Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Beihaizhou.

The bottom of the Arctic ice abyss.

In the dead silence of cold, the sound of the cold current whistling constantly echoed.

The cold current spewed out from the huge dark and ferocious turtle head with thorns protruding like a forest.

And the young Xuanyuanzi stood quietly on the turtle head at this moment, watching Wang Ba's arrival with a smile.

"Hello, Senior Xuanyuanzi."

Wang Ba bowed respectfully.

Bing Daoren also walked out of his body and bowed slightly to Xuanyuanzi.

"No need to be polite."

Xuan Yuanzi seemed to have guessed the purpose of his visit. He gently lifted Wang Ba to stop him in the air, and then said with a smile:

"The Chaos Source and World Eaters outside the world are indeed rare opportunities for the creatures in the world, but if you want to seize this opportunity, it depends on your own ability."

"And even if it can be achieved, it may not be a good thing."

Wang Ba was not surprised by Xuan Yuanzi's foresight. Hearing this, he asked curiously:

"May I ask what you mean by 'may not be a good thing'?"

Xuan Yuanzi seemed to be in a good mood. Hearing Wang Ba's question, he smiled and said:

"Let's talk about this later. You have entered the state of transformation and have the two fourth-level Taoist soldiers with you. Come and try it. Let me see your achievements during this period."

Wang Ba was startled, and then he also had a desire to try his skills.

"Then I'm sorry."

Without hesitation, the Xuanhuang Dao Domain emerged on his body, and then the Golden Pattern Ink Dragon Dao Soldier and the Moro Giant Elephant Dao Soldier emerged one after another, turning into golden pattern black and white gauze clothes. In an instant, both the magic power and the blood power surged.

The Dao Domain of the two twisted together also merged into the Xuanhuang Dao Domain at the same time.

Then it quickly merged into the 'Heavenly Falling Knife' in his hand, aimed at a thorn on the turtle head below that was like armor, and chopped it down with all his strength.

The Xuanhuang knife light suddenly lit up, and cut directly on the thorn.

'Ping! '

A fierce and piercing sound like breaking gold and breaking jade sounded in the frozen seabed, and immediately aroused countless broken ice flowers, which fell all over the seabed.

And on the thorn that was cut by the knife light, a blood-colored light lit up slightly, and then quickly annihilated.

Wang Ba's face was slightly condensed. Although he had guessed that it was unlikely to break the opponent's defense, he couldn't help but feel a bit of incredible emotion when he saw this scene.

"I couldn't even break the outermost layer of the blood and qi protection..."

The last time he was in the late Yuanying stage, he couldn't break the blood and qi on the surface with all his strength, and he couldn't even arouse the slightest reaction of the blood and qi armor.

Although he aroused a little reaction this time, he still couldn't break it.

It even looked like he might not have the ability to break even the outermost layer in the stage of transformation.

At this moment, even a determined person like Wang Ba felt a sense of powerlessness in the face of this giant turtle.

However, what surprised Wang Ba was that Xuan Yuanzi seemed to be in a better mood than before.

A glimmer of light flashed across his eyes, and he said with relief:

"I really didn't misjudge you. It's only been three or four hundred years, and you have made such great progress. If you continue at this speed, I'm afraid that in ten thousand years at most, I will have a chance to escape!"

"Ten thousand years?"

Wang Ba was stunned.

Although he didn't know how many ten thousand years he had accumulated, he was still a little surprised to hear this.

He has been practicing for only eight or nine hundred years.

Ten thousand years is too far for him at this moment, especially the so-called great catastrophe of heaven and earth, which is only a hundred years away from now.

Thinking of this, he suddenly came to his senses and put away his Taoist soldiers and Tianluodao.

"Your life treasure can't keep up."

Xuan Yuanzi glanced at the Tianluodao that Wang Ba put away and shook his head slightly.

Then he lightly nodded.

A cold light was spit out from the turtle head below.

The cold light flew over and landed in front of Wang Ba.

Wang Ba was slightly surprised, and then the cold light faded, revealing a silver ore as big as a millstone that was constantly flowing.

As soon as this thing appeared, Wang Ba was shocked to find that the space around the ore was rapidly twisted and sunken, as if it could not bear the weight.

