Chapter 79 A messenger comes from heaven(1/3)
The pilgrimage team finally bid farewell to Baoxiang Kingdom and continued their journey westward.
As summer goes and autumn comes, the snow melts and the willows turn green. Time is the most unbearable thing to pass by. In the countless sunrises and sunsets, the edges and corners of people are smoothed, but it also makes young people gradually become older.
As the years passed, Li Zhi's height had grown a lot, and he was even half a head taller than Tang Seng. According to the standards of later generations, he had grown to a height of 1.85 meters.
A young man of seventeen or eighteen is a proper adult in this era.
Of course, Li Zhi is still smaller than Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha. Those two people... haha.
"Jiulang, why do you think you can encounter spirits everywhere in Hezhou, Xiniu, but there are so few monsters in Buzhou, especially in the Tang Dynasty?"
The further west he went, the more doubtful Tang Seng became. This was not the first time that he raised similar questions.
Originally, the purpose of traveling thousands of miles to the Great Leiyin Temple in Xitian to obtain the Dharma of Dharma was to "save all sentient beings and save the world." But why is this place in Hezhou, Xiniu, not as good as living and working in peace and contentment in the Tang Dynasty?
Li Zhi naturally knew how to answer Tang Seng's question, but did he really "dare" to tell the truth?
"Uncle Clan, for many things, the result may not be important. What matters is participation. Whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, you can only truly know which is good or bad if you experience it yourself."
"Kiulang only hopes that Uncle Clan will always adhere to his true intentions, see with his own eyes, and think with his own heart. Of course, the higher your cultivation level, the more clearly you can see and think.
”
"Even if one day you find that everything in the past is in vain, you still have the opportunity and ability to turn your hands into clouds and rain."
It was not convenient for Li Zhi to "instruct" Tang Seng to do something, but it did not prevent him from giving a gentle boost to Tang Seng's transformation, that's all.
The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism is a game between the real big guys. They are unable to fight. Submission may be the best attitude.
However, it’s okay to think about it occasionally, right?
In the more than half a year since I came out of Baoxiang Kingdom, I have encountered dozens of monsters along the way. Unfortunately, none of them were of a good temper. The always aggressive Sun Wukong had no fighting spirit. Instead, he made Tang Monk do the Angry Eyes King Kong several times.
Now Tang Seng is becoming more and more proficient in using the Buddhist "Six-Character Mantra". Combined with the "Nine-Ring Tin Staff" in his hand, Sun Wukong even taught Tang Seng a set of "Demon Conquering Stick Techniques".
Protected by a "brocade cassock" and waving a "nine-ring tin staff" in his hand, a Tang monk who has not yet reached the "stage of transcending tribulation" can actually achieve the combat power of an ordinary "celestial being".
However, Tang Monk's attitude of only injuring but not killing still made Zhu Bajie feel that it was not satisfying enough. He was also greedy for the bodies of those monsters.
The Buddhist pilgrims were not in a hurry to go on their way. Tang Monk himself even had the idea of "doubt", and the others were even less active.
The frenzied cultivation trend has not stopped in the past six months, and daily discussions between each other have become routine. Fortunately, most of the places we pass are deserted wilderness, so there is no need to worry about shocking the world.
It is worth mentioning that Li Zhi's realm has also achieved a breakthrough again. In winter, he has officially entered the "true fairy" realm.
Once entering the "True Immortal" realm, "Cangming Jue" has also risen to the fifth level, and "Destroying the Illusion Golden Eyes" has made rapid progress. It has caught up with the progress of senior brother Sun Wukong, and has also reached the "Green" level.
p>
When it reaches the "green" level, it actually has a "new" function. It moisturizes the eyes, allows mortals to heal from serious injuries, and makes flesh from white bones. This characteristic is really useful if it is used to save lives and heal the wounded.
Unfortunately, the promotion of "Cangming Jue" did not bring any new benefits to Li Zhi as expected.
It seems that only when you advance to an even number level, there will be additional surprises.
Just like the "Powerful" characteristic of "Cangming Jue" at the second level, and the "clairvoyance" and "Shunfeng Ear" at the fourth level...
Although he has been promoted in cultivation, his physical training seems to have reached a bottleneck, and he is still stuck at the peak of "Golden Immortal". He has not been there for so long since he broke through at "Wuzhuang Temple"
There has been too much progress.
Originally, Li Zhi had imagined that when he passed the "True Immortal" calamity, he could use the "True Immortal" thunder calamity to forge his physical body again.
Unfortunately, the result still disappointed him.
What the "True Immortal" suffered was just an ordinary "Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation". Compared with the "Purple Sky Divine Thunder" that it had survived before, it was simply incomparable.
Although in Li Zhi's opinion it was "ordinary", it also made Zhu Bajie, Xiao Bailong and others envious. After all, it was also the "Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation", and the rewards after the tribulation were still considerable.
You may not have noticed, but Li Zhi has just reached the "True Immortal" stage, and of course he has reached the later stage of the "True Immortal" stage. This may be a common practice among geniuses, but outsiders may not be able to understand it.
Li Zhi was still a little dissatisfied. In order to forge a physical body in the thunder tribulation, he did not even use weapons or "True Sun Fire" in the entire process. He would rather spend a lot of "Ginseng Fruit Wine" to renew his strength.
p>
In the end, thirty kilograms of "ginseng fruit wine" was used up, which made Li Zhi feel heartbroken after the disaster.
Nowadays, the strength of the learning team has been improved as a whole.
Senior Brother Sun Wukong has reached the middle stage of "Taiyi Golden Immortal". After all, he is recovering his cultivation. Even so, he still used up the twenty kilograms of "Ginseng Fruit Wine" given to him by Li Zhi.
