Chapter 210: One of the Seven Realms of Alchemy - Creation of Life

Just as Gongsun Ce and Guiguzi were unscrupulously plundering the power of heaven and earth in Loulan, the topography of Loulan began to change.

The power of heaven and earth in Loulan is limited. Previously, the Queen Mother of the West had ruthlessly absorbed the power of heaven and earth for her own use, which had already hurt the origin of heaven and earth in Loulan.

At this time, the actions of Gongsun Ce and Guiguzi caused serious loss of the origin of Loulan's heaven and earth.

The edge of the original oasis began to become desertified, the grass and trees turned to ashes, and the water source began to evaporate.

In the blink of an eye, Loulan began to move towards the desert, and the Queen of Loulan's eyes went dark and she fainted.

She hadn't slept yet, but she dreamed that Loulan suddenly became unsuitable for living things. What the hell!
As Gongsun Ce and Guiguzi plundered the power of heaven and earth in Loulan, Lady Jiu Tian could no longer hide and wait for an opportunity to strike.

At this moment, Gongsun Ce and Guiguzi's absorption of the power of heaven and earth has reached a level that has had a great impact on Loulan.

Under the influence of the two people absorbing the power of heaven and earth, the hidden place where the Queen Mother of the West was located was also affected.

At this time, the Queen of Loulan and all the people of Loulan knelt down and prayed to the Queen Mother of the West.

"Great Lady of the Nine Heavens, please listen to the prayers of your people and save Loulan!"

"Save Loulan!"

The Queen Mother of the West knew that something was wrong. She knew very well that if she allowed Gongsun Ce and Guiguzi to continue absorbing the power of heaven and earth, Loulan would be doomed.

The last and purest belief of the Queen Mother of the West is here. This legendary power is one of the keys for the incarnation of the Queen Mother of the West to maintain itself.

Lady of the West has her own plans. She will never sit idly by and watch her clones fall apart, so she can only take action.

The figure of Lady of the West slowly appeared outside the God of War. As soon as she opened her mouth, she acted like a charlatan, yet she was dignified.

The sky of Loulan was originally clear and cloudless, but at this moment it seemed to be shrouded by an invisible force, appearing heavy and depressing.

Lady of the West, the legendary goddess, was standing in the center of Loulan at this moment, and her voice resounded throughout the entire city of Loulan.

"People of Loulan, Loulan is facing a life-and-death crisis right now. I need your strength. Please pray! Pray that I will win in the end and protect Loulan!"

The voice of Lady of the Nine Heavens was full of majesty and compassion. Every word seemed to carry magic, touching the hearts of everyone in Loulan.

As Queen Mother of the West spoke, the entire Loulan began to fall into solemn prayer.

People bowed their heads reverently, clasped their hands together, and silently chanted the name of the Queen Mother of the West in their hearts, praying that she would win and protect Loulan.

Under this devout prayer, Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu felt unprecedented power.

That is the pure power coming from the depths of the hearts of the people of Loulan, and it is the legendary power condensed from their trust and reverence for the Lady of the Nine Heavens.

This power poured into the body of Lady of the West like a surging river, causing her strength to surge in a short period of time.

Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu felt this powerful force and felt a little relieved.

Gongsun Ce stood opposite the Queen Mother of the West with a sneer on his face.

He stretched out his finger and drew a circle in front of him. Then a powerful force burst out from the circle and condensed into a huge black sun.

Word Spirit: Black Sun

This black sun exudes a terrifyingly high temperature, as if it can devour everything.

Now that the Queen Mother of the West has left the God of War, Gongsun Ce can do whatever he wants.

The black sun began to frantically absorb everything in Loulan - the people, houses, green plants... Everything that was sucked into the black sun was carbonized by the high temperature at the edge the moment it approached it.

However, Lady of the Nine Heavens turned a deaf ear to all this.

She closed her eyes tightly, and tried her best to mobilize the legendary power in her body, trying to break through the realm of unity between man and nature.

This realm was easy for her, and she could break through it quickly. Once she did, she believed that with the power of the unity of man and nature, she would be able to suppress Gongsun Ce with a single move.

Finally, amid endless prayers, Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu successfully broke through the realm of harmony between man and nature.

She felt that her connection with Loulan had become closer, and she could mobilize the power of heaven and earth at will.

