Chapter 137 After Ascension
After listening to the narration of the person in charge of Tianqiong Technology Center, the participants' eyes focused on the forum posts that slowly slid down the light screen.
This analysis shocked them extremely and was an angle they had never imagined.
The genuine Dark Place and the secretly spread cracked version are likely to be two games.
If this hypothesis is true, it can be understood that the netizens in this post have obvious differences in opinions, and they all think that the other party is a troll.
The most important thing is that neither game produces information to the outside world.
As a result, the two games cannot be compared at all, and there are obvious differences in cognition.
From the perspective of a normal player, they obviously don’t think there is anything wrong with the dark place they play.
Genuine players are eligible to snap up the game through official channels, while the game content experienced by players with the cracked version is enough to prove the authenticity of the game, and they will not doubt that there is any problem with the game.
"Are there any players who are qualified to buy the cracked version and still have the qualifications for the genuine Dark Land game?"
Bai Chen, who was standing on the podium, asked in a deep voice.
Faced with the inquiry, the participants turned around and asked their teams.
After a long time, no one gave an answer.
Bai Chen saw this and fell into thinking.
This proves that no player has been found to have both Dark Land and the cracked version of Dark Land downloaded from the link.
Thinking about it carefully, the probability of owning two games at the same time is very low.
The human race has a population of 2 billion. After five rounds of rush-buying, there are less than 4 million players who own the genuine Dark Land. This means that the number of players who own the game accounts for less than one fifth of the total population.
It is unclear how many qualifications have been issued for the cracked version of Dark Land, but the number is obviously far lower than the qualifications for the genuine version.
Assuming that the distribution quantity is 50,000, the probability that a player has both the genuine game and the cracked version of the game is one in 20 million.
There is one inevitable factor that has not been calculated here.
That is, when players who own the genuine Dark Land see the link to the cracked version, they cannot even click on it to download it.
Thinking of this, Bai Chen suddenly looked up at a person in the team behind him and asked:
"Director Li, how many more of the 500 places the Lunar Eclipse clan gave us last time are there?"
"Chairman, all have been distributed to major institutions, and all qualifications have been activated."
Hearing this, Bai Chen felt helpless, then turned to look at the participants and said in a deep voice:
"This is an issue that we need to focus on. We must find out as soon as possible whether Dark Land and Dark Land cracked version are the same game, or two completely different games. Representatives will talk to the players of the two games after they go back. Contrast, today’s meeting ends here.”
"By the way, allocate a batch of funds to Tianqiong Technology Center to collect as many game coins as possible for the cracked version of Dark Land to prepare for emergencies. No matter whether management Xiao's guess is the truth or not, as long as there is a possibility, we will You must prepare in advance to avoid being caught off guard.”

Yuanchu Altar.
Qi Sheng looked away from the human race parliament hall.
In fact, he didn't care what the higher-ups of the human race thought.
After receiving feedback from the guide, he turned his attention to the Evil Moon Domain to the north of the Colorful Mist Coast.
The domain of the waning moon level is still in the waning moon state after the last round of moon phase switching.
The island illuminated by the evil moon was shrouded in a layer of haze, and the island was covered with twisted and entangled corrosive cores.
The ocean surrounding the island has also been eroded by the energy of the Kuroshio, and countless underwater evil spirits can be seen swimming quickly under the bloody sea level.
Qi Sheng's sight followed the guidance and landed on the domain node in the center of the island.
I saw that the pitch-black material was continuously absorbing the material in the evil moon space, rapidly conglomerating, and extending upward.
"Is this a new evil spirit coming?"
[Boss, this is condensing the Evil Eye Tower. If nothing else goes wrong, an Evil Haunting Tower will be born in the Evil Moon Domain, and new evil spirit warriors and evil eyes will arrive. 】
[But this time we have a first-mover advantage. If what comes is really a low-level intelligent evil spirit, it is obviously not a problem to easily take it down with the current strength of the player army. When the time comes, we will take the initiative to kill it in the cradle. 】
[I even suspect that after the evil spirits are born, there is no need for us to take action. The nearby sea forces will take the lead, such as the ancient gods. They obviously will not sit back and watch the black tide develop and grow near their territory and pose a threat to themselves, so there is no need to worry about the new life. Evil spirits will pose a real threat to the Aigamo Coast area. 】
After listening to the guide's explanation, Qi Sheng nodded.
