I use my supernatural powers to prove my immortality

A desolate place at the edge of the world.

A mysterious hall where a Taoist master is holding a meeting somewhere.

The Shadow Master's face changed drastically, and he said, "You all felt it, right? Just now that person was startled again. It seems that the Heavenly Dao did something that made it very afraid!"

Inside the main hall, the expressions of many Dao masters all became extremely solemn.

Just at that moment, did the Heavenly Dao do something that gave "it" a strong stimulation?
If that person really wakes up, then their era may immediately face the crisis of ending and conclusion.

Thinking back to the six Taoist masters who had a very powerful incarnation of "I" appear on their bodies at the same time, how could everyone guess who had triggered the changes in the Heavenly Dao?

As one of the only three human demons left behind, he was now somewhat impatient.

He asked directly, "Friend Bai, can you tell me what Young Master Zhong of your sect has done?"

As soon as the human demon finished speaking, the eyes of the many Taoist masters at the scene all fell on Bai Tingyuan.

Bai Tingyuan naturally knew what Zhong Lixiao had done, but how could he answer truthfully?

Besides, the owner of the movie is still here!

What if he really is that person's pawn?
Bai Tingyuan said bluntly, "Like all of you fellow Taoists, I have been in this desolate place for quite some time. Who knows how much time has passed in the land of Shenzhou?"

The Kitchen God said directly, "According to my experience, at least twenty to thirty years have passed in China during the time we have been meeting."

Twenty to thirty years.
For cultivators at their level, does this amount of time count?

Even a nap wouldn't be enough.

but.

If this period of time were placed on Zhong Lixiao, the feeling might be completely different.

Shadow Master Song Yue said calmly, "Twenty years is enough time for my junior brother to build a spiritual realm from scratch."

The human demon, the holy master, and other Taoist masters all looked at Bai Tingyuan.

The Saint Master is still easy to deal with. He is from Haizhou. Although he had a brief confrontation with Zhong Lixiao and even lost his natal magic weapon, the ruler, he still has limited understanding of Zhong Lixiao.

but.

For the Human Demon, the Shadow Lord, and several other Taoist Lords who had made their moves one after another, this piece of information had a considerable impact.

The Lord of Amrita was thoughtful.

Among so many people present, if we were to ask who knows Zhong Lixiao best, it would definitely be her.

When she first made her move on Zhong Lixiao, Zhong Lixiao was still just a young cultivator in the Jindan stage.

But in terms of combat capability, he is not much inferior to Yuanying Zhenjun.

Could it be.
Lord Ganlu suddenly thought of something, his heart trembled for a moment, and then a little inexplicable hope ignited in his heart.

If her guess is true, then at the end of their era, Zhong Lixiao might really be the crucial chess piece.

Bai Tingyuan directly challenged, "Master, is it fun to keep acting with a clown mask on? Wasn't Song Yue already thrown into the underworld? I suggest that you don't try to get close to my Baiyun Temple in the future."

“Your way of deceiving the heavens is indeed powerful, but that is at the level of transformation into a spirit. Now we are all Dao masters. Even if your Dao is mysterious, it is only one of the ten thousand Daos in the world!”

Bai Tingyuan did not lie.

If you look at things from different heights, the scenery you see will be completely different.

Before he attained enlightenment, he had no idea of the Shadow Master's methods.

One is that the Shadow Master was very secretive and never revealed too many of his methods in front of these gods.

The second is that Shadow Master has indeed gone far in the path of supernatural powers, and is almost within reach of pushing open the door to the avenue, which is only one step away.

So, to a certain extent, the reason why the Shadow Master was able to deceive him at the beginning was that his methods were indeed more sophisticated.

but.

The way to deceive God is essentially like a magic trick.

Only when it is not exposed does it have the most mystery and charm.

Just like sin, it can only dance under the cover of darkness.

Once it's exposed, maybe that's all it is.

In addition, once everyone knew the Shadow Lord's temper, their defenses against him naturally reached the highest level.

Even if I just saw his face, I would immediately think of betrayal and deception.

With such a premise, how could the world believe him again?

The Shadow Master said sadly, "The Ancestor is still too ruthless. No matter what we do, it is essentially to prove the Dao. Now that the Dao has been achieved, why should we be so childish?"

