Chapter 458: Using the Body as a Furnace, Melting Myriad Daos! [Two-in-one, extra update]

Dao Rhyme Space, myriad Great Dao stars appeared before Li Rui's eyes.

"The Dao of Slaying Dragons?"

Li Rui felt the Great Dao before him, which made him feel incomparably intimate.

He had dragon-shaped true qi.

This Dao of Slaying Dragons could also be considered a relatively suitable Great Dao for him.

In fact, most martial artists, from the moment they chose their qi form, basically determined the direction of their future Great Dao, at most with some differences in details.

Just like Yuan Yuan Dingting, who raised gun-shaped true qi, comprehending the Great Dao of War related to the killing of the long spear.

According to what the spirit of the small old man said.

This Dao of Slaying Dragons had produced many extraordinary great figures in its ancestral generations.

And not just slaying dragons, its killing power was also the same as sword cultivators, both being in the top tier.

It could be considered a good choice.

But just when Li Rui was thinking about whether to comprehend the Dao of Slaying Dragons—

A chill that seemed to come from an ancient ice cave rose from the soles of his feet, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Li Rui was shocked.

Seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster!

This was precisely another effect of the Great Dao Induction Chapter.

Avoiding the struggle of the Great Dao.

Completely avoiding it was naturally impossible, but if it was almost a dead end, the Great Dao Induction Chapter would warn him.

This was a warning.

Clearly, the Dao of Slaying Dragons involved a struggle of the Great Dao that could not be spoken of.

And that existence was extremely powerful.

To the extent that even the Great Dao Induction Chapter warned him.

Li Rui couldn't help but rejoice that he chose the inheritance of the Master Wanshou Daoist.

This Daoist, who lived for a very long time and wore out countless strong enemies, although his combat power was not good, he truly had methods in avoiding disaster.

Otherwise, after choosing and getting involved in great cause and effect.

By then, it would be too late to regret.

Li Rui decisively gave up the Dao of Slaying Dragons and continued to search.

Searching like this took a year.

"The old who do not die are called immortals; immortal, the migration of longevity..."

"Cultivators from ancient times all seek to obtain the Dao and become immortals; obtaining the Dao is for struggle, becoming an immortal is for non-struggle; but if I only desire to become an immortal, what does it matter if I obtain the Dao or not?"

On Mount Changqing Peak.

Li Rui, who was meditating with his eyes closed, had his thoughts flying.

This year.

He had seen thousands of Great Daos.

Either magnificent and majestic, or bizarre and inconceivable.

The more he saw, the more Li Rui felt that these were not his Dao.

The spirit of the small old man had also said.

When the world was at its beginning, there was no Dao; it was only after there were myriad spirits that there was Dao.

Which meant to say, the Dao was walked out by people.

Li Rui decided to use his own body as a furnace to create his own Dao.

It sounded very poetic, but in fact, calling it a dead end was not an exaggeration; walking a path no one had walked before meant being destined to hack through thorns and thistles, and it was bound to be extremely difficult.

Ordinary cultivators wouldn't even think about it.

After all, comprehending the existing Great Dao was already extremely difficult; who would dare to gamble a hundred years of time on an ethereal Great Dao?

And even if he walked through it, it wouldn't necessarily be better than the Great Dao comprehended by predecessors.

Once he wasted his time, he wouldn't even be able to seek the Heavenly Phenomenon.

Let alone the future.

Li Rui was not smarter than those predecessors.

He just had something to rely on.

Anyway, he had already comprehended the Qingxuan Great Dao and could take that step at any time.

It was extremely good if he could comprehend it; if not, it didn't matter.

He also never forced himself into a dead end.

And he possessed dual forms, one of which was an unprecedented immortal form.

At first, he just felt it was novel.

But as his cultivation grew, his knowledge became wider, and only then did he understand the special nature of the immortal form.

He had once asked the spirit of the small old man sideways.

Even in the memories of the Master Wanshou Daoist, there was no such existence.

Even a Daoist didn't know.

Its power went without saying.

Li Rui's dragon form evolved into the Qingxuan Dao, so what kind of Great Dao should the immortal form be?

Since there was no Great Dao among the myriad that could correspond, he simply created his own.

Time flew by.

It was another autumn.

This year, a major event happened in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Prince Wei Zhu Gan, who was originally in charge of guarding the spirit mine, was transferred back to the capital, and the one replacing him was the Thirteenth Prince, Prince Yue.

The Thirteenth Prince was only fifty or so.

Unlike princes like Zhu Gan who had already stepped into Below Tongxuan and were in the prime of their lives, his coming to the spirit mine had more symbolic meaning.

After all, seven or eight spirit mines had been discovered in the world one after another.

