Unrivaled Comprehension: From Mortal to Immortal King

The Sect Master's secret vault is located within the Scripture Pavilion, but it is a separate world that requires a key to open, otherwise, no one can enter.

Cui Jiufeng, who had managed the Scripture Pavilion for a hundred years, never knew of its existence. If it weren't for Bai Yunfei mentioning it, he never would have thought there was a hidden small world inside the Scripture Pavilion.

This small world is not located elsewhere; the entrance is on the highest floor of the Scripture Pavilion. Holding the Crescent Moon Jade Pendant, Cui Jiufeng walked to the spot and noticed the jade pendant glowing, becoming warm, and gently trembling, guiding the direction.

Cui Jiufeng slowly adjusted his direction and pinpointed the location of the hidden small world. Once he was sure, the Crescent Moon Jade Pendant quieted down but continued to emit light.

Cui Jiufeng held the jade pendant in his palm and lightly touched the space in front of him. The empty space before him rippled, as if a stone had been thrown into calm water.

Cui Jiufeng's palm passed through this space. With the jade pendant, he was unharmed.

After confirming that this was the entrance to the hidden small world, Cui Jiufeng walked in, and his entire body disappeared from the highest floor of the Scripture Pavilion.

A bright white light covered his vision, and for a moment, he couldn't see anything. After a brief pause, his vision cleared, and he saw the scene before him.

The highest floor of the Scripture Pavilion led to a bamboo forest in the small world. After walking about 120 steps westward, he could hear the sound of flowing water. Continuing along the path, he came across a lake, reflecting the sky under the glow of the evening sun, with the flames of sunset clouds, a breathtaking sight.

The lake was vast, stretching far in the distance, with blue mountains like ink and trees standing tall, their green and powerful trunks evident.

Closer to him, in the middle of the lake, there was an island, with a large stone on it. A turtle lay lazily on the stone, basking in the sun.

On the shore nearby, there were numerous towering mountains, countless in number, each with a cave carved into it.

Curious about what was inside these caves, Cui Jiufeng walked over to investigate.

Entering the cave closest to him, he was greeted by rows of neatly arranged bookshelves.

"This must be the place the successive Sect Masters of the Yuhua Sect created, where books that couldn't be recorded in the Scripture Pavilion are kept for the Sect Masters to view," Cui Jiufeng speculated silently.

He casually picked up a book from the shelf and began flipping through it.

"Complete Ancient and Incomplete Formation Techniques"

"To be labeled as 'Ancient Formation Techniques,' these must be earth-shattering. Though incomplete, they are indeed not suitable for inclusion in the Scripture Pavilion," Cui Jiufeng remarked seriously.

The books in the Scripture Pavilion were available for all Yuhua Sect disciples to borrow, so most of them were quite ordinary, containing basic knowledge of the cultivation world.

More advanced knowledge, such as this book on ancient formations, was stored in this hidden small world.

After flipping through a few pages, Cui Jiufeng found it extremely complex. The formation patterns, the links between formations, and the array symbols intertwined like an astronomical web. Without patience and meticulous study, it was impossible to understand.

So, Cui Jiufeng quickly put it down and picked up another book.

"Key Insights on Cultivating from the Seventh to the Ninth Realm"

This book was written by the founder of the Yuhua Sect, specifically detailing the cultivation principles from the Seventh to the Ninth Realm. It was explained in great detail, and Cui Jiufeng was immediately drawn to it after flipping through a few pages.

He didn't look at any other books but took this one and walked to the lakeside, sitting on the grass under the warm sun, carefully reading it.

The founder of Yuhua Sect had been a supreme expert in the cultivation world, and it was said that he had broken through the Ninth Realm and entered the legendary Tenth Realm. Therefore, Cui Jiufeng had high expectations for the cultivation insights written in the book.

"I've already entered the Sixth Realm, and the next step is to break through the Seventh Realm. This is just the right time to study these insights," Cui Jiufeng thought eagerly as he read.

Seventh Realm: Spirit Platform Immortal Vault

Unlike the previous realms, this realm is about opening the immortal vault of the primordial spirit world.

The book said that everyone's primordial spirit is an inexhaustible treasure vault.

The cultivation of the Seventh Realm is about unearthing the treasures within the spirit platform's primordial spirit, hence the term "Spirit Platform Immortal Vault."

"How does one unearth it?" Cui Jiufeng asked seriously, continuing to read.

The founder had written very detailed instructions.

Different people unearthed different things. Some unearthed innate holy bodies, others unearthed vast primordial spirit power, while some could only unearth several times the amount of magical power.

"It varies from person to person," Cui Jiufeng noted.

"But how do I unearth it?" Cui Jiufeng continued reading, still puzzled.

To unearth the treasures of the primordial spirit, one must first understand the root of the primordial spirit, perceive its essence, and only then can one begin digging for treasures.

Some cultivators may have formed their primordial spirits and understood the Dao rhythm but still did not understand their primordial spirit, preventing them from unearthing treasures.

Thus, to break through the Seventh Realm, the first step is to understand one's primordial spirit.

"Only by comprehending the essence of my primordial spirit can I begin digging for my treasures," Cui Jiufeng realized as he reviewed the book.

He then took a closer look at his own primordial spirit and realized that he had never truly understood it.

"If I want to break through the Seventh Realm, I need to understand my primordial spirit better. But how do I do that?" Cui Jiufeng wondered as he continued reading.

The founder had left a method to solve this problem.

Emptying one's mind and treating the body and primordial spirit as separate entities, face-to-face, in order to comprehend the Dao.

Cui Jiufeng pondered deeply, but still couldn't figure out how to clear his mind.

Human thoughts are constantly influenced by the outside world, producing many different ideas. To truly empty the mind, one needs to isolate oneself from the outside world.

With this thought, Cui Jiufeng looked around the empty small world and wondered if this was enough isolation from the world.

But even though he was in this small world, he still couldn't clear his mind.

Suddenly, Cui Jiufeng looked at the clear, transparent lake in front of him. He put down the book and jumped into it.

Splash.

Cui Jiufeng didn't try to float on the surface but let himself sink directly to the bottom.

At the bottom of the lake, fish and shrimp swam freely, water plants swayed, and the silt settled. He lay there, looking through the clear water, seeing a magnificent starry sky.

Brilliant, vast, mysterious, beautiful…

It was like the Milky Way rolling out before Cui Jiufeng's eyes.

Gradually, he became entranced, and his whole being fell into a state of enlightenment.

In his sea of consciousness, a vast river of stars appeared, surrounding his primordial spirit.

At that moment, Cui Jiufeng truly understood his primordial spirit.

Surrounded by the galaxy, his primordial spirit shone brightly, like an ancient star god, radiating brilliance and communicating with Cui Jiufeng's mind, linking to infinity.

Boom!

At that moment, all the stars in the sky shot down boundless light from the distant void, passing through the lake, and entering Cui Jiufeng's brow, entering the Dantian Palace, where they were absorbed by his primordial spirit.

The starlight entered his mind, and Cui Jiufeng felt an indescribable sense of coolness, like his primordial spirit was bathed in a spring breeze. His pores were breathing in spiritual energy, and he felt as though he were floating in the air, immortal.

Before his eyes, a line of text appeared.

"You have comprehended your primordial spirit, activating your incredible wisdom and gaining the insight 'The Bright Moon Rises Over the Sea.'"
