Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 762 - 683: Carefree Dream Road!

When Ao Le was refining the 'Divine Tomb', a sudden idea struck Lu Qingfeng's mind, a wave of inspiration washed over him.

"Is someone scheming against me?"

Lu Qingfeng quickly started making calculations with his fingers.

However, the Heavenly Mechanism was hazy, and he couldn't get a clear insight.

All he could vaguely discern was that this scheming was merely incidental and wasn't targeted at him specifically. His gaze shifted to Ao Le, and Lu Qingfeng's mind cleared—

"It seems to be related to the 'Divine Tomb.'"

Within the Divine Tomb are buried hundreds of Immortal Gods, and the causality involved is certainly not trivial.

Previously, controlled and refined by Qin Zhen, the divine intent was restrained and the Heavenly Mechanism hidden, making it difficult to be perceived even by Heavenly Immortal Golden Immortals. But when Lu Qingfeng defeated Qin Zhen and the Spiritual Treasure changed hands, there was no longer any concealment, and it was promptly noticed by others.

"The Immortal Qin, Star Sea, vanished without a trace."

"Perhaps it can't be found."

Lu Qingfeng thought to himself.

But he didn't dare to bet on it.

Just the thought of being schemed against and being on someone's mind momentarily sparked a sense of crisis in him.

He originally thought that being in the Immortal Qin Realm, disregarded by heaven and earth, was an excellent place to be carefree. It was supposed to be a place to cultivate at ease and enjoy an untroubled existence with Ao Le.

But now, it seems.

"I still can't be carefree."

Lu Qingfeng slightly furrowed his brows.

Having just significantly advanced in his cultivation level, Lu Qingfeng's Earth Immortal Fourth Realm abilities were not yet stable, and the gains from lecturing three times had not been fully assimilated. Even though he now occupied the Star Sea Realm, the Earth Immortals within it had already scattered, leaving the realm hurriedly. Therefore, lecturing within would make little difference in enhancing his cultivation level.

With this in mind.

It seems he will have to stay in the Flying Heaven Realm for a long while, unable to make significant strides in a short period.

"This won't do."

"I need to become a Heavenly Immortal soon to guard myself with strength."

Inside the Divine Tomb are buried Immortal Gods of both Earth Immortal and Heavenly Immortal levels, along with those entombed since the Ancient, Remote, and Prehistoric times.

Over the long span of time, those with deep connections able to detect the Heavenly Mechanism of the 'Divine Tomb' so quickly are likely no ordinary beings.

Caution is required.

"Quickly advance my cultivation level—"

Lu Qingfeng thought, his mind whirled, sweeping over the many graves of Immortal Gods in the 'Divine Tomb,' then his eyes caught sight of Green Bamboo Blessed Land, Qingzhu Peak.

A thought stirred within him.

A nascent idea that was previously just a draft resurfaced.

...

Green Bamboo Blessed Land.

Qingzhu Peak.

On a vine, hung a solitary purple-colored precious calabash.

The calabash swayed.

The vine ripened and fell.

Ding Ding Dang Dang!

Out jumped a little toddler cinched with a calabash leaf, dressed in a short purple revealing shirt, looking fresh and tender.

With every step it took, the split purple calabash on the ground flew up and landed on the toddler's head.

Purple Child ascended to heaven.

Plucking the purple calabash from atop its head, it tossed it towards the star-studded sky. Suddenly, the earth shook as if something had changed, yet nothing had changed.

The mortals,

Low-level life spirits,

All remained oblivious.

But within the Green Bamboo Blessed Land, top-tier figures sensed it.

Outside, millennia passed.

Within Green Bamboo Blessed Land, a hundred thousand years had already elapsed.

It was another age of eternity.

The first Great Saint 'Stone Ancestor,' once invincible across ancient times, had gradually been forgotten. A hundred thousand years ago, the second Great Saint 'Pan' cultivated among the stars, and yet, he too could not withstand the passage of time and didn't advance further. In his final days, he returned to the vast earth and passed away amidst the boundless terrain, the earth fire blazing fiercely after his death, yet another forbidden land created.

A hundred thousand years.

