"In fact, being able to undergo tribulation and ascend to the True Immortal Realm is naturally considered by cultivators below the Mahayana Realm to be enlightened immortals who have achieved meritorious perfection. However, those of us in this realm are clear that the True Immortal Realm is merely the beginning of entering the immortal path, and there is boundless scenery beyond... Although we now possess endless lifespans, we are not coexisting with heaven and earth, or shining with the sun and moon. The reason is this Three Decay Tribulation." Qi Liang listened attentively to Bai Li Yan's teachings while explaining to Han Li through voice transmission.

"Oh, I wonder if this so-called Three Decay Tribulation is similar to the tribulation of Mahayana ascension? How can it be resisted?" Han Li frowned slightly and asked.

"Although the Three Decays are called tribulations, they have nothing to do with the ascension tribulation. They are the three kinds of misfortunes that True Immortal Realm cultivators will encounter in their long years of cultivation. The first decay is Immortal Decay, in which the immortal spiritual power in the body is lost for no reason, and the cultivation base is greatly damaged, until the realm falls... The second decay is Physical Decay, in which the physical body gradually decays, the physique becomes weaker, and eventually it cannot hold immortal spiritual power, until it explodes and dies... As for the third decay, it is Cavity Decay, which is related to the immortal cavities. There are many methods circulating to resist these three tribulations, but whether they are effective or not varies from person to person. However, if one can achieve something in a certain law, it can greatly help resist the decay tribulations." Qi Liang continued to explain.

"I see. No wonder all True Immortal Realm cultivators pursue understanding or want to master the power of laws. In addition to improving their own strength, more of it is probably to resist these three decays. I wonder when these three decays will come, or do they need to meet certain conditions to be triggered?" Han Li said after thinking for a moment.

At this moment, his expression was normal, but his heart was quite shaken. Perhaps it was because of his previous amnesia, but he knew nothing about this matter. Only after listening to Qi Liang's explanation today did he realize that True Immortal cultivation is not truly worry-free from now on, and there are still all kinds of dangers.

"The arrival of the first two types of decay tribulations varies from person to person, and it all depends on fate. Some people are lucky and may not encounter them for millions of years, while others are unlucky and will encounter them in tens of thousands of years... Brother Li, do you remember Elder Fang Zhuan of the Gong Transmission Hall? He was previously a mid-True Immortal Realm cultivator, and even only one step away from twenty-four cavities, but he suffered Immortal Power Decay, his cultivation base plummeted, and he was forced back to the Mahayana Realm." Qi Liang continued to transmit his voice, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"Brother Qi, are you saying that the arrival of the first two decays is related to the time of cultivation? If the cultivator's cultivation speed is fast enough to advance to the Golden Immortal Realm as soon as possible, is it possible to avoid them?" Han Li asked after thinking for a moment.

"Hehe, that's true. If one can achieve Golden Immortal within ten thousand years, the possibility of encountering the first two decays is naturally extremely small. But how many people in the entire Immortal World can do it? Being able to break through to the mid-True Immortal Realm within ten thousand years is already a great fortune. Moreover, even if a True Immortal cultivates all the time and does not encounter the first two decay tribulations, if he wants to impact the Golden Immortal Realm, then the third decay is unavoidable." Qi Liang shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"What do you mean by that?" Han Li's heart moved.

"I only know that anyone who wants to impact the Golden Immortal Realm must experience this third decay, and once this decay comes, its consequences are no less than the first two, which is why there are so few Golden Immortal Realm cultivators. As for the specific reason, I don't know." Qi Liang shook his head.

"Then what are the other two decays in the Five Decays of Heaven and Man mentioned by Taoist Master Bai Li just now?" Han Li nodded thoughtfully and asked again.

"It is said that once you become a Golden Immortal, you will face two more decays, collectively called the 'Five Decays of Heaven and Man.' I don't know what they are specifically, but in short, the immortal path is vast..."

Before Qi Liang could finish speaking, a sudden change occurred on the white jade platform.

It was seen that among the twelve Candle Dragon Dao Golden Immortal Taoist Masters who were originally sitting cross-legged on the left side of the round cauldron, eight suddenly slapped the futons under them, stood up one after another, and flicked their wrists.

"Clang clang clang"

A burst of chain shaking sound that pierced the silence rang out.

Led by Ouyang Kuishan, the sleeves of these eight Golden Immortals shone with golden light, and eight arm-thick golden chains flew out like spirit snakes, shining with golden runes, winding and entwining from the left side.

Their target was Bai Li Yan, who was lecturing!

Bai Li Yan's expression did not change, and the sound of his lecture stopped abruptly.

Without seeing how he moved, a piece of red light suddenly lit up all over his body, surrounding him like a layer of fire-red light curtain.

The chains wrapped around him, colliding with a series of sparks, making bursts of "clang clang" sounds, but they could not get close to Bai Li Yan's body, and could only wrap around outside the light curtain in layers.

