In the year 805 of the Shenting Calendar, the Lu family's four exposed bases all upgraded their protective formations.
Among them, Yunji Villa is the focus of the Lu family's operations, because it is located in Yatiao Prefecture, surrounded by major forces, and faces the heaviest pressure. After nearly two decades of management by Lu Qingshan and Mei Lingshang, the mountain guarding array was upgraded to 49 levels of restrictions, second only to the 51 levels of restrictions outside Yuxu Peak.
The Black Tiger Villa in Qiniao Prefecture is a slightly lower level, and it also has a mountain protection formation with 48 layers of restrictions.
Although Fenghuang Villa in Si Niao Prefecture and Shenjian Villa in Chu Niao Prefecture were established early, because they face less pressure, they only have 47 restrictions so far.
After all, it is not that easy to upgrade the formation. It requires a variety of fairy materials and artifacts, including fairy fire, fairy water, and numerous fairy spirit veins.
Make bricks without straw.
Although the Lu family has mastered the dragon seal talisman and can carve the fairy jade ball to derive spiritual veins, carving the dragon seal talisman inside the fairy jade consumes immortal energy and cannot be carved with a fully automatic engraving machine.
Although the Lu family has many immortals, there are not many who can carve complex magic symbols. Those people are also busy practicing, so the number of immortal jade balls and immortal spirit veins born every year is limited.
Under such circumstances, when the Lu family arranges various bases, they must pay attention to priorities and cannot just pile them up without a plan.
So what is the Lord? What is the second time?
Needless to say, for the Lu family, the most important thing is Yuxu Peak. Yuxu Peak is the main one, Yunji Villa is the secondary one, and the other bases occupy a secondary position. These bases are like a long snake formation, with a hard head and tail and a relatively soft waist.
According to this layout, the Lu family will focus on strengthening Yuxu Peak and Yunji Villa, and try to improve the mountain protection formation as much as possible.
In addition to upgrading the level of the formation, Lu Chan also summoned more than a hundred immortals from various places to strengthen the defense of Yunji Villa.
A high-level fairy formation is important, but if there are not enough manpower, the effect of the fairy formation cannot be exerted. The last time the Lu family suffered a defeat at "Luming Villa", one of the important reasons was that there were too few immortals in the formation.
In the 810th year of the Shenting calendar, Yunji Villa raised the banner of the "Yunji Sect" and took the initiative to intervene in the world's great catastrophe and the disputes between various factions.
The immortal family calls the container for collecting books "Yunji".
There is an immortal scripture circulated in the immortal world, called "Seven Notes of Yunji", which is divided into seven parts "three caves and four auxiliaries".
The names of Yunji Villa and Yunji Sect were derived from this.
If you get involved in a dispute, people will inevitably die.
Under normal circumstances, if you kill one thousand enemies, you will suffer eight hundred losses. While killing opponents, members of the sect will also die.
If only the opponent dies without losing anything, Yunji Villa will become a "freak" and a thorn in the side of Ancestor Hongjun, facing a similar ending to Luming Villa.
The purpose of ancestor Hongjun's "Tribulation of the Divine Court" was to make many gods fight each other, and after the gods fell, part of their souls could be collected into the jade plate of creation.
If the "Yunji Sect" performs too well and no soul fragments enter the jade dish of creation from the beginning to the end, then Ancestor Hongjun will definitely send many disciples to try their best to get rid of the "Yunji Sect".
Although "Yunji Villa" took the initiative to intervene in the catastrophe, it did not want to bear the pressure of ancestor Hongjun, so Lu Chan adopted the "Li Dai Tao Zang" strategy proposed by Tang Qing'er, the 18th generation hostess of the Lu family, and ordered Lu Shanguan to get it from the underworld. Get a batch of wandering souls and old charms, put them in mutton-fat jade bottles and send them over.
Lu Shangguan was a former judge and had the skills of a high-level ghost king. He presented a batch of silverware to King Chu Jiang and captured a group of ferocious old demons from the eighteenth level of hell, as well as some criminals. There are even a few ghost generals who commit serious crimes.
After Lu Chan got the mutton-fat jade purification bottle, he handed it to Lu Qingshan and Mei Lingshang, and told them: "There are three thousand old demons in it. I put the Yin spirit stone in the jade purification bottle, and some semi-finished products The netherworld water and netherworld allow these old monsters to slowly advance into ghost generals and ghost immortals. After each fight, a dozen of them are released, and their soul fragments are collected by the jade disc of creation. In this way, maybe they can You can hide it from Ancestor Hongjun."
As a result, Lu Qingshan and Mei Lingshang followed the plan, and after every fight, some ghost fragments would be released.
This method is very simple and may not be able to achieve the purpose of concealing the truth or concealing the secret, but it is always good to delay for a while.
In addition, Mei Lingshang also divided Yunji Villa into two parts: light and dark. The main palaces and most of the personnel are located in the central core of the 49th floor formation, which is a deeply hidden dark area; a small number of palaces are located between the 42nd and 43rd floor formations, which are half-covered "light areas".
