Volume 5: The World of Conferred Gods Chapter 15: Facing the Sun and Refining Fusang
hiss!
Jiang Ziya only felt a chill on his back, and the voice seemed somewhat familiar.
I slowly turned my head and saw that the person who spoke was actually an old acquaintance.
"Brother Shen Gongbao! I heard that you have left Kunlun Mountain. We haven't seen each other for a long time. It's really great to see you again."
Jiang Ziya seemed to be truly happy, with a sincere look on his face.
However, Shen Gongbao secretly complained in his heart, he thought he was the honest young man before, this scheming Jiang Ziya, he used to think Jiang Ziya was a fool, easy to deceive and fool, but now he knows that this guy used all the military tactics he learned on his fellow brother.
He just teased Jiang Ziya from time to time, but Jiang Ziya directly isolated Shen Gongbao from the Chan sect and drove Shen Gongbao out of the Chan sect. Although Jiang Ziya and Shen Gongbao could not stay in the Chan sect, Jiang Ziya at least played a role in fueling the flames.
If his senior brother hadn't blessed it for him this time, he would probably still be kept in the dark until now.
But now he has seen through Jiang Ziya's true face, and the method of bad luck taught by his senior brother. Even if Jiang Ziya is a little clever, he still has to swallow his leopard saliva. After studying Taoism on Jin'ao Island for several years and making some achievements, Jiale asked Shen Gongbao to come out for some experience. The first person Shen Gongbao thought of was Jiang Ziya.
They are close brothers. They entered the sect together and learned Taoism together. He has just learned the best Taoist techniques, so how can he not share them with Jiang Ziya?
"I also miss you so much, so I come to see you whenever I have time. Come on, where are you going, let's go together."
Jiang Ziya felt something was wrong when he heard this. To be honest, after Shen Gongbao left Kunlun Mountain, Jiang Ziya no longer paid attention to him. After all, outside Kunlun Mountain, Shen Gongbao was just an ordinary leopard spirit and could not cause any big waves. Now that they meet again, it is just to save face and call him senior brother.
As for being afraid, he is not really afraid. Although Jiang Ziya admits that his cultivation is not as good as Shen Gongbao, but this time when he came out of Kunlun Mountain, he received the reward from his master Yuanshi Tianzun. He has a four-legged beast under his seat, a Wu Ji apricot yellow flag on his head, and a magic whip in his hand. He is armed to the teeth. Even though he is only at the Yuanshen realm now, he does not take the Golden Immortal seriously.
Shen Gongbao had better aptitude than him and was able to become an immortal, but he was only one step ahead of him and became a true immortal.
Um!
How can this be a mysterious immortal?
Only then did Jiang Ziya notice that Shen Gongbao had actually broken through to the realm of True Immortal and reached the realm of Mysterious Immortal. How long had it been? What on earth had this guy experienced after leaving Kunlun Mountain? Did he take a powerful pill?
I couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
Why did Jiang Ziya turn to studying the art of war and other minor arts? Wasn't it because Yuanshi Tianzun said that it would be difficult for him to become an immortal in this lifetime and that he would never be able to achieve true immortality in his lifetime? That's why Jiang Ziya went down the mountain to seek a way to become rich and noble in the world. Of course, it would be even better if he could seek a way to become a god. In Jiang Ziya's opinion, there were so many god positions in the Conferred God Conferment, and as the person who conferred the gods, he should always keep a first-tier god position for him.
But these are all inferior. If one can seek the way to immortality, who would be willing to practice the way of gods and the way of the human world?
The Chan Sect is full of talented people, all of them are geniuses. I thought Shen Gongbao would be like him, living a mediocre life, no, even worse than him. After all, he already had a way out, but Shen Gongbao didn't. As a result, Shen Gongbao actually succeeded in the path to immortality. Not long after becoming a true immortal, he became a mysterious immortal. Seeing Shen Gongbao's path to immortality so smoothly is even more painful than killing him.
We agreed to be mediocre together, why do you want to go solo?
Jiang Ziya tightened the whip in his hand. If possible, he even wanted to beat Shen Gongbao to death.
Looking at Jiang Ziya's changeable eyes, Shen Gongbao knew that his method of bad luck and disaster was taking effect.
