Chapter 45: Teleportation to Ten Thousand Immortals Island

Upon stepping into the Qi Refinement Stage, Li Fan immediately felt the earth-shattering changes within his body.

Spiritual Qi churned and circulated within him, silently nourishing and improving Li Fan's body, which had been slightly aged.

The fine wrinkles on his face disappeared, and his skin became delicate once again.

A long-lost vitality surged within Li Fan, as if he had returned to his youth, possessing inexhaustible energy.

Rejuvenated, his Physique had been greatly strengthened.

Most importantly, Li Fan could finally manipulate Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

Wisps of Spiritual Qi were controlled by Li Fan, transforming into various shapes.

Unfortunately, he was currently manipulating the Spiritual Qi based on instinct; to use it more efficiently, he would certainly need corresponding Spells.

After fumbling for a while, Li Fan dispersed the Spiritual Qi in his hand and focused his attention on the [Huan Zhen] panel.

Name: Li Fan

Realm: Early Stage Qi Refinement Stage

Physiological Age: 47 / 199

Psychological Age: 510 / 2169 ↑

After the Breakthrough to the Qi Refinement Stage, Li Fan's maximum Lifespan had reached the limit of one hundred and ninety-nine years.

The Five Spirits Qi Sensing Method had once mentioned that although the Lifespan of an Immortal Cultivator was far beyond that of ordinary people, it had been greatly suppressed compared to the ancient times.

The Lifespan of a Qi Refinement Stage Cultivator does not exceed two hundred years at most.

And a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator can only live for another hundred years or so before their limit approaches.

Only by achieving the Golden Core and glimpsing the Dao of Heaven and Earth can one's Lifespan increase explosively, reaching about five or six hundred years.

In contrast to his physiological age, his psychological age had hardly increased.

After all, it had already increased significantly through the practice of the Profound Yellow Heart Refining Mantra, so Li Fan did not feel particularly surprised.

Next, Li Fan took out the Thousand Machines Jade Universe Golden Chapter from the Taiyan Boat.

He had long since obtained this Nascent Soul Realm Cultivation Technique from Kou Hong, but had been unable to view it due to the lack of Divine Sense.

It had just been weighing on his mind.

Now that he had finally stepped into the Qi Refinement Stage, Li Fan was impatient to know its contents.

"Thousand Machines Jade Universe Golden Chapter, Nascent Soul Realm Cultivation Technique, current number of practitioners: 0."

Picking up the Jade Slip, the description of the Cultivation Technique naturally appeared in his mind.

Li Fan knew this was also a change that occurred after the Great Tribulation, when Immortal techniques could no longer be cultivated together.

With his Divine Sense sensing the Jade Slip, in an instant, countless words and images flooded into Li Fan's mind like a tide.

Reading a Jade Slip for the first time, Li Fan was still a bit unaccustomed to it.

He felt as if many things had been forcibly stuffed into his brain, and his temples were throbbing slightly.

Fortunately, his Divine Sense was much stronger than that of an average Qi Refinement Stage Cultivator, so he quickly adapted and returned to normal.

He calmed his mind and focused, carefully examining this Cultivation Technique.

After a long while, Li Fan finally had a general understanding of it.

The Thousand Machines Jade Universe Golden Chapter was the Cultivation Technique practiced by the Ancient Tianji Sect.

In ancient times, the emphasis was on the unity of Heaven and man.

The Celestial Mystery Sect believed that all things in Heaven and Earth, like humans, had their own thoughts.

It was difficult to perceive this through ordinary means.

But just as a person has killing intent when they have murderous thoughts, all things in Heaven and Earth also emit some Qi from time to time.

When Heaven emits killing intent, there are changes such as the withering of all things and the shifting of stars and constellations.

When Earth emits killing intent, there are changes such as the seas turning into mulberry fields and the rise of Dragons and snakes.

By capturing and refining the various Qi in Heaven and Earth, one can return to the source and reach a state of resonance and unity with them.

