Chapter 791 789-Wind
The two kings of the catacombs were discussing.
At the same time, Fang ping and the Wargod had once again set foot on the Imperial sea Mountain, preparing to return to Earth.
……
At the same time.
Magic City catacombs, underground passageway Hall.
Zhang Tao, Li Zhen, Nan yunyue, and a few mcmau powerhouses all rushed over.
Zhang Tao had come to Magic City to suppress the catacombs, and at the same time, he had brought Wu kuishan back.
At that moment, in the spacious hall, Wu kuishan was floating in the air, but the aura on his body was getting stronger and stronger.
At the side, Lu fengrou’s face was full of worry and apprehension. She looked at Zhang Tao several times.
Although Zhang Tao didn’t look at her, he knew what she was thinking. He smiled and said,””Don’t worry, I think I’m about to wake up!”
It had been almost a month since Wu kuishan fell into a coma.
After such a long time, Wu kuishan had finally digested true king profound Jade’s origin Dao and was about to wake up.
After Zhang Tao finished speaking, Li Zhen glanced at him. Seeing that Zhang Tao’s white beard was an eyesore, he felt extremely awkward. He couldn’t hold it in and shouted,”Pull out my beard!”
He really felt uncomfortable looking at her. An absolute beginning stage expert who was not even 100 years old was really considered a young man.
Compared to the Heavenly King, Zhang Tao couldn’t be any younger.
It was fine in the past. This guy maintained the appearance of a middle-aged man with black hair and no beard, which was not a big deal.
However, after not seeing him for a few days … This guy actually grew a long white beard. Li Zhen even suspected that Zhang Tao had a problem with his head!
Zhang Tao stroked his beard with a smile on his face and replied,””If you like it, you can also grow a beard! I’m almost a hundred years old, what’s wrong with growing a beard? Do you have an opinion?”
“You …”
Li Zhen was infuriated. To the side, Nanyun Yue glanced at the two of them and couldn’t be bothered with them. She spoke, “How’s Wu kuishan’s origin Dao after he woke up this time?”
As soon as he said that, many people from mcmau looked over.
“I’m thinking about a problem right now!”Zhang Tao said with a smile, unhurried.
“What?”
“It’s time to divide the essence Dao!”
Zhang Tao chuckled.”In the past, there weren’t many rank-9s. There weren’t many origin path martial artists either. We didn’t have much contact with them. At that time, everyone was too lazy to make any division, as there was no need for that.
“But now, with more contact, powerhouses keep emerging. It’s time to make a quantitative standard.”
The classification of martial Dao was only formed when there were more people.
The classification of ranks was not just to highlight the gap between ranks, but also to let the martial artist have a clear understanding of themselves.
Vitality used cards, mentality used ‘he’, destructive power used ‘origin’, and martial arts rank-9 …
These distinctions were all to quantify martial artists and let martial artists have a better understanding of themselves.
Take energy stones for example. In the past, cultivation-based energy stones and non-cultivation-based energy stones were used to differentiate them. In the later stages, as more and more energy stones were used, the nine grades were also used.
Hearing Zhang Tao’s words, Nan yunyue and Li Zhen didn’t feel that he was making a mountain out of a molehill.
The division of martial arts ranks was also to give martial artists some expectations.
It was a General Division of the origin Dao. Above the origin Dao was the peak. To 99% of the origin Dao experts, this was a goal that they could only dream of.
Li Zhen couldn’t care less about his beard at this time. He slowly said,”How do you intend to differentiate? “In fact, it’s very difficult for us to observe how far you’ve progressed in the origin Dao. Under normal circumstances, it’s the martial artist who measures it. Even the martial artist himself is not very clear about it.”
Zhang Tao smiled faintly.”This is a simple question. The martial artist may not know how far he has walked in the origin Dao. “However, martial artists still know how much power they can unleash and how much they can increase their power. This is a quantitative standard.”
“Let’s take the most top-notch non-Paragon rank-9 as an example. Their own vitality can reach up to 150000 Cal. They’ve reached the peak of the origin path but not to the point of 1. If we calculate it based on a one-time increase, they can erupt with close to 30000Cal vitality.
300,000 Cal of vitality. This was the top-tier non-Paragon powerhouse!
“Actually, I think that when measuring a martial artist’s rank, we should also look at their explosive power, not their own upper limit.
“If it’s a top rank-9, the upper limit can reach 30000Cal. However, it’s very likely that he won’t be able to achieve such an explosive force …”
“Then do you think we should use combat power as the standard?”
