Longevity begins with Zongmen handyman

Li An's return caused a huge stir among the top leaders of Daozong.

Over the years, foreign lands and strange creatures have been the focus of Daozong's attention. However, although Daozong obtained a lot of information and even arranged for Qiao Rumu and others to sneak into foreign lands with Yunqian during the war, so far, No one has returned, and no news has been heard.

Therefore, Li An, the living witness, is so important to Daozong!
He was taken into the main hall, and almost all the senior officials in the door were there.

Li An glanced at it, but many familiar figures were missing. Now there were less than ten immortals left in the Dao Sect!

Kuyuanzi, Taiqingzi, Su Yebai, etc., as well as several corpse-resolving immortals.

Other peak masters, such as Xiang Yuntian, Song Qingsong and others, have not reached the level of immortality. In addition, there are also some new faces, such as Zhenxie Peak, Demon Ancestor Peak, Tianhuo Peak and other peaks have been replaced by new people, and their cultivation levels are also mixed. , both Mahayana and Tribulation.

Li An suddenly understood why Daozong had shrunk in these years. With the current strength of Daozong, it was impossible for him to dominate the world and prevent all the heroes in the world from becoming immortals as before.

It can even be said that the current immortal-level beings of the Dao Sect lag far behind the forces at the same level as the Brahma Sect and the Five Elements Sect!

Ku Yuanzi and others sat upright and asked Li An about the situation in the foreign land.

Li An had already made preparations. According to what he said, when Fairy Mountain Island was destroyed, he was kidnapped by people from a foreign land and brought back to the Yi family. He worked as a slave in the Yi family for a period of time, responsible for growing blood food, etc. , this time the foreign land came again, and he found an opportunity to escape.

He focused on describing the situation in the foreign land, including the arrival of the foreign land, the current distribution of forces in the foreign land, the attempt on the spiritual world, etc.

The hall was extremely quiet, and everyone's expressions were extremely heavy, even with a hint of despair.

The main thing is that this time Li An went to a foreign land and brought back more complete information than what they had obtained before.

Dao Zong had previously analyzed many things in the depths of the South China Sea. There may have been great changes in the immortal world. There may have been a big problem in the heaven in the past, but now everyone really understands the ins and outs...

It turns out that the heaven has collapsed countless years ago, and the fairy world has been completely occupied by weirdness!

Moreover, the Immortal Realm is really too powerful.

A mere Yi clan already has a Celestial Immortal-level being in charge. There are quite a few such forces in Zixiao Prefecture, and in the huge spiritual world, the strongest cultivator at present is only True Immortal Yun Qian.

How to resist?

"Preparing to treat my spiritual beings like pigs in captivity... Haha, what a big spirit, what a big spirit!"

"People work as swordsmen, and I work as fish and meat...What kind of golden world, it turns out, is it just raising pigs in the Immortal World?"

"What happened in heaven...why is this happening?"

Everyone roared unwillingly and doubtfully.

Lies don't hurt, the truth is the sharpest weapon. Li An knew in his heart that what he said might have a more serious impact on Daozong than the great defeat of that year.

He made everyone in Daozong clearly understand the fact: resistance is useless!

From the beginning, Daozong's resistance line was completely wrong and made no sense. On the contrary, the mysterious method and subsequent escape plan proposed by Taiqingzi early in the morning were much more practical.

"Well, according to recent news, those creatures who have returned from foreign lands are currently building their own fairy city in the spiritual world... It seems that this is part of the foreign lands' massive attack on the spiritual world."

But Ku Yuanzi opened his mouth.

Decades ago, when the foreign land manifested again, many immortals who went to the foreign land returned. These returning immortals were extremely powerful, far superior to the immortals in the spiritual world. Moreover, they occupied famous mountains and rivers and established their own The fairy city has recruited a large number of geniuses to preach!

Daozong has been paying attention. According to the intelligence, what these immortals are doing seems to be to inherit the immortal lineage from a foreign land!
Those immortals have gained great opportunities in foreign lands, but if they want to reach higher realms, such as true immortals, mysterious immortals, etc., they need to establish a Taoist place corresponding to the foreign realm in the spiritual world, and wait for the world to change again and a higher immortal way. Taoism will come, and the owners of these fairy cities will receive greater blessings and move to a higher realm!

