this day. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Lie Zhenren was closing his eyes and comprehending the power of the flames in the stone statue in front of him, and his heart suddenly surged.

"Strange, strange," he muttered as he opened his eyes.

Those who cultivate the Tao understand the mysteries of heaven and earth, understand the essence of the operation of the world, and thus approach the Tao.

Because he understands the mechanism of the Tao, he has extraordinary powers.

According to legend, the Tao is unspeakable.

It is also said that the Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things. The simple explanation is that the Tao is the strongest, then 'one', then 'two', then 'three', and finally all mundane things. Cultivation is to do the opposite, so as to break through the limits of 'all things'.

It is also passed down that the Tao is neither born nor destroyed, nor is it immortal. If you truly understand the Tao, you will have eternal life.

Still, there has never been a man who has never really died.

Countless years, countless generations, countless cultivators have died out one after another. There seems to be a voice shouting: The Tao is unknowable!

Even Zhang Liezhen, who is now cultivated to an unfathomable level, can see the operation of most things in the world clearly, but there are still too many things that cannot be seen clearly.

For example, since its establishment, the Vulcan Gate has suffered four catastrophes.

For the first time, the three evil ways invaded, and the Huoshen Sect sent the patriarch Huoyun Shangren to sacrifice the Xuanhuo Mirror to eliminate the top power of the three evil paths, and the Central Plains ushered in a long period of peace since then;

The second time, the fire spirit riot in the Fire God Mountain, according to legend, the last generation of the Fire God Gate master Xuan Tianzhen finally sacrificed the Xuanhuo Mirror, and his whereabouts have been unknown since then;

The third time, a few years ago, Wan Poison Ze suddenly attacked, and Yuyang Zhenren sacrificed the Xuanhuo Mirror to destroy the demon at the expense of himself;

For the fourth time, the mysterious ghost ancestor secretly infiltrated and was discovered by the Wushan Holy Monk who was in the Fire God Gate, and then a shocking battle broke out. Tianshui Sect Sect Leader Tianxuan Zhenren and Wushan Holy Monk jointly sealed, but they were still broken by the Ghost Ancestor. At the moment of great crisis, the real person in Tsing Yi finally sacrificed himself and borrowed the power of the fire god to destroy the ghost ancestor.

On the surface, none of these things are connected and reasonable. But on the whole, there is something unusual. Compared to the Vulcan Sect, the other two righteous path leader sects have lived very safely. Although there have been countless battles with the evil way, he has not been attacked by the evil way once.

Is it a coincidence? Or is there something else going on?

Could it be that the supreme artifact Xuanhuo Mirror, which the Fire God Gate claimed to the outside world, was actually just a form condensed by the power of the Fire God? Not really?

Could it be that the 'Xuanhuo Mirror' driven by the people on the Fire Cloud was also the power of the Fire God borrowed from burning life?

One mystery after another, forming a vast web.

Zhang Liezhen's brows furrowed, and there were almost white flames jumping in his eyes.

"Ugh." After a long time, he finally sighed and continued to close his eyes and look at the stone statue of the god of fire in front of him.

The truth of these things though is crucial. But in comparison, the Vulcan Gate is more in urgent need of a strong man who can urge the 'power of the Vulcan'.

Let's not talk about these undercurrents between good and evil.

The whole world does not know how big it is, because there is never a record of who traveled completely. However, one thing is for sure, the range occupied by humans is very small, tiny.

The Great Buddha Temple is located in the west, the Tianshui Sect is in the north, the Fire God Gate is in the east, and the south is the Great Swamp of Ten Thousand Poisons. In the middle of the four directions is the Central Plains, a place that is completely ruled by humans in the true sense of the word.

Wan Poison Ze is not only densely covered with highly toxic biogas all year round, but also has countless poisonous insects and beasts. Therefore, the Poisonous Swamp can also be regarded as a natural barrier to protect human beings.

Beyond this circle is the wilderness. No one knows what the wilderness looks like, but legend has it that there are many ancient evils in it. These evil creatures are most fond of devouring human flesh and spirit, and are the most ferocious by nature.

