Chapter 479: The Supreme Being’s Purpose, the God Transformation Experiment

"Ancestor, why are we in such a hurry to go to Jiushan Sect? What's the purpose?"

A purple cloud crossed the sky from Tai Shang Dao. In the cloud, Li Shangxian was in front, followed by Mingde Shouzuo and others. There were seven people in total, even the old man who had transformed into a spirit came with them.

"You don't know?"

Li Shangxian was stunned, as if he was even more surprised than them.

The six people in Mingde’s chief seat all shook their heads.

Li Shangxian patted his forehead and said in a very skilled manner: "I forgot to tell you again."

...I really forgot.

Master Mingde glanced at the old man's incarnation and thought to himself, "No wonder Master Xuanding asked so many people to accompany Master Li..."

This Grandmaster Li has been in the sect for more than ten years, and everyone has almost figured out his nature:

To put it nicely, it means a mind free of worldly thoughts.

To put it bluntly, it's called forgetfulness.

As for the master's problem, he would not delay major matters, but he would often forget small things.

Because of this, Patriarch Li was originally unwilling to bring so many incarnations of gods, and even wanted to bring only Master Mingde. But Patriarch Xuanding seemed to be worried, and arranged six incarnations of gods as assistants for him, saying that they should assist Patriarch Li in negotiating with Zheng Fa.

The main purpose is to remind the ancestor not to forget something when the time comes.

But they are almost at the Hundred Immortals Alliance, and they still don’t know what to talk about, let alone give reminders.

At first they didn't dare to ask, but when Master Mingde saw the Nine Mountains Realm in sight, he finally couldn't bear the doubts in his heart and asked.

Li Shangxian thought for a while and explained to them: "Our goal is to form an alliance with Zheng Fa. At least we must have an undisclosed understanding to deal with Hao Ri Mountain together."

Chief Monk Mingde was stunned for a moment, thinking that this idea was a change from the sect’s previous attitude towards the Jiushan Sect.

Tai Shang Dao was naturally optimistic about Zheng Fa before, but to be honest, he still regarded himself as a bystander.

Especially after the fight between Jiushan Sect and Haori Mountain, although Master Mingde secretly provided some information, it seemed that the ancestor wished that the two would fight even more fiercely, while Tai Shang Dao only wanted to stay out of it.

I will never talk about taking the initiative to conclude an alliance.

He was stunned for a long time and guessed: "Is it because of Haori Mountain?"

Li Shangxian nodded slightly, frowned and said, "It's because of Immortal Lu from Haori Mountain."

"Because he wants to become a Golden Immortal?"

"Not only that, he achieved the Golden Immortal in Leiyin Temple." Li Shangxian shook his head and said, "My Supreme Dao and Leiyin Temple have been fighting for several epochs, but now we are just one step behind, and they have taken advantage of us."

"Lu Zhenxian from Haori Mountain..."

He seemed to be a little afraid when he was halfway through speaking, so he stopped talking and continued, "This matter concerns the outcome of this calamity for both Buddhism and Taoism. In comparison, the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor of Tianhe Sect is a minor matter."

Upon hearing this, Master Mingde and the others were all shocked, obviously unaware of the hidden truth.

"How could Immortal Lu alone determine the outcome of the battle between the Supreme Dao and the Leiyin Temple?"

Li Shangxian looked in the direction of Haori Mountain and shook his head, saying, "This is the decree that Xuan Ding Patriarch received from Dao Zun. It can't be wrong."

"What's more...Lu Zhenxian is definitely not a simple person."

"Ok?"

Li Shangxian thought for a moment and said to the other six people:

"In the first two eras, the one with the highest talent was Venerable Tianhe."

“But if we talk about great perseverance… I’m afraid it’s this First Ancestor of Haori Mountain. Even this person’s talent is probably not inferior to that of Tianhe Reverend.”

Upon hearing Immortal Li Shangxian's evaluation, Master Mingde felt a heavy heart unconsciously.

The Nine Nether Demon Ancestor has set up the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, which have made the Xuan Ding Ancestor exhausted to deal with.

