Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 648 "Color" and "Colorlessness"

  Formless heaven?

what is this?

Could it be an unknown world?

Or is it the name of a higher realm above the ninth realm?

Gu Xu fell to the ground, his brows furrowed, feeling extremely confused.

He felt that this word alone contained a huge amount of information. If he could fully understand the true meaning of it, perhaps his realm and cultivation would advance by leaps and bounds in an instant.

Although this word deeply tempted him and made him eager to explore its mystery in depth.

But he knew that now was definitely not the time to dwell on it.

He was worried that he would become obsessed with it, get so caught up in it that he would gradually forget everything in reality.

At this moment, the eunuchs not far away noticed the emperor falling on the shore of the lake.

This scene made them both shocked and uneasy.

They all knew that with the current emperor's cultivation and strength, even a True Lord might not be able to gain the upper hand from him.

  What kind of opponent could make him fall to the ground in such an embarrassing position, with a gloomy face and an expression as if he was facing a formidable enemy?

Could it be the silver dragon by the lake?

"Your Majesty! Are you well?"

Han Shunxi used his skills and ran towards Gu Xu, his face full of worry.

Although he understood that the enemy who could defeat His Majesty must be extremely powerful and could easily take his life.

But he still came without hesitation.

Because he knew in his heart that without His Majesty, he would be nothing today.

"I'm fine," Gu Xu pointed at the silver dragon in the lake after hearing Han Shunxi's voice, and responded calmly, "I just had a discussion with Daoist Jiang and suffered a small loss at her hands, but it's not serious."

While speaking, Gu Xu silently recited the "Heart Purification Mantra" twice in his heart and stood up calmly.

This spell, which is extremely basic in the Great Wilderness World, was initially used by him to fight against ghosts who were good at using charm and control spells. Later, he used it to resist the temptation of his wife's beauty.

And now, he uses it to suppress his thirst for the mysteries of the Tao.

Han Shunxi stopped, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Your Majesty is in good health, and I am relieved."

"You guys should leave first!" Gu Xu ordered, "I still need to discuss some important matters with Daoist Fellow Jiang."

"Yes!"

After all the eunuchs had left, Gu Xu once again cast his gaze towards the silver dragon swimming leisurely in the water and asked, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, when you were in the Lingxiao Realm, have you ever heard of the term 'Colorless Heaven'?"

"'Colorless Heaven'?" Jiang Zhaoyue tilted his head, quickly searched through thousands of years of memory, and then answered, "No."

She paused, as if remembering something, and added: "But I once heard my sister mention the concepts of 'color' and 'colorless' by chance."

"'Color'? 'Colorless'?" Gu Xu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What is that?"

"My sister said that 'color' here refers to 'material obstruction', where 'material' represents matter and 'obstruction' represents 'obstruction'," Jiang Zhaoyue explained, "and 'colorless' means being free from matter and obstruction, leaving only the mind."

"Being free from 'material hindrance'... could this be a state of spiritual practice?"

"I don't know either. My sister didn't explain it to me clearly."

"So where did she learn this?"

"She told me that it was in the 'Ancient Dragon Tomb'," Jiang Zhaoyue replied after thinking for a moment, "The first dragon of Lingxiao Realm is buried there, and we respectfully call it the 'Canglong God'.

“He has no father or mother, and was conceived by the great way of heaven and earth.

"When we go to the Ancient Dragon Tomb, we can sometimes hear his voice that remains in the world, and we may even be able to obtain some of his Taoist teachings."

"Have you ever been to the 'Ancient Dragon Tomb'?" Gu Xu asked.

"Yes," Jiang Zhaoyue replied, "The last time I shed my skin was in the 'Ancient Dragon Tomb'. It was under the protection of the 'Blue Dragon God' that I was able to successfully build the first level of the 'Nine Heavens' and obtain the authority of 'Reality'."

In the Lingxiao Realm, although there are many True Lords, those who possess authority are extremely rare.

It might not be too difficult to reach the eighth level, "Nine Heavens", but it is undoubtedly an extremely difficult task to construct each level of the "Nine Heavens" with an independent law of the avenue. For this reason, Jiang Zhaoyue, who has "real" authority at a young age, is regarded as a top genius by the dragon clan.

