Chapter 538 You Are Also a Zhuzhou! (1w1, First Update)

It was already beyond words.

Faced with someone who had demonstrated their own path and enlightenment, any words were superfluous, nothing more than the saying that the righteous gain much support, while the unrighteous find little.

Although filled with doubts and incomprehension, Ming Zhengde's path was 'correct', at least compared to the gods and demons, and compared to this unrighteous world, he was not wrong.

Therefore, Su Zhou and Ming Zhengde signed a contract.

There was no force involved, nor any mediation, neither a curse of the heart-devil, nor an oath of the Great Dao. The so-called contract between the two was nothing more than a 'verbal agreement'.

Originally, such a cooperative contract should have been enforced by the power of will of billions of people of the New Dynasty, coupled with Ming Zhengde's Five Virtues Divine Light great divine power.

But for Su Zhou, Ming Zhengde chose to give up all coercion and restraint.

Instead, he 'believed'.

"If you promise, you will do it. You are free and unfettered, but you will never deceive yourself. So, the greatest constraint on you comes from yourself."

Saying this, Ming Zhengde kept one of the two 'contract originals' for himself, which were merely drawn with ordinary spiritual ink and paper, difficult to damage, but without any effect, and then handed the other one to Su Zhou.

As Su Zhou took it, he smiled calmly and said: "I can see that you are that kind of person."

"You should be glad that I am not one of the pioneers - they would have deliberately violated the contract at this time."

Shaking his head slightly, the youth put this contract original into his personal space. He complained in words that Ming Zhengde couldn't understand, but the Holy Emperor didn't care: "But you aren't."

Su Zhou was indeed not.

With the strength that he and Ming Zhengde possessed, even if the God-Emperor and Demon King personally took action, as long as they weren't personally monitoring them at all times, there would always be a way to bypass the contract if they wanted to.

Even ordinary Heavenly Immortals would find it difficult to personally capture and suppress them unless they fought with all their strength, let alone relying on mere contract restrictions.

If Su Zhou really wanted to violate the contract wholeheartedly, what could the power of will of billions of living beings do to Su Zhou? He himself was blessed with countless merits, and was almost immune to ordinary will curses.

Therefore, rather than using force to restrain, it was better to use sincerity.

And Su Zhou always kept his word.

The content of the contract was actually not complicated, especially considering that both parties were quite upright gentlemen - at least they wouldn't, and wouldn't bother to play any word games, so many restrictions to prevent petty people didn't need to be mentioned.

- First of all, the first article.

Su Zhou was to help Ming Zhengde complete the entire Zhongda Zhou's (Central Continent) 'Ying Tian Cheng Qi · Jue Di Tian Tong' (Responding to Heaven Receiving Qi · Severing Earth Connecting Heaven) formation.

This super formation, built around the 'Five Virtues Responding to Heaven Receiving Qi Great Formation' as its core, was planned by Ming Zhengde for decades, designed with three thousand lifetimes of planning, and could use the power of the five major central earth veins of the entire Zhongda Zhou to perform the power of Jue Di Tian Tong, a god-banning method that surpassed gods and demons.

If this formation was completed, it could condense endless earth vein power and transform it into the highest level of 'Heavenly Human Genesis Five Virtues Divine Light', turning it into an incredible barrier that enveloped the entire Tianyuan Mortal Realm, completely isolating the influence of the Immortal Heaven and the Nine Abyss, and even extraterrestrial demons would not be able to invade.

Of course, even a super giant formation of this level cannot create something from nothing, and directly use the earth vein power to nurture the Five Virtues Divine Light, a phoenix divine power, so it needs a hub for conversion.

And the hub for this conversion was naturally Ming Zhengde himself.

As long as Ming Zhengde sat on the Lingxiao (High Heaven) Emperor's Throne in the Zhongtu (Central Earth) capital when the great formation was completed, the great formation would be indestructible.

