The Tao comes to all heavens: from the beginning of the Wilderness Period

Chapter 34 People die for wealth, birds die for food

The three treasures were each suspended in mid-air. In the hall, colorful lights flashed randomly for a while, and the treasure light reached the top, making Zhang Heng dazzled.

"This was originally just a training ground for the Zifu monks under the Fuyou Sect. Therefore, there are no earth-level or even heaven-level magic weapons. After all, the Zifu monks can only refine human-level magic weapons. But I took it out These three treasures are far more valuable than ordinary heaven-level magic weapons."

The silver-faced man in white robes paused and then said: "Since the secret realm has been revealed, there may be other destined people coming here after you, so I will not give you all the most precious treasures in my hand. You can only pick one.”

Zhang Heng carefully looked at the three treasures in front of him for a while, and suddenly he had some guesses in his mind. He then smiled and asked, "I wonder what the uses of these treasures are?"

"The first treasure is a protective treasure called the Wanjun Scroll, which was personally refined by the ancient immortal from Shangyang Hou Mansion." The silver-faced man in white robe pointed at the treasure on the far left.

This is a bronze scroll about one foot long, with cloud patterns engraved on it, emitting strange fluctuations.

"After refining this thing and carrying it with you, you can activate its power with just a thought. Once the scroll is unfolded, everything within a thousand feet around you can be immobilized. Even the Taoist Yuan Shen can immobilize it in a short time. There is no way to break free from its bonds.”

"Of course, this treasure can only be used once. After the power in it is used up, the scroll will be shattered."

After listening to the silver-faced white-robed man's introduction, Zhang Heng couldn't help but nod his head and thought to himself: "This immortal from Shangyanghou Mansion can refine such a treasure. His level is so high that no one among the earthly immortals and scattered immortals is likely to be able to refine it." See more."

He had actually seen a similar treasure once before.When Master Lu Hua of the Cangji Sect was dealing with the Demon King Yifan that day, he took out a treasured mirror and just looked at the Demon King, and instantly froze him.

"The second treasure is a wind evil thunder talisman, which was placed in the palace by a supreme elder in the history of Fuyou Sect. This supreme elder knew that he would not be able to survive the 8000-year catastrophe. After his death, There is no tribe, so I spent all my money in exchange for this treasure and left it to the descendants of the sect." The silver-haired man in white robe pointed to an exquisitely carved talisman, with obvious deep admiration in his voice.

"This thing is extremely powerful. Once it is activated, almost all Yuanshen Taoists will die. Even Earth Immortals and Loose Immortals will be seriously injured if they are hit head-on. The only flaw is that it cannot reach far, and the farther it goes, the more it goes out. , the weaker its power becomes, and when it reaches a distance of three hundred feet, it is almost impossible to hurt the enemy."

Zhang Heng was initially surprised by the power of the Wind-Destroying Thunder Talisman, but after thinking about it for a moment, he shook his head and thought: "This is obviously an exaggeration. With this thing alone, I want to threaten Yuan Yuan." I’m afraid the life of a Shinto man is not realistic.”

It should be noted that such a treasure of attack and killing also takes time to activate.If you are facing an enemy, the opponent is likely to stay far away from its attack range.Unless it is a surprise plot or used in conjunction with other means, it will be difficult to achieve any decent results.

The silver-faced man in white robe saw that Zhang Heng seemed to have no interest in this thunder talisman, so he said no more and turned to introduce the last treasure.

"This last treasure, named Xuan Mizhu, is the carrier for cultivating the second soul. Unfortunately, the dozens of souls of the Fuyou Sect in the past generations are not strong enough. Naturally, they cannot use it to cultivate the second soul. Yuan Shen. But there is no doubt about the value of this treasure. Many Yuan Shen Taoists want to get one, but they have no way."

"The second spirit?" Zhang Heng couldn't help but look moved.When he observed the three treasures before, he had already guessed the usefulness of the scrolls and talismans, but he was not sure what kind of treasure this black bead was.Unexpectedly, this so-called Xuan Mizhu is actually a carrier for cultivating the second soul.

The silver-faced man in white robe then explained: "Originally, the Xuan Mizhu was always collected by Taoist Priest Yuanshen of the sect. When Shaoyan clan's Sanxian came to visit, the Supreme Elder knew that the sect was about to die, so he secretly collected it through formations. Some treasures are sent to the secret realm for those who are destined to pick them up, including this treasure."

Zhang Heng nodded secretly and thought to himself: "The Supreme Elder of Fuyou Sect back then was a decisive person. If he didn't give away the treasure, I'm afraid it would be taken away by the Sanxian of Shaoyan clan."

Of course he knows what the second spirit is. This is almost common knowledge among practitioners.Unfortunately, it is extremely rare among Yuanshen Taoists to truly possess a second soul.

If you want to cultivate the second soul, you must first find a carrier.After having the carrier, you have to use secret techniques to split your soul into two, half of the soul enters the carrier, and then gradually practice and grow stronger before you can succeed.

