Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 341: Breaking the Calamity (I am adjusting my physical and mental state, returning to my sunny, healthy, diligent and renewed self)
In the raging sea of ​​fire, the Sun-Swallowing Ape, with only a golden skeleton left, stood quietly in the blazing flames, with the blazing tongues licking the remaining blood, tendons and flesh.

Although its skeleton is wrapped in the flames of magic fire, it exudes a toughness and strength like refined steel.

Whenever it roared towards the sky, the sound was like rolling thunder, echoing across the sky and shaking the earth and sky.

Above the sky, lightning flashed and moved like dragons and snakes in the clouds. They gathered into a huge vortex of cloud, as if they were about to descend and devour the world.

This vortex formed a strange echo with the giant ape on the top of the mountain. They were up and down, confronting each other, and neither was willing to retreat.

Gradually, colorful precious light shone down from the sky, and Jiuxiao Xuanzhen broke the fifth calamity of the heavenly thunder calamity, the Hundred Treasures God Refining Calamity, which can also be called the Hundred Treasures God Damaging Calamity.

Under this calamity, the more magic weapons the monk has and the stronger his spirituality is, the more damage he will suffer. The more powerful the calamity force will be, and the more difficult it will be for the monk to survive.

Of course, there is also an advantage. As long as one successfully passes through the Hundred Treasures Refining Tribulation, the spirituality of the refined magic weapon can be greatly increased, and even enlightened to have infinite uses.

However, the Hundred Treasures God Refining Tribulation often exists as an auxiliary tribulation among multiple large-scale heavenly tribulations. If it exists alone as a sixth-order heavenly tribulation, then the cultivator who undergoes the tribulation must be a cultivator who has committed few sins and has extremely profound merits and virtues. Lu Cheng can have no hope of passing through it in this lifetime.

In the midst of fire, Lu Cheng changed from the state of a Sun-Swallowing Ape to a Taoist in human form, looking up at the changes in the sky.

He waved his sleeves, and several magical weapons with his body as the center flew away. Among them, the Netherworld Flying Sword escaped the fastest.

It has already grown its spirituality like a living being, so it feels the terrifying restraining force even more under this natural calamity, just like when a mouse meets a cat or a frog meets a snake in nature, there are indeed examples of a mouse swallowing the snake instead, but they are after all an absolute minority.

Taoism can be cultivated slowly, but under this heavenly calamity, one's body and soul will be destroyed if one is not careful. So as soon as Lu Cheng let it go, it escaped faster than anyone else.

"It has a lot of anger but lacks courage. In the future, I will have to let Shisheng take it down the mountain to train more often, otherwise it will be hard to achieve anything."

This thought only flashed through his mind, and then Lu Cheng focused all his attention on the heavenly tribulation in front of him.

At this moment, the only thing left on him was his life-saving magic weapon, the Five Elements Flying Sword. This would inevitably attract more power from the Hundred Treasures Divine Tribulation, so it would make no difference whether he could let it escape or not.

After a certain period of accumulation, the thunder tribulation approached. At first, it was a few ordinary wisps of lightning that fell, but it made the five elements flying swords in the body shrink inward instinctively in fear, as if they wanted to hide under the Nascent Soul.

Lu Cheng pointed his finger and a strong wind condensed, which collided with the lightning. Both of them dissipated together. Then, more lightning fell, but the power did not seem to be great. It seemed that as long as there were not too many magic weapons involved in the fifth tribulation of refining the soul with a hundred treasures, the tribulation would not be too severe and difficult to survive.

However, as time went by, the translucent lightning gradually fell like a downpour, and each lightning contained destructive power.

Seeing this, Lu Cheng leaped up and turned into a long rainbow, heading towards the sea of ​​thunder. His figure flickered in the lightning, and every time he appeared, there was a loud bang of a fist, which was the sound of the lightning colliding with the magic power in his body.

No magic weapon can be used to deal with the calamity, otherwise the spirituality of the magic weapon will be damaged, and it may even attract greater calamity power. This calamity will be difficult to survive for most cultivators in the world.

However, Lu Cheng had a body that almost surpassed his level. Lu Cheng's hands flew and changed, and extremely powerful magic power surged out of every move and style. Most of the translucent lightning was often blown out and dissolved by the magic wind spreading around Lu Cheng before they got close.

