Finally, under the coercion of the three incarnations of Li Qingyun, the four guardians, who were willing to accept the tough but not the soft, chose to bow their heads and be beaten.
When Li Qingyun saw this, he put away his fighting spirit and quietly looked at the four guardians in front of him: "Let's go, lead the way."
"well--"
The four crows let out a long sigh and flew forward to lead the way for Li Qingyun.
At the same time, four voices sounded in Li Qingyun's ears at the same time:
"Fellow Taoist Li Qingyun, after meeting the ancestor of the Golden Fire Crow, please don't mention the defeat at your hands before, as well as the matter of the Eight Marks."
Li Qingyun looked at the four crows with different expressions and did not recover.
I mourned silently in my heart. There is no other way for the four fellow Taoists. When they meet your ancestors, they will definitely talk about the Eight Patterns...
When the four crows saw that Li Qingyun didn't answer, they stopped asking. They just sighed and continued to lead Li Qingyun to fly somewhere above the sky.
Soon, several people actually passed through the Suzaku Star and arrived at a space outside the Suzaku Star.
It's just that everyone didn't go to any star, but stopped in front of a deep starry sky.
The leading pink crow turned around and nodded to the other three crows. Then, the feathers on the heads of the four crows simultaneously emitted a ray of light and headed towards the deep starry sky ahead.
Boom——
Immediately, a gap opened in the starry sky, and the starry sky on both sides extended to both sides.
And between the gaps, a palace that seemed to be shrouded in endless flames faintly emerged.
Outside the crack, Si Crow looked at Li Qingyun seriously and said: "Fellow Taoist, this is the official residence of the Golden Fire Crow ancestor. You can enter it and wait. The ancestor will meet you after finishing his previous training. Wait.
It won’t last more than 30,000 years.”
"Okay, thank you all four!" Li Qingyun bowed his hands to the four crows earnestly, and said: "Four fellow Taoists, I have offended you many times before, please forgive me."
Hearing this, Si Crow also smiled at Li Qingyun and said, "Fellow Taoist, please don't be polite. Since you are so determined to meet the ancestor of the Golden Fire Crow, we will definitely not stop you any further."
"Please."
Li Qingyun nodded to the four crows, then flew into the rift in space and headed towards the flame hall.
[Mission: Go to the Zheng Kingdom, the great northern country of the Suzaku Holy Sect, to find the seventh-grade spiritual body Golden Fire Crow, and after defeating the four guardians under the Golden Fire Crow Seat, challenge the Golden Fire Crow. 】
[Golden Fire Crow: Possessing the fourth-level bloodline of the Sky-Swallowing Bird, his current strength has reached the late stage of the Saint Lord, and now his spirit body has the strength of the first Saint Lord.]
[Task required time: within one hundred thousand years.]
[If the mission cannot be completed within 100,000 years, it will be regarded as mission failure. During the mission access period, other spirit body missions cannot be accepted. If it cannot be completed, you can only wait 100,000 years to accept it again. 】
He recalled the contents of his previous mission.
In the mission display, the Golden Fire Crow had the fourth-level bloodline of the Sky-Swallowing Bird, but now, after coming to Zheng State, the Four Crows told themselves that this was not the case.
The Golden Fire Crow does not belong to the Sky-Swallowing Bird lineage, or even to the Suzaku Lineage...
There are many doubts here, and Li Qingyun wants to find out.
The Flame Palace was so big that even with Li Qingyun's speed, it took him a hundred breaths to reach it.
The gate was majestic and guarded by a human-shaped puppet. When the puppet saw Li Qingyun approaching, without making any inquiries, it gently activated the formation and opened the gate.
Li Qingyun made no extra moves and stepped into the door.
Inside the gate of the main hall is a huge reception area. There is a throne dozens of feet tall above it. There are also four thrones below, in four colors: pink, red, gray and purple.
Obviously, this is the seat of the Golden Fire Crow and the four guardians. Li Qingyun thought for a moment and sat in the Red Crow's seat.
There is no other reason, mainly because the red throne matches his green robe.
Outside the rift, the Four Crows had no intention of coming in. They just wanted Li Qingyun to wait here.
Li Qingyun thought for a moment, then crossed his legs directly on the red crow's throne and started practicing.
The flow of time in this place will not be accelerated because of one's status as a cultivator, but will completely follow the flow of time in the virtual world.
According to the Four Crows, the waiting time for the Golden Fire Crow Ancestor's visit may be up to 30,000 years, and Li Qingyun must find a way to pass the time.
He took out some treasures that cultivated the cultivation of the semi-saint from the storage space and began to consume them. While strengthening the three incarnations, he waited for the appearance of the Golden Fire Crow.
Soon, about three hundred years later.
Li Qingyun opened his eyes from practice and looked upward.
"Your distinguished guest has been waiting for a long time."
At this time, in the huge throne at the top of the hall, a divine crow bathed in golden fire was sitting quietly.
The Golden Fire Crow appeared in front of him at some unknown time.
Li Qingyun was shocked and immediately stood up and saluted: "I have seen Senior Jin Huo Ya."
Golden Fire Crow nodded his huge head at Li Qingyun and said: "I know everything about you."
