Chapter 528: A Different World (Third Update, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket)
Mentioning the old stories of the Conferred Gods, Qu Jiuniang, wearing the "Bixia Yuanjun" mask, spoke in a slightly heavy tone: "The current Conferred Gods world is full of legends of immortals, both in the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect. From time to time, there are legends of someone meeting an immortal and being given a rare treasure or Taoist magic, but no matter how we pursue, we can't find the real immortals. Because of this, Tianzun has never dared to act recklessly."
"The closest times to success were when Tianzun and others discovered the Biyou Palace, and later found the real place where Yun Zhongzi sat and passed away, but there were no immortal corpses inside, only last words and items. Especially in the Biyou Palace, it was empty, without any trace of immortals, but the jade slips and skills were neatly placed, as if the owner just went out to play. If the elixir and other things had not lost their spirituality, I'm afraid Tianzun and others would not dare to move the Biyou Palace, worried that the immortals would come back for revenge."
Is this the real Biyou Palace? Meng Qi couldn't help but look up and look around. Where did Tongtian Jiaozhu go?
If he "comes back" one day, it would be a big joke!
"Where did Tianzun and others find the Biyou Palace?" Meng Qi asked.
Qu Jiuniang rolled her eyes at Meng Qi: "You haven't been to the Conferred God World yet, even if I tell you the place name, what's the point? It should be on Kunlun Mountain in the Han Dynasty."
Kunlun Mountain... For a moment, Meng Qi almost blurted out "Are you kidding me?"
Immediately, he restrained his emotions and frowned slightly. It was not overseas, so where did the Yuxu Palace go?
Suddenly, he tasted something wrong: "Han Dynasty?"
Wasn't it the Spring and Autumn Period five hundred years after the Conferred God? Where can I find the "Han"?
Qu Jiuniang did not notice Meng Qi's surprise: "According to the records of the historians of that world, after the Conferred God, the Zhou Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty divided the princes, but the world was in ruins, the four poles were separated, and only one in ten of the earth remained. Within a hundred years, the princes were powerful and the disputes were endless. It was difficult for the royal order to leave the Zhou land."
"Perhaps it was too chaotic because there were many princes and they attacked each other. The surnames were quickly merged into one. Many scholars and officials claimed that this was a long night of the collapse of rituals and music."
"Which princes are there?" Meng Qi was most concerned about whether he was familiar with them.
Qu Jiuniang subconsciously counted her fingers one by one: "There are Han, Qin, Chu, Tang, Ming, Yan, Zhao, Lu, Wu, Song and other major princes."
Sure enough, it was different... Meng Qi's eyelids twitched. Perhaps during the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, many princes who should have been conferred were affected and died, so the princes were different from what he knew, and the process of development and evolution was also different.
"These princes are either descendants of gods or immortals. They can swallow clouds and spit out mist, ride the wind and control swords, and possess various strange skills, and even some magic weapons..." At this point, Qu Jiuniang's tone became more serious, and she deliberately reminded, "Because many Taoist descendants and descendants of immortals are still alive, there are many secret treasures imitating the items of the gods, which are powerful or weird. You need to be extremely careful. This is by no means comparable to the secret treasures in our world. If you are not careful, you will be killed by the weak!"
"There was a 'Xuantan Zhenjun' in our Xianji. He provoked a Taoist sect and was killed by the other party with a secret treasure imitating the 'Nail Head Seven Arrow Book'. Tianzun couldn't find the enemy's trace even if he wanted to take revenge."
Meng Qi was dumbfounded. Isn't Xuantan Zhenjun Zhao Gongming? He took his title and was killed by a replica of the Nail Head Seven Arrow Book?
All I can say is that this is fate...
Qu Jiuniang thought Meng Qi was just shocked by the secret treasure, and warned him: "In addition to the secret treasure, they also have special skills that can also make people hard to defend. I once encountered an enemy who had just entered the outdoor scene. I beat him to a pulp at first, but suddenly he snorted and two white lights spurted out of his nostrils, which immediately captured my soul. If I hadn't had a companion at the time, I'm afraid I would have died on the spot."
