The undying phoenix's pair of eyes, similarly surrounded by flames, gazed at Mount Tengqing. The blue bird beside it, however, flapped its wings and chirped twice, seemingly filled with confidence towards Mount Tengqing.

  "Hmm..."

  Teng Qing Shan just made a move, and the ground shook. Only to see Teng Qing Shan displaying the "Earth Walking Fist", his whole body flashing with earthy yellow electric light, like a god. With each punch and kick, the ground was shaking slightly. Within dozens of meters around him, the power of the Earth also stirred.

  Li Jun simply blinked her eyes and looked at him, completely bewildered.

  Qing Luan only felt that the Qingyun Mountain Fist contained an unfathomable 'Tao'. But the Undead Phoenix could clearly perceive the unusual movement of the Earth's energy.

  In the eyes of the undying phoenix, a look of astonishment appeared!

  The Way of Heaven is beyond words!

  It is impossible to describe the 'Tao' through words, so that disciples can understand it. It can only be comprehended through enlightenment! Even if it's the undying phoenix, although she has already attained enlightenment, she still cannot teach her own children.

  Those who have attained a high level of spiritual enlightenment often understand it themselves but are unable to teach their disciples.

  Only a very small number, or those who have reached the level of 'Dongxu', can build their own inner world. With a very thorough understanding of the 'Tao', they can teach their disciples through some media.

  Or through calligraphy that embodies 'Tao', let disciples also learn calligraphy, and indirectly understand 'Tao' through calligraphy.

  Like Li Taibai's "Green Lotus Sword Song"!

  "Wow~~" The undying phoenix couldn't help but let out a loud cry of joy!

  She really didn't think that a human who hadn't even entered the virtual realm could convey the 'Tao' through just a few moves of fist technique. Unbelievable!

  "Boom!"

  After Teng Qing Shan finished the six moves of "Earth Movement Fist", his fist movement changed and transformed into "Water Movement Fist". The earthy color electricity on his body surface converged into his body. However, blue lightning flashed all over Teng Qing Shan's body, causing the lake surface beside him to tremble violently. Many water splashes flew towards Teng Qing Shan's fists.

  Wow~~ Wow~~

  Body shape moves, double fists swing between, a small 'water dragon' is constantly swimming.

  The originally astonished undying phoenix was truly shocked at this moment!

  Because these two boxing methods are different ways!

  Even if it was the master who followed him back then, when he realized the virtual realm, he also entered through the waterway and gradually deepened, becoming stronger and stronger. And this young human in front of him actually simultaneously understood different 'ways'. Moreover, all can be expressed through boxing techniques, how can it not shock him?

  "Huh!" Teng Qing Shan slowly exhaled a breath of air, his breathing as sharp as an arrow.

  Good job!

  Teng Qing Shan returned to his normal appearance from his previous divine state. He then took large strides towards the side of the mountain wall, and with a "whooshing" sound, Teng Qing Shan drew out the Reincarnation Spear.

  "Chee... Chee..." The young phoenix cried out to its mother, the 'Undying Phoenix'.

  Li Kun smiled and said: "Teng big brother, Qing Luan asked her mother, Teng big brother how is your fist method?" Teng Qingshan smiled, but in his heart he was full of confidence.

  "Wow~~" The undying phoenix also let out a low and mournful cry, its voice echoing throughout the entire valley.

  Teng Qing Shan looked at Li Kun, and Li Kun smiled: "The Undead Phoenix has already agreed. And said that your boxing skills are really good." Even if he was more picky, when seeing Teng Qing Shan's two sets of boxing skills, the Undead Phoenix had nothing to say.

  The blue phoenix's wings slightly trembled and transformed into a phantom. By the time its body solidified, it had already arrived beside Qingcheng Mountain.

  "Wow~~~" Qing Luan happily called out in front of Tan Qing Shan.

  "Teng big brother, look over there." Li Kun suddenly lowered his voice, pointing with his hand towards a nearby location.

  Hong Qing Shan also looked over, and against the mountain wall was a large black boulder. This black boulder had a faint dark red glow, its surface very smooth, except for the center, where a small blade of grass grew out strangely. The small blade of grass had five leaves, with a colorful halo flowing on the leaves.

