At the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly, Gao Xuan defeated many peerless masters. With many practitioners as witnesses, Gao Xuan achieved an invincible reputation.
At this point, the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly should have ended.
Gao Xuan, however, proposed that the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly should continue, so that all the major sects could exchange their cultivation secrets and learn from each other's strengths to overcome their weaknesses.
Although it was a proposal, no one dared to object.
Both the Lord of the North Star and the Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings met a miserable end, proving that this great Taoist master had a bad temper.
Whatever suggestions Gao Daojun makes, they'd better obey and cooperate.
Di Yuan Dao Jun didn't say anything. His Taoism had greatly improved, but he knew that he was still no match for Gao Xuan.
Moreover, Gao Xuan just wanted to see the secret methods of various sects, which was not a big deal.
The secrets of each sect are inherited from the upper three realms and have a long history. The sects have made countless efforts to continuously innovate their own secrets.
Even if a cultivator obtains the secrets of another sect, it is still difficult to start all over again. As for learning from others' strengths and making up for one's weaknesses, it is only a theory.
The more advanced the secret method, the more complicated it is. The practitioners don’t even understand their own secret methods, so how can they make the best use of their strengths and overcome their weaknesses
Of course, for a strong man like him, it never hurts to listen to other people's secret methods.
Diyuan Daojun used to look down on the secret techniques of other sects, but since Gao Xuan wanted to listen, he would not stop him.
As a result, the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly became a true Dharma Assembly for communication.
The strong men from the Qinglian Sword Sect, Shiku Temple, Chunyang Sect, Shenxiao Sect, and thousands of other sects came on stage to explain an extremely important fundamental secret method.
The more than 100,000 cultivators who attended the meeting were all seeing the secret techniques of the sects for the first time. Moreover, the thousands of secret techniques displayed really dazzled the cultivators.
Some talented practitioners often gain insights when they hear the wonderful points, and their cultivation level greatly improves, or even breaks through bottlenecks.
For most low- and middle-level practitioners, this Dharma Assembly is more of a spectacle.
Although you can learn a lot of secret techniques by rote memorization, it is easy to go wrong if you practice these advanced secret techniques without anyone to guide you.
Besides, the worst here is a spiritual immortal. It is not easy to change the cultivation method.
All in all, for most practitioners, this Three Elements Dharma Assembly was extremely lively, enough for them to go back and brag about it for the rest of their lives.
Only some powerful earthly immortals and top geniuses can truly benefit from the communication.
Among them, the ones who benefited the most were undoubtedly Gao Xuan and Diyuan Daojun.
Taoist Master Diyuan had the Book of Earth in his hand, but his previous accumulation was not enough, so he could only open the twelve chapters of the second volume.
Stimulated by Gao Xuan, the Book of Earth was fully opened, and Di Yuan Daojun also saw the upper volume of the Book of Earth.
However, the Earth Book recorded countless information about the Yuantian Realm. Although the Earth Yuan Dao Lord was powerful, he could not interpret even a single bit of it.
That's how it was. Di Yuan Dao Jun also had a deeper understanding of the laws of the Yuan Tian Realm. Comparing the secret methods of various sects, he gained a lot.
Gao Xuan read through the first chapter of the upper volume of the Book of Earth and learned a lot of knowledge about the innate realm.
The other chapters of the Earth Book are of course also valuable, 99% of which are information about the Yuantian Realm, but they are of no use to Gao Xuan.
For Gao Xuan, the most valuable chapter in the Book of Earth is the first one.
The knowledge of these innate realms is mysterious and difficult to understand. Even Gao Xuan, who has the magical powers of the Nine-Turn Divine Cicada and the Nine-Turn Formless, is still unable to unravel the mysteries.
By collecting the secret techniques of various sects, Gao Xuan can learn from the strengths of each and use them to reversely deduce the various mysteries of the innate.
Each sect has a long history and a very impressive background. Many of them are descendants of the Daluo Jinxian.
Even if these secret methods are incomplete, they are enough to benefit Gao Xuan greatly.
