King of Black Mist

The pure white essence flows in the valley, and elixirs, magical herbs, fairy flowers, magic fruits, and demonic trees are everywhere.

Ten Thousand Spirits Stone Dragon Peak gathers its essence here, and the streams flowing in the valley are supreme divine springs.

Even a nine-thousand-year-old peach tree is nothing here.

In the fairyland-like valley, the most magical thing is naturally the ancient tree that has been enlightened for millions of years. Every leaf on the tree carries a kind of Tao.

What's more important is that this ancient tree of enlightenment, because it absorbed too many great avenues, actually took over the creation of the world and had a little bit of the aura of the original divine tree.

One day in the future, if you can survive the three tribulations, you can truly become the original divine body.

Li Changzhou thought of the [Saint·Human] and the Star-Eating Sea who failed to overcome the tribulation. Perhaps the process of the two becoming the original divine body was similar to this ancient tree of enlightenment.

"This valley is simply a miracle!" The combatants discovered this place.

Before they even entered the valley, a battle broke out in the air. Many of the participants exploded and died in this heavenly third holy city.

A golden crocodile charged into the valley first.

Any creature that enters the valley will be attracted by the Ancient Enlightenment Tree, and it is no exception.

"Okay! If you have this tree, you don't need other sacred objects!"

The million-year-old enlightenment tree is so precious that it can make people leave the Third Holy City early in order to keep it.

The golden crocodile swam in the air, turning into a stream of light and approaching.

In order not to encounter too many attacks in the battle, its size was reduced to only three feet, but its momentum could crush a starry sky.

It walked closer and immediately sensed a breath under the tree. It thought there were combatants ambushing it, so it took action without thinking.

The whole body burned with golden flames, and the flames separated from the body and turned into a golden crocodile of pure energy, hitting Li Changzhou at the speed of light.

The light flashed across the valley.

The billowing black mist filled the air from under the ancient tree of Enlightenment, and the stream of light sank into it and disappeared directly.

The golden crocodile trembled all over, and the black mist revealed great terror, as if it was the source of darkness in the universe, swallowing up the universe and burying everything in darkness.

Fear made it let out a strange scream, turn around and run away.

The black mist did not chase, but spread steadily, gradually covering the entire valley, and everyone who wanted to enter the valley hurriedly avoided it.

They are also spiritual species after all, and their sensitivity to crises is far beyond that of ordinary people. They don't need to test at all. They only know by feeling that whoever touches the black mist in front of them will die.

Li Changzhou had no intention of devouring every plant and tree in the valley, nor did he have any intention of occupying it and letting the immortals on earth take it back.

What he wants is that this place belongs to him temporarily before he leaves the Third Holy City.

The rest want everything in the valley, and when he is gone, feel free to fight for it.

Black fog shrouded the area, and the strong men who refused to give up captured the weak combatants and forced them to go in to collect medicine.

Without exception, once they enter the range of the black mist, they will all be swallowed up.

This is more difficult to solve than the formation. The formation is like a math problem. No matter how difficult it is, it is still a problem. Not only will it not stop everyone, but it will stimulate their competitiveness, especially the formation masters.

The black mist is different. It's strange and unknown. It's instant death if you touch it. It's something that's not within the scope of understanding at all.

If you look carefully, you will definitely find treasures like the million-year-old ancient tree of enlightenment in the third holy city, and no one will bother with it and waste time here.

The most precious thing about the Ancient Enlightenment Tree is that it can help people enlighten themselves. It is a sacred object that will never lose its effect and can also continue the Taoist tradition. This is why Li Changzhou chose this place.

Three days later, Yang Qinglan, Yaochi, and Li Qianxia entered the third holy city.

Although the Third Holy City is also vast, it is not boundless compared to Tianzhi. They heard about the black mist in the city built by the players and came immediately.

"City?" Li Changzhou was confused.

There was the "Wisdom Pearl" in the front, the insights of fighting in the middle, and the Ancient Tree of Enlightenment in the back. For three days, he really didn't feel anything at all.

Time passed faster than a water spider passing by on the water.

"For transaction." Yang Qinglan adjusted her skirt and sat down next to him.

There is no black fog inside, and the black fog outside does not swallow up the sun and wind. The sun is always shining here and the grass is shining.

She was extremely beautiful.

