Fulu Rubik's Cube

After a moment of silence, Zhang Ke raised his right hand, which was constantly collapsing, and lightly pointed the tip of his index finger at the void in front of him.

Where the fingertips fell, a point of platinum light shone through, and ripples appeared in the void again, creating a mirror-like water curtain thousands of miles long. Countless runes moved in the water curtain as if they had life, forming a regular Taoist rune.

The void is the paper, the divine thoughts are the ink, and the Tao becomes the talisman!

Just at this moment, a green sword light emerged from the void and hovered in front of Zhang Keshuang.

The sword light faded away, Qingmei frowned as he watched Zhang Ke's body constantly crumbling.

"Why didn't you wait for me to come?"

Long before the war, the two had discussed how to deal with Tianzun.

According to the plan, Qingmei will be the main attacker because she is a sword cultivator and has the strongest attack power.

Zhang Ke's 'Ruyi' avenue is better at dealing with complex situations, and he controls the Taoist weapon [Ruyi Lock] to provide assistance.

But how could Zhang Ke let Qingmei face Tianzun directly? Although Qingmei was powerful, he had no way to protect himself.

In previous cross-level battles, he had almost died many times.

Therefore, Zhang Ke would attack Yuan Fa Tian Zun alone.

Looking at the tiny figure with green eyebrows in front of him, Zhang Ke smiled gently.

"It's just a divine thought projected by the Heavenly Lord. Why bother Madam to take action?"

How could Qingmei not understand Zhang Ke's intentions? She said with a hint of indignation:

"Pity!"

Looking up and seeing Zhang Ke's body constantly disintegrating, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Are you feeling well?"

Zhang Ke did not answer the question. He looked at the empty water curtain that was dispersing thousands of miles away and suddenly said:

“I have always believed that the collective is more powerful than the individual.

Over the past thousand years, I have worked hard to promote spiritual civilization, but..."

Zhang Ke stared at Qingmei with misty eyes and said slowly:

“If I can’t fight against Yuan Fa Tian Zun, the life and death of the billions of armies in the Heaven Court can be destroyed by Yuan Fa Tian Zun’s breath.

Is the essence of spiritual practice to bring great power to the individual?

Or gather people to develop civilization?"

Listening to Zhang Ke's slightly confused words, Qingmei looked at Zhang Ke intently. After taking a closer look, his heart trembled slightly.

The area between Zhang Ke's eyebrows darkened, and a black gas was covering and rolling like a dark cloud.

Qingmei understood that the backlash from Zhang Ke's annihilation of the countless lives of the Chichong Three Stars had begun.

“You are not wrong.

If this world does not promote the development of spiritual practice civilization, it is impossible for an individual to succeed in ascending to the great world.

If there had not been countless practitioners who had contributed to the development of civilization, this world would have long since become a hatchery for the Zerg, a slave star for the spirit world, and a place where immortal practitioners' spirit stones were deprived.

It is true that the essence of spiritual practice is to attribute great power to oneself.

But the individual and the collective complement each other. The individual drives the collective, and the collective drives the individual. The two promote each other.

This is like a person pushing a cart. On flat ground, he can do it alone, but going uphill requires the help of many people, and going downhill requires the help of many people.

You can fight against Yuan Fa Tian Zun's divine thoughts. It seems that you rely on yourself, but in fact you rely on the power of the crowd."

The dark clouds between Zhang Ke's brows dissipated a little, and he calmed down and sighed:

“The more I practice, the more confused I become.

Why do we need to practice?

What is the essence of spiritual practice?

Is there an end to spiritual practice? "

After asking the three questions, Zhang Ke couldn't help but laugh and shook his head slightly.

At this time, only Zhang Ke's head remained, and his entire body had turned into a ball of dark golden sand covering a thousand miles.

With a thought, endless yellow sand wrapped around his head and rushed forward. The whole person instantly passed through the water curtain, creating a circle of ripples while directly penetrating the Taoist talisman and appeared from behind the water curtain.

