What kind of Journey to the West is this?

"hateful!"

Snow Lion yelled and flew out of the cave angrily into the air.

In the cave.

The eagle monster trembled and excreted a large amount of white bird droppings in fear. He almost thought that the snow lion was going to swallow him in one bite.

The female eagle looked at him timidly, covered her nostrils with her wings, gave him a look of contempt, and flew away.

The eagle monster was furious.

What the fuck is going on!

Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly.

In the abandoned land temple on Jingyang Ridge, Yanxia's heart was filled with turbulent emotions.

The five internal organs were in turmoil, constantly producing the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth, which fought and battled against each other. The heart was the strongest, the kidneys the weakest, and the fire energy took over the kidney palace, stirring up the acquired essence in the kidneys and giving rise to all kinds of desires.

The girl's face turned red and white. Her body was wiped clean in Baicaotang. At this time, sweat soaked her clothes, and her white and delicate skin was faintly visible.

When I touched my lower abdomen, my palms felt extremely hot, as if there was a furnace placed in my stomach!

Close your eyes, open your eyes, and the real and unreal worlds gradually come into focus and overlap.

After reciting the Heavenly Heart Sutra forty-five times, An Yanxia recalled the vortex of the five elements from the five directions that she had seen in the Three Heavens Realm, corroborating it with her current situation. Heaven was the cauldron, earth the furnace, all things in heaven and earth were the medicine, and the movement of the five elements was the heat.

A flash of fire illuminated the vast world.

Inside the Niwan Palace, Brother Tongzi transformed into bluestone, motionless. Only occasionally would a piece of broken gold or jade fly and hit the bluestone, sending out a string of sparks.

An Yanxia also sat in the abandoned temple, concentrating and meditating, motionless, like a stubborn stone.

The Shangqing Sect's masters of concentration are said to be able to visualize the celestial constellations within their bodies, with 722 star gods and 84,000 celestial generals above them. As the constellations shift, the sun and moon rotate, wind and thunder surge, the four continents rise, and clouds and rain descend.

At that time, a small world will be opened up in the human body, and the human body will be like the heaven and the earth, which is called "harmony between man and nature."

Outside the temple, there was wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

I don't know how much time passed, the moon rose and set again - rumble! clatter! Heavy rain began to fall outside the temple.

The wind blew back into the tiger's den, and the rain fell like a dragon's pool. The rain poured down from the mountains, and all the beasts in the forest were in panic. Wood spirits, mountain ghosts, wild mice and city foxes all hid in the pits and dense forests.

"Ouch~~~~"

There were sad howls of wolves in the forest. An old wolf with poisonous pus on its back hid in the temple with dim green eyes and saw the delicious piece of meat.

It was an old wolf that was driven out. There was a ferocious tiger pouncing on its prey on Jingyang Ridge, so it didn't dare go there. Therefore, it had to hunt in this forest.

It has been here for four or five days and is so hungry that its eyes are blurry.

I haven’t eaten meat for a long time.

The last time I ate meat was last time.

Until just now, it saw two little girls walking into the temple. To be on the safe side, it did not dare to attack both of them at the same time.

Instead, it waited until An Yanxia was left alone before it secretly set its eyes on this delicious person.

The girl wore a robe with arrow sleeves and cloud-like shape, and stood motionless with her eyes closed and her head facing upwards. There was dust all around her, but she was the only one who looked spotless as the breeze blew around her.

The old wolf stared at An Yanxia as soon as it entered. It sniffed and its shriveled stomach rumbled. The sweet and mellow scent of this little person made it unable to resist.

Especially the hands, feet, and the back of the neck are all exposed, white and tender, and plump and rosy with rouge.

You can bite from behind, first severing the neck to drink a few mouthfuls of hot blood. While the person is still warm, you can then bite the white and tender little feet, which are rich in salty flavor. Then there's the little fat on the belly...

The old wolf swallowed his saliva and moved four or five steps away from the back.

——Pounced on him.

The Mortal World is a Good Place for Cultivation: Chapter 224 [Wolves in Front, Tigers Behind]

The wolf is old!

The teeth are sharp and the claws are sharp!

