Immortal shade is expanding, and this was noticed millions of years ago.
It is unknown who discovered it first, as there are no relevant records.
It's just that the speed of Immortal Shadow's expansion was extremely slow at first, so slow that it was difficult to detect, and so slow that even the few who noticed it could hardly feel a sense of crisis.
This is like someone telling Li Xiuchang in a previous life that the earth will be destroyed in five billion years.
He only said "Oh" and cursed in his mind: What the hell did you do to me!
It wasn't until someone discovered that the expansion speed of Immortal Shadow was steadily increasing slightly, that some responsible Righteous Path monks paid attention to it.
Because this seemingly slow expansion rate, once accumulated, will be very alarming, like a snowball. If this trend continues, sooner or later the expansion rate of Xianyin will be so fast that people will have no time to react.
Immortal shade covering the entire world of immortality is not something that is out of reach.
If you wait until everyone can see the crisis and then think of ways to deal with it, it will be too late.
The top leaders of the major Righteous Path forces are all knowledgeable people, not short-sighted people. The expansion of the Immortal Shade Realm has been a worry for the top monks of Righteous Path for millions of years.
They have been trying to find ways to solve this hidden danger, and many people have even paid their lives for it.
However, there are still generations of predecessors who have stepped forward and never given up on the exploration of Immortal Shadow, and this is still the case today.
Li Xiuchang fell into a brief silence after listening to Senior Brother Lu Yang's introduction.
I admire generations of Righteous Path predecessors who risked their lives to explore Fairy Shadow, and only for the feats of the descendants of Fukuzawa.
The seemingly peaceful world of immortality has always been shrouded in the crisis of world destruction.
Once the Immortal Shadow covers the entire world of immortality, it will truly become an apocalyptic world of immortality, and only a very small number of people will survive.
The surviving monks should be like the survivors in doomsday novels, go out carefully in search of resources, and avoid all kinds of horrors in the Immortal Shadow like zombies.
Li Xiuchang asked, "After millions of years of hard work, have the seniors ever discovered anything in the Immortal Shadow?"
Lu Yang shook his head. "The major Righteous Path forces know more and more about Immortal Yin, but there is currently no clue about how to prevent the expansion of Immortal Yin. Of course, it does not mean that these millions of years of exploration are worthless. If there is any discovery in the future, it will be based on the experience accumulated over millions of years."
Li Xiuchang admires him in his heart, but this is really not something he can worry about at the moment. With his Cultivation Level strength, even if he wants to contribute a little, he can't do it.
His current thinking is more inclined to have a tall man hold up the sky if it falls.
When he becomes the boss of Tribulation Crossing Stage or even Mahayana Stage in the future, he will help if he can, but it is too early to say this now.
Immortal Yin will not be able to expand to the entire world of immortality in a thousand or a hundred years. Maybe he will not see that day until he ascends Upper Realm.
Just listen to Senior Brother Lu Yang continue, "However, millions of years of hard work have not yielded results. Now Four Great Immortal Sects many top powerhouses have given up on finding answers from the Immortal Yin, but want to find another way and seek other solutions."
"What method?"
Li Xiuchang I can't think of any other solutions.
If you want to stop the expansion of Xianyin, it is obvious that you can only find opportunities within Xianyin. At least you must understand what Xianyin is.
But sometimes even if you know the answer, you may not be able to change anything. When manpower is limited.
In the previous life, if humans were faced with the imminent destruction of the sun, what would they do?
Human beings cannot prevent the end of the world. The only thing they can do may be to vigorously develop technology and try to leave the earth and find a new habitat.
So where can people from the Immortal Shade Realm run?
Li Xiuchang thought of this and heard Senior Brother Lu Yang reply, "Some people are trying to find a way to other worlds and want to use other worlds as a retreat."
"There are other worlds?"
Senior Brother Lu Yang nodded affirmatively and said firmly, "Yes!"
"This world is far more wonderful than you imagine. If you have the chance, I might take you to see it."
Li Xiuchang couldn't help but widen his eyes. Looking at Senior Brother Lu Yang's tone, it seemed as if he had been to other worlds.
Today's exchange with Senior Brother Lu Yang directly overturned Li Xiuchang's understanding of the Immortal Shade Realm.
"Senior brother, have you ever seen the scenery of other worlds?" he asked expectantly.
