Chapter 308 The root cause
This time in the dream, two lives followed each other, five thousand years before and after. With a time difference of a hundred times, the current life is also over half a century old.
In this way, the ethereal Grotto-Heaven, the Liang Kingdom cultivates the world.
"Boy, run, run!"
"Am I running?"
"Damn Tianshu Sect, I've recorded this account!"
A chase takes place in the mountains.
A beam of escape light swept forward, hiding when it encountered the earth, hiding when it encountered wood, and diving when it encountered water. Although it was just a small Five Elements Escape Technique, it was used to the extreme, and it finally threw away the several monks who were chasing behind it.
After throwing away the pursuers, he emerged from the light. It was a young man. His face was unshaven and full of traces of vicissitudes of life. After landing, he didn't even bother to breathe. He poured a bottle of elixir into his mouth and started to meditate.
After a long time, he regained his magic power and exhaled a breath of turbidity.
"call!"
"At last the foundation was not damaged!"
"It's his grandma's fault. Why am I so unlucky that I can bump into those remnants of the Tianshu Sect everywhere?"
"It's not like you're not up to par, you're still a Gold Core at seventy or eighty years old. I've already become a coagulated infant at your age, and I can even handle Soul Formation. How can I be like you, being chased by several Gold Cores!"
Facing the dejected Xiao Miao, Mr. Zhen attacked him mercilessly.
In this regard, Xiao Miao simply said: "What can I do? Ningying wants Transcending Tribulation. The Liang Kingdom is so big and I can't find anyone to protect the law. If Transcending Tribulation is injured and someone takes advantage of it..."
"So you are still disappointed. If you can learn my skills well, then even if you can't resist ninety-nine tribulations like that old ghost, resisting four-nine tribulations is still trivial. There is no need to be afraid of this. That?"
"Yes, yes, I'm useless. I can't support the wall with mud. I've lost your face."
Faced with the old man's words, Xiao Miao simply chose to show off: "It would be great if Qingyu Mountain was still there. If the sky falls, there will be tall people to support it. Why do we little people need to worry?"
Fifty years ago, during the Tianshu Sect's battle, the powerful "Stone King" who was so powerful in the Liang Kingdom disappeared, and Qingyu Mountain and its descendants also disappeared. The Liang Kingdom's cultivation world fell into a state of ownerlessness again, with potential for chaos.
Fortunately, Qingyu Mountain plowed the caves and drove out the Evil Cultivator Rogue Cultivator, which shocked people's hearts and left a lingering influence to this day. Therefore, there was no chaos in the world in the end. Several major Gold Core forces rose up and re-established the order of the cultivation world. Although there were disputes from time to time, they managed to do so. It's still peaceful, but my belt is getting tighter.
Unfortunately, this peace only belongs to the ignorant!
Xiao Miao is not in this group, because he knows very well what kind of wolves and tigers are waiting outside this ethereal Grotto-Heaven.
For this reason, he has been eager to improve his strength to cope with the upcoming Grotto-Heaven change in the virtual spirit.
However, the time is too short, and no matter how hard we try, it is difficult to achieve results. Recently, we have provoked the remnants of the Tianshu Sect who narrowly escaped back then. Although the cultivation level has been perfected in Gold Core, they dare not condense the Transcending Tribulation.
What a miserable word.
While Xiao Miao was lamenting.
"call!"
The breeze blew by, and the atmosphere in the mountains suddenly changed.
"!!!"
Xiao Miao's eyes suddenly shrank, her body stiffened, and she looked at the person in front of her with unspeakable astonishment.
"Shi, Dharma King Shi?"
Xiao Miao stood frozen on the ground, in disbelief.
Xu Yang stepped forward, chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist, can you show up to see me?"
"Fellow Daoist?!"
Xiao Miao's eyes narrowed, and she woke up with a start. She looked at the person in front of her, hesitating in her heart and about to move her legs.
Although he didn't know whether the person in front of him was real or fake, he could be sure that the other person's words of Fellow Daoist were not meant for him.
If it's not him, that's...
Xiao Miao's heart skipped a beat, and she even panicked and wanted to run away.
"Don't waste your energy, we can't escape."
At this moment, a sigh came, stopping Xiao Miao's movements.
Xiao Miao was shocked and asked, "How did he find out?"
