Chapter 499: Lingchao Hegemony, Surviving Five Tribulations in a Row
There was a clear record in the research records of that Qianxuan Sanxian.
That is, countless billions of years ago, after the war that affected an unknown number of cultivation worlds and lasted for an unknown number of years ended.
The Hanyuan Realm Group, which completely defeated the strange world group on the other side, and then completely annexed the other side's tens of millions of new worlds, truly established the magnificent scene of "billions of heavens" like today.
And the core of the world group that ended the war and achieved complete victory, Ge Miao World, also took a fancy to Tianmui and chose Tianmui as a substitute for Xianmo.
Subsequently, under the will of Master Yuanmo, the Ge Miao world used various hegemonic means to force all the cultivation worlds in the group that were rich in heavenly essence to sign many treaties and agreements with it.
The content of the treaty is that the trade of hundreds of millions of heavenly essences between the worlds must be settled in spiritual currency.
At this point, Lingchao hegemony was once again established in the world of Gemiao.
And this time, the hegemony established based on Tianmui is far more stable and terrifying than the hegemony of Xianmo.
Because any world of cultivation, whether it has developed into the Void Age or not, or whether there are a large number of ancient Void ships, will inevitably have a great demand for Tianmui.
However, not all worlds produce this spiritual material, Tianmui, or the output is variable.
Qianxuan, for example, is a world where the output of Heavenly Essence is relatively small.
Basically, more than half of its Heavenly Essence needs to be imported at a high price from Yunheng World in order to maintain the normal construction and operation of a large number of teleportation arrays and teleportation gates in many regions in the world.
As for the five major sects that controlled the only entrance and exit channel of Qianxuan, they also gained huge benefits from it.
This benefit includes a large number of physical objects such as spiritual money, spiritual materials and spiritual plants, as well as the influence and control over many medium and large sects, organizations, and forces that rely on the Tianmui for their existence.
The reason why the five major sects can firmly dominate the Qianxuan ruling class is also related to this to a certain extent.
In short, it is similar to the Qianxuan world. No matter which world of cultivation, as long as it is not in that undeveloped barbaric stage, it must be inseparable from Tianmui.
As a result, the billions of worlds in the Hanyuan Realm Group can no longer escape the shackles of spiritual currency, the inter-dimensional currency.
Since then, the world of Gemiao has begun to print large amounts of spiritual money to purchase goods from other worlds.
In order for the billions of world to survive, it can only continue to increase its own spiritual foreign exchange reserves.
But all these require the various worlds to exchange a large number of their own production of magical arrays, spiritual mines, spiritual plants, and even magic techniques and other practical resources to obtain them.
And this plays into the hands of Ge Miao World.
Because as long as there are places where spiritual banknotes are circulated and used, they will have seigniorage revenue.
So what is seigniorage?
Simply put, seigniorage is the difference between the face value of a banknote and the cost of producing the banknote.
For example, the cost of a spiritual note with a face value of 10,000 is only one yuan.
The price difference is 9999 yuan, which is the seigniorage tax.
This one is pretty small.
Like some very large denominations of spiritual banknotes, such as one trillion yuan.
The cost is still not more than one yuan, but the price difference... has reached nearly one trillion.
This is also a seigniorage tax.
This is the huge amount of income that Ge Miao World earns for free every moment.
Correspondingly, hundreds of millions of cultivators in the world will also rely on various methods to obtain, or in other words, earn spiritual coins to purchase the Heavenly Essence.
But what to do with the excess?
If it is allowed to flow into the industry, it will cause inflation in the industry, and then shake the entire economic system and even the ruling system.
Therefore, the various worlds can only choose to purchase various illusory financial products such as futures, options and even bonds in the world of Gemiao, so that the spiritual money will continue to flow back into the world of Gemiao.
The Gemiao World will use these spiritual coins to buy a large amount of resources from the Billion World.
There is no need to print too many spiritual banknotes. You only need to use low-value paper to buy spiritual banknotes from other worlds, and eventually form a stable return system.
In other words, hundreds of millions of worlds are waiting to be forced into the chariot of spiritual money by Ge Miao World or Master Yuanmo.
The spiritual currency falls, and the world of billions falls.
The spiritual currency is stable, and the billions of worlds are stable.
Interests are linked and difficult to separate.
The world of Gemiao, which has nothing to do with production, makes money with nothing. It can easily control the economic lifeline of hundreds of millions of sentient beings in the world simply through the hegemony of spiritual money.
As long as the trade circulation of all walks of life cannot be separated from the spiritual currency, the world of Gemiao can control the interest rate cuts and raises to pluck the wool of all walks of life and harvest the flesh and blood of all walks of life at will.
In summary, the series of methods used by Ge Miao World are obviously more convenient and faster than direct robbery, and they also save worry and effort.
As long as the invincible Master Yuanmo exists, there is no need for him to take action or worry at all.
At every moment, there will naturally be countless resources flowing from the world of billions of cultivators to the world of Ge Miao, for everyone to enjoy and squander.
