Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

There will be times when the wind blows and the waves break, so hang up your sails and sail across the sea!

Half a month later, in Canglang Ruins, on top of the huge sea-exploring warship, Ning Que stood alone, with melancholy between his brows and even more hesitation in his eyes.

The sky is unpredictable, and people are prone to misfortunes and blessings. The world is so unpredictable, but Ning Que didn't expect it to be so unpredictable that he became the legacy of Jiange overnight.

Yes, the legacy of Jiange!

The Immortal Sect of the Holy Land always has a backup plan to ensure that in times of disaster, the incense will continue to be passed down.

The branching saphenous vein is one of them.

He is not only a descendant of Jiange, but also a descendant of the Xiao family, sharing the same bloodline as the Xiao family that led to the destruction of Jiange.

A few years ago, when the Jiange collapsed, the important treasure "Hidden Sky Mirror" was activated, and messages were sent to various hidden veins, activating the final back-up plan.

As one of the back-up men, he thus became a descendant of Jiange, a member of the Xiao clan, and could not help but embark on a life of escape.

To be honest, if he had a choice, he really didn't want to bear this bloodline and be involved with the "No. 1 Immortal in the Northern Territory".

But he had no choice. After the destruction of Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion, Wandao Academy did not give up. It was still searching for the relics of the Sword Pavilion in the Northern Territory, and branched out to the Hidden Sect, with a posture of killing everyone and never ending.

The bloodline was implicated and could not be removed. The Wandao Academy's approach gave him no choice but to follow the trend and rely on the sect's arrangement to protect himself.

Although there are rumors from outside, Wandao Academy did not kill the captured Jiange disciples, and even the Xiao family was not wiped out. They were just prisoners under the orders and had to perform various labors. However, as a human being, their lives Freedom is precious, and no matter what, he doesn't want to suffer the unreasonable disaster of prison.

So, he came here.

According to the sect's arrangement, the person behind the family who can destroy Jiange must be a supreme true immortal or even a being above the true immortal.

Such people will definitely dominate the world after the sword pavilion is destroyed. These branches of the hidden lineage will either pretend to submit and be dormant, or they will avoid their sharp edges and leave their hometowns.

Needless to say about the former, just keep it hidden and stay dormant.

The focus of the latter lies in the endless sea!

Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion has a long heritage and has a foundation. It is an endless sea map, which records the routes of the five regions of the world. As long as you follow the map to find the route, you can escape from the Northern Region and seek development. In the future, you can make a comeback, continue the incense of the Sword Pavilion, and even invite the descendants and superiors. The founder of the world moved in with reinforcements to regain the foundation.

But Ning Que didn't have this idea. Instead, he preferred the first choice and lived his life peacefully. After all, the pressure of the "No. 1 Immortal in the Northern Territory" was too heavy and he really couldn't afford to challenge him. Heart.

In addition, according to the "Hidden Heaven Realm", these hidden veins of their branches have been buried as hidden objects for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years. During this period, communication has been cut off, and there are no traces to be found.

Although the master of the Xuanyuan Sword can be called an immortal figure because of his mastery of heavenly secrets, it is impossible for him to ask questions about the past hundreds of thousands of years in the future. That is something that even the earthly and heavenly beings cannot do.

In addition, the Hidden Sky Mirror has been destroyed. Except for a few victims on the bright side, there is almost no possibility of other secrets being dug out. They can completely tolerate it and lie dormant, plotting opportunities for future generations, so why take risks and fight to the death?

What is going to other areas and making a comeback? To put it simply, the endless sea map is something that I don’t know when. Who can guarantee that those routes are still passable? If you don’t make a mistake, you may be buried in the belly of the fish.

so……

He's still here!

There is no way, people always have luck, and a trace of unwillingness makes him come here by accident, thinking of leaving a way out for himself.

But after arriving, he became even more confused.