The blockade of the Tizuka Mountains area was already a headache, but he didn't want the path to the sea from the Ayagiri Coast area to be blocked by the Kuroshio Current.
But as the guide said, next door to the Evil Moon Domain is the Ghost Sea Domain.
That is the territory of the Ancient God Clan. If the Kuroshio really wants to expand, the first thing it must face is the suppression of the Ancient God Clan.
He doesn't need to worry about this problem at all.
Just when Qi Sheng wanted to observe in depth the process of the arrival of the evil spirit warriors, he received feedback from the guide again, and his vision switched to the player's perspective.
……
Colorful fog coast, Cangxing sea area.
Neverland.
It stands on a small island in the vast sea. It has lush vegetation, including towering ancient trees and low clusters of colorful flowers and plants. The air is filled with the faint fragrance of plants.
A bonfire was set up on the beach in front of the cliff of the island.
Yu used an iron skewer to thread a silvertail fish and grilled it over the fire. The aroma was fragrant.
In the undulating waves not far in front of him, there were 27 silvertails waiting.
These are all good brothers who have been with him through life and death.
On the journey from the Colorful Mist Coast to Neverland, without this group of good brothers desperately escorting him, he would not have been able to get here and would have died.
"It's so easy to control the life soul."
Looking at the sizzling silvertail fish, Yu Yuan turned the iron skewer to turn it over and couldn't help but sigh.
The good thing is that monsters can protect him in battle when under control, and can be used to satisfy his hunger when he is weak.
For example, the silvertail fish in my hand, after fighting all the way to Neverland, was so exhausted that I rolled my eyes and entered a dying state. It would not be long before it died.
Seeing his good brother in such pain, he decisively helped him escape.
Squeeze out the last value and turn it into a delicious grilled fish, and your life will be sublimated.
Sprinkling the seasoning purchased at the trading house, he brought the grilled whitetail to his mouth, blew away the heat radiating from the surface of the fish, and took a big bite.
The delicate and silky texture of the fish melts on the tip of the tongue with a gentle sip, and the juice is released, like a spring drizzle, gently moisturizing every corner of the mouth.
Immediately afterwards, the rich fish aroma exploded in the mouth, with freshness and sweetness, mixed with the mild flavor of herbs and garlic, which perfectly blended with the deliciousness of the fish itself. It did not overwhelm the meal, but also appropriately enhanced the overall taste. .
"Good brother, you are so delicious."
At this moment, Yu Yun burst into tears.
Every time you taste the food in the game, you will feel a strong sense of happiness in your heart.
This is a delicacy that cannot be experienced at all in reality. It seems that the soul hidden in the body is enjoying the food.
But just when Yu Yun was about to take a second bite, he saw a bloody fireball appear in the sky, piercing the sky, and the billowing heat waves rippled and distorted the space, falling towards the sea not far away.
boom!
The fireball fell into the sea, setting off huge waves, and large amounts of water vapor rose into the sky, forming a white mist.
"Fuck!"
After seeing this scene, Yu Yun hesitated briefly and then decisively put most of the big bite of the good brother into his space bag and headed straight towards the direction where the fireball landed.
According to the three major game laws given by players in the forum, one of them is this:
In the event of an emergency, you must check closely.
Perhaps emergencies can bring unimaginable wealth gains, and as for losses, it is just an hour of confinement in a small dark room.
The comparison of risks and benefits is not worth mentioning.
Not long after, Yu Yun was escorted by his good brothers to the place where the fireball landed.
Searching the sea, he found a humanoid creature that was slowly sinking.
……
five days ago.
Zenith World.
Under the vast sky, the sea of clouds is billowing, golden light is shining, and the most magnificent picture in the world is slowly unfolding.
This is an ancient world where monsters and beasts coexist and thrive on this land.
On a towering peak towering into the sky in the center of the world, the rich spiritual energy turned into visible mist that enveloped the mountain top.
Sitting cross-legged on top of the rock at the top of the highest peak, Tianbing breathes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, feeling the warm current flowing through the body, and is eventually absorbed and digested by the body.
As the first ray of morning light from the horizon shone on the body, the body surface of the heavenly soldier was covered with a layer of golden light.
As he raised his hand, the sea of clouds surged in front of him. An invisible force swept forward with him as the center, causing the sea of clouds to roll back.
He also opened his eyes at this moment, and the joy could not be concealed in his pale golden pupils.
After practicing for 1,239 times in three seasons, he finally reached the legendary realm known as the "Ascension Realm" by the world.
