Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

Ninth-level immortal treasure.

Tenth-level immortal material.

Although there is a one-level difference, the difference between human immortals and earthly immortals, in this lower realm of the Northern Territory, the value of the two is almost the same, and the former is even higher than the latter in terms of practicality.

After all, ninth-level immortal treasures are finished products, while tenth-level immortal materials are unfinished materials.

The Northern Territory is a lower realm, where true immortals are not allowed to exist, and the development of various laws and arts is also limited. The highest level of pills, talismans, arrays and instruments is eighth-level, and there is no ninth-level immortal master at all.

Without a ninth-level immortal master, ninth-level artifacts cannot be refined. The only output of immortal treasures is the caves of predecessors and ancient ruins. In this way, the value can be imagined, and it is absolutely rare.

As for the tenth-level immortal material, although the output is limited, as a material, the level is too high. In this lower realm of the Northern Territory, no one can refine the material into treasure.

It cannot be processed after birth, and can only be used directly to exert the most basic innate effect, so the value is naturally greatly reduced.

Therefore, for ordinary people, the value of three ninth-level fairy treasures is obviously higher than seven tenth-level fairy materials.

But Xu Yang has always been unconventional, and now he is going against the grain. In his eyes, the value of three ninth-level fairy treasures is far less than that of seven tenth-level fairy materials.

After all, he is a weapon refiner, a weapon refiner who has been promoted to the eighth level.

If he continues to develop in this way, he will definitely have the hope of advancing to the ninth level before becoming a true fairy.

With weapon refinement skills, advancing to the ninth level, and combining skill characteristics, with these materials, refining a few fairy treasures is not easy, but it is almost certain.

After all, tenth-level fairy materials are the things of earthly immortals, and the method of refining is the king, the minister, the assistant, and the envoy. As long as these tenth-level fairy materials are the main trunk, and some ninth-level spiritual objects are combined, it is more than enough to refine a few treasures of human immortals.

This kind of fairy treasure is not only brand new, but also refined by the weapon master himself, which is in line with his heart and tacitly in harmony with himself.

In this case, isn't it better than the withered flowers and willows left behind in the cave and buried in the tomb?

In Xu Yang's plan, whether it is Xiaohuang or Tianhui, or the Earth Spirit Pearl that is connected to the Earth Book, they can only be used for transition.

In the future, when the refining skills are improved, it is necessary to refine the immortal treasures that suit oneself by hand, especially the heavy tools such as Jiuyi Xuanyuan and Five Elements Immortal Flag that can be used as life objects. They must be refined by oneself to ensure that there are no hidden dangers, no omissions, and they can be used without worries.

...

After deciding the ownership of the immortal treasures, Xu Yang turned his attention to the practice.

The True Secret of the Nine Heavens Thunder God Sword!

This is the fundamental practice of the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion. Like the Five Elements Immortal Secret obtained from Xu Ling Jun Feng Chaoyang before, they are all methods that directly point to the immortals. Unfortunately, the inheritance is incomplete, only the human immortal part.

There is no doubt that this is the restriction of the "Upper Realm Ancestor" on the lower realm Taoism.

Although there is only the human immortal part, Xu Yang does not dislike it and still reads it with relish.

He was not short of such things as cultivation methods. Not to mention the immortal inheritance of Tongtian Secret Realm, even the Nine Heavens Mysterious Scripture obtained in the Blue Star World was enough for him to cultivate to the realm of True Immortal or even Earthly Immortal.

But the accumulation of foundation is never too much. One can learn from others. The Nine Heavens Thunder God Sword True Art is also a Heavenly Sword Cultivation Method, which is similar to the Xuanyuan Divine Sword Art and the Nine Instruments Heavenly Venerable Law. Xu Yang will verify each other, and at the same time add a method to the Wandao Academy and a commodity to the Lingbao Conference.

