Ren Qing seemed to have fallen into a long and illusory dream, recalling in his mind every bit of the formation of the five methods of ascending to immortality.
In the eyes of others, the aura he exuded became extremely unstable.
From time to time, the aura of spells will burst out, making the rules in the restricted area of the Immortal Position elusive, twisted and disorderly.
Ren Qing's size is also expanding.
Song Zongwu looked at Ren Qing's position intentionally or unintentionally, and couldn't help but murmured to himself: "Have you started to become an immortal..."
He thought for a moment, then turned to face the heat in front of him.
Lord Huodexing's immortal position takes on the shape of a heart, which beats every few breaths, releasing an incalculable amount of terrifying heat.
Song Zongwu's skin and flesh had been damaged, revealing pale flesh and blood. Even with the healing speed of the Tianju Realm, the injury could not be completely healed.
He sat cross-legged in the magma, looking like a monster with its head peeled off.
The karma fire protected Song Zongwu's life, but the karma fire was very difficult to maintain, because the karma fire would swallow up the flame of Huode Xingjun, causing the total amount of karma fire to gradually increase.
Song Zongwuwei ensured that the fire of karma would not harm the body and soul, and could only restrain the magic, but correspondingly, he had to endure the burning every minute and every second.
Fortunately, during the hundreds of years he had been sleeping, he had already become accustomed to the pain caused by the flames.
Song Zongwu threw some pills into his mouth from time to time, but this could only ensure that the injury would not worsen. Next, he had to refine the immortal position as soon as possible.
He was just about to study Mr. Huodexing, when his expression suddenly turned strange.
Song Zongwu looked back, only to see a figure swimming towards him with difficulty. There was no aura in his body, but there was a pungent smell of incense.
Xiaoyan only had a skeleton left, and his internal organs were completely damaged. The magic he practiced prevented his soul from being dispersed by the flames, and his body mainly relied on the incense brought by the trance magic.
Obviously, Xiao Yan had no intention of leaving alive.
Either obtain the immortal position, or become a withered skeleton in Huode Cave, Song Zongwu's stepping stone to the immortal class.
"Why bother?"
"Maybe in a thousand years, Ren Qing can open up a new path to immortality."
Song Zongwu stared at Xiao Yan with a slightly complicated look, but without any sympathy in his heart, he directly used the technique to the extreme.
Chengxian Road is a single-plank bridge, and there are dead bones everywhere under the bridge.
Song Zongwu's body was filled with hot karma fire, his body expanded to over fifty meters, and his momentum reached its peak.
The magma couldn't help but surge up, and the temperature became even hotter. It was no longer possible to get within a hundred meters of the Ordinary Sky Strange Realm, otherwise the blood would probably boil like boiling water.
Xiao Yan's consciousness was blurred, but he still rushed towards Song Zongwu persistently.
boom! ! !
With just a muffled sound, Song Zongwu disappeared on the spot, like a sprinting swordfish, swimming quickly in the magma without any resistance.
The fist hit Xiaoyan's head hard, and the latter barely stretched out to resist, but what greeted him was the eight-armed Shura's continuous punches.
Song Zongwu is a martial arts fanatic, and he likes sparring the most on weekdays.
Many monks knew that if Song Zongwu had the upper hand, his attack would be like a violent storm, without giving him any chance to breathe.
Moreover, Song Zongwu is currently in the Heavenly Creation Realm, and his eight arms represent unstoppable melee attacks.
When Xiao Yan regained consciousness, only one-third of his body was left. Song Zongwu grabbed his spine with both hands and launched a new round of attacks on the joints of the bones.
"impossible……"
He opened his mouth, forcibly activated the trance technique, and allowed the scent of incense to infuse his body, creating a vague connection with Lord Huodexing.
boom! ! !
There was an explosion.
Song Zongwu was knocked away by the shock wave, but his expression remained calm.
The pain that has exceeded the limit is transformed into the strength to punch. Unless life ends, the fist will only get harder and harder.
Only by suffering all kinds of suffering can one avoid falling. This is the way of Shura.
The battle between the two in Huode Cave could be detected in the void.
The magma continued to explode and the air burned, causing Huode Cave to completely become a forbidden area for monks. It can be said that anyone who touches it will die.
The battle lasted for several days, waiting for the explosion to subside before the cave returned to silence.
Song Zongwu's body was riddled with holes, only half of his eight arms were left, his legs were amputated, and his vitality was weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xiaoyan was even worse, with just a head floating in the magma.
