Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 335 Demonic Tomb, Seventh Order Spirit Inheritance

In the southeast direction of Tongxuan Realm, there is a huge underground pit with blazing fire and dense underground tunnels. The Wuliang Earth Fire Demon Cave, one of the sixteen evil sects in the world, was established here.

At the very core of the Infinite Earth Fire Demon Cave, the underground fire was blazing, magma was like a river, heat waves were rolling, burning gold and melting bones. A large amount of blazing flames were like ghosts in purgatory, emitting a dark red light that illuminated the surrounding darkness.

Amid the billowing smoke, the firelight illuminated an ancient and huge wheel of reincarnation, which was quietly cast on the floating island of the magma pool, and seemed to carry the secrets of ancient times.

On the wheel of reincarnation, there is a middle-aged Taoist priest in red clothes sitting cross-legged on the platform with his body straight and his hands clasped in seals. His face is calm and his eyes are closed, as if he is immersed in deep meditation.

"Ming!"

At this moment, a crisp cry was heard from the distant sky, and a dazzling light suddenly burst out from between the brows of the Taoist priest in red.

The light was like a phoenix flapping its wings about to fly, echoing the sound of the phoenix outside.

At the same time, outside the Infinite Fire Demon Cave.

There was a ball of dark red flame dancing in the sky. Looking closely, it turned out to be an iron mirror that seemed to be burning with flames.

"Shura Fire God Mirror, my husband's life-saving magic weapon has flown back!"

Soon, a female cultivator in red appeared near the Great Wheel of Samsara. She was wearing a Phoenix robe of the Earth Fire God and a crown of Vermilion Bird with spread wings on her head. Her skin was as white as snow and her expression was majestic.

At this moment, he chanted a spell to release the restriction of the formation. The iron mirror that seemed to be burning with flames flew down and instantly rushed into the body of the middle-aged Taoist priest on the Great Wheel of Samsara.

The surrounding magma suddenly burned violently, and the heat waves were suffocating.

Upon seeing this, the female cultivator in red immediately shook the copper bell as a magic tool, stepped into the Gang Step, closed her eyes, and muttered something at the same time, with red magic light spreading around her body.

This woman is the Queen of Fire Spirit God and the master of the Fire Demon Cave in Wuliang Earth. She was first a disciple of Fire Spirit God and later became his wife. However, her Taoism and magical powers are even greater than her husband's. She just likes a quiet life and seldom goes out.

On the great wheel of reincarnation, the Taoist priest in red sat cross-legged with a solemn expression and a dignified look on his face.

As the Fire Spirit Queen continued to chant incantations and cast spells, the aura of the Taoist in red became stronger and stronger, and his life-saving magic weapon, the Shura Fire God Mirror, emitted a dazzling red light, making his figure gradually as dazzling as the scorching sun.

Suddenly, the Taoist's body shook, and a red light flew out from the wheel of reincarnation. After spinning several times in the air, it instantly turned into a red stream of light and flew into the body of the middle-aged Taoist.

The middle-aged Taoist's eyes suddenly opened, with mysterious magic symbols flashing in them. He stood up, his whole body surrounded by fiery red flames, like a fire god descending to the earth.

"call."

A delighted smile appeared on the face of the Fire Spirit Queen. Although the couple had been practicing and deducing this secret technique for many years, it was only after they had successively advanced to the Nascent Soul stage that it could be considered a true success.

The surrounding underground fire seemed to sense the Taoist's powerful aura and became more violent, with lava rolling and pillars of fire shooting into the sky.

However, the Taoist's expression remained unchanged. He changed the hand seals on his hands and emitted a powerful suction force, absorbing the surrounding earth fire and converting it into his own magic power.

“Huh! The ancient corpse monster in Tianhai Cave is really terrifying. I almost couldn’t come back.”

At this moment, the Fire Spirit God, who had come back to life from the dead, turned around and smiled at the Queen of Gods. The two figures walking side by side gradually disappeared into the depths of the sea of ​​fire.

This devil's cave in Tongxuan Realm has once again returned to its former tranquility, with only the sound of burning fire remaining.

"The third brother died a pitiful death. Madam will tell the General Affairs Office to treat his relatives well. If I find out about any deductions, I will not forgive them."

"This is natural, my husband. How is the effect of the Great Samsara Magic? Can you still fully exert your magical power?" The Fire Spirit Queen studied ancient texts and created a Great Samsara Magic, which can send the soul of a cultivator into the body of another person, and it does not count as possession of another person's body.

