The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 562 The Way of Compassion
In the blink of an eye, another fifty years have passed.

Wang Wu successfully raised his resistance to bitter cold to 2000 points. With the added benefit of the third-series Creation Ice Spirit Pill, he can now withstand the penetrating and eroding effects of level 36 Cangming Cold Qi for at least 50 seconds.

This is a huge step forward, and the best part is that it's so easy.

He must be so happy he doesn't want to leave. Why would he want to leave?

Every fifty years, the God of Cold would go out to plunder, and Wang Wu would take the opportunity to exploit a bug, gaining about 1000 points of cold resistance each time.

Although he was always persuaded by that big bug, he just ignored it.

Once his cold resistance reached 4999 points, the 99 Supreme Ultimate Cold Energy he gained from exploiting the bug was no longer enough to break through his cold resistance.

At this point, he could withstand the penetrating and eroding effects of the level 36 Cangming Frost for twelve hours.

Even with level 40 Cangming Frost, it can last for more than ten minutes.

"It seems necessary to have a serious talk with that big bug."

This thought flashed through Wang Wu's mind because, based on his past experience in improving his resistance to the three calamities of Yin Fire, Evil Wind, and Yang Thunder, the first 4999 points of resistance to bitter cold were one thing, but exceeding 5000 points was another. And when it reached 6000 points, 7000 points, and all the way to 9000 points, the total amount of Cangming Cold Qi required was absolutely astronomical.

However, before Wang Wu could get a chance to enter the alchemy furnace to negotiate with the giant worm, he was suddenly stopped by a white-haired man one day.

He simply blocked Wang Wu's path.

"Wang Wu, you can stop now! The God of Cold has already reported your actions to the Twelve Celestial Realms. I have been ordered to come and take you back to the Celestial Realms to face your punishment!"

What the hell is that?!
Wang Wu was completely dumbfounded!

When did Han Shen discover him and report him? Isn't Han Shen in cahoots with the Twelve Great Luo Immortals? Yet he still goes out to rob Taiyi True Immortals. Were you all pretending to be blind before?

However, the other party seemed to be a half-step Great Luo as well. Moreover, Wang Wu vaguely recognized him. He seemed to be a powerful figure from the Azure Dragon Clan. Sixty thousand years ago, when the half-step Great Luo from the Xuan Tian Sect was breaking through to Great Luo, he went to watch the ceremony. But at that time, he was still a Taiyi Ninth Rank Azure Dragon.

Unexpectedly, 60,000 years have passed, and he has become a half-step Great Luo Immortal.

"I don't understand what you're talking about. Do you want to fight me to the death?"

Wang Wu asked tentatively, glancing warily around. Over the past few hundred years, he had figured out the basic situation of the Cold God. It would only wake up once every fifty years, and the rest of the time it would transform into the Cangming Clan and enjoy the various aspects of human life in the Cold Realm, while its true form would fall into slumber.

However, it's always good to be safe just in case.

"Hmph! You really are an ancient bear from beyond the heavens! Don't you know that the five realms of Cold Realm, Fire Realm, Wind Realm, Thunder Realm, and Green Wood Realm are all under the jurisdiction and protection of the Twelve Celestial Realms? These five realms are the source of the operation of the twenty-four solar terms and an important force in rebuilding the cultivation world. You acted recklessly in the Cold Realm, illegally mining top-grade Cold Marrow in huge amounts. Your crime is unforgivable. Now, obediently submit to the law and confess your crimes, and there may be a chance for a reduced sentence. Otherwise, do you think I can't take you down?"

The white-haired man sneered, displaying extreme confidence.

The things he said were strange.

Wang Wu looked puzzled, but didn't dwell on the man's confidence. He simply asked, "When did the Five Realms come under the jurisdiction and protection of the Twelve Celestial Realms? I remember that it's only been a little over 50,000 years since the Twelve Great Luo Golden Immortals created the Twelve Celestial Realms. Does this mean that whoever has the bigger fist is right?"

"Otherwise, of course, whoever has the bigger fist is right. Since its establishment, the Twelve Celestial Realms have issued heavenly laws and regulations to bring the Five Realms under their jurisdiction and have made them public for 30,000 years. Anyone who is dissatisfied within 30,000 years can go to the Twelve Celestial Realms to discuss the Dao with the twelve Great Luo Immortals. During this period, why didn't you go to discuss the Dao?"

“You can even go and debate with me now! Defeat me and you can fight your way up to the Twelve Heavens.”

"Wait, I saw it with my own eyes before. This Cold God of the Cold Realm appears once every fifty years. Each time, he plunders millions of living beings to refine the Longevity Elixir. Why do you Twelve Heavens Immortal Realms not care about this matter?"

"Because this is a licensed act!"

"The twenty-four solar terms are the foundation of the only great Dao. The twenty-four solar terms must operate normally. You say that the God of Cold has emerged and is devouring and plundering living beings. Then why don't you say that you went out knowing that the Major Cold and Minor Cold solar terms were coming?"

"The God of Cold appears according to the solar terms, just like a flash flood in the mortal world that swept away dozens of mortals playing in the river. Are you going to blame the flash flood? Shouldn't you blame the government for inaction, and blame yourself for being greedy for fun and lacking awareness of danger?"

"In fact, it's not just the Cold God; the same applies to the other four realms. When the Fire God of the Fire Realm appears, when the Wind God of the Wind Realm appears, when the Thunder God of the Thunder Realm appears, and when the Poison God of the Green Wood Realm appears, those who cannot dodge in time deserve to die! This is also clearly stated in the Heavenly Laws and Rules!"

