I'm in Shrouding the Heavens Practicing Eternal Life

Eastern Wilderness, Yaoguang.

A youth's eyes reflected the ancient mountains, each step he took seemed to reverse the rivers and mountains. In the blink of an eye, he traversed the Eastern Wilderness. All the formations within Yaoguang were as nothing to him. In an instant, he arrived at Yaoguang from a distant place, countless distant phantoms like dust falling behind him.

"I succeeded."

This youth was almost as fast as Luo Mo. It seemed that he had been watching Yaoguang from an infinitely distant place. The moment he saw Luo Mo return, he set off, the floating shadows of mountains and rivers flowing as he moved, crossing hundreds of millions of miles to appear at Yaoguang, in front of Luo Mo's teleportation gate.

"Congratulations."

Although Luo Mo was mentally prepared, he was still somewhat dazed when he saw that Gai Jiuyou was not that sickly old man, but a spirited youth.

Comprehending the true meaning of withering and flourishing, defying the heavens to live a second life, Gai Jiuyou had regained his youthful years.

If the geniuses of this generation knew that a quasi-emperor at his peak had regained his youth, their mentality would collapse on the spot.

"Thanks to your technique, the withering and flourishing of all things, the cycle of life and death. Without this true technique of withering and flourishing, there would be no me today."

Gai Jiuyou was in a good mood. Eight thousand years had passed since his failure to fight against the Qing Emperor's Dao. He could only barely prolong his life, eking out an existence in the world. He never expected that he would still have a chance to see the Emperor's throne, and the Great Emperor's position was so close to him.

"How is the recovery going?" Luo Mo asked.

"It will still take some time to recover to my peak. My strength has declined a lot over the millennia. In this new life, my lifespan is abundant, and I can re-forge my foundation and principles," Gai Jiuyou said. "The disaster technique you demonstrated last time touched me greatly. There are people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens. I think my Tribulation Transcendence Immortal Melody still needs to be improved."

Gai Jiuyou was not dissatisfied that his strength had not directly returned to its peak, but rather very happy, because after seeing Luo Mo's Great Disaster Art last time, he had been pondering his Tribulation Transcendence Immortal Melody, believing that there were still many areas where his Dao and techniques could be improved.

In the past, he felt that the technique he created was perfect enough, but now it seemed that there were still many shortcomings. All things in heaven and earth have tribulations, and his Tribulation Transcendence Immortal Melody had not yet reached the point of truly transcending all things, and there was still a long way to go.

"Then what are your plans next?"

If he had no plans, Luo Mo wanted to take Gai Jiuyou to the Transformation Immortal Pond, where there was a Holy Spirit and a Red-Haired Origin Heavenly Master.

"My origin is deficient, I plan to replenish it in the starry sky," Gai Jiuyou said, and then explained, "At my level, the consumption to replenish essence is at the star field level. I plan to find an uninhabited star field. The Big Dipper is not suitable."

That's true, the consumption of a quasi-emperor at the high level is outrageous.

"I was originally planning to invite you to visit a celestial land together, but since that's the case, you should go and recover first. We'll go after you've recovered."

Although Luo Mo really wanted to go to the Transformation Immortal Pond now, there was no need to rush. The things in the Transformation Immortal Pond had not yet reached the time to be born.

Maybe the time was not yet right. Luo Mo felt that he should go to the birthplace of the Arctic Immortal Light first. This kind of immortal realm vitality might be more suitable for him.

"Then I'll go with you when I return." Gai Jiuyou was not polite with Luo Mo. He didn't think it was necessary to put off his recovery to repay a debt of gratitude.

"By the way, do you know the time of the Immortal Ascension Road?" Luo Mo suddenly asked.

"I know."

Having reached their level of cultivation, they also knew a lot about the matters of the Supreme Beings in the restricted areas, and they were also clear about what the Supreme Beings in the restricted areas were waiting for.

"Don't take risks. When the Immortal Ascension Road opens, all the attention of the Supreme Beings in the restricted areas will be on the Immortal Ascension Road. That is your best opportunity."

Gai Jiuyou nodded solemnly, "I know, that's what I originally planned to do."

