Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune starts from Tianshi Mansion.

Chapter 499 498. Demons and Demons in Troubled Times (Two Chapters in One)

Tang Xiaotang's fighting style has always been bold and open, emphasizing momentum and impact.

Relatively speaking, many of her fighting skills can cover a large area and still guarantee extremely strong destructive power.

And as she reached the immortal realm, she cultivated the immortal art - the Supreme Boat, and integrated all her energy into her mind and life skills. The speed and agility of the Supreme Boat were far superior to the earlier Pure Yang Boat and Taichu Boat.

Shenzhou can directly travel between heaven, earth and the universe without the support of the Pure Yang Sea or the Taichu Sea.

While taking into account powerful destructive power, impact force and defensive power, it almost ignores the boundaries of time and space and sails unimpeded.

It was as if a huge fairy or demon saint with extremely strong body and unbelievable speed was running rampant.

She combined in one body the boundless power of the demon saint Kunpeng when he transformed into the giant Kun and the extraordinary speed of the demon saint Kunpeng when he transformed into the great Peng.

For a top talent like Tang Xiaotang, as his practice becomes more and more profound and his realm continues to improve, the result will only be that he will have more and more strengths and become more and more comprehensive in all aspects, while his original advantages will continue to expand.

In fact, Lei Jun is in a similar situation in this regard.

From his early focus on physical life skills and beyond-visual-range and ultra-long-distance single-point burst lethality, to when he cultivated the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Five Thunders Orthodox Method, he began to take into account a wide range of lethality while ensuring extremely strong attack lethality.

And he didn't throw away his usual advantage.

After cultivating the true body of Thunder Emperor, not to mention the masters of the same realm, even many powerful people in the second realm of the fairyland are inferior to Lei Jun in terms of body movement.

In terms of attack power of immortal skills, physical life skills, and even insight, Lei Jun is always above the standard compared to his own realm.

Therefore, after Tang Xiaotang saw Lei Jun's true form as the Thunder Emperor, she rarely felt a bit of envy.

"As for ideas, I do have them." She said with a playful tone, "Although it is a physical life skill, it is just like your Thunder Emperor's true body, which is also outside and inside. It is not completely originated from the inside."

Lei Jun heard her say that and smiled, "That sounds really exciting."

Tang Xiaotang: "That's right, I'm looking forward to it myself."

She rubbed her hands together and said, "Come on, I won't talk to you anymore. I need to think about it carefully."

Lei Jun: "Junior Brother Hua Rong is preparing for the calamity between the sixth and seventh heavens. As a master, can you at least ask about it?"

Tang Xiaotang: "Don't worry, I've summoned Rongrong to Kongsang."

After saying that, she severed her connection with Lei Jun's Tiantongdiche Falu.

Lei Jun smiled and shifted his attention back to the people of the Ming Dynasty.

This time, Chu Kun went to the Ming Dynasty and continued to be responsible for helping him make various arrangements in that human world.

The premature convergence of the human world was prevented.

But that day will come.

Before this, Lei Jun and Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion intended to make more preparations.

..............................

While Lei Jun was observing the Ming world in Penglai, in Youyin, Emperor You Zheng Baiyu was also paying attention to that world and the Ming Dynasty.

In the vast darkness, Zheng Baiyu stood in front of an album.

The atlas is huge and presents the human landscape in detail.

The entire Ming Dynasty world seemed to be in front of Zheng Baiyu at this moment.

Youyin Wuxian Ren Caomu stood aside and reported: "Your Majesty, Yuan Jing and others have reported that someone from the Ming Dynasty has contacted us secretly."

Emperor You Zheng Baiyu nodded slightly: "Just keep in touch normally, don't miss it, but don't be too eager for now."

Ren Caomu: “Yes.”

After a brief pause, he continued, "Mingting Han Zhining is still alive, but he was seriously injured and is currently recuperating in the deep palace."

Emperor You Zheng Baiyu calmly closed the album in front of him and said, "Master Zhuang Zheng has a good successor, who is really perceptive."

Ren Caomu: "Your Majesty, you mean that the contemporary Heavenly Master Lei Chongyun intended to let Han Zhining go, and he noticed it..."

Zheng Baiyu: "Well, most likely he noticed our arrangements in the mountains and rivers of that human world, so he deliberately kept Han Zhining here to prevent us from taking advantage of him.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the Heavenly Master's Mansion at Mount Longhu stopped the human world from joining together early, and they were aware of it at that time."

Let the grass and trees stand quietly aside, waiting for Emperor You's order.

"How far has Yuan Jing progressed in preparing for the sacrificial rituals?" Zheng Baiyu asked.

