Chapter 4: Fake Madman, Real Madman
The biggest difference between immortal objects and semi-immortal objects is that immortal objects have spirits.
For example, there is an immortal object in Taoism called "Seven Birds and Five Fire Fan", which has been stored in Kunlun Cave Heaven. It actually gave birth to spirits, can transform into humans, dress up as Taoist nuns, and can control the original immortal object by itself, which is very mysterious.
Although this kind of immortal object is only a minority of the minority, and most immortal objects cannot become humans, it is undeniable that immortal objects have spirits.
Spirituality will choose the master and recognize the master. In the words of Confucianism, the king chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the king.
"The Male and Female Swords of the Heavenly Master" is no exception. When the Zhang family ancestor and the earth master Xu Zu ascended together on the Kunlun Cave Heaven Ascension Platform, the "Male and Female Swords of the Heavenly Master" left behind returned to the Great Immortal Mansion by themselves. This is spirituality.
Strictly speaking, the owner of the "Male and Female Swords of the Heavenly Master" is not Qi Xuansu or Zhang Yuelu, but the Heavenly Master Zhang Wushou.
It was the Heavenly Master who lent the "Male and Female Swords of the Heavenly Master" to the two for use. If necessary, the Heavenly Master can take it back at any time. Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu have no power and ability to object at all. This is also the main reason why Qi Xuansu wants to exchange for "Pure Bodhi". He can only feel at ease when using his own things.
This is Zhang Yuelu's idea: "The Heavenly Master's Male and Female Sword" is the immortal item of the Heavenly Master. It must have a mysterious connection with the Heavenly Master. It would be fine in normal times, but the key is that Izanagi has the status of a god. His evil fire not only covers Qi Xuansu, but also covers the "Heavenly Master's Male and Female Sword".
A god uses the magical evil fire to burn the "Heavenly Master's Male and Female Sword". This is not a small fight to kill a god. The Heavenly Master will inevitably feel and react.
The evil fire is getting more and more fierce. Under the burning of the evil fire, the "Heavenly Master's Male and Female Sword" flickers, and the blue and purple light flows unsteadily.
As soon as the broken hand grasped Qi Xuansu, Qi Xuansu's Dharma body had collapsed. As a god inheritance, the magical power of the Dharma body is almost broken when it is touched by a high-level existence. On the contrary, the means of other inheritances do not have such an obvious restraint relationship. Fortunately, Qi Xuansu was not a witch, but a post-natal exiled immortal. He lost the means of immortal inheritance, and there were other inheritances. He himself did not collapse like the Dharma body.
Qi Xuansu's expression became more and more distorted, and the fire in his eyes became more and more vigorous.
Whether the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" is powerful or not has a great relationship with the host's realm and cultivation. It itself will not be affected by the evil fire, but in order to help Qi Xuansu resist the evil fire, it can only continuously extract Qi Xuansu's divine power.
Soon, the divine power in Qi Xuansu's body had dropped to two thousand ke. Fortunately, it was just a broken hand. If it was Izanagi in a normal state, this divine power would be consumed in an instant.
However, the situation in Qi Xuansu's body is still deteriorating. Just like the war between two countries, Qi Xuansu keeps losing cities and lands, and retreats step by step.
The external manifestation is that there are more and more scorch marks on Qi Xuansu's body, and cracks appear on the scorch marks, like the texture of talismans, with dark red light shining through them.
The voice that directly acted on Qi Xuansu's heart was getting louder and louder. It was no longer a simple temptation, but a coercion, a way of convincing people by force.
At this moment, a hand appeared out of thin air, passed through the evil fire, and grasped the hilt of the "Zixia" sword.
A figure appeared in front of Qi Xuansu, and the raging evil fire could not affect him at all.
The next moment, the sword light on the "Zixia" sword was strong and began to dispel the evil fire.
It was as if Qi Xuansu had lost half of his territory, and suddenly reinforcements arrived to help Qi Xuansu regain the lost territory and even launch a counterattack.
With the help of external forces, Qi Xuansu finally regained some clarity, the evil fire in his eyes gradually weakened, and he could see the figure in front of him clearly.
An old Taoist with white hair and beard, by the standards of the world, was more immortal than the national teacher, and his expression was a bit kind.
Qi Xuansu opened his mouth and said with difficulty: "Tianshi?"
Zhang Yuelu knew that she only had one chance. In order to ensure that she could break Qi Xuansu's Jianshenbuhua, she almost used all her strength. The true energy in her body was emptied, and she almost fell to the ground. She could not do anything in a short time.
When "Zixia" pierced Qi Xuansu's lower abdomen but did not change, Zhang Yuelu's heart almost rose to her throat.
Time passed little by little, and Zhang Yuelu felt that it was so long, as if a hundred years had passed.
For a moment, Zhang Yuelu even suspected that she had made a wrong decision. After all, this was the interior of the cave, which was isolated from the inside and outside. Maybe the Tianshi could not sense it at all.
But Zhang Yuelu thought about it. If the cave was in a closed state, it would be reasonable, but the cave itself was leaking on all sides, and they had opened the seal. It was impossible to block the induction between the immortals and the immortal objects. After all, the immortal objects were not comparable to the sutras and the mother-child talismans.
When the Tianshi appeared, Zhang Yuelu finally couldn't help but let out a long breath of turbid air.
She was not wrong in her bet. The word "Tianshi" in "Tianshi Male and Female Sword" was not fake. Tianshi could indeed sense abnormalities through "Tianshi Male and Female Sword".
