Turning misfortunes into good fortune starts with seizing the direct descendants in Kowloon.

Chapter 343: The Nine Emperors of the Old Heaven, the Divine Monument Beyond the Realm, and the Sages of the Past
Longding Mountain.

A strange black cloud escaped from the entrance of the barrier, emitting a terrifying power fluctuation.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a black magic tower.

However, the phantom of the weapon spirit carried on the surface of the black tower gathered into a human figure, dragging a long magic light, and flew out from Longding Mountain.

The Qigong practitioners from the Taoist League who were watching the wind from the cave entrance, including the scholars from the Confucian Temple, were all slightly startled when they saw this.

"What is this?"

"What an evil aura! Should we intercept it?"

"The leader asked us to guard here to prevent any unexpected situations from happening."

A middle-aged man in gray clothes holding a sword, staring with a serious look, his black beard fluttering under his chin and his long robe rustling in the air.

Even though he was a sword cultivator at the thirteenth level of the immortal realm, he still felt palpitations when facing this black magic tower.

From this, it can be inferred that this magic tower is not an ordinary magic weapon.

"Master Zhou, be careful. This thing doesn't look right. The aura on it is violent and weird. It's extremely strange. I'm afraid it's an ancient object from the cave."

The elders from the Yunxia Mountain, Tenglong Peak and other Taoist alliances simultaneously cast magical spells and attacked the black magic tower.

I want to collect and suppress it from a distance.

However, the surface of the black magic tower was protected by a black mist, and even the two Taoist Alliance True Lords and a sword cultivator in the Immortal Realm could not stop it at all.

The speed of the black magic tower was astonishing, comparable to the magical power of a third-grade cultivator to fly and gallop across the sky and earth. It turned into a ray of light and rushed towards the vast and boundless Great Wall in the North.

The Northern Great Wall stretches for hundreds of thousands of miles from east to west.

Deep inside the Great Wall, there is a deep darkness, like a forbidden area.

There was a faint candlelight standing on a stone cliff.

Wu Gongyu stood on the top of the cliff, gazing into the distance, with her black hair cascading down her shoulders. Her emotionless dark green demon eyes were captivating, her skin was as white as the finest white marble, and her moist red lips were gently closed.

This look is inherently domineering and indifferent to life.

"Sure enough, it's here."

It seemed like Wu Gongyu had known that something would pass by here, so he was waiting here early.

Next to her stood an old woman wearing a light pink peach blossom coat.

"Everyone says that greed is human nature. Granny Taohua, why do you think gods are also greedy?" Wu Gongyu looked up at the sky, thoughtfully.

The old woman smiled gently and replied: "Where there is interest, there is competition."

Wu Gongyu murmured, "Then can I really reshape the order of this world?"

"As long as the Queen can use the divine object to break through to the realm of God, not to mention reshaping order, even reshaping reincarnation is possible."

Wu Gongyu's eyes gradually became sharper.

The next second, a streak of black light appeared across the sky at an extremely fast speed.

Wu Gongyu stretched out his hand, and a piece of black tortoise shell floated up. He mobilized the power of the devil in his body, and his green devil pupils emitted a luster like a water curtain.

In an instant, an invisible barrier appeared in the void, blocking the progress of the flowing light.

"receive!"

Wu Gongyu let out a light shout and performed a very special time and space witch technique.

The flow of time in the surrounding world becomes extremely slow, almost like it is still.

"It is a magic tower left behind by a god."

Wu Gongyu saw the object clearly and after examining it carefully, Granny Taohua added:

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the life-saving magic weapon of one of the nine emperors of the old heaven, the Thousand Evils Pagoda."

Wu Gongyu glanced at the magic tower in front of him, unable to connect it with the majestic Heavenly Court: "The nine emperors of the old Heavenly Court? You mean..."

"The Abandoned Demon Emperor."

Granny Taohua said a name.

She has lived for a long time and witnessed many legends.

"The Abandoned Heaven Demon Emperor, whose real name is Abandoned Heaven, is the emperor of the Heavenly Court, one of the nine heavens and earths. However, due to an accident, he touched a mysterious object from the Heavenly Court and became possessed by the devil. Afterwards, he also sacrificed and refined an evil object such as the Thousand Evils Pagoda. Since then, he betrayed the Heavenly Court and became the Abandoned Heaven Demon Emperor."

Wu Gongyu looked at the weapon spirit struggling in the flow space, pressed his five fingers on the ground, and a series of curse seals emitted faint light, and he suddenly chanted:

"Rashomon."

"Boom!"

The ground shook, and a gate of hell that looked like a huge scarlet mouth quickly rose from the ground.

