Chapter 183 Quasi-Saint Late Stage! Another person from the East Sea
As Qi Yu killed the corpse that held me, his cultivation finally leaped forward again, and in an instant he reached the late stage of Quasi-Saint. He was only one step away from complete perfection.

For a moment, the central palace of the cave was filled with rosy clouds, and the vast aura of the Heavenly Venerable rose into the sky, covering the entire world, causing the Kunlun Mountains to tremble faintly. The Milky Way was even more agitated at this moment, rolling up huge waves, alarming countless people.

Many immortals in the Xuanmen and a group of powerful people on Kunlun were shocked at this moment by such a grand vision, especially the Xuanmen monks. At this moment, they could feel the vibration of the immortal fortune more clearly.

That feeling, as if some supreme undertaking was about to be accomplished, made their hearts tremble and they were surprised to the extreme.

And in the Yaochi Palace, the Queen Mother of the West was also watching this scene at this moment. Looking at the strange phenomenon above the cave palace, she was silent for a long time before she sighed to the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady beside her.

“Daoyou Qi Yu has made rapid progress! When I first met him, he was only half a step into Daoist status, but now he has reached this level. Not only has he completely surpassed me, but even those three Daoists may not be able to suppress him in the future.”

What the Queen Mother of the West said was from the heart. Once upon a time, she was the leader in the alliance and took the initiative in the cooperation with Qi Yu. However, this situation did not last long. With Qi Yu’s attainment of Luotian Dao, everything changed. Now, she is completely unable to catch up with the latter, which is somewhat of a blow to the Queen Mother of the West.

Fortunately, Qi Yu is indeed an excellent partner. At least over the years, one thing after another has proved that his decisions are often correct. It is also because of his existence that he is able to completely dominate the Dongji ancestral temple. This result does not seem to be bad.

On the side, Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu heard the Queen Mother of the West’s sigh and was also shocked.

She still remembered that she had fought with Qi Yu, who had not yet achieved enlightenment! She had already been defeated in that battle, defeated by Qi Yu, who was only a half-step Dao Lord at that time.

Now, I have finally become a powerful person. Whether in Xuanmen or the God Clan, I am definitely not a weakling. But I am obviously making progress, but now I can hardly see the back of the opponent. How can there be such an unreasonable thing in the world? !

For a moment, the huge gap made the Xuanmen female war god feel speechless, and then a strong sense of frustration rose in her heart.

Also shocked at this moment were Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun Daojun, who were currently in East Kunlun. Zhen Yuanzi built the Earth Immortal Palace on a fairy peak in East Kunlun to pass on the orthodox Dharma, and thus witnessed this scene.

Looking at the boundless immortal light blooming in the sky above the central palace of Dongyuan, Zhen Yuanzi couldn’t help but smile bitterly to his good friend Hongyun Daojun.

“I have always known that the Xishen Emperor was unfathomable, but I never thought that in just a few thousand years, he has already reached his current level. He is already in the late stage of Quasi-Saint!”

“In comparison, I have practiced for many years and have finally achieved the status of a quasi-saint. I thought I was one of the most important figures in the world, but now it is clear what a quasi-saint is. In today’s world, I can’t even be ranked!”

Taoist Hongyun is much more accepting of this.

“Emperor Xishen is not an ordinary person. You and I saw that when we first met him. Why are you still being so jealous? It would be better to practice hard. If that doesn’t work, it would be good for me to eat a few more of your ginseng fruits. Why bother with all this?”

“Well, you old man, you’re thinking about my ginseng fruit again. I didn’t expect so many of these good fruits would be wasted by you!”

While Zhen Yuanzi was laughing and scolding, he actually became more open-minded. He was no longer obsessed with Qi Yu’s breakthrough, but was focused on looking at Taoist Hongyun in front of him, as if he wanted him to return his fruit.

At this moment, many people were also shocked, such as Chixu Taoist Master who was transferred back to Dongji Ancestral Court from Penglai Continent because of Dong Wanggong, Yuansheng Taoist Master who just returned to Kunlun from Penglai Continent, and Ci Ju, the ancestor of the human race who also came to Dongji Ancestral Court from the East China Sea.

