As soon as Zhan Changfeng came out of the passage, he first heard a surprised shout of "the sea has opened", followed by a lot of shouting, followed by the sound of falling into the water. Oh my god, a group of people all jumped into the sea.
The sea water is swaying violently, it should be those true monarchs who are uniting with the masters to break the defense of the secret mansion. When Zhan Changfeng looked at the sea, there was no sign of them. He was so drunk that he could still find the location so accurately.
"Thousands of people in the sea are fighting for a secret palace. You two will keep an eye on them later."
Wu Mu and Yuan Jie looked at each other, feeling powerless. What happened to them?
At that time, the four true kings of East Wu, West Wu, North Wu, and Zhongwu and the Zen Master Nawu, together with the thirty-six half-step magical powers and masters of the life and death realm present, each used their best ability and worked together to break the secret palace. Covering the sky, the air swept thousands of miles away, setting off a submarine storm. The rocks and seaweed were crushed without a trace. Even the monks who were close and did not hide suffered disasters, ranging from vomiting blood to severe limb separation.
"Don't retreat, apply more force, success or failure depends on this!" Dongwu Zhenjun gritted his teeth, the outer layer of defense of the secret palace had cracked, and the amazing spiritual power leaked out from inside, there is no doubt that , there must be immortal treasures and precious weapons inside!
Dozens of masters worked harder and harder, trying to support the seam in the hope of tearing it open even wider. At that moment, a group of people came rushing in, with shadows of guns, light of swords, magic flames, spiritual fire, fierce weapons, and treasures. The power exploded suddenly, immediately piercing the seam into a hole, and suddenly entered.
The monks had no time to guess who they were, for fear of being one step behind and losing their chance, they rushed to break into the secret palace first. Thousands of monks watching from a distance saw that the true king and the realm of life and death had entered, and they rushed in with all their strength.
Suddenly, three or four screams were heard on top of each other, eight or nine hoarse beast roars were heard, and blood flowed down the stone steps of the secret mansion, causing those who had not yet had time to step in to hesitate and panic.
"It's the guardian beast!"
"What a terrible pressure!"
Zhan Changfeng and Wu Mu Yuanjue fell in front of the secret mansion. The unique spiritual power of the spiritual plant treasures and the pressure of the ferocious beasts were intertwined, as if a new dangerous space had been formed.
"You two, be careful." Zhan Changfeng entered the secret mansion first, mindful of those drunkards.
The secret palace covers an area of three hundred miles, with numerous palaces and palaces inside, fairy and spiritual trees growing wantonly, and ferocious beasts showing off their power.
This group of monks came in, like locusts crossing the border, digging up everything they could, including the roots and soil. At the same time, they were busy resisting the ferocious beasts, and the blood on the ground was smeared layer by layer.
Zhan Changfeng walked around the minced meat on the ground, looking for traces of Jiang Jinjiu and others, while walking inward along the central axis.
In a general building layout, the palaces on the central axis have great symbolic significance. As she walked past, the doors of each palace were open, and the inside was in a mess, and the scene was clearly looted, like a treasure hunt. In this kind of thing, what matters is not speed.
Zhan Changfeng's body swayed, and she appeared in front of the main hall in an instant. The main hall was towering and formidable, with a mysterious aura flowing from the inside to the outside. It was like a heavy stone weighing on her heart. When she entered the hall, she saw the five islands of magical power and all the masters of the life and death realm. All are there.
East Wu, West Wu, North Wu, Zhongwu Zhenjun closed his eyes tightly and stood on the golden steps in front of him. A gray-patterned stone hung above it. It was also the source of the mysterious breath.
Zen Master Namo stood aside, looking like he was not fighting or taking any action.
There were also twelve golden pillars in the hall, which sealed the skills and treasures, but it was not easy to get them. She saw Liu Fuyi, Gu Hanxing and others standing beside the golden pillars, as if they were undergoing some test.
Gu Hanxing was already in this palace. Although Jiang Jinjiu and others were not there, she still found traces. They were fine for the time being. She focused on the gray patterned stone. Wu Mu beside her sighed, "It turns out to be a natural enlightenment stone. , I’ll give it a try.”
Pratyekabuddha also said, "Amitabha, the young monk is also here."
The natural Enlightenment Stone is born with the truth of the Great Way, and is an excellent way to realize the Great Way. Looking at the spiritual power of this Enlightenment Stone, I am afraid that it contains principles and laws. All monks who see it will be moved.
Zhan Changfeng is no exception.
"Wait a minute!" Zhao Dali from Dongwu Island stopped in front of them and shouted, "Where did the barbarians come from? Even Senior Zhenjun dares to rush forward at will!"
Xi Wu Dao smiled confusedly, hiding the needle in the cotton, "The golden steps are only nine steps, how can there be so many people standing there, other friends who want to give it a try, please wait, don't you think so?"
