Chapter 1608: Benefit Gathering
Above the sea of ​​clouds,

Inside the energy ball shining with golden light, six blooming golden lotuses were swaying in the void.

This flower is neither real nor unreal, neither true nor false, neither alive nor dead. It is a strange flower between reality and illusion, truth and falsehood, life and death.

It is only after the [Light of Destruction] annihilated countless lives that these six [Flowers of the Great Dao], or [Flowers of the Dao] for short, were born.

The well-known function of [Daohua] is to enhance people's cultivation, but those who come from the twelve origin forces in the outside world rarely use [Daohua] to enhance their cultivation, as that is too extravagant.

All the major forces have more or less several secret methods to improve their cultivation in a short period of time. However, these secret methods have flaws, and there are various hidden dangers when improving cultivation.

After obtaining the Dao Flower, the people from the twelve origin forces did not use it to improve their cultivation, but to repair their own foundations and eliminate various hidden dangers in their bodies.

[Daohua] is not rare in the outer world, but it can only be found in the trial mission world. Because every time [Daohua] appears, in addition to the origin of the world, a large number of creatures need to be sacrificed. Ordinary creatures are not enough, and cultivators must join in. Although the twelve origins in the outer world are powerful, they dare not kill people in their own world.

At this moment, six [Flowers of the Avenue] appeared in the void. One can imagine how many people died on this battlefield.

With the death of Longqin, the third prince of Qing Kingdom, the [Dao Flower] that was gestating in the sky has also taken shape.

Whether it is Xiu Ci or Xue He, they have been frequently using secret methods to improve their cultivation during this period. Their foundations have long been damaged. If there is no [Daohua] to repair their foundations, their future strength will basically stop here.

Everyone who enters this world will face a choice.

That is whether or not to use the secret method to improve your cultivation. If the enemy uses the secret method and you don’t use it, the result will inevitably end in your death.

They all came from one of the twelve origin forces, and their talents were not too different. It was impossible for the weak to defeat the strong or for them to challenge higher levels.

In fact, this choice is a multiple-choice question.

Xuehe and Xiuci used a secret method to raise their cultivation to the ninth level of the mortal realm in one fell swoop. It can be said that they have exhausted their potential, and the solid foundation they laid in previous years has basically been destroyed.

Xuehe and Xiuci were flying in the air, rapidly approaching the six [Dao Flowers].

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

"Great! Six [Dao Flowers] actually appeared."

"The monk has six flowers here. We can each get three. After repairing our foundation and potential, we will have enough left. There is no need to fight for them." The man in a white scholar's robe and with a feminine temperament said excitedly.

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

"That's right! That's right!!!"

"Three flowers for one person is more than enough to repair the foundation of the Tao. There is no need for us to continue fighting to the death."

Xiu Ci, a monk from Huasheng Temple, whose shiny head had not a single hair on it, said with great joy.

After a while

They arrived at the area where the [Daohua] was located. The two looked at each other and laughed, and said at the same time: "Divide it."

They stretched out their hands to pick flowers, and suddenly changed direction and hit each other.

"bump!"

A loud bang appeared in the void, followed by a series of explosions and angry roars.

"Despicable!" x2
"I knew you, a bald thief, would plot against me."

"You shameless fellow, actually attacked me by surprise."

The loud noises of the two men's attacks continued to echo in the void, along with the sounds of mutual accusations and abuse.

Xiu Ci and Xue He are not good people in themselves, and they come together because of interests. They don't have any deep emotional foundation. It can be said that they are not even friends.

When Xiu Ci and Xue He are combined to use secret techniques, they can indeed reduce the defects of each other's secret techniques, but no matter how they are reduced, there will still be hidden dangers. If there were only two Taoist flowers in the sky, the two would not turn against each other.

Because even if they get both [Dao Flowers], they can only repair their damaged foundation and improve their cultivation a little bit. In order to have an easier time in the future, they will definitely choose to continue to cooperate and use secret methods to improve their cultivation.

They come together because of interests, and naturally they will break up because of interests.

Six [Tao flowers]!
It is enough for them to repair their foundation, break through the divine realm, and even take their cultivation to a higher level.

