I’ll Quit Being a God

"And her broken body, which had been drained of divine blood and life essence, will remain here forever, turning into the current Falling Dragon Mountain Range and becoming a monument to the powerful enemies from outside the world for their contempt for the Heavenly and Wilderness World and their outstanding military exploits. .”

"But now, except for the survivors like me who have lived through the ancient times, most of the creatures in the world don't even know her name, and their deaths can be said to be worthless."

When Zhulong said this, he looked at the misty Dragon Falling Mountain Range in front of him.

Tens of consecutive days of rain have caused a thick mist to form in the mountains, making it dense and psychedelic.

When the ancient candle dragon with a sinister expression looked at the misty clouds, what reflected in his eyes was deep-seated hatred.

Lu Heng and Jiu Mie were silent for a long time, looking at Zhulong like this, speechless for a long time.

Finally Jiu Mie asked: "But since the ancient dragon clan was completely wiped out, why are there still dragons in the world today? And every time the earthly catastrophe happens, the enemies outside the world will harvest the creatures in the wild world, but after the earthly catastrophe However, the world of the wild world can be full of living creatures...could it be that every time the world is destroyed, these enemies from outside the world will deliberately leave some living creatures to continue the race?"

Jiu Mie's question was also Lu Heng's question.

If every once in a while, there are creatures outside the world that are killing people, how can the world of heaven and earth be able to have a steady stream of creatures being born? Could it be that he was trapped by enemies from outside?

Jiu Mie's inquiry made Zhulong exhale a long breath.

He said: "Of course the powerful enemies outside the world will not be so kind. Every time they harvest and destroy the world, they will never be merciful. They will rummage through the entire world over and over again, killing every living creature, not even a single fiber. Not even a blade of grass or a mosquito will be spared.”

"It's just that the Jiuding refined by King Yu has already imprinted the endless creatures of the Tianhuang Realm on the Jiuding. Even if the world is destroyed and the Tianhuang Realm turns into a dead place, as long as the Jiuding is not destroyed, the creatures of the Tianhuang Realm will be reunited. appeared in the world, and gradually prospered in heaven and earth.”

"For this reason, the enemies outside the world tried their best to destroy the Jiuding, but they could not destroy it at all. They even re-refined the Jiuding and made it into an evil magic weapon for harvesting living beings, but they still could not prevent the annihilation of all living beings. Later, living creatures appeared again in the ruins of the dead land in the Tianhuang Realm.”

"So they can only come to kill the living beings over and over again, cause catastrophes in the world over and over again, and hunt down and hunt the monks in the Tianhuang Realm over and over again."

"They are afraid that another Emperor Fuxi will appear in the Tianhuang Realm, and they are even more afraid that Emperor Fuxi will leave behind some terrible back-up plan after his death, which will affect them in the future."

"After all, the strange sea of ​​flowers in the Immortal Kingdom in the South China Sea is an open secret. There are not many people in the world who know about it, and so are the enemies outside the world."

"It's just that they can't destroy the sea of ​​flowers, and they don't even know what's going on inside. From ancient times to the present, no one has ever been able to come out alive from that mysterious sea of ​​flowers. Everyone who entered died."

"Even the ancient resentful spirit that crawled out of it and the leader of the Immortal Kingdom, Luo Yujun, who was born in it, can only enter the outer area inside at a specific time, let alone the group of enemies outside the boundary."

When Zhulong said this, he smiled coldly and said: "The sea of ​​flowers will not be extinguished, and the enemies outside the world will always be on tenterhooks."

After a pause, Zhulong said again: "And Nian Cangqing, the immortal of martial arts and the ancestor of all kings, was killed and harvested many times by outsiders after the emperor died, the king of gods disappeared, and all living beings were already in panic. In this era of confusion and despair, where there is no longer any ambition, the ancient sage stood up alone and carried the banner of resistance."

"She is extremely talented and has good cultivation, far beyond ordinary monks. In the dark and desperate times, she single-handedly established the Human King Palace to protect all living beings in the world, maintain the most basic order in the world, and kill those who try to spread outside the world. A cultivator from the Tianhuang Realm who surrendered to the enemy."

"Under her rule, the Human King Palace has stabilized the chaos of the entire world, supported the righteous path, suppressed evil spirits, allowed all living beings to prosper, and allowed talented practitioners to practice in a stable world of order."

"Although she mysteriously disappeared later, the secret technique she left behind has been passed down to the Royal Palace forever, and it has survived the catastrophes of the world without being destroyed."

"And the [Life Expansion Technique] she created has preserved the power of the top monks in the Tianhuang Realm to the greatest extent, allowing many powerful practitioners to survive and accumulate strength for the future."

