Chapter 399: Refining the Cauldron of Merit and Eliminating the Seeds of Cause and Effect!

In Canglan City, an avenue paved with golden lotus shadows leads directly to the central square of the inner city.

With the appearance of the golden lotus, a mysterious and solemn aura followed.

The people in the city who were crowded on both sides stopped their whispers and looked to the east in silence.

Soon, a row of Canglan Sect disciples who were leading the way appeared first.

At this time, they had put on a purple cloud-patterned robe specially used for major events held by the sect. They wore Canglan crowns on their heads and Qingyun boots on their feet.

His expression was extremely solemn.

The leader was Lan Ze. He held a whisk and waved it left and right, causing the whisk to emit white clouds.

Following him was An Zhengcheng, who carried a huge purple-gold copper furnace with three arms-thick Wentianxiang pillars on it.

Each of the disciples at the back held various ritual instruments.

These were all urgently sent over by the elders of the sect on the way.

The disciples who were waiting for the opening gradually entered the outer city.

A huge monument finally appeared outside the city.

The huge stele emits purple light that reaches the sky, connecting with the purple air that permeates the sky. The inscriptions on it are also golden, making it impossible to see the handwriting.

As the monument approached, the sect leader, the great elder and others who were carrying the monument also appeared.

There are seven people in total, and the lowest cultivation level is Pei Xuanzhen, who is in the Half-Step Void Refining Realm.

The ones with the highest cultivation level are the cave masters like the sect leader.

But even so, these seven people were also pressed hard by the giant monument. As the giant monument emitted purple light and connected to the sky, they felt that the weight of the entire sky was pressed down.

All the cultivation skills in his body have disappeared, and he can only rely on his own physical strength.

Every time I take a step, the ground roars and the mountains and rivers make a loud noise!

But in the ears of the seven people who carried the monument, the sound turned into the sound of Taoism. The Tao Te Ching continued to flow, refining their long-dusted souls.

Finally, the seven people were carrying the huge monument to the outer city and reached the Golden Lotus Avenue.

After the seven people stepped forward, there were golden lotuses supporting their feet, which immediately greatly reduced the weight of the giant monument and made them feel a lot more relaxed.

Everyone in the outer city knew nothing about the identities of these seven people.

It wasn't until they entered the inner city that the elders of the clan recognized the giant monument beneath. The person who was leading the way to carry the monument turned out to be the clan leader of the Canglan Sect!

"The sect leader is actually carrying the monument himself!"

For a moment, I was shocked on the spot again, and then I recalled the previous City Lord Pei. After he came back, his attitude changed drastically.

"No wonder. No wonder!"

In addition to his own Dongxuan Realm cultivation, the sect leader also represents the entire Canglan Sect.

The fact that he personally carried the monument was enough to illustrate the significance of this huge monument to the Canglan Sect.

At this time, everything and any affairs should be based on this monument as the first and most important thing. There should be no obstruction or hesitation!

And just when the giant monument arrived in the inner city.

The construction of the central square was finally completed. Gao Ce, who had entered a mysterious state, suddenly felt a shock when he was laying the last floor tile.

The look in his eyes returned to normal, and things that had been forgotten before came to mind one after another.

"I was just now."

Just when he was still a little confused, the disciple next to him suddenly pulled him.

As soon as he turned around, he saw that the giant monument was about to arrive, and the disciples who had opened the way were already standing on both sides of the square.

Gao Ce also quickly stood with the disciple at the edge of the square, next to City Lord Pei.

The giant monument entered the square and moved towards the center. There was already a monument pedestal in the center.

As the seven people exerted their strength together, the huge monument fell on the pedestal with a bang, shaking the whole city, and even the heaven and earth shook for a moment.

At this time, the evil purple and gold lights on the giant monument suddenly exploded, along with the dense purple air in the sky, turning into light rain and falling down.

As all the pressure on his body disappeared, even the sect leader himself felt that his body became lighter, as if with the fall of the giant monument, something heavy that had been pressing on him for a long time also followed the giant monument. fall.

Suddenly, the cultivation barrier that had blocked him for a long time became loose, and then suddenly collapsed. The master's cultivation level suddenly increased, and he took another big step towards the peak of Dongxuan Realm!

Just when the sect leader was overjoyed, he suddenly looked up with a feeling and saw a golden light in the sky heading straight for him.

It submerged into his body in an instant.

"Is this the golden light of merit that that boy said?"

As soon as the golden light entered his body, he naturally developed an understanding of the golden light of merit.

It can directly improve your cultivation, extend your life, refine weapons, heal injuries, deduce, and...

This meritorious golden light is almost omnipotent. Of course, the effect of its use is determined by the quantity of meritorious golden light.

In addition to the sect leader, everyone involved in the affairs related to the Dao Monument will have more or less golden light entering their bodies, depending on the extent of their efforts.

Everyone's faces also showed uncontrollable joy at the same time.

