"Your Majesty, this is a gift from the Great Heavenly Lord. Please take a look at it."
The leader of the five war gods, the Sky War God, walked into the hall holding a dark iron box with immortal seal symbols engraved on its surface.
He placed the iron box on the ground and retreated.
Ren was a little curious about what treasure the Jade Emperor had given him, so he walked over, put his palm on the box, and pressed it.
"Click~"
Many immortal cloud seal symbols shined, the black iron box trembled, the lid opened, and a misty yellow mist suddenly overflowed from the inside.
The inside of the iron box is filled with mustard seeds. The space is very large. As far as the eye can see, the large fog above is as dense as a mountain and as thick as lead. The whole body is black and yellow. Just a wisp of fog can crush a mountain. It is so heavy.
People suffocate.
"Rumble..."
The mist surges, distorts space, reverses yin and yang, and brings with it the Tao Yun of the epoch-making period. It is the legendary black and yellow qi!
Xuan is the essence of heaven, and yellow is the marrow of earth. Xuanhuang is the "essence of heaven and earth", a rare top immortal material in the three realms.
"It's actually the mother energy of all things?"
Ren's eyes opened slightly, showing a look of surprise.
Nameless, the beginning of heaven and earth, is the Tao.
The name, the mother of all things, is earth.
Therefore, Xuanhuang Qi is also the essence of heaven and earth, the mother Qi of all things, the strongest substance that can temper all tangible qualities, and is one of the most rare essences in heaven and earth.
In other words, the two qi of black and yellow are also one of the best holy objects for refining "instruments"!
At the beginning of the world, the essence was overflowing. It was black and yellow. The quantity was pitiful and almost exhausted. It was the favorite of the most powerful people and a treasure for refining weapons.
How many powerful monks have searched for this kind of fairy material in every possible way, but they can hardly find anything. Even after searching for a lifetime, they still can't get a trace.
"Haotian is quite generous."
Ren's whole body was filled with star power. With a wave of his hand, Ji Dao sword intent was unleashed. The sword in his hand was sharp, cutting through the black and yellow clouds that were condensed like mountains, and swept back and forth in the box several times.
"Is there a source of Qi, the mother of all things?"
His silver eyes were flowing as he explored the space inside the box.
Xuanhuang Qi was very precious, but he also had some on hand. The imitation Chaos Bell he seized from Lu Ya had some Xuanhuang Qi mixed in it.
What is even more precious is the source of Qi, the mother of all things.
As long as there is Xuanhuang Source Root, the mother energy of all things can be continuously produced.
He fished out, and found that black and yellow energy was rippling inside the box, but he found nothing.
Just when he was a little disappointed, he suddenly felt his hand heavy and pulled hard.
boom!!
A ball of black and yellow essence as big as a baby's fist flew out. In an instant, the universe was in chaos, yin and yang were at odds, and the black and yellow energy spurted out, as if to crush the space and recreate the world!
A piece of the root of the mother energy of all things.
Ren was a little happy and quickly curled his lips again and said:
"It's a little too small. What can you do with such a small amount, make a bracelet?"
Call the Jade Emperor stingy. The other party took out a piece of the Mother Qi Source Root and a large amount of ordinary Xuanhuang Qi. He was not mean and unkind.
Call him generous, but there are too few Xuanhuang Origin Roots, not enough to make a heavy weapon.
"The ruthless Emperor is still generous, but the Jade Emperor, an old boy, is not cool enough after all."
"Who is the ruthless emperor?"
The Nine Heavens Mysterious Girl was dressed in fluttering white clothes, with her black hair combed into clouds on her temples. She was noble and elegant, tall and graceful, and walked in with a light step.
"Ahem, it's nothing, a reclusive fairy." Ren coughed lightly and immediately changed the subject, "Why are you back?"
"Sister Chang'e has looked away and doesn't need my comfort. I will come back naturally."
Jiutian Xuannv said calmly.
She walked over and looked at the black and yellow Qi surging like yellow clouds on the black iron box, as well as the mother Qi root of all things that was as big as a baby's fist and shining with golden luster. She couldn't help but open her beautiful eyes slightly.
"Be content. The Xuanhuang Source Root will continue to grow and produce a large amount of Mother Qi of all things. Given time, it will surely be able to be forged into a super-heavy treasure."
There was a hint of envy in her voice.
As an innate god, she was lucky enough to collect some Mother Qi of all things in the beginning of time, but she had no chance to obtain the source of Mother Qi of all things.