At this moment, he had already faintly felt the world's rejection of him.
His power is no longer tolerated by the world, and he is about to ascend to the fairyland that countless practitioners dream of.
But before that, he still had a lot of unfinished business to do.
At this moment, the figure turned into a stream of light and came to the sect on the mountainside.
The chirping of birds in the mountains is crisp and sweet, intertwined with the sound of the gurgling stream in the distance to form a natural movement.
At the sect's martial arts field, a group of disciples in uniform uniforms have begun morning exercises.
The disciple may be holding a long sword, the light of the sword is like water, lightly drawing graceful arcs in the air, or the wind of the fist is whistling, and the shadow of the fist is heavy, and every time the fist is swung, there is a sound of breaking through the air, and the disciple's figure is light Such as Yan, flying and jumping in the air on the martial arts field.
As the morning practice deepened, beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of the sect disciples, and their movements became smoother and more powerful.
Under the morning light, their figures seemed to be coated with a layer of golden light.
After observing for a long time, the figures of the heavenly soldiers appeared.
Seeing the arrival of the heavenly soldiers, all the sect disciples knelt down one after another, looking at him with great admiration:
"Ancestor."
The Heavenly Soldier nodded calmly and turned into a phantom and came to the front of the sect hall.
The old man who was supervising the training of the disciples of the sect saw the heavenly soldiers approaching and immediately knelt down on the ground and respectfully called "ancestor".
"Yue Li, I will ascend in the near future, and the descendants of my lineage will be left to you."
Hearing this, the white-haired old man kneeling on the ground couldn't hide the shock in his eyes, and then he immediately said:
"Congratulations to the ancestor for being promoted to the immortal world."
"I'm going to the Zangzhen Pavilion to tell the world about me and invite the powerful in the world to witness that I will break the void and climb the ladder to heaven."
"I will obey my ancestor's will."
After the words fell, the heavenly soldiers turned into a stream of light and disappeared again.
Not long after, they came to a quiet bamboo forest located deep in the sect.
Here stands a building with a simple and elegant appearance, made of bluestone. Time has carved mottled marks on its surface. The roof of the pavilion is covered with green tiles, and the four corners of the eaves are raised, like four phoenixes spreading their wings, symbolizing the sublimation of wisdom and power. , whenever the breeze blows, the copper bells under the eaves will ring softly, crisp and sweet, like the harmony of the sounds of nature and wisdom.
Stepping into the Zangzhen Pavilion, the faint fragrance of ink and ancient wood hit your face. The light in the pavilion is soft, and the sunlight shines through the carved windows, which complements the lanterns hanging in the pavilion, creating a peaceful atmosphere. The pavilion is full of books, ranging from ancient From sheepskin scrolls to exquisite thread-bound books, each one carries the wisdom and hard work of the predecessors, recording the secrets of cultivation that cater to nature.
Among the bookshelves, you can see the core disciples of the sect standing or sitting, holding ancient books in their hands, immersed in the ocean of knowledge, and studying them carefully.
It turned into a wisp of breeze and came to the deepest part of Zangzhen Pavilion. Inside was the sect's most precious classics.
It not only records the history and inheritance of the sect, but also contains the supreme cultivation methods and secrets.
Only the disciples of the sect who have passed strict tests and have a firm mind are qualified to enter this holy land and explore the highest realm of cultivation.
It's been an unknown amount of time since I've been here, and the woody smell in the air makes Tianbing miss him so much.
I remember when I first entered the sect, I went through countless days and nights of hard study here in order to seek immortality.
Looking back on the past, I feel emotional.
Now he has finally followed in the footsteps of his predecessors and reached the end of this world, about to leave in the broken void.
Thinking of seeing his master again and the seniors he once accompanied, the corners of Tianbing's mouth turned up slightly.
He walked to the bookshelf at the end and pulled out an ancient scroll.
What is recorded above is the ascension insights left by the seniors.
Among them, he recorded the feeling of rejection from the world he just felt, and also recorded many summary of his cultivation.
The cultivation model in this world can be called spiritual cultivation.
Starting from building the foundation, nurturing spirituality in the body, the first step to becoming a cultivator is to condense the golden elixir in the body.
Then he continued to use spiritual energy to temper the golden elixir until it hatched into a Nascent Soul.
At this point, you have entered the palace and been promoted to a true cultivator. While your lifespan is greatly increased, you can sense subtle changes in the world and manipulate the power of nature to generate powerful spells.
