The moment Li Anran brought Tongtian Jiaozhu and Chunying into the Heavenly Prison, their information appeared on the Book of Punishment.
"I was wondering why this fake Tongtian was so weak. It turns out he was just a trace of evil thoughts from Master Tongtian! His sin value is quite low, only one star!"
Li Anran did not waste any time and went straight to check the life of the fake Tongtian.
The picture flows.
Li Anran quickly figured out the origins of this fake Tongtian.
However, during the catastrophe of the Conferred Gods, Yuanshi Tianzun, Laozi and other four saints joined forces to break the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, and a number of Jiejiao disciples suffered heavy casualties. Some of their souls were included in the Conferred Gods List, some returned to the Western Religion, and some died.
Only two or three hundred independent cultivators were rescued by Master Tongtian.
Master Tongtian felt that he had lost all face, so he decided to go all out and create a new world by creating water, fire, and wind!
Although this matter was finally stopped by Hongjun Daozu.
However, once a saint has a thought, cause and effect have already occurred.
Patriarch Tongtian followed Daozu Hongjun and left the Three Realms, and went to the Zixiao Palace in the chaos, where they remained in seclusion.
The reflection that he left behind unintentionally when he had this evil thought was born with intelligence a thousand years later. He even regarded himself as the real Master of Heaven and wanted to recreate the earth, water, fire and wind and rebuild the heaven and earth.
However, because he did not have the ability of a saint to reopen the world, his obsession changed from reopening the world to seizing it and snatching the Jade Emperor's position as Emperor of Heaven.
At that time, all the saints had already left the Three Realms. The fake Tongtian thought he was the real Tongtian Master, invincible in the world, so he foolishly killed his way to the Heavenly Palace.
Then, he was suppressed by Taishang Laojun and Tathagata under the Yinyang Mountain.
It was not until two hundred years ago that he broke the curse and regained his freedom.
The reason why the fake Tongtian has such a low sin value is that he has been sealed most of the time since he was born with intelligence. He has the heart to destroy the world, but he has not done many evil things.
And this is about the time when the gods and Buddhas of the three realms decided to join forces to resolve the catastrophe.
It is obvious that this fake Tongtian was released deliberately by Taishang Laojun.
The purpose is to use him to artificially advance the disaster, turn the catastrophe into an ordinary disaster, and eliminate the cause and effect karma.
Because of the loss he suffered last time, the fake Tongtian did not dare to act rashly this time. Instead, he pretended that the seal had not been broken and hid in the Yinyang Mountain, recruiting soldiers and accumulating strength.
Also, because when Tongtian Patriarch had this evil thought, he was thinking about the previous Zhuxian Formation and Wanxian Formation, the fake Tongtian also obtained Tongtian Patriarch's scattered memories about the Zhuxian Formation and Wanxian Formation.
On the one hand, he collected rare treasures to refine inferior versions of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian to set up the Zhu Xian Formation, and on the other hand, he recruited many monsters and taught them martial arts, hoping to use them to set up the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.
E Jiao and Chunying are both the proud disciples of the fake Tongtian.
"Is it just a broken version of the Zhu Xian Sword Formation?"
Li Anran was a little disappointed.
But, on second thought, this is normal.
This fake Tongtian was only at the level of a Golden Immortal when he was born, and he didn't have any system plug-ins, so how could he possibly master the complete versions of the Zhuxian Formation and the Wanxian Formation!
Moreover, the memories of the saint that the fake Tongtian obtained were only the scattered bits and pieces that flashed through Tongtian’s mind at the time.
This is also the reason why the fake Tongtian’s cultivation is so low and his strength is so poor!
The skills he practiced and the spells he cast were all created by his own understanding. Except for the Zhuxian Formation and the Wanxian Formation, the others had nothing to do with Master Tongtian and the Jiejiao!
The fake Tongtian also discovered this, but he did not doubt his identity as the Master of Tongtian. Instead, he found a "reasonable" reason for himself -
In the Battle of Conferred Gods, he was severely injured by the joint conspiracy of Human Sect, Orthodox Sect and Western Sect, so that his cultivation level plummeted and his memory was also incomplete.
This is good news for Li Anran!
Because the fake Tongtian's memories were incomplete, he was not able to learn the Zhuxian Formation directly. Instead, he deduced and restored it bit by bit through the contents of his memory.
Li Anran could clearly see the whole process of him refining the inferior version of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and practicing the Zhu Xian Formation!
It’s just that the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation requires too many people, and Jia Tongtian hasn’t been able to gather enough people even after two hundred years. He can’t expect to get them by checking Jia Tongtian’s life!
"You can't chew too much! Let's learn the Zhu Xian Formation first!"
