Chapter 309: Linglong Pagoda, the Universe Collapses
Ni Kun originally thought that it might take some effort to find Laozi's magic weapon.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in this reincarnation world, before he had time to release his divine consciousness and check the background story of this world, a rainbow light fell from the sky, landed in his hand, and turned into a one-foot-high Xuanhuang pagoda.
Huh?
Exquisite Pagoda?
Ni Kun scratched his head in confusion. Although this young master is the savior, the treasure will come to him on its own...
Isn’t this treatment a bit too grand?
Well, the fact is, with his current level of cultivation and his many merits in slaying demons and saving the world in the reincarnation universe, he can be called a "saint" in the secular world.
When it arrives, purple air will rise into the sky, covering the sky and blocking out the sun.
This purple air cannot be seen by mortals or ordinary cultivators, but the Linglong Pagoda, Laozi's most precious treasure, can sense it.
Now that the pagoda has lost its owner, Ni Kun has been proclaimed a saint, and has acquired the same extraordinary cultivation as Laozi, what else can Linglong Pagoda do if it doesn't take the initiative to surrender?
Except for Ni Kun, there is no one in the entire reincarnation universe who is worthy of it, and no one can use it.
"It saves me a lot of effort."
Ni Kun was a little confused for a while, then came to his senses, stroked the pagoda with a smile, and left a mark on it, then put it into the auspicious cloud.
After finishing his business, Ni Kun originally wanted to play around in this world for a while and bring back some local specialties, but after using his spiritual power to scan and find out the situation of this world, Ni Kun immediately turned around and left.
This is a doomsday world.
Of course, it was not caused by the extraterritorial demons, but the world background was originally a biological apocalypse, with zombies all over the streets and the living dead everywhere.
Even the demons from outer space wouldn't be interested in such a world, so there's certainly nothing to see.
Linglong Pagoda couldn't wait to throw itself into his arms, probably because it didn't want to stay in such a haunted place any longer.
At that moment, Ni Kun went straight back to the Tang Dynasty world, preparing to summon the beauties under his command to hold a Unobstructed Dharma Assembly to celebrate the discovery of the Linglong Pagoda.
…
Deep in Mount Zhongnan.
Master and disciple Zhu Yuyan and Kankan were suspended in mid-air, overlooking the valley below.
Suddenly, a light flashed in Kanan's eyes, "Found it!"
With a grab of her bare hands, the "Demon Force Field" transformed into a huge force field hand as transparent as crystal, and reached into the deep pool at the bottom of the valley. Amid the sound of splashing water, a huge alien queen was grasped in the palm of the force field hand and floated to the surface.
The alien queen struggled desperately, and her bloody mouth full of sharp teeth tried to bite the force field hand hard, but the force field hand was not damaged at all, and instead shattered the alien queen's fangs.
Kankan smiled slightly and was about to use her strength to crush the alien queen, when Zhu Yuyan suddenly raised her hand and pointed. A red lightning shot out from her fingertips and landed on the alien queen's head, blasting it through from head to toe.
The violent power of thunder spread from the wound to his entire body in an instant, and in just a few moments, he was reduced to ashes without a drop of acid blood splashing to pollute the environment.
After following Ni Kun for many years, Zhu Yuyan and the others not only enjoyed the immortality brought by the dragon essence and the immortal medicine, but also made rapid progress in strength. As long as they wanted to learn the thunder sword tactics that Ni Kun had learned, he would teach them everything he knew.
Now Zhu Yuyan and Kankan’s strength is no less than Tsunade when she had just swallowed the fruit of the sacred tree.
Xianxian rolled her eyes in annoyance and said coquettishly, "Master, why are you stealing my monster?"
Zhu Yuyan smiled sweetly: "You and I are master and disciple, what is the difference? What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine."
"Isn't that enough...eh?" K'K'K' blinked, "Master, you are so cunning. I almost got fooled!"
Seeing that she failed to fool her disciple, Zhu Yuyan was about to get angry, so she quickly diverted her attention:
"Hurry up, I think I saw another monster!"
As he spoke, a nine-section bamboo whip slid out of his sleeve and he pointed it at a hilltop far below. Immediately, vegetation on the hill grew wildly, and tree roots broke out of the ground, whipping and entangled like giant pythons. The hard rocks broke into pieces like tofu under the whipping and entanglement of the tree roots.
This nine-section bamboo whip is a wood-based magic weapon refined in batches by Ni Kun. It can control plants and trees and is extremely powerful.
Zhu Yuyan's move was originally just to divert Kankan's attention, but she didn't expect that there was actually a "monster" lurking on the top of the mountain.
I saw a few tree roots wrapped around a huge stone as big as a house. Just as they were about to crush it, the stone suddenly deformed with a crackling sound, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a giant robot more than ten meters tall. After struggling to tear off the tree roots wrapped around its body, it roared:
"How dare you sneak attack my Lord Megatron!"
With a roar, he raised his right arm, which turned into a cannon barrel and fired at Kankan and Zhu Yuyan in the air.
The master and disciple dodged hurriedly, and Megatron did not continue to attack. He leaped up, turned into a shuttle, and wanted to soar into the sky.
