Seeking Immortality

What on earth is Xu Sheng thinking? What to do?

This question is in everyone's heart at this moment.

Or, no one except Zhang Xusheng knows; or, even Zhang Xusheng himself is not so clear.

All kinds of questions are constantly accumulating in the hearts of the members of the "An" organization under Zhang Xusheng, but for them, Zhang Xusheng is their heaven, their god, and even their belief. Although Zhang Xusheng these days The serious look on his fighting spirit made them uncomfortable, but they still suppressed these questions deep in their hearts.

Do as Zhang Xusheng said, don't ask why, Zhang Xusheng must be right - this sentence has been deeply ingrained in their souls.

At this moment, all the members of the "An" organization were standing quietly outside Zhang Xusheng's room with their hands down, waiting for Zhang Xusheng's call.

Since the "Soul-Eating Insect" was reborn, Zhang Xusheng has stayed in his room most of the time. No one knows what he is doing, and ever since Xu Qingfan brought countless Xia Ling Seven Islands monks to After the Human Alliance, Zhang Xusheng stayed in his room longer and longer.

"Come in."

After standing still for a long time, Zhang Xusheng's words finally reached their ears, leisurely, like sighs.

Pushing open the door, Ming Luo and ~ Luo led a group of "An" organization members into the room. They were arranged in several rows and stood respectfully with their hands down.

"What I asked you to do. Have you finished it?"

Zhang Xusheng sat cross-legged on the bed. Slowly open your eyes. asked.

"All completed."

Ming Luo replied.

Zhang Xusheng nodded. The serious expression on his face softened slightly. Vaguely. It seems that you can see the familiar aloof and reserved smile that makes people unpredictable.

"Then, please stand down. It's the last battle. Who wins and who loses will be revealed in the next few days. You must prepare well. Don't neglect it."

"yes."

Ming Luo and others responded respectfully and were about to retreat.

However, when he retreated, Ming Luo showed a trace of hesitation. After a moment, he stood up again, bowed to Zhang Xusheng, and then asked: "Lead... Originally I shouldn't ask these questions, but if Don't ask, I don't know what to do... What you have been doing these days... are you really determined to help the Human Alliance? Although with your intelligence, in just one month, the entire human race has been defeated. The alliance is dominated by your will, but in fact, the power you have exerted in the Human Alliance over the years has been gradually swallowed up by Zizhen, Xu Qingfan and others. Nearly half of the new humans you have cultivated over the years have also been killed by vendetta. , up to now, only our original members of the 'Anni' organization are still taking orders from you. According to your plan, it is basically difficult for the Shura clan to win, and even the 'Spirit Devouring Insects' will be difficult to threaten in a short period of time. When it comes to us, aren't you afraid that after helping the Human Alliance regain its hegemony over the vast land of China, Zizhen and Xu Qingfan will do nothing but kill them?"

Zhang Xusheng looked at Ming Luo quietly for a moment, and the look in his eyes became more and more unpredictable.

"I'm not a donkey, and the mill is not so easy to remove. To me, everything in the world is just a chess piece. When a chess piece is useful, I naturally have to focus on training. Don't worry... Don't say that my opponent is just a purple. Zhen and Xu Qingfan, even if the opponent is Tian, ​​I can take you across the sea."

Although Zhang Xusheng did not reveal the slightest bit of his plan, the strange thing is that after hearing Zhang Xusheng's words, everyone couldn't help but calm down. It seemed that under Zhang Xusheng's leadership, victory was already within easy reach.

Only Ming Luo had an inexplicable and complicated look in his eyes.

Are everything in the world just chess pieces?

Ming Luo couldn't help but think of the scene when Zhang Xusheng abandoned the "An" organization without hesitation when the "An" organization and the "Ming" organization were fighting...

When everyone retreated, Luo was left behind by Zhang Xusheng.

