Chapter 19: The Soul Sealing Ceremony
After Wen Haotian settled down, he urged the yin qi in the soul to run the Hades Jue, and he could feel that the six souls and the fourteen spirits and the Yuan Yin were all in the continuous operation of the yin qi, constantly absorbing and storing the yin qi. I don't know how long he has been cultivating, the six souls and fourteen spirits in Wen Haotian's soul and the yin qi in Yuan Yin have reached their limits, with his experience of breaking through the first three layers of the Hades Jue, at this time it should be a sign of breaking through the fourth level of the Hades Jue, Wen Haotian did not dare to slack off, urging the yin qi of the whole body to run quickly.
However, regardless of how Haotian urged the Yin Qi in the soul to operate, Hades Jue showed no sign of breaking through the fourth rush.
"Haotian, this is already the limit of your soul. It seems that the Yuan Yin in the soul is different from the Yuan Yin naturally formed when you reach the Yuan Yin level, and it does not allow you to have a higher breakthrough in cultivating the Hades Technique. ”
"What do you mean, Elder?"
"Every kind of Yin Qi cultivation method, if you want to break through to a higher realm, you must have a strong Yin Qi cultivation as a support, and the Hades Jue has higher requirements for cultivators' Yin Qi cultivation than ordinary cultivation exercises. Although the cultivation exercises can improve the cultivator's Yin Qi cultivation, it is only within the limit of the highest Yin Qi cultivation that the cultivator's soul can carry. Breakthroughs such as soul refining and forging are to increase the maximum Yin Qi cultivation that a cultivator's soul can carry. ”
"In other words, my current Yin Qi cultivation has reached the limit of the Yin Qi cultivation that my soul can carry at present, but it is not enough to break through the fourth level of the Hades Jue, so no matter how I cultivate, it is impossible for the Hades Jue to break through again?"
"Yes, exactly. This is also the reason why cultivators pursue a higher realm of their own soul, even if they have the best cultivation techniques, the realm of their own soul cannot be improved, it will be useless. Similarly, after the realm of one's own soul is raised, there is no superior cultivation technique, and it is impossible to cultivate to the limit of the yin qi cultivation that one's soul can carry, and there is no possibility for one's soul to improve the realm again. ”
After listening to the elder's explanation, Wen Haotian restrained the yin qi around him, stopped cultivating anymore, and prepared to go to Qin Lan and them. When he got out of the room, he found that the entire Liuyun Pavilion was as calm as death, he closed his eyes and perceived, only to realize that he had been cultivating for two days, and it was the second half of the night before the Soul Sealing Ceremony. He shook his head with a wry smile, and suddenly felt that this Hades Technique had been cultivated, as if he had entered another dimension, almost shielded from the outside world.
At this time, the guy who was patrolling the night in Liuyun Pavilion happened to pass by in front of Wen Haotian's room, Wen Haotian asked the guy to prepare a "Luo Water Bath" for himself, he planned to relax his soul and welcome tomorrow's "Soul Sealing Ceremony" in full condition.
Wen Haotian felt that he was lying on the bed before he fell asleep, and there was a knock on the door outside the room.
"Wen Haotian is an idiot, he can't get up yet, today is the first day of the Soul Sealing Ceremony, and if he doesn't get up, he will miss the qualification for the competition... Wen Haotian is a big fool, get up quickly..."
"It's up, it's up..."
As soon as he heard this voice, it was not Qin Lan who else, a smile flashed at the corner of Wen Haotian's mouth, this girl with big nerves should have stopped being angry with herself. After a little combing, he opened the door and walked out of the room. Wen Haotian found that in addition to Qin Lan standing at the door, there were also Luo Zifeng and Yu Jiaojiao, and several people had a worried look on their faces.
"Haotian, have you been cultivating for the past two days? I, Qin Lan, and the Jiaojiao girl have come to you several times, and they didn't bother when they sensed that you had already settled down. ”
When Wen Haotian looked at Yu Jiaojiao, he found that she also had an inquiring look, but because of the presence of Luo Zifeng and Qin Lan, he did not take the initiative to speak. Wen Haotian saw the concerned eyes of the three of them, and immediately felt guilty that he was still suspicious of them at first, thinking to himself, everyone has their own secrets, didn't he tell them about the old man.