The pervasive cold breath, even through the magic barrier, quickly covered Wang Ba's Xuanhuang Taoist robe with a layer of frost.

"This is..."

Wang Ba's eyes flashed with surprise and confusion.

He specialized in beast control, and had recently dabbled in divination and formations, but he only knew some basic things about the spiritual ore involved in this refining. The silver ore in front of him was obviously extraordinary and obviously beyond his ability.

Xuan Yuanzi casually said:

"This is a piece of seventh-level ore that I found in this seabed before the last world was downgraded... I don't know what it's called, but it's very cold and unusual, which suits me very well, so I call it 'Han Ming Stone'. I swallowed it and nurtured it until now. It was originally much larger than this, but now only this much is left."

"Seventh-level ore!"

"Is this the seventh-level ore?"

Wang Ba's heart couldn't help but jump when he heard it!

He couldn't help but stare at this silver ore, looking it up and down carefully.

When his spiritual sense tried to probe into it, he felt frozen instantly, and he immediately withdrew his spiritual sense.

Not to mention the seventh-level ore, even the sixth-level ore in the inventory of the sect is very rare, and it is almost impossible to see it. In the subsequent mining, it is almost impossible for the sixth-level ore to be excavated.

This is not only because the heaven and earth have been downgraded, the spiritual veins have shrunk, and it is difficult to breed high-grade spiritual ores, but also because of the excessive mining of spiritual ores by cultivators of all generations. Even if the Wanxiang Sect has mastered the art of growing ores, it is difficult to grow high-grade ores, and at most it is only the fifth grade.

Even the fifth grade often requires a huge time cost.

Therefore, low-grade ores and magic tools are not uncommon in the entire Xiaocang Realm. Every once in a while, large sects and major forces will also sell a large amount of ores to the surrounding casual cultivators to grab spiritual stones and other wild spiritual materials.

But even the fourth-grade magic tools are very rare.

Therefore, when Wang Ba saw this ore, he was shocked.

He then realized something and couldn't help but look at Xuan Yuanzi, hesitating:

"Is it the senior..."

"It's a gift to you, but it's a pity that the nature of this spiritual ore is too extreme and doesn't fit with your own Dao domain. It can't perfectly bring out the strengths of your Dao domain. If there are other spiritual ores of different zodiac signs in the future, they can be gradually integrated into your magic weapon, so that your Dao domain can be fully brought out."

Xuan Yuanzi said with some regret.

"No, it's already very good. Thank you for the gift!"

Wang Ba shook his head repeatedly, and then quickly put the 'Han Ming Stone' away separately.

He didn't feel too embarrassed.

He saw it clearly and knew that Xuan Yuanzi's gift was because he saw his potential. The two of them had a mutually beneficial transaction relationship.

With this Han Ming Stone, the Tian Luo Dao, which was already at the fourth-order limit under Wang Ba's nourishment, will definitely have a qualitative leap.

It may not reach the sixth order all at once, but even the fifth-order Tian Luo Dao will obviously improve him.

However, Wang Ba still remembered this favor.

Seeing that Wang Ba did not refuse in a pedantic way, Xuan Yuanzi's eyes also flashed with appreciation, and he pointed out: "This thing is most suitable for you, the incarnation of the ice path."

Then he changed the subject:

"Just now I said that the world eaters and the source of chaos are rare opportunities for the creatures in the world. I think you have already known some of this through your sixth-level spirit beast."

Seeing that he was back to the main topic, Wang Ba nodded slightly.

He also communicated with Da Fu. Although Da Fu's expression ability was average, he also understood part of it with the supplement of the burrowing sea otter.

In the past, Da Fu and the monks of the three continents were sucked away by the earth veins and were almost dying. As a result, they were pushed to the vicinity of the Yuan magnetic real membrane eye by the burrowing sea otter and absorbed a large amount of Yuan magnetic power. Although they barely survived, they almost turned into a sculpture like Yu Chen.

Fortunately, the membrane eye gradually grew bigger for some reason, and its body was originally stuck on the membrane eye, and finally slid out, and the burrowing sea otter also slid out.

As a result, they encountered a pink rabbit in a bad state.

It was entangled with blue-black air all over its body, and it seemed to be dying at any time.

