Talent That Astonished the Immortal Path

The Immortal Land a place where every ten steps reveal a new scene. Fire Spring waterfalls cascade down the beautiful mountain peaks, silver bamboo grows in abundance along the roadside, and Moon Insect hang high in the night sky like stars. It has all kinds of scenic spots and landscapes.

"That's just a fragment of a scripture," the old Master Zhou Rui of the Immortal Land reminded him with a smile.

Qin Ming said, "I have long heard of its name, and many predecessors have mentioned it. I regret that I have not been able to read it all. I am also very curious, so I would like to Truth Seeking text to read."

In truth, who could not understand his thoughts?

Now, many people have speculated that he has practiced Silk Book Method and seems to have successfully embarked on the path.

Back then, many old monsters on New Life Path wanted to borrow the "Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture," but in the end, each sect's Ancestral Court only managed to copy a portion of it.

"Alright, you want to see the original. I'll have someone prepare it." Master Zhou Rui nodded, not making things difficult for him, as everything had been discussed beforehand.

The temple where they drank tea was built on a high ground, overlooking the surrounding scenery. The view was picturesque and refreshing.

Many young faces appeared near the palace, all with unusual expressions. Many of them had come specifically to see this rather legendary young man.

"He wants to read the * Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture *. Is there any sutra more difficult to practice than that?"

In the Beyond the Mundane, some of the top Immortal Seed have applied to borrow this book, and after reading it, they all turned pale and their brows furrowed.

Even though many Grandmaster and Ancestor on the Immortal Path have studied this text carefully and have made their own conclusions, which can be used as a reference, young people should not expect to fully understand it.

"Perhaps the <Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture> is truly the most suitable for the New Life Path. Otherwise, would they have such a strong obsession with obtaining it?"

"Not necessarily. In our Immortal Land, we have trained several individuals who cultivate both paths simultaneously, and many exceptional Otherworlder have studied this scripture, but none of them have achieved anything significant."

Qin Ming sipped tea in the warm, spring-like Blessed Land, listening to the melodious chirping of the Spirit Sparrow in the precious tree, and seeing the snow falling heavily outside, which evoked a unique feeling in him.

The difference in climate among people living in the same Mortal World is astonishing.

At the same time last year, he was struggling to make ends meet and nearly died of illness in that cold winter. Today, he is a guest of honor in this Blessed Land of immortals.

"Yao'er, what are you daydreaming about? Pour some tea!" Jiang Ran said.

The White-Clad Girl Luo Yao, was in a daze, feeling that fate was truly unpredictable. She witnessed the boy sitting there rise from the bottom and undergo a qualitative leap in his life trajectory.

Qin Ming put down his teacup and said, "Good tea. I accidentally drank too much, as if it were fine wine."

Zhou Rui smiled and said, "This is a specialty of the Immortal Land. Since you find the taste quite good, young friend, you can take a few pounds with you when you leave."

Outside the palace, some Core Disciple were astonished. That was the "Silver Sprout" tea, which was very famous in the Immortal Land and could help people calm their minds and comprehend the Dao. It was extremely precious, even though their annual quota was limited to no more than three catties.

Jiang Ran, who also enjoys drinking tea, said, "The best taste comes from pairing the Silver Sprout from the Immortal Land with the 'Golden Haze ' tea from the Pure Land. The aroma is lingering and the aftertaste is unforgettable."

She also demonstrated the tea ceremony on the spot, with boiling water leaping up and transforming into a phoenix rising in white mist, washing the tea set in mid-air. Then, she gently raised her hand, her movements flowing smoothly and beautifully.

At this moment, immortal Immortal Seed entered the palace one after another, specifically to accompany Qin Ming and drink tea.

"It is said that Brother Qin is advancing on two paths simultaneously and is also proficient in the Immortal Path Techniques. Is that true?" One of the Immortal Seed couldn't help but ask in front of everyone.

Immortal Method Qin Ming said, "I have some knowledge of immortal techniques, but I can't claim to be an expert. Compared to you all, I am truly inferior."

