The shackles of desire are located in the holy soul and are connected to consciousness.
Zhang Ruochen has a heart of truth and can sense the position of the shackles.
When he tried his best to break the shackles, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, which was bone-piercing. When he looked down, he saw a blood-red sword tip appearing near his heart.
The strength I had accumulated to break the shackles was released in an instant.
Zhang Ruochen looked back in disbelief and saw a young and beautiful face with long black hair and spiritual eyes. It was Chi Yao in her teenage years.
The swallow pendant she tied around her waist was blown by the wind, making a beautiful "ding-ding" sound.
"Pfft!"
She drew the sword away.
Zhang Ruochen's heart and back were bleeding profusely, his body lost strength and he half-knelt on the ground.
Seeing the graceful figure turning away and walking further and further away, Zhang Ruochen wanted to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, blood gushed out from his throat.
Finally, he fell to the ground and watched the woman he loved the most walking away, her back becoming blurry.
He couldn't believe it in his heart that Chi Yao, who never killed anyone, the innocent Princess Chi Yao, and the sister Chi Yao who loved to laugh and tease him, could actually kill him with one sword.
"It's fake, it's all fake, wake up, wake up quickly!"
The scene in front of Zhang Ruochen disappeared and he returned to the Seven Star Emperor Palace. His whole body was still tense, and he gradually recovered from the suffocation and gasped for breath.
The scene just now has happened countless times in dreams or memories.
Although he learned the truth eight hundred years ago from Chi Yao and Kong Lanyou, he still seemed to have not completely let go. At the critical moment of breaking the shackles of desire, he actually got lost.
"Come again."
Zhang Ruochen calmed down his mind, closed his eyes, and gathered strength again.
The holy energy in the body moves rapidly according to the ninth level of the "Nine Heavens Ming Emperor Sutra", and the holy power erupting from the body becomes stronger and stronger, turning into a beam of light and rushing out from the top of the head.
At this moment, Chi Yao's voice sounded in my ears: "I'll kill you because your body is filled with the blood of one of the ten clans of hell. Your mother is the blood of one of the three queens of the Kunlun realm eight hundred years ago."
Finally, is this reason enough?"
"You promised me not to tell him this secret." Kong Lanyou's voice sounded.
…
Zhang Ruochen's body trembled slightly, and the light beam above his head dimmed a little.
"Emperor Ming used his powerful cultivation to seal the blood of the undead vampires in your body. This is why you were unable to break through to the fish-dragon realm in your last life."
"The Blood Queen approaches Emperor Ming in order to control Emperor Ming and the entire Shengming Central Empire, thereby further achieving the goal of controlling the Kunlun Realm."
…
"Someone has sent word that Emperor Ming has been controlled by the Blood Queen and has become her puppet."
…
"You wouldn't be so naive as to think that my affection for you is not over, right? If so, I advise you not to have such wishful thinking. In the eyes of God, you can only be regarded as a chess piece that is of some use."
…
Zhang Ruochen reacted fiercely at first, but gradually calmed down, and no matter what sound came to his ears, it was difficult to affect him.
Just when he thought he was fearless, his heart was as strong as iron, and he was ready to work hard and break the shackles.
Suddenly, my forehead felt cold.
He stretched out his fingers and touched it lightly, and the snowflakes on his forehead melted away.
Zhang Ruochen looked around and saw snow falling all over the sky.
There is a ball of colorful divine light in the sky, which sheds wisps of rosy clouds. A statue of a god three thousand feet high rises from the ground, exactly like Chi Yao.
In front is a majestic palace with its door wide open.
Huang Yanchen, dressed in red, stood in the center of the palace gate and said, "Master asked me to tell you that today, she doesn't want to kill you and will let you leave by yourself. If you become more peaceful in the future, she can spare your life."
The screen flashed.
The Hunyuan Sword in Huang Yanchen's hand pierced his chest.
The physical and mental pain caused Zhang Ruochen's accumulated strength to dissipate again.
The second attempt to break the shackles failed.
Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged in the Seven-Star Emperor's Palace, covering his chest with his hands and beads of sweat covering his face.
The scene just now was exactly what happened when Chi Yao went to Ziwei Palace on the day he became a god. It was at that time that he and Huang Yanchen completely turned against each other, cut off their robes, and no longer had any love as husband and wife.
point.
"Again, this little obsession won't stop me."
Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath and sat up straight, his eyes as sharp as knives.
Next, every time I try to break the shackles, I will always be affected by various past events.
Sometimes, I heard the news about the death of Prince Yunwu.
Sometimes, I go back to the day when the heads of Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, Fifth Senior Sister, and Bai Su were hanging outside the Yin Yang Palace.
Sometimes, he replays the moment when he killed the Barbarian Sword Master.
…
Zhang Ruochen relied on his strong will to suppress these distracting thoughts, and his mood remained firm.
The desire elixir and the heart of truth are also helping him.
The Nian Yu Dan weakened the obsession in his heart a lot.
The heart of truth helps him see through all kinds of illusions and return to reality.
Breaking the shackles of desire is dangerous and difficult. If you are not careful, your inner demons will invade and turn into an irrational demon. If Zhang Ruochen hadn't been in a critical situation, he would never have reached the realm now.
I don’t know how long it has passed...
"Boom!"
A sound of breaking strings came from Zhang Ruochen's body, and in the Xingshu Palace, circles of holy energy ripples spread out from his body.
Blood flowed from the corner of Zhang Ruochen's mouth.
However, he laughed instead and said: "I broke through the situation by force and succeeded!"
The shackles of desire have been broken.
