In Shanghai.
Zhan Wang carried Fang ping and Lu Zhen. Just as he arrived in Magic City, his eyes suddenly moved. He smiled and said,"Wu kuishan is awake!"
"The principal is awake?"
Fang ping was pleasantly surprised, while Lu Zhen was a little confused. He was awake?
He really did not know that Wu kuishan had been unconscious all this while. Fang ping did not mention this, only saying that Wu kuishan was about to break through to the peak.
At this moment, Lu Zhen's gaze also changed.
So many experts!
……
In the underground hall, Wu kuishan, who had been floating, suddenly opened his eyes.
The next moment, the aura on Wu kuishan's body exploded to its strongest!
In the hall, all of mcmau's powerhouses had arrived. At this moment, some rank-7 and 8 martial artists were feeling a lot of pressure.
Several rank-9 powerhouses also unleashed their auras to resist.
Guo shengquan, Wang Qinghai, and old man Li ...
These people all had extremely powerful auras!
In the crowd, the three Paragon experts didn't release their pressure, and they looked indifferent.
Among the rank-8 powerhouses, li Hansong's face was also indifferent. The divine armor on his body appeared, and he felt no pressure at all.
Qin Fengqing hid behind him, allowing him to withstand the pressure. He popped his head out and rested it on iron head's shoulder. He looked at Wu kuishan in front of him and asked curiously,"The principal has become stronger. Why does this feeling of becoming stronger after a night's sleep feel so familiar?"
Iron head shrugged his shoulders. This guy was very annoying. These past two days when Fang ping was not around, this guy had been sticking to him. It was very annoying.
But soon, iron head didn't have to worry anymore.
Qin Fengqing had just finished speaking when he stopped moving. His eyes fell into a daze, as if he had lost his soul.
Old man Li and the others glanced at Zhang Tao, who did not even look at Qin Fengqing. They were speechless.
Qin Fengqing had spoken the truth. 'You're a bully too?
It was a tradition to become stronger after a night's sleep.
It was super big news that someone had reached the peak in one night.
Zhang Tao restrained Qin Fengqing and ignored him. He glanced at Wu kuishan, who was still a little dazed. Very quickly, his eyes flickered and he said with a smile,"Just nice, Fang Ping's back too ... Eh ..."
Zhang Tao was slightly stunned. He suddenly looked at Lu fengrou, then at Wu kuishan. He could not help but laugh."Today is a joyous day! "Fang ping should have had some gains. Today, one of you has a huge increase in strength, and the other has good news ..."
Before he could finish his sentence, old man Li and the others suddenly looked at Lu fengrou's stomach.
Old man Li was slightly surprised and shocked.
Was he going to have a baby?
Just as Zhang Tao was about to finish his sentence, he was also stunned. He looked at old man Li with a dumbfounded expression.
You ... Why are you staring at her stomach?
"Good news is coming. I haven't even finished speaking. Why are you looking at Lu fengrou's stomach for no reason?
Lu fengrou was also very confused. She had been very happy just now, but when she saw li Changsheng staring at her, she immediately became angry and said,"Li Changsheng, do you want to die?"
Old man Li laughed drily. He had subconsciously thought of this.
Now that he thought about it, it shouldn't be. If he really wanted to have a child, he could have sensed it.
He was just about to ask when old man Li's gaze shifted slightly. He stopped asking but said in surprise,"Did I sense it wrong?"
On the side, Wang Qinghai smiled and said,""I didn't sense it wrong. It's really him."
At this moment, Wu kuishan opened his eyes as well. His face suddenly revealed a look of pleasant surprise. He looked at Lu fengrou abruptly and said, "Let's go, quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu kuishan grabbed Lu fengrou and disappeared from the underground hall in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Zhang Tao also followed. He laughed as he walked,""Lu Zhen and Fang ping actually came back together. Did they meet each other in the boundary? It seems like we've gained something unexpected this time. Let's go take a look. "
"Elder Lu, you're back?"
At this moment, Luo Yichuan and the others found out that Lu Zhen had returned. They were all very surprised.
Lu Zhen had disappeared for three years, and everyone thought he was dead.
He didn't expect to come back alive!
Everyone was surprised and overjoyed. They couldn't care about anything else and walked out one after another.
……
In the distance, they were already very close to mcmau.
Lu Zhen's gaze was very complicated. He was also a rank-9 powerhouse, and his mentality was not weak. At this moment, he had already sensed many situations.
"This is mcmau?"
He could not believe that this was mcmau!
Three years ago, he came to mcmau often.
"At that time, there were not many high-ranked and middle-ranked martial artists in mcmau.
