Chapter 4: The Three Flowers Gather at the Crown, Ascending to Immortality
He closed his eyes and carefully felt it; in his mind, three lotus flowers radiating auspicious halos were currently floating at the Baihui point. At this moment, these three lotus flowers were continuously releasing celestial energy that washed over his body, and his spirit, guided by the celestial energy, began to roam within himself.
The sound of the法门轰鸣 resonated, a deep voice emerged, akin to the tolling of a bell. Ling Tian felt his entire being sway, his spirit trembling in unison.
This book is truly remarkable; the content it records is vast and profound, elusive and unfathomable. Generally speaking, without a master to guide you, it is nearly impossible to comprehend this book. Strictly speaking, it is not a manual of techniques, but rather a compilation of various extraordinary methods. Its value far exceeds that of the previous two books. What is recorded within are the extraordinary arts created by some exceptionally talented individuals throughout the long river of history, arts that are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Putting down "The Sword Path", Ling Tian opened "The Mysterious Gate" again
It seems that in order to go out, the mystery still lies within the cave
Ling Tian quickly walked out of the cave, and the stone door behind him vanished without a trace
However, the current problem is that the cave is blocked by a stone door; how can we get out? He looked at the stone table beside him, on which lay a chess game.
Pushing open the bronze door, Ling Tian stepped out
Behind Ling Tian stood a heavy stone door, which, due to the passage of time, had almost fused with the surrounding stone walls. Ling Tian gathered all his strength, and the celestial energy within him surged forth like a torrent as he pushed against the stone door. A heavy rumbling echoed throughout the cave, yet the stone door remained utterly unmoved
At last, the gateway in the sea of energy was opened. The energy within Ling Tian surged in, and after passing through this gateway, his vital energy transformed above the dantian into three lotus flowers, akin to a fish leaping over the dragon gate
Putting down "Xing Tian Dao", Ling Tian opened the Sword Dao again
At the moment when the three flowers entered the Baihui point, a heavy stone fell from Ling Tian's heart, and he could no longer hold on. His vision darkened, and he fainted. Thus, the first chapter of the Zulong Jing, the Transformation of Wings chapter, was completed by Ling Tian.
Qingshan City, I, Ling Tian, have returned once again. This time, I will ensure that you pay for your blood debts in blood.
Swish!

Ling Tian aims to achieve the realm of the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top through a two-step process
Directly crossing the two realms of mortals and breaking through to the first realm of immortals, the speed is so swift and terrifying that if outsiders were to know, they would undoubtedly gasp in astonishment
Open "Xing Tian Dao"; there is no superfluous talk, it directly introduces how to practice this technique
After the three elements are perfected, a great door will appear within the body, which is the innate barrier. Then, the essence, energy, and spirit will simultaneously erupt, breaking through the innate barrier in one go, transforming into three lotus flowers
Not enough!
During these three months, Ling Tian has been diligently practicing without a trace of slackness
Individuals who study the spells of the "Xuanmen" generally hold the title of Tianshi. In the present world, Tianshi still exist, but they have become a lineage passed down through generations, with most holding a very high status. Essentially, it is nearly impossible to invite these individuals unless one belongs to an ancient and prestigious family.
The sound of rustling
This is a book about sword training techniques, which consists of two levels. The first level has a multitude of realms, and each realm is named very simply, directly ranging from Sword One to Sword Twenty-Three. The second level is simpler, containing only three realms, namely the Six Directions Extinction Life Sword, the Four Extremes Demon-Slaying Heaven Sword, and the Two Forms Rebirth Sword
Ding ~ ''
Ling Tian called out three times in delight, unable to contain his joy. Now, with all the techniques and weapons at his disposal, and having reached the first realm of immortality, it was time for him to seek revenge
The waves of energy within the meridians became more intense, the blood throughout the body boiling, and three violent energies almost merged into one, like an enraged dragon swiftly traversing the meridians that reached the heavens
As long as the three flowers enter the Baihui point, his current predicament can be resolved immediately
At this moment, Ling Tian's entire body was experiencing a surge in his meridians, with veins bulging on his forehead. Simultaneously, his bones were under immense pressure, emitting cracking sounds as if they were about to shatter at any moment
Give me a break
The first step is to achieve the unity of essence, energy, and spirit. This involves the convergence of the essence and blood within the body with the innate energy, which then flows through the meridians into the spirit and soul. The three elements meet but do not merge; rather, they each form a distinct entity that resonates with one another, creating a synergy that surpasses mere unity. Only upon achieving this can the first step be considered complete
Ling Tian moved slightly, and his whole body creaked as broken bone fragments were lodged in his flesh, causing him to sweat profusely from the pain. Ling Tian steeled himself and began to channel three lotus flowers into the Baihui acupoint in his mind.
