Chapter 174: After a thousand twists and turns, the heart remains the same
Shi Xuan came back safe and sound, and made great progress in cultivation. He also brought back the karma-eliminating flower, the Nine Nether Black Bamboo Shoots, the Death Soul Stone and other objects. Naturally, all the Penglai Sect masters were very happy, and they chatted and shared interesting stories about their respective travels.
And disperse.
Zhenren Jiang began to retreat to adjust his state of mind and prepare for the third heavenly tribulation. Xie Fangwei and others continued to practice immortal magic to stabilize their realm. Shi Xuan exchanged the refining method of the Yinde statue and most of the Jiuyou Qi to the sect. Anyway,
There is quite a lot left on the body, enough to exchange for mysterious and mysterious things such as the Xuanhuang Qi of Merit and Virtue, or even more than enough.
"Wan'er, I will go to Guanghan Sect with my master later to meet with Senior Meng. First, I would like to thank her for helping to contact me and find my whereabouts over the years. Second, I would like to ask her to help me return to the sect.
Tell Mr. Xu Zhen, your master, and Master Lin Luo about the news about the sect, so as not to put them in danger due to my affairs during this period." After Shi Xuan learned about the efforts made by the sect for his own affairs over the years, Shi Xuan was very
Touched, and for Meng Nishang's help, I must come to thank her in person.
Yuan consciousness enveloped the sect at will. Shi Xuan suddenly discovered that Ming Qingyue was in the sect, and she was still a Yin god. So an idea came to her, and she calculated carefully for her, and then asked her to come to his cave later to talk about it.
.
Chu Wan'er was dressed in white, like a lotus in the water. She looked fifteen or sixteen years old, giving off a sense of purity and charm. She was walking side by side with Qing Suo in an emerald green dress behind Shi Xuan, like a pair of sisters.
After listening to Shi Xuan's words, she smiled softly and said: "Actually, before Master comes back, Wan'er is planning to go to Guanghan Sect in the next few days. Master, do you plan to go back to the cave first? Ao Gu is lazy
Long is fast asleep again. Haha, ever since Qing Suo regained most of his strength, he has been bullied miserably by Qing Suo."
Although Qingsuo didn't show his monkey face at the side, he winked at Chu Wan'er and grinned, still showing his monkey face: "Master, I'm just teasing Ao Gu, nothing too much!"
Seeing Qingsuo respecting and fearing him so much, Shi Xuan was a little surprised. When the monkey head's strength had not yet recovered, although it was still quite loyal and respectful, it was not too afraid of him. Why has there been such a big change now?
Ziyingjian, who was being warmed and recovered in Shixuan Yuanshen, seemed to sense Shixuan's surprise, and interrupted with a smile: "Qingsuo, this monkey is afraid that the second calamity of decline is coming soon, and he needs to rely on your power, sir, so
I have restrained my monkey nature and am very obedient to you."
After Zi Ying said this, Shi Xuan came to his senses. Qingsuo's third spiritual ban before the great destruction of the ancient times should be almost the same as the sacrifice. A full million years have passed. Even if he was seriously injured, the third spiritual ban
No matter how slow it is, it has been perfected for hundreds of thousands of years. After recognizing its master, even if it is not nourished and refined by itself, the decline of the Tongtian Spiritual Treasure will be faster than that of the normal Tongtian Spiritual Treasure. Therefore, its second decline is prohibited.
The decline is indeed rapid.
"Qing Suo, how long will it take for you to become the second weakest celestial being?" Shi Xuan's tone was calm, as if he was asking casually.
Qingsuo was startled, and his face immediately turned into furry: "Master, you, do you know?" Apparently he didn't expect Shi Xuan to see through his little thoughts so quickly, and then scratched his head and said: "I'm afraid,
I’m afraid that three or four thousand years of calamity is about to come.”
Shi Xuan felt a little embarrassed in his heart. He thought that when Zi Ying Jian said that the decline of calamity was coming soon, he meant that it would take a few decades. He temporarily ignored their essence. This speed is relative. Three or four thousand years is not as important as Tongtian Lingbao.
He said, just like a human monk for thirty or forty years, he gently nodded and said: "I understand, and I will help you when the time comes."
Qingsuo's monkey face suddenly beamed. He groped for a while and found a bright red fruit with a fragrant fragrance. He handed it to Shi Xuan: "Master, I found this when I went out for a walk a few years ago. Although it is not
The heaven and earth spiritual fruit can also be used to prolong life and purify the mind, and it is very delicious!" It looks like it is cherished and cherished, rather reluctant to part with it, and it looks like it is salivating. It seems that it was originally intended to be hidden and enjoyed slowly, but now it is dedicated to it reluctantly.
