Chapter 340: Starry Heavenly Pool
Recently, due to the successive breakthroughs of Yuanying, the "big brother" who is full of "ZTE hope" is a little dizzy at the moment.
Lian Ziling used to "control the news, report good news but not bad news", and recently, for his own selfishness, he did not hesitate to choose to let the entire Star Palace take the blame.
The "senior brother" is undoubtedly very angry about these extremely selfish behaviors of the "third junior brother".
In the past, Lian Ziling was very confident in his ability and conduct because he was too well disguised.
As a result, the entire Star Palace, including him, was ignorant of the great changes in the outside world, until the fire burned to his eyebrows, and there was no way to avoid it, and then he suddenly saw the truth, which made him look like a stupid and incompetent fool.
It also put the entire Star Palace in a very embarrassing situation.
But what about the anger?
Lian Ziling's breakthrough through Yuanying has become a fact, even if he breaks through two years earlier, the strength of both sides is also in the middle of the match.
Even if he wanted to deal with the other party, he was powerless at all.
Moreover, with his age and even more outstanding talent on the path of cultivation, his future future in the Yuan Ying is likely to be above himself.
Perhaps now, it is already the period when he has the most advantage in facing Lian Ziling.
You can't just ignore it and go straight to a civil war, right?
Therefore, although he was extremely angry in his heart, in the face of Lian Ziling, who said "I am at fault" but had a calm face on his face, the "senior brother" still chose to forgive after some difficult self-guidance.
After a long silence, he looked at Lian Ziling and said slowly:
"What do you think?"
He thought very clearly, with Lian Ziling's "thoughtfulness", since he chose to have a showdown with himself today, he should have a comprehensive consideration in his heart.
Although Lian Ziling has personally ruined the character of his own business in the door for many years, he still trusts his ability very much.
Faced with the inquiry of the "senior brother", Lian Ziling said:
"It's time for the Star Palace to come out again, and in two or three years, we really can't afford to wait.
However, you can't really rush out unprepared.
Since it has been 183 years and 8 months since we closed the mountain, let's simply put together a whole and set the day when the lockdown will be lifted on the day when the 184th anniversary will be completed.
In this way, we have four months to prepare. β
"In these four months, on the one hand, we have to establish a closer connection with those eyeliners outside, and those who have dived deeper can also be awakened.
First, let them collect more information for us, so that when we go out of the mountain, our understanding of the outside world is still one or two hundred years ago, and our eyes will be blackened.
Another one, let them be active in advance, this can also be regarded as throwing stones to ask for directions, testing the ability of those scattered cultivation forces who steal from the top positions, as well as the hidden forces such as the Divorce Sect with ill intentions.
No matter whether the result is good or bad, we can take this opportunity to understand and prevent in advance. β
"Senior Brother" listened carefully and nodded slightly.
"It's external, and on the other hand, it's internal."
Speaking of this, Lian Ziling's calm expression also became solemn.
He looked at the "senior brother" and said softly:
"This nearly two hundred years of self-defense has had an all-round impact on our Star Palace.
Not to mention those who practice qi and build the foundation, counting from before the closure of the mountain, it has changed two or three generations now.
Without the continuous blood transfusion from the outside world, all the people can only dig in the sea of stars, and the overall quality has declined greatly.
It's not just talent that's missing, it's also mentality, vision and experience.
The group of cultivators who went up to the end of the Dan were basically the mountain gates that they entered before the closure of the Star Palace, and their situation was better on the whole.
But the reality is that this is the weakest link in all our strengths.
On the one hand, the most elite and top group of our people in the Jiedan Realm have suffered great losses in the nearly two hundred years of mountain closure. β
Speaking of this, Lian Ziling shook his head lightly with a sigh.
The expressions of "Senior Brother" and "Second Senior Sister" are also a little unsightly, with nostalgia, regret, and happiness, and their expressions are very complicated.
Ask yourself, looking at the nearly two hundred years since the closure of the Star Palace, they dare not say that it is the "most essence" and "the top".
It can only be said that they are the luckiest.
This time, it has been nearly two hundred years since the Star Palace closed the mountain, and there are too many good seedlings that have been damaged under the Heavenly Tribulation.
Some of them directly knocked themselves to pieces, and their gods were destroyed.
Although some of them barely saved their lives, they were all crushed in terms of "essence", "qi", and "spirit" when they failed to survive the tribulation.