This type of carrier is naturally an extremely rare treasure, and once you have the carrier, if you want to have both soul and soul, if your soul is not strong enough, you will be in danger of death.Therefore, generally it is the kind of Yuan Shen Taoist with extremely strong foundation, or the Immortal of Returning to the Void, who can develop the second Yuan Shen.

"I thought the three treasures should be about the same value, but now it seems that this Xuan Mizhu is probably much more valuable than the other two treasures." Zhang Heng sighed secretly.

The silver-faced man in white robes looked at Zhang Heng calmly and said: "Giving treasures as gifts is more than enough. You can only choose one of these three, so choose."

Zhang Heng suddenly fell into thinking.If possible, he would be eager to get it. After all, these treasures are rare treasures.

"In terms of value alone, the Xuan Mizhu is naturally the highest, but I have no need for it in a short period of time. I cannot rush into cultivating the second soul, and this Xuan Mizhu may not be the most suitable carrier. I should wait for it to be worshiped in the future. After entering the sect, take your time to figure it out."

What suits you is the best, Zhang Heng understands this.Therefore, after only a moment of hesitation, he made his decision.

"I choose Wanjun Scroll."

The silver-haired man in white robes said curiously: "I thought you would ask for the Xuan Mizhu. Such treasures that can cause Yuanshen Taoists to fight for are rare and hard to come by. The value is also the highest among the three. Can you Think clearly.”

Zhang Heng just smiled indifferently but did not explain.In fact, he chose this treasure mainly because of its ability to consolidate and suppress, and perhaps he could learn something from it.Even if he doesn't realize much in the end, having a protective treasure close to him will help him feel more calm when facing opponents who are stronger than himself.

Seeing that Zhang Heng had made up his mind, the silver-haired and white-robed man stopped trying to persuade him and immediately handed over the [-]-ton scroll to him.

Then, she whispered: "Pei Yuanqing, your talent exceeds that of anyone in the history of Fuyou Sect. The Yuanshen Taoists of the past generations in the sect still left some practice guidelines in this hall, but these things are only for ordinary Zifu monks. I won’t take you to see it. How far you can go in the future depends on you."

"Now, do you want to practice in this temple for a while longer, or should I send you away directly?"

"Leave?" Zhang Heng shook his head and said, "May I ask the people who entered the secret realm with me, how are they doing?"

"They are still in the test at this time. It can take as short as a few days or as long as half a month before they can see the results." The silver-haired man in white robe said: "The test in the palace was originally set up for the disciples of the Fuyou Sect, so there will be no danger to their lives. .Although I cannot intervene directly, I can observe them through the formation."

After that, she waved her hand, and a screen of light appeared in mid-air. There were more than thirty pieces, and each light screen showed different people.They were either adjusting their breath in place, or were fighting some kind of spirit.However, no one noticed that Zhang Heng and the silver-haired man in white robe were spying on them.

"The monks from the Zifu who came in were all moved to different places by the formation and fought independently? Yes, that's right. It is naturally impossible for the Fuyou Sect to allow the disciples to join forces in the test."

There were only about thirty people in those light curtains at this moment, and Zhang Heng didn't feel surprised at all.There is no life-threatening danger in this hall, but if you step into the territory of those monsters on the way here, you may not be able to escape unscathed.In addition, two people had died in his hands before, and it was difficult to say that other Zifu monks would not fight with each other.He was interested in understanding the methods of other Zifu monks, so he stared at the light curtains for a while.Although he believes that he can easily defeat even the strongest people among them, this does not mean that there is nothing worth learning from these people.

After a moment, Zhang Heng withdrew his gaze and asked, "If I want to leave this secret realm directly, can I do it?"

The silver-faced man in white robe said: "I can only control a few hundred miles outside the main hall and cannot send you out of the secret realm. Since you can break through the outer formation of the secret realm and come here, you must have a way to leave safely. According to the rules, I will not go. Interfere with these.”

Zhang Heng said to himself that it was a pity. It seemed that he would have to wait until a month later before leaving here with the others.

"However, there are many monsters in this secret realm. During this period of time, you can take the initiative to go there and fight with them to try out your moves. Even if it doesn't work, it will still have some tempering effect."

……

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, outside the central hall of the secret realm, a figure suddenly stumbled and fell out, barely able to stand still.This is an old man wearing a red robe. He is thin and ugly, with slumped cheeks and a large bald patch on his forehead. His sparse white hair hangs down on his shoulders, and his eyes are vaguely shining with a faint green energy.

After adjusting his breathing in front of the temple for a while, he quickly returned to his full strength, but his face was still ugly.

"The Fuyou Sect was just an ordinary sect in Shangyang County back then. It may not be any better than my Lan Yue Sect, but the test set was so outrageous. There were ten levels in total, and I couldn't even pass the seventh level. , the treasure obtained is probably not even worth 100 taels of liquid."

The red-robed old man was extremely depressed and said in a hateful voice: "Only after passing the tenth level can you enter the treasure palace and get the real treasure? Bah, I don't believe that there are Zifu realm disciples in Fuyou Sect who can pass this test."

