Lin Ye Attained the Dao!
The Rogue Person named 'Huang Gu' was not bound by any restrictions.
However, he was carefree and preferred to stay in the Southern Florescence Realm. When Lu Qingfeng chatted with the other immortals about the Earth Immortal Realm, Loose Immortal Huang Gu only listened with amusement, showing no Heart Movement whatsoever.
Lu Qingfeng had originally planned to recruit this Rogue Person into the God-Seizing General's Manor after learning more about him.
Seeing this, he gave up the idea.
The immortals conversed.
Lu Qingfeng also took the opportunity to inquire about the situation in the Bleak-Cold Ravine.
Upper Origin Palace is closest to the Bleak-Cold Ravine and the Earth-Splitting Immortal Sect Ravine. The Bleak-Cold Ravine is also closely related to the Earth-Splitting Immortal Sect's founder, Grand Marshal Yang Sen. So the immortals fell silent, and Pan Ji said, "Although the Bleak-Cold Ravine was formed because of the founder, the founder resides in the Lingxiao Palace. My Spring-Autumn Mountain's understanding of the Bleak-Cold Ravine is no more than that of you fellow Daoists."
Lu Qingfeng listened and nodded slightly, showing no disappointment.
This is also the correct reasoning.
Considering the stature of the Four Sages Grand Marshals, even ordinary Celestial Immortal would hardly catch his eye. The Bleak-Cold Ravine, which he casually created in the Four Sages Immortal Domain Realm, would be a first-rate wonderland in the mortal world, but Grand Marshal Yang Sen probably forgot about it long ago.
His disciples and followers dared not bother him with such a trivial matter.
Otherwise.
This Bleak-Cold Ravine will be under the control of the Earth-Splitting Immortal Sect, and will not become a place of filth and corruption.
"But don't worry, fellow Daoist."
"There are at least three Earth Immortal in the Bleak-Cold Ravine. But the formation set up by the Ancestral Master can even trap the High Antiquity and ferocious 'Suanni Beast,' so trapping a few Earth Immortal is naturally not a difficult task."
Pan Ji explained that Lu Qingfeng was worried that several Earth Immortal might rush out of the Bleak-Cold Ravine and cause trouble during his disciple's breakthrough.
"At least three Earth Immortal?"
Lu Qingfeng wasn't worried about that, but upon hearing Pan Ji's words, a thought struck him. "Brother Pan, do you know the details about the Earth Immortal?"
Even though he was Earth Immortal, Lu Qingfeng dared not underestimate him.
The more information you have, the safer you will be when you enter the Bleak-Cold Ravine. There's no need to be blindly arrogant.
"Brother Dao, you've really hit the nail on the head."
Pan Ji laughed loudly upon hearing this, "There are three known Earth Immortal in this Bleak-Cold Ravine. Two of them were once active in the Four Sages Immortal Domain. I even had a battle with one of them."
"I wonder what methods they employ?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingfeng's expression immediately changed, and he quickly pressed for details.
After a while.
I finally figured it out.
Turn out to be.
Over the years, a Bleak-Cold Ravine, who has actually cultivated himself into Longevity Earth Immortal in this barren land.
According to a cultivator who miraculously emerged from the Bleak-Cold Ravine 130,000 years ago, this Earth Immortal was known as the "Origin-Returning Immortal Venerable" and was one of the "Three Venerables" of the Bleak-Cold Ravine.
As for cultivation level Divine Ability, due to the limitations of that cultivator's cultivation, they were unable to access them and were therefore completely unaware of them.
The other two Earth Immortal were already at the level of Earth Immortal Dao before entering the Bleak-Cold Ravine.
One of them was a righteous figure, the number one Rogue Person in the Four Sages Immortal Domain before Loose Immortal Huang Gu, known as 'Nine-Heavens Loose Immortal'. He had already entered the Bleak-Cold Ravine long before Loose Immortal Huang Gu became Earth Immortal.
It has been more than a million years since then.
Although Nine-Heavens Loose Immortal's cultivation level was average, his treasures were formidable, with the 'Nine-Heavens Cold-Soul Pearl' in his hand possessing astonishing power. Upon arriving at the Bleak-Cold Ravine, although he failed to emerge, he became one of the Three Venerables of Bleak-Cold Ravine, known as the 'Nine-Heavens Immortal Venerable'.
The last one is the one that Pan Ji had previously faced.
