The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 226 Evil
Li Yan continued to practice diligently in the Observatory.

The powerful men of Da Xia followed Xia Yu to the Southern Region to expel and kill the remaining high-level monsters in the Southern Region.

Eventually, he pacified several demon kingdoms among the thirteen kingdoms in the southern region and rescued the human race under the rule of the demon kingdoms.

Although some high-level monsters escaped, they can only hide and survive now.

As for the human kingdoms in the Southern Region, after learning the news that the Demon God had fallen at the hands of the Ninth Prince of Daxia, they had no choice but to submit.

Even the demon god can be killed, and Li Yan's strength has been recognized as the best in the world.

Since Daxia has already produced the strongest man in the world, he is coming with the momentum to kill the demon god.

How could they dare not submit under such power?

……

Yuehua Academy.

On the day when the demon god fell.

Chen Yan felt that the confusion in his heart suddenly faded away, and his mind became clear.

His understanding of the righteous energy in his body reached a whole new level.

"The heaven and earth are righteous, and they are mixed and endowed with fluid shapes. Below are the rivers and mountains, and above are the sun and stars. To people, it is said to be vast, and it is as abundant as the sky."

In an instant, the righteous energy between heaven and earth rushed into Chen Yan's body.

Chen Yan's figure was lifted up by a stream of clear air and went straight into the sky.

He was originally an ordinary mortal, but at this moment he had infinite power in his heart.

"I am good at cultivating my awe-inspiring spirit!"

Chen Yan's eyes were cold. He already understood that he was standing on the shoulders of countless sages and carrying the destiny of literature and Taoism. Now he had become a saint and the first Confucian and Taoist saint in this world.

Confucianism and Taoism emerged from the human way and represent the wisdom and order of the human race. As the history of human culture and Taoism continues to develop, their foundation becomes increasingly profound.

Finally, in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, Daxia sacrificed the destiny of the dynasty and gave birth to a righteous spirit.

Chen Yan was well-versed in classics and had a deep understanding of the great righteousness that enabled him to become a saint, but he did not do this on his own.

It was because of the countless classic works of sages that explained the truth to him that he had the foundation to become the first saint of Confucianism and Taoism.

With Chen Yan's becoming a saint, Confucianism and Taoism were officially established.

Although it was already night, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the sky. A bright light appeared and the entire territory of Daxia was as bright as day.

The sky is full of dark clouds.

At this moment, everyone in Daxia felt a sense of peace in their hearts.

The Confucian scholar from Daxia felt something even more, as he felt an inexplicable power suddenly appearing in his body.

Under the influence of this inexplicable force, their bodies became extremely strong.

Li Yan in the Observatory looked up, his gaze piercing through the void and falling on Chen Yan who was above the sky.

Chen Yan sensed Li Yan's gaze and bowed in Li Yan's direction.

"Thank you, Ninth Prince, for killing the demon god and protecting the imperial city."

He already knew that the reason why Lu Liang was so anxious was because he wanted him to comprehend the righteous energy as soon as possible so that he could resist the demon god.

It’s just that he had been feeling confused and lost in his heart for some time, and was stuck at the last step, unable to comprehend it.

Although he tried his best to comprehend, he could not solve the confusion.

It was not until shortly after the fall of the Demon God that he unravelled the confusion in his heart, fully comprehended the great righteousness, and achieved sainthood.

Therefore, he was full of respect for Li Yan.

Li Yan smiled at Chen Yan and said, "Congratulations, Confucian Saint."

He had heard from Lu Liang that this Confucian sage Chen Yan was a man who devoted his life to the Great Xia human race and made immortal contributions.

Therefore, I already had some good feelings towards Chen Yan, so I sent him congratulations.

At present, all the high-level warriors of Da Xia have gone to the Southern Region, so even though Chen Yan has become a saint, not many people in Da Xia know about it.

They believed that the strange phenomenon in the sky was a sign from heaven that Daxia would rise.

Only Lu Liang understood what was going on after receiving this news.

But he didn't take it seriously at the moment.

No matter when Chen Yan became a saint, it actually doesn’t matter.

Because with Li Yan's strength, he is destined to overcome future disasters easily.

Even if Chen Yan is not here, Li Yan alone can protect the peace of this world.

……

Although few people knew about the new birth of Confucianism and Taoism at the beginning.

But as more and more ordinary Confucian scholars use their righteous spirit to exert extraordinary power.

It also attracted the attention of practitioners of both martial arts and sorcery.

Confucian sages manipulate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with their righteous spirit and can use techniques similar to those of sorcerers.

This is different from the minor techniques of witchcraft. It seems to contain the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, and is like a broad road with a bright future.

