The life of the Qinling Emperor, Li Qingshan had seen him once before, though he hadn’t witnessed how he became an emperor. However, Li Qingshan generally knew about his life.

This time, Li Qingshan saw clearly how he had achieved his breakthrough.

The Emperor Scripture of Nature enveloped Li Qingshan’s primordial spirit, placing him within the realm of nature.

Li Qingshan saw the Qinling Emperor, whom he had been separated from for a long time.

He remained young, strong, and extraordinary as ever.

Li Qingshan observed how the Qinling Emperor broke through the ranks of the Immortal Kings to become an Emperor, a process that appeared remarkably simple.

In the eyes of the Qinling Emperor, nature equaled the heavens and the earth. Whether it was the Great Path or Rules, they were all treated equally by him.

He merged with the heavens and the earth, becoming one with nature, in harmony with the sun and the moon. From the morning’s qi cultivation to the evening’s dance with the sunset, everything in the world was part of his nature.

Therefore, the Qinling Emperor was able to attain such immense power.

As Li Qingshan watched, he earnestly learned until he was eventually expelled by the Emperor Scripture of Nature. It was only then that Li Qingshan had a sudden realization.

“This time, it’s been over twenty thousand years,” Li Qingshan murmured softly. He stretched his body after a long period of seclusion, feeling stiff from the passage of time. Immortal energy flowed through his body, making him comfortable.

In total, he had spent seventy thousand years in seclusion.

One day outside equaled a thousand years in the courtyard, so seventy days had passed.

For Li Qingshan, he had never been in seclusion for such a long time, but now he had much better control over himself. Without changing his mindset, he remained steadfast in his original intentions.

During these seventy thousand years, Li Qingshan hadn’t gained much in terms of cultivation. In fact, he had already reached a level beneath that of an Emperor and couldn’t progress further.

EUsing seventy thousand years, he observed the breakthrough processes of seven emperors, addressing his own shortcomings and perfectly compensating for his lack of foundation.

After seventy thousand years, Li Qingshan pushed open the door of the courtyard.

Creak!

The courtyard door opened, and the warm sunlight shone down, reflecting on Li Qingshan’s face, causing him to squint as he walked out.

“The first ray of sunlight in seventy thousand years,” Li Qingshan said with emotion.

Meow!

The little fox noticed Li Qingshan and leaped onto him, mimicking a cat’s meow. It snuggled against him, rubbing against him with force.

“Congratulations on coming out of seclusion,” the little fox said happily, its white fur bristling with excitement as it wagged its tail in Li Qingshan’s arms, sniffing his scent and closing its eyes comfortably.

Li Qingshan hugged the little fox gently and asked, “Did you guard me for seventy days?”

“Of course, I couldn’t let anyone disturb you,” the little fox nodded, extending its tongue to lick Li Qingshan’s palm, speaking obediently.

“Have you been practicing well?” Li Qingshan asked with a slight smile.

“I’ve already become an Earthly Immortal, don’t underestimate me,” little fox said proudly.

“Good, my little fox has worked hard,” Li Qingshan said, satisfied, as he rubbed the little fox’s head.

“I informed Little Nine and the others to come over. They’ve missed you too and have been coming to see you every other day,” the little fox said.

“Okay, and also ask A’wei to bring the five ghosts over. I’ll check their cultivation levels and give them some guidance,” Li Qingshan said.

“Okay,” the little fox nodded, immediately using divine techniques to inform them to come over.

Meanwhile, Li Qingshan held the little fox as he arrived at the edge of the cloud sea, watching the roiling clouds, feeling a sense of being in another world.

“How long were you in seclusion this time?” the little fox asked curiously.

“Seventy thousand years,” Li Qingshan replied.

“Seventy thousand years…” the little fox covered its mouth in surprise, looking at Li Qingshan with pity. “How could you endure seventy thousand years of loneliness?”

“By befriending loneliness, one can endure it,” Li Qingshan said calmly.

“Are you going to continue with your seclusion?” the little fox asked, concerned.

“No, I’m not going into seclusion anymore. I’m going to live a secluded life for a while,” Li Qingshan shook his head.

He had already comprehended the breakthrough experiences of seven emperors. Further seclusion would only waste time.

Having addressed his shortcomings, Li Qingshan now needed to quietly await the moment of enlightenment. When it arrived, he could attempt a breakthrough.

If it didn’t come, he would continue waiting.

Li Qingshan wasn’t in a hurry. He had plenty of time and patience.

Upon hearing that Li Qingshan wasn’t going into seclusion, the little fox felt secretly delighted. If Li Qingshan didn’t go into seclusion, she could stick to him every day.

Just as the little fox was feeling delighted, Little Nine, Hua Xiangrong, A’wei, and the five ghosts all arrived.

Gathering here, they were all overjoyed to see Li Qingshan. Unconsciously, Li Qingshan had become the backbone of the group. Just seeing him would calm everyone’s hearts. Even if they encountered a great storm, they could face it confidently because Li Qingshan stood behind them.

Even if he did nothing but stand there, he provided them with endless courage.

“You’ve all made good progress during this time,” Li Qingshan observed their cultivation levels. They had all surpassed the realm of Earthly Immortals, indicating that they had worked hard.

Entering the Immortal Plane for seventy days and being able to break through to the realm of Earthly Immortals was already very good, not to mention that they had reached the peak of the Earthly Immortal realm.

“Brother, are you coming out this time to take a rest or to continue with seclusion?” Little Nine asked, holding Li Qingshan’s arm.

“I’m not going into seclusion anymore. I’ll live a leisurely life for a while and guide you in your cultivation,” Li Qingshan said.
