Yes, alien 'people'.

The outer heaven where Yuanqiao Mountain is located is called the Youquan Ruins by Teacher Xian.

It is said that as early as when Penglai was still in the Tai Chi world, Teacher Xian moved Yuan Qiao to this world.

Originally, the plan of the Taishang Nine True Sect was also to move the faction to the ruins to avoid the catastrophe, but later, I don't know what changes there were, the Great Dao Ancestor changed his mind, and finally chose to relocate the four mountains of Penglai to the Void Star Sea first.

It's not like the Void Star Sea is empty, the wind is calm, and there is no fart. The secluded spring returns to this world, the rain is like a note all day long, the tsunami is monstrous, and there are many demons.

There are not only all kinds of Kraken water monsters, but also a civilized race of demons, aquatic humans known as Youquan Sea Demons, or rather, fish people.

Well, it's a fish-man, and even in terms of appearance, it's quite similar to the ones made by the company, and it's like a relative.

Of course, this does not necessarily mean that there must be some causal relationship between the two, and dolphins and sharks look similar.

Li Qingyun estimates that this is some kind of convergent evolution.

That is, species originating from different ancestors, closely related to each other, or even completely different on the scale of evolution, because they inhabit the same type of environment, due to similar lifestyles, and under the same selection pressure, the whole or part of the morphological structure changes in the same direction, so as to evolve into a phenomenon with similar morphological characteristics or structures to adapt to the same environmental conditions.

And in this universe, the beings of the heavens and all worlds generally have the same choice pressure, so they are forced to converge and evolve in the final and only direction.

Well, to put it more bluntly.

Person.

The human form is in the heavens and all the worlds, and the parallel universe, even if only the earth's environment is considered, is not necessarily the most adaptable biological form to the natural environment.

But the problem is, if you don't evolve into this form, you're going to have problems.

In the distant past, there was a pressure called the Committee of Choice of Security.

In the foreseeable future, there is a choice pressure called the Nine Great Xuanmen.

As long as you look different from 'human',

Your race is an extraterrestrial demon, an alien cockroach, and a disgusting creature garbage.

Your civilization will be cleaned up by pests, eliminated from demons, and completely and systematically exterminated.

In the long run, under the long process of natural selection, or artificial selection, within the scope of human civilization, all civilizations that can survive as indigenous civilizations will naturally and without exception be 'human form'.

Ahem, it's far away, in short, Li Qingyun is also the first time to come to Youquan to return to the ruins, the scenery of this Yuanqiao Mountain is really different from Penglai Wonderland.

Out of the Xuanmen archway of 'Yuanqiao', just see a lonely mountain, there is a Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, the small courtyard of the name 'Yuanqiao Taishang to the true view', there is the ancestral temple and Danfang, the furnishings are the same as the Shangzhen Temple. And beyond the mountain......

Downpour! Splash down! Thunderstorm and Wind! Roar and roar! Dense raindrops, like iron swords and steel guns, poke at the face! Scarlet lightning jumped between the clouds, huge thunderballs of lightning, and thunderbolts roared, hitting the top of the mountain! The sea water set off a roaring wave, and hundreds of meters of water walls smashed into the face, from the sky to the sky! Boom with every hit! There was a bang! Hit the mountain base of Yuanqiao tremble! The mountains shake!

Even the turtle of Daishan shrank his head in the turtle shell, and he didn't dare to show it at all.

If it weren't for the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, exuding a peaceful and pure atmosphere, and calming Yuanqiao Mountain steadily, I am afraid that this mountain would have been beaten to pieces by the raging sea and raging waves, and it would have been cracked and overturned.

Li Qingyun pinched the trick and calculated silently, and released his divine sense to sense it, and he quickly comprehended the heavenly way of this realm.

This secluded spring is in ruins, very good!

It's really good! The Lingqi in this realm only has one vein, and it is also the top-level root water! Weak water in the deep spring! For cultivators, especially Penglai's secret method cultivation, that's the best!

Although it looked like a raging storm from the outside, as if it was besieged by a formation, and the weather was extremely bad, it was also because this realm had an unprecedented, abundant, and irritable spiritual power!

If the Void Star Sea is a pool of stagnant water, then the secluded spring is boiled and boiled!