'Human calamity' is not a joke.

On the path to proving the Dao, there are heavenly tribulations and human calamities.

The heavenly tribulation naturally refers to each tribulation that a cultivator undergoes, to pass the thunder tribulation降下 sent down by the heavens, but cultivators can also benefit from the thunder tribulation and increase their Dao practice.

The human calamity refers to those Supreme Beings in the restricted areas, who had paid a heavy price for being prevented from initiating dark turmoil by the Great Emperors of previous generations. Many Supreme Beings in the restricted areas had died and their Dao had disappeared.

Therefore, they would deliberately stifle cultivators who were likely to prove the Dao, launching attacks one or two minor realms before the cultivator was about to prove the Dao to eliminate the threat.

The Golden Crow Great Emperor should be gone in this life, only the Golden Crow Quasi-Emperor.

"You know a lot, could this be a method you prepared for yourself?" Gai Jiuyou asked.

Because since he met Luo Mo, the techniques that Luo Mo had displayed and the information he knew were not something that people of his realm should possess.

It was more like someone like himself had been reborn and rebuilt, but even more miserable than himself, starting completely from scratch.

"This is the best method. If you miss it, you can only wait for the second Immortal Ascension Road to open. Directly proving the Dao is too dangerous."

"If this is the path you have prepared for yourself, in this life, I will wait for you to reach this realm," Gai Jiuyou said firmly, "Fair competition, the winner becomes Emperor!"

The battle for proving the Dao has always been a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, but even with the Great Emperor's position so close at hand, Gai Jiuyou said these words.

He had eight thousand years of bitterness, but he was unwilling to take Luo Mo's opportunity, but he would not give up the Great Emperor's position.

"Sounds good, I'll work hard and strive to cultivate to this realm when the Immortal Ascension Road opens." Luo Mo was not very motivated.

He could only appreciate Gai Jiuyou's kindness, because he didn't need anyone to give way. Even if someone proved the Dao first, he could still prove the Dao with the characteristics of the Chaos Body, and he didn't need to undergo tribulations at all. This was a disadvantage, but also an advantage.

The disadvantage of not having to undergo tribulations was that he would miss the profound meanings of the Great Dao contained in the heavenly tribulation, but the advantage was that he would not be discovered. It was very likely that the Supreme Beings in the restricted areas would suddenly discover on a sunny afternoon that someone had snatched the Heavenly Heart Mark, announcing the arrival of a generation of Great Emperors, and before that they would not feel anything.

Quasi-Emperor Ninth Tribulation, Quasi-Emperor Eighth Tribulation... none, it was as if a person had appeared out of thin air. They would probably want to complain to the Heavenly Dao at that time.

But no matter what, there would be at least two Emperors coexisting in the future, and Ye Fan, the Holy Body, could also become great and have Supreme-level combat power, which could at least smash the heads of the restricted areas.

"Your cultivation is progressing very quickly, and it may not be long before you can be on par with me and create a myth," Gai Jiuyou was very confident in Luo Mo, believing that he was cultivating very quickly.

"This is a divine talisman that I refined myself. Although you have many protective magic weapons, you probably lack the power to activate them. This divine talisman can transform into a clone of me, equivalent to my true self, but it cannot last long."

Even if it could not last long, it was still a limited-time Gai Jiuyou. On this Big Dipper Star, as long as he didn't provoke the Supreme Beings in the restricted areas, there would not be too much of a problem.

"Thank you."

"I should be the one thanking you," Gai Jiuyou smiled, "My disciple is arrogant, but after meeting you, her personality seems to have become more introverted. Please teach her more when you have time."

"No problem," Luo Mo agreed.

"Then I'll be going." Gai Jiuyou was obviously not someone who wasted words. After explaining everything and giving the divine talisman, he left.

Until he left, no one in Yaoguang noticed anything, completely ignoring the existence of this person.

It was at this time that they saw Luo Mo.

"Greetings, Holy Son."

"Holy Son-shixiong is back!"

Although encountering Gai Jiuyou didn't lead to exploring the Immortal Transformation Pool dungeon, obtaining a divine talisman is still a good outcome.

