The immortal cultivators who were the first to enter the divine land were already killing each other extremely fiercely. The rare treasures in the temple aroused their greed, and immediately there was a bloody storm.
"The struggle to cross the Great Dao is truly cruel."
Chen Sheng walked past a palace and saw that it was in a mess. Corpses and blood had overturned and stained the exquisitely carved beams and pillars, destroying the tranquility and majesty.
Several places where gods were worshipped were robbed, probably because the victors took them away.
"Everyone has his own destiny, just do your best and it will be fine."
Lu Zhu is not greedy. After she and Chen Sheng become Taoist partners, she no longer has any obsessions in her heart and tends to live a peaceful life.
Some of the immortal cultivators who entered the secret realm this time were at the same level as her, but they were full of hostility and had killed countless lives in order to obtain cultivation resources.
Only one or two can finally succeed, and most of them fall on the road of killing and become stepping stones for others.
So there is nothing wrong with being content and happy.
"That opportunity is in the depths of the divine realm."
Chen Sheng kept moving forward. After seizing the central authority of the secret realm, he had a most complete map in his mind and understood many things.
He walked through many palaces and saw some immortal cultivators robbing openly and secretly, as well as double-dealing betrayal and the brutal killing and eating of monsters.
He skipped all of these and did not participate.
Since you have embarked on this path to immortality, blood and storms are inevitable. It is normal to be killed or to kill others.
Finally! He came to the deepest part of the God's Domain, which was an extremely grand and tall palace with a very high door. There were fine runes and patterns flowing on the borders. It could not be opened without a decree.
In front of the gate stood many immortal cultivators and demon beasts that had begun to take human form, coveting the opportunity to enter the main hall.
But no matter how hard they attacked, they could not get their way and could only wait, staring blankly.
"Here?"
Luzhu's eyes fell on the main hall. Seeing its extraordinaryness, she thought it might indeed contain the great opportunity that Chen Sheng had mentioned.
"Yes, there is a great opportunity hidden here."
Chen Sheng affirmed.
He obtained the central authority of the secret realm and sensed many opportunities, but there was nothing comparable to the objects in the hall before him.
"My fellow Taoist, after you pacified the flood, did you obtain some secrets of the secret realm?"
Fang Xiaojin was also here. He was a man of deep thoughts. While testing Chen Sheng, he also made the hidden news clear.
Until now, he still doesn't know what Mr. Chen got after pacifying the flood, but he firmly believes that it was not simple at all.
“Swish, swish, swish!”
At the same time, more than a dozen figures here all looked at Chen Sheng with a look of inquiry.
If it weren't for the fact that Chen Sheng's aura was profound and unfathomable, one or two people with hot tempers would have taken direct action and arrested him for interrogation.
"This guy has a murderous heart."
Lu Zhu was furious. Fang Xiaojin's intention was so vicious that he pushed Chen Sheng to the forefront.
"No problem."
Chen Sheng smiled, comforted Lu Zhu, turned to look at everyone, and admitted, "Yes."
There is nothing to hide. He holds the central authority in his hands and has a lot of ease.
The people before us are like jumping clowns and are not a threat.
"Then you should open the palace door, so that so many fellow Taoists won't have to wait here."
A hint of gloom emerged in Fang Xiaojin's eyes. Chen Sheng's performance was too indifferent, and he didn't seem to be panicked at all about his secret being exposed.
He continued to test the waters, wanting to explore the reason behind Chen Sheng's confidence, and he really wanted to enter the hall and seize the opportunity.
"good……"
Mr. Chen did as he was told. He would have done the same thing even if no one else told him.
Because, that's what he came for.
“So refreshing…”
At this moment, Fang Xiaojin really felt a little uneasy in his heart. He always felt that his opponent was hiding very deeply, which made him feel insecure.
As for the other cultivators, they were in high spirits, thinking that Chen Sheng was a coward and could be manipulated at will.
“Boom…”
Chen Sheng's mind moved, and the door in the hall slowly opened. A dusty and heavy breath flowed out like river water.
Fragmented divine light was shining, and with it a heavy pressure, a huge figure appeared.
Everyone saw that there was a dragon coiled in the hall. It had a slender and beautiful body and dull eyes, but it was surrounded by an indelible aura of terrifying majesty.
"Dragon? The remains of Lady Linglong! She is a dragon."
Many cultivators know the origin of the Xilong River Secret Realm, which was left by Empress Linglong.
They looked through historical records and didn't know much about this mysterious being. They only knew that he was an alien who had achieved enlightenment.
Now we know that Lady Linglong is a dragon that has attained enlightenment. No wonder she can control the wind and rain and protect the well-being of all the people in the area.
