From space to the world, it takes trillions of years

Chapter 255: Immortal Passing Away

Half a year later, on an unknown island deep in the swamp.

The world of immortal cultivation goes through a cycle of four seasons, and it is now early spring.

The isolated island is over 200 mu in area, with a small hill a hundred feet high in the middle.

The lake here naturally will not freeze, not only because it is hundreds of feet deep, but also because there are often powerful monsters passing by.

A figure was sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain. It was Lingyi Zhenren who had been traveling for many years.

There was lush vegetation around the hill, no animals were seen, and birds flew by from time to time.

Wherever there is a foundation-building cultivator, even if not a single bit of his aura escapes, ordinary wild beasts will feel inexplicably irritated and leave on their own accord.

Not to mention that this real person exudes the aura of death, and those who are bright and prosperous try to avoid him.

He had rough white hair that just reached his shoulders, and his face and arms were covered with goose skin, making him look haggard and old.

The body of a foundation-building cultivator is impermeable, and even when his lifespan is about to end, he can still maintain a youthful appearance.

The reason he became like this is naturally because he had lost all hope.

If you look inside his Niwan Palace, you will find that his consciousness is rapidly dissipating, crumbling inch by inch into green smoke and disappearing into nothingness.

Master Lingyi sighed, his thoughts were in a trance, and he began to recall his life.

When he was young, he was selected into the immortal sect with his seven-inch and six-tenths spiritual roots, and soon after, he was cultivated as a foundation-building seed.

After more than forty years of hard training, he achieved the foundation-building stage, and after another sixty years he entered the middle stage of the foundation-building stage.

When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven.

All of their children embarked on the path of cultivation, and their Taoist companions, who had average aptitude, were able to cultivate smoothly to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

The first half of Lingyi Zhenren's life can be described as one of great success and glory.

Then came the bottleneck of the late stage of foundation building, which trapped him for more than a hundred years.

During this period, the Taoist companion failed to establish a foundation and died at the age of 154.

His children and even grandchildren also had limited talents and passed away one after another before him.

Perhaps because of his experience of getting married and having children, Ling Yi is more humane than ordinary foundation-building cultivators.

After several decades, the faces of his wife, sons and daughters gradually became blurred, and those ordinary descendants disappeared from the world.

All the disciples he accepted in his early years were scattered over the years, and in the end only Wang Chonglin was left.

With the protection of such a good disciple, his legacy and bloodline will surely be safe.

Ling Yi had seen the tomb of an immortal not long ago. The owner of the tomb had the same level of cultivation as himself, and he had passed away thousands of years ago.

Judging from the scale of the tomb, the decoration must have been extremely luxurious.

But when he looked, there was only a big black hole in the lake.

Even the dried bones of that senior were no longer known where they were, or perhaps they were refined by a monster to increase his cultivation.

Thinking of this, Master Lingyi tried his best to gather up the last of his true energy and reverse it throughout his body.

The spiritual energy was as heavy as a thread, and with just one impact it dissolved the flesh and bones into fine powder.

The flawless body of the Foundation Establishment Master is now disintegrating bit by bit.

Fish and birds from far and near were startled and flew away, causing ripples on the lake.

The small island was shining brightly, and the blazing white flames were trying to compete with the sun.

Compared to the vast world of immortal cultivation, the foundation-building cultivators who are like immortals and gods in the eyes of mortals will never make any waves in their entire lives.

When he is alive, he has countless lives at his disposal, but his death is just a moment away.

The subtle changes in the celestial phenomena over hundreds of thousands of miles instantly attracted the attention of the Jindan cultivators.

Chen Yu unilaterally opened his perception of the outside world in the space, and a strange scene appeared in front of him.

There are three petals about an inch long, surrounded by tiny dots of bright white light.

This was one of the things he gained from the Dragon King’s birthday banquet.

The art of Xiao Zhoutian's divine expansion is divided into internal expansion and external expansion.

It belongs to the orthodox method of Taoism. It does not damage luck or shorten one's lifespan, but it is extremely difficult to practice.

It is said that it derives the divine secrets externally and immortal spirits internally.

The three petals represent essence, energy and spirit, and are red, dark and purple respectively.

Through the method of inner derivation, one can observe oneself and verify the gains of practice.

There are three thousand spots of light within a one-foot radius around the petals.

If magic power is infused into it, one can capture a glimpse of heaven's secrets and know things that have not been seen.

Long Jun only had two chapters from Qi Refining to Foundation Building. After Chen Yu got them, he used Jianmu to deduce them to the third level.

It's not that it can't be deduced to a higher grade, but it's difficult to use without Jianmu.

Unlike ordinary cultivation methods, this mysterious and wonderful method is something that most cultivators cannot perfect in their entire lives.

The Dragon Lord's talent is already top-notch. Over the past hundreds of years, he has cultivated the art of Xiao Zhou Tian Shen Yan into the second part of Qi Refining and Foundation Building. He can only look on and hesitate if he wants to peek into a higher realm.

It’s like the third-level elixir in Chen Yu’s hand is a fish. How can the value of a fish be compared to the fishing net that can catch it?

This kind of magical second-level method is just right for returning a gift.

The death of a foundation-building cultivator was not a big deal. Chen Yu understood the situation by consuming only a trace of magic power.

In terms of closeness, he is just a passing stranger on my long journey to immortality.

It was also because of his disciple's true character that the two had some contact.

When he learned that the master had returned to the world, he couldn't help but show a trace of emotion.

The soul originates from nothingness and returns to nothingness.

One's cultivation is gained from heaven and earth, and will also return to heaven and earth.

Dust to dust, dust to dust.

Thinking of Luomen Zhenren's unwillingness and struggle, Chen Yu gained a deeper understanding of life and death and choices.

A few hours later, while he was practicing, he felt someone lingering at the door - the area around the weapon refining workshop was filled with various formations.

The grades are so high and the types are so numerous that even a Nascent Soul cultivator would find it difficult to pass by without leaving traces.

As soon as he came out, he saw Master Lan Xuan, whom he hadn't seen for many months, looking at him with a sad face.

Wang Chonglin was almost the last one among the close people to learn about the news of his master's passing.

When Ling Yi went out, he cut off all contact with him. Even the method of tracking his whereabouts based on his aura was ineffective because of his intentional concealment.

When the soul lamps in the sect went out, the disciples told the master.

The headmaster sent him another message and only then did he know that his master was gone.
