Immortal Father

Here lies the heavy earth, the endless water, and the swift fire.

Among the Five Elements Paths, his Dao Body commands three!

The Primordial Spirit of Li Ping’an controls the Slaughter Path, Avenue of All Beings, and Avenue of Azure Clouds, yet none of them stirred. Only the paths innate to his Dao Body resisted the pressure unleashed by Zhunti.

Though Zhunti hadn’t fully exerted himself, he remained a Saint of the Heavenly Dao...

Nüwa cast a knowing smile at the back of Li Ping’an.

The Heavenly Emperor is no longer the little Taoist in a green robe from yesterday.

Inside the Great Hall of Lingshan.

Behind Zhunti, there surged golden light. A figure sat cross-legged within it, possessing hundreds of pure white arms, layers of golden light treasure wheels, and a Qibao Mi Tree.

Li Ping’an’s face turned somewhat pale, yet he still lifted his chin to gaze at Zhunti, his eyes bearing a hint of mockery.

It was the mockery of ’Saints are merely this.’

Clearly, solely relying on Dao Charm pressure, while Zhunti could suppress Li Ping’an, he couldn’t entirely subdue this young Heavenly Emperor.

"Your Majesty has remarkable skill."

Zhunti spoke slowly, the golden light behind him instantly dissipating:

"In such a short time, to cultivate to this realm, Your Majesty truly has grasped the true essence of the Transcender."

Li Ping’an raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

It was the Dao Body’s own reaction, he wasn’t evasive.

Li Ping’an spoke leisurely:

"Before the pressure of Master’s and Shishu Master’s presence, I couldn’t withstand for even an instant. But with you, junior brother, I can maintain some semblance."

"Certainly, the Transcender Teacher taught me some secret techniques, offered numerous benefits, and the Primordial Phoenix Senior gifted the Phoenix Clan’s source power to assist."

"But ultimately, without Hongmeng Purple Qi, the teacher was still not overly partial to me."

Zhunti wasn’t annoyed either: "Your Majesty wouldn’t have agreed to some condition of the Transcender, would you?"

"On this point, I’m not as good as my two junior brothers... Let’s not idle chat, let’s discuss Maitreya."

Li Ping’an laughed:

"I only wait for junior brother a stick of incense time, if you can’t make decisions, perhaps quickly consult Jie Yin junior brother.

"Since my arrival, junior brother, you’ve changed your address to me several times... Alas, ultimately I’m lacking in strength, unable to persuade you to sincerely call me senior brother."

Zhunti nodded with a smile, his figure transformed into light and dispersed.

Li Ping’an squinted and chuckled.

He stood up to continue appreciating the wall paintings on another side.

Meanwhile, he quietly refined a wisp of congested blood from his chest, turning it into foul air that emitted through his pores.

’Goodness, the saint’s might truly isn’t something I can challenge directly.’

’The Saint of the Heavenly Dao within heaven and earth truly doesn’t have much weaker strength compared to the teacher in the Chaos Sea, no wonder the teacher had to escape, before the Six Saints return, the teacher must flee, thereby earn some conditions.’

’Also, I wonder if each innate spiritual treasure’s power would be stronger under a saint’s support.’

His mind crossed with many thoughts, continuing his leisurely stroll.

Zhunti left yet was slow to return.

Meanwhile, unaware that his son was confronting a saint, Li Dazhi’s mindset was like a roller coaster, going up and down.

...

"Ah~~ yo~~"

Li Dazhi lay in a lounge chair holding his heart, forehead pressed against a hot towel, behind him stood the Second Lady Wen Rou Immortal, enjoying Wen Rou’s shoulder massage, and several maids pounding his legs.

Wen Rou sighed: "What’s wrong with you? Coming back sighing like this."

"I... I’m feeling uncomfortable, it’s cold here."

Li Dazhi pointed at his heart, randomly pulling over a warm stove to cover himself.

He quivered: "This life truly cannot go on for another day!"

"What, do you want to marry third, fourth, fifth ones?"

Wen Rou pinched Li Dazhi’s ear:

"You’ve become a Golden Immortal, Dao Body free of illness, nothing inside or outside is amiss."

"We’ve agreed, you bear with it, Moon Sister and I’s lifespan is limited, likely won’t succeed in reaching Golden Immortal, wait for us two to pass then you’ll marry."

"Oh wife, is this the same matter? You all still have your lifespan, don’t speak unlucky words."

Li Dazhi sighed lightly:

"I have something on my mind, I feel suffocated!"

"You see... you all go down."

"Yes," a group of singing ladies answered softly, then quickly turned to leave.

Li Dazhi held Wen Rou’s hand, feeling emotional: "You know, I’m the main tribulator of the Dao Immortal Tribulation, right?"

"Yes."

Wen Rou sat on the armrest of the rocker, speaking softly:

"My man is a very capable person, Sect Leader of the largest sect, Minister of Wealth in the Heavenly Court, father of the Heavenly Emperor, also building Dong’an City so magnificently, moreover a principal in the upcoming great tribulation."

"Principal for what!"

Li Dazhi looked up sighing:

"I’m probably just a major villain."

"Hm?" Wen Rou, puzzled, "Villain? Why?"

"Isn’t this because the guy Weiyan brought a Black Panther... anyway, this is hard to explain, you just consider it as Heaven told me."

Li Dazhi exhaled long:

"Actually, being a villain in a great tribulation isn’t bad at all."

"Not to mention, the Daoist Celestial Consecration Tribulation is about forcing powerful immortals of the Taoist Sect to become officials in the Heavenly Court, with mandatory measures, practically genuine heavenly slaves, they must obey the Heavenly Emperor’s decree, the Heavenly Court will prosper as a result, and the Heavenly Dao will gain more strength."

"This is definitely advantageous for Ping’an."

"I go do this dirty work, isn’t it just fitting?"

"But... alas! Intercepting Sect Immortals are quite lovable, especially, our Li family received much help from the Intercepting Sect, I turn around to scheme against the Intercepting Sect? Can I still be considered human? Can Li Dazhi be so vile?"

"As people, we shouldn’t just pursue profit!"

Wen Rou blinked: "East Continent’s great wealth master says people shouldn’t just pursue profit... no longer the time you’re making Ping’an brand toothpaste to earn Spirit Stones! Let the immortals with pure bodies brush their teeth daily!"
