Chapter 684 The cave opens after three tribulations
After waiting at the entrance of the cave for a while, the tall green-haired man who had just gone in to pass the news came out and said, "I asked you to follow me in."
"Thank you, senior." Hua Qianluo saluted. Patriarch Shi's gatekeeper had a terrifying aura, which seemed to be no less than that of Patriarch Xie whom he met at Tianya Haijiao Tower.
Following the green-haired man into the cave, he soon came to a quiet room, and then Hua Qianluo heard the other person say: "Go in and pay homage to the master."
Hua Qianluo nodded and walked inside cautiously, completely unaware of Qinglang's frightened expression.
In the quiet room, the furnishings are simple and quiet, and a man in plain green Taoist robes sits on the cloud bed.
Hua Qianluo didn't have time to look at the man on the cloud bed, and quickly saluted respectfully: "Disciple Hua Qianluo pays homage to Patriarch Shi."
"No need to be polite." A plain but gentle voice reached her ears, which made Hua Qianluo's anxiety and worries seem to have been calmed down. She couldn't help but raise her head and look at Patriarch Shi.
"Ah?!" At this sight, Hua Qianluo took a breath of cold air, turned pale, and took a few steps back. The appearance of Patriarch Gainshi was too terrifying.
His old man's face was rotten, and his features, eyes, nose, and mouth were all mutilated. This was nothing. For Hua Qianluo, a golden elixir master who had dealt with the Nether Sect and killed several ghost monks, it was even more. I have seen disgusting and hideous sights, such as a rotten face with white maggots crawling around.
She shouldn't have had a big reaction to this, but as soon as she saw Patriarch Shi, she felt that her golden elixir, mind, and thoughts were all rotting and decaying. An extreme fear and fear arose in her heart, and she would never see it again. Hard to restrain.
"You have a phantom magic weapon on your body, which was promoted from the time and space gate of the Small Thousand Worlds, right?"
Before Hua Qianluo could stand still, the gentle voice sounded again, which made her feel frightened. The pores in her body suddenly tightened, and she looked at Patriarch Shi with unusual vigilance. Her biggest secret was actually seen through! If he were still an ordinary person, he would probably be breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Hey, there are poor people too."
Before Hua Qianluo could think of what to say, she heard Patriarch Shi joking and couldn't help but be startled: "What?"
"This kind of magic weapon is similar to the Cave Heaven magic weapon. Each has its own merits, but it is of little use to monks who are above the second decline of heavenly beings. Moreover, the poor Taoist's map of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers must be recorded in the sect's classics." Shi Xuan then smiled and said, "Haha, little girl, your fear of decay should have dissipated a lot, right?"
Hua Qianluo was stunned again. He was a master of the golden elixir, but in front of Patriarch Shi, he felt like he couldn't keep up with his ideas!
When she found that the feeling of decay had indeed dissipated a lot, and the thoughts of extreme fear and fear were much weaker, she suddenly understood that Patriarch Shi pointed out his biggest secret in order to scare herself from another aspect and put her on full alert. This way, you can get rid of the state of heart palpitations and fear.
Only then did she regain her former grace, her smile appeared, and she said jokingly and curiously: "Master Shi, this disciple was almost frightened to death just now. Are you in the third decline of the Heavenly Being?!"
Limited to the realm, Hua Qianluo still had no access to many high-level classics, so he didn't know much about the situation of realms above the Yuan Shen. However, Patriarch Shi's appearance easily reminded people of the word decline and calamity, so he asked.
But as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she was shocked: "Speaking of which, Patriarch Shi only survived the second decline of heaven and man for more than a thousand years!"
"Yes. The corrosive meaning contained in this backlash force is very suppressive for monks below heaven and earth. You can barely restrain it, which is already very good. It is stronger than that guy from Qinglang." Shi Xuan said with a smile, "And This magical weapon of yours can use part of the power of the Small Thousand Worlds, which is comparable to the Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, but it is not easy to survive the catastrophe. "
Compared with the magic weapon of the cave, once it is promoted to a magic weapon, it can mobilize half of the power of the small thousand worlds. If it survives four heavenly tribulations, it can drive all of them, but it cannot change the laws of heaven and earth inside, and its heaven and earth. The tribulation is very difficult, and Shi Xuan has never heard of this type of magic weapon that has survived three tribulations.
When Hua Qianluo saw Shi Xuan's admission, she was shocked at first, but then she thought that Patriarch Shi was an incredible figure who had survived the second decline of heaven and human beings in less than a hundred years. It was not strange to be like this now, so she said calmly and honestly: " Patriarch Shi , The disciple found this magical weapon in the Western Wilderness, and relying on it, the disciple can fight against the Yin God in the soul stage. "
She quietly breathed a sigh of relief. She regarded it as a magic weapon that was unparalleled in the world. In the eyes of Patriarch Shi, it seemed of little use. With him having an explanation, she no longer had to worry about anyone else in the sect.
"The magic weapon is too strong, and sometimes it will delay your tempering. If it is not a life-or-death situation in the future, try not to use it. Especially if it directly blesses the power of Xiaoqian World on your Taoism, it will greatly reduce your control of the Taoism. Make the road ahead difficult and bumpy.”
Shi Xuan said solemnly, "When a tall building rises from the ground, the best time to lay the foundation is to lay the foundation for the soul. If you miss it, it will be very difficult to make up for it, and you may not be able to reincarnate."
Since the Penglai sect has more than doubled in size over the past few thousand years, Shi Xuan has taught more than two hundred top-grade golden elixir masters after becoming heavenly beings, but only three of them have become Yuanshen. However, Shi Xuan has not You will not be depressed by this, and you will still be dedicated to giving guidance to the top-grade golden elixir master. The three difficulties of cultivation are not for nothing. Behind every pass, there are the accumulated corpses of countless losers.