Chapter 415 Discussing Tao (4)

"Oh? The art of deriving life?" Lu Heng asked slightly confused: "May I ask my friend, what is the art of deriving life?"

Zhulong sighed and said: "The so-called life-extraction technique is a special secret method that calculates today's life and creates tomorrow's body."

"This technique has been practiced by all practitioners in ancient times."

"The Life-Expanding Technique does not increase one's cultivation level and is not complicated. Even ordinary people who are new to the practice can learn it quickly. However, only innate practitioners have enough divine power to activate the Life-Evolving Technique."

"After the Life Expansion Technique is activated, the practitioner's cultivation, flesh and blood, and soul will be sealed into nothingness, and will no longer exist in the world, which is equivalent to death."

"But after the catastrophe of the world is over, when all beings in heaven and earth appear again on the vast land, the practitioners who have activated the life-exerting technique will be reborn on the earth, but they will have no cultivation base and will have to start from scratch."

"But the physical soul and the body's cultivation that he sealed in nothingness have not disappeared, but can be used at critical moments. Once the practitioner lets go of the restrictions, all the accumulated cultivation will be gathered into one body, allowing The practitioner's cultivation level skyrockets instantly."

"It's just that after this, this practitioner can no longer use the life-derivating technique."

"So unless you are in a desperate situation, you will never activate the Life Expansion Technique."

"Since Nian Cangqing invented this method, most of the ancient monks have practiced the art of deriving life. Every time we experience a catastrophe in the world, we will 'die' and wait until we are reborn in a new world."

"We have been accumulating for a long time, just waiting for the final opportunity to counterattack."

As Zhulong said this, he smoothly told Lu Heng Jiu Mie the formula for the life-extracting technique.

And the formula for this secret technique is indeed as simple as she said, and any rookie who has just entered the spiritual world can learn it. It's just that the divine power to activate this technique is not something ordinary people can afford.

After Zhulong imparted the formula, he warned again, saying: "Two friends, please remember that this life-extracting technique cannot be used until the last moment. And once it is activated, it is equivalent to death until the end of the next earthly catastrophe. , there is no trace of your existence in this world, the timing of activation must be very careful."

"And if the main body is killed and destroyed by others, then all the cultivation skills sealed in the void will also dissipate and no longer exist."

Zhulong worriedly warned about the realization of the doctrine, while Lu Heng and Jiu Mie wrote it down carefully.

After chatting for a while about the life-changing surgery, Lu Heng sighed: "Nian Cangqing in ancient times is really admirable. She is worthy of the name of an ancient sage. It's a pity that she has become like this, but it's amazing. I have a terrible headache.”

Zhulong thought about the Nian Cangqing that Lu Heng and the others were talking about, and couldn't help but feel a headache, and said: "No one could have imagined that the martial arts immortal would become like this... Sigh... But at least he is still alive. As long as he is alive, he will That’s a good thing.”

Lu Heng sighed and said: "Let's talk about the Jiuding next... To be honest with my two friends, I have two World-Destroying Jiuding here."

"One of the Qingzhou Cauldrons was given by a friend of Jiu Mie, and the other Yuzhou Cauldron came from the hands of an ancient being."

As he spoke, Lu Heng waved his sleeves lightly, threw out two palm-sized bronze cauldrons, and said, "The ancient being holding the Yuzhou cauldron is named Lord Qiyu, and his name is somewhat similar to Lord Luo Yu from the Immortal Kingdom, but this The Lord of Seven Desires is not a creature from the world of heaven and earth."

"He was sealed in the ancient city of Zhuxian. He was sealed by the incomplete Nine Swords of Tianji and the order of the king. He was holding the Yuzhou Ding, but he was seriously injured and eventually died under the Heavenly Tribulation Sword. His I have temporarily stored the Yuzhou Cauldron."

While showing the two cauldrons, Lu Heng also gave an overview of what happened in Zhuxian Ancient City, and then said: "What do you think these two friends should do with these nine cauldrons?"

The two bronze tripods that Lu Heng took out made Zhulong's eyes widen instantly.

He grabbed one of the cauldrons and flipped it up and down for a while, finally confirming that it was indeed the Jiuding.

After listening to Lu Heng's story, Zhulong was speechless for a long time.

He said slowly: "Since the death of the emperor and the collapse of the ancient heaven, Jiuding has been lost for many years. It was completely taken away by powerful enemies from outside the world. It only appeared when the catastrophe of the world came and those powerful enemies from outside the world harvested the creatures of the wild world. .”

"I didn't expect that my friend would be holding two cauldrons at the same time..."

Zhulong sighed: "My friend's luck really astonishes me."

