When You Bing finally succeeded in forming the elixir, obtained his own great elixir, and broke free from the clutches of the White Bone Temple Master, he was in an underground palace no matter how many miles away or how deep it was.
In the underground palace, there are rivers, lakes and seas made of mercury, clouds and steam surge up, there are trees made of gold and grass made of silver.
On the upper level of the underground palace, there are bits and pieces of diamond chips floating like stars. Their inner spiritual content is extraordinary and breathtaking.
If there were ancient cultivators here, they would definitely recognize that these diamond cuttings are the spiritual stones taken during meditation, and they are the best among spiritual stones. But if the cultivators after the end of the Tang Dynasty were here, they would be unbelievable.
You can't even recognize that this thing is a spiritual stone.
Right in the center of the underground palace, there is a white lotus that is both virtual and real. It is as big as a mountain. There is a human figure sitting cross-legged in the middle of the underground palace. It has white jade arms and a delicate and lifelike face. It is nine hundred and ninety-nine feet tall and long.
It is as majestic as a mountain.
However, this human form is not a living thing, but a carved stone statue. Its facial expression has not changed for thousands of years, and its smile has not stopped for thousands of years.
Surrounded by rivers of lead and mercury, golden trees and silver grass, and spiritual stones and stars, a voice of admiration suddenly sounded from the white jade statue:
"Out of a hundred and eight thousand seeds, one of them blossoms and bears fruit, good!"
His voice was ethereal and filled with joy, but immediately after the admiration came a curse: "Hateful! Another seed of monasticism will be eaten by you!"
The voices of cursing and the voices of praise are different. It seems that they are not the same person, and there is not just one kind.
"It's a living thing! Can't we reincarnate and rebuild it with peace of mind?"
"Hate, hate, hate! I have been cultivating Taoism for 120 to 30 years. I have worked diligently and accumulated good deeds. Why is it that my Taoism has been taken away from you? Hate!"
The loud sound of praise should have come from the body of the white jade statue, while the sound of curses was just from the insects on its body.
The admiring person heard the sounds of hatred coming from everywhere on his body and said:
"Foolish. We are all one body, so how can we differentiate between you and me? If it were not for the reincarnation of my thoughts, how could you escape from the trap of all living beings? Even so, thousands of thoughts will dissipate in this ordinary life.
How difficult it will be to do Taoism when only the fruits are left!"
"When I have completed my meritorious deeds, escaped from tribulation and become a saint, and ascended to the position of a god again, you will all enjoy great joy, great ease, and great freedom! What a blessing!"
The sound sounded like a loud bell, echoing violently in the underground palace as huge as one world. Under the sound, the curses suddenly became smaller and smaller, and screams were heard:
"Ah! Let me go, let me go!"
"Evil! It's not your idea to assimilate Pindao!"
Then there was another gurgling sound, as if chewing. The huge white lotus statue remained motionless, only the screams inside its belly were louder.
The admirer responded:
"Idiots, if I don't take you away, you will take me away one day. Sit on my throne, enjoy my way, and uphold my Dharma. If so, won't my thousands of years of good results be your wedding dress?"
Immediately, a spiritual thought came out from the white jade statue.
The spirit thought was in the form of a human, with white clothes, white skin, and a solemn appearance. He nodded to the huge white jade statue, and then his body flickered, looking for the feelings that had just arisen.
Only the words left: "When the flowers bloom and you come back, there will be someone to guide you."
"good!"
As soon as this sound fell, the underground palace suddenly fell into silence. Only the lead-mercury river continued to flow silently and solemnly, and the spiritual stone and diamond cuttings no longer flickered.
……………………
Far away in the West Sea, it was also the moment when You Bing formed a third-grade golden elixir, and the vision of its elixir gradually dissipated.
But the news of her second alchemy success spread quickly, especially the fact that she was suspected of being a "high-grade alchemy", making every Taoist dare not ignore it.
The news spreads at different speeds, but the vision she had while forming the elixir far exceeded the expectations of the Taoist on White Bone Island and You Bing herself.
The pure white light energy rushed towards the bullfighting. Although it did not really reach the stars, it also surged up to an altitude of more than 100,000 feet, and even stirred the Gangfeng layer.
Such momentum first affected several islands near White Bone Island, and the forces on each island issued orders one after another to let people find out what happened to the north.
Some people thought that there was a strange treasure appearing in the sea, and immediately rushed towards the direction of the pure white light. It was not until the light suddenly disappeared that they stopped in confusion.
A top-grade elixir is rare to see in the Western Sea for thousands of years, and no one dares to ignore it.
And on the ice-covered Bone Island.
On the top of the iceberg, Xu Dao and You Bing looked at each other, with surprise in their eyes.