He still hasn't reached the Great Perfection of the Hundred Shackles Realm.
Because, in addition to a hundred main shackles, there are thousands of small shackles in a monk's body.
Of course, those little shackles are nothing to be afraid of, they just take a long time.
Although he succeeded in breaking through, Zhang Ruochen forced his way through and was severely devastated. In addition to cracks appearing in the sea of qi, all his internal organs were damaged.
Zhang Ruochen didn't take his physical injuries seriously at all and immediately activated his skills.
Because of the breakthrough in realm, the rules of the Holy Path in the Qi Sea increased rapidly. In less than a quarter of an hour, the number of rules increased by 300 million, and then gradually slowed down.
Immediately afterwards, the undead blood in his body boiled out of control, and he developed a strong bloodthirsty impulse.
"Wow——"
Ten golden wings automatically rushed out from the back, with ancestral lines flowing on them.
The spine became more and more hot and bulging, burning, growing two bulges, and sending out a tearing pain.
"Chichi."
In the raised areas, the skin and flesh broke open, emitting golden light.
This is a sign that new golden wings are about to grow.
The blood in Zhang Ruochen's body quickly dried up, and his body became thinner. His bloodthirsty rush became more intense, and sharp teeth sprouted from his mouth.
Only by drinking blood can one make up for the loss of blood.
He immediately took out a jar of divine blood from the space ring.
After opening the wooden jar, Zhang Ruochen's hand stopped.
His eyes were blood red, and when he looked at the blood in the jar, the smell of blood seemed to become extremely mellow. His fingers trembled for a long time, and he threw the wooden jar away, and took out one sacred medicine after another from the space ring, no matter what year it was.
, stuff it into your mouth hard.
The holy medicine enters the abdomen, and as the exercise moves, the rules of the holy way in the sea of qi begin to grow again.
On the back, the eleventh and twelfth golden wings gradually grew out, but they were in a half-real and half-empty state, like chaotic mist.
I don't know how many holy medicines Zhang Ruochen took, but he couldn't hold it anymore, so he stopped.
The bloodthirsty impulse gradually faded away.
…
One month later.
Zhang Ruochen's cultivation has been completely consolidated, and his physical injuries have long since healed.
"It's too risky to attack the Shackles of Desire this time. Fortunately, I have the Desire Pill and the Heart of Truth. Otherwise, it will definitely be more difficult for me to pass this level than Emperor Yu. I might be stuck here for a thousand years.
Even ten thousand years."
"Now that I have broken my desire, I will probably frighten many monks who don't think highly of me! Will my ranking in the "God's Reserve Volume" be improved a bit?"
Zhang Ruochen knew very well that although he had cultivated the second-grade holy will and showed unparalleled qualifications, there were still countless monks and even gods in the hell world who did not think highly of him, thinking that it would be difficult for him to overcome his desires. Qian Wen,
A lifetime of death.
And he just wanted to prove to those people that he was not that fragile.
Next, Zhang Ruochen began to summarize the gains and losses of this breakthrough.
First of all, the Nian Yu Dan and a large number of holy medicines contained rich energy, which was transformed into the rules of the holy way after he broke through.
The original 7.5 billion rules of the Holy Path have been increased to 7.9 billion.
Secondly, in the year that he broke free from the shackles of desire, Zhang Ruochen repeatedly experienced all the past. Although it was only a year, he felt as if he had experienced several centuries, and he had a new perspective on many things.
The state of mind is changing.
The spirit he has been looking for seems to have appeared and been buried in his heart. However, he has never been able to grasp it accurately and needs an opportunity.
Zhang Ruochen could clearly feel that the divine power was flowing in his blood, and the power of the demigod's body was further released. The skin, muscles, bones, and internal organs were constantly being washed and nourished by the divine power, and they were strengthening all the time.
You must know that his current body has been nourished by the Blood Queen, using the divine blood of the Divine Phoenix and her own divine blood. The divine power contained deep in the bloodline is unmatched by any great sage.
His body, cultivation, and state of mind have all improved tremendously, but Zhang Ruochen is not blindly optimistic.
He knew very well that he was able to break through the realm only because he suppressed his thoughts and desires. When he reaches the Thousand Questions realm, these problems will explode even more intensely.
Zhang Ruochen's state of mind has undergone a huge transformation, so unlike before, he is not frowning, but rather calm.
Let’s wait until Qian Wenjing to talk about Qianwenjing.
No matter what you are going to face, just face it head on, take the next step, and push through it all the way.
Zhang Ruochen came to the Star Instrument Palace to check the progress of Xiao Hei's refining formation.
In the Star Artifact Palace, more than a hundred owls are practicing the formation, all of them are Xiao Hei's spiritual clones.
Xiao Hei's true self saw Zhang Ruochen with a thin face and said, "Why have you lost a lot of weight? Could it be that... the Witch of Gushe is here again?"
"Don't talk nonsense! How about I find you a female owl and make you lose weight?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Xiao Hei looked surprised, raised his head and looked at Zhang Ruochen.
"What are you looking at? I'm not a female owl." Zhang Ruochen touched the tip of his nose and felt uncomfortable with Xiao Hei's eyes.
Xiaohei's eyes were complicated and he said: "Why do I feel that you have changed a lot."
"Really? What has changed?" Zhang Ruochen smiled.
Xiao Hei was more sure that what he felt in his heart was correct, and said: "I think you have become more optimistic and upright. You are no longer as gloomy as before. It seems that you have countless thoughts hidden, as if... you can do any bad thing...
Hey, what are you doing? You asked me to tell you."
