Gou Cultivates Demon Immortals in the Endless Sea

What Hei Zu and Zhang Liang said was not profound, but just the word "heavenly punishment" was enough to make Zhang Liang feel extremely alert.

He knew that if such a vast Immortal Sea could be easily blocked, then what were the mere Six Paths Holy Land and the Demon Realm?
At best, Zhang Liang can only be considered as a regional overlord.

However, God knows how many powerful people of this level there are in the entire Xianhai.

At least, in the Eternal Continent, Zhang Liang still has to live cautiously. After all, there are real Mahayana masters and human immortals who have passed half the catastrophe.

During this hundred years, Zhang Liang also learned the true meaning of cultivation in the fusion period from the collections accumulated by the Star Palace.

The so-called fusion is the fusion of the law. From the refining void to the fusion, it is a process of integrating the Dao pattern and the refining void world. When it comes to the fusion, the refining void world has been determined, the Dao pattern has been integrated, and it has been realized. The heavenly way here has been combined, so what is missing is the law.

What is a law?

In theory, there should be all kinds of laws in the world.

In fact, most people can only touch upon some basic rules of the law, or can apply them reluctantly, but are far from the point of integrating the law.

The so-called integration of law is to infiltrate the power of a law into every inch of this world, to create law from heaven and earth, to cover heaven and earth with law, to form a perfect closure, and to form a realm of law.

Therefore, the ultimate result of the integration of the law is the domain.

It is difficult to say whether a domain is strong or weak. It all depends on who has a deep understanding of the law. Therefore, there is a simple record in the books stored in the Xinggong about the degree of integration of the law, that is, the strength of the domain.

It is said that there are three levels of fields.

First, understand the law and become a domain, integrating heaven and earth.

This means that the refining world you are in can initially form a closed loop, covering the laws, and can be controlled with a single thought. This realm is actually not weak, but because the comprehension of the laws is not deep enough, if you encounter a strong person of the same realm, they can completely break your domain if they have a deep comprehension. Therefore, in a battle of the same realm, the advantage is not great.

Zhang Liang is currently at this stage. Since he mastered the law of gravity very early and had the deepest understanding of it, after the fusion, he directly completed the Dao pattern, the fusion of heaven and earth, and the laws were instantly covered, forming a temporary closed area.

Therefore, in terms of realm, Zhang Liang can be regarded as at the peak of the early stage of fusion at this moment.

The second level is that the laws of heaven and earth are created, and the laws cover heaven and earth.

This means that in this refining world, external forces such as the power of heaven are completely stripped away to form one's own world. In this world, the laws are constantly growing and will not be extinguished. And the laws themselves can also penetrate all living things in this world and nourish nature.

This realm sounds easy, but it is extremely difficult to achieve in practice, because this realm requires precise control over the laws, similar to the grasp of strength, temperature, and other measures required when forging iron.

This realm places more emphasis on the strength of the spirit and soul. The stronger the spirit and soul, the easier it is to achieve.

Zhang Liang has a map of immortality. If he continues to practice, it will not be difficult to reach this state.

Of course, it is still extremely difficult for others. After all, not everyone has such a heaven-defying skill as the Asking the Immortal Map.

As for the third level, that is the most difficult one in the fusion period.

The third level is the most mysterious, it is the prototype of the Great Dao born from the limit of the law. In other words, what kind of Great Dao gave birth to this law. What you need to understand is no longer the law, but the kind of Great Dao. As long as you touch the threshold of the Great Dao, you will reach the peak of the fusion. If you enter this path, you will be a Mahayana.

Zhang Liang was confident that he would reach the middle stage of fusion within a hundred years, and he also knew that the law of gravity came from the great way of force, but knowing is one thing, and knowing and understanding are two completely different things.

Unfortunately, the classics stored in the Star Palace are from the Six Paths Holy Land and are relatively shallow.

If I want to understand something in depth, the Eternal Continent is a good place to go. If I am lucky and gain some insights about the Great Dao, I may be able to easily reach the late stage of fusion.

Of course, all of this requires solving another problem.

That is, his soul has been marked by someone. The mysterious woman in the Xinggong forbidden land mentioned a great world in her words. Zhang Liang suspected that it was the Eternal Continent or a place similar to the Eternal Continent.

Since there is also a Star Palace in the Eternal Continent, if I go to the Eternal Continent, that guy would probably be able to sense it.

Therefore, he had to ask Hei Zu for help.

So Zhang Liang told Hei Zu about Xing Gong and the mysterious woman.

"Oh?"

