Ascension Through Generations

Cangzhou, Chongdao Peak.

Soon after, Emperor Yi walked out of the secret room with an expressionless face, turned around and came to the golden dome palace, slowly sat on the huge and gorgeous papal throne, and suddenly shouted coldly: "Here comes"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure emerged from the shadows in the palace, then quietly knelt down under the throne, lowered his head in awe and said: "Sect Master, Gongyang is here, what do you want to say?"

Emperor Yi looked indifferent and asked: "Mu'er, how many people in the sect have reached the limit of Nascent Soul?"

As the master of Xuntian Hall, Mu Gongyang naturally knew the situation of the Yuan Ying Great Sacrifice of our religion very well, so he replied without thinking: "Reporting to the sect master, there are currently three guardians of Queyue Town and the masters of Tianli and Yushen. Meet the standard of overcoming the tribulation.”

"Oh, there are so many candidates!" Emperor Yi nodded thoughtfully, pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "Pass this sect's decree and immediately transfer the envoy of Queyue guarding Haiyan back to the main altar. In addition, Get ready to open the Heaven Praying Tower! Don’t they want to overcome the catastrophe! This sect simply gives him a chance.”

After hearing this, Mu Gongyang felt a chill in his heart, and he quickly touched his chest and kowtowed: "I have received the decree and will definitely recall the Queyue Governor to the main altar as soon as possible!"

"Okay, go down!"

"As ordered, I will resign!"

…

Following Patriarch Xiaoyao and Grandma Shi, the five of them rushed to the two realms of the underworld, and Zhao Sheng's shocking feat inevitably leaked out from the five people.

Although this matter was only spread secretly above the Nascent Soul level, everyone who knew about this major incident was almost shocked, and it quickly caused an unprecedented sensation!

In just a few years, not only all the God-Transforming True Lords in the Nether Realm and most of the Nascent Soul Ancestors, but also a few well-informed Golden Core Priests also learned about the existence of a certain god-killer from their elders.

As a result, the original "Demon Star Taoist", a remnant of the Zhao family in Nantian, gradually evolved into another famous name "God-killing True Monarch" in the mouths of many high-level monks from both worlds.

Almost everyone vaguely regarded him as one of the strongest men in the Nether Realm, alongside several veteran true kings who had not walked around in the world for a long time.

For a time, the murderous reputation of the God-killing True King shocked both worlds and saved Zhao Sheng countless efforts in the future.

Yes, the behavior of Patriarch Xiaoyao and others was hinted at by him. The five true kings understood it and took the initiative to make him famous after returning!

If the distance between the two realms of Netherworld is too far, one cannot truly understand how powerful the God-Slaying Lord's methods are. It can be said that all the monks in Shenxufang almost went crazy with fear that day!

Because the shocking battle that day took place in a remote void that was only more than a thousand miles away from Shenxufang.

On that day, everyone felt the violent surge of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, as well as the formation of a torrent of spiritual energy.

There were even a few "lucky ones" who rode the saucer ship and witnessed with their own eyes the entire process from the birth to the evolution of the purple electric light group into a huge vortex thousands of miles away!

Afterwards, at least more than ten Nascent Soul Ancestors went to the battlefield in person to try to gain insight into the truth. As a result, they were all stunned by the 500-mile-long spherical "empty space"!

It was only a month after Demon Lord Dongxun "secretly" revealed the story of that day's battle to his close disciples. The name of the God-killing True Lord was first shouted out from Shenxufang, and some of Zhao Sheng's legendary deeds also came from tourists' mouths. spread gradually.

Of course, the protagonist of this matter, Zhao Sheng, did not take these disturbing things to heart at all. He only took one or two "casual moves" in advance. It is not yet known how much influence he will have on the future trends of the two worlds!

Shenxufang, a second-class cave in the southwest rock wall

No one in the world knows that the dignified God-killing Lord actually lives in a mere second-class cave.

The so-called "hidden in the city" is nothing more than that!

