Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 266: Cultivation surges, authority in a world

Auspicious clouds suddenly appeared from the void. Mi Tian sneered when he saw this scene:

“Haha, a mere Divine Transformation cultivator actually dares to take the initiative to refine this stele.”

There were bursts of laughter, but no one responded.

"I'm afraid it's difficult for you to get away from the spirit monument now, right?"

Wei Zhong was placed in the void. After hearing these words, he glanced at the big gold lying on the spirit stele and spread his hands.

The auspicious clouds from the outside world gathered automatically and condensed into a large face, which was exactly the face of Wei Zhong:

"What the senior said is true. Refining this stele is indeed a huge burden for me, but there are also many benefits. For example, the rapid increase in cultivation is really addictive..."

While he was speaking, Chen Ronglan and the others had already taken the opportunity to retreat. Seeing the scene behind them, they looked puzzled. They asked:
"Does Brother Chen know what happened?"

Chen Ronglan nodded and told some stories about the spirit tablet and Wei Zhong.

The rest of the gods all had expressions of disbelief, except Xie Yuanping, who had a look of amazement in his eyes.

"Since this person has been favored by the spirit tablet, could it be that the strange vision of thousands of miles away?"

There was no need to answer, as everyone had the answer in their hearts. They turned around to look at the big face of the cloud in the sky, and their hearts could not calm down for a long time.

Guan Shi did not feel much about all this, but instead associated it with the White Jade Lotus, a treasure of fortune nurtured in his own temple.

"Could it be?"

Then he suppressed this thought deep in his heart.

'We are weak, so we should not be held accountable.'

The few of them left Yunzhou safely, crossed the natural barrier of the void above the Wanshou Mountains, and arrived at the border of Fengzhou.

Mitian watched all this happen, but had no intention of stopping it. Instead, he drove the demons under his command to occupy the two realms of Yunzhou and Western Desert, and then advanced towards the remaining human territories in an orderly manner.

He looked at the clouds in the sky and said:
"What do you think of my proposal? I will help you get rid of the spirit tablet, and you will hand the spirit tablet over to me.

"With your cultivation level, you won't be able to regain your freedom for at least a thousand years, no, ten thousand years.

“The maximum life span of a Spiritual Transformation is only three thousand years. Even if you have the possibility to step into the Void Refining stage by using the power of the Spiritual Stele, your life span will not last beyond this period.

"Such an opportunity can even be described as a trap..."

Wei Zhong shook his head:
"You are wrong, Daoist Mitian. In this world, cultivators who have reached the state of spiritual enlightenment are immortals on earth. If I could really enter the state of spiritual enlightenment, what would I be dissatisfied with?
"As for entering the upper realm and pursuing higher cultivation, it is not a choice that everyone would make. In my opinion, being a 'local rich man' in this human world is also very good."

"Humph!"

Mi Tian was particularly disdainful of Wei Zhong's words.

“Senior Mitian, please retreat. Since I have refined this stele, there is no reason for me to let it be swallowed up by the demon world…”

"Why bother talking so much? Let's just fight with our fists."

With a slash of the sword, the big face formed by colorful auspicious clouds suddenly broke into two halves. Wei Zhong chuckled and slowly dissipated.

He turned around and stood up from the void, looking at Da Jin beside him, stroking his chin:

"It is really not easy to refine this spiritual tablet. If it was really me who did it, I have no idea whether I can stay awake at this moment."

Just as Chen Ronglan and Mitian said, the pressure of a world is far beyond what a Divine Transformation cultivator can bear.

Even Da Jin, who had a very high status, fell into a deep sleep at the beginning of refining.

The energy of luck in the body is gathering and is in a process of madness.

As its master, Wei Zhong also gained a lot of benefits.

Sitting in this void space, Wei Zhong was bypassed by spatial turbulence and spatial cracks, as if an invisible giant hand was protecting him.

At the same time, Wei Zhong just raised his hand slightly to activate the blocking force of this space and prevent others from entering.

In addition, in the outside world, there are means formed by the condensation of auspicious clouds of luck, which are enough to withstand the attack of falling stars from the sky.

And through the auspicious clouds, he transformed himself into a substitute for his own will and communicated with the outside world...

And so on. These are the powers that Wei Zhong discovered after Da Jin started to refine the spirit tablet.

The master's master is also a master. This layer of separation did not bring a huge burden to Wei Zhong as the two monks who descended to the world had imagined.

Instead, the benefits were divided between Da Jin and Wei Zhong. Da Jin was responsible for sleeping and absorbing the power of luck to grow, while Wei Zhong, who was clear-minded, exercised the authority.

"These are all external forces. This rapidly growing cultivation is the fundamental!"

