I am cultivating immortality in the chaotic world.

Chapter 187 "The demons are about to fight their first battle!"

"Um"

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yu hesitated and said, "29 billion sin points, I don't think it's strong enough to run around Xuantian Continent, right?"

"You can try it!"

Ao Tian said seriously, "After you told me about the effect of your "Merit Body Protection" last time, I knew that this thunder tribulation would be no problem for you."

"With nearly 900 billion merit points protecting you, if this thunder calamity can kill you, then there will be few people in the entire Xuantian Continent who can survive."

"As for whether 29 billion sin points can be used to run sideways in Xuantian Continent."

"To be honest, I don't know."

"never seen it."

Ao Tian shook his head: "In the sin value ranking list of Xuantian Continent, your sin value of 29 billion is far ahead. The second place has only 3 million sin value, and the fifth place has only 9102 million sin value."

"The combined sin values ​​of people from 2nd to 99th on the list are not as high as yours."

"I haven't seen what it's like when they go through a thunder tribulation, but I think with your high sin value, the thunder tribulation must be very powerful."

"When you are going through a thunder tribulation, the tribulation cloud will not move. Of course, you will be confined within the range of the tribulation cloud and unable to get out."

"You can definitely stay here as a trump card. Anyway, the "World Conflict" version hasn't arrived yet, and you can't get the totem of the God Transformation Realm. Even if you break through to the first level of God Transformation now, it will be meaningless."

"Without the Divine Transformation realm, the first level is stronger than the peak of the Nascent Soul, but not much stronger."

Chen Yu thought for a moment and nodded: "Then I'll listen to my brother."

After Ao Tian left, Chen Lu looked at the entry "bury with honor after death" engraved on his Nascent Soul, an entry that had no side effects but would not be used during his lifetime. He chose this entry and "repay kindness with enmity" at that time.

Simply because these two terms have no side effects.

Perhaps it was because he had been practicing in seclusion these days.

I forgot that I have an entry called "Good Luck is Coming". The effect of this entry is to consume 10 merit points, and you can get a chance to re-screen an entry when choosing this entry from three options.

I should have used this entry at that time, consumed 10 merit points, and tried again.

But he forgot.

But it doesn't matter.

He quickly adjusted his mindset, thinking that maybe the entries that were re-screened were also very bad. Since it was all in the past, he didn't think about it anymore and looked forward. With this lesson, he would remember it next time.

I'm pretty tired after being in seclusion for several days in a row. There are still six days left before the release of the "World Conflict Version", so I'll take a day off.

Chen Lu was strolling on Longdao Beach, leaning on an umbrella and clearing his mind. He didn't think about anything and just strolled leisurely facing the rising sun.

People cannot practice cultivation forever.

The purpose of practicing is to live a more comfortable life.

If you keep practicing and don’t even have time to take a walk, then you lose the meaning of practicing.

At least that's how it is for him.

"Father!"

In a palace in the core city of "Demon State", a young demon was standing on the blue brick floor holding a pile of jade slips with an indignant look on his face, looking at the middle-aged man sitting on the chair, then he threw the jade slips heavily on the ground and said angrily.

"I've had enough. Why do the demons always have to play the role of sowing discord every time there is chaos?"

"Can't you just switch it up?"

"My people are ignorant and don't understand the truth behind this. Don't you, as the leader of the demon tribe, also not understand this truth?"

"."

The middle-aged man sitting on the chair in the palace was silent for a long time, then he frowned and said thoughtfully: "Son, what you said makes sense. The demons really can't play the role of sowing discord every time there is trouble."

"After so many years, it's time for the demons to change."

"Father is still wise."

The young demon breathed a sigh of relief, and then, as if he had won a victory, he glared at the old man who had been following him. This old man was the butler assigned to him by his father, and had been with him since he was a child.

"Then father, let's just start to hide away from the world. I have thought of a way. We can just..."

Before the young demon could finish his words.

