Three days later in the afternoon, a rainbow light broke through the sky and suddenly fell into Tianfu Island, one of the floating islands.
"Congratulations, junior brother, you have eliminated another enemy for our sect. This is a wanted bonus, please accept it quickly."
Half a day later, deep in the cave, Taoist Zhaikong smiled and thrust a milky-white Nakong Seal into Zhao Sheng's hand.
Zhao Sheng penetrated it with his spiritual consciousness and was surprised: "What a big piece of innate Geng gold. I remember that the reward was not for this thing. And this one...could it be the Karma Fire Lotus Crystal."
As he spoke, there was a round crystal elixir in his hand that was red and shining like a jade lotus.
A trace of fire flashed in Zhaikong's eyes when he saw it, but he nodded and said with a smile: "You, for some reason, you have caught the eye of the ancestor of the sect. This treasure was given by his old man himself."
Zhao Sheng looked grateful when he heard this, but his heart was as calm as water.
For monks who have practiced the "Red Lotus Karma Fire Sutra", although the merit lotus crystal is not a treasure of heaven and earth, it is more precious than ordinary spiritual objects of heaven and earth.
Because this thing must have come from the hands of a great monk who was at least the late Nascent Soul, and it must be a great priest of the Red Lotus Sutra Dzogchen.
The Karma Fire Lotus Crystal combines the essence of Karma Fire with the spiritual understanding of the predecessors. It is a kind of precious treasure similar to the crystallization of cultivation experience.
The old man guarding the gate took out this thing as a reward.
To tell the truth, it is not a good thing if the reward is greater than the merit!
Zhao Sheng pondered in his heart and suddenly asked: "I wonder if the Patriarch can leave a message for me?"
Zhaikong's eyes showed approval, "Junior brother is indeed thoughtful, and the ancestor has indeed given instructions to you to continue your efforts and make more new contributions to our sect!"
After saying that, he couldn't help but warned: "Junior brother, the patriarch has a very high vision and rarely favors others. This opportunity is once in a lifetime, you must cherish it! Don't let the ancestor down, let alone the master.
!”
"Well, everything that senior brother said makes sense, I understand!" Zhao Sheng's eyes moved slightly, and he nodded and lowered his eyebrows.
…
More than ten days later, Zhao Sheng refined the Karma Fire Lotus Crystal, which greatly increased the power of his own Karma Fire Red Lotus, and it now vaguely showed the appearance of an eighteenth grade lotus.
At the same time, my understanding of the scriptures has also been greatly improved. The Golden Elixir Chapter of the Red Lotus Sutra has been fully understood. Even the Nascent Soul Chapter has a glimpse of the eight-point essence. I only need to break through the realm to practice again after reaching the Golden Elixir Great Perfection.
On this day, Zhao Sheng was about to go to the sea to cultivate, but he was dragged by Taoist Zhaikong to attend a gathering of fellow practitioners.
It had only been two months since Zhai Kong took over the post of deputy governor. His power was not yet stable, and he needed to establish his prestige first.
Zhao Sheng had just killed the old monster Fengpu and became famous in Wanhua Tianfu, so he just wanted to attract him to build up his momentum.
Late at night, the floating island finally calmed down a bit, and the clouds dispersed. It was the bright moon that illuminated the sky, and the sky was filled with stars.
The cold wind is biting, the moonlight is bright, and the scenery on the island is unique.
At this time, the top of a mountain on Liantian Island was quiet and quiet. In an ancient pine jade platform, eight or nine golden elixirs, including Zhao Sheng, Zhai Kong, and Hong Qingqiu, were sitting together. On the jade table in front of them were placed rare fruits and various
Waiting for the spirit wine, we were sitting and chatting.
Hong Qingqiu had just emptied a wine bottle, threw it down the peak, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, you are really a real person without showing your face! You actually killed Old Monster Zhu in one move. With your strength, at least in our Wanhua Tianfu
Also ranked in the top ten... Uh, Xiao Zhen, don’t you think so?”
Taoist Zhen cursed in a low voice, obviously dissatisfied with the title, but how could he dare to be serious with the half-drunk Hong Qingqiu?
"Senior Brother Hong said it is." Taoist Zhen looked at Xianfeng Daogu, but he was the weakest among all the people, so he could barely pass the golden elixir threshold.