"If you want others to not know, you have to do nothing yourself. I have helped you so many times, how can there be no traces left? If this person can do it, I will understand it clearly, not to mention seeing the fire."
Mr. Zhen sighed and said quietly: "Let me out. He should not be hostile."
"That's...okay!"
Xiao Miao hesitated for a while, but finally agreed, then raised her hand and released a spiritual light.
The spiritual light flashed, and the figure formed, and soon an old man in white robe appeared.
"I, Xuanzhen, have met Fellow Daoist!"
The old man bowed and said his name.
Xu Yang smiled and got straight to the point: "I have many problems that I don't understand, so I came to ask Fellow Daoist abruptly. I apologize for my rudeness."
Xuanzhen shook his head: "Fellow Daoist's words are serious. I, a young disciple, have received many favors from Fellow Daoist, but I really can't repay them. If Fellow Daoist has any questions, even if he tells me, I will tell you everything I know!"
"this……"
Xiao Miao stood by, watching the two of them, and was amazed in his heart. After so many years of getting along, it was the first time that he saw Mr. Zhen being so polite. He was completely different from the old guy who used to be full of vulgar words.
Sure enough, whether he is vulgar or not depends on the person he is treating. For this King Shi, he was very moral.
"Since Fellow Daoist said so, then I am presumptuous."
Xu Yang smiled and said directly: "To be honest with Fellow Daoist, Ping Dao is not a cultivator from the Northern Territory. He ended up here by chance. He knows nothing about the Grotto-Heaven and the outside world, so he came to ask Fellow Daoist for advice. .”
"oh!?"
Although he had such conjectures in his mind, Xuanzhen was still a little surprised when he heard what Xu Yang said: "Isn't Fellow Daoist a cultivator from the Northern Territory?"
Xu Yang nodded: "Not bad!"
Xuanzhen looked puzzled: "How come you ended up living in this ethereal Grotto-Heaven?"
Xu Yang shook his head and said quietly: "It is inconvenient to disclose this matter. I hope Fellow Daoist can forgive me."
"I am being abrupt."
Xuanzhen also felt that he had made a mistake, apologized, and changed the subject: "Since Fellow Daoist is not a cultivator in the Northern Territory, let me introduce him to Fellow Daoist."
"The Northern Territory is one of the five realms in the human world, and it is also a large realm of cultivation. Hundreds of tribes in the region stand side by side, and hundreds of schools of thought contend. The three tribes of humans, monsters, and demons are the most respected among the hundreds of tribes, and the three religions of Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism are the leaders of the hundreds of tribes..."
Xuanzhen narrated in a deep voice and described the situation of the cultivation world in the Northern Territory to Xu Yang.
Hundreds of races and schools of thought contend!
Three tribes of humans, demons, and three religions: Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism!
There are also many foreign races, as well as hundreds of schools of thought, heresies, and many inheritances, all competing with each other.
What a world of cultivation!
"Among the three religions, Dao is the leader, Xuan is the sect, and Immortal is the respected one!"
"The Ten Great Saints in the Northern Territory have six Great Dao lines, which are the authentic sect of Xuanmen, the True Immortal inheritance, containing the immortal truth of Mahayana and even the Transcending Tribulation, as well as the ancestors of the upper world, with deep merit and prosperous luck, which have been passed down to this day. , the incense has flourished for hundreds of thousands of years!”
"The luck of the remaining four sects is divided by Buddhism and Confucianism. The two sects of Buddhism and Confucianism are also giants!"
"This virtual spirit Grotto-Heaven is related to the Five Elements Immortal Sect, one of the six Great Saint places."
Xuanzhen's words revealed the key point.
"Five Elements Immortal Sect?"
Xu Yang's eyes narrowed and he asked in a deep voice: "How do you explain it?"
"hey-hey!"
Xuanzhen grinned, finally showing his true face, and said with a gossipy face: "This has to start with the Five Elements Immortal Sect's treasure, the Five Directions Merit Pool."
"This Five Directions Merit Pool is ranked Seven. It is a High Grade Immortal Weapon. It can absorb the essence of heaven and earth, contain the essence of the five elements, and turn it into a pool of water. Even a mortal without Spirit Root can soak in it. , can also be reborn and obtain the Five Elements Spirit Root comparable to the High Grade Heavenly Spirit."
