Chapter 454 Everlasting, listen to the ears of the sea god
Lord Aoki was shocked.
Why is it such a coincidence that the Taoist name used by this mysterious elder is the same as Lu Changan?
Does this statement mean that he has a connection with Lu Changqing, or does he know that he was defeated in the battle with True Lord Changqing?
In an instant, Lord Aoki guessed the identity of the old man in ancient robes.
The legendary great monk, Yan Donglai.
According to the records of Tianheng Continent's "Yunei Qiren Series", he is the human monk with the longest lifespan in modern times.
Living to this age, he can be called an evergreen tree and a living fossil in the world of immortality.
Lord Aoki's heart was beating wildly, he took a deep breath, raised his hands respectfully and said:
"Senior Yan, please come in."
The elder in ancient robes smiled unchanged, did not deny the title, and entered the cave first.
Looking at Yan Donglai with his back turned to him, Qingmu Zhenjun's thoughts were racing.
At this moment, he unleashed his secret technique, escaped regardless of the cost, and called other Nascent Soul monks in Lanhefang City.
He didn't do it after all.
Even if he is targeted by other Nascent Soul cultivators, with his current strength and supernatural powers, his chances of survival are slim.
…
Inside the cave, the two of them sat down.
Yan Donglai was like a teacher, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
Just now in front of the cave, it was a good opportunity for Lord Aoki to give it a try.
After learning his identity, Lord Aoki did not panic, but remained calm, and received him politely, which is commendable.
"Courage and good will."
"It's a pity that my little friend once possessed the Yimu Taoist body, but failed to break through the shackles and advance to the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Otherwise, Yan may consider accepting you as his disciple."
There was regret in Yan Donglai's tone, and his expression seemed to be a true pity for his talent.
Lord Aoki was secretly shocked. It was just the first time they met, and Yan Donglai knew about his past. His original body was Yimu Taoist body.
Yan Donglai's divination skills reached unimaginable heights, far surpassing those of the Celestial Master behind Lu Changan and the Master of the Seven Star Temple.
"I would like to ask Master Yan, I am not bad in qualifications and practice hard, but why is it difficult to advance to the middle stage of Nascent Soul? Is there any defect in the "Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique" that I am practicing?"
Lord Aoki sat down obediently, just like a disciple who listens to the instructions and asks for advice humbly.
If he was promoted to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, how could he lose miserably to Lu Changqing?
After cultivating to the Nascent Soul stage, he had a vague feeling that the technique was incomplete, perhaps because Yan Donglai had tampered with it or had some reservations.
"The "Evergreen Gong" that I practice may not be complete, let alone my little friend?"
Yan Donglai looked calm and said calmly.
"Then where does the "Eternal Green Technique" come from?" Lord Aoki asked subconsciously.
"I don't know at what age, a powerful person observed an ancient tree that opened up the sky and created the "Eternal Green Art of Ancient Trees." That ancient tree that opened up the sky was conceived in chaos. After endless years, it grew infinitely and was immortal throughout the ages.
It is even longer than the legendary ancient immortal, also known as the 'Eternal Evergreen Wood'."
"Eternally green..."
Lord Aoki murmured in a low voice. Just by hearing about the legendary origin of the Evergreen Kung Fu, he had a vague understanding and noticed the deviation of his past practice.
"According to research, the "Evergreen Kung Fu" spread from the Fallen Immortal Realm to the human world and came from the disintegrated "Evergreen Taoist Palace"."
"To practice this skill, you should be quiet and not move. Understand the four seasons of prosperity and decline, the cycle of birth and death, and achieve the eternal Taoist body."
"It is better to prolong life than to shorten it; it is better to maintain health and avoid fighting to the death; to form good relationships will lead to a good death, and to sow good causes will lead to good results..."
"Don't seek victory, don't be stubborn, be calm and do nothing, sit back and watch the ebb and flow of the world of immortality, and absorb endless insights from the years..."
Yan Donglai was meticulous, taught and taught like a strict teacher, and very patient.
Lord Aoki was constantly gaining insights, and there were tears in his eyes.
Yes, the way he practiced Evergreen Gong in the past was wrong and inconsistent with Gu Mu's true intentions.
He was too hasty after all.