“Buzz!”
There was an object resting on the fork of the dragon's horn. It was glowing faintly at this moment, blowing away the smoke and dust that was obscuring it, revealing its original appearance.
It is round, golden and transparent, exuding an immortal luster and having a very special and mysterious aura.
"That's... a dragon ball!"
moment.
The attention of all the immortal cultivators was drawn to the dragon ball. There was a warm light in their eyes and they were extremely eager.
Dragon Ball is the foundation of life of all dragon creatures. It is infinitely powerful and indestructible.
Empress Linglong's cultivation level is unfathomable, so her dragon balls are naturally even more powerful.
"It is still transforming and has not yet completely taken shape. There is a mysterious aura lingering on it. Could it be that... the authority of Lady Linglong is carried by it?"
Fang Xiaojin had a deep understanding of the secret realm of Xilong City. Combining it with the life experience of Empress Linglong, he deduced the origin of Linglong Pearl.
That mysterious aura was the authority of the gods. Although it had been shattered, it still brought about a transformation for Linglongzhu.
"This has gone beyond the scope of a magical tool. It is a magic weapon, a magic weapon that is still growing!"
The cultivators could not hide their excitement on their faces, and their eyes were shining. The magic weapon in front of them was dozens of times more powerful than any magic tool, and there was still room for improvement.
If you seize this opportunity, you will have all the resources for half your life's cultivation.
"Come!"
Mr. Chen nodded slightly, agreeing with everyone's analysis.
Then, he waved his hand, and the dragon ball fixed at the fork of the dragon's horn fell into his palm with a whoosh, like a swallow returning to its nest.
It feels heavy in the hand, with some weight, not cold, but has a feeling of warm jade.
The more Chen Sheng looked at it, the happier he became. This magic weapon was enough to be his trump card.
"Fellow Daoist, you have gained great fortune after pacifying the flood. It seems that you can easily collect the secret treasures and important tools in this secret realm."
With a wave of his hand, the Linglong Pearl became the owner's.
The cultivators in the hall were all stunned. They couldn't accept that with such a valuable treasure in front of them, they had to just be bystanders.
Among them, Fang Xiaojin took the lead in launching an attack, which aroused the emotions of everyone and isolated Chen Sheng.
"Why, you have objections?"
After taking the Linglong Pearl, Mr. Chen no longer had any interest in practicing Tai Chi with these people and his attitude was extremely tough.
He has a gentle temperament, but he is not always roundabout. He also has a murderous side.
"That's right! You took away all the good stuff, and left me with only junk. I don't like it."
Inside the main hall, a water-attributed monster spoke directly. It was murderous, with fierce light flashing in its eyes. It stared at Linglongzhu with indescribable enthusiasm.
Once this treasure is taken, it will dominate the Xilong River and have no major enemies in the future.
"Why don't you give up the Linglong Pearl and look for opportunities elsewhere."
At the same time, all the immortal cultivators started to attack. Their auras were entangled, like a cage or chains, entangling Chen Sheng and trapping him tightly.
There was a cold murderous intent everywhere.
He has become the target of public criticism!
“Well said.”
Chen Sheng's face was calm, and he didn't let this disturb his mood. He said, "You can shut up now."
Logically speaking, he has a firm stand.
If these people come to him to be ruthless, he can kill them.
"Daoyou, if you do this, you will have enemies everywhere."
Fang Xiaojin said sinisterly.
He had wanted to take action a long time ago, but Chen Sheng's methods were a bit unfathomable, so he didn't want to kill him directly.
"Stop talking nonsense and do it."
The immortal cultivators could no longer endure it, and the evil spirit flooded in like a tide, and the temperature continued to drop.
"roar!"
The water monster roared, the sound shook all directions, and ripples appeared in the void like the surface of water. Its demonic body burst out with strong blood energy, and the trident in its hand was extremely powerful. It chopped down at Chen Sheng's head with force.
This kind of power is truly extraordinary. Except for those who practice physical cultivation, it is generally difficult to directly contend with it.
"go……"
Chen Sheng's eyes were like crescent-shaped hooks, staring at the water monster. He suddenly turned his wrist, and the heavy exquisite bead in his hand was thrown out like a rolling stone.
Linglongzhu arrived before the water monster arrived. It forced its blood and energy to protect its body, but its bones were broken, its blood and energy dissipated, and its spirit was extremely depressed, and it was unable to fight anymore.
"With such little ability, you dare to embarrass me."
Chen Sheng arrived, and the iron sword in his hand passed through the void, making a low buzzing sound, like a hymn to death.
The next moment.
