Ling Lao and Qi Feihong decided to take a break. They sat opposite each other. Ling Lao said slowly: "Feihong, do you know a legend? The legend about the King of the Nine Realms."
Qi Feihong shook his head blankly: "King of the Nine Realms? Who can be the King of the Nine Realms? Each of the Nine Realms has its own master. To be the King of the Nine Realms, doesn't it mean that you have to be an enemy of everyone in the Nine Realms? I don't want the consequences. I know it must be miserable.”
Ling Lao smiled: "The King of the Nine Realms I am talking about is not the Lord of the Nine Realms in the true sense. It is just an honor, just like the title that people often say is the best in the world."
Qi Feihong smiled and said: "I haven't heard of it either. I don't know what the King of Nine Realms is."
Ling Lao said: "This is a legend. It is said that a long time ago, the nine realms were in chaos, with frequent wars between each other, and the living beings were miserable. At that time, a person appeared, the one I just mentioned, the Nine Realms. King, we must prevent this from happening. The King of the Nine Realms is powerful and unrivaled among the Nine Realms. In order to save the lives of the Nine Realms, he called all the Lords of the Nine Realms together to discuss a truce and let all souls recuperate. .”
Qi Feihong listened carefully and knew that Ling Lao had not finished what he said, so he couldn't help but ask: "What happened next? Did the King of the Nine Realms persuade the Lord of the Nine Realms?"
Ling Lao shook his head slightly: "Some of the masters of the Nine Realms are warlike people. Naturally they did not agree to the truce, and even made rude remarks to the King of the Nine Realms. The King of the Nine Realms' persuasion was ineffective, and seeing that everyone was not convinced by him, he decided to use The most primitive and direct way to solve the problem. He single-handedly challenged the Lords of the Nine Realms and fought for several months to force all the Lords of the Nine Realms to agree to a truce."
Speaking of this, Mr. Ling became a little more excited and his voice became louder: "It is said that the ten of them fought so hard that the sky was dark and the stars were broken into pieces... The king of the nine realms was so powerful that he finally defeated the nine realms. The Lord of the Nine Realms forced the Lord of the Nine Realms to sign an agreement to never start a war. From then on, the Nine Realms were peaceful. The creatures of the Nine Realms were grateful to the King of the Nine Realms for his great kindness and spontaneously regarded him as the King of the Nine Realms to show their respect. "
Qi Feihong didn't know why Mr. Ling suddenly mentioned this. He felt strange and asked: "What happened next? Where did the King of the Nine Realms go? We have never heard of the King of the Nine Realms. Could it be that he retired after his achievements?" , Hidden away from the world?"
Ling Lao sighed, with a sad look on his face, and said slowly: "The King of the Nine Realms mysteriously disappeared shortly after that battle, and his whereabouts are unknown. Some people say that he was killed by several Lords of the Nine Realms together, and destroyed The corpse disappeared forever. Some people said that in order to avoid the pursuit of the Lord of the Nine Realms, he chose to hide in the world. Others said that he was seriously injured during the battle with the Lord of the Nine Realms and died... In short He disappeared, and no one knew where he was. Over time, the world gradually forgot about him, and most of you, the younger generation, don’t know his existence.”
Qi Feihong nodded slightly and said with some emotion: "For the sake of the creatures in the Nine Realms, he offended the Lord of the Nine Realms. This person may indeed be killed by the Lord of the Nine Realms... But his strength is incredible, even if he is the Lord of the Nine Realms. If several of them join forces, it will be difficult to kill him, unless he is really injured and his strength is greatly reduced... Why did Mr. Ling suddenly talk about these things today? Do you have something to say to me? "
Ling Lao smiled slightly: "I have nothing to do. I am just chatting and have no other meaning. Feihong, I always feel that the King of the Nine Realms cares about the common people and is a man of great mercy. Every time I think of his deeds, I can't help but I sighed. Now that the Nine Realms are peaceful, it is all the result of the King of the Nine Realms. Those of us who are cultivators of immortality should be grateful to the King of the Nine Realms and remember the kindness of the King of the Nine Realms."
Qi Feihong said: "The King of the Nine Realms is indeed admirable and worthy of being remembered by our generation. But after his disappearance, there were still wars in the Nine Realms, with people devastated and families destroyed... Tens of thousands of years ago, there was a war between the Immortal Realm and the Immortal Realm Realm. , there were countless casualties. If several patron saints of the world of immortality had not come together to prevent the Immortal King from causing chaos, I am afraid that our world of immortality would no longer exist."
Old Ling nodded slightly: "I know a little bit about this matter. Although I rarely leave the Soul Gathering Pearl, I am occasionally attracted by the major events happening outside and go out to have a look. The battle between the immortal world and the immortal world you mentioned, I went out to take a look out of curiosity. If the patron saint of the world of immortality hadn't taken action at that time, the world of immortality might have been destroyed by the Immortal King. The Immortal King had a deep hatred for the world of immortality and wanted to destroy it."