The subsequent practice is to cultivate the Nascent Soul and let it continue to grow and strengthen.
His current cultivation level is the sixth realm in the realm of cultivation, which is also called the Ascension Realm by the world.
You can tear apart the thick space barrier at any time and go to the upper world along the ladder built in the upper world, which is also called the fairy world or heaven.
What kind of existence the fairy world is is recorded in detail in books.
The heavenly soldiers also witnessed the corner of the heaven revealed during ascension, and they still remember it vividly.
That was 215 years ago, when his senior brother ascended, he witnessed with his own eyes the scene after his senior brother tore apart the space.
On the broken sky, a dazzling ladder quietly emerged. It was not made of extraordinary stones, but was intertwined with countless twinkling stars and soft auras. It was like the Milky Way pouring down, converging into a rainbow bridge, until it submerged into the sky. The end of the space shrouded in mist and radiant light.
On both sides of the ladder to heaven, cranes soared, fairy music floated, and the melodious and profound melody washed away the impurities in the mortal body of the senior brother.
During this period, he could vaguely see an immortal clad in rays of light and with a transcendent expression looming at the end of the ladder. His otherworldly temperament made him awe and yearn for it.
When the senior brother stepped on the ladder to heaven and reached the end of the ladder, he saw the outline of the heaven gradually becoming clearer. It was a magnificent palace built of jade and divine materials. It was resplendent and majestic. Every brick and tile exuded a soft and gentle elegance. The dazzling light, until the senior brother passed through the gate of the upper world, everything dissipated into nothingness.
This is also a scene that Tianbing has dreamed of and fantasized about visiting in person countless times.
Looking through ancient books, many similar scenes were recorded, and admonitions were also left in the books.
For example, before ascending to the immortal world, you need to wash your body, remove all mundane dust, and then change into a new set of clothes to show respect for the immortals who lead you to the upper world.
The heavenly soldiers will remember these contents one by one.
Constantly flipping through different ancient books, time passed quietly and the sky became dark.
When his consciousness scanned the contents of the last ancient book on the bottom of the bookshelf, the Heavenly Soldier was stunned:
The last ancient book was left by a sect predecessor thousands of years ago. There are a few paragraphs printed on the first page of the book:
As I soar, I stand on the top of the clouds, looking forward to the world of mortals, with thousands of knots in my heart. I think of the past fireworks in the world, tenderness, gratitude and hatred, all of which have become clouds of the past. However, my heart is attached to the world of mortals, lingering and pathos, just like the spring breeze blowing on the willows, and it is difficult to let go.
Above the nine heavens, fairy music is floating, and the call has arrived, but his footsteps are as heavy as lead. Looking back, I see that the world is vast and the prosperity is still there, and I sigh in my heart.
It’s hard to let go of the warmth here. There are dreams in the world of mortals. I wish to stay here forever and am unwilling to leave.
……
The first page of the book describes this senior's emotion of being nostalgic for the mortal world and unwilling to leave.
But the world is increasingly rejecting this senior. In order to stay in the world, this greedy senior created a method of disintegration. He wanted to use this method to reverse himself and knock down his cultivation realm, even if the result was Even if your longevity is greatly reduced, you still have to stay in this world to accompany your relatives and old friends.
At the end of the book, the senior fell into the mortal world and passed away in less than fifteen years.
Turning to the last page of the ancient book, there is the method of disintegration left by the predecessor, which is given to the half-step immortal who is as greedy for the mortal world as him.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Soldiers sighed.
Unexpectedly, there is such a senior in the sect who is willing to give up the orthodox path of ascending to the upper world and choose to wither and die like a mortal.
But behind the emotion, Tianbing's heart never wavered.
Although there are memories in the mortal world, his Taoist heart is firm, and the fairy world is the goal he always pursues and strives for.
Now that he is a half-step immortal, how could he give up just like that?
He looked up and looked out the window.
Night has fallen outside, and fireflies are flying in the bamboo forest, like dots of starlight, which complement each other with the warm light from inside the pavilion, creating a peaceful scene.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he took a deep breath and turned into a stream of light and left quietly.
In the days that followed, the Heavenly Soldiers began to make funeral arrangements.
The music he has learned throughout his life will be written into a book and stored in the Zangzhen Pavilion for the disciples of the sect to learn and observe, leaving a path to immortality for future generations.
One day before the agreed day of ascension, the heavenly soldiers summoned the disciples of the sect and the descendants of their own lineage to the front of the sect's main hall.
