Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

"The second fall into the extreme lightning punishment will scatter his good deeds and rank towards immortality."

After the invisible swords pierced the three of them, leaving them riddled with holes, an endless sea of ​​lightning crashed down.

The White Lotus Clan Chief and Elder, both of average strength, transformed into pure immortal light within the sea of ​​lightning and vanished into nothingness.

Bai Yazhi's crying grew louder.

The Azure Immortal Emperor also coughed up blood repeatedly, his aura dropping several levels. However, before the punishment was over, Tianqi spoke up.

"Canglan, considering your status as an Immortal Emperor and your contribution to maintaining stability within the Immortal Clan, we will let you off the hook for the Tribulation of Reincarnation."

"Three times the Immortal Spirit Source was cut off, and the Immortal was demoted to the Core Formation Realm."

Having endured the three punishments, the aura of the Azure Lan Immortal Emperor plummeted to the True Immortal level, and his face became aged and haggard, like an old man on his deathbed.

The ruthlessness of Apocalypse is evident.

Gu Qing suspected that the other party was driven by personal emotions and was not acting out of a sense of public duty. He was so hurt that he would have died on the spot if it weren't for the protection of the Heavenly Palace artifact, the Emperor's Seal.

It's not something that can be restored to its current state overnight.

after the end.

Bai Yazhi was the first to rush forward, hugging Canglan and wailing. The immortals were too ashamed to watch, and after bidding farewell to the God, they all left one after another.

However, many of Canglan's close friends remained, such as Qiyue and the four Great Immortals.

Tianqi Chao exchanged a glance with the divine avatars of Tu Shanyue and Gu Qing.

They left first.

Outside the sacrificial temple leading to the Outer Heavens, Tu Shan Yue followed closely behind Tian Qi, feeling a little nervous. Just now, Tian Qi's appearance and every move he made had caused the Heavenly Palace Ruler to behave like that.

How could a demon king like her not be afraid?

She felt particularly uneasy when she thought about forcing Tianqi to cook in the mortal realm.

Temple for worshipping the gods.

This place is for worshipping ancient gods and enshrining their spirit tablets.

It is also the closest place to the outer heavens, and the highest peak of the Heavenly Palace.

As they sat down, Tu Shanyue spoke cautiously.

"My Lord, those were just childish pranks. Please don't take them to heart. Tu Shan Yue apologizes to you."

Seeing this, Tianqi, who had been keeping a cold face, suddenly burst into laughter, and Gu Qingyi couldn't help but chuckle.

Once she came to her senses, Tu Shan Yue was overcome with anger.

"Hmph, fine, you pretended to fool me like this, don't you feel any guilt?"

"And you, Feng Xuan, you said that Tianqi would change after regaining his divine status, isn't that the same thing?!"

"Ahhh, I'm so pissed off."

Ignoring the third party's breach of defense, Gu Qing's mental avatar jumped onto the table, shook its head, and sighed.

"Tianqi Qing Shu, Canglan Bai Yazhi".

"Why are you all so love-obsessed?"

Tianqi was taken aback and his smile faded.

"Did you see it?"

"How could I not see it? Your aura... tsk tsk, it's like you're saying you're going to kill all those immortals who bullied Qing Shu. Cang Lan is the same, he just happened to run into your line of fire."

Tianqi chuckled: "But you forgot one, Tu Shanyue and Feng Xuan."

Gu Qing shrugged: "...Ahem, it has nothing to do with me."

Apocalypse: "If you are concerned about the marriage agreement, I can help you find someone else."

Gu Qing: "This is not the same thing. I thought you understood, Tianqi."

The two spoke in a way that was half-revealed and half-hidden, leaving only Tu Shan Yue completely confused.

"Being reasonable and understanding does not mean you can't do it."

Tu Shan Yue suddenly interjected, "Your Majesty is truly impressive. Could you do me a favor regarding the marriage? I have many younger brothers and sisters; what harm is there in changing one?"

"Look, here's the problem. Tu Shanyue, could you excuse yourself for a moment? I need to have a private conversation with Tianqi."

"What can't I hear?"

"You'll definitely get angry if you hear this, so it's best not to listen."

"Hmph, cheapskate."

He cursed and swore, but his body honestly avoided it.

With a wave of his hand, Apocalypse created a barrier of divine power, ensuring that no one else could hear their conversation.

"Found?"

"Ah."

Gu Qing had previously told Tianqi about the essence of the Heavenly Dao and his role, saying that it wouldn't be long before the final executioner's blade fell on him, this very tool.

If you can move a god's heart and then bring calamity upon the person he loves, he will recklessly use divine power and violate the rules of heaven and earth. At that time, when the heavens unleash their killing intent, he will surely die.

This is the divine tribulation.

With a long sigh, Apocalypse spoke.

“The Chaos Green Lotus was born at the beginning of the world, born from chaos. It is older than me. I never thought I would fall in love with her mortal body that had undergone tribulations.”

The golden figure formed from Gu Qing's divine sense shrugged comically and said, "In fact, if I hadn't happened to be there, Tu Shan Yue would have been seriously injured and you would be in a mortal body."