But what was unexpected was that Dafu seemed to have a natural ability to resist these blue-black airs, and accidentally eliminated these blue-black airs completely, and also eliminated a lot of his own Yuan magnetic power.

The pink rabbit came back to life, and then Dafu and the burrowing sea otter followed behind the pink rabbit, using the blue-black air to open the way, hunting down the lone world eaters, and then eating, Dafu became what he is now.

The so-called pink rabbit, Yuanci Taoist had seen it with his own eyes, and it was almost certain that it was a plague demon.

The blue-black air, if nothing unexpected, was the plague air controlled by the plague demon.

According to Wang Ba's speculation, Dafu should have accidentally returned to his ancestral state in a harsh environment with excessive accumulation of primordial magnetism, touched the source of the blood of the stone dragon lizard, and stimulated part of the blue dragon blood.

The blue dragon belongs to wood, has the transformation of hundreds of herbs, and is the most restrained against plague and epidemics.

But Dafu was able to enter the sixth level in such a short time, obviously not simply because of the blue dragon blood. After all, Wang Ba has more than one or two blood of divine beasts in his hands, and the time of obtaining the mixed-blood white tiger is not much later than Dafu. Even when Dafu first entered the fourth level, the white tiger was already perfect in the fourth level.

So the only possibility is that Dafu ate those world eaters outside the world.

Wang Ba came here to get a more accurate answer from Xuan Yuanzi.

"Let's talk about the Chaos Essence first. According to the memory of my predecessor, this Chaos Essence gave birth to almost 90% of the existence in the Sea of ​​Realms."

"The Chaos Essence can also be said to be the source of all things, at least in the Third Sea of ​​Realms."

"For the creatures in the realm, as long as they can withstand some of the shortcomings of the Chaos Essence, before the fusion realm, it is the most top-notch cultivation treasure."

Xuan Yuanzi's eyes showed memories, and he spoke slowly:

"Whether it is a realm or a realm eater, they are all born from the interaction of the Chaos Essence and the 'Tao'. The 'Tao' is different, so every realm and every realm eater is also different, and even very different. , you should have seen that some world eaters are only at level 4 or 5, but some world eaters can confront a realm with their physical bodies. "

"The difference between realms is even greater."

"And the temptation of realms to world eaters is naturally self-evident. Whenever a world gradually ages and begins to decline, it will emit a unique smell like the blood of fish and beasts in the sea, and will soon attract a large number of world eaters like sharks to swarm in, snatch the Chaos Essence from the mouth of the world, and wait for the world to be destroyed so that they can have a full meal. "

"Only when the world declines will world eaters be attracted?"

Wang Ba thought thoughtfully.

"Yes, this is the survival instinct of world eaters."

"It's also a law in the world sea, just like carrion always attracts those scavenging creatures."

Xuan Yuanzi answered affirmatively, and then continued:

"Of course, world eaters are all over the world sea. Even if they are not attracted, there will always be some world eaters wandering around a world unintentionally. This is not uncommon."

"It's just that the world in its peak state is often full of devouring external expansion, which is full of dangers for the surrounding world eaters. Therefore, it is often difficult for creatures in a powerful world to encounter world eaters, and it is almost impossible for them to encounter world eaters. It is impossible to penetrate the boundary membrane from the inside and leave the world to obtain the source of chaos, because in a strong world, the boundary membrane is so tough that it is impossible to be as fragile as the Ogura Kai now. "

"Its resistance is particularly fierce against all creatures that try to destroy itself."

"This is what I call a rare opportunity."

It paused and concluded:

"Compared to those powerful big worlds, the creatures in a world that is about to decline are more likely to come into contact with the world eaters and the source of chaos outside the world. If we seize the opportunity, we may not be able to give birth to creatures that can transcend the third sea in the future. Creatures.”

"There is great destruction and danger, but there is also great fortune!"

"So every time at this time, there will always be some innate gods and demons who take the risk and give up everything to join such a world."

Wang Ba was a little shocked at first when he heard this, but then he suddenly understood.

Indeed, for innate gods and demons, being limited by their status as world eaters cannot become more powerful, which means that there must be innate gods and demons who are willing to give up everything to fight for a future.

Since they are all about fighting, I would naturally prefer to fight for a big one.

