Covering the Heavens: Its fortune endures forever, sweeping across all heavens.

Qin Tian shook his head with a wry smile: "But it's not a big problem. I just need to absorb some more source energy and temper my previous realm again."

This isn't a fundamental problem; it's more like needing to restore one's divine power after a life-or-death battle.

However, the required amount is quite large; if one relies solely on daily absorption of spiritual energy, it would probably take a thousand years.

However, given his current level of understanding, he cannot directly draw energy from the universe.

"So, in the end, we still need a sufficient source!"

"All ancient holy bodies are destined to worry about the source, right?" Qin Tian scratched his head with some distress.

Qin Tian sighed and calculated in his mind, "I estimate that I will need another ten million catties of source."

His source was exhausted when he broke through the four poles.

Other ruthless individuals' successors don't have this problem. They have so many primal energies within their bodies that need to be balanced, and they desperately try to suppress the primal energies of the Holy Body to prevent them from exerting too much power.

You wouldn't feel that way.

Qin Tian, ​​however, was different; he wanted to bring the essence of the Sacred Body to its fullest potential.

However, the body lacks sufficient energy, and the source energy absorbed during the transformation has long been digested, making it insufficient to advance further.

Qin Tian calculated, "Once I've replenished my energy, with my mastery of secret realm techniques, I shouldn't be weaker than a true Ancient Sacred Body."

"But... where am I going to get this source?" Qin Tian was somewhat melancholy, never expecting that he would have to worry about sources again.

"Continue to rob the source fields and earn some blood and sweat resources?"

"This seems like a good idea. One million for one source field, ten source fields would be enough to raise the funds?"

However, a million catties of source stones in one source field is only the best possible outcome.

If a source field can yield 100,000 jin of source material, that would be quite good.

"No, I've thought of a good idea." Qin Tian's eyes lit up, and he smiled brightly.

“Foolish North Star people.”

Have you ever experienced being fleeced?

"Have you heard of a Ponzi scheme?"

"Hehehe!" Qin Tian laughed wildly, with the faint glow of streetlights shining behind him.

"Could this kid be possessed by the ghost spirit of the Primordial Ancient Mine?" Black Emperor asked suspiciously.

He was still waiting for Qin Tian to find the Innate Dao Embryo, draw the Innate Dao Array, and achieve the Acquired Sacred Body Dao Embryo.

"But if I do this, won't I get beaten up?" After laughing, Qin Tian hesitated.

"I guess many people hate me so much they want to tear me apart."

"So... I should prepare some amazing escape techniques!"

Qin Tian thought about it seriously: "Before causing trouble, think about your escape route first."

What if we get cornered?

"So... I need to find an unparalleled way to escape."

Qin Tian could imagine that if he were to create a Ponzi scheme in the future, many people would inevitably hunt him down.

Chapter 84 The Second Life, The Secret to Rebirth, Primordial Qi

Qin Tian needs to make sure he runs fast enough.

Qin Tian glanced at the Black Emperor and thought to himself, "I think... the Xingzi Secret is very suitable."

Just as Qin Tian was about to invite Jiang Taixu to the Sacred Cliff to explore the Nine Secrets.

Jiang Taixu suddenly spoke up, saying, "I'm going into seclusion to try and live out my second life."

These words shocked everyone.

Jiang Taixu remained remarkably calm, clearly having already considered this. After helping Qin Tian obtain the Ancient Sacred Body, he too needed to consider his own lifespan.

After being trapped in Purple Mountain for four thousand years, even as a Great God-King, his lifespan was almost over.

The Medicine King given by the Beginningless Bell was then given to Fairy Caiyun. Now he can only take a gamble and use the longevity essence that he has accumulated over the years to live another life.

"King Jiao, I would like to borrow the Hall of Immortality," Jiang Taixu said kindly.

"God King, please do as you please!" The Azure Dragon King was very magnanimous, indicating that he would use it as he pleased.

Jiang Taixu said, "The passage of time here is almost nonexistent, which is perfect for me to transform into my second life."

"Brother Taixu!" Fairy Caiyun's eyes showed worry, fearing that he would disappear again.

"It's all my fault. If you had taken that king of herbs back then..."

