Chapter 258: The two bones on the road, nothing can trip him up

Look at the special tasks on the panel.

Lu Chen just glanced at it briefly and stopped paying attention.

Because this so-called special mission is essentially just a bonus.

If he could break through to the super-grade golden elixir, then the reward for this special task would be dispensable.

If the breakthrough fails, there will be no reward for this mission.

The Ascension Platform is located on the top of Qingyun Peak, which is the highest among the Five Qingyun Peaks.

Therefore, the Ascension Platform is the highest place in the entire Qingyun Sect.

Standing here, you can overlook the entire Qingyun Sect.

There is a sense of heroism in looking down upon all the other mountains.

The distance from the main hall of Qingyun Peak to the ascension platform is not long, and it can be reached in just over ten seconds of flying on a sword.

Lu Chen summoned his Shangqingyun Sword, took a step forward, and flew into the air.

With the spiritual rain falling on his head, Lu Chen quickly arrived at the top of the ascension platform.

I saw that the ascension platform was made of a huge flawless jade stone.

The patterns on the jade are completely natural, without any traces of carving, as if they were born that way.

The moment Lu Chen saw these patterns, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Lu Chen thought about it carefully and seemed to have seen a similar texture on the Gathering Immortal Bell during the True Immortal Trial.

According to legend, the ascension platform was brought from the fairyland by the immortal Qingyun.

Lu Chen felt that these textures might conceal the difference between immortals and mortals.

However, with his current vision and cultivation level, it would undoubtedly be a pipe dream to want to comprehend the mystery of it.

Therefore, Lu Chen did not waste too much time on this and landed directly in the center of the ascension platform.

As the distance got closer, Lu Chen observed more details of the ascension platform.

The four pillars surrounding the ascension platform.

Each of these four pillars is engraved with various runes and patterns. These runes and patterns are different from the ascension platform itself and are carved later.

On these four pillars, Lu Chen vaguely saw several names, one on each pillar.

Looking at those familiar yet unfamiliar names.

Lu Chen suddenly understood.

These four pillars just correspond to the four ancestors who successfully ascended to heaven in the history of Qingyun Sect.

This also means that if other people in Qingyun Sect can ascend successfully in the future, they will also leave their own pillar on this ascension platform.

It symbolizes that they are the "backbone" of Qingyun Sect.

In Qingyun Sect, these four pillars have a special name... the Ascension Pillars.

In addition to their symbolic significance, these four pillars of ascension actually also have certain special effects.

In the very center of these immortal pillars, there is a golden talisman.

Although the talisman has been through the test of time, it still emits a crystal-clear light.

And these lights became even stronger after Lu Chen stepped onto the ascension platform.

In a trance, Lu Chen seemed to see four immortals with blurry faces, looking at him from the sky.

Among these four people, three men and one woman, they are the four ancestors of Qingyun Sect who had successfully ascended to heaven.

These gazes did not stay for long and soon disappeared.

At the same time as these four gazes disappeared, Lu Chen discovered that the ascension platform under his feet also began to emit a mysterious white light.

Immediately afterwards, a mysterious power began to bless him.

[You have received the blessing of the Qingyun Sect's ascenders of all generations. In the next period of time, your success rate of breakthrough will be greatly improved...]

At this moment, Lu Chen felt that his cultivation had not improved significantly.

But his spirit and energy reached an unprecedented peak.

That feeling is even better than enlightenment.

After all, when a monk has an epiphany, he is putting his whole body and soul into the inner scene.

In exchange for this, one can gain absolute understanding of the Tao.

But he was actually in a real "external scene", yet he still retained that amazing understanding of the great principles of heaven and earth.

One is an interior scene, the other is an exterior scene. The two seem to be only one word different, but the effects they produce are worlds apart.

'No wonder Qingyun Peak is known as the top of the five Qingyun Peaks. The effect brought by this ascension platform is definitely the dream of countless immortal cultivators.'

'After all, this special state of enlightenment cannot be achieved by ordinary means, not to mention that this state will still be effective even if one reaches the Nascent Soul Tribulation or the Spiritual Transformation Tribulation.'

"If Qingyun Sect opens the Ascension Platform and uses it to attract great monks and masters of great magical powers, I'm sure these people will not refuse."

"The first sect in Qingyun Realm is indeed worthy of its reputation. With this ascension platform, there is basically no possibility that Qingyun Sect will be discontinued."

After personally experiencing the effect of the ascension platform, Lu Chen gave it a very high evaluation.

After making sure that he now had all the conditions for a breakthrough, Lu Chen immediately stopped suppressing his cultivation.

In an instant, tremendous spiritual power emanated from Lu Chen's body.

These spiritual powers continued to interweave, and eventually formed four phantoms of immortal swords around Lu Chen.

Looking at the four magic swords hovering around the ascension platform.

The people from Qingyi who were not far away all had strange looks on their faces.

