- #318 - Chapter 318: The desire for peace and happiness competes with the Immortal King, and the boundless s
In fact, this is not the first time that peace and happiness brings shock. Practitioners of God should be immune to peace and happiness.
However, they really underestimated the shock that happiness can bring.
Again and again… It’s like undulating waves, turbulent and continuous, beating continuously and it’s hard to stop.
From the first time An Le ascended the Immortal Pride Monument, it brought an initial shock. Then, the shock became bigger and bigger like ink color. When An Le ascended to the top of the Immortal Pride Monument, the shock reached its extreme.
But now, Anle has brought them a different shock than before.
“Then…those are the five great powers!”
“It’s not the five three-turn Immortal Lords, but the five great powers who have reached the perfection of the ninth turn! They condensed and outlined the original talisman!”
“Yes, these are five great powers, and they come from the five ancient immortal families. They can form a great formation of divine beasts, which is extremely powerful! The result…”
…
The spiritual practitioners of God have suffered a great impact.
They knew that Anle was very strong. As early as when the Immortal Pride Monument reached the top of the list, he had the strength to fight against the Young Emperor Haolei and defeat him.
The combat power of Young Emperor Haolei was probably comparable to that of a late-level Immortal Lord of Rank 7 at that time.
However, there is still an extremely long gap between him and the great power.
Because the great power is condensed and outlined out of the source talisman, it can use the power of the source talisman to burst out terrifying killings. Basically, it is invincible in the realm of the Immortal Lord.
However, in the face of Anle, Da Neng simply lost this dominance.
Before the blood mist of the five bodies being crushed had dissipated, the blood of the soul had already shot out, like fireworks that lasted for a long time.
Five and a half Source Talismans are suspended one after another, like duckweeds that have been hit by heavy rain in the vast sea, floating somewhat confused and unsure of the future.
An Le was dressed in white as snow, and the tyrannical spiritual power swept over him, as if it had turned into a big hand and grabbed it out.
These five and a half source talismans were captured and collected by him one after another.
The five great powers have fallen. This source talisman is said to be an ownerless thing and has become an extremely important strategic resource that can help with cultivation.
The source symbol is of great significance and contains a practitioner’s lifelong practice philosophy and essence.
Although it may not be possible to cultivate a new kind of power when brought to the human world, it is more than enough to cultivate an Eleventh Realm person.
It is equivalent to saying that half a source talisman is equivalent to an eleventh realm. How can peace and happiness be wasted?
Waste… is shameful.
The old sword master looked at this scene and breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was shocked, he felt that it was natural.
After all, An Le had already demonstrated his extremely domineering strength when he was in the human world. At that time, he casually killed the powerful Xu Guangzhen of Penglai Immortal Island.
Therefore, the old sword master is much used to An Le killing powerful people now.
Although, this relaxed and freehand feeling is really scary.
On the other side, Ge Hongtu and Shangguan Qingwan were a little confused. Since they knew that Anle’s cultivation level was eleven, their combat power must have been greatly improved.
But…this improvement…is too big!
The five great powers, and the great powers from the five ancient immortal families, have excellent coordination and can arrange the Five Elements Divine Beast Killing Formation…
Even facing the powerful Immortal King, he can persist for a while.
However, this kind of power, in the face of Anle… was defeated overwhelmingly!
“Domineering, powerful… unimaginable.”
“Invincible posture!”
Shangguan Qingwan took a gentle breath, her eyes sparkling and brilliant, and she was confused by it.
Ge Hongtu also smacked his lips, “Junior brother…it’s really awesome!”
Anle’s white clothes were flying, and the five treasures of light shot back and merged into the body. The five treasures are still being cultivated, absorbing the sacred Bagua Mirror of the Zhenwu Emperor of Penglai Xiandao to improve the rank of the magic weapon.
Because the Five Birds, the most precious treasure of peace and happiness, are actually improving all the time.
“The spiritual gap is too big.”
Anle chuckled and sighed.
If Anle Lian Shen had not broken through, the Soul River would still only be at the third level, and this battle would not be so easy or easy.
However, after the spiritual river reaches the third level, it feeds back into the physical body, making the Five Treasures stronger, because the manipulation and mastery of the treasures require the power of the mind.