Ren Caomu: "In order to stay hidden, the current speed is a bit slow. We are still a long way from being ready."

Zheng Baiyu: "It's right to be more careful, let Yuan Jing be more careful and keep it secret as the first priority.

She still has at least one or two years left, and she will have everything she needs, with your care and support.”

Ren Caomu: "Except for Wangshu Liubo, the rest of the treasures have been prepared and will be sent to the human world in batches on time, and then at the last moment, Wangshu Liubo will also be in place."

Zheng Baiyu: "Very good."

Let the plants and trees bow silently and retreat silently.

After the other party left, Emperor You Zheng Baiyu looked quietly into the distance.

In a dark and lightless world, a large number of sacrificial ceremonies have been prepared.

As soon as the time comes and the human world is fully prepared, the sacrificial ceremonies in both places will be launched together, and then the place that Zheng Baiyu has been planning for for a long time will be destabilized.

The Abyss of Time.

A place where trouble and opportunity coexist.

This opportunity is crucial and cannot be missed.

Therefore, Zheng Baiyu would rather let Cao Mu, Yuan Jing and others take stability as the top priority and pay more attention to acting in secrecy.

Previously, Feng Wensu and the various things happening in the Ming Dynasty recently all showed the sharp insight of Lei Jun and the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion.

not to mention……

Zheng Baiyu also did not forget Gao Tiansui in Biluo.

Although the other party has not walked around in the human world since his stunning appearance in the blue sky, this makes people more wary.

It is not difficult to guess that Gao Tiansui is currently recuperating from his injuries.

Zheng Baiyu suddenly laughed.

He had a premonition:
The Abyss of Time has been undergoing frequent changes recently due to the previous battle between Gao Tiansui and Zhang Wantong in Daju, and the turmoil in Biluo and Daju. It may undergo major changes soon, and Gao Tiansui, who is recuperating and in retreat, is likely to be able to catch up...

No, it shouldn’t be said that we can catch up.

To be precise, perhaps he was also waiting for that moment.

When Emperor You Zheng Baiyu was pondering, a book suddenly turned in the darkness in front of him.

In the darkness where it was difficult to see anything, Zheng Baiyu read the words on the book as usual.

External news:

Kun Pengyu finally came out of seclusion and successfully reached the second level of Demon Saint.

..............................

At this moment in Guixu, many great monsters, led by the Sea-covering Dragon King, are all bowing their heads to the cold and dark abyss.

As if in the abyss at the end of the world, an extremely ominous, twisted and contradictory feeling appeared at this moment.

It was as if from the end of the world, some kind of existence was born and emerged.

An incalculable black shadow swam out from it, as if a huge land mass had sunk to the bottom of the sea but kept moving.

There was no obvious change in the giant Kun's body shape compared to before the retreat.

However, the powerful force contained in it was even more shocking than before. Just its appearance made all the monsters in the surrounding Guixu tremble with fear in their hearts.

"Welcome the Holy Lord to come out of retreat!" The Sea-covering Dragon King said first: "Congratulations to the Holy Lord for completing his mission and dominating the world!"

The other big monsters also made the same action.

“No need to be polite.” As the Demon Saint Kunpeng spoke, demonic energy swept in all directions, causing turmoil in the world.

Many great demons hurried forward to congratulate him, but they did not dare to disturb the Demon Saint Kunpeng. After congratulating him, they all asked to leave.

Only a few top monsters such as the Sea-covering Dragon King, who were equivalent to the ninth-level masters of the human race, remained.

Led by the Sea-Covering Dragon King, the monsters gave a detailed introduction to the latest situation in the outside world.

The Demon Saint Kunpeng already had some understanding of some situations.

Some cases are more recent.

But when combined, the Kunpeng Demon Saint, whose cultivation strength has all reached a new level, heard it instead, which was thrilling:
Not only did Kongsang change its owner, but Venerable Shanzhihui didn't even survive and died in the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to the Tang Emperor, the Tang Dynasty's Taoist world now has at least two new Dongxuan Immortals from the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain.

The old part of the Heavenly Palace reappears.

In Youyin, Emperor You is secretly plotting.

All of this made the Demon Saint Kunpeng, who had previously concentrated on seclusion and received very little information from the outside world, feel as if he was in another world.

He hesitated for a moment before speaking again: "Master Youyin, what is your plan?"

Golden Khan Angqinfu and Venerable Shanzhi died one after another, and even Taoist Zhoutian and Venerable Puguang died in Penglai.

The Demon Saint Kunpeng did not feel any sense of sympathy for his own kind.

