I'm in Shrouding the Heavens Practicing Eternal Life

The white jade luster shield around Luo Mo's body completely blocked the chaotic power of the Arctic center, like rain hitting glazed tiles, unable to shake it in the slightest.

The power of the Undying Dragon Spear was enough to protect him as he freely entered and exited this place. He didn't pay attention to that female Saint; according to the original story's destiny, she would survive.

Of course, if something unexpected happened to her because of Luo Mo, Luo Mo wouldn't feel the slightest bit of guilt.

Who told you to snatch the ancient artifact that the Yao Guang Holy Land dug out?

Luo Mo walked forward, past the stone tablet that read 'Saints Halt Here,' and through the chaotic storm. The broken bones, stone tablets, ice shards, and broken weapons moved with the field, colliding with the white jade shield and erupting with attacks comparable to a King who had severed his Dao.

If he didn't have the Undying Dragon Spear, this living weapon, Luo Mo probably wouldn't be able to enter at all. After all, activating Saint Weapons and Supreme Emperor Weapons consumed too much energy for him at his current stage. He wouldn't be able to advance too far and wouldn't be able to delve deep enough to find what he wanted.

The Purple Dragon was also only operating at low power. Although it was a living weapon, it didn't have enough vitality to unleash its strongest power, so it was best to silently walk inside.

As an Eternal life treasure, it needed pure Yang energy to exert its power. Enough pure Yang energy could even make a Dao artifact go berserk and perform exceptionally. Otherwise, it could only operate at low power, greatly reducing its strength.

As a treasure of the Shrouding Heavens cultivation system, it could absorb the essence of heaven and earth to exert its power, but it couldn't compare to cultivators of the same realm in this regard.

To put it simply, it was currently equivalent to a quasi-Nine Guard gatekeeper, the kind without any forbidden techniques. It wouldn't be able to handle a quasi-Emperor with the Eight Forbidden or even Divine Forbidden techniques.

But even operating at low power, the obstacles here were nothing to it and couldn't shake its defense.

In the center of this storm, Luo Mo saw an ice cave deep well. The sea-like Tai Yin True Essence and Yuan Magnetic Divine Light gushed out from here, and the storm revolved around it.

Luo Mo jumped into the well and fell downward. The ice cave below was colorful, with light and splendor like water mist rising. It was bone-chillingly cold, and hundreds of corpses floated, most of which had already frozen and cracked, becoming fragments. Even the ice that had been solid for countless years couldn't remain intact under the chaotic power here.

The clothes on these people were very ancient, and from different eras, but they had one thing in common:

Those who could die under the ice cave were at least Saints.

"There are Saint remains protected by solid ice, their life force severed, their blood frozen, but their origins have not been lost."

This could be used to cultivate people who practice the Devouring Heaven Demon Art.

Although Saints would be everywhere in a hundred years, the Great Emperor Qing's Dao had not yet dissipated in this era, cultivation was difficult, and Saints were hard to find. So many frozen Saint corpses were also an excellent resource.

After delving three thousand feet, the various essences in the depths of the ice cave surged violently. Luo Mo stopped having the Undying Dragon Spear protect him and directly entered the internal space of the Undying Dragon Spear, letting it fall towards the depths of the ice cave. This would save more power, because it would need to exert great strength later.

Finally, after delving ten thousand feet, the Undying Dragon Spear plunged into a vast land with a 'ding'.

The underground world was not dark, and various flying lights illuminated the place, like a kingdom of gods.

After diving ten thousand feet into the ice cave, Luo Mo and the others were not in the underground of the Big Dipper Starfield, but had entered another small world. There were many ruins here, and a huge stone gate stood in the center.

The stone gate had a crack open, and a massive amount of Tai Yin True Essence and Yuan Magnetic Divine Light and other vitality gushed out from inside. The terrifying fluctuations here were enough to tear apart Saints.

There was a plaque on the stone gate with the words 'Immortal Mansion' written on it.

He had arrived.

Another abandoned path to immortality!

Like the Immortal Mansion small world in Zhongzhou, there was also an abandoned path to immortality in the center of this Arctic ice field.

The Undying Dragon Spear vibrated, then flew up and directly passed through the crack in the stone gate where various forces surged out, entering inside.

Boom—

Inside the stone gate was an even more powerful and violent world of vitality. The vitality here was extremely abundant, and naturally flowing outwards formed a storm that could tear apart Saints, forming turbulence at the entrance.

