Chapter 598 The Queen Mother Lends Money to the Wilderness!

The heat was unbearable, which was Zhang Ke's feeling.

Zhang Ke was in a state of confusion.

But since he had already fallen into the pit, he actually couldn't have any extra thoughts.

After all, there is a saying: Life is like~~, since you can't resist, you might as well learn to enjoy it slowly!

Anyway, compared with the human king, the emperor and other wicked elders who were thinking about making a big deal right from the start, the Queen Mother of the West's methods were considered mild. At least she gave Emperor You a full meal before boiling him in warm water.

In a sense, this was the most filling meal Zhang Ke had eaten since he set foot on the extraordinary path until now, except for the Peach Banquet. Even after he was full, the energy from the outside world continued to pour into his head, completely ignoring whether he could accommodate it. It felt like a grandparent feeding him - I don't want you to feel that you are full, I want me to feel that my good grandson is full!

As for Zhang Ke's only regret at the moment, it was why he didn't bring his body with him. Now he only let his head taste the food, and what he ate couldn't even reach his stomach, let alone digest it.

Of course, bringing the body with him would be another treatment.

Now it was put on the steamer, with the entire Kunlun Tianchi as the furnace top. The core purpose was not because Zhang Ke's lonely head looked like a formed pill.

In this way, along with the progress of the entire Kunlun Tianchi, the process changed from crushing the medicine to shaping the pill to refining the pill.

The lake water, which was already turbulent, became even more violent at this moment, and the rolling clouds and mists in the sky-high waves covered the sky.

The already towering and snow-capped Kunlun became more cloud-covered and misty after this. Millions of rays of light passed through the clouds and mists, refracted and changed, and the magnificent rainbow light rose to the sky, covering the wilderness for tens of thousands of miles.

From a distance, Kunlun seemed to have grown taller, and its steep mountains and peaks that reached the sky made people think that Buzhou Mountain was back again!

For a time, the mist locked Kunlun, the rays of light were endless, and the wonders of candlelight in all directions aroused the yearning and obedience of many ignorant creatures. Those who knelt and prayed were like carps crossing the river, and those who were more active had already knelt and walked at the moment when the light rose, and went on a pilgrimage to Kunlun!

And for the existence that knew everything, the scene in front of them was also shocking!

Even if it was the alchemy method of this goddess that made Kunlun spread throughout the wilderness along with the Queen Mother of the West, she would sit in the mountains and make elixirs for at least two quarters of the year (in ancient times), and the rest of the time was either preparing materials or collecting and tasting newly made elixirs.

In this way, Kunlun was shrouded in thick medicinal fog for at least half a year in a year, and the light of the golden elixir was reflected everywhere, but if you smelled it, you could live for 48,000 years longer (in later times), and if you were exposed to it for a while, all diseases would be eliminated and your strength would be greatly improved.

Of course, under normal circumstances, there was basically no one who was blind enough to take advantage of this.

After all, Queen Mother of the West may not be as irritable as she was when she was young, but Kaiming and Luwu, who are watching over the mountain, will not let you go into the mountain casually. Do you want to go to Kunlun to get a breath of fairy spirit from Queen Mother of the West?

First of all, it depends on whether you can resist it!

So don’t think that Kunlun’s elixir energy never dissipates all year round. Even the upper half of the entire Kunlun Mountains has been influenced by the elixir energy for many years and has a certain spirituality. To put it bluntly, above the halfway point of Kunlun, even a handful of soil on the ground has the effect of resurrection!

(Of course, the premise is that you can’t be a well-known figure. The effect of mortals is similar. If you are able to climb the "Shanzhen Haiwei Jing", at most there will be some effects such as accelerated growth, bloodline refinement, strength enhancement and magical awakening.)

But those who can go up don’t miss these little things, and those who can’t go up can only envy!

But this time is different!

The scene of Queen Mother of the West refining the elixir this time is particularly grand and sacred, far beyond any previous time.

