To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck-Chapter 1581 - 616: The Descent of a Divine Being_2
Chapter 1581: Chapter 616: The Descent of a Divine Being_2
Besides some perilous lands unsuitable for mortal habitation that remain unexplored, other lands more conducive to life have been reclaimed.
Populations flourish, and minor nations have emerged in the secular world, with a trend towards unification on the horizon.
Meanwhile, some rudimentary breathing techniques have also taken shape, slowly developed through the mortals’ exploratory efforts.
Although these breathing techniques are still shallow and nowhere close to Immortal Techniques, they somewhat resemble the martial arts techniques Lu Yuan practiced in the Nine Provinces realm.
Yet the strongest among those mortals cultivating this method are nearing the threshold of condensing qi.
Relying solely on their own development, the mortals have achieved such results.
Lu Yuan feels reassured, yet also surprised.
However, at this point, it seems that the Taiping realm is about to develop its unique cultivation methods.
He also knows that the mortals’ ties with the Immortal Realm have now been mostly severed.
It is time for him to descend and initiate them into the Immortal Method, leaving behind his own legacy.
Thus,
In the year 3400 of the Huangyuan era, the Taiping realm witnessed astral brilliance and descending purple qi, heralding the arrival of a divine being on Mount Tianmu.
This divine being proclaimed himself Taiping Immortal and came from beyond the skies, intent on transmitting the otherworldly laws to offer mortals the chance at longevity and carefree existence.
From all corners of the realm, nobles, generals, contemporary powerhouses, down to the commoners, elders, women, and children were all stirred by the news.
In just a few months, hundreds of thousands gathered on Mount Tianmu to hear the Immortal teach.
As the Immortal Venerate lectured, celestial phenomena manifested, auspicious clouds followed, and the landscape shifted in hue.
After teaching for three full years and leaving behind two Heavenly Laws, thirty-six Earthly Laws, and one hundred and eight Human Laws, the Taiping Immortal Venerate drifted away.
Despite the desperate pleas of countless listeners, none could make him stay.
Yet even though they could not hold onto him, over a million had heard the Immortal’s teachings within these three years.
Among the multitude, those who had insights into the three categories of laws—Heavenly, Earthly, and Human—were numerous beyond count.
Once these people returned, they practiced in seclusion, and in just over a century, an era of Immortal Method prosperity quietly began in the Taiping realm.
At this moment, Lu Yuan had already left the Taiping realm and returned to Mi Yun Mountain.
In his three years of lecturing, he had imparted his entire heritage, including the legacies of Talisman Masters and both Taiping Dao Fruits.
In theory, those who followed could tread the path he forged and smoothly become Heavenly Immortals.
Of course, this remained theoretical.
To Lu Yuan’s knowledge, there had yet to be any in the Immortal Realm who consecutively attained the same Dao Fruits.
Whether this path is viable remains unclear; the likelihood seems remote.
Even if the path to becoming a Heavenly Immortal is impeded, Lu Yuan still left behind thirty-six pathways leading to the realm of an Earth Immortal, which were the result of his two lifetimes of cultivation, pointing straight to the perfect state of an Earth Immortal.
Whether these laws will lead to success is unknown to him.
But to attain perfection as an Earth Immortal and qualify for a breakthrough to Heavenly Immortal still stands without issue.
If his successors display diligence, and with favorable fortune, they could reach the zenith of these Earthly Laws and become Heavenly Immortals.
As for the Human Laws, they lead at most to the Human Immortal Realm, and Lu Yuan intentionally filtered them to cater to those of average talent and comprehension—an accessible tier of practitioners.
They emphasize simplicity, ease of learning, broad applicability, and are meant to invigorate the cultivation atmosphere of Taiping Dao, enabling the prosperity of the Immortal Cultivation World.
After all, the seeds of cultivation have been planted in Taiping Dao; how far his descendants will go and what achievements they will reach depend on their fortune and wisdom.
Lu Yuan is but a modest Heavenly Immortal, far from the Heavenly Path, unable to care for such distant matters, and to oversee so extensively.
Let it be up to heaven’s will.
Centuries after the conclusion of his lectures, as Lu Yuan was in the midst of fusing his Dao Fruits, he felt a sudden premonition—it was a message from his Avatar, Qing Xuan.
This manifestation conveyed through divine consciousness informed him that news had arrived from the Dongyang Mountain; the Dongyang Great Immortal, Master Shi, had emerged from seclusion.
