Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

Three months later, South China Sea, Lingbao Island.

In the Fire Spirit Hall, two people sat opposite each other.

Xu Yang chuckled: "Previously, the fire essence veins were excessively depleted during the sword refining. It will take at least several decades of cultivation before it can be restarted. The cooperation with your pavilion has to be postponed for a while. Please forgive me, Fairy Lu."

"What are you talking about, Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan?"

Lu Mingyu also smiled lightly: "Who in the South China Sea cultivation world doesn't know Youwei now. It's an honor for me, Mingyue Pavilion, to cooperate with a great master of weapon refining. How dare I ask for more? I hope you will take good care of me in the future."

"It's natural."

Xu Yang followed the donkey down the slope and turned to ask: "I heard that some time ago, all the major holy places in the Central Plains gathered in the wilderness to compete for the legendary Five Elements Immortal Palace and the Celestial Dao Fruit. I wonder what the final result will be?"

"Fellow Taoist are you also interested in this matter?"

These words made Lu Mingyu a little surprised, but he didn't think much about it: "The battle for the Five Elements Immortal Palace has come to an end, and the result was unexpected. The Five Elements Immortal Palace was actually a feint, attracting attention, and the real Five Elements Immortal Roots It is not in it, but it was obtained by a mysterious person in the Void Spirit Cave."

"oh?"

Xu Yang raised his eyebrows with great interest: "What mysterious person?"

"This... is unknown."

Lu Mingyu's eyes changed slightly, and he changed the topic without leaving any trace: "However, there are rumors circulating in the market that this person has a close relationship with Lord Xu Ling, and he even took the body of Lord Xu Ling to rebuild his body."

Xu Yang smiled: "The rumors among the people are really unbelievable."

"But it may not be without reason."

Lu Mingyu said in a deep voice: "This man is not only proficient in the Five Elements method, but has also cultivated the ultimate void magical power. The old Holy Master of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, regardless of the damage to the Immortal Foundation, tried his best to keep him, but the Five Elements Immortal Spirit The roots also went away with him and disappeared.”

"Yeah?"

Xu Yang smiled and asked again: "The Five Elements Immortal Sect's bamboo basket failed to draw water, why can't it be so violent that it will fly into the sky?"

"Of course I am furious, but the matter is a foregone conclusion. What can I do if I get angry again?"

Lu Mingyu was also a bit gloating, and said with a chuckle: "In the end, we can only stop the loss in time and seize the Five Elements Immortal Mansion to make up for the loss."

"It's also wise."

Xu Yang nodded: "What's the result?"

Lu Mingyu smiled and said: "Although the Five Elements Immortal Mansion is a cover for Lord Xu Ling to attract people's attention, it is able to hide from the sky and dazzle all the great masters and immortals. It also has real materials. It is itself a A high-grade immortal artifact, which also contains the innate essence of the Five Elements and other rare treasures, led to a fierce battle in the major holy places. In the end, the Five Elements Immortal Sect won the Immortal Mansion, while the Great Sun Immortal Sect, Beidou Immortal Sect and Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion each won the mansion. The rare treasures are all somewhat harvested, so the trip is barely worth it."

"Is this the result?"

Xu Yang groaned and analyzed: "The Five Elements Immortal Sect captured Lord Xu Ling, firstly, for the Five Elements Immortal Root, to seize the Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit, and secondly, for the Five Elements Merit Pool, to make up for the inheritance foundation. Now, although the former has not succeeded, it has also been obtained. Entering the Five Elements Immortal Palace is enough to make up for the damage to the Five Directions Merit Pool."

"good."

Lu Mingyu also agreed: "The mysterious man suspected to be Lord Xu Ling escaped to nowhere by using the method of moving in the void. Even the Mahayana Immortal is difficult to trace. And the major holy places have successively experienced the war between the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Stars and the Five Elements Immortal Mansion. All Mahayana people are in urgent need of recuperation and restoration of their immortal power, even the Five Elements Immortal Sect is no exception, so there should be no major events happening in the Northern Realm in a short period of time."

