Longevity in Two Worlds: Double Pupils Are the Road to Invincibility

The entrance to the Menglan Ruins.

"The spatial rift inside has disappeared!"

"That wasn't a spatial collapse, but rather the destruction of the main formation causing spatial instability."

"However, the formation within the Menglan Ruins has now repaired itself, and the space inside is gradually stabilizing!"

Gu Qianqiu and the others had already left the Menglan Ruins and appeared in front of the ruins of Qianfeng Mountain.

The entrance gate had not disappeared, which was why these people had not left, as they wanted to check the situation inside the Menglan Ruins.

This is a place of opportunity. Even if we can't enter this time, we should check the situation. If it's not too bad, we can go in again to look for opportunities when the Dreamland Ruins open next time.

Of course, if the space inside completely collapses, then this place will be completely worthless!

After all, in a place where space collapses, everything inside is destroyed, and the space itself disappears as well.

Some secret realms, ruins, and other places of chance have disappeared in this way.

These places of opportunity are not permanent.

The reason why Gu Qianqiu and the others remained here was because they knew some of the information about the Menglan Ruins.

When spatial rifts appeared within the Menglan Ruins, new spatial entrances also emerged.

Some people didn't risk going in and left directly, while others entered the new space entrance.

For Gu Qianqiu and the others, knowing what this new space entrance represents is important.

Previously, the Menglan Ruins had not been fully explored, and there were still many unknown areas. The new spatial entrance clearly indicates that a new opportunity has emerged within the Menglan Ruins.

It may even be the true core inheritance of the Dream Storm Sword Sect.

It's hidden so deeply; there must have been some hidden opportunity at all.

Those who previously received the inheritance of the Menglan Sword Sect never received the true core inheritance of the Menglan Sword Sect.

The powerful sword techniques that the Menglan Sword Sect was famous for in the medieval era have never appeared in the world.

These are also the goals of Gu Qianqiu and his group.

If they could obtain it, it would not only provide the Taiyi Sect with a new lineage, but also supplement the Taiyi Sect's shortcomings in some offensive methods.

While Taoist techniques like the Golden Crow Divine Fire and the Great Sun Divine Fire are powerful, they are too simplistic and require stronger protective measures in conjunction with them.

The legacy of the Menglan Sword Sect would be an excellent choice.

This is also why the Taiyi Dao Sect always says these few words when the Menglan Ruins open.

"It seems that the Menglan Ruins were affected by the previous battle between the two Tribulation Immortal experts, which damaged the formation inside."

"The intervention of that Heavenly Martial Saint expert from the imperial court further damaged the formation, making the space inside unstable, which led to the sudden appearance of so many spatial rifts."

After understanding the reason, Elder Yuan Jingchuan, the leader of the Yunyin Sect, said.

In fact, they had anticipated the situation beforehand. After all, spatial rifts don't appear in the Menglan Ruins for no reason. Someone must have caused a major change inside for this to happen.

Everything has a reason.

"The appearance of the spatial rift must have been caused by the people in the imperial court."

"Zhao Qingcang still hasn't been able to get out, it must be related to them."

Of the three major forces, only Zhao Qingcang, the leader of the imperial court's side, did not come out.

Whether he is still alive is hard to say, but it is definitely related to him.

When they caused such a commotion before, they sent people to investigate, but before they could find out the specifics, they encountered this situation.

Ultimately, they all chose to leave the Menglan Ruins first.

Given their level of Taoist cultivation, if they were trapped in a spatial rift, they would likely find it very difficult to survive.

“You didn’t receive a specific message from Zhao Qingcang.”

Yuan Jingchuan looked at the people on the imperial court's side.

The people who have come out now are all from the Demon Slayer Bureau, the Divine Arrest Bureau, etc., and none of Zhao Qingcang's people have appeared.

"No, we don't know what's going on either."

Ning Xueyan, a constable from the Divine Constable Division, stepped forward, shook her head, and said...

To be honest, none of them really understood what was going on inside the Menglan Ruins.

Although they were both on the side of the imperial court, they acted independently and had their own goals, and did not choose to cooperate.

Some relationships are even adversarial.

The reason it's not so obvious is simply to maintain a superficial peace.

Ning Xueyan represented the Divine Arrest Division. Their target this time was the cultivation techniques within the Menglan Ruins, so they headed directly towards the cultivation technique area.

When they saw the warning and support signal sent by Zhao Qingcang, they were still far away and did not choose to provide support immediately.

Instead, they planned to go there after obtaining the treasures within the formation.