Li Qianxia, ​​who immediately changed into a waist-baring hot girl outfit, added: "I heard that some people plan to live here and settle here from now on."

Yaochi put away his armor, revealing the gorgeous and elegant red clothes underneath.

She smiled and said: "Those who climbed the Holy Road for generations finally stayed where they were and became residents of the city - the First Holy City and the Second Holy City. Maybe that's how they came to be."

She just said it casually.

No one knows what the truth is. After all, there were no value games in the past, and there were no participants in the war.

After chatting for a while, Li Qianxia grabbed Li Changzhou's arm and said, "Brother, hurry up and teach me that super and invincible trick of 'Whoever goes against me will perish'!"

"Whoever rebels against me will perish?" Li Changzhou smiled, "The name is just to undermine the self-confidence of those people, so as not to continue to die."

He told the three people about ‘Whoever opposes me will perish’.

The three of them listened very carefully.

Those who go against me will perish, which is the most superficial use of fate. To a certain extent, Li Changzhou even felt that he could not reach the hall of elegance.

To put it simply, it is a move that combines [Black Mist·Death Line] and [Destiny·Life Line] into one.

"Death line": Everything has a death line. The black mist condenses into a black line. After hitting the target, it will immediately kill the target.

As for the "fate line", it is an application of [God's Will and Destiny]. It can be said that it is a destiny woven by the God of Destiny himself.

"Lifeline" is responsible for locking and winning;

"Dead line" is responsible for killing;

The combination of the two is simple and crude. It is taboo in terms of lethality, and there is no problem.

What Li Changzhou understands now is more about the "fate line", and he has no ability to think deeply. He can only ponder the power of the characteristic of "fate is inevitable".

One day, when [God's will and destiny] is fully understood, he will be able to weave all sentient beings and events with the thread of life, and everything will be under his arrangement.

However, [God's Will·Destiny] is less lethal than other offensive God's Will, especially when it targets the heaven.

Mortals can also weave life threads, making people rich or dead instantly;

When facing spiritual seeds, you can only arrange for the other party to succeed at something at a suitable time, or fail at a certain place;

Heaven's position is difficult. If it is discovered, it can directly change the direction of the fate line with God's will. Only if it is not discovered, it can play a role.

In addition, [God's Will·Destiny] is difficult to understand, so naturally it cannot be ranked among the ten most powerful God's Will.

But Li Changzhou has [Black Mist·Death Line], the death line and the life line are integrated, exerting great power, showing the inevitability and coldness of fate.

"I think it's already very strong." Li Qianxia didn't understand.

What kind of death line or life line?

This kind of thing that is divorced from reality is beyond the understanding of her creator, right?

She fell silent.

The death line and the life line may not be useless when she creates things.

These are also two angles for understanding [God’s Will and Creator].

As she pondered deeply, coupled with the environment of the Third Holy City, she directly entered the realm of enlightenment.

Yang Qinglan and Yaochi also realized the Tao one after another and drew parallels.

Li Changzhou naturally did not lag behind and continued to sort out his feelings.

When the four of them woke up, Li Qianxia, ​​Yang Qinglan, and Yaochi also shared their insights along the way and evolved their own destiny.

The four of them continued to communicate and gain enlightenment.

Li Changzhou is [God’s Will·Destiny];

Yaochi is [God’s Will·Mechanical Master];

Li Qianxia is [God’s Will·Creator];

Yang Qinglan is [God’s Will·Daohe].

If you break it down and look at it, you can see that there are overlaps between them, such as the machinery built by Yaochi and the creations of Li Qianxia.

The Ancient Enlightenment Tree also instinctively participated. While absorbing the Dao of the four, it also radiated its own brilliance to help the four understand.

This retreat lasted for three years.

Except for occasionally paying attention to the outside world to confirm that no combatants had entered the eighth city, the four of them did not even change their posture.

One of the thirty-six Heavenly Will beads on Yaochi's Heavenly Will mechanical armor lit up again, bringing the total number to twenty-three.

There are nine mortal-level ones, nine spiritual-level ones, nine heavenly-level ones, and nine holy-level ones. Twenty-seven are the limit of the heavenly level. She has mastered twenty-three of them now.

Those who think that Yaochi is just a dependency of the King of Black Mist and dare to underestimate her will surely pay the price in blood.

