This Is Exactly How Cultivation Works

Chapter 970: Fantasy invades, aura revives

Views:

The second node of the great changes in heaven and earth has arrived.

The changes first occurred in the fairyland. The sea of clouds spread and expanded, and the water clouds slowly spread out. Although the speed of diffusion was fast, it was orderly and there was no panic at all.

Under the gaze of Lu Bei and Qi Lijing, a lot of green appeared in the boundless white fairyland, and rugged rocks emerged from the ground and grew out of the sea of clouds.

The strange rocks grew taller and taller, and bigger and bigger, like giant trees in the sky or like a sea of sword-like bamboo mountains. Amid a faint buzzing sound, the towering rocks trembled and shook, and finally exploded with a bang, bursting into thousands of rays of light.

The rosy clouds and purple mist spread out, and an indescribable and majestic spiritual energy filled every corner of the fairyland. While accelerating the expansion of the fairyland, it also brought the primordial Qi that was indispensable for the immortals' practice.

When Lu Bei re-established the fairyland, Yuanshi Shangqi had already appeared in the fairy palace. The immortals spent some time collecting it for cultivation. Now the spiritual energy is rich, like the ordinary spiritual energy in the world. Every time you take a breath, it will circulate in the body on its own.

Practicing has become easier. The door above Changsheng opens, facing all the immortals in the Immortal Palace.

All the immortals were overjoyed and kowtowed to the Immortal Emperor of Daluo Heaven, who not only removed their names from the Shinto catalogue, but also granted them supreme freedom and bestowed them with the foundation for seeking the Tao, allowing them to go further on the path of cultivation.

The Immortal Emperor is compassionate, selfless and generous, and his mind is many times broader than Yinglong and Ji Huang.

Being able to serve such an Immortal Emperor is simply the blessing they have earned over several lifetimes. Recalling Yinglong and Ji Huang who used to be inhuman, the immortals feel that all the hard work has paid off and there are many more good days to come!

Huang Xiao was overjoyed. She couldn't let go of the furnace, partly because it was difficult for her to give up the Yuanshi Shangqi. Now the Yuanshi Shangqi was inexhaustible. Although it couldn't give as much as the furnace could give at one time, it was enough for daily practice.

Great, she finally has the face to see her daughter.

There are joys and sorrows. Zhu Xiushi opened the red window and looked up at the sky dejectedly. The world has changed. His good brother can't find an excuse anymore. Will he still have the nerve to come to her in the future

No, when my brother is in trouble, how can I just stand by and watch him have fun? I have to help him think of a good idea.

Lu Bei had no idea that he had inexplicably won over a group of people. He looked intently towards the Jianzhu Mountain Sea and saw that the surface of the strange rock was cracked and the spiritual milk and marrow fluid inside was misted and dispersed. Some of it formed the Yuanshi Shangqi, and some formed a sea of clouds and mist.

The strange rocks collapsed and piled up into undulating mountains. Clouds and mists were everywhere. When they met the mountains, they became trees. When they fell to the ground, they became rivers. As the fairyland slowly expanded, it was as if a landscape painting with thick ink and light brushstrokes was unfolding.

In places with rich spiritual energy, spiritual roots blessed by heaven and earth are born. They grow rapidly and produce fragrant spiritual fruits in just a few moments.

Seeing this, Lu Bei pointed his finger at the sword and knocked it down continuously. A stream of white light covered the spiritual root and lifted it up in the air and sent it to his private back garden.

Fairyland is just a rebirth, not a new life in the conceptual sense, so these spiritual roots are not among the innate ones. But even so, the acquired spiritual roots born in the fairyland are also rare treasures. Ordinary people can prolong their life and become immune to all diseases just by smelling them.

It would be a waste to let the fairies enjoy such a good thing. As the leader of the Heavenly Palace, he should accept it with a smile and summon the wings to hold a fairy fruit conference someday, and help them enhance their sisterly friendship.

She is always acting weird all the time, acting like a sister in front of people and a slave behind their backs. She is sarcastic and has no manners at all. It is really outrageous.

A hurricane came suddenly, and colorful clouds gathered above the fairyland. The five-colored sky sank and descended one by one according to the pattern of thirty-six heavens, completing the incompleteness of the fairyland to a great extent.

After Lu Bei defeated Tai Su, he obtained the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gate. This item is a relic of the fairyland and can also be regarded as an innate spiritual treasure. The Emperor of Heaven can control it freely with the seal.

He currently has mastered two methods of use. One is to merge with the current fairyland, hold the heavenly book, and control the life and death of all things in the fairyland; the other is to use it alone as an innate spiritual treasure, like Tai Su, hold the heavenly book and seal the will of heaven, stand on the top of the thirty-six heavens, and be invincible.

