With the support of Zhou Yang, a powerful foreign aid, Yin Hanguang once again became the winner of the power struggle within the Great Light Immortal Palace.
When Elder Lin, who was in charge of the seventh-level immortal weapon [Eye of Light], was suppressed, the elders who lined up with him had no choice but to compromise in the face of Yin Hanguang's side who had an absolute advantage in strength.
No one wants to be buried with Yin Hanguang, whose life is approaching.
Anyway, the position of Lord of the Immortal Palace would not have fallen to them in the first place, and their promise to Elder Lin had been completed during the previous voting process.
Therefore, after Yin Hanguang's scheduled next Palace Master of the Immortal Palace swore in public that he would not hold anyone accountable for today's events, the elders of the Immortal Palace could only half-heartedly follow suit and swear to support the new Palace Lord.
When the matter was settled, Zhou Yang released Elder Lin who was suppressed in the [Qianyang Golden Pagoda] and handed it over to Yin Hanguang.
So far, his goal of coming to the far west to cultivate the world of immortality has basically been achieved.
After receiving Elder Lin, Yin Hanguang also took out a jade book and handed it to him: "This is an alliance letter signed by Yin and Fellow Daoist Deng. When Fellow Daoist Deng takes office, the contents above will be circulated throughout the Far West. In the world of cultivating immortals, this should put fellow Daoist Zhou at ease!"
"Fellow Taoist Yin is interested, so Zhou will thank you first."
Zhou Yang took the jade book, held it in his hands with satisfaction, and said thank you.
Seeing this, Yin Hanguang's eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly said: "Yin's end is approaching, and he may pass away in another three or two years. This time should be the last time that Zhou Daoyou and Yin meet. Before leaving, Yin I have a few words to say to fellow Taoist Zhou, I wonder if fellow Taoist Zhou is willing to listen?"
When Zhou Yang heard this, he glanced at him in surprise, then thought about it, and then responded seriously: "Zhou is willing to listen to Taoist Fellow Yin's advice."
"Yin has lived for more than two thousand years and has seen many talented people. But among all the monks that Yin has seen, Taoist friend Zhou is undoubtedly the most dazzling one. Don't mention anything else, just the speed of practice. Yin I dare to say that Fellow Daoist Zhou is definitely the number one person in this world in ten thousand years!"
"Those who didn't know about it, after hearing about the speed of Zhou Daoyou's cultivation, probably thought that Zhou Daoyou had extraordinary talent in cultivation, but both Yin and Zhou knew that Zhou Daoyou could cultivate so bravely and diligently, and could grow from a small family monk to a Today's giants are actually the result of surviving life and death crises one after another."
"To be honest, just because Yin knows about the adventures of fellow Taoist Zhou, Yin is amazed every time he hears about them. If he and fellow Taoist were to change places, Yin would not have any confidence or certainty to survive!"
"Fellow Daoist Zhou was able to survive life and death crises one after another. Luck, strength, and wisdom are all indispensable. Throughout the history of the world of immortality, anyone who can combine these three powers will have unlimited achievements. , there are also many people who have overcome the calamity and become immortals!"
"If there is anyone in our human race who is expected to become an immortal in the past two thousand years, Yin's first choice is Fellow Daoist Zhou!"
Yin Hanguang looked at Zhou Yang with bright eyes, and his words were full of personal admiration and praise for Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang felt a little tired after hearing the tone. It had been a long time since he heard someone praise him like this.
He couldn't help but waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Fellow Daoist Yin is too praised, too praised. Zhou is too ashamed to deserve it, too ashamed to deserve it!"
"Fellow Daoist Zhou doesn't need to be humble. This is the truth, so why should we be afraid of others' praise? Besides, with the current strength of Daoist Daoist, are you still afraid of being a big tree and attracting wind?"
Yin Hanguang shook his head, not quite agreeing with Zhou Yang's modesty.
But this was a small detail, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
He immediately said: "If fellow Taoist Zhou can overcome the tribulation and become an immortal in the future, then our human race will have another true immortal who can overcome the tribulation. This will be a great good thing for the entire human race, and a great joy worthy of universal celebration!"
"But has Fellow Daoist Zhou ever thought about what happens after passing through the calamity and becoming an immortal? If Fellow Daoist Zhou can really achieve the status of a true immortal in the future, does Fellow Daoist want to be like the true immortals of our human race, living in seclusion and escaping from the world, or to come to immortality?
Will the world of mortals be able to unify the world of immortality?"
This question should be asked to Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang's eyes first showed a look of shock and confusion. He was a little surprised why Yin Hanguang asked this. At the same time, he was also a little confused. He really didn't know what he would do when the time came.