Li Qianxia's creation skills have gone a step further. He can use God's will three times by himself alone.

In particular, she has been able to see the line of death and destiny between heaven and earth on extremely rare occasions.

The greatest contribution is neither her understanding nor the ancient tree of enlightenment, but her almost identical blood relationship with Li Changzhou.

[Golden Branches and Jade Leaves], as long as Li Changzhou teaches it sincerely, she can master it.

Secondly, her physique, although it is never shown, is still much stronger than the original fire tree like Li Huoya.

[Gemini] This instinct is always there.

Although Li Changzhou made no obvious progress, he was still enlightened, and new insights bloomed in his spiritual consciousness every moment.

Magic power, mysterious power, qi, celestial demons, thunder and lightning and other divine forms were all successfully transformed into talismans.

The original sacred tree appeared, the Taoist flowers swayed, and the talismans were like heavenly books, very mysterious.

The person who gained the most from this exchange of enlightenment and retreat was Yang Qinglan.

[Heaven's Will·Daohe] The sea is open to all rivers, not to mention her understanding itself is the highest among the four.

I still remember that when she advanced from human immortal to earth immortal, she was the first and the first person to create life in the world of Hengsha.

Li Qianxia always asked her for advice on creating things.

As for character. In the first value game, when the players in the same game were still hesitant, she dared to take the initiative to kill people. Li Qianxia was the first person she found.

If Li Qianxia hadn't been a woman, kind-hearted, and naturally a [Twin] with no fighting ability, she might have been killed by Yang Qinglan.

The sound of the Tao rumbled, and Yang Qinglan's whole body was filled with light, shining in all directions. It was extremely sacred, and even more light rain fell from the void, just like the transformation of the Tao.

The ancient trees of Enlightenment were rustling, and scriptures appeared on every leaf, falling like a waterfall.

Even the jade tripod on Yang Qinglan's head, the Ruyi in her arms (which has been repaired with supreme materials), and the green clothes on her body all emit light, and the spirit of the equipment inside is chanting sutras.

Suddenly, bright red blood flowed from Yang Qinglan's jade-white eyebrows.

The three of them were nervous for a while, but also sighed that this was self-inflicted harm.

To put it bluntly, Yang Qinglan's understanding was so profound that he almost became a part of the Tao, so he could only hurt himself and interrupt his understanding.

Her temperament became more and more ethereal, but soon she returned to her original nature, becoming an elegant and pure person who looked like a young girl or a young woman.

With Li Changzhou and Yang Tianlu around, she could maintain her original intention.

It is one thing to understand the Dao and exert its power; it is another thing to believe that the Dao is right, completely obey the Dao, and become the spokesperson of the Dao.

The former is a monk who seizes the fortune of heaven and earth;

The latter, at best, is the spokesperson of Heaven; at worst, he is a puppet and a walking corpse.

Yang Qinglan slowly opened her eyes, exhaled lightly, and sighed: "Looking back on the past, we can take a step further."

She has been able to use Providence six times!

Even if the environment is special, there are valuable games, Taoist companions (in a broad sense, including Li Qianxia and Yaochi), and suitable opponents, it is simply a miracle that it only takes thirteen years and four months to advance to this level. , creating myths.

At this point, the four of them were unable to make any progress in a short period of time.

"When you go out this time, you must not be careless because of your improved strength." Yaochi was the first to speak, with a serious tone.

Yang Qinglan said: "If we can communicate and gain enlightenment, naturally others can too."

"Yeah!" Li Qianxia nodded carefully.

As soon as the words changed, Yaochi sighed: "What a pity for this valley."

No one said she was greedy for money this time. Yang Qinglan even wanted to move this valley and use it as her own courtyard.

For the eternal heaven of life, a good living environment is absolutely important. Otherwise, how can we spend the long years?

And this valley, not to mention thousands of years, even millions of years, will never get boring, it can be said to be an excellent treasure.

"Suddenly I understand those players who plan to stay here." Li Qianxia said.

Especially for some elders, who have lived for too long and have no relatives or friends in the world. By settling here, not only will they feel comfortable, but they can even take a step closer in cultivation.

Some spiritual masters without family members, or those who are dedicated to seeking the truth, will also settle here.

"Let's go, it's not yours anymore." Li Changzhou smiled and hugged Yaochi's thin waist.