But even so, as his soul was about to dissipate, he still breathed out flames tirelessly, which showed that obsession supported instinct.
Song Zongwu laughed silently, grabbed Xiao Yan's skull with his intact palm, and then used the immortal key to open the door.
He had no intention of returning to the world in the stomach to recuperate, and casually threw the head in.
Xiao Yan taught Song Zongwu a lesson. It is not a good thing to have a retreat. Once a firm mind becomes shaken, failure is not far away.
Song Zong swam to the immortal throne without difficulty, closing his eyes and communicating with Lord Huo Dexing.
Threads of flame bypassed the pursuit and interception of Ye Huo and penetrated into Song Zongwu's body, destroying and nourishing the internal organs at the same time.
The winner walked across the single-plank bridge, while the loser was left in despair.
Xiaoyan's situation is slightly better. He has lost most of his three souls and seven souls. Even if he spends a lot of resources, he can only transform into a zombie.
Song Zong always kills people because the world in his stomach needs the monk's remnant soul.
Several fungus souls carried Xiaoyan and headed towards the depths of the mortal mountains.
Thousands of years after the development of the world in the stomach, due to the abundance of food, the population grew very rapidly, and there were countless villages.
The fungus soul took the head to an isolated mountain village.
You can see the Zisun Temple dedicated to the mountain god at the entrance of the village. The incense is pretty good, and old people come to take care of the temple every day.
Xiaoyan's remnant soul was put into the statue of the mountain god, and merged with the ghost and immortal duties.
Under the influence of the Ghost Immortal Duty, the remaining souls gathered into a ball, stopping the tendency of collapse and being nourished for a long time to recover.
Ren Qing once used Madam White Bone and other monks to refine pseudo-souls, hoping to breed some seeds of cultivation in the Heavenly Deception Realm.
The result was not very successful, as the pseudo-soul had too many limitations.
It is true that pseudo-souls can take advantage of the earthly immortal position to reincarnate, but their character is too extreme and they can easily go astray.
No matter how you look at it, it is a bit of a waste of the quota for the earthly immortal position. You must know that only those who have perfected the Yangshen realm in the Prison Hall are eligible to obtain the earthly immortal position.
If the pseudo-soul continues to be a mountain god, there will be no possibility of losing control.
Even the world in the stomach is still evolving under the way of heaven, and a system of incense and fire immortals has been born, which is closely related to the immortal duties.
Mountain gods and stream gods are the most basic grass and tree gods. They are all venerable mortals or the remnant souls of dead monks. They do not have any immortality.
When their accumulated incense reaches a certain level, Heaven can take the initiative to bless them, thus integrating into the lowest ghost-immortal job.
The mountain god will be promoted to the land god and manage the population within a hundred miles.
Further up is the city god who holds the position of human immortal, responsible for the towns and villages in an area.
There are two days for the City God to continue to advance to the level of judge and heavenly officer. The judge belongs to the underworld, while the heavenly officer is in the immortal department of heaven.
River Gods are promoted upwards, becoming the River God in the role of ghosts and immortals, and the River God in the role of human immortals.
The formation of Xianghuo Immortal is due to the initiative of Heavenly Dao to delegate power, making the operation of the world in the stomach more reasonable.
However, Ren Qing is currently in retreat, and Tiandao's authority can only build a framework, and Xianghuoxian's system seems very immature.
But this does not prevent the fungus soul from collecting the remnant souls of high-level monks to breed mountain gods and stream gods.
The monks in the Jailer Hall who can travel through the three realms have noticed the changes in the mortal world, and they can't help but have a premonition that the world in their stomachs seems to be about to change.
The transformation is likely to involve Ren Qing's attainment of immortality.
This is a great opportunity for one person to achieve enlightenment and for chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven.
Xiao Yan's death did not cause any disturbance in the Immortal Restricted Area. In fact, many people from the Heavenly Realm had lost their lives in recent decades.
There are countless monks who have disappeared, and most of them died in some corner of the cave.
However, the overall number of monks has not decreased, but is increasing day by day. After all, high-level monks have a way to multiply and multiply, thereby increasing manpower and obtaining a large amount of resources.
They originally thought that the Immortal Throne Forbidden Zone might maintain a stalemate for hundreds of years. It would not be until the cave was almost fully explored that they would gradually fall into the chaos of fighting for the Immortal Throne.
But unexpectedly, it was Song Zongwu who kicked off the ceremony of becoming a god.