Bai Tingyuan did not react at all when he heard this and completely ignored the existence of the Shadow Master.

Upon seeing this, the film owner immediately became even more sad.

When the other Taoist masters saw this, their expressions were extremely interesting.

This movie owner is really addicted to acting and is performing every moment.

Seeing this, everyone became even more wary of the Shadow Master!
Seeing this, the Kitchen God said directly, "Let's end this meeting here. I hope everyone will fulfill their duties after returning, and try to reduce the pressure on the Heavenly Dao as much as possible, so that 'that person' can wake up as late as possible."

"In addition, I suggest that the nine of us create another formation together, and discuss the results at our next meeting!"

After hearing this, many Dao Lords stopped talking and left this desolate place on the edge of the world, each with their own thoughts.

Almost everyone was thinking about what Zhong Lixiao had done not long ago.
The man was so stimulated that he actually showed signs of waking up again.

Even though they had achieved enlightenment for the sake of being the Tao Master, they still felt indescribable sadness in their hearts.

How could this era be so short?
Even if they wanted to help the world, they simply didn't have much time to grow. How cruel? How cruel?
It is precisely for this reason that the three Taoist masters, the Human Demon, the Saint Master, and the Shadow Lord, are even more eager to make a move on Zhong Lixiao.

Baiyun Temple.

Floating cloud fairy mountain.

Zhong Lixiao naturally didn't know about the conspiracy of many Dao Lords in the desolate place at the edge of the world.

However, even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care too much about what happened.

Before he achieved the breakthrough to the Spiritual Transformation stage, Zhong Lixiao always thought that as long as he achieved the breakthrough to the Spiritual Transformation stage, he would be able to enjoy a long period of peace and tranquility.

It allows him to stop briefly and slowly climb the path.

but.

After truly breaking through to the Spiritual Transformation stage, it seemed as if someone was holding a whip from behind and urging him to continue striding forward.

There were so many things he wanted to do that he felt time was becoming increasingly tight and insufficient.

After breaking through the God Transformation realm and spending a certain amount of time to adapt to the various aspects of the God Transformation realm, Zhong Lixiao planned to repair the Tongtian Lingbao ruler he got from his sage master, Mr. Meng.

Zhong Lixiao was quite interested in this broken ruler.

At the beginning, it was with this ruler that old scholar Meng used to measure people, their hearts and the distance, and even forced him, who understood the way of space, to feel as if there was no way to heaven or door to earth.

What's more, the old scholar Meng has successfully achieved enlightenment.

Studying the Confucian and Taoist order in this rule is essentially studying the Tao of Meng Lao.

For Zhong Lixiao, the Tao of any Taoist master is extremely valuable.

In particular, the Confucian and Taoist order is very consistent with the "humanity" in the Three Talents. If he can study it thoroughly, he may be able to master the power of the Three Talents on a larger scale.

And this is also one of the directions that Zhong Lixiao has planned!

In fact, it has been proven that Confucianism and Taoism are indeed very unique compared to Buddhism and Taoism.

Taoism emphasizes following nature and governing by inaction, and emphasizes personal freedom and ease in spiritual practice.
Buddhism emphasizes that all living beings suffer, and the purpose of spiritual practice is to eliminate worries, eliminate karma, transcend worldly suffering, and achieve spiritual purification and peace.

However, Confucianism has a strong idea of making great achievements and establishing a career, believing that virtue, words and achievements are the three immortal things.

To put it simply, Confucianism pays more attention to personal cultivation, pursuing achievements and becoming a king as good as Yao and Shun.

When it comes to spiritual practice, it is particularly emphasized that "man can conquer nature."

It is even possible to discipline mountains, rivers, and even gods through Confucian and Taoist order, making them more in line with the needs of human social development.

In short, in the Haizhou cultivation world, this "King" is more like the Haizhou Heavenly Dao itself.

No one can wantonly destroy the Confucian and Taoist order of Haizhou, not even the Heavenly Dao of Haizhou.

Whenever the Heavenly Dao of Haizhou showed signs of a "tyrannical ruler," Confucianists would immediately leap forth to "risk their lives to remonstrate." Such was the power of social discipline: even the Heavenly Dao had a "moral order" in place.

Even if the "Way of Heaven" is tyrannical, that is not allowed.
I have to say, this is quite magical!

