Chapter 385

【The upgraded Great Dream Wandering Immortal can connect to the Taixu Dojo through dreams.】

Seeing the four words "Taixu Dojo," Li Rui's pupils shrank fiercely.

Good heavens.

Legend has it that this Taixu Dojo is the place where ancient immortals practiced and realized the Dao, and the Taixu Dojo seems to have disappeared from the world tens of thousands of years ago.

Li Rui's heart was pounding, his mouth dry; even though he was used to storms, his mood couldn't help but be agitated.

Incredible!

Great fortune!

Li Rui didn't hesitate, immediately returned to his room, and fell asleep.

When consciousness revived.

Suddenly raised his head.

The familiar dream cloud platform had disappeared, endless clouds shrouded the surroundings, so thick that almost nothing could be seen clearly.

Fortunately, Li Rui's eyesight was strong enough.

A hundred feet away, he saw a stone gate dozens of feet high, with four ancient and dignified characters engraved on it — Taixu Dojo.

"Really entered?"

Li Rui blinked, unable to believe everything he saw.

One step across.

A breeze from nowhere blew away the clouds and mist in front of him, and golden, brilliant palaces appeared before Li Rui's eyes, ten thousand golden lights rolling in the red clouds, and a thousand auspicious energies gushing in the purple clouds, as if he were in a fairyland.

Under the huge stone gate was a white jade staircase that couldn't be seen to the end, leading to that piece of architecture.

Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly.

He understood a little why there were countless geniuses in later generations, but no one could find this Taixu Dojo.

Just because this Taixu Dojo is clearly between reality and emptiness.

Nowhere to be found.

Only by entering the Dao through dreams.

He couldn't help but sigh at the brilliance of the immortal's means.

Li Rui looked at the white jade stairs, pondered for a long time, and then tentatively took a step.

Only felt the soul shaking.

"Hmm..."

Li Rui sat up in shock from the bed.

Insomnia.

To be precise, it should be dead.

He was very familiar with this feeling.

Frowned slightly.

"Actually so domineering?"

He didn't expect that this white jade staircase looked ordinary, but contained such terrifying power.

"Fortunately, it's a dream."

Li Rui let out a long breath of turbid air.

Once the Great Dream Wandering Immortal is interrupted, one cannot fall asleep again.

He didn't expect his first time entering the Taixu Dojo to end so hastily.

Simply turned over and got up, intending to push the door out to get some air.

But just as Li Rui got up.

His movements suddenly stopped.

Looking inward at his own body, he actually found that his soul had become much stronger!

This discovery shocked Li Rui.

"This white jade staircase actually has the effect of tempering the soul."

It was truly wanting to sleep and having a pillow come.

Li Rui is now in the Primordial Spirit Refinement barrier, and what he needs to do is temper his soul; now with the help of the white jade staircase, the progress must be a thousand miles a day.

"Wonderful!"

Just a moment ago, it was already equivalent to ten full days of bitter cultivation.

Li Rui was in a great mood.

Put on his outer garment.

He pushed open the door.

The cold moonlight fell on him, the weather was slightly cool, and taking a deep breath of cold air, his mind became clear.

Li Rui strolled alone in the courtyard.

Just walking near the gate of the Assistant Regional Commander's mansion.

He saw a figure quietly enter from the side door.

Look closely.

It was Jiang Linxian.

Li Rui was happy: "Brother Jiang, why did you return so late?"

Jiang Linxian was stunned when he saw Li Rui:

"Brother Li, didn't you go to Po Jun Fortress?"

Li Rui smiled.

Jiang Linxian was a Zhenshan Envoy of the Secret Guard, so he told Jiang Linxian everything that happened in Po Jun Fortress.

"The Marquis is still thoughtful."

A Fallen Immortal died in the Purple Chai Jingong, this is a big deal.

Although Po Jun Fortress now has a great expert like Liu Qing sitting in command, it's not guaranteed that they won't be crazy and take Li Rui as a target.

Suddenly.

Jiang Linxian looked at Li Rui with a smile, and said unexpectedly:

"Brother Li, I really didn't misjudge you, you really practiced the immortal method."

Li Rui was shocked.

"Did the Marquis say that?"

Jiang Linxian nodded with a smile, not speaking, but gesturing with a sword finger.

The small sword Tanlang flew out with a swish.

Seeing the small sword Tanlang, Li Rui's pupils shrank slightly.

"Immortal method!"

He actually felt the unique aura of the immortal formula from Jiang Linxian's small sword; although it was not the same cultivation technique as the Five Spirits Body Refining Technique, it was from the same source.

