Becoming a god starts from planting a Bodhi tree.

Chapter 190: The Pattern of Yanfu, the Pride of Jiuzhou

Among the Nine Continents, Yamafu Continent can be ranked in the middle in terms of both territory area and overall strength.

[Has the structure of Yamafu Continent changed significantly compared to ten thousand years ago? ]

"The fighting between the various races has never stopped in the past ten thousand years, but the overall pattern has not changed. The six major overlords still coexist in Yanfuzhou." Qianzhong said slowly, "God Hunter Company, God Clan, Nine Palaces, Sea of ​​Beasts, Tongtian Arena."

"There are two main changes involving the hegemon level."

"One point is that our Great Red Palace has joined the Eight Palaces and changed its name to the Nine Palaces."

"The second point is that the once largest force, the 'Mother Goddess Church', has been dismembered and replaced by a new church called 'Buddha Village'. They control a power called 'Fire Seed', which, like the Mother Goddess Church in the past, can drive away the strange fog at night. Over the past ten thousand years, their momentum of development has been very rapid, and they have completely occupied the East Continent and the North Continent, replacing the Mother Goddess Church and becoming the sixth dominant force."

【Buddha's hometown? 】

Mu Qing was not surprised at the demise of the Mother Goddess Church.

Without Hela's protection, the demise of the Mother Goddess Church is inevitable. Forces like the Old Royal City are an example.

The old royal city in its heyday, although not ranked in the overlord level, could be ranked in the second tier.

But in an area like Yamafu Continent where strange fog is rampant, let alone the second-tier forces, even the overlord-level forces have to be wary of the strange fog that appears every night.

It was precisely because of the emergence of the strange fog that Hela was able to rapidly advance the spread of the Church of the Mother Goddess in the name of "shelter", and her tentacles and minions were once spread throughout the entire Jambu Continent.

And now, after Hela's death, a new church was born, and it possesses similar abilities. Could it be that the other three demons have interfered in the affairs of Jambu?

[I heard not long ago that someone in the Sea of ​​Beasts encountered the black fog of the sea when they were trying to break through the forbidden sequence.]

Qian Chong said with regret, "Yes, that was the most successful attempt made by the Beast Sea in recent years, but it still failed in the end."

The Sea of ​​Beasts, a dominant force that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Nine Palaces, was originally founded by three void behemoths of top bloodlines. At their peak, they possessed ten void behemoths at their peak, and were one of the best in Jiuzhou.

This is an ancient force with a long heritage, but over the years, they have faced a thorny problem, that is, the degeneration of their bloodline.

Although the void behemoths can reproduce, the bloodline of their offspring will continue to degenerate, with each generation being inferior to the previous one.

The first generation of void behemoths will only be born in the macrocosm and its affiliated secondary universe planes.

As the remnant of the old universe, Jiuzhou does not have the ability to give birth to void behemoths.

Therefore, it can be said that the strength of the Beast Sea has been declining since they moved to Jiuzhou. After a long time, they only have two sleeping ancestors left. Although the clan has been trying to purify and blend their bloodlines, the results are average.

For creatures like the Void Beast, bloodline is both a glory and a shackle.

Bloodline degradation means a reduction in the upper limit.

Over the years, they have tried to break the shackles of their bloodline by entering the forbidden sequence, but they failed in the end.

[The general situation has not changed, which means it is still the same old people? Then, is there any peerless genius worthy of attention in this generation of the Far East Theater? ]

The Far East war zone covers Jambu Continent, Oasis and half of South Desert Continent, and accommodates thousands of civilizations and forces.

Qianzhong pondered for a moment and said, "Based on our observations over the years, no forbidden sequence has been born in the oasis. The Southern Wasteland Continent is not within our sight, and the Yama Continent..."

He paused and said:

"There are only three people who are publicly known, and they belong to the Celestial Clan, the Hunting God Company, and the Tongtian Arena respectively."

"As for whether it is hidden, I think it should not be. After all, the movement when breaking through the taboo sequence is very large, which will cause the dark sea to appear in Jiuzhou. This is a major event worthy of the top powerhouses from all sides to appear at the same time, and it is impossible to hide. But..."

