Spiritual energy resurgence? My former empress wife has also revived!

"I've become the True Lord of the Cave Mystery!"

Qin Zijun opened her eyes in the quiet room, sensing the changes in her physical body and vital energy.

His body was completely transformed under the tempering of the lightning tribulation, and every inch of his flesh was as translucent as jade.

His Buddha-like bones shone with a faint golden luster, and the twelve major meridians of his body stretched out like a galaxy, with even his internal organs resonating with heaven and earth.

In addition, his soul also underwent a qualitative change, and his divine consciousness spread out like a tide, instantly enveloping the entire Yan Kingdom's palace and even the capital of Yan Kingdom.

Even the distant mountains, vegetation, and all living things were clearly reflected in his perception. With his aura locked on, killing someone from a distance of thousands of miles was no problem.

A glint flashed in Qin Zijun's eyes, and a faint trace of the Great Dao Law flowed within them.

With a thought, the wisp of law energy coiled around his fingertips.

If he so desires, a single stroke of his finger can tear through the void, possessing the power to shatter the heavens and the earth, and the wonder to seize the life force of all things.

When this law flows between his eyes and soul, Qin Zijun gains the ability to see through all mysteries and foresee all opportunities.

This is the True Lord of the Cave Profound Realm, the first of the three realms!

"With my current strength, I could defeat an Outer Realm expert in a single move."

"Even Daoist techniques and supernatural powers below the Profound Realm are ineffective against me. I can comprehend the mysteries of all laws in heaven and earth. This is the power of cultivators in the upper three realms—truly terrifying!"

Qi Xingyan, who was previously appointed as an outer realm official, was not even in the Qi Kingdom, which further weakened him.

Even so, when Qin Zijun fought him, she relied on her innate Buddha-like bones and it took her several rounds to kill him.

Of course, this is also due to Qin Zijun's lack of experience in combat.

But now,

Even when facing a true Outer Realm expert, even at the peak of the Outer Realm, Qin Zijun could break all their supernatural abilities and techniques simply by standing there and looking at them. With a single finger, he could shatter the Dao Domain of the world.

The higher one's cultivation level, the greater the gap between each level becomes. So-called cross-border battles or relying on numbers are useless in the face of true cultivation levels.

If people are useful, then why should I cultivate the Tao or the Dharma?

Qin Zijun silently watched the wisp of law energy at her fingertips.

This wisp of law energy is the most important thing that comes with advancing to the Profound Realm; it means coming into contact with the true Great Dao.

If this insignificant aura of law is strengthened to its limit, connected with heaven and earth, and combined with them, one can cultivate to the eighth 'Dao Lord Realm', or 'Buddha Lord Realm'.

This realm represents true mastery of a fundamental law of heaven and earth; under the power of the Great Dao, all living beings perish.

Unfortunately, Qin Zijun's aura of law was too weak, like a premature baby, born with congenital deficiencies.

After all, Qin Zijun's promotion was forced. Although she succeeded, she lost the possibility of further promotion in the future.

His life could only end at the seventh level of the Profound Realm.

"Ha, I don't need to be too greedy. Even if I only barely advance to the Cave Profound Realm, it's still the Cave Profound Realm, which gives me the ability to fight against others of the same realm."

"The fact that the King of Qi covets Miss Jiang's Heavenly Mandate Body so much shows that his cultivation has also reached a bottleneck, which is why he wants to break through with the help of external forces."

"Although he is stronger than me, his strength is only limited, and he is too arrogant and his life has been too smooth."

"With my innate Buddha-like qualities, I am not incapable of defeating him!"

Qin Zijun's eyes flickered as she made up her mind.

"I've heard that if one cultivates to the Taiqing Realm, which is the Tathagata Realm in Buddhism, a single drop of essence blood can stop time. Such a realm is truly unimaginable."

Qin Zijun looked on with longing.

He used the "Book of Immortals for Ten Thousand Generations" to live through ten thousand generations, all for the sake of achieving immortality and becoming a true immortal.

In this life, he actually had a slight chance to cultivate to the state of Tathagata, but he chose to give it up.

"Since I have made my choice, why should I regret it? Others cultivate a life of honor for one lifetime, while I cultivate for ten thousand lifetimes. There is no need to care about temporary gains or losses."

"In this life, I have already exceeded my mission by cultivating to the Dongxuan realm. In the future, as long as I am reborn into a body with cultivation talent, I can grind myself to the Dongxuan realm over time."

This is the biggest difference between Qin Zijun and others.

All other practitioners must reach the pinnacle of their cultivation within one lifetime, or all will cease.

Even though Buddhism and Taoism have methods of reincarnation, those methods cannot actually break the mystery of the womb. In the next life, one is actually a completely different person.

But Qin Zijun is different. The Book of Immortals is a true reincarnation, reborn with her memories intact.

Why is physical talent important in Taoist cultivation?

That's because everyone is practicing Taoism for the first time, and they are all confused about the path ahead. Naturally, the better one's talent, the faster one's progress.

However, someone like Qin Zijun, who resumes cultivation, can easily advance even with poor natural talent.

"After that, I will spend several lifetimes slowly studying and eventually I will be able to cultivate into the 'Dao Master'. If I am lucky enough to encounter another person with exceptional talent in another lifetime, I may be able to directly achieve the Taiqing Realm."

Even if you don't encounter great talent, perseverance will eventually lead to success.