The power of the Five Treasures has increased, and after crushing the opponent’s body, the soul will be easier to deal with.
As for the pressure brought by the source talisman, Anle himself is in charge of the source talisman. Although he did not outline and condense the source talisman, the rank of the source talisman is definitely higher than that of the five great powers, so it is not affected at all. .
Coupled with the suppression of the spiritual treasure Sword Bell, the suppression was easily achieved.
An Le is very relaxed and has no reservations. He needs to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys and let the strong ones among the top forces in the world know that An Le is no longer a weakling who can be manipulated at will.
Anle’s spiritual power is floating, and pieces of space treasures are suspended. They are the space treasures left behind after the death of the five great powers, storing their assets.
After collecting them, Anle Soul took a quick glance and found that there were many good things hidden in these space treasures, including many first-level and second-level treasures.
Although today’s Anle has no high demand for treasures, it has become increasingly difficult to rely on treasures to upgrade treasure weapons. If you want to improve… you need holy weapons.
Although these five powerful men come from the five ancient immortal families, it is basically impossible to control the holy weapons.
“It’s better than nothing. It’s a wave of resources that can improve the world a lot.”
Anle is very satisfied.
The high-grade original pure Qi and the middle-grade original pure Qi are some, these are all resources.
Coupled with the five and a half Source Talisman, it is enough to bring about a transformation of resources for human practitioners, and many eleventh realm powerhouses have been born.
However, today’s human problems do not arise in resources.
It’s because after the Immortal Land was sealed, the cultivation of the human world has once again become exhausted. No matter how much resources for comfort are obtained, it is not easy for practitioners to break through the eleventh realm. The origin of the human world… does not support it.
In particular, the return of peace and happiness to the human world must be through an eleventh realm disaster.
After he has passed through the tribulation, basically there will be no original resources left for others to attack the Eleventh Realm.
Anle frowned slightly, this incident really made him feel stuck in his throat.
Anle is also trying to find a solution.
However, the weakening of human origin is not an easy thing to solve.
The rich blood and the colorful rain of light slowly came to an end, and the death of the five powerful men was silent.
You can hear a pin drop in the quiet surroundings.
A pair of eyes looked at Anle with surprise and shock.
Anle’s expression was as usual, but he didn’t have much pride. He knew that… killing five powerful men might… be just the beginning.
Because, in God, someone knows his true strength.
Mighty, not enough.
…
…
In the ancestral land of the five ancient immortal families, as the five powerful men fell, waves of tyrannical aura rushed into the sky, scattering all the clouds in the sky!
Great powers are extremely important strategic resources for top forces, and every great power can affect the overall situation.
The five ancient immortal families are connected by the same spirit, and they are connected to the Five Elements Divine Beast Killing Formation. The importance of the five great powers who fit in with the killing formation is more important than the ordinary one great power!
However, five people died in one wave, which was equivalent to a killing array being broken.
The five great masters from the five ancient Immortal families have a tacit understanding of each other, and the killing formation they jointly set up can withstand even the Immortal King. They are a very important backbone of the Ancient Immortal family.
“Dead… a wave of direct death, the body and soul are destroyed, and there is no way to resurrect.”
Shen Ning’s voice came from the mouth of a phantom. This was an Immortal King with a powerful aura and constant ups and downs.
The powerful Immortal King of the White Tiger Family was in an extremely depressed mood.
“We misjudged Anle’s strength and combat prowess. With his combat prowess, it was so easy to kill the powerful. This was something we never expected. It was not a crime of war.”
The Immortal King of the Suzaku Family also spoke with a heavy voice.
After all, the death of a powerful man was a big shock to the Suzaku family.
“The reincarnation of the Zhenwu Emperor of Penglai Xiandao had a confrontation with Anle in the human world. He should be very aware of Anle’s strength, but he never told us and exchanged information…”
“In order to seize the opportunity, we killed An Le and helped break the seal of the banned Shengxian Land in the human world, but the Zhenwu Emperor did not inform us of An Le’s combat strength information, causing us to lose five powerful men… Hateful! “
The Immortal King of the Xuanwu Family was the most depressed. After all, the Xuanwu Family also lost a Yinxu Boat, which was an extremely precious third-level treasure. There were only a few ships in the Xuanwu Family.