Zhou Rui said, "You're too modest. Now that you mention it, I'm quite interested and would like to test your talent for the Immortal Path to immortality."

Clearly, that Immortal Seed was merely a prelude for him. This old Master originally came with a mission: to see Qin Ming's true background and abilities.

"How do we test it?" Qin Ming asked.

Zhou Rui put down his teacup and smiled, "Don't overthink it. I didn't mean to pry into your thoughts. Just stand in the ' Heguang Hall ' and freely release your Consciousness Spirit Light."

Then, they moved to a gray, drab palace not far away.

In fact, Master like him could directly examine Qin Ming's aptitude and other qualities by simply reaching out or probing his Mental Field. However, to avoid causing misunderstandings among Lu Zizai and others in the New Life Path, he did not act rashly.

Instantly, the place was packed with people, even the descendants of the Immortal Seed and the pioneers were eagerly anticipating it.

Even Jiang Ran became interested and personally accompanied Qin Ming into the hall, making him stand in the designated area.

The ground has many textures and is engraved with dense runes. Strange symbols also appear on the thick stone pillars and even the walls throughout the hall.

"That's fine," Jiang Ran indicated.

Qin Ming thought for a moment, then his Heavenly Light subsided, his Mental Field expanded, and his Consciousness Spirit Light overflowed out of his body, like a raging fire leaping and burning.

"Hiss, this is Consciousness Power that is almost Pure Yang attribute?" Some Core Disciple were greatly shocked, many of whom had not reached this level.

"Let's try another burst," Jiang Ran said.

Then, Qin Ming burst forth like a giant fireball, his Consciousness Spirit Light surging, actually mixed with the Heavenly Light. He didn't care, and just erupted like that.

Anyway, everyone knows that he's pursuing two paths simultaneously.

The originally drab palace instantly brightened up, with golden lines moving across the ground, the massive pillars, and the walls.

Then, with a loud boom, the palace burst into dazzling light, multicolored and radiant, its celestial brilliance soaring into the night sky.

Without a doubt, the "Heguang Hall" exists to test one's aptitude for the Immortal Path, amplifying and clearly External Manifestation Consciousness Spirit Light.

"What's going on? Has our Immortal Path recruited another peerless genius?"

In the distance, many people were lost in thought.

The commotion in the "Heguang Hall" caused many people throughout the Immortal Land to look up.

"It's not time to recruit apprentices yet this year, so was this a super-talented seedling brought back ahead of schedule after it was discovered?"

"Is this level of talent comparable to Jiang Ran's?"

On the various Spirit Mountain of the Immortal Land, many experts were alarmed. They pushed open their doors, stood on the peaks, and looked out in astonishment.

Some renowned figures even had their Consciousness Spirit Light leave their bodies, transforming into streaks of light that swiftly broke through the air to arrive, hoping to take a super Immortal Seed as their disciple.

Everyone in the Heguang Hall was dumbfounded.

Those who came earlier naturally understood the situation. Was Qin Ming, on the New Life Path, really this exceptionally talented as he was on the Immortal Path?

Master Zhou Rui was extremely excited and said, "This is truly a peerless immortal Immortal Seed; her potential is no less than Xiao Ran's."

His comments shocked everyone even more. It was now certain that Qin Ming's aptitude on the Immortal Path was perhaps more suited to the New Life Path.

"Possessing two traits in one, one can truly be called exceptionally gifted."

"He truly is blessed by heaven. Not only was he given one top-tier talent, but another path was paved for him. Such a rare Mortal World exceptional."

A gasp of surprise rang out Heguang Hall.

Even though they were descendants of the Pathfinders, they couldn't quite understand what they were feeling, because the other party had displayed the most outstanding Immortal Seed talent.

Master Zhou Rui was quite agitated, and then, with a hint of indignation, said, "The Cui Household family, Millennium Aristocratic Family clan, isn't this just making a fool of themselves? They've ruined a promising talent!"

Some of the more established celebrities who arrived were stunned when they learned what had happened. It turned out the commotion was caused by people from New Life Path?