Lose your longevity, cultivate spiritual creatures, explore secret caves, and increase your combat power crazily.
After failing to advance to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, he sensed the threat from True Lord Evergreen and became greedy. He couldn't hold back and took the initiative to find the opponent for a decisive battle.
However, who can truly comply with Gu Mu's true intentions, not be in a hurry, and be able to endure loneliness?
The cultivation speed of this broken skill is slow, and the fighting method is not outstanding.
If Yimu Taoist's qualifications were to practice other wood-type techniques, he might be able to advance to the Nascent Soul stage earlier, and he has already been promoted to the middle stage.
Unfortunately, once you practice Evergreen Gong, there is no turning back.
If you want to change cultivation midway, then the life extension gained from the exercises will be returned to heaven and earth.
…
"Thank you, Master Yan, for your guidance. I am deeply grateful."
Lord Aoki bowed his head.
He added: "In the battle of Changqing, I am really not willing to lose to Lu Changqing. That Lu Changqing is suspected to be the reincarnation of a great power, and his soul is far beyond the same level. At that time, I thought he was the reincarnation of Master Yan."
Lord Aoki knows that he may not be able to escape today.
The only chance of survival may be to gain Yan Donglai's appreciation and favor and become his disciple.
He was so unlucky that even bumping into Yan Donglai in Tianhe Prefecture would not make things easier for Lu Changqing.
Unexpectedly, when Yan Donglai heard the information that Lu Changqing was suspected of being a "mighty reincarnation", he didn't react at all.
Yan Dong came to know Qingmu's intentions, and any trace of appreciation he had for this person suddenly disappeared.
He silently speculated whether "Lu Changqing", another Changqing disciple, could bring surprises.
Yan Donglai's expression changed subtly, from a little stunned to dumbfounded laughter.
"The Nascent Soul Great Monk who does not belong to this era..."
Yan Donglai murmured, with deep eyes and a broad smile on his face.
Good boy!
How dare you pretend to be someone named Yan.
Even if he is the true successor of the Holy Land, he would not dare to pretend to be his name and cheat.
Yan Donglai's smile faded, his eyes were fixed on Zhenjun Qingmu's face again, and he calmly said:
"Little friend Qingmu, do you have any wishes or regrets? Yan will help you fulfill them."
Hearing this, Lord Aoki's face was shocked and his body froze.
Tears of sadness flowed from his eyes uncontrollably, and his voice trembled slightly:
"I have only one wish, and that is -"
As Lord Aoki spoke, he secretly channeled his entire life's mana, activated the forbidden secret technique, and launched a self-destruction blow.
The self-destructing body was so close at hand that the great monk Yuanying was caught off guard and could not ignore it.
Only in this way can he create a glimmer of hope for his Nascent Soul to escape from the body.
However, the moment he activated his magic power.
My mind was in a trance.
Yan Donglai had already come to him, like a stern teacher, he put his palm on the Tianling Cap and patted it gently as a warning.
In an instant, the magic power in Zhenjun Qingmu's body lost control, the Evergreen Nascent Soul trembled instinctively, and his consciousness was imprisoned in the abyss of despair.
There is no resistance.
No matter when Lord Aoki resists, in front of the cave or inside the cave, the outcome is already doomed.
"Little friend Aoki, apart from the fact that your cultivation method is not suitable, your luck and luck are far behind."
Yan Donglai spoke in a gentle tone and placed his palms on the top of True Lord Aoki's head.
Whoosh!
A small cyan Nascent Soul figure that looks like a ginseng fruit floats out from the Tianling Cover without struggling.
A strong aura of the cycle of time enveloped the two of them.
Lord Aoki's face, body, and even his Nascent Soul are withering and aging at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In a few breaths, Lord Aoki lost his vitality and transformed from a young man into an octogenarian, with a large number of black age spots appearing on the dry skin on his face.
The moment before death.
Qingmu Zhenjun suddenly understood why the "Eternal Green Technique" had no effect on such a large state boundary as Tianhe Prefecture.
"Bishan Sect...Junior Sister Tian..."
Before the death of his soul, Lord Aoki made his last voice.
"Thank you, little friend Aoki, for the gift."
Yan Donglai's complexion was full, and his appearance changed from the ancient and old man to ten years younger.
