The dark underground palace is filled with boundless coldness. This coldness envelopes the three most famous strong men in the world, as if they are acting as some kind of bridge to convey unknown news.
"You had expected that we would not succeed in this operation?"
The calm face of the Youhe old monster turned ferocious, and all ten nails of a pair of withered palms were gathered together.
He was clenching his fists angrily, staring directly at the floating water of the black pool.
"certainly."
The Seven-Fingered Demon King's voice was smooth and emotionless, and he didn't seem to care about the emotional changes of the old monster Youhe.
"In fact, when Miaoxian asked me to plan an operation in exchange for the advice of Yang'er's murderer, I started divination..." The mask-like face had no expression, as if he was trying to remember something: "That should be thirty thousand years ago.
A while ago, when Yang'er just died, I was in retreat at Lengyue Shenfeng and saw the crescent moon..."
Li Miaoxian frowned: "When Yang'er died 30,000 years ago, you were indifferent, but you were still in the mood to see the crescent moon. Are you worthy of being a father?"
The Seven-Fingered Demon King's eyelids moved, causing the water waves transformed from black water to ripple slightly.
This may be an expression of some emotion.
But it was only for a moment: "Miaoxian, I have told you a long time ago that since you have ascended to the status of a god, all the complicated emotions in the world will be a drag. You should not have them. This will affect your cultivation in the divine world.
Everyone has a long life, but they cannot achieve true immortality. Emotions will become a stumbling block for you, preventing you from understanding the wonders of the great road. Just like the old guy next to you, he has been six million years old, no, six to be precise.
In 1.7 million years, if you ask him, can he develop his own path?"
Youhe opened his mouth when he heard the sound, but something seemed to be blocking his mouth, and the rest of the words couldn't come out at all.
Dao Meridian!
Although he has always known about the existence of such a thing, he has not discovered any clues about it so far.
In the divine world, there are many unknown secrets hidden, including those related to spiritual practice.
The Tao Meridian is the first "hidden miracle" on the road to becoming a true god.
This secret miracle can usually be prepared from the time you enter the seventh-level realm. It is called Dao Meridian.
It refers to the most secret line hidden in the subconscious realm during the process of transformation from a god to a god after a mortal cultivates his moral integrity and becomes a god.
This lineage connects the soul and the golden body. Ordinary people do not have it and can only develop it through special means.
Its role in the human body is like the principles of divine magic, and the traces of divine weapons are the existence that can maximize the potential of gods and men.
Legend has it that a god who develops Taoism will be ten times, or even a hundred times more powerful than an ordinary god.
The Seven-Fingered Demon King mentioned the pain point of the old monster Youhe, and when he saw Youhe didn't respond, he burst out with a strange mocking voice: "Haha, look, I was right. He is a rank-9 strongman, and he has been cultivating for a whole day."
For 6.7 million years, in fact, he should have planned to evolve the Dao Meridian after reaching the seventh level. He also knows the existence of the Dao Meridian, but why hasn't he evolved it yet?"
"Aren't you smart enough?"
"Still no talent?"
"No, it's not the case. It's because he seems to have cut off the seven emotions and six desires, but in fact, he still has the useless emotions of mortals, which has become a stumbling block on his path of cultivation."
"You don't have to be dissatisfied. I'll just give you an example. If you evolved the Dao Veins after entering the eighth rank, no, even after entering the ninth rank, then today you will never be blocked by Tao Gongshan from Canghai Palace. Maybe you
With his Changchun demon sword skills, he can kill that old man with just one strike, am I right?"
The old monster Youhe was completely speechless.
He knew that the Seven Finger Demon King was right. If he had the Dao Vein, how could a mere Tao Gongshan be qualified to be his obstacle? He was still incompetent and had not yet developed the Dao Vein.
At present, I have been groping step by step on the path of gods for 6.7 million years, and it is not long before I can break through to the gods. Even if I am lucky enough to develop the path, I will not be able to reach the highest stage in the end.
Although his skills can still be domineering in thousands of first-level heaven planes, if he encounters a master of the Evolution Dao Lineage, he will have no other choice but to escape.
"That's enough."
When the plan failed and returned, the Seven Finger Demon King did not say a word of comfort. Instead, he first belittled the strongest assistant he had invited from head to toe. Li Miaoxian could not tolerate it.
She scolded: "Qizhi, don't change the subject. I'm talking about your ruthlessness now. Don't blame Senior Youhe. In any case, he is better than you. At least he knows that I want revenge."
At that time, you supported me without hesitation, but you, as Yang'er's biological father, kept saying that you loved him, but you showed nothing after he was killed."
In today's world, there are at least two realms: gods and night demons. There are few people who dare to talk to the Seven-Fingered Demon King like this. She, Li Miaoxian, is one of them.
The Seven Finger Demon King was not angry, as he said, he did not have any human emotions.
The Seven Finger Demon King said: "Look, you still haven't grasped the main point. What I said was that useless emotions will become a drag on you, but you misunderstood what I meant."
Seeing that Li Miaoxian's face was like boiling fire, the Seven Finger Demon King quickly said: "That's all, if you don't want to listen, then don't listen. But I hope that after you calm down, you can think carefully about whether what I said is right or wrong, and then you can listen to it."