The master shows his loyalty.
"Keep your monkey head for yourself." Shi Xuan laughed and cursed after seeing Qing Suo's appearance. How could he compete with his own monkey for fruit?
While they were talking, the three of them had already reached the sky above Tianji Peak Shixuan Cave. Then they saw the door of the cave open. Ao Gu poked his head out and looked left and right. When he saw no other figure, he immediately jumped out and wrapped a lot of money.
It looked like he took this opportunity to escape.
"Qingsuo, you, why are you back?" Ao Gu was so frightened that he took a few steps back until he saw Shi Xuan, and burst into tears: "Master, you, you are back!"
Shi Xuan smiled and comforted Ao Gu with a few words, while Qing Suo stood behind Shi Xuan with a calm look and said nothing.
…………
After taking Chu Wan'er and Qing Suo to Guanghan Sect to meet Meng Nichang, Shi Xuan quickly returned to the sect.
During this meeting, in addition to using Jiuyou Qi to express gratitude and contact Mo Yuan and others, Meng Nichang also briefly mentioned the matter of Lin Xuantong, the real person in Mai who occupies Tianji City, which was a bit more complicated than what he had explored before.
Because the Heavenly Immortal Lord behind him also has a good friend who is also in Yu Yutian. He may come to help when the time comes, so he needs to work separately.
"Time is really rushing like running water. In the blink of an eye, it has been one thousand three or four hundred years since Senior Meng entered heaven. The aura that seems to be near but actually far away is getting stronger and stronger. If it is not delayed, the disaster will probably be over within a thousand years."
It will come." Shi Xuan sighed to Chu Wan'er while pressing the escape light.
When you reach the realm of heaven and human beings, the deeper your understanding of the great road and the more consistent it is, the faster you will practice, whether it is your own cultivation level or the level of immortality. Meng Nichang's accumulation in this area is obviously very rich, and her foundation is very solid. According to her
As mentioned, most of the lunar, ice and snow magic arts were cultivated to the fifth level four hundred years ago. Compared with some of the heavenly immortals and true monarchs, when the calamity comes, only two or three immortal arts can match their own level. It is really incredible.
Same thing.
Chu Wan'er admired Meng Nichang quite a bit and said with admiration: "Well, more than 300 years ago, Senior Meng teamed up with others to break into the deep outer reaches of the Western Wilderness. Although they didn't find any caves, they were rare.
True Lord, who returned safely after being slightly injured, is truly amazing."
When he returned to the cave, Shi Xuan found that Ming Qingyue was already waiting inside. She was still wearing her favorite purple dress. She was still so vigorous and vigorous, without any signs of haggard. It seemed that she had not achieved the soul for more than two thousand years and had not suffered any pain.
.
"I feel relieved when I see Qingyue like this." Shi Xuan smiled and asked Ming Qingyue to sit down and told Ao Gu to make tea.
Ming Qingyue smiled: "Shi Xuan, you are the same, easy-going and indifferent and don't put on airs. Haha, in fact, if you had seen me a few hundred years earlier, I'm afraid you would have been frightened and blurted out, 'This is definitely not the Ming I know.
Qingyue!'"
"What do you mean by Qingyue's words?" Shi Xuan took a sip of tea and saw that Qingyue didn't care about the ordeal, so he asked.
Ming Qingyue smiled and showed a recalling expression: "In the past thousand years, I have been traveling in Yu Yutian, and I have met and heard about many monks, some from other sects, some casual cultivators, and have been to the Western Wasteland.
The kingdom of monsters and beasts has slowly entered a stage of being plagued by illusions, and since more than six hundred years ago, some of the monks I know and heard about have gradually become souls."
"So when you compare yourself, you feel very disappointed. So your Taoist heart is shaken?" Shi Xuan said lightly.
Ming Qingyue nodded slightly and said with a half-joking smile: "If they are all geniuses like you, Shi Xuan, I will naturally be sincerely happy and will not cause any ripples. But among these monks who have achieved Yuan Shen, the talent
, Taoist heart, tempering, and firmness are only one or two that are comparable to mine. The rest, who clearly feel that they are far inferior to me, have also achieved Yuanshen, whether they have obtained the fate of the Heavenly Immortal True Monarch, or they have met by chance.
When the opportunity arises, you may also take shortcuts such as the heretical primordial spirit and the conferment of gods.”
"I often asked myself at that time: Is my path wrong? Is the kung fu I have chosen extremely difficult to master? Is it the black dragon blood in me that is causing trouble? Obviously they are not as good as me, they obviously have an average Taoist heart, and they obviously have an average Taoist heart.
