Chapter 3919 Trying to Catch the Moon in the Water

"..."

Upon seeing this, the demon king's pupils suddenly contracted, but before he could make a move, he saw Shen Changqing tighten his grip on his five fingers, instantly turning the demon king's hand bones into dust.

then.

With a flick of his sleeve, Shen Changqing summoned the Twelve Heavens. The power of the chaotic universe crashed down like a world-destroying millstone. The Demon King looked terrified and tried to escape but had no way to do so.

finally--

The opponent's body shattered inch by inch, and he perished on the spot in an instant.

Sold out instantly!

A steal!

Everything happened too fast.

It wasn't until everything calmed down that the cultivators on Zhang'e Peak suddenly realized what was happening.

"The sect leader has arrived!"

"We're saved!"

All the cultivators wore expressions of relief at surviving a calamity, their eyes filled with awe as they looked at the phantom in the void.

Instantly killed the Half-Saint King!

Such strength is bound to inspire awe.

"Master!"

Ye Yun also breathed a sigh of relief, a look of relief appearing on his face.

He was prepared to die in battle, but he never expected that his master would arrive so timely.

The Demon King, who had made him feel utterly hopeless, was easily killed on the spot.

This moment.

Venerable Xuanxu remained silent; he was now completely numb.

His knowledge and experience accumulated over countless years gradually crumbled after he met Shen Changqing.

The opponent's monstrous talent and the speed at which his strength grew far exceeded Venerable Xuanxu's imagination.

A strong person at this level.

For him, breaking through to the demigod level was a piece of cake.

In the eyes of Venerable Xuanxu, the real limitation for Shen Changqing, who has not yet broken through to the Half-Saint level, is not his aptitude or talent, but simply time.

The great calamity has not yet arrived.

Immortality is not apparent.

No matter how exceptionally talented or gifted you are, you will never be able to break through to the next realm.

When the great calamity arrives, such beings will surely be able to achieve immortality on the spot.

at this point.

Venerable Xuanxu had no doubts.

At the same time, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It would be best if Shen Changqing could come.

After all, nobody wants to die.

Don't be fooled by how frankly Venerable Xuanxu speaks; it's a last resort.

If you could live, who would want to die?

Just then.

After killing the evil king, Shen Changqing used his divine sense to recall the avatar.

He would bestow a protective force upon every disciple he personally taught, precisely to prevent such a situation from occurring.

This incarnation is formed from a drop of Shen Changqing's blood. Although its strength is not enough to suppress a half-saint, it is still not a problem to contend with an ordinary first-tribulation half-saint.

but.

Competing is one thing.

Their subsequent defeat was inevitable.

Shen Changqing withdrew his avatar and then looked at the other battlefields.

At this moment, the Demon King has fallen, but the Demon Beasts show no signs of defeat.

This is the horror of evil spirits.

With the Demon King leading the way, the Demon Beasts will obey his commands. However, if the Demon King falls, the Demon Beasts will still kill on instinct, and there is no such thing as defeat.

When a calamity occurs, it is a fight to the death.

now.

On the battlefield.

Despite the fall of the King of Chong, the situation for the cultivators on Zhang'e Peak remains dire.

after all--

There are too many evil beasts.

Densely packed.

It stretches as far as the eye can see.

Throughout the entire Transformation Heaven Realm, there are countless malevolent beasts, enough to fill the entire vast world. In comparison, the number of cultivators on Zhang'e Peak is far too small.

With such a large number of demonic beasts attacking, they could easily overwhelm and kill the cultivators of Zhang'e Peak.

After glancing at the battlefield, Shen Changqing made his move. With a single palm strike, all the demonic beasts within a million miles of the void froze for a moment before exploding without warning and instantly perishing on the spot.

Followed by.

Shen Changqing's divine sense spread out, transforming into a large net that covered the entire Transformation Heaven Realm.

next interest.

Inside the spider web.

The crimson light in the eyes of all the evil beasts dimmed, and they collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

Annihilate!

A single thought can wipe them all out!

From the Immortal Emperor realm to the Immortal King realm, regardless of their cultivation level, all of them perished at the same time.

The cultivators of Zhang'e Peak, who were fighting fiercely, were stunned when they saw this scene. They were almost unable to react and wondered what had happened.

next moment.

They gasped in shock, and when they looked at the figure in the void again, their eyes were filled with nothing but astonishment.

If Shen Changqing had struck with lightning speed, directly suppressing the evil spirits of the Transformation Heaven Realm, they might not have been so shocked.

But as it is now, without the other party making any move, they instantly wiped out all the evil beasts in the entire Huatian Realm. How could such a method not be terrifying?

"Thank you, Master!"

Ye Yun flew forward, a look of relief on his face.

Shen Changqing said, "The calamity of evil spirits in the Transformation Heaven Realm has been resolved, but now a large number of evil spirit kings have emerged in the Southern Yuan Dao Prefecture, so we still cannot be careless!"

"The disciple understands."

Ye Yun nodded solemnly.

Seeing this, Shen Changqing didn't say anything more. He then flicked his finger, and a drop of blood entered Ye Yun's body, leaving the other party with another way to save his life.

Then.

His figure faded away, disappearing completely in less than a few breaths.

"Respectfully bidding farewell to our Master!"

Ye Yun bowed respectfully.

The other cultivators from Zhang'e Peak also bowed respectfully in Shen Changqing's direction, saying, "Respectfully seeing off the Sect Master!"

Followed by.

