Chapter 383: Thousands of Forms and Appearances, the Great Disaster Begins
The human race in the Lingfa world also originated from the Xuanhuang world, but their ancestors were hunted down for creating anomalies, and they also have fantasies about immortals and gods. Those ancient beings that are powerful enough to be omnipotent are often called immortals and gods. This has also led to the emergence of titles such as martial immortals and martial gods over the years.
To dare to use the name of immortality as the great way is arrogant in Gu Chen's view.
However, the other party's appearance was too shocking, so he did not dare to express his thoughts.
He said respectfully, "We will form an alliance, share life and death, and weather the martial arts catastrophe together. Of course, if you need anything, you can also ask. I will go back and discuss it with the Lord of Heaven and Earth."
Daoxin God replied: "It is not impossible to form an alliance. As for what is needed, we will see later. I will send envoys to the Lingfa Great World to discuss."
Hearing this, Gu Chen hesitated to speak.
He wanted to visit the other party's world and collect intelligence, but the other party verbally agreed to an alliance, so he couldn't push his luck.
If the opponent is not strong enough, he can still use his strength to overwhelm him.
Thinking like lightning, Gu Chen made a quick decision and said, "Then welcome Your Excellency. How should I address you?"
"With myriad forms and appearances, I follow the Dharma. If I am in my heart, then I am myself."
The Daoxin God left these words and then disappeared into the void.
Gu Chen stood there in a daze, thinking about the other person's words.
Thousands of bodies and appearances?
It’s really mysterious!
In any case, he had to go back. He understood that the real meaning of the other party's appearance was to warn him.
…
Inside the Zixiao Palace.
Jiang Changsheng took back the Eye of Infinite Heaven and Earth.
"The Great Dao? How arrogant! How dare you call yourself the Great Dao?"
Jiang Changsheng thought silently. In his opinion, the so-called spiritual methods and ancient arts were all born out of rules, and the rules were evolved from the Tao. Cultivating immortals is a process of pursuing the Tao, not the Tao itself.
Perhaps the great way has to retreat into obscurity before the rules can take hold.
Anyone can learn ancient arts and spiritual methods, but they will be suppressed by the divine martial world. However, the immortal way is different. It is the power of martial arts that repels them, and it is not tolerated by the way of heaven!
This shows that, from the perspective of martial arts, ancient techniques and spiritual methods cannot threaten the origin of martial arts. It can even be said that the three are inherently connected.
The root of martial arts may be the evolution of the Tao. It is precisely because the immortal way pursues the Tao, which is not tolerated by the Tao, that Jiang Changsheng is able to practice and relies on the survival system.
Could it be that the survival system itself is also a kind of avenue, so that it can resist the suppression of other avenues?
As Jiang Changsheng's cultivation level increased, he gradually began to touch the Tao.
What is Tao? All living beings have their own understanding. What is the great Tao? That is the correct path of practice. However, people’s hearts are different, so the practice will also be different.
Jiang Changsheng had just finished a long period of retreat and entered a mysterious state of enlightenment.
…
In the fifth heaven, above the sea of clouds, an old tree stood in the clouds. Under the tree, a heavenly general was resting. It was Jiang Shan.
Jiang Shan was wearing the silver armor of a heavenly general, and looked even more majestic than he had a hundred years ago. He leaned against a tree trunk, with his right hand resting on his knee, staring at the horizon, quiet and absent-minded. The vertical eye on his forehead was closed, like a blood scar.
"Jiang Shan, what are you doing here? You should get out now."
Jiang Tianming flew over and asked with a smile. He used to have slow growth in height, but now he is very tall. Jiang Shan looks short in front of him.
Jiang Shan looked up at him with a confused look in his eyes, and said, "I don't want to go down. It feels meaningless."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tianming could not help but bend down, stare at him, and ask, "Don't you think it's boring if there's no fighting?"
"Yes, now that Kunlun Realm is controlled by the Heavenly Court, and there are servants of the gods to handle trivial matters, our task has become to mediate the relationship between the various races, which is really boring."