Xu Dao was the first to react. He smiled at You Bing and said:
"If I swallow a golden elixir, and it is a high-grade golden elixir, my fellow Taoist will be rich from today on!"
Xu Dao looked at the appearance of You Bing's Yin God, and said with some surprise: "My fellow Taoist's Yin God is unique, with three sides and a snake body. It is similar to the ancient gods. Is there any explanation for this?"
You Bing did not hide anything from Xu Dao and said directly:
"This body does not belong to me alone. The master of the concubine and the soaring snake are still here."
Upon hearing this, Xu Dao frowned immediately, but before he could ask questions, You Bing explained:
"But after the elixir was formed, the situation was different from before. This elixir was formed by my body after all. Even if my body is sleeping or slacking off, the body of the Yin God is also mine. If I don't give it to me, they can't take it away.
"
You Bing thought for a while and said hesitantly: "It seems that this three-sided snake-tailed body also has other wonderful uses. I will have to think about it later..."
After hearing You Bing's explanation, Xu Dao breathed a sigh of relief.
According to what the other party said, the White Bone Temple Master should be completely unable to stand up.
However, Xu Dao was still a little worried when he thought about the rebellion of the White Bone Monarch just now. Although the other party would not rebel again, it was really inconvenient for the three consciousnesses to share one body.
He sighed softly at this: "That White Bone Temple Master, Soaring Snake really has a good life."
Seeing that he was not completely relieved, You Bing took the initiative to comfort him and said:
"What impact does a little inconvenience have? Taoist friends don't even think about it. I was originally a person who had difficulty being promoted to a Taoist disciple, but now I can achieve a golden elixir, and it is a top-grade golden elixir, and I have great magic power.
God has shown mercy to you, and you are blessed with deep blessings."
She smiled and looked at Xu Dao: "In the entire Wu Kingdom, the entire West Sea, and even the entire mountain and sea world, if other people can have such an opportunity, it will be too late for them to enjoy themselves secretly."
Xu Dao agreed with You Bing's words, and at the same time felt happy with You Bing's contented mood.
Just as what the other party meant, if the White Bone Temple Master and Soaring Snake hadn't dedicated their hundreds of years of Taoism, You Bing would probably still be a Taoist priest in the realm of establishing foundations. He might not even be a foundation-building Taoist, but just a disciple.
In comparison, Xu Dao holds the Immortal Treasure, and the opportunities are not bad. Now that he is over half a century old and has not yet completed the elixir, he has to reflect on himself.
Of course, Xu Dao is now determined to produce the first-grade immortal seeds, and he doesn't even think highly of the second-grade golden elixir. The two cannot be equated.
While the two were talking, You Bing was also checking the golden elixir she had just condensed. She seemed to have discovered something, and her expression suddenly became a little weird.
She looked at Xu Dao teasingly, then lowered her gaze and said, "The elixir formation has been completed. Fellow Taoist, you can release it and exit."
When Xu Dao heard this, he immediately realized that he was still holding You Bing's body. Calculating carefully, the two of them had been holding each other for nearly half a month. Fortunately, both of them were cultivators, otherwise they would not have been able to do this.
He stepped back angrily, straightened You Bing's body, then raised his hands and said to You Bing's Yin Shen: "I have let go, fellow Taoist, please return to your position."
You Bing shook his Yin Shen and used his consciousness to check the situation in the spiritual pool and confirmed that there was no adhesion between the two. Just then, with a flash of light, the Yin Shen turned into a little light and returned to his body.
The next moment, You Bing opened her eyes suddenly. First, her eyes flashed with confusion, and then she breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
You Bing chuckled:
"I forgot to tell you, fellow Taoist, that from today on, you and I will no longer be able to have fun. It's such a pity that fellow Taoist was so obedient just now and let go in time."
Xu Dao was slightly stunned when he heard this. He also planned to wait for You Bing to stabilize his cultivation before the two of them could practice together, so that he could get some benefits from it.
You Bing said: "The spirit of the Soaring Snake is also in the body. The Yuan Yin of this snake is still there and cannot be released easily."
It turns out that Teng Snake was refined into the Yin God, and You Bing and his trinity, plus Teng Snake's cultivation level before being smelted, were already quite high. As a result, after You Bing formed the elixir, there was actually an extra element in the Yin God's body.
Yin, and the quantity and quality are not low, it is very pure.
The next time Xu Dao is in love with her, the Yuan Yin in his Yin Shen will pour into Xu Dao's body just like the White Bone Temple Master before, increasing his energy and improving his Taoism.
It would be a pity if such a "miracle medicine" was easily wasted.
Therefore, You Bing suggested that Xu Dao be patient and wait until the elixir is formed before picking the Yuan Yin. The elixir will definitely be of great help by then. Of course, if Xu Dao really can't bear it, or there are other reasons
You Bing will also fully cooperate with other considerations.
