Chapter 260 Nascent Soul Ceremony, Cold Yin Ice Fiend Art
“Hahahaha, I didn’t expect fellow Taoists to have such a deep understanding of Taoism.”
The cave is deep and full of spiritual energy. There are some moss mottled, and rays of sunlight cast light and shadow through hidden holes.
Three Taoists were sitting around the ancient wooden coffee table, wearing wide robes and long sleeves, with different expressions:
The old man's beard and hair were all white, and there was an immortal air between his brows; The young Taoist has eyes like lightning and a smile on his face; the young Taoist has a solemn expression and is handsome and sharp.
The fire is reddish, and a pot of aged incense is filled with the faint fragrance of tea.
Ordinary teas should be fresh, which is the latest, tenderest, most refreshing and refreshing. However, some spiritual teas are like mellow wine, becoming more fragrant and lingering aftertaste.
The three of them sometimes toasted and drank, sometimes talked about Dharma, or lowered their heads in deep thought, and from time to time discussed their own experiences.
These three people are naturally Taoist surnamed Huang and Taoist Liu from Huanyun Valley, as well as Lu Cheng, who has just mastered the path of Ghost Infant.
Lucheng had just survived the catastrophe and returned to the cave. The two Taoists Huang and Liu had already arrived hand in hand. They didn't say anything else but just came to visit their fellow Taoists.
There is nothing to talk about other things. Regardless of stealing spiritual energy or unknown identity, Taoist Tie Xiao finally succeeded in refining the ghost baby, reversing life and death and reaching the sky in one step.
There is no point in pursuing the responsibility anymore. What Taoist surnamed Huang is thinking about now is how to draw the other party into the camp of Huanyun Valley with the help of the good karma between the two parties, at least not to let the other party become an enemy.
Losing spiritual energy, losing treasures, and then making an enemy would be losing both your wife and your troops.
The old Taoist uses his fingers as a sword and draws empty strokes in the air, as if he is performing Tai Chi Bagua. Each finger stroke carries the accumulation of years and the mystery of Taoism.
The middle-aged Taoist stroked his beard with his hands and pointed at the void from time to time. He and his senior fellow apprentices practiced the same line of Taoism, so they could add comments from time to time.
The young Taoist Lu Cheng listened intently, sometimes frowning, sometimes his eyes shining, as if he felt he had gained a lot.
Inside the cave, the bamboo shadows are swaying and the wind is whispering. While the three Taoists were sipping tea and discussing Taoism, they seemed to be able to hear the gurgling mountain streams and clear springs, the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
In the dim light, their figures seem to blend into the ancient atmosphere of this cave, rendering this quiet place into a Taoist secret fairyland.
After talking for a long time, seeing that the atmosphere was almost settled, and finding out that Tie Xiao had no sect in this world, Taoist Huang Daozhong finally expressed his opinion:
"Although fellow railway fellows have cultivated to the realm of Yuanying, they should know that the path of heaven is endless and manpower is limited. To put it bluntly, it is a long road to immortality, and cultivating the realm of Nascent Soul is just the beginning. I wonder where you plan to go next?"
"Oh, I plan to travel around the world, stretch my mind, and also explore a few ancient mansions that I have already paid attention to."
Lu Cheng also knew in his heart why the Taoist surnamed Huang asked this, but he still It is necessary to be a little proud and raise your status in order to make more profits.
“With your magic power, you can conquer the world, but without the support of the sect behind you, it will be inconvenient after all.
If you don’t mind the decline of Huanyun Valley, you might as well join us. Sect, if you want to join a famous sect, it is possible. However, if you join the sect as a casual cultivator and become a guest elder, you will not have any influence in the sect, and you still need to serve the sect. Deal with countless difficult things. Once you agree to this condition, you will actually lose your freedom.
It is better to take care of yourself than to give charity to others. If you sincerely join me in Huanyun Valley, you will be with me from now on. My two brothers are on an equal footing. The sect's foundation builders and Zifu monks are also at your disposal, the martial arts books are at your disposal, and the sect's treasure house is also at your disposal."
Lu Cheng heard the following words as soon as Huang Daozhong said it. If he really planned to pack up the entire sect's treasure house and take it away, he would definitely not be able to hide it, and Huang and Liu would definitely fight for it. However, the power to mobilize part of the resources, Thinking about it, I still have it.
"...Okay, if that's the case, then I'll join Huanyun Valley."
