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

Chapter 51
Among the contemporary true disciples of Cangji Sect, there are less than twenty who can pass the ninth floor of Dongyuan Tower.In terms of the state of enlightenment, Zhang Heng is no worse than some of them, or even worse.But after all, his cultivation level is too low. The body refining of gods and demons is only at the perfect level of Zi Mansion, and the air flow refining is only at the early stage of Wanxiang. The foundation is inferior to those senior brothers and sisters who have perfected Wanxiang.

Even though he has excellent swordsmanship, profound magical powers, and some understanding of the secret knowledge taught by Immortal Bai Wei, the strength he can exert at this moment is only comparable to that of ordinary Yuanshen Taoists. Compared with the top masters such as Master Lu Hua and Master Su Yi, There is still a certain gap between the true disciples and the reincarnated immortals who have practiced for more than a hundred years.

"From the ninth level to the tenth level of the Scarlet Bright Nine Heavens Diagram, this is a huge leap, and it must be assisted by the lunar star and the sun star. It has only been a few months since I refined the body of gods and demons and achieved the perfection of the Zifu. I think To achieve a breakthrough, it will take at least two or three years of accumulation.”

"As for refining Qi flow, if you refine Yuan liquid to improve your cultivation level, it will cost tens of thousands of kilograms of Yuan liquid just to cultivate to the perfection of all phenomena. In the future, wouldn't it take hundreds of thousands of kilograms to break through to the Yuanshen Taoist?"

Zhang Heng has already made up his mind.

In fact, even within the Cangji Sect, most Wanxiang Daoists and even Yuanshen Taoists accumulate Yuan Power by slowly refining the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth.It is actually a bit wasteful to simply rely on refining Yuan liquid to improve your cultivation. Only a very small number of elders and disciples with extremely rich wealth will not care.

However, Zhang Heng is different from other Wanxiang masters. The Wanxiang Dharma he cultivated is extremely miraculous. He can communicate with heaven and earth at a deeper level and borrow the vitality between heaven and earth to maintain himself.One year of practicing purely on his own strength is equivalent to the effect of refining thousands of kilograms of Yuan liquid. Even without the help of Yuan liquid, in less than ten years, he can accumulate enough Yuan power to break through the perfection of all things.

At this stage, what is more important to him is to understand the sword canon and secret magic powers. After all, realm is the foundation.If one can use Immortal Baiwei's unique skills to get started with the practice of Taiji Dao, or one can further understand the realm of Dao in the way of swordsmanship, he will be more confident in facing the battle at Lun Dao Peak five years later.

"There are still five years left, so there is no rush. After passing the ninth floor of the Dongyuan Tower, we will continue to clean up for a while, and then go out to travel and explore, and also go back to the Eastern Wasteland Plains to have a look."

The path of spiritual practice is essentially a struggle with heaven and earth. If you keep practicing hard in seclusion, no matter how high your qualifications are, it will be difficult to achieve anything.Therefore, many true disciples of the Cangji Sect often take on sect missions at the Foreign Affairs Peak, and some true disciples choose to join the Yinglong Guard, both to hone themselves and to earn training resources.

Zhang Heng walked out of the quiet room, stood outside the hall and glanced at the mountains. Then he swung his sleeves and turned into a rapid stream of light and flew towards the Dongyuan Tower.

……

The ninth floor of Dongyuan Tower.

If the Zifu monks come here, the opponents they need to deal with are some puppets at the level of perfection, and those puppets can also use joint attack formations with each other.If Wanxiang Zhenren wants to break through this level, he only needs to defeat a puppet, but his strength is comparable to that of ordinary Yuanshen Perfect Taoist.

It is relatively common for the Zifu monks to cross the ranks and defeat Wanxiang Zhenren, and many ordinary disciples of the Cangji Sect can do it.But Wanxiang Zhenren wants to surpass Taoist Yuan Shen?The difficulty would be much higher, and only the top few among the true disciples had this ability.

"The strength of the ninth-level puppet is still lacking compared to that of the Taoist Priest Yuanshen who has been cultivating for many years. Its spiritual intelligence is not very high, but its strength is strong, and it is almost as good as a heaven-level magic weapon."

Zhang Heng had already learned about it from other senior brothers and sisters, so he also had a lot of ideas on how to deal with the puppet on the ninth floor of Dongyuan Tower.

At this time, he was standing at a high altitude and looking down. He could clearly see the outline of a huge human face emerging from the ground and slowly rising upwards. The sand and stones on it were peeling off, and then there was a figure of more than ten people. A head about ten feet in size came out of it.