Sitting cross-legged in the air, the Heavenly Soldier said his farewell with a calm expression. Looking at the descendants and sect disciples, Tianbing felt a trace of reluctance in his heart, but more of it was a longing for the upper world.
Farewell was approaching, and at the end, he left the sect disciples the following instructions for ascension:
"We practitioners have gone through countless hardships before we have this opportunity to ascend. Looking back at the journey, we can see that it is all tempered by the tempering of our mind and wisdom. Now that I am leaving, I would like to give you a few words. I hope that you and other future generations will remember them. Heart:
"First, practice is not a day's work. It needs to be persevered. Don't abandon the path because of temporary setbacks. The road is long and long. Only by not forgetting the original intention can you finally reach the other side."
"Second, if you have good thoughts in your heart and form many good karma, there is a cycle of cause and effect between heaven and earth. Only by sowing good causes and reaping good results and having compassion in your heart can you gain insight into the true meaning of all things in the world."
"Third, cultivating the mind is the foundation and attaches equal importance to virtue. The way of cultivation is not only the improvement of realm, but also the sublimation of one's mind. Only by cultivating one's mind with virtue can one control a higher level of realm without losing oneself."
"Fourth, don't be arrogant or impetuous, be humble and self-reflective. On the road to spiritual practice, temptations and tests coexist. Only by maintaining a humble heart and always reflecting on yourself can you avoid going astray."
"Fifth, cherish the sect's relatives and friends, and spread moral principles widely. Although ascension is beautiful, human love is also sincere. When pursuing personal cultivation, you should not forget to give back to the sect and do your best to pave the way for those who come after you."
"Although I leave, I hope that your descendants can inherit our aspirations and continue to move forward on this path of spiritual practice, surpassing themselves, until they ascend to the sky."
The next day, countless racial forces gathered at the highest peak.
Demon cultivators, devil cultivators, divine cultivators, corpse cultivators...all the strong men from all races were present, watching and witnessing the shocking moment when the ancestor of the heavenly soldiers was shattered and ascended.
At the foot of the mountain, creatures of all ethnic groups have gathered into a sea. They kneel or stand, looking up to the top of the mountain devoutly, their eyes shining with worship and yearning for the supreme power.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The figure of the heavenly soldier also appeared at this time. He was wearing a black cloud-patterned robe, hanging in the air like a sun, with a layer of dazzling golden light covering his whole body.
Looking down at the earth, Tianbing felt pride rising in his heart:
"Fellow Taoists, I am leaving."
After the words fell, the heavenly soldiers finally relaxed their suppressed sense of rejection from the world. Suddenly, brilliant auroras appeared in the sky, like a miracle coming, making the whole world look like a dream. Under the illumination of this light, the hearts of all the creatures of all races were watching. It was as if they had been purified by the power of the upper world, forgetting the grievances between races, and immersed themselves in this sacredness and solemnity together.
Suddenly, there was a loud roar in the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling light burst out from the heavenly soldiers, pointing directly at the sky.
At this moment, all the creatures of all races cheered in unison, and their voices gathered into a torrent that resounded through the sky, sending their most sincere blessings for the ascension of this most powerful man in the world.
The black hole in the sky expanded rapidly, and a ladder made of fairy jade spread out from the end of the space.
The immortal figure appears at the end of the space, and a corner of the magnificent building is revealed.
Countless creatures looked up and stared with envy and excitement in their eyes.
And this is exactly the ultimate goal of life that they have worked hard day and night to pursue.
Historical records record that at the end of the ladder to heaven is a fairyland that transcends the ordinary world and is beautiful.
In the world after the ascension, the four seasons will be like spring, the flowers will bloom undefeated, and the life span of the ascended ones will be permanent and will not fade with the changes of day and night.
All the beauty in fantasy can be found in that world.
When the heavenly soldiers walked up the ladder to heaven, and all races knelt down to worship, this was not only a witness to the supreme glory of the most powerful, but also a respect for the supreme truth.
"Congratulations to my ancestor for his ascension!"
"Congratulations to the ancestor of the Heavenly Soldiers for ascending to the immortal world."
"Congratulations to the ancestor of Heavenly Arms for your honor..."
Countless shouts resounded throughout the world.
The heavenly soldiers walked towards the ladder step by step with excitement and came to the gate at the end.
Looking at the phantom of the immortal, he nodded in salute, then took a deep breath and passed through the gate of heaven.
