481 Chapter 481
After framing Qin Fengqing once, he had also been beaten up. Fang ping had no interest in wasting his wealth on this matter anymore.
In the next few days, Fang ping began to try his rank-6 cultivation.
He sealed off his Sanjiao gate.
For the Sanjiao gate, what early-stage rank-6 had to seal was the vitality gate.
The stronger a martial artist’s vitality was, the harder it was to seal.
In the cultivation room.
There were three gates above Fang Ping’s head. He stared at the first gate on the left for a long time.
This door that seemed to have come from the ancient times was more accurate to say that it was closed than that it was sealed. The door actually had a door.
However, now that the door was wide open, Fang ping had to slowly close it and shut it.
And this required him to expend a large amount of energy to move.
When he was moving the door, Fang ping felt that his speed was extremely slow.
The invisible door seemed to weigh hundreds of millions of pounds.
After a Herculean effort, Fang ping only managed to move a little bit of distance. There was still a long way to go before the door closed.
“No wonder it took everyone a long time to seal the Sanjiao gate.”
Rank-6 martial artists had almost no means of speeding up their cultivation.
Of course, with sufficient vitality, he could still transport it a few more times.
Like Fang ping, when his vitality was depleted, he could continue to replenish it and move it.
Other rank-6 martial artists would need two to three hours a day to transport, but he could do it continuously. This was his advantage.
In Fang Ping’s opinion, however, it was still too slow.
Based on the current speed, it would take at least one or two years for his Sanjiao gate to be completely sealed.
“One or two years … That’s too slow!”
If outsiders knew what Fang ping was thinking, they would probably break down.
Who did not spend a lot of time and energy to seal off the Sanjiao gate? was it slow for Fang ping to take one or two years?
Other people might think it was fast, but Fang ping really thought it was slow.
In the following time, he tried to use his spiritual power and celestiality to transport it.
In the end, he realized that celestiality was quite helpful in sealing off the Sanjiao gate. The stronger the power, the easier it was to move.
“Even the consumption is huge!”
Celestiality consumed too many wealth points.
However, with 100 billion wealth in his hands, Fang ping felt that it was still acceptable, albeit barely. The faster the speed, the better.
Moreover, Fang ping had tried to use his mentality to explore the Sanjiao gate. In the end, he discovered that it was empty inside. It was just a void. No matter how much he explored, it was the same.
Fang ping was actually rather curious about the Sanjiao gate. Where did this gate … Come from?
He understood the celestial bridge. He had built it himself when he was rank-4.
However, the Sanjiao gate had indeed appeared out of thin air. It was as if it had been pulled from another space into reality.
……
Villa No. 8.
Fang ping revealed his Sanjiao gate and asked curiously,”Teacher, can we send people into the Sanjiao gate?”
Lu fengrou shook her head and said,”the Sanjiao gate exists between reality and illusion. Although it has been conjured, it’s actually not in this space-time dimension. It’s a very complicated concept.
It was even more complicated than the existence of divine weapons!
Even though divine weapons are neither real nor fake, they can actually be used as ordinary weapons. Furthermore, they’re forged with materials that exist in reality, but they’ve been blurred by our spiritual power.
“Divine weapons can enter the Sanjiao gate, as can mentality and vitality, but other objects can ‘t.”
Fang ping thought for a while and said,”as a martial artist’s strength grows stronger, the Sanjiao gate will become clearer. Teacher, when you’ve truly reached the peak, can the Sanjiao gate materialize and appear in the real world?”
“It … Shouldn’t be possible, right?”
Lu fengrou was not too sure. After some thought, she said,”If they did, then there would be an ultimate existences present. It’s impossible that no information was leaked. If they’re real, where do these three doors lead to?”
“Every martial artist, even an ordinary person, might have a Sanjiao gate. Then, do all these doors lead to one place or to different directions?”
“In addition, the Sanjiao gate is still related to the human body itself. The zone of nothingness you’re looking at might be a certain zone that exists in your body …”
Lu fengrou spoke for a while, then finally said, “There’s no need to think too much. Although one must understand what they are cultivating in martial arts, the human body is indeed a huge treasure. It also hides many secrets. Sometimes, you can only put aside things you don’t understand for the time being.”
The research on the Sanjiao gate had never stopped.
