Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 532 - 501: Jiuyu Immortal! [Congratulations to ‘Shui Mu Fang Tian’ for becoming the Alliance Hierarch of this book!]
Kongling Gorge.
Tian Ge Sect.
Amidst the void, Master Mu Yang and Wu Jiu, both Primordial Spirit Experts, plummeted simultaneously, one in shock and the other in rage.
Wu Jiu was the first to angrily exclaim, "How dare Dutian do this!!!"
Recalling the recent events—
Dutian Demon, releasing the Twelve Demon Gods, blocked twenty-four Primordial Spirit Experts. Holding a bamboo cane, starting from the Heavenly Dragon Goddess of Divine Maiden Peak and Sword Sect’s Xunyangzi, he took advantage of the deadlock caused by the Demon Gods, catching them off guard.
With a flick of his bamboo cane, he sent a Primordial Spirit Expert plummeting into the Netherworld, trapped without escape.
Twelve consecutive steps, flicking his cane twelve times, including the Heavenly Dragon Goddess and Xunyangzi, all twelve Primordial Spirit Practitioners were all knocked into the crevices of the Netherworld, unable to escape for the moment and further subjected to the assault of the Netherworld. Even if they emerged, their mana and Primordial Spirits would be contaminated, and without decades or centuries of arduous effort, they would not be purged.
The injuries were significant.
Fortunately,
Led by Six Dust Temple, Wu Jiu, Master Mu Yang, and the remaining ten Primordial Spirits saw the bad situation and quickly extracted themselves, escaping directly out of the void. Otherwise, they too would have been knocked into the Netherworld, unable to free themselves, and their Magic Artifacts could have been seized, leading to heavy losses.
For the moment, they felt relieved.
The more relieved they felt, the angrier they became.
Wu Jiu’s eyes blazed with fury, "Such audacity from the Dutian Demon, ascension to the Spirit Domain is inevitable, sooner or later he’ll taste the bitter fruit!"
Invincible in the Lower Realm.
Just now in the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm where the nearly most elite Primordial Spirits from the Three Mountains and Nine Waters gathered, they were still no match for Dutian Demon. With such strength, his ascension will not be far off.
"Now it seems."
"The reason Dutian Demon delays his ascension must be for the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm. Now that all sixty-four Star Constellation Tablets are obtained, what else in the human world could possibly make him linger?"
Wu Jiu, thinking about the invincible stance just witnessed, exhibited a look of shock and a bitter, angry expression.
An invincible character lingering in the human world meant they would live in constant fear and anxiety for each additional day he stayed, naturally hoping he would leave soon.
"Let’s not deal with him for now."
"Although called ’Demon’ Dutian’s actions still have limits; he is not excessively bloodthirsty. As long as we don’t provoke him, there should be no major issue."
Master Mu Yang shook his head, seeing no way to deal with the Dutian Demon, and chose not to dwell on it.
Then, turning to the still indignant Wu Jiu, he changed the subject, "On Lv Mountain, the identity of Lu Qingfeng who passed the twenty-seven layers of Array Mountain has been cleared. If Junior Brother has nothing urgent, you might go to Biyang Lake Territory and meet this person. However, do not be reckless; if this person agrees, it would be excellent to invite him to Kongling Gorge."
"The specific details are all in this Jade Scroll, Junior Brother, please check it carefully."
With the capabilities of Tian Ge Sect, having a name and appearance, it wasn’t difficult to trace someone’s whereabouts.
In just two months.
They had already figured out the origins and current location of the person who passed the twenty-seven layers of Array Mountain that day.
Of course,
This was also because Lu Qingfeng had intentionally revealed himself; otherwise, it would have been hard for Tian Ge Sect to track him based solely on their capability.
"Okay."
Wu Jiu took the Jade Scroll, nodding in agreement.
That person had passed through Array Mountain and might have caught the attention of Ancestor Qin Feng. After ascending to the Upper Realm in the future, his status would be exceptional. Building a good relationship in the mortal realm before ascension would certainly yield endless benefits.
With that in mind,
Wu Jiu quickly flew towards Biyang Lake.
...
Xuanyuan Water Realm.
Feiyun Island.
With the sixty-four Star Constellation Tablets in hand, the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm fell into ruins and ceased to exist. Lu Qingfeng also fell out from it, landing within the cave dwelling on Feiyun Mountain.
Unrivaled in the human world.
Lonely as snow.
