Chapter 582: 582: Terrifying Existence_1
“After attaining Mahayana Perfection, he voluntarily dissolved his body to become a Scattered Immortal, and now he isn’t even six thousand years old!”
“Fond of taking concubines, he has a great number of outstanding consorts, and even an offspring who is also a reincarnated immortal!”
The information gathered before her left Hua Feiyan’s beautiful eyes wide in astonishment.
“How is this possible!”
She took a deep breath.
Incredulity filled her eyes.
It wasn’t surprising.
Anyone would find it hard to believe.
She had assumed that Qin Changqing must have cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years. After all, the last time she and Bai Zhi had exhibited strength comparable to Spirit Immortal Perfection, they were still defeated miserably.
In the end, the power they mustered, which briefly rose to that of a Heavenly Immortal, was not enough to surpass Qin Changqing.
Such formidable strength, in her eyes, meant at least the completion of Eight Transformations, and possibly even Nine Transformations.
Wouldn’t that take hundreds of thousands of years?
But she never anticipated that Qin Changqing had achieved his current level of power in just a few thousand years.
Even a Demon Immortal, blessed daily by great powers, couldn’t possibly grow at such a terrifying speed.
“Who is he!”
This question filled Hua Feiyan’s heart.
Who is he!
Even though Hua Feiyan had reached the level of Profound Immortal, she found it difficult to comprehend how Qin Changqing could grow at such a rate.
Indeed, Qin Changqing held the title of a Reincarnated Immortal, but in Hua Feiyan’s view, so what if he was a Reincarnated Immortal?
The title of a Reincarnated Immortal was certainly extraordinary in the eyes of those in Ling Yu (Spirit Domain).
Unless there were accidents, one could certainly become immortal again.
However, to someone like Hua Feiyan who was already an immortal, and a Profound Immortal at that, it seemed rather mundane.
Moreover, most reincarnated immortals would not choose to pursue Nine Transformations to Immortality.
For instance, a Golden Immortal reincarnate, like Tao Yao, who once reached Golden Immortal Perfection, could, even without Qin Changqing, ascend again in at most ten thousand years.
After ascending, with the preparations made before reincarnation, she would need only a hundred thousand years to return to Golden Immortal Perfection.
Why would she risk a path fraught with almost a certainty of death to attempt Nine Transformations?
Although the benefits of Nine Transformations were substantial, the risks were even greater.
The more powerful one became, the less willing they were to take such risks.
But there were exceptions.
If it were the reincarnation of a Taiyi Immortal King, a small number of Taiyi Immortal Kings might choose to do so.
Because they desired to prove themselves as Daluo Supreme Immortals.
Beyond Golden Immortals lie the realms of Taiyi and Daluo.
One can prove oneself as Taiyi first and then Daluo.
But after attaining the Taiyi Tao Fruit, proving oneself as Daluo becomes unimaginably more difficult.
Taiyi Tao Fruit and Grand Luo Tao Fruit are two separate kinds of fruits, and one does not imply succession from the other.
These are two very distinct realms, despite one being higher than the other, they are parallel.
Above Taiyi and Daluo lies a new realm.
Breaking through to that realm through Taiyi comes at a difficulty many times greater than through Daluo.
Therefore, unless a Taiyi Immortal King encounters some unique fortune, or endures the test of time, it is very likely they will spend their entire life within the realm of Taiyi.
Additionally, even after reincarnation, an Immortal King’s past experience in attaining Taiyi could interfere with their proof as Daluo.
In such a case, if there truly were a reincarnated Taiyi Immortal King, they might choose Nine Transformations, laying the Tao foundation for proving themselves as Daluo during their ascension with the various preparations they had made.
However, the reincarnation of an Immortal King is exceedingly rare.
The risks involved in an Immortal King reincarnation are great, and in some aspects, even greater than for a common immortal.
Hua Feiyan might seem powerful now, but she is tens of thousands of years away from Golden Immortal.
Let alone the level of Immortal King.
It seems as if there’s only one realm in between.
But in reality, that distance could be an entire lifetime.
It’s forever!
“Could he be the reincarnation of an Immortal King?”
Hua Feiyan thought.
But immediately, she negated that idea.
An Immortal King reincarnated… wouldn’t be as monstrous as Qin Changqing.
In these past few years, what Qin Changqing said was proving true.
His daughter, Xiaoxiao, was only in her teens, and she was already nearing the Nascent Soul Stage.
This daughter was very likely to achieve Nascent Soul before the age of twenty.
Nascent Soul by twenty!
Even in the Devil Immortal Realm, this was exceedingly rare.
Advancing too quickly sometimes is indeed not a good thing.
Worried about potential hidden dangers, Hua Feiyan kept a close watch on her own daughter.
With her realm, she could detect any hidden dangers in time.
Having a Profound Immortal monitoring every day to prevent cultivation mishaps was a very rare treatment, even in both the Immortal World and the Devil Immortal Realm.
Because she was watching so closely, Hua Feiyan discovered that her daughter had no hidden dangers at all.
Although she progressed quickly, each of her steps was exceptionally solid.
Her temperament was also very stable.
Compared with cultivators of the same level, she was even stronger.
Such a daughter made Hua Feiyan think of what Qin Changqing had said, that his descendants would receive the favor of the heavens.
From what she understood, it seemed… exactly so!
This miraculous Qin Changqing, how could he merely be the reincarnation of an Immortal King?
Indeed, when she thought of Qin Changqing, even in front of the Immortal King, she couldn’t help but add the words “merely.”
This sufficiently demonstrated that in Hua Feiyan’s heart, Qin Changqing had already become unimaginably miraculous.
If not a reincarnation of the Taiyi Immortal King, then who could he be?
A Daluo Supreme Immortal?
Or, an even more terrifying existence?
But why would such beings choose to reincarnate?
“An Ancient Emperor, or an Ancient Saint? Or perhaps…”
These thoughts suddenly sprang to her mind.
The history of the Immortal World is incredibly long, with countless years of existence.
No one knows how many devastating wars have been waged.
Even the Immortal World itself had shattered before.
Otherwise, why would there be the Star Sea and the Nine Heavens?
Then, is it possible that Qin Changqing is the reincarnation of some extremely ancient being?
This idea couldn’t help but emerge in her mind.
An ancient being who was injured and fell into slumber during the primordial wars, waking up to find that seas had changed into mulberry fields and the world had transformed, with even the sun looking different.
This world no longer belonged to him.
No matter how strong his power was, it had become a thing of the past.
The era had changed, the laws of heaven and earth had changed, the Dao of Heaven and Earth had also changed.
In such a situation, in order to return to the peak, he chose to reincarnate for cultivation and embarked on the most perilous path.
The reason he took such a dangerous path was probably out of necessity.
Because if he didn’t, others might notice something amiss when he attempted to ascend.
The waters of the Immortal World are very deep.
On the surface, they naturally appear calm.
Just like the ocean, even if a nuclear bomb explodes in the deep sea, when it reaches the surface, all that results may be just a small splash.
Considering this, Hua Feiyan felt that this possibility was not small.
Otherwise, how could she explain Qin Changqing’s monstrous growth?
The moment she thought of this possibility, she took a deep breath.
With her current power, there was hope in this life to achieve Golden Immortal Perfection.
If she went further up, that would depend on luck.
But now, could it be that Qin Changqing, her daughter’s father, was possibly such a fearsome being?
Of course, at the moment, this was still just her speculation.
It might not be the case.
