There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

Chapter 892: Order in Chaos
Many people saw what Zi Luan and others did, but no one stood up to criticize them. This was not because Tai Yan Sect was so powerful, but because most people were doing the same thing. It was more in their interest to have Tai Yan Sect share the pressure.

The reason why Vajra Temple is willing to bear the cause and effect is because they gain more benefits. This matter is actually very simple, just like Kaiyun knows very well that no matter how to obstruct Ao Yi, Ao Yi will definitely be promoted in the end.

But Kaiyun still wants to stop Ao Yi instead of waiting for the final promotion to take action, because in this process, he can take advantage of the situation and gain enough benefits.

This kind of opportunity is rare, and whenever it appears, the people involved will do everything they can to benefit themselves. This is human nature.

The ones who are truly suffering are the mortals and qigong practitioners at the bottom of society. But if you think they are suffering, you are totally wrong. They also think this is an opportunity, a chance for ambitious people to realize their ambitions, so there is chaos in the world.

The first thing that Vajra Temple targeted was Linshui Mansion's layout in outer space. They organized an offensive and defensive battle near the Moon Station and seized many energy crystals stored by Linshui Mansion in the Moon Station. Then they took the opportunity to provoke a war in Xizhou and recaptured dozens of cities in central Xizhou.

The chaotic situation lasted for fifty years in a blink of an eye.

The Taiyan Sect made money quietly, and through the resources seized in this battle, it trained many inner disciples of the second realm, and some disciples were promoted to the third realm.

Having tasted the sweetness, the Vajra Temple suddenly set its sights on the coastal cities in the north of Zhongzhou, hoping to win over Taoist Master Ru Hui, who was in charge of Zhongzhou affairs. To this end, they specially joined forces with the branch of the Diku Gate, and the two sides finally reached an agreement after several years of discussions.

Wang Ping received the news first, and it was Zhi Gong who sent it to him personally. Soon after, the entire Taiyan Sect's top leaders also learned of the news, and then the Linshui Prefecture's intelligence system learned of the news.

Ao Yi, who was in meditation, received accurate information one month after Wang Ping learned the news. At that time, the northern coastal areas of Zhongzhou were in chaos. He called Ao Hong and Ao Jiang to his side. Ao Jiang was the name Jiang Cun changed after he was promoted to the fourth realm.

"Vajra Temple has been hostile to us all these years. I guess Ke Yun has made some progress in his cultivation. So we should use their tactics against us to see how powerful Ke Yun is!"

Ao Yi expressed his thoughts.

Ao Hong thought for a moment and said, "Brother, what you said is absolutely right, but I think we should do something in Xizhou."

Ao Yi did not refute, but motioned Ao Hong to continue with an approving look.

"Since the Vajra Temple provoked us first, why don't we send out flying boats to destroy the mountains and forests in the northern part of Xizhou, and then directly land on the mainland of Zhongshan Kingdom!"

Ao Hong's tone revealed his desire and excitement for fighting.

Ao Yi did not make a decision immediately. He looked at Ao Jiang and asked, "Ninth brother, what do you think?"

Ao Jiang made a thoughtful expression, and after thinking for more than ten breaths, he replied: "Since we want to test Kaiyun's ability, attacking Zhongshan Kingdom may be the best way."

Ao Yi nodded obviously this time, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's do it this way. You guys will be in charge of the affairs of Xizhou, and I will personally keep an eye on Zhongzhou."

"Yes!"

Then the three brothers discussed some details.

After Ao Hong and Ao Jiang left, Ao Yi quickly made a hand gesture with his right hand, activating the deduction array on the Central Island to deduce the future which he felt had become a little vague.

...

The new year is 312.

More than a hundred years have passed since Wang Ping went out to travel around the world. The war, which was originally only in Zhongzhou and Xizhou, has spread to Zhongshan Kingdom and parts of Dongzhou.

This led to spiritual chaos in some local areas, which cooled down the conflicts between the various factions.

In the third year after Wang Ping returned to the mountaintop dojo, his average progress in forest refining and covering reached (32/100), and his compatibility with his luck dropped to (35/100).

On this day, he was playing chess alone in front of the old locust tree as usual. Suddenly, two sharp auras rose into the sky from the west, and then broke through the atmosphere and entered outer space.

"They have been testing each other for nearly a hundred years. Are they finally going to face each other now?"

Yu Lian looked up at the blue sky, her sight seemed to be able to penetrate the atmosphere and project into outer space. The 'they' she mentioned naturally referred to Ao Yi and Kai Yun.

Over the past nearly one hundred years, the two of them have used Zhongzhou Star as a chessboard to place their pieces against each other, stirring up the situation in various places and causing countless people to be displaced. They have shouldered all the causes and consequences of this chaos.

