Chapter 172 Resurrection of an Old Friend
Li Qingshan entered the Fourth World with Hua Yun, earnestly searching for the Spring of Life.
The Fourth World was vast and expansive, appearing as a colossal plane that stretched far beyond the scope of the Immortal Plane in the universe.
Li Qingshan took charge of half of the search, while Chu Xiangyu and the Divine Concubine handled the other half.
With his current Venerable Realm cultivation, Li Qingshan's primordial spirit effortlessly scanned the Fourth World.
Additionally, with Hua Yun by his side, they easily discovered hidden micro-worlds and folded realms within the Fourth World.
After exploring each of these worlds, Li Qingshan eventually found the Spring of Life.
The Spring of Life was an unrooted spiritual spring, hidden within an isolated world. The entire world was devoid of anything else except the wandering presence of the Spring of Life.
Li Qingshan and Hua Yun beheld the Spring of Life, shimmering in a serene blue-green hue, emanating a refreshing fragrance that invigorated the senses. It exuded a faint glow within this folded realm, creating a mesmerizing and ethereal sight.
"Is this the Spring of Life?" Li Qingshan exclaimed in astonishment.
Hua Yun nodded and said, "This is indeed the Spring of Life. Such things are not found within this universe alone. Only by transcending this universe and venturing into broader worlds, perhaps even the legendary realm of Chaos, can one find treasures like the Spring of Life."
"This Spring of Life was brought out by Shi Tian from the Supreme Path. He abandoned everything to escape but hid the Spring of Life. It has sustained his peak state all these years. Fortunately, there are still some left here, enough to resurrect two people," Hua Yun explained.
"How do we store it away?" Li Qingshan asked.
"Why do you want to store it away?" Hua Yun countered.
"You and Chu Xiangyu intend to resurrect someone, right? It can be done right here," Hua Yun suggested.
Li Qingshan considered her words and agreed. There was no need to put away the Spring of Life unnecessarily. Since it wasn't abundant, he immediately called Chu Xiangyu and informed him that he had found the Spring of Life.
In the next moment, Chu Xiangyu and the Divine Concubine tore through space and descended.
"This is the Spring of Life. It's truly magnificent," Chu Xiangyu exclaimed in admiration upon seeing the Spring of Life.
"The refreshing fragrance indeed has the power to reverse life and death," exclaimed the Divine Concubine in awe.
"The Rebirth Spring in the Fourth World was modified by Shi Tian based on the properties of the Spring of Life. Every person born in the Fourth World has their soul imprinted in the Rebirth Spring. So even after death, one can be retrieved from the Rebirth Spring. Of course, to resurrect someone, the cultivator needs to reach the Immortal King Realm. In a sense, the Rebirth Spring is an evolution of the Spring of Life, having its significance in this universe," explained Hua Yun to Li Qingshan.
"How can we use the Spring of Life to resurrect someone?" Li Qingshan asked.
"Before your life can be split in two, each of you will hold one half. Then, deep in your heart, call out to that person. Trace their traces in the river of time and guide them to the Spring of Life. The Spring of Life will pull them out from their past years and grant them a new life," Hua Yun explained carefully.
Having ventured into the Supreme Path, she naturally understood how to use the Spring of Life.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Li Qingshan and Chu Xiangyu obediently split the Spring of Life into two halves and held them in their palms.
Li Qingshan began to reminisce about his past with Taoist Dragon.
Since arriving in the Immortal Plane, especially after the defensive battle at Emperor's Pass, where General Bai recommended Li Qingshan to enter the Celestial Court Academy, Li Qingshan encountered Taoist Dragon, who guarded the Time Channel within the academy.
From then on, Taoist Dragon recognized Li Qingshan's boundless potential and took it upon himself to mentor him, offering help wherever needed.
With these thoughts in mind, Li Qingshan closed his eyes and gently stroked the Spring of Life in his palm.
As he touched it, time began to ripple gently.
Li Qingshan delicately began to rewind time.
With his current power and understanding of the rules, rewinding time was effortless for him.
