Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 275: Alien Beast Tide, Yuanshuizhu
"Hey, Sister Dongxue, where did you find this old thing? Why does this person look so similar to that cultivator from another world?"

Tong Yunxing echoed, immediately attracting the attention of several other students:
"Really!"

"It's just an elementary school textbook from hundreds of years ago, passed down from my ancestors."

"Textbook? Why is there a portrait of this alien in the textbook?"

Zhang Dongxue shook her head:

"Maybe it's just a coincidence, the faces are similar."

No matter how Zhang Dongxue thought, it was impossible for her to connect this legendary figure from ten thousand years ago with the cultivator from another world.

This textbook is hundreds of years old. Not only is it wrinkled, but there are also many holes inside. Most of the text about the characters is missing, and even their names are not recorded.

I looked at the printed date on the first page again and it was also damaged.

"But the name of this person who passed on the fire of the Nine Provinces Immortal Dao is really great. Why is this person not included in the textbooks we are studying?"

"Perhaps it's because the time is too long. Even the human leaders can't accurately understand the history of that year. Because of the errors in cognition, this part was deleted in the end!"

A few people flipped through the old textbook briefly but didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, these great figures are too far away, and there is a huge gap between them and the immortal students who have not yet graduated. They are good topics for daily conversation.

However, Grade III nutrient solution is still the primary choice at present.

"Sister Dongxue will start the process of forming a pill after she gets the Level III nutrient solution, right?"

Tong Yunxing asked with some envy.

The latter nodded:

"All the preparations I've made over the years are almost complete. My family has also put in a lot of effort to prepare some spiritual objects for me to form a pill. Now with this Level III nutrient solution, I can officially start working."

Zhang Dongxue was born into a family of immortal cultivators. Both of his parents were foundation-building cultivators. With no hope of advancement, they placed their hopes on him. Over the years, they spent their own resources and connections to obtain several spiritual objects for him to form the elixir.

"I'm afraid that Senior Sister will graduate as a Jindan cultivator. Then you must take good care of us junior brothers and sisters."

Among the major immortal academies, there are not many people who can reach the Jindan level before graduation.

People in Kyushu receive various immortal educations from birth.

It takes a full hundred years for Zhang Dongxue and others to reach the university level.

Although they look young, most of them are actually over a hundred years old.

People like Tong Yunxing, who have no support from their parents and are burdened with student loans, often need to work while studying. That is why they went deep into the Green Forest Sea early to earn their own practice resources and tuition fees.

"must!"

Putting away the textbooks in their hands, several people went to the resource distribution center of the Defense City together.

Wei Zhong sat in the practice room, and the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art" was running according to his mind.

After a while, as the sun rose, he slowly opened his eyes:

"Refining the Void is indeed very difficult."

Even though his own cultivation had advanced to the peak of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, there were no longer any restrictions on his cultivation level in the world he lived in.

But Wei Zhong still found it difficult to find a chance for a breakthrough.

“Bottleneck?”

As if seeing Wei Zhong's regret at the moment, Lei Longchu echoed:
"Your Excellency, don't worry. It's difficult to advance from Spiritualization to Void Refining. It doesn't matter if you don't make a breakthrough for a while. What's more, Your Excellency made rapid progress during the Spiritualization period. You might as well take some time to calm down."

Wei Zhong listened to these words, walked outside, and found a large group of strange birds circling in the sky not far away.

"Green Sea."

Wei Zhong frowned as he recalled the place names he learned from the conversation with Jiang Liyong and the others yesterday.

'It seems that there are more monsters today than in the past.'

Just as far as the eye can see, the monsters circling in the air are like layers of black clouds piling up, forming a torrent that is constantly approaching the defense city.

"Tide of beasts?"

As Wei Zhong was looking around, a figure fell from the defense city to Lingshan where Wei Zhong was. It was Guo Qicai.

The other party cupped his hands and said:
"A beast tide has broken out. Please be careful, Fellow Daoist Jie..."

After introducing the patterns of the local beast tide to Wei Zhong, he left.

"Just leaving me here like this?"

Wei Zhong spread his hands helplessly.

"You are still too cautious. Even though fourth-level monsters rarely appear in the beast tide, it is too rude to leave a 'Nascent Soul cultivator' like me outside the defense city."

Shaking his head, Wei Zhong took out a set of formation flags from the Demon Abyss Palace and planted them in various places in Lingshan.

His fingers kept tapping on the array plate, as if drawing a strange rune.

