Immortal Martial Arts: Marry a Wife and Live a Long Life

Chapter 286: Breaking the Ancient Record, Suppressing the Great Emperor with a Single Palm, Ascending Dao-Seeking Mountain, and Obtaining the Greatest Good Fortune

Fire Phoenix Cave.

Han Li calmly looked at the stone tablet in front of him, covered in mysterious runic power, and asked, "I want the Fire Phoenix Lotus. Are there any more difficult tests?"

Just now, he entered the Fire Phoenix Cave and directly chose the most difficult fifth trial. The Fire Phoenix Beast King, with the strength of a Ninth Stage Immortal Realm, attacked with unparalleled might.

Han Li didn't even use his divine sense. With just three punches, he shattered all the Fire Phoenix Beast Kings and passed this trial.

The jade stone tablet flickered with runes, and lines of golden words appeared.

"To obtain the Fire Phoenix Lotus, you must suppress the Fire Phoenix Beast King with the strength of a Ninth Stage Immortal Realm."

Han Li's gaze flickered. This was indeed difficult. No wonder no one had passed this hidden trial since ancient times.

To suppress nine Fire Phoenix Beast Kings with the strength of a Ninth Stage Immortal Realm was something even ordinary peak Immortal Realm experts couldn't do. They would be killed by the Fire Phoenix Beast Kings.

Han Li immediately thought of another possibility. Perhaps no one was as greedy as him, wanting not only the nine lotus seeds but also the Fire Phoenix Lotus.

Those supreme geniuses who could pass the fifth trial all came from the major Daoist sects and didn't need to scrape the ground three feet deep like Han Li.

"Come."

Han Li moved his hands and feet, his tone calm.

His strength was stronger than that of an ordinary peak Immortal Realm expert. He wanted to see if he could pass the hidden level without using his divine sense.

Brilliant immortal runes burst forth in the sky, condensing into nine Fire Phoenix Beast Kings emitting terrifying auras. The nine pairs of crimson eyes stared at Han Li, and in the next instant, they charged towards him. With a casual strike, they could annihilate the entire universe and overturn the heavens and earth.

"Boom!"

Han Li didn't hold back and fought fiercely with the nine Fire Phoenix Beast Kings, expending a lot of energy before suppressing them.

The jade stone tablet rumbled again, and endless immortal runes bloomed, dazzling with immortal light, and new golden words appeared.

"Break the record of the Fire Phoenix Cave. Will you leave your real name?"

Han Li's pupils contracted, and after thinking for a moment, he refused and casually said a name.

The immortal runes retracted, and a line of golden words appeared, directly reaching the top of the jade stone tablet.

"Li Feiyu, with a single punch, suppressed nine Fire Phoenix Beast Kings with the strength of a Ninth Stage Immortal Realm, setting the highest record in the Fire Phoenix Cave."

Then, the golden words disappeared, and three orbs descended from the sky. Han Li inspected them before putting them away.

They were nine Fire Phoenix Lotus seeds, the Fire Phoenix Lotus itself, and the Good Fortune reward for breaking the record, which was even better than the previous two.

When Han Li walked out of the Fire Phoenix Cave, the entire world fell silent. All the cultivators of the second step looked in shock at the jade stone tablet that pierced through the sky, looking at the new record at the top.

"This isn't a newcomer, it's an invincible powerhouse!"

"What a joke! Killing nine Fire Phoenix Beast Kings with the strength of a Ninth Stage Immortal Realm? The Fire Phoenix Cave doesn't have a trial of this difficulty, right?"

"Hiss~ This Li Feiyu has broken the record since the Thirty-Six Dynasties of the Heavenly Court."

"Breaking the highest record, ascending to the top of the Fire Phoenix Cave, does this mean that Li Feiyu is the strongest in the Heavenly Sovereign Realm?"

"In our era, a genius with potential that surpasses ancient and modern times, a talent that surpasses all ages, has appeared. We are fortunate to witness it in our lifetime."

Countless cultivators were discussing fervently, no longer underestimating Li Feiyu, but instead paying great attention to him.

