Chapter 320: Observing The World And Comprehending The Great Dao
Ice Cicada Forest.
Yan Xiyun’s body was slowly being absorbed by the ground.
After a long time, her body completely sank into the ground.
Before long, a small head popped out from the ground.
After making sure that the surroundings were safe, she jumped up.
“How scary. Why are these people killing people so easily? I’m glad I wasn’t in the sky or I’d be dead.”
Yan Xiyun felt a lingering fear.
“I was just asking for directions. Why did the other party attack me? Could it be…
That it is taboo to ask for directions outside? Impossible. I’ve never heard of it. It’s best to continue asking for directions. I also have to prepare some means. I need to pretend to be dead more convincingly.
But this person feels very strange. He’s like a person without feelings. Which race is he from?”
Yan Xiyun pondered for a moment and came to a conclusion.
“It seems to be someone from the Heavenly Human Race. Does that mean that not everyone has returned yet?”
Thinking of this, Yan Xiyun felt that she could still find people of her race.
Then, she began to search everywhere. Whenever she saw someone from the Heavenly Human Race, she would flee.
She would not ask any more questions.
Especially to those stronger than her.
“In conclusion, I won’t ask any questions to these three types of people. I won’t ask questions to those from the Heavenly Human Race, those who are strong, and those who are flying in the sky.”
This way, her life would not be in danger.
…
…
Jiang Lan returned to the Ninth Summit and intended to continue his closed-door cultivation.
He was currently at the early-stage Heaven Immortal Realm.
He wanted to surpass the Heaven Immortal Realm and become a Celestial Immortal.
It should take a long time.
Refining the golden body was one thing, but what was truly difficult was comprehending the dao.
His current comprehension of the Great Dao was far from being recognized by the Heavenly Dao.
Therefore, even if he completed the refinement of his golden body, he would not be able to advance to become a Celestial Immortal.
Jiang Lan took the spirit liquid and watered the vegetative egg and Udumbara Flower. The two of them were still very energetic.
Then, he sat in the courtyard and planned to think about his subsequent cultivation and future arrangements.
He also had to be prepared to deal with other problems. Changes came faster than his plans.
It had been 392 years since he entered Kunlun…
After a pause, Jiang Lan looked at the winter that was about to pass. A year had passed.
393 years into the sect.
On the surface, his cultivation base was at the early-stage Void Refinement Realm, and his hidden cultivation was at the mid-stage Void Refinement Realm.
His true cultivation level was at the early-stage Heaven Immortal Realm.
He had many Dharma treasures and elixirs.
As well as many runes.
There was still the Sage Chapter that he did not dare to open.
He possessed the Deity Position of the Unparalleled Fist God.
He had also mastered the Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel, which was one of the top movement techniques in the Grand Desolate World.
He had also mastered the Power Of Nine Tribulations and Power of Nine Bulls that belonged to the extremity of power across the Grand Desolate World.
Conservatively speaking, he was invincible among early-stage Heaven Immortals.
With a bit of caution, he could kill a mid-stage Heaven Immortal.
He was not certain whether he could deal with a late-stage Heaven Immortal but he should be able to escape unscathed.
However, he was currently still completely not a match for a perfected Heaven Immortal.
As for the powerhouses of the major forces, they all had at least a cultivation base of a Celestial Immortal.
So…
This exemplified how dangerous the Grand Desolate World was.
“Under normal circumstances, it would take more than a thousand years to advance from a Heaven Immortal to become a Celestial Immortal, even if one has a deep understanding of the Great Dao.
If not, one would take two thousand years. I have the Deity Position added to my body and the system’s support. There is also the aura of the Netherworld, and the Goddess Diagram. Perhaps it will only take me a few hundred years.
If I can comprehend the Great Dao and gain the recognition of the Heavenly Dao, then…”
Then his advancement speed would be unimaginably fast.
Perhaps he would be able to reach the gate of becoming a Celestial Immortal in three hundred years.
But…
It was exceptionally difficult.
However, even if it took six or seven hundred years, it still wasn’t something others could compare to.
This was his true cultivation.
He also needed to set a time for him to become an immortal on the surface.
With the cultivation speed of a prodigy, he would be able to progress to the late-stage Void Refinement Realm in another forty to fifty years.