The Huode Cave Mansion burst into flames, and all the puppets arranged by the Jailer Hall were instantly wiped out, and the few monks were also wiped out.
Even the sand ships trying to get close to the cave were not spared.
Huode Xingjun seemed to have revived, and he actively curled up his limbs, buried his head in his chest, and finally formed an oval-shaped fire egg.
The monks were silent and looked at Lord Huodexing in unison.
Their thoughts were in chaos, and all towns came to a brief standstill. Song Zongwu's actions completely disrupted the stable situation.
Mrs. Bones stood on the edge of the city wall, lowered her head and said, "Has the weather changed?"
After she finished speaking, she left the town and plunged into the throat area of Juli Cave. The goal was naturally to find the location of the immortal throne.
boom! ! !
The second breath burst out, this time from the cave under the moon, and the dreamlike light and shadow caused the nearby void to be extremely brilliant.
Dameng Zhenren's dream magic is not as glamorous as Ren Qing's, but it can confuse the five senses of the monks, making them feel as if they are in an illusion.
The old man under the moon held his knees with his hands, and there were countless blood vessels spreading on his body surface.
The second blood egg was formed, and the two caves were completely isolated from the outside world, which brought stimulation to the monks no less than the transformation of Dingguang Buddha into a demon.
You know, there are only a dozen caves in the Immortal Restricted Area.
The number of places to become an immortal is very limited, and now two are occupied. How can the remaining ten immortal places not make them crazy.
The most important thing is that the successors of Old Man Yuexia and Lord Huo Dexing have not been seen at all before, and they most likely came from heaven.
Looking at the Fengshen Cave, it has also been occupied by the Fengkong people from the Thunder Department of Heaven. Unknowingly, Heaven no longer conceals its ambitions.
If you don't take action, that's it. Once you take action, you will immediately seize the two immortal positions.
How dare they neglect it? Once the number of immortals is reduced to a certain level, the competitors they have to face are all lunatics, and becoming an immortal will become increasingly difficult.
There are also monks who want the mantis to catch the cicada and the oriole behind.
They quietly went to the outskirts of Huode Cave, intending to pry open the cave's protection and intervene while Song Zongwu was unable to fight back.
But the cave cannot be broken through conventional means.
The refining of Huode Xingjun has begun, and the process is simply difficult to shake.
Of course, this does not mean that Song Zongwu is in an invincible position. The immortal position has a profound impact on the body and soul, and he may go crazy at any time.
Song Zongwu seemed to have returned to that period of sleeping for hundreds of years.
The consciousness must resist the erosion of information from the immortal position, otherwise it will be completely consumed and eventually turn into a walking corpse.
He could only grit his teeth and recite the contents of the spell silently, awakening himself over and over again.
Any doubts about one's own existence in the heart may cause the body and soul to collapse, or become a different "self".
In a sense, Song Zongwu also saved Xiao Yan's life.
Xiao Yan stepped into the magma without any preparation. Even if he could get close to the immortal throne, his body and soul would have been irreversibly damaged.
If you want to refine the immortal position, you will almost die.
Forcibly refining the immortal position is extremely dangerous. After all, the method of ascending to immortality has nothing to do with the immortal position, which means that the body and soul are not suitable for the immortal position at all.
Dameng Zhenren's situation is much better. He is not as injured as Song Zongwu, and his consciousness can still go to the deep dreamland, so he is able to do it with ease.
He has been in contact with the Immortal Matchmaker even longer than Ren Qing.
Dameng Zhenren's ladder to ascend to the Yangshen Realm is to use the ability of Old Man Yuexia to give birth to hundreds of split souls.
In just three years, he developed a subtle connection with Old Man Yuexia.
The core element of Old Man under the Moon is "controlling marriages in the world", but it actually has little to do with dreams.
But since ancient times, there has been a saying called "Huangliang Dream", which tells the story of a poor scholar named Lu Sheng who married a wife and had children in his dream.
"Have you ever seen that throughout the ages, what is the permanent owner of the country, and what is the destiny of wealth? In the blink of an eye, there is a strange shape, just like a yellow beam and a dream."
Master Dameng knew this very well, so the refining process was quite smooth.
Ren Qing, who was in the center of the void, seemed to sense the vision of Da Meng Zhenren. His eyelids trembled slightly, and Tiandi Sheng's meditation did not stop.
Most of Ren Qing's mind was on preparing for becoming an immortal, trying his best to polish the technique to the point where there was no omission, and at the same time, he needed to nourish and strengthen his body and soul to the extreme.