After a slight hesitation, Lu Cheng also had a cheerful temper and agreed directly.
If it weren’t for a weak sect like Huan Yun Valley, like Xuan Mo Sect and Haoran Academy, where the master-disciple inheritance within the sect is so strong, a non-local cultivator from outside would usually only be able to be a guest elder for the rest of his life. , after all, cannot master the sect's practical affairs, and is not as good as the sect elders in terms of annual good deeds and treatment, and also has to contribute to the sect to fight on all sides.
Had Huanyun Valley not been in an extremely difficult situation, Lu Cheng would not have been able to enter the core level so easily. After all, it is a large sect with two Nascent Soul Patriarchs. In the eyes of most monks, It has become extremely powerful and even increasingly prosperous.
"Hahahaha, okay, Junior Brother Tie is so happy, I can't let Junior Brother down." After saying this, Zodiac Zhong waved his sleeves, and a jade slip with cold air appeared in the air.
“This is one of the only two sixth-level basic skills inherited by our Huanyun Valley, the Hanyin Ice Demon Technique. Although it is most suitable for the cultivation of ice spirit root female cultivators, it should also be useful for junior disciples. "
If you practice Taoism with a ghost infant, your mana will always be at the level of Nascent Soul and cannot grow at all, and the nature of your mana will inevitably be biased toward coldness. Huang Daozhong means to let Lu Cheng practice this cold Yin Ice Demon first. The trick is to truly master one's magic power.
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Lu Cheng showed a slightly tired look. Huang and Liu Dao immediately resigned and left.
"Senior Brother, why did you hand over the Hanyin Ice Fiend Art directly? This technique is extremely powerful. If it were not only suitable for female cultivators with ice spirit roots, the cultivation process is extremely difficult. The top skill in this world. Aren’t you afraid that he will take this Hanyin Ice Demon Technique and defect to the Xuan Mo Sect?”
"If you are afraid of this and that, then there is no need to do anything. What if he defected to Xuan Mo Sect with his skills? Could it be that without this skill, Xuan Mo Sect would not be able to suppress us? It is better to show others Be sincere and treat others with respect, Let’s take a bet on the character of this railway friend.
In addition, maybe assign Qinghan girl to him, so that no one from Xuanmo Sect and Haoran Academy will worry about it, which may lead to disaster in the long run. ”
< br>A few more days will pass.
Zodiac Zhong came alone to persuade Lu Cheng to hold the Nascent Soul Ceremony.
“Junior Brother Tie, I know that you like to practice quietly and single-mindedly, and don’t like to be disturbed by others, but the sect has an extra Nascent Soul Lord. Celebrating it will not only improve the morale of the sect’s monks, but also Other purposes.
We want to invite some vassal sects and families. In recent years, due to the decline of the sect's power, these people have become alienated and began to secretly collude with outsiders.
With one more Nascent Soul True Lord in the sect, they will feel more at ease. At least the taxes will be paid in full on time and we will not be able to pick on them. ”
Lu Cheng, who had just obtained a sixth-level skill from someone else, couldn’t say no at this moment, so he accepted the matter.
Soon, the third person appeared in Huanyun Valley. The news about the three Nascent Soul Ancestors began to spread in the Cangyun Mountains and affected the surrounding areas.
There are five Nascent Soul Sovereigns in the Xuan Mo Sect, four Nascent Soul Sovereigns in Haoran Academy, and there are now three Nascent Soul Sovereigns in Huan Yun Valley. True Lord, although I didn’t catch up, I at least caught up with some gaps.
At this time, Lu Cheng was busy meditating on the Hanyin Ice Fiend Technique, which was the first sixth-level skill he had acquired in his life. The Blood Nerve and Yuanshi Tianmo Ce were not included. The former was incomplete and the latter was more biased. For preaching instead of teaching, only this Hanyin Ice Demon Technique is a sixth-level method that can truly be practiced all the way to Nascent Soul. It is extremely mysterious and unpredictable in power, and is almost non-existent in the world of Tongxuan.
And just as the Zodiac Clock has judged, the nature of the ghost baby's magic power is indeed more suitable for practicing this type of technique.
Deep in the cave, Taoist Master Lu Cheng sat cross-legged on the Yin-Yang Dharma Platform. The surroundings were so cold that it seemed as if he had entered a frozen world.