After vaguely agreeing with him for a while, he immediately changed the subject: "Recently, Zhen knew a great secret, and he wanted to share it with all fellow Taoists! To talk about Centipede Land Chen, we have to mention the crossroads thousands of years ago.
Realm Expedition...Which realm does this cross? Hey, fellow Taoists must also know that it is the Tianzhu Realm. But today we will not mention that disappointing thing, but just talk about Centizhou Luchen. Dare I ask?
Everyone, does anyone know why the Nuo Da continent sank even though it was said to be sinking?"
A big man with golden skin sneered: "Hey, this is just for showing off. Old Master Zhen, the longer you live, the more you go back. There is a clear record in the secret volume. Centizhou Luchen was caused by the monster of Star God going out of control and going berserk.
The unprecedented oscillation of time and space caused the continent of Centizhou to collapse due to the force of time and space, and eventually sank into the abyss of the ocean."
After saying this, an old Taoist named Guanyu, with the sky pox emerging from behind, couldn't help but sigh: "Speaking of the cross-border expedition a thousand years ago, it can be said that it was a prosperous age of cultivation, with great changes, dragons and snakes rising from the land, and many outstanding people took advantage of the situation.
Since then, even the True Monarchs of Divine Transformation have emerged one after another. Why didn’t we catch up with that good time?"
"Uncle Wu is absolutely right. I have also read many previous records... Millions of monks started from Centipede, crossed hundreds of millions of miles of void, occupied the Shattered Star Sea, fought back in Central Continent, and climbed to Tianzhu Mountain.
Crossing the Canglong River, swallowing up millions of miles of mountains and rivers, all the great realms that I want to teach surrender to the power of our heaven... What a majestic spirit!"
"Haha, so bold!"
At this point, Zhao Sheng suddenly burst into laughter and strengthened his tone. After repeating it once, he suddenly said again: "Millions of monks have spent all their resources across several continents and crossed the endless void. What will be the result? Hehehe
, it’s not just that they were broken and sinking into the sand, and only one in a thousand could escape back to the Nether God Realm. Even Centizhou lost money... What kind of expedition victory is this?"
"Oh, you don't have to be so mean!"
Master Guan Yu, also known as Wu Qinyou, knocked on the jade case in front of him and showed dissatisfaction: "What does it mean to escape, and what does it mean to lose money in Centizhou? Expedition to other worlds, with millions of monks against hundreds of millions of immortal cultivators, not only occupied
A vast ocean, and two top sects were slaughtered in succession, causing great turmoil in Central Continent, and even brought back hundreds of millions of slaves.
Each of these is a great achievement.
In the end, if the Star God hadn't lost control and at the cost of returning to annihilation, he tore the space-time channel and created a great space-time storm, thus cutting off the army's retreat and even killing most of the monks... with the help of those rubbish from the Tianzhu Realm
, can they win?

"Even if it is defeated, only the previous pope can cut off the queen, hold the banners of gods and demons in ten directions, stop the armies of the five continents, conquer all directions, and kill all the enemies.
The transformation of gods, Nascent Soul, and hundreds of millions of immortal cultivators have all stopped moving forward. It can be said that even though you are defeated, you are still glorious!"
Zhao Sheng insisted on being more serious: "Although Chi Zong is strong, even the bones fell into the hands of the enemy. Our sect has been disgraced so far. How can you explain it?"
"that is because……"
"Uh, two fellow Taoists!"
Seeing that the two of them were arguing over the death of the previous pope in another realm, the instigator, Taoist Zhen, had to interrupt their argument and said with a wry smile on his face: "I mean, you two, we are talking about Centipede Island and Lu Chen. How did it get involved?"
Did it go to Chi Zong?"
Guanyu veteran Wu Qinyou glanced at Zhao Sheng coldly and replied coldly: "Pintao is complaining about the predecessors of the expedition. They have made such great achievements, but now they are slandered by Xiaoxiao. Pindao will never look down on this.
Wait for the cold-blooded and ruthless people."
Zhao Sheng snorted coldly, but was too lazy to show off his rhetoric. It was just that they had different paths and were not working together.
At this time, Taoist Zhaikong spoke up to smooth things over.