"I have spent almost all my life studying life and soul. I have transformed countless creatures and allowed them to evolve according to my wishes. I even created new creatures... life, soul, time and space. , I have mastered these three magical powers that originally did not belong to living beings in this world..."

~ Luo's eyes flashed with confusion. He didn't know why Zhang Xusheng suddenly mentioned this, but he still listened quietly.

"However, especially the evolution and creation of living beings... this should be the right owned by Heaven. Not only do I act on behalf of Heaven, but I even go against Heaven to control the general trend of the world. This is a violation of Heaven's most fundamental right - destiny. This paragraph As time passed, I gradually felt that God could no longer tolerate me.”

As he spoke, a sarcastic smile flashed across Zhang Xusheng's lips, seeming to be mocking Tiandao's stinginess, but Luo's body was shaken. He naturally knew what would happen to a person when the sky was not forgiving.

In the mortal world, there is a saying called "Heavenly Tribulation", that is, if a person acts against heaven, heaven will send down huge power, either strong wind or lightning, and directly wipe that person from the world. However, cultivators know that the so-called " "Heavenly Tribulation" does not exist at all. If there is a "Heavenly Tribulation", "Heavenly Tribulation" is also invisible. It will turn into your fate and countless coincidences, pushing you step by step onto the road to destruction.

However, Zhang Xusheng remained calm at this moment, and just said with a faint smile: "You have also seen what happened these days. Basically, all coincidences are not conducive to us. What I have done these days is One of the purposes of what he did was just to hide the truth. "

"Owner……"

~Luo said worriedly, but was interrupted by Zhang Xusheng.

"I only say these words to you. I don't believe the others, especially Ming Luo. The reason why he is loyal to me is just because of my strength, but you were trained by me personally. Among people, you are the most loyal to me..."

"Master, if you have anything to do, let me do it. As long as I can help you defeat the way of heaven, I will have no regrets!!"

~ Luo's eyes flashed with excitement and he kept saying.

"Even if this incident will make you lose your soul and prevent you from reincarnation?"

"As long as I can help my master win,

I would rather lose my soul than enter reincarnation! ! "

Zhang Xusheng smiled. At this moment, Zhang Xusheng finally transformed back into the elegant, gentle, calm and heaven-defying existence that controlled everything before.

"Okay, now, there is one thing that only you can do!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Ming Luo and others were worried that Xu Qingfan, Zizhen and others would kill the donkey, Xu Qingfan and Mr. Liu were indeed discussing this matter.

Internal fighting is always one of the most profound instincts of human beings, even Xu Qingfan, because in the eyes of humans, no matter how serious external troubles are, they can never be compared to internal troubles. What's more, in these years of contact with Zhang Xusheng, They had indeed seen through Zhang Xusheng's terrifying and ruthless nature.

At this moment, Xu Qingfan, Mr. Liu, all the masters from Xialing Seven Islands and all Xu Qingfan's disciples gathered together in Xu Qingfan's underground room.

"Zhang Xusheng's plans and arrangements these days are flawless, but I still don't believe him."

After Xu Qingfan studied Zhang Xusheng's arrangements for the past few days for a whole night, although he did not find any conspiracy or flaws, the uneasiness in his heart did not diminish at all.

Mr. Liu nodded and said: "I believe it too, but if we don't have a more perfect plan, then we can only act according to his plan."

Xu Qingfan shook his head and said: "Zhang Xusheng's plan is perfect. We don't need and can't come up with other plans. However, we can't just focus on Zhang Xusheng's plan, or Zhang Xusheng uses this to divert Our focus, his real purpose, is elsewhere."

Mr. Liu nodded and said: "I have also thought of this. A month ago, I arranged for my people to monitor all Zhang Xusheng's men openly or covertly, but from the current point of view, these people in Zhang Xusheng The men have always acted according to the plan and have never made any other moves.”

After Xu Qingfan pondered for a moment, he suddenly turned around and said: "Zhenxian, Zhenling."

"The disciple is here!!"