"rise!"

In an instant, clouds and mist rose from the mountains, blocking out the sky. Any monsters that approached the clouds and mist became lost, going in from one direction and coming out from another.

This is the protective magic circle that Wei Zhong prepared before coming here, the Xuanxu Seven Illusions Formation.

Depending on the difference in mana activation, the power of this formation ranges from the second level to the fifth level, and its main effects are concealment and the ability to bewitch people.

It is aimed directly at the soul.

When it reaches the fifth level, even a cultivator who has reached the state of spiritual enlightenment may see many illusions and lose his way if he falls into it.

Wei Zhong sat quite leisurely in the courtyard, looking at the outside world through the clouds above the formation, intending to take a good look at this alien beast tide from the perspective of a bystander.

Above the defense city, looking at the sacred mountain shrouded in clouds from afar, Zuo Xinyue said:
"That monk really has some tricks up his sleeve."

Surrounding him were many Jindan cultivators, who sat in the command post high above the defense city, overlooking the overall situation.

The most important thing are the three Nascent Soul cultivators.

Among them was Jiang Liyong, who had a very pleasant conversation with Wei Zhong yesterday.

The other two are Gu Xi, the former president of Zhonghu University, who is in the late Nascent Soul stage.

The other person is Han Zhan, a member of the Jiuzhou Association, who is also in the late Nascent Soul stage and is responsible for assisting Zhonghu University in guarding the defense city here.

"Recently, the frequency of beast tides in major defense cities has increased, and it is suspected that some unrest has occurred in this demon domain.

"The higher-ups are still investigating, and the specific reasons are unknown. The higher-ups asked us to guard every defense city well and make sure not to lose the passage connecting this other world."

The speaker was a Yuanying cultivator from the Jiuzhou Association. He looked like a middle-aged man with short hair, a short shirt and long pants, and he looked very capable.

"Brother Han, rest assured that Zhonghu University will do its utmost to defend this city."

"It's good that you have this intention, but don't force it. If you can't hold on, you can seek help from within."

Jiang Liyong smiled and said:

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Han. If we can't hold on any longer, Zhonghu University will ask for help. But in this small Green Forest Sea, Zhonghu University is enough."

The defense city here is not entirely composed of members of Zhonghu University, but also includes some members of Jiuzhou Association and a large number of independent cultivators. Some of the independent cultivators are members selected from Xiandao education, or cultivators who graduated from various Xiandao universities.

Their strength varies, ranging from Qi Refining to Dan Formation.

There are no organizational restrictions. Coming to this defense city is just a response to the government's call and a way to earn some resources for one's own practice.

Seeing that the two of them had an idea in mind, Han Zhan turned his gaze to Wei Zhong in the distance.

"What do you two think of this monk from another world?"

Jiang Liyong was the first to respond:

"Since we know very little about the outside world, it is difficult to tell whether what this person said is true or false. However, since he does not have any demonic aura, we can conclude that he is a fellow human.

“It’s just that the background remains to be considered.

"The so-called world being devoured by this demon world is just our speculation.

"The details still depend on Senior Huashen."

Former principal Gu Xi nodded:
"My thoughts are the same as Xiao Jiang's. Before we confirm that it is harmless, Zhonghu University will not let it enter the defense city."

Han Zhan breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the two of them would get carried away and trust that person unconditionally. But now he was overthinking:

"It's good that you two can think this way, but the wars in other places have been intense recently, and I'm afraid that we can't spare a Divine Transformation cultivator in a short time. Fellow Daoist Jie will have to wait for some time."

……

While the few people were talking, many monsters had already passed through the forest and approached the defense city.

On the city walls, runes flickered and fired out spells, including ice arrows, fireballs, wooden thorns... It was like a sea of ​​spells that harvested the flying monsters hovering in the air outside the city and the beasts running on the ground.

Rows of monsters fell like wheat, and their companions stepped on their corpses and continued to move forward.

This was the first time Wei Zhong had seen such a large-scale war since the war between humans and demons.

The impact of the beast tide in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountains before was simply incomparable to this.

The scale is several levels higher.

There were first-, second-, and even quite a few third-level monsters mixed in there, carrying the power of magic and approaching the defense city.

Figures flew out of the city and took them down one by one.

Various magical instruments in their hands were used, and brilliant spiritual light burst out, which was a feast for Wei Zhong's eyes.

“Not bad, not bad. Although the methods of the Nine Provinces’ weapon refiners are different from those of the human world, they are still powerful and very pure.