“Not bad.”
“……”
As the few of them chatted, old man Li rolled his eyes at the side. He glanced at Wu kuishan, whose aura was still growing. He could not help but say,”Ministers, we’re not in a hurry to talk about this, are we? How’s old Wu’s condition now?”
It was indeed necessary to divide martial arts in detail.
However, at this time, Wu kuishan was still recovering. It was not good to talk about this, right?
Zhang Tao glanced at him and chuckled,””What’s the hurry? Wu kuishan was fine. It was a good thing that he was awake. He would just wait a little longer! “Li Changsheng, I’m talking about something important right now. Once the standards are set, you might be able to enter the rank-9 ranking list.”
“For a weak rank-9, we usually start with 100000 Cal of vitality without any strength increment. “Some weaker rank-9s have poor control over their own bodies. The vitality outburst might only be 50000 to 60000 Cal.
“In the future, if the grading standard is set, these weak rank-9s might be eliminated.
Fall from the rank-9 ranking list!”
Zhang Tao laughed again.”Of course. Comprehending the origin Dao is indeed a symbol of a rank-9. It’s not good to be eliminated just like that.” Thus, they would need to discuss how to determine whether a rank-8 golden body was high-refined or a rank-9.
“This matter is still rather important. Why are we dividing the bone-honing of the three lower ranks into rank-3 rank-12?
It was to allow martial artists to take one step at a time, have a small goal, and move towards that small goal.
“If we divide the three lower ranks into the same rank now, then the duration of bone-honing will be too long. At this time, everyone will be in the same rank, and they will lack motivation …”
“Minister, do you need to explain this to me?”
Old man Li was speechless. I’m not a primary school student. Do I need you to teach me step by step?
“He’s not saying that we can’t divide the ranks in detail, but he’s reminding you that Wu kuishan’s priority now. What’s old Zhang thinking?
Zhang Tao chuckled and didn’t mind. He decided to put this matter aside for now.
He only remembered this when Nan yunyue mentioned Wu kuishan’s matter.
He couldn’t always use the fact that he had lost a fraction of his origin Dao to describe an origin Dao expert, right?
The Dao of origin was a long process as well. Those who reached the peak would always be walking for a few hundred years or even a thousand years.
This process was too long, and a clear quantitative standard was indeed needed.
They did not continue on this topic. Seeing that everyone was paying attention to Wu kuishan, Zhang Tao looked at him for a while and said,”Now that I’ve woken up, I should be able to enter the top ten rank-9.
Although he hasn’t become a Paragon, but … He should be about the same as Wu Chuan. “
“Just like this?”
At this moment, old man Li said, somewhat surprised.
Zhang Tao and the other two suddenly looked at him in unison!
What did that mean?
Just like this?
It’s good that Wu Chuan isn’t here, or else he’d beat you to death!
The three departments and four prefectures had seven leaders and five of them were at the peak. Zhang Weiyu, who was in sixth place, was about to reach the peak. If Zhang Weiyu reached the peak, Wu Chuan would be the first person below the peak!
Of course, this was the ranking of China, and the ranking might not be accurate.
Wu Chuan should be slightly weaker than Zhao xingwu, not much different from Kong Lingyuan and Chen yaozu.
But no matter what, he was still a top level nine expert.
In the end, li Changsheng said,”that’s it.” At this moment, Zhang Tao was a little stunned. Were the guys from mcmau all so arrogant now?
When li Changsheng saw them looking at him, he coughed lightly and laughed drily.”What I mean is … Senior brother Wu … His battle strength … Cough, cough, just like that. Old Wu devoured a true king expert’s Dao of origin and ended up in this state when he woke up … I feel like I’ve suffered a loss. “
He had thought that Wu kuishan would have Zhang Weiyu’s abilities, but now it was Wu Chuan.
In the eyes of Fang ping and the others, old Wu was a disgrace.
Among the seven leaders of the three ministries and four constabularies, Fang ping and old man Li did not consider Wu Chuan to be the same as those few.
It was all because old Wu had embarrassed herself when she had participated in the ranking for the first time.
When the global ranking was released, the other six leaders of the three ministries and four prefectures were almost all in the top 20. However, when it came to Wu Chuan … He dropped to around 90 with a whoosh.
The difference was huge!
“Besides, the others all have rank-9 magic weapons. Wu Chuan didn’t have any back then.
It could be said that Wu Chuan was the leader who had the worst of it all.