"Of course, if you are too weak and your true spirit enters the world, you will sink into ignorance and be unable to understand your predecessor, I'm afraid it will not be a good thing."

Xuan Yuanzi shook his head slightly and sighed, then added:

"However, even if the true spirit is covered in dust and the old wisdom has not awakened, if it is an innate god or demon, it should be different from ordinary people. It can call the wind and rain, speak the law, or be charismatic and be loved by everyone, and so on. These are all inherent in it. "Tao" is at work, and such people can easily stand out like a trap in a bag. "

"What you say follows your rules...different from ordinary people..."

Wang Ba's heart was shocked, and almost immediately he thought of Qian Baimao, who was currently in retreat within the sect.

Thinking of the other party's incredible special ability, isn't it the characteristic of the innate gods and demons that Xuan Yuanzi said?

"Then how to awaken its true spirit?"

Wang Yan couldn't help but wonder.

"Can't wake me up."

Xuan Yuanzi shook his head slightly:

"This is different from the monks in the world. Unless he himself clears the mirror and clearly understands the past and present life, no matter what others do, it will be difficult to achieve results."

"That's it."

Wang Haowei felt a little regretful.

He really wanted to know whether Qian Baimao was an innate god or demon.

However, he quickly thought of the original question:

"But why does the senior say that such opportunities may not be a good thing for monks?"

Hearing this, Xuan Yuanzi shook his head slightly and asked a question:

"What do you think the ascension catastrophe in the world sea is?"

Wang Yan couldn't help but be startled.

What is the Ascension Tribulation?

This question may sound a bit confusing.

But after Wang Hao thought about it at this moment, he didn't know how to explain it, because he didn't know anything about the ascension catastrophe. He only knew that when he reached a certain level, he could trigger the ascension catastrophe and help the monks leave the world. , heading to a more perfect world on the other side.

Therefore, it is also called the thunder tribulation.

But the reason and principle were completely unknown to him.

Regarding Wang Ba's confusion, Xuan Yuanzi smiled slightly and seemed not surprised.

He put his hands behind his hands and looked up at the sky, his gaze seemed to penetrate the ice above and even pass through the boundary membrane.

The voice became a little deeper:

"In fact, almost everyone has never thought about this problem, and I am the same. But I have been trapped here for so many years, and the waiting thunder disaster has not yet arrived. This makes me start to think more."

"Combined with my predecessor's experience of wandering in the boundary sea for many years, I gradually came up with some guesses."

Wang Yan couldn't help but pricked up his ears. He vaguely felt that he seemed to be approaching an incredible truth.

Xuan Yuanzi did not directly express his thoughts, but asked another question:

"You are good at controlling beasts. Let me ask you, if you want to raise a spiritual beast with great potential, what do you need to do?"

Wang Hao was slightly startled, but immediately said quickly:

"First select the appropriate breed and bloodline, then feed it, cultivate it with spiritual materials, wait until it is perfect, and then use big medicine to help it break through the grade..."

His voice stopped abruptly at this moment!

He looked at Xuan Yuanzi in disbelief:

"Senior is saying..."

Xuan Yuanzi smiled slightly:

"It seems that you have also thought of it. Yes, does this Ascension Thunder Tribulation seem like an invisible hand that selects the creatures that have been well-raised and meet certain conditions? And then transfers them to another place for cultivation. place?"

"It's just that it doesn't need to be as troublesome as you. Different worlds themselves correspond to different requirements. You only need to lower the thunder tribulation to complete the selection and final cultivation at the same time. Repeat this continuously, and from the weak Xiaocang World, Go to another big world, and after the Mahayana, there will be thunder tribulations to help you enter the higher second realm sea."

Wang Ba's heart was shaken, and he rarely lost his composure:

"So, we are actually spiritual beasts that are raised?"

He thought of more.

If it is according to Xuan Yuanzi's statement, then this world is like the assembly line of the previous life from the beginning, constantly cultivating one cultivator after another, and the many levels in the middle are like the screening conditions set on the assembly line, until the "goods" that meet the conditions are screened out.

The calamity of ascension is the palm of the "worker" sitting next to the assembly line.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt!

Xuan Yuanzi shook his head slightly:

"That may not be the case."

