Evergreen Immortal.

Chapter 785 Sitting in Oblivion
"He who knows what Heaven does and what man does is the ultimate! He who knows what Heaven does is born of Heaven. He abandons his limbs, discards his intelligence, separates himself from form and knowledge, and becomes one with the Great Void. This is called sitting in oblivion."

Li Rui clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and a faint blue light emanated from his heart.

【Sitting in Oblivion Abyss】

He opened up the Crimson Palace Grotto-Heaven and entered the [Sitting in Oblivion Abyss] as its master.

【Zhenwu Lin】is external, mainly about killing and warfare, while 【Zuowang Yuan】is internal, mainly about pursuing the spirit.

One is in charge of internal affairs, and the other is in charge of external affairs.

This is also why Li Rui chose these two Dao Seeds.

Although the [Sitting in Oblivion Abyss] is not good at killing, it is one of the very few Dao seeds that are related to cause and effect. When cultivated to the highest level, it can even reverse cause and effect.

It is truly mysterious.

It complements the [True Martial Arrival] perfectly.

As for the last of the three Dao Seeds, the [Immortal Camellia], which has not yet entered the cave heaven, it can be ranked later because of the multiple proofs of the Primordial Myriad Daos.

It's even fine to wait until after the True Lord to get the certificate.

After all, no matter how long you live, you still need to protect it.

The foundation of his immortal and divine primordial spirit gradually revealed its power. He nurtured his Dao Seeds much faster than other cultivators, and he still had plenty of energy left to nurture two Dao Seeds at the same time.

This is also why his senior brother, Wuzhong Daojun, places such importance on the foundation.

If the foundation is unstable, no matter how many grotto-heavens or Dao seeds one possesses, once they are nurtured, their lifespan will be exhausted, and all of that will be in vain.

Otherwise, why would even a genius like his senior brother, Daojun Wuzhong, feel that his lifespan was not enough?

He once believed that no one but himself could nurture so many Dao seeds at the same time.

"Suppressant"

Li Rui pondered silently.

Now all that's missing is a talisman.

In fact, he had been keeping an eye on things in secret, but both [True Martial Arrival] and [Sitting in Oblivion Abyss] were too niche, making it difficult to find the perfect amulet.

These magical artifacts are either yet to be created or have been hidden away in the vaults of various powerful forces.

There is nowhere to be found.

Can only wait.

Even Li Rui had made preparations.

If no suitable object can be found, then force the fusion directly using the power of multiple proofs of the Dao.

His senior brother had done this before.

It just takes a little longer.

If other cultivators knew about this idea, they would be utterly astonished. Forcibly merging with another being is practically defying the heavens.

of course.

This is the last resort.

Li Rui is too young; he has plenty of time to find a suitable talisman.

Moreover, the opening of the Ascension Platform presents him with an excellent opportunity.

another side.

Sanqing Prefecture, Lingyuan County.

On a desolate mountain where black winds howl and not a blade of grass grows.

"You brat, are you really determined to become a demonic cultivator?"

Zhu Yuanlong looked at Li Rui's clone, Lu Yang.

"So what?"

Li Rui chuckled.

He came to Sanqing Prefecture, did nothing else but use demonic cultivation methods to turn the sect leader of a mid-level demonic sect into a puppet, and quietly became the Supreme Elder of this demonic sect.

'Sanqing Prefecture is wonderful!'

The Sanqing Sect has always governed by non-interference and never interferes in the affairs of the prefectures and counties.

All you need to do is pay the annual offerings.

After all, Taoist masters are busy cultivating immortality, so they don't have much time to manage worldly affairs.

of course.

The Sanqing Sect doesn't interfere in other matters, but they make an exception for demonic cultivators.

The reason is simple: the demonic cultivators do not pay offerings.

Previously, Li Rui's Demonic Sect had been pursued by the Three Pure Ones Sect no less than ten times, and several sect leaders had died.

But after today, that will no longer be the case.

"Ancestor!"

A hoarse voice rang out. A shifty-eyed man rushed into the main hall, his eyes gleaming with excitement: "The people from the Three Pure Ones Sect have arrived!"