From now on, he can only rely on his own cultivation.
However, Li Zhi knew very well that in another time and space, until he finally reached Lingshan, Sun Wukong had only reached this state.
In the end, with the help of the merits of the journey to the west, I was able to break through in one fell swoop and truly reach the realm of Da Luo.
It has only been four years since he set out to learn the experience. Li Zhi has reason to believe that senior brother's prospects will be broader than in another time and space.
Second senior brother Zhu Bajie, although he is lazy, always likes to take advantage of small things. Combined with his own experience and being stimulated by the team's environment, his progress in cultivation is obvious to all.
Zhu Bajie, who was once in the middle stage of "Taiyi Xuanxian" in his heyday, has now reached the early stage of "Taiyi Xuanxian" in cultivation, which makes the old pig even more motivated and makes him much more diligent.
Then there is the little white dragon, who has transformed into the body of a white dragon and horse. He spends most of his time walking in obscurity, but it also provides him with the best state of practice.
And Bai Longma also has an advantage that no one else has, or it should be said that traveling to the west to learn scriptures has given him unique benefits. With luggage on his back, Bai Longma can feel the blessings the earth has given him with every step he takes towards the west.
Give back.
The traces of the earth's breath, full of strong earth elements, make the white dragon horse's body increasingly solid. In terms of physical strength, Sun Wukong, Xiao Bailong and Li Zhike are among the top three, far and away.
Leave others behind.
The most incredible thing is the third senior brother, Monk Sha.
It has been almost two years since I joined the team for Buddhist scriptures. I no longer have to suffer the pain of flying swords piercing my heart every day like when I was imprisoned in the "Liusha River". I also ate two "ginseng fruits".<
/p>
However, Monk Sha's cultivation level is still stuck in the realm of "Golden Immortal", even though he is already in the late stage of "Golden Immortal".
The occurrence of such a strange thing was naturally seen in the eyes of Sun Wukong and Li Zhi, but they did not say anything more and seemed to treat it as if it did not exist?
Speaking of his third senior brother, Monk Sha, Li Zhi remembered the "Thirteen Flying Swords" that he had secretly seized when he was at Liusha River.
Now that he knew that it was the hand of the Supreme Lord, Li Zhi never dared to act rashly. It was not until he was promoted to the realm of "True Immortal" that he started to think about the thirteen flying swords.
However, what he needs to practice the "Heaven and Earth Sword Technique" is a sword. Although these thirteen flying swords are not ordinary, they are just like that in true terms.
As an instrument of execution, no matter how good it is, how much better can it be?
It's a pity that neither Li Zhi nor the others in the Buddhist scripture collection team are proficient in weapon refining.
These thirteen flying swords are obviously "stolen items" and cannot be easily shown to others.
In "Desperate
In this situation, Li Zhi could only take the old path and seek advice from the Great Weapon Spirit in the Sea of Consciousness.
"You're really good, you dare to snatch something from that old guy? You really don't know how high the sky is, but I like your way of seeking death, hahaha——"
Seeing the thirteen flying swords that Li Zhi took out, Qi Ling recognized them at a glance as being made by Taishang Laojun.
Produced by Taishang, they must be high-quality products. Although these thirteen flying swords are not high-grade, they are the best among the same level.
"Boy, I can help you with this matter, but it will cost me a lot of effort. You have to give me some compensation, right?"
When did the Qi Ling become a philistine? Is this "the one who is close to the ink is black"?
"I don't know what Senior Qi Ling has ordered. As long as the boy can do it, he will definitely not refuse it. However, the boy has always been very poor. You always know this..."
Although he couldn't see Qi Ling's face, Li Zhi could feel that it must be the face of a "big bad wolf", looking at him, a little fresh meat, with evil intentions.
"Haha, don't play tricks in front of me. You still have twenty kilograms of "ginseng wine" on you, right? Is it okay to take it out and give me ten kilograms?"
"Hmph, every time you use the word "I", you shout, "Senior, Senior, Short". Why don't you think of me when you eat "Ginseng Fruit"?"
The weapon spirit of the big black gun sounded very dissatisfied.
This is really to blame on Li Zhi's negligence. The big black gun is his last resort. He planned so many "ginseng fruits" for others and gave away a lot of "ginseng fruit wine", but Li Zhi simply ignored this weapon.
Senior Ling.
Being caught in front of others, Li Zhi naturally didn't say much, so he obediently offered ten kilograms of "ginseng wine".
When "Ginseng Fruit Wine" appeared in the sea of consciousness, the aroma was overflowing, and the two irregular black and yellow fragments actually changed their previous silence and became inexplicably excited in mid-air.
"Hey, do you still have this kind of wine? Don't you just want to "refiner your sword"? A sword that only knows how to attack and not know how to defend will eventually fall behind."
"You can also bring me ten kilograms of this wine, and I can help you "sword-refining" together..."
There was a high-pitched voice, but Li Zhi still couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman.
Xuanhuang Fragment suddenly interrupted, but did not arouse dissatisfaction or refutation from the big black gun spirit. Li Zhi was very puzzled.
Could it be that these two people are working together for a girl, or are they colluding with each other to murder this innocent and cute little meat like me?
It was a shame to criticize, and it was really heartbreaking. Li Zhi still obediently took out the last ten kilograms of "ginseng wine" and became a pauper again.
Hey, who are the people you met here? They helped me a little and asked for this and that...
If you don’t dare to say more with your mouth, why don’t you let others complain in your heart?
"Okay, you kid, just wait. After ninety-nine and eighty-one days, you can come here to get the sword again. By the way, summon your "True Sun Fire" over and let that kid also contribute."
To be continued...