Suddenly a strong sense of weightlessness came over him, and he felt like the world was spinning, and an invisible force wrapped his body and sent him forward.
I don't know how long it took, but when my vision became clear, the scene in front of me made the Heavenly Soldier dumbfounded.
There is no majestic fairy palace, no world scene surrounded by fairy spirit... and there is no eternity and marrow cleansing process that lasts forever.
What appeared in his eyes was a cold and grand scene.
Ahead are neatly arranged life containers. Each container contains a humanoid creature. They are suspended in a transparent nutrient solution, and their bodies are connected by several hoses.
The outer shell of the container is covered with complex pipelines and interfaces, like life veins, continuously transporting nutrients and energy.
And he was also placed in one of the containers. At this time, he only felt weak and could not use any strength.
Turning to look to his side, he saw an extremely terrifying scene.
A body was torn open from the abdominal cavity. The life in the container was dead. The eyes were closed tightly, the face was distorted, and the afterimages of pain and fear hung at the corners of the mouth. There was also dark red mucus hanging on the edge of the abdominal cavity, which seemed to be left behind by some kind of creature before it left. .
Looking up again and scanning the front, there are many similar pictures in the container.
The Heavenly Soldier tried to struggle away, but found that he could not move at all, and a strong feeling of weakness enveloped him from the inside out.
At the same time, he felt as if something was awakening in his abdomen.
He tried to perceive, and was stunned by the image captured by his perception.
In the internal view, the face of Nascent Soul inside the body is changing. It is no longer his appearance, but has turned into a twisted and ferocious monster face.
It continuously swallows up the qi and blood in the body and grows rapidly.
This scene made the heavenly soldiers feel horrified, but they could not stop the monsters inside of them from devouring and growing.
"How could this happen?" While muttering, Tianbing suddenly realized a possibility.
Ascension is a scam!
The mortal world is just a breeding ground for creatures from the upper world. In their eyes, the cultivation and growth process is just helping the upper world to raise the ferocious monsters in their bodies.
The ascension realm in their eyes is just the maturity stage in the eyes of the beings in the upper world, and it's time to harvest.
The scene in front of me was more like a slaughterhouse than a fantasy fairyland.
"We have all been deceived." The Heavenly Soldier's eyes were splitting, but he could not stop the slow loss of energy and blood.
At this moment, an old voice came from beside:
"Don't waste your efforts. You can't break free and are destined to become the growth nutrients for the monster inside you."
The Heavenly Soldier turned around and saw that the figure in the container on the lower left was speaking.
"Where is this?"
"Haha, isn't this the heaven we dream of? I have been practicing hard in the Star Realm for 800 years. I thought I could attain enlightenment and become an immortal, but I never thought I would become a slaughtered animal."
As he spoke, the old man raised his head, revealing a decadent and depressed old face, with despair in his eyes:
"For this day, I have spent years and endured pain that ordinary people cannot bear, just to fly to the other side, but I didn't expect that all this was a scam. There is no fairyland at all, nor immortality under the eternal longevity, nor freedom. The freedom to travel between heaven and earth, everything is fake.”
"Tianxingyu, aren't you from the Zenith World?" Tianbing looked surprised.
This is also true. He has never seen this old man. The Zenith World where he lives invites cultivators from all over the world to visit every ascension event. He has never seen this man before.
"The upper world in our eyes has created multiple breeding farms, and the world you and I grew up in is one of them."
After saying this, the old man said with a ferocious expression:
"If I'm not wrong, the so-called beings in the upper world are just a group of parasites. They sow billions of life seeds into the lower world, which are what we think of as spiritual roots of cultivation. They have been implanted in our bodies when we were born. As we grow together with our cultivation, we have grown gradually from the foundation building. All the abilities we use are given by the parasitic monsters in our bodies, but we think we have the power to move the world.”
"Monsters use our flesh and blood as a furnace to grow and grow, and the ascension state in our eyes is just the monster in the body growing to maturity and about to break out of its shell. Ascension is just an illusion, bringing us to this slaughterhouse to welcome parasitism. The birth of the worm is the truth.”
"It's sad, it's sad." The old man said, unable to help but cough violently, and could not hide the pain in his brows. It was obvious that the monster in his body was still further eating away at his flesh and blood.
After listening to the old man's analysis, Tianbing felt despair.
He thought of his masters, senior brothers, and sect seniors who had ascended to the immortal world before him.
You can imagine what happened to them.
