Chapter 683: The Decline of the Soul Is Not Easy
——Ha, there is another master in this book, thank you Aurora Soul Shadow friends for the tip. There is also the fraudster behind the scenes, Jenome’s constant support.

Shen Chenxi followed Qinglang into the Penglai sect's mountain gate, and looked at the beautiful Seven Peaks and Twenty-eight Mountains, Penglai disciples coming and going who were happy or sad, and the leisurely birds and immortal beasts. The atmosphere was harmonious and peaceful, and the surroundings of the Western Wilderness The deepest darkness, terror and desolation were in sharp contrast, and I couldn't help but be touched in my heart. I was born as a casual cultivator, and I couldn't be restrained. Although I had many friends, even if I became a primordial spirit or a heavenly being, I had only given guidance to a few juniors, and had never Accepting a disciple, let alone establishing a sect.
"Perhaps after settling this grudge, it's time to pass on the Taoism, so that we can go to that place to search for the back part of the "Treasure Sutra" without worries." Shen Chenxi's thoughts were up and down, and he walked leisurely with his hands behind his back.
When they arrived at Tianji Peak, under the guidance of Qing Lang, Shen Chenxi saw a simple, quiet but not gorgeous cave. He smiled slightly and said, "Your master's cave is a bit incompatible with his status."
"My master once said something once in a while, if the mountain is not high, it will be famous if it has immortals." Because of his master's advanced cultivation, even facing Shen Chenxi, the great master of two calamities, Qing Lang was not as trembling as he was when he first met the heavenly being. , reserved and atrophied.
As Shen Chenxi stepped into the cave, he nodded and said, "Yes, even if Shen builds a thatched cottage, it can become a fairyland that the whole world worships."
"I have been waiting for you for a long time, my dear fellow Taoist." Shi Xuan leisurely said with a smile as he cupped his hands.
When Shen Chenxi saw that in addition to Shi Xuan in the cave hall, there was a beautiful woman in plain white Taoist robes with an unpredictable aura, her heart moved and she saluted, "Shen has met Taoist friend Shi and Taoist friend Han Jing."
Since he was going to Yu Yutian to practice immortality, how could Shen Chenxi not do some homework to collect information? After Shenxiao Palace left Shenxiao Palace more than 4,000 years ago and there was no news, this Yuangui Xuan Ice Mirror was Yu Yutian's face. The person with the highest level of cultivation is the one who is capable of three tribulations.
Ao Gu brought tea and exited the hall together with Qing Lang. Shi Xuan exchanged a few pleasantries with Shen Chenxi who was sitting down, and then went straight to the topic: "Has Fellow Daoist Shen's calamity attack been raised to the seventh level?"
Shen Chenxi nodded: "Fellow Taoist Shi, do you really want to overcome the tribulation in advance?" After he came out from the deepest part of the Western Wilderness, he had already heard about the killing path being branded as the Penglai sect, and he had a somewhat clear idea of Shi Xuan's thoughts.
"Naturally." Shi Xuan smiled and nodded.
There is no way to rely on the backlash of the oath of karma to prevent premature catastrophe, because the result of the oath of karma must be bad, otherwise those monks who cannot break through the barrier will just find something to make an oath, "If it is violated, then I will break through." "To the realm of heaven and man", and the calamity comes early and it is difficult to distinguish the result. It is a good thing for some people and a bad thing for others. This is the result of the oath. The oath of cause and effect cannot be established unless it becomes "If violated, The calamity of decline will come early, and the body will die and the path will disappear."
Shen Chenxi sighed softly: "We are all the authentic souls of the Tao sect. Among the five declines of heaven and man, the decline of the soul is the simplest. If you, Taoist friend Shi, go out and work hard until the decline naturally comes, with your cultivation, when It’s 80% to 90% sure to get through it, which is much better than taking the risk now.”
