Chapter 360: Five to Three
Hearing this, Sorrow raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you want to understand the gap between you and me so much, then I will simply be neat." ”
After saying that, the momentum of his whole person suddenly changed, like the high mountain that towered to the clouds among the peaks. In any case, sorrow is a true practitioner of the True Dao. Even if he has not advanced an inch in the past hundred years, the foundation is there, even if Zhuge Chen is among the Mandate of Heaven, it is still nonsense to complete such a level of sin.
Among the five realms of immortals, in fact, if you really want to count it, it can be regarded as three completely different levels. Below the path is the first level. And Zhendao has its own faction, as for being like a saint and a human immortal, although the killing power is also a world of difference. There are too few immortals, and there are only four of them, which can be completely included in them.
It is actually very easy to see whether a first-level practitioner can go higher and farther in this life. Of course, there are those who are late bloomers, but there are too few.
Many sects in the heavens and heavens use this to define the identity of the disciples in the sect, if they can only stay at the first level, even if they are the sons of the sect master, they can't write their names on the red paper of the genealogy. On the contrary, no matter how poor the background is, as long as the talent is enough, everything will be at your fingertips. When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven. Otherwise, why would a practitioner strive for the realm?
When every practitioner steps into the bamboo basket to draw water, he will know whether he can go further and reach the realm of the Ultimate Path. It's just that this kind of privacy is just like this, except for the people you absolutely trust, the rest will never hear about it.
Among them, there is no hope of reaching the realm of the Dao in their lives, more than eighty percent will give it a go, and there are very few who can break through the threshold of life and death. The bamboo basket fetching water has a metaphor for the emptiness. Except for the worry-free nature of the Divine King Body, all the remaining cultivators may actually be realized by the original mind. As a result, the body will die, and the catastrophe will never be recovered.
So believe it or not, it's all up to the hearts of people. Whether or not you can overcome this near-death situation depends on yourself.
When Zhuge Chen was at the peak of the Mandate of Heaven, it was not that he had personally killed Zhen Dao. It's just that now it's not as good as it was then, without the support of the god king's body, the sword qi around the body seems to be more majestic than before, but in fact, it is between the best. What's more, he is not at the peak of his destiny now, and when he first entered this realm, those lost and recovered qi engines have not yet been completely controlled by him. It is difficult to move the mind and the machine at the same time, which is also one of the hidden dangers.
And the sorrow is also different from the ordinary Zhendao who died in his hands, compared to the heavens, the opportunity to break through the world is really pitiful. Zhuge Chen even suspected that if he could become holy here, he was afraid that if he went to heaven and heaven, he would get a chance to become a human immortal.
But don't underestimate this mere opportunity, I don't know how many heavenly saints have already made meritorious contributions. Even after the end of his life, he can go down in history. But he wants to pursue the ethereal realm of human immortals, and he even does not hesitate to do a lot of evil things for this. In the end, the realm of human immortals is still hopeless, but the infamy on his body has increased a lot.
Although that being said, cultivators aspire to a higher realm, just like the normal feelings of those people, and they can't avoid it. Many things can only be known by trying.
Looking at Zhuge Chen, who had not moved, sorrow suddenly erupted into laughter. He pointed at Zhuge Chen and said, "Zhuge boy, what do you think? I don't want you to be so hesitant, so okay, I'll stand here and pick you up for five moves." After five moves, if I make a move, even if you win!"
Zhuge Chen came back to his senses and asked, "In this case, it is too simple. I can't go through this back door just because I know my sorrowful seniors! Otherwise, let Your Majesty know, it will be difficult for both of us. ”
"Simple?" said in a cold voice, "Do you know what kind of person can become a court worshipper?"
Zhuge Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
Bai Yi didn't know much about the inside story, but he had also heard some secrets from the mouth of the head of the Wang family. The worship in the Dayan court was self-contained, and it was different from the other three kingdoms. They are bound by the imperial court very low, and the royal family will not call the shots unless it is absolutely necessary. The relationship between the two parties is not master and servant, but more like a mercenary.
However, the status of these worshippers is extremely high, so high that the emperor directly executed the prime minister in order to recruit Zhuge Chen at that time, which can be seen.
In the offerings, there are three types of people. The first is like sorrow, which is the grace of the royal family, and its own realm is not low, and it voluntarily takes on the offering. The second type is like Zhuge Chen, and now the realm is neither high nor low, but in the future, it will definitely dominate one side. If you're lucky, you might even be able to take the whole world into your pocket. As for the last category, there are some wealthy businessmen. In normal times, the imperial court naturally does not need them. However, when the big war comes, they will play a vital role.
What is the comparison of a great war? It is nothing more than the amount of money in the treasury, and whichever country can hold out longer, whose hands will fall on victory.