“Caiyun, I have confidence!” Jiang Taixu interrupted Caiyun Fairy’s words and reassured her.

But Fairy Caiyun was still worried. Throughout history, very few people have been able to live a second life on their own, even if you include the Great Emperor.

Qin Tian had great confidence in Jiang Taixu, but said, "Don't worry, just trust the God King."

Jiang Taixu also held Fairy Caiyun's jade hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, Caiyun, I will definitely not leave you again this time."

Jiang Taixu's tone was firm and spirited, overlapping with the image of the young god-king in Fairy Caiyun's memory.

"I was confident that I could transform into a second life back in Purple Mountain. Now that I have met you, I have something to hold onto in my heart, and the chances of transforming into a second life have greatly increased."

"Yes, I believe you, Brother Taixu!"

Qin Tian and the others left, creating a quiet environment for Jiang Taixu.

In the original story, Fairy Caiyun died and her cultivation vanished, leaving Jiang Taixu heartbroken. Even under such circumstances, Jiang Taixu was able to transform into a second life.

Now that he has something to hold onto and a reason to live out his second life, he naturally transforms into his second life much faster than in the original story.

Fairy Caiyun looked back every few steps, fearing that this seclusion might be their last, and said anxiously, "Brother Taixu!"

Jiang Taixu smiled gently: "Don't worry, once I live my second life and break through to the realm of sages, I will take you to see the magnificence of the mountains and rivers!"

"Old Jiang is no ordinary man!" Black Emperor said seriously, "By living a second life on his own, he surpasses many Great Emperors and Ancient Emperors."

"Indeed, if there were another elixir of immortality, the God-King could live another lifetime. A God-King who has lived three lifetimes would surely be able to attain the Dao and become an Emperor." Qin Tian said with a sigh.

If Jiang Taixu had not fallen in the darkness and turmoil, he would surely have become another Great Emperor Taixu, no less powerful than Gai Jiuyou.

Just as the Black Emperor said, he ultimately lived out his second life through his own efforts.

If Jiang Taixu achieves an alternative path to enlightenment in this lifetime, he can live for at least ten thousand years.

If we include the years of his first life, he has already surpassed some great emperors. If he were to take the elixir of immortality and live a third life...

Another ten thousand years have passed. Such a long time has been spent on cultivation, so his strength is definitely not weak. Among ordinary Great Emperors, his strength is definitely among the top.

"God King Ancestor, Jiang Yi has arrived!"

A middle-aged man rushed over, looked left and right but didn't see anyone, so he asked the Azure Dragon King, "Brother Azure Dragon, where is my ancestor?!"

"Senior God King has gone into seclusion and is currently undergoing a breakthrough," the Azure Dragon King said with envy.

"breakthrough?!"

"Could it be..." Jiang Yi asked with a look of surprise.

"It should be pretty much the same," the Azure Dragon King nodded.

Jiang Taixu was already a Great Perfection God King. If he were to live another life and break through his realm, it would be self-evident what realm he wanted to reach.

Jiang Yi said in a trembling voice, "An ancient sage!"

"I never imagined that such a thing would be born right before my eyes."

The Azure Dragon King slapped his forehead and said, "Oh right, I haven't introduced Brother Jiang Yi yet."

"These three are the people who came here with the God-King."

"This is Fairy Caiyun, the former confidante of the God King."

The Azure Dragon King introduced, "These two are friends of the God King. It was these two young heroes who rescued the God King!"

"Jiang Yi, a descendant of the God-King, thanks you both for saving my ancestor." Jiang Yi quickly cupped his hands in thanks and said, "If there is anything I, Jiang Yi, can do to help you in the future, please feel free to ask. I will go through fire and water for you!"

Then he bowed deeply to Fairy Caiyun and said, "Jiang Yi greets his ancestral grandmother."

"Yi'er, you don't need to be so polite." Fairy Caiyun smiled and quickly helped him up.

Qin Tian watched this scene and thought to himself, "This bandit is quite adept at handling things!"

Seeing this, one can feel the kindness of the grandfather and the filial piety of the grandchildren.

Qin Tian turned his gaze to the Hall of Immortality, where Jiang Taixu was sitting cross-legged, adjusting his state.

