Episode 44: Thirty thousand years in a hurry, the late stage of returning to the void(2/4)
If you are discovered by those eighth-level alien beings, you don't have to worry too much. Under normal circumstances, you can make it clear that you are just here for a tour and leave immediately, and nothing will happen.
After all, the human race is the top force in the True Immortal Realm. Those alien races do not dare to take the risk of war with the human race and surround and kill a human race's True King in the Void Return Stage. Moreover, they may not be able to surround and kill Zhou Yang.
During their travels, Zhou Yang and the others also saw a variety of foreign races.
There is a foreign race called the "Horned Dragon Clan", they have a humanoid body, are covered in scale armor, and have a single horn on their forehead. They are born with magical abilities. They follow the path of bloodline cultivation, and there are also Hedao-level existences in the tribe.
There is an alien race called the "Winged Wolf Tribe". They have wolf bodies with wings, are cunning and cruel, and like to eat the brains and hearts of other creatures. They are disliked by many alien races.
There is a foreign race called the "Water Spirit Tribe", with bodies like fish and tails, and hair like algae. They live in an extremely vast sea area. They practice soul magic like the human race, and they also have Hedao-level protection.
There is also a foreign race called the "gold-eating tribe" who feed on spiritual gold ore, temper their bodies through the spiritual gold ore to become indestructible, and master various powers such as the five elements, wind and thunder.
This kind of alien race is very powerful alone, and it is almost difficult to find an opponent, but it is difficult to join forces, so it often falls into the prey of other alien races, and their corpses are used as materials for refining weapons.
Whenever Zhou Yang goes to a place where a foreign race is located, he will learn in detail about the alien's cultivation method, and will even find the alien's cultivation method for simulation and deduction.
And just like [Zhenjun Liyang] said to him at that time, each foreign race's way of cultivation has its own uniqueness, which is of great significance to the Zhenjun in the Return to Void stage who needs to learn from other paths to complete his own path.
reference research role.
Zhou Yang could clearly feel his progress during this kind of travel, which made him look forward to the rest of the journey even more.
Soon after, Zhou Yang traveled to a foreign area called the "Tianling Tribe".
This "Celestial Spirit Clan" is also the top force in the True Immortal Realm, and its strength is not much worse than that of the human race.
Its appearance is all kinds of strange, and there is no unified form. The way to distinguish one's own race from another race is the accompanying spiritual bead.
The name "Tianling Clan" is derived from the fact that they are born as a spiritual tribe. They are even called the "sons of Heaven" and consider themselves to be the darlings of Heaven.
And the talents of this clan are indeed very powerful. Strictly speaking, their cultivation system should be a divine soul and mana system similar to that of the human race.
However, unlike the human race who need to form a pill to transform into an infant, they only practice and strengthen their companion spirit bead from the beginning to the end.
The companion spirit bead is equivalent to the immortal soul of the "Tianling Clan" and is their most important thing.
And through this accompanying spirit bead, the talent of the "Celestial Spirit Clan" in magic and magical powers simply combines the advantages of the two races, the human race and the demon race.
Not only can they cast many kinds of spells instantly like monsters cast their innate spells, but they can also practice a variety of spells with different attributes just like human monks who practice other attribute spells.
If it weren't for the fact that the "Celestial Spirit Clan" couldn't refine and use various magic weapons like human monks, their strength would probably be stronger than that of the human race.
The eighth-level existence of the "Tianling Clan" is also called the "Spirit Saint".
These "spiritual saints" are actually the same as the human race's True Lord Returning to the Void. After reaching the eighth level, it is difficult to increase their cultivation level.
Therefore, a long time ago, the human race and the "Tianling Race" reached an agreement with each other, and the eighth-level beings from both sides could openly travel and communicate in each other's territory.
After Zhou Yang arrived in the "Tianling Tribe" area, he directly visited some eighth-level spiritual saints of the "Tianling Tribe" in a public capacity and discussed the Tao with them.
During this period, he naturally had to fight with some spiritual saints who wanted to give him, an outsider, power.
The result is obvious. At the mid-eighth level, there are not many people who can beat Zhou Yang, but they are really rare.
Therefore, he won consecutive battles, beating those holy saints to the point where they no longer had any temper at all.
Zhou Yang also gained a lot from communicating with the eighth-level spiritual saints of the "Tianling Tribe", plus his own observations of those "Tianling Tribe" below the seventh level, and studying their cultivation systems and techniques.
He stayed in the "Tianling Tribe" area for nearly ten years before leaving.
Such foreign races traveled one after another. When Zhou Yang's hundred-year vacation was almost used up, he had only visited 70% of the True Immortal Realm.
As a last resort, he could only take another thirty years of leave and continue to travel the remaining areas.
After another thirty years passed, Zhou Yang finally traveled all over the True Immortal Realm and returned to the Human Immortal Realm.
"How do you feel about this trip to fellow Taoist Qianyang? Judging from the look on your face, I guess you have gained a lot!"
In the Xianting headquarters, when Zhou Yang, who had returned from traveling, handed over his powers from the "Marshal Xuan Ling Evil Breaker" who acted for him, he saw the other party looking at him with a smile and asking about the results of his trip.
Seeing this, he did not shy away from anything, and answered frankly: "The harvest is very great, and it is also an eye-opener."
"Marshal Xuan Ling Breaking Evil" heard this and couldn't help but laugh and said: "Hahaha, that's natural. Otherwise, why would we go on a long journey after refining the gods and returning to the void?"
"This is just the True Immortal Realm. When fellow Taoist Qianyang retires in the future, you can go to the Ascension Platform to ask for some spatial landmarks of the lower realms, and directly travel around the lower realms to experience the laws of different worlds, and observe the cultivation methods of various alien races.
