Chapter 394 Those Four Walls Are Just Four Swords

"Five Cranes Climbing the Platform, is this the root of Daqian Mountain... No, there is something deeper here."

Lu Chen looked at the Winged Venerable Zuo Qiuan who cut off his arms as a sacrifice and absorbed the crane wings from the Five Cranes Climbing the Platform, and always felt that something was wrong.

He thought carefully and found that Zuo Qiuan seemed to have absorbed some special power by doing this, so that he could break free from the shackles, break through the Nascent Soul Stage, and reach the God Transformation Stage.

But there is a problem here.

The essence of the God Transformation Stage is to merge the body with the Tao.

Whether it is a cultivator or an ancient cultivator.

Although the way of walking is very different.

But the final result is the same.

But when Zuo Qiuan did this, was what he merged really the "Tao"?

But if it was not the Tao.

It is difficult to explain why Zuo Qiuan in the picture immediately climbed to the God Transformation Stage after absorbing the strange crane wings.

Although it is just a memory fragment.

But even if it was just a fragment, Lu Chen could still make a conclusion.

The Zuo Qiuan in the picture was now a cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage.

"Strange, what exactly made me feel wrong..."

Lu Chen frowned, as if he had grasped something vaguely.

But the feeling was vague, so Lu Chen could not grasp the real key.

At this time, Zuo Qiuan in the memory fragment was immersed in the joy of breakthrough.

"Hahaha, it's done, Taoist, I finally did it!"

Zuo Qiuan spread his wings and flapped them excitedly.

Although the crane wings that had just been grafted on and his body did not seem to be well integrated.

So that the wound was still oozing blood.

But Zuo Qiuan seemed to be unable to feel these, and was still immersed in that ecstasy, and even his expression was so excited that it was a little distorted, and he looked inhuman.

And in a place that Zuo Qiuan did not notice, the thousand-year-old man not far away showed a weird smile.

At first glance, that smile seemed to be happy for Zuo Qiuan.

But a closer look could show some weirdness.

It was like the expression of a spider after seeing its prey enter its web.

However, Zuo Qiuan, who was immersed in joy, did not notice these.

As a bystander, Lu Chen noticed the abnormality at the first time.

In a flash, Lu Chen seemed to have thought of something in his mind, and looked down at the Five Cranes Stage.

Under the Five Cranes Stage was a huge black fleshy Ganoderma.

This fleshy Ganoderma itself seemed to have no intelligence, and it had a lot of magic power, but could not use it.

But what if it was all pretending?

This made Lu Chen think of some plants in his previous life.

As a relatively low-level existence in the food chain in nature.

The way plants survive is different from animals.

Some plants that have the ability to prey are far less intuitive and efficient than animals in predation.

But because of their own weakness, plants are rarely seen by other predators.

This also creates conditions for their camouflage and use of other animals for hunting.

The Ganoderma lucidum under the Five Cranes Stage was huge, so big that if Lu Chen hadn't been in a God's perspective, he could have seen the whole picture to a certain extent.

Otherwise, he would have thought that this place was just an ordinary cave, and the black ground was just a special decoration here.

"The way of the gods is to steal. There are still many spiritual plants in the world of immortal cultivation that have cultivated into spirits and transformed from mortals to immortals. There is no reason why there are none in the ancient nine realms of the gods."

"In nature, some plants will first give their branches, leaves, flowers and fruits to other animals or insects, so that they can help them with the so-called hunting and achieve a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship."

"If this meat Ganoderma lucidum is also the same, then it can also lend its power to other people in Daqian Mountain first, and then borrow them to get what it wants."

"Yes, that's right. Zuo Qiuan didn't break through to the God Transformation Stage. He was lent the power of the God Transformation Stage."

"Otherwise, even if Zuo Qiuan is gifted, it is impossible to break through the shackles of the Nascent Soul Stage and the God Transformation Stage overnight."

"If this is true, then the entire Daqian Mountain may be an alternative ecology."

"Everyone here is equivalent to using different ways to try to borrow more power from a certain existence."

Thinking about it, Lu Chen felt that he had grasped the key.

The key is the relationship between Gu Qie and Gu Qie monks.

If the cultivation in the world of immortal cultivation is compared to starting a business alone and taking responsibility for one's own profits and losses.