The skin is delicate and shiny, giving it a childlike appearance.
After sorting out the corpse and belongings of True Lord Aoki, Yan Donglai did not take possession of them.
Looking at the delicate and rosy palms, he felt no pleasure and let out a long sigh.
Only he could detect it, deep within his flesh, exuding a rotten and ominous aura.
There is no regret medicine in the world.
Ever since he swallowed the first Evergreen Dao Fruit and his mana and lifespan greatly increased, he has embarked on this path of no return.
…
Yan Donglai tidied his hair and robes meticulously, leaving no wrinkles or dust.
Stepping on a cloud of blue clouds, flying out of Blue River Fairy Square, Yan Donglai looked in a certain direction.
"The two potential seeds of Tianyi Jiu's disciples chose to fight in Tianhe State, where I live and sleep?"
Yan Donglai pondered whether this was a coincidence or whether that person had some intention.
In the Tianheng human world, no one knows "Tianyi Shenjun" better than him.
Fortunately, Yan Donglai is not a god-turned-celestial king, so there is no need to worry about that.
He had dealt with Tianyi Shenjun, who was a higher generation in history, and had a good relationship and a certain degree of friendship.
However, each generation of Tianyi God Lord has different temperaments.
The present generation of Heavenly God Lord, and even the next generation of Heavenly God Lord, may not necessarily accept the old score.
Yan Donglai calculated the time and found that the contemporary Tianyi Divine Lord had only a hundred years or so left before his life span expired, and no more than two hundred years at most.
This means that the existing God-incarnated Heavenly Lord will face the terrifying darkest moment of the "Heavenly Tribulation".
Thinking of this, Yan Donglai was in a rare good mood and showed an expression of gloating.
…
Tianhe Prefecture, a branch of the Tongtian River, in a secret valley.
The silver clouds fell and turned into a mysterious man wearing a green silk shirt, ancient armor lining, and light blue eyes.
If Lu Changan were here, he would definitely be able to identify this person.
It was the other one of the two dragons in the Great Abyss, Jing Wufeng.
At this moment, Jing Wufeng was no longer as leisurely as before, and his expression looked solemn.
"At the end of the second round of trials, we can no longer avoid the battle."
"That woman is a powerful reincarnation and was born with the Baolian Taoist body. Not only is she fast in cultivation, her fighting skills are also extremely terrifying. If she is allowed to advance to the late Nascent Soul stage, there will be no fun in this Tianyi trial."
Jing Wufeng felt a headache and lamented his bad luck.
In the trial of Tianyi's nine disciples, every one of them is a monster, and fighting over levels is commonplace.
In the first round of trials, each disciple has a difficult task, no less than Dayuan's journey to seal the demon.
For such a difficult task, only one person was eliminated in the first round!
In the second round, the eight disciples will compete in pairs, and the winner will return to Tianyimen to enter the final test.
There is also a rule. In the second round of duel, the first person to advance to the late stage of Nascent Soul can also win.
Jing Wufeng was unlucky. The opponent he encountered was one of the best potential seeds in this Tianyi trial.
That "True Lord Baolian" surpassed him in both magical cultivation and magical power.
This is because Jing Wufeng achieved a very high evaluation in the demon-sealing task in the first round of trials. During his return to the sect to practice, he received an additional commendation from his master, which greatly improved his cultivation strength.
That extra reward is due to the unexpected risks of the demon sealing mission and the variables from the Demon Peak Realm.
Even so, in this century-old duel, Jing Wufeng was completely at a disadvantage.
Fortunately, he learned how to be stubborn, either tolerating or running away, quietly stealing growth.
If Baolian Zhenjun is focused on practicing in seclusion, Jing Wufeng will use tricks to harass him; if the opponent comes to kill him, he will fight and retreat, waiting for an opportunity to escape.
The rules of the trial are that both sides sense each other's approximate directions. The winner is the one who makes the opponent admit defeat, or die, and lose the ability to resist.
Jing Wufeng took advantage of the rules to the extreme and maintained the high mobility of his spatial magical power to this day, which made the Jurchen quite annoyed.
Now that the trial is coming to an end, Jing Wufeng has developed to the extreme.