However, at this moment, Gongsun Ce suddenly collapsed.

In an instant, an endless high-temperature storm surged out from the black sun and swept towards the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens.

The power of this storm was extremely terrifying, and the yellow sand blown by the storm instantly crystallized.

The Queen Mother of the West sneered, with a hint of disdain in her eyes.

She used her control over the power of heaven and earth to achieve the state of unity between man and nature, and tried to cancel the black sun released by Gongsun Ce.

When Gongsun Ce had just obtained the Word Spirit, Donghuang Taiyi, who was half a step into the state of unity between man and nature, almost cancelled the Black Sun.

But things are different now, as Black Sun's proficiency increases, Gongsun Ce has completed three blood bursts at this moment. Once Black Sun is formed, it is difficult for others to shake it.

What's more, the Black Sun has collapsed at this time and the fire element is no longer under control.

However, she soon discovered that she was unable to do this.

The fire element in the black sun has completely gone out of control.

The Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens could only face the terrifying power of the Black Sun. She mobilized the power of heaven and earth in her body and condensed it into an indestructible barrier, trying to block the first wave of the Black Sun's storm.

However, the force of the storm was too great, and the barrier began to crumble under the impact of the storm.

Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu knew that she had to come up with a solution as soon as possible.

She took a deep breath, mobilized all the legendary power in her body, and drew on the power of heaven and earth from Loulan, preparing to meet the next wave of attacks from the Black Sun.

The Queen of Loulan looked at the divine power of the Nine-Sky Lady and combined it with the accelerated collapse of Loulan. She knew very well that the Nine-Sky Lady had become the driving force behind Loulan's collapse.

Therefore, the Queen of Loulan collapsed, and she yelled frantically: "Xuan Nu! Why! Why destroy Loulan!"

The cry of the Queen of Loulan successfully interrupted the prayers of the people of Loulan, and they were shocked to find that their queen was telling the truth.

Instead of protecting Loulan, the Queen Mother of the West drained the power of heaven and earth from Loulan. Loulan had now completely turned into a desert, without a single green plant, and all the water had evaporated.

Therefore, just as Lady Jiu Tian was preparing to fight back, she found that her legendary power had been exhausted, and no new legendary power flowed into her body.

Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu was shocked.

She didn't expect that Gongsun Ce's Black Sun was so powerful that it could actually exhaust the legendary power she had previously collected.

She never expected that the queen of Loulan saw through her intentions, and the people of Loulan even abandoned their faith in her.

She felt that her strength was declining rapidly, falling from the state of unity between man and nature to the state of half-step unity between man and nature.

However, the state of half-step unity between man and nature was simply unable to stop the terrifying power of the black sun.

The Queen Mother of the West struggled to hold on in the storm, but her body began to gradually dissipate.

She knew that she was powerless to save the situation and could only place her last hope on the necklace - the Goddess's Tears.

Just as Lady of the Nine Heavens was about to disappear, she threw the necklace away.

The necklace glowed brightly in the air, and then turned into a light curtain that enveloped the Lady of the Nine Heavens. The faint voice of the Lady of the Nine Heavens could be heard from the light curtain.

"People of Loulan, I will be away for a while. Please believe that I will return to protect you in the end."

However, at this time, the people of Loulan could no longer believe the words of the Queen Mother of the West.

The Queen Mother of the West didn't care whether the people of Loulan believed her or not. Her figure completely disappeared and merged into the Goddess's Tears.

The next moment, the goddess' tears turned into a stream of light and streaked across the sky, preparing to escape from Loulan.

At this time, Gongsun Ce would naturally not let the Queen Mother of the West escape.

Gongsun Ce grasped the air, and the strong wind turned into a big net to intercept the tears of the goddess.

No matter how the Goddess's Tears struggled, it could not escape the strong wind controlled by Gongsun Ce.

The next moment, Gongsun Ce appeared beside the Goddess's Tears in a flash, and he held the Goddess's Tears in his hand with a casual squeeze.

The moment he held the Goddess's Tears in his hand, Gongsun Ce realized that this pendant was extraordinary.

It contains a tear of the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens. Not only is its material extremely hard, it also contains powerful energy and the consciousness of the incarnation of the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens.

