one's door

Things went better than expected.At the same time, another question was pushed to Zhang Yan, who needed to come up with a strategy as soon as possible: how to continue to cultivate ghost cultivators after the ghost domain was cleared, and how to make good use of the special place of the ghost domain.

The essence of ghost cultivation is to absorb Yin evil spirits and Yin Qi to practice.However, the merit feedback obtained from saving ghosts will inevitably drop sharply after the ghost domain is cleared. This is one of the reasons why Zhang Yan has always warned Jiang Ziwen to control the number of ghost cultivators.

What should the ghost domain do in the future?There must be an effective organization to allocate resources inside and outside the ghost domain.At the same time, the relationship between Huangquan and Yangjian should be changed.It should be complementary rather than hostile to each other as in the past.This was also Zhang Yan's original intention to integrate all the forces in the Huangtian Territory.

And to resolve hostility, the best way is to let the other party have a "need" for you.

Thinking of this, the corners of Zhang Yan's mouth turned up slightly, thinking: Is this a coincidence?

Chapter 595 Underworld

As I said before, if you are born in a hurry, how can you be happy in everything?Frustration is the main theme of life, and success is a small probability event. Otherwise, how can success be remembered forever?

Regret, reluctance, unwillingness, how many of them have turned into negative jealousy, greed, and resentment?

A mix of dark and bright.The continuation of life was left behind, and all kinds of strange crimes were also buried.

Yangjian made laws to curb and punish evil.But no matter how perfect the law itself is, the people who enforce it are still living beings, so there will inevitably be room for maneuver.This effect naturally depends on luck and cannot be guaranteed.

Just a few words of complaint in my heart.If it is really the golden belt of the wicked and the roadside bones of the good, it will inevitably be chilling, and it is hard to say in the world.

Isn't there a place where all sins of all beings can be judged fairly and justly?

There was no such place in the first place.But in the legendary age of the earth, there really was such a place called: Hell.

The word "fu" can actually explain many things.

First, the underworld is a place where power is concentrated.Detection, judgment, execution, the trinity.

Secondly, local power is centralized but also has a clear division of labor, and subordinates operate efficiently.

In the end, the underworld is underground, so the ones being judged are naturally not the creatures of the underworld.It is not the law of the world, it is self-contained and free from interference.

It is hard to say who is in charge of the underworld.At least in the legends known to Zhang Yan, there are two sayings of "returning to Tianting" and "returning to Dizang" in the underworld.It is also said that the underworld is self-contained and no one can control it, and the highest ruler is the ten palace princes.

From Zhang Yan's point of view, there may be two opinions.

One may be that the legend is untrue and some fallacies have appeared.Second, it may be that the affiliation behind the underworld is very complicated, and it is intertwined that there are different opinions.

But no matter which one is, the existence of the underworld in the legendary age of the earth is an important part that cannot be ignored.It is even the only man-made component in Daoist scriptures that really participates in the rotation of the origin of heaven and earth.Its importance is self-evident.

There is no underworld in Huangtianyu, but what Zhang Yan wants to do is to build one here.

This is the fastest way to resolve the hostile state between Yangjian and Huangquan, that is, to make Yangjian have an involuntary and irreplaceable "demand" for Huangquan.

Because apart from the power of setting and positioning like the underworld, there is no place in Yangjian that is completely fair and just and does not omit to judge all living beings and give rewards and punishments.

What can the sun room get?The power to persuade people to do good, the iron fence to restrict evil, and finally the means to punish evil and promote good.

Psychological comfort is often more desirable than real things, because it is impossible for you to get it in life.

Once the underworld is established in Huangtianyu, the relationship between the ghost domain and the world will naturally take a big turn.When the Huangtian Territory has evolved completely and Da Hongtian really comes over, it will be enough to achieve unity after all.

However, although the idea is very good, it is rare that it is not ordinary big if it is to be implemented.

As for the underworld in the legendary era of the earth in the book, there are different opinions on its establishment, and no one can tell for sure just like its affiliation.But several core parts of it are things that Zhang Yan can't get around if he wants to set up a dungeon in Huangtianyu.

For example, Nie Jingtai and Book of Life and Death.