This magic was originally intended by the couple to be used to take over other people's bodies and achieve immortality before the Yuanying Avenue was opened up.

Later, the Yuanying Avenue was opened up by Taoist Huang Longzi from the Palace of Incarnation of All Beasts, one of the four major demon sects. The couple successively cultivated Yuanying, and their vision and supernatural powers were different. They also made improvements to this magic, and gradually it has the power it has today.

"The third brother has been practicing Taoism under me since he was young. His Taoism is the same as ours. My Yuanshen and Shura Fire God Mirror are attached to him, and he can almost exert the eighth to ninth level of magical powers. However, he seemed to be discovered by the ancient corpse demon that killed me at the last moment. If it hadn't had other opponents, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been so easy for me to escape and return."

"Is that Tianhai Cave really so terrifying?" asked the Fire Spirit Queen in surprise.

"It's even more terrifying than we expected. This place is actually the place where the alien human cultivators and the alien demon gods fought a decisive battle. The two people from the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce wanted to take this opportunity to search for the Taoism of the Yuanshen Patriarch.

Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. "

Although he had escaped from danger, the Fire Spirit Lord still felt a little terrified when he thought of the terrifying ancient corpse demon. In his opinion, except for himself who managed to escape with the help of his wife's Great Reincarnation Method, the remaining few people in the Tianhai Cave Heaven would all die under the claws of the ancient corpse demon.

Now that he has mastered this piece of information and has the help of his wife's Great Reincarnation Method, he will have the opportunity to inherit the soul through repeated explorations.

As for the disciples who died because of this, since it concerns the path of himself and his wife, Lord Fire Spirit certainly would not care.

At the same time, deep underground in Tianhai Cave.

Lu Cheng was in a small space, surrounded by spirit stones, and practicing magic with both hands, recovering from his internal and external injuries at a very fast speed.

The wounds and bloodstains on his body closed up quickly, as if time had been sped up a thousand times. Even the blood seemed to have its own spirit, turning into strands of blood and shrinking inward.

“The true blood of the ancient fire dragon has been dispersed. During this period of time, I can no longer transform into a dragon. Fortunately, there is still some dispersed blood in my body. I will have time to condense it again in the future.

That corpse demon is really scary. If it only chased me, I would not be sure that I could escape safely from its claws."

Stretch your palms in front of you and then slowly make fists.

After cultivating the fifth level of the Great Five Elements True Spirit Transformation Method, one's spiritual consciousness, magic power, and qi and blood in the body are constantly improving and growing.

Just now, this power turned into repair, and now it began to grow its origin. That is why Lu Cheng has not been in a hurry to cultivate his magic power and impact the Nascent Soul realm in recent years.

Today, under the claws of the ancient corpse demon in the Tianhai Cave, Lu Cheng once again felt the long-lost pressure of life and death, as well as the urge to reach a higher level of cultivation.

……

There is great terror between life and death, but at the same time, the words life and death are also the key to unlocking the treasures of Taoist practice.

The combined strength of all cultivators fought against the ancient corpse demon in the late Nascent Soul stage. During the next few days of recovery, Lu Cheng not only comprehended the skills and improved his Taoism, but he even kept recalling the six-line divine numbers of True Lord Hongyu in his mind.

After transferring the algorithm parameters into the Heavenly Demon Algorithm, Lu Cheng continued to calculate and vaguely figured out the approximate location of the target that True Lord Hongyu was looking for.

Seven days later, in Tianhai Cave Heaven, amidst the undulating mountains, Lu Cheng kept moving and stopping.

From time to time, he stretched out his left hand and calculated quickly with the five fingers, using the Heavenly Demon Algorithm to measure all things in the world and the operation of the heavenly secrets.

“It should be right here.”

During these seven days, Lu Cheng traveled tens of thousands of miles. Alone, he did not dare to hunt down the withered bone monks or ghost monks.

During the process, he encountered a ghost cultivator, but he simply scared it away with the Netherworld Flying Sword.

During the day he would hide his body with the Tianyi True Secret Method and travel by the magic of walking on the ground. At night he would burrow underground to avoid death and darkness and recuperate his body and spirit.

"It's actually a formation that is almost naturally formed? No, it's the Yuanshen cultivator who changed the world with a thought, forming a natural hidden formation within a radius of hundreds of miles."

