Chapter 5: Enlightenment

(Thank you for supporting the new book "Jiuding Qingyunzhi", as usual, ask for collections, book reviews, and recommendations!)

Bai Qing stood in front of Lao Dao, and after asking, Lao Dao did not answer him. Next, Bai Qing was even more dumbfounded, and the old Taoist told Bai Qing about his family affairs as if he were a few family treasures. Then she stared at him with a smirk.

"The old man is an old friend of my family? or... ”

The latter words could not be spoken, and Bai Qing was shocked by the possibility that suddenly came to mind.

"Could it be my Bai family's great enemy?" was suspicious in his heart, but tried to keep his composure.

Lao Dao saw that his face was cloudy, and he stroked his beard and laughed: "You kid, you are thinking nonsense! Let me tell you, except for your relatives, there are nine people in this world who will never harm you." I'm one of them!"

When he talked about his name, a handful of floating dust appeared out of thin air in Lao Dao's hand and waved it easily. The blue light was shining, and Bai Qing looked at it again, and the embarrassed appearance that rushed out of the forest was no longer there.

Silver-white hair in a high bun, tied within a crown of purple stars. The pitch-black Chenxing Dao robe, Luo Xingdao boots, the long beard with long eyebrows and no wind dragging. In an instant, there was a good Dao bone fairy wind on the top of this mountain.

Without waiting for Bai Qing to react, Chen Xuzi pinched the trick with his left hand, and there were words in his mouth.

After a moment, the dust in his right hand flicked up, and four fluorescent light slowly rose from among the rocky hills and the shrubs of the plains. One of them has just risen, and the dust of the old road has been swept away, and it has disappeared. After the other three rose to three feet above the ground, they suddenly increased their speed and flew happily towards the top of the mountain where Bai Qing and Chen Xuzi were.

Bai Qing only felt a flower in front of him, and three fluorescents appeared in front of him. If you look closely, the fluorescent ones are the appearance of a flame finch, a red snake, and a giant bear. They all looked respectful like people, staring at Bai Qing with joy.

Bai Qing was stared at furiously, and turned his head to hand Chen Xuzi an inquiring look.

Lao Dao sighed: "Hey, it turned out to be you." ”

When the three fluorescent saw the old man coming, they also bowed respectfully.

"Do you know them?"

"You know, even their names were given by you back then. But you don't remember that they were like this. ”

Chen Xuzi turned to the three fluorescent clusters again: "Red Luan, Red Scale, Kunlun, your last life, you are willing to do this! Please accept my Chen Xuzi's worship!"

"Our cultivation is lowly, and the master will not abandon it in the previous life. Since this life is the eternal secret, let's repay the favor once!"

The next moment, the three shadow guards knelt on one knee and bowed in front of Bai Qing.

"Red Luan!Red Scales!Kunlun!Is it really the three of you?!" Bai Qing's eyes were red, and he rushed forward to hug them.

However, first the palms, then the arms, and then the entire body passed through the fluorescence. Bai Qing lowered his head, and a hot teardrop hit the ground.

"Send them away. Chen Xuzi saw that the three fluorescences were gradually dimming, and reminded.

A trace of realization surged in Bai Qing's heart, and the index finger of his right hand slowly gathered a trace of silver light.

"I would like to be with the three of you, not forever. After speaking, Bai Qing's index finger shone with silver light, and it was pointed at the eyebrows of the three people.

In an instant, countless lights and shadows flowed in front of Bai Qing's eyes, as if the past was vivid.

A wounded flame sparrow, wailing in the palm of a man's hand. After healing it, the flame sparrow took a sycamore branch. Since then, there has always been a small red finch resting on the man's shoulder.

A small snake with red scales all over its body catapulted and flew towards the man who had never dodged. The fangs are embedded in his shoulders, and the man can feel the toxins injected into his body. Looking at the giant eagle that was frightened away by his feathered arrows, the man knew that the little snake was saved, so he slowly fainted. I woke up again, and there was a small snake in my sleeve.

