Chapter 880
Selection of Night Guards
Before long, the cultivators heard a celestial sound.
A shower of peach blossoms fell from the sky, and lotus flowers made of water formed a heavenly path that ascended step by step. A woman walked down from the top of the heavenly path, with a bright moon wheel hanging on her back.
Her hair was piled high in a cloud-like bun, her forehead was bound with a clear lotus-shaped hairpin, and her brows were adorned with a six-petaled blue jade flower. Her face was stunningly beautiful, her skin was snow-white and delicate, and her breasts were full and round, proud and proud.
She has a slender waist.
Her long, shapely legs were straight and flawless. She wore a phoenix-tail skirt with butterflies and flowers, exuding elegance and grace, yet also carrying the charm of a young, innocent lady.
Her shapely body was perfectly mature, possessing both the charm of a woman and the firmness of a young girl, as sweet as a ripe fruit.
'What a beautiful woman, the most beautiful among the human race!'
Even Wang, who had seen countless women, couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the most beautiful woman he had ever seen was Xingyue.
Even among those who possessed superior qualities, few could rival his beauty. Yet, this Lord Yelan surpassed him in every way, making one think that no matter how beautiful a woman was, that was all there was to it.
Wang Yu was not the only one who was shocked by his appearance.
Many cultivators who had only heard of him but never seen him were momentarily captivated by the beauty of his presence. Lord Yelan glanced at them, taking in their reactions.
It seemed like something they were used to.
As he descended the Water Lotus Ladder to the plaza, his gaze swept across the area, causing all cultivators below the Mahayana and Third Tribulation levels to involuntarily take five steps back.
Wang Yu, who had the highest cultivation level, was left behind, along with Gongsun Jing, a fourth-level loose immortal, and Zhou Long and Zhou Hu, two third-level loose immortals. Clearly, all four of them were qualified to serve as commanders of the immortal guards.
Gongsun Jing is a disciple of the Qinglian Tianzhen lineage in the world of swordsmen. He studied under the Lihen Sword Immortal and his swordsmanship is world-renowned. He was also one of the few people who were not distracted by the beauty of Yelan Shenjun just now, which shows the tenacity of his sword heart.
Wang Yu made his guess.
Gongsun Jing's performance just now has caught the eye of the Divine Lord. After all, he is recruiting Immortal Guards, not a young man. There is no need to find someone who covets his beauty, lest he become an eyesore.
As for why Wang Yu, who already understood the key points, would still act this way, the reason is actually quite simple... he just didn't want to pretend.
Seeing such stunning beauty, how could I not be moved?
Is that still a man?
The brothers Zhou Long and Zhou Hu were also renowned founders of the Dragon and Tiger lineage, which has many branches, broadly divided into the Dragon and Tiger lineages.
He is a disciple of the Great Vast Realm, the One Qi Heaven.
He had a master-disciple relationship with the last human to become an immortal, "One Qi Immortal". In recent years, even though the human race has seen a surge of powerful figures due to the end of the era, he has still managed to achieve great success.
However, it was still those cultivators who were related to the Nine Immortals who made the greatest progress, and many cultivators who were stuck in their cultivation levels made further progress due to various opportunities.
This scenario is the same throughout the entire cosmic ocean.
As the great calamity is about to begin, the world's fortunes are at their peak, and many heroes will rise at an astonishing speed, exceeding all previous norms.
Such fluctuations occur at the end of each era.
therefore.
He is also known as the "Golden Age," but Wang Yu has not yet seen any geniuses who can compare with him; he is far ahead of the competition.
After a brief screening.
Zhou Long and Zhou Hu practiced a combined attack technique and were considered as one entity. Wang Yu had the highest cultivation level, but because he used the Mystic Law of Cause and Effect, no one could see his origins.
Even Lord Yelan is the same in this respect.
The 108,000 Weak Water Realms are a causal treasure painstakingly refined and enhanced by the Heavenly Frost Demon Emperor, directly reaching the Immortal level. If it were the 9,000 Weak Water Realms, it would only be at the Half-Immortal level.
