Chapter 7 Mutation
After Lin Yuanmiao left, Qi Xuansu walked around the alchemy room and found that the eight-diagram turntable on the ground could be controlled. After he pressed a mechanism, the eight-diagram turntable began to rotate, and the huge three-meter-high alchemy furnace sank into the ground, and a jade platform rose up.
Qi Xuansu took out the "Gui Zang Lamp" and placed it on the jade platform.
The Heavenly Master had already lit the "Gui Zang Lamp", and the seven-color glass flame illuminated the alchemy room, reflecting Qi Xuansu's face into seven colors.
Qi Xuansu reached out and held the "Gui Zang Lamp", and began to operate the pseudo-ascension method taught by the Heavenly Master.
Someone once described the human immortals and ghost immortals like this: the world is a sea of suffering, people are in the sea, cultivation is crossing the sea, the body is the boat, and the soul is the person in the boat. The boat carries people and sails to the other side. Is it to cultivate the body and strengthen the hull? Or to cultivate the soul so that the people in the boat are familiar with water?
Qi Xuansu felt like sailing in the vast ocean at this time, and the ascended person was the boat in the sea.
The difference is that the real ascenders are ironclad ships, and they can sail to the real other shore according to their own wishes. The pseudo-ascension method is a wooden sailboat, which must keep drifting according to the ocean currents and wind directions.
That's fine, wooden sailboats are much more fragile than ironclad ships, and if you are not careful, the ship will be destroyed and people will die. No wonder the threshold of the pseudo-ascension method must be the stage of creation. If the realm is lower, it will not be a wooden sailboat, but a canoe.
The more critical issue is the chart issue. Different pseudo-ascension methods are like different charts, corresponding to different routes and going to different destinations.
The Taoist pseudo-ascension method given by the Heavenly Master is to guide the sailboat to an island called "Kunlun", but the world has changed dramatically. Now the location of this island has shifted greatly, and most of the island has sunk into the sea, even the beacon lighthouse on the island is no exception.
This outdated pseudo-ascension method highlights a confusion at the moment, no wonder the Heavenly Master calls it a useless method.
However, at this moment, the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" in Qi Xuansu's body began to play a role, illuminating the way forward and guiding Qi Xuansu's sailboat to another island called "Lingshan". Although this island did not sink or move, it was shattered after suffering an "earthquake". The original channel was destroyed and there were reefs around it, so be careful.
At the same time, the "Gui Zang Lamp" was like an infinitely extended rope, one side was fixed to the anchorage of Tongzhen Palace, and the other side was tightly connected to the hull, ensuring that Qi Xuansu could return to the original route and that Qi Xuansu would not accidentally deviate from the channel and get lost in the turbulence.
At this moment, an accident happened.
Although this pseudo-ascension process is likened to walking on the sea, the actual senses certainly do not present the scene of sea water, but more like walking in the muddy, and somewhat similar to the yin and yang channel, without the concept of light and dark, and it is difficult to distinguish between the east, south, west and north, and even the concept of the passage of time is blurred.
Suddenly, the surrounding muddy scene disappeared, and the concept of light and dark appeared again, and then the scene of the starry sky appeared.
Some of the stars that were originally as small as a dot quickly approached and became within reach, huge and like mountains.
However, most of the stars were still far away in the sky.
Qi Xuansu's progress also stagnated.
It was as if the ship was sucked into a vortex and could not move.
Then, the surrounding starry sky twisted, and the arrangement of the stars began to change, connecting the dots into lines, and connecting the lines into a picture. It was a high-level existence that used the vast starry sky as a carrier to cast a projection in Qi Xuansu's vision.
This was like a giant with the outline of the body outlined by the stars. It had no substance and seemed to exist forever. It can be seen that it was a woman's body. When her face gradually became clear, Qi Xuansu had already recognized the identity of the visitor.
It was the ancient immortal Wu Luo.