The tempering is far less than mine, so why are you still catching up with me step by step, and surpassing me, becoming the real Yuanshen that the world admires and admires." A layer of mist formed in Ming Qingyue's eyes, which reflected a pair of eyes that were extremely beautiful. It was obvious that those
Years of suffering are still deeply in her memory.
Since it was a casual chat afterwards, Shi Xuan naturally said without hesitation: "Except for those who take shortcuts, those who can achieve Yuanshen must have their merits. It's just that you didn't see it at the time, Qingyue."
"I have always known this truth, and now I am even more clear and firm. But at that time, it was as if I was possessed by a demon. I was full of jealousy, low self-esteem, and was constantly plagued by illusions. I couldn't control myself. I felt that the practice was delaying me.
It's the black dragon bloodline that delayed me." Ming Qingyue sighed.
"Later, there was another father who failed in his pursuit of the pure Yang magic weapon and gave up the great path. He relied on consecrating gods to enjoy tens of thousands of years of life. My mother only envied mandarin ducks and not immortals. The role model I had set since childhood suddenly collapsed, leaving me
I was full of doubts about whether I could continue on the road of greatness, so I thought about reincarnating in advance, getting rid of the black dragon bloodline in my body, and taking away the "Shenxiao True Dharma"."
Shi Xuan smiled softly and said: "However, it seems that Qingyue you failed to take action in the end?" After such suffering, if Ming Qingyue can persist, it will be a blessing to her soul.
Ming Qingyue took a sip of tea and calmed down her mood: "After returning to the sect, I tried many times to exchange for the chance of reincarnation, but I always stopped at Tianshu Peak. There seemed to be a kind of power in the many sufferings that prevented me from stepping on it.
Asking myself, if I didn't have the blood of the black dragon, it might be difficult for me to advance to the divine soul as early as the Qi-entraining stage. Moreover, after comparing many thunder methods, excluding the blood factor, I feel that I like the true method of the galaxy and the power of water from the bottom of my heart.
I like the power of stars and the power of time.”
"In the midst of the suffering, my father sent me a classic book, which he obtained during his travels. It specifically records the lives of many alien monsters and predecessors who have become the authentic soul of the Taoist sect. Although it is not very detailed, it contains only a few words.
It can be seen from the story how difficult it was for them to walk on this road. They had witnessed countless others' successes and were often ridiculed and bullied. However, they persisted without hesitation and finally attained the soul."
"So my mood gradually calmed down, and from this calmness came a power to get rid of the suffering one by one. What does others have to do with me? And since my predecessors can do it, why can't I do it?! What is it?
Bloodline is definitely not something you should consider in order to become a soul!"
Speaking of the last sentence, Ming Qingyue smiled slightly, but it was like a hundred flowers blooming, dazzling.
Shi Xuan put his hands on his hands and laughed: "This is called the heart that remains the same despite all the twists and turns. From the day you and I got acquainted, haven't you shown this heart without a doubt? It's just that compared to that time, you are less inferior to the Black Dragon bloodline.
That’s all.”
Ming Qingyue was stunned, and her life experiences emerged in her mind. After so many years, it turns out that her path has not changed, no matter how much she feels inferior, how much she suffers, how much she wanders! She has just become indifferent to her obsession!
She laughed softly, laughing until tears rolled down her face, and the small and cute dragon horns appeared on her head. She was magnanimous and went her own way. Gradually, her body was filled with light, and the water rippled, containing countless starlight, wrapping her up.
"Ming, Miss Ming has just stepped into the realm of life and death?" Heilong Aogu, who was standing beside him, opened his mouth wide and said incredulously. He was Ming Qingyue's cousin, so he did not follow Shi Xuan's disciples, servants, Yuan Ling called
Uncle Ming Qingyue and Qing Suo were nibbling the spiritual fruit that they had taken out from nowhere without being surprised.
Shi Xuan smiled happily and said: "When I made calculations for her before, I found that her accumulation was extremely powerful. She had already had enough. It was just a short step. Even without my wake-up call, in the next few hundred years, there would be great opportunities.
Easy to come across.”
Sensing the movement in Shixuan Cave, Xie Fangwei, Chu Wan'er, Yang Zongzhi and others all asked about their Yuanshi. Only Jiang Zhenren, who was in seclusion to eliminate interference, was completely unaware. After asking what was going on,
, they are all happy and sighing for Ming Qingyue, the two thousand-year-old Yin Shen Venerable.