The head of the water monster was cut off directly, and its headless body fell to the ground, no longer moving.
This move shocked everyone in the hall.
If Chen Sheng didn't move, it would be fine. But when he moved, he was as fast as thunder. With the Linglong Pearl in his hand, his attack was sharp and almost unstoppable. It was too terrifying.
"There is a treasure in front of us. Isn't it worth risking our lives to take it?"
An experienced practitioner like Fang Xiaojin has a heart as hard as iron. He can travel for days just for a little bit of practice. This time he is really crazy.
Seeing that everyone was frightened by Chen Sheng's murderous aura, he threw away the idea of hiding his abilities and rushed out brazenly. A large handprint shone brightly with gold, covering half of the sky, and pressed down on Chen Sheng.
"You have guts!"
Judging from his character alone, Mr. Chen believes that Fang Xiaojin is very strong, with a strong will, capable of scheming and using tricks, and not lacking in ruthlessness and the ability to risk his life.
It is not surprising that such people can become Foundation Establishment cultivators from a casual cultivator.
He praised, but when it came time to kill, he was merciless.
Buzz! The exquisite bead on his head emitted a bright light. Chen Sheng was like a god walking on the earth, untainted by dust, invulnerable to all kinds of magic.
He controls the authority of the center of the secret realm. With a thought, essences from all directions gather together, his energy rises steadily, and his magic power is as powerful as the roaring sea, endless.
In an instant, Chen Sheng's power increased greatly. The iron sword in his hand did not have any magical properties, but when he slashed down with one sword, it was sharp and invincible.
"puff……"
Fang Xiaojin's attack fell into the void, breaking the Linglong Pearl, and then he saw a sword coming at him.
Afterwards, he flew backwards, covered in blood, and fell heavily to the ground. His body was in pain and his heart was extremely depressed. With this magic weapon, he was almost invincible.
"How can we fight like this!"
In a blink of an eye, two Foundation Establishment cultivators were defeated one after another, the water monster was killed, Fang Xiaojin was injured, and the Linglong Pearl was hanging above his head. Chen Sheng was like a brave god and was really hard to defeat.
"It has come to this. Either he dies or we die. There is no other way."
Fang Xiaojin showed his ruthless side, being ruthless to others and to himself. Seeing that the situation was at a stalemate, he dragged his injured body and attacked again.
He made hand gestures repeatedly, and his qi and intention intertwined, condensing into a wild little elephant, running on all fours, with rumbling sounds in the void, as fierce as a cannonball, hitting the exquisite pearl directly.
"clang!"
The exquisite bead shook, and its light became brighter, falling on the wild little elephant, like the scorching sun baking the earth, it started to smoke, then cracked and shattered.
"kill!"
Thanks to Fang Xiaojin's bloody charge, these wandering cultivators and monsters finally understood what was happening. They stopped holding back and launched fierce attacks on Chen Sheng.
Spells, blood, magic tools, talismans, etc., fell down like raindrops, without any cost.
“Buzz…”
Chen Sheng's spirit and energy rushed towards the Linglong Pearl like a beacon fire, and then it shone brightly, as if it had opened up a world on the other side, calling itself a domain.
The violent attack force came across the sky, shaking the exquisite pearl, and it seemed to be unable to stabilize.
"If we were outside, my magic power would not be able to function properly, but in the secret realm of Xilong River, you can forget about it."
Chen Sheng used the central authority of the Xilong River Secret Realm to call upon the surging spiritual inspiration, infuse it into his body, and refine it into an endless supply of magic power.
With the blessing of the great situation, his aura became extremely grand and majestic. With a point of his finger, Linglong Pearl was completely stabilized.
"kill!"
It was difficult to be hurt by any magic, and Chen Sheng had endless spiritual energy to squander. He raised his butcher knife and fought against his enemy without mercy.
The light of the Star-Slaying was blooming. After years of practice and the boost from the foundation-building magic power, this sword move had become unrivaled in sharpness.
With one strike of the sword, the armor and bones of this water-attributed monster were broken, its body was shattered, and the fire of life was completely extinguished.
"Water Dragon Song"
Chen Sheng attacked aggressively, his sword was very powerful, then he turned around, his magic power was like a dragon flying into the sky, and a blood mist was rolled up in the sky, which kept expanding and getting stronger.
A figure like an ancient celestial dragon rushed down arrogantly and slammed head-on into a cultivator who had reached the great perfection of the Qi Refining Realm, splattering blood and bones all over the sky. It then severely injured a cultivator who had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm before stopping.
"boom"
There was a casual cultivator holding a top-level first-class magic weapon, who briefly broke the suppression of Linglongzhu. He used both hands to evolve sword intent, and with a bright and sharp light, he killed Chen Sheng.
