Through observing the flow of fire element qi in the Sun Star World, Deng Chanyu spent two days searching for seven fire element qi nodes, relying on her profound "Earth and Wood Studies" knowledge and experience gained from repairing the primitive land vein, until she found Yung Yuan's hidden palace at the eighth fire element qi node.
Different from the Taiyi Palace.
Taiyi Palace is an independent palace, with complete cultivation facilities inside and high-level defense formations outside. When Deng Chanyu found Taiyi Palace, most of the formations were nearly destroyed, but there were still some at first.
The main feature of Yung Yuan's hidden palace is the "hidden" character. If Deng Chanyu hadn't transformed into the shape of Jinyu and wandered around an illusory array for half a day, she would not have been able to pass the identity recognition at the first gate.
After that, things became simpler. Yung Yuan's mastery of formations was still unparalleled. This time, she didn't have an "entry manual" for the formation in her hands, but the grand formation hadn't been destroyed by the stupid nine-headed worm like before. When Lu Ya took away items from within the hidden palace and left, it seemed that he had only performed a simple cover-up, and many defensive functions were not activated.
Deng Chanyu connected with Empress Ta Ji, and they spent three days breaking through the illusionary array.
The two entered a dim passage that sloped downward, and finally saw the vast underground palace.
"Wow, it's so cool!" A cool breeze hit them, and Ta Ji closed her eyes, her face showing complete enjoyment.
She also unbuttoned her collar, hoping to let more cool air in, to cool herself down even more.
Deng Chanyu also felt very comfortable.
She is not afraid of heat, but she also doesn't want to seek trouble.
Actually, the temperature around here hasn't cooled down much. It's mainly because the lower fire element node absorbs heat and spreads it to the other main veins, making this coolness mainly a matter of comparison.
The hidden palace can also be called the underground palace. Most of the decorations in this palace have been moved away by Lu Ya, except for some literally named bottles and jars, Deng Chanyu didn't see anything valuable.
Ta Ji stroked the bas-reliefs on the wall, examining them closely, "It seems this is it."
Deng Chanyu also looked in the direction she was pointing.
The bas-relief depicts the past of two young people traveling the Hutuang together. They have also experienced many hardships. There are seven records of their near-death experiences in the bas-relief, one of which Deng Chanyu is familiar with. It's Leizi, right? The only person who could have put both Yung Yuan and Taiyi in danger at that time was probably the thunder god back then.
She asked, "Is the divine aura here sufficient for your cultivation?"
Ta Ji nodded decisively, "Enough."
Whether it's power or temperament, or the essence, spirit and qi that Xuan Men values most, she has already reached a perfect state. As long as she cultivates Tian Shen Dao, she can break through the bottleneck between True Immortality and Xuan Immortality. When it comes to proving the fruit of Golden Immortal Dao, she will cultivate the remaining Modra Dao. And also has to integrate all six realms, this six realms integration difficulty is not comparable with three Qie united. But at this stage, it is also a great test of talent and comprehension.
The six realms of Lady Pingxin can be freely chosen, she can cultivate the Modra Dao when breaking through from Immortal to Earth Immortal. To Lady Pingxin, whether it's Immortal or Golden Immortal, there is really no difference. You can choose to go from hard to easy or from easy to hard, it's all up to you.
Ta Ji places the relatively easiest Xiao Rou Dao at the end, and is currently practicing the most difficult and demanding Tian Shen Dao.
The difficulty here is not in the original text, but in the environment.
The stronger the divine aura, the better. The realm of the dead also has divine aura, but even after absorbing it for ten thousand years, most people would find it hard to successfully break through.
For those from the Waste Land, ten thousand years of time are not a big deal. They can slowly cultivate. What's the rush?
Ta Ji has always been smart, she deduces from Deng Chanyu's daily behavior that the heaven and earth qi in the Hutuang world will not remain at this level, and cultivation will become increasingly difficult in the future.
The concentration of the qi in a thousand years will already differ from what it is now, let alone in ten thousand years.
Now we have to seize the time, the faster the better.
The best divine aura naturally comes from the Heavenly Emperor.
Go find the Taiyi, then say "Give me a favor, lend us your Lingxiabao Hall for a while?"
They don't seem to have this face. The emperor of the current dynasty dare not offend, and can only rely on the emperor of the previous dynasty for help. Fortunately, they found a way.
Ta Ji took off her damp palace attire, let her hair down, and then somewhat reluctantly changed into thick and heavy tan robes, white silk sashes, plain silk middles, and the black and heavy Xiongdu Emperor's divine robe.
The last divine robe was forced onto Deng Chanyu like a bag, by her.
Ta Ji looked very bitter: "A Yu, this is too hot."
There might have been a factor of cuteness before, but now she really couldn't stand it anymore; the light in her eyes was a bit dim. Deng Chanyu waved twice in front of her eyes.
"A Yu, am I blind?"
"That's just from the heat."
"When I become the Xiongdu Emperor, can we simplify the attire?"
Deng Chanyu nodded seriously: "Of course, that's good. In the future, your successors will not have to suffer like you do now, it's a great merit, good fortune."
Ta Ji immediately became more alert: "That means I can't simplify it! When the time comes, I'll recommend a hotter place for my successor to cultivate in! Oh hahaha hahaha!"
Deng Chanyu smirked, covering the collar of the divine robe tightly: "Be careful, don't let any wind through or tilt your head. I'll put on the crown for you."
Later, she grabbed Ta Ji's foot and put on the Chi Xia (red wooden sole shoe).
At this point, all the attire of the Xiongdu Emperor was put on.
To cultivate the Tian Shen Dao, you at least need to be an immortal. Being a minor official in the realm of the dead and a Heavenly Emperor both count as immortals. But if you are already an emperor, then it's from emperor to emperor; the cultivation speed would definitely be faster.
Ta Ji's Yao Wang doesn't count, she's an outsider. The Xiongdu Emperor is very suitable.
At this time, she strengthened her spirit and used her own power to communicate with the Yung Yuan qi inside the bas-relief.
"It's so hot!" Ta Ji casually placed the crown aside and lay limply beside the desk, like sludge.
Two paper people with "Yu" characters on their foreheads holding fans stood by, fanning her.
Deng Chanyu had some understanding of her progress, and now she asked: "Can you enter?"
Ta Ji shook her head weakly, "Enter? Not yet, but I've completed the first step. From now on, I won't have to wear these annoying clothes anymore. It's just a matter of following the steps sequentially."
With Deng Chanyu's help, she removed her regalia and changed back into her own jade-colored silk brocade palace attire.
After a rather strange look from Deng Chanyu, she counted her fingers and calculated: "I'll need half a year to breakthrough. Let's take a look at the landfire you mentioned."
With Ta Ji watching by her side, Deng Chanyu can focus on refinishing the Broken Immortal Sword. There is no need to worry about interference from the Heart Demon, which might appear again.