The five major islands governed Li Hai together and shared the same hatred. After Gou Huo spoke, they all gathered together and blocked the golden steps. Other Li Hai monks did not dare to compete with him, either looking for other treasures or watching from the sidelines.
Itsuki said coldly as if he was used to it, "When I travel to various walks of life, I often encounter people who are willing to take advantage of me, and I always end up with nothing good."
"Fellow Taoist, don't tell the truth. Our elders are still here." Yuanjue lowered his eyebrows and tried to persuade him, "Why don't we take a step back, find someone who can speak human words, and then discuss it carefully."
Zhao Dali was so angry that he did not dare to question Zen Master Nawu, so he said to his eldest disciple, "Master Sanshi, Nanwu Temple has very loose control over its disciples."
Monk Sanshi shook his head lightly, "This master is not from Nanmo Temple."
When Zhao Dali heard this, he immediately shouted, "Hey, where does this wild monk come from? He has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth!"
Who is Yuan Jie? Before he participated in the fight in the vast world, he was the bell-ringing soul boy of the Great Compassion Temple in the Holy Land. He sacrificed his life to help the world with his heart trained in the world of mortals. He became a Buddha with a Taoist heart and became one of the disciples of the Buddha in the universal Buddhist country. Anyone can be him. He couldn't be a wild monk.
Zen Master Namo could vaguely sense the Buddha nature of this strange monk. He didn't want Zhao Dali to say that to him, so he asked Pratyekabuddha, "Why fight with others in such a killing place?"
Pratyekabuddha asked, "Then why are you here?"
"It will come when it comes."
Yuanjue said, “Let’s fight when it’s time to fight.”
Zen Master Namo kept silent.
This is the difference in attitude. Nanmo Temple belongs to the Tantric Sect of Cause and Effect and pays attention to fate. If he comes, he may not fight, it depends on his "destiny".
Pratyekabuddha is a sect of the Heart Awakening Tantric sect. He was born in the world of mortals. From then on, he paid more attention to his own liberation. Whether he fights or not, it all depends on his own mind.
"You shouldn't argue about whether it comes or not. This is what you shouldn't argue about." Zhao Dali smiled cruelly, "If you have such free time, you might as well go somewhere else!"
Wu Mu asked Zhan Changfeng, "Can these people be killed?"
She asked this question more considerately considering that Zhan Changfeng wanted to establish a career in this world and could not offend others at will.
"It's not easy to kill without a dead knot." Zhan Changfeng said, "Respecting people who have no relatives and no connections as seniors is a form of cultivation, not respecting them is normal. Moreover, only four of the nine gold levels are occupied, so there are still vacancies, so how can we say that they are full? , I hope everyone in the Five Islands will step back, you can be arrogant in your own territory, why bother coming here to embarrass yourself."
Each of his words was more irritating than the last. How could Zhao Dali endure it any longer? He raised his palm and attacked. Zhan Changfeng randomly triggered a bolt of thunder, and the electric light was so violent that he was instantly turned into ashes.
It turned out that everyone who was full of anger was swept away by the residual power, and they shouted and ran away in fear. They were free of a circle. When their hearts were calm, they heard her say indifferently, "This way, you can kill me."
Zhan Changfeng looked at her coldly. No one dared to look at her, so she stood on the golden steps on her own.
This golden staircase has a different world. As soon as you step on it, you feel like you have entered another space. An unattainable mountain appears in front of you. Looking up the stone staircase, it is gray and endless.
"I, the Righteous King, even though I was a lonely king in the wild, lived my whole life with few enemies. Now I am enthroned here, leaving behind my precious treasures during my lifetime for future generations, whoever is able can take them."
This passage is engraved on the first stone staircase.
Zhan Changfeng looked at the mountains and stepped up. Every step he took felt like he was carrying a thousand pounds. After only a hundred steps, he was already carrying a mountain on his back.
As a result, on the 101st step, a "she" suddenly appeared and came towards her without saying a word. Her strength was exactly the same as when she was in her prime!
An insurmountable illusion within an illusion?
Zhan Changfeng carried a heavy weight and fought with "her", and defeated "her" with force. Just as he took the 102nd step, two "shes" appeared at the same time.
The stone stairs stretch endlessly, and this is bound to be a tough battle.
Outside, Wumu and Yuanjue climbed up the golden steps after Zhan Changfeng. Some casual cultivators rushed up before the people on the five islands could react.
The five major islands were angry and anxious. If the people standing on the golden steps were not protected by inexplicable power, they would have to kick them down.
"This matter must not be let go. Ignoring the True Lord is an unforgivable crime! Killing my fellow disciples is worthy of death!" Zhao Dali's fellow student Li Shan was furious and indignant. "We must ask the True Lord for orders to avenge fellow Taoist Zhao!"
Deep down in his heart, he felt that Zhao Dali deserved it. He had to show his loyalty here and cut off the opportunities of other monks. The other monks did not dare to say anything due to the majesty of the five islands, but there was something wrong in the end, giving people a sense of domineering. .
