The great wizard gazed at the Demon Sealing Valley Cave, his aged face glowing with health; it was unclear whether he was happy or simply experiencing a final burst of energy before his birthday...
Ten days later, Li Ling disappeared in the Southern Frontier and embarked on his journey back to Qingyun Sect. After that, Li Ling never left the area around Qingyun Mountain again. He spent most of his time cultivating on Xiaozhu Peak, and in his spare time he would accompany Lu Xueqi, or occasionally come to the foot of the mountain to stay for a few days.
It wasn't until a century later, when the Ghost King of the Ghost King Sect challenged the righteous path with the Four Spirits Blood Array, that Li Ling left Qingyun Mountain for the first time in a hundred years. Facing the Four Spirits Blood Array manipulated by the Ghost King, he fought the Ghost King alone with his two swords for three days and three nights.
The final outcome is unknown to everyone, but after that, the Ghost King led the demonic sect to retreat again, and for the next thousand years, he never launched another attack on the righteous path.
Over the course of a thousand years, Li Ling combined his own "Hun Yuan Treasure Scripture" with the three major orthodox cultivation methods and the complete "Heavenly Book" to create an unprecedented cultivation method. It is rumored that this cultivation method can lead directly to the path of immortality, but no one has been able to verify it.
However, Li Ling and Lu Xueqi, who cultivated this technique, had lifespans that far exceeded those of other cultivators, causing all the righteous people to speculate endlessly.
Not long after, Li Ling spread his teachings throughout the world, passing on his cultivation techniques and the complete "Heavenly Book" to various sects, which allowed all cultivators to know that there was indeed hope for immortality in this world.
As Li Ling unearthed the secrets of immortality and created a cultivation method for all living beings to achieve it, he also received a notification from the system that he had completed his mission.
The End.