Li Anran quickly put aside that regret and focused all his energy on the Zhu Xian Formation, watching it over and over again.
Although the fake Tongtian was just a trace of evil thought of Tongtian Sect Master, it was also the evil thought of a saint, and it was indeed extraordinary!
In terms of aptitude, as soon as he was born with intelligence, he immediately possessed the cultivation of a Golden Immortal, transcending the Three Realms and not being within the Five Elements!
In terms of comprehension, it is also terrifying!
He had never learned any knowledge related to the formation, and only relied on the incomplete memory fragments about the Zhuxian Formation to deduce an astonishingly powerful Zhuxian Formation.
This made Li Anran amazed.
Time flies by unknowingly.
Three months passed in a flash.
In the quiet room of the sky prison.
Li Anran sat cross-legged, and suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were as sharp as a blade, and he shouted softly, "Get up!"
Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!
In an instant, the four immortal swords rang in unison and flew in the air.
Thousands of sword lights surged, and endless sword energy was like a tide.
Strands of sword beams gathered and intertwined around him, forming a sword formation filled with murderous intent and death.
Immortal Execution Formation (Incomplete): Level 8. The supreme formation that dominates the killing of the heavenly way, composed of the Immortal Execution Sword, Immortal Slaughter Sword, Immortal Trap Sword, and Immortal Absolute Sword, which cannot be broken without the combined efforts of four saints.
"Without the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, the flavor wouldn't be even a little bit off!" Li Anran couldn't help but sigh.
The system divides skills, spells, and magical powers into nine levels from low to high, but even within the same level, there are differences in quality.
Li Anran's Zhuxian Formation is 90% similar to the fake Tongtian's Zhuxian Formation.
The difference is that Li Anran made some improvements to his Zhuxian Sword Formation.
Li Anran didn't have the ability to improve the authentic Zhu Xian Formation, but the incomplete version of Zhu Xian Formation that the fake Tongtian repaired himself had many areas that could be improved!
Li Anran estimated that his Zhu Xian Formation should be of medium level among the eight levels, while the genuine Zhu Xian Formation should be at the limit of the eighth level or just entering the ninth level.
If you want to unleash the full power of the Zhu Xian Formation, you must obtain the Four Zhu Xian Swords.
"I don't know if Master Tongtian has taken back the Four Swords of Zhuxian."
Li Anran waved his right hand and put the four magic swords back into his sleeves.
The four immortal swords of Jia Tongtian were refined based on the four swords of Zhu Xian, and it took a lot of effort and energy.
However, because the fake Tongtian was not good at refining weapons, these four swords could barely be considered acquired magic weapons, and they were the worse ones among them, and could not be compared with the real Four Swords of Zhu Xian.
The real Four Swords of Zhu Xian were taken down by Jade Ding Zhenren, Daoxing Tianzun, Guangchengzi, and Chijingzi respectively when the Four Saints joined forces to break the Zhu Xian Formation.
I just don't know if they stayed after the Conferred Gods calamity ended, or handed them over to Yuanshi Tianzun? Or were they taken back by Tongtian Jiaozhu?
"I don't want to think about these nonsense! No matter which one it is, they will never fall into my hands! It is better to use the treasure bag to refine four swords. Even if they are not as good as the original ones, they are better than the fake Tongtian's Pin Xixi version!"
Li Anran glanced at the available experience points on the Book of Punishment.
Two hundred and twenty-one trillion three hundred and thirty-two billion nine hundred million!
The number is a bit exaggerated, but in fact, it is only enough for him to advance from the first level of Golden Immortal to the third level of Golden Immortal!
When refining magic weapons with the Treasure Bag, one consumes one's own energy and spirit. The more one consumes, the more powerful the magic weapon will be.
Without the status refresh brought by system upgrades, using it to refine magic weapons requires self-care and recovery, which is not worth the cost.
"I can get about 33.2 billion experience points every day now. If I want to accumulate another 200 trillion, it will take 16 years."
Ever since Zhang Jiao broke the List of Gods, the entire Three Realms have shown obvious signs of impending catastrophe.
Li Anran's cultivation speed increased nearly five times.
As he and Yang Jian and Nezha became closer and the journey to the West began, Li Anran's cultivation level improved even faster, increasing nearly tenfold from the previous fivefold level.
This fully proves the truth that the bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish!
Li Anran had the system and had thought about hiding himself to avoid this disaster, so he made many attempts.
Including not to distance himself from Yang Jian and Nezha.
But, it's of no use!
The speed of cultivation is still skyrocketing!
Li Anran finally came to a conclusion that the reason he was in trouble was related to Yang Jian and Nezha, but more importantly, it was because he was the prison god of heaven and had achieved great cultivation!