Over the years, he has been seeking the truth on Jin'ao Island, and Jiale has been teaching him wholeheartedly. Shen Gongbao has finally achieved something and is now able to control his bad luck. In the past, he could not distinguish between friend and foe, and not only brought bad luck to those around him, but also to himself. Moreover, it was completely out of control. There was no distinction between him and his bad luck. No, bad luck was more like the master of Shen Gongbao.
But now it’s different. Shen Gongbao has learned how to control bad luck and can already initially control bad luck and use it to cast spells.
Just like what happened to Jiang Ziya just now.
But don’t underestimate that voice: Fellow Daoist, please stay, this is the magic formula used by Shen Gongbao to cast a spell.
With a voice of "Please stay, fellow Taoist", endless bad luck fell directly on Jiang Ziya. This bad luck is also related to cultivation. The higher the cultivation, the deeper the understanding of the way of disasters, and the more powerful it is. Shen Gongbao is now a Xuanxian. If he casts a spell on a Taiyi Jinxian or a Daluo Jinxian, the power may not be so considerable, or even negligible.
But casting spells on Jiang Ziya, who is at the Yuanshen realm, is extremely powerful.
In fact, Yuanshi Tianzun definitely knew how to control bad luck, but he did not teach Shen Gongbao. Instead, he taught Jiang Ziya some ways to control good luck. Before, Jiang Ziya asked Ji Chang to carry him to Xiqi to determine the destiny of the country, and he used this way of good luck. Unfortunately, Yuanshi Tianzun had other ideas in his mind and did not teach Jiang Ziya the complete way of good luck.
Whether it is Jiang Ziya or Shen Gongbao, if they can control this avenue, they will have a bright future.
However, Jiang Ziya, a man with a promising future, did not meet Yuanshi Tianzun's expectations. In Yuanshi Tianzun's view, Jiang Ziya was just a tool for him to control the human race. He was not much stronger than Shen Gongbao, so how could he teach him wholeheartedly?
Now Jiang Ziya is affected by Shen Gongbao's bad luck. Not only his own good fortune is suppressed and he begins to be contaminated by calamity, but even his character is affected. Otherwise, Jiang Ziya would not behave like this at this moment.
After a long time, Jiang Ziya seemed to realize something.
"I was just about to talk to you about my experiences during this period. Please go ahead, senior brother."
The whip in his hand was tightened.
Shen Gongbao seemed not to notice Jiang Ziya's actions. He walked straight forward and chatted with Jiang Ziya in a casual manner.
If Jiang Ziya could observe his own luck, he would find that the longer he stayed with Shen Gongbao and the more they talked, the faster his own luck declined. His originally good luck was replaced by bad luck, and calamity energy also began to gather towards Jiang Ziya.
The two walked away.
Jiale couldn't help but smile as he looked at the two men's backs. Shen Gongbao was indeed a promising talent.
His comprehension of the way of disasters and calamities was also as if assisted by God, and he had obviously got the hang of it. If he continued like this, Shen Gongbao's "fellow Taoist, please stay" might be more powerful than the Seven Arrows Book.
The Seven Arrows Book!
Jiale seemed to remember something. He looked up at the sky and his eyes happened to fall on the Sun.
This is a world where bloodline aptitude is important. Sometimes the upper limit of a creature is determined when it is born.
For example, the first batch of creatures were all innate gods and demons. As long as they did not die, they would at least be Golden Immortals.
Then come the innate creatures. These are much worse than the innate gods and demons, but they also have innate bodies, and basically they all have the foundation of a Golden Immortal. Finally, there are the acquired bodies that most creatures in the current cultivation world possess.
According to the theory, the highest level that an acquired body can be cultivated is to the peak of the mortal realm, returning to the void and merging with the Tao.
If you want to go further, you can only go against your nature, which is obviously not an easy thing to do. You either need to have a heaven-defying opportunity and luck, or you need to join a powerful force to practice.
Jia Le made progress step by step. Initially, he only had an acquired physique. It was not until he practiced the Great Sun Divine Form Secret that his physique began to improve.
The Sun God Body improved step by step. When Jia Le reached the minor stage of success, he had already gone against the grain and achieved the innate body. Later, the Sun God Body was completely perfected, reaching the pinnacle of the innate body, almost becoming a god or demon, but there was still something missing.
It can be said that the current state of affairs is entirely due to Jiale’s hard work.
However, it is easy to go against one's innate nature, but it is not so easy to achieve the innate body of gods and demons. Those innate gods and demons are mostly created by the origin of the world, and are possessed by the first batch of creatures born from innate nature. Jiale has always been planning to achieve such a physique, but it is extremely difficult.
