Qin Mu Sharpens His Knife

Chapter 1670 Qin Mu Sharpens His Knife

Shang Pingyin met Longshan Sanren again, and his Taoist faith almost collapsed on the spot.

He still remembers the battle at the Xuanwu Palace in Beitianhe.

That was the biggest defeat in his life!

He led the Tianhe Navy, the Shenwu Guards and the Beiluo Shimen, but was defeated by Longshan Sanren's Liuli Qingtian Pillar formation. The casualties were so heavy that these four armies were almost expelled from the Heavenly Court, and he was unable to recover for hundreds of thousands of years!

His palms were also trembling a little. The formation that Longshan Sanren had used back then still seemed very crude now. After 600,000 years of development, the formation and numerology had also improved. Now Shang Pingyin could easily crack Longshan Sanren's formation.

But, will Longshan Sanren not make any progress?

For someone with such extraordinary intelligence, how terrifying would the progress he made in these 600,000 years be?

Meng Yungui looked up at the Dragon Qilin standing at the top of the twenty-eight heavens, his heart filled with respect and awe.

There has been no consensus on who is the number one master in heaven. Some say that Shang Pingyin is eternal and is the number one master in heaven. Others say that Yue Tingge is extremely talented and his intelligence far exceeds that of Shang Pingyin. Others say that Meng Yungui is even better than Shang Pingyin.

But there is no such debate about the world's number one master.

There is only one number one master in the world, and that is Longshan Sanren, who was famous throughout the world during the Longhan era but suddenly disappeared!

Longshan Sanren can be said to be the god in the hearts of all heavenly masters in history!

This name means invincible!

Prince Youming was a little worried. Shang Pingyin and Meng Yungui didn't know the secrets of the battle that year, but he knew it clearly.

Back then, Qin Mu used Long Qilin to fight against Shang Pingyin, and defeated Shang Pingyin, the two Shenwu guards, the Tianhe navy, and the Beiluo Shimen, thus making Long Qilin famous!

And the person who came now is just Long Qilin, a sloppy guy with nothing but good looks. Can Long Qilin really defeat Shang Pingyin and maintain his undefeated myth?

He really had no confidence.

Long Qilin didn't have much confidence either.

Although he had studied the art of numerology and formations diligently over the years and his attainments were far beyond what he had in the past, he was still a little nervous about facing off against a battle-hardened master like Shang Pingyin.

"I can't lose my own face!"

Long Qilin secretly encouraged himself: "I have learned the art of formation over the years, although I am not as good as the leader, but Yankang's formation is much better than those bumpkins in the heaven! More importantly, the Glazed Blue Sky Pillar has been reforged by the blind master and the mute master, and it is much better than before! I can win this battle!"

As soon as he thought about it, he activated the Glazed Blue Sky Banner!

The soldiers of the Yuhua Camp who were in the Glazed Blue Sky Tower immediately felt the changes in the formations in the twenty-eight heavens. They were involuntarily lifted up by the formations. Their magic powers overflowed and connected with one formation after another, changing with the changes in the formations!

At the same time, they felt that they were connected to precious treasures and controlled tremendous power, and they couldn't help but feel surprised and happy!

However, Meng Yungui, who was also in the Twenty-Eight Heavens, was a little hesitant. The soldiers of the Yuhua Camp could not see it, but he could see that Longshan Sanren was a little slow in changing the formation.

"Longshan Sanren hasn't been out for hundreds of thousands of years, so he's probably a little rusty."

Meng Yungui's heart moved slightly: "I will help him get familiar with the changes in the formation first, which will definitely help him get familiar with it again."

His spiritual consciousness fluctuated and turned into a voice that sounded in Long Qilin's mind, instructing Long Qilin how to change the formation.

Long Qilin urged the Glazed Blue Sky Banner to kill the two Shenwu guards. With Meng Yungui's guidance, he gradually relaxed and the formation became more and more flexible.

The Heavenly Army is approaching the Metaverse. The first wave of advance troops has entered the Metaverse and started a tentative attack in order to test the weak points of the Metaverse's defense.

The territory of the Metaverse is vast, with countless worlds of the heavens nearby. In the past, the Metaverse could accommodate the three heavenly courts of Longhan, Xiaohan, and Longxiao. The military power of the heavenly courts was just a drop in the ocean in the Metaverse.

The defense of Yankang and Wuyou Township cannot be comprehensive, so attacking from the weak points is the most labor-saving way.