And above the Taoist talisman water curtain, there was a phantom figure left behind.

A platinum-colored light exploded from the Taoist talisman water curtain, and the illusory figure instantly turned from virtual to real, revealing Zhang Ke's portrait.

This portrait presented in the water curtain of Taoist talismans is exactly the same as Zhang Ke in appearance, breath, vitality and "spirit".

At this moment, Zhang Ke's breath suddenly disappeared.

The Secret Method of Ruyi: Seeking Truth through Falsehood

The so-called borrowing, as stated in the Taoist scriptures, is that all things can be transformed into gas and can also be used as tools. This is a kind of carrier.

Everything, including the body, magic power, soul, desire, anger, sadness, worry, joy, etc., can be transformed into a carrier.

Seeking truth in spiritual practice means finding one's true self and eliminating the false and retaining the true.

Through this technique, Zhang Ke transferred all of his "essence, energy and spirit" and cause and effect through the talisman paper, and the cause and effect contained in his body were all retained in the Taoist talisman water curtain.

This secret method was extremely magical. After Zhang Ke wore the Taoist Water Curtain, not only were the injuries on his body healed, but even the backlash black fog that had destroyed the Three Stars of Chichong was also retained in the portrait in the Taoist Water Curtain.

Then the Taoist water curtain began to burn from the outside to the inside, and in an instant it turned into flying ashes and scattered everywhere.

Zhang Ke was like an independent creature born, pure and clean.

Of course, it is impossible to eliminate such huge causes and injuries with just one magical secret technique. What is actually consumed is Zhang Ke’s own merit and luck.

After passing through the Taoist water curtain, Zhang Ke has returned to his normal size. The moment he turned around, he had crossed a thousand miles and arrived in front of Qingmei.

Smile.

"Qinger."

Just as he was about to speak, he noticed that Qingmei's expression was not right. He was startled and followed Qingmei's gaze to lift a strand of hair beside his cheek.

But I saw that there were some white hairs mixed in with the originally jet-black hair.

Zhang Ke was stunned for a moment, looked inward, and after a moment, he suddenly smiled.

"The backlash of karma is indeed powerful!"

There was a hint of worry in Qingmei's eyes.

"Is there anything wrong?"

"It's okay, it just shortens my life by three thousand years."

As he spoke, Zhang Ke loosened his left hand, and the slingshot of rules in his hand dispersed. The rules of the great way merged into the way of heaven, and the merits and luck gathered in the bow bag to manifest as a nine-curtain crown, which was put on Zhang Ke's head again.

He stretched out his right hand towards the depths of the void.

A dim yellow light came from afar, and the Taoist artifact [Time and Space Lock] condensed into a ring and was worn on the thumb of the left hand.

After cleaning up his mess, Zhang Ke turned to look at the battlefield between the two worlds.

At the moment when Yuan Fa Tian Zun's divine consciousness was destroyed, the two Dao Zun of Hong Huang Dao, Pan Jiang and Hao Ri, showed a trace of misery on their faces.

The divine consciousness of the Saint Tianzun was destroyed, the Taoist Master of Divine Power fell, and hundreds of millions of monks from the three major sects of Chichong, Chenxiao, and Tengkun, as well as countless lives, were exterminated.

At this point, the "Honghuang Dao" and the Azure Realm formed a mortal feud, and there was no room for easing.

The two men realized this and knew they would die today.

Without any hope in their hearts, the two men let go and launched a counterattack regardless of their lives.

At the same time, the war between the two battlefields reignited.

"Boom boom boom~~"

The Dao Zun battlefield suddenly erupted in violent fluctuations, and three rays of light flew towards various places in the void like comets.

In the void, there were voices of the great Dao that sounded slightly exasperated.

"Xingyao is a rat, don't behave like a human being!"

"Xingyao, I will never let you go!!"