Lu Yuzhou and Jin Wanrong, the sixth generation descendants of the Lu family, have both been promoted to the realm of immortal kings. Together with the diplomat Lu Wenbo and several Da Luo Jinxian, they live in Ming District and are responsible for receiving visiting immortals.
Although the gods are in an "excited state" during the catastrophe, they often take action if they disagree. However, in addition to gods and demons, many gods are cultivated from humans and demons. Some gods can still communicate without completely erasing their humanity and losing their minds.
With Lu Wenbo taking the lead in negotiating, by being polite first and then fighting, and speaking well, he can turn some of the gods into friends. Another part of the gods had bad intentions and could not resolve their hostility, so they could only kill them with the help of the mountain guard formation.
Therefore, the image displayed by the "Yunji Sect" is relatively gentle, or it has yin and yang, a combination of hardness and softness, which is very different from the aggressive image of the "Luming Villa" back then.
"Luming Villa" kills fiercely and treats every immortal who breaks into the formation as an enemy. The purpose is to verify the power of the formation and quantify the strength of the immortals at each level.
The "Yunji Sect" raised its banner in Yatori Prefecture in order to gain a firm foothold, strive for more benefits, and focus on the layout after the catastrophe.
You must know that no matter how tragic the Shenting Tribulation is, it will end one day.
The general trend of the world is that if it has been divided for a long time, it must be united, and if it has been united for a long time, it must be divided.
When the great tribulation ends and the Heavenly Court is established, what will be the status of the Lu family? In the final analysis, it all depends on the strength of the Lu family's immortals, how many immortal emperors and immortal kings are born, and the performance of "Yunji Villa" in the Divine Court Tribulation.
*****
Ancestor Hongjun used his great magic power to recreate the Kunlun Mountain at the place where Jiu Niao State and the Central Plains merged. It has a radius of one hundred thousand miles and a mountain height of ten thousand feet. It is divided into 36 floors. There is a palace on the top of the mountain, which he named "Lingxiao". Treasure Palace".
There is a huge square outside the Lingxiao Palace.
There are three immortal jade steles erected in the center of the square, one of which is called the "Heavenly Tribulation Stele", which shows how many immortals in the world participated in the great catastrophe, and how many of them died and their souls were included in the jade plate of creation. The Heavenly Tribulation Monument shows the proportion of fallen immortals. The higher the proportion, the closer it is to the end of the Great Tribulation.
The second jade stele is called the "Feng Shen Bang", which specifically records fallen gods. Its essence is a jade disk of creation. It once appeared during the Conferring Gods Formation and absorbed the souls of many gods. It is called the "Feng Shen Bang". ".
In addition to this jade disk of good fortune, there are several jade disks of good fortune wandering outside. Every few hundred years they will be taken back by ancestor Hongjun, and the collected souls will be transferred to the jade tablet of the "Bang of Conferred Gods".
Only when the Immortal Cloud lags behind, and the soul and soul fragments enter the jade dish of creation, and then are transferred to the Jade Tablet of the Conferring Gods, can the purpose of integrating the gods in the world be achieved and all the gods be given seats. This process is euphemistically called "conferring gods".
Ancestor Hongjun set up the "Apotheosis of the Gods" in the square outside the Lingxiao Palace in order to inform the world, call a deer a horse, confuse the public, and regard the fall of the immortals brought about by the catastrophe as a "sacrifice of supreme glory and enjoyment of sacrifices" ".
The third jade tablet is called "Langya Bang", which records the immortals killed by various major sects and aristocratic families during the catastrophe, with the purpose of integrating the major forces.
Patriarch Hongjun has five disciples, namely Yuanshi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun, Taishang Laojun, Jieyin Taoist, and Zhunti Taoist. These disciples are all leaders-level figures. Because they are so famous, it is difficult to let go of their status. Stay in front of the ancestor and obey the ancestor's instructions at all times.
Ever since, Patriarch Hongjun has recruited another closed disciple in recent years.
This disciple's name is "Zhang Jian", also known as "Zhang Bairen". He endures what others cannot. He was originally a peasant village leader who managed the village in a very harmonious manner and was also very kind. Taibai Jinxing was very satisfied after observing it, so he brought him back.
Ancestor Hongjun saw that he had excellent qualifications and was obedient, humble, diligent, and good at serving others, so he accepted him as a closed disciple.
Zhang Jian was ordered by his ancestor to visit the jade tablet every month, record the important changes, and then make it into a "Jinlin Book".
In the year 825 of the Shenting Calendar, a batch of new editions of "Jinlin Books" flowed out from Jiu Niao Prefecture and spread to Eight Bird Prefectures, Qiniao Prefecture, and Liu Niao Prefecture.
This new edition of the Jinlin Book not only includes the "Top 100 Divine Artifacts", but also the "Fengshen List" and "Langya List". It is equivalent to a composite of the three major lists.
The three major lists are all dynamically changing, consistent with the Immortal Jade Stele outside the Lingxiao Palace.
Among them, there are a total of 3,000 top gods recorded on the "List of Conferred Gods", and the one ranked highest is Yuanshi Tianzun! Then there is Taishang Laojun, Lingbao Tianzun, Taoist Jieyin, Taoist Zhunti... Needless to say, although these are disciples of Patriarch Hongjun, their soul fragments were included in the Jade Butterfly Creation many years ago. Got it!
