Chapter 460 - to Hell with longevity
Ask for longevity, ask for longevity.
To mortals, longevity was a supreme temptation.
The more prosperous the world was, the more difficult it was for mortals to give it up. The hope and desire for longevity would be like a prairie fire, burning endlessly in their hearts.
The Human Emperor was a mortal, a pure mortal.
He could not cultivate, and his immortal destiny did not touch him. Although he could live a life without illness, pain, or disaster, but… it was difficult to resist death, and it was difficult to ask for longevity.
Year 161 of the Great Xuan calendar.
Amid the uproar of the world, Human Emperor Tantai he personally wrote a decree in the imperial capital, ordering the emperor to enter the demon continent in the western region.
As for the specific content of the Emperor’s decree, the world did not know.
All they knew was that on that day, the demon continent shook, and a terrifying aura spread out!
“Scram!”
In the torrential desert, a demon king faced the east and roared. His voice was like thunder, shocking the oasis and causing it to rise and fall. It caused a shocking sandstorm in the desert, as if there was a tornado that swept up the land.
That day.
Outside of Heaven’s letter pass.
There were cultivators standing on the city wall, gazing into the distance.
They saw a sandstorm rolling in the west and crashing into the city wall of Heaven’s letter pass. Endless yellow sand covered half of the city gate of Heaven’s letter pass.
“Human… Don’t push the demons too far!”
A deep voice exploded and crashed into the city wall of Heaven’s letter pass, causing cracks to appear on the city wall.
“We respect the human emperor, Tantai Xuan. We live in the Western Desert and don’t invade human territory. Don’t think that we demons have a good temper!”
The cold voice contained a terrifying killing intent.
“A decree from the Emperor wants us demons to cut off our flesh, blood, and dig out demon crystals. Do you think that we demons are food? !”
The terrifying voice collided.
The more the demon king spoke, the angrier he got.
However, in the end, he endured it and turned into a stream of light that disappeared into the boundless desert.
Tianhan pass closed.
The soldiers guarding the city widened their eyes and were already drenched in cold sweat.
The Aura released by the demon king just now… actually caused them to feel boundless fear.
The demon race… seemed to be much stronger than before!
The expression of the cultivators guarding Tianhan Pass changed drastically.
He did not expect the human emperor to order him to cut out a demon king’s demon crystal?
Such a request was no different from having his heart cut out!
“Unreasonable!”
The city-guarding cultivator was furious. He soared into the sky and flew into the imperial capital.
The news that half of Tianhan Pass was covered in sand and dust spread throughout the Great Xuan dynasty.
In the depths of the imperial capital.
Tantai he had his hands behind his back and wore a dragon robe. His temples were white and his skin had lost its luster. He looked older and older. Thick wrinkles appeared on his face.
He was old.
Just like his father in the past, he was old.
A eunuch rushed in and passed the news of Tianhan Pass to Tantai he.
Tantai he sat by the fire and listened to the eunuch’s news calmly.
As a human emperor for so many years, he had an extremely dense pressure on him.
“Oh… It seems that the demi-humans have rejected.”
Tantai he was very calm. He smiled and the wrinkles on his face began to tremble.
“The demi-humans have a longer lifespan than humans. It must be because of the demon crystals. The energy in the demon crystals can nourish their bodies…”
“Rumor has it that the remnants of the black dragon cult and the Marton dynasty in the western region dug out the demon crystals of the demons for cultivation. With the help of the demon crystals, they have another cultivation system called the Godhead system.”
“They have a long lifespan and can easily live for hundreds of years…”the human emperor said slowly.
The eunuchs all knelt on the ground and trembled. They did not dare to move.
Tantai he stood up.
He stepped barefoot on the floor and looked at the gloomy sky.
“The mountains and rivers are so magnificent now. The people live and work in peace, and the cultivation civilization is high and prosperous…”
“This can be called a prosperous era, right?”
“This is the prosperous era that I created. My achievements are not inferior to father’s, right…”
Tantai he opened his hands, and his slightly messy gray hair blew in the wind.
The eunuchs knelt one by one, quietly listening to tantai he.
“With such great achievements, is it impossible for me to ask for eternal life?”
Tantai he lowered his head and said.
Closing his eyes, tantai he’s emotions were fluctuating.
Being in a high position, there would always be some changes in his heart. In the past, he wanted to be like Tantai Xuan, an excellent human emperor.
He had poured his blood and sweat for the stability of the world.
