Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 247: Heavenly Court

"Hmm?!!"

"This palpitation, has Zhong Cang's Invincible Path been completed?"

Zhong Cang broke through while on the road, and as a result, when he crossed the Thunder Tribulation, few people saw it.

However, the Invincible Path involves the power of the mind and consciousness.

This caused those who were once defeated by Zhong Cang or those who were afraid to challenge him to feel a palpitation in their hearts, as if they had lost something.

And that lost power of the mind is the key to Zhong Cang's soul sublimation and transformation.

With them as fuel, Zhong Cang's soul has accumulated enough power.

At the same time, by advancing the soul through the Invincible Path, Zhong Cang has gained a special characteristic.

This point is not discussed for now. At this moment, Zhong Cang's thoughts are mostly focused on the derivation of the Yunxiao Palace.

...

As one of the top techniques passed down by Dao Ancestor, the Yunxiao Palace's derivation does not have a fixed style.

It guides cultivators with divine charm to independently derive their own palaces that are most suitable for themselves.

Because people have different experiences and cultivate different techniques, everyone's Yunxiao Palace is naturally different.

At the same time, the Yunxiao Palace is not just a single palace.

If someone comprehends enough artistic conception and covers a wide range, the Yunxiao Palace can transform into a group of palaces.

Just like now, the Yunxiao Palace derived by Zhong Cang is not singular.

"Buzz..."

As the divine charm becomes clear, the Yunxiao Palace begins to derive, and the techniques Zhong Cang cultivates unfold in his mind one by one.

And as the techniques are displayed, a continuous group of buildings emerges in Zhong Cang's consciousness in his inner world.

In Zhong Cang's case, the first thing that derives is not the main Yunxiao Palace.

In the eight directions of Zhong Cang's soul, eight palaces manifest simultaneously.

These eight palaces are Qian Heaven Mansion, Zhen Thunder Mansion, Li Fire Mansion, Xun Wind Mansion...

There is no doubt that this is the Eight Trigrams Diagram.

It is not surprising to see such a scene.

Although Zhong Cang cultivates many techniques, the fundamental methods outside of the arts are mainly the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram and the Heaven and Earth Eight Trigrams Diagram.

As for the Ignorant Heart Sword Art, Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower, although these abilities are strong, they are not fundamental Dao methods, but belong to the category of 'skills'.

法乃是一个人的根本，衍化云霄大殿时，自然是以法为主。

"Boom..."

Just like Opening Heaven and Creating Earth, the eight palaces continuously evolved within Zhong Cang's sea of consciousness.

While they were evolving, gradually, their positions also adjusted.

Among them, the Qian Heaven Palace gradually moved to the center of the divine consciousness, transforming into the Cloud Firmament Palace.

The Kun Earth Palace quietly merged with the earth, becoming the foundation of all things.

Moreover, as the earth that stood equal to the heavens, the Kun Earth Palace not only carried everything, but even the materials of the other palaces displayed the radiance of "earth."

This was not the end; the Kun Earth Palace also had a tendency to transform into the Underworld.

Normally, this would be impossible.

After all, it was already extremely difficult for cultivators to evolve the heavens, let alone the earth. Their comprehension was simply insufficient.

The same applied to Zhong Cang.

Fortunately, the Primordial Origin Limitless Cloud Firmament Diagram had advanced to the third level, triggering Zhong Cang's enlightenment.

In this state, Zhong Cang's comprehension had increased a thousandfold, and his thinking had become extremely agile.

Relying on this increased comprehension, Zhong Cang transferred his insights into death and the origin of the gray mist into the Kun Earth Palace, suppressing them with the Mount Yu Stele.

After death merged with the earth, the myth of the underworld from Zhong Cang's past life involuntarily arose in his mind. As a result, the Kun Earth Palace began to evolve towards hell.

Of course, Zhong Cang's accumulation was still insufficient. His hell lacked the Naihe Bridge, the cycle of reincarnation, and even the Yama and ghost soldiers.

