The Sixty-nine Cloud Car flew forward for more than ten thousand miles, always flying in the steaming sea air and white mist.
Apart from a boundless ocean of ice, I only occasionally saw a few icebergs and couldn't see the edge.
Later, we gradually left the cold zone. There was nothing but sky and water. Not even an iceberg could be seen, but the sea fog became thicker and thicker.
"Fellow Daoist Pang, Xuan Iceland is just ahead."
On the cloud carriage, Zhou Ruoye suddenly said something.
While he was talking, the cloud car suddenly flew out of the fog formation, and the scenery in front changed drastically.
It turns out that the sea where we came from was treacherous and the water was black. As soon as the fog came out, the color of the water changed immediately. At a glance, we saw rolling blue waves and a clear and deep water color, which was very different from where we came from.
The most surprising thing is that at the junction of the two waters, one is green and the other is black, not mixed at all, neatly, as if a boundary has been drawn.
The fog only covered the black water. After crossing the boundary, the fog shadow disappeared completely, and the clouds above were white and blue, the wind was gentle and the sun was beautiful, creating a clear and empty scene.
Looking at the endless blue waves on the horizon, two islands, one black and one white, vaguely appear.
White clouds were coming and going, and the sky was clear above and below. As they flew closer and closer, the shadow of the island also grew larger. Only then could we see that the island was shaped like a yin and yang fish. The outer periphery of the peninsula on the left was dark black, covered with golden flowers, and there was an island in the middle.
A golden tower.
The peninsula on the right is covered with snow, surrounded by palaces and covered with silvery clouds.
The cloud car flew closer, and layers of bubble-like restrictions on the island appeared, blocking Pang Yue and the others.
I saw a group of roving monks on duty flying from below and asked in a deep voice: "Visitors, please stop. This is Xuan Iceland. Please state your name and we will pass the news on your behalf."
This team of monks was led by two mid-level Daoji monks, and followed by more than ten breath-taking monks.
Zhou Ruoye glanced at Pang Yue and said first: "Zhou Ruoye from Langya Island in the East China Sea has come to pay a visit to the third young master Du Jiang."
Along the way, after communicating with Zhou Ruoye, Pang Yue learned that Hou Junsu, the lord of Xuan Iceland Island, had thirteen disciples, all of whom were called young master.
Among them, there are seven young masters whose cultivation has broken through the golden elixir. It can be seen that the strength of Xuan Iceland is not inferior to the major golden elixir families of the Demonic Talisman Sect.
When the people on the parade heard this, their expressions immediately became respectful, and they saluted, "It turns out to be Senior Zhou. Please wait here, Senior. We will inform the Third Young Master immediately."
After saying that, one of the Daoji monks flew back to the island.
Russian qing.
A golden light appeared on the island, appeared in the sky in a flash, and came to the cloud car.
In the golden light, there was a handsome young man. He had a wide robe and long sleeves, holding a jade fan. After seeing the Sixty-Nine Cloud Car, his face changed slightly, and a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then he smiled and said: "Junior Sister Zhou
, it has been a few years since the last time we said goodbye, I wonder how it will be in the near future?"
Zhou Ruoye got up and got out of the car, smiled sweetly and said, "Thanks to fellow Taoist Du, everything is fine with Ruoye."
"Let me introduce you to you. This is Pang Yue, the master of the Demon Devouring Hall of the Demon Talisman Sect in the East China Sea. His teacher is Yu Wenbi, the deputy master of the Demon Talisman Sect."
When Du Jiang heard this, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, and he hurriedly said: "It turns out to be fellow Daoist Pang, my master and my master are close friends. Du had long planned to travel to the inland sea, but unfortunately he was involved in worldly affairs and was unable to make the trip.
"
Pang Yue put away the cloud cart and said with a slight smile: "The inland sea is not as clean as this place!"
This Du Jiang's aura was so dense that he actually had the fifth level of Jindan cultivation level.
Pang Yue secretly thought to himself that the island master Hou Junsu was really good at training his disciples.