Fortunately, the other True Lords were all present and had great positions. It was understandable that others could not be ranked with them. Gouhuo also took advantage of the situation and used "can't stand" to give him a step up.
But who knew that these three people were all tough and did not take the Five Islands and several True Lords seriously at all!
But even if Zhao Dali took the lead and acted unreasonably, and deserved to die, they could not just sit back and ignore it, and be accused of being "cold and heartless".
Maybe some people are really angry, maybe some people want to show their loyalty like Li Shan, the palace is noisy, "You're right, we want to ask the true king to make the decision for Brother Zhao Dao!"
"Even if Brother Zhao has flaws in his actions, his crime will not lead to death!"
"Is there anything we can discuss? Someone must die."
One person even approached Zen Master Namo and said, "Master, you are all watching. Our five major islands are connected by the same energy. You can't ignore it!"
"Yes, she is provoking our Five Islands!"
Zen Master Namo recited the Buddha's name in a low voice and shook his head, "It's just a thought of blessings and misfortunes. The consequences of good and evil have already been foreshadowed, so he can't escape."
After Zen Master Namo finished speaking, he quietly led his disciples away.
The mouths and tongues of the other four islands are dry. What do these monks mean? Are they here to pretend to be magicians? !
Ding~
A soul-stirring clear sound suddenly rang out, making people dizzy.
Everyone looked over and saw a soul-calming bell falling from a golden pillar and falling into a delicate hand.
Liu Fuyi played with the bell in his hand and had no other desires. He looked at the people on the golden steps and left the secret mansion calmly.
Suddenly Lord Xiwu vomited out a mouthful of blood and fell down the golden steps, his face pale.
Gou Huo hurriedly stepped forward to support her, "Master, where are you injured?"
"Nothing, just adjust your breathing a little bit." Zhenjun Xiwu calmed down and looked at the people above. Seeing that Dongwu, Beiwu and Zhongwu were all still above him, he smiled bitterly, "I guess I have no luck. "
She smoothed away her confusion and said, "If you want to go up there and try it, then try it. What are you doing standing here?"
With that said, she went to explore other places in the Secret Mansion.
Gou Huo stared blankly at the dust in the air, and suddenly wondered whether he had misjudged the magnitude of the True Lords. Their behavior of refusing others to approach the Golden Steps in the name of protecting their elders, in the eyes of the True Lord, , are they like children playing house and not applauding their loyalty and filial piety?
After a while, Dongwu Zhenjun's body twitched, sweating like rain, and he suddenly opened his closed eyes, "It's so scary."
"What a pity!" He had already reached more than 8,000 steps, not far from the top of the mountain!
He actually missed the legacy of a powerful man like this!
Lord Dongwu was short of breath and had tightness in his chest, and could not calm down for a while.
Li Shan hurriedly stepped forward to express his concern, observed his words, and saw that he was not in a good mood. He did not immediately report the news of Zhao Dali's death. After saying a few words, he cautiously said, "Brother Zhao Dao is dead."
"Huh?" Zhenjun Dongwu looked around and couldn't find Zhao Dali's shadow, and his face was stained with anger, "Who did it!"
Who has the guts to kill his disciples!
Li Shan immediately pointed at Zhan Changfeng.
"Why?" Zhenjun Dongwu looked at Zhan Changfeng on the golden steps. There was still sweat on his face. He naturally knew what kind of struggle the soul had experienced in the illusion, but this man stood on the golden steps with his hands behind his back, slightly Closing his eyes, he thought he was meditating on something.
No sign of struggle at all.
Dongwu Zhenjun looked solemn, I am afraid this person is not simple.
Li Shan knew that Zhao Dali was usually favored by the True Lord, so he did not directly say his fault, so he said angrily, "You and all the True Lords have a distinguished status. Besides, you have already occupied this small golden step, how can you still have someone else's?" Brother Zhao asked the others to wait and come back later, but their sarcastic remarks angered Brother Zhao, and Brother Zhao took action in a moment of anger... Poor Brother Zhao is young. Die young."
Dongwu Zhenjun's eyes were unpredictable, he didn't speak, and he didn't leave. He just sat down and recuperated.
Three moments later, all the new casual cultivators who came up rolled down. One of them even went crazy. After another three breaths, Beiwu Zhenjun also walked down with a pale face, found a corner, and hurriedly tended to his internal injuries.
True Lord Dongwu looked at the golden steps again. There were True Lord Zhongwu and three strange monks on it. They were still insisting? !
In the illusion, countless thunderclouds fight together, and thousands of thunderbolts attack each other. Zhan Changfeng holds a heavy sword in one hand and a Baji True Domain in the other. His eyes are as cold as snow, and he doesn't care that he is the one who is killing him, nor does he care about his feet. There are countless corpses that look exactly like hers.
She finally stood on the last step covered in blood, expecting that nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine versions of herself would come out...
"Changfeng."