Gongsun Ce knew very well that it was not easy to completely destroy the consciousness of the Queen Mother of the West hidden in the Tears of the Goddess.

However, this tenacious consciousness gave Gongsun Ce other ideas.

There are seven realms in alchemy: conceptual arming, time reversal, space development, life creation, element replacement, spiritual recasting, and cause and effect separation.

Anyone who can master one of them can be called the unprecedented king of alchemy.

However, Gongsun Ce came to an interesting conclusion after calculating with the Word Spirit·Evolution, that is, anyone can complete these seven achievements.

There is only one prerequisite, that is, the material is tough enough.

The difficulty of carving a piece of rotten wood into a wood sculpture is completely different from that of carving a piece of hardwood into a wood sculpture.

The premise that the brick can be flying without being hurt even if the force is great is that the brick is hard enough.

Likewise, even a half-blood who had just mastered alchemy could complete the seven achievements as long as he was given strong enough materials.

To put it bluntly, the king relies on skills, while the rookie relies on materials and krypton gold.

Gongsun Ce closed his eyes and felt the subtle fluctuations emanating from the Goddess's Tears.

His fingers gently stroked the surface of the pendant, and the moment his Grand Master's Will touched the Goddess's Tears, it was repelled by the Goddess's Tears.

Gongsun Ce raised his eyebrows and recited the dragon text.

Word Spirit Hypnosis

Gongsun Ce's spiritual fluctuations were in sync with the Goddess's Tears, allowing Gongsun Ce to successfully see the incarnation of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady in the Goddess's Tears.

Finally, Gongsun Ce slowly opened his eyes, and his golden pupils were opened instinctively.

He took a deep breath and began to perform his alchemy.

The Tears of the Goddess kept shaking, rejecting Gongsun Ce's contact and also rejecting Gongsun Ce's guidance of the energy within the Tears of the Goddess.

However, the struggle of the Goddess's Tears was nothing in Gongsun Ce's eyes.

Gradually, the energy in the Goddess's Tears began to be guided out and condensed into a vague human figure. Although this figure was blurry, it exuded a powerful power fluctuation.

Gongsun Ce knew that this was the embodiment of the energy in the Goddess's Tears.

The incarnation of Lady of the Nine Heavens roared in the Tears of the Goddess, trying to stop Gongsun Ce's actions.

However, Gongsun Ce remained unmoved. He continued to practice alchemy steadily and continued to condense this energy.

During this process, Gongsun Ce felt the anger, despair and unwillingness of the incarnation of the Queen Mother of the West, but he was not affected by these emotions.

He whispered to the figure, "Your name is Xiao Li, you will be kind and brave, and become my maid."

As Gongsun Ce finished speaking, the condensed figure of the girl began to gradually become clear.

Her face was delicate and beautiful, with some inexplicable light flashing in her eyes.

After hearing Gongsun Ce's words, she nodded, as if accepting her fate.

Then, a real girl condensed in the air in front of Gongsun Ce.

Her clothes were no different from the previous incarnation of Lady of the West, but her eyes were clear and bright, revealing a pure and innocent temperament.

Gongsun Ce looked at Xiao Li and nodded with satisfaction. He knew that he had successfully recast the energy of the Goddess's Tears into a human form and destroyed the consciousness of the incarnation of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady from the root.

However, Gongsun Ce did not relax his vigilance because he knew that although he had successfully destroyed the consciousness of the incarnation of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady.

However, the whereabouts of the real body of Queen Mother of the West was still unknown at this time, which made Gongsun Ce feel helpless.

Because the whereabouts of this group of people in ancient times who relied on legends to achieve the state of unity between man and nature are unknown.

Zhuangzi, who is praised as the last of the Hundred Schools of Thought to achieve the state of unity between man and nature, seems to know something, but he never mentions it even to his disciple Bei Mingzi.

It seems that the whereabouts of these masters who have reached the state of unity between man and nature is a taboo.

However, what Queen Mother of the West left behind was enough for Gongsun Ce to deduce the next path.

There is still some power belonging to the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens remaining in the goddess' tears, which is enough for Gongsun Ce to explore some of the mysteries of the state of unity between man and nature.

