Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Cultivation at the fifth-grade lower level, the Golden Core Dao Fruit realm.

It means engraving all the laws one has mastered onto the Golden Core, so that one can truly control it, even if one is separated from heaven and earth and exists in the ruleless void.

It can also generate Dharma from emptiness, unrestricted by the environment of heaven and earth.

It can be said that one transcends the Three Realms and is not bound by the Five Elements, thus possessing great power within oneself.

No matter where you are.

Whether constrained by the environment, by the laws of nature, or even in a place without laws, one can still use the power of laws. This is the domineering nature of the Golden Elixir Dao Fruit.

Gu Qing has mastered many laws, and in the future, due to the Devouring Dao and the Three Thousand Great Dao Flames, he will master even more laws.

In some ways, there is almost no end to cultivation in this realm.

It was destined that he would spend a lot of time, but this had little impact. Theoretically speaking, he could break through to the middle of the fifth rank by completely replicating a law.

The rest can be engraved.

Since the Golden Core has limited space, the best option is to first replicate the laws that have been 100% comprehended onto it; the smaller the better.

After trying it out...

After calculating the efficiency, it seemed that it would take a hundred years to completely replicate the Thunder Dao Law. This speed was very slow for Gu Qing, but for cultivators of the same realm in Cangwu, it was ridiculously fast.

In terms of spiritual practice, I only dabble in it.

After finishing a round of internal energy cultivation, Gu Qing hesitantly took out the Taotie head and communicated with the secret realm—Jinyun Hulu Island.

The familiar surroundings, the spiritual energy so rich it seemed to turn into mist.

South of Huludao, beneath the Qizu Pagoda.

Three rocking chairs were arranged in a row, and the three ferocious beasts Bashe, Jiuyouhuang Xiaobai, and Guhuoniao, who had transformed into human form, lay on them and rocked without expression.

Beside them was a beautiful little girl, dressed in a green dress, holding a plate of grapes, picking them one by one and feeding them to the three of them.

"Brother Bashe, open your mouth~"

"Sister Xiaobai, ah—"

"Auntie, here are your peeled and seeded ice grapes, and this... Wudao tea eggs."

Gu Qing had just arrived when he saw this scene and felt everything go black.

The long-unseen Bashe transformed into a boy of eight or nine years old. As for the chubby little girl, she was probably a leaf spirit that Gu Qing had conjured, and she had also transformed.

Why give up a perfectly good job as a baronet and become someone's servant?

"snort---"

Several unheard voices rang out, and Guhuoniao was startled, instinctively hiding the results of extracting leaf essence into her storage bag.

Upon seeing the even more handsome and dashing Gu Qing, he rushed straight towards him.

"Master, how come you've been gone for a hundred years? Guhuoniao misses you so much."

"hehe."

With a blank expression, he pushed her away. Xiao Bai quickly walked over, hugged Gu Qing's arm, and took a deep breath of the hot air.

"Brother, you smell so good~"

"Big brother!"

The Bashe lunged forward and slammed into Gu Qing's stomach. Its brute force was befitting of the powerful and ferocious Bashe.

Examine carefully.

The Nine Nether Phoenix is ​​the strongest, reaching the upper sixth rank.

Bashe is next, a lower sixth-rank official.

The Guhuoniao is third, holding the highest rank of the seventh grade.

Leaf Spirit, the youngest, a low-ranking seventh-grade spirit.

Judging solely by the rate of progress, Little Bashe made the fastest progress, followed by Ye Jing, and then Little Bai.

Ubume —

A century of breakthroughs and only two levels of attainment? Lazy!
"I shouldn't have subdued you in the first place. You don't work hard in your cultivation, you're lazy in your work, and you just eat and do nothing all day long."

"I'm reporting this!" Little Bashe shouted.

"It's my aunt who bullies Ye'er every day. I can't stand it anymore."

"Hehe, weren't you enjoying being fed by Ye'er just now?"

Gu Qing looked at the leaf spirit. While the others were very enthusiastic and familiar with him, the leaf spirit hadn't spoken since Gu Qing appeared.

