Chapter 160: Jidu Reappears and Discusses Spiritual Roots with Xuanyin Dongtian (Subscribe)
In the void, golden and blood-red light appeared, gradually turning into countless meritorious and mysterious auras that fell down.

However, the same scene as when the Ashura clan was created last time appeared again.

Suddenly, countless murderous auras and infinite karma appeared out of nowhere, cutting through the void, and were about to cancel each other out again with the descending aura of merit and virtue.

"Why did I establish the Ashura Sect, and it's like this?" asked the Taoist of Minghe in shock and anger.

"Daoyou, there's no need to be angry." A faint voice echoed above the Netherworld Sea of ​​Blood. "The Asura clan is born with a natural instinct for killing. Now Daoyou is using the innate killing swords Yuantu and Abi to suppress his destiny. The killing power contained in them is far greater than before, so this is natural."

"However, fellow Daoist, you can take this opportunity to comprehend the principles of the Great Dao of Slaughter and prove your Dao through killing."

"Jiutu, I don't need you to remind me how to comprehend the great Dao." The Taoist of Minghe snorted coldly. Above the three flowers of his primordial spirit, the Yuantu and Abi swords and the innate eighth-grade karma fire red lotus rushed into the void, drawing the aura of merit, the aura of killing, and infinite karma into his body.

The next moment, a strange fragrance wafted from the three flowers of the Taoist's soul, spreading throughout the entire Netherworld Sea of ​​Blood. The Yuantu and Abi swords and the innate eighth-grade karma fire red lotus shone brightly and faintly merged with each other.

Among them, the Yuantu sword and the innate eighth-grade karma fire red lotus actually have a tendency to merge.

Taoist Minghe felt that his mind had fallen into a mysterious state. His understanding of the laws of the Great Dao of Slaughter became deeper and deeper. His Taoist cultivation gradually broke through to the peak of the Second Corpse Quasi-Saint. He could even feel the existence of his own obsession and was about to place it on the Avici Sword.

In just a moment, the light of the innate eighth-grade karma fire red lotus dimmed. Not only was it unable to merge with the Yuantu sword, it even fell onto the three flowers of the Yuanshen, appearing incompatible with the Yuantu and Abi swords.

However, the aura of Taoist Minghe continued to grow stronger, and a mighty killing spree arose, erupting with a terrifying momentum that almost enveloped the entire underworld and set off huge waves.

"Congratulations, fellow Taoist, on your great progress!" As the voice sounded, a Taoist dressed in a green Taoist robe, a feather crown on his head, and holding a Buddhist whisk in his hand appeared above the Netherworld Blood Sea. He congratulated Taoist Minghe with a smile on his face.

This Taoist priest was none other than the Jidu Taoist priest who had once stopped Li Xuanyang in the Primal Chaos Void.

"Li Xuanyang!" Taoist Minghe shouted in a low voice. Instead of feeling any joy, he was filled with rage.

If the twelve-grade innate karma fire red lotus had not been missing, only the eighth grade would have been left, causing damage to the foundation of the good corpse.

It is possible that he has taken the opportunity to realize his own obsession and placed it on the Avici Sword.

"Although the method of beheading corpses is mysterious, it still has its shortcomings and is far inferior to the way of laws."

Jidu said to the Taoist Minghe with a smile on his face: "As long as you can take control of a part of the authority of the Samsara Land, I can help you to break through the power of the Law of the Great Way of Slaughter to the Three Corpses Quasi-Sage realm."

"That's better." Taoist Minghe said lightly, the divine light around him dimmed, and he took back the three flowers of his soul. His eyes fell on Jidu, and his eyes narrowed subconsciously.

Now his cultivation has taken another step forward. Although he has not truly broken through to the realm of the Three Corpses Quasi-Sage, he has reached the pinnacle of the Two Corpses Quasi-Sage. Coupled with the laws of the Great Way of Killing, he is naturally far superior to before.

So I vaguely sensed a hint of difference in Jidu.

