Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 486 The Path of Cultivation Reaches Its End

After visiting the Qu Family Secret Realm, Lu Li left the location of the entrance to the Thousand Faces Mystery Realm and then departed.

Next, he needs to go to the Arctic Empire to find Ekaterina.

Following the guidance of the evil Hupa, Lu Li quickly found the secret realm where Ekaterina was located.

The Extreme Ice Empire is different from the Nine Provinces Alliance. Although there are many secret realms within the Extreme Ice Empire, very few of them are suitable for human habitation.

There are probably hundreds of secret realms within the Ice Empire, but only about thirty or forty are truly suitable for human habitation.

Moreover, within the Arctic Empire region, no one dared to cause trouble for the Ekaterina family.

It's worth mentioning that the Catherine family's secret realm was guarded, and he was discovered as soon as he arrived at the entrance.

Moreover, people have already moved out to live here.

Lu Li is quite prestigious in the Ice Empire. The trainer responsible for guarding the entrance to the secret realm recognized him immediately upon seeing him.

"Greetings, Your Highness." The guard of the secret realm bowed quickly upon seeing Lu Li.

Lu Li nodded and said, "I'm here to see your queen."

"Please follow me." The guard didn't mention reporting, but instead led the way.

Even the secret realm inhabited by the Catherine clan was a relatively cold place.

In fact, most of the secret realms of the Arctic Empire are extremely cold and unsuitable for human habitation.

When Lu Li saw Ekaterina again, he felt that she had gained a lot of weight.

and……

Lu Li glanced at Ekaterina's lower abdomen without making a sound.

My first thought was that I'd been cheated on?
However, after observing the little life through his Celestial Eye, Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief without making a sound.

They are biological children, and their ages match.

but……

Lu Li seemed to be thinking about something.

Normally, the stronger a cultivator is, the lower the probability of having offspring.

When he was with Ekaterina, he had already reached the Golden Core stage, and even a Golden Core cultivator could hit his target with a single strike.

Lu Li almost doubted whether he had a naturally born stallion physique.

"Lu Li, how did you find this place?" Ekaterina asked with surprise, while imagining in her mind Lu Li's feat of searching the entire world to find her.

Overwhelmed with emotion, Ekaterina threw herself into Lu Li's arms.

Lu Li had no idea what Ekaterina was thinking, but that didn't stop him from expressing his longing for her.

Gently embracing Ekaterina, the two slowly expressed their longing for each other.

They lingered for a moment.

Lu Li then began to explain his purpose.

Lu Li has always been straightforward with his women.

"Is the Extreme Ice Empire interested in joining the World Alliance?" Lu Li invited.

Ekaterina nodded without thinking, but quickly realized what she meant.
She is not Qu Suxin, and the Katerina family is not her sole authority.

"I personally agree, but the final decision depends on what the family thinks," Ekaterina said somewhat shyly.

Lu Li nodded. He had expected this, after all, although Catherine was the empress, some things could not be decided by her alone.

“You can go ask them,” Lu Li said.

Ekaterina nodded: "Then wait for me here for a while."

The decisive Catherine quickly found her mother, who, after hearing her daughter's account, immediately convened a family meeting.

“Now that the gods have retreated and the value of the real world has increased so much, it is indeed difficult for our Catherine family to maintain the Ice Empire.” One elder was more in favor of joining a stronger force.

The eldest elder asked in a low voice, "The question now is whether the Prince... the head of the family, is the stronger force, and whether he can protect the Catherine family for another 1000 years of glory."

“Yes, now that the gods have retreated, my husband is just a god trainer, he…”

Ekaterina stood up without hesitation to speak up for her husband: "My husband is also a legendary Pokémon trainer. Even if the gods have retired, he still has legendary Pokémon, and he is about to break through to the level of a first-level god."

Upon hearing this, everyone present thought of Deoxys.

"if so……"

“Moreover, joining the World Alliance has an even greater benefit, which is also related to our future.” Ekaterina quickly took out the Farm Union plan that Lu Li had handed her earlier.

“My husband holds the key to the next era. If our family doesn’t join in, we will eventually be eliminated.”

Mother Ye took the plan and read it. After a moment, she handed the plan to the elder next to her.

