After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 945 The Half-Immortal Body is Complete!

"Heavenly Realm?"

Chen Yang's expression was one of astonishment. "Wasn't it said that after the Heavenly Road was severed, there would be no more Celestial Realm beings?"

Xuan Tong nodded slightly, "That may be true, but that secret realm is a world unto itself, perhaps able to withstand the forces of heaven and earth, providing a place for cultivators at the Celestial Realm to reside?"

"Of course, this is just my guess. The truth is unknown. Just be careful once you go in..."

……

"it is good."

Chen Yang responded and took the matter to heart. "Master, when will the Nine Elders Cave open?"

"The day after tomorrow, the third day of the eighth lunar month!"

Xuantong said, "The temple will contact you in advance. Since you've decided to go, don't wander around these next few days. Stay in Emei and get yourself in good shape..."

Chen Yang didn't say anything more, nodded in agreement, and then prepared to leave.

But suddenly, the Mountain Demon Seal hanging on his chest released a burst of warmth.

Chen Yang paused for a moment, then said to Xuan Tong, "Master, I also have something to tell you."

"Go ahead."

Xuan Tong looked at Chen Yang with great composure.

Chen Yang took the Mountain Yu Seal down and held it in both hands. "I wonder if the master knows the Five Thunder Immortal of Songhe Temple..."

"The Five Thunder Master?"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Tong's eyes flickered slightly. "Master Ye Yunting?"

Chen Yang nodded and presented the Mountain Demon Seal to Xuan Tong. "He has had a rather miserable life these past few years, with only his primordial spirit remaining. I ran into him by chance some time ago, and he said he knew you, Master, and had long wanted me to bring him to see you, but unfortunately you have been in seclusion..."

Xuan Tong took the Mountain Yu Seal in both hands and immediately probed it with his primordial spirit.

Xuan Jing stood to the side and looked at Chen Yang strangely. He knew that Chen Yang was accompanied by a spirit, but he did not expect it to be his senior brother's old friend.

Time passed by minute by minute.

It's unclear what Xuan Tong and the Five Thunder Immortal were discussing.

It took Xuan Tong quite a while to withdraw his primordial spirit.

The Mountain Seal was returned to Chen Yang.

"Master, Elder Ye, he..."

"Songhe Temple has declined now, and he has nowhere else to go. Let him stay with you for now. Later, I will talk to Shenxiao Sect and Zixia Temple about this matter. The three sects are closely connected and should not sit idly by. Then, we can think of a way together to see if we can get him to switch to cultivating the primordial spirit path. As for his physical body, forget about it..."

"it is good."

Since Xuan Tong had already reached an agreement with the Five Thunder Immortal, Chen Yang had nothing more to say.

Xuan Tong said, "There is still a primordial spirit in your seal, which does not seem to be human."

Chen Yang nodded and gave them a brief account of the Three Corpse Divine Tree.

Xuan Tong didn't say anything, but he reminded him, "When dealing with these spiritual creatures, it's best to be careful."

He spoke these words without any hesitation or fear that the Three Corpse Tree would hear him. “This tree has an extraordinary origin and has committed many acts of killing. If you can guide it to goodness, it will be a meritorious deed. But you must be wary of people, especially spiritual beings of this level. You should be aware of this.”

"The Nine Elders Cave Secret Realm cannot accommodate them. You will have to leave them outside, otherwise you too will be restricted and unable to enter the secret realm..."

"Yes."

Chen Yang nodded slightly; he understood this principle without Xuan Tong needing to remind him.

……

-

It was late at night when Chen Yang came out of Huazang Temple. The temperature at the Golden Summit was already quite cold. A gust of cold wind made Chen Yang feel refreshed and invigorated.

He did not stay overnight at Huazang Temple, but followed Xuanjing back to Tianhua Zen Temple.

“It’s not easy for the Nine Elders Cave to open once, so you have to seize this opportunity. Try to be as prepared as possible in the next two days. There will probably be seventy or eighty disciples going in together. Since you are stronger, try to help them out.”

On the way down the mountain, Xuan Jing and Chen Yang chatted casually.

"Seventy or eighty people? That many?" Chen Yang was a little surprised.

Xuan Jing said, "Although there are opportunities within the secret realm, dangers also accompany them. We don't plan to let disciples who haven't entered the Spirit Realm, or even those in the early stages of the Spirit Realm, go in. They still need to have some ability to protect themselves..."