At this time, Gongsun Ce looked at the group of Loulan people below. He thought for a moment and said, "Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady has died in my hands. The power of Loulan has been lost. It is no longer suitable for you to survive.

If you want to find a way to survive, you can follow me to Xianyang.

If you think you can make a living in the vast desert, then go ahead."

After saying that, Gongsun Ce activated the Demon God of War and left Loulan. The Demon God of War could cover a distance of dozens of meters in one step, giving the people of Loulan no time to think.

The eyes of the people of Loulan were filled with nostalgia and reluctance to leave their homeland.

However, Loulan could no longer provide the resources they needed to survive. The power of heaven and earth had been drained, causing Loulan to become a piece of yellow sand.

As Gongsun Ce finished speaking, the people of Loulan began to take action.

They packed their bags, supported the elderly and children, and set out on a journey to leave their homeland.

The team moved forward slowly in the yellow sand, and every step seemed extremely difficult.

However, their eyes were full of determination and hope, because they knew that only by following Gongsun Ce could they find hope of survival.

The queen of Loulan took one last look in the direction of the temple, and then resolutely followed the group of Loulan people.

The yellow sand is endless and the road ahead is long and dim, but the people of Loulan cannot stop moving forward.

It was not until seven days later that the Demon God of War led his team to the edge of the desert.

Although the town in front of him was simple, it was full of life and vigor. It was the town where Gongsun Ce found the dragon soul before.

Among the soldiers, demons and gods, Gongsun Ce holds a crystal clear gem in his hand - the Goddess's Tears.

This gem emits a faint light. After Gongsun Ce channeled the energy from it to create Xiao Li, there is very little energy left.

However, this little remaining energy is the key to Gongsun Ce's exploration of the state of unity between man and nature.

In addition to the legendary power, the energy in the Goddess's Tears also hides an unknown energy of extremely high quality.

Gongsun Ce guessed that this energy might be the key to helping him achieve the state of harmony between man and nature.

However, the energy in the Goddess's Tears is scarce, and that special energy is so scarce that it is almost undetectable.

Gongsun Ce tried many methods to extract and study this energy, but all ended in failure.

At this time, Guiguzi also discovered Gongsun Ce's intention. He was also curious about the source of this energy, but he was more curious about Xiao Li's existence.

Although he did not witness Gongsun Ce's feat of creating humans with energy, he could prove that Xiao Li was a pure energy body.

At this moment, Gongsun Ce's eyes fell on the Chiyou sword beside him.

The patterns on this sword are complex and mysterious, and seem to contain some information.

However, the characters used in these patterns were so ancient and rare that Gongsun Ce was unable to translate them into modern language.

Gongsun Ce gently stroked the Chiyou Sword. Time seemed to stand still at this moment. Some pictures emerged in Gongsun Ce's mind. He saw the experience of Chiyou forging the Chiyou Sword.

Finally, Gongsun Ce guessed that the pattern on Chiyou's sword was a word "Soldier".

Gongsun Ce's heart moved, he understood, this word was one of the clues he had been looking for - the origin of the world.

To walk your own path is to leave a mark on the origin of the world, and to use this mark to mobilize the power of heaven and earth for your own use.

Therefore, later generations cannot follow the path of their ancestors, and even if they are more outstanding, it is difficult for them to surpass their ancestors.

This is why Confucius emerged from Confucianism, Mohism emerged from Mozi, and the first Guiguzi emerged from the School of Diplomacy...

Among the military strategists over the years, the only one who was close to the state of unity between man and nature was Bai Qi, who reached the middle stage of grandmaster. However, Bai Qi was still unable to control his own strength.

Although Li Mu had reached the realm of Grandmaster, according to Gongsun Ce's opinion, it would be difficult for Li Mu to break through to the middle stage of Grandmaster, let alone achieve the unity of man and nature.

If he continues to follow the path of military strategy, he will certainly not be able to succeed Chi You as the new Lord of Army and achieve the state of unity between man and nature.

Gongsun Ce told Guiguzi his speculation, and Guiguzi's expression was extremely calm after listening to it.

"I see. I actually had a guess long ago, but I just didn't want to admit it. I have to say that although Brother Xunzi's martial arts level is not as good as mine, his open-mindedness is far better than mine.

