Li Dazhi, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were somewhat hollow, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Behind the screen, Xiao Yue and Wenrou, who were drinking tea and chatting with Mu Ningning, quickly entered.
Xiao Yue hurriedly asked: "What's wrong?"
Li Dazhi glanced at Mu Ningning, and his words immediately changed. He smiled and said, "I fell asleep while meditating just now. I had a nightmare. I dreamed that Ping An was surrounded by a group of women. It's nothing."
Does Jinxian still have nightmares?
Wenrou immediately understood and helped Li Dazhi cover up a few words, and then took Mu Ningning outside the screen to continue drinking tea, chatting and eating snacks.
Xiao Yue sat next to Li Dazhi and asked in a voice: "But what happened?"
"Just now I seemed to see that Ping An went to a place full of blood."
Li Dazhi said in his voice:
"Both of us have a sense of heaven, so when I saw this kind of scene, it was certainly not unintentional.
"No, I still have to go back."
Xiao Yue hurriedly said: "Husband, the inner heaven is about to target you, what's the use of going back?"
"You can see the blood!"
Li Dazhi frowned tightly:
"Don't let Fairy Ziyao know, I'll sneak out later using transformation."
"You also have to think about yourself," Xiao Yue said, "Don't worry, I'll ask Fairy Ziyao how the current safety situation is."
Li Dazhi thought carefully and then could only nod.
The Kongmeng Realm was too far away from the main world. Without the speed of the roc, it would have taken him nearly two days to get back.
The only one who can summon the roc is Fairy Ziyao, also known as the Queen Mother of the West.
Xiao Yue stood up and left quickly. After turning out of the screen, she said a few warm words to Mu Ningning, and on the pretext of looking for some tea and snacks, she drove to the Heavenly Court Station in the clouds.
But Xiao Yue's journey was destined to be in vain.
Without him, Fairy Ziyao wrapped herself in fairy light and was meditating there.
After Li Ping'an protected the female slave and was swallowed up by the Inner Heaven Dao, the Outer Heaven Dao became violently turbulent. The dispute between the Outer Heaven Dao and the Inner Heaven Dao became more intense. The Outer Heaven Dao who had been standing by and watched finally came to an end.
At this moment, Zi Yao has returned all his mind to his original body, trying to find a way to rescue Li Ping'an.
She reacted quickly enough at that time;
But when she was about to rush over, Li Ping'an was suddenly surrounded by the power of heaven. Li Ping'an's figure almost dodged in front of the female demon, allowing her to miss the target by a hair's breadth.
Li Dazhi's perception was not wrong.
Li Ping'an is now in a vast pool of blood.
…
‘This is the illusion of inner heaven?’
Li Ping'an sat cross-legged in a small boat on the endless bloody water, looking at the situation everywhere.
The so-called flat boat is actually just a wooden board of unknown material.
At this moment, the phantom of the Xuantian Tower was suspended above Li Ping'an's head, and a thin film covered Li Ping'an's skin, isolating the invisible power of the inner heaven.
It felt like he was in the stomach of a giant beast, surrounded by terrible stomach acid.
Looking around, this bloody lake looks like a lake. There are some faint gray traces in the distance, which seem to be some land.
Li Ping'an was barely able to cast spells at this moment, but there was no spiritual energy outside. All he could call upon was the mana stored in his body.
Some bad news at the moment:
He didn’t know where the female slave had gone;
After his immortal consciousness leaves the immortal light covering his body, it will be immediately decomposed and eroded. Ordinary treasures cannot be summoned, spells cannot be cast, and he cannot even control the air. Now he can only rely on the power of his physical body;
He was unable to contact Heaven.
There's some good news here too:
He can paddle the water with his hands and make the board float toward land;
There are many spiritual elixirs stored in the Cang Yue Pearl. He can directly transfer the Cang Yue Pearl from the spiritual platform to various parts of the body to release the elixirs, thus maintaining the fullness of his own immortal power;
The Immortal Falling Seal can be summoned out of the body to hit people with bricks, but the Soul-Severing Banner cannot appear;
Besides, the biggest good news is...
He is still alive.
The Xuantian Tower is still functioning at this moment, and for some reason the Xuantian Tower has an entity and is no longer just a shadow.
Li Ping'an looked inside the spiritual platform and could clearly see Jin Yun starting to counterattack Hui Yun in an all-out manner.
After he was devoured, the Outer Heaven Dao, which originally stood idly by and waited for the Inner Heaven Dao to harm all sentient beings, finally tried again to suppress the Inner Heaven Dao.
The incense and merit gathered from the Tiandi Temple and the mountain gods still continue to provide ‘ammunition’ for Jinyun.
He made the right bet.
Li Ping'an didn't think that his external way of heaven was very important. He had already thought about it very clearly when he was living in the inner way of heaven.
Now both the inner and outer heaven need the power of incense. Incense is to the heaven just like spiritual power is to the Qi Refiner.
The fulcrum for the outer heaven to obtain incense is the golden cloud in his body and the Temple of the Heavenly Emperor;
As long as the statues in the Temple of the Heavenly Emperor cannot be replaced in a short time and the human race continues to support him as the new Heavenly Emperor, the outer heaven must protect him.
