Chapter 348 Heaven's Killing Intent! Are Daoist Couples Growing Apart?

"Since the master is willing to trust Xiao Huan, Xiao Huan is naturally willing to serve him."

I just want to kill Wang Yulou; he's a huge threat.

They grow quickly, have high talent, and are always able to grasp the changes in the competition.

I'm worried that if he continues to grow stronger, it will affect the overall situation of your final confrontation.

Jade Palace Immortal was unaware that he had already been added to Huanpei's death list.

"The final confrontation may not happen. The current situation is stuck. I don't want to move forward, and neither do they."

Wang Yulou is indeed someone you can kill now. Make your move; seize the opportunity.

Previously, the Wuji Dao Master had always harbored the expectation of making Wang Yulou his lackey again.

It wasn't that the almost arrogant old Deng liked to fantasize; it was simply that Wang Yulou was valuable enough.

Moreover, the Wuji Dao Lord did not expect Wang Yulou to be loyal to him. He thought that he might be able to use the situation that Wang Yulou had stirred up to help his own goals.

pity.

When the Wuji Dao Master learned that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable didn't even put Bifang in his eyes, he realized that this person had already developed a top-tier mentality.

A powerful talent, an extremely fast training speed, and victory after victory.

There's no need to keep such an enemy around.

"Master, what is your current condition? In the myriad realms, other top-tier Golden Core cultivators are rapidly expanding their influence by sending their subordinates."

Our disciples from the Outer Heavens are gradually retreating, and I am even losing within the Four Spirit Realms.

The situation is getting worse. I'm worried about what might happen.

Huanpei was interrupted by the Daoist Master Wuji before she could finish speaking.

"If you don't understand it, don't worry about it. What's the big deal about losing one after another?"

Those fools in the world sent out their disciples, thinking they had everything under their control.

But even the demons under my command can betray me, let alone them?

Wang Yulou, betrayal, Hundred Hands, betrayal—these are just examples you've seen.

There is so much more that you can't see.

These are the truly good things for me.

The perspective of the Wuji Dao Master is quite outrageous. The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is losing, losing, losing to the point that the overall situation he is involved in may collapse, so he receives support and assistance from his allies.

The Wuji Dao Master was different; this guy never thought he had lost.

The process of sending subordinates to explore endless realms is very enjoyable.

Those top-tier Golden Core cultivators easily gained enormous benefits through the efforts of their subordinates.

But everything comes at a price. If the interests of subordinates extend too far outward, the old men's control over them will be greatly reduced.

The situation is actually developing and moving towards a more dynamic stage.

Judging from the current situation, it seems that the Wuji Dao Master is about to lose.

But the Lord of Wuji knew that he was closer than ever before to victory.
The human heart is like a tide, but what is the heart of a seeker of the Way like?

The Dao Lord of Wuji clearly had his own answer, so he was happy to see the great cultivators of the Great World constantly sending people out.

"But Master, even if we protect the Four Spirit Realms, what about the other worlds?"

"They're all just vineyards."

Large vineyards, small vineyards, wild grapes—the difference is that small.

Large vineyards have guard dogs, but small vineyards can't afford them. Wild grapes are scattered, making them inefficient to harvest.

So, I need enough small vineyards. Do you understand now?

Those idiots in this world love to play staring contests with me, so I'll play along.

Heaven has unleashed its murderous intent.

Wang Yulou?
Stop stalling, just kill them!

Other subordinates sent by top-tier Golden Core cultivators?

Wait for the opportunity, then kill them directly!

The many worlds that bear countless lives are, in the eyes of the Boundless Dao Lord, nothing more than vineyards.

And it is that old beast that eats grapes.

We're waiting, waiting for the grapes to grow bigger and bigger.

"I see, I see. So you actually foresaw that the top Golden Core cultivators of the Great Heaven and Earth would send people to support Wang Yulou?" Huanpei continued to ask.

She is a direct descendant of the Wuji Dao Master, so there's nothing for her to hide; ask her anything.

"No, I can't guess any of that. Let them do whatever they want; the outcome will be the same few things."

Xiao Huan, always remember, don't be fooled by your opponent's rhythm.

Whether things outside the great universe are important or not does not directly depend on the will of the majority, but only on reality.

These confrontations are important, but they are unwilling to share the benefits with more people, only allowing their core disciples to participate.

The results of it?
The hundred hands I created will all betray me.

Even someone like Wang Yulou, who has received the favor of the celestial alliance and the times, wants to go his own way.

Ha, how ridiculous!

The Golden Core cultivators of the Great Heaven and Earth have made a mistake in judging reality.