Lu Bei didn't think too much and decisively chose the second option. There were dangers everywhere, and the more cards the better, so it was wise to carry them with him.

As for the first way of using it, it also has unique advantages. The more perfect the fairyland is, the greater the power of the Heavenly Emperor's Seal will be, and the stronger the golden dragon that resides in it will be, which will be fed back to him, ensuring that he is able to leap across a major realm and fight against powerful golden immortals such as Tai Su and Qili Jing.

Affordable, but not necessary.

Just leave the challenge of higher-level opponents to the Phoenix and Kunpeng. If worst comes to worst, there’s still the invincible three-legged golden crow in single combat.

A ray of fairy light rises, illuminating the thirty-six heavens. In the fairyland, there is no such thing as the rising of the sun and the setting of the moon. This endless light of the day shines down through the numerous gates in the sky, forming an infinite fairy light that protects the immortals, keeps the mind clear, and is of great benefit to spiritual practice.

Bathing in this fairy light for a long time can also provide a halo buff that can clear your mind and awaken your mind against the pervasive evil thoughts of the demons from outside the domain.

The continuous self-improvement of the fairyland has caused Lu Bei's magic power to surge. As the acting Emperor of Heaven, he is bound to the fairyland through the Emperor of Heaven's Seal. Their prosperity and adversity are shared. His realm has also increased significantly. With just a slight effort, he can break through the bottleneck and reach the Golden Immortal realm.

He did not do it on purpose. Although a breakthrough is a good thing, it is more important to accumulate foundation. Compared with other invincible people in their lifetime, his practice time is too short and his foundation is the least solid. If he has a choice, he would rather consolidate his foundation.

At this time, if Lu Bei still held the personal panel, he would be able to see that the basic attributes were growing at an alarming rate.

Suddenly, Lu Bei let out a light exclamation, held up the Heavenly Emperor's seal with his five fingers, and his eyes pierced through the thirty-six layers of the sky, locking onto Taifu, the chief engineer of the fairyland's rebirth.

If you have made contributions, you should be rewarded!

A finger fell, like a huge rock hitting the water, and the stable fairyland space was filled with material ripples.

The surging immortal light shone down from the sky, gathering around the master's body, surrounding her body, and setting off her white jade skin to glow. She looked at the extra mark in her body in horror, suspecting that the dead ghost had crossed the river and destroyed the bridge, and wrote her name on the Conferred God List.

However, it did not happen. Lu Bei had a feeling and, guided by the new fairyland, tried to confer a higher title on the tutor and grant him a divine position.

"As expected, the five great immortals are also gods, and are under the control of the Great Celestial Venerable."

Lu Bei murmured, and glanced at the Qili Sutra which was used to deduce the immortal destiny. He sneered in his heart, "What a good worker! This Heavenly Emperor has decreed that you must have a place on the List of Gods."

Lu Bei had some guesses about how the Great Celestial Venerable controlled the five great immortals. It was probably a prop similar to the Investiture of the Gods. The prop was not important. What was important was that the prop was recognized by the Heavenly Dao. Once the name was written into it, the soul would automatically bind to the immortal realm. Once you were the dog of the Great Celestial Venerable, you would be the dog of the Great Celestial Venerable for the rest of your life.

The Five Immortal Lords are the five main gods of the fairyland. Each of them holds a catalog of gods and has his own pantheon. They command all beings in the three realms on behalf of the Great Celestial Lord. Together, they constitute the Fairyland Group Enterprise, which has many platforms and business units under its name and monopolizes all high-end industries in the three realms.

As a result, the status of the five great immortals dropped suddenly, and they went from being high-ranking immortals to high-level workers. Lu Bei felt that the Northern Xuanzun Dao Sutra that he was practicing was no longer interesting.

The acting Heavenly Emperor is also the Heavenly Emperor, and the next level is the Great Heavenly Venerable. Either don’t have it, or get the best. It doesn’t matter what level the Xuanzun Da Dao Sutra is, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t practice it.

Holding the seal of the Emperor of Heaven, Lu Bei had a mature understanding of the composition of the fairyland, overturning his previous speculations. Looking at the likes of Yunzuoyu, he exclaimed that the unlucky guy was being plotted against.

If nothing unexpected happens, once the Great Celestial Lord appears in the world, Huangquan, as one of the three realms, will definitely be under the full control of the Great Celestial Lord.

The Five Great Immortals are the pinnacle of the immortals' struggles, and can be said to be the end point that immortal practitioners can reach, but whether they will be hired or not, and whether they will be expelled after being hired, are all decided by the Great Celestial Venerable.