These people were more or less familiar with Qi Yu, and that was why they were even more shocked by the fact that Qi Yu had made another breakthrough. They even felt powerless because of it. Of course, they also had a common thought at this moment –

This Emperor Xishen is truly so terrifying!
……

At the same time, in the main hall of Dongyuan Palace.

At this moment, Qi Yu obviously didn’t have much time to pay attention to the disturbances in the outside world. All his attention was now focused on the corpse in front of him.

I don’t know why, whether it’s related to his original cultivation or the innate treasure and the position of God. In short, the corpse in front of me is too extraordinary. As soon as he cut it, he already has a terrifying cultivation comparable to the late quasi-saint, which is not inferior to Qi Yu’s original body.

Compared with the good corpse and the evil corpse before, the current state of the corpse holding me really surprised Qi Yu. Then, he felt the current state of the corpse holding me again.

“The foundation of your existence seems to be even more different. Is it related to the Hongmeng Purple Qi?”

“Yes, I guessed it right.”

Emperor Xuanyuan nodded and then said.

“I am the one holding my corpse. It was created from my obsession. It was formed from the primordial purple energy that I condensed. This is how I established my current cultivation.”

The Xuanyuan God in front of him obviously knew what Qi Yu wanted to know. Seeing the latter nod thoughtfully, he continued.

“Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the way I exist is similar to that of real living beings. Just as I thought, there may be a possibility of going further. I have already broadened the original upper limit of the method of beheading corpses and entered a new field.”

“Thinking carefully, this may be related to the one in Guixu. After all, that person left a mark in the Wanchuan Guiyuan Diagram, and I used the Wanchuan Guiyuan Diagram to slash. There must be a connection between them. Regarding this point, perhaps this master can see it more clearly than I do.”

The “that person” mentioned by Xuanyuan God is naturally the previous life “Yujiang” in Guixu. This is indeed what Qi Yu is thinking at the moment. After all, that person is a powerful person who is almost a saint. Although he is somewhat separated from his current body, there is still a fundamental connection between them.

Therefore, the mark left by it affects the result of beheading the corpse, which is not something difficult to accept in Qi Yu’s opinion, especially since the result brought about by this influence is very positive, which is even a good thing.

However, looking at the Xuanyuan God in front of him, Qi Yu suddenly thought of something and then smiled.

“As expected, you are obsessed with me. Can you empathize with my thoughts?”

“Actually, no.”

Lord Xuanyuan shook his head and then told everything.

“I don’t share the same thoughts with you. Perhaps it’s because I am the result of your obsession that I can think alike in every aspect. This is also the influence of your obsession. If you can truly resolve your obsession one day, everything will end.” “If I really resolve my obsession, then there will be no basis for your existence.”

Qi Yu smiled. The Three Corpses Method was created by him, so naturally he knew the key points of it best. The so-called killing the three corpses to prove the truth, first of all, the three corpses must be unified. This is not only a unity in realm, but more importantly, the three corpses themselves have been perfected in the process, and finally embarked on two different paths –

Or, one can forget about emotions and completely get rid of the three thoughts of good, evil and attachment, and from then on, transform from a human to a god, and from a god to a heaven, and completely approach the way of heaven. In this way, one can prove sainthood and naturally be successful in everything.

Otherwise, you should bring the three thoughts of good, evil and attachment back to your mind, but not be disturbed by them or moved by external things. This requires even higher standards for those who want to achieve enlightenment. You need to have thousands of thoughts in your mind and not be moved by any of them. Only in this way can you find your own opportunity to attain enlightenment.

There is actually no difference between these two different paths. It just depends on personal choice. After all, once you have reached the stage of Hun Yuan, how can the choice of path make a difference? Even apart from the method of becoming a saint by beheading the three corpses, other methods such as becoming a saint by merit and virtue and becoming a saint by combining with the Tao are also the same. They all lead to the same destination.

But there is one thing about the method of beheading the Three Corpses, that is, no matter which path you take, after the Three Corpses become one, the foundation of the existence of the Three Corpses gods will inevitably be disintegrated, and this is also the purpose of the method of beheading the Three Corpses.

