The seventh heaven of Baiyujing.
Two figures supported each other and walked on the mountain path.
They are Shui Yunzi and Jin Donglai, two brothers from the same clan.
He was clearly a powerful warrior of the third rank, but at this moment he was like an ordinary person, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and he was panting like a cow, taking a rest every three steps.
"And...how far is it...to the Heaven's Gate?"
Shui Yunzi asked intermittently.
"It's still early..."
Jin Dong looked ahead and said breathlessly with regret: "We... came out of Tianmen... walked three thousand miles... and returned... we only walked seven hundred miles..."
Tianmen is the gateway between the seven heavens of Baiyujingli.
In order to experience the forbidden rules of heaven and earth, the two brothers entered the seventh heaven together.
When they first arrived, the feeling of returning to normal life was very refreshing to them.
However, I regretted it after only half a month.
Because not only did they lose their power, they also lost their money...
If the Five-Colored Divine Bird's body was not strong enough and it did not avoid eating raw food, it might have starved to death.
"You mean... there are still two thousand... two thousand three hundred miles?"
Shui Yunzi's face turned green.
"That's about right..."
Jin Donglai looked extremely miserable, "I don't want to leave anymore."
"Still running!"
Shui Yunzi's strength suddenly relaxed, and he fell backwards to the ground, "Hiss... So cool!"
Jin Donglai then lay down, but didn't want to say a single word.
Now they are just two ordinary people who are extremely tired after a long journey. Apart from lying down and taking a nap, they have no other thoughts in their minds.
But they didn't really fall asleep.
After resting for a while, Shui Yunzi spoke first: "Even the third-level status can be suppressed, and even prevent us from transforming back into the original body of the divine bird... If the world also has status, Bai Yujing is no weaker than the Five Spirit Realm."
"That's the truth."
Jin Donglai was in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, and he said vaguely: "If this strange rule continues to strengthen, I'm afraid even the evil demons will not be able to invade..."
"That's what I thought."
Shui Yunzi opened his eyes and looked at the bright but not dazzling sky. "Baiyujing has replaced Tianxuanjie and is about to replace Wulingjie... Do you think there is a possibility that one day in the future, Baiyujing can replace... Daxu?"
“…”
Jin Donglai was almost asleep, but when he heard this question, he sat up suddenly and exclaimed, "Replacing Daxu? How... is it really possible!"
"It will not decline, it will not perish, it will continue to grow forever..."
"As long as we are not attacked by evil spirits, ten thousand years, a hundred thousand years... ten thousand years later?"
"hiss!"
Jin Donglai took a deep breath, "Bai Yujing swallowed up the entire Daxu and replaced it?!"
"It would be nice if that were the case."
Shui Yunzi sighed, "What a pity, the prophecy of the Emperor of Heaven..."
“…You really do remember.”
Jin Donglai's tone suddenly darkened.
"If it weren't for Daoist Brother Jiang's appearance, I would have almost forgotten about it."
Shui Yunzi was stunned, "Baiyujing is also a real space. If all realities must be..."
"No one knows what the basis of this prophecy is. Maybe it's not the authority of time?"
Jin Donglai interrupted Shui Yunzi and shook his head, saying, "If you can't be sure of something, just treat it as if it doesn't exist."
"Don't worry, only you, me and Tu Sanshan know about this."
Shui Yunzi smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Jiang is about to become the co-lord of the two worlds and the hope of everyone. He must not be interfered with."
"As long as you understand, brother."
Jin Donglai nodded slightly, then looked up at the sky: "By now, the first batch of migration is almost complete, right?"
"It should be."
Shui Yunzi clicked his tongue, "Fellow Daoist Jiang's methods are truly extraordinary. Not only did he control the merger of the two realms by himself, but it only took half a month for Baiyujing to expand to the point where it could relocate a million people."
"The means are beyond words, but the speed..."
Jin Donglai frowned slightly, "If this continues, won't it take more than a hundred years for the complete merger?"
"One hundred years is just one hundred years. What's the big deal?"
Shui Yunzi lazily turned his body to a more comfortable position.
"One hundred years is a long time."
Jin Donglai looked at Shui Yunzi deeply.
"did you mean……"
Shui Yunzi propped himself up and sat up, "Are you worried that Brother Jiang's cultivation will be delayed?"
“That is indeed a concern.”
Jin Donglai nodded, "Fellow Daoist Jiang is a human, and was born in the Tianxuan Realm. Although he has been promoted to the third level, his life span may not increase much..."
"Hmm."
Shui Yunzi pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "There is something you may not have noticed."
"What?"
Jin Donglai was stunned.