"Baishan (White Mountain), Canghai (Blue Sea), Chiqiu (Red Hill), Jinye (Gold Field), and the 'Zhongtu (Central Earth)' that governs the center."

When telling the plan, Ming Zhengde's eyes were bright, and he used divine light to transform into a light screen, explaining to Su Zhou, who looked serious: "These five central earth veins since ancient times are the core of all plans. The Beiling (North Ridge) Mountains are an important tributary of the 'Baishan (White Mountain) Central Earth Vein', so a earth vein sacrificial pillar can be set there to connect the earth vein power."

"Beiling (North Ridge) has been detected, but it doesn't matter. After three thousand rebirths, I have already prepared one hundred and forty-nine alternative sacrificial pillar locations, which can be replaced at any time. Gods and demons cannot guess them all."

What could Su Zhou say to this?

One hundred and forty-nine, and he calls that a backup? When he heard this, the youth thought he had misheard an 'one hundred'.

Is being a reborn person so amazing!

In fact, reborn people are really amazing.

Under Ming Zhengde's extremely detailed explanation, Su Zhou also completely understood the details of his plan.

Chiqiu (Red Hill), the earth vein of fire, so Chiqiu has a lot of spiritual fire, burning the fire energy of Bingding (third and fourth of the ten Heavenly Stems), so it is moistened with twelve wood sacrificial pillars.

Jinye (Gold Field), the earth vein of wood, so Jinye has a lot of grass and plants, producing the wood energy of Jiayi (first and second of the ten Heavenly Stems), so it is moistened with twelve water sacrificial pillars.

Canghai (Blue Sea), the earth vein of water, so Canghai has a lot of clear springs, containing the water energy of Rengui (ninth and tenth of the ten Heavenly Stems), so it is moistened with twelve metal sacrificial pillars.

Baishan (White Mountain), the earth vein of metal, so Baishan has a lot of divine iron, opening the metal energy of Gengxin (seventh and eighth of the ten Heavenly Stems), so it is moistened with twelve earth sacrificial pillars.

Zhongtu (Central Earth), the earth vein of earth, so Zhongtu has a lot of fertile land, producing the earth energy of Wuji (fifth and sixth of the ten Heavenly Stems), so it is moistened with twelve fire sacrificial pillars.

The Jiazi (sexagenary cycle) sacrificial pillars connect the spiritual machine of heaven and earth. The capital of the New Dynasty, Kyoto, is located directly above the 'Central Wuji (fifth and sixth of the ten Heavenly Stems) Earth Vein'.

Ming Zhengde took the Zhongtu earth vein as the starting point, spreading the formation to the four states of Chiqiu, Jinye, Canghai, and Baishan, and using them as the prototype to build the foundation of the Ying Tian Cheng Qi Five Virtues Great Formation. When all sixty sacrificial pillars were in place and activated one by one, he could use the power of the continent to build a Tianyuan barrier, a ten-state barrier, to block all influence of gods and demons on the Tianyuan mortal world.

Even extraterrestrial demons would never be able to invade, because at that time, to enter the Tianyuan Mortal Realm, one would have to face the mass of the entire world.

"Very powerful... a very complete plan!"

With a sigh of admiration, from Su Zhou's point of view, the great formation designed by Ming Zhengde was very ingenious. Whether inside or outside, the opponent would need the power to destroy more than half of the Tianyuan Mortal Realm with one blow to break the Ying Tian Cheng Qi Great Formation barrier.

In fact, the Ying Tian Cheng Qi Five Virtues Great Formation was almost complete. Except for some special earth vein nodes where it was difficult to avoid the prying eyes of gods and demons when placing the sacrificial pillars, most of the earth vein sacrificial pillars were already in place.

As for the various evil auras of Kyoto... they were actually all a deception to the gods and demons.

Whether it was the inexplicable strong winds and heavy rains, heavy smog and heavy snow, they were all misleading, making the gods and demons think that the power of the human race was only this much, that although they could build a celestial phenomenon great formation, it wouldn't pose a threat to them.

