Chapter 188 Hongjun is about to become a saint
[The chapter is wrong, it should be Chapter 188...]
Inside the Zixiao Palace.
Hongjun sat cross-legged on a cushion, absorbing the light of the sun, moon, stars and rivers, taking in the spiritual energy from all over the world, warming himself and repairing his injuries.
In the battle with Li Zang, he first exhausted most of the magic power in his body, activating the three innate treasures, Pangu Banner, Four Swords of Zhuxian, and Jade Disc of Creation, to attack Li Zang.
Afterwards, there were repeated fights.
Afterwards, he managed to withstand a heavy blow from Li Zang. His magic power had already been greatly depleted, and he was hit by another attack. At this moment, he was seriously injured internally.
I guess this injury won’t heal in the short term.
Practitioners at his level don’t get injured easily, but if they do get injured, it’s often serious and requires a long period of recuperation before they can recover.
"Prove the truth with strength..."
Hongjun murmured to himself, feeling a little doubtful about what Li Zang was doing.
There are indeed countless ways of spiritual practice in the world, but when you reach the end and are about to reach the threshold of becoming a saint, all streams return to the source and all paths lead to the same destination.
There are four ways to become a saint in heaven and earth.
The first type is to become a saint by understanding the laws. One must comprehend the three thousand great laws and draw knowledge from them. The so-called knowledge is power. By mastering the laws, one can achieve transformation and transcendence.
This method of becoming a saint has many forms, because the laws of the great way are almost endless. One can read a lot of books and dabble in every great way to become a saint, or one can focus on practicing a single great way to become a saint, and one can also achieve a variety of combinations...
Among them, the so-called three thousand gods and demons of the chaotic period are the incarnations of the three thousand great ways, each mastering a complete great way...
This is the path currently taken by most quasi-saints in the prehistoric world, but the difficulty is self-evident. Moreover, as the way of heaven becomes more perfect and the force of suppression increases, it becomes increasingly difficult as time goes on.
Although it is difficult, there is still a chance.
After all, the current Heavenly Dao is not perfect enough, and the Three Thousand Great Daos have not yet been hidden, so there is still room for enlightenment and achievement.
He is also walking on this path, and because of the help of the Jade Disc of Creation, he has always been ahead of everyone else. At present, he is only half a step away from becoming a saint!!!
The second one is the way he has researched recently, which is the method of becoming a saint by beheading the three corpses. After the Daluo is perfected, one corpse is beheaded for the early stage of quasi-sainthood, two corpses for the middle stage, and three corpses for the late stage. Then, practice to perfection, and the three corpses become one, seize the fortune of heaven and earth, and achieve the Hunyuan Dao fruit.
But what about this path... This path will be his plan, a way to suppress the world for the sake of heaven and for himself.
Ever since he was only one step away from becoming a saint, he began to have a special feeling, as if he was born with a mission that must be accomplished.
This matter is related to heaven.
The third type is attaining enlightenment through merit.
Make great wishes to heaven and earth, gain tremendous merits, use the golden light of merits to promote your own cultivation, and become a saint.
Both of them can be called saints, but there are differences between them. Although their primordial spirits are entrusted to the Way of Heaven, as long as the Way of Heaven is not destroyed, the saints will not perish.
However, the prerequisite for this path is to become a vassal of the Way of Heaven. Once you become a vassal of the Way of Heaven, it naturally means that you cannot transcend the Way of Heaven. You will become strong because the Way of Heaven is strong, and you will become weak because the Way of Heaven is weak.
Even more so, once you are too far away from the primitive world, your magic power will be greatly reduced...
This is not the proper path to becoming a saint; it can be said that it is a side path that leads to an alternative path.
However, sainthood is sainthood, and the temptation of sainthood is the greatest goal of all practitioners. All practitioners in the world will not reject this path.
The last one is naturally the most difficult one - proving the truth through force.
What one cultivates is one's own Tao fruit, that is, to use one's own infinite and profound magic power and cultivation to forcibly break free from the constraints of the Heavenly Dao and become a saint!
This path is also about comprehending the rules, but it is different from using the rules to control the power of heaven and earth. Instead, it is about engraving the rules on the physical body and making one's own existence an existence outside the Tao!
