Chapter 221: Asking for silence, transforming into a thunder calamity!
Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian took a step back at the same time, took out their magic weapons and activated their body-protecting essence.
Put yourself ready for battle at any time.
Because the thing talking in front of me is not a human being.
But a demon!
A great demon in disguise!
No... to be precise, it should be a great demon that has transformed into half of its form!
This is a demon that looks half like a human race.
From a distance, he looks like an unusually tall old man.
He is nearly one foot tall and has a strong build. He is covered in clothes made of leaves and decorated with a few pink peach blossoms.
Looking at that human face again, it was full of wrinkles, like tree bark.
At this moment, he forced a smile on his face, which looked even more charming.
Looking at the old man's head, it is not hair, but slender vines and intertwined branches, and a huge peach.
What’s even more impressive is the old man’s limbs.
The left arm and left leg are clearly human flesh and blood, but the right arm and right leg are thick tree trunks.
This old man who looks like a tree makes people feel terrified.
This is a tree demon!
Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian looked at each other with a look of horror at the same time.
The great demon in transformation is equivalent to the human monk who transforms into gods!
In front of me, although this tree demon has not yet transformed into a human form, it has already passed through half of the lightning tribulation.
At least he is a great demon at the peak of Nascent Soul, or... half-step into becoming a god!
"This...what kind of luck is this? I actually met the big demon who was about to transform!"
Lin Chen took a deep breath, but did not dare to act rashly.
At this moment, the old tree demon still smiled and repeated the sentence he just asked:
"Fellow Taoist, do you think I look like a human being?"
After hearing this, Lin Chen was confused and wanted to answer in the blink of an eye.
But the powerful consciousness quickly made Lin Chen wake up and he quickly kept silent.
Looking at Jiang Liqian again, she was stunned for a moment, but a piece of sapphire tied around her neck glowed brightly.
Soon she also regained consciousness.
Looking at Li Zhenqian and Zhou Tieshan, they did not have the deep cultivation to resist.
At this moment, they seemed to have lost their minds and opened their mouths to answer.
"You don't..."
Seeing that the two of them were about to speak out their words, Jiang Liqian's face changed drastically, and she quickly used a gag spell to seal the mouths of Li Zhenqian and Zhou Tieshan. live.
Lin Chen also reacted quickly and used a spell to quickly knock the two of them out.
At this time, Jiang Liqian had difficulty speaking, but she still said word by word:
"Senior, can you wait a moment?"
The old tree demon was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but he did not refuse. He just nodded and said:
"Okay, a quarter of an hour."
After that, he stood aside and looked at a few people quietly.
Jiang Liqian then stood next to Lin Chen, with a serious look on his face and said:
"Senior Brother Lin, something big has happened!"
"This is the great demon in disguise who wants to be silenced! And judging from his appearance, it is obvious that he has tried to beg for it once before, but failed... and ended up like this. It looks like that.”
Lin Chen nodded slightly after hearing this, and he thought so in his heart.
He didn't know much about asking for silence. He had only read rumors in ancient books, and this was the first time he met it.
According to legend, after a monster reaches the peak of the fourth level (Nascent Soul), it must undergo the thunder tribulation of transformation and cultivate into a human form.
However, monsters rely on blood and rarely have magic weapons to protect themselves, so it is much more difficult for humans to survive thunder tribulations.
There are some big demons who are about to transform, and they rarely harm human monks.
You will be able to obtain the same special method gifted by Heaven—asking for silence!
Help them survive the thunder catastrophe of transformation with the help of monks.
At this time, if the monk answers "like a human", the chance of the big demon surviving the thunder tribulation of transformation will be greatly increased.
But if the answer is "not like a human being", the great demon will lose the opportunity to survive the thunder catastrophe of transformation.
Lin Chen only knew that if he answered "Not like a human being", he would probably arouse the anger of this big monster.
At that time, facing the wrath of the transformed demon, all four of them will die without a burial place!
This is also the reason why Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian stopped Li Zhenqian and Zhou Tieshan from talking just now.
If their answers are different, all four of them will die miserably!
...
Lin Chen took a deep breath and sent a message to Jiang Liqian:
"Junior sister, we have no choice... we can only answer that we are human!"
Jiang Liqian nodded when he heard the words, but said through a message:
"Oh, if only it were as simple as you think... But there is a lot of importance in asking for silence!"
"We can only answer like a human being...but can we bear the cause and effect of this answer?"
After hearing this, Lin Chen frowned slightly and asked: "What cause and effect?"
Jiang Li Qian Qian obviously has much more knowledge than Lin Chen, but Seeing her, he said:
“Asking for silence is the power given by Heaven to monsters. Countless Yuanhui have appeared before.”
“But the power of thunder calamity is also the power of Heaven. It’s impossible to avoid.”
"Therefore, asking for a mouth seal... is actually the transformation of the great demon to pass on part of his thunder calamity to the monk who is being silenced."
"This is the way of heaven, there is something between a peck and a drink. "Definitely."