The middle-aged man sitting on the chair leaned back and slapped the armrest of the chair with a faintly excited look on his face: "After so many years, the demon clan has accumulated enough experience. This time, the demon clan will no longer play the role of sowing discord in the chaotic world!"

"The demons are about to fight their first battle!"

"The demons are going to lead their troops to join the frontal battlefield!"

"Come here, I'm going to give a speech, and ask everyone to join the army. The demons are going to carve out a niche for themselves in this chaotic world!"

"Using the inheritance of the demon clan as a bet, we will bet on a great cause that will last for ten thousand years!"

"The patriarch is so talented." The old man standing behind the young demon had a fanatical look on his face. He placed his right arm on his chest, bowed, and spoke loudly.

When the other high-ranking demons in the hall heard this, they all said enthusiastically: "We are willing to sacrifice our lives to help the demons achieve a great cause that will last for thousands of years!"

"."

The young demon standing in the hall was silent for a long time before he said softly, "Actually, I think it's good to sow discord. Let's all calm down and don't get excited."

"Our ancestors have always been stirring up discord in troubled times. They must have their reasons."

"Let's discuss this further."

"The World Conflict version will be released in six days. Don't be in a hurry. Take your time."

"How about we eat first?"

Led by an old man at the peak of the God Transformation Realm from the "Bishan Palace", one of the top forces in Zhongzhou, and followed by nearly a hundred God Transformations, they were standing in the "Lost Forest" and confronting the God Transformations of the demon clan.

"After a few days of negotiations, we are basically certain of it."

The old man at the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm of the Green Mountain Palace looked indifferently at the group of demon Divine Transformations standing above the Lost Forest and said, "After this world conflict begins, the Divine Transformations of the human race and the demon race will not fight each other."

"As for the younger Jindan people below, it's fine to let them have fun on their own. As long as our two tribes' Shenhua do not take action, this chaotic world will not come."

"Both sides are developing steadily."

"Do you have any more questions?"

"."

"."

At the edge of the "Extinct Forest", there were nearly a hundred demon gods standing on the treetops, but none of them spoke. They all looked at a demon god who was standing in the front and looked quite young.

Obviously this young man is the leader of their demon clan.

"No problem."

The young man looked at the old man at the peak of the Spiritualization Stage of the Green Mountain Palace and said with a smile: "Then it is agreed upon. I hope you humans can keep your promise for a little longer."

The old man from the Bishan Palace who was at the peak of the transformation of the gods looked at the group of demon clans’ transformation of the gods meaningfully, then turned around and left without stopping.

And a group of human gods behind him also followed.

The demon race has been in a state of division for tens of thousands of years, but now it seems to be unified. The demon race has its own king. This situation is not very good.

The demon race has more incarnations than the human race.

There must be many gods hiding in the Extinct Forest. The overall strength of the demon race has always been stronger than that of humans. However, every time there is a war in troubled times, the demon race is always unable to exert any strength, which allows humans to occupy more and more territory, and thus drive the demon race into the Extinct Forest.

But now it looks like.

If the demon race remains unified for long enough, it will be dangerous for the human race.

soon--

The group flew back to Zhongzhou. When they parted, the old man from Bishan Palace, who was at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm, glanced at everyone present and said hoarsely.

"There is one thing I need to remind you of."

"Then Chen Lu's cultivation should break through the peak of the Nascent Soul soon and prepare to build his own Divine Transformation Realm. Almost all the Divine Transformation Realm totems are controlled by Zhongzhou. Whoever among you encounters Chen Lu, don't alert the enemy and contact me immediately."

"I also want to meet this so-called leader of the Chaotian Sect."

"Palace Master."

A person from a small family who was in the early stage of the Spiritualization Realm whispered, "Just now, there was news from the family that there is a Heavenly Dao Secret Realm in Zhongzhou that will be opened in three days. In this Heavenly Dao Secret Realm, there is a Spiritualization Realm Totem that is suitable for practicing magic. Maybe Chen Lu will come."

