Chapter 370: Regression? A Strange New Realm
Zhang Zixing is also quite satisfied with his performance, which is called "a soldier who surrenders without a fight". This time the true and false are confused, and the 36 strategies such as creating something out of nothing, blossoming on the tree, and anti-guest are the main strategies, so that the golden mother of Yaochi has no way to justify, and it can be regarded as reaching the supreme realm of "flickering".
And the performance of Li Dai, the gate of the Wa Palace, also played a key role, and even the Golden Mother of Yaochi couldn't help but shout that she was lucky and met the bitter master of Yuanyang Cave here. As everyone knows, Li Dai's appearance is not accidental, but a dark move that has already been laid out.
Li Dai, Dai Liye.
Dai Li is the dog demon among the seven monsters of Meishan, and he is a god mastiff who has cultivated the Tao. So far, except for Yuan Hong, Chang Hao, Wu Long, Yang Xian, Zhu Zizhen, and Jin Dasheng have all been killed, and only this Dai Li remains.
Although Dai Li is not high, he is the most observant of words and feelings, improvised, and attaches great importance to affection, and has the best friendship with Yuan Hong among the seven monsters. When it was said that Zhang Zixing broke through the Yuanyang Cave and killed the Lingbao ** Master, he released a large group of people from the demon clan, many of whom felt the grace of saving their lives and were willing to stay allegiance. After careful consideration, Zhang Zixing did not leave them, but inserted Dai Li into it without a trace in the first time, and after choosing a place to appease and entertain, he dismissed the demons in the name of righteousness.
When the demons were in Yuanyang Cave, they were separated by Lingbao and detained, and they didn't know each other, and after a few days of mutual contact, they became friends with each other, and the clever Dai Li naturally became one of them. Dai Li was instructed by Zhang Zixing to incite the demons to go to the Wa Palace to ask Nuwa Niangniang to be the master and seek justice from the teachings, and this suggestion was immediately approved by many people.
Zhang Zixing's original intention at that time was to use the matter of Lingbao to abuse and kill the demon clan to worsen the relationship between Nuwa Niangniang and the exposition of the sect, further contain the Yuan Shi Tianzun, and make this pool of water more muddy, and it can also play a better role in the future when the Immortal Array is punished.
But there was still a discrepancy between calculation and practice, at that time, Zhang Zixing did not know that the thirty-three days away from Nuwa's residence was the vast universe, and he did not expect the difficulty of this trip. Dai Li went to the Wa Palace, and there was no reply, and Zhang Zixing also said that Dai Li died unexpectedly and regretted it very much.
In fact, due to their low cultivation, Dai Li and the demon clan went through great difficulties, and finally found the planet where the Waiwa Palace was located for thirty-three days, and many people were also lost along the way. When she finally arrived at the Wa Palace, there were only a few people, and Nuwa Niangniang got the advice of the Golden Phoenix Fairy and allowed the demons to enter the planet.
After listening to Dai Li's group of people crying, Nuwa learned that Lingbao ** Master had been enslaving and mutilating countless demon clans for many years, and couldn't help but be secretly angry, and wanted to go to Yuxu Palace to ask for guilt, but after hearing that Lingbao had been killed by a person, she thought about it for a while and changed her mind.
For these suffering demon clans, Nuwa Niangniang felt pity and gave her the secret of the heavenly demon, among which Dai Li had been instructed by Kong Xuan, and her knowledge and qualifications were higher than her peers, and she had a relationship with this heavenly demon heart, and she entered the realm very quickly. Nuwa nodded secretly, took Dai Li as a disciple, and cultivated in the Wa Palace, while the rest of the demon clan got some magic weapons and elixirs as appeasement and were sent back to the nether realm.
Dai Li is not a person who has forgotten his roots, although he does not know Zhang Zixing's identity, he has always remembered the grace of this Xiaoyaozi to save his life in Meishan, and he misses several brothers. Although he had the heart to go back to pay his respects, he was unable to leave this place because of Nuwa Niangniang's order, so he had to concentrate on cultivation, and his cultivation was not small.
Now that Dai Li saw Zhang Zixing in the Wa Palace, he was secretly happy, and he did his best to cooperate at the moment, and finally played a key role and successfully made Nuwa Niangniang and Jin Mu break their faces. Because of Nuwa Niangniang's magical powers, Dai Li didn't dare to use immortal knowledge to spread his voice, so as not to show his feet, but secretly expressed the joy in his heart through his eyes.
Zhang Zixing gave Dai Li an approving look and followed the Three Emperors into the main hall.
