Chapter 67: True and False, Take It All
The Moon Dragon also didn't know what the cause of the battle between Qingluan Immortal Venerable and the Seven Peerless Realm Lords was.
But the bosses of both camps gave an order, and the war began.
In fact, it is no different from the normal logic of war - early temptation, gradual advancement, slowly encroaching on strategic points and resource points, and seeking opportunities to kill key people in the opposing camp.
"The Great War has lasted for countless years, and countless star fields have been destroyed."
"In the end, when the decisive battle came, I don't know what the plans of Qingluan Immortal Venerable and the Seven Peerless Realm Lords were, and placed the decisive battlefield in the remote Guchen Star Domain."
The four words of Guchen Star Domain made the three Martial Saints a little dazed.
As natives, they don't quite understand the concepts of planets and star fields.
It was Lu Ming who thought of the words of divine wisdom at that time.
At this moment, with the testimony of the Moon Dragon, the location of the main world was determined, which was called the Guchen Star Field.
And listen to Yuelong continued: "The result of this battle, I heard that it was the victory of the Immortal Venerable, and the death of the Realm Lord. β
Ling Xiu suddenly spoke: "It is indeed Immortal Venerable who won." β
Seeing that Yuelong already knew everything and said everything, Ling Xiu, as a prisoner, naturally had to behave and save himself from being soaked in a dung pit......
"When the old man died, the battle between the Immortal Venerable and the Realm Lord had ended, and the Immortal Venerable had indeed won, and the Seven Peerless Realm Lord's Martial Seals had collapsed and fallen into this realm."
Speaking of this, Ling Xiu also lamented his unlucky fate.
At that time, the old man was blinded by lard, thinking about how precious the martial seal of the realm lord was? He decisively killed his opponent and descended to this realm, wanting to take the fire and take away the martial seal of the realm master, but he never thought that the martial seal seemed to carry a remnant spirit, and immediately went deep into the ground and disappeared after falling into this realm. β
The old man thought to himself, can this be endured? This must not be bearable, so he resolutely chased Wu Yin to the ground......"
As he spoke, Ling Xiu's tone lowered.
"The old man searched for several years, but to no avail, but he couldn't give up easily."
Ling Xiu was an immortal monarch before his death, and his longevity was unlimited, and he had time to find the martial seal left by this realm lord, so of course it was impossible to stop there.
On the side, Yuelong smiled, quite gloating.
"Then this guy ran into the matter of the Immortal Venerable changing the realm."
Immortal Venerable changed the realm, sealed the rules of evil qi, created the rules of the immortal path, reshaped the spiritual veins of the world, and changed the heavens and the earth.
And speaking of this process, Ling Xiu naturally had more right to speak: "At that time, the Immortal Venerable changed the realm, causing the tides of heaven and earth, and the remains of the first-rank martial artists or immortal immortals who died on the battlefield around them were dragged and fell into this realm. β
"Then the Immortal Venerable set up the Heavenly Lock and suppressed the evil qi rules underground, and along with them, the corpses of those who died on the battlefield, as well as unlucky people like me."
Under the power of the Immortal Venerable Realm Transformation, the Lingxiu Immortal Monarch who was located underground died inexplicably, and his body was directly crushed by the rules of heaven and earth, leaving only his head intact.
"And then after an unknown number of years of evolution, our group of people turned into ghost cultivators under the nourishment of the rules of evil qi."
It is a fluke to be able to live again.
But new problems have arisen.
"Due to the existence of the Heavenly Lock, we old ghosts can't leave the underground and appear on the surface, once they appear on the surface, they will be immediately suppressed by the rules of heaven and earth, and there will be no return."
"Not even a doppelganger, a divine thought."
"And because this realm is not the kind of savage world in ancient times, after the Immortal Venerable changed the realm, the rules of this realm were perfected, making it impossible to accommodate the existence of immortals, so our cultivation can only be stuck in the Mahayana period, and there is no possibility of continuing to be promoted at all."
Ghost cultivation is already difficult.
In addition, it can only be cowered underground.
And underground spiritual materials are scarce......
came and went, the cultivation of this group of ghost cultivators couldn't go up or down, and the ghost cultivators had a long lifespan, as well as the nourishment of the damaged immortal body, and the longevity was also almost infinite.