The old wolf was almost like a black shadow that suddenly flew away, and in the blink of an eye it was about to pounce on An Yanxia's back.

The long, flat wolf's mouth was dripping with saliva, and its sharp, cold fangs were bared, ready to devour raw meat and drink blood.

The moment the two rows of fangs touched the flesh on the back of the neck, the old wolf did not feel the softness and tenderness of fresh human flesh, but instead felt like he had touched some extremely hard stone!

The hard touch made it feel like it was falling into an icy cave.

Click!

When the teeth touched the bone, there was a crisp sound of bones cracking.

The two sharp canine teeth were broken at the roots, leaving a gap and flying backwards.

Is that human being? !

Perhaps the noise startled the girl in front of him, and when the old wolf retreated in fear, he saw her clenching her fists slightly.

"Who will wake up first from the dream? I know it all myself! What a dream it was!"

The clear and ethereal voice uttered had an unreal feeling like the texture of glass.

Although the old wolf was in a blind spot behind her, he clearly felt that the words were directed at him.

An Yanxia's eyes remained motionless as she asked, "How many days has it been?"

The wolf, also old and powerful, actually spoke in a trembling Jeju dialect, "If you count from the time you entered the temple, it's been seven days!"

"You stupid wolf, why are you targeting me?"

"There are tigers on the hills and wolves in the forests. I'm old and frail, so I can't fight them anymore. I have to find another way. My teeth are weak, so I only eat a few bites of dead people's flesh. I haven't hurt anyone, so please don't kill me. The immortals are in seclusion here, so they are bound to be harassed by snakes and insects. I can protect them. I only ask that they give me some dry food."

Yan Xia laughed and said, "If you really want to protect me, why did you bite my neck?"

The old wolf said, "That's because they were extremely hungry. You people are so hungry that you even eat your own people. Isn't it natural for an old wolf to eat people? Now that I have seen the magical powers of the immortals, I only hope that the immortals will take me in. I will never dare to do evil again."

"Ah, if you really want to protect me, why are you backing off?"

The old wolf was shocked. He didn't expect that this immortal had the magical power of five visions and six eyes, and could see it even with his back to him!

The footsteps haven't stopped yet, clang clang!

Two crisp sounds of metal clashing were heard, and the two bronze maces on the ground vibrated, instantly blowing away the dust and fallen leaves on the bedding.

The old wolf said in fear, "Don't kill me! Immortal, I know there's a fairy peach root on Jingyang Ridge that can prolong life! I can take you to find that treasure!"

The bronze mace flew up and hung behind An Yanxia.

An Yanxia's figure swayed and she turned around. On her pale face, a pair of red eyes flashed with intelligence.

She said with emotion: "Do you know that there is a Wenchang star in the sky named Lü Dongbin?"

The old wolf didn't know what An Yanxia was doing, so he whimpered a few times and wagged his tail to show his goodwill.

It looks like an old dog.

Yan Xia said, "I've always envied Lü Dongbin's Sky-Escape Sword Technique. That's my master's specialty. But I never imagined that his flying sword decapitation technique was only a minor skill. His three Heart Swords are his true strength."

"I haven't mastered the Sky Escape Sword Technique. But I have thoroughly comprehended the three Heart Swords."

As Yan Xia spoke, the bull-headed image appeared faintly behind her.

The ox-headed man shook the flaming golden bell and chanted the Heavenly Heart Sutra, and three wisdom swords flew out.

The old wolf crouched on the ground, purring ingratiatingly, "The immortals are truly powerful."

Yan Xia smiled and said, "You said there's a fairy peach root on Jingyang Ridge."

The old wolf flattered him, "That was accidentally dropped down from the Heavenly Palace by a demon king when he was causing trouble in the Peach Garden five hundred years ago. Although it lacks the nourishment of heavenly water and soil and is less potent, it is still a spiritual root that can prolong life. I will be the immortal family's guardian and lead them to find that spiritual root!"

Yan Xia said, "Then why don't you take it? You're almost dying of old age."

Old Wolf subconsciously took a step back.

"I'm afraid it's not that I don't want to do it, but that I'm driving the tiger to devour the wolf."

