Qin Li frowned.
Blood Ji and Chu Zitan fell down to the Heavens.
That being said, the Demon Monarch, Fu Zi, and Xiao Bai were also roaming the Heavens.
I hope they’re alright, with the Purple Sacred Luck protecting their bodies, they should be fine.
“After I ascend to the Dharma Phase and join up with Concubine Yu and Ripple, I’ll make a trip to roam the Heavens as well, and I should be able to meet them.”Qin Li said.
The Solitary Old Devil laughed, “That’s good, it’s long overdue for you to travel the heavens, and I can be your guide as well. Although I’m not considered to be travelling with the Ten Thousand Realms, I do know the customs of many great worlds.”
Qin Li nodded.
Thereupon.
The crowd dispersed to cultivate.
For half a year, everyone’s strength had exploded.
Basically, they had all risen one or two levels, their battle power approaching the peak of Nirvana.
Qin Li was not lacking in Longevity Substance and Yuan Ancestor Blood Qi, and with the accumulation over the past twelve years, once he sunk his heart into it, he would skyrocket.
Even the two girls, Zhao Tianyu and Bai Ruyun, had their eyes opened wide under the tutelage of the crowd.
Everything was moving in a good direction.
Qin Li, however, was not happy.
There were hidden worries in his heart.
From time to time, his heart palpitated.
It was as if there was something that hadn’t been done.
“Cang Qing token, are you urging me on?”
Qin Li stood at the mouth of the cliff and took out the ancient celadon token, which was slightly hot.
He understands that the token is just a lure, attracting himself to the First Mountain, which is the centre of the Heavenly Emperor’s calculations and a heavenly net.
“The world is in flux, the wind and rain are strong, I am but a moth, weak, but not stupid, and moreover, I don’t want to throw myself into the net.”Qin Li threw the Evergreen Token into the Mountain and River Bracelet, no longer caring.
But did things end like this?
Qin Li looked into the distance.
Miles of cloudy seas rippled with waves, and the fantastical haze was treacherous and dreamy.
Such stunning colours on earth, but he had no time to appreciate them, because his heart was in a deep state, inexplicably having a feeling of being oppressed, as if something was about to happen, and as if invisible ropes were lassoed around his neck, dragging him into the situation.
“Husband!”
Bai Ruyun called out.
“Ah!”Qin Li suddenly woke up.
“Hubby, your face looks very wrong.”Bai Ruyun stroked Qin Li’s cheek.
Qin Li shed a sunny smile, “I’m a Great Sun Sword God, how could I possibly be alright?”
“But you were at the mouth of the cliff, standing for a little over half an hour, with your pupils dilated and dumbfounded, you wouldn’t have been like this before.”Bai Ruyun was understanding and delicate, and had discovered that Qin Li was out of sorts very early on.
“Yes?”
Qin Li was jolted.
He didn’t realise that so much time had passed.
However, he didn’t want his wife to worry, so he digressed:
“It’s just a daze, no big deal. By the way, it seems like I’m going to teach you swordsmanship, so let’s start now.”
Bai Ruyun nodded.
She knew that Qin Li didn’t want to talk about it, so she didn’t push.
The two of them left the cliff, and Qin Li imparted a set of the Thirteen Dukes of the Cloud Kingdom, which was a collection from the Divine Demon Village’s book library and was very suitable for Bai Ruyun.
Incidentally, the Divine Deity Sword used by Bai Ruyun and the Formless Sword used by Zhao Tianyu had now both been promoted to one-knob spiritual treasures, which were also considered treasures for suppressing Cloud Mist Peak.
After practising a set of sword techniques, Qin Li rose in a light sweat, his mood was much more relaxed, and that palpitating feeling was suppressed.
He was truly a natural swordsman, he still needed to practice more martial arts before he could get through.
“It’s getting late.”
Bai Ruyun smiled happily as well.
The great sun was setting in the west, the sky and earth were dusk, and the sea of clouds was a gorgeous red and yellow.
“Alright, wash up, we’re most ready to sleep.”Qin Li sheathed his sword and smiled faintly.
At their cultivation level, they were already capable of not eating, drinking, or sleeping.
However, there were still a large number of cultivators that retained the habit of eating, drinking and sleeping, and even Old Devil Dugu recommended Qin Li to sleep more.
This was because cultivators with a clear divine mind did not dream, and if they did, it was an omen, a subconscious agitation.
Many half-step Dharma Phase giants were enlightened in their dreams and promoted to Dharma Phase.
“Hubby, let’s sleep!”Mo Demon ran over, a black gauze skirt half-transparent and half-hidden, outlining her shapely figure.
The sleep in her mouth was naturally more than just sleeping.
“I can’t stand it when you’re like this!”Qin Li smiled awkwardly.
“Liar!”
Mo Demon spat out her tongue.
“The might of the Sacred Body is not something that a group of our sisters can defeat.”
The remaining few women also giggled, not at all like letting Qin Li off the hook, tossing and turning until the latter part of the night before subsiding.
Qin Li finally went to sleep.
Today was a bit tiring, but very happy.
Cultivating and practising the sword during the day, and playing with the girls at night.
How wonderful life is, carefree, no worries, hopefully always ……
“Is there really no worries?”
