when.
when.
when……
The moment the Five Elements authority on the panel broke through to 20%, nine bells rang in succession, resounding throughout the Five Spirits Realm.
After the bell rang, all abnormalities disappeared and the Emperor of Heaven returned to peace.
"Twenty percent authority, it really is twenty percent authority..."
Xu Chong stabilized his true form and sighed again.
Although he does not have this 20% authority, he can still increase the authority of light to 20% by hunting the void and absorbing the divine essence, but doing so will have unpredictable consequences.
With his current transformation, he could completely stay in the Five Spirits Realm, and use the most reliable method to slowly cultivate and break through, and the first-class status would come naturally.
Of course, it's only possible in theory, and he doesn't intend to do so.
Even if he doesn't like taking risks, as the saying goes, if you have a cheat and don't use it, you're a fool.
With the existence of the panel, going on an adventure in Daxu is bound to be more efficient than practicing peacefully.
in addition……
At this moment, the Five Spirits Realm might not welcome him to stay.
"As a fellow human, I hope you won't go too far..."
Xu Chong glanced at the bamboo forest below and began to fall freely.
During this month, he saw with his own eyes Li Xiangxue, Dou Tianyuan, Lou Youzhi and others being taken into the forbidden area of ​​the bamboo forest one after another.
Due to the distance, he was unable to control the authority of light at that time, so he only saw the process but could not tell whether these people were invited voluntarily or forced to come.
If it is the former, even if Shui Yunzi and others intend to threaten us, everything can be discussed.
And if it is the latter, Baiyujing and Wulingjing are destined to part ways.
As for the safety of Li Xiangxue and others, Xu Chong was not too worried.
Not to mention that he has already displayed many methods that are difficult for the Five Spirit Realm to deal with, just the five elements rules that he has absorbed in this month are not something that Shui Yunzi and others can resist.
It is impossible that the five supreme elders all fail to recognize the reality.
In this way, Xu Chong was thinking while quickly descending in altitude.
Before long, it passed through the lush bamboo shoots and fell into the bamboo forest.
Before I could see the situation around me clearly, a hearty voice was heard.
"I said he would definitely not do it directly, right?"
It’s Huo Bufan.
Xu Chong followed the voice and looked.
Apart from Shui Yunzi and other five supreme elders, there was no sixth person in the bamboo forest.
"My fellow Taoists, where are my relatives and friends now?"
Xu Chong stood with his head bowed, his face calm.
"Friends and relatives, what friends and relatives?"
Shui Yunzi spread his hands with a smile on his face, "This is a forbidden area. Except for the five of us and Fellow Daoist Jiang, no one else is allowed to enter for the time being... At least I didn't see any of Fellow Daoist Jiang's relatives or friends."
"Really?"
Xu Chong's eyes suddenly turned cold. "I know that the Five Elements Rule is a thing of the Five Spirits Realm, but this sudden change is really an accident, and I couldn't have predicted it. Just based on this, you are threatening my relatives and friends. Isn't it a bit too much?"
"What's the point of saying this now? You have already absorbed the five elements rules."
Mu Fangfang shook her head and sighed.
This tone made Xu Chong slowly narrow his eyes.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, you misunderstood..."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, Huo Bufan quickly opened his mouth to explain.
However, before he could finish his words, Tu Sanshan next to him grabbed him and glared at him.
"What if they're already dead?"
Shui Yunzi said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, are you planning to use the Five Elements Principles obtained from the Five Spirit Realm to kill us? Or even destroy the Five Spirit Realm?"
“Stop, stop, stop!”
Xu Chong suddenly raised his hand, his expression changed from cold to helpless: "Really, I'm acting with you guys and it's getting more and more exaggerated. What exactly do you want to test? Can't you just ask directly?"
"Well……"
Shui Yunzi's face froze, and he said stubbornly, "What kind of test..."
"I had some doubts in heaven, but I guessed it the first time I saw you."
Xu Chong raised his hand and pointed at several people one by one, "If you really coerced my people, how could you all be so unguarded? Especially Brother Huo, the surprise is written on your face."
"Ah? Me?"
Huo Bufan opened his mouth wide, and then his eyes began to avoid: "No."
Xu Chong looked at Tu Sanshan again, "If nothing unexpected happens, those people I saw these days should be the dummies that Daoist Fellow Tu created with his creation skills, right?"
“Ah, this…”
Tu Sanshan pulled his long beard, looking embarrassed.
"Okay."
Xu Chong waved his hand and walked closer: "Now that things have come to this, there is not much I need to hide any more. If you want to know something, just ask directly... What if I believe you?"
"What would happen if you believed it?"
Tu Sanshan's expression became solemn.
“Hmm…”
Xu Chong thought for a moment and said, "Among those twelve people, one is my master who taught me martial arts, one is my elder who protected me, and the other is someone I lost my entire growth process from childhood to adulthood... If they are really killed by you, I will most likely avenge them."
