Chapter 864: Forced Expedition (5)
A celestial crystal flickered in the chaos.
It was the size of a broad bean, crystal clear and moist, emitting countless Taoist rhymes, infinite vitality, and infinite creation. It was squeezed and collapsed together, and after a magical chemical reaction, it condensed into one, completely perfect. It was a strange fluctuation that Lu Yi could not understand or analyze at all.
This heavenly crystal is of very high quality.
The annihilated heaven is of extraordinary quality.
The number of lives lost is countless.
The derived Sky Resentment was hundreds of millions of miles in radius. The dark blue Sky Resentment was like fog and dream, and it rushed towards Lu Yi at a terrifying speed that was tens of millions times faster than the speed of light.
Linghu Jue smiled and hooked his finger, and dozens of Taoist monks in Lu Yi's mortal world were silently swept out by the starlight, emitting a majestic life wave, and rushed towards Tianyuan. The next moment, dozens of Taoist monks were completely annihilated, and Tianyuan also disappeared without a trace.
Lu Yi clasped his hands together and muttered the mantra for salvation.
Of course, he knew it was useless.
The souls of all the living beings in this heavenly realm were annihilated.
Dozens of Taoist monks were killed without even a trace of their souls remaining.
This sutra and mantra for salvation is not for the living beings in this heaven, nor for the dozens of Taoist monks who died on behalf of Lu Fu. It is for Lu Fu's own heart which has become as cold as ice that has been frozen for thousands of years!
Only through the muttering of scriptures did Lu Yi barely feel that he was still a living being?
Whether in Dayin, in Jishengtian, or even ascending to Liangyitian... many lives died at the hands of Lu Yi.
Back then, when the Baihutang was fighting for territory in Dayin, countless gang leaders, big and small, were killed at the behest of Lu Yi or were killed by him personally.
In Jishengtian, there were countless monks who were killed by Lu Yi himself, or by his disciples, or by the demons and monsters under his command.
When it comes to the Yin-Yang Heaven, it goes without saying.
Take the case of the time in the ancient city of Loulan, when facing the coalition forces of the four holy clans, countless gods and demons in Lu Yi’s mortal world joined forces to attack. How many insects were annihilated in an instant?
But, those lives were killed.
Whether they are mortals, cultivators, humans, or alien insects.
They all had conflicts of interest with Lu Fu, and they all had irreconcilable conflicts with Lu Fu during a certain period of Lu Fu's life... In order to survive, Lu Fu took action and they fell.
Because I want to live, I kill their lives.
Very selfish statement.
But Lu Yi could forgive himself - as a poor fellow living in great darkness in his previous life, he had such a wonderful fortune in this life. He wanted to live more smoothly and live longer. He was a little selfish... Lu Yi could forgive himself.
But along the way.
Thousands of celestial realms, large and small, had their origins sucked out by the Na Yuan Bottle, and then were completely annihilated by a single blow from Linghu Lun, transforming into a dazzling celestial crystal.
Lu Yi also paid the price of tens of thousands of Taoist monks, who died in his place!
These thousands of celestial realms, big and small!
How many living beings are there?
They were originally healthy and had no disasters. Although they could not be said to be worry-free, at least they lived a good life.
But Lu Fei came.
Lu Yi came with Linghu Jui.
As a result, their daily lives were completely strangled and their lives were completely harvested!
They had never posed any threat to Lu Yi, but their lives came to an abrupt end here because of Lu Yi, and there was no follow-up - under Linghu Yan's terrifying magical powers, the souls of all living beings in these annihilated heavens were completely severed from the three lives, and the past, present and future were completely cut off, with no possibility of any reincarnation!
Lu Yu's heart gradually grew colder.
The more celestial realms were destroyed, the colder his heart became. After thousands of celestial realms were destroyed, Lu Yu could no longer look directly into his own heart - it was so cold and indifferent...
He didn't even dare to use his Dharma Eye to spy on himself.
At this glance, it must be filled with heinous sins and endless blood, right?
