Chapter 458: The Path to Immortality is Obstructed, Ziwei Doushu
Li Daoxuan stared at the ice sculptures, feeling a little surprised. In fact, he could not fully unleash the power of the Xuanming True Water yet and could only mobilize one tenth of its power.
But even so, cultivators below the Yang God realm were almost powerless to fight back against his Xuanming True Water. Even powerful Yang Gods would be injured if they just touched it, and they might even be frozen to death if they were not careful!
This is the true water of the water god Gonggong, one of the seven sacred waters in mythology.
In addition, Li Daoxuan had another great gain, that is, he had a deeper understanding of the great way of water, and had a trace of the innate power of the water god Gonggong. Rivers, lakes, seas, abysses and swamps all obeyed his orders, just like the king of water.
It was an indescribable magical feeling, as if every river had its own unique will and wanted to communicate with Li Daoxuan.
As long as Li Daoxuan stands in the water, he will gain countless benefits, such as the tremendous force of overturning rivers and seas, endless magic power, and the magical power of self-healing of injuries.
It was not until then that he realized how lucky he was to be able to kill Wuzhiqi. If it were not for Sister Yu's Seal of the Xiaoxiang Water God, which could absorb the flood and separate Wuzhiqi from the water, he would probably not be able to do anything to him.
This is Wuzhiqi, who has been suppressed for thousands of years and whose strength has been greatly weakened.
Of course, if Li Daoxuan were to fight Wuzhiqi again now, he would be confident that he could kill him even without help from others.
Because after obtaining the Xuanming True Water, he is the innate nemesis of all kinds of water monsters!
Wuzhiqi's origin is already high enough. He was bred by the innate power of water. His authority over the great way of water even exceeds that of a real dragon, but he is still inferior to the bloodline of the water god Gonggong.
Theoretically, Li Daoxuan, who possesses Gonggong's true water, can be called the direct descendant of the God of Water. Even if the Water Official Emperor were resurrected and the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas were still alive, they would have to bow their heads .
In addition, Li Daoxuan's three swords, Chixiao, Bailong and Juque, also underwent some miraculous changes after absorbing Wuzhiqi's heart essence and blood. Now the sword spirits are dormant and are quietly transforming.
When they wake up, I believe they will give him a huge surprise.
These were the gains after killing Wuzhiqi, which were extremely amazing and greatly enhanced . However, fortune and disaster go hand in hand, and he almost lost his life this time.
Li Daoxuan greatly underestimated the horror of the Xuanming True Water.
This water is not a magic weapon, but more like a blood inheritance and a natural supernatural power, just like his third eye.
When he first awakened his clairvoyance, he felt extremely painful and it felt like his brain was being torn apart.
The pain of this Xuanming True Water is worse than that of the Heavenly Eye!
The moment he accepted the inheritance, he realized that something was wrong, but at that time even his thoughts were frozen, and he was completely unable to save himself. He could only watch his body being frozen into an ice sculpture by the terrible cold.
Li Daoxuan even had a premonition that the Xuanming True Water had been bound to him. Even though he had the magical power to be reborn by a drop of blood, he would be frozen to death every time he was resurrected until his magic power was exhausted and he died completely.
It was not that the Xuanming True Water intended to harm him, but that the Xuanming True Water was too strong, and he, as its master, had a too weak body to control it at all.
It should be noted that Gonggong, the water god, was descended from the ancestor of witches, transformed from the essence and blood of Pangu, and became a powerful saint in the flesh. Naturally, his natal true water has extremely high requirements for his flesh.
Li Daoxuan practiced the "Five Thunders Nourishing Essence Technique" and was almost at the seventh level. His physical strength could be ranked among the top ten in the world, but it was still too weak to resist the Xuanming True Water.
Fortunately, Chen Ziyu was by Li Daoxuan's side at the time.
She is not only the water god of Xiaoxiang, but most importantly the lotus dharmakaya, born from the innate water-based divine creature. She can help Li Daoxuan share some of the coldness and help him overcome the most difficult life-and-death dangers.
During this process, Li Daoxuan was in a coma most of the time, but Chen Ziyu was awake. She had to endure the excruciating pain of freezing cold, then expel the cold air and continue absorbing it.
It was through this repetitive cycle that Li Daoxuan's life was saved.
