Preaching begins with Tai Chi

Chapter 203
Tribulation luck is different from the various martial arts and talismans that are commonly seen, but a more mysterious and mysterious way of luck.

In the Tianxia Realm, due to the limitation of the level of power, there is no possibility of catastrophe at all, and it can also be described that the Tianxia Realm is relatively primitive and simple.

But in the Divine Continent Realm, catastrophe is not just an illusion, but a real existence.

With the opening of the Shenzhou catastrophe, Li Mi is also constantly observing and exploring, looking for the origin and nature of the catastrophe.

Through 20 years of comprehension, Li Mi has also made a more in-depth study of catastrophe.

In a world, the number of monks has a limit, which is limited by the inspiration of heaven and earth, just like the upper limit of population depends on the area of ​​arable land and food production.

However, the number of monks in the entire Shenzhou Realm has begun to saturate after 8000 years of peace, and the entire Shenzhou Realm is gradually unable to satisfy so many monks to practice, and calamity begins to brew until the real catastrophe begins.

A catastrophe that swept across the entire Divine Continent would greatly reduce the number of monks, and return the inspiration to the nature of the heavens and the earth, and so on, forming a dynamic balance.

Therefore, in such a closed loop system, it is impossible to realize that everyone is like a dragon and all people practice, unless they can break free from the old restrictions.

For example, the industrialization of the previous life has greatly increased the number of human beings that can be carried around the world. In the Shenzhou Realm, it can either improve the development and replenishment cycle of spiritual machines, or open up a new world.

The occurrence of catastrophe and the opening of catastrophe are determined by the heavenly law of the entire Divine Continent. Even if it is the power of longevity, it can only choose whether to enter the game.

In normal times, a powerful monk with the status of longevity fruit, not to mention his combat ability, but his self-protection ability is extremely outstanding. Cultivation is not a game, and there is no chance to do it again. Therefore, every monk will master each skill. A means of protection and escape.

Longevity and power have a lifespan limit of tens of thousands of years, and immortality will only increase, which will naturally accelerate the arrival of catastrophe.

When the catastrophe really happened, the monks had two choices—to enter the game or to escape from the world.

By retiring from the world, you can avoid the catastrophe and be alone. If Changsheng Da Neng chooses to do this, there is a great possibility to survive the catastrophe smoothly.

But escaping from the world is not without cost, the cost is that in this catastrophe, and even in the following thousands of years, the protagonist of the world will not be with you.

Your sect may be cut down and the temple destroyed, your disciples may be slaughtered, and your orthodoxy may be extinct...

If you can bear all these costs, then you can indeed achieve "no disaster".

And if you choose to enter the game, you can be a chess player in the catastrophe, choose the layout, and once you succeed, you can become the protagonist of the world for thousands of years, just like the three emperors and the three immortal mountains; the loser will never recover , with his own life and Tao fruit, offering sacrifices to the way of heaven, returning the inspiration, and quelling the catastrophe.

Catastrophes can be big or small. 500 years ago, the ancestor celestial master Zhang Daoling set off a catastrophe, which almost wiped out the longevity power of the monsters in Shenzhou. The catastrophe of the entire Shenzhou is negligible, and a prosperous era of great rule is coming. .

However, the ancestor celestial master Zhang Daoling set up the supreme Xuanyuan Qingwei Luotian formation, which continued this prosperous age for more than 8000 years, so that the catastrophe of Shenzhou increased to an unprecedented level, which also means that this catastrophe of Shenzhou is tragic. The degree will be higher than last time.

From the titles of the three monarchs and five elders, it can be seen that as the victors of the last catastrophe, the Three Great Immortal Mountains, in order to keep the fruits of victory, must enter this catastrophe. On the contrary, the five elders are likely to choose to be at ease and avoid the catastrophe escape from the world.

However, there are two modes of robbery, one is to be a behind-the-scenes chess player, and not to make a move in person.

The catastrophe of contamination at this stage is negligible, and can be resolved with mysterious Taoism, such as the three monarchs, which is exactly the case.

The second way is to end in person, and will inevitably be contaminated with catastrophe. The deeper you enter the game, the deeper you get into the catastrophe. When the catastrophe is entangled, there is only one way out, and that is to become the winner of this catastrophe and have the last laugh.

