The Lord of Ashes

"Is this my junior brother?" In the Yuxu Palace of Kunlun Mountain, Emperor Chanjiao Yuanshi looked at the little girl with braids in front of him. His originally majestic and smooth face could not help but show great surprise.

Although the Reincarnation Underworld is a cultural treasure, it is difficult for a top eighth-level saint like Yuanshi Tianzun to analyze its deep mysteries.

But even the gender of the leader of the Tongtian Cult has changed. This is a situation that Yuanshi Tianzun did not expect.

Relying on the deep understanding of the power of the Great Dao, Yuanshi Tianzun was sure that the girl in front of him did have a trace of his junior brother Tongtian Cult Master.

But the image of the Master Sword Cultivator of Tongtian Sect is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Thinking back to the scene when the opponent used the Four Swords of Killing Immortals to fight against the eighth-level master of a foreign land, how heroic it was.

At this moment, she suddenly transformed into a little girl holding an alchemy gourd, which made people feel weird no matter how she looked at it.

Duan Ning was also a little helpless at this moment looking at the phantom of the saint in front of her.

She couldn't even see clearly the outline and appearance of Yuanshi Tianzun, but her innate intelligence and talent made her know that the person in front of her was definitely beyond her imagination.

Indeed, in the entire fairyland civilization, Yuanshi Tianzun can be regarded as the one standing at the top.

Although he is not the leader of civilization, Chanjiao and most of the forces related to Chanjiao must follow the leadership of Yuanshi Tianzun.

Under the premise that the saint Laozi cannot come out of seclusion and the leader of Tongtian has fallen, Yuanshi Tianzun represents the "Tao" of the immortal realm!

Looking at the little girl in front of him, Yuanshi Tianzun suddenly remembered something, and turned to ask, "Do you have any younger brothers or older brothers?"

Forcibly searching for a person's soul would cause great harm to the person being searched. Of course, Yuanshi Tianzun would not do this to Duan Ning.

And if Duan Ning is really the reincarnation of Tongtian Cult Master, Yuanshi Tianzun will not be able to easily detect the memory of his soul, given his heel and the fate of the fairyland civilization involved.

Especially when it comes to past lives...

Facing Yuanshi Tianzun's question, Duan Ning hugged the gourd in her arms tightly. She rolled her eyes slightly and replied, "No, I am an orphan."

"Grandpa, can you let me go?"

"I am a disciple of Old Man Hua Yu, and he is a Yuanying Stage monk."

"This Jin-armored brother has been taken away for so long. Master and the others must be anxious."

"Master is very scary when he is angry." Duan Ning said to Yuanshi Tianzun in front of him.

Obviously she is an "old girl" who has lived for five hundred years, but because her body has not grown up, Duan Ning sometimes behaves like a little girl and says some childish words, but it is not annoying. It feels abrupt.

This is how the old sect leader of the Huayu Sect was initially attracted to Duan Ning and accepted him as his direct disciple.

Who doesn't like such a cute and sensible girl?

Duan Ning's words made Yuanshi Tianzun on the jade throne twitch slightly.

Nascent Soul Stage Monk...

You know, even those seventh-level saints who have become the Emperor of Heaven must be respectful when they come to Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountain and face Yuanshi Tianzun.

As for ordinary monks like immortals, they can't even see the face of Yuanshi Tianzun.

What kind of thing is a monk in the Nascent Soul Stage?

Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't help but look sideways at the golden-armored monk next to the girl. He really couldn't accept the fact that his junior brother had turned into a girl, and he still spoke like this...

Has he become a grandfather? Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't help but touch his long hair on the temples, which was already much grayer.

Saints will also grow old.

Facing the gaze of Yuanshi Tianzun, the golden-armored monk respectfully replied, "With the help of the secret talisman given by your master, my disciple indeed only found this woman and nothing else."

"Through a thorough investigation of the situation in the Tianyun Empire, the disciples found that the great energy there is turbid and unstable, and it is really difficult to explore the deeper situation." The golden-armored monk reported.

