Under that earth-shattering blow, the dark light and confusion formation was completely destroyed, and the huge fluctuations shook the vast sea instantly.
The torrential rain fell suddenly, and a roar was set off on the sea surface. Huge whirlpools emerged one after another. The whirlpools were dark, like holes, leading to an unfathomable unknown place.
But the fog broke away, but the demon was nowhere to be seen.
The person who was in charge of the formation reacted very quickly and escaped without even the slightest intention of resisting.
However, it was not without a trace. Xu Zhuang squinted his eyes and saw a faint demonic energy flowing along a hole where spiritual inspiration was still flowing out, and he suddenly understood.
It seems that these demons are going to fight against each other in the eighteen layers of palaces.
Xu Zhuang was not surprised either. He withdrew his magical power and with a thought, Duxugong immediately ran away and broke into the hollow.
…
For just a moment, Xu Zhuang felt as if he had escaped from this world, and soon realized that he had entered a completely different world——
This place seems to be indistinguishable from pure to turbid, and is filled with vast clouds. They are all condensed with extremely rich spiritual energy. It is no wonder that the pouring out can make a party's spiritual energy boil and rise.
What's even more surprising is that the size of this square is simply unbelievable. Xu Zhuang Yuanshi tried his best to explore it, but he couldn't find the end at all.
This is beyond the ordinary concepts of cave heaven and small world. If the rules of heaven and earth were not unusual, it would be like a thousand worlds.
"Such great power..." Xu Zhuang was faintly touched in his heart.
During these days, in addition to practicing, he had many interactions with seniors such as Master Zhicheng and Taoist Shuxian, and gradually learned many secrets that were unknown when he first became a soul.
For some unknown reason, Taoist Shuxian knew a lot about him, and by chance, he even talked openly about the merits of heaven and man with him.
Pure Yang and Heavenly Immortal are two completely different realms, but after all, Pure Yang is eternal and will never even have an upper limit on growth.
In the ancient times, some Chunyang True Lords who had existed for an unknown length of time could not achieve anything in their pursuit of immortality, but they did not achieve nothing.
On the contrary, these beings with unimaginable wisdom, in the long years and endless pursuit of truth, found new ways and found the fruits of immortality.
These 'celestial and human achievements' are all unimaginable mysteries. Those who have achieved such achievements are already possessing some power comparable to that of gods——
Those who have the proof of change and endless use, no matter how they operate their magical powers or display their great power, they are not afraid of loss. They can devote all their strength at will, infinite, immeasurable, infinite... They have been freed from all kinds of constraints such as magic power, vitality, and even spiritual intelligence.
Those who have Zhengxuan Kankan and the laws of all things can create things out of nothing, create all things, and even create creatures. According to legend, many races in the world were born from this, and the Zhixing boy under the master Daochen, the long-lived stranger, is one of them.
However, although such aliens have extremely long lives, their cultivation qualifications are very low. Perhaps the creation of living beings must follow the principles of the Tao, otherwise the world will definitely have a race with supernatural powers and natural shortcuts.
But if there really is such a race, even though the universe is vast, it will never be without the slightest reputation. As far as Xu Zhuang knows, perhaps only the true dragon who was once born as a soul comes close to such an idea.
As for other heavenly and human achievements, even Xu Zhuang has seen that the ability to transcend time and escape from the constraints of time is naturally astonishingly powerful.
This is also the reason why some extremely ancient beings in the universe even dare to claim to be immortals.
If a being with such power could open up a vast world... it might not be impossible.
Xu Zhuang withdrew his consciousness and took a deep breath. According to the ancient legend, the Eighteenth Layer Que was opened by a person who had attained Xuankan's creation and the supreme power of the Dharma and all things. Now it seems that it is probably true.
Although he does not have much desire for foreign objects, if it is really created by such a person, will a spiritual object that is different from anything in the world contain unimaginable mysteries?
Xu Zhuang's thoughts turned around, and he suddenly became more distracted. With a sudden impulse, he galloped away from Duxu Palace.
Although this world is vast, there are still rich and thin spiritual opportunities. Xu Zhuang just rushed towards the place where the spiritual opportunities are infinite. After an unknown period of time, he suddenly felt that the surroundings were getting brighter. He opened his Dharma Eyes and looked around, and he suddenly felt refreshed.
High above the sea of clouds, a golden and bright Tianmen towers up. The bright light shines from inside, making the golden neon billowing and auspicious.
Xu Zhuang's eyes narrowed slightly. Through the Tianmen, the scene became illusory. He used his magic eyes to the extreme, but he could not see the real scene. Only another Tianmen appeared, and the details became clearer and clearer, and he could even see it again. , behind the Tianmen, there seems to be another cave...