With bursts of heavy breath blowing on the top of his head, the man's wrestling arms with the giant bear gradually exhausted, and he was finally slapped out by the giant bear. After landing on the ground, the man took out a jade bottle, poured it into his mouth indiscriminately, and instantly returned his strength and pounced on the giant bear again. At dusk, a man and a bear lay beside each other, panting. It wasn't until later that the giant bear was no longer an opponent, and followed the man convincingly.

。。。。。。

When Bai Qing was stunned, Chen Xuzi was aroused by the scene just now, and he was puzzled. "As far as the cultivation of the three is concerned, it should end in two lifetimes. But just now it was ignited by the power of Bai Qingyuehua, and the fluorescence did not dissipate, but it rose up... ”

Immediately afterwards, it was a left-handed trick and a calculation. After a while, there was a smile on the corner of Lao Dao's mouth: "That sentence 'I am willing to be with the three of you, not forever.'" Maybe it can really come true. The power of my lord, even at this time, is really beyond my calculation!"

At this time, Bai Qing had already lost the three fluorescents in front of him. Only the fragments that seemed to have been made out of nothing since just now were left behind, turned into memories and deeply imprinted in the brain.

Gradually recovering his mind, Bai Qing temporarily buried his sadness in his heart and looked at Chen Xuzi.

"Senior, what Bai Qing saw today is beyond his own understanding. Can you help me with a question or two?"

Bai Qing clasped his fists and asked for advice.

When Chen Xuzi saw Bai Qing giving a salute, he quickly picked him up and pulled him to the top of the mountain. Pointing to the dark forest with one hand, he asked, "Do you know what the purple qi that lingers above the forest is?"

Bai Qing shook his head, and the purple qi he saw after the spiritual eye was opened, rising and diffuse, rich as substance, but he didn't know what it was.

"That's demonic energy, demonic energy soaring to the sky! This land is extremely vast, and such a grand demonic energy shows that there are countless demons inside, and if it endangers the world, the world will already be purgatory. ”

Then he pointed to the north, east, and south, and continued to ask, "Look at this large area of plains, why is there a small hilly area here, and there are no living creatures in it except for alien species?"

Bai Qing recalled that since the four of them entered the hills, they stopped and walked, and they felt as if the hills were pitifully small, and it was true that except for the cloud ducks brought by the assassin, there were no other birds and beasts.

"This hill is not naturally formed, and the great demon in the forest can't be a disaster to the world, because of it. ”

As he spoke, the dust was swept away, and Chen Xuzi silently recited the obscure trick in his mouth, and then shot out countless light and shadow seals like the depths of the hills.

For a while, the shaking of the earth cracked and the mountain collapsed, and the entire periphery of the hill quickly shrank to the center, and the low hill on the side of the mountain where Bai Qing drank Chen Xuzi gradually rose.

At the same time, there were countless roars suddenly from the black forest in the south, and Bai Qing turned his head to see that the sky above the forest was originally rising and rich purple qi, but it gradually shrank into the forest, as if he was afraid of something and took refuge.

Gradually, the ground shook and the monster roared to a halt. Bai Qing turned around and saw that what he was stepping on was no longer the stone platform on the top of the mountain. If you look closely, you don't know what kind of material the ground is, it's pitch black and smooth. His gaze stretched forward under his feet, and Bai Qing became more and more surprised.

The whole hill no longer exists, and in its place is an artifact. Yes, that's right, it's like an alchemy furnace, but it's an incomparably huge artifact, and the small self is standing on one side of the furnace ear. Whoever changes to it will faint in shock.

However, when he saw all this, Bai Qing had a sense of déjà vu, as if he should be extremely familiar with this object. Bai Qing squatted down and subconsciously pressed the palms of his hands on the pitch-black 'ground'. Suddenly, a pulse from the Dan furnace came, "Knock~Knock~".

And this Dan furnace also seemed to feel something, and a throbbing similar to human joy was transmitted to Bai Qing's brain in an instant. The Dan furnace was originally autonomous, and the pulsating frequency eventually coincided with Bai Qing's heartbeat.