Jiang Linxian smiled slightly and told a secret.

"Actually, a Fallen Immortal is imprisoned deep in the imperial palace."

Li Rui narrowed his eyes.

Sure enough.

The Yu Kingdom imperial court has done many things in unknown places.

He guessed that the Fallen Immortal imprisoned by the Yu Kingdom imperial court might not be just one.

Jiang Linxian continued: "As early as five hundred years ago, the imperial court had already noticed the existence of Fallen Immortals and tried to understand them; until now, a total of five immortal formulas and three immortal treasures have been obtained."

Li Rui curled his lips.

Truly doing big things in silence.

"If Brother Li is willing, you can offer the immortal formula in your hand in exchange for the other five immortal formulas in the Secret Guard."

"This is a privilege only Zhenshan Envoys have, I can help you exchange it."

"Of course, everything depends on Brother Li's meaning."

Li Rui pondered: "I will consider this matter first."

"No problem."

Jiang Linxian waved his hand indifferently, then couldn't help but look at Li Rui again: "Brother Li, do you know why the imperial court has obtained the immortal method for so long, but has never made it public to the world?"

Li Rui shook his head.

Jiang Linxian: "Because only martial artists above Tongxuan can practice the immortal formula, and not all Top Three Rank martial artists can practice it; those below the Third Rank who can practice the immortal formula are even fewer, and in five hundred years, there have been no more than five."

"Brother Li being able to practice the immortal method in the Primordial Realm is truly promising, a true genius."

Li Rui couldn't help but be curious: "Brother Jiang, when did you practice the immortal method?"

"Primordial Realm."

"..."

Li Rui was speechless.

No wonder Jiang Linxian's breakthrough was like drinking water.

Practicing the immortal method is indeed very beneficial to Primordial martial artists, and the speed can be much faster than ordinary martial artists.

Jiang Linxian: "We are people of the Secret Guard, don't worry about practicing the immortal method."

Li Rui felt relieved.

Never expected that joining the Secret Guard would have such benefits.

Listening to Jiang Linxian's words, he felt his horizons broadened; with the improvement of his realm and status, he finally became qualified to come into contact with the secrets of this world.

The secrets hidden by the imperial court must be more than he imagined.

Li Rui wouldn't have the emotion of worrying about the sky falling.

Immortal matters are still too far away from him; if he has time to think about those, he might as well practice more and step into the Top Three Ranks sooner.

He can also have the ability to protect his life when the immortal disaster arrives.

Another night.

The clouds and mist around dispersed.

The white jade staircase appeared again before Li Rui's eyes.

"Thirty-first time."

Li Rui counted silently in his heart.

During these days, he constantly tried to climb the white jade staircase, but every time he ended in failure.

In other words, he had been suffering from insomnia for a full month.

Fortunately, the martial artist's body is tough enough, so sleeping less doesn't matter, otherwise he would have been exhausted.

After so many failures.

Li Rui also gradually summarized some experience.

"Legend has it that this Taixu Dojo was built by the Lord of the Immortal Court, specifically for cultivating genius cultivators; those who can climb the white jade staircase are considered to have entered the gate of the Taixu Dojo, representing the potential to become an immortal."

"In ancient times, I don't know how many geniuses fell on this white jade staircase."

He flipped through many ancient books, which recorded many legends about the Taixu Dojo, including the content about this white jade staircase.

"This white jade staircase was established by the Lord of the Immortal Court to select immortal talents; not only does it have the use of selection, but it is itself a fortune."

"Those who can reach the top of the white jade staircase can receive immortal energy empowerment."

Li Rui looked at the top of the white jade staircase, excitement flashing in his eyes.

He adjusted his state.

Then took a step.

Bang!

This time, he didn't have insomnia in the middle of the night, and his right foot landed steadily on the next step.

Li Rui's mouth curled up slightly.

He didn't rush to step on the next step, but decisively chose to retreat, arriving under the white jade staircase.

Haste makes waste.

With his current state, there was no possibility of success for the next step.

Li Rui never did useless work, but sat cross-legged under the stone gate of the Taixu Dojo and began to meditate and practice.

The Taixu Dojo is a place for immortals to practice.

Practicing the immortal method here is comparable to a real blessed land of the cave heaven.

It is much stronger than the cave under the Qinghe enclosure.

Li Rui naturally couldn't miss it.

He practiced for a full three hours before standing up again, preparing to try.

As expected.

The next instant.

Li Rui sat up from the bed; not bad, sure enough failure.

Looking at the dawn sky outside the window.

"Another new day..."

Deepest part of the Purple Chai Jingong.