After everyone in the meeting room finished reading the plan, the objections gradually subsided.

“In that case, I agree to join the World Alliance.” The Grand Elder slowly raised his right hand.

With both power and interests as guarantees, almost no one rejected the proposal.

Seeing that her proposal was about to be approved, Ekaterina was overjoyed.

The plan to take over the Arctic Empire was much simpler than Lu Li had imagined.

After Ekaterina finished reporting the good news, Lu Li took out a map and gave it to her.

“This is a map showing the distribution of the entrances to the secret realms within the former Extreme Ice Empire. I hope you can integrate the entire Extreme Ice Empire as soon as possible,” Lu Li said.

Ekaterina, utterly astonished, exclaimed, "How did you do that?"

Keep in mind that this is a map showing the distribution of more than 40 secret realm entrances. Even if Lu Li had a divine beast with him, it would be impossible for him to figure out the distribution of all the secret realms in such a short time.

However, Ekaterina soon accepted this incredible thing with a clear conscience.

Perhaps the level one divine beasts possess unimaginable power.

“If you want to build a large alliance in the real world, there’s something that might help you,” Ekaterina suddenly said.

"What is it?" Lu Li asked Ekaterina curiously.

"Do you still remember the signal tower technology of the Star Wish Clan?" Ekaterina asked.

Lu Li asked in confusion, "Wasn't that a sensor tower built to search for the God of Wishes?"

Ekaterina shook her head, then explained, "That was actually a signal tower, and a signal tower made with a different kind of technology than modern ones."

"The Star Wish Clan certainly has better technology, at least the technology to convert sensor towers into signal towers. If you want to build a large alliance, the communication problem must be solved."

"The Star Signal Tower is the key to solving the communication problem, but only if you can obtain the technology."

Obtaining the signal tower technology from the Star Wish Clan is actually not that difficult.

After all, Jirachi is not asleep, and Jirachi can only be considered a demigod at present. As the saying goes, one should give face to the Buddha even if one does not respect the monk.

The Starwish Clan shouldn't make things difficult for him in this regard, and all he wants is the transmission technology of the signal tower, not the technology to detect Jirachi.

Lu Li nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask about it later."

For some unknown reason, Ekaterina did not seem to tell him that she was pregnant.

Lu Li didn't ask any questions and pretended not to know.

On one hand, he wanted to know what Catherine was up to; on the other hand, he needed to go into seclusion for a while. If Catherine brought it up herself, he would have to make time for her, both out of courtesy and reason.

The baby is only a little over a month old. Even if we want to spend time with him/her, that will be six months from now.

Six months was more than enough time for him to get everything sorted out.

After bidding a reluctant farewell to Ekaterina, Lu Li returned alone to the Mysterious Realm of a Thousand Faces.

After entrusting the matter to Yao Yifei, Lu Li began his seclusion.

The power of the gods he had contracted with was increasing too quickly. Lu Li felt that if he went into seclusion for another month, his cultivation level might reach the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

This is an outrageous thing in the world of cultivation; even those powerful cultivators who have restarted their cultivation could not achieve such speed.

However, due to the differences between the worlds, he is now like a bug, existing like a bug in both the elf world and the cultivation world.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Although the World Alliance was only recently established, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner under Yao Yifei's leadership.

Lu Li, who had just gone into seclusion, was not so optimistic.

In the basement, Lu Li, who had been in seclusion for a month, slowly opened his eyes.

Where does the road ahead lead?
Lu Li thought so in his heart.

After a month of digestion, his strength had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul level.

This should have been a happy occasion, but the problem is... bugs always happen.

Now his cultivation has encountered a truly fatal problem.

In the world of cultivation, according to normal cultivation, the next stage after the Nascent Soul stage should be the Tribulation Transcending stage.

This is also the crucial moment that determines whether a cultivator succeeds or not.

If you succeed, you will ascend to immortality.

If you fail, that's the Mahayana stage.

(Please do not apply this to settings from other novels; this is the setting of this novel.)
The so-called tribulation is the tribulation of lightning descending from the heavens, which is a test of the heavenly way and also a baptism of the heavenly way.

The problem is that there is no lightning tribulation in the world of elves!