Qi Feihong said: "That's right, so the peace agreement that the King of the Nine Realms forced the Lord of the Nine Realms to sign has long since expired. I really hope that there will be another King of the Nine Realms who can restore peace to the Nine Realms and there will be no more wars. "
Ling Lao said: "That's not necessarily the case. Although the matter at that time was settled by the patron saint of the world of immortality, if there had not been a peace agreement signed by the King of the Nine Realms and the Lord of the Nine Realms, I am afraid that other interfaces would have taken action at that time. To deal with the world of immortality. If that is the case, even if the guardian saints of the world of immortality take action, it will be difficult to protect the world of immortality."
Qi Feihong nodded: "That's true. Most of the creatures in the world of immortality are not very strong. Facing such a powerful opponent as the world of immortality, it is really difficult to protect the world of immortality."
Ling Lao smiled and said: "Don't underestimate the Immortal Cultivation World. Among the nine realms, the Cultivation Immortal World's strength ranks high, which is not very bad."
Qi Feihong asked curiously: "There are still strength rankings in the Nine Realms? I have never heard of this."
Ling Lao said: "Want to know? I can tell you. The world of gods, immortals, cultivators, demons, monsters, underworld, spiritual world, mortal world, and the mysterious world of chaos. The top one is the god world, because there are people living in it. There are many true gods, and their strength is the highest among the nine realms. Followed by the fairy world and the demon world. The strength of these two realms is similar, but some people think that the demon world is stronger because the demon cultivator is difficult to kill. The third one is It is the world of cultivating immortals. The comprehensive strength of the world of cultivating immortals ranks third among the nine realms. Because there are masters of the realm of true immortals, it is not bad. The underworld, demon world, and spirit world rank fourth. Although these three realms have true immortals, There are masters in the realm of immortals, but their numbers are few and they are weaker than those in the realm of immortality. The strength of the mortal realm is the worst, the number of cultivators in the realm is rare, and their realm is very low... Because the realm of chaos is too mysterious, no one knows whether there are living beings. At the time of ranking It wasn’t taken into account.”
Qi Feihong smiled: "When did this ranking happen? Why do I feel like it was a long time ago, and it seems a little inconsistent with reality?"
Ling Lao smiled and said: "It is true that this ranking was taken a long time ago, but the changes in the strength of the Nine Realms are very small. Even if many, many years have passed, it will still be the same."
Qi Feihong nodded: "That's true. The Nine Realms are too big, and the changes in strength have always been subtle, and it is difficult to make big changes in rankings. After listening to Elder Ling's words today, Feihong's horizons have broadened a lot."
Ling Lao laughed and said: "That's because the world of immortality has been closed for too long, and few people have mentioned the things outside, so you younger generations don't know about it. If it were in the past, people in the world of immortality could go to other worlds at will, and they could meet at any time. You won’t feel this way when you look at living beings from other realms.”
Qi Feihong seemed to understand something and asked: "Does Elder Ling think that it is wrong for the world of immortality to seal the passage from the outside world?"
Ling Lao said: "How to put it, at least I don't think it is right. No matter which world you are in, only when you face challenges can you have the opportunity to make progress. If the world of immortality continues to be closed like this, it will destroy itself sooner or later. It is not a good thing for anyone, in any era, to be too comfortable, at least it is not good for one’s own progress.”
Qi Feihong thought about it and couldn't help but nod, actually agreeing with Ling Lao's concept. This was impossible before. After all, Qi Feihong knew about the grievances between the immortal world and the immortal world, and he did not want to start a war between the immortal world and the immortal world, causing the destruction of all living beings.
Self-isolation can temporarily avoid some fights and protect one's own creatures from being harmed. This is beneficial in the short term. However, if we are self-isolated for a long time and live in comfort for too long, creatures will lose competitive pressure and development motivation, and it is really possible that they will gradually regress, which will be harmful.
Previously, Yu Wenxian's Red Dragon Kingdom had closed off contact with the outside world. Over time, the army's combat effectiveness became weak and even vulnerable. At that time, they were attacked by the coalition forces of Lu Hao and the Immortal Golden Immortal, and they were almost destroyed, which is enough to prove this point.
Although Qi Feihong had abdicated in favor of someone worthy of his honour, he still cared about the safety of the Qilin Kingdom and the world of immortality. After listening to Ling Lao's words, he suddenly thought of a lot. If he hadn't been in the spiritual eye now and had no skills, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to help but go to see Li Tianxing, Yu Wenxian and Jin Xing, and warn them not to be dragged down by the comfortable life, but to continue to strengthen the army's combat effectiveness and stay vigilant.
Of course, there are still Hui Ji and others in the world of immortals, as well as demonic cultivators who have no control over them and are causing chaos. People are still under pressure. For the time being, there should be no situation where they become too comfortable and lose their fighting spirit.