The mirror of evil has passed before, and the evil will finally be revealed.It is talking about the evil deeds committed in the life before the Nie Jingtai after death, one after another, no matter how big or small, they will not be missed.

The book of life and death is more like a ball of thread, one end is pinched in the hands of the Lord of the Underworld, and the other end is holding all living beings.Life, or death, is only a stroke.

Another example is the story of sacrificing one's life for six roulettes.Later, the six realms were transformed into the earth, and since then the six realms have been clearly defined and will no longer interfere with each other, and all living beings can reincarnate in an orderly manner.And rewards and punishments can be cashed in this way.If you do good, you will enjoy the glory in the next life.If you do evil, you will fall into the realm of hungry ghosts, the realm of animals for ten or a hundred lives, or even never be reborn.

Of course, there are many other things that are full of details but seem to be full of deep meaning, so I won't list them one by one.Because if Zhang Yan wanted to build a dungeon in Huang Tianyu, he would have to find a way to solve these three things from the very beginning, otherwise building a dungeon would be a joke.

Regardless of the Nie Jingtai or the Book of Life and Death, the most important root is not any magic technique, but comes from heaven and earth.Because these are aimed at sentient beings, they are originally the evolution and operation category of heaven and earth.It is equivalent to extracting this evolution and operation from the hands of heaven and earth.

Can heaven and earth be willing?Unless someone becomes a part of heaven and earth in a "harmony" way, and then intervenes in the operation of heaven and earth in turn, and agrees to bring this part of things into the so-called evil mirror and book of life and death.

In other words, magic weapons are just appearances, and the key is whether the world will let go or not.

Zhang Yan is still looking for a breakthrough in the middle stage of the Immortal Realm, so it is naturally impossible to look far away at the level of power beyond the Golden Immortal, such as "He Dao".

But Zhang Yan has his way.He had already communicated with Huang Tianyu once without joining the Dao.And understand that the world is not really a mechanical one, it is also a choice that will seek benefits and avoid disasters.

In other words, if there are beneficial things, Huang Tianyu will be easy to talk about.What's more, Zhang Yan was called an "odd number" by Huang Tianyu.

So even if there is no Nie Jingtai and the book of life and death, Zhang Yan can directly obtain some power through "negotiation" with Huang Tianyu.There is a lot of room for negotiation.

The second is the six realms of reincarnation.Zhang Yan doesn't have the ability to agree with the Dao, and he doesn't even have the ability or courage to transform into a cycle of six realms so selflessly.At the same time, the reincarnation of the six paths cannot be realized in the barren sky.What he needs is a controllable channel that can lead the repetition of life cycle.

The so-called six ways.Except for the Human Realm and the Animal Realm, the other four realms are too advanced for Huang Tianyu.Let alone a world like Huang Tianyu that has not yet evolved completely, even if it has evolved completely, it may not be able to evolve the other four ways.Especially Shura Dao and Tian Shen Dao among them.According to Zhang Yan's judgment, even the bluffing Da Hongtian didn't have that ability.

It is conceivable to know how far the world has evolved in the legendary age of the earth in the book?

It is required not to use the Six Ways, so it can be simplified and simplified, and finally it can even be dealt with together with the previous issues of the book of life and death and the platform of evil.

What Zhang Yan has to do now is to wait for Jiang Ziwen to completely wipe out Huangquan, and then he will propose a new deal to Huangtianyu.

It's just that this time there won't be a "show-and-go" exchange like before with the three-eyed family.Instead, the "return" is prepaid in advance with the vision of the future in the way of drawing cakes.

Chapter 596 Burning Books

Jiang Ziwen's movements were compact and fast. After eliminating the biggest threat, the sweeping speed became faster and faster.When the fifth year was still less than half a year away, the suppression of Huangquan had already been completed.Then he combed the ghost domain for the second time, and found out all the fish that slipped through the net.

In the end, Jiang Ziwen kept the number of ghost cultivators under his command at around 1.

In fact, Jiang Ziwen was thinking about the future before completing the sweep and suppression of Huangquan.The huge ghost domain is naturally suitable for ghosts to live and practice.There is even no need to compete with other creatures here.

