After chatting with the Demon Frog for a while, Li Qingshan gained a deeper understanding of the Supreme Path.
At the same time, he pondered how he could break through to the completion stage of the Venerable Realm.
For Li Qingshan at this point, the room for improvement in this universe wasn’t very significant.
Climbing from the Ninth Heaven of the Venerable Realm to the completion stage of the Venerable Realm seemed like just one step away, but for him, it was like crossing a world.
This world was vast, and for him to take that step required a long time.
“However, now that the Immortal Plane is no longer in danger and the dam of the Fourth World has been dealt with, the origin energy lost in the Immortal Plane will gradually be replenished, reaching completion. In the future, breakthroughs won’t be difficult, and becoming an Emperor won’t be an issue. I can also live in seclusion and peacefully wait for the Supreme Path to descend,” Li Qingshan thought to himself, feeling at ease. He was now calm and unhurried.
He had plenty of time to reach the completion stage of the Venerable Realm.
He also wanted to understand the mysteries of the Venerable Realm more deeply since he had leaped from the Emperor to the Venerable Realm in one go, surpassing the Nine Heavens.
This was equivalent to advancing one level at a time in a single life.
There was still much to be savored and understood in this.
Under the bamboo grove, the breeze rustled the bamboo leaves, creating a soothing sound.
As the bamboo swayed, the light and shadows cast a lazy feeling. Li Qingshan sat in a chair, looking at the steaming tea cup, and closed his eyes contentedly, emptying his mind.
In the past, he had been too tired.
In the extended time, tens of millions of years had passed silently, and he had been striving without rest.
Until now, this effort, accompanied by the collapse of the Fourth World, had finally ended.
He could rest in peace.
Gradually, Li Qingshan fell into a deep sleep.
This was very rare.
Since breaking through to the Emperor Realm, he had never slept.
Not to mention falling asleep so naturally and relaxedly.
The Demon Frog had long disappeared, wandering in the Emperor Space, sighing at the sight of the various divine medicines planted by Li Qingshan. None of them had matured yet, making him drool with envy but helpless.
It was unclear how long he slept, but the sound of female laughter woke him. Li Qingshan opened his eyes to see Hua Yun and Hua Xiangrong walking towards him from afar.
The two sisters, hand in hand, were each beautiful and celestial, bringing a joyful smile as they came to see Li Qingshan.
After catching up with each other and ensuring they were both doing well, the sisters came to see Li Qingshan.
“Brother-in-law, we saw you sleeping from afar. Are you very tired?” Hua Xiangrong asked with concern.
Li Qingshan invited them to sit down and smiled, “Not very tired, just fell asleep without realizing it while alone.”
Hua Yun looked at Li Qingshan with concern.
Hua Xiangrong teased, “Brother-in-law, you and my sister have finally reunited.”
Li Qingshan glanced at Hua Yun, smiling and nodding, “Yes, finally reunited. It’s been a long time.”
Hua Yun rolled her eyes at Li Qingshan and said, “It’s only been a few decades.”
Li Qingshan smiled without responding. The few decades she mentioned were tens of millions of years for him.
“Brother-in-law, now that my sister is back, what are your plans?” Hua Xiangrong asked, winking at Li Qingshan.
Hua Yun glared at Hua Xiangrong, scolding her for asking this.
After thinking for a moment, Li Qingshan said, “Next, I want to live in seclusion with your sister!”
“Live in seclusion?” Hua Yun and Hua Xiangrong looked at Li Qingshan in surprise.
“Brother-in-law, you want to live in seclusion?” Hua Xiangrong confirmed again.
“Yes, the issues that needed resolving have been dealt with. The conflicts of the world have nothing to do with us anymore. The Celestial Court is also on track and doesn’t need our worry. Retiring to the mountains and rivers, enjoying the scenery with your sister, isn’t that wonderful?” Li Qingshan nodded.
“Then you’ll hand over the Celestial Court you established to someone else?” Hua Xiangrong asked.
“The Celestial Court is still the Celestial Court. Why should I take it for myself?” Li Qingshan replied.
Hua Xiangrong opened her red lips but had nothing to say.
Hua Yun sat beside Li Qingshan and said softly, “Living in seclusion is good. I also want to live a quiet life away from the world, living peacefully in the days to come.”
Li Qingshan took Hua Yun’s delicate hand, feeling her warmth. He gently clasped her fingers, saying, “Before the Supreme Path descends, we can enjoy a period of calm days.”
Hua Yun smiled sweetly, looking at Li Qingshan with affection, and nodded. She had always been the most delicate flower among the hundred flowers, preferring simplicity and tranquility.
“Then take me with you when you live in seclusion,” Hua Xiangrong said, seeing Li Qingshan and Hua Yun so affectionate, feeling very envious.
“Sure, as long as you want to, no problem,” Hua Yun immediately nodded.
“I’ll find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, birds singing and flowers fragrant, and build a village. By then, you, Little Nine, Little Fox, A’wei, and the Five Ghosts can live there if you want. We’ll live a simple life, and your sister and I can guide your cultivation,” Li Qingshan envisioned.
A village with friends and loved ones, watching the sunset and sunrise, working at dawn, and resting at dusk.