The body is a world of its own and magic power comes from one's own heaven and earth. It is outside the Three Realms and not within the Five Elements!
Among them, the first and fourth are the most difficult ways to become a saint, but they are also the most powerful ways to become a saint. They do not have to be bound by the laws of nature, and one can still exert one's full strength even in a chaotic space.
But……
No matter how strong you are, you shouldn't be that strong.
Hongjun was very sure that Li Zang had not yet taken the step of becoming a saint, otherwise, killing them would be a piece of cake.
But if everyone is at the quasi-saint level, the gap is a bit too big.
"Today is my calamity."
Hongjun held it in for a long time, and finally could only sigh and utter this sentence.
With these words, he deceived himself.
Yes, it's just a disaster.
Even the Jade Disc of Creation, the most powerful magic weapon that helps practitioners comprehend the laws and attain the status of a saint, was lost. It was a heavy loss.
Hongjun was not too upset. He was a person who had truly achieved success in his cultivation. At his level, let alone losing a magic weapon, even if he lost his life, he would not be at all upset at the moment of life and death.
His emotions had been almost completely wiped out during the endless years of cultivation.
What remains is only the obsession to become a saint.
He is gradually approaching the state where the way of heaven is ruthless and saints are ruthless.
Even though his defense was almost broken because of Li Zang, he still had a good attitude and his defense was broken but not completely broken.
"Three tribes..."
The only thing on Hongjun's mind now was the reversal of the three tribes' calamity.
The luck of heaven and earth cannot directly help practitioners become saints.
However, the luck of heaven and earth can help practitioners speed up their understanding of the laws.
He originally wanted to seize the luck of the three clans and borrow the help of the luck of heaven and earth to speed up his comprehension of the laws. Now it seems that with Li Zang here, there is probably no hope of doing this.
"Never mind... it's just a matter of time and effort. If I can hold on for a few million more years, it will work."
Hongjun was no longer optimistic about his plan to become a saint quickly.
Any cultivator who can reach this stage must have made many enemies along the way. Whoever can become a saint first will be the master of the ancient world, while those who come later will all end up being liquidated!
This is bound to happen and there will be no surprises.
No matter whether it is him, Luohou, Minghe, Yin-Yang Patriarch, Zulong or other top quasi-saints, whoever achieves the status of saint first, the first thing he will do is to kill or cripple other quasi-saints who may achieve the status of saint first!
Unless, you escape to the depths of chaos beyond the sky...
But the depths of chaos is a desolate place, where there are many chaotic gods and demons and quasi-saints that survived before the creation of the world, but they may not be able to survive safely there.
Hongjun was already preparing for the worst. With someone like Li Zang in the world, he might not be able to achieve the status of a saint before him. If that were the case, he would sooner or later be trapped in the chaos. It was better to do it sooner rather than later, or else he could do it today...
Suddenly, a purple cloud fell from the sky!!!
The purple air contained mysterious and amazing power. Once it appeared, Hongjun couldn't take his eyes off it.
"What's this?!"
The next second, the sky turned into a brilliant purple!
Before Hongjun could react, he saw the astonishing purple energy pouring into his body.
In an instant, myriad divine auras emerged from his body.
"Hongmeng...Purple Qi!!!"
Hongjun felt a large amount of Hongmeng purple energy pouring into his body, and he was so surprised that he couldn't help himself.
I was surprised at the inexplicable appearance of the Hongmeng Purple Qi, and also surprised at its magical effects!
Hongjun could clearly feel that his cultivation was rising at an incredible speed!
At the same time, a large number of images flooded into his mind.
That was the picture of Li Zang who had just crossed over from another world!
"I see……"
After realizing that the Heavenly Tomb performed by Li Zang might pose a fatal threat to it, Honghuang Tiandao began to fight back instinctively.
The terrifying power of death and silence displayed by the Heavenly Tomb is the end of all worlds.
No matter what world it is, people will naturally fear the existence of the Heavenly Tomb and resist the arrival of the end of death.
However, due to its special nature, it cannot directly intervene in everything in the world.
Therefore, it chose Hongjun as its destined person and used him as its agent to handle possible crises for him!
"Daoist Li Zang, you are an alien!"
