Lu Zhong's aura gradually dimmed, his eyelids trembled slightly at this moment, he slowly opened his eyes, shook the elixir bottle in his hand, and showed a look of unfinished meaning.
"Jiuhua Lingmiaodan is indeed a ninth-grade elixir!"
In just a hundred years, with the help of this elixir, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and he has reached the level of the Four Realm Heavenly Immortals. Compared with before, his strength can be said to have improved significantly with the naked eye.
This rate of progress is truly incredible.
This also makes Lu Zhong understand that what limits the rapid advancement of the immortals in the immortal world is the extremely scarce resources, not the monks' own qualifications.
"No wonder...Tiandao will use soul pills to restrict low-level monks."
Suddenly something dawned on him.
If not, I'm afraid the fairy world will be overcrowded before long.
"But why... can true immortals last forever?"
Lu Zhong had read many classics, even those from Yinloudao Palace, which said that after becoming an immortal, one would live as long as heaven and earth and would not be affected by disasters, and there was no theory of overcoming tribulations.
"Could this be the difference between the old and new laws?"
And... what kind of rank does the one and only true immortal he takes belong to?
"Another mystery of the unknown."
Lu Zhong sighed quietly.
Even though he has become an immortal through cultivation, he is not omniscient about things in the world: "When it comes to omniscience and omnipotence, I'm afraid even Tian Daozi can't achieve this, right?"
Immediately, I stopped thinking about it and turned my attention to other aspects.
Soon, the summarized external news came from the incarnation.
The surrounding situation is not optimistic.
As the Shattered War started again, the battle between the Corridor Palace and the Dusk Palace became more and more fierce day by day. Countless monks died on the battlefield as a result. But even if the mountains and rivers collapsed and the void was burned, they would not be able to survive.
No one side has the upper hand, and everything seems to be repeating itself.
Affected by this, the land of the bright moon has been in chaos recently.
Even Baidao Immortal City and Luoxia Immortal City were affected by this, and many monks lost their lives. The population in the city became increasingly sparse, adding to the aura of decadence and decay.
After learning this result, Lu Zhong was a little silent.
One thing that is not difficult to guess is that if the war continues to expand and spread, sooner or later he will be involved in it.
What's even more ominous is that recently there has been news about the incarnation he left behind in the Linghuan world. Taiyin Patriarch has observed signs of the ebb of the vitality of the world.
This may be caused by monks in the immortal world having frequent martial arts battles and excessive consumption of the vitality of heaven and earth.
Once the vitality "ebbs", the spiritual energy produced by the spiritual veins will also be affected.
The end of the Dharma era may also come.
"There is no way out..."
Lu Zhong smiled bitterly after a long time, and couldn't help but think of many things in his mind.
For example, the Immortal Realm has such a long history, but the Qinghe Realm only lasts less than a million years. This is probably due to the arrival of the Age of Ending Law caused by the last Shattering War.
Coincidentally, there was also a dark and turbulent period in the Linghuan world.
Although it is not the Age of Dharma End, it is still a time when competition among monks is extremely fierce. This is probably due to the ebbing of the vitality of heaven and earth, resulting in extreme scarcity of resources.
All in all, I can no longer extricate myself from being here.
Whether it is the fairy world or the spiritual world, it will inevitably be affected.
"Perhaps, we can survive this difficult time by sleeping and hiding in a secret place... But this is tantamount to passive response and is inconsistent with my Taoist heart."
Escape has never been his style.
Lu Zhong shook his head, gave up the idea of escaping from the world, and turned to look at the files on the table. Finally, his eyes were fixed on the empty pill bottle, and he murmured to himself:
"It seems that the only way to advance bravely is through the rapids!"
As a heavenly being, his ability to protect himself is beyond ninety-nine percent of the creatures in the immortal world.
If you can break through to the Golden Immortal realm before the crisis comes, your chances of survival will be even higher.
This is much safer than running away.
...
Time flies, and hundreds of years have passed.
This year, the incarnation of Qujun broke through to the Mahayana stage.
At the same time, the two most important incarnations of Lu Zhong, that is, the underworld incarnation and the Taiyin incarnation, both stepped into the realm of true immortals. As long as the time is right, they can overcome the disaster and become immortals.
But after all the happy events, crisis followed.
First of all, due to the impact of the war, the Land of Bright Moon is gradually being eroded.
Either it belongs to Tianxing Dao Palace, or it belongs to Dusk, Yinlou and Liandao Palace. This once paradise of scattered immortals will finally disappear due to the spread of war.
The time may be sooner or later, no more than ten thousand years.
The reason why this is a crisis is because after the territory is annexed, the original dojo owners will immediately receive forced recruitment. Unless they choose the dojo they obtained with difficulty, they will have to go to the battlefield.
It won't be a narrow escape, but it will still take off a layer of skin.
It is such a crisis that makes Lu Zhong's sense of urgency even greater: "Two million years... Counting the acceleration of Fang Hu's time, I may be able to break through to the Golden Immortal level before the crisis comes."
Until then, he will be able to obtain the Tao of time and space.
By then, the strength will surely increase dramatically.
...
Misty Fairy City.
At this time, some time has passed since the previous beast chaos.
Coupled with the great chaos in the fairy world, the number of monks taking refuge is increasing day by day. As a result, the Miao Miao Fairy City, which has a slightly special status, has become increasingly prosperous and is regarded as a good place of refuge.
In the Piaomiao Palace, Lu Zhong was invited by Zhuiyue and others.
The four of them walked into the hall side by side. Elegant furnishings had been changed inside, and a banquet had already been set up. The wine, fruits, and even spiritual food used were all of the highest quality. A small bite could make a monk in the lower realm advance by leaps and bounds.
After the dishes have passed through the five flavors, Zhuiyue expresses his invitation idea with the help of a toast.
"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Chen would be willing to help us repair the Misty Immortal City Formation?"
"Repair the formation?"
Lu Zhong put down the wine glass in his hand, looked at Fairy Chaiyue in the hall, and asked curiously: "What level of formation is it? If it is an immortal level, please forgive me for not being able to do anything."
This is true, the Immortal Formation already involves laws.
He didn't know much about it, let alone repairing the formation.
"Fellow Taoist, you don't need to worry too much. You just need to copy and engrave it." Zhuiyue smiled and sent a jade slip to Lu Zhong's table: "What is recorded in the jade slip is the formation map given by the Corridor Palace.
The formation in Piaomiao Immortal City was set up by the monks from Yinloudao Palace. Now that the formation is broken, we only need to repair it according to the formation diagram."
Foolish operation.
This idea suddenly appeared in Lu Zhong's mind.
The Yinlou Dao monk who set up the formation for Piao Miao Immortal City back then probably had similar thoughts when he left this jade slip.
He read it a little and felt somewhat confident.
The formation map was very detailed, and he could just follow the diagram to repair it. Moreover, Fairy Chaiyue and others had also specially marked the parts that needed to be repaired.
"How about it? As long as fellow Taoist is willing to take action, we can offer you five thousand immortal jade."
Fairy Chaiyue said a little impatiently.
Seeing the war spreading and the dangers in the outside world getting higher and higher day by day, Fairy Chaiyue, Gao Wan, and Shi Zhongzi were all as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
The only solution is to completely repair the Misty Immortal City Formation.
