Two Realms High Martial Arts: Gathering the Heavens to Become a Great Luo Immortal

Chapter 143 Please take a seat, Entering the Western Regions

"Whether the 'Contemplation of the White Bones in the Forest of the Three Realms' is due to the nature of this world or its connection to Tibetan Buddhism in the Western Regions, is unknown."

"I feel like this visualization method is even more sinister than the 'Incarnation of the Eternal Mother Sutra'?"

Li Xijun had some doubts.

"Once you have mastered the Buddhist visualization techniques, the Confucian supreme visualization techniques will be the easiest to obtain at that time."

The old emperor paid no attention to Li Xijun's thoughts about Buddhism in the Western Regions and continued speaking.

This caused Li Xijun to lean forward slightly.

The attainment of the supreme contemplation method that unites the three teachings is crucial to the strength of one's future manifestation of sainthood.

Judging from what this old emperor is saying, it seems that he can also get his hands on the Confucian supreme viewpoint?

"Your Majesty means...?" Li Xijun couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Among the three religions, Confucian scholars are the most engaged in worldly affairs. Unlike Buddhism and Taoism, which seek faith and incense offerings, Confucian scholars are united with the imperial court and use the power of the common people to forge a sage-like image."

The old emperor didn't keep us in suspense and began to explain:

"Throughout the past thousand years, great Confucian scholars entered the world, becoming important ministers and high-ranking officials, though they sometimes clashed with the imperial power of the Heavenly Dragon Emperor."

"But now the Seven Gods Church of the Western Continent is stirring up trouble, and Confucian cultivators ultimately still need the support of the imperial court and the imperial power."

"Boyan was originally from a Confucian family, so there are some things he can't do to help you get what you want."

"But once you achieve the Martial Saint of Fist Intent and meet You Li, the matter of the Confucian Supreme Visualization Method will not be too difficult."

At this point, the old emperor, seemingly lost in thought, sighed softly:

"You will know the specifics in time. Just treat Youli well in the future."

Having said that, without waiting for Li Xijun's response,

The old emperor, who exuded a sense of decay, suddenly waved his sleeve, and a gust of wind carried him directly to the gate of the Forbidden City.

"Go... and quickly cultivate your fist intent."

The sounds of panting faded away with the gentle breeze.

Feeling the gentle breeze just now, Li Xijun couldn't help but sigh.

It truly lived up to its reputation as a being capable of overpowering even the gods in its prime.

I almost didn't react to that move.

"Yes, I still need to work hard and achieve great success as soon as possible."

After giving myself a pep talk...

As soon as he left the Forbidden City, he saw a scene of far greater liveliness than he had imagined.

Even after quite a while,

The entire capital city is still like a pot of boiling water, bubbling and surging endlessly.

Even because of this period of time,

The civil and military officials emerged to confirm the winner of this year's "Eastern and Western Continents' Number One Martial Arts Tournament."

After the news spread of Li Xijun's powerful display of slaughtering various demonic medicine cultivators from the Western Continent,

The feeling of boiling over didn't subside; instead, it intensified.

Even throughout the city, from royalty and nobles to ordinary people in the alleys,

Everyone has heard the story of how the young martial saint turned the tide of today's battle, slaying three people and killing the divine son with his fist.

This resulted in an increase in the number of people on the Imperial Street leading directly to the Forbidden City, with countless people eagerly awaiting his arrival.

"It's out! It's out!"

"Killing Martial Arts School! Li Xijun of Tianjin! Hero! Hero!" Someone excitedly slapped their thigh.

"I knew it! Our Great Sheng is a vast and resource-rich land, teeming with talented people. How can we allow the barbarians of the Western Lands to run rampant! Young Master Li is truly awe-inspiring!"

The wealthy and powerful figures seated in the elegant teahouse could no longer maintain their composure. They leaned out of the windows and shouted, "Young Master Li, good! Well done! That's satisfying! So satisfying!"

The elegantly dressed ladies nearby also disregarded their manners and leaned forward to look towards the city gate, their eyes sparkling with admiration as they whispered about the extraordinary demeanor of this "Young Master Li" who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

The peddlers and laborers, who had been bustling with business and constantly shouting their wares, now forgot about buying and selling, all crowding into the throng and joining in the cheering. The young man selling peanuts threw down his basket and waved his hands excitedly: "Young Master Li! You've brought honor to Tianjin! You've brought honor to Dasheng!"

Fanaticism and catharsis!

Since the First World War between the East and West, the Great Sheng was defeated and had to sign treaties, open ports, and even become superior to foreigners.

Over the years, almost everyone has been holding back a lot of resentment.

The humiliation, frustration, and unease that had been suppressed for so long were completely overwhelmed by this earth-shattering battle report, transforming into a jubilant and proud outburst.

The crowd surged, the sound was deafening, and the entire Forbidden City seemed to tremble beneath our feet.

"Young Master Li's divine power is unparalleled!"

