One hundred years have passed in the spiritual world, and one year has passed in the outside world.
In the past year, the whole world has been in turmoil, and extraordinary beings have appeared one after another. The powerful power has shocked the world and impacted the old order.
The breathing method, which is simplified and adapted from the Changchun Sutra, has become popular among the people. Even the aunts who dance in the square will do a piece of breathing before dancing.
There are more spiritual courses in various campuses, which are included in the end-of-year assessment, and outstanding students can receive generous scholarships.
In the streets and alleys, what is discussed is no longer the gossip about a certain celebrity, but the influential figures in various fields of practice.
In this strong atmosphere of nationwide spiritual practice, Mingshan City, as the birthplace of the Great Xia Kingdom, has a large number of practitioners. Many people come here just to take a closer look at the headquarters of the Special Investigation Bureau.
But today, all unrelated people were asked to stay away from the headquarters of the Special Investigation Bureau.
Many extraordinary people from all over the country gathered in the hall of the headquarters.
Not all of them are immortal cultivators, some are ancient warriors, and some have supernatural powers, and they are gathered here today to discuss a major event that affects the supernatural world.
Guo Changyong stood on the high platform and said loudly:
"Currently, we have received reliable information that the Life Council of the Western Kingdom has passed a trans-oceanic resolution. The superpowers and vampires will take action against the Eastern Alliance in the near future."
"Do you know which country it is?"
"How many people will be dispatched this time?"
There was a lot of discussion in the conference room. This was the first time that Xiguo had launched such a formal attack.
Guo Changyong took out a glass ball from his pocket. There was a drop of blood sealed in the ball. Inspired by his magic power, the video recorded in the blood was projected on the curtain.
In the picture, under the brightly lit dome hall, MPs in suits were shaking blood glasses, talking and laughing loudly.
"Hahaha, with everyone joining us this time, the little Donglai Kingdom will definitely win!"
"This time, our Andrew family will dispatch 60 people with superpowers and 100 people from the vampire family."
"My Falon family has 50 superpowers..."
"..."
"The Donglai Kingdom has a population of hundreds of millions. After the occupation, the population will be divided accordingly according to your contribution! The attack time is set for October 18th!"
At the end of the video, everyone's faces looked ugly.
"Horn, William, Carlos..."
These familiar faces used to be capital tycoons, but now they have become the blood clan of the extraordinary world behind the scenes of the Western Kingdom. They have raised a large number of civilians in captivity, and their strength is very terrifying.
"Director Guo, this time the Western Council is making a big move. With our current strength, we are no match for a head-on confrontation!"
"That's right. As long as you eat the Fruit of Melia from the Western Kingdom, you will gain a special power. No one knows what this superpower is, so it's hard to guard against it!"
It's not that everyone is timid, it's because they suffered a lot from dealing with the supernatural world of the Western Kingdom in the past. Those who took the Fruit of Melia awakened all kinds of strange powers.
"You are not allowed to wear shoes when walking", "You must wear shoes when walking", "Walking on a crawl"... these seemingly rubbish powers, when combined together, will cause confusion in the behavior of unsuspecting extraordinary beings.
Everyone looked at Guo Changyong on the high platform again. Since he knew the situation and summoned everyone, he must have his own solution.
Guo Changyong did not disappoint everyone. He took out a bundle of talismans, distributed them, and said:
"This is an incapacitating talisman jointly developed by us and our friends from the West. Once activated, it will temporarily protect you from the effects of supernatural powers."
As soon as everyone got the talisman, they recognized the material it was made of at a glance, which was the branch of the Merian Tree of Life, and couldn't help but look at Guo Changyong a few more times.
The Melian Tree of Life is so protected by the Western Kingdom that not even a fly can fly in. Even if a leaf falls, it has to undergo several approval procedures. Who is this friend from the Western Kingdom, and how can he have such great energy!
"Moreover, what we have to do is not to confront them head-on. We have already obtained their accurate route, and we only need to quietly sink their ship. Remember, we cannot leave any traces of Daxia Kingdom." Guo Changyong added
road.
"That's it, that's no problem."
"Hey, these superpowers are as weak as chickens when they encounter the sea."
Everyone laughed, no longer worried at all, and began to discuss the reward for the action.
After Guo Changyong finished presiding over the meeting, he came to another smaller conference room.
Here, the truly top transcendent person in Daxia Kingdom has already taken his seat.
Lu Qing is on the 5th level of Qi Refining, Ji Mian and Zhuo Li are on the 4th level of Qi Refining, Xie Shaohui is a casual cultivator on the 4th level of Qi Refining, and Guo Changyong is on the 4th level of Qi Refining.