Ye Yun turned around and looked at the many surviving high-ranking members of Zhang'e Peak. He ordered in a deep voice, "You all clean up the battlefield. Treat all seriously injured cultivators immediately. Also, collect the bodies of the dead and bring them back to the sect for burial."

"Yes!"

The numerous cultivators clasped their hands in acceptance of the order.

In the battle of the Heavenly Realm, all the evil beasts were wiped out, but Zhang'e Peak also suffered heavy losses.

Ye Yun's expression was somewhat unpleasant, but he didn't say much.

"There are many corpses on the path to immortality. Cultivation is like this. When you truly enter the semi-saint realm and achieve longevity, such things will become more and more common."

Perhaps some old friends grow old and eventually pass away peacefully, or perhaps some former enemies succumb to the erosion of time and eventually perish.

When it comes to life and death, just take it all in stride.

The words of Venerable Xuanxu came again, but Ye Yun remained silent for a while before sighing.

"Master is right!"

"But this is easier said than done!"

Although he has cultivated for many years, it is not easy for him to reach the level of Venerable Xuanxu.

……

After leaving the Celestial Realm, Shen Changqing did not return to the Seven Profound Dao Sect. Instead, he traveled through the Yama World, taking care of some world calamities along the way.

Again.

Come here.

Shen Changqing then took care of it as he pleased.

Moreover.

Suppress evil spirits and disasters.

They can also receive merit from Heaven.

After all, if one accumulates enough merit in the Heavenly Dao, there is a greater chance of attaining sainthood, thus preparing for becoming a saint in the future.

but.

It is not easy to achieve sainthood through meritorious deeds.

Let alone achieving sainthood through merit, even cultivating a golden body through merit is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

To achieve the Golden Body of Merit, one must first condense nine Golden Wheels of Merit, and only then can one transform into the Golden Body of Merit, unafraid of the Five Signs of Decay of Heaven and Man, and directly reach the Nine Tribulations Half-Saint realm.

at the moment.

Shen Changqing hadn't even fully condensed the first round of the Golden Wheel of Merit, let alone anything else.

but--

As the calamities in each world subsided, Shen Changqing could vaguely sense that his own merit had become somewhat more substantial, and he was getting closer and closer to condensing the first golden wheel of merit.

Of course.

This closeness.

Only relatively speaking.

After all, when Shen Changqing suppressed numerous calamities in the immortal realms, he only managed to condense a third of the Golden Wheel of Merit. How could the various worlds of the mortal realms compare to the immortal realms of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm?

Any immortal realm, in terms of the number of living beings and its vastness, is comparable to several worlds of the mortal realm, or even more.

For the past six months or so.

Shen Changqing casually accepted the mission from the Demon Extermination Alliance, simultaneously suppressing the evil spirits of hundreds or thousands of worlds, but the merit he could accumulate was limited.

When another world's evil calamity was suppressed, Shen Changqing looked inward and saw a golden light of merit hanging high in his sea of ​​consciousness, seemingly capable of transforming into a divine sun to illuminate all the filth in the world.

"As expected... consolidating the Golden Wheel of Merit is not so easy!"

"Given my current situation, I need to accumulate at least double the amount of merit before I have a chance to condense the first round of the Golden Wheel of Merit!"

Shen Changqing pondered to himself.

The first round of the Golden Wheel of Merit can at most make cultivators less afraid of the first Five Signs of Decay when they break through from Immortal Emperor to Half-Saint.

But that's about it.

The amount of Heavenly Merit required to truly condense the Nine Wheels of Merit is astronomical.

The merit required for each of the nine golden wheels of merit is not exactly the same; the merit required for the second golden wheel of merit is double that of the first.

visible.

The amount of merit required for the Nine-Wheel Golden Wheel of Merit is hundreds of times greater than that required for the First Wheel of Merit.

In this way...

This also illustrates the point.

Why are there so few powerful figures willing to take action now that evil spirits are rampant? If it weren't for the numerous rewards offered by the Demon Extermination Alliance, very few strong individuals would be willing to make a move.

After all.

This is because it is too difficult to obtain merit through the Heavenly Way.

For many immortals, they have survived one or even several instances of the five signs of decay.

To truly rely on the merits of Heaven to safely overcome all the subsequent five signs of decay in the celestial realm, and even to directly reach the realm of a sage, is like trying to catch the moon's reflection in water—completely unrealistic.

At most, some veteran Immortal Emperors who are expected to reach the Half-Saint realm in the next great calamity will take advantage of this opportunity to make a move, hoping to condense the first round of merit golden wheel in order to overcome the tribulation of immortality.

however.

Even the first round of the Golden Wheel of Merit is not easy to condense.

The fact that Shen Changqing has not yet condensed the first round of the Golden Wheel of Merit is enough to explain everything.

To truly achieve sainthood through merit, one must endure countless years of accumulation.

but--

Besides the merits of Heaven, Shen Changqing has collected a considerable amount of essence over the past six months. If things continue like this, there is hope that he can give birth to another immortal demon god.

half a month later.

The Seven Mysteries Mirror trembled.

Shen Changqing scanned the area with his divine sense and discovered that another sect disciple was requesting help. He glanced at the Yanfu World before him, then turned and left.

Since disciples of the sect have requested assistance, he, as the sect leader, naturally cannot sit idly by.

As Shen Changqing departed, in this world, a Demon King, lurking among numerous demonic beasts, wore a look of relief, as if he had survived a calamity. (End of Chapter)
