Qingmei helped Lu Chan clean up Zhao Gongming's men, and then began to search the various palaces on Balcony Mountain.
After all, Zhao Gongming is the famous God of Wealth and has collected many treasures. The gold and silver jewelry that Lu Chan and Qingmei saw in the side hall were only part of them.
Qingmei searched around and found a lot of money.
Lu Chan came to the hub of the Yangtang Mountain Mountain Protection Formation and saw a circular array plate with many runes carved on it. Dozens of fairy spirit veins were connected around the array plate. He put the immortal spirit veins into the jade purification bottle and put away the array disk. Then he saw the crystal red jade underneath the array disk.
Only a little bit of this piece of red jade is exposed, but I don't know how big it is underneath.
Lu Chan took a closer look and found that the crystal red jade contained tiny runes. Some runes were familiar, some seemed familiar, and some had never been seen before.
"This is a treasure and it needs to be dug out."
He waved his hand and turned into a sword, peeling off the floating soil around him, revealing a huge jade stone. This jade stone was different. It was originally buried in the soil and was inconspicuous. After it was dug out, it became very dazzling. It was large and round, with a diameter of about 30 meters. meters, it looks like a little sun from a distance!
"Interesting, what on earth is this?"
Lu Chan looked over and over, and the more he looked, the more surprised he became: "This is not a naturally formed jade, but a treasure polished by man. The runes inside are not innate, but are appearances derived from the constraints of the laws of heaven." . Could it be said that this jade is a model of the avenue left by the ancient immortals?"
Regardless of whether you are a witch cultivator, an immortal cultivator, a Buddhist cultivator or a demon cultivator, if you have reached a very high level in your cultivation, you will reach the same goal through different paths and reach the peak, you will all face the same situation. You need to build a model of the great avenue and explore the principles of the evolution of the way of heaven.
Lu Chan thought to herself: "It is said that Yangtang Mountain evolved from a golden crow that fell from the sky after Hou Yi shot the sun. But I have seen the skeleton of the golden crow at the bottom of Tang Valley, which is completely different from the Hunyuan jade ball in front of me. .”
He thought of the famous myths in history, "Xi He bathed in the sun" and "Chang Xi bathed in the moon".
Legend has it that the ancient emperor Di Jun had two wives, one named Xihe and the other named Chang Xi. Xihe gave birth to ten suns, and Chang Xi gave birth to twelve moons.
This myth is very strange. No matter how powerful Xi He and Chang Xi are, how can they bathe the sun and moon in the soup valley? Moreover, it is said that inside every sun, there is a golden crow. What is going on?
Lu Chan thought about it and came up with an explanation, that is, what Xi He and Chang Xi bathed in was not the sun and moon, but the avenue model refined by Di Jun himself! Emperor Jun asked the Golden Crow to fly in the sky holding the model of the avenue in order to let the jade ball bathe in the clear sky, clear sun, breeze and bright moon, and better absorb the laws of heaven.
If you think about it this way, this huge jade ball is very valuable.
"Perhaps Zhao Gongming can become an Immortal King because of this jade ball."
"The question is, Di Jun carefully crafted the Immortal Jade Ball, why didn't he take it back in the end?"
So far, the Lu family has sent many immortals to search for Emperor Jun all over the world, but they have not found this person, nor have they found the two ancient female immortals Xihe and Chang Xi.
When Lu Chan thought about it, Emperor Jun did not take back the Dao model. One possibility is that Emperor Jun fell during the Red Ming Tribulation. Another possibility is that he did not fall and deliberately released the jade ball to let it live in the world for many years. After waiting for a period of time, it is like ancestor Hongjun releasing nine jade discs of good fortune. There are hidden secrets in them that cannot be stated clearly.
Qingmei finished cleaning all the palaces, stood on the mountain and looked down, and found that the market at the foot of the mountain was completely empty, and all the immortals who had gathered there had fled.