In this way, the scenery of the current underground ghost country has been formed.
ββA group of old ghosts who have no hope of dying in the future, just underground in front of the shrunken shell king, they can't do anything, just live for the sake of living.
"But not so long ago, the situation changed again."
Yuelong said: "The change comes from Li Shentong. β
"This person is the descendant of the Qingluan Immortal Sect, and he has mastered many secrets of the Qingluan Immortal Sect, and even self-transformed into a ghost cultivator, passing through the Heavenly Lock, and is not bound by the Heavenly Lock, and is free on the ground and down the ground."
Ling Xiu added: "What's even more commendable is that Li Shentong has already obtained the realm core, and has turned to martial arts as a doppelganger, and is devouring the realm. β
This sentence, Ping Ge and Tan Chao, who arrived later, didn't quite understand.
The martial saint clenched his fists unconsciously.
For all the people of this realm, it is a great disaster for someone to devour the realm.
"But we're not citizens of this realm."
After Yuelong said this with a smile, Ling Xiu immediately retorted: "This is not necessarily, theoretically speaking, we are ghosts now, and we are indeed born in this world, nourished and nourished by the rules of this world......"
"No, we can't be counted as the people of this realm, our roots are still on the companion immortal body."
"I think so."
As he spoke, Yuelong and Lingxiu quarreled.
There is no precedent for this matter before, and no one knows if these old ghosts are considered to be citizens of this realm......
Therefore, this group of old ghosts is not monolithic, and the focus of the contradiction lies in this matter.
It was the Martial Saint who spoke.
"Li Shentong has reached an agreement with you, you help him devour the realm, and after he succeeds, he will naturally open the heavenly lock and let you out."
"In addition, it is possible that you are not from this realm, even if Li Shentong succeeds in devouring the realm, there will be no loss."
Strength in exchange for freedom.
It's a real deal worth it.
Hearing this, Yuelong and Lingxiu ended their quarrel and nodded at the same time, "That's it. β
Wu Sheng said again: "Then did Li Shentong say a follow-up plan?" β
"That's not true, but I guess it's nothing more than waiting until the world's counterattack intensifies, and then we will burrow into the ground ourselves, and we will protect it."
It looks simple, but it actually works!
Of course, the underground is also part of the main world, but this group of old ghosts is most likely not part of this world, so the world does not have them.
When the world's anti-devouring strength was strengthened, Li Shentong took the realm core to drill into the ground, and there was this group of ghost cultivators who also had their own immortal bodies in the Mahayana period, even if they were immortals, they could maneuver around one or two.
And when the devouring realm is over, everything will naturally settle, and Li Shentong will become a general trend - after annexing the main world, with Li Shentong's strength, he will not necessarily be afraid of the immortals of the descending realm.
Lu Ming's face was expressionless when he heard this, but he secretly said that he was lucky in his heart.
Fortunately, I came into contact with this group of ghost cultivators in advance......
Otherwise, after Li Shentong burrows into the ground, there may be no room for recovery.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming opened his mouth and asked again.
"Now what do you think about Li Shentong's devouring realm?"
Yuelong immediately replied: "Boss Yuan Zheng thinks that he can help Li Shentong devour the realm, and this matter is done, and they will be free." β
Ling Xiu: "Boss Shunyu thinks that this matter is inappropriate, Li Shentong has become a problem, and we have to suffer with it, after all, we are still not sure, whether we are local people now." β
"And Sister Andan swayed from side to side, and her attitude was not resolute."
Three names, representing three factions.
It also means that the opinions within this group of ghost cultivators are not unanimous.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming smiled: "Then I think, we need to discuss it." β
β¦β¦
Just as Lu Ming thought.
There is a real need for the two sides to discuss.
Multiple choices are never a bad thing.
Deep underground, in the middle of an open space.
Even the nominal leader of this group of ghost cultivators, Yuan Zheng, was inclined to negotiate with Lu Ming and see what else was going on.
After all, Li Shentong is not his father, so it makes no sense that Li Shentong is what he says.
Although Yuan Zheng felt that Li Shentong's method was feasible, when another method was in front of him, it was not wrong to give it a try after all.
After the discussion, the group of ghosts looked at Zhang Hai, Yang Zhi and the others.
An Dan snorted coldly: "Life is good, thank you for having a good boss." β
Hearing this, Zhang Hai's face did not change, and he could not be moved by life or death.