  "Undying Grass!" Tian Qing's heart skipped a beat.

  Hong Qing Shan and Li Kun exchanged a glance, both of their eyes filled with shock.

  Undying grass! A treasure capable of driving the nine states' lands mad.

  The undying phoenix lived for many years and of course noticed the direction that Teng Qing Shan and Li Kun's eyes were looking.

  "What a pity, it's immature." Teng Qing Shan sighed.

  Undying grass, with seven leaves, radiating a seven-colored halo. If you take one Undying Grass orally, no matter how severe the injury, it can be recovered. And it can increase lifespan by 200 years.

  "Wow~~" The undying phoenix let out a loud cry towards Mount Tengqingshan.

  "Brother Teng!" Li Kun said with a cry and a laugh, "This is what the undying phoenix said. That undying grass has not yet matured, it's useless to look at it."

  Hong Qingshan could only smile helplessly.

  Li Jun looked at the Undying Phoenix in shock, which continued to cry out. Li Jun's face revealed a hint of madness as he repeatedly said: "Teng big brother, this Undying Phoenix said that it is extremely difficult for the Undying Grass to grow. Over thousands of years, it has only cultivated sixteen stalks of Undying Grass. Three of them were given to its benefactor... hmm, Teng big brother, listening to what it says, it should be Li Taibai, the Poet Immortal Sword."

  "Benefactor?" Teng Qing Shan was taken aback.

  This undying phoenix has connections with Li Taibai as well?

  "There are three more, and when it was in Kyushu, it gave one each to three humans." Li Kun said.

  Hong Qingshan was somewhat surprised.

  The undying phoenix, has it been to the nine continents?

  "Could it be... that the descriptions of 'Qing Luan' and the undying phoenix in books are actually about this thing in front of me?" Tong Qing Shan wondered.

  Li Kun's face also showed a shocked expression, and he continued: "The Undead Phoenix also said that decades ago, a human strongman who understood the language of beasts came from afar and obtained a stalk of Undead Grass from it."

  "Understand beast language?" Teng Qing Shan was somewhat puzzled.

  There are quite a few people in the world who understand animal language.

  The Tiangong Palace must have one! And the Snow Eagle Sect, which can tame the 'Snow Eagle', has been passed down from generation to generation, and it's estimated that there are also people who understand beast language. There is also the Sheshan Mountain, which can tame the ink wolf mount, and it's estimated that there are also masters of beast language. However, those who understand beast language and have reached the virtual realm are super strong, but they are rare!

  Unfortunately, Teng Qing Mountain knew too little about the powerful beings in the virtual world of Jiuzhou.

  "Xiao Jin, ask it, who are humans? Can it recognize them?" Teng Qing Shan inquired.

  Li Kun was also very curious and immediately asked the Undead Phoenix. The Undead Phoenix looked at Teng Qing Shan and made a response.

  "Teng big brother, the Undying Phoenix said that person is a strong practitioner of the Daoist school. The Undying Phoenix also determined that this person, in the nine states and great earth, should also be a top-notch figure." Li Kun's expression was strange, guessing, "Daoist? Is it my Tian Shen Palace master or the Ying family? Or is it the Yu Huang Gate?"

  The eight major sects all have Void Realm guardians!

  However, the eight major sects rarely engaged in large-scale wars with each other, and it was also rare for strong practitioners of the Void Realm to take out their phones. People all over the world didn't understand them either.

  "It's a Taoist lineage? Then it's not the Mani Temple." Teng Qingshan sighed quietly.

  He flew over from the sky, and was able to extort a stalk of undying grass from the Undying Phoenix. This kind of power is simply unmatched. "Moreover, this happened decades ago, and that strong practitioner in the Void Realm still has eight or nine out of ten chances of being alive."

  "Brother Teng." Li Kun showed a hint of a smile and continued, "As the undying phoenix said, the undying grass is very precious. It's difficult to cultivate, and now there are only nine stalks left. She won't just give it to us like that."

  Teng Qing Shan also understood this point.

