Chapter 83: Great Changes! Blood Pool! Sea, Land And Air Plan! Capture The Plane!

years later. In the Zixiao Palace, ripples appeared one after another, and the prehistoric giants with fluttering breaths but extraordinarily bright eyes walked out of the void one after another. "Fuck it, it's really fast, and a reincarnation space has resources close to one billion original currency reserves." Yuanfeng's face was agitated, and he said excitedly. Nearly one billion native coins! Even if the loot is to be divided, everyone can at least get tens of millions of native coins, but what time do they spend? It’s just a few years. If there are another hundred or so such transactions, it will be less than a hundred years to get a harvest of one billion native coins! One million years is the start of hundreds of billions of origin coins! Well, of course, this is just a dream. (Note: The origin currency obtained by the protagonist in the previous chapter has been revised to more than 10 billion, which does not affect reading.)

"Okay, let's allocate all the resources. The space of reincarnation itself is not very useful to you. If you give the evolution of the Dao in different planes of the Dao of Heaven, it will be of great help to the development of the Xiao Realm." "This allocation will reduce my part proportionally, and this reincarnation space will be given to me. Do you have any objections?" Hongjun said in a deep voice. "no disagreement. "no disagreement." Everyone looked at each other, shook their heads and said. "Okay, since that's the case, that day you will come and distribute it. A smile appeared on Hongjun's face when he heard the words, and he looked up at the void and said indifferently. buzz!!! A ray of heavenly power gathers, and it seems to be illuminated by a brilliant golden light. The majestic will descends, and the eye of heaven slowly condenses and forms from the void. The prehistoric years do not remember the years, and the past tens of thousands of years. In the blink of an eye, millions of years have passed since the last invasion of the reincarnation space. During this period, the entire prehistoric world is no longer indescribable, even the rapid changes are difficult to estimate, almost every time there will be earth-shaking changes The most notable thing is that headed by Sanqing and others, all the prehistoric powers have successively broken through and reached the realm of Hunyuan. For example, Yuqing, Shangqing, Fuxi, Dijun, Taiyi, Jieyin, Zhunti, and the other eleven ancestral witches except Dijiang, etc., have all broken through one after another! In the end, both Zhenyuanzi and Hongyun managed to break through to the Hunyuan Daluojin Fairyland millions of years later. In addition, Kunpeng, Randeng and other second-tier prehistoric powerhouses have also reached the pinnacle of quasi-sages , is not far from the realm of Hunyuan. With such great power, it is conceivable that other sentient beings have changed greatly. The transformation of the strength of all creatures in the entire prehistoric plane is amazing, and the breakthrough in cultivation is even more unimaginable. The gathered 503 energy vortex can be seen from all over the Great Desolate Continent almost all the time, and from time to time there will be bursts of violent aura spreading.

Almost every moment there will be a breakthrough in the cultivation of living beings, and this time will undoubtedly continue for a long time, and it will not stop until the improvement of the cultivation of all living beings reaches ten bottleneck periods. As for the reason, there is no doubt that the Da Luo Immortal System is the first to bear the brunt. A systematic training system can naturally reduce the difficulty of training a lot. Coupled with the integration of the origin of Honghuang's original passage and the space of the main god given by Yang Mei, this has improved the level of Honghuang, and the aura and avenues contained in it will naturally become more. Down to sentient beings, then to the strong, and even the Dao of Heaven, everything in the entire prehistoric plane seems to be in a period of rapid development. Infinite changes, unpredictable horror! Not to mention ordinary creatures, even Hongjun and others will feel unfamiliar with the current prehistoric plane if they have retreated for a long time. Buzhoushan, no, it should be Tianyuan now. Millions of years ago, after refining the source of his heart, Pangu moved and devoured the entire Buzhou Mountain into his body and began to refine it. This made the Buzhou Mountain that had stood in the Primordial Continent for endless years completely disappear. As for the impact of Buzhou Mountain's disappearance, this is harmless. After all, Buzhou Mountain itself has more symbolic meaning than actual meaning. After Pan Gu's resurrection, this symbolic meaning is no longer important. Needless to say, the turbid air, clear air, and the water of the Tianhe River can be easily solved by panting the tongue. Because Buzhou Mountain was moved, a bottomless tiankeng appeared on the ground, so this place is called... Tianyuan! In the sky above Tianyuan and below the heaven realm, in a world that has been opened up, all members of the Wu clan have been transferred to it. In the Ancestral Witch Hall, the twelve Ancestral Witches took their seats one after another, and the one in the main seat was undoubtedly Pan Gu. "Father God, we are all ready for the opening of the Chaos Realm, how long will it take for your cultivation to recover?" Di Jiang asked. "This deity is refining Buzhou Mountain. Within tens of millions of years, Buzhou Mountain can be refined and stabilized. The total of before and after does not exceed 15 million years." Pan Gu's incarnation said in a deep voice. "Fifteen million years....." The ancestor witches looked at each other and nodded in agreement one after another. "I used my original blood plus the treasures of heaven, material and earth to re-create the magic weapon that has the ability of my heart to evolve the people of the past. "During this period of time, you can use this magic weapon with resources to continue to create clansmen. You can use this to obtain resources in a short period of time. Others, I have ideas after I leave the level and create the Chaos Realm." But I saw Pangu reach out his hand a little, and in the void, streaks of dao lines intertwined with gods, a large number of orderly gods gathered, and a simple and vicissitudes of rusty pool appeared in the void as if it had spanned endless years. "It's called Blood Pond." Pan Gu said slowly. East China Sea Dragon Palace. Zulong, Zufeng, Zu Qilin, Zhulong, Yuanfeng, Mo Qilin and other six Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian gathered together. "So much time has passed, what should be prepared has been prepared, and it is time to start doing it. Zulong said calmly with deep eyes.