Yes, there is no lightning tribulation in the elven world. There are quite a few gods who control lightning, but the problem is that they are not the true heavenly lightning tribulation.

"Is the road ahead over?" Lu Li found it hard to accept.

He's now just one step away from becoming an immortal, but he can't find the door!

what is this?
The tribulation stage requires passing through nine layers of lightning tribulation, also known as the nine-nine lightning tribulation, and one can decide when to undergo this tribulation.

After undergoing nine baptisms, one can ascend to immortality.

In this world, there is only one who represents the Way of Heaven, and that is Arceus.

The most ridiculous thing is that he himself is almost like Arceus!

Does that mean the only option is to ask Arceus to strike you with lightning?
So here's another question: where is Arceus in this world?

Evil Hoopa said that he was Arceus in disguise.

But this kind of thing can only fool others. He knows what kind of person he is, doesn't he?

Moreover, it's not even certain whether this idea will come to fruition.

Undeterred, Lu Li picked up the Punishment Pot.

"Hoopa, do you really not know where Arceus is?"

Hupa asked in bewilderment, "Isn't Arceus you?"

Land from:"……"

“I’m not,” Lu Li retorted with a dark expression.

I'm definitely not Arceus!
Seeing Lu Li's dark expression, Evil Hoopa suddenly realized and said, "Are you looking for Arceus from other worlds?"

Lu Li nodded helplessly. He could only continue the conversation with this unlucky kid, otherwise he would fall into another vicious cycle.

"If you want to find Arceus in other worlds, you must first go to other worlds. Normally, any first-level god can send you to other worlds."

"But the problem is that the gods have now retreated, so this method won't work either, so I can't do anything about it, at least not right now."

Lu Li was very dissatisfied with Evil Huba's answer.

Heaven knows when the gods of this world will awaken. According to the habits of those gods, if they are to sleep for ten thousand years, can he really wait for ten thousand years?

Moreover, ten thousand years later, his cultivation level will likely have reached the 100,000th level of the Nascent Soul stage.

I've seen people stuck at the 100,000th level of Qi Refining, but I've never seen someone stuck at the 100,000th level of Nascent Soul.

"Isn't there any other way?" Lu Li asked, unwilling to give up.

Taking advantage of the situation, Evil Hoopa said, "There's another way. You can let me out and then help me get my body back. Before I fall asleep, I might be able to send you to another world first."

"You've got your hands on me." Lu Li was speechless for a moment.

but……

Lu Li realized that she might actually be falling for him.

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Li finally withdrew the Evil Hu Pa.

Lu Li ultimately gave up on the idea.

Putting aside whether Arceus's detonator works or not, even if it did, why would Arceus help you?
Furthermore, Arceus's lightning bolts don't necessarily have a baptismal effect.
The reason why the Tribulation Transcending Stage exists in the world of cultivation is that it is both a test and a baptism.

The tribulation lightning in this world might just be a normal lightning strike, and it might not have any effect at all.

So Lu Li decided to give up on treatment.

Thinking of this, Lu Li sighed deeply.

Then he pushed open the door and left the basement. He no longer needed to go into seclusion, at least not for cultivation.

As for whether it will be burst by its cultivation level?

Lu Li now has a new idea. Since the path of the cultivation world is blocked, then he will take the path of the elf world and create a new world!

"I never thought I'd be able to be Pangu again," Lu Li thought with amusement.

As soon as he came out of the customs, Lu Li saw Qu Suxin.

To be precise, it was Qu Suxin who found him immediately.

"You bastard, you've finally come out of seclusion! I finally mustered up the courage to confess to you, and you just left without saying a word." Qu Suxin threw herself into Lu Li's arms with resentment.

Lu Li looked down helplessly at Qu Suxin in his arms.

It's hard to imagine that Qu Suxin, the Fairy King, would have such a girlish side.

It's worth noting that when the alliance was still around, Qu Suxin was known as the Fairy Queen.

"I'm sorry, I was just in a rush." ​​Lu Li apologized readily, after all, it was indeed his fault.

"No need for an apology, just give me a wedding. Yifei and I have already discussed it, and we'll invite Ekaterina too, so we can get married together," Qu Suxin said, seizing the opportunity.