Hongjun murmured to himself, feeling the surging level of his cultivation within his body, and remained silent.
This is because the primordial purple energy given by the ancient world is not without a price.
The prehistoric world wanted him to kill Li Zang, so they gave him power to help him break through the saint realm ahead of time.
This time, Honghuang Tiandi spent a lot of money, because, there was not just one ray of Hongmeng purple qi, but ten ray of Hongmeng purple qi that could create ten saints!
Hongjun didn't mind helping Honghuang Tiandao kill Li Zang, provided that he had the ability.
"It is estimated that he will advance to Sainthood in ten days..."
After estimating the time of promotion, Hongjun closed his eyes and completely immersed his mind in the promotion process!
All kinds of great rules of the Dao appeared before his eyes as if they were stripped naked, allowing him to comprehend and understand them in depth!
The moment Hongjun closed his eyes, infinite power burst out from his body!!!
In the ancient world, almost all the people with great supernatural powers felt the breath of a saint about to be born in an instant.
Luo Hou looked towards Zixiao Palace, his face changed greatly, and he said in shock: "Hongjun is about to become a saint... How is this possible!?"
"impossible!"
“This is impossible!”
Luohou was well aware of Hongjun's level of cultivation. Hongjun was at a similar level to him, and in terms of personal combat power, he was even slightly better than him.
They were only half a step away, but this half step was like a chasm that was difficult to cross. Otherwise, he and Hongjun would not have been able to instigate a civil war among the three tribes and plot their destinies.
Because they know that if not, it would take at least tens or even millions of years to become a saint!
But today, Hongjun is about to break through. How can he not be surprised!
Luohou could even imagine the scene where Hongjun would kill him immediately after becoming a saint!
"no!"
"Absolutely not, I can't let him break through!"
In Luohou's mind, he forgot about Li Zang and his whole mind was filled with the idea of stopping Hongjun from breaking through to the realm of saint!
For him, Li Zang was not invincible, as long as he could become a saint before Li Zang.
But if anyone becomes a saint before that, it will be a disaster for the others!
Luohu didn't want to see that happen!
So, he took action!!!
There were quite a few powerful people in the ancient times who had the same idea as him. At this moment, everyone took action together!
Among them are many powerful people in the prehistoric times who have a very good relationship with Hongjun.
Don't think that they won't take action just because you have a good relationship with them.
If there is only one person who can achieve enlightenment, no one will show mercy!!!
Fight!
It’s all about contention!
Above the Zixiao Palace, several huge hands flew out from the void with astonishing power and slammed down towards the Zixiao Palace.
The power of the sky is so vast and boundless that it is beyond imagination!!!
This is the power of a quasi-saint!
Although the quasi-saint cannot reopen the world, by spending some time, he can make the world return to chaos!
"My friend, I'm sorry, I can't just watch you become a saint."
"You old thief, don't even think about becoming a saint!!!"
"Destroy!!!"
"kill!!!"
Hongjun's face was calm and his eyes were not open, as if he was unaware of everything that was happening in the outside world.
Next second.
The curtain of the sky opened, and the world suddenly became bright!
Heavenly Dao, coming!!!
In the eyes of all the powerful, the sky and the earth suddenly turned upside down, the sea of clouds surged, time intertwined, and the world was created!
The attacks of Luohou and others were wiped out in an instant!
It was not Hongjun who wiped out their attacks, but Tian.
The Great Heavenly Dao is protecting Hongjun with all its might!!!
"Heavenly protection!?"
"Tian Dao... Fuck, could this thief old Taoist be your old lover!?"
“Damn it!!!”
“Boom!”
In the Zixiao Palace, waves of Tao rhyme spread out along with astonishing fluctuations of heaven and earth!
The sky and the earth changed color, auspicious clouds covered the sky, and bursts of miraculous thunder were hidden in the auspicious clouds, as if the baby was gathering strength to protect the birth of the saint.
That power was so terrifying that just hiding it from view was like the end of the world.
Even though these powerful beings were separated by an endless distance, they still felt a sense of trembling in their hearts.
In the ancient land, creatures below the level of Quasi-Saints were even more unbearable and were directly pinned to the ground by this powerful pressure.
Hongjun's figure became clearer in the auspicious clouds, becoming more and more majestic and vast!
