I am evergreen in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 444: Reincarnation Opportunity, Refining the Sword Formation

Deep in the consciousness, nine frame seals of the mysterious ancient stele are arranged in sequence from top to bottom.

In the first life, he was a young talisman master who made seals; in the second life, he was an old man with white beard who had reached the stage of Dan; in the third life, he was Lu Chang'an with flowing light; in the fourth life, he was Taoist Zihuo.

The fifth frame seal is also fully lit.

Unlike the four seals above, there is no human figure in the fifth seal.

"In the fifth life of the Nine Seals Monument, what was absorbed was not a Nascent Soul of the Divine Incarnation level, but was composed of several fragments, not the complete essence of the Divine Soul. Therefore, this method of reincarnation cannot transform it into one's simulated previous life."

Lu Changan had already made this clear from the abstract information fed back from the Nine Seal Stele.

Therefore, he only obtained the memories of the Nascent Souls that were devoured by the Nine Seals Monument, just like a third party looking them up. He could not directly obtain insights and skills inheritance after completing the long-cherished wish of Master Lihuo like he did in the fourth life.

Even so, Lu Changan couldn't help showing joy on his face. Because after the fifth generation of the [Nine Seals] was opened, a new ability was "unsealed".

There is an "Erase" function.

The so-called erasure means erasing a certain life that the Nine Seals Monument has experienced, and experiencing a new reincarnation again.

For example, if one is only in the Qi Refining Stage in the first life, and if one believes that his foundation is too weak, one can start a new reincarnation life to cover and replace the previous one.

Or more simply and violently, devour a Nascent Soul and transform it into a simulated reincarnation of the previous life.

"The Nine Seals Monument is like a record of nine lifetimes. As long as one has enough reincarnation power, theoretically one can continue to reincarnate."

Lu Changan realized that he had touched the core secret of the Nine Seals Stele.

However, this ability to erase and replace would require at least the consumption of the fifth level of reincarnation essence, which Lu Changan is reluctant to give up at the moment.

In addition to this new ability, the scope of the territory where the Fifth Generation can reincarnate independently has been greatly increased.

"In my previous three lives, I was reincarnated in different regions of the human world Tianheng, and never went beyond one world. When I start my fifth life, the range of my choices will not be limited to the current world."

The significant increase in the scope of reincarnation was the biggest surprise Lu Changan received.

The highest limit of the Tianheng Continent in the human world is the Deity Transformation, and every birth is a miracle of heaven and earth.

This is because after the ancient war, the environment of heaven and earth changed drastically and the interface level dropped.

Lu Changan has achieved the Nascent Soul stage in this life, and has completed his original long-cherished wish and basic goal. Every step forward in the future will be a gain.

He thought about leaving Daqing and heading for the prosperous earth world in the future, hoping to achieve a Nascent Soul cultivator in a few years.

But I am not very confident in achieving the divine transformation in this life.

This kind of breakthrough from the shackles of nature has little to do with one's own qualifications or efforts.

You need a great opportunity and good luck.

The basic conditions are the divine creatures that are extinct in the human world and the legendary fifth-order spiritual veins.

"Light up the fifth life. There are currently two ways to reincarnate independently."

"One is to reincarnate directly and break free from the shackles of the human world of Tianheng, and customize your own reincarnation. If you can reincarnate into a higher realm like the 'Mofeng Realm', or even the legendary 'Meteoric Realm', where the upper limit of heaven and earth is higher and the resources are abundant, it will be much easier to advance to the late Nascent Soul stage and the God Transformation stage."

"The second is to obtain a life of immortal cultivation in a foreign land in a dream. Transform the other self in the dream into a reincarnation experience in this life. Through the power of reincarnation, the "other self" in the dream can be guided and taught to grow faster. The higher the achievement of life in the dream, the greater the reward in reincarnation."

Lu Changan had never experienced these two modes of autonomous reincarnation, but he had silently deduced them, and they each had their pros and cons.