The loss of each ship is a serious injury.
“You dare to denounce it like this to the Zhenwu Emperor?”
“To be honest, Emperor Zhenwu has no obligation to tell us. If we ask, he might say… The other party… is a strong man who has set foot in the extreme field after all. Unless we and the Holy Lords of the five races come together, If you come forward, Emperor Zun might be able to save some face.”
The Immortal King of the Qinglong Family sighed, recognizing reality more clearly than other Immortal Kings.
“What should we do now? Five powerful men from the ancient Immortal Family have been killed. We can’t just do nothing and express no attitude? If this continues, our prestige in God will continue to decline, and in the end it won’t even be as good as some first-rate forces!”
The Immortal Kings were a little emotional.
“The entanglement between Anle and our Immortal Ancient Family is too serious. Now Anle rarely appears in the sky. This is a rare opportunity for us to get rid of him… We cannot let go of this opportunity.”
“However, Anle appears in the sky. This opportunity is not only rare for us, but also rare for Penglai Immortal Island and Zhenwu Emperor.”
The Immortal King of the White Tiger Family spoke in a deep voice and made an analysis.
“The reincarnation of the Zhenwu Emperor sat in the human world and arranged the Ascension Land. As a result, the reincarnation was suppressed and the Ascension Land was banned… For the Zhenwu Emperor, this is an unprecedented shame, and he will definitely find it. The field may not take action personally, but…under the premise of knowing Anle’s cultivation base, he will definitely send someone who can determine the world to take action. “
“I’ll wait…just watch quietly.”
“If the powerful men from Penglai Immortal Island don’t take action, we will send another Immortal King to take action, and we will definitely gain a happy life!”
The words are finished.
Among the five ancient immortal families, the atmosphere was rising and falling, and slowly fell silent. Obviously, the immortal kings still quite recognized this statement.
…
…
Penglai Fairy Island is surrounded by birds and fairy spirits.
The glow is long, colorful and brilliant in the sky.
The waves gently beat against the cliffs of the fairy island, causing water splashes and brilliant colors to reflect the sun and burst into rainbow clouds.
A figure slowly walked out of a huge courtyard in the center of the island, rubbing his hair that seemed to be overgrown with weeds, his eyes filled with boredom blurred by time.
Yawning, the figure waved his hands, then scratched his chest and lower body, and said calmly: “I understand, Emperor Zun can just wait for my good news.”
“How much trouble can I, the Immortal King of Immortal Island, deal with a human boy who has just stepped into the eleventh realm?”
“The emperor is waiting for my good news.”
The figure stretched, and the entire island seemed to shake slightly.
Then, the man stepped out, and the seawater surged away, turning into a bridge to support his body. In the seawater, countless marine creatures jumped out, as if to greet the man’s departure.
“After defeating the reincarnation of the Emperor, and suppressing the Ascension Land that the Emperor advocated to arrange, I want to see how coquettish you, the genius of the world… are.”
The figure gradually moved away, and the water began to fall and subside, leaving only white foam floating.
And the remaining murmurs of laughter.
…
…
In the void far away from the holy realm, a white cloud was burned into a fiery red color. A burly figure stood quietly with eyes shining brightly. Just one look in his eyes was filled with destruction and heat.
“Anle ascended to the sky again, and with one strike he killed the five great masters of the Immortal Ancient Family, and broke the Five Elements Divine Beast Killing Formation. Unknowingly, has this child become so strong?”
The burly figure couldn’t help but be a little surprised when he sensed this achievement.
After all, he had personally experienced the killing arrays arranged by the powerful men of the five ancient immortal families. Their power was extremely impressive, even though it was quite difficult for him to deal with them.
“It seems that the time to attack the five ancient immortal families is… coming soon.”
The burly figure raised his head, revealing a face that was familiar yet unfamiliar to Anle.
This man is none other than the First Emperor Ying Qin who escaped into the heavens. He transformed into the ancient mythical creature Drought, and his cultivation reached the twelve realms, becoming the Immortal King.
When he learned that Anle had come to heaven again, he had some understanding of the situation in the world, and was about to come to help, but he never thought that Anle had already achieved an easy solution.
The First Emperor Ying Qin made some calculations and felt that Anle’s combat power was probably infinitely close to the Twelve Realms.