On the contrary, Yang Zhi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and the voices of the seven elders in his heart were still continuous.
"It shouldn't be...... How can this matter of turning immortals into ghosts so easy? β
It may be a lack of memory.
It may be that the Seven Elders also don't understand the principles and means of Immortal Venerable's realm change.
I just vaguely feel that the situation in front of me is a little against common sense......
"There are no wonders in the world, didn't Brother Lu also take out a divine object such as the Flower on the Other Side?" Yang Zhi retorted like this in his heart, and the seventh elder was silent.
After all, it's just a remnant soul, and his memory is incomplete, and after he woke up, he has been shocked by Lu Ming too many times in a row, and it doesn't seem so strange to see something strange at this moment.
β¦β¦
Seven days later, at the entrance to the underground ghost country.
Lu Ming and the others, who were meditating on their knees, suddenly opened their eyes and looked ahead.
The ghost aura ahead is shaky, and the ghost fire is rising.
With the sound of crisp footsteps, several ghosts came together.
The first three are Yuan Zheng, Shun Yu, and An Dan.
Lu Ming looked at a few people.
Yuan Zheng's body was intact, but his face was tinged with a strange pale.
His facial features are upright, his face is more than two meters tall, and he is wearing a set of damaged armor, which looks like a battle-hardened god of war.
Yuan Zheng was a peak martial artist before his death, and he had already condensed the Heaven and Earth Law Body, and his martial arts strength was overwhelming.
Even after death, the golden body is still incorruptible, and even maintains the physical strength of its peak.
Its immortal path cultivation is also in the early stage of Mahayana, but with its complete first-grade peak martial artist golden body, even if it can't burst out of its unbounded power in this realm, this realm has no means to break through its body defenses.
ββIt is no exaggeration to say that this ghost Yuan Zheng is not invincible, but it is naturally invincible in this world.
No one can break his martial arts golden body.
It's a pity that it is a caged bird after all, and it cannot be liberated.
Nodding at Yuan Zheng, Yuan Zheng faintly noticed that a trace of excitement flashed in Lu Ming's eyes.
The light flashed away, Yuan Zheng only thought it was an illusion, and Lu Ming had already looked at Shun Yu.
This person was a person of the Qingluan Immortal Zun line before his death, and he cultivated as the Immortal King, and he was one of the powerful generals under the command of Qingluan Immortal Zun.
And after the fall, Shunyu's residual body strength was not as high as Yuan Zheng's, and his strength after turning into a ghost was also much weaker than Yuan Zheng's - of course, at this moment, Shunyu's ghost-transformed immortal path cultivation was also in the early stage of Mahayana.
Its legs are broken, but they are condensed with ghost qi, but the limbs condensed by ghost qi in the Mahayana period coexist with the immortal body, which brings a strong sense of contrast and disobedience.
Seeing Lu Ming's gaze sweeping, Shun Yu nodded to Lu Ming, and his attitude seemed to be good.
ββAs a person under the former Qingluan Immortal Venerable, Shun Yu's attitude towards martial arts has not been very good, and Li Shentong wants to return their freedom by devouring the world, which has attracted Shun Yu's disgust......
But the antipathy won't be strong.
But after having another choice, it is clear which side Sunny prefers.
An Dan is even more broken, and the remnants are also the relics of the Immortal King, and his strength is definitely slightly weaker than the first two.
And the ghosts after the three of them are probably immortals and true immortals, and the degree of body damage is different, but it is not worth discussing one by one.
Seeing the ghosts coming, Lu Ming got up and gave his hand.
"In the lower three phases to help Lu Ming, I have met all the seniors."
Lu Ming's attitude was good, and it also invisibly eased the previous hostile atmosphere between the two sides.
Yuan Zheng and the others naturally had no reason to have any bad attitude.
With a wave of Shunyu's hand, the power of the ghost domain flashed, and more than ten ghost warriors such as Zhang Hai and Yang Zhi appeared in the open space not far away.
"Let's change the hostages first."
Lu Ming also sent the Moon Dragon Lingxiu and the ghost thing in the late stage of the merger to the open space, and the men on both sides returned to their camps, and suddenly a miserable scream disappeared in a flash.