Although Qin Tian was in the outside world, his Void Eye was enough to overlook the entire small world.

The experience of a god-king living a second life will be of great help to Qin Tian in the future.

One can become an immortal after nine lifetimes in the mortal world; all the cultivation and combat power accumulated life after life are ultimately illusory.

Without immortality, it is all just a fleeting dream.

The so-called path to immortality through nine lifetimes is essentially a process of continuously accumulating immortal essence.

In the past, the true immortal path that prevailed in the world required the complete universe to achieve, because the achievement of a true immortal required absorbing a massive amount of longevity essence, combining it with one's own essence, energy, and spirit, and condensing an immortal essence as the foundation of longevity and the basis of a true immortal.

The next step in cultivation is to absorb the essence of longevity to increase the immortal essence within one's body.

Until one can withstand the ravages of time solely through one's own immortal essence, one reaches the pinnacle of true immortality, gazing upon the realm of immortal kings, which is also the realm of quasi-immortal kings.

But now, the universe has changed, and immortal beings no longer emerge in the world, leading to the extinction of the true immortal path.

Even living immortals, before reaching the quasi-immortal king realm, need to absorb the essence of longevity in order to maintain their immortality.

Having lost the essence of immortality, a true immortal is like a fish in water that has suddenly come to land. Without water, they will die sooner or later; it's just a matter of time.

In the chaotic ancient era, the gates to the Immortal Realm were closed. The remaining immortal beings unanimously created forbidden zones to capture the remaining essence of immortality in order to barely prevent their immortal realm from falling further.

Therefore, after an era, they could only barely maintain the state of remnant immortals, because there was very little remaining immortal essence in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths at that time. Not to mention recovering the immortal essence shattered by Kunpeng, even maintaining immortality was extremely difficult, requiring long-term slumber.

Later, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths merged into one, and the heavens cleaved humanity in two. Even cultivators from the Immortal Realm were unwilling to come, because the essence of immortality no longer existed in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Activities in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths require the consumption of the longevity essence stored in the body. Once damaged in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the cultivation level will regress at best, and at worst, the immortal essence will be destroyed by a Heavenly Slash, turning the immortal into a crippled immortal.

From this point on, the mortal and immortal realms were separated, and the path of true immortality vanished.

Then came the present era, where the immortal path in the mortal world flourished. Using one's body as a seed, one could create one's own universe in the mortal world, seeking not external paths but internal ones. Once the essence of longevity accumulated within one's body reached a certain level, one could live a second life.

Lifetime after life, they survived in this mortal world, accumulating celestial essence.

If there is no essence of immortality in the vast universe, then I will produce my own essence of immortality.

Viewing the human body as a vast universe, it produces its own mortal essence until it accumulates enough to sustain itself and resist the erosion of time.

At that time, time will not affect me; heaven and earth will decay, but I will remain; the sun and moon will perish, but I will not perish.

That is, the immortal of the mortal world.

Even if the world changes again, it cannot affect the Immortal of the Mortal Realm, because he himself is an Immortal Realm of the Mortal Realm that produces its own essence of immortality.

Therefore, a mortal immortal can rival a quasi-immortal king after achieving the first level of cultivation.

And everything originates from this essence of immortality.

Therefore, Qin Tian wanted to see clearly the God King's transformation process, to see what the so-called essence of immortality was, and how to activate these essences of immortality to live a second life.

To accumulate experience for the second incarnation in the future.

After all, the original work did not explain the transformation in detail.

Twenty thousand years passed, the Heavenly Emperor grew old, and then with a boom, he rose from the endless blood and energy, and was reborn as a second incarnation.

Qin Tian could see the essence of immortality within Jiang Taixu's body through his divine eyes.

"These are the essences of immortality?! They were honed by Jiang Taixu in Purple Mountain. Am I also going to seal them away for four thousand years?"

Qin Tian saw the essence of immortality gathered together, a thing that was difficult to describe in words.

He doesn't have that substance in his body.

"No, it's not that there aren't any, it's just that there are very few, very few."

Qin Tian refuted this in his mind, then looked inward and found some similar substances, but they were so rare that he didn't notice them at first.