"I can't die in this life!" After Lu Yi finished reciting a scripture for salvation, he warned himself in his heart - I must not die in this life. If I die, there will be no chance of turning over, and I will definitely not be able to be a human in the next life.
Will we be livestock or insects forever, generation after generation?
That kind of life is too miserable.
Therefore, no matter how cruel fate is, we must struggle, be tenacious, or, at any cost, live hysterically! Even if we are possessed by evil spirits, even if we are insane, we must live!
"Before, I always thought that I was at least a good person."
"From today on, I can only be considered a 'human' in terms of blood..." Lu Yu labeled himself coldly and indifferently: "But judging from my actions, I am nothing."
The primordial mixed pearl flickered faintly.
A strange dim light illuminated Lu Yi's entire mind. The Taimi Emperor Axe, which had been showing off its might in Lu Yi's mind and suppressing the Fantian Seal and other treasures to the point of trembling in fear, was now trembling in fear and did not dare to get close to the Taichu Huntong Pearl at all.
Lu Yi's mind, which was originally filled with Buddha's light and auspicious clouds, like a holy land of Buddha, gradually became subtle and unpredictable. His mind seemed to have turned into the legendary netherworld, with only a faint, cold, dark light silently shuttling through the void, and no other colors.
Thoughts appeared and disappeared in my mind one by one, and these thoughts turned into the color of clear black crystal, filled with a kind of cold, dead silence, and a rhythm that made people feel inexplicably lonely and terrifying.
In his mind, the image of the three-eyed god has completely merged with Lu Yi's soul and spirit.
It was a statue that was thirty-six thousand feet tall, sitting in the center of the mind. It looked ordinary, exactly like Lu Yi's physical body, in the form of a bald monk without any unusual signs or visions.
The whole body is translucent, with a faint black glow, as if it were carved from black crystal.
All the great power and all the strange visions were gathered in the body. In the area covered by the black light emitted by the soul and Dharma image, everything became chaotic and blurred. All the mysteries of heaven and the rhyme of Tao became blurred and gradually merged into one with the Taichu Huntong Pearl.
The Na Yuan bottle was suspended in front of Lu Yi.
The small bottle, which was more than a foot high, still had about 80% of space left after draining out the world origins of thousands of large and small heavens!
Lu Yi turned around, with a hint of vacant smile, and whispered to Linghu Luan: "Master Linghu, we have already searched all the heavens nearby. I'm afraid the journey to the next heaven is very long!"
Linghu Jui sat in the pavilion, looking at Lu Yi with a smile: "Little monk, don't use the experience of you insects in the lower world to measure our magical powers... You in the lower world... don't have the concept of 'far away'. This word has no meaning to us."
She played with the bean-sized sky crystal she had just collected, pointed at Lu Yi, nodded and smiled, "These days, you have been respectful and obedient, and you have been quite serious in doing things... Well, it is your good fortune that Uncle Wuyou chose you."
“However, my Linghu clan has a great cause in the Supreme Taichu Heavenly Family. Uncle Wuyou holds great power in the family and has many affairs to attend to. Although you are the one he personally chose, he may not have the time to look after you in the future… To be honest, you are too weak and your foundation is too poor. You can’t help Uncle Wuyou in any way.”
“But I’m different.”
"You understand me?"
Lu Yi's eyes, like his mind now, originally had a distinct black and white color, but now had completely turned into a faint black color. In the dim light, Lu Yi smiled and said, "I understand. Master Linghu..."
Linghu Jue coughed lightly and said, "Call me Master Jue."
'master'?
Lu Yu pursed his lips and smiled in a calm and indifferent manner: "It can be seen that Master Juan is ambitious and wants to make further progress in the family... Being favored by Master Wuyou and letting Master Juan supervise this operation shows that Master Juan's status is extraordinary, and Master Wuyou is particularly fond of you."
"However, I believe that the affairs of a large family, whether in the upper or lower realms, are all the same. In the end, it's all about the same things - the family's assets are limited, and there are only a few good positions for people to be assigned. There are many direct descendants, and who can get to the top and who can occupy a better position depends not only on the favor of the elders, but also on the family's own means and the power of their cronies."