Zhang Yuelu did not doubt whether Tianshi could come. Taiping Dao had a semi-immortal item "Mirror Flower and Water Moon". Zhengyi Dao also had a similar semi-immortal item called "Haotian Mirror". It could not be used by people who were not immortal. As long as you hold this mirror and visualize it without moving, you can project a mirror image thousands of miles away, with 80% of the original cultivation. The disadvantage is that when using the "Haotian Mirror", the original body cannot move at all and cannot attack at the same time as the mirror image.
Comparing the two, each has its own advantages and disadvantages. "Jing Hua Shui Yue" has a lower threshold, and its efficacy depends on the realm and cultivation level of the person who uses it. The "Haotian Mirror" has a higher threshold and can transmit farther. What’s more, the former can bring the true body down, but needs a guide, while the latter can only bring down the incarnation and doesn’t need a guide.
At this time, the Heavenly Master came here with the "Haotian Mirror". Although it was only 80% of the cultivation level of the original body, it was just overkill to deal with a severed hand.
In fact, even if Izanozun collected five seal parts, he could not be said to be in full glory. It's just that Izanozun's status is too high, he participated in the creation and perfection of Fenglin Continent, and his connection with Fenglin Continent is too close, so there are so many miraculous things. If we use mystical words, Izanozun possesses the merits of creation and is blessed by luck.
The Heavenly Master faced Qi Xuansu, with his back to Zhang Yuelu, and said in a gentle tone: "Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. You little guys are really bold, how dare you tease such an ancient god."
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were both speechless.
It's not that True Monarch Ziguang deceived them, but it proved that True Monarch Ziguang's prediction was very accurate. It was indeed about 50% of the danger, there was a near miss, and the other 50% was saved by the Heavenly Master.
Izanozun's severed hand also sensed the presence of the Celestial Master. His thumb, middle finger, ring finger, and little finger still held Qi Xuansu, and he extended his index finger to point at the Celestial Master.
The rolling evil fire swept towards the Heavenly Master, came to the Heavenly Master, and then quickly disappeared without a trace.
The Heavenly Master did not make any move. There seemed to be an upright lake in front of him. The rolling evil fire was thrown into the lake water, like a mud cow entering the sea, causing many ripples, but it was limited to this. It was not too big. spray.
All the evil fire that attacked the Heavenly Master was dissolved into the most primitive Yin Qi and divine power.
This scene looks very simple, but it is also very shocking. The evil fire that made Feng Linzhou miserable should have no effect in front of the Celestial Master.
In fact, evil fire is like poison. The dose of poison required to poison a person is very different from that of an elephant. The evil fire that can be controlled by a severed hand can make Qi Xuansu helpless, but as a quasi-one-kalpa immortal, Qi Xuansu can't do anything. Heavenly Master.
Then the Heavenly Master slowly pulled out the "Zixia" that had penetrated Qi Xuansu's lower abdomen, and at the same time reached out to hold the "Qingyun" around Qi Xuansu's waist.
The two swords returned to their master's hands and trembled one after another.
The sword in the box roars all the time, and I swear not to pass it on until I meet my colleagues.
Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were not recognized by the "Celestial Master's Male and Female Sword" and could not be considered as colleagues. The key to being able to use the "Celestial Master's Male and Female Sword" was the help of the Heavenly Master, so every time they used the "Celestial Master's Male and Female Sword" To withstand the great pressure from the "Tianshi Male and Female Sword" itself, the two swords were used three times in a short period of time, almost crushing the two of them. But there is no pressure at all in the hands of the Heavenly Master's Male and Female Sword, not because the Heavenly Master has a higher level of cultivation, but because the Heavenly Master has been recognized by the "Celestial Master's Male and Female Sword".
The two swords in the Heavenly Master's hands crossed, and two rays of sword light were cut out, intertwined to form the character "乂".
The sword light was like scissors, cutting off Izanozun's hand from the wrist, and billowing flames surged out from the broken position like a volcano erupting. ..
The palm fell to the ground, and the five fingers slowly loosened, and Qi Xuansu rolled out of the grasp of the palm.
But soon, the palm stood up again, and was rejoined with the arm under the pull and casting of the evil fire. At first, traces similar to those of welding and recasting could be seen at the broken part of the wrist. Soon these traces disappeared without a trace and remained intact as before.
It is not unreasonable that Mahavairocana just divided Izanozun into five parts and sealed them separately.
After Qi Xuansu was freed from the control of the severed hand, he failed to get up immediately. He knelt on the ground and coughed violently. Flames continued to pour out of his seven orifices. At the same time, he coughed up many lumpy objects from his body, which seemed to be burned red. The sword wound on his abdomen had not healed, and something like magma flowed out of it.
Zhang Yuelu subconsciously wanted to help Qi Xuansu up, but within his reach, he felt as if he was touching a soldering iron, making a hissing sound.
Zhang Yuelu ignored the burning pain and looked at the Heavenly Master: "Ah Weng!"
To be fair, Zhang Yuelu rarely asked for help, even from his elders, which showed that he was really in a hurry this time.
The Heavenly Master smiled: "It doesn't matter."
After saying that, the Heavenly Master held two swords in his right hand and drew a circle with his free left hand. A purple electric ball emerged from his palm, and then he pressed his palm on the top of Qi Xuansu's head, pouring the thunder and lightning into Qi Xuansu's body.
At first glance, Qi Xuansu seemed to be electrified.
The evil fires that were raging in Qi Xuansu's body were immediately suppressed by the purple electricity and soon disappeared.