Nuwa Niangniang shook her head and sighed: "Today, thanks to the reminder of Daoyou, I didn't expect that the Emperor Heavenly Mother would have such ambitions that day!"
Fu Xi smiled and said: "Although it is true that Lingbao has harmed the demon clan, many things have only been heard from the mouth of Brother Green Parrot, especially the matter of testing forbidden arts, but there is still a lot of discussion, if you really want to control the various clans with secret techniques, how easy is it to talk about! There must be an inside story in the meantime, and I don't know if it is related to the desire of the saint to restrain the sect." But the magnitude of the ambitions of the heavenly realm has been revealed. Xian Mei just took this opportunity to draw a clear line with the Golden Mother, so as not to be careless and be calculated. ”
Fu Xi's words were very clever, although Li Dai confirmed that Lingbao had harmed the demon clan, but if it was used to conclude that the Heavenly Realm wanted to use secret techniques to control the clans, it would still seem too far-fetched, even absurd. Fu Xi's words not only pointed out the fact that Lingbao had committed evil, but also quietly involved that kind of "experiment" in the dispute between the two religions, which was more convincing. Anyway, at this time, the ambition of the heavenly realm has been proven, and there is no need to delve into the matter of the Lingbao forbidden technique.
Zhang Zixing secretly gave Fu Xi a thumbs up: Jiang is still old and spicy. It's a pity that Fu Xi didn't understand the meaning of this gesture, so he ignored it directly, but let him show his feelings in vain.
As Fu Xi said, drawing a clear line with the heavenly realm was originally Nuwa's idea, and now she just took this opportunity to take advantage of the trend, but she was not completely confused by Zhang Zixing's words.
Nuwa Niangniang glanced at Zhang Zixing a few times and asked, "Fellow Daoist, have you completely refined the power of the lotus platform in the mountains and rivers for more than three hundred years?"
Zhang Zixing nodded and replied, "This time, Duomeng Niangniang has been completed, and the poor Dao has been refined, and the strength has really improved. ”
In the past three hundred years, Zhang Zixing has spent decades familiarizing himself with and refining the various forces in his body from beginning to end, gradually integrating them into one, and the following two hundred years and more than two hundred years are a process of merging spirit, ** power and refining lotus platform go hand in hand.
In the end, Zhang Zixing finally completely turned the huge power of the Liupin Lotus Platform into his own use, and his cultivation reached a new height, the previous situation of demonic qi influence and power conflict has completely disappeared, and there has also been a strange change in the immortal power and spiritual realm, but what the specific change is, I can't say. In other words, even he himself didn't know how far he had cultivated.
Nuwa Niangniang looked at him twice, showing a puzzled look, and said: "You have refined the power of the lotus platform, and your meritorious deeds should be greatly advanced, why have you regressed in your cultivation?"
As soon as Nuwa said this, the Three Emperors also noticed this strange phenomenon and showed surprise one after another. Fu Xi noticed Zhang Zixing's abnormality early in the morning, and said that he was wrong, but now when he heard Nuwa say this, he confirmed it.
Zhang Zixing was taken aback: How is it possible that the cultivation has regressed? So far, the strange mirror in the body and the power of Jiuding have not been completely refined due to special reasons, and although the rest of the power is very different, it is already one, can be dispatched freely, and exert a far more powerful power than before.
Could it be that this is the wrong way to practice...... But why do you feel that your strength has improved so much?
Shennong showed a deep expression and said: "There seems to be something strange in this, originally the Wandering Daoist Friend was a Golden Immortal Upper Rank cultivator, but now he has been in retreat for three hundred years, but he has become a Golden Immortal Intermediate Rank? I have cured all kinds of incurable diseases, but it is the first time I have seen such a strange thing!"
The Yellow Emperor stepped forward and said, "You can use your immortal power and attack me with a punch?"
Zhang Zixing also wanted to try the power he had comprehended from his three hundred years of cultivation, nodded, gathered immortal power, and shouted: "Xuanyuan Holy Emperor, please pay attention!"
As soon as the words fell, he punched the Yellow Emperor's chest, and this punch was very peculiar with a two-color mist on it. When the fist wind approached, the Yellow Emperor's complexion changed slightly, but he still did not avoid it, and he took the punch. I saw a "bang", and there was an explosion in the mist, and a circle of air waves surged in the air. The Yellow Emperor's figure shook twice, and finally stood firm.
The Yellow Emperor received this punch and exclaimed: "The power of this fist is already the realm of Xuan Immortals, could it be that you have comprehended the mystery of the power of the four spirits and achieved the way of Xuan Immortals?"
