The Richest Man in the Heavens Starts from Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 863 Half Step
For the first time, Du Yu truly felt the crisis.

The energy in his body accumulated more and more, but he was still unable to shake the bottleneck of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Now, not only are the meridians in his body stretched to the point of bursting, but even the 'Heavenly Vein' chakra in his mind is on the verge of breaking.

"System daddy, help me." Du Yu was so anxious that he almost shouted out. He immediately opened the system panel and asked for help from the Tongjie Divine Money in his sea of ​​consciousness.

I don’t know if it heard his distress signal or sensed the host’s crisis, but the Tongjie Shenqian finally made new moves.

"Buzz!"

Du Yu heard a slight sound of energy fluctuations coming from his sea of ​​consciousness.

Looking inward, he 'saw' the Divine Coin of the World sparkling and emitting an extremely dazzling light.

He could feel the light was brighter than a thousand suns, yet it shone upon his meridians and chakras without causing the slightest damage.

On the contrary, the golden light was warm and peaceful, not only healing the damage to his body but also rapidly repairing his soul.

After a long time, the crisis was gradually resolved.

But Du Yu was surprised to find that he did not take this opportunity to break through to the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

The Divine Money of the World seemed to guide another system of cultivation, establishing another system for storing and circulating energy outside of his chakras.

Well, how should I put it, it’s a bit like the system in Western mythology but not entirely.

"Have I become more handsome or uglier?" Du Yu muttered to himself.

Looking at his current appearance from a detached perspective, he discovered that his body had undergone drastic changes, a bit like what it looked like when he first came into contact with demonization.

Yes, he is now like the character in the main world game. The core is undoubtedly himself, but he is covered with a brand new skin.

Moreover, this skin has some demonic connotations, not only does it have two horns on its head, but it also has an extra vertical eye in the life palace between its eyebrows.

Not only that, he now has a pair of golden wings on his back, and his body is surrounded by a thick shell, similar to armor but not armor but the manifestation of energy.

"Damn, this is too similar to the eye-catching appearance of the indescribable server in "Legend." Du Yu couldn't help but complain in his heart.

'Forget it, it's better than exploding and dying.' He thought secretly.

After complaining, Du Yu continued to look inward.

In the 'auto hang up' mode, he continued to refine the 'golden statue' that contained the essence of seventeen ancestors of all Buddhas throughout the ages.

Every time he refined a bit of energy, he could feel that his shell had thickened a little bit, but there was no progress at all in breaking through the bottleneck of becoming a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Du Yu suddenly thought of the novel about the prehistoric times that he had read in the main world. At the beginning of the primordial chaos, there were six creatures who attained sainthood and were collectively known as the Six Saints of the Heavens. They were Taishang Laojun, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Nuwa Niangniang, Zhunti Taoist, and Jie Yin Taoist.

Their methods of attaining enlightenment are different, including attaining enlightenment through physical force, attaining enlightenment through beheading corpses, and attaining enlightenment through merit and virtue.

But no matter how one attains Hun Yuan, it is nothing more than 'Three thousand great ways, one should choose one'. In the end, all different paths converge into one, and one reaches the ultimate in cultivation.

Therefore, there is no distinction between high and low in the Tao, otherwise the Tao is not the Tao.

However, there was one common point that they all achieved enlightenment but did not ignore, and that was refining the primordial purple energy.

"So what I lack is the Hongmeng Purple Qi? Where can I get this thing?" Du Yu sighed and felt a little unhappy.

However, no matter how unhappy he was, he had to continue refining it, as a way of accumulating foundation for himself.

......

After an unknown amount of time, Du Yu finally finished refining this "golden statue" and his whole body shook as he exited the state of cultivation.

When he opened his eyes and saw his exaggerated and eye-catching image, he felt like complaining.

"Forget it, just pretend that I'm wearing a set of 'illusion' armor." Du Yu said helplessly.

After getting up and moving around to feel the changes in himself, he actually felt much better about this new 'skin'.

Although he doesn't look a bit like a human, his strength has increased significantly.

He can now say with certainty that if he encounters the Tathagata Buddha from the modified version of Journey to the West, he will be able to defeat him and it won't be too difficult.

