Chapter 260 Success
There is no wind on the top of the mountain.
Lin Bai held a stone plaque in his left hand, which he got from Wuxiang's old residence.
The right hand holds a piece of broken wood, which has the effect of restoring oneself, healing wounds and nourishing the life. It was obtained from Lu Haike, and later returned to Gu Yao, and is now on loan.
The chain on his wrist trembled slightly, the gourd in front of him swayed slightly, and a small broken boat capsized.
Song Lingming kneeled on his arms, Li Xinghe broke the bridge to watch the stars, Lu Qingyin rode a colorful deer, and Wuxiang disciples knelt down to receive Taoism.
One by one, past events pass through my mind, including sadness and joy, separation and reunion, desperate fights and leisurely strolls.
It's just that old things and old people are like rivers flowing through. Although they are surging with waves, they are difficult to create ripples in the heart.
There is no blockage in my heart, and my thoughts are clear.
After swallowing the elixir that stabilizes the sea of qi and consciousness, the mist in this life billows and the stone plate slowly rotates.
At this moment, the color of the world suddenly changed, and the spiritual energy was restless.
The people who watched the ceremony from all directions saw that the pressure was so heavy that it seemed to encompass all the wastelands. Those who were slightly weak-minded already trembled and fell to the ground.
The calamity cloud looked very far away, but it seemed to be coming closer in the blink of an eye as it floated around.
For a time, the calamity cloud covered the entire Qiaoshan Sect territory.
It was supposed to be afternoon, but it felt like it was a dark night, with no stars or full moon to be seen.
The calamity cloud was completely black, and as it rolled, clouds of various colors appeared, which seemed to contain the majesty of the great avenue from ancient times.
Not a breath of breeze could be heard, and no one could be heard making a sound. In this world, everyone, whether they are people watching the ceremony or birds and beasts, are looking up.
People coming and going in Xinyi Square, as well as the guards at various shops, also went out to take a look, all looking in the direction of Xianqiao.
Thousands of miles away, the overwhelming calamity clouds can also be seen from Mianlong Mountain and Qianhe Sandfield.
"When we first met, I was just a young Qi practitioner. How long ago... Peining is so cunning. I believed her lies and didn't crawl into his bed!" Yao Qianyuan stood at the door of Tianchi Pavilion, looking blankly to the west.
"I remember it was said in the book that the different colors of the calamity clouds represent the strength of the thunder calamity. How come the calamity clouds caused by Lin Zhuanlun are rolling in black and white, with brilliant colors in between?" Gai Yingqiu grabbed Yang Shu's arm.
Yang Shu was stunned, but didn't say a word.
"Sister-in-law," Yang Ai said, "There is no conclusion as to the strength of color representation. It is roughly related to the person's destiny and the direction of the road he chooses. Of course, with so many colors, it must be even more powerful."
"The vastness is endless, and there seems to be the true meaning of the great road in the calamity cloud." Gu Qingshui opened her eyes and looked towards the sky.
The fox stood on Miaomiao's head, its tail swaying back and forth, "Stronger than I thought."
"Fairy, how can the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation bring out the true meaning of the Great Dao? What does this mean?" Although Xiuxiu followed the knowledgeable fox, she hadn't seen much of it, so she was a little confused and felt uneasy in her heart.
"The pill calamity is to temper the golden elixir and stabilize the soul. Although it has the effect of rebirth, it is still an ant after all and cannot inherit the true meaning of the great road." A thick voice rang in their ears, and everyone saw an old man in black robe standing with his hands behind his back. . The meaning behind the words is that this is something that can only be encountered in the Nascent Soul Realm.
He has a black beard and black hair, and does not have any aura of monk at all. He looks like an ordinary old man.
His stature is on the short side, lower than Jiang Yu, and almost as tall as Miaomiao, but he seems to be standing tall and towering, making people suddenly look up.
"Senior Brother Head." Gu Qingshui stood up and saluted.
Everyone immediately leaned down, and Miaomiao and Jiang Yu didn't even dare to raise their heads.
"Lao Xiang," the fox lay on Miaomiao's head, "how can you bear to go out?"
"The secret of the sky is covered, the spiritual energy is restless, and the power of the robbery cloud is so powerful, it is natural to come and see who the hero is." Xiang Wu replied.
"It's the one who killed your apprentice. You saw him when you surrounded and killed Lu Haike." said the fox.
Miaomiao and Jiang Yu looked at each other with their heads lowered, neither of them dared to straighten up.
"It's fate." Xiang Wu replied.
The fox took a step forward, but before she could say anything more, Xiuxiu immediately picked her up into her arms, stretched out her hand and clamped the fox's mouth tightly.
The calamity cloud pressed down, and thunder could be faintly seen exploding, as if it was about to crush the bridge and mountain into powder.
Lin Bai's clothes fluttered and his whole body became more harmonious.
Based on the elixir theory, the next step is to condense the golden elixir.
