Chapter 65 Viewing the sky and sea from the sapphire altar
Buzz!
Buzz~!
The rich bells echoed among the mountains.
The small mountain gate of the Green Jade Altar was filled with people. From the disciples to the elders, everyone stood up after hearing the bell and looked at each other, some with excited expressions and some with solemn expressions.
On the huge purple air platform, hundreds of people gathered here, sitting in rows, all looking at the Taoist platform that was about nine feet high in the middle.
On the Taoist platform, an old Taoist man was sitting in the center, his face was solemn, and he seemed to be unmoving.
Beside him, there were four elders from the Jade Altar sitting on each side. These were all the masters of the Jade Altar now.
Nine deities and nine radiances...
Yang Yu, who was sitting quietly in a corner, looked at this scene and felt a little strange in his heart.
The Jade Altar, one of the Seventy-two Blessed Places of the Nine Tribulations, was a powerful force that once ruled all realms. It has been controlled by enlightened people throughout the ages.
It's like this now, but the sun is fading, it's simply unbearable to look at.
"Taiyi saves people from suffering, and seeks his voice from all directions to help them out. He is another supreme giant, but I don't know if this one is among the 'Twelve'?"
Yang Prison said to himself.
For more than a thousand years, he has been very dedicated to searching for ancient secrets. It cannot be said that he knows all of those famous giants, but most of them must have heard of them.
The Taiyi God who saves suffering behind the sapphire altar is one of the thirty-six gods. It is said that he is a giant who is qualified to accompany the "Great God".
According to the legend, the person is still vaguely above the Nine Extremes God of War, who governs the promotion of gods and immortals. When the Great Heavenly Lord is absent, it is almost said that he holds the power of heaven and earth on his behalf.
Of course, there is a lot of confusion in the legend, and there are even many rumors that this God who saves suffering is also known as the Qinghua Emperor of the East Pole...
But or not, Yang Yu couldn't figure it out.
Having seen the leader of the Five Emperors, who understood the mysteries of multiple levels of power, it was difficult for him not to doubt whether the various famous and powerful people in the legend were the pseudonyms of someone else.
But if it is really that person’s ‘other incarnation’…
"This morning, I was sitting on the jade altar quietly watching the changes in the heaven and earth. When the gods flew to the underworld, I heard the decrees of the gods!"
Headmaster Qingyu is an old Taoist with a slightly dark complexion. His cultivation level is better than that of You Fengzi. He seems to have touched the gate of the Eight Extremes.
His voice was quite bright, echoing throughout the Purple Air Platform:
"My Qingyu Altar originates from Patriarch Chen. However, Patriarch Chen is the master of Qinghua Changletian and Miaoyan Palace in the upper realm, ranking among the gods!"
At this point, the old Taoist paused slightly, and there was an uproar and gasps from the Ziqi stage.
Many people were really shocked. They never thought that their own sect, which could hardly hold on to the mountain gate, would have such a history.
Of course, those who had already known about it were also talking about it, naturally to give this headmaster face.
"Our Green Jade Altar has a long heritage and is famous for its Nine Tribulations fashion. Although it has declined slightly now, with the presence of the Heavenly Lord from the Upper Realm, we will naturally reach the top again one day!"
Headmaster Qingyu’s eyes were extremely bright, and his voice became more solemn:
"Tianzun's decree..."
"Disciple, respectfully welcome the Heavenly Lord's decree!"
On the Ziqi Stage, a group of Taoists sitting cross-legged bowed in greeting with a respectful attitude.
Immortals and Buddhists do not have the rule of kneeling and bowing. Even if you are meeting the Great God, bowing down and cupping your hands is still a sufficient courtesy.
Of course, if you are very respectful, there are also rules such as prostrating yourself, bowing to the ground, etc.
"Tianzun's decree..."
Sitting in a corner, Yang Yu watched with cold eyes. Although he was here, his perception seemed to be high above the nine heavens.
With an absolutely calm attitude, he overlooked the entire sapphire altar.
The body of chaos has a great increase in all kinds of magical powers, but the one that benefits the most is his perception.
Before the headmaster of Qingyutan opened his mouth, Yang Yu had already 'perceived' what he wanted to say, and could even trace the origin of this 'law'.
‘Is there really a law?’
With a startling glance, Yang Yu instantly exited the state of perception. He couldn't help but be shocked. He noticed an ancient aura that was beyond this world.
This is strange...
Yang Yu frowned slightly.
Today's Green Jade Altar can't even be considered as three or two big cats and kittens. People have returned from various fairy mountains and blessed places, and celebrities from all walks of life are coming here in droves. Now, although the Green Jade Altar is not considered the last, it is still among the lowest.
No matter whether the Heavenly Lord has returned or not, I am afraid that this jade altar will be difficult to use and will be exposed instead...
Or should I say, incense?
"Tianzun's decree requires us to close the mountain and close the door, quietly recite Taoist scriptures to nourish our mind, and shelter the city under our jurisdiction. We are not allowed to fight with others, and we are not allowed to expand our power..."
"ah?"
Hearing this, except for Yang Yu, all the disciples of Qingyutan changed their faces. They looked around each other and felt extremely disappointed in their hearts.
In today's world, the Jade Altar is in a precarious situation, and even the mountain gate can hardly be saved. Therefore, after hearing the decree of the Heavenly Lord, they were so excited that they could not suppress their excitement.
But this...
"Why did the Heavenly Lord issue such a decree?"
Some elders were greatly disappointed.
Including Youfengzi, all the elders frowned, and some even looked extremely ugly.
"Today's sky and sea are changing every day, and the spiritual tide is higher than ever. I don't know how many fortunes there are. Opportunities come with the rolling spiritual tide. How can we retreat in such a big world?!"
"Pindao has sensed the arrival of his Tao Fruit in the sky a few days ago. The Eight Pole is not far away. How can he close the mountain and close the door?!"
"Headmaster, the disciple's promotion ceremony is only half a step away. You must not give up halfway!"
…
When someone speaks, everyone responds.
The elders, true disciples and disciples were all in an uproar and spoke out one after another. It was quite noisy for a while.
"quiet!"
Headmaster Qingyu yelled angrily, his magic power surged, suppressing all the noise, his face became more and more serious:
"Are you the only ones who can detect where the opportunity lies? I have also noticed where the rank map is, but..."
The angry scolding calmed down, but it was still cold:
"It is the decree of the Heavenly Lord that the calamity of the opening of the heaven is coming. If we do not guard the mountain gate quietly, we will surely perish in the calamity wave and become the ghosts of the scapegoat!"
"The catastrophe of opening the sky?!"
There was dead silence on the Purple Air Stage, and Yang Yu frowned deeply. Before Headmaster Qingyu mentioned this matter, he already knew the calamity mentioned in the decree.
This brought back bad memories for him.
Narrow death and rebirth are calamities, nine deaths and rebirth are calamities, and ten deaths and no rebirth are also calamities.
Tribulation does not change depending on the state of practice, and we are also aware of the calamity. Mortals may only encounter wolves, tigers and leopards, but what practitioners have to face is unknown.
In a nutshell, there is no change based on the level of cultivation. Anyone who detects the calamity will definitely be in danger of death...
"What is the catastrophe of opening the sky?"
Yang Yu didn't speak, but a true disciple already asked.
"One calamity leads to one path, one calamity leads to one day. This path is not the great road, and this heaven is not the so-called heaven in all realms..."
Headmaster Qingyu's tone became majestic and sacred, and this humble old Taoist seemed to turn into a statue in the temple at this moment:
"The so-called calamity begins at the beginning of the sky and ends at the end. During this period, whether it is 840 million years or 480 million years, it is all a calamity..."
"And the catastrophe of opening the sky, as the name suggests, is a terrifying catastrophe that will only occur when the heaven of this tribulation is about to be born!"
"No one can stop it, and no one can stop it. Until the way of heaven returns, everyone may die on the side of the road, and the master of great supernatural powers will also die and disappear..."
…
The next day, Qingyu Altar was officially closed.
When the mist enveloped the mountains, all the disciples looked reluctant to give up, and many people disobeyed orders and sneaked out of the mountains.
Regarding the latter, both the leader of the Qingyu Altar and the other elders looked on with cold eyes, and even two elders gritted their teeth and retreated.
But many people breathed a sigh of relief.
With the great formation set up according to Tianzun's instructions, we should be able to deal with that formidable enemy no matter what, right?
"Did fellow Taoist Wukong actually stay?"
Youfengzi didn't go to see the headmaster setting up the formation, his attention was not far away from Yang Yu.
Seeing that the thigh of the Holy Spirit had no intention of leaving, he was overjoyed, but also a little doubt arose in his heart.
Once the Holy Spirit recorded in the legend is born, he will first travel to various places to search for other Holy Spirits.
this……
"Um."
Yang Yu nodded and did not explain, but quietly watched Master Qingyu set up the formation.
He had only been in Tianhai for less than a day, so he naturally wouldn't be in a hurry to do anything. At least, he had to wait until the transformation of the body of chaos was completely completed.
Until then, movement is worse than silence.
"I, the Qingyu Altar, will never treat my fellow Taoists badly!"
Youfengzi was naturally overjoyed.
When a Holy Spirit grows up, it will at least reach the level of a Great Divine Power Master. For the Jade Altar at this moment, it is enough to suppress the sect's spirit.
Seeing that Yang Yu kept his eyes on the formation, he hurriedly introduced:
"This formation should be a variation of the Taiyi Qing micro-formation. It is a secret formation in our sect. Unfortunately, the 'Blue Jade Immortal Treasure' has disappeared. Otherwise, once this formation is deployed, even a person with great supernatural powers can
Strangulate it!"