Yuanshi Tianzun nodded after hearing this and thought in his mind, "Master did cover up the reincarnation of his junior brother before he left."

"Furthermore, as one of the Pangu Primordial Spirits, junior brother enjoys part of Pangu's luck. It is indeed very easy to disrupt the great power of a region."

In fact, Yuanshi Tianzun was not convinced that he could find his junior brother so easily.

The reincarnated body of Tongtian Cult Leader was extremely surprised.

But the familiar aura of the girl in front of him cannot be faked!

Looking at the girl in front of him quietly, Yuanshi Tianzun suddenly said, "You like alchemy very much?"

The voice of the saint is as powerful as prison.

But for Duan Ning, the shadow of the old grandfather in front of her gave her a gentle feeling.

She is still holding the golden gourd given to her by her master. Duan Ning is not saying that she particularly likes this golden gourd, but it is just because this golden gourd is her most precious treasure, and it contains many of Duan Ning's elixirs and spirits. stone.

Facing Yuanshi Tianzun's inquiry, Duan Ning hesitated and nodded.

Yuanshi Tianzun nodded slightly, then flicked his right finger, and a purple gourd flew out from behind him, and finally fell into Duan Ning's hand.

"This is the last gourd made from the innate gourd vine in my senior brother's hand. After I refine it, it will become an innate spiritual treasure. From now on, I will leave it to you for self-defense."

"This treasure can not only warm and nourish elixirs and immortal weapons, but also smelt all things and use them to defend against enemies."

"Next, you can have a good understanding of its mysterious power." Yuanshi Tianzun said.

He is indeed a figure standing at the top of the Immortal Realm Pyramid. The treasures given by Yuanshi Tianzun are not ordinary.

This purple gourd already has the level of a mid-level world-class secret treasure, and it is also an innate spiritual treasure.

Even the golden-armored monk next to the girl looked at Duan Ning with great envy.

Duan Ning, who is only at the second level of strength, has a world-class secret treasure at his side. This is the difference between his feet and his birth. Others cannot envy him.

Although Duan Ning didn't know what level of treasure the innate spiritual treasure was, it didn't stop her from seeing the purple gourd in front of her right away.

He couldn't help but put away the golden gourd in his hand, and stepped forward to hug the purple gourd.

This purple gourd is also quite spiritual. It is dangling in Duan Ning's arms and seems to be very happy.

Seeing this, Yuanshi Tianzun nodded.

One of the reasons why he now takes great care of the reincarnation of Master Tongtian is to make up for some of the things that happened back then and rebuild the brotherhood between them.

In addition to presenting the treasures to the leader of Tongtian Cult, seeing that Duan Ning was still in the golden elixir realm, Yuanshi Tianzun immediately wanted to give him another cultivation method.

"No, junior brother is taking the path of swordsmanship, and I have the least understanding of the path of swordsmanship."

"Let's let the senior brother teach the junior brother to return to the top of the sword." Yuanshi Tianzun thought in his heart.

So he stretched his big hand forward, and Duan Ning flew towards Yuanshi Tianzun uncontrollably.

"I'll find you a new master!"

"What kind of Nascent Soul Stage monk is qualified to teach you?"

After grabbing Duan Ning in his hand, Yuanshi Tianzun glanced at the golden-armored monk in Yuxu Palace and said, "I will leave for a while, and you guys will guard the mountain gate and continue to uphold justice and protect the righteous people."

"Yes." The golden-armored monk said respectfully.

Then, a wisp of auspicious clouds flew over, and Yuanshi Tianzun took Duan Ning straight towards the Eight Views Palace outside the prehistoric world.

…

In the Bajing Palace, when Yuanshi Tianzun arrived with Duan Ning, I was enlightening.

Recently, the fairyland civilization has intervened in the wizard civilization war, and the fate of the entire civilization has become unclear.

In addition, Daozu Hongjun said before leaving that a great disaster was coming in the Immortal Realm. It seemed that I was just doing nothing, but in fact I also wanted to understand the mystery.

The sudden appearance of Yuanshi Tianzun and Duan Ning interrupted me from that mysterious and mysterious state.

