Chapter 591: Ancient Heavenly Palace Refining Treasure Land

Hearing Heishuizi's voice, Yu Lie was overjoyed.

However, he did not immediately send a message to Hei Shuizi, anxious to tell him his identity. Instead, he swept his consciousness in all directions, and after confirming that there were no other Taoists nearby, he chuckled and said:

"Master, I haven't seen you for many years, but do you still recognize me?"

When this voice sounded, the sexual light representing Hei Shuizi moved more violently, and he murmured:

"Who are you? Could it be that I have been in this damn place for so many years and my brain has been damaged?"

This person was mumbling to himself and didn't recognize Yu Lie at all.

Yu Lie was not annoyed when he saw this.

You must know that when he and Heishuizi parted ways, he had not even achieved the status of a Taoist disciple and had no spiritual consciousness. Even for his voice, there were many people with similar voices in the world. Heishuizi had not been with him for long, so it was normal that he could not remember him, a disciple who had not yet entered the door.

So Yu Lie simply sent out a stronger spiritual sense, showing his appearance to the other party's perception, and bowed to this person:

"Disciple Yu Lie greets the abbot!"

hum.

This time, Heishuizi reacted. His sexual energy suddenly became brighter and his spiritual consciousness surged out, covering everything around him.

But Heishuizi did not respond immediately. He muttered in his heart, wondering if he was really confused, because there was no one within his field of vision.

It was Yu Lie who told the other party everything he, Tie Jianlan and others knew about the blood mist space. Only then did Heishuizi completely confirm Yu Lie's identity.

"Good, good, good!"

Hei Shuizi uttered a series of good words, and he said excitedly:

“When I heard about you from Junior Sister Zizhu earlier, saying that you had also become a Taoist priest, I was quite skeptical. But when she said that the two of you had killed Bai Chaozi and that she had achieved a top-grade golden elixir, I was even more incredulous.

Now it seems that you two have never deceived me! Hahaha!"

I saw a dilapidated corner of a wall in the secret realm.

Heishuizi had an old face. He sat cross-legged alone, looking at the desolate scene around him. His heart was churning and he howled to the sky.

"My direct descendant in the palace is not inferior to others. We will continue the tradition and produce many talented people!"

After being excited for thirty breaths, Heishuizi slowly calmed down.

He took a look at his slovenly appearance, glanced at the corpse lying next to him, and sighed:

“Yu Lie, you have already reached the Perfection of Condensation, but I am still only at the Refining Gang stage. I am about to be caught up by you. I am really holding you back.”

When Yu Lie learned that Heishuizi was now a Taoist priest practicing Liangang, he was actually quite surprised. He felt that this old fellow's training speed was quite fast.

Because it takes an ordinary Taoist at least a hundred years to cultivate to the level of Lian Gang, and Heishuizi has only been away from successfully building his foundation for a few decades.

"In this case, it is very likely that the old man will be able to form a pill in this lifetime."

Yu Lie was delighted by this and immediately said a few words of comfort and praised him a lot.

Heishuizi felt a little relieved after hearing Yu Lie's consolation and flattery, but he suddenly heard Yu Lie's last sentence:

"Master, please don't compare yourself with me. I have come this far just because I was lucky. How can I compare to you who has taken steady steps and made steady progress!"

These words almost angered Heishuizi to death.

"You are still as smooth-tongued as ever. I guess my junior sister was dragged into this situation by you and became your disciple."

After humming a few times, Heishuizi displayed his powerful refining aura and said proudly:

“Although my cultivation is not high and I am still far from forming a pill, I am only one step away.”

This fellow showed an experienced and pure internal energy. Although he had not yet perfected his internal energy, he was only a few years away from it.

This frightened Yu Lie even more, and he suddenly remembered something.

According to Tie Jianlan, Heishuizi's cultivation level was only at the Nengsha stage before he fell into the secret realm.

In five years, the other party was able to break through to the level of Lian Gang Qi, and cultivated his Gang Qi to such a pure level. It was obvious that he had gained great benefits in the secret realm.

Yu Lie's heart warmed, and he immediately asked the other party what treasures were in the secret realm.

Heishuizi also understood that Yu Lie was now traveling in the secret realm in a Yin spirit state. He had not entered the secret realm in person and could not see the various scenes in the secret realm.

He thought for a moment and said, "There are many risks here. It would be too complicated to list them one by one. You just need to remember that once you enter this place, you must be cautious at every step and beware of dead objects. And those things that can move are the most dangerous. Every blade of grass and every tree may be dangerous."