After all, the fighting on the mountain was too loud, especially after Lu Chan took away the formation disk and the fairy spirit veins. The mountain-protecting formation stopped operating, and Zhao Gongming's men were killed, forming mushroom clouds. The immortals at the foot of the mountain saw the image of the immortal falling, and became alert and fled the place in a hurry.
Lu Laoquan was still waiting at the foot of the mountain. He drove the hunting chariot with all the beasts and did not enter the market.
Lu Chan and Qingmei came down from the mountain and entered the chariot.
The two demon tigers dragged the chariot forward.
Zhao Gongming originally had a black tiger mount with a relatively high level, which was included in the Purple Gold Bowl and the Shennong Cauldron together with him.
Lu Chan was studying the runes on the jade ball in the carriage and heard Zhao Gongming's low pleading voice from time to time.
"Please ask the immortal to help me. It is not easy for me to make this body. I am willing to offer treasures to redeem myself!"
Lu Chan left him alone for a day, then heard Zhao Gongming's voice getting lower and lower,
"Exalted Immortal, please hold on! Even if you don't pity me, you should think about it. The treasures on my body are about to be refined."
Lu Chan asked: "What treasure do you have? If there is really something good, I might not be able to let you go."
Zhao Gongming said: "If the Immortal can release me, I am willing to give you 10,000 fairy beads, plus some precious news. I guarantee that you have never heard of it elsewhere."
"what news?"
"About the news about Ancestor Hongjun's preparations for the Heavenly Court. I am a disciple of Lingbao Tianzun, and was chosen by Ancestor Hongjun to be the righteous god of wealth, one of the eight righteous gods of the Shenxiao Heavenly Court after the Tribulation of the Divine Court."
"When will the Tribulation of the Divine Court end?"
"It will last at least three thousand years. Ancestor Hongjun erected an "immortal calamity monument" in Jiuniao State to show how many immortals died during the great calamity. After the immortals died, they would be recorded on the jade disk of creation. Only the remnant souls entered The jade plate of good fortune is the real fall."
"Where is the Immortal Tribulation Monument?"
"In the place where Jiu Niao State and China are combined. Ancestor Hongjun rebuilt the Kunlun Mountain there. It has a radius of 100,000 miles and a mountain high of 10,000 feet. It is divided into 36 floors. Above the top of the mountain is the heaven. To the east of the Kunlun Mountain is the original of Middle-earth.”
Lu Chan asked: "What is the situation in China now?"
Zhao Gongming replied: "It's hard to explain in one sentence. I have several 'picture stones' that record the images of Kunlun Mountain and the Middle Earth. If the immortal can let me go, I am willing to give the picture stones to you."
"Wait a minute, I still have some questions. What secrets do you know about Patriarch Hongjun and several cult leaders?"
"I know a big secret. The key to the reason why Patriarch Hongjun can control the world and control Taishang Laojun, Lingbao Tianzun, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jieyin Taoist and Zhunti Taoist is that he has two artifacts. In addition to the jade plate of creation In addition, there is another divine weapon that few people know about."
"What artifact?"
"The Chaos Bell is the secret that governs the "time and space" of the three thousand avenues. It has the power to suppress chaos, reverse time and space, refine yin and yang, and reverse the world."
Lu Chan frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Are you talking about the Chaos Bell? Not the Donghuang Bell?"
Zhao Gongming replied: "The Donghuang Bell is a magic weapon refined by Donghuang Taiyi and has only 46 levels of restrictions; the Chaos Bell is an innate spiritual treasure spit out by Chaos Qinglian. It is said that it has 50 levels of restrictions, and the last level of restrictions is The law of time.
Ancestor Hongjun sat firmly in the Lingxiao Hall of Heaven. Every once in a while, he struck the Chaos Bell. The sound of the bell spread far and wide, spreading throughout the world, and the "wave of calamity" it brought made thousands of gods and Buddhas afraid.
It was precisely because of the influence of the calamity wave that the Immortal family won the Great Catastrophe of Conferring Gods, forcing the Five Emperors of Green, Red, Yellow, White and Black to escape far away.