But now?
Dozens of high-ranks!
"Middle-ranked martial artists ... He can't count them all at once. There must be a few thousand?
It seemed like there were no martial artists below rank-3 in the entire mcmau. Even if there were, they were so few that they could be ignored.
Was this really mcmau?
While Lu Zhen was still in shock, two figures quickly rose into the air in the distance.
When he saw the person in the air, Lu Zhen could not be bothered to be shocked by mcmau's transformation.
It had been three years, and his daughter and son-in-law were still alive. This was his greatest fortune!
"Dad!"
A few hundred meters away, Lu fengrou's face was also in a daze. Father had returned?
His father was still alive!
In the next second, Lu fengrou could not hold it in any longer. She broke through the air and headed straight for Lu Zhen. Before she even reached him, her eyes were already red.
These few years, these few days, she had too many things that she wanted to say, but no one could.
His daughter had died, his father had gone missing, he was in a Cold War with his husband, and his martial arts had been stagnant ...
A few days ago, her husband was also unconscious. Although he said he was fine, how could she be at ease?
Today, her husband had woken up. What made her even happier was that her father was still alive and had returned!
"Fengrou!"
Lu Zhen also sighed. Seeing his daughter fly over, he also smiled and was very happy.
……
Fang ping saw that Lu Zhen and Lu fengrou, father and daughter, were meeting each other. He did not disturb them and landed with the Wargod.
Not far away, Wu kuishan did not step forward to disturb his wife and father-in-law's reunion.
Seeing Fang ping land, Wu kuishan's figure moved as well. He landed in front of Fang ping and the other man. He looked at his wife in the air and chuckled."Fang ping, you've done well this time. You've actually brought elder Lu back."
Fang ping looked at him in surprise. 'What's your name?
Isn't this your father-in-law?
Wu kuishan could not be bothered to explain. He was just used to calling him that. Besides, his relationship with Lu Zhen ... Was not considered good.
This old man had opposed him and Lu fengrou back then. Lu Zhen was a scholar-type martial artist. If he did not practice martial arts, he would probably be a nerdy type too. He did not like Wu kuishan, this sinister villain, and spoke ill of him many times.
Wu kuishan did not say much. After looking at it for a while, he smiled and said,"This time, it's all thanks to you!"
"I should!"
Fang ping did not dwell on how he should call him. Seeing that Wu kuishan was awake, he was also happy and said quickly,"Principal, how are you doing? He didn't become a Paragon? Are we still far from the peak?"
Wu kuishan shook his head. Beside him, Wargod took a few more glances at Wu kuishan and chuckled,"Kid, you can combine two DAOs into one?"
"I didn't merge with it."
Wu kuishan shook his head and said,"after all, they're two different DAOs. In fact, I'm only borrowing profound Jade true King's Dao, not borrowing it." But now that his path is clear, he can walk it first. However, I can't suppress my own path too much.
That's why I didn't use his Dao to make a breakthrough ..."
"You're quite bold!"
The battle King laughed."This is not a temptation that ordinary people can resist. Your own origin Dao may not be able to walk out of the future. Although Xuan Yu's Dao is weak, it is still the true king Dao. The path is clear.
If it were someone else, they would definitely continue walking down this path if they had the chance. You sure dare to make such a choice. "
Wu kuishan smiled and said softly,"in the current situation, having one more of the weakest paragons may not be of much use." "On the other hand, it might be more useful if I walk my own path and go far.
If a war has already broken out, then I won't wait any longer.
But there's none at the moment, so I'll wait and see.
Moreover, there are restrictions at the peak, so it may not be better than now. "
"That's true,"
As the two of them were talking, Zhang Tao and the others had arrived.
Only then did Fang ping realize that Li Zhen and Nan yunyue were also there.
The four great Paragon powerhouses were actually all in mcmau. It seemed that these paragons also attached great importance to Wu kuishan's matter.
When Zhang Tao arrived, he did not say anything else and said,""Lu Zhen came out from the boundary region?"
"Yes."
"Let's go to mcmau's guest hall and wait. Let the father and daughter have a chat first. I have something to ask them later!"Zhang Tao said, deep in thought.
The paragons attached great importance to this. Lu Zhen had returned from the boundary.
In other words, he had been there for several years?
Fang ping nodded and did not say anything.
……
At the same time.
In midair, Lu Zhen and his daughter also landed.
The two of them found a quiet place. Lu Zhen looked at his daughter with a face full of emotion.
"In the blink of an eye, three years have passed. "You've changed too much in the past three years. Fengrou, you're already at middle-stage rank-7, almost at upper-stage ..."
