From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 534 Sword Pointing to the Three Thousand Great Daos
A lavish banquet was held, and both hosts and guests enjoyed themselves immensely.

Aside from the Li family, Fang Zeshan was the happiest person present.

Originally, because of his elder brother's relationship with Li Zhenyue, he thought he wouldn't get a good reception today. However, before Li Zhenyue could even speak, Li Chengqian, the protagonist, showed his goodwill. His young lady, Fang Qingxue, was also a cultivation genius. Although she had only been in the Feathered Gate for a short time, she had already begun her seclusion to break through to the Divine Power Realm, and it was even possible that she had already succeeded.

In this way, the Fang family in Longyuan Province will also have a true disciple of the Divine Power Secret Realm, and the Fang family's position in the Great Li Dynasty will be more secure.

"Uncle Shan, I've come back this time for two reasons. First, to visit my family, and second, because the True Inheritance Peak is newly established and needs a lot of manpower. My cousin is in the same boat. Once she becomes a True Inheritance Disciple, there will be a True Inheritance Peak in the sect, and she will also be short of manpower. After you go back, you need to make preparations as soon as possible, select some good talents, and prepare to send them into the Immortal Sect!"

These were the words Li Chengqian said to him before he left. From Li Chengqian's attitude, he could clearly feel how much the other party valued Fang Qingxue. While he was delighted, he also made some speculations about the relationship between the two.

However, such matters cannot be determined by speculation. He needed to go back and discuss the specifics with his brother, and at the same time, he needed to find a way to contact Fang Qingxue to understand the true relationship between the two. Therefore, after the banquet, he hurriedly took his leave and returned to Longyuan Province.

The banquet ended and the guests departed, but the Li family did not disperse. Only after seeing off the last guest did the core members of the Li family gather in the heavily guarded study.

The study was brightly lit by candlelight. Besides Li Zhenyue, there were several of Li Chengqian's uncles and the most accomplished elders in the family, all of whom were the true decision-makers of the Li family.

“Qian’er,” Li Zhenyue spoke first, his tone tinged with emotion, “you are now a true disciple of the immortal sect, with a bright future ahead of you. I have been fighting openly and covertly with Fang Zetao of Longyuan Province in the imperial court for many years, and now it seems rather laughable.”

From Li Chengqian's attitude toward Fang Zeshan, he seemed to have discerned something. So, as soon as he opened his mouth, he casually revealed his relationship with Fang Zetao. His tone was complex, containing both old grudges and a subtle change due to his children entering the immortal sect together.

Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian smiled slightly, took a sip of spiritual tea, and said slowly, "Father, the struggles in the imperial court are a momentous event for mortals, but for us cultivators, they are nothing more than fleeting clouds in the mortal world."

He put down his teacup, his expression becoming serious: "Although my cousin Qingxue achieved supernatural powers a step later than me, her talent and potential are extremely profound, even astonishing. The reason I was able to achieve supernatural powers before her is not because I am so powerful, but because I obtained a fortuitous opportunity, which is why I was able to take the lead. However, no one can predict what the future holds. You and Fang Zetao can fight and make a fuss as you please, but be careful not to cause any deaths, otherwise it will be difficult to handle."

"Don't worry, we're not fools." Seeing how much Li Chengqian valued Fang Qingxue, Li Zhenyue's expression also became serious. "Besides, the conflict between him and me was mainly about choosing sides. We each chose different people, but that was in the past. We needed to choose sides to maintain our power and family, or even go further. But it's different now. You've become a true disciple of the Immortal Sect, and Fang Qingxue will also become a true disciple. We no longer need to rely on this method to solidify our position. In the future, both the Li family and the Fang family will still depend on you."

Li Chengqian nodded and continued, "The first reason for returning this time is naturally to visit my family and put their minds at ease. The second reason is to select a group of promising disciples from the family to accompany me to the Feathered Ascension Sect. True disciples can establish their own peaks and have their own independent dojos. They will need trustworthy people to manage the medicinal fields, alchemy rooms, and handle miscellaneous affairs. This is also their opportunity to step onto the path of immortality."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the study gasped. This was a direct shortcut to the Immortal Realm! In the past, any member of the Li family wishing to join the Ascension Sect had to undergo rigorous selection processes, an incredibly difficult journey. Now, with Li Chengqian, a true disciple, guiding them, it was undoubtedly an immense blessing.