Heaven is one of the whirlpools of this catastrophe!
The higher your cultivation level, the greater the impact of the catastrophe!
Unless he gave up his golden finger, left heaven and abandoned his cultivation, he could not change the fact that he was in danger!
This is obviously impossible!
There should be quite a few gods in the Three Realms who have noticed this.
This is also the reason why Tathagata received support from so many powerful people when he proposed that all gods and Buddhas join forces to overcome the disaster at the Ullambana Festival!
Everyone was panicked and scared!
They are all worried that they will turn into ashes in the catastrophe!
"Sixteen years, not bad."
Li Anran had refined many useless magic weapons before.
Now, whenever he refines a magic weapon, he will take advantage of the status refresh brought by the system upgrade, consuming all his energy to refine the best magic weapon!
Sixteen years and two hundred trillion experience points, he was promoted from the third level of Golden Immortal to the fifth level of Golden Immortal!
In other words, Li Anran would only need eighty years at most to break through from the Golden Immortal to the Taiyi Golden Immortal!
This speed is already at the top of the Three Realms Pyramid!
The only ones who can compare with him are Nezha, Yang Jian, and Sun Wukong, the protagonists of the world, and that was when they were facing calamity!
And, there are these strange creatures like Jia Tongtian who are related to saints!
However, even if he is related to the saint, his cultivation has basically reached the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
If you want to break through to the Golden Immortal level, you need to comprehend the great Dao yourself, so that the three flowers can gather at the top of your head and the five qi can return to the origin!
But Li Anran doesn't need these!
As long as he keeps practicing, he will gain experience and be able to make continuous breakthroughs!
Li Anran got up and left the quiet room, dealt with the official business that had accumulated in the prison during this period of time, and then went into seclusion to practice again.
Time flies and another ten days have passed.
On this day, Li Anran suddenly felt something in his heart and opened his eyes.
Soon, a heavenly soldier came to report: "Sir, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, is outside the prison and wants to see you. He says he is an old friend of yours."
This monkey...
I haven't even asked him to collect the debt yet, but he comes to me for help!
Li Anran was busy practicing the Zhu Xian Formation during this period and had not paid attention to the progress of the journey to the West.
But, since the monkey came here to find him, there was no doubt that he was asking for help!
This feeling is quite rare!
Li Anran said: "I understand. Please let him wait for a moment, I will soon..."
Before he finished speaking, a monkey's shouting came from outside: "No time to wait! No time to wait! Prison God, if you wait any longer, my master will be eaten!"
But the monkey was impatient and could not wait for the heavenly soldiers and generals to report. He used the magic of substitution, left a fake body at the gate, transformed himself into a fly, landed behind the heavenly soldiers, and sneaked in.
"You bold demon monkey! How dare you trespass into the Heavenly Prison!" The heavenly soldiers and generals were shocked at first, and then became furious. They drew their weapons and were about to capture the monkey.
But they were no match for the monkeys, who tossed them around and made them fall down.
"That's enough!" Li Anran said coldly, "Sun Wukong, you haven't lived in the Five Elements Mountain long enough, so you want to stay in my prison for a while?"
The monkey's expression froze, and his hair stood up. He quickly cupped his hands and begged for mercy, "Brother Li, we are old acquaintances. It's not necessary. It's not necessary. I, Sun, apologize to you. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me!"
"You guys step back! I'm here to talk to this monkey!"
Li Anran snorted coldly, waved his hand to dismiss all the heavenly soldiers and generals, and then asked knowingly: "Why are you coming to me instead of escorting your master to the West to obtain the scriptures?"
"Hi!"
The monkey sighed and complained, "What do you think Tathagata was thinking? Couldn't he just be a good person and send them directly to the Tang Dynasty in the East? Or let me, Sun, go there first!"
"That 108,000 miles is nothing more than a few steps of my Somersault Cloud, but I had to let that mortal monk walk that distance! Look, he has been captured by the monster again!"
Li Anran said: "Your master was captured by a monster, you just go and save him, are you afraid of the monster?"
"Why would I, Old Sun, be afraid of that hairy kid!"
The monkey was very proud and immediately got angry and shouted, "I am not boasting, but in terms of ability, I am ten times better than him! But he can breathe fire!"
"You know, I, Old Sun, was imprisoned in the Eight Trigrams Furnace by the Supreme Lord Laozi for forty-nine days. Although I escaped in the end, I have been afraid of wind and smoke ever since..."
Before the monkey finished speaking, Li Anran knew which monster he had encountered.
The Fire Cloud Cave in the Dry Pine Valley on Drill Mountain!
The Holy Infant King Red Boy!