Fang ping even suspected that the house of guardians in the South was raised by his stepmother. Why was it so tragic?
Fang ping was not here at the moment. If he was here, he would probably be surprised after hearing that Wu kuishan had regained consciousness, probably just like Wu Chuan. He was so weak?
That shouldn’t be the case!
Zhang Tao was a little speechless. After a while, he said,”Is Wu Chuan that embarrassing? That guy is your senior brother, and you look down on him?”
Old man Li laughed dryly. ‘Don’t say that. I’m not looking down on you.’
He, Huang Jing, and Wu Chuan were all true senior and junior brothers.
They were all students that the former principal had brought up.
Some of the others were dead, some were disabled, and even now, Huang Jing was dead. The old Vice-Chancellor’s direct descendants were actually only him and Wu Chuan. Qin Fengqing was considered to be a generation away, but in terms of relationship, he was closer than the others.
However, after so many years, old man Li had never felt that Wu Chuan was that strong, even if he was rank-6 back then and Wu Chuan was already rank-9.
At the thought of this, old man Li suddenly asked curiously,”Senior apprentice-brother Wu, how far have you walked in your Dao of origin? I’m not too sure about that, but his previous combat strength didn’t seem to be … Very powerful. I think he’s a little weaker than Guardian Zhang and Minister Nan before they made a breakthrough. “
Previously, when Wu Chuan participated in the battle in the Magic City catacombs, although he was also very strong, even stronger than Wu kuishan, there was a limit to his strength. Old man Li did not feel that he had the aura of a top-tier rank-9 like Zhang Weiyu and the rest.
At the side, Li Zhen smiled and said,””Wu Chuan didn’t walk too far on the origin path. According to Zhang Tao’s 1000 meters, Wu Chuan walked about 600 to 700 meters.
However, Wu Chuan is much younger than us. He’s improved very quickly in the past two years.
“After returning from Magic city’s catacombs this time, I think his strength will still grow a little. He might even improve further …”
Old man Li thought for a while and said,”I’ve always been curious about something. How did you let senior brother Wu become The Guardian of the South?” Back then, he became the South Guardian right after he entered rank-9. There are many more suitable candidates than him, right?”
Nan yunyue shot a glance at Zhang Tao and said indifferently,””You can ask Zhang Tao about this!”
Zhang Tao sneered and said indifferently,””What’s so strange about that? when The Guardian of the South fell, someone was needed to take over. I’m not interested in Wu Chuan, but your teacher.
“Although your instructor was rank-8 at the time, he had been at peak rank-8 for many years. In fact, he had also comprehended his own origin Dao.
“What I mean is that the government should think of a way to gather a batch of resources to help him heal his injuries and let him advance to rank-9 …
However, as you know, the government’s resources were limited at that time. They were all extremely precious resources, and your teacher was unwilling to waste them.
“He also rejected the position of Guardian of the South. However, he recommended Wu Chuan. Your teacher is one of the top grandmasters in the South. His students are all over the South.
“At that time, out of the 14 Governors-General in the South, 4 of them were from mcmau. Mcmau was the number one university in the South, and the military department had many mcmau students …
Considering this, Wu Chuan would be able to lead the entire South if he became The Guardian of the South.
“With your teacher holding the fort, we don’t have to worry about anyone being unconvinced. That’s why Wu Chuan achieved rank-9 and became The Guardian of the South.”
This was the first time old man Li had heard of these secrets. He said with some regret,”So, teacher had a chance to recover back then?”
“There are.”
Zhang Tao shook his head and said,”but your teacher has been fighting for many years. His imperishable substance has long been exhausted. His golden body has also been severely damaged. He was in a huge deficit back then. If he wanted to recover … If it were now, it would not be difficult. He could get Fang ping to provide him with a thousand-Yuan imperishable substance and he would be as lively as a Dragon and a Tiger.
However, at that time, we had just reached the Paragon level. I mentioned helping him recover, but he didn’t agree.
“At that time, that fellow said that we have to defend Mount Royal sea. We can’t waste our energy for him in case the catacombs powerhouses launch a surprise attack …
He was actually exhausted after dragging it out. The battle in Shanghai was also the last battle he chose. “
Old man Li nodded slightly and did not say anything else.
At that time, his teacher was indeed an arrow at the end of its flight and was already somewhat unwilling to continue living. Otherwise, he could have dragged on further.
There were many reasons why his teacher did not participate in that battle.
But he still went!