After a hundred days, the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly ended.
Gao Xuan brought Lianyi and Bingpo back to Bahuang. Zhongzhou was a land of outstanding people and more prosperous than Bahuang.
However, Zhongzhou is the foundation of the human race's cultivators after all. Thousands of cultivator sects are entangled in a complex network.
Although Gao Xuan is not afraid of these sects, he is unwilling to exploit the spiritual energy of the human race.
The world is vast and has enough space for him to use.
Gao Xuan found a place with the most spiritual energy in the Eight Wildernesses and practiced in seclusion there.
Gao Xuan was not in a hurry to analyze the mysteries of the Xiantian realm. After all, the realms were too far apart, so he decided to walk the path ahead to the end first.
After the battle with Yuan Qinglian, he realized that he still had a lot to learn in swordsmanship.
The Wujian Tianlong Claw, Tianlong Pupil, Juntianxing Divine Wheel and other artifacts were, after all, external objects. No matter how powerful these external objects were, they could not help him achieve the path of a celestial immortal. It was even more impossible for him to achieve the path of a Daluo Jinxian.
If you want to achieve immortality, you must first master one of the three thousand great ways.
This so-called mastery is actually the deepest understanding of the laws of this great way, which can bring out the strongest power.
The immortals monopolized the upper three realms and did not allow new immortals to appear. Their main method was to not allow any living beings to condense the immortal laws.
There are two ways for Gao Xuan to achieve immortality. One is to reach the next level of his innate primordial Taoist body.
Gao Xuan actually had doubts about this.
According to the calculation of the Nine Formless Revolutions, the spiritual energy required to advance the innate primordial Taoist body to the next level is extremely terrifying.
To put it simply, at least the spiritual energy of ten Yuantian realms is needed.
The upper three realms are full of spiritual energy, but if one wants to absorb so much spiritual energy, it will probably attract a large number of celestial beings to besiege him.
Apart from the innate Hunyuan Taoist body, Gao Xuan only has the best chance of becoming a celestial immortal through swordsmanship.
Gao Xuan had mastered the Five Elements and Yin and Yang techniques. However, he was never very good at magic.
Grandmaster-level cultivation is hard-earned. Moreover, there are too many celestial beings in the Yin-Yang and Five Elements. He doesn't know how many powerful enemies he will encounter if he takes this path.
Gao Xuan thought about it and decided that he was quite talented in swordsmanship.
Because the innate Hunyuan Taoist body is a mixture of internal and external primordial elements and involves too many levels, it is extremely difficult to achieve the status of a celestial immortal.
The way of the sword is pure and refined. As long as you truly understand it, you will succeed if you have a chance.
Yuan Qinglian's peerless swordsmanship also had a great impact on Gao Xuan, making him realize the flaws in his own swordsmanship.
He learned Qingye Sword, a skill close to Taoism, and his sword skills were unparalleled in the world.
The Qinglian Sword emphasizes meaning rather than skills. Its sword meaning is extremely superb and better than the Qingye Sword.
The Green Lotus Sword Intent originates from Yuan Qinglian's unique innate spirit. Although Gao Xuan likes the profound Green Lotus Sword Intent, he cannot completely follow Yuan Qinglian's path.
In addition, it is impossible to achieve immortality by following someone else's path.
Gao Xuan pondered deeply, taking out everything he had seen and learned in his life, eliminating the dross and retaining the essence, trying to filter out his own sword art from it.
He felt that he was not a genius in swordsmanship, so he simply used brute force to try to master all the variations of swordsmanship techniques.
The Nine Transformations of the Formless has the ability to deduce all laws. When Gao Xuan's innate Hunyuan Dao body was perfected, the ability of the Nine Transformations of the Formless to deduce and calculate also increased greatly.
On the other hand, Gao Xuan collected thousands of secrets from the Yuantian Realm. With these secrets as model data, the ability to deduce the Nine Transformations of the Formless Form became even stronger.