I don’t know if I can break through the state of unity of man and nature in my lifetime, but you have the possibility. I just hope you can reach the state of unity of man and nature as soon as possible, so that I can see the power of this state. "

After saying this, Guiguzi continued to meditate and regulate his breathing to repair his injuries, looking as if he was oblivious to what was happening outside.

Gongsun Ce shook his head helplessly. He understood this situation of collapsed faith.

After all, a person wearing overalls is not necessarily called Mario.

After Gongsun Ce finished his deduction, he felt a sharp pain in his head, so he lay on Xiao Li's lap and asked Xiao Li to press the acupoints on his head.

The people of Loulan stayed in the small town and were guarded by the Qin army stationed there, while Gongsun Ce drove the Soldier Demon God and continued to move towards Xianyang.

Gongsun Ce controlled the Soldier Demon God to move along the less traveled paths as much as possible, but due to the huge size of the Soldier Demon God, it caused considerable unrest along the way.

In addition, after the Demon God of War walked on these paths, the loose loess was all compacted, and the Demon God of War forcibly opened up several official roads.

The official roads of this era were still roads formed by crushing loess with huge stones, so Gongsun Ce's control of the progress of the Soldier Demon God was a good thing as it saved the workload of opening up a new official road.

A month later, outside the city of Xianyang, the Demon God of War, who was over a hundred meters tall, walked slowly forward like a giant from ancient times.

Each step on the compacted dirt road stirred up layers of dust.

And each of its steps was dozens of meters long, as if it could cross mountains and rivers.

The figure of the Demon God of War casts a long shadow in the sun, and the bronze structure sparkles in the sun, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

Its arrival aroused the vigilance of the defenders in Xianyang City, but orders were soon issued in the Xianyang Palace.

The order was simple, which was to ignore the actions of the Soldier Demon God.

The Demon God of War was clearing a path along the way and Guiguzi needed to recuperate, so naturally he would not approach Xianyang as quickly as he was doing now.

Therefore, the Luowang killers along the way took the lead in reporting the intelligence about the Soldier Demon God and the people of Loulan to Ying Zheng.

Soon, the Soldier Demon God arrived near the wall of Xianyang City. It stopped and sat cross-legged.

Even when sitting down, its body still towers into the clouds, far exceeding the height of the city wall.

The soldiers on the city wall looked at this uninvited guest with awe and uneasiness in their hearts.

When Ying Zheng heard the news that the Demon God of War had arrived outside the city of Xianyang, he immediately went to the city wall.

He looked up at the bronze giant, excitement flashing in his eyes. This was the peerless magic weapon he wanted.

The mecha model forged by Gongshu Chou was like the difference between an ant and an elephant in front of the Demon God of War.

The bronze body of the God of War looked particularly spectacular in the sun, as if a towering mountain stood there.

Every detail of it is full of power.

As Ying Zheng looked at the Demon God of War, a strong desire surged in his heart. That was to let Gongshu Chou imitate the Demon God of War and forge twelve golden men according to Gongsun Ce's previous suggestion as the guardian force of the Qin Dynasty.

Ying Zheng believed that even if the twelve golden men were not as powerful or as big as the Weapon Demon God, they were still invincible weapons.

Ying Zheng knew that given the size of the Demon God of War, it would be easy for it to kick down the city wall with one kick, and it could even easily destroy the entire Xianyang City.

Gongsun Ce controlled the Soldier Demon God to lower his head and open the cab. The Soldier Demon God then opened his mouth wide, and a cab appeared in front of Ying Zheng.

The next moment Gongsun Ce hooked his hand, and a breeze lifted up Ying Zheng's figure, and Ying Zheng floated into the driver's seat of the Demon God of War.

Ying Zheng looked at the interior of the cab, unable to conceal the joy in his eyes.

The interior of the cab is quite simple, with black walls and red runes.

After observing the cab for a while, Ying Zheng was a little confused, so he asked Gongsun Ce: "Mr. Gongsun, how do you control this thing?"

"Thought, this thing is called the Weapon Demon God. Chi You's eighty-one sworn brothers are actually the Weapon Demon God. However, the remaining eighty Weapon Demon Gods were destroyed by the Yellow Emperor during the Battle of Zhuolu.

This is the last surviving and strongest Soldier Demon God. A Zheng can try to pilot it."
