Chapter 847: All parties are shocked, the material of the family ruin (4000)

The majestic Candle Dragon’s body is surrounded by black and white flames, with long flaming hair fluttering freely and its long tail rolling. Endless spiritual evil spirits gather into clouds, penetrating the vast universe. As the clouds rotate, they transform into ‘chaos and two poles’, giving rise to the magical Three Yuan, Four Symbols, Five Elements and Eight Diagrams.

Lord Xitian reached into the void with one hand, grasped the Haotian Seal, and carried the Yin and Yang Qi to collide with a fire claw that attacked from the direction of the Demon Kingdom; with the other hand, he grasped the Mingjing Seal, transformed into the Spirit Realm of Creation, and completely blocked the endless brilliance that penetrated from the direction of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation.

Taixu was shaking, and the entire Silver Mountain hub was shaking violently. It was manifested on the ground that the entire earth seemed to be grabbed by the edges on both sides and shaking violently. The extremely solid Silver Mountain base was naturally not damaged at all, but the endless ice and frost covering the Silver Mountain were all blown away, and the inner side of the entire cave turned into a white world of ice and snow. A magnitude 10 earthquake and a super storm swept in.

For a moment, the big hands of both parties were cut off by the sudden divine power. No matter it was the Tianyuan human race or the Tianyuan demons, they all fell into a state of shutdown for a short time. No matter whether it was the Tianjun Zhenjun or the little demon refining Qi, the thoughts that emerged in their hearts were surprisingly consistent.

——Who is this Heavenly Lord? Where did he come from?
And, most importantly…

——How come he is cultivating the path of Immortality? !
Until now, the cave was in chaos, and only the area around the immortal Zhulong was safe.

But a stable current situation does not mean inner stability.

“The Way of Feathering? Why is it the Way of Feathering?!”

Although the Zhulong battle armor is very much in the style of the Huaixu Realm, and is inconsistent with the practical and mechanical appearance of the Tianyuan Realm, the vision of the cultivators is enough to go beyond the artistic decoration and see the true essence of the armor – there is no doubt that this body of the Great Dao that uses many spiritual materials to replace the flesh, melts the true meaning of heaven and earth, and transforms its own body into a part of the laws of heaven and earth is undoubtedly the Tianji battle armor of the Yuhua Dao!

Moreover, it is an unprecedented and unheard-of Daotai-level Feathered Battle Armor!

“How can this be!”

Even the younger generation like Chen Yunfei could fully understand the absurdity of this at this moment: “Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!”

“In the entire Tianyuan Realm, all the spiritual objects and materials that can carry the Nascent Soul’s divine thoughts and Daotai’s principles have long been extinct!”

[How is this possible? That is, that is… the core branch taken from the still alive and fully developed ‘Jianmu’?! ]

But the ones who were really shocked to the point of almost fainting were those well-informed people who, in theory, would never be shocked. They took a deep breath and showed expressions that were extremely damaging to the dignity of the strong and making them lose face and feel like they were being demoted – because they could really see how outrageous this Zhulong battle armor was.

Especially the leader of the Four Cities Competition, Great Master Jingzhe, who was staring at the Zhulong Battle Armor with his eyes fixed on it. His mind was like a storm, with a series of thoughts like “impossible”, “fake! illusion!” and “but this is real!”. He could not believe what he had seen, and was even heartbroken: [Where did it come from? Where did it come from? Why is there a living Jianmu? ]

[If there really is a living Jianmu, then our goal… Damn it, why did we break off the branches of Jianmu! There are other ways to remove the materials! Why did we harm Jianmu! ]

In other words, An Jing couldn’t hear it. If he had heard it, he would have smiled in his heart: Jinyuantian can even give you two new pieces of the Haotian Mirror fragment that theoretically only has one piece, so what’s the big deal about the Jianmu branch?
In fact, An Jing had already seriously suspected in his heart that no matter whether it was the fragments of the Haotian Mirror or the branches of Jianmu, they were all made from a brand new piece and then smashed and broken… otherwise there was no reason to produce these materials!
[With such a spiritual material, it is actually possible to create a Heavenly Secret Dao Embryo Battle Armor? ]

At this moment, Lord Shangyuan’s hands also began to tremble.

The immortal body is a new way of advancement that bypasses the support of heaven and earth and allows him and True Lord Jingzhe, who have long been qualified to be Dao fetuses but are trapped in the realm of great True Lords due to lack of support from heaven and earth, to advance. Logically speaking, he should have been extremely excited the moment he saw the Dao fetus’s fighting body.

Lord Shangyuan was indeed so excited that he could not control himself, but it was not because he was excited, but because he was angry at seeing this spendthrift.