Looking at Duan Ning who looked like a little girl in front of me, I was also stunned.

"This is..." The sage pointed at the girl in front of him.

"For our third brother, Master Tongtian." Yuanshi Tianzun answered.

I frowned, then slowly relaxed, and I couldn't help but nodded and said, "It is true that some of my junior brother's aura remains."

"What do you want?" I

Then he asked Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Please, senior brother, teach our third brother to return to the realm of a saint."

"Help him retrieve his past and present lives and take charge of the great cause of interception and education!" Yuanshi Tianzun said seriously.

Looking at Yuanshi Tianzun's answer, we can conclude that the conflict between this saint of Chanjiao and the leader of Tongtian in ancient times has really come to an end.

Only when you lose can you learn to cherish.

As long as they, the Three Pure Ones, unite and rely on the same innate roots, it will not be difficult to revitalize the civilization of the Immortal Realm after the Tao Ancestor.

Including Buddhism, in the face of the re-gathering of the three religions, Chan and Jie, they have to continue to hide and endure.

This may really be a way to break the situation!

The sage Lao Tzu could naturally see this. Facing Yuanshi Tianzun with a serious look on his face, he looked at Duan Ning next to him who looked confused. After a long time, he finally nodded slightly. 🅆

Compared to breaking the situation, perhaps the identity of the reincarnated body of Lord Tongtian was also one of the main reasons that prompted me to make this decision.

The Three Purities are originally one source.

"From today on, you are my second disciple." I said to Duan Ning.

Because I represented a certain will of the Immortal Realm at this time, when he said these words, an indescribable power of the Great Law was directly instilled in Duan Ning.

There is nothing mysterious about this power of the Great Dao for the time being.

But its real function is reflected in the future!

For example, Duan Ning can borrow the blessings of special laws from some planes in the prehistoric or fairy realm, or her future cultivation progress can be said to be rapid.

She finally had hope and could catch up with her brother's cultivation progress.

This kind of power is a bit like the will of the wizarding world towards the members of the Baxia family.

"Although you and I are of the same origin, we should treat each other as brothers."

"But Taoist Patriarch once said that the Dharma cannot be taught to outsiders. From today on, you call me Master."

"When one day you recover your past life memories and become Tongtian, we will end this relationship." The sage said to Duan Ning.

In recent times, Duan Ning's little brain has been a little overwhelmed by the events that have happened one after another.

Her lips moved, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she lowered her head and accepted my blessing of becoming a disciple.

After the ceremony was completed, there was a smile on Yuanshi Tianzun's face. Taking advantage of his good mood and the fact that his senior brother and I had changed his previous indifferent attitude of not wanting to care about anything, Yuanshi Tianzun hurriedly asked him for advice on wizard civilization. The perception of a war going on.

Chanjiao is now unable to keep up with the civilized war that the wizarding civilization is waging against the Gallente Federation.

But it is possible to intervene in the war against the Minghe Empire.

Moreover, Yuanshi Tianzun also found out from some channels that the battlefield of Huanyu, where the wizarding civilization was fighting against the Minghe Empire, had recently undergone new changes.

Faced with Yuanshi Tianzun's initiative to ask for advice, the sage Laozi suddenly said, "Junior brother, have you ever thought about it?"

"Before the Master left the star world, the great calamity he mentioned did not come from within us, but from the outside?" Laozi asked.

"ah?"

"Where do you come from? Wizarding civilization?"

"Or the Minghe Empire?" Yuanshi Tianzun asked in astonishment.

To this day, their fairyland civilization has not yet encountered a worthy opponent!

Not to mention the Wizarding Civilization and the Gallente Federation, even the Hades Empire was not taken seriously by the Immortal Realm.

As long as the forces of Buddhism, Taoism, and demons in the Immortal Realm can unite as one, it will not be difficult to compete head-on with the Minghe Empire.

The previous direct or indirect confrontation between the wizard civilization and the Minghe Empire also allowed the fairyland civilization to collect a lot of information.