The exaggeratedly strong medicinal fragrance also exceeded the limit that Kunlun could bear in a short period of time, so that after the rosy clouds shone brightly in the wilderness, the colorful fragrance of the elixir broke through the blockade of Kunlun and drifted to the outside world. The bitter and sweet elixir was gradually filling the atmosphere of the wilderness.

All the creatures who smelled a wisp of the smell showed a comfortable smile on their faces.

At the same time, their bodies, which were either old or had some hidden diseases, quickly began to rejuvenate and heal under the effect of this wisp of medicinal fragrance. Even if everything was normal, their life potential was also increased a little, and the rising strength was comparable to the hard work of dozens or hundreds of years.

A large number of plants that were stuck on the edge of enlightenment stretched their bodies in a trembling, and the plants and trees that were dead the moment before actually had some agility that belonged to living beings in the next moment.

And all kinds of beasts and animals that already had self-awareness were the biggest beneficiaries of this general rain!

They were originally at the bottom of the food chain of the wilderness with the spirits of plants and trees. They could easily control even the barbarians from the outside world. They completed the class leap in an instant. Awakening and transformation were all trivial matters. Even in the wilderness where the heaven and earth had not yet been restricted, most non-human creatures were not keen on transformation, which was a necessary operation for later demons.

To put it bluntly, the human race in the wilderness was strong, and even most of the time they were a complete whole, and had nominal jurisdiction over the wilderness.

But nominal is nominal after all. In fact, there were countless powerful creatures and ancient gods in the wilderness, and not all ancient gods were as unlucky as Zhu Jiuyin to the point of extinction.

Take the two closest to the human race as an example. Yinglong and Qinglong's reproductive ability is second only to Yanhuang, the two signatures of the human race. The former gave birth to Jianma and Fenghuang, and Jianma gave birth to Qilin. Compared with the "unknown" Jianma, Qilin is praised by Jiuzhou as the leader of all beasts. All land beasts can be more or less related to him.

And the phoenix is ​​the source of white birds. Jinpeng, peacock, red crane, blue duck, snow owl, purple swallow, running pheasant, big wind, Baiming are all descendants of the phoenix. Even the birds in Jiuzhou can dare to say that they are descendants of the phoenix.

Well, this has a bit of the flavor of the descendants of Yanhuang!

As for Qinglong or Canglong, there is no need to mention it. The dragon gave birth to nine sons, the four seas dragon clan, and Jiuzhou can be regarded as the blood legacy of him.

Unfortunately, due to the problem of generational discontinuity, the relationship between the wilderness and the Nine Provinces was cut off more clearly (at least on the surface), and the originally noble and high-ranking dragon clan also fell into the mortal world. Dragon liver and phoenix marrow, dragon wings and phoenix wings went from ancient war gods to delicacies on the plate, which can be said to be a decline in family fortune.

And these two are just one of them in the background of the wilderness.

Emperor Jun, who was born with nine days and twelve months, is not much inferior in this regard.

With so many direct ancestors who are strong enough, have sufficient voice, and are related by blood, who would have nothing to do to flatter the stinky feet of the human race?

So, under this great opportunity, the beasts all chose the most powerful one in their bloodline and completely changed their appearance with it. With the influx of bloodline memory and the awakening of inherited magical powers, one after another huge beasts stood on the wilderness in a roar, and rushed towards the barbarian groups that brought them great pressure in the past with a grim smile in the horrified eyes around.

Killing people in all directions

Although this description is a bit abstract, it is a daily activity in the wilderness.

Eating, drinking and fighting barbarians are the necessary programs for every wilderness creature to grow to a certain level. Even those who stand at the top of the world will do more than these small shrimps. The foreign civilizations that are constantly annihilated and extinct in the void are the best true portrayal!

After all, compared with the head-scratching strength of their own people, bullying barbarians is really too stress-relieving.

But the question is, when did the cruel Queen Mother of the West change her temper and give benefits to the wilderness? The degree is so exaggerated that after all the existing wilderness creatures have drunk enough, there is still a lot of Dan Qi in the air of the wilderness, and even the concentration of Dan Qi is still rising. The originally transparent and colorless air is soon stained with a little brilliant color by this dense energy.