It was precisely because of the Chaos Clock that the leader of the Three Purities and the Second Saint of the West bowed to Patriarch Hongjun. "
Lu Chan frowned: "So, with the Chaos Clock, Ancestor Hongjun can control the entire world? No one can challenge his superior status?"
"Yes, it is precisely because he has the Chaos Bell and the Jade Disc of Creation that he gave away all kinds of treasures to the immortals at Fenbaoyan. No matter how powerful the other Immortal Kings and Emperors are, they cannot escape his grasp."
"Zhao Gongming, I heard that you were originally one of the eight great ghost commanders, a disciple of Ancestor Minghe. After turning from Yin to Yang, you switched to the sect of Lingbao Tianzun. Could it be said that even Ancestor Minghe is afraid of the Chaos Bell? "
"That's natural. Otherwise, why would he hide in the underworld?"
"How virtuous and capable is the ancestor Hongjun? Why can he get the Chaos Bell and the Jade Disc of Creation?"
"I heard that Pangu fell after the creation of the world. Ancestor Hongjun followed closely behind, stood out from the three thousand gods and demons, and accidentally came to the bank of Luoshui. By chance, he picked up a batch of treasures."
"Then he's so lucky!"
Lu Chan got out of the chariot, jumped to the distance, chanted a spell, and released Zhao Gongming: "Hand over the treasures you carry with you, and I will let you go."
Zhao Gongming did not resist. He opened his mouth and spit out a Qiankun bag, saying: "All the gold and silver jewelry I have collected for many years are here. There are more than 10,000 fairy beads in it. There are also some magical weapons and heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
Lu Chan said: "I want the secret skills you learned from Ancestor Minghe and Lingbao Tianzun."
Zhao Gongming spit out a string of jade slips.
Lu Chan accepted the jade slip and waved his hand: "Let's go, King Zhao Xian."
Zhao Gongming said: "May I ask the name of the Supreme Immortal?"
Lu Chan said: "Anonymous."
Zhao Gongming twitched the corners of his mouth, cupped his fists and cupped his hands, turned around and left.
Lu Chan knew in his heart that a person like Zhao Gongming, as one of the eight righteous gods in preparation, often has avatars elsewhere and is difficult to completely eliminate. In this case, let him go. There is no need to break his promise. .
After waiting for a while, Lu Chan returned to the chariot and looked at the exercises recorded in the jade slips.
Lu Laoquan urged the chariot to move forward.
In the year 703 of the Shentei Calendar, they arrived at the edge of the Seven Birds State, climbed over a volcano that stretched thousands of miles, and arrived at the Eight Birds State.
Compared with Qiniao Prefecture, Eight Bird Prefecture has richer immortal spiritual energy, dense immortal energy, abundant resources and natural treasures, and the immortals who can settle here have higher abilities.
Lu Laoquan put the corpse of Xingtian and the corpse of Xingtian into a gourd filled with fairy water, leaving only Chi You's hand to guard him. He also changed his appearance, from a corpse cultivator to a pure Yang. True fairy.
Lu Chan and Qingmei came out of the chariot, showing their status as immortal kings. They were surrounded by layers of protective aura, and there were Qingyun formed by the laws of heaven above their heads, which made people intimidated and did not dare to invade.
In this way, you will encounter less resistance moving forward. Otherwise, relying on Lu Laoquan alone, it would be difficult to move forward in the Eight Birds Realm.
They walked in Yatori State for half a year and found a relatively remote wilderness.
Lu Chan rolled the earth into a mountain and whipped the mountain to drive the sea, creating a fairy mountain and drawing the spiritual veins to form a fairy formation.
He named this base "Yunji Villa".
Five years later, the Immortal Formation took initial shape, with 42 levels of restrictions.
Later, the descendants of the Lu family arrived here through the teleportation array. While they buried the immortal jade ball underground to derive the fairy spirit veins to further enhance the level of the array, they also released mechanical mosquitoes and flies to explore the Eight Birds State.
