"That's really not easy. You can get the qualification to transform the dragon... I read the announcement from the Divine Court last time. Because there are too many Taoist practitioners who intend to transform the dragon in the past decade and have poor qualifications, so the qualification to transform the dragon was tightened at the beginning of the year. The descendants of ordinary dragon gentlemen have to queue up to receive it."

"Sure enough, Qingqiu State has independent indicators, we don't have to compete with the main realm of the Divine Court..."

"By the way, housing prices have risen again recently. Didn't the king say that the housing problem will be solved soon?"

"I don't know either, but I heard it's a big deal..."

Su Zhou mixed into the crowd and walked along the crowd. He could hear the noisy sound of the market. In addition to the communication between the Qingqiu people around him, he could also hear the noise in the surrounding shopping malls and markets. Between the towers and buildings, many huge projections of immortal light curtains were slowly floating in the air. On top of them were Qingqiu people who didn't know who they were, telling all kinds of news and advertisements.

"…The concentration of spiritual energy in Lianshan South area has dropped on a large scale. Local officials announced that this incident was caused by a man-in-law warrior who went into seclusion and practiced..."

"...The prototype of a large-scale typhoon appeared in the middle of the winged sea. The plate undersea volcanic eruption caused a strong seabed earthquake. Please be wary of large-scale tsunamis in coastal areas. All ships are prohibited from sailing..."

In the hustle and bustle of news, the bustling crowds communicated freely, and everything was extremely normal.

Su Zhou, with a serious expression, slowly moved forward. He came to the center of the city, a huge square, or the center of the garden monument. In the garden square in the center of the city, there are several golden portraits with extremely tall and majestic figures. Even if it is just the majesty contained in the statue, it makes people feel awe.

"There are a few immortals who I don't know, but probably very famous in that era."

He chanted the origin of the statue in a low voice. Su Zhou saw that under the statues, there were many people from Qingqiu worshiping - most of them were just passing by, but as long as they passed by, they would definitely turn to the underneath the statue and start worshiping.

After worship, they left and continued their lives.

Everything is orderly and exactly the same as it is - perhaps tens of thousands or even tens of thousands or thousands of years ago, this is how the people of Qingqiu lived.

It's exactly the same as reality.

"But I don't think so."

After whispering like this, Su Zhou suddenly raised his head, and his expressionless face temporarily high clouds.

Then, in an instant, with the violent changes in spiritual energy, the celestial phenomena began to change rapidly, and countless clouds began to converge towards the city, and the white clouds turned from white to black in a few seconds.

Boom! A thunder sound.

A heavy rain suddenly came, together with billions of irregular drops of water and the result of collision between each other.

Immediately, with this inexplicable rainfall area as the center, the whole world was slightly twisted for a moment.

The heavy rain was pouring, and Su Zhou could hear many people all over him saying, "How could there be rain?" "Did the Dragon Palace make the wrong order of rain?" In such an exclaim, all the civilians on the street who were not cultivators began to look for places to shelter and entered the building next to shelter from the rain.

For a time, the entire street became much deserted.

After the heavy rain, Su Zhou closed his eyes and began to feel the movement of the crowd around him. Soon, he opened his eyes and walked towards a small building marked "Yiyi Grocery".

There were many people from Qingqiu who were shopping in the small building before, and after the heavy rain, more people from Qingqiu chose to enter to shelter from the rain.

Logically speaking, that store should have been full and could not be squeezed, but just one second ago, Qingqiu people who were sheltering from the rain entered it.

Su Zhou said nothing, he followed the crowd, and was the last to open the store door and stepped into the grocery store.

The results were beyond expectations.

No one.

The entire grocery store was empty.

Only rows of ice-blue soul light spots are seen floating regularly in every corner of the grocery store, with all kinds of intricate information flowing on it.

After entering the grocery store, Su Zhou did not speak. He just stared at these light spots, and these light spots did not move at all.

After a while, the rain outside caused by Su Zhou stopped, and the ice-blue spots moved, floating towards the door of the grocery store, and then they transformed into many completely different Qingqiu people when they crossed the division points between the grocery store and the outside streets.