There was also a wisp of ancient killing intent in the bone-chilling vitality, which made the Purple Dragon shiver and say, "What powerful killing intent. There's probably someone particularly strong here, even stronger than Gai Jiuyou. Is it really okay to go straight in?"

"Don't worry, it's just the residual killing intent of a Supreme."

"What do you mean 'just'..." The Purple Dragon complained, then controlled its main body to slowly move forward.

Inside the stone gate, beams of light intertwined, even more brilliant than the traditional vision of the Yao Guang Holy Land's divine light world. The vitality containing divine essence surged and surged, as if one were in an ocean of vitality.

Boom!

The Undying Dragon Spear vibrated and was knocked away. Although it was not seriously damaged, it made the Purple Dragon exclaim, "What a powerful array pattern! Was it arranged by a Supreme?"

There was a one-meter square piece of incomplete pattern on the ground, which was directly destroyed after being triggered and could not exist for long. It was what knocked away the Undying Dragon Spear.

"A node of a corner of a remnant array, its power is already very weak, be careful."

Luo Mo held the Eight Trigrams Plate and was calculating. This place was full of Great Emperor array patterns, which had a powerful interference force. He could only calculate the flow of vitality, build a complex model, and find what he wanted.

In his acupoints, the meteorites he had once refined vibrated, and the Great Stellar Art resonated with the Great Eight Trigrams Art and the Great Acupoint Art. Luo Mo transformed into a human-shaped computer, sitting in the Undying Dragon Spear, carefully collecting data and performing calculations as the Undying Dragon Spear roamed in this small world.

This was a scorched earth. Even the Great Emperor-level array formations had been destroyed in the past fierce battles, leaving only some incomplete patterns. After the Purple Dragon became serious, it didn't encounter them again, avoiding them one by one.

Before long, they wandered to the end of this small world, where chaos surged and the road ahead was cut off.

Broken mountains, cracked valleys, river channels... were all cut off here, and a thick layer of chaos blocked the way. This small world had been destroyed.

Luo Mo instructed the Purple Dragon to search among the broken mountains, cracked valleys, and river channels, while he calculated the vitality transmitted from the chaos, sensing where the vitality was of the highest quality.

Finally, half a month later, when the Purple Dragon swam through a deep rift valley, Luo Mo shouted 'Stop'.

The vitality here was wrong!

He grabbed another wisp of vitality, analyzed and calculated it for a moment, and then said to the Purple Dragon, "This is it, dig down."

The Undying Dragon Spear was raised high, like a real dragon stretching its body. The dragon blade was like a horn, launching an attack in the direction Luo Mo pointed.

Boom!

White divine light broke through a piece of chaos, immediately revealing the hollow inside. It was a bubble of thick chaos, forming a small cave heaven.

The reason why this cave heaven could be opened in the chaos was because it was full of high-quality vitality, propping open the chaos.

Swish swish swish...

Several spirit dragons forged from light flew out of the chaos bubble, each of them several feet long, with immortal energy rising.

Under the Purple Dragon's astonished gaze, Luo Mo shouted, "Don't be stunned, quickly collect them all."

The Undying Dragon Spear devoured, like a dragon sucking water, sucking the special vitality in the chaos bubble into its belly, along with those immortal light spirit dragons.

The vitality and light dragons all entered the internal space of the Undying Dragon Spear and were sent to Luo Mo's front, and a sacred, peaceful, and incomparably pure aura rushed towards him.

Immortal Realm vitality!

Is this the Immortal Realm vitality of the Shrouding Heavens world?

Luo Mo took a breath of immortal energy, and then calculated and analyzed it. After a long while, he opened his eyes.

"Feasible!"

Absolutely feasible!

The immortal energy of the Shrouding Heavens world was also high-quality vitality. For the Eternal life treasure, which was not picky about food, it could be used for cultivation!

"What are these light dragons?" Purple Dragon asked. It could feel that these things were of high quality, but it didn't recognize them.

"Arctic Immortal Light, formed by the vitality leaked from the Immortal Realm. It can merge with the Yuan Shen, allowing one's Yuan Shen to remain immortal."

For Luo Mo, these were all resources for cultivation.

"This is a point where immortal energy is leaking. Continue digging, there should be more gains inside."

This small world was nourished like an immortal soil. If the Supreme had not fought here, the environment should have been even better than the Immortal Mansion small world in Zhongzhou, because there was immortal energy leaking.

The Undying Dragon Spear moved again, drilling into the chaos, violently breaking through the chaos.