"Very good." The old man at the peak of the Spiritualization Stage of the Green Mountain Palace nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Spread the news. I will personally take charge and wait for this master to join the network."

"Hasn't this Lord Sect Master become famous for fighting against opponents of higher rank since he debuted in Quzhou? I really want to see if he can defeat me in a fight of higher rank."

Zhongzhou, in a small family.

A young boy looked at his father with some confusion: "Father, why do they have such strong malice towards Chen Yu?"

"I can understand that the Buddhist sect has great malice towards Chen Lu. After all, Chen Lu took away the tenth-grade Nascent Soul of Kong Ming, the true disciple of the Buddhist sect, and even the thousand-year-old relic used to build the "Buddha Kingdom in the Palm" domain. "

"The younger sister of the young master of Sanchunlou died at the hands of Chen Lu."

"I can understand that these two forces have ill will towards Chen Yu, but as far as I know, the "Bishan Palace" and Chen Yu have no hatred or intersection. It is very likely that Chen Yu has never heard of the existence of Bishan Palace. Why does Bishan Palace have such strong ill will towards Chen Yu?"

"shush"

The middle-aged man looked around in a panic. Seeing that no divine thoughts were coming towards him, he breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "I'm telling you, although I'm in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm, I'm totally not good enough in front of these people."

"I told you, don't go out and tell others about it."

"According to the gossip I heard, these top forces in Zhongzhou all have a prophecy, or a warning, passed down tens of thousands of years ago."

"It is said that if the 'Chaotian Sect' reappears one day, we should escape from the world as soon as possible to avoid disaster."

"What?"

A trace of shock flashed in the boy's eyes: "Father, are you saying that so many top forces are hiding from the world not because of the coming chaos, but because of Chaotian Sect? But Chen Lu is only at the fifth level of Yuanying, how can he threaten these top forces who are at the peak of Huashen or even Lianxu period?"

"I don't know."

The middle-aged man shook his head, also somewhat puzzled: "I don't know the specific reason. This news was told to me by an outer sect elder of the Xuantian Sect before he retired from the world. He told me not to leak it out."

"And that 'Bishan Palace' must have known this news, so they subconsciously placed Chen Yu in the position of an imaginary enemy. Moreover, tens of thousands of years ago, Bishan Palace and the then Chaotian Sect had a deep conflict. Only fragments of this past have been passed down, and it is unknown whether they are true or false. In short, you just need to remember one thing."

"Hide at home during this time and don't go anywhere."

"That"

The young man hesitated and asked, "Should we report our whereabouts of Chen Yu?"

"Report it." The middle-aged man said unhappily, "Whether the prophecy is true or false, the Xuantian Sect has withdrawn from the world. Why should we touch the edge? Besides, we have been staying at home. How can we possibly find any trace of Chen Lu?"

The next six days.

The entire Xuantian Continent was undercurrent surging. In the last six days before the arrival of the World Conflict version, everyone was secretly making preparations.

Human race, demon race, devil race, dragon race.

Even some smaller races, such as the dwarves, are making their own preparations.

Snakes have their own paths, and rats have their own holes.

Not everyone is thinking about getting a big enough opportunity in this game. Staying alive is the main goal of many people, especially some mortals with low cultivation, who have already brought their families to the nearest city to seek refuge.

usually.

When fighting, they would always avoid cities. After all, the sin value brought by destroying a city often meant being struck to death once the thunder calamity came.

The higher the sin value, the higher the damage from the thunder tribulation. This is no joke.

In addition to the need to endure thunder tribulation when breaking through from the peak of the Nascent Soul stage to the Spiritualization stage, after the Spiritualization stage, each time a small realm is broken through, one also needs to endure thunder tribulation.

According to multiple factors such as the strength of the Nascent Soul grade and the sin value.

