Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

That alone is a great opportunity.

Just as the Kunlun Immortal Mountain calculates the astronomy and geography of other realms and summarizes the laws and order, its purpose is definitely for the sake of the Dao.

Gu Qing was the same way.

From nothing to something, a great divine technique! Having already stood at the pinnacle of the Cangwu Realm, after spending a large amount of artifact points to replenish the lifespan consumed, everything returned to normal.

With a soft laugh, Gu Qing vanished.

Leize Immortal Mountain.

They passed by without showing themselves to pay their respects, only glancing at the place from afar before continuing their search for the strange fire.

He subdued the [Nine Heavens Thunderfire] and [Supreme Purple Qi Flame] in the Eastern Wilderness.

In the blink of an eye, they went to the Endless Domain under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Sword Immortal Mountain.

【Taiyi Golden Flame】, 【Tianshan Sword Qi Fire】.

Then there is the ancient domain under the jurisdiction of Taihe Immortal Mountain.

【Golden Dragon and Silver Flames】, 【Boundless Heavenly Flames】.

Wherever he went, he gained a lot. The location of the strange fire that Wan Yantian and his group confirmed saved him hundreds of years of detours, allowing him to comprehend the laws of fire without arduous cultivation.

With the continuous help of the strange fire, he comprehended more laws, and the source of the fire law was condensed more easily than the source of the thunder law.

Later, they caught up and surpassed Thunder Source effortlessly.

It can be said that my presence can be found throughout the four seas and eight wastelands!

His cultivation at the fifth-grade lower level, the Golden Core Dao Fruit realm, allowed him to overtake others through the Flame Source, and the more places he went, the more exotic flames he refined.

The condensation of the flame magic source quickly exceeded 50%.

Once he reaches 100% and replicates the complete Law of Flame, he will have absolute dominance on this path.

The four stages of the fifth-rank Dao Lord realm are: Golden Elixir Dao Fruit, Dharma Possessing Primordial Spirit, Five Qi Converging to the Origin, and Grotto Heaven Immortal Garden.

Next step — [The Dharma has a primordial spirit]

One needs to take the supernatural powers at the perfect level to the next level, to communicate with the divine through the law, to transform techniques into primordial spirits, and to unleash a supernatural power that has the ability to fight autonomously, just like a living being.

It is also another sublimation of the power of the Dao Fruit, integrating more of the Mysterious Female of Creation, temporarily endowing it with the wisdom of a supernatural being.

This step is not far from Gu Qing's, who is currently busy collecting different kinds of fire and comprehending the rules of heaven and earth.

This process lasted for a full twenty years.

The power of the Primal Flame - Three Thousand Great Dao Flame thus surged, and the path of replicating the Flame Source once reached 90%, with only the last 10% needed to break through to the middle of the fifth rank.

Extremely fast.

The new laws and principles brought about by these strange flames will occupy Gu Qing's life for the next few hundred years.

Leaving aside the others, lightning, devouring, and a new void law are all laws he decided to completely replicate on the Golden Core Dao Fruit.

Breaking through a realm only requires meeting one standard.

To become stronger, the more laws he replicates and controls, the better. His next level of goal is also the remaining four of the Five Elements.
Whether the Five Elements Domain can evolve into a [Cave Heaven Immortal Garden] depends heavily on the Five Elements Laws, as almost every high-level cultivator has a profound understanding of the Five Elements.

This is an indispensable part of opening up the world of caves and heavens.

Of course, except for those with special methods of condensation, the five elements are the foundation of the world. All things in heaven and earth have the five elements, and even the three minor wonders are special attributes born from the combination of the five elements.

The final stop across the four seas and eight wastelands.

Gu Qing arrived in the Southern Wilderness, the place where he started his career. Besides seeing old friends, he also wanted to find Jiang Xi'er and ask for a wisp of the Azure Cloud Flame.