"Ao Yi probably can't bear any more karma. He needs to advance to the fifth realm. Too much karma may lead to the intolerance of heaven. He has no choice but to intervene personally to interrupt this fight."

Wang Ping had no interest in their fight at all. He casually placed a piece on the table and said to Yu Lian.

At this time, a breath familiar to Wang Ping appeared from the direction of Hushan Kingdom and the north, passing through the atmosphere. Then, a breath also rose into the sky from the direction of Zhenyang Sect and Linshui Prefecture.

They are Huai Mo, Zhi Gong, Gong Wu and Ao Hong!
Then two auras from the demon realm passed through the atmosphere, both of which were unfamiliar to Wang Ping. At the same time, a breath of demon from the direction of Linshui Mansion flashed below the atmosphere.

“It’s really lively!”

Wang Ping placed another move, then stood up, stretched out his hand and pointed lightly at the sky. A clone immediately crossed the sky and flew into outer space, while Wang Ping himself called Yu Lian and said, "Let's go see our old friend."

"Who?"

Yu Lian failed to guess Wang Ping's thoughts, and after reading Wang Ping's thoughts, she asked, "Is it Rong Yang?"

Wang Ping smiled without saying anything. When the rain lotus fell on his shoulder, he disappeared silently with the rain lotus. He appeared outside the barrier of the Zhenyang Sect’s headquarters again. He came to find Rongyang.

Facing the barrier of the Zhenyang Sect, Wang Ping did not release his aura this time. Instead, he passed through the barrier silently and appeared outside Rongyang's dojo, where there were no disciples guarding.

Wang Ping summoned the 'Golden Ball' and in just a moment he caught sight of Rong Yang in the thick smoke underground. When Yu Lian spit a water bomb at the nearby fire spirit energy, Rong Yang underground opened his eyes, and at this moment Wang Ping appeared in front of him.

The thick smoke and dust gradually dissipated along with a stream of water spirit energy. Rong Yang looked at Wang Ping with an expression as if he had seen a ghost. Taoist He Feng on the side instinctively prepared to fight back at any time.

"Hahahaha~"

Rong Yang suddenly burst into laughter.

Wang Ping looked at Rong Yang calmly and laughed.

It took Rong Yang a long time to stop laughing. When he was about to speak, Yu Lian couldn't help but complain: "I thought you were crazy. You scared me to death."

"Ha ha!"

Rong Yang laughed twice more, and first looked at the Taoist He Feng beside him and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Taoist Chang Qing is just visiting an old friend." Then he looked at Wang Ping again, "When did you achieve perfection in your cultivation?"

His question made He Feng's cold face become incredible, as ugly as if he had seen a ghost, and then he really restrained his hostility.

Wang Ping responded with a smile: "More than a hundred years ago!"

Rong Yang couldn't help but shout "good", looked Wang Ping up and down and said: "Your breath is stable, your spirit is full, much better than my condition." Wang Ping stretched out his left hand and lightly tapped, a blessing talisman appeared in front of him, and said to Rong Yang: "The fire spirit in your body contains too many impurities, it is better to purify it than to assimilate it with the fire spirit."

"I would like to purify them, but there is no one to help me, right?"

Rong Yang smiled.

Wang Ping warned: "I can help, but it will cause permanent damage to the fire spirit in your body, reducing your chances of advancing to the fifth realm, or even making it impossible for you to reach the fifth realm."

Rong Yang smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think I can be promoted to the fifth realm? Come on, I'm tired of the influence of these things, and I've lost the opportunity to be promoted to the fifth realm a long time ago. I can accept even the worst result."

Wang Ping nodded silently, and the blessing talisman in front of him sank into Rong Yang's body. Then he used the five elements rules seen by the "Tian Tong Fu" to connect his consciousness to the blessing talisman in Rong Yang's body, and used the wood spirit to forcibly clear out the fire spirit impurities in Rong Yang's body through the blessing talisman.

But after a moment, a dark red light appeared beside Rong Yang. Rong Yang stretched out his hand and pinched the dark red light. Then a flame appeared and burned the dark red light clean.

"not bad!"

Rong Yang commented.

Wang Ping smiled and said, "Why don't you go to my Taoist temple and cooperate with the magic array I set up to clear the impurities of the fire spirit in your body faster."

Taoist He Feng beside him obviously wanted to say something, but Rong Yang responded first: "Well, this place is really not that good."

Wang Ping smiled, bowed to the Taoist He Feng beside him, and then materialized a "transfer talisman". As the space shook, Wang Ping appeared in the underground cave of the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain with Yu Lian and Rong Yang.

With the appearance of Wang Ping, the lighting array in the dark underground cave was automatically activated, illuminating the cave as bright as day. Rong Yang looked around and said with a smile: "Such rich wood and water spirits, which can just suppress the fire spirit in my body. It is indeed a good place to purify the impurities in my body."