Most of the roots of the Mother Qi of all things in this world were obtained by the Taiqing Saint, and they were forged into an acquired treasure that is famous throughout history - the Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda of Heaven and Earth.
Legend has it that Pangu opened the sky and died. He had a sense of the great road, and the black and yellow essence was produced in the void of heaven and earth. It was obtained by Taiqing and cast into a pagoda.
Once this tower is sacrificed, it will be invincible. It is the most valuable treasure of merit and virtue in the three realms. It can avoid all evils, be immune to all methods, and is immune to cause and effect when killing people. It can resist the top magic weapons such as the Killing Immortal Sword Formation and the Purple Electric Hammer.
harm.
The Daode Tianzun is sitting on the black and yellow exquisite pagoda of heaven and earth, and the two treasures of Tai Chi. In terms of defensive warfare, he is definitely the first in the three realms and the leader of all saints.
Renn asked: "How long will it take for this black and yellow source root to grow strong enough to be cast into a heavy weapon?"
"Well...it will probably take tens of millions of years."
"..."
(ー_ー)!!
He had nothing to say and felt a little bit at a loss.
After going through life and death, just to get such a small piece of Xuanhuang Origin Root, it can't be said to be profitable in any case. Fortunately, I have the trophies obtained from Taoist Lu Ya as comfort.
"Lu Ya is still generous."
Ren put the Xuanhuang essence into the picture of the sky, touched the "Immortal Killing Gourd" hanging on his waist, and sighed.
The best innate spiritual treasure, the immortal-killing gourd.
The top-grade Houtian Lingbao, Demon Emperor Halberd.
The ultimate palace spiritual treasure, the Demon Palace.
The best innate spiritual root, the Fusang Sacred Tree.
365 star flags, as well as the massive resources in the Golden Crow Cave...
It can be said that the defeat of Lu Ya almost overwhelmed Lei, and nothing could be better than that of a boy who scattered wealth.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Greedy Wolf Star has sent you something."
The Sky God of War walked in, holding a silver vase in his hand, and reported.
Ren was slightly startled.
Tanlangxingjun, one of the "Big Dipper Lords", is the direct subordinate and confidant of Emperor Ziwei. According to legend, he is also his younger brother.
At the beginning of time immemorial, Mrs. Ziguang/Mr. Doumu Yuan made a great wish towards the way of heaven, wishing to give birth to a holy son, assisting the universe and benefiting the good fortune.
Later, she came to the Golden Lotus Wenyu Pond, took off her clothes and took a bath, and suddenly she felt that the nine lotus flowers developed in due time and gave birth to nine sons.
His second eldest son is Emperor Tianhuang (Gou Chen) and Emperor Ziwei.
His seven youngest sons are Greedy Wolf, Jumen, Lucun, Wenqu, Lianzhen, Wuqu and Pojun Star.
Theoretically speaking, Emperor Ziwei, his predecessor Gou Chen, and Lord Big Dipper are all brothers.
Of course, there is another rumor in the mythical world of Heaven.
Doumu Yuanjun once served Yuanshi Tianzun diligently, wishing to give birth to a holy son and benefit all living beings. Yuanshi Tianzun fulfilled his wish and practiced double cultivation with her in the jade pond. The wonderful path of Yuanshi magnified the light and illuminated the Huachi, and nine golden lotuses were born in the pond.
Bao, after seven days and seven nights, nine holy sons appeared...
If this rumor is true, it would be amazing.
There is also a saying that the Antarctic Immortal Emperor is the son of Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiyuan Holy Mother.
These legends are true or false, their origins are difficult to distinguish, and opinions vary. It is difficult for outsiders to know the specific circumstances except those involved.
"Mr. Greedy Wolf Star said, this is the thank you gift from Emperor Ziwei."
The Sky War God seemed to see his boss's doubts and explained.
"Thank you?"
Ren was a little surprised, took the silver bottle and unscrewed it.
The stars inside are flowing, the purple light is rippling, it is liquid and crystal clear.
A pot of starlight water!
This time he found out the cause of death of his predecessor, Emperor Gouchen. It seems that Emperor Ziwei was a little grateful for this and sent gifts in return.
He had already obtained a pot of moonlight divine water from Chang'e, and now he had obtained starlight divine water.
Now, as long as you collect the "Sunlight Divine Water", you can synthesize the three-light divine water, the first healing medicine in the three realms.
The Sunlight Divine Water can be extracted from the Fuso Sacred Tree...
Ren was very happy and ordered:
"I will give you nine golden flowers and five jars of royal wine to Lord Greedy Wolf Star."
"I understand."
