909 The Way Forward

The question in Zhang Yan's heart is not difficult to understand in Huang Tianyu's view.The premise is just to compare the changes in Zhang Yan to the evolution of the world like it.

"The purple qi you pulled merged into your Dao Dan, and a certain change occurred in the Dao Dan, making it tainted with the breath that should belong to the world. The accumulation of primordial purple qi later also intensified this change. Until this time you Absorbing a large amount of the original power of the world has pushed the change over the most critical hurdle in one fell swoop, which is why we have the current result..."

The evolution of the world has only direction but no details.Sometimes even the direction is not necessary, just let nature take its course, and it will be what it evolves.To interfere or to change, this is not an action that evolution should have in the eyes of a world consciousness like Huang Tianyu.

Therefore, it is "normal" that Zhang Yan cannot control the changes in his Dao Danli, and it is even "normal" that he has been in danger because of this.

It's just that these "normal" things will indeed look extremely "weird" when they fall on Zhang Yan.

"Has there been any creatures similar to me in your inheritance?" Although Zhang Yan did not want to admit that he was undergoing a life-level change like Chaohuang Tianyu, he had absolutely no relevant information for him to analyze.At least for now, Huang Tianyu's guess is actually similar to his own guess.

"No, if I saw you, I would be reminded of this situation. It is still blank, which means that you are also the first special case to appear in the inheritance of the world.

If you want to judge further, the best way is to find another world where you can drain the original power of the world and try again.See what else can happen to that sea of ​​stars inside you.

If the change of Xinghai is to gradually include your entire immortal body and soul, or if it is completely embedded in every inch of your soul and immortal body, then you will basically slowly become a world like mine.

If Xinghai is still cruising, or other changes, always maintaining relative independence from your primordial spirit and immortal body, then you should be taking a new path that does not belong to the level of the world or the level of creatures.How to evolve later is really not seeing the direction at all. "

After Huang Tianyu finished speaking, he disappeared by himself.Leaving Zhang Yan on the terrace of Dengyun Hall looking at the sea of ​​clouds in front of him, he was speechless for a long time.

It can't be said that he was depressed, but Zhang Yan's mood must be quite complicated.

I thought I was cultivating immortals, but after practicing, I found that I was not cultivating immortals, but an unprecedented and strange way of cultivation.It is even possible that this road will be opened by himself from now on, otherwise the road ahead may be gone.

"But where is my way forward?"

Before leaving, Zhang Yan found the practice method of the golden immortal in the Wanxiangzhu.Although at the stage of Jinxian, there are very few methods and classics, but after all, there are still some for Zhang Yan to use as a reference.

Especially for the position of Daluo after Jinxian, there is a clearer context guidance.Let Zhang Yan, who is a dark gold body, still be like a bright light, not to be in the dark.

According to the Taoist scriptures, although the difference between Daluo Jinxian and Jinxian is only two more words, it is these two words that cause a huge gap between Daluo Jinxian and Jinxian.

Da Luo is not a simple title, but has another meaning: Immortality!

From the beginning of cultivation, whether it is the initial Qi-Entraining Realm or the Profound Realm, or Human Immortals, Celestial Immortals, including Golden Immortals, they all have lifespan restrictions.It's just that there are huge differences in the restrictions.

The Qi Entraining Realm doesn't live longer than a few decades, and the Tongxuan Realm doesn't live longer than thousands of years.After becoming a fairy, the life span is still continuing.It's just that the time span is changed from "year" to "huiyuan".

But although Huiyuan is long, sometimes it is so long that the immortals themselves forget that they will die.But time is not in a hurry, what should come will always come.

In addition to dying, immortals also have disasters.The biggest and most widespread is the decline of the sky.

What is the decline of the sky?It can be roughly understood as "plague".A terminal illness that belongs only to immortals.Whether you are a human immortal, a celestial immortal, or a golden immortal, if you are unlucky and you will be targeted by the decline of the sky, it will take three to five years at the earliest, or more than a hundred years at the slowest, and you will undoubtedly die.

This is fate, no matter how good you are, Jinxian has to accept this fate.