The Taoist's eyes were closed tightly, his eyebrows were as long as swords, and his face was filled with calmness and concentration, as if he was savoring the true meaning of the Ice Road in the silence of isolation from the world.
Ordinary monks do not dare to change their major skills easily.
Because monks practice Taoism, there are great hidden dangers if they frequently change their cultivation methods. The magic power produced by each skill passes through different acupoints and meridians. Frequent changes to the main skill will cause the magic power to run chaotically, the magic power will be mixed, and the magic body will be damaged. This will have a negative impact on the future path. There is no benefit at all.
However, Lu Cheng didn't care. He had cultivated the samadhi true fire, his natal magical power, and used the eight-nine-dong true Tao treasure pill to create a Tao foundation that would be indestructible throughout all tribulations.
The confusion of magic power and the damage to the legal body can be eliminated by relying on the true fire of samadhi. Even if you practice all kinds of magic, it will not change its roots.
Taoist Master Lu Cheng sat cross-legged on the altar with his eyes closed tightly. His Taoist robe was flowing with the cold air. The temperature dropped again.
Around the Taoist body, frost is condensing, and the air is filled with a light white mist, as if he is in the arctic ice field.
Following the rhythm of the Taoist's breathing, the true energy of Han Yin Ice Evil Art circulates in the meridians in the body, condensing into sharp icy sword energy.
“Hoo!”
Lu Cheng stood up suddenly, shouted lowly, and opened his mouth to spit out icy sword energy.
These sword energy circled and danced in the stone mansion, seeming to resonate weakly with the surrounding stone walls.
On the stone wall, the ancient runes seemed to become more vivid due to this power, as if they were about to jump out. There was a trace of pain between Lu Cheng's brows, obviously fighting fiercely against the cold air in his body.
In the past two hundred years of his practice, his magic power has been more inclined to the element of fire. Now that he has suddenly turned to the path of yin and cold, it is inevitable to be sad.
A thin layer of frost has condensed on his skin, which is a trace of the release of mana, and is also the inevitable price of practicing such extreme cold skills.
The practice continued, and time seemed to freeze in this cold stone mansion.
As time passed, Lu Cheng seemed to turn into an ice sculpture. Only the cold sword energy that continued to spread and gather revealed that he was still a living person.
At this moment, Lu Cheng seemed to have been isolated from the entire world, leaving only his battle with Han Yin Ice Evil Art and the rising Yin Han magic power.
Jiuli World, one of the countless worlds within it, is a lifeless gray, with the sky hanging low and gray clouds covering the earth like a thick curtain.
The ghost infant tree demon doesn’t know how long it has been here. This world has no concept of time, no rotation of the sun and the moon, and no living creatures.
Only yourself, only yourself.
Fortunately, it finally found the source of some spiritual energy. The rocks were shattered and the cracks were deep. The ghost tree demon finally found the underground magma.
Although the gold and red are flowing and the heat is blazing, it finally brings some life to this dead world. Where there is magma, there is aura.
The roots of the Yin wood stretch down, absorbing the weak spiritual energy while burning, replenishing the main body's mana. "I want to recover my mana as soon as possible. I don't know when that evil man will appear again. I want to survive. The only chance I have is to defeat him when he appears and capture him. By that time, not only can I regain my freedom, but even Even this powerful spiritual treasure will be my treasure!”
Just like the golden-winged roc, the sixth-level ghost infant tree demon gradually discovered this space treasure! some secrets.
For example, it is so powerful that it can only absorb monsters. The world it creates is almost boundless. It is not the kind trapped in a formation, but truly infinite.
How can these big monsters not be greedy?
At this moment, a golden rainbow suddenly appeared in the gray sky, and the next moment an evil man walked out of it.
Using the body of Zhiyang to practice the Cold Yin Ice Demon Technique, mixing water and fire to temper the body. For ordinary monks to practice like this, one or two hundred people will make progress, and the rest will be useless.
Although Lu Cheng could use his own magical power to dissolve them all, he had to endure a lot of hardships in the process.
So after the ninth round of meritorious deeds, I came to the world of Jiuli to soothe my mood.
“Monster, I want you to help me practice!”
"Death to grandma!"
People have the intention of hurting tigers, and tigers are harmful to people's hearts.
Seeing Lu Cheng again, the ghost infant tree demon hissed fiercely, and the roots of the infinite tree vines surged toward the man in the sky like a snake tide.
