#524 - Goodbye Wu Changming
Chapter 521 Reunited with Wu Changming
The weight of gold and silver jewelry ultimately couldn't compare to the weight of the stone statue.
"A loss of wealth averts disaster! A loss of wealth averts disaster!" Zhang Chen didn't sense the presence of gold and silver jewelry in the yellow sand. He felt a pang of heartache. This was his hard-earned accumulation, all saved up little by little. It was the foundation for his future home and career. Now, it had all been blown away by a great wind. How could he not feel the pain?
Zhang Chen's heart ached terribly, but he was also powerless. It was already the greatest fortune that his family had managed to preserve their lives safely.
"This stone statue wasn't lost. Let's continue on our way." Zhang Chen moved the stone statue onto the donkey cart. The stone statue only weighed about two hundred pounds, which wasn't heavy for the donkey cart.
"I wonder how those large groups of people are doing now." Zhang Shi was somewhat compassionate, after all, the Dragon Tiger Escort Agency had treated her family well.
"Hopefully, they can escape safely." Zhang Chen sighed softly.
Now that his Blood Dao cultivation had advanced further and his abilities had improved, he had even more confidence in protecting his family.
Besides the Blood God Seed within Gong Bai's body, Zhang Chen also had six Blood God Seeds protecting him. Those six Blood God Seeds constantly patrolled the surroundings, enough to protect the safety of his entire family, resolving all troubles before they even came into sight.
However, using six Blood God Seeds for protection was a bit too extravagant. Zhang Chen attached the Blood God Seeds to the bodies of five birds, ordering them to patrol the Northern Lands, secretly infiltrating various battlefields, evolving into a sea of blood to absorb the blood from the battlefields. Zhang Chen only left one Blood God Seed, attached to the body of a sparrow, constantly patrolling within a radius of dozens of miles. If it discovered any wild beasts that had grown to a significant size, it would pounce on them without hesitation, resolving the issue before anything else.
The carriage continued on its way, but the road was full of yellow sand, making it difficult to travel. Even the sturdy old horse struggled to walk.
However, Zhang Chen had plenty of time and energy.
Now that the Northern Lands had experienced a downpour, it welcomed a long-awaited sunny day. Whether it was because there had been too much rain before and the world was adjusting itself, or for some other reason, the Northern Lands didn't even have half a cloud in the sky, giving Zhang Chen enough time to absorb the essence of the great sun.
As for food, the Northern Lands wasn't lacking in meat. Zhang Chen didn't need to hunt every day; the hunting falcon would automatically catch pheasants, rabbits, and sika deer, bringing food to Zhang Chen.
The only bad thing was that after the group had traveled for half a month, the rice and grain ran out.
What followed was a process of constantly eating meat, making the whole family feel greasy in their stomachs, but they had no choice but to maintain their lives with meat.
Three months later, just as Zhang Chen was about to walk out of the desert, Zhang Chen finally saw Buzhou Mountain in his mental world.
In the past few months, Zhang Chen had been diligently cultivating day and night, not even resting during the day, working hard to travel, and finally he had seen Buzhou Mountain.
The Second Heaven of the Mental World
In the endless sea, Zhang Chen transformed into a bat and flapped his wings, finally seeing the towering and undulating Buzhou Mountain from afar. The vast divine might, even across tens of thousands of miles, still made Zhang Chen's heart heavy. The power of blood in his body flowed sluggishly, and a sense of oppression that would destroy all laws surged into his heart.
"That's a section of Buzhou Mountain. I didn't expect that the Second Heaven of the Mental World is actually supported by Buzhou Mountain." Zhang Chen looked at the towering and undulating Buzhou Mountain, a hint of joy in his eyes.
"I wonder if there are any good fortunes in this Second Heaven of the Mental World." The Great自在天魔 (Da Zi Zai Tian Mo) drilled out at the right time, lying next to Zhang Chen's ear and said excitedly.
Zhang Chen heard this and said, "Whether there is any good fortune or not, we will fly over there and see."
Let's talk about a mansion in Jiangnan. The mansion covered dozens of acres, with pavilions and terraces, carved beams and painted pillars, and countless palace maids and guards.
In the most central room of the backyard, Wu Changming solemnly took out a fist-sized piece of purple metal from his sleeve. The purple metal was square, with mysterious runes flowing on it, like fish, constantly flowing on the metal, giving the whole metal a sense of inexplicable holiness.
"This thing was obtained from the First Heaven of the Mental World. It is a treasure from the ancient times. If it weren't for this thing, I would never have been able to cultivate to the realm of Yin God in a short period of time and get rid of the suffering of life and death." Wu Changming held the treasure in his hand, carefully looked at it a few times, then took out a censer from his sleeve, and then he put the metal block in the censer, and a fire starter appeared in his hand. The fire starter touched the metal block, and the metal block emitted wisps of green smoke.
When Wu Changming saw the metal block being ignited, he picked up the lid and covered the censer, sat cross-legged in front of the censer, his eyes full of heat: "Although I don't know why, I can no longer sense the First Heaven of the Mental World, but through my unremitting efforts, I have found this legendary dragon saliva of unknown grade, made into dragon saliva incense, I already have the opportunity to sense the Second Heaven of the Mental World. I am now proving the Yin God, and with the dragon saliva incense, I will definitely be able to step into the legendary Second Heaven of the Mental World."