"The sea of ​​​​boundaries is vast, almost boundless. Even if we are endless, how small are we compared to this sea of ​​​​boundaries?"

"Maybe it is possible, but it is not necessary... So, I also thought of another possibility."

It paused, and then asked another question:

"Why do you think the will of heaven and earth in Xiaocang Realm restricts the creatures in the realm in various ways?"

"The cultivators of Lianxu can obviously transcend the tribulation and ascend to heaven, but for tens of thousands of years, they have been restricted in the realm and cannot leave, and can only die in depression?"

Wang Ba's mind instantly flashed the Xiaocang Realm that he had seen outside the realm under the leadership of Li Yuehua.

Almost blurted out:

"It is because the outside world is short of Chaos Source, and the ascending cultivators or spirit beasts will take away a lot of resources. In this way, Xiaocang Realm will not be able to make ends meet, which will only accelerate the extinction. In order to protect itself, these restrictions are imposed."

"Yes!"

Xuan Yuanzi nodded in appreciation, and then pondered:

"Xiaocang Realm is for self-protection, which is understandable. Then, the boundary sea constantly brings down thunder tribulations for qualified creatures. Is it also for self-protection that it has to do so?"

Wang Ba frowned slightly, not quite understanding.

Xuan Yuanzi continued to explain in depth:

"For example, the boundary sea is actually composed of a series of boundaries. Once a boundary fluctuates, will it affect the stability of the boundary sea? The fluctuation of the boundary either comes from the inside or the outside. The cultivator of the Refining Void in Huangjizhou tore the boundary membrane in anger. Of course, it was because the Xiaocang Realm was extremely weak, but it was obviously an internal problem."

"In other words, cultivators who exceed the limit of the boundary are a threat to the boundary itself, and indirectly affect the boundary sea. In order to keep the boundary sea stable, the special mechanism of Ascension Tribulation has gradually formed."

"Nip some dangers in the bud in advance."

"But for a world like Xiaocang Realm that is already terminally ill, it has become a fuse for accelerated destruction. Therefore, the instinct of Xiaocang Realm conflicts with the will of the boundary sea."

Wang Ba suddenly realized that although what Xuan Yuanzi said did not seem to have much basis, he felt that there might be such a possibility.

It can indeed explain all the anomalies in Xiaocang Realm.

However, he still remembered what Xuan Yuanzi had said before, and wondered:

"But what does this have to do with the cultivators obtaining the source of chaos?"

Xuan Yuanzi smiled:

"Since the overall situation is to maintain stability, the most important thing about the Ascension Tribulation is to identify the person who is going through the tribulation and send him to the world he should go to. For example, most of the cultivators in the Xiaocang Realm have ascended to a realm called 'Yuntian Realm'."

Hearing this slightly familiar name, Wang Ba nodded slightly. He didn't know much about the rest, but at least the three ancestors of Dajin are now in Yuntian Realm.

"But once you absorb the source of chaos, or trigger the Ascension Tribulation outside the realm, whether it is a cultivator or a spirit beast, you will no longer have the breath of Xiaocang Realm. After all, the Ascension Tribulation has no consciousness. Once it is misjudged, it is unknown where you will be sent."

"If you are lucky, you will be sent to a realm suitable for cultivation. If you are unlucky..."

Xuan Yuanzi shook his head slightly and said nothing more.

There are so many realms in the sea of ​​realms, and the realms that are not suitable for survival far exceed the worlds such as Xiaocang Realm and Yuntian Realm.

Then he added:

"These are my guesses, but according to the observations of my predecessor, the situation is roughly like this."

Wang Ba was shocked and thought of Da Fu at the first time, whispering:

"Is this the disadvantage of the source of chaos?"

Xuan Yuanzi nodded:

"I won't say much about the eaters of realms. It is a combination of Tao and Chaos Source. After refining, it is indeed helpful for cultivation and is also of great benefit to spirit beasts. However, we must remember that the Tao of eaters is often incomplete. Once they swallow too much and do not sort it out in time, I am afraid that they will mess up their minds and bite themselves back."

As he said, he also taught him some ways to sort out the Tao of eaters of realms.

In Wang Ba's mind, he gradually had some ideas for cultivation.

"By the way, this Bing Daoist..."

Wang Ba was about to speak.