But this confusion only lasted for a while, and then his eyes condensed, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
Dangjiu straightened his expression, looked at Yin Hanguang with a stern face and said: "Yin Taoist Fellow Taoist said such things to Zhou for no reason. He must have some advice. Taoist Fellow Taoist might as well say it all at once, Zhou too."
All ears!”
When Yin Hanguang saw what he said in such a formal manner, he quickly waved his hand and said humbly: "I don't want to take advice. Originally, even if Yin didn't tell these things, if Taoist friend Zhou is destined to survive the tribulation and become an immortal in the future, someone will naturally tell his friend. Now Yin and Taoist
When my friend mentioned it, I just wanted to sell my friend a favor so that he would not be an enemy of my Immortal Palace in the future!"
Zhou Yang had already guessed his intention, and in order to reassure him, he immediately promised: "Friend Daoist Yin, please rest assured about this. Fellow Daoist Yin must also know Zhou's character. As long as people don't offend me, Zhou will never do anything to me."
He will use force to bully others and infringe on others!"
"Okay, with these words from fellow Taoist Zhou, Yin will die without any regrets!"
Yin Hanguang's eyes were bright, and the joy of having his wish filled his heart, and his face looked much younger.
Then without Zhou Yang asking any more questions, he said what he had not said before.
"Do you know, Fellow Daoist Zhou, why after my human race's true immortals became enlightened, we only heard their names but never saw them, and some even didn't even show their reputations?"
"Do you know, Fellow Daoist Zhou, why all the demon clan's true spirits disappeared without a trace after they became enlightened?"
"The reason is actually not complicated. The reason why those true immortals and true spirits seclude themselves from the world after they become enlightened is because at their level of cultivation, it can be said that any external objects in this world are of no use to them, so they will be the same as
We monks no longer have conflicts of interests, just like we monks will not go out to the common mortals to rob the gold and jewelry that they think are treasures."
"Secondly, when they reach their level of cultivation, every move they make has already been secretly paid attention to by the will of heaven in this world. If they appear frequently in front of people and interfere with the natural operation of all living things in this world, they will be under the will of heaven.
disgust and rejection.”
"For example, they cannot absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth when they are meditating, or they are struck by lightning when they go out, or they are in deep retreat that cannot be disturbed, and the enemy suddenly comes to their door, and other unlucky things!"
"Of course, if you are like [Chongyang Master] Senior Du, every time you take action is to kill the real demons invading the outside world, and to quell the turmoil caused by the real demons, then not only will you not be disgusted by the will of heaven, but you will also gain
With the blessing of the will of heaven, I get some special benefits."
"Those who obey nature will prosper, and those who go against nature will perish. The theory of obeying nature and responding to people is not without practical truth, but is the true principle of heaven!"
After Yin Hanguang finished speaking, Zhou Yang suddenly became enlightened and understood many things in an instant.
He couldn't help but think of what Lu Xuanji said when he asked him to go to the [Qiongtian Fairyland]. At that time, Lu Xuanji said that once a real demon like the [Splitting Heavenly Demon] succeeds, there must be good luck from heaven.
The addition of the body will be of great help to him in the future when he transforms into an elixir and forms an infant. Even when he undergoes the heavenly tribulation of becoming an immortal, the power of the celestial tribulation will be smaller than that of ordinary people.
He didn't know the truth before, so he didn't take it seriously when he heard this.
But now it seems that Lu Xuanji obviously knows the secrets that can only be accessed by true immortals in the tribulation period.
From this point of view, it is true that Lu Xuanji originally wanted to use the abundant spiritual energy in the [Qiongtian Fairyland] to cross the tribulation period, but what he wanted to do more was probably to kill the [Splitting Heavenly Demon] to obtain the fortune of the heavens for help.
Enter the tribulation period by yourself.
It can also be inferred from this that the [Splitting Heavenly Demon] and the holy demon avatar from the Beitingzhou Immortal Realm were finally destroyed. Perhaps it was because they were hated and targeted by the will of heaven in the world, so everything went wrong and eventually perished.
At the same time, Zhou Yang finally knew why those true immortals who had transcended the tribulation period had secluded themselves from the world after attaining enlightenment, instead of trying to unify the world of immortality and establish an unprecedented hegemony!
"That's it, that's it!"
He murmured to himself, with an expression of great enlightenment, and nodded frequently.
If Yin Hanguang had not pointed out these things to him today, he really would not have known about them.
This is the true top secret in the world of immortality. It is impossible for those who are not the top powers who have inherited it for a long time to know.
This kind of secret may only be heard as a secret to most monks.
But if you don't know this secret in advance, you may easily suffer a lot after you overcome the tribulation and become an immortal.