These are all the middle-stage Qi Refining monks in Daxia Guoming today, and all of them enjoy great reputations in the supernatural world.
"This Western Kingdom is indeed possessed by a demon, and its methods are too cruel. They even directly buried these extraordinary people." Lu Qing said.
"It's all for resources. It's too easy to cultivate their extraordinary beings, and the consumption is too high." Xie Shaohui said.
"However, this is also a good thing. We don't want to see a Western country that is too powerful. They themselves hate so many people competing with them for resources." Guo Changyong picked up the thermos cup and took a sip of tea with a relaxed expression.
"After these old capitalists entered the new era, they became real vampires. They were so skilled at betraying their own people that these extraordinary people who went to sea must have thought they were really going to open up territories."
When Zhuo Li thought of those old actors from Western countries in the video, he felt that his business father was as pure as paper.
"Those who go to sea are really miserable." Ji Mian also shook his head.
"Okay, this extraordinary person from the Western Kingdom is nothing to worry about. Master Lu, why did you call everyone here today?" Guo Changyong asked curiously.
The other three people also cheered up and stretched their necks to look at the Taoist in the seat.
As the person with the highest cultivation level in Daxia and the first person to come into contact with the extraordinary, Lu Qing's every move has a great influence.
But in the past year, Lu Qing rarely went down the mountain. He stayed at Changsheng Temple every day to diligently practice Taoism and teach Taoist priests.
To be able to make Lu Qingdu, who is pure and stoic, go down the mountain to summon everyone, something big must have happened!
Lu Qing's eyes swept over everyone's faces and asked:
"You are all people with outstanding immortal appearance, and your cultivation of Taoism is much faster than others. However, has your cultivation level not improved for a long time?"
"It's true. I broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining one month ago, but I haven't made any progress since then," Guo Changyong said.
"Me too."
"Same."
Lu Qing pointed to the sky and said: "Everyone is stuck at the fourth level of Qi Refining. It is not a problem of our qualifications, but actually due to the influence of this world."
"This world is a Dharma-ending world. Although the spiritual energy is recovering, the speed can no longer keep up with the speed at which we are getting stronger. Moreover, there is still suppression from heaven and earth!"
"The old Taoist made a little calculation. If this world wants to reach the level of supporting the fifth level of Qi refining, it will take 3 months, the sixth level of Qi refining will take 2 years, and the seventh level of Qi refining will take 12 years!"
Everyone was shocked. If this continues, their life span will not be long enough.
Ji Mian blurted out: "Master Lu, have you found a way?"
Guo Changyong's eyes lit up instantly. He knew very well that he must have discovered something about his old friend's character!
Lu Qing touched his beard and said with a smile: "The old Taoist has indeed found a way! There is a place where the suppression of heaven and earth is very weak. Let alone the fifth level of Qi refining, the ninth level of Qi refining should be no problem! But..."
"Nothing, Guanzhu Lu just said it's okay." Xie Shaohui said anxiously.
"Alas, it's complicated to say, you will all know if you come to my Changsheng Mountain together." Lu Qing sighed.
It was about the future, so everyone set off immediately and followed Lu Qing to the Changsheng Mountain.
I saw a bluestone staircase hanging out of thin air next to the originally empty back cliff. It extended diagonally downward and disappeared into the clouds and mist at a height of more than 30 meters.
Lu Qing held the Wind Control Technique in her hand and flew up the stairs. Guo Changyong and others looked at each other and cast spells to follow.
The moment they stepped onto the stairs, they noticed something different.
"The suppression of heaven and earth has weakened!" Ji Mian said in surprise.
He ran the revised version of the Changchun Sutra, greedily absorbing the spiritual energy around him, and finally understood how Lu Qing was able to break through the fifth level of Qi refining.
"Monarch Lu, where does the lower part lead to? How did this staircase appear?" Guo Changyong's attention was attracted by the clouds and mist below.
"Director Guo, do you still remember the Immortal Immortal Picture? The Patriarch finally appeared. Although the Immortal Picture was destroyed, the bluestone road was not destroyed."
"It reappeared recently and turned into this staircase. As for where it leads, I don't know. Maybe it's the fairy world!" Lu Qing's eyes showed longing.
Fairyland? Can you reach the fairyland by walking on this staircase?
Everyone showed longing, staring closely into the depths of the clouds and mist below.
The stairs were not long, and the five people reached the end quickly.
Looking at the translucent stairs in the mist, Lu Qing turned to everyone and said seriously: "Have you thought about it? Once you enter, you may not be able to turn back!"
Guo Changyong suddenly showed a hesitant look on his face. What is on the other side of the road? Even if it is really the fairy world, can he abandon everything now?
