Although he openly refused Shen Changqing's solicitation, he was actually a little tempted.
It's just that Tianlei Holy Land is of great importance, and it doesn't mean that merging with Tianzong can be done immediately.
Shen Changqing didn't stop anything.
Anyway, it was a sudden whim for him to absorb the Heavenly Thunder Holy Land.
It is not strange for Holy Lord Tianlei to refuse.
Even if the other party really wants to join Tianlei Holy Land, it is not that easy to make a decision, and Shen Changqing can naturally wait.
His target is not just the Heavenly Thunder Holy Land.
Including the Taikoo Alliance, Nine Star Sect and other forces, they are all in Shen Changqing's target.
but.
It is not that easy to truly merge these forces into Tianzong.
If Tianlei Holy Land can be the first to agree, then it will be much easier to sway other sects' ideas with Tianlei Holy Land as a prerequisite.
Shen Changqing's current goal is to incorporate Tianlei Holy Land into Tianzong first.
"This matter cannot be rushed, but the seeds have been planted, and it is only a matter of time before Tianlei Holy Land is merged into Tianzong.
When Holy Master Tianlei sees the background of Tianzong, understands the gap between the two and the benefits of joining Tianzong, everything will naturally fall into place."
Shen Changqing is confident that Tianlei Holy Land will not be able to escape from his grasp after all.
Later.
Shen Changqing's eyes fell on the thunder pool.
For others, the entrance to Leize Cave above the Lei Pond is invisible, but such blocking actions will naturally have no impact on Shen Changqing.
Take one step forward.
Shen Changqing had already entered Leize Cave.
The terrifying power of thunder raged, and at the same time, a familiar aura came.
This breath.
Naturally, Shen Changqing has integrated into Lei Ze's brand over the years.
As long as Shen Changqing is willing, he can fully mobilize Lei Ze's power for his own use.
but--
The ancient Lei Ze in his heyday was extremely terrifying. If he wanted to activate all of Lei Ze's power, Shen Changqing couldn't do it yet, but there would be no problem if he just borrowed part of Lei Ze's power.
Go deeper into Leize step by step.
The power of thunder raging all around became more and more terrifying.
Even if Shen Changqing can activate Lei Ze's power, it does not mean that he can be completely immune to Lei Ze's thunder power.
Make a mark.
It just allows Shen Changqing to develop some affinity for Lei Ze's power, so that he can be immune to this power to a certain extent, but it cannot truly be 100% immune.
As we continue to deepen.
Shen Changqing also gradually felt a pressure.
This powerful pressure can scare away any ordinary god-king, and even the god-emperor must face it with caution.
but.
Shen Changqing's physical body has already been tempered to the seventh level of the Divine Lord. Coupled with Lei Ze's affinity, even if he steps into such a depth, he can barely withstand it.
Looking into the depths of Leize, Shen Changqing took a deep breath and stepped deeper again.
boom!
The terrifying thunder raged, causing his body to instantly crack. There was golden divine light flowing through the broken skin, but no blood was seen flowing down.
Less than a breath.
Cracked skin is completely healed.
But the next breath.
The skin cracked again.
So back and forth.
It's like being trapped in an endless reincarnation.
"It seems like this is the limit!"
Shen Changqing looked calm. With his current strength, it was naturally impossible for him to truly step into the core of Lei Ze.
If you continue to go deeper, you will only destroy yourself.
so.
It's just right at this location.
Shen Changqing simply did not go any further, but stayed where he was, closed his eyes, and began to understand the power of Lei Ze Avenue, and use Lei Ze Avenue to help him speed up the unification of all laws.
As for the physical body, it passively withstands the tempering of Lei Ze's power.
The Hunyuan Holy Body Technique was created by Shen Changqing himself. The operation of this secret skill is engraved in the muscle memory. Even if Shen Changqing does not practice it deliberately, he will practice it independently when stimulated by external forces.
The only flaw.
This kind of passive cultivation will naturally slow down a lot, and it is not as fast as practicing with all your strength.
but.
The speed reduction is also relative.
Cultivating in a treasure like Ancient Leize is completely unmatched by other places.
Even though I am practicing passively, I am making rapid progress.
now.
Shen Changqing's mind has completely sunk into the ancient Leize. Under the influence of Leize Avenue, the power of the rules of reincarnation has also emerged.
The shadow of the Avenue Sacred Tree appeared.
The power of all rules is manifested one by one.
The blood-colored river runs across the void, and the dark Tao Fruit exudes a breathtaking killing aura, as if it can suppress all the ways in the world.
Many blood-colored roots grow from Tao fruit seeds, like strange tentacles, sinking into the long river of rules of Wan Dao, absorbing the power of Wan Dao little by little to nourish themselves.
With the power of a large number of rules accumulated, the aura emitted by the Dao Fruit becomes more and more terrifying, and the bloody river slowly grows.
It's just that this growth process is very slow and almost imperceptible to the naked eye.
Moreover, the long river condensed by ten thousand rules is equally vast and boundless. Even if it is continuously absorbed by the blood-colored roots, it will not be reduced at all.
This is a process of the unification of all things.
