Chapter 388: Mans calculation is not as good as Gods calculation
Seven days later, the sky was overcast, the air was filled with thick water vapor, and a heavy rainstorm was about to come.
At this moment, on the endless sea, the sea breeze is constantly blowing, the waves are undulating, and dense seaweed emerges from the sea like a tide. Looking at the endless sea, it seems to have laid a thick "carpet" on the sea.
Somewhere on the sea surface that was "submerged" by seaweed, Zhao Sheng turned into an invisible sea water. As the waves undulated, his breath converged to the lowest level.
A moment later, a floating island was quickly passing by here from above. The sky above the floating island was covered with a thick formation mask. Many monks were waiting in formation all over the island, looking at the sea below with murderous intent, not letting anyone go.
A hint of anomaly.
Buzz!
At this moment, a "strange sound" suddenly came from Zhao Sheng's mental level, followed by an unusually powerful wave of spiritual thoughts coming from far and near, sweeping across the surrounding sea area in a majestic torrent.
Zhao Sheng's mind was in deep trance, without thinking, and his whole person was integrated with the sea.
Even with a Nascent Soul-level spiritual search, there is no hope of discovering the "dirty things" in the sea below.
As the floating island quickly flew into the distance, the fluctuations of spiritual thoughts also moved away from this place and disappeared.
After a long time, there was a slight ripple on the sea surface, and Zhao Sheng suddenly left the realm of emptiness and underworld, and his consciousness regained consciousness.
He opened his eyes and looked up at the sky through the colorful seaweed.
As time goes by, Wuzhouhai becomes more and more "lively", like some kind of consciousness gradually sprouting from dead things.
Between heaven and earth, there is some kind of indescribable vastness that is slowly reviving, and is approaching a certain critical point day by day.
Being in it, Zhao Sheng couldn't help but feel that the surroundings were becoming more and more "depressing" and his heart gradually became "heavy".
In his fifth life, Zhao Sheng also personally experienced the Star God's awakening, but in this life, he was shocked to realize that there was some indescribable and huge difference between the Star God in this life and the "Star God" in the fifth life.
To use an inappropriate metaphor, the Star God in his fifth life seemed to be an extremely curious and "ignorant" child, but in this life, the Star God seemed to have suddenly grown up, and those who entered adolescence seemed to have developed the unique characteristics of teenagers.
"Trouble", the "pulsation" that unintentionally exudes is actually tainted with a hint of "gloom".
Just like the thousands of miles of dark clouds gradually gathering over the Shunzhou Sea, it is like a strange sign from the sky and the earth.
At this time, Zhao Sheng, like the other eight people, had dispersed to the surrounding sea area thousands of miles away. They only contacted each other through a special talisman, but they could not locate each other.
From thousands of years ago to today, the Star Gate has been opened more than ten times, but neither world has been able to accurately predict the location of the Star Gate's opening.
Even through the secret method of "divination", it can only be roughly reduced to a size of a few thousand miles.
If the range where the star gate is opened is drawn as a circle, Zhao Sheng's position at this time is on the edge of the core circle.
Zhao Sheng looked to the northeast and vaguely saw many "black spots" wandering under the dark clouds at the end of the sky.
He knew very well that those "black spots" were actually floating islands, floating temples, saucers, fortresses and other large flying magic weapons.
On these large flying magic weapons, the Youshen army is at war with each other. When the star gate opens, they will be in close combat with the "enemy".
In a sense, every "hand-to-hand encounter" is actually meaningless, because the overall power of the two worlds is similar, and it is impossible for each other to reach the other's hometown through the star gate, let alone dream of burning the flames of war to other worlds.
Therefore, the "war" once every hundred years seems more like a kind of temptation and catharsis.
Under the cover of war, the infiltration and counter-infiltration struggles of both sides are truly meaningful things.
In Zhao Sheng's view, the war between the two worlds will continue to be a stalemate for a long time until one side finally falls.
This "world" war will last for a long, long time, so long that even he can't see the slightest sign of its end.
…
While waiting silently, time flew by, and half a month flew by.
On this day, after just experiencing the 109th round-trip patrol of the floating island, the long-awaited celestial phenomenon finally arrived!
Boom!
The turbulent spiritual energy tide roared up in the void, and the huge waves of spiritual energy swept through the sky and the earth with the hurricane. The weather was majestic and vast...
Sensing the slow awakening of some unimaginable great consciousness, Zhao Sheng suddenly opened his eyes and saw the sea surface undulating violently, with countless seaweed rising into the sky and boiling with the huge waves, exuding unimaginable vast vitality.
At this time, Zhao Sheng suddenly felt something and raised his head to look at the sky.
At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be torn apart from the middle to both sides by a pair of invisible hands, and the cloud waves rolled away to both sides, revealing a clear and clear starry sky.
