Chương 132: Group Seclusion

The message conveyed by the Hongjun Ancestor was too terrifying: the calamity of the shattering of heaven and earth. Even the saints got goosebumps when they heard it.

They traveled to countless worlds and met countless saints.

There are differences between saints: Brick Saint, Foundation Establishment Saint, Nuclear Bomb Saint, Great World Saint... The higher the world level, the higher the level of the saint.

The majority of a sage's cultivation comes from the primordial world. When the primordial world prospers, the sage's magical power can be strong; when the primordial world declines, the sage's strength will plummet.

The thought that after the world was destroyed, they would become brick saints, and if someone hit them with a stick, they would cry out in pain, "Ouch, it hurts so much!" sent chills down their spines.

They had seen such things in the outer world!

A group of saints from another world were engaged in a battle when a volley of magic-breaking arrows came flying at them. The "otherworldly saints" either used magical artifacts to block the arrows or used their movement techniques to dodge them. One "otherworldly saint" was careless and was hit through the heart by a magic-breaking arrow. Although he was immortal, he was in so much pain that he grimaced.

The saints didn't look down on the "saints" of these small worlds; it was already quite remarkable that they could cultivate to the point of coexisting with the world in that kind of environment. However, it was more satisfying to annihilate them completely than to let them become such "saints."

The saints dismissed the younger generation and stayed at Jade Capital Mountain to hold a small meeting.

The Styx Ancestor, Zhenyuan Daxian, and other giants of heaven and earth were left behind by the saints. Their status in the world was extraordinary, and the cooperation of these people was necessary to develop the three paths of heaven, earth, and humanity.

Only the Kunpeng Ancestor, after uttering the words "I will not be born again in this great calamity," returned to his Northern Sea.

The Kunpeng Ancestor has always been a loner; otherwise, he wouldn't have been besieged by Dijun and Taiyi, and his true spirit wouldn't have been trapped in the Demon-Summoning Banner. Even in this great calamity, his style of doing things remains unchanged.

The sages understood the character of the Kunpeng Ancestor and did not force him to do anything against his will.

In any case, after the extraterrestrial demons invaded the prehistoric world, the Kunpeng Ancestor became a target for their refinement. Regardless of the Kunpeng Ancestor's current attitude, he will ultimately stand on the side of the prehistoric world when the great calamity arrives.

With so many guests departing from Zixiao Palace today, the Sages would certainly not cut off their own arm by eliminating their own high-level combat power.

While the sages and giants of heaven and earth discussed important matters concerning the Three Realms, Fang Yang, along with his junior brothers, embarked on their journey home. He had originally intended to attack the Six Immortals of Penglai, but unexpectedly, these six elders had gathered tens of thousands of immortals to form the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.

Now, Fang Yang had no choice but to abandon his plan.

The Myriad Immortals Formation is the strongest formation below the Saint-level formations, comparable only to Emperor Jun's Hunyuan Heluo Formation. Even if the Myriad Immortals Formation unleashed by the Six Immortals of Penglai and others could not exert its full power, Fang Yang would not dare to venture into the Myriad Immortals Formation alone.

The matter of dealing with the Six Immortals of Penglai can be discussed in detail over time.

It wouldn't be too late for Fang Yang to sound the horn of a full-scale battle once all the Nine Luminaries True Monarchs have attained the Great Luo realm, once Fairy Yunxiao has expressed her stance, and once those immortals in the Jie Sect who haven't yet declared their allegiance have come to join him.

Right now, his most important task is to return to the temple for seclusion and digest the gains from his trip to Yujing Mountain.

Hongjun Laozu issued a new decree to all the sages, indicating that there would be countless things to do after he emerged from seclusion. Even if he wanted to go into seclusion, he would no longer be able to.

If Fang Yang were merely an outer disciple, he would certainly have given up the opportunity to make contributions to the Jie Sect to his more outstanding senior brothers and sisters. Now, however, he felt it was only natural for him to step up.

The things of a sage are not so easy to obtain; the more he obtains, the more he has to do.

