After greeting each other in front of the pavilion, both parties greeted each other by name. Meng Zhen then welcomed Mo Du into the pavilion. As the vice envoy, Gongzi Huai followed beside him.
As for the rest of them, there were disciples who came to arrange a place for them to stay.
Just Now, when the three of them stepped into the pavilion, a voice came from outside, "I heard that senior apprentice-brother is entertaining a guest, so I wanted to see the elegance of the cultivators of this world."
Mo Du turned his head and saw a young man with a golden hairstyle walking in. His aura was unusually grand. He guessed that this was a very important figure among the people from outer space.
Meng Zhen said, "Fellow Daoist Mo, this is my junior apprentice-brother, Sun Zhiyan."
Mo Du put his hands together and bowed, "Fellow Daoist Sun."
Sun Zhiyan came here because he was interested in the Mystic cultivators of this world. In his eyes, although Mo Du's Qi was not strong, it was already above the Yuanying cultivators. Even if it was not as strong as the Xiangxiang cultivators, it was not too far off. Moreover, Mo Du seemed to be able to resonate with the heaven and earth here. He guessed that Mo Du had some extraordinary skills, so he raised his hands and bowed.
At this moment, Gongzi Huai swayed slightly. His face was pale and he was sweating profusely.
In the past, he often came into contact with the Great Mystic cultivators, but they were different from the ancient demons. When they did not use their supernatural powers, they were no different from ordinary people. Just Now, Meng Zhen also purposely kept his Qi dynamic, so he did not feel anything. However, he did not expect that the Spirit Tide on Sun Zhenren was so vast. It was like a huge wave surging towards him, and the pressure almost made him lose his balance. If he was not a Spirit Form Mystic cultivator, he would have already collapsed to the ground.
Sun Zhenren saw it and immediately knew what was going on, so he kept his Qi dynamic.
Only then did Gongzi Huai recover, and he bowed deeply, "Please forgive me for my lack of manners."
Meng Zhen thought for a while, and took out an item from his sleeve. He said, "I have a 'Heart-guarding Dragon Tiger Jade' here, it can help to strengthen one's Qi and not be tainted by external evils. Today, I will give it to you. "
Gongzi Huai took a look at Mo Du, and the latter nodded. He straightened his robe and hat and walked forward. He thanked her and accepted it.
As soon as the jade was in his hand, he felt full of energy. His breathing was smooth, his ears were clear, and his eyes were clear. It was as if his feet had roots. Just Now, that uncomfortable feeling had been completely swept away.
He knew that this must be a treasure, so he took out a flat pouch embroidered with ghost runes and divine diagrams, and took out a dragon-headed golden seal that looked like a seal. He held it up with both hands and bowed as he presented it to Miao Yi, saying, "I also ask Master to accept this item."
Meng Zhen nodded, and a child beside him stepped forward to receive it.
Sun Zhenren looked at the pouch with interest and said, "Can you let I take a look at this Qiankun pouch?"
Young Master Huai was slightly startled, and hurriedly said, "Why not?"
Sun Zhenren focused his gaze. The pouch flew in front of him, and after a few glances, he said, "This item is a complete whole. Even though it has been decorated, it still has fur patterns. It must have been taken from a living creature, and not refined by human hands."
Young Master Huai couldn't help but be impressed, "Master is very accurate. This pouch was taken from a type of 'Jugan' beast, and then refined by a craftsman. If Master likes it, I can send a few over. "
This' Jugan 'was not easy to catch, and they were rare, so this pouch could only be carried by great mystic masters like Mo Du or nobles. This was not like the nine continents, where only the lower generation cultivators could use the Qiankun Sleeve Pouch.
Sun Zhenren could see that the refining that Young Master Huai mentioned was just to decorate the outside with patterns, and it looked more exquisite, but there wasn't much change on the inside. From this, it could be deduced that the path of refining existed in this world, but it was very rough, and had yet to reach a higher level.
After talking for a while, they became more familiar with each other, and gradually turned to the main topic.
Mo Du said, "Pardon me for asking, but I wonder where are you all from?"
This trip was nothing more than to find out where these people from beyond the heavens came from, and what they wanted to do. Only by understanding these two points, would there be a possibility of continuing the discussion.
Meng Zhen didn't hide anything, and said, "The place we were originally at is called the nine continents, but this world has been opened for billions of years, and the spiritual vigor has long declined, so my sect leader led the cultivators of various sects to your honorable place."
At this point, he bowed, "What we seek is to spread our teachings in this world, to establish a sect, and to continue our sect's teachings."
"I see."
Mo Du didn't find it hard to understand. Even if it was the Shen Fang Country Middle School, they could only pass on the wisdom of their predecessors through endless inheritance. As for whether what the other said was true or false, they could slowly find out in the future, and there was no need to get to the bottom of it now.
He thought for a while, and said, "I'm afraid it won't be easy for your side to establish a sect in the Eastern Wastelands. On this land, most of the lands are already occupied by the demons. Since the collapse of the Eastern Wastelands, the other countries can only stay in their corners, barely resisting the demons, and no longer have the strength to go out on expeditions to recover lost lands."
Enlightened Master Sun sneered and said, "Over here, there is an Ancient Demon wreaking havoc, and in the land of my Nine Continents, there is also a calamity like the Heavenly Demon. In the past, this generation was completely annihilated by the predecessors of our various sects. Later on, our sects were established on their corpses. In my opinion, today is merely repeating the actions of our predecessors.
Young Master Huai was frightened when he heard this.
Mo Du, however, remained calm. Since the other said this in front of him, then his target was the demons of the Eastern Wastelands, and this did not conflict with the original intention of coming here.
