Chapter 302: Chapter 266: Xinning Proves the Saint Path_1

Quickly, three months passed.

It was only three months, but the Immortal Domain seemed to have entered a golden age.

The seeds of the Holy Dao Powers that once fled to the Secret Place bloomed and bore fruit on the land of the Immortal Domain.

The Holy Dao Powers that fled to the Secret Place in former years, aside from those terrifying Imperial and Royal Clans, included countless ordinary forces and inheritances, which, by relying on the Holy Dao Powers, left behind a seed.

Now returning, those ordinary forces and inheritances also blossomed and bore fruit, rekindling vitality.

The Holy Dao Powers became more and more numerous, spreading throughout the entire Immortal Domain, and the number of Holy Dao powerhouses grew.

In fact, in the era when the Immortal Path was lacking, becoming an Immortal by certification and an Immortal King required much greater difficulty, but after the Heavenly Dao was completed, the path of cultivation was opened.

Advancements in realms were no longer as difficult as in the Era of Immortal Dao. Cultivators at the Immortal and Hongmeng Realms were as numerous as carps crossing the river, and even the Holy Dao seemed not so out of reach.

This was the fortune brought about by the reappearance of the Holy Dao and the completion of the Great Dao between heaven and earth, benefiting all beings.

It could be said that the Immortal Domain today, while countless old Immortal Dao powerhouses have perished, has gained an overall increase in strength in return!

…

In the Northern Region, within the Great Wilderness.

In a small mountain village, within a small courtyard.

“The weather has been strange lately,”

Li Fan felt puzzled, as in the recent months, there were thunderstorms without rain!

And disciples like Dugu Yuqing, upon hearing Li Fan’s words, all felt a mix of complex emotions!

The outside world had completely changed during this period.

That wasn’t thunder at all; it was clearly countless people in the outside world undergoing their tribulations of lightning.

But in the eyes of their master, it was merely that the weather was a bit strange…

At first, the disciples were puzzled, thinking that their current realms should be enough to attract thunder tribulations, but for so long, none had occurred…

Later, they came to terms with it, perhaps this was the terrifying aspect of their master, that even heavenly thunder dared not touch him?

Recently, male disciples like Dugu Yuqing have become somewhat tanned.

The spring thunder heralded a good time for farming, and although it had not rained, Li Fan still led his disciples to finish planting all the fields in the village.

Moreover, Li Fan also had Wu Dade, who had nothing better to do, use his skills in pig and dog breeding to help the villagers breed their poultry and livestock.

“Master, I’m back,”

Wu Dade finally returned with some sweat on his face.

“Tired?”

Li Fan smiled and handed Wu Dade a cup of tea.

Gratefully accepting the tea, Wu Dade gulped it down, his eyes nearly welling up as he said,

“Master, can I not go next time?”

Seeing this, Li Fan couldn’t help but comfort him,

“Uncle Zhang’s two pigs are quite spirited, breeding them takes a bit of effort, but it’s good for you…”

Wu Dade replied with a hint of grievance,

“It’s beneficial, indeed, it just wears out the pants a bit…”

In the breeding process, he had been bitten by those pigs!

There was no other way; the most resilient part of his body was his behind.

Isn’t it true that his pants get torn every time…

Li Fan chuckled and said,

“That’s nothing; I have planted many mulberry and sesame plants in the east of the village. Later you can cut some and give them to Auntie Li in the village to make you a few more pairs. Wouldn’t that solve the problem?”

“Right, junior brother, it’s just breeding sows, what are you afraid of?”

Lu Rang teased with a mischievous grin on the side!

Upon hearing this, Wu Dade shivered and sent a message to Lu Rang,

“Brother Lu, do you know what kind of pigs those two are? They’re Primordial Heavenly Pigs, extremely ferocious… If I hadn’t made a breakthrough, I wouldn’t have been able to stand their bites at all!”

He was still shaken by the experience!

Ever since returning from the White Tiger Immortal Nation, Wu Dade had been rubbing Hei Gou’s dog bowl all over his body daily.

It contained the power of two great Immortal Kings.

Using the power of the two Immortal Kings to constantly attack his body, he soon broke through to the Immortal Realm.

Additionally, for the past few months, he did an excellent job in breeding activities. He had been bitten many times by those formidable Primordial beasts, yielding enormous benefits.

After being bitten numerous times, Wu Dade actually advanced directly to the Hongmeng Realm!

Not just Wu Dade; after several months of laboring under Li Fan’s guidance, most of them had almost reached the Hongmeng Realm!

At the same time, they were also making continuous progress.

Nan Feng had begun to explore the next chapter of the Emperor’s Breakthrough Melody.

“The Emperor’s Breakthrough Melody, both the Immortal and Hongmeng, are just a small starting point…”

She muttered to herself, feeling as if she were uncovering a piece of ancient history the more she played.

It was as if she saw an invincible figure, defeating all enemies of the heavens with his music.

Now, she had started to explore the Saint Path chapter!

Zi Ling’s paintings became increasingly spirited. Under Li Fan’s guidance, she had recently started to learn to “leave blank spaces” in her art.

