Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 134 Lord of Tiannan
"Oh, the three fellow Taoists are here too?"

Just as Wei Wuya, the old demon Hehuan, and Master Zhiyang were preparing to join forces to deal with the ancient demon Blood Flame, a light laugh suddenly rang out.

"Brother Zhao, this is an ancient demon with great strength. Let's quickly join forces to kill it."

When Master Zhiyang saw Zhao Shuang, he immediately shouted.

"Haha! Really? Okay, but could you three fellow Daoists tell me why you're in the Fallen Demon Valley, and what's going on with the Immortal-Exterminating Pearl?"

Zhao Shuang raised his eyes and glanced at the Ancient Demon Blood Flame, chuckled, but his face was full of coldness.

Just now, the ancient demon blood flame killed a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul and devoured the Nascent Soul. That person happened to know about the Immortal-Destroying Pearl.

Therefore, Ancient Demon Blood Flame sent a direct message to him. He also did not expect that Master Zhiyang and the other two would actually obtain the Immortal Destroying Pearl and come to the Demon Valley specifically to kill him.

So, he came out of Lingmiao Garden directly.

As soon as these words were spoken, the three people's faces changed drastically. After looking at each other, they no longer concealed anything.

"Since Brother Zhao already knows about the Immortal-Exterminating Pearl, there's nothing more for the three of us to say. However, this matter has little to do with the sects behind us. After this, Brother Zhao, can you please let them go? This is the token we carry with us. If the three of us perish, we can take it to our respective sects and hand it over to them. They will obey Brother Zhao's orders."

"The three of us only beg Brother Zhao to spare the sect behind us and not let the Taoist tradition be destroyed."

Wei Wuya took out a emerald green jade pendant, Master Zhiyang took out a small fiery red sword, and the old demon Hehuan took out a token made of a magic marrow stone.

"I didn't expect you to be so well prepared. It seems like you had anticipated this."

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang was slightly startled, but continued smiling.

"But if you know the outcome, why do you insist on doing this? Although Zhao has a lot of hatred with you, I have never had the intention to kill you fellow Taoists. Why do you have to do this?"

"At this point, there's no point in saying more. Brother Zhao, just go ahead and take action. But this Immortal-Exterminating Pearl is a legacy from the ancient times, so Brother Zhao, please be careful. If Brother Zhao dies, the three of us will also take care of your concubines and companions."

Master Zhiyang sighed and said.

"You are not worthy enough to fight me. Xueyan, take care of them. Remember to be careful of the Immortal Destroying Pearl. However, you should know how to deal with it."

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang laughed sarcastically and gave orders.

He didn't care about the Immortal-Destroying Pearl at all, he just wanted to see these "three old friends" for the last time.

Now that I have seen you, I will naturally send you off.

"Yes, Master".

"You are indeed colluding with the ancient demon."

The old demon Hehuan said angrily.

"hehe!"

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang was too lazy to continue paying attention to the three people and left directly. The three people didn't even know how Zhao Shuang left.

This is enough to illustrate the huge gap between them.

"Take out the Immortal-Exterminating Pearl! Otherwise, you won't even have a chance to attack."

"The Nascent Souls of three great cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage are enough for me to recover 70% to 80% of my strength. Then, I can go to Dajin. Thank you so much!"

The ancient demon Xueyan licked his lips and laughed.

"ridiculous".

Wei Wuya was furious and took the first step.

Master Zhiyang and the old demon Hehuan followed closely behind, assisting him.

……

As for the battle between the ancient demon Xueyan and the three cultivators, Zhao Shuang had no intention of paying any attention to it. He just wanted to go into seclusion and see if he could break through to the God Transformation Stage.

If it is not possible for the time being, then go to Dajin to resolve the Kunwu Mountain issue.

As long as this matter is resolved, the only thing left in the human world that needs his attention is the matter of the demonic energy.

Once the problem is solved, he will be able to prepare to leave the human world and ascend to the spiritual world.

After all, he is now considered an invincible existence in the human world.

……

The next day, the Nascent Soul cultivators of Taizhen Sect, Hehuan Sect, Huayi Sect, and Tiannan Sect, three sects that had been passed down since ancient times, learned about the deaths of the three cultivators.

Then, the entire sect joined the Tiandao League. This was also the arrangement made by Master Zhiyang, the old demon Hehuan, and Wei Wuya before they went to the Demon Valley.

Of course, the same was true for several other sects. As these three sects joined the Tiandao League, the Zhengdao League, the Jiuguo League, and the other Tianluo Kingdom sects of the Demonic Path, they naturally no longer hesitated and joined the Tiandao League one after another.

