Chapter 6 Initiation
A flame mark lit up on the jade plaque, representing that Tang Zheng had officially passed the qualification assessment of the Heavenly Fire Arena.
At this point, he is considered an official competitor with the most basic rank mark:
The Heavenly Fire Arena does not have a division of cultivation realms, only a division of competition levels.
The one who has fought with a hundred people is the most basic Heavenly Fire Fighter.
Those who win 10 games are bloody, those who win 100 games are Shura, and those who win 1,000 games are gods.
From the moment you become a Skyfire Fighter, the appearance fee begins to increase officially.
A fighter costs 10 Blackstone Coins per appearance for the losing side, and 100 Blackstone Coins for the winning side, doubling the cost for killing opponents.
The appearance cost of the Bloody Hand is one hundred for the loser, one thousand for the winner, and the kill is doubled.
The appearance cost of Shura is 1,000 for the loser and 10,000 for the winner, and the kill is doubled.
The appearance cost of killing the god is 10,000 for the loser, 100,000 for the winner, and the kill is doubled.
And that's just the base value, with some of the most popular fanciers going up in the lucrative.
In order to attract enough people to participate in the arena, in addition to the extremely bloody qualifying tournament, the official competition gives the loser a chance to surrender and survive, but at the same time uses a high prize money to stimulate the winner to kill the killer, and does not give the loser a chance to admit defeat, which increases the excitement of the game in this way.
Since only ten blackstone coins were given in the qualifying tournament, Tang Zheng participated in a fighter competition directly after the qualifier.
As a primary competition, the Fighter Tournament mainly concentrates some cultivators with extraordinary strength. Although there will also be Tianxin's strength mixed in, most of them are new to the team, need to fight one game at a time, and have to participate in low-level competitions.
In the first fighter match, Tang Zheng met a blood clan with nine-turn strength.
Tang Zheng unceremoniously wiped out the other party with the Flying Rain Sword.
The opponent is easy to deal with, but the ring feels smaller, and some restraints can't let go.
But it doesn't matter, just wait until you become a bloody hand.
The size of the arena is always based on the level, and the stronger the strength, the bigger the arena.
For example, if the killing god wants to compete, a field must be several miles in size. The main reason is that the arena is large, and the venue cannot be small.
As for the seats, it's nothing.
Just because you can sit 10 million people doesn't mean you have to sit with 10 million people.
Like a god-level gladiatorial fight, it is not very simple to sell tickets for 10,000 yuan. There are thousands of people who look at it as tens of millions of gains, and they can't lose anything.
Although the arena is large, it is also covered by spells, and the cost is extremely low. In addition to paying the cost of killing the gods, the rest is the cost of maintaining the circle.
It can be said that this business is easy to make money.
After taking two hundred black stone coins, Tang Zheng left.
It's not that he can't fight, but the arena is a field of life and death, and there is no luck in life and death fights, even if a person with the strength of Tongtian will not be so crazy that he will sweep many games in one breath. That will undoubtedly attract attention and increase your value, but it is also easy to attract attention, be targeted, and even attract attacks from hiding in the shadows.
No one can always win on the battlefield, excessive arrogance is to seek death!
Because of this, very few people play many games a day, usually two or three games a day.
After returning to the inn, Tang Zheng immediately began to meditate and breathe, his eyes were slightly closed, and there was a trace of black gas between the opening and closing of his handprints.
This is the way he is contemplating killing.
The reason why he chose to participate in the arena was on the one hand for resources, and on the other hand, it was to take the opportunity to understand the way of killing and destroying.
Killing and destroying are almost the two most difficult paths of Tang Tribulation in the Twelve Great Avenues, if it weren't for feeling some Dao thoughts from He Changan, he might not be able to achieve it by now. Even so, he is only at the beginning of enlightenment, far from being enlightened, and he is even worse from entering the Tao.
The reason why this is so is largely related to the fact that the Qixia realm where he is located belongs to the ruling world.
Under the rule of the world, everything has a legal basis to follow, and you can't kill at will, even if you are cultivating immortals, you need to deny yourself.
But in the Blood River Realm, it becomes different as soon as it is qiē.
Human life is not worth much here, and killing is king. In such a bloody and cruel environment, it is undoubtedly much easier to comprehend killing and destruction.
It is precisely because of this that Tang Zheng wants to seize the opportunity to participate in this environment, so as to help himself comprehend killing and destruction, and even enter the Tao.
Of course, he has only just started his killing journey now, and his understanding of killing is still at the original level, and his progress is limited, so the time to comprehend it is also short.
At this moment, I quickly woke up from my feelings, knowing that unless I had a deeper understanding, it was useless to continue to feel.