Perhaps it was the influence of being content with the status quo and dullness when he was a ghost in the early years, or maybe it was because he had a keen enough view of the various forces in the Huangtian Territory today.Jiang Ziwen is very conservative in his thoughts about Huangquan in the future. He even wants to build Huangquan as a branch sect of the dead attached to the cliff mountain.Follow the lead of the cliff mountain, and at the same time take into account the responsibility of helping Yangjian clean up ghosts.

This idea has put the foundation in the hands of the cliff mountain from the very beginning.But Jiang Ziwen didn't think there was anything wrong.He even worried that this "confession" was not enough.I was worried that the teacher would look down on these ghost cultivators like Huang Quan.What if you are ready to transcend the invisible to the pure together?Can't tell.

So when Huangquan was completely wiped out, Jiang Ziwen was very disturbed.

So that when Jiang Ziwen suddenly saw Zhang Yan in his residence, his first reaction was to kneel on the ground in fright, only knowing how to kowtow but not knowing what to say for a while.The sense of fear that seemed to exist but was squeezed out from the bottom of his heart made it difficult for him to control himself.

The difference in the level of life is too great. Zhang Yan has followed the path of the Chunyang Immortal, and the body of the fairy is still hammered out by thunder. Let alone a ghost cultivator like Jiang Ziwen, even a ghost fairy will inevitably feel uncomfortable in front of him.

"Human Domain has been wiped out?" Zhang Yan looked at Jiang Ziwen who was trembling in front of him expressionlessly, and had already evaluated the other party's actions over the years in his heart.Overall, he was quite satisfied, otherwise he wouldn't have made the trip himself.

"Yes, teacher. It has been cleaned up inside and out. Now ghost cultivators have been dispatched to guard all the dead paths in the ghost domain and Yangjian, and ghost hunting in Yangjian has resumed..."

After panic and embarrassment, Jiang Ziwen quickly poured out the rhetoric he had prepared in his heart.Not only the current status of Huangquan, but also some of his thoughts on Huangquan's future.Originally, there were some things that he wanted to ponder over before he said them, but now when he got nervous, his mouth was stopped and he said everything.

Regarding Jiang Ziwen's address to him, Zhang Yan did not correct him.Because there is nothing wrong with calling him a teacher.The lineage of ghost cultivators was originally passed down by him.Although it is only an introduction rather than a foothold, it is still affordable.

"Don't be nervous, your idea is very good. The geography of the ghost domain is unique. It was originally a place for ghosts to be arranged by heaven and earth. In the past, ghosts were rampant and wreaked havoc. They were a disaster for creatures. Stealing the origin of heaven and earth should be used to rectify the universe. But there are often resentments in the world. , there are endless ghosts. Now that the tens of thousands of ghost cultivators in the ghost domain have received gifts from heaven and earth, they should also shoulder the responsibilities in the future instead of expanding wantonly. You can see this very clearly.

However, the role of ghost domain is not limited to these.You now arrange the rest of the ghost cultivators.Let them leave the middle area of ​​the ghost domain, I want a place with a radius of a hundred miles. "

Zhang Yan has no way to explain it to Jiang Ziwen for the time being, and it is not even known whether his idea will be realized in the end.He can only try first, and if it doesn't work, he can think of another way.

However, Zhang Yan felt that he was more than [-]% sure.After all, the establishment of the underworld is definitely beneficial to Huang Tianyu.It's up to you whether you want to make the exchange.

"It's the teacher, the disciple will make arrangements now to ensure that nothing will disturb the teacher within a radius of five hundred miles from the central area of ​​the ghost domain."

Although I don't understand why Zhang Yan suddenly came to Huangquan and cleared out an area hundreds of miles away.But Jiang Ziwen didn't dare to ask, he just put this matter into practice as soon as possible.

Zhang Yan didn't wait for Jiang Ziwen to finish cleaning up before he acted. He was already in the center of the ghost domain, and it was also in the tower of a great ghost king.

With a flash of his figure, he came out of the tower and stood on the top of the tower with his hands behind his back, looking up at the dark sky of Huangquan above his head.

Although, like the God Realm, it is a gap in the space of the Desolate Sky Territory, it is a relatively independent small space, and it also has its own characteristics.But Ghost Realm is obviously more pure than God Realm.After all, the God Realm is Huang Tianyu's mouth when it bites other worlds, and the Ghost Domain is more like a poison sac that gathers most of the evil spirits and yin energy.