The Thousand Machines Jade Universe Golden Chapter is such a Cultivation Technique for sensing and refining Qi for one's own use.

After achieving Major Achievement in the Cultivation Technique, one can not only borrow the killing intent of Heaven and Earth to injure others, but also calculate and predict the future through the deduction of Qi.

This Cultivation Technique is very powerful, but it is also very dangerous to practice.

The will of Heaven and Earth is so vast that even a trace of the Qi it induces is a thousand times greater than that of a Cultivator.

Rashly coming into contact with it, one is easily injured by the Qi itself.

One might even be assimilated unknowingly and become a Puppet of the will of Heaven and Earth.

Therefore, when the Ancient Tianji Sect practiced, they would not choose to refine the Qi that senses Heaven and Earth, but would settle for the next best thing and use various substitute methods.

Cultivating one's own killing intent, taking the vitality of all things thriving in spring, sensing Qi from certain spiritual objects of Heaven and Earth…

Collecting thousands of Qi to cover oneself, thereby achieving the purpose of confusing the heavenly secrets and sensing the will of Heaven and Earth.

Theoretically, if this method is cultivated to the highest Realm, one can merge with Heaven and Earth and become an Incarnation of the Dao.

Unfortunately, that is only theoretical.

In reality, even with shortcuts, the Thousand Machines Jade Universe Golden Chapter is extremely difficult to Cultivate.

The Ancient Tianji Sect had a Legacy spanning ten thousand years, and there were tens of thousands of Cultivators who practiced the Thousand Machines Jade Universe Golden Chapter.

But the highest level reached was only the Nascent Soul Realm.

That was the case back then, not to mention the current Cultivation World where malice from Heaven and Earth is ubiquitous.

However, Li Fan had the help of [Huan Zhen], so he didn't need to worry too much about the risks he would encounter while practicing this Cultivation Technique.

Li Fan pondered for a moment; he did not need to be in a hurry to decide on his main Cultivation Technique.

He could go to Ten Thousand Immortals Island first to see the specific situation of the current Cultivation World before making further plans.

Thus, Li Fan came to the central array on Liuli Island, wanting to pay a visit to He Zhenghao.

Just as he arrived outside the array, he found that several servants had been waiting for a long time.

Led by the servants, Li Fan met He Zhenghao again.

The place where he was now was no longer the towering mountain peak from before, but an ordinary small hill.

Surrounded by mountains, it was unremarkable.

He Zhenghao was sitting in a small pavilion on the top of the mountain.

"I just sensed an anomaly in the Spiritual Qi on the island, and I knew it must be you who had made a Breakthrough."

He Zhenghao looked at Li Fan and said with a relieved expression, "Although it took a bit long, you made the Breakthrough after all."

"I must thank you for your guidance, Senior." Li Fan said politely.

"It was just a casual effort." Feeling the slight increase in his cultivation within his body, He Zhenghao said with a smile.

"You came to see me, are you planning to head to Ten Thousand Immortals Island?"

"Exactly. I have no worldly attachments, so I can depart at any time." Li Fan nodded.

"Good, in that case, come with me."

He Zhenghao flashed in front of Li Fan and grabbed his shoulder.

"Do not struggle."

Hearing He Zhenghao's voice in his ear, Li Fan dispersed the Spiritual Qi he had been using for self-protection.

Carried by He Zhenghao, Li Fan soared into the air and flew toward the sky.

The speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they had passed through the sea of clouds and arrived above the mountains.

"Rise!"

He Zhenghao pinched a seal with one hand and pointed at the rolling mountains below.

A moment later, countless mountain peaks in his field of vision shot out beams of white light, converging in front of He Zhenghao to form a huge ball of light.

"Open!"

He Zhenghao waved his hand upward.

The ball of light suddenly accelerated, following the direction guided by He Zhenghao, and went straight up.

In an instant, a beam of light that pierced through Heaven and Earth was formed.

It struck the sun in the sky.

The surface of the sun twisted for a moment, then cracked and split into two halves.

A teleportation gate was formed in the middle.

"Let's go!"
