Shennong Daojun.

Chapter 485: Which version is this? Why haven’t I played it before?
On the way to being captured by Master Bamboo Sword, Zhao Xing received some information from the Xuanling History Book, and many of his original memories were also unlocked.

When he was in the ancient country of Yuanhai, he learned the names of four gods: Sword God Diyi, Bone God 'Yuan', Sky God 'Guxiao', and Earth God 'Yaojun'.

Later, the names of these four gods disappeared again, as if they had been wiped out from the world.

Now that this part of the memory has been unlocked, Zhao Xing recalled the time when Wang Tianzhi met him in a dream.

It is speculated that these four gods are most likely staying in the Xuanhuang Realm.

So Wei Tianchen said that Xuanhuang Realm was secretive, and Zhao Xing agreed. It was safe? That was not even close to the truth.

Originally, Zhao Xing should have let Ji Si cast a spell, then contact Wang Tianzhi again, understand the situation, and then go back.

But now I have to go back rashly and confusedly, which is really against Mr. Zhao's principles.

After thinking for a while, he replied in the direction of dissuasion: "Old doctor, my hometown has been destroyed. It exploded not long after we ascended."

Wei Tianchen shook his head: "Not necessarily. Shenluohuang has the characteristic of 'hiding and breaking illusions'. Your hometown is not so easy to blow up."

He knew this too? Zhao Xing was a little surprised. Wei Tianchen was indeed an old antique.

However, in Wei Tianchen's opinion, it seemed as if Zhao Xing had originally been unaware of the situation and was then surprised after learning the truth.

Zhao Xing: "You said there is something that can break the illusion. Isn't it very dangerous?"

Wei Tianchen said calmly: "Even if it is dangerous, Qing Yuzi can go there, so why can't we? His realm at that time was lower than mine and Zhu Jian's."

"Your hometown can't be at such a risk."

The more you shirk responsibility, the more counterproductive it will be.

It seems that Wei Tianchen has made up his mind to go to Xuanhuang Realm.

Zhao Xing simply stopped trying to persuade him.

For him, returning to Xuanhuang Realm with two demigods is not without benefits. At least the safety performance is improved.

Zhao Xing came to the core of the magic circle of the White Jade Wuling Ship and input a string of reference system coordinates.

"How long will it take?" Wei Tianchen asked.

"About four years." After Zhao Xing finished inputting, he estimated the approximate time. "If everything goes well, it can be even faster."

"It's only four years, there's no rush." ​​After thinking about it, Wei Tianchen took out a golden hoop from his arms.

"What?" Zhao Xing didn't know what he was going to do.

"Put it on."

"This is……"

"The magic weapon of the learning city, the golden hoop of enlightenment."

"The old doctor actually got this kind of treasure."

Zhao Xing put on the golden hoop obediently.

"You are trapped in the Heavenly Net. You can't practice, and you can't even use your magic power."

"The Enlightenment Golden Hoop is different. You can still practice the Heart Sealing Technique."

After Zhao Xing put on the golden hoop, Wei Tianchen reached out and grabbed it, and the divine artifact Tianluo Net was taken away from his body.

The function of the Golden Hoop of Enlightenment is that, except for a certain targeted spell that can be learned and practiced, all other spells cannot be used.

Wei Tianchen chanted a spell.

A circle of scriptures flashed across the golden hoop, and then not only did a golden hoop appear on Zhao Xing’s body, but a soul also appeared above his head.

Most of the skills on the panel turned gray.

Only the power chapter of the Heart Sealing Technique remains to be practiced.

The Enlightenment Golden Hoop was originally developed by scholars to help people focus on their cultivation. However, it was used by Wei Tianchen to prevent Zhao Xing from escaping.

Now Zhao Xing can do nothing except practicing the Heart Sealing Technique.

Assuming that breaking the divine power restriction is not successful, Wei Tianchen plans to let Zhao Xing complete the Heart Sealing Technique, and then unseal the Seven-Star Cabinet on his behalf and take out the deadly poison inside that can hunt down gods.

"Take two steps."

"You're asking me to take two more steps. Is this a doctor's occupational disease?" Zhao Xing complained in his heart, but still did as he was told.

Wei Tianchen nodded in satisfaction: "Well, not bad. Next, you should practice the secret method well on the boat and don't wander around."

Zhao Xing was given a certain degree of freedom, and of course he would not stay with Wei Tianchen, so he came out immediately and ran to the deck.

At this time, Master Bamboo Sword already had a sword in his left hand, and his right hand reached into the flames, holding another sword.

