I searched for corpses in the Wuding River to extract entries

Deep in the cave, Xie Que sat cross-legged in front of his incarnation in the sea of ​​blood, with faint starlight overflowing from his seven orifices.

His breathing was steady and long. With every breath, the acupoints in his body would glow faintly like stars, and then slowly rotate.

The yin and yang energies flow through the meridians, achieving a nearly perfect balance within the mysterious framework of the "Yin and Yang Chapter of Cause and Effect".

At this moment, Xie Que's eyes suddenly opened, he slowly raised his hand, his movements seemed slow but were actually fast, and ripples suddenly appeared in the void.

The shadows of the battle formations of the two tribes of witches and liches emerged, and the huge figures of the twelve ancestor witches echoed with the 360 ​​demon patterns.
However, this seemingly powerful formation is somewhat stagnant due to the lack of complete supporting rules.

Xie Que stared at the battle formation in the air, frowning slightly.
"Using cause and effect as the warp and weft, and the lich as the center of the formation, although it can imitate the might of a half-step Taoist master, it is ultimately like a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water."

A trace of desire flashed in his eyes: "If I can get the complete version of the Zhoutian Star Array..."

Xie Que thought about this and sighed: "Whatever."

After arduous revisions and compilations, Xie Que finally completed this chapter of "Cause and Effect".

When this level of practice is completed, it means that one has been able to master the extremely profound principle of cause and effect.

This method can even use cause and effect to allow the body and soul to span the long river of time and achieve the same thing as the Heavenly Lord on the other side.

Therefore, in a sense, a warrior who has completed the "Cause and Effect" chapter has already reached the other shore realm in Taoism, which is the "Nirvana Martial King" in martial arts.

Although the realm after practicing "The Yin-Yang Chapter of Cause and Effect" is only the level of a simple Heavenly Lord, the actual strength may be enough to compete with those slightly weaker Half-Step Dao Lords.

After all, the power contained in these two formations is definitely not something that the Lord of the Other Shore can easily imagine.

However, if you want to truly possess the strength of a Half-Step Dao Lord, you need to go further.

Xie Que sighed softly, slowly finished his training and stood up.

In front of him were many ancient books sent by the Witch Clan’s Heavenly Kings. These books were precious heritages that had gone through the vicissitudes of time.

And at the top of these classics, there is a special book, which is the fragment of "Luo River Map".

Although it is only a fragment, its completeness is much higher than the version that has been passed down to later generations.

Therefore, Xie Que also felt that it was time to come out.

After all, he has been immersed in the derivation of martial arts for so many years, and now it is finally time to end.

Looking at the current situation in the Earthly Immortal Realm, Xie Que is full of curiosity about the Demon Court and the many immortal sects and dynasties.

If he had the opportunity to obtain some precious books from these forces, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to his path of cultivation.

Especially the complete version of the Zhoutian Star Array. If you can get it, it will be like adding wings to a tiger.

Not only that, after years of unremitting efforts, the "Eight-Nine Profound Art" derived by Xie Que has become very different from the original version.

It is no longer limited to the original scope of the exercises, but incorporates Xie Que's own understanding and innovation.

Therefore, Xie Que prefers to call this martial art "Martial Classic" to highlight its uniqueness.

The direction of practice in this "Martial Arts Classic" is also very clear, which is to master any great way with the power of martial arts.

Eventually, one can even use martial arts to harmonize with the laws of nature, and create and dominate a vast world!

Xie Que looked at the fragment of Luohetu and shook his head, muttering to himself: "Taoism, martial arts, and body-tempering methods have been integrated into the first seven levels. If we want to deduce the eighth level, we need to go a step further..."

However, Xie Que also felt that these first seven levels had already exhausted all his resources.

He could also imagine how difficult the subsequent deduction would be.

Then Xie Que flashed like a ghost and appeared in the witch clan area inside the cave as if teleporting.

The reason why the Wu Clan should be separated from other human beings is that the Wu Clan are generally larger in size than humans, and they all possess a certain level of cultivation.

If the Wu clan and human disciples were allowed to practice together, it would probably cause many inconveniences and conflicts.

Therefore, Xie Que specially set aside an independent area for the Wu Clan in this vast cave world to ensure that both parties could practice smoothly.

At this moment, in front of the square, the seven Witch Clan Heavenly Kings had already received the message that Xie Que had come out of seclusion.

Due to the appearance of the Demon Court, they did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. They all stood in place with solemn expressions, waiting for Xie Que's arrival.