Shui Yunzi looked around to make sure there was no one else around, then he lowered his voice and asked, "Do you remember the teahouse we passed by in the fourth heaven?"
"teahouse?"
Jin Donglai thought for a moment, "You mean the cultivator market run by the imperial court? There is indeed a teahouse there, what's wrong with that?"
"When you and I passed by the teahouse, there was an old man telling a story to a young man who looked like his apprentice."
Shui Yunzi narrowed his eyes. "I didn't hear everything he said, I just remember three words ... Changshengtian."
"What?!"
Jin Donglai was shocked and thought of a lot of things in an instant.
Changshengtian, that was the name of one of the thirty-three rings of heaven.
To put it bluntly, even in the former Three Thousand Rings, few living beings knew the name of Changshengtian. Baiyujing is just a mortal world, so how did it know this?
unless……
"Long... is it also one of the materials for building the Tianxuan Realm?!"
Jin Donglai was shocked.
If this is true, then is it possible that Baiyujing, which was born from the Tianxuan Realm and in turn swallowed up half of the Tianxuan Realm, inherited the rules of immortality?
As the lord of Baiyujing, has Fellow Daoist Jiang mastered the rules of immortality?
Thinking of this, Jin Donglai frowned deeply, "Is it possible that what the old man said is not the same as what we think?"
"If it were any other real world, I might have thought so."
Shui Yunzi narrowed his eyes and said seriously: "But the predecessor of Baiyujing is Tianxuan Realm, which is made up of many rings of heaven... Don't forget where Changshengtian is located in the ring structure."
"Next to the free heaven!"
Jin Donglai felt a dry mouth.
“How exactly did the Free Heavenly Emperor do it? I’m afraid that Fellow Daoist Jiang doesn’t know either. But since a low-level cultivator can know the three words ‘Eternal Heaven’, it proves that this is not a very deep secret for Bai Yujing.”
Shui Yunzi continued to analyze, "Even if we do a little research, we can easily find out."
"This... if it's not a secret, why have I never heard Brother Daoist Jiang mention it?"
Jin Donglai was a little confused.
“Perhaps it’s my attitude towards the Immortal Emperor that makes Daoist Brother Jiang feel uneasy.”
Shui Yunzi sighed, looking somewhat helpless: "May God have mercy on me, I hate Shan Wu, it has nothing to do with the rules of immortality."
"After all, that is a privilege that only demons have. Which being with a limited lifespan wouldn't want it?"
"But then again..."
Shui Yunzi's eyes flashed with recognition, "The Rule of Immortality is the only force that can make the truth not be restricted by lifespan. Even without my attitude towards Shanwu, it is reasonable for him to hide this. We just need to pretend that we know nothing."
“…That’s true.”
Jin Donglai thought for a moment and asked, "If it's really as we think, doesn't that mean we don't have to worry about anything?"
"Why do you think I have the time to come to the Seventh Heaven?"
Shui Yunzi chuckled and changed his position to lie down, "It's so comfortable..."
“…”
Jin Donglai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I gave him the deduction of the skills, and I gave him the merger of the two worlds. Now I have to give him the mission of restoring the truth. This..."
As he spoke, Jin Donglai felt a great sense of relief in his heart, and he lay down involuntarily.
"Yeah, it's really comfortable."
Jin Donglai laughed.
…
…
"These two brothers..."
Beside the gate, Xu Chong couldn't help but smile as well.
Although Shui Yunzi and Jin Donglai spoke in low voices, they were in a forbidden sky and earth rule that had been strengthened many times, so theoretically it was impossible for a third person to hear it.
But Xu Chong, as the lord of Baiyujing, happened to be paying attention to the two of them, so he naturally heard every word.
I'm afraid Shui Yunzi also guessed this.
The reason why I say this is probably to repay Xu Chong's trust.
After all, many of Xu Chong’s secrets can be deduced based on the past events of the Tianxuan Realm.
Letting those five people enter Baiyujing and play around freely, on the one hand, shows the ability to control everything, but on the other hand, it can also be seen as trust in the five people.
If nothing unexpected happens, Shui Yunzi was expressing to Xu Chong through this conversation that he did not covet the rules of immortality.
It can be considered as returning a favor.
But the two brothers were wrong about one thing.
The merger of the two worlds would not take as long as a hundred years.
Because of the continuous strengthening of Baiyujing and the continuous weakening of the Five Spirits Realm, the speed of merging is accelerated at both ends.
Migrating a million people in half a month is just the initial speed, and it will only get faster as time goes on.
According to Xu Chong's estimation, it would take at most ten years.