But just after taking off, Kanan raised a small seal, threw it into the air, and made a gesture. The seal immediately turned into a hundred-foot-high mountain, emitting infinite magnetic force. It firmly absorbed the shuttle that Megatron had transformed into, and pressed down on it with a bang, pinning it to the bottom of the mountain and crushing it into a pile of scrap metal.
This seal is also an earth-based magic weapon refined in batches by Ni Kun, and it has the power to collapse mountains and topple hills.
Although Megatron is quite powerful, he is still vulnerable to the magic weapon personally refined by Ni Kun .
After killing Megatron, the master and disciple smiled at each other and were about to continue searching for the monster when suddenly a stream of five-colored light flew from the sky and landed on Zhu Yuyan and Kankan.
"The Master is calling us."
"Let's go back to Chang'an."
The master and the disciple summoned their flying swords, merged their bodies with the swords, transformed into a beam of light, and flew towards Chang'an like a meteor.
Beimang Mountain.
Princess Kaguya floated in the air, looking down at the mountains with a pair of white eyes. Wherever her sight passed, all the demons and monsters hidden in the mountains and forests were exposed to her "white eyes".
After locking onto all the monsters, she opened the Rinnegan on her forehead and activated Ame-no-Mikado, pulling all the monsters into the lava space of "Ame-no-Mikado" and throwing them directly into the lava to burn them to death. Without even moving her hands, she had wiped out all the monsters in the mountain.
After following Ni Kun for many years, Kaguya finally got her wish and was granted the fruit of the sacred tree by Ni Kun, which enabled her to open the Rinnegan.
Today she had a try and experienced the power of the Rinnegan. A faint smile appeared on Kaguya's lips. Just as she was about to make further efforts, a stream of five-colored light fell from the sky and landed on her.
"Young Master summoned?"
Kaguya did not dare to delay, opened the portal and rushed towards Chang'an.
Dongting Lake.
Xiaoqing transformed into a hundred-foot-long green dragon with thorns on its back and a horn on its forehead, and it stirred up huge waves at the bottom of the lake.
A moment later, several dragons of various colors, less than one-third of her size, surfaced from the water, their bodies covered with wounds, twitching and dying.
Xiaoqing also floated to the surface, opened her mouth and sucked without hesitation, and with a few slurping sounds, she swallowed the little dragons like eating noodles.
Xiao Qing smacked her lips twice and said to herself, "It tastes okay."
He dived into the lake again and continued searching for the monster.
After finding two small dragons shivering at the bottom of the lake and swallowing them up mercilessly, Tsunade's voice suddenly rang out from the surface of the lake:
"Xiaoqing, come out quickly, Ni Kun wants us to go back."
"I heard it!"
Xiaoqing responded, and his huge body shrank rapidly, turning back into human form in the blink of an eye. He floated out of the water, soared into the sky, and flew side by side with Tsunade towards Chang'an...
…
Just when Ni Kun was sending messages to all directions in the Tang Dynasty world, calling back his beauties, holding an open ceremony, and living a carefree and happy life.
The guardians thought the war was over and that they could take a long vacation and rest, but suddenly they heard a rapid and shrill alarm, echoing throughout the temple inside and outside.
"What's going on?"
Hearing the alarm, the guards were filled with awe. No matter where they were or what they were doing, they immediately put down what they were doing, put on their armor, and quickly gathered in the main hall.
"What happened? Are there more demons from outside the realm attacking us?"
"I don't know. But it seems that there is no demon invasion at the outer cordon..."
"Master Xuanzang, do you know what happened?"
"I don't know either..."
The guardians gathered in the hall and were discussing among themselves when the virtual deity Athena appeared and came to the hall and said in a deep voice:
"Guardians, we have detected the collapse of the universe. The size of our universe is shrinking at a rate of one billionth of a second. Conservative estimates show that within three years at most, our universe will completely collapse into a singularity."
After hearing Athena's announcement, all the guardians were shocked and couldn't believe it:
"The universe collapses? How is this possible?"
"Our universe is still very young, how could it collapse for no reason?"
"Could it be the work of the Extraterritorial Demons? But weren't the main forces of the Extraterritorial Demons completely wiped out, leaving only a few insignificant little demons?"
Amid the discussion, Master Xuanzang asked in a deep voice:
"Athena, where is the center of collapse?"
Athena, who was glowing with divine light and had a blurred face, could only be seen wearing a golden skirt with wings. She held a shield in one hand and a spear in the other and said:
"The center of the collapse is located in the deep universe, in the destroyed 'dark' zone. Although it is still far away from the existing worlds, it is conservatively estimated that it will affect the outermost worlds in two years at most."
Xuanzang looked solemn:
"That is to say, the time left for us is not three years, but only two years?"
"I'm afraid it won't even be two years." Misaka Mikoto crossed her arms over her chest and frowned, saying, "The collapse is definitely not uniform. It's shrinking by one billionth of its volume every second. But as the volume of the universe continues to shrink, the mass of the 'singularity' at the center of the collapse continues to grow. I'm afraid the speed of the universe's collapse will get faster and faster."