Despite what Yin Hanguang said before, if Zhou Yang really overcame the tribulation and became an immortal, someone would talk to him about it.
But that premise is that the news that he overcame the tribulation and became an immortal will be known to others.
According to his consistent approach, the first thing after a breakthrough in cultivation is not to show off to the world, but to destroy enemies that could not be destroyed before.
If he really did something like that without knowing the secret, he would be in big trouble.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang's face suddenly changed, and he said with a rather unsightly expression: "According to Fellow Daoist Yin, if you become an immortal after overcoming the tribulation, you will no longer be able to easily interfere in the affairs of the immortal world, and you will not be able to take action against ordinary monks.
After overcoming the tribulation and becoming an immortal, in addition to extending the lifespan, wouldn't it mean that the freedom and carefreeness now are gone, and the person becomes more like an immortal prisoner wearing shackles?"
"That's not what happened! Therefore, the greatest wish of those seniors who have transcended tribulations and become immortals is to ascend to the upper world!"
"This is not only because only the upper realm can pursue the path of immortality, but also because after reaching the upper realm, they can truly become a free and unfettered true immortal, no longer restricted by the will of heaven in the world!"
After Yin Hanguang finished speaking, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of sarcasm on his face. He didn't know if he was sarcastic on those true immortals who had passed through the tribulation period, or on this phenomenon, or on both.
Zhou Yang was immediately speechless.
The difference between this rather ironic reality and his previous beautiful fantasy of becoming a true immortal in the Tribulation Stage is really quite big, and it is so big that it is hard to accept.
Although he is still separated by the ninth level of Nascent Soul before he can overcome the tribulation and become an immortal, when he thinks about how he will lose his current freedom and become helpless after overcoming the tribulation and becoming an immortal, he can't help but feel the urge not to practice too much.
Come on, let’s live happily for a thousand years first and then talk about it.
However, this thought only appeared for a moment before he was decisively put to death.
Time waits for no one. Overcoming the calamity and becoming an immortal is a task that is as difficult as climbing to the sky. If you dare to relax and enjoy yourself and spend your time on this road, your final end will be the same as Yin Hanguang now, with a head full of helplessness and gray hair.
Waiting to sit down.
not to mention……
Zhou Yang couldn't help but think of what his master [Zhenjun Donglai] left for him.
If he can overcome the tribulation and become an immortal, it is not impossible to ascend to the upper realm. When the time comes, as long as he ascends to the upper realm, his previous beautiful fantasies about becoming a true immortal in the tribulation period will naturally come true.
"It's just that before I overcome the tribulation and become an immortal, all the grudges and karma should be settled, otherwise it will be difficult to handle later!"
Zhou Yang nodded slightly thoughtfully, and his expression gradually returned to normal.
He cupped his hands and bowed to Yin Hanguang and said, "Thank you Taoist Fellow Yin for telling Zhou these secrets, which opened Zhou's eyes to many doubts that he had never understood before."
Then a look of curiosity flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Yin Hanguang curiously and asked: "It's just that Zhou has a question that he would like to ask Fellow Daoist Yin to help answer. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Yin knows whether there is anyone else in our human race besides Chongyang Immortal Lord.
Other hidden immortals? What are their titles?"
This question actually arose after Zhou Yang witnessed the success of Lei Yu’s true spirit in overcoming the tribulation.
Although he himself did not think that the Thunder Feather True Spirit would help the demon clan deal with the human race, he still had to be prepared in this regard.
Of course, now that he has learned that neither the True Immortal of the Tribulation Stage nor the True Spirit of the Demon Clan can easily interfere with the affairs of the Immortal Cultivation World, most of his worries in this regard have been relieved.
It's just that now it's rare to meet Yin Hanguang who is willing to talk to him about these top secrets, so he naturally won't let go of this opportunity to solve his doubts.
However, after Yin Hanguang listened to his question, he smiled bitterly and said: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, this question is for Yin. Yin and the Great Guangming Immortal Palace have been hiding in the far west for too long, and have not interacted with other immortal cultivation circles for a long time.
There have been large-scale exchanges, and now I ask Yin to tell me how many true immortals there are in our human race, but Yin really can’t tell!”
After hearing what he said, Zhou Yang originally thought that he would have to wait until he overcame the tribulation and became an immortal to solve this doubt.
But Yin Hanguang quickly said: "However, although Yin does not know how many true immortals there are in our human race in the world of immortality now, he knows that more than six or seven thousand years ago, there were three true immortals in our human race who could be named.
In addition to the Chongyang Immortal Lord known to Fellow Daoist Zhou, there are two other people named [Zhenmu Zhenren] and [Jiuyuan Zhenren], who come from the Tiannan Continent and Liuyun Continent respectively!"
