Chapter 32: Fugue

At this moment, the five fingers of the White Bone Throne were stretched out to hold Zhang Ke in the palm of his hand.

There are three skeletons on three hundred and sixty-five pillars around the main hall, their mouths wide open, as if they are wailing.

The green flames in the mouth reflected from the skull's eyes, and thousands of green lights flickered.

Coupled with the gloomy surroundings, the stationary bull heads and horse faces, and the strange black and white costumes, Zhang Ke couldn't help but feel a little scared.

This is completely in line with my imagination of ‘underworld’!

A few minutes later, Zhang Ke, who was sitting high on the Bone Throne, gently rubbed his forehead. Surprisingly, he didn't feel the presence of the mask on his face at all.

After the [Bone Scepter], which represents the authority to control the Bone Plains, was integrated into Zhang Ke's body, some information was instilled into his mind through the scepter.

This includes information about the reasons and mission of the formation of the Bone Plains, as well as the various treasures and netherworld creatures produced here.

The biggest function of the scepter is control. All the netherworld creatures in the Bone Plains will be controlled and restrained.

At the same time, Zhang Ke also learned from it the reason why this Plain of Bones had an owner in the past but there was no trace of its existence.

Through the scepter Zhang Ke learned that once the owner of the Bone Plains dies, the Bone Plains will return to a state without an owner, and both the buildings and rule systems that once existed will disappear.

Now the Plains of Bones needs Zhang Ke to re-formulate the rules and improve the order of heaven.

Only when the Plain of Bones operates on its own and integrates into the "underworld" system of the Netherworld, can Zhang Ke truly be regarded as the Lord of the Plain of Bones.

As for the mask that contains "light and darkness", the gentle and radiant half of the face symbolizes the human world of the "Whispering Wheel Church" and is the expression of "goodness" in Zhang Ke's heart.

The dark and cold half of the face symbolizes the underworld of the 'Wheel-Wheel Church' and is the embodiment of the 'evil' in his heart.

This term "good and evil" does not refer to Zhang Ke's goodness or badness, but a manifestation of his beliefs.

Gentle, compassionate, tolerant, persistent, tough, courageous, cold...

The human heart is inherently complex and changeable. The characteristics of the Buddha and the devil are affected by the concept of moral order in the heart.

In addition to its symbolic meaning, this mask also has another function.

After it was covered on Zhang Ke's face, a special magical power was directly carved into Zhang Ke's talisman according to the rules of heaven.

'Wandering'

This is a special magical power that belongs exclusively to the ‘Netherworld’.

When a practitioner in the Azure Realm achieves the goal of becoming a spiritual being, heaven will bring down a thunder calamity, which is both a punishment and a reward.

If you can live a life of three thousand years, you will be free and happy, but if you can't live, your soul will be in vain.

When Zhang Ke offered the 'Zhi Lan Xing' to Master Yue Gui, it was a trick, and he avoided the thunder disaster.

But similarly, if his soul has not been baptized by thunder and calamity, he will have no hope of reaching a higher realm throughout his life.

When watching Zhang Ke's achievement of Yuanshen, True Lord Tianya told True Lord Yue Gui.

A person who suffers one thunder disaster can be a yin god, and a person who has suffered two thunder disasters can be a yang god.

When Zhang Ke achieved Yuanshen, he suffered three consecutive thunder tribulations, and the third time was an unheard-of purple spherical thunder tribulation.

This is something that even Zhenjun Tianya is puzzled by.

At this moment, the suffering I suffered in the past finally comes back to me at this moment.

In these heavens and realms, there are countless ways to practice.

When monks in the azure world advance to the realm of Yuanshen, the Yuanshen will be destroyed by thunder and completely merge with the body, achieving the unity of the three treasures of "jing, Qi, Shen".

It follows the path of ‘three flowers gathering at the top’, ‘five qi coming towards the yuan’, and ‘hunyuan becoming one’.

Practitioners in the Azure Realm believe that the soul and body are one and inseparable.

However, cultivation will cause the soul or body to be unilaterally strong, causing the body and soul to no longer match each other. Therefore, when you advance to the Yuan Shen level, you will use the power of thunder to fuse the body and soul into one.

The advantage of the Yuanshen method is that there will be a "three flowers" substitute, but the disadvantage is that the Yuanshen cannot leave the body from now on.

But when Zhang Ke was in the 'Misty Secret Realm', the practitioners there were practicing the 'Spiritual Root Method'.

The difference between practitioners in the azure world is that when suffering from thunder tribulation, this 'spiritual root' can derive 'Nascent Soul'.

And they would rather give up their physical body to ensure the integrity of the 'Nascent Soul'.

Because in their view, it is the mind rather than the body that determines self-existence. The soul is the foundation, and the body is like clothing and can be discarded at any time.

The advantage of this method is that the Yuanying can leave the body at any time, and even after the physical body is damaged, it can also take over the body of others.

The disadvantage is that they don't have 'Three Flowers' to replace death.

At this moment, when he received the magical power of 'Wandering' from the [Side of Light and Darkness], he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

The effect of this magical power is actually very simple. It is actually to control the soul to travel outside the body.

Anyone whose primordial spirit has experienced a thunderstorm can rely on this method to control the 'Yin Shen' to travel out of the body at night, but they cannot use magical powers.

You can enter and leave the Netherworld, but your soul must return to your body before dawn.

Otherwise, when the sun shines, only a trace of the sun's true fire can completely wipe out the 'Yin Shen'.

If the Yuan Shen has passed through two thunder tribulations and the 'Yin Shen' turns into a 'Yang Shen', the Yuan Shen can be controlled outside the body during the day. Although the Yuan Shen is still unable to use magic powers, he can stay outside for a day and a night.