On the contrary, doing nothing would arouse the vigilance of the gods and demons, so it was better to really do it and sell a flaw.

But who knew that Ming Zhengde had left many foreshadowings and hidden hands when he led the Five Virtues Sect in conquering the world decades ago, laying the foundation for the great formation in the future?

Even the gods and demons could not have guessed that Ming Zhengde had already begun to lay the foundation for a great formation based on the Zhongda Zhou, and even the entire Tianyuan Mortal Realm, to deal with the gods and demons in the future when he was weak and before his rise.

"But, can it be blocked?"

But Su Zhou's question also sounded at the same time.

This was not nitpicking.

Because he had already made up his mind to help, even though he felt complicated about Ming Zhengde's perfect grand ambition that made people feel silent, the youth was truly helping wholeheartedly at this moment.

He frowned slightly, pointing to the entire Tianyuan Mortal Realm map displayed by Ming Zhengde, towards the two blank areas of 'Dongda Zhou (Eastern Continent)' and 'Nanda Zhou (Southern Continent)', and said in a serious tone: "The power of a continent does indeed surpass ordinary gods and demons. After all, this world is so vast, and a single state is not something that ordinary Heavenly Immortals can destroy, let alone a continent?"

"But the Southeast Continents have been submerged, and according to the rumors I have heard in the past, it seems that this was done by the gods and demons... Ming Zhengde, are you sure that doing so will not turn the Zhongda Zhou into the next submerged continent?"

This was a very reasonable question, so Ming Zhengde also answered seriously: "The Southeast Continents were submerged due to the 'Great Ominous', which is the ancient history of 450,000 years ago. At that time, the Heavenly Emperor was still 'Taihao', and the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Lord had not yet been born."

"Although, according to legend, the ominous is some kind of invisible demon, a kind of eerie thing close to a curse, I know that the real ominous is actually a kind of decline specifically targeting 'gods and demons'!"

"The Five Declines of Heaven and Man - in the areas where the ominous occurs, the longevity tribulation of gods and demons will be suddenly strengthened countless times, accelerating them to the point of nirvana! And the submergence of the continents is not caused by the attacks of gods and demons at all, but because the number of declining gods and demons reached a certain amount, satisfying certain conditions, so these continents 'returned to their place' and sank into the earth veins!"

Speaking of this, even Ming Zhengde showed an extremely apprehensive expression.

He took a deep breath, and then looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Deep in the earth veins, there is the source of the longevity tribulation, containing great horror and great ominousness. Even the gods and demons of the past are nothing more than fruits waiting to be harvested in front of it."

"As far as I know, if the five continents all sink and return to the sea, then the real ominous will descend, causing the Tianyuan Mortal Realm to return to the original chaos, and the existence of gods and demons will undoubtedly accelerate this - so the gods and demons have all left the mortal realm."

"However, the gods and demons are also coveting this power, so they have been trying to rely on us humans to influence the world and carry out various plans."

"Now, the Southeast two continents have sunk, the Western Continent is gradually falling into silence, and the Northern Continent has already fallen into frost. Only a few remaining alien races survive, and only the Zhongda Zhou is still habitable, still maintaining the prosperous scene of millions of years ago."

Ming Zhengde made several arrows on the light screen, which were diagrams showing the changes in the earth vein power of the Southeast, Northwest four continents: "I have personally surveyed the various continents in the past and have confirmed that the earth vein power of many continents has begun to converge towards the Zhongda Zhou, so one continent is equivalent to one realm."

"Similarly, the current activity of the earth veins is far greater than it was hundreds of thousands of years ago, which is why I can use the power of the great formation to activate it."

"I see." Staring at the light screen, Su Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly.

Recalling the fragment of that huge will that he had encountered deep in the earth veins, the guess in his heart became clearer, and he also understood that Ming Zhengde's speculation was indeed correct.