As for Shi Xuan, who had to survive the third decline of heaven and man in more than 1,100 years, Shen Chenxi did not find it strange. He had survived the second decline of heaven and man in eighty-nine years! In the chaos and wilderness, there must be adventures, like a dream that lasts for a thousand years, or an instant that lasts for a thousand years. It is impossible to say that Shi Xuan has actually been wandering in the second tribulation for two or three thousand years, but he has not tempered enough.
"How can you do something when you are extremely sure of everything? Otherwise, when you are really 80 to 90% sure, but you die sadly at the hands of the killing Dao, that would be unjust." Shi Xuan said these words with emotion, but he thought of Lang. Xia Zhenjun, "Moreover, the next two tribulations of decline are becoming more and more difficult, especially the fifth decline of gods and humans, which is illusory. If the Taoist heart is not cultivated enough and cannot awaken, even if there are secret treasures and secret techniques, the grasp is less than 10%. It’s true that the closer you get to the road, the harder it will be.”
Of course, Shi Xuan was still 70% sure of the decline of his soul, because he had the gourd of clear energy to transform into gods, a secret treasure for transcending tribulations, but Shen Chenxi didn't know this. It is difficult for the outside world to predict what happened in the chaotic primitive world. It is completely normal for Shi Jingren and Peng Ziqian to fall into the mouths of alien species in the chaotic primitive world, or at the hands of the silenced Heavenly Monarch.
Shen Chenxi saw that Shi Xuan was very determined and admired his courage to overcome the disaster in advance, so he nodded and said: "Fellow Taoist Shi, are you ready?"
Seeing Shi Xuan indicating that he could take action, Shen Chenxi's eyes emitted a foot-long bright light, forming a starry chessboard in front of him. The black and white chess pieces on it continued to evolve, and in an instant, a calamity was formed, which expanded suddenly. , shrouded towards Shi Xuan.
Shi Xuan was in a peaceful mood. When the chessboard of ten thousand tribulations fell behind Yuan Shen, he immediately felt that the soul that was placed on the avenue was suddenly pulled down by a strange and inexplicable force. The backlash of the avenue came suddenly, hitting the Yuan Shen directly. Above, it begins to corrode the soul.
It corroded less than half of Shi Xuan's Yuan Shen in an instant. Only one eye and half a mouth remained on his face, and the rest was a rotten and ferocious mess. However, because it was the Yuan Shen, no flesh and bones appeared, only some dark light. Flashing.
When he felt the backlash of the Great Dao coming down smoothly, Han Jing Tianjun raised his hand and moved himself and Shen Chenxi to another palace, and opened the restriction of the hall where Shi Xuan was, isolating the inside and the outside. After all, when fighting against the initial fierce backlash of the decline of the soul, the soul of each True Lord will be revealed, exposing the sect's skills, and outsiders are not allowed to watch. This is one of the reasons why Shi Xuan asked Han Jing Tianjun to come and protect him.
…………
Faced with the surging power of the Great Dao that corroded the soul in an instant, Shi Xuan was not in a hurry. Relying on the super control of the soul, he transformed part of the soul near the corrosive force into a dark and chaotic hole bit by bit, taking the other side of the Yin-Yang Mixed Hole Divine Light to turn all things into chaos!
When the soul is weak, because the backlash force directly attacks the soul, it can be resisted by its own immortal arts, but in fact, the first wave of fierce backlash corrodes the immortal art inscriptions on the soul, and it cannot be used at all. It can only display its own fundamental skills, that is, the magic light that constitutes the soul. For "Shenxiao Zhenfa", it is the Shenxiao Tianlei Divine Light, and for "Baolu", it is naturally the Yin-Yang Mixed Hole Divine Light.
Countless tiny deep mixed holes tightly wrapped the intact part of Shi Xuan's soul. As soon as the backlash force touched them, it turned into chaotic air and dissipated.
But this wave of the backlash force of the avenue was extremely powerful, but in an instant, these small mixed holes only transformed part of the chaotic air and then shattered one by one.
Shi Xuan seized this opportunity to visualize the intact soul as a round of Yin-Yang fish, and rotated rapidly, evolving a nearly real dark mixed hole. The Yin-Yang Mixed Hole Divine Light is fully powered!
