Chapter 697: Eternal Beauty, Escape to Mountains and Seas

Chapter 697: Eternal Beauty, Escape to Mountains and Seas

In the charming atmosphere, Yu Lie successfully transformed into a lower-level Taoist master in just over one night.

However, he did not break away immediately. Instead, he continued to act ridiculously for most of the night as if he had tasted the sweetness of it.

It was not until the golden elixir that Zi Zhuzi passed out, when the elixir energy in it was almost exhausted and had to return to the physical body to absorb spiritual energy, that Yu Lie released it.

At this time, Zi Zhuzi's face was flushed red. She only had time to roll her eyes at Yu Lie before her body seemed exhausted and she fell into a deep sleep.

Yu Lie picked her up by the waist, placed her carefully on the bed, and put a robe on her. Then, after hesitating for a while, he picked up his own robe from the ground and put it on.

After he put it on and shook his sleeves, the decadent atmosphere in the room immediately disappeared and the air became fresh.

On the ground, on the table, on the railings, in the corridor, on the roof, etc., all traces disappeared.

Yu Lie sat cross-legged beside Zi Zhuzi, slightly closed his eyes, and after checking the situation inside his body, he confirmed:

"I have mastered the art of eating wind and drinking dew. I no longer need to rely on the formations in the Purple Palace. I can restore my mana and energy by breathing alone. I will never get tired!"

His spirit was boosted. With this transformation, his ability to protect himself was greatly improved even if he was stranded in the void or trapped in danger.

And from then on, Yu Lie's magic power was able to break through the five hundred years and continue to grow.

He estimated that the innate immortal energy in his purple mansion was enough for him to increase his cultivation by sixty years in one go.

For Yu Lie now, this is neither too much nor too little.

Because in order to make another breakthrough, Yu Lie has to accumulate another two hundred years of Taoist practice, that is, the total Taoist practice reaches seven hundred years, so that he can undergo the next round of transformation and break through to a mid-level Taoist master.

Yu Lie's eyes flickered:

"And the next round of transformation will be the transformation of 'eternal beauty'.

Those who achieve this transformation will be immortal, their strength will not decline until death, and unless cursed by an immortal, their injuries will recover. It is extremely useful!"

If he completes the transformation of "eternal beauty", even if Yu Lie practices slowly in the future, his appearance will not age because his age catches up with his practice.

Moreover, his condition and energy will always be maintained at its peak.

Those who have mastered the elixir can be considered immortal.

Of course, it is only longevity, and it is longevity compared to short-lived species, because even a first-grade golden elixir has a lifespan of no more than a thousand years.

If one must exceed a thousand, one can either possess the body of an immortal species such as a dragon, or transform into a being like the Dragon Boat Taoist Priest, neither human nor ghost.

Yu Lie continued to think: "According to what is written in the book, if we can refine a pill to keep our youth, we can easily and successfully get through the transformation of 'eternal beauty'. It is not difficult at all.

However, the refining of this kind of anti-aging pill requires the use of specific immortality medicine as the medicinal material for the refining of the pill..."

He had obtained the Taoist inheritance of the Huoluan Immortal Palace. The method of refining the Rejuvenating Pill was not a rare thing. It was also available in the Huoluan Immortal Palace, so he naturally obtained it as well.

However, Yu Lie no longer had the corresponding immortality medicinal materials.

If he was still in the Mountain and Sea Realm, and became a disciple of the Heavenly Venerable, he only needed to say a word, and the immortals in the sky would certainly give him face. Not only would they give him the medicinal herbs for free, but they would most likely provide them to him at a fair price.

It is even possible that as soon as the Great Celestial Venerable opens his mouth, the already refined "Anti-Rejuvenation Pill" will be delivered to Yu Lie.

Thinking of this, Yu Lie once again had some distracting thoughts in his mind: "Why not continue to stay here... No!"

But as soon as this distracting thought arose, he extinguished it with the sword of wisdom in his heart.

He now has the hope of immortality and becoming an immortal, and what he seeks is true freedom. How can he make a decision and ruin his future just because of a mere transformation?

Yu Lie raised his head slightly, his gaze seemed to penetrate the floor, penetrate the mountains and seas, and look into the boundless void.

There was a flame in his eyes:

"The void is vast, the world is endless, let alone the immortality elixir used to refine the Rejuvenating Pill, there is even an immortality elixir that can make people become immortals instantly!

Otherwise, the Qi-refining practitioners of that time would not have traveled through the Three Thousand Worlds, and would not have left behind such a wonderful book as the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

Moreover, if I succeed in escaping this time, in addition to finding medicine on my own, I can also go to the area where the "Ni Liu Zi" is and trade with the immortals of that generation..."