“Gold is gold, wood is wood, most of them are single attributes, and there are very few instruments with multiple attributes.

"It is pure strength. Under the influence of mana, there is no interference from other attributes, and the power intensity can be raised to a higher level.

"The only pity is that these weapons look a bit flimsy. Is it because too little material was used?"

While they were in doubt, the battle of Jindan on the city had already determined the winners.

A man used the fire sword in his hand to cut a green-feathered dragon into two halves. The whole body of the bird suddenly caught fire, like hot oil meeting fire, and exploded when it fell below.

Flames splashed everywhere, burning countless monsters to death.

"Brother Xu, this move is too wasteful. That third-level Jade Feather Dragon has many good things on it. I don't know how many resources are wasted like this."

The latter just smiled and revealed a green demon pill in his hand:
"I have already taken the demon pill. As for the other scales and claws, I don't care. If you want them, you can go look for them in the wreckage below."

After saying this, he leaped and rode on the flying sword to the next battlefield.

"Xu Huanwen, this person is too arrogant."

"Arrogant. If I had his ability, I would be even more arrogant than him."

“During college, he entered the Jindan stage in just two hundred years, and reached the peak of the Jindan stage in the early three hundred years. He is expected to reach the Yuanying stage. He is recognized as a Yuanying seed figure.

"Currently, Zhonghu University is even interested in training him as the next president, and even the Kyushu Association has extended an olive branch to him. Such a bright future is not something that ordinary people can compare to."

Wei Zhong looked at the fire sword from afar and suddenly felt some inexplicable meaning from it.

"It is somewhat similar to the idea of ​​'Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art', both of which are about greatly condensing spiritual power. This boy used fire magic repeatedly, without any worries about exhausting his spiritual power.

"The power of his magic is far beyond that of his peers."

Suddenly, his spiritual sense moved, and he sensed a monster approaching rapidly not far away. Wei Zhong increased his spiritual power input and raised the level of the formation to another level.

"This is strange, Guo Qicai once said that few fourth-level monsters would approach the Green Forest Sea, so why is it different today?

"And this monster doesn't seem ordinary!"

An oversized green-feathered dragon tore through the wind, shuttled out from the forest and joined the battlefield.

Just a circle, the strong wind it stirred up was enough to blow away a large number of Jindan cultivators outside the city.

"So fast!"

Wei Zhong's eyes lit up slightly as he saw the feathers on the green-feathered dragon undulating like green water waves. All the spiritual energy approaching the dragon fluctuated according to some special pattern, with several mysterious runes interspersed in it.

"The power of blood?"

It was the first time that Wei Zhong had seen such a special monster. It was simply born with supernatural powers, and all the spiritual energy in the world turned into a help for its escape.

"This bird's escape speed is several levels faster than that of an ordinary Nascent Soul. This defense city is in trouble."

Just as the bird was about to rush towards the most arrogant Xu Huanwen, a golden light suddenly passed through the city and slashed towards the hind claws of the Green-Feathered Dragon at the critical moment, forcing it to retreat.

"Beast!"

An old figure flew out, it was Gu Xi.

His white hair was all standing up, and his face was dignified without anger. He grabbed the golden light, and immediately a golden sword appeared in his hand.

He raised the sword and swung it, golden sword light shot out, swept past the figure of the Green Feather Dragon, cut it in half from the middle, and then shot towards the large group of low-level monsters behind it, leaving a sword mark several miles long.

However, Gu Xi, who had swung this weapon, did not relax at all, and the fourth-order green-feathered dragon in the distance shattered into pieces, leaving only a residual image.

"Senior, be careful!"

A pair of green wings flew by below, carrying the tornado attached to them and attacking Gu Xi's lower body.

The latter bounced suddenly, stood upside down, used the sword in his hand as a shield to block the attack, and then leaped into the air.

Holding the magic sword tightly, he fell down from above, and the whole person fell down like a burning golden meteorite.

The ground cracked, and countless monsters were buried by earth and rocks, with their companions crushed.

Even the fourth-order green-feathered dragon hovering in the air had its wings shaken and lost its balance due to the huge impact force.

At this time, a black round bead fell from the city and broke one of the monster's hind claws.

A figure rushed out of the city, took the black ball that returned to him, and shouted:
"All cultivators, retreat back to the city's formation."

Wei Zhong stood up suddenly, squinted his eyes and looked at the black ball in his hand, and said uncertainly:
"Elemental water beads?"
