Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

There should be many secrets involved here.

"Cangyun was previously known as 'Near Immortal Realm' and it was once glorious during ancient times. It was one of the few Great Realms in the Immortal Domain, considered a strong foundation..."

At this point, Fang Lingchuan realized and smiled apologetically: "You, Chu Xianzun, know more about the Cangyun Realm than I do, my apologies for misspeaking."

"No worries, if there are other ancient tales or secrets, feel free to share. I have some interest as a newcomer."

Chu Zheng waved his hand nonchalantly and continued to ask, "Let's start with the Immortal Crossing Ceremony in two years, the Dao Inquiry Grand Competition, and the Heart Burning Corridor left by the Ancestor of Ancient Immortals. Daoist Fang, please tell me about them."

"The Immortal Crossing Ceremony is set by the Ancestor of Ancient Martial using the Heavenly Fortune Immortal Tablet. It directly connects to the Immortal Dao Heavenly Destiny, held every two hundred years. Those under two hundred bone age can participate, and it only considers cultivation realm and profound mana, without the need for fighting. The champion can receive the baptism of destiny."

"Those who receive the baptism of destiny soar to great heights after the Immortal Crossing Ceremony, progressing rapidly in their cultivation. It has always been this way, and I've heard that the deeper the Primordial Spirit's foundation, the more benefits one will receive."

A trace of anticipation appeared in Fang Lingchuan's expression: "With your current cultivation realm, you might achieve great fortune."

What kind of gift the Immortal Dao Heavenly Destiny would give to an Immortal Venerable under two hundred, perhaps even the Immortal Ancestor couldn't guess.

"As for the Dao Inquiry Grand Competition, there's not much to say. In terms of combat power, no one can match you. What treasures can be obtained completely depends on your fortune, as for the Heart Burning Corridor..."

A trace of fear flickered in Fang Lingchuan's eyes: "The Heart Burning Corridor lives up to its name. Due to diverse personal experiences, the trials faced differ greatly. I was once trapped in there, as if enduring endless years, ultimately only penetrating a hundred yards before retreating."

"The Heart Burning Corridor is divided into three sections. The first, called 'Burning Memory', shrouds all your memories within this distance, digging out the most regretful events of your life for you to relive repeatedly until you see through your heart demon."

"The second section is 'Burning Desire', which constructs an illusion that corresponds with your obsessions based on your seven emotions and six desires, thoughts, and feelings. What you desire most in the illusion is inevitably realized, and nine out of ten who experience the Heart Burning Corridor fall here."

"The third section is 'Burning Heart', where everything you fear is materialized. You will find yourself in an endless purgatory, seemingly frozen in eternal time and space, unable to seek life or death."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zheng showed some interest: "Given it's so challenging, how many have passed through the Heart Burning Corridor?"

"To my knowledge, the last person to completely pass through the Heart Burning Corridor is the current Immortal Ancestor."

Fang Lingchuan thought for a moment, slightly shook his head: "Besides the Immortal Ancestor, no others."

Chu Zheng mused, with only one person, the Immortal Ancestor, completely clearing it, which proves the difficulty of crossing the Heart Burning Corridor.

The first and second sections can still be dealt with easily. His life seemingly has no great regrets, as for obsession, he once had the thought of leaving a mark for eternity before leaving Cangyun. Now he only wishes to have enough strength to protect himself when contending for the Dao.

As for the Burning Heart section, it remains profoundly mysterious, perhaps only by experiencing it personally can one understand the key to it.

"It's said that beneath the Heart Burning Corridor, the head of the Sun-Eroding Cry is suppressed, and someone has witnessed it."

A lingering fear remained on Fang Lingchuan's face: "Some have entered during the Burning Heart stage and found themselves on the ancient battlefield during the primordial war, being killed countless times within it, unable to escape, with their divine soul nearly collapsing."

Hearing this, Chu Zheng's spirit was lifted: "Who exactly is this Sun-Eroding Cry?"

Fang Lingchuan hesitated briefly, then slowly spoke: "This is recorded in the secret chronicles of my family, whether true or false, you, Chu Xianzun, may just hear it out."

"Sun-Eroding Cry was once the Ancestor of Martial Arts, an Ancient Martial Ancestor in the great war of ancient times, and his direct disciple."

