There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

Under the empty starry sky.

In the ecological zone surrounded by interlaced black and white light, outside the building made of huge stones, when a team of five second-level cultivators entered the range of the Wood Spirit Formation, a third-level wood cultivator immediately came over, took the storage bags from their hands, and inspected the goods in the bags on the spot.

The third-level cultivator quickly finished the inspection and turned into a stream of light and landed in a three-story wooden building to the west of the boulder-built building. The five second-level cultivators who were transporting supplies seemed to be afraid of something and withdrew from the area of ​​the Wood Spirit Formation as quickly as possible and walked towards a nearby teahouse.

The teahouse was bustling with people. There was a fighting arena in the hall where the stage used to be. Two vicious dogs were biting each other, and people who were placing bets nearby were shouting excitedly, and it seemed like they were venting something with their emotions.

Wang Ping, who was dozens of kilometers away from the meteorite, sighed with some regret. He should have thought that things would not go so smoothly. But it didn't matter. He had enough time to confirm, and Guan Xi seemed to be more patient than him. So far, he had not sent any urging messages using the communication token.

Time passed slowly.

When Wang Ping saw the fifth batch of energy crystals being transported to the transfer station, a green light flashed in the wood spirit formation around the huge stone building, and then Wang Ping caught a slightly confused soul consciousness.

Yu Lian also captured this soul. She immediately crawled out of his sleeve and climbed onto Wang Ping's shoulder.

At this time, a light green barrier flashed across the surface of the building built of huge stones. As ripples spread out on the surface of the barrier, a figure jumped out from it. When he jumped out of the barrier, the flowers, plants and trees in the ecological zone immediately grew wildly, but withered in the blink of an eye. After withering, new seedlings grew wildly again, and this repeated countless times.

No one in the ecological zone dared to breathe at this moment. Even the beasts in the Colosseum were lying on the ground, their bodies shaking instinctively.

The man was wearing a gray Taoist robe and had the appearance of a southerner from Zhongzhou. He had no beard, and most of his hair was shiny white. From time to time, some observable wood spirit energy would flash around his body, and the wood spirit energy would consciously gather into magic arrays, but the magic arrays were all broken and incomplete.

He landed on the platform in front of the giant stone building and stretched out his left hand to calculate something. His left hand was as black and skinny as a bone that had been rotting for hundreds of years, and his fingertips were as sharp as the claws of a wild beast. His other right hand, holding a compass-like magical instrument, was similar to the hand of an ordinary person.

As the spells in his hands formed, dots of green light appeared in front of him. This was the cultivator's "arithmetic", which could record the time the cultivator had been in seclusion, and be used by the cultivator to calculate the time of seclusion after he came out.

"Is he from the Nanhai Dao?"

Yu Lian first asked, and then said: "I don't even need to observe his soul consciousness to feel the chaos and pollution. His existence is like adding a layer of filth to the pure wood spirit energy!"

Wang Ping took out the communication token handed to him by Guan Xi and reported the whereabouts of the Taoist from the South China Sea.

This person is the Taoist from the South China Sea!

Wang Ping was 90% confident about this. First of all, his face, although slightly different, was the same as recorded in the Taoist Palace archives. Secondly, his consciousness of the aura of his primordial spirit seemed to be integrated with his primordial spirit, but at the same time, they were incompatible, as if they were forcibly stitched together, which was also the same as recorded in the archives.

After only two breaths of silence, there was a response.

Wang Ping immediately took Yu Lian to distance himself from the meteorite, and built a transfer array under the cover of the 'Heaven-Covering Talisman', and then activated an 'Armor Talisman'.

After doing all this, Wang Ping saw the Taoist from the South China Sea rise into the clouds and fly to the high tower where energy crystals were stored. He counted the progress of collecting energy crystals, and then called the two third-level wood cultivators stationed there and gave them instructions. When he was about to leave, the pleasant sound of metal collision was heard near the meteorite.

The Nanhai Daoren only glanced at the densely populated area of ​​the ecological zone and did not take it seriously at all. It was not until a few breaths later when the continuous and pleasant sound of metal collision was heard that the Nanhai Daoren realized that something was wrong.

But at this time, the barrier formation of the ecological zone had collapsed. The difference in temperature, gravity and airflow inside and outside instantly destroyed countless buildings, and tens of thousands of ordinary people living in the ecological zone were pulled into outer space.

The first reaction of the Taoist from the South Sea was to stabilize the tower he was in, because there were a large number of energy crystals stored there. But then he seemed to think of something, and after giving an order to the two third-level wood cultivators beside him, he turned into a stream of light and flew towards the distant meteorite belt.