He was mainly afraid that the blessing of the information flow would not be able to cope with the crisis when he became an immortal. Anyway, it would take some time for the cracks in heaven to heal, and he would take the opportunity to make his foundation closer to the true immortal Buddha.
Ren Qing gained some consciousness and noticed Lord Huode Xing's immortal position.
"Huh?"
Ren Qing narrowed his eyes and glanced at his right arm, where the projection of a wave of refugees suddenly became clear.
The refugee wave did not believe in Lord Polaris, but they did have the habit of worshiping the "Made Fairy".
The belief in the matchmaker may have been established thousands of years ago. At that time, the soul of the matchmaker still existed, and perhaps he had done something like staying in one place.
What surprised Ren Qing was not that the refugees believed in matchmakers, but that the refugees did not migrate north.
They seemed to be in the safer north, which was the destination that the crazy woman and other Nan Ming wanted to go to after going through all kinds of hardships.
Ren Qing is paying more and more attention to the refugees, and he doesn't know what the situation is in the north.
He wanted to let the fungus soul descend, but Dameng Zhenren had not yet completely refined the immortal position, and the refugees seemed to be covered by a layer of window paper.
Ren Qing took a deep breath and looked up at the sky with his huge body.
The flesh, flesh and bones were stimulated by the forces of heaven and earth, and surged crazily. In a moment, they transformed into an immortal body and "all things are unified".
How shocking the immortal god was, the monk was like an ant in front of Ren Qing.
The strange creatures in the cave were stimulated by the unification of all phenomena, and their strength surged, causing the hunting monks to be caught off guard.
The strange things that were originally in the Yang Shen Realm were directly powerful against the Heavenly Weird Realm.
And they become extremely hungry, devouring everything around them, as if they have a bottomless stomach.
However, before the influence of the unification of all things could deepen further, Ren Qing suddenly canceled his immortal body and continued to meditate on the spell with his eyes closed.
All things fell into one state for just ten breaths, which made them feel baffled.
Some monks also interpreted the vision as a sign that Ren Qing was about to become an immortal, so the aura of the spell was unstable.
Heavenly Court has currently refined two immortal places, and Fengshen Cave Mansion also has an advantage.
If there are monks in heaven who become true immortals, there is no need for them to compete for the immortal position. There is no way they will risk their death to snatch food from a tiger's mouth.
As a result, the competition for the immortal position became more and more fierce.
How could Ren Qing have the intention to control the movements of the immortal restricted area? Anyway, according to the refining speed of Da Meng, it would take at least a hundred years.
Even if the refining is completed, it does not mean that Dameng Zhenren has become an Earth Immortal.
Dameng Zhenren still has to climb up from the Way of Dharma, but with the blessing of the immortal position, the speed of practice will be far beyond ordinary.
Ren Qing had plenty of time to work around, and had a laissez-faire attitude toward Fengxian.
He simply found that even if everything was unified, the fungus soul could not descend, which meant that the problem still lay in the fact that Dameng Zhenren had not mastered the immortal position.
Ren Qing also thought about the five immortal bodies, using the complementary abilities of the immortal bodies to see if they could build a bridge to communicate with the outside world.
But the monks in the restricted area of the immortal position will definitely not be able to hold on, at least most of them will be killed or injured.
Ren Qing thought for a long time, and finally reluctantly gave up on the projected fungus soul, and had to wait another hundred years, hoping that the refugees could support it.
When he regained consciousness and prepared to continue the retreat, he inadvertently scanned the world in his stomach.
Ren Qing discovered the unique incense fairy system in the world in the stomach, and also noticed that the belief in fairy gods was very prosperous in the mortal world.
There are many festivals where mortals worship immortals and pray for good weather.
There is no shortage of pilgrims in the temple, and the scent of incense generated forms a torrent invisible to the naked eye under the guidance of heaven.
In the heavenly palace in the stomach world, there is a small world dedicated to the incense fairy.
The environment of the small world is ordinary, covered by clouds and mist, surrounded by layers of rugged mountains, with a palace in the middle.
The four heavenly gates in the southeast, northwest and north serve as the seals of the small world.
The furnishings of the palace and the heaven are the same, but the area is smaller.
The incense fairies are all staying in their respective temples, digesting the scent of incense coming from the mortal world. It can be seen that some spiritual wisdom has been born.
They are incense immortals formed by magic. Ren Qing calls them "innate immortals", and some of them have reached the level of heavenly deception.