Old man Li did not dwell on this. He continued to look at Wu kuishan. At this moment, Wu kuishan’s aura was even stronger.
In the void, a great Dao was faintly visible.
Old man Li looked at it for a while, then said again,”In that case, if old Wu were to recover this time, he would have only walked six to seven hundred meters in the origin Dao?”
Zhang Tao nodded.”Almost. Maybe a little longer.”
In fact, if Wu kuishan used profound Jade true King’s Dao to replace his own Dao, then even if he did not reach the peak, the gap would not be too big.
However, Wu kuishan did not accept all of true king profound Jade’s origin path.
Furthermore, he was using his opponent’s Dao to nurture his own Dao, which consumed a lot of energy.
Up until now, Wu kuishan had walked six to seven hundred meters on his own path, and profound Jade true King’s path was about the same.
A dual Dao expert!
𝗈𝓥𝐥xt.𝕔𝚘𝑀
If Wu kuishan used it well, he should be stronger than Wu Chuan. But he might not be as strong as Zhang Weiyu.
“Just wait a little longer, I’m almost awake!”
Zhang Tao said and didn’t say anything else.
Everyone began to wait in silence.
……
Just as Wu kuishan was about to wake up, Fang ping and the others had already left Magic city’s catacombs. Warlord sped all the way, rushing toward West Mountain’s catacombs at high speed.
While running, Zhan Wang asked,””How was your trip to the precinct? Did you find the reinforcements? Oh right, how did you meet Lu Zhen? “Didn’t lu Zhen say that he went missing in Magic city’s catacombs? In that case, have we entered the world?”
The Wargod had a lot of questions. Before Fang ping could reply, Lu Zhen said hurriedly,”Senior, I’ve indeed stayed in the precinct for several years. That’s right, evil …”
He was about to speak when Fang ping suddenly laughed.”The harvest this time is not small. Yi is still in the precinct and has agreed to help this time. It can be considered an unexpected harvest.”
“That’s pretty lucky. “
“Yes,” Zhan Wang replied. He didn’t ask about the realmland and decided to talk about it when they returned.
Lu Zhen, on the other hand, glanced at Fang ping. He had just thought of a very serious problem.
When Fang ping went to the boundary, it was the Wargod who had escorted him there.
“That evil sect martial artist … How did he get there?
Could it be that the evil sect martial artists did not leave after Magic city’s catacombs collapsed?
He was thinking about this matter, while Fang ping did not think about it at all. It had nothing to do with him. He did not hit him, so there was no point in him looking at him.
Don’t accuse me without any evidence.
……
He entered the catacombs on the 12th. On the night of the 14th, Fang ping finally arrived at the West Mountain catacombs.
In the West Mountain catacombs ‘defensive Sea Mountain, Chen Guyang had been guarding the passageway of the defensive Sea Mountain. He seemed to have never left. No one knew how many years he had been sitting here.
This time, Fang ping did not hide his appearance and aura.
Chen Guyang glanced at Fang ping, then at Lu Zhen. He seemed to have guessed something. He looked at the two and nodded slightly, not saying anything.
Fang ping cupped his fists at Chen Guyang and smiled.”Senior Chen, I’m sorry to have embarrassed myself earlier when Fang ping impersonated Jiang Hao.”
“It’s fine,”Chen Guyang said with a faint smile,”it’s better to be careful when you enter the catacombs. I haven’t had time to thank yaozu and the others for what happened earlier. I should thank you, principal Fang. “
“Senior, you’re too polite. It was senior yaozu who helped me last time,”
As Fang ping was speaking, Chen Guyang suddenly looked toward the outer region, in the direction of the boundary region.
Zhan Wang also looked in that direction, and soon he smiled and said,””Fang ping, the old man inside seems to be making some moves. Do you want to go and take a look?”
On the side, Chen Guyang slightly frowned and said,””Don’t mess around! There’s been movement here a few times. I suspect it’s recovering! If we enter now, we might be treated as enemies!”
Fang ping was a little surprised. He could not help but ask,”The seniors of the Xuande Grotto-heaven are recovering? Then, the one I met last time …”
“It might be the spiritual Power’s physical form, or it hasn’t fully recovered from the last time. Recently, there has been a lot of movement in the precinct, so it might be in a state of recovery.”
Chen Gu yang explained and then slightly frowned,””For so many years, there has been no movement in the precinct. Recently, not only Xuande Grotto-heaven, but there seemed to be some movements in the other major realms.