The spiritual power is so pure and unclean, and it is full of activity! Even if it is a disciple with slightly inferior qualifications, he should be able to easily experience the sense of qi, and practice daily exhalation, and get twice the result with half the effort, no! 100 times more efficient! There is no need to take medicine at all, even if he usually runs around the mountain twice in the heavy rain, he can refine Qi at the same time!

Good! What a great place to practice!

Li Qingyun also rose up for a while, and as soon as he swung his figure, he showed the prototype of a hundred zhang, swam out along the mountain road, bathed in the baptism of thunder and rainstorm, surrounded Yuanqiao, and swam between the waves and tsunamis, only feeling comfortable physically and mentally, as if taking a hot bath, the meridians and qi of the whole body were cheering, and the muscles of the whole body were tempered and stretched under the thunder.

Ah, it's so cool, it's so cool~~~

"Don't break through here! Get down! ”

Teacher Xian snorted coldly, and Li Qingyun came back to his senses suddenly.

Uh, almost upgraded again, hold on......

After taking a shower, Li Qingyun also twisted his body, changed back into human form, and dived to the bottom of the sea.

At the foot of Yuanqiao Mountain, there is a bottomless and bottomless spring in the ruins.

The sect station chosen by Teacher Xian was the Heavenly Dao Lingshu of this realm, the eye of the storm of the Lingqi Vortex.

And Teacher Xian's body is now also in the core of the deep spring at the bottom of the sea, fusing and transforming the Heavenly Dao of this world.

After all, at the stage of Dao Ancestor, casually devouring the starry sky, even if it just exists, it may tear apart the starry wall, and it is not easy to find a place to stay.

It is different from the crude method of the Divine Sect that directly sacrifices blood, devours the Heavenly Dao, and refines the entire world into blood gods.

Xuanmen is more inclined to fit the Dao with his body, I am the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao is me, refining the Daluo Heavenly Dao into a clone of his own body. In this way, we can naturally shelter the disciples of this realm and inherit our Dao.

"Meet the teacher."

After all, Li Qingyun hadn't really cultivated to the realm of 'returning to the void', relying on the strength of the Candle Dragon Dao body, he dived into the darkness without light and shadow, until his Dao body was a little unbearable and couldn't bear the water pressure, so he bowed down.

When he raised his head, Teacher Xian also appeared silently in the darkness.

"Qingyun, there's something I want you to do."

"Please ask the teacher."

Teacher Xian made a gesture of his hand, and held out a black lotus platform in his palm.

"I will pass you a copy of the Black Lotus Sutra, and if you learn this method, you will go back to your dream and find someone for me.

This person betrayed my sect, stole my heavenly book, and switched to the Black Lotus Demon Sect. ”

Li Qingyun took the lotus platform with both hands, and there was an extra Qi refining method in his mind.

"Yes, but I don't know who this person's surname is, what he looks like, and I ask the teacher to show me ......"

Teacher Xian shook his head,

"He should be reincarnated in the past with the secret path of the Void Star Heavenly Book, the reincarnation of time and space. I don't know what it looks like in your dreams.

But as long as you run the Black Lotus Sutra, you will definitely be able to sense his existence, you just need to find his location, wake up and tell me. I've got my own plans. ”

"Obey the law."

Teacher Xian took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve and handed it over,

"You have already survived the catastrophe of death, and there are all the inheritance sects of the Heavenly Dao, and you can cultivate step by step.

This "Book of Heavenly Springs" is what I have obtained in my retreat in Guixu over the years, you should be able to practice it too, take it and read it. ”

"Thank you, teacher, for teaching the Fa!"

Teacher Xian stroked his beard and said,

"This book is against the principles of heaven, and if you practice in the world, you will be punished by heaven, and you must not be enlightened in the forbidden place of the Void Star Sea Sect.

After you 'refine your spirit and return to the void', then go to the Cosmos and Stars to find a suitable place to retreat and enlighten the Dao. ”

"Yes."

Li Qingyun bowed again, and when he raised his head again, there was only boundless darkness in front of him.

No wonder they wanted to call him to preach in front of him, didn't the law pass on the six ears, but Li Qingyun didn't expect that Teacher Xian would directly teach him the "Sutra" and "Book", and the preaching was actually from a foreign way.