Therefore, Da Luo, who is essentially different from Jinxian, is not actually an external force.Strength is the gap accumulated due to the time span, and the essential difference is the immortality represented by the word Da Luo.

It will not perish because of the fall of the sky and the earth, nor will it perish by the decline of the sky.Immortal, immortal, eternal existence, is the Daluo Jinxian!

The key to Daluo's immortality is said in the Taoist scriptures: Destiny depends on the number of days, hides in luck, avoids disasters, and avoids death, so that you can be immortal!

In just over twenty words, it seems simple, but ninety-nine percent of the world's immortals are blocked from entering.

And it was precisely after stepping into the Golden Immortal realm and seeing the Daoist classics in the realm of the Golden Immortal that Zhang Yan officially saw "fate" and "luck" fall directly on the main thread of practice in the realm of practice for the first time.It is completely different from the previous context of how to cultivate skills, how to comprehend the Tao, and how to penetrate the rules.Appears more erratic.

In fact, after seeing the main line of Jinxian's practice for the first time, Zhang Yan also understood a doubt he had always had before, that is why the people of Mingyue Valley are so keen on the technique of extension, and use it to determine the direction of their own power.At that time, he still felt that the people in Mingyue Valley were a little too clever.Only after I became a Golden Immortal did I realize that this is not the human brain axis of Mingyue Valley, but that after the Golden Immortal practice, they need to understand and practice the empty doorway about fate and luck, so they will naturally regard Yanshu as a treasure .

In fact, Zhang Yan also decided his future path in the nine words of "Destiny depends on the number of days, hidden in luck".Even though the Golden Immortal's body was dark gold back then, there is still an obvious tendency to continue walking along this road.

But after the Dao Dan exploded and became a sea of ​​stars, everything changed.Just as Huang Tianyu said, if he didn't eventually become a life form at the world level like Huang Tianyu, then he would be another kind of life that was neither a creature nor a world.It has both the characteristics of living beings and the characteristics of the world.

The blending and chaos of the two qualities will naturally overturn all his subsequent cultivation methods.

Jinxian needs to go to "immortality" to get Feng Daluo.But is there really only one way to go, "put your fate on the number of days and hide it in your luck"?

Is what the Daoist book says the only way?

Now the path in the Daoist scriptures is dead.Zhang Yan doesn't even count people and immortals, so how should the road numbers in the Taoist script be used?

Zhang Yan stood on the terrace behind Dengyun Hall and looked at the sea of ​​clouds beyond the mountain, the sun rose and the sun set...

a few days later.

Zhang Yan suddenly opened his mouth as if talking to himself: "Only living beings perish, and the heaven and the earth naturally do not fall. I am no longer a living being, and I have the breath of the heaven and the earth. Is there another solution to this immortality?"

Chapter 910

The void is vast, even if it is not an unknown domain, the area that has been opened up is enough to accommodate an infinite world.There are countless creatures in this infinity, and countless evolutions.

But there are always some unusual creatures that happen to be in a delicate position.Every move may set off extremely huge waves.And they themselves are ignorant of it.

Or have a feeling, but don't know the far-reaching geometry afterwards.

Hao Xuemen.Hilltop Hall.

Xue E has not settled down to practice for a long time.This is the first time since he obtained the secret method of the Great Desolate World as his own reference, and used it to sort out the loopholes and wrong details of past practice, he has no way to calm down about practice.

This is not normal, the reason is not the trouble in practice, but something in the heart, messed up.

"How's the inquiry going?"

This is not a direct speech, but a soul transmission.And Xue E said another thing when speaking.Talk about daily affairs, but the sound transmission has other questions.

It was Li Yan, the elder who had been in charge of Hao Xuemen's external affairs, who spent so much time chatting with Xue E.

Li Yan is also one of the people in Haoxuemen who benefited from the various secret methods of the Great Desolate World.Now that she has stepped into the Earth Immortal, her cultivation base and methods have made her status in Haoxuemen directly rise.After Dahongtian replaced Yuhao Great World Alliance, she was also the first-line hero of Haoxuemen's wandering forces, and won Xue E's appreciation and trust.

In the same spirit transmission, Li Yan replied: "Master, the situation is really as you expected, something is very wrong!"