When the powerful men of Da Xia returned triumphantly from the Southern Region, Xia Yu learned from Li Yan that Da Xia had given birth to a first-class Confucian saint.

Naturally, he was overjoyed at this, so he asked Emperor Xia to confer upon the Confucian sage Chen Yan the title of Grand Master of Great Xia and to establish the Qishan Academy for him.

Chen Yan gladly accepted this, as teaching Confucianism and Taoism was what he pursued.

With the support of the Great Xia Dynasty, he was like a fish in water. He taught the essence of Confucianism and Taoism at the Qishan Academy and called on Confucian scholars from all over the world to come and study.

From then on, Confucianism and Taoism began to truly become famous throughout the world.

All the disciples that Chen Yan taught at the beginning have made great progress in Confucianism.

With them going down the mountain to spread the message, soon more and more Confucian scholars entered the Qishan Academy.

There is a great scholar who is nearly 70 years old. After being guided by Chen Yan, his knowledge of Confucianism and Taoism has made rapid progress.

Although Confucianism and Taoism possess extraordinary powers and can lead to extremely rapid progress, they do not increase lifespan at all.

At best, it can make them live a hundred years without illness or disaster.

Even the Confucian sage Chen Yan is like this.

After a hundred years, dust will still return to dust.

However, there are already quite a few Confucian scholars in the world. They do not seek immortality, so being able to live to old age without illness or disaster is already very good.

What's more, he can possess extraordinary powers like sorcerers and warriors.

Therefore, the number of Confucian practitioners in the world soon reached a terrifying level.

However, great Confucian scholars are rare after all, and it is not easy for Confucian practitioners to advance given their limited lifespans.

Therefore, the vast majority of Confucian practitioners are only at the eighth or ninth stage.

They also need to continue to study and read classics, summarize the truth, and improve themselves in order to continue to advance in rank.

After the news spread that Li Yan killed the demon god, the thirteen countries in the Southern Region surrendered to him, the countries in the Northern and Western Regions.

They quickly sent people to Daxia to investigate the truth of the matter.

After discovering that it was actually true, they also chose to submit to Daxia, becoming a vassal state of Daxia and paying tribute to Daxia every year.

After all, even the Demon God died in Da Xia, so how could they be so ignorant as to choose to be the enemy of Da Xia?

From then on, the human race was unified.

The world ushered in long-awaited peace.

Time flies, and more than eighty years have passed in a flash.

“Hehehe… The vitality of this world is really good. There is so much blood food, which is just right for our tribe to survive!”

The sky not far from Xiaoshan Pass.

Dozens of cracks tens of feet long suddenly appeared and then slowly opened.

Then, a group of thin, dark-skinned demons with a pair of black wings on their backs, like devils from outer space, slowly emerged from the cracks.

The aura of each of these evil demons is extremely powerful.

Even the weakest evil demon is equivalent to the fifth level.

Now, they were pouring out from the cracks continuously, as if they were endless. In just a quarter of an hour, thousands of demons from outer space had already poured out from the cracks.

Their eyes were red as they felt the spiritual energy and vitality contained in this world, their eyes full of greed.

Just now.

On the city wall of Xiaoshan Pass, Lu Liang, wearing golden armor, and more than twenty second-rank warriors looked at the group of evil demons.

"I never thought that there would be evil demons that dare to invade our Great Xia territory."

Xia Yu sneered, and the other strong men also treated these evil demons like pigs and sheep, with murderous intent in their eyes.

However, the madness and bloody aura of these evil demons, as well as the disgust they felt deep in their hearts, were telling them that these evil demons were not good people, but invaders who needed to be killed.

"The Ninth Prince is indeed a man of great foresight. He was able to predict that the evil demon would come to the world at this time. He asked us to surround and kill them here. Otherwise, if they scatter, it will be troublesome. We don't know if they have any way to hide their aura."

A second-rank expert started to flatter.

Many of them were second-rank warriors from the vassal states of Da Xia, who were summoned by the Ninth Prince to come and kill the evil demons from outer space.

Lu Liang's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled and replied: "As a super-powerful person, the Ninth Prince will naturally take everything into account. If the Ninth Prince had not been in seclusion at this moment, he would be able to kill these evil demons with a wave of his hand."

His appearance has become much more mature than it was more than eighty years ago, and his realm and strength have also improved rapidly during this period.

Now he has become a peerless martial saint in the second-grade immortal realm, and he is only a few years away from the first-grade level.

This was a realm he had never reached in his previous life.

In his previous life, evil demons from outer space were descended upon the world. Although he had participated in the battle, he did not discover them in time, and these evil demons had already devoured many people.

Even Chen Yan was unable to deal with the first-grade evil demons who were the ancestors of those evil demons from outer space at that time, and in the end he could only perish together with these evil demons from outer space.