"The Xuanwu Battleship of Mingyue Pavilion is a sixth-level sea-exploring battleship. It is built with the middle-grade immortal weapon Beigong Xuanwu Pearl as the core and billions of magic weapons. Its power is far superior to the Guiling Battleship of Guiling Island. Every time it goes to sea, There will always be a Mahayana Immortal stationed there. This time, three immortals are moving together. The old lady of Mingyue Pavilion, the ancestor of Bingji Palace, and the ancestor of Fire Crow Mountain are all on the move. It is said that they will go deep into the outer sea to explore a new route... …”

"The old lady of Mingyue Pavilion, the ancestor of Bingji Palace, and the ancestor of Fire Crow Mountain are all side Mahayana disciples. At the Lingbao Conference, they used their blood to capture the Nine Heavens Mysterious Sutra, which can be used to refine the immortal body and replace the foundation of Mahayana. I have the hope of achieving immortality in the Tribulation Realm, so I have been working hard for this for these years, seeking spiritual resources.”

"The three Mahayana's joined forces, plus the resources of Mingyue Pavilion, Bingji Palace, and Fire Crow Mountain, and worked hard for several years to purchase this Xuanwu battleship. I heard that some favors were also used. Look at the Mingyue Fairy and Xuanyuan Sword Master back then. A lot of discounts were made for the sake of friendship.”

“We won’t be able to take the big part of the new route, but if we discover any secret realms or new spiritual islands, then we can hope to make a fortune.”

"With the size of this Xuanwu battleship, as long as we don't encounter those ancient sea beasts and dangerous secret places that are comparable to immortals, there is almost no possibility of anything happening."

"..."

There were a lot of monks on the boat, and the voices of discussion kept coming and going, which made Ning Que even more anxious.

The Xuanyuan Sword Master had the general trend of the world at his fingertips. With an order to open the sea, countless monks were forced to sacrifice their lives and follow him one after another. He also relied on this to gain profits. Although the investment was huge, the rewards were even more astonishing. .

This method alone can widen the gap and make people despair, not to mention the power of the true immortal and the foundation of the academy.

How can they, the legacy of Jiange, compete with them?

Make a comeback and regain the foundation...

"Master Ning?"

His confused thoughts were interrupted by a voice.

Ning Que woke up with a start and looked around, only to see a person walking forward. He was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. His appearance was not shocking, but his eyesight was sharp, he was worldly, and he was very well-educated. He was in Guixufang Market half a month ago. The boy who served him as a consultant—Han Li!

"It turns out to be Brother Han."

Ning Que's eyes narrowed, then returned to normal, and said with a chuckle: "Why are you also on this boat?"

Half a month ago, Han Li took him to visit Guixufang Market. The two exchanged names as soon as they met, and they could barely be considered friends.

Han Li laughed and said, "Isn't this the Mingyue Fleet is going to open a new route? I'm going to come here to try my luck and see if I can sell some precious sea goods back and earn some more spiritual stones."

Ning Que shook his head and sighed: "My heart for the Tao is inferior to mine!"

"There's nothing I can do about it."

Han Li smiled bitterly: "Spiritual roots are mixed, and cultivation is too difficult. Without the assistance of spiritual stones and elixirs, the most I can do in my life is to build foundations. If I want to form elixirs, I will have to work hard."

After saying that, he turned his eyes and looked overseas: "In fact, building the foundation is not bad. If there is no academy to pass on the law and the two Tao and martial arts scriptures are published, then I am afraid that I will have to practice Qi all my life with my miscellaneous spiritual roots. In the mid-term, I will be a spiritual farmer or fisherman on an island and spend my life peacefully..."

"Brother Han is joking."

Ning Que shook his head: "It's just miscellaneous spiritual roots, what does it matter? With Brother Han's heart towards the Tao and his perseverance, he will definitely become the Tao in the future. Not to mention forming pills, it is the Nascent Soul's transformation into a spirit, which is the combination of returning to the void It’s possible.”

"Thank you, Brother Ning, for your kind words!"