The master of Lingshan Wu Cult and the last leader of the ancient Wu Cult.
No matter which identity it was, it meant that Wu Luo had a very close connection with Lingshan.
It is not surprising that Wu Luo blocked the way to Lingshan at this time. It seems that Wu Luo regarded Lingshan Dongtian as his own backyard. Even if this backyard was overgrown with weeds, he would not allow others to sneak in.
As for the Yao family, that was another matter. Strictly speaking, the Yao family had the key and was the owner of this deserted house. And Wu Luo might not be able to stop him.
However, it was still easy for Wu Luo to stop Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu also expected this situation, so he had been dragging it on for two years before exploring Lingshan Dongtian. The "Guizang Lantern" was prepared for this situation. If Wu Luo intended to capture or kill Qi Xuansu, then the "Guizang Lantern" would pull Qi Xuansu back to the world.
But Qi Xuansu was very unwilling. It is said that a master dies before he succeeds. Could it be that he had planned for a long time and had to go back home before he saw Lingshan Dongtian?
The "Guizang Lantern" has multiple functions, and the interval between the use of each function is calculated separately. This function that helps Qi Xuansu "return home" can only be used once every sixty years. It is a joke to use it so easily.
Da Zhenren Mansion, Demon Suppression Platform.
Everyone knows that Da Zhenren Mansion is not only the residence of the Heavenly Masters of all generations, but also the ancestral home of Zhengyi Dao.
Da Zhenren Mansion has many buildings, such as the Wanfa Zongtan, Weiyu Book House, etc., but the most well-known is the Demon Suppression Well located in the back mountain. At first glance, it seems to be no different from an ordinary well, but according to legend, there are nine layers under this well, like a prison, suppressing many evil demons.
The Demon-Suppressing Well was opened by the Grandmaster with great power before he ascended to heaven. It is actually a cave with nine layers of cave corresponding to nine realms. According to the different realms, the prisoners were thrown into different caves.
Not only is the vitality of heaven and earth extremely thin, it is impossible to cultivate. There is also a mysterious formation left by the Grandmaster. Any slight movement will attract the "Thunder Curse" set by the Grandmaster. The greater the movement, the heavier the punishment. At the same time, it will absorb the prisoner's cultivation to charge the "Punishment Pillar", so there is no possibility of fighting between the evil demons imprisoned in it. After all, the fundamental purpose of the Grandmaster is not to raise Gu, but to persuade people to turn from evil to good.
Later generations built the Demon-Suppressing Platform on this basis.
The Demon-Suppressing Platform is surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. Standing on the Demon-Suppressing Platform, it is like being in a sea of clouds, with excellent scenery.
At first, the Demon Suppression Platform did not have the slightest gloomy atmosphere. Instead, it was stained with the breath of immortals. It was spring-like all year round and rainless all year round, making it an excellent place for viewing.
After the third generation of Heavenly Masters, the Demon Suppression Platform gradually became a place of execution, with murderous aura rising to the sky.
Two "execution pillars" like Huabiao pointed directly to the sky.
The Heavenly Master climbed the Demon Suppression Platform alone, with his hands behind his back, looking at the rolling sea of clouds, and then turned to look at the "execution pillars".
It was on the Demon Suppression Platform that he killed Zhang Wuhen, who had made a big mistake, with a sword, and thus caught the attention of the fifth generation of the Great Master, and finally took over the position of Heavenly Master.
The Heavenly Master sighed softly, walked towards the "execution pillar", and his fingers brushed the talismans on the surface of the execution pillar. The moment his fingertips touched the surface of the "execution pillar", a cluster of electric sparks exploded immediately, but failed to hurt the Heavenly Master at all. This flash of electric light kept flowing on the Heavenly Master's fingertips, but could not penetrate into the body at all. After a moment, the electric light disappeared without a trace.
The Heavenly Master did not stop, but held the "Pension Pillar" and fell into deep thought.