This included the study of the brain.
However, after so many years of research, there had been no substantial progress. Now, although there were still organizations researching, they did not place much importance on this. This was because they had invested countless funds, but the return was far away.
The Sanjiao gate and the brain core were only possessed by martial artists above rank-6.
These martial artists had a lot of things to do. They didn’t have much time to waste on research.
Fang ping nodded, still thinking about it. “If I could get someone to enter the Sanjiao gate, find an expert to help me push the gate open and seal it immediately, that would be awesome!”
It was difficult for him to move it, but if an expert could enter, wouldn’t it be sealed immediately?
Thinking of this, Fang Ping’s eyes suddenly lit up.”Teacher, previously, Wang Jinyang used his celestial bridge to smash someone else’s Sanjiao gate. This means that the celestial bridge can actually enter the Sanjiao gate. Why don’t you use your celestial bridge and stuff it into my Sanjiao gate, then help me push it?”
“Don’t always come up with whimsical ideas. Do you want your Sanjiao gate to explode?”Lu fengrou said unhappily. Our blood essence is different, and so is our energy attribute. Under such circumstances, once my celestial bridge comes into contact with yours, it will only cause a huge explosion!”
Fang Ping’s eyes really lit up this time. He said immediately,”You mean, as long as you and I have the same attribute … No, I mean, the source of our vitality force is the same, then your celestial bridge can enter my Sanjiao gate?”
Fang ping suddenly shook his head and mumbled,”Yes, I have to try using my celestial bridge first. I’ll stuff my celestial bridge into the door and see if it can help me push the door …
If it’s feasible …”
Fang Ping’s heart suddenly started beating violently!
If it was feasible, what did that mean?
It meant that he could get someone to help him close the door quickly!
“No, it’s impossible for someone to be of a higher rank than me. At most, only a rank-6 martial artist can.
But even so, the power of many people was still much stronger than one person.
“Moreover, I can also help others change their aura. You help me, I help you … Perhaps we can quickly pass the hurdle of rank-6!
“Can I?”
“If it’s possible, in the future, the path of rank-6 martial artists will be very fast!”
“If it’s really feasible, then the function of this system upgrade will really be a God-level function!”
“However … This is still open to discussion. I can’t tell ordinary people … Can old Wang and iron head tell me?”
Fang ping was a little uncertain. If word of this got out, it would be a really big deal!
They could help each other close their Sanjiao gate together. This almost subverted the cultivation path of martial arts, even more subverted than old man Li’s myriad DAOs as one.
Lu fengrou saw Fang ping mumbling to himself and could not help but frown. “Don’t mess around! “Fang ping, it’s indeed possible to enter the Sanjiao gate with your own celestial bridge, but power comes from one body. The vitality force you produce is supplied by the celestial bridge in the first place.
Therefore, it was the same whether the celestial bridge entered or not.
Moreover, although they are one, you must be careful not to collide with each other and cause irreversible injuries!”
“I understand, I understand …”
Fang ping nodded. This matter was indeed open to discussion.
However, with this thought in mind, Fang ping was really a little tempted.
If we gather the power of many people and close the door, the time would be shortened, right?
If one person needed a few years, what about two people?
Three people?
Or even more people?
There was strength in numbers. One person could move a millimeter at a time, but three people might be able to move ten millimeters, not three millimeters.
“If we really gather the strength of many people, I might be able to seal the door for three to five months!”
“Once the Sanjiao gate is sealed, my mentality will materialize in the instant I combine my essence and blood. I’ll be able to reach rank-7 in an instant. If I nurture my mentality for a while longer, I might even reach rank-8 …”
“Or perhaps, I should walk the path of ‘myriad DAOs as one’?”
“No, no, I don’t want to die so quickly. I have the system, so my mentality will increase very quickly. I don’t have to learn from old man Li.”
At this moment, Fang Ping’s mind was in a whirl.
He was considering whether Wang Jinyang and the rest were trustworthy.
It did not matter even if Fang ping told him about normal things.
Fang ping had nothing to hide from old Wang, who had risked his life to save him.
However, this kind of thing …
Fang Ping’s eyes flickered, and he muttered in his heart,””Actually, I’m not afraid of telling them now, but … I’m worried about them after they recover!”