"That's very good."

Xu Yang nodded and said approvingly: "The world is at peace, so we can cultivate quietly in peace!"

"It's just peace in the Central Plains."

Lu Mingyu sighed: "As the major holy places are recuperating, chaos will inevitably break out in the wilderness, and the South China Sea is no exception. Now the dispute between the South China Sea Sect and Xuanyin Island has reached a critical juncture. With the help of fellow Taoists, Cangwu Sword Master has greatly increased his strength. We must take this opportunity to establish victory..."

After saying that, he looked at Xu Yang again and couldn't help but reveal a wry smile.

The Central Plains are at peace, but the South China Sea is changing again, and the world is constantly fighting. Even though she, Mingyue Pavilion, has to be careful and walk on thin ice, how can she be like the master of Wanjian Pavilion, who lives deep in the island, carefree and watches the world's events with a smile?

But this is also his skill. How can a sixth-level weapon refiner go nowhere in the world?

Not to mention that he had been refining swords for Li Cangwu before, and he had inherited a huge favor from the Nanhai sect. Even if Xuanyin Island reversed the situation and became the leader of the side sect of the South China Sea, he should be treated with courtesy and not dare to betray him easily. .

This is the weight of a sixth-level grandmaster!

Based on this, how the situation in the South China Sea changes has little impact on him, and he can still sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

…

There was another round of chatting, talking about the south and the north, until the guests and hosts had a good time, and then they said goodbye and left.

After seeing Lu Mingyu off and returning to the Fire Spirit Hall, Xu Yang didn't say much, sat back on the cloud couch and closed his eyes.

One side is closed, the other is opened, the boundary suddenly turns, and we have arrived in an ice cave.

Northern Xinjiang!

Three months ago, in order to break through the blockade of Juechenzi's "Great Five Elements Ice Soul Divine Light", he decisively pushed the Shattered God of War mecha into the most extreme overload state, at the cost of evaporating a massive amount of spiritual stones and destroying billions of magic weapons. Shattering the void, crossing the boundaries, escaping from the wild west to the northern polar region.

After escaping to northern Xinjiang, the "Broken Void Monument" was also on the verge of damage. It was covered with cracks and was on the verge of shattering.

Fortunately, Xu Yang had already mobilized "Bai Yujing" to assist here. He took the nearly damaged Shattered Void Monument into Bai Yujing and sealed it with the Five Elements method to prevent Jue Chenzi from following him or Lord Xu Ling. They took the opportunity to cause trouble and escaped.

Xu Yang now has the cultivation of becoming a god. With the help of the Yang Shen differentiation method and the help of skill characteristics, he can separate up to two "Yang Shen clones" to control the mecha. Together with the original body, he can barely achieve "One Qi". The effect of "transforming the three pure things".

In this way, we can send the "Broken God of War" to fight in the Void Spirit Cave while at the same time mobilize Bai Yujing to go to northern Xinjiang to support him.

Nowadays, Bai Yujing is controlled by his Yang Shen clone, and all the residents there have moved out, staying in a secret spiritual island in the South China Sea.

This is done to guard against the Five Elements Immortal Sect and the Xu Ling Lord.

In this way, after three months, the battle for the Five Elements Immortal Mansion has been settled, but Jue Chenzi and others have not finally arrived. It is basically certain that the Five Elements Immortal Sect cannot find him and cannot locate the Five Elements Immortal Root.

Without the biggest threat of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, the next thing would be simple.

Xu Yang changed his mind and went to the core of the mecha, Bai Yujing and Qilin Palace.

The five white jade palaces, with the unicorn in the center, converge into the five elements, sealing the time and space of heaven, earth and space.

When Xu Yang appeared in the palace, he saw a stone tablet full of cracks and dim, like a candle in its waning years and a lamp that had run out of oil.

It is the Shattered Void Monument!