Perhaps it is because Qin Zijun has the opportunity to start over indefinitely that he is always calm and composed, which is in line with the principle of following the natural way.

This is why he was able to achieve this promotion under almost impossible circumstances.

It should be known that such forced promotions are almost always failures.

Qin Zijun collected her thoughts and saw in her consciousness that the Prince of Yan and his family were anxiously waiting outside.

The courtyard where Qin Zijun lived had long been reduced to ashes by the heavenly tribulation.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Tribulation doesn't have a significant impact on external objects; it's mainly directed at him. As long as you're not too close, you won't get hurt.

"Please come in, everyone."

Qin Zijun transmitted her voice.

The King of Yan, the Crown Prince of Yan, and Miss Jiang entered the ruins and met Qin Zijun, who was getting up.

The king and the crown prince were both startled, feeling that Qin Zijun before them was completely different from the one in the past.

He simply stood there, seemingly one with heaven and earth, as still and majestic as a mountain.

The person's life force was elevated, radiating a strange charm that is difficult to describe in words.

Even if Qin Zijun had an ordinary or even ugly appearance, he possessed boundless charm in people's eyes at this moment, which was the sublimation of the Dao.

Not to mention that Qin Zijun was already beautiful, which amplified her charm even further.

Especially when he looked into their eyes, both the king and the crown prince felt a sense of dread, as if they had been seen through and that everything in the world was understood by the man before them.

"Little monk, you succeeded?"

Jiang Zhi didn't care about any of that; she only cared about whether her little monk was alright.

She ran up to Qin Zijun and touched him up and down, as if afraid that he was missing a piece of flesh.

Qin Zijun smiled gently and said, "Thanks to Miss Jiang, I was fortunate enough to succeed."

Jiang Zhi's bright eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight as she exclaimed with delight, "This isn't thanks to me; it's because you, little monk, are the most amazing!"

"Wow, little monk, you seem to have become even more handsome."

Jiang Zhi stared at the handsome face of the young man before her, her heart pounding.

A heartfelt affection filled her heart, almost melting it. The young girl gazed at her beloved husband with adoring eyes, her mind completely blank.

The King of Yan and the Crown Prince exchanged a glance, overjoyed, and bowed simultaneously, saying, "Greetings, True Lord Dongxuan!"

The father and son were so excited that they could hardly believe it.

The State of Yan may be saved!

Although the Qi Kingdom had a strong and powerful army, the most terrifying thing was not those soldiers, but the Qi Kingdom's ruler, a cultivator of the Upper Three Realms, a Dongxuan True Monarch!

At this time, the Yan state also had a Dongxuan Zhenjun, so they might not be unable to defeat the Qi state.

Even if they still cannot defeat the State of Qi, this True Lord can still leave with Zhi'er, and the royal bloodline of the Yan Kingdom will not be cut off.

For the father and son, that's enough!

at this time,

Thump————

A distant, melodious bell rang out.

Qin Zijun looked closely and saw that Kongxiang Temple was located there.

"That is?"

Jiang Zhi lowered her head, her eyes moist, and said softly, "Two days ago, Abbot Liaochen of Kongxiang Temple passed away."

"According to the rules of Kongxiang Temple, the bell must be rung at noon every day for seven consecutive days."

In fact, Qin Zijun's divine sense had already known everything that happened in Kongxiang Temple.

He sighed softly and murmured, "Master has passed away. I didn't even get to see him one last time. I'm so unfilial."

Jiang Zhi held Qin Zijun's large hand tightly with her ten fingers and said softly, "If Master knew that you, little monk, had achieved the Dongxuan cultivation, he would be very proud of you."

Qin Zijun grasped Jiang Zhi's soft, snow-white hand in return, her tone gentle: "Yes, what Master desires most in this life is for me to cultivate to the Dongxuan realm, or even to become a Buddha."

"Although I took a shortcut, I can still say that I fulfilled my master's wish."

"Next, I will uphold my master's other wish: to ensure that the lineage of Kongxiang Temple is not severed!"

……

The news that the State of Qi had dispatched an army of 300,000 to the State of Yan quickly spread throughout Yan.

The ruler of Yan had long been prepared for this, and the entire Yan people were united in their hatred of the enemy, and they managed to assemble an elite army of 30,000 men.

Soldiers in the world of cultivation are not ordinary people who can become soldiers.

Ordinary people who join the army can only manage local security.

The truly elite troops are all cultivators. Even if these cultivators are only at the Body Tempering Realm, they still possess Qi Sensing, which allows them to contend with other cultivator armies.

With 30,000 against 300,000, no matter how you look at it, Qi has the advantage. Even if Yan has the geographical advantage, it will surely be destroyed.

Even so, the fiercely independent people of Yan, seeing their ruler suddenly display such great talent and ambition, fought bravely and desperately to support him.

If the ruler of Qi were to persuade Yan to surrender, it is estimated that some people in Yan would waver and choose to surrender.

However, the ruler of Qi had already issued an order to kill every Yan citizen and not allow anyone to surrender.

In this situation, everyone has to do everything they can to survive.

Thirty thousand troops marched to Tianqian Pass, the border between Yan and Qi. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the only place that could stop Qi's 300,000-strong army.

Qin Zijun moved along with the army.

Youthful spirit, living up to the prime of life.

It has now reached the Dongxuan realm and is about to shock the world!