Senior Brother Lu Yang paused and did not answer the question. Instead, he looked outside the door, seeming to be thinking about something.
After a while, he said, "You can come back tomorrow. I have something else to do today."
Li Xiuchang noticed that Senior Brother Lu Yang seemed to be worried, and it was difficult to ask further questions. However, before leaving, he still reminded him as if he had no intention of doing so:
"I heard that Senior Brother Chu Ya plans to ask the ancestor Chu Family to take action to capture the mysterious person who attacked him."
Senior Brother Lu Yang nodded to show that he already knew, and said, "Come early tomorrow and bring some brewing materials."
Li Xiuchang nodded in agreement and said goodbye to Senior Brother Lu Yang.
Back at his residence, Li Xiuchang was still recalling the content of his exchange with Senior Brother Lu Yang.
He couldn't help but guess whether the neighboring brothers gathered at the Immortal Dust Sect were also making some kind of effort to solve the crisis in Xianyin.
It is currently known that the purpose of the brothers gathering at the Immortal Dust Sect has something to do with Immortal Yin.
Although he doesn't understand what the relationship between Xianyin and Immortal Dust Sect is.
"If it is to solve the Immortal Shadow crisis, brothers don't have to hide their identities, right? After all, this is something that Four Great Immortal Sects will cooperate with."
Li Xiuchang feels that today's exchange with Senior Brother Lu Yang has taken another big step towards the truth, but many new questions have arisen.
I just hope that I can go to Senior Brother Lu Yang tomorrow and get some answers.
"It would be great if Senior Brother Gui was here. If I asked him, he would definitely tell me everything."
What Li Xiuchang didn't know was that as soon as he left, several people gathered in Lu Yang's room.
Zhang Wanzhi, Chen Changsheng, Mo Tu are all here.
Chen Changsheng said directly, "It's too early to tell him this now. You've talked a little too much."
Mo Tu also nodded. "You can take it slow."
Lu Yang saw the three people surrounding him as if to accuse him, and just smiled gently. He was not good at and did not like arguing with others.
Lu Yang took out a jar of wine and poured a glass for all three of them. He knew that the three of them came to investigate the crime incidentally, and they mainly came to drink.
At this moment, a pretty girl in a yellow skirt walked in. Her mouth was full of vitriol and menacing, like an old hen protecting her young:
"You three are bullying my husband-in-law while I'm away, aren't you? Of course my husband-in-law has his own plans for what he says and does. After thousands of years of friendship, you still question him?"
Zhang Wanzhi complained, "This is none of my business. I think I have to tell Xiuchang sooner or later. It doesn't make much difference if I tell you sooner or later. I'm just here to have a drink."
Mo Tu drank with his head lowered and remained silent.
Chen Changsheng exerted his moral integrity, took the initiative to give in, and said with a smile, "We just came here to discuss it, why should we bully you? Fairy Xia came just in time to discuss it together."
Xia Siyun sat carelessly at the table, complaining. "This outfit is really putting me off."
As he spoke and waved his hand, even his face and clothes changed. His face looked much more mature, and the childishness of a girl was gone, replaced by the charm of a mature woman.
The yellow skirt on her body turned into a bright red skirt, and her whole body was like a blooming rose.
Compared with her previous girlish appearance, Xia Siyun's current dress brings out her temperament even more, and Charm Value's look has doubled several times.
Every time Zhang Wanzhi and the three of them see Xia Siyun like this, they will have the same emotion in their hearts: The cook is so lucky!
But she saw Xia Siyun half-snuggling into Lu Yang's arms without hesitation, and Lu Yang also hugged her waist lovingly.
Zhang Wanzhi The three of them were fed a mouthful of dog food without any precautions. They secretly cursed "dog men and women" in their hearts and looked away one after another.
Chen Changsheng coughed. "Fellow Daoists, let's discuss it first. Should we tell Li Xiuchang the information about other worlds?"
Zhang Wanzhi raised his head and looked at the ceiling. He just didn't want to see the intimate couple in front of him and said, "Didn't the cook tell Xiuchang already? He also said that he would take him to see him. If you don't have time, I will take him."
Mo Tu didn't say much, just a few words: "It's too early."