In front of Hongjun, all the powerful people began to feel their own insignificance.
This feeling is too shocking.
Most of the great powers in the ancient times had a drastic change of expression, and some even looked extremely uneasy.
However, some powerful beings in the ancient times who knew that there was nothing they could do now just looked back calmly in the direction of Zixiao Palace, sighed softly, and then flew straight into the chaos outside the sky without looking back!
After Hongjun becomes a saint and loses the protection of Heaven, should we fight him again?
But forget it!
Not to mention that he is protected by the Heavenly Dao, even if he is not, as time goes by, Hongjun will become stronger and stronger, and they will gradually lose the ability to hurt Hongjun.
The moment Hongjun became a saint was the moment when all of them would die.
Now is the time to escape.
Isn't it just losing the right to live in the sun? The worst that can happen is that you can live like Patriarch Yangmei, or wander outside the ancient world like the chaotic gods and demons. It's not that hard to accept compared to dying.
Luohou saw several of his peers who were fleeing from the prehistoric world... Taoist Qiankun, Patriarch of the Five Elements, Patriarch Hunkun, and Patriarch of the Styx.
Every one of these people ran away very quickly!
Thinking of this, Luohou revealed a bitter smile. In terms of combat power alone, he was undoubtedly a unique existence in the prehistoric world. With such a huge gap, he was not the first to become a saint.
Luo Hou murmured: "If I don't leave, I will be doomed..."
"only."
"If I leave this time, it will be forever. I will never be able to return and will have to live in the chaos outside the universe forever."
"If I leave, will I still be myself..."
Luohou suddenly raised his head and shouted loudly: "I am the Demon Ancestor! I am Luohou! Even if I die, I don't want to be a dog that has lost its home. I would rather die in battle!!!"
The words fell.
Luo Hou turned into a fierce light and rushed towards Zixiao Palace!!!
…
…
Lee's cottage.
At this moment, Li Zang is making a breakthrough.
In the battle with Hongjun, Luohou, and Minghe, his devouring power swallowed up a large number of attacks. Most of the power of those attacks has been completely digested and converted into the power of death, but there is still some left. At this moment, he is using this remaining power to enhance his divine body.
Compared to a bowl of Lao Kun soup that was boiled for ten years, the energy it obtains now is far more than a hundred times.
After a moment, both the Space Holy Body and the Sky Controlling Holy Body were pushed to the initial stage.
Of course, the gap between the intermediate divine body is too large...there is no chance at all.
Even if Li Zang drained himself, it would probably be very dangerous...
The intermediate divine body corresponds to the realm of a saint’s physical body becoming sanctified, and may even be stronger.
However, Li Zang now had plenty of fantasy coins, so he spent money to buy several other divine bodies and studied them.
The body of the Dark Emperor is a perfect match for the divine body of the Dark Emperor of Eternal Night.
Skyspeed Holy Body, Prison-Suppressing Holy Body, Immortal Demonic Body. Skyspeed Holy Body focuses on speed, Prison-Suppressing Holy Body focuses on physical mass, and Immortal Demonic Body focuses on recovery. The perfect combination of the three with Heavenly Strength Holy Body will surely bring out the power of the physical body to a more perfect and powerful physique!
The Holy Body of the End of Dharma, the Devouring Hand, the Holy Body of the End of Dharma is invulnerable to all attacks, the Devouring Hand can devour all attacks. Although the latter's devouring power has its limits and is far inferior to the devouring power of the vest, it is still very useful at the moment. *These two perfectly match the Lord of the Heavenly Tomb, the holy body of the virtual god who devours at the end.
The entry requirements for these divine bodies are quite high, but they can be easily solved with the different characteristics of the three major vests.
As the cultivation of the three vests improves, based on the means they have mastered, they can easily cultivate into some divine bodies that suit their own conditions.
After Li Zang bought these divine bodies, he spent a lot of time cultivating and upgraded all of them to the initial stage!
Fantasy coins are basically spent.
Strength has increased unprecedentedly!!!
When Li Zang opened his eyes, he felt as if there was endless power all over his body!
At this moment, he had a feeling that even if it was a saint, he could hang him up and beat him with a hammer!!!
No kidding, he feels so awesome now!!!