Lord Yelan stepped forward again.
He asked the Zhou brothers, Zhou Long and Zhou Hu, "Why do you want to become Nightfall Immortal Guards?"
The two brothers exchanged a glance.
Zhou Hu responded, "Your Majesty, my brother and I rose to prominence through cultivating the Dragon-Tiger Combination Technique, and we also laid the foundation of the Dragon-Tiger. We heard that Your Majesty has a Celestial True Dragon Pearl and a Celestial White Tiger Bone, so we came to try them out."
This is the truth.
Even if two Third Tribulation Loose Immortals cultivate a combined attack technique and are twin brothers, they can at most be comparable to a Fourth Tribulation Loose Immortal.
To ask for two kinds of celestial treasures at once is nothing short of a pipe dream, but Lord Yelan is always generous and has a rich fortune, so it is worthwhile to serve such a person.
Even if we can only get one of them at first, it's still worth it.
There will always be opportunities to make meritorious contributions in the future and obtain the second kind of immortal treasure. In this world, the only thing that can make a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage risk their life is immortal treasure.
Perhaps there are people who can be judged solely on their looks.
However, most high-level cultivators are still rational and will not risk their lives for Lord Yelan just because of beauty.
After asking the question, she simply nodded, then looked at Gongsun Jing, leaving Wang Yu until the end.
"Gongsun Jing, why have you come to my Night Guard?"
This aloof sword immortal was cold-hearted and spoke little.
"—The True Understanding of Swordsmanship!"
"A sword is not made of metal or iron."
"When one concentrates one's mind on the vast emptiness, a mysterious light arises spontaneously, like a hibernating dragon lurking in the abyss."
"In motion, a fleeting glimpse, thunder hidden in the heavens; in stillness, an ancient mountain sinks into the abyss, all sounds cease."
"With inner energy contained within, its sharpness leaves no trace; with a single thought, ten thousand blades conceal their spirit. One breath severes the void; I am the Dao, this is the true understanding... Is this the book?"
Gongsun Jing's eyes gleamed, and he showed a rare look of excitement: "It is this book. If I were to become the commander of the Immortal Guards, I would serve the Divine Lord until the next era. All I ask for is this true explanation of the sword path."
Lord Yelan nodded, understanding dawning on him.
Finally, looking at Wang Yu, who seemed to be doing nothing, he noticed that Wang Yu was dressed casually but his background was unclear. He just felt that Wang Yu's face looked quite familiar.
"And you? As a Sixth Tribulation Loose Immortal, there are already few rare treasures in this world that can impress you. Why do you also want to become my Immortal Guard?"
Wang Yu answered without hesitation.
"The Divine Lord is like a star in the world, and Yu yearns for him!"
These words were spoken.
The entire room fell silent.
Everyone stared at Wang Yu in astonishment, completely surprised that this casually dressed cultivator would dare to utter such arrogant words; he was simply audacious!
Even Lord Yelan frowned slightly, unable to discern whether Wang Yu was telling the truth or lying.
Since the final decision rests entirely with the will of Lord Yelan, and not with the power Wang Yu desires, he does not necessarily have to become the commander of the Celestial Guards.
Master must have a deeper meaning in asking him to come and participate in the selection. It doesn't matter if he stays in Shuiyuntian for a while longer, since he never cares about the location when he cultivates and basically cultivates automatically.
Before the Grand Assembly of the Origins of All Laws, it's not a bad idea to relax, especially when you're around a beauty like Lord Yelan. Just one glance at him every day will make you feel happy all day long.
There's nothing I can do; he's just that kind of ordinary person.
as predicted.
Lord Yelan chose Gongsun Jing to serve as the commander of the Celestial Guards. If the others were willing to stay, they would start as ordinary Celestial Guards, whose daily task would be to patrol Shuiyuntian and directly obey the Lord's orders.
They are both celestial guards and personal guards.
Since the group did not get the desired result, many people chose to leave, leaving behind twelve cultivators, including Wang Yu, and the Zhou brothers, Zhou Long and Zhou Hu, also chose to stay.