The heavenly gates, one after another, form an extremely magnificent picture.
"So that's it, this is the Eighteenth Level Palace." Xu Zhuang said to himself.
He originally thought that the Eighteen Layers of Que were eighteen different caves and small realms, but he did not expect that there were realms within the realms and heavens outside the heavens.
As a result... I wonder where the Xiantian Demon Sect has arrived?
The overly strong inspiration seemed to dilute the demonic energy that was not obvious at first. Xu Zhuang had already found it difficult to trace it, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.
But in just a moment, he relaxed. Since he was here and would meet sooner or later, Xu Zhuang was not in a hurry.
Without seeing any movement from him, the power of Duxu Palace suddenly surged. At the same time, outside the palace, there were already a lot of precious lights lighting up, like golden clouds.
The Duxu Palace was originally a treasure that could be used to attack and defend, with endless magical uses, but it had never been revealed in Xu Zhuang's hands. Now Xu Zhuang has unlimited magical power, not to mention Yuan Zhen Yuan Jing, who can activate the operation of many formations. Even Master Yuanshen can do nothing easily.
After being fully prepared, Xu Zhuang went straight through the palace without any pause. Once he crossed the Tianmen, Xu Zhuang's eyes were shocked.
Just in case, the formation of Duxu Palace isolates the intersection between the inside and outside, making it difficult for even a trace of invisible energy to penetrate inside.
However, Xu Zhuang's consciousness never stopped operating. As soon as he approached the heavenly barrier, Xu Zhuang suddenly felt something in his heart.
The air in this world is filled with a kind of 'qi' that has never been seen or heard before.
This Qi is invisible, bodyless, tasteless, and extremely pale in color. Even a monk's Dharma eyes can hardly distinguish it. Only when it is condensed to the extreme will a hint of light green appear.
Xu Zhuang raised his hand and plucked it, condensing a light blue aura on his fingertips. He inhaled gently, and a strange color suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"This is..." Xu Zhuang couldn't help but said to himself. "Eighteen layers of palace, mortals can live forever if they enter it, it is actually not a lie."
"Taking it increases one's life, and bathing it brings longevity." Zhicheng Zhenren didn't know when he had finished adjusting his breath. He opened his eyes, and a green aura also appeared on his fingertips, and said faintly: "How could such a thing be born in the world."
Although this Qi has never been seen or heard before, the two real Yuanshen masters only took a brief look at it and already understood its magical power clearly.
This Qi... actually has the ability to directly increase one's life span, and it is completely different from any panacea or method of increasing one's life span in the world.
Any method of gifting longevity in the world has its limitations. Let’s not talk about the method of "extending life" that regulates the essence and increases the vitality. For example, Taisu's authentic Jiazi Great Pill can directly increase longevity by refining the elixir. Not to mention that the elixirs required for preparation are extremely rare, and most of them can only be effective after being taken for the first time.
Even the innate spiritual roots and the Green Tribulation Pearl Fruit, which increase one thousand two hundred lifespans, are just average, let alone others.
But the Qi of this world can not only directly increase Tianshou, but also seems to have no limit. It is impossible for Xu Zhuang and Zhicheng's perceptions to be wrong at the same time. What does this mean?
If a mortal were to bathe in this Qi in this world, it would be possible for him to live for thousands of years and live forever, and he would not even be able to remember the calamity years for a while.
This is the eternal life that countless practitioners have gone through thousands of hardships and dreamed of.
But the energy of immortality in this world seems to be endless...
"This is a spiritual creature created by the merits of heaven and man. It does not exist in the world." Xu Zhuang took a deep breath. With his state of mind, naturally he would not feel a sense of disparity because of this so-called immortality. He instantly gained a new understanding of Xuankan's creation and the power of law and all things.
With such great power, I’m afraid it’s almost omnipotent, right?
Xu Zhuang and Zhi Cheng looked at each other, as if they understood what he was thinking, and Master Zhi Cheng nodded slightly.
Xu Zhuang immediately knew that Master Zhicheng was consistent with what he thought.
The two of them knew how precious the Changsheng Qi was. If all the Changsheng Qi in this world could return to Taisu, it would surely create countless values.
Of course, Taisu would not use this method to create countless disciples with long longevity. The longevity energy seems to be free of charge, but whether it is beneficial to the pursuit of truth and attaining the Tao is a matter of benevolence and wisdom.
But no matter what, the value of Changshengqi is extremely important, whether it is to give a little light to those disciples who have no way forward, or to extend the life of those Dacheng monks who are really just one step away from the door——
Even if out of ten, only one person can truly achieve Nirvana and be reborn, it would be of great significance to the sect.
But having said that, planning for longevity is indeed not their top priority at the moment.