Zhang Yan took out a long paper scroll from the storage bag, and wrote ten thousand words on it, all of which were his thoughts on setting up the underworld in the ghost domain.At this time, the hand trembled, and the long scroll began to burn, turning into green smoke and slowly floating upwards, leaving no trace after a dozen or so breaths.Even the ashes that were supposed to fall went up along with the green smoke, and soon disappeared under the dark sky.

This is the method that Zhang Yan finally found out from the corner of his memory and can be used to express his thoughts to Chaohuang Tianyu.And he tried it when he was on the cliff.Those burned words will be taken away by the original power that can only be directly invoked by heaven and earth.This means that although Huang Tianyu hasn't come out since the three-eyed family, it doesn't mean that he doesn't pay attention to Zhang Yan any more, but just ignores him.

Now that the text can be read by Huang Tianyu, Zhang Yan believes that with Huang Tianyu's purpose of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, he will never be unresponsive this time.

After waiting for a long time, Zhang Yan finally had the feeling of being stared directly at by Huang Tianyu during the three-eyed family catastrophe after many years.

"How?" Zhang Yan looked at the pair of eyes that suddenly appeared obliquely in front of his head and asked with a smile.

There was scrutiny in those eyes.It looks cold, but it doesn't look lifeless. It's like an extremely cruel villain looking at you with a look of indifference to the world's creatures.

"Your ideas are very peculiar. If these ideas can be fulfilled, it will indeed be a good thing for me once and for all. But the price is not small, and it is not equivalent to what I get."

As always, there is no half-sentence.Zhang Yan liked this way of communication very much.Talking to him, it means that Huang Tianyu is interested in the idea of ​​setting up a hell.The reason for the disagreement is that the "price" is not equal in Huangtianyu's view.

That means there is still something to talk about.

Zhang Yan: "What I want is the underworld, a stable place where ghost cultivators can be cultivated. Ten thousand ghost cultivators are enough. What I want is to resist the invasion of creatures from other worlds in the future. It's for self-protection. The price you pay is just to let go It's just the evolutionary context of creatures that you don't care about at all.

This price is not too much, right? "

Zhang Yan originally thought that Huang Tianyu was bargaining, but he didn't expect the other party to say;

"The evolution of letting go of creatures is not as simple as you think."

Chapter 597 Binding

"Ok?"

Zhang Yan was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what Huang Tianyu meant.

According to Zhang Yan's thinking, the evolution of living beings is dispensable in Huang Tianyu's hands, they are all unintentional embellishments, and they are never ignored at ordinary times, even if they are opened, it will not matter.Compared with completely solving the ghost problem that has plagued Huangtianyu for so long, it is definitely an advantage.It was also this kind of thinking that made Zhang Yan feel that Huang Tianyu would definitely show up and gladly accept this exchange.

Hearing Huang Tianyu's meaning, it seems that there is still a doorway that he doesn't know about. It is not so easy to open up about the evolution of living beings?

The voice that belonged to the desolate world continued to say: "The evolution of living beings is the epitome of my original evolution. It seems to be an appearance, but it is actually an indispensable part for me.

Hmm... You can understand it as the hair on your body. It seems that you can cut it off at will or don't care about it, but it can't be completely stripped from your body.

So you should understand, right? "

It is still impossible to fully understand the truth, but it does not prevent Zhang Yan from understanding the evolution of creatures. To Huang Tianyu, it is not as "indifferent" as he thinks.

Frowning and thinking for a while, Zhang Yan tentatively asked: "Then it's okay if they can cooperate with each other, for example, according to the message sent to you after the establishment of the underworld, you can arrange the reincarnation of life..."

Before Zhang Yan finished speaking this time, Huang Tianyu interrupted: "Impossible. Direct communication with you is already the limit, and this kind of distraction is also very strenuous for me. Besides, there are thousands of creatures. , how to arrange after one by one? It is not advisable."