"Your Highness, why don't you destroy the Five Spirits and use them to strengthen our Baiyujing?"
Jin Donglai suddenly asked.
"Um?!"
Xu Chong thought of a lot of things in an instant, and uttered three words in anger and depression: "Zhang, Shun, Yi!"
In the current Baiyujing court, apart from Zhang Shunyi, there is no one else who has this ability and courage.
"Zhang Shunyi?"
Jin Donglai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Is this the person behind Li Xiangxue?"
"He is the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, my classmate and childhood friend from the same hometown."
Xu Chong's face looked very unhappy. "How dare this kid act on his own..."
"If I'm not mistaken, he wants to persuade you to merge the Five Spirit Realm into Baiyujing through Xiangxue, right?"
“How audacious!”
Xu Chong cursed fiercely, then bowed to the others and said, "Don't worry, I have no intention of coveting the Five Spirit Realm... As for Zhang Shunyi, this bastard has evil intentions and is full of evil. I will punish him severely and will not show any leniency."
You little bastard, I'll remove you from your position as Prime Minister and send you to the Seventh Heaven to farm.
Xu Chong thought viciously in his heart.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, your words are too serious. It is understandable that one should do his job as he is in his position. We have no intention of pursuing the matter."
Shui Yunzi waved his hand indifferently, giving Xu Chong enough room to step aside, and then changed the subject: "And this Zhang Shunyi is not the most terrifying, the more terrifying one is that guy named Lou Youzhi..."
"Well?"
Xu Chong's eyes froze, "Lou Xiang? No way? His situation..."
To put it bluntly, Lou Xiang is buried up to his neck in the earth and his strength is only that much. If he were in the Five Spirits Realm, it can be said that any cultivator he meets would be stronger than him.
What else can be planned in this situation?
Xu Chong’s doubts were soon answered.
"The plan is to kill the twelve members of the delegation and then put the blame on the Five Spirit Realm."
Jin Donglai smiled bitterly, "Can you imagine that such a cunning person could actually do such a thing as robbing a female cultivator? The most outrageous thing is that the female cultivator was about to break through to the human immortal realm... If it weren't for my people who have a higher cultivation level and are loyal enough to their duties, he would have almost done it."
“Ah, this…”
Xu Chong was dumbfounded.
Plan to kill the envoys?
In other words, Lou Xiang was planning to kill Dou Tianyuan, Li Xiangxue, and himself in the Five Spirits Realm?
All right.
This really looks like the work of Prime Minister Lou.
This is the one who forcibly abducted the female cultivator...
It's really an exaggeration.
"Are all of Daoist Friend Jiang's people so selfless and yet unscrupulous at the same time?"
Shui Yunzi stared at Xu Chong with envy and amazement.
"Is the old man okay now?"
Xu Chong asked with a helpless smile, and some of the resentment in his heart disappeared because of Lou Xiang's exaggerated style.
"It's okay. I'm being provided with delicious food and drinks."
Jin Donglai waved his hand and immediately revealed a wicked smile: "Oh, there are also eighteen stunning women of different looks, ages and figures who take care of his daily life."
"hiss……"
Xu Chong took a deep breath and said, "This is a ruthless move. This move is ruthless enough."
"Anyway, we now know the situation in Baiyujing, as well as the approximate age of Daoist Fellow Jiang."
Shui Yunzi's expression became serious, and he said solemnly: "So, the merger of the two worlds is not out of the question, but Daoist Jiang needs to show you what you have gained this time first."
Before he finished speaking, the other supreme elders, including Huo Bufan, all became solemn.
"Is that so..."
Xu Chong took a breath and became serious.
Although the turn of events came so suddenly that he was not prepared for it.
But since these leaders of the Five Spirits Realm have said that they can discuss it, he naturally won't be pretentious.
But if you show...
Xu Chong thought for a moment and said, "My apologies, everyone."
As he finished speaking, without any movement on his part, the bamboo forest, land, flowers, grass, gravel... everything around him suddenly began to grow wildly.
In the blink of an eye, a huge spherical net was woven, covering the entire area of ​​ten feet where the gate was located.
It was at this moment that the innate divine texts in the five people's qi sea suddenly lost contact.
Although Xu Chong had reminded them in advance, the feeling of having their cultivation completely destroyed still made the five of them panic.
Fortunately, all the changes only lasted for a few breaths and returned to normal under Xu Chong's manipulation.
"I have already mastered the power of the five elements."
Xu Chong stretched out his finger and gestured, "Twenty percent, enough for me to be promoted to the first rank by twenty percent."
Jin Donglai: “…”
Shui Yunzi: “…”
Mu Fangfang: “…”
Huo Bufan: “…”
Tu Sanshan: “…”
The five people looked as if they had seen a ghost and stared at Xu Chong.
