The carp spirit was so happy that it stopped beating, and the invisible waves disappeared. At this moment, the mirage consciousness suddenly moved, and the shell in the carp spirit's hand suddenly disappeared.
The mirage hummed twice and was about to catch the shell proudly.
He didn't want the mirage to stop three feet away from him. The next moment, a ray of silver descended steeply, carved into its body, and imprinted the word "sealing" on it.
The word "Feng" disappeared in a flash, and Mirage's magic power froze for a moment, and then returned to normal, like an illusion. But the mirage knew that the terrible guy who dragged it back from the time ruins put a ban on it, let alone getting the shell back. Unless it was facing the Fallen Immortal, it would just be a big clam in front of the carp spirit.
If you had known better, you would have been honest. Mirage was extremely depressed.
In the sky of Falling Immortal Realm, clouds floated, supporting Zhao Ning and Qin Keyuan slowly forward.
Zhao Ning looked at the blue sky beyond the clouds, "Uncle Master, is the real sky like this?"
"Of course." Qin Keyuan said, "This is what it should be like."
Zhao Ning thought of the truth she learned from Mirage before she was inspired by divinity, "Uncle Master, is the whole of Kyushu really just a dream of greatness woven by Tiangong?"
"Zhao Ning, do you think this dream is fake?"
Zhao Ning shook his head, "I don't know. I only know that from the moment I came into contact with the immortal method and learned about the world of cultivation, I have been moving towards the four words of 'Longevity and Longevity'."
"Then Master Uncle tells you that the whole of Jiuzhou is indeed living in a dream of the Great Dao. Will you be sad?" Qin Keyuan said suddenly. Zhao Ning was startled and only raised her eyes to look at him, listening to what he said, "Choose to use the Spiritual Root Dao from Tiangong to speed up." The speed of cultivation among cultivators in Jiuzhou has prompted more and more people to form golden elixirs. For most people in Jiuzhou, this avenue is just a dream."
Zhao Ning's heart tightened, she subconsciously approached, and subconsciously reached out to grab something, but what she grabbed was a sleeve of Qin Keyuan's.
So the thousands of words of doubt turned into three simple words, "Why?"
"Because I want to break the deadlock in front of me." The clouds lost their wind and seemed to have stopped in the sky. Qin Keyuan looked down at her, "Because I don't want the descendants of Kyushu to still be trapped like this after tens of thousands of years. Jail. It’s just that they were too impatient.”
He held Zhao Ning through his sleeves and walked on the clouds with Zhao Ning.
"The ancient path is the orthodox path passed down from ancient times. It is the path that countless ancestors have proved to be the most consistent with the way of heaven. However, in the practice of the ancient path, cultivating the mind is the most important, followed by practice. Therefore, sometimes it is possible to have a breakthrough in the state of mind and realize several realms in an instant. , but the ancient road was full of setbacks and disasters. If one's mind was not firm and his character was not upright, it would be easy to go astray or die prematurely."
"Every breakthrough is a test of one's character and a realization of the great road. The difficulty of the road cannot be summed up in words. Throughout the ages, one person among a thousand people enters the ancient road, and among ten thousand people on the ancient road, one person can break through and practice Qi, and surpass The higher you go, the more difficult it becomes. If you want to cultivate a high-grade golden elixir and achieve the Purple Infant of Heaven within tens of thousands of years, you can imagine how difficult it will be."
Zhao Ning understood that if she had not been quite talented when she first entered the ancient Tao, and had the guidance of her master uncle when she first entered the Tao, coupled with the opportunities she got from disasters time and time again, Zhao Ning would have been wiped out long ago.
Qin Keyuan said again, "But the Spiritual Root Avenue is different. It has been studied by everyone in Tiangong for thousands of years. It is achieved through the innate Five Elements Spiritual Root Avenue. As long as you have spiritual roots, you can practice it. As long as the spiritual root is pure, you can practice it. It's so fast that it doesn't take a hundred years to form an elixir. What's more, as long as it is a Tianling root or a single spirit root, the probability of forming a high-grade golden elixir is at least 50% higher than usual.
Therefore, it does not take tens of thousands of years to cultivate on the Spiritual Root Avenue, but only a few thousand years, and they can obtain hundreds of high-grade golden elixir masters. "
"Are these high-grade golden elixir masters just to break the deadlock in Jiuzhou?" Zhao Ning asked.
