Taoist Master Xuanhuang

Chapter 730 Fate?

It's unclear whether the group of cultivators attacked the secret swamp because of themselves or for other reasons.

But that didn't stop him from worrying. Even if it wasn't directed at him, he was worried about what would happen if his presence was discovered.

Although he may not have killed a large number of people, he was extremely evil and extreme, definitely one of those on the list, no doubt about it.

Moreover, his biggest weakness is his Secret Realm Dantian. Because of the existence of the Secret Realm Dantian, he cannot run away unless he gives up the Secret Realm Dantian.

But if you give up the secret dantian, all your efforts over the years will be in vain.

Why go to such lengths to construct a secret dantian?

It's because they discovered the difference between saints and monks. A saint is like a crippled monk, lacking both stamina and endurance.

Combining the methods found by his subordinates with his own outstanding talent, he created the Secret Realm Dantian Method.

The purpose is to build the secret realm into a dantian, a dantian with ultimate potential.

Then, he refined it into himself, broke through in one fell swoop, and reached the Dantian World, which is the level of a fourth-order king.

The first to third stages of the dantian simply involve an expansion of its area. However, upon reaching the fourth stage and achieving the status of a king, the true self merges into the dantian, transforming it from a simple dantian into a dantian world.

The world is the level that a fourth-tier king should be at.

A cultivator's dantian transforms into a world, representing a continuous source of magical power, and the dantian world also possesses the abilities of a world.

Even though it's just the weakest kind of tiny world, or even less.

It can represent hope, the hope of continuous transformation.

If he were discovered by cultivators, he would inevitably have to abandon his secret realm dantian, which was not what he wanted.

Without the secret realm dantian, all his previous efforts would be in vain, and once he was discovered by cultivators, he would have no chance.

Such an evil law cannot be ignored by cultivators.

Therefore, whether the cultivators discovered themselves or simply attacked the secret swamp, it was all the same.

"How could this be?"

Lao Ai was extremely anxious, even a little crazy.

The only solution right now is to hold out in the secret swamp and wait until the swamp discovers you as late as possible.

Ideally, it should take at least ten years to break through. Only then will I have time to continue refining the secret realm dantian. Once I succeed, I can take the secret realm dantian back into my body, and then I will no longer be afraid of cultivators.

The only thing that could speed this up was to have his subordinates work faster, but how could that be sped up? It's like a pregnancy that can't be accelerated.

In order to remain hidden, he had previously recalled all his subordinates who were out and about, and temporarily prevented them from going out to cut off any possibility of being discovered.

The recalled subordinates are now back to work, and even if they have to survive, they have to take it one step at a time.

"We can only accelerate continuously," Lao Ai said.

When he said those words, there was not a trace of pity or reluctance, as if these subordinates were not human beings at all, or at least not in his eyes.

They're just brick-moving machines. Previously, in the spirit of sustainability, we would give our subordinates a break period to avoid depleting their resources.

I can't worry about that now, once I give birth, I'll get back to work as quickly as possible.

Only in this way can we accelerate the process of building up the dantian in the secret realm and race against time with the other cultivators.

"Even though doing so will destroy the power of their own essence, we can't worry about that now. It is their honor to sacrifice for their master."

Lao Ai has gone mad.

…………

"That's insane. To kill a demon-possessed saint, they're actually going to destroy a secret swamp. No wonder they're one of the Four Supers."

Because of the Martial Arts Alliance's actions, this remote place quickly became a bustling hub.

Even the surrounding cities inhabited by other ethnic groups were requisitioned.

For the first time, the alien beings experienced what it meant to be a true cultivator of the core domain, and what it meant to be the master of this world.

The four exotic towns near the edge of the secret swamp have all been requisitioned.

Although these four cities are called small cities, they are actually quite large.

It's important to understand that a city is more than just a city; a country is an even better description.

Below cities are county towns, below county towns are townships, and below townships are villages.

All of these elements combined make up a city.

Each city has a population of up to one billion. Some cities are remnants of a small world after its destruction, while others are cities formed by combining the destructions of several small worlds.

After being integrated into the main world, they naturally merged together.

In the foreign city, a first-level Xuanbian cultivator was once an absolute master.

It is an entity that can influence the development of a city.

The true cultivators recruited by the Martial Alliance this time were all at least at the first level of the Profound Transformation stage, meaning that even a soldier was at least at the first level of the Transcendent stage.

