a break in the lineage. Who can verify this?

If Sun Chengdao and the others are found, they will only side with Li Changsheng, thus confirming Li Changsheng's identity as the Dao Ancestor.

"Dragon Clan disciple Ao Yue pays respects to the Dao Ancestor." Ao Yue immediately knelt down.

Regardless of whether the person before me is truly the Immortal Dao Ancestor, whose strength is unfathomable and who also has a connection with the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Scripture, it's definitely the right thing to do to pay homage first.

Li Changsheng's face showed a look of reminiscence: "Long ago, I once raised a dragonfish, which transformed into a dragon and became a jiaolong. Unfortunately, they all left."

"The dragon fish transformed into a dragon? And left?" Ao Yue was stunned for a moment, then asked cautiously, "Dao Ancestor, you said they all left, who are they? Where did they go?"

"There are many beings, including some of my disciples. The Six Paths of Reincarnation in this era were likely created by my disciples."

Li Changsheng recalled, "In ancient times, he was known as the Great Sage Wutian."

"The Six Paths of Reincarnation was created by a disciple of the Dao Ancestor?" Ao Yue asked in shock.

"Nothing surprising, just the cycle of reincarnation," Li Changsheng said calmly. "That five-colored divine light is a divine ability I passed on to another disciple, as are the yin and yang energies."

咕咚

Ao Yue swallowed hard, the shock in her heart written all over her face.

Her body trembled slightly as she forcibly suppressed her excitement: "Dao, Dao Ancestor, your disciple Ao Yue begs for your mercy."

If the Dao Ancestor could casually pass on an ancient divine power to me, who in the Immortal Academy would be my match?