Just now, Daoist Xingyao and several others from the 'Zhu Tian Xing Meng' secretly sent messages to Daoist Tian Sa and Daoist Sheng Feng.

They agreed to attack together with all their strength, and then escape separately.

Everyone understands the significance of the shattering of Yuanfa Tianzun's divine consciousness. Coupled with the death of Shenli Daozun, loopholes appeared in the rules contained in the 'Book of the Great Dao of Unity'.

Therefore, everyone had second thoughts and all agreed with the suggestions of Xingyao Daozun and others.

Unexpectedly, after everyone worked together to break the blockade of the territory built by the Taoist masters of "Heaven", Xingyao Taoist Master and three other immortal cultivators escaped without hesitation.

Taoist Xingyao didn't care about the resentment of the Taoist masters from the 'Xuanqing Taoist Alliance' and the 'Sanxiu Alliance'.

Ten thousand years ago, he could abandon and leave without hesitation when he found that the Blue World was about to collapse, and today he can naturally repeat the same scene.

The power of Dao Zun is so strong that even though the entire Luoxianxu is covered by the magic array of "Heaven", the space travel is forbidden.

But his title of 'Star Glory' is because he can borrow the power of the stars.

As long as you leave Luoxianxu, you can instantly connect with the power of the stars and escape across the star field.

Taoist Xingyao felt extremely aggrieved. He just wanted to come back to reap the rewards, but ended up like this.

There is no way to return to the pure world of Yuanming, and one might have to hide from the hunt of Yuanfa Tianzun.

The more I thought about it, the more I hated him, and I couldn't help but have evil thoughts in my heart.

"Blue Realm, wait, I will spread your anchor beacon to all realms, and you just wait for countless realms to conquer you!"

While thinking, Taoist Xingyao did not forget to look around.

You can't go to the place where the Emperor of Heaven is. This guy even dares to confront the Heavenly Lord.

The four directions of heaven and earth are all guarded by the armies of Heaven. After a brief hesitation, Taoist Xingyao decided to break through from the south.

There are heavenly soldiers above and ghosts below. The Azure Dragon is good at entangling, the White Tiger is ferocious, the Black Tortoise has unparalleled defense, and only the Vermillion Bird is the most violent and the most easily affected by the outside world, so Xingyao Daozun made his choice.

"Humph, it's just a Nanming Lihuo. I have the protection of the stars, so I think I can withstand it and leave."

Deciding on the move, Xingyao Daozun used all his strength to pry open the rules of the avenue to travel through the void. He knew that this was his only chance. Once the Emperor of the Heavenly Court was free or the others surrendered, he would have no chance to escape.

When a Taoist master moves at full speed, his speed is truly unimaginable. It only took two quarters of an hour for Taoist master Xingyao to cross thousands of miles of void and arrive at the south of Luoxianxu guarded by Wanxiang.

Without any hesitation, Taoist Xingyao rushed directly towards the 'Nanming Lihuo Array' that manifested a blazing sea of ​​fire.

He wanted to break through the sea of ​​fire in one go.

But before he could get within a thousand miles of the sea of ​​fire, he suddenly saw a hundred-mile-long pillar of fire extending silently from the raging sea of ​​fire, rushing towards Xingyao Daozun like a mountain.

This pillar of fire is linked together, and the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches form a circle of hexagrams that are entangled like a lock.

There was still a distance of a hundred miles, but the orange-red flame at the front of the fire column had already roasted Taoist Xingyao's whole body and made his magic power boil.

Taoist Xingyao was horrified that just by mobilizing his vital energy he could affect the balance of his magic power.

This kind of strength is not weaker than mine at all!

With a thought, the whole person scattered and turned into thousands of starlight bursting out. At this moment, it was like the stars falling.

But the towering fire pillar ignored the scattered stars, and the front end of the fire pillar was as crushing as a mountain.

Taoist Xingyao discovered that the target of the fire column was actually himself.