Lu Qingfeng shook his head and sighed lightly, swiftly pushing aside the memories of defeating twelve Primordial Spirit True Ones and scaring off twelve Primordial Spirit Experts alone in the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm.
"Star Constellation Tablets."
With a wave of his sleeve, sixty-four three-meter-tall obelisks fell and arranged themselves within the spacious cave, filling it completely.
Lu Qingfeng looked on,
His face expressing joy.
"Let’s first see the true mysteries of these Star Constellation Tablets."
Lu Qingfeng had intermittently comprehended for six to seven hundred years in the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm, and this was ultimately what he gained.
He did not dawdle.
He immediately sat cross-legged, mana circulating, flowing through each Star Constellation Tablet.
On the tablets, there existed a stellar universe, with various mysterious characters arranged. Even more obscure than within the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm, even a Primordial Spirit Practitioner would find it difficult to comprehend quickly. Hindered for just a moment, the Star Constellation Tablets would undergo fresh changes, requiring exploration from scratch.
Truly complex.
"These sixty-four Star Constellation Tablets constantly change, different practitioners can glean different Magic Gates from them. Even possessing just one tablet can equate or even surpass the tremendous palm seal in the ’First Secret Realm’ of Xuanyuan Sect."
Lu Qingfeng monopolized the sixty-four Star Constellation Tablets.
Mana swept over, subtly perceiving.
Immediately, a variety of techniques, cultivation techniques, and mysterious methods surged into his mind.
Low-level, Middle-level, High-level.
Basic Level, Refined, side door.
Forty-eight thousand techniques, like the starry universe continuously undergoing changes.
Over the years, he has continuously comprehended in the secret realm and studied in ’Primordial’, and with the aid of the ’Enlightenment’ Great Method, his understanding of these sixty-four Star Constellation Tablets had already far surpassed ordinary cultivators by many principles. Even the most top-ranked geniuses in the world could hardly compare to Lu Qingfeng.
Various high and low Magic Gates.
Lu Qingfeng paid no heed as he immersed deeply in his perception.
All of a sudden,
Within the array of the cavern, the sixty-four Star Constellation Tablets began to change—
Abruptly merging in pairs, they transformed into thirty-two tablets.
Then, they fused again, becoming sixteen tablets.
Lu Qingfeng’s gaze was calm and unfathomably deep.
One could barely make out in his eyes the convergence of seven stars, the circulation of the Nine Luminaries, and the collision of the twenty-eight constellations, revealing the profound mysteries of the Celestial Cycle Constellations.
In an instant,
The sixteen Star Constellation Tablets merged again into eight.
Floating in the air, they positioned themselves around Lu Qingfeng, circling like stars guarding him, constantly revolving.
A Mysterious Method flowed through Lu Qingfeng’s mind.
Gradually, multiple insights emerged.
Lu Qingfeng pointed with his hand, and the eight Star Constellation Tablets fell like comets, striking the void, shattering it into innumerable sparkling points. With another rotation, they duplicated into sixty-four and descended towards the broken parts of the void, suppressing and restoring it to its original state.
"What a wondrous Star Constellation Tablet!"
Lu Qingfeng’s eyes shone with mysterious light; he waved his hand, and the eight tablets landed in front of him. He looked up—
[Immortal Artifact: Celestial Cycle Stars Tablet]
[Grade: Second Rank]
[Description: The Jiuyu Immortal once traveled within and beyond the Spirit Domain, absorbing the essence of the Celestial Cycle Stars and refining the sixty-four Star Constellation Tablets. Containing the "Celestial Cycle Stars Method," it can harness the power of the Celestial Cycle Stars to cultivate the ’Celestial Cycle Constellation Undying Body.’ Anyone who gains insight can refine this treasure. To fuse the sixty-four Celestial Cycle Stars Tablets into one, one must cultivate the "Celestial Cycle Stars Method" to a Small Success Realm. Used in conjunction with this treasure, it possesses boundless might!]
[Note: After the fall of the Jiuyu Immortal, he left behind three supreme treasures: the Celestial Cycle Stars Tablet, the Seven Absolute Suppression Copper Coins, and the Plum Blossom Escape Heaven Treasure. When these three treasures are gathered, they can unlock the Jiuyu Immortal Mansion and grant the heritage of the Jiuyu Immortal.]
"Jiuyu Immortal."
"Celestial Cycle Stars Tablet."
Lu Qingfeng gazed at the eight obelisks in front of him, muttering under his breath. With a flip of his palm, the eight obelisks shrank and neatly fell into his palm.