In fact, to the True Monarch of Transformation God, most of the spiritual places in the world have long been of no use. Anyway, unless you have core spiritual apertures of level 4 or above, no matter where you practice, the efficiency of practice is almost the same, almost despairingly slow!

Compared with other hard-working gods, Zhao Sheng's situation is slightly better, but his cultivation speed will inevitably be reduced by a hundred times.

After being promoted to God Transformation, Zhao Sheng actively adapted to the new practice environment and has now successfully changed his mentality!

Deep in the cave, Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged, holding a scroll that looked like gold but not gold, and was concentrating on identifying the words on the scroll.

At this moment, on the wall behind him, a big word "Tao" was written with a pen and a dragon and a snake. The font was elegant and flying, like a dragon rising into the abyss, full of mysterious Taoism.

"Refining God. Returning to the Void. The Yuan Shen is the ruin of the Tao. There are nine steps in the Nine Heavens Road! There are three steps under the Immortal Sect. The Return to the Void is the only one..."

After a long time, Zhao Sheng rubbed his brow with his hand and slowly put down the silk book in his hand with a tired look on his face, seemingly consuming a lot of energy.

He dug out this silk book from the Sumeru Precepts. The book records many secrets of spiritual practice. Unfortunately, the text in this book is extremely obscure and difficult to understand. It looks like a variation of the dragon seal and the phoenix seal script, but it is better than the dragon seal script. Zhang Feng Seal Script is more clumsy and abstract, and has a shadow of three-dimensional Immortal Seal Script on the font.

Comparing the immortal seal characters on "Big and Small Ruyi Immortal Techniques", it took Zhao Sheng nearly two years to finish reading this mysterious silk book called "Nine Steps of the Great Dao".

He only read 30% of the text, and the remaining 70% of the text was all "guessed" based on the context.

In Zhao Sheng's view, the so-called "nine steps of the great road" actually represent the degree of control that the immortal cultivator has over the laws of the great road he cultivates!

This silk book may have been written by a true immortal. The book summarizes the cultivation of those below the true immortal as "the three ordinary levels, the three tribulations of the soul, and the most difficult three steps of immortality."

There is no need to say much about the three mortal realms, but the three tribulations of the Yuanshen refer to the three realms of Golden Elixir, Nascent Soul, and Divine Transformation!

The three steps of immortality correspond to the three realms of returning to emptiness, integrating into one body, and overcoming tribulation!

Since returning to the virtual world, immortal cultivators are known as "half-immortals". They have begun to get rid of the shackles of longevity. Their life spans can easily be tens of thousands of years, and almost all of them are ten thousand year old monsters!

According to the book, the three steps to immortality actually correspond to the first three steps of the "Nine Steps to the Great Way."

Only those who successfully take the first step to become immortals can be called half-immortals who return to the void!

If you can take the ninth step, you will be able to dominate the world and be named the "Supreme Taoist Ancestor"!

Not to mention the Taoist ancestor who is unique in all time, just talking about the first step of the Tao is full of difficulties and dangers, and only one of the True Monarchs who can take the first step successfully is rare!

Since he could not understand most of the contents in the silk book, Zhao Sheng had little understanding of how the nine steps of the Great Dao were divided.

However, based on his own understanding, he compares cultivating immortals to practicing martial arts. The nine steps of the great road can be regarded as the ninth level of martial arts, which are beginners, first glimpses of the door, entry into the hall, slight success, mastery, proficiency, perfection, return to nature, and eternity. only.

If the Half-Immortal Returning to the Void can be said to have glimpsed the Great Dao for the first time, then the True Monarch of Transformation God might not have even seen the shadow of the Great Dao. He could only barely perceive the law fluctuations emanating from the Dao, and then try his best to adjust his own mana and energy. God's "frequency" is constantly approaching and conforming to the lawful fluctuations of the great road we cultivate.

Until the "fluctuation" between the two reaches a certain height, the True Monarch of Transformation God can touch the threshold of returning to the void. As for whether he can successfully survive the catastrophe, it depends on personal fate and luck!

