The earth shook and thunder roared!

Even though the old Taoist priest was prepared, he was almost frightened.

What kind of thunder-attributed flying sword is that? The magic on the sword is so powerful that even my Divine Thunder is not as powerful as it!

When the smoke and dust around them cleared, everyone saw that the rock wall in front of them had disappeared, and was replaced by a large water-blue light curtain, like a clear sky.

The immortal ruins have been opened!

The three of them couldn't hide their surprise on their faces, but they all remained calm.

The old Taoist priest knew that his realm was low, and even if he went in, he would probably be powerless, and his life might even be in danger.

An Zhisu was well-informed and knew that although the secret realm was designed to allow people to enter, not everyone was welcome.

For example, to the west of Shu Mountain, among the snow-capped peaks of Tubo, there is a "Red Demon Palace".

It is unknown who created it. For female monks, it is a trial. If they fail, they will be banned and sent out. For male monks, the difficulty is doubled. If they die in there, they will die for real...

All in all, although the immortal secret realm was successfully opened, we should not take it lightly.

Ling Yunpo was well prepared, and instructed Kunlun Mirror in his mind:

"Ajing, what's going on inside?"

"The entrance should be two-way, so that you won't be unable to get out once you enter." Kunlun Mirror analyzed, "Well, judging from the prohibition method, it doesn't seem to have any malicious intent..."

"Can you tell whether there is malicious intent or not?" Ling Yunpo asked curiously.

"Of course, you are also someone who understands formations. This formation is similar to a ban." Kunlun Jing explained, "Some formations are mainly for restriction and siege, and their lethality is not strong, leaving room for maneuver in many places; some formations are obviously to trap you to death even if they can't kill you. The methods of these two are definitely different!"

"What you said does make some sense." Ling Yunpo stopped pestering and turned to An Zhisu and said with a smile, "Senior Sister, let's go."

"Okay." An Zhisu turned around and said, "I met your disciple in the mountains before. In order to prevent the escaped demons from seeking revenge on him, we have placed him in Kuaiji City first."

The old Taoist priest was surprised to hear this, and naturally thanked him profusely. He thought that these two people were really thoughtful and kind, and it was worth it for me to reveal the news of the secret realm to them.

After bidding farewell to the old Taoist priest, An Zhisu picked up the Feiyan Sword and stepped into the water-blue light curtain.

Ling Yunpo also followed him in, and felt the sky spinning and the earth spinning, and the surroundings suddenly became bright.

The two of them were now in a square.

The square is located at the top of the mountain, with white jade railings and bluestone steps. It is somewhat similar to the Tianji Square on the Golden Summit of Emei Mountain in Shushan, but the carvings and style are much more grand.

Just in front of the two of them, connecting to the White Jade Square, was a spacious, straight suspended corridor that led to the pavilions and towers stacked in the distance.

Ling Yunpo keenly discovered that the architectural style of these pavilions and towers was very similar to the "Secret Realm of the Queen Mother of the West" in the Kunlun Mountains. They all stood high in the clouds and mist, with the magnificence and grandeur of immortal palaces.

However, the secret realm of Queen Mother of the West is majestic and ancient, without paying attention to details; the architecture of this secret realm is exquisite and gorgeous.

Looking closely, you will see that the flying eaves and empty pavilions are all finely carved; the green tiles and golden pillars are all sparkling.

The corridors leading to these pavilions are built with dark sandalwood and are very elegant.

Every few feet, there were carvings of strange beasts sitting cross-legged on the railings, but it was impossible to tell what kind of monsters they were.

At the entrance of the corridor, where it connects to the square, there is a pillar on each side.

The left column is engraved with "Twelve Towers and Five Cities".

The pillar on the right is engraved with "White Jade Capital in Heaven".

"Bai Yujing?" Ling Yunpo stared at the pillar, secretly surprised.

"Junior brother, do you know the origin of this secret realm?" An Zhisu asked curiously.

"No, I just think the name 'Bai Yu Jing' is very impressive." Ling Yunpo said with a wry smile, "Senior Sister, have you heard of it?"

"No." An Zhisu shook her head.

In fact, Ling Yunpo lied.

The place name "Baiyujing" has many records in Taoist scriptures, but nowadays, except for the monks in Penglai Yuqing Temple, few people will read the Taoist scriptures.

According to the Taoist Canon, to ascend to the heaven as a mortal, one must first arrive at the "White Jade Capital", then go to the "Golden Palace", after which one passes the "Seven Treasures Mysterious Garden", and finally the "Great Light Hall".

According to the annotations of the predecessors of Yuqing Temple, these four places do not really describe the heavenly environment, but are metaphors that imply the four steps of ascending to heaven.

Baiyujing refers to the physical body;

The golden palace refers to consciousness;

The Seven Treasures Mysterious Garden refers to the soul;

The Great Hall of Light refers to the origin;

There are four steps to ascending to heaven, and each step is more difficult than ascending to heaven.

For example, there are four subdivisions of immortal ranks, which are divided according to the completion rate of the four steps to immortality.

The rank of earthly immortals is “no more than the White Jade Capital”: it means that the physical body is defective, so one has to go through tribulations every thousand years, and is the lowest grade among the immortals.

The rank of celestial immortal is "blocked by the golden palace": it means that the consciousness is not pure, so one has to kill the three corpses, abandon the human nature and keep the divinity, which is a low-quality celestial being.

The Golden Immortal level, "staying overnight in the Seven Treasures Mysterious Garden": means that the soul is clear, the body and mind are all transparent, and one can become a complete saint, which is the best among the immortals.

As for the Daluo Golden Immortal, he "sits in the Great Light Hall" and is one of the few super powerful ones among the Golden Immortals, the best among the immortals.

At this level, not only is the soul clear and the body sanctified, but even the origin is in harmony with the heaven and earth - unless the sky collapses and the world is destroyed, it is basically impossible to be killed by any external force.

Of course, legend has it that above the Daluo Jinxian, there is an even more powerful realm called "Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian".

At this level, even if the universe is destroyed and the avenue collapses, he will not die...

In short, since this secret realm is called "Bai Yujing", it is very likely a secret realm that tests one's bone strength.

Due to Ling Yunpo's character setting, he should know nothing about Daozang, so this information cannot be told directly to his senior sister.

Fortunately, when the Shushan Sword Immortal accepts disciples, aptitude and talent are the most important.

As the number one person under the Golden Elixir level in Shushan, An Zhisu must have good roots;

He possesses the talent of "natural sword bones" and his bones are ridiculously strong.

Therefore, the next secret realm test should not be difficult for me and my senior sister, unless it is specially designed to only allow those above the Jindan level to participate...

Ling Yunpo was lost in thought for a long time, and An Zhisu beside him did not disturb him. He just walked around the square leisurely with his hands behind his back, admiring the clouds and mountains and gazing at the distant buildings.

Um?

She suddenly felt something in her heart, and realized that the layout of the pavilions and towers in the distance gave her a strange and sharp feeling.

To put it in an analogy, it is like being locked in layers of sheaths, but still unable to conceal its murderous aura...

A sword?