Yan Xia smiled and blocked his retreat.

The old wolf tucked in its tail, growled and panted a few times, and was about to run away.

"I forgot to tell you. The three swords, one, cut off the ignorant love and desire, two, cut off the ignorant greed, and three, cut off the ignorant anger."

A wise sword flashed with a cold light and pierced Yan Xia's heart.

clank!

The bronze mace flew up and hit the old wolf's waist.

Just a smash——"Ahhh~~Ahhh~~~"

This old wolf couldn't stand being beaten, and it fell silent after barking a few times.

Over there, An Yanxia's face regained some color, and the two wisdom swords were still circling around her.

...................

...................

In the sky, three gods were chatting and laughing while drinking on the dark clouds.

Once the wine glass is spilled, it turns into a pouring rain.

Laughing loudly will cause thunder to roll on the ground.

Only Jiang Banxia and the old Dragon King who controls the clouds and rain are worried.

The old Dragon King, his body tied with ropes, angrily yelled at Jiang Banxia, "You're stopping me from sending rain! This is a violation of Heaven's law!"

Jiang Banxia was speechless. "Isn't it raining? Anyway, the result is right. Dragon King, this is not my fault. Why are you scolding me?"

She pointed to the three immortals behind her and said, "Marshal Zhao has done it too."

The old Dragon King immediately lost his temper, but he really couldn't understand why these gods didn't practice cultivation and insisted on stopping him from making it rain!

Zhao Gongming, with his sharp eyes, saw a ray of yang energy rising from beneath the clouds and clapped his hands, saying, "Good, we've passed!"

Lü Dongbin was surprised and asked, "You have escaped the disaster so quickly?"

Zhongli Quan smiled but said nothing. Zhao Gongming took a closer look and suddenly froze, puzzled, "Why isn't this a love tribulation?"

As he expected, An Yanxia was doomed to a love disaster.

As for the reason for the disaster, he also roughly understood it - the root cause was actually in him.

He originally asked for a golden elixir from the Tushita Palace with the intention of encouraging An Yanxia.

But the golden elixir itself has the function of locking the Yuan Yang, which directly helped An Yanxia skip the stage of locking the Yuan Yang. After the water and food were filled, she reached the realm of "Subduing the White Tiger" in one step.

The four steps of refining essence, opening up all meridians, refining water and grain, locking Yuan Yang, and subduing the White Tiger, are an overall process.

When food and drink are plentiful, desire naturally arises. The saying "when you are well fed and warm, you think about sex" is commonplace. However, if desire becomes excessive and turns into lust, it will harm both yourself and others. Lust is the most damaging of these, and it is the most damaging to the body.

Therefore, the next step is to "lock the Yuan Yang" and subdue desire. As one practices the Dao, one gradually reduces excessive desires. As lust decreases, one's Dao heart becomes more pronounced. This Dao heart is also known as the "White Tiger." At this point, one returns to their original state, the "True Man."

The golden elixir helps one skip a certain realm, but it cannot improve one’s character.

Therefore, once the golden elixir is lost, lust will take over and disaster will come.

Although this disaster was partly due to An Yanxia's own neglect of cultivation, tracing back to the root cause, it was this golden elixir that was the hindrance.

That's why Zhao Gongming was so diligent in helping An Yanxia to face the disaster.

But he was surprised: "It wasn't a love disaster! But I almost got lost in the countless miles of Ganges sand, and I almost couldn't see the difference between truth and illusion."

Jiang Banxia asked curiously, "Is there any difference?"

"The difference is huge. It's hard to say at the moment, but fortunately she has made it through..."

"I don't think so."

Zhongli Quan suddenly interrupted, "If she had truly overcome the tribulation and revealed her Dao heart, she should have been preparing the White Tiger Revitalizing Pill by now. But right now, she's still at the stage of refining essence and knowing destiny, and hasn't yet entered the realm of human immortality. Perhaps the tribulation isn't over yet."

Jiang Banxia scratched his head and asked, "Then Master Zhong, are you saying there's still another calamity?"

Zhongli Quan and Lu Dongbin looked at each other and laughed.