"Brother, the plan you want to carry out... Candle Dragon asked curiously. "resource development." Zulong said in a deep voice. "resource development!?" Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling something in their hearts, seemed to be touched, but Xiali Tanhua couldn't understand it. "My dragon clan guards the prehistoric world, the Feng clan guards the prehistoric sky, the Qilin clan guards the prehistoric land, plus the ten thousand clans under my command, it can be said that it covers the entire prehistoric plane in all directions, and also covers all the rights that should be there. "If we only search for resources in the wild, it will completely sacrifice our advantages and waste time. The effect that can be achieved is extremely low, and the efficiency is self-evident." "but!" "If it's resource development, it's different." "Looking at the prehistoric world, there are countless places where there are innate formations or forbidden barriers. If we find out by ourselves, it will undoubtedly be a needle in a haystack, but it will be different if we put it among all living beings." "Based on the number of prehistoric creatures, they are undoubtedly able to discover the most special things. In this way, there is room for cooperation." "We help them develop these areas, and we give them 40% of the harvest, and 60% to us." "They only need to provide information, and we are responsible for the action. We don't need to do anything, and we don't have to take any risks. Presumably no one will refuse?" "In this way, we can accurately find out which places have resources and which places can be developed. The efficiency is self-evident compared with the original." "Not only the prehistoric plane, but in the future, in the future, we can even put this model in all the heavens and all walks of life. This is the foundation of the Spring Lord clan!" Seeing everyone's doubts, Zu Long didn't play tricks or be mysterious, and directly said all his thoughts. "No wonder you let the clansmen and the clans under your command scatter to every corner of the prehistoric wilderness. It turned out to be the reason, it turned out...that's it!" "Wonderful!" "Great goodness!" "That's a great idea!!!" "How inefficient it is for us to search for resources by ourselves. It would be different if we could directly know where the resources are. Although some resources will be lost, it can greatly shorten and save our time. The benefits generated by this are completely great. Countless times!" "The sea, land and air are under our control, completely covering all aspects, and no one else can imitate them. In this way, we can not only firmly grasp the resources of the entire prehistoric area, but also use the prehistoric area as a springboard. In the future, we may not be able to meddle The whole heavens and worlds!" Zhulong suddenly realized, his eyes became brighter and his voice became more and more excited after speaking. Not to mention the entire prehistoric resources, that's a bit exaggerated, after all special circumstances have to be considered, but 80% of the resources must be there, 60% of the prehistoric 80% resources are obtained by them, how terrifying it is The benefits can be imagined. Don't say it's billions, tens of billions can't be beat, and the bottom line is hundreds of billions or even trillions. Just thinking about it makes people feel trembling, okay? The most important thing is that this thing can't be reproduced or copied by others, it's completely a monopoly, it's a complete monopoly!!! (bdai) What, there are too many demon clans?