"Take the sword from the fire, Your Excellency, is this the first time you have taken it so quickly?"

"You are quite knowledgeable. You know all the characteristics of the Seven-Star Fire Sword." Bamboo Sword Master didn't even raise his head.

"I know a little bit." Zhao Xing said modestly.

"The Seven-Star Fire Sword is useless in the hands of outsiders. Only in the hands of the Sword Sect can it display its magical powers. It is not a physical entity, but the true spirit of the sword."

"I took the sword's true spirit from the fire seven times in total. Each time I took it, the true spirit surged, and I could control more of the origin of the sword."

"If you can take it seven times, you can become a sword god."

The Bamboo Sword Master looked up and landed on the Golden Hoop of Enlightenment: "Is this the price of freedom?"

"How can it be called freedom?" Zhao Xing shook his head and sat cross-legged next to the bamboo sword.

"What do you want to practice?" After obtaining the magic sword, Master Bamboo Sword was obviously in a good mood and talked more.

"Concentrate some kind of mana."

"I see that your true spirit has not yet passed the tribulation, but your fighting power is comparable to that of a four-tribulation emperor. Is it because of this?"

"Almost." Zhao Xing nodded.

The magic power of blue and white porcelain encompasses everything and can amplify all secret techniques.

The power of the Red Lotus contains the avenue of destruction and is extremely powerful.

Cangming's magic power strengthens the mind's will, and the Lord's true spirit's will protects it.

The method that Fan Qianrou created based on her exquisite heart has infinite uses and immeasurable value in just the magic power section.

"I have to practice first." Zhao Xing said and closed his eyes, because the golden hoop of enlightenment took effect.

It has the effect of forcing concentration. Zhao Xing now doesn't want to do anything except practicing the Heart Sealing Technique, and he is even a little indifferent to the danger to his life.

Master Bamboo Sword also lowered his head and continued to study the Seven-Star Fire Sword.

…………

"Zhao Xing, wake up, wake up!"

The voice seemed to have a heat, and Zhao Xing suddenly opened his eyes as he felt his body suddenly getting hotter and hotter.

But he discovered that Bamboo Sword Master was burning himself with a fiery red heart sword.

"Huh? Why did I fall asleep?"

"Where are we?"

When I opened my eyes, I was no longer on the boat, but on a desolate hill.

Zhao Xing realized something was wrong. Wasn't he practicing Cangming's magic power on the boat? How did he suddenly come to the barren mountains?
Wei Tianchen was just in front, also sitting cross-legged. His face looked a little solemn, as if he didn't know what was going on.

"Zhao Xing, do you remember anything?" asked Master Bamboo Sword.

"I remember that after I put on the golden hoop for enlightenment, I came to talk to you, Your Excellency, and then began to practice magic power." Zhao Xing was a little confused.

"He doesn't remember either." Bamboo Sword Master looked at Wei Tianchen. "Old Doctor, you have so many treasures, but you still can't find anything unusual?"

Wei Tianchen replaced the magical object beside him. It was obvious that he had been repeating the attempt before Zhao Xing woke up.

"No. Zhu Jian, do you feel anything unusual?"

"Your swordsmanship can see through all illusions. Are we in some kind of illusion or dream now?"

The Bamboo Sword Master was waving a Lihuo Sword in his hand, and the blade reflected the Master's appearance.

"Everything is normal. We are not in a dream or illusion."

"Wait, why are you asking that?" Zhao Xing was a little surprised. "Dream? You two masters can't tell the difference between a dream and reality?"

"We don't know when we got here." Bamboo Sword Master said in a deep voice, "The last memory I had of the old doctor and I was that I was comprehending the Lihuo Divine Sword, and he was reading a scripture."

"After leaving the state of enlightenment, I was on this barren mountain."

"The old doctor and I can neither tell where we are nor how much time has passed."

“It all seemed like a dream.”

"We can't remember the beginning of a dream, just as we can't remember when we entered this place."

Wei Tianchen stood up, and the seven or eight divine objects that were glowing with light around him were all put away.

Then he stared at Zhao Xing.

"Zhao Xing, you really didn't feel anything?"

"No." Zhao Xing was helpless: "Old doctor, why do you suspect that I did something?"

"My strength is far inferior to yours. If I had this ability, wouldn't I just run away?"

Wei Tianchen stopped talking and just looked around with a frown. Master Bamboo Sword also looked at the sky, as if he was getting familiar with this world.

After a brief moment of confusion, Zhao Xing quickly opened the panel.

