Chapter 158 The Power of the Primordial Spirit i

Li Cheng didn’t use the Void Snow Sword or the Life and Death Demon Dragon Bow, but simply threw a punch.

What seemed like a casually thrown punch sent the Hidden Earth Dragon flying over ten miles away, a scene that left everyone astonished.

One by one, their eyes widened in disbelief as they watched Li Cheng.

He clearly possessed the peak cultivation of a Heavenly Immortal, yet with only the power of his flesh, he could easily launch the True Immortal Realm Hidden Earth Dragon so far?

Feng Wanli and Qin Wuhun landed simultaneously, their horrified gazes sweeping over Li Cheng’s figure.

They had been almost always by Li Cheng’s side during this period, yet they had no idea he had become so powerful!

Over ten miles away, the Hidden Earth Dragon picked itself up, its ferocious gaze piercingly fixed in the direction of Li Cheng and the others before it plunged into the ground and disappeared without a trace.

Li Cheng glanced at the spot where the Hidden Earth Dragon had vanished, a slight surprise in his heart—the gravity had made the ground here incredibly hard, yet it had managed to escape easily!

Moreover, after withstanding his punch, it was hardly injured; the strength of its physical body was comparable to an Immortal Artifact!

“Are you all okay?” Qin Wuhun and Feng Wanli landed and asked in unison.

Yun Fuxue and the others nodded, but their amazed gazes still lingered on Li Cheng!

A trace of surprise flitted across Yun Fuxue’s clear eyes, and soon a smile appeared on her stunning face, “Thank you, Master Li, for your help!”

“Wow, you’ve become terrifyingly powerful!” exclaimed Feng Wanli with his tongue wagging.

Li Cheng took a few steps forward, cupped his fists towards Yun Fuxue and her companions, and then turned his attention to the two refined middle-aged men. The one exuding an aura of scholarly charm must be Shu Wangjuan.

The other, similarly refined but with an even more ethereal aura, had to be Hua Bufan.

“Let me introduce them, this is Li Cheng, renowned throughout the Southern Domain and the Eighteenth Elder of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect,”

“This is Shu Wangjuan from the Confucian Sect, and this is Hua Bufan.”

Qin Wuhun, stroking his beard, made the introductions.

“We’ve met before, Li Cheng—thank you for your assistance, Taoist Friend Li!” the two men said in salute.

“It was a mere trifle; you are too courteous!”

Yun Fuxue put away her chess pieces, a fleeting smile on her stunning face like a flower of this world, “I had no idea that in just two months’ time, your strength has reached such an astounding level, all thanks to you.”

Shu Wangjuan put away his writing brush, inwardly heaving a sigh of relief, “It’s a fortunate thing that Taoist Friend Li could come!”

“Enough with the flattery. What did you do to provoke a True Immortal Realm demon beast?” Feng Wanli asked.

Curious, Hua Bufan looked at Feng Wanli, “I’m more curious as to whether you have left your Immortal Body in the Taoist Mysterious Sect? Or has your Immortal Body been destroyed?”

“Haha, who would hide their Immortal Body and let their Immortal Infant wander around? This fellow’s Immortal Body has been destroyed by someone from the Central Continent!” laughed Qin Wuhun.

Feng Wanli rolled his eyes; clearly, the other was taking revenge for the earlier blow to his ego.

“Have Immortals from the Central Continent come to the Southern Domain?” Shu Wangjuan frowned.

There are chaotic zones between the Central Continent and the Southern Domain that make travel no easy task. Even Heavenly Immortals don’t fully trust their ability to cross, and to destroy Feng Wanli’s Immortal Body, one would definitely need to be above the True Immortal level!

The appearance of such a mighty figure in the Southern Domain, one who also destroyed the Immortal Body of another, was surely up to no good.

Feng Wanli nodded, “Li Cheng has scanned the soul, that Tribulation Loose Immortal is a… traitor from a major sect in the Central Continent.” Tribulation Loose Immortal?

Hua Bufan and the others exchanged glances, expressions turning more serious. To escape with only his Immortal Infant from a being of Tribulation levels was indeed fortunate for Feng Wanli.

“Let’s not talk about my misfortune, what about you guys? The Four-sided Lamp Fire Map disappeared in the Misty Forest over a hundred thousand years ago, have you found any clues these past two months?” Feng Wanli said.