"Although I have been favored by Lord Wuyou and have the honor of being under the patronage of the Linghu clan... I am still a mortal from the lower realms after all. If I go to the Supreme Primordial Heaven, I will have no roots and no foundation. It is possible that I will be taken advantage of and beaten. Therefore, I need a backer, a backer, and a big, strong leg to hold on to."
"But why does the backer become my backer, why does the backer become my backer, why does that strong and powerful thigh let me hug it tightly instead of kicking me to death?"
"That depends on my worth."
Lu Yi smiled calmly and said, "I think I am quite valuable... I am very capable in doing things, and I have gathered many talented people around me, all of whom are resourceful, wise, talented, and have great prospects. I am valuable. Moreover, I know the current affairs, the principles of the world, and know when to advance and retreat..."
Lu Yi clasped his hands together and bowed to Linghu Jue: "From now on, I will trouble Master Jue to take care of me."
Linghu Jue's eyes widened, and she looked at Lu Yu in shock. She was stunned for a while in disbelief, then she pointed at Lu Yu and laughed at Qingyou and the other two girls: "Did you see it? Did you see it? Your little monk is really a smart man... Oh, it's strange, if these words were put in the upper realm, there would be very few people who could comprehend them... Even some of the emperor's sons are just idiots, they can't understand these principles!"
"Good, good, good, he is indeed a talent."
"It's really strange, how can you understand this truth?" Linghu Ju looked at Lu Yu in amazement, she sincerely praised: "Miss, this time you really picked up a treasure... From now on, follow me and work hard, I won't treat you unfairly..."
"My Linghu family is one of the top three powerful families under the command of Emperor Taiyu. Follow me and I guarantee you will have a bright future!" Linghu Jun said passionately, and patted her chest, which was a little flat, making Lu Yi worry about the nutrition of her future child.
However, Lu Yi now had some more questions in his mind.
What's going on with Linghu Lun?
Is it necessary for her to get so excited and nag about such a simple truth? It is a common practice for the direct descendants of a wealthy family, regardless of gender, to recruit followers, organize forces, compete for family resources, and strive to climb up...
This kind of principle, if applied to Liangyi Heaven... no, to Jisheng Heaven in the lower realm, or to any small noble family in any slightly larger city in Dayin, those slightly smarter children would naturally understand the principles of "family disputes" and "brotherly feuds" before they reach adulthood.
On the contrary, why does Linghu Jun look like he has never seen the world?
Especially, thousands of celestial realms, both large and small, have been destroyed along the way. Linghu Jun, who had been drinking tea and thinking deeply about various poems and sentences, could only come up with two poems that were worse than doggerel...doggerel?
What about "snowflakes are like feathers" and "disappearing even when falling into the water"...
In Jishengtian, any country kid in elementary school could make up dozens of sentences like this, but Linghu Jun spent so much brainpower and time to come up with just two pieces of crap?
hehe!
With her cultivation, she could generate at least tens of millions of ideas in an instant... Her thinking speed and thinking ability were definitely a million times more than that of ordinary people. As long as she read a few more books, she could come up with extremely exquisite words and sentences even if she used the "exhaustive method".
Why...the poems she composed are so disgusting?
Moreover, she was so proud that she showed off her two inferior doggerel poems to Lu Yi, the "famous plagiarist" of the Great Yin Dynasty? Who gave her the courage?
The already evil Lu Yi smiled, locked a few doubtful thoughts in his mind, and then shouted softly.
Linghu Jun indeed displayed magical powers that were in line with her status.
The "spatial distance" of the lower world really has no meaning to her.
The rest of the journey was smooth.
Linghu Lu did nothing, but there was a natural Dao rhythm blessing on the alligator turtle, and the speed of the alligator turtle suddenly soared 100,000 times - a full 100,000 times! Can you imagine? A huge alligator turtle actually ran faster than a rabbit... Well, in this dimension, no rabbit can run so fast!
In short, it is incredibly fast, so fast that it goes against common sense.
