Traveling through thousands of realms at the same time, I need to add some dark blue

Chapter 166 Dominate the world
The person who took away Zhang Xiuer was of course Han Li, and the flying sword talisman was also taken away.

Although Han Li lived alone and had no one to send him messages, the Divine Hand Valley was not far from Sunset Peak.

When he saw the fire, of course he knew something was wrong. He came earlier than Li Feiyu, but he just habitually hid behind everyone and observed secretly for a while.

When I saw the flying sword talisman of Master Jin Guang, I felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the talisman, so I looked at it for a while longer.

But after repeated observations, he still found that although the strength of the flying sword talisman was also very dangerous for him, the danger was greatly reduced as a human being. When the Sky Eye Technique saw him at the third level of Qi training, he probably wasn't pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, but was really the only one. Three levels of Qi training.

The fact that he had just used the Exorcism to directly seize the talisman also illustrates this problem. Han Li did not learn the "Small Five Elements Transformation Divine Light" that Gu Meng understood from the five-color divine light, and he used ordinary spells.

Being able to directly seize the treasure by using the art of dispelling objects only shows that the magic power difference between him and Master Jin Guang is at least several times, and Master Jin Guang himself is too weak.

Ha, even a third-level Qi practitioner dared to call him "Master" and call himself "I", which made Han Li very happy.

"It's the Wind God's Leg! It's indeed the light skill passed down by Master Gu. You can't see the figure at all!"

"The flying sword can be taken away. Is that dwarf really the swordsman?"

"Is this handsome guy Senior Brother Han Lihan? This is my first time seeing him."

"I often go to the Valley of Divine Hands, but I have never seen Senior Brother Han take action."

"It turns out that Senior Brother Han's martial arts is so high."

……

Han Li showed a handsome smile. At least his appearance looked a bit like that of Junior Sister Feng:

"To be honest, Han may be like this by nature and has always acted cautiously, but today I was able to be fooled by you for a moment. It's a shame. I don't know one thing. You only have the third level of Qi training. Why do you dare to call me 'I' ?”

Master Jin Guang across from him watched helplessly as Han Li took his treasure into his arms. He couldn't help but burst into anger, but he didn't have the courage to show off.

After all, Han Li's actions just now, including collecting the treasure, erasing his spiritual power on the talisman, and directly seeing through his cultivation, clearly showed that the other party was not a mortal, and that his magic power was at least several times deeper than his own, and his realm was also higher.

Master Jinguang looked down upon mortals, but when facing immortal cultivators, he knew very well what kind of disciple he was.

Before he could reply, Han Li's figure turned into a strong wind and approached Master Jin Guang——

That was the combined effect of the Wind Control Technique and the Wind God Legs. Even after he had cultivated into immortality, Han Li could still feel the mystery of Gu Meng's martial arts. He felt that Master Gu might have opened up a heaven-reaching martial arts path.

Even if you have fully trained the Wind God Leg, you can continue to use it. Combined with body training, the higher the cultivation level, the greater the power. In the later stage, it can also affect the celestial phenomena and set off storms. It is almost not martial arts but magical power. At least for Han Li now, the power is invisible. upper limit.

Seeing Han Li being so elusive, Master Jin Guang became even more frightened. He couldn't help but take a few steps back and whispered timidly:
"What are you going to do? I didn't invade the minerals here, nor did I pick any magical herbs or elixirs. I just collected some gold from ordinary people. I didn't violate the interests of your local family. You have no reason to kill me."

When Han Li heard this, he smiled and shook his head:

"Your Majesty, the ignorant are fearless. You are not at all concerned about what Li Feiyu said just now... You have no idea what you are facing. Just take care of yourself. You don't have much time."

Master Jin Guang had a look of fear on his face, so had he violated some taboo?
Could it be that the Qixuan Sect is not a sect of Jianghu, nor is it a peripheral force of the Immortal Cultivation Family as he just guessed, but is it the secret of the Immortal Cultivation sect? Isn't that a dead end?
He rolled his little eyes and hurriedly moved out of the backstage he had thought of:
"I'm a disciple of the Ye family in Qin Yeling. I'm just passing by here. Because I have an old relationship with the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang, I couldn't stand the other party's pleading, so I helped. I definitely didn't mean to pry into your sect's secrets! Please let me go, I will be rewarded!"

