Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds-Chapter 683 - 347, The Life and Death Tribulation descends, starting to solidify the immortal fate of the Seven Qixi Heavenly Monarch_2
Xu Xing mused to himself. If the Tribulation Crossing fails, then I can only first try to comprehend the Devouring Dao Principle and attempt to follow the old path of Mao Ri Sage Monarch...
Xu Xing retrieved the two Bicephalous Pupils left by Mao Ri Sage Monarch from his Storage Bag. Looking at the complex patterns within them, he thought, Mao Ri Sage Monarch's path is actually a feasible one: use the Devouring Dao Principle to devour cultivators of the Seven Stars Sect who have advanced to Sage Monarch, plunder the Trained Immortal Qi within their bodies, convert it into one's own Longevity Immortal Energy, and thereby achieve eternal life. With sufficient Longevity Immortal Energy, it's not impossible to forcibly pass the Life and Death Tribulation and break through the Physical Body Barrier. Of course, I wouldn't need to devour the Trained Immortal Qi of newly promoted Sage Monarchs; I only need to devour the Trained Immortal Qi produced by the solidification of the Bronze Ancient Mirror's [Dao Fruit].
When undergoing the Life and Death Tribulation, he would begin to solidify his primary Immortal Fate, [Seven Heavenly Lords], attempting to deduce his destiny while simultaneously glimpsing his true self to successfully pass the tribulation.
Xu Xing, having experienced so many Fate Deductions, already knew their profound mysteries. In Fate Deduction, he wouldn't perish in a realm corresponding to his Immortal Fate. That is to say, by initiating the Fate Deduction for the Nascent Soul Stage, he would possess an undying body before crossing the Refining Void Realm. And in the initial stages of Fate Deduction, every frame, every image, is extremely detailed.
In other words, once Fate Deduction was initiated during the Life and Death Tribulation, Xu Xing would have a reference point for his own tribulation, significantly reducing its difficulty. This was also why Xu Xing had insisted on delaying until now to attempt solidifying the [Seven Heavenly Lords] Immortal Fate and begin his first Fate Deduction of the Nascent Soul Stage.
After considering everything, Xu Xing no longer hesitated. He formed a seal with both hands and began to detonate the death qi within his Longevity Immortal Energy.
One day passed, then two.
「About half a month later.」
Death qi spread over Xu Xing's body. His skin began to slacken, growing wrinkled like chicken skin with hair as white as a crane's, making him appear like an old man of seventy, well into his twilight years.
However, this aged appearance didn't last long. Xu Xing soon transformed into a chubby, fair-skinned three-year-old infant, his loose blue robe weighing down directly upon him.
「Two days later.」
Xu Xing returned to his youthful appearance.
These three forms—old age, youth, and infancy—began to continuously alternate on Xu Xing's Dao Body, cycling back and forth.
One year of flourishing, one year of decline... Xu Xing sighed. Each transformation from old age to infancy is a death for me. It's only because of the Longevity Immortal Energy that my Dao Body doesn't completely perish...
The Nine Tribulations to become Immortal are both calamities and opportunities for cultivators. Without the life-and-death tribulations, Longevity Immortal Energy would not be born. Similarly, without the tempering of the Life and Death Tribulation, cultivators cannot meet the requirement of transforming the Nascent Soul into the Primordial Spirit. The nine tribulations are also a continuous cultivation process for Nascent Soul Cultivators, leading them to become Immortals.
Now, I shall start solidifying my Immortal Fate and look for the opportunity to glimpse my true self...
Xu Xing's eyes were tightly closed, his consciousness immersed in the Bronze Ancient Mirror. With a thought, he began to activate the [Dao Fruit] to solidify the Five Elders' Immortal Destiny, [Seven Heavenly Lords], in the [Immortal Fate] column.
[Seven Heavenly Lords (Five Elders): Lesser Lord's Original Destiny, Child of the Phoenix, Upper Divine Rank. As a divine spirit, you have the potential to control the Innate Seven Qi.]
「Time passed...」
As the main Immortal Fate solidified, the vast, ocean-like Magic Power in Xu Xing's Dantian was rapidly consumed, pouring into the Bronze Ancient Mirror. The Magic Power consumed in a single breath, by Xu Xing's estimation, was comparable to the entire Magic Power reserves of an ordinary Dao Pill Cultivator. If he weren't a Nascent Soul Cultivator, such immense Magic Power consumption would likely have sucked him completely dry.
"Condense!"
Seeing his Magic Power about to be exhausted, Xu Xing's brow furrowed. He glanced at the outside world and uttered a soft cry. This soft cry resounded like a clap of spring thunder within the Seven Stars Sect Cave. In an instant, countless Spiritual Energy gathered, coalescing into dew, which arrived by Xu Xing's side and was absorbed by him.
The process of Magic Power consumption continued for over a year and a half. It was only in the second year that the Six Commandments Immortal Order [Great Sun Emperor], which stood firm in the [Dao Fruit] column of the Bronze Ancient Mirror, began to slowly dissipate.
Seeing this familiar scene, Xu Xing was well-prepared; this was the first Fate Deduction of his Nascent Soul Stage about to commence.
"Starfall Sect, Nascent Soul formation..."
"Secluded cultivation at Chongzhen Temple, assisting Buxu Zi in killing three demon repairs of the same realm..."