Full of expectations, they ascended to the fairy world, but what greeted them was a cold butcher's knife. They were imprisoned in a container and waited desperately for death. They watched helplessly as the Nascent Soul that they had worked so hard to cultivate cannibalized their own flesh and blood, and finally broke out of the body.
"Ahhhhh." Despair and anger intertwined, and the heavenly soldier roared hysterically. His body kept struggling and shaking, trying to get rid of the hose connecting the body.
"Don't waste your efforts. The energy injected from the top of the container is catalyzing the growth of the monster. The energy released by the monster imprisons your power. Neither you nor I can escape the end of being killed by the monster." The white-haired old man's voice was hoarse, and he couldn't stop speaking. Stop coughing.
"Shut up!" Tianbing was still struggling, but his sore body couldn't break free at all.
During this process, the monster bred in the body is still growing further.
Every time he gets weaker, the monster gets stronger.
Endless despair shrouded Tianbing's heart, and the beautiful illusion of the fairy world was completely shattered in his heart.
Thinking about the envy, excitement, and expectation in the eyes of the creatures in the lower world when he ascended, the heavenly soldier's eyes were about to burst, and endless hatred surged in his heart.
In their eyes, the immortals in the upper world regard the lower world as a breeding ground, which is hateful!
"It's just a huge cage." As he murmured, the Heavenly Soldier's eyes turned red.
Three days later.
The Heavenly Soldier looked haggard, and then a shrill scream woke him up.
Looking down, the old man raised his head and roared, his expression was extremely painful, and his bulging abdomen seemed like something was about to burst out of his chest.
The sound of tearing flesh and blood was heard at this moment, the old man's roar became fainter, and a blood-red life emerged from the old man's abdomen.
The monster's body was composed of blood-red energy that flowed as hot as lava, and its eyes were like two blazing energy flames. After it burst out of its body, its body grew and grew rapidly, and then it flew straight to the passage at the end of the sky.
The old man's fire of life was extinguished at this time, but the pain was still lingering on his face.
Seeing the old man die, Tianbing felt sad and angry.
He knew that soon, like the dead old man, he would be sucked dry by the monster in his body and eventually die.
But despite his endless hatred, he could not break free and could only die in despair.
"I am not willing to..."
At this moment, the past replayed in Tianbing's mind.
He saw the young man in green shirt who had the ambition of immortality, stepped into the sect, kowtowed, and wanted to ask for the method of immortality.
I saw the hard-working young people exercising at sunrise and meditating at sunset...
Three seasons passed, and his determination to long for the great road never wavered.
Countless days and nights alternated, and he put in unimaginable efforts for this, but in the end it was just a shocking conspiracy, making a wedding dress for the upper world.
When the scene advanced to the moment before ascension, the heavenly soldiers suddenly opened their eyes.
He thought of the ancient book he saw in Zangzhen Pavilion before ascending.
The method of disintegration left by the senior who was greedy for the mortal world and unwilling to ascend.
Countless text messages flashed through my mind.
At the end of this ancient book, a method of reversal cultivation is recorded, which can extinguish the fire in the body, abandon the Nascent Soul, and transform into the mortal world.
At this point, the heaven and earth rejected each other and dissipated, and the senior successfully stayed in the mortal world.
With his heart beating loudly, Tianbing did not hesitate to try to practice the techniques left by his predecessors, hoping to refine the monster seeds in his body.
During this process, a scene that surprised him happened.
The monster in his body screamed at a spiritual level, appearing to be extremely painful, during which strands of energy and blood were discharged from his body along his pores.
"Hahahaha."
Seeing the pain of the monster inside him, Tianbing laughed excitedly.
The process of reversing the realm is actually refining the Nascent Soul, the monster within the body.
During this period, Tianbing also endured severe pain.
Reversing the process of crushing the monster nurtured in his body is like turning a live fetus he had conceived into a stillborn fetus. The monster is connected to his body, and the refining process is also self-mutilation.
But Tianbing was extremely happy inside.
Compared with the previous despair, at this moment he regained the absolute dominance of his body and could freely vent his anger to the monster in his body.
The monster also kept neighing during the refining process, its expression twisted and changed, and it looked extremely painful.
The pain also caused the heavenly soldiers to laugh hysterically.
It was an indescribable pain, like severing one's own meridians, which severely damaged one's vitality. This pain was not only reflected in the physical body, but also in the spiritual level.
Qi and blood continued to flow out, and the heavenly soldiers opened their mouths and spit out blood mist.
