Tao and Heaven

Chapter 189: If you don’t cultivate yourself as a human being, you will become a demon even if you become an immortal

Jun Yan's spiritual thoughts swept through the military camp, and he felt the entire military formation. In his eyes, the entire army was a giant.

Each soldier was entangled in strands of fine threads, forming a huge formation. The spirits and energy of tens of thousands of strong mortals gathered together to form a Dharma image of at least the seventh-seventh-Daoji level.

This kind of military force can greatly enhance Wen Renwu's strength if he controls it.

"The so-called military force is a special formation. Wen Renwu is at the fourth level of the eighth level of the Dao foundation. No, it has become the fifth level of perfection, but all together it is only two levels higher than you."

Jun Yan turned around and asked, "How do you plan to fight? Do you want me to break his army first? If the blood and qi of these tens of thousands of mortals are trained into blood demon beads, I can temporarily have the power comparable to the immortal sword in your hand, of course, it is only the killing power."

The magical sword has unique properties and can cut through anything, so it can control the evil within one's body.

The tens of thousands of people under Wen Renwu have plenty of energy and blood, making them very suitable for blood sacrifice.

Chi Yuzi sent a telepathic message, and said in a cold tone: "Don't let this evil and crooked path lead the world astray."

"There is no good or bad in the law. We, the demons, live on the border of the human race. If we don't use everything to the fullest, how can we fight against those monsters?" Jun Yan refuted: "On the contrary, you, the righteous people, live in the interior and sleep soundly, looking like you are eating meat, which makes people sick."

Hearing this, Gu Wen turned his head and cast a questioning look at Ao Tang, who replied: "There is no question of who is outside and who is inside in the fight between the three religions of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon and the demon race. It's just that most of the time, local conflicts are resisted or provoked by the demons. You have indeed made contributions, but they have also taken a lot of benefits."

"Since Qingcang, there have actually been no large-scale conflicts between humans and demons. At most, they would only affect an area of ​​10,000 miles, but rarely 100,000 miles."

Ten thousand miles is not big, only one hundred thousand miles is big?
It was hard for Gu Wen to imagine how big the war in the cultivation world was.

Chi Yuzi and Jun Yan finished arguing on the side. Jun Yan didn't want to waste his time, so he said, "Hong Chen, do you want to keep it simple or make trouble for yourself? Let me use some tricks. I can blow up the entire military camp, and these mortals will become a weapon to kill Wen Renwu."

“Although Wen Renwu is not strong, he is like a formation master who has set up a formation. Smart people will not force their way in.”

Instead of persuading Akabane, it is better to let Gu Wen make the decision, as he is the same type of person as me.

Gu Wen asked: "How much will Wen Renwu's strength increase by relying on the military formation?"

"The first level, but it's just a rough quantification. You can't guarantee that he will be an ordinary True Lord, or a genius of the demon race." Jun Yan replied: "Formation has always been about using a little force to achieve a great result."

An ant three levels higher than me?
If Wen Renwu was really a peerless genius comparable to the Three Pure Ones, then how could he have only eighty-five Taoist foundations, and even only the fourth level of perfection when they first met?

There are nine levels of Tao foundation, and only perfection is higher. The same Tao foundation can never be as good as perfection.

Gu Wen's eyes were determined, and he said, "Even if he is three levels higher than me, he may not be able to defeat me."

In the past, I fought with Wenren just to survive, but I wonder what the situation is like after several months.

Jun Yan frowned slightly. He felt that Gu Wen had changed a lot and was more aggressive than before.

He used to be in tune with himself, doing things flawlessly, striving for perfection, and would never do anything out of impulse.

But since he said so, Jun Yan could only shut up and watch. It would be best if Gu Wen could really challenge a "formation master" by surpassing the third level. If he failed, there would be a goddess to cover him, or Chi Yuzi could save the situation.

hum!
His ears rang slightly and blood flowed out of them. Jun Yan wiped the blood and said solemnly: "My divine consciousness has been cut off. The one who can detect my divine consciousness and take countermeasures is at least a semi-immortal."

