Three Immortalities, the Pinnacle of Transcendence (Double-Length Chapter)
It is three thousand li north of Heaven's Gate Pass.
Here flows the Red Water River, its water a dark red, with many red stones at the bottom, where water Demons dwell.
There is a mountain by the lake, and at the foot of the mountain is a thatched Thatched Hut. In this desolate wilderness, there is an old man who often sits here. He is a Demon of the Three Immortalities Realms who calls himself the Red God.
The Red God commands Demons from thousands of miles away. This Red Water River is its Ancestral Land. Originally, there was a Crimson Blood Python in the river that swallowed the sun and moon for Three Hundred Years, cultivating into a dragon. Afterward, it hunted and foraged everywhere, eventually reaching the current Three Immortalities Realms.
At this moment, the Red God in front of the Thatched Hut was kneeling on the ground, trembling.
Three figures sat resting by the Thatched Hut, radiating immense pressure. Despite their attempts to conceal it, the Red God trembled, wondering how he had provoked these three Demon Kings.
"Damn the Li Family, damn the old bastards, damn the brats!"
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot, and he breathed heavily. He was severely injured and was suppressing his injuries as well as his anger.
He not only failed to avenge the death of his son, but also lost a brother in the process.
Inviting these two men also came at a great cost, and all the Demons under his command were wiped out.
The millennia-old foundation built within the Ten Thousand Mountains Demon Territory was completely destroyed!
His hatred for the boy was almost insane.
"The appearance of that old bastard from the Li Family here means the defenses inside the Divine General Residence are at their weakest. I've heard that the Li Family still has two other old fogies, one whose whereabouts are unknown, and the other who is stationed at the ancestral hall."
"Unfortunately, it's probably too late to send the message out now. We should have anticipated this. If we had contacted the Saint Palace or the Dragon Gate beforehand, and had them lie in ambush Qingzhou City while we were killing that brat, we could have dealt him a heavy blow!"
The Silver-Robed Youth squinted, a hint of annoyance in his eyes; this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"It's hard to say. Since that Fist Saint dared to show up here, he might ask those two old women from the Li Family who married out of the family years ago to go back and help look after him."
Beside him, the Dragon Lord shook his head slightly and said, "Besides, those old guys in the Ancestral Shrine aren't exactly benevolent either. If the Saint Palace and the Dragon Gate are willing to join forces, there might be hope."
"They had already made secret contacts long ago."
The Silver-Robed Youth revealed astonishing news, saying, "Those people who came looking for us before, do you think we can rally them all with just the power of the Great Void Realm? If I'm not mistaken, they should all be banding together by now. It's time for the Great Yu Dynasty to split into ten provinces so we can have some peace and quiet."
"Are they working together?"
The Dragon Lord froze, looking at the Silver-Robed Youth with some astonishment. These forces, which had been secretly rivals and enemies for years without interfering with each other, would actually unite one day?
The Silver-Robed Youth shook his head slightly, not saying anything more, and said, "Let's talk about our current situation first. The Demon Suppression Division Outside the Pass will probably be there soon and put us on the wanted list. Those Demon Suppression Division have a very keen sense of smell. Should we continue traveling together, or part ways?"
Neither the Dragon Lord nor the Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King uttered a sound upon hearing this.
"If we're going together, do you plan to take us to the Saint Palace?" the Dragon Lord asked, looking at him.
The Silver-Robed Youth nodded slightly and sighed, "When I left the Saint Palace, I thought I could have some Easy Duty and quiet, but I never expected that because of Brother Wanshan's matter, I would be forced to bow my head and go back. Apart from the Saint Palace, I don't want to go to the Great Wasteland Heaven. Those guys there are too scary."
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King had cold eyes. He was still grieving over his inability to take revenge and the death of his Brother Gao. The two people beside him were already thinking about their way out and where to go.
To put it bluntly, it's all because of the previous deal; he doesn't care about his feelings.
"I have no interest in the Holy Palace. As for you, if you were to go, you'd probably go to Dragon Gate, right?" the Demon King of Ten Thousand Mountains said to the Dragon Lord.
The Dragon Lord nodded slightly and sighed, "Going to Dragon Gate isn't a good thing either. Years ago, Dragon Gate invited me, but I wanted to Carefree State, so I didn't accept. Now, going there in such a sorry state would be rather embarrassing."
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King sneered.
One says they want Easy Duty, the other says they want Carefree State —what utter nonsense!