Fang ping knew what he was worried about.
If old Wang and the others had not been resuscitated by experts, he probably would not have had much to worry about.
What was scary was that if these people really recovered their past memories, it would be hard to say.
Fang ping actually trusted people like Wang Jinyang and Li Hansong.
“Qin Fengqing, this fellow … His celestial bridge has also mutated, and his strength is rather formidable. But this fool … I’m worried that his celestial bridge will enter my Sanjiao gate and Rob me!”
Fang ping cursed in his heart!
It was true. He believed that Qin Fengqing would do something like that.
As soon as this guy entered the celestial bridge, he would take the stance of perishing together, and the probability of robbing him was not low.
“Should I give it a try?”
Fang ping was hesitant. This matter was indeed a little difficult for him.
The temptation of speeding up his cultivation had moved his heart.
“It’s not just our own cultivation that will speed up. If we help each other, we can all speed up after we reach rank-6.
“If I were to reach rank-7 one step ahead, I could even invite some rank-7 powerhouses to help them after they’ve entered rank-6, such as Lu fengrou … Or old man Li?
Right, what rank was old man Li?
Fang ping was a little confused. To be honest, it was indeed difficult for him to say clearly what rank old man Li was considered as a martial artist.
Level Seven or level eight?
“Fang ping!”
Lu fengrou called out, frowning slightly.”What are you thinking about?”
Fang ping came back to his senses and suppressed the agitation in his heart. He smiled and said,”Teacher, I’m thinking about the Tiannan catacombs …”
“This has nothing to do with you. You’re not allowed to go this time!”
Lu fengrou frowned and said,”once the catacombs opens this time, there will be a large-scale high-ranked battle. Although you’ve stepped into rank-6, you’re still a little off.” “Right now, Tiannan has already started to make evacuation arrangements. When the catacombs really opens, other than high-ranked martial artists, those below high-ranked will not stay.”
This time, Tiannan was also prepared to be rushed out.
As of now, Tiannan had already begun a large-scale evacuation.
The propaganda was that Grandmaster powerhouses felt the fluctuations of the earth and might soon have an earthquake.
Two years ago, Tiannan had evacuated, and a large earthquake had occurred.
This time, with the government’s publicity, the people were very cooperative.
After all, in their eyes, Grandmaster powerhouses were omnipotent. They could fly in the sky and burrow underground. If there was an earthquake, it was very likely that it would happen. No one was willing to joke around with their lives.
Fang ping laughed.”Of course I’m not stupid enough to rush over and fight with the high ranks at the first opportunity. I’m thinking of waiting until things have calmed down a little before I go.”
Seeing that Lu fengrou was about to continue, Fang ping said softly,”This time, we’re not going for resources, but to return a favor. “I owe Wang Jinyang quite a big favor. During the battle on New Year’s Eve, he was an early-stage rank-5 and helped me block a peak rank-6 martial artist.
“Teacher, all martial artists know how to repay a debt of gratitude. I’ve promised him that we’ll go to the South to find his teacher.
Since I’ve made a promise, I won’t go back on it.
Therefore, I must go to the heavenly South Region. “
Lu fengrou furrowed her brows slightly. After a moment, she said, “We’ll have to wait for the catacombs to calm down first. Also…Zhang Qingnan’s chances of survival are extremely low, or rather, almost impossible.
It wasn’t just a few days. It had been almost two years since the last time it was sealed.
“Even rank-7 martial artists would find it hard to survive after such a long time …”
At this point, Lu fengrou thought of her father.
His father had disappeared for two years.
Was he still alive?
Lu fengrou did not think too much about this. She continued,”This time, Wang Jinyang went down to the catacombs mainly for psychological comfort. If you really want to go down, don’t make finding someone your first priority. The key is to protect your own life.”
“Understood!”
Fang ping nodded and said immediately,”Oh right, who’s going to mcmau this time?” Are you going over?”
“Yes, Wu kuishan, Lion Tang, come with me.”
“Li Changsheng still wants to go? this old thing, does he think he’s not going to die fast enough?” Lu fengrou scoffed.
Fang ping asked softly,”instructor li, will you lose a lot of vitality if you go all out in a battle?”