This fire possesses spatial power, which is the key to Gu Qing's enlightenment of the Void Law. He can also comprehend it on his own, but why not take the readily available shortcut?

We can't go back to Baiyue Mountain for the time being.

The Second Patriarch had a lot of opinions about him, but he would definitely be able to meet him properly at the Daojun meeting soon afterward, so there was no need to rush.

They temporarily settled in Xuefu City, near Baiyue Mountain.

Gu Qing sent a message to Lian Chutiangong, asking him to help gather his old friends for a reunion. Lian Chutiangong replied quickly, notifying them in no time and setting a meeting time three days later, but he arrived first.

"Gu Qing."

"Senior Lian Chu."

Gu Qing still cherished the kindness of those who had helped him, and personally cooked a meal to clear out the treasures in his Void Ring.

They prepared a sumptuous feast.

The air was filled with the aroma of wine. Since everyone at the banquet was a familiar face, there was no need for formalities, and the two began to drink.

The old man was very interested.

"The news of your return from the Void Battlefield, your establishment of the Qing Palace lineage in the Western Sea, and your breakthrough to the fifth rank has spread throughout the Baiyue Mountains."

"The Situ family, as well as Fu Liu's master and the entire lineage of the Twenty-Nine Ancestors, are terrified. They're trying to offer me and Old Man Jiang some benefits, hoping to reconcile with you."

"Tsk tsk—thanks to you, the old man is treated with great courtesy at the mountain gate."

Gu Qing couldn't help but chuckle.

"Your status is such that you are already among the patriarchs, so you should be treated with respect everywhere. It has little to do with me."

"You can't say that."

"Come, drink your fill—"

The old man and the young man chatted for a while before the three siblings Zhao Yuyang, Zhao Danya, and Zhao Yushan arrived. The former had been with Gu Qing for a longer time and was now at the upper level of the seventh rank.

The latter two entered the path of immortality much later, but thanks to the opportunities he provided, they have now reached the upper level of the eighth rank and are both much younger.

"Brother Gu."

"Boss Gu."

"Long time no see, let me drink first."

Although we hadn't seen each other for a long time, there was no awkwardness at all; we were very familiar with each other, just like when we first joined the Sword Forging Manor.

"Come---"

The third group of people arrived: Qi Qingyu, Huang Li, Chen Yin, and Yan Jiangyue, a brother and sister.

The fourth group of people, including Yue Ming, Li Qiufeng, Li Daoyang, Elder Yao, and others, were a group with whom they had a slightly more distant relationship, but were still quite close.

When Tai Kangxuan and Lian Feng met again, they had already broken through to the lower sixth rank and entered the Ancestral Hall. They were also Gu Qing's mentors who had actually taught him.

In the final wave, Elder Jiang Yuan and Jiang Xi'er arrived together, and Gu Qing immediately stood up to toast Elder Jiang.

This was the angel investor who helped him develop smoothly in his early stages. He greeted Jiang Xi'er but wasn't in a hurry to get down to business.

The agreed time has not arrived.

The hall was already full of guests, and Gu Qing could be considered to have achieved great success by now.

Meeting up with old friends, besides catching up, is also a chance to act as a treasure-giving boy, as the saying goes: "When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."

Although he couldn't give all of them the means to ascend, he could still greatly increase their potential and ceiling by sharing some benefits with them.

If given the right opportunity, ascension is uncertain, but breaking through to the sixth rank is still possible.

On Lian Chutian's side, Gu Qing gave away the inheritance of "Jinyun Weapon Ancestral Method", which is a treasure for weapon refiners. For the others, it was a treasure that was useful for cultivation.

The main items were grade eight and grade seven treasures, which were too numerous for him to use, so he might as well give them to his old friend.

The gifts given to Li Daoyang, Tai Kangxuan, and others who were of the sixth rank were all unique supernatural techniques.

Everyone accepted them.

By the time the three-day period actually arrived, the banquet was already coming to an end.

An unexpected guest arrived.