It swallowed the black magic tower and suppressed it.

After doing all this, she looked at Granny Taohua and said, "Granny, can you tell me more about what happened next?"

"of course can."

Granny Taohua smiled.

The Great Underworld God of Taozhi Mountain, who is known as the Peach Blossom Goddess, looks like a kind old grandmother in front of Wu Gongyu.

"Most of the following stories are already familiar to you, so I will just pick out some new ones to tell you."

"After the war of ascension to the gods, it is the era of the rise of the human race. Since ancient times, the three major races of heaven and earth have been favored by the way of heaven, namely the demon race, the witch race, and the human race.

After the human race exterminated the gods, they completely entered the era of destiny. At the same time, the nine worlds were shattered in the war. Only the three worlds that remain are intact, namely the Middle Earth World, the Wild World, and the Holy Underworld World. "

"That is, the lower three realms, the human world in the eyes of the gods."

"Then doesn't that mean there are also the middle three realms and the upper three realms?" Wu Gongyu said strangely.

Granny Taohua nodded and said, "There were some in the past, but later on the six realms were so fragmented that the three middle realms were merged with the Middle Earth, which are now Haoran Continent, Wanfo Continent, and Qingming Continent in the human domain."

“And the upper three realms, which have the most favorable living soil and are known as the land of ascension, are still in the hands of the ancient gods?” Wu Gongyu guessed.

"Yes and no. The powerful gods of the ancient times are dead. The upper three realms have long since become a land of chaos. Those who remain should be people who are not to be feared. However, some of them, like the Abandoned Demon Emperor, have fallen into the path of the demons. That place has long been a land of chaos and foulness."

Granny Peach Blossom seems to have no attachment to the upper world at all.

"Then the gods of my clan are also in the upper three realms, right?"

At this moment, Wu Gongyu finally felt that he was close to the truth of this world.

Granny Taohua said with a smile: "Not only are they in the upper three realms, they also drove out these filthy gods and established a new order."

Wu Gongyu looked at the pitch-black magic tower in Rashomon and said seriously, "In that case, instead of following the Abandoned Demon Emperor who has fallen for tens of thousands of years, you might as well submit to me."

The pitch-black magic tower stopped struggling at this time. Instead, it turned into a green blood bead and fell silent.

Wu Gongyu took out the green blood bead and held it in his hand. A cold touch came from the palm of his hand.

Granny Taohua glanced at the green blood bead and tilted her head to ask, "Have you made up your mind, Queen, when will you send troops to the Middle-earth?"

"This is the will of God after all."

the other side.

Facing Lu Mingyuan's question, Patriarch Yuqing and Bai Ze both showed different expressions.

Patriarch Yuqing showed an extremely helpless smile, while Bai Ze closed his eyes and did not intend to get involved in the matter.

"Okay! Since you are so eager to know the truth, I will take you to see what this world is like today."

Patriarch Yuqing flicked his finger, and a circle of golden Dao Qi emanated from his fingertips, enveloping Lu Mingyuan and Bai Ze, ignoring Yun Qinghe. When the light dissipated, their figures disappeared at the top of Feisheng Mountain.

In the Ascension Ruins, all the Dao League disciples bowed at the same time, saying at the same time: "Farewell, Master!"

"Farewell to the Patriarch!"

Under the protection of Master Yuqing, Lu Mingyuan kept flying higher.

Break the barrier of the Longding Mountain Cave Heaven.

Ten thousand meters.

Thirty thousand meters.

Ninety thousand meters.

Until they arrived at the dark and boundless world beyond heaven, there was a biting cold in this place, comparable to the temperature of minus a thousand degrees Celsius, and basically not many cultivators could endure it.

A stream of water appeared in Lu Mingyuan's field of vision, but it was as huge as the stars and there was no end in sight.

Isn’t this the depths of the starry sky?
Why is there water deep in the starry sky?
Lu Mingyuan was secretly surprised.

In all corners of the world, there is a vast river of stars flowing with fast-flowing water and strange rules following the flow of the river.

The Milky Way flows in the universe in a circular shape. There is no river channel, only planets suspended on both sides of the Milky Way, forming a simple river embankment.

Although Lu Mingyuan appeared calm, he was still extremely shocked in his heart.

Even in his previous life, he had never seen the universe with his own eyes.

But now, I see it.

If it weren’t for Patriarch Yuqing, it would have been difficult for him to come here.

What kind of power could allow the galaxy to float in all directions of Middle-earth? What kind of place is the place where the gods live?
"These galaxies are filled with terrifying void power. It's best not to touch them lightly."

Patriarch Yuqing gave a reminder and continued to lead Lu Mingyuan across the galaxy. There was nothing blocking their view.