In the 730th year of Shenting's calendar, the mountain protection formation of Yunji Villa was upgraded to the 47th level.
Lu Qingshan and Mei Lingshang came to take charge.
At this time, Lu Qingshan has become an Immortal King, while Mei Lingshang is in the middle stage of Immortal King.
Lu Qingshan brought the latest generation of five-color divine light exciter. After years of development and research, he achieved a major breakthrough in quark-level nuclear fusion, and the power of the developed five-color divine light was greatly improved.
At this time, the mechanical mosquito brought back a lot of information.
Mei Lingshang organized the information and wrote a report to submit to Lu Chan.
"Hatsutori State is a vast territory, covering an area equivalent to 130 Earths. On this vast land, there are 3,000 middle- and high-level Immortal Kings. These Immortal Kings rely on their own strength to enclose and divide their spheres of influence and establish There are many sects and immortal cultivating families, among which the more famous ones include Shaoyang Sect, Zhengyang Sect, Chunyang Sect, Ziyang Sect, Chongyang Sect, Yunyang Sect, Jinshan Sect, Hunyuan Sect, Nanwu Sect, Qingjing Sect, and Jinhui Sect. , Zhengyi Sect, Qingwei Sect, Xuanwu Sect, Jingming Sect, Nihility Sect, Yunhe Sect, Yuxian Sect, Lingbao Sect, Taiyi Sect, Zhengyi Sect, Vacuum Sect...
In addition to these sects, there are also three top forces, namely Taishang Laojun's Bajing Palace, Lingbao Tianzun's Biyou Palace, and Yuanshi Tianzun's Yuxu Palace...
Here is a map that has just been produced, indicating the spheres of influence occupied by each faction..."
Lu Chan listened to Mei Lingshang's explanation and looked at the map.
Mei Lingshang continued: "Because there are so many powerful forces on the road, it is difficult to move forward. Many immortals sent by our Lu family died in the Eight Birds Prefecture. In addition, from the Eight Birds Prefecture to the Nine Birds Prefecture There is an artificial gap between them, which prevents immortals from crossing the two states. So far, no one from the Lu family has been able to enter the Nine Birds State."
Lu Chan asked: "Since many immortal kings have tried to establish bases here, which is like a prison, is this catastrophe about to end?"
Mei Lingshang said: "The tree is about to be quiet but the wind is not stopping, and the great catastrophe is in the ascendant. Recently, I heard a news that ancestor Hongjun launched the 'Shenting Tribulation', not only to unite the immortals in the world, but also to bring peace to all major Martial arts arrange order.
The heavenly order under preparation includes three 'divine gates', nine 'holy gates', one hundred and eight 'immortal gates', eight hundred side gates and three thousand left paths. "
Lu Chan asked: "What criteria are used to classify sect levels?"
Mei Lingshang replied: "It is said that it depends on how many immortals are killed during the great tribulation. The more immortals killed, the higher the ranking of the sect and family."
Lu Chan said: "I understand. After those immortals were killed, part of their souls entered the jade plate of creation. The more people died, the stronger the control of Ancestor Hongjun. If all the immortals in the world died, their The remnant soul is put into the Jade Disk of Creation, so Ancestor Hongjun can control the world as he pleases."
At this time, Lu Qingshan said: "Dad, this matter is a bit troublesome. Some of the fallen immortal clones of our Lu family have also been included in the jade plate of creation. If things go on like this, it will be difficult for the Lu family to get rid of ancestor Hongjun. Restrictions. Fortunately, we thought of a way to counter the jade disc's absorption of souls. We issued a special 'soul jade' to each clan member. Relying on those soul jade, we, the immortals of the Lu family, escaped disaster. .Only a few people’s remnant souls enter the jade plate of creation.”
Lu Chan knew about this. "Soul Jade" was jointly developed by Mei Lingshang, Yuan Qingyue, Nie Fengzhu and mathematician Lu Qiusheng. The soul jade is originally a fairy jade, as big as a soybean grain, with runes carved on it, forming a special runic array space structure that can hide the soul inside.