Within the ancient and vast river of time lay countless pasts-some ordinary, some brilliant, some great, and some filled with sacrifice...
Taoist Dragon belonged to the category of those who sacrificed.
He sacrificed himself to prolong Li Qingshan's life.

Li Qingshan rewound time to that particular day.
It was the day when the Changsheng Clan hosted a banquet.
Taoist Dragon, in his utmost glory, ventured deep into the cosmos with an Emperor, and from then on, no news was heard from him.
Ding!
Time froze at that moment.
Taoist Dragon and the Emperor were engaged in a grand battle at the forefront of the universe.
Li Qingshan locked this moment into eternity.
Soon after, the Spring of Life began to gently move, slowly enveloping Taoist Dragon.
Boom!
Time suddenly ruptured, and the eternity vanished abruptly. The rewound time swiftly returned to its normal course.
Before Li Qingshan stood the familiar elderly figure.
Taoist Dragon.
Li Qingshan smiled as he saw Taoist Dragon, feeling a wave of guilt dissipate from his heart now that Taoist Dragon was resurrected.
The deep remorse he had carried since Taoist Dragon's death years ago finally eased with this moment of resurrection.
"Long time no see!" Li Qingshan greeted Taoist Dragon with a joyful smile.
Taoist Dragon scratched his head, looking around. Although unsure of his current whereabouts, he remained composed.
"It feels like I've had a very long dream," Taoist Dragon recalled with emotion.
"What did you dream about?" Li Qingshan asked.
"I dreamed that the Celestial Court underwent a complete transformation, and I dreamed of achieving something I've always yearned for, something you effortlessly made a success under your command," Taoist Dragon said softly.
Li Qingshan chuckled in response to Taoist Dragon's words.
"Where exactly are we?"
"I remember that I ascended to the peak and stepped into the Emperor Realm. I gave it my all and then died sadly."
"How am I alive again?"
Taoist Dragon's memories began to slowly return, and he recalled everything that had happened before, asking Li Qingshan in astonishment.
Li Qingshan remained silent, raising his finger and gently touching Taoist Dragon's glabella.
In an instant, everything that had occurred after his demise unfolded before Taoist Dragon's eyes.
Taoist Dragon trembled slightly, staring wide-eyed at Li Qingshan.
So many things had happened after his fall?
"You really revived the Celestial Court? Prevented the collapse of the grand hall and reversed the surging tide?" Taoist Dragon looked at Li Qingshan with joy. To him, nothing was more important than the fate of the Celestial Court.
"Once you return to the Celestial Court and see for yourself, you'll know," Li Qingshan said gently.
"Thank you," Taoist Dragon's eyes welled up with gratitude towards Li Qingshan. Search* The NôvelFire()net website on Google to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"Actually, I should be thanking you. Well, let's not dwell on that now. There's still work to be done to wrap up after the great battle. Could you please return to the Celestial Court now and have them send someone to take over the Fourth World? This realm is teeming with endless energy that can nourish the Immortal Plane. Breaking through to Emperor and Venerable realms will no longer be just a dream," Li Qingshan said.
"If I return to the Immortal Plane and inform the Celestial Court, what about you?" Taoist Dragon inquired.
"All the troubles in the Immortal Plane have been resolved, and the Celestial Court is back on track. I've also left some measures in place. That's sufficient for me. I intend to retire now, living a quiet life like a hermit, not bothering with worldly affairs, calmly awaiting the arrival of the Supreme Path," Li Qingshan revealed his plans.
Having achieved the Venerable realm, the Emperor's Space no longer held any purpose for him, so Li Qingshan no longer needed it and quietly cultivate.
Taoist Dragon nodded understandingly, didn't try to persuade him further, and said. "Since you've made up your mind, I'll go back to the Celestial Court first."
Li Qingshan nodded in return, watching Taoist Dragon depart.
Meanwhile, on the other side, General Bai had also been revived by Chu Xiangyu using the Spring of Life.
Seeing General Bai, Li Qingshan called out, "Big Brother Bai, long time no see."