Having received Lu Yuan’s message, they had sent an emissary, awaiting an audience.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately set aside all his work, Dao Fruits notwithstanding, and exited his seclusion.
Although he intended to meet Shi Junyang, it was not possible to leave the Taiping Domain and meet the other in true form.
That wouldn’t be a meeting; that would be courting death.
Though I have become a Heavenly Immortal, it is merely creating a blind zone under the watchful eyes of the Heavenly Path, temporarily concealing myself.
Now hiding within the Taiping Domain, relying on Formation Methods and the dominion I have already seized, I can still deceive the Heavenly Path, preventing it from discovering me.
But if I were to foolishly rush out now, I would instantly be like a firefly in the night.
While also inconspicuous, there is now a light, significantly increasing the chances of being discovered.
Merely to meet once, Lu Yuan had no intention of taking this kind of risk.
Therefore, this meeting was destined to only occur through a medium.
And the medium he chose was Qing Xuan, this Avatar.
The other party is a Soul Splitting of myself, essentially being me, during the meeting at Dongyang Mountain, Lu Yuan can directly take over Qing Xuan’s body through the connection of Divine Souls, and directly communicate with Shi Junyang.
In essence, this is almost the same as a face-to-face encounter.
After sending someone to Dongyang Mountain to announce the visit, Lu Yuan had Qing Xuan prepare and then promptly followed.
With the Cultivation of a Grand cultivator, it took merely one Timing to arrive from Mi Yun Mountain to Dongyang Mountain.
Upon arrival, everyone at Dongyang Mountain who was still within the Mountain Gate came out to welcome him.
Although the one who arrived this time was only Qing Xuan on the surface.
But who within the Donghua Continent does not know that he is an Avatar of the Taiping Immortal?
Furthermore, with the usual practice of Great Immortal Grandmasters not leaving their Great Domain, past meetings between them generally also opted for this method.
Creating a temporary Avatar to go meet the person they wanted to see.
This was the case at present.
Therefore, even when facing Qing Xuan, no one at Dongyang Mountain dared to take him lightly.
Who knows if within the body, it is the Avatar or the Great Immortal Grandmaster himself managing affairs?
Not to mention, their very own Great Immortal Grandmaster personally came out to welcome him.

As disciples and grand-disciples, how could they dare to act differently, they obediently complied.
Inside Dongyang Mountain, seeing Shi Junyang again, observing his changed appearance, and even the changed aura about him, vastly different from the past, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.
This is indeed, the world changes, seas may turn to mulberry fields.
Even if an old friend has returned, it is just like how I am now Lu Yuan, everything is different.
“Taoist Shi, it has been a long time since we last met, how have you been?”
Thousands of words in his mind ultimately condensed into a single greeting.
Shi Junyang on the other end also revealed a similar expression, looked up and down at the present Lu Yuan, or to say, at this Avatar, with a smile gracing his face: “Reuniting with an old friend, I’m overjoyed, how can I not be well?”
After saying that, he laughed heartily: “We haven’t seen each other for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, now finally returned from going through tribulations, to be able to meet again at Donghua, I am extremely fortunate! Extremely fortunate!
Come, come, come, Taoist Lu, please follow me into the mountain, I must have a good catch-up, I have been waiting for this day ever since I heard of Taoist Lu’s name thousands of years ago.”
After finishing speaking, Shi Junyang took Lu Yuan’s hand and led him affectionately into the mountain in the midst of everyone’s astonished gaze.
As for the welcome celebration held within the mountain, it was directly overlooked by the two.
Why adhere to these mundane formalities in a reunion with an old friend, neither of them were people concerned with that decorum.
Let the celebration be for those below to enjoy among themselves.
Lu Yuan and Shi Junyang, having entered the back mountain, started to drink and converse in the latter’s Cave Mansion.
Separated by so many years, the two had endless words to say, countless perplexities, hoping to seek answers from one another.
They wouldn’t rest until they talked for several months, perhaps even years.
Meanwhile, in the outside world, the news that Taiping Immortal personally visited Dongyang Immortal, with the two Great True Persons having a cheerful conversation, possibly even about reincarnated identities, began to spread.
Because of Shi Junyang’s words, it gradually circulated within Dongyang Mountain and started spreading to the outside world.
The disciples of Dongyang finally understood what it meant when it was said for the past thousands of years within the mountain, that the Great Immortal sensed the aura of an old friend to the North.
After understanding the connection, Dongyang Mountain and Mount Taiping grew even closer.
And why not, when they both share an old bond at the top!
