Chapter 3540 Familiarity
The Seven Mysterious Divine Tower.
Within the first layer of space.
Shen Changqing sat cross-legged in the void, constantly refining the Soul-Destroying Sword with his divine sense, gradually deepening his connection with this supreme treasure.
Five million years have passed in the outside world.
Within the first layer of space, there are a full five hundred million years.
Over such a long period of time, Shen Changqing devoted all his efforts to refining the Soul-Destroying Sword.
Although he is still a long way from truly mastering the Soul-Destroying Sword, his power has increased significantly compared to before his seclusion.
When the refining process is over.
Shen Changqing opened his eyes.
“It’s the limit!”
He exhaled a breath of turbid air and looked inward at the Soul-Destroying Sword in the Heavenly Universe. With a thought, he saw the blood-red immortal sword tremble slightly and appear in the void in the next instant.
The Legend of Sword and Fairy appears.
The sword intent is everywhere.
Even if Shen Changqing did not unleash the full power of the Soul-Destroying Sword, the mere aura of the immortal sword he exuded was enough to suppress the void and the universe, causing even the rules of the Great Dao to fall silent.
Looking at the blood-red immortal sword before him, Shen Changqing could feel the boundless power contained within it.
With his current level of knowledge, he could hardly discern the quality of such a treasure.
Similar to the Seven Mysterious Divine Tower.
This is Shen Changqing's most precious treasure to date, one that he has never truly seen through.
but--
In Shen Changqing's view.
The Seven Mysterious Divine Tower should be stronger than the Soul-Destroying Sword.
The former's seven-story divine tower space each possesses its own unique mysteries.
However, Shen Changqing has not yet been able to truly step into the seventh level, and he has no idea what mysteries the seventh level holds.
But apart from the seventh floor, all the other floors are extraordinary.
Of course.
The space that Shen Changqing used the most was the first layer.
A hundred times the time.
This can be described as defying fate.
Without the Seven Mysterious Divine Tower providing a hundred times the time, millions of years later, Shen Changqing wouldn't even be able to reach the level of a half-saint, let alone become a Dao Immortal Emperor.
This can be seen.
How powerful is the Seven Mysterious Divine Tower?
These treasures are beyond the measure of ordinary treasures obtained through warfare.
The Soul-Destroying Sword is unparalleled in its power, but if Shen Changqing had to choose between the two, he would naturally value the Seven Profound Divine Tower more.
But whatever.
He valued both of these treasures highly.
After hundreds of millions of years of refinement, Shen Changqing realized that his control over the Soul-Destroying Sword had reached its limit.
To be precise.
This is the limit of the current realm.
To go further, one must break through to the semi-saint realm before one can refine further.
Understanding this, Shen Changqing naturally did not continue his seclusion.
With a thought, he put the Soul-Destroying Sword back into his sea of consciousness, and then walked out of the Seven Profound Divine Tower.
The first thing after clearing customs.
Shen Changqing then summoned the peak masters of each peak to understand the current situation of the Xuantian Dao Sect.
Inside the Immortal Palace of the Sect.
Everyone gathered here.
When Shen Changqing appeared, everyone stood up to greet him.
"Meet the sect master!"
"No gifts."
Shen Changqing nodded, then his gaze fell on the crowd below.
Five million years have passed, and now, in the sect's main hall, there are fewer familiar faces and more unfamiliar ones.
There's nothing we can do about this.
Ancient immortals have a limited lifespan.
A billion years is not a long time.
In the span of five million years, it is not surprising that some people may die of old age or pass away unexpectedly for some reason.
but--
Among the crowd, Shen Changqing spotted a familiar face.
"The Supreme God of the Azure Sky!"
His expression moved slightly.
Shen Changqing was quite familiar with this person.
He just didn't expect that the other party had not only ascended to the upper realm, but had also joined the Xuantian Dao Sect.
Noticing Shen Changqing's gaze, Ji Yang said, "Reporting to Master, this Fellow Daoist Huangji Shangqiong has ascended from the lower realm and is an elder of our Danfeng!"
"It's been many years, but Fellow Daoist Shangqiong still retains his charm!"
Shen Changqing smiled calmly, and the Supreme God of the Azure Sky also bowed in greeting.
"I've met the sect master!"
When Shen Changqing joined the Xuantian Dao Sect, the Supreme Celestial already knew that his strength was unfathomable, far surpassing what he had achieved in the heavens.
But now that he has actually met Shen Changqing, the Supreme God of the Sky can truly feel how big the gap is between the two.
Just sitting there made Shen Changqing feel as if he were facing an abyss, with no discernible depth.
Their strength is difficult to gauge.
This is enough to show that the opponent is very strong, so strong that even he himself could hardly see a trace of them.
Shen Changqing paid no attention to the shock in the heart of the Supreme God, but instead looked at the other peaks.
Over millions of years, the Heavenly Sect has produced another batch of ancient immortals, but not every ancient immortal can become a member of the order. However, becoming an elder of a peak is not a problem.
Subsequently.
Shen Changqing learned about the changes in the Xuantian Dao Sect from the various peaks.
At last.
He then mentioned something else.
"A hundred years from now, I will be giving a sermon at Miscellaneous Peaks. All cultivators from any sect are welcome to come and listen."
"We obey!"
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this.
This person is going to preach, that's a very important thing.