While moving backstage, he immediately started begging for mercy, which made Qixuanmen happy, but the expressions of the Wild Wolf Gang were not very good, and now it was all over.

Han Li didn't know what the Ye family was in Qinyeling, but seeing Master Jin Guang's expression, it might be a big family, right?

But he didn't think Master Gu would be afraid of this. Master Gu didn't seem to have any fear at all.

Han Li always had a feeling that even if one day a true immortal came to earth, Master Gu would still dare to wield his sword, otherwise he would not be able to write a poem like "There are three million sword immortals in the sky, and they have to lower their eyebrows when they see me."

But just in case, I didn't kill him yet.

The current situation is still different from the original plot. Han Li does not intend to leave Gu Meng and leave the God's Hand Valley now, and is relatively more cautious.

He now has new techniques and elixirs. The gadgets that Master Gu occasionally practices are enough for his own use. There is no shortage of magic weapons.

The only thing missing from the Dharma couple's wealth is land. For someone like him who is in the stage of refining his four spiritual roots, it doesn't mean much if there are new elixirs to avoid drug resistance, so he can still survive.

After all, Han Li is an accomplished person who can achieve a hundred chapters in an ordinary martial arts sect. His real idea is to stay in one place until the later stages of his development.

Although Han Li told Han Paopao, it was because he was really unlucky. He would cause chaos wherever he ran. If he didn't download the dungeon together, he would often kill his teammates, provoke powerful people, and be hunted down. Who would be a serious cultivator willing to run away? !
If he doesn't plan to change his nest now, he doesn't plan to kill people and run away, just to cause trouble.

After making this judgment in a short period of time, Han Li's murderous intention subsided and he retreated behind Li Feiyu to let him deal with the problem.

Li Feiyu was also an old man in the world, and he had similar ideas, so he targeted Jia Tianlong and others who were obviously not going to be in much trouble.

Gang leader Jia Da had no other good solution at this time, so he used all his inner strength to shout out almost like a lion's roar:

"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow quickly!"

These were also his last words in this life.

This roar woke up some of his men. Some of them were so weirded out by the recent assault training that they actually fired arrows at Li Feiyu.

However, the palm that Li Feiyu used to break the golden bell was too consumed, so Han Li could only stay by his side and release a turtle shell-shaped magic weapon for protection.

Taking this opportunity, several leaders of the Wild Wolf Gang fled directly.

The situation has completely overturned today. Jingzhou, no, Yue State, don’t think about staying any longer. Let’s move to other countries.

But unfortunately, they didn't have the chance.

A light golden sword light flashed, Jia Tianlong's head fell to the ground, and several other leaders knelt down and surrendered simply.

"It's a flying sword! It's a flying sword! It turns out that Senior Brother Han is also a swordsman!"

"Horror, what exactly is this..."

"Only a handsome man like Senior Brother Han can match my imagination of a sword immortal. I love you, Senior Brother Han!"

Just to interrupt, in fact, the person who spoke in the end just said, "Senior Brother Li, I love you," and he was not a woman.

……

Different from the flying sword talisman used by Master Jinguang just now, Han Li used a serious flying sword that Gu Meng casually refined, but the materials were ordinary and the grade was not high. It was only a top-grade magic weapon.

There are three swords in total, each sword is three feet three, and together they are called the Three Yang and One Qi Swords.

The materials are all different kinds of bamboo, which absorb the rays of light in Caixia Mountain. The year has not caused Han Li to spawn too much, so it is enough to meet the minimum. After the cultivation level increases, these novice clothes will definitely need to be upgraded.

Han Li has a Shaoyang sword, Li Feiyu has a Zhongyang sword but can't use it without magic power, and Zhang Tie has an Laoyang sword. The three combined into one are the best magic weapons.

When Master Wang saw Jia Tianlong's death, Master Jin Guang didn't dare to breathe. Feeling that the overall situation had been decided, he walked out of the crowd with a large group of elders and guardians, and at the same time sent people to promote "surrender without killing" and so on. matter, while complimenting:

"That's great, Master Nephew Han, Master Nephew Li, Uncle Gu has gained two good disciples! I feel that your martial arts are no weaker than those of Uncle Gu, especially your nephew Han. I didn't expect you to be so good. It’s a cultivator!”