Generations pursued relentlessly, with those of extraordinary talent becoming Great Saints, Ten Tribulations True Immortals, and even advancing further to become Five Decays True Immortals.

But ultimately, they couldn't defeat time, one brilliant figure after another inevitably facing death.

Everybody painfully sought for longevity.

To no avail.

However, as time passed, more and more top figures emerged in the world.

Previously, an emperor or Great Saint, Ten Tribulations, or Five Decays level True Immortals were as rare as phoenix feathers or qilin horns, hardly emerging even over tens of thousands of years.

As of today.

They were no longer rare.

On the ground and among the stars, nobody knew exactly how many powerhouses there were.

But visibly, there were already two Great Saints, three Five Decays True Immortals, along with one 'Xuanyuan' realm pinnacle Life Dao Great Power among them.

"Purple Child emerges, blessing the blessed land."

"Within Green Bamboo Blessed Land, time flows ten times faster than the outside; one year outside equates to a hundred years within the blessed land, making the heaven and earth even more stable."

"It's time for the first Little Saint to emerge."

Lu Qingfeng's gaze swept over the eleven top-tier life spirits in the starry sky and the earth, thinking to himself.

He had a plan.

He decided not to intervene.

Letting the heaven and earth choose the first Little Saint.

"Out!"

Purple Child leaped out of the blessed land, followed by six other small children emerging from inside the blessed land or from one of the nine great continents of Immortal Qin, lined up in front of Lu Qingfeng in the Divine Tomb.

"Five Elements."

"Space."

"Time."

Lu Qingfeng looked at the Seventh Level embodiments and pondered.

Whether it's the Immortal Qin Realm or the Star Sea Realm, neither was on the same level compared to the Earth Immortal World. Even the top Immortal Mountains and Spirit Lands of Immortal Qin and Star Sea were nothing compared to a single mountain in the Earth Immortal World.

Not to mention compared to the likes of Yellow Wind Ridge.

Immortals wander.

Longevity is sought, and for those dedicated to rigorous cultivation chasing the Dao, it doesn't matter much.

Like Lu Qingfeng.

Like Ao Le.

Although the process of cultivation might be slower in the Immortal Qin Realm, Lu Qingfeng enjoyed a carefree and joyful life. Originally, he hadn't planned on seeking out the Earth Immortal World any time soon. But now, with an urgent need to advance his cultivation, he suddenly yearned for the Earth Immortal World and the benefits of the Thunder Department General Mansion and Yellow Wind Ridge.

If he were in the Earth Immortal World, his true body could cultivate at Yellow Wind Ridge while sending his seven treasured gourd avatars to cultivate in corresponding locations. For instance, sending the Fire Child to the Saint Infant King's Fire Cloud Cave would undoubtedly increase his cultivation tremendously, possibly a hundred times faster than in the Immortal Qin Realm. But for now, that hope was dashed.

"It seems impossible to return to the Earth Immortal World anytime soon."

The whereabouts of Immortal Qin were unknown.

Unable to find Immortal Qin in the Earth Immortal World or the Earth Immortal World in Immortal Qin, it seemed certain he couldn't return there until he ascended to Heavenly Immortal, barring any unexpected circumstances.

Lu Qingfeng had to consider other alternatives.

"Fortunately,"

"There's still a way back to the 'Earth Immortal World.'"

His gaze fell upon the Blue Child and Purple Child; one born from the essence of Space Dao, and the other from the essence of Time Dao.

Together, they represented the profound and obscure Space-Time Dao.

"With my current Dao and Mana, I temporarily can't traverse Space-Time to return to chaos."

"However, I possess the Great Divine Power: 'Carefree Dream Road,' a method belonging to the Dream Dao Great Method. Combined with the bodies of a thousand immortals from the Divine Tomb, constructing dreams, pinpointing space-time, and tracing back through the powers of space-time to a genuine yet deceptive space-time is not difficult."

Carefree Dream Road!

This was one of Lu Qingfeng's trials to swiftly enhance his cultivation in reality.

Previously,

In the Five Directions Realm, his disciple Ding Yu was critically injured and fell into a deep sleep. Lu Qingfeng relied on the 'Nine layers Building Dream Building Method' to let Ding Yu cultivate in dreams, eventually glimpsing the mysteries of Earth Immortal. Although eventually thwarted by worldly affections, the efficacy of this method was evident.