What You Bing said made sense, and Xu Dao was surprised when he realized this.
Especially whether it is the original Soaring Snake or the current You Bing, both of them are the heel of high-grade golden elixir. The wonderful effect of Yuan Yin will definitely be better than that of the original White Bone Temple Master. He really cannot waste it easily.
.
Thinking about it, Xu Dao looked up and saw the teasing look on You Bing's face.
His thoughts were diverted and he suddenly blurted out: "How can we not do good deeds without damaging Yuan Yin?"
Now it was You Bing's turn to look stunned...
Immediately afterwards, after some laughter and teasing.
Xu Dao laughed loudly, put on his Taoist robe, and jumped up from the lotus spirit pond. He walked towards the outside of the ice palace casually, leaving You Bing with a red face, trying to calm down in the spirit pond.
.
If it hadn't been for the fact that Xu Dao had deliberately restrained herself when she had just formed the elixir and needed time to recuperate, otherwise her condition would have been even worse.
When Xu Dao's figure completely disappeared, the area around the Lingchi was quiet, and You Bing sat cross-legged in the Lingchi, his expression slowly returning to normal, his face extremely calm.
But inside her body, another fierce dispute broke out.
The Master of Bones Temple sneered and shouted:
"You, you are really blind. Xu Dao has a lot of extravagant work. He is obviously not a good man. Is it worth marrying him?"
You Bing sighed softly: "The marriage is over, time is running out, why bother asking for a name in vain?" She said silently: "Perhaps leaving a regret will make others remember you more deeply.
"
The Master of White Bone Temple sneered at this and said disdainfully: "Indulge in love, let alone your own way, you are not even as good as this little snake."
Hiss! The snake hisses.
The Master of White Bones paused for a moment, then changed the topic again and muttered again: "But if you are really greedy for love, why did you choose to live for ten years? Isn't this a trap for yourself?"
When You Bing heard this, he smiled and said nothing.
This is the complexity of human beings. Although she is devoted to Xu Dao, she is also a Taoist. She has the opportunity to achieve the golden elixir on her own without being restricted. Even if she only has ten years left in her life, she is willing to give it a try.
.
The only regret for her was that she chose to give it a try and successfully received a surprise. The golden elixir improved to a higher level. However, after the golden elixir returned to the physical body, she felt it carefully and found that it still could not make up for the life span of the physical body.
.
You Bing sighed, and the White Bone Temple master understood it, so he replied with a sneer:
"Now I understand that I am not deceiving you! You must know that the golden elixir you formed is the Yin Shen Golden Pill, not the physical golden elixir. After forming the elixir, it will not have much effect on the physical body. At most, it can prolong life."
"And don't forget, the bones in your body are not yours, but the Tao's! After all these years of oppression and depletion, the physical body has long been exhausted and has no energy left. Even if you can break through to Nascent Soul,
Ghosts and immortals still cannot be repaired. They can only abandon this body, reincarnate and get a new one."
You Bing sighed softly after hearing this:
"That's right, the body is decayed and it is difficult for immortals to cure it. How can I do it? Moreover, my body has been implanted into your bones. If it is not really irreversible, you will not abandon it and think of using the white rosette as a
body."
Even for a Jindan Taoist who is a Sword Immortal, there are still two situations: the physical body and the disembodied body. The former can continue to practice and make breakthroughs, while the latter will be trapped for life, unable to make any progress.
After hearing You Bing's words, the White Bone Temple Master fell silent, and the dispute between the two stopped.
Just when You Bing was gathering her thoughts and preparing to warm up her true energy, the White Bone Temple Master suddenly said again: "It's not irreversible."
Hearing this, You Bing was pleasantly surprised and thought in a hurry: "Fellow Taoist, please tell me! Do you know where the elixir can be found?"
Throughout the ages, in the world of mountains and seas, only the rumored elixir can prolong life, and there is no other way.
The Master of White Bone Temple was disappointed: "No, the elixir was a rumor many years ago. It has been in existence since the Immortal Qin period."
"You are lucky. The golden elixir you obtained is actually of the upper third grade. You have crossed the threshold of the upper grade! The upper grade golden elixir is unique. It is not just an imitation of the previous generations like the middle and lower ones. If you are amazingly talented, you may be able to
Find another way.”
You Bing said: "It's not just me who is lucky, but we are all lucky. Fellow Taoist, please elaborate!"
The Master of White Bone Temple: "For people in the martial arts, if their bodies deteriorate, their lives will be ruined. For people in the immortal way, their bodies will decay, and the spirits and spirits will also decay. They cannot be preserved forever. People who practice swordsmanship are the same. In this case, if you don't follow the martial arts, immortal way, and swordsmanship, you should change to another path.