He also has elderly parents and a family, and the Special Investigation Bureau cannot do without him.
Guo Changyong ran through many thoughts in his mind, and finally sighed and turned around.
Lu Qing also sighed, seeking immortality really requires giving up too much.
"I have no worries. It's such a rare opportunity to go and see what the fairy world is like. I'll also help you explore the way."
Ji Mian smiled heartlessly and took a step forward pretending to be cool.
"Ji Mian, we promised that we will share the blessings and share the hardships. How can I leave all the pretense of pioneers to you." Zhuo Li on the side also quickly took a step forward.
"Uh, you don't want a family anymore? Without you, the Zhuo family wouldn't be as prosperous as it is now." Ji Mian said in surprise.
"There is still an eldest brother at home. Anyway, I used to be just a second young master with a weak sense of existence. At worst, I will go back to the past." Zhuo Li said nonchalantly.
Xie Shaohui silently took a step forward. He was alone and had only one life. It didn't matter whether he came back or not.
Seeing that everyone was ready, Lu Qing took the lead and stepped into the clouds.
Guo Changyong stood motionless on the spot, and did not dare to look back until there were no more footsteps behind him.
The clouds and fog have dispersed, and there is no trace of Lu Qing and the other four people.
It turns out that this is the feeling of being separated from the world.
Guo Changyong looked at the stairs slowly disappearing under his feet, feeling lost in his heart. He reluctantly picked up his energy and returned to Mingshan City.
After Lu Qing and others stepped into the clouds and mist, they found that nothing could be seen clearly around them, and there were only many strange sights that looked like glimpses of light.
The magic talismans were also unusable, and there were only a few sporadic white lotus-shaped flames floating on the roadside, shining a little light.
"I'll go, this atmosphere is really scary." Zhuo Li said as he looked around.
"Stop talking, let's follow Taoist Master Lu closely. This staircase is very unusual, each step covers a long distance." Ji Mian said.
While the two of them were talking, the distance between them and Lu Qing widened by a step.
Suddenly, Lu Qing's figure left afterimages in their eyes, moving away quickly, shrinking into a pinpoint, almost invisible in the darkness.
"Wocao! Are you going to be so exaggerated? Taoist priest, wait for us!" Zhuo Li shouted, and he and Ji Mian quickened their pace.
After climbing thousands of steps and walking in darkness for dozens of minutes, a few people finally saw the light, and their numb hearts began to beat violently.
"The exit is ahead. Be careful!" Lu Qing reminded, holding several talismans between his fingers, ready to activate at any time.
Everyone nodded and picked up the talismans, feeling a surge of courage in their hearts.
In the final analysis, the fairy world is just their wishful guess based on the legend of the Immortal Patriarch. No one knows what the exit of this staircase is.
With a feeling of apprehension, everyone took the last step.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The endless light and aura overwhelmed everyone.
…
In the Imperial City of the Western Kingdom, on the crown of the Melia Tree of Life, thirteen figures wrapped in black robes stood quietly.
In the sky, thousands of red streams of light flew from the direction of the ocean and converged into a pool in the center of the canopy of the Tree of Life.
Each transparent soul melted wailing, and the originally crystal clear pool gradually turned red, reflecting a dilapidated old castle.
"The efficiency of Daxia Kingdom is so high. They sank the ship just after entering the high seas."
"The sacrifice is completed and the energy is collected. Who comes first?"
"Carlos, you are the first to discover the secret of the blood pool. You go first."
"Haha, everyone should be not far away from going crazy now. The fruit of Melia and the extract of Melia, mixed together, are said to be vampires, but more like black tide monsters." Carlos smiled sinisterly.
.
Under the black robe, his face was extremely pale, covered with cracks like porcelain, and many red filaments were stretching out from the cracks, dancing slowly.
The other twelve people remained silent, with red silk threads dancing under their black robes.
"Let's go together. I once saw the sleeping real vampires in the old castle in the blood pool. By absorbing them, we should be able to transform our bodies and avoid going crazy." Carlos said.
"But how do we get back?" William stared at Carlos with red eyes.
"I don't know," Carlos said.
"Sigh. I already feel like I'm going crazy, so I decided to go in." Bernard sighed.
The others looked at him with heavy hearts. Just last week, Bernard went crazy overnight and sucked up all the family members in the villa.
"For eternal life, we have nothing to lose." Carlos said.
"For eternal life!"
Thirteen black shadows groaned in unison and jumped into the blood pool together.
In an instant, the red pool water surged, wrapping everyone in a red cloth, and disappeared after a few rotations.
The pool in the center of the canopy once again returned to its colorless and clear appearance.
