Chapter 202: Promoted to the eighth level of Lian Gang and transferred to Dongdao (please subscribe!)
A sword can last a hundred years, and a sword can last a lifetime.
This is the craziest, cruelest and most desperate sword strike that Lu Cheng has made since he started practicing. It is full of joy. The moment it is swung, his whole body is filled with vitality and joy:
With The sword in my hand and the energy in my chest can cut through all disasters and cut through all obstacles, proving my eternal life and great freedom.
At that moment, the sword's heart was as one.
However, the principle of magic power, no matter what, it will always come out nine times and return thirteen times.
After the slashing, the Qi pulses suddenly dispersed, and the death intention all over the body counterattacked. It was like countless ants were biting and burrowing in the meridians and bones of the whole body, and it was like dying.
If the two saints of the East Island did not retreat, Lu Cheng could even strike out with two more swords. He was even certain to kill Shang Xiwen.
Unfortunately, Deng Dongyuan seemed to see something and waved his sleeves and led others to retreat.
As soon as they retreated, Lu Cheng's spirit, which had reached its peak, began to weaken uncontrollably.
Normal monks, like Lu Cheng, who are in the realm of martial arts, suddenly have magical power that is close to that of Jindan Zhenren in the late stage. What he shows is by no means killing all directions and sweeping away invincibly.
But the Dantian meridians cannot be endured by the physical body at all, and the true breath escapes, and finally the body explodes and dies.
Lu Cheng is able to control and endure because of his natal magical power:
The Sea of Qi, which expands the tough meridians.
The Great Five Elements Earth Extreme True Fire forges the Qi front and strengthens control.
The natal blood and fire are to strengthen the foundation, guard the life, and protect the physical body.
In addition, the true breath of the Blood God itself is magical and is not restricted by the monks’ meridians at all. Instead, it runs with the blood. Of course, the meridians of the human body can also run, but in fact, as long as there is blood, the flesh, flesh, limbs and bones of the human body can It can travel freely anywhere.
Finally, the addition of Lu Cheng's self-created auxiliary technique, Pulse-Breaking Sword Qi, was able to prevent him from exploding due to the sudden increase in mana, and he could even control it to the extreme.
Of course, even so, it is a boat on a raging sea, and it is extremely dangerous, and it is by no means an easy task.
After the two saints of Dongdao left, Lu Cheng no longer held on, and kept his mind inward, and began to make every effort to warm and nourish the meridians in his body. From the outside, he seemed to have lost all strength and passed out directly. .
This is normal in the eyes of Third Master Uncle Mie Hongzi, Grandma Jinhua, and even others. The opponent is one of the two saints, Shang Xiwen Zhenren. If the story of this battle spreads, Lu Cheng will immediately become famous all over the world. , becoming the undisputed first person below the Grand Master.
No matter what method he used, he really blocked Shang Zhenren's five-move promise head-on.
Grooming the qi and warming the meridians, during these few days, Lu Cheng felt that he was being taken care of extremely carefully, and honey water was fed into his mouth from time to time.
Of course, it is the fourth-level jade honey jelly, because except for Lu Cheng, no one else has the fifth-level jade jelly.
Mie Hongzi and Grandma Jinhua also took action respectively, using their own magic power to remove part of the magic energy that was wandering around in Lu Cheng's body.
This also greatly reduced the pressure on Lu Cheng. After sorting out the inside and outside and replenishing it in time, a little of the hundred-year life span that was wielded by the sword was finally replenished.
At the same time, during these days, Lu Cheng could feel a pair of cold little hands, rubbing and tapping on his body every day. This was a massage technique that relieved the pressure of a large amount of mana on the monk's body. , although it didn’t show up once or twice, but the little things added up, and in the end it really had a big effect.
Through various attempts, Lu Cheng's century-old life span was finally restored to more than ten years. This was the result of his own self-measurement.
A few days later, Lu Chengxing came to his senses as he let his mind wander.
Actually, he has never really fallen into a coma. The power of his natal blood fire is far beyond what others can see. Before it burns out, he will not stop to protect his life and body.
With your mind relaxed, you open your eyes and see a soft candlelight.
Having not opened his eyes for several days, his vision gradually became clearer as time went by. However, Lu Cheng happened to see Xiao Yuhong standing beside the bed, looking at him with a gentle expression and slightly panicked eyes.
