Chapter 287: No Ascension Realm
"Is this mission related to this totem?" Wei Zhong asked worriedly.
Cen Lianping shook his head and chuckled:
"Don't worry, fellow Daoist Jie, at our level we have not had the opportunity to come into contact with such existences. This time we just found a special dragon beast."
Wei Zhong breathed a sigh of relief. If the people of Jiuzhou insisted on getting into trouble with those who might be the existence of earthly immortals, Wei Zhong would have to say goodbye disrespectfully.
Fortunately, the Kyushu human race also knows how to measure things.
Recalling Min Laiqing's research on the path to body refining, Wei Zhong sent a message to Huang Shuya and asked:
"Is that Fellow Daoist Min's research on the path to body refining related to this totem pole?"
Huang Shuya nodded, without transmitting the message, but said in front of everyone:
"Senior Min has been studying this totem pole method recently, trying to get rid of the restrictions of the real dragon in the demon world and make our own totem pole for the Kyushu human race."
The thunder dragon in "The Treasure of Time" heard this and sneered:
"It would be a real joke if this human race, which is nothing more than a god, can cast a totem that represents the power of the law."
However, when Wei Zhong recalled the strange situation in the "Time Treasure Record" when he first entered Kyushu and the special spiritual contract he signed with Kyushu, he suddenly felt that hope was not so slim.
"Are there any preliminary results now?"
Hearing this, Huang Shuya shook her head and sighed:
"The condensation of dragon blood has been effective, but the totem is still being explored."
A few people talked for a while in the teahouse and then left in a flying car.
Wei Zhong was entertained by several people in a room full of spiritual energy. The place was not big, only the size of a house of more than 40 square meters in the previous life, and was simply divided into two spaces.
One for daily life and one for cultivation.
Although the space is small, the spiritual energy concentration has reached the fifth level, which is rare good news.
Wei Zhong was surprised to hear that Huang Shuya and others also lived in this kind of house.
"This Jiuzhou is really overcrowded to the extreme. Even the cultivators of the gods have to live in such a small environment.
"No wonder we have to explore the demon world to find a living space even if we risk danger."
This kind of risky move was mostly out of desperation, but after seeing the strength of the demon world, I don’t know if Kyushu’s top management regretted it.
After all, Kyushu is only a small thousand world level. Before it borders the demon world, the person with the highest cultivation level can only become a god.
But the demon world is a real Zhongqian world, with three realms: Lianxu, Hedao, and Mahayana.
There are also special handwritings left in the demon world by those who have transcended tribulations and ascended to find the way to earthly immortality.
From this point of view, it is not a level that Kyushu can compete with.
"It's okay to be humble and develop well, but if you are greedy for success and rush into advancement, you will inevitably suffer."
As I was thinking about it, a bell suddenly rang outside the door. I opened it and saw that it was a man in special attire.
He was holding a black square box in his hand. When Wei Zhong opened the door, he asked:
"But Mr. Xie Yuanping?"
Wei Zhong nodded slowly:
"It's me."
The other party looked at it for a few times, confirmed that the appearance was consistent with the remarks on the information, and handed the black square box to Wei Zhong.
"Please check the package Mr. Min gave you."
Wei Zhong accepted it.
"The package has been delivered, I wish you good luck in your practice..."
"Thanks!"
Holding the black square box and closing the door, Wei Zhong muttered in his heart:
"In this Jiuzhou, the people who send out Kung Fu are actually pill-forming ones. It's quite a luxury."
After rummaging around on the square box, he took out his ID card and put it close to the sensor. The sealed square box was immediately unlocked.
Wei Zhong was able to see a dark green jade slip placed in the box.
There is an inscription in large characters on the jade slip: "Spring and Autumn Wood Refining Art."
"I finally got part of it. I don't know how long it will take to raise the complete five methods and break through the Void Refining."
However, Wei Zhong has the ability to exchange krypton level for life span, so he can afford to wait.
When his spiritual consciousness penetrated into the jade slip, Wei Zhong seemed to have fallen into some mysterious situation. Magic skills flashed through his heart, and the aura in the room automatically moved towards Wei Zhong without wind.
The jade slip in his hand was shattered the moment his spiritual consciousness penetrated it.
For half an hour, Wei Zhong practiced "Spring and Autumn Wood Lian Jue" and entered Qi Refining. The next day, he broke through the first level of Qi Refining to the second level.
For the next seven days, there will be one realm per day, and on the ninth day it will be the ninth level of Qi refining.
On the tenth day, Wei Zhong paused for a moment, seeming to be thinking about the essence of the method.
On the eleventh day, he took out a high-grade foundation-building pill and drank it. The spiritual energy gathered, and Wei Zhong's breakthrough in foundation-building was a matter of course.
Opening his eyes, Wei Zhong couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.