When have these four major cities ever seen so many extraordinary beings?

Even the strongest experts in their own city weren't qualified to be cannon fodder in front of this massive army.

They are truly not qualified, because the true cultivators of the Martial Arts Alliance are all cultivators whose foundation lies in the Three Great Laws.

The first-tier profound transformation techniques in these cities are remnants from previous worlds and cannot be compared with the three invincible techniques.

Even ten of them combined couldn't defeat a single soldier from the Martial Arts Alliance, let alone the fact that there are only six first-tier Xuan Transformation cultivators in the entire four major cities.

In other words, even a single soldier could destroy their four major cities.

With such a vast difference, they had no right to resist.

They also do not qualify to be eradicated.

To be eliminated, one must qualify as to be eliminated; one must pose a certain threat.

The four major cities don't even have that right. Don't worry about being wiped out; just be obedient.

It's not even a danger, but an opportunity.

Because the Martial Arts Alliance said immediately upon taking control: "You have been recruited by our Martial Arts Alliance and will henceforth belong to our Martial Arts Alliance protected cities. Do you have any objections? If so, raise them now."

This isn't evil people forcibly seizing homes; it's practically a blessing!

The martial arts alliance members are practically Evangelion warriors, aren't they?

I was just worried about not finding a strong protector, but I never expected to be protected by the greatest power in the world. This is wonderful.

In an instant, you can feel that everything is changing every second.

Having taken over the four major cities, the Martial Arts Alliance quickly established various departments, formations, and even a small teleportation array.

This means they are connected to the internet.

That's right, setting up a teleportation array is tantamount to getting involved in the mainstream of the world.

Don't underestimate this small teleportation array; it means you can travel to any part of the world through it.

What does this mean? Need I say more?

It's like a super civilization spanning the universe discovered Earth and established a space node wormhole technology on Earth.

In just one step, Earth became a hub in the universe.

Moreover, this hub is not a barbaric place without order or civilization; it is a hub protected by the top forces in the universe, meaning that no one dares to act recklessly.

We must abide by the rules; rules are civilization, they are order.

And how to avoid exciting the four major cities.

Even the former rulers of the four cities willingly stepped down to become lackeys, knowing that even being a lackey of the four superpowers requires strength.

If you don't have certain abilities, why should I take you in as my dog?

You need to be able to guard the house, bite people, and have a special skill.

Along with the Martial Arts Alliance came countless independent cultivators and various merchant guilds.

A teleportation point has been established here, representing a prime location for a high-speed rail exit. How could some merchants not see the potential benefits? Powerful groups arrive daily, opening their own shops and so on.

Simply providing various logistical supplies to the Martial Arts Alliance can make a fortune.

In an instant, all of this washed over the minds of the natives of the four major cities.

There are almost no cultivators at the entry level; those who can come here are all adults with extraordinary cultivation.

It's so impactful. What was once a closed-off small city has suddenly entered a great era of civilization.

Seeing that there was a bargain to be had, the rogue cultivators also followed.

The Four Super Operations represent opportunities and business chances; even being cannon fodder can earn you more than risking your life before.

Groups of independent cultivators gathered together.

They marveled at the Martial Arts Alliance's madness, planning to destroy a secret swamp in order to kill a demonic saint.

"It's not just for the sake of merit. Look at the golden-bodied cultivators who keep coming. They are also growing stronger. This is also an opportunity for them."

A monk reminded.

"Indeed, extraordinary energy is hard to find, but secret realms and swamps are plentiful. With the Golden Body Ancestor Lin Fan leading the way, the Golden Body Flowing Void will probably take a big step forward this time. The Martial Alliance has achieved several things at once."

"That's right. Don't forget, the secret realm is also a kind of resource that can be refined into the dantian world."

There is a path of cultivation.

"Could the legend be true?"

After hearing this secret, a monk asked a question.

As we all know, the dantian space is key, the key to nurturing the spirits of the five internal organs. Only when the dantian space is large enough can one have the opportunity to learn the great supernatural powers of the five internal organs.

Besides relying on a cultivator's talent through self-cultivation, there are other ways to strengthen the dantian space.

The most widely circulated method at present is the Spirit Fusion Method.

It involves integrating the spiritual elements of heaven and earth into the dantian, which not only increases the size of the dantian but also allows one to refine these spiritual elements and comprehend the seeds of supernatural powers.