He first reprimanded Zhao Sheng: "Junior brother, you have to change your habit of talking without meaning.
You have to know that at the time of the cross-border expedition, almost all the elites of our sect were used, including the two God-Transforming True Monarchs, nearly fifty Nascent Soul Priests, and hundreds of Golden Elixir Priests. Tens of thousands of years ago, even
The scale and brutality of the first war between the two worlds was not even 1% of that of this war.
Nowadays, our sect can no longer organize a team of this size. Even if the expedition failed and we returned to our own realm, the battlefield has been in Tianzhu Realm from beginning to end, and it has not spread to the mainland at all. Even if Centizhou Luchen... By the way
, Junior Brother Zhen, you just said you have a secret to share, I wonder what secret it is?"
Seeing Deputy Chief Zhaikong look over, Taoist Zhen had an idea and said quickly: "That's right, let's not talk about the disappointing things, but let's talk about how Centipede Island disappeared overnight?!"
Having said this, Taoist Zhen took out a fist-sized transparent crystal ball from his arms and knocked on the crystal wall with his fingers.
In an instant, the crystal ball glowed with brilliance, projecting a beam of light, which suddenly turned into a three-foot-wide topographical map of the Centipede Sea.
Not only is this picture three-dimensional, it can be large or small, it even contains the five eyes of the earth's core and the sea.
"What...is the purpose of this?" You Jindan asked doubtfully.
Fellow Daoist Zhen smiled, reduced the terrain map to about one foot, pointed at the Earth's Inner Sea Eye, and said proudly: "You should know that these five Earth's Inner Sea Eyes suddenly appeared after the centipede land sank.
But no one knows why they appear at the same time? Most people think that they are caused by the vibration of time and space, but...until recently I got a stone tablet, and the record on the tablet made me dumbfounded and unbelievable."
"Ma Dan, what nonsense are you talking about! Just go up to the stone monument." Hong Qingqiu had a bad temper and immediately continued to curse.
"Senior Brother Hong, be patient. You don't know. After I read it, the stone tablet disintegrated and turned into mud on the spot. It is no longer readable."
Everyone was speechless when they heard this.
When Taoist Zhen saw the expressions on everyone's face, he didn't dare to show off any more, and quickly pointed to the map: "Fellow Taoists, please see, the distribution and spacing of these five sea eyes, do they look like five fingers? Well, it looks like this...
"
As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand, spread his fingers, and slowly pressed on the map.
At the same time, the terrain map quickly shrunk and matched the size of the palm, and the five sea eyes corresponded exactly to the five fingertips.
Zhao Sheng was horrified when he saw this scene.
However, others looked suspicious, and Hong Qingqiu burst out laughing, even with tears in his eyes.
"Xiao Zhen, if you don't tell stories, your talent will be blinded in vain. How dare you believe this talk of heaven and night! When Centizhou Lu sank, there were countless people who witnessed it, and there are still many Nascent Soul sacrifices to this day.
Living in this world, are they all blind?"
After hearing this, everyone nodded, with unspoken smiles on their faces.
Taoist Zhen did not show a trace of embarrassment. Instead, he looked solemn and recited loudly: "On this day, the day is like darkness, the way of heaven is sleeping, a palm comes from the west, covering the sky and the sun... The land of Centipede Island is sinking, and all living things are in ruins. All living beings are ignorant and unaware.
, Hearing but not hearing, turning a blind eye, what a shocking power this is! God Lord? True Immortal? Heavenly punishment?... It is a pity and pitiful. If you hear the word in the morning, you will die in the evening! Before the ashes are wiped out, future generations will say: The pillar of heaven cannot be entered, thousands of people will die.
Cultivate ten thousand ways to avoid the yellow robe! Wanxiang Sanren's masterpiece."
With a "pop" sound, Hong Qingqiu sprayed all over the face of Taoist Zhen opposite him. He definitely did it on purpose. How could he express his shock otherwise?
Taoist Zhen had a strange reaction. He just wiped away the wine stains with an expressionless face and continued to preach to everyone: "Based on the kind of person Wanxiang Zhenjun was, he would definitely make fun of me and other descendants before he died. He deliberately did this for this moment.
I'm afraid the monument is indeed something."
hehe!
