Chapter 172
"Junior wants to spread the martial arts cultivation system."
"It's not impossible."
Cangqing Immortal observed Lin Yuan for a while and said seriously.
With Cangqing Immortal's late-stage Dao Fusion realm, he naturally could see the immense potential in Lin Yuan, which could be described as unbelievable.
Such a figure, once in the Spirit Realm, would easily step into the Dao Fusion realm. He might even have a chance to touch the realm above the Dao Fusion realm, overlooking the Spirit Realm.
Facing such a seed of Immortal King, suppressing or killing him would be the most foolish choice.
Because it would be meaningless—succeeding would bring no benefits, and failing would be a disaster.
So, making friends was the best choice. Even if they couldn't become friends, they must never offend him.
Lin Yuan wanted to spread the martial arts cultivation system in the Central Divine Continent. This would definitely have an impact on the immortal cultivation system. That's why Mu Qingliu dared not agree, no matter what.
If he agreed, how would he explain it to the ancestors of the sect after entering the Spirit Realm through the Ascension Platform?
However, as the strongest in the Spirit Realm among the Daoist Immortal Sect, Cangqing Immortal was qualified to make this decision.
"Hmm?"
"Can martial arts be spread?"
Hearing Cangqing Immortal's words, Lin Yuan looked somewhat surprised.
Originally, he thought that at least he would have to have a showdown, demonstrating his strength, and finally threatening the extinction of the Daoist Immortal Sect's lineage in the Central Divine Continent to negotiate and eventually reach some agreement.
As for what would happen if the Daoist Immortal Sect reneged later? As long as Lin Yuan didn't ascend to the Spirit Realm, the Daoist Immortal Sect wouldn't dare to renege.
Even the Lord of the Blood Demon could live for hundreds of thousands of years. As a being far surpassing the Lord of the Blood Demon, Lin Yuan could live for millions or even tens of millions of years. Of course, this was an external perception.
In fact, Lin Yuan would have to return to the main world in a little over two hundred years. But only Lin Yuan knew about this. The Daoist Immortal Sect and even the ancestors of the Spirit Realm were unaware of this.
Even if Lin Yuan disappeared, they would only think that Lin Yuan was hiding in some corner, quietly observing the situation in the Central Divine Continent.
"Ah?"
Mu Qingliu was a little bewildered.
Did Senior Cangqing just compromise?
What about the 'bold words' he said before?
Mu Qingliu couldn't understand, but he knew that every move the ancestor made had deep meaning. Since he said so, he must have discovered something.
"That's right."
"The Central Divine Continent is just one of the millions of lower realms in the Spirit Realm. It's nothing. For geniuses like Junior, the real stage is the Spirit Realm."
Cangqing Immortal said gently.
This made Mu Qingliu feel somewhat uncomfortable for a while.
"The Spirit Realm."
Lin Yuan glanced at the 'coordinates' of the Spirit Realm on the Gate to the Myriad Realms.
In the future, if he encountered any bottlenecks, and couldn't overcome them with ordinary travels, he could go to the Spirit Realm for a stroll.
"What do I need to do?"
Lin Yuan asked directly.
Although Cangqing Immortal appeared kind and friendly, Lin Yuan was clear that the other party couldn't be a great person.
"It's simple."
"In the future, when Junior ascends to the Spirit Realm, help the Immortal Sect once if possible."
Cangqing Immortal said.
This wasn't an unreasonable request. First of all, the phrase 'if possible' left a lot of room for maneuver, mainly depending on whether Lin Yuan wanted to help.
Cangqing Immortal knew that dealing with geniuses like Lin Yuan, one must never set overly harsh commitments.
"No problem."
Lin Yuan nodded.
He vaguely felt that Cangqing Immortal was 'pleasing' and 'investing' in him. There weren't even any basic restrictive conditions; Lin Yuan was completely optional whether he wanted to help or not.
But no matter what, his goal was achieved.
"How to ensure it?"
Lin Yuan asked the key question.
How to ensure that the Daoist Immortal Sect would always allow the spread of the martial arts cultivation system?
"I can make a Dao oath."
Cangqing Immortal said without hesitation.
"A Dao oath?"
Lin Yuan was slightly puzzled.
"Junior may not know. A Dao oath is made in the name of the great Spirit Realm consciousness. Even Immortal Kings dare not violate it."
Cangqing Immortal explained with a smile.
"When I make a Dao oath later, attracting the attention of the Spirit Realm consciousness, Junior will know."
After Cangqing Immortal finished speaking, his expression became slightly serious.
