In the shocked eyes of the Heavenly Wolf Sect, a giant drum emerged from the depths of the sky, stirring up countless cyan divine patterns from the clouds and mist.
"Rumble--"
The roaring sound came in an instant, and the blue thunder also arrived in an instant. In a moment, all the Heavenly Wolf Sect members were engulfed by cyan thunder.
Ask the blue sky. The drums thunder.
On the battlefield, Gu Qingyang had just made his Taoist soldiers manifest this form, and many of the Heavenly Wolf Sect members perished after being swallowed up by the thunder.
Such a result made many people who survived look at Gu Qingyang in fear. Their eyes were also full of disbelief.
How is this possible?
They are not stupid, they naturally know what level Gu Qingyang's cultivation aura has reached.
But no matter how they feel, no matter how they judge. They could only conclude that Gu Qingyang's cultivation level was only at the seventh level.
They are a group of bone cultivators whose cultivation is above the ninth realm. In terms of cultivation, they have truly surpassed Gu Qingyang's two realms!
Logically speaking, even if Gu Qingyang is a genius level figure. Under such a gap in realm, Gu Qingyang could not be so invincible.
But the fact... is right in front of people like them, and they can't help but not believe it.
At the same moment, Gu Qingyang was just looking coldly at these people who withstood the first wave of offensive.
Yes, this was only his first confrontation with these people.
After this period of training, he really wanted to see what level his current combat power had reached.
For this reason, he planned to treat these people in front of him as his sparring partners. Fighting, for no other reason than to test your own fighting strength.
…
Today, he has a much clearer understanding of himself than before. It is also more comprehensive than before.
Looking back at the beginning of this life, he was not even sure whether Heaven remembered him, let alone whether the world still remembered him.
While practicing in the Ancient Hanging Coffin Sect, he conducted verification many times, and even made life-threatening attempts in order to obtain effective verification.
However, even if he got things to this point at the time, he still couldn't get a more definite answer.
Therefore, while practicing in the Ancient Xuan Coffin Sect, he spent every day in suspicion and planning. Days like that are indeed very tiring.
It was not until later, when he left the Hanging Coffin Ancient Sect for the first time to go out to practice.
It was in that city, in front of that small stall, that he got the answer he wanted.
From then on, he knew that the world would never remember him, but heaven had not forgotten him. Tiandao even tried to change him.
Unfortunately, in order to protect his own way, he could only give the most direct answer at that time. He stuck to his heart.
From that time on, due to divine punishment, he developed the magical power of "Ghost Transformation into Armor" and turned himself into a monster.
At that time, he also felt that he could compete with the way of heaven because he knew the "truth" and because he knew how to use the "rules of the game."
Until later——
As he moved forward, the people around him began to move away from him in various ways, such as death, separation, etc.
Until he became more and more lonely, and when he finally met true love, he could only make up his mind and choose to leave...
He discovered that he had not changed.
He has always been who he is, and his heart has always been the same.
On the way forward, even if he reminded him countless times that he must seal his feelings.
Later... didn't he still be unable to suppress his feelings?
He would still be immersed in the land of tenderness, and he would still narrowly escape death countless times because of those illusions related to his sister.
If it weren't for the influence of "emotion" on him, he would never have saved Fan Linlang, let alone saved Liu Xinyu for Liu Han.
The moment he first started practicing the Wuqing Dao, he realized that all the paths he had taken were dead ends arranged by Heaven.
Su Yue...if he hadn't chosen to treat this perfect woman who had reached a soul-matching state with him, he would treat her sincerely.
If he didn't impress her with his sincerity.
Then under the arrangement of heaven, Su Yue is very likely to take away his inheritance, thus completely rewriting history.
In terms of qualifications, Su Yue is no worse than him in his previous life. So even if she can't reach the seventeenth level, Su Yue can still break through the seventeenth level in half a step.
She... was the first move to kill.
The second move to kill was Luo Shuixian.
The farewell at the southern border seemed to be an ordinary farewell. But in fact, he deliberately wanted to push this woman further away.
Out of his own heart, he just didn't want to have too much entanglement with Luo Shuixian. After all, this thing is simply cause and effect, and it will have to be replaced sooner or later.
Fortunately, Luo Shuixian finally felt relieved.
Otherwise, the Luo family might really become his enemy in advance. If that were the case, his road would be even more difficult than it is now.
…
There is also the matter of Fan Linlang. If he had not left a good impression on this little girl, then the grass on his grave would be two feet high now.
After all, for a little girl like Fan Linlang, the dispute between the past life and the present life is really just a matter of a thought.
At that time, if she was really convinced by her previous life, he would be finished.
If that were the case, let alone the nameless place of the Underworld, let alone the Chaotic Abyss of Demons... He wouldn't even be able to get out of the Underworld.