The Great Dao within the void is obscure and difficult to invoke; the slightest carelessness can lead to death. Therefore, I have an instinct to respect the truth.

Golden Core cultivators nurtured within the vast天地 (Heaven and Earth) lack this instinct.

The Wuji Dao Master recalled the scene where the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable called a deer a horse at the winnowing basket gathering.

The great cultivators of the Great Heaven and Earth are too outrageous. When they become so outrageous that they get used to defining what is true and what is false.

But some things are either true or false.

"That's why those idiots have completely different expectations from mine."

I had originally intended to have a proper battle with them outside the void, but now it seems unnecessary.
In short, kill Wang Yulou and obtain the Four Spirit Realms—the Four Spirit Realms are not important, what is important is killing Wang Yulou.

I don't want to see him cause any more trouble. Regardless of the reason, he always brings so much change; he has to be killed!

When the changes created by the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable are not significant, he cannot sit at the table.

When he creates changes significant enough, he can influence the existing order and become a target of attention.

It's a double-edged sword, but that's also a side of cultivating immortality.
-
The Great Heaven and Earth, the Immortal Alliance, the Eastern Extreme Sect.

In the main hall of the temple, the image of the Water Immortal trembled slightly and then came to life.

Bai Li glanced inexplicably at the south and then delivered the imperial decree.

'All cultivators of the Eastern Pole Sect at the Purple Mansion level, return to the sect immediately.'

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable needs support in the Four Spirit Realms, but the question is who exactly will provide that support.

Wang Yulou's idea was simple: it would be best to recruit a group from the Eastern Pole Sect.

His base in the Four Spirit Realms, the Pure Water Dao Court, is quite prosperous, but the problem is, he is not alone.

Within this vast universe, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable also possesses a considerable estate.
You can't just move to a new home and forget about your old one.

After careful sifting and sifting, we can still find a lot of good materials in the old nest. Throw them into the Four Spirit Realms for some training, and we'll have another batch of new Golden Cores.

In reality, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's actions had nothing to do with the outcome of the Four Spirit Realms; they were simply for his own future needs in the struggle.

He didn't want to be alone; he needed more leverage.

There are many complex reasons why the Great Heaven and Earth Golden Core cultivators are restricted from expanding their resources. One of the core reasons is that the Great Heaven and Earth have limited resources, and their expansion is severely restricted.

The Four Spirit Realms are different; there's still plenty of space to expand and claim territory.

Moreover, and more importantly, the Four Spirit Realms cannot consume all of it in a short period of time.

The Golden Cores cultivated by Jade Palace Immortal Venerable in the Four Spirit Realms can also be used, but by gathering more Golden Cores from the Great Heaven and Earth, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable can better maintain his control over the power after leaving the Four Spirit Realms.

Having fought so many old men, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable naturally wanted to avoid being verbally abused.

After years of cultivation, Xiaoyu is about to break through to the Golden Immortal level.

This process is actually quite fast.

The distinction between Golden Immortals and Celestial Immortals lies in their breakthrough of the limits of the existing system, achieving the ultimate evolution of their self-cultivation system based on accumulation, and transcending the ceiling of the times on their own path.

However, surpassing the limitations of one's time is always very difficult.

On the other hand, because her power was developing well, her Dharma form was gradually improved.

If we use the characteristics of computers to distinguish the differences between the Golden Elixir Methods, then the Boundless Method does not update the hardware but vigorously improves efficiency and performance in algorithms, software, and code.

The Dharma Aspect Method is a distributed server that expands server capacity. Wherever the server is placed, a Golden Core cultivator can roam freely there.

The Divine Illumination Method is a single super server or supercomputer with maximized hardware performance and customized software performance.

The Nascent Soul Method uses big data (accumulated knowledge in cultivation) as its basic material, and performs AI calculations on high-tech hardware (Nascent Soul Dao Embryo) (using the Dao Embryo to achieve the superego), constructing a perfection that transcends the ego.

With the blessing of the Dharma Image Method, Bai Li is similar to a super administrator of a server group, sending notifications to every server user who helps him practice the Dharma Image Method.

Therefore, once her decree was issued, all the Purple Mansion cultivators of the Eastern Pole Sect who had assisted her in cultivating the Dharma Form were able to receive it very quickly. "Master."

"Ancestor"

"Ancestor"

Everyone here is old. Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is 1,500 years old. Most of the people he met in his youth have now passed away.

Looking throughout the Eastern Pole Sect, there were hardly any old acquaintances of the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

Bai Li glanced briefly at the crowd and said.