Lu Changan's present life ended immediately with direct reincarnation; the third life in the Nine Seals Stele was finalized and became the foundation for his next life.

However, Lu Chang'an's situation in this life is very good. Once the gains from killing Qingmu Zhenjun are digested, his strength will be greatly increased, allowing him to dominate Daqing.

Not to mention, there is also the Xuantian Gourd Vine, which represents great fortune and opportunity. As long as it is cultivated long enough, theoretically there is a chance to obtain the treasure of "Little Xuantian".

Faced with such a good situation, if Lu Changan gave up and started an unknown reincarnation, he would naturally feel regretful. It was not a rational choice.

"If you don't try your best, how can you know how high you can reach in this life? Moreover, the higher your achievements in this life, the deeper your foundation will be in the next life."

Lu Changan had a plan in mind.

In this life, unless there is no further progress to make or you are in a desperate situation where you are doomed to die, there is no need to initiate autonomous reincarnation.

For example, Yan Donglai, who was suspected to be the cause of the thousand-year catastrophe.

Before he was promoted to the late Nascent Soul stage, if this person came to him, Lu Changan thought to himself that he would have no power to resist against a legendary monk.

Lighting up the fifth life and having independent reincarnation allows Lu Changan to face major crises without any worries.

As for the second way of reincarnation in dreams, the disadvantages are poor autonomy and unstable benefits; the advantage is that it does not interfere with Lu Changan's real life, and the two can coexist.

After lighting up the fifth life, Lu Changan mastered more basic applications of the power of reincarnation through the [Nine Seals Monument].

For example, tracing back the monk’s past life and reincarnation, awakening his innate wisdom, etc.

If you are willing to pay a certain price and consume a large amount of reincarnation resources, you can even indirectly affect the trajectory of other people's reincarnation in the next life.

……

After a long time, Lu Changan's consciousness exited from the Nine Seals Monument.

He unfolded his Nascent Soul level spiritual consciousness to check the situation in the fairy city where he was in seclusion.

This fairy city in front of us is also an important spiritual vein town close to the front line. It is one of the former Feng Kingdom territories that were spit out after the army of the Beast King Valley retreated.

After a great victory, the Weidao League suffered heavy casualties, not limited to the lower-level cannon fodder. The mid- and high-level monks were seriously injured, including the True Lords who had experienced the Nascent Soul Battle.

It would take at least half a year for the Weidao League to digest the large territory abandoned by the Beast King Valley, consolidate the local immortal cultivation forces, and take control of the situation.

Therefore, even though they discovered that there seemed to be trouble in the rear of the Beast King Valley and they retreated in a hurry, the Wei Dao League did not pursue them in full force.

Among the Yuanying Zhenjun of the Weidao League, Lu Changan's condition is relatively good.

He knew the truth about the chaos in the rear of Beast King Valley.

If you use the fifth-tier rare item [Black Wind Cloak], you can fish in troubled waters, sneak into the heart of the Beast King Valley, and gain more benefits.

But out of concern for the mysterious existence of the Black Mist Mountains, Lu Changan chose to be safe and not create any unnecessary trouble.

The fifth life has been lit up, and he no longer needs to take the risk of capturing and killing the demon's Nascent Soul.

Quiet room.

Lu Changan spread his hands and took out sixteen dark green wooden swords, his eyes full of enthusiasm and anticipation.

call!
He summoned his own infant fire, and with the help of his powerful spiritual consciousness that was now comparable to that of the leader of the Demon Sect, he wiped out the mark of Qingmu Zhenjun in the sword formation.

The sixteen Qingxuan swords floating around him were buzzing and trembling in their struggle. The spiritual wood materials were all at least fourth-grade mid-quality.

The four most important swords made of dark blue wood are made of materials that barely reach the fourth-grade top quality!
Lu Changan secretly marveled: To cultivate a Qingxuan wooden sword of such a large scale and high quality, Master Qingmu must have paid a huge amount of resources and lifespan.