However, they did not expect that after a short delay, many spatial rifts would appear in the Menglan Ruins, and they immediately left the Menglan Ruins without hesitation.

In such a dangerous situation, one's own safety is naturally the priority, and one will not care about Zhao Qingcang's situation.

These people represent different factions within the court, so naturally they wouldn't risk going to investigate.

Let's wait a little longer!

"Although there are no spatial rifts in the outer area now, the space is still unstable, so it is still a bit dangerous to go in."

Gu Qianqiu frowned slightly and said.

The Menglan Ruins don't seem so dangerous now, and the space is still being repaired, but who knows when it will be damaged again?

When problems arise in the space of secret realms, ruins, and other similar places, it actually means that this space is unlikely to last!
Because spatial problems accumulate over time, they can only partially repair themselves after being damaged, and it is impossible to restore them to their original state. The same problem is very likely to recur.

"Ah."

Yuan Jingchuan nodded in agreement and did not rush to send people in to investigate.

Azure Mist Small Thousand Realms.

"Using sword intent to refine the Yin spirit power of the Double Pupils that nourished the Unborn Saintess has indeed raised my Dao cultivation to the mid-stage of the Dharma Aspect."

"My cultivation of Taoist arts is not only improving rapidly, but my foundation is also very solid."

"This sword tablet is truly a treasure!"

Shi Yi felt that his cultivation of Daoist arts was progressing slowly. After checking his own condition, he sighed.

He had previously focused most of his attention on comprehending the sword intent, and even so, his cultivation of Daoist arts was still steadily improving, although a large part of this was due to the contributions of the Saintess of No Life.

The additional effect helped him break through his cultivation level in Taoism again and made his foundation even more solid.

Such benefits are truly rare.

All of this made Shi Yi wish he could meet a kind person like the Holy Maiden of No Life again!

"Unfortunately, this sword stele is not mainly used to improve one's cultivation level in Daoist arts; it is more for tempering one's Yin spirit."

"If I want to continue to rapidly improve my cultivation level, I will need other cultivation resources." Shi Yi shook his head slightly.

However, he also knew that the opportunities he had gained so far were already quite good!
"There are many sword intents on the sword monument, but some of them originate from the same technique, only the practitioners comprehend them in different directions."

"Even so, there are still hundreds of superior sword techniques recorded here."

"These are all cultivation techniques that directly lead to the realms of Celestial Martial Saint and Immortal. You can pick out any one of these techniques and establish a powerful sect or create a strong force in your region."

"Place it directly on the sword monument now."

"As long as you can bear the sword intent above, you can obtain it."

This sword monument, forged from a sword, is a stone of inheritance.

Only the finest sword intent and superior martial arts techniques can leave a trace.

If such an item were to appear in the outside world, even sacred sects would rush to seize it.

After all, it is a foundation that can be passed down for generations.

"The sword monument is no longer of much help to me!"

"Unless I can enter the Sword Mountain again in the future, and my cultivation level improves but my foundation is not solid enough, I can use the sword intent on this sword stele to quickly stabilize my foundation."

This sword tablet serves more than just as a means of inheritance; the sword intent it contains can greatly benefit cultivators.

It is useful for both martial arts practitioners and Taoist practitioners.

After martial arts cultivation reaches a certain level, one needs to comprehend the essence of the art. The sword intent on this sword monument can help people to comprehend the essence of the art.

Let's continue exploring what other trials lie deeper within Sword Mountain!

After glancing at the sword monument, Shi Yi deliberately left an anchor point before continuing his journey.

He couldn't take the greatest opportunity, the sword tablet, with him, so he had no choice but to give it up.

Shi Yi continued walking, but after only a few steps, the scene before him suddenly changed.

Sword Mountain disappeared, and a bamboo forest appeared. Deep within the bamboo forest, there was a courtyard with a stream beside it. Everything looked so quiet and peaceful.

Upon seeing this, Shi Yi subconsciously used his double pupils to see through the illusory supernatural power, only to find that what was in front of him was not an illusion, but a real object.

He stepped over the sword monument and continued his journey on Sword Mountain, and now he has left Sword Mountain and entered a new area.

"This must be a spatial teleportation technique."

Shi Yi had a guess in his mind.

His steps just now seemed ordinary, but in fact he had performed spatial teleportation.

This wasn't Shi Yi's doing, but rather due to the special nature of that area. It must have been enhanced by spatial arrays, world power, or something similar to make it this way.

Everything was arranged in advance. Only by comprehending the legacy within the sword monument could one have the opportunity to come here.

"This place looks peaceful; I wonder what kind of trial it is?"