The fifth transformation of the Great Five Elements True Spirit Transformation Method is the Dance of the Kunpeng in the Vast Ocean.

"I was wondering what happened. My response was correct, but I still felt a lot of calamity power. It turned out that when I practiced the Ruyi Heavenly Demon Record, I swallowed the spiritual gold and spiritual iron and transformed them into my body, which gave my body some characteristics of a magic weapon, so my calamity power increased. Fortunately, the calamity power of the Hundred Treasures Refining God did not have a restraining effect on me."

While Lu Cheng transformed into Kunpeng and wandered in the sky, the entire Tongxuan world was already paying attention to this tribulation.

Some monks even came to intercept and kill them, and some monks came to help.

However, the more numerous cultivators from the Taoist and Demonic sects were more concerned about the outcome of the Lord of the Heavenly and Earthly Demon Palace's passage through this heavenly tribulation.

Thousands of miles away, in Feng Tower of Kunwu Fairy Palace, the current owner of Shuangxiu Mansion, Shen Liuyue, was wearing a white veil, with fair skin and a dignified appearance. However, on the jade bed where she was lying on her side, there were already four muscular and handsome young men lying on the bed. At this time, there were two young and handsome men on both sides of her, serving and caressing her eagerly.

In front of her was a bronze mirror, reflecting the great catastrophe happening on Mount Zhiguan thousands of miles away.

When she saw Jiuxiao Xuanzhen breaking through the fifth tribulation of heavenly thunder, the mirror in front of her suddenly made a buzzing sound, and then, before she could react, it shattered with a loud bang.

"Hundred Treasures Refining Divine Tribulation?"

According to the original knowledge of the cultivators in the Tongxuan Realm, they were not able to foresee this calamity.

But now it is the caravan of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, and it has been several decades since they came to the outer world. Shuangxiu Mansion has no shortage of spiritual stones and treasures. As the master of the mansion, Shen Liuyue has naturally purchased many Taoist books and scriptures. His knowledge has greatly improved over the years, and he recognized this Hundred Treasures Divine Refining Tribulation.

The magic weapon Tianguan Mirror was destroyed. Shen Liuyue did not show it on his face but was a little angry in his heart. He stood up, casually brushed away the two male cultivators who were serving him, and walked into the hall without paying attention to their falls and kneeling and kowtowing.

popping.

Shen Liuyue lightly clapped her palms, and a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind her.

"Master, do you need me for something?"

"We can no longer protect the remnants of Beichen Jianmen... Never mind, we have been friends for many years after all. Go and call those elders over, and I will personally send them off."

"Yes."

The shadow behind Shen Liuyue hesitated for a moment, but still answered very quickly.

She was originally a female slave sent to Beichen Jianmen by Shuangxiu Mansion. They claimed that once they recognized their master, they would be loyal to him. Even if their master became a beggar, they would only think that they had not done well enough and would follow him until death. It was not easy to train them, and each of them was a close associate of the true disciples of Beichen Jianmen.

However, with the demise of the Demonic Path's unified Beichen Sword Sect, Shen Liuyue, the original dual cultivation master, believed that Beichen Sword Sect, as a thousand-year-old inheritance of the Demonic Path's sword cultivation sect, might have a chance to prosper again in the future when all realms are connected.

But today, Shen Liuyue finally believed that the danger of continuing to protect Beichen Jianmen far outweighed the benefits, and decided to sever this thousand-year friendship.

In the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an, Eight Views, in a quiet Taoist temple, Gu Qinghong, who has succeeded the position of the temple master, is wearing a plain Taoist robe and shaking the fortune stick tube with both hands, deducing the secrets for Lu Cheng again and again.

However, every time the shaking of the seal was finished and the deduction was completed, the results obtained were all: bad, extremely bad, fatal, and no hope of life.

However, even so, as she calculated, Gu Qinghong began to laugh softly.

Finally, she put down the lottery box in her hand, walked to the window and looked out.

"The human hexagram corresponds to this. After you survive this disaster, how much more disaster will you bring to the world? Alas, you were born to face the disaster, and you were created to face the disaster..."

On Zhiguan Mountain, everyone in the Taoist Palace had a solemn expression on their faces.

"Father, can activating the mountain protection formation at this time save my husband's life?"