It was more accurate to say that it was a prison rather than an underworld.

Qian Heaven became the Cloud Firmament, Kun Earth transformed into the underworld, and the Thunderous Roar Palace and the Gentle Breeze Palace stood on the left and right, guarding the Cloud Firmament Palace.

Apart from these four, the Kan Water Palace was located in the north.

As the Kan Water Palace evolved, water flowed out of thin air and transformed into a lake, causing the Kan Water Palace to sink into the depths of the water.

At the same time as it sank, the illusion of a mirage dragon appeared in the water palace. With each breath of the sleeping mirage dragon, a majestic mist emerged from the lake.

Slowly, this boundless mist completely enveloped Zhong Cang's sea of consciousness. If others were to enter Zhong Cang's sea of consciousness, they would inevitably be confused and unable to find Zhong Cang's soul.

Of course, this mist could not obstruct Zhong Cang's vision and was under his control.

Just like now, with a thought from Zhong Cang, most of the boundless mist dissipated.

The remaining mist highlighted the ethereal atmosphere of Zhong Cang's sea of consciousness, resembling a fairyland.

With another thought from Zhong Cang, the mist transformed into fairies, walking within his sea of consciousness.

As a heavenly palace, there were naturally guards accompanying the fairies.

This time, Zhong Cang did not let the mirage dragon appear. When the Dui Metal Palace manifested, mighty golden-armored gods stepped out of the Dui Metal Palace one by one.

This is the projection manifestation of Zhong Cang's talent spell: Sprouting Soldiers from Beans.

Fairies, divine generals, when the evolution of the law in the Eight Trigrams Diagram is completed, the law of the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram also begins to evolve.

Because the Five Beasts Infusion Technique is integrated into the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram, the divine generals are one of the phenomena evolved from this technique.

However, this is not the most important part of the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram.

The Five Organ Gods are the core of the Five Organs Divine Palace Diagram. At this moment, the five gods are housed in the five palaces.

At the same time, each palace also has a projection of a Supreme Grade Law Weapon as a treasure for suppressing the path.

The Mirage Dragon resides in the Water Palace, and the Mirage Dragon Pearl is like a real dragon pearl, held in its mouth.

The Exploding Ape sits in the Fire Palace, and in front of it, the flames of the furnace burn fiercely.

The Mountainous Giant Turtle, together with the Mountain Suppressing Stone Tablet, suppresses the prison formed by the Earth Palace.

The White Tiger is stationed in the Metal Palace in the west, and the Ancient Gold Gourd also floats and sinks in the Metal Palace.

There is also the Spirit Deer, leisurely walking in the Wind and Thunder Palaces, and in front of the Thunder Palace, there is a lush tree growing vigorously.

...

The palaces are majestic, the fairy mist is ethereal, groups of fairies gather, and the golden-armored divine soldiers are mighty. There are also the five divine generals, sitting in the various palaces.

Using the Yellow Court Heart Sutra, Zhong Cang's inner landscape evolved in the hollow center, resembling a heavenly palace - of course, a simple and crude heavenly palace.

This situation is not accidental.

Zhong Cang had previously said that the evolution of the Yunxiao Palace is closely related to a person's experience, perception, and insight.

Because of his past life memories, the heavenly palace holds a special place in Zhong Cang's heart.

When he evolved the inner landscape, he subconsciously moved towards this aspect, and as a result, Zhong Cang's inner landscape is very similar to the heavenly palace.

After the evolution of the heavenly palace, Zhong Cang's insight has not ended.

The Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower, Ignorant Heart Sword Art, and other techniques have also merged into Zhong Cang's heavenly palace.

Of course, because they are "skills" rather than "dao" and "law," the integration of these techniques did not cause structural changes to the heavenly palace, but only added some details.

For example, the Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower caused wind chimes to appear under the eaves of the various palaces.

Hmm... well, this technique has a high grade, and Zhong Cang's comprehension is also profound.