After all, Li Qingyun has not yet reached the point where he can comprehend the "Book of Heaven", which is something that the "Refining Void" monks only have to consider when seeking the "Harmony of the Dao".

According to his current realm and cultivation that can be broken through at any time at the peak of the god transformation period, after 'refining the gods and returning to the void', he should major in the "Nine Yin True Sutra" and "Cutting the Evil Heart Sutra", and temper the candle vagina body and the Taishang Yuan Shen to the point of perfection, no flaws, and the physical body flies across and swims in the Taixu.

If it is combined with the screen-by-screen cultivation route designed by himself, and then cultivates an additional thunder method, after 'refining the gods and returning to the void', he can also integrate a few more thunder scriptures of the Taishang Dao, which can also increase the comprehension of the Heavenly Dao and supplement the diversity of damage.

However, the "Black Lotus Sutra" and "Youquan Heavenly Book" given by Teacher Xian are obviously not the secret transmission of the Taishang Dao, and they have nothing to do with the eight poles of the body of Candle Jiuyin.

Does renovating this kind of left path be regarded as falling into the side door and going astray?

Although Li Qingyun still has some doubts in his heart, the teacher's instructions must have deep meaning, not to mention that even if you refer to it, it is beneficial to touch the bypass.

So Li Qingyun surfaced, planning to follow the teacher's instructions first, comprehend the "Black Lotus Sutra", and then turn around and let Li Pan do the task of finding someone as a branch.

However, before he could continue to go back to Daiyu and practice in retreat, Li Qingyun was dragged by the person who came out of the Zhizhen Meditation head-on.

"Senior Brother Qingyun, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's really rare to meet you here, you must have two more drinks with me!"

"It turned out to be Senior Brother Sun, I haven't seen him for a long time, so I'm disrespectful."

Li Qingyun also recognized that this person was the senior brother of Taishang Xuanzhen Palace, Sun Chuantao of Yuanchen Mountain.

Back then, Li Qingyun had nothing to do to play around, and he was caught by him to help mark the papers. In this way, I am also familiar with each other, and occasionally we will drink a little wine together, exchange learning experiences, calculate scriptures, treasures of heaven and earth, and elixir spiritual fruits.

Eight hundred years have passed, Sun Chuantao is not a stupid person, of course he has also turned into a god, and he is quite good, now he is the elder of the sect of Yingzhou Xuanzhen Palace, this time it is also with the contribution of the sect, in exchange for a token, you can come to the secret realm of Yuanqiao to explore, collect treasures of heaven and earth.

Speaking of which, Taishang Jiuzhen Palace, except for a group of salted fish in Shangzhen Palace, dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water, and Zhizhen Palace also has to guard the secluded spring and return to the ruins, and the other palaces are ruthless.

Now the head of Jiuzhen is really in the same vein, occupying Penglai Mountain. Fang pot and Yingzhou are presided over by Lingzhen and Xuanzhen respectively.

The remaining naïve, true, too true, and high true four veins are crazy to fight for the position of the head of Daiyu Mountain.

In fact, if everyone holds a martial arts competition and compares with each other, Li Qingyun is not false at all.

But the acting head of the mountain sect is not just to enjoy the blessings, just put the resources of the sect into the storage bag. As the acting sect master, he will have to take responsibility after that, cultivate Dao seeds for the disciples of the sect to refine the alchemy and refining tools, provide various cultivation materials, and guide the cultivation method, there will definitely be no time to brush up on the questions and cultivate.

So Li Qingyun didn't even bother to be perfunctory. If you have this spare time, you might as well brush a few more papers.

Sun Chuantao is actually similar to him, compared to those who compete for alchemy and run for stewardship, he also helps to approve test papers, cultivate Dao seeds, and accumulate contributions for cultivation resources, mainly for his own cultivation, so he can also chat with Li Qingyun.

The Hidden Immortal Sect like them, who only cares about personal cultivation, is actually the vast majority of Penglai and even Xuanmen.

Unless it is a catastrophe of the sect, the task of the head of the sect is directly sent to the head, otherwise he usually stays at home and does his own thing, and it is easy not to get out of the customs without crossing the catastrophe. Not bothered to socialize unnecessarily.

After all, what is there to socialize, who knows that after a few years, decades, and hundreds of years, these fox friends and dog friends, Taoist relatives will still be there.