He darted away and hid behind the rocking chair.

Facing the elven creature created by magic in the past, Gu Qing smiled, squatted down, and opened his arms.

"come on."

Ye'er then smiled and eagerly threw herself into Gu Qing's arms, gently nuzzling him.

"Master, I miss you so much."

The grace of being enlightened into a spirit is beyond compare to the gratitude owed to parents and children for giving them life; therefore, it is only right to be close to them.

For the next few days, Gu Qing stayed in the Jinyun Secret Realm, telling them about the changes over the years and the establishment of the Qing Palace.

“You’ve stayed in this secret realm long enough; it’s time to go out and explore.”

“Besides Ye’er and Xiao Ba, the other two of you will be working at the Qing Palace, especially Gu Huo Niao, you’ve gotten even fatter.”

He squinted and looked at the two large thunderbolts.

A dry cough.

The vocal cords of the Guhuoniao were sealed, and she was dragged away by Xiaobai amidst her angry resistance.

In the Jinyun Secret Realm, only Gu Qing remained.

Enter the top floor of the Ancestral Pagoda.

The Holy Ancestor's Fire Pool still flows with pure, magma-like energy. The Supreme Magic Treasure, the Heavy Mountain Seal, has been nurtured for a hundred years, and in terms of grade, it has reached the level of a low-grade Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure.

However, the effects of the mountain veins and the heart of the earth veins have not been fully digested yet, and it is estimated that it can be promoted to the middle grade.

He wasn't in a hurry to get it.

Once this treasure reappears, the Holy Ancestor Fire Pool will be placed in the Azure Palace. This item is of great help to cultivators practicing the Way of Fire, and it is also an essential item for the Yun Clan to cultivate the Zhu Rong lineage.

Yun Yuyan can use this to strengthen her foundation and truly activate the power of Zhu Rong's daughter's physique, thus possessing the qualifications to reach the top of the Cangwu cultivation world.

Having reached this point, the worries and concerns of the past are no longer an issue.

The second wife, Tu Shan Yue, has the bloodline of a nine-tailed fox, so there shouldn't be any problem for her to ascend to the True Immortal Realm in the future.

On the other hand, the first wife, Yun Yuyan, should also make progress simultaneously.

After checking and confirming that there were no problems, Gu Qing went to the place where the Enlightenment Tea Tree grew, where a lot of tea had been produced in the past hundred years.

Below, the Seven Treasures Gourd Vine, having received the baptism of Daoist energy, finally matured.

———【Gourd of Elixir】,【Gourd of Blood and Soul】,【Gourd of Severing the Dao】,【Gourd of Fixing the Wind】,【Gourd of Longevity】,【Gourd of the Netherworld】,【Gourd of Chaos】.

It is a treasure nurtured by the fifth-grade gourd vine.

Previously, Gu Qing could only refine them into top-grade magic weapons, but now he has the ability to refine them into heaven-reaching spiritual treasures.

Both the Longevity Gourd and the Blood Soul Gourd can enhance physical potential, strengthen life essence, prolong life, and even refine one's foundation.

The Netherworld Gourd is specifically designed to enhance the qualities of ghosts and spirits, and it is effective against creatures like the Guhuoniao and the Nine Nether Phoenix. It also has the added benefits of the Elixir Gourd.

The rare treasures derived from these artifacts can greatly enhance the potential of those around Gu Qing.

The gourd he valued, the Cleaving Path Gourd, and the Chaos Gourd.

The former has an additional offensive capability, which can be combined with the natal magic weapon [Demon and Ghost Twin Swords], making it perfect for refining into a sword-nurturing gourd.

The latter can absorb Yin and Yang energies and refine them into Chaos Energy, which is a great treasure.

As we all know, the world was created from chaos.

This energy surpasses almost 99% of all energy, and its innate Dao foundation is beyond the reach of cultivators. Gu Qing valued its essence, believing it could help him accelerate his cultivation speed towards the Golden Core Dao Fruit realm.