Immortal treasures and immortal materials, cultivation methods and secrets, as well as some rare treasures obtained from immortal caves and ancient ruins, as well as the elixir talismans, spiritual stones and jade, array plates and array flags accumulated by the Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion for hundreds of thousands of years, this time the harvest is almost enough.

Needless to say, all these things will be put into the Wandao Treasury as development capital to enhance the strength of the academy.

"Next..."

Xu Yang murmured, looking up and looking into the distance, with a playful look.

…

A few days later, a battle in the South China Sea shocked the world.

The true immortals died, the Sword Pavilion was destroyed, and the situation in the northern region changed dramatically.

In response, the three religious traditions and the ten holy places were silent and did not respond at all.

The Wandao Academy ignored it and just took over the foundation of the Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion until a few months later.

"Taixuan Dao Yue Xuanjizi, meet the Xuanyuan Sword Master!"

"Haoyu Tianmen Chen Xizhen, meet the Xuanyuan Sword Master!"

"Five Elements Immortal Sect Zhong Yingquan..."

"Beidou Immortal Sect Zhou Tianyu..."

"Da Ri Immortal Sect Shen Tuqing..."

"Bodhi Dajue Temple..."

"Wuliangguang Buddha Sect..."

The former Wanren Lonely Peak is now the Wuji Central Palace. In the hall, everyone bowed and performed great rituals.

"No need to be polite!"

Xu Yangxu raised his hand and invited the nine robbery immortals in front of him.

The nine robbery immortals and the nine holy places finally came to visit him after he took over the foundation of the Sword Pavilion.

The nine Tribulation Immortals, all at the fifth or sixth level, were powerful Tribulation Realm warriors. Even among the Saint Land Immortal Sect, they were extraordinary figures. However, they did not dare to be negligent at this moment. They bowed with great ceremony and were meticulous, clearly distinguishing between the superior and the inferior.

Tribulation Immortals and True Immortals, although all in the ninth level, were still as far apart as heaven and earth, and naturally they had to be distinguished between the superior and the inferior.

As for whether Xu Yang was a True Immortal... if he could kill Qi Zhengming, he was either a True Immortal or a True Immortal.

Therefore, the nine people had a very upright attitude.

Seeing the nine people in such a posture, Xu Yang also got straight to the point: "Why are you here?"

"I came here to apologize for my crime!"

The Taoist, Xuanjizi, who was dressed as a fairy, spoke first: "I am Taixuan Daoyue. For the friendship of fellow practitioners, I was temporarily bewildered and accepted the appointment of the Sword Pavilion. I was embarrassed by the Yuexue Palace. This time I came to apologize for my crime. I hope the Sword Master will punish me!"

After saying that, he knelt on the ground, completely ignoring his own status as a powerful person in the Tribulation Realm, and knelt directly in front of Xu Yang.

"..."

"..."

"..."

This gesture caused everyone to be silent for a while, and then they all moved together and knelt on the ground together.

"Please punish the sword master!!!"

The nine immortals knelt down and apologized. If this scene were to be seen in the outside world, I don't know how many people's jaws would be shocked.

A powerful person in the Tribulation Realm, an immortal and a god, actually bows down to others?

What about the integrity of the Tribulation Realm Immortal God?

Where is the character of Xianmen Holy Land?

"You don't have to be like this."

Xu Yang shook his head and said quietly: "Li Mou has always been clear about grudges and grievances in his life. I will not offend others unless they offend me, let alone criticize their crimes. The affairs of Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion are the affairs of Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion!"

After saying that, he helped everyone up with his empty hand.

Such words and gestures made Xuan Jizi and the other nine Tribulation Immortals feel relieved.

As immortal gods and powerful people in the Tribulation Realm, if they had other choices, how could they surrender to others?

There is really no way.

Qi Zhengming's tragic situation is like a nightmare. It is still vivid in my mind and makes people feel frightened.

Even the true immortals were invincible and died miserably, let alone these calamity immortals.