Speaking of the power of the four spirits, Zhang Zixing's face showed a slight color - when he was cultivating in the Mountains and Rivers Society, he had tried to condense the four powers of human spirits, demon spirits, fairy spirits, and Xuan spirits in the four veins, and fused them into one. How do you know that the power of the four spirits conflicts with each other, and they can't be integrated at all, and there is almost danger, but fortunately, with the power of the five-colored essence stone, it can be calmed down.
This situation was unexpected, after all, the power of the four spirits to achieve Xuan Immortal was originally a shortcut, if everyone could pass smoothly, wouldn't it be all Xuan Immortal? It is estimated that no one cultivated at that time, and the demon girl, Xuan girl, and fairy were called sought-after goods, and they could cultivate all day long.
Zhang Zixing was not discouraged, and with the power of the five-colored essence stone and the refining six-grade lotus platform, he repeatedly fused the power of the four spirits, but he was always denied entry. As a result, he unintentionally inserted willows into the willows, and in failure after failure, he comprehended a strange attack method.
This method can highly compress the power of the four spirits that cannot be fused, and then burst open in an instant, the principle of this method is similar to the previous "water and fire compatibility", but the power is much more powerful. The most unique thing is the superimposed power of the four forces attacking at the same time, which is somewhat similar to the attack pattern of the Chaos Nine Shapes, which is equivalent to the fourth power of a single force multiplied by four, which is very amazing.
Zhang Zixing didn't expect that he had the power of the four spirits, but he didn't comprehend that supreme realm, but instead came up with such an attack technique, which can be described as sacrificing the basics, but he was helpless.
Due to Nuwa Niangniang's presence, for some consideration, what he just displayed was just the compatibility of the Yellow Emperor's Heart Sutra and the magic technique produced by the two repulsive forces of the True Martial Spirit Technique, and it was not easy to explain it to the Yellow Emperor for a while. It's just unexpected, that's all, it already has an attack power that is almost immortal, and I can't help but feel an unexpected surprise.
Nuwa Niangniang also nodded: "This punch is enough to withstand the strength of the peak of the lower level of Xuan Immortal, which is really extraordinary." But the essence of the way of Xuan Immortal lies in the comprehension and breakthrough of the realm, not the pure strength of the realm. Many demon clan talents can also exert super-level attack power in a short period of time through a certain spell, but the realm can never be improved, and they do not have the true strength that Xuan Xian has. It's just that your current situation is really a bit strange, it seems to be caused by a strange force, although the strength has increased, the level of cultivation that seems to be on the outside has regressed. It's the first time I've seen such a strange method, and even I'm not sure if it's the specific cultivation realm of you, I wonder if it's affected by the power of the six-rank lotus platform?"
"Rebirth" refers to the Buddhist saying that after death, the spirit will go to the Elysian World to reach another level of rebirth according to the merits, which seems to be inconsistent with this. Zhang Zixing secretly muttered in his heart, "It's terrible to be uneducated", but on the surface, he suddenly realized.
The Three Emperors heard Nuwa's words and nodded in unison - no matter what the appearance of this Son of Heaven is, it is a good thing that his actual strength has increased.
Zhang Zixing took out a small crystal stone and said to Nuwa: "Niangniang, I should say that the five-colored essence stone you gave me will help me refine the power of the lotus platform. Now that the fine stone has been used, there is only such a size left, and the poor Dao does not dare to hide his secrets, so he returns it to Yu Niangniang. ”
Nuwa Niangniang looked at this small stone that was more "pocket-sized" than the original, and was slightly surprised, and said: "This matter is really strange, if it is common sense, after you have succeeded, this stone should be broken without a trace, why is there still a surplus? Could it be that it is because of the power in your body that you have been reborn? Since I have given this stone to you, it is your thing, how can I accept it again? It seems that you have a relationship with this five-colored essence stone, and I hope to cherish it." ”
Zhang Zixing thanked Nuwa again and pocketed the five-color essence stone. Fu Xi knew that Zhang Zixing, as the Son of Heaven, had been out for more than a month this time, and he couldn't delay too long, so he got up and said goodbye to Nuwa immediately.
Nuwa personally sent the four out of the palace, Zhang Zixing looked at Nuwa's beautiful, noble and graceful peerless appearance, and secretly sighed: Back then, because of the courage of blood and spirit, it was decided that Nuwa would give up human beings in order to conform to a certain way of heaven and let the lives be ruined, so there were many conflicts, and he also made a bet of "human emperor VS saint".