"Qing Shu's physical body has been destroyed, and her primordial spirit has been defiled by causal connections. She will fall into the cycle of reincarnation. If you want to save her, you will have to go to the Ghost Realm to force your way through the cycle of reincarnation."

"If order is disrupted, the Heavenly Dao can strike you dead."

Upon hearing this, Tianqi fell silent.

He knew that Gu Qing was right, and it also verified his previous explanation of the principles of Heaven. It was not some Father God, but just a ruthless machine of order.

At this point, nothing you say will make a difference.

As an ancient god who has lived for countless years, his ruthlessness can rival that of the Heavenly Dao when necessary.

"What's the explanation for the method you mentioned before?"

"Of course there is."

Gu Qing grinned.

"The consciousness of the Blood Sea Realm is the key. If you can replace the will of the Blood Sea, you will be like an independent avatar of the Heavenly Dao, and it will no longer be able to restrain you."

"To merge with one world? That's not right. My consciousness will also dissipate. I can't bear the mad will accumulated from countless years of killing in the Blood Sea Realm."

"Therefore, it is necessary to destroy the world."

"Destroy the world?"

Tianqi remained silent for a moment, then looked at the dying Zulian beside him and said in a muffled voice.

"What exactly should be done?"

"If you want to transcend the rules of Heaven, you must give up your current power, because it is something He gave you and now you want to take it back."

“Cultivation in the Mountain and Sea Realm is not cultivation at all; it is more appropriate to describe it as worshipping the heavens.”

Tianqi frowned.

"But how am I supposed to cope if I lose my power?"

"Today I will open your eyes and let you see the real path of cultivation and the path to immortality."

Immediately afterwards, Gu Qing transmitted the eighth-grade ultimate cultivation technique, "Five Qi Profound Origin Technique," to Tian Qi through divine thought. After receiving it, Tian Qi remained silent for a long time.

"So this is what cultivation is all about: seizing the power of heaven and earth and using it for one's own benefit. Even after death, one can give back to heaven and earth to strengthen the world itself. In this way, the way of heaven is just and impartial, and it may even give birth to a large number of natural treasures that are beneficial to cultivation."

"Yes."

"I will teach you the Four Nine Immortal Paths of the Cangwu Realm, so that you can rebuild your foundation."

“Sever your current divine body of law, refine it into a second body, control it to merge with the Dao of the world, and transform it into the Blood Sea Demon God.”

"The Blood Sea Consciousness was born to harvest the ancient gods. When it becomes an ancient god itself, the Heavenly Dao's executioner's blade will fall on its head."

"As the saying goes, when the time is right, heaven and earth will lend their strength. Heaven controls destiny and calamities, and the other five realms are our help. Perhaps even righteous rebels will emerge from among the demons."

“We stood idly by and even secretly assisted the Blood Sea Demon God, giving it the opportunity to destroy the Six Realms.”

"Faced with the destruction of the order of the six realms, the Heavenly Dao may take the initiative to separate the Blood Sea Realm from the Mountain and Sea Realm, thus recreating chaos."

"Whether the Blood Sea Demon God succeeds or the Heavenly Dao succeeds, our goal will be achieved. You will be free and unfettered, and perhaps you can go to the true Immortal Realm in the future, while I will be able to go home."

Gu Qing's tone was flat, and his words were mostly true with only a hint of falsehood.

There is only one false part: the Heavenly Dao will not voluntarily sever ties with the Blood Sea Realm, and it cannot do anything that contradicts the rules governing the world.

The more likely scenario is that the Six Realms will be completely destroyed, chaos will be reenacted, and the consciousness of the Blood Sea will transform into a demon god, with only this one goal.

In other words, once Apocalypse agrees...

The Mountain and Sea Realm is finished, which is why he doesn't confide in Tu Shan Yue.

There is a loophole.

Apocalypse suddenly spoke.

"Heaven can see the entire trajectory of all things in the world, and it will stop us."

“I know, so you can’t tell anyone, and you have to learn this forbidden technique.”

"what?"

"The Heavenly Shuttle Secret Technique is a forbidden art that can shield you from the perception of the Heavenly Dao, so that even the lightning tribulation cannot lock onto you."

Gu Qing smiled, took out something he had prepared beforehand and handed it to Tianqi, then revealed his second backup plan.

“After your Law Body transforms into the Blood Sea Demon God, no one knows how powerful you will become. In case the Heavenly Dao is no match for you, I have prepared a second contingency plan.”

"The Ferry of Salvation! A giant vessel that can travel through the Ruins of Return. In the event of failure, those we care about can avoid the catastrophe of world destruction and perish with the heavens and earth. Now is the time for you to provide equipment support."

"The better the raw materials, the more void Dao patterns they can support, and the more people they can carry."

"As a divine lord, you must have many good things."

"In that case, I can rest assured."

In Apocalypse's vision, success meant the Blood Sea Demon Clan would disappear, freeing them from the threat of war, preventing them from being punished by Heaven, and allowing them to be with their loved ones forever.

If it fails, all we can do is pack up the bucket and run away.

Gu Qing even thoughtfully designed a boat for their escape; everything was ready except for the final push.

What reason would he have not to agree?

"Your divine avatar should go back and deliver the information to your main body. I will wait for him to come here in the sacrificial temple."

"Okay." (End of Chapter)