"Tell me."

"Sect Master, I have asked people to inquire about all aspects of the Yanshan Alliance. Some important places such as the Foreign Affairs Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall have asked people with different relationships, and the responses are the same. That is the internal affairs of the Yanshan Alliance. Regarding our Haoxuemen, there are still serious internal differences of opinion as before, and we cannot reach a consensus, and no one has mentioned that we will be punished or send envoys to investigate thoroughly in the near future. The arguing has to continue.

But something is wrong about Castle Peak Wonderland.I checked that Deacon Chen who said he wanted to find clues to Huang Tianyu and ran to our Dahongtian to ask for help, and finally stayed in our door for a few days.

That Deacon Chen's full name is Chen Haipeng, and he is a direct disciple of the master of Qingshan Xianwaishitang.The status in the door is not low.His status was almost the same as that of Lin Yumei who was in charge of coming to Dahongtian to deal with Huangtianyu back then.It's just that her cultivation base is slightly inferior to Lin Yumei's.

And the main forces that Chen Haipeng connected with at Qingshan Fairy Foreign Affairs Hall were from the Yanshan Alliance to the original Yuhao Great World Alliance, that is, the border area of ​​the Pastoral School including our Dahongtian.

Moreover, this Chen Haipeng likes alchemy, and he likes to exchange alchemy experience with others when he goes to a place.He is even good friends with several alchemists in the Yuhao Great World Alliance, and it is said that they often get together.

Afterwards, we broke up the Yuhao Great World Alliance. This Chen Haopeng had spoken harshly in public in the Qingshan Wonderland, and his hostility towards us was obvious.But……"

Xue E took over the conversation and said: "But such a person who doesn't like us, and even has obvious hostility, is actually very kind in our door. He also took the initiative to help us arrange a lot of magic circles in the door, and Went to the various worlds below to show up and help us stabilize some of the dissatisfaction below.

Tsk tsk, it's the overall situation of the people in Qingshan Wonderland that puts the most importance on it, so don't you interfere with official affairs based on your personal likes and dislikes?Or does this Chen Haipeng have other schemes with ulterior motives?Hehe, what are they planning? "

Li Yan continued: "Sect Master, calculations are inevitable. And the plan should be not small. Otherwise, Chen Haipeng would not even hide it from the Yanshan Alliance.

But do you still remember the ins and outs of Chen Haipeng when he came to our side?In fact, looking back carefully now, there are some clues that can be used for scrutiny. "

"I remember that you were the one who was in charge of contacting Chen Haipeng all the way back then. What did you think of?" Xue E also had his own thoughts in his heart.Even after Li Yan said those things earlier, he already had some guesses.Let’s not talk about it first, let’s listen to what Li Yan said.

Li Yan nodded, continued to talk to Xue E about the daily affairs of the sect, and continued through voice transmission: "The master of the sect is right. Back then, it was Chen Haipeng who was in charge of the whole process for the disciples.

At that time, Chen Haipeng wandered around, the most curious, and the place where he stayed the longest was our teaching hall.Speaking of curiosity, Haoxuemen's method is sharp, and it has been refined rapidly in the past few hundred years, and it seems that there have been some new enlightenment discoveries.You made an excuse to get away with it.

At the same time, Chen Haipeng also repeatedly asked about all the communication between us and Zhang Yanmen before the disappearance of Huangtianyu.We have already reported these situations to the higher authorities several times.It's not unusual for him to ask repeatedly.

The disciples thought that Chen Haipeng's malicious intentions were aimed at our relationship with Duanya Mountain.It's just that the point is not clear.It doesn't seem to want to turn over old scores, but to find something new. "

Li Yan got stuck at this point.She could tell where Chen Haipeng's general purpose was.But what it is, she can't continue to push forward.

This is not a problem of Li Yan's ability, nor is it that she doesn't want to continue to deduce.Rather, there is not enough information.

But as far as the message is concerned, Xue E is much stronger than Li Yan.

"Do you still remember the news I told you when Zhang Yan's envoys came to you? For example, the deadly loner who became famous in the Chaos faction. Counting the time, you should be able to guess something here."