With a sigh, he was no longer reluctant, and then he took out another statue of a woman.
This statue is the original carving from the underground palace, and the woman on it is covered with a light veil, and even the sculpture is shrouded in a mystery, making it impossible to see the real face. But even so, at the first glance of this statue, Tang Zheng recognized the true face of the sculpture woman.
Yao girl into a dream.
That's right, the woman depicted in this carving is the woman on the dream map of the Yao girl.
Compared with the picture, the sculpture is more three-dimensional, more intuitive, and at the same time more mysterious, it just stands quietly, with a light veil on its face, pointing to the sky with one hand and scratching the ground with the other, making a mysterious and mysterious gesture.
Tang Zheng believed that since this thing was originally placed together with a divine object like the Emperor Extreme Biluo Dan, it must have its own value. It's a pity that since he got this sculpture, no matter how much he has played with it and searched for the mechanism, he has not been able to understand the mystery.
As the days went by, it became a habit to take out the sculpture every day to observe it.
After playing with the sculpture for a while, he didn't find anything, so Tang Zheng put it back and took out the immeasurable sword scabbard to figure it out. The hilt of this scabbard can make the Lord of the Blood River so valued, and it is definitely not an ordinary thing.
Compared with the clueless sculpture, Tang Zheng has some understanding of the Infinite Sword. Considering the powerful blood-sucking characteristics of the Infinite Sword, coupled with the importance and demand of the Lord of the Blood River for essence blood, Tang Zheng guessed that most of it had something to do with it. It's a pity that in addition, Tang Zheng can't know more, and after playing for a long time with no results, Tang Zheng can only abandon it.
From this day on, Tang Zheng began a life of daily competition.
Killing is cruel and bloody, even if Tang Zheng consciously restrains himself, but in fact, in this bloody and cruel world, many things do not change according to people's will.
Long-term indulging in the breath of death, wandering between life and death, on this day, Tang Zheng finally understood.
―――――――――――
"Life and death!"
With this low voice.
Now!!!
There was a sparkle in his eyes.
It was a pair of vast, deep eyes, and in that world, there was the rotation of the sun and the moon, and the alternation of yin and yang.
The sun rises and sets, and the silver moon flickers and flickers.
Suddenly, for a moment, the sun and the moon stood still at the same time, and the sun and moon appeared in both eyes.
The bridge of the nose is like a flyover, distinguishing the left and right, the sun and the moon hang in the long sky, and the tide rises and falls.
Tang Zheng (body), who had been sitting in front of the Ten Thousand Immortals, suddenly raised his head.
The next moment, the scene of the sun and moon in his eyes turned into a ray of light that flew out of his eyes, turning into a stripe of stripes floating in the air.
Tang Zheng stretched out his hand, and the streak fell lightly on his hand and disappeared.
At the same time, Tang Zheng could see that there was already a trace on his finger bones, as if the natural texture of the bone, but it was the pattern just now, which was reflected in Tang Zheng's body like this.
Initiation!
Yes, this is the initiation, it seems simple, but the process is complex, huge, vast and difficult.
Only when the comprehension of Dao Nian is deep enough and the comprehension is thorough enough can it be engraved into the bones.
The road pattern is into the bone, and the party is the way to enter!
If enlightenment is the process of thinking into the Tao, then the path is the process of the body entering the Tao, and the expression of its culmination is the Tao body!
The Dao pattern that entered the bones just now is the expression of Tang Zheng's entry into the Dao, which means that the power represented by this Dao pattern is no longer as simple as simple comprehension, but is combined with Tang Zheng's physical body.
This is not an easy task.
The condensation of the Dao pattern is the change from comprehension to application, the implementation from theory to practice, and the process of making one's body conform to the Dao!
Yin and Yang alone include many sides such as truth and falsehood, black and white, yin and yang, and many other sides, each pair represents a different field, and if you want to put the Tao pattern into the bone, you must understand and comprehend all of them, and only when you reach a certain degree can you make the Tao pattern into the bone.
Because of this, even if it is engraved with a road pattern, it means a huge challenge and difficulty, even with the help of Wan Xianding, Tang Zheng has always been one foot short of the door, and he has been unable to enter the Tao for a long time.
Unexpectedly, the final realization was the killing of the doppelganger in the arena, and the breakthrough of the comprehension of life and death through guò, so that the Tao of Yin and Yang took the lead in insight and completed the major event of the Dao pattern entering the body.
Of course, this does not mean that the initiation is complete, on the contrary, it is only the beginning.
Entering the Tao is both a threshold and a process.
The lines are endless, and the sand of the Ganges River is numerous.
A single Dao pattern can't even form a complete Dao thought.