"Senior Sister Xiao."
"You're awake. Yuxue's room is next door. After I visit her on weekdays, I will come over to see you. You don't have to mind. I The physical bodies of monks of this generation are clean and free of filth. Compared with what Junior Brother Lu has done, what I have done is "It's nothing."
At this time, Lu Cheng had already discovered that his body was clean. It had obviously been scrubbed. Except for his inner clothes, his feet and thighs felt cool and smooth. For women in this era, this step is a bit too much.
"Senior Sister, you can use cleaning spells, why bother"
"I have also learned some massage techniques to serve my parents as a filial piety. Now that I am grateful to you for sacrificing your life to save me, Junior Brother, it is also the right thing for me to do these."
"..."
Lu Cheng smiled when he heard this. Doing these things was in line with Xiao Yuhong's temperament. She had always been aloof and unwilling to owe any favors. She massaged a man's whole body for several days, which showed that she was really sincere. gratitude.
“How is Yuxue’s condition?”
"Yu Xue is different from junior brother. Her soul was injured, and ordinary medicinal stones are useless. She needs the help of Dongyang Orthodox Sect's soul-keeping pill. She can barely survive here. All I can do is talk to Yu Xue every day. Junior brother seems He also has a very close relationship with Yuxue. After recovering from his internal injury, he might as well take the time to visit Yuxue. There, chatting with her, she likes the excitement the most."
When she said this, Xiao Yuhong bit her lip slightly, obviously hating the ghost who hurt her sister, but that kind of existence could not be said to be true. She, even if her parents are here, is not that easy to deal with.
The two chatted for a few more words, and then Xiao Yuhong stopped disturbing Lu Cheng's exercise in healing and left the room.
Looking at the clothes he had changed, Lu Cheng knew that his favor with this senior sister had greatly improved.
In this era, some women with traditional temperaments have thoughts of repaying kindness. If you receive a great favor from someone, you will intend to repay it.
It was completely different from Lu Cheng's time.
The first step is healing, and the next step is regulating Qi.
While sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, sorting out his energy, Lu Cheng discovered that his level of mana had inexplicably advanced to another level.
Promoted to the eighth level of refining the Gang, and then carefully inspected it. It turned out that during the previous years of cultivation, the Great Sun God Gang was in the blood and body. This time, all of it was squeezed out. Now his own mana is mana, and his body is. The physical bodies are changing each other but there is almost no penetration into each other, as if they are in a state as pure as glass.
Spiritual consciousness, magic power, and physical body are integrated with each other. This is a very important step in Taoist practice.
But this process should be completed subjectively by monks. Before choosing to practice in this way, it is best to distinguish as clearly as possible, so that the foundation of cultivation will be more solid.
“It’s just that a sword that lasts for more than ninety years may not be worth it in exchange for such a thickened foundation.
If I can’t cultivate the Taoist way of changing life and death, I The lifespan consumed now will still be the same even if it is promoted to the realm of Jindan or Nascent Soul in the future. "It can't be repaired."
The innate monks at the lowest level of Tongxuan Realm are short of cultivation methods, lack of cultivation resources, and even lack of Lingshan spiritual energy. In such a state, one would not be able to cast even a single spell in a lifetime of practicing Taoism.
It’s just about strengthening your body and admiring the Taoism.
Then there are the Qi-training monks. For the vast majority of Qi-training monks, because they are not very good at practicing techniques and lack training resources, they want to reach the peak of their realm before their vitality fades at the age of sixty. It is quite difficult. If you have less qualifications and do not have certain opportunities, you may not be able to practice even at the end of your life.
Foundation-building monks live for more than two hundred years, but they are similar.
However, if you are a disciple of a famous sect and a true successor of the master, as long as you do not go astray in your cultivation and work diligently, you can save a lot of lifespan and advance to the next level because of the sufficient resources of magic techniques and cultivation.
When you have reached the two steps of condensing evil and refining Gang, even if you are a descendant of a famous sect, you will start to lack cultivation resources. Fortunately, the barriers to these two steps are mainly the two steps of condensing Earthly Evil and refining Tiangang. The most important ones are This world provides cultivation resources.
If you practice properly, you can live for more than four hundred years.
Lu Cheng is in this realm. The biggest problem with his cultivation of blood and fire is this. He is already over a hundred years old. He used a sword to cut off his hundred-year life span, leaving only two hundred years of life left. If he is promoted in this state Golden elixir realm.