Geniuses fighting across levels… indeed have an unusual sense of oppression!
There was some expectation in the eyes of the First Emperor Ying Qin. He had been looking forward to it, looking forward to An Le growing up and attacking the five ancient immortal families with him.
…
…
In front of the holy realm, under the Immortal Pride Monument.
An Le’s white clothes were flying, his palms were placed on the ink pool, and he looked calmly ahead.
He was waiting silently. He knew that killing the powerful men of the five ancient immortal families who came to deliver food was not at all the real crisis he would encounter when he entered the heavens this time.
The soul has been transformed in the long river, and after stepping into the level of the saint, Anle’s whole mind has also undergone changes in levels.
Now, even if he knew that a strong person at the level of Immortal King would attack him, he was sure to escape unscathed, so he was not in a hurry to retreat.
He was calm and composed, and even had the confidence to compete with the powerful Immortal King, giving God more of the shock brought about by his happiness.
Of course, Anle’s confidence comes more from the Shanhe Sheji Tu, which has reached the level of a second-order sacred artifact.
With his current spiritual power, which is enough to exert the power of most second-level holy weapons, he really won’t be helpless against the Immortal King…
In front of the Xianjiao Monument.
Wang Yansheng opened his eyes. His face was a little depressed. After winning two games in a row on the Immortal Pride Monument, he suffered a defeat.
He was defeated by an immortal from Buddha Land Lingshan Mountain.
“Young Master… I lost. My ranking on the Immortal Pride Monument is worthy of being among the top three hundred… I have embarrassed the world.”
Wang Yansheng was really in pain.
In the past, he relied on the Fusion Art of War taught by An Le, fused with Jian Changhe, and set foot in the Ten Realms. With the help of the source of pure Qi provided by An Le, his cultivation level improved to the Ten Realms and Three Disasters. However, he never thought that in the Heavenly Immortal Pride Monument Only then can he squeeze into the top three hundred.
“Normal level, don’t give up on yourself. This is a special training for you. If you fail, reflect on yourself and make up for your shortcomings.”
“Every failure should be turned into motivation to improve yourself. This is special training.”
Anle comforted Wang Yansheng and said with a slight smile.
Although the old sword master relied on his rich experience to leave a name in the top 100 on the Immortal Pride Monument, he suffered a defeat when he faced his second opponent.
The old sword master saw him as more free and easy than Wang Yansheng.
“After all, the practitioners of heaven are much more comfortable in practice than the practitioners of human beings like me, so their hard power has been greatly improved. However, it is not a big problem. Once I get used to it, I will naturally win.”
The old sword master stroked his beard and smiled, hanging the Shadow Sword on his waist.
When Wang Yansheng saw that the old sword master had also lost, he felt a lot of comfort in his heart, and his eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
However, because of this, he was even more shocked when he saw Anle ranking high at the top of the list.
“These immortal heroes are not easy to deal with. Their fighting skills are also extremely good and their talents are extremely high. The young master is able to overpower these immortal heroes and top the list… It is really terrifying.”
Wang Yansheng clicked his tongue in amazement.
The old sword master stroked his beard and nodded, feeling that it made sense.
The horror of peace and happiness can only be understood and noticed by true comparison.
If it were them, they would never have thought of how they could reach the top of the list…
However, the old sword master and Wang Yansheng marveled for a while and then calmed down, mainly because there was something wrong with the current atmosphere.
Anle smiled, glanced at the two of them, and then glanced at the sky in the distance, with a hint of a smile on his lips.
“Let’s go back to the Holy Land.”
“Take good care of the harvest this time. Just in time, I will continue to bring some strong people into the sky for special training.”
“Crossing the Canglang River and heading north to attack Yuanmeng, I need a crushing victory, an absolute crushing!”
Anle said softly.
The eyes of the old sword master and Wang Yansheng were bright.
The two of them didn’t say much and followed Anle silently.
Shangguan Qingwan and Ge Hongtu looked at each other and followed suit. The four of them walked in front. Anle’s white clothes were flying, his palms resting on the ink pool, and he landed at the end unhurriedly, as if he was cutting off the back.
The powerful men in the sky around the Immortal Pride Monument looked at Anle and his group as they walked towards the holy realm again, with strange colors in their eyes.
