Chapter 229: Great Divine Power Appears, Book Mountain Deduction, the Future Four Swords Unite into One
"Your Excellency, this... is this person really as terrifying as you say?"
Yun Zhonglu originally wanted to call Lu Chen "this brat", but after seeing the serious expression on his master Gu Yue Zhenxian's face, he immediately changed his words.
It is true that the sword intent displayed by Lu Chen at this time was very astonishing, and the artistic conception and phantom manifested by the martial arts was terrifying enough.
But Yun Zhonglu felt that Lu Chen was, after all, just a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Even if he was the reincarnation of an immortal, Yun Zhonglu had seen the reincarnated immortal before.
Not every reincarnated immortal can return to his original peak.
Yun Zhonglu had seen people whose cultivation had regressed or even been forever damned in the mortal world.
In the current mountain of books and ocean of knowledge, he saw several reincarnated immortals.
Judging from their appearance, they are still a long way from awakening their 'true self'.
Unable to awaken their 'true self', then apart from their superior talents, there is actually not much difference between them and ordinary monks.
Therefore, it was a little bit confused as to why Immortal Gu Yue valued Lu Chen so much.
Even in his words, there was a sense of putting the other person above himself.
Although they are both immortals, their lord is a rare Daluo True Immortal in the Thirty-three Heavens.
Even among immortals, he is a well-deserved strong man.
Yun Zhonglu's belittling of Lu Chen was more of an underestimation of Lu Chen.
It would be better to say that it was to protect his master, Gu Yue Zhenxian.
However, facing Yunzhonglu's words, Guyue Zhenxian shook his head and said, "Little Deer, you haven't reached that level yet, so you can't see many things yet."
"You are now only in the Spiritual Transformation Stage, and your understanding of the Dao is like a frog at the bottom of a well seeing the bright moon in the sky."
"If one day you are lucky enough to pass the tribulation and become an immortal, you will find that what you thought was the world is actually just the tip of the iceberg. This world... is much bigger than you thought."
As he spoke, Immortal Gu Yue suddenly thought of something and turned to look in the direction of Xue Hai.
In his sight, he saw several evildoers using their own "Tao" as a boat of knowledge, advancing on the ocean of learning.
Ordinary people may not be able to see the difference between them and ordinary monks.
But for Gu Yue Zhenxian, he could see the true nature of these guys at a glance.
"Little Deer, did you see those guys?"
Looking in the direction of Immortal Gu Yue, Yun Zhonglu soon noticed those evildoers.
"Huh? He is actually a foreigner, and he even has immortal-level karma. Why didn't I notice it before?"
Looking at those evildoers, Yun Zhonglu's expression was very surprised.
Then it got serious.
If it weren't for the reminder from Gu Yue Zhenxian, it might not be able to tell the true strengths of these guys.
This time, there were really many existences that it couldn't understand mixed in during the True Immortal Trial.
First, several reincarnations of immortals appeared at the same time, followed by several ascetics from other worlds.
This is a situation that was rarely seen in the several True Immortal Trials in previous years.
This time, all the True Immortal trials appeared all at once.
This made Yun Zhonglu vaguely aware of the coming storm.
After all, only in times of great change will so many variables appear at the same time.
In such a treacherous fate, let alone a spiritual beast in the God Transformation Stage, even an immortal would find it difficult to remain immune.
Thinking of this, Yun Zhonglu immediately said, "Your Majesty, do you need me to catch them and ask them?"
Gu Yue Zhenxian shook his head and said, "Existence is reasonable, let them go. If they can hold on to the end, I may give them a chance."
"Xiaolu, remember this. When you only see the small place where you are, you are also trapping yourself here."
"What about the outsiders? What about other immortals?"
"If they have accepted my teachings and recognized my teachings, then why can't the outside world become my own land?"
"Take a long-term view. The people outside the world, or even the outside world behind them, are not to be feared. What is to be feared is to confine oneself to a small place and become complacent."
"This is the case with most of the fellow Taoists in the Thirty-Three Heavens right now. They no longer have the courage to go any further."
Hearing what Immortal Gu Yue said, Yun Zhonglu muttered secretly in his heart.
It hasn't even managed to overcome the calamity and become an immortal yet, so how could it understand anything about otherworldly places or ways to heaven?
But there was one thing Yun Zhonglu understood.
That is, the Immortal Gu Yue treats everyone equally, whether they are from outside or inside the square.
He even wanted to educate these people from outside the world, and turn that outside world... into his own world.
It was not until today that it understood why the Lord wanted to leave this legacy in the mortal world.
And why did he leave the Thirty-Three Heavens to explore the mysterious and strange land of chaos, and why hasn't he returned yet?
This is because what the Immortal Gu Yue seeks is the end of the Tao.
Yun Zhonglu put himself in the other person's shoes and thought about it.
If it reaches the realm of Ancient Moon True Immortal, perhaps it will be content with the status quo and will not take risks again...