Du Jiang smiled and greeted: "Although it is clean, it is far less prosperous than the inner sea. Fellow Daoist Pang, Junior Sister Zhou, please!"
The three of them pressed down on the escape light and came to the island.
Du Jiang first settled Zhou Ruoye in the guest house, and then took Pang Yue directly to a green bamboo building in the center of Xuan Iceland.
He bowed and said in salute: "Master, here comes the disciple of Master Yuwen of the Demonic Talisman Sect."
There was silence in the building. After a long time, an old voice came from far away: "Did Yu Wenbi not come to this gathering?"
Pang Yue cupped his hands and said, "I have important family matters to deal with, and I have nothing to do, so I sent this junior over."
A voice came from inside the building, this time it seemed much closer: "Come in."
Pang Yue stepped into the bamboo building.
They saw that the furnishings in the building were extremely simple, with a ball of jade in the middle, and a skinny old man sitting there, looking like he was about to die.
The old man looked Pang Yue up and down, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and asked: "Yu Wenbi has so many magic talisman clones, why don't you come here without time?"
Pang Yue said truthfully: "This junior doesn't know."
The old man looked disappointed: "I'm afraid I won't live another hundred years. I planned to meet them, but unexpectedly..."
Have a gay relationship?
Pang Yue was startled and hurriedly put away his distracting thoughts.
The octogenarian old man in front of him is a powerful master of the Three Tribulations of the Golden Core. He has already reached the pinnacle of monks without the Yuan Shen in this world emerging.
It's a pity that my life is approaching.
Even Pang Yue could clearly sense the decay of his old age.
Pang Yue took out the scroll that Yu Wenbi had given him, presented it with both hands, and said, "Master asked me to bring this to you."
The old man reached out and took it, opened it, looked at it, and then slowly closed it.
After a moment, he sighed: "That's it."
Pang Yue was puzzled.
The old man had no interest in explaining.
For a moment, Pang Yue didn't know what to say. The old man suddenly smiled and said: "Forget it, if old ghost Yuwen can successfully overcome the tribulation this time, maybe he will be the only one among us who has the chance to attack the Yuan Dynasty."
A man of God.”
It seems that the master is undergoing a catastrophe, so he has no time to escape...
Pang Yue thought secretly in his heart.
The old man said to Pang Yue again: "Your body is shining brightly, just like a child carrying gold through the busy market. If you are not pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, then just restrain yourself a little, so as not to save your master from white-haired people giving away to black-haired people."
Pang Yue was surprised, looked around, bowed and said, "Senior, please give me some advice."
He does possess many magic weapons, and he also knows that there are people who are good at the secret technique of observing Qi and can see Qi that is difficult for ordinary monks to detect.
If it is seen by some people with bad intentions, it will indeed cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.
The old man seemed to have remembered something and said: "It seems that your master is busy overcoming the tribulation and has not had time to teach you anything."
After saying that, he flicked his finger, and a stream of light flew into Pang Yue's mind, and it immediately turned into a secret technique.
"This method can reduce the energy in your whole body. You need to be more careful when walking in the world of cultivation in the future."
The old man taught the Tao earnestly.
Pang Yue felt grateful and thanked him: "Thank you very much, Island Master. I have some elixirs that can increase your longevity. Please accept it."
I saw the old man bowing his hands and said solemnly: "I don't need this. I see that your luck in love is extremely strong and it is an ominous sign. It is better to be more vigilant."
Pang Yue thanked him again.
The old man said: "You stay here first, and when the other Taoist friends arrive, we can start the gathering again."

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
Pang Yue learned from Du Jiangkou that Yu Wenbi, Hou Junsu and two other loose cultivators traveled to the outer sea together and encountered an opportunity. From then on, they laid the path and all entered the realm of the Three Tribulations of the Golden Core.
Among the four, Hou Junsu had the highest cultivation level. He had already survived the catastrophe two hundred years ago, but he still could not take the final step to advance to the golden elixir.