They simply weren't tempted by the promise of benefits. They hadn't been unaware of the worst possible outcome of this operation and had already planned their worst-case scenario.
"Since you both have somewhere to go, let's say goodbye here."
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King said.
He was injured, much more severely than the two beside him, and was somewhat wary of the three of them traveling together.
"And you, where do you plan to go? The Great Void Realm?"
"I asked the Dragon Lord."
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King nodded. "Now that things have come to this, there's no other way. I've heard that those guys are all ascetic and live in seclusion. Ha!"
The Dragon Lord sensed the sarcasm in his words, but he wasn't sure if it was directed at the Great Void Realm or at him. He didn't care and said, "The Great Void Realm is about to attack Liang Prefecture. You can take the opportunity to take revenge then."
"Fuck your ass!"
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King' eyes were icy. "Those guys' battle plan was to completely bypass Heaven's Gate Pass, avoiding this thorn in their side, and intending to feast first."
He thought to himself, "They're just a bunch of brainless idiots..." but he didn't say it Dark Dao, lest it get back to the Great Void Realm and cause him Carefree State.
"They've lived in seclusion for many years; it's normal that they'd want to have a good meal before they come out of seclusion."
"That's what the Silver-Robed Youth said."
Immediately, he stood up and said, "In that case, I wish you both a bright future and hope that when we meet again, we can have a drink and a meal together."
"Of course, the three of us have known each other for many years and have some friendship." The Dragon Lord chuckled, his smile appearing amiable.
The Silver-Robed Youth smiled calmly, said nothing more, glanced at the Red God kneeling on the ground, and turned and sped away without looking back.
Seeing this, the Dragon Lord said to the Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King, "Brother, I'm leaving too. Until we meet again!"
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King nodded slightly.
The Dragon Lord glanced at the Red God and said, "Would you be willing to come with me to the Dragon Gate?"
Red God felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He had cultivated for thousands of years and had traveled around in his early years. He had heard of the Demon forces mentioned by these Great Demon Kings and had even received invitations from them in his early years.
However, he didn't agree, for the same reason as these Demon Kings: he wanted some Easy Duty.
He guarded this ancestral river for four or five hundred years, practicing meditation and seeking enlightenment here, feeling completely at Carefree State.
But right now, he could sense the subtle hints in the eyes of the Dragon Lord Demon King as he spoke.
If he doesn't agree, he might lose his life.
These three Demon Kings were wanted by the Great Yu Dynasty, and I knew their whereabouts, so there was no way I would leave them alive.
"I do."
The Red God bowed his head and said gratefully, but his heart was filled with bitterness.
"Alright, in that case, come with me."
"May I tidy up?"
"Allow."
In a short while, the Dragon Lord led the Red God away from this place.
Only the Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King remained seated in front of the Thatched Hut, his face unusually gloomy.
Suddenly, a Qing Feng drifted by, slowly emerging from behind him and transforming into a figure clad in clean clothes.
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King' expression changed slightly, but he did not turn around.
"You've caused such a huge disaster this time, are you still planning to go your own way?" the clean-clothed figure said calmly.
"Ha, did he send you to take me back?"
A mocking smile appeared in the eyes of the Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King.
"As long as you are willing to eradicate your demonic nature and cultivate good roots, you can still be saved," the clean-robed figure said.
"You've certainly never lost a son, have you?" the Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King sneered.
The figure in clean clothes said indifferently, "But you're not the first to die this time."
But I'm the last one!
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King suddenly turned around and roared.
His eyes were bloodshot as he glared angrily at the clean-clad figure before him. "I could never raise such a brilliant son again, do you understand? You should know how terrifying my son's talent is. Given time, he might even unify the entire clan! What a load of rubbish, the Saint Palace, what Dragon Gate —they'll all grovel at my son's feet and obey his commands!"
The clean-clad figure remained unfazed by his roar, calmly replying:
"Your son is intelligent, but to reach that level, it will take at least a thousand years."
"But given the current situation, I'm afraid we won't even have to wait a thousand years."
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King glared at him Anger, but he also knew that what the other party said was true.
Reaching that level would take at least a thousand years, and that would be considered Divine Speed!
But those guys got restless.
He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said in a low voice, "I can't go back with you. I want revenge, and I want to avenge Brother Gao!"
"You're so stubborn, do you really want me to die before you'll stop?"
The clean-clothed figure's eyes turned cold.
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King sneered, staring at him and saying, "If you want to stop me, then try."