"How dare you, how dare you, what are you doing as an immortal cultivator? Master Gu's martial arts cultivation is so great that we can't even reach it."

Headmaster Wang had hit the horse's leg now, and both of them looked ugly.

In the past few years, they have felt that Gu Mengren is a good person, but he is a little bit cautious, so they must be vigilant about this kind of thing.

At this moment, several screams suddenly came from the side. The people who had spoken rudely to Gu Meng, including Master Jinguang, Silver Wolf, and Dog-headed Military Advisor, were all dead. They died from a piercing sword energy. Something similar to strange things came from the air. The roar of beasts and the sound of swords.

Li Feiyu originally thought that his master had arrived, but he could feel that it was martial arts essence, not magic power.

In his understanding, Gu Meng was the only one who could use this kind of over-the-horizon martial arts that could not see people but could see the sword energy to kill people. In fact, Gu Meng was the only one in the mortal world who had this kind of martial arts.

But he also found Han Li wielding the Shaoyang Golden Bamboo Sword and wandering around again, looking very vigilant.

"Han Li, what's wrong?"

"That sword energy... didn't come from the top of the mountain. If I feel right, it came from halfway up the mountain. And that sound wasn't from the Whale Killing Sword..."

"Indeed, when you say so... that's not the cry of a whale, but some kind of more ferocious beast? No, it's not just ferocious, there's also demonic nature in the remaining sword energy. Yes, this is not the master's sword. gas!"

"Did you feel it too? In addition to the violent demonic nature, I also felt a breath of fire that was incompatible with the deep sea, but the smell of bringing disaster was a bit specious... The person who came here may have a close relationship with the master..."

Han Li's vigilance did not lower because the visitor might be related to his master. He had been trained and played by Gu Meng many times.

Gu Meng guessed that this version of Han Li might be more innocent and kind-hearted. He thought that since he killed Mo Juren in advance, he should fulfill his responsibility as a role model, so he deceived Han Li several times.

With tears in my eyes, this kind of teacher is really touching. He successfully made Han Li's caution more like the original. The flying sword seems to be able to escape at any time.

"Hahaha, two nephews, your martial arts will is very sensitive, that's right! This is not the Whale Killing Sword, but the Fire Lin Sun Sword created by me!"

Before he finished speaking, a domineering middle-aged man, who seemed to have a Hunyuan aura around him, had already climbed to the top of the mountain.

"Excuse me, your Excellency?"

"I, the lord, have paid my respects to the mountain today precisely to defeat the martial arts legend that is my master Gu Meng!"

……

While Gu Meng was spending time squatting in Qixuanmen cultivating immortals, practicing martial arts, beating his disciples, and training Qixuanmen disciples, the clone Xiongba had already gone to Jiayuan City where Mo Mansion was located. A few years ago, Mo Juren had just When you die.

Gu Meng had also mentioned to Han Li that he would send other disciples whom he taught during his previous travels in Jianghu to Mo Mansion, but Han Li had never seen the appearance of his uncle Xiong Ba.

The timeline of Xiong Ba's death was relatively early. Among the girls in the Mo Mansion, four wives were still in a state of widowhood. Most affairs were handled by the Yan family. Mo Juren's lingering influence was still there, so life was fine for the time being.

The daughters are also younger. The eldest daughter, Mo Yuzhu, is not very old either, but she has already started practicing martial arts. The younger daughter, Mo Caihuan, was still a little girl at that time.

On the night Xiong Ba arrived, he entered Mo Mansion with the token left by Mo Juren, threw the dragon-patterned ring as the token, and appeared in front of the girls to their surprise.

"This Xiongba is Mo Juren's senior brother. He is dead. Before his death, Master promised that he would take care of his wife and daughter, and Master entrusted it to me. Although it is very troublesome, in the future, my brothers, sisters, and nieces will be taken care of by me. I’ll take care of it!”

"After completing this last thing, I won't owe Master anything."

The subsequent development was relatively boring. Gu Meng concentrated quite a lot of power on this avatar, which was equivalent to a puppet in the fake elixir realm, and the fighting was even more powerful.