Then the cultivation of Gu Qie monks is to work for others.

How much "salary" you get depends on your own work level and the other party's contribution.

The former has high risks and unknown returns, but it is autonomous and has a strong upper limit.

The latter has low risks and fixed returns, but there is a clear upper limit, but it is easy to be controlled by others and cannot control your own destiny.

If you think deeply, the Gu Qie people may look at Gu Qie monks like ranchers look at their own livestock.

Once fattened, they can be served on the table at any time.

As for the nature of this meat Ganoderma, Lu Chen also found the relevant name in his memory.

This meat Ganoderma is nothing else but the so-called "Black Tai Sui".

That is, the thing transformed from the polluted spiritual veins of heaven and earth.

In this regard, Black Tai Sui is actually the same type of existence as the Golden Dragon of Luck.

For special creatures like this, there is a unified name in the world of immortal cultivation... the innate spirit.

The core of Daqian Mountain's cultivation is to transform oneself into an innate spirit.

Lu Chen had to connect the two together.

"Give up one's mortal skin and seek the great way to enter the innate, but this innate... is it really oneself?"

Looking at Zuo Qiuan, who did not notice anything unusual in the picture and was still extremely excited, Lu Chen could not help but sigh.

After experiencing the gift of the Five Cranes on the Stage, Zuo Qiuan's next days were much more stable.

Not only did he become one of the five true venerables of Daqian Mountain.

He was able to directly mobilize the resources of Daqian Mountain.

This included the exploration of the Wanye Tomb.

Such days changed more than a hundred years later.

Zuo Qiuan, the Winged Venerable, at the age of 682.

"Master, are you looking for me?"

At that time, Zuo Qiuan had been in the position of the Venerable of Daqian Mountain for more than a hundred years.

He had already cultivated the temperament of a transcendent superior.

During the past hundred years, the Winged Venerable Zuo Qiuan arranged several explorations of the Wanqie Tomb.

And in the process, he cooperated with other ancient Qie sects to a certain extent.

Among them was Lu Chen's old friend, the Black Lotus Sect.

The Black Lotus Sect was in the Mahakala in the south.

Daqian Mountain was in the Shiwan Mountains in the west.

Both ancient Qie sects were in the forbidden areas marked by the Immortal Alliance.

This made Lu Chen wonder whether there were similar sects in the remaining two forbidden areas.

And the reason why he did not receive similar news.

Either because the other two sects were well hidden.

Or because they did not move around in the Immortal Alliance at all.

But from Zuo Qiuan's memory.

Lu Chen was more inclined to the former.

Because during the past hundred years of Zuo Qiuan, he not only came into contact with the Black Lotus Sect, but also some other sects that Lu Chen did not know.

Among them, even the righteous sects in the Immortal Alliance were included.

That's right, even some of the sects in the Immortal Alliance are involved with Daqian Mountain.

This is undoubtedly a very bad signal.

It also made Lu Chen feel a familiar atmosphere.

After all, Lu Chen saw a similar scene with his own eyes.

However, compared with what the Thousand-Year-Old Man is going to do now, those things can be postponed for the time being.

At this time, at the top of Hetou Mountain, the five venerables of Daqian Mountain gathered together.

Among them, the Thousand-Year-Old Man, as the master of Hetou Mountain, is not only one of the five venerables, but also the head of Daqian Mountain.

The Thousand-Year-Old Man at this time was so old that he couldn't even stand up straight.

Every step he took was staggering, as if he would fall at any time.

But even so, the other four Daqian Mountain Venerables still didn't dare to have any bad intentions towards the Thousand-Year-Old Man.

Because in the past hundred years, a Daqian Mountain Venerable felt that the Thousand-Year-Old Man seemed to be on his last legs, so he quietly took action and wanted to replace him.

The inferior conquers the superior, which is a fine tradition of Daqian Mountain and even the entire ancient world. It is not surprising.

But the result is obvious, after all, the thousand-year-old man is still alive and well.

On the contrary, the Venerable of the Foot has changed.

And today, the thousand-year-old man called all the Venerables here, of course, not to chat.

Several Venerables sat below the thousand-year-old man, waiting for the thousand-year-old man to take a seat seriously.

After sitting down, the thousand-year-old man put his crutches on the ground, put his hands on them, and looked up at everyone.

