Chapter 259: Thousands of Miles of Thunderclouds Cover the Nine Stars, and the Undoubted Spiritual Light Shines on the Rainbow
The blood moon was in the sky, and the corpses were everywhere.
Lu Chen walked in the inner scene created by the Heart Demon Tribulation, and walked step by step towards the top of the Bone Mountain not far away.
The Heart Demon Tribulation, also known as the Heart Refining Pass, is a special tribulation that every cultivator will encounter when breaking through a great realm.
The reason is that every time a cultivator breaks through a realm, his own soul and the skyrocketing cultivation need a process of adaptation.
In this process, some dark sides originally hidden in the cultivator's heart will take the opportunity to magnify and affect the cultivator himself.
The principle that human nature is evil originates from this.
When it comes to the Golden Core Stage, especially when it comes to engraving Danwen.
The difficulty of this Heart Demon Tribulation will be further increased.
Because at this time, the Heart Demon is no longer the kind of "illusion" that can only confuse people's hearts.
It is a special test that can affect reality.
If the Heart Demon cannot be defeated, then all the cultivators have done before will not only fail.
Because of the invasion of the Heart Demon, their personality changes drastically, they fall into the devil's way, and completely release the dark side of their hearts.
At this time, there are two solutions.
One is to interrupt the breakthrough immediately after realizing that you cannot survive the inner demon tribulation.
Then spend a lot of time to adjust your mind and eliminate the influence of the inner demon.
Another way is to let outsiders intervene.
That's right, outsiders are allowed to help with the breakthrough at this stage.
Or, outsiders are allowed to interrupt.
The reason why Lu Chen had to find several Qingyun Sect masters to protect him before.
It was for this reason.
You must know that once the inner demon enters the upper elixir, Lu Chen will be completely immersed in the inner scene and his body will be controlled by the inner demon.
And the inner demon is the evil of human nature, and it is possible to kill people and even do some crazy things that ordinary people cannot understand.
It is to protect both himself and others.
Even though Lu Chen felt that he would not be troubled by the inner demon, he was still prepared to let several Qingyun masters watch him.
After all, if such a situation really happened, a mere Jindan stage cultivator could not wake him up.
It must be a Yuanying stage cultivator.
And it is better to have more Yuanying stage cultivators.
Prepare for the worst at every step and make adequate preparations for it.
This is what Lu Chen has always believed.
Just as Lu Chen walked to the Bone Mountain, the surrounding environment changed instantly.
Countless people who had died at Lu Chen's hands appeared on both sides of the Bone Mountain.
These people had hideous faces and fierce eyes.
They seemed to want to eat Lu Chen alive.
They looked at Lu Chen with their fangs and claws, as if as long as he dared to step on the Bone Mountain, they would attack him in unison.
In response, Lu Chen just looked at them expressionlessly and stepped onto the Bone Mountain calmly.
And this step was like a signal, immediately causing the surrounding karma resentful souls to swarm up.
But before they could get close to Lu Chen, a white spiritual light was released from Lu Chen's body.
"Ah!"
The moment those karma resentful souls touched the white light, they retreated.
Some who didn't have time to dodge were like ice and snow, melting into Lu Chen's white spiritual light on the spot.
Lu Chen didn't even look at the situation of these karmic resentful souls, and walked silently towards the blood-red long sword inserted at the top of the Bone Mountain.
Some manifestations of the inner demons were not his opponents when they were alive, and there was nothing to be afraid of after death.
And it was this flawless heart that turned into Lu Chen's protective aura at this time.
If this aura could not be broken, these karmic resentful souls would not be able to affect Lu Chen at all.
Under the protection of the protective aura, Lu Chen easily reached the top of the Bone Mountain.
And at this location, an unexpected person appeared.
"Xiao Lu, are you sure you want to pull it out?"
"You should know what this sword means. From the moment you pull it out, you will have no way out."
"If you go back now, you will still be the eternal number one prodigy of Qingyun Sect, and your life will be smooth."
"But if you pull it out, you are destined to take a road of no return. Do you think everyone will understand what you are doing?"
"Don't be naive. Many people don't see clearly, but don't want to see clearly."
"They will not thank you for waking them up from their beautiful dreams, but will blame you for not letting them continue to dream."
"Turn back, it's not too late to turn back now."
Looking at Jing Gong who appeared next to the blood sword, Lu Chen was silent.
He didn't expect that the person who appeared at the last moment of the first inner scene of the heart demon was his master Jing Gong.