The Sky War God nodded and respectfully stepped back.
"Emperor Yao, you have made a fortune this time." Jiutian Xuannv said a little enviously.
Ren said with a smile: "What's mine is yours."
Jiutian Xuannv's pretty face turned red, she glared at him, and warned a little sullenly:
"Don't tease me casually, otherwise don't blame me for falling out!"
"Okay, no more talking."
Ren smiled playfully, put away the silver bottle, and gossiped, "There are rumors that Dou Mu Yuanjun and Sage Yuqing practiced together in Kunlun Yuchi and gave birth to Gou Chen, Ziwei and Big Dipper Lord. Is this true?"
Xuannv is an innate god. She has also stayed in Kunlun Mountain, so she should know many secrets.
"Well...it's hard to say. The relationship between Doumu Yuanjun and Tianzun is indeed very close, but Gouchen, Ziwei should not be Tianzun's son."
"Then the Emperor Changsheng is the son of Yuqing?"
"Well, the Antarctic Immortal Emperor is the son of Tianzun."
"..."
Awesome, my brother.
Thinking about it this way, Yuanshi Tianzun is so awesome. He is the father of the Siyu Nanji Changsheng Emperor, and he also won the "Mother of the Stars" Dou Mu Yuanjun. At least he can be regarded as the stepfather of his predecessor Gou Chen and Zi Wei.
Three of the four emperors in heaven have a close relationship with him.
In addition, among the five elders of the five directions, Emperor Zhenwu has already joined the command of Yuanshi Tianzun.
The list of gods is also in his hands!
No wonder there are rumors that the Lord of the Three Realms, on the surface, is the Jade Emperor, but in fact he is the Yuanshi Tianzun...
"After the death of his predecessor Gou Chen, Emperor Ziwei never doubted Sage Yuqing, but only grabbed the Jade Emperor to fight against him. It was obvious that Sage Yuqing was more suspicious before, but now..."
Ren thought to himself.
The four emperors were not qualified to interrogate the Sanqing saints, but they were both in the Heavenly Court camp, and Emperor Ziwei didn't even dare to say a few words of doubt.
He has never doubted Yuanshi, and his relationship with Yuanshi Tianzun is probably extraordinary.
The Antarctic Immortal Emperor is not a die-hard loyalist to the Jade Emperor, so it can be explained.
In the heaven, Yuqing almost dominates the family, even surpassing the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. Taiqing seems to be lying flat, and the leader of Shangqing Tongtian never comes to heaven...
The water is very deep.
It seems that the saints rarely show up, but their tentacles are everywhere in the three realms and six realms.
"I'm still far behind."
Ren sighed and went to retreat.
Meditate to heal his wounds, repair his orifices, and perfect the way of the Emperor... He cannot slack off yet, he must quickly become the Emperor of Heaven and complete the main mission 2 - Conquer the whole life.
Jiutian Xuannv also chose to practice in seclusion.
She was severely hit this time and almost became a demon. Although she was defeated, she also gained a lot of insights and was closer to the quasi-sage realm.
Deep in the imperial palace, silence fell.
However, Zhao Gongming of Black Tiger Xuan Tan became very busy, handling official duties on behalf of his unreliable boss and receiving an endless stream of visitors.
Renn defeated Daojun Lu Ya, wiped out the demon court, and became famous in one battle.
This was the first time in the ancient times that a major force had been destroyed. After the news spread, it caused a sensation in the three worlds, and its impact was no less than that of the death of his predecessor Gou Chen.
The direct impact is that gods visit Gouchen Imperial Palace every day, some come to give gifts and establish relationships, some come to talk about Taoism, some try their attitudes and stances, some want to become apprentices and learn skills...
In just six months, Marshal Zhao received Zhen Yuanzi and several of his disciples, including the Eight Immortals Lu Dongbin, the Barefoot Immortal, the East Prince, the Three Stars of Fortune, Luxu and Shou, Taiyi Zhenren, Erlang Shen, Bixia Yuanjun, Chang'e Fairy, Huo Yun
Cave Messenger and many other gods.
When they learned that Gou Chen had entered deep seclusion, they all felt a little regretful and left gifts or letters before leaving.
"It's too fast. Before you know it, the emperor has become a giant. This circle of people..."
Marshal Zhao walked into the imperial palace treasure house holding an extremely exquisite jade box.
The warehouse is very large, with a white jade floor inside. Various desks and tables and chairs are filled with various boxes, gold bottles, fruit baskets, jewelry and emeralds, calligraphy and painting ancient utensils and other gifts. The light is shining, and the ten-color treasure energy is flowing.