Meng Zhen said in a deep voice, "In that case, the original Eastern Wastelands, thousands of years ago, was under the rule of your God Kingdom."
Mo Du said solemnly, "Exactly."
Meng Zhen nodded, and did not continue speaking.
This was the first time the two sides came into contact, and some things could be mentioned slowly, there was no need to rush, so they changed the topic to the path of cultivation.
Although the cultivators of the nine continents had previously obtained the jade scrolls, and knew a little about the path of cultivation in this world, they did not know the details. After listening to Mo Du's words, Just Now, they knew that the so-called Mystic Cultivator first used the method of strengthening vitality, taking external medicine, and conditioning one's internal organs, tendons, bones, essence, primordial spirit, and Qi. This step could be said to involve both Qi and strength.
And when one's external Yang and internal Yin were both full, it was the realm of Internal Consolidation. This step, however, was to abandon the path of Qi, and further strengthen the body, like filling up a pool of water. At the realm of Opening Aperture, one could use one's Qi and blood to communicate with heaven and earth, and use all kinds of unpredictable methods. However, there were still many shortcomings in this realm, but they could be made up for through the path of talismans and external objects.
At the realm of Spirit Image, Mystic Cultivators could use their Qi and blood as a foundation, and use their consciousness to create a "spirit image". Their battle power now was not comparable to before.
However, this kind of cultivation method did not have any major barriers in each realm, and was very rough and blurry. Luckily, if a Mystic Cultivator's talent was not too bad, as long as they were willing to use external medicine, it was not difficult to push them to the realm of Spirit Image. But to go further, it was not so easy.
Sun Zhenren raised his eyebrows, and said, "Fellow Daoist Mo, you have already cultivated to the realm of Opening Mystic, I wonder if I have the honor to learn a thing or two from you?"
Mo Du also knew that if his side did not show enough strength, these cultivators did not need to bother with them, so he nodded and agreed.
Sun Zhenren was a person who did what he wanted to do, and he did not stand on ceremony. With a wave of his sleeve, he turned into a beam of light and flew out of the pavilion, flying up into the sky.
Mo Du chanted a few words, and a black cloud appeared outside his body, wrapping around him, and he flew up as well.
Meng Zhen waved his sleeve, and the pavilion around him instantly disappeared, no longer blocking their vision. Seeing such a method, Young Master Huai could not help but be amazed.
After Sun Zhenren and Mo Du reached the top, they both stood still.
Behind Sun Zhenren, a ball of Qi slowly appeared. Thunder rumbled, and heavy water bobbed up and down. Bolts of lightning flashed back and forth, and the aura was shocking.
At the place where Mo Du was standing, blood Qi slowly spread out. Then, it condensed and turned into a creature with two wings spread out, a tail and fins, a horn on its head, and teeth like swords. It looked like a bird and a fish, and it didn't look any different from a living creature.
Meng Zhen looked at it and nodded, thinking, "So this is the realm of Opening Mystic. It really can transform a human into a great demon, similar to the path of strength, but also different."
At this moment, the two in the sky had already collided. Because it was not a battle of life and death, they were just testing each other's methods. Therefore, after fighting for a dozen rounds, they both stopped and descended from the sky.
After Sun Zhenren stood still, he said bluntly, "Fellow Daoist Mo's method is powerful, but it is not your own ability. In this world, it might be strong for a while, but in the virtual sky, it will be beaten back to its original state."
He could see that Mo Du's ability was probably above that of a Nascent Body cultivator, but slightly weaker than Daoist Dongtian. His divine arts and spells did not have many variations, but he had the ability to use the spiritual vigor of heaven and earth for his own use. Once he did so, he could unleash power that was a few times stronger than his own.
Mo Du said, "I do not seek immortality, I only seek for the longevity of the country."
Both of them sought different things, so their paths of Dao were naturally different.
No matter what the origin of the cultivation techniques of the nine continents was, the ultimate goal was to break through the world and ascend, to seek for immortality. Therefore, all divine arts and spells came from oneself. Even if one went to a place without any spiritual vigor, one could still ensure that one's combat power would not be lost.
Mystic cultivators were different. The reason why they cultivated was to defend against demons and spirits, so that they could reproduce and survive. Therefore, they only pursued the power of divine arts. As for the rest, as long as it was not beneficial to battle, they could give it up.
Meng Zhen said, "If Fellow Daoist Mo can let go of worldly matters, you might be able to improve on the path of Dao."
Mo Du shook his head and said, "A country cannot be without a cultivator, and a cultivator cannot be without a country."
The countries nurtured cultivators for them to serve the country. Since they received this favor, they had to bear this responsibility, and it was impossible for them to give it up.
Moreover, once a Mystic cultivator left their country, they would not be able to enjoy the offerings of the country, nor would they be able to cultivate. It was even more impossible for them to survive in the wasteland that was filled with demons and spirits.
It could be said that the two depended on each other, and neither could be missing.
At this moment, Sun Zhenren said, "May I ask, in the East Barren, how many Great Mystic cultivators are there like Fellow Daoist Mo?"
Mo Du thought about it and felt that there was nothing to hide. Even if he did not say, the other party could find an answer elsewhere, so he said, "In the East Barren countries, there are six big countries and thirteen small countries. The rest are all weak countries, and each country needs at least two Great Mystic cultivators. Just Now, we are considered big countries. East Barren country has five Great Mystic cultivators. In my Shenfang country, including me, there are four. The remaining four countries each have three Great Mystic cultivators. Among the hundred countries, there are about thirty Great Mystic cultivators. On the surface, there are many, but the countries are scattered, and they have to face different tribes and races, so they are unable to unite. If a few ancient demons join forces and attack, the country will be in danger of being destroyed."