As soon as this tacit understanding took shape, not only was this huge Dan furnace shocked, but Bai Qing also felt wonderful. This feeling is like reuniting old friends who haven't seen each other for many years!

On the side, Chen Xuzi stood opposite Bai Qing with his feet in the void. He had a heart-to-heart connection with this Dan furnace, and he was equally pleased with the feelings of the Dan furnace.

Moreover, a few months ago, Chen Xuzi was meditating on the stone platform on the top of this mountain, and suddenly he had a sense, and when he looked up, he saw a lucky star bursting and shining, and he had expectations: "Can you really see it in your lifetime?"

And now, the expectation has come true. If the old Tao hadn't been cultivated for thousands of years, I was afraid that he would be in tears, and he couldn't do it himself.

At this time, the tacit understanding between Danlu and Bai Qing has been completed, Chen Xuzi sat down cross-legged in mid-air, and he couldn't interfere in the next thing, just wait.

"My lord, in this life, let this furnace enlighten you. ”

Chen Xuzi looked at his nose with his eyes, looked at his heart with his nose, and went to cultivate.

On the plains, the demonic aura of the black forest converged, and the forest was as quiet as a cicada. A giant Dan furnace did not move. All around is calm and quiet.

As everyone knows, the sea of white and green knowledge at this moment is the churning of huge waves. Countless pieces of information drilled into his mind, although many of them were still in a sealed state and could not be understood, Bai Qing's gradually soothing expression meant that he had some understanding.

First of all, what shocked Bai Qing was that this was already his second life. In the previous life, his name was Qingyun, and in this life, he was born in a family surnamed Bai, so he was called Bai Qing. Then there was some important information.

There are three realms in this space-time, and Bai Qing's current location is the 'Primordial Realm'. The ruler of the primordial realm is man, and the other living creatures are animals and plants. As long as it is a living thing, the body can store energy. And among them, those who know how to drive the application of the energy in the body can cultivate.

Human cultivation in the 'Primordial Realm' can only increase energy, but it does not produce a change in order. On the other hand, animals and plants can be cultivated to reach the second level in the original realm, and that is the demon.

Throughout the ages, the powerful human beings have believed that since there are demons, it proves that there must be a level of change in cultivation. It's just that it's easier to advance demons, and the advancement of humans is not a good way.

So there are people constantly trying. However, all the mighty ones are wandering, and there is no evidence that human beings have advanced in this way.

However, there is also a consensus among human cultivators that advanced requires a huge amount of energy. Reach and penetrate the boundaries of progression, and you can advance. And the energy that can be stored by human beings alone is not enough to reach the limit.

So there were sages who imitated the divine bird phoenix and created the method of nirvana rebirth. Once the powerful person successfully casts this method, he can not only inherit all the cultivation of the previous life after reincarnation, but also use the physical body container of this life to continue to accumulate energy.

This method is not demanding, and the success rate is not low. But the disadvantage is also very regrettable, there is that this method can only be used once, that is to say, it can only be reborn once in Nirvana, and it can only save two lifetimes in total, not to mention that the memory needs to be enlightened after rebirth.

Therefore, even if there are many people who are reborn in this way, there are still no people who have reached the threshold that everyone aspires to. Therefore, in the primordial realm, those who are overflowing again in the second life will have no other way.

A few people are still traveling around and are unwilling to give up, but they can only spend their lives like everyone else, waiting for the time to come, and regretting to leave.

However, Bai Qing, who was in the first life, was gifted with outstanding talents and a brilliant mind, and at the age of only 30, he raised his cultivation to the level of overflowing. He began to travel the world early, visiting famous mountains and rivers, and breaking into the demon forest and magic mountains.

And because of the intimacy with birds and beasts since childhood, Bai Qing gradually developed some demonic beast-like abilities to sense nature.

And it was this ability that was not doing his job properly and seemed to be a chicken rib that allowed Bai Qing to sense an object when he was exploring a volcano, and find it with the power of induction.

At the beginning of the period, it was clear that the treasure's remarkable function was exerted too violently in the Origin Realm, and the results were not satisfactory. And later, Bai Qing realized how lucky he was, or how lucky humans were.
