Chapter 1249 Preparations (3rd Update)
In the pure land of the gray stone temple, the strange vortex of the "origin of life and death" has disappeared, and everything has returned to normal. The bodhi tree is green, the spiritual spring is surging, the Udumbara flowers are blooming, and it is quiet and peaceful.
Suddenly, a flash of blood, dark red and almost black, a huge figure slowly outlined, it was the Asura ancestor who escaped from the "origin of life and death".
Six of his nine heads with anger, killing, lust and destruction disappeared, and only more than 300 of his thousand eyes remained. Nearly half of them were empty and lifeless, flowing with bloody black pus, as if sobbing, and the 999 arms that bloomed like petals around him had become sparse, and the 24 giant legs covered with scales were uneven. Just the appearance was extremely miserable. With his realm and the ability of the flesh and blood of the half-god and half-demon body, there was no sign of recovery, as if the lost part was lost forever.
"Zhenwu has reached this point..." The Asura ancestor couldn't help but sigh.
Although the bonus of the Life and Death Origin to himself was not as good as Jiuyou's, he was still surprised that he could not block even Zhenwu's sword. It was like squatting in the mountains to practice martial arts for a decade, and finally mastered martial arts. When he tried to step into the secular world and call the wind and rain, he found that he could not block the expected enemy's casual attack.
The Asura Ancestor gathered his wounds, maintained a miserable appearance, hid in the Pure Land, and waited quietly. After a long time, he confirmed that he was the only one who survived!
"It doesn't matter if the injury is serious, it's good to be alive!" The Asura Ancestor adjusted his emotions and left this Pure Land.
Such a serious injury may never be healed, and he will not be able to reproduce the tyranny of the ancient times, but it is better than having to seal his body and exerting only one tenth of his strength after his lifespan is exhausted. At least after realizing the way of life and death, he will benefit a lot, and his lifespan will also become full. By then, he will be able to reach a level of 70% or 80%. Moreover, if there is a chance in the future, he may be able to recover from the injury, such as entering the "Origin of Life and Death" again and using the "Intention of Life" to heal his wounds!
Leaving the Pure Land and returning to the gray stone temple, he waved his hand and extinguished the green lamp. A trace of emotion suddenly flashed through his mind:
"That fellow Taoist only lost an incarnation of Huangquan, which is much better than me."
It is not easy to refine an incarnation that can maintain contact and control after entering the Pure Land and the "Origin of Life and Death" of the Buddha!
…………
In the real world, in the Yuxu Palace of Kunlun Mountain.
As the distracted self dissipated, Meng Qi, who was sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed, suddenly opened his eyes, letting the darkness in the room dissipate and return to brightness.
At the same time, he stretched out his hands, connecting the mysterious seals, and the multiple embryonic forms in his body followed the operation, gradually differentiating into yin and yang, and bursting out a black and white light in the palm of his hand.
The light condensed, changed with the seal, twisted and stretched into a black and white ancient mirror, which was the embodiment of the "Yin Yang Seal" in the Nine Seals of Yuanshi!
After tempering the Yellow Springs skeleton in the "Origin of Life and Death" and understanding the fur of the way of life and death, Meng Qi certainly had to race against time to turn what he had gained into gains and integrate it into his own martial arts supernatural powers. The "Yin Yang Seal" is a seal that includes concepts such as life and death, hardness and softness. This can be seen from the fact that Chi Jingzi's "Yin Yang Mirror" reflects the dead on one side and the living on the other.
The black and white ancient mirror was not stable. Under the stimulation of Meng Qi's seal changes and the continuous black and white rainbow light, both the front and the back were wriggling, and strange symbols were created one after another, gradually condensing into blurred Dao patterns.
These Dao patterns fell one by one, as if they had turned into the inscription patterns of the ancient mirror, setting off the mirror surface more profound.
At the end, Meng Qi put his palms together and pressed all the black and white rainbow light and the ancient mirror together!
His hands loosened, and the ancient mirror flew out, seemingly real and unreal. One side was holy and transparent, pure and white, reflecting the "meaning of life", and the other side was dark and dark, silent and cold, shining into the "marrow of death". It was different from Chi Jingzi's "Yin Yang Mirror", but it was slightly less mysterious.
The ancient mirror dissipated and returned to the Dharma body. Meng Qi's expression became leisurely and quite contented.
Leaving the "Wheel of Life and Death of All Heavens" at the "Origin of Life and Death" was his last clever move. If the Great Emperor Zhenwu fully awakens, there will be hope on the other side, and he will definitely look down on it and not be afraid of it being taken away. On the one hand, the "Wheel of Life and Death of All Heavens" can record the changes around it, so that he can get a glimpse of the secrets of Zhenwu when he gets it again. On the other hand, what happened there cannot even be seen directly by the big figures on the other side, so it is not a problem to hide it from the Great Emperor Fengdu. Hiding the "Wheel of Life and Death of All Heavens" there can be used as a backup. If the other party has bad intentions, it will come in handy at a critical moment.
