Chapter 194: [Parting Token, Primordial Dragon Eagle] (First update)

~11 min read 2,147 words

Besides his cultivation, Lu Runping had sorted out quite a bit of information during this time and obtained the coordinate location of the Danming Realm, one of the three thousand small worlds, which Huo Yikun had preserved when he ascended.

Currently, besides the Yuanshuo Realm from which he ascended, this was the first small world location coordinate he had mastered.

This meant he could begin arranging for the Lu Family Immortal Clan to enter a new world to complete their bloodline inheritance.

The barrier between the upper and lower realms was closed, making it difficult to open a spatial channel, but the barriers between lower realms were not that great. With Lu Runping's means, opening a spatial channel was not difficult.

Four years ago, Lu Runping sent out a branch of over ten thousand people to enter the Danming Realm to develop.

The Lu Family Immortal Clan emerged in another world!

With the appearance of the Lu Family Immortal Clan in another world, the Lu Family's bloodline inheritance gained an extra layer of insurance.

Now, the Lu Family Immortal Clan had reached a peak situation in the lower realm, possessing forty-two Land Immortals. This force was enough to unify the entire Yuanshuo Realm, ensuring that no one could resist.

But the outside world knew nothing about this; their information was still stuck at the level of the Lu Family having six Land Immortals.

The era of being high-profile had passed; the next strategy for the Lu Family Immortal Clan's development was stability.

This time, going to the Danming Realm, he sent ten Land Immortals in one go to escort them, ensuring that the ten thousand clansmen there could smoothly obtain resources and carry out the inheritance.

And Lu Runping intended to continue with such arrangements.

He was also planning that if he could create a new avatar, he would let the current Lü Gong avatar enter the lower realm.

With an independent dimensional space as a "transit station," the barrier between the upper and lower realms would be equivalent to no obstacle for Lu Runping.

With avatars spread across the whole world and karma overlapping three thousand realms, let's see who could plot against his main body then!

With the existence of the Treasure Mirror, as long as he kept lying low, he would eventually be able to step into the realm of the invincible!

However, for now, he still had to explore first, looking for items that could serve as vessels for his avatars.

Without a vessel, the 【External Incarnation】 supernatural power could not be activated.

To be precise, even if activated, the resulting avatar would not reach the True Immortal level.

Therefore, today, he proposed his departure to Huo Yikun.

"Having troubled you for over two hundred years, I have nothing to repay you with. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will certainly repay this karma to you, fellow Daoist."

Lu Runping said sincerely.

He did not directly take out the Dao Seeds, mainly because after becoming an immortal, one would certainly be more sensitive to things like Dao Seeds.

Lu Runping discovered that they had the effect of helping to condense Dao Cores; this alone was a supreme treasure for True Immortal-level cultivators.

For someone like him, alone and just ascended from the lower realm, taking out such things was too abrupt.

Going out to wander and then taking them out upon return would be very reasonable.

One Dao Seed per person was enough to repay the karma.

Hearing these words, before Huo Yikun and his wife could speak, Huo Miaolan couldn't help but say:

"I'm going with you!"

Was this eloping with her lover in front of her parents?

Lu Runping didn't want to bring a drag-along. Walking the cultivation world alone, at worst he could hide in the dimensional space; even if he died, it would just be an avatar.

But if he brought Huo Miaolan, given the karma with the Peach Blossom Sword Immortal couple, he couldn't let her die; it was too inconvenient.

Seeing Lu Runping reveal a troubled expression, Sun Minghui couldn't help but ask:

"Does the little friend have any difficulties?"

Lu Runping said bluntly:

"I have been fond of taking risks all my life. Wherever I go, there is danger. Alone, I can be fearless—this is my Dao. But if I bring Miaolan, I will have concerns. I fear the path of cultivation will become difficult, and I fear even more that she will be harmed.

Therefore, I don't want to take her with me. At least, this time, I cannot."

Hearing that Lu Runping didn't intend to take her, Huo Miaolan almost cried on the spot.

But hearing his subsequent words, she was somewhat moved.

"But I really want to go out and see, see the outside world."

Huo Miaolan whispered.

At this moment, Huo Yikun spoke up.

"Exactly, Minghui and I also intend to go out. This time, we will take Miaolan out together. You are a heaven-sent genius with many opportunities and dangers in your future. You possess great luck and can pass through safely, but others face various risks.

You refusing to take her is correct; otherwise, even if you agreed, we wouldn't."

Lu Runping nodded and smiled:

"That would be great. However, if you leave, it won't be easy for me to find you again. Could you give me a token?"

Before Huo Yikun and the others could say anything, Huo Miaolan took the hairpin from her head, her waterfall of hair cascading down, framing the shy face of a beauty.

"Take this; with it, you can find us!"

This hairpin was not simple; it was refined from one of Sun Minghui's branches. It was a Ten Thousand Year Peach Wood Hairpin and already possessed the foundation to become a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure.

Or rather, after years of nourishment, it was about to transform into a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure.

Lu Runping knew this girl had some feelings for him, but the path of cultivation was full of temptations. She had just seen too few people; perhaps after this experience, she would become more mature.

Without being coy, Lu Runping took the hairpin, put it into his storage ring, and then smiled:

"Fellow Daoist! We shall meet again!"

Saying this, he turned into a golden light and left without looking back.

