Chapter 284: Divine Tribulation, Goodbye, Old Friend
Chapter 284 Divine Tribulation in China, Seeing Old Friends Again
Allowing the clone to continue searching for various spiritual materials in the Tai Cang Realm, the first thing Jiang Xuan did after gathering most of his consciousness back to his true body was to leave the Hedao state.
Just when he was planning to give the Moon Tree Star Vine to the Innate Star Tree after the harvest, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Why is China's Thunder Avenue so active?"
"Also, Tai Cang has been destroyed, and the Shadow Realm has been defeated, but why is it that the calamity energy in China is not less, but more so?"
While his thoughts were spinning, Jiang Xuan suddenly appeared in the sky above Sixi County.
Then the first thing that caught his eyelids was a white thunder that penetrated the sky and the earth.
Feeling the calamity contained in the divine thunder, a hint of realization suddenly flashed in Jiang Xuan's eyes.
"Heavenly tribulation?"
Looking at the young monk in Sixi Taoist Temple who was struck by lightning when he first entered Taoism, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but rubbed his brows in distress.
"How could a natural disaster suddenly strike China?"
Standing at a high altitude and using his pupil technique to look far into the distance, Jiang Xuan then discovered the scene on Sixi Taoist Temple. It was no accident.
Nowadays, there are tens of billions of people in China, and with the supply of a large amount of resources, almost every moment, mortals become monks through practice, or monks make breakthroughs and are promoted.
But the breakthrough that used to be celebrated by most of the shadows appearing in heaven and earth is now about to experience a thunder tribulation.
Moreover, the power of thunder tribulations varies in size.
Just looking at the thunder tribulations in the same realm, military cultivators have the least powerful thunder tribulations, Confucianism cultivators are above them, and martial arts cultivators are above them. Dao cultivators are above martial arts cultivators, side sect cultivators are more powerful than Tao cultivators, and demon cultivators and evil cultivators are more powerful than thunder tribulations.
The most prosperous.
In addition, let’s take Taoism as an example.
Even if monks of the same path and realm break through, the power of the thunder tribulation will be greater or less.
"Well, the power of thunder tribulation has nothing to do with the combat power of the same realm, but does it have something to do with merit?"
"The more merit you have, the smaller the thunder disaster will be. On the contrary, the thunder disaster will be more severe."
"It's like Shen Xuzi. The thunder calamity he endured is said to be a calamity, but it is better to say it was an opportunity."
After thinking about it, he came to the wall of Jersey County. Jiang Xuan casually touched Shen Xing'er's forehead:
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to Shen Xuzi."
Shen Xinger, who was looking worried, was stunned when she heard this, and then looked at Jiang Xuan with surprise:
"Brother Daoxuan, when did you come back? Is Brother Shenxu really okay?"
"Then why was he struck by lightning?"
"Old people often say that only those who do something harmful to nature will be struck by lightning."
"Brother Shenxu has done so many good things, why did he get struck by lightning?"
After Shen Xinger finished speaking, Qujiu Lang also looked over curiously.
Not long ago, Shen Xuzi, who was drinking with him, said with a surprised look on his face that he was about to break through and that he also needed to survive the thunder tribulation, but this scared him quite a bit.
However, after Shen Xuzi began to go through the thunder tribulation, he found that Shen Xuzi's aura was not only stable but also gradually rising during the tribulation, so he let go of his worries.
Now if Jiang Xuan can still solve his doubts, that would be the best.
Sensing Qujiu Lang's curious gaze, Jiang Xuan first nodded to him as a greeting, and then cast his gaze on Shen Xuzi, who was still going through the thunder tribulation in mid-air. He considered his words before speaking:
"It has something to do with heaven and earth."
"All things are created to nourish people, and people have nothing to repay to heaven."
"Over time, the Avenue of Heaven and Earth has changed."
"It coincided with the war between Shenzhou and Taicang, and the two worlds' avenues conflicted, which led to the birth of the Heavenly Tribulation Avenue."
"From now on, if a monk wants to break through, he must survive a tribulation."
"After a calamity, you will gain great freedom, and you will be rewarded by heaven and earth."
"If you can't pass, you'll probably have to die."
After watching the thunder catastrophe in mid-air, a golden light fell from the sky and shone on Shen Xuzi, wrapping him into a large milky white cocoon. Jiang Xuan made his final conclusion:
"In short, this heavenly calamity is both calamity and fate."
After he finished speaking, he touched the little fox on his shoulder again.
The above statement is almost half true and half false.
From now on, monks need to go through tribulations to advance. This is true.
But the reason why the Heavenly Tribulation Avenue was born was not because of the conflict between the two realms of the Avenue, but because of the Demonic Avenue.
The great road is something that affects the whole body.
For example, the Avenue of Reincarnation and the Avenue of Merit were born after Jiang Xuan opened up reincarnation before.
All good and evil deeds during life have merit, merit will affect reincarnation, and reincarnation is related to the afterlife.