There is a record above:
[You have entered the 'Xuanhuang Realm', coordinates: Jiyang 3, Shenyue 4, Yuan 342. ]

"What the hell, Xuanhuang Realm?"

Zhao Xing was shocked.

When did this come back?

And I can’t understand the coordinates of the Xuanhuang Realm.

"What are you surprised about?" Wei Tianchen and Bamboo Sword Master clearly noticed Zhao Xing's expression.

"I..." Zhao Xing hesitated.

"We have arrived at your hometown, right?" Wei Tianchen asked.

"Yes." Zhao Xing smiled bitterly: "But I'm not sure anymore, because the changes are quite big."

"Old doctor, you never told me that Zhao Xing's hometown is so dangerous." The Bamboo Sword Master frowned and said, "This world is much larger than I imagined. My Heart Sword power has just spread for three quarters of an hour, but I still can't see the end."

"Zhu Jian, this is why I'm here." Wei Tianchen said, "Do you know that Qing Yuzi was originally just a person who held a lantern and watched over graves in the Samsara Temple, but after the Desolate Domain Era, he achieved the realm of God."

"In this era where cultivation is difficult and disasters are strong, he can achieve such great success. It is definitely not his own strength." Zhao Xing was a little surprised: "Old doctor, you are not here to unlock the seal, but to find an opportunity?"

The Xuanling history book unlocked the history of the ancient country of Yuanhai. Some people were shocked by the arrogance of the ancient Dongyan tribe, some were angry about losing their lifelong cultivation, and some regretted the disaster.

Some people, however, saw Qing Yuzi's path to becoming a god and found it strange and inexplicable. They tried to find out the reason and replicate his path.

The Bamboo Sword Master's expression turned cold: "Old Doctor, no matter what your plan is, this is not what I want."

He grabbed Zhao Xing with one hand at lightning speed and pointed the sword at Wei Tianchen with the other hand: "The deal is terminated. He belongs to me now, and we have to leave here."

Wei Tianchen did not stop them. He just watched Bamboo Sword Master and Zhao Xing fly up into the sky, muttering to himself, "Too naive... This is definitely a divine method. Since they don't know how they got in, how can they let you out so easily?"

As expected, not long after Bamboo Sword Master took Zhao Xing up into the sky, he descended at an even faster speed.

Wei Tianchen didn't care. Looking at the somewhat embarrassed bamboo sword, he quickly asked, "What did you find?"

"Cough cough...Puff~" Master Bamboo Sword first coughed, and then actually spat out a mouthful of blood.

Zhao Xing was still very confused, because the bamboo sword was too fast, and he was restricted by the golden hoop of enlightenment and could not use magic to detect it at all. In a very short time, the bamboo sword took him up to the sky and down again.

"There's something wrong with the laws of the universe in Xuanhuang Realm." Bamboo Sword Master was somewhat shocked: "With my strength, I can't even ascend to the realm."

"What?" Wei Tianchen and Zhao Xing were both shocked.

Wei Tianchen was shocked that the rules of the Xuanhuang Realm were so solid. Zhu Jian was the master of swords, so how could he not break through the boundaries and ascend?

Zhao Xing was shocked by the unknown changes that happened in the Xuanhuang Realm. Originally, he could ascend to the realm of Li Dao, but now even a demigod cannot ascend.

"It's totally off the mark. What version is this? Why haven't I played it before?" Mr. Zhao was also extremely puzzled.

He knew that the Xuanhuang Realm was not simple, but he didn't expect it to be so terrifying.

Assuming that even demigods cannot ascend, doesn’t that mean one needs to be in the divine realm to ascend?
"Zhao Xing, this is your hometown..."

"Don't ask!" Zhao Xing said impatiently to Wei Tianchen: "Look at me, do I look like I know? I told you not to come, don't come, but you insisted on coming."

Now that Zhu Jian and Wei Tianchen have a disagreement, Master Zhao no longer treats Wei Tianchen well.

"Wei Tianchen, let's go our separate ways! You go your way, and we go ours!"

Wei Tianchen was not angry, but just shook his head slowly: "It can't be divided."

Zhu Jian raised his eyebrows and the tip of the sword rose slightly.

Wei Tianchen pointed at the golden hoop of enlightenment on Zhao Xing's head and said, "The scholar friend I asked to build this thing. If it leaves a certain range of me, it will self-destruct. Zhu Jian, you are not a mechanical master, you can't unlock the limitations of this ancient magic weapon."

This is not a product of the contemporary academy, but was developed by scholars from the Five Emperors era.