"If there is the Five Elements Spirit Root originally, it can be purified and promoted to the Five Elements Spirit Body. Like the Big Dipper Star Body of the Big Dipper Sensong and the Great Sun Fire Body of the Great Sun Sentong, they are both top Spirit Body. Practice The speed is amazing and the luck is extraordinary. There are no bottlenecks before Body Integration, and it is even possible to enter Mahayana.”
"This Five Elements Merit Pool can cultivate the Five Elements Spirit Body. It is an important inheritance tool and the foundation. It is also the key to the glory of the Five Elements Immortal Sect for hundreds of thousands of years."
"But just a thousand years ago, a traitor appeared in the Five Elements Immortal Sect!"
Xuanzhen said vividly: "This traitor is Lord Xu Ling. This man is extremely talented. Innate Five Elements Spirit Body, he was introduced to the sect by the Five Elements Immortal Sect early on and was established as Saint Child."
"This man has lived up to expectations. He entered the realm of Body Integration at the age of three thousand, even surpassing other Saint Children of the Sacred Land. It is said that he is expected to enter Mahayana before he is five thousand years old, adding another Immortal to the Five Elements Immortal Sect!"
"But it was such a Saint Child who had great expectations from the public, but he eventually betrayed the Five Elements Immortal Sect."
After saying that, Xuanzhen smiled and looked at Xu Yang: "Fellow Daoist, do you know the reason?"
Xu Yang groaned, then said: "But it has something to do with the Five Directions Merit Pool?"
"good!"
Xuanzhen nodded: "I don't know where Lord Xu Ling got an adventure. He actually bought a High Grade Immortal Spirit Level Five Elements Immortal Tree. It is said that this tree can bear Five Elements Immortal Fruit. After taking it, Five Elements Immortal Fruit will be produced." The Elements Spirit Body will transform into the Five Elements Immortal Spirit Body, which will not only enable it to enter the Mahayana state steadily, but will also lead to the Celestial Immortal state in the future.”
"Xu Lingjun was overjoyed to get this Spirit Root, but this Spirit Root is not yet mature. If he wants to form the Five Elements Immortal Fruit, he still needs the support of the Five Elements rare treasures. With a change of mind, Xu Lingjun has made plans in five directions. On the pool of merit.”
"But he couldn't say it clearly. After all, it was something that could lead to Celestial Immortal. So he used his identity as Saint Child to secretly cultivate this Five Elements Immortal Spirit Root when he entered the Five Directions Merit Pool to practice."
"There were no problems at first, but as the Five Elements Fairy Spirit Tree grew day by day, the demand for the Five Elements treasures also grew. Finally, when it was about to mature, it actually penetrated the spring of the Five Directions Merit Pool and absorbed this The original power of High Grade Immortal Weapon.”
Xuanzhen said in a lively voice: "That's it. As soon as the incident happened, even the ancestor of the Transcending Tribulation of the Five Elements Immortal Sect was alarmed. He rushed over in a hurry, only to find that Lord Xu Ling had already brought the Five Elements Immortal Spirit Tree. He fled, and the Five Directions Merit Pool was left with a big hole, his origins were greatly damaged, and his rank was greatly reduced."
"When the ancestors of the Five Elements Immortal Sect saw this, they were furious. The two Mahayana Immortals rushed out in hot pursuit, hoping to capture Lord Xu Ling, take back the Five Elements Immortal Spirit Tree, and repair the damage to the Five Directions Merit Pool."
"But Lord Void Spirit is also a genius. With many means, he managed to escape the pursuit of the two Mahayana. Although he was seriously injured to death in the end, he still arranged to create this Void Spirit Grotto-Heaven."
Although he is the body of a soul, Xuanzhen still took a breath when he said this: "This Void Spirit Grotto-Heaven was arranged by Lord Void Ling. It not only contains all the treasures of Lord Void Ling, but also the treasures of Lord Void Ling." The Five Elements Immortal Root and an ancient Immortal Mansion obtained by chance, contain countless treasures."
"The Five Elements Immortal Sect has been looking for the whereabouts of Lord Xu Ling. The Great Saints in the Northern Territory are also very interested in this. There are even rumors circulating among the people, attracting cultivators from all walks of life to search everywhere, and I am one of them."