The Venerable Tongshan Zhihui and the Golden Khan Angqinfu had originally cooperated to seize Kongsang, so everyone got what they needed.

The embarrassment caused by the loss of Sumeru was a matter between Venerable Shanzhihui and Angqinfu, and the Demon Saint Kunpeng had no intention of getting involved.

He participated in the battle and made efforts, and later obtained the treasures he needed from Kongsang. He relied on relevant natural treasures to improve himself and successfully crossed the final threshold.

What happens after Kongsang will not affect the Demon Saint Kunpeng.

The deaths of Angqinfu and Venerable Kindness and Wisdom only made the Demon Saint Kunpeng feel a little regretful, as he had lost possible support from both parties.

The reason for his regret was not because of their deep friendship, but because he felt vaguely alone and powerless in the face of the powerful Tang Dynasty and the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion.

As for whether the two sides could cooperate, after hearing about the deaths of some great demons from the Ninth Heaven in the Ming Dynasty, the Demon Saint Kunpeng had to give up the idea.

The only possible helpers right now are the former members of the Heavenly Palace and the people in Youyin.

Referring to the historical actions of the old people in the Heavenly Palace during the great catastrophe at the end of the Han Dynasty, there was no distinction between humans and demons.

Gao Tiansui values ​​the same ideals and obedience to orders more than being a demon or a human, and coming from a Taoist background.

As for Emperor You, his actions were relatively mysterious and there were many hidden things in his actions, which made the Demon Saint Kunpeng inevitably more wary.

But the news from Youyin made the Kunpeng Demon Saint horrified:
"The Abyss of Time in the Great Principle... could it lead to another universe?"

Moreover, this world is dominated by evil spirits, which completely overwhelms the spiritual energy of heaven and earth?

There are powerful enemies everywhere and the situation is unpredictable.

Kunpeng Demon Saint, who had just cultivated to the second level of Demon Saint, did not feel proud at all. Instead, he felt that time was running out.

The surroundings urged him to keep going upward.

It would be best to achieve further improvement and breakthroughs in a short period of time.

But...how easy is that?
He had just reached the second level of Demon Saint.

If I want to move forward, I don’t say I have no idea where to go, but it will definitely be a long road.

But does the current situation of the world give him enough time to slowly study and figure it out?

Kunpeng Demon Saint felt heavy-hearted. He had to find another way to continue to make rapid progress, or find a way to resolve the crisis at hand.

Kongsang, for him, was no longer of any value.

Luo Yuan is unable to enter for the time being, and it is still unknown whether there will be any opportunity to help him. However, the Taoist community of the Tang Dynasty and the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain are quite powerful.

But if there really is such a vast world on the other side of the Abyss of Time, it would undoubtedly be another opportunity for the Demon Saint Kunpeng.

Indeed, Daju is currently under the control of the Tang Dynasty's monastic community.

But at least Daju is not as closed as Luo Yuan. At the same time, Biluo and Youyin are watching there together, so the chances are always greater than if it were just Luo Yuan.

"The news from Youyin is indeed true, but we are not sure whether it is true or not." replied the Sea-covering Dragon King.

The demonic aura of Kunpeng Demon Saint subsided a lot: "Well, even if it is true, how to get there is still a mystery at the moment."

Sea-covering Dragon King: "Then... Holy Lord, how should we respond to Youyin?"

Kunpeng Demon Saint: "You can tell them that I have come out of seclusion. As for the rest, we can wait and see."

The Sea-covering Dragon King and other great monsters immediately responded with a roar: "Yes!"

..............................

At the same time, the changing situation in the Ming Dynasty soon spread to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.

Whether it was the Later Han Dynasty or Southern Wu, Nanyue, Southern Han and other places, they were all shocked upon hearing the news.

Biluo and Lingshan also received the news.

In Lingshan, after listening to Peng Youshan's report of relevant information, Ruan Qiao waved his hand to signal the other party to retreat.

In the distance, among the mountains filled with spiritual energy, a large amount of precious light suddenly shot straight into the sky.

Seeing this, Ruan Qiao nodded slightly.

After a moment, the precious light faded.

Soon, a purple-robed Taoist priest came to Ruan Qiao and said, "I have completed my mission and have come out of seclusion. Thank you for your hard work these days, Saint Ruan."

Ruan Qiao said calmly: "It's okay."

Quan Yuanqi: "I wonder if the Lord of Heaven is here?"

Ruan Qiao: "The Lord is still in seclusion."

She sat still, but rays of starlight began to shroud her surroundings. "You're out of seclusion. I'll be in seclusion for a while to refine Gu. I'll leave Lingshan to you. Don't easily connect it to the human world."