There seems to be a whirlpool in the air sea, and the spiritual power is stirring, as if it wants to absorb everything.
At this moment, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth became more and more restless, coming from all directions and integrating into the vortex of the sea of air.
The sea of qi seemed to have no boundaries, and the spiritual energy poured in like a flood from a broken embankment, but it did not overflow.
As the vortex became more and more fierce, the air sea contained more and more spiritual energy. It was like thunder in the body, and together with the sea of consciousness, the mist surged, and the stone plate rotated faster.
I don’t know how long it took, but the whirlpool in the sea of qi slowly slowed down, and I don’t know how much spiritual power was contained in it. A dazzling pearl emerged from it, and then the pearl absorbed spiritual power on its own.
After a while, the pearl became larger and larger, and gradually became more solid.
The pearl has two colors: black and white, and it rotates constantly, as if dividing yin and yang.
This is a false elixir. If you want to achieve the golden elixir, you need to go through thunder and tribulation to eliminate the waste and retain the essence.
But the most difficult part is this step. One point more and one point less will make a difference. And often the more severe the thunder tribulation is, the more pure the golden elixir becomes. Of course, it may also be that the person who is being robbed has done too many things that are harmful to nature and justice.
"Brother Song, the mist is blurry and the middle road has collapsed. It's my turn to move forward on your behalf!"
Lin Bai clasped his hands tightly, looked up at the sky, and saw a crack in the calamity cloud, and a dazzling dragon emerged from it.
The calamity thunder descended, as if tearing apart a high mountain. There was a rumble, the ground shook and the mountains shook. The top of the mountain could no longer be seen as Gu Jiuzhong's former dojo.
"How can you be so strong?" Lin Bai's hair spread out and he held one hand on the ground, "The calamity cloud caused by the iron metamorphosis is several times more powerful than the calamity cloud caused by the iron metamorphosis. It is even more manic than the calamity cloud caused by Lu Qingyin. Its power is I’m afraid even ordinary golden elixirs can’t be accepted?”
The clothes all over his body were torn, and there were tiny cracks on his skin, with tiny thunder shadows popping up from time to time.
The golden elixir in the qi sea kept spinning, expelling a lot of debris, but it gave rise to restless qi, as if it was about to leave the body. The sea of consciousness stings, and the stone plate rotates faster and faster, driving the mist, which seems to burst.
Take a deep breath, the twelve turns of Hunyuan will show its power, the skin on the body will be repaired, the mind will be calm, the mania and depression will gradually disappear, the Qi sea will be more stable, and the tingling pain in the consciousness sea will be slightly reduced.
Sit firmly, and use the flying knives all over your body to face the second tribulation thunder.
The black tribulation thunder was more violent than the first one. The raging earth fire seemed to be able to burn everything, but it was swallowed up by the tribulation thunder in an instant.
The fake elixir in the sea of qi buzzed, separating a lot of black energy. The stone plate in the sea of consciousness rotated rapidly, and Lin Bai felt a splitting headache.
"Chen Tianren, help me!" The flying knives came out again, but this time they had pure sword intent, hoping to block the third thunderbolt.
The Taoist robe was no longer there, and his whole body was charred black, but he could faintly see thunder and lightning rushing inside and outside his skin. "Senior Lu, help me!" Lin Bai held a broken boat in his left hand and pointed with his right hand.
Suddenly, clouds and mist appeared on the top of the mountain, like waves and a small boat stirring.
However, even though there is a Nascent Soul treasure, it is only slightly relieved. The broken ship fell to the side, cracked with a crack, and there were thunder patterns on it.
The fake elixir in the body rotates slightly slowly, and no impurities are seen coming out, but it is absorbing the remnants of the calamity thunder in the body.
Lin Bai held a piece of wood in his hand, and the injuries on his body quickly receded, leaving only black stains.
The fifth calamity thunder descended, and the broken trees were covered with lightning and thunder, and smoke was rising.
This thing was given by Gu Yao, so if it's not broken, there's no need to pay for it.
Thinking like this, the sixth thunderstorm came.
Lin Bai took a deep breath, held up the black and white gourd with both hands, "Put it away!"
The black and white gourd emitted black and white light, and then formed the shape of Bagua Yin and Yang. The extremely violent calamity thunder descended, and most of its power was absorbed into the gourd.
It's just that the gourd became extremely hot, with traces of lightning surging on the surface. However, the tribulation thunder included in it did not escape, which was truly miraculous.
Lin Bai couldn't stop panting and swallowed a handful of pills.
"The stronger the magical power, the heavier the killing, or the more outstanding the person, the thunder tribulation will be a little stronger, or even doubled. Some tribulation thunders even have some true meaning of the great road..."
He Wenyao's words floated in his ears, and Lin Bai could already see that this thunder disaster was anything but ordinary, and its power was several times greater than what Zhilu Qingyin had experienced.