Qingxuan wood is a precious spiritual wood in the world of immortal cultivation. It is suitable for making offensive magic weapons, especially wood-based flying sword magic weapons, which are extremely scarce and precious.

Back then in Dayuan, Yu Yuanjin, a Yuanying sword cultivator from the Dayu royal family, was willing to trade the Thunder Pearl with Lu Changan for a piece of Qingxuan wood as a collection. This is an example of his ability.

In the previous battle, Qingmu Zhenjun's Qingmu Sword Formation suppressed Lu Changan's puppet army formation, and the attack was very strong. If the frontal fight continued, Lu Changan would suffer.

Once the sixteen Qingxuan swords are refined, Lu Changan's frontal attack capability will be greatly enhanced, posing more threats to the giants in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

Although the [Nail Head Arrow] is powerful, it is, after all, a sinister magic weapon for sneak attacks, and its advantage lies in its unexpectedness. If it is a head-on fight, and the target in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul is prepared, the effect of the [Nail Head Arrow] will be greatly reduced.

"In the fourth incarnation, my consciousness is much stronger than that of Qingmu Zhenjun. Once I refine the Qingxuan Sword Formation and control it as I wish, I may be able to exert even greater lethality."

Lu Changan knew that this kind of sword formation and puppet formation required extremely high control of spiritual consciousness.

The spiritual awareness of Qingmu Zhenjun is comparable to that of a mid-stage Yuanying realm. Combined with the compatibility of the Wood-type Changqing Gong, he is able to control a Qingxuan sword formation of this scale.

If it were an ordinary Yuanying in the early stage, it would be great if he could exert 50% to 60% of the power of this sword formation.

Four of the swords in the Qingxuan sword formation have just reached the threshold of the fourth-grade upper grade. It is not difficult for Lu Changan to guess the ambition of Qingmu Zhenjun.

"If all sixteen Qingxuan sword woods are of the fourth-grade upper grade, once the sword formation is set up, the power will be comparable to some pseudo-spiritual treasures."

Lu Changan couldn't help but feel fortunate that Master Qingmu had not yet reached that step.

Perhaps in Qingmu Zhenjun's imagination, it would be much easier to complete this step after killing Lu Chang'an and obtaining more lifespan and precious resources.

……

Half an hour later.

Lu Changan, who was refining the Qingxuan Sword Formation, felt the fierce evil spirit pressure of the Nascent Soul raging over the sky above the Immortal City.

That aura was not the Nascent Soul of the Six Demonic Sects, but that of Master Liang of the Xuanyin Sect of the Weidao League.

Lu Changan's consciousness casually scanned:
Liang Shaotian, with a head of white hair, was furious, demonic flames shot up into the sky, and his deep black pupils were filled with bloodshot.

"Liang Shaotian was seriously injured in the Nascent Soul Battle. His injuries have not yet healed and he is furious. What is going on?" Lu Changan murmured.

Soon, several screams were heard in the town.

Several remnants of the evil sect were shredded and burned to ashes by Master Liang's black magic flame.

Liang Shaotian was still furious, so he led several Jindan masters from the Xuanyin Sect to attack a Jindan family near a major town that had no time to retreat.

The Jiedan family was a subsidiary force of the demonic camp and was ruthlessly slaughtered by the Xuanyin Sect.

Liang Shaotian's injuries had not yet healed, but he actually lowered his status and personally took action to kill.

Finally, two Yuanying from the Weidao League came to dissuade them, one of whom was Zhang Tianfeng.

Master Liang's anger subsided temporarily and he stopped killing people.

According to the strategy formulated by Chu Tianfeng, for the recaptured Feng State territory, most of the local immortal cultivation forces would be evacuated in a gentle manner and incorporated into the camp of the Wei Dao League, unless they were deeply connected with the Beast King Valley.

After experiencing the Immortal Cultivation War, the Weidao Alliance suffered heavy losses and was in urgent need of recovering its strength.