This is the part of the monster's body that was expelled from the body during the refining process.
Five days later, the monster in the body died completely. The heavenly soldier opened his mouth and coughed out a bloody fragment, completing the final refining.
At this time, he only had half a life left, and his spiritual consciousness was full of cracks, as if it would collapse at any time.
A feeling of emptiness and powerlessness filled his heart from the inside out, and the cracked sea of consciousness made his perception of the world blurry.
The monster is connected to his life. When the monster dies, he becomes crippled. Only the remains of his body that have been tempered and polished are still able to move.
There was no monster secreting special substances. After breaking free, he tore off the hose on his body, took a deep breath and then raised his fist to hit the translucent barrier in front.
This layer of barrier was prepared for the monster to leave. Even though he was weak, he could easily break it.
Coming to the edge of the container, Tianbing looked down.
Below is an endless abyss, with countless containers neatly arranged and extending downwards without end.
It’s hard to imagine how many breeding worlds the upper-level “immortals” in their eyes have built, requiring so many containers to carry them.
Without the magic ability given by the monster, the heavenly soldiers who could no longer fly in the air looked up at the passage in the dome.
He stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. A look of ferocity appeared on his face. Without any hesitation, he ignited his own energy and blood and turned into a fireball of energy and blood that flew high into the sky.
Perhaps there would still be death at the end of the passage, but he had no other choice.
Even if it means death, we must charge towards the last glimmer of hope without hesitation.
Passing through the passage and flying high into the sky, the heavenly soldiers were stunned by the scene before them.
Below are countless huge cylindrical containment buildings, and he escaped from one of the containment buildings.
Keep flying upwards, and you can see the intertwined spiritual patterns on the earth, and at least a dozen space channels connecting other worlds are operating.
The heavenly soldiers gritted their teeth and continued to burn their energy and blood, flying high and running towards the unknown distance.
More than ten minutes later, the heavenly soldiers flew out of the island and entered the boundless blue sea.
But he still didn't stop flying, continuing to burn his little energy and blood, trying to do his best to escape into the distance.
If you stop at this time, you may be captured by the "immortal" in the fairy world at any time.
During this period, his consciousness became confused, and the already shattered consciousness space was even more shaky. The Heavenly Soldier did not know how long he had been flying. Finally, his head tilted and he passed out completely, turning into a fireball of energy and blood that streaked across the sky. , falling straight towards the sea.
boom!
The moment his body touched the sea, a huge wave was set off, and the boiling blood evaporated a large area of sea water.
The seawater gradually submerged Tianbing's body and kept sinking.
At this moment, a figure controlled countless small silver fish to attack, and the fish bit the body of the heavenly soldier and dragged it to the shore.
But this process seems extremely laborious.
Not long after, Tianbing's body was dragged ashore by a school of fish.
"Damn it, what did you eat when you grew up? Why is your body so heavy? My good brother is exhausted."
Although he did not exert any effort, Yu Yun, who was controlling the silver-tailed fish group, still subconsciously wiped his forehead, but there was no sweat.
Looking down at a silver-tailed fish that had rolled its eyes, Yu Yun stretched out his hand to fish it out of the water, and said to the fish's open and closed mouth:
"Good brother, it seems that you are dying. You will merge into your big brother's body later and stay with me from now on."
After saying this, Yu Yun looked at the humanoid being dragged to the shore. After focusing his eyes, his analytical ability was activated, and relevant information continued to pour into his mind.
【Heavenly Soldiers】
Hunting level: 75 (the target has been stripped of its core power source, its body is severely damaged, and its hunting level assessment has dropped to level 75)
Target analysis: Creatures from the top of the ecological chain of the Zenith World were originally flesh and blood parasites raised by the Ascension Tribe, and descended from the broken void to the monster world.
……
"Even with severe injuries, I still have a hunting level of 75, so strong!"
Yu Yun looked very surprised when he saw the analysis information.
The intensity of being seriously injured and about to die is almost as strong as Brother Tianhuo. He can imagine how strong this guy named Tianbing must be in his heyday.
But what followed was ecstasy.
"Get rich!"
He raised his hand and took out a quality 8 blue battle ax from his space bag. He rushed forward and chopped it down.
But Yu Yun soon stopped.
He found that he could not break through the surface defense of the heavenly soldiers at all, and the battle ax hit the heavenly soldiers, causing his hands to hurt.
The opponent's blood was not drained at all, but he was drained of a lot of blood.
“Damn it, there’s no way to start!”