After the selection process ended.
Lord Yelan instructed Gongsun Jing to follow, and the two departed together. Wang Yu and the others were arranged by the divine general Boya to stay temporarily around the core cave of Shuiyuntian.
In addition, Bo Ya inquired about Wang Yu's personal information. Wang Yu directly gave his real name, since the wondrous law of cause and effect concealed it, and unless one was a true immortal who cultivated cause and effect, no one could tell at all.
His origins were described as "a rogue cultivator from beyond the realm" who came to seek refuge after hearing of the Divine Lord's reputation. He spoke casually, clearly never expecting to be given an important position.
As for the Chaos Beast's original core.
He always felt that his master had a deeper meaning in sending him here, that there was a chance to obtain the Chaos Beast's original core, and patrolling Shuiyuntian was actually a pretty good idle job.
Apart from Gongsun Jing, the Night Guards were paired up in twos.
With Zhou Long and Zhou Hu added, forming a three-person team, there are exactly five teams. Each team patrols for three days and rests for twelve days, thus completing a full cycle.
During his patrol of Shuiyuntian, Wang Yu discovered Yelan Shenjun's private medicine garden, which contained far more immortal herbs than Yelan Shenjun himself had collected, making it the envy of many.
There is.
Besides human cultivators, Shuiyuntian also has many sea monster cultivators. The sea monsters are also called sea demons, and they are a branch of the demon race. Their main lineage is also the True Dragon race, but their numbers are quite small.
It was nowhere near as imposing as the hundreds of millions of true dragons in the Dragon Court of the Ancient Demon Immortal Realm.
It is the descendant of a mount personally tamed by the God of Nightfall. It is hard to say how it treats humans, but it is extremely loyal to the God of Nightfall.
Also.
Because of his mastery of transformation techniques and the laws of cause and effect, Wang Yu secretly marked many alien spies and suspicious human traitors.
Upon closer examination, there are no fewer than three thousand.
This scale of spies is truly exaggerated, but these spies do not engage in any outrageous behavior in their daily lives; they simply record the whereabouts and daily routines of Lord Yelan.
Although it wasn't leaked out, given Wang Yu's personality...
We should directly label these suspicious targets as spies, hold back for the time being, and wait for the right opportunity.
…………
…………
In the blink of an eye.
Five years have passed, and Wang Yu is thriving in Shuiyuntian. He will gladly attend any banquet that anyone invites him to.
Meanwhile, the fruit placement area has also been quite well-developed.
The seventh mystery of power is born – [Celestial Dipper]!
By following the trend, one can comprehend the secret technique of the Immortal Rank [Heavenly Gang Force]. This secret technique, combined with the profound "Shattering" technique, can be used alone or attached to weapons and immortal treasures, possessing a terrifying effect that ignores the target's defense.
If not paired with the Shattering Mystery, it will produce a "forbidden" effect on the power of the Law Dao Fruit, rendering one or more Dao Fruit powers "mute".
In other words, it's silence.
It can not only interrupt the accumulation of power in secret techniques, but also crush the target's power of a certain Dao Fruit, making it unusable, making it extremely valuable in actual combat.
There is.
The Cycle of Reincarnation finally reached 100% perfection, and Wang Yu took the opportunity to condense the Cycle of Reincarnation Fruit, obtaining three kinds of Cycle Mysteries.
It is called [without beginning/without end/infinite]!
Similar to the Qiankun Dao Fruit, Wang Yu's accumulation in this area is relatively shallow. Currently, he only has three profound Dao Fruits, and the strength of the Dao Fruit power is not high, reaching only the level of a Three Tribulations Loose Immortal.
However, due to the special nature of the law, it can have a miraculous effect if used well, especially when used in conjunction with the Yellow Springs Dao Fruit and the Nether Thunder Ruler.
Wang Yu was able to bankrupt a Ninth Tribulation Loose Immortal on the spot.
It's not impossible to even attempt to decompose and restore the immortal treasure.