"To put it simply, if you answer that he is like a human being, By inheriting this cause and effect, the power of the transformation thunder will be transferred to you."
"It will have a great impact on the monk's fortune and even the future cause and effect."
After a pause, Jiang Liqian continued:
"You see, this tree demon seems human and inhuman. It has obviously been silenced once."
"But unfortunately, the person he silenced may not be able to bear the consequences, so this tree demon is the first to be silenced." A failed transformation..."
"Although I don’t know what method he used, he was able to It's enough to survive the Thunder Tribulation again... But obviously the cause and effect of asking for silence for the second time is much higher than the first time!"
After hearing this, Lin Chen frowned and asked again:
"Then the tree demon failed... What will be the fate of the first person to be silenced?"
Jiang Liqian replied decisively:
"It must be that the body has died! That person cannot bear the power of cause and effect..."
After hearing this, Lin Chen became more confused and asked:
"That's not right! It's not that the power of the thunder tribulation is transferred...that is How could the person seeking silence die on the spot?"
After hearing this, Jiang Liqian thought for a moment and said, "It must have been Tiandao's evaluation! Tiandao thought that the person could not bear the karma, so he killed him directly. ! I can’t wait for that person to survive the thunder tribulation!”
"Besides, the cause and effect of asking for silence is not only experienced during the thunder tribulation, but also has a great impact on the monks themselves! It is equivalent to that person carrying a heavy burden forward, and the speed of cultivation and future fortune and blessings may be affected..."
Hearing this, Lin Chen frowned even more.
He is very sure of surviving the thunder tribulation, so there is no need to worry.
But the speed of cultivation, luck and luck are affected... This is something Lin Chen cannot accept!
Especially the theory of luck, which is illusory but real, and determines the future achievements of monks to a large extent.
Lin Chen thought for a while and asked:
"Then...how to judge whether a person can bear the consequences of being silenced?"
This time, Jiang Liqian did not think too much. After a long time, he quickly replied:
"Mainly consider two aspects! One is the status and importance of this person! For example, there was a dynasty composed of monks many years ago, which was also called the Immortal Kingdom..."
"The Lord of the Immortal Kingdom has hundreds of millions of mortals in his hands. A monk’s life enjoys supreme authority and bears great karma.”
"Therefore, for the Lord of the Immortal Kingdom, the karma of just asking for silence is nothing..."
"Of course, this is also because the Lord of the Immortal Kingdom is strong enough!"
< br>"But if you are a member of the royal family of the fairy kingdom, although your cultivation level is not high, your status and luck are extremely strong. The royal family members and The fates of hundreds of millions of monks in the Immortal Kingdom are tied together, and they can also bear this cause and effect..."
After hearing this, Lin Chen nodded slightly and asked: "Then... what is the second one?"
>
"The second type depends on the talent of the monk being silenced!" Jiang Liqian explained as clearly as possible.
"As long as the monk's talent is strong enough, he is naturally not afraid of karma, because heaven will judge that he can survive the thunder tribulation smoothly... but he will also suffer some backlash."
Jiang Liqian finished explaining, Lin Chen was thoughtful after hearing this.
At this moment, Jiang Liqian was caught in a tangle.
She looked at the unconscious Li Zhenqian and Zhou Tieshan behind her.
He glanced at Lin Chen next to him again...for a while, as if he had made a major decision, his eyes were full of determination.
Jiang Liqian knew that even if he answered "like a human", the tree demon would be silenced.
But if the cause and effect cannot be tolerated, resulting in the failure of the transformation of thunder and lightning...
Everyone will still only end up dead!
Although Jiang Liqian was optimistic about Lin Chen's potential, she didn't think Lin Chen could withstand such a big cause and effect...
Because even if she wanted to promise this lip service, she would have to bear huge consequences.
At this time, a quarter of an hour has passed.
The old tree demon approached again and asked with a smile:
"Fellow Taoist, do you think I look like a human being?"
The tree demon smiled with a knife hidden in it, but Lin Chen didn't care. Suspicion, as long as the answer is not in line with his wishes, the four people will die tragically on the spot!
And Jiang Liqian took a deep breath and said:
"I see you..."
Just when Jiang Liqian was mid-sentence, she was pulled by Lin Chen.
Lin Chen smiled and said:
"Where is the resemblance? I think you are clearly a human being!"
Lin Chen answered so quickly that Jiang Liqian on the side didn't even react.
When she came to her senses, she looked at Lin Chen in shock.
She had clearly made the stakes of seeking silence...but Lin Chen still answered without hesitation.
And Lin Chen still had a smile in his eyes at this moment, clearly looking very relaxed.
"Senior Brother Lin..." Jiang Liqian muttered silently in her heart, and suddenly felt extremely moved.
She knew that Lin Chen's answer was worth tens of millions of favors.
But then, Jiang Liqian looked at Lin Chen with a worried expression, and silently held a certain jade seal in her arms.
“Hahaha~hahaha~”
In front of him, the old tree demon suddenly laughed loudly after hearing Lin Chen’s answer.
I was so excited that I almost shed tears.