The descendant of the two generals Heng and Ha... Meng Qi nodded thoughtfully.
After listening to Qu Jiuniang's introduction, Meng Qi had a general grasp of the world of Fengshen. Although the vassal states were different and some details were different, they seemed to be in the late Spring and Autumn Period. The rituals and music were broken, the saints did not come out, and the hundreds of schools of thought did not flourish...
…………
After leaving "Xianji", Meng Qi returned to the vast sea and arrived at Bomi again.
At this time, the red fog in Bo Mi was much thinner. Meng Qi estimated that in another ten or twenty years, the red fog without a source of water would completely dissipate, and the vicious criminals hiding in it would have to find a way to survive.
Meng Qi had no pity for them. He found a secret place outside Bo Mi, took out the Sun God Stone, the Earth Wu Earth and other natural treasures, recalled the contents of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art and the "Original Golden Chapter" exterior scene, and began to practice.
A trace of the Sun's True Fire rose from the Sun God Stone, red and hot, but Meng Qi took a light breath, and they fell into the tip of his nose, wrapped by the Eight-Nine True Qi, passed through the meridians, flowed into specific acupoints, and slowly merged with the Sun's virtual image produced by the internal and external confluence inside, making it more real.
Not long after, Meng Qi was surrounded by red light, and there were streams of fire drilling into his nostrils, and white gas was sprayed out, making the clouds and mist linger, like a god.
Below the fourth level of the external scene, cultivation is to inhale and exhale the heaven and earth primordial energy corresponding to one's own internal scene, condense the acupoints related to the Dharma, and thus materialize the Dharma.
The Dharma is the product of the combination of the internal scene, one's own soul, body and the power of heaven and earth when the heaven and earth are stimulated and the internal and external meet. It is the embodiment of one's own path, with specific acupoints as the root, the internal scene as the body, and the soul as the main body.
Different skills and paths lead to different specific acupoints and inner scenes, and different methods of cultivation. For example, the Seven-Star Demon Phase of the Seven-Star Evil God needs to be based on the inner scene, and the acupoints around the body are divided into seven groups. Each group is cultivated with the same method and the same kind of vital energy is inhaled and exhaled.
As the inhaled and exhaled heaven and earth vital energy condenses the acupoints, perfects the inner scene, and combines with the void, it will gradually solidify. When you pass the first level of the ladder, the Dharma phase is close to the substance and is directly displayed outside the body, which is one of the strongest means of the outer scene.
After this step, cultivate the Dharma phase, sense and get close to the corresponding Dharma principles of heaven and earth, let the two interweave and feedback the flesh, have various magical powers, and are top masters, until you pass the second level of the ladder, the Dharma phase and the Dharma principle are initially integrated, just like the substance, and become a master. After the third level of the ladder, the Dharma phase and the flesh are initially overlapped, the Dharma principle is added to the body, and every move has great power, with countless magical powers, and the world respects it as a grandmaster.
The division of the first three levels of the outer scene is marked by the acupoints of cultivation. Those who have more than half of them are in the second level, those who have completed the acupoints are in the third level, and those who have completely condensed the virtual image can cross the first level of the ladder.
Originally, the cultivation requirements could be met by directly swallowing and exhaling the corresponding vital energy of heaven and earth, but after the great changes in heaven and earth, the life span decreased and the vital energy was thin. Warriors often replaced the vital energy with corresponding heavenly materials and treasures to speed up the progress of cultivation.
Especially for those who can accommodate changes like Meng Qi, each acupoint is a change, and each "universe" needs to condense different heavenly and earthly vital energy. Without the help of heavenly materials and treasures, it may take a long time to complete the cultivation.
Because of the one-step ascension to heaven and the four disasters, Meng Qi's inner scene is close to the laws of heaven and earth. The true fire vital energy and other things will naturally blend into the virtual image when they enter, without too much condensation, and very quickly.
…………
Unknowingly, two months have passed, and there is a goose yellow figure outside Bo Mi.
As she was looking around, she suddenly heard a smiling voice: "This girl, I see that your forehead is like jade, and there is no bad karma. Good luck will come to you and you will have a breakthrough."