Tian Zhenxian and Tian Zhenling came out and responded respectfully.

"You all send the 'Tianzuo Camp' to cooperate with the monks under Senior Liu to monitor every move of Zhang Xusheng's men without making any mistakes!!"

"yes!!"

Looking at Xu Qingfan's arrangements, Zhang Ningmei suddenly said after a moment's delay: "Master, in fact, in my opinion, Zhang Xusheng's plan has a big problem."

Xu Qingfan and Mr. Liu were both stunned and said, "What's the problem?"

"It's so perfect, there are no flaws at all, and this is the biggest flaw!!" Zhang Ningmei said in a deep voice, her expression and demeanor already have the demeanor of a generation of wisdom: "Zhang Xusheng's plan is of course linked to each other. His plan is of course impossible to deal with the 'Soul-eating Insects', but if he wants to defeat the Shura clan, the winning rate is extremely high. However, it is precisely because it is too perfect and has no flaws. In fact, it is full of fatal flaws. In other words, As long as there is a problem in one link of this plan, even if it is a trivial link, it can cause the entire plan to collapse..."

Hearing Zhang Ningmei's words, both Mr. Liu and Xu Qingfan were shocked. They looked at each other and could see the horror in each other's eyes.

Yes, the so-called perfection is actually the most imperfect.

Mr. Liu nodded slowly and said softly: "Yes, I actually ignored the most important point."

Xu Qingfan frowned and said: "In other words, the specific implementation of this plan must be ours, and people from Zhangxu Holy Land cannot even be involved in the slightest..."

As he said that, Xu Qingfan raised his head and said: "Senior Liu, tomorrow you and I will take all the rights of Zhang Xusheng's responsibility into our own hands. Although we will act according to his plan next, His people must not be involved."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After everyone left, Xu Qingfan stood by the window and looked at the starry sky for a long time. His face was calm and there was no wave in the ancient well, but deep in his eyes, there were turbulent waves.

After a long time, Xu Qingfan sighed, took out a chess book from the desk, and studied it carefully.

However, my heart couldn't calm down, but I couldn't look at it no matter what. Since the chess book was opened, even though I held it in my hand, I didn't turn a page.

"Senior Brother Xu, it's time for you to take medicine."

Suddenly, Dongfang Qingling's voice sounded beside her. When she turned around, she saw that Dongfang Qingling was standing in front of her holding a cup of tea, and Ting'er was standing beside her.

Since the two qi of life and death in the body have returned to balance, but the meridians and Dantian in the body have been damaged, Xu Qingfan needs to take a pill specially made by Beihai Scholar every ten days. Xu Qingfan often forgets, but Dongfang Qingling always reminds him.

Xu Qingfan nodded silently, took the tea from Dongfang Qingling, took out the elixir from his sleeve, drank it in one gulp, and then continued to pick up the chess record and read it.

However, after a moment, Xu Qingfan was suddenly startled, and found that the chess book in his hand was actually upside down. He smiled awkwardly and quickly turned it over.

Seeing Xu Qingfan's appearance, Dongfang Qingling couldn't help but smile and asked: "Senior Brother Xu, are you still thinking about Zhang Xusheng?"

"Yes and no."

"Then what are you thinking about?"

Xu Qingfan said softly: "I was thinking that the Shura clan and the soul-eating insects are both the great enemies of mankind. A decisive battle will happen at any time. But at this time, I don't care about anything and am only scheming with Zhang Xusheng to seize power. In addition, coupled with all my previous actions, slandering conspiracies and seizing power from others to strengthen myself... Before, I always sighed at those people in the mortal world who were still scheming and fighting for power despite the fact that foreign enemies had already invaded the city. If my behavior is known to future generations, will they regard me as a short-sighted and powerful villain? "

While sighing, Xu Qingfan's eyes showed a hint of fatigue.

A trace of sadness flashed in Dongfang Qingling's eyes. She sat next to Xu Qingfan, shoulder to shoulder, and said softly: "At least everyone around you knows what you have done.