All in all, when the road changes, it will appear in some form.
This was the case when he opened up two avenues before, and it was also the case when the Demonic Avenue in China swallowed up the alien demonic paths sent in by the demons.
If I don't tell these things, I'm afraid that Qu Jiulang and others will think too much.
"I just don't know what the logic of this avenue's evolution is."
"Why is it that after the benefits of the Dao of Demons have been gained, the Dao of Tribulation has changed the most."
"In the past, only monks causing great damage to the world of China would trigger heavenly tribulations. From now on, heavenly tribulations have become the norm."
"Could it be that after the improvement of the Heavenly Dao's fear of demons, it affects the good and evil in the hearts of the world, causing the world's evil thoughts to increase, thus damaging China."
"In the end, the way of heaven optimized the path of calamity, created the calamity, and put a lock on the human heart?"
Jiang Xuan's mind was spinning all over. After hearing Jiang Xuan's words, Qujiu Lang thought about it and couldn't help but say:
"In other words, from now on, natural disasters will become the norm?"
Turning to look at Qujiu Lang, Jiang Xuan nodded immediately, "That's true."
"From now on, if a monk has insufficient foundation, even if he is promoted by chance, he may not be able to survive the catastrophe."
"And those who like to do evil will probably die under the catastrophe."
Having said this, Jiang Xuan pointed to several calamity clouds of different sizes in the city:
"Those who do evil may be able to deceive others, but they cannot deceive heaven."
After hearing these words, Qujiu Lang fell into thinking again. Shen Xinger, who was heartless, pulled the corner of Jiang Xuan's clothes:
"When can Brother Daoxuan and Brother Shenxu come back?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xuan pointed to the big cocoon that was gradually cracking in the sky, "Isn't it coming out right now?"
After catching up with two old friends at Qujia Winery, Jiang Xuan said goodbye to Shen Xuzi, Shen Xing'er, and Qujiu Lang until dawn the next day, and returned to Zhushan.
As soon as he returned to Zhushan, he heard the sound of snow on the mountain:
"Ms. sir, you are back."
Looking at Lian Shanxue, whose face was a little red, with a surprised look on his face, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt a little frightened in his heart, "Why did you suddenly call me husband-in-law?"
Lian Shanxue tugged at the corner of her clothes shyly:
"I see that Mr. Xue always calls Xiaowen like this, so I just want to try calling you like this."
Seeing her look like this, Jiang Xuan also felt a hint of interest in his heart, "Then how do you feel when you shout like this?"
"You have to respond first, and then call me ma'am."
Seeing Lian Shanxue's shy and serious expression, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but hold her in his arms, "Lady, how do you feel now?"
“It feels pretty good.”
After scratching Lian Shanxue's little nose, Jiang Xuan threw the little fox away from his shoulders, hugged Lian Shanxue and entered the bamboo house.
When we go to Wushan together to see the clouds and rain, we don’t care where it is frosty.
When Jiang Xuan walked out of the bamboo house again, he raised his head and glanced at the land of China, and found that the calamity of China had dissipated somewhat.
"Whether it was in my previous life or this life, I have heard that there are calamities in the world."
"The cause of calamity may be due to oneself, or it may be due to outside world."
"In short, when the aura of calamity permeates the air, it is the day when the great calamity will come."
"Now, by consuming the heaven and earth calamity energy through the monks' heavenly calamity, can we delay the coming of the great calamity, or even make it disappear invisible?"
Reaching out to take out a wisp of calamity energy, Jiang Xuan shook his head again, "There are many legends that are unreliable."
"I can use this calamity energy, not to mention those ancient powers?"
Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan smiled again in his heart, "Maybe I am not weaker than those ancient powers now?"
After sighing with emotion, he took back those clones who were searching for spiritual mines in Tai Cang Realm.
Monks are strong everywhere.
It took Jiang Xuan seven days to go to Wushan Yunyu together.
This is because he doesn't want to continue, otherwise he can continue forever.
Ignore this matter.
Jiang Xuan took the clone back. At that time, he had already looted all the spiritual materials in the Tai Cang Realm.
As for why you only searched for one copy?
One is because there is no use if there are too many, and the other is because the spirit mine is right there.
He can definitely let his heavenly soldiers and ghost generals go mining.
Glancing at the various spiritual materials in Qiankun Tian in his sleeves, he thought for a moment and then took out a large amount of thunder attribute materials, refined them a little, and engraved Yunlu Taoist text on them to turn them into a formation base.
Then we started to set up the formation.
After a while, the formation was completed. Jiang Xuan threw an ordinary egg into the formation and then activated the Avenue of Calamity, summoning a heavenly calamity that could kill the Six Ordinary Realms.
As the silent thunder flashed, the egg thrown into the formation by Jiang Xuan also disappeared without a trace.
Rubbing the bridge of his nose, Jiang Xuan had to admit that he was still arrogant.
