Chapter 488 The Way of the Soul, Level 3 and Level 4 (Happy New Year)
After hearing this, Li Qing looked at Zhang Chong and said nothing.
Lu Qiong's move was naturally a calculation for all the cultivators who had come to the Lu family to seek the cultivation method, including the two of them.
But judging from their own experiences, this calculation did not harm them. On the contrary, it helped them go further on the road of cultivation.
Even if those cultivators who relied on it to achieve the third level but did not return the book would have some luck taken away, it was nothing compared to what they gained.
However, which cultivator would not feel resentful if they were forced to form a bond without negotiation?
Li Qing was naturally a little unhappy.
He looked at the huge turtle and the Sutra Cave on its back with a deep gaze, without saying a word.
Zhang Chong looked in the direction of the Sutra Cave, his eyes slightly fixed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Lu Cong also knew that what he had done was somewhat offensive, and he looked a little embarrassed. He looked at the Sutra Cave and prayed silently: "Brother, you must succeed in your plan..."
No matter what everyone on the scene thought, the spiritual energy in the Sutra Cave was further sublimated.
The spiritual energy originally rose in the air and turned into a canopy, covering the Turtle Mountain.
In the canopy, a figure appeared faintly, with loose hair and bare feet, wearing a black robe, golden armor and jade belt, holding a sword and glaring, stepping on a turtle and snake, and a round light on his head, which was very majestic.
But soon, the figure suddenly collapsed and turned into a book, turning the pages, with various heavenly books flashing, and every word was a pearl.
"Boom boom--"
A thunder exploded in the sky.
Then the endless thunderstorm submerged the Sutra Cave, like a torrent of waves, sweeping down.
The big turtle under the Sutra Cave let out a "wow" and curled up its head and limbs into its shell.
Only a thin and long tail was left touching the ground, and it used its strength to guide the scattered lightning on its body into the earth.
It is not difficult to see that although this big turtle was in the thunderstorm, it was not affected too much, which was very strange.
But the big turtle was not affected, but it did not mean that the people watching nearby were safe.
"Retreat quickly!" Li Qing shouted in a low voice, pulling Li Hu and the little guys back several miles.
Zhang Chong was also retreating.
He came alone, and there was no one who needed protection, so he sighed again and took Lu Cong and other Lu family leaders out.
Li Qing looked at the endless thunderstorm with a stern expression, feeling that its intensity far exceeded the scope of the Dan Jie calamity.
Although the power of a single thunderbolt was not as strong as when Chu Mu Zhenjun attacked the Yuanying, this endless posture looked more terrifying.
"Daoyou Lu Qiong, what path is this?" Li Qing muttered to himself.
Lu Cong, who was still in shock, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead: "At first, my brother wanted to follow the ancient path of specializing in one realm, and wanted to push the foundation of Tao to the extreme."
This point is known to all cultivators above the foundation building stage. Li Qing has also heard it: "But now it is obviously not a foundation phenomenon..."
Lu Cong sighed: "But later, he was inexplicably injured, his foundation was incomplete, and it was difficult to achieve the great way, so he found another way to the great way of Yuanshen..."
Zhang Chong was shocked and looked at the book submerged by thunder: "Is that the Yuanshen Dharma image he cultivated?"
Lu Cong spread his hands: "The real person thinks highly of me. I am just a Qi training cultivator, how can I understand these?"
Li Qing glanced at him lightly: "If this was said before today, I would believe it. But now, I doubt everything you say."
Lu Cong smiled bitterly helplessly.
So everyone stopped talking and turned their eyes to the thunder, watching the situation evolve.
In the sky, thunderstorms fell one after another.
The big turtle was always like a turtle, and there was not even a bit of blackening on its shell.
Only the walls of the Sutra Cave were blasted to pieces by thunder, and the bookshelves and various exercises on the bookshelves could be vaguely seen.
In the middle of the Sutra Cave, someone sat quietly, surrounded by mysterious light, and a treasure book was unfolded above his head, and countless heavenly book symbols flew out to resist the invasion of thunder.
Without Lu Cong's introduction, Li Qing knew that this person was the mysterious ancestor Lu Qiong!
At this time, the thunder in the sky was coming to an end.
Lu Qiong suddenly opened his eyes, and countless heavenly book symbols appeared and disappeared in his eyes.
He looked up at the sky and shouted, "Retreat!"
Then he saw an increasingly fiery spiritual power rising into the sky and merging into the canopy, like an umbrella holding up the sky, pushing the thunder out like rain.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the thunder, which was already at the end of its strength, disappeared.
Lu Qiong stood up from the cave and bowed to Li Qing and Zhang Chong through the damaged wall of the Sutra Cave.
"Hello, fellow Daoist Li and fellow Daoist Zhang. I was able to break through because of the fate of the two of you. I am really grateful."
There is no mistake in the poem, the content, the content, the book, the bar!
Li Qing and Zhang Chong both had smiles on their faces, without any resentment at all.
Li Qing said, "Brother Dao, you are too kind. Good deeds bring good results. This is the cycle of nature. We have achieved each other, so why should we thank you?"
Zhang Chong also said, "Exchanging Taoism and sharing what we have are the style of our generation. Brother Dao has such a broad mind, which is really admirable."
For a while, everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Lu Qiong smiled slightly, looking at the robes on his body that were struck by thunder: "Please wait for a moment, I will go to clean up and then talk about Taoism."
Li Qing smiled and said, "Brother Dao, go ahead. I will go back to the cave and sort out what I have today."
Zhang Chong also echoed a few words.
Lu Qiong stomped his feet suddenly, and the giant turtle under the Sutra Pavilion stretched out its head, and four big feet like stone pillars steadily supported its huge body.
"You lazy bastard, you just hide in your shell when you encounter trouble, what else can I expect from you?" Lu Qiong scolded softly.
The giant turtle was not annoyed, shaking its head and tail, carrying the Sutra Cave and heading to the back mountain.
It was such an amazing size, but it stepped on the ground without any vibration.
Li Qing could see clearly that every time the giant turtle landed on its four legs, there was a force of earth's magnetic field, which offset the aura of the ground veins of Guiyuan Mountain.
In this way, when it walked, it seemed to have no weight at all, almost floating on the ground.
Zhang Chong did not return to the cave where he stayed, but followed Li Qing directly.
He muttered: "Friend Li, the giant turtle just now, I'm afraid it has the strength of the late stage of Jindan?"
Li Qing frowned slightly: "Just judging from its spiritual power performance, it's about the same. But considering its huge size, I'm afraid it's three points stronger."
It's just that the third level and the fourth level are essentially different. Neither of them thought that the giant turtle had the strength of the Yuanying.
Zhang Chong asked again: "What about Brother Lu Qiong? Do you think he has reached the fourth level?"
Li Qing shook his head: "I am not at that level yet, so I can't see clearly. But based on my spiritual perception, he is at least three times more powerful than the big turtle."
The two of them looked very serious. What happened today was obviously beyond their expectations.
"However, since it is a good fate, maybe we can gain more today..." Zhang Chong's eyes flashed with a trace of yearning.
(Wish everyone a happy Little New Year in the North!) (End of this chapter)
