The immortals of the two worlds started from farming and refining pills.

Chapter 194: Mysterious Mystery, The Way of Narcissus (First Update)
Sang Yuwan opened the jade box and found an amber-like gem inside.

In the middle of the gem, there was a silver seed, shaped like an almond, with a dragon-shaped shadow wandering on the surface.

Li Qing swept his spiritual sense over it and felt that the seed's aura was sharp, but also had a hint of a true dragon, which faintly shocked his spiritual sense.

"Is this the spiritual seed of Jiaziming Dragon Wood? It is indeed extraordinary." Niu Xinjing had already exclaimed in amazement.

Sang Yuwan nodded slightly: "This is the most precious, yet most useless specialty of the Huangsha Secret Realm."

"It is rumored that the Qingli Master of Yanling Valley has tried to grow it many times, but unfortunately to no avail."

"In Xuan Palace, I heard that the National Master opened up a secret realm on his own, where he set his own sequence, operated the sun and the moon, and planted this spiritual seed. I just don't know if it worked..."

Li Qing was slightly surprised: "Open up a secret realm? Isn't that a great power that only a spirit can possess? Could it be that the State Master..."

Sang Yuwan shook her head: "Neither the imperial court nor the Xuan Palace has announced it, so I dare not speak rashly. But the state teacher does have the power to open up a secret realm."

Li Qing and Niu Xinjing looked at each other, their eyes full of shock and expectation.

The secret realms in the world of cultivation are all small realms that are independent of the main world and operate independently, with their own specific operating rules.

Just like the Xuanjing Secret Realm, it can produce black crystals and at the same time prohibit the growth of all plants.

Another example is the Qingxia Secret Realm, where the essence of rosy clouds is produced, and everything in the sky and water is green.

Li Qing's earthly immortal world is still attached to the main world for the time being, but after being promoted to the blessed land, it will be able to isolate the inside and the outside, and have the atmosphere of a secret realm.

If you wait for the blessed land to be promoted to a cave heaven, hanging high in the void, watching the ups and downs of the world of cultivation, then it will be the top secret realm.

The secret realm hastily opened up by the Divine Transformation cultivator is simply incomparable to the Earthly Immortal Cave.

Even if it is carefully cultivated to a size that is not inferior to that of a cave heaven, it can only be used as a special spiritual field or cave dwelling.

He cannot, like the Lord of the Cave Heaven, gather the power of the Cave Heaven in one body to resist foreign demons and suppress rebellion.

Despite this, the news that the national teacher was suspected to have become a god still made Li Qing look forward to it.

It should be noted that the Great Zhou Kingdom does not occupy much territory in Qinghe Continent, Southern Region, and Qingzhou, and there is only one Yuanying Zhenjun, the National Master.

In the surrounding countries of Dayu, Dayu, and Dayin, the number of Yuanying True Lords ranges from two to four, which is far more than that of the Great Zhou.

Fortunately, the national teacher has a high level of cultivation. He swept across Qingzhou and dominated the southern region. He is also one of the strongest men in Qinghe Continent. This is how he can protect the Great Zhou from being invaded.

If the national teacher can go one step further and achieve the state of incarnation, then the cultivators of the Great Zhou Kingdom will also be able to get a bigger share in this era of great contention.

"Brother Daoist, you are so well-informed. The rumor that Yanglong Lake and Xuan Palace have a close relationship is indeed true!" Li Qing reacted and sighed.

The Yanglong Lake occupied by the Sang family today is the spiritual land that was granted to them after the ancestor of the Sang family handed over the fragments of the secret method of raising dragons to Yuanying Zhenjun.

This imperial decree was endorsed by Xuan Palace, which made it much more legitimate than the Li family occupying Qinghe Valley or the Niu family occupying Xinghua Village.

Sang Yuwan smiled and shook her head: "We can only say this when we are chatting. I won't recognize you outside this hall."

After seeing the Jiaziming Dragon Wood and hearing the secrets about the national teacher, Li Qing asked Sang and Niu.

"The banquet is over, but you two brothers have not left yet. I wonder if there is anything else you want to discuss?"

Niu Xinjing looked around and dismissed the younger generations of the Niu family, and Sang Yuwan did the same.

Li Qing had an idea, and he followed suit, ordering other members of the Li family to leave the hall and entertain the two families.