Now we can infer based on various information mentioned by Ang Lee...

This is the foreign land preparing for its complete arrival!
"They occupy the famous mountains and rivers to attract the fortunes of heaven and earth. If I guess correctly, maybe they are aiming at...the way of heaven?"

"Yes, this is the only explanation. The strength of the foreign realm is far beyond our expectations. Those who are still alive in the spiritual world are simply because of the obstruction of heaven and the rejection of foreign spirits. Therefore, this is the last obstacle to their arrival!"

"Are we just going to watch these traitors destroy the foundation of heaven that the creatures in the spiritual world rely on for their survival?"

Everyone looked extremely worried and gritted their teeth.

"We need to consider this matter in the long term. This information about Li An is a great contribution to our Dao Zong. According to the Dao Zong's order, he will be promoted to the supreme elder."

Ku Yuanzi suddenly spoke.

Everyone is surprised.

Li An couldn't help but be startled.

In his expectation, even if Daozong believed his words, he should investigate him in every possible way. After all, he had returned from a foreign land, who knew if he was a spy?

However, Ku Yuanzi actually directly gave him such an honor...

too much...

This is the highest honor and status in Daozong.

Although today's Dao Sect is not as good as before and is on the verge of decline, it is still extremely difficult to reach this point.

"Congratulations, Mrs. Li!"

"Congratulations!"

In the main hall, many peak leader-level figures stood up and saluted. Song Qingsong and other acquaintances had extremely complicated eyes.

Li An was once imprisoned by Dao Zong in Xuangui Peak. He later escaped and was a disciple of Dao Zong when he returned. Later, because the demon seed was taken away, he enjoyed the treatment of Dao disciples, and later became an elder of Evergreen Peak. Now...he has become the Supreme Elder.

Thousands of years later, Li An's status was so much higher than them.

"Too powerful!"

Xiang Yuntian was overjoyed and very happy about this.

"Elder Li just returned to Daozong, let's go and rest first -"

Ku Yuanzi smiled slightly and said.

Immediately, Li An saluted the other Supreme Elders and left with Xiang Yuntian and others.

In the main hall, other immortals also left, leaving only Kuyuanzi and Taiqingzi.

"Master, with Li An's cultivation level, it's inappropriate to become a Supreme Being... right?"

Taiqingzi asked in a low voice.

Ku Yuanzi said: "This is the Dao Zong order we issued. He returned from a foreign land and brought back so much important information, so it is natural that he should honor it."

"Besides, a person who has gone deep into a foreign land and has gained the trust of the Yi family can still return to the Taoist sect, which shows his sincerity. The time has come and gone, which shows that although Li An was born in the demonic way, he is indeed worthy of our Taoist sect. disciple!"

Taiqingzi continued: "How can master be sure that there is no instruction from the Yi family behind Li An's return? Since the major forces in foreign lands want to compete for the territory of the spiritual world, maybe Li An's return will be a son of the Yi family in advance. .”

Ku Yuanzi stood up, smiled, and said, "It doesn't matter."

"Taiqing, since our Dao Sect has decided to fight with all our strength, what difference does it make whether the Yi family or another force will occupy the ruins of Dao Sect?"

"Besides, don't you think it would be better if Li An was really an enemy spy?"

Taiqingzi was stunned and puzzled.

"Didn't you say that sneaking into foreign lands is the way for Dao Zong to survive? The two chess pieces you played were Shangguan Xiaoxiao and Jun Yelin. It's a pity that Jun Yelin didn't take care of it. Now only Shangguan Xiaoxiao is left."

There was a sad and tired look in Ku Yuanzi's eyes: "If Li An really surrenders to the Yi family and acts as a spy for the Yi family, we will give him a big gift and let him establish a firm foothold in a foreign land. In this way, it will make up for it." The gap where you came at night."

Taiqingzi suddenly understood.

Until now, Kuyuanzi... obviously agreed with Taiqingzi's route back then.

This is why he is willing to let Li An become the Supreme Elder!

If Li An is truly sincere and loyal to Daozong, then he certainly deserves this honorable position.

If Li An is a spy of the Yi family, that's fine. They regard Li An as a chess piece hidden in the mystery, give Li An status, and even give the land of Daozong to Li An in the future to let him use it as a pawn. Applying for a certificate of recognition can help Ang Lee stand firmer in a foreign land.

