Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel-Chapter 509 - 349: The Difficult Path of Cultivation
Chapter 509 -349: The Difficult Path of Cultivation
Zhao Tingxian?
Having sensed Zhao Tingxian’s Qi, Chu Zheng felt somewhat bewildered for a moment.
He found it difficult to understand why Zhao Tingxian was here, and moreover, having a conflict with Daoist Venerable Zheng Chu.
After pondering for a while, Chu Zheng concealed his form and approached the center of the great battle.
This was merely an incarnation of Spirit Wood; even if something unexpected occurred, it would not be a major concern, and now he also wished to meet Zhao Tingxian.
The last time they met, his Cultivation was only at Divine Transformation, still far from reaching Tongxuan. Now, he had become a Four Tribulations True Immortal, suppressing a Star Domain on the edge of the universe, both his Cultivation and horizon had undergone a qualitative change, perhaps he could gain some insights through this encounter.
Both he and Zhao Tingxian were Cultivators who came from the Cangyun Realm. Although he practiced both Qi Cultivation, whether the Bloodline Chains would affect him was still an unknown; it wouldn’t hurt to be prepared earlier.
Previously, Zhao Tingxian had mentioned that if he survived to the day of Becoming an Immortal, he would take him to the cosmic edge. Now that he had become a True Immortal, perhaps he could learn some secrets.
As the distance closed, Chu Zheng saw the full scene of the battlefield.
Large chunks of debris from the Floating Island scattered around, buoyed by clouds from Heaven and Earth, drifting everywhere.
The void cracked open countless rifts, a figure stood amid the void, clad in a green and white Immortal Robe, wrapped in the Yin Yang Dual Qi, his eyes like thousand-year-old cold ponds, brimming with murderous intent.
Not far from him stood a golden body clad in a Taoist Robe, bearing a face identical to Chu Zheng.
Chu Zheng’s eyes sparkled with spiritual light, and he quickly gathered some information, although it was somewhat vague as neither of their main bodies were present.
Zhao Tingxian’s Cultivation had advanced further, reaching the Perfection of Immortal Venerable, about to step into the realm of Great Immortal Venerable. This progression was incredibly shocking for a Ninth Order creature.
Daoist Venerable Zheng Chu was the same; He had truly reached the realm of Great Saint Heavenly Venerable, an Incense Fire Spirituality, mighty enough to rival Zhao Tingxian.
Both were currently mere Divine Senses present here, the gap in their strength very small. Zhao Tingxian, without a golden body for support, and the golden body of Daoist Venerable Zheng Chu, also newly created and yet to be nourished by Incense Fire Willpower, could only exert limited power.
However, limited as it was, their combat abilities already surpassed the Seventh Order and even among the Eighth Order, they were considered powerful. Even if Chu Zheng were present in person, he might not gain any advantage.
With the growth of his Cultivation and deeper understanding of the Laws, Chu Zheng felt something new upon viewing Zhao Tingxian again.
The Yin Yang Dual Qi intertwined beside Zhao Tingxian held some beneficial aspects of the Law operations for him, which might be useful in overcoming the Yin Yang Tribulations later.
There was no time for in-depth comprehension now; Chu Zheng could only imprint it directly into his mind, to refer to it later.
Under Chu Zheng’s riveted gaze, Daoist Venerable Zheng Chu suddenly made another move, stirring up the surrounding spiritual energy, his golden pupils seemed to flow with magma, splattering divine brilliance.
Bang!
The void exploded with a boom. The golden body, initially only about thirty yards in size, suddenly swelled, reaching over ten thousand yards in a blink of an eye, covered with dense, ancient Divine Runes – traces left by the flow of Qi.

Is this… Law of Heaven and Earth?!
Chu Zheng’s face became serious, his expression slightly heavy. Daoist Venerable Zheng Chu had not only inherited his repair methods, but had he completely replicated the Divine Skills of the Qi Refining Lineage as well?
Although the Dharma Phase had not fully unfolded, merely ten thousand yards in size, this was clearly a result controlled by Daoist Venerable Zheng Chu.
In the next instant, the massive golden body suddenly lifted its leg and stomped down, its gigantic foot seeming to pierce through the Heavenly Dome, collapsing the void, like stars falling, directly stepping towards Zhao Tingxian’s head.
Watching the ten thousand yard golden body, Zhao Tingxian’s expression remained indifferent, the Yin Yang Dual Qi beside him circulated, gradually blending together, undergoing some kind of transformation.
The life and death Qi intertwined at his side, gradually smelting into a glaring Immortal Radiance.
His figure slowly dissipated, completely merging into the Immortal Radiance, gradually transforming into a three-foot-long sword.
The sword edge swept across the sky, blooming a sword flower, and in an instant, the void turned to water, appearing to stagnate.