It's all for humanity. "

Xu Qingfan laughed at himself and said: "Everything is for mankind... I am not that great. From the beginning to the end, I was just protecting myself. Even now, it is still the case."

Suddenly, Xu Qingfan's body stiffened.

While he was speaking, Dongfang Qingling suddenly rested her head on his shoulder and hugged one of his arms with both hands, as if to transfer warmth to his heart and slightly relieve the fatigue in his heart.

After a while, Xu Qingfan's body relaxed and he had no other thoughts on his mind. He just felt that his mood had improved a lot.

When he looked up, he saw Ting'er lowering her head and leaving the room.

The postures of Xu Qingfan and Dongfang Qingling remained like this all night.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When the sky was bright again, the bells on the top of Ronghua Mountain kept ringing, which was a signal to summon the great masters and heads of various sects to discuss matters.

When Xu Qingfan came to Qingxu Hall with Qiu, the previous fatigue and contradictions were no longer there. He was as calm and calm as ever, but he saw that all the masters and masters were already seated.

Such gatherings are held basically every day. The war is about to begin. Things are complicated and all aspects must be discussed again and again.

After Xu Qingfan and Qiu Ye sat down, as always, the meeting became the talk of Zhang Xu Holy Land.

Zhang Xusheng was seen standing in the center of Qingxu Hall, saying to everyone: "Over the past few days, we have collected enough spiritual elixirs and spiritual stones, and distributed them to all the monks of the Human Alliance according to their cultivation level and their role on the battlefield. In order to prepare for the war, we need to be grateful to Fellow Daoist Xu Qingfan. Half of these elixirs and spiritual stones were provided by Fellow Daoist Xu, otherwise we would not be able to prepare so many. "

As he spoke, Zhang Xusheng nodded to Xu Qingfan, and Xu Qingfan also smiled and nodded to Zhang Xusheng.

Zhang Xusheng continued: "In order to reduce the concerns of the Shura clan, we have hidden all the mechanism formations in Yongzhou, but they can be moved at any time. These Shura clan will also launch a general attack early without any scruples. After all, our advantage lies in defense, and we don’t have much time.”

"In addition, in the past ten days, Shura masters have come to Yongzhou many times to spy. Under my command, the entire human alliance also pretended not to know that a decisive battle was coming. The focus of defense was in the south, pretending to be defensive. The 'Spirit-Eating Insects' are ready to dispatch at any time to destroy the 'Spirit-Eating Insects'."

"In the past few days, we have suffered heavy casualties among the monks who have been spying on the Shura clan. However, according to the limited information, it is obvious that the Shura clan is also actively preparing for a decisive battle with us, because the 'Shura statue' has returned to the Shura clan. All the humans who were taken away were transformed into half-Asuras. Although the strength of these half-Asuras is far inferior to that of the pure Shura people, their numbers are far greater. The most important thing is that the Shura people seem to have abandoned their usual way of relying on strength to go on a rampage. Fighting methods, those half-Shuras have been practicing formations for these years. Judging from the little information, the formation they practiced is the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation"! Obviously, some of the human monks who were snatched away were I told the Shura clan how to set up the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation'."

After hearing Zhang Xusheng's words, the masters and masters became commotion.

The reason why humans can compete with the Shura clan until now is because of the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation". If the Shura tribe also learned the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation", how would humans resist?

Seeing that all the master masters seemed to be uneasy, Zhang Xusheng said: "But fellow Taoists, don't worry. Although the humans that the Shura tribe took away back then were large in number, most of them were mortals. Although there were monks, But they are all low-level monks. They only have a superficial understanding of the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation'. The real essence of the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation' is still in our hands. Moreover, their 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation' is hurriedly practiced, unlike ours. After training day and night for more than a hundred years, there must be many flaws, and based on these flaws, we may win more easily. "

After hearing these words from Zhang Xu Holy Land, all the head masters breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, the strength of the Shura tribe this time will definitely be no less than that of the last war. We must be more careful!! According to my judgment, the Shura tribe will complete preparations within a month, and the plan I designed before to 'hide the sky and cross the sea', It will also be implemented in half a month.”