In this way, in just less than a year, the Tiandao League became the overlord of the entire Tiannan, and Zhao Shuang, as the leader of the Tiandao League, has become the lord of Tiannan even now in the Demon Valley.

However, the current Lord of Tiannan is temporarily replaced by Feng Bing.

The Tiandao League also completely opened up the teleportation array leading to the Chaos Star Sea and many sea areas.

This means that the prosperity of Tiannan's cultivation world is just around the corner.

Countless cultivators are grateful to Zhao Shuang, the Lord of Tiannan. As for the three great cultivators, basically no one knows or remembers them.

Feng Bing guessed that all this had a lot to do with Zhao Shuang who was in the Demon Valley.

After all, with the current strength of the Tiandao League, the three great cultivators and other cultivators in the middle Nascent Soul stage went to the Demon Valley to look for Zhao Shuang's whereabouts. This matter could not be hidden from her eyes and ears at all.

At the same time, something happened in the Boundless Sea, but it was a good thing. Seven islands appeared, which were the original Seven Spirit Islands.

As for the ancient sealed and suppressed evil spirit, it was completely fine, and there was an extra talisman in the depths! It was none other than Zhao Shuang's Devouring Ancestral Talisman.

It continuously devours the demonic energy in it. For the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, this demonic energy will not have any effect at all. Instead, it is an excellent vitality.

Zhao Shuang also planned to use the Devouring Ancestral Talisman to devour the demonic energy and transform it into the necessary vital energy so as to go one step further and impact the Divine Transformation Stage cultivator.

However, there was too much sealed ancient demonic energy, and even if the ancestral talisman was swallowed, it would not be completely devoured in a short time.

However, Zhao Shuang had plenty of time and didn't care too much about it. He just left the ancient demon there and ignored it.

He himself stayed in Lingmiao Garden in Zhuimo Valley to practice and break through the bottleneck of the Spirit Transformation Stage.

As long as I break through it, I will have no more worries and can go to the Great Jin Immortal Realm to solve the Kunwu Mountain issue. This is the most important thing, and the most important thing for the entire human world.

This is true for him, Yin Yue, and the entire human world.

It must be resolved. As for the space node, he is not too worried because he already knows about it.

Moreover, he has the ability to safely pass through the space nodes and ascend to the spiritual world.

However, he had to break through the Spirit Transformation Stage first to resolve the Kunwu Mountain issue.

Especially the clone of Saint Yuansha, whether it is to be killed or captured, it must be resolved.

It's just that the solution is different.

In fact, becoming an immortal cultivator can be considered a tragedy in some ways.

Although immortal cultivators possess great magical powers that are difficult for mortals to achieve and that mortals envy, and a lifespan that is extremely long,
But at the same time, one must practice non-stop before the end of one's life, for the sake of that almost slim hope of immortality.

Even Zhao Shuang was the same. He did things he was unwilling to do in order to seek immortality.

If one is truly born with great perseverance, it would be fine and he would not find cultivation to be painful at all. However, for ordinary cultivators, it is a dilemma.

If I continue to practice, the prospects of the great path are extremely slim. I really don't want to spend my life in boredom in meditation and seclusion. If I don't practice, I will have the opportunity to embark on the path of cultivating immortals in this life. Even if the hope of the great path is very slim, I will not be willing to give up like this.

What's more, with each level of advancement, there is also the powerful temptation of doubling your lifespan.

As a result, this has caused a polarization among the cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation.

On the one hand, those low- and middle-level cultivators with low qualifications and cultivation, once they have made some progress in their studies and realize that there is little hope for further advancement, will no longer be willing to practice in seclusion, but would rather live a carefree life of taking concubines and making friends. Some will simply return to the secular world, set up their own families, and become local tyrants.

On the other hand, those high-level cultivators felt that they were closer to the path of immortality, so they were unwilling to waste even a moment of time. They focused all their attention on cultivation and became indifferent to anything else.

If there were no many golden fingers that allowed Zhao Shuang to see the hope of immortality, Zhao Shuang would undoubtedly be the first type. But now with many golden fingers, Zhao Shuang is the second type.

Given so many golden fingers, any cultivator could become a high-level cultivator. However, a single mistake could bring disaster to the entire cultivation world.

After all, these golden fingers are too incredible, and any cultivator would want to get them.

The appearance of a small section of golden thunder bamboo in the Chaos Star Sea triggered a war that lasted for decades, let alone something as heaven-defying as the golden finger.

This is simply a catastrophe that will never end, and it will only end when the entire world of immortal cultivation is destroyed.

Therefore, unless necessary, Zhao Shuang would only teach some of the magical powers such as the Three Thousand Great Daos to people around him.