Quan Yuanqi bowed his head like a Taoist: "I don't need to bother with this. Lord Ruan, please do as you please."

Ruan Qiao nodded. The starry sky was brilliant beside him. When the starlight was at its peak, it disappeared in a flash.

Quan Yuanqi looked normal. He turned and sat cross-legged at the place where Ruan Qiao had been before. He silently regulated his breathing and concentrated his mind. Rays of precious light seemed to appear and disappear, surrounding him and constantly rising and falling.

..............................

In Penglai, Lei Jun continued to observe the human world.

As time went by, he continued to kill all the powerful monsters in the Ming Dynasty, whether on land or at sea.

In the end, it was basically impossible to see the top demons active in the Ming Dynasty.

When the news spread, some great monsters even began to flee to the human world of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

But in the end, their fates are all the same.

After the great monsters in the human world are killed, new top monsters will gradually rise.

The other side of the surge of spiritual energy from heaven and earth is that the evil aura of demons becomes more intense, thus giving birth to more and more powerful demons.

Considering the current chaos within the Ming Dynasty's monastic community and the fact that the top human cultivators are too busy to eliminate the newly emerging demon race, Master Lei Tianshi will continue to take care of the Ming Dynasty's human world for a while longer.

Once the internal war in the Ming Dynasty's monastic community subsides and begins to gradually recover, the human cultivators can turn to suppress the demon race, which has suffered even greater casualties because of Master Lei Tianshi.

By carefully inspecting and preparing for a rainy day, if there are no other major changes, the rise of a new generation of powerful demons can be suppressed.

It is just like the current Tang Dynasty world and the Han Dynasty world which are gradually getting back on track.

It was in full swing during the Jin Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, and would be so later as well.

It is still difficult to say whether the later Ming Dynasty and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms could stabilize the situation before the human world merged, which is still difficult to say.

But for Lei Jun, he didn't force it.

If he found a big demon doing evil, Master Lei would easily get rid of it.

However, during this period of time, a happy event happened to Lei Jun's disciples.

His second disciple, Han Xiaofei, successfully survived the calamity between the sixth and seventh heavens, reached the cultivation level of the upper three heavens, and achieved the seventh heavenly realm of the Taoist talisman school.

After the ordination ceremony, Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion officially added another high-level magician.

After being ordained as a high-ranking official, Han Xiaofei, in addition to diligently practicing the art of life-saving calligraphy, will then begin to take on the various errands assigned by the mansion.

As she grew older, Han Xiaofei's temperament remained unchanged, but she became more stable than before. She obediently followed the instructions of the teachers in the mansion and learned various rituals.

It’s hard to say whether Elder Han has matured or...has become burdened by his idol status?
When she went to Penglai to meet her mentor Lei Jun and listen to his teachings, she asked Lei Jun privately:
"Master, I heard that Kongsang is planning to send more people. I wonder if I can go over there and listen to Master Zhang and Master Ke's advice?"

Lei Jun: "Do you want to listen to the advice of Senior Sister Zhang and Senior Brother Ke, or do you want to listen to the advice of Junior Brother Hua Rong?"

Han Xiaofei said quickly: "Although I want to see Junior Sister, she is now at the critical moment of preparing for the three-day climb. How dare I disturb her? I just want to go and see if there is anything I can help with."

Lei Jun: "You came out of retreat two months late. At that time, your uncle Tang was celebrating his 100th birthday in Kongsang. There were many people and things to do, and the scene was lively, but now it is no longer necessary."

"Yes, Master."

Han Xiaofei's eyes rolled around, and at this moment, she revealed her true purpose:
"Master, can I also take part in the mission that Senior Brother is currently doing..."

Before he could finish his words, Master Lei Tianshi flicked his finger on his forehead.

Elder Han immediately held his head, not daring to say anything more, and obediently returned to the ancestral home of Longhu Mountain in the Tang Dynasty.

Unfortunately, Cheng Rongrong is currently with Tang Xiaotang to Kongsang for meditation, and the eldest senior brother Zhuo Baojie is not on the mountain either, so Elder Han has to give up all his little ideas.

She had already known the life experience of her own master's grandmaster Yuan Mobai, but Yuan Mobai was too old. Although he had a gentle and friendly attitude, Han Xiaofei did not dare to act unruly and behave in a proper manner.

Secondly, the master never reveals his true form at any time...

Watching his second apprentice retreating listlessly like an eggplant hit by frost, Lei Jun couldn't help laughing and shook his head.

Time passes quietly.