When Yu Lie thought of the various legendary void worlds and boundless sea of ​​stars, the reluctance and fear that had originally lingered in his heart were gradually replaced by a strong sense of anticipation.

Having said that, he had heard so much about foreign conquests and the development of foreign lands, but apart from a few trials, he had never truly come into contact with the void and the myriad worlds.

“I wonder if life in the void sea of ​​stars is as exciting and dangerous as described in the book. It is beyond the imagination of being trapped in a corner!”

Yu Lie stood up suddenly.

He flashed and was about to jump away.

But when he walked to the window, Yu Lie suddenly turned his head, and his eyes met Zi Zhuzi, who was secretly opening his eyes and staring at him behind him.

The two looked at each other.

The redness on Zizhuzi's face was still as strong as ever, and would not fade away.

Yu Lie smiled lightly and said:

"wait me back."

He snapped his fingers and a wisp of innate immortal energy popped out from his sleeves and flew onto Zi Zhuzi's body.

Zi Zhuzi did not resist, so the immortal energy flew directly into her body.

"This is..." She sensed the mystery of this energy, and her spirit suddenly lifted, a little dazed:

"Innate Qi?!"

When she came to her senses, Yu Lie's figure had disappeared from her sight, leaving only a gust of wind wandering in the room.

When Zi Zhuzi saw this, the joy that had just risen in his heart was immediately replaced by a feeling of melancholy.

........................

After leaving Heishui Town, Yu Lie did not immediately rush to Taozhou, but wandered around Qianzhou.

After going around in a long circle, he finally changed his appearance and became an ordinary-looking Taoist priest, and flew towards Taozhou Taoist City in a covert manner.

When he was about to reach Daocheng, he simply dived into the ground and traveled through the deep underground.

In any living world, the thick strata contain not only geomagnetism but also various evil spirits. The deeper you go, the more difficult it becomes. It is like a strong wind layer, which can block the vision and hearing from above.

Even the spiritual consciousness of an immortal cannot expand too far deep into the earth.

This is exactly the reason why the old monster Xuanxin chose to bury the Xuanpin Gate very deep underground.

Yu Lie wandered around underground on his own and sent out treasure-hunting bamboo rats to help explore, but in the end, it was with the guidance of Tie Jianlan and others that he found the location of the Xuanpin Gate.

In the underground cave.

Yu Lie's figure suddenly appeared, causing the blood light that filled the entire cave to shake.

He looked at the blood light that entered his eyes, and the mysterious gate in the center of the blood light, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

After taking a good look, Yu Lie cast a glance at the treasure-hunting bamboo rat in his hand, as if to say, "Look, there are things you can't find, too."

The mouse was spinning around mindlessly in Yu Lie's hands, but it finally stood up and squeaked in protest at Yu Lie, shouting that the scene before it must be an illusion.

"Oh, oh, oh!" It seemed to be still cursing.

This was because until he reached the front of the Xuanpin Gate, Shu Mang had not detected any unusual fluctuations in the spiritual or earth energy around him.

Whether in Yu Lie's spiritual consciousness or in Shu Mang's perception, such caves should be empty and there should not be anything wrong.

But Yu Lie stood in front of the Xuanpin Gate. He could sense from his naked eyes and body that the blood in front of him was not an illusion.

Yu Lie stared at the Xuanpin Gate and thought to himself:

"It is indeed a treasure that can travel across billions of miles and even hide from the Great Celestial Lord. It is indeed magical."

He looked at it carefully and found that based on his knowledge of talisman arrays, this magical Xuanpin Gate seemed to be just an anchor point, a rune imprint used to attract some kind of great power, rather than a magical weapon.

"This is exactly what Shi Hanzi said. If you want to open and use this kind of portal, the person behind the door needs to exert force. I just need to help this door break through the void."

Yu Lie breathed a sigh of relief.

Otherwise, with his magic power of a golden elixir, even if his magic power was refined and pure, it would be a fantasy to want to open such a portal that could span billions of miles.

He also felt that the credibility of Shi Hanzi's words increased a bit.

After pondering for a long time, Yu Lie waved his hand and took the muttering rat back to the purple palace.

Instead, Tie Jianlan's figure flashed, and she was released by Yu Lie and landed in front of the cave.

Tie Jianlan was in a daze. When she came to her senses and saw the Xuanpin Gate in front of her, her eyes burst into surprise and she said:

"How is it? Brother Yu!

My master and I didn't lie to you, did we? Without the secret order given to you by my master, even if you searched underground in Taozhou Daocheng for a whole year, you probably wouldn't be able to find it."

Just as she finished speaking, her body couldn't help but shake again. A ray of light flew out from her Niwan acupoint, landed beside her, and turned into a floating human figure.

The figure was none other than Shi Hanzi.