Chen Sheng stepped forward, and the power of Linglong Pearl increased, crushing the attacking sword intent and suppressing the first-level magic weapon of the cultivator beside him.
He pointed his finger, and a starlight flashed. A bloody hole appeared on the man's head, and his spirit was shattered, and he disappeared.
"I can't fight him. He is in the Xilong River Secret Realm with divine help. I can't hurt him at all."
Fang Xiaojin finally understood why Mr. Chen was in such a difficult situation and was very calm about it.
In the Xilong River Secret Realm, this great enemy is invincible. He dominates the central authority, has endless mana, and his Linglong Pearl is invulnerable to all kinds of attacks. He maximizes the advantages of all parties.
Whoosh! He saw fellow Taoists from all directions dying one after another, so he didn't dare to stay and used his escape technique to escape to another place.
As soon as this pioneer left, the few remaining cultivators no longer held on, and fled, leaving a bloody mess on the ground.
“Where are you going!”
Chen Sheng would never leave any traces behind when he did something. He sensed Fang Xiaojin's whereabouts with just a slight movement and then rushed to his destination.
"My fellow Taoist, why do you have to kill them all?"
Fang Xiaojin smiled bitterly, one careless move could lead to the complete loss. He relied on being cautious and decisive to establish a foundation among a group of casual cultivators, which was a great blessing from heaven.
He believed that the secret realm of Xilong River was the second turning point in his life, but the ending was not a soaring success, but a fall.
"I admire your noble character, but I cannot keep you here any longer."
Mr. Chen felt that Fang Xiaojin was a strong man with a strong will and deep scheming, the kind of person who could rival the geniuses of the Immortal Sect.
The reason why we were able to kill this man was because of the power of the Xilong River Secret Realm.
If we were outside, it would be difficult.
Therefore, he wanted to eliminate all hidden dangers in the Xilong River Secret Realm before he was willing to let go.
"Hahaha……"
Fang Xiaojin laughed so hard that tears almost came out of his eyes. It was so ironic that he was affirmed by his opponent but the price was death.
He burned his life potential, pushed his aura upward, and tried to fight shoulder to shoulder with Chen Sheng for the final battle.
Boom boom...
In the midst of the magnificent scene, Fang Xiaojin and Chen Sheng fought for dozens of moves without being defeated. His magical powers and will were earth-shaking and extremely cruel.
Then, he ran out of strength, his energy rapidly dropped, and he was killed by a punch from Chen Sheng.
"They will all go down to accompany you."
This is the only thing Mr. Chen can do for Fang Xiaojin.
If he hadn't come on this trip, Fang Xiaojin might have been the one laughing last.
This was an extremely powerful opponent, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time and was unable to enter the immortal gate. He eventually died while exploring the secret realm.
“Mercy…”
"I'll fight you."
"Come out of the secret realm and fight me fairly."
With one sword, Chen Sheng killed all the enemies in the Xilong River Secret Realm.
Compared with Fang Xiaojin, they were weak and not determined enough, so they were quickly caught in the trap and were defeated and died.
Xilong River.
Four or five days had passed since Chen Sheng entered the secret realm. All the bigwigs in Sijiu City who had come to apologize were standing on the shore, waiting, not daring to leave for fear of missing out on their last chance.
“This is truly a miraculous sight…”
"Hey, I heard that they joined forces this time and hit a wall."
"If everyone here unites, they can represent the entire city. Why are they still humiliating themselves like this?"
"The one I faced was an elder of an immortal sect."
"Xianzong! Elder! That's dangerous."
When residents of the city of Sijiu went to get water, they could see those high-ranking figures standing like quails, motionless, without any shade around them, braving the wind and rain. It was a spectacular sight.
This scene was truly bizarre, and it also caused rumors to spread like wildfire, making it quite lively.
"This time, our dignity and face have really fallen to the ground."
The patriarch of a certain immortal cultivation family let out a long sigh. They had been based in Sijiu City for more than 300 years, and this was the most humiliating moment ever.
Not to mention that others found it strange, even they felt it was ridiculous in their hearts.
"Let's talk about it after we get through this stage."
An old man who has experienced many ups and downs, his mood is fluctuating. The danger he encountered this time is even more crazy than all the previous years combined.
If that person does not forgive them, the family's path to becoming an immortal will be cut off from then on.
"Why don't you come out? It's too painful."
These are wise words that touched everyone's heart.
Their family's path to immortality depends on Chen Sheng's thoughts. If he gets to the bottom of it, he has the power to bring the immortals down to earth.