Xiaoyun, you have been busy for so many years, but you can't escape your fate after all. You have changed from a dog to a decent dog.

Lu Bei mocked Yun Zuoyu for being an unlucky guy, but then he thought, no matter how badly Yun Zuoyu was doing, his basic situation was already stable. Unlike him, his future was uncertain and he was walking on a tightrope on a cliff. It was still unclear what his future would be like.

The Investiture of the Gods!

Golden light flickered in Lu Bei's eyes. This was probably his only hope for a comeback. With this precious treasure and a careful plan, he would be fully capable of perishing together with all the invincibles in his lifetime.

But first, he has to find these invincible people and bring them down.

The Three Realms are one, and the great changes in heaven and earth involve every corner of the Three Realms, starting from the fairyland and affecting the human world and the underworld.

On earth, there are also strange rocks rising from the ground that look like those in fairyland. Some are located in the wilderness, some are located in cities or mountain villages, and even worse, some are located in paradise, breaking through the mountain protection formation at the gate of a mountain for spiritual practice.

The rosy glow dispersed, the spiritual energy turned into mist and dissipated, and the innate qi that had disappeared for countless years returned.

Red desert.

Two figures, one old and one young, looked at the strange rock standing in front of them. The young man took two steps back and said with a serious face: "Master, don't panic. I am here. With me here, no one can hurt you!"

"Feng'er has a heart, so why are you standing behind your master?"

"Prevent the thieves from attacking from behind and catching you off guard, Master."

"The teacher has eyes behind him. Stand in front of him and don't block his sight."

Kou Shuang stroked his goatee, becoming more and more dissatisfied with his unfilial disciple. He didn't realize it in his early years, but this disciple was a rebellious person from head to toe.

The old man Kou Shuang is the uncle of the Taifu in Yunzhong Pavilion. In his early years, Bu Tian lost his mind and his soul was split into two. One was crazy and mad, and the other gave up Taoism and became a demon. Although he was not crazy, he was almost the same.

The half who abandoned Taoism and turned to evil was tied up by the Grand Tutor and imprisoned in Yunzhong Pavilion, while the other half hid here and there. He was proficient in divination and was best at escaping. Yunzhong Pavilion tried for many years but couldn't find him.

The old man accepted a disciple who was reincarnated as an immortal, a player with the ID name "Tornado Destroys Your Parking Lot". The name was too long, so it was abbreviated as Tornado, and Kou Shuang called him Feng'er.

In the early years, Tornado worshipped the hermit master as his teacher, and was complacent with himself. He went online every day to accompany Kou Shuang in hiding from the evildoers. After a long time, he found out that the hermit master and the old psychopath did not conflict with each other. He was lucky and met them all.

Tornado was reluctant to give up his account. He had practiced hard for a year and a half, so how could he just give it up? He tried different ways to escape from Kou Shuang, but was always caught by him.

After this happened too many times, he just gave up and his respect for his master was no longer as great as before.

What's wrong with being filial? Are you unhappy? Just expel me from your sect!

Snap!

The strange rock cracked and spiritual light and energy dispersed in an instant at such a fast speed that it was impossible to guard against.

Oh no, it’s a trap!

Kou Shuang's eyes lit up, he reached out and grabbed Tornado's collar, and used his fingers like a sword to cut through the space, trying to escape from here.

The void that could be broken with a wave of the hand in the past was as hard as a rock today. Kou Shuang was careless for a moment and failed to escape into the void successfully. By the time he reacted, the shock wave transformed from spiritual light and spiritual energy passed through his body and spread to the entire small demon domain's sand sea.

"Master, Master..."

Tornado swallowed his saliva, raised his hand and touched his body. The leather tube was still there, nothing more or less.

Moreover, my ears and eyes are sharp, my mind is extremely clear, and I feel that not sleeping for ten days or half a month is no big deal.

Kou Shuang said nothing, but looked around in horror. The place where the master and disciple were standing should have been a barren desert, but now it was full of green. A peach tree took root and sprouted in front of them, and quickly produced tempting fruits.

"Master, what's the point of eating!"

Tornado grabbed the bright red peach, rubbed it on his sleeve, and relying on his immortal body, he ate it clean.

Pure spiritual energy entered his body, as if he had eaten ginseng fruit. Every pore on his body was emitting joy. His main professional experience bar increased rapidly, rising three levels in one breath.

"Fuck, this is a peach."

The tornado was overjoyed and hugged the peach tree and started to eat it.

"Get out of the way, you don't know anything. If the poison doesn't kill you, you'll be dead from starvation!"

Kou Shuang pushed the tornado away with a slap, took out a gray porcelain bottle, and took away the spiritual root to keep it close to him.