Now Zhang Zixing has also experienced a lot of things, and he can see it even more thoroughly: Nuwa is unwilling to reverse the destiny of heaven to help the human race, and sent the three demons to harm the country, from Zhang Zixing's side, he hates it very much. But objectively speaking, she just chose a different position. Murder is inevitable, including saints, everyone has a position, and it doesn't matter if it's right or wrong.
Now that Zhang Zixing has inherited the favor of Nuwa Niangniang, the "opponent", not only saved his life, but also succeeded in cultivation, it is inevitable that there is some bad feeling in his heart. Fu Xi saw it in his eyes, smiled slightly, and did not speak. One side is the person he values, and it is also the hope of the two brothers for many years, and the other side is his own sister, so he doesn't want to see the two parties resentful of each other, and it is better to be able to resolve the grievances into invisible, and finally turn enemies into friends.
After returning to the Nether Realm by carrying the river map, Zhang Zixing gave a deep salute to the Three Emperors and said: "Zixin is grateful for the grace of the three Holy Emperors to save and recreate, and I really don't know how to repay it." ”
Compared to those saints, the cultivation of the three Holy Emperors was nothing, but Zhang Zixing had sincere respect for these three people.
"Your Majesty, as the Son of Heaven, has been away from Chaoge for more than a month, and there must be a lot of affairs to be dealt with urgently, so let's go back to the capital first," Fu Xi said with a smile: "When I said that I planned to let you go to the Land of Bliss alone and take the risk of gambling with the two saints of the West." Kong Xuandao was very annoyed, and once put down his words, if you have the slightest difference, he will not stop with the three of us. Now, although His Majesty has been defeated and allowed to be mentioned, he is in danger of great misfortune. We are all worried, and we don't dare to go back to the Fire Cloud Cave this time, so we should find a place to hide for a while. Otherwise, as soon as the Innate Supreme Treasure Chaos Bell comes out, the three of us can't afford it. ”
Zhang Zixing knew that Fuxi was joking, and hurriedly said: "My brother's surname is arrogant, and he is also worried about my safety. If there is any rudeness, I will apologize to the three of them on his behalf. ”
Shennong and the Yellow Emperor also laughed and said: "Your Majesty, why should you be polite, brotherhood, you should be like this!"
Fu Xi put away his smile and said, "Your Majesty, you go back to the court song first." The three of us are going to Biyou Palace and wait for the Tongtian Sage to come out and discuss the matter. ”
Zhang Zixing didn't expect the Three Emperors to go to Biyou Palace, and he was a little surprised in his heart, so he heard Fu Xi say again: "After Your Majesty goes back, please ask the two Taoist friends of the ward, Kong Xuan and Xingtian, not to retreat or travel far away for the time being." Take the three of me to pass through the heavenly saints, and there is something to borrow. This matter concerns His Majesty's future and cannot be taken lightly. ”
Is it about the future? Zhang Zixing was surprised, seeing that Fu Xi still looked mysterious, he knew that it would be in vain to ask, so he had to agree. The four of them broke up and went to their destinations.
Zhang Zixing returned to Chaoge, so that Kong Xuan and the others, who had been worried, suddenly put their minds at ease, and everyone asked about his teaching in the West, Zhang Zixing said a series of incidents of devouring the Liupin Lotus Terrace, almost dying of an explosion, and cultivating in the Wa Palace for three hundred years, only to hear Kong Xuan and Xingtian couldn't help but be surprised, while Princess Longji and Shang Qingjun looked frightened, calling it dangerous.
Kong Xuan heard that his strength had greatly advanced, and his face showed a strange expression: "Brother Huang, according to your three hundred years of cultivation in the Mountains and Rivers Society, even if you don't reach the realm of Xuan Immortal, you are at least the peak of the Golden Immortal Upper Rank, why did your cultivation regress to the middle level of the Golden Immortal?"
Zhang Zixing smiled bitterly: "I don't know why this is the case, according to Nuwa Niangniang, it may be related to the power of the six-rank lotus platform, and even she can't see my specific entry." ”
Xing Tian suddenly became interested and said, "Brother Huang, why don't you show the power of that heart comprehension, so that I and the second brother can have a number in our hearts." ”
Kong Xuan got up first and said, "The imperial brother's advancement is very peculiar, and the surname Suo takes the foolish brother as his opponent, how about a little discussion?"
Zhang Zixing couldn't help but move in his heart: there are no outsiders here, and there is no need to scruples, just try the true power of the newly comprehended "four spirits in one".