Within ten years, the Five Spirits Realm will completely become a thing of the past.
"The only problem is that after the Five Spirits Realm weakens to a certain extent, it will inevitably enter a stage of shattering and collapse, or an unpredictable disaster may occur..."
Xu Chong thought about it, and suddenly an idea came to his mind: "How about asking the cabinet to send people over now to set up a temporary court structure?"
There is no doubt that using the current cabinet to deal with natural disasters may not be a sure thing, but it can definitely reduce casualties to the lowest level, because Lou Youzhi originally selected this group of people into the cabinet to deal with the destruction of the Tianxuan Realm.
"And with the cooperation of the five supreme elders, the people of the Five Spirit Realm will not have any resistance... Yeah, it's feasible."
Xu Chong thought about it again and again and decided to do it this way.
However, just as he was about to inform the cabinet , suddenly, the entire Five Spirit Realm went dark.
It was as if someone pressed the switch that controlled the light source. It was daylight one second, but pitch black the next.
"!!!"
Xu Chong stood up suddenly, his pupils shrank to the extreme.
Although he didn't understand what this change meant, it was definitely not a normal natural phenomenon.
So without thinking twice, he opened five passages in a row and unreasonably "asked" Huo Bufan and the other four to leave Baiyujing.
"Why is it suddenly dark... No!"
Huo Bufan reacted quickly and his face changed drastically.
The darkness could not block the sight of the third-level person, and the sudden rich spiritual energy also proved that he was not in Baiyujing.
“This is the Five Spirits Realm!”
Shui Yunzi's pupils shrank to the extreme, "The second formation has been triggered!"
“Damn it!”
Tu Sanshan didn't even think twice and raised his hand to press the gate.
A yellow light flashed by, and the person disappeared.
"There is an evil demon approaching the boundary gate. We will go to deal with it first. Just in case, please ask Brother Daoist Jiang to merge the two realms at full speed!"
Shui Yunzi explained hastily and followed the others out of the gate.
Xu Chong's mood plummeted.
Huo Bufan told him about some arrangements made by the Five Spirit Realms to deal with nothingness.
First is the Phantom Demon Array.
In order to preserve the independent Five Elements Heaven, the Five Elements Heavenly Emperor used the remains of a Golden Immortal cultivator to create an extremely tiny magical instrument.
These are the tiny particles that Xu Chong had accidentally touched.
These particles have only two functions.
One is the ability of the Bud of Truth to imprison nothingness.
The other is to release the imprisoned nothingness like "walking a dog", creating the appearance of gray fog, and then taking it back after a certain period of time.
The combination of these two functions forms the outermost magic illusion array - with the Five Spirits Realm Gate as the center, with a radius of 100,000 miles to 200,000 miles.
Apart from creating the illusion that 'the flower of nothingness is entrenched here' to scare away the nothingness that happens to pass by, it has no offensive or defensive capabilities.
And further inward is the second arrangement, the Demon-Shocking Array.
From the edge of the 100,000-mile radius to the vicinity of the boundary gate, it is also covered with countless dust particles.
Unlike the Phantom Demon Formation, the material of these dust particles is the remains of the Jade Immortal cultivators... the three Heavenly Emperors who died in the battle between reality and illusion but were not swallowed by the void.
The Five Elements Emperor risked his life to snatch the remains from the Void, and finally used the three zombies as a model and added the power of creation from the rotation of the Five Elements to create the Demon-Shocking Array.
To put it bluntly, it's also scary. The difference is that the Phantom Demon Array simulates the second-class Void Flower, while the Shocking Demon Array simulates the first-class Real Fruit - that is, the three zombies that imprisoned countless nothingnesses and made the will of nothingness helpless.
After all, the Magic Phantom Array can only create the illusion of the Flower of Nothingness, and as members of the same camp, the Flower of Nothingness has limited deterrent effect on other Nothingnesses.
If there is a curious 'youngster' who wants to learn more, he can easily discover the essence of the magic array.
Once this happens, when this "young man" enters the radius of 100,000 miles, he will suddenly see three fruits of truth appear in front of him.
Even if it was a first-class Fruit of Nothingness, in a one-on-three situation, there was a high possibility that it would be scared away by such a scene.
Unless this first-class person is also a greenhorn.
"I hope it's safe..."
A trace of worry flashed across Xu Chong's eyes.
The next moment, he used the authority of light and the authority of space without any regard for consumption.
Countless phantom bodies rushed in all directions, opening more and more channels between the two worlds in various areas of the Five Spirit Realm.
At the same time, a phantom body passed through the gate with the authority of the five elements to monitor the movements in the ruins.
