Longevity begins with Orion

Chapter 250 248. Crossing eastward! Father and Son (big chapter-please subscribe)

Because of the existence of "Sophon Crow" Xiao Lu, Li Yuan finally cast his sights on the fairyland next door.

He began to listen to the information from Xiaolu day by day.

The fruit planted by humans, the ghost grass, and the candle flower are the three treasures hidden in the Ancient Palace of Life, the Ancient Palace of Taiyin, and the Ancient Palace of the Sun.

Those who get one of them will have great luck, and there will be no obstacles in the cultivation of human soul, earth soul, and heaven soul.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a god.

At the beginning, Li Yuan felt that his talent was the power of the human race fruit, after all, it was too similar.

But as he listened, he felt more and more that his "talent" was too weak?

After all, the message Xiao Yan sent back said that if you eat the "human race fruit", you can truly realize hundreds of things in one day, and you will suddenly realize the powerful power even if you raise your hands and feet.

Once you realize it, you can master it.

For ordinary people, the path of cultivation is as difficult as climbing to the sky, but for those who have swallowed the "fruit of human race", it is an extremely smooth road.

This is completely inconsistent with Li Yuan's own understanding.

Because he himself knows that although his practice is much more convenient than ordinary people, it is definitely not to the point where "you can suddenly realize powerful power by raising your hands and feet."

Far from there!

That means that the ancient book records are either exaggerated, and this requires understanding the origin of the ancient book and who actually wrote it. However, it has been so long that it is difficult to figure out;

Either his "talent" is not actually a "human race fruit", which is more in line with his self-perception.

He even heard about the three ancient palaces from Xiaolu. And the three ancient palaces have not been born for at least 30,000 years. How could he, a time traveler, eat the "human race fruit" in the Ancient Palace of Life in advance?

However, are there two "talents" with very similar effects in this world?

This is another mystery to Li Yuan.

He suddenly thought of what he saw in Sister Yan's evil mirror that day, and fell into a long thought.

The core "news" of the East China Sea Fairyland has become the exploration of the ancient palace that was born out of the world.

Li Ping'an became the favorite of Taixuan Sect because his clone could become an "independent third grade".

While Taixuanzong was searching for the hidden god of the West, he was "watering" Li Ping'an with treasures of heaven and earth, hoping that he would send more clones to explore the reality of the ancient palace as much as possible.

The Five Spirits Alliance does not have a "natural talent" freak like Li Ping'an, but they do have expensive puppets, which are the masterpieces of the Puppet Spirit Sect, one of the Five Spirits. The principles of those puppets are not clear. , but its own strength has reached the half-step third level, and with some of its own specialties, it can be explored.

Because Li Ping'an became important, the entire outside force also benefited from this.

The core area of ​​Lingzhen also began to slowly allow a few outsiders to enter.

The reason why Taixuanzong and the Five Spirits Alliance dared to test for a long time instead of entering in a hurry is because they found that the unknown ancient palace that appeared was becoming more and more stable.

The "shattered void"-like black hole around the ancient palace made them realize that this world was indeed a world with two layers, "exterior and inner", as recorded in ancient books.

The world on the surface is their world.

The world inside is shattered, but this is normal, because this kind of fragmentation is in line with the "view of creation" they know.

Chaos gives birth to yin and yang, and yin and yang give birth to external objects.

And if Yin and Yang merge again, it will be a forced reversal, and all things will be annihilated. But the closer you get to the original chaos, the more powerful you will be able to see, and you will have unprecedented opportunities.

The ancient palace is one of these opportunities.

This is the purpose of their efforts to bring their ancestral land into a "Yin-Yang Harmony".

Then, this "inner world" is naturally the "sleeping" chaos.

In the evolution of heaven and earth, there are always some chaotic things sleeping somewhere, but they have never been annihilated in the world due to the creation of all things by Yin and Yang. This is the case with the three ancient temples.

This wave is actually a "reappearance of the past", a "digging and digging in time and space, and then digging out those terrible antiques from the past."