"Perhaps this is the price of becoming stronger. Well, at least I'm not bald yet." Du Yu said self-deprecatingly. Whether he was willing to admit it or not, his current status was above the Hunyuan Jinxian but below the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian, or it would be more accurate to say that he was a half-step saint.

Du Yu felt a little embarrassed when he thought about the Qidian novels he read in the main world and what he despised the most was the setting of "half-step XX".

Unexpectedly, he got stuck in this state several times, which was quite frustrating.

But he was a high-level monk after all, and he quickly adjusted his mindset and dispelled all distracting thoughts.

"Now I should have the strength to defeat Buddha Wu Tian. Maybe after refining Him, I will see an opportunity for a breakthrough." Du Yu murmured to himself.

After saying that, he stood up and left the training room.

He immediately looked at the perpetual calendar placed outside and found that only more than 20 years had passed. He was very grateful that he had used the power of the law of time before.

If the time flow rate in the training room had not been adjusted, who knows how long this retreat would last.

After coming out of isolation, Du Yu first spent some time with Yu Xiaobai enjoying a happy family life.

However, there is still a long time before Du Lu is born, so there is no need for him to stay with him all the time.

Another point is that Yu Xiaobai is living a relatively comfortable life now. He can just hide behind and issue tasks, secretly mobilizing the heroes of the Azeroth world and the Fourth Scourge to crush the conspiracies of other forces.

As for when she can counterattack and destroy the other six Titans of the Force, she does not have a specific plan yet. In short, Yu Xiaobai will not act rashly until she is absolutely sure.

A few months later, Du Yu said goodbye to Yu Xiaobai again, then opened the system panel to modify the time and space anchor point and teleport back to the Black Wind Mountain in the Journey to the West world.

Just like last time, he used a cleaning talisman to clean up the Taoist temple, which was not dirty. Then he took out three incense sticks from his storage ring, lit them and inserted them into the incense burner. Then he paid great tribute to the statue of Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun.

After his cultivation level was further improved, Du Yu was sure that there was a Taoist rhythm flowing in this golden statue.

He didn't even think about refining the Taoist rhyme in it. On the contrary, he was more certain that at least this statue and this Taoist temple had a close relationship with Master Luo.

After the worship, Du Yu returned to the courtyard of the Taoist temple. With a thought, he entered the universe within his body. The place he returned to was naturally the Demon King's Palace in the 'Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons'.

He first summoned Linglong, Mo'an, Tuanzi, Hu Meiniang and other trusted aides to check their training progress, and of course, he also paid attention to the construction of the legions under their command.

After giving them some new instructions, he sent these big monsters to continue practicing.

After watching the 'video' of Lord Tianwei's conquest of the four universes, he felt that the people under his command were at best minnows and not qualified.

After finishing his chores, he was teleported to the paradise where the six great saints were.

After having a feast with them, he took Sun Wukong to an independent space alone.

"Sun Dasheng, how do you feel about being a guest in the 'Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons' during this period of time?" Du Yu asked.

Sun Wukong had figured everything out long ago, and said, "Dao Jun, I am very happy here, as if I have returned to the days when I was free and at ease."

"In that case, are you willing to join my 'Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons'?" Du Yu asked.

"Of course I would." Sun Wukong said without hesitation.

"A man who knows the times is a hero. You are indeed a smart man." Du Yu said with a smile.

"Thank you, Taoist, for removing the Buddhist power from my body and allowing me to return to my true self." Sun Wukong said.

"It's good that you can understand this, but your feud with Buddhism is not over yet." Du Yu showed a meaningful smile.

Sun Wukong was stunned for a moment, then he thought of something and asked, "Does Daojun want to take action against Buddha Wutian?"

"Haha, you understand it immediately." Du Yu laughed.

"Please give me your instructions, Taoist." Sun Wukong said immediately.

"My plan is this..." Du Yu sent a stream of information into the other party's sea of ​​consciousness.

After hearing this, Sun Wukong nodded repeatedly and approved of this plan very much.

After going over the details again, Du Yu waved his hand to open up a space, took the little white dragon over and gave the same instructions.

Then he took Sun Wukong and Xiao Bailong out of the "Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons" and sent them back to Yingchoujian.