It can be seen that this puppet has three pairs of eyes on its face, but no mouth, nose or ears. It is said that it was created by the master of the Mo clan's puppet group based on some powerful ancient gods and demons.Therefore, the fighting style of this puppet is like that of a god and demon, straight forward. Even those top figures among the true disciples who have cultivated the Nine Heavens Map of Chiming to the 12th level can only fight with it head-on and close by using their magical powers.

Soon, it pulled its body completely out of the ground, and it turned out to be a silver giant nearly a hundred feet tall.The moment the puppet giant saw Zhang Heng, he couldn't help but raise his face and seemed to roar silently. Then he raised his huge arms and punched the direction where Zhang Heng was standing.

Zhang Heng's mind moved, and the power of the law gathered into a round shield, and expanded far away, blocking the fist of the puppet giant in the middle.Without waiting for another punch to arrive, he used his escape technique and jumped up, already above the opponent's head.

Along with the phantom in the Dharma behind him, he took a palm shot, and a lot of solid earth-yellow air flow suddenly surged out from the surroundings, hitting the puppet giant.The giant's body shook involuntarily, and its original offensive came to an abrupt end, but that was all. Zhang Heng's attack did not cause any damage to it.

The body of this kind of puppet is almost as strong as a heaven-level magic weapon, and even the top loose immortals can hardly really hurt its body.However, the power attached to the puppet is very limited. If its power can be exhausted, it will be considered as passing this level. In the past, the disciples who broke into the Cave Abyss Tower also did this.

After this blow, light seemed to flash in the giant puppet's eyes, and then it left the ground with a bang, flew upwards, and then punched Zhang Heng in the air.A more violent force than before rushed out, making a dull sound like thunder, and the ground beneath his feet shook violently.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Heng smiled indifferently, flicked his sleeves, and unleashed the mighty power of the Dharma. In an instant, countless sand and flying rocks rolled up on the ground, and then gathered together in one place, forming a huge formation in the blink of an eye. A hill more than a hundred feet high suppressed the giant heavily.

This is the secret skill taught by Immortal Bai Wei, and Zhang Heng currently has the deepest understanding of the secret method of Tu Xing Yi, so he can use this puppet to verify it and test the true power of this method.

When the hill fell, its force was more than a million. There were only a few "bang bang" sounds, and the giant puppet's arm shook violently. The body was knocked away for more than ten miles, and it could hardly stand when it landed on the ground.Even though its body was strong and not damaged, a lot of the strength contained in its body was consumed in order to block the blow.

Zhang Heng saw this scene from a high place and his eyes flickered slightly.How powerful his soul was, he instantly judged that if he used such powerful and heavy moves to fight against the puppet giant, even with his powerful divine power and Yuanli, he would not be able to defeat his opponent.After all, activating the Five Elements Secret Technique consumes a lot of money on him, and it cannot be used as a regular method yet.

So he quickly controlled the flying sword and displayed the third level sword technique of the Langxia Sword Canon. He slashed it with just one sword and divided it into 36 rays of sword light. With the blessing of the power of the Dharma, a brilliant light flew back and forth. He galloped and slashed towards the puppet giant, leaving long and thin traces in the air.

If a Yuanshen Taoist who refines the Qi Flow is here, he will either activate the magic weapon to restrain the sword light, or he will choose to use the Heavenly Water and Yuan Fire that he has accumulated to limit the power of the sword, and he will never dare to let it strike him. of.But this kind of puppet like a god and demon didn't have so many scruples. When the giant saw the sword light coming, not only did he not dodge, but he rushed straight forward as if he was angered.At this time, Zhang Heng could see that the silver light on the giant puppet seemed to be impacted by the tide, rising and falling, bright and dark.Whenever some parts of its body dimmed under the sword light, it would soon be covered with light again, and even the damaged parts would be quickly healed and repaired as before.

He retreated a little further, without giving the puppet below a chance to react, and charged up his strength again. The flying sword in the air buzzed and trembled, and many rays of light flickered, and then he slashed with another sword.As his understanding of the metal element among the five elements deepens, the power of the same swordsmanship moves becomes somewhat greater than before.

"If I could master the confinement method in the Five Elements Mending Sky Seal, I could easily control this puppet, so why bother?" Zhang Heng thought to himself, "Unfortunately, I have to at least be introduced to the Taiji Dao before I can hope to practice that. A secret method."

With the swordsmanship he used at this moment, although he could force the puppet giant to mobilize the power in his body for protection, it was not that easy to completely defeat this puppet.