Coupled with this man's fierce and resolute actions, he killed Qi Zhengming with his front foot, and then went to Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion to destroy his sect and cut off his incense, making this holy land of immortals that has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years become history.

The decisiveness of his actions and the ruthlessness of his methods are completely in line with his "sword cultivator" nature!

As allies of Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion, if they who went to the South China Sea that day did not want to follow in the footsteps of Qi Zhengming and Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion, they would have no choice but to condescend and plead guilty.

After all, this person is unusual. He is not from the Holy Land and is not subject to the checks and balances of the upper world. From the destruction of Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion, it can be seen that the ancestors of various sects have limited deterrence against him. If he does not want to be like Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion, then he can only bow his head. .

Fortunately, although this person is unscrupulous and the Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion will be destroyed at any time, but based on current performance, he has no intention of swallowing up the Northern Territory, so there is still some room for maneuver in this matter, at least it can be delayed for a while.

"I already know your purpose of coming."

Xu Yang looked calm and spoke softly: "As I said before, Li has always been clear about grudges and grievances. I will not offend others unless they offend me. Wandao Academy is even more upright and upright. As long as you don't cross the thunder pool, this Northern Territory It’s so big that it has a place to stay and can accommodate all kinds of cultivation!”

"..."

"..."

"..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent again. In the end, Xuan Jizi was the first to respond.

"The sword master is so generous, I feel ashamed for waiting. Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion is very domineering. Now it is destroyed by it. It is also the cycle of nature. In the future, the Northern Territory cultivation world will follow the lead of Wan Dao Academy and achieve a prosperous era of great harmony!"

Regarding his words, Xu Yang did not comment and just smiled: "My Taoist friend Xuanji said something serious."

…

After a while, everyone left, leaving Xu Yang alone in the palace with a rather amused expression.

In the Central Plains of the Northern Territory, the Immortal Sect of the Holy Land, ten sects stand side by side, and this pattern has been maintained for nearly a million years.

Even if a genius is born, becomes a true immortal, and defeats ten sects, he cannot change this pattern and unify the Northern Territory.

There are two reasons for this, one is the balance of strength, and the other is the containment of the upper realm.

Needless to say about the former, the ten holy places have a long history and profound foundation. Although there are differences in strength, they are not huge. Even the Nine Tribulations True Immortals cannot forcefully annex them, otherwise they will all be destroyed, and the gain will not be worth the loss.

The latter is even simpler. All the ten holy places have their ancestors, who are the true immortals of the upper realm, and even the lords of the earthly and heavenly immortals. The lower realm's orthodoxy shoulders the heavy responsibility of continuously delivering talents and resources to the upper realm.

In this way, how could the patriarch of the upper realm allow the lower realm to be destroyed?

You are a true immortal and you are powerful. If you have the ability to destroy my orthodoxy in the lower realm, you'd better have the ability to fight with me in the upper realm.

Unless there is a big change in the upper world and the ancestors of each sect fall, the cultivation world in the Northern Territory will always have a pattern of ten sects standing side by side.

The balance established by the upper realm for the lower realm, the rules established by heaven and earth immortals, are not something that a little fairy has the courage to break.

Therefore, even if there are talented people in the Ten Holy Lands and the Nine Tribulations come true, their sects can only be prosperous for a while. They can suppress all parties to a limited extent before ascending and dominate for tens of thousands of years. Then they will return to normal. It is simply impossible to destroy the mountains, cut down the temples, cut off the incense inheritance, and unify the cultivation world in the Northern Territory.

But now Xu Yang has broken this rule. It is not enough to kill Qi Zhengming, the true immortal. He also seizes Jiuxiao's foundation and cuts off the inheritance of Jiange, making it the first immortal sect to be exterminated in hundreds of thousands of years.

There is no doubt that he has formed a deadly feud with the Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion. In the future, when he ascends to the upper world, he will have to face the pursuit of the founder of the Sword Pavilion.