Thinking of this, Li Daoxuan felt pity in his heart. He floated down from the sky, stretched out his hand, and a column of water gently surged up, gently lifting out a sleeping woman at the bottom of the lake.
She was wearing a plain light blue long dress, her body was slender and her graceful curves were outlined under the skirt.
Her three thousand strands of black hair fell like a waterfall of clouds, her eyebrows and eyes were delicate as a painting, her skin was as white as ice, and even in sleep, she exuded a cool and elegant temperament.
Li Daoxuan picked her up gently, as if he was afraid of disturbing her sleep.
During this month or so, Sister Yu had consumed too much magic power and endured too much pain in order to help him clear the cold. She was mentally exhausted to the extreme. The moment Li Daoxuan woke up, she could not help but fall into a deep sleep.
The main reason why Li Daoxuan immediately took action to kill the group of evil cultivators who were spying outside was that he didn't want them to disturb Sister Yu's rest.
"National Master , you——"
Just as Wang Bo was about to step forward to communicate with Li Daoxuan, he was stopped by Li Chunfeng.
Li Chunfeng shook his head at him and gestured to keep quiet.
Wang Bo nodded and stood aside waiting quietly.
Li Daoxuan held Chen Ziyu in his arms. Her delicate body seemed boneless and as soft as a cloud, emitting a faint lotus fragrance.
He looked around, then walked to a dead tree and gently put her down. The sunlight seemed to be a little dazzling, and Chen Ziyu's long eyelashes moved slightly.
Li Daoxuan smiled, his eyes gentle. He pinched the wood seal with his hands and activated the wood element magical power. Rays of green light poured into the dead tree.
The next moment, the old tree, which had long been dead, suddenly blossomed with life again. New leaves grew on the bare branches, and soon they became lush and green, forming a canopy that blocked out the sunlight.
Under the shade of the tree, Chen Ziyu seemed to sleep more soundly.
Li Daoxuan stretched out his hand again.
whoosh!
An oil-paper umbrella flew out from the bottom of the lake, glowing with a bright light, and automatically flew into Li Daoxuan's hands. It was Chen Ziyu's companion spiritual treasure, the Lotus Green Luo Umbrella.
This top-grade spiritual treasure is the most precious treasure of the water lineage. Originally, it only took orders from Chen Ziyu, but now Li Daoxuan can also hold it in his hand.
This is just like he can use the Pure Yang Sword Intent to control all the swords in the world. The Xuanming True Water also has an innate appeal to all treasures nurtured by all water veins.
Li Daoxuan placed the Lotus Green Umbrella next to Sister Yu and asked the spirit of the artifact to protect Sister Yu. He looked at her beautiful face while she was sleeping for a while before turning around and walking towards Li Chunfeng and Wang Bo.
"Master, are you injured?"
Wang Bo asked in a low voice.
Li Daoxuan smiled and shook his head.
"That's great. Imperial Master, have you achieved a breakthrough in the Yang God?"
Li Daoxuan was about to speak, but Li Chunfeng suddenly said, "Don't say anything yet."
He threw the abacus in his hand, and the chips of different lengths fell to the ground and melted into the soil and disappeared. Then Li Daoxuan felt that there was some kind of invisible barrier around him.
"This formation can prevent others from prying, now I can tell you."
Li Chunfeng explained.
Li Daoxuan looked at him and said with a smile: "Huang Guanzi, you finally came out of seclusion. It seems that you have gained a lot. Have you mastered the secret technique?"
Li Chunfeng now gave Li Daoxuan a very strange feeling. He seemed to be echoing the stars in the sky. But just standing there, there was an illusory sense of dislocation that made it difficult for people to see through him.
Before, Li Chunfeng went into seclusion to practice the secret art of cutting the sky of the Louguan Taoist lineage. This art, combined with Yuan Tiangang's secret art of repairing the sky, can exert a power similar to the great supernatural power of Tiangang to mediate the creation of nature.
They wanted to use this method to complete the Zhoutian Star Array.
Li Chunfeng said calmly: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."
Li Daoxuan smiled and said, "It seems that your cultivation has improved a lot. In this case, why don't we calculate whether I have become a Yang God?"
Wang Bo waved his hands and said, "Is there any need to calculate this? I can see that the power you just displayed, Imperial Master, is definitely that of a Yang God!"