Divided into——

The one-nine thunder tribulations, the twenty-nine thunder tribulations, the ninety-nine thunder tribulations, etc.

The nineteenth thunder tribulation is the weakest, with only nine thunder tribulations, and each thunder tribulation will be stronger than the previous one, until the ninety-nine thunder tribulations, which is eighty-one thunder tribulations.

The nine-nine thunder tribulations could completely pulverize all those stubborn Divine Transformation cultivators.

That is why, in troubled times, hiding in a city is a relatively safe place. Of course, it can only be said to be relatively safe. If you really encounter something like Xiezhou, it will not make any difference, but it is definitely better than being in the wild.

Take Quzhou for example. At this time, all the cultivators were gathering towards the nearby cities. Quzhou had completely entered an era without gods. The original three gods had all fled to avoid the world.

If a god invades Quzhou at this time, no one in Quzhou will be able to stop him.

The power is more empty than ever before.

In addition, the dark hole in the sky above Quzhou was still leaking spiritual energy, which made many cultivators in Quzhou panic.

Many people tried to repair the hole with evil wood, just like the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect did a hundred years ago. However, even if they threw in hundreds of evil wood, the hole showed no signs of shrinking.

If no one deals with this hole, all the spiritual energy of the entire Xuantian Continent will leak out. Of course, the first to suffer will be their Quzhou.

After all, this hole is right above Quzhou's head.

"Then Chen Yu is not coming yet?"

In "Dayuan City", the true disciple of Wanshou Sect, this woman in white, was sitting on the roof of a teahouse, looking at the black hole in the sky above her head in a trance.

She tried to get closer, but the closer she got, the more fear she felt inside became.

She retreated before getting too close. She also tried throwing in seven or eight evil woods, but they were completely useless, or it could be said that they were completely useless.

And it wasn't just Chen Lu who didn't come.

There is no sect in Zhongzhou to deal with this matter. Everyone is preparing for the next "World Conflict" version, but no one cares about this black hole.

It seems that they have already assumed that Xuantian Continent will be destroyed within a hundred years, so they will kill enough people before it perishes.

She contacted the sect behind her, the Wanshou Sect.

The master’s reply to her was.

"No way, I can't handle it, just wait."

The meaning is very clear.

Just wait and wait for someone to handle this matter like the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Sect did a hundred years ago, or wait for the spiritual energy of Xuantian Continent to leak out completely and then enter the Dharma Ending Period.

This answer made her feel quite absurd. This was clearly a more important matter than the conflicts in the world, but why did everyone seem so indifferent?

It even made her feel a sense of falsehood about this world deep in her heart.

"Xiaoyue is still too young."

In Zhongzhou, inside the Wanshou Gate, a skinny old man shook his head and looked towards the direction of Quzhou. Although he could not see the hole above Quzhou, he could faintly feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth flowing in that direction.

This matter is actually very simple to solve.

As long as you collect enough evil wood, the problem can be easily solved.

But here's the problem.

If you want to fill this hole, it will take more than tens of thousands of evil trees.

A large amount of evil wood is needed.

Who will take the lead in this matter? Whoever takes the lead will do more work. Going to other forces to ask for the evil wood is not an easy task.

This thing is worth a lot of money.

Not only can it be used to enhance the strength of one's own Jindan Tianjiao in the Tianjiao Road half a year later, but it can also be used in many places, such as creating a spirit transformation realm, purifying the dusty Tiandao spiritual treasures, etc.

Who would be willing to give it away for free? Besides, it is impossible to collect all the evil wood in the hands of the forces in Xuantian Continent. It might be enough to collect the evil wood accumulated by one-third of the forces.

But here's the problem.

Who wants to pay and then let those who don’t pay enjoy the same treatment as them?
The person who takes the lead in doing this is simply doing a thankless job. He doesn't know how many people will criticize him behind his back and how many people he will offend.

