Chapter 287 Variables
"It's time to prepare to go to the martial arts world."
Xu Xuan thought.
There is a trace of spiritual energy in the martial arts world, which is very little. Xu Xuan often uses the metaphor of egg drop soup sprinkled in the pond.
But don't look at the lack of spiritual energy. With spiritual energy, the world is different, so it is still a bit difficult to travel to that world, and it requires a lot of strength.
But with the preparation of the modern world, there is no problem entering that place, just be careful.
"But...if the crack is opened and the spiritual energy is exchanged, will the world change?"
The martial arts world has a characteristic, that is, the spiritual energy is not enough to give birth to the cultivation civilization, but it makes the warrior civilization very developed.
And through their internal strength, they can refine the longevity pill that prolongs life for twenty years.
This is a unique resource in that world. Xu Xuan once asked Yu Luo in the mirror world to experiment and let the people in the mirror world practice martial arts. Unfortunately, it was all unsuccessful. Once they reached the foundation building level, they immediately generated true qi and became body cultivators.
Moreover, the spiritual energy in the mirror world may be too high, and the internal force of the warriors does not have such pure life essence, which is far inferior to the martial arts world.
Of course, in terms of power, the power in the mirror world is naturally stronger, because there is more spiritual energy amplification.
But Xu Xuan did not want this, but the materials for the longevity pill.
"By the way, I wonder if the magic weapon of the past is still there, and what story has it played out?" Xu Xuan was a little curious.
While sensing the glowing gem behind the mirror with his divine mind.
This is a round blue gem, which complements the red of the modern world.
He is studying how to get through safely, instead of being caught in the turbulence of the void like the phoenix. Every time he actively breaks through the air and shuttles, it is actually very dangerous.
While sensing, the mirror emits a faint light.
Turning it over, it turns out that it was Yu Luo who sent the message.
The divine mind sensed it.
Wow!
The white light was strong, and then disappeared. After the light disappeared, storage bags appeared on the ground.
"Reporting to the Lord of the Mirror, all 500 million spirit stones have arrived." On the other side, Yu Luo's respectful voice came.
"Not bad." Xu Xuan's eyes lit up.
The remaining is the final payment, about 300 million, enough to turn the spirit vein of Qiyun Mountain into a large spirit vein. If there are still so many people practicing, it can be used for at least 10,000 years.
At least in this world, there is no need to worry about the problem of spiritual energy.
Of course, it is impossible to use it all at once. In the future, as the territory of the Taoist sect expands, there will be many spirit realms to be created, and these belong to the inventory.
Xu Xuan glanced at Yu Luo on the other side and thought: "It's almost done. I have squeezed out everything that can be squeezed out. I will find a time to change a new host another day."
Change the host, lay out the forces, and prepare for entering the mirror world in the future.
For a period of time, Xu Xuan studied the mirror every day.
With the emergence of four spirit realms, more and more Taoists entered, and the surrounding forces seemed to be dead, and dared not make any moves.
Of course, while the Taoist sect was expanding, it did not stop its actions against the surrounding forces.
Qiyun Mountain is in the shade, and this place is dark all year round, with a gloomy atmosphere.
The dark green ghost fog enveloped the deep and dense forest, and the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling could be heard from time to time.
This place is called the underworld by the Taoists, and it is also the place where General Heisha is in seclusion.
In the dark green fog in the sky, a hundred-foot-long red-maned scaleless white dragon dances in the clouds, and its body is agile and illusory.
Suddenly, a ray of light flew here, and the light dissipated, turning into a Taoist priest in white, wearing the Chixiao Sword and Jinwu Jade and other magical instruments. It turned out that the visitor was Xu Xuan.
Seeing this, the white dragon transformed into a white-clothed general. This is General Heisha, one of the two great saints of Taoism.
"Disciple pays homage to the Taoist master!"
General Heisha half-knelt and saluted.
"Heisha, I'll give you a task." Xu Xuan spread out his palm, and a jade box appeared. The translucent white jade box reflected a little golden light inside, and it looked vaguely like a cocoon.
"What is this?" Heisha asked.
"Outer Dao Seed, your task is to plant Outer Dao Seeds on people from other sects as much as possible. As for who to plant them and how many to plant, it's up to you to decide."
Xu Xuan refined more than 500 seeds this time, from all kinds of sects.
Now Outer Dao Seeds have become the second profession for cultivators within the sect. This kind of seed cannot be upgraded, but it can allow oneself to directly comprehend a spell, and the effect is quite amazing.
So getting more seeds, on the one hand, is to control the cultivators in this world, and on the other hand, it is also to improve the level of one's own disciples.
So Xu Xuan gave this task to Heisha, who is better at hiding.
"Yes!"