Although Yu Wenbi's level is not as high as that of Hou Junsu, his combat power ranks first among the four, and his status and power are not comparable to those of the three casual cultivators.
The third person is a Buddhist cultivator, whose name is Jin Sheng. He has passed through the second golden calamity. He has built a temple on an island in the outer sea and has several disciples sitting there.
The fourth one is named Du Huan. He was once an elder of the Tianhai Sect, one of the nine sects in the East China Sea. For some reason, he went to the outer sea and became a casual cultivator.
This Du Huan is Du Jiang's biological grandfather.
It is also because of this important relationship that Du Jiang has worshiped Hou Junsu, the Lord of Xuan Iceland, as his teacher since he was a child, and he is still practicing successfully today.
Among the four, Du Huanxiu was the lowest, having only survived the Golden Core Tribulation.
There are three major spiritual objects in Xuan Iceland, all of which are extremely rare in the outside world. Although they are not as good as the hibiscus fruit in Pang Yue's hand, they are not far behind them.
Qingling Fairy Apricot can wash away the monk's magic power, remove the waste and retain the essence, making the monk's magic power extremely pure and far superior to its peers.
The Xuanyang Fire Date is a treasure of the fire element. It is a supreme treasure for those who practice the fire element technique. It can assist in the cultivation of a variety of powerful fire elements.
The same is true for the Ice Lotus and Snow Lotus Root. For those who practice the Ice Movement technique, its value is not inferior to that of the Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow.
Of course, just a piece of ice lotus and snow lotus root is far from comparable to the piece of ice marrow that Ye Bing stored in the Ice Demon Palace.
Zhou Ruoye quickly obtained two pieces of ice lotus and snow lotus root due to her relationship with the third son, Du Jiang.
But when she heard that there would be a gathering of the Four Friends of Xuan Bing in the near future, she stayed curiously.
At the same time, she had known for a long time that Pang Yue possessed the magical power of Ice Soul Divine Light, and was interested in communicating with Pang Yue. She came to Pang Yue every day to discuss the Tao and exchange cultivation experiences.
Du Jiang also has a hospitable nature. He accompanies the two of them every day, visiting the islands and tasting the delicacies of the sea. In addition, after getting acquainted with him, he is full of witty words and personable, which easily makes people like him. He soon became friends with Pang Yue.
good.
Pang Yue also learned a lot from the two of them.
Among the thirteen young masters on Xuandao Island, seven have cultivated the golden elixir, and the remaining six have reached the Daoji realm.
The thirteen young masters have all accepted many apprentices, and the apprentices have adopted many apprentices... so the island is not as deserted as imagined.
Many disciples of Xuan Bingbing came from the Inland Sea. The thirteen young masters and their disciples brought back some cultivators when they traveled to the Inland Sea.
There are also some disciples who come from some cultivation families in the outer seas or are casual cultivators, with different identities.
A few days in a hurry.
A Buddha's light flew from the sky, and within it was a purple gold alms bowl.
The purple gold alms bowl spun in the air, and a fat-headed and big-eared monk appeared and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Hou, Jin Sheng is late this time, don't blame me!"
On the Xuan Ice Mountain, Hou Junsu's old voice sounded: "Don't worry, Xiao Du hasn't come yet..."
The big-eared monk looked startled and said curiously: "That shouldn't be the case. Junior Brother Du is much closer than the poor monk."
As he said that, he stepped on the golden lotus and walked through the air, walked straight through the Xuan Iceland Formation, came to the bamboo building in the center of the island, and walked in.
Half a day later, the big-eared monk came to Pang Yue's residence again.
"I didn't expect that this time, Senior Brother Yuwen didn't come either."
The Zen master named Jin Sheng, after seeing Pang Yue, looked him up and down for a long time, and then said after a while: "Nephew, why do you have such a strong aura of calamity in your body when you have just turned three golden elixirs?"