Hum—
As the sword light dispersed, before Chu Zheng could react, the chest and abdomen of the ten thousand yard golden body had been split open, its interior empty, and then the golden body began to crumble into dirt at a visible rate, collapsing.
Within a few breaths, the ten thousand yard golden body had completely disintegrated into dust, scattering all around.
Chu Zheng came back to his senses, enlightened; he discerned some clues.
In that moment, Zhao Tingxian had burnt up his Divine Sense incarnation, concentrated all into one sword, and completely shattered the Divine Sense residing within Daoist Venerable Zheng Chu’s golden body.
The method of swordsmanship bore traces of the Sect’s Secret Art from Tai Xu Holy Land, ‘Tai Yuan Dragon Sword Dance,’ but it was not entirely the same; there were some variations.
A streak of Immortal Radiance emerged from the void, gradually coalescing into a human figure.
This strike had clearly drained Zhao Tingxian greatly. His originally solid body became blurred and nearly dissipated. When he appeared, his figure weakened, and his steps faltered, almost failing to stand steady.
Seeing the great battle abate, Chu Zheng stepped out from the void, clasping his fists in greeting:
“Young Chu Zheng pays respect to the senior. It has been a long time without news; is senior unharmed?”
“Chu Zheng?”
Zhao Tingxian tilted his head and scanned over, his eyes flashing like lightning. Noticing Chu Zheng’s current cultivation in this incarnation, his expression involuntarily changed:
“Your current cultivation…”
Just the incarnation alone has already reached Seventh Realm Perfection; the main body’s cultivation must be close to that of a True Immortal.
“Just recently crossed the Golden Tribulation.” Chu Zheng did not conceal, frankly stating, “I was injured during the crossing, still in recovery.”
Hearing this, Zhao Tingxian’s expression slightly stiffened, his mind buzzing, momentarily stunned.
Based on the flow of time, Chu Zheng’s main body in the Great Universe, given his age, is likely not even fifty yet he has already reached the realm of Four Tribulations True Immortal.
Moreover, during this period, Chu Zheng had experienced the severing of the Dao, casting aside the boost of the Incense Fire Divine Path. For ordinary people, recovery is not an easy matter, let alone advancement in cultivation.
Such speed is truly astonishing.
He was almost thoroughly familiar with Chu Zheng’s life from childhood; one could say he watched Chu Zheng grow up.
Before Chu Zheng was even born, he was already an Eight Tribulations True Immortal, wielding the Great World Heavenly Dao, just one step away from True Immortal Perfection.
The gap between them was like Heaven and Earth.
Now, meeting once again, Chu Zheng has already become a Four Tribulations True Immortal. This tremendous impact, even with Zhao Tingxian’s tempered mind, left him somewhat bewildered.
“Senior?” Chu Zheng was a bit puzzled.
Zhao Tingxian subconsciously clenched his fist tightly; after many years of seclusion and exhausting his life’s efforts and foundations, he suddenly seemed like a joke in front of Chu Zheng.
Perhaps the path of cultivation was not so difficult to walk; it was just more difficult for him.
After a long silence, Zhao Tingxian dryly uttered:
“Your achievements in cultivations are fairly difficult for such a short period.”
“It indeed wasn’t easy.” Chu Zheng nodded, a touch of melancholy in his tone; his journey had indeed been walking on thin ice.
Observing the convinced expression on Chu Zheng’s face, Zhao Tingxian suddenly felt a lump in his throat; his previous desire to reconnect with an old friend had vanished.
Chu Zheng’s face, overlapping with that of his previous Golden Body in his mind, seemed to grow a few degrees more arrogant and distasteful.
“Senior, I have some matters I wish to consult about.”
Suppressing his own thoughts, Chu Zheng solemnly said, “I hope senior can offer guidance.”
Zhao Tingxian’s expression remained calm; he waved his hand, “This divine sense of mine is nearly extinguished, unable to maintain for long, so let’s keep it brief.”
Now, he really did not want to engage in a deep conversation with Chu Zheng; it would affect his Dao heart.
“Does senior know of Ancestral Dao’s death?”
“Now All Heavens are on the verge of being swallowed by the Martial Hall, and the Immortal Alliance along with the Myriad Realms are about to form an alliance, presumably to collectively resist the Martial Hall. What do you think the next development of the situation will be?”
“The Boundary has collapsed, and the demons from the Vast Universe have invaded on a large scale. Senior has had deep contacts with these demons before; is there any way to combat them?”
Hearing this, Chu Zheng did not dare to slack off, hurling out several questions before adding again:
“Oh, by the way, I just joined the Immortal Alliance not long ago and now am on the Cosmic Edge, are there any particular things I need to be cautious about?”
Zhao Tingxian:”?”