Unexpectedly, in the words of Li Shangxian, this Lu Zhenxian of Haori Mountain is the biggest worry.

It actually required the Supreme Dao to humble himself and take the initiative to seek an alliance with Zheng Fa.

The situation in the Xuanwei Realm is becoming increasingly complicated.

Thinking of this, Master Mingde thought of another thing and asked, "But what does this have to do with Zheng Fa?"

Li Shangxian glanced at him, and seemed to see that he was a little worried about Zheng Fa, and said calmly:
"Now the fetal membrane of heaven and earth has not disappeared, and the Golden Immortal has not entered the Mysterious Mystery. Zheng Fa was able to kill Luo Sanxian. No matter what means he used, his strength is now at the top of this world."

Master Mingde nodded slightly.

Achievements are above all else.

At this special moment in time, Zheng Fa is indeed qualified to be on equal footing with the four sects.

It is not a loss of face for the Supreme Dao to want to form an alliance with it.

"But...can he solve the problem of Lu Zhenxian?"

"I don't know if he can do it, but in the past two eras of my Supreme Dao, there have been no geniuses."

Upon hearing this, the old man laughed and said, "Grandmaster, you are too modest. Not to mention the Grandmaster Xuanding and others who achieved enlightenment in the last era, you are the one who achieved enlightenment in this era. Your talent is so great that it surpasses Xuanwei, but it is not known to outsiders."

Li Shangxian glanced at him and sneered, "Someone like me can be used to show off. Doesn't that prove that I am the Supreme Dao and no one else is around?"

"My Supreme Dao and Leiyin Temple are equally powerful. Now Leiyin Temple has a new Immortal Lu, but my Supreme Dao does not have such a person. How can we win in the future?"

"..."

He sounded like he was scolding himself, and no one dared to respond.

Seeing them hesitating, Li Shangxian couldn't help but shake his head and said, "The most important thing is that Zheng Fa seems to be able to prevent Lu Zhenxian from becoming a Taoist."

"How do you start this?"

"At the beginning, we didn't know this either. We were just a little confused as to why Hao Ri Mountain was so against Jiu Shan Sect."

"Isn't it for the Fuso tree?"

"It's for the Fusang tree, but not just that, there seems to be another purpose." Li Shangxian said here, and couldn't help but sigh again, and said softly, "This Lu Zhenxian has great ambitions, especially now is the critical moment for his enlightenment. With his temperament, he shouldn't be so impatient, and we have noticed his strangeness. Haori Mountain must have a reason for doing this."

His words were unclear, and Master Mingde became even more puzzled, but he also understood a little:
The sect wanted to befriend Zheng Fa, but in fact, it still wanted Jiushan Sect to deal with Haori Mountain. To be more precise, it wanted Zheng Fa to deal with Lu Zhenxian.

However, even the Supreme Daoists were afraid of Lu Zhenxian from Haori Mountain... so he was naturally even more dangerous to Zheng Fa.

There was a hint of worry between his brows, and Li Shangxian seemed to see it and laughed: "This time I want to go and see Zheng Fa's transformation into a god, just to see if he has the ability."

Master Mingde understood.

It is very difficult for cultivators to hide their strength when they are going through a tribulation. Patriarch Li wanted to go and see, of course, because he didn't know whether Zheng Fa could help them deal with Immortal Lu, and he wanted to confirm it.

If Patriarch Li felt that Zheng Fa could really help, then Tai Shang Dao would naturally not hesitate to win over the Jiushan Sect, and would even be willing to support one or two of them.

If you think Zheng Fa's future achievements will be limited, then that's hard to say.

……

As they were talking, it took only half an incense stick of time for them to arrive at the Nine Mountains Realm.

The old man, along with Uncle Master Pang and Uncle Master Huang, were waiting on the top of a hill.

Seeing the sunset, everyone from the Jiushan Sect bowed and saluted:
"I have met the Supreme Dao Immortal."

Li Shangxian's attitude was gentle, and he didn't put on airs: "Master, you are polite."

The old man explained: "My disciple has been in seclusion, and I really have no time to come to greet you, the Immortal. I hope you will forgive me."

"I was abrupt."