Without taking any spiritual elixir for cultivation, Wei Zhong could feel the countless spiritual energy in this empty space rushing into his body.

At the beginning of refining the spirit tablet, the sudden surge of spiritual energy and luck even raised Wei Zhong's cultivation to a small level.

It slowly slowed down later, but it also steadily increased at an unprecedented rate.

Look at the panel intently:

[Cultivation: Early stage of Spiritualization (second level) 7%]

“If this continues, it won’t be long before I can enter the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm and deal with Mitian.

"No, it's still not right. It's best to wait until the late stage of the Spiritualization before thinking of a solution. In addition, we need to refine matching magic tools to assist in combat power. The physical cultivation realm cannot be left behind either...

"I can certainly afford it, but I'm not sure about the monks in this world."

Holding his forehead with one hand, Wei Zhong looked towards Fengzhou.

The human monks who evacuated here have established new strongholds and defensive formations.

Taking advantage of the natural barrier above the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, they tried to keep the demons out.

Most demons are indeed blocked by this, but for the fifth-level demons, this natural barrier is not a dangerous place at all.

The matching human race's divine transformation realm can already initially shatter the void, and these demons are no exception.

For a while, the top leaders of the two sides were entangled in the sky above the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

As a result, most of the dense forests in the mountains below, which had existed for thousands of years, were destroyed, and the monsters and beasts in the mountains had to flee from the mountains and seek other places to live.

In this chaos, the human race's Nascent Soul was too lazy to care about the movements of these monsters. They could only strictly order the fourth-level monsters among them to restrain their subordinates and not to invade the human territory.

Such a generous attitude made the demons surprised and happy, as if they had received an amnesty.

But when the monsters were about to leave, a figure appeared in the air. He was eight feet tall, and his entire body seemed to be made of clouds.

The clothes and face were blurred, but the humans and demons present all felt awe.

"Help me fight the demons. After that, I will grant you a place to live, where you will not be disturbed by other tribes..."

Hearing this, several big demons looked at each other and immediately bowed their heads:

"Thank you for your kindness, senior!"

"Brother Daoist Wei, this action contradicts the original intention of my ancestors."

Wei Zhong's illusory figure appeared beside everyone:

"Why not? Over the past ten thousand years, these monsters have been assimilated into our world. Their blood and roots are all from our human world. If they were placed in the monster world, they would probably not be able to adapt. So what's wrong with giving them a territory?

"Besides, isn't Mitian an ancestor of our human race? Now he has forced us into a dead end, showing no mercy at all."

Everyone was silent for a while before someone changed the subject:

"Fellow Daoist Wei has now refined the Taihua Spiritual Stele and has great magical power. Do you have any way to deal with Mitian?"

Wei Zhong shook his head:
"Can't beat it."

Such a straightforward answer made all the cultivators speechless. "Don't forget, everyone, I have just started refining. It will take a long time before I can fully master the power of the spirit tablet.

"Otherwise, what you see here is not this substitute of luck, but my real body."

"Doesn't this mean that we will always be at a disadvantage in the fight against the demons? The invasion of foreign demons is becoming more and more solid. When will we be able to launch a counterattack?"

Today, both Ximo and Yunzhou have been replaced with a large number of fairy vines, just like a hero cutting off his own arm.

Because of the large number and large area, several green vine seas have matured, involving some low-level and middle-level forces of the demon clan, but it is still very limited.

At least it doesn't have much impact on the level of transformation.

Wei Zhong turned to look at Chen Ronglan:
"What does Daoyou Chen think about this matter?"

The latter shook his head slowly:
"In my opinion, the chances of your victory are slim. This world will most likely fall into Mitian's hands.

"As a great master of the True Demon Realm, even if only one of his clones is here, he is not an easy character to deal with."

Wei Zhong put his hands behind his back:

"How can we know if we don't fight? I hope Fellow Daoist Chen can lend a hand. I am unable to spare any effort right now, and the overall situation on the battlefield here still needs Fellow Daoist to lead the way."

The latter hesitated for a while before speaking:
"Ten years. I will assist you for a maximum of ten years. By then, I must leave the human world and return to the spirit world."

Chen Ronglan had to agree, because when he tried to return to the spiritual world and escape from this mess, he found that the entire human world had been blocked.

You can't go out, and you can't come in again.

Now that the person who possesses such ability is right in front of him, how could he not understand that this is Wei Zhong's conspiracy.

"make a deal!"

Wei Zhong raised his palm and pointed it towards the sky, and two jade-colored lotus flowers fell down.

This is the replica of the Jade Lotus of Fortune that Wei Zhong condensed using his own authority. Anyone holding the jade lotus can be blessed by the fortune of this world.

It is beneficial both in practice and in fighting.

When Guan Shi saw the jade lotus that looked similar to him, he immediately realized that his guess had come true.