He was not from a self-taught background, but a direct disciple of the Chu Ma lineage. He had once come into contact with the Yangshen ancestor of his own sect who had failed in his tribulation. To be honest, he vaguely felt that even his own ancestor might not have the aura of a national teacher.
Li Chunfeng looked at Li Daoxuan's face quietly, and his eyes full of wisdom seemed even deeper.
He was good at observing faces and qi, and at this moment he was silently observing Li Daoxuan.
After a moment, he sighed and said, "The brow is in trouble, and the purple energy is low. It seems that the national teacher has not only failed to enter the Yang God, but also caused disasters. The immortal path is blocked, which is really a pity."
The smile on Li Daoxuan's face gradually faded, revealing a hint of solemnity.
"Li Chunfeng is indeed Li Chunfeng. He hit the nail on the head. It's amazing. Although I gained a lot of benefits this time, I didn't enter the Yang God realm. Not only that, it will be even more difficult for me to break through the Yang God realm in the future."
Li Daoxuan frowned.
After he woke up, he realized that he had made a fatal mistake. He should never have extracted the Xuanming True Water before reaching the Yang God realm!
The key to transforming from a Yin God to a Yang God is to accumulate pure Yang Qi, allowing the soul to transform from pure Yin to pure Yang, achieving a qualitative sublimation.
The Xuanming True Water is the most yin and coldest thing in the world. The coldness it contains can even freeze the soul. Li Daoxuan has already cultivated pure Yang Qi. If he accumulates it for a few more years, he will be able to become a great cultivator in the Yang God Realm.
But now all the pure Yang Qi in his body had been suppressed by the coldness of the Xuanming True Water, becoming weak and powerless. No matter how Li Daoxuan practiced, it was difficult to increase it.
This is like trying to start a fire in a cold winter with heavy rain. The difficulty increases countless times!
If Li Daoxuan could extract the Xuanming True Water after cultivating into the Yang God Realm, the problem would not be too big. At that time, his soul would have transformed into a Yang God, and his realm would be stable, like a blazing sun that could not be extinguished even by heavy rain.
But unfortunately, Li Daoxuan at that time was worried about the appearance of Moro and was anxious to improve his strength, so he didn't think too much about it.
In fact, this was the first time he encountered this kind of problem. It turned out that if the reward of the "Demon-Slaying Book" was too high, he might not be able to afford it.
Perhaps this is also the reason why .
It's a pity that Li Daoxuan didn't pay attention to this detail before, which made the Yang Shen Realm that was originally within reach become a frozen bottleneck.
Of course, his combat power has indeed improved a lot, which is beyond doubt, and as his body becomes stronger, he can also unleash more power of the Xuanming True Water.
"Huang Guanzi, then please calculate again, when can I break through the Yangshen realm?"
Li Chunfeng shook his head and sighed.
Li Daoxuan's expression froze. What was going on? Was it possible that he would never be able to enter the Yang Shen realm again in his lifetime?
That would be a huge loss. If he doesn't cultivate into a Yang God, he can't transcend the calamity and become an immortal. If he can't become an immortal, he can't live forever. Then, no matter how strong his fighting power is, what's the use? At most, he can suppress the world for a few hundred years, and then he will turn into a piece of yellow earth.
This is definitely not what he wants!
At this time, Li Chunfeng said slowly: "There are too many causes and effects involved, I can't figure it out."
Li Daoxuan's face darkened and he almost couldn't help but take action.
Huang Guanzi, doesn’t he know that doctors and fortune tellers are not allowed to sigh casually?
The corners of Li Chunfeng's mouth curled up slightly, but soon returned to normal, like a flash in the pan.
He continued: "Although I can't calculate it, I think you can go to the Qingyi Temple in the city to ask."
After a pause, he said, "That lady is far better than me in the art of divination. If she hadn't made plans in advance for this flood, I'm afraid Chang'an would have been in real danger!"
Li Daoxuan nodded. Even if Li Chunfeng didn't say it, he would still go to Qingyi Temple.
Whenever you are in doubt, just ask the Queen Mother. Moreover, after Your Majesty canonized her as the Protector of the Tang Dynasty and led all civil and military officials to worship her at the Fengshan Ceremony, the faith in the Queen Mother has been increasing at an alarming rate. Now, more than a month has passed, and the faith has reached a terrifying level.
The Empress now must have made great progress in her Shinto practice!
The problem that he cannot solve may be solved by the Empress.
