Chapter 562 Abdication
Ding Ling and Li Canghai were no longer interested in exploring the Heavenly Palace.
The two saw that the Heavenly Ladder had dimmed a lot.
They did not dare to delay any longer, and immediately followed the way they came, stepping down the Heavenly Ladder.
Ding Ling held the large plaque of the South Heavenly Gate in front of him and flew down all the way.
It was difficult to go up the Heavenly Ladder.
It was even more difficult to go down the Heavenly Ladder.
But for someone like Ding Ling who had excellent lightness skills, it was not a big problem.
In the Heavenly Palace, Ding Ling was like being shackled, and it was more like entering the world of weak water. His body was extremely heavy and difficult to fly. But when he arrived at the Heavenly Ladder, it was completely different.
He flew all the way, like wind and lightning.
His body was light and graceful, like a floating cloud cutting through the sky.
Because the Heavenly Ladder was almost vertical, the speed of flying down the Heavenly Ladder was much faster than when he came.
This was the case for Ding Ling.
For someone who was not strong in lightness skills.
It is true that ‘it is easy to climb up the mountain but difficult to descend’. The higher you go, the steeper the slope becomes. If you are not good at Qinggong, it is easy to fall down and die when you go down the mountain.
Of course.
This refers to the ladder to the Immortal Changchun Valley.
The ladder where Ding Ling completed the task was not so steep, but it was easier to climb for most first-class masters.
When he came back.
Ding Ling saw the artificial sun again.
This time, he roughly guessed that the artificial sun might be related to the goddess who erected the stone tablet and planted the immortal tree.
Maybe it was a treasure in her hand.
It’s just a pity.
Ding Ling can’t get close to the sun now, so he can only sigh at the treasure.
Whoosh!
Ding Ling and Li Canghai landed in the Immortal Changchun Valley one after the other.
Almost not long after they landed.
Whoosh!
The light of the ladder suddenly dimmed, and finally with a whoosh, it retracted to the surface like a thread, at an extremely fast speed. Almost at the same time, the stone tablet that was dug to the ground also automatically turned over and stood up again, suppressing the original position of the ladder.
Ding Ling and Li Canghai were stunned.
Ding Ling was more and more sure that the stone tablet was a magic weapon. He stepped forward again to try to grab it, but this time he couldn't dig it up no matter what. He couldn't help but say:
"It seems that the ladder under the stone tablet also needs energy to activate. Now that the energy is exhausted, it may take another ten or hundred years to accumulate it again before the stone tablet can be dug down again and activate the ladder."
Li Canghai nodded, she thought so too. Just like the immortal tree and the immortal spring, it takes time to gather the energy of life essence to have an effect.
"Go back."
We have explored this place.
If you want to come again, you may have to wait until Zhong Ling and the others are stronger and Li Canghai leads the way.
After Ding Ling was ready to go back, he arranged the follow-up matters and immediately broke through the void and left.
Went to the Heavenly Palace.
Feeling the omnipresent shackles and restraining force.
Ding Ling once again deeply realized that he was still very weak and needed to make continuous progress.
Two people, each holding a piece of fresh bark, left the Immortal Changchun Valley.
Kong!
After stepping out of the tunnel where the birth gate was.
Just two blinks.
The tunnel disappeared out of thin air.
When I looked again.
This is still an ordinary karst cave.
No matter who comes, they will never think that there is another cave in this karst cave world!
And after walking around in this karst cave for more than ten times, there is no abnormality.
The Immortal Changchun Valley is surprisingly in another dimension cave world.
The key to open the door.
Ding Ling returned it to Li Canghai again.
He took a piece of bark himself. If he wants to go there in the future, he can use the piece he took.
Just out of the Immortal Changchun Valley.
The bark becomes as tough as iron sheet.
Feel it carefully.
Sure enough, it has no effect of enhancing vitality and so on.
Obviously, this bark can only be eaten next to the immortal tree.
"How strange."
Li Canghai couldn't figure it out, and could only conclude:
"The world is really full of wonders."
Ding Ling deeply agreed.
He had even seen the broken Nantianmen.
For such a thing to happen, it can only be said that although it is strange, it is absolutely understandable.
...
...
Ding Ling returned to the Luoyang Palace again.
The plaque of Nantianmen was placed in a corner of the imperial study by him.
He tested the power of this plaque after he came back.
It is indeed domineering.
A small mountain can be easily smashed and cracked by a plaque!
It is just extremely depleting of the immortal supreme energy. Ding Ling can't hold it for too long with it as a weapon.
This is the second.
The most troublesome thing is that this plaque is too wide, and it is not convenient for Ding Ling to use it as a weapon. The best way is to melt it and make it into a top-grade magic weapon.
But Ding Ling has tried methods such as burning.
Can't melt it!
"It seems that the flame level in this world is too low. And the material level of this plaque is too high!"
Ding Ling was surprised and happy.