This gave them a rough guess about the strength of the Minghe Empire.

Of course, the first pharaoh, Ozman, is indeed a powerful being that is hard to ignore.

But considering that it is difficult for ninth-level creatures to exist in the star world for a long time, even figures like Daozu Hongjun have left.

Even if Ozyman Deas succeeds in breaking through, he probably won't be able to stay in the star realm for too long.

\u003cb

r\u003eGiven the even longer time and space distance between the Immortal Realm civilization and the Minghe Empire, the first pharaoh of the Minghe Empire would only come all the way to find trouble in the Immortal Realm unless his head was squeezed by a door.

Therefore, for the Immortal Realm at this time, they are really happy. There are no enemies of sufficient weight around them, so they can expand infinitely and expand again!

This is one of the main reasons why the Immortal Civilization's strength has grown so rapidly in the past two hundred thousand years.

Facing Yuanshi Tianzun's rhetorical question, the sage shook his head and said nothing in the end.

…

After Yuanshi Tianzun left, I called my eldest disciple Xuan Du over and said to Duan Ning, "This is your eldest brother."

Xuandu is an old man with gray hair and beard, including the sage Lao Tzu.

For a long time in the future, Duan Ning will study Taoism with these two old men in Bajing Palace.

Of course, some people are more than envious of this situation.

After all, not everyone can get close instruction from two eighth-level masters.

The little girl Duan Ning said to Xuandu crisply, "Hello, senior brother!"

Xuan Du nodded kindly, smiled and said, "Hello, junior sister."

Xuandu probably didn't expect that he would have another junior sister.

The sage Laozi did not explain Duan Ning's life experience to Xuandu, including Xuandu, who also followed the path of inaction, so he did not pursue more.

It may be a very novel feeling for Xuandu to have such a young junior sister.

It's great for senior brothers and sisters to live in harmony. I then continued, "In addition to your senior brother, I also have two registered disciples."

"Although they started before you, there are differences between inside and outside. You should be their senior sister, and they will be your junior brothers."

"When you have the opportunity in the future, you can get to know them." The sage continued.

"Yes, Master." Duan Ning replied respectfully.

The little girl never expected what kind of two "junior brothers" she would have.

"Alright, my master will teach you the path of sword cultivation. It seems that you haven't embarked on the path of sword cultivation yet."

"I heard that you like alchemy? This way can be temporarily taught by your senior brother Xuandu." I said.

"Yes." Duan Ning replied, anyway, the master has the final say in everything.

No matter how slow Duan Ning was, she felt that this was a great opportunity for her.

In fact, she likes alchemy just because she can refine pills and give them to her and her brother to practice and take.

The difficulty of growing and rising as a casual cultivator in the Immortal Realm is not something that the proud sons of heaven can come into contact with.

However, in the subsequent practical teachings, the sage Laozi gradually discovered that his second disciple could not be said to be completely ignorant of sword cultivation. He was simply stubborn and ineffective!

I am a little stunned. Is this really the reincarnation of the leader of Tongtian?

Although Duan Ning had a poor understanding of sword cultivation, she worked really hard during the training process, including studying alchemy with Xuan Du.

This is all seen by the sage Lao Tzu.

If you force yourself to follow a path that is not suitable for you, you may not have good results.

Although he couldn't figure out what the situation was, the sage made what he thought was the most correct decision: "Wait a minute, from today on, you don't have to practice swordsmanship anymore!"

"Is this disciple too stupid, Master?" Duan Ning asked cowardly.

I shook my head and replied, "I will teach you a Taoist magical power that is more suitable for you."

"What magical power is it?" Duan Ning also vaguely knew that his master and senior brother were extraordinary after being in contact with them for a while, so he couldn't help but ask.

The sage observed Duan Ning for a long time, especially her bones and superficial soul, and said, "I will teach you how to transform the three pure states with one breath!"

Duan Ning nodded again and replied, "Okay."

It was Lao Tzu's decision that almost caused him to stumble when he later witnessed Duan Ning's performance after releasing this magical power.

But that’s a story for another day.