"Finally, I'm finally going to transform!"
Lin Chen still stood where he was, looking at the tree demon calmly.
At the same time, I am also a little curious...
What is this thunder tribulation like?
Suddenly...
A huge gap opened in the sky, as if the sky was split open.
Lin Chen took a look and knew that what cracked was not the real sky, but the sky in this secret realm!
The way of heaven is greater than the heaven of ruins!
The power of heaven comes forcibly...
The tribulation is about to begin...
Thunderclouds gathered in the sky.
Boom boom boom!
In the calamity cloud, there seems to be thunder calamity rolling.
The old tree demon laughed loudly, jumped up, and flew towards the thunder tribulation in the sky...
"One, two, three...nine"
Lin Chen stood among the peach trees, looking up at the sky and counting the number of thunder tribulations.
"Forty-nine..."
It wasn't until Lin Chen counted to the forty-ninth number that the thunder disaster in the sky finally gradually dissipated.
At the same time, the skylight fell to the ground and filled the entire ruins.
The ruins of Longling Sect, within a radius of thousands of miles... All the monks are looking at the sky.
"From today on, a great demon will appear in Qingzhou!"
Jiang Liqian thought silently in her heart.
But she quickly looked at Lin Chen again, her eyes full of worry.
"Lin...Senior Brother Lin, how do you feel?"
Jiang Liqian was deeply afraid that Lin Chen would die suddenly...
Lin Chen blinked and said:
"I don't seem to feel anything..."
After hearing this, Jiang Liqian was stunned.
Not feeling it? This...how is this possible?
This is the cause and effect of the great demon’s thunder tribulation!
And it’s the Four Nine Thunder Tribulations!
According to the potential of the tree demon, it is impossible to survive!
Only because most of the causal power of the thunder tribulation was borne by Lin Chen... the tree demon was able to survive it smoothly.
Such a terrifying cause and effect, not to mention Lin Chen, even she had to pay a heavy price.
Jiang Liqian looked at Lin Chen carefully and saw that Lin Chen's face was rosy and his breathing was steady, as if he was not affected in any way...
"Could it be that...the power of cause and effect was transferred to Senior Brother Lin's Thunder Tribulation?"
Jiang Liqian guessed.
“Senior Brother Lin comes from a humble background. Naturally, he does not have the blessing of status and authority, and his strength is far inferior to that of the cultivator of the Transformation of Gods...”
“In this case, there is only one possibility, and that is the future of Senior Brother Lin. The potential is huge! Heaven recognizes... that he can bear this cause and effect..."
Thinking of this, Jiang Liqian's eyes showed a little sadness.
The power of the thunder tribulation is too great, and it is also a huge danger to the monks...
"No matter what, Senior Brother Lin endured this disaster for me...I must repay this favor in the future!"
< br>Jiang Liqian thought in her heart.
“Hahaha~hahaha~”
When all the lightning disasters receded, a hearty laughter came from high in the sky.
Soon, a figure appeared in front of Lin Chen.
It is the old tree demon!
But compared to the previous appearance of half human and half tree, the old man's appearance has changed greatly.
The height has changed from three meters to a little old man of 1.6 meters.
The limbs and body were completely transformed into a flesh-and-blood human form, and the bark-like skin on the face also faded away and turned into folds.
He was wearing a peach blossom gown and looked like a little old man on the roadside.
At this moment, he leaned over with a surprised look on his face, looked at Lin Chen and said:
“Weird, so strange!”
“I originally wanted to ask that woman The baby is asking for silence. She has mysterious luck and should be able to help me overcome the disaster... I didn't expect that you were the first to do so. "
"And, judging from your appearance... you didn't get it. What an impact!”
The old tree demon walked around Lin Chen a few times and couldn't help but sigh.
"You kid, you can't see through... I can't see through! What's the origin?"
After wandering around for a while, he cleared his throat and said:
< br>"Ahem, I, Tao Yao, am really You have never owed any favors in your life.”
“Today you help me get silence and survive the thunder catastrophe of transformation...I promise you three requests. As long as they are within my ability, you can make them. That’s it!”
Lin Chen blinked after hearing this, feeling slightly happy.
"There is such a good thing, this is a favor from the True Lord Transformation of Gods!"
"Did I blame this old man wrongly... Could it be that he is really a good person?"
At this time, Jiang Liqian explained via voice transmission:
"He is repaying karma. He is asking you for silence. He owes karma...it must be repaid, otherwise there will be no further progress in practice in the future!"
"However, this favor from the Great Demon Transformation is real. If you use it easily, it can be regarded as some compensation for the karma you bear..."
After hearing this, Lin Chen nodded silently. The favor from the True Lord Transformation is too great. It’s rare.
In front of him, Tao Yao Zhenjun urged with a smile:
"Junior, while I am in a good mood... hurry up and make a request."
Lin Chen knew Tao Yao Yao just wants to get rid of the cause and effect quickly.
He pondered for a moment and said:
"Okay!"
"My first request is that you kill the old devil with blood eyes and destroy the kingdom of the underworld!"