The reason why it still maintains such fighting spirit is because Lu Cheng’s magic power is indeed weaker than it, although it doesn’t understand why this Taoist can avoid danger every time and escape in time after a long battle. Danger.
But if it doesn’t work ten times, it will happen a hundred times, and if it doesn’t work a hundred times, it will happen a thousand times. As long as I successfully capture him once, I will let him know what the dilemma of life and death is!
However, this is still because it does not understand Jiuli Ding. In fact, as long as Lu Cheng still has a thought, he can leave the Jiuli world at any time.
The operation of this innate treasure itself does not actually require Lu Cheng to provide any spiritual power.
To this day, Lu Cheng already possesses Yuan Ying level mana, but still cannot refine this treasure for even one and a half points, so that Lu Cheng simply does not understand why Jiuli Ding has been following him.
“You have to eat your food one bite at a time, and you have to take your steps one step at a time. I can control you now, and that’s enough.”
As Lu Cheng flicked his sleeves, there was a very powerful figure. The ferocious Iron Man puppet flew out accompanied by a burst of gray spiritual light.
The thick and huge black metal armor of the sixth-level Destroyed Heavenly Lord is extremely sharp every inch. Nine different but equally terrifying ghost faces are carved and refined on it, respectively located on the shoulders, chest, abdomen, and waist. and joints, etc., and these ghost faces are still wandering around.
“What?”
No matter how much the Ghost Infant Dryad could have imagined, in just a few years, the evil man already had the power of the Nascent Soul level.
The nine ghost faces on the body of the God of Destruction condensed on his chest, and suddenly sprayed out a dark gray beam of light like a rainbow.
This is just a derivation and application of Tian Yanzi's Nascent Soul Puppet. The advantage is that it is simple and direct, but the disadvantage is that the use of magic power is extremely rough.
However, the ghost infant tree demon has always been in a state of serious injury. In recent years, it has been trapped by Lu Cheng in a world that is almost a ghost, and its injuries have continued to worsen.
Therefore, the roots of the trees and vines that filled the field of view were suppressed by this simple and crude full-force blow, and were interrupted by all the sweeps.
"Impossible, how could your magic power grow so fast...I understand, this is a Taoist method of human monks, and there is also the smell of my ghost baby in this breath, and Give it to me!”
The ghost-child tree demon’s bloody mouth full of sharp teeth opened and sprayed out pieces of poisonous red mist.
This mist turned into two poisonous dragon-like offensives, scissoring past the Nascent Soul puppet and attacking directly towards Lu Cheng's body.
Five Elements Escape Technique, Fire Jue Escape!
His feet were empty, and from the perspective of the ghost infant tree demon, he saw a fire dragon rushing towards him in an instant, escaping towards him.
“It’s just these few moves that go back and forth. At most, these moves are slightly changed. You want to control me with this method?”
From the fire to the soil, the Taoist is very fast Then it transformed from the fire dragon into a huge khaki ape. It grabbed the torso of the ghost infant tree demon with both arms and stepped on the ground with infinite force. The giant ape roared and threw the ghost infant tree demon towards the charging enemy. Destroy the Heavenly Lord.
Double kill strategy, the second level of the Five Elements Transformation, even monsters such as the Ghost Infant Tree Demon that are relatively unskilled in physical killing cannot compete with the brute force of Lucheng's Sun-Eating Divine Ape Transformation .
The Great Five Elements True Spirit Transformation Method:
The first transformation is the Ancient Flame Dragon Transformation.
The second transformation is the sun-eating ape transformation.
When the five transformations are completed, the five qi will flow and the Nascent Soul will be completed.
Boom.
The God of Destruction collided violently with the ghost infant tree demon. It was not afraid of damage, but the ghost infant tree demon had a sense of pain and was afraid of injury and death.
“Roar!”
The God of Destruction looked up to the sky and screamed. A majestic mana instantly spread out from the center of his body, and a huge jet-black sphere appeared out of thin air. It forms a legal domain with itself as the center, affects the changes in the surrounding laws of heaven and earth, and excludes all non-self existences.
Nascent Soul Divine Power Domain!
After possessing the sixth-level puppet, Lu Cheng finally understood that it turned out that the Yuan Ying's magical power was the resonance of the monk's own spiritual power and the part of the laws of heaven and earth he had cultivated.
