Yin Xi was kind-hearted. Although he didn't think Zhou Qing was a good candidate for taking the Immortal Cauldron, he still reminded Zhou Qing, after all, Zhou Qing was his junior brother.
As long as Zhou Qing promises not to cause damage to Earth, Yin Xi is still willing to believe his junior brother. Of course, even if he doesn't believe him, he can't stop him. Once the quasi-emperor next to him releases his aura, he might have to vomit blood and retreat.
The fundamental reason why Earth fought a great war with the sages of the three Martian planets, Huosang, Tongtian, and Gouchen, was that those sages came with ill intentions and began to slaughter everyone as soon as they arrived on Earth.
For example, the ten golden crows of Huosang Star were ten demon saints. As soon as they appeared, they caused great suffering to living beings. The ten golden crows roamed the sky and released solar essence fire at will, causing too many tragedies.
In the end, Da Yi was born, and he killed nine saints in succession, with one saint escaping. This attracted their father, a quasi-emperor from the star Huosang, and Da Yi died with regret because of this.
Tongtian and Gouchen
Even sages weren't much better; they caused immense damage to the Earth.
Those were glorious years, a time of both triumph and tragedy. Had it not been for the emergence of a peerless hero, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
That's why Yin Xi's expression turned sour when she heard that Zhou Qing had come for the Immortal Cauldron and worried that they might also cause damage to Earth.
But in reality, if the sages of those three ancient stars had been able to control themselves and calmly venture into the Kunlun Formation instead of wantonly destroying Earth, perhaps that battle would not have broken out, let alone been so devastating.
The ancient sages of Earth fought to protect the planet, not to defend the Immortal Cauldron, since they had tried everything but failed to break in.
Moreover, if someone were to actually take the Immortal Cauldron, it would actually be a great help to them.
It was precisely because of the existence of that immortal cauldron that the essence of the earth became increasingly depleted, and the end of the Dharma became more and more serious. In order to solve this problem, Rong Cheng almost lost his life and ultimately failed to enter the core area of the Kunlun Great Array.
Ultimately, the last group of Qi cultivators on Earth were forced to leave their homeland and search for a suitable ancient planet in the universe for cultivation.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother. I dared to come here to retrieve the Immortal Cauldron because I was absolutely certain of success. I have already obtained the token to enter the Kunlun Grand Array, and the array spirit will let me in," Zhou Qing said.
Yin Xi revealed a look of surprise and said, "Really? If you have the token, you can enter the core of Kunlun without any hindrance, take the Immortal Cauldron, and then Earth will gradually recover its vitality."
Zhou Qing nodded and said, "I am absolutely certain."
“That’s good. After you take the Immortal Cauldron, if you’re not busy, could you come with me to a very important ancient site? Master would surely be delighted to see you there.” Yin Xi extended an invitation to Zhou Qing.
“Alright, since Senior Brother has extended such a warm invitation, I naturally have no reason to refuse. After I retrieve the Immortal Cauldron, I will go with Senior Brother to see Master.” Zhou Qing immediately agreed.
“However, this is only a physical body of mine, and it cannot exist for a long time. If it takes too long, I will dismantle this physical body and let my true self arrive,” Zhou Qing added.
Yin Xi was taken aback and said, "Junior Brother, has your One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones cultivation reached such a high level? I didn't even see the flaw."
He also cultivated the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique, and had been cultivating it for over two thousand years. He was extremely familiar with this secret technique. Logically speaking, Zhou Qing's cultivation of One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique was still relatively short, so Yin Xi, who also cultivated the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique, should have been able to distinguish his separated body.
That's why Yin Xi was so surprised and exclaimed, "Junior Brother's talent is beyond my imagination. In just a few years, you have cultivated the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones to such a superb level. If Master sees you, he may even bestow a reward upon you."
Yin Xi found it unbelievable. He was a prodigy in his youth; otherwise, how could he have taken on the important task of guarding Hangu Pass?
In the cultivation world, the length of cultivation time is not considered. With his talent, he can learn and master some secret techniques in a short time, surpassing those predecessors who have cultivated for more than a thousand years.
But now, even with his cultivation far surpassing that of his junior brother, he still can't see through the Dao body that his junior brother created by the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique. This shows that...
In terms of mastery of the Three Pure Ones Technique, this junior brother is probably not much different from him.
"Junior brother, don't worry. Master has always preferred tranquility, so there probably won't be much interaction. Don't worry about your Dao body not lasting long enough."
In Yin Xi's view, Zhou Qing's concerns were somewhat reasonable, but he was more familiar with his master's way of doing things. His master basically let his disciples roam freely, and he was an example of this, spending his days wandering in the starry sky and rarely spending time with his master.
