I'm already a Great Luo Golden Immortal, how come you're only Martial Saints?

Bodhi Patriarch was sitting in meditation on the futon. Upon hearing this, he slowly opened his eyes, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

The patriarch's peaceful and melodious voice reached Monkey King's ears.

"You monkey, don't make a fuss. This is no ordinary stone sitting still. It is the only way for you, Junior Brother Wuchen, to transcend the mortal realm and explore the profound mysteries of the Great Dao."

Monkey blinked, puzzled.

"But, I see weeds growing all over my junior brother's face, even vines are sprouting from his eyes. Is he really alright?"

The monkey felt a lingering fear upon thinking about this.

"I once saw an old monkey die in the mountains. Over time, its remains grew flowers and grass, and gradually decayed..."

The patriarch shook his head and smiled.

"Do you think your junior brother is like you, born with an immaculate immortal body, destined to become a true immortal the moment he begins cultivation?"

The Bodhi Patriarch patiently explained to the monkey.

"Your junior brother stirred up the world in Zhongnan Mountain. He used that fox spirit to overcome his inner tribulation. He felt something in his heart and his spirit merged with heaven and earth. In the stillness, he absorbs the essence of the sun and moon every day to temper his Dao heart and primordial spirit. This is the state of meditation and spiritual travel in the vast void. The plants and trees you see are not withered and decayed, but rather full of vitality and a sign of breathing with all things."

The patriarch was still worried about the monkey, so he spoke up again to reassure him.

"Don't worry, it's not a bad thing at all, but a great blessing. Just wait patiently and don't disturb this hard-won opportunity."

Sun Wukong was still puzzled after hearing this, but seeing his master's firm words and calm expression, his anxious heart was calmed down a bit.

However, he still couldn't help but go to the edge of the cliff every day to look at it from afar. As time went by, not only did grass grow on Ning Chen's body, but some of it even blossomed.

The monkey was horrified.

Oh no, is my junior brother about to bear fruit?!

Time seems to stand still in the mountains; for Ning Chen, who was immersed in profound insights, time had completely lost its measure.

With the old Taoist priest passing away, Luo Zhantian boldly launched his Blue Star Divine Realm Traveler Mass Training Program.

Overnight, Louguantai Ancestral Temple saw an influx of thousands of seekers who came to pay homage to the mountain gate. These were all cultivators who had achieved some success in the martial arts world, and their starting point was much higher than that of ordinary people.

One of the black-haired indigenous youths concealed his magical powers, changed his appearance, and quietly blended into the group of worshippers.

But because they couldn't match the code, what was the next line for "Imperial Jade Liquor"?

Being eliminated in the first round made the black-haired youth extremely suspicious of this so-called Tianyi Sect!

what?

Me? The dignified Grand Master Xuandu, unable to even pass the first test for a disciple of a mortal sect?

No, why should I?

What criteria do you use to select your disciples?

In particular, after learning more about it, he discovered that this Tianyi Sect was actually a lineage that his master had casually left behind in the mortal realm, which had grown and developed into its current form.

He became even more indignant!

I am the only formal disciple under my master at this moment. Even your founding patriarchs must respectfully address me as Senior Brother.

That depends on whether I'm willing to acknowledge him!

Do you dare refuse to accept me today?

Is there no justice or law anymore?

Xuan Du was still not giving up and tried again. This time the code was, "You are the most beautiful cloud in my sky." What was the next line?

Xuan Du failed to answer again, thus missing his chance to enter the sect. He looked up at the sky, utterly speechless.

Since he would be whipped by his master's senior brother, the Green Ox, anyway, Xuandu simply built a thatched hut on Zhongnan Mountain to cultivate there and observe closely.

He firmly believed that by using the method of waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump, he would eventually find his master's successor.

The group was completely unaware of the arrival of Grand Master Xuandu, and spent their days sharing updates on the Tianyi Sect in the group chat!

Tang Hao:

[Haha, Ning Chen, I am now the eighth-generation leader of the Tianyi Sect. From now on, when you see me, you can call me Leader Tang! I already possess ten years' worth of true qi; if converted to internal energy, that's a hundred years' worth!]