"In the past there were Master of two paths, and in the future there will most likely be Ancestor of two paths!" an old man said in a low voice.

Without a doubt, the commotion caused by Qin Ming has truly stirred up the Immortal Land.

Grandmaster have all left this place, and almost all of them are injured and in seclusion; otherwise, powerful figures would probably have come in person.

Only Qin Ming himself understood that it wasn't as mysterious as it seemed; the mingled Heavenly Light he had created was also playing a part, making the gray palace shine brilliantly.

Of course, he believed that his talent for the Immortal Path immortality was indeed extraordinary.

If every Consciousness Spirit Light hadn't been swallowed by the Heavenly Light, it might have truly created a genuine spectacle.

Once Consciousness Spirit Light is swallowed up, it naturally cannot grow like a snowball; instead, it needs to be accumulated from scratch.

Clearly, he was already bound to the New Life Path.

However, from the current perspective, this result is not bad, because the power he fused together can actually be used as a source of Consciousness Spirit Light.

Several more Master from the Immortal Land have arrived. They live not far from here, and even though they were all seriously injured in the Western Territory War, they have now been alerted.

These people had complex expressions. While it's possible to encounter someone with the Immortal Seed immortality, finding someone as outstanding as Jiang Ran is extremely rare.

There's one right in front of me, but he's been labeled New Life Path for a long time.

"It doesn't matter. In the end, he will still need to use Immortal Method. Wasn't Li Wuwei the same?" an old Master said in secret.

Li Wuwei was Tang Jin's master, a former Master and now Ancestor. He also possessed two kinds of spiritual power, but in the end, his New Life Path could not keep up with the progress of the Immortal Path.

Qin Ming saw many fervent gazes in the Immortal Land, and many people were even more enthusiastic than before.

"Young friend, have you ever thought about coming to my Immortal Land to cultivate in seclusion for a while?" an old Master was injured asked.

He put it very euphemistically, but what he really wanted was to poach someone and get them to join the Immortal Land.

Qin Ming knew his own situation. The main substance accumulated within him was Heavenly Light. If an Immortal Path Ancestor emerged from seclusion, a little investigation would reveal the truth immediately, and he couldn't hide it from anyone.

Even these Master, if they were to be careless and examine his bones or invade his consciousness to investigate carefully, could discover the truth.

Therefore, he did not want to stay here for long.

Qin Ming was very modest and expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thank you all for your kindness and appreciation. I am lazy by nature and used to being wild outside. If I were to enter the Immortal Land, I would probably make mistakes and break all sorts of rules, so I won't bother you any longer. However, I can communicate with you Immortal Seed beings from time to time in the future, and I am very willing to listen to your guidance."

The senior Master nodded helplessly; they had already politely declined, so what else could they do? They all felt quite regretful.

Of course, not everyone was well-intentioned; for example, some of the renowned figures were members of the Cui Household who watched coldly from the sidelines.

In this Beyond the Mundane, various powerful forces are deeply entrenched, and many Aristocratic Clan and clans actively send their qualified disciples here every year.

Having gained the appreciation of several veteran Master, Qin Ming's subsequent journey naturally went much more smoothly.

The original text of the "Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture" has already been prepared by the Immortal Land.

Moreover, Jiang Ran accompanied Qin Ming and led him to an extraordinary and important place.

Even from a distance, Qin Ming showed surprise. The Immortal Light in that area was like a shower of stars, surrounded by white mist, and faintly, one could hear the sound of chanting.

It was an old tree, rooted in Five-Colored Soil. Its leaves swayed in the breeze, the sound of them colliding like turning the pages of a scripture, and showers of light fell down.

It is very large and thick, with cracked old skin, and exudes a strong Daoist aura. There are some futons on the ground, and occasionally the Ancestor come here to meditate.

However, after the Western Territory War, they all went to recuperate from their injuries.

"This is the Bodhi Immortal Tree, which has been planted for over 2,900 years," Jiang Ran explained.

