"Chen Zongyu." Xu Zhuang said calmly: "This is the first time we have met."
Seeing the conversation between the two, Dong Guoyi took two steps back and turned around the corner of the cave.
"Not bad." Chen Zongyu said hoarsely twice. Although his voice was hoarse, there was no pain in his tone. He responded calmly: "I didn't expect you to come to see me. What, are you here to see my joke?"
Xu Zhuang did not respond. He looked at Chen Zongyu and said, "You are much more embarrassed than I thought."
Chen Zongyu has long ceased to be human, and his flesh and blood have melted into mud, hanging on his body with difficulty. White bones can be seen everywhere. Occasionally, there are flashes of light, and he is struggling to maintain the speed of life passing by.
But his tone was still calm, and he said calmly: "I have long been accustomed to being embarrassed, so a mere body is nothing."
"Oh?" Xu Zhuang said, "Then why don't you lure the Outer Demon Lord down to the lower realm? It doesn't matter if you give up the body anyway."
"Hahahaha." Chen Zongyu laughed loudly and said: "I, Chen Zongyu, have fallen to this day. I am not harmed by evil spirits. If I die, I will die. Why should I sacrifice my body to nourish the evil enemies?"
"What's more, what if I lure the Demon Lord down to the lower realm? This is the Taisu Zongzong, what kind of trouble can it cause? Doing such a meaningless thing only makes me, Chen Zongyu, look unbearable."
"Sure enough, what you hear is false and what you see is belief." Xu Zhuang said calmly, "In my opinion, senior brother is not as bad as the rumors."
"Oh..." Hearing that Xu Zhuang changed his name to his senior brother, Chen Zongyu laughed again, raised his eyes and looked at Xu Zhuang carefully, and said in surprise: "Xu Zhuang, I see that your mind is pure... It seems that the devil was outside that day. , it didn’t cause you any trouble.”
Xu Zhuang said: "Why, does it make senior brother feel that what he did is meaningless?"
"My life has no meaning in the first place. All I can do is repay Chen Lian's little friendship before I die." Chen Zongyu said nonchalantly: "Okay, Xu Zhuang, you didn't come here just to take a look at me. It’s miserable.”
Xu Zhuang said calmly: "I originally had a lot to ask, but now it seems that it doesn't make much sense."
He originally thought that Chen Zongyu should have been infected by a demon seed, and had even taken away the house for the demon lord outside that day, but now it seems that is not the case.
Chen Zongyu said hoarsely: "You can ask as many questions as you like, but whether you answer or not depends on my mood."
Xu Zhuang snorted softly and asked: "What is the origin of the Great Zizi Xuanjun Liu Miao Yu Zhuo Emperor?"
Chen Zongyu was not surprised and replied: "I knew this question would come up, but I may not know much more than you do. The Emperor Xuanjun Liu Miao Yuzhuo of Great Freedom should be an invisible demon lord outside the Xuanhuang Realm. I have been eyeing the Xuanhuang Realm for a long time."
Xu Zhuang frowned and said: "It seems that these demon lords from outside the world are peeking into this world, why don't the real Yuanshen take action to eliminate them?"
Chen Zongyu laughed and said: "How can I know what Master Yuanshen thinks? Why don't you just ask Master Yuanhua directly."
Xu Zhuang was not worried and said calmly: "I will carefully consider senior brother's suggestion. I have one last question, so I won't bother senior brother anymore."
Chen Zongyu said indifferently: "Just ask."
Xu Zhuang asked: "I heard that senior brother's golden elixir was broken when Zhong Shenxiu was practicing. Is Zhong Shenxiu really so powerful?"
Hearing this question, Chen Zongyu was suddenly startled, and then laughed nonstop. He stopped for a long time, and was almost unable to make a sound. He tried his best to say: "Xu Zhuang, do you also want to compete with Zhong Shenxiu?"
"Never mind, I'll tell you the truth." Chen Zongyu said solemnly, "No matter whether I lost to Zhong Shenxiu because of the evil spirits, carelessness, or conceitedness, it was still Zhong Shenxiu who really had supreme talent and ability. With a mere practice of cultivation, he created a storm in the hands of high-grade golden elixirs."
Xu Zhuang's expression condensed and he listened attentively to Chen Zongyu: "I tell you, when Zhong Shenxiu was practicing, he had already practiced Taoism to the fourth level, and even reached the fifth level. Do you know him? Is it great?"
"What?" Xu Zhuang was slightly shocked.