The avenue is ruthless, and most of those who can really attain the Tao are indeed ruthless people.

So the two of them went to the living room of Zhenguan to sit temporarily, ate a few glasses of water and wine, Sun Chuantao was too lazy to socialize uselessly, and said straight to the point,

"Senior brother, in fact, Sun Mou came here to find some natural treasures to make magic weapons and deal with the thunder tribulation.

It's just that when I first came to this secret realm, I saw the Zhenqi riot and the storm, and I wanted to ask my junior brother to accompany me and help me. ”

"I see, senior brother, just rest assured, I will accompany you and protect the Fa for you."

Li Qingyun naturally understands it, the aging god has passed the thunder tribulation, it is all cautious, after all, he offended the way of heaven, accidentally missed, was split half to death without mentioning, the carefully refined magic weapon was destroyed, the elixir that put him to protect the body was exhausted, and even the meridians were damaged, and he might be seriously injured for hundreds of years from now on, and he couldn't repair it at all.

Therefore, when most people encounter this kind of calamity, they don't dare to act rashly at all, usually they mobilize the power of connections, invite the good hands of the sect to help them block, and easily dare not do it themselves, for fear of causing some calamity and being damaged, and the next thunder will not be able to withstand it.

Of course, there are also a small number of people who wish that all the calamities would be spent together......

Li Qingyun is a small part of the side, and he is even happy to take the initiative to help Senior Brother Sun block the thunder.

And Sun Chuantao thought that he was going to pull it, and take some pills or magic weapons out to exchange, he never imagined that Qingyun's junior brother would be so righteous, so he had to give it, and the two of them shirked and pulled for a while, and finally Li Qingyun couldn't refuse, so he asked for thousands of catties of firewood......

So Li Qingyun soared through the clouds, released the Qinglian Zhenqi protective body, protected Sun Chuantao by his side, and flew out of Yuanqiao with him, and went straight to the storm.

The thunderstorm in this realm is indeed powerful, even if Li Qingyun's foundation is solid and his cultivation is profound, and the thirty-six blue lotus petals are overlapped, repeatedly, endlessly, he is still hit by the thunderstorm, and it takes more than twenty years in a row to withstand it, which is indeed a bit choking if he changes to an ordinary god cultivator.

It's no wonder that the teacher didn't sign the sect to join the sect, although this place is suitable for cultivation, but if you don't turn into a god, you can't withstand this environment at all, and you don't need to cultivate here if you break through the god, so you highlight an embarrassment......

But being idle is also idle, just after receiving the task of the sect, Li Qingyun also took the opportunity to inquire with Sun Chuantao about the secrets of the Black Lotus Sect.

I don't know why, Sun Chuantao is also like a slur, as if he doesn't want to, or dare not talk to him about this topic. But after all, this time he got Li Qingyun's Dharma protector and owed favors, so after hesitating, Sun Chuantao still said.

"I only heard that the Black Lotus Demon Sect is a side branch of the Demon Mountain, and most of the worshippers are the beast mother Dao ancestors of the six ancestors of the Demon Mountain, and the details of it are really not clear.

However, if you talk about the Demon Mountain Beast Mother Dao, this sect's exercise method essence channel body changes, there are forty-nine ways to change, there are forty-nine lives to prevent disasters and avoid disasters, and practice the Dao body, even if the Sword Sect has to kill them, it has to be forty-nine times to get rid of them.

As for the traitors I teach...... I only know that in the Black Lotus Demon Sect, there is indeed a genius who stole the secret "Blue Lotus Jue" in my door, and created a "Black Lotus Sutra", which is the first body protection method of the Demon Mountain Dao, and when cultivating to the high depths, even the Sword Sect is difficult to deal with.

In addition, most of the people in this magic mountain act quite strangely, do their own way, are arrogant and untamable, and are the best at destroying humanity. The junior brother wants to fight against them, and when fighting the method, you must be careful that the other party uses the secret technique of the left path to secretly attack, and it is not a big deal otherwise. ”

Li Qingyun was confused when he heard it,

"Why is it that the Sword Sect is difficult to deal with for a while, and it is worth it for a while?