Lu fengrou’s expression was grave. She nodded and said, “Let’s put it this way … Although we don’t know how long a rank-8 martial artist can live, according to our conjectures … In fact, rank-8 martial artists still have a rough idea of how long they can live.
I can’t say for sure, but I won’t die in three hundred years.
Li Changsheng’s current rate of life loss was more than 30 times faster than a typical rank-8!
Once he engaged in battle, the speed at which his vitality was flowing away would be at least a hundred or a thousand times faster than that of an ordinary rank-8!
After one battle, you might lose decades of life. If you really fight eight to ten times, you might age prematurely and face death. “
“Is there no way to stop the loss of life force?”
“No, at least we don’t know for now. After all, the unification of ten thousand DAOs is only recorded in ancient books, and it’s not clear. However, Wu kuishan was right. Life essence can be used to replenish this kind of loss. “
Lu fengrou looked at Fang ping and said, “I’m not asking you to steal the life essence, but to tell you not to go! “If you get your hands on the life essence, not to mention your own safety, with this, li Changsheng will have no more worries. This old thing can’t wait to kill a few rank-8s right away to show off his presence. It’d be a waste to give it to him.”
“Can instructor li really cut down a rank-8?”
“…Yes!”
Lu fengrou paused and said softly,”definitely!” He had been adapting to the changes over the past few days. His vitality was very strong! Back then, he had consumed too much life essence, and his vitality force had skyrocketed. It was comparable to a peak rank-8’s vitality force and was close to the 100000 mark!
He was bragging when he said that he was going all out to unleash 10000-C celestiality. However, there was still hope for him to unleash 2000 – 3000-C celestiality if he were to go all out.
With a rank-9 divine weapon in hand, Wu kuishan’s explosive power might not be comparable to his.
Wu kuishan killed some rank-8 martial artists. As long as the other party did not have a divine weapon and did not hone many skulls, it was easy to kill them.
If he can, then li Changsheng can. “
“Teacher li, if you have a divine weapon, can you nurture it? If we give him a rank-9 magic longsword, will he be even stronger?”
Lu fengrou said again,”he can use a divine weapon. Right now, he’s at the Sanjiao gate, using his body to nurture his sword.” However … It’s best not to give him a divine weapon. The more power he displays, the faster his life will flow away.
“If he’s given a rank-9 magic weapon, he’ll dare to fight a rank-9. By then, the battle will be over. Even if he kills the other party, he’ll be exhausted to death.”
Fang Ping’s pupils shrank, and he said softly,”instructor li has a rank-9 divine weapon. Can he really kill a rank-9?”
“It depends on the opponent’s strength. I’m talking about the weakest rank-9, the kind with no magic weapon and average strength. He has a rank-9 magic weapon, so the probability of killing the opponent is not low.”
“So strong!”
Fang ping took a deep breath. A myriad DAOs as one had really allowed old man Li to claim first place among rank-8?
It should be known that even Wu kuishan, the second rank-8 in the world, might not be able to kill a weak rank-9. Defeating … There was a chance.
“It’s strong to exchange life for combat power, but what’s the use of being strong for such a one-time consumable? It would be a waste to give it to him, but …”
As Lu fengrou spoke, she sighed softly,”this is actually a method that only geniuses have. People like us can’t do it even if we wanted to.” “Otherwise, if it were to be popularized, a group of old grandmasters would probably be willing to exchange their lives for combat power.”
The unification of ten thousand DAOs could not be popularized.
If not for that, the grandmasters who had died before would have done it long ago.
These grandmasters had a clear memory of this kind of “myriad DAOs as one” recorded in ancient books, which was only a few words. In fact, there had been rank-8 old grandmasters who had tried it before, but it had not worked.
The unification of ten thousand DAOs could only be carried out at the stage when one’s spiritual power had just materialized.
Fang ping … Fang ping suspected that even he could not do it. His mentality might be materialized in advance, but his golden body might not reach the standard.
After chatting with Lu fengrou for a while, Fang ping walked out of Villa No. 8.
As he walked out of the villa, Fang ping thought of the partnership that had sealed the door.
“Do you want to say it or not!”
“I’m so conflicted!”
Fang ping sighed. Perhaps he could try it out with old Wang first.
If it was really effective and the effect was not bad, then he would consider whether to pull others in.