The first step of the nine steps of the great road is marked by the initial mutual interaction between the physical body and the soul, reaching the level of the physical body traveling in the virtual world on the first day.

Zhao Sheng also vaguely saw in the book that the nine steps of the great road mentioned by the great master who wrote the book seemed to be inseparable from the nine heavens in the virtual world!

He probably recognized three of the so-called "Nine Heavens of the Virtual Realm", namely the "First Dark Heaven", the "Second Divine Palace Heaven", and the "Seventh Forgotten Heaven", but he couldn't understand the others at all!

And the reason why he could recognize the name of "Seventh Forgotten Heaven" was because of the great sage Jinyang!

This extremely unlucky boss still has a few "thoughts" lingering in oblivion!

…

Half a year later, three hundred miles north of Shenxufang, there was a meteorite group in the sky.

Zhao Sheng stood proudly in mid-air with his feet on the fire lotus.

In front of him, a three-eyed green demonic python as big as a giant elephant was spitting out a letter. The vertical pupil in the center of its forehead was flashing with fire, staring at him angrily.

There were burn marks all over its body, and the lower half of the python's body exuded a strong smell of meat, as if it had been roasted!

"Woo"

The three-eyed green demon python let out a low cry, opened its mouth, and a ball of green poisonous slurry spurted out, turning into a large cloud of venom in mid-air, and shrouded Zhao Sheng.

Zhao Sheng did not dodge or dodge, but with just a slight movement of his mind, he saw a flash of fire in mid-air, followed by a faint wave of indistinct waves.

In the next second, all the venom disappeared. At the same time, the demon python suddenly screamed miserably, and invisible flames shot up from its body, burning it and rolling around randomly, but it could never escape from the limited space.

Zhao Sheng frowned slightly when he saw this scene. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Fangshi. He then increased the "frequency" of the soul by 30%. In an instant, he saw that the invisible flames on the demon python turned into a raging fire. Then he burned a golden elixir realm demon python into ashes.

At this moment, a tall figure suddenly appeared in the void not far away.

Zhao Sheng looked up and, as expected, Mr. Xiao Da was here!

"Haha! Brother Zhao, Xiao has brought all the things you asked for! Please order some."

With that said, the man stretched out his hand and threw out a Nakong Seal!

Zhao Sheng's eyes flashed, and he let out a ray of spiritual thought and penetrated it. A satisfied smile soon appeared on his face.

There are many heads of ten great monks in the late Nascent Soul stage, and half of them even come from the Tiandao Sect.

Mr. Xiao Da really knows how to behave and knows very well who his biggest enemy is.

boom!

Zhao Sheng flicked out a wave of fire, burning the Nakong Seal and the head inside with one blow, and then said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, you really acted quickly! In just two years, you managed to accomplish such a big thing. It's rare, it's rare. !”

Mr. Xiao Da looked in awe and said extremely modestly: "Compared to the shocking feats Brother Zhao has done, what I have done is simply not worth mentioning."

Zhao Sheng smiled and did not give any explanation, but got down to business: "Since Fellow Daoist Xiao has completed the task, Zhao should give you an explanation! I wonder when Fellow Daoist Xiao will choose to leave for the Seven Stars Spiritual Realm?"

Mr. Xiao Da was overjoyed when he heard this, and then said with a wry smile: "It's best to leave now! To be honest with Brother Zhao, Xiao is like a lost dog now, and he is being chased and killed very miserably!"

"Haha, Mr. Xiao Da is very funny! Forget it, let's set off now!" Zhao Sheng chuckled.

"Okay! Then I'll ask Brother Zhao to lead the way!" Mr. Xiao Da said with a happy face and cupped his hands.

Um,

Zhao Sheng nodded, took out the Seven Stars Ruyi from the Sumeru Ring, and then recited the incantation and kneading formula with great skill to inspire the guiding star light.

Then, the two of them followed the guiding starlight toward the depths of the Meteor Sea, quickly disappeared behind the vast swarm of meteorites.