Xia Siyun's eyes widened, and he said impatiently, "What's there to discuss? Since you all said that you need him to break the situation in the future, don't you have to tell him many things sooner or later? I'm only revealing a small part of them now, just to worry about this and that.
"Speaking of which, you guys have known him longer than me. I've only met him once, and I'm not worried. You grown men are still treating your mother-in-law!"
Chen Changsheng shook his head. "It's not that we don't trust Xiuchang, it's just that his cultivation is still shallow after all, and it's not good for him to know some things too early."
Speaking of this, Xia Siyun suddenly wondered, "What Cultivation Level is he?"
"Have no idea. "Zhang Wanzhi The three of them shook their heads.
"You all don't know what he does Body Cultivator? Then why do you think he Cultivation Level is shallow?"
Zhang Wanzhi explained, "The exercises that Xiuchang is currently majoring in were created by the three of us. Previously, we only gave him the exercises of the Foundation Establishment Realm and Golden Core Stage. He hasn't asked us for the exercises of the Nascent Soul Realm yet, so he must not have gotten Nascent Soul Realm."
Chen Changsheng also analyzed. "It hasn't been a few years, and it has only been less than five years since he started practicing. He should still be Golden Core Stage, but before that he had worked with more than ten golden elixirs and two Nascent Soul Under siege, he counter-killed one Nascent Soul demon cultivator and forced another Nascent Soul demon cultivator Nascent Soul to escape from his body, so his combat power should have reached the Nascent Soul level."
Hearing this, the couple Lu Yang and Xia Siyun both looked shocked.
Among everyone present, the couple knew the least about Li Xiuchang.
In less than five years, the golden elixir Cultivation Level, Nascent Soul has the combat power, and has the record of killing the Nascent Soul demon cultivator... What kind of monster is this!
"How many elixirs did you guys feed him? "Xia Siyun said suspiciously.
It's really Li Xiuchang's growth rate that's so amazing, faster than even a magic cultivator.
Zhang Wanzhi shook his head and said, "You may not believe it when I tell you. Although we have provided him with a lot of help, in terms of cultivation, he relies more on his own efforts."
Chen Changsheng also confirmed. "We are just giving him some Cultivation Techniques and Secret Arts to guide him in various skills, but we cannot practice on his behalf."
Lu Yang said softly, "Since he is cultivating so quickly, it is even more important to tell him some things early so that he can be mentally prepared early. You always think of waiting for him to grow up before telling him everything. Maybe he will grow up in the blink of an eye. If you tell him a lot at once, he may not be able to accept it.
"And even if we don't tell him, he's now starting to investigate on his own. Instead of finding any clues on his own, it's better for us to be honest and can build more trust."
"What my husband-in-law said makes sense." Xia Siyun supported his husband-in-law unconditionally, "Li Xiuchang can have Nascent Soul level combat power. In fact, he is not weak anymore. In some worlds below, he is already a top powerhouse. You can definitely take him to the lower world to see."
Several people discussed it for a while and finally came to an agreement.
"I'll come and talk to him tomorrow. I'll tell him what I can tell him first. We'll talk about who will take him to the lower world later." Lu Yang said.
Chen Changsheng said, "You two have just returned from another world. I definitely can't let you go."
Zhang Wanzhi said, "Leave it to me. I just want to go out and walk around."
"You? I'm not worried." Chen Changsheng said directly.
"Then let Old Mo accompany me." Zhang Wanzhi was not angry either, and poked Mo Tu with his elbow.
"Okay." Mo Tu agreed without expression.
Xia Siyun hugged his husband's arm like a koala and asked lazily, "You all say that Li Xiuchang is the key to breaking the game. How did he break the game?"
"You have to ask Gui Duba about this, but it's a pity that he's not here." Zhang Wanzhi shrugged.
Lu Yang said warmly, "Since it was said by fellow Daoist Gui, it shouldn't be false, and there is no need to repeatedly verify it."
"My husband is right. Although Gui Big Mouth's words are unreliable, he has not made any mistakes in fortune-telling. His absence means that he is not needed for the time being. When he is needed, he will naturally appear."
You two are really a couple...Chen Changsheng changed the subject and said, "What did the two fellow Daoists gain from going to another world this time?"
"This time it was really dangerous. I almost couldn't find my way back..."