He set up an ambush in this valley, preparing to fight hard, no longer evade, and have a showdown with the woman!
…
Daqing East Region.
Liang Guo, Jinyun Valley.
Lu Changan, who was practicing in seclusion, felt a sense of panic in his heart.
"This feeling..."
Lu Changan opened his eyes, and the feeling of heart palpitations disappeared in a flash.
This was the first time he felt this way since the Demon Sealing War in Dayuan.
He took out a few divination items, and Lu Changan predicted bad luck.
As a result, everything was normal and no clues were found.
The feeling just now seemed to be just an illusion.
However, Lu Changan has many years of running experience and believes in his own intuition as a fourth-level fortune teller.
"Practice for a period of time, and your magical power will reach a higher level. Looking at the land of Daqing, who can pose a real threat to Ben Zhenjun?"
Lu Changan gave up divination and continued normal speculation.
The first cultivator of the two paths of good and evil? That human-faced dragon in the Black Mist Mountains?
Lu Changan quickly shook his head.
If he goes out alone, the threat does exist.
However, he stayed in Jinyun Valley, protected by the fourth-level formation, and another Nascent Soul strongman in the sect was in charge of the incomplete fake spirit treasure.
Even if the Yuanying Great Monk comes in person, it will be difficult to attack them head-on.
Check out the correct version one by one!
After thinking for a while, Lu Changan took out the frozen corpse of Lord Aoki.
During the past sixty years of seclusion, he would use it as a medium to track and sense the location of Lord Aoki in his spare time.
If Aoki comes back secretly, he will find out immediately.
"This...Aoki's destiny has disappeared!"
Lu Changan was shocked and felt uneasy again.
In fact, the information related to Aoki was obscured by a mysterious secret.
However, the causal connection between Lu Changan and Qingmu's body was too strong to be completely covered up.
"True Lord Aoki has fallen. It would be fine if he died from other monks and unknown risks..."
Lu Changan had reason to suspect that True Lord Aoki might have met a "fellow sect".
Although Lord Aoki has lost his magic weapon to protect his path, his self-protection ability is still strong, and there is nothing he can do about it when he is in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
At least it has to be close to the supernatural power of the great monk of Nascent Soul to completely obliterate it. Even the Nascent Soul cannot escape from the body.
Lu Changan's expression changed from gloomy to bright. Although the palpitations no longer existed and he could not guess where the crisis was, he had already made a decision in his heart.
…
Lu Changan stood up and stopped practicing.
The auricles of his ears suddenly swelled and beat frequently, greatly increasing his perception.
At this moment, no disturbance in or around Jinyun Valley could escape his [Poseidon Listening Ear].
"Shenjun Qingmu is far away in Tianhe Prefecture. Even if he is the God-incarnated Heavenly Lord, he cannot reach Daqing so quickly."
Lu Changan breathed a sigh of relief, and his ears quickly returned to normal size.
In the past sixty years, he has strengthened his magical powers and developed the "Listening to the Sea God's Ear" of Tinghai Pavilion.
This magical power requires parts from legendary beasts and sea monsters, as well as secret recipes, and can only be mastered after a long period of refinement.
Lu Changan fought in two major realms and gained a rich fortune. It took him many years of preparation before he gathered together the materials and secret medicine to cultivate this magical power to a small degree.
If you want better cultivation effects and reach higher levels, it is best to be near the sea.
[Listen to Poseidon Ears] can greatly enhance your hearing senses, including your sense of danger.
Coupled with the intuition of a fourth-level fortune teller, Lu Changan was able to capture crises from distant lands.
"Mr. Xuan Shui, prepare to go out."
Lu Changan came to the secret underground palace beneath the Evergreen Peak Dojo.
A large dark blue turtle, more than ten feet tall, was perched next to the Xuantian gourd vine, breathing in the cold water spirit energy.
About thirty years ago, Xuan Shui Turtle survived the catastrophe of transformation and was promoted to the rank of fourth-level demon king.
The Xuan Shui Turtle is good at defense, imitating Lu Changan's past tribulations, using its turtle shell to receive the baptism of thunder from the sky.
This turtle has a simple heart and does not have the complex desires of human monks. The difficulty of the inner demon calamity is relatively low.