These are gifts from guests.
"Even Guanyin Bodhisattva asked Venerable Hui'an (Muzha) to send gifts, and the emperor stepped on their future Buddha many times to make the three worlds powerful... Maybe she and Maitreya actually have a normal relationship?"
Marshal Zhao sighed, found an empty desk, and put down the jade box.
He admired Emperor Yao very much.
Hibernating for eternity, he won the throne of Gouchen as soon as he was born, surrounded by a pack of wolves, and then powerfully defeated Dao Lord Lu Ya, defeated the two Buddhas, and wiped out the Royal Court of Ten Thousand Demons, establishing his status as a giant in the ancient world.
This speed of rise is rare in ancient times.
"Unfortunately, it is difficult for Yin spirits to become saints for thousands of kalpas. Once they enter this list of gods, they will not be free for thousands of kalpas."
He couldn't help but sigh.
He was also a man of great influence back then. During the Battle of the Gods, he was at the peak of Da Luo's cultivation. His strength was not inferior to Taoist Lu Ya and Guang Chengzi, and even exceeded it.
But in the blink of an eye, they all became enlightened and quasi-sages, but he was still standing still.
Even if he puts down his face and lowers his voice to please Yuanshi Tianzun these years, he still doesn't get the chance to get off the list.
This huge gap is really unpleasant.
"I wonder how my sister is doing..."
………
Dongsheng Shenzhou, the end of the East Pole, the blue sea.
This place is already close to the legendary end of the world, the land of sunrise.
On the coast, blue waves stretch to the sky, fish and dragons are out of their nests, rivers and seas are against the waves, white lotus flowers are swaying, sunset spreads for 30,000 miles, strange fragrance fills the sky, and clear breeze permeates the clouds.
Taoist Wuji rode a white horse to the edge of the cliff, preparing to cross the sea.
Suddenly, purple energy came from the east and spread tens of thousands of miles.
The sky is rippling, the sun and the moon are shining together, the Tao follows nature, and the weather is myriad.
"Um?"
Taoist Wuji stopped and stared.
A butterfly with colorful wings danced gracefully, riding the breeze, blowing through the waves, and drifted over.
Its shape looks somewhat transparent, seemingly real and fake, with a faint glow.
I can only see it gently flapping its wings, the sun and the moon are full, the stars are arranged, the clouds are making rain, the dew is turning into frost, and the cold and summer are coming and going, one by one.
The wings flap again, the three clans of dragon, phoenix and unicorn are fighting for hegemony, the great lich and god are fighting each other, all races are bleeding, and the prehistoric history of the rise of mankind flashes quickly.
The wings flap again, chaos opens up, yin and yang intertwine, four images stand side by side, and all things happen.
The wings flap again, the gods and humans decline, the great catastrophe of the era, the blood of immortals and Buddhas, the six paths of reincarnation, the three realms return to ruins...
"Heaven and earth are born together with me, and all things are one with me..."
Dream butterflies fluttered, and a clear sound came out, like morning bells and evening drums, or the sound of hooves on the avenue.
Zhuangzi?
Taoist Wuji looked solemn, got off his white horse, bowed and said:
"I am a poor Taoist, but I have met a Taoist friend."
This person's realm is so high and his magic power is so strong that he is close to a saint.
The dream butterfly fell, the clear light of the avenue flashed, and a young Taoist appeared.
He has an average appearance, with medium-long black hair. In his eyes are the sun and the moon, the stars are fading, his breath is misty, and his figure is dreamlike, as if he will ride the wind back at any time.
He looked calm, bowed his hands, and said in return:
"I've met Taoist friends."
"Why did fellow Taoist stop me?"
"I'm just a little curious and want to meet the founder of the ancestral land of Kyushu, the human-immortal martial arts."
The young Taoist replied with a calm expression. He opened his palms and the purple light of the avenue rippled. A jade book emerged from the whirlpool and was thrown over.
Wuji Taoist Master took it. The jade album was made of a kind of blue-white sacred jade. The album was divided into sixteen bamboo slips. The bamboo slips were connected in series with gold threads and engraved with immortal cloud seals. The green light was flowing, the purple energy was filled, and the Tao Yun was reflected.
endless.
There are four words on the cover - "The Great Dream Heart Sutra".
The Great Dream Heart Sutra is a technique created by Xiaoyao Tianzun.
Xiaoyao Tianzun, the sub-sage of the Taoist sect, has a mysterious origin. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a ray of incarnation came to Kyushu, named "Zhuang Zhou", and he was one of the pre-Qin scholars.