Just like the sensitive situation of the Shang Yan War now, those wealthy merchants who served as worshippers in the imperial court have all entered Beijing. The first is to celebrate the emperor's birthday, and the second is to take out his own money to support the national war.
That's all Zhuge Chen can know.
Sorrowfully said: "Your Majesty cherishes talents and loves talents more, for those cultivators in the rivers and lakes, as long as the realm is high enough and the future prospects are good enough, they can become worshippers in the imperial court." However, His Majesty alone does not say everything about this matter, and it has to go through my hands. Otherwise, a lot of stinky fish and rotten shrimp are crowded in the court, like moths and ants, and I will be upset when I look at it. It is enough for a cultivator of your age, Zhuge Boy, to be able to use my trick without falling into a serious injury. But you're different from them, and it's the first time I've been able to test the champion position of the Ten Thousand Clans Society. ”
Sorrow continued: "And your identity is different from others, if you can walk under my hands, not to mention your identity is comparable to the six Shangshu above those temples, or even better. Therefore, this test naturally cannot be the same as that of others. ”
This temptation, even for Zhuge Chen, is very great
。 Other people's officialdom has been up and down for decades, and if you want to sit in the position of the six Shangshu, you have to depend on whether your fate is good or not. It is one thing to have real talent and real learning, and if you have it, it is useless. And if you want to go further, this is even more so. Just like a practitioner's step by step, his own talent and step by step must be ensured. For the rest, look at the way of heaven, look at chance, and fight for luck.
Zhuge Chen nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"The first move. Without any more nonsense, Zhuge Chen stepped out, and two flying swords floated around him out of their sheaths. They slowly circled like fluttering butterflies, and several wisps of sword qi crisscrossed and coiled together.
In the hall where the two of them were confronted, it was as if they were isolated from the world at this moment. The flying swords hooked up with each other and formed a sword formation.
Zhuge Chen, who was looking ahead, said softly: "How offended. ”
Sadly laughed and said, "What nonsense?"
The array moves with the people, and so does the flying sword. Xiaolou Tiandi spread out, Zhuge Chen snorted softly, and the whole person turned into an afterimage, heading towards the position where he was standing with sorrow.
"That's it, it's too slow!" he roared, and the sword qi around him that should have surrounded him instantly collapsed. And without the support of sword qi, Zhuge Chen retreated step by step, and when he stood still, he was almost forced out of the gate of this palace.
It is worthy of being the best way, and being in this world has been mutually induced with the way of heaven. Fang Cai was so sad that he obviously didn't make a move, but he just used his own qi to no longer deliberately suppress the enemy, and he forced Zhuge Chen to have no way out. It is hard to imagine that if sorrow is really his mortal enemy, Zhuge Chen should be so without a way to go to heaven and a door to the earth.
In the silence, a Taoist gently opened his lips and recited the Taoist sound. Zhuge Chen used this as a medium to move the two peaks to the tip of the rubber pillar sword. He wants to ask the sword with this second move, and take a look at the way to break the situation with sorrow.
Yang Xian, who had already woken up, looked at Zhuge Chen in a daze, of course he knew this move, but it was not the same as before. However, he could confirm that if that Bai Yi really showed such a sword aura, he would only lose even more.
The gap between the two is like a firefly and a bright moon, and it is ridiculous that he still wanted to compete with Bai Yi before.
After seeing this trick, Yang Xian was immediately relieved. Most people will only be jealous of people who are not far from them, like Zhuge Chen, who has already stood in a higher realm. The so-called jealousy is meaningless. Even his inner demons disappeared at this moment.
Yang Xian sighed and did not stay here for long. After getting up and leaving the palace, he returned to his residence and continued his meditation and practice.
As expected, this trick was also easily blocked by sorrow. However, Zhuge Chen didn't want to use this trick to determine the victory or defeat, everything needs a gradual process. Whether it was the sword formation that shot first, or this Kunlun sword, it was all his foreshadowing.
Said with a sad smile: "If that's the case, I'm afraid you won't have a chance, Zhuge boy." ”
Zhuge Chen replied expressionlessly: "What's the hurry?"
He walked slowly, reached out and grabbed the two flying swords, and his eyes suddenly burst into dazzling light. Sorrow frowned and watched quietly. A dizzying effort, he seemed to return
When I was young. At that time, he stayed with the girl he loved, carefree all day, and was the truest happiness.
"Unfortunately, it's not true. Sorrowfully muttered to himself: "Zhuge boy, don't use this kind of means." Reminds me of the past, and I'm going to make a move later. ”
Of course he was joking, but he didn't expect Zhuge Chen to stand behind him and say softly: "It should have been like this a long time ago." ”