Now the ninth level of thunder tribulation has passed, but the last three are the most important.
Lin Bai held the gourd in his hand, feeling that the gourd could at most help him once more, but he still had two tribulation thunders to deal with.
Without thinking carefully, since you have the ambition to pursue the road, you should face the difficulties.
The seventh calamity thunder is to temper the body.
Lin Bai didn't use a gourd to pick it up, "I have completed the twelve rounds of Hunyuan, and I have been tempered by the stars. Now I should try the sky thunder again!"
Having said that, Lin Bai still acted defensively.
However, the thunder this time was more powerful than before. The thunder was so powerful that it had never been seen before, and there was a faint intention of destruction.
Lin Bai lay prone on the ground, pieces of blood and flesh falling off his body, revealing his charred internal organs, with many tiny threads of lightning running through them.
The fake elixir in the sea of qi becomes more and more solid. When it rotates, the black and white colors have the image of yin and yang, as if it can encompass all things.
Within the sea of consciousness, the stone plate rotates, as if it is moving the long river of time. The surrounding fog moves with the stone plate, as if the mountains and rivers are turning upside down.
Without adjusting the breath, the eighth calamity thunder will come again.
This tribulation thunder is the most likely to lead people to be possessed by asking about their intentions.
"The deer's light whisk sweeps away the dust. My heart is like this gourd, untainted by dust!" Lin Bai raised the gourd again.
But having said that, when the calamity thunder came down, only half of the gourd was taken away, and most of it was still suffered by Lin Bai.
An ethereal place with fairy spirit, like a fairy palace. Lin Bai was sitting high, with two female attendants standing on the left and right, and an unknown senior cultivator standing below him.
Even Nascent Soul is not qualified to come here.
"Master Zhuanlun!" Countless people bowed and saluted, showing great respect.
Lin Bai was too lazy to speak, so he changed his place with a flick of his sleeves and removed all the guests.
"Master! People who came to pray said that the fox was too coquettish and should not be guarding the door. They also said that although the fox was tied around the neck, it would show its teeth when seeing people. Should we remove it?" Miaomiao asked.
"Master has punished her not to speak for a hundred thousand years, and now it's enough." Jiang Yu also spoke.
"That's fine, Xiuxiu won't be happy if she is locked up any longer." Lin Bai waved his hand, not caring much.
After the two apprentices obediently retreated, Lin Bai was about to give some advice on Gu Qingshui's practice, when he saw a stone table and three stone benches beside him.
There was a man and a woman sitting there. The man looked ordinary, but he was Li Xinghe, and the woman was unknown.
"I don't dare to call you Tao Master. You have my inheritance, so how dare you call me Tao Master?" The woman frowned.
Lin Bai only felt that there was not even half of the Taoism that penetrated the heavens and the earth, and he was as ordinary as an old man.
"Master Zhuanlun, please sit down." Li Xinghe poured the tea with a smile on his face.
Lin Bai was trembling and didn't dare to move at all.
"Lin Zhuanlun, please sit down." The woman's voice was ethereal, as if she had traveled through endless time and countless mountains and rivers. "Show me what you're capable of."
"You are going to be a widow." The eighth thunder catastrophe was over. Xiu Xiu saw Lin Bai lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. She couldn't help but let go of the hand holding the fox's mouth, and the fox immediately uttered evil words.
"Hey hey hey, you two don't have a master anymore." The fox looked at Miaomiao and Jiang Yu again.
Miaomiao and Jiang Yu both lost their temper and glared at the fox.
The whole mountain was silent, and the calamity clouds condensed the last calamity thunder.
"I learned the method of the wood demon and was taught by Li Xinghe, so why haven't I seen its ability?" Xiang Wu replied.
At this moment, Lin Baiqiang stood up, holding a stone tablet in his hand.
"The Wood Demon and Li Xinghe are just guiding the way. He has inherited the inheritance of Taoist Wuxiang." The fox tilted his head and did not look at Lin Bai. Instead, he stared at Xiang Wuhui.
Xiang Wuhui ignored it.
The ninth level of calamity thunder crashed down, and its power was far greater than before. It almost had the power to destroy the heaven and the earth.
Everyone watching the ceremony was frightened, and those with shallow cultivation immediately fell to the ground.
The calamity thunder was so violent that everyone thought that Lin Zhuanlun must be inactive. Suddenly, Lin Zhuanlun was shrouded in mist, and then the mist rotated, and the sky was filled with faint stars, and there seemed to be a rotating stone disk.
Although the tribulation thunder surged, as if it was about to turn the place into dust, most of its power seemed to have been moved to an unknown place, or perhaps sunk in the long river of time.
The ninth level of thunder tribulation was over, and Lin Bai fell to the ground again.
"There is a successor to Taoist Master Wuxiang." After Xiang Wuhui finished speaking, the person turned into a black shadow and went to the blessed land of Immortal Bridge.