But after flying only a few hundred feet, his consciousness became blurred and at the same time, he was overwhelmed by a feeling of tiredness, making him want to fall asleep. He seemed to enjoy this moment very much. He enjoyed the tiredness at this moment.

At the same time, the huge meteorite next to him turned into dust in the ripples of space. The teleportation array suspended on both sides of the meteorite emitted a golden light, and the golden light constructed a thick barrier with golden spiritual attributes. After the automatic defense arrays in these two places were activated, dozens of golden spots of light lit up in the entire ecological zone. Those were the self-protection arrays of important buildings in the ecological zone being activated.

The Taoist from the South Sea was in a daze for more than three breaths. When he came to, he looked a little unsatisfied. This might be because he had to fight against madness for a long time, and it was rare for him to feel so relaxed and comfortable in his mind.

However, he reacted in an instant, and as his soul consciousness expanded outward, he whispered, "Is it the Heaven-Blocking Talisman?"

As he spoke, a dark green halo flashed across his face, and a gorgeous flowery mask covered his face. But then the continuous and pleasant metal collision sounds rang in his ears, causing the spiritual veins in his body to tremble. He subconsciously tore off his gray Taoist robe, revealing the rotting spirit in his chest.

At this moment, the spirit body in his chest was rapidly decomposing, and in the blink of an eye, a neat hole appeared in his chest. Inside the hole, there were wood spirit veins beating constantly. There were bits of golden substance attached to the surface of these veins, emitting the breath of golden spirit.

The Taoist from the South China Sea lowered his head at this moment, looking at the hole in his chest with some disbelief in his eyes. Then his eyes under the clown mask turned dark, and a wood spirit array kept flashing around his body, which instantly covered hundreds of feet. At the same time, the patterns on the surface of the 'clown mask' seemed to come alive, constantly devouring the spiritual veins of the Taoist from the South China Sea's body.

This is the prelude to going crazy!

At the critical moment, a pure white beam of light appeared out of nowhere and surrounded the broken and twisted body of the Nanhai Taoist. This beam of light seemed to have infinite pressure, making the Nanhai Taoist's body seem to be frozen in a state of complete stillness.

"There really is a seal from the monks at the Vajra Temple in his body. It seems that all those years of nurturing this magic weapon were not wasted!"

Chongyun's voice came from far away and then appeared beside the white light column. The wind chimes in his hand kept shattering when he appeared and turned into dust in the blink of an eye.

"Quickly take his body, or else there will be more trouble!"

Minghui's cold voice sounded immediately afterwards, and he appeared beside Chongyun, looking solemnly at the two teleportation towers wrapped in golden halos.

At this time, Guan Xi appeared in front of the light column along with a white light and responded: "Yes, we have already prepared the ceremony in our base in outer space, and the coordinates have been marked for you. You just need to teleport!" As he spoke, Rong Yang landed in a high tower full of energy crystals. He casually lit up two wood repairmen guarding the tower, picked up a storage bag, and then his eyes glowed, and then he collected the other storage bags in a very ungraceful manner.

Wang Ping was far away. The spoils had been agreed upon in advance, so there was no need to take them now. He and Guan Xi were both paying attention to the two teleportation towers near the meteorite.

As a powerful golden spiritual aura emerged, the space above the tower was torn apart, and three figures appeared on the platform. They were the three fourth-level monks of Vajra Temple in Zhongzhou Continent, namely Kaiyun, Lingyuan and Lingzong.

Kaiyun was obviously unhappy when he saw what was happening, but he did not get angry immediately. Instead, he asked Wang Ping, "Fellow Daoist Changqing, what do you mean?"

Wang Ping politely bowed and said, "I and my fellow Taoists from the Jimin Society were hunting down the Taoist from the South Sea who was wanted by the Taoist Palace. Fortunately, God was with our help and we finally caught him this time."

As he spoke, he turned into a stream of light and landed in front of Guan Xi, pointing at the Taoist from the South China Sea who was imprisoned in the white light column behind him.

Rong Yang, who had emptied all the storage bags in the tower, turned into a stream of light and landed beside Wang Ping. He echoed, "This Taoist from the South Sea is really abominable. He actually enslaved so many monks and civilians in outer space to collect energy crystals for him."

Kaiyun was obviously very angry at what the two said, but he couldn't find any words to refute. At this moment, Chongyun finally constructed a huge magic circle. A dazzling white light flashed, and he and the Nanhai Taoist in the light column disappeared into the void.

"Saint, be merciful. Fellow Daoist Changqing, you are going too far."

Master Lingyuan on Kaiyun's left did not hide his anger at all. When he spoke, he looked like a furious King Kong who might rush over to fight at any time.

"We? You're going too far?" Rong Yang looked at Ling Yuan with a puzzled look and said, "Are you saying that this place is the headquarters of your Vajra Temple? Are you the ones who have been protecting the Taoist from the South Sea?"