“Could… just let Anle go like this?”
“Isn’t it possible? The powerful men from the five ancient immortal families just watched An Le leave easily and return to the Holy Realm?”
“Didn’t those five powerful men die in vain?”
…
The strong men around the Immortal Pride Monument started discussing.
They really didn’t feel much of the aura of a strong person, which was very wrong.
Anle rarely appears in God. The next time it appears, I don’t know when it will be. There are too many things involved in Anle.
Whether it was the seal of the Immortal Land or the grievances with the five ancient immortal families, it didn’t seem like he could retreat so calmly.
“Won’t the Immortal King take action? If it comes, if I don’t take action, I will be in the Holy Realm.”
Anle turned around, white clothes flying, and said with a chuckle.
Arrogant!
Arrogant!
Many of the cultivators of God around him gasped, shocked by An Le’s arrogant words.
Is this a provocation?
Provoking the Immortal King? A strong man at the level of the Immortal King…that is the one who truly stands at the top of the Three Realms. Although Anle killed the powerful one, facing the Immortal King…there should still be a huge gap, right?
Many people were trembling physically and mentally, feeling that something terrible might happen today…
Could it be that Anle is going to compete with the Immortal King today? !
In fact, An Le’s previous actions in heaven had already attracted the attention of the Immortal King. An Immortal King from the White Tiger Family was even exiled because of An Le.
But at that time, Anle faced the Immortal King… but had no power to resist.
Now, do you dare to be arrogant?
Does he have the confidence to be so arrogant?
Why is the Immortal King so powerful? Because they condensed and outlined the source talisman, which belonged to the absolute controller of the avenue. Once the source talisman came out, the whole body became an absolute domain.
Within the field, he is invincible!
This is the Immortal King, or the Twelve Realms!
And those who can cope with the absolute realm, only the absolute realm, will only be able to compete with the Immortal King with the Source Talisman.
It is impossible for Anle to draw the source talisman after entering the eleventh realm for the first time. Even if the source talisman is obtained the day after tomorrow, it will never be comparable to the source talisman drawn by the Immortal King himself. It will be suppressed and deprived of power.
Therefore, Anle’s move to challenge the powerful Immortal King in the air shocked them.
This guy… is really too arrogant!
The old sword master, Wang Yansheng, Shangguan Qingwan and Ge Hongtu approached the Holy Realm Barrier. At this moment, they looked at An Le with some confusion as he pressed his sword and looked back with a sneer.
Even one of his own people felt that An Le was too rampant.
Is this… a desire to compete with the Immortal King?
boom!
!
Suddenly, a burst of laughter resounded from heaven to earth.
“So brave.”
“as you wish.”
The dull sound carried boundless pressure, like a mountain torrent and a dam bursting.
There was suddenly no wind between heaven and earth.
Anle’s white clothes seemed to be frozen in a snowstorm, so stiff that the strong wind could not move them at all.
The four people behind An Le, the old sword master, Wang Yansheng, Shangguan Qingwan and Ge Hongtu, heard the sound and felt as if their chests had been hit by a heavy hammer, as if struck by lightning, their faces were pale and their minds were almost broken.
It was too terrifying. This sense of oppression seemed to throw them into a highway, and the power of the highway completely overwhelmed them.
The feeling of suffocation, despair, and horror spread from the bottom of my heart one after another…
It makes people unable to resist.
This is… the Immortal King!
Anle narrowed his eyes. This pressure was indeed terrifying. Even Anle had to admit that the gap between the powerful and the powerful Immortal King was indeed as big as the sky.
The gap between half a source talisman and a complete source talisman is beyond imagination.
Big raindrops suddenly fell from the sky.
It crackled, hit the void, splashed out, and turned into pieces of water and gouache.
The rain… strangely did not fall on the ground, but instead condensed in mid-air.
The rain is getting more and more violent, and the rain in the sky is accumulating more and more. In the end, it seems to have turned into a vast country in mid-air, and the whole world is covered with ocean!
It was as if someone had summoned a sea and hit Anle.
“Senior Pei, Lao Wang, Senior Sister Shangguan and Senior Brother Ge, you go back to the Holy Realm first… I can’t distract you from taking care of you during this battle.”