With some expectations, Li Xiuchang visited Senior Brother Lu Yang early the next morning.
"Senior brother, these are the brewing ingredients I just bought this morning."
Li Xiuchang took out a pile of miscellaneous raw materials and put them on the table.
Senior Brother Lu Yang nodded slightly, walked to the table, and suddenly asked, "Xiuchang, how much do you know about this world? In other words, what do you think the world is like?"
Li Xiuchang thought about it and realized that Immortal Shade Realm's world was different from the world he lived in in his previous life. It was not a planet. He replied:
"The entire Immortal Shade Realm is probably a bowl of soup, and the continent under our feet is a piece of cake floating on the soup."
Senior Brother Lu Yang couldn't help but smile, "The answer is very consistent with our identity Spirit Chef, it's very interesting."
Having said this, he picked up an ear of wheat from the brewing materials brought by Li Xiuchang, and then let go, and the ear of wheat floated in the air.
"Suppose, this ear of wheat is the Immortal Shade Realm we are in."
Then, he picked up another ear of wheat and placed it on top of the ear of wheat that symbolized Immortal Shade Realm.
"The ear of wheat above represents the Upper Realm that we ascended to after becoming immortals."
"This constitutes the world that most of us monks know. We think that there are only two realms in this world."
"But I told you yesterday that there are actually other worlds."
Lu Yang grabbed a few wheat ears, threw them under the wheat ears symbolizing Immortal Shade Realm, and divided them into several rows.
"Actually, there are several layers of worlds below us."
Li Xiuchang struggled to digest this information and asked in surprise, "So, we are also Upper Realm from other worlds?"
"Yes, in fact, occasionally there are some ascendants from the lower realm who ascend to the Immortal Shade Realm, but most of them are controlled by Four Great Immortal Sects. Occasionally, some who escape by chance do not dare to reveal their identities as ascendants."
Li Xiuchang chi asked, "Are those ascendants immortals?"
Lu Yang shook his head. "Their Cultivation Level, from our point of view, should be in the early stage of Hedao."
Lu Yang's words once again subverted Li Xiuchang's perception.
In Li Xiuchang's impression, ascension is an extremely glorious thing, the result of hundreds of thousands of years of practice. It is like studying hard for more than ten years in Hanchuang, and being named on the gold list is a reward for the hard work in the past years.
But now the ascension coming out of Senior Brother Lu Yang's mouth doesn't seem to be that way.
Ascending up is actually nothing more than changing to a different world, and you may also be caught and studied by the "locals".
Moreover, the so-called ascended ones did not become immortals, they were just Dao Integration Stage.
Of course, this does not mean that Dao Integration Stage is weak, but compared to monks such as Void Refinement Stage and Nascent Soul Stage, Dao Integration Stage does not have an insurmountable qualitative change like between immortals and monks, and there is no "distance between immortals and mortals".
But for the ascendant in the lower realm, at the moment of ascending, he must have thought that he had become an immortal, right?
Li Xiuchang couldn't help but wonder, if one day he ascends to immortality, will he really become an immortal?
Is it possible that the immortality he thought was just a state similar to "Dao Integration Stage" in the eyes of the Upper Realm people?
Li Xiuchang swallowed hard, thought of something, and asked hesitantly, "Then our Upper Realm will also treat us like this, treating us as strangers who have ascended to the lower world. Also, since we have many lower worlds, is there more than one Upper Realm?"
"You guessed it right." Lu Yang said after considering it, "In the words of our cooks, the entire big world should be like a layer-by-layer steamer. Each layer of cages has several worlds, arranged layer by layer from top to bottom. We are only on one of them, but it is neither the top nor the bottom."
"The monks in each level of Steamed Basket World are trying their best to ascend to the higher level of Steamed Basket World, but what is the world like in the steamer on the upper level? Are ascendants from the lower world welcome? These are all unknowns."
"As I said, each level of steamer has more than one world, and the situation in each world is different. Some are prosperous, some are dilapidated, some are friendly, and some are dangerous."
"Of course, it is not easy to travel between these worlds. Generally speaking, the easiest way is to go to the Upper Realm. As long as Cultivation Level reaches its peak, you can go to the Upper Realm by ascension."
"But if you want to go to the lower realm, it will be more troublesome. You need to find a passage to the lower realm, but we happen to know a few places."