"Dad!"
It was rare for Lu fengrou to show the attitude of a young girl. She was a little unhappy. She had not seen her father for many years, and the first thing he talked about when they met was strength. This made her very dissatisfied.
Lu Zhen laughed. He was a bit old-fashioned, but at this time, he suddenly joked, When I saw Fang Ping, he said that he was your student ... I was shocked.
"On the way back, dad has been thinking, he's already rank-9. What rank are you?
If you're stronger than dad, then I've wasted the past three years. Fortunately, I've left some face for dad. "
"He's a monster, but he's different. "
Seeing her father mention Fang ping, Lu fengrou said helplessly, "He's only been in school for two years, not even three. I didn't expect him to improve so quickly either, but he's not rank-9 yet. A rank-8 seventh-refined golden body is about the same as a rank-9. "
"I see. Eighth-grade seventh refined ... The northern sect's way."
Lu Zhen nodded slightly. Lu fengrou looked puzzled. Lu Zhen smiled and said, "We'll talk about this later. How are things between you and kuishan now?"
"Just like that."
"I saw you guys come out together just now. It seems like your relationship has eased."
"You're not young anymore, don't throw a childish tantrum. "Lu Zhen laughed. "Fang ping said that the sky Gate City Lord has already been killed. Let Duoduo's matter pass."
"I know."
"Oh right, mcmau is preparing to launch a counterattack on Magic City catacombs this time. Count me in."
Lu Zhen said, then suddenly added,"Also, we still have to pay attention to the evil sect's side. Don't let them mix in. If the evil sect martial artists appear in the middle of the battle, we'll be in trouble."
"Evil sect?"
"The evil sect has been annihilated. Now, other than the Pope, who is nowhere to be found, the other elders are all dead ..." Lu fengrou said in surprise.
Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment before slowly saying,"The evil sect has been annihilated?"
"More or less."
"Are there no evil sect martial artists in Magic City catacombs?"
"Definitely not. If there was, they would have been discovered long ago."
"Fengrou, have you ever seen a space that can trap people?"
"Trapping people? "Fang Ping's will do. This kid's materialization is very special ..."
Lu Zhen understood. He looked into the distance without saying a word. At this moment, Fang ping was still talking and laughing with a few powerhouses. Lu Zhen said thoughtfully,"Fengrou, this student of yours is really something."
Lu Zhen complimented before his face turned black and he said in a low voice,"I just came out of the boundary and was beaten up. The back of my head still hurts. Then, I was thrown into the actualised space and was trapped for a long time ..."
Lu fengrou almost laughed out loud, but she held back her laughter and said,"He did it?"
"What do you think? "That kid even put on a big show himself, saying that it was the evil sect martial artists who did it. He even helped me kill the evil sect martial artists. I knew something was wrong ..."
Lu Zhen also didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He shook his head and said,'Forget it. At least he's not a real evil sect martial artist. Otherwise, it'd be more aggrieving to die in someone else's hands instead of dying in the precinct.
Now that dad is back alive, he is lucky. "
Lu fengrou could not help but laugh."I'll help you teach him a lesson later. Ever since his abilities surpassed mine, I can't control him anymore. I don't have an excuse to settle scores with him either." This time is just right, I'll beat this kid up and let him be arrogant all day. "
After chatting with her father for a while, Lu fengrou saw that Lu Zhen kept looking in that direction. She knew that her father had something to say. Although she felt that there was no need to be so anxious, she did not delay her father any longer. The two of them walked over together.
……
In the living room.
The heads of the three departments were all there, so was the Wargod, and Wu kuishan had also woken up.
Fang ping did not receive the same treatment as last time, sitting in the main seat.
At this moment, he was obediently sitting below.
Above them, the four paragons were sitting casually. Wu kuishan did not sit, but stood at the door and waited.
Zhang Tao sipped his tea and said with a smile,""Kid, you seem to be in trouble."
Fang ping rolled his eyes and said helplessly,""Minister, can you not eavesdrop? I know what you're talking about. I didn't hit him on purpose. You really need to quit your habit of eavesdropping, it's an invasion of privacy. "
The moment these words were said, it resonated with many people.
"Zhang Tao, you really need to change your bad taste!" Nan yunyue also chimed in.
Zhang Tao smiled and didn't say anything. Beside him, Zhan Wang said lazily,""He wasn't eavesdropping. He just couldn't control his power. This guy's power is growing too fast and he can't control it.
However, if he was still listening beyond the ten-mile range, then he must have done it on purpose.