"The strength of the tribulation thunder has been reduced by 99% due to the formation, but after all, it is a tribulation thunder that can kill the six realms. It is extremely easy to split an ordinary egg into fly ash."
"But the eggs are gone and gone, but the purpose has been achieved."
"The formation can indeed eliminate thunder disasters."
"In addition, you can even use formations to gather the power of thunder and tribulation and turn it into your own use."
"But for me, it's a bit unnecessary."
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Xuan formed a starlight paper crane and let it find Tian Qing with the formation method.
This formation was useless to him, but it was still of great use to the Chinese monks.
It is impossible for him to help the Chinese monks to overcome the tribulation for free, but there is no problem in spreading the method to cope with the tribulation and letting the monks form their own formations to overcome the tribulation.
As for whether other monks can deploy the formation?
Then it has nothing to do with Jiang Xuan.
Everyone has his own opportunities, and he cannot be the nanny of a monk.
At most, he can be a guide, leading all the Chinese people to the path of cultivation, and then giving them a relatively fair cultivation environment.
But to what extent the monks can practice, and whether they will die on the way, is not within his scope of consideration.
If you are afraid of death, there is no need to practice.
After spreading the formation method, Jiang Xuan rode another cloud and slowly arrived at the gate of Shenxiao Mountain.
"Dingling bell~"
As soon as he entered the mountain gate, Jiang Xuan heard a bell ringing from afar.
Looking around, he could see that the smaller innate star tree on the top of the mountain was swaying its branches to welcome his arrival?
The clouds descended and landed next to the innate star tree. He gestured to the star tree, which was only one meter high, and he couldn't help but laugh:
"Other trees, such as the phoenix-blood sycamore tree I planted in Heaven, grow taller and taller."
"But you are fine, why do you keep going back as you grow older?"
"In a few tens or hundreds of years, will you have to grow into a seed?"
The star tree cannot speak, it just sways its branches and exudes an angry mood.
It's like it's saying, "Do you think I want it? If you hadn't taken out so much of my essence, would I have grown smaller and smaller?"
Sitting cross-legged next to the Star Divine Tree, Jiang Xuan patted it and took out the Yuechen Ancient Tree and the Star Divine Vine.
"You are the innate star tree, which nourishes the source of stars."
"The two spiritual seeds I found from the outside are not bad either. Do you want them?"
As Jiang Xuan finished speaking, the Star Sacred Tree curiously stretched out one of its branches, lightly touching the Moon Tree and Star Vine, and then it swayed even more cheerfully.
"Want to take in a younger brother?"
Patting the trunk of the Star Sacred Tree again, Jiang Xuan found that although he hadn't seen him for a while, the tree's body was much smaller, but its spiritual wisdom had been greatly improved.
"Okay, then I'll leave those two to you."
After finishing his words, Jiang Xuan pointed at the Moon Tree and Star Vine again, releasing the restrictions placed on them by the Xingyue clan.
Then, without any action on his part, wisps of starlight overflowed from the Star Sacred Tree and fell on the Moon Tree Star Vine.
Not long after, the moon tree shrank to ten centimeters under the influence of starlight.
The moon tree has shrunk, and so has the star vine that grows on it.
It was funny to watch the Star Sacred Tree plant the shrunken Moon Tree Star Vine under its canopy, and then condense a fruit containing the innate star power and hand it to him.
Jiang Xuan found that this guy was getting more and more interesting.
"Since you accepted them, remember to take good care of them."
Taking the fruit casually, Jiang Xuan turned to look at the person coming to the side:
"Is it your turn to guard the mountain gate this year?"
The visitor was none other than Sun Renqiu, the eldest disciple of Zhao Mingwei, the second disciple of his great uncle Li Shouxian.
The reason for guarding the mountain gate is that with the completion of the construction of the Shenxiao Mountain Gate in the earthly immortal world and the Shenxiao Palace in the heaven, most of the Shenxiao monks have moved to these two places.
The Shenxiao Mountain Gate located in the land of China has become the ancestral land of Shenxiao.
In normal times, there are only one or two Shenxiao disciples guarding the ancestral land to prevent young people from sneaking up to the mountain gate without opening their eyes.
As for the Innate Star Sacred Tree, he himself was unwilling to move, and the Shenxiao monks were unwilling to force it, so they allowed it to stay on the top of the mountain.
On the other side, Sun Renqiu, who had been here for a long time, heard what Jiang Xuan said and immediately took two steps forward and saluted him:
"Uncle Junior, it's my turn this year."
Having said this, he looked curiously at the extra moon trees and star vines under the star tree:
"By the way, little uncle, what are the spiritual trees and spiritual vines you sent? How could the Star Sacred Tree plant them under its own canopy?"
"Master and the others tried their best to plant other spiritual plants on the top of the mountain."
"The sacred tree is very exclusive."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuan threw out a futon and motioned for Sun Renqiu to sit down:
