“Huff… ”
After enduring the grueling process of Marrow Cleansing and Rebirth for quite some time, Lu Changsheng finally managed to persevere. He emerged as if crawling out of a muddy pit, gasping for breath, with all the impurities within him expelled.
The Innate Taoist Body contained not a speck of impurity and merged seamlessly with heaven and earth. Even without conscious breathing, the spiritual energy around him would flow into his Innate Taoist Body, making Lu Changsheng’s practice advance at an incredible pace.
Following his Rebirth, Lu Changsheng also gained a special physique.
“The second layer of the Taiqing Wuji Technique, I’ve fully comprehended it.”
The Cultivation Technique that had once puzzled Lu Changsheng was now completely understood.
This is the power of the Innate Taoist Body!
“This Innate Taoist Body might not be inferior to the Elder Brother’s Eternal Wilderness Body.”
Lu Changsheng was thrilled.
The Innate Taoist Body rewarded by the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator was exceptionally suited for cultivating the way of immortality.
With ease, Lu Changsheng comprehended the second layer of the Taiqing Wuji Technique and began practicing the third layer.
With the Innate Taoist Body, understanding came naturally to Lu Changsheng, who soon grasped the third and fourth layers of the Taiqing Wuji Technique.
It was at the fifth layer that Lu Changsheng encountered resistance.
“The fourth layer of the Taiqing Wuji Technique would suffice even at the Dao Palace Realm.”
Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, his hearing and vision clearer than ever, and his Divine Sense stronger. The grass and trees of Qingyun Peak were all within the reach of Lu Changsheng’s perception.
The Innate Taoist Body, a special physique preexisting the heaven and earth, was close to the Dao itself.
With the Innate Taoist Body, coupled with the fourth layer of the Taiqing Wuji Technique, the Nine Heavens Imperial Thunder Sword, and the Myriad Swords Return to Origin Swordsmanship, Lu Changsheng was invincible within his realm and could even battle beyond his tier.
“It’s time to break through the Nascent Soul and step into the Dao Palace Realm.”
Lu Changsheng solidified his foundations and, with the transformation of Rebirth, was almost certain to break through the Nascent Soul Realm.
However, before the breakthrough, Lu Changsheng noticed his disciple, Lin Qingzhi, standing outside the cave residence like a wooden stake, apparently having waited for a long time.
“Qingzhi, you may come in now.”
“Yes.”
“How many days have you been waiting outside the cave residence?”
“Master, your disciple has been waiting for seven days and seven nights. I was afraid something might happen to you, but also worried that entering the cave residence midway would cause you to go berserk.”
“… ”
Truly the Heart of the Innocent.
This disciple, although a bit naive, has a simple and pure nature with impeccable character.
“I need to retreat for some time and won’t be able to perform the Power-Infusing Initiation for you. Continue your practice on your own, and once I leave seclusion, I will transmit my cultivation to you.”
“Yes.”
Lin Qingzhi respectfully bowed and then left the cave residence.
Lin Qingzhi, brought onto the path of cultivation by Lu Changsheng, was already on the right track. Even without Lu Changsheng’s Power-Infusing Initiation, Lin Qingzhi’s cultivation would continue to progress daily, but naturally, not as quickly as with Lu Changsheng’s initiation.
Before making his breakthrough, Lu Changsheng took out a sixth-grade elixir pill known as the Soul Nourishing Pill.
This pill exuded astonishing Spiritual Energy.
Even for the six Orthodox Sects and the four Demon Sects, a sixth-grade elixir pill was a Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.
Lu Changsheng consumed the Soul Nourishing Pill and began Refining the medicinal power within his body.
Boom!
As the medicinal power entered his body, it surged into the Sea of Consciousness, causing upheaval!
The golden Nascent Soul within the Sea of Consciousness absorbed the medicinal power, its aura grew immensely, and it visibly expanded and solidified.
Lu Changsheng, while solidifying his realm in the Nascent Soul Realm, took advantage of the Nascent Soul’s growth and with great momentum, he opened the Dao Palace!
Within the Qi Sea of the Dantian, a small world was created, as if carving out heaven and earth, a Dao Palace materialized faintly within.
In the Dao Palace Realm, one could create a small world within their body.
The spiritual energy of Qingyun Peak rushed wildly into the cave dwelling, pouring into Lu Changsheng’s body.
To establish the Dao Palace realm, an immense amount of spiritual energy is needed, and Lu Changsheng’s dantian swallowed it greedily like a whale, to the extent that the sea of clouds surrounding Qingyun Peak turned into a huge vortex, with purple aura coming from the east, manifesting an extraordinary phenomenon of heaven and earth!