At the beginning, Zhang Ke never understood why he suffered three thunder tribulations. Logically speaking, he had not done anything outrageous.

At this moment, all the suffering I had suffered was finally over.

Those who have been struck by lightning three times can not only travel day and night, but also stay outside for seven days and seven nights. The biggest change is that even the body of the soul can use magic and magical powers.

Originally, according to the cultivation system of the Azure Realm, even if the method of 'spiritual wandering' was obtained, it would be of little use.

Because the soul and the physical body have long been integrated into one body.

What Zhang Ke practices is also the Yuanshen method. The three treasures of "Jing, Qi, Shen" are integrated into one, and the Yuanshen cannot leave the body.

But after Zhang Ke saved the 'Misty Secret Realm' in the past, the merits of heaven and earth materialized into a spiritual root in his body.

Because of this spiritual root, Zhang Ke was able to practice the "mysterious light technique" that is unique in the blue world.

It is precisely because of this spiritual root that Zhang Ke was able to master the art of 'spirit travel' at this time.

It's just that this method of 'divine wandering' also has limitations.

At this time, Zhang Ke is only the True Monarch of Yuanshen in the realm of 'Three Flowers', and can only condense the 'Yin Shen' to travel.

Only when he reaches the realm of 'Five Qi' can he condense the 'Yang Shen' and go out.

Also because he was unable to condense the 'Yang Shen', even though he had experienced three thunder tribulations at the moment, he could still only go out for one night.

Zhang Ke was a little curious, as this magical power of 'divine wandering' obviously had traces of artificial setting.

Its purpose is clear at a glance, which is to use this method to enter and exit the netherworld when you are in the outside world.

I was able to leave my body due to the birth of spiritual roots due to various coincidences.

How do other practitioners in the Azure Realm obtain this method and practice it?

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Ke put this question behind him.

After communicating with the 'Bone Scepter' with his mind, he found that his vision seemed to have changed.

The entire Plain of Bones was completely presented in Zhang Ke's mind as if it had been detected by the [Xumitian Eye Array].

With a slight movement of mind, a certain area in the Plain of Bones suddenly rose up, and countless bones formed a mountain amid the sound of "rumbling".

'This...isn't this just like a sandbox game?'

After roughly understanding the function of the 'Bone Scepter', Zhang Ke slowly opened his eyes.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Ke shook his left hand, a deep gray light appeared, and a small "bone scepter" only a foot long appeared in his palm.

"Seduction, this is the auxiliary staff of the 'Bone Scepter'. I give you the right to control the Bone Plains."

Zhang Ke said, raising his hand slightly and handing the short staff to Guhun.

After Gouhun took the scepter and communicated briefly with his mind, he said:

"Master! I wonder if I can summon Fei'er. She is the body of a heavenly ghost and can perfectly command the netherworld creatures here."

Zhang Ke thought for a while and said:

"That's fine!"

He stared at the void beside him, calculated for a moment, and suddenly made a stroke in the void with his left hand.

The white bone scepter engraved on the back of the hand flashed slightly, a white line crossed the void, and a hole was suddenly opened in the space.

...

City of sunrise.

Jiuyun Zhenjun of the ‘Yuxu Palace’ on the city wall was looking into the distance in a daze.

His spiritual thoughts can cover the surrounding area for 1,200 miles, and at this time, he can clearly see what is happening in the distance.

After a while, True Lord Jiuyun sighed:

"This Yan Fei'er is really scary. There are hundreds of thousands of ghosts that suddenly broke out today, right?

But she actually swallowed up hundreds of thousands of ghosts together with that ghost child."

True Lord Qingyun on the side said:

"Yes! I heard that True Lord Ruyi has three maids. This Yan Fei'er is already so powerful. I wonder what the other two maids have?"

Suiyun Zhenjun, who was standing with Zhenjun Qingyun, said:

"Then Zhenjun Ruyi has been in the crack for more than ten days, and I don't know what he has found out?

Judging from the sudden explosion in the number of ghosts today, is there something unexpected?"

As he spoke, he looked at the three people not far away.

The expressions on the faces of these three people were extremely solemn, and their six eyes were staring at the cracks in the ground in the distance.

He is wearing a golden Taoist robe and his skin is light gold. Although he is very thin, he gives people a strong feeling. He is a disciple of the "Vajra Sect" in Qingzhou.

These three people arrived suddenly three days ago. They were supposed to enter the crack in the ground as soon as they arrived. However, after being informed by the 'Yuxu Palace' that Zhang Ke had entered the crack, they made no move at all.

For three days, the three of them stared sleeplessly into the distance, their eyes passing by Yan Feier's figure from time to time.

The names of the three people headed by Huanyunqi, who are in the Cave Heaven realm, are the first in the Yuanshen realm of the 'Vajra Sect' in terms of strength and means.

Beside him, a True Lord with light red eyebrows turned his head and glanced at True Lord Jiuyun and others.

A low voice said:

"Senior brother, what's going on with this sudden wave of ghosts?"

A trace of worry flashed in Zhenjun Yunqi's eyes.

According to the previous plan of Junior Brother Yunchi and others, fifteen days is a critical point. If everything goes well, this time the matter will be completed within the deadline.

But now the sudden wave of ghosts told him very clearly that something was definitely going on down there.

Recalling that the "Yuxu Palace" informed about the number of ordinary people who died due to the opening of the "Ghost Gate", Zhenjun Yunqi had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Two junior brothers, I'm afraid something is wrong. Please be prepared to take action."

The other two people looked serious and said yes solemnly.
