Chapter 73 Fengyun, are they still alive?
Chu Sheng and others knew nothing about what happened in the world of cultivation, but Chu Sheng knew about Zong Shan's inexplicable disappearance and return.
But at this moment she had no time to ask about the whereabouts of her master.
Ming Fang brought them into the ancient ruins. The feeling of losing power almost instantly made everyone feel extremely uncomfortable.
Just as fish are deprived of water, birds are confined to the ground, and beasts are forced to hang in the air.
If Chu Sheng had not often encountered this kind of situation where her spiritual power was cut off, she would probably find it difficult to adapt to this feeling, just like most people.
Nagi Rinyu looked very uncomfortable.
The special circumstances of this place have caused all the cultivators who have set foot here to fall into confusion.
"...What does it mean that I can't use spiritual power/demon power/demon energy?"
"This ancient ruins is actually a place where souls are cut off?"
No. Not really.
Chu Sheng stretched out his hand, and a thin trace of demonic energy appeared in his palm.
It's not that the spirit is cut off, but if one does not master higher-level power, the spiritual power in the body will be powerless and empty like a drop in the bucket when the concentration of this power is too high.
How can an ant, which can only receive rain and dew, draw a drop of drinkable fresh water from the vast ocean?
Chu Sheng looked inward into her spiritual palace and was not surprised to see that the once flourishing Golden Lotus of Creation was showing a rare sign of withering. Yun Mengzi, who had been sitting upright on the Golden Lotus, looked up and met her eyes.
"Sheng'er."
"Master, please teach me." Chu Sheng's consciousness condensed into a physical entity in the spiritual palace, just like the magic spells that had been taught to him, and he sat quietly in front of Yun Mengzi.
"With my current cultivation level, how can I condense immortal energy?"
She was certain that Yun Mengzi knew this method, and Yun Mengzi did know it.
Yun Mengzi had long been on the brink of ascension. If it weren't for his obsession, he would have ascended even earlier than Yun Zhongjun and Yanjun...
In the entire world of cultivation, no one knows better than him what he needs to do.
There is no fundamental difference between immortal energy and spiritual power. It just requires the cultivator to go through a long baptism of thunder tribulation, tearing and reorganizing the body again and again like a butterfly shedding its cocoon, and compressing, condensing, compressing and condensing the spiritual power in the body.
This kind of pain is definitely not something that ordinary people can endure, but after Chu Sheng heard Yun Mengzi's words, even her eyelashes did not tremble.
“Please teach me, Master,” she simply said.
Chu Sheng knew that his time was more pressing than that of ordinary people.
Yun Mengzi is waiting for a certain opportunity. I'm afraid he won't let her slowly look for an opportunity that would allow them to ascend together. Instead, he will try his best to ascend to the upper realm himself.
She didn't understand why Zongshan was so pessimistic about the prospect of ascension, and Zongshan would not tell her the reason.
Zongshan would only blindly let her move forward, upward, and towards a higher direction...as if his existence and ten thousand years of waiting were just to support Chu Sheng on her path to success.
The Golden Lotus of Creation can gradually repair the broken path. Chu Sheng had previously taken advantage of the moment when Yun Mengzi was not on guard against him and used the characteristics of the Golden Lotus of Creation to block Zong Shan's original plan of merging the great paths.
She had no real success, and Yun Mengzi had no real failure. The two of them, each holding their own opinion, were like two ends of a scale, both tacitly waiting for the final curtain to come.
If Chu Sheng wins, both master and disciple will ascend to heaven, or if Zong Shan wins, he will help Chu Sheng achieve immortality.
But Chu Sheng always felt that it was not that simple.
She still remembered that when she first met Xiao Tiandao in Yunshui Xuantian, the other party's request was [normal ascension].
Ignoring other incongruities for now, the first thing she wanted to question was—
Since Xiao Tiandao called her "Wuqing Daozi" at the beginning, it means that in his eyes, Wuqing Dao should be her Dao.
But Zongshan had lived in the world for countless years, and he was indeed a cultivator of the ruthless way. Not to mention that he actually took the initiative to mention the difference between Yunshui Xuantian...
This fully illustrates the point that Zongshan is not completely ignorant of many things, he is just pretending to be deaf and dumb.
Chu Sheng really wanted to suspect whether this time travel was a trap set by Xiao Tiandao and Yun Mengzi for her...but she had no evidence and could not find out why they did this.
She asked herself, she was just an ordinary time-traveling girl, she hadn't made any remarkable achievements in the mortal world, and there was nothing worth pursuing in heaven. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't find any reason for being treated specially.