With the [Dao Flower] that can improve cultivation without any consequences, there is no need for secret methods to improve cultivation. There is no need to use secret methods, so naturally there is no need for the other party to exist.

···········
In the void among the white sea of ​​clouds, two figures were sitting among the clouds. There was a spherical transparent energy shield outside their bodies, which could conceal their tracks.

They were Wang Ming and Zhao Yun who were secretly observing the fight between Xuehe and his men.

"These two people are really interesting. They had a tacit understanding before, like old friends, but now they turned against each other so decisively." Zhao Yun said with a smile.

"The two of them are extremely cold-blooded and selfish people. They have previously killed mortals on a large scale to improve their cultivation and have no moral principles at all. The only reason they can come together is because of their own interests. There is no friendship between them at all." Wang Ming said after taking a look.

Zhao Yun glanced in the direction of the earth. The big mountain in the north was eaten away by the strange black substance and no longer looked like a mountain. It looked more like a pillar. Among the rubble at the top of the mountain, there were two sneaky figures.

"There are still people alive?" Zhao Yun said in surprise.

Wang Ming glanced at Zhao Yun when he heard this, and then followed Zhao Yun's gaze and found a sneaky figure in the rubble: "That's Tong Xin, and the person next to him should be someone close to the prince of Qing."

"He is indeed lucky." Wang Ming said with emotion.

Zhao Yun frowned and said, "This Tong Xin has a bad brain and is too talented. He can be easily controlled to deal with us. Should we kill him now?"

After hearing Zhao Yun's proposal, Wang Ming thought for a while and shook his head, "Forget it!"

"Although Tong Xin is a nuisance, it is not worth exposing our whereabouts in advance in order to get rid of him."

If the strange black substance summoned by Song Renyi was still there and had not been removed by the remote control [Destruction Light] of the people in the Divine Court, Wang Ming would not have to be so cautious and could just push it over.

However, without the strange black substance, Wang Ming's hard power is even worse than Zhao Yun's. After all, his physical body has just recovered, and even his physical body has just recovered to the point where it can fight.

Zhao Yun's strength was also at the ninth level of the Mortal Realm. If he faced either Xuehe or Xiuci alone, the chances of winning or losing were only 50-50. If he faced two people at the same time, the result would be self-evident. Therefore, Wang Ming chose to watch them fight for the Dao Flower first.

If he takes action against Tong Xin at this time, it will inevitably alarm Xuehe and Xiuci. They might even join forces, which is not what Wang Ming wants to see.

"That's right! They are not worth us exposing in advance." Zhao Yun nodded in agreement.

Then Zhao Yun looked in the direction of Xuehe and the others and said, "It seems that they have created real fire! Their bodies have exploded several times."

Wang Ming didn't pay attention to the fight between Xuehe and the others. To him, this level of fighting was just a child's play. He had no interest in watching. So he asked Zhao Yun to watch while he adjusted to his new body.

This body was made by him personally, but it was a new body after all, so he still needed to use it well. When fighting with masters of the same level, if the body was out of coordination and unfamiliar, it could determine the outcome of the battle, or even life or death.

In terms of the details of the refining, this body was better than the one previously refined in [Immortal Sword World], after all, the craftsmanship was improving. However, in terms of the potential of the body, it was far inferior.

"Aren't we going to take action yet?" Zhao Yun also asked at this moment.

Zhao Yun had experienced the wonder of Taoist flowers before. She was extremely envious of the six golden flowers in the void. If Wang Ming had not suppressed her, she would have joined the team fighting for them long ago.

Wang Ming's eyes lit up with golden energy. He stared at Xuehe and Xiuci for a while. Through the divine light outside their bodies, he saw the traces of energy flow in their bodies.

·············
"Cough cough cough!!!"

"Blood river! You shameless fellow." Monk Xiuci tapped his body with his fingers to seal the wounds. But even if he sealed the wounds with his power, it only reduced the amount of blood flowing out, and could not completely stop the bleeding.

Xuehe practices the blood path technique. If someone is weaker than him and stands in front of Xuehe, he can control the blood in the other person's body, causing the blood to riot and cause death.

Even if their strengths are similar and they can suppress that controlling force, if a wound appears on their body, the blood in their body will inevitably pour out like a flood.