Taoist cultivation can be divided into nine realms. There is no saying that which realm requires a monk to practice it. But having said that, Taoist practice will eventually become more difficult the higher you go.
Is the understanding and wisdom of the alchemy monks and the golden elixir monks the same?
For ordinary Taoist monks to practice an ordinary Taoist skill to the fourth level, it will take at least decades of dedicated practice, but for the Golden Pill monks, it takes several years, or even decades. It can be completed within a month.
What's more, there is a lifespan difference between the Golden elixir cultivator and the Dharma refining cultivator? How can the same years have the same meaning to both?
This coming and going has created a 'normal situation' in which only those who have reached the golden elixir realm and a very small number of alchemy monks who feel that there is no hope of refining the golden elixir can practice fourth-level Taoism.
This is already the case for fourth-level Taoism, let alone fifth-level Taoism. Can an ordinary practicing monk spend his entire life cultivating a Taoism to the fifth level? At least Xu Zhuang never heard of this.
According to Xu Zhuang's knowledge, it only took a few decades for Zhong Shenxiu to refine the high-grade golden elixir. If he really practiced Taoism to the fourth level during his spare time, Even possessing fifth-level Taoism, what kind of terrifying talent and understanding is that?
But now that he has achieved a high-grade golden elixir, or even a great golden elixir, and has magical powers, what state has he reached?
Xu Zhuang's expectations for Zhong Shenxiu were already high enough, but the fact is that Zhong Shenxiu is even more powerful than Xu Zhuang expected.
Xu Zhuang collected his thoughts, let out a sigh of relief, cupped his hands and said, "I understand, thank you, senior brother, for informing me."
Chen Zongyu nodded slightly.
Xu Zhuang was silent for a moment and then said: "Senior brother, I shouldn't be able to survive two or three months in this world of suffering."
Chen Zongyu said: "Not bad."
"Between life and death, there is great terror." Xu Zhuang sighed, "Senior brother, I can still regard death as nothing today, but what about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow?"
Chen Zongyu laughed and said: "Xu Zhuang, I have done you a lot of harm. It will be hard to calm your heart until I die. Just do it!"
Xu Zhuang shook his head and said: "I won't do this, but I can help senior brother."
"What……?"
Xu Zhuang reached into his sleeve and took out the Ming Zun Elephant. With a slight sway, a clear light shone on Chen Zongyu. Chen Zongyu was shocked all over.
"This method can help senior brother avoid being disturbed by evil spirits, and it should be effective for three months."
Of course, it also eliminates the possibility of Chen Zongyu being possessed by the devil from outside the world and even taking away the house.
Xu Zhuang said calmly: "Senior brother, please maintain your state of mind today until your death."
"Hahahahahahaha!...Haha...hahahahahaha!" Chen Zongyu laughed maniacally and hissed: "So...that's how it is...good! Xu Zhuang, I count you and me..."
Chen Zongyu's intermittent voice was still coming from the cave. Xu Zhuang was too lazy to listen. He walked out of the cave in a few steps. When Dong Guoyi saw him coming out, he cupped his hands and said, "Senior brother, have you finished your work?"
Xu Zhuang nodded slightly and responded: "Junior brother, we can leave this world."
Dongguo Yi said: "Good." He stretched out his hand and took out the clear light talisman. It shook slightly and turned into a ray of light. It rolled up the two of them and suddenly rushed into the sky. They flew to a secret place and went out. One jump.
Feeling like they were out of the water again, the two immediately jumped out of the pool and returned to the Mountains of the Bitter Realm.
Xu Zhuang looked up and saw a clear blue sky at the entrance of the cave. He sighed slightly, cupped his hands towards Dong Guoyi and said, "Junior brother, I would also like to thank you for opening the door to facilitate this trip. Do you need any cooperation in the future?" of?"
Dong Guoyi smiled and said: "No need, no need to bother senior brother, I will make arrangements for him."
Xu Zhuang said: "Xu Zhuang will not forget the kindness of my junior brother. In the future, you can often go and sit at Chongyun Peak when you have time."
Dong Guoyi laughed and said: "With these words from senior brother, I am satisfied!"
Xu Zhuang bowed his hands again and said, "Then Xu will leave first."
Dong Guoyi stretched out his hand and said, "Please."
Xu Zhuang nodded, not intending to ride on the wind again, so he stood up from the ground and turned into a startling rainbow, flying out of the cave entrance and heading straight to the sky.
