From Family Fisherman to Water Virtue True Immortal-Chapter 238 - 233: Passing Away in Meditation

"Ancient Array Dao?"

Li Quanqing and the others were momentarily startled hearing Li Quanshu’s words, their eyes revealing a color of surprise.

Any item from the Cultivation World, whether it’s a lineage or a magic artifact, as long as it is associated with the word ’ancient,’ represents mystery and power.

Rumor has it that in this endlessly ancient era, the Human World was once extraordinarily prosperous, and even immortal tales described Immortals descending to the mortal realm.

Unlike now, where the entire Cultivation World is nearly in decline, Divinity Transformation Venerables are hard to find in the human realm, and even the East Sea has been forcibly occupied by the Demon Clan.

Li Quanyi did not hide anything but instead smoothed her hair that hung beside her ear and took out an Array Plate.

The Array Plate seemed to be made of bronze, with carvings of a thousand swords on its surface, combining to form a slowly blooming lotus, exuding an indescribably ancient aura.

"This is an ancient object I acquired at an auction in Green Jade Square when I was young, called the Thousand Lotus Sword Formation."

"Unexpectedly, when I infused it with mana, it actually awakened the residual Array Spirit within the Array Plate, which claimed to be a relic from an ancient sect known for its arrays."

"Under the guidance of the Thousand Lotus Array Spirit, I was able to cultivate so rapidly, even successfully refining the array into my body and using the Array Dao Foundation Establishment technique to make a breakthrough."

Li Quanyi recounted her experiences in great detail, showing her absolute trust in her family and not concealing anything.

"Thousand Lotus Sword Formation..."

Li Quanqing stroked his chin, with a cultivator’s memory, and naturally recalled this treasure that he had seen at Baoying Fang.

It was his first time leaving the family to participate in a major auction, where he obtained the Longevity Turtle’s turtle egg.

He hadn’t expected that Li Quanyi’s fortune would be even greater than his, possessing such an opportunity.

"This... Array Spirit predecessor, can it hear our conversation right now?"

Li Zongyao was full of wariness, as he was always untrusting of such ancient items, imagining the worst.

"The senior Thousand Lotus mostly slumbers, and furthermore, since my Foundation Establishment, I’ve sealed it with Divine Sense and mana, ensuring it is safe."

Li Quanshu nodded slightly: "Moreover, senior Thousand Lotus once told me that it is uninterested in the cultivators of the Li Family, finding none of them worthy of attention, all incompetent in the Array Dao."

"Cough! This Array Spirit predecessor, it seems, doesn’t have a very pleasant personality."

Hearing this, even Li Zongzhuo couldn’t help but cough and blush slightly.

Perhaps in the eyes of this Ancient Array Spirit, the array cultivation they prided themselves on was nothing more than child’s play.

Li Quanyi took out a blank Jade Scroll and recorded the method of refining the Array Tao Jade Disc, passing it for everyone to examine.

Li Quanqing also observed it with Divine Sense, verifying that it was indeed a high-level Array Dao Magical Artifact. It also had the potential for advancement and could even be used as a carrier for the Three Thousand Tao.

"Let’s use this."

In the end, it was the Elder Li Zongzhuo who made the final decision, choosing the Jade Dishware as the vessel for his future reincarnation.

You should know that cultivators of the Incense Fire Divine Tao, who reside in artifacts, find it extremely difficult to change; hence, choosing a Magical Treasure essentially sets one’s foundation and must be made with great care.

"Quanqing, will you be able to refine this Array Disk without any issues?"

Li Zongyao also inquired, looking even more eager than the main party concerned.

Li Quanqing caressed the Jade Scroll, pondering for a moment: "Shouldn’t be a problem. When the time comes, Elder Li Kunli and I will study it together, and we should have no issue refining a Magical Treasure Embryo."

"Good, good!"

Hearing this, both elders couldn’t help but smile, a weight lifted from their shoulders.

In the days that followed, Li Quanqing devoted all his attention to studying this Jade Scroll, even enlisting Li Kunli to consult together.

Two second-rank Artifact Masters from the Li Family joined forces and finally thoroughly studied this Ancient Magical Artifact, mastering the possibility of successful refinement.

Even, they specifically lectured for several days and nights in the Artifact Refining Hall, to teach the clan’s Artifact Refiners.

It was precisely after experiencing this lecture that Li Quanqing completely overcame all the difficulties and truly mastered this Array Tao Jade Disc.

Three months later, the earth fire roared and blazed, illuminating the entire secret chamber.

Li Quanqing stepped on the flames, holding a jade-colored disc in his hands, truly refined successfully, with its surface etched with intricate and profound patterns, like manifestations of Dao Traces.

He came again to the depths of the Scripture Pavilion; Elder Li Zongzhuo had aged even more, appearing almost like a hunchbacked dwarf, white-haired and his Essence Qi nearly exhausted.

"Master, after all, this will be the vessel for your Dao in the future, please give it a name."

Li Quanyi softly spoke, sitting cross-legged beside the old man, nourishing him with her own life’s Essence Qi to slow down his aging.

"How about calling it Creation Jade Disc?"

Said Li Quanqing, holding the Magical Artifact high, its jade quality smooth and flawless, seemingly emitting a bright luminous glow.

"Creation, these two words carry too much cause and effect, let’s keep the name simpler... Just call it Green Jade Plate."

Evidently, Elder Li Zongzhuo seemed to be poor at naming, not taking a moment to think before directly stating this name.

The old man’s gaze stretched afar, taking in the whole scenery of Qingyu Cave Heaven, with thousands of homes lit up, brimming with vitality.

He was about to accompany his beloved family, where he was born and raised, cultivated for a lifetime, and eventually faded away, in a brand new form of life.

Until the incense burns out, and no one in the world remembers his name anymore.

"Let’s begin."

Elder Li Zongzhuo spoke softly, his hands holding the Golden Toad Statue, having thoroughly pondered over the legacy of the Incense Fire Divine Tao.

In fact, he still had several months of lifespan left, but he was already too eager to start a brand new life.

In the privacy of the Scripture Pavilion, unknown to others, the old man began his life transition ritual.

Discarding the physical body, the True Spirit enters the artifact, feeding on incense, sealing divinity in the human realm.

A sacrificial altar stood within the Scripture Pavilion, ancient and grand, with three levels, colored in multitudes, entirely in the style of Divine Dao worship.

"The Power of Incense..."

Around the altar, densely packed memorial tablets were arranged; these were the ancestors who had passed away in meditation over a thousand years, and the entire clan would hold grand sacrifices every few years.

In the lineage system of the Cultivators in this realm, there was no concept of incense, and Divine Sense could hardly probe it.

Therefore, Li Quanqing and the others could only move these tablets here, after all, if there were any place full of a great amount of incense, it would definitely be these objects in the ancestral shrine.

"Please, ancestors, assist me!"

Elder Li Zongzhuo first bowed deeply, propping himself up, paying great respects to these tablets.

Then, step by step, he climbed the stairs to the very top of the altar, where he sat down cross-legged, holding the Golden Toad, and silently began his transformation into the Divine Dao System.

It must succeed!

Li Quanqing watched nervously, and Li Quanshu beside him did the same, their gaze intently fixed, fearing any mistakes.

Time passed by, and eventually, the night grew deep, the lights extinguished, reaching the moment of the day when the yin energy was at its peak.

Hum!!

Elder Li Zongzhuo’s body trembled lightly, as if his soul was leaving the body, an invisible soul emerged from the crown of his head, and the air twisted slightly.

It was also at this moment, that the ancestral tablets scattered around the altar suddenly all bloomed with streams of faint golden light.