Without a doubt, this is one of the most valuable treasure trees in the Immortal Land.

Among the lush leaves, some glistening "fruits" can be seen. Among them, the snow-white Bodhi Seed with "five orifices" are considered rare treasures, ensuring that one can remain undisturbed and immersed in a state of clarity.

On its branches grows the Seven Aperture Bodhi Seed, which is rare to produce even once every three hundred years. It is about to mature, surrounded by Black and White Light, and can bring enlightenment.

Near the main trunk, there is a special, tender branch bearing a Bodhi Seed the size of an egg. It is ordinary and lacks luster, but it has nine orifices.

This sacred tree, nearly three thousand years old, has only just produced a semi-mature Nine Aperture Bodhi Seed.

The exact value of the highest-grade Bodhi Seed remains unclear, even the Ancestor of the Immortal Land are waiting to find out.

Qin Ming was given special permission to view the "Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture" near the Bodhi Immortal Tree, which shows that the Immortal Land was quite sincere.

He said, "Thank you!"

Upon hearing this, the Immortal Patterns between Jiang Ran's brows appeared, emitting a soft glow. A smile appeared on her exquisite face as she said, "Actually, I'm very much looking forward to seeing how fast you can go on the New Life Path and what heights you can reach."

Dressed in a green robe, with a graceful and elegant figure, she drifted away. She was the most ethereal disciple in the Immortal Land, and it seemed she had seen through Qin Ming's true nature.

However, she didn't Say More to those veterans.

Qin Ming watched her retreating figure, took a deep breath, then sat cross-legged on a futon and began to peruse a dark, animal-skin book, which was clearly an antique.

"Could it be made from Immortal Skin?" he pondered. Ancient True Scripture were usually made using the finest materials to prevent damage.

He was immediately captivated when he opened it; it was filled with densely packed small gold characters and illustrations, and the opening itself was already very profound.

As Qin Ming immersed himself in the task, he looked at the golden characters on the black page and felt a burning sensation, as if they were tiny Solar Yang illuminating the night sky.

Is this scripture named after that?

Qin Ming sat on the futon, no longer distracted, and began to study page after page with exceptional focus. Soon, he felt the Daoist charm of the Bodhi Tree, and the hazy light shone down, making him even more clear-headed and calm.

However, this boost to him wasn't very noticeable, because once he immersed himself in his own Enlightenment Realm, he was already capable of achieving this.

Right now, he is still some distance from the mother tree.

Even if Jiang Ran wanted to rely on the Bodhi Immortal Tree, she would still need to apply. The higher-ups were worried that if someone in a state of enlightenment Exerted Effort, it might damage the Nine Aperture Bodhi Seed on the tree.

As Qin Ming focused his mind, he resonated with the emotional fluctuations of the sages of the past.

He quickly broke free; he didn't want to experience that excruciating pain, like his brains were about to be ripped out, right from the start.

He doesn't need to draw on the insights of his predecessors for parts that are already documented in writing; this is Qin Ming's confidence.

So far, only one scripture has stumped him; the others are no problem as long as his level of understanding is sufficient.

"Hmm, no wonder the Ancestor of the New Life Path was so concerned; this scripture is indeed extraordinary!" Qin Ming exclaimed after reading it.

Those who study it on the Immortal Path can make their Consciousness Spirit Light more intense, leading to the sublimation of Pure Yang Transformation.

For New Life Path, nature holds even greater significance. The Heavenly Light is as intense as the Scorching Sun, which is what many people aspire to, and the "Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture" can amplify this change.

It can make the Heavenly Light even more dazzling, reaching an extreme intensity that transforms its appearance.

Ultimately, if you truly master it, whether you possess Pure Yang Spirit Light or Tathagata Heavenly Light, it will become even more domineering. Who wouldn't crave that?

However, it is really difficult to practice. When it circulates in the body, it burns the flesh and blood, opening up new paths, much like pioneering in the dark, which is quite difficult.

Even worse, there are dangers along the way; wild beasts may emerge from the darkness and attack the Pioneers.

