Chapter 95: Sixth-grade elixir, completion of the ancestral temple

Amid the screams of Yu Que and other students, the five teachers looked up with smiles on their faces.

Some of them even showed expressions of nostalgia.

Meng Laogui laughed and scolded: "You are all cowards. Anyway, you are blessed by the luck of the country today and you will not die. Just open the temple with peace of mind."

Teacher Zhu also responded with a smile:

"Brother Meng, weren't we both embarrassed in the past?"

When Meng Laogui heard this, he laughed even louder and shook his head and said:

"It's embarrassing, but it's better than not being able to bear it and taking anesthetics. By then, the pain won't be so painful, but you will definitely regret it afterwards."

It turns out that not all students were ignorant about the painful things they were facing such as sky burial. Many of them had already been reminded by their elders at home, so they prepared drugs that could numb their minds and bodies.

Just listening to the conversation between Zhu Jiaoyu and others, once this kind of medicine is used, the effect of sky burial will be greatly reduced, which is a practice of reducing one's own potential.

If Yu Que and other poor students knew this, they would surely understand. No wonder among the students who dared to come to Tianzang, the number of those who were admitted with guidance was greater than those who were admitted to the county school.

But at least at the beginning, all the students were working hard, trying to use the true fire to squeeze out the potential of their body and spirit.

Yu Que was impaled on the bone stake. He felt a burning sensation all over his body and it hurt even when the wind blew on him.

But unfortunately, a group of wronged souls surrounded him, salivating over his energy and blood, and spewing out breaths of evil wind, "licking" his entire body.

As a result, he felt even more miserable and even had some thoughts of committing suicide, thinking that it would be better to die early than to live later.

But it was strange that even though he was being burned by the real fire and surrounded by ghosts, his blood and energy seemed to be endless and could not be burned out.

The higher his fever, the more excited he became.

When he became numb, Yu Que came to his senses and found that his whole body was wrapped in the scent of incense. The rich incense even penetrated into his bones and soul.

Every time a wisp of qi and blood is burned, ten points of incense scent will be burned along with it.

He also keenly discovered that the burned qi and blood did not disappear completely, but after being inhaled and exhaled by the true fire, a more refined breath was spit back into his body.

In this way, as the Qi and blood circulate repeatedly, what is actually consumed is the inexhaustible incense from the surrounding areas.

Realizing this, Yu Que felt completely relieved!
"With the blessing of incense, there is basically no danger to life when opening the temple this time, and the foundation will not be damaged."

He struggled and looked at his intestines that were poked out and burning like a wick.

Yu Que indeed discovered that although the intestines were charred, the vitality inside was not completely destroyed.

He also noticed that although the bone pile under his body broke his abdomen, it unexpectedly avoided other internal organs.

In this way, even if the intestines are really burned, the worst that can be done is to cut off a piece, and then sew it up and use it again.

I understand that today's "torture" is indeed just to bring out the potential of everyone.

Yu Que immediately broke out in sweat and gritted his teeth to stop himself from howling in shame.

At the same time, he began to use the Ganoderma lucidum that he had planted on his body long ago, and let it be refined by the true fire as a "sacrifice" for today's temple opening.

Then, as his body trembled, strands of pitch-black fungus mysteriously grew out from the wound on his abdomen, climbed upwards via the bone piles, and actively extended their roots into the true fire.

As a result, a scene occurred that caught Yu Que off guard.

As soon as the Ganoderma lucidum was added, the snake-shaped true fire was stimulated. Suddenly, it stopped burning obediently on the bone pile and instead excitedly drilled into his body, heading straight for his heart.

hiss!
This time, Yu Que, who had just clenched his teeth, suddenly brought trouble upon himself and couldn't help but let out a scream, which sounded extremely shrill.

However, his movement was still nothing compared to the surrounding ones.

Because among the students who were performing the sky burial, some had already taken out the offerings they had prepared for the opening of the temple, and were either holding them in their mouths or wearing them on their bodies, and so on.

As soon as these items were taken out, waves of precious light surged, stimulating the true fire.

As the wisps of true fire jumped, it swallowed the sacrifice in one gulp, and then refined the living people and the sacrifice together, causing everyone to suffer even more!

among them.

The roots of the Ganoderma lucidum that were spread throughout the remaining flesh and bones were burned up by the true fire in just a few breaths.

The body of the Ganoderma lucidum - a tumor that looked like a ghost's face, also let out a scream even more miserable than Yu Que himself, releasing bursts of ghostly and sinister energy.

But soon, this thing melted completely into Yu Que's body like ice, without any trouble.