Zhao Sheng laughed and said: "Not to mention that the true king Wanxiang stayed in the world for three hundred years after the war. Why did the true king never mention this matter to outsiders for more than three hundred years? Instead, he left a monument before his death. This so-called Wanxiang
Jubilee Monument, is it...serious?"
"Haha, Brother Zhao is funny. I don't know whether the stone tablet is serious or not. But I think it's ridiculous that Fellow Taoist Zhen actually believes in such nonsense." Hong Qingqiu interjected at the right time, with a sarcastic look on his face.
He has always looked down upon the opportunistic Zhen Taoists, so he would use words to try to undermine them whenever he got the chance.
"It's just a casual chat. You don't need to take it seriously. The old Taoist has been the Taoist guardian of the Zongtan Sutra Library for a hundred years. He has read mountains of ancient books and jade slips, and has never seen a word like this. I think there is something unscrupulous.
We used the name of True Lord Wanxiang to make a forged stone tablet. It is more likely to be... the secret agent of Tianzhu Realm. This move is clearly intimidating and deceiving the world. It is not worth mentioning."
After being reminded, everyone suddenly realized what was going on and they all started to express their admiration. At this time, Master Zhen's face was green and white, and he was ashamed and secretly doubtful.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It has been thousands of years since the war between the two worlds ended, but the secret war between Youshen and Tianzhu has never stopped. Both worlds have sent countless secret spies to the other world.
In this world, not only does it secretly collect intelligence, but it also colludes with other heretical forces to cause trouble.
For example, Cangzhou Anti-Tian Alliance, Fuzhou Origin Sects, Longzhou Ten Thousand Demon Mountains and other disobedient forces were all formed by secret spies from Tianzhu.
Zhaikong revealed the "truth" in one word, and the Taoist Zhen was embarrassed on the spot.
"...But is the 'truth' really what Saikong said?"
An hour later, the party ended and on the way back, Zhao Sheng thought to himself.
…
"Junior Brother Zhao, be careful, Pindao is about to take action!"
As the words were spoken, a yellow-faced Taoist with a high official title waved his sleeves and robes, and the yellow light of the setting sun was like a wave. In a blink of an eye, the sky was crowded out by the sea of clouds. The vast yellow clouds in the sky came over the sky and covered the earth with overwhelming force.
"What a magical power!"
Facing the tide of light, Zhao Sheng did not retreat even half a step. Nine layers of starlight buzzed up outside him, his sword intent exploded, and the sword wave bursting from the starlight spread out a hundred feet away.
In an instant, the yellow clouds collided with the star waves, and then the roaring sound filled the sky, and the hurricane roared up, rolling in all directions.
After only a moment of stalemate, four "shooting stars" suddenly rushed out from the star tide, tearing Huang Xia apart easily, carrying unparalleled sharpness and slashing straight through.
"Oh, no!" The yellow-faced Taoist's expression changed, and the Earth Element True Essence surged out wildly. A flying stone flew up into the air from the bottom of his sleeves, rose up in the wind, and instantly turned into a hundred-foot stone peak, blocking his body.
forward.
However, at this moment, an eighteen-petal karma fire red lotus suddenly came from below, the flames soared into the sky, but the invisible karma fire rushed into the purple mansion soul sea first, burning the soul.
"Stop! The poor Taoist has given up!" The yellow-faced Taoist sensed the sudden rain of lotus flames falling from the sky above the Soul Sea. His face suddenly changed and he couldn't help shouting loudly.
"Senior Li, I accept it." Zhao Sheng stopped casting spells and said with a smile and cupped his hands.
"Take it! Alas, it seems that the Qiu Ling Pai has no chance with Pindao. You must hold on to it and don't let other greedy people compete for it."
The yellow-faced Taoist reluctantly threw a spiritual fire cauldron to Zhao Sheng, which contained a fire in stone.
Zhao Shenghun put the Spiritual Fire Cauldron into the Nakong Seal nonchalantly, and responded with a smile on his face: "Senior, don't worry! No one can take this spiritual tablet away, I said so!"
Later, the yellow-faced Taoist left sadly. The smile on Zhao Sheng's face gradually faded, and he murmured to himself: "Huaying Dan? Who are the people behind the scenes?"