Chu Zheng showed a trace of surprise: "Why would his head be here?"

Fang Lingchuan didn't say any more but conveyed in a low voice:

"Our clan's secret records state that the Ancestor of Ancient Immortals set himself as bait, inviting three Ancestral Realm masters to assist in capturing Sun-Eroding Cry, tricking him into the Vast Universe Great Realm. With the power of many Ancient Ancestors in the Vast Universe Great Realm, Sun-Eroding Cry was suppressed, his head severed, and his remains were taken back to the Immortal Domain, suppressed beneath the Great Immortal Realm."

"It seems that Daoist Ancestor also participated in this matter."

"Daoist Ancestor again?" Chu Zheng frowned, puzzled as to how this was linked to the Daoist Ancestor.

"I don't really know the specific details, my apologies."

Fang Lingchuan smiled apologetically, changing the topic: "There are still two years until the Immortal Crossing Ceremony. How about I take you around for a while?"

"No need, Daoist Fang, you may return to the Upper Realm first. After the Immortal Crossing Ceremony, I will return to the Upper Realm myself."

Chu Zheng shook his head slightly, intending to send Fang Lingchuan away first, finding it somewhat inconvenient to have someone following him around.

"That's not possible, by the decree of Moonlight Immortal Ancestor, I must not leave your side during your stay in the Great Immortal Realm."

Fang Lingchuan shook his head, his expression solemn: "The Immortal Ancestor has made it clear, there's no negotiation on this."

Chu Zheng was momentarily stunned, then realized and said no more.

The Great Immortal Realm, to him, was not completely safe either.

If an Ancestral Realm master were to directly strike, even Moonlight Immortal Ancestor might not be able to save him in time in a hurry.

Fang Lingchuan by his side was more like a protective amulet.

Only by staying alive can one have value; once dead, everything becomes void.

Chu Zheng calmed his emotions, found a place within the city to settle down, and devoted himself to closed-door cultivation.

...

...

In the blink of an eye, it has been two years.

Even in the lower realm of the Great Immortal Realm, Chu Zheng's cultivation had still progressed substantially, with his Immortal Path cultivation stepping into the mid-stage of Immortal Venerable, surpassing over a hundred years spent in Cangyun.

This was greatly related to his fusion with the Ancestor Blood. If not for Xumi Sheng's Ancestor Blood, he wouldn't have advanced this quickly.

The speed of Qi Refining cultivation remained faster than that of Immortal Path, becoming more smooth after the death of Daoist Ancestor Zheng Chu, with early-stage Mysterious Immortal nearing perfection.

If he steps into mid-stage Mysterious Immortal, his cultivation could rival a Great Immortal Venerable, second only to an Immortal King.

During this time, through the Repair Panel, he also repaired several Immortal Venerable Artifact fragments he had obtained before.

He didn't pay much heed to these Immortal Venerable Artifacts, as they could only accompany him for so long, just to have several more trump cards for protection.

Crossing the Boundary, obtaining a cultivation environment like the Great Immortal Realm again would be challenging.

On the eve of the Immortal Crossing Ceremony, Chu Zheng emerged from seclusion.

Fang Lingchuan was waiting outside the door, and she had been sitting there for two years as well.

Seeing Chu Zheng emerge, she immediately rose to greet him, and upon sensing the increasingly profound immortal charm emanating from him, her face bloomed with a wide smile, bowing in respect:

"Congratulations to Chu Xianzun on your great progress in cultivation!"

"Thank you, Daoist Fang, for standing guard."

After a few pleasantries, Chu Zheng said no more, raising his hand to pierce the void, and in an instant, he arrived at the venue of the Immortal Crossing Ceremony.

...

...

(This chapter might require some modification, refresh after twenty minutes.)

At this moment, the venue was already packed with people,

"Today, the ranking opens, and the leader ascends the Immortal Crossing Platform, waiting. During the observation, everyone, please show some restraint."

Seeing Chu Zheng's name appearing at the top, the multitude of cultivators turned green with envy.

Asking them to compete for fortune with an Immortal Venerable? What a joke!

If Chu Zheng didn't restrain his presence, even a glance could harm their divine souls. If he harbored murderous intent, they would be dead in an instant.