The broken void is certainly terrifying, and the strong gravitational force generated on it is such that even a fourth-grade person cannot fly through it.

Just passing through the sky above it will be forcibly sucked in, and no bones will be left.

At this time, the "increasing stability" of the ancient palace is reflected in the healing of the "shattered void".

The scope of the black cave is getting smaller and smaller, but this unknown ancient palace has not retreated to the "inner world". On the contrary, it has slowly become stable, and there is a feeling that it has grown from the "inner world" to the "outer world".

In this process, the super large amount of spiritual energy became the price of "filling the black hole".

When the spiritual energy is strong enough, it will appear purple.

Therefore, the disciples who practice in the East China Sea Immortal Domain, as well as the people of those small mortal countries, can often see the purple energy stretching across the eastern sky, but it is quickly annihilated.

This kind of consumption is extremely huge, and it would definitely not be possible in the past, but it is no problem now, because the spiritual energy of the East China Sea Immortal Territory is soaring at an exaggerated speed.

The following year

The twelfth lunar month.

Yujing, the imperial palace.

Prince Ji Yong and Second Prince Ji He were walking on the road between the yellow walls to pay their respects to their father.

These two people do not possess as terrifying power as the Human Emperor, they are just warriors with average qualifications.

Now, both of them are nineteen, and they have reached the fifth level almost at the same time. The two of them are naturally practicing the techniques left by the Ji family of the royal family.

After all, the Human Emperor has the blood of the Ji family, so of course he will not let his descendants practice other methods.

Queen Ying and Concubine He also quietly asked the Human Emperor, what if it breaks after the fourth rank?

The Human Emperor only replied with three words, "It can't be broken." No matter how much more he said, he didn't explain it.

The nineteen-year-old fifth-grade man, who was a monster that shocked the world in the past, is considered a genius now, but Ji Yong and Ji He only reached such a level under the cultivation of the royal family's top resources. There's really nothing to praise.

Ji Yong is honest and honest, while Ji He is romantic. Standing together, the two of them have distinct personalities.

But along the way, the two of them were exactly the same, that is, they were trembling with fear.

While walking through the Imperial City Avenue, the two of them saw that an entire family of officials had been executed, and the bricks and tiles at the market entrance were filled with blood.

This is the first time this has happened.

The two of them thought about it and came to the palace gate.

In the hall, the light was dim, and the thirty-six-year-old Emperor looked like a statue of a demon, sitting on a nine-dragon chair with his chin in his hands and meditating.

Thirty-six years old is only the "infancy period" for even the crown prince and the second prince, because their life span has already reached three hundred years, which is only about one-tenth of the life span, not to mention the future. They will also enter the fourth level and have a lifespan of five hundred years.

But the Human Emperor is inexplicably old.

The two of them hurriedly came forward to say hello.

"My son Ji Yong is here to see my father."

"My son, Ji He, is here to see my father."

With that said, the two of them took out the scrolls and handed them out respectfully.

This book is the homework they have done recently, and it is what the Emperor ordered them to finish writing.

Feng Yun, the chamberlain on one side, did not dare to take it directly, but carefully glanced at the sleeping Human Emperor.

The atmosphere was extremely depressing.

The air seemed to be frozen.

The second prince, Prince He, maintained the posture of holding the scroll with both hands and did not dare to move.

But at this moment, a figure came rushing outside the door, and his voice floated far away in the wind.

"Brother Emperor, Brother Emperor~~"

A young and beautiful girl ran in from outside.

Her voice also tore through the frozen air at this moment.

Feng Yun quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

The Human Emperor finally opened his eyes. He looked across the Prince River at the girl in the distance and said with a smile, "It's Xiao Zhen."

The girl ran to the steps and saluted: "See you, Your Majesty!"

Then he continued like a machine gun: "Today is His Majesty's birthday, so I specially made His Majesty's favorite snacks."

After saying that, she magically took out a lunch box from behind, and said with a smile: "It's Peach Blossom Cake."

The prince, the second prince, and even Feng Yun were stunned.

Why does Your Majesty like to eat peach blossom cakes?

