Chapter 207 The Immortal Cultivator
created a complete cultivation method for his disciples to practice, rapidly improving their strength. This was no easy feat. Even with the vast collection of scriptures from various sects and his own master-level knowledge, Zhou Qing still had to expend a tremendous amount of effort and time.
The biggest difference between immortals and mortals lies in their primordial spirit. After passing through the nine great tribulations and eliminating karma, one can gather the essence of the five metals and the essence of heaven and earth to refine the primordial spirit into an infant, and then refine the infant into a pure child, identical to one's original form. This allows one to completely discard the physical body, roam freely between heaven and earth, and transform in countless ways. One can also possess other bodies at will, possessing countless wonders. Finally, the pure child undergoes the Nine Revolutions of Profound Transformation, harmonizing the dragon and tiger, to form the Golden Core, which is the indestructible and eternally immortal position of the Great Luo Golden Immortal. Whether it's a demon or a human cultivator, regardless of what Daoist or demonic arts they practice, they ultimately must walk this path.
Ancient great shamans possessed bodies composed of different structures, naturally possessing unparalleled strength. As they grew, they modified their bodies according to these different structures, making them even more destructive, ultimately achieving immortality. Bai Qi is a prime example. The profound art Zhou Qing initially practiced, though vastly different from any other, was fundamentally a combination of Buddhism and Taoism, simply condensing karmic energy and fusing it into his golden body. This avoided heavenly tribulations and made him even more powerful—a similarity to the great shamans using the power of heaven and earth to transform themselves.
Each time the golden body was broken and karmic energy was recombined, it became more refined. After cultivating to the Heavenly Immortal level, it changed again, accumulating sufficient karmic energy and willpower, breaking and recombining once more. The form of the golden body would change slightly. Until the 108th time, the golden body was perfected, becoming like a Great Luo Golden Immortal in the immortal path.
However, Zhou Qing only discovered this after cultivating to the Heavenly Immortal level in the Earthly Immortal Realm using the primordial spirits of a wolf spirit and the withered bone god. The Golden Body Mystic Art ended there; there was nothing more. The Dharma Body's form was a four-faced, eight-armed being. Zhou Qing had resolved to create his own technique at that moment; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to exterminate the entire Central Plains Daoist sect. Only by annihilating the Central Plains Daoist sect could he obtain all the scriptures.
Later, the Blood Transformation Blade shattered, and the twelve Heavenly Demon Gods materialized. These twelve Heavenly Demon Gods were all avatars of the twelve ancestral sorcerers from ancient times. As long as enough souls were absorbed, they could be awakened by opening them with the Blood Transformation Blade and made available to Zhou Qing.
Originally, when the demon god avatars materialized, the dissipated consciousness would be collected one by one. At that time, it would be the true resurrection of the twelve ancestral sorcerers, which no one could control. The master who condensed them would be the first to suffer the backlash. However, the Heavenly Demon God Array was designed specifically to address this weakness. The consciousness that gathered as the gods and demons materialized was completely isolated and entered Zhou Qing's consciousness. The Heavenly Demon Gods were left with only pure fighting instincts and power.
The original intention behind setting up this formation and forging the Blood-Transforming Blade Chi You Great Witch was to not only make the Twelve Ancestral Witches work for him, but also to gain access to all their memories and experiences. If successful, once the twelve groups of witches regained their full power, he would be the sole ruler of heaven and earth, capable of splitting the heavens and earth in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Qing absorbed the residual consciousness of the ancient Ancestral Witches, which contained techniques for physical transformation. Combined with his Heavenly Immortal-level golden body, he cultivated a unique profound skill. He further comprehended this skill by fighting Bai Qi in the Three Realms Rift. This skill is unique, impossible to learn even if one wanted to, and Zhou Qing could not pass it on to his disciples.
If he had just entered the Earthly Immortal Realm and hadn't yet absorbed the Ancestral Witches' experience, Zhou Qing would definitely not be a match for Bai Qi, and would probably be far inferior to Nezha. But now, he firmly surpasses Nezha and is closing in on Bai Qi. Given time, he might even become the true Gouchen Emperor.