Hei Shuizi pinched his beard and said, "As for the benefits, the biggest one is the spiritual energy of this place."

This beast spoke in an excited tone, like a gambler who had won the bet, and said:

"Every wisp of spiritual energy here, I mean every wisp, is ancient spiritual energy, extremely refined and pure! I suspect that it may have even been refined by immortals. For people like me who are in the immortal way, taking it is like drinking nectar or taking medicine!

If you can step into this place, even if you do nothing but breathe more, it will be better than any spiritual place you have ever been to in the outside world."

When Yu Lie heard this, he also became excited.

But after a while of excitement, Yu Lie calmed down again and realized that he had already perfected the Condensation of Evil. If he did not break through to the Refining of Gang, even if it was the best spiritual energy, he could only store it in his pocket or in his purple mansion and use it another day.

But he was not disappointed, instead he immediately asked the most critical and anticipated question for him.

Yu Lie took a deep breath and said:

"Then may I ask, Master Daoist, is there any Gang Qi in this secret realm? And what kind of Gang Qi is it?"

Heishuizi, who was sitting cross-legged among the ruins, heard this. He looked at the black energy that trapped him here with a strange look and replied:

"Of course there are, and there are more than one. This place seems to be shrouded in thousands of Gang Qi, which is very similar to the Gangfeng layer environment in the Mountain and Sea Realm. Of the so-called thirty-six kinds of Tian Gang in the realm, I have seen no less than twenty of them here."

This answer was completely beyond Yu Lie's expectations, and he was frightened for a moment. He even suspected that Heishuizi was deliberately deceiving him so that he could quickly enter the secret realm and rescue the old guy.

Fortunately, Hei Shuizi immediately spoke up and explained:

"People only know that this secret realm is the Secret Realm of the City of Disaster, and it has a history of ten thousand years. But I have been trapped here for five years, and happened to survive the death of a native of the Chaos Realm, so I know a little more.

Yu Lie, do you know what the immortals in the Shanhai Realm were called in ancient times, and what is the bloodline?"

Yu Lie had received formal Taoist education and was not a wild Taoist from the Chaos Domain. He said without hesitation:

"My disciples know that the immortals were originally called 'Qi-refining practitioners' or 'Qi-refining practitioners of the Qin Dynasty'. Then the martial arts emerged and the immortals became independent. Eventually, the emperor unified the immortals and martial arts, founded the Immortal Court, organized the immortals, and established the current method of taking medicine to maintain health and cultivating both sex and life."

Heishuizi pinched his beard and nodded, "That's right, I'm from Heishui Town, I haven't forgotten these principles at all."

These words left Yu Lie speechless for a while.

Although he did start his journey in Blackwater Town, his elementary education was completed in Qianshui County. While in Blackwater Town, he neglected many classics and just tried to survive.

After Heishuizi boasted about himself for a while, he changed the subject and said:

"Compared to the ancient times, there is one thing that is very different in the Shanhai Realm today. This thing is not the method of taking medicine to maintain health and cultivating both sex and life that you mentioned. The immortal way seeks change, and it is not a stubborn thing. Strictly speaking, in the Qi Refining period, every cultivator cultivated both sex and life, and loved to take all kinds of things."

At this point, Heishuizi said in a complicated tone: "This is something very different, it is the current Xianting Daoting."

He paused and explained in detail:

“Since the time of the Qi-refining masters of the Qin Dynasty, practitioners have attempted to unify the mountain and sea realms, establish the Immortal Court, and even reach the Divine Han and Holy Tang… Many Taoists have come one after another, but in the end they only established Taoist palaces everywhere, creating the system of the Three Mountains Talismans, thousands of jungles, Taoist palaces and Taoist temples.

Well, that's getting off topic. "

Heishuizi sat cross-legged in the secret realm, stroking the broken walls beside him with his hands: "In short, from ancient times to the present, the immortals have always wanted to establish a lower immortal court. It's just that it was not called 'immortal court' before, but was called 'heavenly court'."

When the word "Heaven" came out of the other party's mouth, Yu Lie immediately understood what the other party said.

He had a guess in his mind and said hesitantly, "Master, are you trying to say that the secret realm of the City of Misfortune is the remains of the Heavenly Palace of a certain dynasty?"

"Exactly!"

Heishuizi answered affirmatively, and said: "It is not the kind of heaven that was created by the gods or during the Holy Tang Dynasty. Although it calls itself the Heavenly Palace, it is just a blessed land, or even just a grass-roots Heavenly Palace of an immortal garden.

Under this disaster star city is the heaven of the Qi-refining masters who almost commanded the universe and traversed the three thousand worlds during the Xian Qin period! Of course, it is only part of it. "

Boom.