The ones who were promoted from the Mountain God and the Stream God were also Incense and Fire Immortals, but they were acquired Immortals.
Because they were born from remnant souls, they have higher intelligence, but their cultivation must be accumulated little by little within the scope of their responsibilities.
Ren Qing stared at the incense fairy "Yue Lao", and the relationship between the two was very similar to the primary and secondary souls.
Statues of Yuelao are displayed in thousands of homes and temples, because their duties involve seeking children and marriage.
Anyone who has anything to do with future generations will never lose the incense.
Yue Lao relied on the faith of mortals to reach the level of the Heavenly Creation Realm, although the strength of Xianghuo Fairy was a bit frivolous.
Ren Qing tried to use Yue Lao to replace the mushroom soul that was used to descend, but he easily established a connection with the refugees.
On the surface, the incense fairy has little connection with the immortal position.
In fact, during the formation process of the Incense Immortal, Ren Qing deliberately made the immortal job he integrated into close to the immortal position. The two had a subtle connection through the "immortal job" that also had access.
With a thought in his mind, Yue Lao disappeared into the Heavenly Palace.
Ren Qing's consciousness quickly attached to Yuelao's body to observe the situation in the outside world.
There was noise in his ears, but he did not hear anxiety or fear. The mortals here seemed to be really out of danger.
With the advent of Yuelao, Ren Qing's perception of the outside world becomes clearer.
What comes into view is a spacious ancestral hall, with wooden tables and benches inside, and men, women, old and young sitting around the tables.
Ancestral halls generally worship ancestors and can also host weddings and weddings.
Mortals didn't notice at all that the statue of the matchmaker on the wall not far away came to life and was looking around the temple.
There are indeed tokens of ancestors in the ancestral hall, arranged in rows in a staircase shape, with the statue of the matchmaker at the top, which naturally has the highest status.
Ren Qing had no intention of exposing himself. Even if the Yue Lao who arrived had reached the Yang God Realm and was far more reliable than the Bacteria Soul, he still had to figure out the situation in the north first.
He was afraid that the statue would break into pieces, so he carefully controlled the statue.
The statue opened its mouth and nose, and smoke-like incense smoke came out. It got into the crack of the window and came outside in the heat of the food.
As soon as Ren Qing came to the yard, he noticed that the sky was strange.
The sky turned purple-red, not like the afterglow of the evening, nor like the rising sun, giving it a strange and unreal feeling.
The sky was covered with thick clouds, and the light seemed to be shining from outside.
Ren Qing was stunned for a moment. Wherever in the north is a safe area, it has obviously encountered unimaginable changes.
He gathered a lot of incense, and then it floated straight upward.
The viewing angle was raised to a thousand meters, and it could be seen that there were many villages hundreds of miles away, with mortals busy working on crops in the fields.
But there are still oddities.
For example, the rice that grows in the farmland has ten times more ears than normal rice, and its branches have been bent by the heavy seeds.
Mortals didn’t manage their farmland much, not even fertilizing it.
They mainly pull out weeds in the fields, and their movements are extremely skillful, but the weeds grow endlessly.
Ren Qing's consciousness rose to five thousand meters, and the purple light shining on it made people's hair stand on end.
The scent of incense was consumed rapidly. When it was about to approach the clouds, it had weakened to the size of a copper plate and was about to completely dissipate.
Ren Qing stared at the clouds, feeling inexplicably flustered as he was in the restricted area of the Immortal Position.
Just after the incense smoke passed through the clouds, Ren Qing's eyes were shrouded in purple.
Then he lost consciousness for a brief moment, and saw a scene that he would never forget in his life, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble.
The giant head is suspended high in the sky, and its surface is a lifelike statue shell. Countless twisted tentacles can be seen from the fracture.
The tentacles inadvertently emit purple mist, causing visions to occur.
What shocked Ren Qing the most was that the appearance of the head turned out to be that of a "moral god", which was exactly the same as what he faced when he understood the method of ascending to immortality.
The head of Daode Tianzun almost covers the entire sky, and the purple light brought invisibly has begun to transform the ecological environment.
It seems that ordinary people live and work in peace and contentment, but in fact, who knows what alienation is inside.
After Ren Qing's consciousness returned to its original form, it remained in chaos for a long time. What happened to the outside world in just a hundred years?
Is the head really a moral god?
Why is it so mutilated? Does it have anything to do with the Supreme Demon?