The alligator turtle was moving rapidly forward in the chaos, and the chaotic space was constantly folding, twisting, and shattering. Large and small "wormholes" kept appearing in front of the alligator turtle. He directly shuttled through the wormholes, saving an unknown amount of distance on his already terrifying running speed.
Next, on average, it would take less than a quarter of an hour for Lu Yi and the others to reach a heavenly realm.
In just a dozen breaths, an entire celestial realm could be destroyed.
Lu Yi started to reap the harvest with an expressionless face, while Linghu Jun showed no mercy at all and smashed and annihilated the heavens one by one.
There was nothing worth mentioning about the process of extracting the origin of the world and annihilating the world itself. The only thing worth mentioning was that Lu Yi carefully comprehended the Dao rhyme wrapped around the alligator turtle while on the road.
The three-eyed divine figure that had completely merged with his soul exuded even more incredible magic.
The 'Speed' Avenue is rapidly improving at an incredible efficiency.
Gradually, Lu Yi's mastery of 'speed' has exceeded the limit of this dimensional space, and gradually climbed to a higher level. And the 'time' law caused by 'speed' also increased rapidly.
As a result, the Avenue of Space was also improving little by little, and the Avenue of Time and Space was constantly improving, which stimulated the Avenue of Power which served as the "bearing", allowing this pure Avenue of Power to continue to climb upward.
The Taichu Huntong Pearl emits a faint light, illuminating the mind and cleansing the soul.
Lu Yi vaguely sensed a strange causal clue, but this causal clue was hidden in the deepest part of the Taichu Huntong Pearl. With his current cultivation level and his current "status", he was not qualified to touch it and did not have the power to touch it.
As a result, his mood has become extremely indifferent.
He ignored these things and let everything unfold naturally. He just numbly and programmatically harvested the heavens one by one.
The origin of the world in the Nayuan bottle was rising bit by bit.
Time passes, chaos lasts for countless years.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Suddenly, a twin celestial realm appeared in front of them. With a huge sun as the center, two celestial realms of almost the same size were like Tai Chi twin fish, slowly rotating around the huge sun.
Each of these two heavenly realms taken separately is weaker than the Yin-Yang Heaven.
However, when the energies of the two heavens are combined together, it is much stronger than the Yin-Yang Heaven.
It is obvious that these two twin heavens are enemies of each other - one side is full of vitality, with green mountains and clear waters everywhere, Taoists, Buddhists, demons, and countless rare birds and animals breeding and thriving. It is truly a beautiful world with flowers and splendor.
The other heaven was gloomy and dark, with bones all over the ground and ghosts everywhere. This was a place where ghosts were cultivated, and their aura was more ruthless and bloodthirsty.
Dozens of time and space corridors have naturally formed between the two heavens, and the monks from the two heavens can travel back and forth through these time and space corridors. At the entrances and exits of the time and space corridors of the two heavens, both sides have built military towns and cities of astonishing scale, stationed countless monks, and conflicts of varying scales break out at all times.
When Lu Yi and others arrived near the celestial realm of the twins, there were two time and space corridors near which Taoists, Buddhists, and demon cultivators joined forces and were engaging in a crazy conflict of astonishing scale with the attacking ghost cultivators from the opposite side.
This is definitely a clash of high standards.
There were nearly ten Buddha-level powerful beings on both sides who joined the battlefield, and there were nearly four hundred other Buddha-level powerful beings participating in the battle!
As for other Bodhisattva-level and True Immortal-level "soldiers", there were hundreds of thousands of them, fighting bloody battles in the sky. On the ground, countless low-level skeletons and ghosts were like tides, attacking the cities defended by ordinary monks one after another. On the battle line that stretched for tens of thousands of miles, the total number of undead spirits and monks participating in the battle exceeded one billion!
Behind the battle line where the war broke out between the two sides, there were nearly thirty Buddha-level mighty beings hiding in plain sight to watch the battle. There were also thousands of Buddha-level mighty beings hiding in large formations and prohibitions!
War is indeed the best catalyst for the emergence of masters.