"You little brat, aren't you going to do good things?"
"Peace in the world is naturally a good thing, but if the world is peaceful, I might as well practice hard. My contribution to maintaining world peace is not that great."
"One day, the Kunlun Realm will encounter foreign enemies, and sooner or later you will be needed to fight them."
"Grandpa is so strong, why does he need me to wait? Didn't you hear from the Chang clan that Grandpa alone destroyed the peerless masters of the Shenwu world and protected everything?"
Jiang Shan said weakly, and Jiang Tianming also fell silent.
Jiang Tianming sighed and said, "That's true."
He suddenly felt bored too.
Both of them are warlike people, so they naturally dare not blame Jiang Changsheng. They only complain that they are growing too slowly. If they are strong enough, why should Jiang Changsheng face them personally?
Jiang Tianming sat down too, and the two of them stared at the sky in a daze.
However, the two of them did not remain silent for long, as the voice of Heavenly Monarch Chen Li resounded through the Fifth Heaven:
"The thirty-six great generals of the Heavenly Gang and the seventy-two great generals of the Earthly Demons, come to the Lingxiao Palace immediately!"
When the two heard this, their expressions suddenly straightened and they looked at each other.
How many years!
I haven’t been to Lingxiao Palace for a long time!
The two of them immediately got up and rushed to the Ninth Heaven.
In the Lingxiao Palace, the heavenly generals arrived one after another. The Four Sacred Marshals had already arrived, and the heavenly generals saluted them one after another.
The Heavenly Court has been established for so long that most of the affairs are arranged by the Three Heavenly Sovereigns and the Four Sacred Marshals, while the Emperor of Heaven is in seclusion in the Thirty-third Heaven and is rarely seen.
Is it possible that His Majesty will show up today?
The heavenly generals were secretly excited. Jiang Tianming and Jiang Shan arrived and stood with Jiang Jian and others, also discussing the matter.
The Heavenly Emperor only allowed the Heavenly Generals to come, which clearly showed that he was going to fight. If it was just an internal matter of Heaven, why wouldn't he have issued an order to the Immortals?
Soon, all the celestial generals in the heavenly palace arrived, and the three celestial kings also hurried over. Seeing them standing in place, the celestial generals dared not make any more noise and stood in place one after another.
The Lingxiao Palace fell into silence.
They noticed that the Emperor's Dragon Throne was no longer there, and the platform was empty, which made them secretly confused.
At this moment, a burst of colorful light flashed, attracting the attention of all the immortals and gods, who all widened their eyes.
The Great Dao Qianyuan Divine Throne appeared, nine light balls on the back of the chair were shining, and billowing clouds and mist were emanating from the base. Jiang Changsheng, who was sitting on the throne, had a lazy posture, and the Zhiyang Divine Light was floating above his right shoulder, and the sunlight emitted from it obscured his face.
The three great celestial monarchs and the four great generals were also revered.
For some reason, Jiang Changsheng's posture, although slightly lazy, gave everyone a stronger sense of oppression.
Ji Wujun's eyes were shining as he looked at Jiang Changsheng, while the other heavenly generals were full of admiration.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Chen Li opened his mouth and shouted, and the heavenly generals followed suit, saluting one after another while waiting to see what Daozu would say.
After all the immortals and gods raised their heads, Jiang Changsheng slowly said, "The reason why you are here today is because of a major event that concerns the survival of the Heavenly Court and all the sentient beings in the Kunlun Realm."
Upon hearing this, all the immortals and gods became nervous. Jiang Tianming and Jiang Shan's eyes lit up and they began to expect a war.
Jiang Changsheng told the immortals about the existence of the old ancient religion, the spiritual world, and other worlds, which shocked the immortals.
I didn’t expect that there are so many worlds in the endless void, and even other cultivation systems that are different from martial arts.
"I want to teach you the way of immortality, but I am a reincarnated body and have not yet fully recovered. Although you have not yet left the martial arts, you already have the luck of immortals. The end of any method of cultivation is to pursue the great way. Even if I reopen the way of immortality in the future, you don't need to give up all your previous efforts."