"You came from the Suzaku Holy Sect and came here. First you challenged my four guardians one after another, and now you come here to see me."
Li Qingyun raised his eyebrows: "Dare you ask me, senior, if it was the four guardians who told you this?"
The Golden Fire Crow smiled and said: "They don't need to tell me. In the area covered by the power of my faith, I am omniscient and omnipotent."
"I know everything about what happened in Zheng."
"So, you know that the four of them have always been involved in the Eight Patterns?" Li Qingyun looked strange.
"Of course," a mysterious smile appeared on Jin Huoya's lips: "Besides, I know it before the four of them."
"After I created the "Golden Fire Technique", I was the first to know its pros and cons. After the four of them practice to the eighth pattern, they will definitely be stuck. This is not because of their qualifications.
, but it’s a matter of technique.”
Li Qingyun was a little stunned when he saw Jin Huoya put forward this problem so straightforwardly: "So, have you solved this problem with the technique?"
Golden Fire Crow smiled and said: "I have been solving it for more than ten million years."
"I would like to hear the details." Li Qingyun clasped his fists and said to Jin Huo Ya.
"Hahaha……"
The Golden Fire Crow laughed, and then his huge body quickly shrank, and finally turned into a sharp-mouthed middle-aged man in a yellow robe, and he flashed his body and sat next to Li Qingyun.
"Come, let me tell you something."
"When you were talking to Zi Crow, you once asked me about my practice, and it even touched the practice in your heart."
"Then you must be curious about what difficulties I encountered after leaving the four paths of the Suzaku lineage, right?"
Li Qingyun's eyes lit up: "Please give me some advice, senior."
Jinhuoya said calmly: "I am of the 1st bloodline, but when I was practicing, I transferred to the Suzaku clan skills for a period of time. I have dabbled in devouring, flame, evolution, and light, and my achievements are not small. Among them
, especially good at swallowing one.
Therefore, within the Suzaku Holy Sect, some people have always believed that I am a fourth-level bloodline of the Suzaku clan."
"But my ambition is far more than that. I hope to follow the path of 1 and become a strong man like the Almighty Golden Crow, so I came up with the "Golden Fire Technique"."
"This is a technique that I deduced after trying to break away from the four directions of Suzaku's bloodline and find a direction that belongs to me, a direction that belongs to me."
"Actually, this technique is perfect. It is completely sufficient for the four guardians to practice to the realm of nine patterns."
"It's just that I miscalculated something at the time."
"What?" Li Qingyun asked.
"The power of faith."
Golden Fire Crow said to Li Qingyun calmly.
"I underestimated the difficulty of becoming a strong person and creating a clan."
"Anyone who can become the strongest person in a clan and create a race must be empowered by the power of faith of the entire clan."
"I used to think that it was because they were strong that the entire ethnic group believed in them."
“But it wasn’t until I created Golden Fire Technique that I realized that the two complemented each other.”
"The person who can create a group is certainly powerful, but for him to reach the top, the gathering of the power of faith within the entire group is also indispensable."
"So...if I want to truly achieve perfection in my "Golden Fire Technique", I must have a sufficient number of believers to provide me with the power of faith."
"But the competition for the power of faith is so fierce. Almost all the power of faith in the Suzaku Star has been taken over by the Heavenly Lords of the Suzaku lineage. I spent an unknown amount of money to finally find my own acre in Zheng State.
Three points of land.”
"With the Zheng State as the center, the population of dozens of nearby small countries devoutly believe in my totem. At this rate, in about twenty epochs, there is a 10% chance that the "Golden Fire Art" will be perfect, and 1 can become a powerful clan.
And I, the Golden Fire Crow, can also use this to become a heaven-level powerhouse."
"Twenty epochs, 10%?" Li Qingyun said in astonishment: "This is too difficult..."
Jinhuoya smiled and said: "There is a 10% chance that it is my luck. Don't you even think about it. Who is the powerful person who can truly win the faith of a clan and is not an emperor-level figure?"
"It's difficult to reach their height..."
As soon as he said this, Li Qingyun nodded solemnly.
Take the Lingluo Realm as an example. Whether it is the Underworld Emperor, the Demon Lord, the Saint Ancestor or the Immortal Emperor, they are actually all big figures. If you want to copy their experience, it will be really big.
Thinking of this, he asked again: "Senior, what kind of ethnic group do you think is most likely to give birth to such a strong man?"
"Such a strong man?" Jin Huoya said with a smile: "Actually, this kind of path is called the Avenue of Mind Power."
"What he cultivates is the power that a group of people relies on for survival, and the power of this group's thoughts, that is, the power of faith, can feed back into the power he cultivates."
"People who follow this path are called - saints of mental power."
"As for the perfect ethnic group that gave birth to the saint of mental power... probably, this ethnic group has a fairly large base, but the emperor-level figures who founded this ethnic group have disappeared, and currently, this ethnic group does not have the power to unite the faith of the entire ethnic group.
The top strong man."
After Golden Fire Crow finished speaking, he shook his head mockingly: "But how can such a group exist?"
After Li Qingyun heard these words, he froze in place as if he had been struck by lightning.
The situation that Golden Fire Crow just mentioned...
