Cultivation: Being Immortal

Lingqing Star

Liang Long survived, left his physical body, and his soul became immortal.

The dark clouds and thunder in the sky instantly turned into white clouds, and sunlight shone through, casting a holy light upon Liang Long.

From the clouds, something scattered like raindrops, tiny points of light, resembling stars, as if representing the essence left behind by fallen cultivators who achieved enlightenment.

At that moment, the true Buddhas and immortals, who had been waiting for a long time, took action. Some cast spells to gather those star points, while others rushed toward Lingqing Star, trying to claim it for themselves.

These star points are a gift from the heavenly way. After a cultivator becomes immortal, the heavenly way responds and showers down blessings. These are supreme treasures, very important even to immortals. In the agreement between Heavenly Court and Xia Qingshan, it was stated that any cultivators under Xia Qingshan who achieve immortality must submit a portion of their blessings. Xia Qingshan simply did not tell everyone, since it wasn’t his blessings, he did not care.

Although Liang Long did not know the full truth, he could guess much from the actions of the immortals. The immortals moved swiftly, but Liang Long moved even faster. He opened his mouth and inhaled, sucking in countless star points.

The moment the star points touched his soul, Liang Long felt a refreshing sensation. His injuries from the tribulation began to heal, and as his wounds healed, the remaining star points made him even stronger.

Most of the stars were swallowed by Liang Long, who then gave up on Lingqing Star and charged straight towards Xia Qingshan. The experts from Lingqing Star, valuable researchers, and exceptionally talented university students were all taken onto Liang Long’s Space Battleship. Everything else was unimportant.

At this point, Xia Qingshan was already in a terrible situation. He was being beaten, receiving many blows and giving few back. He originally wanted to seize Lingqing Star because if he controlled it and sacrificed billions of lives there, he could gain a great boost.

But Liang Long blocked his way and launched a fierce attack on Xia Qingshan. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Liang Long was newly ascended and did not know celestial techniques. He instinctively used spells, similar to those he had used as a cultivator, but the effects were completely different. Each move had increased in power many times over.

Seeing that his cultivator techniques were still useful, Liang Long thought to himself: since these techniques work, can dark arts be effective too?

Deciding to act, Liang Long immediately used dark magic to try to devour Xia Qingshan, frightening Li Canghai in the distance, who shouted, "Taoist Friend Liang, the Heavenly Court forbids dark magic. Do you want to die?"

"Taoist Friend Liang Long, the essence of immortals cannot be devoured. It will bring endless troubles. If you consume too much, the will of the immortal will confuse your thoughts. You will be unable to refine it and will become a mindless monster, destined to die."

Others explained that the essence of immortals and their will are extremely powerful. Even an immortal cannot fully refine it. If too much is consumed, it will greatly disturb the immortal’s thoughts, ultimately turning them into a mindless killer. Even without the Heavenly Court’s pursuit, they would die without a trace.

Liang Long was someone who listened to advice, and quickly gave up on swallowing the essence under everyone’s gaze. After all, today Xia Qingshan was surely doomed.

Half an hour later, Xia Qingshan completely erased the Soul Fragment of Lingqing Star. It is very hard to kill an immortal; without a strong advantage, it can only be worn away bit by bit. Xia Qingshan has managed to hold on for so long, which shows he is very strong.

However, the war here is not over yet, and the struggle between the immortals and the true Buddhas for Lingqing Star continues. This has brought great disaster to Lingqing Star, as the fighting among the immortals has affected its heavenly balance, causing all kinds of strange and extreme weather to appear. Many ordinary people have died without knowing why.

"Liang Long, you said you would give us Lingqing Star."

A true Buddha blocked Liang Long’s path and shouted at him. He said they were supposed to receive Lingqing Star, but now they had attracted the Heavenly Court. Wasn’t that a trick?

"I’m sorry, but I’m just a small brother. I listened to our Ancestor Lin. He told me that Lingqing Star can be sold like a star, so I sold it to both the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist sect. You can fight over it."

Liang Long smiled slightly and then used magic to leave, making the true Buddha from the Buddhist sect very angry as he stomped around, cursing.

As soon as Liang Long left, the Space Fleet that had been wandering in the distance quickly moved away.

"Start the battle!"

Li Canghai ordered the battle to begin, telling Ming’an and the Buddhist cultivators to fight. With so many skilled Buddhas, they couldn’t let a few of them escape; they couldn’t let Lingqing Star get away either.

Lingjing Star and the Demon Queen are facing their final trial.

Xia Qingshan was furious. The Soul Fragment of Lingqing Star was destroyed, causing him great harm because he had put most of his strength into it. Now, not only was the Soul Fragment here weak, but even the Main Soul of Blue Star was also extremely weak, weakened by more than ten times compared to its peak.

From what Xia Qingshan knew about Lin Jiang, he was certain that Lin Jiang must have a backup plan on Blue Star, while Jiang Star had Li Canghai’s Soul Fragment, which made Xia Qingshan place his bets on Lingjing Star.

He had to regain control of Lingjing Star and then sacrifice all living beings on Lingjing Star. After many years of recovery, the population had grown back to around four to five billion, and there were many skilled individuals among them.

"Boom"

Demon Queen Lin Fanghua faced her final thunder trial, with thunderstorms nearly drowning her. She had already revealed her true form, a giant Rufu hovering in the skies of Lingjing Star.

Wherever the lightning struck, the flesh of the Demon Queen was tearing apart, and even her bones were visible, causing her great pain as she writhed in agony.

However, the physical damage was not as severe as the Heart Demon; the Demon Queen was now engulfed by the environment.

The first setting is about her brother. Lin Fanghua and Lin Wanli are twin siblings, born from the same egg. After a thousand years, they grew up together, entered the Demon God Temple together, and participated in the selection for the Demon Emperor together.

Lin Wanli not only cared for the Demon Queen but also made great sacrifices for her during the Demon Emperor selection. It was a round where sixteen became eight, and Lin Wanli faced Lin Fanghua, then let her win during the competition.

The reason Lin Wanli chose to lose on purpose was simple: their Rufu bloodline could not compare to the Phoenix clan. Even if Lin Wanli won against Lin Fanghua, he would not win against Feng Jiu. However, if Lin Fanghua won, she would have the chance to defeat other demonesses and become the Demon Queen.

Although it was for selfish reasons, Lin Fanghua was still very grateful for Lin Wanli’s sacrifice. In Lin Fanghua’s life, Lin Wanli held a place just below Old Rufu, but he ultimately died before her.

The scene of Lin Wanli’s death replayed in Lin Fanghua’s mind, causing a surge of anger within her, which made Xia Qingshan outside very happy. If things continued like this, there was no doubt Lin Fanghua would fail her trial.
