Chapter 1912
"What?" Chen Xuan exclaimed in surprise, "Master is overdrawing his second life to accelerate the advancement of his main body's cultivation level?"
The Star-Gazing Immortal smiled and nodded, "There are gains and losses. When I made this decision, I already foresaw this day."
"Thank you, Master!" Qiu Zixian's body trembled. If her previous apprenticeship was merely a matter of using the name of the Heartless Saint to gain the right to fight Xia Jiuyou fairly and get rid of her inner demons.
Now, this "Master" is a call from the bottom of her heart.
Looking at Qiu Zixian like this, Master Lanxing sighed and said, "Your tribulation is not in cultivating the three paths of demons, but in the life-and-death tribulation between you and Xia Jiuyou. What I have given you is at most to give you the strength to truly fight against her."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lanxing waved his hand at Qiu Zixian, and a beam of blood-red light shot out from the strange and ferocious immortal mansion in his hand, directly enveloping her.
Qiu Zixian offered no resistance and was directly teleported into the strange immortal abode.
If Chen Xuan wasn't here, Qiu Zixian wouldn't be able to trust Lanxing Zhenxian, but with Chen Xuan around, she could safely enter someone else's lair.
"Don't worry, the time array inside the immortal abode is constantly running automatically. We'll know in a few days whether she has a connection with this immortal abode."
Chen Xuan nodded upon hearing this.
"Chen Xuan, how many strands of immortal energy have you cultivated so far? What is their quality?" As a new disciple, he neither needed supernatural powers or secret techniques, nor did he specialize in swordsmanship. In fact, none of the elders in the entire sect specialized in the swordsmanship of killing. This made Lan Xing feel somewhat awkward.
It's like I've accepted this disciple but it's also like I haven't. I feel like I can only offer limited guidance, as I'm about to go into seclusion to seek an opportunity to break through to the Immortal King realm. The time I have left to teach this disciple will only become less and less.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan made no attempt to conceal anything. A thought flashed through his mind, and—whoosh!
Four streams of celestial energy, transcending the mortal realm, slowly manifested and swirled around Chen Xuan's body.
Even the well-informed and composed Immortal Lanxing was shocked when he saw the four powerful immortal energies surrounding Chen Xuan.
"Such abundant life-giving energy, and the second strand of immortal energy is actually karmic fire immortal energy filled with destructive power... No, the third strand of immortal energy is actually holy merit immortal energy..."
After a brief analysis, the Star-Gazing Immortal looked at Chen Xuan in surprise and asked, "Could it be that you are following a path of immortal energy with completely opposing attributes, a path that was rarely taken even in the ancient immortal era?"
Seeing that even a true immortal was so surprised, Chen Xuan's heart skipped a beat before he nodded, "Master's insightful divine power has officially created a path of cultivation that opposes immortal energy."
"You kid... you're too crazy." Lan Xing shook his head slightly while shocked. "Apart from the Immortal Ancient Era, no one has been able to complete this path since the Great Emperor who created the Ninefold Immortal Qi Cultivation Method. Many Eternal Supremes had to give up on this path when they reached the seventh Immortal Qi."
Chen Xuan listened quietly. His master had lived for nearly a million years, and his experiences were beyond his imagination.
Looking at Chen Xuan's first three streams of energy that surpassed immortality, Lan Xing asked, "After your first-stage breakthrough, what attribute of ability did you awaken?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan dared not conceal anything. He raised his hand, and a ball of Red Lotus Karmic Fire, powerful enough to burn away sins, appeared in his palm. The Red Lotus Karmic Fire had no temperature and could not even burn a pure body. However, once you were burdened with sins, this fire would become the most terrifying torment.
Upon seeing that Chen Xuan's first-stage breakthrough in immortal energy was actually achieved with the 'Red Lotus Karmic Fire', Lan Xing's brows furrowed even deeper, accompanied by a sigh.
This sigh is reminiscent of a traditional Chinese medicine doctor taking a pulse and offering various sighs.
Chen Xuan quickly pressed on, "Master, please don't sigh. Am I...am I going to die?"
Lan Xing was taken aback, then laughed and shook his head, saying, "The opposing schools of immortal energy have expanded somewhat after a chaotic era of the universe, thanks to the attempts of countless brilliant Dao Lords of Life and Death, and even Eternal Immortal Emperors and Rulers."
Chen Xuan's eyes lit up. Upon hearing these words, even the section of the broken, cyan tower floating above Chen Xuan's Purple Mansion space trembled.
"After breaking through the first stage of the opposing attributes, according to common sense, for the fourth immortal energy in the second stage, you need to find a transcendent ancient divine substance that is opposite to the attribute of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire in order to cultivate the fourth immortal energy."
The Star-Gazing Immortal shook his head, "It's a pity that his luck is so strong that he was able to obtain the Chaos Crystal, a treasure of the Chaos Clan of the Ten Fiend Tribes of the Ancient Immortals, and cultivate a Chaos Immortal Qi in the Void Reversal Realm."
He continued, "Chaos can evolve into all things in the five elements of heaven and earth, including the Red Lotus Karmic Fire with its opposing attributes, which is naturally no exception."
Chen Xuan's heart sank, and he vaguely sensed that he seemed to have missed some tremendous opportunity.
"It's a pity that you shouldn't have used this chaotic divine substance on the fourth immortal energy. If you had used it on the sixth or seventh energy, which is the most important for breaking through to the second stage of immortal energy, you would have gone much further on the path of the nine levels of immortal energy." True Immortal Lanxing shook his head. "However, since it's already a fait accompli, there's no use in saying it's a pity anymore. I'm telling you this so that your disciples and relatives won't have to take such a detour in the future."
Chen Xuan nodded.
Seeing that Chen Xuan showed no remorse or regret for using up the Chaos Divine Matter that was his safety net, Lan Xing recognized his character. His eyes gleamed as he stared at the Red Lotus Karmic Fire in Chen Xuan's hand, carefully sensing its internal properties.
After a long while, the Star-Gazing Immortal finally came to his senses and withdrew his Dao Eye Divine Power. He looked at Chen Xuan and smiled, "Your Karmic Fire not only contains pure Karmic Fire, but also a trace of Water and Wood Merit attributes. Therefore, the choice of your fifth Immortal Qi... must meet the premise of Water, Wood, and Merit, but the main attribute must be opposed to the Red Lotus Karmic Fire."
"Huh? Master... Did I hear that right?" Chen Xuan was shocked. If it were just about opposing karmic fire and sin, he was confident he could find it. But with these additional conditions, Chen Xuan was instantly overwhelmed.
"From the ancient times to the present, those supreme beings who were unwilling to remain in the Eternal Realm have been frantically trying to take that step to become a half-step Great Emperor. Unfortunately, their potential has been exhausted, and it is extremely difficult for them to take another half step."
Lan Xing shook his head and sighed, "That's why many powerful beings regard the Ninefold Immortal Qi Cultivation Method and the Emperor Weapon Method as their last straw. They went too crazy to cultivate the Extreme Emperor Weapon Method, which caused chaos in the inner sect of the Dao Alliance and turmoil among all races. The Great Emperor issued a decree and cut it off with one stroke."