"It's a pity that after the Nine Cauldrons were trained by the Earth Spirit Realm, they are no longer driven by my monks from the Heavenly Realm... My friend, please hide these two cauldrons."

"In our hands, they are just a hard piece of iron, unable to exert their divine power. But if they fall into the hands of monks from outside the world, they are invincible and a weapon that protects one's body."

"Now that we have recovered two Jiuding, we must hide them well to prevent them from falling into the hands of enemies outside the world, let alone leaking the news. It should be noted that there are actually many outside spies in the Tianhuang Realm, and not everyone is willing to resist to the end. .”

"In the catastrophes of the world again and again, some monks are willing to surrender to enemies outside the world in exchange for the continuation of life. Therefore, my friends should be more careful and don't carelessly display the Jiuding in front of others."

"Otherwise, the next time the earthly catastrophe comes, the enemies outside the world will definitely not let go of my friend! I will search the wild world and dig out your friend!"

Zhulong reminded quite seriously.

Lu Heng nodded and said: "I see, I have written it down. I will take good care of these two cauldrons and try not to let them get lost."

"But apart from Jiuding and the catastrophes of the world, have friends Zhulong ever heard of the giant beasts of the world?" Lu Heng finally asked this question.

But Zhulong, who knew everything about ancient secrets and understood them all, was completely confused when he heard the word Lu Heng said.

"Huh? A giant beast in the world?" Zhulong looked puzzled: "I dare to ask my friend, what is a giant beast in the world?"

Zhulong's reaction made Lu Heng stunned for a moment, and it was a bit difficult to understand: "My friend, you don't know about the giant beasts in the world?"

Zhulong was quite helpless: "Zhu is going to ask my friends for advice now. What is the world's giant beast, and why do I know its existence... Could this earthly beast also be related to enemies from outside the world?"

Zhulong changed his previous omniscience and encountered things he didn't understand for the first time.

When Lu Heng saw this, he could only sigh helplessly and said: "The so-called earthly beast is a huge and terrifying monster that is entangled outside the world of heaven and earth, and constantly absorbs the essence of all living beings in the world and the souls of the dead. …”

In the eyes of Zhulong and Jiu Mie, who were becoming more and more stunned, Lu Heng roughly recounted his experience of accidentally bumping into a giant beast in the alien space.

Chapter 416 Discussing Tao (5)

Lu Heng's narration was neither exaggerated nor detailed.

He hid some important information, such as what happened to Sister Yuanjun and Tianwaitian. It only focuses on exaggerating the horror of the giant beasts in the world, and the fact that the giant beasts are constantly sucking the life essence of the world.

After roughly speaking, Lu Heng looked at Zhulong, waiting for the response from this ancient living fossil.

After Zhulong heard Lu Heng's story, he kept frowning.

He said: "This strange beast is so terrifying that even the cultivation of my friends is as weak as a child in front of it. And it keeps sucking the life essence of the creatures in my world day and night... No wonder after the ancient heaven collapsed, There is no one who lives forever."

Zhulong murmured: "This unknown giant beast with inexplicable origins may have followed those supreme beings in ancient times. After those powerful enemies were defeated by Emperor Zun, this giant beast stayed behind. Continuously absorbing the essence of the creatures in the wild world day and night."

"It is precisely because of this reason that the lifespan of the creatures in the wild world is greatly reduced."

"In the ancient days of heaven, and even earlier times, practitioners could easily live for thousands of years as long as they opened the gate of heaven. If three flowers gathered on the top of the head, five qi came to the source, and stepped into the innate realm, they could live forever. Nearly immortal, life span is endless.”

"But since the collapse of heaven, the lifespan of practitioners in this world has been greatly reduced. It is not easy to live for thousands of years. Even if the mythical beasts and monsters can live longer, they still have the pain of depleted lifespan... It turns out that it is Because is there such a giant beast out there that can devour all living beings?"

Zhulong murmured: "Before, we thought it was because the Tianhuang Realm had experienced wars and the origin of the world was damaged, so the life span of practitioners was greatly reduced... Now it seems that there is another reason."

Lu Heng shook his head and said: "My friend is wrong. Although the monster is indeed constantly absorbing the essence of the creatures in the wild world, the reduction of the practitioner's lifespan may not really be related to it."

"It's just that such a terrifying monster is entangled outside the world, but you guys have never noticed its existence?" Lu Heng was slightly puzzled.

Regarding this, Zhulong sighed: "Today's Tianhuang Realm is jointly blocked by several other worlds, and the origin of the world has been damaged. We are like turtles in the nest. It is difficult to even escape from this world, let alone He said he wanted to go outside the world barrier and see the true nature of the world."