Lu Changan communicated with Zhang Tieshan through spiritual consciousness and soon learned the truth.

It turned out that Liang Shaotian’s eldest disciple, "Li Hai", who was in the late Jindan stage, died in this immortal cultivation war.

Master Liang was seriously injured and received the order from Alliance Leader Chu, so he could not pursue further for revenge.

Therefore, Liang Shaotian took revenge on the surrounding areas and killed some of the remnants of the evil.

The Jindan cultivation family that was slaughtered had an alliance with the high-level officials of the Beast King Valley, and became the target of revenge. The entire family was executed by the Xuanyin Sect, and no one, young or old, male or female, survived.

Due to the loss of his beloved disciple, Chu Tianfeng turned a blind eye and did not pursue the matter.

Lu Changan sighed and shook his head, not intervening in the matter.

In this war of cultivating immortals, all the immortal cultivation forces, big and small, in the Wei Dao League suffered losses to varying degrees.

Many key figures died, leading to the weakening of the forces behind them.

If it weren't for Lu Chang'an's care, Zhao Tan'er would also be in danger in this war and might not be able to escape unscathed.

Jinyun Valley lost two True Dan cultivators, several Fake Dan cultivators, and a large number of middle and lower level cultivators.

Fortunately, the war ended in a great victory, and Zhang Zhenjun of Jinyun Valley gained considerable benefits in the pursuit.

When the spoils are divided after the war, the Yuanying Zhenjuns of the Weidao League will all be able to grab a large amount of profit resources. They don't even need to do it themselves, because the affiliated forces of the Beast King Valley that have captured the area will take the initiative to offer tribute and show respect.

Lu Chang'an calmed his mind, gazed far away in the direction of the Beast King Valley, and made a rough calculation.

"I don't know how long the Great Elder of Beast King Valley can hold on..."

……

Thousands of miles away, outside the area occupied by the Wei Dao Alliance.

Amidst the bumpy plains, there is a huge bottomless pit.

In the air above the huge pit, there floated a tall alien man with a green face and a dragon tail.

The green scales on his body shrank in ripples, with a pressure far exceeding that of the True Spirit Bloodline of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, causing hundreds of miles around him to be silent.

"It is rare for a middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivator to be able to withstand my tea-cup Kung Fu."

The human-faced dragon retracted its dragon-scale arms and claws, and looked down with a blank and indifferent gaze at a spherical white cocoon several feet in diameter at the bottom of the giant pit.

In the thick white cocoon, the breath of the Great Elder of the Beast King Valley was so faint that it was difficult to detect. Only the fetal heartbeat could be sensed.

A hint of surprise flashed across the human-faced dragon's eyes, and he pondered for a moment.

When the Great Beast King Elder encountered him, he had experienced a great battle and had some minor injuries and lost some vitality, so he was not in his prime.

Even in such a state, he was able to hold him back for just a cup of tea, and didn't even try to escape.

Only the Great Beast King Elder is special. If it were any other mid-Nascent Soul cultivator, it would be equivalent to being killed by him once.

The seriously injured Great Elder, before his body was about to be beheaded, used the mysterious art of his natal Heavenly Silkworm, and his entire body was wrapped in endlessly tough and thick black silk.

In a few breaths, it turned into a spherical cocoon several feet in size.

The great elder wrapped in a thick cocoon has a defense comparable to that of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The human-faced dragon tried, but couldn't do anything in the short term.

At this moment, a breath of new life is brewing in the cocoon.

"Mister Qingmian, you have forced me to use the 'Resurrection' skill that I can use once every hundred years. Could you please spare the Beast King Valley?"

"The six sects of the Holy Sect are one, and the leaders of the other sects will not sit idly by and watch the destruction of the Beast King Valley. I have the confidence to hold out until the two from the Dark Spring Sect and the Infinite Sect arrive."

The elder's weak voice came from the thick white cocoon. The voice was not as old as before, but had a childish feeling.