Fortunately, after Jiale refined the Moon and the Sun in the Journey to the West world, he seemed to have gained some inspiration.
After refining the Lunar Star and the Sun Star, Jiale clearly felt that his physique had undergone a qualitative improvement. However, the Journey to the West world was, after all, only a middle thousand world. The origin of the world was limited, and the origin of the Lunar Star and the Sun Star was even more limited. It was not enough to bring about a qualitative change in Jiale's physique.
However, today’s world of Fengshen is different.
This is a vast world. The origin of the Moon and the Sun is sufficient. Perhaps after refining, Jiale's physique can be further improved and enter the category of innate body of gods and demons. The only thing to worry about is that the Moon and the Sun in the world of Fengshen are not ownerless, and they are not small characters either. It may not be so easy to take them down.
But I'm afraid there will be some conflicts below. If the strength is insufficient, it will not be good in the end.
It's difficult, but you still have to give it a try.
The figure disappeared, and the next moment, he appeared on the Sun Star.
The one who now occupies the Sun Star is Emperor Jun's son, Taoist Lu Ya, the Little Golden Crow. With the help of the demon clan's luck and the fate of the sun, Taoist Lu Ya has now reached the quasi-saint realm. Moreover, he is not just an ordinary early quasi-saint. I'm afraid he is not much different from a middle quasi-saint.
Moreover, he has a deadly weapon in his hand: the Flying Knife that Beheads Immortals, which is very magical. Coupled with the background of the demon clan and the home advantage, this fight is really difficult. However, he has to fight even though it is difficult. Who made him set his eyes on the Sun Star, and Taoist Lu Ya is unwilling to move.
Standing on the Sun Star and feeling the restrictions of the Sun Star, Jiale ignored it and went straight in.
Feeling Jiale's aura, even the Sun Star became more active. It was obvious that it had some familiarity with Jiale. After all, Jiale had refined the Sun Star, and he had a lot of Sun Star essence in him. This feeling of sharing the same origin was bound to attract the Sun Star.
"Eh, not home?"
After entering the Sun Star, Jia Le swept his spiritual sense around and found that there was no one on the Sun Star at all. Taoist Lu Ya had actually left the Sun Star. Although he didn't know where he went, Lu Ya was not at home. Jia Le was delighted. This was originally Taoist Lu Ya's home court. Jia Le had already prepared for a big battle as soon as he entered the Sun Star, but now he felt relieved. It was not certain whose home court it was.
It slowly fell down. It had to be said that the sun star in the Fengshen world was not comparable to the sun star in the Journey to the West world.
The majestic Sun Star Palace, the rich sun essence, the scorching sun fire, the sun star materials that can be seen everywhere, and so on, but the most important thing is the fiery red ancient tree standing on the Sun Star.
Hibiscus tree!
That’s right, it’s the hibiscus tree.
Moreover, it is much stronger than the Fusang Tree in the world of Journey to the West. If it can be refined, it will probably be of great benefit to his physique.
Thinking of this, Jiale couldn't help but licking his lips.
However, the hibiscus tree opposite shook its branches uneasily.
It is difficult for innate spiritual roots to generate intelligence, and even more difficult to transform into a human form. In terms of aptitude, the aptitude of innate spiritual roots are all top-notch, especially the top ten innate spiritual roots, which are no less than those top gods and demons. However, among the top ten innate spiritual roots, only a few can transform into a human form. Unable to seize the opportunity at the time of the creation of the world, it is almost a fantasy for these innate spiritual roots to generate intelligence and transform into a human form.
Just like the hibiscus tree in front of us, it may have some instincts, but in terms of intelligence, it is not even as good as those ordinary century-old trees.
It is hard to tell whether it is good or bad when you gain or lose something.
He shook his head and attacked with the Four Zhu Xian Swords directly, falling towards the four corners of the Sun Star. The aura of killing lingered around the Sun Star. If Taoist Lu Ya came back again, he would definitely be very surprised.
There was no rush to refine the Sun Star. This Sun Star had been marked by Taoist Lu Ya. If he started to refine it, Taoist Lu Ya would notice it and kill him directly.
His eyes fell on the Fusang tree. Perhaps he could increase his strength before fighting with Taoist Lu Ya.
Refining the hibiscus tree will be of great benefit to Jiale's practice.
