Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 1085: Chapter 14: Inside Xuan Yuan Palace

The Void is a furnace, the Great Dao is the fire.

Wang Sheng used the fire of the Great Dao to re-forge the Three-Life Book and the Space-time Ring.

This made the two secret treasures even more powerful and more suited for the Underworld.

The Underworld thus became more complete, the growth speed of the Reincarnation Dao accelerated, and Wang Sheng himself once again received rewards from the Starry Sky Rules.

“This time, the modifications and improvements to the Underworld allowed me to establish several billion more energy nodes within the Great Tao River, not bad!”

An enhancement of mastery by comprehending the Reincarnation Dao, and another reward from the Starry Sky Rules for the ritual refinement of the secret treasure.

Although it’s not as astonishing as establishing the Reincarnation Channel, such a short-term enhancement at this stage is undoubtedly fortunate.

“It’s simply a triple-win scenario.”

His cultivation was enhanced, the most suitable Reincarnation Dao for the Underworld was born, and the rules of the starry sky were further refined.

Isn’t this a triple win?

“Now what the Underworld needs most is normal operation; once it starts running, the Reincarnation Dao will naturally grow rapidly, and I won’t need to transform it excessively.”

The Underworld, having given birth to the Reincarnation Dao, might need some fine-tuning, but in terms of overall direction, there’s no need for significant change.

The only aspect that may require major adjustments is the various official positions.

However, since the Four Great Judges and the Ten Great Yin Marshals already exist, there’s no need to rush for the others.

The basic functions just need to be complete.

We can discuss additional needs in the future.

After using the Space-time Ring to hide the Underworld deeper, Wang Sheng also left the Underworld.

Next time he returns, it will be when the Star Beast Ghost Messenger and the Ghost Messengers transformed from lost souls awaken, by then, some positions in the Underworld will be adjusted.

By that time, the Reincarnation Dao will certainly be more refined, enough for him to once again comprehend and enhance his cultivation.

…

Back at the Lifeless Dojo, Wang Sheng entered into seclusion.

His being returned to the Void Dao.

The Dao is formless and without appearance.

But to him, everything is vividly realized.

Within the Great Tao River, there is also his Daoist School.

It is a palace, not grand in size, but emanating an inexplicable radiance.

The waves of the Great Tao River, which can destroy everything, calm instantly once they approach the palace.

Wang Sheng’s true form came back, entering directly into the palace.

“This time, the insight into the Dao brought significant enhancement; I should first arrange the energy nodes.”

Insight is one thing, mastery is another.

Due to his improvement in the Underworld, he can arrange several billion more energy nodes.

But none have been realized yet.

He must personally arrange them.

The enhancement of cultivation cannot be careless.

Several billion energy nodes, said to be numerous yet few.

Wang Sheng did not expend much effort.

During this process, he also connected some energy nodes into an energy surface, gaining even more.

Besides this, there’s the Reincarnation Dao.

Being the first cultivator to comprehend the Reincarnation Dao, he easily located it within the endless Great Tao River.

In his eyes, the Dao is a river.

The Dao he sees is endless, boundless; though described as a river, even as a cultivator refining the void and integrating, he cannot see its end.

However, at this time, the Reincarnation Dao —

“Like a creek, it’s no wonder it’s a newly born Dao, yet it’s growing not slowly.”

He indeed saw the growth of the Reincarnation Dao.

Of course, though it seems weak now, this is the Starry Sky Rules.

If underestimated, one will certainly suffer a great loss.

Only after arranging some nodes into the Reincarnation Dao did he exit the special state of insight.

The Reincarnation Dao then disappeared again into the void.

Yet for Wang Sheng, finding it now is rather easy.

“Arranging nodes into the yet-unmatured Reincarnation Dao, I wonder what will happen? Will nothing happen, or will my mastery of the Reincarnation Dao grow as well?”

He pondered deeply.

Very much anticipating the changes to come.

This was also an attempt for him; otherwise, why would he do so?

Indeed, should he want to gain insight, entering the Underworld is quite convenient, as the space there was entirely his creation, fully within his control, making it more advantageous than within the Great Tao River.

“Let me wait and see!”

After completing everything, Wang Sheng departed the Great Tao River, returning to his Daoist School.

Compared to the speculated long river, staying in the present world is far more comfortable.

Back in the Daoist School, Wang Sheng did not continue cultivation.

“The matters of the Underworld are temporarily concluded, next is—”

His gaze crossed space, penetrating the barriers between old and new lands.

Finally falling upon a particular place.

The Xuan Yuan Star Domain, Xuan Yuan Palace’s Inheritance Palace.

Before establishing the Underworld, Wang Sheng had probed it.

The power of the Twelfth Realm couldn’t be shaken; thus, beyond the time it was opened, he, leveraging the causal followings of the Deep Sea Saint Emperor and Boundless Saint Emperor, observed it afterwards, making no further moves.

He wasn’t weak at the time; if truly measured, he could be declared the first strongest of the old land, yet still unable to shake it; coupled with the Shattered Star Sacred Land seeking to enter the new land, he cautiously let the Deep Sea Saint Emperor inspect the situation of the Shattered Star Sacred Land.

“I suspected at the time this so-called Inheritance Palace was a force of the Thirteen Realms, now let me see if it’s indeed true, and also—”

“If the Source Pen is truly within!”

His interest in the inheritance of the Xuan Yuan Palace was not only due to its unimaginable strength.

Even more because of the legendary secret treasure circulated among old land Saint Emperors, the Source Pen.

“According to Xing Hou, knowing the emergence of Xuan Yuan Palace’s inheritance, the reason those few top Saint Emperors have not taken action is their fear of the risks brought by the Source Pen; if I were to obtain it, would such risks affect me?”