Ling Tian did not stop, gritted his teeth, and continued to charge forward
In the past, during his time with the family, Ling Tian would occasionally study some chess manuals in his leisure time. Although his chess skills were not exceptional, they were passable. Now that he has transformed and become an immortal, possessing extraordinary wisdom, he finds the chessboard much simpler upon seeing it again
Ling Tian took a deep breath, then focused all his attention, beginning to exert all his strength to channel his vital energy to impact the portal in his dantian! At this moment, his dantian was a black vortex, and that portal stood majestically in the center of the vortex.
Ling Tian walked up to the stone cabinet and picked up a book, blowing on it with force, causing dust to fly up immediately
Essence, energy, and spirit respectively represent a person's body, innate energy, and soul. The body perceives innate energy, innate energy nourishes the soul, and the soul supports the body. The three are mutually complementary, forming a complete whole, and none can be lacking
This is a book about the art of speed, consisting of two main chapters, namely "Extreme Speed" and "Shuttling," each representing different levels, which are further divided into various realms.
Ling Tian was about to reach his limit, letting out a roar as he unleashed his final surge. The power within his meridians surged once more, and in an instant, his skin began to ooze blood, while his bones started to shatter inch by inch
The "Rapid Chapter" is divided into four major realms: "Soaring in the Void," "A Stone's Throw from Heaven," "The Traveler's Boundless Journey," and "The White Steed Passing Through the Gap."
At this moment, Ling Tian, following the cultivation method of "Transforming Feather Chapter," has reached the critical moment of the first step. A rumbling sound echoed within him, resembling the roar of deep thunder, while his blood surged like a rushing river. His vital energy was as intense as fire, and he sat cross-legged, surrounded by a blaze of light, akin to a blazing sun at noon, which was indeed a manifestation of his vital energy being as fervent as fire
Moments later, through Ling Tian's arduous efforts, the three flowers within him successfully converged at the Baihui acupoint
Time has passed, as the saying goes, cultivation knows no day or month. Moreover, in this dark and silent space, there is no concept of time. Unknowingly, three months have already gone by.
Boom
Having completed the first step, the subsequent second step becomes much simpler. It merely requires a continuous cycle of inhalation and exhalation, fervently absorbing the innate energy, which will then nourish the spirit and soul, allowing the three elements to grow stronger continuously until they reach perfection
clang ~
However, this is still far from enough, because Ling Tian knows that at this moment, Chen Tianhe from the Chen family, the young lord of the Sun family, and the direct descendant from the Zhao family should have already entered the Qi Sect.
At this moment, he is diligently practicing according to the principles of the "Transformation of Feathers". Although his progress is slow, he remains calm and composed, steadily making his way forward
The Shuttling Chapter is divided into three major realms: Teleportation, Void Shuttling, and Cosmic Translocation
Good! Good! Good!