However, Zhou Qing couldn't imagine or calculate the existence of the Three Pure Ones, nor could he fathom the abilities of the Twelve Golden Immortals under their tutelage. He also didn't know their strength, nor was he arrogant enough to claim he could rival the Three Pure Ones. Although Yun Zhongzi wasn't one of the Twelve Immortals, he was a contemporary. Zhou Qing had inherited his legacy and could roughly deduce his strength. This Golden Immortal Yun Zhongzi was definitely stronger than himself, but it wasn't impossible for him, along with the Twelve Heavenly Demon Gods, to obliterate him.
This was a calculation of his strength thousands of years ago. As for how much he had progressed now, Zhou Qing knew, of course.
The Heavenly Demon Gods that had now materialized were each roughly on par with Bai Qi in combat ability. Among them, the demon god with a python's head and a human body, riding two dragons, was firmly above Bai Qi. It was precisely because of this trump card that Zhou Qing dared to boast so confidently in the Heavenly Palace and accept the position of the Gouchen Emperor.
"Husband, what are you thinking about?" Yunxia sat beside Zhou Qing, noticing his deep thought, and dismissed the disciples, leaving only Lan Shen, Wen Lanxin, the little fox, and Zhou Chen, her trusted confidants.
"Oh! Nothing, very good! You are all worthy disciples of my Heavenly Dao Sect. Can Can, Chen Chen, you must learn from your senior sister, especially Can Can. You can't be naughty anymore. Focus on building up your strength in the mortal realm. Once I've paved the way in the Immortal Realm, I'll use my supernatural powers to move my cave there. The Immortal Realm is full of powerful beings, including ancient immortals. It's worlds apart from the mortal realm. You must not be arrogant."
Zhou Qing explained the situation in detail, then repeatedly gave his instructions. The disciples were all extremely excited. With such a good place to go, why stay in this small place in the mortal realm? Even Yunxia was very tempted.
"Lan Shen! Cooperate with Di Lingzi to go to the West and collect more Yin Souls," Zhou Qing instructed. "The mortal realm is overcrowded and filthy, which is why it hasn't produced any truly powerful cultivators. Also, send Di Lingzi to the sea to establish a cave dwelling; with so many cultivators, the few major grotto-heavens simply aren't enough."
"I'll send a message from here using my flying sword, asking Xuanwu Daoist and the Three Sages of Tianshui for help!" As soon as he finished speaking, a gleaming little sword appeared in Zhou Qing's hand. He condensed a few seal characters on it, blew on it, and the sword vanished into thin air.
Zhou Qing then gave his orders one by one. After all, he was the sect leader, and some things he needed to decide himself. His disciples and followers were merely running errands and carrying out his instructions.
Having given all the instructions and confirmed there were no oversights, Zhou Qing continued, "I have other matters to attend to tomorrow. I'll be back in ten days to a year and a half. Wen Lanxin, your disciples are still insufficient, only a little over three hundred. That's less than a finger's width of land. You must strive to expand your sect, but they must all have good aptitude. Select a few direct disciples. They must be loyal and reliable, to serve as the third generation of disciples for our Heavenly Dao Sect."
"Disciple understands. I will remember Master's instructions."
Wen Lanxin never dreamed that one day he would be able to sit in the Jade Void Palace, commanding all the Daoist sects under heaven, recruiting disciples, collecting materials, and refining demonic artifacts. Before, this was simply impossible. Now, it had all become a reality.
“There are rare spiritual herbs growing on the seabed, and perhaps even the remnants of ancient immortals’ caves. This is the Water-Avoiding Divine Pearl. Yunxia, if you have some free time, go explore with your sisters. You might find something. Collecting too many herbs will be useful for your Great Freedom Palace. The rest can be given to Wen Lanxin to refine pills for your disciples to cleanse their marrow.”
Zhou Qing planned to explore the Earthly Immortal Realm again, acting as a vanguard. He needed to understand the situation, the division of power, and the circumstances of the various demon kings. After several observations, he realized that the Heavenly Palace and the Earthly Immortal Realm were two completely different worlds. Planning before acting was the key to Zhou Qing’s success in avoiding major losses.
“What, husband, are you leaving again!” For the past month, Yunxia had been anxious and restless. Zhou Qing had finally returned safely, and now he was leaving again; naturally , she was upset.
“Yes, there’s no other way. Exploring the Earthly Immortal Realm is imperative. Let me explain in detail!” Zhou Qing dismissed several disciples, leaving only Yunxia and him to talk.