"Don't worry, I'm just meditating on my cultivation and welcoming the Soul Sealing Ceremony in the best condition. Boss Luo, how are you preparing?"
"Don't worry, I have already fused the Water Repellent Bead with my own soul, and I no longer have to worry about being restrained by the Water System cultivators. ”
"Now that it's all ready, don't ink, there are only a few of us left in the entire Liuyun Pavilion now, hurry up and go to the scene of the Soul Sealing Ceremony." ”
Pushed by Qin Lan, a group of four people walked out of Liuyun Pavilion and walked straight towards the scene of the Soul Sealing Ceremony, the "Soul Sealing Platform". The "Soul Sealing Platform" is located directly opposite the Equality Palace, which is specially built for the "Soul Sealing Ceremony" in the Ghost City of Abi, and there are usually grand activities in the Soul Sealing Platform. When the four of them came to the Soul Sealing Platform, they were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them.
The painting wall ten zhang high in front of me encloses a soul sealing platform with a diameter of fifty zhang, the painting wall is gloomy, the picture carved on it looms, when you look closely, it is the real picture of the eighteen-layer hell of Ah Nose Hell, the momentum is magnificent, and the heart is shocked. Around the painting wall, there will be a sentry every three meters, and the guards of the royal city standing guard are all Yin generals at the peak of the soul gathering, and the whole body is awe-inspiring, and no one dares to attack.
Three zhang and three places around the painting wall, the four sides of the god are erected two zhang thick, eighteen zhang high mantra, faintly you can see the looming thunder on the mantra. The black yin aura around the spell was thick, turning into a roaring flying dragon, coiling around the huge mantra. In the sky above the Soul Sealing Platform, in the center of the four spells, a dragon soul of more than 100 zhang appeared and disappeared in the clouds and mist, looking at the entire Soul Sealing Platform.
Wen Haotian learned from the memory of the old man that this was the "Five Dragons Demon Array", and only at a grand celebration such as the Soul Sealing Ceremony, the "Five Dragons Demon Array" would be sacrificed to deal with the turmoil, riots and other accidents in the celebration to ensure the smooth progress of the celebration. After Wen Haotian and the four of them entered the soul sealing platform from the main entrance, they found that the inside was even more spectacular, and the inner side of the painting wall was the viewing platform, which occupied the entire outer five zhang space of the soul sealing platform. The forty zhang space in the middle of the soul sealing platform is set up with sixteen rings, and around the sixteen rings, there are eight entrances, and only the contestants who participate in the soul sealing ceremony can enter.
At this time, the contestants have entered the central arena one after another, choosing the ring they will conquer later. Today is the first day of the Soul Sealing Ceremony, and all the contestants can board one of the sixteen rings at any time to compete with the champions in the ring, and the winning side becomes the new champion, until in the end, no one attacks, and the sixteen champions left behind will be qualified for the second day of the Soul Sealing Ceremony.
Coming to the entrance of the contestants, Yu Jiaojiao no longer moved forward, and Wen Haotian and the three of them were ready to enter the ring area. After Wen Haotian and Luo Zifeng passed the ban on the qualification test of the Soul Sealing Ceremony, they stood aside and waited for Qin Lan, and Qin Lan tried many times, but could not pass the ban, Wen Haotian then remembered that Qin Lan had told herself that she had refined a soul.
Wen Haotian shook his head helplessly, Qin Lan was confused and sick again, he had already refined his soul, how could he enter this soul sealing ceremony. So, he walked to Qin Lan's side and whispered a few words in her ear, but Qin Lan jumped up and had a brain crash on Wen Haotian's forehead, and shouted at Wen Haotian angrily,
"Wen Haotian is a big idiot, why didn't you tell me earlier, let me prepare for so long!"
"I thought you knew that only cultivators who had not refined their souls could participate in the Soul Sealing Ceremony, seeing that you had no worries and were full of confidence, you should have a way to deal with this prohibition a long time ago, who would have thought that you didn't know the rules at all!"
"Wen Haotian, you big bastard..."