The figure in clean clothes stared at him for a moment before slowly saying, "Your demonic nature is deeply ingrained, and you refuse to repent. If you remain obstinate, I can't control you, but there are certain Cultivation Method you mustn't use in front of others, or don't blame me for coming to capture you!"
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King remained silent, his face grim.
"This is a Sacred Heart Treasure Talisman. Keep it to save your life. This is your last chance!"
Treasure Talisman covered in dark Azure light was handed to Jingyi, who coldly warned him before disappearing in a flash.
The Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King accepted the Treasure Talisman, his eyes turning sinister as he sneered:
"Do you really think I'm a dog? I've cultivated for ten thousand years, I am a king, the king of the mountains and forests, the king of Demons!!"
He glared hatefully at the South, towards the direction of Heaven's Gate Pass. Finally, he turned and soared into the sky, crossing the Red Water River beneath his feet, and then raised his hand and slapped it out angrily.
The Heart Demon and rushed into the Great River.
The Demon figures that had been playing and frolicking inside suddenly turned pale with fright and stared at the sky in horror.
"Red God, save me..."
Demons cried out in terror, but their voices were drowned out.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Red Water River turned into blood. The bright red blood, viewed from above, resembled a winding trail of blood and tears on the earth.
The figure of the Ten Thousand Mountains Demon King had already disappeared into the horizon.
Not long after he left, a clean-clothed figure appeared high in the sky.
He glanced down at the river of blood at his feet, murmured a prayer, and whispered to himself, "Could this be considered exorcising demons?"
The next day.
Li Hao entrusted Li Hongzhuang to find someone to escort the Nine Cauldrons Demon King's Precious Blood back to Qing Prefecture.
This was the second favor he owed the Li Family.
Although I heard that the other party is no longer in Qing Prefecture, it doesn't matter, as long as the things are back in that Courtyard.
Next, only one last agreement remains: to guard the city for three years.
Now, more than half a year has passed, and spring is almost here.
There are only a little over two years left.
The snowstorm Outside the Pass has stopped, but the cold wind is still biting. In two months, the South regions will welcome the Spring Rains.
Liang Prefecture was located in the South of the Great Yu Dynasty, so spring came here earlier than in places like Yan Province.
Azure Cliff City is still under construction and being improved, and residential buildings within the city are also being continuously built.
The people from the Bureau of Astronomy constructed Magic Array on the city wall, while Li Hao flew out of the city and arrived at a Lone Peak Mountain Peak a hundred miles outside the city.
He laid out Shadow Threads around himself, then brought up the system Panel to check his attributes.
Currently, he has achieved 6th dan in the Path of the Physical Body, Imperial Dao, Sword Dao, and Path of the Fist.
The Body Movement Dao has three stages.
Both the Fishing Dao and the Painting Dao have 6 sections, and the experience points are almost full.
Li Hao achieved a 5-dan rank in Chess, a 3-dan rank in Musical Rhythm, a 3-dan rank in Poetry and Literature, and a 3-dan rank in Path of Carving. He improved these skills by honing his Boar Tusk Sword during his spare time over the past six months.
The Boar Tusk Sword was also polished into the shape of a sword, but with the Dragon Sky Sword, the Boar Tusk Sword became nothing more than a decoration, or rather, a piece of art that had Sculpting and polished.
With his current achievement of Seventh Dan in Path of Cooking, he has accumulated 33 Art Skill Points.
27 points have been spent, 6 points remain.
He has plenty of Art Skill Point, but his Body Movement Dao are stuck at the Third Dan because he hasn't had the energy to immerse himself in and study Poetry and Literature, and Musical Rhythm to break through to the fourth level.
Without gaining a new State of Mind to help break through the bottleneck of the Third Dan of the Body Movement Dao, I am temporarily stuck here.
However, in the current state of State of Mind section, in addition to the consumed Chess Hearts and Beyond the Border of mind, there is now a new State of Mind.
[State of Mind: Cooking: Entering Spirit (Usable)]
Without a doubt, Li Hao chose to apply this State of Mind to the Path of the Physical Body.
First, improve your own level of understanding.
Following the prompt to add skill points, Li Hao chose to use it. Subsequently, the Art Skill Points disappeared, and at the same time, his Path of the Physical Body broke through from level 6 to level 7.
A long-awaited improvement!
In an instant, a flood of information rushed into my mind.
The sheer volume of information he received this time left Li Hao slightly dazed.
However, given his current physical condition, this information doesn't give him a headache; it's just that the sheer volume of information is like trying to cram a hundred books into one.