For example, Lin Lingsu sent by Shenxiao and the demon stars from the sky in Liangshan had already been robbed at the beginning, and there was no escape.

However, Li Mi and Taijizong can choose whether to be robbed or not.

Using the Taiji diagram and the Shanhe Sheji diagram to bless the mountain protection array can definitely guarantee the safety of the Taiji sect and survive this catastrophe in Shenzhou smoothly.

But shrinking like a tortoise is not Li Mi's choice. Only by being robbed can the order of the Dingshenzhou be established and the transmission rate maximized.

After protecting the land of the five capitals with the map of mountains, rivers, and land, Li Mi has already been robbed, and his body is surrounded by robbing luck, which is mysterious and mysterious, and he cannot escape.

Li Mi was full of curiosity about this ray of catastrophe, and began to study it in depth, and now he has obtained some results.

Then the monks affected by the catastrophe may, to a certain extent, become a marionette.

Ordinary people's emotions and states are affected by endocrine, and they cannot control their emotions to a large extent, and it is easy to make wrong decisions. Through the practice of the Three Jewels of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, monks, generally speaking, Taoist monks can control their bodies well. Very precise, coupled with a long time of experience, will become rational and calm enough, and will rarely act recklessly and impulsively.

But under the influence of catastrophe, this calmness and rationality will disappear, and the whole person will become more and more emotional, with emotions floating on the surface, and calculations and interests will be left behind.

It's like a monk was pulled from the high throne and became a mortal again, but with greater power and more means.

Moreover, the Dao of Heaven will imperceptibly drive the monks affected by the catastrophe to fight each other, so as to reduce the number of monks and restore the balance of heaven and earth.

This is only the most basic traction of the way of heaven, and what is even more frightening is that it is driven by the power of the law of catastrophe as a pawn.

Li Mi can be sure that the three great immortal mountains, especially Zhengyi, must master the superior method of catastrophe and luck. The monks are used as pawns.

There is no need for real mind control, just a push at a critical time point to guide you to make a critical decision is enough.

Li Mi finally found out that if one does not practice the way of catastrophe, he really cannot be regarded as a qualified chess player.

Fortunately, it is not too late to understand.

This time, in order to hurry, Li Mi did not rely on his own derivation and compilation of Taoism, but directly used Ziqing Dao Seal to open it.

"Taishang Daoyin, mediating good fortune, I choose to create - "Infinite Tribulation Sutra"!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Mi realized that he had changed.

The angle of view is constant above the sky, like a satellite, overlooking the square land under the feet.

This piece of land is surrounded by oceans on all sides, with continents and islands floating on it, with a standard round sky and local pattern, on which primitive humans and various animals and plants live, and battles are staged all the time.

Li Mi can observe all the situations in the entire continent, and his perspective can even be zoomed in to see the expressions on everyone's faces, but he doesn't have his own body, and the only thing he can do is to influence this continent with catastrophe.

Because the shape of the continent looked like a sparrow from the sky, this continent was named Sparrow Continent by Li Mi. Millions of intelligent creatures lived on it, and the level of inspiration was almost the same as that of Tianxia.

Li Mi seems to have opened a game of civilization, the only way to win is to give birth to a monk of the Golden Core level in this world.

This is also a new and novel challenge for Li Mi.

In the first stage, intelligent life is still struggling to survive in nature, large areas of territory have not been effectively developed at all, and civilization is still growing.

Li Mi chose a primitive tribe and wanted to teach them Taoism, but found that he was thinking too much.

He can only use the catastrophe to influence the key decisions of these lives at critical moments, but he cannot change the world by himself.

Li Mi was not discouraged, but became more interested. While silently observing this tribe, he also investigated other alternative tribes. He hanged himself on a tree without needing to start.

In this game, he seems to be the creator, and he can freely choose to speed up time, up to ten thousand times.

Li Mi inspected the entire continent with his gaze, and finally selected 32 tribes with potential, and began to guide them towards civilization.

These primitive humans, as long as they have the patience to guide, endure repeated failures and ignorance, and keep throwing apples on "Newton"'s head, they can still invent and collect fruits at a very fast speed, drill wood to make fire, and invent stone tools. ...

The 32 tribes basically entered the Stone Age at the same time.