Bai Li Yan suddenly raised his foot and stomped on the ground, and a piece of red light under his feet suddenly lit up, and the entire white jade platform shook violently. His figure rose into the sky and was about to fly into the sky.

Seeing this, Ouyang Kuishan and others looked solemn and quickly cast a spell, simultaneously chanting a "freeze" word.

The eight golden chains wrapped around immediately lit up with golden light and tightened suddenly, tightly holding Bai Li Yan and the red light curtain at the same time.

Bai Li Yan's figure stagnated suddenly and was pulled back to the high platform.

The red light on his hands lit up and grabbed towards the golden chains entwined in front of him.

Only a "sizzling" sound was heard.

A piece of golden electric light suddenly ejected from the chains, like hundreds of golden electric dragons,窜ing up his arms.

Bai Li Yan only felt a numbness in his arms and temporarily lost consciousness.

At the same time, a burst of electric light ejected from the golden chains, connected and intertwined with each other, and actually condensed into substance, instantly condensing a square golden cage around, trapping Bai Li Yan in the center.

Although Bai Li Yan immediately recovered from the numbness, it was not so easy to escape because of this less than a breath of delay.

At this moment, on the golden cage surrounding him, electric light flickered faintly on each golden pillar, and a layer of scale-like patterns was engraved on it.

On the surface of the pattern, there were also ancient and simple ancient seal runes floating, from which a clear aura of laws was emitted.

Obviously, these eight golden chains are a set of high-level immortal artifacts specially used to deal with Bai Li Yan.

What happened just now seemed long, but in reality, it only happened in the blink of an eye. Even the tens of thousands of cultivator disciples on the surrounding square had not realized what had happened.

All of this had already happened.

The thirty-six vice Taoist Masters on the white jade platform were all shocked when they saw this scene. They looked at each other, somewhat at a loss, obviously they had not received any news in advance.

Sitting on the other side, Yu Yangzi and others who came to observe the ceremony were even more surprised and stood up one after another.

Some of them opened their mouths to ask, but seeing the strange atmosphere here, they remained silent in the end.

Han Li noticed the abnormality, but like everyone around him, he was still sitting cross-legged on the futon, just looking up with a puzzled face.

"What's going on?" Qi Liang also frowned and asked in confusion.

On the white jade platform, Taoist Hu Yan's face was gloomy, and he stepped forward. The golden-haired man and the black-紗 woman did not participate in the deployment of the trapped formation, and immediately flashed and stood in front of him.

"What are you doing? Do you want to rebel?" Taoist Hu Yan was furious and shouted angrily.

Hearing the sound, a hint of shame flashed in the eyes of these people, but no one spoke. The two people blocking him did not want to give way at all.

Seeing this, a hint of shock and anger flashed in Yun Ni's eyes. Although she stood up, she was somewhat alert and distanced herself slightly from these Taoist Masters around her.

From the current situation, it is clear that only she and Taoist Hu Yan were kept in the dark among these twelve Taoist Masters.

In the cage, Bai Li Yan's eyes slowly swept across the crowd, and red light lit up on his arms.

"Bang"

A violent and scorching flame lit up from his arms, burning the golden chains wrapped around him.

The red light emitted by the raging flames made his already smooth and jade-like skin red, as if it were red jade.

"This Golden Scale Dragon Locking Array can't trap me for too long. What other means do you have? Why don't you use them quickly?" Bai Li Yan's voice turned cold and he asked.

Hearing this, Ouyang Kuishan and others seemed to have discussed it in advance and all remained silent, and no one answered.

The inner and outer disciples on the square did not understand what was going on, they just talked to each other and looked up.

As for the elders of other sects who came to observe the ceremony, they were even more surprised and did not know what had happened. Obviously, they also realized that the matter was not simple. They sat in place and did not take any other actions.

In the high sky beside the white jade platform, in the blue giant flower floating, Palace Master Cang Liu had already stood up from the golden chair, frowned and looked over here, with a few doubts in his eyes.

"Great Palace Master, should we..." The young man with a delicate appearance behind him, no less than a woman, stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

"Don't worry, let's see what happens first. If it's an internal affair of Candle Dragon Dao, we outsiders should not interfere." Palace Master Cang Liu pondered for a moment and shook his head.

Just then, his face suddenly changed slightly and he looked up towards the high sky.

In the deeper depths of the higher sky, a strand of golden thread hundreds of feet long suddenly appeared. After a flash of light, it suddenly grew larger, turning into a dazzling golden light, in which twenty or thirty figures appeared.

The leading one had a square face, narrow eyes, a prominent nose, and two slender silver whiskers above his lips. He was quite slender, wearing a snow-white robe embroidered with golden cloud patterns, glittering with spiritual light, which looked very extraordinary.

Behind him, the twenty or thirty men and women were mostly wearing snow-white robes, only a few people's clothes were not uniform, but the aura on their bodies was terrifyingly powerful. Together, they gave people a suffocating feeling like a storm was about to come and dark clouds were pressing down on the city.

The Candle Dragon Dao people, who were already at a loss because of the sudden changes, were now in an uproar.
