This world seemed clearer than ever before.

It was subtly different from before. He used to see mountains as mountains and water as water.

But now, he saw mountains not as mountains and water not as water.

It was as if the most fundamental secrets of the world had been revealed to him.

What was the most fundamental structure of this world? Chen Yuan had once doubted it, but now he was certain of a sentence Moro had said to him.

All things in the world are composed of various rules.

He used to vaguely understand, but now, with such clarity revealed to him, he understood a little.

The amber divine pearl, the size of a plate above his head, had now shrunk by more than half, to the size of a palm. It was foreseeable that it would soon be completely consumed.

The surrounding Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi began to gather rapidly, the scene growing larger and larger, like dark clouds covering the top, bringing an extremely powerful sense of oppression.

Moro, who was watching from afar, slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Only now did he completely relax. Before, Chen Yuan really had no trace of life in him, like an inanimate object.

Although he knew that this was the only way to comprehend the rules, to completely empty his mind, he was still worried that Chen Yuan would fail in the process of comprehending the rules.

Failure was not terrible. Failure to comprehend the rules was a common occurrence. Even he had failed many times when comprehending the rules.

And it would not cause too much damage, only making the Yuan Shen weak for a period of time, after which it could be restored. What he was worried about was that Chen Yuan had always been undefeated and had made rapid progress in cultivation. If he suffered a setback, it might affect his mind for a while.

And the current situation was also relatively tense.

Although Bodhisattva Jishi had been planning in the Western Regions for many years, it was still insignificant compared to Lingshan. Now, in order to buy time for Chen Yuan, he did not hesitate to risk falling to delay Lingshan's time, and they had to determine the situation in the Central Plains in the shortest possible time, if not completely occupy the thirteen states, at least occupy an absolute advantage.

In other words, the time left for them was running out.

Chen Yuan's breakthrough would bring greater hope to their future, and the longer the delay, the more unfavorable it would be. He also knew that Chen Yuan must be aware of this situation, so he directly put everything aside to improve his cultivation after returning from the Western Regions.

He could mobilize the Destiny of Great Yan and the power of the people, and his strength would skyrocket, but those were still external forces, and external forces would definitely have the risk of being broken.

Only one's own power was the most trustworthy.

When the Chu Taizu Dynasty's national destiny was added to his body, he was indeed invincible in the world, and there were indeed reasons for the national destiny, but essentially, his own strength was very strong.

It was good to add icing on the cake, but if you regarded it as your own power, you would definitely die miserably.

Yuan Qi was like wind, accompanying his body.

Chen Yuan clearly felt that he was more closely connected to this world, as if he could completely integrate into it, like the unity of heaven and man. He stretched out a finger and gently pointed it in the void.

The surrounding hundred feet of void instantly twisted, and wisps of rules lingered in his palm. With more and more rules surrounding him, an astonishing aura also completely erupted!

......

Southern Border, Hundred Thousand Mountains.

For hundreds of miles around, there was no one, extremely dead, and even the void was filled with a strong evil spirit. This place was a main battlefield for the human race's campaign against demons hundreds of years ago.

The human and demon races suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties, and the flesh and blood seeped into the ground. With hundreds of years of transformation, it had become a fierce place in the Southern Border. Even demons were unwilling to come here.

For fear of being entangled by the evil spirit and seeping into the flesh.

But now, there was a slight difference.

Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi constantly gathered from afar towards this place, and the evil spirit condensed into substance, like a wolf smoke reaching the sky, and in the center of the black pillar of evil spirit, there was a figure hovering.

That figure had long hair, a yellow robe, and a lifelike giant python was tattooed on the clothes, but this python robe was different from ordinary people. It had four claws and a beard under its jaw, majestic and awe-inspiring.

And its identity was naturally obvious, it was the former Chu Crown Prince, the head of the Xiang family's descendants, Chen Yuan's father, Xiang Qianqiu!

He stared at the rolling wolf smoke of evil spirit, his eyes deep, and his thoughts were full of thoughts.

When he decided to break through the sixth realm and enter the immortal realm, he did not hesitate any longer. That was just a daughter's gesture. For a hero like him, once he decided, he had to do it.

What losses, what failures, had all become the past.

Therefore, he came to this place, a breakthrough place that had been prepared long ago.

He liked to make a lot of preparations. Originally, the first one was to devour Chen Yuan's blood essence in order to break the shackles and improve his physical body to a level comparable to that of a demon god before breaking through.

It was also his plan for many years....