Heisha solemnly took the treasure. Since it was a task given by the Taoist master himself, he should try his best to complete it.
"You figure it out yourself."
Xu Xuan's figure flashed again and disappeared.
As his proficiency in breaking through the air shuttle increased, his figure became more and more erratic. He would appear here, and then a hundred miles away. Now he basically didn't need the bronze temple, which seemed too cumbersome.
The next day, General Heisha set off at night.
The first stop is a city in the Gou Chen Dynasty.
The cities in the Gou Chen Dynasty are almost identical, and the laws are still just as strict.
In the morning, the bells ring, and the people get up to work.
Farmers wear rough linen and walk on both sides of the road, while nobles wear silk and walk in the middle of the road.
Arriving at the market, a group of people are surrounding an open space. The perspective shifts to the other side, and two soldiers are escorting a group of prisoners. Those who have committed serious crimes are wearing shackles, and those who have committed lighter crimes have their hands tied.
The soldier reads out the law.
"If you see a fight and don't stop it, everyone within a radius of fifty steps will be fined one thousand yuan and a set of armor."
"If a neighbor commits a crime, ten households will be punished together and punished as city builders."
"Unemployed vagrants will be exiled to the border, and their neighbors will be punished as city builders."
The laws of the Gou Chen Dynasty were strict, and they used serious crimes for minor matters and punished instead of rewarding. Even if you did nothing, you would be implicated because of others.
Although theoretically everyone can climb to the top, most of the soldiers of the Gou Chen Dynasty, who struggled all their lives, could only avoid being punished, and could not become superior people at all.
Soon, because these people had no money, their crimes became more serious, and most of them were punished as city builders.
City builders were the hardest-working team of the Gou Chen Dynasty, with a very high mortality rate.
City builders were also very lowly jobs, with almost no time for cultivation, constantly casting spells all day long, and their lifespan was lower than that of normal mortals.
"Come on, take the people away!" the soldiers said to the monks who were constantly casting spells to solidify the road.
In the crowd, a young monk looked at the soldiers of the Gou Chen Dynasty and the city behind them with hatred.
"One day, I, Wu Sheng, will definitely destroy Gou Chen. Huh? What is this?"
Wu Sheng found something incredible. He saw a golden silkworm pupa growing on the leaves three meters ahead.
He intuitively thought it was a good thing, so he reached out to touch it and wanted to hide it. Who would have thought that as soon as he touched it, it instantly merged into his body.
Instantly, a memory appeared in his mind.
"Taoism, foreign seeds..." Wu Sheng's mouth drew a strange smile, "So this is the seed of Taoism, haha, Master Dao, watch how I climb up step by step."
Compared to other people, Wu Sheng was not afraid of this. According to the laws of Taoism, he was the type who would not be killed if he surrendered. From beginning to end, he had never taken the initiative to harm anyone, and he had no blood debt on him.
In this case, why not take the initiative to hand in the name of surrender and join Taoism in the future.
Doesn't Taoism want to cause damage to the Gou Chen Dynasty?
In this case, he will do it.
Outside the sky, the Black Evil General condensed into shape, looking at Wu Sheng below, his eyes full of interest, and said: "This Wu Sheng is really interesting, report to the master later."
This trip, a total of more than 20 seeds were planted.
He let some people know, and let some people not know. Anyway, those who knew did not dare to say it. After all, everyone wanted to kill the seeds of Taoism. Even if they reported it to the elders of the sect, their first reaction would definitely be to eliminate the host.
Even the most outstanding disciples would not report the seeds immediately once they had them, because they knew that there were only two outcomes for them: being killed or their status plummeting.
The latter premise was to get rid of the seeds, because there was a precedent in the Gou Chen Dynasty. Even if the seeds were proven to be removed, basically no one would trust them.
So this was a conspiracy of the Taoist sect.
Soon, all 500 seeds were sent out and spread across all major forces.
Time passed slowly, and soon, three years had passed.
Gou Chen Dynasty, the Imperial Court of the Divine Capital.
"Long live our emperor, and the sun and the moon will shine together!"
All the civil and military officials knelt down together.
Gou Chen Saint King seemed to have regained his peak of the year. He sat on the dragon throne and looked down, silent, wondering what he was thinking.
"Are these people truly loyal to me?" Gou Chen Saint King couldn't help but think in his heart.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years. Gou Chen Saint King is now particularly wary of his subordinates, fearing that another person controlled by the Taoist sect will appear.
Especially those with higher talents, even though he checked countless times, Gou Chen Saint King still couldn't help but doubt.
The previous incident with Yan Yang, in retrospect, in fact, if he had checked more carefully at the time, he could still find a clue.
So Gou Chen Saint King used this method to check many people, but the enemy was in the dark and he was in the light, so what if he checked strictly?