The person inside is extremely quiet and is thinking of action. He might be coming out soon. “
Zhan Wang glanced at him and said with a smile,””Old Chen, do you think that person inside is your father?”
“……”
Chen Guyang’s face turned dark!
Damn it, this bastard.
There are juniors here!
What nonsense are you spouting!
How could it be his father?
Chen Guyang said indifferently,”it should have nothing to do with the Chen family. Yaozu and the others can’t get in at all.”
“That might not be the case. Perhaps your master?”
Chen Guyang didn’t refute battle King’s words. This possibility … Was not impossible.
The people at the top of the city all had their own guesses.
The Heavenly King might not have arranged for Chen Guyang to take charge of the West Mountain catacombs randomly. These people might really be related to the precinct.
“Did the guy inside look for you?” Zhan Wang asked when he saw that Jiang Chen was silent.
“No, I didn ‘t,”
“He didn’t contact you?”
Chen Guyang said lightly,”the people inside may not be able to come out now. How do we contact them?” Besides, who knows what our situation is? Moreover, we have our own lives. After hundreds of years, even if it’s really related to the precinct, it’s all in the past. “
After Chen Guyang finished, he looked at Fang ping and said slowly, “Don’t get too close to pudgy Jiang. There’s something wrong with him. I’ve always suspected that he’s the demon Emperor and has ulterior motives!
The monster plant that Zhang Tao had picked up in the Beihu catacombs back then might have been thrown out by pudgy Jiang.
In terms of understanding humans, he knew more.
“Moreover, he’s in charge of the Nanjiang catacombs, which is very close to the Beihu catacombs. The Beihu catacombs is also a territory that he patrolled, so the possibility of him being the one is the highest.
I don’t know what this guy is up to, so don’t get too close to him. “
Fang ping was dumbfounded. ‘What do you mean by saying this in front of the Wargod?’
And …
You just said pudgy Jiang, so I thought you were talking about Jiang Chao.
Fang ping looked embarrassed. The Wargod was also speechless. He cursed in a low voice, “Don’t talk nonsense, I didn’t give that kid Zhang Tao his monster plant. If I wanted to give it to him, I would give it to him openly so that he would remember our friendship.
I won’t hide a favor from you.
The people who were hiding were not good people. Who knew who did it!
“Also, old ghost Chen, you don’t have to test me. I’m not the demon Emperor. Even if I come from Mount Zi Gai … I might have a grudge against the demon Emperor.
This guy is an abandoned disciple of Mount Amethyst. He might even be a traitor to Mount Amethyst. Maybe I’ve fought with him before.
However, there are indeed some problems with Mount Zi Gai. “
“There’s a problem there,” battle King said in a deep voice.”The problem might be very serious. If there’s a chance, I should go and take a look!” There’s no one from the Jiang clan or any other humans in Mount Amethyst … But I found a passage in Mount Yuhai that leads directly to the boundary. It should be related to Mount Amethyst.
Someone could enter and exit Mount zigai through the passageway of Mount Yuhai …
The last time I went to check, the traces were very old. The ground was drilled through, and there was an underground passage …”
Chen Gu yang suddenly looked at him, gritted his teeth and said,””Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“What does it have to do with you?”
The Wargod’s face was full of disdain, and he said disdainfully, then looked at Fang ping and said,””I’m talking to you, kid. I actually suspect that you’re the demon Emperor … That hole might have been made by you. I think you’re good at digging holes!”
Fang Ping’s expression was dark, and he said righteously,”Senior, don’t slander me! I never dig holes!”
What nonsense are you spouting!
Lu Zhen is here, don’t I need face?
Who dug a hole!
However … There was actually a passageway between Mount zigai and Mount Yuhai?
In that case, it was possible that Zhan Wang had entered Mount Zi Gai?
As he was thinking, Chen Guyang also said in a deep voice,”You went in?”
“No, I just glanced around. The passage is sealed. If I break in, the sealed people should sense it. “Moreover, if I go, the true Kings of the catacombs might also discover it, so I haven’t entered. Actually, it hasn’t been long since they discovered it …”
After saying a few words, Zhan Wang smiled.”I’m just reminding you. You should check out the West Mountain catacombs too. Be careful of any passages. If the old fogeys inside break out all at once, the West Mountain catacombs will be very important and very troublesome!”
“I’ll be careful. “
Chen Gu yang responded. He attached great importance to this problem and was not careless.
The warlord did not say anything else. He led Fang ping and Lu Zhen into the vortex.