After enhancing it to a Great Divine Power, the 'Carefree Dream Road' allowed traversal through all heavens, experiencing the True and False Realm, somewhat similar to the practices of the legendary Western Saints.

"Reliance on deception to cultivate truth is still slow."

"With my expertise in the Space-Time Dao, I should be able to understand space-time. While I dare not actually trace back to the past, if I can locate and enter fragments and branches of the Space-Time River isolated in time, locating the ancient Earth Immortal World for further cultivation could progress at Divine Speed."

With just his mastery of the Space-Time Dao, tracing space-time, even just the isolated fragments, was still far from sufficient. But now, he had the Divine Tomb.

With thousand bodies of ages-passed Immortal Gods within the Divine Tomb available for tracing, it greatly simplified the process.

Lu Qingfeng thought through his plan.

This method of cultivation, blurring reality and deception, had the advantage of safety. Should any danger or overpowering foes arise, he could simply withdraw the Divine Power and instantly return to Immortal Qin, escaping without a trace.

"My cultivation has greatly improved; it's time to struggle against others to accrue experience, lest I panic when facing powerful foes in the future."

It wasn't only him.

Ao Le had been long in the Immortal Qin Realm without much experience in combat. Now that Lu Qingfeng controlled the Immortal Qin Realm and was about to conquer the Star Sea Realm, Ao Le, titled 'Empress,' was beyond provocation.

She needed to train far more than Lu Qingfeng.

Deciding in his heart,

Lu Qingfeng then surveyed the 1480 tombs in the Divine Tomb, finally settling on a deeper one—

The Three-tailed Black Fish.

Heavenly Immortal cultivation level.

Once a Demon King of Black Wind Mountain in the Nan Zhanbu Continent, fell during the Great Calamity, its body picked up and buried by Qin Zhen in the Divine Tomb.

"Black Wind Mountain Demon King?"

"You're the one!"

Lu Qingfeng's lips curled up, and he immediately sat down cross-legged.

With Blue Child and Purple Child's avatars standing to the left and right, surrounding the tomb of the Three-tailed Black Fish.

Mysteries erupted, delving deeper.

In a blink,

Ten years had passed.

...

"It's done!"

A quake surged through the Divine Tomb, with Ao Le revealing herself, her eyes expressing joy.

After ten years, she had completely refined over a thousand tombs of Immortal Gods, bringing the 'Divine Tomb' under her control. With daily refining, she would soon master this treasure, capable of rebirth in adversity, ensuring immortality and indestructibility.

While Ao Le refined the Spiritual Treasure,

Lu Qingfeng also opened his eyes—

"It's done!"

His eyes bright and spirited, mysteries flitting across like the vast expanse of a starry sky.

Seeing this,

Ao Le exclaimed in surprise: "Husband, is this—"

Lu Qingfeng didn't keep her in suspense and immediately shared the 'Carefree Dream Road' method, laughing heartily: "After ten years of practicing the method, exploring the vast universe, I have finally found a stable spot."

"Experiencing the real and the false."

"Roaming the vast universe."

"Tracing back in time?!"

Ao Le, hearing this, was suddenly startled: "This method is truly inconceivable!"

"It's just a trick."

"Compared to those Great Powers who can truly traverse space-time, my method is quite laughable."

While Lu Qingfeng's Dao might be inferior, for Earth Immortals and Heavenly Immortals, this method of 'Carefree Dream Road' combined with his proficiency in the Space-Time Dao seemed indeed very promising.

Humble in speech,

Yet somewhat content in heart.

Seeing Ao Le refining the 'Divine Tomb,' Lu Qingfeng was unwilling to delay. He immediately said, "Focus and calm your spirit, I will now use the method, taking you to the Earth Immortal World for cultivation. Perhaps we can even visit the Yellow Wind Ridge from ages past."

"Good."

Interest flickered in Ao Le's eyes.

She closed her eyes in response.

Drawing in her breath and focusing her spirit.

Suddenly, as space-time transformed and the stars trembled, Lu Qingfeng, Ao Le, and the Divine Tomb vanished without a trace.