Moreover, the Xuantian Continent is not populated only by humans. Shouldn’t the demons and monsters also make contributions?
If the person taking the lead bids for the purchase himself, no force would be willing to be the sucker.

then--

An absurd situation has arisen.

The sky in Quzhou has collapsed, just like the past hundred years. If nothing is done, the spiritual energy of the entire Xuantian Continent will continue to leak out until it is completely leaked out, ushering in the Dharma Ending Age.

Such a serious matter was tacitly ignored by all forces.

It was as if no one had received the message.

If the sky falls, there will always be someone tall to hold it up. Obviously no one wants to be that tall person.

Everyone's idea is basically the same, to wait and see what other forces say, and not to be in a hurry. This matter will only be officially pushed forward when everything is over if it is not dealt with.

Now it seems.

It will probably take another five or six years before we can start to move this forward.

At that time, the saintly lady of Xuantian Sect who was repairing the sky did not go there as soon as the sky collapsed. She waited for a year or two before she went there to repair it.

There is no rush.

Three days passed quickly.

There are still three days until the release of the "World Conflict" version.

During these three days, Chen Lu basically did nothing while staying on Dragon Island. He just wandered around the island every day. His cultivation level was getting higher and higher, and he flew wherever he went.

I seldom walk on my own two feet anymore.

When he was measuring Dragon Island with his feet, he realized that if he were just a mortal, it might take a long time to walk from one end of the island to the other, and he would have to cross mountains and rivers and face many ferocious beasts during the journey.

He spent most of his time wandering around during these three days.

Occasionally he would go to see how the disciples of Chaotian Sect were progressing in their cultivation, and Feilong had also successfully broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, using a body of a god as the material to form a fourth-grade Nascent Soul.

His Nascent Soul level was much higher than that of other disciples of Chaotian Sect. The Nascent Soul level of other disciples of Chaotian Sect were all second-grade Nascent Soul, and the fourth-grade Nascent Soul was his limit.

To reach a higher level of Nascent Soul, one needs the luck of heaven. This thing is not something that can be obtained just by wishing to do so. It is not that easy to obtain.

After breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, Feilong's cultivation progress began to soar. With the improvement of his cultivation, his physical fitness also improved significantly, and his face was not so pale anymore.

The cultivation progress of other disciples of Chaotian Sect was also very fast. After all, there was an unlimited supply of Yuanying Tiandao cultivation pills, and they were being consumed every second for twelve hours.

The progress of cultivation can increase by 12% in just one day.

In another day or two, everyone will be able to enter the second level of Nascent Soul. This speed is already very fast, but it is still much slower than Feilong.

Occasionally I sit alone on the beach, grill something, admire the waves, and consolidate my cultivation level.

When the outside world is already undercurrent.

Instead, he has lived a peaceful life.

at this time--

Suddenly, a golden light flashed by his side, and Ao Tian appeared beside Chen Yu who was standing on the beach. He handed him a storage ring and said, "I searched the Dragon Clan's treasury and only found this many evil woods, less than 3,000 pieces. See if they are enough."

"That should be enough."

Chen Yu took the storage ring with a smile: "I will use my evil wood first. If my evil wood is enough, I will not use yours. I will return it to you then."

"Brother, why are you still so polite to me?"

Ao Tian pretended to be angry and said, "The Chaotian Sect and the Dragon Clan have signed a blood contract. Your business is our business. However, brother, you are indeed the kindest person I have ever met."

"No one in the entire Xuantian Continent cares about this matter. Brother, for the sake of the people of the world, you should use your own background to fill this hole."

Chen Yu tilted his head to look at the sea level and smiled gently, "Someone has to take care of it. We can't just sit there and watch the end of the law come. Since no one is willing to take the lead, then I'll do it."

"But it's okay."

"When the time comes, we can go to Zhongzhou to find them and pay them."

"That makes sense." Ao Tian nodded in approval: "There is an old saying among humans that one should not fight an unjust war. If one wants to start a war, one must have a just cause."