With Gai Jiuyou's cultivation, once Luo Mo activates the divine talisman, he will sense it no matter where Luo Mo is in the universe. Given his speed, he could arrive in short order. This is a safety measure even more powerful than a Quasi-Emperor weapon.

"Shidi, congratulations on completing your seclusion."

Li Rui calmly welcomed Luo Mo, the Holy Son, back. More than a year of tempering had allowed him to remain unperturbed by honor or disgrace, and he had grown accustomed to handling the sect's affairs, both large and small.

Many Supreme Elders, having obtained elixirs to extend their lives and possessing Emperor-level scriptures to cultivate, had been focusing all their efforts on cultivation during this time, rarely taking time to handle sect affairs, which in turn had tempered Li Rui.

…

Luo Mo's return naturally enlivened the Yaoguang Holy Land. His cultivation as the Holy Son had skyrocketed to the seventh transformation of the Dragon Transformation realm after more than a year of closed-door cultivation, as if he were riding a rocket.

For cultivators, breaking through a small realm in a year is considered fast, but Luo Mo had skipped levels.

However, there was someone who had improved even faster, and that was Wei Wei. She had been focusing all her energy on cultivation, without any distractions. Furthermore, she possessed a special physique like the Immortal Spirit Eyes. Her ethereal, near-immortal state of mind was in harmony with her physique, resulting in rapid progress.

Ninth transformation of the Dragon Transformation realm!

Such terrifying cultivation speed could only be rivaled by Wang Teng's younger brother and Xia Jiuyou in this era.

Even counting from ancient times, Wei Wei's cultivation speed would be enough to rank her in the top hundred. Although cultivation speed doesn't represent everything, it's still enough to surprise people.

Ancient Holy Body, Immortal Spirit Eyes, and the Holy Son and Holy Daughter. This generation of Yaoguang Holy Land can be considered to be full of talents.

It wasn't so good for Li Rui. Everyone else was a genius, and it seemed like he was the only useless one. Was this a good thing?

Therefore, after the drinking, he poured out his woes to Luo Mo, asking why he was so ordinary when everyone had taken the Dragon Transformation Immortal Ascension Pill?

Luo Mo could only offer words of comfort and then dealt him a critical blow.

Ye Fan had reached the Dragon Transformation realm.

Li Rui's face immediately fell. When he was in the Four Extremes realm, Ye Fan was only in the Sea of Bitterness realm. How could he have reached the Dragon Transformation realm so quickly? How do you monsters cultivate?

Ye Fan had the motivation to go home, and he was often besieged by others who wanted to kill him and seize his treasures.

He wasn't polite either, often beating people to death. He would attack if he could win, and he would attack even if he couldn't win. When he was about to die, he would use the Void Divine Pot to escape. After finishing, he would cultivate to improve his realm and then go back for revenge, repeating the cycle.

If Li Rui could persevere through such an experience and not die, it was estimated that his cultivation would also improve quickly.

Luo Mo left him some Feather Transformation Pills refined with Immortal Pool water, containing a Water-type divine power, branded in his body in the form of a divine pattern, which could unleash the secret technique 'Sea King Fist'.

After Li Rui refined this pill, he discovered that he could mobilize endless water vapor when he used Luo Mo's move 'Yellow River Descends from the West', just like the genuine article!

Of course, the move 'Yellow River Descends from the West' had long been improved into countless versions, but Li Rui was already very happy to find that he could practice the genuine version with great power. With this move, even he could unleash the combat power of the Sendai realm threshold with the cultivation of the fourth transformation of the Dragon Transformation realm.

From being ordinary to suddenly leaping to become a little genius with five forbidden combat powers, the resentment in Li Rui's heart suddenly disappeared, only to turn around and see that Luo Mo had disappeared again.

If you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse grass.

Therefore, Luo Mo acted immediately after feeding the grass and headed to the Northern Plains.

The Big Dipper has five major regions: Central Province, Western Desert, Eastern Wilderness, Southern Ridge, and Northern Plains.

The Northern Plains are bitterly cold, and further north is a snow region. The world is a vast expanse of white, with glaciers everywhere. It is bitterly cold, and the exhaled breath immediately turns into ice slag.