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist." Jidu said, seemingly unconcerned by the gaze of the Styx Taoist. "Although the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods all perished when Pangu opened the heavens, a lot of their essence and blood remained. Among them is the essence and blood of the Slaughter Chaos Demon God, which can help you master the law of the Slaughter Dao."

"As for the Li Xuanyang you mentioned, the Chaos Indestructible Body he cultivated was modeled after the Chaos Devil Body of the Chaos Ancestor. He simply wanted to control the laws of the Chaos Dao."

"Li Xuanyang!" Taoist Minghe frowned, "Is he related to the Chaos Ancestor?"

"I don't know the truth about this either." Jidu shook his head, and then thought of Li Xuanyang's Twenty-Four Chaos Heavens, which could actually seal the Heaven-Suppressing Coffin. Even if it had nothing to do with the Chaos Ancestor, it must be a great opportunity.

"Asura Sect!" In Xuanyang Mountain, Li Xuanyang frowned slightly. He did not expect that Taoist Minghe would use the Asura clan to establish a big sect in order to obtain the merit and mysterious energy.

"This Taoist from the Styx is certainly remarkable. He first imitated Nuwa and created the Asura clan. Now he has established a great sect. However, he is ultimately innately deficient and cannot reach the realm of the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal."

Taoist Shangqing withdrew his gaze, a hint of doubt gradually appearing on his face, "But why doesn't Taoist Minghe use the innate twelve-grade karma fire red lotus to suppress the destiny?"

"Could it be that he intends to separate the Ashura clan from the Ashura religion!" After saying that, Taoist Shangqing felt that something was wrong. Since the Ashura clan was the foundation, how could the two be separated?

After hearing what the Taoist Shangqing said, a strange light flashed in Li Xuanyang's eyes. With the innate twelfth-grade karma fire red lotus lost, let alone suppressing the fortune of the Ashura Sect, he was afraid that even the fortune of the Ashura clan could not be completely suppressed.

However, the Asura clan was originally born with a passion for killing, and now with the Yuantu and Abi swords suppressing their destiny, I'm afraid they have completely fallen into the path of evil.

Of course, Li Xuanyang only thought about this in his mind and naturally wouldn't mention it to the Shangqing Taoist. He couldn't help but agree, "Daoyou is right, but the prehistoric world is in a turbulent time right now. If the Minghe Taoist establishes the Ashura Sect at this time, I'm afraid it will stir up a lot of trouble."

"It's fine on the prehistoric land, but the Netherworld is far away from the prehistoric land. We have to be wary of the Styx Taoist and the Ashura Cult causing trouble, otherwise it will spread to the land of reincarnation, and then it will be troublesome."

Jiejiao also has disciples serving in the Netherworld. After hearing what Li Xuanyang said, Shangqing Taoist couldn't help but nod and said, "You are absolutely right, fellow Taoist. That Minghe Taoist relies on the Netherworld Blood Sea. Even saints like us cannot easily kill him. We must be on our guard."

Next, Li Xuanyang talked with the Taoist Shangqing for a while, and the Taoist Shangqing said goodbye.

Li Xuanyang did not try to persuade him to stay. As the Shangqing Taoist stood up, he bowed and said, "The ten thousand year deadline is approaching. I'll meet you in Heaven again then!"

"As it should be!"

As they were talking, the two of them arrived outside Xuanyang Mountain.

"Fellow Daoist, please stop. I will take my leave now." Taoist Shangqing bowed to Li Xuanyang and turned into a cloud of light and went towards Biyou Palace.

After watching Taoist Shangqing leave, Li Xuanyang turned back to Xuanyang Mountain and walked towards the Chaos Spirit Spring.

At this moment, Kong Xuan and Changxi were controlling the Qiankun Ding together.

Seeing Li Xuanyang approaching, he couldn't help but feel relieved and stood up to salute respectfully, "Disciple greets the teacher!"

"Did the teacher get into a fight with the Taoist Zhunti earlier?"