Zhuangzhou and Laozi are both called "Laozi and Zhuangzi".
Taoism includes the Huang-Lao School and the Lao-Zhuang School.
Huang refers to the Yellow Emperor, the great immortal with yellow horns at the central yellow pole.
In the mythological world of Heaven, Taoism and Taoism are of the same origin, and are collectively called Taoism. However, there are also considerable internal differences. The highest god of Taoism is Sanqing, but Taoism only recognizes Taiqing.
"It turns out to be Xiaoyao Tianzun, disrespectful."
Taoist Wuji put away the "Dream Heart Sutra", spread out his palms, condensed the golden light, turned it into a copy of the nine-volume martial arts scripture, and threw it away.
Taoist Zhuang Zhou took it, browsed it quickly, and praised:
"If a person performs the Immortal Martial Arts, his Taoist friends can be called the Martial Ancestors. Nowadays, the Martial Arts has been opened up, and the Immortals and Martial Arts stand side by side. Ordinary people can also use it to strengthen their bodies, and their merits are immeasurable."
Taoist Wuji looked calm and said: "That's an honor. Why doesn't Tianzun try to attain enlightenment?"
Xiaoyao Tianzun is so special. When he incarnates as a dream butterfly, things and self are confused, and he is in harmony with the Tao. He is in a state of slight resonance with the Tao of Heaven at all times, and he is already qualified to knock on the door of Hunyuan.
Logically speaking, the success rate is quite high.
Zhuangzi shook his head gently and turned into a dream butterfly.
"A perfect person has no self, a god has no merit, and a saint has no name."
The dream butterfly flaps its wings, dances gracefully, escapes into the Qingming, and disappears.
Taoist Wuji's eyes flashed, he opened the "Great Dream Heart Sutra", read it once, his mind was shaken, and he understood why Xiaoyao Tianzun did not try to attain enlightenment.
"The great dream is eternal, use falsehood to cultivate truth, have an infinite mind, don't seek external things, transcend everything..."
Such a road is so amazing, so extreme, so regrettable and deplorable."
A system of cultivating immortality that requires no external objects at all.
No need to fight, no need to enter the world of mortals, just dream forever, accumulate mana, no need for any other resources, just explore the power of the soul, and you can obtain infinite mana.
To a certain extent, this may be the real way of immortality.
However, this is too extreme.
Not seeking external things and transcending everything means transcending even the way of heaven.
How can this be?
Even the Hunyuan Saint cannot completely transcend the limitations of heaven.
"Dead end, perhaps countless calamities, settling everything, ending the era, with a glimmer of hope for enlightenment."
Taoist Wuji stood there and spent a year comprehending the "Dream Heart Sutra", then closed the jade book and came to a conclusion.
He can only learn a thing or two about this thing, but he can't learn it.
Don't talk about him, the saints probably can't learn from it, and they can't completely stop asking for external things.
In the three realms, there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons.
There may be more than one hidden power like Xiaoyao Tianzun.
Wuji Taoist Master began to cross the blue sea. At the place where the sun rises, the flames roared, the sea boiled, the space was chaotic, and the golden immortal was difficult to cross.
If you do it forcefully, you will plunge into the sea of chaos and emptiness.
He studied for a period of time, walking one hundred thousand miles in the sea every day when the sun rose. Whenever the Ziwei Emperor Star or the twenty-eight constellations appeared, he would go another hundred thousand miles in a roundabout way.
In this way, after half a month of walking and stopping, he came to a mysterious and unknown sea area. An ancient island was located in the dark ocean. It was full of vitality, with endless magical medicines and fruits, and the fragrance of medicines was fragrant.
The most eye-catching thing is that there is an ancient tree on the island. It is golden in color, as if it were made of gold, with lush golden leaves, flowing with the holy power of the sun!
"Fuso Sacred Tree?"
Taoist Wuji frowned.
It shouldn't be, the real Fuso Sacred Tree is on his body now.
However, the hibiscus tree in front of us only has one main trunk, and it is far less than several thousand feet high, only six feet high, but it is more powerful than the mountains.
It has a special momentum. The golden holy power of the sun flows, as if it is opening up an ancient universe and evolving into three thousand realms. The golden mist is shrouded in a myriad of phenomena.
"Rumble..."
There was a sound of wind and thunder, and above the six-foot-long golden hibiscus sacred tree, there was an ancient palace appearing, hazy and unclear, as if it was in the clouds and mist, or in another world.