This is manifested in the text as follows: certain parts of the body, such as acupoints, or more precisely, the Human Body Immortal Lake and Mental Secret Sea, suddenly unleash unknown forces that impact consciousness, injure the physical body, and even cause the Heavenly Light to abruptly change course, thus harming oneself.

"Wonderful! What a wonderful scripture! It opens up many unknown areas and is worth exploring!"

In comparison, Qin Ming, having mastered the Flesh Body Chapter left by the Ancestor of the Silk Book Method, could withstand much hardship. His consciousness merged with the Heavenly Light, and he was not particularly afraid of harming himself.

This classic text was profound and unfathomable. As he delved deeper into its meaning, its interpretations gradually surpassed his own level of understanding, becoming somewhat difficult to comprehend. He could only memorize it.

He flipped to the very end, to the very last page of the book, which wasn't very thick, and it ended abruptly, clearly missing much of the scriptures.

It can also be seen from the last page of the text that a portion has been torn out; Qin Ming estimated that perhaps more than half is missing.

Then, he began to take deep breaths, adjusting his state, looking as if he were about to bravely face death, making it impossible not to resonate with him.

He wants to complete the "Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture"!

A moment later, Qin Ming's Mental Field became unified and he began to comprehend it. Sure enough, as soon as he started, it felt like his head had been hit by an iron rod, his ears were ringing and his vision went black.

He had no choice but to quit, wait a while, and then continue.

Half an hour later, blood trickled from the corner of Qin Ming's mouth, and his eyes were bloodshot; he had been severely shaken.

He sighed, "It's just trying to understand a scripture, and it's made me feel like I'm dying." He then took a jar of healing medicine.

On the Western Territory Battlefield, what he gained most were life-saving medicines, and he wasn't afraid of wasting them.

And so, Qin Ming took the medicine while resonating with the scriptures, like cutting his intestines, slowly and carefully resonating with the subsequent texts.

It must be said that the emotions of the Daoist master of the Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture were truly terrifying, making him feel both ecstatic and on the verge of death. When he ascended to the blissful state of immortality, he clearly saw the scripture approaching its completeness. When he was on the verge of death, he felt as if he had fallen into Hell, as if his spirit was being devoured by countless vengeful ghosts.

He finally finished completing the scripture and breathed a sigh of relief; he really didn't want to go through that experience again.

But in recent days, he has been destined to travel back and forth between paradise and Hell, repeating this process of joy and pain.

Qin Ming opened his eyes, panting heavily. It took him a long time to fully recover. He noticed an exquisite food box not far away, filled with highly nourishing ingredients, belonging to the category of immortal medicinal cuisine.

He didn't stand on ceremony and quickly swept everything away.

"How do you feel?" Jiang Ran appeared, knowing that he had finished his meditation.

"Not bad!" Qin Ming nodded truthfully. He had gained a lot this time. The <Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture> was very suitable for the New Life Path. When he practiced it to the end, the Heavenly Light in his body would undergo a further transformation. When he raised his hand to strike, it would be like Golden Crow streaking across the night sky.

"Shall we have a little sparring? I gained this understanding from the realm of Consciousness Spirit Light." Jiang Ran smiled brightly.

"Okay!" Qin Ming readily agreed.

He realized from her words that Jiang Ran knew he was majoring in Heavenly Light and following the New Life Path; none of the Master were as perceptive as she was.

When news broke that two top seeds were going to have a match, the younger generation was in an uproar and all rushed over to watch, and even some senior figures came out of seclusion.

However, both of them shook their heads, indicating that this was a private conversation and they did not want to attract attention.

Within a Giant Palace, only Luo Yao was fortunate enough to witness the two's argument, gestures, and exchanges, which were not a contest in the ordinary sense.

This closed-door sparring session greatly surprised Jiang Ran. She thought that among all the young scholars in the Immortal Land, only she had a thorough understanding of the <Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture>, but she never expected that Qin Ming's insights were unique and that he had completely comprehended the chapter corresponding to his realm.

This exchange was very beneficial to her.