In front, the head of the Tian family and Li Chengru remained silent.
No matter how serious the crimes these people are guilty of, there is room for them to turn things around. The two of them are at the forefront and are the leaders.
One careless mistake can lead to real disaster.
"boom"
Waves were rising on the Xilong River.
In the misty water vapor, the outline of a secret world emerged, but before it could be fully revealed, it disappeared, leaving behind two figures like a couple of gods.
"They're out! There aren't many of them!"
Beside the Xilong River, the big shots of Sijiu City finally saw the two figures they had been longing for.
They were happy and excited, but after thinking it through, they were a little scared. There were dozens of people when they left, but only a few when they came back.
They couldn't help but suspect that these people were killed by the two immortal sect masters.
If it is true, with such a strong murderous instinct, will he let them go?
"Why, revenge is here."
Chen Sheng came walking on the water and faced the cultivators directly, but his expression was extremely indifferent.
With the Linglong Pearl in his hand, he is invulnerable to all attacks by those of the same level. Even if these people want to die together with him, they cannot do it.
"Sir, we are guilty."
Just this one sentence almost frightened all the bigwigs in the city to their knees.
They did not have the courage to attack and kill the elders of the Immortal Sect. That crime was too great. Once the news leaked out, Sijiu City would be reduced to ruins in an instant.
"What crime have you committed? Setting up a Hongmen Banquet? Coveting my family fortune? Assassinating and killing the outer sect elders of the Immortal Sect?"
Mr. Chen's tone was indifferent, but every word he spoke was as cold as a knife, pointing directly to the vital point.
"grown ups!"
“Mercy!”
Those who came from Sijiu City to apologize knelt down immediately.
There are traces of attacking the elders of the Immortal Sect. Although it has not been actually implemented yet and there is room for maneuver, if we take it seriously, the Immortal Sect can send people to suppress and kill them.
This is no joke. They can't afford it and can only beg for mercy.
"Fellow Daoist, I am possessed by a demon for a moment. You can beat me or scold me if you want."
Li Chengru lowered his head, completely discarding his pride, raised his hands high, and said: "This is Li's alchemy inheritance. I present it to you with both hands today. I hope you will forgive me."
He admitted defeat. He started from the Dandao tradition and also ended up with the Dandao tradition.
"I accept this."
Chen Sheng finally accepted Li Chengru's apology and said, "I have one more request. From now on, when you see a sick or injured person, no matter their status, you must go and treat them."
Killing a second-level alchemist with force would have too bad an impact and be too wasteful.
This grudge could be big or small, but he ultimately chose a gentle approach.
"Daoyou, have mercy."
Hearing this additional request, Li Chengru had a complicated expression. He was inferior in power, status, and mind.
Losing to such a person doesn't seem particularly shameful.
He left, and in the next few decades, he appeared mostly in the human world, but he kept his promise.
"Wait..."
Chen Sheng raised his eyes and looked at the leaders of various families in Sijiu City. There was a hint of coldness in his eyes. These people had impure intentions, were greedy for money and harmed the people, so they were all killed, and no one was wronged.
"Sir, all the wealth in our clan's treasury is in this bag. Please forgive me for the offense."
"Me too."
"Please spare my life. No matter how difficult my training becomes in the future, I will never dare to be greedy again."
…
The cries for mercy continued to echo.
These family leaders were also furious. In order to end the cause and effect, they discussed moving the treasury here.
Mr. Chen hesitated for a moment and collected everyone's storage bags. As an accomplice, this punishment was enough.
"Sir, are you going to wipe out my Tian family?"
On the river bank, the face of the head of the Tian family turned pale. Mr. Chen accepted the apologies from various families.
Only the Tian family did not accept it, and the danger involved was immeasurable.
"not enough!"
Chen Sheng said coldly.
In this cause and effect, the Tian family bears the lion's share, and the price paid by others is the same, but the Tian family cannot just write it off.
"But the Tian family can't give any more."
Hearing this, the head of the Tian family felt relieved a little, but then his heart tightened again. He did not hide his share and really emptied the Tian family's treasury.
Even if Mr. Chen refused to give in, he would have no chips to apologize.
"In the next hundred years, 70% of the Tian family's income will belong to me, and every ten years, it will be sent to the medicine house."
Mr. Chen set a deadline of one hundred years, and only then was the cause and effect between the two finally resolved.
They didn't kill them all, but they still suppressed the Tian family. Whether they could survive a hundred years later depended on fate.
"A hundred years? Yes!"
The head of the Tian family knew that there was no room for bargaining, so he agreed with a trembling body.
Just one chapter today, alas...
(End of this chapter)
