Chapter 12242 It’s not easy (three chapters in one)
Zilan also had a glimpse of what happened in the lower realm, and knew that Ye Chen had gone through all kinds of twists and turns and hardships, and it was not easy to get to where he is today.
"Where's sister Qingyan? Didn't you bring her up with you?"
Zilan asked again.
She is the first generation grass god, the little grass god Qingyan is the second generation grass god, and Sun Yi is the third generation and the current grass god.
Ye Chen said: "After sister Qingyan was resurrected, she became the weapon spirit of the Forest Book. When the time comes in the future, I will take Sun Yi to ascend, and she will ascend with her."
Ye Chen had already resurrected the grass god Qingyan, who lived in Sun Yi's forest book and became the spirit of the forest book.
Zilan felt relieved and said, "That's good."
Ye Chen gently wiped away her tears and stayed warm with her for a while. The two reunited after a long separation. It was really a raging fire. If they weren't worried about the outside world, they would have to...
Ye Chen took a deep breath to calm down. He knew that there were more important things to deal with now, so he asked:
"Zilan, why are you here?"
Zilan said: "The Heavenly Mother's oracle told me to wait for the opportunity at the gold auction house. She said that when the time comes, someone will take me to ascend."
Having said this, she smiled slightly, looked at Ye Chen affectionately and said, "I think the time has come now, Ye Chen, you can take me to ascend."
But Ye Chen smiled bitterly and said: "I have to find a way to sneak across. I want to see the old man Xingyin, can you help introduce him?"
Zilan pondered for a moment and said: "Old Xingyin is my current master. He and the two Starry Sky Judges are in retreat, but you are the Lord of Reincarnation and the famous Ye Tiandi in the lower world. With such a big name, he is the master.
I’m sure I’d like to see you too.”
Having said this, he smiled.
Ye Chen asked: "Judge of the Starry Sky?"
Zilan said: "Well, they are powerful men under the command of Lord Golden Bird. If you want to sneak across the sky from the Gate of Heaven to the other side of the starry sky, you must go through their inspection."
"If they feel that your karma is too dangerous and will bring disaster to the Golden City, even if you have the Sun Key, they will not allow you to pass through the Gate of Heaven."
"Even if there is any hidden danger, they will directly kill it to avoid damage to the interests of the Golden City."
"I just didn't pass the test. They said that I am a disciple of the Heavenly Mother. Once I ascend, I will be targeted by the Black Queen Mother, which will bring hidden dangers to the Golden City."
"They didn't kill me. They took me in at the auction house and gave me a status comparable to that of a saint. It was also for the sake of the Heavenly Mother. They treated me well, but they would never allow me to ascend."
The Black Queen Mother is a notorious figure on the other side of the starry sky. She is the blackened product of the Heavenly Mother. The two are old enemies.
Zi Lan is a disciple of the Heavenly Mother, so she will naturally be targeted by the Black Queen Mother in every possible way. The Golden City does not allow her to ascend because she is afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.
Ye Chen frowned and said, "Then I can't ascend either?"
He is also burdened with a huge cause and effect. He has been targeted by the Black Queen Mother for a long time, and his enemies are not only the Black Queen Mother.
Even Zi Lan is not allowed to pass through the Gate of Heaven. Ye Chen wonders if he is not allowed even more?
Zilan smiled softly and said: "No, you are very capable, Ye Chen."
"You can hide the secrets of the sky and restrain your aura. Even I can't recognize you at first sight. As long as you hide the secrets of the sky and don't bring disaster to the Golden City, Teacher Xingyin and the two Starry Sky Judges will allow you to ascend.
.”
"Moreover, I can follow you to gain glory, and you can hide the secrets by following you."
"We can go to the other side of the starry sky together."
Thinking of being able to soar with Ye Chen, Zilan's eyes also showed infinite joy.
Ye Chen's mind wandered, he hugged her and kissed her again, and said softly: "Then you will take me to see the old man Xingyin?"
Zilan said: "Okay, do you want to bring your friends?"
Ye Chen said: "Naturally."
Mo Yu is from the Jiutian family, and Ye Chen has to take care of him for the sake of Cang Tianhe.
Moreover, he learned the "Nine Heavenly Minghuang Sutra" from Mo Yu. Because of this indirect kindness, Ye Chen could not leave Mo Yu alone.