[Xu Liu Zhen Li, Chong Yang Yuan Jing——and this Jian Mu branch! Any one of them, or even just half of one, I will have the confidence to build my own Daotai Battle Armor! ]

Shang Yuan closed his eyes in pain, not wanting to see the battle armor that was shining with golden light and blinding his eyes.

Whether it is the real glass produced in the chaos of Taixu, or the Yuanjing after the collapse of heaven and earth, they are all extremely rare materials that contain the fundamental laws of the Tao. Not to mention Daotai Tianjun, even Yuanshen Tianzun cannot obtain it at any time – the reason is simple, just like Daotai Tianjun may be able to advance to Yuanshen Tianzun, the same is true for magic weapons and spiritual treasures. Therefore, these spiritual materials that are born with the spiritual charm of Daotai are all raw materials that may forge Tianzun-level magic weapons!

The most direct reason why the Tianyuan Realm has not yet created a Daotai battle armor is that there has been no breakthrough in materials science. It is impossible to use Jindan Realm materials to build a Daotai-level battle armor. Daotai spiritual materials are required to build a core with sufficient strength. However, after the Tianyuan Realm Demonic Tribulation, the world had long lost the ability to breed Daotai spiritual materials. Now the only remaining part, such as a Jianmu seedling that has lost its vitality, is in the hands of the Tianzuns of the four major groups, nurturing with the power of the entire human race, hoping that it can be revived as a seed and breed more spiritual materials.

With such limited financial resources and such impoverished possessions, how could Shangyuan not be shocked, astonished and heartbroken?
Without any hesitation, he immediately notified Daotai Tianjun above and Tianzun Laozu in the depths of the cave: [Ancestor! That is a living Jianmu skeleton! ]

If we could obtain it and extract the spirituality from it, then the Jianmu seedling that had long been dead and stagnant in the flow of cosmic light and time… perhaps it could be resurrected!
However, Tianzun did not respond.

Similarly, the Holy Demon and Demon Kingdom also remained silent.

Only Yaoguang Zhenxia Tianjun, the ruler of the cave heaven and the leader of the six Tianjuns of Luofu, tried to communicate with the Zhulong god who stood between heaven and earth.

[Fellow Daoist, you and I are both human, and now we should work together to fight against the invasion of the Demon Country… The Tianxuan True Talisman held by An Xuan, the inheritor of your sect, is a must-have item for our Tianyuan Realm. If possible, we are willing to pay a huge price to exchange it.]

Zhulong Shenren turned his head slightly and looked at Zhenxia Tianjun. He whispered: [The Demon Country should be killed… But the aura on you, to be honest, is not a good thing.]

[As for the Tianxuan True Talisman, it is not my turn to speak. The future leader of our sect will choose himself.]

Future leader?
Hearing Xi Tianjun’s calm reply, even Zhen Xia Tianjun couldn’t help but be stunned at this moment, and even felt a little dizzy.

This An Xuan, no, it must be a pseudonym… Anyway, this immortal spirit root… is actually the future leader of an ancient sect that is guarded by a Heavenly Sovereign and inherited from the ancient Dao Court? !

This was absolutely true. Not to mention that the other party had no reason to lie, he could also see that the relationship between An Xuan and the Zhulong god was completely dominated by An Xuan.

The future leader? He’s almost there now! – Are you crazy? You want to throw your own leader out to this hellhole to train?
No matter how well-educated and knowledgeable he is, Zhenxia Tianjun can only say that he has never seen such a scene. Wuliang Tianzun, if An Xuan has any problems with them, wouldn’t it be a super diplomatic accident? The already difficult Tianyuan human race will not only lose an ally, but also gain an enemy?
Having said that, no matter how important the Tianxuan True Talisman was in the plan, Zhenxia Tianjun could not say anything. He could only look in the direction of An Jing. He could not help but take a few more glances at this immortal root whom he had not particularly cared about.

Then, He was stunned, and felt incredible in His heart again.

【Enlightenment?】

An Jing has attained enlightenment again? !

Actually not.

To realize the truth, one must first have a “Tao” to realize. Simply put, the minimum requirement for the Heavenly Dao to feed you is that there must be a Heavenly Dao.

However, in the ancient ruins of the immortals, there is no such thing as the Way of Heaven. Even the ‘Spirit of the Cave Heaven’ that Fu Xie mentioned, which should exist in theory, does not exist.

At this moment, An Jing was simply activating the vast and powerful pure light of Xuanyuan that he had obtained after killing the son of the Holy Demon to accelerate his own practice.

An Jing’s martial arts realm is already at a high level, and he only lacks the final [Three Elements Return to One to Ascend the Ladder to Heaven]. As for his immortal realm, he has already reached the peak. With the cultivation of both body and soul, he only lacks the final Taixu Soul Transfer, and he can advance right away and achieve the realm of Purple Mansion Immortal.