This is a world of ingenuity. Li Mi kept looking for seedlings of practice, and finally in the seventh year, he guided a young man in a primitive tribe to imitate the movements of white cranes and bears, and created a very crude and simple "Two Birds Play".

However, no matter how simple "Two Birds Play" is, it can be regarded as a practice method. As time goes by, the young "Xiu" grows up, tall and mighty, and his strength is several times that of others, so he is elected as the leader of the tribe. The tribe, renamed "Xiu".

On the other side of the Sparrow Continent, a girl named "Ling", under the guidance of Li Mi, invented words by observing the changes in the weather and clouds. These words contain magical power, which can cause flames, water, and even lightning .

Li Mi's soul seems to be divided into hundreds or even more, and at the same time, he manipulates all the candidate "seeds of civilization" on the entire Sparrow Continent to continuously lead their civilization forward.

But everyone's chances are different, and they evolved into completely different civilizations.

Some civilizations are good at planting. Under the leadership of a great sage "Ma", they planted sorghum and millet, and they were the first to enter the era of farming.

Some civilizations are good at hunting and breeding. They domesticated wolves into dogs, and began to domesticate bison and wild horses.

Some civilizations are good at making and have already started making primitive pottery.

Some civilizations are good at trade, using shells as currency, and wandering among other tribes to exchange...

As Li Mi continued to accelerate and accelerate again and again, the fire of civilization quickly spread across the entire Sparrow Continent, developing and growing stronger.

500 years later, among the 32 tribes initially selected by Li Mi, [-] tribes have been passed down, among which the worst-developed tribe is already a large tribe with a population of tens of thousands.

Of the fourteen tribes that were destroyed, most of them were annexed rather than extinct.

After another 300 years, three tribal alliances gradually formed on the Sparrow Continent.

The westernmost is the "Spirit" tribe. Their witches are in charge of the "sacred texts". They can use the power of the gods to perform wind, fire, thunder and lightning magic spells, govern hundreds of tribes with millions of people, and jointly worship the "gods".

The easternmost is the "Xiu" tribe. Their patriarch inherits the secret method of "Wu Qin Xi". They can observe five kinds of beasts and practice martial arts. The men in the tribe are tall and mighty, with extraordinary powers. 36, able to recruit and fight well, the most aggressive.

Occupying the most fertile land in the center of the mainland is the "Ma" tribe, which has more than [-] tribes and more than [-] million people.

With the integration of the three major tribal alliances completed, the war began.

In the beginning, facing the Ling tribe and the Xiu tribe, the Ma tribe retreated steadily. However, they have a large area, a large population, and a more advanced civilization. Everything in the patriarch's secret possession gradually spread among the human race.

Of course, here Li Mi also did a trivial work.

In another 200 years, the three tribal alliances formed three loose countries, with Ling, Xiu and Ma as the country names respectively. Hundreds of clans gradually evolved into common people, and King Ling, King Xiu and King Ma were crowned successively.

Immediately afterwards, King Ling and King Xiu formed an alliance, and at the same time they launched a war against the country of Ma. The reason was the old hatred of stealing the secret method 200 years ago.

After a long period of 1000 years, Sparrow Continent has finally developed from the most primitive tribal civilization to the stage of national civilization. The catastrophe of the whole world has also accumulated the first small climax and set off the first catastrophe.

Both Linguo and Xiuguo have higher combat power than Maguo, but Maguo has a large population. After stealing divine scriptures and practice methods, they also cultivated many monks.

For a while, the war was stalemate, and it was hard to tell the winner.

At a critical moment, Li Mi guided General Xiuguo to comprehend a brand-new kung fu technique that turns murderous aura into his own martial arts.

Then the strength of the Xiu Kingdom's three thousand troops soared, and the Ma Kingdom retreated steadily, and had to cede land for compensation. The first Three Kingdoms War ended.

Li Mi is very optimistic about the qualifications of this general who cultivates the country. It is a bit similar to Wu Shaozhong, who can easily turn his anger against his innate nature. If it goes smoothly, he may be able to achieve Jindan within a hundred years.

However, what made Li Mi dumbfounded was that Maguo chose to play tricks on Xiuguo, and sent one of the most beautiful women in the country, which caused a conflict between King Xiu and General Xiuguo, and finally ended with General Xiuguo being imprisoned and beheaded. .