Gao Xuan used the Nine Turns of the Formless Form to continuously deduce and calculate. He first did addition, putting together all the changes in power he knew and saw.
Then continue to streamline and remove redundant and useless changes.
After a hundred years of deduction, only four styles of the original Water and Sky Sword were left: Ripple, Sky River, Yellow Spring, and Ice Soul.
The ripples are the fastest and most agile, they are piercing; the Milky Way is the strongest and most fierce, it is cutting; the Yellow Springs' transformation from life to death is transformation; the ice soul freezes everything, it is all changed by the sword intent.
These four sword techniques represent the four most basic variations of sword techniques, and have been simplified to the extreme.
As far as these four sword techniques are concerned, they are not inferior to the Green Lotus Sword used that day.
In terms of swordsmanship, Gao Xuan could be said to be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Yuan Qinglian. With his innate Hunyuan Dao body, he would surely win against Yuan Qinglian.
Gao Xuan was not satisfied with this. His opponent was not Yuan Qinglian, but many celestial immortals, Ksitigarbha, and the more powerful Daluo Jinxians.
Being stronger than Yuan Qinglian is not a big deal.
Gao Xuan was very dissatisfied with this result, but the Shuitian Sword, which was based on the Hongyi Sword, had already reached its peak.
No matter how hard Gao Xuan thought, he couldn't think of any other way.
Gao Xuan could only admit that his swordsmanship had reached this point and there was no room for further improvement, unless he made extraordinary progress in other aspects.
He doesn't see this possibility in the short term.
The only consolation is that his swordsmanship has made great progress. With his current sword skills, he should be no less capable than a celestial being.
After all, Yuan Qinglian was an ancient swordsman, who was said to have killed many great celestial beings. Although his cultivation was not good enough, his swordsmanship was still at that level.
Judging by Yuan Qinglian, he should now be called a peerless sword immortal.
Gao Xuan also studied the innate knowledge recorded in the Book of Earth, but gained little.
Because there is too little relevant data, the Nine Transformations of the Formless Form is difficult to deduce.
Gao Xuan made a simple estimate and concluded that it would take him hundreds of thousands of years to figure out the problem.
For earthly immortals, hundreds of thousands of years is not too long. For humans, this time is too long.
Gao Xuan also didn't know whether the time in the heavens and the Milky Way universe was synchronized. The two worlds were too different. Calculated based on the Huangquan World, the time in the heavens was faster than that in the Milky Way world.
Of course, the time in the underworld may not be synchronized with that in the heavens, so this calculation is not accurate.
Gao Xuan has been in the heaven for almost five thousand years. According to his calculations, Yun Qingchang is a god-level body. As long as he maintains a suitable state, such as meditating and retreating for a long time, there will be no problem for him to live for ten or twenty thousand years.
However, we can't wait too long. We also have to consider various changes that may happen in the Galaxy World.
Gao Xuan decided to go back immediately and not wait any longer. Once he got Yun Qingchang back, he could plan everything calmly.
Gao Xuan called Lianyi and Bingpo over and told them to look after the house. If anything happened, just run away. Everything would be settled when he came back.
Lianyi and Bingpo are both reincarnations of sword spirits, and their roots are in the heavens.
Gao Xuan's swordsmanship was not good at first, but he wanted to take them to find Ksitigarbha. Now his swordsmanship has improved greatly, and he no longer needs Lianyi and Bingpo to help him with his swordsmanship.
In fact, because his sword intent is purer, the addition of ripples and ice soul will actually affect his ability to stimulate his sword intent.
With the power of Lianyi and Bingpo, they were not much worse than Yuan Qinglian. Under his guidance, the two of them were able to defeat Yuan Qinglian together.
Because Lianyi and Bingpo were both transformed from sword spirits, they were naturally compatible. This was something that other earthly immortals could never compare to.
With this advantage, Lianyi and Bingpo are enough to protect the Eight Desolations.
After all, Bahuang was his territory, so he couldn't just give it up. It was just right to keep Lianyi and Bingpo to look after the house.