Seeing Ling Yuan was about to speak, Wang Ping looked at Kai Yun seriously and reminded him, "You'd better think it over before answering!"

Kaiyun stretched out his hand to stop Lingyuan from speaking, and walked out of the range of the tower's barrier. He stared at Wang Ping and said, "The Taoist of Nanhai did bring this upon himself, but the hundreds of thousands of people in this ecological zone are innocent. The Taoist friend caused hundreds of thousands of people to die tragically with a wave of his hand. I really cannot sit idly by and do nothing. I must seek justice for them."

He said this solemnly, placing himself on the side of absolute justice and describing Wang Ping and others as evil demons.

Upon hearing this, Yu Lian immediately transformed into a body ten feet tall and said to Kai Yun, "What a shameless monk! Did all the humane practices you made a few years ago go to waste?"

Rong Yang was not surprised at Kai Yun's shamelessness, and said with a smile: "From what you see, fellow Daoist, are you planning to fight with us?"

What answered Rong Yang was a golden stream of spiritual energy, which was a short metal blade constructed from the aura of golden spirit.

"I'll meet you!"

Minghui could no longer hold back. The murderous intent he exuded made the space around him distorted as if it was being burned in a raging fire. When his voice spread, he turned into a streak of white light and headed directly towards the metal dagger.

As a burst of golden light spread out, the metal short blade hit Minghui's body and disintegrated into a golden spiritual aura. Then, Minghui's murderous intent became stronger, as if the temperature of the starry sky dropped a little, and turned into a stream of light rushing towards Lingyuan.

This series of changes not only dumbfounded Kaiyun and others, but also Wang Ping and Rong Yang. You know, there are three fourth-level gold cultivators over there!
Fortunately, Guan Xi was still reliable, and he rushed forward together with Minghui at the critical moment.

"Leave Kaiyun to me!" Rong Yang shouted, and then changed into the 'fire transformation' state. As endless flames burned around him, they locked onto the area where Kaiyun was.

"Today, I will forge you into molten iron!"

Rong Yang's tone was filled with excitement, his voice echoing in the void with two dull thuds, it was Guan Xi and Ming Hui who were meeting their opponents, the four of them were actually bombarding them with their own bodies!

Guan Xi and Ming Hui were covered in a layer of white halo, as if they were wearing a set of gorgeous armor. They moved in the air at the speed of lightning. Each punch they swung seemed nothing special, but they were able to compete with the body of a fourth-level gold cultivator.

Kaiyun did not dare to confront Rongyang head-on. When the sky was filled with flames, he immediately fled to the distant starry sky.

Wang Ping did not immediately intervene in their fight, but summoned the 'Seven Star Killing Formation' to immediately destroy the two teleportation towers near the broken meteorite to prevent any other four-realm cultivators from coming to reinforce.

Afterwards, Wang Ping entered the state of 'nothingness' and unfolded the 'Tongtian Talisman' to connect the heaven and earth. At this time, the light curtain panel suddenly popped up, indicating that the progress of his fusion of the 'Zhetian Talisman' had increased. This time it increased by 10 points, reaching (64/100).

This was the largest increase in fusion progress since Wang Ping had fused the 'Heaven-Covering Talisman', which made him subconsciously have evil thoughts.

"what happened?"

Yu Lian asked softly.

Wang Ping calmed himself down and felt that his connection with the 'Heaven-Covering Talisman' was closer. He glanced at Yu Lian and did not answer her question. Instead, he used the 'Golden Detecting Ball' to read the positions of Kaiyun and Rongyang. A 'Transfer Talisman' instantly appeared near where they were fighting, capturing the network of heaven and earth connected to Kaiyun's consciousness at the fastest speed.

Then Wang Ping used the "Heaven-Covering Talisman" to distort Kaiyun's thoughts.

Kaiyun, who was avoiding the fire attack, looked dazed for a moment. When the golden spiritual energy around him dissipated, a gray-white magic circle formed around his body automatically, blocking the attacking flames outside.

The gray and white magic circle carries a chilly aura, and there are twisted human faces fluttering on the surface of the barrier. That is the 'Netherworld Barrier' of the Taiyin Sect. It is rumored that when a third-level Taiyin cultivator falls asleep, there is a chance that a 'Netherworld Barrier' will appear, and the cultivator will be promoted to the fourth level together.

When Kaiyun woke up from his trance, an illusory gray-purple figure appeared beside him. This figure was the Yuanshen of a Taiyin monk. He was trapped in the magic array constructed by the lotus platform under Kaiyun's feet. This was a magic array constructed by the Yuanshen of a fourth-level Taiyin monk! (End of this chapter)