When Li Xuanyang and the Taoist Shangqing came back earlier, they were controlling the Qiankun Ding and were unable to leave. They only heard from the Golden Crane Boy that Li Xuanyang had fought with the Taoist Zhunti.

It's inevitable to feel a little worried at this moment.

"It's okay, Master is not injured." Li Xuanyang didn't explain much. He walked up to him, sat down cross-legged, and took charge of the Qiankun Ding himself.

Seeing this, Kong Xuan and Changxi seemed to be hesitant to speak, but they didn't dare to ask too much, so they could only stand aside.

Hundreds of years passed like this, and suddenly, a divine light shone brightly on Xuanyang Mountain, strange signs appeared in the sky, purple air filled the air, and immortal sounds were heard.

Countless golden divine lights broke through the formation and went straight into the sky, reflecting billions of miles of void. The brilliance was so great that it enveloped the entire East China Sea. Three spiritual treasures appeared faintly.

One of the spiritual treasures was in the shape of a black and white picture book, which slowly unfolded, and was filled with the innate yin and yang energy; next to it was a three-foot-three-inch long sword, the sword body was silver-white, like moonlight, and above the sword edge, countless innate sword energies were emitted.

The last one is a formation diagram, with five divine lights of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, showing five colors, which are very similar to Kong Xuan's innate five elements and five colors of divine light.

Countless cultivators and creatures in the East China Sea looked up into the void with expressions of horror on their faces.

These three spiritual treasures actually contain innate spiritual light. Obviously, they are not acquired things, but three extremely precious innate spiritual treasures.

Li Xuanyang, who was sitting beside the Chaos Spirit Spring, suddenly opened his eyes and cast a spell towards the Qiankun Cauldron in front of him. Thousands of divine lights emerged, drawing down the essence of the stars in the sky, which fell onto the three innate spiritual treasures and nurtured them for a while.

"You can reach the innate level!" Li Xuanyang praised, and waved his hand to put the three innate spiritual treasures into his Yuanshen, and slowly nurtured them. The divine light in the sky was all gathered in Xuanyang Mountain.

At this time, Li Xuanyang stretched out his hand and pointed at the Qiankun Ding, transforming it into a ray of light, which fell towards Changxi. "Use the Qiankun Ding to reverse the innate nature, preferably with the support of the chaotic energy. You can stay here and retreat for a while."

"Thank you, teacher!" Changxi took the Qiankun Ding with a happy face and bowed to Li Xuanyang.

"Get up." Li Xuanyang gave a few instructions, stood up and walked out of the Chaos Spirit Spring. Looking at the beautiful scenery of Xuanyang Mountain, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

In the beginning, he had gone through so much hardship in order to refine the Taoist artifact. He had no idea how much effort he had put in just to obtain the innate yin and yang energy.

But now, in just a few hundred years, the three spiritual treasures have been reversed to their innate state and transformed into innate spiritual treasures.

"However, Zhunti and Jieyin haven't come yet!" Li Xuanyang's hand flashed with golden light, and he took out the Heaven-Suppressing Coffin. "It seems that Taoist Zhunti doesn't intend to use the Innate Twelve-Rank Merit Golden Lotus as a bargaining chip."

He was not surprised by this, just a little regretful.

After all, the innate twelve-grade golden lotus of merit is not an ordinary innate spiritual treasure. It is extremely important to the Western religion, and the saints are immortal.

"In that case..." Li Xuanyang's eyes turned cold, and the magic power in his body surged. He wanted to activate the Heaven-Suppressing Coffin to refine the soul relics suppressed in the coffin.

No matter how powerful the Taoist Zhunti is, it is useless even if his soul is placed on the way of heaven.

However, at this moment, a divine light fell into the depths of the sea eye and headed towards Xuanyang Mountain.