When they withdrew their gazes and looked towards the open Fire Phoenix Cave, they were dumbfounded. Where did Li Feiyu go?

At this moment, Han Li had already returned to the Five Immortals City. He casually found an immortal wine shop and poured a cup of spiritual wine into his mouth.

"This wine is truly extraordinary. Even after I drink it, I feel a warm sensation in my Primordial Spirit, as if it has become even purer."

Speaking to himself, Han Li paid for the wine and left the wine shop, walking in the immensely huge Five Immortals City.

It was said that the Five Immortals City was created by five war immortals working together. These five war immortals were like brothers, and after leaving the Virtual Immortal World, they made a name for themselves in the Primordial World. One became a quasi-immortal emperor, while the other four became immortal kings.

The history of the Five Immortals City was extremely ancient, and it had changed its city lord many times. Each time, there would be five city lords, each of them a war immortal.

The current Five Immortals City was no exception. Among the five city lords, the strongest possessed the strength of the Fifth Stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, surpassing Qi Xingyu, Guan Shan Yue, and Lan Ruochen, the other war immortals.

As time passed, when billions of cultivators gathered in the Five Immortals City, Qi Xingyu from the Fengpeng Domain and Guan Shan Yue from the Dingyang Domain arrived at the same time. The first city lord of the Five Immortals City also appeared, presiding over this great battle.

Han Li didn't join in the excitement, he just watched from afar. He also saw Lan Ruochen, whom he had encountered in the Fire Phoenix Cave. It seemed that Lan Ruochen knew Qi Xingyu.

In the sky battlefield, Qi Xingyu and Guan Shan Yue engaged in an unparalleled duel. Both of them came from the lineage of Immortal Kings, and their cultivation techniques and martial skills were similar. They effortlessly displayed various powerful Immortal Grade Martial Skills, engaging in a fierce battle.

This battle determined victory or defeat, and even life and death.

To Han Li's surprise, countless cultivators were discussing Li Feiyu, who suddenly emerged while Qi Xingyu and Guan Shan Yue were still fiercely fighting in the Five Immortals City.

In the Virtual Immortal World, the highest cultivation base was only at the peak of the Heavenly Sovereign Realm. However, Li Feiyu had passed the hidden trial of the Fire Phoenix Cave and killed the Fire Phoenix Beast King with the strength of the Ninth Stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. His strength was at least at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Currently, the strongest war immortals in the Virtual Immortal World were only at the Seventh or Eighth Stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

The sudden appearance of an unparalleled genius with the strength of the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm directly shook the Virtual Immortal World, making it impossible for him to go unnoticed.

Countless discussions reached Han Li's ears, but he just smiled indifferently, ignoring them. He had no intention of stepping forward. Without invincible strength, he preferred to be low-key.

"Qi Xingyu is going to lose."

Han Li stood with his hands behind his back, making his judgment in his heart.

After observing for a while, he had already figured out the details of Qi Xingyu and Guan Shan Yue. Guan Shan Yue was slightly stronger, and her mastery of Immortal Grade Martial Skills was superior to Qi Xingyu's.

As expected, after a few moves, Guan Shan Yue unleashed her strongest Martial Skill, erupting with full power. Qi Xingyu barely blocked the first few strikes, but couldn't withstand the final strike and was about to be killed by Guan Shan Yue.

Guan Shan Yue's Martial Skill became stronger with each move. Each strike accumulated even greater power, which would be added to the next strike.

A trace of surprise flashed in Lan Ruochen's eyes. He didn't expect his good friend Qi Xingyu to actually lose. He flew out, intending to save Qi Xingyu.

The first city lord of the Five Immortals City frowned, preparing to stop Lan Ruochen. He wouldn't allow anyone to disrupt this duel.

But in the next instant, everyone's expressions changed, including the first city lord, Lan Ruochen, Guan Shan Yue, and Qi Xingyu. They all looked in astonishment at the sky, their bodies brimming with magic power as they attacked with all their might towards the sky.

They saw a giant palm shrouding the heavens, radiating the most dazzling immortal light, as if countless universes were converging and pressing down on the Five Immortals City.

