Chapter 299 A Love That's Hard to Find in Gold
Seven marks!!
A look of surprise flashed across Ding Yi's eyes, and then his expression darkened.
I thought I was already at the peak of the Immortal Realm, the Ninth Realm, but I didn't expect that I was only at the Seventh Realm. I have tempered my soul and body with spiritual energy, and I can't even reach the Ninth Realm of the Immortal Realm.
Ding Yi stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.
However, he soon came up with a new idea.
As Qiao Jiuyou once said, the ultimate of immortality is the ultimate of a path. As long as one reaches the limit in a certain direction, one can comprehend a trace of the rules of the heavens. This is the reward from heaven for a skill reaching its limit.
This is what is meant by "skill approaching the Tao".
After much thought, Ding Yi realized that among all his supernatural abilities, his swordsmanship, saber skills, and eye techniques were all quite ordinary; only his external martial arts and fist techniques could be considered outstanding.
But if he had to choose one, Ding Yi would naturally prefer the physical body tempering method.
The reason is simple: as the frequency of returning to the origin increases, he needs a stronger physical body to satisfy it; otherwise, his physical body would shatter before he could even unleash the return to the origin.
"It seems that the next step is to improve my physical training method and push it to its limit."
Upon realizing this, Ding Yi's sense of loss vanished, replaced by a clear understanding of how to proceed. This was far better than having thousands of years of lifespan at his disposal but not knowing how to use them.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi immediately got up, pushed open the door, and went outside the hall.
This magnificent hall was specially given to him by the Guanyun Sect as a place for practicing martial arts and resting.
The entire main hall covers an area of 100 acres and contains dozens of servants and disciples. It is the largest room that Ding Yi has ever lived in.
As soon as Ding Yi emerged, the servants and disciples outside the door immediately knelt down in panic, shouting:
"Boundless Immortal Venerable!"
Looking at the figures in front of him, Ding Yi felt a strange, indescribable feeling.
I didn't realize it back in Qingzhou, since the area was mainly about worshipping gods and martial artists didn't dare to show their faces. So even though I reached the Divine Travel Realm, I only dared to stay in the shadows.
But in Zhongzhou, warriors are revered by everyone.
High-ranking warriors were even granted titles of kings and prime ministers, enjoying extraordinary status.
Once one enters the Immortal Realm, there is no need for official appointment; one is directly appointed as a high-ranking official of the same rank. Therefore, He Weimin's assassination of Ding Yi that day was truly an act of insubordination, and his entire family should be executed.
"Go and fetch these things."
As Ding Yi spoke, he took out a piece of white paper from his sleeve, and immediately a handyman disciple walked over respectfully and accepted the paper with both hands.
On the white paper were written a body-refining technique and some powerful medicines, which were naturally the things Ding Yi needed for his training.
He had finally made up his mind; he felt uneasy if he didn't go all in here.
If you have a cultivation path and a lifespan, wouldn't it be foolish not to go all in?!
At this moment, in Guanyun Town at the foot of Guanyun Mountain.
The town, which was already quite populated, was now bustling with activity.
A large number of warriors and ordinary people flooded into the town in a short period of time, causing considerable housing pressure.
In a restaurant, the room where Ding Yi had stayed was fenced off by the innkeeper, and a huge plaque reading "The Restaurant Where Immortal Ding Once Stayed" was hung above the entrance.
"Shopkeeper, are you selling this chamber pot?! One thousand taels, I'll offer one thousand taels of silver!!"
"You think you can buy Immortal Ding's chamber pot for a thousand taels? Go eat shit! Shopkeeper, I'll offer three thousand taels!!"
"The chair, shopkeeper, I'm willing to buy the chair for five thousand taels!"
A crowd completely surrounded the restaurant. The owner, overwhelmed by the sudden windfall, was flushed and kept rubbing the hem of his clothes as he watched the frenzied crowd.
Despite the exorbitant prices, no one dared to harbor any thoughts of robbery.
Why? The reason is simple.
Of the goods sold here, the shopkeeper would always send 99% up the mountain to be personally delivered to Immortal Ding.
It's less about buying a chamber pot chair and more about buying a chance to meet Immortal Ding.
The immortals of the Ten Continents of Central Plains are rarely seen, and now that a new one has finally appeared, who wouldn't want to take advantage of this opportunity to become known?