As a result, in Zhong Cang's sea of consciousness, in addition to wind chimes appearing under the eaves of the palaces, a heavy and ancient bell has also appeared in the main hall of the Yunxiao Palace.

Outside the bell, there are also two swords and a seal.

Among them, the placement of the sword, the seal, and the bell in the main hall of the Yunxiao Palace is just right, as if they were meant to be there.

Only a sword shadow that penetrates the heavens and the earth does not fit in with its surroundings.

With black cracks covering its blade, it is too terrifying and fierce, somewhat disrupting the peaceful and serene atmosphere of the heavenly palace.

The sword shadow is the manifestation of the Ignorant Heart Sword Art.

Although this technique initially only had an Earth Level High Grade, with Zhong Cang's repeated enlightenment and completion, its level is now not inferior to a Heaven Level.

Especially after comprehending the Eye of the Hell King, this technique has undergone a qualitative change.

With its high grade and Zhong Cang's elevation of this technique to the Grandmaster level of the Five Realms, surpassing the Five Viscera Divine Palace Diagram and the Heaven and Earth Eight Trigrams Diagram, something strange happened.

The Yunxiao Hall derived from two fundamental techniques cannot suppress the Ignorant Heart Sword Art.

This is also the reason why the sword shadow formed by the Ignorant Heart Sword Art is incompatible with the Heavenly Palace.

"However, besides the Ignorant Heart Sword Art, all my other techniques have been integrated into the Primordial Origin Limitless Cloud Firmament Diagram... Truly worthy of being passed down by the Dao Ancestor, this technique is truly powerful!"

Manifesting the soul, Zhong Cang looked at the Heavenly Palace that seemed to be one entity, feeling endless emotions and joy.

The integration of techniques is extremely beneficial for Zhong Cang.

If we were to describe Zhong Cang's cultivation before, it was like hitting a hammer here and there.

Now, Zhong Cang only needs to focus on deriving the Inner Scenery Heavenly Palace.

After all, this world is still only a temporary illusion created by the mind and consciousness.

But as everyone knows, the cultivation of a Qi Refining practitioner is generally divided into four stages: refining essence and transforming Qi, Qi Refining Soul Formation, Soul Refining and Void Refining Dao Integration.

We won't mention the first and second stages. The third stage, Soul Refining and Void Refining, is about distinguishing between the false and the true.

And what is true? Naturally, one's own Inner Scenery Heavenly Palace is true.

With this realm, coupled with the versatile spiritual energy, one day Zhong Cang will be able to manifest the Heavenly Palace in his mind as if it were substantial in the outside world!

"If I can truly achieve this, then I, who control the Heavenly Palace, will be like the Heavenly Emperor, overlooking countless worlds!"

Such a beautiful prospect filled Zhong Cang's heart with imagination.

However, he also knew that it would be difficult to achieve this.

Especially when he thought about the fact that the Heavenly Court has thirty-three heavens, while his own divine soul consciousness only has thirty-three layers.

The Heavenly Court has three hundred and sixty-five true gods, countless constellations, and countless heavenly soldiers and generals, while he only has five divine lords, all the fairies are illusions, and he only has a little over a hundred golden-armored divine soldiers, which is quite pitiful.

Moreover, most of the true gods in the Heavenly Court are true gods who control the rules, while the strongest divine lord on his side has just comprehended the artistic conception...

"In the true Heavenly Court, my so-called divine lords wouldn't even qualify to be heavenly soldiers... No, forget about heavenly soldiers, they wouldn't even qualify to be servants!"

The more he compared, the more Zhong Cang realized how far he was from the true Heavenly Court.

However, this huge gap did not discourage Zhong Cang. On the contrary, it ignited his fighting spirit.

"A ten-thousand-foot building starts from the ground. When the Heavenly Court was first built, there were only a few small gods. The one who built the Heavenly Court from scratch and became the Supreme of the Three Realms, I can do it too!"