"Besides the younger generation of disciples, there will also be some spots for older disciples who have never been to the secret realm, as well as some lay practitioners who are staying temporarily. All things considered, seventy or eighty people is not a lot..."

"So, Master Yuanlong is also going in."

"That's natural."

Xuan Jing nodded, "Yuan Long's strength is already enough to break through to the Dao True Realm, but he has been suppressing his cultivation level. His main purpose is to think about when the Nine Elders Cave will open..."

Yuan Long is going. There are quite a few people in Emei who have reached the Creation Realm, plus some in the Spirit Realm, making a total of seventy or eighty people, which is indeed not many.

"Someone from Qing Shen will probably come too. In addition, a few spots will be reserved for other close sects. All told, there will be about a hundred people who will have the opportunity to enter the Nine Elders Cave Secret Realm this time..."

“I’m afraid I can’t take care of so many people, especially since Master Xuantong has given me a task,” Chen Yang said.

Xuan Jing said, "I only asked you to look after them a little, not to follow them all the time. With so many people going in, they must have been divided into areas for exploration. Many places inside have already been explored, but after more than a hundred years of recuperation, it must be a completely different scene inside. Anyway, if they encounter danger and you happen to be there, try your best to save them..."

"This is quite simple."

Chen Yang nodded and said no more.

The two returned to Tianhua Temple at midnight.

Chen Yang arrived at the meditation room, intending to cultivate for a while, but his heart was moved.

In a short while, a seal appeared in Chen Yang's hand.

Seal of the Lord of Shushan Mountain.

At this moment, the Mountain Lord Seal felt slightly warm, indicating that someone was contacting him.

Chen Yang probed into it with his spiritual power.

Suddenly, a surge of spiritual energy converged on Chen Yang.

Du Fengchun!

The seal of the mountain god bears only the spiritual imprint of Du Fengchun.

"Master, it has contacted me!"

Soon, Du Fengchun's voice appeared in Chen Yang's ears.

"That rat?" Chen Yang asked immediately.

Almost instantly, Du Fengchun contacted him at this moment, which could only be because of that rat.

"Correct."

Du Fengchun nodded. "He's at Si'e Mountain. I just finished hiking through Sipan Mountain and Er'e Mountain, and I'm currently at the foot of Si'e Mountain. I was planning to go up Si'e Mountain tomorrow, but who would have thought that it would contact me on its own initiative..."

"The specific time and place?"

"It told me to go up the mountain tomorrow night and wait for it at the top of Mount Si'e. It will come to find me then!"

"Tomorrow night?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang pondered for a moment and decided that it would be good to deal with the big black rat before entering the Nine Elders Cave Secret Realm.

Du Fengchun asked, "What should I do next?"

"Since it wants to see you, then go see it. According to our original plan, you should find a way to get it to take the pill yourself..."

"I... I've never done anything like this before, I'm afraid it will find out..."

"What's so difficult about that? Its lifespan is almost up, so it's perfectly reasonable for you to find it a longevity-extending medicine. You can then tell it that after it goes to Kunlun, the Pingtian Sect Master will bestow generous gifts upon it. It can't possibly disbelieve you. Just relax and take advantage of the time you still have to practice your acting skills..."

They even need Chen Yang to teach them this kind of thing; it's driving Chen Yang crazy.

"Remember, don't try anything funny, or no one can save you."

"Don't worry, Master, I will definitely handle things well."

Du Fengchun was disgruntled. After Chen Yang explained some things, he broke off the contact.

……

In the meditation room, Chen Yang pondered for a moment.

Mount Si'e?

I was right.

This beast was probably after Zhao Quanzhen's tomb on Mount Si'e, but since the tomb was probably empty and it had nothing left to do, it took the initiative to contact Du Fengchun.

In any case, it's up to Du Fengchun now.

If he can successfully get the rat to take the Mind-Dispelling Pill, then the matter will be more than half successful.

I don't need to show my face for the time being.

If they were to go to Mount Si'e now, let alone whether they could find the rat, even with Chen Yang's strength, it would probably be difficult to kill it. If the rat was determined to escape, Chen Yang would have no ability to catch it.

Should we ask someone else for help?

In the entire Emei Sect, apart from Xuantong, probably no one else could catch this rat.

No matter how many people come, if it wants to run away, it can just burrow underground, and who can stop it?

This beast is even more cunning and troublesome than the spiritual plant. As for Xuan Tong, he's determined to stay at the Golden Summit and probably won't move easily.