"Boom~"

The sound of the explosion reverberated throughout the Virtual Immortal World. Countless powerful individuals turned their gazes over, their expressions filled with shock.

When the dazzling white light dissipated, the cultivators outside the Five Immortals City looked inside, their mouths wide open and their eyes almost falling out.

Countless powerful individuals in the Five Immortal City are all lying on the ground, unable to move. Even the first city lord, Guan Shan Yue, Qi Xingyu, and several other powerful battle immortals are now kneeling on one knee, their expressions shocked as they look up at the sky.

A single palm suppresses over a trillion second step cultivators, among them are tens of millions of Heavenly Sovereign Realm Great Emperors and dozens of battle immortals. Just how strong must the person who made a move be?

Who exactly is it?

As this thought arises, the name simultaneously appears in the minds of all cultivators.

Li Feiyu!

Only that Li Feiyu who suddenly appeared possesses such terrifying strength. With a single palm, he suppresses over a trillion second step cultivators, yet he didn't kill a single person.

"So terrifying~"

At this moment, Li Feiyu's might shakes the Void Immortal World. His reputation spreads throughout the entire Void Immortal World in a very short time, attracting the attention of countless sects.

Void Immortal World, Dao-Seeking Mountain.

This is one of the most famous Good Fortune lands in the Void Immortal World, and its hidden Good Fortune can be considered the greatest in the Void Immortal World.

After casually striking a palm in the Five Immortal City, Han Li quietly leaves, deliberately changing his appearance to avoid trouble.

Before coming to Dao-Seeking Mountain, Han Li had already visited several other Good Fortune lands in the Void Immortal World that are as famous as the Fire Phoenix Cave and Dao-Seeking Mountain. He also gave a punch to Yang Tianxi, who was in the Eastern Heaven Domain, blasting him out of the Void Immortal World.

Ignoring the attention and discussions of the surrounding cultivators, Han Li calmly flies into Dao-Seeking Mountain. Countless Immortal Dao runes burst forth, instantly concealing Han Li's figure.

Dangerous areas and Good Fortune lands in the Void Immortal World can undergo countless trials at the same time. Each trial is completely closed off, and only the challengers know what happens.

Standing at the foot of Dao-Seeking Mountain, Han Li looks towards it. From the foot to the summit, there are ten thousand jade steps, which is the content of the trial.

Dao-Seeking Mountain requires one to ask the Dao, testing the challenger's comprehension of the Great Dao. It can also temper one's will and even help with enlightenment.

The Good Fortune of Dao-Seeking Mountain is given based on how many steps one climbs. At least one thousand steps must be climbed to receive the basic reward.

Afterwards, for every additional five hundred steps climbed, the obtained Good Fortune will be greater. It is said that a cultivator who can reach the top of Dao-Seeking Mountain will obtain the greatest Good Fortune in the Void Immortal World.

It is rumored to be a heaven-defying Good Fortune that existed since the beginning of the Void Immortal World's creation. It has attracted countless cultivators' attention, and even many cultivators at the second step of the Thirty-Third Stage of Heaven have descended upon the Void Immortal World, all for the sake of obtaining that greatest Good Fortune.

However, up until now, in the thirty-six dynasties of the Heaven Court, not a single cultivator has been able to reach the summit of Dao-Seeking Mountain and take away that legendary greatest Good Fortune.

Countless cultivators feel that the trial of Dao-Seeking Mountain is too abnormal, and no cultivator can pass it at all.

But more cultivators believe that this is a good thing because the more difficult the trial of Dao-Seeking Mountain is, the more impossible it is for anyone to take away the Good Fortune. It will always be there, giving them and their future disciples a chance.

The reason why the greatest Good Fortune of Dao-Seeking Mountain is so attractive is not only because of various legendary halos but also because it is unique. Once someone takes it away, there will never be a second one.

Han Li glances at the mountaintop, then his gaze falls on the ancient jade stele in front of him. Countless golden characters are engraved on it, forming a ranking.

"First place, Yu Kunlun, a cultivator from the Yu Xu Heaven Court era, 9,877 steps."

"Second place, Zhan Wu Shuang, a cultivator from the Ming De Heaven Court era, 9,876 steps."