Yu Jiaojiao looked at Qin Lan who was furious on the side, and at this time she also understood what was going on, and said to Qin Lan with a smile,
"Miss Qin Lan, since you can't participate in the event, why don't you wait with me for the good news of the two of them on the viewing platform. ”
Qin Lan stomped her foot, reluctantly turned around and left, took less than two steps, as if she remembered something, ran back again, and beckoned to Wen Haotian. Seeing this, Wen Haotian walked over and came to Qin Lan's approach, Qin Lan took out the "Yin Gathering Spirit Bead" from his arms and put it in Wen Haotian's hand.
"Anyway, this girl can't use it for the time being, I borrowed you first, and then I can't get the leader, don't say I know this girl, this girl is ashamed of you..."
Ignoring Wen Haotian's grateful eyes, Qin Lan grimaced at him and ran away in the direction of Yu Jiaojiao. Wen Haotian held the Yin Gathering Spirit Bead with surging Yin Qi, and his heart was moved, with the Soul Awakening Pill and the Yin Gathering Spirit Bead, Wen Haotian was even more full of information about winning the Soul Sealing Ceremony. As soon as Wen Haotian and Luo Zifeng entered the ring area, they saw Bai Xuan, the third prince of the Equality King, approaching them, and the two wanted to avoid it, but unexpectedly, Bai Xuan shouted at the two from a distance,
"Isn't this an earth dragon? Do you want to be a turtle with a shrunken head? When you see the real dragon of this prince, you are so frightened that you run away with your tail between your legs?"
Wen Haotian saw that Bai Xuan was jealous of himself, and at this time, the words were all directed at Luo Zifeng, and said angrily,
"Bai Xuan, Lao Tzu didn't hurt you in the face of King Equality that day, did you forget? Do you want to try again today?"
When Bai Xuan heard Wen Haotian's words, his face was red for a while, white for a while, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
"Wen Haotian, you... Hmph, you wait for this prince, if you have a kind of come to the ring of this prince, if this prince is afraid of you, he will not be called Bai Xuan!"
After Bai Xuan finished speaking, his whole body trembled with anger, and he left Wen Haotian and Luo Zifeng and walked towards another ring. Wen Haotian raised his feet and was about to chase Bai Xuan over, but was stopped by Luo Zifeng,
"Haotian, don't be impulsive, the strength of the Soul Sealing Ceremony is one thing, and strategy is also very important. Now those who have a little strength hope that you will follow you and fight to the death with Bai Xuan, so that they will have one less strong opponent, and the chance of staying in the ring will be one point greater. ”
"Boss Luo, he insulted you like that and provoked us, can you bear this?"
"Our purpose this time is to get a good ranking in the Soul Sealing Ceremony, Bai Xuan and I have a misunderstanding, but the most important thing at the moment is the Soul Sealing Ceremony. Bai Xuan's strength is not weak, and now he has immortal elixir to rely on, why don't you borrow his hand to help us clean up those small characters first, today is the Defending Competition, with him, our pressure will be reduced a lot, isn't it?"
After listening to Luo Zifeng's words, Wen Haotian instantly had a much clearer thought, it was indeed that he was carried away by Bai Xuan's provocation just now, and he immediately admired Luo Zifeng for being calm and calm.
At this time, not far from Wen Haotian and Luo Zifeng, a young man dressed in black, with a burly figure and red eyebrows, and a charming woman with a graceful posture and misty eyes, saw all the provocations of Bai Xuan against Wen Haotian and Luo Zifeng. These two are none other than Shen Lie of the Demon Scorpion Clan and Black Ji of the Nine Lives Cat Demon. Shen Lie kneaded Hei Ji's buttocks and said with a look of enjoyment,
"I underestimated this Luo Zifeng before, although his cultivation is below me, but his thoughtfulness and open-mindedness are indeed worth noting. ”
"Well... Yes... Young Master Shen, you are bad..."
"Hahahaha..."
Shen Lie saw that after Wen Haotian and Luo Zifeng left, he hugged Hei Ji's thin waist and walked in the direction of Lingyi, he didn't want to meet these people on the first day, because this fighting match was not as easy as he imagined.