If we don't go beyond this range, his spiritual energy will automatically disperse, so we can't blame him. "
Zhang Tao smiled and did not deny it. Nan yunyue, on the other hand, was a little surprised."You can't control your strength? How could that be?"
Li Zhen said calmly,"that's normal. His strength has always exceeded his limits. Back then, when he was at the peak of his origin Dao, he could not control it. This led to him reaching the peak after he woke up."
There's something wrong with this guy. His strength is increasing too fast, it's not normal. "
"Alright, stop guessing," Zhang Tao said, amused. His power had exceeded the limit because it had increased too quickly. Recently, martial arts had been flourishing, and the neo martial arts era had entered its heyday. Other things aside, the Dao of the people in the world was still a little interesting.
Recently, I've been comprehending a Dao every now and then and have integrated it into the unifying Dao. My power has increased too much and I can't control it for a while. "
As soon as he said this, the paragons shut up instantly.
Fang ping, on the other hand, was interested. He said hurriedly,"Minister, isn't the Dao of all people something only the Emperor can cultivate?"
"That's not necessarily the case. The emperor's Dao ... It's said to be the Dao of the people, but in fact, it's still domineering! The Dao of all people in the new martial era could be said to be a kind of Dao of all living beings.
In short, there were some differences between the two, but they could still be walked.
Of course, I won't walk these DAOs. I'll just watch from the side. In the end, all the DAOs will still be one. "
Zhang Tao looked at him and said,"Fang ping, what are you planning to do next?" At this point, it's time to consider it. "
Fang ping thought for a while before saying,"we'll see. I'll forge the Golden body first. When I reach the ninth refinement, I'll think about how to proceed."
"The ninth refinement of the Golden body is difficult!"
While Zhang Tao was speaking, Lu Zhen and Lu fengrou had already walked over.
Upon hearing Fang Ping's words, Lu Zhen quickly said,"The ninth refinement golden body isn't that easy. He did not have enough spiritual power to support the forging of the Golden body. A 9th refined golden body is extremely rare even in the ancient martial arts era. "
As Lu Zhen spoke, he cupped his hands at the three ministers and said with a smile,"Long time no see, three ministers!"
"We haven't seen each other for three years, and you're a rank-9 too."
Zhang Tao smiled and beckoned him to sit down. He said,""I'm a little surprised that you can come back this time. "Three years ago, you entered Magic City catacombs and disappeared. I guessed that you entered the boundary.
However, I originally thought that you wouldn't be able to survive. It's a pleasant surprise that you're able to come out this time. "
"Indeed," Lu Zhen nodded and sighed,"I also thought that I wouldn't be able to come out alive."
"Are you sure that the guy inside is a living person?"
Zhang Tao didn't hesitate and asked directly.
Lu Zhen pondered for a moment before saying,"he's alive, but his condition isn't right!" His mental energy and physical body seemed to have been separated! What I've been seeing is probably his spiritual Power's physical form, not his actual body.
When I was cultivating in the lake of immortality, I sensed something. His body ... Might be hidden below!
There might be a problem with these people ..."
Lu Zhen was much more direct than when he was talking to Fang ping. He said in a deep voice,"I suspect that there's something wrong with the ancient martial arts path back then! These people had cultivated to this realm, so there might be flaws!
According to the senior from Kuocang mountain, during the period of the sects, the ancient human cultivators were divided into the North and the South.
The southern sect focused on mental power, while the northern sect focused on physical strength.
He didn't tell me the details, so I'm not too sure. However, there were some conflicts between the two factions back then, and even a war broke out because of it.
I don't think it'll be a problem for the southern sect to cultivate their mental power all the way to the absolute nightmare realm.
However, if he wants to improve, there might be some major drawbacks. I suspect that his spiritual power and physical body have been separated in order to reforge his physical body.
The powerhouses of the southern sect cultivated their mentality. Their physical strength was not too strong, and they usually entered rank-9 with rank-5 or 6 golden bodies.
Perhaps in the later stages, their spiritual power was too strong, and their physical bodies could no longer contain it, resulting in separation ..."
Although Lu Zhen didn't say anything in the realm domain, he was extremely wise at this moment and analyzed, "There's a problem with cultivating mental energy techniques. It's easy to go to the extreme!
The progress of the Golden body was too slow. In the later stage, he even had the urge to abandon his physical body and simply use his spiritual power to manifest as his original body, no longer bound by the shackles of the Golden body.
This was the problem of the southern sect!
"As for the northern faction, they're also too extreme. They're walking the path of the body and giving up on the cultivation of mental power. I suspect that there will be some serious problems in the later stages.