After walking out of the grocery store, the people who converted from light spots were still talking to each other. They complained about the sudden rain, complained about the inadvertent forecast of the Dragon Palace, and even a few children. They went to step on some puddles beside the road, splashing water droplets full of their legs and tails, laughing and fighting, and didn't care that they would be blamed by their mother after returning home.

Su Zhou was still expressionless when he watched such a peaceful and harmonious daily life.

He walked out of the grocery store and stood in the middle of the street that became crowded again.

"Here you come."

A whisper, after a moment, Su Zhou sensed that a huge will was projecting from a very distant place, focusing his attention on this wrong area where a ‘bug’ appeared.

At this moment, the lights in the whole city began to dim one by one, like candles blown out by the wind. The crowds who were originally moving and talking suddenly stopped all the movements in their hands. They opened their mouths, solidifying in place like time stopped.

The wind stopped, the water droplets stopped falling, and the vendors who were barbecuing on the roadside stopped the flames in their ovens when Mars exploded, and all the practitioners and shuttles flying in the air stopped working, extinguishing the light of the floating lights above.

The world quickly became quiet and dark, as if dusk had arrived.

Above the sky, a giant ice-blue eye is gradually taking shape. It looks at the city, then looks to the center of the street, and is also raising its head toward Su Zhou.

Then, in the city, all the Qingqiu people had faint blue lights in their eyes. In the whole world, all the Qingqiu people turned their heads together at the same time, staring silently at Su Zhou standing in the center of the street with the giant eyes in the sky.

Such a scene is like a nightmare.

"really."

But Su Zhou was not afraid at all. He looked at the giant eyes in the sky, and then said lightly: "Does the demon imitate humans, is it fun to play houses?"

【Super boundary hazardous individuals.】

The giant eye did not respond, but just a word without emotion everywhere: [Forced expulsion from the 'Six Path World'.]

In an instant, the ice-blue light in the eyes of all Qingqiu people flashed, and the dream turned into nothingness in the light.

Just before the entire world turned into nothingness, Su Zhou, who was forcibly expelled, could vaguely see that the dream world he was in was just a small part of the six continuous cycles of reincarnation, and even more huge "dream".

The six paths are rotating.

Reality, Qingqiu Star, the spiritual tower in the southwest town.

Su Zhou turned back from the huge soul's collective dream, and everything that happened in the dream world was in reality for only a moment - at least not more than ten seconds.

"How is it, Minister?"

Tang Yuan asked worriedly that Su Zhou always acted like this, making it too late to even dissuade him: "What have you discovered from these demonic veins?"

He was actually a little blamed in his heart. After all, such active connections do not know the source, and they are also derived from the spiritual power veins of the demons. What if they are invaded by the demons? Without Su Zhou, how could they survive the attack of the Qingqiu demons?

Although Tang Yuan’s confidence in Su Zhou, he felt that Su Zhou would definitely not be eroded by the demons, but what should be worried about is still to worry about.

"A group of demons play houses in dreams. Who knows why, they are imitating the civilization of Qingqiu people - damn, I think that is just a small part of the dream, and its complete body is larger than I thought."

Su Zhou let go of his hand holding the ice blue spiritual power veins, then took a step back, shaking his head. Just now, he was kicked out of the dream by the collective will of the demon. Faced with the existence of the terrifyingly high soul power, even Su Zhou could not say that his soul was intact.

At least it takes a few seconds to recover.

Regarding Tang Yuan’s question, Su Zhou took a few deep breaths, and said with an extremely depressing tone: “At first, I thought it was these demons who imprisoned the souls of the Qingqiu people and allowed the Qingqiu people to live in their dreams… but in fact it was not.”

"The Qingqiu people are essentially all 'evil spirits' that have been infected by the demons - but they imitate the Qingqiu people and are still living, growing, and dying in that world..."

Philosophical zombies.

Su Zhou didn't know why, this word suddenly popped up in his heart.