"Yes." Qin Keyuan replied, "The time of the time ruins occurs once every five thousand years, which is also the time of the catastrophe of the Nine Provinces. When the time ruins are weak, the lowest-grade golden elixir real person can enter. Similarly, the demons can also enter through the time ruins. These must be Only when the demon is strangled in the ruins of time can Kyushu be prevented from starting another great destruction."
Zhao Ning was stunned.
Qin Keyuan did not hide it. He said, "Jiuzhou, also known as Zhongzhou, is the core of the entire Jiuzhou Demon Sealing Formation. Once the devil's offensive cannot be resisted and hundreds of millions of creatures in Jiuzhou become demonized, the Jiuzhou Demon Sealing Formation will automatically open and cleanse Everything in Kyushu.”
Her lips moved, and Zhao Ning even forgot her words. At this moment, she even hoped that the news she heard a long time ago that "the great destruction is a war between heaven and man" was true, at least this way she would not be so desperate.
Zhao Ning grabbed his hand with her other hand and rested her forehead on his arm. Qin Keyuan raised his hand and pressed it on the back of her head.
Silent for a long time.
Zhao Ning raised his head, "The last great destruction was thirty to forty thousand years ago, so it was a failure that time."
"right."
"The last time, a hundred thousand years ago, it also failed."
"right."
Zhao Ning held his wrist tightly, her fingertips seemed to leave marks on his wrist.
She asked, "Uncle Master, that year in the Qingxiao Sect, were you also afraid that the Kunxu Rebellion would eventually be out of control and the demons would cause chaos in the entire Kyushu, causing the Kyushu Demon Sealing Formation to be activated again?"
Qin Keyuan patted her head and said, "Uncle Master didn't think so much at first."
Even though the news he heard at this moment was far more suffocating and more desperate than the news he heard from Mirage, Piansheng Zhao Ning only recovered after a moment of sadness.
Fortunately, my uncle is here. she thinks.
She let go of his wrist and continued to follow him on the clouds.
"So, the uncle said that the people in the Heavenly Palace are too impatient. It's because most of the real people who have been cultivated on the Spiritual Root Avenue are impetuous and have no strength. Facing the cunning extraterrestrial demons, or even just facing people in the evil way, they They are more likely to be contemptuous, arrogant, make mistakes, or even go to extremes. In fact, such a high-grade golden elixir master is not very helpful."
"If we look at numbers alone, it will indeed help. However, the battlefield environment is complex, and the opponents are extraterrestrial demons who are good at confusing people's hearts and stirring up malice. No matter how many there are, it will not help, and they may even stab people in the back."
Qin Keyuan said slowly, "Moreover, Jin Dan's promotion to Yuanying is the first test of character on the Spiritual Root Avenue. Most people will die at this level. No matter how many Jindan people there are, without Yuanying and Yuanshen, facing powerful The extraterrestrial demons and even the intruders from other worlds are just mantises trying to control the situation."
"But can't there only be nine souls in Kyushu?"
"This is the restriction and protection of Shixu. While suppressing the number of Yuan Shen in the Nine Provinces, it also prevents threats from more Yuan Shen outside the territory."
Zhao Ning suddenly realized that she was gnashing her teeth as she lowered her head. She complained in a low voice, "This mirage is so provocative! I almost fell into its trap!"
"What does it say? The Heavenly Palace restricts everyone's avenues, only to accumulate merit for themselves and return to Kyushu?"
"Uncle Master guessed it right with just one word."
Zhao Ning gradually slowed down and thought carefully, "Uncle Master, speaking of it, what Mirage said is not unreasonable. There is no conflict with preventing the great destruction and returning to Kyushu in disguise."
"Yes." Qin Keyuan responded.
He said, "Sometimes, we can't tell the difference between right and wrong, and it may even be a battle between right and wrong. The Heavenly Palace cuts off the avenue for most people, but it gives them tens of thousands of years of peace and contentment. ; Tiangong has deceived everyone from the truth, but it has also brought peace and tranquility to Kyushu. We cannot make judgments. Sometimes we are the beneficiaries, and sometimes we are victims. We cannot criticize Tiangong at this moment because we feel that our interests have been damaged. If you benefit from it now, praise the Heavenly Palace."
"That's too superficial and fickle." Zhao Ning said with a smile, "No need to judge. It's a long road to immortality. Just go on your own and have a clear conscience."
Qin Keyuan also smiled, "Then, we will see you forever."
"Uncle Master, you think so far ahead." Zhao Ning blinked and she teased, "Uncle Master, you only have a hundred years to live."