At this time, Xiao Yuxue's hands and feet were already cold, and her face was pale with fear. Her foundation in Taoism was a little shallow, but she could see that the heavenly tribulation her husband was going through at this moment was extremely abnormal. It was continuous and multiple, and seemed endless and would not stop until death.

My husband wields a sword and acts as a hero, fighting against demons and gods, protecting the peace of the area. His merits are so great that he is not favored by heaven, so why should he be like this? Taoist Huang Longzi remained silent after hearing this. He could see that the great heavenly tribulation had already reached the fifth tribulation, but his disciple's mana had been greatly depleted. Shouxuan seemed to have consumed a lot of mana before returning to the mountain. When facing the fourth tribulation, he had to sacrifice his life with the Five Elements Transformation, using fire to generate earth and restore his own mana.

However, this method consumes a lot of energy and blood.

"Could it be that Shouxuan had a fight with a very powerful enemy when he returned to the mountain? Otherwise, with his profound magical power, he would not have resorted to the method of sacrificing his life during the fourth calamity. However, it seems that this heavenly calamity is far more than five or six times, and each calamity is more severe than the last. How will he survive the next few calamities?

It's hard to say, in the end I can only support the mountain protection formation as Yuxue said, and use this method to deal with the final heavenly tribulation, and there is some hope that I can successfully overcome the tribulation."

Taoist Huang Longzi has studied Taoist scriptures in depth and knows that it is best not to interfere with the heavenly tribulation by external forces, otherwise the heavenly tribulation will be doubly severe, and there is even the possibility that the external tribulation will turn into various internal tribulations or demonic tribulations that will be even more bizarre and difficult to defend against. However, if the cultivator has already overcome most of the tribulation force, and at the last moment uses methods such as the mountain protection formation to block the attack, it is possible that the heavenly tribulation can be considered overcome.

Of course, there were also cultivators who tried to overcome tribulation in this way, but eventually died from the internal combustion of the true fire in their bodies. There are records of both successful and failed examples.

And at this time, after a long time had passed.

The power of the fifth calamity of the heavenly thunder that Jiuxiao Xuanzhen used to destroy was finally gradually exhausted.

Finally, Lu Cheng's entire body suddenly turned into an angry fist, bombarding the calamity clouds in the sky. The huge impact of magic power even dispersed the calamity clouds in the sky. Although he could not dissolve the calamity power, it at least delayed the time for the next calamity to come, buying himself some breathing space.

“Huhuhu, this kind of heavenly tribulation is divided into nine levels. I am now going through the fifth level. There are still four levels to go. My magic power has been greatly reduced by more than half. Even if the Five Elements Transformation is better at recovering energy and my energy is much more accumulated, I will not be able to survive this tribulation under normal circumstances…”

Although he was thinking like this, Lu Cheng's expression was extremely calm.

Bits of spiritual energy traveled through the hundreds of extraordinary meridians in his body and finally fell on the Huangting. A small part was swallowed up by Lu Cheng's Nascent Soul, and most of it fell on the Five Elements Flying Sword.

The Hundred Treasures Divine Refining Tribulation has the ability to transform the spirituality of magic weapons. After this tribulation, the spirituality of the Five Elements Flying Sword grew and its quality was greatly purified, which at least saved Lu Cheng a hundred years of hard practice and refining.

Of course, this means that Lu Cheng can survive this disaster. If he can't, everything will be over.

Lu Cheng performed the last punch of the Hanhai Kunpeng Dance, which caused the calamity force to spread and the dark clouds to roll. They needed to gather again to buy some time.

Half an hour later, the heavy dark clouds in the sky were like a lead curtain, covering the sky layer by layer, so thick that it seemed as if an endless rainstorm would pour down at any time.

In the calamity clouds, lightning flashed like snakes, winding and moving, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

Suddenly, a bolt of thunder cut through the sky, and the lightning was like a divine pillar, piercing through the clouds, as if it would pierce through the heaven and earth. For a moment, the sky was dyed a pale white by this unparalleled lightning.

Jiuxiao Xuanzhen destroyed the sixth catastrophe of heavenly thunder and annihilated the primordial thunder without beginning.

Since there is no beginning, there is naturally no end.

Blue and white beams of light fell from the sky, like a punishment from heaven.

But at this moment, as the calamity clouds rose, Lu Cheng flew up on his sword and rushed towards the lightning.