The probability that he can solve the problem of inner heaven may not exceed 30%;
But the probability that the outer heaven will protect him cannot be less than 90%.
'Then, what should I do now?'
Li Ping'an frowned and pondered, looking at the land getting closer and closer, and continued to lower his body and paddle the water with his palms.
This blood was not real blood, and it had no corrosive power. It also had a crystal clear feel, and Li Ping'an couldn't smell any fishy smell.
The canoe was still a hundred feet away from the shore. Li Ping'an stood up, tentatively bent his legs and bounced. He easily floated a hundred feet away and landed steadily on a gray rock.
'She should be able to rely on physical fighting, so hurry up and find the female demon. This avenue of disaster cannot be swallowed up by the inner heaven. She is the daughter of Senior Brother Xuanyuan, so she can't just die without saving her.'
Li Ping'an groaned for a few times, then placed the Fallen Immortal Seal, which had most of its power sealed by the Inner Heaven Dao, in the palm of his hand. He then pulled down the Xuantian Tower, shrunk it, tied it to the Dao hairpin with a hairband, and began to search everywhere carefully.
This is a small island, and Li Ping'an quickly completed the exploration.
There is no grass growing on the island, and some broken wooden boards and stones can be seen here and there, as if a great hall had been smashed from the air and smashed to pieces here.
Standing on the hill in the middle of the island, Li Ping'an relied on his eyesight to search everywhere.
The gray sky was a little low, making Li Ping'an feel a little dull. Occasionally, a breeze would blow by, and the blood around the island would make slight ripples.
Suddenly, Li Ping'an's pupils shrank.
About ten miles away from him, another small gray island was covered in golden light. Several golden chains appeared at the end of the golden light, and the chains spread towards the sky.
Faintly visible, above the gray sky, a magnificent palace was floating.
When the female slave was swallowed, she was bound by such chains.
'Could it be a trap?'
Li Pingan blinked.
He has already entered the inner heaven, is he still afraid of any traps there?
Li Ping'an jumped directly from the hill, picked up some wooden boards on the island, tore them into long strips, and made a simple canoe and wooden oar.
Although his cultivation focuses on Yuan Shen, he has already reached the half-step Golden Immortal realm, and his Tao body strength is quite good.
The two wooden oars were thrown out by him, and a red line appeared on the bloody water. It took only a moment to reach the distance of ten miles.
Approaching the small island, Li Ping'an could clearly see the situation above.
The island is still a lifeless gray background.
A figure was trapped on a stone pillar in the center of the island, but the golden light was too strong, and Li Ping'an couldn't see it clearly.
‘You don’t look like a nemesis, do you? Nvbang has a great figure, and his hair is wavy and curly that is rare in ancient times. This guy has disheveled hair and a tall stature. Why does he look like a man?’
Li Ping'an thought for a while and decided to go to the island and test the current power of Xuantian Tower.
He quietly touched the second island.
An invisible resistance suddenly appeared in front of him, but this resistance was very light. As the Xuantian Tower trembled slightly, the resistance disappeared instantly.
Li Pingan walked half a circle around the island, picked up a wooden board to use as a shield, and carefully stepped into the land filled with golden light.
If the golden light encounters a natural enemy, it will scatter to the left and right.
Getting closer, Li Ping'an immediately saw the figure in the center of the golden light clearly. He couldn't help but open his mouth and almost cursed.
Ancestor Styx!
There is a stone pillar in the center of this small island. The stone pillar is carved with complicated patterns of the avenue, exuding a strong power of the inner heaven.
Ancestor Styx was leaning against a stone pillar, completely naked, in the shape of the character "太". His limbs and neck were surrounded by golden chains, and two huge golden hooks penetrated his bones.
Li Ping'an had some enlightenment in his heart.
The pattern of the avenue imprinted on the stone pillar is the killing avenue of the Styx Ancestor.
If you can meditate on the naked Ancestor Styx and the stone pillars here, you may be able to understand some magical powers and practice methods for killing Dao.
'Wonderful.'
Li Ping'an raised his eyebrows slightly and squatted behind the wooden board to look carefully for a while.
That's it?
Is this the ancestor of Styx?
At this level, how can we still be in harmony with the Tao? Isn’t this just a proper way of sending benefits to the Inner Heaven Tao?
Just give it to the ancestor for nothing.
If Li Ping'an hadn't been worried that he would drive away the power of the inner heaven that had banned Ancestor Minghe in the past, he would have gone over and downgraded Ancestor Minghe's posture from 'Tai' to 'Big' to vent his anger.
Eh?
What about Yuantu Sword and Abi Sword?
Li Ping'an moved his index finger and looked around, but found no other objects.
He quietly stepped back and glanced at the sky for a few times, where he could see the Immortal Palace in the sky.
Should ‘Xihe’ be in it?
What is hidden in the Immortal Palace?
Li Ping'an was puzzled and it was not advisable to act rashly at this moment. He quietly retreated with a wooden shield and started searching again.