The other party always had a way to bypass his surveillance, and the more he found, the faster the other party would transform.
So this situation where there were no seeds found in the court was the most frightening.
People couldn't help but wonder, was it Xu Xuan who didn't start to make trouble, or was he hiding too deeply?
So Gou Chen Saint King no longer trusted others.
After today, he became a complete loner.
...
Bronze Temple.
Boom!
At this time, a strong wind blew, and colorful lights flashed.
A strong momentum swept over.
Under the Wutong sacred tree was Xu Xuan.
At this time, his whole body was golden, emitting a warm light like the sun, and a pair of golden wings appeared faintly behind him.
This movement alarmed two magic weapons.
Chilong and Jinwu leaned against the wall, the two spirit beasts stared with their big golden eyes, looking a little bit unseen.
"Brother Jinwu, what is this?" Chilong asked.
"It's a bit like the breath of my father." Jinwu looked at Xu Xuan and said.
"Father? You mean the sun?" Chilong asked.
"Yes."
Jinwu's predecessor was a silkworm. The silkworm absorbed the essence of the sun and transformed. It is not an exaggeration to call the sun the father.
The movement affected the outside of the temple.
In the middle of the night, the sun suddenly hung high in the Qiyun Mountain, and the hot golden light swept away the coldness of the night.
"It's okay, it's okay!"
"Continue to practice!"
The disciples opened the windows one after another, saw the scene of the temple, and then closed the door again.
No matter how magical it is, as long as the movement is made by the Taoist master, there is basically no need to worry about problems.
Soon, the noise subsided, and Xu Xuan woke up. His violent aura disappeared instantly.
The two red dragons surrounded him instantly and asked, "Master, what happened?"
"It's okay, I just broke through."
Xu Xuan let the two beasts leave, and then conjured a mirror.
The mirror reflected the physical situation.
Name: Xu Xuan
Lifespan: 605/1800
Realm: Late Jindan, fourth level of double pupils, fifth level of feathered immortal body
Skills: Shenxiao Thunder Book (Great Accomplishment: 64%), Jinguan Yusuo Qingjing Jue (Perfect), Shangzhen Jiuxiao Neijing (Perfect) fourth level of double pupils. Yuhua Feisheng Sutra (fifth level: 8%)
Spells: Fengyun Wings (entry level: 1%), Ten Thunder Method (minor success 18%), Enlightenment (minor success 92%), Sky-breaking Shuttle (minor success 84%), Sun and Moon Escape Method (major success 76%)...
Yuhua Feisheng Sutra broke through to the fifth level and awakened a new magical power, Fengyun Wings.
Xu Xuan circulated his true energy, and golden light gathered behind him to form a pile of pure wings.
Fengyun Wings, as the name suggests, has two magical powers, Bifeng and Jinyun. Bifeng is the bone-penetrating wind released by Taoist Zhongyuan back then.
Jinyun is the cloud of western gold energy, which is extremely sharp. Once covered by the golden cloud, the body will be destroyed immediately without leaving a trace.
Combined with the Bifeng from the inside out, it is simply killing people invisibly, and even the corpse cannot be found.
"Almost done." Xu Xuan simply tested it and then ignored it.
He was also a top expert in this world. It was meaningless to simply increase his cultivation. What he wanted to do most now was to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
But breaking through the Nascent Soul stage was too difficult. It was unknown how many years it would take to find this opportunity.
After practicing to this level, ordinary roots and so-called diligence were no longer of any use. All he had to do was to rely on a sudden enlightenment.
This enlightenment might take a few years, or even hundreds of years.
In the Nascent Soul stage, placed in the mirror world, he was also a big boss in a field and could dominate the fate of a country.
Thinking of this, Xu Xuan turned over the mirror again.
The gems on the mirror were more dazzling.
"Strange, is it so difficult?" Xu Xuan was a little curious. What changes had taken place in that world?
It felt that the difficulty of breaking through the air had increased. After three years of research, he had almost a clue.
Usually, the greater the difference between two worlds, the easier it is to enter the lower dimension from the higher dimension world.
Could it be that the martial arts world has been upgraded?
It is indeed possible. Before I left, that world had also undergone earth-shaking changes, and developed a warrior steam civilization.
Adding the variables of the feathered people's blood, maybe there really has been a big change.
"The Feathered Ascension Sutra has almost been broken through. Strike while the iron is hot and open the channel in one go."
Xu Xuan stood up, and his mind moved the entire spiritual vein.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
A strong wind blew up in the room again, and countless spiritual energy turned into white light and rushed into the mirror crazily.
Xu Xuan's eyes glowed with golden light, and he started to break through the air.
Wow!
A pure golden crack appeared in the void, and deep in the crack, there was endless darkness.
"Huh?"