He had no intention of getting involved, but just lowered his head and said nothing.

"This item can provide assistance to the two Taoist friends. I hope that the two of you can work together to stop the demons from entering and fight for the survival of billions of lives in our human world."

One on the left and one on the right flew into the hands of Chen Ronglan and Lin Yun.

Holding the object in his hand, Chen Ronglan sighed in his heart, and suddenly heard Wei Zhongyan say:
"Fellow Daoist Chen Gong has been communicating with the upper realms for many years without success, so why not join the battle as well?"

"Yes!"

Just as he was about to leave, he saw that Xie Yuanping was quite curious about the jade lotus in Lin Yun's hand.

After hesitating, he condensed two slightly smaller jade lotuses and handed them to him and the Fairy Yihua.

"With the blessing of the good fortune of this world, I hope that the two Taoist friends can break through the late stage of the transformation of the spirit."

"Thank you, fellow Taoist!"

Wei Zhong nodded, rolled up his sleeves, and brushed towards the Wanshou Mountains not far away. The mountains stretched and expanded.

At the same time, thick fog rose from the mountains.

Sparse space cracks were scattered throughout the area. Wei Zhong extended the range of space fragmentation, making the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range a real Jedi.

Any living thing that passes through it will be harmed.

The offensive momentum of the demons will also be affected.

He bowed to everyone:

"Then I'll leave it to you!"

Then the figure disappeared and faded into nothingness.

The four people held the jade lotus in their hands with different expressions. Not long after, a drizzle suddenly fell from the sky, watering the world.

Twisting the water droplets in his hand, he heard the words of the monk below:

"Spiritual rain, spiritual rain, it is raindrops formed by the condensation of spiritual energy!"

After a spiritual rain, everyone discovered that the concentration of spiritual energy in Fengzhou had increased a lot. The top fourth-level territories of several major sects directly broke through to the fifth level, and other spiritual places also had at least a small stage of improvement.

"Moving mountains and filling seas, descending spirits and raising meridians, Fellow Daoist Wei's current abilities are indeed beyond the reach of the likes of us."

In the void, Wei Zhong stopped what he was doing, and there was obvious fatigue in his eyes.

“After all, there is still a layer of separation. The use of this luck is limited and it is far from being able to transform an entire world.

“At most, there will be limited changes.

"But it is enough. These reinforcements are enough to support the monks in the human world for several years and resist the offensive of the demons, buying me some time."

Strands of spiritual energy emerged from the void and rushed into Wei Zhong's body.

Sit cross-legged and close your eyes.

Wei Zhong practiced the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art", and the hair-like spiritual power immediately became as thick as a little finger, surrounding Wei Zhong's body, as if he was in a storm of spiritual energy.

After several years, Wei Zhong's whole body trembled, and the robe on his body shattered into pieces.

Thunder appeared in the void above his head, enveloping Wei Zhong. After a while, Wei Zhong's figure emerged, with a robe made of lightning draped over his body. His eyes opened, and two beams of lightning appeared, flying for several miles.

He clenched his right fist, and silver lightning and black cracks emanated from it, demonstrating an unparalleled sense of power.

[Seven Apertures Thunder Power·Early Stage 1 (%)]

The physical cultivation technique was not unexpectedly easy to break through. At this moment, Wei Zhong could be called a true fifth-level practitioner of both physical and magical skills.

He looked at the panel again:

[Cultivation: Mid-stage Spiritualization, Level 24 (%)]

His spiritual cultivation also improved rapidly. In just a few years, he advanced two levels and entered the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"If we continue like this, within ten years we will be able to enter the later stage and have the confidence to deal with Mitian."

While he was thinking, Wei Zhong was startled by a noise. Looking up, he saw a space storm raging through the void.

Murmured:
"This Mitian is also very smart. He knew that I was accumulating strength, so he directly handed over the entire invasion to his demon subordinates. He ran to this void alone to look for my trace.

"But this world is my territory. If I let you find it so easily, wouldn't it make me look like a waste?"

He kicked the big gold lying on the spirit tablet:

"Let's go, move!"

The two of them, along with the black stone tablet, transformed into a ray of spiritual light and kept escaping through the void until they fell into the human world, then explored underground and went deep into the center of the earth in this world.

After initially refining the spirit tablet, Dajin gained the ability to move the spirit tablet.

"Even if Mitian searches the entire outer void, he can't find any trace of us."

With a light laugh, Wei Zhong slowly closed his eyes...

In the endless void, Mitian looked down at the black box in his hand. The light spots on it flickered irregularly, as if they had lost their direction.

"We can't find that kid. If we keep delaying like this, our chances of winning will become increasingly slim. Do we really have to summon our true self?"