The Human Emperor smiled and said, "Come to me."

Li Zhen ran over and placed the lunch box on the dragon chair.

The Human Emperor actually took a piece and started eating it.

He can ignore any etiquette, because no one in this land can do anything to him.

He grabbed the peach blossom cake and took a bite. His body froze suddenly, and then he ate the whole cake with a smile.

This was not done by Xiao Zhen at all, but by Queen Mother Xie.

Queen Mother Xie used to like to make peach blossom cakes for her father, the emperor, but she hasn't done it for a long time, and as the emperor, she hasn't eaten it for a long time.

Obviously, it was Xiao Zhen who pestered the Queen Mother to cook in person, and then she got this piece of cake.

Thoughts are rare

"Is it delicious?" Li Zhen asked with his hands behind his back and his head.

The Human Emperor completely ignored the other people in the palace and asked with a smile: "What reward do you want?"

Li Zhen muttered: "Your Majesty, kill the corrupt official of the Ma family if you want, but the Gao family is a little unjust."

The Ma family was the family that the prince and the second prince saw being interrogated and executed at Caishikou when they arrived.

The Gao family is the family that will be asked to kill tomorrow.

The former's method of death was to withhold some disaster relief food and was discovered.

Nowadays, Zhongjing is prosperous, but outside Zhongjing, there is Nuanxue's method of replenishing the sky and the earth, but it is no longer able to save the barren farmland.

You know, in the past there were only ghost areas in various places, but now ghost areas are unified all over the world, and more and more meat fields are springing up.

The meat fields empowered warriors, but took away the fertility of farmland.

Warriors can eat meat from the meat fields, but ordinary people cannot bear the rich blood in the meat of these monster beasts.

Although there are many warriors in Zhongjing, they have gathered almost all the talents in the world.

But in a family, there are only a few people who can awaken the shadow blood.

The rest, of course, must be eaten.

Nowadays, there are even exaggerated rumors circulating outside China and Beijing that "food is better than gold and silver."

As an official responsible for the transportation of disaster relief grains, he did not think about himself, but also his family. After thinking that nothing would happen, he withheld "a little bit" of the disaster relief grains and stored them in his own granary.

But just a little bit of it made the emperor furious, and the whole family was ordered to be executed.

The latter was convicted because of his words, and it was because of the Ma family's affairs.

When the Gao family came to remonstrate, they only said that the Ma family's crime would not lead to death, and it might have an impact on His Majesty's reputation. Then they hinted that if they really wanted to punish them, they might be able to use a more secretive method instead of killing people at the food market with great fanfare. The whole clan.

To be honest, what the Gao family said was not a treasonous statement, but rather a sincere thought for the dynasty. After all, since the emperor came to power, there has never been a case of killing a family of high-ranking officials.

If so, it would be a first.

Once this happens, all high-ranking officials and all aristocratic families will become "awe" of the Human Emperor.

Of course the Human Emperor doesn't care, but now, many high-level people are vaguely aware that the Human Emperor may not live long.

The Human Emperor is certainly fearless, but what about the Queen?

Even if the iron-blooded king's tyranny will not be repaid in this life, it will be repaid after death.

The world is in turmoil, and if the center of power is shaken again, it may not be a good thing.

Then

The Gao family members who came to remonstrate were ordered by the Emperor to confiscate their homes and exterminate their clan.

Apparently, many families quietly approached the Zhongjing Princess to help intercede.

And Princess Zhongjing really came.

That's what happened.

At this moment, when the Human Emperor heard the words, he instantly understood the cause and effect. This time he did not agree immediately.

He has seen mountains of bones outside Zhongjing, and hell on earth outside Zhongjing;

And I know that the cause of everything is in the clouds that are still merging under my feet;

He looked forward to the arrival of the human race's variable, and then supported that variable to see if he could create an eternal foundation, but he did not get anything. There was no variable at all.

His head hurt more and more, and sometimes he couldn't even wake up. His emotions became more and more extreme, and he hated officials who dared to withhold disaster relief.

