Su Qing sat cross-legged on the couch, her spiritual consciousness and power surging.
The perception was pitch black, and a huge stone door emerged. There is another world behind the stone door, you can see it just by pushing it open.
Su Qing was knocked down from the True Immortal Realm, and returning to the Heavenly Immortal Realm no longer required him to experience a catastrophe.
The three flowers of the Earthly Immortal gather at the top of the Five Qi towards the Yuan Dynasty, and the Heavenly Immortal begins to open a cave and jump out of the Three Realms.
Every immortal has his own cave world.
Deducing the birth and death of all things in the world, and observing the changes of living beings in the three realms. It seems to be a fake world, but the rules are the same as those in the real world. It can also deduce Taoism and enlighten real living beings.
The realm is only one level apart, but it is a world of difference. The biggest difference during this period is the understanding and mastery of the rules. But for Su Qing, who was once in a true fairyland, this is exactly the part that he doesn't need to worry about the least.
The seven wonders left in Di Shengqian Continent and the Maoshan Taoist Temple in Qingzhou in the Northern Territory all rely on the understanding of the cave world. If Su Qing were an ordinary earthly immortal, there would be no way he could do this.
"You don't need to go through a catastrophe to understand the great path, but it won't be easy to break the barrier." Su Qing remained humble as always, "Five days, about the same."
While Su Qing was in retreat, Penglai Island also felt something.
There was not a single cloud in the sky, but the light suddenly became dim. An invisible pressure enveloped them, making all living beings feel depressed.
Huahuacaocao bent down, as if being pressed down by something. The fairy apricot spiritual roots on the top of the mountain are still tall and straight, but they also make a strange squeaking sound. Even the gurgling water seemed to be still.
Bluebirds and cranes return to their nests together, while clay children and snakes huddle under the trees. The proud little Luan bird that had just hatched squatted under the alchemy cauldron and narrowed its eyes.
The sea outside Penglai was calm, and the storm-like protective circle disappeared. But the island exudes an inexplicable pressure, causing the sea to continue to sink. The sea with a radius of hundreds of miles sank like a cliff.
If a ship comes to the edge, you will find that you cannot see the bottom of the sea. The bottomless abyss of darkness seems to be swallowed up at a glance.
The sky also changed. The blue sky seemed to be pushed aside by something. It was a darkness deeper than the ocean abyss. The flying birds didn't dare to approach at all, and Liuyun stayed away from them.
People's exploration of Penglai has never stopped over the years, and this vision has naturally been discovered by many people.
It's just that people are also used to the mystery of Penglai, so there is no commotion caused by it. At most, it seems that the Lord of Penglai is casting spells again, and the difficulty of seeking immortality has once again increased.
The vision lasted for five years in the human world, and five days passed in Penglai.
A crisp sound came from inside the Dingfeng Villa.
It looked like something had been broken, or like an old door being pushed back. Amidst the clicking sounds, Penglai, which had been dull for five days, became lively.
The bent flowers and plants collectively straightened their waists, like overwhelmed almond trees swaying their branches and leaves. The spring water flowed gurglingly and surged once again. A gust of breeze blew across the island, and all the creatures were filled with vitality.
Without the heavy pressure, the bluebirds and cranes wanted to sing loudly. But the scene at the next moment caused them to be silent.
The blooming wild flowers wither and bloom again, and the green grass withers and grows again. The running water was covered with a thin layer of ice for one moment, and then quickly melted away the next...
Except for the two apricot trees on the top of the mountain, Penglai continues to experience the four seasons.
The vision outside Penglai also disappeared.
The sky became blue again, and the deep sea slowly smoothed out. Everything is restored to its original state.
Except Penglai.
Penglai Island completely disappeared into the sea, and the ambitious seekers who came from afar were shocked.
Although there had been storms and waves before, Penglai had always been looming among them. Even if you can't actually arrive, you can still look at it from a distance with a pilgrim mentality.
But now, nothing can be seen.
People drove their boats forward, but there was nothing in front of them. There is nothing to prove its existence except decades of legend and memory.
Lifting the form and ascending the void is called an immortal. Earthly immortals can stay in the human world, but heavenly immortals can watch from a distance for mortals.
Penglai Island has not disappeared, but it is difficult for mortals to see it again.
But compared to Su Qing, there are more things that can be seen.
Because the original realm was beyond that of a heavenly being, restoring the first level did not bring much. There is no need to experience or understand the laws and principles. The main difference lies in the power of spiritual consciousness.
Now Su Qing's perception is more acute and he can already see the boundary of Jiuzhou.
Although it still clouds perception, the appearance of the obstacle can be seen.
The land of Jiuzhou has four phenomena in all directions, and every continent has a boundary.
Those barriers not only block immortals like Su Qing, but even create illusions that confuse mortals. Even if an unsuspecting ship reaches the boundary, it will look back in confusion. Only those with great opportunity and perseverance can cross that border.