Liu Xinyu's disaster was not that big.
But that disaster had a very serious impact on his heart, especially the different outcomes of Chu Xiuwei and Liu Xinyu.
It is no exaggeration to say that this incident has always been a terrifying wound in his heart. Every time he thought about it, he would feel sad.
It was just a little bit short... If he could have been more cautious at that time, if he could have revealed his methods in advance, the tragedy would not have happened at all.
But...there is no if in this world.
Every time he experienced those things, he would feel tortured. Every time he felt torment, the shackles in his body became stronger.
Such an encounter made him feel like a wild beast that was suppressed by Heaven in a cage. He is the caged beast.
Every time something happens, the cage trapping him shrinks a bit.
Thinking about it carefully, when his power was sealed, it was as if he was completely disconnected from the world and unable to communicate with the laws of the great road.
This is really a terrible thing.
But it was precisely because of this detail that he gradually realized that he was different from other bone cultivators in the world.
On the surface, he seems to be no different from other bone cultivators. But in a sense, he is not human at all.
His soul is different from other people's souls.
Other people's souls can be easily destroyed, just like pieces of porcelain and pottery with different workmanship, which can easily break.
And his soul is like a piece of metal, a natural thing in itself, extremely difficult to be destroyed, and even more difficult to be changed.
With that knowledge that shook both ancient and modern times, he deeply realized that his soul could be called the "Emperor Soul" because he was the Emperor.
Even though, in this first life, he had already experienced death in the traditional sense.
But for him, everything is just starting over again, he is still who he is.
Moreover, he has been in touch with the great laws of this world from the beginning.
It's just because at the beginning, the cultivation level was too weak.
Therefore, he cannot influence the Great Dao through his will, let alone use the power of the Great Dao.
But now everything is different. Through re-cultivation in this life, the results he has built are even more outstanding than his own previous life.
If each state of bone cultivation is regarded as a "step" on the road of bone cultivation. It’s also the “seven steps” to go out.
His seven steps are completely different from those of ordinary people. This is not his subjective conjecture, but an objective fact.
At every step and every level, he accomplished what others could not do.
And all these things are proof that he has a profound connection with the Dao.
As he continues to grow stronger, his connection with the Law of the Great Dao continues to deepen. Until the end, Tiandao had to care about this matter.
Therefore, even if Heaven wants to destroy him, Heaven must continue to make new plans and layouts according to the laws of the Great Dao to kill him.
Tiandao did this... The reason is simply because only by doing this can Gu Qingyang's influence on the world be minimized.
As for the boundaries between cultivation realms——
Compared with others, this thing is naturally difficult to break.
Because a higher level of cultivation often means a deeper cognitive gap.
This gap is not only reflected in the level of cultivation, but also directly reflected in the level of combat. Therefore, a higher realm can often really crush people to death.
But Gu Qingyang is different from others. As a person with the cognition of Imperial Bone Cultivator, no one can surpass him in terms of cognition.
In the past battles, there were many methods that he had never used before, but he was extremely proficient in using them for the first time.
This... is because he still retains his original knowledge.
So for him, cultivation basically means that as long as he has enough strength and no fluctuations in his state of mind, he can do whatever he wants.
The gap in realm is indeed a limitation for him, and it is an unavoidable limitation. But since he returned from the underworld, he has changed.
Perhaps because of that stone, he began to be able to "accommodate" power infinitely, just like a sea, embracing all rivers.
Logically speaking, no matter how powerful a bone cultivator in the seventh realm of innocence is, the power of this bone will be difficult to surpass that of a bone cultivator in the ninth realm.
After all, the gap in realm lies here.
But some time ago, the majestic strength in his body had reached a level that could only be achieved by ordinary tenth-level bone cultivators.
Just looking at this incident, it is enough to defy the heavens. What's more, his methods are endless.
Plus his scheming.
Now he has entered the Wuqing Dao again... So what if there is a gap in realm? As long as there are no real geniuses among these people.
He can also kill bone cultivators above the ninth level!
However, just because he can understand such things does not mean that these bone cultivators themselves can also understand such things.
They are very depressed now, and they are still depressed to the extreme. Because they simply couldn't understand how powerful Gu Qingyang was.
"Why?"
There is such a question deep in each of their hearts, but they are unable to raise it no matter what.
Because they feel that it would be really embarrassing if they did this. And even if you ask, what can you do?
Will Gu Qingyang let them go?
This is the problem closest to reality, and it is also a problem they cannot avoid. Today's game was originally a game for them to hunt people.
Due to various reasons, this killing situation was reversed. Although this scene seems really ridiculous now.
But... they have become prey.
"ah!"
Feel the feeling of being burned by thunder and walking towards destruction step by step. Finally, some people in the crowd couldn't bear it anymore.