It's truly rare to see a demonic cultivator so overjoyed to see people from the Three Pure Ones Sect come knocking on his door.

"please come in."

Li Rui burst into laughter.

Before long, a middle-aged Taoist priest walked in with seven or eight young Taoist priests.

The middle-aged Taoist priest looked Li Rui up and down, then cupped his hands in greeting: "Fellow Daoist Lu, your repentance and reformation are the greatest virtues. Our Sanqing Sect has always been benevolent. From today onwards, there will be no more demonic sects on Luowu Mountain. We hope that you will repent and never again commit acts of causing bloodshed."

"Yes Yes."

Li Rui nodded, and at the same time, winked at the man next to him.

The man immediately understood.

Immediately, more than ten beautiful young women, all fully grown and ready, entered carrying jade boxes.

Not only the middle-aged Taoist priest, but even the disciples of the Three Pure Ones Sect all received a share.

Seeing that this demonic cultivator surnamed Lu was so compliant.

The middle-aged Taoist's imposing aura of "keep away, strangers" dissipated considerably in an instant.

“I see that Fellow Daoist Lu has changed his appearance. From now on, the area within a hundred miles of Luowu Mountain will be under Fellow Daoist Lu’s jurisdiction.”

"Fellow Daoist, please remember that other matters are minor, but failing to pay offerings can cause serious trouble."

after that.

Li Rui then exchanged pleasantries with the middle-aged Taoist priest.

The group from the Three Pure Ones Sect left satisfied, not forgetting to take the young women with them as they departed.

Li Rui watched the group fly away before the smile on his lips gradually faded.

Turn over a new leaf?

Bloodshed and devastation?

As far as he knew, the number of people killed by the Luowu Demon Sect was far less than that killed by the subordinate forces of the Sanqing Sect.

In the cultivation world, those who kill a lot are considered demonic sects, while those who don't kill are considered immortal sects.

That's all.

His true form remains one of the top thirty most notorious demons in Taihua Prefecture.

The reason the Sanqing Sect sent people was because he had used his connections and promised to offer double the tribute.

This is the root.

From now on, the Luowu Demon Sect and the Luowu Immortal Sect will be the legitimate immortal cultivation sects within this radius of a hundred miles.

He, Lu Yang, is a legitimate ancestor of the Immortal Sect.

Zhu Yuanlong looked at Li Rui and couldn't help but ask, "What exactly are you trying to achieve by doing this, kid?"

It's not that it's impossible to whitewash demonic cultivators, but it's unnecessary.

It's all for cultivation resources.

Paying money to buy a residency status now offers absolutely no benefit; it's a complete loss.

Otherwise, wouldn't all the demonic cultivators in the world have been exonerated?

Li Rui chuckled: "We're family, so it's fine to talk. Think about it, in this life I'm a demonic cultivator, and I'm already in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Once I become a True Lord, can I go and steal other True Lords?"

"It won't last long."

"As far as I know, the Sanqing Sect possesses the power of enlightenment. If I were to reincarnate with resources and then be enlightened by the Sanqing Sect..."

Zhu Yuanlong narrowed his eyes slightly: "You are the genius of the Sanqing Sect."

"Yep."

Li Rui smiled more.

Reincarnation is a skill.

Zhu Yuanlong exclaimed, "Good heavens! Lu Yang hasn't even broken through the secret of the womb yet. He's so young, he has at least five or six hundred years left to live. It's the perfect time for him to make great progress, and he's already planning for his next life."

He couldn't help but think.

If he hadn't insisted on proving himself back then, but instead reincarnated into a supreme sect, wouldn't he have already become a Dao Lord?

But he quickly dismissed the idea.

It is incompatible with one's temperament.

The higher one's spiritual realm, the more important it is to have clear and unobstructed thoughts.

Otherwise, no matter how many opportunities you have, they will be useless.

On the other hand, it seemed perfectly natural for Lu Yang to do such a thing.

"The demonic cultivator is truly shameless."