The spirit mine of the Ten Thousand Mountains was no longer special, and after many years of operation, it had become stable; a Thirteenth Prince coming here showed the Emperor's will, and also had the meaning of tempering.

"Your Highness Prince Yue."

Li Rui, Yuan Xiong, and Ke Liu Chuan bowed to the young man in front of them.

Prince Yue Zhu Qi was not as arrogant as his Fifth Brother; he was very respectful to the virtuous: "Several lords don't need to be overly polite, I am unfamiliar with the place, and in the future, I will have to rely on you several lords."

This time, although he also brought personal guards and occupied one of the four garrisons.

But wanting to manage the spirit mine well.

Still had to rely on the three "local snakes" in front of him.

Saying this.

He also focused on Li Rui.

"Lord Li, Fourth Brother asked me to bring a few words, you come with me to the mansion to discuss in detail."

Seeing this scene, Ke Liu Chuan blinked.

He had long heard that the Fourth Prince and Li Rui had an extraordinary relationship; now looking at it, it was true!

No wonder it was rumored that Lord Li of Qinghe had eyes and ears reaching the heavens.

Actually being well-acquainted with the Fourth Prince.

Li Rui: "Obey."

Seeing this, Zhu Qi looked helpless: "Lord Li truly doesn't need to be overly polite, in the future, you and I can treat each other as friends."

As soon as this was said.

The expressions of the other soldiers guarding the spirit mine became even stranger.

Treating a prince as a friend.

This treatment was rare in the entire Yu Kingdom imperial court.

Li Rui still had a humble and respectful appearance, following Zhu Qi to the former Prince Wei's Mansion, now Prince Yue's Mansion.

Walking into the courtyard.

Zhu Qi then spoke, sighing lightly: "Lord Li, this time I was ordered by Father Emperor to go south; when leaving the capital, Fourth Brother specifically told me that when I come to the spirit mine, I can discuss everything with Lord Li."

Li Rui couldn't help but blink.

He had heard that the Third Princess of the Witch Kingdom, Xia Yun, and that Fourth Prince were a harmonious couple.

The Fourth Prince thought so highly of him; without needing to think, it must have been influenced by Xia Yun.

Li Rui: "Your Highness Prince Yue, guarding the spirit mine is a national affair, I am naturally duty-bound."

Zhu Qi narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although his life experience was not rich enough, he also heard the meaning in Li Rui's words.

The matter of the spirit mine was his business, but others... were none of his business.

Thinking of the real reason why his Fifth Brother was transferred back to the capital, he had a feeling that Li Rui was reminding him not to do things that broke the rules.

Zhu Qi: "Lord Li's words are reasonable."

He didn't want to follow in his Fifth Brother's footsteps.

Afterward, he humbly asked Li Rui for advice, and until late at night, Li Rui then left.

When Li Rui returned to his residence.

Yuan Xiong was already waiting in the courtyard; seeing Li Rui return, he then spoke: "This Thirteenth Prince looks much more obedient."

Li Rui smiled slightly: "Time reveals a person's heart; Prince Wei was also quite law-abiding when he came."

Mentioning Prince Wei.

A playful look appeared on Yuan Xiong's face: "Could it be that he failed his breakthrough and went crazy, actually killing two genius disciples of the Qingwei Sect and the Nanhua Sect; heard that he has already been ordered by the Emperor to return to the palace and be grounded, never to leave the capital in this life."

Li Rui shook his head with a smile.

The imperial court suppressed this matter extremely hard, but several of them guarding the spirit mine naturally knew some inside information.

Heard that the Emperor was furious because of this matter.

But after all, he was his son, so it was impossible to truly hand him over to the Qingwei Sect to be killed.

Family affection and bloodline were only one thing; the key was that the imperial majesty could not fall.

A prince committing a crime and being punished the same as a commoner was impossible.

Even the most enlightened emperor couldn't do it; if a prince could be killed by law, couldn't a minister also restrict the emperor by law?

Precisely because of this, even if Li Rui took action against Zhu Gan, he would never do it in the open.

Of course.

The Qingwei Sect couldn't let it go so easily.

On the surface, it was calm, but underneath, they definitely paid a heavy price.

Didn't see Gu Gu Changsheng come personally.

That Prince Wei was now completely cut off from the possibility of competing for the Crown Prince.

Li Rui shook his head secretly: "Still too impatient."

Only a hundred or so years old, and he went crazy after failing his breakthrough; if he had slowly planned for another hundred years, perhaps the result would have been different.

He didn't think there was any problem with Zhu Gan doing whatever it took for the throne and the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm.

It was just that his determination was not enough.

He was also secretly surprised by the Qingwei Sect's ability.

Just providing a little situation, they actually found it, and looking at the Emperor's performance, it must be ironclad evidence.