"The black Dead Sea at the end of the South China Sea Shark Kingdom is an insurmountable barrier for us."

"Although every time a catastrophe strikes in the world, and a group of powerful enemies from outside the world come to the Tianhuang Realm, the creatures in the Tianhuang Realm will also have the opportunity to break free from their prisons and escape to the outside world."

"But the remaining worlds in the Eight Desolate Worlds have all worked together to seal off the Tianhuang Realm. The creatures in the Tianhuang Realm will die without a burial place if they go to these worlds. To escape by force is just to escape from one dead place to another. .”

"And if you escape to those fragile worlds in the chaotic void, there will be no enemies there. But the chaos is so vast and vast that ordinary cultivation cannot cross the world. Even if a practitioner with a high level of cultivation can really succeed in crossing the chaotic void, Escaped to other worlds.”

"But the source of spiritual energy in those worlds is far inferior to that of the Eight Desolate Worlds. When the monks from the Eight Desolate Worlds went to those worlds, they lacked the spiritual energy supplements, and the divine power and spiritual energy in the body was reduced by one point."

"If you survive in such a world for a long time and exhaust all your spiritual energy, you will completely fall into the mortal world. Although you don't have to worry about being killed by the enemies of the Eight Desolate Worlds, you will live a useless life."

"I Zhulong disdains that kind of survival method," Zhulong said with an indifferent expression: "If we are really forced into a desperate situation and there is no way to avoid it, the worst we can do is fight with those outsiders in the dark and use all our strength. Only if you can kill the enemy bandits can you live your life in this world in vain."

On the Lundao Rock, Zhulong's narration caused the three of them to fall silent for a short time.

Even Xiao Ai on the side looked slightly solemn.

The truth of this world is so dark, so desperate, and shocking.

Before today, Xiao Ai had never imagined that the world he lived in was such a shady place.

In the ethereal sky, there is a group of vicious and terrifying enemies who are hostile to this place. Once the time is right, they will come to harvest living creatures and exterminate life in this world full of life, until the whole world is burned to a white ground. , they will leave only when there is not even a withered blade of grass left.

Then wait for the next harvest of life outside the sky...

Xiao Ai, who had a cold temperament, couldn't help frowning and sighing softly when she thought of this.

However, her sigh caused the three people on Lundao Rock to laugh.

"Haha... This is the first time I've seen Xiao Ai's expression like this," Jiu Mie said with a smile, "It seems Xiao Ai is also worried about the future of Tianhuang Realm."

Lu Heng laughed and said, "I think Xiao Ai is thinking about how to kill more outside enemies when the day of counterattack comes in the future."

At this point, the three of them looked at each other and laughed heartily again.

Finally, under Xiao Ai's bewildered eyes, Lu Heng and the other three smiled at the same time and raised their wine glasses in salute to each other.

Lu Heng said with a smile: "I hope that when the day of counterattack comes in the future, my two friends will not stop me and let me kill them."

Jiu Mie laughed and said: "You petty old Lu Lang, you are criticizing mulberry trees and locust trees. Last time, old monk, I said that God has the virtue of living a good life and refraining from killing. You have remembered it now, and you are really petty. Don't worry, we will counterattack. When the sun comes, I will never stop you, old monk, and I will be indifferent to you letting you order thunder from the sky to kill all evil spirits."

Zhulong's always gloomy face now showed a smile and said: "The two friends are so excited, so they have to take me with them. But I am different from the two friends. I have experienced nine earthly catastrophes and accumulated a total of After nine lifetimes of cultivation...don’t think the three of us are now equal."

"But once the day of counterattack arrives, I, Zhulong, will be able to gather all the cultivation skills of all the worlds and instantly leave the two of them behind. At that time, the two friends will kill the enemy freely under my protection."

"As long as my candle dragon remains alive, these two friends will live forever."

Zhulong laughed, extremely proud.

Jiu Mie glared and said: "You old Zhu Long, you are really not ashamed of your words. Although you have nine generations of cultivation, I, the old monk, have been training my heart in the world of mortals and I have not lived as long as you, but my cultivation may not be lower than yours."

"Emperor Fuxi can become invincible in all realms within a hundred years, which proves that strength is not necessarily directly proportional to age... Haha... It is not certain who will protect whom by then."

On the Taoist Rock, when the three of them said this, they all paused slightly.

They looked at each other and laughed loudly again.

Laughing so freely.

Chapter 417 Discussing Tao (6)

The laughter on Lundao Rock lasted for a while before it ended.

After the three of them drank the last of the aged wine, they prepared to leave.

Many times, words don’t need to be said bluntly. True friends can understand each other's feelings with just a look or a joke.