Li Xuanyang let out a soft "hmm!" and waved his hand, sending out a golden light that pierced through the mountain-protecting formation and swept it into his hand. It was a jade talisman. "Friend Xuanyin!" Li Xuanyang waved his hand, putting away the Heaven-Suppressing Coffin. His consciousness fell into the jade talisman. "Offer sacrifices to the heavens and establish a palace!"

"Why is Fellow Daoist Xuanyin suddenly planning to establish a government?"

"Could it be that it is similar to how the Taoist Minghe established the Ashura Sect, intending to use the Qi of the Mysterious Yellow Merit to improve his Taoism?"

"Looks like I need to go there." Li Xuanyang put away the jade talisman and walked towards the Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys.

The two of them had already known about Li Xuanyang's coming out of seclusion when Li Xuanyang took back the three innate spiritual treasures.

Seeing Li Xuanyang coming, the Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys hurried over to greet him, waiting for his instructions.

"Master is going to the extreme north. I will be back in three to four hundred years at the earliest and one to two thousand years at the latest. Please inform your Senior Brother Kong Xuan and Senior Sister Chang Xi. They don't have to wait for me." After Li Xuanyang explained this to the Golden Crane and Silver Crane boys, a golden cloud of light appeared under his feet and he headed towards the northern part of the prehistoric world.

This time, when Xuanyin Taoist offered sacrifices to heaven and established a palace, she only invited some friendly fellow practitioners to come as witnesses, and did not invite everyone, not even some fellow practitioners she was familiar with in the past.

Arriving at Sanxuan Mountain all the way, Li Xuanyang could see from afar the land of hundreds of thousands of miles, with magnificent peaks and steep ridges. The mountains were changing in various ways, gathering countless earth veins and innate spiritual energy, which was contained but not overflowing, and all revealed a kind of spiritual beauty.

"What a sacred mountain! It is indeed a blessed place." Li Xuanyang praised it and sent down clouds of light into the mountain.

Seeing Li Xuanyang descending with cloud light, Xuanyin Zhenren couldn't help but greet him with a smile, "Daoyou are finally here, otherwise I would have gone to Xuanyang Mountain to invite you in person!"

"If I had known this, I would have been waiting for you in Xuanyang Mountain." After Li Xuanyang and the Xuanyin Taoist bowed to each other, they joked with each other.

Xuanyin Taoist laughed heartily and said to Li Xuanyang, "Please go in first, fellow Taoist. There are still a few fellow Taoists who haven't arrived yet. I have to wait for a while."

Li Xuanyang nodded, followed a boy to lead the way, and stepped into the Xuanyin Cave Heaven. The scene changed.

The place is filled with spiritual mist transformed from innate spiritual energy, and various spiritual roots and immortal herbs can be seen everywhere. Innate Xuanyin energy also gathers and emits bursts of innate Xuanyin spiritual energy, which is just suitable for the disciples of the Xuanyin Dao lineage to practice.

Deep in the cave, there is a jade staircase winding up to a palace with a plaque hanging on it. The three big characters "Xuanyin Palace" are written in the innate divine script, emitting a bright glow.

Li Xuanyang walked into the Xuanyin Palace and saw more than a dozen fellow cultivators who were invited by the Xuanyin Taoist priest. They had already sat down at their desks one by one and started talking to each other.

These fellow cultivators were almost all from the Zixiao Palace. They had known each other for a long time, so it was natural for them to talk when they met.

Seeing Li Xuanyang walking into the palace, everyone stood up and greeted Li Xuanyang.

"Your aura is dark, but have you made a breakthrough in your cultivation?" As soon as Queen Mother of the West saw Li Xuanyang, a strange color flashed in her beautiful eyes. She could not even sense Li Xuanyang's aura in her soul.

After hearing the Queen Mother of the West's reminder, everyone felt the change in Li Xuanyang's aura and were all shocked. They knew at a glance that there must have been a breakthrough in his Taoism and supernatural powers.

"After thousands of years of seclusion, I have indeed gained something." Li Xuanyang smiled and greeted everyone. Then he found a seat at his desk and sat down to talk with them.