When there were only three people left in the hall, Li Qingfang activated the Earthly Immortal Realm to isolate the surroundings. Niu Xinjing then asked solemnly, "Daoyou Li, what do you know about the second-level secret realm?"

Li Qing raised his eyebrows and said, "A second-level secret realm is no different from a first-level secret realm, except that the cultivators who enter have cultivation levels no higher than foundation building. It's just that the rewards are more abundant."

"Now, most of the second-level secret realms in the Great Zhou Kingdom have been occupied by the imperial court, the Xuan Palace, and the Jindan Sect. The only one that we, the cultivators of Xuefeng Lake, can get close to is the Yellow Sand Secret Realm."

"It's just that the Yellow Sand Secret Realm will still be open for seven years. This shouldn't be what you two Taoist brothers want to talk about, right?"

Niu Xinjing nodded: "Of course it is not the Huangsha Secret Realm, but a secret realm that Brother Sang Dao and I have just discovered."

Li Qing was stunned for a moment: "No one else knows? Do you two want to invite me to explore the secret together?"

Sang Yuwan took over the conversation: "That's right. The secret realm is about to be revealed, and it requires three human foundation-building cultivators to work together to enter."

"According to the information we have found, this secret realm is related to the ancient Narcissus. You need to master a kind of spiritual water to enter and gain opportunities."

"Narcissus inheritance? This is really rare!" Li Qing was slightly surprised when he heard it.

The world of cultivation has a long history, with recorded history going back more than 30,000 years.

During the reign of Emperor Yuan, before the six major realms of cultivation were established, namely, Qi training, foundation building, Dan formation, Nascent Soul, Spirit transformation, and Return to Void, the ways of cultivation in the world of cultivation were flourishing and a hundred schools of thought contended.

This Narcissus Taoism was once very popular.

It is said that those who practice this way need to use a kind of spiritual water as a guide before they can embark on the path of the way. Then they can refine it while cultivating more spiritual water.

If one kind of spiritual water is cultivated, it is comparable to the foundation-building stage, three kinds are comparable to the elixir-forming stage, six kinds are comparable to the golden infant stage, and nine kinds are not inferior to the god-transforming stage.

If one could cultivate twelve kinds of spiritual water and blend them into one, he would become a sixth-rank great power on par with Taoist Master Fanxu.

However, unlike the way of earthly immortals, which is still practiced by some people today, the way of water immortals seems to be envied by the gods.

Anyone who practices this way and touches the Three Waters Combination and wants to rival the Golden Elixir will be punished by heaven and will not stop until he dies.

It is rumored that in the northern region of Qinghe Continent, there was a man of extraordinary talent. Because he practiced the way of Narcissus, he was struck by 234 heavenly thunders and eventually turned to ashes.

Since then, in the world of cultivation, there are many cultivators who have mastered one or two kinds of spiritual water, and there is no one who is stubborn enough to practice this method.

Li Qing couldn't help but frown: "The way of Narcissus is envied by the heavens. Is this secret realm unlucky?"

He is now on the orthodox path, with the support of the spiritual rice of water and fire. Maybe he will be able to follow the path of "refining the golden elixir with water and fire" in the future.

Practicing the way of earth immortality, with the help of elves, as well as the Green Lotus Spirit Root and the Black and Yellow Spirit Fish, there is a great hope of becoming the master of the blessed land.

In addition, he also obtained the external alchemy method of "Suzaku Lihuo Pill" in Lingtao Secret Realm. Once this pill is made, although it is of no benefit to the cultivator himself, its power is comparable to that of a pill.

With these three safeguards, Li Qing really had no interest in the inheritance of Narcissus, and even had some taboos about it.

Sang Yuwan smiled and said, "We are going to the secret realm to search for treasures, not to become the heir of Narcissus. Just take the treasures and leave. Why bother with other things?"

Niu Xinjing also said: "According to our investigation, there is a large pool of light spirit water in the secret realm. If we can get it, it will be a great help to fellow Taoist's spiritual planting."

Li Qing thought so too, and with the minor magical power granted by the Tianwei Gate, he could come and go freely in the secret realm, so he agreed to the two people's request.

"May I ask you two Taoist brothers, when will this secret realm be opened?"

"In a year."