It seemed slow but was actually fast. In just a moment, the front end of the fire column hit the Taoist Master Xingyao directly.

"Boom~~"

Endless starlight burst out from the top of the Sky-reaching Fire Pillar, and the azure galaxy spread out for thousands of miles.

Taoist Xingyao escaped thousands of miles away with the help of a ray of starlight. His whole body was covered with cracks, and flames were emitting from every pore.

"This road is blocked, so surrender!"

A powerful female voice was heard from the sea of ​​fire.

Taoist Xingyao ignored the Nanming Fire that was constantly burning on his body and looked extremely ugly.

Without even showing his face, he injured me with one move. Is the strength of this Southern Ming Suzaku so strong?

He looked back in confusion.

He could vaguely see that one of the other two Dao Masters who escaped with him was frozen by the black-blue river, and the other was cut in half and stepped on by a one-eyed man.

Turning back, Taoist Xingyao spoke bitterly.

"My fellow Taoist is so polite. I am willing to surrender. Is that possible?"

Before he could finish, he heard voices coming from the sea of ​​fire across the street.

"The Emperor has issued an order that all realms can surrender, but only immortal cultivators will not accept it!"

"."

Taoist Xingyao's face turned red, not leaving himself any dignity at all!

He gave up the last glimmer of hope in his heart and transformed himself into a ray of starlight, rushing straight into the sea of ​​fire.

"Boom~~~"

The ensuing war in the void battlefield between the two worlds was unremarkable.

The divine consciousness of Yuanfa Tianzun was destroyed, the three great Daoists of Honghuang Dao fell, and the three stars of Chichong collapsed into ashes.

The strength of the Azure Realm's 'Heaven' was fully revealed.

The 'Xuanqing Dao League' is a union of multiple sects, while the 'Sanxiu Alliance' is mostly composed of individuals.

These people do not have the determination and willingness to unite against a common enemy and face death with indifference.

After Zhang Ke personally announced the decree that those who surrendered would not be killed, almost half of the monks did not even dare to raise any follow-up requests and simply surrendered.

As for the other half, they were forced to stop when the situation became hopeless.

Of course, there are exceptions. Even if the people of the "Alliance of Stars" surrendered voluntarily, they were all sealed and captured one by one. Those who dared to resist were killed on the spot.

Since the two worlds officially went to war in 'Luoxianxu', before Yuanfa Tianzun revealed his divine consciousness, it took the 'Heavenly Court' army twenty-four years to capture twenty-three stars.

And when Yuanfa Tianzun's divine consciousness was cut off, the next thirteen most difficult stars to conquer were taken one by one in just three years.

In this war between the two worlds, the expeditionary force of 'Heaven' traveled through the void for 101 years and fought for 27 years, a total of 128 years, in which they defeated many invading alliances from the Yuanming Pure Realm in one fell swoop.

In this battle, the 'Heavenly Court' expeditionary force lost eleven Dao Lords, 3,420 Yuanshen Zhen Lords, and 1,896,319 Jindan Zhen Lords.

Compared with the expedition to the Haojing Shangyuan spiritual world, the losses were negligible.

At the same time, the results of this battle were even greater.

A total of three Dao Zuns, forty-one Dao Lords, about 270,000 Yuanshen Zhenjuns, and more than 24 million Jindan Zhenren were killed. Most of the Yuanshen Zhenjuns and Jindan Zhenren who died were disciples of the Honghuang Dao.

In addition, thirty-six stars that could be used for cultivation were seized, thirty-six Taoist masters, one thousand five hundred and eighty-nine Taoist monarchs, nearly eight hundred thousand Yuanshen Zhenjuns, and over eighty billion Jindan Zhenren were captured.

As for other cultivation resources, they are even more immeasurable.

The spoils of this war alone are enough to equal the total development of the Blue Realm over thousands of years.