"...Are you saying that Chen Haipeng actually came here to verify the identity relationship between Zhang Yan and the deadly maverick from the Chaos faction?! Are they suspecting that Zhang Yan has returned to our Dahongtian?!" Li Yan's reaction was not slow, and he quickly thought of the real purpose of Chen Haipeng's series of strange behaviors based on Xue E's reminder.

"The dead-hearted lone walker in the chaos faction and Zhang Yan are probably the same person. There are so many places for gold leaf. Now Zhang Yan and that dead-hearted lone walker are the ones to accept. And Zhang Yan can't stay in the pastoral school. If you go down, where else can you go if you don't go to the Chaos faction?

In addition, the reason why the deadly lone man made so many enemies and attracted the siege is basically the ruins of the sword tomb.We didn't have a chance to participate back then, but people from Qingshan Wonderland must have participated.They also have the possibility of meeting the dead loner in this matter.Perhaps it was in the ruins of the sword tomb that Zhang Yan showed his feet and was discovered by the people of Qingshan Wonderland.

There should be two reasons why Qingshan Wonderland connected us to this matter.

One, gold leaf.This is also the most direct reason.In the entire void, there is no one else who collects gold leaf in the pastoral and chaos factions except for the dead and lonely.And we were not even qualified to step into the ruins of the Sword Tomb before, let alone be interested in the seemingly useless gold leaf.So they must be aware of our secret collection of gold leaf.

Second, destroy Yuhao Great World Alliance.Our strength is insufficient, and we need helpers if we want to destroy the Yuhao Great World Alliance.Where can help come from?And why dare to help us?With Qingshan Wonderland's ability, a little research on this matter can find out the clues.As long as it is found that someone from the pastoral faction made the move, the answer will be ready. "

Li Yan was startled, and followed Xue E's words and hurriedly asked: "Master, you mean that we have been targeted by Qingshan Wonderland long ago? Long before the Gongjian envoy reminded us?"

"Correct."

"Then our secrets aren't..."

Chapter 911 Starfire

Xue E frowned, Li Yan's last sentence was exactly what he was thinking and worrying about.

The secret must not be kept.If Qingshan Wonderland had been staring at them so long ago, then every move in Hao Xuemen would not be able to escape their eyes.

In addition, even though Xue E was reminded by Gong Jian, the envoy from the cliff mountain, he still failed to detect any signs of surveillance in Haoxuemen.It's just that the uneasiness in my heart is getting stronger.

What does this mean?It means that either what Gong Jian said was just a random guess, or that the monitors at Haoxuemen's side are far stronger than Xue E.That's why Haoxuemen didn't notice anything.

According to this way of thinking, although Xue E hopes that it is the former, that is, he hopes that Gong Jian, the messenger of the cliff mountain, is talking nonsense.However, the results of rationality and exploration all show that the fact is most likely the latter guess.

How explosive is Haoxuemen's secret?Xue E himself knows best.Once these secrets are released, Haoxuemen will definitely die.A single hat of "collaborating with the Chaos faction" can doomed people.

"They didn't do anything, they should be waiting."

Xue E thinks that Qingshan Fairyland has been staring at Haoxuemen for so long but has been slow to act, and may be suppressing Haoxuemen's strangeness from the side to prevent others from discovering, its purpose is to wait for the opportunity.At least it's not yet time for them to make a move.

"What are you waiting for?" Li Yan was already feeling cold.She understands that Haoxuemen is much stronger now than it was hundreds of years ago.But in front of the green mountain fairyland, it is still as weak as a bug.At this point the situation is already at stake.

"Waiting for someone, to be precise, it should be waiting for Zhang Yan. Whether it is the secret of the gold leaf, or the inheritance of the Great Desolate World, these are all pinned on Zhang Yan. Destroy our Hao Xuemen or capture and kill a few people like bows." Seeing such an envoy doesn't make much sense. Even if you do that, you will definitely scare the snake. The gain outweighs the loss for Qingshan Wonderland."

Li Yan nodded, she understood.But it was still hard to let go of my worries.Like a sword hanging above the head, no matter how long it takes to stick it down, it is not easy to be relieved that this is a matter of life and death.