Grass!
Wang Wu couldn't win the argument.

He then changed his question, "I want to know when Han Shen discovered me?"

"Just a month ago, when you maxed out your cold resistance to the first stage, the God of Cold noticed you. You were too clever for your own good and were too greedy. The God of Cold held back and didn't take action, but reported the matter to the higher authorities, which is why I had to deal with it."

"So now, Wang Wu, do you want to fight me, or obediently come back with me to confess your crimes and accept punishment?"

Wang Wu looked at the white-haired man and suddenly asked, "Are you stalling for time, or do you have other accomplices lying in ambush outside the Cold Realm? Is that why you're spouting such nonsense?"

The white-haired man arrogantly replied, "There's no need for that. I alone am more than capable of capturing you!"

What if I don't believe you?

"Whether you believe it or not is meaningless. With the establishment of the Twelve Celestial Realms, you half-step Great Luo cultivators are all harboring resentment. First there was Tian Shu, and now there is you, Wang Wu. It's all the same. In any case, we have to make a move. So, make your move. The higher-ups are watching."

above?

Wang Wu was startled, but dared not look up. "I don't understand what you're talking about!"

"You don't need to understand, just do it!" The white-haired man said, but he still didn't make the first move.

Wang Wu stared at him in horror, but gradually realized that this was either a case of spending a fortune to buy a horse's bones, or a case of killing the chicken to scare the monkey; he had no choice.

"That's fine!"

Nodding, Wang Wu solemnly clasped his hands in a fist salute, "I, Wang, humbly request your guidance, fellow Daoist!"

Then the white-haired man also solemnly clasped his hands in greeting, "Azure Dragon Clan's White Fish, please!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the white-haired man had already retreated 50,000 miles away. This was hardly an attempt to apprehend a criminal. Even a friendly sparring match wouldn't be this polite. Either the other party had an extremely high chance of winning and was trying to dazzle him with all sorts of overpowered tricks, or Wang Wu could already smell a strong stench of showing off.

However, even so, Wang Wu did not dare to be negligent. He also retreated 50,000 miles, and then with a wave of his hand, the Heaven and Earth Shield appeared tens of thousands of meters above his head.

Almost simultaneously, the white fish threw out a complete Heaven and Earth Tower.

In an instant, a burst of Yin and Yang energy shot out from the Tower of Heaven and Earth, striking Wang Wu's Heaven and Earth Shield.

That was a brilliant move.

This is equivalent to taking the initiative and suppressing Wang Wu in electromagnetic warfare.

This can be considered a mode of confrontation between those who are halfway to becoming the next Ronaldo.

They no longer need to compete to see who has the higher level of Taoist magic and supernatural powers; instead, they directly sever the source of your Taoist magic.

Without the illumination of Yin and Yang energies, if another interference occurs, Wang Wu will suffer the same fate as when he was attacked by the Foremost of the Imperial Observatory and his forbidden techniques were reversed. He will only have his Immortal Body of Creation left, and all other abilities will be gone!
High-level battles are simple yet incredibly powerful.

Unfortunately, today's Wang Wu is no longer the Wang Zhige of the past.

The moment the Yin and Yang energies shot out from the white fish's Heaven and Earth Tower, his fifth-order cat formation was already running at full speed. At this moment, the Heaven and Earth Shield left a phantom image to meet the Yin and Yang energies, but the real body disappeared.

At the same time, Wang Wu instantly appeared behind, to the left, to the right, above, and below the white fish.

All five directions were occupied by Wang Wu, and each of them held a Heaven and Earth Shield.

Aim at Bai Chu's Heaven and Earth Tower, activate Yin and Yang energies, and irradiate it.

He is now extremely skilled at using the Supreme Hair to replace his true body and switching between the two. Most importantly, the Heaven and Earth Shield is now part of Wang Wu's body, so the hair can also evolve along with it.

If you say I'm real, then I am real.

You say I'm fake, but I'm still real.

If you think I'm being deceitful, bluffing, or scheming, I'm sorry, it's all true.

He has that confidence.

However, the white fish remained calm and skillfully manipulated the Heaven and Earth Tower. Yin and Yang energies surged forth and split into five, not only able to meet Wang Wu's Yin and Yang energies but also able to suppress them.

In an instant, it destroyed Wang Wu's five supreme hairs.

However, this resulted in Wang Wu's true form appearing behind Bai Yu, unleashing Cangming Sword Qi that instantly froze Bai Yu, but it was essentially a wasted effort.

"Little Jier!"

The white fish let out a loud shout, and its true form vanished like a bubble. The next second, hundreds of thousands of white fish appeared densely packed in the sky, and none of them were the same.

Some are as tall as mountains, some are majestic and imposing, some are dressed in flowing white robes, some are smiling with flowers in hand, some are glaring angrily, some are gazing into the distance, and some are showing compassion for all living beings.

This is not simply showing off skills, but an extremely profound principle.

mercy!

Like Wang Wu's cunning and Shuang Jun's sincerity, they are both personal paths they have cultivated.

Don't underestimate this seemingly minor path; it is an essential path to cultivate. Even the Great Immortal has his own minor path.

There is no doubt about this.

This also marks the end of the first round of probing between Wang Wu and Bai Yu.

Bai Yu tried to suppress Wang Wu's Heaven and Earth Shield with his Heaven and Earth Tower, but he couldn't. Wang Wu's reaction was too fast, so although Bai Yu's Yin and Yang energies were powerful, they were useless.

If it cannot be illuminated, then there is no point in destroying it from the source of the Great Dao and using forbidden techniques to reduce its dimensionality.

So the white fish immediately decided to start from a side path.
