Chapter 48 The Oldest Man in Kyushu
The Jiuzhou Protective Array was something Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu conceived a long time ago.
The extraterritorial demon came from other worlds, and the location where it appeared was random each time. Although Jiang Li could defeat it easily, he still needed to know about the arrival of the extraterritorial demon and rush to the place where the demon landed.
The time in between was enough for the demons to wreak havoc on a large scale, causing the deaths of millions.
In order to reduce casualties and buy time, the Jiuzhou Protective Array was conceived. In the two people's conception, this array covers Jiuzhou, and it will take a quarter of an hour for the extraterritorial demon to break through the array when it comes here. At this time, Jiang Li receives the information that the demon is attacking, and quickly rushes to the point where the array is broken and kills the demon.
However, there are two difficulties in this formation.
Firstly, it was necessary to maintain this formation all the time, which consumed a huge amount of spiritual energy. Jiang Li summoned the six major sects and nine dynasties and asked them to take turns to provide six fusion-stage cultivators, and the Human Emperor Palace to provide two fusion-stage cultivators, a total of eight people, to continuously transport spiritual energy and maintain the formation.
Although the six major sects and nine dynasties are powerful and are behemoths in Jiuzhou, only the Red Dust Pure Land's protective formation is confident of blocking the extraterritorial demons. Other forces are helpless in the face of the demons. No one wants to be killed by the sudden appearance of the demon, so they agreed to Jiang Li's proposal.
Secondly, this formation is too large. No formation has ever been able to cover all of Kyushu. This is not simply a matter of enlarging the formation. Issues such as terrain, spiritual energy transportation, and transit must also be considered. The design is extremely difficult. Even if a cultivator in the fusion stage were to design it, it would take a lot of effort.
It was for this reason that Bai Hongtu started designing after he broke through the Tribulation Period.
"Using a magic weapon as the centerpiece of the formation?" Although Jiang Li was not aware of this beforehand, he was not surprised by this.
This formation has a huge effect, so naturally it needs a treasure that can bear the responsibility of such a huge cause and effect to serve as the center of the formation.
"Well, I asked Grandmaster Changcun, and he said that the Yin-Yang Heavenly Seal connects heaven and earth and has the ability to awaken spirits, making it the most suitable to be the center of the formation."
"Is Immortal Changcun safe and sound?" Jiang Li moved and asked.
"Of course he's fine. From the look of Master Changcun's spirit, he might still be alive when I die of old age. Do you want to see him?"
"I have some questions for him."
"Can I also go with you to see Immortal Elder Changcun?" The Holy Maiden Jingxin pointed at herself. She had only heard of the name of Immortal Elder Changcun but had never seen this old man.
"Yes, Master Changcun likes lively occasions, he wishes there were more people around." Bai Hongtu nodded.
"I still have some preparations to make for the Immortal Weapon Appreciation Conference. You guys go by yourselves. He is still in Fengji Cave." Bai Hongtu said and left in a hurry.
Dong Zhongren heard from Wang Bian that Jiang Li had found out about his affairs, so he felt embarrassed to stay there and left in a hurry as if he was escaping.
Buddhist disciple Wuzhi was very interested in the Immortal Weapon Appreciation Conference. Although it had not yet started, many cultivators had already come here to display their weapons. He also said goodbye to Jiang Li and Saint Lady Jingxin and strolled around with great interest.
…
"Is Immortal Changcun really the oldest person in Jiuzhou? Is he really an immortal?"
On the way to Fengji Cave, the Holy Maiden Jingxin asked.
"He is indeed an immortal. As for his age, it depends on how old your Red Dust Grandmaster is. Excluding the uncertain Red Dust Fairy, he is indeed the oldest person."
"I suspect he is Daozu's disciple, but he has never admitted it."
Before he became the Human Emperor, Jiang Li had asked questions to Immortal Changcun many times and had great respect for the old man.