Wang Ping stretched out his left hand, took away the cloud bed on the high platform, and spread out several cushions, inviting him, "Let's sit down and talk."

Rong Yang nodded.

Yu Lian rose into the clouds, dived into the dark river beside him and transformed back into his original form, revealing a huge head looking at the two of them.

"Give me some wine."

Rongyang asked for wine as soon as he sat down.

Wang Ping reached out and a jar of fine wine appeared in his hand. He handed the jar to Rong Yang and asked, "When you reached the perfection of the fourth realm, what changes have occurred in the connection between you and the fire spirit?"

Rong Yang removed the seal on the wine jar, held the jar with his right hand and took a few gulps of wine, then stretched out his left hand, and a scorching flame suddenly appeared above the palm of his left hand.

"I feel like I have merged with the fire spirit between heaven and earth. I can mobilize flames at any time. In my eyes, everything is burnable." When Rong Yang said this, he gently shook his flaming left hand, and immediately a trace of yellow wine floated up in the wine jar and turned into a flame.

"It was strange when I faced Ao Yi. I could sense the burning water spirit in his body, but my flames could not be ignited. It was as if the rules of burning were suppressed. I guess this may be the characteristic of water overcoming fire."

Wang Ping nodded. He didn't think Rong Yang would deceive him about this matter. This meant that the Fire Spirit was very pure and existed purely to burn everything.

“Try it!”

Wang Ping stretched out his hand and a trace of wood spirit energy materialized in front of him.

Rong Yang did not hesitate. After taking a sip of the wine, he stretched his left hand forward. The flame that was originally attached to his palm immediately moved closer to the materialized wood spirit energy.

Wang Ping used the 'Tian Tong Fu' to observe the changes in front of him, and saw that the fire spirit particles in the five elements rule became very active, almost turning the flames into a real material form, and continuously melted the other five elements particles with high temperature wherever they passed.

When the flame surrounded the wood spirit energy, Wang Ping sensed the high temperature of the flame through the wood spirit energy. It was as high as that of a star, but Rong Yang deliberately concealed its aura.

Wang Ping glanced at Rong Yang with a smile, knowing that he wanted to compete with him, so he used the power of the "Heaven-Covering Talisman" to solve the formation rules of the fire spirit directly from the source.

"What a great 'Heaven-Covering Talisman'!"

The flame had gone out when Rong Yang was praising it, but it soon reappeared out of thin air at the same place. He stared at the flame and smiled, "I am now completely different from when Xiao Shan was promoted. You think it's too easy to distort my magic, right?"

Wang Ping could see clearly that his flame was ignited again based on the residual fire spirit particles and the fire spirit energy of heaven and earth. It was not a newly summoned flame, and there was no fire spirit formation formed this time. It looked like a normal natural phenomenon.

"hehe."

Wang Ping chuckled, stretched out his left hand and cast out a blessing talisman, directly using the wood spirit to assimilate the fire spirit.

Rong Yang was not willing to be outdone and wanted to gather more fire spirits, but there must be a magic formation set up by Wang Ping here, and he was defeated in just over ten breaths.

"Come again!"

Rong Yang was unwilling.

Wang Ping stretched out his hand and a jar of fine wine appeared in his hand. He smiled and said, "I took advantage of you. Don't mind it, fellow Taoist." As he spoke, he gently touched the jar of wine in Rong Yang's hand with the jar of wine in his hand.

Seeing this, Rong Yang raised his head and took another sip of wine.

Wang Ping took a sip of wine. He just discovered that the fire spirit particles controlled by Rong Yang were very active. If they wanted to, they could even explode. If there were enough fire spirit particles, their detonation could be equivalent to that of a small star, and their destructive power was difficult to estimate.

No wonder there is a saying in the cultivation world: "Don't completely anger the Fire Cultivators, otherwise they may make you regret it."

“This wine is great!”

Rong Yang sighed and put down the wine jar in his hand. He looked up at the dome of the cave and said with a smile: "The battle in outer space should also end soon."

The Taoist Lin Shuang who had been hiding in the dark finally appeared.

Rong Yang asked, "Should I show up now?"

Wang Ping nodded, "You have to maintain a certain tacit understanding with Kaiyun, otherwise he will not risk his life at the last moment. If he doesn't risk his life, Xizhou may survive this disaster. If so, the artifact will still be in the wild land of Xizhou."

Rong Yang laughed when he heard this, "Are you planning to trick Kaiyun at the last minute?"

Wang Ping denied, "No, our goal is to prevent Ao Yi from getting promoted. This is the premise. Only with this premise can we do other things."

Rong Yang laughed, "Then do as you say. I hope I can have a leisurely life after this is over."