"Afterward... the Nanhua Sect's confrontation with the Flying Feather Immortal Palace, seizing the title of Orthodoxy..."
"Nanyan Continent's Emperor's Son Pavilion, Elder Jiu Ling, the Louhai Secret Realm..."
Xu Xing looked up. In an instant, images began to appear before him, like a revolving lantern.
His memories flashed by: condensing his Nascent Soul in the Starfall Sect; the start of demon extermination at Chongzhen Temple; returning to Fengxi Country to eliminate Huan Shideng and pay respects to his deceased wife; going to the Nanhua Sect to seize the title of Orthodoxy from the Flying Feather Immortal Palace; evading Chi Yuan's pursuit while accompanied by Dai Ji to Nanyan Continent; and joining forces with Yan Luanqing to serve in the Emperor's Son Pavilion.
After obtaining the Yuan Shen Pill from the Emperor's Son Pavilion, he went into secluded cultivation in Cangyun Continent for his breakthrough, becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator. Subsequently, he returned to Nanyan Continent, parted ways with the Immeasurable Sect, and after returning to the Butian Sect, he killed Mao Ri Sage Monarch.
These were his memories after solidifying the Six Commandments Immortal Order [Great Sun Emperor].
The Nascent Soul First Realm also has its share of helplessness... Xu Xing shook his head and sighed.
After reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, as long as he avoided cultivators from the Chiming Dynasty, he could roam invincible in the Human Realm. But great power didn't mean everything would go his way. The "betrayal" of the Starfall Sect and Wu Miao's departure were rude awakenings for him.
Even Immortals have troubles. This way, they are human, not ruthless cultivators who merely control power... Xu Xing shook his head.
The Immortal Path was long. Acquaintances from the mortal realm, East Huangzhou, and Nanyan Continent had left indelible marks on his heart. But these were merely sights along the journey; they couldn't affect his state of mind or hinder his pursuit of the Dao.
Sometimes, regret is also a kind of beauty. The Great Unrestrained Heart Realm was essentially this.
It begins...
Xu Xing collected his thoughts and looked at the emptiness before him. When the memory images paused, the deduction of a corner of his future destiny began.
Various images started to emerge.
...
...
In the 823rd year of Tiande, Xu Xing glimpsed the mystery of the Life and Death Tribulation, found his true self, broke through the Physical Body Barrier, and successfully passed the tribulation.
「Fifteen years later.」
Xu Xing's Nascent Soul transformed into a Primordial Spirit, making him a true Nascent Soul Cultivator. His strength in the Human Realm was enough to command respect, unparalleled for a time.
In the 842nd year of Tiande, Xu Xing handed over the affairs of the Butian Sect to Zuoqiu Ying and began searching for a way to ascend to the Chiming World in East Huangzhou. Unless absolutely necessary, Xu Xing didn't intend to rely on the Emperor's Son Pavilion to travel to the Chiming World.
While searching for a method of ascension, the Earth Dragon advanced to the fourth rank. Xu Xing rushed back to the Butian Sect to help the Earth Dragon successfully break through in seclusion. Delayed for twenty-three years, the Earth Dragon entered the fourth rank, grew four claws, and became a true Flood Dragon.
During this period, Xu Xing learned the "Mystery of Ascension" of the Flying Feather Immortal Palace from Zhongtai Dao Monarch and others, and searched for the "Immortal Ascension Secret Realm" where Qingzheng Daoist had gone back then. From the previous Fate Deduction, Xu Xing already knew the "Immortal Ascension Secret Realm" was at Bronze Mountain. Unlike the previous Fate Deduction where he went to Bronze Mountain to search for "Immortal Relics," this time Xu Xing went to the "Immortal Ascension Secret Realm" intending to find a Spatial Channel to ascend to the Chiming World from within it. Xu Xing suspected that the Immortal Ascension Secret Realm at Bronze Mountain connected to the Chiming World.
Unfortunately, however, Xu Xing's trip to Bronze Mountain this time still yielded no results. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
With no other choice, Xu Xing had to set off for Nanyan Continent, planning to ascend to the Chiming World through the Emperor's Son Pavilion.
In the 893rd year of Tiande, Xu Xing, using the Earth Dragon's "Mimic Dragon Swimming in the Sea," found the Dragon Vein Dragon Lair leading to Nanyan Continent and returned there.
Over three hundred years later, when Xu Xing returned to Nanyan Continent, Yan Luanqing, who had been in secluded cultivation in the Yishen Palace Cave, had already broken through to the Nascent Soul First Realm a hundred years prior, becoming a Nascent Soul Saint Monarch.
After meeting Yan Luanqing, Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing began preparations for ascending to the upper realm.
In the 913th year of Tiande, Xu Xing, Yan Luanqing, and a group of Nascent Soul Cultivators from the Emperor's Son Pavilion passed through a Cross-State Teleportation Array and "ascended" to the Chiming World.
Just as in the previous deduction, Xu Xing didn't pledge allegiance to the King of Chu to become a Retainer; instead, he chose to be a Freelance Cultivator.
Through the previous Fate Deduction, Xu Xing had already learned that besides the cultivation methods for the latter three realms, one could also break through those realms by using "Immortal Relics."