"Master, what should we do now?"

"..." Xue E couldn't give a clear answer for a while.It's ridiculous to use a mantis' arms as a car, but you can't just sit and wait for death, right?

After being silent for a while, Xue E said: "What you and I talked about today, you go back and sort it out, and pass it on to the main elders in the form of jade slips. Let them participate together.

Now, at the time of life and death, we can only brainstorm.

But don't even think about the choice of taking the initiative to confess your confession.Even if we want to change the door, no one will want it.We are the bait, and the bait will be discarded in the end whether the fish is caught or not.So if you want to survive, you can only find another way to struggle, instead of praying for the other party's mercy.

This general direction cannot be wrong. "

Xue E has always been used to being arbitrary.But the current situation is really too complicated.His own thinking is no longer enough to deal with it meticulously.So we can only hang the problem high and let the elders in the door participate together to find a way.

"Go, be very careful. Anything you do or say, you need to cover up. And these covers can't suddenly change too much, you need to maintain the previous context. Even our secrets can't be because of us. Now that I'm aware of it, I deliberately avoid it.

In a word, everything we do from now on must have two sets of actions.One set is on the surface and follow the previous rules and habits.One set is placed in the dark, using the means we use to survive.Understand? "

"Disciple understands!"

Li Yan got up with a smile, said goodbye to Xue E and left.The exchange she had with Xue E just now was actually fulfilling Xue E's request in this sound transmission.Regardless of the content of the sound transmission, she was just talking about some daily affairs with Xue E.I am not worried about being intercepted by "the wall has ears".

After Li Yan left, Xue E returned to his practice room inside the ice wall and sat cross-legged, as if continuing to practice his lessons.But in fact, only he knows that what he can pretend to be in his mind at this time is not related to practice, but thinking about how to break the situation.

For a period of time afterwards, Haoxuemen looked normal from top to bottom.The practice that should be practiced, the one that should go out should go out.Even the gathering of the gold leaf has not stopped, and it is still exploring in secret.

But the elders of Haoxuemen are much more diligent than before.From time to time, we get together to drink tea and chat.There was also a lot of chatting, including trivial matters in the sect, the situation of the Qingshan Alliance, and the cultivation troubles of the disciples of their respective sects, etc.There will even be some exchanges on spiritual practice.

Of course, the perception of practice cannot be expressed in words, and the jade slips are more suitable for communication at the level of thinking.So there will always be jade slips interspersed in the party.

In the end, as the elder in charge of the foreign affairs hall, Li Yan also went to the main peak hall to meet the sect master Xue E more frequently than before.When chatting, he also began to get used to leaving some jade slips as "sorting out the situation in the door" for Xue E to check.

It is still the sound transmission of the soul.This is the most confidential way Xue E can think of.As long as the soul sound transmission distance is close enough, even someone with a higher cultivation base than him will not be able to detect their small movements.Not to mention spying on the specific content of the soul sound transmission.

"So the unified idea now is to drag Zhang Yan into the water in advance?" Xue E said through voice transmission.

"Yes, the master of the sect. According to the results of repeated discussions with the main elders of the sect these days, and at the same time follow the general direction you have set, it is the most feasible way to pull Zhang Yan into the water. He is not only the main reason why Qingshan Fairyland is eyeing us , but also has the power we urgently need now.

If Zhang Yan joins directly, we will have more room for maneuver in the formulation of future plans. "

"Zhang Yan's strength is still unknown. But we can be sure that he is stronger than us. However, it is still too far away to deal with Qingshan Wonderland. But there is nothing wrong with it. Pulling him into the game can increase our choice. Besides, how could he be absent since he was the instigator?

But it's not enough.

If we want to compete with Qingshan Wonderland, the most fundamental way is not to be ahead of us.We should know how much our Haoxuemen weighs.In addition, Zhang Yan's Cliff Mountain is not enough for others to take a few more glances.So external force is needed. "

Li Yan got it right.Some things are not suitable for her to say directly, Xue E needs to click first, so that she and the elders below can start talking.Otherwise, with Haoxuemen's ethos under the risk of overreaching, no one would dare to talk nonsense.
