Chapter 1987 The Mysterious Ancient Clan
"How is it, are you all ready?"
On this day, the sky was clear and the weather was sunny. Empress Tianyao saw the three people strolling in the garden together, but not practicing. She thought that the three purple lights a few days ago were a sign of the three people's breakthrough. It seems that the three people's cultivation has now broken through. If they continue to practice, they may have to "face the disaster".
The Dao Realm Contest has already begun in Xuandu Mountain, but each time it lasts for a long time, even for two or three years, so it doesn't matter if they go to Xuandu Mountain a few months later. Many immortal realm sects don't go early.
As for the Dao Realm Contest, to put it simply, it is a fight between the various immortal realm forces in the Dao Realm, which happens every three hundred years.
In the past tens of millions of years, if it was someone who had not yet entered the Dao realm, it would be fine, but those who had already entered the Dao realm were all unwilling to submit to each other, and everyone wanted to occupy a good place. In this way, there would naturally be conflicts between each other, but if the Dao realm masters fought each other, the consequences would be unpredictable, so over time, there was this Dao realm competition, and each time the descendants of the major fairy realms competed, and the masters watched the battle from the outside without intervening, but occasionally there would be a fight between masters.
In the past two or three thousand years, Empress Tianyao had been to Xuandu Mountain several times, but only three hundred years ago did she let her disciples Shuang'er and others participate, because among her disciples, only Ao Ye had the highest Dao practice and could compete with those fairy kings, but Ao Ye had always been concerned about his identity as a "evil dragon" and was unwilling to participate in these fairy god battles. Later, Empress Tianyao mentioned it two or three times, and then she didn't mention it anymore.
Three hundred years ago, Ao Ye did not even go to Xuandu Mountain. After his master and his junior sisters and brothers left, he stayed in the palace to practice. The result was obvious. How could the disciples of Tianyao Empress, such as Pin'er Shuang'er, be the opponents of the disciples of Youchang Daojun?
The disciples of Youchang Daojun, even the youngest disciple Chen Xuanyue, are already immortal kings, not to mention the other senior brothers. They jokingly called the disciples of Tianqin Palace "crying sparrows". Pin'er Shuang'er Xiaowu and others were not convinced. As a result, they were beaten by the opponent in a fight on the stage. They were in a very embarrassing situation. They wanted to ask the eldest brother to take action, and he would definitely teach these people a lesson, but the eldest brother did not even come to Xuandu Mountain.
This time, Empress Tianyao asked Xiao Chen and the other two to participate in the Dao Realm Contest. It was not that she wanted to regain her face three hundred years ago, but that she wanted to let Xiao Chen and the other two experience it, just as a way to broaden their horizons. Meditation and cultivation are important, but a person's strength is not just based on cultivation. The strength of the master that made all the immortals, demons, gods and Buddhas in the sky fear him was definitely not achieved by sitting at home and practicing all day.
Qianyu Nishang asked, "Empress, this time the Dao Realm Contest will only have the immortal kings and emperors from the various immortal realms in the Endless Dao Realm?"
"Hmm..."
Empress Tianyao nodded, "It used to be, but this time is different."
"This time is different?"
Hearing this, the three looked at her motionlessly, thinking, could there be people from the other three realms? The Buddhist sect has no desires and no disputes, so people from the Boundless Sha Realm should not come, right?
Most of the people in Wuwang Destruction Domain are cultivators of demons. Since ancient times, immortals and demons have been incompatible, and even the Nine Heavens are no exception. Could it be that those crazy demons in Destruction Domain want to come and mess things up? It's unlikely. If Destruction Domain and Sha Domain are excluded, then the only thing left is Wujian Ji Domain.
In Wujian Ji Domain, most of the people are "cultivators of martial arts", but this martial arts is definitely not the same as the martial arts that ordinary people in the mortal world think of. The cultivators in Wujian Ji Domain are all "martial maniacs". They can practice "martial arts" to the peak, with internal strength surging all over the body, breaking through the void with martial arts, and having an indestructible body that shakes the world.