"Li An's ambition and city are much stronger than Jun Yelin. If I say it, you chose the wrong person back then."

Ku Yuanzi was full of exhaustion, but he pretended to smile relaxedly.

Tai Qingzi couldn't help but be speechless. He suddenly remembered a conversation he had with Shangguan Xiaoxiao back then...

At that time, Shangguan Xiaoxiao asked him what kind of person he was looking for.

He once replied: "Find a strong man who can practice magic and still walk alone in the darkness, who is tough to the point of ruthlessness, forbearing to the level of cold-bloodedness, and wise to the level of evil..."

Obviously, Jun Yelin is not such a person.

What about Ang Lee?
Is he? ?

Taiqingzi's heart suddenly turned around after hearing Ku Yuanzi's words. If this was really the case, then it might be better for Li An to hide in the darkness.

He and Shangguan Xiaoxiao have a deep love, and they can support each other and hide the darkness together.

He and Xiang Yuntian have a deep brotherly relationship, so they can treat each other with sincerity and never forget Taoism.

For a moment, Li An was like a beam of light in his heart, illuminating instantly!

Could it be that the responsibility for the Dao Sect's eternal affairs and survival will fall on Li An in the end?
He had mixed feelings in his heart for a while, which he never expected.

For many years, Li An has actually not had much sense of presence within the Dao Sect. In terms of talent, he is far inferior to Xiang Yuntian and others; in terms of status, he lags far behind his peers, and is only the elder of Changqing Peak; in terms of cultivation, he is even more It's just a matter of harmony... "Destiny, destiny!"

He sighed!
"Thank you Master..."

He stood up, looked at Ku Yuanzi with some excitement, and bowed deeply.

For many years, he has been making plans in this area without telling Ku Yuanzi, because he knows that Ku Yuanzi is a true defender of the Tao and is sworn in with the devil. But now Ku Yuanzi has exposed him. , and helped his plan take a big step forward!

Ku Yuanzi's old face was full of exhaustion, and he said with emotion: "I am a pedantic person, but everything I have done in this life is for the survival of the Taoist sect, and I have never had any selfish motives."

"Now that the overall situation has been decided, let the young people have a try. I am old, and those who are about to die...should also make way."

He closed his eyes and seemed to have made a deep reconciliation with his stubborn self.

"The disciples will arrange for Elder Li to record the Dao Sect's classics one by one... Whatever he wants, I will give him."

What is given to Li An now is that he may be able to stay in the future and have the opportunity to reappear in the world after going through the fire.

……

"I see……"

After leaving the main hall, Li An learned from Xiang Yuntian that Dao Zong had issued a Dao Zong Order a few years ago. If any disciple could enter a foreign land and find out the enemy's situation and return, he could be promoted directly to the Supreme Elder.

It's a pity that the foreign land is difficult and dangerous, and Dao Sect naturally has many brave disciples who go there, but they can't find the way. Even if they get in by chance, they just go to the fairy city set up by the people from the foreign land, and they can't come into contact with the strange ethnic groups in the foreign land, let alone Did you bring back any useful information?

Now it seems that just what Li An learned from the gatekeeper Yi Wei when he was imprisoned in Yi's compound is extremely important information to Daozong.

Li An's return was in response to this Taoist order, so it was logical for him to ascend to the throne of Supreme Elder.

"I never expected that, old turtle, he seemed to be crawling slowly, but he reached the top in the blink of an eye... Hahahaha!"

Xiang Yuntian was very happy. He held a banquet with wine at Xia Jian Peak that day. Gu Shanye and An Li were naturally there too. During the gathering, everyone was having a good time drinking.

Gu Shanye and Xiang Yuntian have both reached the stage of overcoming the tribulation. An Li has also caught up again and started preparing to attack Hedao. Generally speaking, they are developing in a good direction.

"By the way, how come there are so few immortals in Dao Sect? Where are Senior Qiao, Patriarch Wangji and the others?"

Li An asked, and his intuition told him that Daozong must have some preparations. During the great defeat, among the immortals of Daozong's generation, only Tianchenzi died in the battle.

"I don't know, only Supreme Master Kuyuan and Supreme Master Taiqing understand..."

Xiang Yuntian shook his head, this matter was truly top secret.

In fact, even Helian Tu Xian, Yun Qian and others have disappeared.