Coupled with the protection of [Ethereal Spirit Fragrance] and the advance simulation of the devil's secret method, the inner demon tribulation was successfully passed.
Lu Changan has another fourth-level spiritual pet, which alarms all the surrounding forces.
The Wei Dao Alliance and the Beast King Valley no longer doubt that Lu Changan has the secret of beast control, otherwise the two spiritual pets will be promoted to the fourth level. This success rate is really scary.
Unfortunately, given Lu Changan's powerful position in the world of immortality, no one can covet his secrets.
Although the Xuan Shui Turtle was promoted to the fourth level, it did not transform. It maintained the form of a giant turtle, but its size was even larger.
This situation is not unique in the world of immortality.
Some special races, or rare birds and animals with high bloodline talents, can still not transform even if they reach the fourth level.
"Master, are you going on a long trip?"
A deep and honest voice came from the giant turtle.
"Yes! Let's go to Fengguo Aoyue Palace first and meet up with Lord Diyan."
Lu Changan waved his hand and collected the Xuantian Gourd Vine that was continuously filled with earth energy.
Before leaving, he asked Lord Xuanshui to activate the water of Xuanming and wash it over repeatedly in the vicinity without leaving any traces or abnormal smell.
After doing this, Lu Changan tidied up in the cave, then rode the giant black water turtle and rode the wind and waves away.
"The Evergreen True Lord has come out of seclusion!"
"The fourth-level spirit turtle mount is such a grand display!"
Up and down Jinyun Valley, many monks were watching, showing admiration and yearning.
With such a big commotion and scene, no one thought that this famous Evergreen True Lord would run away once again.
Zhang Tianfeng was also alarmed and walked out of the cave. Looking at the handsome and handsome man in white on the fourth-order spirit turtle, he felt a little envious.
"Take care, fellow Taoist Zhang! Lu will return to Jinyun Valley someday. I hope we can have a good time over wine."
Lu Changan left a message in the message and left on the turtle breaking the wind.
"Friend Lu Dao, what are you..."
Zhang Tianfeng felt that it was too sudden and wanted to ask the reason and discuss the funeral arrangements, but Lu Changan did not want to say another word.
It seems that saying a few more words will bring unpredictable risks.
…
The fourth-level black turtle entered the Feng Kingdom and approached the Proud Moon Palace.
From a long distance away, Lu Changan sensed a violent fluctuation and increase in the power of the earthly demon.
"Master, Lord Diyan is in the middle of the fourth level of impact?"
Mr. Xuanshui said in a loud voice.
"Well, it failed again."
Lu Changan's expression remained as usual as he came to the clouds above Aoyue Palace.
As expected, the fiercely rising Earth Demon power quickly lost its stamina and fell down after touching the boundary of the mid-fourth level.
In the past sixty years, this was Diyanjun's second attempt to hit the middle stage of the fourth level, but it ended in failure.
"The mouse has failed its owner."
Aoyue Palace, Level 4 Spirit Vein Dojo, Diyan Lord looked pale and looked decadent.
It turned into a streak of earthy yellow light and flew to the clouds, not daring to look directly into Lu Changan's eyes.
"No need to force it! By becoming a fourth-level demon king, you have already done your best for your tribe."
Lu Changan smiled and waved, letting Mr. Diyan sit on the turtle's back.
He used Evergreen's magic power and touched the hair on Diyanjun's head to resolve the backlash internal injuries caused by the failed advancement.
It’s time to heal Mr. Diyan.
Xia Wenyue, wearing a white dress, also flew above the clouds.
"In such a hurry? Why don't you go sit down below?"
Xia Wenyue's picturesque dark eyebrows frowned slightly, and her cold tone seemed to contain resentment.
"I won't do it this time! My husband has something urgent and I have to go on a long trip."
Lu Changan didn't say much.
While on the road, he speculated on the sudden sense of crisis.
If the potential crisis is Yan Donglai, then everything makes sense.
Thanks to Jing Wufeng's revelation of the "Millennium Catastrophe" back then, he quickly made the connection and did not hesitate for a moment.
"Husband..."
Xia Wenyue had a vague premonition and guessed that Lu Changan was going to run away again and it would take him who knows how many years to return.
Looking at Xia Xianzi who was still trying to speak but seemed a little confused.