In just over twenty days, Zhao Sheng and the two found the Seven Star Spiritual Realm located in the Black Abyss Domain.

There is no need to go into details about what happens next!

However, it is worth mentioning that Mr. Xiao Da chose the Black Sand Realm among the seven outer realms. This person actually wanted to go with Goddess Tianque. I wonder if it was some kind of coincidence!

Zhao Sheng did not stay in the spiritual realm for a long time. After fertilizing the devil fungus tree, he left the spiritual realm and returned to Shenxufang.

…

Another year has passed.

One day, the old lady came to him quietly.

In the living room of the cave, Zhao Sheng and Grandma Si took their seats. At this time, a jade box was placed in front of Zhao Sheng.

He stretched out his hand to remove the seal on the box, opened the lid to take a look, then closed the lid again with a smile, nodded and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the three of you to move so fast! I thought that old monster Xian Yang had been free for more than two thousand years, and now But he died in the hands of three people. It seems that this person is responsible for his own evil, and he will not survive! I am very satisfied!"

"Oh, it's good that Fellow Daoist Zhao is satisfied! It's just that the last two may require Fellow Daoist to wait patiently for a long time. After all, the transformed gods are easy to be injured and difficult to kill, so the three of us still need to plan carefully for a long time."

Zhao Sheng looked calm: "Zhao, don't be in a hurry, just let the three of you do what you want."

Seeing that Zhao Sheng was refusing guests, Grandma Shi's face trembled slightly. She seemed to have made up her mind and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhao, have you ever heard of the Prisoner's Palace?"

Hearing this, Zhao Sheng raised his eyebrows, showing a hint of surprise, and muttered: "The Prisoner's Palace! I also know a thing or two about it. Rumor has it that this palace is used to imprison the Son of the Blood God."

"Haha, fellow Taoists only know one thing but not the other! Imprisoning the Son of Blood God is one of them, but the most important thing is to refine the essence of the soul! This thing is also known as the Transformation Pill! I believe fellow Taoists also know the magical effect of this pill!"

"God Transformation Pill?"

When Zhao Sheng heard this, his expression did not change, but thoughts began to swirl in his heart.

The name of the Transformation Pill was something he had deeply remembered while reading many related books.

The reason why Zhao Shenghui was deeply impressed was that this elixir was not only one of the rare treasures in the Netherworld that could assist in breaking through the transformation into a god, but it was also of great use to the True Monarch who transformed into a god.

He didn't know the source of the God-Transforming Pill before, but now he knew it from his grandmother-in-law.

"Of course I have heard of the name of the God Transformation Pill, but my mother-in-law suddenly mentioned it. Could it be that there is still the essence of the soul in this Prisoner's Palace?" Zhao Sheng looked at his mother-in-law and asked.

"Fellow Taoist is right." Grandma Shi nodded.

"If mother-in-law has anything to say, you might as well say it directly." Zhao Sheng was silent for a moment and said.

The man's expression didn't look like he was lying, but she must have had another purpose in telling him this, and she definitely didn't want to give him the news about the God Transformation Pill in vain.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao is really quick to talk, and I can tell you the truth. The old lady recently learned that a certain prisoner's palace is about to be born, and she is planning to go there this time, but the deep sea spirit guarding the prisoner's palace is really difficult to deal with.

The old woman hopes that fellow Taoists can help me. After everything is done, how about you and I share half of the essence? "Grandma Shi smiled.

Zhao Sheng looked at this person, his expression unchanged and he didn't speak.

The old lady looked at him with a smile, seemingly very calm.

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng said in a deep voice: "Why would my mother-in-law abandon Dongxun and Sanhuang colleagues and ask me for help instead?"

"Haha, those two are cowards and weak in strength, how can they be compared with fellow Taoists." Grandma Shi said.

Zhao Sheng nodded slightly and said, "Well, this matter is too sudden. How about letting me think about it for a while?"

"sure!"