It is the body of a great demon.
Legend has it that a 'Blazing-Fire Caterpillar' that cultivated for millions of years attained enlightenment, becoming ruthless and vicious. Attainment of the Dao refined tens of thousands of its offspring into a treasure that specifically targets the seven orifices of a person, making it exceptionally malevolent.
He calls himself the 'Venerable Blazing Fire'.
This man, who once stirred up a bloody storm in the Four Sages Immortal Domain, was besieged by four Earth Immortal, including Pan Ji. In the end, with nowhere to escape, he fled into the Bleak-Cold Ravine and never came out again.
Hundreds of thousands of years have passed.
He also caused quite a stir in the Bleak-Cold Ravine, calling himself the "Blazing-Fire Demon Emperor," and was known as one of the Three Venerables along with Nine-Heavens Loose Immortal and Origin-Returning Adept.
"Origin-Returning Adept".
"Nine-Heavens Loose Immortal".
"The Venerable Blazing Fire".
After listening, Lu Qingfeng immediately understood.
Of these three Earth Immortal, the one who Attainment of the Dao Venerable Blazing Fire through the Blazing-Fire Caterpillar is undoubtedly the oldest. However, the one who Attainment of the Dao enlightenment earliest is the Nine-Heavens Loose Immortal. Although both the Nine-Heavens Loose Immortal and the Venerable Blazing Fire entered the Bleak-Cold Ravine at the Dust-Cleansing Realm, the former Attainment of the Dao enlightenment hundreds of thousands of years earlier. Even if his cultivation has stagnated, he should not be underestimated.
As for Origin-Returning Adept...
To be able to cultivate to the Earth Immortal Dao Fruit in a place like the Bleak-Cold Ravine, one must have some skill. Although one has only been Earth Immortal for less than 400,000 years, being able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Nine-Heavens Loose Immortal and the Blazing Venerable Blazing Fire, one is clearly not a pushover.
Seeing that Lu Qingfeng was interested in the Bleak-Cold Ravine, the immortals chatted for a while longer, and made comments about the so-called "Three Venerables of Bleak-Cold Ravine," with laughter and joy filling the air.
Lin Ye's breakthrough did not lead to the man-made disaster he had anticipated; instead, the atmosphere was peaceful and harmonious.
Calm and still.
It's already coming to an end.
The ninth day of Lin Ye's seclusion.
Lu Qingfeng, Pan Ji, Zhong Qiu, and the other immortals were still discussing the Dao and sharing their various experiences when they saw auspicious clouds gathering in the sky above where Lin Ye was in seclusion. Colorful clouds filled the sky, and celestial music played. Celestial children scattered flowers, celestial maidens danced, and celestial officials and generals came to offer their congratulations.
It was quite a lively scene.
Mysteries also arise underground.
Golden Lotus sprang from the earth, and all the flowers, plants, and trees were blessed by nature, awakened to their wisdom, and were no longer ignorant.
Upon witnessing this extraordinary phenomenon and sensing the disturbance in the energy of heaven and earth, Zhong Qiu and the others all understood—
"It's done!"
From then on.
Another Changsheng being has been added to this world, having attained the Earth Immortal Dao Fruit immortal.
"It's finally done!"
Lu Qingfeng was overjoyed.
Looking towards the cave abode in the mountains, one could see a petite woman gracefully walking out of the cave abode, her every move exuding Spiritual Qi.
The heavens were filled with divine blessings upon her, and all Spirit Birth things worshipped her.
Like a woman who had stepped out of a fairyland, she arrived gracefully with a smile on her face and landed in front of Lu Qingfeng.
He bent his knees and knelt down, shouting, "Disciple Lin Ye greets Master!"
Nine days apart.
When the master and disciple reunited, it felt like a lifetime had passed, and Lin Ye had finally become Earth Immortal!
"Okay, okay!"
"Get up quickly."
Lu Qingfeng repeatedly praised him, truly overjoyed. He asked Lin Ye to stand up, and then introduced him to Zhong Qiu, Pan Ji, and the others, saying, "This is my disciple, named Lin Ye."
Then Lin Ye Zhong Qiu and others.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Lin."
"Congratulations, Fellow Pure Qingjing."
All the immortals offered their congratulations.
Although Lin Ye was Lu Qingfeng's Earth Immortal, all the other immortals treated him with respect, addressing him as a fellow Daoist. After the congratulations, Zhong Qiu and the others came to invite Lu and his disciple Lin to visit their mountain gate.