They don't practice those "flashy" spells, and often even sneer at them. They practice their flesh, tempering into steel, and cultivating an indestructible body. Ordinary immortal swords and magic weapons can't hurt them at all.
In fact, in the Endless Dao Realm, many cultivators are afraid of encountering such martial maniacs. Once they encounter one, if their own magic swords and magic weapons and spells cannot hurt the other party, then they can only run away. If they cannot escape and let the other party catch up, facing the violent magic skills behind them, if they are lucky, their souls will escape and their bodies will be blown into slag, and if they are unlucky, even their souls will be blown into slag.
In addition, what makes cultivators afraid is that those who practice martial arts often use "the air between heaven and earth" and "their own internal force" to perfection. Imagine if a martial arts master who has reached the pinnacle of perfection injects his own internal force and the surrounding air into your body and then "detonates" it, what will be the consequences?
Of course, this does not mean that cultivators are invincible. They also have something to fear about cultivators, that is, cultivators casually set up some fierce arrays. If you can't escape, no matter how strong your body is, it will turn into a pool of blood in the array in a moment.
In addition to the fierce formation, there are also some extremely powerful magic weapons. After 49 days, the body and soul of a person will be refined. There are also flying swords that come and go without a trace, and often take people's heads thousands of miles away.
As for the realm outside the world, there has been no definite statement since ancient times about who is stronger between the strong in the realm of silence and the strong in the realm of Tao. In the past, there was a saying that "use martial arts to perform Taoism, and use Taoism to show martial arts", but later it gradually became an endless battle between Taoism and martial arts.
At this moment, seeing the three people thinking about something, Empress Tianyao nodded and said, "Yes, you guessed it right. It is the people of Wujian Jiyu. This time on Xuandu Mountain, it is more appropriate to say that it is a 'Taoism and martial arts battle' rather than a battle in the realm of Taoism..."
"Taoism and martial arts battle?"
Qianyu Nishang thought for a moment, smiled again, and then looked at Xiao Meng'er who was standing aside. She saw Xiao Meng'er with a solemn look on her face and said with a smile, "If it's just a martial arts competition, who can beat her? What kind of skill does that have?" ? The Xiao family, the Xiao family...yes, the heaven-defying magic!"
Qian Yu Nichang said these four words, and Xiao Chen corrected him, "It's the Ancient Heaven-defying Art." Qian Yu Nichang glanced at him, "They all mean the same thing. Anyway, it's right to defy the heavens."
Xiao Chen now knows more or less about the Xiao family's "Ancient Heaven-defying Technique". As for how powerful this technique is? There is no need to say more. This ancient Heaven-defying Technique was the ancient Xiao family's technique. It was invincible in this world. No one could beat this technique. At that time, let alone ranking in the top three, it was called " No one in the world dared to object. Even the other clans who cultivated immortals at that time had to avoid its edge.
As for who created this "Ancient Heaven-Defying Technique", it has long been impossible to trace it. The Xiao family's remaining techniques are all fragments, but even if they are fragments, on the day Xiao Hen attacked, Xiao Chen I have also seen how powerful it is. Even in this ninth level, absolutely no one dares to underestimate it. On the contrary, if Xiao Meng'er uses this skill, it will definitely cause an uproar and even cause unnecessary trouble.
To practice this "Ancient Heaven-defying Art", the conditions are also very demanding. Not only do you need to be gifted, but you also need to have the "Ancient Xiao Family Bloodline". In the past thousand years, only three people in the huge Xiao family can do it. In cultivation, Xiao Hen is dead, and now Xiao Meng'er is still alive, and there is another person...his father, Xiao Zhufeng.
To practice the ancient Heaven-defying Art, you must "reverse the meridians." Reversing the meridians is not as simple as turning the true energy or internal force in the reverse direction, but requires the entire person's meridians to be completely reversed. There is no such "meridian-reverse person" in the world. , at least Xiao Chen and the others have not seen such a strange person so far.
Since the meridians cannot be reversed, the only way is to circulate the internal energy in a retrograde manner. However, no matter what the technique is, retrograde movement of the internal energy is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, you will end up going crazy. And practicing this ancient heaven-defying technique, The internal energy of the true energy must be circulated in a retrograde manner, so practitioners often become possessed by demons in the end.