……

After half a stick of incense, Zhang Heng's figure disappeared from the Dongyuan Tower and was teleported back to the cave above the Dongyuan Tower.

At this time, a short and fat old man was waiting here. He was the magic weapon spirit of Dongyuan Tower. He said with a smile: "Little master, congratulations on successfully passing the test of the ninth level. Among this generation of true disciples, you are You are No. 17 who passed the test, and the elders stationed here have informed Cangji Palace to assign two thousand merit points to your name."

Even though Zhang Heng was reserved on the face, he was slightly proud of himself. After all, being able to achieve this step meant that his actual combat power at this moment was not weak among Yuanshen Taoists.

He cupped his hands and said: "Senior Dongyuan, if I am free in the future, I will still come here often to cause trouble. Please bear with me."

The short and fat old man said: "If you want to try your hand at the ninth floor again, you can do so at any time. In my opinion, within a few years, you will be able to leave your name on the stone tablet."

Zhang Heng shook his head and did not continue on this topic.Except for Senior Brother Xuan Yu who has abdicated, there are only four true disciples in the current generation who are qualified to leave their names on the cave stone tablets.The strength of these few people is probably comparable to that of many Yuanshen Perfection Taoists in Shangyang County who have practiced for more than a thousand years.

"If there is no major breakthrough in my realm of enlightenment, I can only have the absolute confidence to outperform Lu Hua, Su Yi and other senior brothers and sisters by raising my cultivation of Qi Flow to the perfection of all phenomena."

Zhang Heng did not stay in the cave for long. After recovering a little, he returned to his dojo.In order to defeat the puppet giant this time, he spent most of his Yuan energy. If he hadn't gained a lot from studying the secret knowledge taught by Immortal Baiwei in the past half month, would he have been able to successfully pass the ninth floor of Dongyuan Tower? Can be between.

While he was flying away, he suddenly raised his head and saw a figure flying straight towards him in the air.Soon, a tall woman wearing a long white dress appeared in front of him.

This woman has a delicate appearance, her clothes are spotless, like a white lotus isolated in the world, her eyes are clear, without any impurities. She looked over quietly and said: "Junior Brother Taiheng, I was going to your dojo to find you. Yes, I don’t want to meet you here in advance.”

"It turns out to be Senior Sister Yanhong." Zhang Heng was startled when he heard this, then smiled calmly and said, "I wonder why Senior Sister is looking for me?"

As far as he knew, Yan Hong was also a very famous figure among the true disciples, but this was not because of her great strength.He has been practicing for decades, and his strength can only be regarded as middle-class among the true disciples of Cangji Sect. Perhaps he is not as good as the master of Black Dragon City, Xu Kun, whom Zhang Heng had met before.

She is famous mainly because she is a Taoist companion of Master Xinglan.This Master Xinglan is the eldest among the five reincarnated immortals in the sect and has been practicing for more than 300 years. One can imagine his strength.

Master Yan Hong said: "Junior brother Taiheng, in ten days, senior brother Xinglan will entertain the true disciples who are currently staying in the sect at a banquet on Lundao Peak. He specifically asked me to invite you, junior brother, and also I hope my junior brother can honor me and go to the appointment when the time comes."

Zhang Heng nodded and said with a smile: "Since Senior Brother Xinglan has spoken, I will definitely come next time."

Master Yan Hong looked calm, casually said a few words to Zhang Heng, and then left.

"Master Xinglan can just entertain other true disciples on his own mountain peak, so why invite others to Lundao Peak?"

Zhang Heng thought to himself: "It seems that this reincarnated immortal has regarded the position of chief disciple as his own. It is called a banquet, but in fact he is promoting this matter to other true disciples. It is so prestigious. .”

He didn't take this to heart and continued flying towards his dojo.Other true disciples may have great respect for Master Xinglan, but Zhang Heng looks down upon him.

Senior Brother Xuanyu once commented on this Master Xinglan to him, saying that he was just a person who "feared the strong to bully the weak and acted according to the wind."Master Xinglan also participated in the Immortal Fate Conference a hundred years ago, but when he encountered an invincible genius, he did not even dare to fight and gave in directly, causing the headmaster Yucheng Immortal to lose a lot of face in the capital of Daxia. .

"Senior Brother Xinglan may have only a limited amount of cultivation, but inside, he may not be as good as an ordinary true disciple who is hopeful and determined."

"Let alone overcoming the tribulation and becoming an immortal in this life, it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to regain the achievements of his previous life. It is only because he has practiced long enough that he surpassed Senior Sister Yuechen and others."
