But that's it.
"belch."
But he heard a belching sound, the sound was deafening.
Zhao Ning suddenly paused, and a mirage appeared in the depths of the mirage. This mirage was weird, it was the bottom of the sea, a shadow on the bottom of the sea.
She was startled, sensing her surroundings with her consciousness, but felt strange distortions. Then the mirage disappeared, the sky also disappeared, and she suddenly appeared on the bottom of the sea.
She looked at the shadow again. What was strange was that even though she was not making any movement, the bottom of the sea was approaching her.
Until there was no critical point, Zhao Ning seemed to have once again reenacted what he had encountered in the northern cold sea. He fell into the sea and sank to the endless sea floor, and then saw a huge shadow bound by layers of shackles.
But at this moment, the shadow appeared completely in front of her eyes.
A mirage half a mile wide.
The two petals of his shell opened and closed slightly, and mirage poured out from them.
Zhao Ning understood something in an instant.
She controlled her emotions, "Senior, is he the god who guards the Fallen Immortal Realm?"
"Guard?" The ancient murmur sounded again, and the two shells of the mirage only slightly unfolded, emitting a miserable sorrow, "I've had enough."
Its two shells suddenly opened, and the squirming flesh inside gradually bulged into a human shape. As it moved, the chains that bound it made a dull sound.
"Why do I have to guard here? Damn Tiangong, damn Yuanshen, ah!"
It screamed, and the bottom of the sea became manic, and the undercurrent was like a killing frenzy.
Zhao Ning was shocked and didn't understand why it was said that Tiangong asked him to guard here. What does this Fallen Immortal Realm have to do with Tiangong?
“Isn’t this the place of exile in Jiuzhou?”
"The place of exile in Jiuzhou? Child, let me tell you a secret." His figure came closer to Zhao Ning, but it had no facial features and had no form. It looked extremely terrifying. "There are nine continents in Jiuzhou, and Zhongzhou is the place of exile." Earth, oh, it is what your ruined continent calls Kyushu. You have forgotten the past, but you have not forgotten the original name."
Empress Houtu once mentioned the word "Zhongzhou" in her mouth, and it passed by in a flash.
Zhao Ning had already been vaguely aware of the secret between Jiuzhou and Jiuzhou, but she couldn't help but tremble when she heard it again.
But then I heard the mirage roar, "But damn Tiangong, they moved these disgusting guys here, disturbed my sleep, and imprisoned me here until they eat everyone."
"I can't eat anymore, I can't eat anymore!"
All Zhao Ning's emotions were stagnant, so the mirages surging on the sea were actually mirages devouring the human race in the Fallen Immortal Realm, fulfilling the orders forcibly given to it by the Heavenly Palace.
Zhao Ning's breath froze in such a heavenly palace. Is it still the sky she knew?
The images of Venerable Haochu, Venerable Hongde and others flashed through Zhao Ning's eyes.
She knew that what she saw was just goodwill brought about by the golden elixir of innate good fortune, but she didn't expect that there was something like this hidden behind this goodwill...
What is the difference between this and the evil people in the Fallen Immortal Realm?
But Zhao Ning didn't want to fall into endless doubts and accusations with just words. She suppressed the turmoil in her heart and kept herself calm enough to listen to it.
However, it seems that the mirage must reveal something, otherwise Zhao Ning will have any chance to turn around and breathe.
It seemed to have been watching Zhao Ning, "My child, guess why they are unwilling to put these people who have fallen into the Immortal Realm into Kyushu."
"They will be punished by heaven and will bring disaster to the common people..."
Zhao Ning murmured, knowing that such an answer seemed so pale.
Zhao Ning was not surprised even when he heard Mirage's unabashed laughter.
"Because there can only be nine Yuanshen in Kyushu."
Zhao Ning was extremely shocked.
"They come from Jiuzhou, and the inheritance has never been cut off since ancient times. They have the most suitable techniques for the Dao, the most powerful Dao techniques, and complete immortal connections. They will definitely become Yuanshen. One person can enter the Dao. , one person will die."
Zhao Ning closed her eyes.
It is accusing the Tiangong Yuanshen of selfishness, but as one of the people of Kyushu, before reaching the realm of Yuanshen, all the people of Jiuzhou will stand on the side of Tiangong.
She tried to be rational.
"So." Zhao Ning asked, "Why are there only nine Yuanshen in Jiuzhou."
Mirage looked at her strangely, "You have obviously got the mulch fragments, but why are you still pretending to be stupid?"
Zhao Ning pursed her lips.
I only heard Mirage say, "The mulch is the barrier between the entire Kyushu and the void outside the territory. If the mulch is broken, we can only use the time ruins to make up for the original mulch. And once there are more than ten people under the time ruins, the law of the time ruins will be exceeded." limit."
Zhao Ning seemed to have lost all consciousness for a moment.
"Look up at the sky. He is now replaced by Shixu. Without the sky, do you think the way of heaven in Kyushu still exists?"
"Everything here is in semi-chaos. The way of heaven you know is nothing but a human substitute."
It seemed sarcastic.
"Guess who replaced Jiuzhou Tiandao."
A thunder exploded in the dark.
Chapter 232
"Heaven... Palace?" Zhao Ning murmured.
Mirage laughter lingered in my ears.