[But I'm not sure if there are warriors who have the qualifications to challenge the forbidden sequence, but because they are afraid of disasters, they choose to suppress it and wait until they reach the ancient road to try to break through? ]

Mu Qing took over his words and said calmly,
[There is no need to worry about this kind of people. They want to use the special rules of the ancient road to suppress the occurrence of disasters. Even if they can cross the forbidden door, they cannot enter the forbidden sequence. ]

[This life is different from the past. There are some obstacles that do not allow for cleverness. ]

Qianzhong's eyes fixed.

Crossing the forbidden door is not the same as entering the forbidden sequence. This is the first time he has heard of this!

The true seed is the foundation realm. Only by breaking common sense and surpassing the limit can one cross the taboo threshold, and then be ranked above the [Boundary Mountain] and enter a certain mysterious sequence.

The key to the taboo sequence lies in the word "sequence".

The Deep Sea, the Boundary Mountains...

These two "holy places" have spanned countless eras.

The ancient inheritance path of Jiuzhou is related to the boundary mountains.

Throughout the ages, only warriors listed in the forbidden sequence have been qualified to enter the deepest part of the ancient road.

Qianzhong had a lot of thoughts in his mind, such as entering the ancient road and then trying to break through the threshold to avoid the forbidden calamity. There have been examples from ancient times to the present, but there has never been any problem...

Is this era different?

[As for the Celestial God Clan and the God Hunter Company... Hehe, they have been fighting to the death for so many years, why haven't they decided who is better? ]

Qianzhong nodded in agreement to this statement.

Jiuzhou is known for the coexistence of thousands of races, and the vast majority of these forces migrated from the great universe in the past. Either they once dominated the great universe, or they migrated here as subordinate forces of the former.

But Jiuzhou is different from the big universe. It is too "small". The civilizations and ethnic groups that once claimed to be the overlords live side by side, so there will inevitably be a winner and loser, so the struggle has never stopped.

Over the long course of time, many forces that were once powerful have declined, but some forces have remained everlasting.

To this day, the greatest dominant force in the Nine Continents is rarely a single civilization or ethnic group, but more often a collection of civilizations.

For example, the Sea of ​​Beasts is the holy land of the void beasts.

And their Nine Palaces is essentially a union of hundreds of civilizations, with the Nine Palaces at the head, similar to the university system.

There are also neutral forces like the Tongtian Arena.

Not to mention the God Hunting Company, they were originally a coalition force formed by various civilizations hostile to the God Clan.

The Celestials appear to be a single civilized group, but in fact they also have numerous vassal groups.

The tribe is named after the god, and is one of the most powerful races throughout countless epochs. Although there are few members and inheritance is difficult, every member of the tribe has divine blood flowing in their bodies, and is born with divinity and unlimited potential.

"Senior, are you contacting us this time because Senior He's successor has appeared?"

Qianzhong said with a sharp gaze that he had heard about some of the past events since he became the master's disciple, and had received repeated instructions from his master before coming here.

If nothing unexpected happens, the person who summoned them is most likely someone from Senior He’s hometown!
[That’s right. You stay here first. When he comes to Jiuzhou again, you take him back to Dachi Tiangong to prepare for the battle of the Ancient Road. His goal is to impact the ranking of the Eternal Monument.]

I was overjoyed and felt like a heavy burden had been lifted off my shoulders.

The situation in Jiuzhou now seems to be as stable as before, but in the eyes of top forces like the Great Red Palace -

Border erosion.

The decay of the starry sky.

The invasion of dark fog from the dark sea.

The random appearance of lingering whispers.

Everything is going from bad to worse.

This once pure land is now declining.

They must return to the universe to have a chance of survival in this life.

However, the creatures born in Jiuzhou cannot enter and exit any dimension of the world at will like the creatures in the universe.

They are born with a certain brand on their bodies, and while enjoying certain conveniences, they also lose their "freedom".

There are only two ways to return to the universe.

One is to fight back with the help of the gap opened up by the Dark Sea, but this path is only suitable for the strongest.

Another way is to create some kind of "transit point" with the help of the universe. As long as they can live in the universe for more than ten years, they can wash away the stigma.

But the second way is equivalent to living under someone else's roof, during which the initiative is entirely in the hands of the receiving party. Once the other party destroys the transit point, they will be greeted with sanctions according to the rules of the universe.

So they had to find a party they could trust to form an alliance with.