He is just a short-lived Jindan Daoist with a life span of seven hundred years. After cultivating to the Jindan Daoist realm, useful cultivation resources will be even more scarce. No successor of a famous sect can make up for this shortage.
Besides, if you are not in the realm of refining Gang, if you understand the Taoist way of changing life and death, I am afraid that it will be useless if you advance to Jindan and Nascent Soul in the future. This part of the lost vitality has been cast into the golden elixir and has become a part of the monk himself.
On this day, the Taoist was meditating in his room, thinking about his own practice.
Suddenly, Lu Cheng faintly heard someone calling him.
"...Lucheng...Lucheng...come out...come out"
Lu Cheng's first reaction was to look at the Jiuli Ding in his body, but no, this divine thought did not come from it. of.
Lu Cheng stood up, looked around, then followed the sound and walked out of the room quickly.
Although I am aware of the danger, that sound seems to be very important. It makes people inexplicably feel that it is very important to me and I must pursue it.
“…Lucheng…Lucheng…”
Quickly walking out of the bamboo forest, Lu Chengyu's sword light soon came to a landscape a few miles away. He saw an old man in black robes with a simple and majestic appearance, standing under a stone tablet, casting the Thousand Miles Demon. Sound method.
Sensing that Lu City was approaching, the old man stopped performing the spell and looked up at the stone tablet: "Unless hell is empty, I swear I will never become a Buddha!"
The words on the stone tablet The golden words are blessed by great wishes and thoughts, which are slightly domineering, but also have a magical meaning.
"'Unless hell is empty, I swear I will never become a Buddha!' Although this vow is grand, it does not capture the true meaning of Zen. If hell is empty, the six paths of reincarnation will be useless. Wouldn't it destroy Buddhism itself? The foundation of Nirvana and Nirvana, although the hell is filthy and extinguishes vitality, it is the best nourishment for the Buddhist Golden Lotus, which breeds clean vitality in the filth and annihilation. ”
Deng Dongyuan slowly turned around and looked at Lu Cheng.
This old man was obviously not having a good time during this period, and there were even a few strands of white hair growing out of his originally grayish-yellow temples.
However, his majestic spirit gave people a better feeling than before.
"The real person used the magic sound of thousands of miles to invite me here, but he wants to kill me?"
Lu Cheng came in search of the sound and saw Deng Dongyuan waiting here, but he was not panicked. In fact , he already made this judgment halfway. Just out of some considerations, I still came.
"If I want to kill you, the people here are all the East Island monks here. I never care about the rules when I kill people.
Killing is killing, you can Just kill him, there’s nothing to worry about.”
"Senior, I have a good insight."
"You don't need to flatter me. I have heard the calluses in my ears after hundreds of years of flattering me. They might as well scold me." Instead, let me hear something new.”
"Senior, will you reward the other party?"
"I will plant him in an elixir, use the monk's essence, flesh and blood to cultivate the elixir, and suffer the pain of drawing blood and refining the marrow every day. Say less. Let him live for hundreds of years."
This old man is really difficult to maintain, Lu Cheng came to this conclusion in a few words.
“But you are different!”
“Senior, do you want me to scold you?”
"What I hate most in my life is mediocrity. With your talent, let alone scolding me a few words, even if you spit on my face, I will not lose my temper with you. The biggest regret in my life is that I can't accept one like you Disciple!
We monks don’t like to go around and around, knowing that behind you are Huang Longzi from Guizang Mountain and Chi Shenzi from Quelong Peak. However, it is better to be the leader of your own family than to be a slave to others. Come and enjoy. Come to me. After this incident, I will practice Yuanying in seclusion. Regardless of whether I succeed or not, I will let you and Xi Wen take charge of Dongji Island. How about I become the Supreme Elder? There won’t be one or two things in a few decades, and I can teach you and Xi Wen the secret to cultivating the Nascent Soul.”
When he heard this, Lu Cheng was stunned. Before he came, He never expected that Deng Dongyuan would invite him to defect to Dongji Island.
"You were originally a disciple of the Red God Son of the Fire Cloud Mansion, but later you switched to the sect of Huang Longzi of Cangshan. In that case, why don't you serve as the leader of the three families? Have you practiced Taiyi Tian's Yin-Yang Mastery? That's a technique I created to compete with Qingxuan Master, but is it still useful?