Lu Cheng practiced Taoism all his life, but he was only good at one formation, which was the sword formation.

After repeatedly calculating the direction with the Tianmo algorithm and confirming it was correct, Lu Cheng put his fingers together to form a sword and pointed at a valley entrance in front of him.

Suddenly, a strong wind arose, dragons roared and swords whistled, and a green sword light as thick as several people could hold together appeared out of thin air and fell above the valley entrance.

The entrance of the valley, which was originally empty, suddenly began to spread out with several circles of ripples.

But this one sword alone was not enough. After the green sword came red, and after the red came ochre. Flying swords appeared out of thin air, one after another falling on the nodes where the ripples spread.

It was visible to the naked eye that the wind and clouds around suddenly changed, and countless fluctuations of the vital energy of heaven and earth gathered together, transforming into wind blades, fire dragons, and lightning that entangled and collided with the sword lights one after another. At the entrance of the valley, a forbidden array pattern formed out of thin air and trembled violently.

At this moment, Lu Cheng's hand gestures changed, and the five-colored sword lights of green, red, white, yellow and black flying in the void in front of him began to spin in the air, and finally suddenly turned into a huge colorful five-colored flowing sword light, slashing down.

Swish, swish, a sound like tearing cloth was heard in the air, and then the shape of the mountain in front of him became very different from before.

Lu Cheng immediately walked in quickly. After a moment, ripples in the void reappeared and the place quickly returned to its previous mountain shape.

As the first day of the new year arrives, darkness envelops everyone and makes them feel cold all over.

It was still daytime outside, but in this special space, there was obviously no daylight and it was forever dark.

What Lu Cheng saw was seven huge demon tombs with black light rising into the void, covering the sky and the sun, affecting everything.

Faintly, Lu Cheng could still hear the sounds of fighting from ten thousand years ago.

It seemed that I saw several huge demonic shadows attacking a ball of five-colored light, but they were violently swallowed up by the sudden surge of five-colored light.

"At least seven human Yuanshen cultivators died here. You are all my demon elders. Please accept Lu Cheng's greetings."

Lu Cheng held his hands together in front of him and bowed deeply.

The struggle for the living space between humans and demons is more serious than the struggle between Taoism and demonism. Those Yuanshen cultivators from ten thousand years ago could not have been unaware of the power of the Five-Colored Divine Light, but they still brazenly attacked Kong Ji in that era of great contention. It is precisely because of such human cultivators that it is demonstrated that the destiny of the human race in the heavens is not over.

Although each of the seven demon tombs in front of them was emitting demonic energy, the magical meanings contained in the demonic energy were obviously different.

Two of them exuded a sharp and murderous aura like a sword. The two demon tombs were one green and the other purple. The rising demonic energy from one of the demon tombs revealed a thunderous magic intent. The remaining two tombs exuded a mysterious and unpredictable sense, and one exuded a highly poisonous breath.

It is obvious that these seven demonic soul cultivators took different paths during their lifetime, and the inheritances they left behind are also different. Although the soul cultivators died, their magic will still remain even after tens of thousands of years. If the cultivator who enters this place is a demon, even if the seven demon tombs are destroyed, the demon cultivator will get nothing.

It was because the Divine Lord Kongji saw this clearly that he invested the Tianhai Cave Heaven into the Tongxuan World as nourishment. If there had not been this resistance from the cultivators of the Tongxuan Realm, after tens of thousands of years, even the Tianhai Cave Heaven would have collapsed, and the inheritance left by these demonic cultivators would no longer exist.

Lu Cheng once again stretched out his five fingers and calculated, and after repeatedly sensing it, he walked towards the demon tomb where purple demonic energy was rising into the sky. That place seemed to be the most suitable place for him.

At the top of the mountain, there is a crack burning with purple demonic flames.

Demonic energy continued to seep out, polluting the surrounding objects, making the surrounding environment gradually become evil and terrifying.

But today, a Taoist priest came looking for the trace.

After looking around for a moment, he walked to a crack that had spewed out purple devil flames a moment ago, and jumped directly down. The next moment, the devil flames that shot up into the sky gushed out again.

All I see is purple.

The dark gold protective power flowed on Taoist Lu Cheng's skin. His eyes ached as he stared at it, but the demon's power was so overwhelming that the purple flames rushing towards him still suppressed him and made his eyes go black.