Uncle Pang and Uncle Huang looked at each other and thought, do you know that you are being abrupt?

They were indeed somewhat puzzled and even wary as to why, knowing full well that Zheng Fa did not have time, Immortal Li still wanted to come to the Nine Mountains Realm and was so determined in his attitude.

After a discussion, several people agreed to this matter:
The Jiushan Sect is not strong enough and has offended Haori Mountain, so it would be difficult for them to offend Taishang Dao again.

They even have a practical need to make friends with Tai Shang Dao, and it would be difficult to turn him away if he repeatedly requests.

The fact that Abbot Mingde is friendly to the Jiushan Sect is naturally also a reason.

Of course, the biggest reason is that Jiushan Sect is now somewhat confident:

With Li Shangxian's cultivation as a wandering immortal, he is currently unable to make any progress in the Nine Mountains Realm.

Therefore, this time when welcoming the Supreme Dao God, the Nine Mountain Patriarch, Senior Sister Zhang and Xie Qingxue did not show up, but the old man was the leader.

Firstly, this old man is the previous head of the sect, Master Zheng Fa, so his identity is sincere enough.

Secondly, the absence of the team that was going to kill Luo Sanxian was to deter Li Shangxian from making any unusual moves.

If we add in the fact that the Nine Mountains Realm is Zheng Fa's territory after all, and it has some suppression on the other immortals, there is really no need to worry too much.

The old man welcomed him to Wanxian Island, apologized for his crime, and left in a hurry.

Now Zhang Wuyi and the other two are protecting Zheng Fa, and he has a lot of things to do and is too busy.

Uncle Huang took people to arrange the dining quarters.

Only Uncle Pang and others were left to talk with these visitors from the Supreme Tao.

Uncle Pang is a very social person, and Immortal Li doesn't seem to be a difficult person to get along with. He always has a polite smile on his face, and the atmosphere is quite lively.

Uncle Pang was still sighing that the immortal Tai Shangdao had a really good personality.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Li Shangxian suddenly asked:

"Master Huang, how long has Zheng Fa been in seclusion?"

The room was completely silent. "… Immortal, Zheng Fa has been in seclusion for three days." Uncle Pang said with a stiff expression.

Who the hell is surnamed Huang?

If it were someone else, Uncle Pang would naturally want to get angry, but the person in front of him was an immortal after all, so he was a little scared.

It was still the head monk Mingde who coughed lightly and said, "Grandmaster, this real person's surname is Pang."

After that, he apologized to Uncle Pang and explained, "Grandmaster Li doesn't have a good memory."

"..." Uncle Pang saw that Li Shangxian had already gotten used to it, and he felt a little puzzled, but he could only say, "Your Excellency tends to forget things, but I understand."

Li Shangxian asked again: "What kind of skills does Zheng Fa...practice?"

Uncle Pang was stunned, thinking that this person was too polite to talk too much, why would he ask others about martial arts as soon as he came?

Master Mingde opened his mouth slightly and looked at Grandmaster Li, wondering: So this is your way of finding out about Zheng Fa's strength?
No wonder Master Xuan Ding insisted that we come!
Uncle Pang thought for a long time, and then explained calmly: "Zheng Fa's transformation into a spirit is the practice of the Huang Ting Sutra."

"Huangting Sutra?" Li Shangxian asked doubtfully, "Forgive my ignorance, but which sect's inheritance is this?"

Uncle Pang replied respectfully, "This is a technique created by our Jiushan Sect. It is normal that the Immortal has never heard of it."

Unexpectedly, Li Shangxian was stunned when he heard it: "Self-created?"

He looked at Uncle Pang who had a frank face, and seemed to see that he was not lying, and murmured: "I thought Zheng Fa had inherited something from his ancestors."

Uncle Pang smiled bitterly and said, "Before Zheng Fa came, our sect had never produced any real gods, so how could there be any inheritance?"

Immortal Li looked at Master Tongming who was standing beside him with a questioning look in his eyes.

Master Tongming was the founder of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, so he naturally knew about the previous situation of the Jiushan Sect. He nodded slightly, proving that what Master Pang of the Jiushan Sect said was true.