As things stand, it's best to let Du Fengchun handle this. At worst, he'll be exposed, or at worst, he'll be killed.

Whether this person lives or dies, Chen Yang doesn't care.

……

-

Silent all night.

The next morning, Chen Yang felt a sense of unease and went to the backyard of Tianhua Zen Temple. He took a futon, sat down in the middle of the courtyard, and began to cultivate the Marrow Cleansing Scripture.

The sixth chapter of the Marrow Cleansing Classic, the Immaculate Chapter, is nearing completion.

He had used up all the Marrow Cleansing Pills he had, but he was still a little short of achieving the perfect half-immortal body.

He was not a Dao Realm expert, and could not generate the Immaculate Qi within his body. He could only cultivate the Immaculate Qi through the Immaculate Chapter of the Marrow Cleansing Scripture to cleanse his physical body.

The key problem is that as long as he hasn't entered the Dao True Realm, his immaculate body will keep regressing, like a boat going against the current. He can only cultivate the Marrow Cleansing Scripture to stop this regression.

During this time, thanks to the Marrow Cleansing Pills rewarded by the system, he was almost at the point of achieving the Immaculate Body, but he was still just a tiny bit short.

From morning until noon, Chen Yang was completely focused on mastering the Immaculate Body, determined to perfect it today.

When he was cultivating the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, he absorbed the power of Yang to temper his body, but today's sunlight is relatively gentle and not very effective.

……

Xuanjing and Huang Daolin watched from afar from the veranda in the backyard.

"I heard from Faxiang Temple that this kid obtained their Marrow Cleansing Scripture, and I didn't quite believe it. But now it seems they weren't wrong about him. This kid is almost at the Dao True Realm, why is he putting in so much effort to cultivate the Immaculate Body? Once he breaks through to the Dao True Realm, the Immaculate Body will come naturally..."

Xuan Jing shook his head repeatedly. In his opinion, Chen Yang's actions were of little significance.

Originally, once you enter the Dao True Realm, the true essence in your body will naturally enter a state of purity. After cultivating for a period of time, your physical body will naturally become pure. Why would you need to spend so much effort and mental energy at this time?

He was well aware of how difficult it was to cultivate the Immaculate Body at the Creation Realm. Even with a divine skill manual like the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, it would still take an enormous amount of time to cultivate. If he wanted to achieve it in a short period of time, he would have to consume a huge amount of cultivation resources.

Spending so much time, energy, and resources on this is a complete waste.

After all, you have so much time, energy, and resources. If you put them all into improving your realm, you might be able to quickly reach the Dao True Realm and then cultivate an Immaculate Body.

Unless you believe you have no hope of breaking through to the Dao True Realm, doing this might have some value.

But does Chen Yang seem unable to break through to the Dao True Realm?
"He must have his own reasons."

Huang Daolin smiled and said, "If you cultivate the Immaculate Body ahead of time, you may receive greater benefits when you break through to the Dao True Realm in the future. Moreover, there will be no period of weakness during the transformation. This little guy has already formed his primordial spirit and reached the required state of mind. Apart from the fact that his cultivation flower has not yet bloomed and his realm has not broken through, he is actually not much different from the Dao True Realm. Let him be. Let him do whatever he wants."

Hyun Jung shook her head helplessly and waved to Hwang Can, who was also watching from a distance.

Huang Can rushed over, "Master, what are your instructions?"

Xuan Jing reached into his monk's robe and pulled out a small porcelain bottle, handing it to Huang Can, "Send this to Chen Yang."

Huang Can was stunned for a moment. He thought that Xuan Jing liked him and was going to give him a pill. He was disappointed.

"okay."

He nodded and quickly ran towards the center of the yard.

……

Chen Yang cultivated for a whole morning, even during the time when the Yang energy was at its strongest, but he was still just a little short of achieving the Immaculate Body, which made him want to give up.

But they were unwilling to give up. If they didn't seize the opportunity now, they would face the same situation again next time.

Moreover, he also had to spend some time every day practicing the Marrow Cleansing Classic to ensure that the perfection of his body did not regress.

"Chen Yang……"

Huang Can's voice came from beside me.

It's also thanks to Chen Yang's ability to multitask.

He opened his eyes while circulating the Marrow Cleansing Classic.

Huang Can stood in front of him, holding a porcelain bottle in her hand, and handed it to him, saying, "Master Xuanjing asked me to give this to you."