Each of the eighteen layers of the palace contains a spiritual object created by the supreme power. The first layer is the energy of immortality. What are the second and third layers?
It is not an easy thing to pocket a realm of longevity energy, and it is not a wise move to stop for it.
Xu Zhuang didn't even hesitate for a moment, and immediately drove Duxu Palace directly to the sky and the second heavenly gate.
…
The second heaven is empty, and I don't know whether it has been reached by predecessors or because the spiritual objects here are not as obvious as the first heaven.
After all, no one in the world knows what spiritual beings there are in the Eighteenth Layer Palace.
No, maybe the Innate Demon Sect will open the Eighteen Layers, and maybe have a certain understanding of it.
Xu Zhuang and Master Zhicheng exchanged their spiritual thoughts quickly, and did not try to search, but continued to chase upwards.
What's strange is that, including the initial realm of clouds, this is already the third level of the cave sky. However, this place is still extremely vast. Xu Zhuang even has a vague feeling that this level of heaven seems to be wider than the previous level.
At least Duxu Palace passed through the two heavens in a row. Although it was very fast, the distance traveled by the second heaven was longer.
This is undoubtedly unusual, but considering the origin of this world, everything seems to be in line with common sense.
If you think about it carefully, every kind of great power of the gods and humans is not unimaginable, and it can even change the common knowledge of the world?
Xu Zhuang had hidden thoughts in his heart, but did not stop when he crossed the Xu Palace, and broke into several heavenly gates.
Each heavenly palace is indeed strangely vast, and the scenes are different. On the fifth level, Xu Zhuang even found signs of the existence of living beings, but found no traces of his predecessors.
Zhicheng Zhenren frowned slightly. Although the Eighteen Layers of Que was vast, the predecessors were only a little faster. They came all the way without any pause, and there was no reason why they could not catch up.
Either the predecessors were like crossing the Xu Palace, heading straight upward without any pause, with a clear purpose, or, in fact, they had already chased too far——
Perhaps in a certain heaven that Duxu Palace passed through, the predecessors had stopped, looking for hidden spiritual objects.
This is not impossible. These 'cave heavens' are so huge that even the real Yuanshen can't see them all. If others hide their auras, they might really miss them.
Of course, the greater possibility is that it's both.
Zhicheng Zhenren already had an idea in his mind, and after passing through two heavenly gates, he finally stopped hesitating and sent out his spiritual thoughts.
Xu Zhuang raised his brows slightly and couldn't help but ponder.
Zhicheng Zhenren thought that if he chased like this and still disappeared, then turning back would probably not be enough. It would be better to split up, one person to pursue directly, the other to look back and search carefully.
This is indeed a better choice. The only worry is that the troops are divided into two groups. If they encounter an expert from the Demon Sect, there will be no one to help them.
However, Xu Zhuang is not afraid, and since Master Zhicheng can make this statement, he is naturally confident.
Xu Zhuang just thought for a moment, then agreed, but said: "It's better to get to the ninth heaven and then split into two directions."
This is an extremely simple consideration. Zhencheng Zhenren naturally knows it, so he readily responds: "Good."
With the determined number in mind, Xu Zhuang had no intention of staying and drove straight up. When he reached the eighth heaven, he suddenly saw countless golden lights flying all over the sky. Their speed was so fast that it exceeded the shooting stars. If he had any sanity, he would be extremely agile.
Apart from Changsheng Qi, this is the first spiritual object to appear in front of people. Zhicheng Zhenren thought for a moment and suddenly said: "This is already the eighth heaven. It's better for one person to stop here, try to collect this object, and then go to Search down."
Xu Zhuang didn't hesitate and asked, "If the real person wants to go in, why don't you go back?"
Zhicheng Zhenzhen smiled slightly and said: "When Dao Miaozi is still making endless progress, he should go up, and Pindao will go back and search."
Xu Zhuang frowned slightly, intuitively thinking that Zhencheng Zhenren had something to say, but this was not a moment of entanglement, and he didn't care whether he went back or forth, so he agreed directly without saying anything.
Zhicheng Zhenren bowed his head and bowed, but without any movement, his soul suddenly turned into a wisp of flying smoke and fled out of Duxu Palace.
Naturally, Xu Zhuang didn't need to worry about this patriarch who had profound Taoism and vast magical powers. Withdrawing his spiritual thoughts, Xu Zhuang did not stop and drove up to Duxu Palace.
Not long after, Duxugong finally broke through the ninth heavenly gate. However, the next moment, he heard a loud roar that shook the sky and the earth:
"Roar!--"
Xu Zhuang looked up and saw a mouth covered with sharp teeth and a bottomless bloody mouth. It opened like an abyss and swallowed it in one gulp!
