Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 606: Going to poverty and falling to hell

At the end of the East China Sea, at the bottom of "Guixu".

The gray-white mist flows endlessly.

Sometimes it's sparse like a yarn, sometimes it's dense like a tide, sometimes it's turbulent, sometimes it's calm and soothing. In this chaos, everything becomes blurry, as if we have returned to the beginning of time when the heaven and earth were not opened and yin and yang were not separated.

Gu Xu looked at the thick fog in front of him and said to Zhao Changying beside him: "Actually, the flow of this 'Hunyuan Qi' is regular."

"Is there a pattern?" Zhao Changying frowned slightly, feeling quite surprised.

Just now, in the process of Gu Xu using the power of "Qiankun" to collect "Hunyuan Qi", his spiritual consciousness also quietly unfolded, shuttling through the gray-white mist like a thin thread, trying to capture and understand the mystery contained in it. Tao rules.

After all, stepping into a mysterious place like "Guixu" is almost a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Dahuang cultivators. Most of them will never be able to set foot here in their lifetime.

Zhao Changying knew very well that it would be a great regret if he did not seize this rare opportunity to explore and understand as many of the mysteries of the nature of the world as possible at the end of the world.

However, "Hunyuan Qi" itself is a symbol of chaos.

When Zhao Changying's consciousness touched the mist, he felt countless broken and messy images intertwined together, rushing toward him like a rising tide. He felt like a lonely rock on the seashore, and he was instantly submerged by the chaotic waves.

He seemed to witness the rapid alternation between night and day, golden thunder piercing the dim sky, majestic mountain peaks collapsing, and airtight gray iron nets spreading from under his feet to the distant horizon... But these pictures seemed extremely abstract. Distorted and unreal, he couldn't help but wonder if it was just his imagination.

When he broke free from the illusion, he found that a large amount of his true energy and spiritual power had been consumed, as if he had just experienced a fierce battle, and an indescribable feeling of fatigue came to his heart.

Because of this, when Gu Xu said the word "law" calmly and calmly, Zhao Changying was deeply impressed and couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart: He is indeed the reincarnation of Emperor Ziwei.

"If we go deeper into the 'Hunyuan Qi', we may reach other time nodes in the wilderness world, or we may reach other worlds across distant spaces. All of this seems to be full of uncertainty," Gu Xu explained, “It’s like sailing on the vast sea. When the haze in the sky obscures the stars, and there is no compass in our hands to guide us, we can only be at the mercy of the wind and waves and be taken to an unknown destination.

“But if we have a compass in hand, we can try to steer the course and go where we want to go.”

Hearing Gu Xu's words, Zhao Changying's brows furrowed even more. As a powerful true king who achieved Tao through martial arts, he was good at using force to defeat skill. However, his understanding of the secrets of Tao beyond martial arts was not deep enough.

"Your Majesty, the 'compass' you are talking about is——"

"——This is it."

Gu Xu took out the star disk as he spoke. Under the cover of the thick fog, the complex patterns on the star disk seemed to be gradually lit up, emitting a soft silver-white halo, flowing like a trickling stream at his fingertips.

Most of Gu Xu's understanding of "Hunyuan Qi" comes from the memory of Emperor Ziwei, and a small part comes from the unique understanding of the laws of time and space given to him by the authority of "Time" and "Qiankun".

Since being promoted to a strong saint, his control over the laws of time and space has become increasingly sophisticated, making the "Hunyuan Qi" gradually lose its mysterious veil in his eyes.

He had already realized that during the last time he traveled through time and space through "Return to Ruins", Emperor Ziwei had been secretly using the "Astrolabe" to steer him, so that he could accurately send him to several certain time nodes, so that he could " By chance, he met Zhao Yan and the young Chi Yangzi from his previous life.

"Recently, Shen Qiu has been sorting out the resource situation in various places in the Great Wilderness for me," Gu Xu paused and continued, "According to his report, I found that many spiritual mineral resources in the Great Wilderness are gradually drying up, and many spiritual grass and spiritual resources are gradually exhausted. strain, perhaps due to environmental changes, is also facing an endangered situation.

“I am worried that in the near future, the cultivation resources of the Great Wilderness World will not be able to meet the growing cultivation needs of the monks.

"In the memory of my previous life, hundreds of years ago, the upper world also faced the same dilemma. Their solution was to travel through the turbulent flow of 'Hunyuan Qi' and explore other worlds in search of richer knowledge. resource.

"Perhaps we can also learn from this method."

"Other worlds?" Zhao Changying looked shocked and couldn't help but repeat in a low voice.

Since the Great Wilderness world has been imprisoned by Taishang Haotian for a long time and has been closed and isolated from the outside world, and has been brainwashed by Taishang Haotian for thousands of years, in the minds of most Great Wilderness people, the Great Wilderness is the only existence in the entire universe. The world - at most plus an illusory "fairyland". Because of this, when Zhao Changying heard that the Great Wilderness monks could actually set foot in other worlds and obtain resources from these new worlds, he felt incredible.

"That's right." Gu Xu replied.

He came to "Guixu" today. In addition to collecting "Hunyuan Qi", he actually had another purpose.

He planned to verify the feasibility of astrolabe positioning in space turbulence.

His current strength is not enough to travel through space turbulence and reach other worlds without risk.

However, this does not prevent him from making early preparations for the future development of Dahuang.

After a brief explanation to Zhao Changying, Gu Xu took the astrolabe and stepped deeper into the gray and white fog.

Zhao Changying watched his back gradually disappear, hesitated for a moment, and followed him.

…………

In the deep chaos, a faint silvery white light bloomed quietly, like a lone lamp in the dark night.

The astrolabe floats quietly in the sky.

The complex lines carved on its surface shine with silvery white light, as if countless stars are moving along a predetermined orbit, and they also seem to reveal the profound rhythm of time and space.

Gu Xu stood aside, his eyes fixed on the changes in light and shadow on the surface of the astrolabe, and he was silently making complicated calculations in his mind.

Zhao Changying stood beside him, always alert to any changes around him.

Suddenly, he vaguely caught a glimpse of several dark, huge, flickering shadows, floating leisurely from the depths of chaos. These shadows have no entity, lying across the void, blending into the surrounding environment, like slowly moving mountains.

When Zhao Changying stared at these shadows, a strong sense of dizziness and oppression suddenly came over him, as if these shadow hills might collapse at any time, swallowing him ruthlessly into endless darkness.

"Your Majesty, please look, what's over there is——"

"——Don't worry, that's the 'Void Whale', a kind of creature that lives in the turbulence of space. They are condensed from shadows and usually act according to instinct. As long as we don't take the initiative to provoke, they will not pose any threat to us. Threat..." Gu Xu explained calmly while searching for the memory of Emperor Ziwei's previous exploration of the void.

However, before he finished speaking, Gu Xu's eyes suddenly narrowed, his eyes showing alertness.

Then, he grabbed Zhao Changying's sleeve and pulled him back quickly.

"Quick! We must leave here immediately!"

"Your Majesty, this...what is going on?" Zhao Changying asked doubtfully while following him to escape.

He didn't quite understand why Gu Xu was calmly explaining that the "Void Whale" was not a threat one moment, but was so eager to pull him away the next moment.

Gu Xu did not answer immediately.

The two quickly left the chaotic fog, traveled through space, and returned to the waterfall at the end of the East China Sea.

At this time, Gu Xu took a deep breath and explained to Zhao Changying: "I just noticed that there is a line of cause and effect on the void whale headed by it. Although I can't see where the other end of it is pointing, I suspect it is very It may be connected to Taishang Haotian.”
