Ning Changjiu and Lu Jiaojian slowly walked down the mountain path with the dragon bearers. The huge circular valley surrounded them like a duel field, surrounded by tens of thousands of mountains.
The dragons don't look huge from the top of the cliff. When you get closer, you can see the hills towering in front of them one after another. The bodies of ordinary people are no more than the size of their sharp claws. The ancient dragon lay dormant on the ground, dozing under the cover of the mountains of red clouds.
The dragon bearer walked among them, and the dragons looked at it as if to show respect.
Ning looked around for a long time.
Several ancient dragons also stared at him curiously. Their nictitating membranes kept brushing against their pupils, and their eyes seemed not to like such a dry environment.
"Senior, are you from the Dragon Clan?" Ning Jiujiu asked.
The dragon bearer shook his head and said: "No, but my mentor is a dragon. After he ascends and leaves, I will take care of his bloodline for him."
Ning Jiujiu nodded gently: "Senior is really a man of faith."
The Dragon Bearer said: "You humans may like complimentary words, but I don't. You talk too much and are far less calm than your Taoist companions."
Ning Jiujiu glanced at Lu Married, and Lu Married smiled helplessly. It wasn't that she didn't want to talk, it was just that the previous method of ascending to the Three Legendary Realms had given her a lot of shock, and she was still wondering what it meant.
The dragon bearer led them for a while.
The road is long, but the dragon bearers walk it like ordinary people.
Ning Jiujiu was puzzled. The place where the Dragon Rider wanted to take them was not too far away, but if they wanted to go on foot, they would probably have to walk for more than an hour.
"I know the doubts in your heart." The Dragon Bearer said: "If I want to cross the world, I will choose to fly with a sword, but this journey is too short, and flying with a sword is not convenient for thinking."
Ning Jiujiu thought to himself that if he spoke like this, he would look less like a Taoist and more like an old scholar.
The Dragon Rider seems to be able to read people's hearts: "A cultivator who practices Taoism to the end is a scholar. If you break the law with a sword, you will eventually die. Only the truth will last forever."
Ning Jiujiu dared not think about it for a long time, but he still sighed that the monks of five hundred years ago were indeed different today.
Perhaps this is the reason why fewer and fewer people can enter the five realms nowadays.
They walked forward slowly.
The dragon bearer always lowered his head, as if pondering something.
Finally, they came to the end.
It was a huge, rock-surfaced cube, almost as big as a city.
"Your arrival has really lit up my new ideas." The Dragon Hunter stopped and said: "Of course, this is also your luck. Maybe today, you will have the opportunity to see the real scene of enlightenment and ascension. ”
The door to the rock opens.
A young man walked out. He looked at the two people behind the Dragon Hunter, slightly confused.
The dragon bearer took off his sword, handed it to the young man, and said, "Take care of those old dragons for me in the future."
The young man looked startled: "Are you finally leaving?"
The dragon bearer nodded.
The young man took the ancient sword and said, "I can't do it..."
The Dragon Bearer said: "When I took over the sword from my mentor, I was about the same age as you. I did it back then, and you should be able to do it too, as long as you guard this small area. If the situation is irreversible, I can't blame you. , just try your best.”
The young man took the sword tremblingly and said with tears in his eyes: "Yes, Master. But... But the sage clearly said that back then... "
"I don't believe what he said. I feel that the path I am taking is the only and correct path for a practitioner." The Dragon Bearer said.
The young man said no more.
The dragon bearer said to Ning Changjiu and Lu Jianjiu: "Come in with me."
They followed the dragon bearer into the city made of huge rocks.
The suspended stone city was bright.
Ning looked to both sides for a long time.
There is a river-like dividing line in the center of the stone city, with residents and buildings on both sides, as well as many mountains and big trees, but none of them are real. Everything is made up of neat little squares.
This stone city is a huge sand table.
"This is my research." The Dragon Hunter said, "The content of my research is the principle of symmetry on the other side."
Ning Changjiu looked stunned.
Symmetry on the other side is the law followed in the small world.
Previously in Madam Bai's shattered Fengdu City, they and Madam Bai faced off across the river. What was limited was this theorem. Only when the realms of practitioners on both sides of the central axis are similar can the world be balanced, otherwise the world will be unbalanced and collapse.
During the decisive battle in Linhe City, Zhao Xiang'er, Madam Bai, Ning Xiaoling and him were all on one side of Linhe City. When the world was about to become unbalanced, he used the small flying formation to reach the other side, so the world maintained its own balance and chose He rescued himself for the container, and the spiritual energy poured into his body instantly broke through the threshold, allowing him to step into the profound world in one fell swoop, forming the Innate Spiritual Golden Crow, tearing apart the night of Linhe City.
The dragon bearer said: "I didn't expect you to have experienced it... It seems that you have a deeper understanding of this."
Ning Jiujiu shook his head gently: "At that time, life and death were at stake. How could I have thought about this?"
They are three people standing on the central axis.
The dragon bearer said to Ning Jiujiu: "You go to the left."
Ning stood on the left for a long time.
The world began to slowly collapse to the left.
The dragon bearer said to Lu Marian, "You go to the right."
Lu Marry stood on the right.
The two sides began to balance again.
The dragon bearer himself sometimes walks to the left and sometimes to the right, but neither of them has much impact on the world.
"Because I am the creator of the world." The Dragon Hunter gave the first explanation: "The master of the world does not need to abide by this principle."
Ning Jiujiu nodded gently. Madam Bai was not affected at first, but later the pillar of mythical logic collapsed and she lost control of Fengdu, and she was also affected.