But Hei Zu said in surprise: "I want to know, what was your mentality when you didn't read the wordless heavenly book?"

Zhang Liang had already responded, and he just heard him say: "How could I not know the character of those people in the Xing Palace? Since I know that the key to their character must be related to that woman, how dare I trust her?"

Hei Zu nodded slightly and said, "She is quite smart. I have never heard of that Xinggong, but I thought it was some rising star. Now listening to you, it seems like a big scam. According to what you said, the people in Xinggong have similar minds and styles of doing things. I am afraid that an ancient immortal who has practiced the way of parasitism is causing trouble. However, there can be no immortals in the Immortal Sea now. So, there are only three possibilities."

"what's the situation?"

Zhang Liang thought to himself that Hei Zu was indeed extraordinary. He had guessed that the other party used parasitism from just the few words he described.

It can be seen that in Hei Zu's era, this kind of evil martial arts should not be new.

All I heard was Hei Zu saying, "Or maybe this person is the remnant of an ancient immortal who wants to return to the immortal path. However, the immortal sea and immortal path are cut off. Even if he has mastered the way of parasitism, he cannot become a true immortal, otherwise he would have been killed by the heavens. If he is this kind of person, then this immortal palace is not worth worrying about. Because in the final analysis, he is not even an immortal."

"What about the other one?"

Hei Zu continued, "The other one is more terrifying. This person may have mastered a mysterious way to immortality. Those Star Palace disciples are not trained for conquering the Immortal Sea, but really want to help them ascend to immortality as a training for strengthening the self. If this is the case, then this person cannot be an enemy for the time being, because his strength must exceed that of the True Immortal Realm."

"Mastered a mysterious path to immortality? Used the disciples of the Star Palace as the cauldron? Surpassed the realm of true immortality?"

Zhang Liang was shocked. If this was the case, then the Lord of the Star Palace would be terrifying.

Seeing Zhang Liang's expression, Hei Zu said with some disdain, "You still can't change your nature. Do you think such a small thing would make you afraid? It's just a little mark of Dao. Just close your eyes."

Zhang Liang was delighted when he heard this and closed his eyes immediately. The next moment, he felt something tapping lightly on his forehead. Then, he felt an extremely gentle force as if cleansing his soul. He felt his sea of ​​consciousness was unusually comfortable.

"All right."

"Hmm? It only took a moment to heal?"

Zhang Liang opened his eyes in astonishment, only to see Hei Zu speaking with some disdain: "It is just a trick used by the immortals. It is meaningless to the immortals, but to the practitioners in this sea of ​​immortals, it is an almost indelible mark. Of course, it is not absolute. When you have achieved success, it will not be difficult to erase it."

Zhang Liang bowed and said, "In any case, I thank Hei Zu."

...After Zhang Liang came back from Heizu, he actually had even more doubts in his mind.

For example, who exactly is Hei Zu? And how powerful is he?

Judging from his tone, he seemed to not care about even the means of an immortal. He was almost certain that Hei Zu had no need to lie or deceive people, so Hei Zu's strength was definitely above the true immortal realm and he was a real strong man.

But, is this powerful person in the Immortal Sea or somewhere else?
If it was in the Immortal Sea, according to Hei Zu's meaning, a true immortal would be killed by the Heavenly Dao. So, can it be understood that Hei Zu's real body is not in the Immortal Sea?
Of course, Zhang Liang didn’t care about this. What he cared more about was that Heizu was so powerful, but he fell into this half-dead state. Was it man-made or was it his own doing?

If it was man-made, then wouldn't the Black Fish Tribe necessarily have an extremely powerful enemy?

But if he pretended to be dead on purpose, doesn't it mean that something extremely terrifying has happened? Even an existence like Hei Zu has to pretend to be dead to escape?

No matter what the situation was, it was obviously very tricky. For a moment, Zhang Liang's heart was filled with a sense of crisis.

Fortunately, the mark left by the mysterious woman on him has been removed, so he doesn't have to worry about being found when he goes to the Eternal Continent.

Now, he has learned some secrets about the heavenly punishment, and he knows that this matter concerns the heart of Taoism, so he dare not ask any more questions. Now is the time for him to go to the Monster King City.

……

a few days later.

The demon king’s city.

It's relatively peaceful here, as always.

The Siren society and the human society are not much different except for their living habits. Their daily life usually consists of hunting, treasure hunting, and exploring secret places.

In the royal city, the hierarchy is stricter than that of the human race.

In this royal palace, the Demon King Tianze was drinking fine wine while the beauty beside him was massaging his back and shoulders.

Suddenly, Tianze's half-open eyes suddenly opened.