"Who else can there be besides them? It is a place that has been abandoned by the Heavenly Dao, but they are aloof and in charge of the nine continents of Heavenly Dao, making everyone think that they can practice enlightenment and live forever. But they are just asking everyone to do this. It's just a ridiculous dream. What do you think they are for?"
Zhao Ning's lips trembled. She seemed to be able to guess the answer, but she couldn't say it.
"Don't kid yourself, little one, you know it."
It no longer waited for Zhao Ning's answer, but said directly, "Of course it is for merit."
Zhao Ning closed her eyes.
Mirage lamented, "The ruins of time have isolated everything, but merits can lead to the way of heaven. That is the real way of heaven in Jiuzhou. Your cultivation will no longer be bound by the ruins of time. Once you attain enlightenment, you can transcend this place and break the void and return to the Nine Provinces." You see, they are just doing it for themselves, they just want to abandon Kyushu."
"And you, the so-called sentient beings in the Nine Provinces, are just tools for them to obtain merit."
"No." Zhao Ning opened his eyes, shook his head and said, "Even if it is a tool of merit, it will not harm us. On the contrary, what we get is kindness."
"Hahaha, naive."
The mirage laughed at the judgment.
Zhao Ning stopped talking for a moment and just listened to what he said. "Little guy, before you get the merit, they will definitely destroy your path to enlightenment, and they will never let other cultivators step into Yuanshen."
"So, you see, in Jiuzhou, the vast majority of practitioners are recommended to practice the spiritual root path that cannot be achieved, and almost everyone does not attach importance to cultivating the mind."
"The transformation of the Yuanying into the Yuanshen is about the nature of the mind; the Yuanshen has three tribulations, one has passed through the ninth level of thunder tribulation, the second has passed through the thunder and fire tribulation, and the third has passed through the ninth level of heart-burning tribulation. Excluding the first tribulation's heavy strength, the last two tribulations Which one is not based on the nature of the mind; there are also five declines of heaven and humans, which are even more disasters of the mind. You see, the Heavenly Palace has thrown down the spiritual root method, cutting off the possibility of everyone becoming a spirit, a heaven, and a human being, and finally enlightening."
Mirage's voice was very deep, so deep that it seemed to easily penetrate into my heart.
"You are just living in the prison they gave you. You are worse than these Fallen Immortals in the Fallen Immortal Realm."
Zhao Ning insisted, "Although everyone in the Heavenly Palace is indifferent, they have not taken away my merits."
"It's okay, little one, I know you don't trust me."
"You don't believe that I am imprisoned here to prevent Fallen Immortal from achieving Yuan Shen." Mirage said, "But, do you think I am the only one in this world? Let me tell you, there are ancient beasts imprisoned in Kyushu. They may not have hindered others from achieving spirituality, but they have weaved a beautiful dream for you."
"I'll take you to see it."
But she saw that the mirage suddenly exhaled a breath of mirage. The mirage enveloped Zhao Ning and did not cause any harm to Zhao Ning. However, it forcibly stripped Zhao Ning's consciousness from her body. The soul opened her eyes, with a golden and clear halo. Surrounding Zhao Ning, there is a humanoid creature in front of him. He can't see its appearance clearly, but Zhao Ning knows that the thing in front of him is a mirage.
It said to Zhao Ning, "Come on, little one, follow me."
It flew upwards, and Zhao Ning followed it upwards.
The strange thing is that they are no longer in the sea at this moment, but in a deep void, and the mirage is still floating upward with Zhao Ning.
The white mist lingered around Zhao Ning's body, resisting the erosion of the soul by the void.
Zhao Ning saw patches of intertwined invisible skies. From the ground, it seemed that tomorrow would be complete, but here, the overlapping sky seemed like an endless river of intertwined time.
But underneath this, there is a palace.
Zhao Ning knew that this palace was the Heavenly Palace, and his calm restraint there was the essence of the Heavenly Palace.
Mirage said to Zhao Ning, "Have you seen the light on the Heavenly Palace?"
Of course I saw it. It was the bound Golden Crow in the Heavenly Palace. It was tied up and imprisoned on the top of the Heavenly Palace. The light on its body was so dazzling when viewed so close.
Is it also like a mirage, trapped there, guarding something?
But isn’t it integrated with the Heavenly Palace?
Mirage said to Zhao Ning, "Have you seen the sun?"
Zhao Ning paused for a moment, as she seemed to have guessed something in Mirage's question.
But I didn't dare to imagine this moment.
He didn't say anything, but Mirage was determined to reveal the truth.
"You haven't seen it. If the sky in Kyushu is broken, how can there be any sun?"
Zhao Ning's eyes fell on the golden crow again.
Therefore, the sun that Kyushu sees is...
"It's it..."
"Hahahaha." Mirage laughed, "Smart little guy, this is the truth, do you understand it now?"
Zhao Ning stood there, her eyes were empty, her thoughts were frustrated, and her mood was shaky.
At first, it may not be possible to understand why the elders of Tianji Palace fell into a state of madness. It is just that Kyushu is the middle state among the nine continents. It is just that Kyushu was isolated by Jiuzhou and became a land of demons. It was just that Jiuzhou was abandoned by Jiuzhou and became a place of exile. But so what, if the great road continues, you can also attain enlightenment.
However, now, the way of heaven is controlled by man, the great road is cut off, and the so-called enlightenment is nothing but illusion.
Helplessness, collapse, despair...all negative emotions are intertwined in my heart.