Turning around, he saw that the disciple had a respectful look on his face. He regained his original intention and became the good boy who asked the question sincerely.

I wouldn't believe you!

Kou Shuang stroked his goatee and looked around. The sand dunes had turned into hills, and there was vitality and greenery everywhere. Although there was no dense forest that had been formed for thousands of years, the vast desert was no longer the barren land it once was.

Take a breath, and the rich spiritual energy flows into the chest through the nasal cavity, and then spreads to the limbs and bones, making you feel refreshed.

It is no longer appropriate to call this place the Little Demon Realm.

After a while, Kou Shuang checked himself and accepted the result that it was a blessing rather than a curse. He looked at the thin layer of green grass on the hill and marveled.

Suddenly, his pupils shrank, and without thinking, he formed his fingers into a sword and swung it diagonally forward.

The two sword intentions of Shenxiao and Jiangque were running in parallel, the clanging of swords was like thunder, a cold air spread, the sword light shot up into the sky, and then swooped down like a waterfall.

One is two, two is four, four is eight…

In the blink of an eye, thousands of swords burst out with terrifyingly brilliant light, shooting across the sky, splitting the air with a hissing sound. Each sword light had the power to pierce through clouds and split rocks.

Boom—

The air was filled with smoke and dust, which rose up in the air, and blew up dirt and grass everywhere.

"Master, have you been poisoned? Your sword moves today are not as powerful as usual."

Tornado was suspicious, and then he counted with his fingers and said in a mysterious way, "I see. There was something wrong with the chicken we stole yesterday. I told you not to eat the chicken butt, but you refused to listen. Now your cultivation and magic power have dropped drastically. I don't know how many years it will take to recover."

"Silly boy, it's obvious that your strength has greatly increased."

Kou Shuang looked up at the sky and sighed, "Just wait and see. After today, this world will no longer be the same as before."

"Master..."

"No more talking. Follow me. It's time to return to the mountain gate."

"ah?!"

A string of question marks floated across Tornado's mind. What the hell? This old guy also has a mountain gate. You... you are not a casual cultivator

Kou Shuang counted on his fingers, shook his head, and said cheerfully, as if he were crazy or wise, "Lucky, very lucky, a noble person has appeared in the mountain gate, so noble that it is beyond words. If one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit. We will have a good life in the future."

Kunlun Mountains, the ancestral land of Daxia.

Emperor Ji climbed to a high place and looked around the world. He closed his eyes and sensed the surge of spiritual energy in various parts of the human race. A hint of relief appeared on his cold face.

In the past two years, Ji Huang has been unlucky, and it seems like Wang Xiaoer's New Year is getting worse with each passing year.

He first lost his seventh, eighth, and ninth incarnations, and then lost his Jade Emperor incarnation and handed over the Immortal Palace to Lu Bei. He also packed up his family business accumulated over the years, along with hundreds of perfect immortals and gave them away.

Later, his plan went wrong again, and the fourth incarnation of the Yellow Springs Realm, the Human Emperor Dao Master Ji Fa, was captured by Yun Zuoyu and became the opponent's pawn.

After years of planning, half of it was exposed, and almost all of it benefited Lu Bei.

Seeing Lu Bei picking up ready-made things and rising to become the almighty Heavenly Emperor, only one step away from becoming the Great Celestial Venerable, Emperor Ji wanted to die.

He could accept his own bad luck, but he could not accept Lu Bei's good luck.

If it weren't for Yinglong's support, Emperor Ji was really afraid that his heart of Tao would be distorted by jealousy. Fortunately, the other half's preparation was not in vain. The second great change in heaven and earth came, and his era was about to begin.

The overall strength of human cultivators has increased, and the structure of various countries will inevitably be reshuffled. At this time when the Heavenly Dao returns, the former Great Xia will also return.

The reborn Da Xia holds the Kunlun Dragon Vein and the Golden Dragon of humanity's destiny. He is the Human Emperor who destroyed and then rebuilt, and his cultivation will far surpass that of his ancestors.

but…

Ji Huang looked up at the sky. If he wanted to become an immortal, he had to convince the almighty Emperor of Heaven.

The question is, how can we impress Lu Bei

Beauty

I'm afraid this trick is useless now.

In the mortal world, in all human countries and even in all demon countries, from east to west and from south to north, countless cultivators have seen their magic powers soar and their cultivation advance greatly because of the spiritual energy entering their bodies.

It's fine for ordinary cultivators. They go into seclusion to consolidate their realm and get familiar with the new world of cultivation. Everything is peaceful and fine.

The cultivators who are in the tribulation period are in a miserable situation, just like Kou Shuang, who has not yet become familiar with the new world. If they fail to escape, they will be blocked by the tribulation and forced to face the baptism of the tribulation in a hurry.