"Old doctor, we don't really want to leave. It's actually very dangerous to separate in the current situation. Only cooperation can lead to a win-win situation." Zhao Xing's attitude immediately changed drastically.

There is no way. Wei Tianchen, this pervert, actually asked someone to turn the enlightenment golden hoop into the 'self-destructing enlightenment golden hoop'.

If a disciple doesn’t study and goes out to play, he will be killed?

That friend of yours is a mage scholar, right?!
The Bamboo Sword Master fell into deep thought and threw out four bamboo swords.

One sword points to the sky, one sword drills into the ground, and two swords sweep in all directions.

As a result, the bamboo sword in the sky quickly fell down and broke into three pieces, as if it had been struck by lightning.

The bamboo sword that drilled into the mountain was stuck in the crevice of the rock.

The two bamboo swords flew out and never came back.

A heart-shaking roar came from the distance.

It was obviously an ordinary mountain, but it made the three of them feel cold.

"Okay, let's cooperate and get out of this mountain first." Master Bamboo Sword also agreed.

In fact, Zhao Xing wanted to separate from Wei Tianchen because he was familiar with this world.

In addition, Wang Tianzhi is still here. As long as he can go out and find Lao Wang and Da Zhou, he will always have a place to stay and can understand the situation of the New Xuanhuang Realm clearly.

Now we may not even be able to get out of this mountain, we still have to rely on the two big guys to lead the way.

"Zhao Xing is from Xuanhuang Realm, let him lead the way." Zhu Jian suggested.

"I can lead the way, but can you take this off?" Zhao Xing pointed to the golden hoop on his head.

"No." Wei Tianchen shook his head. "Now that my cultivation is suppressed, I can't take it down."

Zhao Xing looked suspicious: "Is your cultivation suppressed?"

"He didn't lie, he was really silenced."

The flame in the hands of Bamboo Sword Master had become much weaker, and most of the sword had been pulled out, leaving only the hilt.

"How much cultivation do you have left?"

"You can't ask that." Wei Tianchen said, "This kind of suppression is not single. I don't feel that the level of Tao has dropped, and my true spirit has been suppressed. It's just that some spells cannot be used."

"In some aspects, we are still demigods, such as mana. My mana is still inexhaustible, but some aspects are restricted by this world. For example, the magic spell for controlling weapons is no longer effective. It seems that there is no such thing as magic spell in this world, so I can't remove your golden hoop."

"Really?" Zhao Xing tried, but still couldn't take out the golden hoop.

According to Wei Tianchen, it means the lock is still there but the key is gone?
"My limitations are different." Bamboo Sword Master thought, "I just threw out four bamboo swords, and only the amplification effect of the Heart Sword Technique is still there. The power of the other sword techniques has been greatly reduced, especially the southeast and the sky."

"Is there a theory of suppression and change of direction?" Zhao Xing also fell into thought.

He is now wearing the golden hoop of enlightenment, but he doesn't feel anything. When he opens the panel, he finds that many skills have turned gray.

All of the Self-Dharma, except for the Heart-Field Dharma, turned gray. The inner world was still bright, but it also showed abnormal restrictions.

Zhao Xing had a vague guess in his mind.

"What have you thought of?" asked the Bamboo Sword Master. His sword mind technique was still effective and he could feel that Zhao Xing's mind had just fluctuated.

"What else can I think of? You are all restricted. This is already a method of God." Zhao Xing avoided the question. "I know nothing about the power of the God Realm. I don't know as much as you two do."

The Bamboo Sword Master said, "I once saw a sword god somewhere. He called himself 'Lonely Swordsman' and demonstrated the thirteen sword techniques to me using a bamboo sword."

"I only learned four styles, including the Heart Sword Technique."

"He said that the Thirteen Styles of Bamboo Sword can cut off karma and fate, and he helped me cut off the ninth true spirit calamity. Because of this, I became a demigod."

Zhao Xing was a little shocked. He used a bamboo sword to help someone get rid of the ninth true spiritual calamity and help him become a demigod?

This is too mysterious, so Wei Tianchen said it more specifically: "The Emperor of Samsara controls the Dharma Realm, and the demigods control the Dharma Realm. Each path is to absorb the origin of the universe and master the origin of the universe. From the Dharma Realm to the Dharma Realm, one's own origin is closer to the essence of the universe."

"When we talk about the divine realm, we have to mention the method of becoming a god."

Wei Tianchen had broader knowledge. When Zhao Xing and Zhu Jian heard Wei Tianchen talk about the way to become a god, they immediately listened quietly.