Han Li also smiled when he heard this, and turned to look around: "Recently, more and more monks have boarded ships to explore the sea. Not only the South China Sea, but also the wilderness and the northern areas, there are a large number of monks coming to explore the sea. Competition is getting fiercer.”

"This is how it is in a time of great strife!"

Ning Que sighed, looked at Han Li again, glanced up and down, and when he saw the nine bags hanging high, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "Brother Han, your storage bag, let alone the foundation-building monk, is probably not as good as the golden elixir." ”

"Eating for a living!"

Han Li smiled and did not shy away from it: "This time Mingyue Pavilion goes to sea, although there are plans to open up a new route, it must be done step by step. Therefore, we will pass many secret realms and spiritual islands along the way. I am going to buy and sell a wave of products from each secret realm. The spiritual objects and the special products of each island are all good things for earning spiritual stones. Brother Ning, how about you and me?"

"Hahaha, you kid, you really know how to do business!"

As soon as Han Li finished speaking, he heard a sarcastic laugh.

The two of them were startled, and looked around, only to see an old man wearing a raincoat, sitting on the side of the boat with a fishing rod, looking at them with a playful expression.

Han Li's eyes narrowed, and then he spoke carefully and asked carefully: "This senior is..."

"I'm just a fisherman from the South China Sea. I can't be your senior."

The old man shook his head, lifted the fishing rod in his hand, and saw a fish pulled out of the water and landed in front of Han Li: "You are so good at doing business, then take a look at this fish." How much is it worth? If you tell me correctly, I will give it to you for free."

"This is……"

Han Li's eyes narrowed, he looked at the small fish, and then said: "This is the Eight Treasure Fish, a unique fish in the Endless Sea. It is basically only seen in the outer sea. It is said that it has the blood of ancient sea beasts, and its meat is as good as the Eight Treasure Fish." It’s very effective, the food is of great benefit, and the market price should be between 3,000 and 4,000 spirit stones.”

"Yes, yes, this fish is yours."

The old man nodded, chuckled and said, "I'll give you another question. You said that this eight treasure fish has the blood of an ancient sea beast. Do you know the origin of this ancient sea beast?"

"this……"

Han Li hesitated for a while, then shook his head: "Although I have heard about this ancient sea beast, I only heard about it. I don't know the details. I wonder if I can ask my senior for advice."

"Hahaha!"

The old man smiled and became even more cheerful: "This ancient sea beast is also called a wild giant beast. It is a species of the ancient wild beast. It is not like the demon clan. It does not have psychic powers and wisdom. It has only animal instincts. It is huge in size and has amazing fighting power. It is even more powerful. With innate spells and natal magical powers, ordinary monks are no match."

"These ancient sea beasts, as well as the strange fish generated by their blood, are the unique treasures of the Endless Sea. Wandao Academy has been buying them at high prices, and they seem to have the intention to cultivate them. If your boy has the ability to make achievements in this area, then others will not dare to It’s more than enough to transform the Nascent Soul into a god.”

"I have a beast-controlling technique here, which is specially designed to cultivate this kind of strange fish. Today, I see that you have fallen in love with me, and I have sold you a thousand middle-grade spiritual stones."

After saying that, he threw out a sparkling fish scale.

"..."

"..."

Seeing this, both of them were silent.

"Why, do you think I'm cheating on you?"

The reaction of the two people made the old man blow his beard directly: "This is an exclusive secret technique that I have worked hard for thousands of years to develop."

"Thank you for your kindness, senior!"

When Han Li saw this, he simply said: "It's just that this junior is short of money, and a thousand middle-grade spiritual stones are really..."

"You deserve to be poor!"

The old man rolled his eyes at him, put away the jade scales with his backhand, and took the eight treasure fish back with him. Ning Que and Han Li were speechless again.

The old man ignored it, turned his eyes, glanced outside the boat, and said to the two of them: "Do you know the origin of this endless sea?"

"this……"

The two looked at each other with surprise and suspicion.

The old man didn't care and continued: "If you don't know the endless sea, can you know the five regions of the world?"