In these years, Daozong has stayed inside and has never gone out to fight. On the one hand, it is difficult to resist the general trend, and on the other hand, it is probably to keep this matter secret.

After all, once there is a big friction and confrontation with the outside world, Daozong's true identity will be easily exposed.

Li An was quite cautious. No matter how he looked at it, Daozong's plot must be huge. So many immortals disappeared together. For this reason, Daozong gave up an unknown amount of benefits. Needless to say, all the immortal cities in Xinzhou changed hands, and even According to Li An's knowledge, Daozhou's territory is gradually being eroded... but he has been enduring it!

"Hopefully it won't affect me."

Li An murmured in his heart.

In addition, over the years, Daozong's internal affairs have also been very different from before.

After experiencing a great defeat and later shrinking back, most of the disciples of Dao Sect were discouraged and very passive and conservative. Moreover, because they could not use immortal materials, the cultivation level of most disciples lagged far behind other forces. one day.

"Lei Tianlan's grandson surrendered to the enemy. When he was on another mission, he joined the Five Elements Sect."

"The master of the temple in Xuzhou led thousands of disciples and established his own school... Haha..."

Daozong's life and death are in danger.

"Dao Zong has built many cross-border ships and is looking for a suitable opportunity to let us leave. We can't stay in the spirit world anymore and flee to the heavens. The way forward is unknown, but I heard that a stable one has been found. The road can lead to a pure land..."

Xiang Yuntian and Gu Shanye recounted the situation over the years with great emotion and sighs.

Of course, it’s not just the Dao Sect, there are other big forces such as the Brahma Sect, etc. Although they look glamorous and brilliant to the outside world, they are actually very nervous and are building a large number of cross-border ships. It is said that some high-level officials have left early to run away. .

This is also the reason why Daozong has declined but has not been targeted and attacked by those forces. Everyone knows that the big one is coming, and they can run away as quickly as possible. Who can care about others.

"Brother Li has become the Supreme Being now. It is really a grand event. Come on, let's have a drink!"

Gu Shanye spoke and raised his glass again.

……

The news that Li An became the Supreme Elder spread throughout Daozong.

After becoming the Supreme Being, he was listed among the most powerful people in Dao Sect. Although his wealth was not high, he still had all the treatment and authority he deserved.

Taiqingzi was very enthusiastic and led him into many top-secret places of Daozong. Li An also gained a new understanding of Daozong.

The various taboo techniques in the world collected by Daozong, the highest immortal scriptures in the Sutra Pavilion, the practice notes left by the emperors and peak masters of various generations, the magic weapons left behind by the immortals when they ascended, etc...

Daozong is worthy of being a great sect!
Taiqingzi said that as a Supreme Being, one must master all Taoist classics, so he specially arranged two years for Li An to familiarize himself with various classics, etc. There are many types of these Taoist canons, and it is naturally impossible for Li An to master them within two years. He understood everything, but what he wanted was for Li An to write it all down.

Ang Lee did not refuse.

Although he possesses the Secret of Nourishing Life and Forging Immortals and does not need other cultivation techniques, the experience and insights of previous people in cultivating immortals, the reflection and comparison of various immortal sutras, etc. will greatly improve a cultivator's vision and understanding. .

You can strengthen your foundation!
In particular, he is looking for talismans, elixirs, formations and other methods everywhere. Once these things reach Hedao, there is no clear and unified inheritance system in the world. They are all understood by the great cultivators themselves. In other places , I can’t find any reference at all.

But Daozong has them all!
The foundation is too profound. In the vast history of Dao Zong, what kind of talents have not appeared?The "Shi Immortal" who uses formations to become immortals, the "Elixir Immortal" who uses elixirs to connect the gods, and even the talisman. Although no one has directly used this method to become an immortal, there have been many old monsters who have gone through the tribulation period. In this Realm still has many insights into the talisman.

These things are very important to him.

Moreover, he can now allocate unlimited Daozong resources, and Li An has no time to spare. He directly asks people to prepare various rare materials for him, refining runes, talisman pens, formation materials, etc.

Even, in order to serve his needs, Daozong built a Taoist temple for him on Tiandao Peak and arranged for the elite disciples he needed to serve, so that he could practice Taoism without worrying about anything else.