"Now, if the Heavenly Court and Kunlun Realm want to survive, they must face the other worlds in the endless void, and also face the upcoming martial arts catastrophe. All immortals and gods must work hard to practice, especially the Heavenly Generals. After a hundred years, the Heavenly Sovereign and the Grand Marshal will select ten Heavenly Generals to go to the Spiritual Law World to discuss cooperation."
Jiang Changsheng's tone was neither hurried nor slow. The martial arts catastrophe made the immortals nervous, but his tone made the tension quickly dissipate.
"The great calamity is approaching. It may seem like a tribulation, but it may also be a great opportunity. I wish to reach the summit of the avenue with you all, and we will never die or be destroyed!"
Hearing these words, the generals' blood boiled and they all responded.
Jiang Changsheng disappeared with the Da Dao Qian Yuan Divine Throne , leaving the immortals and gods discussing excitedly.
Chen Li looked at Jiang Tianming and Jiang Shan, and saw that they clenched their fists, with three eyes shining. He raised the corner of his mouth, hiding his achievements and fame.
In the years that followed, the heavenly generals ignited their fighting spirit and were no longer lazy. In addition to carrying out their missions, they usually made the most of their time to practice martial arts.
A hundred years is not a long time for them today.
…
In a mansion, Lu Shenzhou was meditating under a tree, leaves were falling, and a figure was walking quickly towards him. It was Li Canghai.
Hundreds of years have passed since the battle with Daozu, and his entire temperament has changed. He no longer has the carefree and heroic spirit of the past, and he exudes a coldness that makes people stay away from him.
He came to Lv Shenzhou and asked, "Sir, when can I leave?"
He didn't find the Chang clan, and his best brother was dead. He felt extremely depressed and filled with hatred. If Lu Shenzhou had not been willing to cultivate him to become stronger, he would have given up long ago.
Without opening his eyes, Lu Shenzhou replied, "Soon."
"It's almost time, it's almost time again. When will you really let me leave? And why are you big shots in the Shenwu world so indifferent? So many people died, and you didn't react at all?"
Li Canghai said in a deep voice , anger about to burst out of his eyes.
He has been here for hundreds of years, and he has never heard anyone mention what happened in the underworld. Lu Shenzhou has even been in seclusion, as if the matter has been left unresolved.
He had also expected the Shenwu Realm to take action and capture Daozu, but he had not heard any news of Daozu being captured or killed. What made him most crazy was that he had no idea why Daozu wanted to keep him alive.
Definitely not a coincidence!
Lu Shenzhou opened his eyes, glanced at him, with murderous intent in his eyes, and said: "How dare you! If I hadn't protected you, would you have been able to practice martial arts safely? You must know how dangerous it is for you to be let go by Daozu!"
Li Canghai was silent.
"Look at me again. Do you really think I am indifferent? Is my current fate a preferential treatment? I am under house arrest. Do you understand?"
Lu Shenzhou said coldly. He felt just as aggrieved as Li Canghai .
"Fortunately, this is in my residence, which is isolated by a formation. Otherwise, your words would be enough to get you captured by the God's Punishment Army. I said it would be soon, and it would be soon. Recently, the God's Punishment Army has swept through the Xuanhuang world, and the news of the commotion in the Heavenly Court has also spread. The Shenwu Realm has made a final conclusion and has tied the Heavenly Court Daozu to the Old Ancient Sect. Ten years ago, the God's Punishment Army was attacked by the Old Ancient Sect, and suffered heavy casualties. This is already a sign of the beginning of the great catastrophe. It won't be long before the Shenwu Realm needs my help again, and then I will naturally take you away!"
Lu Shenzhou's expression was quite complicated.
He still hasn't figured out why Daozu spared Li Canghai's life. Li Canghai's talent is good, but far inferior to his. Li Canghai claims that he doesn't know Daozu and even harbors hatred towards him.
Lu Shenzhou was only clear about one thing, that as long as he held on to Li Canghai, he would have the chance to see Daozu again!