Instead, a large area of ​​white fog appeared.

When Lu Mingyuan saw the white mist, he felt it was very familiar. Isn’t this the white mist in the underground ruins?
These white mists can instantly control a person's consciousness, turning him or her into an empty shell, which is extremely dangerous.

They are basically synonymous with destruction.

Can destroy all life.

Wherever the white fog passes, there is nothingness.

The holy consciousness cannot penetrate the white fog at all.

"The end of the starry sky is the white fog?" Lu Mingyuan asked, looking up.

Patriarch Yuqing waved his hand and said directly: "Look, what is this?"

Lu Mingyuan looked into the distance.

It was discovered that there were many desolate stars in front of the white mist.

But if you look closely, these are not actually stars.

But they are stone tablets.

A huge stone monument.

There are endless golden words on the stone tablet.

Each line of text seemed like a desolate moon hanging in the sky, emitting a light as bright as a star, just like the sun in the starry sky.

It is these stone tablets that form a cosmic Great Wall, surrounding the edge of the starry sky and blocking the white fog.

In this regard, Master Yuqing explained: "These are divine tablets from outside the realm, which can prevent the white mist from eroding this starry sky."

Lu Mingyuan thought for a moment and asked, "Why can the outer-world monument resist the white fog? What is beyond the white fog?"

Patriarch Yuqing said: "The battle of ascension a hundred thousand years ago not only interrupted the path to ascension, causing the ascension platforms to be scattered everywhere, but also caused the white mist to corrode the heaven. These outer-world divine tablets are the products of that time. They are all things left by the gods. It has been too long, and I don’t know the reason.

As for what lies beyond the white fog, it is the world outside the Heavenly Gate, the upper realm.

After the fall of the human gods, the path to ascension was sealed, preventing any human cultivators from entering the upper realm to practice.

Of course, you can use the power of the Ascension Platform to open the closed Ascension Road."

Bai Ze, who had been silent, smiled and looked at Master Yuqing with deep eyes:

"Yuqing, there is one thing you don't have to be so shy about."

Bai Ze stared at his side and said, "Lu Mingyuan, do you know where the power of these outer-world monuments comes from?"

Lu Mingyuan had some guesses about this question, but not many.

"Let me tell you, all the ancestors of your human race, including the ancestors of my demon race, are here."

When Lu Mingyuan heard this, his pupils trembled.

He looked at Master Yuqing in disbelief: "Senior Yuqing, is this true?"

"Yes"

Patriarch Yuqing sighed deeply and said slowly: "The Buddha, the Saint of Rites, the Sub-Saint, including the Taoist Patriarch, Senior Brother Taiqing, and Senior Brother Shangqing, all of them have filled this place with their own cultivation."

"They spread out here just to maintain the operation of the Extraterritorial Divine Monument."

"But now, these outer-world monuments can no longer hold out for much longer."

"The only way is to activate the ascension platform and go to the upper realm, to the other side of the white mist."

Patriarch Yuqing's tone became heavy, even a little helpless.

Bai Ze snorted coldly: "Who knows what is on the other side of the white mist? Your so-called journey to the upper realm is to satisfy your own selfish desires, or to escape the fate of the sacrificial Dao. You are just afraid of death."

Patriarch Yuqing said calmly: "This concerns the future of the human race, and you have no say."

Lu Mingyuan was silent after hearing this.

He never imagined that the truth would be so heavy.

For the sake of Middle-earth, one by one, the human ancestors sacrificed themselves to save the lives of the common people.

“So Wei Laojiu never ascended to the upper realm at all. He also dissipated his cultivation and turned into a divine monument in the starry sky.” Lu Mingyuan murmured.

Recalling the moment when Wei Laojiu disappeared.

There wasn't even a trace of attachment to the human world in his eyes.

But he told himself that he was affected by the laws of heaven and could not stay in the local world.

"You should be talking about that martial arts great saint. He is the only martial arts master who has reached the Fourteenth Realm in the past thousand years. He has bought at least ten years for the Middle-earth. During the long years of guarding the starry sky, I have met him several times."

Yuqing Patriarch explained.

Lu Mingyuan understood now.

Why is Taoism so eager to find the ascension platform?

Only by finding the ascension platform can the human race get rid of this method of exchanging human lives for peace.

Bai Ze, on the other hand, believed that the ascension platform should not be allowed to come into the world.

If this status quo is maintained, both humans and demons can survive.

You can’t go gambling. Who knows what’s outside Tianmen?
What if it’s white fog again?
After the gods were destroyed, the sages of the human race in all generations still guarded the starry sky above people's heads even after their death.