At that moment, Ye Chen and Zi Lan came out of the VIP room and returned outside. When the guards, maids and Mo Yu saw the two people's faces full of spring breeze and peach blossoms, they all understood some secrets in their hearts, and their expressions were all a little dull.
"Mo Yu, let's go see Old Man Xingyin."
Ye Chen said.
"Brother Heaven..."
Mo Yu didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
Zi Lan smiled gently and said, "Come with me." After saying that, she led Ye Chen and Mo Yu to the auction house.
The two guards and the maid wanted to dissuade him, but Zi Lan raised his hand to stop him.
"Teacher is in retreat in Taixu Illusion Realm. I have sent a message to him and he is also willing to see you."
Zi Lan said as she led Ye Chen and the two of them towards a main hall.
Soon, the three of them came to a quaint hall. There was a stone platform in the center of the hall. There was a picture scroll suspended on the stone platform, projecting the scenery of thousands of miles of splendid mountains and rivers. It seemed that it was the illusion that Zilan said.
There were strong men guarding the hall all around. When they saw Zilan coming in, they all bowed and saluted, and shouted in unison: "I have seen Miss Zilan."
Ye Chen nodded in his mind. It seemed that Zilan's status in the gold auction house was quite noble, which saved him a lot of trouble.
In the image of Taixu Illusion, he saw a portal suspended in the sky. With the insight of Tianji, Ye Chen knew that this was the legendary Gate of Heaven.
The gold auction house created the Gate of Heaven. This kind of move, no matter how dark and taboo it is, is at least not upright and can be regarded as a gray area.
On the other side of the starry sky, there are many forces that choose to turn a blind eye to the existence of the Gold Auction House and the Gate of Heaven. The Gold Auction House is also very low-key, and the Gate of Heaven is arranged in an illusion, trying not to touch the cause and effect.
, not to offend outside forces.
"We're here, let's go in."
Zilan's body flashed and she took the lead to escape into the illusion of Taixu.
Ye Chen and Mo Yu looked at each other, nodded, and followed suit.
After entering the illusion of Taixu, Ye Chen felt a spinning dream. When the spinning subsided, he opened his eyes and saw that the world in front of him was as magnificent as a dream, with rainbows across the sky, colorful flowers and rain, and the sound of nature echoing everywhere.
In the high sky, there is a huge and bright portal suspended. On the portal is engraved a totem of a scorching sun. In the scorching sun, another totem of a golden roc is engraved. The golden bird is actually alive, slowly hovering on the portal.
Slowly circling.
Ye Chen was surprised to see it, and from the portal, he vaguely caught the remaining auras of Emperor Yuan Tian and Ancestor Nightmare.
It seems that Emperor Yuan Tian and Ancestor Nightmare sneaked to the other side of the starry sky through this door. This door is the "Gate to Heaven".
Zi Lan took Ye Chen and Mo Yu for a while and came to a mountain below the Gate of Heaven and shouted:
"Teacher, we are here."
I saw three figures as big as the sun and moon appearing in the deep mountain peaks at the foot of the forest.
There is a person in the middle, wearing a robe of stars, with white beard and hair, and bright eyes. He is the old man Xingyin.
To his left and right, sitting cross-legged on each side was a man in black, as thick and deep as a mountain, wearing a mask. The eyes behind the mask were as sharp as swords. He must be the two judges of the starry sky.
"Lord of Reincarnation, I've heard your name for a long time. Your method of concealing secrets is really superb. I can't even tell your identity at all."
Old Man Xingyin stared at Ye Chen and was immediately amazed when he saw that the legendary Lord of Reincarnation had such an ordinary appearance.
"My dear, Ye Chen, I have met senior Xingyin."
Ye Chen bowed and saluted. His aura was so hidden that even some top experts could not see through his identity.
He was penetrated by Lord Mingsha before. It seems that it was because of the residual light of the great master that he was captured by Lord Mingsha. The latter had clues and then recognized Ye Chen.
Old man Xingyin nodded and said: "You want to take Zilan to ascend, and this one..." His eyes fell on Mo Yu.
Mo Yu hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "My name is Mo Yu. I want to meet the old senior. I heard that the old senior is proficient in the law of destiny. I want to see the old senior. Firstly, I want to donate the Ji Dao Kung Fu and two Sun Keys. Secondly, I want to ask him to
Senior took action and gained insight into my past."
"My memory of the past is completely blank. Only the old-timers can save me."