There were evil thoughts attacking and thunder rolling in the sky. For a time, all the paradises in the world of immortal cultivation were filled with grief and sorrow.

Soon, these monks in the Tribulation Crossing stage discovered that God was showing mercy today and the difficulty of the heavenly tribulation was far less than in the past. Even if they were not well prepared, they could still survive with the existing cards in their hands.

The heavenly tribulation has become weaker!

Many cultivators were shocked by the changes. They wondered how long such benefits would last, whether they would only exist now or remain constant in the long run. They were worried that if they missed this opportunity, they would never get it again. The world of immortal cultivation was filled with thunder and lightning, and a craze for overcoming the tribulation was approaching.

The cultivators who have been stuck in the fusion stage for many years benefit the most. When their lifespan is about to end, they will be revived by the spiritual energy, and their lifespan will increase greatly after they survive the heavenly tribulation. It can be said that they have escaped a disaster before the gates of hell.

As for those unfortunate ones who had not survived the heavenly calamity, some were reduced to ashes on the spot, some were lucky enough to become earthly immortals, and some even closed their eyes and opened them again, finding themselves in a world they had never seen before.

Once entering this world, the soul will have its own senses. The Yellow Springs and the underworld are the afterlife corresponding to the living.

On this day, the concept of ghosts appeared again in the underworld.

The laws of the Yellow Spring Realm changed drastically, and the acting Yellow Spring Ghost Emperor Yun Zuoyu was in a panic. He created many clones and summoned a group of perfect immortals from the Yellow Spring Realm to temporarily build the framework of the underworld and hurriedly took office.

In the Black Sacred Mountain, in the Ksitigarbha Hall, the Eclipse Buddha puts his hands together, and on the left and right sides, Feng Wu and Gu Xun are in charge of listening, waiting for the ghosts to arrive.

The heaven and earth are undergoing great changes, and the three realms are being reborn. Although it has not yet been completed, everywhere is filled with vibrant scenes of all things competing to flourish.

The Mahayana monks in the world today are still not immortals, the clouds and rain in the underworld are not the Ghost Emperor, and the Eclipse Demon Buddha is not Ksitigarbha. The way of heaven is not yet perfect, and their existence cannot be recognized.

Similarly, the Western religion in the far west, that paradise is still just an illusion.

The second node of the great changes in heaven and earth brought about the rebirth of order in the Three Realms, but it merely filled in the gaps and applied a few patches, which was far from restoring the former glory.

It’s a good thing. Even people who practice cultivation cannot bear it. The great changes in heaven and earth are too drastic, which is a tragedy for everyone.

Not to mention the distant future, just the fact that the world of immortal cultivation is becoming more and more stable will require a long time to adapt.

The void that used to allow high-level cultivators to travel freely is now full of obstacles. Even capturing the existence of the void from a distance is extremely difficult, and many spells need to be modified.

For the players, this great change in the world is undoubtedly bad news. The emergence of the innate Qi has completed the foundation of the immortal cultivators. Now that everyone has the innate Qi, the advantage of players in challenging opponents of higher levels will be greatly reduced.

Reincarnated immortals and the like suddenly don’t seem so appealing anymore.

In other words, Lu Bei came early. If he was born a few years later, at least half of the wings would be lost.

The fourth disaster city.

A section of jagged rock rose from the ground, pushing apart the players who were fighting each other. They poked their heads out, agreed to a truce, and gathered together to join in the fun.

"What a weird wind that just blew, it made me feel refreshed, and I feel like I can work all night again tonight."

"It can't hold any more. I'm full. Ah, it's overflowing."

"What the hell, the boil on the mother of Kyushu Continent has burst?"

"Hey, can you stop being so disgusting? Your boil looks like this. From a scientific point of view, it should be an alien invasion."

"Is the official doing something new?"

"There's news on the forum. This kind of thing is everywhere. It seems to be some kind of spiritual energy revival or something like that."

"The spiritual energy in the Xiuxian world can still be revived. There is already enough spiritual energy. If it is revived again, can it be upgraded to the fairyland?"

"That would be great. I will become an immortal right now and a heavenly master in the future."

"Look at the panel, I've leveled up, and my experience is increasing!"

"No way! I was trying to level up, and I haven't practiced the corresponding skills yet. Suddenly I'm upgraded. What's the point of playing without my skills?"

"… "

The players gathered together in a noisy atmosphere, some were happy and some were sad. Generally speaking, most people were happy as they thought they would not waste the free experience.

"I understand. This is called times make heroes. We are indeed the saviors!"