……

……

Inside Yangyan Martial Arts School.

"This is the situation." Ji Jingqiu's eyes involuntarily turned to the banner on the side.

The banner I saw last time I came back had been changed again.

This time it's [Congratulations to Junior Brother Ji for reaching the top of Baiyujing and getting the first place in the ten thousand year true seed!!!]

Zhang Xingshan and Luo Xi looked dazed, as if they were wandering in the void.

The two of them entered Yangyan Martial Arts School at the same time as Ji Jingqiu.

As a result, in less than a year, he had completed a magnificent transformation of his identity, from a seriously ill teenager from an ordinary family to a hot new martial arts star in the Federation.

Now, he has unprecedentedly become the...star lord of the East 3 Brilliant Star with the identity of a true seed?
Is this reasonable?

Yang Yao stroked his chin, his eyes full of vicissitudes. How fast had he become “my junior brother of the Star Lord”?
"Jingqiu, are you planning to turn this planet into your dojo?" Yangyan asked.

"Yes." Ji Jingqiu added, "This planet is very important. Next, we need to carry out a major renovation of the urban area of ​​Tai'an City. We need your help in this."

"Will the money be paid by Longhu Dojo?" Yang Yao asked tentatively, thinking to himself, my goodness, how much will a major renovation of the city cost?

Ji Jingqiu shook his head: "As for the money, the bulk will be provided by the Northern Cang Merchant Alliance, the government will also provide subsidies, and there will also be friendly sponsorship from certain forces."

"Beicang Merchant Alliance?"

Everyone looked at each other.

"When did you become so close to the Beicang Business Alliance?" Yang Yao was stunned. The major transformation of the urban area was no small amount.

"On the contrary, they previously joined forces with foreign forces to encircle and kill me, but I killed them in the end. Now it's time to settle the score." Ji Jingqiu mentioned briefly.

"The dojo will send professionals to be in charge of the overall progress. As for the official side, I will have to trouble Junior Brother Zhang and Junior Sister Luo for help."

Ji Jingqiu looked at Zhang Xingshan and Luo Xi.

The two of them nodded hurriedly with excited expressions, knowing very well what this sentence meant.

Before this, the Zhang family and the Luo family only had some influence in Tai'an City, but after this sentence, they soared to the sky!
Ji Jingqiu briefly explained the general situation of this incident to everyone.

This transformation mainly involves the lower-level areas.

The first thing is to relocate the people, which is not difficult. There are a large number of unregistered residents in the lower-class areas, and they are eager to leave as long as they are willing to be given a legal identity.

Then comes the selection of a site and the building of the temple.

In addition to the Temple of the God of Military Supervision, a temple will also be built for the four gods, and this part will be funded purely by the federal government.

Afterwards, according to Patriarch Qingyang, the Dragon and Tiger Dojo would also establish a branch on the East 3 Huangxing Star and transfer at least half of its forces there.

The gateway to Jiuzhou is too important. Even if they have the initiative in this gateway, they must station heavy troops there. Even the Qingyang Patriarch thinks that half of the power of the Dragon and Tiger Dojo is too little. It is just not suitable to be made public for the time being and can only be left for the future.

This day.

Ji Jingqiu obtained the spiritual physiognomy method mentioned by Master Qingyang from Master Yang.

This secret method can make the visualized creations manifest in the mortal world and accompany you after you enter the trance state.

Subsequently.

After making full preparations, Ji Jingqiu took some supplies such as high-energy nutrition bars and stepped into the passage, returning to Jiuzhou.

Originally, I was planning to go on this trip with Senior Brother Shi Xuanzhen, but Senior Brother Shi had other things to do, so he will be here later.

I stepped into the passage and covered the several meters in two steps. The feeling that every cell in my body seemed to be cheering came over me again.

The mysterious laws flow through your fingers like quicksand, difficult to grasp, yet you can clearly feel their existence.

This feeling is so wonderful that it is hard to extricate yourself.

Ji Jingqiu had just walked out of the passage and was about to take a deep breath of Jiuzhou's air when a throbbing sensation from the depths of his soul, like an electric shock, instantly penetrated every inch of his body.

He looked up suddenly.

The portal in the dark suddenly opened, and the door rooted in the void opened to him.

A heart-pounding atmosphere began to spread.

……

"The forbidden door...?!"