You have to know that in the Taoist school of Shenzhou, the core concept of the Way of Heaven is "Heaven and Earth are not benevolent and treat all things as straw dogs."

The way of heaven is impartial and treats all living beings equally.

From this we can also see that the ideological and spiritual state of those Confucian practitioners in Haizhou is indeed awesome.

But, again, it’s easier said than done.

It is too easy to become boastful when slogans are shouted loudly.

It's the same subject, and the upper and lower limits are equally outrageous.

However, now that old scholar Meng has successfully attained the status of a holy master, he has indeed brought Haizhou Confucianism and Taoism to the height of the glorious Dharma.

I believe that in the future, not only in Haizhou, but also in the land of China, and even in the Buddhist base camp in the far west, there may be monks who begin to study Confucianism and Taoism.

On the contrary, Buddhism is likely to decline. Who can blame it for the fact that there is no Buddha in Buddhism in this era?
After studying the ruler for a period of time, Zhong Lixiao indeed gained a lot.

It’s a pity that Zhong Lixiao had no choice but to put the matter of repairing the ruler on hold for the time being.

Firstly, he did not have a very deep understanding of Haizhou's Confucianism and Taoism.

Even if one gains some understanding with the help of this broken ruler, it will be rather superficial.

Secondly, this ruler is not his life-saving magic weapon, and it is impossible to cultivate and repair it in his soul.

The moment the ruler broke, the spirit of Tongtian Lingbao also suffered irreversible damage.

Even if Zhong Lixiao wanted to repair it, it would be difficult to find a suitable entry point.

Perhaps the biggest gain from this ordeal was that it broadened his horizons.

I have a deeper understanding of Haizhou Confucianism and Taoism!

After putting the work of repairing the ruler on hold, Zhong Lixiao studied the Hongmeng Da Dao Dan for a while.

I have some ideas, but none of them have been verified.

Even if you have a magical gourd of elixir, it will be difficult to produce results in a short time without sufficient understanding of the medicinal properties of the elixir.

Thinking of this, Zhong Lixiao had no choice but to come out for the time being.

Zhong Lixiao casually cast a spell, and the protective formation that had been in operation for nearly forty or fifty years was activated.

Shhhhhh.

As soon as the cave portal opened, several talismans were activated and floated in front of him.

Seeing these tokens, Zhong Lixiao's eyes suddenly lit up with a knowing smile.

Among them, there are many talismans, which are the styles that the third disciple Hu Xiaolu likes to use.

The image of a cute tiger cub looks fierce and adorable.

This made him subconsciously recall the time when he was in seclusion refining the Spirit Realm Tower. Hu Xiaolu had been guarding outside the cave like this, constantly using this type of tiger-head talisman to pass on information from the outside world to him.

But I never expected that as soon as I came out of seclusion this time, I would receive the familiar message.

With a sweep of his spiritual sense, Hu Xiaolu's voice immediately sounded from one of the tokens.

"Master, you have been in seclusion for ten years. During these ten years, the world has been peaceful and developed very well, especially the spiritual realm, which now basically covers the entire area under the jurisdiction of Baiyun Temple."

"The response to the Spirit Realm has been very, very good. Now all factions in the world are eagerly seeking cooperation in this area. The prices of various natural materials and treasures that can be used to refine the Spirit Realm are now going crazy."

"Every faction hopes to build a spiritual realm system in their own sect as quickly as possible. Some even use their connections to come to me for help."

It turns out that the first token introduced information about the deployment of the spiritual realm?
This is indeed a good thing!
Apart from anything else, just the huge fortune of establishing the spiritual realm will definitely give him a share.

If placed in the Confucian system, this would definitely be an immortal achievement!

That would have a more earth-shaking impact than controlling floods, building bridges, or paving roads.

In addition, the complete completion of the spiritual realm will be more helpful for him to perform illusions.

You can understand this by referring to the battle in which Patriarch Bai attained enlightenment!
As long as he had refined the talisman he had made in advance and was under the cover of the spiritual illusion, even if he died, he had a certain chance of reversing it and turning it into a false illusion.

If the spiritual realm really covered the whole world, then he might really be able to create the largest and most extensive illusion in history.

Afterwards, Zhong Lixiao opened the second token.

This one was actually made by the eldest disciple Xue Jingliang.