But it was Shun Yu who suddenly made a move and directly tore apart the ghost cultivator in the late stage of the merger.
All the ghosts present were expressionless.
It's just because the ghost in the late stage of the merger is not a person from both sides, but is directly controlled by Li Shentong.
Today's matter, no matter what the outcome is, must not be known to Li Shentong, so the moment the idea of negotiation arises, the fate of this combined ghost cultivator is already doomed.
"Now we can have a good talk."
After Yuan Zheng finished saying this, the power of the ghost domain also flashed through his body.
"Come in and talk, it's safe and confidential."
Lu Ming nodded and smiled, and led people into it without any scruples.
So soon, except for Zhang Hai, Yang Zhi and others, the scene became empty.
β¦β¦
Yuan Zheng's ghost domain has been carefully arranged.
The spacious meeting room is brightly lit and the walls are gilded and the gemstones set in them sparkle throughout.
The setting shows Yuan Zheng's attitude - he also attaches great importance to this negotiation.
Lu Ming Shi Ran sat in the guest seat, and when everyone sat down, Yuan Zheng immediately spoke.
"The law of demarcation will not solve the problems we face."
"A long time ago, Qingluan Immortal Venerable changed the realm and suppressed the evil qi rules of this realm with the Heavenly Lock, and we were born because of evil, and even cultivated all the way unimpeded, reaching the early Mahayana ......"
"But it's a trap."
The immortal qi will also be born in the body of the Mahayana ghost cultivator, and this immortal qi is born due to the rules of evil qi, which is equivalent to binding Yuan Zheng and others under the heavenly lock, and they will never be able to get out of trouble.
It is impossible for the demarcation technique to shake the rules set by the Immortal Venerable.
This is a dead end.
Hearing this, Lu Mingden smiled and said, "Then how can you be sure that you are not from this realm now?" β
Born out of evil, bound to this world.
After Li Shentong devoured the realm, he could still run away from you?
Shun Yu slapped the table and immediately interjected: "So I have always disapproved of cooperating with Li Shentong. β
Yuan Zheng sighed: "The problem is that apart from fighting this possibility, we have no other way to break the game." β
To put it bluntly, helping Li Shentong is a way that is not a solution, because they don't have a better choice.
Therefore, when Lu Ming proposed to negotiate, Yuan Zheng and the others had no objections, and they did not play any careful thinking - they really needed another possibility.
Even if there is little hope, you have to try.
After a moment of silence, Lu Ming spoke again: "Actually, I think that my demarcation method should be effective and can solve the problems you are facing. β
As he spoke, Lu Ming took out two things from the acceptance ring.
One thing is the Ghost Domain Dan.
The other thing is the flower of the other side.
Throwing the Ghost Domain Pill in front of Yuan Zheng, Shun Yu and Andan, Lu Ming said quietly while stroking the flower in his hand.
"The Ghost Domain Dan should be familiar with it."
The ghosts nodded.
They have the Ghost Domain, and naturally they have taken the Ghost Domain Pill.
"The raw material of this Dan is this flower in the hands of a certain family."
As he spoke, he also threw the flower to everyone.
Yuan Zheng looked at the other side of the flower carefully, and quickly nodded: "It is indeed the raw material of the Ghost Domain Pill, and the demarcation rules contained in it are exactly the same." β
"And with this flower, it is not difficult to complete the art of demarcation."
The art of demarcation is not uncommon in the eyes of Dharma body martial artists and immortal kings like Yuan Zheng, with the memory of previous experience, when Lu Ming took out the flower on the other side, several people naturally determined in their minds that Lu Ming had indeed mastered a method of demarcation.
"But the problem is the same as I said before, the law of demarcation will not solve our current predicament."
Lu Ming smiled again and leaned back on the chair in a comfortable position.
"I'm sure it works."
"Because if the scale of this flower is large enough to form a sea of flowers, then you can perform a secret technique to activate the second function of this flower."
Saying this, Lu Ming's eyes narrowed, and he said word by word: "The function of cross-border!" β
Yuan Zheng, Shun Yu and the others glanced at each other, and Wu Sheng and the others also looked at Lu Ming with surprise.
"Crossover function?" Yuan Zheng frowned and spoke.