In my ears, I seem to hear whispers from ten thousand years ago:

"Master said that she would lead us to create a great achievement that would shake the world."

"…I don't care. I just want to be with Master."

Under the impact of the oncoming purple flames, Lu Cheng seemed to have returned to the tragic battle in the Ruyi Tianmo realm tens of thousands of years ago that destroyed the world.

This time, Lu Cheng seemed to be entering from a bystander perspective.

In the darkness, the man in simple Taoist robes seemed to be the only source of light between heaven and earth.

Lu Cheng stared at the man intently, as if he was sensed by him. He turned his head to look, but could not see his face clearly. However, the pair of pitch-black eyes that seemed to contain five colors suddenly entered his mind like an engraving.

Lu Cheng suddenly lowered his head, because the magic power that was originally running normally in his body suddenly ran wild at this moment, running disorderly and splitting into the five energies.

Even the Five Elements Flying Sword in the Dantian, which had been cultivated with the innate vitality, began to spin suddenly, as if it was about to turn to someone else.

"I am the innate master of the Five Elements. The five elements of the world are all in my hands!"

The voice was not loud, but it inexplicably filled the world, like the irreversible movement of the universe.

At this time, the figure that Lu Cheng was possessed of had already flown towards the Taoist priest.

Lu Cheng used his mind to calm down the five energies, and used his hands to make hand gestures to guide the five energies. He already felt a great instinctive fear of Kong Ji's high level of Taoism.

Because he also practiced the Five Elements, he was able to vaguely know how terrifying the other party was.

However, when the demon shadow that Lu Cheng possessed attacked Kong Ji, he was shocked and terrified.

However, after Lu Cheng practiced Taoism for more than two hundred years, the fundamental will to change deep in his nature is still at work.

"Life and death are trivial matters. I have a sword, please watch!"

Lu Cheng put his fingers together like a sword and swung it out, forgetting about life and death, just wanting to use all he had learned in this one sword.

In an instant, he was synchronized with the demonic shadow from ten thousand years ago.

The root nature of Taoism is regarded as the key to becoming an immortal:

Courage, perseverance, intelligence, prudence, diligence, and virtue; compared to these, magical powers, spiritual consciousness, physical body, and merits can even be regarded as external studies.

boom.

The next moment, Lu Cheng fell into a stone cave amidst the burning purple flames.

At this time, there was still purple demonic flames on his body that had not dissipated.

Find the devil's tomb, find the right crack, and jump down.

Coming here is just the beginning of the test. If one's physical cultivation is not good enough or one's magic power is not enough, the cultivators who come here will be burned by the purple flames.

Even if one has sufficient physical body and magical power, if one loses his mind when facing Kong Ji who lived tens of thousands of years ago, he will not be able to obtain the inheritance here.

After taking a breath in the cave and making some adjustments, Lu Cheng stood up and looked around:

This should be the cave of a female cultivator. There are exquisite patterns carved on the surrounding stone walls, and faint purple flames can be seen through, which looks quite impressive.

The furnishings in the cave are simple yet elegant, with a jade bed covered with an exquisite straw mat and a scroll hanging at the head of the bed.

There is an ancient zither placed in the corner. Its body is smooth and its strings are silent, as if waiting for the owner of this place to come and play it again.

At the deepest part of the cave, there is an open secret room, inside which is placed an alchemy furnace and various utensils for refining elixirs.

There was a bookshelf in the corner, with thick books on it. In the center of the secret room was a round stone table, with some bottles and jars on it.

Lu Cheng walked to the side of the jade bed and looked. On the scroll, he saw a black-robed female cultivator with a group of disciples, leaning against the mountain and gazing into the distance.

Written on the side of the scroll is:
Cui Luan, the Ruyi Heavenly Demon from the Yin and Yang Realm, destroyed the Haoran Sect of the Great Dao in the God and Demon Cave at Mount Lushan.

"It turns out that Ruyi Tianmo is actually a woman. She traveled across all the realms of the heavens and unified all the evil demons. She was able to fight a decisive battle with Kong Ji of the Five Elements Dao Palace in this world. Although she was defeated, she was far better than most cultivators in this world."

At the same time, Lu Cheng also noticed that the jade bed beside him was engraved with tiny words.