Li Hao methodically digested and absorbed this information. As he integrated and absorbed it, his body subconsciously changed and adjusted with this information, and his bones and flesh were slowly writhing.
The Three Immortalities:
Immortal, indestructible, and undecaying!
At this moment, with the input of this Art Skill Point, all the information from the three realms is presented.
For a long time.
Li Hao opened his eyes.
He stood up, and the many physical Cultivation Method on the Panel had all transformed, reaching a level far beyond what they had been before.
Physical skills:
Golden Skin Hundred Refinements - Vajra (True State), this originally low-grade Cultivation Method that I casually practiced, transformed into a high-grade technique when I reached the Sixth Dan of the Path of the Physical Body.
Now, another transformation has occurred— the Hundred Refinements Indestructible Body of Immovable Wisdom King (Transcendent)!
Compared to the original "Stone Skin Hundred Refinements", the name has undergone a complete change.
Most importantly, Li Hao actually saw a new level of cultivation ahead.
Beyond Supreme Perfection, beyond True State, beyond the Transcendent level!!
Entering Spirit, Transcendent!
Li Hao grasped the concept instantly.
If the True State is the manifestation of Cultivation Method reaching its mortal peak, then the Transcendent level is no longer a concept belonging to ordinary Cultivation Method.
Li Hao took a deep breath and suddenly unleashed the ultimate Cultivation Method: Immovable Wisdom King!
Suddenly, a cold wind seemed to rise from the Heaven and Earth, and Li Hao's flesh and blood throbbed, like countless small plates, swelling and gathering. Within every inch of his skin, there were fingernail-sized muscle blocks that were condensing and throbbing.
Finally, his body became slightly larger than before, growing from his current height of 1.8 meters to nearly 2 meters!
His size was incomparable to that of Demon, but the aura emanating from him was far more terrifying than that of Demon.
The combined physical strength and muscles seemed to outline a kind of Flesh Dao Pattern on his body.
Behind it, a faint phantom image, born from the symbiosis of the Heaven and Earth Power, appeared.
The phantom was like Divine Soul, like Dharma Form, standing eight meters tall, majestic and imposing, with its hands clasped together, like a static and serene Deity, bowing its head and remaining silent, yet exuding Aura that made even the wind stop and dare not disturb it!
That is the Transcendent power revealed when this Cultivation Method is cultivated to a Transcendent level!
Beyond the Cultivation Method itself, it resonates with the immense power of Heaven and Earth and earth, forming another force!
Li Hao raised his hand and slowly pushed a palm forward.
The Immovable Wisdom King behind him also slowly raised its palm and pushed forward.
However, the power brought by the two is completely different. The movement of the phantom seems to turn the entire Heaven and Earth into seawater and thick cloth, moving extremely slowly, but with an unstoppable force!
Two hundred meters in front of the mountain peak, a huge palm print-like pit slowly sank into the ground.
There was no impact sound, just a little bit of crushing and denting!
Soon, a palm print with a diameter of four or five meters appeared on the ground.
Li Hao, on the other hand, felt that he hardly exerted any effort; he simply raised his hand.
Li Hao took a deep breath, feeling the surging power within him. His eyes shone brightly, and he felt an urge to fight the Great Demon King again.
At this moment, his rehearsal came to an end.
His physical cultivation level also saw a long-awaited rise.
Of course, this long-awaited breakthrough was only for Li Hao. For others, breaking through the bottleneck from the Heaven and Man Realm to the Three Immortalities Realms in just over half a year was something even a grand opera singer wouldn't dare to do, or they'd be overturned!
But at this moment, that obstacle naturally disappeared, like ice and snow melting away.
From the pinnacle of the Grandmaster Realm, through the Land Immortal Realm, he officially stepped into the Three Immortalities!
Furthermore, they directly bypassed the Undying Realm and reached the Indestructible Realm!
His physical body was undergoing a transformation, as the power of Heaven and Earth and earth surged in and continuously pounded upon it.
The mountain was surrounded by the power of Heaven and Earth and earth, like a hurricane enveloping the entire mountain.
The powerful Aura was sensed by everyone in Azure Cliff City, a hundred miles away, and many people rushed over to investigate. Ren Qianqian, who was waiting at the foot of the mountain, immediately stopped them to prevent them from disturbing Li Hao.
Only after learning from the little girl that it was Li Hao who was cultivating did the Warrior feel relieved; they had previously thought it was some kind of Demon attack.