By this time, the Zhou family patriarch had finished roasting the Crocodile Ancestor, which had been a small mountain of crocodile ancestor and had been completely transformed into a plate of golden and glistening roasted meat.
With a flick of his finger, a beam of immortal light flew out like a sharp sword, instantly slicing the Crocodile Ancestor into hundreds or thousands of pieces, which he then distributed to Zhou Qing and Yin Xi.
"Thank you for your gift, senior." Yin Xi bowed to the Zhou family patriarch and then began to enjoy the food.
Even the oxen beneath him received tens of thousands of catties of meat, which they immediately began to eat. Divine radiance surged and holy power gushed forth from their bodies, bringing them great benefits.
This is, after all, the flesh and blood of a Great Sage of the Demon Clan, containing the laws of the Great Sage, which are very useful to those of them who have not yet transcended the Great Sage realm.
Fortunately, it wasn't beef, otherwise they wouldn't have eaten it no matter what. Eating the flesh of the Crocodile Ancestor, on the other hand, didn't bother them.
The flesh and blood of the Crocodile Ancestor were only good for the Zhou family patriarch's appetite. Although they had no effect on his cultivation, they could at least provide him with a delicious human treat.
Zhou Qing then took a portion of flesh and blood from his own hands and sent it to the Small World in his sleeve, so that Ye Fan and his group could also consume some. This highly nourishing substance was enough to greatly improve their cultivation.
After Zhou Qing and the others had refined all of Crocodile Ancestor's flesh and blood, it was time for them to set off.
"Brother, we should go."
The Crocodile Ancestor on the ancient star Yinghuo has been eliminated, which can be considered as avenging Ye Fan's dozen or so classmates who died on Yinghuo.
After taking one last look at Mars, Zhou Qing began his journey towards Earth, with Yin Xi following beside him.
Mars is not very far from Earth anymore. At its closest point, it is 55 million kilometers away, and at its farthest point, it is about 400 million kilometers away.
If a group of holy lords from the Eastern Wilderness were to fly, it would consume all their divine power, and they would have to fly for many months without sleep or rest. If there were any slight deviation, it would take several years to fly.
But for Zhou Qing and his group, the distance between the two stars was nothing, and they quickly arrived above Earth.
Viewed from space, it is a light blue star, looking magnificent, like a blue diamond, sparkling with crystal light, almost dreamlike.
This light blue star is not very large, far from being comparable to the Big Dipper constellation, let alone the Ziwei constellation, but it also possesses a mysterious and vast aura.
They did not linger in space; their bodies descended directly from space and entered the thick atmosphere.
Entering Earth wasn't so simple; one had to pass through Hangu Pass first.
However, the end of the Dharma on Earth is too severe. Yin Xi is no longer guarding Hangu Pass, and the ancient formations on Earth do not have enough energy to operate, which is why people can come and go as they please.
During the descent, Zhou Qing saw towering mountains that reached into the clouds, tens of thousands of feet high, surpassing all the mountains on Earth.
Because the mortal world is only a small part of it now, Kunlun, Longhu Mountain, Changbai Mountain and other places are all sealed off by the great formation, with only a small part exposed outside.
At the same time, the Great Dao here is extremely high and difficult to grasp, and the essence of heaven and earth can be ignored. One's own cultivation level drops rapidly, and one's magical power is severely diminished, giving one a feeling of "dispersed Dao".
"Don't panic, this is the way of heaven and earth. In fact, your cultivation and power have not diminished, but it is difficult for you to draw upon the power of the Great Dao, so the power you can exert is greatly reduced," Yin Xi explained.
Chapter 305 Finally Meeting Parents
The end times on Earth are indeed quite severe. The Great Dao is too profound and difficult to awaken, resulting in the same level of power exerted on Earth being much less effective.
Fortunately, their power remained, and the decline in their realm was just an illusion. They fell from the vast expanse of white clouds, and below, enormous cities appeared.
Zhou Qing didn't want to be too conspicuous in the city, which would cause unnecessary trouble, so he landed in a deserted suburb.
It's very peaceful here, close to nature, with lush trees, vibrant and natural, very beautiful and serene.
"brush"
With a flick of his sleeve, Zhou Qing sent Ye Fan and the other thirteen people back to the outside world from the space within his sleeve.
"Are we finally back on Earth?"
"My God, Earth's environment is so much worse than Beidou's! I can barely absorb any vital energy!"
"Haha, I'm back!"
Everyone quickly scanned their surroundings. Nearby were lush green grass and fragrant wildflowers, while in the distance stood a very modern city with skyscrapers standing side by side, which immediately struck them.