Senior brother, so is this person from the Demon Mountain powerful, or is it not powerful? ”

Sun Chuantao thought about it,

"The Magic Mountain is different from my Xuanmen, there are no classes, the good and the bad are uneven, so the vast majority of what can be encountered are trash fish that can be wiped out, but there are indeed a very few old demons among them, insidious and cunning, scheming, and quite difficult.

The most important thing is that they not only have many disciples and grandchildren, but also have many lives, and they can withstand killing, and these demons are on the left side of the door, 'Merge Dao' is very easy, 'Dao Ancestor' is very many, and they can press my Xuanmen at one end, so if we really want to fight together, we have to gather the people of Yuntai, and it is very troublesome to clean up. ”

Oh, because it's the left way, it's easier to 'merge the way'. I understand, there is a lot of blood and life, and it presses you to a realm, and it is difficult to collect no matter how much food you have.

However, talking about the strength and weakness of the three major factions, Li Qingyun couldn't help but be curious,

"That's more than God...... How does it compare to the methods of the Blood Demon Sect? ”

Sun Chuantao also said that,

"Before practicing Qi and transforming the gods, it is naturally more powerful for the blood gods, and after refining the gods and returning to the void, they may be able to compete."

Well, so the implication is that after refining the gods and returning to the void, they can chase the Xuanmen who killed the gods indiscriminately.

In this way, the three major factions are indeed quite distinctive, the early stage of the Demon Sect, the late stage of the Demon Gate, the early stage of the Demon Mountain is weak, the middle stage gradually catches up, and the later stage is the easiest to break through.

In this way, the three parties have their own strong periods and weak periods, and they know each other well, and it is indeed difficult to distinguish between them.

During the chat, Li Qingyun and Sun Chuantao also went deep into the Youquan Sea area, and soon came to the opportunity he had calculated.

This is an underwater city with a dark spring sea devil.

As I said before, convergent evolution.

Most of these indigenous sea devil fish people have gray dark green scales, gray-white bellies, fine scales, and look like they have a smooth and slimy body, a high ridge with scales on their backs, a vague humanoid feature on their torso, a head closer to that of a fish, huge raised eyeballs without eyelids, and trembling gills, which are unusually ugly and terrifying deep-sea fish. If the company's fish-people evolved from shark genes, then the ancestors of these fish-people are probably anglerfish......

Ugly is ugly, these Youquan Fishmen are obviously also wise, judging from the huge coral, shell, and rocky underwater cities around them, this organization has surpassed ordinary communities or tribes, at least it is also a city-state level civilization.

These fish-men can control and communicate with other sea creatures in some way like brain waves, and can craft weapons and equipment from fish bones, stones, lobster shells, and the like. Take control of giant sea beasts such as whales to transport goods and trade them with currencies such as pearl shells.

In the case of humanoid natives, it is still understandable. But......

Li Qingyun's divine sense swept through the city, and he didn't see any genius earth treasures, or this place was so full of spiritual qi, he was afraid that it could be regarded as a genius earth treasure everywhere, so he couldn't help but ask curiously,

"I don't know what the opportunity is, senior brother?"

Sun Chuantao smiled, "It's not all. ”

He grabbed a fishman casually, rubbed the flesh and bones into powder with a rub of his hand, and finally only left the fish skull, a round ball with pearls like white light, and handed it to Li Qingyun to see.

"This is the best Xuanming Demon Pill, the Youquan is blessed with a unique place, and the spiritual base is pure. These demons are a little ugly, but they are also primates who were born and raised, conceived into spirits, and loved by the Heavenly Dao. Their essence and soul, where the essence is, are gathered here, and they are just used for refining.

In fact, my Xuanmen alchemy method is best at refining demon pills. It's a pity that the demon clan of thirty-six days has already been killed and wiped out. There are only some rare birds and beasts left in the sect, which need to be raised and taken from materials, and cannot be moved lightly.

Fortunately, now that Daozu has developed a secluded spring to return to the ruins, as long as I collect 100,000 demon pills, I can refine a Dinghai Divine Pearl, ward off evil spirits and protect the body, and only a few heavenly thunders, what can I do! Hahaha! I also asked my junior brother to protect the Dharma for me for three days, and I will set up a formation to refine this pool of demons. ”

Alas, too, after all, are we also the Demon Gate......