Not far away, Qian Zhong, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes with shock. How could such a small place have such a place that could be entered...

Is he the descendant of the Southern Emperor?

he came? !

But as soon as he stepped into the land of Jiuzhou, he triggered a forbidden disaster? !
For a moment, Qianchong was extremely anxious. How could he survive the forbidden calamity so hastily? It wouldn't be too late to wait until they returned to the Nine Palaces and were fully prepared!

Under the dark night.

A light that was not blindingly bright slowly rose in the forest ahead.

He was a young man with a heroic appearance. He stood still, looking up into the void with a calm expression, not afraid of the sudden fatal crisis at all.

It was as if there was a gentle sun blooming inside his body. It was not overbearing, but gave people a feeling of tolerance for all things, as if everyone could find their own nature in this ray of light.

next moment.

Under that flawless light, the dark fog of the dark sea that scared countless powerful men away was like snow meeting the scorching sun. It was forced to retreat step by step and retreat back to the gate!

……

Ji Jingqiu used the [Heart Flame Universal Lamp] to force back the black fog once again.

But this time, the black fog did not end with retreating.

The portal in the void quickly closed and disappeared, the movement was so swift that it seemed like a formality.

Then a mountain appeared in Ji Jingqiu's sight.

It stands quietly in the torrent of time, witnessing the changes and transitions of countless generations, silently and without a sound.

Ji Jingqiu saw a huge stone tablet on the mountain, and his name appeared on the tablet stroke by stroke.

When the name is fully engraved on the monument.

He felt some invisible force casting itself upon his "self".

The next moment, the invisible force turned into a thread, linking him with certain people.

He glanced sideways, as if he had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, colliding with the gaze of certain people, and looking at each other across endless time and space.

……

In the center of the steel city that stretches to the end of the horizon is a towering building that connects the sky to the earth.

In the office on the top floor, an old man sat majestically, with a vision of the sun, moon and stars collapsing in his eyes. He looked ancient and experienced, with no trace of joy, anger, sorrow or happiness on his face. He was as majestic as a god on earth.

It’s just that what the old man said at this moment was a little less serious.

"...The most outstanding genius of this generation of the Celestial Gods is a woman. If you can capture her and make her your maid, I will have the confidence to support you in taking the top position of the head office, not to mention the general manager of the branch!"

The young man sitting in front of him said with a smile: "Okay, okay, but old man, can you withstand the pressure from the God Clan?"

The old man glared and said, "Humph, old man, I am stronger than you think!"

Just a moment.

The young man who used to speak frivolously and smile all the time suddenly had a completely different aura. His knife-like eyebrows were raised, and a heroic aura rose like a rainbow and surged like a tide.

He suddenly stood up, walked to the French window, and looked into the boundless distance. The aura around him was like adding fuel to a fire, becoming more and more intense, as if there was no end!
Seeing Jiang Tunhai, who had been lazy for more than a year, suddenly "stood up", the old man's eyes lit up and he instantly guessed the answer behind it.

Ever since this kid entered the forbidden sequence a year ago, he has been invincible in this realm, and no one can make him so excited anymore!
There is one more peerless genius of the forbidden sequence in this world!

……

Above the endless blue sky, a floating land appears to be still, but is actually moving slowly forward.

The mountains on the floating land were shrouded in clouds and mist, and all kinds of exotic flowers were blooming. Many mythical creatures were leisurely walking through the forest, such as unicorns with white manes and majestic dragons...

At the highest point of the floating land stands a magnificent temple. It has gone through the vicissitudes of time but has never collapsed. Lifelike miracles are carved on the walls.

In one of the temples, a woman was sitting quietly.

She has picturesque eyebrows and eyes, unparalleled beauty, and a crystal-clear body, exuding an immortal glow.

When she is quiet, her appearance is dignified, with a kind of transcendent and holy demeanor that cannot be desecrated.

Suddenly, she looked sideways and felt a mysterious connection. The power of her mind rose up, responding to someone's gaze.

"There is one more fellow traveler." She muttered to herself, her voice as melodious as the sound of an angel.

She slowly walked out of the temple, looking for the source of the gaze in the dark, her eyes were deep, and she whispered:

"I sense his invincible faith that is even greater than Jiang Tunhai's, and his tyranny that is even greater than Si Tianming's. He will be a formidable opponent."