Gu Wen guessed, "Is Emperor Daojun in there?"

Emperor Daojun is equivalent to the head of the Three Pure Ones Taoist sect, and they almost all have the strength of a semi-immortal. Emperor Daojun relies on the dragon veins and has a deeper foundation in the land of immortality, which is why the Taoist sect needed to cooperate with him at the beginning.

"This saves a lot of trouble."

Yu Hua's eyes turned slightly cold, and he became more interested. His powerful spiritual power rushed into the military camp like a mad dragon, stirring up a strong wind that made the tent sway.

Emperor Daojun built countless Taoist palaces in Bianjing to form a formation. The dragon veins covered hundreds of miles, and it was not easy to get rid of them. If Yu Hua took action by force, he could not guarantee that he would have enough energy to deal with others after killing people.

If Emperor Daojun doesn't take the initiative to leave Bianjing, Yu Hua won't touch him. It's better to wait for the master to be resurrected, and everything will be settled.

On the contrary, outside of Bian Jing, he would at most be a half-immortal.

Gu Wen stepped into the air and walked towards the military camp step by step with a sword in hand, dust blowing past his feet.
-

In the military camp, the commander's tent.

Wen Renwu closed his eyes to rest, when suddenly a breeze blew. He opened his eyes and saw an old Taoist standing in the tent, touching the precious scales on the armor stand.

He quickly stood up, bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

"You have been involved in the plot. The original intention of the imperial edict was to tell you not to enter Nanshui and to move your troops back to the court directly."

The direct words of Emperor Daojun shocked Wen Renwu's eyes. Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, and he made a quick decision and said, "Minister, leave now."

Emperor Daojun shook his head and said, "You can't leave. The goddess and her group have arrived in front of your formation. You are going to die."

Just a few words were spoken, like thousands of mountains pressing down on me.

Wen Renwu's rough temples were wet with sweat, his breathing became heavy, and then gradually calmed down.

His eyes were calm, his mood was calm, and he said frankly: "I have guessed it since I received the imperial edict, but I didn't want to miss the opportunity. Now that I have missed it, I will die. Your Majesty's projection here should not be the last time to see me, right?"

"You are very free and easy, which means that even a half-immortal cannot reach you."

Emperor Daojun's voice was indifferent, as if he was looking at an ant.

He never thought that being free and easy was a quality worthy of praise. The so-called free and easy was nothing more than a dead heart caused by helplessness, a mediocre person who was unable to reach transcendence and therefore sought death.

All things will eventually die, and the only solution is transcendence.

Semi-immortals are afraid of death because they have the opportunity to become immortals, because they can get a glimpse of the beauty of becoming immortals. It is normal for semi-immortals to fear death because of their lifespan.

This is not a shame. Instead, he feels that it is a realm that mediocre people cannot comprehend.

"I am here to save you. If you die, Daqian will be in complete chaos. You cannot die yet."

Wen Ren Wudao said, "Your Majesty, can you defeat the goddess? Or is Your Majesty sure that you can send me away?"

"No, the goddess's energy is locked here, and even my divine consciousness cannot escape." Emperor Daojun shook his head and said, "I will negotiate, do my best, and leave the rest to fate."

Wen Renwu wanted to laugh, but he was already used to it.

Since the emergence of the immortality elixir, he has become somewhat numb to the fate of various gods and mighty beings. It is not surprising that the Daojun Emperor, who was like a god in the past, was suppressed like this. On the contrary, if he really had that ability, there would not be so many things happening now.

He said, "It doesn't matter if the goddess kills me or any other genius, I just want to know who is stronger, me or Gu Wen? If he is stronger, then it is worth dying today. If he is weak, then I will just take away his spirit."

Emperor Daojun said: "You can't defeat him. Even if he attacks you alone, you will have no chance of survival."

"I can't beat him?" Wen Renwu frowned, his tiger eyes full of disbelief, "He left Bian Jing only about four months ago, and the last news I heard was a month and a half ago. I calculated that he has a 55th Dao foundation, so what if he has a 6th Dao foundation?"