"In the era of the Five Emperors, there were three distinct ways to attain godhood."

"The self proves the truth, the heaven and earth prove the truth, and the destiny proves the truth."

"After the Five Emperors disappeared, the Qiyun Proof of the Way no longer exists, so there is no need to mention it."

"The self-realization is probably the case with martial artists like Zhu Jian, who only seek to cultivate their own egos in the vain attempt to realize the great way."

The Bamboo Sword Master said calmly, "Your words are a bit offensive."

Wei Tianchen: "I don't despise warriors. Those who have attained the Tao of the Self are all the same regardless of their profession. Those who have magic bodies and magic spells, martial arts golden bodies, mechanical Taoist soldiers, and those who follow their hearts and only pursue themselves are all attaining the Tao of the Self."

"This kind of divine realm can be called 'free god'."

The Bamboo Sword Master snorted, "Then what is the Heaven and Earth Proving the Way?"

Wei Tianchen: "My type."

Zhu Jian sneered.

Zhao Xing vaguely thought of something.

Wei Tianchen raised his eyebrows and looked at the sky: "The Tao benefits the heaven and earth, its heart shines through the ages, and its power is great and infinite. It is to prove the Tao for the heaven and earth."

Zhao Xing seemed to understand something: "Old doctor, does the Red Star Emperor count?"

"Yes, and no." Wei Tianchen nodded: "He created the mechanical Taoist weapon [Hunyuan Taoist Tower], which can suppress the inner world. He said it is beneficial to the Si Nong of my own sect. Humans are also part of the world. The stronger the Si Nong of my own sect is, the stronger the emperor will be."

"But he is actually usurping someone else's path. There is a reason why your Primordial Realm has not had any records of the Divine Realm for a long time."

"His path is also very narrow and does not directly benefit the universe."

"On the contrary, it's Guluo River. Forget it, he won't say anything. He is doomed to fail."

Master Bamboo Sword was confused, but Zhao Xing understood.

Wei Tianchen must know Guluohe’s philosophy.

Assuming that Guluohe can succeed, he will be extremely powerful after he becomes a god.

Wei Tianchen said that he was the same because he also wanted to solve the problem of desolation.

But his method is not as arrogant as Guluohe's.

So he thought that Guluo River would not succeed, but he himself had hope of success.

"There are very few people who have achieved the Dao in heaven and earth. This kind of divine realm is called 'True God without Tribulation'." Wei Tianchen looked at the Bamboo Sword Master: "Even if the original self achieves the Dao, there will still be divine tribulations. A free god cannot be free."

"Heaven and earth prove the truth, but there is no disaster or calamity, so he is called a true god."

"Zhu Jian, I don't look down on you."

I mean everyone here is garbage… Zhao Xing added in his mind.

It is obvious that Wei Tianchen looks down on the self's way of attaining godhood.

He wanted to obtain the Wild God Poison in the Seven-Star Cabinet because he wanted to become the 'True God Without Disaster'!
Killing the divine parasites would benefit the universe, and he could become a true god among doctors!

"So, you mean that True God Wujie is stronger than True God Zizai?" asked Master Bamboo Sword.

“No, I’m talking about the way to become a god and the categories of the divine realm, but not the specific strength levels.” Wei Tianchen said.

"In the Five Emperors period, those who had just achieved the Great Dao were not as powerful as a magic weapon. Most of them were 'free gods'. The so-called magic weapons and generals in ancient times were all of this level."

"After the Great Dao is stabilized, if one can become the King of the Great Dao in a certain direction, then he will reach another level. He will be called the Free God King or the Undisaster God King. Unless it is a particularly heaven-defying divine object, whether there is a divine object or not, he can crush the other gods."

"The Five Emperors are above all other gods."

"Each of them is a True God without Tribulation."

Zhao Xing looked at the lonely and desolate hills and said, "You mean, someone in my hometown is trying to become a god?"

Wei Tianchen shook his head again: "With the laws of heaven and earth oppressing us to this extent, there must be a strong person who has proven himself to be a True God without Tribulations, and I'm afraid that a Free God has already appeared."

"In the southeast where the bamboo sword sensed, the power of the sword decreased. There is only one reason for this, and that is that his sword was weakened by the opponent's presence."

Zhao Xing was a little dumbfounded. Which version is this? Why haven't I played it before? Not only is there the realm of the gods of heaven and earth, but also the realm of the gods of freedom?
"Zhao Xing, your Xuanhuang Realm holds a great secret. The Bamboo Sword Master and I know nothing about this place. From now on, we can only rely on you to find a way out."