However, he realized that he could not be as calm as Tantai Xuan. The closer he was to death, the more panicked he became.
“In this world… There are countless cultivators, but it’s not that there is no longevity. Why Can’t I obtain longevity? !”
He suddenly opened his eyes.
Tantai he’s eyes were somewhat sharp.
It was as if he was questioning the world.
..
The Dawn tore apart the Peace of the Earth. The Sun surged over like a wave.
In the Imperial City of the Great Xuan Emperor, the morning court was held every day.
The old human emperor wore a dragon robe and sat on the dragon throne step by step.
The officials below were respectful.
A scholar General, tianyuguan, explained the matter of the demi-human race’s demonstration. This caused an uproar in the imperial court.
This great scholar advised the human emperor to give up on the matter of the demi-human King’s demon crystal.
On the high seat, the human emperor tantai he looked straight ahead.
“The demi-human race was conferred on the demi-human continent by the late emperor. Many years have passed since then. The late Emperor once said that if one is not of our race, one’s heart will be different…”
“Now that the demi-human race has developed in the demi-human continent for a hundred years, I wonder how much they have grown. Will they still submit to the Great Xuan Dynasty’s rule? Will it endanger the stability and harmony of the Great Xuan Dynasty?”
“The monster race is the intelligence of wild beasts. They are called monsters. Their blood flows with the nature of beasts. They are ultimately brutal and brutal.”
“Therefore, pass my order. From today onwards, the taxes of the monster continent will be increased by 30% . In addition, ten monster crystals will be added to the tribute every year.”
Tantai he said.
As he finished speaking.
The imperial court was in an uproar.
The scholars knelt on the ground and shouted, “No!”However, the human emperor left with a flick of his sleeve.
All the civil officials looked at each other as if they saw a storm of blood.
The news of the imperial capital soon spread.
It was like a cold wind blowing into the monster continent in the Heaven’s letter pass.
Boom!
In the monster continent.
The Monster King’s Claw crushed the imperial edict, and a cold aura spread out.
“It’s understandable that the taxes have been increased, but why must there be monster crystals in the tribute? !”
The Monster King was furious.
Even if he wanted demon crystals from the old demon race, this had touched the scales of the demon race.
“Humans, they are bullying demons too much!”
Year 161 of the Great Xuan calendar.
The demon race refused to accept the human emperor’s order and severely injured the messenger cultivator. They threw him back to Heaven’s Luck Pass.
When the people heard this news, they were immediately furious.
Everywhere in the market, there were news of demons hurting people and eating people.
Immediately, the Great Xuan dynasty seemed to be engulfed by a storm of demons.
Year 162 of the Great Xuan calendar.
The Human Emperor ordered the Great Xuan Cavalry to send out a letter of heaven to conquer the demons of the demon continent!
According to the records of the historical officials, this was the second time the Great Xuan dynasty conquered the demon continent. The first time they conquered the demon continent was when the late Emperor Tantai Xuan led an army to suppress the demons and make them submit.
..
When the Great Xuan Cavalry arrived on the sandstorm.
The demons were furious. The roars of beasts resounded throughout the demon continent, and streams of energy rose from within.
However, a demon king suppressed the noise.
They did not want to go to war with the Great Xuan dynasty, so they sent a demon emissary out to lobby.
However, as soon as the demon emissary left the demon continent, he was pierced by an arrow that contained powerful energy. He killed the demon emissary on the spot.
The Great Xuan dynasty had been peaceful for too long. There had not been any wars in the past few years. Many cultivators had long been itching to go. Now that they had the opportunity to go on a crusade, who would not be excited to be conferred the title of Lord and Minister? !
They could not take it anymore. There was no need to take it anymore.
The Demon King coldly gave the order. The demon continent, which had expanded countless times, suddenly trembled as if dark clouds were rolling.
The densely packed monster race rode on the Monster Beasts and charged out of the monster continent.
It was the first collision between the Great Black Iron Cavalry and the army of the monster continent.
The Great War between the Great Xuan Dynasty and the monster race truly broke out.
When all the people of the Great Xuan Dynasty felt that the mighty and Valiant Great Xuan Dynasty Iron Cavalry would easily flatten the monster continent.
The news from the front line was..
The Great Xuan Iron Cavalry was defeated like a collapsing mountain. Countless people were killed and injured. They were attacked by the Monster Race Army to the Heaven’s Letter Pass.
The news spread.
It was as if an earthquake had occurred in the entire great Xuan dynasty.