"It's really a worry-free and labor-saving method of exploitation, but..."
Chen Sanyu smiled softly, "It's not suitable for me."
Although the ancient cluster is biased towards idealism, it is not truly pure idealism after all.
Therefore, almost all monks in this world are still extremely dependent on various external resources in terms of their cultivation path and daily life.
But Chen Sanyu was different.
His cultivation and progress do not require many resources.
Even if he sits quietly or wanders around casually every day without any interaction with external spiritual energy and various resources, Chen Sanyu's cultivation level will skyrocket out of thin air.
Now his only needs from the outside world are the growth of Taoism brought about by sentient beings' loans and cultivation, and the rules and information exchanged from the Dao of Heaven with merit.
And now the first demand - the growth of Taoism - is almost coming to an end.
Yes, after nearly half an hour, Chen Sanyu was finally about to reach the peak of Hedao.
"one two three……"
He kept silent in his mind for tens of seconds:
"……ten."
With the "full support" of countless sentient beings in the entire Qianxuan world, Chen Sanyu's realm suddenly reached the peak of Hedao without any sound.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Immediately afterwards, all of his terrifying powers that were trillions of times the peak level of Hedao were unsealed.
boom--
In an instant, all phenomena within a radius of billions and billions of miles, the changes and flows of the universe, yin and yang, were all included in Chen Sanyu's perception and control.
As long as he thought about it at this moment, the entire vast Qianxuan world containing hundreds of millions of areas and infinite sentient beings would be reduced to nothing in an instant, or distorted beyond recognition.
At the same time, Chen Sanyu also realized in his heart that... as long as ten more breaths pass, the catastrophe will come.
If you cannot survive the catastrophe, everything will come to an end;
After surviving the catastrophe, you will ascend to the upper realm.
"Are you so impatient...Tiandao."
He slowly raised his head to look at the boundless sky and smiled jokingly, "You want me to ascend and then collect my debt?
Haha, what a delusion, I just won’t ascend.”
It stands to reason that after a monk reaches the peak of Hedao, he will have to wait at least another thousand years or even longer before there are signs of heavenly catastrophe.
But Chen Sanyu is better.
As soon as he reached the peak of Hedao, Tiandao was impatient to bring disaster and wanted to settle the huge debt with him.
Chen Sanyu was unwilling to do this.
Because he himself doesn’t know how much wool he has harvested from Tiandao.
He just knew that this debt must be extremely huge, so huge that even if all the countless sentient beings in the Qianxuan World were squeezed dry into juice, they would still be far from being able to repay it.
"Since we can't afford it now, let's talk about it later and put it aside for later discussion."
Chen Sanyu looked relaxed and immediately began to practice the method of avoiding disasters of loose immortals, planning to specialize in the way of loose immortals.
Set a small goal, cultivate to a hundred kalpas and then ascend.
A Hundred Tribulations Loose Immortal, no matter what, he can trample the top Earth Immortal like a bug.
While leisurely thinking about it, Chen Sanyu used only one ten thousandth of a breath to fully understand the thousands of years of practice that even those at the peak of Hedao had to master.
After another breath, Chen Sanyu's body and spirit began to undergo various subtle changes.
He officially became a loose immortal.
Click click click!!!
At the end of the endless gray sky, bursts of thunder suddenly shook the sky, as if there were endless world-shaking thunders ready to strike, about to strike down.
At the same time, there are billions of roaring and rolling strange black winds that are majestic, thick, and wildly dancing like ancient black snakes, as well as the gray wind that spreads its teeth and claws like the beards of the world-corrupting devil for countless billions of miles in the sky. The great tide of turbid and scorching fire appeared out of thin air, blowing and scorching toward Chen Sanyu from all directions of the world, such as the southeast, northwest, and northwest.
This is the eternal punishment of heaven.
Normally speaking, after a peak saint transforms into a loose immortal, he must advance his cultivation level at least a thousand times before facing his first heavenly punishment.
However, Chen Sanyu is not an ordinary situation.
His level of cultivation has far surpassed that of the One-Calamity Loose Immortal by a trillion times.
Therefore, as soon as Chen Sanyu transformed into a Sanxian, he faced his first divine punishment in this world.
According to the memories of the immortals of Qianxuan, it can be known that the so-called heavenly punishment and the calamity of ascension are actually the same in form and content.
They all contain three disasters and three disasters.
This first disaster, the thunder disaster, refers to the Nine-Nine Universe Mysterious Thunder.
This thunder comes from the unknown realm deep in the space and time of this universe, and is a partial manifestation of the principles of creation.
Once someone who is being robbed appears, this mysterious thunder will span an infinite distance under the will of heaven and appear above, in front, behind, below, etc. anywhere of the robbed person.
After gathering into a violent sea of thunder, they struck the victim with ninety-nine eighty-one blasts, each of which could evaporate hundreds of thousands of galaxies.
If you can withstand it, you will be considered to have passed this test, and you can use this to strengthen your body and condense your magic power.