The advance troops of gods and demons that entered the Metaverse were galloping everywhere, burning, killing and looting. Yankang did not occupy the entire Metaverse. There were still large and small kingdoms of gods in the Metaverse. These kingdoms of gods were not Yankang's territories, and some were even enemy countries, which immediately surrendered to the advance troops of Heaven.

Some were vassal states of Yankang, who fought hard while asking Yankang for help. Many small countries surrendered upon hearing the news without any resistance.

Before the main force of Heaven arrived at the Metaverse, one third of the territory of the Metaverse had already fallen into the hands of Heaven.

When the main force of the Heavenly Court appeared above the Metaverse, the world barrier of the Metaverse was directly crushed, like an egg being peeled off its shell, exposed to the Heavenly Court's army.

Magnificent palaces floated in the sky, and countless gods and demons stood above the clouds. The gods and demons in heaven were venting their emotions from the past ten years of journey. The thunder and lightning of Lei Gong and Dian Mu fell from the sky with a crackling sound, splitting the area below into scorched earth.

The armies of gods and demons from Heaven marched into various kingdoms of gods, and those kingdoms of gods suffered immediately. The Heavenly army had traveled a long distance, and these gods and demons were full of anger with nowhere to vent. When they arrived in the Metaverse, they finally had the opportunity to vent, so they naturally acted arrogantly and there were incidents of burning, killing, looting, and bullying of men and women.

Some soldiers even led the people to loot and destroy many cities, beheading the residents of these kingdoms of God and using their heads as military merits.

What's worse, some people looted the treasury of the Kingdom of the Divine Realm and even entered the harem of the emperor of the Divine Realm, killed the emperor, and played in the harem day and night.

The generals in the Heavenly Court all turned a blind eye to this. This time during the expedition to the Yuan Realm, the soldiers needed to vent their anger, otherwise something might happen, so they allowed them to do whatever they wanted.

After more than ten days, Emperor Haotian issued an order, saying, "Tell them not to make too much trouble."

The main generals received the order and ordered the military to be reorganized, and only then did the soldiers behave themselves a little more calmly.

After this looting, all the military commanders plundered huge amounts of wealth, including baggage, food, fodder and slaves. Everyone was happy. However, the kingdoms of the gods that surrendered to the Heavenly Court were in a mess, and their countries were basically destroyed.

After several days of repairs, Emperor Haotian issued an order: "Northern Sky Black Emperor, lead the forty armies of Northern Sky and march from the northern Kan land of Yuanjie."

The original Black Emperor of the North Sky, Yin Tianzi, had died, and Nian Guanhe, one of the Five Emperors, succeeded him as the Black Emperor. He immediately led forty armies including the Three Palaces of the North Sky, Hugua, Baigua, Zuoqi, Hegu, Tian, ​​Youqi, Tianji, and Leibizhen to attack the Kandi ice field in the north of Yuanjie.

Upon hearing the news, the Demon Ancestor Mahakala immediately led his army to support and meet up with Nianguanhe outside the Kandi Glacier.

Emperor Haotian issued another decree: "The Red Emperor of the South Sky, lead the thirty-nine princes of the South Sky to attack the South Sea."

The Red Emperor Qi Xia Yu received an imperial decree and led 39 armies including Chang Chen, Lang Jiang, Tai Zun, Santai, Beihe, Five Princes, Tianzun, Sigai, Shuifu, and Sidu to attack the South China Sea.

Chihuang and Minghuang immediately sent troops to confront Chidi Qi Xiayu, and the two sides set up their battle lines on the sea.

Emperor Haotian issued an order: "The Green Emperor of the East Sky, lead the sixty armies of the East Sky to attack from the East Sea."

The Eastern Blue Emperor stationed his troops in the East China Sea and led sixty military commanders including Tianjiang, Dongxian, Xixian, Tianfu, cavalry officers, chariot officers, and formation chariots to set up camp on the sea.

Emperor Haotian issued an order: "The White Emperor of the Western Heaven, lead the twenty-seven armies of the Western Heaven to attack the Western Land."

The White Emperor of the West immediately entered Shangcang and led 27 armies including Tianhuang, Juanshe, Tianguan, Tianjie, Yue, Canqi, Jiuhua and Jiuzhou to attack the Western Land from Shangcang.