The power of the Tianyuan Mortal Realm did exceed everyone's imagination. Just the fact that even going millions of meters deep was only the beginning of entering the surface of the earth veins was enough to know that this world was unimaginably huge - if it really proceeded according to Ming Zhengde's plan, it might really be enough to block the God Emperors and Demon Kings.

The plan was very complete.

And what Su Zhou had to do was to use his personal space to isolate the earth vein sacrificial pillars from his aura and insert all these key great formation cores into the corresponding earth vein nodes.

This was not difficult, just a simple errand.

With Su Zhou's speed as a divine bird, and the carrying capacity of his personal space, he could probably get it all done in about ten days.

This speed amazed Ming Zhengde as well. You must know that he had spent decades, almost thinking about relevant issues as soon as he was reborn, spending countless energy on these sixty Jiazi (sexagenary cycle) sacrificial pillars.

But now, with the arrival of Zhuzhou, everything was solved easily.

- Secondly, the second article.

Su Zhou should assist Ming Zhengde in blocking the Nine Abyss Demon Army that would invade from Baishan State in the future.

"Why can you be sure that it will definitely be Baishan? Are the gods and demons really so rigid?"

Hearing this, Su Zhou was quite curious, and Ming Zhengde smiled slightly: "It's not that they are rigid, but if there are no accidents, they will naturally choose the most convenient place."

"You see, the edge of Baishan State does not completely belong to my New Dynasty. In this coastal mountain area, there is also a small country called 'Wei State'."

In the Tianyuan Warring States era, ten thousand countries competed for hegemony.

Although Zhengyang State used the might of Nan Zhengkai and the Azure Firmament Zhengyang Ruler to subdue the various countries, and the New Dynasty also stepped on the remains of Zhengyang State to end the chaos, neither side had any intention of conquering small countries like Wei State, which were located on the edge of the world, had no resources, and were difficult to attack.

And most importantly, behind Wei State, there was the support of the Nine Abyss Heavenly Demons.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, in the Baishan State of Zhongda Zhou, there was a land bridge connected to the Dongda Zhou.

And the original site of the Nine Abyss, which had never left the mortal realm in ancient times, was located at the bottom of Dongda Zhou.

Western Immortal Heaven, Eastern Nine Abyss. In a certain place in Dongda Zhou, there was even a space-time bridge leading to the Nine Abyss Demon Earth.

If the Heavenly Demons were to descend into the world, if they really had to choose a place, it could only be Dongda Zhou, and then use Wei State as a springboard to enter Zhongzhou.

"As long as I don't conquer Wei State, the Nine Abyss Demon Army will definitely gather and set off there."

This was the reason why Ming Zhengde kept Wei State unconquered, and why the Nine Abyss chose Baishan as the entry point every time.

"Not difficult."

Su Zhou nodded, he agreed without hesitation.

Since Ming Zhengde could almost block it in the past, adding him this time, of course they could succeed.

These were the only two requests that Ming Zhengde had for Su Zhou in the contract.

Of course, in addition to this, the two sides also had some small-scale cooperation.

For example, Ming Zhengde hoped to obtain Su Zhou's method of easily isolating the thoughts of gods and demons - that is, he wanted to learn some of the divine powers of the Evil-Eating Demon Lord that fed on the will and resentment.

And Ming Zhengde also hoped to exchange information and resources related to the Divine Tree with Su Zhou.

"No problem, I also want to learn a little bit of earth-type divine power techniques from you, or rather, I'm very interested in your Five Virtues Divine Light as a whole."

Su Zhou readily agreed to Ming Zhengde's request, and Ming Zhengde also readily agreed to Su Zhou's request: "Okay, I will condense the divine power imprint and give it to you later."

Although they were both divine power inheritances involving the foundations of both sides' powers, neither of them hesitated at all.

For Su Zhou, spreading his divine power inheritance itself represented the spread of his Dao, so there was no need to refuse at all.