You will also gain a lot from it, fellow Taoist!"
After leaving office in the future?
When Zhou Yang heard the words "Marshal Xuan Ling Breaks Evil", he couldn't help but look at him.
Under normal circumstances, the Immortal Court's rotation of true kings takes place once every 100,000 years.
Only under some special circumstances during this period would someone do it for less than 100,000 years.
For example, [True Lord Lingxu] only served as the rotating True Lord for more than 50,000 years, and was suddenly replaced by [True Lord Xunyang].
As for [True Lord Xun Yang], he only served as the rotating True Lord for a few thousand years before he resigned early and passed the throne to Zhou Yang.
Therefore, if Zhou Yang does not encounter such a thing, he can either choose to wait until he has served for 100,000 years before abdicating the throne, or he can take the initiative to resign early.
According to Zhou Yang's own thoughts, it doesn't actually matter whether the leader of the fighting department does something in the future.
Anyway, he has the qualifications to serve as the leader of the fighting department, and his words will be effective in the human race from now on.
But he can't just think about himself.
With him in the position of the leader of Doubu, Chixiao Immortal Palace can enjoy the benefits of Immortal Court.
If he steps down and abdicates, this benefit will be greatly reduced.
So although Zhou Yang was a little tempted at this time, he still held back his thoughts and did not really take action.
All in all, the income from this trip to the True Immortal Realm has been enough for him to digest for a while, and there is no need to think about abdicating the throne yet.
In the following time, Zhou Yang focused on digesting the gains gained from traveling to the various tribes in the True Immortal Realm, and rarely left the Immortal Court headquarters.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of years passed quickly.
After ten thousand years of dedicated practice, Zhou Yang feels that he has made considerable progress. If he can maintain this progress, he may be able to break through to the late stage of returning to the void in another ten thousand years.
But at this time, the gains he gained from traveling to the True Immortal Realm have already been digested. It will undoubtedly be very difficult for him to make such rapid progress in cultivation as he did in the past ten thousand years. He will need to find another opportunity.
Involuntarily, Zhou Yang remembered what the "Xuanling Evil Marshal" said thousands of years ago in his mind.
Traveling around all the heavens and realms is indeed something that many true kings in the return to void stage, especially those in the late stage of return to void, often do.
"Chixiao Immortal Palace seems to be developing very well now? Then go back and take a look first!"
After Zhou Yang pondered for a while, he decided to go back to Chixiao Immortal Palace to have a look and understand the situation first.
Since he took over as the leader of Doubu, he has rarely paid attention to the internal affairs of Chixiao Immortal Palace. His son Zhou Guangcheng also knows that he is devoted to cultivation and has no time to pay attention to these things, so he rarely reports these trivial matters to him.
However, Zhou Yang himself also knew that after he opened the way to the "Linghuan Realm" to ascend to the True Immortal Realm, Chixiao Immortal Palace became the receiving place for the human race's true immortals in the lower realm. Basically, the "Linghuan Realm" was the capital of the human race's true immortals.
Joined Chixiao Immortal Palace.
With such a stable source of income, Chixiao Immortal Palace must have developed very well over the past 20,000 years.
Sure enough, the situation was just as Zhou Yang thought, and even better than he thought.
According to Zhou Guangcheng's report, there are now as many as sixteen true immortals in the Tribulation Stage alone in Chixiao Immortal Palace, seven of whom were born in the lower realm.
At the same time, there were four true immortals in the later stages of the tribulation. The two who survived the tribulation were Baichuan Zhenren and Zhou Guangzheng.
Although this number is still smaller than that of Zhenyangmen, compared with the three or four big cats and kittens in the past, it is undoubtedly an earth-shaking change.
And thanks to Zhou Yang's opportunity to recommend people to serve in the Immortal Court every five thousand years, even if Zhou Yang himself is not counted, there are now five immortals from Chixiao Immortal Palace serving in Dongzhen Immortal Court, and there are even some
There is one quota that has not been used.
At this time, everyone can see that the revival of Scarlet Firmament Immortal Palace has been completed, and it is just around the corner to become the dominant force in Scarlet Firmament Immortal Domain again in the future.
Therefore, many immortal palaces in other immortal realms that had cut off contact with the Scarlet Firmament Immortal Palace in the past have now resumed communication. True immortals from other immortal realms often come to the Scarlet Firmament Immortal Realm to travel and visit the Scarlet Firmament Immortal Palace.
Nowadays, very few people care about Zhenyang Gate.
So, the time seems to be ripe?
Zhou Yang's expression changed, and he immediately went to see [Zhenjun Liyang] again.
If he wants to step down as the leader of the fighting department, he must first communicate with [Zhenjun Liyang] and win his approval.
"I understand what fellow Taoist Qianyang means. Logically speaking, I shouldn't let fellow Taoist give up pursuing the great path just because of the interests of my sect."
"However, fellow Taoist serving as the leader of the Fighting Department has indeed benefited our sect a lot. It would be a pity if he resigned now!"
"So if possible, please ask fellow Taoist Qianyang to wait another ten thousand years. In another ten thousand years, our sect should be able to reduce its dependence on fellow Taoist!"
In Liyang Paradise, [True Lord Liyang], after hearing Zhou Yang's intention, pondered for more than half an hour before looking at him and expressing his opinion.
There is no doubt about the importance of Zhou Yang to Chixiao Immortal Palace.
[Zhenjun Liyang] definitely doesn’t want him to be resistant to Chixiao Immortal Palace because of certain things.
Therefore, the tone at this time was also very soft, and it was completely dominated by Zhou Yang.
Do you want to wait another ten thousand years?
Zhou Yang looked at [Zhenjun Liyang] with an expectant look on his face and hesitated.
"Okay, then let's wait another ten thousand years!"