In this pair of twin heavens, the total number of Buddha-level powers has far exceeded that of the Yin-Yang Heaven, and the number of Buddha-level powers is hundreds of times the original total number of Buddhas in the Yin-Yang Heaven!
When Lu Yi just ascended to Liang Yi Heaven, there were only more than 300 documented Buddhas in the huge Liang Yi Heaven Buddhist sect!
And this heaven!
Tsk tsk!
That is to say, this heaven is too far away from Liangyi Heaven. If it were not for Linghu Lun's great magical power, even if a Buddha-level power wanted to travel through the chaotic space and find the other world, it would be an extremely slim possibility. Otherwise, Lu Yi had no doubt that this pair of twin heavens would have already united against the outside world and launched a full-scale invasion of Liangyi Heaven.
Having suffered so much, Lu Yu no longer dared to use his spirit to spy on the reality of this heaven. He just opened his eyes and looked at the two heavens in the distance. With this glance, Lu Yu roughly judged that the total number of Buddha-level masters in these two heavens was about a hundred!
There is no strange environment of the ancient city of Loulan.
Without the cruel and vicious means of Linghu Wuyou, who used the life essence of trillions of creatures to forcibly enhance and catalyze, in this spatial dimension, in an "ordinary big world", hundreds of Buddha-level powers can be naturally bred - more importantly, these hundreds of Buddhas "exist at the same time" rather than "the total number in historical statistics". The foundation and climate of this world are already extremely amazing!
Lu Yi was just about to say something, but the glance he just gave had already alarmed the true top power in this heavenly realm.
From that world full of ghosts, a mountain of bones at the core surrounded by nine blood rivers, a bloody murderous aura rose into the sky. A carriage made of skeletons several miles in diameter flew into the air, and dozens of winged bone dragons pulled the carriage. An old zombie with a pale face, a strong aura of death wrapped around his body, and a very good appearance, long beard, and square face, like a well-educated scholar, sat on the carriage and rushed towards Lu Yi at an incredible speed.
And in that vibrant heaven, also in the core of an extremely beautiful and famous mountain, a dazzling golden light shot up into the sky, rushing towards them with a sharp sword sound.
In the golden light, there was a child who looked like seven or eight years old. He was white and tender, with a golden ring around his neck and wearing a lotus-colored short-sleeved shirt. Behind him were thirty-six golden short swords about a foot long floating, and the sword light around him was astonishingly powerful.
In the blink of an eye, an old zombie and a cute little boy rushed into the chaos less than ten thousand miles away from Lu Yi.
The old zombie shouted, "Which Taoist friend is passing by? In my cave, I have a bottle of 'Red Beauty's Tears' that has been aged for tens of millions of years. Would you like to go back with me and get drunk together?"
The child shouted sternly, "You just peeped in, you were so rude. I wonder where you are from and why you are here?"
Lu Yu nodded slightly.
Well, as soon as I heard the confidence in the way these two spoke, I knew that in the fierce battle between the twins in heaven, the old zombie side had the upper hand, while the children's side was clearly at a disadvantage.
Before Lu Yi could say anything, Linghu Luan had already spoken: "It's quite interesting. Your world is quite interesting. You two have a good background... Fahai has just surrendered, and you two are just right to be his assistants! It's settled!"
Lu Yu raised his eyebrows. A pair of deputies?
The old zombie and the child were both stunned, looked at each other, and then burst into laughter at the same time.
The old zombie shook his head and laughed, "What a big mouth this girl has... Hey, this little tongue is so clever and lively, and so eloquent. I'll just cut it off and brew another jar of beauty's tears!"
The child shook his head and said, "This Taoist fellow is so arrogant. Well, since the old zombie king is interested, I will help you... I will not get involved in this matter."
The child hugged his hands to his chest, his body swayed, and he retreated tens of thousands of miles.
The old zombie laughed wildly and opened his right hand. A white, miserable deathly aura condensed into a giant palm the size of a hundred acres, spewing out ghostly evil aura. It bypassed Lu Yi who was standing in front of it and went straight to grab Linghu Lun.