For Nascent Soul monks who practice fire-element techniques, if the laws of fire are manifested in the realm of their Nascent Soul's magical powers, they will reject all non-fire laws. This is almost to a certain extent, I can control the heaven and the earth. I am the world. It is no wonder that ordinary alchemy masters cannot compete with it. Jindan master can use the magic power of the golden elixir to forcefully break through the Nascent Soul Divine Power Domain and escape, but There is also a limit. One-on-one, the magic power of Jindan Zhenren is difficult to be deeper, more pure and domineering than that of a Yuanying Zhenjun.
The moment the sixth-order puppet spread out of the Nascent Soul's magical domain, Lu Cheng almost lost control of it.
Behind the heavily armored puppet, Lu Cheng quickly recited a mantra in front of his forehead to strengthen his control over his consciousness.
At this moment, Lu Cheng saw the heavily armored puppet's faintly tilted head and scarlet eyes staring at him.
However, it did not do anything in the end. Instead, it turned back and attacked the ghost infant tree demon with its claws wildly. The iron claws were swung, and broken wood was flying.
A monk is naturally at home in a law space that suits him. The more powerful a monk is, the greater the benefits will be.
After a while, the Nascent Soul's magical power domain dissipated, and the sense of control over the puppet was restored, while the ghost infant tree demon in the trap was almost torn apart.
Lu Cheng glanced at the Nascent Soul puppet, took it back with a wave of his sleeves, and used the Five Elements Sword to protect himself. He came to the seriously injured Ghost Infant Tree Demon and used the heaven-seizing spirit-transforming method to cooperate with Ten Thousand Souls. Banner, extracting a large amount of its Yin and Death Qi.
With the influx of a large amount of extremely pure Yin Ming death energy, the level of the magical weapon of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner is constantly improving, and among the Han Yin Ice Evil Art, there is one called the Cold Evil Shura Knife. The method is quite powerful, and it requires a large amount of Yin Ming death energy to be poured into and cultivated.
Huanyun Valley in the Cangyun Mountains holds the Nascent Soul Ceremony, which is quite a time-consuming and labor-intensive matter.
At least as a host, you must leave enough time for the invited sects and families to prepare gifts and come to visit.
Half a year later, Huanyun Valley in the Cangyun Mountains is extremely lively and prosperous.
The morning sun rises, and the golden light fills the earth. The white stone avenue in the valley is lined with flowers, and the ribbons of blessings are also fluttering in the wind.
A series of long staircases lead directly to the main stage. On the main stage are incense tables and magical instruments. A statue of an immortal ancestor sits on it, wearing a robe, holding a floating dust in his hand, with a solemn expression.
Below, there are immortal cultivators from all over the world, Xuan Mo Sect, Haoran Academy, Dongshi Zhang Family, Hanjiang Li Family, they are either in groups or standing alone, all wearing Taoist robes and looking solemn. .
"Mu Han, don't lose your temper. Although Fairy Lin is on good terms with you, you two have no marriage contract after all. Now Fairy Lin is free to marry Tie Zhenjun."
" What Tie Zhenjun is, he's just a fool who reached the sky in one step with the help of the Ghost Infant Fruit. , Why should he marry Qinghan? It must be that old man Huang who forced her, I must at least ask clearly!"
Zhong Muhan of Haoran Academy, a seventh-level monk of the Golden Core, and the true successor of Yuanying Zhenjun of Haoran Academy! One of the disciples has a lot of confidence in taking further steps in the future.
As early as more than a hundred years ago, he had never forgotten it after unexpectedly meeting Lin Qinghan in Phantom Cloud Valley. After Lin Qinghan refined the golden elixir, he originally planned to come to propose marriage, but he missed it because of a retreat. , who would have expected that as soon as she came out of seclusion this time, she would hear the news that Fairy Lin Qinghan was going to marry the True Lord of our sect, so she came immediately.
Middle-aged Confucian scholar Ouyang Yi looked at this nephew and shook his head. However, since the senior brother allowed his nephew to come, it was obvious that the senior brother also wanted to test the truth and verify the truth of the rumor, even if it caused a scene. If you're older, it's just the nonsense of the younger generation, and it's easier to brush it off.
when.
With a crisp bell, the ceremony officially began. A white-haired old man stood up. It was Huang Daozhong, the supreme elder of Huanyun Valley.
As the old man waved his sleeves, the color of the sky and the earth changed, and the clouds rolled in the sky, as if welcoming this sacred moment. All the cultivators present closed their eyes and concentrated, feeling the spiritual energy from heaven and earth gathering together.