“We’ve used the Central Galaxy Map to sense its presence, but to no avail. If it truly is here, the most likely location would be within the city. However, the gravity outside the city exceeds a million times that of normal, and inside the city, it’s even more terrifying. We simply cannot enter,” Shu Wangjuan shook his head.

In such a heavy gravity environment, one needs to adapt slowly, but all of them were Confucian Immortals, and physical strength was their weak point, making adaptation particularly difficult.

Qin Wuhun waved his hand, “It’s different now, with Master Li’s help, we’ll definitely be able to explore the Inner City with ease.”

Shu Wangjuan shook his head again, “It’s not that simple. The Misty City is divided into the Inner City and Outer City. The Outer City is guarded by many True Immortal grade Demon Beasts, and that Hidden Earth Dragon came from the Outer City. I’m afraid the Inner City might harbor even stronger Demon Beasts.”

“Let’s go have a look, the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map might not be in the city but could be somewhere in this forest,” Feng Wanli turned his gaze toward Li Cheng.

Li Cheng nodded, “I’m very interested in the Misty City, let’s check it out first!”

Li Cheng already had a plan; since he was here, he definitely wanted to enter the Inner City to see for himself, especially since it was very likely left by one of the ten remarkable beings, Blunt Empty Venerable.

The best case scenario would be achieving Enlightenment within it!

If he could find the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map, that would be even better.

The six of them set off, braving the increasingly intense gravity as they proceeded.

“We’ve been avoiding Demon Beasts all this way; surely, Master Li, you’ve been scanning our surroundings with your Immortal Sense, haven’t you?” after travelling twenty thousand li, Yun Fuxue asked curiously.

“Really? I haven’t sensed any fluctuations from Master Li’s Immortal Sense,” Qin Wuhun looked doubtfully at Li Cheng.

Yun Fuxue took over the conversation, “That’s because Master Li’s Immortal Sense is far more powerful than ours!”

This statement surprised everyone; the four of them were Confucian Immortals primarily cultivating their Primordial Spirits. In theory, their Heavenly Immortal Complete Primordial Spirits shouldn’t be surpassed by Li Cheng’s Primordial Spirit at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal stage.

Li Cheng smiled, “I’ve been wanting to ask you all about the Confucianism Path; I’ve always been quite curious about it.”

Yun Fuxue replied, “The Confucianism Path is actually quite broad. The most common practice is to enter the path through Guqing, chess, calligraphy, and painting. But regardless of the approach, the primary focus is on cultivating the Primordial Spirit to connect with heaven and earth.”

“Immortal Sense is simply a manifestation of the power of the Primordial Spirit, also known as spiritual power. Using Immortal Sense to probe all things is the most basic application.”

As Yun Fuxue spoke, she gracefully wrote in the air with her slender fingers, and the character for ‘protect’ took form, then flew in front of Li Cheng.

Li Cheng keenly sensed that the laws of nature had been activated!

The next moment, the ‘protect’ character shattered, instantly forming a protective shield around Li Cheng.

“This is one of the rudimentary forms of the Primordial Spirit communicating with heaven and earth, which can be referred to as ‘Pen Attack’. If one’s cultivation reaches an extremely high realm, they could ‘Speak Out With The Law Following’,” Yun Fuxue explained as she waved her hand, and the shield dissipated.

Feng Wanli shook his head, “As the saying goes, ‘all laws lead to one truth.’ Li Cheng, we don’t need to learn the techniques of the Confucian Path.”

Qin Wuhun raised his eyebrows, “Taoist Friend Feng, are you looking down on the Confucian Path?”

“Hehe, the existence of any path has its reasons and merits; how could I look down on any path? But all roads lead to Rome,” Feng Wanli laughed.

Li Cheng too smiled, knowing well that Yun Fuxue intended to guide him onto the Confucian Path.

But as Qin Wuhun said, understand it by all means, but there’s no need to delve too deeply into it.

As for things like Guqing, chess, calligraphy, and painting, he wasn’t very interested.

What Yun Fuxue mentioned, ‘Speak Out With The Law Following’, no matter the path, if taken to the extreme, could be achieved.

If he comprehended enough laws, he could do the same.