Ling Tian was filled with excitement, knowing that his fortunes had truly turned. First, he obtained the ancestral dragon's legacy, and then he acquired three unparalleled martial arts techniques. If all goes as expected, the sword hanging on the wall should also be an extraordinary treasure. This time, he was truly fortunate
He picked up the robe from the ground and put it on; it fit him perfectly, as if it had been tailored specifically for him. With the addition of a conical hat, he resembled a mysterious hero, just the right disguise for concealing his identity
The Way of Walking in Heaven
Ling Tian understood that this cultivation method was profound and mysterious; if one could not calm their mind, they would not even be able to comprehend it. He had to be in an absolutely tranquil state to begin his practice; otherwise, there would be no progress
The long sword was drawn, its cold gleam imposing, the dazzling sword light piercing so fiercely that Ling Tian could not open his eyes
What comes into view is a modest cave dwelling, inside which are a few pieces of simple furniture. In front of Ling Tian, there is a stone bed, already covered in dust, and a strong sense of the passage of time wafts over, indicating that this place has been abandoned for a long time
On the left side of the stone floor, there is a stone table and several stone stools, with a chessboard set up on the table. On the right side, there is a stone cabinet, on which a few books are scattered, covered in a thick layer of dust, making it difficult for Ling Tian to see the covers of the books clearly
In the silent dark space, Ling Tian sits quietly in meditation
He stood up energetically, his expression very excited
It turned out to be a manual of martial arts, which surprised Ling Tian. He quickly picked up the remaining books to examine them, which were titled "Swordsmanship" and "Mystical Path"
Finally here
Ling Tian carefully put away the three books, and then walked to the side to take down the long sword hanging on the wall
In the darkness, Ling Tian radiated an ethereal light, with three lotus flowers emanating celestial energy, protecting his body
Within Ling Tian's meridians, three streams of powerful energy surged like a mighty river, with violent waves of qi crashing against his meridians, causing his entire body to crackle, even his bones resonating. The surging waves of qi rushed towards the dantian, resembling a cascade of stars, directly colliding with the gate of the qi sea.
He found that his meridians had been expanded by more than double. When he practiced his breathing techniques, Ling Tian discovered that at this moment, the speed at which he absorbed innate energy was several times faster than before. Given his already exceptional talent, this was akin to adding wings to a tiger, which greatly surprised him. Moreover, nourished by the celestial energy, his meridians were now filled with resilience. At the same time, the previously shattered bones had been completely repaired, and all the fragments lodged within the flesh had vanished. He now felt an abundance of strength coursing through his body, and with a slight invocation of celestial energy, Ling Tian could even faintly hear a rumbling sound in his ears, the sound of celestial energy surging through his meridians.
Call ... ...
In Ling Tian's eyes, a cold light flashed, and then he leaped into the air, flying towards Qing Shan City
Uncertain of how much time had passed, Ling Tian awoke from his slumber
He must eliminate these three families and inevitably create enmity with the Qi Sect, so he needs to devise a foolproof plan.
These arcane arts are unpredictable, as only a very small number of special individuals can learn them, and they possess terrifying methods. Consequently, they are not accepted by the secular world, and ultimately, many have vanished without a trace
Is this the power of the immortal? Remarkable, truly remarkable! Ling Tian clenched his fist, feeling a surge of strength throughout his body, which gave him a sense of solidity
These seven realms exhibit an increasingly rapid pace, culminating in the ability to traverse space directly. The highest realm, known as the Transformation of Heaven and Earth, can even achieve this in the blink of an eye, allowing one to reach any location in the universe, which is truly terrifying
He stared at the chessboard, pondering seriously for a moment, and then understood the crux of the problem. He deftly moved his fingers, maneuvering across the chessboard with skill. After a flurry of adjustments, a low voice suddenly sounded from behind him, and the stone door opened of its own accord, revealing the world beyond, which was the main road to the south of Qingshan City.
The realm of carefree existence! The current realm of Ling Tian.
It was not until this moment that he realized how terrifying the power of the immortal truly was. He estimated that with his current strength, he could easily level the entire Qing Shan City
This situation persisted until the seventh day. On that night, Ling Tian suppressed all the anomalies emanating from his body. Within him, there was a deep rumbling sound. Ling Tian turned his gaze inward and saw an ancient portal slowly emerging from the depths of his Qi sea within his dantian.
A long sword is hung on the wall inside, and a neatly folded set of robes is placed on the floor below, with a conical hat resting on top of the robes