A group of people cheered, some even weeping with joy. The people and things of this homeland had been on their minds for so many years, and now they had finally returned.
"I'm back, I'm finally back." Ye Fan's heart was filled with excitement, and his magical power was somewhat out of control, restless and ready to erupt.
"This is Earth. I know many of you are already itching to go. Go, don't wait for me to say anything. Go if you want to. I have nothing to say," Zhou Qing said with a smile.
"Thank you, Lord God, I must take my leave now!" Zhang Wenchang was overjoyed and wept with emotion. He hurriedly thanked the deity and prepared to depart.
"call out"
Zhang Wenchang transformed into a divine rainbow and soared into the sky.
However, after only a little over a hundred meters, Zhang Wenchang's body began to sway, and he eventually stumbled and fell to the ground.
"What! Wenchang can't even fly anymore?!" The group of people who hadn't left yet looked astonished.
Even if Zhang Wenchang's talent for cultivation is poor, he has reached the Dao Palace Secret Realm in recent years. How come he can't even fly?
"Is this our Earth? The suppression of cultivators is too harsh!"
Finally, the group realized that it wasn't Zhang Wenchang's fault, but rather the fault of this world. At the same level, the power exerted here on Earth was far less than that of the Big Dipper, to the point that even Dao Palace cultivators found it difficult to fly.
In the distance, although Zhang Wenchang had fallen, his physical body was not comparable to that of an ordinary person, and he was not injured. He quickly got up and ran directly towards the city.
He moved with lightning speed, like a streak of light across the land, covering dozens of meters in a single step. His physical strength alone was comparable to that of a car, and he gradually approached the modern city.
He needs to find out which city this is before he can figure out how to get home. Also, he's been away from Earth for ten years, and he needs to know what Earth has become.
"Lord God, I'm leaving too." Ye Fan turned around and said goodbye to Zhou Qing behind him. After seeing Zhou Qing nod slightly, Ye Fan left without waiting.
"boom"
Ye Fan's body was surging with golden blood energy, like a comet streaking across the sky.
It soared into the air, leaving a trail of lightning in the sky before disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"Lord God, I am departing as well." Another person said goodbye and then quickly left, like a gust of wind blowing across the world.
I'm leaving too.
One by one they left, and in no time, all thirteen people had disappeared.
Zhou Qing looked at Yin Xi and asked, "Where are you going next, Senior Brother? Or are you coming with me to Kunlun?"
Yin Xi smiled kindly and said, "I need to go back to Hangu Pass. When I left back then, I gave some pointers to a great demon and had him guard Hangu Pass in my place. Now that I've come back, I also need to go to Hangu Pass to see if there have been any problems."
Zhou Qing nodded and said, "Then Senior Brother, go ahead. My ancestor and I are also going to Kunlun. I don't know how long it will take before we come out, but it should be within one to three days."
Yin Xi smiled, patted the blue ox beneath him, and walked step by step toward Hangu Pass.
They seemed to have become one with heaven and earth; each step they took had a natural yet terrifying rhythm, and they quickly disappeared on the horizon.
"Let's go too," Zhou Qing said, disappearing from the spot with the Zhou family patriarch.
Kunlun, the ancestor of all mountains, was once home to some extraordinary races, known as the race closest to immortals in the world. They held themselves in high esteem and did not associate with the mortal world.
Later, although Kunlun lost those races, it became even more extraordinary because the Underworld Emperor used his incomparably powerful Origin Technique to set up ninety-nine great dragons, which were connected to the present Kunlun.
These ninety-nine great dragons are all extraordinary. Although such dragon mountains can be found in the Big Dipper Star Region, they are not numerous, let alone more than a dozen together, let alone ninety-nine intertwined. It is extremely terrifying!
However, these ninety-nine dragon mountains were eventually separated and transformed into the present-day Tianshan Mountains, Hengduan Mountains, Taihang Mountains, and the ancient Yellow River channel.
Today, a large part of Kunlun is hidden within an ancient magic array. After Zhou Qing and the Zhou family patriarch arrived in the Kunlun Mountains, they opened their Heavenly Eyes, bypassed the ancient magic array, and entered a vast and boundless region.
The true Kunlun Mountains are endless, stretching as far as the eye can see, majestic and awe-inspiring, like a living dragon lurking here, with each peak resembling a dragon's bone, soaring into the clouds, towering and magnificent.
Zhou Qing took out a crystal-clear scroll and activated it with his magic power. The scroll immediately emitted wisps of immortal light, enveloping his entire body.
Seemingly absorbing the familiar atmosphere of this area, the picture underwent a wondrous transformation.