The existence of the precinct and the slumbers of these people are probably to find a way to resolve the drawbacks. "
Fang ping looked at Lu Zhen, slightly surprised. This old man seemed to know a lot.
He didn't say anything before. It seemed like he didn't trust her.
When he arrived and saw Zhang Tao and the others, he spilled everything.
Zhang Tao pondered for a moment and said,"I have some ideas now." The cultivation methods of the ancient martial era were not passed down, was it ... Someone doing this on purpose?
Some paths have actually been taken wrongly, so he hopes that future generations will walk a new path?"
Fang ping interjected,"the southern sect focuses on mentality while the northern sect focuses on the physical body. Let's just combine them into one." To dual cultivate both physical and spiritual cultivation techniques ..."
"You're thinking too simply!"Zhang Tao snapped. You've read the Golden body nine refinements art. It's not about dual cultivation. The most important point of the Golden body nine refinements art is to give up on the cultivation of mental power and focus on the physical body.
There are limitations to it. I'm guessing that it can't be used in conjunction with spiritual power cultivation. "
After Zhang Tao spoke for a while, he looked at Lu Zhen and said,"You obtained a spiritual power cultivation technique?"
"That's right. However, that senior said that there's a possibility of failure once the inheritance is completed ..."
"I know that."
Zhang Tao had an indifferent look on his face. He chuckled and said,""It's just a primer left behind by someone with powerful spiritual power. Once one's spiritual power touched the problem of the cultivation method, it might detonate one's spiritual power.
It's not a big deal. Tell me later and I'll help you suppress it. This powerhouse from Kuocang mountain has quite a strong mind power ..."
Zhang Tao seemed to have noticed something. He glanced at Lu Zhen and said with a smile, "It's a little interesting. It's similar to the crystal bracelet that Fang ping brought back the last time. It seems to be able to restrict a martial artist's mentality. "
Zhang Tao stroked his beard and chuckled,""Maybe I can use this opportunity to judge the other party's strength. If his physical body is not good, then his mental power is the main force. I can take the opportunity to feel out his Foundation."
Zhang Tao was quite confident and did not care too much about the other party's spiritual power restriction.
"Are there any other people in this world?"
"There's also a peak-level demonic beast. "
"Besides the separation of the north and south sects, is there anything else?"
“……”
Lu Zhen answered all of them, no matter how big or small.
Fang ping listened for a while and looked at Lu Zhen in surprise. 'Did you really enter the boundary by accident?'
And not ... Old Zhang sent you?
The conversation between the two made him feel that something was wrong. Lu Zhen seemed to trust Zhang Tao to the extreme, and it seemed that he had been there for the purpose of collecting information. Everything he observed was told by him.
Fang ping looked at the Wargod, who was yawning and ignoring him.
He didn't care if Zhang Tao had sent him.
Zhang Tao had set up a lot of traps. Who knew if he was the one who ordered it?
The Forbidden Zone, the world, and the outer area ...
Old Zhang was even involved in some foreign Holy Lands.
This guy had gotten involved in many things.
He was responsible for everything in Star Town City. Although Star Town City was closed, Zhang Tao could hear about anything that happened inside within a short time.
……
Lu Zhen was still talking when iron head poked Fang ping.
There was a strange look in his eyes.
Fang ping nodded slightly. He knew what iron head meant.
The difference between the South and the North might have made iron head make some connections.
He and Yao Chengjun actually had rather prominent characteristics.
One was born with a golden skull, while the other's mentality could be manifested at rank-5.
These two people walked the same extreme.
Of course, that might be a mark left behind from her previous life.
In this life, or in other words, the martial artists of the new martial era were actually developing in a balanced way. However, their development seemed to be somewhat abnormal. Their spiritual power and golden body seemed somewhat mediocre.
However, it was not as extreme as the ancient martial arts practitioners. It belonged to a path like the integration of ten thousand DAOs, which completely abandoned the thought of developing spiritual power.
"We'll talk about it later!"
Fang ping said telepathically.
Iron head thought for a moment and replied telepathically,"Fang ping, if there's a difference between the North and the South ... What's your situation?"
Fang ping darted him a look and said telepathically,"Me? What do you think my situation is? I'm the one who passed down your cultivation techniques. I've passed down one to each of you, but I didn't pass down all of them. Do you believe me when I say this?"
Li Hansong struggled for a moment before he nodded.
Fang ping was speechless. 'You don't believe me!'
I think you're just comforting yourself!
I've believed it for so long, now I have to believe it even if I don't want to. It's useless no matter what I say.