"I, Cangqing, swear in the witness of the great Spirit Realm consciousness." Cangqing Immortal roughly repeated the promises related to ensuring the spread of martial arts cultivation.
After listening, Lin Yuan did not find any problems. At least Cangqing Immortal did not play any word games.
In fact, the other party couldn't tamper with this. Since they wanted to befriend Lin Yuan and saw his future potential, they still had some sincerity at least.
Not afraid of facing a fate of irreversible calamity?
However, for Lin Yuan now, these were not constraints.
Every time he transmigrated, it was a descent of consciousness.
What is consciousness? It is the core essence beyond the soul.
Whether it's the sixth rank, the seventh, or even the eighth, it would involve the soul, but it's difficult to affect consciousness.
Lin Yuan was clearly dissatisfied with these twelve directions of the seventh rank, but still chose to forcefully break through.
Apart from the fact that it wouldn't affect his own body much.
More so, because the sixth and seventh ranks have a qualitative difference.
Even if the seventh rank is mediocre, it is still the seventh rank. At this realm, what one sees, thinks, knows, and desires surpasses the sixth rank.
If Lin Yuan were to step into the seventh rank, he could completely rethink the path of martial arts evolution from the sixth rank to the seventh rank.
In the main world, the evolvers that have the strength of the eighth or even the ninth rank. With such heights, establishing a pathway of potential for the third, fourth, and fifth ranks is not difficult.
Time slowly passed.
A hundred years flashed by.
Since Lin Yuan had a good talk with the ancestor of the Daoist Immortal Sect, Cangqing Immortal.
The White Jade Pavilion has seen unprecedented development, and even began to cooperate complementarily with the Daoist Immortal Sect.
The Sect Master of the Immortal Sect, Mu Qingliu, personally came to White Jade Island and discussed many matters with Jun Dongjin and Mu Lian'er.
Mu Qingliu's intention was to invite Jun Dongjin to become the next Sect Master of the Immortal Sect.
Jun Dongjin wasn't interested in this. Since he spent a hundred years on Mangya Mountain, Jun Dongjin saw through the so-called struggle for power. He liked the environment of White Jade Island now, so he refused Mu Qingliu's invitation.
And in the final discussion, Jun Xiaoyao succeeded as the next Sect Master of the Immortal Sect.
Jun Xiaoyao is Jun Wuji's elder brother, and their bloodline is very close, meeting the requirements of Cangqing Immortal for the next generation Sect Master of the Immortal Sect.
Far to the west.
This place is deeper than the wilderness. There is almost no spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so few people come here, even the resilient beasts don't usually stay here.
And now.
On a giant rock.
There was indeed a figure lying.
"Seventh rank."
"I didn't expect there would still be world suppression?"
Lin Yuan felt somewhat helpless. Decades ago, he was infinitely close to the seventh rank, but after attempting to break through, he indeed felt the suppression from heaven and earth.
"No wonder there were many great powers that surpassed the limit of Void Refinement tens of thousands of years ago, but there wasn't a single one in the Dao Fusion realm."
"Until the appearance of the Ascension Platform, those powers who ascended to the Spirit Realm gradually entered the Dao Fusion realm."
Lin Yuan sighed.
"What to do."
"I don't want to enter the Spirit Realm through the Ascension Platform."
Lin Yuan pondered.
Without knowing the situation on the other side of the Ascension Platform, Lin Yuan didn't want to take risks.
Moreover.
Even if he wanted to enter the Spirit Realm.
Lin Yuan would also enter the Spirit Realm through the Gate of the Myriad Worlds, entering with his consciousness.
This method can perfectly integrate into the Spirit Realm and not be deliberately targeted.
"The so-called world suppression is not an absolute barrier to breaking through to the seventh rank."
Lin Yuan thought to himself. Over the past few decades, he has been trying to understand methods to evade world suppression, and now he has some clues.
"Take it slowly."
"There is still more than a hundred years."
Lin Yuan wasn't in a hurry. As long as he breaks through to the seventh rank within the maximum residency time.
Time slowly passed.
Another hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.
At the end of the East Sea, it was still an endless ocean here.
In theory, no one should come here, after all, there is no spiritual energy, and cultivators wouldn't even spare a glance.
As for ordinary people? They couldn't even reach here.
Above the ocean, there are many threats like tsunamis and giant beasts that ordinary people can't resist.
However, at this moment.
A small boat was drifting on the calm sea.
Hum! An inexplicable aura began to spread from within the small boat, spreading in all directions.

I need POWAAAA :D