There is almost no biological activity here, because the wind and snow here are mixed with powerful forces, often scraping the skin and bones. Even cultivators find it difficult to survive.

The edge of this snow region connects to the sea, where giant figures hundreds of feet tall are fishing by the sea. A giant whale is captured and held in their hands like an ordinary person holding a river fish.

The Ancient Giant race.

This race is rarely seen. They are born with the ability to cultivate, inhaling the essence of the sun and moon. Because of their size, the divine power they breathe in and out every day is extremely vast. If you have to say, they are more like demons.

In this snow region, apart from the Ancient Giants, I am afraid that only the Snow Ape race can survive.

Luo Mo walked through the snow region and entered a huge ice field. Along the way, he also saw several huge ice palaces, towering into the clouds, engraved with immortal divine patterns, allowing them to stand firm forever.

This is the ancient ruins of the Giant race. Luo Mo stopped here, visited the ruins of the Giant race, observed their techniques, and then continued on.

The ice field is not large, at least not as vast as the five major regions. Finally, Luo Mo approached the heart of the North Pole.

This is a terrible field, and ordinary people cannot enter it at all. Various colorful mists are diffused, and the light is intertwined. The sky is like a dreamlike canvas, with various auroras falling like a sky curtain, like oil paint smeared by a giant brush.

The most central area is the most brilliant, with chaotic light rotating around it, and various ice slags splashing, colorful, containing various chaotic and powerful vitality, like a magic well that reaches the sky and the earth.

"Oh, the vitality here is so chaotic, but the middle is a little purer."

Purple Dragon flew out, because it felt the power that was dangerous to Luo Mo, and propped up a layer of white jade luster shield to protect the master.

"It's the True Essence of Extreme Yin and the Divine Light of Yuan Magnetism. Even great powers will be crushed if they enter." Luo Mo found that this was a good place for cultivation. Of course, it was not bad for the Slayer of the Dao in the Dragon Transformation realm who cultivated the Extreme Yin scripture, but those whose cultivation was lower than that would be killed by the terrifying power here.

The True Essence of Extreme Yin and the Divine Light of Yuan Magnetism gushed out from the central area, like a sea and a tide, with a terrifying momentum, and the wind and snow revolved around it.

Storms, ice slags, the power of Extreme Yin, and the Divine Light of Yuan Magnetism formed a vortex. Luo Mo stepped into it and was immediately subjected to the negotiation of this force from the field, like a great formation of heaven and earth, with endless power being squandered.

Above the magic well, an old woman was sitting cross-legged. The light that crushed the great powers bypassed her like a breeze.

A Saint!

Above this Saint's head, there was a pyramid cast from cyan gold, with the sun, moon, and stars flowing, and a vast cyan energy falling down, surrounding her.

This cyan pyramid was recorded inside Yaoguang Holy Land. It was dug out from a mining area, but it was taken away by an old woman wearing ancient clothes from six thousand years ago.

Luo Mo also remembered very clearly that this was an ancient ancestral artifact. Although it was damaged, it was also a treasure. This old woman was a Saint, so naturally she could not misjudge it. Therefore, she took it away from the Yaoguang mining area and came to the center of the North Pole, wanting to find the Northern Lights.

One was to extend her life with the Northern Lights, and the other was to repair the cyan pyramid with the Northern Lights.

The old woman did not react in any way, as quiet as a rock, with her life extinct, and countless complex Dao patterns surrounding her body, about to melt into the void.

This was turning into Dao.

Luo Mo ignored her, and did not ask her to return the ancient ancestral artifact cyan pyramid excavated from the Yaoguang mining area, but resisted the wind and snow and the sea-like True Essence of Extreme Yin and the Divine Light of Yuan Magnetism, and walked step by step towards the central area.

There was an ice cave there, leading to Luo Mo's destination.

In front of the ice cave, there was a stone tablet that rotated with the vortex. The stone tablet was of special material and was blessed with immortal Dao patterns, so it existed for a long time in this terrifying terrain. The ancient characters on it were shining brightly, as if they were about to be imprinted in the eyes of everyone who saw them.