As for the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, Spells, Demon Refining Pot, and Meteor Tears, not a single bit of it can be leaked.

Otherwise, even he would be in big trouble.

……

Time flies, and one day there was a sudden thunderclap from the blue sky, and then the vital energy of the heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of miles from a high peak in the Fallen Demon Valley was touched.

Countless fist-sized spiritual light balls of various colors appeared out of thin air underground, among rocks, and among trees in the nearby mountains, and then quickly gathered towards the peak. Finally, they formed a group of bright spiritual clouds covering an area of ​​several acres above the mountain. The colorful clouds were spinning in the sky, just right at the cave in the center of the mountain.

Such a big move naturally alarmed Zhao Shuang's many concubines in the Demon Valley and Nangong Wan who was in retreat. They all came out of the retreat room and looked at the omen in the sky in surprise.

The leader is naturally Nangong Wan, and the other concubines all respect Nangong Wan.

Wen Qing from Chaos Star Sea successfully broke through to the Spirit Transformation Stage several years ago.

As for the Tiannan and Mulan clans, no one has found the right person yet. The most promising ones are Nangong Wan, Feng Bing, Madam Bai, and the goddess of music from the Mulan clan.

At this time, Nangong Wan was standing in the distance in a white and snowy palace dress, her body spotless, like a fairy from the Moon Palace.

But this woman now frowned slightly, and when she saw Zhao Shuang and other concubines coming, she just nodded slightly and stared at the huge spiritual cloud that was changing not far away, her bright eyes flashing.

"Sister Nangong, is my husband breaking through the bottleneck of the Divine Transformation?"

Song Yutan asked softly.

Now, with Zhao Shuang's unremitting help, she has broken through the late stage of Jindan, and it will only take her twenty to thirty years to condense Yuanying. With her speed of cultivation and Zhao Shuang's help, there is some hope that she will advance to the Shenhua stage in the future.

"Except for the sprint to the Spirit Transformation Realm, how could breaking through an ordinary bottleneck have such a big momentum? It's just that this sign has lasted for a while, and it doesn't seem to be going well." Upon hearing this, Nangong Wan replied softly, with obvious worry in her eyes.

"Such an astonishing celestial phenomenon has already appeared, how could it fail?" Fairy Nishang, who was relatively close to Nangong Wan, spoke again, feeling incredible.

"If the spiritual cloud in the sky could be summoned to descend upon the mountain peak and merge with my husband's, this breakthrough would be considered largely successful. However, the spiritual cloud's descent is very forced, a sign that he's still unable to control the vital energy of heaven and earth. Therefore, the success rate of this breakthrough is likely to be low. This is also due to my husband cultivating so many magical powers, many of which are heaven-defying techniques. While others would be lucky to cultivate just one, with the prospect of immortality, my husband has cultivated them all. The difficulty of achieving a breakthrough is naturally far greater than that of ordinary cultivators."

Nangong Wan sighed softly and said,

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang's many concubines listened to Nangong Wan's words, and then looked up at the spiritual cloud in the sky. They found that the glittering spiritual cloud had indeed fallen towards the mountain below several times, but each time it was bounced back by an invisible force and could never really fall, as if it was struggling too much.

At this moment, the spiritual clouds that were rising and falling in the distant sky suddenly trembled violently, making a strange buzzing sound. Then the huge cloud rolled over and over, and after a loud bang that shook the earth, it exploded. After a flash of colorful spiritual light in the air, it disappeared without a trace.

And those spiritual light balls that were originally flying towards here suddenly disappeared in the midst of an unusually clear sigh coming from the mountain.

In an instant, everything nearby returned to normal.

Nangong Wan saw this scene, and a trace of pity appeared on her face.
"My husband has clearly already stepped halfway into the realm of Divine Transformation. He's just missing the last step. I believe that with a few more attempts, it's only a matter of time before he reaches the Divine Transformation realm."

Song Yu spoke again to comfort the women.

"Well, that's true."

Nangong Wan nodded in agreement.

"You're all here. Wan'er, Yu'er, please come in! The others will wait for a while."

At this time, Zhao Shuang's voice was heard from the mountain.

Before he finished speaking, a passage appeared in the fog around the mountain, allowing the two women to enter.

Seeing this, Nangong Wan and Song Yu looked at each other, then walked in side by side.

As for the remaining concubines, they stayed outside and waited quietly.

Although they were all Zhao Shuang's concubines, their degree of favor was different.

Song Yu, Han Yunzhi, Chen Qiaoqian, and Dong Xuaner are the ones most favored by Zhao Shuang.

For the others, it all depends on their beauty, and some may even only serve once or twice.