……

In the center of the ancient arena.

A young man with his upper body naked, a vigorous and wild vitality bursting out from every angular muscle of his.

His bronze skin was covered with scars like those carved by knives and axes. They were his glory and his achievements in battle.

His temperament is rough and domineering, yet deep and restrained, and his eyes are sharp enough to see the essence of all things.

He walked slowly along the edge of the stone wall of the arena, gently stroking the mottled cracks and dark red bloodstains on the stone wall, as if he was tracing his own past footsteps and looking for the fighting spirit of his ancestors.

In the Tongtian Arena, only one person can survive every battle. Although it is dangerous, dancing on the edge of a blade has always been the fastest way to evolve.

Only those who have won a thousand games in a row at the same level are eligible to join the Tongtian Arena and become official members.

And, using the corpses of 1000 winners of 999 games as a ladder, he became the undisputed king of this generation in the Tongtian Arena. Later, he crossed the threshold of taboo and became a disciple of the War Emperor, the master behind the scenes of the Tongtian Arena.

Suddenly.

He turned back sharply.

The fighting spirit behind him burned like a raging fire, and the strongest fighting will burned in his chest.

He stretched out his fist and slowly struck towards the vast distance, as if he was punching someone, agreeing on a destined fight.

Not far away, several deacons of the Colosseum who noticed this scene had serious expressions on their faces and were discussing in low voices.

"Who can inspire Tianming to fight so passionately, Jiang Tunhai or Youtan?"

"Perhaps... another peerless genius who has entered the forbidden sequence has been born in this world."

"Unbelievable, could it be someone from the Nine Palaces? Or does the other party not belong to the Jambu Continent?"

"Not sure. Let's report to His Majesty the War Emperor. The appearance of a peerless genius of the Forbidden Sequence will affect our layout on the Ancient Road."

"Don't worry, we have destiny. He has already mastered the most powerful war sutra of your majesty, which is enough to suppress all the waves of fate!"

……

……

Ji Jingqiu slowly withdrew his gaze.

This ended this brief invisible confrontation.

Just in a moment, his perception, guided by some invisible force, spanned endless time and space and caught a glimpse of the "world situation".

There were only three points of light "nearby" that shone like the sun.

In more remote areas, the number continues to rise, but not by much.

Compared with the vastness of Jiuzhou and the thousands of powerful clans that reside here, this number can only be said to be pitifully small.

Moreover, the rules of Jiuzhou are different from those of the universe, so it should be more likely for taboos to arise.

This made Ji Jingqiu feel a little regretful.

Only in the battle with strong enemies can a warrior shine to the fullest and see the higher scenery.

He is not afraid of strong enemies, but only regrets that there are too few of them.

If there wasn't an enemy worth fighting on the Ancient Road, then the test of this Ancient Road would have been half as much for him from the beginning.

[Jingqiu, have you already stepped into the forbidden threshold? ]

A surprised voice came into his ears. It was Aunt Mu.

Ji Jingqiu noticed that a middle-aged man with an excited expression and fiery eyes was walking towards him from a distance.

"Yes, Aunt Mu, I met a god in martial arts not long ago, and successfully crossed the threshold of combat power taboo." Ji Jingqiu said calmly, "It seems that some special rules were triggered just now, which allowed me to have telepathic contact with some powerful enemies in advance. It's just that there are not enough powerful enemies. The warriors of this generation in Jiuzhou are weaker than I expected."

The drooping branches were silent for a moment.

Mu Qing expected that Ji Jingqiu could cross the taboo threshold, but she never expected that Ji Jingqiu could step into the taboo sequence on his own without any guidance!
What surprised her even more was that Ji Jingqiu had previously displayed an unprecedented magical power, easily sweeping away the dark fog in the sea that gave even the strongest people a headache!

[You did...very well! Far beyond my expectations! Compared to last time, your invincibility has truly taken shape, which means you have initially found your own path to invincibility.]

[I look forward to your performance on the Ancient Road. I hope you can reproduce Ahch's style in the past, sweep across the Ancient Road, and fight to the deepest point! ]

At this moment, Ji Jingqiu clearly felt Aunt Mu's emotional fluctuations. She was no longer as kind and gentle as before, but excited, nostalgic and full of strong expectations!