Thunder fell, swords slashed, lightning collapsed and dissipated.

Break! Break! Break! Break! Break! Break! Break!
He just swung the sword, swung the sword, and continued to swing the sword. The sword light was everywhere, and the sword energy connected the sky and the earth.

At this moment, Lu Cheng seemed to put everything aside and forget everything. He just regarded the sky as a skilled opponent. He kept swinging his sword to attack and dismantling the sword moves.

Thunder rises, sword arrives, and the thunder extinguishes.

After experiencing the Hundred Treasures Soul Refining Tribulation, the Five Elements Flying Sword had already been enlightened, and its spirituality had greatly increased. At this moment, it was in spiritual communication with its master's sword, and suddenly burst out with all its brilliance and potential.

The Great Five Elements Life and Death Aurora Sword.

In an instant, the five colors of light, green, yellow, red, white and black, were arranged in order, spreading out with the body of Taoist Lu Cheng as the center. Each line was as real as a substance and as crystal clear as beautiful jade from heaven. As the light flowed, it returned to its original state and performed the five elements.

With this boundless sword spirit, he instantly controlled the changes in the five elements of energy within a hundred miles above the Zhiguan Mountain, and immediately suppressed the tyrannical and violent Wu Shi Mie Yuan Lei.

Life and death are the keys to unlock the treasures of Taoism, and are also the best teachers for sword practitioners. Today's catastrophe has indeed brought out all the potential of Lu Cheng's body and mind.

An endless stream of inspiration emerged, integrating what he had learned over hundreds of years into one, perfectly blending Lu Cheng's swordsmanship and Qi techniques into one.

Just this Great Five Elements Life and Death Aurora Sword is an unparalleled skill that ordinary cultivators can rely on to dominate the world.

"My husband, why are you still wasting your magic power at this time? What's the point of fighting against the sky?"

Inside the Taoist Palace, Xiao Yuxue saw Lu Cheng controlling the sword light to destroy the lightning pillars in the sky. Many of the lightning lights clearly did not fall on him, but were still strangled by his sword light. She could not help but speak anxiously.

"Sister, you are upset. My husband has always been prudent in doing things. He must have his considerations when he does this." Seeing that her sister was furious, Xiao Yuhong stepped forward, gently held her hand, and injected a stream of magic power into her to help her calm down.

However, even Xiao Yuhong was anxious, and she felt that the Five Elements Sword Light was her husband's unprecedented breakthrough. But looking at the world that was transformed into daytime by the waterfall-like lightning, the calamity power in the sky did not subside at all, but instead gathered even more. Even Xiao Yuhong felt a little desperate.

"My husband and father have worked hard all their lives to fight against the foreign demon gods, but they didn't want to suffer such a fate. However, the will of heaven is always difficult to question. If my husband leaves today, Yuxue and I will accompany him on the road to the underworld. Even if this world doesn't want us, we won't stay there."

But the next moment, the sword rang!

"Qiang!"

The clear and pleasant sound of the sword even covered up the sound of thunder in the sky.

The next moment, Lu Cheng also told Xiao Yuhong the fact that the catastrophe that she thought was insurmountable seemed to be just a ravine that could be crossed in the eyes of her husband.

The heaven and earth were suddenly cut in half by that ray of sword light!
The sword has accumulated strength and has become a profound sword!
At the end of the sixth calamity of Jiuxiao Xuanzhen's destructive heavenly thunder calamity, Lu Cheng, at the peak of the Great Five Elements Life and Death Divine Light Sword, finally unleashed the Tongxuan Sword with enough sword energy and power.

The sky was suddenly torn apart by a powerful force, as if it was the wrath of God, ruthlessly splitting the sky into two.

The sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder rumbled. Between the lightning and thunder, a dazzling sword light cut through the sky, instantly illuminating the entire world.

The thick clouds seemed to be cut open by a sharp sword. The crack seemed to be bottomless, sucking in the calamity clouds and power in the sky.

The sword fights against the sky and destroys everything. When the sword is slashed out, the ten thousand miles of heavenly calamity is almost completely dissipated under Lu Cheng's sword.

“No, I miscalculated. This sword did not cut off three tribulations in a row, but only the seventh and eighth tribulations.

This ninth level of thunder tribulation is... the Purple Lightning Immortal Slaying Tribulation!"