This low-grade immortal weapon belonging to the void element is on the verge of damage and may be broken at any time.

This is the price Xu Yang paid.

A fairy mecha, billions of void magic weapons, and a large amount of spiritual stones in reserve, now only this broken void monument that is almost destroyed is left.

It can only be said that the Mahayana Immortal is worthy of being the Mahayana Immortal, and the Holy Land of the Immortal Sect is worthy of being the Holy Land of the Immortal Sect.

This battle gave Xu Yang a clearer and more specific understanding of his own strength.

With the help of immortal mechas like Broken God of War and Bai Yujing, he can fight across borders and become invincible in the realm of returning to the void. Even the saint son of the Immortal Sect like Zhou Tianshu is no match for him in the returning realm.

Facing the combined body, cultivators from other sects, such as Jiang Laogui from Xuanyin Island, can also compete with each other and evenly win.

Even if he faced an orthodox sect, a powerful fusion from the Immortal Sect of the Holy Land, or even a supreme holy master like Xuanling Lord Zhong Yinzhi, he could still escape unscathed, at most he would have to pay a small price.

As for Mahayana...

The power of Mahayana is too terrifying, especially the Mahayana who comes from the Holy Land Immortal Sect, has many methods and amazing magical powers.

This time, if Juechenzi hadn't been concerned about his own foundation and failed to do his best, and didn't know his true identity, so he couldn't fully target him, then even if he overloaded the fairy mecha and destroyed hundreds of millions of magic weapons, it would be difficult for him to escape.

This is what the Immortal Sect Mahayana can do!

He is no match now, no match at all.

Not to mention the Mahayana, even the Holy Lord of the Immortal Sect can defeat him with their combined strength.

In this world, he has not yet developed to the state of "invincibility" and cannot act as recklessly as if he were wandering in a dream.

The damage to the Broken God of War was the price of this dangerous military expedition.

But the price is worth it, because it brings rewards and gains.

Xu Yang looked at the Shattered Void Monument in front of him, waved his sleeve and opened the ban.

Suddenly five colors of light illuminated a five-element spiritual pool and a withered ancient tree emerged from the monument and appeared in front of him.

Seeing this, Xu Yang did not take any further action, but put his hands behind his back and said coldly: "Come out."

"..."

To his words, the ancient tree fell silent without any response.

Xu Yang's expression remained unchanged and he shouted coldly: "Now that things have happened, do you still want to deceive yourself and others?"

After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed, using the pen as a dragon and a snake, and drew a talisman towards the withered ancient tree.

Suddenly...

Five colors of light rose up, dissolving the talisman, and condensed into a figure, appearing in front of Xu Yang's eyes.

I saw him wearing a crown of purple clouds, colorful neon robes, and holding a feather fan. He looked extraordinary, but his body felt slightly illusory, seeming real but not real, and fake but not fake.

Exactly...

"Feng Chaoyang, I have met fellow Taoist!"

"Feng Chaoyang?"

Xu Yang's expression remained unchanged: "Mr. Xu Ling?"

"Xu Ling is dead, and now there is only the rising sun in the world."

Feng Chaoyang sighed quietly, and then handed over his hand: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your kindness in rescuing me. I have nothing to repay, but I am willing to offer these Five Elements Immortal Roots with both hands. I only ask that my fellow Taoist, let this remnant soul go away."

Xu Yang was noncommittal about this and just said: "Did you deliberately let go of the Void Air Machine before so that I could find the location of your Void Spirit Cave?"

"good!"

Feng Chaoyang nodded: "My Taoist friend has overcome the tribulation before, refined the Five Elements Immortal Weapon, and built the White Jade Immortal City, which awakened my sleeping soul. At that time, I felt that my Taoist friend was extraordinary and a person who could be entrusted to me, but nothing happened. The soul is trapped in these Five Elements Immortal Roots and failed to show up to meet fellow Taoists before they broke through the boundary and left, which has now put fellow Taoists in danger..."