Di Yuan Daojun and Yuan Qinglian were both arrogant, and even if they knew he was not at home, they would not take advantage of the situation to rob him. The rest of the earthly immortals in Yuan Tianjie were not worth mentioning.
The only thing to worry about is Jin Xiang, but he is kind-hearted. Even if he comes for revenge, he won't fight Lian Yi Bing Po.
Gao Xuan and Lianyi Bingpo gave detailed instructions that he would be gone for a few decades at the shortest and tens of thousands of years at the longest, so they could stay at home and not worry.
Gao Xuan explained everything properly, and then he activated the Juntian Star Divine Wheel to open the void.
The Ziwei Star behind the Sun was shining dimly, and the Juntian Star Divine Wheel established a direct connection with the Ziwei Star.
At the same time, Ripples and Ice Soul provide a stable coordinate in the Meta-Heaven Realm.
Gao Xuan determined the coordinates of the Yuantian Realm through three points: himself, Ziwei Star, and Ripple Ice Soul, and also determined the coordinates of Ziwei Star.
Using these two coordinates as base points, Gao Xuan can determine his position at any time and avoid getting lost in the endless void.
It is very difficult to find other heavens in the void, because the void is endless and vast, and although it has vitality, it has no spiritual energy.
If an earthly immortal gets lost in the void, he will slowly die.
Fortunately, Gao Xuan was not going to the upper heaven, he was looking for the underworld.
The Yellow Springs Realm is the lowest level of the heavens and the world of cultivation. The resentment and death energy of billions of living beings all converge into the Yellow Springs and are led into the Yellow Springs Realm.
Even the Underworld cannot digest such a huge force and can only continue to channel it into the abyss.
Gao Xuan couldn't find the way home in the void. He could only find the Yellow Spring Realm first, and then find the world where the Wheel King was. From there he could directly enter the Jiuding Star Region.
Looking down in the void, Gao Xuan could sense the foul aura in the void sinking continuously.
The void is endless, there is no real matter, let alone the sun, moon, and stars, so there is no distinction between up and down, left and right.
For Gao Xuan, the direction where the foul aura was settling was downwards.
With this guidance, Gao Xuan continued to fly downwards. After flying for hundreds of days, Gao Xuan finally sensed the foul and deep aura of the Yellow Springs.
The Underworld is actually not very big. The ten Underworlds combined are not as big as the Yuantian Realm.
However, the Underworld carries all the resentment and death energy that has flowed from the heavens, including the filthy power that has settled in the void.
Gao Xuan only then realized the horror of the underworld. To be more precise, it was the horror of the abyss.
The Yellow Spring Realm could only be considered a floodgate, filtering out some of the less filthy forces and turning them into the Yellow Spring Realm. From Gao Xuan's perspective, the power transformed by the Yellow Spring Realm was insignificant.
Most of the filthy power that had settled in the heavens had entered the abyss.
Gao Xuan stood in the void and looked at the Yellow Spring Realm in front of him. A Yellow Spring ran through the heavens. This penetration was not a true penetration, but was connected by sections of void channels.
Therefore, even he couldn't find the channel where the Yellow Springs flowed, and could only use the clumsy method to find the Yellow Springs Realm.
The Ten Realms of the Yellow Springs were like ten floodgates, filtering out all the dregs flowing through the Yellow Springs and channeling all the most filthy and sinister forces into the abyss.
After such diversion and filtration, the Yellow Spring Water is transformed back into vital energy and returns to the void.
But the power to fight back is only one tenth of what it once was.
In other words, since the creation of the world, the abyss has been absorbing the scattered power from the heavens.
Gao Xuan also achieved enlightenment as an earthly immortal in the Yuantian Realm, and his perspective and insight were very different.
Looking at the underworld and the abyss again at this moment, he realized that something was wrong.
The filthy and evil power will not dissipate on its own. The abyss continues to absorb this power. What will the abyss become
Such a terrifying power, I am afraid that even the Golden Immortal cannot control it. What kind of terrifying monster will be born in the abyss
When Gao Xuan thought about this, his scalp felt a little tingling.