If this plaque is kept, it may be used to make magic weapons, immortal weapons, etc. in the future.
"It seems that there is no way to take it to the upper world. Let this plaque stay in this world. If I don't have the right material to make immortal weapons, etc. in the future, I can return to this world and refine this plaque."
It can't be refined now.
It's because the means and cultivation level and the flame level are not enough.
Ding Ling knows himself well and won't force himself now.
The reason why he doesn't plan to take this plaque to the upper world.
First, the plaque is too big, smooth and without handles, and much wider than an ordinary door, so it is not suitable for use as a weapon.
Second, the plaque consumes too much immortal supreme qi to operate. Instead of this, he might as well use the broken immortal weapon halberd he got.
Third, the storage bag can't hold it. He can't carry a plaque back and forth every day, right? Besides, the immortal supreme qi can't support Ding Ling to carry a plaque back and forth every day.
When returning to Luoyang, Ding Ling's immortal supreme qi was too severely consumed, so he had to put the plaque aside, rest and recover, and then go on the road again.
Fourth, if this plaque is placed in this world, it can be used in the lower world in the future.
Thinking of this.
Ding Ling no longer cares about the plaque.
Instead, he began to deal with government affairs and read books.
The tenth batch of books is not full.
Ding Ling doesn't mind.
If he has time, he will go and take a look.
In her spare time, she would also specially instruct Li Canghai, Li Qinglu, Zhong Ling, and Mu Wanqing on the cultivation methods.
Li Canghai's skills were extremely profound. She drank the immortal spring water and ate the immortal tree bark. Her aptitude and potential seemed to have improved a lot. She had a photographic memory and extremely high comprehension and wisdom, so she reached the minimum requirements for practicing the eternal and immortal Changchun Gong.
After she came back, she began to practice this method.
But there were too many things she didn't understand, so she asked Ding Ling. Ding Ling was at the top of this method and explained it from a high-level perspective. He was incisive and to the point.
Every time, Li Canghai was enlightened.
Li Canghai's admiration and respect for Ding Ling were getting better day by day.
He sighed more than once that if Xiaoyaozi saw Ding Ling, he would definitely sigh that there are talented people in every generation, and the new generation replaces the old!
...
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye.
Ding Ling's tenth batch of books was finally filled.
Ding Ling finished reading.
His Buddha spirit rose.
[Wisdom +0.1]
[Martial Arts Furnace Progress 50%]
Jumped two percentage points from 48%.
At this point.
Ding Ling had basically drained all the secret books on the surface of this world.
You should know that Ding Ling needs to read more than a day for each batch of books, and sometimes two or three days.
He reads books like turning pages, but it still takes so long.
You can know how huge a batch of books is!
To say that he is now well-read is to despise him.
Full of knowledge, well-read, and talented, these words are not enough to describe his current strength.
Ding Ling saw that it was time.
He began to call Xiao Feng and discuss the matter of abdication with him in detail.
For more than half a year.
Ding Ling has been consciously cultivating Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng is also a genius. After various suggestions from Ding Ling and the help of famous officials in the court, now whether it is government affairs or military theory, he is not a first-class expert, but he is also quite amazing.
The most important thing is that Xiao Feng is a man of great character, generosity, broad-mindedness, courage, knowledge, and deep gratitude.
Ding Ling admires such people very much.
However. Even so.
Xiao Feng was too frightened to accept the order.
He said that he was a Khitan and was not qualified to take on this important task.
Ding Ling said:
"Xiao Feng, I value your character, not your origin. Besides, Khitans and Han people are one family now. Why should we have different opinions? As long as you love your country and the people, serve the people, and fight for the nine states and the world, and are determined to govern, do you still have to feel guilty?"
Xiao Feng was speechless.
Ding Ling persuaded him again.
Xiao Feng was ashamed and moved. He knelt on the ground and bowed with great ceremony. He said:
"Since your majesty took office, you have appointed people to the right posts, enforced strict laws and disciplines, improved internal affairs, and been magnanimous. You have been willing to accept advice, which has made the country increasingly powerful. The surrounding small countries admire your strength and submit to you!
I am afraid that I can't do as well as your majesty."
"What are you afraid of?"
Ding Ling smiled and said:
"Since I took office, I have basically not been in charge of anything. You can do it boldly. I believe in you."
Xiao Feng's experience as the King of the Southern Courtyard proved his ability.
In addition, in the past six months or so.
Ding Ling has inspected Xiao Feng many times.
Facts have proved that Xiao Feng is indeed a talent, suitable to be a king or even an emperor.
"It's settled. You go and prepare, and abdicate in three days."
"Your majesty."
Xiao Feng was terrified:
"Please think twice."
"I am about to ascend to heaven. What's the point of thinking twice? You can leave now. It's settled."
Hearing that Ding Ling was going to ascend to heaven.
Xiao Feng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