Among them, the three great masters from Cangjian Peak looked the most excited.

"No wonder, no wonder you called us out, Little Sikong. This young man's swordsmanship attainments are so high that ordinary people can hardly imagine."

“If I hadn’t seen it, these four sword domains might seem independent, but in fact they are secretly in line with each other’s formation.”

"Combining the sword domain and the formation in the transformation domain is bold, indeed bold, but..."

The Yuanying stage elder of Hidden Sword Peak's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "...Sword cultivation is originally a lineage of sword cultivation. If you don't have the courage to seize the sky, then what's the point of practicing sword cultivation!"

"As sword cultivators, we should move forward courageously!"

Although Qing Yi, who was standing aside, was not a sword cultivator, he agreed with the words of the elder of Cangjian Peak.

After all, unlike other ways, the way of sword emphasizes killing and downplays defense.

The best defense is offense.

Boom!

As Lu Chen exerted his full strength, the sky above the ascension platform was gradually covered by dark clouds.

And this time, there appeared a thundercloud of natural disaster.

Its scale and the thickness of the clouds were far greater than the thunder tribulation that Lu Chen had experienced before during the Foundation Establishment Period.

In the world of immortal cultivation, there is a saying that has been circulating regarding the golden elixir tribulation of cultivators.

"In the tribulation of the golden elixir, ten miles is mediocre, fifty miles is medium, and a hundred miles is the best."

In simple terms, thunderclouds of ten miles are ordinary golden elixir thunderclouds, and thunderclouds of fifty miles are medium-grade thunderclouds that have the potential to impact the authentic golden elixir.

Above a hundred miles away are the great cultivators who have the hope of achieving the Heavenly Dao Golden Elixir.

The thunderclouds created by Lu Chen at the moment were so exaggerated that the distance had reached a thousand miles.

It was a hundred times more than that of an ordinary foundation-building cultivator! Suddenly, the wind and clouds changed suddenly, the golden sun hid its brilliance, and day and night were reversed.

Such a strange phenomenon in heaven and earth shocked even the knowledgeable old ancestor Qing Yi in the Spirit Transformation Stage.

He looked at Lu Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on the Ascension Platform, and said with a complicated expression: "If even this boy cannot become an immortal in the next thousand years, then it is definitely not his fault. It is because this world no longer allows the fifth immortal to appear."

After hearing Qing Yi's evaluation of Lu Chen, Gu Liqing and others not only did not think that Qing Yi was exaggerating, but instead felt that what he said made sense.

The golden elixir thunderclouds spread over a thousand miles, and the wind and clouds rolled up day and night.

Before Lu Chen, they had never imagined that when a Foundation Establishment cultivator broke through to the Golden Core stage, there would be such a terrifying phenomenon in heaven and earth.

Fortunately, they were well prepared and closed the mountain and the sect in advance.

Avoid detection by other interested parties.

Otherwise, if people from other sects knew that the person who caused such a commotion was just a small foundation-building cultivator.

It was like a thunderclap that landed on the plain of Zhongzhou which had been quiet for so long.

Anything, any object, is always full of shock when it appears for the first time.

The commotion caused by Lu Chen's golden core tribulation was unprecedented.

At the same time, in a village hundreds of miles away from Qingyun Sect.

A fisherman who was collecting his nets on a fishing boat looked up in horror.

Because just now, the sky, which was originally clear, suddenly turned pitch black.

In addition, a large number of bubbles suddenly appeared in the river under his feet, and countless fish floated to the surface, looking towards the sky in unison.

It looked as if he was expecting something.

Such a scene frightened the fisherman so much that he didn't even dare to collect the net. He just knelt on the fishing boat and bowed towards a certain direction in the distance.

As a mere mortal, he had no idea what was going on.

But he had a feeling that something big was going to happen today.

As to whether this was a good thing or a bad thing, he didn't know.

Therefore, he could only kneel down to seek peace of mind.

Similar situations do not only occur in this small village.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

In the mountains and forests surrounding Qingyun Sect, birds and beasts chirped, and insects and snakes came out of their holes.

But these beings, which were natural enemies in the past, now gathered together harmoniously.

Even the tiger, the king of beasts, did not attack the small animals around it at this time, but looked in the direction of Qingyun Sect with a confused look.

It doesn't know why it does this.

But it instinctively feels that it should do so.

The blue sky covers the mountains and rivers for thousands of miles, the wind is rising and the clouds are rolling in the sky, and all things in the world are silent.

Seeing such a scene, the disciples in Qingyun Sect who were unaware of the inside story immediately became a little panicked.

Under that special induction, many Qingyun monks who were still in seclusion came out of their caves one after another.

The moment they stepped out of the cave, they were immediately attracted by the wonders of Qingyun Peak.

The spiritual energy around the main peak of Qingyun seemed to be swept up by some force, connecting with the thunderclouds above, and turning into a vortex that rushed into the sky, emptying with the clouds and spreading for thousands of miles.

