Chapter 188: Bagua Immortal Furnace
Taishang Laojun is very satisfied with his brand-new 'furnace room'. This 'furnace room' www.biquge.info is extremely spacious, with a distance of 100 zhang in length and width, and a height of dozens of zhang. The entire 'furnace chamber' is enclosed by a large lilac crystal dome. This lilac dome is not simple, it is called the 'Firmament Spirit Dome', which is completely condensed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into a crystalline body similar to a spirit stone. The aura contained in it is almost endless. Under this huge 'Firmament Spiritual Dome', there are dozens of houses, all of which are built around this 'furnace room'. Those houses, except for a larger one, which was a temporary dormitory for Taishang Laojun during his alchemy, most of the rest were warehouses, which stored some rare alchemy materials, and some were finished pills, or hand-tied things like Danfang.
In order to build this alchemy 'furnace room', Taishang Laojun has spent countless efforts and invited a lot of masters to help, and there are more than 100 people before and after, after several years, he has forcibly transformed a small world with a radius of hundreds of miles and extremely abundant spiritual power into what it is today. Just the work of condensing and compressing these hundreds of miles of small world into this space of 100 zhang makes him feel like a nightmare every time he thinks about it.
Fortunately, everything is completed, although for this 'furnace room', he almost hollowed out his 'family foundation', but seeing his 'heart and liver baby' gossip fairy furnace, it can be safely and steadily placed in the center of the furnace room, under this 'sky spirit roof', Taishang Laojun still said from the bottom of his heart: "It's worth it!" ”
The size of this gossip fairy furnace is not small, there are nine zhang nine high, the furnace is oblate, and the diameter is also nine zhang nine, which means that ninety-nine is one. Under the furnace, there are three tripods with more than one foot high, respectively with the table 'heaven', 'earth', 'man' three talents. Between the two feet of 'heaven' and 'earth', there is a step that leads directly to the hearth, where there is a Taiji diagram about the size of one zhang. Below this gossip fairy furnace, there are eight small holes with the size of a fist, and above these small holes are written 'Qian', 'Kan', 'Gen', 'Zhen', 'Xun', 'Li', 'Kun', 'Dui', eight quaint seal characters.
Looking at everything in front of him, Taishang Laojun couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, with this 'furnace room' and the gossip immortal furnace, what kind of elixir in the world can't be refined?
After sighing to himself, he looked back behind him, and a group of disciples carried the sacrifices and escorted Sun Wukong behind him. And the Monkey King looked sluggish and looked like he couldn't give up. Seeing Wukong's appearance, he couldn't help but show a look of 'disdain'. Secretly proud, he said in his heart: "How tough are you, when you die, you will have no master?" If you knew today, why bother in the first place? I hope that when I enter the Dan furnace for a while, I won't be scared of peeing. Then, he whispered to the disciple beside him, "The auspicious time is coming, let's prepare to open the furnace." ”
All the disciples responded "yes" in unison, and then brought out the 'three animals' for the sacrifice, which were three wild cows, three handsome horses, and three green sheep, all of which were carefully dressed, each of them washed cleanly, and a wreath of unknown flowers was worn on the head and neck. These cows, horses, and sheep didn't know what kind of spell had been cast, and the eyes of these nine livestock were obviously terrified, but they were all honest, kneeling down in the nine huge white jade trays, and did not move.
These people resisted these large trays, and placed these cows, horses, and sheep in a certain order in front of the gossip furnace, and Wukong was also pushed into it. Someone stepped forward and said a lot of sacrificial texts, and then several more people came up, all with knives in their hands, and gently cut the necks and limbs of these sacrificial cows, horses, and sheep. Immediately, the blood on the bodies of these cows, horses, and sheep flowed out like spring water, flowing into the tray, and in just a few moments, the large white jade tray was dyed blood-red. Although the trays under the cows, horses, and sheep were filled with their own blood, they were not dead, their eyes revealed despair, and their bodies trembled slightly, but they still knelt motionless.
Wukong's treatment is much better than these cows, horses and sheep, he was not bled out, but pulled out the 'scattered nails' on his body, but the ropes on his body were not untied.