Lu Qingfeng had other important matters to attend to, so he made an excuse to decline.
The immortals then withdrew.
"Good."
"Good."
The master and disciple were alone. The two entered the cave abode. Lu Qingfeng looked Lin Ye over and saw that the latter had a rosy complexion and a full Heavenly Court, looking like an immortal. He couldn't help but praise him repeatedly.
They endured hardships.
From this day forward, Lin Ye is freed from suffering and is no longer an ordinary person.
"Thanks to the profound and wondrous teachings of Master, and his generous use of treasures, Ye'er was able to attain enlightenment this time." Lin Ye's tone was extremely sincere, filled with deep gratitude and admiration.
She knew.
Without her teacher's Miaofa to help her organize and thoroughly elevate all her insights and accumulated knowledge over the years, she would never have been able to attain enlightenment on her own.
Not to mention.
During the spellcasting, Lin Ye clearly felt that her mind and soul were exhausted dozens of times, and she relied on her teacher to help her recover time and time again with precious treasures.
It cost an unknown amount of treasures.
Rather than saying that she became an Earth Immortal on her own, it would be more accurate to say that her teacher guided and pushed her step by step, sending her into the realm of immortals.
Lin Ye didn't know how other Earth Immortal attained enlightenment.
But she—
"That was so easy!"
"This is too difficult!"
Lin Ye thought about his experiences over the years, about his near-fatal failure in his attempt to become an Earth Immortal in Seven Treasures Mountain, and about the anxiety and joy he felt during his second attempt to become Earth Immortal nine days ago, and the dazed joy he felt after attaining enlightenment.
The stark contrast made her even more grateful.
"Where did these sentiments come from?"
Lu Qingfeng was pleased, but said impatiently, "Hurry up and consolidate your cultivation. Enter the Bleak-Cold Ravine in a month."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ye snapped out of her elation at becoming Earth Immortal and remembered that her elder brother was still suffering in the Bleak-Cold Ravine, waiting for her to rescue him.
He immediately focused his mind and replied seriously, "Yes, teacher."
One month later.
The two stepped into the Bleak-Cold Ravine.
Ugh~
Waaah~
Within the Bleak-Cold Ravine lie 108 smaller Grotto-Heaven, each with its own sun, moon, and stars hanging high above. However, from outside the grottoes, due to the backdraft of the cold wind, a howling and wailing sound often emanates, chilling those who hear it. Furthermore, because the 'Suanni Beast' once dwelled here, smoke and fire are hidden in various places, sometimes spreading out, creating a series of mysterious and perilous places within the Bleak-Cold Ravine.
Where smoke and fire filled the air, even ordinary True Immortal dared not venture in rashly.
This day.
In a thick, smoky haze, where visibility was near zero, a wary young man with triangular eyes and a hooked nose moved with lightning speed. A flame flickered within his chest, shifting left and right. Guided by this, the young man constantly changed his course.
About two or three hours later.
"Found it!"
The young man's expression changed drastically when he saw a ball of cyan flame rising and falling about seven or eight feet away. He quickly took a few steps forward, spread out the flame in his heart and transformed it into a ribbon, which swept towards the cyan flame.
Suddenly at this moment.
Bang!
The young man suddenly stopped, then stomped his foot hard and shot into the sky. Just as he leaped up, a Sword Qi suddenly exploded from beneath the earth. Relentlessly, it rushed straight towards the young man.
"Vulture!"
It's you again!
Enraged, the young man roared and summoned back the streak of flames to protect himself from the Sword Qi. At the same time, he threw four black beads he had prepared beforehand into the four directions of the blue flames.
"Black Baleful Bead?"
Amidst the smoke and dust, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Snort!"
"We've been waiting for a long time!"
The gloomy young man heard the voice was elusive and didn't know where the person was, but he snorted coldly and said to the four directions, "I ask my four brothers to make a move!"
The sound faded.
"Fellow Daoist, do not panic."
A chilling, eerie laugh echoed in all directions, sending shivers down one's spine. Immediately, four figures landed in the four directions. Upon closer inspection, all four figures were over twelve feet tall, with faces as dark as the bottom of a pot and fangs, exuding a fierce aura.
The four people determined their positions.
The energy converged and surged forth, and suddenly a wisp of smoke and dust appeared in the east, as if a figure was about to escape.