Zhang Yan didn't say anything anymore.He found that his previous considerations were indeed based on his own assumptions, which were quite different from the actual situation, and he suffered from insufficient cognition.Now, as Huang Tianyu said, if you don't let go of the evolution of creatures and use the method of writing one by one and then going down, it won't work at all.Just the number of tedious births and deaths of thousands of creatures cannot be described by mere "signatures".

Have to think of another way.But what other way to solve it?

Zhang Yan's thoughts had no way to go, frowning, he couldn't do anything for a while.

However, Huang Tianyu didn't carelessly follow Zhang Yan here.And since he showed up, it means he came with a will.He just wasn't interested in Zhang Yan's plan.At the same time, he has his own ideas.

"Actually, you can participate in the details of the evolution of the living beings. In this way, I don't need to open up or strip those veins, and there will be no loss. And it is more convenient for you to control the details of the evolution of the living beings yourself. A thought is enough. The way you conceive it is just different, the result is the same."

When Huang Tianyu came up with this "compromise" method, Zhang Yan was stunned by what he said.

This sounds like a reasonable suggestion, but if you think about the meaning of these words a little more, you will understand how outrageous it is.

Participate in the context of the evolution of creatures in the wild world? !This means that there is a direct connection with Huang Tianyu, and it can even become a one-sided "fusion"? !

Thinking of the word "fusion", Zhang Yan immediately thought of a very high and mysterious realm of cultivation mentioned in the Taoist scriptures: the Dao of Harmony.

Of course, the Hedao Realm is an attempt after surpassing the Golden Fairyland.And according to the Taoist scriptures, it is a relatively unsuccessful attempt.Because the purpose of Hedao is to find new paths that can evolve and break through.Rather than simply gaining some new power.But the fact is that no new path has been found.

Zhang Yan definitely doesn't know the specific mysteries of He Dao.But one of the external manifestations of Hedao is that "it can participate in the evolution process of heaven and earth to a certain extent".

Isn't this the "compromise" method proposed by Huang Tianyu now?

"Can I participate in the evolution of creatures in the world?!" Zhang Yan was still not sure.Because the cognitive impact on him was too great.His first reaction was to confirm again, to see if Huang Tianyu made a mistake.

"Yes. Almost all of your consciousness belongs to my principles, and you are one of my evolved creatures. It is enough to draw out the evolution of creatures and connect them with your consciousness. It's just that Because your soul is not enough to bear all the veins of the many creatures I have evolved, so you can only clearly see the details one by one when you read it specifically. But it is very simple to let go of the details and only focus on your so-called reincarnation. It's just an idea of ​​yours."

After hearing this, Zhang Yan felt inexplicably bound to Huang Tianyu step by step from the very beginning when he received Huang Tianyu's indoctrination of "truth", and the binding became tighter and tighter.Now after finally becoming an immortal, he has the opportunity and opportunity to realize the Tao, and is ready to try to walk his own path, but suddenly it seems that he needs to choose again.

If you agree, then you must continue to be tied to Huang Tianyu.If you don't agree, you will probably lose [-]% to [-]% of the role that Ghost Cultivator should have played.

To be honest, neither of the two results was what Zhang Yan wanted to see.But he has no way to have the best of both worlds.

"How will this affect me?"

"I don't know about this. It should be good for your practice. You can experience it yourself when the time comes."

Zhang Yan finally nodded.He knew that Huang Tianyu would not give him much time to think about it slowly.To do so, be simple.At the same time, I had to move back the "self-enlightenment" that I had prepared in my heart.With Da Hongtian's oppressive force now, he has no way to slowly make his own attempts, so he can only talk about it later.

"That's good. Let's start now. It won't take long. You just extend your consciousness towards me, and you don't need to worry about other things." Huang Tianyu's habit is like this, and he will start immediately after the agreement is made. .

Zhang Yan looked around, and the ghost cultivators within a radius of more than ten miles had already begun to evacuate in an orderly manner.Jiang Ziwen cleared the field very quickly.So he nodded towards the pair of Huang Tianyu's eyes that only he could see in mid-air.

Zhang Yan let go of his consciousness and let his consciousness extend towards the pair of eyes transformed into Huang Tianyu.After a while, Zhang Yan obviously felt something grabbing his consciousness, and then began to feed back with a slight tingling pain.

Does consciousness feel pain? !This is the first time Zhang Yan knows.