"Just now, I briefly looked at the trajectory of your fate in the long river of fate," Gu Xu looked at her and said seriously, "The root of your bad luck may be related to this 'Colorless Heaven'. But unfortunately, with my current ability, I can't fully explore the truth."

"'Colorless Heaven'..." Jiang Zhaoyue lowered his head and silently repeated these three words, "No matter what it is, as long as it brings me bad luck, it is a nuisance and it deserves to die..."

She cursed a lot in her telepathic communication.

When she curses at people, the words she uses are quite simple, such as "damn it", "hell", "hateful", etc., which are not offensive at all.

Compared with the uncles and aunts in the Luojing vegetable market, their cursing skills are simply the difference between a small cultivator in the first realm and a powerful True Lord.

But she enjoyed cursing and seemed to feel very relieved.

After cursing for a long time, she raised her head a little embarrassedly and looked at Gu Xu on the lakeside: "Thank you, Emperor!"

"You're welcome," Gu Xu smiled, "We are trading with each other, each taking what we need. Just come with me to Donghai Guixu tomorrow!"

…………

As Gu Xu obtained more and more "Hunyuan Qi" from Guixu in the East China Sea, he built several new spiritual energy conversion formations in the Zichen Palace, which were located in the long-idle Zhaoyang Palace, Ruijing Pavilion and other halls.

The upper limit of the number of members of the "Purple Mansion Army" was also expanded to 500 people.

More and more young practitioners with outstanding talents gathered in Luojing City - they bathed in the fresh breath of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and practiced the "Xia Emperor Sutra" compiled by Gu Xu himself. From then on, they no longer needed to go to great lengths to obtain elixirs for practice, nor did they have to worry about being eroded by evil spirits and going astray.

As for the task of recruiting new members for the "Purple Mansion Army", Gu Xu handed it over to Luo Chuan and did not participate too much.

He believed that after recruiting the first batch of "Purple Mansion Army", Luochuan should have been clear about his expectations and requirements and would be able to handle the matter properly.

By the beginning of May in the second year of Yuanshi, the talisman masters in Longmen Academy had made new breakthroughs in their research on the deduction formation.

Although these breakthroughs are still far from the results Gu Xu had hoped for.

But it is more than enough to support the normal use of a thousand "Qingdu Orders".

Now, under the guidance of Gu Xu's various wild imaginations, the realm of discussion in "Qingdu Ling" not only retains the one-on-one duel mode of the past, but also adds three-on-three and five-on-five group fight modes.

The one-on-one mode still continues the previous ring battle format. As long as you kill the opponent or force the opponent out of the ring, you will be judged as the winner.

The three-on-three and five-on-five modes are different.

They are conducted in random complex terrain.

At the left and right ends of the map, each team of monks has a base with a flag in each base.

As long as you break through the opponent's base and pull down the opponent's flag, you will be judged as the winner.

Regarding the newly launched mode, the designer Gu Xu said: "The reason why our Great Wilderness cultivators are now training diligently is to prepare for the war that will break out in the future. The invaders from the Lingxiao Realm will surely come in large numbers and it is impossible for them to fight us one-on-one. Therefore, the young cultivators of the Great Wilderness must learn to cooperate with each other in battle."

Once the team combat mode was implemented in the "Realm of Discussion of Dao", it quickly won wide popularity among the young monks of the "Purple Mansion Army".

Compared with one-on-one competitions, this model has more variables, focuses more on the use of strategies, and also promotes mutual exchanges between practitioners.

When they win, they put their arms around each other's shoulders, celebrate together, and praise each other to the sky.

If you lose, just blame it on your teammates.

Anyway, it’s definitely not that my skills are inferior to others.

In addition, in order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the monks, Gu Xu also made drastic improvements to the ranking method of the "Realm of Discussion of Tao".

In the past, the ranking method of "Realm of Taoism" was very simple, and rewards were distributed only based on the ranking from the first to the last.

This often results in the most intense competition among the top few monks, while the monks at the bottom of the list are relatively negative and lack fighting spirit, and can only watch the fight between those in front of them with a spectator's mentality.