After figuring out the key points, Li Daoxuan felt a lot more relaxed. He looked at Li Chunfeng, who was neatly dressed and elegant, smiled slightly, and walked forward to put his arm around his shoulders.
Li Chunfeng's body suddenly stiffened.
"Old Li!"
Li Daoxuan's voice sounded, revealing a hint of ill intention, and no one knew what he was planning.
Li Chunfeng's calm eyes wavered for the first time, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
"Now can we settle the score for you using me to kill those evil monks?"
"Although as the national teacher, it is my duty to kill these evil demons with ulterior motives, but Lao Li, killing them on your own initiative and being used by others to kill are two different concepts, what do you think?"
Li Daoxuan said this with a smile and patted his shoulder.
Hearing this, Li Chunfeng breathed a sigh of relief. He took a step back, took out Li Daoxuan's Three Realms Gourd from his arms, and said, "Don't blame me, Imperial Master. I found this gourd for you, and I also found the forty-nine golden sun needles from Wuzhiqi's stomach and put them in."
Li Daoxuan put away his treasured gourd, casually hung it around his waist, and said with a smile: "It's not enough, this is originally mine."
I thought I could stump Li Chunfeng this time, but I didn't expect Li Chunfeng to take out another thing from his arms. It was an ancient book with four ancient seal characters on it - Zi Wei Dou Shu!
"I calculated that the National Master was interested in learning the art of divination. This book, Ziwei Doushu, is the best secret method of my Louguan Dao. It can be used to observe the stars, predict the mysteries of the heavens, understand human affairs, and calculate ghosts and gods. It has infinite mysteries. So I gave it to the National Master."
After a pause, he added, "This method is after all the secret method of my sect. It's fine for the Imperial Master to practice it himself, but please don't pass it on to others."
Li Daoxuan showed a hint of surprise in his eyes and said, "I was just talking casually. You don't have to give me such a precious secret method."
Li Chunfeng saluted with both hands, bowed and said: "No matter how precious the Zi Wei Dou Shu is, it is not as valuable as the lives of the people of Chang'an. Please accept it, Imperial Master!"
Seeing that he looked very serious, Li Daoxuan did not hesitate and put the ancient book into his arms.
"Well, I have one more thing..."
"Master, I suddenly remembered that His Majesty has something urgent to summon me for. Bye!"
Li Daoxuan wanted to "extort" some more treasures, but Li Chunfeng seemed to have foreseen the future and resigned in a decisive manner. Then he left quickly without looking back, and even stepped into the Seven Star Steps.
"Huang Guanzi, don't leave yet!"
Li Daoxuan shouted loudly, but after hearing this, Li Chunfeng seemed to walk faster.
After he went away, a smile appeared in Li Daoxuan's eyes. This guy, no matter how cunning and calculating you are, you still fell into my trap.
…
A moment later, Li Chunfeng had entered Chang'an City and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really afraid that Li Daoxuan would make more excessive demands. A book called "Purple Star Astrology" had already caused conflicts between him and some elders of Louguan Dao.
Shaking his head, he looked around at the Chang'an City which was beginning to regain its prosperity, with people coming and going on the streets and merchants traveling nonstop. A trace of relief and gratitude appeared in his eyes.
Although the Imperial Master is sometimes not very serious, he is still very reliable at critical moments. If it weren't for the Imperial Master turning the tide this time, by the time he came out, Chang'an City would probably have become a ruin.
Thinking of this, he felt a little more respect for Li Daoxuan.
But as he walked, he began to realize something was wrong, because many people were looking back at him with a look of contempt, and many women were trying to hold back their laughter.
Li Chunfeng subconsciously made calculations with his fingers, and then his expression changed drastically.
He reached his hand behind his back and took off a blank yellow talisman paper. There were no talismans on it, but three lines of large characters.
"This Taoist priest visits a brothel without paying. This Taoist priest visits a brothel without paying. This Taoist priest visits a brothel without paying!"
Three times exactly!
"Hahaha!"
There was a burst of laughter all around, and a little child asked his mother in confusion.
"Mother, what is a brothel?"
"Bah, that's an unclean place. If you learn to be a fake Taoist priest like this in the future, I will break your legs..."
…
Li Chunfeng stood there blankly, his eyes stiff.
For a long while, he stared at the talisman paper, and with a dark face, he squeezed out two words from between his teeth.
"childish!"