After all, the appearance of the Demon Court will bring huge changes to the entire earthly immortal world.

The Witch Clan, as one of the forces within it and the former mortal enemy of the Demon Court, was naturally also greatly affected.

However, now that Dazhu Tianjun is not here, and without clear instructions from Xie Que, they dare not take action against the Demon Court easily.

You must know that in the eyes of many major human dynasties in the outside world, the witch clan is also regarded as an alien species that must be eliminated.

Therefore, the witch clan must be extremely cautious in their actions, as any carelessness may lead to the extermination of the clan.

Xie Que's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he asked, "What is the situation in Dongsheng Shenzhou recently?"

The Great Sage Lord raised his hand and formed a seal. A stream of Taoist soul fire burst out from his sleeves and intertwined in the air to form a compass.

A great sage who has the ability to detect extremely distant places, and the only descendant of Hou Tu Niangniang.

Since the matter concerned the Demon Court, the Great Sage Heavenly Monarch could not wait to speak up and said, "Senior, I have sent three thousand Hades under my command to investigate outside."

"Please look..."

As he finished speaking, the compass suddenly vibrated violently, and the blue light turned into countless tiny images flashing in the air.

These underworld gods are the condensed resentment between heaven and earth, so for the Great Sage Heavenly Monarch,

Wherever there is resentment, unless there is a powerful person who deliberately blocks this place, it can be projected out.

In the picture, countless big monsters gathered outside the suspended city, all of them seemed to want to restore the demon court to its former glory.

Then the scene suddenly changed and came to the ruins of White Dragon Temple.

I saw that the golden statue that had been defeated by countless believers in front of the hall was completely disintegrated.

The Bright Sumeru Array, which was originally a protective array for the sect, was also turned into nothingness under the fierce crushing of the Zhoutian Star Array.

Then the scene changed, and the White Eyebrow Buddha, the abbot of the White Dragon Temple, suffered a severe blow.
He himself was being hunted down by several powerful demon clan members and had to flee to Xiniu Hezhou in a panic.

However, this is just the beginning.

Soon after, the armies of the three major Tianjun sects, Qingming Sect, Cangxia Sect, and Lieyang Valley, also suffered the same fate.

They were completely powerless to fight back against the powerful offensive of the Demon Court and were destroyed one after another.

The army of the Demon Court then swept in like a storm, unstoppable, and completely destroyed the mountain gates of the three major sects.

The big flags of the Demon Court fluttered in the wind, and were planted high above the ruins of the three major sects. Those who survived by chance all became slaves of the Demon Court, being enslaved and driven, and living a life worse than death.

When the Great Sage Lord saw all this, he sighed and took back the compass.

Xie Que looked at this scene and nodded slightly, as if he had expected all this.

However, his brows did not relax, but became even more furrowed.

After a moment of silence, he asked again, "Do you have any definite information about the identity of the Demon Emperor?"

Upon hearing this, the Great Sage Heavenly Monarch replied without hesitation:
"According to the words of some great demons, the true identity of this demon emperor should be the Great Dream Heavenly Monarch."

Before he finished speaking, the air in the entire hall seemed to freeze in an instant.

The Witch Clan's Heavenly Kings looked at each other with an expression of disbelief on their faces.

After they looked at each other, their faces showed great surprise.

After all, this Great Dream Lord is an old acquaintance to them.

The tragic scenes of the past wars between liches and wizards flashed through their minds.

At that time, the Great Dream Lord was the Eighteen-winged Golden Cicada. Every time the golden cicada wings flapped, it could take away the lives of countless witches.

And because of his innate magical power, his ability to save his life is extremely abnormal.
He always managed to escape in strange ways from the killer moves of the Wu Clan's Heavenly Lords.

It disappeared without a trace, leaving only a golden light behind, which gave them a headache.

Even after the entire Demon Court was destroyed by the human race, the Witch Clan searched every corner but could not find any trace of the Great Dream Lord.

It was as if he had never existed and disappeared in the long river of time.

But no one expected that he actually got the Donghuang Bell and became the new Demon Emperor today!
However, Xie Que knew nothing about all this, so when he heard the name "Da Meng Tianjun", his heart was filled with a sense of unfamiliarity.

Lord Dayun noticed that the sect master was frowning and thinking hard, so he took the initiative to explain:

"Master, the Great Dream Lord is a prehistoric alien species, named the Eighteen-winged Golden Cicada!"