A dark room. Si Feng stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the blood pool in front of him expressionlessly.

The next instant.

The originally calm blood pool suddenly began to surge, and in just a stick of incense, a blood person slowly walked out of the blood pool.

Every step the blood person took, a pool of scarlet blood would appear on the ground.

When he walked in front of Si Feng, all the blood faded away.

Revealing the appearance of an old Daoist.

It was Sheng Daoren!

Seeing Sheng Daoren appear, Si Feng said faintly: "If you are reckless again next time, there will be no blood soul for you to resurrect."

Sheng Daoren looked gloomy.

"I know."

If it weren't for the secret technique of the Wan Fadian, the Blood Soul Curse, he might have already died.

!

"Yuan Dingting!"

Infinite killing intent flashed in his eyes.

Although he was resurrected, his strength was greatly reduced again, and it would take at least ten years to recover; having suffered such a big loss, how could he endure it?

Who doesn't know.

He, Sheng Daoren, has a grudge that must be avenged!

"Li Laoge, truly refreshing, Regional Commander Xue took action personally and destroyed a branch hall of the Purple Chai Jingong."

Ning Zhongtian said excitedly.

As soon as he returned to Qinghe after his rotation, he couldn't wait to find Li Rui.

"Truly refreshing."

Li Rui nodded with a smile.

The reason Regional Commander Xue used such thunderous means was naturally because of the Po Jun Fortress incident; although there were not many casualties in the end, the Annan Town lost face, and it was lost to Marquis Yuan, so he had to find a way to get it back.

"Alright, since you're back, practice well, break through sooner, and avoid the suffering of the battlefield."

"..."

Ning Zhongtian was speechless.

The logic is that logic.

But he had just broken through, and it was estimated that it would take at least ten years to touch the threshold of the Primordial Realm.

By that time.

Maybe the war would already be over.

"Li Laoge, your words are too heartbreaking."

Ning Zhongtian left depressed.

Li Rui shook his head with a smile, then returned to his room.

Externally, he had always claimed to be recuperating.

Naturally, it was better not to show his face too much.

Sitting cross-legged.

Li Rui took out a book with a yellowed cover, which was the cultivation technique Yuan Dingting obtained from that evil Daoist.

"Whoa!"

Just after reading a few pages.

Li Rui couldn't help but be surprised.

What an evil technique!

What is recorded here is either refining the Ten Thousand Soul Banner with living souls, or casting a Ghost Bone Boat with white bones, one more evil than the other.

He locked this evil technique into the cabinet without hesitation.

It's not that he is upright, but these evil techniques are all harmful to heaven and reason; he is an official walking the righteous path, no need to degenerate himself and practice that crooked method.

Evil cultivation is crooked cultivation.

It is a cultivator who has taken the wrong path and does not walk the righteous path.

Why not walk the righteous path?

Isn't it because of various reasons, there is no way to walk it.

Li Rui is already on the righteous path, why abandon the root and pursue the tip?

And according to Li Rui's knowledge, too much killing karma may involve too many causes and effects, and when the realm is deep, it will instead be burdened by it.

"It can wait until Brother Jiang returns to see if this evil technique can be used to exchange for an immortal technique."

Li Rui felt this was a good idea.

It belongs to waste utilization.

Withdrawing his focus.

He started practicing the Five Spirits Body Refining Technique.

Practicing the Five Spirits Shield is just the first layer of the Five Spirits Body Refining Technique, which can be considered as having entered the gate.

Now Li Rui is trying the Five Elements True Origin Strike of the second layer.

Once practiced, the killing power can increase by at least fifty percent!

These few days.

He chatted with Jiang Linxian and also learned a lot about immortal cultivation.

For example, some are geniuses in martial arts, but not necessarily in immortal cultivation, such as Yuan Dingting, who entered the First Rank entirely through the martial path; there are also geniuses in immortal cultivation, such as the National Master and Gu Changsheng.

By comparison, Li Rui is actually walking the path of combining immortal and martial cultivation.

Immortal Dao is nature, Martial Dao is life.

Having both martial bones and top-grade spiritual roots, such a physique is almost nowhere to be found in this world.

Li Rui finished practicing.

Then he crawled into the quilt and fell asleep.

The clouds and mist dissipated, consciousness revived.

Li Rui opened his eyes and saw the familiar white jade staircase.

"Come again!"

Fighting intent flashed in his eyes.

However, he still didn't rush to sprint for the second white jade staircase, but sat cross-legged in front of the white jade staircase, continuing to practice the Five Spirits Body Refining Technique until his energy and spirit were full.