Hua Qianluo nodded thoughtfully: "Disciple, please remember the teachings of our ancestors."
Shi Xuan gave Hua Qianluo careful instructions, and finally asked her about her adventures with great interest, but unexpectedly found an acquaintance: "Mo Jingqiu actually came to the Western Wilderness a few years ago."
…………
In the quiet room where the restriction was opened, Shi Xuan sat cross-legged, expelling the backlash.
But suddenly, the counterattack force that was originally very stable suddenly became turbulent, like a flood that burst the embankment, rolling in, unstoppable.
The chaos hole transformed by Shi Xuan Yuan Shen was rapidly corroded and retreated steadily. The power of transforming everything into chaos was a drop in the bucket, just like lighting a few candles to dry up a basin of water.
In less than two moments, the results of Shi Xuan's forty years of hard work completely disappeared. Hundong Yuanshen became only the size of a palm again, but the backlash force did not end. It seemed to be able to destroy Shi Xuan in the blink of an eye. Xuan Yuan Shen was completely corrupted.
Shi Xuan's heart was like a mirror, and he knew that it was Shui Jie's final counterattack. He relied on his powerful control over himself to shrink the soul of Hundong little by little, instead of collapsing at the first touch.
The size of a hand, the size of a mouth...the size of an eye. Under the difficult delay of Hundong Yuan Shen, the counterattack force coming from the avenue seemed to slow down.
But it was only a little slow, and the corrosive power was still strong and endless. Shi Xuan's Hundong Yuan Shen slowly but unstoppably shrank, to the size of a thumb, the size of a pea...the size of a grain of rice.
It seems that if there are no other changes, it will be difficult for Shi Xuan to persist until the backlash dissipates!
Shi Xuan himself understood this very well, but he didn't panic, just a thought.
A vermilion gourd phantom immediately appeared in Shi Xuan's Yuanshen, which had been suppressed to the size of a needle tip. A stream of fresh air emerged from the mouth of the gourd, and it was directly transformed into the divine light of the Yin-Yang Mixed Cave, and merged into the Yuanshen. !
The Qing Qi Shen Gourd must be refined through its own basic skills before it can be used, otherwise it will not be able to replenish the soul.
With the strong support of the Tribulation-Transcending Secret Treasure, Shi Xuan Yuan Shen suddenly expanded, and a dark and chaotic hole swelled, turning the backlash of the avenue into the breath of chaos one by one, growing from the size of a needle tip to the size of a head.
However, the pure energy of the Qingqi God-Transforming Gourd was limited after all, and soon it felt like it was not enough. The force of the backlash once again overwhelmed the power of everything returning to chaos, bit by bit and firmly corroding and shrinking the soul of Shixuan Hundong. Reduce it to thumb size.
The remaining pure energy continued to emerge, turning into the divine light of the Yin-Yang Mixed Cave, replenishing the soul and allowing Shi Xuan to endure the hardships.
Two moments later, the backlash that had been slowly and weakening finally turned from the initial torrential flood into a stream.
But before Shi Xuan could breathe a sigh of relief, the scarlet gourd phantom suddenly shattered, and the spirit energy was exhausted!
The force of backlash continues to corrode Shi Xuan's Yuanshen, who has no replenishment, the size of a pea...the size of a grain of rice...
Finally, when Shi Xuan's soul became the size of a pinhead, the counterattack force of the strong crossbow slowly changed from a stream to a flat lake, and the corrosion and return to chaos forces were in a stalemate.
Shi Xuan's remaining soul quickly recovered, but the counterattack power of the avenue had no backup and was getting weaker and weaker.
Soon, on the cloud bed, wrapped in the energy of chaos, a black and white light suddenly appeared, and the light shone brightly. A huge chaotic hole was created, and then turned into Shi Xuan's figure, no different from before.
Shi Xuan only felt that the soul that was placed on the avenue was more consistent with the avenue and more closely integrated. His control over the soul had reached a new level, and he could even intuitively feel the laws of heaven and earth in his own small world. !
The third decline of heaven and man, the decline of Yuanshen, is finally over!
"It's still not enough training. The decline of the soul, which should have been the easiest, has instead become the most difficult of the three previous declines. Just like those heavenly kings who have become saints in the flesh, one decline is sad and the other declines." Shi Xuan sighed softly. tone.
…………
A hundred years later, Shi Xuan stood in the air above the Penglai Sect, looking at the seven peaks and twenty-eight mountains leisurely, with all the real people of the Penglai Sect currently in the sect standing beside and behind him.
"Master, are you going to open a cave?" Chu Wan'er, who had survived the third heavenly tribulation and was practicing immortality, asked with some anticipation.
Shi Xuan did not answer, but looked at her with a smile: "Wan'er, although things are going smoothly ahead of you, you must not be careless. The fourth heavenly tribulation is the biggest or even the only test in the Yuan Shen stage. I'm afraid You have to survive the same narrow escape as you did when you became a soul."
"Disciple, please keep this in mind." Chu Wan'er nodded hurriedly.
Jiang Zhenren and Xu Zhenjun, who were already preparing to view the Nine-Level Heavenly Tower from the beginning, were quite excited. Seeing that Shi Xuan was still not taking action and was just giving instructions to his disciples, they couldn't help laughing and cursing at the same time: "Hurry up and open up the cave, don't make me wait for the old guy." anxious."
Shi Xuan nodded with a smile, stretched out his right hand, and made a light stroke.