He began to briefly explain the principles of symmetry on the other side.
"First of all, it must be an ownerless, closed world."
"The larger the world, the weaker the effect of symmetry."
"The reason for symmetry is that the small world will be rejected by the big world. Creating a world within a world is equivalent to carefully placing a piece of wood on a pointed stone, so its balance is extremely important. And what maintains balance is It is the realm of a monk.”
"I have made thousands of calculations. According to this rule, the realm of a monk is clearly quantitative."
"If entering the Xuan is one, then the Immortality is two, the longevity is four, the Purple Court is eight, and the Six Paths is sixteen. This result is different from my initial imagination, because its balance only measures the realm. When you first enter the Purple Court In the eyes of the world, it is the same as the peak of Ziting, both are eight."
"However, if you enter the Five Paths from Ziting, your proportion will directly change from eight to sixteen... This process is not a gradual increase, it is discontinuous and jumps. Eight to sixteen The numbers in between have been omitted.”
"This is also what you ordinary ascetics say...the earth-shaking changes after entering a new realm."
The Dragon Hunter talked about his research findings over the years.
Ning Jiujiu asked: "Then why are two ascetics of the Purple Court Realm unable to defeat one of the Five Realms?"
The dragon bearer said: "Because the numbers of the ascetics do not follow the rules set by the ancestors of the magicians. They have their own calculation method, which was summarized by a person who was accused of deceiving the masters and destroying the ancestors thousands of years ago. "
Ning Jiujiu nodded gently. He looked at the world of stone city and everything put together by those small squares. He felt like he had entered a brand new world.
A world unique to the Three Realms of Legend.
No wonder the senior brother said that the five realms are the pinnacle of power. It is said that the three realms are not a breakthrough in strength and realm, but an improvement in the understanding of heaven and earth.
"Of course, these are relatively superficial things. This is my real research."
The dragon bearer stretched out his hand and formed a complicated hand seal.
A stone tablet appeared in front of me.
That stone tablet was densely covered with words.
Ning Jiujiu found that he knew each of these words and numbers, but he couldn't understand them at all.
Lu Marry was even more confused.
At this moment, they all had a thought - what should they do if they want to break this realm in the future.
Ning Jiujiu felt that the fifth senior brother could write five such studies, and they were all easy to understand. It really couldn't be simply described as powerful.
The dragon bearer looked at the stone tablet, and after pondering for a long time, he wrote a series of numbers at the end of the stone tablet.
After finishing writing, it seemed that his long-cherished wish came true, and a smile appeared on his face.
"gorgeous."
The dragon bearer looked at the symbol composed of a series of numbers and admired.
"It's so beautiful. Even if you can't understand it, you should be able to feel its beauty..."
“It’s so beautiful that you don’t suspect anything is wrong.”
He felt sincerely.
Hundreds of years of hard work are finally coming to an end.
Coincidentally, today is the day of his ascension.
"I will take this heavenly monument and fly away with this simulated stone city to the world before you arrived, and then I will become a real person and ascend again in that world..." said the dragon bearer: "You guys Standing at both ends of this stone city, you can leave with me."
Ning Jiujiu and Lu Jiaojian did not expect that things would go so smoothly.
Are you leaving now
Ning Changjiu felt a little uneasy.
However, the Dragon Hunters were much more powerful than them, and they had no other choice but to believe.
The dragon bearer's gray robes fluttered, and his body floated upwards, passing through the stone wall and reaching the top of the stone city.
He took the stone tablet and the entire stone city and flew into the sky.
The cultivators at the peak of the Five Paths ascended to the Three Realms of Legend.
Even in this day and age, it is extremely rare.
The dragon bearer took them flying high into the sky.
That is the real high altitude, beyond the barrier between the world and the sea of ruins.
The way of heaven opens in front of the dragon bearer.
Tiandao's inspection of the heavenly monument requires a process. He must first check whether it is repeated by practitioners of previous generations, and then confirm the completeness and authenticity of the content.
The process is not long, but the waiting is torture.
The sky monument passed the test.
The dragon bearer breathed a sigh of relief.
He is only one step away from great freedom.
The sky opens.
He stepped into it.
His figure entered half of the Xuhai.
The world suddenly became silent.
The hands and feet of the dragon-catcher, who had always been calm and composed, like an old scholar, suddenly started to dance wildly, like a drowning man grasping for straw.
This world is land, and the sea is water.
"How could this happen... How could this happen..."
"It's obviously so beautiful..."
"Impossible...impossible, why are you also..."
"Ahhh!"
The screams of the dragon bearer spread to this world from the sea of ruins.
He struggled hard and separated himself from that world.
His face had been deformed, it was just meat that had been cooked in boiling water, and the door was absorbing him. He clearly had reached the peak of his realm, but he had no strength to resist at all.
Ning Jiujiu and Lu Jiaojian didn't know what was happening outside.
They only saw the heart-rending shouts of the dragon bearer.
The shouting seemed empty and lonely in the cold high air.
"Don't ascend! Don't ascend! Don't...ah!"
At this moment, the dragon bearer finally remembered the most important words that the saint said to the demon clan and humans.
These four short words are the most severe warning.
He had scoffed before, but at the end of his life, he kept repeating these four words.
The words were loud and shrill.
Stopped abruptly.
Ning Jiujiu and Lu Jianjiao both heard it.
They sensed something was wrong.
But it was too late to escape.
Don't soar, don't soar... The words of the dragon bearer are still echoing in the sky and the earth, but the stone city has instantly collapsed from the center, and the huge force has smashed it in two completely different directions, like meteors flying across the sky in opposite directions. .