Athena nodded and said:
"That's right, so three or two years are just conservative estimates. It's impossible to predict how long it will take."
Xuanzang asked:
"Can the Guardian Temple prevent the universe from collapsing?"
"I'm sorry." Athena said, "Only the power of creation can counter the power of the universe's collapse."
"Creation of the heavens and earth?" The guardians were speechless: "Although we have greatly increased our strength thanks to Ni Kun and Master Tong Tian, where can we find the power to create the heavens and earth?"
"Master Ni has inherited the teachings of Master Tong Tian and wields the Four Swords of Zhu Xian. Can he create the world?"
"Yes, Master Tongtian has the ability to re-establish the earth, water, fire and wind, and create the world..."
"Well, although Master Tongtian was once one of the top powers in this universe, but..."
"We can't rely on Master Ni for everything. He has helped us a lot." Xuanzang said, "Now he is busy looking for the Supreme Magical Weapon to increase his strength. We should not trouble him."
"That's right." Altria nodded and said, "Although we are powerless to resist the collapse of the universe, we should at least go for reconnaissance and find out the specific situation. If we rely on Ni Kun for everything, then what are we guardians for?"
"That makes sense."
"Then let's go scout first."
At this moment, the guardians were divided into two groups. Half stayed behind to guard the temple and provide backup, while the other half, under the guidance of Athena, went to the depths of the universe, to the destroyed dark area, to investigate the specific situation.
…
The world of Tang Dynasty, Chang'an.
Zhao Min was wearing a red hunting suit, with her long hair braided into a dozen small braids. She looked both heroic and pretty. She rode a white horse and galloped towards Ni Kun's residence.
Halfway through the journey, she suddenly heard someone calling her, "Minmin!"
Following the sound, she saw a young man in white holding a folding fan, riding a snow-white camel. He waved at her and drove the camel towards her.
Zhao Min frowned and asked unhappily, "Ouyang Ke, what are you doing here?"
Ouyang Ke smiled in a gentle and elegant manner, looking like a playboy from an aristocratic family:
"Minmin, long time no see, I miss you so much..."
“Don’t come at me!” Zhao Min rolled her eyes and said with disgust: “Don’t try to get close to me. I’m busy. If you have something to say, just say it. If not, just go and cool off!”
Ouyang Ke smiled and said, "Minmin, I just returned to Chang'an, so I don't have a job yet. I am a man of the world, I don't know any military tactics, nor can I manage government and finance. After thinking about it, it seems that the Demon Suppression Division is suitable for me..."
Zhao Min snorted coldly, "Your martial arts skills are too weak. If you want to join the Demon Suppression Division, you need to practice for twenty years first."
"My martial arts are weak?" Ouyang Ke was stunned: "My martial arts..."
Zhao Min didn't waste any words and slapped Ouyang Ke through the air. Ouyang Ke felt a palm force coming towards him like a tidal wave. The smile on his face froze instantly. He pushed with all his strength, hitting the palm force through the air.
Bang!
With a muffled thud, Ouyang Ke flew backwards from the hunchback like a ball that had been kicked in the air. He flew more than ten feet away before staggering to the ground.
Zhao Min's palm was just a gentle push, and although it knocked Ouyang Ke back more than ten feet, it did not hurt him.
Although Ouyang Ke was not injured, he was also stunned. He looked at Zhao Min in disbelief: "Minmin, your kung fu..."
Although Zhao Min's Kung Fu is good, what she has learned is too diverse. Whenever she sees other people's special skills, she always wants to learn them. As a result, she is broad but not deep. Her strength is just barely up to the first-class level. She is never worth mentioning in front of Ouyang Ke.
But he didn't expect that after not seeing her for a while, Zhao Min's strength had improved to such a level that she could knock him so far with just a palm force from a distance, and she could also control the force freely.
This speed of progress was unimaginable to Ouyang Ke.
Seeing Ouyang Ke's shocked expression, Zhao Min smiled triumphantly:
"Ouyang Ke, you have been enjoying yourself in Shu for the past two years, but you don't know that your martial arts skills have long been outdated! What's the point of my martial arts? There are many people in the Demon Suppression Division who are better than me. With your current martial arts skills, you want to join the Demon Suppression Division? Hey, go ask your uncle for some elixirs and magical skills first, and practice hard for a few years before you talk!"
After saying this, he rode away.
Ouyang Ke asked unwillingly: "Where are you going?"
Zhao Min said: "I'm going to find Master Ni Kun, if you have the guts, come with me! "
“…”
Ouyang Ke's expression changed for a while, he stamped his feet and said angrily:
"That kind of lustful playboy... Minmin, you are not good at judging people and are like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth. Do you know that?"
Although his tone was angry, his voice was as soft as the buzz of a mosquito. After he finished speaking, he shrank his neck and looked around. After making sure that no one heard him, he breathed a sigh of relief, ran to his own white camel, climbed onto the camel, and galloped towards his uncle's mansion.
After two years of living happily in Shu, things in Chang'an seem to have changed . Even a top-notch warrior like Zhao Min can beat me... I have to find my uncle quickly and ask him what happened.