Sitting cross-legged under the Fusang tree, his Yuanshen covered the Fusang tree. The already uneasy Fusang tree began to get even more anxious. Unfortunately, everything was in vain. The Fusang tree had no intelligence. Even if it had some abilities and could even kill most of the Daluo Jinxian, it was just a dream to resist Jiale.
Once is new, twice is mature, Jiale has experience in refining the hibiscus tree.
In the soul, there are two tree shadows, one yin and one yang. They are the hibiscus tree and the laurel tree refined in the world of Journey to the West. They are attracted to each other, and the essence of the hibiscus tree begins to flow towards the hibiscus tree in the soul. The sun origin in the soul begins to strengthen step by step, and soon Jiale falls into a state of enlightenment.
He had already reached 30% of the Yin-Yang Dao, and now he began to move forward.
Hunyuan Jinxian is still comprehending the Great Dao. With 40% of the Dao, he can break through to the middle stage of Hunyuan Jinxian, 70% of the Dao can break through to the late stage of Hunyuan Jinxian, and 100% of the Dao can make him a perfect Hunyuan Jinxian. Now Jiale is actually not far from the middle stage of Hunyuan Jinxian.
As the solar essence of the hibiscus tree flowed into Jiale's soul, the Yin-Yang principle began to improve step by step as time passed.
31%, 32%...
Perhaps Jiale had underestimated the power and heritage of this one of the top ten innate spiritual roots.
Western sacred mountain.
Taoist Lu Ya was listening to the teachings of Jie Yin and Zhunti. This time, Taoist Lu Ya came here to talk to Jie Yin and Zhunti about the revival of the demon race.
Taoist Lu Ya knew that the world at this time was already a world of saints.
If he wants to restore the glory of the demon race, he can only rely on the power of the saint.
Among the six saints, the Three Pure Ones all founded their religions with humans as the main focus. It is impossible for them to allow the demon race to replace the human race and to stand tall between heaven and earth again. It is possible for Nuwa, but one Nuwa is not enough. If they can get the support of Jie Yin and Zhunti, that would be enough.
At least at the saint level, no one will influence him. In this way, the revival of the demon race will no longer be an empty talk.
Jie Yin and Zhunti also agreed to Taoist Lu Ya. Buddhism is different from the three religions. Buddhism is not based on the human race, but on all spirits between heaven and earth. Anyone who believes in Buddhism can become a Buddha. It makes no difference whether the one who dominates the world is the human race or the demon race. However, Jie Yin and Zhunti does not think highly of Taoist Lu Ya and even thinks that he is just dreaming.
Going against the trend, if there was no need for a sun in this world, Taoist Lu Ya would not be able to live for long even with the protection of the demon clan's luck.
However, whether it can succeed or not is not important. What is important is that Taoist Lu Ya is indeed useful.
In this case, why not agree? You must agree. No matter what happens later, you should make use of it first. The demon clan has a deep foundation. Even though it has withdrawn from the stage of history, it is not inferior to Buddhism in some aspects. If you can get some of it, it will be of great benefit to Buddhism.
So, the man is in love and the woman is willing, so the matter is settled.
Even Jie Yin Zhunti gave Taoist Lu Ya a Buddha fruit, but at Lu Ya's request, it was not made public. However, Lu Ya could use this Buddha fruit and borrow the luck of Buddhism, which could increase his strength when necessary. Combined with the luck of the demon clan and the luck of the Sun Star, it was only a matter of time for Taoist Lu Ya to break through to the middle stage of quasi-saint.
He was already only one step away from the middle stage of Quasi-Saint, and now with the support of Buddhism, perhaps a breakthrough would be just around the corner.
Moreover, even though he has not yet broken through to the middle stage of quasi-saint, but with various blessings, Taoist Lu Ya's combat power is not weaker than that of a mid-stage quasi-saint. Jie Yin Zhunti is also willing to give Taoist Lu Ya a chance to let him listen to the teachings, which will provide another boost for his breakthrough.
But when Lu Ya was listening to the teachings, he suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart, as if a crisis was approaching, or as if something very important to him was leaving him.
I just wanted to calculate, but I got nothing. When the catastrophe came, the secrets of heaven were not revealed, and the other party was obviously not an easy person, so it was obvious that I could not make predictions.
Jie Yin Zhunti also noticed the strange behavior of Taoist Lu Ya.
Looking at the calamity energy gathering on Taoist Lu Ya, he couldn't help but frown. He couldn't let the person he had just won over suffer the calamity, right?