Because he knew that a little deduction from that official would bring about countless imitations, as well as countless corpses and tragedies that should not have happened.

So whenever there is an opening, he will block it; whenever someone dares to do it, he will dare to kill; anyone who pleads for mercy will be killed. Not only will he kill, but he will kill openly and openly, so that everyone can see it, so that everyone can Don't dare to do it again.

But, will anyone really be grateful to him?

Will not.

Aristocratic families don't know how to do it, and officials don't know how to do it.

Will the people do it?

Neither do the common people.

The people will only know about natural and man-made disasters and the emperor's tyranny.

But so what?

But he did not tell the girl in front of him this. Instead, he remained silent for a long time in the eyes of outsiders, and then he lovingly rubbed Princess Zhongjing's head and said, "Promise."

As soon as these two words were spoken, His Highness the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, and Feng Yun next to him all secretly took a deep breath of cold air and were so shocked that they could hardly speak.

After today, families all over the world know who to call if something goes wrong.

Your Majesty, this is to make the whole world owe this great aunt.

Also, where can Princess Zhongjing go without being called "Little Bodhisattva"?

The Human Emperor agreed because he knew one thing.

Queen Mother Xie and Aunt Yu will conceal their identities this year and quietly go to the East China Sea Fairyland to practice martial arts after the Xie family.

But the East China Sea side seems to have already made arrangements.

Empress Dowager Xie did not hide it from the emperor, she only said that that person had arrangements, and even that person had already found the hidden sect of the Xie family in the East China Sea Immortal Domain, and had established contact with him.

The Human Emperor naturally believed in that person's methods.

He had no reason to stop his biological mother.

But he also knew that the cultivation of the Immortal Seed might be very long, so long that once he leaves, he will never see you again.

His condition is deteriorating, and he doesn't know if he will be able to see his biological mother again next time.

Even if his biological mother doesn't like him, even if he can no longer express his affection to her, this is his biological mother after all. How can a mother not worry about leaving her son?

Fortunately, the Human Emperor had already made arrangements in the Immortal Realm. Although he was not as exaggerated as Li Yuan, he secretly sent many people there to join various major sects.

The Human Emperor originally wanted to "open an eye and broaden his horizons" overseas, but now that his mother has passed, he decided to give all these powers to her.

The Queen Mother thanked her for accepting it calmly.

But Xiaozhen will not follow the Xie sisters to the East China Sea.

The East China Sea is not a place suitable for mortals to live;

On the contrary, Zhongjing is the place that can give Xiaozhen first glory and wealth.

Xiaozhen and the Human Emperor are very different, because one of them cannot practice, but the other is the best in the world.

But the two of them are the same, because neither of them will live very long.

With such a relative, who would the Emperor dote on if he didn't dote on her?

What's more, he also began to realize that something was wrong with him, so he always looked forward to having such a relative to help him "stop from the cliff" so that he would not fall into the abyss and completely lose control.

mid-year.

Xiao Zhen knew that her mother was leaving.

But Xiaozhen had grown up. He only cried for a while, but accepted the arrangement.

East China Sea.

Li Ping'an sent clones into the mysterious ancient temple again and again to explore, and then was severely injured again and again, and was healed by hot spring grass again and again.

He gradually became at the side of the Muxuanmen Sect Master when he came in and out, and the Muxuanmen Sect Master often looked at the mysterious ancient palace in the distance with other Sect Masters and Sect Masters, thinking about how to enter.

Even if the other elders dispersed, these four sect leaders and that sect leader would often keep Li Pingan by their side.

Suddenly, Li Ping'an seemed to have become the sixth most powerful person in Taixuan Sect.

After seeing Li Ping'an's potential and hard work, Tai Xuanzong did not treat him badly and gave him the best in everything.

Li Ping'an also became a rookie in the East China Sea Immortal Domain in one fell swoop, both in terms of power and strength.

And Li Ping'an used his own influence to establish connections everywhere, and used his identity as the leader of the outsiders to send outsiders safely to various places.

Of course, he was also testing, paving the way for the arrival of Liu Niang and Qi Niang in the future.