Only then did he stand up and take the first step firmly.

The soul impact had no effect on Li Rui now, not only because he was already proficient in this soul impact, but also because Li Rui's soul had improved too much compared to the first time.

Landed steadily!

There were no waves in Li Rui's eyes.

He didn't make a one-time effort, but stopped his steps, and thought for a full half-hour.

Then he lifted his foot again.

This time, the intensity of the soul impact was significantly more violent than the first level.

Li Rui's body appeared to sway slightly.

But his eyes were even more determined.

Bang!

Li Rui's right foot stepped heavily on the white jade staircase.

Second level!

Li Rui's mouth curled up slightly.

Feeling the mysterious power of the white jade staircase washing over his soul.

Enhanced again!

"Very good."

Li Rui didn't want too much, and after walking up to the second level, he didn't take advantage of the situation to continue climbing.

Instead, he chose to retreat as usual.

Perhaps some people like to be unstoppable, but for Li Rui, he prefers to be steady and solid, bringing the role of the Taixu Dojo to the extreme.

But just as he was thinking.

Suddenly, a slight buzzing sound came from behind.

Li Rui turned his head.

Actually saw a small flying sword attacking.

The flying sword was too fast, so even he couldn't react at all.

"Hmm..."

Li Rui sat up from the bed.

Insomnia again.

"No wonder it's a test of the white jade staircase?"

The appearance of the small flying sword appeared in his mind again, thinking secretly.

According to the records in ancient books, the Taixu Dojo does have the function of simulating strong enemies to train cultivators for actual combat.

"It should also be part of the test."

Li Rui couldn't help but rub his eyebrows.

The difficulty of the white jade staircase was higher than he imagined.

"No wonder it's the place for ancient immortal seed selection."

Top-grade spiritual roots were already not bad in ancient times, but the Taixu Dojo was a dojo established by the Lord of the Immortal Court; top-grade spiritual roots were just the threshold for entering the dojo, and extreme-grade spiritual roots were everywhere.

Li Rui didn't belittle himself.

After all, he had just entered the immortal gate and still had a long way to go.

He had already reached the point of seeing the immortal road, so how could he give up easily?

Just as Yuan Dingting said, his strongest point is the heart of seeking the Dao that is as hard as divine iron.

"Li Laoge, I heard that after Regional Commander Xue went to Po Jun Fortress, he didn't leave, sitting in the fortress, and has already conquered three branch halls of the Purple Chai Jingong."

Ning Zhongtian was excited.

These days, there were frequent reports of victory on the front line.

The Annan Town took the initiative to break the stalemate, showing signs of being unstoppable.

Li Rui was thoughtful.

He heard that the great war between the Wu Kingdom and the Eastern Wu also had fruitful results, capturing seven cities, showing signs of unification.

The Annan Town should be cooperating with the military actions of the Wu Kingdom.

Of course, these have nothing to do with him, a Assistant Regional Commander recuperating.

And Ning Zhongtian on the side was a bit depressed.

He finally rotated back, thinking he could enjoy leisure, but never expected that the sky-high credit would just slip away from him like this.

But it was heard that Cao Wei had made a lot of credit on the front line.

Ning Zhongtian heard this and was so jealous.

Wishing he could kill back to the Ten Thousand Mountains right now.

As for Li Rui, he had long passed the stage of fighting for fame.

What he wants is stability.

Already holding the Fourth Rank, going up, either a local big official or a heavy minister in the court, none of which can be achieved by simple credit.

There are more critical things.

And the premise of those things is to have a life.

He only needs to improve his strength with peace of mind.

Another night.

Li Rui came to the white jade staircase again.

This time, he didn't even try to climb, but sat directly in front of the white jade platform and started to meditate and practice quietly.

A flash was three months.

He practiced day and night without stopping, and finally it was effective.

The Five Spirits Body Refining Technique had already seen the threshold of the second layer, just missing that last step.

The Taixu Dojo has rich spiritual energy, which is most suitable for breakthrough.

"This dojo is truly mysterious; although it is in a dream, the spiritual energy obtained is real. I dare not imagine what kind of great power that Lord of the Immortal Court once had."

Li Rui thought while operating the Five Spirits Body Refining Technique.

The spiritual energy in front of the white jade staircase was swallowed by him like a whale, and taken into his body.

Finally.

The spiritual energy in his body reached a certain critical value.

The five-element true qi residing in the five viscera produced a trace of imperceptible resonance, and gradually, the resonance sound became louder and louder.

In Li Rui's body, it seemed like a great bell was buzzing.

"Five Spirits Body Refining Technique, second layer!"