On the other hand, the trouble left by Mo Juren is just a few big gangs in Jiayuan City, and behind them there may be a few low-level people in the immortal cultivating forces who are responsible for mortals. It will not happen until the demonic invasion of Jiayuan City, and now it mostly involves refining. Qi period.

He obviously doesn't have the strength to fight against Xiongba.

Catch them all in one fell swoop, kill them when you need to, without encountering any accidents in the process.

In fact, Mr. Yan was once told a lot by Mo Juren about what to do if someone came to deal with him in his absence, including what the different tokens probably meant when he saw them. The situation we are encountering now is neither good nor bad. I am not someone I can trust completely, but I must trust it completely.

Yan thought about the government agencies and did not listen to Mo Juren's words. She also wanted to test him to death and show off. Because Xiong Ba had been using martial arts and physical training, Yan had never thought that he would be so strong.

When Mo Juren left the trap, he once said that the Immortal family was superior, but except for the legendary martial arts myth Gu Kuangtu, no one in the martial arts could escape after being trapped by the black iron trap, including Mo Juren himself. .

But Xiongba obviously would not be trapped by the agency, so Yan was sanctioned——

clap clap clap!
Slap a few loud mouths hard, is this how you deal with your benefactor?
clap clap clap!
Several other ladies were also accomplices and fought together.

Xiongba found it troublesome, and promised Mo Juren to help him raise his wife and daughter, and was unwilling to kill anyone. Later, he simply brainwashed the four ladies using the soul-removing technique of Zuowangpian.

However, the daughters were still young, so they did not directly forcibly brainwash and engrave them. Mo Yuzhu liked martial arts, so Xiongba taught her amazing martial arts, and the relationship gradually improved during the teaching.

"Master! I have mastered the ultimate Jade Goddess skill!"

clap clap clap!
"What have you mastered? Eat my Jinfu Baquan! Can this level be called mastery? Give me more training!"

"Well, well, well... this is not bad, a big improvement."

"Master taught me well." Mo Yuzhu lowered his head, feeling a little shy for some reason.

"Why are you blushing? Today I will teach you new martial arts, Awei's Eighteen Styles!!"

"Let me use the iron fist of love to drive this martial arts into your body!"

The more rigorously Mo Yuzhu is trained, the more her skin becomes red and swollen from being beaten, the closer she becomes to Xiong Ba. Maybe this is her love for martial arts——

Of course, it is also possible that it was caused by the PPT. Gu Meng has always been very good at brainwashing.

Mo Caihuan has not grown up yet, she is ignorant of worldly affairs, a squeamish young lady, and not a lady at all. She is now a female brat. When she met Xiong Ba for the first time, she asked for a meeting gift, and she didn't even look at who Gu Meng was!

How could he spoil her!
"Uncle Xiong, why don't you give your lovely niece no gift when you meet her for the first time? Your mother is very strict, and the total pocket money she has saved is only more than ten thousand taels!"

"I have no money."

"How could your uncle be so stingy? He's far worse than my father... It's true..."

"Okay, then I do have a gift for you! Come here!"

"Really, what gift?"

clap clap clap!
"For your big mouth that loves to eat! (bushi)"

Since Mo Caihuan was still young, he wouldn't be slapped in the face like Mr. Yan, just a few spanks would be meaningful.

In this way, I had nothing to do in the Mo Mansion, and I couldn't practice as a puppet, so I found a job to do it first, and my job was to be a "gang leader".

After taking over the Jingjiao Society, they made some adjustments and changed their name to Tianxiahui.

With nothing to do, Xiong Ba unified all the forces in Jiayuan City.

With nothing to do, Xiongba unified the Lanzhou martial arts community together.

With nothing to do, Xiongba conquered nearly half of the martial arts forests in the Yue Kingdom.

With nothing to do, Xiongba will soon become a new generation of martial arts myths, and he is vaguely confronting the Qixuanmen.

Later, when Gu Meng realized the secret of tunnel foundation building and heavenly foundation building, he originally thought about how to enter the game. He could just sit and forget. The tunnel gathers dragon veins... Suddenly he remembered the trumpet of Xiongba.

The resources of the Yue Kingdom are so limited, and the resources of the entire Tiannan are almost completely wiped out. It is difficult to find wild level five and six monsters. Wherever there are spiritual veins and spiritual stones, they are occupied by sects of all sizes.

