I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Chapter 235 - 223: The Illusion Array Refines the Heart

kunlun cave heaven.

the faint light shimmered, and the fortune-telling daoist landed on the ground.

looking up, he saw the heaven-reaching divine wood, as well as the little daoist boy nodding off beneath the tree, affirming the tales from the mundane world.

"this is the heaven-reaching divine wood? legend has it that by climbing it, one could enter the world of immortals and gods!"

just as the daoist was about to step forward and speak, another dozen or so rays of light flickered, and the straw raincoat guest and others entered the cave heaven one after another.

"alliance hierarch, you’ve also come in?"

"the immortals did not forbid it."

the straw raincoat guest surveyed the kunlun wonderland, the dense white fog swirling all around. as he inhaled, he felt the mysterious aura enter his meridians and viscera, slightly bolstering his qi-blood.

"indeed, an immortal realm, where even breathing makes one stronger!"

the spirit ginseng child heard the murmurs, slowly opened his eyes, yawned, and spoke.

"you’ve come at an inopportune time. the immortal elder is in secluded cultivation. you can practice nearby, go to the scripture pavilion to study the scriptures, and if there are any matters, come and ask poor dao."

the straw raincoat guest bowed and asked, "esteemed immortal elder, how may you be addressed?"

"i am spirit ginseng, not worthy of the title ’immortal elder.’"

hearing the words ’immortal elder,’ spirit ginseng’s eyes visibly brightened with joy. "you, with your bushy eyebrows and big eyes, look quite fortunate. you could achieve great things in the future!"

"thank you for your praise, immortal elder. the younger one is ye yun."

having risen from a fisherman to his current position, ye yun had long since learned to observe words and expressions. he said respectfully, "may i ask how long the immortal elder’s secluded cultivation will take?"

"you most likely will not be able to wait."

spirit ginseng explained, "the immortal elder’s secluded cultivation lasts at least several decades or hundreds of years, and at most several hundred or even a thousand years."

the group showed disappointment upon hearing this, but then quickly realized that being able to enter kunlun was already a great opportunity.

with such a destiny, the red alliance is bound to achieve great things!

ye yun fell silent for a long while before bowing and saying, "i request that the immortal elder perform the heart-refining spell!"

"spirit-refining techniques are not like the ordinary ones. they delve straight into the depths of the soul, and their effects are influenced by the strength of the spirit. it’s a hundred times more difficult for ordinary people than for cultivators."

spirit ginseng spoke solemnly, "back then, many talented loose cultivators with unyielding determination failed on the path of heart refinement. if you cannot pass it, though there won’t be substantial harm, you also..."

"originally, i came from a family of fishermen, all i wanted was to seek justice for the common folk."

ye yun spoke firmly, "now that i have obtained the immortal scriptures of kunlun, all i wish for is universal peace in this world. the difficulty is as daunting as turning the sky and earth upside down. if i cannot get through the heart refinement, i am willing to step down as the alliance hierarch!"

"leader!"

"elder brother ye!"

hearing this, the group was greatly shocked. the ye yun established red alliance was comparable to the core founding patriarch.

"do not persuade me further."

ye yun continued, "i ask the immortal to perform the spell!"

"with such determination! there is one in billions who can pass the spirit-refining formation. poor dao shall grant you an opportunity!"

applauding, spirit ginseng took out an array plate from his sleeve, set it up around ye yun, and activated the formation and prohibition with a spell.

within the formation,

ye yun’s vision darkened, and when he reopened his eyes, he was at sea with his father’s urging voice in his ear.

"ye yun, the sea dragon king is coming. hurry back to the shore."

"okay."

ye yun responded, feeling as if he had forgotten something very important, yet he couldn’t remember what it was.

in the outside world,

everyone saw ye yun sitting in the encompassing radiant light, his expression constantly changing.

confusion, fear, regret, despondency, pride, and even greed...

after about an hour.