However, while they were relieved, they couldn't help but feel shocked and astonished when they saw this powerful hurricane.
Is this the cultivation method of the greatest genius of all time Great Yu?
This is practically absorbing the Power of Heaven and Earth like a cow drinking water!
No wonder there's such a big gap between us.
Compared to Li Hao, their cultivation was like counting grains of rice while eating, one grain at a time, while Li Hao would pick up a plate and feast on the whole table.
Li Hongzhuang also rushed over. Upon learning that Li Hao was cultivating, she breathed a sigh of relief and immediately sealed off the area, allowing the onlookers to leave.
Although these Warriors were the ones who had come to help her earlier, it concerned cultivation, which was an extremely confidential matter. Even she, unless out of curiosity, should have avoided suspicion.
However, having witnessed Li Hao's cultivation beforehand, Li Hongzhuang was mentally prepared for this moment.
Meanwhile, in the Cloudmist outside the mountain peak, Old Feng, who had been leisurely taking sips now and then, stopped.
He stared blankly at the mountain peak, a look of astonishment in his eyes.
That kid... broke through to the Three Immortalities?
The Three Immortalities at Fourteen...
Even someone as experienced and resilient as Feng Boping couldn't help but have their eye twitch slightly at this moment.
Will this kid still be under 20 when he reaches the Four Establishments Realms?
Thinking about this, he felt as if his heart had been struck again.
Thank goodness, as long as I'm old enough, I won't be in the same generation as this brat, so it's not shameful...
With this thought, Feng Boping felt his mind clear up again. He took another big gulp, feeling refreshed, slapped his thigh, and grinned from ear to ear.
Meanwhile, on the mountain peak, after practicing the profound meaning of the Hundred Refinements Indestructible Body and the Immovable Wisdom King, Li Hao began practicing other Cultivation Method.
The original Thousand-Dragon Sage, transformed into a dragon, has now become Ten Thousand Dragon Body · True Dragon (True State).
This Cultivation Method is of a high level, so even with Seventh Dan Path of the Physical Body, one has not yet been able to comprehend its Transcendent level.
However, its True State is no less impressive than that of the Immovable Wisdom King from before.
As the exercise progressed, Li Hao's flesh and blood began to pulsate. This flesh and blood was no longer confined to his body; each part of it seemed to contain independent power and consciousness.
Li Hao's physique increased dramatically, his bones grew longer, and the surrounding Power of Heaven and Earth rapidly poured into him, forming scales of a True Dragon on his body!
These scales are formed from the condensation of flesh and blood and the Power of Heaven and Earth, and have already broken through the boundaries of "ordinary people".
Ordinary people are also called Mortal Skin and Common Flesh.
Upon entering the Three Immortalities, one will no longer possess a mortal body; limbs will regenerate, the physical body will not decay, and True Power will not diminish—all of which belong to the Transcendent level.
At this moment, Li Hao's body broke free from the constraints of its original form. Just as Demon who has cultivated to a certain level can use Yao Qi and illusion techniques to transform into a human, its essence remains that of Demon.
Now, Li Hao can also transform into human form, and his transformations are even more realistic than those of Demons. This is not an illusion, but rather a transformation through the reconstruction of flesh and blood, altering his original physical structure.
Appearances can change!
With a low roar, Li Hao's eyes shot out terrifying golden light, his pupils turned crimson gold, his hands transformed into claws, and his body transformed into a small, True Dragon!
This is the extraordinary insight gained from reaching the Seventh Dan of the Path of the Physical Body.
A transcendent understanding of the physical body beyond the ordinary Three Immortalities Realms.
As its physical form changed, the 48,000 pores on its body transformed into 96,000 True Scales, causing its absorption of the Heaven and Earth Power to increase dramatically.
Li Hao immediately understood why the Dragon Clan was so powerful; their innate physical structure and cultivation speed were incomparable to that of the human body.
The key is that the power absorbed through these scales can be rapidly converted within the body.
Some Demons have bodies that are extremely easy to absorb power, but their internal meridians are fragile. If they absorb too much power too quickly, they will explode and die. Therefore, it is necessary to actively slow down the speed at which they absorb power in order to achieve a balance.
This is also the principle that All Things are in harmony with Yin and Yang.
But Dragon Clan are different; they are brutal and simple, absorbing and digesting information quickly!
In the blink of an eye, the Aura within Li Hao's body surged once again, rising from the Indestructible Realm to the Undeclining Realm!