In just a few days, they encountered another chaos bubble small world again. This one was deeper and larger than the previous one. There were more than two thousand Arctic Immortal Lights squeezed together inside, and immortal energy was constantly leaking from here, running to the outside, which is why there was Arctic Immortal Light.

But for the next five months, they had no gains, always digging around in the chaos, occasionally digging into a cavity, which only contained a small amount of immortal energy, but no immortal light.

Ding

The Undying Dragon Spear suddenly encountered an abnormal thing in the chaos, which made Luo Mo, who was comprehending the immortal light, open his eyes.

The sound was obviously not digging into a cavity, but encountering a hard object.

The Purple Dragon dug out what it had encountered. It was actually a piece of cyan gold fragment, like a blade of some kind of weapon.

The cyan gold fragment was not big, not even the size of an adult's palm, but it had feather patterns, deducing the scene of ascension to immortality. The immortal light of immortality had not completely dissipated for countless years, and still retained a trace.

A piece of abandoned Feathered Cyan Gold, not only had the internal Dao patterns been erased, but even the divine essence belonging to the immortal gold was gone, completely lost.

"We actually dug up a piece of immortal gold fragment. Could this be what the ancient Supreme destroyed?" Purple Dragon asked.

"Very likely."

"This doesn't seem to be of much use anymore, should we keep it?" Purple Dragon asked.

Luo Mo thought for a while and replied, "After all, it's immortal gold, we can keep it as a souvenir."

"Okay."

The Purple Dragon sent the cyan gold fragment into the internal space, and then continued to dig into the chaos.

After another two months, they still had no major gains, only digging into a few small cavities, and collecting a few hundred pieces of immortal light sporadically.

Although this was already an enormous fortune for ordinary people, even a single strand of Arctic Immortal Light could fetch a sky-high price outside, because it could merge with the Primordial Spirit, allowing people to maintain the immortality of their Primordial Spirit and live longer.

Anything that could extend lifespan has always been extremely expensive, especially since the Arctic Immortal Light also contained the aura of the Immortal Realm, which was extremely beneficial for cultivation, but only a wisp would fly out from the Arctic Ice Plains every ten thousand years.

Only a wisp would fly out every ten thousand years, and many people would never have the chance to see it in their entire lives.

And in these past few months, Luo Mo had been studying the Immortal Light, even temporarily putting aside the matter of cultivating his divine form.

The stellar cores in his acupoints flickered, and runes on the Eight Trigrams Plate constantly flashed, dazzling the eyes. He had been deducing the Immortal Light and tentatively refining it.

The Immortal Light was sacred and peaceful, with a pure aura. At this moment, a strand of Immortal Light was in Luo Mo's sea of consciousness, emitting immortal energy. With a thought from Luo Mo, the Immortal Light transformed into a brilliant radiance and merged into his sea of consciousness.

The Golden Core floated in the brilliant radiance of the sea of consciousness, absorbing and refining the immortal energy. Nourished by the immortal energy, a vague figure deep within the Golden Core gradually outlined itself.

At the same time, Luo Mo's Immortal Platform was also gradually outlined in the illusion, wiped clean by the Immortal Light, as bright as a mirror.

His Transformation Dragon secret realm was not yet complete, but just refining the Arctic Immortal Light was about to wash out the Immortal Platform. The benefits of the Arctic Immortal Light for the Immortal Platform were obvious.

Luo Mo's divine sense also transformed into a small figure, absorbing the Immortal Light. The Immortal Light had the characteristic of maintaining the immortality of the Primordial Spirit, which could delay the power of time. It was already a good thing for strengthening the Primordial Spirit, and it was best to use divine sense to absorb it.

Initially, it took Luo Mo a month to refine a strand of Arctic Immortal Light, but later he gradually increased his efficiency.

Twenty-five days, twenty days, half a month…

Luo Mo had already transformed his physical body into a furnace, using the acupoints as nodes to provide power support. His physical body was transparent, and his internal organs, bones, muscles, all were as crystal clear as diamonds, with immortal light flowing within.

Now, he was refining hundreds of strands of Immortal Light at once, like a python swallowing an elephant.

Although the power contained in the Immortal Light was extremely vast, he himself was a bottomless pit.

Putting aside everything else, just the Great Acupoint Opening Technique alone, opening three hundred and sixty-five acupoints with divine objects was considered a great accomplishment, but if you had the ability, you could even open all one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred acupoints throughout your body. Even cultivators of the Eternal Life Law would cry poor at such a number.