Thinking of this, Yun Zhonglu suddenly understood why he had been stuck in the Spirit Transformation Stage for thousands of years and had been unable to make any progress.
Perhaps it was because it lost its enterprising spirit one day.
He is satisfied with his cultivation level at the Spirit Transformation Stage and has no desire to make further progress.
Coupled with the fear of the heavenly tribulation, it subconsciously began to stop practicing and instead trapped itself in the Spirit Transformation Stage.
It seems that now that the True Immortal Trial is over, I should try to make further progress...
Looking at Yunzhonglu's gradually clear eyes, Gu Yue Zhenxian's mouth corners slightly raised.
It's not that a rotten tree cannot be carved.
After instructing Yunzhonglu, Gu Yue Zhenxian no longer paid attention to the evil people in the ocean of learning.
Instead, he turned to look at Lu Chen who was in the mountain of books.
After all, he was also very curious about what was so special about Lu Chen's Daoyi Jue, which borrowed from ancient and modern martial arts.
With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see that the essence of Dao Yi Jue was actually to enter the Tao through the sword.
As for how far this path can go, Gu Yue Zhenxian is not sure.
But he could make the conclusion just by the feeling that the phantom of the technique gave him.
Although Lu Chen's Daoyi Jue has not been perfected yet, it already has the power to reach the sky.
After he has completely perfected this technique, he might be able to dispel the fog above everyone's head and allow many immortals who are content with the status quo to see the higher scenery.
The reason why Immortal Gu Yue had such high expectations for Lu Chen was naturally not entirely because of the Dao Yi Jue itself.
It also comes from Fairy Taiyin’s attitude towards Lu Chen.
You must know that Fairy Taiyin is one of the few true immortals in the Thirty-Three Heavens who has reached the ultimate level of magic.
The "art" here does not refer to magic, but refers to this world.
Fairy Taiyin has reached the end of this world and cannot see the way forward for the time being.
After spending countless years without making any progress, he chose to reincarnate and start over.
This also indirectly illustrates the strength of Fairy Taiyin.
The existence that even she is so secretive about must be extraordinary.
Mysterious background, terrifying talent, amazing skills...
It is precisely because of so many factors that Immortal Gu Yue is extremely optimistic about Lu Chen.
He even shared with him the one drop of immortal blood that remained in the Gathering Immortals Bell.
And now he wanted to see whether Lu Chen could live up to his expectations.
In the mountain of books, Lu Chen's four magic swords were suspended in the air, covering the surrounding area of the mountain.
An invisible pressure began to cover the mountain of books, making it difficult for everyone inside to breathe.
In fact, if Lu Chen were to do it alone, he would not be able to perform such an amazing sword formation and kung fu phantom.
Everything comes down to the special nature of Shushan.
Lu Chen discovered long ago that the mountain of books seemed to make the illusory "Tao" more concrete.
And this is just one of the functions of the mountain of books.
Another function of it is to reduce the difficulty for the monks in the Mountain of Books to comprehend the Tao.
Because the concrete "Tao" is much easier to comprehend than under normal circumstances.
It was also because of this that Lu Chen could easily integrate hundreds of ancient sages' skills in the Book Mountain and create his own Dao Yi Jue.
If he were to change to another place, Lu Chen would still be able to create the Dao Yi Jue.
But the time required will definitely be much longer than that required to read a mountain of books.
Even if he withdrew from the True Immortal Trial at this time, Lu Chen would still have made the trip worthwhile.
But before that, he wanted to test his Dao Yi Jue to see what heights he could reach in the future.
Lu Chen raised his hand, and the four swords of Zhuqie in the sky immediately vibrated.
For a moment, the originally quiet mountain of books became active again.
Everyone on the top of the mountain watched this scene, even though they knew that the Four Swords were not targeting them.
But they still subconsciously felt fear.
This was the case for the crowd just watching, let alone the phantom of the Hellfire Bull who was facing the Four Swords of Zhuqie.
"Mou!"
The Hellfire Bull stomped the ground, and countless flames burst out from the ground.
It transformed into a raging tsunami of fire, covering Lu Chen and the illusory figure behind him.
In the tsunami of fire, the Hellfire Bull walked on the flames, running rampant and fearless, giving a very oppressive feeling.
In response, the shadow that had been standing behind Lu Chen moved.
He raised his hand, and the immortal sword representing the Jueqi Sword among the four Zhuqi swords released a sword light that shot up into the sky.
The next second, an unspeakable force was exerted on all living beings in the mountain of books.
In an instant, everyone on the top of the mountain was horrified to find that they had turned into mortals who were unable to communicate with the spiritual power of heaven and earth.
What happened to the Hellfire Bull was that the flame that symbolized the Hellfire was instantly shattered.
They seemed to have hit an invisible wall and dissipated between heaven and earth.
The Hellfire Bull, bathed in the flames, revealed its true form.
Without the blessing of flames, it now looks no different from an ordinary cattle.
Feeling the power disappearing from his body, the Hellfire Bull stopped immediately and looked up.
