"Brother, how's the situation in the north going? Do you have any latest news?"
In the stone house outside, Zhu Changxing and Shu Heng sat across from each other and asked.
Shu Heng shook his head and said: "The news came back half a year ago, saying that the two sides were in a stalemate. It was difficult to tell the difference for a while. I don't know how long this battle will last..."
"Stalemate? Impossible. Didn't we also call overseas islands this time? Coupled with so many disciples of our sect in Dongling, has the demon clan actually grown to such an extent?" Zhu Changxing said in disbelief.
"Hey! I don't know something. The call was called, but the number of people who responded was very limited. Moreover, you may not know that each sect in Dongling also has its own small thoughts and did not devote all the low-level disciples to it. Fighting, this caused the casual cultivators in the battlefield to feel dissatisfied, lack of fighting spirit, and some even retreated..." Shu Heng said with some shame.
"It's...it's already this time, and everyone is still playing their own games. Do we really have to wait for the demons to invade Dongling? You know, the low-level war zone is the foundation of the formation. Once the central pillar of light is destroyed, , the Divine Pillar of Light on the intermediate battlefield will also be greatly affected. By then, the intermediate battlefield will lose its deterrent effect!" Zhu Changxing said angrily.
"And the intention of the demons is also very obvious. It is clear that they want to destroy the pillar of light in the low-level battlefield, and then open the mid-to-high-level battlefield to achieve twice the result with half the effort? Can't everyone see it?"
The three battlefields are interconnected from low to high.
If the pillars of light on the low-level battlefield are destroyed, the power of the pillars of light on the intermediate battlefield will be halved. If the intermediate-level pillars of light are destroyed, the power of the pillars of light on the high-level battlefield will also be halved.
When the Divine Pillar of Light in the advanced battlefield was also destroyed, the Universal Space Formation was completely destroyed.
At that time, there will no longer be any obstacles in the sea of demons, and the demons will be able to march straight in to the mainland of Dongling.
Therefore, although the low-level battlefields involve low-level monks of Golden Core and below, they are related to the fate of the human race. Once it is revealed, it will affect the intermediate and even high-level battlefields.
"Everyone at the top of the six major sects understands this, but with such different intentions, we in the Lotus Realm dare not send out all the low-level disciples! Otherwise, even if we win, we in the Lotus Realm may fall into After thousands of years of downturn, if other realms take advantage of it again..." Shu Heng said helplessly.
"Brother Shu, I really have to talk about you. Are there intact eggs under the overturned nest? It's already this time. Why are you still thinking about the downturn of thousands of years? If the demon army really comes in and puts the battlefield on hold. In our Dongling Continent, it will not take thousands of years for the mountains and rivers to overturn and the spiritual veins to be faulted...!"
"Brother, don't be anxious. The matter has reached this point and must be resolved as soon as possible. We are already discussing the matter. I believe there will be a result soon. By then..."
The two chatted for a long time before Shu Heng walked out of the stone house, let out a depressed breath, and then headed south in a flash.
Several stone houses also returned to peace.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
Within the secret realm No. 5.
The stone tablet in front of Lu Li had disappeared, and Lu Li was lying on the grass, his eyes lightly closed, breathing evenly, as if he was asleep.
In fact, Lu Li did not fall asleep, but went to the Time Palace.
The stone tablet was also moved to the Temple of Time Square by him at this time. Lu Li's mirror image was sitting cross-legged in front of the stone tablet, emitting a faint glow, giving people a mysterious and mysterious feeling.
This stone tablet is indeed a magical tablet.
But unlike the gold and jade flakes that Chen Zhong gave him, this monument required him to inject the power of light to activate it, and at the same time realize the artistic conception expressed in those scrawled lines.
This was the result that Lu Li came up with after several experiments.
However, the remaining magical power on it was the same as the 'One Hammer to Separate Worlds', which was very mysterious and obscure, so that he could only see its form, but could not understand its spirit for a long time.
In order to save time, Lu Li simply moved the stone tablet to the Time Palace.
In this way, he would have enough time to comprehend this magical power.
But what makes him a little depressed is that half a year has passed in the outside world, and it has been equivalent to fifteen years in the Time Palace, but he has still barely touched the threshold, not even a real entry.
The ninth forbidden area.
The warm sunshine of early autumn falls on the pear orchard, and the enduring pear blossoms exude a pleasant fragrance.
Shu Heng was busy working in the courtyard. He held a delicate carving knife in his hand and was carving carefully on a blue and gray wooden branch. He was extremely careful every time he dropped the knife.
Not long after, a human-shaped outline appeared on the wooden branch in his hand.
After a few more cuts, the appearance of a woman was roughly revealed. However, just when he was about to continue carving the woman's face, the carving knife suddenly froze in mid-air and could not fall down for a long time.
"Hey, I'm getting old... I can't remember your face anymore."
Shu Heng sighed secretly, moved the carving knife elsewhere, and continued to carve carefully, but not long after, he stopped again and looked outside the courtyard gate.
After a few breaths, a beautiful figure finally came to the door of the courtyard: "Senior, I'm busy. Can I come in?"
A sweet voice like a silver bell sounded immediately, and Shu Heng smiled, "You're welcome, just come in."
Then he pointed to the small chair opposite: "It's a little dirty, please clean it up yourself."
Weiyue nodded, cleared away the sawdust with a wave of her hand, and then sat down on her own: "Senior, what are you carving?"
Shu Heng looked at the faceless woodcarving woman in his hand, sighed and said, "An old friend is no longer alive."
Weiyue was stunned and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't know..."
Shu Heng waved his hand: "It's okay, it's not a taboo thing. I haven't seen you for a long time, are you busy practicing, right? Let me tell you, a person's lifetime, cultivation is really not that important, you should cherish it more The good times in front of you are the ones...otherwise, some things will pass by in a flash, and if you want to find them again, it will be too late..."
Weiyue smiled lightly and said: "Junior understands, but I can't just follow him like a follower. Isn't this annoying?"
"Besides, even if I am willing to follow you into the secret realm, I'm afraid Senior Liu won't agree."
"You girl, you are really smart! But you are right, that secret realm is really not accessible to ordinary people. Moreover, it is the Light Spirit Root Secret Realm. You can't gain anything if you go in."
Shu Heng said with a smile, and then said: "Do you have anything important to do with me? If not, I'm afraid I will have to miss you for a while."
Weiyue said quickly: "To be honest with you, senior, I do have something that I want to ask you for help with."