"Upholding our national prestige! How magnificent is the Great Sheng Dynasty!"

"Killing Body Martial Arts School! Number One in the World!"

Cheers, exclamations, and praises mingled together, burning like the most intense flames beneath the Forbidden City.

At this moment, Li Xijun clearly felt the various wishes emanating from the entire capital city.

It transformed into blazing golden threads and landed on the Eternal Mother visualized in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Although it was far less of the quality and quantity of the power of will I had obtained in the main world.

However, the intensity and purity within it were even greater than before.

"For a Nascent Soul cultivator to break through to become a Manifestation Saint True Lord, besides meeting the required spiritual level..."

"The most important thing is to have sufficient willpower, and generally, it needs to be positive willpower, to bring together one's own mental image."

"I didn't deeply understand what Boyan Gong said when I was in the Fetal Breathing Realm before."

"Now that I've left my body and am feeling the power of all living beings upon me, I truly feel that the desires of humankind are indeed incredibly mysterious."

After his breakthrough, Li Xijun was even more moved by this scene.

After returning the greetings to the crowds from all directions who had gathered in the capital, he...

His figure flashed and instantly disappeared into the sky.

After his body separated from his physical form, he could easily use his mental powers to help his physical body fly.

In just a few breaths, they were back in the attic of the National Martial Arts Masters Association.

"Master Li has arrived!"

As soon as Li Xijun entered the National Martial Arts Masters Association, a Marrow Cleansing Master who had been waiting at the entrance immediately called out.

Before the marrow cleansing master could even step forward, the entire back of the National Martial Arts Masters Association was already in an uproar.

Three figures emerged from behind almost simultaneously to personally greet them.

Even Li Xijun was momentarily taken aback by such treatment.

"Seniors, there's no need for such a fuss."

He quickly stepped forward to greet them and said politely.

"Ah, that's not quite right. Master Li personally killed that foreign genius and prodigy, bringing fame to our Great Sheng Martial Arts. This mere small gift is nothing!"

The leader of the Gentleman Sword Alliance, Yue, spoke first, and his manners were the most respectful.

"Indeed, it is a great thing that our martial arts masters' association has produced a blood-changing martial saint who has achieved the ability to refine the spirit and separate the body."

Dugu Bo nodded in agreement.

"Hahaha, please don't stand on ceremony, Master. Our guild has already prepared a banquet to celebrate your victory in martial arts and your achievement of Nascent Soul cultivation."

Seeing that Li Xijun's attitude remained unchanged, Ao Jinshan became even more enthusiastic and pulled her into the backyard together.

but,

This time when Li Xijun entered the hall,

But it's no longer like before.

Led by Ao Jinshan, they got to know the martial saints who sat on the large ebony chairs on both sides.

The moment Li Xijun and the three martial arts masters entered the room,

Those martial saints who were high and mighty in various forces, prefectures and counties, and even in Tianjin and Guangdong, sitting on grand chairs, all stood up and bowed in greeting.

"Congratulations to Master Li on winning the martial arts championship!"

"Master Li's martial arts talent is so outstanding that it surpasses all others throughout history."

"Master Li's fist technique is truly divine!"

The martial saints on both sides all had smiles on their faces.

Li Xijun was surrounded by three martial arts masters and arrived at the top position.

The original three seats have now clearly become four, and the newly added one is right in the middle, next to President Dugu Bo.

Li Xijun declined as was customary, and everyone else followed suit with their usual remarks.

After he and the other three martial arts masters took their seats, the atmosphere in the entire association immediately reached a new level.

As various snacks, dishes, and drinks were served, the celebratory banquet continued until nightfall, at which point the various martial arts masters dispersed.

When the servants had cleaned the entire hall, leaving only Li Xijun and Dugu Bo,

The chairman then took out an exquisite wine flask that had been prepared beforehand.

This immediately cleared Li Xijun's mind, and her gaze was involuntarily drawn to it.

Without a doubt, this should be the [Drunken Immortal Wine] that can help people unleash and concentrate their fighting spirit.

"Today's competition is largely thanks to you, Master. I'm afraid you've already heard enough of what I have to say, so I will say no more."

Dugu Bo solemnly handed the wine flask to Li Xijun, saying with a serious expression:

"This [Drunken Immortal Wine] is the result of many years of research by the Chinese martial arts masters. It can help martial saints to stimulate their spirit and concentrate their fist intent."

"To be on the safe side, we should use external events as a trigger to get things started."

"Back then, during the Southeast naval battle, I saw those foreigners running rampant and killing innocent people indiscriminately, not even sparing the naked infants. My spirit was ignited, and after drinking this wine, I immediately gathered my [fist intent] and sank that iron-framed warship."

"Although the world is still turbulent and undercurrents are surging, most places are still relatively stable."

"Because I suggested that Master Li could go to the Western Regions and travel around, which would surely bring him some rewards."

"However, based on my experience and that of the National Martial Arts Masters Association, it is best not to distance yourself from the world as you have before when traveling through this land, but rather to try to personally experience all aspects of this journey through the human world."

Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Li Xijun was slightly surprised.

He hadn't expected that the place the other party had suggested was also in the Western Regions.

What a coincidence! He needed to go to the Western Regions to obtain that supreme visualization method.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Dugu. I will set off for the Western Regions tomorrow."

Li Xijun remained expressionless, simply nodding in agreement and accepting the wine pouch.

Afterwards, Dugu Bo imparted knowledge about the various Buddhist temples in the Western Regions and presented him with a map showing the route from Sichuan to the Western Regions.

After a long chat, Li Xijun, who had gained a lot, got up to say goodbye.

But when he pushed open the door and had already stepped one foot out...

"Li Wusheng..."

'

Behind him came Dugu Bo's sincere voice.

"After you have condensed your fist intent, we hope that you will take a look at the road ahead on our behalf."

Li Xijun did not turn around.

But from the sound of clothes rustling behind him, he could imagine the old martial saint's devout posture, with his hands clasped in prayer and his head bowed deeply.

"That day will come."

Li Xijun spoke calmly, and then, without pausing, continued walking, crossing the threshold and heading forward.

The night sky was a deep, inky blue, with a bright moon hanging high in the sky, seemingly cast from molten silver, clear and bright, silently illuminating the world.

While the entire capital was still immersed in cheers and celebrations.

Li Xijun has quietly disappeared and left, beginning his journey westward.

Based on Dugu Bo's experience, he didn't fly directly there like a high and mighty detached immortal.

Instead, they walked the entire way, traversing one place after another.

According to the map plan, the plan is to first enter Sichuan and Chongqing, then cross the snow-capped mountains at the junction of Sichuan and Tibet, and finally enter the Western Regions.

Ten days later, in Bashu, Jiange County, a place extremely far from the Western Regions, it was originally not a prosperous place.

However, because of the Sword Pavilion, a sect founded by the Manifestation Saint True Lord, it has been developing here, and the Sword Pavilion has been suppressed by Nascent Soul True Persons in every generation.

For hundreds of miles around Jiange County, it has always been peaceful and prosperous.

Many chambers of commerce traveling from Sichuan and Chongqing to Tibet choose to stop here for supplies and passage, and even for trade.

Therefore, Jian Ge gradually became a famous and prosperous place in Bashu. So much so that the third and fourth princes, who were involved in the famous struggle for the throne among the nine princes that caused a great uproar in Dasheng, often came to Jian Ge County after being exiled to Bashu, showing respect to the local sages and trying to recruit that Nascent Soul cultivator.

this day,

In the most conspicuous and luxurious restaurant in the city,

Because of the fact that the exam was conducted in the area where Sichuan and the Western Regions meet, coupled with the trade of many precious medicinal materials such as saffron and snow lotus in the Western Regions, as well as the demand of the Buddhist gentry in the Western Regions for gold, silver, precious utensils, delicacies and antiques from the outside world.

This place is also frequented by a large number of martial arts practitioners and cultivators who use the trade routes to make their fortunes.

Nowadays, almost everyone in this restaurant carries a knife or sword, and there are even people carrying steam guns, which are popular in the West now.

As the restaurant was bustling as usual, two handsome men dressed in fine clothes, exuding an air of nobility, walked in.

The leader was tall and slender, with gentle eyes that gave people a feeling of warmth and comfort.

Following behind him was a man with a similar appearance but an extremely robust physique, with a short horn faintly visible on his forehead, indicating his identity as a Celestial Dragon.

"Greetings, Third Prince and Fourth Prince."

"Your Highness is here for drinks today too?"

"Your Highness, you have truly remained as charming as ever since I last saw you."

It was clear that the tall, thin young man leading the group was quite well-known in the area, and wherever he went, people mostly expressed their admiration for him.

Su Honglang responded with light laughs, and as he was about to head up the stairs to the second floor, he turned back to give the waiter a word of advice:

"Put all the expenses of these heroes on my tab today, and let them eat and drink to their hearts' content."

"Alright!"

His Highness spoke calmly and made no public announcement.

However, the waiter here was shrewd. After serving Su Honglang and his companion upstairs, he immediately came down and shouted:

"His Highness has stated that all expenses incurred by the heroes today will be paid by His Highness!"

Upon hearing this, the lobby erupted in cheers.

Despite not appearing rude and arrogant, he became even louder after drinking heavily:

"His Highness is truly magnanimous and benevolent. Although I, Lu Da, am a rough man, I will always remember His Highness's kindness."

"Absolutely! Absolutely!"

"What the Great Sheng needs is a benevolent ruler like Your Highness!"

"Having mastered both literary and martial arts, I will naturally serve the imperial family. Your Highness is benevolent and magnanimous; this is the mark of an enlightened ruler!"

Many people took advantage of the situation to incite trouble, thinking that no matter how many people they could fool on the spot, at least they could spread the word about their benevolence and righteousness.
