Translator: 549690339

Nighttime draws near, and the bustling Tiandu gradually quiets down.

High above in the sky, the bright moon hangs, casting its radiant moonlight across the horizon. Stars twinkle inconsistently, unable to ever compete with the brilliance of the moon.

Pei Xuanjing put on a Daoist robe and sat cross-legged atop a jade platform in a pavilion of Baiyun Temple. The battle during the day did not cause much fluctuation in Pei Xuanjing’s emotions. Even with the execution of a long-planned scheme, he remained mostly unfazed, considering it little more than a natural progression.

His heart tranquil as water without a hint of ripples. His rhythmic breathing in and out matched the cycle of the moon’s illuminations. It is as if he had become one with heaven and earth, allowing the moonlight to drape over him like a layer of silvery gauze, emanating an aura of sanctity.

However, this leisurely tranquility didn’t last long, soon shattered by a voice.

“Taoist Friend, you remained so calm despite what you accomplished today; I can’t help but admire you, ” the voice broke in.

Pei Xuanjing let out a sigh, slowly opened his eyes, and calmly said, “Master Guan, you’re exaggerating.”

Daoist Xuanming, the Master of Baiyun Temple, leapt onto the jade platform and sat on another meditation cushion, shaking his head and smilingly said, “I am not exaggerating your divine power displayed today, not a bit.”

Indeed, there was no exaggeration in his intention. His admiration for Pei Xuanjing was wholehearted.

Despite his pre-existing estimation of Pei Xuanjing’s abilities, Daoist Xuanming was still astounded when Pei Xuanjing truly showed his strength, for it was as if he was of the divine realm.

Furthermore, after witnessing the two moves Pei Xuanjing used against Prince of Xiang, Zhu Yousong, Xuanming speculated that even if he were in Zhu Yousong’s place, he might not necessarily be able to withstand them.

Even more intriguingly, Xuanming suspected Pei Xuanjing might have held back, not truly exerting his full power.

“Seeing your cheerful look, it seems like you’ve gleaned quite a lot from the Blood Demon, Yang Tinghe!” Pei Xuanjing began with a smile.

Upon leaving the Imperial City, Jiang Bin wanted to take Yang Tinghe again but was rejected by Pei Xuanjing, which aroused Pei Xuanjing’s suspicion.

However, he didn’t have the time to keep an eye on Jiang Bin right now. He merely brought Yang Tinghe back to Baiyun Temple and handed him over to Daoist Xuanming.

Bai Xiaosheng would typically be the best choice to extract information from Yang Tinghe, but he was occupied with pressing matters.

Thanks to his heroism that day, Pei Xuanjing had earned King Xing’s trust and remained by his side to make some preparations, thus he couldn’t handle this task.

Pei Xuanjing initially planned to keep Yang Tinghe in Baiyun Temple for the time being, waiting for Bai Xiaosheng to take over after caring for his affairs.

But as soon as Daoist Xuanming saw Yang Tinghe, he became interested and suggested giving it a try himself, possibly obtaining secrets from Yang Tinghe’s body.

Upon someone volunteering, Pei Xuanjing, of course, had no objections. As long as Yang Tinghe wasn’t killed or turned into a fool, everything else was fair game.

Daoist Xuanming gave a slight smile, “You really are formidable, Taoist Friend.”

Indeed, he had acquired much information from Yang Tinghe, carrying immense significance that could stir a storm no less tumultuous than today’s events, had it been disclosed.

“Is there anything discovered?” Pei Xuanjing curiously inquired.

If the rumors about this Blood Demon were true, then he undoubtedly held a significant secret.

Apart from this secret, what surprised Pei Xuanjing even more were Daoist Xuanming•s techniques.

Only two or three hours had passed since Xuanming had taken over Yang Tinghe and he was already making progress probing the secret. This efficiency was indeed terrifying.

Pei Xuanjing inwardly thought: Baiyun Temple had a profound relationship with the former dynasty and received great favors. Looking at it now, they seemed to have obtained quite a few things after the demise of the former dynasty.

Daoist Xuanming knew nothing of Pei Xuanjing’s conjecture, but even if he did, he would only respond with a slight smile and not take it seriously.

The ability for Baiyun Temple to withstand all odds was due to their trump cards. What was revealed today was simply the tip of the iceberg.

He subtly uttered, proffering a question, “Have you, Taoist Friend, ever heard of the tale of Earth Immortal?”

Earth Immortal!

“Of course, I have!”

Pei Xuanjing raised his brow slightly. How could he possibly not have heard of the Earth Immortal path?

According to his speculation, the future path to Becoming Immortal should fall into five categories, corresponding to Heaven, Earth, Man, God, and Ghost.

“Could it be that this Blood Demon mingling within the court is related to the Earth Immortal Path?” Pei Xuanjing wondered.

“Indeed!” Daoist Xuanming affirms, “Years ago, the Blood Demon, Yang Tinghe, planned for decades in the shadows of the court to accomplish one thing that, if achieved, might have made him an Immortal.”

“Oh?” Pei Xuanjing curiously inquired.

Daoist Xuanming uttered slowly, revealing the mysterious phrase: “Meld body with Blessed Land for longevity and immortality.”

Meld body with Blessed Land for longevity and immortality!

Boom!

Upon hearing those words, Pei Xuanjing had a sudden realization. The puzzle that had been a bothering mystery in his mind was finally solved, and he burst into hearty laughter: “Ha ha ha…” In this instant, he finally understood the profound meaning of the Forbidden Place, the Blessed Land.

The so-called Forbidden Places, Blessed Lands, and the rare items.

The so-called Forbidden Places and Blessed Lands should be known as Cave Heavens, and the rare items should represent the core and authority of these Cave Heavens, also deemed as ‘Taoist Fruits’ of Cave Heaven.

These continuously appearing Forbidden Places and Blessed Lands with rare items are exactly the Cave Heavens necessary for the Earth Immortal Path, as mentioned in the Netherworld Book which Pei Xuanjing obtained after completing the simulation in Zhenwu Mountain.

In the past, Pei Xuanjing had made a mistake believing that the Cave Heavens, the Blessed Lands, were profoundly influential mountains and great peaks, causing him to instinctively think that those powerful practitioners of the Earth Immortal Path had chosen to merge their bodies with these mountains and peaks. Even though he had once entered a Forbidden Place, a Blessed Land himself, he had not discovered anything unusual.

Only now did he come to the sudden realization that these Cave Heavens, Blessed Lands, were not only represented by influential mountains and peaks, but are essentially the lands formed by supreme divine abilities.

After all, the world, no matter how vast and broad, does have its limits.

Every which one of the renowned mountains and peaks that could be referred to as Cave Heaven, Blessed Land, were occupied by prominent forces, and were home to numerous mighty practitioners. It would be nearly impossible to seize control of one.

Not to mention the cultivators who aren’t backed by a power trying to acquire a Cave Heaven, even the mighty practitioners within major forces would find that the sacred mountains and fertile lands they occupy were scarce.

Compared to choosing a piece of Cave Heaven, Blessed Land, to cultivate one’s Daoist principle with personal magical powers, the latter seemed much more fitting.

Only by doing this will they be able to create a Blessed Land, Cave Heaven, that is most compatible with their own Daoist path and capable of sustaining it..