The Three Noble Paths are located at the gateway of the Central Plains, and naturally take on the responsibility of defending mankind.

In this way, only the vacancy of Ten Thousand Poison Ze is left in the four directions. However, Wan Poison Ze is not only densely covered with highly toxic biogas all year round, but also has countless poisonous insects and beasts. Therefore, this vast expanse has also become a natural barrier to protect human beings.

As the aborigines of Wan Poison Ze, one of the three evil paths in the past, the 'Wan Poison Ze', that is, the Wu Clan, has repelled the foreign barbarian evil creatures that invaded Wan Poison Ze several times.

In this way, regardless of the real purpose, the Wu Clan can be regarded as defending the human race in the Central Plains, why did it become one of the three evil paths?

Compared with the people of the Central Plains, the Wu Ru Mao does not know how to be civilized when drinking blood, and especially likes to sacrifice the witch god with the flesh and blood of the living. In addition, he thinks he is a descendant of God, and he has always regarded the Central Plains people as pigs and sheep. In this way, the Wu clan invaded the Central Plains several times to plunder the living, causing great slaughter. It is precisely because of this that the Wu clan is classified as an evil way.

Due to the fact that the Wu clan does not have many activities, and the number of people in the tribe is too small to detect, it is because people know very little about them, and only call them 'Wan Poison Ze'.

The Central Plains is under the protection of these four directions, and it is difficult for foreign barbarian beasts and monsters to invade. Occasional sporadic monster invasions will soon be wiped out by the Three Righteous Paths. Human life is also stable.

More than 1,000 years ago, not only did foreign barbarian evil things often invade, but also evil cultivators within human beings caused chaos from time to time, and people's lives were in dire straits.

I don't know if the founder of the Huoshenmen, the Huoyun Master, took into account the hardships of the common people in the world, or if the Huoshenshan is more conducive to the inheritance of the Huoshenmen. In short, he built a strong 'door' on the last gap in the Central Plains.

and the Vulcan Gate sprung up. The situation in the world has reversed, and the evil way is like a fish in the throat, and it is difficult to kill human beings.

As a result, the evil ways actually united, and finally there was a great battle between good and evil in which the three evil ways attacked the Fire God Gate hundreds of years ago.

In that battle, the Fire Cloud Patriarch almost single-handedly wiped out all the top existences of the Evil Dao.

In that battle, he was invincible in the world and was named 'Venerable'!

It was also that battle that achieved the name of the supreme artifact of the Xuanhuo Mirror.

At the same time, the Vulcan Gate soared into the sky, ushering in hundreds of years of comfort for the world.

Comparatively speaking, the lifespan of ordinary people is less than 100 years, and these hundreds of years are enough time for facts to become legends.

A few months later.

The heart of the country, the Central Plains, a small city.

In the city lord's mansion, under the plaque with a blue background of gold letters, there are two majestic and majestic stone lions. Next to the stone lion stood two listless guards.

At this moment, two young girls came out of the door. The two girls were gorgeously dressed, but one was dressed as a maid and the other was dressed as a lady.

A maid can also dress so gorgeously, this city lord is obviously not short of money.

"Miss, you see that person is so weird, he has been hanging in front of our house for the past few days. Do you think it will be the bad guys? The maiden-dressed girl stared at a young man not far away.

This young man looks ordinary, and his clothes are even more ordinary, but the long iron rod he carries behind his back makes him look a little special.

"It should be a warrior of the rivers and lakes, maybe he wants to enter the City Lord's Mansion to seek an errand and has no way." The young lady glanced at the young man.

"Miss knows a lot." The maid's eyes were full of adoration.

"That's it. Miss Ben is gifted and intelligent, and no one can beat her. No demon can escape my eyes..."The young lady was full of smugness.

"Then do you want the guards to chase him away?" The maid glanced at the young man and frowned.

"Okay, you let the guards try him. See if he has real skills. The young lady rolled her eyes and bowed her head to the maid beside her.