I have no ability to come back, and I don't have the heart to come back.
Now, after being held back for nearly two hundred years, there are four Jiedans who have broken through the Yuan Infant one after another, and it seems that they have accumulated a lot of money and bottomed out.
But if you take a closer look, you can find that between the four new Yuanying and Jiedan, there is a "gap" that is getting bigger and more empty.
Yuan Ying is of course the decisive force, but it is impossible for the four Yuan Babies to deal with the next situation alone.
Yutan is their most important assistant and mainstay.
In this ring, a huge fault appeared in the Nakshatra Palace.
ββ¦β¦ On the other hand, the closure of the mountain for nearly two hundred years has made them too comfortable.
If I open the mountain gate unprepared and let them face the fellow Daoists outside, I am really afraid that they will be hammered up. β
The two of them, who were still regretting a moment ago, suddenly became solemn at this moment.
Although Lian Ziling's words were very harsh and harsh, in the cognition of the people of the Star Palace, they were always the only ones who were domineering and looked down on other monks!
But now, it's different.
On the one hand, the most elite and top-notch group of the Star Palace in the Jiedan Realm has too much "consumption" on the threshold of impacting the Yuan Infant.
And in the comfortable life that has lasted for nearly two hundred years, everyone's first priority is to improve their cultivation, and then go to the level like a moat.
Subjectively, they do not have the urgency and necessity to increase their combat effectiveness.
Objectively, they also lack the necessary external stimuli and environmental influences.
During the closure of the Star Palace, the resources for improving cultivation were not only in open supply, but also the easiest time to obtain, easier than any other time.
Because the fundamental purpose of the mountain closure is to "use resources to pile out a pillar in a certain period of time".
Allocating time and energy to combat and killing skills is a failure to see the general trend and putting the cart before the horse.
Under various factors, it is inevitable that the combat effectiveness of Brother Jiedan will decline.
The situation in the outside world is the opposite.
Whether it was the resurgence of the Lihate Sect, or the expansion of other hidden forces, or the endless slaughter of those scattered cultivators in order to compete for and defend the ownership of the spiritual vein, this had in fact improved the actual combat ability of those Jiedan monks.
It can be said that none of the monks who have been able to rise in the nearly two hundred years when the Star Palace has closed the mountain and stand until now are easy to match.
Regardless of the future potential, just talking about the comparison of strength at the level of the Jiedan, the Star Palace will definitely not be able to bargain at all.
The old sorrow has not gone, and the "senior brother" who has added new sorrow is depressed in his heart, and he glanced at the "culprit" in front of him, and he couldn't help but ask for advice:
"What can you do about it?"
Lian Ziling shook his head and said:
"If that's the case, what can I do?
You can't expect me to come up with an idea to turn this around, can you? β
The moment the words came out, the "senior brother" knew that he was "frivolous", but when he really heard this answer, he couldn't help but sigh.
"However, it cannot be said that we will do nothing without thinking of a way to turn the situation around.
In the last four months, we must pay close attention to the actual combat ability. β
"The tradition in the door, the same door likes to point to the end, and it is rare to see blood."
"My opinion is that this tradition should be thrown away for the time being.
In order to make them really urgent, we might as well do the opposite and stipulate a few death quotas! β
Death places?!
As soon as these words came out, the two of them were stunned again.
The "Second Senior Sister" couldn't help but say, "This ...... Isn't it too ruthless? β
Lian Ziling said: "Senior sister, if you have other good ways, of course it is better." β
"Uh......" and "Second Senior Sister" were so blocked by these words that they had nothing to say.
She certainly couldn't come up with a better solution.
Four months seems to be a lot of time, but if you want to significantly improve the actual combat ability of a monk with Jiedan, there is no difference between it and "blink of an eye".
The time is short, the task is heavy, and although the "death persecution" is too crude and impersonal, it is the most effective and the most likely to achieve substantive results.
So, she chose to keep her mouth shut.
"Senior Brother" slowly spoke: "Okay, I agree in principle to this matter, but I still have to inform Senior Sister Lin." β
As he spoke, he looked at Lian Ziling and asked, "Do you have any other suggestions?" β
At this moment, his inner emotions are extremely complicated.