Boom, rumble…
Lu Changsheng’s dantian qi sea underwent an earth-shattering transformation, with flashes of lightning and peals of thunder, and the turbulent qi sea was filled with rolling purple clouds!
The Dao Palace realm simulates the initial evolution of heaven and earth, equivalent to opening up a small world of one’s own.
Although this small world was insignificant compared to the vast universe, being less than an ant, it was nonetheless a world of his own making.
The Dao Palace realm is not on the same level as the Nascent Soul Realm.
Elders of the Dao Palace realm are the true pillars of Mount Shu, while those in the Nascent Soul Realm are only considered ordinary elders.
“Hmm?”
On the main peak of Mount Shu, the first senior brother Li Changye was meditating when he suddenly sensed a great disturbance from Qingyun Peak.
It wasn’t just Qingyun Peak; the nature’s spiritual energy from the surrounding peaks was also converging towards Qingyun Peak.
“Sword, come!”
At the thought of Li Changye, the longsword was unsheathed, and in the next moment, Li Changye had arrived near Qingyun Peak, witnessing the extraordinary phenomenon of heaven and earth there.
“Indeed, it is Junior Brother Lu breaking through to the Dao Palace realm.”
“Junior Brother Lu has cultivated for 250 years, stepping into the Dao Palace realm, that’s indeed rapid progress.”
“However, why is the disturbance caused by Junior Brother Lu’s breakthrough so immense?”
Li Changye was shocked by the disturbance Lu Changsheng caused during his breakthrough.
Normally, when a Mount Shu elder made a breakthrough, it would at most consume the nature’s spiritual energy of one peak, but Lu Changsheng’s breakthrough attracted the spiritual energy of the surrounding peaks as well.
Even Li Changye, who possessed the Eternal Wilderness Body, did not cause such a disturbance when he broke through.
What Li Changye didn’t know was that Lu Changsheng had solidified his foundation at the ninth layer of the Nascent Soul Realm, having accumulated a wealth of cultivation that burst forth upon breaking through, and with his Innate Taoist Body, the breakthrough inevitably caused an extraordinary phenomenon.
As long as he successfully broke through the Nascent Soul Realm, Lu Changsheng would be much stronger than other cultivators of the Dao Palace realm at the same level.
“If Junior Brother Lu successfully enters the Dao Palace realm, our Mount Shu will have another Dao Palace realm powerhouse, which is excellent news.”
“Order someone to seal off the area around Qingyun Peak, not letting anyone disturb Junior Brother Lu.”
“I will protect him personally.”
Li Changye, with Mount Shu in his heart, felt not the slightest bit of jealousy towards Lu Changsheng, who caused the extraordinary event, but instead felt reassured.
With one more Dao Palace realm elder, Mount Shu’s strength was further enhanced.
Moreover, given the disturbance Lu Changsheng caused during his breakthrough, his future cultivation level might be beyond just the Dao Palace realm.
Li Changye, at the ninth layer of the Dao Palace realm, personally took on the role of protector. Unless the Sect Masters of the Demon Sects or some old monsters attacked, no one could disrupt Lu Changsheng’s breakthrough.
It was unlikely that the Sect Masters of the four major Demon Sects would dare to attack Qingyun Peak.
This was Mount Shu after all.
Lu Changsheng did not notice Li Changye sealing off the mountainside as a protector, as he was fully focused on establishing his Dao Palace.
Time flew by quickly, and before he realized it, ten days had passed.
“The Dao Palace is formed!”
Lu Changsheng established his Dao Palace within his dantian; after the tumultuous creation, the Dao Palace finally settled.
Not only did he establish the Dao Palace, but his dantian and qi sea had both expanded by twofold.
Lu Changsheng’s cultivation level rose to the first layer of the Dao Palace realm, and he was close to reaching the second layer.
“Big Senior Brother?”
Lu Changsheng sensed that his senior brother Li Changye was currently meditating on the Flying Sword, secretly providing protection for ten days and nights, and couldn’t help but feel moved.
His senior brother’s character was beyond reproach.
“Congratulations to Junior Brother Lu for stepping into the Dao Palace realm. Your current level of cultivation is now beyond even my clarity,” said Li Changye as he emerged after being discovered by Lu Changsheng. He looked again towards Lu Changsheng, who stood still like a chaotic expanse, making his level of cultivation difficult to perceive.