"He has made it to the Heavenly Ranking, ninth on the Heavenly Ranking."

Emperor Daojun's words silenced Wen Renwu.

Only immortals can ascend to the Heavenly Ranking, so Yu Hua, the leader of the Heavenly Ranking, is so feared. This is no longer a realm that the geniuses can step into, and many founders of sects are suppressed by Yu Hua.

After a long time, suddenly a gust of wind blew into Lang Lang's voice.

"General, I am here again after several months to ask for your advice."

Suddenly, the wind howled, the military flags fluttered, and a murderous atmosphere spread.

His heart was beating very fast, then calmed down in an instant. Wen Renwu waved his arm and the precious scales turned into flowing light and covered his body. He held the precious halberd in his hand and stretched his body like a tiger.

"A coward who wishes to die must eventually die. Today I want to test this immortal talent to see if one year can equal thousands of years of accumulation for me."

Emperor Daojun took out a pill, handed it to Wen Renwu, and said, "This pill can temporarily raise you to a higher level and complete the sixth level of Dao foundation."

"Does it make sense? If I use some tricks, the goddess can also do something. Now that the youngsters come to ask for advice, why are you trying to pat your head on the back?"

"It is very important to me. I must break Gu Wen's invincible spirit. His momentum is already established. He will soar into the sky like a real dragon. If I don't suppress him, even I won't be able to stop him in the future."

The two looked at each other, and for the first time in thousands of years, they had a disagreement.

Emperor Daojun's calm eyes showed a hint of surprise. Wen Renwu, who was two times older than him, knelt down slowly, knocked his forehead to the ground, and uttered the name that he had not uttered for a long time.

"Master, please allow me to be willful for once."

There are four heroes in the golden generation. In addition to Yunmiao, Huayang, Xuan Wufeng and other top sects, there is another one who climbed up from a small sect. The sect that entered the immortal world sold its wealth and Lingshan Mountain to barely raise enough money for the ticket.

The Heavenly Lord, the Demon Saint can project the Immortal Land, the Half-Immortal can enter and exit the Immortal Land at will, and the rest need to pay a huge price from the Two Realms City.

The place where immortals are born is not a place they can set foot on.

That year, a poor genius who didn’t even have a guardian entered the land of immortals, and eventually a celestial master emerged.

His name was Zhao Sanming, and the sect he founded was the Hunyuan Sect, which was ranked third among the military sects and was famous for its military might.

Many immortal sects had discussed the idea of ​​unifying the hundreds of millions of mortals at the innermost part of the human race and managing them in a unified way. This would avoid the conflict between the time concepts of cultivators and mortals, and the problem of low administrative efficiency in many city lord mansions.

This way, a problem will not take decades to be solved, and the power of incense and wishes can be effectively utilized.

Their Hunyuan Sect was undoubtedly the most suitable one, and then Zhao Sanming deceived many immortal sects and brought the elite of Hunyuan Sect into the land of immortality, thus Daqian came into being.

He then used secret methods to survive the 500 years in the land of immortality and returned to the throne, using the dynasty as a furnace and the people as firewood to refine the elixir.

Wenren Wu was the direct disciple of Emperor Daojun and the only one left. The others all died in battle.

"I have devoted myself to the cause for hundreds of years. Today it is my turn. I only want to die in battle with honor."

"He wields a magical sword, and you have no weapon that can match it, so you have to resort to medicine."

Emperor Daojun leaned over to persuade him, his voice slowed down slightly, as if he had found a bit of humanity.

Wen Renwu retorted, "Not everyone can hold the Immortal Sword. The fact that he can hold the Immortal Sword in battle is his ability. Just like a disciple with the blessing of military power, with 36,000 brave soldiers as the small Zhoutian and 10,000 as the big Zhoutian, he can shake the Heavenly Venerable."

The magic sword and military power are essentially a matter of one's own ability. There is no magic weapon in the world that everyone can obtain.