I didn't know when the Jueqi sword was already floating above its head.
Without giving it too much chance to think, the Jueqi sword slowly fell down.
Bang! As the Book Mountain shook violently, the huge Prison Flame Bull disappeared.
Instead, an illusory and transparent sword was inserted in its original place.
And with the disappearance of the Hellfire Bull, the ancient sage who was the first to come out to stop Lu Chen immediately bowed to Lu Chen and then stepped aside.
Lu Chen was also able to move one step closer to the top of the mountain.
But it’s just one step.
Because new phantoms of sages appeared again.
However, the shadow of this ancient sage's skills still could not pose a threat to Lu Chen.
He couldn't even force Lu Chen to use other magic swords.
One, two, three...
Ancient sages appeared one after another, but left one after another.
Their ways could not stop Lu Chen's ways at all.
Just when Lu Chen was only one step away from the top of the mountain.
An ancient sage who had been watching from the sidelines walked out from the crowd.
Seeing the other party, Lu Chen stopped.
Because the phantom of the sage this time is different from before.
Those who had blocked his way before were the phantoms of sages in the Nascent Soul stage.
But this time, the one who appeared was a sage in the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Another title for the Spirit Transformation Stage is the great master who has entered the Dao Transformation Stage.
Such an opponent is naturally incomparable to the previous phantom of the sage.
If it was a real fight, Lu Chen would have no chance of winning.
But it’s different when it comes to discussing the Tao.
Especially in a special place like Shushan where the great way is manifested.
The powerful person who appeared in front of Lu Chen looked like an ordinary fisherman.
Straw hat, straw raincoat, fishing rod...
Everything was so ordinary, without any of the pressure that a person with great supernatural powers should have.
But this is just an ordinary looking old man.
But it brought Lu Chen an unprecedented sense of oppression.
From the beginning of his practice to now, Lu Chen has encountered two people with great supernatural powers.
Gu Liqing, the current leader of Qingyun Sect, who has entered the Dao Transformation Realm with the cultivation level of Nascent Soul Stage.
There is also a teacher at the Bailu Academy, who has a spirit beast in the Spiritual Transformation Stage, the Deer in the Clouds.
But these two had no ill will towards Lu Chen, so Lu Chen's feelings were not obvious.
But the old man in front of him was different.
Although he was just standing there, the space around him had already begun to distort.
The four swords surrounding Lu Chen also began to shake violently, as if they were being squeezed by some invisible force.
Lu Chen himself was also affected.
Tick-tock…
Listening to the sound of water dripping next to his ears, Lu Chen felt a strong sense of weightlessness.
In a trance, the surrounding environment was spinning.
Not long after, Lu Chen found himself suddenly appearing on a lake.
The place where he stood changed from a mountain of books to a small boat.
As if sensing something, Lu Chen raised his head.
On the tranquil lake, an old man sat on the invisible shore, holding a huge fishing rod in his hand, seemingly fishing for something.
Looking at the other party, Lu Chen immediately realized that he had fallen into the other party's "Jedi Tiantong".
That is the world in the palm of the hand of a person with great supernatural powers.
In such an environment, even if Lu Chen had four Hedao-level sword domains, it would still be difficult to break the impasse.
After all, the artistic conception of the Daohua realm is no longer a gap that he can make up simply by relying on quantity.
But this is a mountain of books, and it’s a good thing that this is a mountain of books.
Lu Chen stood on the boat, his eyes gradually becoming empty.
The next second, the originally calm lake surface began to ripple.
Not long after, the shadow of the immortal that symbolized Daoyi Jue appeared behind Lu Chen again.
But this time, the immortal's phantom had changed a lot.
Not only did the purple light above his head become more dazzling, as if surrounded by stars, but the four Zhu Xian swords around his body began to merge and slowly formed a special, peerless immortal sword that penetrated heaven and earth.
Four swords combined into one, a complete sword formation to kill the enemy.
This is what Lu Chen has always pursued, but has not yet achieved.
But Shushan deduced it first.
Of course, this deduction is not unlimited.
Just because we can make reasonable deductions based on the current situation does not mean that the future will be like this.
But even so, from the moment this immortal sword that penetrated heaven and earth appeared.
An invisible vortex immediately began to rise with Lu Chen as the center.
The center of this vortex is exactly where the tip of the immortal sword above the head corresponds to...
Lu Chen raised his head, looked at the great master above him, and said, "Please, sir, bear witness to this sword."
As soon as the words fell, the intact Zhuqi sword above Lu Chen's head vibrated, and an invisible sword force spread throughout the arena.
The sword is so sharp that it seems to be able to tear apart space.
In response, the fisherman put down his hook expressionlessly.
A strong pull came from the fishhook, as if it could drag everything in the world into the fishhook.
Even the illusory "Tao" is no exception.
The suction of the fishhook and the force of the Zhuqi sword intertwined with each other, causing the entire surface of the lake to be torn apart.