The major holy places don't know how he has the courage to risk the disapproval of the world. Doesn't he plan to ascend in the future?

He couldn't figure it out, but he had done it anyway.

The major holy places couldn't afford to offend a ruthless character who could kill real immortals and ignored the threats from the upper world, so they could only come to sue for peace. They even planned to cut off his flesh and make profits, holding their noses and recognizing him as the Lord of the Northern Territory.

But Xu Yang did not take advantage of the situation. After all, the "Lord of the Northern Territory" obtained in this way was just a false name. If he was not strong enough, it would be meaningless.

Now with the Nine Instruments Formation, he is invincible in the Northern Territory, but one person cannot rule an entire realm.

Thousand years in this world are too short. Even if the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion is captured, the strength of the Wandao Academy cannot reach the point where it can engulf the Northern Territory and be the only one who dominates.

It still takes time and development to completely transform the foundation of Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion into the strength of Wandao Academy, and then we can plot the entire Northern Territory.

Before this, Xu Yang did not intend to directly conflict with the major holy places. After all, the holy places have a deep foundation of immortals. Even if there is no Nine Tribulations True Immortal like Qi Zhengming, there are still a few Seven Tribulations and Eight Tribulations.

One's own family knows one's own business. The Nine Instruments Formation is not easy to move. If a group of Tribulation Realm masters are determined to fight guerrilla warfare with him, then he has no way to deal with it. I am afraid that he will be exhausted.

Therefore, it is not appropriate to swallow up the Northern Territory for the time being. It must develop for a period of time to improve the strength of the Wandao Academy.

By then... it is not necessary to conquer by force!

Xu Yang is a peace-loving person. As long as they do not hinder their development, it is not difficult for the vast Northern Territory to accommodate several sects.

In the world of Taoism, when the Wandao Academy was first established, it also allowed the three sects of Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism to exist independently under the jurisdiction of the academy. After thousands of years, it was not until the passage of time and the development of the times that they were subtly integrated into the Wandao Academy.

There is no way. If you don't join the Wandao Academy, you can't recruit people. How can the Taoism continue?

This is true in the world of Taoism, and it is also true in the real world. It is not necessary to use force to solve problems.

Of course, we can also not give up using force to solve problems.

In any case, the unification of the Northern Territory and the rule of the academy are inevitable results.

As for the problems in the upper world...

Xu Yang has also done research. The trend of "underworld cultivation" is prevalent in this world. The lower world is like this, and the upper world is also like this. To be precise, the upper world is like this.

After all, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked!

So, it is the same whether you make enemies or not. Do you think that if you don't fight or kill and be a good person, you can live in peace and no one will bother you by ascending to the upper world?

Don't be kidding.

As long as you are a cultivator in the lower world, you will be "tortured by society" after ascending to the upper world. Not to mention being a slave, mining coal and mining, it is inevitable to be forced to be a high-level thug.

This can be referred to the earthly immortal world. Without the care of the ancestors, the lower world cultivators who ascended to the upper world basically have to join the army and become a member of the heavenly soldiers to fight against demons.

If the Earthly Immortal Realm is like this, then the True Immortal Realm in the present world...

Is he really going to be captured and taken to mining?

To avoid this situation, he can only join the major holy places and ascend to the upper realm with "status".

Although Xu Yang can go this way, he doesn't have that idea. After all, ascending with "status" is not much better. He will still be exploited by the ancestors of the upper realm. It is better to be self-reliant.

So, what upper realm ancestor, if you offend him, you offend him. The North Territory must be taken down no matter what. As long as you are strong enough, after ascending, who will cause trouble to whom is still uncertain.

In addition, there is still a lot of room for operation in the matter of ascending.

After all, the North Territory is the lower realm, but the lower realm is not just the North Territory!

Prepare to open a new plot, let me sort it out carefully
