Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 465: The red sun rises into the sky and turns into a calamity sun, and then we know that the sword is the great plan (Please subscribe!)
Deep in the Qingyu Dao Palace of Wanleihai, a white jade chessboard was suspended in the air, with black and white pieces dotted on it like stars.

A tall middle-aged man in a red robe was playing chess with a handsome young man in a light blue Taoist robe.

True Lord Huo Ling held the black jade chess piece in his hand and was reluctant to drop it. A faint red light flowed through his fingertips, burning the chess piece until it was translucent.

"Fellow Daoist Shi's 'Stars Hanging in the Wilds' is truly exquisite." Lady Huo Ling, who was beside True Lord Huo Ling, gently waved her round fan and smiled softly, covering her mouth:

"My husband has studied chess for three hundred years, and I'm afraid he will be defeated by you again today."

"Madam, you are too kind. Senior Huo Ling's 'Earth Fire Mingyi' just now almost burned half of my kingdom. If it weren't for the lingering effect, I would have surrendered by now."

Madam Huo Ling felt a little annoyed watching these two poor chess players playing chess, but they were still playing very seriously. Two days had already passed and she didn't know how long the fight would last.

Lord Fire Spirit and Madam Fire Spirit were the two demon fairies, Lord Fire Spirit and Queen Fire Spirit, from the Wuliang Fire Demon Cave in the Tongxuan Realm.

At that time, the Tongxuan Realm was shrouded in the great formation of demon gods, and it was difficult for a great Nascent Soul cultivator to be born. However, the couple Huo Ling, the masters of the Wuliang Earth Fire Demon Cave, could naturally call themselves gods after they had respectively cultivated their Nascent Souls.

But as his knowledge grows and the seven realms open up, if Yuanying Zhenjun calls himself a divine monarch again, it will be a road to disaster and death.

So the couple was naturally downgraded to Lord Fire Spirit and Madam Fire Spirit.

These two demon immortals hold a rare treasure called the Great Wheel of Samsara. It is unknown which immortal's ancient treasure has incredible power that can help alchemy practitioners to be reborn and overcome the mystery in the womb.

The true spirits of cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage are unstable, and in most cases they are unable to practice and transform tribulations. However, the Great Wheel of Samsara can break this limitation.

Over the years, with the help of this rare treasure, the couple made a fortune and became wealthy, and even the people close to them benefited greatly.

However, it was still a bit of a stretch for the Fire Spirit Master and his wife to control such a precious treasure. Fortunately, the couple had strong magical powers and were united, and they fought off many powerful enemies.

But this is not a long-term solution. Sooner or later, you will encounter an enemy that you cannot defeat.

Just when the couple was in distress, they unexpectedly learned through some channels that Lu Cheng Zhenjun, the lord of the Heaven and Earth Demon Palace, with whom they had a relationship in the past, had been promoted to a primordial spirit.

So the couple immediately rushed to the Fiery Realm, visited him and presented him with valuable gifts.

For example, some time ago, when Lord Lu's concubine Xue Zhenjun celebrated her thousandth birthday, the couple presented her with three pounds of sixth-grade top-grade spiritual object, the Heart-Burning Sand, which attracted a lot of attention.

But they are not the only ones who do this. In other words, in the entire Tongxuan Realm, there are few cultivators with sufficient magical powers who do not want to come to the Wanlei Sea to visit the God.

Not to mention receiving their guidance and education, even if you are protected by their reputation, it is possible to save your life sometimes.

For example, Lord Huo Ling and his wife, who were nominally related to Lord Lu, often went to the Qingyu Taoist Palace to pay a visit. Many of their powerful enemies often swallowed their anger for the sake of the Lord's majesty.

The Heaven and Earth Demon Palace was originally the number one demonic sect in the Tongxuan Realm, but after hundreds of years, it has now been revered as the Heaven and Earth Taoist Palace.

Of course, this is also because Lu Cheng intends to strictly enforce laws and discipline his disciples in order to change the sect's atmosphere.

After several hours, True Lord Huo Ling finally gave up and admitted defeat, and gave Taoist Shi Sheng a treasured volume of the Taoist book "Hunyuan Lei Gang".

Then the couple left the Taoist palace with Shi Sheng seeing them off.

Between the sea and the sky, a red light was flying.

"Madam, my husband and I are losing face in front of Lord Lu. Lord Lu even saw us in person when we first came here.

Later it was Madam Xiao, and then the Divine Lord’s disciples, but after all, Miao Zhenjun came forward, and now we can only play chess with the Divine Lord’s four disciples.”

Lord Huo Ling looked somewhat displeased, and it showed at this moment.

"The Divine Lord is diligent in practicing the Dao, how can you and I compare? The two ladies are traveling, and Miao Zhenjun is out for something, don't you and I know this?
I think you just lost your temper because you lost the game of chess, but you know how many people would beg for this relationship with the number one cultivator in Tongxuan?"