"Sure enough, the two methods of "Refining Water" and "Refining Wood" have the same origin. There is no obstacle in practicing both. Not only is breaking through the realm as easy as eating and drinking, but most importantly, there seems to be no disaster."
Wei Zhongcai didn't feel the slightest bit of the Foundation-Building Heart Demon Tribulation at all, all he felt was the pleasure of completing the level quickly.
Wei Zhong even felt that he could quickly practice all the way to becoming a god without swallowing any treasure pills.
Looking above the panel:
[Exercise method: "Spring and Autumn Wood Refining and Water Technique"·Grandmaster (99%)]
The name of the technique has changed, but it is this final level of proficiency that has not changed much after decades.
“Perhaps when the five methods come together and all step into the state of spiritual transformation, changes will occur.
"Understand the five elements and go straight into refining the void?"
Suppressing his excitement, Wei Zhong continued to practice. This time the foundation building took a little longer. It took a full month for Wei Zhong to break through to the middle stage of foundation building.
At this time, Huang Shuya and others sent a letter, saying that the mission was about to start, so Wei Zhong did not have enough time to continue practicing.
He left the retreat, took a flying car, and gathered again at Min Laiqing's research institute.
He finally explained to everyone, and then took out four talismans of various colors and handed them to the four people.
Huang Shuya seemed to be shocked for a moment when she saw the talisman, and Huang Li and Chu Haoming had similar expressions. Only Cen Lianping seemed to have expected it and his face was normal.
When Wei Zhong was curious about what it was, Min Laiqing suddenly turned his head and said:
"This talisman is closely related to my Jiuzhou secret method, and it is of no use to fellow Daoist Jie. If fellow Daoist can practice the "Spring and Autumn Refining Wood Art" to the level of transformation, you can exchange it for one for self-defense."
Wei Zhong kept this in mind and planned to let a few people take a good look at it later to see what it was that could make the transformation so moved.
'Could it be the power of the realm of refining emptiness? ’
“All four of you have been given heavy armor, so you can protect yourself among the monsters without worry, but you must be careful of the sixth-level monster and must not confront it head-on.
“If you have no choice but to meet it, you must escape as soon as possible and wait for the right time to complete the task...
“As for Fellow Daoist Jie, your body refining skills are unparalleled, so you probably don’t need this kind of encumbrance.”
In fact, Wei Zhong was very jealous of the heavy armor magic weapon, but he thought that Jiuzhou would not easily reveal it to him. Even if he exchanged it for merit, it would be very valuable, far less cost-effective than exchanging it for the five methods of Spring and Autumn.
‘Even if the external magic weapon is powerful, it is difficult to break through the limit of the realm. Instead of exchanging the method of refining heavy armor, it is better to collect the five methods of Spring and Autumn to break through the realm and refine the void. ’
After the four people were ready, Wei Zhong set off with them.
On the way, Wei Zhong asked to take a look at the talisman. Huang Shuya and others were hesitant in their eyes, but only Huang Li handed the talisman to Wei Zhong heartlessly.
Seeing this, Chu Haoming hurriedly stopped him and said:
"Oriole!"
The latter responded:
"What's wrong with taking a look? It won't cost you a piece of meat."
On the other side, Wei Zhong had already taken the talisman and carefully examined it. The "Time Treasure Record" in his sea of consciousness turned to the "wood" page without wind. The runes on it flickered, faintly forming the shape of the talisman in his hand.
"Sure enough, this talisman is related to the laws of the Nine Provinces Heavenly Dao."
Wake up Lei Long, who was also shocked when he saw this scene:
"How is it possible for a small world?"
Such a world with obvious rules obviously shocked Lei Long, not to mention that people in the Nine Provinces can even use it.
"Most of the underlying rules of the small world rely on the existence of the upper world, and the rules themselves are extremely secretive. There is absolutely no possibility of being revealed and used by the cultivators of this world.
"This Nine Provinces world is really mysterious. I don't know which middle world it belongs to?"
"Isn't it this demon world? ”
Lei Long shook his head:
“Impossible.”
Wei Zhong then asked several people:
“I wonder where all the ascenders from your world went before Jiuzhou was connected to the demon world?”
Several people wondered why Wei Zhong asked such questions while looking at the talisman, and they were all puzzled:
“Ascend? How can there be ascension in my Jiuzhou?”
Such an answer scared Wei Zhong a lot.
‘Could it be that the ascension channels of Jiuzhou were cut off by unknown accidents?’
“Fellow Daoist Jie, you don’t know that in my Jiuzhou world, there has been no such thing as ascension since the beginning of cultivation. When a cultivator enters the realm of transformation, it is the pinnacle of Jiuzhou.
“There is no way to ascend, only to waste life and wait for death.”