Thinking of the almost perfect plan devised by Zhang Xusheng to "conceal the truth", all the masters and masters were refreshed and their confidence increased.

"Besides, there is news about the 'Soul-Eating Insect'."

Hearing Zhang Xusheng's words, all the masters and masters couldn't help but condensed their expressions. After all, up to now, they still have no solution to the 'soul-eating worm'.

"I'm afraid you can also feel that the aura of the 'soul-eating worms' in the world is getting stronger and stronger. According to the reports of the monks who went to investigate, the 'soul-eating worms' have been coming to us since they escaped from the trap. After all, we are here There are the most auras or creatures with auras. For more than a month, the 'Spirit Devouring Insect' has been devouring the auras of heaven and earth and the spiritual beings of heaven and earth. Wherever it passes, it is a desolate place with no living creatures left. And it has stayed on the earth. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth has also become significantly thinner. At this moment, the body of this 'Spirit Devouring Insect' is more than ten times larger than the last time we met."

"Although its body is huge, its only drawback is that it moves slowly, but that is only relatively speaking. As its strength increases, its speed becomes faster and faster. It can move several miles in one step. It has already left Youzhou and Liangzhou. After entering the land of Hanzhou, with its speed and speed growth, I am afraid it will only take more than three months to come to us. At that time, its speed is no less than that of the Golden Core monks, that is to say, We must resolve the battle with the Shura clan within three months, otherwise all the monks below the Golden Core Stage will be swallowed up by the 'Spirit-Eating Insects'. The Yingqi Grandmaster... in the end, none of you here will be able to escape its pursuit and devouring."

Following Zhang Xusheng's words, the expressions of all the monks in Qingxu Hall became more and more serious.

"So,

, what do you think we should do in the coming days? "

Xu Qingfan finally broke the one-word hall of Zhang Xu Holy Land and asked.

Zhang Xusheng nodded and said: "Two points. First, continue to confuse the Shura clan and pretend to attack the 'Spirit Devouring Insect', causing them to make mistakes in their judgment. Second, it's us masters. For more than a hundred years, the middle and low-level monks have been practicing various formations day and night. Now we must also train, because the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation' composed of middle- and low-level monks can certainly trap ordinary people. The Shura clan, and even most of the Shura clan masters, but only Da Lantian and Asura, not even the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Formation' can do anything to them, and we must find a way to stop these two people. "

Hearing Zhang Xusheng's words, all the masters nodded. How terrifying the strength of Da Lantian and Asura was back then, these masters still shudder when they think about it now.

"Among them, the most important thing is you, Daoist Fellow Xu."

Zhang Xusheng suddenly looked at Xu Qingfan and said this.

"I?"

Xu Qingfan looked at Zhang Xusheng in confusion.

Zhang Xusheng nodded and said: "If I guessed correctly, Brother Xu, you must have refined a top-level magic weapon that controls space and time in the shape of a chess piece over the years, right?"

Xu Qingfan's face was calm, but his heart was suddenly shocked, because few people even knew about his refining of "Heaven and Earth Chess" even in the Seven Islands of Xia Ling. How did Zhang Xusheng know about it?

Could it be...

Zhang Xusheng seemed to see through what Xu Qingfan was thinking, shook his head and said, "Don't get me wrong, fellow Taoist Xu, I didn't place a spy around you. It's just that when you blew yourself up in the 'Xuanjing Treasure House', the magic weapon in your sleeve fell. I once saw a piece of "Heaven and Earth Mysterious Stone" that contains the powerful power of time and space, and more than a hundred chess pieces of "immortal jade" that are born with the power of prohibition. But with the cultivation level of you and me, simply Hard training is no longer useful. You need to use other aspects to realize progress. By analogy, Taoist friend, the "Life and Death Art" and "Dai Tian Jue" you have learned, if combined with other laws, must be the way of chess, so I can infer from this, Taoist. He should have refined such a magic weapon."

