Chapter 9: The Dark Stars
The vast universe, hundreds of millions of stars.
The shining light of the stars cannot illuminate the vast universe.
In the cosmic void, the most normal state is empty, dark, and cold.
Zhou Xun, who was dressed in a gray robe, stood in the void of the universe, dark and cold, but the harsh environment could not have any impact on him. Zhou Xun was standing quietly in the void, with a solemn expression on his slightly dark and square face, and his gaze stayed on a star thousands of miles away.
A dark planet, similar in size to the Celestial Spirit. The surface of the entire planet is like a tomb, lifeless, with no light, no living things, no mountains and rivers, only undulating barren deserts.
On the surface of the planet, there is also a faint layer of black sè gas. Make the planet, which has no light, even darker.
Cosmologically speaking, there are many planets that do not harbor life, and it is also very common. Zhou Xun traveled hundreds of millions of miles away, but he came here for this planet.
This planet had a name 10,000 years ago, called Zhengyang Star. It is one of the most advanced planets in the Tianyang Galaxy. Well, at the beginning, the Burning Sun Immortal Venerable was named after this planet. However, during the Zerg War, the life on this planet far from the main star was devoured by the Zerg.
It is also located on the edge of the galaxy, in the Zerg War, that the planet was preserved. Zhou Xun was also able to reach such a far place in a short period of time through the ancient teleportation point.
"Ying Kun, I'm here............" Zhou Xun's divine consciousness was like a flying sword, slashing through the dark universe and falling straight on the dark planet.
In the vast and empty universe, Zhou Xun's powerful divine sense was like a drop of water in the sea, unable to set off any waves. Dark Planet" also did not react. In the universe without sound, that kind of death-like silence makes people's hearts sink to the bottom. Zhou Xun's cultivation was good enough, and he didn't get an answer, "I'm not in a hurry, I'm just waiting quietly."
The face without any expression seems to be anxious after waiting for a hundred years.
A few hours passed, and a long laugh came from the dark planet, "Zhou Xun, don't come to ...... harm", the voice transmitted by the divine consciousness, like the Yangtze River giant 1ang, churning and rushing, every time he said a word, the momentum doubled" After a few words were finished, the majestic divine consciousness had already shaken the void around Zhou Xun into a circle of spatial waves.
Just one sentence shows its majesty and domineering. You must know that in the empty universe, the spatial structure is extremely stable" that person can talk casually, he has such a power, and he really has the power of ghosts and gods.
"It's fine. Compared with the other party's grandiose momentum, Zhou Xun's answer was bland, but the information conveyed by the divine consciousness was extremely clear, and it was not covered by the other party's momentum at all.
"Since you're here," why don't you come up and sit down. ", the majestic voice invited sincerely.
Zhou Xun simply refused, "No." ”
"Why, aren't you afraid that I will turn my face" Haha......", the voice was a little mocking and a little ridiculous, and it sounded very familiar with Zhou Xun.
Zhou Xun was unmoved, nodded slightly, and said, "Yes, I'm afraid." Zhou Xun's frankness is ordinary, but it makes people think he is joking.
The man sighed and said, "You haven't seen each other for four hundred years! Besides, how can you Zhou Xun be afraid of others!" In the end, the man couldn't help but exud a little sarcasm.
Zhou Xunzheng said: "That planet has been refined into a dark star by your Xuanming Holy Emperor Dao, and I will never go up to find death." Ying Kun, I'm not coming from hundreds of millions of miles, if you want to talk, come out. Otherwise, you don't have to spend 1ang time. ”
Lang, who was known as Ying Kun, smiled: "I haven't seen you for many years, you are more cautious. Well, I'm not going to let you run for nothing. As he spoke, there was already a black figure tens of thousands of meters in front of Zhou Xun.
The black sè figure has a slender figure, upright and handsome facial features, and there are six points similar to Ying Ming between the eyebrows and eyes, but the difference is that the black sè figure always shows a little bit of yīn gloom, although the smile on his face, but the meaning of the yīn forest will only make people's hearts colder. Wearing a black sè embroidered gold dragon robe, standing there with his hands in his hands, although yīn is cold, he also has a natural kingly bearing.
Zhou Xun looked Ying Kun up and down very seriously for a long time, and hesitated: "Have you advanced to Mahayana?", Ying Kun smiled and avoided answering: "What do you think?"
Zhou Xun was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "To be honest, I don't want to believe it, but I can only believe it." Ying Kun sighed abruptly, "Today is all thanks to you and Ying Ming." ”
Zhou Xun sincerely persuaded: "Even if you advance to Mahayana, you can't change anything." The empire does not need another emperor to rule now. You are a genius in cultivation, but governing the country is different from spiritual practice. ”
"My dear friend, four hundred years ago, did you betray me for this reason!", Ying Kun scoffed. No matter what kind of cultivation he does, when he mentions the hatred of his life, he will inevitably have some emotional fluctuations.