The whole thing was almost from the role of a bystander.

No matter who it was, they couldn't see his role in it.

In fact, involving a prince, and Zhu Gan had already done the deed.

He at most accelerated the development of the matter; the result had long been destined.

The only thing he could do was perhaps send a letter to Gu Gu Changsheng before Zhu Gan's incident.

Informing the Emperor one step ahead of the Qingwei Sect, so that the imperial court had enough preparation and wouldn't be too passive while being kept in the dark.

It could be considered fulfilling his duty as a Qingwei Sect stationer.

As for more, it was not something he could do.

Zhu Gan returned to the capital; it was estimated that he would find it hard to even be a noble prince in this life.

Calculated this way.

Li Rui indirectly brought down a prince?

Zhu Gan was transferred away from the spirit mine.

The first change was that Li Rui spent several times more time in the spirit mine than before.

The number of times he went to Prince Yue's Mansion was even more visibly frequent.

Ke Liu Chuan's position had clearly been replaced by Li Rui.

Everyone in the spirit mine saw this matter.

Li Rui had clearly become the most influential person among the four garrisons.

In Prince Yue's Mansion.

Zhu Qi was extremely polite to Li Rui as if treating a good friend: "Lord Li, Father Emperor's order, the spirit mine will be divided to the Qingwei Sect once it is completed; this matter still needs you to worry more."

Li Rui was still as humble as ever, without the slightest overstepping because of Zhu Qi's good attitude.

It was not that he was afraid, but it was just his consistent way.

The higher one is, the more cautious one must be.

This matter was easy to say, but when it came to doing it, there were few who could reach Li Rui's level.

"Your Highness, I have already made arrangements with the Qingwei Sect, rest assured."

Hearing this.

A flash of surprise crossed Prince Yue Zhu Qi's eyes.

Often heard that this Lord Li handled things properly; now looking at it, it was indeed so.

Handling things beautifully was nothing more than being early.

Early, then one could be beyond expectations.

Zhu Qi admired Li Rui even more.

He was extremely anxious on the way to the spirit mine; after all, he was not like his several brothers, never having held real power.

But with Li Rui's assistance, he could be much more at ease.

Who wouldn't like to have such an old man helping to handle things?

After finishing the matter.

Li Rui then took his leave.

In fact, there was no difference to him between Zhu Qi or Zhu Gan; the difference was only in their different identities.

Zhu Gan's maternal family was powerful, and he was cultivated as a Crown Prince since childhood.

He had countless brave men under his command.

His temper naturally couldn't be too good, and being arrogant was a common thing.

And who could be sure he was truly reckless?

At least from the news Li Rui heard from the capital, that Fifth Prince seemed to have become a different person after returning to the capital, staying indoors and cultivating his character all day long.

The Zhu Qi before him was also the same.

Being humble was only because he had suffered cold treatment for many years; his true temperament would only be truly known in the future.

None of those who walked out of the imperial palace were good people.

Li Rui walked out of Prince Yue's Mansion.

Returning to his residence.

He began to cultivate again.

"We martial artists should first raise three parts of ruthless qi; if heaven doesn't give it, then snatch it from heaven!"

Words spoken by He Qiannian when teaching the Great Great Henglian appeared in Li Rui's mind.

Precisely by relying on the true meaning of the Great Great Henglian did he raise the Dao Embryo.

Now it was the same.

Li Rui saw illusory red flames rising around his body, and his physical body was refined like a great elixir.

Correct.

Li Rui intended to use his body as a furnace to forge and melt myriad Daos.

To achieve his own Dao.

The Dao that only desires to become an immortal!

With more understanding of the Immortal Cultivation World, he also knew that even in the Immortal Cultivation World, great beings who ascend were rare to produce one immortal in ten thousand years.

Wanting to live as long as heaven is difficult, difficult, difficult.

Even if Li Rui possessed a supreme constitution, he had to dig his potential to the extreme to ensure he could ascend to immortality.

It was completely worth spending more time now.

Qingwei Sect, Su Xuan Yu Peak.

Su Xuan Yu Hall.

The voice of the Purple Yang Old Daoist echoed in the great hall: "Senior Brother, I know your anger at the death of Junior Nephew Chang, but for the sake of the big picture, let this matter go."

Killing intent filled the Su Xuan Yu Daoist's eyebrows.

"Let it go?"

Purple Yang Old Daoist: "That Zhu Gan is a prince of the Yu Kingdom, and the Yu Kingdom has already compensated one-tenth of the spirit mine; Master said, let it end here."

Hearing the word "Master," Su Xuan Yu took a deep breath.

He also knew.

With Zhu Gan's status, he had already done his best; even the Qingwei Sect couldn't let the Yu Kingdom imperial court execute a prince.

