The waterway was not directly accessible, and he didn't want to go, but the price offered by the figure on the bow was too tempting. In this era of war and chaos, it would be good to meet a boat passenger a day. This ferry trip was enough to pay the price. That’s a year’s worth of income.
Not to mention just going to the end of the river, he is willing to give the entire boat to the other party.
"Go as far as you can!" Lu Chen whispered, without turning around, just sitting cross-legged, thinking about his own path.
He has already been able to enter the Spirit King Realm, and he has been suppressing it. There is always a suspicion in his heart that the peak of the Spirit King Realm seems not to be the end yet.
He once asked Pavilion Elder, and later also asked top powerhouses such as Shen Qianjie, and the answers he got were without exception. He had never heard of anyone beyond the peak of the Spirit King realm within the Spirit King territory.
"But Bing Ning once told me not to step into the Spirit King Realm easily and stay more in the Spirit King Realm!" Lu Chen shook his head, recalling what Bing Ning had said in his mind.
As a descendant of the old beast god, Bing Ning woke up from the dust and saw more than those old immortals like Shen Qianjie. Lu Chen guessed that she must have a purpose for saying this.
After thinking for a long time, I didn't find any unusual path.
The boat went down the river and the wine was already warm. The boatman took off the wine bottle and said, "Brother, come in and have a drink to warm the wine first. It's cold on the river at night. Warm yourself up!"
"Yes!" Lu Chen nodded, stood up and walked into the cabin. He looked at the warm wine in the cup and drank it in one gulp. A stream of heat flowed down his throat, and his whole body suddenly felt warm.
"Brother, the boatman sees that you are not an ordinary person. With wars raging now, the imperial capital may not be safe!" the boatman advised.
"The war has stopped!" Lu Chen once again picked up the warm wine poured by the boatman.
"Brother is joking. The old man just came out of the town before he got on the boat. He heard that the war was very tragic. Outside the customs, hundreds of thousands of people died in the first battle. Oh, how miserable!" The boatman shook his head and sighed, picking up a cup. Wine, go to the bow.
"Heroes!" the boatman looked up at the sky and roared, "God, where are your eyes? Open them and see. Are there not enough hardships in this world? Can people still survive?"
Looking at the roaring boatman on the bow, the old captain's hair was flying in the river wind, with a look of reluctance.
After pouring the warm wine from the cup into the river, the old boatman was silent for a moment, as if thinking about it, and then returned to the cabin again.
"You made me laugh!" The old boatman clasped his fists, took the initiative to help Lu Chen, and gave him a toast.
"The boatman is also a person with stories?" Lu Chen asked casually.
When the old boatman heard this, a flash of vicissitudes of life flashed in his eyes, "Hey, I'm old, I'm old!" the boatman sighed.
"When I was young, I went to the battlefield and crawled out from the dead dozens of times. I watched the men around me fall one by one and die in front of my eyes but I could do nothing!"
Lu Chen was startled when he heard this. He didn't expect that the old man in front of him who made a living by rowing was actually a veteran. His eyes were full of respect, "Here's to you!"
"Haha, it's over. I was probably the only one who went to the battlefield with me back then. I couldn't stand it anymore and became a deserter!"
"Uh..." Lu Chen was speechless. He wanted to ask. Just after the toast, you told me that you were a deserter. Are you kidding me?
However, Lu Chen did not say anything. He also knew that if a soldier was not forced to do anything, who would be willing to be a deserter?
Anyone who is a soldier has the idea of going into battle to kill the enemy and honor his ancestors.
"Yes, after seeing each of my brothers fall in front of me, I couldn't bear it any longer, so I received some subsidies and left the military camp!"
"Captain, you are not a deserter!" Lu Chen said, feeling that the boatman was playing a trick on him.
"He didn't die on the battlefield. He was either a deserter or something. I don't know what happened to my son. The fighting at Dalinguan was too brutal. I'm afraid it will be difficult to see him again!" The old boatman drank the warm wine in one gulp and his face turned a little red. .
"Old man, don't worry, your son is safe and sound!" Lu Chen smiled.
The boatman said nothing and just nodded, thinking that the young man in front of him was comforting him.
The two of them just chatted away, and before they knew it, it was already late at night, and the boat entered a narrow river area.
Listen to the chirping of insects from the shore
Lu Chen could even see the water snakes swimming in the reeds from time to time and the mosquitoes flying by.
"Huh?" Lu Chen frowned and looked at a place among the reeds. A white snake with thick arms was slowly swimming out of its shed skin.
The cicadas kept chirping, slowly spreading their wings and flying up the tree trunk.
"Is this what it means to be neither broken nor established?" Lu Chen frowned. He once thought about not being broken and not established, but he still couldn't find the direction. Now, seeing the snake shedding its skin and seeing Zen spreading its wings, he seemed to have understood something, but he still couldn't put the last layer of the wall behind him. The membrane is pierced.
"What does it mean to be neither broken nor established?" Lu Chen stared at the river from the window in the cabin, staring at the white snake that was about to finish shedding its skin.
In the cabin, the old boatman couldn't help but smile when he heard Lu Chen's muttering to himself. He raised his head again and drank the wine in his glass. He was already a little drunk, "If you don't break or stand, you will be like a silkworm!"
"Silkworm?" Looking at the drunken and hazy old man, Lu Chen looked surprised.