Luo Zhantian:

[Ning Chen, come visit Tianyi Sect when you have time. Your juniors have heard so much about you and all want to meet you!]

[Ning Chen, today the Tianyi Sect has reached a scale of 3,600 people, all of whom are Divine Realm cultivators. This is an unprecedented and unparalleled spectacle!]

[The day when the leak of the Blue Star Divine Realm is completely resolved is just around the corner!]

Sun Rongrong secretly sent a private message to Ning Chen.

[Brother Ning, Qing'er is growing up so fast, she looks about seven or eight years old now. She keeps asking me when you're going to visit her, saying she misses you!]

Ning Chen was completely unaware of all this. He was in a state of spiritual wandering, his spirit and body in harmony with the heavens and the earth. He had completely forgotten about time, neither eating nor drinking, and just sat there blankly!

Gradually, everyone noticed that something was wrong.

[Brother Ning, why aren't you saying anything? Did something happen?]

[Ning Chen, if you have any difficulties, tell your teacher. I'll definitely help you with anything I can! If all else fails, Qing'er can find someone to help you!]

[Ning-ge, Qing'er asked me why you haven't gone to see her yet? Nezha the Third Prince came again a few days ago, and he even brought Qing'er a gift! He also asked about you.]

Fortunately, Ning Chen's profile picture remained normal in the chat group and did not turn gray.

Seeing that he hadn't replied to any messages, the others stopped bothering him.

Finally, with only one day left before the deadline for the Divine Realm Travelers to return to Earth, the deadline had arrived.

The long-silent summit of Fangcun Mountain is about to undergo an unprecedented change!

Before dawn, all was quiet.

Just as the heavens and earth were in harmony, and yin and yang were beginning to separate, at the very moment when the eastern sky was just beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn!

Luo Zhantian sent a message.

[Ning Chen, today is the day we return to Blue Star. Your teacher doesn't know what happened to you; you haven't spoken in the group for over six months. You must find a way back! We'll be waiting for you on Blue Star!]

Bodhi Patriarch calculated with his fingers and realized, "Hmm, it's time for Wuchen to descend to the mortal realm again."

It's normal for him to wander in the void for ten or eight years.

There are cultivators who sit in seclusion in the mountains for a hundred years, and when they wake up again, it is already a different world. But my disciple is different. He does not return to the lower realm, so I will not have the ritual of quick cultivation.

The patriarch spoke softly.

"Wu Chen, it's time to go back. Return at once!"

The patriarch's voice, like a grand bell, exploded in Ning Chen's sea of ​​consciousness. This voice traveled through his body and instantly spread to all corners of the world, shaking and awakening all of Ning Chen's external consciousness.

Ning Chen's eyelids trembled violently. Should he go back? If so, then wake up!

With a slight thought!

boom!

An invisible, powerful suction force suddenly erupted from where he was sitting!

In an instant, the purple aura of the rising sun, which should have spread across the land and nourished all things at dawn, seemed to have received a supreme decree over the entire Fangcun Mountain Range!

The purple aura was no longer evenly distributed, but transformed into billions of visible, condensed, and tangible streams of purple-gold light, converging into roaring rivers of light that surged wildly toward the top of the Star Gazing Cliff and toward Ning Chen's body!

Just then, the monkey, as was his routine, came to the summit of Fangcun Mountain to observe his junior brother!

The sight at this moment left even the Monkey King somewhat dazed. High in the sky, the morning glow had lost its color, and the mountains were shrouded in a vacuum.

Wherever Ning Chen was, the light shone brightly, like a purple sun that had absorbed all the essence of the dawn!

This is exactly what is recorded in Taoist classics: when a cultivator comprehends the Dao of Heaven and breaks through to the Dao Integration Realm, he draws upon the primordial purple energy of Heaven and Earth to cleanse his primordial spirit, a supreme phenomenon.

Seize the power of heaven and earth, and absorb the first rays of the purple palace!