Old Man Xingyin frowned. He had been in seclusion all year round and did not want to be tainted by external causes and effects. But as soon as Mo Yu opened his mouth, he asked him to deduce his destiny. He was quite unhappy in his heart.
"I was born in the Destiny Judgment Hall, and I do know some secrets of destiny deduction, but how can I be easily contaminated by your cause and effect?"
Old man Xingyin wanted to politely refuse again, so he tried to be as calm as possible. This was for Ye Chen's sake. If it was an ordinary person asking for help, he would have kicked him out long ago.
Ye Chen's heart moved and he said: "So the old man is actually a member of the Destiny Judgment Hall? I have something that I want to show the old man."
He wanted to take out the little destiny sword given by Ji Siqing, but unexpectedly, old man Xingyin seemed to have seen a ghost. He seemed to know what Ye Chen wanted to take out. He shook his head hurriedly and waved his hands repeatedly:
"No, no, no! Lord of Reincarnation, I have been expelled from the Destiny Judgment Palace a long time ago. I am a traitor who has been accused by thousands of people and reviled by thousands of people. I have nothing to do with the Destiny Judgment Palace anymore. If you have anything, you don't need to give it to me.
Take a look."
Ye Chen felt curious when he saw old man Xingyin looking like he was facing a formidable enemy.
This old man Xingyin, what happened in the past?
Old man Xingyin said to Mo Yu again: "I have been expelled from the Destiny Judgment Hall a long time ago. Those kinds of spells based on the laws of destiny will never be used easily in ordinary times."
"My little friend, if you want to figure out your past, I hope you can hire someone else."
Mo Yu said anxiously: "Old senior, I have an extremely high-grade Kung Fu that I can offer to you. I beg you to be merciful and give me some guidance to deduce my past."
"I really want to know who I am."
Old man Xingyin's heart moved, and he said: "A top-grade Kung Fu in the extreme realm? Take it out and have a look."
The exercises on the other side of the starry sky are divided into three levels: Wu Dao, Heavenly Dao, and Ji Dao. The high-grade exercises of Ji Dao can be said to be the best of the best, the top-level exercises.
Even the old man Xingyin was greatly moved by the extremely high-grade skills.
Mo Yu pointed at his head and said: "This skill is engraved in my brain. Old senior, there should be some big formations in your gold auction house that can refine the skill in my mind, right?"
"
The gold auction house itself has many refining formations. Warriors who fight in the golden city often do not refine the body themselves after killing their opponents, but take it to the auction house for refining. The Dao crystals refined in this way are even more
for purity.
The world beyond the starry sky is so cruel. Human lives are nothing but resources, materials for refining Taoist crystals.
Mo Yu thought that relying on those large formations, he should be able to refine the skills in his mind.
Old Man Xingyin pondered for a moment, stretched out his hand and released a ray of golden light, covering Mo Yu's body, as if to gain insight.
"puff!"
After a while, old man Xingyin's expression suddenly changed drastically, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body collapsed.
"teacher!"
Zi Lan was shocked when she saw this sudden change.
The Starry Sky Judges around Old Man Xingyin hurriedly supported him and sent their spiritual energy to him. They were all very surprised and wondered why Old Man Xingyin suddenly vomited blood.
Ye Chen and Mo Yu also looked at this scene in surprise.
Old man Xingyin looked gray and stared at Mo Yu, saying: "Your brain... your brain..."
Mo Yu felt uneasy and said, "Old senior, how are you?"
He was afraid that the skills engraved in his brain had already hurt the old man Xingyin.
After all, the ultimate high-level skills are no small matter.
Old man Xingyin took a deep breath, adjusted his breath slightly, and asked: "Who are your parents?"
Mo Yu was stunned and said: "I don't know."
Old man Xingyin frowned and asked again: "Who passed on the "Nine Heavenly Minghuang Sutra" in your mind to you?"
Mo Yu said: "I don't know, I was born with it."
Old man Xingyin fell silent, frowning and thinking.
Ye Chen looked at the appearance of old man Xingyin and thought to himself: "He peeked into Mo Yu's brain, and presumably he also saw Mo Yu's past."
Mo Yu's past must have been so shocking that it actually made old man Xingyin so excited that he vomited blood.
After being silent for a long time, Old Man Xingyin said to Mo Yu: "Little friend, I can't let you pass through the Gate of Heaven."
Mo Yu said in shock: "Why?"
Old man Xingyin shook his head and said, "Because, I don't want to kill you."