"this……"

Han Li shook his head, with curiosity in his eyes: "Senior, do you know the secret?"

"It's not a secret, it's just that you are not at a high enough level to get in touch with it."

The old man smiled: "But I am in a good mood today, so I will tell you a story."

Han Li's eyes condensed, he took out a wine jar, and offered it with both hands: "Please moisten your mouth!"

"Hahaha, you kid, you are really tactful!"

The old man laughed heartily, took the jar, and without looking at it, he filled it up directly: "It's the Chunfeng Brew from Zuixianju, not bad!"

After that, he looked at the two of them and started to narrate again.

"Long ago, in the ancient times, there was no division of the five domains in the world. There was only one piece of iron plate, called Shenzhou."

"In the ancient times, there were billions of creatures on the earth, and there were truly thousands of races. There were countless powerful people, immortals and Buddhas, demons and ghosts, walking in the world, people and gods lived together, and demons and monsters coexisted."

"It is said that at that time, there were not only true immortals in the world, but also powerful people above true immortals. The upper and lower realms could communicate with each other without restrictions. It was a real prosperous era for cultivation."

"But one day, for some reason, a meteorite fell from the upper realm. Since it came down from the nine heavens and pierced the ancient earth core, Shenzhou sank, the earth was torn apart, and the water from the outer sea poured in, gradually evolving into the current situation of Shenzhou being separated and the five domains coexisting."

The old man looked at him leisurely, and muttered: "This is the origin of the Endless Sea and the five domains of the world."

"This..."

Ning Que and Han Li looked at each other, both a little surprised.

Shenzhou, ancient times, falling stars from the sky, shattered into pieces?

This endless sea has such an origin?

Could it be that this old man is making it up?

Seeing the two people's doubtful expressions, the old man smiled and said something shocking: "You two boys, do you know why the Wandao Academy is spending so much money to vigorously promote this sea opening?"

"This..."

The two were puzzled and found it difficult to answer.

"Hahaha!"

The old man smiled: "It's because they intend to connect the Central Region!"

"Central Region?"

"Yes, Central Region!"

The old man nodded: "When Shenzhou was torn apart, the Central Region, as the heart of Shenzhou, was the most prosperous place among the five regions. There were ancient survivors and all the races of Shenzhou, and it was not limited by heaven and earth. There were true immortals living in the world, and the Yuanling Qi was extremely abundant. It was second only to the upper realm of true immortals."

"Is there such a thing?"

Ning Que's eyes condensed, and he continued: "Wandao Academy wants to connect with the Central Region, seek development, and go further?"

"Seek development?"

The old man glanced at him, and then He chuckled: "Yes and no, in my opinion, their main purpose is to pave the way for the future. After all, the Xuanyuan Sword Master destroyed the Jiuxiao Sword Pavilion, and he may unify the Northern Territory in the future. The upper masters of the ten holy places are probably gritting their teeth at him."

"So, when he succeeds in the future, he must not ascend from the Northern Territory. He can only seek a turnaround in the Central Territory, or ascend to the other three realms, so as not to be blocked and killed by the masters of the ten holy places."

The old man smiled jokingly: "This is related to life and property, so we must vigorously promote it."

"..."

"..."

Such joking words made the two silent.

This old man, dare to tease Wandao Academy like this?

Even if it is true, you can't say it!

Old man, you are not a traitor, right?

The two of them looked nervous, but the old man still looked carefree: "Don't worry, he is the first immortal in the Northern Territory, how could he bother with an old man like me? If he only had this tolerance, the Wandao Academy would not be able to grow to this extent. The law does not punish the heart, and the words do not punish the crime. As long as you don't point at his nose and scold him, the Wandao Lord will not care about those jokes..."

"Boom!"

Before he finished speaking, he was hit by a huge earthquake. The Xuanwu warship rumbled, and countless talismans and seal characters shone brightly.

"This..."

"Not good!"

"It's an ancient sea beast!"