Li Zhi deliberately gave up part of the merits of the Taoist monument.

The person who carries the monument has the most merit. Among the seven people, the sect leader has the most merit.

After that, there were several people who built the square, and they gained the most merits with their high strategies.

Once again, it is the disciple of Kai Dao, with Lan Ze having the most merit.

As for those who didn't get a share of the pie, they still got a lot of benefits from the fragrant nectar in the city and the light rain in the sky.

After the giant monument was settled, the sect leader led several people to retreat slowly. The great elder waved to the disciples standing on both sides of the square with ritual instruments.

All the disciples stepped forward one after another and respectfully placed their weapons in front of the monument.

"Disciples of Canglan Sect and all Taoist friends in Canglan City, come with me to pay homage to the Taoist monument!"

The sect master's voice sounded slowly, not loudly, but clearly heard by everyone in the room.

At this time, at the top of Qingjing Mountain, the inner mountain of Canglan Sect, Li Zhi stood on the top of the mountain, looking towards the direction of Canglan City.

The moment the giant monument landed, he found that the connection between himself and the monument had deepened.

As his thoughts moved, his eyes seemed to appear on the Taoist monument, and he saw the sect master leading everyone to bow to the Taoist monument.

"This feeling is really amazing!"

Li Zhi smiled, not sure whether he was talking about switching to the perspective of the Taoist monument, or whether he was talking about seeing the sect leader paying homage to him.

Canglan Sect has its own set of rituals for large-scale sacrifices. The sect leader directly used the ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven on the Taoist monument.

With the system of nine, three bows, three advances, and three chants!

Three bows means that the sect leader leads everyone to bow three times and then goes in to offer incense to everyone according to their status in the sect and bow three times at the same time.

Three recitations. In the past, everyone would sit cross-legged and recite the Canglan Prostrations of Great Bliss for three consecutive days.

But this time, of course, we have to recite the Tao Te Ching on the Taoist monument.

After the sect leader bows three times, there will be elders who specialize in presiding over the ceremony to sing and preside over the ceremony.

This person is the oldest clan elder in the Canglan Sect. He is even older than the sect leader and has very little longevity left. He was no longer in charge of the Canglan Sect's past grand ceremonies and was replaced by the next one. Senior presided over.

He was extremely old, with wrinkles all over his body, and his eyelids had to be raised with great effort, and they were as old as rotten wood.

But today he was also carried out, wearing a large red robe used for memorial ceremonies, standing tremblingly next to the Taoist monument, singing rites in an aging voice, and allowing everyone to offer incense.

But his singing voice, which was weak at the beginning, gradually became louder, and finally even sounded like a yellow bell, resounding through the sky.

The originally rickety body gradually straightened up, and the wrinkles on his face became much lighter.

"This, ancestor, does this extend your life?"

Some junior disciples who had not taken their turn to offer incense stood behind. Seeing that their ancestors had changed so much, they couldn't help but whisper to the people around them.

Although he was telling rumors, as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw the eyes of his ancestors, who were looking at the elders who were lighting incense, suddenly looking at him.

A stern look gave him a hard look.

Immediately, the junior was so frightened that he didn't even dare to spread rumors.

But the shock in my heart was even worse.

"Has the ancestor's cultivation level also returned to Dongxuan? This...!"

Li Zhi watched the Canglan Sect's ceremony for a while, then withdrew his gaze.

He noticed that as the Canglan Sect led the whole city to worship the Taoist monument, there were also traces of merit flowing from the Taoist monument into his body.

A way to continuously obtain merit is of greater value than obtaining a large amount of merit at once.

After all, no matter how much merit you have, it will eventually run out.

Li Zhi returned to his cave, sat cross-legged, and released the Taixu Cauldron with a wave of his hand.

The Taixu Cauldron, which was originally covered in white air, now became gleaming with golden light because of the large amount of meritorious golden light contained in it.

"This cauldron should be something that has not yet been refined, and is a semi-immortal weapon. However, even so, its immortal foundation has been laid. As long as it continues to be refined, it will eventually shed its mortal body and turn into an immortal cauldron. And because I have cultivated the Xuanding World-Suppressing Sutra, my body is the same as the Taixu Cauldron. If I can refine the Taixu Cauldron into an immortal weapon, then I will also have the body of an immortal!

Killing two birds with one stone can maximize the use value of moral golden light! "

After thinking about this clearly, Li Zhi decided to use the golden light of merit he had obtained to refine the Taixu Cauldron!

How to use the golden light of merit depends entirely on Li Zhi's will. As soon as his thoughts move, the golden light in the cauldron begins to rise outwards and slowly flows on the surface of the Taixu Cauldron.

At the same time, the Dao marks on the surface of the Taixu Cauldron that had been carved by Li Zhi during the thunderstorm seemed to be attracted, and moved in sync with it, flowing above it.