Good for you."
Li Miaoxian did not calm down, but she also did not continue to hold on to the Seven Finger Demon King's pigtails. From their conversation, it appeared that the two of them were not a Taoist couple who were in love with each other as the rumors said. Instead, they had a son.
Strangers who are bound by life.
Li Miaoxian returned to the previous topic: "Tell me, since you had already expected that we would fail, why didn't you remind us that Senior Youhe lost a close friend from the same country and dozens of subordinates because of me.
"
The Seven-Finger Demon King said calmly: "I told you a long time ago, and the prophecy has come true."
"What prophecy did you divine?"
The Seven Finger Demon King said: "This is related to a big secret, and now is not the time to talk about it. In short, although I failed to get the Earth Box Stone Book this time, it is still not a loss."
"It's not a loss? What are you referring to?" The old monster Youhe was very surprised, but he couldn't understand the meaning of the Seven Finger Demon King's words.
The Seven Finger Demon King said mysteriously: "I heard that Xu Lu has transferred Tao Gongshan and Yu Chenxi back to Tiangangmen, and Canghai Palace has been abandoned by him."
"Abandon Canghai Palace?" Li Miaoxian was stunned at first, but after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't understand the meaning of the Seven Finger Demon King's words, and said: "What is this? Canghai Palace was attacked, and the secret of the stone book in the earth box cannot be hidden.
Yes, I will also transfer them back. The stone book in the earth box is a treasure, so of course it needs to be kept in another place."
A ripple appeared on the calm surface of the black pool: "No, you are wrong. This is not the main reason. This stone book has another secret."
Li Miaoxian seemed to think of something when she heard this, but this unrealistic idea made her even more unable to control the restless emotions in her heart.
He said angrily: "Thirty thousand years ago, when Yang'er died, I asked you to send troops to the spirit world to attack Tiangang Gate and avenge Yang'er, but you resisted in every possible way. Until not long ago, I proposed again and you finally agreed.
, and also suggested that I use the stone book from the earth box as a condition of negotiation, so that Tiangangmen can hand over the murderer."
"At that time, I thought you had discovered your conscience, but now that I think about it, could it be that you had a plan a long time ago and deliberately let me plot to seize the stone book?"
"You did this because of the prophecy you said?"
This time, the Seven-fingered Demon King was silent, and his silence allowed Li Miaoxian to verify his suspicion.
She opened her eyes with indignation, and her delicate facial features were distorted: "Qizhi, are you worthy of being a father? You actually want to use your own dead flesh and blood, you are not a human being."
Even though he had ascended; even though he had taken control of his destiny; even though he had cut off all his emotions and desires - the emotions Li Miaoxian showed at this moment were almost the same as those of a mortal.
She is angry, she has lost her mind, she is a person with subtle emotions, not a so-called spiritual puppet.
The Seven-fingered Demon King continued to be silent and said nothing.
"You speak."
The tyrannical Qi spread out, and the powerful true divine power in Li Miaoxian's body hit the underground palace cave like a huge wave, causing the dark cave buried deep in the ground to shake wildly, and even the black water in the black pool was shaken.
I couldn't help splashing water.
But these water splashes were blocked outside the Seven Finger Demon King's face, and could not penetrate even a drop.
The piercing eyes of the Youhe old monster showed a green light like a cave. He was also surprised how the Seven-fingered Demon King ensured that his emotions were not affected by the outside world.
In fact, the so-called cutting off the seven emotions and six desires is simply nonsense.
You must know that even if you are a practitioner, as long as you are ambitious, you cannot guarantee that you will truly cut off the seven emotions and six desires.
Greed is also one of the seven emotions and six desires.
"I'm still saying the same thing, if you don't calm down, it's useless to talk to you. Just wait and see, Tiangang Sect will definitely take action next, and the spirit world, night demon world, and even several known planes around us will...
There was quite a commotion caused by the stone book in the earth box, and then you will know what I am planning."
After the Seven Finger Demon King finished speaking, he lost interest in continuing the conversation, and finally dropped a sentence: "No matter what, you helped me this time, and you can't go back to the Red Smoke Gate. I'm a hundred miles behind here."
A palace has been arranged for you. You can stay there first. You don’t have to worry about Yang’er. I haven’t gotten the stone book from the earth box. Isn’t there Yun Moxian? She knows who killed Yang’er.”
The words drifted away, and the water surface of the Black Pond finally returned to normal. The face disappeared, and the Black Pond was like a black cloth, as if nothing had ever happened.
"An animal, not a human being, deserves to be a father."
Seeing that the Seven Fingered Demon King was gone, all Li Miaoxian could do was be incompetent and furious, nothing else.
The old monster Youhe had a defeated expression on his face and sighed: "Miaoxian, forget it, you can't fight him. He can even use the death of his own flesh and blood. No wonder he can develop Tao channels. We are not as good as him."
.”
…
In the Tiangang Hall, there were only the pair of master and disciple, Feng Jueyu and Xu Lu.
In the empty hall, Xu Lu's voice floated.
"You want to know what the path is? I can tell you!"