In fact, Qin Ming was also greatly inspired by her, and his understanding of this scripture became more profound.

Luo Yao discovered that she was "unemployed." This time, she wasn't even asked to serve tea; Jiang Ran personally brewed the tea, and the two chatted happily.

Jiang Ran saw Qin Ming off for a long distance from the mountain gate until he left the Immortal Land.

Luo Yao knew that Qin Ming had caught Jiang Ran's eye and was highly regarded by her; otherwise, he would never have received such treatment.

For his second stop, Qin Ming went to the Undying Hall.

This is a very important sect of the Esoteric Sect, located in a continuous mountain range where the peaks soar into the clouds, and its main temple sits above the dark clouds.

The trip went smoothly, and Qin Ming was not given any difficulties. He was able to borrow the "Body Refining and Dao Integration Scripture".

He was shocked to discover that this True Scripture was quite similar to the Flesh Body Chapter transmitted to him by the Ancestor of the Silk Book Method. As he turned the pages, he realized that they indeed shared the same origin.

However, the Flesh Body Chapter only comprises half of this sutra; this is the true text.

Qin Ming understood. The Ancestor studied Silk Book Method had a very ambitious spirit. They drew on the strengths of many schools of thought and even applied them to the Esoteric Sect.

"This text is one of the few scriptures in our Esoteric Sect that is rarely read and is kept on a high shelf," sighed the old Master of the Undying Hall.

Is this scripture not powerful enough? No, it's just too difficult to practice. Its ultimate path is completely different from the Seeing God and Ritual Offering of other sects.

This book tells of Body Slaying Divine Spirits.

The old Master spoke frankly, saying that these were unearthed scriptures, not part of the Esoteric Sect Buddhist system, and perhaps they were indeed suitable for a domineering New Life Path.

Historically, many people in the Esoteric Sect have studied this scripture. No one has been found to have physically severed a god, but one has been found to have achieved godhood in the physical body.

The old Master said, "This scripture is missing the last few pages and has some minor flaws."

Qin Ming nodded and said, "Thank you for informing me, senior. It's nothing; I was just using it as a reference."

In fact, he was quite excited deep down. He had always attached great importance to the Flesh Body Chapter, and he never expected to find the "complete version" here!

No wonder Lu Zizai mentioned this passage to him; he clearly knew that the Ancestor had studied this scripture, but only obtained half of the True Scripture.

"If the Ancestor had obtained more chapters of the <Body Refining and Dao Integration Scripture>, the problem of the physical body exploding might not have been so serious."

Qin Ming was tormented by his mental state, experiencing both ecstasy and despair, until finally he completely relaxed and left satisfied.

During this period, the old Master of the Esoteric Sect almost tested him to see if he had boundless Divine Wisdom, because he always felt that he seemed to be suited to the Secret Sect Path and might be a God Seed.

But Qin Ming was too engrossed in studying the scriptures, so he didn't want to disturb him.

On that day, Lu Zizai appeared and accompanied Qin Ming to the third stop— the Beyond the Mundane Pure Land.

This place is quite special; Cao Qianqiu and Sun Taichu are from here.

Although Lao Cao was crippled, Lu Zizai accompanied him as a precaution.

Meanwhile, the Beyond the Mundane Pure Land is also the headquarters of the Imperial Immortal Sect, Helian Family is also located here.

In addition, many of Qin Ming's old friends are here, such as Li Qingyue, Li Qingxu, Cui Chonghe, Wang Caiwei Zheng Maoze, Chen Bingyan and others.

In addition, there are Tang Xumi, Pei Shuyan, Helian Yaoqing, and many other Immortal Seed in the Pure Land.

"Here you go, this is the Intercepting Heaven Blade Technique." Lu Zizai handed over a Sword Manual.

"Senior Brother Lu, I also have an important scripture to give you!"

Soon after, Lu Zizai was shocked to discover that the complete version of the "Golden Crow Illuminates Night Scripture" actually existed!

On that day, the two ascended to the Pure Land and saw many people coming out to greet them.