Xuan Yuanzi took the initiative to say:

"Your clone should continue to stay with me. First, it will help you nourish your life magic weapon. Second, it will be easier for him to perfect the Dao domain here. In this way, you can integrate him, and the effect will be much better than what you have integrated now."

After hearing Xuan Yuanzi's words, Wang Ba said no more.

He bowed to the other party in gratitude, and then asked some questions about the Dao domain, and then said goodbye and left.

Xuan Yuanzi did not keep him. The great catastrophe of heaven and earth was coming, and Wang Ba staying here would only waste time.

After leaving the Arctic Ice Abyss, Wang Ba soon stopped in front of a snowy mountain not far from the Ice Abyss.

On the snowy mountain, there was an ice and snow temple.

There was a plaque hanging on the eaves of the temple, with the words "Daxueshan Dalun Temple" written on it.

Wang Ba stopped at a distance and released Wu Yuanwang from the spirit beast bag.

Sensing the breath of Wang Ba and Wu Yuanwang, several monks flew out of the Snow Mountain Zen Temple.

They shouted from afar:

"Welcome to the Buddha!"

Wu Yuanwang turned his head to look at Wang Ba, and a rare reluctance flashed in his eyes.

Wang Ba was also a little reluctant in his heart. He and Wu Yuanwang had been separated for more than 300 years, and they had to separate again not long after they met. He had to do this just to allow Wu Yuanwang to improve his understanding of "Yuankong Wuxiang" under the influence of the monks here.

After all, although Wu Yuanwang has made rapid progress now, he still seems much weaker in the face of the great catastrophe of heaven and earth that Xuanyuanzi pays attention to.

He whispered to comfort her:

"Your cultivation is not enough now, you still need to practice well. When this catastrophe is over, I will come to take you back."

As he spoke, several monks in the distance had already landed not far from the man and the ape.

He looked respectful and kept his distance.

One of the shirtless monks heard this and suddenly said:

"The catastrophe of heaven and earth is coming. If the donors want to help the Buddha go further, I may have a way."

"Hmm?"

Wang Ba was slightly stunned and glanced at the Wu Ape King.

Wu Yuan Wang also looked at the shirtless monk Zhaojie in confusion and said:

"What is the method? Why don't I know?"

As the reincarnated Buddha, Wu Yuan Wang has an extraordinary status in the hearts of the monks. Even Zhaojie immediately bowed his head and said truthfully:

"In the Great Wheel Buddha Kingdom of Xituozhou, there is a 'Ten Thousand Buddhas Relics Pagoda', which contains the relics of the monks of the Ten Thousand Buddhas of Xituozhou. In the past, when the great flood broke out, no one dared to take it because of respect for the Bodhisattva Xinyuan, and it was eventually submerged in the surging flood. Now that the flood has subsided, if you return to Xituozhou, you may be able to find this pagoda to help the Buddha practice and revive the Buddha Kingdom."

"Xituozhou...Ten Thousand Buddhas Relics Pagoda..."

Wang Ba's heart moved slightly. He originally planned to travel around Xiaocangjie, and now he suddenly heard such a secret and became interested.

His eyes swept through the monks in front of him, and finally fell on the shirtless old monk Zhaojie, and smiled slightly:

"Then please accompany me for a while."

Zhaojie was slightly startled, and then looked at Wu Yuanwang.

Wu Yuanwang would not refuse, and nodded.

The old monk immediately raised one palm forward, chanted a Buddhist name, and then asked curiously:

"Donyue, shall we go now?"

Wang Ba shook his head slightly, his figure flashed, and then he appeared beside Zhaojie in the surprised eyes of the monks.

"Before that, please accompany me to a place first!"

The next moment, a divine pattern appeared in Wang Ba's eyes, and then the two disappeared in an instant.

Only a few monks who were in the state of transformation were left with astonishment on their faces.

How did Wang Ba disappear? They couldn't see it at all.

"I didn't expect Wang Tanyue to be so unpredictable after he entered the state of transformation..."

Recalling that when he first came, he was still a Yuanying cultivator who was not regarded as equal by them. In just a few hundred years, he has reached a level that they cannot understand. The eyes of Zhao Cheng and others could not help but become extremely complicated for a while. (End of this chapter)