"No need to be pretentious!"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted. Xu Yang had his hands behind his back and coldly forced out his murderous intent: "If you have any means, just use it."

"..."

These words made Feng Chaoyang silent for a while, and finally showed a bitter smile: "Why is this, fellow Taoist?"

Xu Yang didn't say much, he raised his right hand, put his two fingers together with the sword, and drew the strokes like a dragon and a snake in the void, forming an extremely complicated talisman, heading straight towards Feng Chaoyang Town.

Seeing this, Feng Chaoyang could only sigh and murmured: "Why, why, why, why do you have to do this... force me!!!"

The last sound suddenly turned sharp, and Feng Chaoyang suddenly raised his head, revealing an extremely angry and ferocious face, completely different from his previous humble appearance, and his body turned into a colorful ray of light, which fiercely shone towards Xu Yang.

Xu Yang was not surprised by this.

Although Lord Xu Ling kept his attitude very low, not saying anything to his fellow Taoists, and even offered to offer the Five Elements Immortal Root in return for his rescue, but...

Xu Yang didn't believe his nonsense at all!

This is the world of cultivation, a world of cultivation where the weak eat the strong, not a world of Taoism and morality where cause and effect repay.

This Feng Chaoyang was even willing to betray his sect and deceive his master and destroy his ancestors for the sake of the Five Elements Immortal Root. Do you expect him to repay his kindness and use the Five Elements Immortal Root to repay the grace of saving his life?

Do not make jokes!

Xu Yang had no intention of wasting time on something whose reputation had been ruined and had no credibility at all. After asking for key information, he decisively eliminated the hidden dangers.

When Feng Chaoyang saw this, he decisively turned his back. His soul turned into a five-element divine light and shot straight towards Xu Yang. It actually passed through the void and was in front of him in an instant.

His understanding of Xu Yang was limited to the refining of treasures during the Heavenly Tribulation, the breaking of the immortal city, and the movement of the void thirty years ago.

He admitted that this person's means were extraordinary, even unbelievable and beyond imagination. He was able to survive the catastrophe of returning to the void in the form of a god, and even broke through the blockade and escaped from the hands of a Mahayana immortal like his master Jue Chenzi.

But no matter how amazing his methods are and how strong his strength is, there is an insurmountable weakness.

That is cultivation!

Thirty years ago, he survived the catastrophe and advanced to the state of becoming a god.

Even if he advances rapidly, if he makes any breakthrough in thirty years, he will only return to the realm of virtual reality.

This is his biggest weakness, his most fatal flaw!

Although his methods are amazing, they are all external things and cannot improve the fundamentals.

For a cultivator, what is fundamental?

Self is the soul.

Refining Qi to build the foundation, golden elixir and Yuanying, step by step, one state after another, the soul that has been reborn through hard training is the foundation of the immortal way.

This person is just a man who has returned to the realm of emptiness, and the Zifu Yuanshen has not been created yet. How can he defeat his combined and powerful innate soul?

Therefore, the soul enters the body and seizes the physical body!

By seizing this person's body, you can not only get a physical body and embark on the path of spiritual practice again, but you can also obtain all kinds of secrets in him, including the uncanny craftsmanship, the mysterious weapon refining method, and the world that you have painstakingly cultivated. The seed, the future path, must be...

"boom!!!"

After thinking for a moment, the soul passed through the body and came to a mountain wilderness.

"Um!?"

In the mountains and fields, there was an empty space. Feng Chaoyang's soul was condensed and his brows were furrowed.

Is this this person’s sea of ​​knowledge?

Why is there no trace of Yuanshen?

Could it be...

"hold head high!!!"

In the midst of surprise and doubt, he suddenly heard a loud roar that resounded through the sky.

"!!!!!!"

Feng Chaoyang's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly raised his head. Above the sky, he saw chaos in the wind and clouds, thunder and lightning, and an ancient green bull, pulling the sky across the sky, coming with its plow head.