Holding Yunxia's hand, Zhou Qing recounted his journey to the Immortal Realm, telling her everything in detail. Yunxia was deeply shocked and surprised after listening. After a moment, she calmed down and sighed, "I never knew there was such a vast world. We were like frogs in a well, looking at the world from the bottom of our own eyes. Husband, you can go there without worry. I will take good care of you in the mortal realm. The Heavenly Court's conferment of the title of Emperor Gouchen on you was definitely not for any good purpose. They were just using you as a pawn."
After a pause, Yunxia frowned slightly: "Going to the Immortal Realm requires not only personal strength but also a large number of followers. Even the great sorcerer Bai Qi, whose power could almost traverse the Three Realms, was trapped by the Dragon Palace's million-strong water army. My husband will be alone and weak on his journey. Please do not clash with those powerful forces. A hero cannot overcome a large number of people. I will slowly accumulate strength for you here. When the time is right, we will go there. In any case, immortals generally do not descend to the mortal realm, making it the best place for you to develop your strength."
"My wife's words resonate deeply with me. The mortal realm is small, with thin and polluted spiritual energy. It is not a place to live for long. Once I have established a solid foundation, my wife and I will leave the mortal realm together, free from tribulations and boundless, enjoying that boundless paradise. It is indeed a million times more joyful than the mortal realm," Zhou Qing nodded.
Yunxia nestled softly into Zhou Qing's arms, and the two lingered tenderly for a moment, inseparable. Looking at Yunxia's beautiful face, Zhou Qing's heart stirred, and he suddenly said, "There's something I almost forgot." "
What is it?" Yunxia asked, somewhat bewildered.
"This mortal realm isn't necessarily a peaceful place. There's some trouble at the North Sea Eye. Those two demonesses from the Earthly Immortal Realm last time caused a great calamity for Kongtong, almost wiping them out. I'm afraid more trouble is on the horizon. Your cultivation is still weak compared to them. The Immortal Binding Rope hasn't been refined by me yet, so it lacks true power. It won't be effective against powerful opponents. This time, after I killed that wolf demon, I'm afraid a Celestial Immortal will descend, and your self-preservation will become a problem."
Zhou Qing began to consider.
"The Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Ruler, the Dragon-Tiger Treasure Seal, the Celestial Master Sword, the Purple Jade Twin Swords, and the Purple Talisman Heavenly Record—these are all treasures of our sect, possessing immense power. With my reforging, they've become even more spiritually potent. You can use your divine sense to refine them, and they will automatically protect their master in times of danger."
Zhou Qing gave Yunxia over a dozen incredibly powerful magical treasures at once, and also transmitted the incantations.
"Husband, you've given me so many magical treasures, what will you do?" Yunxia asked hurriedly.
Zhou Qing then took out the Apricot Yellow Flag and the gourd, saying, "These two magical treasures are among the finest of the divine artifacts. I originally intended to use the Divine Fiend Array, with the combined power of the twelve Heavenly Demon Gods, to break the seal and reforge them. However, it will take a considerable amount of time, perhaps several decades. You should study them slowly and try to unleash even a little power. It's better than nothing. This gourd is a malevolent artifact. You can only study it, not use it."
"I have the Seven Treasures Tree; ordinary people cannot harm me! Besides, I won't be fighting anyone on this journey. But I'm very worried about you. These magical treasures are only for self-defense. They're not enough to defeat enemies. If something happens to you, what's the point of everything I've done?"
Zhou Qing waved his hand, taking out the twelve Heavenly Underworld King Flags and giving six to Yunxia. He then bit his finger, dripping out a dark golden, viscous blood, and drew a small talisman on Yunxia's forehead, which then seeped into the blood, leaving no trace.
"Only with my primordial spirit imprinted and wielding the Underworld King's Banner can I control the summoned Heavenly Demon Gods freely and unleash their full power. Otherwise, they won't even have one percent of their strength. Each of these Heavenly Demon Gods possesses strength comparable to Bai Qi, and they are our greatest asset in our future struggles against the gods, Buddhas, and Bodhisattvas of the heavens, securing a place for us in the Three Realms. However, these things cannot be exposed to the light. If you encounter an enemy you truly cannot defeat, release the demon gods, but make sure they escape, preferably leaving them alive!"
"Six Heavenly Demon Gods. Even if a Golden Immortal from the Chan Sect were to come in person, they would probably be blasted into dust. Unless the Three Pure Ones personally descend to the mortal realm, or all the Bodhisattvas of the heavens besiege you, you should be safe and sound."