Xuanyuan God obviously didn’t care about this, and Qi Yu just laughed it off. In a sense, Xuanyuan God was Qi Yu himself, and Qi Yu naturally didn’t care whether the Three Corpse Gods could survive forever. After all, beheading the Three Corpses was just a way and a means, and its purpose was to allow the quasi-saints to get closer to the right path, rather than to disturb people’s minds and ruin their chances of becoming enlightened.

After exchanging a few more words with Emperor Xuanyuan, Qi Yu asked the question he wanted to know most.

“Since you have expanded the upper limit of the Three Corpses Law, in your opinion, do you have a hope of achieving enlightenment?”

This question finally made God Xuanyuan silent. He could not answer such a question. After all, he was still far from the realm of Hunyuan. There had never been a true saint in the world today. Therefore, this question could not be answered. He could only guess based on the existing conditions.

Finally, after thinking for a long time, Emperor Xuanyuan finally said.

“I don’t have the answer to your question. If I don’t unite the three corpses, this may be a path I can try, but the hope is not great.”

“And I don’t know what kind of Tao fruit I should achieve if I can really achieve it, the Hunyuan Sage? Or the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian? There is no precedent for this fact, so there is no way to talk about it.”

Qi Yu pondered for a moment about this answer, but ultimately did not give his own evaluation, because there was no need for Xuanyuan God to do anything at the moment, so Qi Yu let this corpse of mine go on its own, and he could travel around the prehistoric land, where he might encounter unexpected opportunities.

As for himself, he continued to practice in seclusion in the central palace of the cave, stabilizing his newly improved cultivation level. He finally came out after several months. As soon as he came out, he received a piece of news.

“Ci Ju came to see me?”

“Did you say what it was?”

“Your Majesty, no.”

The fairy boy who came to report did not know the details, he only knew that Ci Ju was still waiting in Kunlun and had not left.

After thinking about it, Qi Yu felt that this must be a big deal, but it might not be that urgent. At that moment, he did not leave the Dongyuan Palace, but directly summoned Ci Ju.

Soon, the ancestor of mankind came from East Kunlun. When he saw Qi Yu, he immediately bowed and praised him.

“Meet the Holy Master.”

“I respectfully congratulate the Holy Master for accepting the position of the Lord of Heaven. From now on, he will be located in the north and be honored as the Lord of the Five Spirits.”

“His Majesty Emperor Hong ordered me to come and congratulate you and present a list of gifts to show the human race’s regards.”

At that moment, Ci Ju actually took out a gift list and presented it. According to the records in the list, the gifts sent by the human race this time were quite a lot, and there was even an innate spiritual treasure. Even if the grade was not high, it was enough to represent the intentions of the human race and Di Hong.

Seeing this, Qi Yu immediately laughed.

“Fellow Daoist Di Hong is really too polite. The human race is also well-intentioned. I am the Saint Master of the human race, and I am one with you. Why do you have to set up so many formalities between you and me?”

Qi Yu could say this, but Ci Ju would never take it seriously. She said no, but when she saw the smile on Qi Yu’s face, she knew how satisfied the former was, so she spoke more respectfully and politely.

“Reporting to Saint Master, Saint Master, your teaching of our human race is truly a great contribution, but our human race has little to offer in return. Therefore, from His Majesty Emperor Hong to the elders in the ancestral land, they often toss and turn because of this matter and find it difficult to calm down.”

“Now that Saint Master is getting married, it is a rare opportunity for the human race to congratulate him. This is a small token of our gratitude, and it is by no means an act of courtesy. I hope Saint Master can understand this.”

It was obvious that Ci Ju clan’s intention to continue to curry favor with the human race was obvious, so Qi Yu had no intention of continuing to embarrass the former. He just listened to the good words, smiled, and brought up a new topic.

“I understand the intentions of Fellow Daoist Di Hong and the human race. Speaking of which, Fellow Daoist Ci Ju, I’m afraid you came to me not only for gifts. If you have anything else, just tell me all at once.”

“Your Majesty, I am here for a reason. However, it seems that Your Majesty has been in seclusion for a long time, so I am afraid that you may not be very clear about this matter.”

“Oh, what’s the matter?”

This time, Qi Yu was really curious and asked this question immediately.

Ci Ju obviously did not intend to hide it, nor would he keep it a secret. He spoke directly to Qi Yu.

“Saint Master may not know this, but a fight has already broken out in the East China Sea!”