Xuanzhen's eyes turned cold, with a hint of hatred: "I am also the Spirit Root of the Five Elements. Although I have not become a member of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, I have made some achievements based on this. I have also mastered the formation method, which is also the best in the Northern Territory. Considered number one."
"But how could he be so ignorant and illiterate that he met Zhou Tianshu, the sanctimonious and ambitious Saint Child of the Beidou Immortal Sect!"
Xuanzhen gritted his teeth and said in a cold voice: "This man is sanctimonious and ambitious. He once explored the ruins of the Immortal Mansion that Lord Xu Ling encountered by chance, so he deliberately made friends with me and then took me to the ruins of the Immortal Mansion."
"Although all the treasures in the ruins of the Immortal Mansion have been taken away by Lord Xu Ling, there is still a technique engraved on the Immortal Monument. It is something that cannot be moved, so it was left behind."
"Zhou Tianshu and the others brought me here, and asked me to practice the skills on the Immortal Tablet, and then use them to sense the location of the Five Elements Immortal Spirit Root, and finally found the ethereal Grotto-Heaven!"
"Subsequently, this man, together with the two old Body Integration ghosts who were protecting him, destroyed the old man's physical body and shattered his Primordial Spirit. Only this remnant soul was left, which was stored in a rare treasure. Flow into this ethereal Grotto-Heaven."
Xuanzhen took a breath and looked at Xu Yang again: "This is the origin of the virtual spirit Grotto-Heaven and me."
"I see."
Xu Yang nodded and asked again: "What about the Five Elements Cultivation Technique spread among the cultivators of Liang Kingdom?"
Xuanzhen smiled bitterly and said: "It is the inheritance of the Five Elements Immortal Sect. That Zhou Tianshu ordered his disciples to spread these techniques, hoping to use them to lead to the Five Elements Immortal Mansion hidden by Lord Xu Ling, or the re-cultivation body of Lord Xu Ling, but I It seems that his efforts are in vain, no matter how bad Lord Xu Ling is, he will not be fished out by such means."
In this regard, Xu Yang was noncommittal and only said: "Pindao is also interested in this technique. I wonder if Fellow Daoist is willing to teach it. I can exchange the same technique. In addition, there are some Law Treasure elixirs here..."
After saying that, he swept his sleeves and robes, and many spiritual objects appeared.
When Xuanzhen saw this, he had a troubled expression on his face: "To be honest with Fellow Daoist, the Immortal Monument has great magical power to restrict the soul, and the techniques are not allowed to be spread outside. Therefore, I can only tell you the location of the Immortal Monument, and there is really nothing else I can do."
His words were calm, but he still felt nervous. Xiao Miao, who was beside him, secretly clenched his fists, fearing that the Master Stone in front of him would turn against him and search for the souls of their master and disciple.
"That's such a shame."
Xu Yang also sighed after hearing this: "Thank you Fellow Daoist for clarifying my doubts. I'll take these as a return gift."
After saying that, he swept out a bunch of spiritual objects and landed them in front of Xiao Miao.
"this……"
Xiao Miao looked at the Law Treasure and elixir in front of her, looking nervous and at a loss.
Xuanzhen smiled bitterly, cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist is indeed a true moral practitioner, which is admirable."
Xu Yang smiled and didn't say much: "Pindao captured a group of Tianshu monks before and learned through the soul search method that the incident of Grotto-Heaven, a virtual spirit, has been exposed. Now the outside world is turbulent and heroes are gathering. The Great Saint has heard the news and has come. After the ethereal Grotto-Heaven is broken, there will be a big battle. Fellow Daoist has been prepared for it."
After saying that, without waiting for the two of them to react, he flicked his sleeves and hands, causing the clouds to rise and the fog to rise, and he rode the wind and swayed away.
"this……"
Looking at the figure that was getting further and further away and finally hidden in the sky, Xiao Miao and Xuan Zhen looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.
How could this Dharma King Shi be so free and easy, coming and leaving whenever he said he wanted?
Doesn't he care about Lord Xu Ling's Immortal Palace legacy, the Five Elements Immortal Spirit Root that makes all the Great Saints and Body Integration Mahayana take notice?
Is this person a cultivator?