As the Taixu Cauldron was being refined, Li Zhi's body suddenly felt warm, without any burning sensation. It was like warm water flowing on the skin, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and at the same time he circulated the Changsheng Qi, letting the Changsheng Qi pour into the heat flow, allowing them to blend, still very calm, without any abnormality.

"Sure enough!"

Li Zhi had tried to use Changsheng Qi to refine the Taixu Cauldron before, but it had no effect. Now he used the Xuanding World-Suppressing Scripture to refine the Taixu Cauldron with the golden light of merit. When the Taixu Cauldron fed back to the physical body, Then use Changsheng Qi to fuse with the feedback heat flow to strengthen the physical body, and then feed back to Taixu Cauldron.

"Perhaps only the almost omnipotent and mysterious power of the golden light of merit can achieve this step!"

The integrated heat flowed through his body, like a warm spring breeze, like a gentle massage, making him feel very comfortable.

There was no severe pain like that experienced during body training.

The longevity energy and the golden light of merit seemed to form a cycle between Li Zhi and the Taixu Cauldron, and they enhanced each other.

Let Li Zhi's physical strength increase crazily.

Half a day later, after he was sure that his approach had no consequences or hidden dangers, he gradually let go of his hands and feet, and at the same time increased the amount of Immortal Qi and Merit Golden Light.

Two days later, the Dao marks on the Taixu Cauldron turned purple. He sat quietly on the futon, his body like a statue, with wisps of white air lingering, with a little golden light in it, and his body surface was hazy.

On the fourth day, there was obviously no burning flame, but the Taixu Cauldron had completely turned into a ball of golden light, with purple Dao marks on it swimming like a dragon on the surface of the golden light.

"This is the moment!" Li Zhi suddenly opened his eyes, and a small cauldron appeared in his soul, with three legs and two ears, simple and natural.

He wants to reshape and refine the Taixu Cauldron. In this case, the Taixu Cauldron can be completely owned by him, and no matter who's secret hands and feet are hidden in it, it can be refined out of it.

Let the Taixu Cauldron be completely owned by you!

Li Zhi is now frightened by these things of unknown origin. Although this Taixu Cauldron has never had any abnormal movements since he obtained it, and it is still a semi-immortal weapon, who can say for sure, what is inside? What if you don’t have limbs?

After all, Li Zhi still had to think deeply about whether the owner of the blabbering words could just follow the Taixu Cauldron to find him.

Although the possibility is very small, as long as it exists, Li Zhi cannot ignore it!

He wanted to use the small cauldron visualized in his soul to refine the golden light that the Taixu Cauldron transformed into. During this period, there should be no mistakes or flaws until it was formed.

The golden light of merit surged. He tempered it with his heart and forged it with God. His spirit was highly concentrated, like a fully drawn bow.

The golden light of merit burns it like a golden flame, making it everlasting and hazy, containing the golden light, allowing it to continuously deform and evolve into the shape of a small tripod.

One day, two days...seven days later, a sonorous sound was made, as if iron was really being struck, and it spread far away.

On the fifth day, Li Zhi had already forged the prototype of the tripod body, but for some unknown reason, the tripod body stopped evolving further, as if it was blocked by some force.

And Li Zhi also realized from then on that there was indeed something wrong with the Taixu Cauldron.

He did not hesitate to consume a large amount of golden light of merit and continuously calcined it.

Finally, on the seventh day, there was a loud bang in the small cauldron that was still in its infancy.

Li Zhi mobilized the remaining golden light of merit to reach his eyes, and his pupils turned into golden light, and he saw the threads of cause and effect being burned out, and what was connected under the lines of cause and effect was actually a seed of cause and effect.

After the seed came out, Li Zhi saw a thin line appearing out of thin air, connecting from behind the seed to the boundless void. Then the whole thing shook and dissipated.

After the seed of karma was forced out by the golden light of merit, Li Zhi's refining progress finally resumed.

On the ninth day, the golden light of merit gradually faded, and then disappeared in a flash, completely consumed.

At this moment, the Taixu Cauldron is still a cauldron, but its appearance has changed drastically, becoming smaller, simpler, and more rounded.

The Dao marks printed on it have all turned purple, and these Dao marks seem to have grown slightly compared to before. One of them was directly formed and turned into a Dao Seal!

After these nine days of refining the weapon, Li Zhi's physical strength has been raised to an unknown level.

He clenched his fist and felt the surging power in his body, as if he could shatter a towering giant mountain with just one punch using his physical body!

With a wave of his hand, the small tripod grew larger and smaller at will, then shrunk and flew into his hand.

He looked at the cauldron in his hand with a deep look, "Since the cause and effect have been eliminated, the name must also be changed. From now on, it will be called the Cauldron of Merit and Eternal Life!"

After saying that, Li Zhi walked towards the outside of the cave, thinking that in these nine days, the sect's worship ceremony for the Taoist monument should have ended!