She took out her hand and patted him, "But don't worry, uncle, Zhao Ning believes that you will be able to successfully transform into a god."
He leaned closer and said, "Uncle, do you want to eat candied haws on a stick?"
This is because I wonder what Qin Keyuan's obsession is, whether he will become a child like Master Xiaoyi and have to eat candied haws.
Qin Keyuan didn't answer, but looked down with his hands behind his hands.
Zhao Ning looked down and saw that Qingxiao Island had arrived. The island was filled with laughter and lights, and everything was completely new.
She tilted her head and smiled, "Uncle, everything is waiting for your return."
But he said, "It's not just waiting for me."
With that said, he took Zhao Ning Yukong and appeared on the high cliff of Qingxiao Island.
They did not cover up their figures, and when the stream of light fell, they instantly attracted the attention of everyone on the island.
From surprise to joy.
Everyone shouted excitedly, "Master Zhao Ning!!! Chief Qin!!!"
They gathered together in unison and approached each other. They looked at each other and smiled before landing in the open space in the center of the island.
"Great, Master Shen, you are finally back." Surprisingly, it was Zhao Ning who worried them more.
"What's going on?" Zhao Ning asked curiously.
Li Yue wiped her eyes, her eyes red, "That day, after you and Master Ji pretended to go to the Hai Tomb, only Master Ji came back in a mess, looking desperate and helpless, but that frightened us."
Others rushed to say, "Uncle Ji almost sat on this open ground, crying loudly, blaming himself for not coveting the treasure of the sea tomb and letting you go to find the divine conch alone."
"He also said that when he arrived at the main chamber of Liulihai Tomb, he saw broken bones everywhere, signs of fighting, and even a few strands of your hair. He almost collapsed on the spot."
Zhao Ning: "..."
Zhao Ning was at a loss. She raised her head and looked at Master Qin subconsciously. She saw that Master Qin's expression was cold and seemed to have doubts.
So, Zhao Ning tried to argue a little, "It's... not that embarrassing."
But isn’t this a disguised admission?
The next moment, Qin Keyuan raised his eyes. Ji Xiu, who had been outside anxiously wanting to rush in, heard the disciples' descriptions and immediately wanted to run away with a few more legs.
The moment Qin Keyuan raised his eyes, he subconsciously took a step back and pulled Hong Jie and Ai Bai in front of him. Hong Jie and Ai Bai rolled their eyes at the same time.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Xiu knocked away the two of them uncontrollably and flew into the crowd on his own.
The disciples separated a path in a tacit understanding, allowing him to run to Qin Keyuan unimpeded.
Looking at his senior brother's cold eyes, Ji Xiu raised his heart and moved three feet closer. Suddenly he used his kung fu and knelt down, hugging his senior brother's thigh.
"Senior Brother, Junior Brother is really looking forward to your return."
"Brother, I am guilty and I repent."
Qin Keyuan's attempt to punish him was abruptly interrupted.
Qin Keyuan: "..."
Zhao Ning naturally tilted her head and hid it behind Qin Keyuan. In fact, her shoulders shook slightly to prevent herself from laughing.
But Zhao Ning saved face for him. The others were too familiar with him and did not hide it at all. They laughed so loudly that they could even hear it on the island next door.
"Didn't I kneel down a few days ago?" Qin Keyuan said, "Okay, get up."
"Okay." Ji Xiu patted his robe and stood up, took out the folding fan from his waist, opened it with a snap, turned his head and raised his eyebrows at everyone, his pride was palpable.
After the laughter, the central open space gradually calmed down. Qin Keyuan's eyes passed through these faces one by one. Most of them were familiar, but there were more or less traces of the past on their faces.
The disciples spontaneously moved in an orderly manner until they formed a uniform team of disciples.
Under the leadership of Ji Xiu, Hong Jie, and Ai Bo, everyone saluted Qin Keyuan in unison, with powerful voices.
"Congratulations - the return of the first one -"
Qin Keyuan did not move, Zhao Ning stood beside him, walking alone and bowing.
"Welcome—Uncle Master's return—"
As Zhao Ning started to speak again, dozens of people on the island echoed in unison.
"Uncle Master (First Seat)——Longevity and Longevity——"
Chapter 235
Ask about the state of mind hall.
Qin Keyuan took the lead, Zhao Ning and Ji Xiu were on both sides, and the rest of the Jindan masters were waiting in the center.