Jiang Zhiya jumped onto the strange rock and used magic to amplify his voice to promote his Northern Expedition Alliance: "Today, I met with several union leaders to discuss how to defeat the Great Demon King. As soon as I finished speaking, God gave us an opportunity. What does this mean?"

"You think too much."

"Bah, who is talking nonsense there? Which union are you from?"

Jiang Zhiya was furious. He snorted twice and continued, "This proves that my analysis was correct. The Demon King is the big boss. If we defeat him, we will complete the game."

"A new instance has been opened?"

"It should be the main storyline of version 4.0. With our current level, it would be useless even if we went to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Monsters. We can't even defeat the Monster Girl, let alone the Monster King."

"How hateful! If I had not been penniless, how could I have allowed the witch to poison the Demon King? I will break into this hell of lust and evil no matter what!"

"Who isn't? My sword is not bad either."

The players are making a lot of noise, unaware that their advantage is getting weaker day by day. If they want to skip levels and gain experience in the future, it will be impossible unless they form a full team and go out in force.

But it’s not that there is no good news at all. For example, the players’ base camp, Blue Star, has also received its second wave of spiritual energy baptism.

The craze sweeping across the world of immortal cultivation followed the spiritual connections of the players, went straight to Blue Star, and spread outward from the game cabin, first purifying the players' bodies and then changing the surrounding environment bit by bit.

Ordinary people, including the player himself, have average observation skills and are not aware of the drastic changes in their surroundings.

Only when they themselves mutate, and their spiritual energy revives to attract the arrival of transcendent beings, and they use the magic of the immortal world on Blue Star, will they understand what kind of transformation they are experiencing.

Ordinary people did not understand the reason, but the big forces who had paid attention to it early on became alert at the first moment.

In Longxia Country, a special department which is nominally affiliated with the Ministry of Information Security but is actually independent, the phone rang one after another. The operators were so busy that their tongues were spinning and they didn't have time to upload any information.

The Virtual Game Anti-Addiction Technology Investigation Department, referred to as the Virtual Investigation Department by its own people, was established one year ago, corresponding to the last major change in the world.

This department, which brings together the military elite, has only one investigation object, the virtual game [Jiuzhou Continent]. Everyone from the official operating team to the development team, as well as the players who log in to the game, are within the scope of the investigation.

The initial investigation soon yielded some results. It was discovered that the game's operating team was hired from outside and knew nothing about the boss from top to bottom. The development team was even worse. They knew nothing about anything and didn't even know where the backdoor in the program was.

From the server to the maintenance personnel, everyone seemed to be in a trance. They had no idea what they were doing. They clocked in and out at work every day and left on time. However, they did not realize that there was anything wrong with them. It was like they were collectively hypnotized.

The Virtual Investigation Department once tried to remove the game from the platform, but the platform did not have the authority. [Jiuzhou Continent] took root like a virus. Even if the terminal entrance was abandoned, some players still connected mentally and entered the game interface directly.

The Virtual Investigation Department conducted many tests on [Jiuzhou Continent] and finally concluded that it cannot be deleted or removed from the shelves. The impact of this game on the world is continuous and cannot be interrupted.

Fantasy invasion

No, if the world on the other side is illusory, everything would be fine. However, all the evidence shows that Kyushu Continent is a real world.

Oh my god, that is a world where one can achieve immortality through cultivation and where there is a heavenly order.

Who created this game that brought two incompatible worlds together

It's better to say that it's out of place. At least the fairy-tale elements have a large base audience in Longxia Country. In comparison, they are more likely to accept the game settings than those countries influenced by Western culture.

Good news: Our spiritual energy is recovering the fastest, and none of them can catch up.

Bad news: Our spiritual energy is recovering the fastest, and none of them can catch up.

As we all know, the first person to try something new gets the most benefits. Similarly, the first person to cross the river by feeling the stones may fall and drown if he is not careful, and the ones behind him will be finished.

Being number one has its advantages and disadvantages, and the same is true for being number two. Both the positive and negative logics make sense.

The Virtual Investigation Department has been under tremendous pressure over the past year, and today it has reached the breaking point where everyone is overwhelmed.

In the conference room.

The man codenamed 'Lao Wang' was listening to a report from a technical staff member. The projection screen in front of him was divided into nine grids, with exit windows and drop-down bars densely packed together.

These images are either surveillance or those of players trained by the Virtual Investigation Department themselves. There are also some cats, dogs, and even lions, tigers, wild animals, plants, and insects, all of which are samples for observation.

"No need to look, just tell me, how is this change compared to the last time... What is the result?"

"Minister, the results of this change have not yet appeared. We can only say that the changes in the cultivation world of Jiuzhou Continent occurred first, and then Blue Star was affected. The two sides are not synchronized, and there is a certain delay here."