"There's an opportunity to attain the Golden Core stage, but it's somewhat dangerous. Is anyone interested?"

The group exchanged bewildered glances, some even doubting whether they had misheard.

If there's an opportunity to attain the Golden Elixir of Enlightenment, and you ask us if we're interested, how dangerous would that be?
“Ancestor, what is the danger?” a cultivator asked.

But there are always people who lack martial ethics; they don't ask any questions.

Regardless of danger, let's get the opportunity first.

"Ancestor, for the sect, for the ancestor, Bai Bu is not afraid of danger, and will not hesitate to die ten thousand times!"

Cui Baihao jumped out immediately, but Bai Li frowned slightly.

The man surnamed Cui is not an idiot; Cui Baihao's behavior is actually that of a scoundrel.

If there is real danger, Cui Baihao can rely on the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable as his backer and not rush forward.

Anyway, it's confirmed that Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is not dead; this has been confirmed by many people within the Five Realms Heavenly Gathering.

Cui Baihao is a direct descendant of the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable. Since he took the initiative to step forward, Bai Li really didn't have a good solution.

We can't just kill Old Cui, can we?
"You can't go. Fellow Daoist Yuque specifically asked you not to go." Bai Li used Wang Yulou as an excuse, since Old Cui was indeed Wang Yulou's subordinate.

"Alright, I'll get straight to the point. This time, it was Fellow Daoist Yuque who summoned me."

Moreover, there isn't just one opportunity to obtain the Golden Elixir, there are many.

As for Xiao Lu, Bai Hao, and Jian Jia, you shouldn't get involved. When Fellow Daoist Yu Que returns, opportunities will naturally arise.

Although we are a real couple, I still call you fellow Daoist.

Bai Li understands her persona; she can't laugh too much at the little Dengs below, otherwise it'll be troublesome when it comes time to cut her losses.

But the ones who had the hardest time to maintain composure were actually Cui Baihao and Jing Jianjia, among others.

Because we are the direct descendants of the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, we have no chance?
Is there any reason?
Is there any royal law?
However, with the Water Immortal in front of them, they dared not say much, behaving as obediently as a flock of quails shivering in the cold wind.

Soon, Di Shui selected seven Purple Mansion cultivators, of whom only half were actually under Wang Yulou's command.

Qin Churan, born in Drip Water Heaven and cultivating by Wang Yulou's side
The remaining six were basically the same; their stance within the Eastern Pole Sect was inclined towards the Water Immortal Venerable.

"Your task is to obey him and cultivate to the Golden Core realm as soon as possible."

As for you, Chu Ran, once you reach the peak of the Purple Mansion realm, you will be able to reconstruct your Dao body with his help, and you will no longer be restricted from achieving Dao through the Cave Heaven.

Go ahead, you have two days to prepare.

Then, head to the Bull Demon's Gathering; the Eastern Immortal Venerable will take you to him.

Bai Li's expression was calm as still water, but in fact, she completely altered the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's demands at the Basket Gathering.

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable wanted her own subordinates, so she sent seven of them.

However, the seven dared not say anything more. Qin Churan's eyes were filled with intense fear, but all she could do was be afraid.

Getting involved in the family conflicts of a Golden Core Immortal Venerable is practically suicide.

In their minds, it was a dangerous opportunity; seven people combined meant a high probability of death for six, and possibly all of them.

Thinking of the mysteriously vanished Jade Palace Immortal Venerable
If someone with a vivid imagination came here, they might have already figured out that it's all a scam.

However, after everyone left, when Bai Li was alone in the dojo again, a trace of worry appeared in her eyes.

Confrontation, confrontation, confrontation is a stance.

An attitude put on for outsiders.

I'm certain this is necessary.

If Wang Yulou is doing well in that legendary outer world, then his equally successful foundation within the greater world will be all the more remarkable.

You can strive, you can be very capable, but you can't appear to be that capable or that lucky.

The mystery of how winning can turn into losing, and losing into winning, lies in the difference between the actual upper limit and the expected upper limit that the parties involved can bear.

If the actual upper limit exceeds the expected upper limit, you will win too much and then be suppressed and lose.

If the actual upper limit is weaker than the expected upper limit, there will be a relative loss, but due to the existence of a consensus on expectations, there will be some support, thus bringing the situation closer to winning again.

This follows the same core principle as when Jade Palace Immortal Venerable presided over the Immortal Alliance Reform, where his expected gains were necessarily below the increase from the reform.

In fact, from the cold, stern judgment of the dripping water, one can see that she is indeed close to reaching the Golden Immortal realm.