Under the pressure of the backlash, the chaotic hole shrank rapidly, and the chaotic energy that escaped gradually filled the hall, making it dark.
When the chaotic hole transformed by Shi Xuan's entire intact soul was corroded to the size of a head by the backlash, the speed of shrinkage gradually slowed down, getting slower and slower.
"Huh, I almost used the Qingqi Huashen Gourd. It turns out that I haven't sharpened it enough, and the control power is a little bit worse." Shi Xuan's palm-sized chaotic hole soul saw that the backlash power and the power of the return of all things to chaos were finally balanced, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and finally survived the first wave of fierce attacks.
"Baolu" only has the refining methods of a few secret treasures in Tianren Sanxu, and does not provide secret techniques. It seems that if you practice according to the strict requirements of "Baolu" on self-control, Tianren Sanxu does not need secret techniques or secret treasures at all.
The authentic Taoist exercises all emphasize self-control, but there are very few as strict and perverted as "Baolu", but each has its own strengths. In the same realm, unless there is another adventure, few cultivators can compare with Shi Xuan in the control of the soul.
Seeing that the third decline of the heavenly man has stabilized, Shi Xuan gradually eliminated the backlash force and restored the soul.
After a long time, Shi Xuan turned into a human form again, his appearance was rotten, and under the cover of the backlash force of the avenue, it was a dark and deep chaotic cave. The two were deadlocked, and the chaotic air in the hall was basically dissipated.
Qingsuo and Ziying jumped out of Shi Xuan's soul, laughing and saying: "Congratulations, master, you have taken a solid step."
In the past sixty years, Ziying, who had accumulated for a long time, passed the second decline of the heavenly man and returned to the previous realm, but if he wants to go further, it will take hundreds of thousands of years, or even tens of millions of years. In the future, it and Qingsuo will take turns to guard the sect.
"Okay, go open the ban, and I have to thank you, sir." Shi Xuan smiled and waved his hand. After enduring the initial fierce backlash, he was covered by the power of the Great Dao, so he was not afraid of being discovered by others.
When he came to another palace, Shen Chenxi saw Shi Xuan's appearance and felt a little scared. Then he shook his head and smiled: "Fellow Daoist Shi, if you go out like this, it will give people nightmares." His face was rotten and his facial features were incomplete.
"I just hope that the Jindan disciples who come to me for guidance will not be scared." Shi Xuan didn't mind it at all. He joked and thanked Shen Chenxi.
Shen Chenxi waved his hand: "You and I have cleared the cause and effect, so why thank you. Hey, the Taixu Dharma Assembly that year is still vivid in my mind. Fellow Daoist Shi, you left the other one-tribulation heavenly monarchs behind by one realm. Hey, I wonder what the name of the cave heaven opened by your Penglai Sect in the future will be."
Seeing that Shi Xuan could still come out to thank him, Shen Chenxi felt that he had at least a 50% chance of successfully surviving the tribulation.
Then he joked, "I really have no face to stand here, so I'll take my leave." It's hard to see that Shen Chenxi, who is always ruthless, has such a side.
Shi Xuan's family is in a period of decline, which is quite inconvenient, so he didn't try to keep him.
Shen Chenxi wanted to say something before leaving, but he didn't say anything in the end, as if he felt that his friendship with Shi Xuan was still too shallow.
…………
Hua Qianluo followed the instructions of the head of the sect and came to the cave of Shi Zushi on Tianji Peak. She was a little worried. Because she was traveling outside, she missed Shi Zushi's lecture sixty-one years ago, so she had never seen this second-tribulation heavenly monarch of our sect. Now that she has achieved the upper-grade golden elixir and returned, according to the rules of the sect, she must come to pay homage to Shi Zushi.
"He shouldn't be able to find the secret treasure on me, right? This illusion magic weapon that I got by chance, which was promoted from the time and space gate of the small world, is rumored to be extremely precious among magic weapons, even rarer than ordinary celestial treasures."