  "But it also says..." Li Kun said with a smile, "If Qing Luan follows us, it can transform into an immortal phoenix within ten years. It will then give us the remaining nine immortal grasses! If it takes a hundred years to let Qing Luan transform into a phoenix, it will give us three immortal grasses! If it exceeds a hundred years, it will still give us one immortal grass. Only...it depends on whether we are still alive."

  Teng Qing Shan listened and couldn't help but smile wryly.

  "Ten years? This is not enough for the undying phoenix's greed." Teng Qing Shan, however, sensed the undying phoenix's emphasis on its only child.

  The Blue Luan can transform in ten years, and the nine stalks of undying grass are all given to Teng Qing Shan. Obviously... in the heart of the Undying Phoenix, the undying grass is far less precious than children.

  "I'm going to the North Sea Continent now, and taking the Undying Grass won't be of much use. When I return from the North Sea Continent, perhaps Qing Luan will have reached the Void Realm. At that time, I'll take the Undying Grass!" Teng Qing Shan thought to himself, then smiled and said, "Xiao Juan, tell the Undying Phoenix that I agree to this condition! I will do my best to cultivate Qing Luan."

  *****

  "Wow~~~~"

  The sea waves undulated, and the tung wood boat sailed forward with its sails billowing. On the tung wood boat now, there was an additional divine bird 'qing luan'.

  On deck.

  A low square table was placed on the deck, Teng Qing Shan and Li Kun sat opposite each other, while Kuang Feng Ying and Qing Luan also sat opposite each other, eating the three large fish that had just been roasted. Teng Qing Shan and Li Kun shared one bowl, while Kuang Feng Ying and Qing Luan each ate a bowl.

  "Wow~~~" The green phoenix let out excited cheers, eating and chirping non-stop.

  It was the first time to eat roasted fish, one mouthful was a whole fish, Teng Qing Shan and Li Kun had only eaten half of it, when Qing Luan had already finished eating the whole bowl of roasted fish.

  "Haha, Xiao Qing eats fast enough." Teng Qing Shan laughed.

  "Hmm. Xiao Hui has only eaten half of it." Li Kun said with a smile.

  Qing Luan's eyes stared at the bowl of the Storm Eagle in front, and the Storm Eagle seemed to deliberately slow down its speed, only eating a small half. Seeing this, the Storm Eagle immediately pushed the bowl to Qing Luan with its sharp beak, calling out several times, as if saying: "You eat, you eat."

  The green phoenix let out a pleased cry and continued eating with gusto.

  "Teng big brother, have you noticed? Since Xiao Qing walked with us, Xiao Hui has been extremely happy." Li Kun smiled secretly and glanced at Kuang Feng Ying, who was looking at Qing Luan with sparkling eyes. "Teng big brother, do you think Xiao Hui likes Xiao Qing?"

  "Does Feng Ying like Qing Luan?" Teng Qing Shan was stunned.

  Heng Qingshan heard Li Kun say this and also remembered the various omens of the cyclone after Qing Luan boarded the ship.

  "Agreed." Teng Qing Shan smiled, "The Azure Swallow is probably one of the most beautiful birds out there. It's normal for a single man like Feng Liu to have a crush on it. However...it's too weak. The Azure Swallow can knock it down with just one flap of its wings."

  ……

  Carrying Qing Luan onto the boat was indeed a wise decision. Because... this Qing Luan had once been to the Beihai Continent!

  Three months later.

  In the late afternoon, dark clouds covered the sky, and strong winds howled.

  Teng Qing Shan stood at the bow of the tung wood ship, gazing out at the chaotic sea ahead. The sea was filled with numerous whirlpools and turbulent waves.

  "Teng big brother, according to Xiao Qing's words, the sea area in front of us is about two or three thousand miles. As long as we pass through this sea area, we will reach the coastal waters of Beihai Continent. On some islands near the coast, there are also descendants of the Beihai Continent." Li Kun said excitedly, Teng Qing Shan had a confused expression on his face, gazing into the distance, with some excitement in his heart.

  "It's been half a year already!" Tong Qing Shan's eyes gleamed sharply.

  "After crossing this sea area, we will reach the coastal areas of the North Sea Continent. In about ten days or half a month, we can arrive at the North Sea Continent!"