After all, if a powerful figure of this level were to expound on the Great Dao, it would be a significant opportunity for other cultivators.
Shen Changqing gave a brief explanation and then left the sect's immortal palace.
The reason for preaching is...
Shen Changqing wanted to use this opportunity to examine the changes that Xuantian Dao Sect had undergone over the past few million years.
And then.
It's essentially a way to indirectly boost the sect's strength.
In just a few years, the next Heavenly Battlefield will begin.
Prior to this.
Shen Changqing naturally wanted to enhance the strength of the Xuantian Dao Sect.
Only in this way can the Xuan Tian Dao Sect enable the Divine Heaven Domain to advance to a sufficiently high level in the subsequent Heavenly Dao Battlefield.
Return to Yangxinju.
Shen Changqing summoned Minghe and the others to come and give them guidance on cultivation.
Over millions of years, with ample resources, their cultivation levels have all improved significantly.
Among them, Minghe, as the senior disciple, has now broken through to the Ancient Immortal Queen level in terms of cultivation.
Normally speaking...
Given Minghe's aptitude, it's highly unlikely that he could advance from the initial stage of Ancient Immortal to the later stage in just a few million years.
However, Shen Changqing bestowed many resources upon him, and although Minghe's aptitude could not compare to those with acquired bloodlines or even innate immortal bodies, it was not too bad.
This way.
Over millions of years, Minghe's cultivation level naturally advanced by leaps and bounds.
And then.
These were Yu Ren and others.
Over millions of years, the group used the Nine Luminaries World-Suppressing Scripture as their foundation, and their cultivation improved rapidly, with each of them breaking through to the middle stage of Ancient Immortal.
Among all the disciples, Gu Qingyang, Ji Yang, and Ye Yun improved their cultivation the fastest.
These three individuals have all reached the peak of the Ancient Immortal realm, and with one more step forward, they can directly challenge the Immortal Emperor realm.
Shen Changqing was naturally satisfied with the progress his disciples had made in their cultivation.
Subsequently.
He then gave a sermon to the crowd, addressing their many questions about cultivation.
the difference is.
Ye Yun had the Venerable Xuanxu secretly guiding him, and Ji Yang was a Dao Venerable in his previous life, so his understanding of cultivation was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Therefore.
Shen Changqing didn't have much to offer regarding their cultivation.
Gu Qingyang obtained an ancient inheritance and cultivated the Sword Embryo Immortal Scripture and the Nine Heavens Myriad Tribulations Sword Manual. Both of these inheritances were held by the innate Sword Embryo Immortals of past generations.
Although Shen Changqing had some understanding of these two lineages, he couldn't say he had a deep understanding of them.
and so.
He adopted a hands-off approach to all three, allowing them to grow on their own.
The people who truly need guidance in cultivation are Minghe and others.
None of them had guidance from ancient masters, nor had they been able to awaken their past life wisdom, nor did they possess any heaven-defying inheritance.
What everyone cultivates is the Nine Luminaries World-Suppressing Scripture.
and so.
Shen Changqing gave instructions with ease.
He then gave a sermon.
The group's understanding of the Nine Luminaries World-Suppressing Scripture has become increasingly profound.
After the last question was answered, Shen Changqing looked at the people in front of him and spoke.
"I have already told you everything that needs to be said. Now you can focus on your cultivation."
If you have any further questions, please feel free to come and ask.
"Thank you, Master. This disciple will take his leave now!"
The group bowed respectfully, then turned and left.
Not long after.
Inside Yangxin Residence, only Shen Changqing remained.
half a month later.
Shen Changqing stepped into the True Fire Hall and continued refining pills.
For millions of years, he has been refining the Soul-Destroying Sword and has had little time to comprehend the Dao of Alchemy.
Now that there's no need to waste time on the Soul-Destroying Sword, Shen Changqing naturally wants to pick up alchemy again, hoping that one day he can reach the level of an eighth-order alchemy grandmaster.
But a pity.
The first attempt to refine pills ended in failure.
Looking at the immortal ash inside the Bagua Ziyang Furnace, Shen Changqing shook his head.
"I haven't refined pills for many years, so I've become a bit rusty!"
A thought flashed through his mind.
All the remnants of the immortal medicine were swept up by an unseen force and then casually tossed into the earth fire, serving as nourishment for it.
After all, each of these materials used to refine seventh-order immortal pills is an immortal medicine that has reached the level of an immortal emperor. Even the residue left after a failed refining process contains considerable immortal energy.
these things.
Useless to Shen Changqing.
However, it is a good fuel for subterranean fires.
After slightly adjusting his state, Shen Changqing continued refining pills.
however.
Five attempts to refine the elixir all ended in failure.
Having not practiced alchemy for hundreds of millions of years, Shen Changqing's skills in the art of alchemy had become extremely rusty.
no way.
This seclusion of five million years, which has lasted for hundreds of millions of years within the Seven Profound Divine Tower, is several times longer than all of Shen Changqing's previous years combined.
Before going into seclusion.
Shen Changqing is only a little over 100 million years old.
but now.
If calculated normally, he is already 600 million years old.
After such a long period of seclusion, it's inevitable that many things will become unfamiliar.
Let alone alchemy, even in the art of weapon crafting, Shen Changqing, an eighth-level grandmaster, wouldn't dare say he could successfully craft an Emperor Immortal weapon.
no way.
The time interval is too long.
It's not easy to regain your form all at once.