He heard the man let out a roar, and then suddenly stepped forward. Fuzzy shadows appeared all over his body, faintly emitting brilliance.
Such a change made everyone present feel confused.
But the other members of the Five Sirius Sects were obviously overjoyed. When such changes occurred, they were extremely excited.
The eighth level of bone cultivation, the Thousand Soul Tribulation.
As the name suggests, bone cultivators who have reached this level must continue to temper their souls and make them stronger just like those in the sixth level.
The reason for practicing in this way is because bone cultivation often enters a truly perfect state after reaching the seventh level.
The seven realms of sinlessness, if one truly achieves sinlessness, then the bone cultivator's own soul, body, and Tao will be perfectly integrated.
The state after perfect integration is what is called perfection.
In this state, the bone cultivator's own combat power will reach a whole new level.
But if he doesn't actively abandon this state, then this bone cultivator will never be able to take the next step. Naturally, the eighth realm cannot be achieved.
Compared to the body, the soul is actually more important. After all, if the body is gone, it can be re-established by various means.
But if the soul is gone, it is really gone.
Therefore, what is cultivated in the eighth realm is still the soul.
The bone cultivators in the eighth realm have initially understood the great path.
Once they realize the Great Dao to a certain extent, "Dao marks" will be formed inside the bodies of the eighth-level bone cultivators, symbolizing the results of their practice.
Those dao marks will continue to nourish their bodies, nourish their life bones, and even nourish their souls.
However, the formation of Dao marks requires overcoming tribulations.
Of course, overcoming tribulation is also a common sense.
In the ninth realm, ten thousand bones are difficult.
As the soul undergoes further transformation, the body and life bones naturally cannot lose too much. Therefore, what is cultivated in the ninth level is the body, and what is cultivated is the body and bones.
Ninth level bone cultivation, after they reach the ninth level, the Dao marks in their bodies will further transform. Thus evolved into "Tao pattern".
That is a symbol of the ninth level of bone cultivation of "Tao". As for what kind of Tao enlightenment he has gained, others will not know.
In contrast... It stands to reason that the seventh-level bone cultivator's understanding of spiritual practice should still be at the level of "self-sin."
It is far out of reach of "Tao".
But from Gu Qingyang's body, they felt an extremely strong aura of thunder.
This aura made them feel that Gu Qingyang's cultivation was higher than theirs.
In fact... the facts are as they see them, although they are a bit ridiculous, they are the real reality. And in order to ensure that he can survive.
Naturally, some of them will activate their potential and use all their strength to resist. Just like this guy who suddenly exploded.
Those blurry shadows are not ordinary things, but a sign that the bone cultivators in the ninth realm are about to enter the tenth realm.
The tenth realm is the appearance of all saints.
After bone cultivation reaches a certain level, the Tao patterns in their bodies will often no longer change, neither increase nor decrease.
Once such a situation occurs, it means that the bone cultivator should further explore the known path and find his own avenue.
Throughout the ages, there are countless people whose majestic appearance shocked the past and present.
Their true nature is left in the wilderness in the form of relics. If future generations are lucky enough to see them, it will be a great opportunity.
The reason why the tenth realm is called All Saints' Appearance is because all the bone cultivators who step into this realm...all have to cultivate a "self-appearance".
Observing the true nature of the ancient saints was of great benefit to their practice.
In this way, the bone cultivator who has stepped onto the threshold of the tenth realm will naturally eagerly search for the true self left by the saints of ancient and modern times.
Even if all they find is a dilapidated ruin, they will be extremely satisfied. And the bone cultivator who has his true self is naturally terrifying.
The other sects of the Five Heavenly Wolf Sects were very happy for this reason.
They really didn't know how powerful Gu Qingyang was, but someone on their side had broken through to a big level, which was a good thing after all.
The strength on their side is stronger, and the hope of defeating Gu Qingyang and the two is greater.
But soon, the cyan thunder spread like an escaped green snake and beast.
Under the witness of all of them, the bone cultivator collapsed to the ground.
At the same moment, Gu Qingyang just stared at everyone with a calm expression.
Everyone was shocked and looked at Gu Qingyang with shocked, angry, and somewhat frightened eyes. Gu Qingyang raised his hand and silently raised the spear in his hand.
This spear was not transformed by his Taoist weapon, nor was it a magical weapon he refined, but something he condensed by gathering the power of thunder.
Barely...it can be considered a weapon.
"boom!"
"laugh--"
"boom!"
…
Soon, as the first sound of breaking through the sky sounded that shook the world, the second, third… and countless sounds of breaking through the sky sounded one after another.
This sound didn't sound like anything to Fifth Mountain and River, but it was shocking. But to those people's ears, it was a death-inducing demonic sound.
"ah!"
…