A loud roar rang out, and Ming Qingyue's Yin Shen disappeared in place together with the water waves and starlight that enveloped her. Then the color of the sky and earth outside changed, violent storms broke out, a little bit of bright starlight, blue water light, and countless
The color time suddenly appeared, blended with the laws of heaven and earth, and quickly gathered, condensing into a hundred-foot-sized statue of the soul.
His head was born with a small black dragon horn, which was densely covered with talisman and seal characters, mysterious and mysterious. He was dressed in a purple robe that was elegant and dignified, with a beautiful face and heroic spirit. He was Ming Qingyue, but he was much more free and easy, self-confident and determined than before.
Ming Qingyue Yuanshen gradually shrank, and then bowed deeply to Shi Xuan, her joy and gratitude were beyond words. Shi Xuan was unceremonious and accepted with a smile, but there were no extra words. With the friendship between the two, it was naturally silent.
It's better to have a voice, everything can be said without words.
…………
Thirty-nine years later, in the Western Wasteland, Tianji City and Tianji Mansion.
Compared with that time, Tianji City now has a more chilling atmosphere, and there are dark green clouds rolling above the city. The atmosphere is very terrifying, and even the Sanjie Yangshen Master may not be able to break through this protective formation.
However, the protective formation was opened at the city gate to welcome the monks who came to congratulate them. The horizontal plaque on the city tower had been changed from Tianji City to "Voodoo Sect".
The original main hall of Tianji Mansion was magnificently decorated, with colorful lanterns and golden flowers, and the air was flowing. The Tianji List placed here had long been moved to another place, but the monks who came to the hall had cold and vicious hearts.
, the hairy feeling is a characteristic of Voodoo Sect.
In the main hall, there are many cases, but there are very few monks sitting there. Several real Yuanshen are all casual cultivators. They are from small sects, and there are more or less shadows of the real lords of heavenly immortals from other realms behind them. As for the dozens of other gods, they are all casual cultivators.
They are all high-level casual cultivators who are not very good at it, and their purposes are different.
"There are so few people here. Are they so afraid of Lord Meng Zhen of the Guanghan Sect? Master Lin is also backed by Lord Celestial Immortal!" An old woman with wrinkles that could kill mosquitoes looked around and said disdainfully.
The young Lord Yin Shen sitting next to her was not so stable. He used his spiritual consciousness to communicate with the old woman: "According to the secrets I heard, the Penglai Sect has a Zongzong-Tongtian Lingbao, which is equivalent to a heavenly immortal.
Lord, even though the true Lord behind Master Lin is powerful, I’m afraid he can’t beat four hands with just two fists.”
Back then, Shi Xuan used the Qingsuo Sword to kill a real person named Yang Shen of Three Tribulations. It was not a secret among the immortals and real people, but it was an extremely secretive thing for Jin Dan and Yin Shen.
"Then why are you here? Aren't you afraid of being killed by Guanghan Sect and Penglai Sect?" The old woman smiled and looked at the young Lord Yin Shen with trembling wrinkles.
The young Lord Yin Shen smiled bitterly and said: "There is no way to do this. If you want to take a step forward, you can only choose to rely on the Voodoo Sect. If you gain this advantage, the Heavenly Immortal True Monarch can at least suppress it. No matter how hard it is, you can still hold on!"
"Then I'll tell you, True Monarch Cursed Spring has a good friend, Jing Mingzi, who is also a powerful celestial being. He is deep in the Western Wilderness. He will come to help today. He will definitely make Guanghan Sect and Penglai Sect lose face. After all,
The Tongtian Lingbao before the three declines, when the Penglai sect does not have an immortal envoy, is two or three points worse than the True Lord of the same level." The old woman and Lin Xuantong were childhood friends and whispered.
Preparation for Voodoo Sect.
The young Lord Yin Shen beamed with joy when he heard this, he came to the right place this time!
Several Yuanshen Daoist people were chatting with each other with a smile. They were just here to observe the attitude and confidence of Yu Yutian and other major sects, and would not interfere in this matter, so they were very relaxed.
In the back hall, Lin Xuantong was wearing linen clothes. His hair was disheveled but not dirty. In line with his handsome appearance, he had a strange sense of beauty. He was respectfully looking at the man in front of him who was also wearing linen but had dark hair.
The old man with a green knotted hairpin and a dark green hairpin said: "Master, senior Jing Mingzi hasn't arrived yet, do you want to start on time?"
"Don't worry about it. He always arrives at the last minute, and how can I have no other preparations for you?" Zhenjun Cursequan smiled softly, "I have already asked a Taoist friend from the great sect to borrow his help.
Even though I haven't survived the calamity even if I use her Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, it's enough."