At the end of last year, he finally found and opened the way to "the hidden sect corresponding to the Xie family".

The hidden force corresponding to the Xie family is called "Tianfeng Sect".

Cuiyun Mountain and Tianfeng Sect are also quite well-known hidden forces.

Li Ping'an sent a "fifth-grade female disciple of the Xie family" who was used to explore the way to the Tianfeng Sect, and then deliberately made friends with this sect.

The Tianfeng Sect was also happy to make friends with this rookie who could often enter the mysterious ancient palace.

In March this year, Li Pingan even got married to this Tianfeng Sect.

His eldest son Li Shen will marry a descendant of the Tianfeng Sect's leader, and his eldest daughter Li Waner will marry a rising star of the Tianfeng Sect.

It was precisely because of these many things that Li Yuan finally decided to let Sister Xie Wei go.

No one can guarantee everything, but the path of spiritual cultivation cannot stop. After all, not everyone is like him.

And if Xie Wei and Xie Yu leave, Xiao Zhen will be alone.

But Xiaozhen is already twenty.

The people seeking marriage could already circle the palace more than a dozen times.

Which family doesn't want to marry this little Bodhisattva back?

If you get married now, if nothing else, at least it will be a life-saving talisman for you.

Li Yuan just watched silently.

Xiaozhen has her own life, and it's actually good for him to see her like this.

The high railings let in the bleak autumn wind.

A lonely guest leans on the railing, and a crow stands on the wine table.

The crow's convergence technique has become more and more powerful, and now it has reached the point where "as long as a third-level person is not staring at it, it will never notice anything abnormal about it."

Li Yuan looked at the busy scene of people coming and going in front of Xie's house on the crowded road, but he smiled faintly, sighed again, and took a sip of wine.

Little Crow raised his paw and pressed Li Yuan's hand.

Li Yuan stopped drinking and touched the little crow's head with his backhand.

Xiao Zhen is different from Xiao Lu. She deserves to have a short but complete life.

However, if the Human Emperor goes, who will protect Xiao Zhen?

Li Yuan was thinking about this issue, and so was the Human Emperor.

He has become more and more violent this year. Although he doesn't kill every clan, he always kills a few people inadvertently.

He felt more and more that his condition was getting worse and worse.

Mo Yiwei!

The Human Emperor thought of this name.

After all, Mo Yiwei was loyal to him, and he had also checked Zhao Chunxin's background. He was an old man from Wendao Palace, and might even have interacted with his father.

But he quickly rejected it.

Because Mo Yiwei helped him kill people and monitor the court, he also began to offend many people.

Ever since, the Human Emperor planned to train dead soldiers, but not for himself, but for Xiao Zhen.

He named this dead soldier "Tianluo".

It would be quite easy for the Human Emperor to cultivate dead soldiers.

In fact, in this land, except for being unable to prevent the coming of eternal night, there is nothing he can do.

Late winter.

The end of the year is approaching.

The biennial Fairyland Sky Boat Festival is coming.

Empress Dowager Xie and Xie Yu were wrapped in warm fur cloaks, carrying sword cases on their backs, and rushed to the Moon River Beach together with many fifth- and even fourth-grade masters.

The Human Emperor did not go to see him off, but just stood in an uninhabited corner of the Zhongjing city wall at some point and watched until he could no longer see her before returning.

The Human Emperor refused to send it away because he knew that if he went, Queen Mother Xie would not be able to go to the East China Sea.

As long as he leaves the imperial capital, the world will be in turmoil, the storm will gather, and the empty boat in the East China Sea Fairyland will not dare to dock again.

On the other side, the person coming from Taixuanzong this time was indeed Li Pingan.

Compared with the last time, Li Pingan has a lot more gray hair this time.

This kind of white hair should not be possessed by a third-level powerhouse, but there may be too many dead clones, and the soul is constantly injured and recovered, so the hair is almost gray.

Li Ping'an arrived here half a month in advance as usual, and Yao Jue went to Yuehe Beach for a walk as usual.