Zhou Qing had given all the instructions, and Yunxia, knowing Zhou Qing's intentions, said no more. She gradually trusted Zhou Qing, knowing that protecting herself was the greatest help she could offer him.
Zhou Qing then transmitted the incantation. Now that Yunxia had entered the late stage of the Returning to Emptiness realm, she could no longer rapidly increase her power, otherwise it would summon a great calamity, which would be troublesome. Zhou Qing had not yet figured out the complete system of the technique for condensing the golden body with karma, and dared not rashly pass it on to Yunxia.
It was thanks to Zhou Qing's meticulousness and watertightness that Yunxia was able to fight the two demonesses in the North Sea, break the Divine Wisdom Wolf's Ten Thousand Beasts Four Holy Spirits Heavenly Tablet, take it as her mount, and obtain the Banana Leaf Fan.
That night, with nothing to do, the two talked and made detailed plans. At dawn the next day, Yunxia went to the Great Freedom Palace, taking a group of sisters to play in the sea, gathering herbs and exploring the underworld. Things in the human realm were progressing smoothly, and there was nothing left for Zhou Qing to worry about.
There had been no news of Xuanyuan Fawang, but Zhou Qing knew he had gone to the Zilan Palace in the East Sea to refine the Xuan Yin Banner. Zhou Qing had reorganized the Daoist sects of the Central Plains, eliminating the malignant elements. Xuanyuan Fawang knew he couldn't contend with Zhou Qing and could only retreat into seclusion to cultivate and seek ascension. Zhou Qing didn't bother with him.
With a wave of his hand, he entered the Three Realms Rift. Today was the day of Nezha's duel with the Dragon Girl, and Zhou Qing, having been invited by Nezha, naturally had to come and watch. Zhou Qing was also curious that the Dragon Girl could fight the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas, Nezha.
In the Earthly Immortal Realm, the Four Seas Dragon Gods were undoubtedly a special force, both appointed by Heaven and intricately connected with powerful demon kings. This was the best place for Zhou Qing to understand the various forces in the Earthly Immortal Realm. However, Zhou Qing was now a well-known figure, the nominal Gouchen Emperor, and he certainly needed to plan carefully before acting rashly.
Having flown through the Three Realms Rift for a long time, Zhou Qing unleashed his powerful divine sense, scanning the surroundings. The rift stretched for countless miles, its depth unknown. Even at Zhou Qing's speed, opening the gate to the Earthly Immortal Realm would take several hours, a long and winding journey. This time, his battle with Bai Qi had lasted over a month, only reaching near the edge of the Earthly Immortal Realm.
Bored, Zhou Qing sat cross-legged in the void, using his divine sense to examine some Daoist scriptures and insights within his spatial dimension. He even separated his divine sense to probe for movement. Within the Three Realms Rift
, there was not a trace of spiritual energy; his divine sense encountered no obstruction, expanding the area he explored several times larger than in any other realm. After a moment, a deafening roar resounded. Zhou Qing's divine sense was like a mountain peak being smashed against a calm lake. An extremely powerful aura appeared, sensing Zhou Qing's presence, pausing slightly before rushing towards him.
"May I ask who you are, fellow Daoist, and why you are meditating in this rift between the Three Realms? Is there some difficulty you face?" A delicate and gentle voice rang out. Zhou Qing turned around and saw the owner of the voice. She held a precious sword, sheathed in a jade scabbard. Zhou Qing couldn't identify the sword. She wore a white palace dress and a pink veil, a stunning beauty, gentle yet possessing a vibrant spirit.
"This humble Daoist is Zhou Qing. Are you the Fourth Princess of the South Sea?" Zhou Qing stood up and asked.
"So you are the newly appointed Great Emperor Gouchen by the Heavenly Court? I am Ao Luan, the Fourth Princess of the South Sea. You must have come to watch the battle at the invitation of the Great God of the Three Altars Sea Gathering."
Ao Luan was somewhat moved. Although she disliked the Heavenly Court, she had heard from Ao Guang about the strength of this new Great Emperor Gouchen—a Daoist who could fight the Great Witch Bai Qi to a standstill.
During the battle with Bai Qi, Ao Luan hadn't received any news and later regretted not taking advantage of Bai Qi's seemingly unparalleled sword.