Then they disappeared.
Huffing and puffing!
Inside his body, the Twelve Demon Gods circled, continuously refining as clouds were swallowed and expelled.
Lu Qingfeng was organizing the multitude of magic methods in his mind, deriving one from the Star Constellation Tablet—
[Divine Skills: Celestial Cycle Stars Method]
[Grade: Ordinary]
[Description: The Jiuyu Immortal sat amidst the stars for eighty thousand years, integrating various ancient Star Constellation Great Methods, innovating and ultimately perceiving this method. With myriad transformations and unparalleled power in both offense and defense, bearing it made him unbeatable across the Universe and the Spirit Domain, culminating in his Ascension to the Immortal Realm. Thirty-six thousand years ago, the Jiuyu Immortal faced a calamity, his remnants returned to the Spirit Domain, leaving behind his Immortal Mansion and three treasures before entering the cycle of reincarnation, leaving no further traces.]
"Divine Skills!"
Lu Qingfeng’s eyes shifted.
This was the first time he encountered Divine Skills in the mortal world, besides the ’Taiyin Soul Searching Technique’ used by Xun Tiange from Green Wood Valley—a first for acquiring such profound skills in the human realm.
Even with various Divine Skills and Great Divine Powers at his disposal, Lu Qingfeng was momentarily intrigued.
"Jiuyu Immortal."
Lu Qingfeng pondered for a while, Divine Skills circulating in his heart, and he couldn’t help but chuckle, "With this, ’Dutian Daoist’s’ identity in the Spirit Domain now has a heritage, a backing. Even though the Jiuyu Immortal has fallen, having had Divine Skills and possessing three Immortal Artifacts, he was not an ordinary Earth Immortal. Perhaps he also had friends in the Spirit Domain who could provide support."
Of course,
Lu Qingfeng did not care much for support.
But having established a connection with the Jiuyu Immortal, attributing all his future strategies to the Jiuyu Immortal would save much needless conjecture.
However, there was one concern—
"I have obtained the Celestial Cycle Stars Tablet, one of the three treasures, essential for unlocking the Jiuyu Immortal’s Mansion. Trouble is likely ahead."
With this thought,
Lu Qingfeng couldn’t help but think of the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm.
"The Heavenly Stele Secret Realm is located in Three Mountains and Nine Waters, and although the Three Mountains Seven Gorges Immortal Sect values it, it’s unusual that the Upper Realm’s Spirit Domain hasn’t dispatched exceptionally talented disciples to descend and explore."
At this thought,
Lu Qingfeng’s eyebrows knit together, but soon relaxed, his face revealing a sudden understanding—
"The Seven Absolute Suppression Copper Coins!"
Lu Qingfeng’s eyes cleared of doubt, "The Jiuyu Immortal has three treasures, with the Celestial Cycle Stars Tablet as a supreme treasure for both offense and defense, unmatched when used with the Celestial Cycle Stars Method. The Seven Absolute Suppression Copper Coins must be a treasure of curses. Given the Jiuyu Immortal’s possession of this treasure, he must have had profound knowledge of curses. The reason the Upper Realm’s Immortal Sects do not send prodigious disciples to conquer the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm must be closely related to this."
Lu Qingfeng’s hands constantly moved calculations within his sleeves.
Finally, he paused.
"Indeed!"
The Divine Skills corroborated his guess, being almost certainly correct.
"However,"
"True Immortals and Immortal avatars cannot enter the Heavenly Stele Secret Realm, and Primordial Spirit Practitioners cannot withstand the Jiuyu Immortal’s curse methods, allowing the Secret Realm to persist in the mortal world, and for me to seize it."
"But the Jiuyu Immortal Mansion is in the Upper Realm."
"With many Immortals in the Spirit Domain, and even Earth Immortals fearing the curse methods, they would not necessarily fear an already fallen Jiuyu Immortal."
"To defend the Celestial Cycle Stars Tablet, and perhaps to attain the Jiuyu Immortal Mansion, caution and careful cultivation are required."
Lu Qingfeng’s thoughts flew, making his plan.
He had already made arrangements for this period of lying low.
Amidst these thoughts,
Outside Feiyun Island, commotion had risen, and a figure rushed over, landing outside the island, bowing with hands clasped and loudly said—
"Wu Jiu of the Heavenly Star Sect, has come to visit Fellow Daoist Lu!"