Zhu Gan should now be living a life worse than death.

"I understand."

The Su Xuan Yu Daoist returned to calm: "Then was it found out why Zhu Gan wanted to harm Su Xuan'er?"

This matter was personally presided over by Su Xuan Wei.

The Su Xuan Yu Daoist didn't participate in the whole process, so he knew very little.

Purple Yang Old Daoist: "Zhu Gan failed his Heavenly Phenomenon breakthrough, don't know from which demonic cultivator he learned the method of eating blood..."

He didn't continue.

Su Xuan Yu would definitely understand.

Simply put, Chang Su Xuan was eaten alive by Zhu Gan.

Hearing the words "eating blood," killing intent rose again in Su Xuan Yu's eyes.

Who in the Qingwei Sect didn't know that he, Su Xuan Yu, hated evil as much as a foe; he didn't know how many demonic cultivators died in his hands, never expected that his own disciple died by demonic means.

Is this cause and effect?

The Su Xuan Yu Daoist only felt like laughing.

"Alright."

He waved his hand.

Seeing this, the Purple Yang Old Daoist felt relieved instead.

He didn't expect his senior brother to be so easy to talk to today; he originally planned to grind his lips and tongue, but it seemed it wasn't needed now.

"Senior Brother, then Junior Brother will go find Master to report."

The Purple Yang Old Daoist's eyebrows showed joy.

He quickened his pace and walked out of Su Xuan Yu Hall.

After the Purple Yang Old Daoist left.

The Su Xuan Yu Daoist then sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

Until the next morning.

Only then did he slowly open his eyes, and then walked out of Su Xuan Yu Hall, all the way down Su Xuan Yu Peak, and out of the Qingwei Sect.

Then he took out a magic treasure.

Flying toward the horizon.

A moment later, the Su Xuan Yu Daoist arrived at a small fishing village by the South Sea.

If there were people in the small fishing village, they would definitely recognize this Daoist who often fished by the sea and returned empty-handed.

Su Xuan Yu familiarly took out the fishing rod.

Then sat cross-legged, quietly fishing.

He was once a fisherman, but because his temperament was violent, he rarely had a harvest.

Later, he met an immortal affinity and worshipped under the door of the Great True Person Qing Ding.

At that time.

The Great True Person Qing Ding only had two disciples, him and his senior brother, so he took great care of the two; the Great True Person Qing Ding saw that Su Xuan Yu's temperament was unstable, so he told him to fish every day to cultivate his character.

Therefore, whenever Su Xuan Yu felt his inner demons were about to arise, he would come here to fish.

This had been a hundred years.

But just when the Su Xuan Yu Daoist was fishing.

An air vortex suddenly appeared behind him.

Afterward, a young Daoist appeared out of thin air behind him.

The Su Xuan Yu Daoist felt the aura behind him, and a flash of disgust crossed his eyes.

North Pole Demonic Sect, Ji Lei.

Ji Lei looked at the back of the Su Xuan Yu Daoist fishing with a smile: "Daoist Su Xuan Yu, have you thought it through? Those who are not of our race must have different hearts; the Qingwei Sect is ultimately not the same Dao as you."

The disgust in the Su Xuan Yu Daoist's eyes grew more.

This cultivator named Ji Lei entangled him a few years ago during the incident of the supreme spirit mine.

The North Pole Demonic Sect was the holy land for all demonic cultivators and demonic cultivators in the world.

Ji Lei, as a cultivator of the North Pole Demonic Sect, had an extremely keen perception of demonic cultivators.

So Ji Lei recognized from the Su Xuan Yu Daoist's magic that this world-famous Su Xuan Yu Daoist was actually a half-demon.

The so-called half-demon.

Was an extremely special existence.

Born of heaven and earth, between human and demon.

Possessing the advantages of both humans and demonic beasts.

It was precisely for this reason that he was favored by the Great True Person Qing Ding and taken as a disciple.

Ji Lei saw that the Su Xuan Yu Daoist didn't speak, and continued to say on his own: "Daoist Su Xuan Yu, how do you think the world would react if they knew your identity as a half-demon?"

The Su Xuan Yu Daoist's movements finally stopped.

Turning his head.

The killing intent in his eyes was no longer hidden.

"Are you threatening me?"

Ji Lei laughed: "We are all fellow Daoists, why talk about threats? Daoist Su Xuan Yu, I am also a half-demon; only the Immortal Sect Wan Wan Fadian is our destination."

"This realm is ultimately not a long-term matter; the Immortal Gate is about to open; if you are willing, I can think of a way to let you go to the Immortal Cultivation World, where you will have no more of these secular worries."

The Su Xuan Yu Daoist's eyes condensed.

Immortal Cultivation World!