A hint of warning flashed in Xu Qingfan's eyes. Zhang Xusheng's observation and reasoning abilities were so powerful that they even scared Xu Qingfan.

Despite this, Xu Qingfan still nodded, his expression as calm and calm as ever, and just asked: "So what?"

Zhang Xusheng explained: "When we are fighting Dalantian and Asura, this magic weapon of Xu Daoyou will definitely be of great use. It can be used to bless others such as me, and to protect Dalantian and Asura." Weakening, especially that Da Lantian, to be honest, the only thing that makes him great is that he uses his speed and power to the limit. If fellow Taoist can use this magic weapon of yours to slightly limit his speed, and let us If the speed is increased, our winning rate will definitely increase. It can be said that in the upcoming battle, you, Daoyou Xu, will control the rhythm and even direct, so it is naturally the top priority. "

Hearing Zhang Xusheng's words, everyone's eyes lit up, and Xu Qingfan thought about it for a moment, then nodded and said: "Since fellow Taoist said so, I naturally have no shirking responsibility."

Zhang Xusheng nodded, looked around the crowd, and asked, "That's all I have to say, do you fellow Taoists have anything to add?"

All the masters shook their heads. Everything they wanted to say was mentioned by Zhang Xusheng, so they were naturally speechless.

"In that case, let's go to training now without delay to get familiar with the new tactics and cooperation with each other."

Just as the masters were about to leave with Zhang Xusheng, Xu Qingfan and Mr. Liu looked at each other and said in unison: "Wait a minute."

"Do you two Daoists have anything else to do?"

Zhang Xusheng asked.

Mr. Liu nodded and said with a smile: "Indeed, in recent days, all the arrangements of the Human Alliance have been carried out by your men, Daoist Zhang, who are exhausted and not good for the upcoming war. However, the cultivators of the Seven Islands of Xialing under Daoist Xu have been resting. In my opinion, in the next few days, all arrangements will be implemented by the cultivators of the Seven Islands of Xialing, while Daoist Zhang's men will take a rest and prepare for the upcoming war. What do you think, Daoist Zhang?"

After hearing these words from Mr. Liu, everyone was slightly shocked and looked at Zhang Xusheng.

In these days, Zhang Xusheng, relying on his high intelligence, has unknowingly become the leader and controller of the entire Human Alliance. All the affairs of the Human Alliance are also arranged and implemented by Zhang Xusheng's people. In a sense, Zhang Xusheng controls the operation of the Human Alliance. Although Mr. Liu's words are light, they are actually seizing power.

However, everyone agrees with Mr. Liu's arrangements, because in their opinion, handing over the Human Alliance to Zhang Xusheng is too dangerous and disturbing.

However, Zhang Xusheng has finally achieved this step. Will he agree?

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Xusheng actually nodded.

"In fact, if Fellow Daoist Liu doesn't say it, I will also arrange it this way. These days, my people are indeed a little tired. From now on, all the affairs of the Human Alliance will be handed over to Fellow Daoist Xu."

Xu Qingfan nodded and said, "I will definitely not let you down."

So, the control of humanity was handed over to Xu Qingfan in just a few words, and everyone found it incredible.

But no one noticed that a gloomy look suddenly flashed in the eyes of Zizhen Immortal.

Once upon a time, he was the master of the Human Alliance, but now, he couldn't even say a word about the transfer of power in the Human Alliance.

After Xu Qingfan and Zhang Xusheng completed the handover of power, according to Zhang Xusheng's arrangement, a group of masters left Qingxu Hall and flew outside Yongzhou to train for the upcoming war.

But just when everyone left Qingxu Hall, something no one expected happened.