Amidst the commotion, Minister Qiu Baiyu stood to one side with an unpleasant expression, feeling somewhat flustered.
Having offended Lu Xian, his fate is self-evident.
Regardless of the power struggle between the two factions in the court, they all have a tacitly agreed-upon rule.
I will absolutely not touch Lu Xian or his sect.
A common man's anger can spill blood five steps away; an emperor's anger can cause the world to be in mourning; and Lu Xian's anger can turn the world upside down.
"My lord, my lord."
Seeing Qiu Baiyu lost in thought, the guard beside him whispered a reminder.
Qiu Baiyu was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, and then asked:
"Have you found out what Immortal Lord Ding likes?"
The guard quickly said:
"This Immortal Lord Ding is too mysterious. He seems to have appeared in Zhongzhou suddenly. I have asked around, but I have not been able to find out anything about him."
The guard's words made Qiu Baiyu's heart sink to the bottom.
"How's the search of He Weimin's home going?"
"Sir, the copying has been completed overnight, and the ledgers have just arrived."
As he spoke, the man quickly handed a thick booklet to the Minister.
Upon hearing this, the Minister took the account book, flipped through it casually, and was somewhat surprised.
"They do have money."
Have the female relatives registered?
Suddenly, Qiu Baiyu thought of something and asked.
"Everyone has registered, from seventy years old to three years old."
"That's what the guard said."
"If you see Immortal Ding later, present him with the account book and the population register together."
Qiu Baiyu said calmly.
The guard nodded in agreement. In fact, he didn't think that Immortal Ding would care about such a small thing, but he understood that it was just a gesture of sincerity, a gesture of apology.
The Imperial Palace, the Hundred Flowers Pavilion.
Li Wanyun was sitting idly on the small bridge, splashing her white feet on the water.
Since their return from the last mission, when they were shocked to hear that Baihe City had been massacred by demons, they immediately turned towards Zhongzhou.
The members of the Chaotic God Cult are always very perceptive when it comes to impending danger.
In fact, their guess was correct.
After barely managing to sneak across the Qingzhou border, the entire Qingzhou was immediately sealed off, with no one allowed to enter or leave.
She still felt worried about Ding Hai, who was left behind, but when she thought of Ding Hai's ruthless methods, Li Wanyun felt that perhaps those who worshipped the gods should be more troubled.
Just then, a shout came from outside the courtyard.
"The emperor is here!"
Upon hearing this, Li Wanyun immediately pursed her lips, showing no intention of getting up, and remained seated watching the fish pecking at her feet under the bridge.
"Wan'er, Wan'er!"
As soon as Li Xuanji walked in, he immediately smiled and called out to Li Wanyun, who was sitting on the bridge.
"Don't be angry with your father. I'm putting you under house arrest because the outside world is too chaotic. If something happens to you, how can I explain it to your mother?"
Li Xuanji walked to the bridge and sat down on it with Li Wanyun. However, he did not put his feet into the water, but instead sat cross-legged.
Seeing that Li Wanyun did not speak, Li Xuanji smiled and said:
Do you know Ding Hai from Qingzhou?
Upon hearing Ding Hai's name, Li Wanyun paused slightly, then looked at Li Xuanji with a puzzled expression.
Upon seeing this, Li Xuanji immediately laughed:
“I see you’re of marriageable age, and I think he’s a good match.”
Li Wanyun was immediately puzzled.
This Li Xuanji never cares about her own affairs, and she was placed under house arrest as soon as she returned. Now she suddenly came over and mentioned Ding Hai to her. What is she planning to do now?
"Wan'er does not want to get married before the turmoil in the Great Liang is quelled."
Li Wanyun shook her head and said.
"Wan'er, your father will naturally handle matters concerning Daliang. How can you, a young woman, be so prone to fighting and killing all the time?!"
"Are you going to follow your cousin's example and risk entering the temple to worship the gods?!"
Li Xuanji snorted coldly at this point, and continued:
"I've already made arrangements for you. Tomorrow morning, I'll have someone pick you up and take you to the Guanyun Sect!"
"Ding Hai is now at the Lu Xian Realm, and countless women are eyeing him. If you miss this opportunity, don't blame your father for being heartless!"