"Taiyi Qingwei..."
As Yang Yu opened and closed his eyes, the texture and even the deep mystery of this square formation had been imprinted in his heart.
This formation starts from within the mountain gate and runs across the mountains. It corresponds to the celestial phenomena above and the earth's veins below. It can be regarded as one of the best.
But to him, this formation is nothing.
Tianzun's guidance does not mean that Tianzun is setting up a formation, and this formation is not a large formation of Tianzun level at all.
And even if, Yang Yu thought to himself, he could use the body of chaos to bridge all kinds of things, this formation would not be able to stop him.
"call!"
After a long time, Master Qingyu slowly lowered his hand. His slightly dark complexion turned pale because he had consumed too much mana.
But he still felt relieved. The enemy he expected had not arrived...
"The devil didn't come?"
Not only Headmaster Qingyu, but also the elders who were facing a formidable enemy breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but look at each other in disbelief.
"It's a pity that we have so many backup plans."
Some elders also shook their heads.
"Of course it would be best if you don't come. We are practicing cultivation, not to fight to the death with others."
Master Qingyu glared at him, turned around and disappeared into the void, but went to meditate.
"More than ten years ago, a demon from nowhere targeted us and clamored to take away our mountain gate..."
You Jingzi explained casually and then said:
"There are dozens of big cities and hundreds of mountains and rivers inside and outside the gate of Qingyutan Mountain. Although the mountains are closed, it will not be boring. But I don't know where you want to go?"
"Um……"
Yang Yu looked around the Qingyutan Mountain Gate, his eyes paused for a moment, and then landed on a building not far behind the Purple Air Terrace:
"Where is that?"
"There……"
Youfengzi's eyelids twitched:
"That place seems to be a place where books were stored in ancient times..."
"Forbidden area?"
Yang Yu glanced at him, who smiled awkwardly and said reluctantly:
"It's not like I can't go..."
…
…
"Taiyi Qing Micro Formation? It's a pretty good formation, but unfortunately, even if Taiyi sets it up himself, he can't stop me!"
The setting sun was about to set, and a ray of afterglow shone on the purple air platform. In the shadow, there were slight ripples, and a shadow sneered:
"How do these idiots know that I came in before you closed the mountain?"
Buzz!
A wisp of demonic shadow walked out of the dark place and glanced mockingly at the fog that shrouded the mountain gate. However, its gaze also fell on the building not far behind the Purple Air Platform.
"That breath is very much like the Holy Spirit? The newborn Holy Spirit? His mind seems to be extremely pure, with almost no distracting thoughts..."
Demon Shadow murmured to himself, somewhat amazed:
"It seems that this is not an ordinary Holy Spirit. Could it be that it is a God-level Holy Spirit, the kind that is born with a life span of billions?"
The demon's eyes flickered.
Within that building, he felt the endless majestic vitality. All the living beings within the hundred thousand miles covered by the Jade Altar array together were probably not as huge as they could have been.
An enlightened person is nothing more than this.
There is no way this is an ordinary creature...
"When tribulations arise and tribulations end, the devil rises and dies. Is this my destiny? I am born with the Holy Spirit. Even if I cannot seize it, it can be refined and transformed into an incarnation, but it will be of great benefit..."
With just a thought, the demonic shadow has crossed the purple air platform.
On the way, there were many disciples and even elders passing by Qingyutan, but no one saw this wisp of demonic shadow.
The one who was so grandly walked out of the forbidden area.
"Huh?"
When they got here, the demonic figure seemed to be aware of it and raised its hand to erase the pair of door gods posted outside the forbidden area.
"You almost saw through my Xingzang? Could it be that someone in Yulei has attained this Shentu? Or..."
Mo Ying was a little surprised, but didn't care too much.
It is true that he is not in his prime now, but even so, Shen Tu Yu Lei is nothing to him.
In the next moment, he had reached the forbidden area and saw the creature sitting quietly among the ruins, seemingly comprehending the aura of the ruins.
"But when you are just born, you actually have the ability to perceive the traces of time? Incredible, incredible..."
The demonic figure's eyes lit up, and immediately following the absorbed spiritual energy, it sank into the body of the creature:
"Such a treasure deserves to be in my hands!"
However, the next moment, his thoughts suddenly froze.
What appeared in his perception was an endless "star sea" in which various colors of light intertwined.
Not only the various magical powers, but also the aura of the great magical powers, there is a presence like a ghost on this sea of stars.
"Rank Dual Wielding?!"
The demonic figure was shocked, and his expression immediately changed:
"Who are you?!"
Buzz!
In the interweaving endless light, Yang Yu's will came here, and he looked down at the demonic figure with cold eyes.
If the latter is struck by thunder, they will turn pale in horror and run away without thinking:
"You, you are the Lord of Demons, the one who conquers demons in the Nine Heavens?!"