Suddenly!
A cold voice came.
It was freezing and cold to the bone.
“Who? Who is speaking?”Qin Li awoke with a start, his eyes opening.
However, he found that this was not Cloudmist Peak, but also a misty zone, the air filled with grey mist, and a chilly wind that destroyed one’s soul.
“Where is this place?”
Qin Li frowned.
“Wait, where’s my Taichu Swordbirth, the Hall of Valour?”
Qin Li was puzzled in his mind, “Is this a dream realm? Or perhaps an illusionary realm? Who brought me here, and who was talking just now?”
Ahead.
Amidst the mists.
Flickering with a bit of emerald green light.
Qin Li gritted his teeth and searched for the trail.
Arriving at a dilapidated peach forest, withered branches like claws and remnant leaves piled up.
This place was like a ghostly land, filled with grey mist, devoid of life, with mournful cries faintly coming in, like sobs.
“Peach Garden!”
Qin Li looked back:
“It must be the Immortal Emperor’s doing!”
His anger flared as he walked through the Peach Spirit and arrived at the central area.
There was still a jade table and two jade stools, only that a mirror was placed on the table.
Behind it, was the Peach Immortal Tree, with branches and trunks like dragons, old roots gnarled and twisted, with only one peach leaf remaining on the branch, verdant and surrounded by immortal light.
“Immortal Emperor, today I will have to dig up your grave and end my karma!”
Qin Li had been depressed about this for a long time, and at this moment, his anger was steaming, his eyes were ablaze, and he strutted away.
No sword in his hand.
But the killing machine in his heart was blazing.
Fist clenched, is a heavy bombardment.
The Peach Tree trembled, wood shavings crumbled and flew, and the last peach leaf was shaken off.
Qin Li punched after punched, already oblivious, even when both fists bled, he could not shake half of his determination.
Finally!
The Peach Tree collapsed with a loud bang.
With his own strength, Qin Li broke through the tree trunk and dug out an Immortal Jade Coffin.
“Let me see your true colours!”Both of Qin Li’s palms were stained with blood as he peeled away the Immortal Jade Coffin with all his might.
There was a rumbling sound.
The coffin boards were lifted off.
The person in the coffin was clearly Qin Li.
His brows were serene and breathless, his arms embracing Taichu and his head holding the Hall of Valour.
“This isn’t the Immortal Emperor, this is me.”Qin Li’s face turned white, unable to accept this result.
“Since Qin Li is lying in a coffin, then who am I?”I couldn’t help but feel a palpitation in my heart, playing with my sideways glance, above the stone table, there was a mirror.
Quickly walking to it.
Pick up the stone mirror on the table.
Lift up a light, inside emerged an absolute immortal face.
His eyes reflect the worlds of the heavens and the worlds of the world, proudly looking at the world’s living beings, supreme and noble.
The man in the mirror opened his mouth, ice-cold and piercing, the same figure from earlier, “I am the Immortal Emperor, and you are also me, but not Qin Li.”
“No!”
Qin Li’s anger increased.
With a vigorous smash, he shattered the stone ban.
This one Peach Garden shattered open, all the mists disappearing.
Qin Li woke up with a start, his body covered in cold sweat and his face blanched, “It’s just a dream, thankfully it’s just a dream!”
Clatter!
The sound of water flowing came from his ears.
Qin Li froze and looked around blankly.
This was not Cloudmist Peak, but a place beside a river.
“What’s going on, am I still in a dream?”Qin Li’s chest stuttered.
He calmed down and noticed white mist rising from all eight directions, the milky colour pure white, a highly condensed Qian Yuan Spiritual Qi.
“This shouldn’t be …… here,” Qin Li understood that he had woken up, catalysing the Mountain and River Bracelet and taking out the Cang Qing Token, which rolled uncharacteristically hot and was guiding a direction.
Over a few mountains.
One would be able to see the end of everything.
Ahead, a jade mountain stood in the heavens and earth, the mountain was 30,000 feet tall, lofty and transcendent.
The jade mountain was transcendent, surrounded by the flavour of the Great Dao, evolving endless Myriad Runes, and there were a thousand elephants for standing, as if it was an immortal mountain.
Mountain.
There are also three treasures.
A Yuan Qi vortex, pouring Qian Yuan spiritual energy, converging into a waterfall.
Two pieces of broken green rock, this is where Qin Li used to sit in oblivion, now crumbling apart, the interior is hollow, I think the pendulum is hidden here.
The last item was the Infinite Sword Pine, a dozen feet in height, pale and gnarled, biting into the green mountain, a thousand needles and ten thousand leaves are all swords, this was the embodiment of the Heaven and Earth’s Sword Dao, the sound of the swords bursting forth, deafening.
“Shushan!”
Qin Li’s face changed drastically.
“How did I end up at First Mountain?”
Sleeping at home, dreaming of the Peach Garden, and waking up on Shou Mountain.
“Not only have I fallen into the Immortal Emperor’s trap, I’ve also fallen into the Heavenly Emperor’s net.”
Qin Li’s heart was filled with a sense of crampedness, although the heaven and earth were wide, he had been forced to the brink and pushed forward.
“To enter the First Mountain? Behind the Gate of Xuan Mare, there might be an answer!”