But only the ancient monks knew that there were other ways.

For example, refining something as strange as the dantian, once successful, can definitely condense into a seed of supernatural power, which is equivalent to turning strange rules into a seed of supernatural power.

Once you reach the fourth stage, it's time for the seed to bear fruit, similar to an innate supernatural power.

It is a very powerful secret technique.

However, few people know this anymore, firstly because without the supernatural, there are naturally no resources to refine it.

Furthermore, due to the deliberate prohibition of its dissemination by higher authorities, those who know this secret method are all ancient cultivators and experts.

Another way to strengthen the dantian is to refine the secret realm space and incorporate it into the dantian. Although this cannot form a seed of supernatural power, it can increase the area of ​​the dantian.

A larger dantian not only allows for the cultivation of the Five Internal Organs Divine Powers, but also enhances one's strength.

The size of the dantian determines the strength of a cultivator's magical power. Among cultivators of the same level, the one with a larger dantian can easily overwhelm the one with a smaller dantian.

There are many, many benefits to having a larger dantian.

However, this Dantian Secret Realm Refining Method is only known to experts, and the secret cultivation method is only possessed by powerful forces.

Ordinary independent cultivators and small forces have only heard of it, and even doubt whether it is true.

"Hmph, it's not a legend at all, it's real! They just don't want us cultivators from other realms to know."

This statement illustrates a fact.

They are cultivators from another realm, that is, beings from a small world.

They are not pure humans from Earth.

There are differences between different realms. The core area is not inhabited only by pure humans; there are also many alien humans living there.

After all, the Small World Alliance is, strictly speaking, also a kind of alien species.

"really!"

Upon hearing his affirmative answer, the other cultivators from other realms spoke up.

"I heard it from a senior member of a small world alliance... After the saying that 'laws are not easily passed on,' many ancient secret techniques, as well as some powerful secret arts and treasures, have been hidden away. If you want to learn them, you can only join a major power."

"Will you meet up with fellow cultivators?" a cultivator asked expectantly.

"How could that be? Even the senior who told me the secret couldn't do it, how could I... If I could, it would mean I have a chance to learn the Dao Lord's great supernatural powers."

The man said regretfully.

If only I knew it myself. Although I know the Secret Realm Spirit Fusion Method, it doesn't mean I can learn the Five Organs Divine Power.

After all, even if one knows secret techniques, it doesn't necessarily mean that one's dantian can be strong enough to learn supernatural powers.

Although the expert from the Small World Alliance didn't tell him, he felt it wouldn't be that easy.

Not everyone who knows the Secret Realm Spirit Fusion Technique can necessarily learn the Five Organs Divine Power.

This is impossible.

Secret techniques are secondary; the most important thing is a strong will.

A strong will is the key to learning all supernatural powers.

However, these secrets were intentionally hidden by others. Everyone knows that willpower is important, but no one knew that willpower was this important.

It is the premise for all the laws established by the Dao Lord.

He told him that the expert in that little world was actually just a nobody.

"Pity!"

Everyone sighed with regret, secretly wishing they knew the Secret Realm Spirit Fusion Technique, which would not only increase their dantian size but also allow them to learn great supernatural powers.

Great supernatural powers are legendary beings.

They are very close to them, yet remain out of reach.

Where is the great supernatural power?
As everyone knows, in the Scripture Pavilion left by the Lord of the Dream Realm, anyone who can enter the Dream Gate during a dream is qualified to study.

but!

But, as always, he still came.

However, learning these supernatural abilities has prerequisites; certain conditions must be met, and guidance is required step by step.

These conditions and guidance were hidden.

It's something you can see but can't eat.

It's clear that the great supernatural powers are displayed somewhere, making it seem like anyone can learn them.

So close, yet so far.

Like a castle in the air, it has been spread as a myth.

When asked, highly skilled masters who possessed great supernatural powers unanimously replied: "This requires opportunity and destiny. You do not have that destiny, so you cannot force it."

You ask again what destiny is?

They would say: It cannot be spoken, it cannot be explained, you must understand it for yourselves.

It's like a never-ending cycle; you can't get any real answers from them.

You can't force them. If you do, they'll see what true power is.

Then he died tragically under the power of the great supernatural force. Now the dead won't ask about fate, right?

Xuanhuang was still alive, but he seemed to be dead.

The various secret techniques and supernatural powers they created, even the invincible methods, have slowly faded into the long river of time.