Because of being hugged by him, Yaochi became very childish, clenched his fists and said: "When I become a saint, I will come back to clean it up!"

When she said this, Li Changzhou, who had originally planned to remove the black mist, had no choice but to give up.

"The honeypot world is pretty good," Li Qianxia couldn't help but say, "In the future, we will travel around the universe and collect all kinds of good things, and sooner or later we will surpass this place."

That was her and Li Changzhou's home. No matter how bad it was, it was still her heart's treasure.

Of course, she also admitted that the gap is too big now. The best thing in the honeypot world is the peach tree, but in this valley, even the grass can compete with the peach tree.

Yang Qinglan said nothing, but was amused by Yaochi's reaction and couldn't help but smile.

Like Li Changzhou, she thought it was nice here, but it wasn't necessary.

Just as the four of them were about to leave, the ancient tree of Enlightenment suddenly swayed and the sound of the avenue roared.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Li Qianxia was confused.

Li Changzhou and Yaochi didn't understand either.

Yang Qinglan was thoughtful and said in an uncertain tone: "It wants to go with us."

The three of them were stunned for a while.

They have also been to many places, and this is the first time that they have met a divine creature and recognized its owner and actively followed them.

Yaochi's heart ached even more: "If you can take them away, I won't let them go. Husband, please rub them for me. It hurts so much."

She picked up Li Changzhou's hand and pressed it on her body.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Li Qianxia couldn't stand it anymore.

Li Changzhou was forced to rub Yaochi while looking at Yang Qinglan.

Because of the rules of the Third Holy City, he originally did not take the request of the Ancient Tree of Enlightenment seriously, but looking at Yang Qinglan's expression, it seemed that the situation was special.

The Ancient Tree of Enlightenment is similar to the Supreme Heavenly Artifact, and its sanity is not very high. At this time, it can only communicate through the Tao sounds produced by the leaves of Enlightenment.

Yang Qinglan is the only one among the four who can communicate using Taoist sounds.

"It said," Yang Qinglan's beautiful jade face showed a look of contemplation, "Following it actively will not affect the holy road."

"Oh?" The three of them became interested.

"Is coercion okay?" Yaochi took away her husband's hand, feeling relieved from her heartache and eager to give it a try.

"What's the difference between coercion and forced removal?" Yang Qinglan glanced at her, then glanced at her left chest.

"It hurts. It starts to hurt again." Not only did Yaochi not change, she even went to take Li Changzhou's hand again.

"Sister Yao, don't worry, I'll rub it for you!" Li Qianxia volunteered.

"Ah!" After being attacked, Yaochi let out a soft cry, as if he was the first one to be splashed with water when he went to the beach to play.

She huddled in Li Changzhou's arms.

The ancient tree of enlightenment rose from the ground. Not only that, many sacred trees, fairy grass, demon trees, and magic fruits also followed.

The biggest reason why they stay in this valley is that the surrounding tens of thousands of spiritual mountains have enough energy to nourish them.

Secondly, even if the ancient trees of enlightenment are there, when the wind blows and the sounds of the Tao come out, they can also benefit from the light.

But now, when players enter the third holy city, they will be uprooted. It’s just that they can’t enjoy the Ten Thousand Spiritual Mountains, and they will also be eaten.

The ancient tree of Enlightenment is also gone.

They simply followed him and recognized him after being eaten. They could stay with the Ancient Tree of Enlightenment for a while.

Li Changzhou opened the honeypot world and ignored him.

Mainly the ancient trees of Enlightenment, a torrent rushed towards Yang Qinglan. Yang Qinglan opened his own Hengsha world and let them in.

The spiritual energy of Hengsha World instantly increased thousands of times.

"Brother." Li Qianxia put her hand on Li Changzhou's shoulder - not to comfort him, but to remind him that she was watching his joke.

After a few years, Li Changzhou once again scratched the tip of his eyes with his fingers.

"Would you like me to rub it for you?" Yaochi teased, "I'm talking about the chest, weird places can't be used this time."

Yang Qinglan tapped Yaochi's shoulder with Ruyi and chuckled: "Let's go, you pervert."

The four of them did not go to the city established by the player, and had no plans to trade or exchange. They went directly to the fourth holy city and continued their battle.