"Master, the affairs of the Chu State in the mortal world have come to an end. Although the royal family has not changed, it already has the aura of a founding nation."

"From my perspective, the 'baby boom' you mentioned will come soon, and Da Chu will soon usher in a new round of prosperity. I have returned to Floating Cloud Fairy Mountain with peace of mind and have completely calmed down to practice."

"This is the 'Zhou Tian Xing Dou Zhu Xian Formation' that I created based on my experience and lessons. Master, please correct me."

When Zhong Lixiao saw the formation created by Xue Jingliang, his eyes suddenly lit up.

This formation is worthy of being derived from a military formation, and has an extremely strong military characteristic.

It does not emphasize personal bravery, or even deliberately smoothing out personal traits, but emphasizes enforcing orders.

The formation is based on the Tiangang and Disha basic structure, which coincides with the positions of the stars in the sky.

The thirty-six constellations of Tiangang are guarded by foundation-building monks and correspond to the seven stars of the Big Dipper.

The 72 Earthly Evil constellations can be occupied by Qigong monks, which correspond to the evil stars of the zodiac. The center of the formation needs to be controlled by a Jindan monk holding the "Hunyuan Xingdou Plate".

Under overall manipulation, the overall combat effectiveness can be greatly improved.

Even when facing an attack from a Nascent Soul cultivator, he can fight against him in a short period of time.

The most important thing is that the foundation-building cultivators at the Tiangang star position can be replaced by Jindan cultivators, and the Qi-cultivating cultivators at the Disha star position can be replaced by foundation-building cultivators.

The Jindan cultivator at the center of the formation can also be replaced by a Yuanying cultivator.

If they are paired with the Jinfeng Camp, Qingteng Guards, Xuanshui Tribe, Yanyu Cavalry, and Mountain Envoys, and assisted by a large number of standard magic weapons such as the Broken Army Sword, the Dragon Binding Rope, the Dinghai Pearl, the Suzaku Flag, and the Mountain-Suppressing Seal, they will be able to move mountains and wade through water.

After the formation is activated, all the cultivators in the formation become one, and can completely go against the flow to defeat the immortals.

When Zhong Lixiao saw the killing army formation that his eldest disciple Xue Jingliang had spent so much effort to research, his eyes suddenly brightened.

Xue Jingliang's formation is really good!
As expected, one still needs to practice on real things. For example, even if he were to create this kind of military killing formation, he might not be able to do better than Xue Jingliang at the same level.

The disciple does not have to be inferior to the teacher, and the teacher does not have to be better than the disciple.

Zhong Lixiao's attainments in military formations and ranks were indeed not as good as Xue Jingliang's, and there was nothing wrong with admitting that.

After a brief study and confirming that there were no obvious loopholes, he directly handed the token to King Wucheng for further study.

When King Wucheng got it, he immediately felt like he had gained a treasure.

With the rapid progress of his lord's cultivation, he was indeed unable to keep up with his lord's pace.

But if he could get such a military formation, he might be able to use it again at a critical moment.

Afterwards, Zhong Lixiao's spiritual sense swept over the other talismans again.

Several of them were sent by my second disciple Ning Yunzhi, and they read:

"Master, this is the latest achievement of my disciple and other learned people after we compiled and sorted out all the natural treasures in the world."

"The Spirit Realm helped a lot. One of the things we helped with was some materials that are currently unique to the Spirit Realm. I wonder if they can be of any help to you."

After reading a letter token, he saw Ning Yunzhi continuing to deliver a message.

"Master, I've recently been communicating with several Yuanying Zhenjuns from Haizhou and discovered that Haizhou has many natural treasures that are not available in Shenzhou."

"The following is a summary of the patterns and characteristics of these natural treasures. I hope this will be helpful to you, Master."

Then came the third token, the content of this one was somewhat different.

"Master, Senior Brother Chi Ye and Senior Sister Mei Gu got married and gave birth to a daughter named Yu Die. Yu Die is very pretty and cute, but she is unlucky and has contracted a strange disease. The disciples and the supreme elders of the sect have all seen her, but they are helpless."

When Zhong Lixiao saw the token, he was immediately surprised.

Chi Ye and Mei Gu Nu, they were both his senior and junior classmates from the same class as him, but he never thought that they would get married without any notice and even have a daughter.

But what is this strange disease? (End of this chapter)