After hesitating on the spot for a while, the red-robed old man changed his mind and said, "This secret realm is so vast, and opportunities may not be found in other places. There may be some treasures in those tree spirits and stone monsters."

"Among the Zifu monks who entered the secret realm this time, some of them have ordinary cultivation. If the treasure falls into their hands, it is considered a hidden secret. If you can find an opportunity to kill a few people, that would be even better. Well, I will do this alone. It’s not safe yet, but once the musician nephew and the others come out, everything will be safe.”

Thinking of this, the old man in red robe suddenly felt that all the bad luck in his chest was gone, and his whole person seemed to be a little more energetic.Then, he walked in a random direction and walked away in high spirits.

On a quiet mountain peak.

The clouds and mist here are hazy and the woods are dense. Two Zifu monks are taking a break in the woods.These two people, a boy and a girl, were obviously twins at a glance. They were both very handsome and distinguished in appearance.

After resting for a moment, the woman frowned slightly and said: "Brother, that tree spirit is too difficult to deal with. With the strength of you and me, I'm afraid there's nothing we can do about it. Why don't we send a message to Mr. Xu and ask him to transfer a few people?" Help comes."

"If we try a few more times, if the summons is sent out, the treasure will no longer be with us." The man had an expression of reluctance on his face, unwilling to give up.

These two people were both monks from the Purple Palace under the city lord's palace. They also obtained a lot of treasures in that palace, but most of the harvest there had to be turned in.Therefore, after they came out and saw that they still had plenty of time, they decided to try their luck in various places in the secret realm.

As a result, they found a lot of treasures in the middle of a mountain, most likely left behind by the disciples of the Fuyou Sect when they came in before.Unfortunately, there was a powerful tree spirit entrenched there. They tried twice in a row, but could not successfully take away the treasure due to the tree spirit's obstruction.

While the two were discussing countermeasures, the man suddenly felt something, and then looked warily at a slope not far away.An old man in red robe appeared there silently, looking at them expressionlessly.

"It's Old Ghost Qi from Lanyue Sect." He said in a trembling voice, his eyes full of shock.

Long before they entered the secret realm, Mr. Tang San had told them that if they met Qi Ze of Lan Yue Sect in the secret realm, they should leave immediately and ask for help from others.He did not dare to delay, and quickly took out a communication treasure, intending to notify other Zifu monks in the City Lord's Mansion.

"Don't waste your efforts. I have set up formations around you. You can't get the message out." Qi Ze, the old man in red robe, walked over grandly, his ugly face full of smiles.

The female cultivator said angrily: "Old ghost Qi, if you dare to take action against us, aren't you afraid that the city lord will personally go to your Lan Yue Sect to settle accounts?"

Qi Ze glanced at her as if she were a fool, then smiled and said, "You two both died at the hands of the spirits in the secret realm. What does it have to do with my Lan Yue Sect?"

The brother and sister communicated quickly with their eyes, and immediately no longer hesitated, choosing to strike first. With a shout, they separated the two sides, one left and one right, and charged towards each other.

"How dare two juniors from the middle stage of the Zifu who are practicing Qi Refining Style take the initiative to take action against me?"

There was a calm look on Qi Ze's face. He moved the fly whisk, and immediately a line of yellow smoke flew out, with a faint image of a ghost in the middle. The howling wind and the dark energy swirled wildly, drowning the two of them in the blink of an eye.

After a while, the mountains and forests became silent again.After counting the harvest on the spot, Qi Ze said with disdain: "Are all the people in the City Lord's Mansion so poor? That's all, let's go find other targets first."

Then, he turned into a phantom and fled through the mountains and forests, traveling quickly.It's just that he deliberately avoided a few Zifu Perfect Gods and Demons. After all, although he was not afraid of each other, fighting with them would make too much noise and would most likely be noticed by others.In addition, the long-haired man following Mr. Xu in the City Lord's Mansion looked extremely untouchable, and he was not sure he could defeat him.

Not long after, Qi Ze stopped on the top of a beautiful mountain.He looked into the distance and raised his eyebrows.On the green mountain ridge, there stood a palace several hundred feet in size. It may have been built by disciples of the Fuyou Sect, but now, the former beauty and majesty have been replaced by withering and dilapidation.

At this moment, under the mountain pavilion outside the palace, a young man in silver armor was sitting there very comfortably. While admiring the mountain scenery, he grabbed a wine gourd and poured it into his mouth, with a look of intoxication on his face. .

After Qi Ze thought for a moment, he gave up taking the initiative to attack the young man.He had a deep impression on this person, and he was a little unsure about the other person's depth.

"This person doesn't seem to have a big background. If I join forces with the Musician Nephew and the others, I will definitely be able to capture him, and maybe we will get a big harvest."

While my mind was spinning, I was about to retreat quietly when I suddenly heard a clear voice: "Fellow Taoist, I have a pot of palace jade wine here. Why are you in such a hurry? Let's have a drink together before leaving."