Tianze raised his hand, and everyone around him left. Then he said, "You are late. You made me wait for a hundred years in vain."

But behind the curtain, there was a figure leaning on a jade pillar. Who else could it be but Zhang Liang?

Zhang Liang asked, "Did you know I would come?"

"Destroying the Star Palace, this alone will make you famous throughout the North Sea. The entire North Sea will know the name of Black Wind, how could I not know that? I thought you would come to me soon, but I didn't expect you to drag it out until now. Don't you have the confidence to defeat me?"

Zhang Liang smiled casually: "I didn't come because I was busy. Besides, if I didn't come, you didn't come to see me, right?"

"Why should I look for you?"

Zhang Liang: "Aren't you afraid that my Black Fish Tribe will become bigger and stronger and compete with the Demon Tribe's royal city?"

"Cut~"

Shuize waved his hand lazily and said, "I waited for you, but mainly out of curiosity. For example, how did you grow so fast? The last time we met, you had just reached 70,000 miles of Void Refining, but the next moment, you merged. It seems that you really got some rare treasure, otherwise how could you grow so fast."

"What, you want to rob?"

"That's not the case. Everyone has their own opportunities. Naturally, I also had my share of opportunities to become a demon king. So, how did you find time to come here today?"

"Didn't you want me to come?"

Zhang Liang asked back.

The demon clan’s royal capital and the demon clan’s ancient land are far apart from each other, yet a war broke out. Although it was just a small-scale test, who’s crazy enough to send people across 70 million miles to fight?
The only one who can give such an order is the Demon King.

Of course, he did this not to test the ancient land, but more like to make an appointment with Zhang Liang.

"Tsk! That's clever."

Zhang Liang said calmly, "To be honest, I am indeed curious about one thing. Why is there no life in this demon realm? It seems that the entire demon race has nothing else to do except fighting with humans."

Tianze sneered: "Then what do you think the demon race should do?"

Zhang Liang: "Don't you want to pursue the great way?"

Tianze pointed outside the house and said, "Go ask how many monsters are passionate about pursuing the Great Dao? Monsters are beasts and love to eat by nature. Eating is their greatest hobby. When you reach the realm of transformation and refining the void, it is so difficult to practice. Among ordinary sea monsters, it is so difficult to find a seedling with the potential to be an emperor. Even if such a seedling is found, it is so difficult to make it grow up."

Zhang Liang: "So? Just let them roam free?"

Tianze smiled and said, “That’s about right!”

Zhang Liang asked again, "I thought you would be afraid of me, but I am erratic and cannot protect the ancestral land forever. Logically, as a demon king, you shouldn't just stand there and watch. You can't be scared by me. And judging from the tacit understanding between the royal city and the ancestral land over the past hundred years, you don't seem to have any plans to target the development of my Black Fish Tribe. Why?"

Zhang Liang was indeed a little curious. If Tianze wanted to take action, there would be too many opportunities.

He had originally argued with Tianze with the attitude of burning down the demon tribe's ancestral land. He thought that no matter how bad the royal city was, it would at least go and cause some destruction. But who knew that nothing happened. It was as if the royal city simply gave up the ancestral land and allowed the Black Fish Tribe to develop freely.

Tianze looked at Zhang Liang and said, "Do you know how long I have been the demon king?"

Zhang Liang frowned. He really didn't know this. The history of the Demon Clan's Royal City was quite long. According to the records of the known books of the Demon Clan, the Demon Clan's Royal City existed not long after the Heavenly Punishment, and was ruled by the Warring Demon Emperor. After that, the rotation of the Demon Kings of successive generations was mostly a secret of the Demon Clan, and was only recorded in the Demon Clan's Royal City. After all, most sea sirens were a group that didn't care about history.

Before Zhang Liang could answer, Tianze said, "Twenty-seven thousand three hundred thirteen years and six months."

Zhang Liang: "..."

Tianze lazily summoned a pot of fine wine and said, "When I was the Monster King, the Lord of the Star Palace was not yet the Lord of the Star Palace. At that time, the beasts of the Sea of ​​Fierce Beasts were still rampant. At first, this king also worked hard to govern the country, and carefully selected excellent monsters from the ancestral land. Unfortunately, the bloodline was too poor, it was really too poor. As a result, today, I can only barely cultivate a fusion stage."

"Crack~"

Tianze just snapped his fingers, and the next moment, a white-haired old man holding two serrated knives appeared in Tianze's palace.

The man glanced at Zhang Liang, then bowed respectfully to Tianze: "Teacher." (End of this chapter)