“…Huang Longzi is so lucky to have such a disciple.” True Lord Huo Ling was silent for a while, and finally let out a long sigh.

If I also have a disciple like this, even if I have the power of Nascent Soul, my name of Fire Spirit God will be worthy of its name.

"After all, there are more mediocre people in this world"

Madam Huo Ling's magical power and temperament are even greater than that of her former mentor, and she is planning to continue to help her husband relieve the depression in his heart.

Suddenly, the earth shook.

Rumble, rumble, rumble…

As the earth shook and the mountains trembled, a stream of red light shot up into the sky from the direction of the Qingyu Taoist Palace. In an instant, the sea of ​​clouds boiled and the sky was dyed with rosy clouds for thousands of miles.

"Roar--"

The roar of a dragon from the Nine Skies shook the world, and a red dragon soared into the sky, with every scale emitting a blazing light like molten gold.

The five claws under its belly had dark patterns on them, the bump on its head was cracked, and two glazed golden horns were slowly emerging.

But at the same time, where the green energy in the east met the fire in the south, the calamity clouds in the sky had spread out like ink.

Below the flying and dancing ancient fire dragon, Taoist Lu Cheng stood on the top of the mountain with his hands behind his back. His Taoist robe rustled under the violent spiritual pressure. Golden and red light flowed in his eyes, reflecting the thousand-foot dragon shadow that broke through the air - sixty years of refining with the Samadhi True Fire finally came to light at this moment.

It turned out that sixty years ago, when Chilong returned with his son, Lu Chengfuzhi sensed the operation of the destiny through telepathy and calculated that if he helped Chilong to ascend to the realm of godhood, he would also get an opportunity.

Although due to the relationship itself, it cannot be deduced too clearly and can only be roughly estimated, but Lu Cheng is well aware that the hexagram cannot be fully calculated.

Don't calculate it over and over again, but start doing it immediately.

He asked Chilong if he was willing to endure some hardships in order to advance to the Spiritual Transformation Realm.

After thousands of years of experience, Chilong was naturally willing, and he trusted Lu Cheng very much, so he allowed the Taoist to lock him in the belly of the mountain and refine his true form with the Samadhi True Fire day and night.

There were countless hidden wounds on the Red Dragon's body, all of which were the remnants of thousands of years. Lu Cheng used the Samadhi True Fire to refine them to restore his vitality, and then used extremely high Taoist practices to reshape his body. Sixty years later, when the task was completed, the Red Dragon naturally felt that his chance to break through to the God Transformation was right in front of him.

"Master, please let me go outside and use my own magic power to survive the disaster. The Red Dragon will definitely not let you down."

Inside the belly of the mountain, in the blazing true fire, the scaly and horned dragon spoke like this to the Taoist. Using one's own power to overcome the divine tribulation will indeed be of great benefit in laying a more powerful foundation for the Tao in the future. Hence, the event of the ancient fire dragon overcoming the tribulation happened.

At this moment, the disaster clouds in the sky have turned from red to black, and the vortex in the center is like a giant eye overlooking the world.

When the first bolt of lightning struck, it was actually red-gold in color, as thick as a bucket, and went straight to the top of the red dragon below.

"It's the Gengjin Heavenly Fire Thunder Tribulation!" In the distance, Taoist Shisheng, who was paying close attention to this tribulation in the Qingyu Taoist Palace, exclaimed in surprise.

The Fire Spirit Master and his wife above the vast sea descended rapidly, somewhat intimidated and fearful: "This kind of Dao law and heavenly punishment, this kind of Dao law and heavenly punishment! Is it really possible for human beings to survive it?"

The red dragon below did not dodge or evade, but opened its mouth and spewed out a stream of red flame.

When thunder and fire collide, the remaining flame does not dissipate, and feeds back to the dragon's body, making its scales, armor and claws even more lustrous.

The second and third thunderbolts fell one after another, each one more ferocious than the last. The red dragon either smashed them with its tail or swallowed them with its mouth, doing so with ease. By the fourth level, the thunderbolts had turned into red and white beams of light, distorting the void wherever they passed.

The red dragon let out a long roar, and the two horns on its head suddenly burst into dazzling red light. The light intertwined into a net in front of it, splitting and disintegrating the thunder tribulation.

The aftermath splashed in all directions, vaporizing all the rocks within a ten-mile radius.

At this moment, Taoist Lu Cheng on the distant mountain frowned slightly, because he noticed that a wisp of purple air appeared in the center of the calamity cloud.

This time, the pressure came before the thunder.

The entire Qingyu Dao Palace below was shaking, and the mountain protection formation was activated automatically, and cracks gradually appeared on the light curtain. When the thunder fell, it turned into a deep purple color, carrying a breath of destruction.