Mo Yu said: "Old senior, tell me, what is my past like?"
"If you don't want to tell me, then let me pass, and I will go back to the other side of the starry sky to search for you!"
Old man Xingyin said: "Do you have the sun key?"
Mo Yu said: "No...but I do..."
Old man Xingyin shook his head and said: "You cannot refine the skills in your mind. Once you refine them, you will die immediately."
Mo Yu was stunned for a moment. He had already understood some of the secrets of the "Nine Heavenly Minghuang Sutra" and had stepped into the threshold, but he could not write it out.
Because the high-level exercises of the extreme realm involve very profound laws and trajectories. Mo Yu can only observe and comprehend such a level of law and trajectories, but he will never be able to reproduce them himself.
Only the supreme masters in the realm of heaven can reproduce such a level of trajectory.
In other words, if Mo Yu doesn't refine the skills in his mind, he won't be able to write them out. Even if he wants to contribute the skills, he won't be able to do it.
"Go back and completely forget the past. It will be a great blessing for you."
Old man Xingyin directly issued an eviction order.
Mo Yu stood there blankly, but he was at a loss.
Old man Xingyin ignored him and said to Zilan: "Zilan, take out your sun key."
Zilan said: "Yes." Then she took out two sun keys and said softly to Ye Chen,
"I have already prepared the tokens needed for passage, Ye Chen, we can go to the other side of the starry sky together."
Ye Chen looked at the two Sun Keys in Zi Lan's hands. They were two stone golden keys. With the Sun Keys, he could pass through the Gate of Heaven and go to the other side of the starry sky.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen felt excited, but seeing Mo Yu's devastated look, he couldn't bear it.
Old Man Xingyin said: "Lord of Reincarnation, take good care of Zilan. You have extremely good methods of hiding secrets. Just protect her and don't let her secrets leak out."
"When you pass through the Gate of Heaven and are transported to the Wangchuan River on the other side of the starry sky, you only need to soak a stick of incense in the Wangchuan River for a while, and the breath of your past life will be gone. Your breath will blend with the other side of the starry sky, and there will be no need to cover it up in the future.
It’s a secret, the Black Queen Mother won’t find you.”
"The risk in this is just the time of burning the incense. As long as we can avoid the Black Queen Mother's detection, we will be safe in the future. If we can't avoid it, there will be disaster, and our Golden City will also be implicated.
"
Zi Lan was overjoyed, but also worried and asked: "Teacher, I heard that if soaked in the Wangchuan River for too long, a person's flesh, blood, spirit, soul, laws, and everything will be washed away.
In the end, a person will become a fish in the Wangchuan River, and may even be caught and eaten by others. The end will be very miserable, is it true?"
The old man Xingyin said: "Indeed, the Wangchuan River is the most sacred river on the other side of the starry sky. This river has a heaven-defying purification function and can wash away all the past. Back then, the Heavenly Mother washed away her own sins in the Wangchuan River.
According to the rules of magic, I came ashore smoothly."
"But the heaven-defying purifying effect of the Wangchuan River is indeed possible to dissolve everything in the human body, wash the person into nothingness, and then turn the person into a fish."
"Every year, many people who sneak from the Gate of Heaven to the other side of the starry sky do not have time to get ashore, and are washed into nothingness by the River of Forgetfulness, and finally turn into fish and be eaten by others."
"After you pass through the Gate of Heaven, you must seize the time. Just soak in the Wangchuan River for a stick of incense. After washing away the smell of the past, you must climb ashore immediately. Otherwise, the laws will be washed away, distorted, and alienated.
If you become a fish, it will be too late to regret it."
Ye Chen secretly paid attention and said:
"Okay, senior, don't worry, I will be careful and I will protect myself and Zilan."
Old Man Xingyin hummed and said: "You must hold the Sun Key in your hands. This Sun Key is not only a token, but also an amulet given by Lord Golden Bird. With the protection of the Sun Key, after you teleport to the Wangchuan River,
, facing the great danger in the Wangchuan River, there is still a way to save one's life."
The Gate of Heaven leads directly to the other side of the starry sky, and what is connected behind the gate is the most famous Wangchuan River on the other side of the starry sky.
There are numerous dangers in the Wangchuan River, and monsters are rampant. Only with the protection of the Sun Key can we ensure that everything is safe and we can get ashore smoothly.
Ye Chen said: "Yes."
Mo Yu on the side was sad and aggrieved: "What about me?"