A monster has the same appearance and physiological structure as ordinary people. It can communicate with people, laugh and scold, it will laugh when it sees interesting things, cry when it sees sad things, eat when it is hungry, drink water when it is thirsty, and feel pain when it is injured, and be jealous and love.

It manifests exactly the same as a human being—except that it has no self-will.

Everything is imitation, and it is like "how should humans react when encountering this situation?" It is like the feedback from mechanical programs, without any thoughts, just a simple feedback expression of external impressions. Philosophical zombies imitate humans' every move, but there is no thought or thought in their hearts.

The Qingqiu World imitated by the demon in the dream world gives Su Zhou this feeling.

A mechanical, completely dominated, without any vitality, any redundant possibility.

"Wait, does this have anything to do with the 'promoter of fate'?"

Thinking of this, Su Zhou in the Spirit-Stopping Tower was suddenly stunned.

In connection with the various supernatural elements that the opponent had displayed when fighting against the demon before, and related to the "Six Paths of Reincarnation", a guess suddenly popped up in his heart: "The virtual world, the reincarnation of the soul... is completely simulated by the demon, and is completely dominated by the demon, and the city named "Human World·9762"..."

"The human world, humanity... the six realms of reincarnation... a six realms of reincarnation system that is completely composed of heavenly demons and is completely dominated by... "

As Su Zhou frowned and thought about these things, suddenly, the atmosphere inside the entire spiritual tower hall became solemn.

Hu—Hu—

Accompanied by the sudden roar of spiritual energy, the spiritual energy inside the spiritual tower fluctuated and pulsated, and suddenly began to stop inhaling. In the beams and pillars of the spiritual tower, the majestic spiritual energy began to flow backwards towards the cultivation tanks and the Qingqiu people in it!

"What's going on?!" "Be careful, the situation has changed!"

Immediately, amid the exclamation and warning of Gu Zechuan and Tang Yuan's unknown exclamation, all the Qingqiu people soaked in the jar opened their eyes and turned to look in the direction where the three of them were.

In the hundreds of thousands of pairs of cold pupils, an ice-blue light flashed without a trace of emotion.

【Hazardous target - elimination.】

【Hazardous target - elimination.】

【Hazardous target - elimination.】

A uniform sound rang in the culture tank. Then, all the solutions in the culture tank began to fade away. With the backflow and activation of the spiritual energy of the Spirit Tower, Qingqiu people, or the "Demons", all smashed the transparent shell of the culture tank, and then charged towards the three of them without fear of death.

Then, they were shattered by the sudden surging spiritual power raised around Su Zhou and turned into blood rain all over the sky.

"snort."

Su Zhou, who had already pulled out the spear of the wisdom tree, snorted coldly. Facing the many demons who were still rushing towards him, he raised his spear and paused towards the ground. Suddenly, countless fragments and stones on the floor floated up. After a loud bang, the huge purple spiritual power turned into a shock wave and burst out, shattering all the culture tanks in the entire hall, causing countless light red culture solutions and blood to tremble and splash.

At this time, Su Zhou's whole body was wrapped in almost substantial spiritual power, and the power to command the peak was completely released. After protecting Tang Yuan and Gu Zechuan, he pressed the atmosphere unscrupulously, causing the air to appear violently ripples like waves. It was like an insurmountable barrier, shattering everything around him.

But there are still demons that can do it - a demon with the mid-level power of the commanding level, carrying the gloomy and cold spiritual energy, was the first to break through Su Zhou's possessed spiritual energy blockade. Its original body was a seven-tailed heavenly fox, holding a long sword made of spine bones in his hand, with a crooked twisted rune engraved on it, and then aimed at Su Zhou and stabbed it with a sword!

Although this "Breaking the Sword of Suffering and Destroying the Suffering" from the great supernatural power "Mingluo Hell" seems to be evil, it is actually a first-class method of the right way. If you cut it out with one sword, you can experience the great horrors of "death", "skeleton scattering", and "soul scattering". If you are killed, if you cannot realize the Tao and destruction and obtain great freedom, you will suffer forever and be unable to be liberated.