It is precisely for this reason that entering the Dao is also like cultivation, which requires a long process, just as a cultivator accumulates spiritual energy drop by drop, and the Dao patterns must be engraved one by one. As it is now, it is just engraved with a road pattern, which can be regarded as entering the Dao, but it is the most rudimentary, and it is more than 108,000 miles away from Dacheng's entry.
The way of yin and yang, the texture has entered, and the next step is the process of continuous completion.
Just like the Lingquan Linghu Linghai, the requirements of the Dao pattern are getting bigger and bigger. The first pattern is the most difficult, and the follow-up will become more and more proficient, but the number of patterns required for engraving will also increase. It is not until the entire Yin and Yang Avenue is burned on it that a complete Dao body is formed, and it is called the completion of the Dao.
It's just that it's easier said than done.
It is also thanks to this Ten Thousand Immortal Ding, which gathers the endless power of the Ten Thousand Realms Royal Court, that the complete Yin and Yang Five Elements of the Tao is engraved on the Ding.
Even so, if you want to follow the gourd to draw a scoop and integrate all the thoughts of the Dingshang Dao into your body, you can't do it for thousands of years.
But it doesn't matter, Tang Zheng has time.
For those who cultivate and deviate from the scriptures, what they lack is always resources, and the most is time.
The only pity is that this ontological entry has nothing to do with the doppelganger.
Enlightenment is the process of cognition and understanding, and the Tang Tribulation is a soul and two bodies, so one enlightenment is equal to another enlightenment. However, entering the Tao is a matter of the physical level, and the ontological entry is not something that can be enjoyed by the doppelganger.
Of course, the ontology's comprehension and condensation process of Dao Thoughts, the clone is fully mastered, so the clone can also use the same method to condense the Dao pattern, but the complicated process is inevitable, and it still takes a lot of time.
This is like how Zang Qingfeng understands the spells he has learned, and every time he is reborn, he still has to cultivate from scratch. Of course, because of its familiarity, it can avoid many detours and be more efficient.
Even so, it is enough to make everyone envious - one comprehension, two bodies benefit, which is also extremely rare in the Star Luo Thousand Realms.
The reason why this is so is not that only Tang Zheng can condense the clone, but because only Tang Zheng has a flesh and blood clone so early, and he is walking the world instead of himself. The ontology relies on the cultivation of the resources of the soldier master, but the doppelganger relies on his own hard work and promotion, and has experienced countless experiences before he has today's treatment.
Even if it is a Zifu clone, most of his strength is limited when he is born, and if he goes out for a walk, he will be finished if he encounters a little trouble.
Because of this, it is almost unique that someone like Tang Zheng had it early and cultivated it all the way to this point.
However, now the doppelganger is busy in the killing field, trying his best to comprehend the way of killing and destroying, and he has no energy to condense yin and yang, so now it is one side of each refining, and the body is one step ahead of the first step to complete the first Dao condensation because of Wan Xianding.
At this moment, with the success of Tang Robbery's entry into the Dao, his eyes widened slightly, looking at Xu Miaoran.
At this glance, Xu Miaoran only felt dizzy in front of him, as if countless worlds were circulating in his eyes. Fortunately, it was only a moment, and then I regained my senses. Xu Miaoran was stunned at first, and then reacted and asked, "Success?"
Tang Zheng nodded: "I was lucky enough to finish it once." ”
"Great!" Xu Miaoran jumped up and pounced on Tang Zheng.
The first initiation is the hardest, but as long as you succeed, it means crossing the watershed and entering another world. Although in this new world, Tang Zheng is still just a baby born in a quack, but his future growth prospects are destined to be limitless.
Hugging Tang Zheng's neck, Xu Miaoran asked, "Is there any improvement?"
Tang Zai smiled: "It's just a pattern, what can it improve." But on the other hand, it also gave me a glimpse of the future. I thought, I know what I can do in the future. ”
"What can be done?"
"Too much, too much. Tang Zheng replied meaningfully: "First of all, it is ......"
Tang Zheng suddenly slapped his palm on Wan Xianding.
With this palm, Wan Xianding actually flew up, emitting a thousand feet of light in the air, and then it became smaller little by little, and finally fell into Tang Zheng's palm, which could be saved.
"You can use Wanxian Ding?" Xu Miaoran was surprised and delighted.
"It's far from it, it's just that this Dao pattern can lead to Wanxian Ding's upper avenue, and the two responded, barely being able to put it away. As for using it to fight...... Tang Zheng shook his head: "Either I will be promoted to the Purple Mansion, or I will enter the Dao Thousand Dao Patterns." ”
Xu Miaoran calculated, it was just a Dao pattern, Tang Zheng had been enlightened for nearly three months, and if he wanted to enter the Dao with a thousand Dao lines, he was afraid that he would not be able to do it in one or two hundred years. As for the Purple Mansion, not to mention, even if it is an amazing talent, there are few people who have achieved the Purple Mansion in two hundred years. This Ten Thousand Immortals Ding can't be counted on in a short period of time.