Aside from parents, no one would willingly nurture someone without expecting anything in return. The sages owe Fang Yang nothing; they give him benefits in the hope that he will contribute to the Xuanmen sect and the primordial world.

Fang Yang was not naive enough to think that just because he had high cultivation and performed well at the Dao Discussion Conference, he could rightfully receive rewards from the saints.

After greeting True Monarch Jiuyao and the others, Fang Yang entered the Qingcheng Immortal Mansion and began his long period of seclusion.

The tasks for this seclusion are very heavy. First, it is to refine the wordless heavenly book and the cloak of heaven. Second, it is to comprehend the golden body of relics, the Cundi mantra, and the great method of attaining enlightenment in dreams. Finally, it is to perfect the spiritual root and immortal path.

Of course, he also needs to take the Nine-Turn Great Golden Elixir.

The Nine-Turn Great Luo Golden Pill was hard-won, and Fang Yang was determined to consume it personally. Even if it only increased his strength by one percent, Fang Yang would be completely satisfied.

Fang Yang wasn't the only one in seclusion. After the Xuanmen Dao Discussion Conference, almost all the Xuanmen disciples in the entire prehistoric world entered a state of seclusion. The sermon in Zixiao Palace resulted in a significant improvement for everyone except those Jiejiao disciples who cultivated demonic arts.

This advancement is not in cultivation level, but in the theory of cultivation. What the immortals need to do now is to transform theory into practice, and then into tangible cultivation.

The Grandmaster Hongjun has just begun his sermon, and the knowledge in everyone's minds is still fresh. If you don't go into seclusion now, those insights will fade, and it will be difficult to regain this state of mind.

As it turns out, going into seclusion at this time was the right thing to do.

Three thousand years after the immortals went into seclusion, a river of destiny rose above the East Sea. A fairy in green robes floated up, stepping onto the river of destiny to the tune of a song of fate.

Golden flowers fell to the ground, golden lotuses surged from the sea, and the celestial light of the Upper Clarity surged and shone brightly, illuminating half of the sky.

The three island masters of the Three Immortal Islands, Qiongxiao Yuanjun, a disciple of the Jie Sect, has attained the Great Luo Dao!

Bixiao Fairy's breakthrough was just the beginning. Just as Yunxiao Fairy was preparing to hold a celebration for Bixiao Fairy's enlightenment, a strange phenomenon of someone attaining the Great Luo realm appeared in the sky above Qingcheng Mountain.

This time, it was Daojun Zhongyao who attained enlightenment.

His achievements were only considered slightly above average among the Nine Luminaries True Monarchs. However, the path to becoming a Great Luo Immortal is not judged by achievements, but by the opportune moment.

When the opportunity arises, even an immortal who has just reached the peak of Taiyi, or even one who hasn't reached the peak of Taiyi, can instantly become a Daluo. This is the kind of situation described as a sudden enlightenment leading to ascension in broad daylight.

Without the right opportunity, no matter how profound your cultivation or how hard you work, it will all be in vain.

Huanglong Zhenren is a good example. His cultivation level is not low among Taiyi Golden Immortals! If others had his cultivation level, they would have at least a 30% chance of attaining enlightenment.

But Huanglong Zhenren is different. Even if Huanglong Zhenren's cultivation level were ten times higher, he might not be able to become a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

"Hahaha! Junior brother, I never expected you to beat me to it."

Just as Daoist Zhongyao had attained enlightenment and hadn't even had time to fully savor the joy of his breakthrough, another figure broke through his barrier and arrived high in the sky.

Kan Yao Zhenjun's aura surged, drawing upon the heavens. Countless projections rushed from the past and future, pouring into his body. Kan Yao Zhenjun was about to break through!

Two great immortals appeared in a single day, and the extraordinary phenomenon of enlightenment at Mount Qingcheng astonished countless immortals. These immortals looked up at the sky, gazing in awe towards Mount Qingcheng.

In the eyes of the independent cultivators, Mount Qingcheng was becoming more and more mysterious and powerful.