The Great Elder felt bitter. Even if he was replaced by a top-notch being in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, after a fierce battle with him, both sides would be injured, and then he would be reborn and reach his peak and perfect state, which would make his opponent despair.

However, the pressure brought by the human-faced dragon is no less than that of the Yuanying great monk of Xuanmen in the past.

The human-faced dragon forced the great elder into a desperate situation without paying much of a price and was basically unscathed.

Even if it causes some injuries, it has no practical significance.

The human-faced dragon, which is the descendant of the true spirit, has an extremely strong physique and extraordinary self-healing ability.

This advantage is completely unmatched by any human Nascent Soul cultivator.

Even if the Great Elder was resurrected with full health, he would still face the attack of the human-faced dragon.

If this descendant of the True Spirit also possesses special talents for the Nascent Soul, then he would be in mortal danger.

Therefore, the Great Elder not only did not dare to break out of his cocoon and revive, but instead deliberately slowed down the speed of using his magical powers to buy as much time as possible.

"Great Elder, do you think that by delaying me for a while, the disaster at the gate of Beast King Valley can be resolved smoothly?"

The human-faced dragon spoke in a playful tone, with a strange smile on his face.

Hearing this, the Great Elder’s heart sank.

When facing the human-faced dragon before, he did not escape, but fought back in order to buy time.

The leader of the Beast King Sect has the map of mountains and rivers, and together with the help of the various demon Nascent Souls, it should not be difficult to break the seal as long as it is not completely broken.

Swish!
The figure of the human-faced dragon blurred and disappeared from the huge deep pit.

The elder's thoughts raced, and he said loudly:
"Your Excellency Qingmian may not understand the practitioners of the Evergreen Technique!"

“The Lord Changqing of the Weidao League, who is at the early stage of the Nascent Soul, was able to suppress me, causing the Beast King Valley to be defeated in the war. If he were to advance to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, the threat to the Black Mist Mountains would be far greater than that of the Beast King Valley…”

Upon hearing this, the human-faced dragon that was flying high in the sky paused slightly.

With his wisdom, he could easily see the Great Elder's intention of "provoking".

However, the disastrous defeat in the immortal cultivation war in Beast King Valley was far beyond the expectations of the human-faced dragon.

The Great Elder of the Beast King Valley is no pushover. True Lord Changqing, who is able to suppress him, is indeed worthy of attention.

"Master Changqing... Changqing..."

The human-faced dragon murmured in his heart, feeling that this Taoist name sounded familiar, as if he had heard Xuemei mention it before.

……

Former Yan State, the mountain gate of Beast King Valley.

The huge valley was in ruins.

The magnificent mountain gate buildings collapsed in the dust, the river broke, and the roars of beasts and the cries of birds rose and fell, covering the chaotic valley.

Rumble!
The fourth-level formation of the Beast King Valley was torn into a huge crack under the fierce attack from the outside world.

The terrifying figures of the four bird kings, the golden eagle, the phoenix, the white crane and the three-legged bird, dominated the sky above the Beast King Valley, causing a huge hurricane and raging demonic flames that swept into the mountain gate.

The most powerful three-legged bird exudes an aura that exceeds that of most mid-Yuanying stage cultivators.

The old Nascent Soul elder, with a look of despair on his face, led several old and weak Jindan cultivators to resist with the help of the fourth-order formation.

The old and frail sacred beast of the sect struggled to block the gap in the formation, but was ruthlessly torn into pieces by the four bird kings, who shared their flesh and blood pills.

What's worse is that the many pet animals kept in the Beast King Valley have lost control and become a mess, wreaking havoc within the sect and killing the disciples.

Due to internal and external troubles, it is impossible to organize an effective defense.

In the face of absolute strength, the defenders of Beast King Valley screamed continuously.

Under some kind of bewitching force, many out-of-control pets and birds rushed into the forbidden abyss of the Beast King Valley.