When in the mood, singing and dancing under the moonlight, enjoying fine wine and good company. When not, fishing alone in the mountains, watching the clouds rise and fall, savoring a cup of good tea, free from worldly disputes.
Just thinking about it made Li Qingshan feel wonderful.
“Brother-in-law, the Emperor Space has rich energy and many Great Paths. Don’t you want to live in seclusion here?” Hua Xiangrong asked.
“No need. With two Venerable experts guiding you, your progress will be faster than in the Emperor Space,” Li Qingshan shook his head.
“Then I’ll tell Little Nine and Little Fox about this,” Hua Xiangrong immediately got up to find her companions.
Li Qingshan and Hua Yun watched her leave, exchanging a smile.
“She trusts you, her brother-in-law, a lot,” Hua Yun teased Li Qingshan.
“That’s because of her sister.” Li Qingshan smiled, reaching out to hold Hua Yun in his arms, letting her sit on his lap.
Hua Yun blushed slightly, leaning against Li Qingshan, inhaling his calm and serene scent, and becoming deeply intoxicated. Their eyes met, and they couldn’t help but kiss.
In the bamboo grove, a pair of perfect lovers embraced and fell asleep together.
Li Qingshan soon put his decision to seclude himself into action.
He left the Emperor Space, found Taoist Dragon, Dean Mu Ran, and Patriarch Zhang, informed them of his decision, entrusted them with the Celestial Court, and left with a smile, without any hesitation.
After that, he found a place full of birds and flowers in the Immortal Plane.
This place was in the Western Lands!
The Western Lands were vast, with beautiful mountains and rivers, and breathtaking scenery. It was a place closest to the sky, with hidden beauty that the world couldn’t reach.
Li Qingshan chose a spot here and built a village.
Soon, Little Nine and the others came.
For them, the Celestial Court without Li Qingshan held no meaning.
Learning from Li Qingshan was something they would follow him anywhere for.
Little Fox was even more unwilling to leave Li Qingshan.
Even with Hua Yun present, she wouldn’t give up. If she couldn’t be the main wife, she didn’t mind being a concubine.
At the same time, the Demon Frog also came.
After wandering around the Celestial Court and even the Immortal Plane, the Demon Frog ultimately decided to follow Li Qingshan to the Western Lands.
He also wanted to learn and understand more rules by staying with Li Qingshan.
After the Demon Frog arrived, Xia Wuji and Immortal Northstar also came.
With the Fourth World War over, the top experts chose to live in seclusion, waiting for the Supreme Path, just like Li Qingshan.
Xia Wuji and Immortal Northstar had once been on the Dimensional Battlefield and had also lived in seclusion with Li Qingshan. Now, they were naturally willing to be together.
Thus, Li Qingshan’s little village became lively.
In the Western Lands, in a picturesque hidden village, several Venerables and Emperors lived. If this were told to anyone, they wouldn’t believe it.
But they were indeed there, watching the clouds rise and fall, seeing the flowers bloom and wither, observing the changes in the world with calm detachment.
Every day, they were happy and carefree, gathering when they had time and attending to their own matters when they were busy.
When they got bored of staying in the village, they would wander around the Western Lands, visiting the holy lakes, the snowy mountains, and the grasslands to broaden their minds.
Time flowed by little by little.
Amidst the laughter and joy, the world changed its appearance, and the ancient Fourth World War was buried in the dust. In a trance, a small village in the Western Lands peacefully passed through a millennium.
A thousand years might be just a retreat for cultivators.
But for the Immortal Plane and its new generation of cultivators, several generations had already passed.
Thus, in the current world, the situation is ever-changing, and the young have forgotten the events of the past. Only some elders remembered the Starry Sky War.
In these thousand years, Li Qingshan and Hua Yun held a simple ceremony, witnessed by everyone, and became husband and wife.
This was a natural progression.
Unfortunately, Hua Yun’s true form was still on the Supreme Path, so she could not conceive. Thus, Li Qingshan and she did not have any children.
In the 300th year after their marriage, Hua Yun decided to bring the little fox into their home.
The little fox was very grateful, calling Hua Yun “sister” affectionately.
For Li Qingshan, life was simple: drinking tea, chatting, fishing, and occasionally enjoying the scenery of the Western Lands, deepening his understanding and cultivating himself to comprehend the Venerable realm.
In these thousand years, he did not break through to the Venerable completion, but he had accumulated quite a lot.
Everyone was very happy. Little Nine and the others, under the guidance of Li Qingshan and with the return of the origin energy, had broken through to the Emperor level. In the Immortal Plane, they had the ability to protect themselves.
Li Qingshan felt relieved, knowing that when they later entered the Supreme Path, they would have the ability to protect themselves in the Immortal Plane.
A’wei, Little Nine, the little fox, and the five ghosts all reached the Emperor level. They helped each other and were definitely not in any danger.
Indeed, Li Qingshan did not plan to take them into the Supreme Path, as it was very dangerous. He intended to bring them up after establishing stability in the Six Equal Universes.
These calm days were very comfortable, but there was one thing that troubled Li Qingshan, Immortal Northstar, Xia Wuji, and Little Nine.
The Heavenly Emperor had disappeared without a trace!
