Chapter 46 Cold Pond
Unconsciously, the red clouds had flown very high. Xu Heng looked down and saw clouds rolling in and out, like the sea churning. Yingzhou and Jingshui could no longer see each other.
Seeing this, Xu Heng stopped paying attention, but suddenly, he found that the sun in the sky seemed to be farther away. Then he was shocked to realize that although he had no physical sensation, he was actually flying in the sky like lightning.
This and Ling Lingxiu's Yunfa are so different that they can't be compared.
Xu Heng vaguely felt that this trip might have completely left the land of Fengchao, but he had no idea how far it would go.
He didn't ask any more questions, he just counted the time silently in his mind, hoping to get some idea.
In this way, when Xu Heng was about to count for more than two hours, he suddenly saw several divine peaks appearing vaguely in the boundless sea of clouds.
Xu Heng perked up and realized that in a moment, the divine peaks had become clear, and the two of them were indeed speeding towards it.
He looked carefully and found that there was a Tianchi Lake on top of Yi Zhu Shen Peak. Although it was not very wide, it was still enough to take care of it. He couldn't help but said to himself: "Is this Tianchi Mountain?"
"Tianchi Mountain?" Unexpectedly, Qiao Cheng suddenly smiled and said, "It's not time to go back to the mountain yet."
Seeing Xu Heng's unexpected look, Qiao Cheng snorted and said, "This is where Ji Tingsheng practiced in his previous life. You borrowed his fate method to worship me, so I sent you here." If you practice for a period of time, you will be able to complete your cause and effect."
While he was talking, the cloud head was already falling towards one of the sacred peaks.
Xu Heng found that this peak was the most majestic, and there were many palaces and temples built on it, all of which were made of gold tiles and glazed glass, making them extremely gorgeous.
In comparison, the remaining tallest one, the sacred peak with Wang Tianchi on the top, is a head shorter, and the scenery on the peak is also quieter, showing a clear distinction between priorities.
The cloud head was headed towards the main peak, and soon it landed in front of a palace door. Only then did Xu Heng feel that the clouds dispersed, his feet stepped on the ground, and someone had already come out of the door.
Xu Heng took a look and saw that it was a yellow-faced Taoist boy. When he came up, he bowed to Qiao Cheng and said politely: "Master Qiao, I have sent a special boy to greet you on your arrival."
Qiao Cheng nodded slightly and led Xu Heng through the door. The Taoist boy quickly followed his footsteps and came to the front to guide them. The three of them walked around until they arrived at an alchemy room.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a purple and gold Bagua stove in the middle, but it didn't seem to be on fire. In another place, a middle-aged Taoist wearing a fishtail crown and embroidered yin and yang patterns on his clothes was sitting on a futon.
Seeing the three people arriving, Qiao Cheng didn't stand up to greet them. Qiao Cheng didn't care. Instead, he smiled slightly, cupped his hands, and called out, "Fellow Daoist Ge."
"Master Qiao." Taoist Ge said calmly: "You're fine, why do you have time to be my guest?"
Qiao Cheng pointed at Xu Heng and said, "I'm here for the cause and effect."
"Really?" Ge Hong's face softened slightly, he glanced at Xu Heng again, and then said: "Since you are here, be a Taoist boy for me and be responsible for carrying water and fanning fire."
"Oh?" Qiao Cheng was a little surprised. He pondered for a moment and then said, "Then just follow what fellow Taoist said."
"Huang'er." Without any nonsense, Ge Hong called the Taoist boy over and said, "Take him to carry water."
The yellow-faced Taoist boy responded quickly and said: "Senior Brother Xu, please come with me."
Xu Heng was confused, but Qiao Cheng had no intention of explaining, so he could only follow the yellow-faced Taoist boy away in confusion. After walking around the hall for a few more times, the Taoist boy unexpectedly brought out two fine iron buckets and said that they were used to carry water. Just by looking at them, they probably couldn't be lifted by ordinary people.
But with Xu Heng's cultivation level, he was not worried, so he picked up the iron bucket and followed the Taoist boy out of the hall. The Taoist boy said again: "Senior brother, now go to the cold pool to get water."
"Hantan?" Xu Heng immediately thought of the Wangtianchi on top of another peak. Sure enough, when they reached the edge of the cliff, there was a thin rope tied to the stone pillars on the edge of the cliff and connected to the other end.
The Taoist boy naturally stepped onto the rope and walked towards the opposite peak.
These sacred peaks are all above the heavy clouds. God knows how high they are. The peaks are connected by a thin rope.
It is true that with the ability of a cultivator, it is not difficult to walk through it with ease, but the sky is unpredictable, and who knows if there is any eventuality?
Xu Heng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, but when he saw the Taoist boy walking steadily, he didn't have anything to fear, so he followed him onto the rope.
But he didn't expect that before he had taken a few steps, clouds and mist suddenly rolled up between the peaks and rolled up on him. Not only did he feel cold all over, but there was also a force of wind that threatened to push him down.
However, Xu Heng's practice was not shallow after all, so he did not react in time. He used his true energy to stabilize his body and was not affected. However, as he walked forward, he found that his vision had been completely enveloped by clouds and mist.
Xu Heng looked down and found that even the rope under his feet was a little unclear, so he couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
With his ability, if he really fell, he would be dead, but...
The road to spiritual practice is more difficult and dangerous than this. If you can be frightened away by a rope, what kind of immortality and path will you seek?
Xu Heng withdrew his gaze, without even looking, and strode forward. After walking for about a moment, he saw that the clouds and fog had dispersed, and he had reached the opposite peak.
The yellow-faced Taoist boy was waiting. When he saw Xu Heng coming, he was surprised and said, "Senior brother crossed the Immortal Bridge so fast."
Xu Heng guessed that this Immortal Crossing Bridge might be a magic weapon from Ge Hong's lineage, used to test his disciples, but he just smiled slightly and said: "Junior Brother Miuzan, let's get some water quickly."
The yellow-faced Taoist boy nodded. When he got here, he no longer needed to lead the way, but he still reached the edge of the cold pool, pointed down, and said: "Brother, this cold pool is divided into nine levels. You must dive to the third level." The water can be used to make elixirs."
Xu Heng stepped forward and asked, "How do you distinguish the third floor?"
"Senior brother will know when we reach the third level." The yellow-faced Taoist boy said: "But senior brother must not forget to activate the true energy to protect the body."
Xu Heng looked at the bottomless depths of the pool and nodded. Without taking off his clothes, he mobilized his true energy to protect his whole body, even reaching his hair and hair. He secretly performed a Water Avoidance Technique, and then jumped up. Jump into the water.
When he first entered the pool, Xu Heng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and realized that his ability to avoid water had naturally dissipated. However, he was prepared in his heart and dived in. After passing nine feet deep, he felt that his whole body was filled with ice. A cold air had already invaded his skin.
Xu Heng was not surprised either, secretly saying that it was true, he increased his speed and swam towards the depths.
He expected that the third level would be even colder, so he had to take out the water before the cold air invaded his body. However, he didn't expect that just after he was about to pass nine feet, his whole body froze and he fell straight down deeper. go.