Shi Yi had a slight thought, then continued forward and entered the bamboo forest.

Having decided to move forward, he naturally wouldn't stop.

He was also very curious about what kind of opportunity this place held.

Walking through the bamboo grove and past the stream, you can see fish swimming, making the courtyard look even more harmonious.

Shi Yi used his double pupils to examine the courtyard in front of him, but he did not see any signs of life or blood, and there were no living people inside.

But that's normal; it would be strange if there were living people inside.

Even a Daoist master at the Tribulation Immortal level could not possibly have lived from the Middle Ages to the present day.

He had read records about the Menglan Sword Sect, but there was no record of the Menglan Sword Sect producing any powerful individuals who had reached the Yang God level or shattered the vacuum level.

However, the Menglan Sword Sect has produced quite a few experts at the level of Sage and Immortal, which is why the Menglan Sword Sect had a considerable reputation in the medieval era.

"I am Shi Yi. I came here by chance to undergo trials. Please forgive me if I have disturbed you."

Shi Yi looked at the door leading into the courtyard, hesitated for a moment, and then bowed and said.

Although he was certain there were no living people inside, this place looked unusual and was a trial ground, so it was best to be polite.

Whether it's useful or not doesn't matter, the proper manners should still be observed.

After all, it's never wrong to be overly polite.

Shi Yi understood this principle.

There was no response from the courtyard. Seeing this, Shi Yi pushed open the door to the courtyard house.

Instantly, a faint, refreshing fragrance wafted from the courtyard.

There is a pond in the courtyard, and in the pond, there is a golden lotus flower, with several green lotus leaves beside it. The faint fragrance comes from the golden lotus flower.

"This looks like the top-tier rare and precious Immortal Spirit Golden Lotus?"

"That's right, such rare and precious materials actually grow here."

"Top-tier natural treasures that have long since disappeared from the outside world after the end of the Middle Ages."

When Shi Yi saw Jinlian's appearance clearly, his pupils instantly contracted.

He paid close attention to rare and precious materials, and carefully studied each and every one of them.

For someone with a photographic memory, remembering these things would be a piece of cake.

Such treasures can nourish the soul and greatly help increase the power of the Yin spirit's origin. And this is only part of its effects. It is said that it can also help break through the barrier between life and death and comprehend the mysteries of the womb.

Even if a high-level immortal obtains it, it will still be effective, as it can absorb a portion of the destructive power of the heavenly tribulation, making it easier for them to overcome it.

Its numerous benefits and extraordinary effects are why it is hailed as a top-tier natural treasure.

However, after disappearing in the medieval era, this top-grade natural treasure vanished!
Otherwise, whether they are experts in the Silent Meditation Realm or experts in the Immortal Realm, obtaining such a treasure would give them the opportunity to advance further, instead of being trapped in a bottleneck and unable to improve.

Shi Yi had naturally paid special attention to such top-tier natural treasures.

After all, in the cultivation of Taoist arts, the realm of immortals is extremely difficult to cross, and now there are no external things that can help one break through this great realm.

Many Daoist masters in sects who had reached the Silent Meditation Realm tried various methods to break through, but ultimately failed. They could only use evil methods to prolong their lives and have more time to try to break through.

However, most of these people die and perish on their cultivation path!
Such people have appeared before within the Taiyi Dao Sect.

After the incident, Shi Yi learned about these things during a conversation with Lin Wenze.

Those who cultivate the Tao fear death more than ordinary people, especially when their lifespan is nearing its end, which can drastically change their temperament, making them completely different from before.

The fact that there were top-tier natural treasures here that could help one break through to the realm of immortals surprised Shi Yi greatly.

If there were cultivators at the Silent Meditation Realm or the Immortal Realm here at this moment, they would have already rushed over, quickly collected the Immortal Spirit Golden Lotus, and refined it to help them break through!

Even experts at the divine level might use this opportunity to undergo tribulation and attempt to advance to the Tribulation Immortal realm.

The lifespan of a master at the immortal realm is limited. To extend their lifespan, they need to undergo a tribulation of lightning, transforming their yin spirit into pure yang, so that their soul contains pure yang energy, their thoughts are refined to a crystal-clear state, their cultivation of Dao techniques is qualitatively improved, and their lifespan also increases significantly.

If a sect produces a master at the Tribulation Immortal level, its foundation will be elevated to a higher level!
However, breaking through to the Tribulation Immortal realm is extremely difficult.

Just like the Taiyi Dao Sect, which has three experts at the Immortal Realm, but no experts capable of withstanding the Tribulation of Lightning within its ranks. (End of Chapter)