The stars in the sky are shining brightly, like mysterious eyes, overlooking all living beings in the world.
Although he had been reincarnated for several lives, Zhao Sheng was still extremely shocked when he saw this amazing scene.
But he quickly calmed down and returned to rationality from the shock.
When the "light rain" of spiritual energy fell in the starry sky, Zhao Sheng took the opportunity to transform into an undercurrent, quickly crossed the boundary and sneaked into the core circle.
As the heaven and earth phenomena occur, the location of the star gate's opening becomes clearer and clearer.
When Zhao Sheng took action, the other lurkers also used their magical powers to approach the star gate as quickly as possible.
Just when the spiritual energy rained down on the sky and the earth, turning into a massive amount of pure spiritual energy,
As the two great consciousnesses crossed time and space, a huge and magnificent vortex suddenly appeared on the sky, with a diameter of more than a hundred miles, with nine colors on the edges, but in the center was chaos, nothingness, darkness and mist.
The space-time vortex formed, the atmosphere howled and vibrated, and the spiritual energy boiled like a tide. An indescribable heaviness came from top to bottom. It seemed that the heaven and earth could not bear this invisible weight, and there was a faint crackling sound.
In just a dozen breaths, Zhao Sheng had "swum" a hundred miles and sneaked under the vortex of time and space. To be precise, he only reached the edge of the vortex before he had to stop.
Can't go any further.
Because at this time, many floating islands, large saucer boats and other behemoths have rushed to the bottom of the whirlpool, and the army is ready.
At this moment, within a few hundred miles below the vortex, vast divine thoughts were scanning back and forth unscrupulously, not sparing any corner of the sky or the earth.
Woohoo!
A moment later, a vast and long-lasting sound of a huge horn suddenly sounded between heaven and earth.
As the horn sounded, the war between the two worlds began again.
Zhao Sheng witnessed with his own eyes that one thousand-foot-long saucer boats rushed into the vortex of time and space without hesitation.
At the same time, huge floating fortresses with the characteristics of Tianzhu also crossed endless time and space and rushed over from the other side.
Seeing the enemy coming, a large number of monks rode huge monster birds and soared into the sky from the floating island. Under the leadership of each Jindan priest, they formed a square formation of Taoist soldiers and rushed towards the floating fortress.
At the same time, groups of immortal cultivators continued to fly out of the floating fortresses in the Tianzhu Realm, forming various Taoist legions and colliding head-on with the enemy.
Boom boom boom!
A series of super-level spells with great supernatural powers were cast by the Tao soldiers together. Seas of fire, hurricanes, forest of spears, rain of swords, and a tide of beasts were overwhelming. For a moment, they showed off their ferocity.
Suddenly, a large rain of blood suddenly fell from the sky, and countless corpses with broken arms fell from the sky to the sea, dyeing the sea blood.
The fighting lasted only a moment, and the war quickly intensified, with a large number of lives dissipating like bubbles.
At this time, the big bosses from the two realms of Nascent Soul and above were also dispatched one after another, either to catch each other and fight, or to fly into the Taoist formation and cause a bloody storm.
The war was very tragic, and people died every moment.
However, in Zhao Sheng's view, this war between the two worlds seemed fierce, but in fact it was full of pettiness, and its scale and brutality were far less than one-tenth of the battle of the Golden Wall.
Zhao Sheng always felt that this battle was a routine show between the two sides, as if it was for some existence to see.
Apart from anything else, from the beginning of the war to the present, not even a True Lord of Divine Transformation has appeared. This also verified Zhao Sheng's guess.
As far as he knows, every time the Star Gate is opened, the duration is different, ranging from long to short.
The shortest one occurred six hundred years ago and only lasted for two hours. At that time, no large war weapon had time to withdraw to the mainland, resulting in heavy casualties in both the Tianzhu and Youshen realms.
The longest one was in the first hundred years after the end of the war, to be exact, one thousand two hundred years ago, when the Star Gate was open for a full twenty-three days.
At that time, both worlds thought that the Star Gate might be permanently opened, so both sides went all out and deployed their armies. The scale of the war was beyond imagination, and its cruelty was no less than World War II.
So when the Star Gate suddenly closed, the top brass of both worlds were dumbfounded, and then they realized belatedly that everyone had been tricked by the Star God.
Perhaps everything was deliberately set up by the Star God to take revenge.
After that lesson, the top leaders of both worlds became very cautious and unanimously maintained the scale of the war at a certain scale. From that day on, the infiltration war began that continues to this day.
Ding!
Just as Zhao Sheng's eyes were patrolling the battlefield, looking for opportunities, an invisible voice suddenly sounded in his mind, and at the same time, a jade bead hanging around his neck flickered twice.