And the bursts of ghost energy it released, after being swallowed and chewed by the true fire, were returned to Yu Que one by one, becoming streams of "medicinal power" to nourish his body and soul.

It was under the influence of this medicine that Yu Que's flesh, blood, and soul not only became purer, but also began to undergo strange changes.

If it were only this step, the changes in Yu Que's body would actually be no different from those of other candidates, and he might even be inferior to them.

Because the blood of those candidates who came from aristocratic families, under the stimulation of the true fire, underwent all kinds of changes that were like reversion to their ancestral roots. Scales, hair, fangs and all kinds of things began to grow on their flesh, and their aura was inhuman, more like that of a ferocious beast.

This scene is the "spiritual veins" in the bodies of the children of noble families, which are being revealed.

Fortunately, although Yu Que had no spiritual veins in his body, the "medicinal power" left after the Ganoderma lucidum melted was too abundant and was washing over his body over and over again, and could not be consumed.

After the true fire burned the medicinal properties once, it also burned them a second and third time.

When the medicinal power of the Ganoderma lucidum was calcined three times, a little bit of spiritual light emerged from it, giving rise to a different kind of aura.

This breath was extremely pure, seeming to be there and not there. The moment it appeared, Yu Que's entire body trembled and he cheered.

Even the teachers who had been standing by and watching with cold eyes noticed something. Their spiritual consciousness began to waver and their eyes immediately fell on Yu Que.

"Spiritual energy has flourished so quickly. Has this boy's spiritual vein awakened successfully?"

"Hey, it's this boy! Does he also have a spiritual vein?"

The five oracles soon realized the truth:
"No, the spiritual energy is rich! It's not that this boy's blood is flourishing, but that he is carrying a genuine spiritual object, and the spiritual energy is forced out!"

In an instant, in addition to surprise, greed and regret appeared in the eyes of several teachers.

For example, the Mengshan ghost said to Master Zhu with a look of pity:
"Xiao Zhu, your disciple is not a simple person. He has at least a sixth-grade treasure hidden in his body. I don't know how he was able to restrain his spiritual energy and hide it from us."

Although Yu Que's Ganoderma lucidum is not of the sixth grade, after being raised by him, its essence is extremely profound. After being refined by true fire, it is not only of the sixth grade but also better than the sixth grade.

Among them was Lan Jiaoyu, who was from the lineage of Lord Yao Wang. She looked straight at Yu Que and made a judgment based on Yu Que's performance:

"This treasure should not be an antique, but a magical medicine!"

He murmured again, "When did a spiritual medicine of this quality appear in the Seventh Workshop? And it just happened to fall into the hands of Zhu Daoyou's student." Zhu, the teacher standing by, was stunned for a moment, but there was no greed in his eyes. He just laughed and said:

“Haha, no wonder this guy asked me how to open a spirit temple right after he opened his mouth. I didn’t expect that he wasn’t just arrogant, but actually possessed some rare treasures!”

Amid the discussion, another teacher frowned and suddenly said to Teacher Lan:
"Sister Lan, is the spiritual medicine this child is carrying a Ganoderma? Is it the Ganoderma species?"

Teacher Lan was reminded. She suddenly closed her eyes slightly and sniffed the scent coming from Yu Que through the air.

The man was surprised and said, "The medicinal gas is condensed but not astringent, yet it has a faint smell of decay. It is indeed the medicinal gas that will be emitted when refining the spiritual medicine of the Ganoderma lucidum."

She looked at the teacher in surprise again: "Could it be that the elixir in this boy's hand was given by Sister Red Snake?"

That’s right, the person who frowned and spoke at this moment was Madam Red Snake.

When the woman heard Teacher Lan's question, her expression changed and she did not respond.

When the other teachers heard this, they suddenly realized something and reminded Teacher Nalan:

"Friend Lan, have you forgotten? The elixir that the top of this year's list obtained from the ghost exam was a Ganoderma lucidum."

At this moment, all the teachers suddenly understood where the spiritual objects that Yu Que was using to open the temple came from.

Some people clapped their hands suddenly and said in regret:
"I didn't expect that after Xue Zheng dug out the ghost chestnut spiritual root, the remaining scraps would actually have such spiritual energy."

"Spiritual objects are self-defeating. If I had known this earlier, I would have gone and dug it up first."

Mrs. Red Snake heard the mutterings of her colleagues, and her face immediately showed an expression as if she had suffered a great loss.
Because the others were just sighing that Yu Que had missed out on such a good thing, while her heart was bleeding, regretting that she had missed out on this thing.