And for the reborn person, the sacrifice of a mere lifetime was not called sacrifice at all. He had the next lifetime. At that time, other than the inheritance in his memory that could be carried, all other resources were just fleeting clouds.

Everything would start again.

Therefore, Ming Zhengde never took such resources and inheritances to heart, and gave them away casually and exchanged them at will. In short, he would earn no matter what.

And for Su Zhou, it was almost the same - how could he lose by getting a new inheritance? He could only make a pure profit.

Since neither side could lose.

Then naturally both sides would be happy, win-win, and mutually beneficial.

This was the benefit brought by a way of thinking different from ordinary people.

In a sense, Su Zhou and Ming Zhengde were both very 'monstrous'.

Aside from giving, the next thing was rewards.

First of all, Ming Zhengde and the New Dynasty would be responsible for all the materials needed to upgrade the Blade of Annihilation to a Dao Soldier.

Whether it was all kinds of extremely precious auxiliary spiritual materials and spiritual iron, or information on the location of the priceless Suppressing Prison Subduing Demon Iron, or inviting the 'Contemporary Vermilion Bird' to take action and reshape the foundation of the divine weapon for the Blade of Annihilation, all belonged to this part.

And the 'Suppressing Prison Subduing Demon Iron', this incomparably miraculous Dao Soldier raw material, was condensed by the spirits of billions of demons, merging the whole spirit and soul of the Suppressing Prison Daoist of the past.

Its quality was half spiritual and half iron, the most suitable material for a divine blade attached with the endless will of all living beings like the Blade of Annihilation, and it could greatly strengthen its special ability to kill the immortal and kill all evil demons.

Because Ming Zhengde needed to sit in the center, he could not personally bring back the Subduing Demon Iron, so he could only provide information and let Su Zhou take it himself.

The youth didn't care about this, and he was naturally extremely satisfied with the nature of the Subduing Demon Iron.

"The Suppressing Prison Subduing Demon Iron is a spiritual divine iron, not visible to ordinary people. Those who can hold it must be those who can sit in hell and save all demons."

"However, I believe that you, Real Person Zhuzhou, will definitely meet the requirements."

Ming Zhengde's tone was matter-of-fact, and Su Zhou also nodded, he smiled: "To be fair, yes."

"I do meet the requirements."

Secondly, the New Dynasty also had to collect all kinds of Five Elements spiritual objects for Su Zhou's personal space to enrich the spiritual energy cycle inside the small world.

Like the earth vein sacrificial pillars, if possible, the New Dynasty also needed to provide Su Zhou with four earth vein sacrificial pillars of other attributes as objects to suppress the Five Elements and gather the Dragon Veins.

As for other things like collecting relevant inheritances, providing cultivation resources, and various rewards, they were quite unimportant. After all, for Su Zhou, the Tianyuan Realm was just a place he was passing through, he was just a passerby.

Ming Zhengde also knew this, so after the two sides had a general conversation, they finalized the relevant terms.

"It's almost like this."

At this moment, the private exchange between Su Zhou and Ming Zhengde could be said to be nearing its end.

Because it was just the first cooperation between them, being able to discuss to this point was already very satisfactory.

After all, one was a transmigrator and the other was a reborn person, and they both knew that there was no need to talk nonsense. Their purposes were also very clear, and the communication was straightforward and explicit.

"Later, I will arrange for 'Contemporary Vermilion Bird', this senior divine bird, to meet you - it is a true grandmaster of weapon refinement. Even if I am reborn three ten thousand times, because I have not put my heart into it in this aspect, I am still not as good as it."

Saying this, Ming Zhengde spoke of the Vermilion Bird with a hint of rare reverence: "Senior Vermilion Bird will be born for the sake of all living beings in every life, and is a well-deserved virtuous divine bird, a respectable old senior."

"This time, after hearing of your existence, it took the initiative to leave its nest - if your divine blade originally had a 10% chance of advancing to a Dao Soldier, then Vermilion Bird can raise this possibility to 60%, 70%!"