Xiu Ci's face was pale at this time, and he had obviously lost a lot of blood. He had to gasp for breath when he spoke. He was getting weaker and weaker, and he had trouble even raising his hands.

The Blood River was also not feeling well.

Xiu Ci exuded an invisible and intangible golden Buddha light. The closer he got to Xiu Ci, the weaker his killing intent became. As the golden Buddha light shone on him for longer, he even had the urge to kneel down before Xiu Ci and lay down his butcher knife to become a Buddha.

Xuehe knew very well what was going on. Huasheng Temple claimed to be best at the [Golden Body of Buddhism], but those who knew the details knew that what they were best at was actually the [Method of Salvation].

Xuehe had seen Monk Xiuci use this technique many times along the way, so he was naturally familiar with it. It was just that it had not been used on him before, so he did not feel it strongly. When he experienced it this time, he suddenly understood the horror of this technique.

Xuehe exclaimed, "Wow, the methods used by the righteous sect are definitely more evil than those used by the evil sect."

At first, the two started close combat, and they were extremely confident in their close combat abilities.

The martial arts practiced by Xuehe allowed his entire body to become liquid, making him immune to all physical attacks. No matter how the enemy attacked his body, it would recover to its original state.

Xiu Ci was born into a Buddhist sect, and he had practiced the weakened version of the Golden Body technique passed down by the sect very well, and his physical body was comparable to that of ordinary magic weapons.

However, after several close combats, they suddenly realized that close combat was too dangerous and it was safer to keep their distance.

Therefore, the scene appeared where the two of them stood opposite each other a hundred meters apart under six golden flowers.

They were just standing there, but both of them were trying their best to practice their own skills. One wanted to make the other bleed to death and merge with him. The other wanted to destroy his spirit and become an obedient puppet.

The two men confronted each other from noon until the moon was high in the sky, but there was still no winner.

but,

The black and white area above the horizon also began to shrink towards the center at this time.

"Master Xiuci, why don't we stop fighting first!"

"If we don't pick the Dao Flower in time, then this battle zone surrounded by the Destruction Light will not disappear. If we continue like this, we will definitely be killed by the Destruction Light."

"Why don't we each pick three [Dao Flowers] first and let the enemy continue fighting." Xuehe said sincerely.

Xiu Ci curled his lips and said in a mocking tone: "Do you think I'm a fool?"

"I practice Buddhist techniques, and you practice magic techniques. We both got the [Dao Flower] at the same time. You can swallow it directly to improve your cultivation. But I need to practice hard for a while."

"In a battle, I'm letting you improve your cultivation. What's the difference between that and me sending my head to you for you to chop off?"

When Xuehe heard this, he was not embarrassed about having his thoughts seen through.

"In that case, let's end this battle quickly! Otherwise, if we continue like this, we will surely die."

"Good! Quick and decisive battle."

Then Xuehe and Xiuci were seen turning into streams of light and flying out, constantly colliding and separating in the void, separating and colliding again, and beams of energy waves continuously swept in all directions.

bump!
Xiu Ci's golden Zen staff and Xue He's white jade folding fan collided in the void. This time the two did not separate. All the strength in their bodies flowed along the weapons in their hands and rushed towards each other. They were forced to do so. If they continued to delay time, they would all be killed by the [Destruction Light].

The strength of the two is not much different from each other. When they fight with their Yuanli, they are evenly matched and it is difficult to determine the winner in a short time.

At this moment, a purple dragon of light and shadow appeared from the white clouds behind them and breathed out dragon breath at the two of them at the same time.

"boom!!!"

"what--"

"Damn it! It's that vicious woman Zhao Yun."

"Why is she here?"

The battle between Xuehe and Xiuci reached a fever pitch, and their vigilance towards the surroundings was reduced to the lowest point. After all, this was the war zone encircled by the [Light of Destruction], and with the deaths of Longqin and the others, no one could threaten their safety.

But at this time, a person they didn't want at all appeared. Needless to say, they were shocked. They wanted to withdraw their hands immediately to resist Zhao Yun's surprise attack, but it was too late.

Zhao Yun's attack hit both of them in the chest.