The Righteous Way, the Demonic Way, the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, casual cultivators, and a bunch of Nascent Souls. In the later stage, the Tiandao Alliance was created, but the boiled eggs were almost out of food, so they could only kill each other.

There are too many immortal cultivators, and they are all scourges that leave no trace behind. Of course, resources are getting less and less. In this case, everything is created to nourish people, and people have nothing to repay heaven!

Mulan invaded, the righteous path invaded, and the demonic path invaded again, like a matryoshka doll.

If the new comer uses the spiritual energy of the Yue Kingdom's Immortal Mountains, it is inevitable that he will have to fight against the seven major sects.

Gu Meng felt that there was a high probability that he could kill one or two old monsters in the early stage of Nascent Soul, but he would probably be injured, and it was not safe enough. Then he would gather the dragon veins of the mortal realm. The foundation building effect of the heavenly induction tunnel would be better.

Mortals have always been ignored. The most pressure they are given is up to the level of Jindan. It is most likely to build the foundation. State power is not something that the Nascent Soul old monster like the Shanmen Spirit Vein must fight for. Gu Meng has Nascent Soul combat power after he goes berserk. , must be able to bear the consequences.

There are only two big countries in Tiannan, one under the righteous way and the other under the evil way. There are dozens of other small and medium-sized countries. The Yue country and the neighboring Yuanwu country are both medium-sized.

Gu Meng is just building a foundation. If it lasts, it will definitely be enough to use a medium-sized country.

Other countries don’t know what is going on, they are probably weaker, and the Yue royal family is now controlled by the Black Evil Cult...

The Black Evil Cult has the Five Elements Blood Condensation Pill. It was this thing that gave Han Li the power in the original world line. He thought he could take it by himself, but he didn't expect that the pill didn't work. The publicity was obviously wrong and it was not a perfect pill. The superior elixir was finally given to Zhang Tie’s corpse puppet Quhun.

The specific configuration of the Black Evil Cult is a few blood warriors in the middle stage of foundation building and a leader at the peak of foundation building. The Yue Emperor has long been controlled. The configuration of the Black Evil Cult is definitely considered high-end in a mortal country, and normal immortal cultivators do not Will stay in the mortal country for a long time...

In other words, you can actually plan to steal the country by building the foundation. Mortals are really not taken seriously in the mortal world. Now there is no shortage of new blood with spiritual roots in the mortal world, so mortals are not important. What is lacking are single units that consume less resources in the early stage. Spiritual roots are lacking in resources.

If it weren't for the Black Evil Cult's fateful encounter with Han Li, even if the seven sects realized something was wrong and sent out the golden elixir, they would have run away long ago.

Then go beyond the country, there is no need to find someone weaker.

During the entire foundation building period, the main body should try to stay in the authentic foundation building location as much as possible, find a place that is close and easy to access the original plot to do hidden tasks, and strive to enjoy the maximum benefits of the three yuan foundation building, and obtain a first-grade golden elixir——

This is a unique setting for the three-point return of vitality. Gu Meng created it based on the basic chapter of the Nine-turn Yuan Gong and the enlightenment of the heavenly book. In fact, it is mainly powered by the addition of dark blue.

After reaching the peak of foundation building, you will have the opportunity to form stronger golden elixirs. The upper three levels are all powerful golden elixirs. Currently, it is just a framework and needs to be further optimized. After breaking through the foundation building, there will probably be new skill points.

Not counting the abilities shared by other worlds, a 10% or 10% golden elixir can kill Nascent Soul. In fact, if Gu Meng uses the Great Three Elements to build a foundation, he will definitely be able to fight a 10% golden elixir without considering other abilities.

Gu Meng cheated so blatantly, so it makes sense to jump to a higher level.

So Xiongba's previous actions all turned into foreshadowing, and he saved the effort that would have taken him two or three years to change people's hearts and gather luck, and do "The sky is dead and the sky is here to stand."

Moreover, unlike Gu Meng, a mortal, he didn't want to do this kind of thing himself, so it was appropriate for Xiong Ba to do it.

Xiongba is almost the leader of the martial arts alliance, and his face has "ambition" and "I want to dominate the world" written all over his face. It can be said that "the heart of Xiongba is known to everyone on the road"!