Countless purple electric sparks as big as human heads and shaped like hexagonal snowflakes flew in all directions, and a chaotic net-like flame appeared on the surface of the "Pension Pillar". The Heavenly Master still did not move at all, and even his cuffs were not hurt at all, allowing the lightning to wander on his palms and soon dissipated.
The resistance of the "Pension Pillar" became more intense, and countless lightnings surged on the surface, and then gathered into a long dragon of thunder and lightning, circling around the Pillar.
There was a thunderstorm on the Demon Suppression Platform, but no one came to investigate.
After a while, the Heavenly Master finally came back to his senses, retracted his palm, and shook out a treasure seal from his sleeve.
This is the "Heavenly Master Seal", one of the two fundamental immortal objects of the Zhengyi Sect.
After the ancestor Heavenly Master defeated the ancient witch religion, his son Heavenly Master established the "Heavenly Master Governance" in Pingdu Mountain, with the full name "Pingdu Heavenly Master Governance". Therefore, the "Heavenly Master Seal" is also known as the "Yangping Zhidu Gong Seal".
"The remnants of the witch cult." The Heavenly Master whispered softly, holding up the "Yangping Zhidu Gongyin" with his left hand, and the five fingers of his right hand were gathered in the palm of his hand, forming the Five Thunder Fingers.
At the same time, a purple light burst out from the Wanfa Sect Altar.
The Wanfa Sect Altar, also known as the Zhengyi Xuantan, is located on the west side of the Heavenly Master Hall. It enshrines 138 bronze statues, all of which are righteous gods recognized by Taoism. The one in the middle is not the Supreme Taoist Ancestor, but the Three Pure Ones, the incarnation of the Supreme Taoist Ancestor, and the other statues are on the left and right.
After the purple light burst out, a female statue fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a mighty purple light shot out from the main gate of the Wanfa Sect Altar, across the Great True Man's Palace, and finally landed on the "Punishment Pillar" corresponding to "Qingyun".
The Heavenly Master said in a deep voice: "Open!"
In an instant, the purple light disappeared without a trace.
Wu Luo stared at this familiar yet strange figure. She had seen him more than once, and even felt traces of her own divine power on him. Through this line of connection, she quickly figured out the origin of this person, including his two participations in the killing of Siming Zhenjun.
This child must not be left alive.
Just as Wu Luo was about to destroy this Taoist priest who had ruined her plans in Borneo, an indescribable force swept over out of thin air.
This force was so strong that even Wu Luo could hardly resist it.
In Wu Luo's Supreme perspective, three different powers can be seen.
The "Five Thunders and Heavenly Heart Righteous Law" of the Heavenly Master, the "Yangping Zhidu Gongyin", and the Purple Light Zhenjun.
Wu Luo said angrily: "Purple Light Zhenjun, do you also want to be the second Taiyin Zhenjun?"
Before the words fell, these three different powers all converged into the "Gui Zang Lantern", making the "Gui Zang Lantern" very powerful.
The seven-color glazed flames quickly spread to Qi Xuansu's body and wrapped him up, following the mysterious connection between the "Gui Zang Lantern" and Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu instantly turned into a "fire man", not only was he surrounded by flames, but even his seven orifices were gushing out seven-color glazed flames.
Wu Luo tried his best to throw Qi Xuansu into the turbulence.
This place does not belong to the human world, Wu Luo can exert all his strength.
However, Qi Xuansu, who was backed by two immortals and two immortal objects, was not moved at all.
The power of the immortals and the immortal objects continued to clash, and finally returned to silence.
Everything was distorted.
After a while, Wu Luo's projection, which was outlined by the stars in the sky, began to collapse.
The starry sky was like a curtain, and a big hole was "burned" by the seven-color glazed flames, and this big hole was constantly expanding, revealing the muddy scene behind it, dim and uncertain, chaotic, as if the beginning of the universe, all concepts did not exist.
Qi Xuansu finally flew into this "burned" big hole involuntarily.