In another 140 years, he would become an immortal.
A total of 180 years.
Adding the existing 393 years.
It would total up to slightly more than 570 years.
He would take it as roughly 580 years.
“I am still 20 odd years faster than a genius. But…
Senior Sister would have already become an immortal a hundred years before me. I can’t delay any longer. I shall settle on this timeframe.”
After making his decision, Jiang Lan didn’t think too much about it and decided to go into closed-door cultivation. When the time came, he just needed to increase his cultivation on the surface.
As for the challenge with Xiao Yu in a hundred years…
He did not even know if Xiao Yu would still remember about it a hundred years later. As for who would be the one listening to the other party, there was not much difference.
As for who would win the challenge, there was actually no suspense.
Xiao Yu could never win.
However, he had to remember to buy an umbrella for Xiao Yu.
It was easy to forget about this after a long period of seclusion.
After that, Jiang Lan brought the vegetative egg towards the Netherworld Cave. He didn’t plan on going out to understand the situation of the various great powers.
Because after the Witchcloud Gathering ended, the return of these people would more or less bring about changes in the situation.
In other words, the situation would take some time to ferment.
Only then would there be clear and updated news.
Also.
The Witchcloud Gathering had just ended, so it was not certain that there were no problems left in Kunlun.
The Heavenly Human Race already knew that Kunlun was special last time. This time, they shouldn’t have left so casually.
The demons also knew a lot about the entrance to the Netherworld, so they probably wouldn’t give up.
Other than trying to rope him in, they should have other backup methods.
Not to mention about the Dragon Race and the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race, even if the Underground Devil Race didn’t understand how special Kunlun was, they wouldn’t remain silent.
If Ba Country came, they would probably return obediently.
The others would more than likely not follow the same.
That was why he did not want to leave the Ninth Summit.
After some time, Kunlun might be able to clean up the remaining problems.
After that, Jiang Lan started cultivating.
He opened the Goddess Diagram.
What he saw was still that white dragon. It was much bigger than before. It should be about to reach adulthood.
At this moment, she was circling the Jade Pool, cultivating.
Jiang Lan withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes to cultivate.
He began to temper his Golden Body.
Refining the Golden Body was different from refining the Immortal Body.
Immortal Bodies were tempered by immortal power.
As for tempering one’s Golden Body, one would have to use his immortal power to guide his Dao to begin tempering his Immortal Body.
Through the tempering of the Dao, one would gain a Golden Body.
Only then could one become a Celestial Immortal when one’s Dao was acknowledged by the heavens.
The strength of one’s comprehension of the Great Dao could determine the speed of tempering.
Although Jiang Lan’s comprehension of the Dao was slightly stronger than ordinary Heaven Immortals, it did not speed the process up that much.
But he had many things.
He could still increase the speed of advancement.
However, comprehending the Dao was still the most important matter. The fortuitous opportunity that the inn had obtained last time was also useful now.
…
After he started cultivating, Jiang Lan resumed his previous pace.
He read books during the day and returned to the Netherworld Cave at night to cultivate.
However, he had changed his reading location. During the day, he brought the books halfway up the mountain.
He would often watch the sunrise and sunset and watch the clouds roll by.
Hundreds of years ago, he had seen flowers bloom and wither, and heard the sound of rain falling.
However, during these two periods, the things he wanted to see were already different.
In the past, he looked at things, but now, he looked at the world.
At that time, he could calm his mind by looking at things. Now, he could observe the world and comprehend the Great Dao.
Did he gain any benefits?
He did not gain anything.
However, if he stayed and watch, he would one day be able to see clearly.
Sometimes, enlightenment only lasted for an instant.
He was neither anxious nor impatient. He treated everyday normally and did not need to care too much.
It was the same for cultivating and comprehending the Dao.
He would advance step by step.
During the third year, Jiang Lan, who was sitting halfway up the mountain, suddenly heard a dragon roar.
A beam of light appeared in the direction of the Kunlun Great Hall. Within the beam of light, a dragon’s shadow appeared.
On the other side of the dragon shadow, sword intent suddenly appeared.
The two sides confronted each other without giving in.
Jiang Lan knew that the negotiations weren’t going well.
It was similar to his engagement with Xiao Yu.
This was the Eighth Prince’s problem.