Pang Yue did not hide anything, so he told the story of how he had been robbed by the devil Ping Taiyan of the Heavenly Demon Sect using a secret method.
Generally speaking, Jindan monks only start to contact human tribulations after the ninth revolution.
Pang Yue and Ping Taiyan are a pair that is rare in ancient and modern times.
Zen Master Jin Sheng patted his big belly and said suddenly: "I remembered that the Demon Sect did have such a secret technique that day. Their Taishi Heavenly Demon Strategy is very difficult to deal with. You have to be careful."
Pang Yue nodded in thanks.
He vaguely guessed that when Zen Masters Yu Wenbi, Hou Junsu, and Jin Sheng were listening to the teachings of the True Lord Yuanshen from ancient times in the ancient secret realm, perhaps the content of what he said was related to luck, calamity, and the like.
Otherwise, whether it was Hou Junsu or Zen Master Jin Sheng, the first thing they would do after meeting was to remind Pang Yue of the issues regarding his luck and calamity.
"Why doesn't your master come this time?"
Zen Master Jin Sheng sat leisurely in the cross-legged position under a big tree to welcome the guests, and asked Pang Yue with a smile.
Pang Yue replied: "My master is undergoing a catastrophe and has no time to escape, so I asked my nephew to come."
Zen Master Jin Sheng was startled and asked in surprise: "Didn't your master survive the catastrophe long ago?"
Pang Yue was stunned.
What's happening here?
He took out the scroll and handed it to Zen Master Jin Sheng, saying, "Master asked me to bring this to Zen Master and ask him to take a look."
Jin Sheng took the scroll, opened it, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and then slowly closed the scroll.
Pang Yue couldn't help but ask: "Zen Master, is that master going through a tribulation at this time?"
Zen Master Jin Sheng said with emotion: "Senior brother Yuwen is indeed going through a catastrophe at this time. I never thought that if we could find a way to lead the catastrophe for him, and through this catastrophe, he would be one step closer to the path to the soul."
"How to induce disaster?"
Pang Yue was puzzled.
Zen Master Jin Sheng explained: "In the life of a Golden Elixir monk, there are human tribulations, fateful tribulations, and heavenly tribulations. Only after passing these three major tribulations can the Golden Elixir be perfected, and finally the elixir will be broken. But many monks have just passed through it.
Even after three tribulations, it is difficult to break through the soul."
"This level of Yuan Shen has stumped many amazing and talented people."
Zen Master Jin Sheng smiled and said: "After your master passed through the heavenly tribulation, he found that his way forward was exhausted and there was no hope of breakthrough, so he discussed with us to deduce a method to induce the tribulation, in an attempt to use the heavenly tribulation to stimulate the power of the golden elixir.
force to make it more perfect.”
"Unexpectedly, he succeeded in deducing it."
Pang Yue nodded: "That's it."
I am worried that if there are too many heavenly tribulations, I will be struck to death by the heavenly tribulations.
But the master... was struck by the Heavenly Tribulation once, and now it was not enough, he was being struck for the second time.
"A big sect is a big sect after all, and its foundation is far beyond what we and other casual cultivators can compare with."
Zen Master Jin Sheng shook his head and smiled.
Pang Yue saw that Zen Master Jin Sheng was like a laughing Maitreya, with a kind personality and easy to get along with, so he asked many questions about the Three Tribulations of the Golden Elixir.
This day.
The two of them suddenly received a message from Hou Junsu, so they went to the bamboo tower in the center of Xuan Iceland.
Inside the Bamboo House.
Hou Junsu sat cross-legged and the seven golden elixir masters, including Du Jiang, also stood respectfully with their hands down.
Pang Yue and Zen Master Jin Sheng came in, and the seven golden elixir masters immediately saluted.
Hou Junsu's old face was full of vicissitudes of life. He said in a deep voice: "Du Jiang, it's up to you to talk about this matter."
Du Jiang came out of the queue, first saluted Hou Junsu, and then said slowly: "The fate of our ancestors has come, and now we are in danger. Please help me."