Zhou Xun's square face showed a hint of amusement, "Betrayal, have you always seen it like this! I have never betrayed anyone." I just made a choice. I think Ying Ming is more suitable to be the emperor than you, that's all. This has nothing to do with personal friendship!", Ying Kun shouted with some anger!", "You know, what annoys me the most is your compassionate face, as if your choice is for the sake of hundreds of millions of cultivators and for world peace. Now, are hundreds of millions of cultivators happy? Is the world peaceful? Zhou Xun, you are a hypocrite, and the most hateful thing is that not only do you not admit it, but you don't even know that you are a hypocrite. For the sake of one's so-called Tao and so-called Reason, you can do everything confidently and confidently without feeling any uneasiness. Really "hateful, ......", in order to win the cultivation of the Kun royal family, after hundreds of years of depression, seeing Zhou Xun's death and not changing, he finally couldn't help but burst out angrily, and even scolded. The invisible divine consciousness turned into a tangible shock wave, like a tsunami, and rushed towards Zhou Xun. Wave after wave of shock, seemingly never-ending.
Zhou Xun was in it, resisted for a while, and finally took out the Jiupin Golden Lotus, and the golden light lit up, like a mainstay, no matter how fierce the waves of divine consciousness changed, but he did not move, and steadily guarded the place close at hand.
Seeing this, Ying Kun didn't laugh angrily, and the impact of his divine sense stopped. "It's just a few tricks for you to come and go, I'm tired of being old-fashioned. Zhou Xun said indifferently: "It's easy to use." Ying Kun said disdainfully: "The master of the Jiupin Golden Lotus, you are the most scheming one, and you are also the most unproductive one......
Zhou Xun didn't argue, just stood there quietly and listened attentively, like a most competent listener.
Win Kun criticized for a long time, Zhou Xun was like a stone, and he couldn't get any response, although he had withdrawn a lot of stuffiness for hundreds of years, he felt very bored. "I said, you're a dead man, you came here, didn't you just want to be scolded, can you have a reaction?", Zhou Xun said indifferently: "I see that you are full of prisons, how can you let it go, your heart can be balanced." Now, are you balanced?", "Balance, I'll scold a few words and you'll be balanced!How can there be such a light thing in the world, you ......", as soon as this stubble was mentioned, Ying Kun couldn't help but be angry again, and wow wow scolded again.
After scolding for a few minutes, Ying Kun finally regained his composure.
Scolding the street like a shrew, this is too tasteless. For Zhou Xun like this, he won't frown after scolding for a thousand years. "Okay, you have to be willing to cooperate with me, I am not to blame for the past. yù, Qingjingyang College, will always be the first academy of the empire. Otherwise, when I take power, I will uproot the Jingyang Academy and completely destroy the Taoist system of the Qing. ”
Even when it came to the Taoist system of Qing Jingyang, Zhou Xun was not excited, but said calmly: "I have already said before, the empire is very good now, and there is no need to change the emperor." Since you have attained Mahayana, the universe is vast and immense, and it is not for you to be at ease. Isn't it very comfortable to sit in that seat and deal with endless government affairs every day?", Ying Kun's face gradually became cold, and his deep eyes were deep, "Ying Ming took mine, and he will return it to me." ”
Zhou Xun shook his head and said, "If it was the past, I wouldn't care about your brother's affairs." It's just that "now that the Zerg is coming, if you mess with 1uan like this, the 10,000-year-old empire will be destroyed in your hands!", Ying Kun sneered, "What I can't get, it's a billion years of inheritance, and what does it have to do with me." If you really want to think about it for the sake of hundreds of millions of cultivators, you should cooperate with me and minimize your losses, and I will only kill Ying Ming. When I become the emperor, wouldn't it be more certain to resist the Zerg."
Zhou Xun refused without thinking: "You will only destroy, you will not be a good emperor, and you will not be a good emperor." No matter how the times change, a Mahayana powerhouse cannot change the world. The evolution of cultivators, the set of epochs, requires brains, not fists. "You have a point. Ying Kun sneered, "Still." While you are curled up in the tortoise shell and enjoying the pitiful peace, the scattered cultivators have established a bond with each other. Please look at a friend, I think you will be pleasantly surprised......"
With Ying Kun's words, a white-clothed monk appeared beside Ying Kun.
"Amitabha, the poor monk Shenxiu, I have seen the Lord Zhou Mén......" The white-clothed monk is clear-eyed, his eyebrows are indifferent and distant, his hands are folded to salute, his voice is gentle and quiet, and his words and deeds have a heart-wrenching Zen that makes people break their hearts.
But this salute really exploded in Zhou Xun's heart like thunder. His eyes swept over the courteous Shenxiu, and Zhou Xun finally showed a moved expression, "Master Shenxiu of Heart Zen Buddhism?", Heart Zen Buddhism was originally a famous sect of the Imperial Buddhist Sect, but after the Millennium War, he participated in the battle for the throne but lost. was vigorously attacked by Ying Ming's father, and the heart of Zen Buddhism existed in name only. After that, in order to repair the relationship with the royal family, the Heart Zen sect also married the most out-of-the-way NV disciple to Ying Ming, that is, Concubine Hui.
Shenxiu, thousands of years ago, was praised by the Quartet. Disappeared after that fight. I didn't expect that after a thousand years, I actually colluded with Ying Kun.
Shenxiu bowed his head again and said humbly: "Heart Zen Shenxiu, I don't dare to be called a master." Zhou Xun's heart has been sinking, no matter how gentle and polite Shenxiu is, he appears at this time, but it is not for the sake of making friends.
Sure enough, Shenxiu didn't do much nonsense, and said directly: "I have heard the name of Zhou Mén for a long time, Shenxiu is not talented, and I want to understand the wisdom."