When the human emperor heard this, he was also in disbelief. The Great Xuan Cavalry was the strongest army in the world. How could they be defeated?
The Human Emperor was furious. He sent out the cultivators from the House of Wonders and rushed to Tianhan Pass.
One by one, nascent soul realm cultivators and infant transformation realm cultivators joined the battlefield.
It affected the battle situation.
However, the demon race had developed for a hundred years. They were no longer as weak as they were a hundred years ago. The current demon race seemed to be stronger than the world imagined.
This battle was very bloody, and many cultivators from the scholar Manor died tragically.
The Great Xuan dynasty and the demi-human race were defeated again.
This time, when the news was sent back, it shocked not only the mortal world, but also the cultivation world!
The demi-human race was so powerful? !
In the Great Xuan dynasty, some of the scholars who did not agree with the human emperor’s actions were also trembling in fear.
If such a powerful demi-human race invaded the Great Xuan dynasty and did not make preparations beforehand, the Great Xuan dynasty would probably suffer heavy casualties. The consequences would be unimaginable!
Thus, the war between the demi-human race and the demi-human race was completely launched!
As the war developed, the human cultivation world joined in.
..
In the depths of the vast ocean.
In the center of a huge whirlpool, towering waves of air rose, and dense water vapor swept into the sky.
The sea water seemed to be boiling. In the center of the whirlpool, a huge whale floated, carrying an immortal island on its back.
White Jade capital was on top of it.
However, compared to the dangerous sea, everything on the island seemed extremely peaceful.
Lu fan sat on it, his eyes flashing with images. It was the war between the Great Xuan Divine Dynasty and the demi-human race.
Lu fan shook his head. He was not surprised by this.
It was as if he had expected the war between the demi-human race and the demi-human race to erupt.
“After all, there is only one Tantai Xuan.”
“The demi-humans and demi-humans can not develop peacefully.”
Lu fan leaned against the thousand blade chair.
However, he did not intend to intervene. After all, only a collision would increase his strength.
If it was in the past, Lu fan would naturally not allow such a situation to happen. After all, the nine Hells Reincarnation had not been perfected in the past. Once a living creature died, its soul would disperse into the nine heavens and its energy would be lost.
But now, with Tantai Xuan overseeing the nine Hells Reincarnation, the living creature’s body would die and the soul would enter the reincarnation again.
The rotation of energy was between the five phoenixes. Therefore, Lu fan was no longer worried about the dissipation of energy.
Therefore, he let them fight against each other.
As for the difficulty of extermination, as long as a heaven tier warrior like the Overlord did not make a move, there would basically be no extermination. Lu fan ignored it.
He collected his thoughts.
Lu fan rolled up his sleeves and placed a chessboard on the spiritual pressure chessboard. His chessboard became more and more profound. The black and white chess pieces crisscrossed, as if the universe was rotating.
Of course, as Lu fan placed the Chess Pieces, he was also thinking.
“The door to Ascension?”
“It is not easy to make the cultivators of the lower three heavens accept and be willing to ascend.”
“What is the purpose of the immortal transformation and Immortal Constellation Realm’s ascension? Naturally, it’s for Immortal Qi. With Immortal Qi, one can cultivate the five qi and rush to the origin realm.”
“Therefore, if you want them to admit and accept Ascension, you have to create a world with Immortal Qi.”
Lu fan held a chess piece in his hand.
Immortal Qi, what was immortal qi?
According to what gu blankly said, immortal qi… was actually an energy similar to the power of chaos. However, it was slightly weaker than the power of chaos.
Therefore, Lu fan could use the power of chaos and the dilution of spiritual Qi to mix immortal qi.
Thinking of this, Lu fan started to do it.
He was too lazy to enter the Dao teaching platform. Lu fan raised his hand and the power of chaos started to rise and fall in his palm.
The milky-white power of chaos was actually converted according to the Taoist connotation.
Each Taoist connotation was the power of chaos.
The primordial spirit controlled the power of chaos and began to rotate at a high speed, causing Lu fan’s palm to turn into a vortex. Countless spiritual energies gathered rapidly and circled around Lu fan’s palm.
On the island at the center of the lake, a strange expression appeared.
Ning Zhao, who was sitting cross-legged cultivating, slowly opened her eyes.
Boom!
A big explosion occurred on the island.
Ni Yu ran out of the alchemy pavilion with a cat-like face and smoke coming out of her mouth.
Her furnace exploded again.