"Let's help them plug this hole first. They should naturally help us share some of the losses. The entire Xuantian Continent's affairs cannot be left to you, my brother, to plug with your own resources."

"This is a very decent name. It sounds much better than going out to rob people."

"Let's go."

Chen Lu chuckled and said nothing, just shook his head. He didn't really care whether it was an unjust war or not. It didn't matter whether it had this title or not.

If he doesn't have enough resources, he has to rob them.

It's such a simple truth.

He practiced so hard just to be able to obtain resources in this simpler and more brutal way. The most important thing was -

He really wants the hundreds of billions of merits from repairing the sky.

It is very useful whether it is used to complete milestone tasks or in the merit store that will be launched with the World Conflict version.

One of the twelve milestone tasks of Xuantian Continent, obtaining 300 billion merit points or 300 billion sin points, is cumulative. In other words, even if he spends all his merit points, as long as he accumulates 300 billion merit points.

Two hours later.

Chen Lu has already appeared in "Dayuan City" without bringing anyone with him. There are only him and Ao Tian. Feilong Shusheng and others are practicing hard on Dragon Island.

For safety reasons.

Ao Tian was wearing a cloak and trying to conceal his aura as much as possible. He sat opposite him and drank tea quietly with his head down. It seemed that Ao Tian had been hunted by humans many times.

And the loss must be quite big.

Otherwise, he would not be so cautious, so cautious that even though there was no god in Quzhou at this time, he would still hide himself as much as possible.

"."

Chen Lu, who was sitting at a roadside stall, looked up at the hole above his head. At this moment, a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth was slowly leaking out through the hole.

"The sky is so fragile. It collapsed once a hundred years ago, and now it's collapsing again."

“Are there any specific operations?”

Chen Yu looked up at Ao Tian who was sitting opposite him and asked, "Or should we just fly up and throw the evil wood in?"

Ao Tian nodded and said hesitantly: "That's what the saint girl of Xuantian Sect did when she repaired the sky a hundred years ago. Just get close to the hole and throw enough evil wood into it."

"I was watching from afar at the time, and that's how the Xuantian Sect Saint Daughter operated."

"But I don't know what happened in the end. When the hole was completely repaired and about to close, and the Heavenly Dao edict sounded, at the last moment, the saint girl inexplicably drilled into the hole and never came out again."

"People have been saying that the Saintess of Xuantian Sect found that there was not enough evil wood at the last moment, so she used her body to mend the sky. This story sounds quite touching, but it is illogical. The sky had already been mended at that time, and she drilled into it at the last moment."

“It still feels a little dangerous.”

"Just be careful, brother."

"If it really doesn't work, just step down first. Someone will always solve this problem."

"Ah."

After Chen Lu finished drinking the cup of tea in his hand, he took off his cloak and placed it on the table. Spiritual energy surged under his feet, and he walked towards the hole above Quzhou's head step by step.

Go and see what this hole is like.

Hundreds of billions of merit points are quite attractive to him. With the "Merit Defense Order" in hand, he has a certain degree of confidence that he can face most crises.

Hundreds of breaths later, Chen Lu had already approached the hole in the sky above Quzhou.

At a glance.

The interior was extremely dark, the kind of darkness that felt like nothingness, without a single ray of light. When one's spiritual sense was probed into it, it was like a drop in the ocean, with no sign of life being detected.

He could only feel a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth passing through the surface of his body and being swallowed by the hole in front of him.

When I looked up at the hole in the sky above my head from below Quzhou, I didn't actually have much reaction. I just felt a little helpless, but there was no strong emotion.

But when you stand in front of this black hole of nothingness, you can feel an extremely strong sense of oppression coming towards you.

It's the kind of despair that comes from being abandoned in the depths of the ocean, with no land around and in the middle of the night.

After staring into the depths of a black hole for a long time, I even had an urge to drill into the black hole and find out what was inside.