Shi Hanzi escaped, glanced at the Xuanpin Gate, and chuckled, "It has been a few days, and the power of this gate has become more exposed. If it had not been activated before, even if the immortal's true body came, he would have missed it."

Yu Lie nodded and said calmly:

"Very good. If it is really as you two fellow Taoists said, we can take this opportunity to leave without alarming anyone, which can save us a lot of trouble and also avoid involving other people as much as possible."

Shi Hanzi replied: "Of course, fellow Taoist, just rest assured."

It paused, and then explained, "The Xuanpin Gate is extremely small. The more people enter and exit through it, the greater the noise will be. Today, only three of us were transported in. No, to be more precise, only two of us, Daoist friend and I, were transported in. And there was no immortal, so the noise should be smaller than even a slight earth dragon turning over."

The earth dragon turning over is the term for earthquake in the mountain and sea world.

Shi Hanzi chuckled and said, "It just so happens that the Taozhou area has been burned to ashes by the true fire of the sun, and all the ghosts, gods and monsters have been exterminated. Right now, only the disciples of your palace are patrolling on the ground, and they will not alarm others."

Yu Lie nodded slowly.

If he could leave quietly this time, then although his disappearance was sudden, it would cause an uproar and even directly arouse the fear of the Great Celestial Lord.

However, outsiders could not confirm whether he was alive or dead. Even Zi Zhuzi did not know his whereabouts, so it was difficult to link him to the defection from Shanhai.

Even if the Great Celestial Venerable was angry, the possibility that he would destroy the Huoluan Immortal Palace, exterminate the Qianzhou Taoist Palace, and kill Zizhuzi, Heishuizi and others without real evidence is very small.

After all, Zi Zhuzi and the others also have top-grade golden elixirs, and unlike Yu Lie, each of them still has a Taoist talisman in their body and is blessed by the immortal talisman.

From now on, they just need to keep a low profile and be patient, and not leave the area of ​​the Mountain and Sea Realm, and their lives should be guaranteed.

"It is even possible that the Great Tianzun will act as if nothing happened and Tianzhou will continue to exist." Yu Lie looked forward to it.

However, he was prepared for the worst, and sighed, "But if the situation is not good, the Ascension Battle in more than a hundred years will be a matter of life and death for Master Zi and the others.

If I want to protect Master Zi and the others, I'd better have a certain amount of power to compete with the Immortal Court before the Ascension War begins."

Yu Lie was calculating in his mind: "We can't do it before the Ascension War is over at the latest. Otherwise, even if Master Zi and the others survived the many dangers with their own strength, they will probably become prey to the Immortal Court!"

According to his understanding, a pioneering war could last for hundreds or even thousands of years, especially since the battlefield chosen for the battle of ascension was a complete middle thousand world.

To open up such a world, a thousand years is often a reasonable amount of time, from the start of the war to the complete conquest.

It is just enough to defeat the first to third generations of Dancheng-level creatures, so as to completely eliminate the possibility of immortals being born in the outside world.

However, the purpose of the Ascension War is to cultivate the golden elixirs in the Mountain and Sea Realm to become immortals. It is impossible to destroy the golden elixirs within the realm. The speed should be much faster, preferably three hundred years, and it may even be shortened to about a hundred years.

In other words, Yu Lie still has about two hundred years of ample time to grow. If he delays any further, the risk to Zi Zhuzi and others will increase dramatically!

In the cave.

Yu Lie looked at the blood-glittering Xuanpin Gate, gritted his teeth and whispered in his heart:

"Two hundred years is enough!"

He only needs to spend the next hundred years to break the elixir and become immortal.

If he spends another hundred years to become a True Immortal, he will be another "troublemaker Immortal" of the past, able to kill earthly immortals with his sword with the body of a True Immortal, or even better than those immortals!

While Yu Lie's thoughts were churning, Tie Jianlan next to him continued to recite the mantra silently under the guidance of Shi Hanzi, trying to open the Gate of Xuanpin.

Hey.

Suddenly, the blood light in front of Yu Lie increased, and an eight-foot-high chaotic blood gate finally emerged slowly.

However, this portal is tight, and the blood light around the body is swirling sluggishly.

Tie Jianlan and Shi Hanzi looked up suddenly and looked at Yu Lie expectantly.

Yu Lie paused slightly, and without hesitation, he took out the origin of mountains and seas that he obtained from killing Xuan Xin, and pinched it hard.

There was a loud buzzing sound. Under Yu Lie's control, the origin of mountains and seas took effect, and holes appeared in the extremely stable space around him.

At this moment, the space inside the cave was free from the suppression of the immortal consciousness of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

The blood gate slowly opened and spread into the void.

Yu Lie looked at the chaos in the door and grabbed his sleeves:

"Void Star Sea, I am here!"