Although he didn't spend much time with Jing Gong.
But the other party did help him a lot on his path of practice.
Since he became a disciple of Jing Gong, the other party has always supported him unconditionally.
It must be admitted that this unconditional support not only made Lu Chen feel at ease, but also brought some worries.
This worry was that Lu Chen was afraid that one day in the future, even Jing Gong would not recognize him for what he did.
If it really came to that, Lu Chen was not sure whether he could continue to follow his path.
After all, being an enemy of the whole world and being an enemy of someone you trust are two different things.
Perhaps this inner demon also saw the small worry hidden in his heart, so he materialized it and completely magnified it.
However...
Bang!
Lu Chen ignored the words of 'Jing Gong' and held the Taotie weapon inserted in the bone mountain with one hand.
For a moment, the entire blood sea began to shake violently.
Even Jing Gong, who was transformed from his inner demon, also transformed into Lu Chen in a burst of illusion.
But unlike Lu Chen's past calmness, the current inner demon Lu Chen seemed much more exaggerated.
Not only was he dressed in white, his hair and eyebrows were all white.
Paired with that cynical expression, he was completely on opposite ends of the spectrum from Lu Chen, who liked to dress in black.
The inner demon looked at Lu Chen and asked doubtfully: "I obviously followed your true intention to ask you, but why didn't you waver at all?"
Lu Chen completely pulled out the Gluttonous Soldier from the Bone Mountain, and then the Gluttonous Soldier turned into a bloody stream of light and slowly entered the elixir at Lu Chen's Dantian.
During this process, Lu Chen calmly replied: "Don't judge people's minds based on speculation. If one day comes, I believe that Master will also support my decision, just like he is doing now."
The inner demon was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something, and suddenly said: "So, although you are worried about the future, you will not be troubled by things that have not happened."
"But do you believe in your own judgment and people's hearts so much? You must know that people's hearts can change."
Lu Chen shook his head and said calmly: "Time will give the answer, neither you nor I... can."
"cut."
The inner demon curled his lips in disdain, then held the back of his head with both hands, and said angrily: "You are so crazy, I don't believe I have found your weakness, we... have a long time to come."
Boom!
With the inner demon's inner scene collapsing, Lu Chen found that he had returned to the ascension platform of Qingyun's main peak.
And on the elixir in his dantian, three elixir patterns suddenly appeared.
These three lines are intertwined and echo each other, just like a whole.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen knew that a quarter of his super-grade golden elixir had been completed.
He still needs to condense nine more elixir patterns, and the only thing left to his super-grade golden elixir is the final thunder tribulation baptism.
Without too much hesitation, Lu Chen once again entered the condensation of the next pill pattern.
The interior scene that appeared this time was the ‘Dragon Tomb Land’ that symbolized the true dragon sword intention.
In this land of dragon graves, there are countless huge dragon bones.
The largest keel among them was where Lu Chen was standing.
Because the entire place of Dragon Tomb is built on a huge dragon bone.
Similar to the first interior scene, the first trouble Lu Chen encountered in this True Dragon Sword Intent interior scene was the attack of some bone dragons.
But these bone dragons were just superficial and did not cause much trouble to Lu Chen.
Soon, Lu Chen came to a black long sword.
But this time, the person appearing next to the black-gold sword was a real person... Chen Fugui.
"Xiao Lu, this dragon-slaying sword is a rare thing in the world. Your teacher, I have never encountered such a good sword in my life. How about you give it to me?"
Chen Fugui rubbed his hands and vividly interpreted the "greed" of a richest man's son.
Unexpectedly, Lu Chen's breakthrough speed this time was actually faster than before in the bloody killing scene.
He ignored the request of the 'inner demon' and directly placed his hand on the pale golden royal dragon sword.
"Huh? Why are you faster this time than last time? Is it because I don't act like you?"
Lu Chen drew out the Royal Dragon Sword and nodded: "You don't understand Teacher Chen, and you can't act out what he is really greedy for, so it's full of flaws."
"ah?"
The inner demon looked unconvinced, and then said: "Where is the performance? I obviously followed his character and did something that would most likely hinder you."
"If you ask me, it's not that I don't act the same at all, but the 'greed' in your bones that prevents you from giving the treasure you got to anyone."
"This is your problem, not mine."
In response, Lu Chen, who had completely drawn out the Dragon Sword of Royal Power, said without changing his expression: "The word greed is essentially a person's pursuit."