The Three Heavenly Kings, the Two Heavenly Masters, the Eight Guards, the Seven Dukes, the Four Prime Ministers, the Three Masters, the Two Assistants, the Five Emperors' Seats, the Five Emperors' Inner Seats and other military marquises led the Heavenly Court's main troops and launched the attack from the center, with Emperor Haotian personally in charge.

Among the three divisions, the Tianhe Navy occupied Tianhe and took the lead in attacking Wuyou Township, which was located in the northern part of the Central Plains of the Yuan Realm!

Qin Mu came to the ancestral Black Mountain and determined the location of the World Tree in the universe. He then sneaked into the Nether City without stopping and headed straight for the Guixu Abyss.

Shang Jun hid in his shadow and asked, "Seventh Master, who is that person under the World Tree?"

"His name is Xu Shenghua."

Qin Mu smiled and said, "He is very strong, right?"

Shang Jun said: "It's hard to say how strong he is now, but if he achieves enlightenment, it's hard to say how strong he will be. I see that his method of cultivation is different from his previous method of achieving enlightenment. He seems to be analyzing the World Tree and then preparing to cultivate his own World Tree. If he does this, it seems that he doesn't need to entrust his own Great Dao to the void."

Qin Mu nodded and said, "Brother Xu and Lan Yutian, they are working on this path to enlightenment."

Shang Jun was silent for a moment, and could not help asking: "If they achieve enlightenment, they do not need to rely on the void, can we avoid the ultimate void being crushed by too many people who have achieved enlightenment?"

Qin Mu smiled and said, "They have this plan. As for whether we can avoid the collapse of the ultimate void, we are not sure yet."

Shang Jun was silent again for a long time before he said, "I think the path they are taking is the right one."

Qin Mu turned around and saw Shang Jun's eyes sparkling in his shadow. He was obviously thinking about the fact that his enlightenment had led to the destruction of the sixteenth era.

Shang Jun, who achieved his enlightenment through killing, no longer has the courage and drive to kill everything he once had!

After he saw Xu Shenghua's method of achieving enlightenment, he was even more shocked, causing him to doubt himself even more and question his own path.

Self-doubt will lead to self-denial in one's Tao heart, which will have a huge impact on one's Tao realm, and one's cultivation strength may even regress!

"The world tree is the way to achieve the Tao, and the Tao is the way to place oneself in the world."

Qin Mu continued to move forward and said calmly: "The way to achieve the Tao in the Dao realm is to place the Great Dao on the void. Although there are differences between the two ways to achieve the Tao, it does not mean that the other way is wrong. Shang Jun, if you continue to doubt your own path, your cultivation strength will continue to weaken and eventually become a useless person. This universe needs Xu Shenghua's reliance on itself, and it also needs your reliance on the void."

Shang Jun's heart of Taoism stopped collapsing and he continued to follow him silently.

When they arrived at the Guixu Abyss, Qin Mu determined the specific location of the abyss, then rose up and took Shang Jun into the ultimate void.

Now that he had the two coordinates of the World Tree and Guixu Abyss, he could determine the locations of all the Dao trees marked on the Taiyi geographical map!

He unfolded the Taiyi geographical map, marked the corresponding positions of the World Tree and Guixu, then closed his eyes. In his mind, the image of the Taiyi geographical map spread infinitely and connected with the ultimate void.

One after another, Daluotian and Dao Trees were imprinted on the ultimate void in his mind, and a road appeared clearly in his mind!

On the Taiyi geographical map, Taiyi's location coincided with the ultimate void, and he finally found the place where Taiyi was imprisoned!

"Did you sense it, sir?"

Shang Jun suddenly said: "Someone has achieved enlightenment in the ultimate void!"

Qin Mu was shocked and opened his eyes quickly: "You mean, someone is relying on the Ultimate Void? This is impossible!"

He frowned slightly: "In this world, no one is closer to the 36th level of the Dao Realm than me! The next person to achieve enlightenment must be me, but I can't take the path of branding the void!"

"Unless this person is not from this universe!"

Shang Jun said in a deep voice: "I sense the breath from the sixteenth century. This being who is entrusting the Great Dao is an enlightened person from the sixteenth century!"

Qin Mu's face was solemn: "Hao Tian Zun, you disappoint me, you should borrow the power of the Third and Fourth Young Masters. Shang Jun, since you can sense this enlightened person, can you sense where he is?"

Shang Jun nodded: "What do you mean, sir?"

"Your knife is dull, I need to sharpen it until it's shiny."

Qin Mu smiled slightly: "Do you have the confidence to kill this prehistoric visitor?"