Leaving aside the resources, the countless captured practitioners are what Zhang Ke values ​​most.

Under the rules of the Heavenly Court, these captives will voluntarily and actively integrate into the Azure Realm cultivation system. Zhang Ke is very confident about this.

After three years of integration, the 'Heavenly Court' expeditionary force reunited as a floating continent and returned.

The dust has settled!

All that was left for the "Luoxianxu" was a void with confused spiritual power, violent vitality, and on the verge of breaking.

There are also three starry sky passages tens of millions of miles long in the sky, engraved with traces of a Heavenly Master being defeated by a Taoist Master.

The spiral galaxy Qiongluo star field.

Yuanming pure realm.

A shocking roar sounded between heaven and earth.

"Ruyi Daozun, damn it!"

Following this sound, the towering mountains shook violently.

"Boom~~Boom~~"

After a while, the mountains transformed into giant rock bodies that stood up from the ground.

Turning his head to look at the direction of Luoxianxu, Yuanfa Tianzun raised his foot and was about to move.

"Haha~, why is Fellow Daoist Yuanfa so angry?"

A clear voice sounded in Yuanfa Tianzun's ears.

Then, a misty green light appeared silently in front of the giant transformed by Yuanfa Tianzun.

"Hmph~!"

Yuan Fa Tian Zun snorted coldly and did not answer.

But I only heard the green shadow in front of me chuckle:

"Oh~~, even the essence of your soul has been damaged, no wonder you are so angry."

Yuanfa Tianzun calmed down, he knew that Taiming Tianzun was reminding him.

Wanli's body shook a few times, and then shrank rapidly, returning to its normal appearance after a moment.

He smiled bitterly and said:

“I spend the whole day hunting geese, only to have my eyes pecked by sparrows.

My disciple Qingrou died, and I wanted to use my mind to avenge her, but unexpectedly my mind was shattered by a Taoist master.

I am so ashamed to say this!"

Tai Ming Tian Zun was slightly stunned. He thought that Yuan Fa Tian Zun was injured by the enemy Tian Zun. After all, Yuan Fa Tian Zun's strength was not too strong at this level of Tian Zun.

But he never expected that he would be injured by a mere Taoist master.

"who?"

Yuanfa Tianzun shook his head and said nothing.

The Azure Realm has just been upgraded to the Great Thousand World, which contains endless resources. How could it share them with others?

Changing the topic:

"I want to avenge my disciples, so I need to leave temporarily. It will take about forty years. Fellow Daoist and Fellow Daoist Weiqing will still be in charge of the affairs in the realm."

Tai Ming Zun frowned and asked:

"You want to go there in person?"

"Ok!"

The misty light was silent for a moment, and finally refused.

"Fellow Daoist Yuanfa has been in seclusion for many years, so perhaps there are some things he is not clear about."

After a brief pause, he continued:

“I am not trying to stop you from taking revenge, but the two worlds of the Azure Sky Flying Flower World and the Chanlin Great Buddha World have joined forces, with a total of five Heavenly Lords guarding outside the realm day and night.

If you leave, regardless of whether you will be ambushed or not, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Daoist Fellow Wei Qing and I to protect this world with only two of us left."

Yuan Fa Tian Zun was stunned for a long time, then murmured.

"If we agree to a ceasefire, how long will it take?"

Tai Ming Tian Zun sighed and said:

"Thirty years ago, your disciple Haochen killed the only daughter of Luoying Tianzun of Feihua Realm, which made Luoying Tianzun furious. Without thousands of years, it would be difficult to calm down his anger."

Yuanfa Tianzun was so angry that his fontanelle was about to burst out. How could it be his own disciple again? He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Unexpectedly, just after he sighed, Yuanfa Tianzun sensed that two lines of cause and effect were broken.

I couldn't help but burst into curse again.

"Damn it, hurting my disciple again!"

This time, even Tai Ming Tian Zun couldn't help but burst into laughter.