He originally wanted to enter the abyss and fight with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but now he no longer had the desire to compete.
Thinking deeper, he could see that there was something wrong with the abyss, so how could the powerful beings above the Nine Heavens not see it
Normally, the mighty ones in the Nine Heavens should have dealt with it long ago. Now that the abyss is still in that state, I'm afraid that the Daluo Jinxians in the Nine Heavens are also in trouble.
Di Yuan Dao Jun had discussed this issue with Gao Xuan. Although the Polaris King surrendered in battle because he was cowardly and afraid of death, on the other hand, it was actually because there had been no movement in the Heavenly Court for a long time, and he felt from the bottom of his heart that Gao Xuan was the reincarnation of the Purple Star Emperor.
Only in this way can Gao Xuan's supernatural powers be explained!
Di Yuan Dao Jun also gave an example, Jin Xiang. This King Kong Li Wang is a powerful Dharma King of Buddhism. How could he be reincarnated and cultivated again for no reason
This shows that there must be something wrong with the upper bound.
Gao Xuan didn't quite agree with Diyuan Daojun's judgment. Two pieces of evidence couldn't prove anything.
Of course, he also hoped that there would be chaos above the Nine Heavens, so that he would have a chance to rise.
However, these were just idle talk after all. Gao Xuan and Di Yuan Dao Jun didn't take them seriously.
Even if there are changes above the Nine Heavens, they are still a bit far away from them.
When Gao Xuan arrived at the underworld, his thoughts suddenly changed. The situation in the abyss was probably very bad.
Gao Xuan observed outside the Yellow Spring Realm for a long time. He made various backup plans in his mind, and then he flashed into the Yellow Spring Realm.
In the yellow and hazy underworld, there is no sun, moon or stars, and the sky is dark yellow, just like an old yellowed photo.
A huge yellow river is flowing on the earth. Apart from the surging Yellow River, no living creature can be seen on the deep yellow land.
The underworld was filled with a deadly atmosphere. Living beings would naturally feel depressed when staying there.
Even someone as strong as Gao Xuan instinctively frowned. To an earthly immortal, the underworld was too filthy and dirty.
It's like a sophisticated urban white-collar worker suddenly comes to a pigsty in the countryside.
It feels terrible in every way.
Gao Xuan was not afraid of the deathly aura that permeated the Underworld. He also instinctively hated this place.
Although Gao Xuan tried his best to restrain his breath, the energy in him was incompatible with this world.
The Five Elements' Formless Divine Light operates spontaneously, expelling all the foul air.
The five elements' formless divine light circulated, and when it came into contact with the deathly energy of the Underworld, white mist rose up.
Gao Xuan was like a spark of fire in the darkness. Although it was faint, it was incompatible with the darkness and was extremely eye-catching.
Gao Xuan didn't care. He didn't want to go to the abyss, but if Ksitigarbha dared to come to the underworld, he wouldn't mind fighting him.
Once you reach the underworld, it is easy to find the underworld where the Chakravartin is. Just follow the flowing underworld water down to the bottom.
He first met the old turtle in the Yellow Spring water. It is quite interesting to think about it now.
Gao Xuan flashed into the Yellow Springs River, and in a flash, he was submerged by the surging river water.
Not long after Gao Xuan disappeared in the Yellow Spring River, a huge black figure emerged from the ground. He was ugly and had thick nostrils, and he kept moving forward along the breath until he came to the Yellow Spring River. Looking at the turbulent Yellow Spring River, his face showed a deep look of doubt.
At the same time, in the depths of the abyss, a black monster that looked like a giant dog pricked up its long ears.
Its eyes slowly opened in the darkness, and in its red pupils, a small Taoist figure appeared.
The black figure sitting next to the monster also opened his eyes. He looked into the eyes of the monster next to him and let out a low growl.
The entire abyss vibrated with the low roar, and countless strange creatures in the abyss trembled at the same time. Then they stared with red eyes and let out bursts of sharp wails upwards.