Ni Yu was already used to seeing the spiritual energy circling around her. All these years, young master often caused trouble like this.
Every time young master made a move on the spiritual energy, with Ning Zhao and Ni Yu’s strength, they could clearly feel that there seemed to be some strange things in the spiritual energy.
Of course, these things were beneficial to cultivation, so ni Yu and Ning Zhao didn’t ask anything.
Pill refining, meditating.
Ni Yu and Ning Zhao went back to their own things.
On the island in the center of the lake, countless flowers were swaying and bustling. Chaotian Chrysanthemum and green fern peach were blooming more and more brightly.
Boom!
Finally, the high-speed rotating energy in Lu fan’s palm suddenly exploded.
In the next moment, streams of extremely pure immortal Qi that looked like hazy mist surrounded his body.
“This is the mature immortal qi. The power formed by the fusion of the power of chaos and the Spiritual Qi is purer than the spiritual qi condensed in the immortal abode.”
Lu Fan’s eyes lit up slightly.
After the Immortal Qi was mixed, it was not impossible to build the land of Ascension.
Of course, Lu Fan’s purpose in accepting this mission was not simple.
The Land of Ascension was not only prepared for the cultivators of the lower three heavens, but also for the cultivators of the five phoenixes.
The land of Ascension naturally had to be in the hands of the cultivators of the five phoenixes.
“To build the land of Ascension, in addition to Immortal Qi, I also need some reasons to convince the cultivators of the lower three heavens to be willing to ascend.”
Immortal Qi lingered around Lu Fan’s body as his eyes flickered.
He looked at the nihility sky.
There seemed to be a river of time flowing in his eyes.
He saw, saw the glory of the nihility Sky in the ancient times.
“The land of Ascension, if we want to attract them, perhaps we will use the glory of the nihility sky as a reason.”
Lu fan smiled.
As for the glory of the nihility Sky… Lu Fan did not know.
He did not need to know too much. As long as he let those ascenders see a corner of the secret, they would be willing to ascend.
As for the history of the Land of Ascension, it was naturally up to Lu fan to fabricate it.
Lu fan held the bronze wine cup and drank a mouthful of heavenly immortal wine. The wine entered his throat and made his pores relax.
After drinking the wine.
Lu Fan’s mind moved.
In the next moment, he arrived at the teaching platform.
Rumble!
The eight trigrams array words fluctuated.
Countless array words fell down. Soon, a figure with his back facing all living beings appeared in a corner of the world.
That figure was none other than the ancient emperor “Hao”who created the nine-word array words.
“Oh, it’s most suitable to use the ancient emperor as the spokesperson.”
Lu fan smiled.
Of course, this was still not enough.
Lu fan had never seen other emperors, but he had many mythical characters in his mind.
Rumble!
The power of chaos surged out and collided with the spiritual energy. The world was in chaos.
A burly figure tore apart the chaos. One side sank while the other drooped.
The drooping one turned into the land of five phoenixes, mountains, lakes, and paradises.
The Land of Ascension was the land of Ascension. The dense immortal Qi covered the land of wonders.
This was the land of Ascension that Lu fan had created.
Lu Fan’s eyes flickered, but he was not only prepared for this.
His body flashed and landed in the land of Ascension. It was as if it was above the clouds.
Lu fan continued to construct the eight trigrams formation. The five elements surged, and the origin energy rolled up. Using the five Phoenixes as the blueprint, he created a vast land..
This continent was inextricably linked to the five phoenixes.
This was because the two shared the origin of the world.
Lu Pan quickly passed through and floated on this continent.
He waved his hand, and a mountain peak rose from the ground. It was as black as ink. Lu Pan shot out streams of chaos energy, carving the figure of the ancient emperor “Hao”into the Inky Black Mountain Peak.
Furthermore, the river of time flowed down, causing the mountain peak to be shrouded in the power of time and filled with strangeness.
“Since it’s a land of Ascension, it naturally can’t be too ordinary. The weirder, the better.”
Lu fan smiled.
After resting for a while, he waited for the energy in his body to recover.
Then, he started to construct a forbidden zone.
He had created a forbidden zone. The strength of its aura was not weaker than the ancient emperor “Hao.”In reality, Lu fan had only seen one ancient emperor before, and he had seen it in the river of time.
Therefore, Emperor Hao had become Lu fan’s model, creating magnificent existences with magnificent past.
Such a place would naturally attract the immortal transformation realm and immortal abode realm at the lower third sky.