After a while, Xuanyin Taoist, Zhen Yuanzi and Xuangui Taoist walked in together.

"Thank you very much for what happened before!" Taoist Xuangui showed gratitude on his face and bowed deeply to Li Xuanyang.

"There is no need to do this, fellow Taoist." Li Xuanyang quickly stood up and helped Taoist Xuangui up. After exchanging greetings with him, he sat down at the desk again.

"By the way, fellow Daoist, why did you choose this time to offer sacrifices to heaven and establish a palace?" Li Xuanyang suddenly turned and asked Xuanyin Taoist.

Hearing Li Xuanyang's question, Xuanyin Taoist was surprised. She did not answer Li Xuanyang's question. Instead, she smiled and said to Li Xuanyang, "It seems that Daoist Fellow has been in seclusion practicing recently and has not paid attention to the things in the prehistoric world."

"Hundreds of years ago, Haotian and Yaochi of the Heavenly Court ordered a group of immortals and gods to prepare a Peach Banquet. They planned to invite a group of fellow cultivators from the prehistoric world to taste the peaches during the ten thousand year period."

"While the time is still up, I have invited all of you fellow Taoists to come and bear witness, so as to prevent another disturbance in the prehistoric world after the Peach Banquet."

What the Taoist Xuanyin said made sense. Li Xuanyang knew that this ten thousand year period would never be peaceful.

Even the future battles between Haotian, Yaochi and the other emperors, as well as the conflicts among the saints, will surely be very lively.

On the contrary, before the Peach Banquet, the world was much calmer.

"Fellow Daoist, have you chosen the object to suppress the luck?" Li Xuanyang suddenly asked the Xuanyin Taoist. The object that can suppress the luck must at least be an innate spiritual treasure, and it is best to be something that is in line with the Xuanyin lineage. It must not be like the Shangqing Taoist and the Minghe Taoist who use innate killing swords to suppress the luck.

"I am not as wealthy as you, my fellow Taoist, who have many innate spiritual treasures. This time I offer sacrifices to heaven and establish a palace, but I am only establishing the Xuanyin lineage. It is not an almighty sect, so I only need to use the Xuanyin Cave to suppress the luck." The Xuanyin Taoist said with a smile.

"Daoyou, this is a brilliant move!" Li Xuanyang's eyes lit up. The Xuanyin Cave Heaven of Sanxuan Mountain is one of the thirty-six cave heavens in the prehistoric world. It was born with a share of the prehistoric luck, which was used as a means of suppression.

Although it is not as good as some high-grade innate spiritual treasures, as long as the Xuanyin lineage stays in a corner and is not involved in the prehistoric catastrophe, it is enough to protect the disciples.

Seeing the arrival of the remaining fellow Taoists, Xuanyin Taoist brought a group of his disciples to offer sacrifices to the heavens and pray, and officially established the Xuanyin lineage.

This time the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven and establishing the palace was over, without too many rituals.

Thunder rumbled above the void, and the aura of merit and virtue emerged and fell into the Xuanyin Cave Heaven. About 80% of it fell on the Xuanyin Taoist, 10% merged into the Xuanyin Cave Heaven, and the remaining 10% fell towards Li Xuanyang and others and the disciples of the Xuanyin lineage.

"I'm sorry to bother you fellow Taoists with this."

"Please come back and take a seat, fellow Taoists." Xuanyin Taoist said to everyone with a happy look on his face.

"Please come in first, fellow Daoist!" Li Xuanyang and others also showed joy on their faces and spoke politely to Xuanyin Taoist.

At that moment, Li Xuanyang and others sat down again, and the disciples of the Xuanyin lineage brought spiritual fruits and fine wine and placed them on the table.

The Taoist priest Xuanyin pointed at the spiritual fruits on the table and said to everyone with a smile, "I only have some ordinary spiritual roots in my Xuanyin Cave Heaven. They are not as good as those of fellow Daoist Xuanyang and fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi. I hope you will not despise them and each of you can taste a few."