Therefore, his father did not practice this skill at that time. As for Xiao Hen, Xiao Chen had already seen how that day ended. This man practiced the Ancient Heaven-Defying Technique and not only became a demon, but also practiced the "Three Transformations of Defying Demons" and consumed his life essence. At the end of the day, even if he doesn't come to Xiao's house, he can only live for a few more months at most, and he will definitely die.
Looking at Xiao Meng'er again, in this world today, she is the only one who is most suitable to practice this "Ancient Heaven-defying Art". Why? She has already met the two prerequisites of talent and bloodline, and then comes the requirement of martial arts. Only those who practice martial arts can practice this ancient heaven-defying art, and she is also satisfied with this.
As for the last problem, internal energy running in the reverse direction can easily lead to obsession. She can also solve this problem easily because she has practiced both Taoism and martial arts. She has been a disciple of Donghua Immortal Lord since she was a child. Her Taoist heart is so deep that no one can compare with it, so she can use it. "Tao" comes to suppress the "devil nature". This is why Xiao Xuanfeng tried every means to send her to the Xianqiong Sect back then, and her extraordinary talent and qualifications happened to be noticed by Donghua Xianjun.
These conditions are indispensable, so she can practice this ancient heaven-defying technique without ending up like Xiao Hen.
However, Xiao Chen was really curious about such a technique that could not be practiced. What did the person who created it think? Now it seems that he has a bold guess that the person who created this skill may be... a person who was born with reverse meridians. Because that person's meridians are different from others and are reversed, so he created such a unique skill. Wonderful feat.
Of course, everything is just a guess. Xiao Chen returned to the issue at hand and said to Empress Tianyao, "The dispute between Tao and martial arts has been around since ancient times, but the people from the Wujianji Realm chose to provoke the dispute at this time. On the surface, it seems , It seems that they are just here to compete with Taoist cultivators, but in fact, is there something going on behind the scenes..."
"Well, you can see it too."
Empress Tianyao still nodded and continued, "The people who came to the Dao Realm this time are a very mysterious ancient tribe in the Ji Realm. In the past, this ancient tribe rarely appeared in the Ji Realm. It is said that they disappeared without a trace many years ago. The skills they practice are very weird and terrifying, and even make people shudder in the Silent Realm. But this time they suddenly appeared and came to the Dao Realm with great fanfare. On the surface, they seemed to challenge the various factions in the Dao Realm, but I guess... they were mostly... This is a cover-up, so that many people can be sent to the Endless Dao Realm in a "justifiable" manner. As for the real purpose behind their coming to the Endless Dao Realm this time, it is temporarily unknown..."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen and Qian Yu Nishang's expressions became solemn. Since Xiao Chen could think of this problem immediately, wouldn't it mean that others in the Dao Domain could not think of it?
Those people could naturally imagine that this mysterious ancient clan was too powerful. Everyone possessed terrifying ancient secrets, and no one could defeat them. During the period when Xiao Chen and the others were still practicing in seclusion, that ancient clan The clan has already swept through all the immortal realms and sects in the Tao Domain, and this time, they are naming names to challenge Xuandu Mountain, the strongest cultivation force in the Tao Domain.
Xuandu Mountain is the strongest and largest cultivation force in the Tao Domain. It is composed of multiple forces. It is probably equivalent to the "Tianmen" and "Immortal Alliance" in the human world. Every battle in the Tao Domain is also in Xuandu Mountain. The mountains spread out.
But this time, dark clouds surged in the Nine Heavens, and the mysterious ancient clan that had disappeared for many years suddenly appeared in the Dao Domain and swept across all the factions in the Dao Domain. Why?
At this moment, Xiao Meng'er finally raised her head, her expression became very solemn, she looked at Empress Tianyao, and asked in a low voice, "Sister, do you know...the origin of this clan, their surname?"
Empress Tianyao shook her head, "Even in the Realm of Infinite Silence, no one knows the origin of this ancient clan. We only know that most of them have 'Gu' as their surname."
