Chapter 628: Chapter 628 The End of the Immortal Path_1
 

Qin Changqing, bringing so many people with him in ascending, would have a great demand for Immortal Stones upon reaching the Immortal World.

Many of his consorts and descendants were geniuses, and their future need for Immortal Stones would be equally substantial.

Thus, he took advantage of this ascension to thoroughly fleece the Immortal Path.

Other Nine Transformations Scattered Immortals couldn’t fleece like Qin Changqing did.

Because in these seven days, most of the other Nine Transformations Scattered Immortals needed to spend their time completing their own transformations.

And, most crucially, they had to absorb the Origin of the Immortal Realm.

Otherwise, they might not be able to reach Golden Immortal status.

But for Qin Changqing, it was easy.

He didn’t need to worry at all.

Therefore, in the seven days’ time, Qin Changqing could collect who knows how many Immortal Stones.

This benefit was only available once.

The Immortal Path could only be entered once in a lifetime.

Even if one descended to the lower realm with a Realm Order or returned to the Immortal World, or even “smuggled” one’s way in, there was no way to enter again.

Of course, if Qin Changqing became powerful enough, such as becoming an existence above even an Immortal Master,

Powerful enough to participate in the definitions of the entire Immortal World’s rules,

And even more powerful, to the extent that he could decide the Heavenly and Earthly Rules of the entire Immortal World,

With his words following the law,

I am Heaven itself,

Then Qin Changqing would probably be able to forcibly open the Immortal Path, or enter it.

It’s just…

At that level of power, the Immortal Stones within the Immortal Path would have little significance for Qin Changqing.

Would it mean anything for someone who is 80 to visit a place they longed to see at the age of 20?

The situation isn’t the same, but the principle is similar.

It’s only meaningful now.

Now, by acquiring these Immortal Stones, Qin Changqing could grow better and faster.

He himself didn’t need them.

But his women and descendants did, and Immortal Stones were needed to purchase rare items in the Immortal World.

Thus, Qin Changqing followed one principle: search!

Wherever he went, he plundered.

Continually, Immortal Stones were being gathered by Qin Changqing.

The Immortal Path was indeed extremely broad, spanning tens of thousands of miles, but with the Divine Sense of a Nine Transformations Scattered Immortal like Qin Changqing, he could detect it completely.

He controlled his speed, neither fast nor slow.

That ensured the greatest yield.

Anyway, anything that he passed by, no matter what it was, was collected.

In the Immortal Path, there was nothing harmful to worry about.

As time continued to pass,

Qin Changqing was frantically gathering Immortal Stones within the Immortal Path.

Meanwhile,

within Xuanyuan Immortal City of the Immortal World, Tao Yao had already brought several of Qin Changqing’s daughters and women to the side of the Ascension Pool to wait.

The Ascension Pool, being a pool, was naturally exceptionally large.

In terms of Immortal distances, this Ascension Pool was even larger than many of the lakes Qin Changqing had known before his traversal.

Around the Ascension Pool were still crowded with cultivators from the Immortal World.

Over the years, the continuous ascension of members of the Qin family to the Immortal Pool was quite a sight for these cultivators.

Many of these cultivators themselves were at bottlenecks, unable to advance further, and they all gathered here, looking on excitedly.

This was actually beneficial.

Because when an Immortal ascended, bursting out from the Ascension Pool, they could induce changes in heaven and earth, possibly allowing a cultivator to gain some enlightenment.

“Look, they’ve come again, it looks like more people from the Blue Realm will soon ascend.”

“That’s right, every time they appear, new people ascend.”

“Have you noticed? Xuanyuan Immortal City is becoming increasingly lively, with many Immortals arriving. Could they all be here for Qin Changqing?”

“Of course, a Nine Transformations Scattered Immortal, once he becomes an Immortal, will be a Golden Immortal. Imagine how many powers want to court him.”

“People from the Xiashou Star have arrived, too.”

By the Ascension Pool, numerous cultivators were engaged in fervent discussions.

In this manner, several days quickly passed by.

Within the path to immortality, Qin Changqing was still tirelessly collecting treasures, leaving every place he passed devoid of anything.

In preparation for this day, he had refined numerous Space Rings during his ascent.

Since he didn’t deliberately keep track, he didn’t know exactly how much he had collected.

But it was definitely more than one could imagine.

For everywhere Qin Changqing went, he left nothing unclaimed.

The entire path to immortality had been thoroughly plundered by Qin Changqing!

The ones ascending after him wouldn’t miss out on anything, for once the path closed, it would naturally regenerate and replenish.

Of course, in the short term, there would certainly be an impact.

But since those who would ascend later were Qin Changqing’s descendants, this impact was no longer of any concern.

“Wow, father is so amazing!”

Above the clouds, Qin Changqing’s daughters, eyes glinting with stars, watched as he confiscated everything he encountered.

Now, more than six days had passed.

On the path of immortality, nearly everything visible had been stripped clean by Qin Changqing.

As for Qin Changqing himself, he seemed to be the center of the radiant light.

Boundless light converged towards him.

It made Qin Changqing appear as if surrounded by three thousand halos, exceptionally majestic and dazzling.

“No wonder Tao Yao said that Building the Taoist Formation is perilous,” thought Qin Changqing.

The danger in Building the Taoist Formation primarily lies in the risk of one’s body being assimilated by the Great Dao during the process.

It must be known that the Dao Qin Changqing was in contact with was not the lesser Dao that those of the Golden Elixir Nascent Soul experienced.

It was the Great Dao.

Among the Three Thousand Great Dao, gaining insight into just one could establish one at the pinnacle, surpassing both the Immortal King and the Immortal Master.

Even without delving deeply, the process of Building the Taoist Formation was exceedingly dangerous.

The slightest incaution could lead to assimilation by it.

Even Golden Immortals who comprehend the Dao face such risks, let alone Qin Changqing.

Fortunately, the System resolved everything.

Another aspect was time.

Seven days is too short; for other Nine Transformations Scattered Immortals, the likelihood of constructing their Tao foundation within seven days is very slim.

If unsuccessful, they’re doomed.

The biggest impact is that after achieving Golden Immortality, the chances of attaining Great Luo are reduced, and one might be forced to settle for Taiyi.

Nine Transformations to Immortality, having gone through countless trials, aims for Great Luo and beyond.

Who would willingly settle for becoming a Taiyi Immortal King?

Although in countless Immortals’ eyes, a Taiyi Immortal King is also incredibly powerful.

Countless Immortals dream of becoming a king, waking up smiling from such dreams.

However, a Nine Tribulation Scattered Immortal naturally takes a path against heaven.

Nobody is willing to settle for that.

At this moment, the refinement of Qin Changqing’s Immortal Element within had been completed.

Given the robustness of his Immortal Element, though its quantity seemed to have diminished by thousands of times after refinement, its quality had increased beyond measure.

Now, all he awaited was to enter the Ascension Pool for the final baptism to become a Golden Immortal in one fell swoop.

As for the Tao foundation, it was still being constructed.

In this manner, another day went by.

At this time, after scouring for seven days, Qin Changqing had finally arrived at the end of the path to immortality.

The entire path had been pillaged clean by him.

If the next to ascend were not his descendant but another cultivator at the Mahayana Stage, the latter would probably be stupefied.

Perhaps they would even believe that aside from refinement and transformation, the path held no other benefits.

Half a day remained.

Qin Changqing did not rush out of the path to immortality.

He still had time.