The Great Emperor Zhenwu, who is in a strange state and can take action, and he knows about this in advance, has the "Wheel of Life and Death of All Heavens" hidden in the abstract meaning of the "Origin of Life and Death". Meng Qi has a better chance of winning the matter of the Great Emperor Fengdu. Even if his strength is not as good as the other party, he still has a certain chance of winning. No matter how strong he is, can he be stronger than the Great Emperor Zhenwu who can slash the sword of shocking the world? Can you guard against the "Wheel of Life and Death of All Heavens" that can trigger the "Origin Resonance" to a limited extent?
Of course, the great emperor Fengdu has great magical powers and unfathomable strength. Meng Qi dare not underestimate him at all. He can only make as much preparation as possible to increase his hopes.
At the same time, leaving the "Wheel of Life and Death of All Heavens" in the "Origin" is equivalent to establishing an indestructible signpost for the deity. It is no longer necessary to turn the Yellow Spring upside down to open the "Origin". As long as the power is sufficient, it can be directly stimulated by relying on the "Cause of All Fruits" to reproduce the entrance vortex. When Xiao Sang finished his retreat, he must have refined the innate virtue. Legend has it that there is hope. In order to prevent the Golden Emperor from noticing and hiding this matter, just in case, there is no more suitable choice than self-certification in the "Origin of Life and Death"!
Why did he refine a treasure wheel instead of the sword that he lacked, because the material for refining the peerless thing itself has a certain spirituality, and there are several forms that are most suitable for it. He can only choose one of them. The true meaning of the great way is also the same, just like the tripod, ruler, mirror, bell and other utensils have certain connotations and carry the corresponding Tao rhyme. It is best not to use them indiscriminately. If you have to create the desired form, you need a strong control power, which he obviously did not have at that time.
Second, the "Wheel of Life and Death in the Heavens" is not refined for his own battle. In addition to guarding against the Emperor of Fengdu, it is more for Master Xuanbei!
Without the penetration of "Yellow Spring" and the blessing of the Tao of Life and Death, his Ksitigarbha Pure Land could not suddenly expand into the underworld, allowing him to glimpse the secret of the other side. Therefore, leaving the "Wheel of Life and Death in the Heavens" at the origin is also to conceal the truth and wait for the opportunity to give the master the secret.
As an arhat who has attained the golden body of Ksitigarbha in Buddhism, it is obviously more suitable for him to hold a treasure wheel than a sword, which is closer to the meaning of compassion and mercy, and to cross all hell.
With a slight change of mind, Meng Qi pushed the matter into the depths of his heart, seemingly forgetting it, so as not to be discovered.
At this time, He Mu and Fang Huayin had both returned to the mountain, each with their own progress, and were about to call them over to talk and talk about martial arts, when suddenly his heart moved, and his eyes looked through the roof and into the sky.
I saw a strange phenomenon, the shadow of the fairyland emerged, the nine layers of heaven were clearly layered, and the source was exactly the direction of Xijian Pavilion.
"Senior Su has finally taken this step." Meng Qi sighed with joy.
He had originally expected to prove his legend faster than himself, but he even fell behind the funny brother.
After the vision of "the fairyland across the sky", stars appeared in the sky, glittering and dense, but only occupying part of the night. Then a brilliant and sharp sword light rose from the west, connecting them all and merging into a brilliant Milky Way. The Milky Way's "water waves" rippled, giving a sense of illusion, like a long river of time flowing quietly.
"The vision of 'the sword piercing the galaxy'... Senior Su has not only gained some understanding of the Haotian Mirror, but also the Donghuang Bell..." Meng Qi whispered to himself, and waited until the "stars shining into the sea" appeared and disappeared like free money, before calling He Mu and Fang Huayin.
Facing the two respectful disciples, Meng Qi smiled and said:
"He Mu, I have written a congratulatory letter. Please send it to Xijian Pavilion for me. I wish Senior Su to prove his uniqueness."
As he spoke, the purple air in his hand turned, and the black and white clouds condensed into a congratulatory letter, with mythical beasts and fairy birds intertwined on it, with a magnificent atmosphere.
"Disciple will obey Master's orders." He Mu took it curiously, but he could not see what was so magical about this congratulatory message.
Looking at Fang Huayin, Meng Qi nodded and said:
"Yu Banshan and Qi Jinxiu have gained a lot from their travels, and they have lived up to Yuxu's reputation. You let them return and officially join the sect."
Now that Senior Brother Guangcheng and Senior Sister Wenshu are still alive, he can only bury the bad taste of accepting twelve disciples and giving them the names of the Twelve Golden Immortals of Yuxu in his heart...
Watching He Mu and Fang Huayin leave, Meng Qi flicked the back of his left hand with his right index finger, thinking about the next practice.
Projecting the universe of all worlds until it can be generated by itself is a slow and steady process. There is no shortcut, and it is difficult to save too much time. The matter of the Emperor of Fengdu may not take long...
Well, the special universe leading to the ancient well in Yuxu Palace hides the secret of the other side. I wonder if it can help.
Anyway, I won't provoke the "Yuanshi Projection" with independent consciousness...