Li Shangxian's expression became more and more surprised. Uncle Pang explained, "Later, we did inherit a few divine powers, but Zheng Fa was too arrogant..."

After hearing this, Li Shangxian really understood and murmured, "Yes, who would be willing to accept this?"

He thought for a while, then sighed: "It's not easy. You said that this Huangting Sutra was created by Jiushan Sect. Shouldn't it be created by Zheng Fa?"

"To be honest with you, my Lord, in fact, according to me, most of them were created by him."

Li Shangxian asked: "Most of them?"

Uncle Pang smiled sheepishly: "Zheng Fa has always said that this "Huang Ting Sutra" was perfected by the sect's Shenhua and Yuanying together."

After hearing this, the whole room was surprised. Even the head monk Mingde couldn't help but ask, "It's just the Divine Transformation, but what about the Nascent Soul?"

Uncle Pang's smile became more shy: "I have completed one or two chapters of my teachings, but they are insignificant."

He said this, but how could he hide the pride and smugness on his face?
Li Shangxian's expression became much calmer and he stopped asking questions, as if he had lost interest in the "Huangting Sutra".

Mingde Master and the others looked at his expression and exchanged glances with their fellow disciples. They felt that Master Pang's pride was shallow and pathetic:
The method of transforming the spirit requires so many people to study together, even the Nascent Soul is involved.

What kind of magic could be perfected by a Nascent Soul?

The few of them simply changed the topic. As they were talking, a fluctuation of spiritual power suddenly came from the depths of Wanxian Island.

Li Shangxian's eyebrows jumped, and he narrowed his eyes and said:
“Is this the beginning of the impact on the Divine Transformation?”

Uncle Pang stood up and looked towards Zheng's court, with some worry in his eyes.

Li Shangxian comforted him, "Zheng Fa is incredibly powerful, how could he fail in the transformation tribulation? You don't have to worry too much..."

Halfway through his speech, he suddenly got stuck, raised his head abruptly, and looked towards Zheng Fang's court: "Failed?"

Not to mention him, even Mingde Master and others stood there in shock, with surprise on their faces:
They were all gods, and everyone had gone through the tribulation of god transformation. How could they not sense it? The aura that was about to impact the god transformation just now had given up halfway and ceased to exist.

Even Li Shangxian was confused:
He never expected that there would be problems in Zheng Fa's breakthrough to the Divine Transformation Tribulation.

But when he looked at Master Pang beside him, he saw that his expression had calmed down instead. He sat back in his chair, as if he was not worried at all.

Seeing his strange eyes, Uncle Pang laughed: "Didn't I just say that Zheng Fa is practicing a newly created method? This "Huangting Sutra" has not yet been truly completed. Zheng Fa is now in seclusion, just experimenting with the transformation of the spirit. I am sorry to have made a fool of myself."

The Huangting Sutra was based on the ideas proposed by Zheng Fa, perfected by the various gods and primordial infants of the Nine Mountains Realm, and then revised by modern scholars.

In theory, there is no problem.

There is only one thing: the practice of qigong varies greatly from person to person, and if theory is to be transformed into a method of practice, it still needs to undergo human experiments.

The reason why Zheng Fa didn't even have the time to meet Li Shangxian was because he himself was not sure how many times the transformation experiment would take and how long it would take, so he didn't want to delay too much.

After listening to Uncle Pang's explanation, Li Shangxian looked at Zheng Fa and said:

"God transformation experiment? I've never seen it before."

As he said this, his expression became much colder.

Master Mingde looked at his expression, then glanced at the few fellow disciples who were whispering to each other, and sighed inwardly:
Although they had never heard of any experiments on the transformation of spirits, the fact that Zheng Fa was able to create the "Huangting Sutra" was indeed admirable.

But from this point, we can also see a major weakness of the Jiushan Sect - its foundation is really shallow.

It's not that he is complacent, but he is just a spirit in the Supreme Dao. How could it be so troublesome?
This time, even the founder might look down on Zheng Fa and Jiushan Sect a little bit.

……

The fluctuation of spiritual power coming from Zheng Fa's courtyard occurs almost once every three to five days.