"Let's wait until the Peach Banquet, and then we can taste the innate spiritual fruit together."

"Fellow Daoist, you are right. I have heard about the mystery of the Xiantian Renshui Peach a long time ago. It's time to taste it." Li Xuanyang smiled and reached out to pick up a spiritual fruit and said in agreement.

"It seems that fellow Daoist has already known the mystery of the Xiantian Renshui Peach!" Queen Mother of the West suddenly asked Li Xuanyang.

As soon as these words were spoken, dozens of fellow cultivators in the hall couldn't help but look towards Li Xuanyang, thinking of the one of the ten innate spiritual roots in the ancient times that Taoist Shangqing had blurted out that day.

"I've had the pleasure of tasting Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi's ginseng fruit, and it's truly extraordinary and mysterious. I wonder what the secrets of the Xiantian Renshui Pantao, also one of the ten innate spiritual roots of the prehistoric world, are?"

"Haha!" Li Xuanyang chuckled, glancing at the Queen Mother of the West with a half-smile. "This Xiantian Renshui Peach is different from Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi's ginseng fruit tree. It's not just one spiritual root, but can be transformed into 3,600 spiritual roots."

"Among them, the last 1,200 are the rarest. They ripen once every 9,000 years, which is exactly the number of 39. They are extremely extraordinary."

After hearing Li Xuanyang's introduction, everyone couldn't help but praise that this Xiantian Renshui Peach was so extraordinary and even more precious than Zhen Yuanzi's ginseng fruit tree.

Everyone's eyes fell on Zhen Yuanzi.

Upon seeing this, Zhen Yuanzi chuckled and said, "My ginseng fruit tree is considered extraordinary, but it is certainly not as good as the Xiantian Renshui peaches. In fact, in terms of preciousness, it is not as good as the Xiantian gourd vine in Daoist Xuanyang's mountain."

"Fellow Daoist, what are you talking about?" Feeling everyone's gaze, Li Xuanyang waved his hands repeatedly, "The Xiantian gourd vine in this poor mountain has never blossomed or borne fruit. It's far inferior to Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi's ginseng fruit tree."

"Both of you Daoists have innate spiritual roots in the mountains to regulate the earth veins and suppress the Dao field. This makes me and others very envious." The Taoist Xuanyin couldn't help but reveal a hint of envy. "Unfortunately, innate spiritual roots are too rare."

After saying this, Xuanyin Daoist suddenly asked, "Since both of you Daoists possess one of the ten great innate spiritual roots of the prehistoric world, could you please tell me their specific ranking?"

After hearing what Xuanyin Taoist said, Li Xuanyang and Zhen Yuanzi both showed hesitation. It was really hard to say the ranking of the top ten innate spiritual roots in the prehistoric world.

"Most of the so-called ten great innate spiritual roots of the Great Desolation were spiritual roots that were conceived when chaos was just beginning, when the universe was just beginning to be judged, and before the creation of heaven and earth. Therefore, they are different from ordinary innate spiritual roots."

Li Xuanyang pondered for a moment before saying, "But as the prehistoric world evolved, almost all of them became innate spiritual roots. As for their specific ranking, it's hard to say."

"However, when it comes to the top-ranked spiritual root, it must be the 36th-grade Chaos Azure Lotus without a doubt; the second is undoubtedly the Yellow Plum. As for the remaining several innate spiritual roots, they each have their own mysteries."

For example, the seemingly mysterious peaches of innate Ren water are still better than the ginseng fruit tree.

But in addition to the mystery of the ginseng fruit tree itself, the ginseng fruit it produces is in conflict with the five elements and contains the principle of the five elements' mutual restraint. For the quasi-saints with great supernatural powers who practice the law of the five elements, its preciousness is far better than the innate Renshui peaches.

But for forces like Heaven, the 3,600 spiritual roots transformed from the Xiantian Renshui peaches are far superior to the ginseng fruit trees.