The answer was explained in front of those powerful beings in the wilderness.

There are many ancient gods in the wilderness who are powerful but cannot enter the top and cannot get along with the minority.

While they were surprised at the generosity of the Queen Mother of the West, they took the opportunity to vote for free with the idea that they would suffer the consequences if they did not take what God gave them.

After all, as one of the few people in the wilderness who are proficient in the art of Chinese medicine, they have long been envious of the pills listed by the Queen Mother of the West, but they have never had the opportunity to see them. Although they cannot taste them in person now, it is a rare experience to taste them.

What's more, before this, there were a large number of beasts and ants who helped them to try and make mistakes. Seeing that they had no side effects when absorbing them, these beings dared to take advantage of this boldly!

But as expected, this free vote really caused trouble!

With the influx of Dan Qi, while their overall state was slightly improved, a trace of cause and effect quietly entangled them.

Of course, there is nothing unreasonable about eating someone's food and owing someone a favor. It is normal to remember a favor even if it is given for free. You can't just put down the bowl and curse your mother for being an ungrateful wolf. That would be so embarrassing!

Most beings just thought about it a little while absorbing it, and then enjoyed this feast of taste comfortably and limply!

But there are a few suspicious ones who traced the source while enjoying it. Only after this investigation did they suddenly realize how sinister and cunning the mind of the old pious woman Queen Mother of the West is!

She actually transferred this cause and effect to the scourge of Emperor You!

No, why?

You Queen Mother of the West are not a human race. Why do you make this so thankless to disgust everyone?

Oh, Yao Ji is your daughter, and Emperor You is your son-in-law.

As the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son. For the Queen Mother of the West, who has only daughters, this saying is even more realistic. Even if the gods of the wilderness don't like that unlucky thing, they have to admit that among the young generation of the wilderness, and even most of the Mesozoic, Di You dares to claim second place, and no one claims to be the first.

With such talent and intelligence, it's no wonder that the Queen Mother of the West has tried her best to pave his future.

But paving the way, dragging everyone in together, and owing Di You a favor, this operation is really disgusting!

As we all know, thanks to the old story of Yanhuang, Zhang Ke, who inherited the inheritance of Yanbu Jiuli, did not have a good reputation in the wilderness. After knowing the relevant situation, he did not wake up and think of becoming a Buddha on the spot, but inherited Chiyou Xingtian's ambition and made a big storm in the wilderness!

There were more than one or two ancient gods who fell under his axe, and many more who suffered losses during his rise. Seeing that another Chi You was rising rapidly, how could the barbarians, who had suffered great losses in this regard before, let him get what he wanted?

In this way, Emperor You's already negative reputation fell into the abyss, and he couldn't even climb out.

Even if it weren't for Yinglong, Xuanyuan, Dayu and other human beings, Xiangrui put on an attitude of "if you dare to make a move, we will start a war", and even if several ancient beings were blocked by Yinglong and beaten up, someone's bones would be chewed up in this turbulent state!

But now after the Queen Mother of the West's calculation, everyone who was originally a mortal enemy suddenly had a cause and effect bond, and it was a favor, so they didn't curse because they were from the heart.

There is no way, now the top combat power of the entire wilderness has fallen into an unprecedented window period.

A large number of ancient gods crossed the void to destroy the outer domain, and while venting their anger, they also indirectly returned the jurisdiction of the wilderness to the human kings of the human race.

From a practical point of view, the human kings who are the current face of the wilderness will definitely not do things that destroy the wilderness, and the existence of eight human kings is enough to bring enough sense of security to the relatively empty wilderness.

Just look at how heavy this card is when the two of Emperor Heaven and Empress Earth can directly kill into the nest of an ancient existence in the void and kill all around.

And now there are not just two people left in the wilderness, but eight.

With this lineup, they are thankful that they don't go to the void to make Ragnarok. Who has the guts to expect others to invade the wilderness?