But most of the time, it only takes about an incense stick of time to subside.

Tai Shangdao and his party had been staying in the Nine Mountains Realm for nearly three months, and had gradually become numb and even accustomed to the fluctuations in spiritual energy.

"Grandmaster, are we still waiting here?"

The old man seemed a little impatient and asked boldly.

Li Shangxian was holding a cup of Xianzizui, feeling relaxed, and said, "Here? What's wrong with this place? I think this place is nice."

“This…” The old man lowered his voice, “Grandmaster, although Zheng Fa is very powerful now, it is so difficult for him to even practice the Divine Transformation Technique. If he wants to deal with Immortal Lu…”

Li Shangxian narrowed his eyes slightly: "This is the decree of Xuan Ding Patriarch."

"Yes!"

The abbot Mingde also remained silent.

Master Li did not refute, which seemed to indicate that he did not think highly of Zheng Fa, but was just unwilling to give up halfway.

I only heard footsteps coming from outside the courtyard and the door was knocked gently. It was Uncle Pang who came.

"I would like to let you all know that Zheng Fa will officially become a god today."

As soon as he arrived, he brought big news.

Abbot Mingde knew that he came to inform him not for any other reason, but because of the cultivator's fate, which should not be influenced by others.

Although affecting the fate of others will also cause being targeted by heaven and earth, most cultivators are not willing to die together with their fellow cultivators.

But they are outsiders after all.

Moreover, Zheng Fa had conducted so many experiments before, and they didn't know whether he was really achieving spiritual enlightenment. If something went wrong without paying attention, it would be even more troublesome.

That's why Pang Zhen came to inform you on purpose.

Even Master Mingde could conclude that their group had probably been targeted by Jiushan Zongzhang Zhenren and others.

Li Shangxian was in a good mood. Holding a glass of wine, he walked to the patio and looked towards Zheng's court.

The others followed behind him, also waiting for Zheng Fa's spiritual transformation.

Wherever they looked, the wind was carrying spiritual energy and the clouds were carrying precious light. It was indeed the scene of a cultivator's breakthrough.

Li Shangxian took another sip of wine and commented slowly: "Zheng Fa's accumulation of spiritual power is indeed strong."

As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual energy in the yard rushed up into the sky, and a strange aura of incarnation enveloped the entire Wanxian Island.

Li Shangxian's face froze, as if he felt that there was something wrong with this aura of spiritual transformation.

"Who is that!"

The old man who had transformed into a god couldn't help but shout.

In the sky, a purple cloud emerged that they were so familiar with.

A young Taoist figure slowly stepped out from the purple clouds and walked towards Zheng Fa's courtyard.

The Taoist's eyebrows and eyes were blurry, but the Tai Chi diagram above his head looked very familiar to them.

No wonder the old man couldn't help losing his composure. The wine glass in Li Shangxian's hand fell to the ground with a thud, and the wine splashed out and stained his Taoist robe, but he didn't care. He just murmured:

"Tao Zun!"

The people of Tai Shang Dao already had guesses in their minds, and when they heard these two words, they were even more certain about who this person was.

"Grandmaster, how could the Dao Master..."

Li Shangxian seemed to be explaining something to them, or perhaps recalling something:
"It is recorded in the sect that when a great way emerges, the Dao Master will appear... Once a new path appears in Xuanwei, the Dao Master will appear. The last time the Dao Master appeared was when... Tianhe Master became a god."

No one knew what to say. Instead, Li Shangxian seemed to have thought of something and asked Uncle Pang, "Have you perfected the Huangting Sutra?"

Uncle Pang was still staring at the Taoist priest in the sky in a daze, and answered casually, "Yeah."

Li Shangxian took a deep breath and suddenly bowed and said, "Excuse me, what is your name?"

Uncle Pang came back to his senses and looked at Immortal Li, his heart devastated - I come to entertain you every day, and it has been almost three months, and you still don’t remember who I am?

Li Shangxian bowed his hands and looked at Uncle Pang, with only one sentence in his expression:

I really didn’t remember it before, but now I really want to remember it.