"Xiandu Taiyi Divine Thunder?!"

The fifth divine calamity surged in power, and the red dragon below apparently noticed something was wrong. It curled up, and red dragon blood oozed out from its scales, condensing into blood armor outside its body. Purple lightning struck, and most of the blood armor evaporated instantly. The red dragon roared in pain, and its tail swung, flattening half of the mountain.

Fortunately, the Taiyi Divine Thunder of Xiandu could not exert even one tenth of its power in the mortal world, and it only had the power of one strike. After one strike, the calamity clouds in the sky began to gradually dissipate.

The Red Dragon's fate is good. He has not done many good deeds in his life, but he has also done very few bad deeds. Therefore, the Taiyi Divine Thunder of Xiandu was retracted as soon as it was released. If this was a seven or nine disasters heavenly tribulation, it would have been shattered to pieces under the divine thunder.

When a monk cultivates the Dao and overcomes the tribulation, it often depends not only on his own internal cultivation, Daoist swordsmanship, but also on doing more good deeds in the external way, so that he can be favored by the heaven when the heavenly tribulation comes, and reduce many tribulations. Therefore, the magic way is often not welcomed by orthodox monks.

This is because even if you are a master of magic and your ability in fighting is better than most ordinary monks of the same level, but you have evil intentions and commit many murders, when the heavenly calamity comes in the future, you will be turned into ashes if you are not careful. So what if you can be violent for a while?

However, orthodox cultivators had to admit that many great demon cultivators, who had been rampant for a long time, finally looked directly at the laws of Taoism and the punishments of heaven as if they were nothing and broke through the calamity and ascended to heaven.

This is because his research on Taoism has outweighed his numerous evil deeds. Under the vastness of the Tao, the subjective good and evil and right and wrong of the cultivators are too insignificant.

...

"Meet the master."

The red dragon flew down, and after landing, it transformed into a young man in red with dragon horns on his forehead, who performed the ceremony and bowed.

"Well, from now on you will be called Chiyang, and you will practice under me together with Tunyue."

"Thank you, Master."

Chi Yang was very clever, and he changed the snake's name right away.

In fact, to him, Lu Cheng is more like a father. Fortunately, his master is like a master and a father. In the world of immortal cultivation, the relationship between master and apprentice is often closer than that between father and son.

After all, even those who practice Taoism may give birth to children without spiritual roots. It is destined that the elderly will bury the young, which has no other meaning except to add to the sadness. On the contrary, disciples can choose carefully, and the time and energy they put into their selection is often no less than that of their own children.

At this moment, a rainbow light came from afar. Lu Cheng knew who the person was with just a glance of his spiritual sense and asked Chi Yang to follow him.

After a while, Huo Ling Zhenjun and his wife came forward and bowed:

"The Fire Spirit Couple of the Infinite Earth Fire Demon Cave greet the Divine Lord."

"So you are the Fire Spirit couple. I have been in seclusion recently and have neglected you two."

Lu Cheng is not a person who does not remember old friendships. In recent years, almost all the cultivators from the entire Tongxuan Realm, whether they are those with a very bad reputation, both the righteous and the evil, want to establish a relationship with this "First Divine Lord of Tongxuan". If they come to him for help, his disciples will take care of him even if Lu Cheng does not show up. This is not to mention cultivators like True Lord Huo Ling, with whom he once had a certain friendship.

On the other hand, Lu Cheng did this to prepare for disaster.

Most of the monks practice the method of tranquility and blessings. The key is to cut off cause and effect and not be contaminated by calamity. In this way, when the great calamity comes, there will be a chance to avoid it and transcend.

However, he was ready to take on the great calamity brought about by the Tongxuan Demon God. On the one hand, it was what his heart desired, and on the other hand, it was because Lu Cheng practiced the art of refining the soul, and through the Red Heart God, he refined the faith and wishes of countless sentient beings in the Tongxuan Realm into his own spiritual consciousness and magic power.

Only after fulfilling the mission of the Taoist guardian god and helping the Tongxuan world escape the catastrophe of the demon god, can Lu Cheng repay his karma and transcend.

Otherwise, the backlash from that huge power of faith and will would be disastrous.

Since we have to face the calamity, if the affinity is weak, the power will be weak too; if the affinity is strong, the power will be strong too. Involving more cultivators with profound magical powers to fight against the calamity is the correct way to overcome the calamity.

Of course, people with magical powers like the Fire Spirit Master and his wife are just a bonus at best.

Thousands of stars fell from the dome of the Qingyu Taoist Palace. Lu Cheng flicked his wide sleeves, and amber fairy wine appeared on the white jade table.

The Huo Ling couple were about to salute, but they saw a ray of mysterious light condense from his fingertips, and he lifted the two of them up and said, "Why should we be so polite, fellow Taoists? Today we are only talking about friendship."