Although the five 'Scattered Nails' on Wukong's body are just magic weapons, they are not even magic weapons, but this 'Scattered Nails' are more cumbersome to manufacture, and the materials are not easy to find, so Taishang Laojun was reluctant to burn this 'Scattered Nails' with Sun Wukong. As for pulling out the 'Scattered Law Nail', whether Sun Wukong will recover his mana and cause him trouble. He is not worried, this 'scattered nail' has been in Sun Wukong's body, nailed for several days, Sun Wukong's mana has long been scattered, it is not easy to recover in a short time, not to mention that Sun Wukong will be sent into the gossip immortal furnace soon. The Bagua Immortal Furnace itself is the treasure of heaven and earth, and it needs to absorb a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy to catalyze and decompose the fairy grass elixir to condense the elixir. Being in the middle of it, and still wanting to snatch the aura from it, isn't that a joke?
After all this was done, another person stepped forward, walked up the steps, and pressed a few times next to the Taiji Yin-Yang Diagram on the Bagua Furnace, and the Yin-Yang Pisces of the Taiji Diagram slowly separated. A large round furnace door was revealed. The disciples behind Lao Jun also stepped forward at this time, and carried the jade plate that had turned blood-red and Wukong, who was tied into a twisted flower, into the gossip furnace. After all the disciples came out, the yin and yang fish that followed the Taiji diagram slowly closed again, and the door of the furnace was closed tightly.
After the furnace door was closed, there was nothing to do, and Taishang Laojun 'banged' out all the disciples. There were only two little dao boys left beside him, and these two little boys were carrying a turquoise banana treasure fan on their backs, holding a small tray in their hands, and four delicate red jade fire gourds were placed on the plates.
Taishang Laojun closed his eyes and counted for a while, and then said to the two little Taoists: "The auspicious time has come, Xuanjing, Xuanyi, go and light the fire." ”
The two Taoist boys responded: "Yes, Master." After speaking, he came to the bottom of the Bagua with the tray, opened the gourd mouth of the eight fire gourds, and placed them on the eight small holes of the Bagua Immortal Furnace, and then took the Basho Bao Fan in his hand, and stood on both sides of the Bagua Furnace on both sides.
Taishang Laojun stepped forward slowly, sat cross-legged in front of the gossip furnace, closed his eyes, chanted a mantra in his mouth, and kept pinching his fingers with both hands, and a silver flame the thickness of his thumb erupted from the mouths of the eight gourds, and under the command of Taishang Laojun's fingering method, they drilled into these small holes. At a glance, it can be seen that this fire is not an extraordinary fire, and those small holes are the fire inlets of the Bagua furnace.
The two little boys with fans were not idle at this time, all holding banana fans, facing the four fire inlets in front of them, and their eyes kept watching the movements of Taishang Laojun's hands, and when they saw which direction Lao Jun was pointing to, they quickly fanned a few fans against the fire inlet in that direction. The flame, which was originally only the thickness of a thumb, burst into flames as if it had been poured into the oil of ignorance, and made a 'whirring' burning sound.
With the tacit cooperation of these three people, the gossip furnace let out a humming sound. Then the whole furnace body was full of divine light, and suddenly, as if the whole heaven and earth were fused with this gossip furnace, the huge 'spiritual top' on the head, flashing with a faint ghostly light, slowly rotated.
After Taishang Laojun lit all the eight fire gourds, the gossip furnace was completely connected with the spiritual power emitted by this 'Sky Spirit Top'. Taishang Laojun finished his practice, closed his eyes and sensed the changes in the spiritual power in the furnace room, and his heart was very satisfied. He laughed softly: "With such abundant aura, it seems that in a maximum of seven days, this Bagua Immortal Furnace will be able to completely integrate with this furnace room." After speaking, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and instructed the two little Taoist boys: "Xuanjing, Xuanjing, don't be lazy in the past seven days, control the fire." Also, don't let the guy in the stove die too soon! ”
Xiao Tong said with a smile: "Please rest assured, Master!" This Monkey King has rough skin and thick meat, and his endurance is very good, and it is not a problem to hold up for three or five days. ”
Another boy followed and said, "That's, that's it, in order to make him stay up for two more days, we didn't even give him blood." ”
"Well, that's good, but you should be careful, and never open the door of the furnace for less than seven days. Otherwise, let this thief escape, and I will ask you about it. ”
"Yes, please rest assured."
"Okay, you guys watch here first, go rest for the teacher first, and come back later." After saying that, he got up and walked to his bedroom.