He lifted up the exquisite straw mat placed on it, and sure enough, this was the Taoist secret technique left by the Yuanshen Demon Cultivator of this place:

The secret strategy of the Heavenly Stone of Transformation of Emotions, this skill requires a Xuanyin body with its original Yin intact to practice and cultivate, turning the stone into stone and severing emotions, after nine transformations of skill, the spiritual stone is like a rock, and nothing can hurt it...

"This person must be Cui Luan's disciple."

Lu Cheng looked at the skills on the jade bed, and then looked at the scroll in front of him. Next to the black-clothed female cultivator in the scroll, he saw a beautiful girl in gray with eyes full of admiration.

Although the secret strategy of the Heavenly Stone of Transformation is not suitable for one's own practice, even for those around her... no, Third Uncle Mie Hongzi seems to be quite suitable for practicing this kind of magic skill if she has a Xuanyin body.

But no matter what, it is a seventh-level spiritual power inheritance after all. Even if it is just to assist in comprehension and accumulate foundation, it is already worth the trip.

Suddenly, Lu Cheng noticed that in the scroll in front of him, the black-clothed female cultivator, Ruyi Tianmo Cui Luan, was leading her disciples to point out the world, and one of her hands was inexplicably pointing diagonally downwards.

Lu Cheng looked at the scroll, then looked at the jade bed that Cui Luan pointed to.

"It can't be meaningless. This Demonic Spirit Elder was obsessed with her master all her life and didn't even leave her name. How could the paintings she left behind cause her master to do unnecessary and meaningless things?"

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng first recorded the secret plan of the Heavenly Stone of Love recorded on the jade bed on a jade slip.

There are not many words on the jade bed, but this practice is full of hidden words and allusions, and one sentence may refer to a book.

Meditation and practice must be carried out in accordance with the classics left by the predecessor in this room. Otherwise, no matter who practices, they will go astray and there will be no chance of success.

After finishing everything, he pushed hard again to make sure that the jade bed could not be moved. Lu Cheng used his magic power to smash the entire jade bed to pieces with a palm.

When the rubble flew away, Lu Cheng found a portal underneath it that was as big as the jade bed.

"What kind of treasure is it? Is it necessary to hide it so deeply?"

Lu Cheng pushed the door open and entered, revealing an underground stone chamber.

It is narrow at first, but gradually becomes wider as you walk into it.

There was nothing else in the underground secret room except for a series of exercise diagrams and tiny handwriting covering the walls:
Ruyi Tianmo Record.

Just as Lu Cheng was shocked by the martial arts inheritance hidden here, the secret room behind him suddenly closed with a click.

Lu Cheng walked back and checked it, and found that it was a mechanical device that had been designed long ago. He used his spiritual sense and magic power to strike with a palm. From the feedback he received, it would not be easy even if he wanted to dismantle the place and walk out.

Even judging from the character of the owner of this place, if anyone who enters this place fails to master the Ruyi Tianmo Lu and wants to leave by force, the entire demon tomb here might explode.

"I would rather have no successor than let incompetent people damage the reputation of my master. The seniors of the magic way are really more narrow-minded than each other."

In orthodox sects, internal competition among disciples is often not very fierce. The elder immortal masters train their disciples step by step, and rarely use methods such as stimulating potential through resentment over life and death.

Although Lu Cheng was born in Huoyun Mansion and later joined the Ten Thousand Beasts Incarnation Palace, one of the four major demon sects, he has always been trusted by Huang Longzi because of his status and talent.

It was the first time in my life that I experienced the orthodox magic practice method where success meant death.

"Well, let me see how difficult it is to practice the Ruyi Tianmo Record." What Lu Cheng is worried about now is that the Ruyi Tianmo Record, like its derivative technique, the Secret Strategy of Huaqing Tianshi, requires a special physique or Kun cultivation to practice. If that is the case, then there is no other way, and he can only see if the hidden trick left by the demon elder can kill him.

After returning to the secret room and reading it carefully from beginning to end, Lu Cheng soon immersed himself in this mysterious and indescribable magic technique:

“Melting gold into iron, refining treasures into the body, opening up all meridians, a wishful demon body, a myriad of demon transformations… This wishful demon record, at first, melts the spiritual materials and spiritual iron into one’s own body, refines the body and cultivates the self, and after achieving some success, one can then refine magic treasures into the body.

After the practice is completed, all meridians are open, and it becomes a wishful demon body, which is invulnerable to all kinds of attacks and cannot be hurt by any methods. It is just a matter of course. "