The Song Dynasty pacified the Central Plains and continued to recuperate.

The Ming Dynasty became increasingly precarious. In the days that followed, not only the Taoist sect in Bashu, but also the White Lotus Sect in Qing and Xu regions caused increasingly severe unrest.

Uprisings also broke out in other places one after another.

What caught Lei Jun's attention was that many of the leaders of the uprisings in various places no longer had a background in the White Lotus Sect or Taoism.

Instead, a large number of martial arts practitioners raised the banner of rebellion.

Most of these martial arts practitioners are at a medium to low level, but they are numerous and scattered all over the place.

The shaking of the Ming court's foundation also affected Zhou Mingzhe's previous plan to use civil power to control military power and win a victory thousands of miles away.

Under such mutual influence, the Ming Dynasty became more turbulent and officially entered its end.

Lei Jun watched all this quietly, his face showing no sadness or joy.

As time passed, news came back from all directions.

Qin Caiwei reported first that Bai Mei had left the world of suffering after being so quiet that she wanted to move.

She did not go anywhere else, but went straight back to her own dojo in Kunlun Dachitian.

It seems that what she said before about refining treasures has now come to fruition.

Back in the Tang Dynasty, the current head of Chunyang Palace, Jiang Yu, had been in seclusion for meditation and came out today.

Just as Lei Jun expected, she successfully survived the calamity between the eighth and ninth heavens and achieved the high level of Mahayana in the Danding Sect.

After Yue Xiling, the Tang Dynasty’s Chunyang Palace had its second ninth-level heaven cultivator.

Jiang Yu has announced that after consolidating her own practice and perfecting her third innate magical power, and dealing with the affairs in the palace, she will rush to the human world of Daming to reunite with Yue Xiling, Mu Chunyang and others.

"The overall situation is improving and talents are emerging in large numbers. This is a good thing," said Lei Junyan.

In front of him, Qin Caiwei reported: "Master, I just received a message from Cang Huan that Senior Feng Ming has successfully survived the catastrophe and officially achieved immortality."

Lei Jun: "In this way, there will be another Feng Ming Saint Lord in the world. The Phoenix is ​​noble and indifferent. This is a cause for celebration."

He said to Han Xiaofei who had come with him, "Fei'er will represent me as your master and go to Cang Huan with Junior-Junior-Nephew Hua Wei to congratulate you. I will make arrangements for the corresponding gifts."

Next to Lei Jun stood his eldest disciple Zhuo Baojie.

However, Zhuo Baojie came back to Penglai this time because he was going to practice meditation, strive to reach the third level of the eighth heaven, and build his own divine palace.

Therefore, for the sake of experience, the mission of representing Heavenly Master Lei Jun to congratulate was assigned to the second disciple Han Xiaofei.

This made Han Xiaofei quite excited.

After seeing many rare and exotic animals in the universe, she was reluctant to leave.

But under Fenghuang Fengming's care, Han Xiaofei did not get into any trouble.

On the contrary, Fenghuang Fengming had a very high opinion of her.

After Phoenix Fengming arrived in the fairyland, he did not make any big moves and just continued to stay quietly in the world.

He is not as flamboyant and competitive as the real dragon Hua Ming.

When Jinwu Haoyang was injured, Fenghuang Fengming Anjing came to protect him, and the two sides got along very well.

Most of the news coming out of Canghuan was that after Saint Lord Fengming ascended to heaven, the situation in Canghuan had stabilized again, and Jinwu Haoyang could also concentrate on recuperating from his injuries.

“That’s always good news.”

Chu Kun saw Lei Jun again, his expression solemn: "Especially I feel that the abyss of that time in Daju is becoming more and more unstable."

Time flies. Two years have passed since Lei Jun and Tang Xiaotang went to Kongsang.

This summer, Lei Jun celebrated his 103rd birthday.

According to the reactions of Chu Kun and Zhang Wantong, the Abyss of Time began to become more and more distorted.

Until one day.

The Abyss of Time seemed to stand still for a moment.

Everything seemed to be frozen and paused.

The Abyss of Time was quiet, but the Great Principle was shaking violently as a whole, as if it was about to break and tear apart.

The Tang Emperor Zhang Wantong, who was in a state of great dignity, sat still.

But with her as the center, literary and artistic talent condensed, and the richness turned into a torrent of light, sweeping in all directions, bringing peace to the great order again.

But at the same time, the Abyss of Time above the Great Sky returned to normal.

But under the turbulence, the turbulence of time and space seemed to split apart as a whole.

More than one figure emerged from it and came to Daju.

Come to this vast world.