useless! The dragon, phoenix, and Qilin tribes are the unashamed kings of the sea, land, and air. In terms of proficiency and proficiency, how can the monster tribe compare? The answer is self-evident. At most, they are just eating their leftovers, which is harmless at all. "This method is good. Dao brother is worthy of being a Dao brother. His talent and wisdom are completely above me and Zu Feng. This kind of method seems simple, but it is so profound that it is hard to think of." "We can do the business of ordinary creatures, even the business of giants such as Sanqing, we can also do business, just like Styx, he developed the blood sea, and we can help him develop it." "In this way, it saves him a lot of time. Although he earns more by developing it himself, it takes more time. It's better to get it as soon as possible." "For another example, if Nuwa and the others find some resources and are lazy to do it themselves, wouldn't we be able to make use of it? It is perfect for our three clans Zu Qilin said with emotion. "Then announce to Honghuang, officially, start!" Zulong said with a smile. Hongmeng Palace, in the training room. buzz!!! All kinds of mysterious silence, many visions dissipate, endless great light flashes away, and the seemingly Tao is born and shattered. The fairy rhyme evolves and condenses. In an instant, everything recedes like a tide." Su Luo, who has practiced for millions of years, slowly opened his eyes . "The foundation is completely solid, the power of mythology has been fully controlled, and the perception of the mythology system has a deeper understanding. Even if the next breakthrough breaks through several small realms in succession, there will no longer be any realm instability." "Everything is done, the heavens... It's time to start!" The light in his eyes bloomed and then gradually fell silent, Su Luo's mood gradually calmed down, Nan Nan said to himself with deep eyes. The layout of the heavens, it's time to start! buzz!!! Slowly raising your hand, wisps of dark colors swept across, each one seemed to contain the evolution of the root, as if it contained the extension of the original, even a single wisp was better than the birth of a plane Gradually, one after another dim light gathers, a Purple beads full of indescribable and indescribable good fortune appeared in the sky above Su Luo's palm. The main body of the Hongmeng Pearl! With a thought, Su Luo checked the amount of his remaining origin coins. "More than 34 billion, enough." "It was still a little tight at first, but thanks to the income from the main god space, the original currency has been directly replenished a little bit, and many plans can be relaxed and implemented." "I don't know how much original currency it takes to locate a plane, let's take 10 billion as the quota, even if it exceeds, it can't be too much face." "The remaining more than 20 billion yuan needs to be used to prepare for the next auction. The items needed for the next auction cannot be used easily. This auction is the first time that the Hongmeng Auction involves the heavens. It would be meaningless if the cards in the auction were low. " "If you get some extra money later, you can add a few prehistoric planes to it, but it doesn't matter."

Taking a deep breath, Su Luo thought to himself. Closing his eyes, he thought about the general situation and careful arrangements, and after confirming that everything was correct, Su Luo opened his eyes again. start! Exhaling a breath, looking at the Grand Mengzhu, Su Luo's thoughts moved, and his mind was in contact with the Grand Mengzhu. For a moment, it seemed that many authorities appeared in front of him in a hazy moment. Accompanied by Su Luo's integration of a large amount of original power into the Hongmeng Pearl, in an instant, it seemed to be sublimated to the extreme, as if it had been transformed endlessly, a majestic and brilliant light burst out from the Hongmeng Pearl Hui. The entire chaotic plane is illuminated by daylight, and every ray of light seems to contain supreme chance and good fortune. Even if the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian comprehends a little, his cultivation base will be greatly increased, so It is unimaginable to contain magic! boom!!! A loud noise that surpassed the level of reality suddenly appeared, followed by a huge purple beam of light on the surface of the Hongmeng Pearl that shot straight into the sky, as if piercing through the emptiness and shuttling in the depths of the endless void. Across the heavens and ten thousand domains, a large number of nodes are covered to write time and space. The power of the original source was crazily reduced as if burning, and at the same time, phantoms and pictures appeared one after another in Su Luo's eyes, and a lot of insights came to his heart. I can see that behind Su Luo, at some time, mist was born and filled the air, and it seems that there are phantoms of one plane after another in the midst of the wonders. buzz!!! It seems like a second, like an eternity, in an instant, all the miraculousness produced by the Hongmeng Pearl dissipates, its surface luster shrinks, and it looks like it has become ordinary again. Contains any power in general. For a long time, the chaos, mist and mist behind Su Luo gradually fell silent, and the large number of images in the depths of Su Luo's eyes disappeared. He closed his eyes and opened them again, rubbing his swollen eyebrows and temples, even with Su Luo's current level and cultivation level, he still felt a little mentally tired. It should be noted that at that moment just now, under the blessing of the Hongmeng Pearl, Su Luo's primordial spirit almost shuttled through more than billions of billions of planes. The rules and auras of different planes, as well as the pictures are all impacted and presented in Su Luo's mind. It is conceivable how huge the amount of information is. After taking a short rest and adjusting his state, Su Luo let out a breath. "10 billion original coins only captured fifteen prehistoric planes..." Sensing the number of plane coordinates he locked on, the corners of Su Luo's mouth twitched, he was speechless, and his breathing was stagnant. Fifteen planes related to the prehistoric world! On average, it cost Su Luo close to 700 million native coins to locate a plane. It is conceivable that this is a lot of money. Even if Su Luo has a lot of native coins now, he feels pained by the speed of burning money. "But fortunately, this positioning has given me a better understanding of this aspect. If I don't use some of Hongmengzhu's powers and abilities, I won't be able to know the specific situation." Rubbing between his brows, Su Luo thought to himself. [0413 fly F22900 This is a good thing that is not a good thing. After all, sometimes knowledge and information are priceless. The more things you learn, the more useful it will be for subsequent development and some planning arrangements.

Lee isn't it? "What is the origin of the earth? Is it really the source of everything like some novels say?" "Almost most of the fifteen primordial planes captured this time are very similar to the fantasy works I have seen from the earth in my previous life!" After carefully checking the information and conditions of these planes, Su Luo's pupils shrank, and a look of shock appeared on his face. Novels, film and television dramas, movies, animation, comics, etc., are fantasy works. And almost all the prehistoric planes he captured are related to it!.