For demon gods, there was no great shackle for breaking through the sixth realm 'dripping blood to be reborn'. Although it was also difficult, there were strong people in every generation who could break through and cultivate an inner world.

But it was different for the human race. The demon race was not suitable for the way of the Yuan Shen. Their spirits were weak and unable to condense into a Yuan Shen. Since ancient times, no demon race powerhouse had broken this shackle.

But in terms of the physical body, they had a natural advantage. Thousands of years ago, the demon race relied on its powerful physical body to become the master of the world and was called a demon god.

And the human race ancestors found the most suitable path for the human race to cultivate, that was to take the path of the Yuan Shen, that is, the immortal path. This point, at a certain realm, or with a certain background, was somewhat clear.

And in terms of the physical body, the human race had an upper limit. For thousands of years, there were many people who cultivated to the Great Accomplishment of Supernatural Powers, and there were not a few peaks, but only Chu Taizu broke the shackles and became a saint.

And hidden inside was a huge secret, a secret that only the highest level figures of the Xiang family knew, that was the dual cultivation of the physical body and the Yuan Shen.

It was also for this reason that not many people in the world knew about the division of the sixth realm of the physical body. Even Chen Yuan, who had once stood at a certain height, only knew about it under Moro's guidance.

It was because the Xiang family had intentionally or unintentionally hidden this news for hundreds of years, trying to make it a path that the human race could not take. This was not Chu Taizu's wish, but it complied with the interests of the Xiang family.

Because in this world, it was enough to have an invincible Chu Taizu, there was no need for a second one.

Dual cultivation of the physical body and the Yuan Shen was not a big secret. Some strong people would try to cultivate it in order to bring powerful strength and enhance their own methods.

But it was different when it came to the sixth realm and above.

The reason why Xiang Qianqiu had been suppressing his cultivation, and still chose to suppress it even though he could have broken through a long time ago, was based on this secret.

That was, when dual cultivating the physical body and the Yuan Shen, one must first break through the sixth realm of the physical body, condense an inner world, and then immediately break through the sixth realm of the Yuan Shen, and connect with the outer world.

The inside and outside are united, and the heaven and earth are connected with oneself. Its strength is enough to make an existence that has just entered the sixth realm directly comparable to a land immortal powerhouse who has opened up a cave!!!

This is equivalent to directly crossing a large realm, and its combat power is unparalleled, without any shortcomings. The reason why Chu Taizu was able to be invincible in the first place was based on this.

This was the path that Chu Taizu had inadvertently explored, and it was recorded in the Xiang family's inheritance. As for others, no matter if they were in the high immortal realm or immortal sects that had been passed down for thousands of years, as long as they did not take this path, they would never be able to know.

After many people tried to break through the sixth realm of the physical body and failed, they would continue to take the path of the Yuan Shen, only thinking that the human race could not take it, and would not think of combining the two.

Even if they thought about it, wanting to break through the sixth realm of the physical body was an almost impossible thing for human race martial artists, let alone the extremely harsh conditions for the unity of the inner and outer worlds.

Even Moro had only cultivated his physical body to the Great Accomplishment of Supernatural Powers, and then took the orthodox Yuan Shen path of the human race.

The destruction of Great Chu was just a coincidence that the Sima family became pawns of the immortal realm. Without the Sima family, there would be other families, immortal sects, and forces.

His real enemy was the immortal realm in the Nine Heavens.

Therefore, after he learned about this secret of the Xiang family's inheritance, he was determined to follow the path of Taizu, obtain powerful combat power, and once again make the Xiang family invincible in the world.

If he took the path of the Yuan Shen, he would only be an ordinary human immortal who had just entered the sixth realm. It was impossible to cultivate to a land immortal in a short period of time.

It would take at least hundreds of years. Relying on the God-Slaying Spear to bring an increase, it was still nothing to the land immortal. It was impossible to recreate the glory of Great Chu.

Therefore, he must take a shortcut.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to kill his wife and harm his son, embarking on a path of exterminating humanity, forcibly extracting the bloodline of the Xiang family members and instilling it into that child.

And in the future, send more Xiang family bloodlines to him. Xiang Lingtian and his son fell in this way.

In his vision, stepping into the path of the God of War, and then condensing the imperial dynasty's national destiny, even a land immortal powerhouse could not take him down, giving him a period of time to cultivate.

Even a celestial immortal above the land immortal, he was not without the confidence to fight.

What Chu Taizu could do, he could do the same, even better, so that he could wash away the crimes he had committed over the years.