Although they didn't know who was directly below the vortex.

But they knew very well that anyone who could make such a noise was definitely not an ordinary person.

Is it a great cultivator of our sect who is making a breakthrough? Driven by curiosity, they knew that the main peak was closed.

But still flew towards the main peak.

Even if I can't watch this long scene up close.

It's also great to watch from a distance.

In an instant, countless flying swords appeared in the darkness.

Thousands of Qingyun monks gathered around the main peak, guessing which sect elder was undergoing the tribulation.

And at this time on the main peak of Qingyun.

Lu Chen sat cross-legged in the center of the ascension platform, his dantian glowing faintly.

Not only that, Lu Chen's body at this time appeared translucent, making the spiritual foundation of his dantian clearly visible.

But unlike ordinary people, he only has one or a few spiritual bases.

Lu Chen has five spiritual platforms and immortal bases.

This also symbolizes his five elements spiritual roots.

The so-called golden elixir is to break down and then stand up.

First break the immortal foundation and then form the elixir.

The less immortal foundation one has, the easier it is to form a pill.

On the contrary, the difficulty soars.

Not to mention that Lu Chen’s immortal foundation is not just an ordinary immortal foundation, but a first-grade great Dao immortal foundation.

This made it countless times more difficult for him than for ordinary people even to take the first step of forming a pill, 'breaking the foundation'.

If others' 'breaking the foundation' is just equivalent to breaking a stone.

Lu Chen's "breaking the foundation" is equivalent to breaking five pieces of fine steel that have been tempered a thousand times.

And these five pieces of fine steel still need to be broken into almost powder form.

Only in this way can the five pieces of fine steel be better integrated together.

Fortunately, Lu Chen had been prepared, so although his "base breaking" process was slow, it was proceeding in an orderly manner.

Bang! As the first 'Golden Immortal Base' was shattered, Lu Chen's aura rose to a higher level.

Without any hesitation, Lu Chen immediately put his energy into destroying the next immortal base.

Bang! After another day, Lu Chen destroyed the second "Wood Immortal Base", and his cultivation level was raised to another level.

Day 5…

Bang! With the last "Earth Immortal Base" shattered, Lu Chen's five elements spiritual roots finally all returned to "liquid state".

Afterwards, he used his own soul as the guide and began to force these immortal spiritual liquids to begin to merge with each other.

This stage is also not easy.

Because it is not an easy task to make the five fairy spirit liquids with different attributes merge with each other and keep them in a balance.

If Lu Chen is not careful, he will fail because of the uneven attributes.

Therefore, Lu Chen needs to maintain absolute concentration and multitask throughout the entire process.

Fortunately, Lu Chen had already mastered the ability to multitask during the process of refining the elixir.

Therefore, the second stage of "condensing the pill" was not too difficult for him except that it was tedious.

Another five days passed.

A crystal clear and round five-colored elixir appeared in Lu Chen's dantian.

At this point, the process of condensing the pill is completely completed.

And then come the two most important steps.

One step is "Danwen" and the next step is "Danjie".

Danwen refers to Lu Chen's fusion of his own "Tao" into his own golden elixir.

To form a pill means that Lu Chen needs to successfully pass the baptism of the heavenly tribulation.

These two steps are extremely important for every cultivator who wants to break through to the Golden Core stage.

Because the former determines the quality of the cultivator's future golden elixir, and the latter determines whether the cultivator can successfully enter the golden elixir realm.

As for Lu Chen, the only place where he might fail is at the step of 'Danwen'.

After all, it is not easy to integrate a Hedao sword domain.

Not to mention the fusion of four.

But being difficult does not mean not doing it.

If there is no inhuman suffering, how can we talk about inhuman merit.

Facing his initially formed liquid elixir, Lu Chen immediately engraved one of his Hedao realm sword domains on it.

And this sword domain... is a sea of ​​blood and corpses representing the bloody sword intent.

In an instant, Lu Chen felt his surroundings spinning.

When he opened his eyes again, what he saw was a sea of ​​blood and corpses shrouded in murderous intent.

It’s just different from the previous scene where he fought the enemy with mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

This time... he became the target of the Sword Domain.

Lu Chen looked at all this and understood that this was the inner demon scene of the golden elixir calamity.

If he wants to survive the disaster safely, what he needs to do is to defeat himself.

Without stopping for too long, Lu Chen took a step forward and walked towards the top of the Bone Mountain in the sea of ​​blood not far away.

As he moved forward, countless skeletal arms appeared from both sides, trying to drag him off the 'Tao'.

But before these arms could touch Lu Chen, they were forced back by a golden light.

At this moment, Lu Chen seemed to be in an empty space, walking steadily and firmly towards the top of the Bone Mountain.

There are no bones on both sides of the road that can trip him up...