After a long while, Sun Minghui came to Huo Miaolan, who was still standing foolishly, quietly watching the direction Lu Runping had disappeared in. She patted her shoulder and said softly:

"He is a genius, a true heaven-sent genius. In the future, he will achieve the Mysterious Immortal realm, or even reach the Golden Core realm. He has his own Dao, and his heart for the Dao is very firm. If you want to stand by his side, you must work even harder to at least see his back."

Huo Miaolan came to her senses upon hearing this, hugged Sun Minghui, and suddenly burst into tears.

She had never tasted the bitterness of parting with anyone. How could she have imagined that the first time she parted with someone, it would be with someone she had spent over two hundred years with.

The time they had spent together would always become an indelible light in the depths of her heart.

——

Lu Runping's first target was the Nether Silence Gate. Currently, the information he had mastered about the Earth Immortal Realm was still too little, so he needed to understand more.

In the Nether Silence Gate, there were not many people, and their strength was within the range he could handle; it was the most suitable place to learn information.

Other places were too far away, and there was no need to provoke them.

The mountain gates were all in the mountains and rivers. After flying for four days, he arrived at the location of the Nether Silence Gate.

But to his surprise, what he saw when he arrived was a ruin.

In the sky not far away, two figures were fighting fiercely.

The aura on their bodies had clearly reached the Mysterious Immortal level; one was a human cultivator, and the other was a fierce beast.

A "fierce beast" could be an adjective, but when it became a noun, it represented a group of exotic beasts that did not transform, did not cultivate Immortal Spirit Qi, did not cultivate Demon Power, but cultivated physical supernatural powers and suppressed everything with endless essence qi.

Generally speaking, those who did not cultivate Immortal Spirit Qi or Demon Power to evolve into True Immortal-level existences were fierce beasts.

Cultivators refined essence into qi, and qi into spirit; of the three—essence, qi, and spirit—refining spirit was the highest pursuit, but in reality, refining qi was the main source of power for immortals.

The lower realm cultivated Spirit Qi, and the upper realm cultivated Immortal Spirit Qi; essentially, both were refining qi.

Fierce beasts, however, walked the path of "refining essence."

Inside their bodies was also qi, but it was essence qi; they entered the Dao through essence qi, and their physical bodies evolved supernatural powers.

For example, this fierce beast that looked like a goshawk; its supernatural power was the golden light flashing on that pair of claws.

He didn't know what kind of supernatural power that was, but its power was extremely strong, and it had completely suppressed the human cultivator opposite it.

Lu Runping had no intention of stepping forward to help.

The strength of this fierce beast might have reached the level of a Five-Turn Mysterious Immortal or higher, which was not something he could deal with.

It had nothing to do with his karma, so there was no need to force himself into it.

After about an hour, the human cultivator was torn to pieces by the fierce beast.

No matter what means he used, he couldn't block the fierce beast's power, couldn't block that golden light; everything was in vain.

One force overcomes ten techniques!

While this goshawk fierce beast was eating the person, Lu Runping had already arrived on the back of the goshawk fierce beast through the 【Standing Without Shadow】 supernatural power, then transformed into a small insect and drilled into the feathers of this fierce beast.

With the 【Embryonic Transformation】 and 【Covering the Sky and Sun】 supernatural powers to hide his aura and karma, and the 【Size as Desired】 supernatural power to change his size, he easily hid in the feathers of this fierce beast.

For stability, he even specifically tied himself to a feather.

A moment later, the goshawk fierce beast flapped its wings and flew high, heading toward an unknown place. Lu Runping didn't know where he would go either.

But it didn't matter.

Originally, he wanted to go to the Nether Silence Gate to ask about the situation, but plans couldn't keep up with changes. Who could have thought that this Nether Silence Gate had provoked such great karma and was actually wiped out!

Even the Mysterious Immortal realm ancestor was killed.

Lu Runping felt there was no need for him to go looking for other places. This fierce beast would definitely go to another place. Although he didn't know where, he had no destination himself, so he might as well follow it.

If possible, obtaining a portion of its essence blood would also allow him to obtain the transformation form and supernatural powers of this fierce beast.

It flew for a long time.

A Mysterious Immortal realm fierce beast flew for sixteen days; one could imagine how far this distance was.

It arrived at a cliff.

This was a very high mountain, fully eight thousand four hundred zhang tall. The summit reached into the clouds, and within the clouds, there was a nest—a nest built using huge trees as materials.

Without a doubt, this was the lair of this goshawk fierce beast.

However, when it returned, it let out a mournful cry!

No other reason, it was because its home had been raided.

In the nest were the corpses of three small goshawk fierce beasts, clearly without any aura.

The goshawk fierce beast clearly knew who had done it. It rose in a rage and flew away from the cliff, but Lu Runping stayed behind.

After the goshawk fierce beast left, he immediately refined the essence blood of one of the small goshawk fierce beasts, obtaining this transformation ability, as well as the physical supernatural power of that golden light.

It turned out that this fierce beast was called a "Primordial Dragon Eagle," rumored to have once fed on flood dragons, though this generation was clearly a bit weaker.

That golden light supernatural power was "Rending Void Golden Light," a very ordinary name because it was named by the fierce beast itself; its intelligence was not high, so such a name was already considered not bad. ===== CHAPTER 195 =====