The next moment, a hand suddenly grabbed Wen Renwu's neck, and an incomparable force lifted him up and sealed his dantian, making it impossible for his magic power to function.

Everything happened so suddenly that Wen Renwu could hardly react, and he never tried to deal with Emperor Daojun.

"Master?"

Wen Renwu squeezed out a sound from between his teeth and looked at the old Taoist in front of him in disbelief.

My own master has become extremely unfamiliar.

"But if you don't interrupt his momentum, it will hinder my becoming an immortal."

Emperor Daojun's voice was as cold as frost and snow. He stuffed the pill into Wenren Wu's mouth and controlled him to refine it.

He seemed crazy, yet he didn't seem to have any emotional fluctuations. In his eyes, there was only the most extreme desire to seek the truth and the thought of transcendence!

He is the one who seeks the truth, and Wen Renwu is just a mediocre person who cannot become an immortal!

"Heavenly Ranking can lead to immortality. His talent will make him the second Qingcang. I will eventually become an immortal. If I cannot eliminate him, then transcendence will be useless."

Immortals can also die, as Immortal Qingcang has proved.
-

Outside the military camp.

Many soldiers were facing a powerful enemy. The armored soldiers guarding the gate held shields and spears, but no one dared to move forward.

The affairs of immortals are no longer a secret. The battles between powerful beings and the invasion of demons are all known to mortals, but life still goes on. Mortals pick up elixirs and swallow them. Without a foundation in Taoism, they cannot refine the medicinal properties and can only excrete them directly.

And Gu Wen and the others recognized him because he had been killing monsters.

He was dressed in black, holding a sword, killing monsters. He was the only one in the entire Nanshui who killed monsters so recklessly.

Thanks to the propaganda of the Nanchun Army, Gu Wen's name became widely known, and rumors of the emperor's succession to the throne in Bian Jing also spread.

Some people say he is a saint who has come to the world, the true emperor, but in Nanshui, the more popular name is the sword immortal. It is a simple and unpretentious name, but it is not wrong.

"All troops, march out of the tents and form up!"

A deep voice was heard, and a gleam of enlightenment flashed in the eyes of tens of thousands of soldiers, and there was no longer any fear.

Mechanically, efficiently and accurately arrange the square arrays.

But they just stood in the military camp and did not step out of the camp. The military force did not require them to actually come out. In the past, the two armies' united efforts were only a very shallow use.

In the world of cultivation, military formations do not use mortals as soldiers. Without exception, they all require cultivators, and most of them are replaced by puppets.

A nine-foot-tall giant figure walked out of the military camp, clad in heavy armor, and every step he took seemed extremely heavy.

Wen Renwu exhaled hot air, his aura continued to rise, and had reached the level of eighty-six Dao foundations.

He held his weapon in his hands and said in a voice as loud as a bell, "Wen Renwu, today I will test your power as the ninth on the Heavenly Ranking!"

"Please don't hold back, General." Gu Wen cupped his hands, raised his eyes and mouth, and said loudly, "He will die."

As the voice fell, there were two loud bangs on the ground, and the two people raised a wave of dust.

when!
The Zhanxia Sword and the Heavy Halberd collided, and the dull sound of the collision turned into sound waves, spreading over an area of ​​ten thousand meters.

Then, the battlefield was filled with colorful lights, and swords and spears seemed to collide thousands of times in an instant. With the last loud noise, the land they were standing on sank by a radius of 100 meters, as if it had been stepped on by a giant.

The two men separated, Gu Wen took a step back, and Wen Renwu took three steps back.

He looked at the young man in front of him, stunned, surprised, and unbelievable. He actually became as good as himself in just a few months.

All the surprise and shock finally turned into a hearty laugh: "When a man has been away for three days, he should be looked at with new eyes, and you should be completely transformed."

Gu Wen swung the sword slightly and said, "It seems that the general did not use his full strength."

"I just took a pill and forced a breakthrough."

Wen Renwu clenched his fist and beat his chest, saying frankly: "But today, I will use the power of eighty-five Dao bases!"