"Some people seek wealth, while others seek fame. Although Teacher Chen seems to be full of commercialism, what he is greedy for is definitely beyond what most people can imagine."
"Huh? Why do you say that? Do you have any evidence?"
This time, Lu Chen rarely used a serious expression to explain to his inner demon: "Small greed is for wealth, moderate greed is for power, and huge greed is for wishes."
"I don't think a person who would put life and death at risk and would rather die to protect his students would rob his own students of their treasures."
"Although his contribution to me and even to others is not free, what he is greedy for is not something specific, but a possibility that exists in us."
"He wanted me to go higher, the higher the better."
"Because only in this way can he see the scenery that he himself cannot see."
"That's what he's really greedy for."
"Leverage others' eyes to see the scenery high in the sky."
"What he is really greedy for is actually the wish in his heart. He puts everything on the line, betting that someone can help him achieve his wish."
"Before that, he can pay all costs, including his own life."
"So...you don't understand him."
Hearing this, the inner demon was immediately stunned, as if he did not expect that Lu Chen would view Chen Fugui in this way.
Although he had the intention to refute, it could be seen from the way he was frowning and thinking.
He actually agreed with Lu Chen's statement.
After all, when the Black Lotus Cult attacked Luocheng No. 1 Middle School, Chen Fugui, the son of the richest man who should have been greedy for sex and afraid of death, actually walked out of the campus and tried his best to do what he could.
This move was not only to protect the students, but also to protect the hope he placed on the students.
He was betting that some of these students would reach a height that he could not reach in the future.
Then they would come back and tell him what the scenery he saw from that place was like.
Thinking of this, the inner demon dispersed his disguise in a very unlucky way, and said dissatisfiedly: "How could someone bet everything for a hope? Can he be the son of the richest man? Can he do business!"
"No, no, I don't believe you are really impeccable. You must have weaknesses, but I haven't found them yet."
Having said that, in the next two inner scenes of the inner demon, the inner demon was frustrated to find that Lu Chen's heart was like iron, impervious to oil and salt, and leak-proof.
In the third inner scene of the inner demon, he used "color" to seduce Lu Chen.
But Lu Chen not only did not stop, but also criticized him for being superficial and not understanding what the real "color" is.
Flesh is just an appearance, and the color that can fill the other person's heart is the real color of human nature.
The inner demon who only knows how to seduce with appearance is just the lowest method of seduction.
In the last inner scene of the inner demon, the other party directly used a big move.
This time, he came to hinder Lu Chen with "anger".
He tried every means to anger Lu Chen.
Including but not limited to killing and humiliating the people he cares about.
But to the surprise of the inner demon, Lu Chen was still calm about it.
Because he said frankly that if such a situation really happened, anger would not solve any problems, but would only make things worse.
This was the absolute calmness he gained from the experience of countless copies of death.
At this point, the inner demon gave up completely.
Invincible, this guy's character is so invincible that he can't find any weaknesses at all.
Because no matter which negative emotion it is, Lu Chen seems to have thought about it in advance and come up with a countermeasure based on it.
This guy even imagined and responded to the negative emotions in his heart.
He said he really had no other options.
It might not be appropriate to say that Lu Chen had a heart of stone, but it was no exaggeration to say that he had a heart of iron.
And just after Lu Chen had gone through four inner scenes of the inner demon, the pattern of the elixir in his body had completely reached the twelfth pattern.
In an instant, the huge vortex hovering above Lu Chen's head suddenly began to descend.
This was a sign that the thunder tribulation had sensed that Lu Chen's elixir was ready and was about to send down the thunder for baptism.
Lu Chen looked at the thunder tribulation scene that covered the nine stars and was like the end of the world. His expression was still very calm, without any fear.
And the corresponding to this heart was the aura that originally only appeared in the inner scene of the inner demon, but now it was shining through his body.
The light was not dazzling, but it was the only light in the dark world at this time.
This light rushed into the thunderstorm vortex above Lu Chen's head, and it seemed to be able to penetrate the vortex and shine on the sun, moon and stars outside the clouds.
Thousands of miles of thunderclouds cover the nine stars, and the spiritual light of Wuhuo shoots the sun and rainbow... nothing more than that.
Such a terrifying spiritual light shocked Qing Yi and others who were watching.
You should know that Lu Chen's cultivation is fast, and he can be described as having extraordinary talents and encounters.
But this light of mind is difficult to explain.
How did a person who has only cultivated for less than ten years temper such a mind?
Is there really a natural immortal who knows everything at birth?