"It's a pity. Miss Xu let out a resentful sigh: "Such a good baby will not be able to use it in the end." ”
"If you want to use a baby, why rely on it, this is enough. Tang Zheng punched out, and under the word of soldier, the building collapsed, and a huge piece of gold sand had flown towards Tang Zheng. An oversized long-handled mountain chopping knife had already appeared in Tang Zao's hand, and his whole body was shining with golden light.
The golden sand flew onto the mountain chopper, and after only a few flashes, it merged into the knife, and the blade became larger again.
As far as the eye can see, the underground palace that was originally brilliant and prominent is now dilapidated, and at least one-third of the palace has disappeared under the iron fist of Tang Zheng. With the help of the soldier's words, the demolition efficiency of Tang Zheng was greatly improved, and more than ten buildings could be demolished in one day.
"Leave some of it for sale, and the rest for gold sand. Tang Zheng said: "I've thought about it, make a puppet that doesn't need to be replaced, make a few more armors, and make the rest into weapons." ”
Mica Adamantite is extremely hard, and although it is not sharp and bulky enough to make weapons, it is excellent to make armor. Tang Zheng had already decided that he would use gold sand to make a few decent pieces of armor.
"What do you want so many weapons for, can you use them?" Xu Miaoran asked, looking at the mountain chopping knife in his hand. Tang Zheng originally had a long-handled war hammer in his body, and later received He Changan's Eight Desolate Heavenly Halberds, and now he made a mountain chopping knife out of gold sand, which has three weapons.
Tang Zai took out Mu Yang Zhu and replied, "Of course, that's not enough. ”
“......”
―――――――――――――
Red steppe.
A crowd of people fell to their knees.
A demon tribe living in the red grassland, although it is only a small tribe, but the people in this tribe are all powerful and fierce, and the strongest of them can even overturn a powerful brute beast with one hand.
Now the strongest warrior in the tribe was lying on the ground, his skull shattered.
It was a Bloodline who stepped on his corpse.
To be exact, a clone of the Lord of the Blood River.
Holding up a piece of blood light with one hand, the image of a person appeared in the blood-colored light and shadow, it was Tang Zheng.
"I repeat, who has ever seen this man!
A group of demons looked at each other and shook their heads in a trembling manner.
After seeing the terrifying and powerful methods of the Lord of the Blood River, they completely lost their hearts to resist.
Seeing that no one knew, the Lord of the Blood River sighed.
With a wave of his hand, the blood mist in his hand spilled out, and every drop of blood turned into a deadly sharp dysprosium, whistling in the wind with the sound of death, instantly piercing the tribe of hundreds of people.
Large expanses of blood flowed from their corpses, turning into a mist of steaming blood.
The Lord of the Blood River took a long breath and had already sucked all the blood mist into his body.
By killing, he tried to calm his anger.
Don't blame him for being angry.
Originally, I was chasing the breath of blood agate all the way, but I didn't expect to chase halfway, and the breath of blood agate ended.
While the flesh mill crushed the blood agate, it also destroyed the energy of the blood river it originally contained, making it impossible for the Lord of the Blood River to pursue it. The thought that his essence blood might have been refined by this guy made the Lord of the Blood River feel boundless anger.
He has never been the only one who robbed other people's blood, but he didn't expect to be robbed of himself by this kid.
As soon as he thought of this, the Lord of the Blood River couldn't control the boiling anger in his heart anymore, and roared up to the sky: "Bastard, I will definitely find you!"
This voice spread throughout the four fields, shaking the world, and even Tang Zheng, who was far away in the capital of freedom, seemed to have a feeling, and instinctively looked in the direction of the red grassland.
At the same time, deep in the river of blood.
In the boiling blood-colored river, a black skeleton of bones was floating from a distance, as if it had no weight, carrying loads and floats on the surface of the river until it was pushed by the river to a river stand.
It lay there, like a pile of dead things, motionless.
As night fell, a blood demon emerged from the river of blood. The greedy, devouring, and low-witted blood demon came to the black bone, looked at the bitten bone with tooth marks, and tried to pick at the little remaining piece of flesh with his claws.
It peels off a little of the whitish flesh and sends it to its mouth.
This action obscured its vision, and it didn't see it, and at that moment, two lights suddenly lit up in the eye sockets of the black skull.
The light fell on the blood demon, and the black skull slowly opened its mouth.
A sharp cold light flashed through the tips of his teeth.