Wei Zhong said unexpectedly:
“This is strange. In my world, there has always been a saying that those who have entered the realm of transformation can ascend to the spirit world. I have also seen several fellows being taken away by the light of heaven.
“The mystery of your world really surprised me. "
Huang Shuya smiled when she heard this:
"Maybe, my Jiuzhou is indeed a little different."
Wei Zhong returned the talisman to Huang Li and expressed his gratitude.
After checking just now, Wei Zhong found that this talisman was not as Min Laiqing said, he could not use it.
On the contrary, with the help of the Time Treasure Record, Wei Zhong could use it without any hindrance.
"There must be a big secret in Jiuzhou, maybe it is related to the "Time Treasure Record" of the adults, and it cannot be given up."
Wei Zhong naturally understood this truth.
Contacting Jiuzhou, finding a suitable practice, and advancing to the realm of refining emptiness are one of the reasons, but the moment he set foot in Jiuzhou, there was a further change, which was to find the connection between the "Time Treasure Record" and the Jiuzhou Heavenly Dao.
The flying car fled for a long time, passing through the dense steel forest, and arrived at a space channel.
Wei Zhong looked at the two big characters hanging high opposite the platform:
"Luohu".
"This is where we are going this time. "
Cen Lianping explained:
The space channel here was developed not long ago, and the defense city on the opposite side has not been built yet because of the dragon beast invasion.
"Dragon beast invasion? There are many dragon monsters on the opposite side?"
The latter nodded slowly:
"Indeed, there are many, and their strength level is not low, almost comparable to the Jade Peak.
"However, these dragon beasts do not have a strong desire to attack. They just destroy the defense city and drive us away. They have no intention of actively invading.
"In order to avoid creating another Jade Peak battlefield, the top leaders stopped occupying this area. Only a group of relatively experienced monks like me were sent to explore alone or in small teams.
"That secret place and the strange dragon beasts in it were discovered during an exploration.
"Afterwards, I waited for many people to test it many times, and then I obtained enough information for this operation."
Huang Shuya had doubts in her eyes:
"Then why send a few of my people? Wouldn't Brother Cen and a few other seniors be more suitable?"
There was a trace of sadness on the latter's face:
"Because he's dead."
The others were shocked when they heard him continue to explain:
"During the last exploration, we wanted to take the dragon beast directly, but we were affected by a strange milky white barrier.
"Our magic power and physical body are all stagnated, but only our spiritual will can still move.
"If I hadn't possessed the Yuan Mysterious Law in my lower body, which had shaken my magic power, and I had escaped from the influence in time, I would have been buried in the dragon's claws like those of my colleagues."
"Why didn't you remind me to wait before?" Chu Haoming became calm after hearing this.
Cen Lianping glanced at the worried crowd:
"Don't worry, the influence of the barrier has been broken by Jiuzhou. After the last upgrade of your spiritual heavy armor, you have corresponding methods to deal with it.
"The weird methods that were once enough to control us are no longer effective."
After hearing this, several people sighed in unison.
"What about you?"
Wei Zhong's gaze gradually became a little dangerous, and he couldn't help but feel a little twitchy when he looked at Cen Lianping.
‘Sure enough, this person is hiding quite deeply. I’m afraid he is not comparable to the late stage of divine transformation as Huang Shuya said, but is actually in the late stage of divine transformation, let alone a layman. ’
Sighing at how well-hidden the person in front of him was, Cen Lianping quickly explained:
"Fellow Taoist Jie does not need to participate in the capture of the dragon beast. He is just on guard for us on the periphery. There is no need to take risks."
"I hope so."
Wei Zhong withdrew his gaze, and Cen Lianping breathed a sigh of relief, only to find that there was a lot of cold sweat left on his back.
"Are there any other dangers behind the white barrier that can control the monk's body and spiritual power?"
Cen Lianping shook his head and explained:
"No, at that time I and a few others were only an arm's length away from the dragon beast. If there was any danger, it would only exist within the dragon beast itself.
"But its realm is not high, only about the fourth level. There is not much pressure on me, and it is unlikely that the realm will be covered..."
Finally, after Cen Lianping, the witness, explained what he had experienced, everyone moved towards the air passage.
Wei Zhong's consciousness trembled, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw a dark environment.
"Underground or in a cave?"
He turned around and looked at the people around him, all of whom were faintly awake.
"The space passage here is located inside Lingshan. Walking along the cliff, you can reach the outside world through a narrow mountain crevice."
With Cen Lianping leading the way, several people followed one by one. After walking for a long time, they finally saw the light.
After leaving the mountain crevice, Wei Zhong and others were on the mountainside rock peaks.
The screams of monsters rang in my ears. I looked up and saw a group of dragons flying high in the sky not far away, circling around the ground...
Cen Lianping pointed into the distance:
"That's where our destination is."