Having seen it before in the underworld, Su Qing was not too surprised. However, I really care about the boundary of heaven.
The three realms have their own divisions and cannot be easily crossed. Compared with the barriers of the underworld, it is much easier for immortals to ascend to heaven.
Previously, Su Qing had tried to find Heaven because of Shinto. But nothing was found, not even the entrance to heaven.
Now we know why.
Even the heavens actually have additional barriers, thus blocking his perception.
"There is Yin and Yang but there is no order, there is heaven but there is isolation. This world is really weird."
Su Qing withdrew his perception.
Are there immortals in the heaven, and is there a heaven behind the barrier? Su Qing is naturally curious about what is hidden in this world.
But now is not the time to explore.
The nine continents of the human world have not yet been fully understood, so why worry about heaven. At the very least, you can only consider this matter when you return to the heyday of True Fairyland.
"The cave world has been opened, and it is time to evolve and control the four images and try to refine the magic weapon." Su Qing looked beyond Penglai to a small island in the sea.
"Using the island as a embryo, it should be possible to give it a try."
The most basic requirement for refining magic weapons is materials, but neither Qingzhou nor Dishengqianzhou in the Northern Territory has suitable materials. We can only spend some effort and start with worldly things.
The island Su Qing saw was a deserted island. It had been washed by wind and rain on the sea, and it was more or less a place where spiritual energy gathered.
By using the Cave Heaven to evolve the Spring and Autumn Period, and then eliciting the power of the Four Symbols, we might be able to refine something that works.
Su Qing stepped on the clouds and flew up, heading straight for the island.
At about the same time, the coast of Qingzhou in the Northern Territory.
Guan Zheng and Dou Qianli, two veteran martial artists, were seeing off their apprentices.
Both of them had white hair, and they looked at a ship going away, with reluctance and worry in their eyes.
"Eighteen years have passed in the blink of an eye. It goes by so fast. To be honest, I really can't bear to leave this bastard." Dou Qianli looked at the boat with a sad and even worried tone.
"Is it okay to let him go? His kung fu skills are miscellaneous and he has never been able to integrate them. He looks great now, but in the long run, I'm afraid it will be more disaster than blessing."
"You have to do it even if you can't. Who told you to lose?" Guan Zheng's expression showed nothing, "You have been in the second level of Yuan Shen for many years, and you can't even compete with a newly promoted second level student."
"You dare to talk about me? You are not as good as me." Dou Qianli glared, "How many years have you been in the third level, and you still haven't defeated him? You are called the number one in Qingzhou Martial Arts, bah."
"That's because he is too cunning and made a promise of a hundred moves. I can defeat him with just two or three more moves." Guan Zheng seemed to be feeling a little emotional, "His talent in martial arts is unparalleled, and it is difficult to defeat him within a hundred moves." Up and down. If you want to win in a short time, I'm afraid it will only be possible if you turn four."
"It's just that he has great talent, but he also has so many tricks." Dou Qianli complained bitterly and turned to look at Guan Zheng.
"But, having said that, Lao Guan, your talent is not bad. You should be able to try to break through the fourth rank. Before I went to sea, you said that you would reach the fourth rank within twenty years. Calculating the time, it should have been there long ago. It’s been a long time.”
"You believe it even if I say it casually?" Guan Zheng ignored him.
"No matter who you are, you never said you were lying." Dou Qianli's face was full of doubts, "You really can't win within a hundred moves. Could it be that you let him go on purpose?"
Guan Zheng was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "You must have heard the news about Penglai's disappearance not long ago."
"So what if I heard that, it has nothing to do with me." Dou Qianli blushed.
Guan Zheng added, "My junior brother Zhang Meng founded the Tianlei Sect after leaving Maoshan. It is said that he has learned the immortal method that is close to that of Tianlei, and now he is very famous."
"If you practice immortality without any chance, you will be struck by lightning sooner or later." Dou Qianli's face became even darker.
"No matter you or I, we have no chance of immortality. Being obsessed with martial arts is a belief, but it is also a helpless choice." Guan Zheng sighed.
"You also said that the kid Jinlin's kung fu is very complex, and there will be hidden dangers over time. But you and I can't help him anymore. Apart from exploring on our own, the only option is Penglai. Going to sea at this time, maybe we can have a chance luck."
"Oh, luck..." Dou Qianli said with a face full of pain, "What's the use of luck? The key is to grasp it. Although this kid is very thoughtful, he is too accepting of death. Even if it happens, I'm afraid..."
"Yes, immortality..." Guan Zheng also felt, "How difficult it is."
Amid the lamentations of the two masters, Xu Jinlin sailed for several days and saw a small island.
…
There is an immortal in Penglai, but the two elders looked for it to no avail. A few years later, I heard about the fairy again and went to sea. The two elders said that it is difficult to get a chance to become an immortal, and if you are lucky, it will be fruitless. After traveling for several days, I met an immortal.