"The delay of the player's network cable?"

"You could say that."

"… "

Lao Wang was silent for a while: "Where is the analysis report? What changes are predicted?"

"Beasts are born with intelligence. They are getting smarter day by day, especially the players' pets. They are closest to the target and change the fastest."

The technician clicked on the projection and used the data to speak: "After the first change, the players' physical fitness has increased to varying degrees. Athletes from abroad have broken records one after another. It is expected that after the second change, physical fitness will increase again, and some superhumans will be born."

Lao Wang had a headache after hearing this. He waved his hand and said, "Stop talking. Just upload the report. Remember to keep it brief. The people above are more anxious than I am. Don't exaggerate the predicted results, and don't exaggerate all the positives."

"clear."

The technician nodded and began to streamline the report documents.

No one knows what the future will be like, they can only speculate based on the data, and as for the results... even if they try their best to polish it, the impact is still horrifying.

The revival of spiritual energy came too quickly and too suddenly, beyond everyone's expectations. No one had ever thought of a similar incident happening, and there was no corresponding solution.

The worst-case scenario predicted is that the immortal world will descend on Blue Planet, and demons and monsters will run rampant, causing chaos all over the world.

Aliens can still fight when they fall from the sky, gods...

If he calls me, would I dare to answer

The top priority at present is to stabilize social order and ensure that the foundation of the country is not affected before chaos comes.

Lao Wang lit a cigarette and rubbed his temple because of the headache. His assistant brought him three mobile phones, each of which was a big shot he had to meet.

"If you don't have time, just say I'm busy."

Old Wang puffed out a cigarette, his usual vigor and vitality was now very weak. He smoked one cigarette after another, took the document handed to him by his assistant, and after reading it, he frowned and asked, "Have the special forces teams in various places been formed?"

"All members are from the tactical team, and they are equipped with accounts purchased at high prices. There are also new accounts started from scratch to prevent the mental and game accounts from matching."

"What about this..."

Lao Wang pointed to a thick stack of files and asked, "Can these people be recruited?"

"They have clean backgrounds, are at a high level in the game, and are all law-abiding people."

The assistant briefly explained the selection criteria, and then said, "But according to the prediction of the technical department, the sudden power will affect their spirits, and it will be difficult for them to remain calm. Instead of expanding externally, it is better for us to train superhumans ourselves."

"To put it simply, this game is about hard work, not pay-to-win. It takes time."

Lao Wang put out his cigarette, flipped through the files aimlessly, and looked at the young faces with an embarrassed expression: "It's not that I don't trust these young people, but people's hearts are fickle. Once people gain power, they often go against their original intentions and live the life they hate the most."

"Minister, do you mean to abandon this plan and switch to comprehensive supervision instead, and no longer expand externally?"

"We still need to expand our forces, but we can't just put them together with our own people and set up a non-staff special forces team. In the future..."

Old Wang seemed to have made a major decision, and said calmly: "I am the highest commander of this team. While there is still time, recruit all of them to the capital. You can use any reason, but you must do it as soon as possible."

"Minister, you still have to take charge of the overall situation. Can you handle it?"

"I won't do that again. Once that report is submitted, three or five guys at the same level as me will definitely be transferred here." Lao Wang was not annoyed. He even seemed to be wishing for it. The matter was too big and he really couldn't handle it alone.

After the assistant left, Lao Wang carefully looked through the files again, writing down each person's name, face, and family background.

"Huh? Huh! Huh—"

Old Wang opened his eyes wide and looked at his daughter's photo and file in horror. After a while, he tremblingly lit a cigarette.

"A disciple of Lu Bei of the Tianjian Sect, ID: Xiao Fengxian..."

"The leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the second generation Immortal Sword Master, the second generation Demon King, the first generation Demon King, the leader of the Yuhua Sect of the Sanqing Peak, the great swordsman Zhao Qin..."

"Invincible in this lifetime, the strongest in the world, practiced for 11,000 years, a demon, his true form is unknown, could be a golden-winged roc, or a three-legged golden crow..."

"You little bastard, what kind of master did you choose?"

Fairyland, heavenly palace.

Qi Li Jing held on to the deduction of the Immortal Fate Plate, but failed to find the whereabouts of several invincible people in this life. He also searched for the world that was about to border the world of immortal cultivation, but was still in the fog and could not find the entrance or exit.

It is not enough. I am afraid it will have to wait until the next major change in the world for it to appear.

Lu Bei was also trying to deduce and find the traces of several invincible beings. After a while, he stopped his useless work and said to Qi Lijing, "Old Sect Master, I have made a lot of progress and have discovered the existence of an invincible being. How are you doing?"

"There is something to be gained from giving up something."