If you can't bear it, then you will end your life and everything will be lost.
This second disaster, fire, refers to the yin fire of Jiuyou Huangquan.
This fire is not an extraordinary fire, but a yin fire from the underworld that comes from the negative side of time and space in this universe. It is a partial manifestation of the Netherworld Principles.
It can burn into the body regardless of defense, penetrate the limbs to refine the soul, and burn the internal organs.
Therefore, as soon as the yin fire is ignited, if the limbs and five internal organs of the victim are not tempered deeply, they will be burned into pieces of ashes in an instant, and all the hard work of hundreds of millions of years will become an illusion.
The third disaster, wind disaster, refers to the wind caused by thousands of dusty karma.
Wind disasters are not the winds of the world, but the winds blowing from the depths of the hearts of countless sentient beings in the endless universe, the good and evil thoughts of humanity, and are partially manifested images of the spiritual path.
Therefore, this wind can also ignore the various physical defenses of the victim, penetrate the Dantian and penetrate the nine orifices, blow away the three souls and scatter the seven souls, causing heart failure and physical exhaustion, and eventually the bones and flesh will become sparse and the soul will disintegrate.
In addition to these three disasters, there are also three difficulties that do not appear in physical form.
The first difficulty is the separation of the Qi method.
Under the influence of this invisible disaster, if the true energy of the person being robbed is not condensed sufficiently, its operation will be chaotic and out of control to varying degrees.
The second difficulty is empty and evil thoughts.
Under the influence of this difficulty, a variety of false and evil thoughts will appear in the minds of those who have been robbed when they are going through the tribulation, which will greatly disrupt their mental consciousness.
The third difficulty is that the true self is unreal.
This difficulty is the most dangerous and heinous one. Under its influence, those affected will experience thousands of reincarnations in just one thought.
If his will is mediocre and his mind is weak, he may become confused and 'trapped' in an illusory reincarnation.
This then caused the victim to completely forget everything in reality, and in a daze he was blasted to death by Xuan Lei, burned to death by Yin Fire, and blown to death by the wind.
However, this kind of disaster, which can only match the target's thousand times of the peak level of Hedao in terms of intensity, is meaningless to Chen Sanyu.
So facing the boundless mysterious thunder, yin fire, and wind that were attacking from all directions, he just stood up leisurely and slowly opened his mouth.
Wow——
In an instant, a gigantic and boundless sky-lifting maw suddenly appeared between the world and the earth. As soon as it appeared, it swept across the boundless sky and the vast earth. Its power was terrifying enough to destroy thousands of people.
The three natural disasters of the domain were swallowed up in one go.
Afterwards, Chen Sanyu grunted and swallowed it with a calm expression.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! As for the invisible three difficulties that directly refer to mana, mind, and will, for Chen Sanyu, who is essentially the projection of Mu Cang's divinity, it is as weak as if it were not there at all.
After the three disasters disappeared, they also naturally disappeared simultaneously.
After surviving this calamity, his physical strength and mana concentration suddenly increased by a thousand times.
But at the same time, Chen Sanyu's move seemed to anger Heaven.
As soon as he swallowed the heavenly punishment, the boundless sky above the entire Qianxuan world suddenly shook violently.
Boom boom boom boom——
Accompanied by this huge movement that shocked and stunned hundreds of millions of sentient beings in the area, there were unexpectedly one after another terrifying sea of thunder exploding blue and purple, one after another overwhelming tide of Yin Fire, billions upon billions of black strands.
The group of Jifeng 'dragons' from purgatory appeared out of thin air in the boundless sky above every domain inside and outside the Qianxuan world.
This, surprisingly, is the second heavenly punishment in the world, the third heavenly punishment in the world, the fourth heavenly punishment in the world, the fifth heavenly punishment in the world... they have arrived together.
In an instant, the aura of destruction that was so vast that it was boundless and at the same time so thick that it suffocated the heaven and earth, covered all corners of the Qianxuan world and all living creatures in the billions of areas.
Countless sentient beings who have fallen into boundless despair have inexplicably realized that if these disasters befall Qianxuan, this world will be turned into powder.
Just when countless billions of sentient beings were in deep despair, Chen Sanyu took action again.
He was hanging in the vast sky, with one hand behind his back and the other raised leisurely.
He pointed his two fingers together into a sword, and with one click pointed at the endless rolling thunder, torrential fire, and roaring wind in the distant sky, and said coldly:
"The general trend of the seven swords following the sky - the cycle of birth and death."
Buzz——
Suddenly, the vast Qianxuan world with a radius of billions and billions of miles, and the four levels of heavenly punishment that enveloped the entire Qianxuan billions of realms, suddenly came to a standstill.
It's like time has stopped moving forward here.
After that, the endless thunder sea, fire tide, and wind group suddenly collapsed and disappeared.
And Chen Sanyu also crossed several realms at the same moment and stopped at the level of the Five Tribulations Loose Immortal.