But Chu Sheng believed that one of his strengths was that he never took things he couldn't figure out to heart.
If you can’t think of it, don’t think about it. There will always be a way out when you reach the mountain, and there will be another village after the dark clouds and flowers!
Yun Mengzi held her hand and walked on the meridian map condensed in the spiritual palace.
"The principle behind how cultivators compress their spiritual energy to advance to higher realms is essentially to transform qi into liquid, liquid into pill, pill into infant, and infant into all things... But Sheng'er, you're different from others."
The golden lotus that grew an entire spiritual palace was now blooming densely outside the spiritual bodies of the two. Yun Mengzi took Chu Sheng to roughly memorize the cycle of spiritual power flow, and then pointed to the overwhelming sea of lotus.
"Many great beings who have ascended to heaven deduce the path of the Tao within their own spiritual palaces. Some also create the world with their minds, transforming all things with one breath. The Golden Lotus Realm in Sheng'er's spiritual palace is not much different.
The Golden Lotus of Creation has already paved a major path for you. The rest is just a matter of continuing to move forward. It's not too difficult."
Thunder tribulation transforms and refines spiritual power? Coincidentally, this is what Chu Sheng is least afraid of.
As soon as he got the Golden Lotus of Fortune, he rushed back to Hehuan Sect to wrestle with the Mahayana Tribulation Thunder to snatch the person away. At that time, Chu Sheng naturally could not withstand all the heavenly thunder, and in the end, it was the Golden Lotus of Fortune, which was actually a model worker, who bore everything.
If it weren't for the doubts about Yunshui Xuantian's existence, in fact, directly channeling the thunder into the Sumeru mustard seed would be the best option.
But fortunately, the current result is not bad.
At least in Chu Sheng's spiritual palace at this moment, the Golden Lotus of Creation, which originally looked like a vast ocean, now appeared in a very complex form after absorbing the thunder of tribulation, the energy of the devil, and carrying the path of others.
For example, the one at hand, she reached out to touch the flower wrapped in purple lightning, and was unsurprisingly hit by the power of thunder.
This is feasible!
Chu Sheng relaxed his frown and turned to look at Yun Mengzi, who had become much quieter and more reserved, with a burning gaze.
"Master, are you still going to say that if I accept your teachings, I can ascend right here?"
"...This is an unchangeable fact, even though Master never said so."
Zongshan's expression changed slightly. The great monk with snow-white hair and golden eyes looked at his disciple who had grown a lot, with a gentle expression that did not allow for questioning.
"But the upper realm is in turmoil. Ascending is definitely not a good option at this moment. If Sheng'er wants to ascend, your master hopes you will think twice before doing so."
"That's good. I was worried that my sudden arrival in this place filled with dense immortal and demonic energy was one of Master's methods to secretly help me ascend."
Chu Sheng's heart sank, but he smiled.
"Don't worry, Master. I'm not planning on ascending hastily anytime soon. The Golden Lotus of Creation is quite mysterious. I won't act rashly before I've thoroughly studied it."
Chu Sheng moved his mind and controlled the lotus sea to move invisibly, separating Yun Mengzi and himself at two different ends, so that his consciousness was surrounded by the golden lotus of creation with strong power of thunder tribulation.
Tsk, that really hurts.
She opened her dark eyes.
Faced with his companions who were actively looking for solutions, and Ming Fang who seemed to be accustomed to this feeling of being restricted, Chu Sheng swallowed the words he wanted to say.
Before knowing the mystery of this place, it is better to act cautiously, so she turned and asked.
"May I ask where Senior Brother Yuan Qi is?"
"Zongzi is there." Ming Fang pointed to the magnificent city slowly emerging at the end of the distant sky.
In the rosy clouds woven like a myriad of auspicious rosy clouds, white cranes and golden phoenixes circled and danced around the imperial carriage in the sky. The excellent eyesight of the cultivators was enough for everyone present to see the details clearly:
The Heavenly Lord, whose face on the imperial carriage looked very similar to Yuan Qi, glanced over from afar. The coldness and scrutiny in his eyes made several people in the venue feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave and could not move!
"Is that Yuan Qi?" Qi An's hands were itching a little. He couldn't help but grab the Luo Shui at his waist, and was eager to send a sword through the air.
"How did he get himself into this state?"
"Luckily, Ye Ziqing isn't here." Ya Ge narrowed her eyes. "Yuan Qi looks like the type of person Ye Ziqing dislikes the most..."
"What kind of people?" Nagi Linyou was reminded by Chu Sheng. After he recovered from the shock by condensing the Heavenly Demonic Energy, he immediately stared around with wide eyes, trying to get some juicy news.