Lu Ming bowed his head slightly: "Yes, it is a cross-border function." β
"As long as this flower forms a scale, it has a cross-border effect. It's just that this cross-border effect may be one-way, so a certain family has not dared to try it, for fear that it will not be able to come back if it crosses the line. β
"But I think it's better for all of you here to be teleported into an extremely dangerous world than to be trapped in this realm, right?"
At this moment, Lu Ming talked eloquently, showing the skill of flickering.
And this is obviously the plan that Lu Ming made early on!
β¦β¦
The demarcation rules contained in the flowers on the other side are true, but the cross-border rules are pure nonsense.
But the other side of the flower does not have cross-border ability, Lu Ming has!
The moment he knew the essence of Yuan Zheng and the others, a thought rose from Lu Ming's heart.
This is a great opportunity!
A chance to count them all in one fell swoop!
At present, Lu Ming is facing only one problem.
Li Shentong devoured the problem of the realm.
And this problem has given rise to several side problems.
Li Shentong wants to devour the boundary, Lu Ming must stop it, and if he can't stop it, he has to find a way to get out of the boundary.
The law of detachment is divided into two parts - the method of demarcation and the method of detachment.
Lu Ming has the demarcation method, Lu Ming does not have the demarcation method, and that method is in the demon court realm.
And if you want to demarcate the border, you have to plant a large number of other flowers, the underground ghost country is an excellent garden, but with this group of Li Shentong's allies, it is difficult for Lu Ming to advance this plan.
- You can't maintain hostile relations and plant flowers under their noses, right? Don't forget that there is a monitoring formation underground.
So Lu Ming thought of an idea.
"I sent you out of this realm, you were freed, and I weakened Li Shentong's power."
There is another sentence that Lu Ming didn't say......
I'll send you to the Demon Court Realm, and you will have a fight with the Lord of the Demon Court, and the water will be mixed up as much as possible, and I will also be in the fire.
After Lu Ming finished speaking, Yuan Zheng and the others immediately looked at each other, and had huge doubts about the truth of Lu Ming's words......
Can this really be done?
Didn't you see any cross-border rules from this flower on the other side?
Of course, it may also be that he and the others are not at the peak after all, only the early stage of Mahayana cultivation, and it is normal not to see the strangeness of the divine flower, but I always feel that Lu Ming's words are mysterious and mysterious...... There is a sense of flickering.
But Lu Ming didn't panic.
Just because of this game, he has no chance of losing.
With his hands spread, Lu Ming said simply.
"You bet on Li Shentong, and bet that you are not the people of this world now."
"You all dare to bet like this, so why don't you bet on my method?"
"Now in this underground, you are in charge. There are still formations you have arranged in the walls, and if I take a step back, you can fully supervise the progress of this matter, and when the sea of flowers forms a scale, you will naturally know whether what I said is true or false. β
An Dan thought about it and couldn't help asking.
"But if your intention to plant flowers is not to help us cross the border to get out of trouble, but to have ulterior motives to murder our ......"
Halfway through speaking, he shook his head.
Don't talk about Yuan Zheng and Shunyu, let's just say that she is An Dan herself, with the remnants of the immortal king, in the middle world.
She's not afraid of any murder at all......
If you want to talk about murder, at this moment, An Dan feels that Li Shentong's devouring realm is more harmful to her - if they belong to the people of this realm now, then after Li Shentong completes devouring the realm, they know better than anyone what will happen.
Yuan Zheng thought about it and said, "The effect of cross-border is still an unknown world on the other side...... That's a bit risky. β
Shun Yu's eyes were already full of light: "It's better than being swallowed by a martial artist into the inner world." β
"Or you can be trapped here, and you can't survive or die."
"What's more, betting on Li Shentong's side is a gamble, and betting on Lu Ming's side is also a gamble, I don't think there's any problem with the two-pronged approach."
Divine thoughts are extended and exchanged rapidly.
In just a few breaths, everyone was unanimous.
"It's possible, but it's all under our supervision."
Lu Ming nodded: "Not only that, but I am also going to hand over the task of planting flowers to you, the flowers on the other side need to be nourished by ghosts, I see that you have nothing to do, why don't you handle this matter yourself, what do you think?" β
The group of ghosts immediately breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in unison.
Lu Ming's attitude was correct, and the operation process was handed over to them to deal with, obviously without any bad intentions.
Lu Ming chuckled.
Well, now even the ghost slaves are alive......