"Thinking back to the time when the wizards and liches fought, this old cicada repeatedly escaped from pursuit with the help of the 'Heavenly Cicada Robe'. I didn't expect that he actually had such incredible luck that he not only managed to escape, but also got the legendary East Emperor Bell!"

The Great Meteorite Lord paused, then continued:

“But then again, this Demon Emperor was already extremely mysterious before he became the Great Dream Lord, and he rarely showed up in front of the public.”

He continued thoughtfully, "And the reason why he is called the Great Dream Lord is precisely because of his magical powers. Whenever he flaps his eighteen golden wings, he can instantly make people fall into an illusion, as if they were in a dream, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion."

Xie Que's eyes lit up as he listened to Lord Dayun's story.

He thought to himself: "If I can understand the secret of this 'entering dreams' magical power, maybe I can create a wonderful place like the reincarnation paradise again..."

Today, Wu Zong has a large number of disciples, and they all have a deep understanding and comprehension of martial arts.

Under such circumstances, Xie Que came up with the idea of ​​re-creating a paradise like the reincarnation paradise of the past.

If this idea could be realized, then with the power of many disciples, Xie Que would be able to save a lot of trouble when deriving the last two levels of "Martial Classic".

However, it is not easy to create such a secret place.
The key lies in whether one can obtain the Demon Emperor's true body and comprehend the great way of illusion from it.

Only in this way can we create a more real land of reincarnation.

After all, the realms in the past and now are different. If one wants to create a world where enlightenment can be achieved, the requirements for the Great Way of Illusion are also higher.

Xie Que was well aware of the difficulty involved, but he did not back down.

Instead, he fell into deep thought, mulling over various possible methods and approaches.

Although Wu Zong has not existed for long, its current strength cannot be underestimated.

However, living in this great southern region is obviously not enough for Wuzong.

Especially when there are many disciples, all of whom are gifted and have unlimited potential, they should be allowed to go out and explore the world.

Thinking of this, a look of determination flashed in Xie Que's eyes. After all, only in this way can Wu Zong truly rise and become a remarkable existence.

He immediately issued an order to summon Guan Zetian, the deputy sect leader.

Soon, Guan Zetian strode over.

He had an upright posture, and as he walked, tiny specks of starlight inadvertently appeared on his cuffs, which showed that he had cultivated the "Martial Classic" to the pinnacle of the fourth level.

Although Guan Zetian's current cultivation level is only average in the Wu Sect, under Xie Que's careful guidance, his strength has already made great progress and is no longer what it used to be.

Today, his strength is almost the same as that of half the God of Creation.

You know, the cultivation level of many leaders of major sects is just like this.

Xie Que looked at Guan Zetian in front of him with a smile on his face, his eyes revealing his satisfaction with Guan Zetian's growth.

He said slowly: "Today's Wu Sect is as powerful as a rainbow and at its peak. It is no longer the weak Lieshan Sect of the past."

Guan Zetian nodded slightly. He knew very well that under the leadership of Xie Que, Wu Zong was growing stronger and stronger and had now become a hegemon.

Xie Que continued, “So, we can no longer be satisfied with this small Great Southern Region, but should set our sights on places further away!”

Guan Zetian was so smart that he immediately understood what Xie Que meant.

In an instant, a dazzling gleam suddenly burst out from his eyes. In that gleam, there was excitement, anticipation, and an eagerness to try.

After all, Wuzong was a reformed version of the former Lieshan Sect.

For Guan Zetian, the sect is everything to him, and the glory of the sect is his glory.

If the sect could expand, move towards a wider world and achieve hegemony, that would be his lifelong dream!

Xie Que glanced at Guan Zetian and saw him nod slightly, then continued, "But remember, don't be arrogant."

"If there is a sect provoking us... there is no need to kill them all, just establish your authority."

"Let them know that I, Wu Zong, am not a soft persimmon that can be bullied by anyone."

After saying that, Xie Que waved his hand and said, "Go and select disciples first. If they are suitable, let them be the first pioneers to step out of the Great Southern Region!"

After making arrangements for Guan Zetian, Xie Que turned his attention to Yu Shan.
He looked solemn, his brows furrowed tightly, "The expansion of Wu Zong is a serious matter. Although my Wu Zong has always been low-key, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop."

What Xie Que meant by this is that because of the Wu Clan, many powerful people from the major clans have already set their sights on Wu Zong. "

He walked slowly to Yu Shan, patted his shoulder and said, "Go and follow Guan Zetian to prevent any accidents." (End of this chapter)