About half an hour later, Li Ping'an arrived at the third small island. There was a huge broken sword in the center of the small island, and the blade of the broken sword pointed diagonally towards the sky.
It took almost no effort to climb to the top of the broken sword;
He looked around and found that this lake formed by blood water also had an edge, and the edge was a gray mist, which was somewhat similar to the Dragon Ancient World in his impression.
There were twenty or thirty islands with only a piece of ashes within his sight range, and seven or eight islands had golden chains on them.
These chains spread above the gray sky, and there should be fairy temples hidden on them.
Where is the female demon?
Li Ping'an sighed in his heart, no matter where he was, he would look for it.
If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools.
Li Ping'an gave full play to his weapon-making skills, collected some stones and wood blocks from various places, and built a simple hand-cranked propeller.
He drew up a simple map in his mind, marking the location of the Styx Ancestor.
As long as he successfully rescued the female demon, he would have to think about how to make Ancestor Styx "big".
After a while, Li Ping'an sat on a larger wooden board and quickly shook the joystick with his right hand. The two wooden boards rotated like fans, creating afterimages.
A blood line shuttled through the bloody lake, reflecting small islands filled with golden light and hanging chains.
This process, in Li Ping'an's opinion, is like drawing a blind box.
Nothing thrilling, but very exciting.
For example, on the second island he visited that was filled with golden light, he discovered King Yinkui and King Cai Lin. The two great demons showed their true bodies, and were each imprisoned by chains on two stone pillars. The complicated characters on the stone pillars carried their paths.
On the third golden island, Li Pingan found a group of witches.
The 'treatment' of these witch clansmen is far inferior to that of the Styx Ancestor. The golden hooks penetrated the bones of the lute, and each of them seemed to be asleep.
'Have I entered the body of that giant crow?'
Li Ping'an suddenly felt enlightened and accelerated his search for the female slayer.
On the islands of golden light, the creatures transformed into slaves by the inner heaven were all trapped in chains.
As he continued to explore, the entire blood lake gradually lit up.
The map drawn by Li Ping'an from the Lingtai is also gradually improving, and some simple drawings are also drawn on the map.
'If I save all these creatures, will the giant crow wither?'
Li Ping'an thought so.
Suddenly, the entire Blood Lake trembled slightly, and several halls surrounded by fairy lights fell down from the clouds.
Li Ping'an felt something in his heart. He looked up and saw a shadow of a Tai Chi diagram appearing deep in the sky.
Archmage!
However, before he could express his appreciation for the awesomeness of the innate treasure, beams of golden light bloomed from above the clouds. At least hundreds of immortal temples erupted with beams of light at the same time, instantly sealing the gap opened by the phantom of the Tai Chi Diagram.
The illusion of inner heaven cannot be broken except by the leader.
'Okay, you still have to rely on yourself.'
Li Pingan raised his hand to rub the tip of his nose, took a breath, and continued rowing in the Blood Lake.
The hard work paid off. Li Pingan searched about one-seventh of the Blood Lake and successfully found...
A magic cow.
The strong body of the Crazy Mountain King Niu Ben Ben is lying on a stubborn rock.
The reason why Li Ping'an stopped for it was not because he was attracted by Kuangshan King's body of beef, but because Kuangshan King was bound by the power of heaven and was the 'simplest' among all the masters.
There was only a thin chain on it, and the hook at the tip of the chain penetrated his nose.
‘Let’s see if we can rescue Tiannu, it’s also a practice.’
Li Ping'an thought to himself:
'What should I do if this thing wakes up and loses control? Take down the Immortal Seal and smash it? If I rely solely on the power of the Dao body, I should not be his opponent.'
'But it should be the weakest among these golden immortal monsters. It looks easier to deal with than the giant python like the Color Scale King.'
Li Ping'an quickly made up his mind and quietly approached the Kuangshan King, holding a wooden board and pressing forward step by step.
The golden light keeps fading.
The Xuantian Pagoda on Li Ping'an's head trembled one after another, and wisps of mysterious Taoist charm spread out like ink.
All the golden light was forced back into the thin chain.
Li Ping'an glanced at the stone pillar behind the demonic cow...it had no value for understanding...then he aimed at the chain and threw the Fallen Immortal Seal.
Ding!
The Fallen Immortal Seal collided with the chain, and shallow marks appeared on the chain.
Li Ping'an thought carefully, and the reminder from the Tiangong Wanxiang Picture Old Artifact came from the bottom of his heart:
"Master, this is the land of heaven, and it requires the use of meritorious treasures... Why don't you try smashing the Fallen Immortal Seal?"
Li Ping'an asked: "Won't I be eroded by the power of the inner heaven?"
The old weapon spirit reminded: "The outer heaven is protecting you, and the power of the inner heaven near you has been suppressed."
Li Pingan nodded slowly, carefully walked to the stone pillar, frowned and picked up the chain.
Nothing happens.
He was determined in the Tao, and summoned the Immortal Falling Seal at will. He looked around, and simply pulled the chain to the forehead of the demonic cow, which looked very strong. He raised the Immortal Falling Seal, and the power of the Tao body burst out, fiercely.
