Chapter 85 - 85: The Descent of the Golden Ranking (1)
After dealing with the White Dragon King, Li Qingshan lived in seclusion on the Repentance Cliff.
The outside world was changing rapidly. The first batch of Nirvana experts who had returned from the Dimensional Battlefield had also found their respective positions.
Some found deserted lands to live in seclusion, some returned to their former homelands to cultivate, and some occupied their former sects and became their ancestors…
The powers of the Human World were completely reshuffled.
The best preserved one was Yuhua Sect.
Because of the addition of the Taoist priest, the monk, and the elderly, Little
Nine also announced that she would reduce Yuhua Sect’s area and defend
Yuhua Sect’s territory. It would not expand to the outside world so that it would
also not be easy for others to find trouble with Yuhua Sect. Thus, after the first round of reshuffling, Yuhua Sect was saved.
Li Qingshan had heard about those from Little Nine.
Now that he had broken through to the Human World Immortal Plane, he only needed to go to Yuhua Sect once a month to talk to Hua Yun and see if the formation was loose.
Besides that, he lived in seclusion on the Repentance Cliff, meditating in the Stele Forest and practicing katas to comprehend Paths.
Li Qingshan hadn’t even comprehended half of the Million Stele Forest. How could he bear to leave the Repentance Cliff to look at the Human World?
He would bring Little Fox, Five Ghosts, and A’wei to practice katas together every morning.
Then, he would wipe the steles and comprehend their skills.
In the afternoon, Li Qingshan returned to cultivate in silence, sipping tea and comprehending Paths.
At night, he carefully comprehended the mysteries of the Human World Immortal Plane.
Time passed slowly like water.
Three months had passed since he returned from the Great Thunderclap Temple.
Li Qingshan continued to shuttle through the Million Stele Forest, wiping and comprehending silently.
[Your serious wiping activated Maxed-Level Comprehension, and you’ve comprehended the Universe in the Palm!]
On that day, after Li Qingshan finished his katas practice early in the morning, he went over to wipe the stele and seriously comprehend it.
A line of words appeared before his eyes, and a skill appeared in his mind.
“Universe in the Palm. This is a Universe Skill that belongs to the Path of Space. When combined, it creates a space in the palm. It’s a secret skill.” Li Qingshan instantly understood.
The next moment, he slowly moved his palm and traced the Universe in the Palm. In a short while, a hazy small world appeared in his palm.
There was no life in that world. It was just a spatial pocket that was created out of thin air and could only accommodate dead things.
“This skill is similar to the Buddhist’s Buddha Kingdom in the Palm. The difference is that the Buddha Kingdom in the Palm is a powerful skill that stretches the Space Skill to the extreme. This Universe in the Palm is just a beginner.” Li Qingshan was considered knowledgeable and had some understanding of the Path of Space, so it was very easy for him to cultivate that secret skill.
After successfully cultivating the Universe in the Palm in a short period of time, Li Qingshan continued to wipe the other steles.
He walked to the next stele and realized the Yuhua Sect Badge was carved on it.
That stunned Li Qingshan.
From the first day he came to the Repentance Cliff till then, he had seen many steles with all kinds of patterns, but he had never seen one with the Yuhua Sect
Badge.
“Could this be the ancestor of Yuhua Sect?” Li Qingshan guessed silently.
He cleaned up the vines, dust, and moss on the stele.
Then, through the ancient stele, Li Qingshan confirmed that it belonged to the ancestor of Yuhua Sect.
Because there were a few words engraved on the stele.
Ascension Immortal!
Li Qingshan had once flipped through the Library in Yuhua Sect, where he had seen the introduction of the ancestor of Yuhua Sect.
Yuhua Sect had always said that their heritage had never been cut off. From ancient times to the present, they were one of the most ancient cultures in the Human World.
However, in detail, how many years had the Yuhua Sect been passed down? There was no accurate answer.
Everyone only knew that the founding ancestor of Yuhua Sect was an Ascension Immortal, and the word ‘Yuhua’ of Yuhua Sect was taken from that Ascension Immortal.
He had also designed the Yuhua Sect Badge of Yuhua Sect back then, and it had been used until then. To date, that badge would be engraved on the disciples’ clothes.
Therefore, that stele that was engraved with a badge and the words ‘Ascension Immortal’ on it led Li Qingshan to be sure that that was the ancestor of Yuhua Sect.
“What’s going on? Its ancestor is hidden in the Million Stele Forest, and Yuhua Sect doesn’t even know about it?” Li Qingshan found it very interesting.
He had long suspected the relationship between the Million Stele Forest and Yuhua Sect.
Yuhua Sect explained to the outside world that the Stele Forest was filled with enemies and disciples, who had made mistakes, that they had once punished.
However, since the establishment of Yuhua Sect, including the longest legend, it had only been 10,000 years.
In 10,000 years, the steles had accumulated to become the Million Stele Forest.
They would have to at least, in a year, deal with hundreds of enemies or disciples who had made mistakes to accumulate such a huge Stele Forest.
Obviously, that didn’t make sense.
Later, Li Qingshan slowly comprehended the skills in the Stele Forest and realized that only a small part of that Stele Forest was built by Yuhua Sect.
Now that he had seen the ancestor of Yuhua Sect, Li Qingshan was even more certain.
After cleaning the stele, Li Qingshan sat down cross-legged and looked at it silently, immersing in it.
He wanted to see what kind of skill the ancestor of Yuhua Sect had left behind.
[Your serious wiping activated Maxed-Level Comprehension, and you’ve comprehended the Ascension Technique!]
Li Qingshan’s mind was filled with a grand heavenly voice, reciting a mysterious scripture.
That scripture was the Ascension Technique.
Li Qingshan listened quietly and suddenly felt his mouth go dry.
The Ascension Technique was an Immortal Skill.
It was a powerful Immortal Skill that surpassed the Human World Skills.
Once his cultivation was successful, he could continuously inject the Ascension Immortal Energy into the enemy’s body when he fought. When the Ascension
Immortal Energy was sufficient, the enemy would instantly transform into a
Path on the spot..