"The seal is indeed in that place..."

The four great bird kings let out sharp roars and rushed into the Beast King Valley together, flying over the corpses of the old Nascent Soul elders and several Jindan Zhenren.

After a while.

Several sealing pillars in the forbidden area of ​​Beast King Valley collapsed one after another under the impact of the four demon bird kings and numerous out-of-control war beasts.

Ugh! Roar~
A horrifying and terrifying beast roar, as if coming from the endless abyss, made the hearts of many creatures in the Beast King Valley tremble.

Boom - click!
As the earth shook and the mountains shook, monstrous evil spirits erupted along with rolling magma and fire.

Amidst the smoke and dust, a towering and gigantic bull-horned beast king, with dark green smoke whistling from its nostrils, slowly crawled out from the forbidden abyss, dragging a number of thick chains.

Compared with this sealed strongest beast king, the fourth-level beast king that appeared in the magic war before was as insignificant as a baby.

"Such a strong evil spirit!"

"This...is not like the demon species in this world!"

Gazing at the strongest beast king who had broken the seal, the four bird kings in the sky were terrified, feeling the oppression of approaching the king of black fog.

"Lord Qingmian has sent a message asking us to evacuate."

The three-legged bird in the lead transformed into a brown-black half-bird-man form and put away the rare bamboo flute in his hand.

"Get out!"

The four bird kings felt that they were being targeted by the Sealed Beast King, and they spread their wings and flew into the sky.

The towering and strongest beast king stood side by side with the peak, with a black and blue back, horns on his head, wild and bloodthirsty eyes, and four giant pillar-like devil arms spread out.

Rumble!
Many palaces and pavilions in the Beast King Valley, animal parks, bird nests, etc. were reduced to dust.

The many monks, war beasts and birds remaining in the mountain gate were so frightened that they fled in all directions.

Many cultivators were unable to dodge and were caught in the black and green smoke exhaled from the nostrils of the Sealed Beast King, and instantly turned into a pool of blood.

The destructive power of the strongest beast king is beyond imagination, and he can slaughter many lives in a breath.

The buildings at the mountain gate collapsed one after another, dust was flying, and the Beast King Hall was about to be razed to the ground.

at last.

Several demonic Nascent Souls roared in from the sky and quickly returned to the gate of the Beast King Valley.

"The seal is broken—"

The leader, Sect Master Meng, was shocked and felt something was wrong. He stared blankly at the newly built mountain gate that was in pieces and stained with blood.

No roar——

The strongest beast king who was breathing out smoke was surrounded by a monstrous evil aura, like a devil in the world. His bloodthirsty and hateful eyes were fixed on Master Meng and others.

Although the strongest beast king's consciousness was confused, judging from his expression, he was holding a grudge against Sect Master Meng, who had extracted his blood to give birth to a fourth-level beast king.

"Seal the Beast King..."

Several Nascent Souls in the Demonic Camp couldn't help but feel their scalps tingling and a sense of suffocation and threat.

"Quick! Everyone, follow our sect to seal this beast together!"

Sect Leader Meng felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and he sacrificed the damaged pseudo-spiritual treasure [Map of Mountains and Rivers] and summoned everyone to take action.

Before he finished speaking, a low beast roar was heard from behind several demon Yuanyings, and chaos suddenly broke out.

"Beast!"

A familiar aura of the Beast King came from behind, echoing the strongest Beast King sealed in the sect.

"Master! The injured and weakened fourth-level beast king betrayed us and rushed to kill the monk army!"

Upon hearing this, Sect Leader Meng almost felt dizzy and his body became unsteady.

It's really a leak in the house that happened to rain in the night.

The life and death of the great elder is unknown, the gate of the Beast King Valley has collapsed, the strongest beast king that was sealed has escaped, and countless people have been killed or injured... This disaster has made Sect Leader Meng feel unprecedentedly powerless.

If we are not careful, the Beast King Valley may be in danger of destruction.