"How despicable! If I had been more ruthless at that time, I would have directly snatched the jar and cut the Ganoderma Lucidum. Even if this thing is a spiritual object, it would have been discovered by me."

Miss Red Snake was getting more and more unwilling to miss out on such a sixth-grade spiritual object. She wished she could go forward right then and there and dig out the spiritual medicine that should have belonged to her from Yu Que's body.

However, someone at the scene noticed that something was wrong with her. He moved his body and stood in front of the woman, covering the remaining part completely.

This person is none other than Teacher Zhu.

Teacher Zhu turned his head to look at the red snake and smiled coldly.

Although she didn't know that Hongshe and Yuque had had a conflict during the ghost exam, this did not prevent her from noticing that something was wrong. She stood up to protect her students and reminded Madam Hongshe.

When Madam Red Snake saw this, her expression froze. She suppressed her hatred in time and looked at the other students as if nothing had happened.

Time continues to pass.

Suddenly, when noon arrived, the real fire on the sky burial platform became extremely fierce, and the screams of many students reached a climax again.

Finally, someone couldn't bear it anymore and stuffed the anesthetic in his sleeve into his mouth.

Among them, there were two students who were not pierced by the bone stakes. They rolled on the ground in pain and crawled out in a panic.

As soon as they left the nine-foot range of the bird bones, the true fire in their bodies was automatically withdrawn and the pain was alleviated.

Then the two of them lay outside like dead dogs, gasping for breath and groaning.

None of the five teachers present at the scene even glanced at the two useless people. They just continued to watch Yu Que and others open the temple.

When everyone's condition stabilized and their breathing was completely back to normal, a teacher left the sky burial platform on his own to take care of the students who were thrown outside the crematorium.

Among the five teachers, Teacher Zhu was the last to leave.

Because she deliberately waited until Madam Red Snake left, and also bowed to Mr. Qing, the doorman in charge of the place, before leaving the sky burial platform.

After the teachers left, Yu Que and other students continued to hang on the bone stakes, being tortured by ghosts and spirits.

Some people even accidentally bit off their tongues while struggling, but even with a broken tongue, they had no choice but to continue suffering on the bone piles.

Only those children of noble families who carry anesthetics can relieve the pain.

Soon, the first day passed.

On this day, there were only two people who did not have the bone-piercing stakes. They overestimated themselves, could not endure it, and left immediately.

On the second day, three more people could not bear it and chose to leave the sky burial ground on their own. At this point, all the students who were not impaled on the bone stakes were eliminated.

There were seven others who were unable to continue running the temple due to insufficient energy or mental weakness.

Unable to leave on their own, they fainted on the bone pile and were eventually taken down by the doorman, Mr. Qing, and thrown outside.

By the third day, the opening of the temple had finally reached a critical point.

On this day, no one failed and left, and compared to the beginning, everyone's aura had undergone a drastic change.

Many of them even began to actively inhale and exhale the rich scent of incense around them, taking it into their bodies.

Such signs show that they have already opened up the ancestral temple!
For example, Yu Que.

At midnight on the third night, he felt his soul shaking, his five senses lost, and his mind fell into darkness.

But then, a tiny light suddenly jumped out from the darkness.

This light was round, bright, and extremely mysterious, and it gave Yu Que a rare sense of peace in his torment.
When he gradually came back to his senses from his trance, he found that his soul had left his body and was in a mysterious space with wisps of incense surging around him.

This space is not big, it is grey and only three feet high.

But its appearance made Yu Que feel joy from the bottom of his heart, as if he finally had a place to settle down in the world without having to suffer from wind and rain.

This space is exactly where Yu Que’s spiritual platform is.

However, it has not yet taken shape. It is too light and there are wisps of gray air moving around Yu Que's Yin Spirit, sometimes forming an umbrella, sometimes forming a cauldron, changing in thousands of ways, trying to condense and fix itself.

Yu Que remembered what to do specifically when opening a temple, so under the urging of his thoughts, the gray air squirmed, slowly gathered into a ball, and transformed into a building.

at last.

With a humming sound, a small shrine temple was successfully born in the darkness.

As soon as it solidified, it firmly occupied Yu Que's entire spiritual platform, encircled his Yin Spirit, and also quickly drew in the cat-faced family spirit in his body.

This shrine and temple is the ancestral temple opened by Yu Que!

Today, after years of hard work and study, he has finally been able to open a ancestral temple and officially entered the ranks of the ninth-grade immortals.

From now on, he Yu Que can absorb incense, polish his soul, nourish his spirit and feed ghosts, and go straight to the path of immortality!