Chen Yang nodded slightly, said nothing, and simply reached out to take it.

Unscrew the cap, and inside are two pills sealed with beeswax.

Two Marrow Cleansing Pills.

Chen Yang's eyes brightened slightly as he looked towards Xuan Jing and the other person in the corner of the corridor.

It seems they've been watching for a long time, and couldn't stand it anymore, so they've come to offer some help.

He was cultivating at the moment, so he couldn't get up to express his gratitude. Instead, he crushed the wax coating of a Marrow Cleansing Pill and swallowed it directly.

Once the pill entered the stomach, its medicinal power surged forth, like a torrent spreading throughout the body.

Chen Yang quickly activated the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, frantically cleansing his entire body.

……

Time passed by minute by minute.

About half an hour later, Chen Yang's blood and qi suddenly fluctuated violently, and an invisible force was released instantly, spreading to the surroundings.

The flowers and plants in the yard were blown about by the force of the wind.

Xuan Jing and Huang Daolin both felt their blood and qi suddenly boil.

Huang Can, standing behind the two, was also instantly aroused by this aura and retreated.

Become!

A moment later, Chen Yang's blood and qi quickly receded, and his entire body, from the inside out, from bone marrow to bones, to internal organs, to flesh and blood, and then to skin, was cleansed.

Once the Immaculate Body is fully perfected, even if one no longer cultivates the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, the Immaculate Energy will naturally and continuously generate within the flesh and blood, so there is no need to worry about the possibility of degeneration.

I pulled up the system panel and took a look.

-

Name: Chen Yang

Physical strength: 64125.

Mental power: 57580/57580.

Yuan Shen: 20810.

Experience value: 892505/2000000
-

His physical strength actually increased by 10000 points.

A basic physical enhancement of 100 levels.

Although other stats didn't increase much, his physique actually soared by 100 grades after he mastered the Immaculate Body, something he never expected.

I was overjoyed.

It is certain that this is only the beginning. In the next few days, as the Immaculate Body is perfected and further consolidated, the physique should improve even further.

"call……"

With a long sigh of relief, Chen Yang finished his practice, stood up, and walked towards Xuan Jing and Huang Daolin.

"Thank you for the elixir, Master."

Chen Yang returned the porcelain bottle. There were two pills inside; he had only used one, leaving one remaining.

Now that he has achieved the perfect purity of body, the Marrow Cleansing Pill is no longer of any use to him.

Even if one cultivates the seventh chapter in the future, the Marrow Cleansing Pill will be useless.

Xuan Jing took the pills, looked Chen Yang up and down, and wanted to complain, but she held back and asked instead, "To cultivate a half-immortal body at the Creation Realm, how many pills did you use?"

Chen Yang said, "Before Elder Xue Chonghua passed away, he left me 120 Nirvana Pills, plus some Marrow Refining and Cleansing Pills I obtained from elsewhere. If you take them all, there are probably around 150 pills of the same level as Nirvana Pills..."

"150?"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Jing's eyes nearly rolled to the sky; he didn't know what to say.

Pills like Nirvana Pill and Marrow Cleansing Pill are extremely precious. For an ordinary person, obtaining even one is considered a stroke of luck. But Chen Yang went and gave up 150 of them for the sake of a half-immortal body.

That's fucking amazing.

Even if you raided all the top-tier sects like Emei, Faxiang Temple, and Zixia Temple, you still might not be able to gather so many of these kinds of secret medicines.

This kid is really willing to spend money.

No, it should be said that Xue Chonghua was generous; he even specially reserved so many Nirvana Pills for Chen Yang.

If this were left to Emei and given to its disciples for the Yi Jing and Marrow Cleansing Ceremony, it would probably transform the innate qualities of countless disciples.

Xuan Jing opened her mouth, intending to reprimand Chen Yang, telling him to pay more attention to cultivating his mind and not to focus solely on improving his physique, lest he be devoured by the power.

However, considering that this kid's state of mind had already reached the Dao True Realm, he immediately swallowed his words.

Give this kid some more encouragement and let him cultivate his mental state, and he'll reach the mid-stage of the Dao Realm, just like me.

It's still a bit infuriating to think about it. I've spent half my life cultivating myself, and over a hundred years of living a life of quiet contemplation, yet my achievements are still inferior to this kid's.

Amitabha!
Xuan Jing shook her head repeatedly, suppressing her anger. People can't be compared. People say that hard work pays off, but in the face of true talent, some efforts really seem ridiculous.