It's normal for him to suddenly want to steal the country!

What does what Xiongba did have to do with Gu Meng? In the end, maybe Gu Meng will be asked to restrain Xiong Ba!
This time Xiongba went up the mountain, the outcome was already determined, and the outcome was Gu Meng's comment: "Golden scales are just things in the pond, they turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds!"

After that, we have to start the Domination of the World plot, attack the Yue Kingdom, gather the dragon veins, and by the way, we can even complete the Heavenly Dao Foundation Building in the Zuowang Chapter at the same time.

Hiss, I actually managed to reach this point so many years in advance...

Yes, it’s all within my plan!

I, Gu Meng, am so smart, I really have amazing wisdom, hahahaha!

Who says that amazing luck is not a kind of wisdom? The same is true for Gu Meng's layout.

Just like the ancient Greek god of wisdom, Metis, the first wife of Zeus, was "eaten" by the smooth-talking Zeus, and she couldn't see any wisdom at all. She was not as good as Gu Meng.

The great powers of the prehistoric times, including the immortals who became gods, became enlightened either in front of the Three Emperors or simply in front of the heaven. When they were hit one by one, it was called a calamity-induced delusion at best, or a mindless follower of one's heart at worst. No wonder where the wisdom lies.

The saints calculated over and over again, but in the end they still had to play a game for the sake of face.

The same goes for Dagu Meng. The point of "amazing wisdom" is never about wisdom.

……

Not long after Xiong Ba went up the mountain, several more people walked out behind him, namely Mo Yuzhu, Mo Fengwu and Mo Caihuan. They were now his three apprentices.

Under Xiongba's domineering power, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Han Li didn't know when he had retreated behind Master Wang.

"This brother is the famous Xiongba, the leader of the Tianxiahui Gang? You said that your master is too - ho - ho -"

Ma Dayuan wanted to say a few words, but suddenly his throat was grabbed by a big hand and he was lifted up directly.

This feeling was unmistakable. It was the choke-grabbing technique taught by his master, but Xiong Ba's skill was much stronger than his own, and Ma Dayuan was about to lose consciousness.

"Junior brother Ma, haven't you also practiced the choke grip? It's really disappointing... Your martial arts is a mess and it has disgraced the master. As a senior brother, I have to clear the door for him today."

Xiong Ba looked at Ma Dayuan. There was no murderous intent in his eyes. Instead, he was filled with the love of his elders, like a loving father, but his hands were getting tighter and tighter.

"save--"

The flying sword thrust out, and the clouds were heavy. Han Li and Li Feiyu, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, took action at the same time!
But they were all blocked by the air shield surrounding Xiongba!

"Three points of return to vitality!!"

"?!"

Neither Han Li nor Li Feiyuye expected that this person would actually master the master's three-point return energy!
Both of their butts felt a dull pain.

They all remembered the days when they were beaten violently by Gu Meng.

……

　Today I am actually compiling the outline of the Secret Volume. I have thought of a good ending for the Secret Volume, but for this volume, mortals have to write a few more chapters to build the foundation and establish the sect, and recruit talents, such as Xin Ruyin, maybe I also want to say hello to the seven sects. In fact, the follow-up version of the mortal chapter is okay, and some of the collapsed ones have been rescued. If it is not good, I will travel through a few chapters and change the world.

　　But this volume is not for mortals, so I can’t keep writing it. It’s very long, so I still have to change it.

　　I'm the kind of writer who can play with the content casually and listen to part of it, but the framework will still be written according to the original plan, so there's no need to persuade me to write "Mortals" in a particularly long way. That's what writers are like.

　　How many chapters might Naruto have to write? It should be very soon, and there will be some modern chapters as well. The modern chapters may be very slow. I have plans to add a lot of original plots to engage in real martial arts, spiritual energy recovery, and the modern Holy Grail War. I want to see how popular it is. No one Just book it and I'll speed it up.

　　Make money, not be shabby, and have nothing to do with myself. I have promised to write about a certain world as long as I want, so I don’t have a bad character.

　　Zhu Xian should also be included, and I should also be included. Even if the average is ten chapters each, Mystery will have to be queued at least until next month...it may not be able to be queued. After that, there will be Super God Mechanic, and now I myself I want to write about mystery, but I have to wait in line.