But the problem is that An Jing is still a humble person after all.

However, in the Huaixu Realm, one cannot truly cultivate the way of immortality.

Once you achieve the state of Taixu soul placement, you have achieved it. After achieving it, you must place your soul and supernatural powers between the Taixu heaven and earth. Only in this way can you practice all the time and maintain the power of a true person.

However, in the situation of the Huaixu Realm, anyone who dares to place his soul in Taixu will immediately fall into evil, or even have his soul shattered and perish on the spot. The reason why the infinite inert demonic energy is inert is that there is nothing to stimulate them, and the soul that Zifu Zhenren has placed his soul in is undoubtedly the igniter.

Unless, An Jing retracts his soul that was placed in Taixu back into his body and places it on the formation in his own body, he can temporarily fall into a lower realm.

But this won’t last long… First of all, this is actually equivalent to cutting yourself with a knife. With more blood flow, you will naturally not have high blood pressure. Relying on your own internal formation is not only of no benefit, but will also put pressure on yourself. Even martial arts will consume more energy due to the twisting of the dual cores.

Choosing this method is basically equivalent to weakening yourself. It is better not to advance and just focus on martial arts.

But An Jing was naturally unwilling to give up the advantage brought by his fellow Xianwu practitioners of stepping on his right foot with his left foot, ascending on the spot to become invincible at the same level, and challenging cross-level combat power. So he decided to try to deduce a new path while he was neither in Huaixu nor in Tianyuan, and had the protection of his ancestors and many Xuanyuan pure lights to experiment with.

First of all, in the Huaixu Realm, there is indeed a path that is extremely similar to the immortal path, and that is the “Yuanling Yankui” method of Tianji Mountain.

Because Jiang Ziji had discussed in detail with An Jing the nature of Yuanling Yankui, An Jing was actually very clear that although the way of Yuanling and the way of immortals and the way of Yuhua looked similar, they were completely different in essence.

The Yuanling Method also seems to entrust the soul to heaven and earth, and use the body of Yan Kui as the ‘Heavenly Battle Armor’, but the core is actually ‘fate’. The fate must be used to reach the heaven, and then the fate must be used to protect the soul… In simple terms, warriors regard the fate as the source of their spiritual energy for practice, and the Yuanling Method transforms the fate into an authority interface. The greater the fate given to them by heaven, the greater the energy port of the Yuanling Method.

In other words, this is completely based on the recognition of Heaven, the ‘fate immortal way’ of the essence of fate. Without fate, without the ‘heavenly authority’ brought by fate, the Yuanling method cannot be practiced at all.

But the way of immortality is independent and free, and even requires the control of heaven and earth.

The essence of the way of immortals is domination, coordination and diffusion; the essence of the way of martial arts is self, cohesion and uniqueness.

The immortal path can transcend the realm of ‘Primordial Spirit Heavenly Venerable’ and reach ‘Return to the Void Dao One’ because outside the Heavenly Dao there is Taixu, and there is endless void and chaos, and this path will never end.

And although the internal formation world of the martial arts is indeed independent of the great universe, but precisely because of this, if one wants to embark on the endless road above the sky, one must first transcend the ‘great universe’, that is, the ‘heavenly way’, or even replace it – because there is only one world after all, either the great universe of the heavenly way accommodates the small universe of man, or the small universe of man replaces the great universe.

Huaixu Tiandao, or even any other Tiandao in the world between heaven and earth, is unlikely to commit suicide, so up to now, there is no “Above Lingxiao” in martial arts.

These conflicting areas can also bring strength, just like An Jing, which has both the mechanisms of martial arts and the numerical values ​​of immortals, but it also makes advancement difficult.

An Jing is thinking about how to resolve these conflicts and make the two integrated to gain more strength.

He did think of it.

First of all, the immortal side essentially needs to maintain the connection between Taixu and the heaven and earth, and then obtain the power to dominate the heaven and earth. This cannot be done because the Huaixu Realm is filled with demonic energy. Using one’s own internal formation to contain it will lead to excessive consumption and a regression in cultivation. But what if An Jing has an independent small space, a small cave, to specifically accommodate his Taixu soul?
In this way, although it would consume a lot of energy and take a long time to exert the power of immortals in Huaixu, at least it would not reduce the combat effectiveness of martial arts, nor would it be contaminated by demonic energy!

The same applies here.

Martial arts have their limits in the Huaixu Realm, that’s because the Huaixu Heavenly Dao does not allow it, but if… in the future An Jing finds an original primordial world without Heavenly Dao, can he break through there and achieve something above Lingxiao?

Such places are actually not uncommon.

The ancient fairyland ruins and cave at An Jing’s feet meet some of the requirements.