The root tentacles are Shen Changqing's understanding of the Kendo of Killing, using it as a medium to gradually integrate the power of the Ten Thousand Rules into the Kendo of Killing.
but.
This process is an extremely slow process.
In addition, Shen Changqing proves the Tao based on the true rules of ten thousand ways. Naturally, it is not that easy to unify all things.
But that’s what practice is.
What matters is accumulation.
You can't reach a thousand miles without taking small steps.
It is basically impossible to achieve success overnight.
Fortunately.
Shen Changqing is not in a hurry now.
After all, there is no rush to practice.
Now that the situation in the world has slowed down a bit, it also gave him time to gradually improve.
…
Years pass.
The power of ancient Leize continues to rage.
Shen Changqing is like an eternal rock, no matter how raging the power of thunder is, he never wavers at all.
When he entered Leize Cave Heaven's 100th year.
Shen Changqing's body was shaken, and the sword of killing transformed, allowing him to directly break through from the second level of Dao Fruit to the third level of Dao Fruit.
Cultivation level promotion.
Shen Changqing did not interrupt his cultivation, but continued to retreat.
Another two hundred and forty years have passed.
The Killing Sword Dao breaks through again, allowing it to enter the fourth level of Dao Fruit.
But even so.
Shen Changqing also did not come out.
The ten levels of Tao and Fruit.
He has only stepped into the fourth level of Dao Fruit now.
The path of spiritual practice is difficult and long. As time goes by, Shen Changqing has gradually become accustomed to long periods of retreat.
…
"call!"
In the imperial capital of the Tianlei Region, in the main hall of the palace secret room, Gu Xing let out a long breath, and the terrifying aura shook the space, like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring, and the entire country was enveloped in a terrifying aura.
But it takes a moment.
This breath just disappeared.
Gu Xing opened his eyes with a satisfied smile on his face.
"The fourth level of Dao Immortal, it's done!"
this moment.
Gu Xing has truly realized the benefits of top talent.
In the past, even if he received the blessing of human luck and a large amount of resources, it took him so many years to break through to the second level of Dao Immortal.
Look now.
The previous cultivation is abolished.
Gu Xing had made every effort, and it only took about 460 years to successfully cultivate from the tenth level of Dongtian to the Taoist Immortal realm. Not to mention, he also surpassed the peak of previous realms and broke through to the fourth level of Taoist Immortal in one go.
Don't look at the difference between the second level of Taoist Immortal and the fourth level of Taoist Immortal. There are only two small realms, but therein lies the difference between the primary level of Taoist Immortal and the intermediate level of Taoist Immortal.
and.
Gu Xing can feel it.
The fourth level of Dao Immortal is not your limit.
If practice in the past was equivalent to a person who couldn't swim and was thrown into the water and struggled to survive, then he is now equivalent to a natural swimming fish, swimming freely in the water.
If he had cultivated with his former talent, he would have been able to advance from the second level to the third level in 460 years, not to mention the fourth level of Dao Immortal.
After all, the difficulty of practicing in the Dao Immortal realm is not comparable to that in the True Immortal Cave Heaven.
now.
After swallowing two lotus seeds of the God of Creation, Gu Xing's talent is comparable to that of the top geniuses.
Precisely.
Even the talents of many unparalleled geniuses are far inferior to him.
One divine lotus seed can give a monk the potential to be an unparalleled genius. Two divine lotus seeds are enough to break this barrier.
Said without politeness.
If placed in other eras, the level of Gu Xing could be compared to suppressing the supreme genius of an era.
The qualifications of a supreme genius.
Coordinate with the opportunity of great catastrophe.
Practicing in Guxing is naturally like having divine help.
"The fourth level of Dao Immortal is not enough. If you want to truly revitalize the imperial court, you must have stronger strength. At least you must break through the Dao Fruit realm."
The excitement on Gu Xing's face quickly cooled down. The fourth level of Dao Immortal was indeed worthy of celebration, but for now, the fourth level of Dao Immortal could only show off its power in the human race.
Looking at all the races in the world, the fourth level of Taoist Immortal is still not at the top.
so.
Gu Xing set a small goal for himself, first break through the Dao Fruit and then talk about it.
"but……"
"Before that, it's time to deal with the matters in the court!"
After being in seclusion for four hundred and sixty years, there must be a lot of affairs in the imperial court. Although there are many ministers here, nothing major will happen, but no matter what, Gu Xing has to show up.
Once the emperor.
It would be unreasonable to retreat into seclusion for tens of thousands of years without appearing.
Moreover.
Gu Xing is not very old now. Counting the 460 years of seclusion, he is probably only in his early 1000s.
It would be difficult for him to live in seclusion for tens of thousands of years.
so.
After calming down his breathing for a while, Gu Xing left the border directly.
The news that the Human Emperor had broken through to the fourth level of Dao Immortal spread quickly, causing the entire imperial court to be shaken.
Everyone knows it.
When Gu Xing was in seclusion, he was only at the second level of Taoist Immortal. If he had broken through to the fourth level of Taoist Immortal in just over 400 years, such an advancement in cultivation would be considered extremely astonishing.
And during the retreat period in Guxing, some rumors also appeared among the world.
But as Gu Xing came out of seclusion and his cultivation level soared, all the rumors and problems disappeared.