"I understand."

Su Zhou nodded slightly. The existence that Ming Zhengde could call with a respectful tone was enough to show how flawless his own morality was.

- Wanting to achieve that there was not a single black history in the three ten thousand lives, even Su Zhou himself would not dare to guarantee it.

No, rather, it was because he was Su Zhou that he would not dare to guarantee it!

At this moment, sensing that the exchange between Su Zhou and Ming Zhengde was about to end, the aura that had sealed off the imperial palace study was slowly being released.

The New Dynasty ministers who had been waiting patiently in the outer hall also began to move slightly, preparing to prepare for the next series of matters.

Su Zhou naturally would not follow Ming Zhengde to arrange the next tasks with the New Dynasty ministers.

However, just as he was about to leave.

The youth suddenly turned his head and looked at the Emperor who had already sat back in the study chair, seemingly intending to reorganize the next plan once again.

"Ming Zhengde, after thinking about it, I still intend to give you a piece of advice in the end."

Letting out a breath, Su Zhou's tone was solemn at this moment. He frowned, and looked at the slightly surprised Ming Zhengde: "You are indeed a good person with great aspirations... but, from my personal experience, your path has a problem."

"I once hoped that there would only be pure goodness in the world, and that I would use my power as punishment from heaven to eliminate all evil - but in the end, the facts proved that it was just a kind of wrong and evil path."

Saying this, Su Zhou did not shy away from revealing his past thoughts: "Just like you are now, Ming Zhengde, you are bearing everything for the sake of the common people of the world. Do you want to take on all their responsibilities with your own strength?"

"Why not? I have such divine power, and I can be reborn, so why can't I bear all the responsibilities?"

To this, Ming Zhengde raised his head, he answered seriously, without the slightest hesitation.

"That's right."

This time, Su Zhou didn't even argue.

He admitted the other party's correctness: "It is precisely because of this point that I am willing to help you."

But soon, the youth changed the subject: "But, Ming Zhengde, don't forget - these living beings of the world are not used to satisfy the perfect toy in your heart alone."

"Perhaps some people, their perfection is to do evil, is to harm others. In order to achieve their own evil, even if it is a dead end, they would rather smash into the south wall than repent."

"Perhaps some people have long known that they have done the wrong thing, they know it clearly, but they still struggle, willing to bear the mistakes, pay the price, and enjoy it."

"These people may not want, be able to want, or need your perfection."

Saying this, Su Zhou's tone became a little subtle: "Ming Zhengde... taking on the responsibilities of all living beings alone, paying for them, but not letting them pay for themselves. Can such people truly bloom their own perfect brilliance?"

"Aren't the sacrifices of other people sacrifices?"

"You protect other people too well, only you sacrifice alone, can this be considered perfection? There will always be people who love you who would rather sacrifice themselves than see you suffer. Have you thought about their thoughts?"

Speaking to this point, Su Zhou suddenly had a thought in his heart.

At this moment, he finally realized where the trace of 'wrongness' that he had sensed from Ming Zhengde's words before was.

So, he shook his head and smiled helplessly: "Most importantly, will there really be the perfection you want in this world?"

"If you always expect a better future, then there will be no end to perfection. You will never be able to achieve a perfect ending, but will continue to repeat it countless times."

"But if you identify an ending as perfect, then everything is fixed, there is no room for anything better, and there will be no more joy... Such a dead and rigid future is like a task that has achieved its goal. Even if everything is achieved, then what is the point?"

"Can this be called perfection?"

"What do you think is the best way to deal with this paradox?"

After saying this, Su Zhou did not wait for the stunned Ming Zhengde to answer, and directly pushed open the study door, preparing to leave.

And at this moment, he saw an official with a fair and beardless face, and a rather young face, looking at him with a somewhat dazed look, his mouth slightly open.

That was Cangsong - Ming Zhengde's confidant, the person who should have helped Ming Zhengde and him discuss matters related to the contract.