As a man of foresight in this world, he certainly does not want to be passive.

Before Li Yan went into seclusion, he was allowed to call on the strong men of the world in his name to stop the evil demons from outer space.

So after he learned the specific location where the evil demon from outer space was born with the help of Dayan Sect, he summoned all the second-rank strong men in the world and set up an ambush there.

Now the evil demon from outer space has indeed been captured here.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, dozens of light beams shot up into the sky and eventually formed a light curtain, trapping all the evil demons inside.

"what happened!?"

These evil demons looked surprised and felt something was wrong in their hearts.

At this moment, countless spells of level three and above appeared and attacked this group of evil demons from outer space.

"what!"

Some evil demons had no time to react before being hit by this magic, and were vaporized and their souls were destroyed on the spot.

Even a demon of the second rank was wounded and terrified after being attacked by such intensive magic.

"There's an ambush!"

They never imagined that they would enter the world they had found with great difficulty.

They were immediately surrounded by the strongest people in this world, and were even ambushed, killing most of their fellow tribesmen at the entrance.

"go!"

Upon seeing this, the powerful warriors at the Xiaoshan Pass immediately soared into the sky and flew towards the evil demons from outer space.

Lu Liang's mind moved, and his body suddenly flew to a second-grade evil demon, slashed with a sword, and cut off its head.

Other powerful men also took action and killed these evil demons.

Lu Liang was very powerful, and the second-grade evil demon only lasted a few strikes before he chopped it down.

Then he rushed towards the other second-grade demons. Once these second-grade demons escaped and devoured flesh and blood, they would have the possibility of being promoted to the first grade. He would never let any of them go.

"Roar!"

Just now.

In the crack, a huge black hand, which was at least ten feet wide, grasped the edge of the crack and reached in.

"It's the first rank! The ancestor of evil demons! Retreat quickly!"

Upon seeing this, Lu Liang shouted loudly and retreated immediately, and other strong men followed suit.

Among these evil demons, only this first-grade evil demon is the most powerful. Even among the first-grade ones, he is considered powerful.

Although there were two second-grade evil demons who were promoted to the first-grade in the previous life, their strength was far less powerful than this first-grade evil demon.

"Ancestor!"

The evil demons from outer space did not chase after it, but looked at the giant hand with awe.

The big hand tore with force, and the space crack became bigger. A huge three-winged evil demon drilled out from the space crack.

"town!"

At the moment when the ancestor of these evil demons from outer space appeared, the figure of a kind-looking white-haired old man appeared in the void.

It was the Confucian sage Chen Yan.

He has a limited lifespan and is now old.

He uttered a word lightly, and an invisible force came out, firmly suppressing the huge evil demon in mid-air.

"seal up!"

"kill!"

As another two words were uttered, the evil demon ancestor who had just appeared in the world suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.

The next moment, he felt his body being torn apart by a powerful force.

In the blink of an eye, all the vitality in his body was taken away, his pupils lost their life force, and he fell towards the ground from mid-air.

A group of powerful men looked at this scene and felt a little awe towards Chen Yan.

Although this Confucian sage is not as powerful as the Ninth Prince, his overall strength is probably second only to the Ninth Prince.

"He died so soon?"

Lu Liang was amazed when he saw this.

In his previous life, this evil demon ancestor committed many evil deeds, and countless powerful people died at his hands.

Chen Yan could only die with him.

But now he was killed so easily by Chen Yan.

But when he thought about it carefully, it didn't seem too strange.

After all, this evil demon ancestor has not yet started to devour blood.

Moreover, the current Chen Yan is no longer the same as in his previous life. He can be said to be the person who is closest to being a super-class person.

Due to Li Yan's existence, the demon god died prematurely.

Not only did the national strength of Daxia not decrease, but it increased by hundreds of times.

Therefore, when Chen Yan first became a saint, his strength was beyond what he remembered from his previous life.

Confucianism and Taoism were born out of the sacrifices for the destiny of Daxia, and are closely related to humanity.

When the demon god fell, humanity flourished.

Because of Li Yan's existence, Daxia became the common ruler of the world and encompassed the destiny of the world.

Chen Yan's potential and strength have also grown extremely rapidly.

It's just that there is no rival now, so it has not been shown.

Now that the evil demon ancestor has appeared, it has given Chen Yan the opportunity to demonstrate his strength.

"pity……"

Lu Liang looked at Chen Yan with complicated eyes.

He will be promoted to the first rank soon, but he may not have the opportunity to fight with Chen Yan by then.

Because Chen Yan's life span was almost over, even if the evil demon had not descended upon the world in his previous life, he would not have lived for too long.

Although the situation is much better now, the issue of lifespan still cannot be resolved.