Before he finished speaking, eighty-one female fairies in white clothes came out from behind the cloud screen. They stepped on green lotus, held the shark silk in their arms, and danced to the rhythm of the zither played by the true disciples that Luo Qingyi had accepted in recent years.

Every time the strings of the zither vibrated, a cluster of fire essences would splash out from the bronze lamp trees at the four corners of the Taoist palace, and turn into fireflies between the fluttering skirts of the female fairies.

At the same time, they sang:
"The nine-sky blue jade falls from the star raft, and the sea of ​​thunder grows fairy flowers.

A song of colorful clothes and a startling shadow, the sword energy cuts the clouds into flying gauze. "

The fingertips of the Jurchen legend from Tianyin Valley brushed across the Jiaowei strings of the zither, and the sound waves spread out like ripples on water. The fairies spun around, and their skirts spread out like moonlight.

"The fire in the cauldron warms the red clouds, and the glass dragon holds a pearl in its mouth, reflecting the crows on its temples.

After thousands of years of cultivation, I have finally achieved my true form. I dare to ask the immortals for help from the thunder tribulation."

"The boundless sword energy penetrates the mystical acupoints, and one talisman creates and destroys a whole sky.

Don't say that immortality is all an illusion, just watch your black hair turn into a wave of disaster. "

The female fairies used their snow-white sleeves as a curtain and performed the wonderful hexagrams of life and death. Finally, they sang a song around Lu Cheng and the Fire Spirit couple:

"When the jade dew is poured, the stars are slanting, I lie drunkenly on the cloud bed and dream of Taihua.

If you ask where this heart is placed, the red dust under the sword is the end of the world. "

These female fairies were not collected and trained by Lu Cheng, but were the Xiao sisters, Xue Yuzhen and Yun Linger. After thousands of years of loneliness, they always needed something to pass the time.

Girls also like beautiful things and fancy songs and dances.

"Good, a good one, 'If you ask where my heart is, the red dust under the sword is the end of the world.'" Lu Cheng put down the wine cup, clapped his hands and chuckled.

At this moment, a clear bell sound was heard outside the hall, and a ray of light broke through the clouds. It turned out to be the Zhu Ling Flying Chariot, the flying chariot of the Xiao sisters.

Xiao Yuhong was wearing a snow-white fairy dress, her hair tied up in a bun with nine phoenixes holding pearls, and a red jade tassel hung in front of her forehead, which made her eyebrows and eyes look like a painting when she walked.

Xiao Yuxue wore a dark gold feathered robe, without a hairpin or ring, and her black hair was casually tied up, with her black hair hanging down on her shoulders, making her skin look even whiter than snow. Her red lips were like fire and blood, adding a bit of coolness.

"The Fire Spirit couple of the Infinite Earth Fire Demon Cave greet the two ladies."

The two sisters of the Xiao family followed their father in the past and had interacted with this old couple before, so naturally they would not be cold-hearted at this time and would return the greetings appropriately.

During the dinner, they talked about the recent situation of Huang Longzi and Madam Baoxiang. Xiao Yuhong just replied:

"My parents are currently in seclusion."

At this banquet, Qingyu Taoist Palace gave great honor to True Lord Huoling and his wife. When they left, the couple expressed their gratitude profusely.

Lord Lu's statement this time is enough to save them countless troubles.

However, in another aspect, Chi Yang's tribulation was hundreds of times more influential than that of the Huo Ling couple.

It is not difficult to investigate that Lu Cheng was born in the Palace of the Incarnation of All Beasts in the Tongxuan Realm. This sect is famous for its beast-taming skills, but few cultivators in the world know what the natal spirit beast of this god is.

Now I know:
It turned out to be an ancient fire dragon. Lord Lu traveled across the world, but no one knew about this. This meant that most of the cultivators who had seen this ancient fire dragon were dead.

If an ordinary cultivator in the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation had a seventh-order natal spirit beast to protect him, cultivators in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation would not be willing to provoke him easily.

And how many late-stage Jindan cultivators are there in the entire mortal world?
Therefore, even if this Lord Lu only has the magic power of the initial stage of transformation, combined with his natal spirit beast, it is already terrifying enough.

He is the most terrifying warrior in the seven realms in the past thousand years.

"I now roughly understand the opportunity that the hidden secret brought me sixty years ago: why cultivating Chi Yang to break through to the God Transformation stage would also bring benefits to me.

Chi Yang escaped from the Jiuli Ding and passed the divine tribulation alone. The cultivators in the world then thought it was my natal spiritual pet. I also took this opportunity to enter the vision of those spiritual cultivators who have practiced for thousands of years. In this way, it won’t be long before an opportunity will come to me.

To put it more bluntly, I didn’t have enough value to win over in the past, but now I do.”