You know, before this, they were still fantasizing whether such a big commotion would be enough to solidify power.
To condense into authority, one hundred and one is enough.
But now…
Twenty percent?!
As expected, 20%?!
"Well, you didn't brag..."
Huo Bufan stammered, "Right?"
"To be honest, I was worried that you would beat me up."
Xu Chong shrugged, "After all, this is probably the wealth that the Emperor of Heaven left to you, his descendants, but now it has been stolen by an outsider like me."
"That's too much. That's too much."
Tu Sanshan waved his hands repeatedly, "The rules are for the entire Great Ruins, not the Five Spirit Realm. As long as you have a deep enough understanding of the Five Elements rules, even if you are not in the Five Spirit Realm, you can still gather 20% of authority or even more."
"But I didn't even know the basics before..."
Xu Chong smiled awkwardly.
"This further proves that the Emperor of Heaven left this arrangement for you."
Shui Yunzi's eyes were full of meaning, "Fellow Daoist Jiang probably doesn't know that the Emperor of Heaven mastered the authority of time in his old age."
"Time authority?"
Xu Chong was shocked.
He has a deep understanding of the mystery of the rules of time .
It is not an exaggeration to say that if it had not been for those days at the Chunqiu Tomb, it would be hard to say whether he could have suppressed Emperor Yongtai and completed his counterattack.
"Yes."
Jin Donglai nodded and added, "This is what the beginning of the Heavenly Emperor's Secret Records tells... So we suspect that the Heavenly Emperor knew that you would appear in the Five Spirits Realm before leaving this back-up plan."
"Moreover, the Emperor's back-up plan should be related to the Five Elements Divine Text."
Tu Sanshan looked at Xu Chong with a questioning look on his face, "I wonder if you have deduced your new technique?"
“It has indeed been deduced.”
Speaking of this, Xu Chong's expression became excited, "Retain the power system, use the power to concentrate the mind, and go back to the path of opening the orifices, unblocking the meridians, cleansing the body, and even cultivating the Tao!"
Immediately, Xu Chong explained the method of awakening the mind that he had deduced, and then used the power of the Five Elements to create a sitting human figure to explain.
Such a simple thing can naturally be understood once it is explained.
The five people were shocked and a little bit unbelievable.
"It's... that simple?"
Tu Sanshan asked in amazement, pulling his beard.
"I thought it was simple at first, but I was bored recently and worked it out again from the beginning and found it was not simple at all."
Xu Chong shook his head. "At least, for those who have never experienced strength training, it is not easy..."
Initially, he thought that the only difficulty in condensing the Five Elements Divine Text was entering a state of meditation.
But after sorting it out, he found that he could not use himself as a reference because he was an exception.
Take the first time he practiced Zhengyang Jin for example. He only had to meet the two conditions of correct posture and facing the rising sun, and he naturally broke through to the first level of enlightenment.
For the vast majority of warriors, before they can open their minds, they need to go through a stage of sensing subtle changes in the body.
This subtle change progresses from shallow to deep, from the trembling of muscles, to the flow of blood, and then to the rise and fall of "force".
This is the traditional method of practicing strength. To practice the divine text of strength, one needs to do all of this and make it an instinct, and then add the additional state of meditation with the five hearts facing heaven.
Finally, the strength can truly be built into the five elements' divine text in the acupoints.
"…This does increase the difficulty of getting started, but the good news is that this step is just like entering a state of concentration. It does not require high qualifications and can be mastered with practice."
Xu Chong said with a relaxed smile, "And this is just the first edition, and it's just the Five Elements Divine Text. I think it won't be long before a new Divine Text technique that communicates with other rules will be born."
"I see."
Shui Yunzi nodded slowly, looking very excited: "What do you plan to name this technique and this new system?"
"name?"
Xu Chong was stunned, "I really haven't thought about this... Is it important?"
"Well, it's important, but it's not important either."
Mu Fangfang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up, "It depends on whether you want to be remembered for generations to come. If..."
"Of course I want it to last forever!"
Huo Bufan interrupted excitedly, "Whether it's the human race or the five-colored divine bird race, we all have a maximum lifespan and are destined to die one day. If we can shine in the history books, thousands or tens of thousands of years later, there will still be people who remember our names, speculate about our lives, and discuss our words and deeds... Tsk tsk, it's exciting just to think about it!"
"That's right."
Shui Yunzi looked at Huo Bufan with some surprise, "However, how could a common man like you have such an idea..."
"screw you!"
Huo Bufan glared at Shui Yunzi.
However, several people turned their heads at the same time and looked at Xu Chong eagerly.
"Let's do this."
Xu Chong thought about it and suggested: "Without the Five Elements Divine Text as a foundation, a new cultivation system cannot be deduced. You can discuss the naming. I will not participate."
The immortals have endless lifespans.
As long as he lives, people will know him, remember him, praise him, and admire him.
No written records are required.