It is worth mentioning that he originally only arranged for the two descendants he brought back from Evil Spirit Lake to work as handymen at Evergreen Peak, but after a thousand years, they already have heirs in the sect, and one of them is named Li Qingran. This woman is actually very talented and is already a formal disciple of Dao Sect. This time she was also arranged to be encouraged by Li An.

When Li An saw Li Qingran, he felt slightly relieved.

He actually doesn't have much affection for carrying on the family line, but he thinks that the Li family of Qianshui Yunzhou in Yuanling Realm has been destroyed in the years, and the Li family of Evil Spirit Lake has also been scattered in the sea of ​​people. I don't know if there are still people alive, but now they are here It is a good thing that Daozong has a flower blooming.

Therefore, he was also very interested in Li Qingran, and gave him many classics and secretly gave him a lot of guidance.

……

Li An's life today is excellent, even better than when he had the Taoist genius. He indulges in various Taoist classics every day, immerses himself in cultivation, and feels like he has forgotten time.

Moreover, Tiandao Peak was originally a first-class cave heaven paradise. He also discovered that in addition to absorbing the power of the years, his life seed was also absorbing other powers of creation from Tiandao Peak, making him practice faster.

Time flies, in the blink of an eye, 300 years have passed.

Li An's cultivation has come naturally, and he has broken through to the middle stage of Mahayana!
It took a few hundred years less than he expected.

He also deeply felt that although the life seed could grow and practice with the power of time, the Cave Heaven Paradise... was actually still very important!
"The ninth-level talisman should be worth a try!"

On this day, Li An was finally ready to try the ninth-level runes!

The ninth-level runes correspond to the period of transcending tribulation. The inheritance of runes at this stage is rare in the world, and there is no clear system at all. Li An studied the handbooks of countless masters, and it took him 300 years to come to this realization.

In fact, if he could achieve this kind of realization in 300 years, if he told anyone about it, he would definitely be regarded as a peerless genius in this field.

This was the rebirth of his Life-nurturing Immortal Art. The life-seed was slowly changing his spiritual roots. Later, he obtained the complete Life-nurturing Immortal Art. After being baptized by thunder and calamity, Li An's qualifications soared to the sky. If In terms of spiritual roots, now he is definitely considered the legendary "Heavenly Spiritual Root".

Not weaker than the top group of geniuses in Dao Sect.

What's more, he is a master of both the Dao and the Dao, practicing both strange methods and orthodox immortal ways. As he continues to prove himself, his ability to understand the Dao is also constantly increasing, so he is reaping the rewards very quickly.

If placed in the outside world, it would not be easy to find ninth-level talisman paper and pens. Fortunately, there is no shortage of items within the Dao Sect, and now all of them have been given to Li An.

He held a fiery red vermilion pen, the tip of which was made of the feathers of ninth-level alien beasts, and was submerged into the spiritual ink made from the liquid of creation and the cinnabar of the avenue. After absorbing the ink, it fell on the pen made of the cave sky smoke and clouds. Amazing traces were outlined on the talisman paper.

With every stroke, there is a sense of a shortcut, and the rhythm of the Tao comes from itself!

This is the way of the ninth level talisman.

The ninth-level talisman is the pinnacle of the world. If you go higher, you will become an immortal and overcome the tribulation, and the heaven will grant you the talisman.

It took Li An 300 years to absorb the theory and internalize it in his heart, and it took another 150 years just to practice the talisman and indulge in making talismans!

After 150 years and massive resource consumption, he finally made the first ninth-level talisman - the Sky Fire Talisman!

The Sky Fire Talisman, as its name suggests, was once a master of the Sky Fire Peak who was in the tribulation period. He sensed the fire of heaven and earth and obtained it accidentally. It contains the true meaning of the fire of the five elements in creation. When the Sky Fire Talisman falls, it is like a fire rising from the sky. Zhang Fu has the power to destroy an entire continent!

Li An was extremely pleased!

"Your Majesty, Miss Li Nianxue from Demon Ancestor Peak has been waiting for you outside for ten years and has always wanted to see you."

When he came out of seclusion, his descendant Li Qingran Shi Shiran came forward to report.

Li An's heart moved, Li Nianxue?
Li Yunxiao and Tan Qingxue...no, with the daughter of an unknown banshee, what was she doing to come to him?
……

Good night. (end of this chapter)