In this way, Emperor You originally belongs to the human race. It's good enough that the few people of the human race don't beat gongs and drums and spread the news everywhere after he got the benefits. Expect them to come out and rebuke the Queen Mother of the West? Haven't woken up yet?

And except for a few human kings, there are really few courageous people who dare to argue with the Queen Mother of the West. Even if they want to, they have to find a YY object to replace it.

As for rejecting Dan Qi, it's actually the same as breathing. No matter how strong your self-control ability is, the carbon dioxide that you take in and exhale immediately will definitely account for a large proportion of oxygen, and it's not even certain whether the oxygen is the same.

Although the immortals can control themselves more deeply than ordinary people, and don't have to worry about the rule that they will die if they don't breathe, the Dan Qi has been divided into flesh and blood and true spirits as soon as it is absorbed and felt. The medicinal properties of the Dan Qi after being perfectly blended by the Queen Mother of the West are comparable to drinking a bottle of nutrient solution. This thing is just a formality when it enters the stomach and enters the intestines and begins to digest in an instant. Why do you still want to vomit it out?

No way!

In this case, caesarean section is indeed a good idea, but the easy digestibility of Dan Qi causes it to infect too many places. If it is completely cut off, the gods will not be far from dying.

What's more, death does not mean the end of cause and effect. It is precisely reincarnation that is the beginning of loan upgrade. Otherwise, how can there be a saying that the creditor of the previous life comes to collect debts in the next life? Otherwise, why are the Buddhists and Taoists keen on saving the souls of the dead, and even the monks are far more considerate than the Taoists, and the service is door-to-door pick-up and delivery.

Really just to earn that little merit?

That's worth nothing!

Moreover, merit is a kind of universal currency issued by heaven and earth. The more you have, the better the welfare and treatment in your own world will be. The same amount of merit can offset the same amount of evil deeds. The rule that you can get it by doing good deeds also greatly reduces the threshold.

But at the same time, the total amount of merit is limited, just like currency. More merit for one person must mean less merit for another person, or it is completely negative. At this time, the source of all evil is born: loans!

The principle of salvation is the same as above. For good people, taking out a little merit from themselves to let the monks and Taoists save them can make reincarnation smoother. In the next life, they will have a good family background and qualifications, and even embark on the road of longevity.

But for evil people, even lonely ghosts, demons and monsters, they have no merit. If they don’t want to be liquidated by the underworld after death, they have to find some way. Salvation is the simplest and most convenient way, but its essence is equivalent to taking a loan from heaven and earth.

Heaven and earth give some merits to Taoist priests and monks in advance, and the relevant amount is deducted from you. After you reincarnate, you need to do more good deeds to repay the share given by heaven and earth, and you also have to repay the interest owed for the corresponding years to make up for the deficit of heaven and earth in other aspects.

Only in this way can a perfect closed loop be formed.

What?

You don't want to pay it back, and want to be a leper?

It's not impossible, but the heaven and hell are not as gentle as the later generations. The end of not paying back the debt is to work like a cow or a horse, and become the lowest creature in the world to repay the debt little by little through hard work.

In other words, the merits you get from helping an old lady cross the road as a human being may take a month to pay off as a cow or a horse, while snakes, insects, rats and ants have to do their own jobs for years to slowly pay off the debt, and plants and trees have to spend their entire lives to pay it back.

And whether it's cattle and horses or plants and trees, they don't have enough self-awareness and strength to say no to the world, so naturally there is no possibility of not paying back the debt!

If negative sins are committed during this period, the already endless debt repayment will be dragged to an unimaginable point.

In this way, it is not that the gods of the wilderness do not want to be lepers, but there is no room for them to escape from reality or concept.

What is even more disgusting is that the Queen Mother of the West directly included all the creatures in the wilderness except the human race in this calculation. Although some of them were temporarily spared because they were away, when they came back, their subconscious curiosity would still make them fall into the trap.

It's a dead loop.

Fuck!