When Yu Lie heard these words, he was overjoyed and began to believe what Heishuizi had just said, that the secret realm was full of strong energy.

Because according to the ancient books, the ancient heaven was built in the Gangfeng layer, not outside the mountain and sea. It stretched from top to bottom and was called the "Thirty-six Heavens".

The saying of the thirty-six kinds of Tiangang in the world was first passed down from the thirty-six heavens in heaven.

If the secret realm under the City of Misfortune is really the ancient heaven, then it is natural that there are many Gang Qi in it. It would be extremely abnormal if there is no Gang Qi.

According to the research of today's Taoists, the reason why the ancient Heavenly Palace was located in the Gangfeng layer rather than in the void was not only because the Gangfeng layer could resist attacks from outside the domain, but there was another more important point, which was to control the Gangfeng layer and manage the Gangqi!

Because after practicing Taoism and learning the law, it is not difficult for a cultivator to acquire the ability to levitate. It can be done with some Taoist methods, or even without using any Taoist methods, one can rise to high places through various magic tricks.

However, the reason why this action is called "levitation" rather than "flying" is because the strong wind layer is like a roof that is infinitely wide and infinitely long, blocking and killing many Taoists who intend to fly.

Without the ability to cultivate the Gang Qi and without the Gang Qi, a practitioner will not be able to step into the Gang Feng layer and will absolutely not be able to leave the realm of mountains and seas.

Therefore, in ancient times, those who could cultivate the inner energy and fly into the sky were regarded as immortals.

In ancient times, the Heavenly Court controlled the Gang Qi in an attempt to control the spiritual practice of the world. Those who failed to achieve the goal without the Heavenly Court's permission were prohibited from ascending.

Many thoughts were swirling in Yu Lie's mind. He was extremely happy and murmured:

"I heard that during the Xian Qin period, the Heavenly Court once really achieved the goal of 'forbidding ascension after the establishment of the dynasty'. Although it was only twelve years, during these twelve years, the Qi-refining masters of the Xian Qin collected and melted the Qi in the world and stored it in various palaces in the Heavenly Court..."

In other words, the Qi in the secret realm of Huoxing City is not only older than the Qi in the current Mountain and Sea Realm, but is also likely to be of better quality, and may have been refined by Qi cultivators in advance!

This is not Yu Lie's random thoughts, favoring the past over the present.

It’s the Mountain and Sea Realm of ancient times, especially during the Xian Qin period, where the origin of the world was not lost and it was originally a vast world. It is not at all comparable to the Mountain and Sea Realm of today, which has barely grown back by constantly annexing other worlds.

As expected, Heishuizi heard Yu Lie mumbling to himself and replied:

"Yes, it is precisely because of the ancient spiritual energy and pure Gang Qi here that I have almost reached the perfection of Gang Refining Realm in just five years."

After receiving the affirmation, Yu Lie spoke generously:

"Master, since you are in such a dangerous place, don't worry, I will come to rescue you immediately!"

Heishuizi burst out laughing, realizing that Yu Lie was impatient and also wanted to come to the secret realm to practice his Qi.

He quickly stopped her and said:

"Wait! Although this place is good, it is full of dangers. And before the Chaos Immortal Palace truly opens its secret realm, you can't stay here for long with the blood order. It is very likely that you will have to leave when you are at a critical juncture in your refining."

Yu Lie regained his consciousness and felt a sense of difficulty in his heart.

It was indeed as Heishuizi said. If he entered the secret realm to practice the Qi in advance, he would be easily hindered by the blood order. Even if the blood order gave him enough time, there was no guarantee that the person behind the blood order would not come to interfere with him.

Although Yu Lie was 90% confident about the process of refining the power and was sure that he would not fail, that was based on the assumption that no one would interfere.

There is absolutely no possibility of a breakthrough in this stage of advancement and transformation. One must build an altar, a quiet room, burn incense, bathe, and calm the mind and temperament in order to achieve it.

Any additional interference may cause the Taoist to go astray.

Yu Lie pondered in his heart: "Could it be that I can only stay in the City of Misfortune and wait for this secret realm to be truly opened, or should I risk entering the secret realm multiple times, picking out the Gang Qi in batches, and then refining the Gang Qi?"

Fortunately, at this moment, a chuckle came from Hei Shuizi's mouth:

"Silly child, don't worry. With me here, I guarantee you can come in and practice as soon as possible."

Yu Lie was surprised when he heard this, and then he heard Heishuizi say:

"Besides, you don't need to come in person to help me escape..."