Three hundred and sixty-five were already difficult to find, one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred?

Can't afford it!

Goodbye!

Although the Meteorite Star Core was also a treasure for opening and suppressing acupoints, it was not as good as the Arctic Immortal Light. The Meteorite Star Core was more suitable for refining into a set of Star Treasures.

So, taking this opportunity, Luo Mo directly replaced the Meteorite Star Cores, intending to refine them into a set of Star Treasures, and in his three hundred and sixty-five major acupoints, each was occupied by a strand of Arctic Immortal Light.

Luo Mo's whole body was steaming with immortal energy, and immortal energy flowed out from the acupoints, circulating throughout his body along the meridians. Every pore was spurting immortal light, weaving an immortal cocoon, wrapping him inside.

Great Treasure Refining Technique, using the body as a furnace, melting the Arctic Immortal Light!

Amazing changes were taking place in Luo Mo's body. The Arctic Immortal Light replaced the Meteorite Star Core. Each of the three hundred and sixty-five major acupoints had a strand of Arctic Immortal Light, and immortal energy flowed out, circulating along the meridians, nourishing the physical body, and producing amazing transformations.

In the sea of consciousness, the Golden Core throbbed, having absorbed a lot of Arctic Immortal Light, but the internal phantom was still blurry, unable to manifest the Dharma Idol of Heaven and Earth.

The resources needed for the thirty-three Golden Cores of the Three Thousand Great Daos were truly massive!

Luo Mo was temporarily unable to break through the number thirty-three. Although he had resources, he had no way to cultivate more of the Three Thousand Great Daos. It seemed that he had reached a limit in the dark.

If he wanted to break through this limit, he had to advance to the Longevity Secret Realm and become an Eternal Giant.

Just like his lifespan, it was already nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years when the Golden Core was cultivated. No matter how he cultivated now and improved his realm, it was impossible to increase it. This was the rule of the Eternal Life Law, unless he broke through to the Longevity Secret Realm and became an Eternal Giant, then the limitations of lifespan and cultivating divine powers would disappear.

Since there was no way to cultivate new divine powers, then he would improve the existing divine powers again.

And the best thing to improve now was the Great Acupoint Opening Technique, using the Great Acupoint Opening Technique as the foundation to drive the others.

The acupoints of humans number as many as one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred, as brilliant as stars. Among them, there are three hundred and sixty-five major acupoints, which is the special method of the Great Acupoint Opening Technique.

Generally speaking, it is only necessary to open and cultivate the major acupoints, but wanting to cultivate all the acupoints is simply impossible, because the resources required are too much, making people shrink back.

In the human body, the acupoints are like the stars in the sky, countless. Each acupoint corresponds to a star in the sky, so the Great Acupoint Opening Technique and the Great Star Technique are very compatible and can be combined, just like the Great Blood Soul Technique and the Great Soul Technique, the Great Five Elements Technique and the Great God Sealing Technique.

Every Three Thousand Great Daos, if carefully studied, putting all the skill points and resources on it, relying on one Three Thousand Great Daos is enough to run rampant, just like this Great Acupoint Opening Technique.

Every acupoint in the human body is a divine treasure of the human body. Opening an acupoint is equivalent to opening a door to potential, and you will gain a divine power.

Of course, this divine power is not that divine power.

For example, the 'Intelligence' and 'Brightness' acupoints, which govern the human body's eyes and ears, as the saying goes, 'sharp ears and bright eyes'. After the 'Intelligence' acupoint is cultivated, the ears are sensitive and can hear sounds that others cannot hear, even fluctuations of divine sense, with the divine power of 'Following the Wind with Ears'. After the 'Brightness' acupoint is cultivated, you can see many things that were originally invisible, with powerful eyesight, with the divine power of 'Thousand Mile Eyes'. The Western Desert Buddhist Sect also has similar secret methods, cultivating the Heavenly Eye, the Buddha observes a bowl of water, and sees one hundred and eight thousand insects.

The 'Fat' and 'Vitals' acupoints contain gloomy energy, which increases over time, and finally becomes terminally ill, and the body dies and the Dao disappears. Cultivating these two acupoints can extend lifespan.

The 'Earth Extremes' acupoints are located on the left and right of the Yongquan acupoint on the feet. After cultivation, there will be a subtle induction between the human body and the earth. Using earth-type divine powers will be more powerful, as easy as using your arms and fingers, as if it were a natural divine power, just like Luo Mo using the Demon God Flower and naturally mastering the power of earth, water, wind, and fire.