But this time, she brought not only Little Crow, but also a man——Li Yuan.

The pretty long-legged female cultivator threw herself into Li Yuan's arms.

But Li Pingan looked at Li Yuan blankly from a distance.

My father's appearance has not changed at all compared to before.

His father was like this when he was a child.

He became a teenager, as did his father.

He thought his father died forging a soldier, but when he saw him again, his father was still like this.

This time, he went through thousands of sailings and came back, but his father was still the same.

It seems that the mountains and rivers have changed, the world has changed, but my father has not changed at all.

Compared to his teenage father, Elder Li, who has a lot of gray hair, is actually more like his father. At least if you ask someone outside to ask "who is the father?", that person will say that he is the father.

"I've met my father." Li Ping'an saluted silently.

Li Yuan looked at him and said softly: "You have grown up."

Just four words contain a lot of history.

Li Ping'an's angular face showed a smile: "I have never been able to say thank you to you personally.

After my son went out, I realized how well you protected me in the past, and how much effort you put into sending me to the ship to the fairyland. "

Li Yuan suddenly smiled and said: "Let's practice our skills and see if we can make any progress?"

Li Pingan smiled and nodded.

On the side, Yao Jue hurriedly reminded: "Master, Elder Li is very powerful now, you can't be careless."

She still uses the old title because she still owes a wedding.

Li Yuan smiled and shouted: "Elder Li, please give in."

Li Pingan laughed loudly and said, "Father asked me to be the one."

After that, on the bank of the East China Sea, the father and son started fighting.

The waves of the sea hum in the distance, and the moonlight rises and sets with the tide.

Li Ping'an's body flashed, and there was one him, two him, three him, ten him, twenty him.

In the past, his vitality would be severely damaged even if he had ten, but now he can regard "twenty" as the norm.

He reminded: "Father, each of my clones can be transformed into a third-level clone. Although it will be weaker than my main body, the number is enough to crush the opponent."

Li Yuan looked solemn and said: "Come on."

He originally wanted to torture Li Pingan, but after knowing through Little Crow how desperate and crazy Li Pingan was in the fairyland, he had given up this idea.

Son, there is no need to be suppressed anymore.

He needs to be recognized.

Therefore, Li Yuan planned to make himself a "stepping stone" for his son's ideas.

He wanted to fulfill his son, even if it was a lie.

However, if he does not lie, who else in this land can get an advantage from him besides the Human Emperor?

Ever since, the father-son war began.

The gardens were in full bloom, and countless third-level forces attacked Li Yuan.

Li Yuan also kept attacking, destroying one garden and two gardens.

He kept cutting.

But Li Ping'an is also extremely serious.

He hopes his efforts will come to an end.

Finally, when Li Yuan reached the eighteenth garden, Li Yuan failed to follow up and was directly approached by the remaining Li Ping'an. Hundreds of vines were like long knives, together with Li Ping'an's knife. Put it on Li Yuan's neck.

After a brief moment of astonishment, Li Yuan burst into laughter and said, "I lose, I lose!"

Li Pingan put away the knife. At this moment, he looked up to the sky and took a deep breath. He felt that a certain "demon" that had been blocked in his heart for many years was broken and shattered.

He knelt down, kowtowed three times to Li Yuan respectfully, and said, "Thank you, father, for your support."

Li Yuan helped him up and said: "It seems that dad will find time to go to Donghai to further his studies. This time, I really didn't hold back. You have really grown up and become more powerful."

Li Ping'an smiled and said, "I know it was dad who gave in."

Li Yuan understood. It was not that his son really thought he had given up, but that his son was giving him a step down. This was because he had really grown up.

He was in a good mood and said, "Let's go, let's go. There's still some time until the empty boat docks. Let's go get a few drinks together."

Li Ping'an also smiled and said: "Okay! Today, I will drink double the amount that dad drinks!"

The long-lost pride once again arose in the heart of Elder Li, who was well versed in the world.

It's a pity that the white hair on the temples is dancing in the night wind.

Looking back, I am no longer a young man.
