Chapter 697 Heartache Resolved, Transformation to Immortality
The killings lasted all night.
As the first rays of morning sunlight struggled to pierce through the thick, bloody fog and fall upon this land.
The Qingyun Sect, once a sacred place for cultivating immortality, surrounded by ethereal mists and cascading waterfalls, has been completely erased from this planet.
Of the thirty-six main peaks that once towered into the clouds, thirty were leveled to the ground; the white jade square was stained dark red with blood, and the piles of corpses emitted a pungent smell of blood.
Within a radius of tens of millions of miles, the life force of any Qingyun Sect disciple could no longer be sensed.
At the very center of the ruins.
Qin Changqing was covered in blood, and his blue robe had long since turned into a glaring crimson.
He leaned on the blood-dripping quasi-emperor's halberd with one hand, standing quietly before the mangled corpse of the Azure Cloud Saint, panting heavily.
His body was exhausted, but his eyes shone as brightly as the stars in the night sky.
He looked up at the dawn breaking through the darkness, a relieved smile appearing on his face.
"Father, Mother, Aunt Wang... Changqing has avenged you. The Qingyun Sect is destroyed."
Qin Changqing closed his eyes, and two lines of clear tears mixed with the blood on his face slid down silently.
This was accompanied by a whisper.
Click!
At the level of the profound laws of the Dao, it seemed as if an incredibly thick black chain had suddenly snapped.
Qin Changqing's Dao heart, which had been stagnant due to hatred, became completely perfect and flawless at this moment.
His obsession was completely shattered by the blood and enemy heads covering the mountain!
The barrier of the Dao-Slaying Realm shattered like paper the moment the knot in one's heart was untied.
"Boom!"
The once cloudless sky suddenly changed color.
Endless black clouds of calamity converged wildly from all directions, completely obscuring the newly risen sun.
Within the calamity clouds, purple lightning roared and surged like a raging dragon, radiating a terrifying divine might capable of destroying heaven and earth.
This is his tribulation of sainthood!
Qin Changqing suddenly opened his eyes, looked up at the sky and roared, his full head of black hair dancing wildly.
He showed no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, he was filled with high fighting spirit.
"Today, I, Qin Changqing, sever all worldly attachments and ascend to the sacred path!"
Instead of using any of the other trump cards left by his master, he relied directly on the incredible regenerative power of the Longevity Holy Body and his powerful physique to soar into the sky and actively meet the boundless sea of lightning.
The lightning bolts struck him relentlessly, like a waterfall.
His flesh was ripped apart and his bones were broken, but the essence of the Eternal Body healed the wounds in the next second.
In the constant alternation of destruction and rebirth, his physical body and soul are undergoing a transformation that is tempered and refined.
It lasted for three days and three nights.
As the last bolt of purple lightning dissipated into the void, the tribulation clouds receded, and sunlight once again bathed the earth.
A young saint, surrounded by flawless holy laws and radiating a terrifying aura that could suppress galaxies, slowly descended from the void.
Qin Changqing has finally become a saint!
He took a deep look at the ruins of the Qingyun Sect below, then turned to face the direction of the Central Region of the Universe, knelt down, and respectfully kowtowed three times.
"Master, my karma is now settled. I will now travel to the Nine Heavens Continent to serve you!"
After saying that, Qin Changqing transformed into a dazzling green rainbow, tearing through the star barrier and heading towards the legendary cultivation holy land—the Nine Heavens Continent.
Time flows on, and the Milky Way turns backward.
In the vast world of cultivation, time is the cheapest, yet also the cruelest thing.
For ordinary people, more than nine hundred years is enough for the ocean to turn into mulberry fields, for countless dynasties to rise and fall, and for the United States to have more than one hundred presidents.
But for the supreme powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of the universe, more than nine hundred years is nothing more than a period of seclusion or a grand dream in a long life.
In the central region of the universe, on the Nine Heavens Continent.
On this supreme land where spiritual energy is so abundant it's almost tangible, floats a magnificent palace that suppresses all the myriad paths of the heavens and exudes boundless imperial might—the Flame Emperor Palace.
On a cliff of enlightenment behind the Yan Emperor Palace.
A man dressed in a green robe with a handsome face was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
The void around him constantly twisted and folded, as if it contained countless miniature worlds.
With each breath he took, the stars in the heavens seemed to resonate with him.
This person was none other than Qin Changqing, who had been cultivating in the Yan Emperor's Palace for over nine hundred years.
More than nine hundred years ago, he came here from the endless starry sky as a newly ascended saint.
Under the meticulous guidance of his master Lin Hanzhou and the endless resources poured into him by the Yan Emperor Palace, Qin Changqing's abnormal talent was finally unleashed.
Great Sage Realm... Quasi-Emperor Realm!
Now, his cultivation level is unfathomable, and he has already reached the peak of Quasi-Emperor, which countless cultivators dream of!
He was just one final leap away. Once the Imperial Pass opened again and the Heavenly Heart Mark was re-formed, he would have absolute confidence in vying for the one and only Mandate of Heaven and successfully becoming an Emperor!
"The Longevity Body is truly blessed by Heaven and Earth to an inconceivable degree."
In a pavilion atop the Enlightenment Cliff, Lin Hanzhou himself was lounging on a bamboo chair, holding a cup of Enlightenment Tea. He gazed intently at Qin Changqing, who was cultivating below, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
In just over nine hundred years, he cultivated from a saint to the peak of a quasi-emperor. Although such a speed was astonishing, it was not unacceptable for the emperor's personal disciple.
What truly amazed Lin Hanzhou was Qin Changqing's current lifespan!
In this universe, the laws of heaven and earth are subject to strict restrictions.
Even those emperors who have merged with the Heavenly Heart Mark and reign supreme, if they cannot find the legendary elixir of immortality to live a second life, their normal lifespan limit is at most 20,000 years.
Those quasi-emperors who did not become emperors had even shorter lifespans, basically only living for nine thousand years.
If they wanted to live until the next opening of the Imperial Pass and compete for the opportunity to become emperors, those older quasi-emperors had no choice but to cut off their own life force, seal themselves in the divine source, and fall into a state of suspended animation until the great era arrived and they would break free from the seal.
However, Qin Changqing didn't need it at all!
The "Longevity Body," one of the Ten Great Sacred Bodies, is not characterized by its combat strength, but by its incredible lifespan!
After reaching the peak of Quasi-Emperor, Qin Changqing's longevity essence was fully perfected.
Lin Hanzhou had once carefully examined his disciple using the laws of the Great Emperor, and he was shocked to discover that his disciple's lifespan at the Quasi-Emperor level was a full 100,000 years!
One hundred thousand years! What does that even mean?
His lifespan is several times longer than that of the legitimate emperor of this era!
If Qin Changqing were to truly attain the Dao and become an emperor, wouldn't his lifespan increase to hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years?
Then what's the point of all the other geniuses in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths? They'd be outlived by him for countless generations.