After the Reincarnation Dao Fruit was condensed, he had no plans to delve deeper for the time being, so he gave the vacant position to the Dao Principle of Life, followed by the Dao Principle of Death, the Dao Principle of Darkness, and the Dao Principle of Light.
It is expected that he will reach the standard of condensing Dao Fruits within half a Jiazi (60 years), at which time he will have condensed twenty-two Dao Fruits.
Wang Yu estimated that with his current [Formless Immortal Demon Body], he should be able to afford to condense twenty-five Dao Fruits.
The main reason is since the Dao Fruit placement bar was unlocked.
His Dao Fruit is also constantly increasing, which is a test of his physical body's ability to bear it. After all, it is extremely difficult to have the power of a True Immortal Dao Fruit during the Tribulation Transcending stage!
Even if you're cheating, you still have to take it one step at a time.
Furthermore, one must leave some room for maneuver; otherwise, pushing the physical body to its limits is definitely not a good thing.
That day.
Just after leaving the Scripture Pavilion of Shuiyuntian and having supplemented his knowledge of the Water Element Daoist Canon and the Five Elements Daoist Canon, Mr. Wang suddenly received a message from Gongsun Jing.
The twelve Night Guards quickly assembled at the Water Cloud Palace.
After five years of studying the true meaning of swordsmanship, Gongsun Jing became like a drawn sword, his sharpness fully revealed, a stark contrast to his previous demeanor.
It is open and fair.
"Urgent mission! The minor world of Shuiyun Tianxia, [Angjing Realm], has been invaded by a cultivator from another race who has undergone tribulation. The invader is a seventh-tribulation being..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
The Zhou brothers interrupted them, saying, "That's not right. The vast Lesser and Middle Thousand Worlds are all under the jurisdiction of the Celestial Palace's Department of Divine Descent. Even if they belong to the Water Cloud Heaven, they should be the responsibility of the Celestial Palace's cultivators who practice divine descent talismans."
"Besides, we are the Nightfall Celestial Guards. Our mission should only be to protect the Divine Lord and patrol the Water Cloud Heaven. How could such an urgent mission be assigned to us?"
Gongsun Jing, who was interrupted, was not angry.
Instead, he showed a look of sudden realization, clearly indicating that he had been focusing all his attention on comprehending the true meaning of swordsmanship and had not paid attention to the issues related to the mission.
He asked, still puzzled, after being reminded.
"The mission was conveyed by a personal maidservant of the Divine Lord. If there were any errors, there wouldn't be such an obvious flaw left behind."
"Furthermore, if even the Divine Lord's personal maid has problems, then Shui Yuntian..."
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
Wang Yu, on the other hand, showed no reaction and calmly asked, "Can you handle a seventh-tribulation cultivator from another race?"
Everyone fell silent.
"so."
Wang Yu habitually took over command and said to his teammate Wei Tu, who often patrolled with him, "Old Wei, go to the Divine Descent Department in person and explain the situation to the Divine Descent Marshal. I will personally go to the Angjing border."
"Commander Gongsun and the Zhou brothers should take the rest of the men to find Lord Yelan and ask him for clarification. If there are no problems, they can come back to support me. We need to be careful with Wei Tu; he must see the Divine Marshal in person."
Everyone knows that Wang Yu is a Six Tribulation Loose Immortal.
Even if they are no match for that alien seventh-tribulation cultivator, they can still buy some time.
"Reasonable."
"I will follow your instructions, Brother Wang."
"Then let's set off quickly, everyone. This is information about that alien race. Brother Wang, please keep it safe."
After receiving the intelligence jade slip, Wang Yu fled from the Water Cloud Palace.
I know it in my heart.
The change has arrived; it remains to be seen what's really going on. Before setting off, Wang Yu left the Jianmu altar, which had been worshipped year-round in his inner cave, in Shuiyuntian.
He also left behind the incarnation of the spiritual fruit of the self.
Only then did they set off for the [Angjing Realm], intending to see who dared to directly refine a minor world under the jurisdiction of the Cangmang Immortal Palace. (End of Chapter)