"Well, silkworms spend their whole life dedicated. After five instars, they are changing themselves and their character at each instar. Isn't this what it means to be neither broken nor established? It once made a cocoon to bind itself, but eventually it turns into a cocoon and becomes a butterfly. Isn't this what it means to be neither broken nor established? ?」
Lu Chen recalled Silkworm's life in his mind, and with a flash of light in his mind, he took a step out of the boat.
"Hahaha..." Loud laughter rang out, a momentum rose into the sky, and the figure stood in the void.
The handprints changed, and there was only a click sound in his body, the sea of qi exploded, and with a muffled groan, Lu Chen's whole body became extremely weak, and all his spiritual energy disappeared.
The Seventh Life Immortal Body Skill was in operation, and a point of light gradually emerged in the Qi Sea. Lu Chen, who was seriously injured and dying, stabilized his figure, controlled himself to stand on the river, looked up at the sky, and in the dark, a strong sense of crisis came.
boom!
There was a sudden thunder in the dead night sky, and a bolt of thunder came from an unknown place in the deep space, and crashed down on the figure looking up at the sky below.
"Come on!" Lu Chen raised his head and looked up at the sky, roaring angrily, holding a long sword tightly in his right hand. In his mind, two figures sat cross-legged, "You've tricked your ancestors to death!"
The little one had a bitter look on his face, looking at the figure not far away who also had a painful look on his face.
"No. 1, you haven't said hello to your ancestors yet!"
When Chen heard this, he almost vomited blood. How long had it been? The little one was concerned about this, "Shut up!"
"Hmph, you are so stupid, you have to have your ancestors to protect you!" The little boy pinched his waist angrily.
"Ah..." As soon as he finished speaking, a scream rang out, and the hair all over the little boy's body instantly exploded, black smoke filled the air, and the entire sea of souls set off huge waves, like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.
"Condensation!" Lu Chen's handprint changed again. In the sea of souls, the little one, Chen Yi, and Jiuyou ghosts were spinning wildly, and finally merged into one in a weird way. Sometimes there was little one's milky cry, and sometimes there was Chen Yi's roar. Voice.
"Lu Chen, I'm going to kill you!" Chen Yi roared.
"The ancestors are going to kill you too!" The little one with a milky voice shouted incoherently.
"So is the punishment from heaven, break it with one sword!" Lu Chen looked up at the sky, looking at the thunder that was coming. He raised his long sword high and struck at the falling thunder with one sword.
As soon as the sword came out, the color of the sky and the earth changed, the river set off waves, and countless white lights rushed towards the falling thunder.
"Huh?" Lu Chen looked surprised, then laughed.
At the critical moment, the seventh-generation immortal body was running wildly, and he could be considered to have initially achieved the goal of neither breaking nor establishing. Unfortunately, in the end, it was only an increase in strength and did not break through the key barrier.
It wasn't until the divine punishment came and the faint trace of vitality contained in the thunder that he knew what he was missing.
Daoyun!
There is a lack of resonance with heaven and earth, a lack of understanding of heaven and earth, and punishment from heaven is undoubtedly the best opportunity for understanding.
The moment the long sword was swung out, Lu Chen felt his scalp numb, and countless white lights poured out from the long sword, densely packed, "Thunder Gopher!"
Lu Chen couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his throat felt dry.
"Damn it, why are you wasting my three trump cards if you don't fall asleep? Those were left by the old Fire King!" Lu Chen felt his eyes darkening.
big
Outside the pass, after three attacks, three powerful men in the Lingzong realm fell. Three heads soared into the sky in countless pairs of eyes, shocking the entire battlefield.
Seeing the dense crowd of thunder gophers rushing out of the thunder sword, he wanted to vomit blood.
The Heavenly Punishment suddenly fell with the terrifying power of heaven and earth, countless thunder gophers rose into the sky densely, and two giant pillars collided with each other in mid-air.
There was no shocking explosion as imagined, nor was there a one-sided decline.
When the thunder came, the Thunder Gopher seemed to have encountered a great source of nourishment, rushing toward the thunder above.
The bodies of the thunder gophers in front were expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye. Lu Chen was terrified when he saw them, fearing that they would explode and be strangled to death.
Fortunately, the Thunder Gopher in front was very conscious and retreated slowly when he was full, leaving a sip of soup for his companion.
Taking turns like this, the heart-shaking Heavenly Punishment was completely consumed by countless Thunder Gophers, and the Thunder Gophers almost swelled. Lu Chen was shocked when he sensed it. The strength of these Thunder Gophers could only be achieved through expansion. describe.
"Is this Daoyun? Is it the rule of heaven and earth?" Lu Chen whispered.
He couldn't see or touch it, but he could clearly feel that after the divine punishment, a mysterious force enveloped him and was slowly merging with him, repairing the injuries in his body. In the sea of qi, a point of light was condensing, and finally Condensed into a crystal.
Looking at the crystals at the position of the Qi Sea, a smile appeared on Lu Chen's lips, "This is neither breaking nor establishing, the spirit king realm, complete spiritual transformation!"
With his eyes closed tightly, he carefully understood the mysterious power that enveloped him, and felt the elusive Taoist charm. He could clearly feel that his strength was skyrocketing.
It's not that his cultivation level is improving, but his combat power is skyrocketing.
Click!
Another soft sound resounded inside the body. Lu Chen searched all over his body, no matter whether it was muscles, internal organs or bones, he couldn't find any signs of fragmentation, but he could hear the sound of fragmentation very clearly.
Even, it’s like it’s right next to your ears!
boom!