During this process, Li Mi guided General Xiu Guo many times, hoping that he would wake up to the fact that no matter whether he rebelled or surrendered, he could avoid the disaster of killing himself.

Li Mi had to sigh with emotion, his supernatural powers are not as good as the number of days, and his catastrophe practice is not yet at home!

After this battle, Li Mi also gave up his eagerness for success, and began to continue to subtly guide civilization to move forward, not limited to any country or any one person.

The effect of the beauty trap was so lethal to the primitive and simple Three Kingdoms that King Xiu directly enshrined the beauties of the Ma Kingdom as his concubines, trying to curry favor in every possible way. In just ten years, he returned all the land obtained from the war to the Ma Kingdom.

The country of Ma has also formed a path dependence, and sent one of the most beautiful men in the country to the country of Ling to serve as a spy in the country of Ling.

This spy is also a top talent. He directly seduced the queen and princess of the Ling Kingdom at the same time, entered and left the forbidden area of ​​the Ling Kingdom at will, and obtained the highest secret of the divine language.

In the end, when the pregnant queen and princess of Lingguo forced him to marry at the same time, the spy finally couldn't stand it anymore, and hurried back to Maguo with the secrets of divine writing.

So the Lingma war started in full swing.

Ma Kingdom had just obtained the mysteries of the gods and scripts, and before it had time to form a combat power, it was defeated by the enraged queen and princess of the Ling Kingdom with mysterious lightning methods, and their morale plummeted.

Ma Guo had to cede land for compensation again, and offered the handsome man.

Then the most bloody thing happened. The queen and princess of Lingguo actually smiled at the beautiful man and returned triumphantly.

This era is in the process of transforming primitive society into a slave society. A war may be a trivial matter for the upper class nobles, but the civilians and slaves will bear the consequences.

If there is no inspiration, Ma Kingdom should have annexed Ling Kingdom and Xiu Kingdom long ago, but the reality is that they have stolen the law many times, and they are still beaten and defeated again and again.

After another 150 years, there was internal strife in Ma, and the Bei people who were good at trading killed the Ma people, proclaimed themselves king, and changed the name of the country to "Bei".

Linguo and Xiuguo were indifferent.

Twenty years later, Bei State took the initiative to launch a war against Xiu State, and used various treasures to form an alliance with Ling State in advance.

This battle lasted for a full 30 years, and the Xiu Kingdom was almost completely destroyed. Only a few warriors fled, most of them went to the Ling Kingdom under the leadership of the last prince, and a few scattered into the wilderness.

Until Xiu Nation fell, Ling Nation finally realized that "the lips are cold and the teeth are dead". The contemporary queen resolutely married Prince Xiu, integrated the army, and launched an expedition to Bei Nation, under the banner of restoring the Nation Xiu.

This battle lasted another 20 years. In the end, the frontline general of Lingguo was instigated by Beiguo, and the Lingxiu coalition forces that originally aimed at the capital of Beiguo were surrounded and destroyed.

In another 30 years, the Bei Kingdom was destroyed and the Soul Kingdom was destroyed, and the "world" was unified.

During this process, the civilization of the entire Sparrow Continent has gradually transitioned from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age, and the strength of the top warriors and priests has reached the stage of enlightenment. Even under the guidance of Li Mi, the road to open the gate of heaven and man has been completed.

However, Li Mi was too happy.

With the establishment of Bei Dynasty, the first unified dynasty, King Bei issued an order to the world that the practice of martial arts and divine script is forbidden, and only the royal family and Bei people can practice.

A few opponents had to flee to the wilderness, but this did not affect the overall situation.

It took Bei Chao 200 years to finally cultivate a celestial warrior, and then they were satisfied and began to enjoy it.

There are celestial warriors guarding the destiny of the country, and any rebels will be killed directly. The folk martial arts and divine scriptures have all been cut off. How can ordinary people be the opponents of celestial warriors?

King Bei rested easy and ruled the land together with the nobles, thinking that it could be passed down from generation to generation.

In fact, only the royal family can inherit martial arts and divine scriptures, and there are very few spiritual developments and inspirations in the entire continent. It is impossible to trigger catastrophe at all, and it is impossible to set off catastrophe.

That is to say, this kind of ruling mode is really possible for generations to come.

Li Mi was furious. You closed the country and fooled the people. You rulers never think about development, only want to be powerful, and there is no good thing!