If I succeed in cultivating the Nascent Soul, you will be the top disciple in the sect. "
"So what does senior need me to do? You can't give me this great benefit in vain. ”
Lu Cheng’s intention to come here is to find a way out of the secret realm of Tianfo.
On one side are the twin saints of the East Island, and on the other side are the thousand-year-old ghosts. As time goes by, they will inevitably < br>
However, Grandma Jinhua of Biyun Cave Mansion did not have enough background. Although she also practiced some Buddhist teachings, she obviously did not understand the essence of it. The third master uncle came to destroy Hongzi in a hurry and was unprepared.
< br>
Only on the Dongji Island side, with Old Demon Deng Dongyuan’s level, these must have been understood. It is also a variable for him that he and others stop here. If the price is right, he may be able to exchange for the method of leaving the secret realm of Tianfo.
But Lu Cheng didn't expect that Deng Lao Mo used Qianli Magic Sound to lure him out, and he actually wanted to accept him as his apprentice.
"You have cultivated blood nerves and have reached the realm of death. This is the deepest realm in the magic scripture. I think you can greatly improve your skill at the cost of losing your Yangshou, but you can only hit three times. With such power, after three blows, one's life span will be exhausted and one will die... ...With your swordsmanship, at least among these three swords, you can be equivalent to a real Jin Dan. It's a pity that the power of the sword was wasted on Xi Wen.
I have a secret medicine. , and then use its own magic power to help you consolidate your foundation and cultivate your strength, allowing you to use There is still life left after you use the three swords. After you leave the secret realm of Tianfo, you will have the treasure house of the East Island at your disposal. You will spend a lot of money to hire spiritual doctors and alchemists, supplemented by life-extending elixirs. It will not be a problem for you to restore your two hundred years of life. In the future Your promotion to the golden elixir realm will only result in a loss of two hundred It’s just longevity and vitality. In exchange for my position as the master of Dongji Island, or even a Nascent Soul Lord as my master, this deal is not a loss.”
“Not only is it not a loss, it is simply a huge profit. Special profit." After hearing this, Lu Cheng thought for a moment and nodded.
"Oh, so you agreed?" Deng Dongyuan looked at Xiang Lu Cheng, as if to observe whether he was sincere.
“You can consider it, but I request that my Third Master Uncle and Grandma Jinhua of Biyun Cave Palace be sent away from the secret realm of Tianfo first. These people have insufficient magic power. If they are deceived and eaten by ghosts, it will be a huge disaster. Trouble. What's more, I have an explanation in front of Master Huang Longzi. After that, all the monks in the world couldn't say anything more.
Although the master has great magic power, Huang Longzi, Chi Shenzi, and Mie Hongzi are not easy to deal with. "
< br>When he said the last sentence, Lu Cheng had even begun to think about Deng Dongyuan.
"Uh, hahahahahaha. Okay, okay, you are really thoughtful. The longer time passes, the more likely those wastes will become the blood food of ghosts and ghosts, which will increase their magic power.
Okay, then I will give you a method to send them all out, and then you can serve me wholeheartedly. ”
Deng Dongyuan’s mind was running like lightning, and he could understand all Lu Cheng’s thoughts in an instant.
But his heart for seeking the truth was extremely firm, and he was conceited as long as he refined the heavenly ghosts to form a Nascent Soul. , I won’t worry about this disciple refusing to give in in the future.
In this case, letting those people go is nothing.
There is a concept to distinguish here:
Deng Dongyuan captured Mie Hongzi and others, and fed these people with blood. Through rituals, blood was fed to the heavenly ghosts. This could dispel the hostility and strengthen Deng Dongyuan's subjugation of the heavenly ghosts.
But he missed a hit, and Mie Hongzi was extremely wary of him. He would rather have the jade broken than the whole thing. At this time, it was extremely difficult for Deng Dongyuan to succeed.
The longer the delay, the greater the chance that the ghost will succeed, because the secrets of ghost magic are more difficult to predict. The blood food obtained by the Heavenly Ghost himself will only increase its mana and increase the difficulty of control.
In addition, if there is Lu Cheng, the three Jindan real people can do a lot of things. In this case, leaving Mie Hongzi and the others behind might make things worse.