Qi Lijing said cheerfully: "Young Sect Master, please tell me first that you are the Great Celestial Lord, and your status is noble. How can I, Qi, take precedence over you?"

"If you don't have the most outstanding achievements, don't you still have the opportunity to create something new? Old Sect Master, don't underestimate yourself. This brick of yours can create quite a few splashes."

"No, no, let's go first, Young Master. You say one, and I will say another. How do you think?"

"I'm just saying it, it's like I can't figure it out."

Lu Bei coughed twice, cleared his throat, waved his hand and opened the map of Kyushu Continent in mid-air, pointed at the Red Desert and said, "Here, there is a person with an invincible aura, very close to the exit of Huangquan Wanzhangtian. If I'm not mistaken, he is the one that Yun Zuoyu mentioned."

There is indeed something!

Qi Lijing's eyes lit up, and he was even more satisfied with his ally. He smiled slightly and said, "Young Master is very scheming, and you really guessed it right. Unfortunately, you are too late. Qi has been to the Small Demon Realm before, but he has already left. He is now on the Fairy Island in the East China Sea."

"East Sea Fairy Island?"

Lu Bei looked at the map and frowned when he saw the Immortal Continent.

There is an invincible person in this damn place, how come the God of Creation doesn't know about it

Could it be that I've been plotted against again

"Young Master, go a little further east."

Further east is the sea!

Lu Bei enlarged the map of the surrounding area of the Immortal Mansion Continent and saw that it was covered in clouds and mist, and there were indeed a few places that were hazy and shrouded by the magical powers of "outside the three realms".

Quite interesting!

The last time the world changed drastically, the fog that shrouded the Xianfu Continent gradually disappeared. Until now, the Xianfu Continent has appeared in the eyes of the human cultivators, and the first country to come into contact with them was Xiong Chu.

Compared with the abundant resources of the Jiuzhou Continent, the Xianfu Continent is just a beggar, and it is extremely corrupt internally. After coming into contact with Xiong Chu, several Mahayana cultivators were thinking about moving their mountain gates to Xiong Chu and settling down there.

The two parties hit it off and the relocation is underway.

The fog that shrouded the Xianfu Continent disappeared, but the fairy island deep in the East China Sea has yet to reveal its true appearance. This can only mean that there is indeed an invincible hiding here.

As expected, it is the reincarnation of the Great Celestial Lord in the flesh, there is really something special about it!

Lu Bei raised his eyebrows and was about to team up with Qi Lijing to find out what was going on. The latter shook his head slightly and told Lu Bei to strike while the iron was hot and advance to the Golden Immortal realm first.

The Qili Sutra did not explain Minglue's message, nor did it say that there was another invincible person on the five immortal islands in the East China Sea. In order to make his allies loyal to him and not defect to other families, he took great pains.

"In that case, the old sect master will go to the Tianjian Sect and wait for a while. I will go to find you after three days of seclusion."

"Young Sect Master, this is so unreasonable. I'm already at your doorstep, so why don't you invite me in to sit down?"

"The guest follows the host's wishes, old sect master, just follow my arrangements."

Lu Bei waved his hand, holding the seal of the Emperor of Heaven tightly in his hand, and passed by Qi Lijing like a brick. The latter retreated again and again, and seeing that there was no way to enter, he could only return to the human world to have fun.

Go to Zhaoqin, where there is another disciple of Lu Bei. Tell the other party that the master has been coveting her for a long time and the subsequent development will definitely be very interesting.

Then go to Kunlun Mountains again and inform the Human Emperor of the information about the Demon King.

If you do the math, three days is a very tight schedule and we can’t delay any further.

Looking at the sneaky figure of Qilijing Gougou, Lu Bei spit fiercely on the ground: "Bah, shameless, wait and see how I deal with you someday."

"Young Master, who is so hateful that he could make you unhappy?"

Discard the warp probe.

"Talk about dog!"

Lu Bei waved his hand, but he didn't expect Qi Lijing's sudden counterattack. He disappeared with two grunts.

Bang!

Lu Bei kicked open the door of the meditation room. Huang Xiao, who was practicing, turned pale. She said with shame and anger: "Your Majesty, what is your excuse this time?"

"There is an invincible person who is about to be born on the overseas fairy island. His strength is far greater than Tai Su and is almost the same as Qi Li Jing. Brother Xiao, help me, otherwise..."

"roll!"

"… "

Lu Bei blinked and saw that Huang Xiao was indeed furious. He was already feeling guilty and could not look into those grief-stricken eyes, so he lowered his head and was about to leave.

“Get in here!”

"Hey, Brother Xiao, you're so nice. I'm coming in now."

"Shut up, fix it quickly, and get out of here when you're done!"