Even the sect leader of the Five Virtues Sect could only stand in the corridor. Only Cangsong had the authority to enter and leave the study at will and join this discussion.

He seemed to have just finished dealing with matters related to the remnants of Zhengyang, preparing to come in to report, but he heard the words that Su Zhou said when he was about to leave, so he was a little shocked and stood there in a daze.

"We're done talking, it's okay, my cooperation with Ming Zhengde was very pleasant."

Su Zhou smiled, and didn't say much to Cangsong. He directly strode out of the imperial palace, and then transformed into a stream of light, disappearing at the edge of the city.

"What exactly happened..."

To this, Cangsong, who didn't know how much he had heard, stared at Su Zhou's back. He subconsciously clenched his fists, and then noticed the atmosphere in the study, and then hurriedly entered.

And just as Cangsong entered the study door, he saw that Ming Zhengde, who had always been in control and had a dignified and calm temperament, was sitting on the chair in the study at this moment. The jade crown on his head was placed on the table, but he had forgotten to wear it on his head, and was a little flustered.

"Yes, that's right..."

The man murmured in a low voice. The problems that Su Zhou pointed out were very clear to Ming Zhengde himself, but that was the problem.

Because he wanted to save everyone, even if one more person died, he would not hesitate to specifically save them in the next life.

He was indeed the kind of person who would do this, he knew his own heart.

But, just as Su Zhou said -

What if the person being saved didn't want to be saved?

What if the person being saved thought that this was their glory and belonging?

Forced melons are not sweet, and forced perfection is meaningless.

Therefore, Ming Zhengde was speechless.

"Zhengde?"

At this moment, Cangsong called out Ming Zhengde's name with some worry, instead of the title Your Majesty that he usually called him: "What's wrong with you? What exactly did Real Person Zhuzhou say?"

"...Ah, Cangsong..."

Hearing the voice, Ming Zhengde raised his head.

He stared at the face of his friend, his eyes flowing with golden brilliance.

The man seemed to see many souls that were similar and different, but had the same core.

Some of them shared weal and woe with him in hardship, some shared prosperity with him in wealth, some followed him in conquering the world, and some helped him live in seclusion overseas.

What did not change was that this soul had always been with him.

Just like in the first life... just like his younger sister, parents, Wang Haitian, and many more, thousands of souls, who had always been with him.

Accompanied him all the way.

- Wanting to bring them perfection.

- Only perfection was worthy of them.

Thinking this way, believing it, and putting it into practice.

Therefore, the confused man gradually regained his firmness in his eyes.

He regained his courage and determination once again.

"It's nothing."

Ming Zhengde said this, his tone with a hint of a smile: "It's just, it's all for the common people of the world... Zhuzhou and I have different Daos."

"We both wanted to persuade each other, although neither of us succeeded, at least we reached a consensus that we can act together... that's all."

At the same time.

Su Zhou came to the edge of Kyoto.

He found Sarah, who was sitting on the edge of the Kyoto city wall, in a crenel, enjoying the blowing wind.

At this time, all the remnants of Zhengyang had been taken away and handed over to the officials and constables of Kyoto Prison. The insect girl was sitting freely in her favorite place, enjoying the fresh air after the rain, as well as the vigorous vitality brought by the continuous operation of the Undying Rotation Method in her body.

This feeling was as comfortable as being in an air-conditioned room drinking a cold drink on a hot summer day.

"How do you feel? How is your cultivation going?"

As soon as Su Zhou arrived, he asked with a smile, and Sarah, hearing this, happily got up and waved happily: "Lord Judge!"

"I feel very good. This Undying Method is really not difficult to cultivate, but you need to pay attention to maintaining the speed of operation at all times. Whether it is too fast or too slow, it will cause your lifespan to flow away faster, which is a bit troublesome."

"Is that so?"