So after careful consideration, Deng Dongyuan decided to let Hongzi and the others escape from the secret realm of Tianfo.
"This world-breaking bead was refined by the skilled craftsmen sent by Xiwen. When it was presented to me, I originally wanted to destroy it directly. How can one be so cautious in cultivating the Dao.
But considering that refining a treasure is not easy, After all, he stayed, and now, this is the first gift for you and my master and disciple.
However, leaving the secret world of Tianfo does not mean returning to the main world. Now, let your third uncle calculate the space superposition by himself, lest they don't believe the position I gave him and cause a lot of trouble. In addition, if they make a mistake and fall into the endless void, don't say it's me, Deng. "
With a wave of his sleeve, a black bead flew from Deng Dongyuan to Lu Cheng, and was caught by Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng is not worried that these are sky thunder beads or earth fire beads. On the one hand, the sky thunder or earth fire can restrain ghosts. Deng Dongyuan cannot waste it like this at this time.
On the other hand, the current self is extremely useful to this old demon. Since he can be used, he will naturally act as kindly as possible.
"Thank you, senior, and say goodbye."
"Wait a minute."
Lucheng was about to return when he was stopped by Deng Dongyuan.
"Cheng'er, you agreed to the matter and took the things. Just sign this Styx Dharma Deed. After signing it, Junior Brother Shang and I will never confront each other again during this trip. You take action, but you must also assist me with all your strength, otherwise it will be a disaster.”
"Master, you can't trust me?"
"Oh, Cheng'er, we are all disciples of the Shen Sect's Demon Sect. Aren't I also afraid that you will never come back and lose your beloved disciple?"
< br>Looking at the legal deed that Deng Dongyuan threw over, and the smiling but cold expression of the other party, Lu Cheng knew that if he didn't sign it at this time, the old devil in front of him would take action directly.
Lu Cheng really didn't want to spend another hundred years of life to escape, not to mention that facing Deng Dongyuan, one hundred years of life may not be enough.
The legal deed that Deng Dongyuan took out was of course a famous product.
The color of this Styx Dharma Deed is dark and dark blue, and it is covered with all kinds of mysterious and mysterious text symbols, with only two empty spaces.
“I, Deng Dongyuan, swear that as long as Lu Cheng abides by the contract within the Tianfo Secret Realm, I will never attack Lu Cheng first.”
“Master, please add Zhenren Shang and others. Several masters. "
"Of course."
"I, Lu Cheng, will do my best to help Deng Dongyuan in the Tianfo Secret Realm."
"At the same time, you can't take action against us."
"Of course."
The Styx Deed does not require written text. After it is opened, it will record what the monk said before signing. Then the monk wrote his name in blood in the blank space to complete the contract.
If there is any violation, disaster will befall you.
It is said that after the Styx Dharma Contract was made, even if the Jindan master forcibly violated it, there was a precedent of falling because of it. This is a great deterrent to the monks, and it is also a great danger.
After returning to the bamboo forest, Lu Cheng took out the Boundary Breaking Pearl and explained the matter to Third Master Uncle Mie Hongzi and Grandma Jinhua. Of course, switching to become a disciple was hidden.
Now that the matter has come to this, Mie Hongzi has no choice but to do anything. Although Grandma Jinhua comforts her, there is unconcealable joy in her eyes. She has finally escaped from this catastrophe.
A few days later, everyone calculated the nodes where the space overlapped, and then Yudun went there. In that valley, Lu Cheng saw Shang Xiwen and a group of Dongji Island monks.
Obviously Deng Dongyuan was still worried. To be sure, he sent Shang Xiwen here. If Lu Cheng dared to take a single step after using the Boundary Breaking Pearl, Shang Xiwen would do it even if he broke his skin. Take action directly.
Shang Xi asked, are you not afraid of demonic calamity?
Of course I will be afraid, but senior brother Deng Dongyuan is obviously more terrifying than the demonic calamity that will appear at some point.
"Junior Brother Lu, my sister-in-law is seriously injured and has to go. I have received this great favor. Please repay Rong Yuhong in the future."
"Junior Brother Lu, be more careful."
Wu Lingyun, Nangong Jing, Niu Meng, and Zhongli Ling all clasped their fists. After all, it was the grace of Chenglu City that escaped this disaster.
Not only is it a life-saving grace, it is also a kindness that helps one escape from a catastrophic situation.