Lu Changan smiled and comforted: "Wenyue, Aoyue Palace cannot leave you, run the sect well."
Thinking back to those days, when Xia Wenyue had just been promoted to Nascent Soul, she felt grateful and once said to him: "When my husband runs away next time, can you take me with you?"
Today is different from the past.
Xia Wenyue is completely bound to Aoyue Palace and is closely related to each other.
She joined Aoyue Palace very early, and the years she spent cultivating and growing up here far exceeded the time she spent with Lu Changan.
"Husband, Wen Yue will be waiting for your return at Aoyue Palace."
Xia Wenyue breathed a sigh of relief and solemnly promised.
"good."
Lu Changan waved his hand, showed no regrets, and flew away in the fourth-order spirit turtle.
In fact, he didn't really want to take Fairy Xia away.
After all, in the distant abyss, there is a Nascent Soul Fairy with peerless elegance and close relationship.
…
A few days later.
Lu Changan arrived at the Seven Nations Alliance as quickly as possible.
Today, the Seven-Nation Alliance is also in a period of armistice and recuperation.
Qi State, deep in the forbidden land of Jueyuan.
Lu Changan came to the stalactite crypt that he had not seen for a long time and listened to the location of the Haige teleportation array.
He waved the formation flag, and the large water formation of Tinghai Pavilion that enveloped this place opened.
Buzz!
A twisted dark blue water swirl lit up, surrounded by four concentrated deep water drops, which served as the base of the formation, absorbing the water vapor and earth evil turbidity near the underground river.
Lu Changan checked and confirmed that the teleportation array and space channel were not damaged.
The green-armored puppet where Master Wei was, stepped into the deep blue water whirlpool first, shuttled through the space passage, and reached the other section of the great abyss.
Then came Mr. Diyan, who also stepped into the teleportation channel.
Lu Changan secretly thought that if Diyanjun was promoted to the middle stage of the fourth level, the risk of traveling through the space passage would inevitably increase.
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Changan gritted his teeth resolutely, took out a few fourth-level spiritual talismans, left a regularly activated seal, and pasted it on the stone wall around the teleportation array.
Everything is ready.
Before leaving, Lu Changan looked back at Daqing deeply.
The last time he returned to Daqing, he was 412 years old.
This time I am preparing to leave. I am 513 years old, which means it has been a hundred years.
He had a hunch that his departure would be longer this time.
At least before he was promoted to the late Nascent Soul stage, he had no sense of security facing Yan Donglai.
In fact, Lu Changan still had some troubles to deal with in Daqing.
He originally planned to cultivate to the peak of the early stage of Nascent Soul and kill one or two Nascent Soul monks in the Beast King Valley to make the future of the Guardian Alliance more stable.
The great elder of the Valley of the Beast King, whose natal silkworm is "resurrected from cocoon" once in a hundred years, is in a vacuum period.
At this stage, Lu Changan teamed up with Chu Tianfeng and Zhang Tianfeng to hopefully kill him completely.
Unexpectedly, the Great Elder of Beast King Valley did not go out at all for several decades after the Demonic War, and remained in a semi-sealed dormant state.
This old fox didn't give him a chance at all, and Lu Changan couldn't do anything either.
As for True Lord Wanhe, his lifespan has reached its limit, and there is no need for Lu Changan to take action.
In addition, there are further plans, such as the plot against Wu Mian, the other half of Wu Jian Sect.
Unfortunately, the plan could not keep up with the changes.
True Lord Qingmu died, and the potential crisis from Yan Donglai made Lu Changan dare not stay in Daqing for a moment longer.
"Farewell Daqing..."
Lu Changan made up his mind that he would not consider coming back until he became a great monk of Nascent Soul.
He no longer hesitated and stepped into the Tinghai Pavilion teleportation array. His body was engulfed in a swirl of deep blue light.
After a while.
There was a loud "boom" sound.
Several fourth-level talismans attached around the teleportation array were activated on time, and the terrifying fire and thunder turned the surrounding materials into burnt black powder. The four sea-suppressing beads as the base of the array exploded, triggering a monstrous tsunami, accompanied by a twisted space ripple.
Annihilate and flatten the area where the teleportation array is located.