"Disciples, I can feel that the opportunity for ascension that we have dreamed of... has appeared."

"!!!"

As soon as these words came out, the four Venerables present showed shocked expressions.

Then Zuo Qiuan, who was more impatient, spoke first: "Master, are you serious?"

Although the other Venerables did not speak.

But looking at their appearance, it is obvious that they are all answering the thousand-year-old man.

The thousand-year-old man looked at Zuo Qiuan and said with a smile: "Of course it is true."

After receiving the affirmative answer from the thousand-year-old man, everyone could no longer contain their excitement. They all looked excited and eager to try.

After all, Cheng Qie is an irresistible temptation for all cultivators.

For the venerables who are already half a foot away from that realm.

The temptation is even more obvious.

However, the thousand-year-old man did not immediately say what the opportunity of Cheng Qie was.

But he changed the subject and asked: "I asked you to explore the truth of Biyou Mountain. What was the result?"

Hearing this, the Yu Zhi Venerable who was in charge of the whole process said immediately: "Reply to Master, although that person is still as immortal as ever, he has not taken action for a long time."

"My apprentice's several attempts were resolved by the other party with his subordinates, and he himself has never taken action."

The thousand-year-old man heard this and nodded calmly, as if he was not surprised by this.

And taking this opportunity, Yu Zhi Venerable expressed the doubts that had been buried in his heart for a long time.

"Master, I still cannot fully understand her methods and cultivation even now. May I ask if she is... an immortal?"

The thousand-year-old man was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes, but not either."

The venerable Yu, Tan Tai Changsheng, frowned, not quite understanding the meaning of this.

Perhaps it was the right time, and the thousand-year-old man said something that he had never said before.

"That person's heels are very complicated. Not only are they difficult to explain in a few words, but they also contain a lot of ancient secrets. It won't be of much benefit to you to know them."

"You just need to know that the one currently active in Biyou Mountain is just someone's sword."

"Her body has never really moved."

"A sword?!"

The four venerables present were all stunned when they heard this.

You must know that although they have never seen the fairy from Biyou Mountain take action.

But he has also seen the movement caused by the other party from a distance.

The Ten Thousand Tombs is terrifying, with mysterious corpses of ancient gods wandering around inside.

If you are not careful, even a monk in the transformation stage can easily be damaged inside.

However, similar corpses can be found everywhere in the Ten Thousand Tombs.

But such a terrifying forbidden area was blocked by Biyou Mountain.

And from time to time, he takes action to teach the restless master among them.

It is enough to see the strength of Biyou Mountain.

But even though it is such a powerful Biyoushan, you say it is just someone's sword.

This surprised and frightened everyone.

After all, just a sword is so terrifying.

They simply couldn't imagine how powerful the owner of this sword was.

Although I am very curious about what secrets Biyou Mountain hides.

Not only did the thousand-year-old man but also other former masters of Daqian Mountain feel inexplicably afraid of this, he also warned everyone not to take a half-step tour of the mountain easily.

But considering the strength shown by Biyoushan, the life-loving sages did not get to the bottom of this topic.

After all, although Biyoushan is strong, they seem to have some limitations.

Never left Biyou Mountain.

Compared with the topic of Biyou Mountain, what the thousand-year-old man said next shocked everyone present, even Lu Chen who was watching the memory.

"Haha, not only Biyou Mountain, but also the Great Wall of the Immortal Alliance, what do you think it is made of?"

Lord Yu Tantai Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and then said in disbelief: "Master means..."

"That's right, those four walls are just four scabbards after all."

"Break the wall? Haha, when the wall is broken, no one inside or outside the wall will be spared."

"At least for you here, there is absolutely no chance of survival."

"But that's not what I want to say today. What I want to say is the plan I will teach next."

"In the next period of time, I will leave a clone in the sect and personally go to the Immortal Alliance to look for the opportunity to become a disciple."

"If everything goes well, all you have to do is wait patiently here."

"If an accident occurs, you will follow what I say next."

After hearing this, the venerables began to listen carefully to the arrangements of the thousand-year-old man.

And these arrangements are exactly the same as the situation Lu Chen is encountering now.

Including the thousand-year-old man being trapped and letting others find ways to rob the prison.

It seems that hundreds of years ago, the thousand-year-old man had a premonition that he would encounter such a situation...