Jiang Zhiwei turned around in surprise and amusement, looking at Meng Qi in a green shirt: "Can you see that I have made a breakthrough?"
When did this guy become a fortune-telling Taoist priest?
After Meng Qi practiced the content about karma in the "Yuanshi Golden Seal", his "cause and effect" has become more and more perfect, close to being sublimated into a true appearance, and he can "see" the good or bad of some of the karma of others, but what he said just now is not "seeing" it.
He chuckled, "A hermit can tell with a little calculation."
After a pause, he chuckled, "The time you exchanged before is almost a year left, and there is a 'three-month' retreat, plus a single-player mission. Even if you don't have the style of Master Su who refines one level of heaven in a year, you should have condensed half of the acupoints and entered the second level of heaven. It's a very simple inference!"
Jiang Zhi smiled brightly and looked Meng Qi up and down, "Let me guess, you look radiant, you seem to have gained a lot, and you are not in a hurry, and you don't mention the matter of Wuyou Valley at all. Could it be that you have completed it?"
Cough, Meng Qi coughed and laughed dryly, "It's a coincidence, and we have met by chance. The next step will be taken after we step over the first level of the ladder. By the way, I got something from Zeluoju, which is the opening token of the 'Senluo Wanxiang Gate'. Why don't we go and explore it?"
"Okay." Jiang Zhi smiled and said, without any hesitation or doubt.
The two walked together, through the wind and sand, and headed for the Fish Sea.
On the way, Meng Qi roughly told the story of Wuyou Valley, but did not mention how he got the commission from the Ice Fairy, and Jiang Zhiwei tacitly did not ask.
Flying very fast, after a few days, the two arrived at the "Little Jiangdong" Yuhai and found the courtyard on Guangling Street.
"There is a dumb Nine-orifice master watching, and Zeluoju attaches great importance to this place..." Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei floated above the courtyard and merged into the darkness.
Jiang Zhiwei nodded and guessed: "The tomb of Wanxiang Immortal Venerable is said to be deep in the Great Snow Mountain. Senluo Wanxiang Gate may have something to do with him."
In Taoism, the immortal lord is below the heavenly lord.
Meng Qi did not know Wanxiang Immortal Venerable, his spirit spread like water, united with the heaven and earth, accommodating the small courtyard, and looking for the treasure house.
Not long after, he found the door to the secret room.
The two quietly flew into the wing room, stood in front of the secret room, and inserted An Guoxie's key on the opposite suitcase.
After twisting gently, the secret room slowly opened.
Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei entered cautiously, closing the secret room before walking down the steps.
At the end of the steps was another stone door, which Meng Qi opened with Zeluoju's key this time.
Behind the stone door was nothing, not like a treasure house at all. There was only a lonely door standing in the middle, with various patterns carved on it, carrying a vicissitudes of life and an old atmosphere, which looked very strange.
"Senluo Wanxiang Gate..." Meng Qi took out the token and stuck it on the door.
Because he didn't know what monster would appear after opening it, Jiang Zhiwei had already drawn the White Rainbow Piercing the Sun Sword.
A green light emerged from the token, enveloping the door that had not been "installed".
Meng Qi gently exerted force, and the door opened. There was a fire behind it, and the magma rolled.
It turned out to be the depths of the volcano!
It actually led to another place!
Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei looked at each other, communicated with each other, and stepped in slowly.
As soon as he entered, Meng Qi felt that the vitality of heaven and earth had become much thinner, as if he had arrived in another world!
The exit was on the stone wall at the edge of the magma. The two of them were suspended in the air, with their Qi protecting their bodies and resisting the scorching heat and the flames.
Suddenly, Jiang Zhiwei exclaimed softly: "There are traces of the Sun God Stone deep in the magma, but it has been dug away."
Dug away? Meng Qi immediately thought of the Sun God Stone in Zeluoju's hand!
"Go out and take a look first." Meng Qi whispered and flew out of the volcano.
Outside, the sun was shining brightly, and there were villages dotted in the distance. A flying bird flew across the mountain, its body was iron black, without any sign of life.
"Mechanical iron bird?" Jiang Zhiwei also saw it.
