To the Demon Feather Race, the Immortal Arts Hall was a sacred place whether it be in the East or West Demon Feather.
As for the Great Immortal Masters of every generation, even though their cultivation levels weren’t all at Ruler realm, their statuses were equivalent to Rulers.
However, as the East Demon Feather declined and the Great Immortal Master of the Immortal Arts Hall in the east died, the Immortal Arts Hall of the East Demon Feather slowly lost its former glory.
All its immortal masters were fighting openly and covertly, wanting to suppress each other and succeed the position of Great Immortal Master.
Although Yue Dong was the disciple of the previous generation’s Great Immortal Master , she wasn’t the only one who was qualified to succeed him.
That was why she had a crazy plan to cooperate with the Lan family to plot against the Great Emperor Nether Flame’s corpse. If she really succeeded… then forget about the Immortal Arts Hall, even the entire East Demon Feather would be controlled by her and the Lan family.
But now… everything had changed.
Fortunately, there was Erniu.
Erniu was kind and willing to help others. Hence, Yue Dong’s plan had a successor.
At that moment, in a city in the Demon Feather Holy Land, closest to the East Demon Feather Immortal Arts Hall, Erniu’s gaze landed on Xu Qing when he heard that Xu Qing didn’t plan to act with him.
“That’s true. The most important thing for you now is to have an ident.i.ty.”
“So you will come find me after you get your ident.i.ty?”
Erniu asked.
Xu Qing shook his head.
He had his own matters to deal with, just like how Eldest Senior Brother wanted to enter the Immortal Arts Hall. What Xu Qing wanted to do was to resolve a problem that had troubled him for a long time.
Xu Qing had thought about this problem many times but he still couldn’t find a solution. It was only when Xue Chenzi appeared that Xu Qing made some connections.
Hence, Xu Qing calmly spoke.
“I’m not sure when I’ll be back.”
“Xue Chenzi has a quality that intrigues me. Eldest Senior Brother, I’m planning to investigate further.”
“I’ll look for you after I’m done looking into it.”
Xu Qing’s words immediately aroused Erniu’s curiosity.
“What quality?”
Xu Qing looked into the distance. He sensed that the mark on Xue Chenzi’s body had mostly dissipated on its own. However, just in case, he had left a shadow eye of Little Shadow.
Hence, he didn’t lose track of Xue Chenzi.
After using his perception, a strange glint appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes as he mumbled.
“Unbound by karma!”
After Xu Qing finished speaking, he took a step forward and blurred, disappearing into the horizon.
Erniu looked in the direction Xu Qing had left in and fell into deep thought.
“Alright. Anyway, with Junior Brother’s current cultivation, he should have no issues if he acts cautiously. Besides… this is the East Demon Feather. Isn’t Lu Lingzi here?”
Erniu licked his lips and turned to look in the direction of the Immortal Arts Hall before speeding off.
Just like that, Qing and Niu separated to do their own things.
Several hours later, in the sky above the East Demon Feather, Xu Qing, in a concealed state, continued to move toward the direction guided by the shadow eye.
As he got closer, waves rose in his heart.
Meeting Xue Chenzi and sensing the unique quality in him was an unexpected event for Xu Qing.
This surprise became a focal point of his inner turmoil.
The biggest issue that had been troubling him during this period was his cultivation.
After dying in the Human Imperial Capital and being resurrected by his master using the fragmented-face’s flesh and blood, Xu Qing had gained immense benefits but also faced many constraints.
The fusion of the soul and body was only one of them.
What made him the most anxious was his cultivation!
To a certain extent, his cultivation had been stuck!
If he wanted to break through to the Nihility realm, he needed the hundred divine authorities in his sea of consciousness to shine fully.
This was extremely difficult.
However, he wanted to become stronger and step into the Soul Acc.u.mulation realm. This was because whether it was the threat from Crown Prince Purple Green or the current war in the w.a.n.ggu Continent, everything required him to become a true powerhouse. Only then could he walk further and calmly.
Staying under his master’s wings wasn’t the path Xu Qing wanted.
However, divine authorities weren’t something he could obtain just by working hard.
Whether it was comprehension or plundering the divine authorities, it was something uncertain.
Xu Qing, whose cultivation had been rising smoothly before, couldn’t accept the word ‘uncertainty’.
“This body allows me to not be shaken at all by those below the Ruler realm. It also provides me with unlimited potential… but it also restricts me.”
“As for the divine authorities… although they increased my combat strength, each acquisition required an opportunity.”
“Success comes from divine authority, but so do the challenges.”
Xu Qing muttered inwardly.
He had thought about how to resolve it previously and also thought of some solutions.
In fact, when he was in the Nanhuang Continent, he had even asked Old Master Seventh.
Old Master Seventh told Xu Qing that this was a new path with unlimited potential. No one could completely guide him. In the end, everything still had to be explored by him.
What he could give him was the Profound Sun Immortal Light that sped up the fusion of the soul and body.
During the few months in the human imperial capital, Xu Qing paid attention to Feng Lintao while thinking of a solution. In the end, he thought of a solution.
That was to create a clone and bypa.s.s the main body to cultivate.
This would allow him to achieve his goal of breaking through.
However, in the end, he still gave up.
This was because after his deduction, he discovered that the possibility of forming a clone to cultivate was almost zero.
The reason for this lay in the significant and numerous karmic ties he had acc.u.mulated.
Whether it was the karma from the outer sea, the karma involving G.o.ds, or the karma with Crown Prince Purple Green… most importantly, it was the karma with Desolate’s fragmented-face..