Zhao Sheng's eyes flashed, his consciousness penetrated into the jade bead, and he immediately sensed an invisible thread extending from dozens of miles away, ending in the jade bead.
In an instant, Zhao Sheng knew that there was a spy from Tianzhu on the other end of the thread, evading pursuit.
This bead is called the Tongxin Bead, a one-time spiritual weapon, its function is to connect and position.
However, as long as the secret agent does not expose his traces, the concentric beads will not be activated.
If it is truly aroused, it means that the secret agent is in an extremely dangerous situation and his life may be in danger at any time.
At this moment, Zhao Sheng sensed that the other side was quickly approaching him.
"pity...!"
Zhao Sheng sighed slightly, and then with a thought, the concentric beads around his neck suddenly turned into a ball of powder and melted into the surrounding sea water.
The next second, there was a wave of waves in the sea water, and Zhao Shengren had disappeared from where he was.
Twenty miles away, Fang Xinping sensed that the nearest light spot suddenly disappeared, and he became furious.
But in the next second, an extremely strong murderous intention approached from behind. The elite foundation builder of Ziyang Sect suddenly changed his expression and couldn't help but crush the heavenly escape talisman that was used to save his life.
In an instant, the person turned into a sky-shattering rainbow and fled to the direction of another concentric bead at an incredible speed.
…
One day later, the battle continued, but the intensity and the cries of killing were much weaker than at the beginning.
At this time, hundreds of miles of sea water had been dyed red with blood, and a large number of mutilated corpses were floating on the sea surface. Some seriously injured people who were not dead were soaking feebly in the sea water, moaning from time to time.
At this moment, a pale-faced old Taoist with a high crown, wearing an alchemy robe of the Alchemy Cauldron Sect, and exuding the aura of the Foundation Establishment Realm, slowly rose out of the sea, and commanded a pill furnace to fly towards the battlefield in the sky.
He seemed to want to return to the battlefield.
After a dozen breaths, Gaoguan Lao Dao flew ten thousand feet into the sky, surrounded by thousands of monks within a hundred miles who were fighting for their lives.
At this time, a middle-aged man in red robes a hundred feet away was overjoyed to see the old man with a high crown, and quickly shouted:
"Senior Brother Shukaku, come here quickly! Form a real fire formation with us quickly."
The old Taoist priest Gao Guan turned around and immediately flew over without any hesitation to join the four middle-aged people in red robes.
Soon, the five foundation-building monks of the Alchemy Sect joined forces to hold up a cloud of fire a hundred feet tall, and marched on the billowing red flames to fight against the enemies of the Nether God Realm.
With someone joining them, the four middle-aged men in red robes found that the battle became easier and easier, and all the enemies they fought fell into the sea one after another.
A full two hours passed, and none of the five of them was seriously injured. It was just that their spiritual energy was consumed too much, and they had to return to the floating fortress for repairs.
Zhao Sheng followed the four people and flew quietly into a floating fortress with a diameter of more than three thousand feet.
Looking at the size alone, this floating fortress is enough to hold two Yiyue-class cloud boats.
It has to be said that since ancient times, war has been the best catalyst.
Compared with more than a thousand years ago, the war fortresses in Tianzhu Realm have obviously made great progress.
From what Zhao Sheng could see, this floating fortress was covered with three layers of formation light shields. There were hundreds of dark holes more than ten feet thick on the outer wall of the fortress, with thick cannon muzzles protruding from the holes.
They are all spirit stone cannons.
In addition, Zhao Sheng saw six different formations through a cursory scan, with the lowest level of each being the second level.
But what surprised him was that the spirit stone cannon on the fortress didn't seem to be activated very often. Only when the surrounding immortal cultivators encountered a life-or-death crisis, it would occasionally shoot out thick beams of light.
However, Zhao Sheng soon realized that there seemed to be a serious lack of spiritual stones in Tianzhu Realm.
Because not only this fortress, but also the three small fortresses near it.
However, these are not what he should be concerned about now.
Zhao Sheng has now successfully blended in, and is hiding on the fortress, waiting for the star gate to close, and then retreats to the Tianzhu Realm with the army.
Zhao Sheng's plan was not unreasonable. In fact, most of the other Tianzhu secret agents also used the same method to return to their own world.
There was just one sentence that he didn't expect.
The so-called man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation!
Zhao Sheng wants to return to his own world with the fragments of heaven.
However, how could the heavenly ways of the Nether God Realm allow him to get through so easily?
At the moment Zhao Sheng boarded the fortress, on a floating island thirty miles away, a middle-aged Taoist priest with a strong build and disheveled hair suddenly opened his eyes on an inexplicable whim.
If Zhao Sheng comes here again, he will be extremely surprised, because this is none other than his nominal senior brother... Li Daoxing!