Wu Changming sat cross-legged on the ground, pinched the seal in his hand, and saw that the dragon saliva incense fire was like a spiritual snake, drilling into Wu Changming's mouth and nose, and the next moment Wu Changming's Yin God was running, and his mind seemed to have been blessed by inexplicable power, appearing in an endless darkness.
"This darkness is the void of fixed concentration, only a mind that is extraordinary and refined can reach it." A hint of smugness appeared in Wu Changming's eyes, carefully looking at the endless darkness, and saw that in the darkness, there was a spot of light flashing, Wu Changming looked at the spot of light, a ray of divine light appeared in his eyes: "That's it! The Second Heaven of the Mental World, this time I must enter it!"
"As long as I enter the Second Heaven of the Mental World, I can get several times, dozens of times the cultivation speed. By then, I will definitely be able to catch up and return to the Yellow Turban Taoism as a Yang God again. By then, I will be the only Yang God in the Yellow Turban Taoism, even the Great Virtuous Teacher will never dare to underestimate me." A hint of determination appeared in Wu Changming's eyes, and without saying a word, he flew directly towards the Second Heaven of the Mental World.
I don't know how long it took, Wu Changming, with the help of the treasure dragon saliva incense, finally came to the Second Heaven of the Mental World, looking at the world barrier in front of him, a hint of heat appeared in Wu Changming's eyes: "Changing fate against the heavens is right in front of you!"
The next moment, Wu Changming's mind was shrouded in a layer of dragon-shaped aura, directly crashing towards the barrier of the Mental World, desperately squeezing towards the barrier of the Mental World: "I must break through and enter, there are countless elixir inside, there are countless secret treasures, I must reach the Second Heaven of the Mental World, only by entering the Second Heaven of the Mental World, I will have the opportunity to break through the Yang God, and even break through the tenth order, I will surpass the Great Virtuous Teacher and become the number one cultivator in the world!"
The dragon-shaped aura was like a sharp blade, directly piercing through the barrier of the Mental World. Although it was slow, it moved towards the Second Heaven of the Mental World unswervingly.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Give me a rush! I want to rush into the Second Heaven of the Mental World! I want you to change my fate! My fate is up to me, not the heavens!" Wu Changming felt the terrifying resistance from the barrier of the Mental World, his eyes were tearing apart, and his mental body was creaking, as if it was about to crack at any time, but even so, Wu Changming still refused to give up, because he knew that he only had one piece of this dragon saliva incense from the ancient times, and he only had one chance to break into the Mental World. Once he gave up, the dragon saliva incense would burn out, and he would have no chance.
Accompanied by his desperate struggle, he suddenly rushed into the Mental World, and under the protection of the dragon saliva incense, although he struggled, he never stopped, and finally at a certain moment, he broke through the barrier and entered the Mental World, hovering in the sky of the Mental World.
"Hahaha! Hahaha! I succeeded! I, Wu Changming, succeeded! From today onwards, the road to the sky is in front of me, my fate is up to me, not the heavens! I, Wu Changming, will definitely be able to prove the twelfth order and surpass the Great Virtuous Teacher!" Wu Changming laughed up to the sky, his eyes swept around, and he saw an endless sea appearing in front of him, before he could recover, at this time, a terrifying pressure came from the air, suppressing his Yin God, and even cutting off the connection between his mind and the flesh of the outside world, his Yin God could not use his means, and directly fell into the sea.
"Ah!"
Wu Changming screamed and fell directly into the sea. The sea was also a first-order monster, the tears of the Kaitian Water Spirit, and the power it emitted began to harm his Yin God. Although his Yin God's level was higher than the sea water, it could not withstand the endless sea water, constantly obliterating his Yin God.
It's like a volcano, although it is extremely hot, but falling into the sea, it can't withstand the vastness of the sea, right?
It is said that Zhang Chen turned into a vampire bat and was flapping his wings in the void. Because he had obtained divine power, Zhang Chen had some resistance to the divine power of Buzhou Mountain. It was not completely impossible to mobilize the power of supernatural powers. Zhang Chen was flapping his wings and flying when suddenly a series of shrill screams sounded on the empty sea. The key was that he was very familiar with the sound. If he remembered correctly, it was clearly the voice of his cheap master, Wu Changming.
"How could Wu Changming appear in the Second Heaven of the Mental World? Is it an illusion?" Zhang Chen looked surprised, looked around, and did not intend to pay attention to it. When he was about to continue flapping his wings and flying, he suddenly realized that the screams were getting louder and louder, as if they were ringing in his ears.
"Huh? What the hell?" Zhang Chen restored his human form, condensed an ice boat on the sea, and then listened carefully. This time he finally heard clearly that someone was shouting in the Mental World, and the other party's voice was Wu Changming.
"How could Wu Changming appear in the Second Heaven of the Mental World? This is the Second Heaven of the Mental World! Could it be that some evil spirit wants to harm me?" A hint of vigilance appeared in Zhang Chen's eyes, but he was not afraid, because his Righteous God Golden Light could already cause damage to tenth-order evil spirits. Facing all kinds of evil spirits, as long as the other party's strength was not too outrageous, he could turn the other party into his experience points.