As for the "Langya List", it includes three major 'divine gates', nine major 'holy gates', one hundred and eight 'immortal gates', eight hundred side gates and three thousand left ways.
The upgrade of Jinlin Book seemed to add fuel to the fire, exacerbating the catastrophe in the world. In order to compete for rankings, many immortals and sect families took the initiative and tried every means to kill more immortals. As a result, the fighting became more and more fierce, and the world was in turmoil.
Lu Chan also bought a new edition of Jinlin Book and found that the "Yunji Sect" that had just raised its banner did not appear on the list, and it was not even counted among the three thousand heretics. Moreover, no one from the Lu family has entered the "God List" because no Immortal Lord or Immortal King has fallen yet. Even if they die, their souls can still hide in the soul jade in time, and will not be sucked away by the jade disc.
The days passed.
In the year 853 of the Shenting Calendar, the "Yunji Sect" killed the Immortal Lord "Tiangang Great Sage" and entered the list of the Three Thousand Righteous Dao.
Shenting calendar year 885. The "Yunji Sect" killed the "Jiutian Child Killer General" and ranked in the middle of the Three Thousand Left Path.
In the year 911 of the Shenting Calendar, the "Yunji Sect" killed Marshal Yisheng and ranked high among the three thousand hereditary factions.
In the 950th year of Shenting's calendar, the "Yunji Sect" killed Marshal Yousheng and finally entered the list of eight hundred side sects.
The "Yunji Sect" seems to be growing slowly, but it is actually the result of the Lu family's efforts to control it. They don't want it to be too famous, because the rafters at the top will die first, and there is no benefit in being at the forefront.
Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by, and many years pass in the blink of an eye. Unknowingly, it was 1380 in the Shenting calendar.
Inside Hongmeng Pearl, on Yuxu Peak.
This deity, Lu Cheng, has been in seclusion for 880 years, and finally made a breakthrough, integrating the six caves, and promoted to the realm of Immortal Emperor.
So, what is the realm of Immortal Emperor?
There are multiple signs of the Immortal Emperor realm.
First of all, the cave in the body is very vast and boundless. If it were stretched out, it would be equivalent to the stars in the sky.
Secondly, the cave world within the body has become substantial, has relatively complete laws, and can accommodate a large number of mortals and monks. In other words, Lu Cheng can integrate the Hongmeng Pearl and Yuxu Peak into the palm of his hand and travel around with tens of millions of people! From now on, there is no need to be trapped in the shadow of the chaotic Qinglian.
Thirdly, the Immortal Emperor's skill is extremely high, far beyond the level of "moving mountains and filling seas".
The first-level Immortal Emperor can pick the stars and the moon, control ten stars at once, and change their movement trajectories. High-level Immortal Emperors can control hundreds or even thousands of stars with just a wave of their hands.
Fourthly, the Immortal Emperor's words are made into a constitution, and his anger is soaring into the sky. Tang Zai is so emperor that he can create the laws of heaven at will. For example, Nuwa refines stones to mend the sky and rubs earth to create humans, which is the process of creating the laws of heaven.
Of course, the creation laws mentioned here refer to relatively simple laws. If it is a complex and rare law, even the Immortal Emperor may not be able to create it all at once. It often takes many years of research to establish a model of the avenue first, and then create it. Complex heaven.
The so-called "picking the stars and grabbing the moon" and "controlling the stars" do not mean smashing the stars, but changing the trajectory of the stars.
To use an analogy, the stars in the sky are like lead balls. They are easy to be pushed and should not be smashed. Because matter is immortal, some stars will collapse and change from red giants to white dwarfs or black dwarfs, which is equivalent to getting more familiar with each other the more they are smashed; some stars will explode and turn into molecular clouds if they are hit hard. Therefore, even the Immortal Emperor will not be bored and break the stars easily.
Finally, there is another point. Although the Immortal Emperor's skills are extremely high, he has not yet reached the state of omniscience, omniscience, and omnipotence. That kind of omniscient and omnipotent God does not exist. Otherwise, Patriarch Hongjun can completely control the world by himself. What meaning does the existence of other cultivators have?
The world has always been complex, with countless laws of heaven.
Of all the laws in the world, the most difficult to master are the laws of space and time.
Especially in the latter, the laws of time are extremely complex.
The essence of time is movement, which is the change of all things. Since change is perceived through observation, time is inseparable from human consciousness. Even the top immortal emperors and gods and demons can only master a few time talismans and cannot understand all the laws of time.
The Immortal Emperor can tear apart the void and travel to another plane, but he cannot reverse time and travel to the past and future at will.
Even if Lu Cheng has mastered many time talismans and space talismans, he cannot guarantee that he can go back to a certain time period in the past.
A new month is about to begin. Because my creation is getting slower and slower, and I don’t want to finish it in a hurry, I am going to slow down, write as much as I can, and update whenever I want. From the perspective of the completeness of the story, it is not yet the end, so readers are advised to read slowly. Writing slowly is not a bad thing, it is a reason to treat your work carefully.