Although after this incident, it is difficult for him to return to the past with his perception of the "third junior brother" Lian Ziling, he still has to admit that the other party's considerations are very proper, and he can't find any fault.
Externally, we have strengthened information collection, thrown stones to ask for directions, and internally trained troops to death.
Both inside and outside were considered, and in a hurry, he couldn't think of a more appropriate arrangement.
He couldn't help but look forward to more.
However, he had the mentality of playing with or without dates, and he didn't really expect Lian Ziling to be able to "spit out" new ideas endlessly.
Lian Ziling's figure was slightly straightened, his expression was unprecedentedly dignified, and his gaze was unprecedentedly firm.
Seeing his silent change, both of them were a little stunned.
Lian Ziling first looked at the "Second Senior Sister", and then at the "Senior Brother", and said:
"The previous two recommendations are just routine measures.
Effective is naturally effective, but how much of a role can it play? Is it possible to fundamentally secure our advantage?
I look hanging!
We have been closing the mountain for too long, giving too many opportunities to the outside world.
Even if you count Senior Sister Lin, the four of us who can really decide the success or failure of the Star Palace.
Although we have broken through to the Yuanying level, we have not broken through for a long time, and the foundation is not stable, although it is stronger than Jiedan, but the gap is not too big.
If someone carefully sets up a situation, it is not without the danger of falling.
Not to mention the Golem of Hatred, which is about to complete its resurrection, if it is against it alone, it will be difficult to escape!
This is still what we can see, what about those who don't? β
The mood of the "big brother" can be described as extremely bad.
Because of Lian Ziling's previous two suggestions, the hope in his heart raised his head slightly, but now it was shattered by his own hands.
"Senior Brother" was even a little angry, he stared at Lian Ziling, and said viciously: "What advice do you have?" β
"Open the Heavenly Pool of Stars!" Lian Ziling said softly.
The expressions of the two instantly froze.
His soft words, to the ears of the two of them, sounded like a thunderbolt in the sky, and like a demon whispering.
Nakshatra Tianchi, this is a topic that they all subconsciously avoid and don't want to touch.
From the moment he broke through to become a Yuan Baby, this word lingered in his heart almost all the time.
What is the reason for today's predicament of the Star Palace?
The sudden fall of the ancestor of the previous generation?
This is the appearance, but not the real cause.
The real reason is very simple, "green and yellow are not connected", when the ancestor of the previous generation of Yuanying fell, no new Yuanying stood up and supported the situation of the Star Palace.
But the strange place is here.
Now, after the closure of the Star Palace for nearly two hundred years, with so many pioneers already lost, there is still room for strength to "give birth" to four new primordial babies in just a few years.
ββThese four newcomers are concentrated in rushing to break through at this point in time, of course, there are their own factors, and there are also reasons why the Star Palace smashed a huge amount of resources into it at any cost, so it is called "birth".
Well, the obvious question.
Since the Star Palace has the ability to support many Yuan Infants, why is there such a strange thing as "Yuan Babies are not available"?
If before the fall of the previous generation of Yuanying Ancestor, there was still a Yuanying monk in the Xingzhu Palace, he didn't need to be strong, as long as he had just entered the realm of the Yuanying, the Xingzhu Palace would not have been closed for so long.
The problem lies in this "star celestial pool".
For the Infant Monk, this is a treasure.
With the help of it, even a Yuan Infant Monk who has just broken through can receive great help in a short period of time as if he had received an empowerment from a master.
Faster to stabilize cultivation, accelerate the improvement of cultivation, make the body stronger, and make the soul more refined......
The benefits are simply too numerous to describe.
But the moment it takes effect, a curse is born at the same time.
Because all this is at the cost of "monopolizing" the future of other non-Yuan Infant Monks in the Star Palace.
It's really evil.
Compared with before and after the Xingzhu Tianchi took effect, the aura of the Xingzhu Sea did not change at all, and the talents and minds of the other Xingzhu Palace people were not affected in any way.
It still looks like it's still thriving.
But there will be no new primordial babies, just like ears of rice that look good to grow, but they are full of empty shells.
This is simply the most vicious curse.
Only when the primordial infant who has used this star Tianchi is completely dead, will this curse disappear for a short time!
Yes, only a brief disappearance.
Lian Ziling's soft words like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter sounded in the minds of the two, like a spring breeze, giving them signs of revival and groundbreaking again. (End of chapter)