Su Zhou stretched out his hand and pressed it on Sarah's head. He sensed the circulation of spiritual energy in Sarah's body, and soon understood the current situation of the insect girl: "I see, although the power of this earth vein to draw lifespan can make the Undying Rotation Method run automatically, it cannot adjust the speed - whether the strength is insufficient or excessive, it cannot achieve the best effect."

"It seems that a set of algorithms should be built into the internal of the technique so that everyone can automatically adjust the operating speed of the Undying Method according to their own strength, so that it can become a self-operating technique in this Tianyuan world that does not require the cultivator to pay attention at all times."

This was not difficult.

Based on Sarah, Su Zhou quickly calculated the speed with the power of Myriad World Innovation and deduced a set of related algorithms.

If it were replaced by ordinary Real Persons of the same rank, it might take more than ten days to calculate and pre-perform, but not to mention the difference in calculation power, Su Zhou had more data in his grasp, so the deduction was naturally faster.

"How about this?"

Passing the revised Undying Method to Sarah again, Su Zhou asked the other party to try running it again according to the new version, and then, after Sarah's suggestions and feedback, he corrected several points that were not smooth and filled in all the bugs.

It was also fortunate that Su Zhou was watching over her nearby, and the Undying Rotation Method was also a vibrant Divine Wood technique, and Sarah was also trusting Su Zhou enough. Otherwise, just a few days of high-intensity replacement of cultivation methods and making up for the mistakes in the cultivation technique would be enough to make a cultivator suffer greatly.

But this was the process of creating a brand new cultivation technique - the ancient sages of the past used themselves as the experimental target, experimenting, trying, getting injured, and even dying again and again, which is how they built the foundation of the thousands of brilliant inheritances of the future.

- Did Shennong taste hundreds of herbs, wasn't it for the benefit of future generations?

"Well, it's already very smooth, Your Majesty, there really are no mistakes!"

And in the end, after Sarah thought for a long time, and didn't feel any bugs or discomfort, this final determined Undying Rotation Method was nearing completion.

"Not bad, that's good."

At this moment, Su Zhou retracted his hand.

He could notice that at this time, Sarah's body had already begun to be filled with a very orthodox and very pure Divine Wood energy.

The brown-haired girl closed her eyes, and on the exoskeleton shell of the insect race, layers of leaf patterns began to appear. These blue and white spiritual light patterns flashed by, but they spontaneously absorbed the surrounding heaven and earth spiritual energy, converted it into vitality, and then flowed out with some impurities and spirituality along with the suction force in the earth veins.

In this process, more refined vitality and spiritual power were left behind.

Just like plants absorb carbon dioxide and water, fix carbon and release oxygen, leaving nutrients.

This was the process of the Undying Rotation Method 'Undying Root Realm' rising towards the 'Undying Leaf Realm'.

From just being immortal oneself, to being able to bring benefits to the surrounding world.

The roots solidify the foundation, and the leaves transform the world.

Until the end, using the body as a seed, planting a flower of longevity that breathes with the world and shares the same destiny!

For a time, in Su Zhou's eyes, Sarah's image began to change - she began to change from a bee disguised as a human, to a mimetic human...

"Cordyceps? No, it's a bit like a ginseng worm..."

Muttering to himself in his heart, Su Zhou's tone became a little strange: "Strange, why? Obviously, it's cultivating the Divine Wood method, why does Sarah's aura start to have a hint of dragon-snake flavor?"

Su Zhou could see that Sarah's cultivation had reached a bottleneck at this moment. After she broke through to the Transcendent level, this insect girl would once again pupate, transform, and be reborn.

Obtain a higher talent.

From then on, she would completely change from the original 'bee-person' to a new insect race that had merged with the power of the Divine Wood!

Originally, this insect race should be called 'Wood Bee' or 'Divine Wood Bee' according to the naming method of the Divine Wood family... But to Su Zhou's surprise, the form that he predicted Sarah would transform into in the future actually had a hint of his cosmic battle form!

Exuding an obvious dragon-snake aura!

"Strange thing."