Another example is the 'Valley Spirit' acupoint, located in the stomach. After cultivation, it can quickly refine various vital energies. The Valley Spirit is the gate of life and the root of the viscera, supplying vital energy, and it is best to cooperate with the Great Devouring Technique.

And the most critical acupoint in the Great Acupoint Opening Technique is the 'Profound Pass'.

'Covering the extreme of emptiness and stillness, there is no return to my body, but I feel ethereal and dark, united with heaven and earth, and the divine energy is brewing in the middle, which is the most wonderful place for cultivation, so it is called the Profound Pass acupoint.'

The Profound Pass acupoint is the final hurdle of the Great Acupoint. Because it is not in the body but outside the body, it is a connection point between the inner heaven and earth of the human body and the outer heaven and earth. Just cultivating this acupoint can allow people to borrow the power of the Dao of Heaven and Earth, as if Heaven and Earth are blessing the body. Opening an acupoint is equivalent to a secret technique, a kind of vision.

In the past, it was just pure cultivation. Because he had too many various Great Dao secret methods, Luo Mo did not study it carefully. Today, he re-cultivated the Great Acupoint Opening Technique and carefully comprehended it, and found that this Three Thousand Great Daos was so mysterious, as if it encompassed everything.

Not cultivating the Shrouding Heaven Law.

Not cultivating the Eternal Life Law.

Just using some of the principles in the Great Acupoint Opening Technique, Luo Mo felt that he could evolve a new cultivation method for his Ming Realm believers.

By the way, he could also directly shake out one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred secret techniques, there are secret techniques for cultivating 'Following the Wind with Ears', there are secret techniques for cultivating 'Thousand Mile Eyes', and there are also secret techniques for health preservation, which encompass everything.

Every Three Thousand Great Daos, every refinement is a broad avenue.

Just as Luo Mo had the idea of passing on the Acupoint Opening Method to the Ming Realm, in the void, strands of the power of luck were added to his body, making his already prosperous luck burn as fiercely as adding fuel to the fire.

Boom—

The outside world trembled, but it did not transmit into the Undying Dragon Spear.

Purple Dragon was originally excavating chaos day after day, using the Unique Horned Jade Dragon Drill secret technique that he had pondered out. Suddenly, he dug through something, and the entire Undying Dragon Spear fell into a peculiar world.

This was a world filled with immortal light. After entering, the road behind was blocked by the flowing chaos, but Purple Dragon did not pay attention to the road, but looked at this not-small Chaos Immortal Soil and exclaimed.

"Damn! So much Arctic Immortal Light!"

Above this Chaos Immortal Soil, strands of clear and light immortal light filled the sky, looking at least hundreds of thousands at a glance.

Purple Dragon was shocked by the full view of the Arctic Immortal Light. They had been searching for so long, but only found more than two thousand strands of Arctic Immortal Light, and here, they were all over the sky!

Did they dig into the nest of the Arctic Immortal Light?

It took him a while to recover, and then he wanted to ask Luo Mo if he was very happy, but found that Luo Mo was still in the immortal cocoon woven from immortal light, in deep cultivation, without any movement, and it seemed that he had reached a critical moment. The phantom of his physical body was revealed from the immortal cocoon, and the sound of blood rushing like thunder, coming from inside, he should not be able to wake up for a while.

Well, I am the only one to enjoy the good news, it's too lonely, right?

Purple Dragon sighed and roamed in the Chaos Immortal Soil, checking the situation here, but there were no other creatures here. It seemed to be a small world conceived with chaos as the placenta, and there were no traces of outsiders coming here. They were actually the first to discover this place.

Suddenly, Purple Dragon felt that the ground of this Chaos Immortal Soil was a bit wrong, and the protruding mountains had a familiar feeling.

And he used to be a dragon vein.

"Damn!"

He cursed again, "So many dragon veins!"

On the heavy and turbid ground, nine huge dragon veins were crawling on the earth, and nine-colored rosy light steamed out from the nine dragon veins, accompanied by various visions.

In the black rosy light, there was a dragon-shaped swimming.

In the crimson rosy light, there was a divine phoenix weeping blood.

In the green rosy light, there were immortals shedding tears.

In the golden rosy light, there was a great Dao descending calamity.

…

And in the center of the nine dragon veins, there was a tranquil immortal land, the rosy light was like pearls and jade, auspicious air steamed up, forcing open the Arctic Immortal Light in the sky.

"What amazing thing have we encountered?"