Forbidden Zones rose up one after another. Some of them had long been destroyed, and deep in the depths, there were remnants of strong Qi.
Some of the forbidden areas were still shrouded in mystery, and they were filled with mysteries.
Of course, the forbidden area of the ancient emperor “Hao”was placed in the most eye-catching position by Lu fan.
In addition, Lu fan had also built a ruin.
The collapsed gate of immortality, the broken signboard, and only the remains and buildings were left, telling of the magnificence of the past.
This was the ruins of the immortal court.
Lu fan smiled.
The general shape of the land of Ascension gradually began to take shape.
..
The five Phoenix Continent.
The Great War between the demi-human race and the demi-human race had completely plunged the five phoenixes, which had been quiet for a hundred years, into chaos.
The Flames of war swept across the entire land, from the west to the east, turning it into a battlefield between the demi-human race and the demi-human race.
At the beginning, after the Great Black Iron Cavalry and the house of the wise men were defeated,.
Human Emperor Tantai he ordered people to invite cultivators from the cultivation world to help.
In the beginning, the cultivation world did not care about these things.
After all, to cultivators, cultivation was the most important thing.
However, after the juniors of some cultivation sects were brainwashed, they joined the battlefield with passion. After they died at the hands of the demon race, many elders of the cultivation sects started to move.
The Flames of war spread to the cultivation world.
The human emperor sensed the seriousness of the situation and personally came to the straw hut to ask Xue Tao, who was living in seclusion here, to help.
Xue Tao looked at the old human emperor and actually felt a little unfamiliar.
He was still young, but the human emperor was already old.
“Your Majesty… This is the last thing I will do for Your Majesty.”
“This matter is over. I will no longer care about the matters of Great Xuan.”
Xue Tao looked at Tantai he and said.
Tantai he was slightly stunned, but in the end, he still agreed.
He wanted to live forever, he wanted to live forever!
Looking at Xue Tao, whose face was still full of life, his desire to live forever… became even stronger.
When Xue Tao heard this, regret flashed across his face.
Finally, Xue Tao made his move.
After cultivating bitterly for a hundred years and fighting in the giant mirror, the current Xue Tao had stepped into the venerable creation realm.
As the only venerable creation who had joined the war between humans and demons, he easily turned the tide of the battle.
Xue Tao killed a Yang God realm demon king with a spear, took away his demon crystal, and gave it to tantai he.
Boom!
Right after Xue Tao made his move, in the depths of the demon continent.
The talented demon Monkey King made his move.
With a sweep of his staff, he fought Xue Tao in the wilderness. Xue Tao, who was at the venerable creation realm, was killed in the desert and was beaten miserably.
“Because of you, there is no chance of reconciliation between the demon race and human race!”
The Demon Monkey King was cold.
With a sweep of his staff,.
The ground collapsed.
Lu Jiulan’s body appeared out of nowhere and blocked the iron staff of the Demon Monkey King.
Xue Tao was covered in blood. He knelt in the desert and looked at the demon Monkey King with guilt. He limped and disappeared into the sand.
This battle.
Seemed to be the end of the war between the humans and the demons.
However, although the war had ended, there were cracks between the humans and the demons. The demon continent split into the Great Xuan dynasty.
Great Xuan Imperial capital.
In the depths of the palace.
Tantai he sat barefoot in the quiet corridor. He held a blood-stained demon crystal in his hand.
The demon crystal reflected light and was filled with a charming luster. However, there were cracks on it. These were the cracks that Xue Tao broke the demon crystal.
Kacha Kacha..
Tantai he exerted all his strength and wanted to crush the demon crystal.
Even though the demon crystal was filled with cracks, he still squeezed it with great strength.
Finally, the demon crystal shattered.
Crash..
The thick liquid in the demon crystal dripped down and filled a golden bowl.
Tantai he’s hand was trembling. He picked up the Golden Bowl and drank it in one gulp, full of hope.
The Golden Bowl fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Tantai he took a few steps and arrived in front of the mirror.
He looked at his old and decrepit self in the mirror, his wrinkled self that had not changed in the slightest.
Suddenly, he began to laugh maniacally.
As he laughed, his stomach felt like it was being twisted. Black blood immediately spurted out and stained the mirror.
“Longevity…”
“F * ck your longevity!”
..
Year 166 of the Great Xuan calendar.
The war between humans and demons ended after four years. The Human Emperor Wore Demon King Demon Crystal and was seriously ill for five days.
In the same year, the human emperor had no hope of living forever and became the crown prince.