Lin Xuantong was completely relieved this time, closed his eyes and waited for the moment to come.
…………
In the clouds above Tianji City, there is a fairy palace surrounded by white clouds. The four words "Ten Thousand Immortals Hall" are written on the horizontal plaque at the main entrance. Inside are the real people from the seven major sects in Yu Yutian. They have no strength to intervene.
We can only use the Ten Thousand Immortals Hall to keep an eye on the progress of the matter.
"I heard that the Curse Spring Master invited a good friend Jing Mingzi to come to help. I wonder if Meng Zhenjun knew about it?" Yao Wang Sect Baicao Master Mu Weijun looked at Guanghan Sect Wu Yue'e with some worry.
Wu Yue'e smiled slightly and said: "Senior Shi has already brought Qingchen Sword to stop Jing Mingzi. I don't think he can reach Tianji City."
All the real people nodded. Even though the Tongtian Lingbao was a little worse than the real people of the same level, if it were just to block it, as long as the other party didn't fight hard, the problem wouldn't be too big. Moreover, the purple and green swords disappeared together back then!
Only Qiao Mubai secretly thought that the Qingchen Sword, according to Da Zi Zi Fei Jian, is a spiritual treasure that can reach the sky after a decline. Even if its strength has not been restored, it is still on par with ordinary immortals and true kings, let alone cooperate with Shi Xuan in the sword.
Dharma attainments.
His Great Freedom Flying Sword is not far away from the fourth heavenly tribulation.
"Dear Masters, the Qingchen Sword has been changed and is called Qingsuo. It is used for rebirth." Chu Wan'er interrupted with a smile and was in a good mood. Although Master Jiang was a little reluctant more than thirty years ago, he still managed to survive.
After the third heavenly tribulation, we are stabilizing our state.
All the real people smiled. They had never seen Tongtian Lingbao change his name before. Then Ge Huangting, the Xiaoyao faction, asked: "So, is Meng Zhenjun coming to visit alone?"
"My master estimated that Master Curse Spring would stop her outside the city, so the person who came to visit was another low-key Master Yijie Yang Shen. He had some connections with a certain Master in the Rogue Cultivator Alliance who died tragically, and was favored by his half master.
, is the most suitable candidate. Haha, speaking of it, you also have some connections with Master Qiao." Wu Yue'e looked at Qiao Mubai with a chuckle.
Qiao Mubai's handsome face was at a loss, he had no idea who it could be, and the same goes for other real people.
…………
A clear ray of light quickly flew out from the yellow sand in the sky outside the Western Wilderness. It was about to reach Tianji City. Suddenly, a green sword light flashed, a fierce aura surged, and the sky and the ground were covered with sword energy. Every sword light seemed to come from
It comes from outside the sky, misty and traceless yet extremely sharp.
The yellow sand sky turned black instantly, and the sword light turned into beautiful and brilliant stars rising up. They formed a mysterious and mysterious formation around the Ziwei Emperor Star, trapping Jing Mingzi in it. White tigers, white rainbows, green dragons, etc. came from all directions.
, and this sword array also has a hint of cyan sword light, making it even more mysterious and dangerous.
Jing Mingzi was reminded by Master Curse Spring and was prepared, but she did not expect that the opponent's swordsmanship was so strong. It was similar to the swordsmanship of a non-swordsman who was not a swordsman in the level of Immortal Power, and she fully displayed the power of the Lingbao Flying Sword.
A clear light mirror appeared behind his head, emitting endless light, illuminating Qing Ming above and the center of the earth below. All the misty sword lights emerged from the light and became very heavy. Unfortunately, Jing Mingzi was half too late.
Take a picture, and you will see the stars shining in the sky, and the bright light penetrates the nine heavens, giving the whole body a sense of time and space changes.
Although the natal spiritual treasure "Dongweizhu Youjing" protected her whole body and was not harmed, when the stars in the sky disappeared and the green sword light disappeared, Jing Mingzi became even more solemn because she was in an inexplicable world with strange scenery.
It's spectacular, above are thunderclouds of various colors roaring and shining, below are thousands of miles of crystal clear glaciers, and the laws of heaven and earth are suppressing and weakening themselves.
On the highest ice peak, there was a young real man in a plain green Taoist robe crossing his legs. Standing next to him was a girl in an emerald green dress who was making tea and dividing water. There was an ordinary table in front of her. He smiled lightly and said: "
True Lord Jingmingzi, why bother fighting for the cursed spring? Why not enjoy a cup of tea and chat for a while with such beautiful scenery?" Being able to overwhelm others with power, Shi Xuan will naturally not idle away and fight for his life.
