Chapter 804: Changqing True Person

Taihuazhou, atop Wanfa Peak.

“It’s a dual certification.”

Huanglong Daojun’s eyes revealed a hint of regret.

The Green Lamp of Rendeng Buddha was an absolute killing move against those ascending to True Person.

Just say it.

Touch it and you die!

Yet in such a dire situation, Li Rui achieved dual certification, forcibly carving out a sliver of life from utter despair.

Xiang Tianzhi’s eyes concealed even more lethal intent.

“When this man attains True Person, I must go see just how strong he truly is.”

Now Li Rui has become a True Person.

Even if he were a dragon emerging from the sea into the heavens, with three Daojun guarding Baiyu Jing, even he would find it hard to act.

Previously, when he split his spirit, karmic ties were still light, but once he crossed into True Person, even he could not act without risk—if karma turned against him, it would not be a minor matter.

There was no need anyway.

Huanglong Daojun withdrew his gaze.

Failing to kill Li Rui was regrettable, but it would not stain the heart of a Daojun.

As Xiang Tianzhi said, since he can no longer kill him now, he might as well wait until Li Rui attains True Person to strike.

There will be many more opportunities later; no need to rush now.

Thus,

He would gain even more of the Immortal Dao’s primordial source.

Xiang Tianzhi’s resentment toward Zhuge Ming deepened further; he snorted coldly: “When Zhuge Ming uses his Immortal’s gift again, I’d like to see how many years he has left to live!”

After three hundred years, Baiyu Jing produced another True Person cultivator.

“Congratulations, Lord Li, on ascending to Body Integration!”

“Hail, Changqing True Person.”

The elders and disciples of Baiyu Jing, upon hearing Li Rui had planted the Dao Seed, all came together to Changqing Peak to offer their congratulations.

As the saying goes, more gifts never offend.

In days past, who would dare set foot on a True Person’s cave?

But since this was a joyous occasion of advancement, even a True Person would surely be far more lenient.

To leave an impression on a True Person was a great fortune.

Li Rui confirmed this himself.

He did not shut himself away or hide his glory in darkness; he accepted the congratulations from all directions with calm openness.

“Fengfeng True Person has arrived.”

Li Rui, seated in Changqing Hall, heard a clear voice ring out from outside.

Changqing Peak had become far livelier now.

As a True Person, there was no need to be utterly alone.

He had taken in several promising young talents as outer disciples on Changqing Peak to handle mundane affairs for him.

The words had barely finished.

In walked Fengfeng True Person, smiling and bowing: “Congratulations, Lord Changqing.”

Previously, Li Rui had been a junior; now he stood at the same realm. Calling him “Little Li” would no longer be appropriate—even if their relationship was good, it might breed resentment.

Li Rui: “Senior Fengfeng.”

Hearing Li Rui still address him as senior, Fengfeng True Person waved his hand: “Among cultivators, we judge only by realm. From now on, let us address each other as Daofriend.”

“Very well, Daofriend Fengfeng, please sit.”

Li Rui did not insist on formality.

The elders and disciples outside the hall, seeing Fengfeng True Person seated, felt even more unsettled.

Fengfeng True Person was the most senior and influential of Baiyu Jing’s Eight True Persons; his personal visit alone affirmed Li Rui’s status.

“Lord Changqing, Body Integration is divided into Initial, Mid, Late, and Great Completion stages—the difference lies solely in the depth of your understanding of the Dao Seed’s divine powers.”

“When you fully comprehend the great divine power until it becomes instinct, you reach the stage of becoming a Daojun.”

“But ‘fully comprehend’—it is hard. Extremely hard.”

With that, Fengfeng True Person let out a soft sigh.