"Good! Good! The family will definitely cooperate fully in this matter and will select the most outstanding and loyal members. We will never let you down!" an uncle said excitedly.

"That would be best." Li Chengqian stood up. "I'll trouble Father and all the uncles and elders to expedite the selection of disciples, prioritizing aptitude and temperament. I will stay at home for a few more days, leaving behind some Foundation Establishment Pills and Body Refining Techniques from the sect to help them build a solid foundation." In the following days, Li Chengqian stayed at the Li family, personally selecting the family's disciples, bestowing upon them pills and techniques, and offering slight guidance, which ignited a frenzy of cultivation among the younger generation of the Li family, creating an unprecedentedly high atmosphere.

Li Chengqian, on the other hand, has been relatively free these past few days. Of course, he's not really idle; he's been dealing with the fragments of the World Tree.

This piece of wood is only the size of a palm, twisted and crooked, resembling a human figure. It is somewhat like ginseng, but without roots. The wood is purplish-black, and on the surface it looks like sandalwood, but it is not. Moreover, it is extremely heavy; a small piece weighs four or five thousand pounds.

Hai Shan was an unlucky man. He had possessed this item for a long time and had tried to refine it many times, but no matter whether he used real fire to burn it or soaked it in water, he could not refine it or break it. In the end, he had no choice but to give it to Li Chengqian as a bonus among a bunch of wood-attribute treasures in exchange for a supreme divine power.

But Li Chengqian knew that this thing needed the nourishment of the Nine Yang Holy Water to break the seal and sprout completely. Then, by using supreme divine powers like the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Technique, he could refine it into a natal magic weapon, and through the roots that grew from the fragments, it could absorb the spiritual energy of the immortal realm...

This was also one of Fang Han's greatest adventures in the early stages.

Li Chengqian knew where the Nine Yang Holy Water was, but he did not possess any supreme wood-attribute divine power similar to the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Technique.

The Heavenly Wood Technique of the Feathered Ascension Sect is merely a great divine power, and it may not be able to refine this thing. However, it's possible that if he uses the Taiyin Refining Form Technique to devour the Heavenly Wood Technique and understand the essence of wood-type divine powers in this world, he might be able to deduce a supreme divine power that is no weaker than the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Technique. Not only the Azure Emperor Wood Sovereign Technique, but all five elemental techniques can be deduced in this way. However, he is not in a hurry; there is still plenty of time. Things must be done step by step.

"The first three levels of the Divine Power Realm are nothing special. In the end, they are just changes in true qi, from magic power to true qi, and then from true qi to qi energy. These are all transformations, and for me, there are no bottlenecks. Reaching the fourth level, the Yin-Yang Realm, is a small qualitative change, but it's nothing special either. None of these are important. What's important is the Great Dao Divine Power!"

Yes, the important thing is the divine power of the Great Dao.

Upon reaching the sixth level of the Divine Power Realm, the Unity Realm, one must condense all the Divine Powers in one's body into a natal talisman. Like Fang Han in the original work, when he reached the Unity Realm, he possessed as many as fifty-five Divine Powers, demonstrating extremely profound potential.

However, in Li Chengqian's view, quantity is both important and unimportant. After all, among his fifty-five supernatural abilities, there are many minor and major supernatural abilities, but not many supreme supernatural abilities and the Three Thousand Great Daos. In fact, there are only a few of the Three Thousand Great Daos, such as the Great Severing Technique, the Great Five Elements Technique, and the Great Origin Technique. These are the few that Li Chengqian can value. Li Chengqian's plan is also very simple: the higher the level of the supernatural ability, the stronger its power, the better.

This might be impossible for others, but Li Chengqian can do it. His Unity Talisman must be based on the Taiyin Refining Technique. Now the Taiyin Refining Technique has gradually adapted to this world and is already sufficient to deduce supreme divine powers. Moreover, this is far from the limit of the Taiyin Refining Technique. It would be even better if he could reverse the three thousand Great Daos, but he cannot do it now.

The Taiyin Refining Form Technique still has a lot of room for development. Now it only lacks one thing, which is a master of the Three Thousand Great Daos!
He wanted to seize one of the Three Thousand Great Daos, to understand why the Three Thousand Great Daos of the Eternal World could become Great Daos, and what the most fundamental difference was between the Three Thousand Great Daos and the supernatural powers outside of the Great Daos. Only after understanding this could he be able to deduce the truth.

So now, the most important thing is to seize a Dao as a reference!