"Tenth place, Dao Wu Ya, a cultivator from the Wan Tong Heaven Court era, 9,632 steps."

"Ninety-eighth place, Meng Qing Yao, a cultivator from the Long Han Heaven Court era, 9,395 steps."

Han Li's gaze sweeps over, instantly absorbing all the names recorded on the ancient jade stele.

There aren't many rankings, only ten thousand, seemingly corresponding to the ten thousand steps. When a newcomer makes it onto the list, the last place will be replaced.

Han Li discovered that he didn't recognize any of the cultivators on the ancient monument ranking list.

The ranking list covers the Thirty-Six Dynasties of Heaven Court, and the years involved are too long. Most of the people on the list are probably dead.

Although becoming a Golden Immortal allows for eternal life, becoming an Immortal King allows for an undying physical body and an indestructible Primordial Spirit, there is still a risk of death when encountering stronger opponents.

An Immortal Emperor can peer into countless timelines of the past and future, travel through the river of time, and overlook the cycles of Samsara. As long as there is any trace left in the world, they can return again.

Even the powerful Immortal Emperor can still die, killed by an even stronger Immortal Emperor.

Therefore, Han Li has always believed in the philosophy of survival. If one does not have invincible strength, one should not act recklessly. If enmity cannot be resolved, then one should eliminate it completely and eradicate all Karma.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind as Han Li stood with his hands behind his back and began to climb Dao-Seeking Mountain.

Stepping onto the first step, a deafening question about the Dao resounded in his mind. This was a test of his cultivation and his understanding of the Dao.

Han Li's Primordial Spirit flashed, immediately answering this question without any difficulty.

Afterwards, Han Li continued to climb Dao-Seeking Mountain. It didn't take him much time to easily reach the ninth thousand level, his expression still calm.

If someone were to see him casually ascending the nine thousand levels of Dao-Seeking Mountain, it would surely cause a great sensation once again, shocking countless Heavenly Sovereign Realm Great Emperors and battle immortals.

Without delay, Han Li continued forward. When he reached the nine thousand five hundredth level, his expression became more serious, feeling some difficulty.

Nine thousand six hundredth level!

Nine thousand seven hundredth level!

Nine thousand nine hundredth level!

Up to this point, Han Li had already broken the record since the Thirty-Six Dynasties of Heaven Court, but he still did not stop.

However, the higher he went, the more difficult the questions from Dao-Seeking Mountain became. Even with Han Li's cultivation and comprehension of the ultimate Martial Dao, he felt that it was becoming more difficult to take each step.

Han Li did not give up. He had only one purpose in coming to Dao-Seeking Mountain, which was to obtain the greatest Good Fortune of the Virtual Immortal World.

If even he, a Heavenly Sovereign Realm Great Emperor who mastered the ultimate Martial Dao, could not reach the summit, then perhaps no one in the ancient, present, or future of the Primordial World would be able to.

On the last one hundred steps, with each step Han Li took, ten questions would resound in his mind. Each one was profound and obscure, and if it weren't for his cultivation in the ultimate Martial Dao, he wouldn't be able to answer them at all.

Unconsciously, Han Li reached the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-ninth level. He glanced at the summit but couldn't see anything, so he focused on dealing with the ninety-nine questions on this level.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but Han Li finally woke up. He had finally unraveled all the questions.

"Phew~"

Looking at the summit that was within reach, Han Li let out a long breath, and his exhausted body and mind returned to their peak state.

He took a step forward and reached the summit of Dao-Seeking Mountain!

In that instant, Dao-Seeking Mountain erupted with the most brilliant immortal light, shaking the entire Virtual Immortal World and even causing a huge anomaly in the Primordial World.

After understanding the situation, Han Li took the greatest Good Fortune bestowed by the Virtual Immortal World and then left, leaving the Virtual Immortal World.

Han Li quickly returned to the Yuan Kun Domain, the Holy Mountain, unaware that the entire Primordial World was in turmoil because of him.

Countless top Dao lineages and countless powerful individuals were searching for Han Li, while others were busy covering up for him.
