Seeking the Way of Immortality

"Hey, Wu Zheng, your wine is not right!"

"It is a little wrong. You have been away from the North Sea Forest for only more than ten years. You are not even a hundred years old now. How can this wine have such a strong sense of age?"

Wu Zheng smiled but said nothing. They did not know that Wu Zheng used the three powers of time, space and strength to temper his own strength in the small world. The Honghuang Blood Marrow Brew and Wanxuan Bitter Brew accompanied Wu Zheng in the Purple Extreme Golden Armor to endure the tempering of time. Although the time was not long, it was about a hundred years. In addition, Wu Zheng's training in the Phoenix Realm was more than a hundred years.

"The power of time, yes or no?" Kong Xuan said in shock.

"Not only the power of time, but also some traces of the rules of force." Wu Tian added.

Everyone was surprised. They did not expect Wu Zheng to have cultivated the power of time and the rules of force. This good fortune alone was enough to make countless practitioners envious.

Xuan Jun smiled but said nothing, and Wu Zheng did not say much: "Uncle Xuan Jun, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, seniors, this is the spiritual wine that I have collected, please taste it."

"How can I eat wine without meat?" Kong Xuan held a jar of wine, shook his hand to unlock the restrictions on it, and drank it in big gulps.

The rich aroma of wine and spiritual energy spread in all directions along the mouth of the jar, and the fragrance instantly filled the entire Tianhuo Stone Pit Cave.

"It has been prepared long ago." Wu Zheng took out some braised beef from the Hun Tian Ding. They were all secretly made by the young monks in the Bi Ling Hall over the years. Although they were not spiritual meat, they had a smell of fireworks.

This smell of fireworks made Xuan Jun and other strong men nod their heads, and they were happier than taking some magic medicine.

Everyone drank and ate braised beef at the same time, without rushing or slowing, and did not ask Wu Zheng about his plan again.

Wu Zheng took a deep breath and finally said, "I want to take advantage of Senior Kong Xuan's celebration to settle some grievances, and then find a way to return to Xuanhuang Realm."

"With Senior Xuan Jun in charge, it is not difficult to settle grievances, but it may not be easy for you to return to Xuanhuang Realm!" Kong Xuan said.

"It is not easy to go back. The reason why I left Xuanhuang Realm is because Xuanhuang Realm is being invaded by the demons. I was also severely injured by the demons. I broke through the void under the extremely strong power and drifted in the turbulent flow of the void for several years before finally coming to Phoenix Realm."

"You have been away from Xuanhuang Realm for 20 to 30 years. Isn't it a sheep walking into the tiger's mouth to go back now?"

"No, although Xuanhuang Realm is not as good as Phoenix Realm, Xuanhuang Realm should not be underestimated. There are countless powerful gods and hundreds of races. Before I left, the demon world only invaded one state of Xuanhuang Realm. In just over 30 years, although the demons are strong, it is impossible for them to completely occupy Xuanhuang Realm." Wu Zheng said.

"No wonder you recruited Li Wujiang and the others, it turns out you had a plan!"

"Yes, I always think about going back. After all, that's where I was born and raised, and there are my relatives and friends there!"

"Okay, no matter what you do, we brothers support you, but we brothers don't have the courage of the eldest brother, and we can't easily leave the Phoenix Realm, so we can only send some of the younger generations of the Wu family to accompany you to Xuanhuang." Wu Di said without hesitation.

"Thank you, Third Uncle."

"Wu Zheng, since you want to leave the Phoenix Realm, have you ever thought about how to leave?"

Wu Zheng nodded: "Of course I have thought about it, so I want to use the celebration of Senior Kong Xuan to find the whereabouts of the star map and space nodes."

"It seems that you have made a lot of preparations over the years, but the power of the space turbulence is uncertain, sometimes it is terrible, and sometimes it is not dangerous. It is difficult for us to control this. You can enter the Phoenix Realm along the void turbulence, but you may not be able to return to the Xuanhuang Realm from the void turbulence. Do you understand this?" Wu Tian said solemnly.

"I understand, but there is no better way besides this."

"Fellow Daoist Xuanjun, you still have to say something now." Wu Tian glanced at Xuanjun and said with a wry smile.

If Wu Zheng could stay in the Phoenix Realm, that would naturally be the best choice. If Wu Zheng insisted on returning to the Xuanhuang Realm, they would naturally help him. However, if Wu Zheng wanted to return to the Xuanhuang Realm from the Void Turbulence, the risk was too great and they would not agree.

"Stop thinking about the Void Turbulence as soon as possible. Although you have the strength to fight in the Void Refining Realm now, and you have the triple power of time, space, and the rules of force, you can cross the Void Turbulence without any harm, but what about those who follow you? Can you guarantee that you can cross the Void Turbulence intact?" Xuanjun waved his hand and bluntly denied Wu Zheng's idea.

"Uncle, I really have to go back. There are still many things I need to solve there." Wu Zheng insisted.

Xuanjun exhaled a breath of turbid air: "Well, since you want to go back, then go back!"

Xuanjun's words were naturally very important. Everyone looked at Xuanjun, waiting for his next words: "The underworld connects the Zhoutian Wanjie. You have reshaped your body. You seem to be alive, but you are actually dead."

"Senior, what do you mean by that?" Kong Xuan asked. Wu Zheng standing in front of him was obviously a flesh and blood body, but how could he become a dead person in Xuanjun's mouth? This made him very confused.

Not only Kong Xuan was puzzled, Wu Tian and Wu Di were also confused.

"Sir, there has always been a legend of the underworld in the Phoenix Realm. It is rumored that the underworld is not an independent interface of the Phoenix Realm? How can it connect to the Zhoutian Wanjie?" Bai Qi couldn't help but interrupt and ask.

"This statement is reasonable. In fact, there are legends about the underworld in each realm, and the underworld itself is a relatively high-level realm, far superior to the Phoenix Realm and the Xuanhuang Realm. All the realms of the Zhoutian Wanjie are connected to the underworld, but the underworld has always been only accessible to the dead, so there is little information about the true situation of the underworld in the outside world."

"Sir, what you mean is that Wu Zheng has reshaped his body, and in a sense, he is a dead person, and can enter the underworld, and then pass through the underworld and enter the Xuanhuang Realm?"

"Yes."

"Then how can we help Wu Zheng?"

"The Taoists have a secret technique called 'walking in the underworld', which means that you can enter the underworld with your soul. The cultivation world also has various magic techniques that can put the body into a state of suspended animation, so that the soul can leave the body and enter the underworld. However, your cultivation has reached a certain level. As long as the heavenly way of the Phoenix Realm does not interfere, it is not impossible to enter the underworld for training." Xuan Jun smiled and explained.

"I have heard of the Taoist practice of walking in the underworld. Rumor has it that Taoism has deep roots in the underworld, and even the Lord of the Underworld does not dare to underestimate it." Kong Xuan nodded and spoke in agreement.