Her level of understanding is rapidly approaching the top-tier Golden Core level due to her increased strength.

What level?
The Wuji Dao Master ordered Huanpei to kill Wang Yulou directly!

Regardless of this or that, if the returns you bring me are insufficient or even detrimental to my expected returns, then you deserve to die.

I didn't want to kill you before simply because things weren't certain yet. Now that the situation is clear, you can die.

That's it.

The enmity of being blocked from the path—at least that's how the Wuji Dao Master sees it.

Different top-tier Golden Core cultivators have completely different attitudes toward the same thing for various reasons.

Because of its immense power, the Water God can often directly determine truth from falsehood, yet truth and falsehood objectively exist. The ambiguity between relative and absolute is a densely populated area of ​​variables in a game.

The different attitudes stem from the influence of game variables.

Upon closer examination, it turns out that different Golden Elixir cultivators have completely different understandings of their own cultivation path and the path to supreme status.

This can be seen from the different organizational models of the top forces in the Great World.

The most typical examples are the Wutian Sect and the Immortal Alliance, one is an extreme form of ignorant selection, and the other is an extreme form of mutual benefit.

As for the development of the situation, Drip also has her own clear understanding—it may not be right, it may not be right for everyone, it may not win, and it may not be able to accurately describe or characterize the situation, but it does have its own absolutely differentiated ideas and behavioral patterns.

One of Drip's ideas was that Wang Yulou had won enough, so why not let him suffer a bit more? Without affecting their profits, they could create a false conflict between the two sides, and Drip would support him.

This is similar to the relationship between Shui Zun and Jin Gu Yuan. However, in the case of the genius couple, the relationship has changed from master and apprentice to husband and wife.

Secondly, Drip Water considered that the waters of the Four Spirit Realms were too deep, and Wang Yulou might not be able to win there indefinitely.

Therefore, even if he asks for help, we cannot send all of his core supporters.

This is actually a kind of gentleness, but in practice it appears particularly 'ruthless'.
-
The Immortal Alliance is supporting Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, and other top forces in the Great World are also making efforts to provide support.

Actually, the main purpose is to get a share of the pie; providing support is just a temporary measure.

The Wutian Sect, the Great Temple of Immortals and Gods.

The divine images of the Immortal Ancestor and the Blue Forbidden Dragon God stood tall.

Before them knelt three Golden Core cultivators from the Wutian Sect.

Compared to the Eastern Pole Sect's hesitant dispatch of only a few Purple Mansion cultivators, the Wutian Sect had a much larger appetite and a much greater foundation.

After all, one is a local power and the other is a top-level power; they are definitely not the same.

"Nian Wuyai, are you confident that you can lead the two of them to conquer a territory for the Holy Sect in the Four Spirit Realms?"

Although Nian Wuyai knew back in the Wuji Palace that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable was no ordinary person.

But when Nian Wuyai learned from the Immortal Ancestor about the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's fantastical journey through the void, he still found it hard to believe.

Wang Yulou not only didn't die, but instead jumped onto the winnowing basket.
Now, I'm going to support Wang Yulou.
“This old ancestor, I’m afraid that if I leave the Great World, I will be killed by the Wuji Dao Lord. My cultivation level is neither high nor low, which is very awkward.”

Nian Wuyai wanted to decline the offer.

He is a man who can play both sides, straddling the fence, existing in both the outer heavens and the 'Bibo Alliance', giving him an advantage in the vast world.

Regardless of who wins, as long as it survives, it will also receive a share of the profits.

For example, the old man with the winnowing basket made his fortune by stealing the relics left behind by the loser in the struggle for supremacy.

If you leave, no matter what the future holds, you won't be able to participate in the wider world.

Therefore, Nian Wuyai did not want to take any risks.

“You don’t need to be afraid, none of you need to be afraid. I have already spoken to the Dao Master of Wuji.”

Nian Wuyai was somewhat horrified and subconsciously wanted to react, but his cultivation level helped him control his instinctive agitation.

Although it sounds like a horror story, at least now we don't have to worry about dying because we've left this world.

Therefore, Nian Wuyai accepted the decree and, along with two fellow disciples with Golden Core cultivation, returned to prepare.

"You really reached an agreement with the Dao Master of Wuji?"

After everyone left, the Blue Forbidden Dragon God asked.

"Nonsense, if I don't lie to him, why would he take the risk?"
The people below are restless and disloyal!

The voice of the Immortal Ancestor grew softer and softer until it finally disappeared completely.

The two of them transformed back into their original forms.