“To simply capture the essence of everything in heaven and earth is just the basics. To become a master of painting, you need to not only learn to fill a blank canvas with things but also learn to restrain yourself and leave blank spaces,”

“Only through blank space can the most mysterious and attractive qualities emerge.”

Li Fan taught her this way, causing Zi Ling to ponder for a long time.

She felt as if her master was hinting at something… perhaps extending the domains within her paintings!

Her aura is getting closer and closer to the Saintly Dao Realm.

As for Dugu Yuqing, he began to practice more characters.

Having mastered the Eternal Eight Techniques, he discovered even more mysteries.

In between every character, there lay a sword technique!

He became engrossed in it, comprehending his own path of slaughter—the path of slaughter at the Saint level.

On the other hand, a single spider was no longer sufficient for Qing Chen’s cleaning speed.

Li Fan, holding the belief that he shouldn’t be left idle, took out two more from the system.

Three completely different spiders, when appearing together, even made Hei Gou go out of his way to avoid them.

Qing Chen was exhausted every day, but his eyes were becoming more resolute.

The three spiders made his progress incredibly fast!

Lu Rang was obsessed with planting grass and nurturing trees—he found that some of the soil around the peach tree’s roots seemed to have remarkable effects on his grass, and a few days ago, he daringly gathered a small handful when the peach tree swayed in the wind, appearing to be “in a good mood,” and placed it at the base of his grass.

This caused the grass to shoot up to the Hongmeng Realm and nearly step into the Saintly Dao Realm!

Lu Rang got so excited that he coveted the soil around the peach tree roots every day. Partly out of fear and partly not wanting to rush things recklessly, he held himself back.

He was also diligent in watering the saplings in the corner of the courtyard, which had now grown over one meter tall, with verdant and vibrant leaves.

Long Zixuan sat fishing; a few days ago, a goldfish leaped for the bait and finally bit, but it was very fast and did not get hooked.

Witnessing the carp’s leap, Long Zixuan fell into contemplation for three days and three nights!

His aura kept improving, with dragon energy resonating with the surrounding Dao principles.

He was almost stepping into the Saintly Dao Realm.

Jiang Li learned to play chess against himself.

“To play chess against oneself, to defeat oneself, is to defeat all enemies,”

Li Fan’s teaching made him immerse himself in it daily.

But the corner where he placed his chessboard has recently been a no-go zone for anyone else.

Just a few days ago, while he was contemplating chess positions, Wu Dade accidentally wandered in and was nearly slashed to pieces by various auras.

Lin Jiu Zheng delved into talisman research, becoming more and more obsessed, and meanwhile, he incessantly pestered Li Fan into making him a Feather Brush.

He named his Feather Brush “Fire God Brush,” and every talisman he drew with it increased in divine might.

“Spring has arrived, Xinning, I’ll teach you a new poem.”

Li Fan smiled and immediately began to write.

Immediately, Zi Ling, Dugu Yuqing, and all the other Disciples neatly arranged their stools to come and learn together.

They all had come to understand that the poems Li Fan taught contained various great principles of Dao that they could use for reference and comprehension.

Xinning was especially delighted.

A few days earlier, she had activated the Immortal Dao Fruit and Demonic Dao Fruit within her body, advancing them into the Hongmeng Realm. Now, she was at a certain bottleneck!

Li Fan’s brush finally came to a stop.

This time, what the others felt was no longer that dominant aura of invincibility or unparalleled strength through the ages.

Instead, it was a refreshing naturalness, as if a gentle breeze caressed the face, bringing joy to the heart.

This was a gentle way of the Dao!

Li Fan said with a smile:

“The jade is dressed up as a tall tree, with thousands of green silk ribbons hanging down. No one knows who cut the fine leaves, the February spring wind is like scissors.”

“No one knows who cut the fine leaves, the February spring wind is like scissors…”

Xinning followed in recitation, but her large eyes immediately shimmered with contemplative light, murmuring:

“Is Big Brother describing a Dao of creation? The spring wind, the embodiment of creation, can bring vitality…”

She felt as if she had vaguely touched upon a type of Dao!

This way of the Dao seemed to allow her to fuse the Demon Monarch Dao Fruit of her past life with the Immortal Monarch Dao Fruit of this life!

The spring wind, which can give life to all things!

Before creation, is there a distinction between immortals and demons?

No…

They are all but products of creation.

Her large eyes suddenly closed.

At this moment, she felt as if she was in the midst of the spring breeze.

She felt herself become a sprout, a tender leaf, growing robustly in the spring wind.

Growth became the only melody, without any distinction between immortals and demons.

Inside her body, the Immortal and Demon Dao Fruits suddenly merged at that moment.

Their fusion no longer repelled each other!

They became one!

It was at that moment, as the Immortal and Demon Dao Fruits fused, that the peach tree in the small courtyard suddenly stirred its branches slightly!

An invisible charm entered Xinning’s body!

She assimilated it!

Xinning suddenly opened her eyes.

Her large eyes seemed to be brimming with endless vitality!

All around the small courtyard, the great Dao principles descended to cleanse and resonate with her!

This was…

Stepping into the Saintly Dao!