Unfortunately, the Tianzun who looked like Yuan Qi had already driven away in his car, and he didn't even see the exhaust fumes.
"Senior Sister, it's not good here. My little cuties are out of strength..." The Jade Baby was complaining coquettishly about the fact that she had no spiritual power, but suddenly her expression changed!
"Senior Sister... Ugh!"
"Baby, what's wrong with you? Baby!" Chu Sheng was startled and immediately took a few steps forward. Despite the sudden pressure for unknown reasons, he took out the pill from his sleeve and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?!" Fang Yuan panicked and tried to help the girl, whose face was as pale as gold paper, but he was knocked back several steps by the terrifying aura surrounding her!
"She's getting promoted?" Ling Fengzhi's expression grew serious. "This is an ancient ruin..."
Yes, this is an ancient relic that seems to be closely related to the upper realm. Why did the jade doll in the foundation-building period, who had not made any progress in cultivation because of sharing the path with others, suddenly make progress?
Chu Sheng realized something.
Is Yu Jujiu, the chief priest of the Beast Taming Sect who claimed that he was going to transcend the calamity and ascend to heaven, still safe and sound in the world of cultivation?
In the Hehuan Sect, Zixiao sighed.
"Ye Ziqing, although I have no hope for your character, but why did you directly pull me from High Heaven Pavilion? Shouldn't you give my master an explanation?"
"There's nothing to explain. If possible, I hope Venerable He Huan can come to the sect as well." Ye Ziqing turned his wrist, and the golden ink on the jade pen slowly dripped into the inkstone.
"I'm afraid that Venerable He Huan has also met with an unexpected accident." He looked up at Zixiao, his tone not relaxed.
"Nowadays, there are no longer any powerful beings in the Tribulation Crossing Stage surviving in this world of cultivation... You understand what I'm saying, Zixiao. This isn't a fact, but a changed rule."
Zixiao frowned, calculated for a moment, then looked up in surprise.
"How could it be...?! The secret of High Heaven Pavilion has actually been obscured by someone?"
"Nowadays, the highest level of cultivation in this world is Mahayana." Ye Ziqing said in a low voice.
"No one can explain what those great Heaven-Stepping Tribulation-crossing experts have experienced in the upper realm. This is a very dangerous signal."
Are they still alive?
No one knows, and no one can give a definite answer.
"Are they still alive?"
The Supreme Old Demon of the Bliss Sect looked around the empty space and laughed heartily, "How is it possible? How could the legendary Ming Emperor be such a kind-hearted person?"
He looked up at the inky dome with a mad look on his face.
"I alone am supreme, the Heavenly Demon Emperor! I will fuse the bones of thousands of people, forge a path to immortality, become one, and become the Supreme Emperor!"
Become a human being and become the supreme emperor!
Be the supreme emperor!
【Um? 】
A faint voice fell, like a drop of rain sinking into a deep pool, and everything about the Supreme Old Demon also sank into endless darkness.
"Not enough." The voice sighed. "Not enough, the evil spirit is far from enough... I've waited too long, time is running out, I can't let him go on like this any longer."
Amidst the surging darkness, the nameless being sighed again.
[Who of you can help me get down? ]
In the chaos, Yu Jujiu, who had inexplicably appeared here, spat out a mouthful of blood and responded with a "Pah." "Who the hell are you? What right do you have to order me around?"
[This personality is a bit like... although it's feathers instead of scales, but she should like it, right?]
The invisible big hand was like a cage, about to capture her. Seeing this, Yu Jujiu sneered and ignited the blood-like Nirvana flame from her fingertips!
"I've been manipulated by a bunch of idiots for most of my life. What kind of idiot wants to manipulate me? Don't even think about it!"
The phoenix's flames burned very quickly, and in a few breaths, everything was burned to ashes. Even the endless darkness became a little lighter, as if it was burned away together.
[Alas.] The being said regretfully, [It’s fine if it’s gone... but what about you?]
His attention turned to another direction, and the silent opponent responded with a bright sword light that was enough to cut the sky in half!
"Fuck you, you bastard!" the other party scolded without hesitation. The Sword God's eyes were filled with surging anger, as bright and open as thunder, and he rushed straight towards the illusory center without any hesitation.
"——If you have the guts, just kill me! Come on!"
You sound so angry, it seems like I've used the wrong approach again?
【Why. 】
Ever since that guy separated from me, there are people everywhere around me who can't understand what I'm saying... The being hesitated for a moment in some confusion, but still stretched out an invisible arm to the other party.