The Holy Maiden Jingxin was slightly surprised. If he was really the disciple of Daozu, then Immortal Changcun would really be as good as his name, with long life and immortality.
Daozu's disciple must have lived at least 50,000 years ago.
A cultivator in the fusion stage can live for two to three thousand years, and during his long life he can witness the rise and fall of countless forces.
However, Immortal Changcun has witnessed the growth and death of countless cultivators in the fusion stage.
When Jiuzhou and the fairyland were still in contact, many fairies visited Jiuzhou, but they all returned to the fairyland after staying there for a few hundred years. Only Immortal Changcun, a native of Jiuzhou, felt that the fairyland was not as friendly as Jiuzhou after he ascended to heaven, so he returned to Jiuzhou and never left again.
Jiang Li felt that he was planning to retire in Jiuzhou.
However, it was thanks to this old antique that many doubts were answered, such as what is in the fairyland, how to become a fairy, it turns out that there is more to becoming a fairy than just a fairy above the tribulation period, and that fairies in the mortal world are the embodiment of the "beauty" of the heavenly way, etc.
Moreover, when successive human emperors were unable to stop the extraterritorial demons, Immortal Changcun also lent a hand and killed the demons.
But Immortal Changcun cannot take action too many times.
After becoming an immortal, all the spiritual energy in the body will be transformed into immortal power, which can support the immortal body. Immortal power is only available in the immortal world. After the immortal comes down to earth, the immortal power in the body will be used less and less.
After the Immortal Changcun came down to the mortal world, he planned to go to the fairyland to replenish his immortal power when he ran out. Anyway, he could travel back and forth to the fairyland freely. Who would have thought that there was a problem with the ladder to immortality and he could not go to the fairyland.
This is troublesome.
This book was recently updated on ##六@@九@@书@@吧!! Update!
Once he has used up all his immortal power, his body will collapse and he will die after experiencing the five signs of decay!
He tried not to take action as much as possible.
"Immortal master, are you there? I come to you with questions again." Jiang Li shouted in front of the stone gate of Fengji Cave, and the stone gate opened automatically.
The two entered the cave and found that the most common things in the cave were various ancient books, some of which were neatly placed on the bookshelf, and some were scattered all over the floor. Of course, ancient books are relative, and for Changcun Xianweng, these are all newly published.
"There must be something wrong every time you come back, can't you just come to see me?" Immortal Changcun pretended to be very indignant, but Saint Jingxin could see that he was very happy about Jiang Li's arrival.
"Well, he actually brought someone else with him. This is really rare." Immortal Changcun looked like an ordinary old man in the countryside, skinny, hunchbacked, with age spots, calluses on his hands, and wearing ordinary coarse linen clothes.
This is a manifestation of the extreme convergence of qi and blood.
Immortal Changcun looked at Jiang Li, who was revered as the Emperor of Jiang, and felt deeply moved. Who would have thought that the little kid who was just in the Nascent Soul stage back then would have become so unfathomable now.
As an immortal, he couldn't tell how strong Jiang Li was.
"This little girl looks pretty. Whose doll is she?"
"To reply to the Immortal, Jingxin comes from the Pure Land of the Red Dust, and is the descendant of the Red Dust Patriarch."
"Fairy Hongchen, this is a name I haven't heard for a long time." Immortal Changcun laughed and entertained the two of them warmly, taking out the best spiritual tea and cakes.
Of course the three of them were fasting, but that didn’t mean they couldn’t enjoy delicious food.
She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but the Holy Maiden Jingxin felt that when she said that she was a descendant of the Hongchen Patriarch, the Immortal Master Changcun became much more enthusiastic and the way he looked at her changed.
How should I put it? It was like a doting look as if he was looking at his own younger generation.
"This is someone who has seen the Fairy Hongchen with his own eyes." Jiang Li sent a message to the Holy Maiden Jingxin.
The Holy Maiden Jingxin understood that this was because he was still thinking about his own ancestor.