He could find excuses for himself. Everything he did was for Great Chu and for the inheritance of the Xiang family.

But... things are unpredictable.

The son who had always been regarded as a pawn actually made a comeback. Unknowingly, he secretly established a force comparable to an immortal sect, and there was also a land immortal powerhouse to support him.

Even Lingshan, the head of the immortal sects, could not do anything to him. The force he painstakingly created collapsed in one fell swoop, and most of it belonged to him. Now, he is even fully investigating his and the Xiang family's whereabouts, determined to eradicate them completely.

The feng shui turns, don't bully the young and poor.

The relationship between him and Chen Yuan was reversed.

Under Lu Guangsheng's persuasion, his long-held belief was shaken. He found that he seemed to be far inferior to Taizu and could not take his path.

Since this was the case, he could only take the next best thing and break through the sixth realm with the Yuan Shen.

And the scene of breaking through the sixth realm was not small, and the rules were not revealed in the secret realm. In order not to be noticed and discovered by Chen Yuan, he came to this place that had been prepared before.

He did not know how long had passed outside. He only knew that he had been in seclusion for no less than half a month, and all the states of his body had reached their peak.

Ready, start to break through this natural chasm.

He did not believe that Chen Yuan could break through in such a short period of time and comprehend the rules that he had explored for decades. As long as Chen Yuan did not comprehend the rules, he would be an ant in front of him.

After Moro was blocked, Chen Yuan would be at his mercy.

He really felt a little sorry that Chen Yuan was unwilling to ease his relationship with him in front of the Goddess Palace. Otherwise, he could even train the other party to continue taking this path.

But now, the other party wants him dead, and he has lived for so long, and Great Chu has not yet been restored, so he cannot die. Since this is the case... he can only send this rebellious son on his way.

Let him, little by little, cultivate and find his own path in the long years.

Xiang Qianqiu sat cross-legged in the void, and the surrounding rules condensed into substance, slowly surrounding his body. At the same time, it also emitted a Taoist rhyme that fit the heaven and earth.

The God-Slaying Spear swallowed evil spirits, as if it had spirituality, and protected Xiang Qianqiu.

His mind gradually sank, and the Yuan Shen in the Lingtai broke out of its shell, allowing the power of the rules to merge with the Yuan Shen, and the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi also vibrated violently.

In the heaven and earth, there were continuous visions, real dragons and colorful phoenixes dancing, white deer and spiritual cranes hovering, and drops of spiritual liquid seemed to fall from the void. On the ground, all things recovered and were full of vitality.

And this was the vision of becoming an immortal, which varied from person to person.

He said that he wanted to enter the sixth realm easily, with an essential difference from Ye Xiangnan, so he could easily suppress and defeat him.

What was trapping him was only the shackles of the physical body, not the Yuan Shen.

I don't know how long it has passed, the visions of Xiang Qianqiu are getting bigger and bigger, and the power of the rules is also condensing more and more. The original nine-inch Yuan Shen has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The body of his Yuan Shen continued to extend, the rules were the bones, and the Yuan Qi was the supplement, and it forcibly turned the Yuan Shen, which was a few inches in size, into an existence that was several feet tall, no different from Xiang Qianqiu.

There is no essential difference between the two. If you really want to divide one, then it is only from now on that Xiang Qianqiu can even abandon his physical body and exist in the heaven and earth with his Yuan Shen.

For some people, the physical body is a dirty thing, and the Yuan Shen is pure and flawless. It is also relying on the Yuan Shen that immortals can have a lifespan of nearly a thousand years.

Xiang Qianqiu's physical body opened its eyes, and the Yuan Shen also opened its eyes. The two looked at each other and smiled, as if each had their own wisdom.

The rich power of rules that hovered around the Yuan Shen was transformed into a flower of rules.

One flower gathers on the top, which is the immortal realm.

When Xiang Qianqiu's three flowers gather on the top, it is the cultivation base of the peak of the human immortal.

After calming down for a long time, Xiang Qianqiu looked at the Central Plains in the north and said softly to himself:

"Rebellious son, are you ready? Father... is going to clean up the house!"

And what he did not know was that when he broke through the sixth realm and wanted to kill Chen Yuan, Chen Yuan also entered the semi-immortal realm at the fastest speed because he wanted to kill him!

————

Originally wanted to put it later, but everyone doesn't understand why the sixth realm of the physical body is so strong, and there is no reason for everything Xiang Qianqiu did, so I will reveal it in advance.

Don't worry, the real life and death situation between father and son is about to begin.