Anle held Mochi tightly, and the powerful spiritual power spread out from the Niwan Palace between her eyebrows, and said solemnly.
When the old sword master heard this, without hesitation, he pulled Wang Yansheng to break through the barrier of the holy realm and return to it.
Shangguan Qingwan and Ge Hongtu had no intention of watching the excitement.
They were no longer qualified to watch this excitement.
After all, they are too close to the center of the battle at the moment. If they are not careful, they may be affected by the terrifying power and die tragically, but it is really unjust.
However, they were really shocked, the Immortal King… really took action!
An Le held the sword, his spiritual power surged, and his blood boiled in his body. His whole body seemed to turn into a peerless sharp sword light, splitting the pouring ocean into two, unable to completely engulf him.
Anle’s eyes were fixed, staring into the void, where the water was gurgling, and a figure gradually emerged.
Her hair was as messy as a chicken coop, and she was wearing a sloppy and simple Taoist robe, looking very lazy.
The man crossed his arms and looked at Anle in surprise.
“What a good boy, he is worthy of being a genius in the world who can defeat the reincarnation of the Emperor… This kind of magnanimity is the best I have ever seen in my life!”
The man praised.
“Peng Lai Xiandao, Shen Tu Luo Bing.”
The man rubbed his hair, which was as messy as a chicken coop, looked at Anle and said solemnly.
When the man said his name, the powerful men around him all exclaimed in shock. It was obvious that this name was absolutely outstanding among the gods.
“The world is peaceful.”
Anle grasped Mo Chi, her white clothes swelled, and her momentum was like a sword, splitting open the ocean that gathered in the void, and responded.
“I know, he’s famous, like thunder.”
“Your reputation has made even me, an old immortal king who lives in the fairy island without leaving home, feel his ears grow numb.”
Shentu Luobing raised his little finger, licked his ear holes, and said with a smile.
“The Immortal King of Penglai Immortal Island… Zhenwu Emperor sent you here? Why didn’t he take action himself?”
“If he takes action, I will naturally… return to the Holy Realm without looking back.”
Anle said.
Shentu Luobing smiled and said: “After all, it is close to the Holy Realm. It is okay for the Immortal King to take action. If the Emperor takes action… it will cause agitation and resistance from the origin of the Holy Realm. When the Holy Master is provoked… it will be even more difficult to defend.”
Shentu Luobing also frankly told the truth.
“However, Emperor Zun attaches great importance to you, so he sent me here…”
Shentu Luobing, the Immortal King, pointed to his nose and said seriously.
“I’m really strong.”
Shen Tu Luo Bingdao.
Anle smiled, what a narcissistic fairy king: “I have no idea.”
Shentu Luobing laughed heartily.
“Xiao Anle, I am not bragging. I am familiar with your third senior sister. I have dealt with you in Kunlun Dingzhong. Although I suffered some losses, I did not lose badly. I can only say that I missed one move. So, you You should know that I am strong.”
Spreading his hands, Shentu Luobing said helplessly.
Hearing this, An Le suddenly grinned: “If you say that, then I know that you are really strong. You were not defeated miserably in the hands of Third Senior Sister. It’s quite powerful.”
Shentu Luobing rubbed the head of the chicken coop: “Why do you feel a little unhappy in your heart after you praise me like this?”
After finishing his words, Shentu Luobing raised his hand, and the source talisman appeared in the child’s hole and in his left and right eyes.
That is the real source talisman of the Immortal King, the source talisman outlined by itself.
The power surging out is extremely terrifying!
“Let me see how you compare with your third senior sister. If you can stop it, you can return to the Holy Realm. If you can’t stop it… I’m sorry, come with me to Peng Lai. After all, the land of Ascension to Immortality is The planning involves too much and the impact is too big.”
Shentu Luo Bingdan said calmly.
“The Emperor said that you have the power of the ‘Year Source Talisman’ given by the Immortal Pride Monument, which is the top talisman… Therefore, the Emperor sent me here, and I also want to see your Year Source Talisman…”
“Just because my source talisman is…”
After finishing his words, his raised palms stood upright and clapped together violently.
Snapped!
There was a loud sound from heaven and earth!
Shentu Luobing’s eyes reflected the source symbol, stared at Anle, and spoke slowly.
“The vast sea…”
“Infinite!”
