406 The Catastrophe of Jindan

"Once you've entered the Heart Demon Tower, you'll have to rely on yourself. Senior sister went in to practice the exercises, but there was no protection mechanism, and this time she wanted to hit a pass, and the process was very dangerous, so she couldn't take care of you at that time. Senior Sister Guan finally said.

After Senior Sister Guan's introduction all the way, Chen Ping had a similar understanding of the situation of the Heart Demon Tower.

"Thank you sister for teaching, after all the tribulations, it is still your own business after all. Senior Sister Guan doesn't have to worry about me. Chen Ping thanked him.

The two soon arrived at the Heart Demon Tower on the edge of the cliff.

The Heart Demon Tower looks like it's just a small ancient tower, and the tower is engraved with the three big characters of 'Tribulation Tower'.

The name 'Heart Demon Tower' is just another name for it by the disciples.

After entering the Heart Demon Tower, after Chen Ping and Senior Sister Guan registered at the tower master, the two of them said goodbye, and Senior Sister Guan needed to go to the upper layers to sharpen.

Chen Ping is a novice, so he is naturally the first layer.

After Senior Sister Guan left, the tower master limped over and said expressionlessly:

"Since you came with Xiaoguan, you must know the rules of the Tribulation Tower, right?"

"Senior Sister Guan has explained." Chen Pingdao.

The tower master handed over a jade plaque:

In that case, the old man didn't have to say much. If you take this jade pendant, once you sleep to a certain extent, this jade pendant will wake up the wearer on its own, so you must keep the jade pendant on your body. One more thing to mention, once the jade pendant is activated, remember not to continue the next tribulation, otherwise once you lose yourself, no one will be able to save you. ”

"Thank you Lord Tower for reminding me." Chen Ping thanked him.

Turning his head to look into the inner room.

The Heart Demon Tower is divided into eight floors.

The first seven layers correspond to different mood grinding scenes, including desire, fear, obsession, joy, anger and sorrow, and so on.

Different layers, the Monk's demon type will not be repeated.

The first three layers are mandatory.

The pattern of the first three levels of mental tempering is fixed, and every monk encounters the same situation. After completing these three layers, the Jindan Tribulation is basically completed.

The middle four floors are optional questions.

If the jade pendant is not activated in the first three layers, the eclipse can choose to continue to the next tribulation, and the farther you go, the more you will benefit.

The pattern of the tempering of the mood in the middle four levels is not necessarily fixed, and the scenes or hallucinations that each monk faces may vary greatly.

The further back the tower floor, the stronger the demons become.

Of course, if you can go through the tribulation smoothly, the benefits will be the greatest.

The last layer is the comprehensive layer, not the Jindan Tribulation that is used for the current Jindan third layer.

Therefore, Chen Ping can only use the first seven floors at most.

After Chen Ping said goodbye to the tower owner, he first came to the first floor.

I was surprised to find that it was an empty airtight room with nothing, not even a staircase, and I didn't know how to get to the second floor after going through the first floor?

But after stepping in, I realized that there was something else in it.

It was a dark space like a cave. He was on top of a blue rock on a cliff, and in front of him was a bottomless abyss. The black qi in the abyss was tumbling, and the black qi was mixed with a thin trace of white qi.

In the middle of the abyss stands a platform with a waterfall falling from the sky.

Between the blue rock and the waterfall platform is a chain suspension bridge.

Chen Ping turned his head to look around and saw that it was not only the suspension bridge he was on that was connected to the waterfall.

The cliff face that forms a ring around the cascade platform is also covered by several chain suspension bridges, all of which are connected to the waterfall platform in the middle.

On two of the suspension bridges, two monks were also walking in unison.

One man approached the waterfall platform; The other was in the middle of the drawbridge.

I don't know if it's going through tribulations, or if I'm practicing exercises related to tempering my state of mind like Senior Sister Guan.

When the two saw Chen Ping coming in, they turned their heads and nodded as a greeting, but they didn't say anything, and then continued to bury their heads in the road.

Chen Ping looked at the chain suspension bridge under his feet, took a deep breath, and stepped on it.

As Chen Ping stepped in, the chain suspension bridge shook, and countless black gases in the abyss turned into dense bats and slammed into the suspension bridge.

The void bridge in front of him was instantly gnawed away, turned into powder and fell into the abyss.

Chen Ping didn't panic.

Previously, through Senior Sister Guan's introduction, I have learned that this is a fixed scene on the first layer.

Those black bats are the things that attack the state of mind, that is: the inner demon primer.

The Demon Primer will constantly attack the drawbridge. And what the people who have gone through the calamity have to do is to use the original god to constantly rebuild the suspension bridge.

Then step by step to the other side.

As for the failure to build a drawbridge, it is not dead to fall into the abyss.

But it means that the tribulation has failed, the jade pendant has been activated, and the divine soul has been damaged, and it will not be possible to return here to experience the golden pill tribulation again in a short period of time.

Chen Ping calmed his mind and drove the power of his mood to continuously pull the poor white qi in the abyss, and built a suspension bridge under his feet.

As the white gas is being pulled, the pitch black, which doubles in number, will violently impact and disperse the white qi.

Chen Ping could only concentrate on pulling the white qi that was scattered again.

The suspension bridge beneath his feet began to stretch forward one by one.

But then, countless black gas bats attacked, frantically gnawing at the chain suspension bridge. Moreover, this attack is not just on the chain, but between his divine souls through the spiritual link.

Attack on Genshin.

His mind became dazed and dizzy, and his consciousness became blurred for a moment.

The countless bats in the abyss turned into a huge face, staring from the abyss, their faces were hideous, and a seductive sound came into Chen Ping's ears:

"Give it up."

"It's comfortable to give up."

"Why bother with yourself?"

Chen Ping shook his head, wiped a handful of sweat, and came to his senses, only to find that there were no huge faces in the abyss at all.

He focused on concentrating and continued to build the chain suspension bridge.

Extend it for a while, and you will immediately take a step. If it is extended, it may be eaten by the black gas immediately.

And so on and so forth

He had completed the Jade Beaver Alchemy Technique during the foundation building period, and his state of mind was much stronger than that of ordinary cultivators of the same realm, but even so, the process was still extremely difficult and painful.

I don't know how long it took, but he finally took the last step and stepped into the bluestone platform outside the waterfall.

Chen Ping let out a long breath.

Glancing back, he saw that the drawbridge he had walked on was still there, but the drawbridge of the other two monks had been eaten away and was nowhere to be seen.

He didn't have time to think much at the moment, so he immediately sat cross-legged, took advantage of the shower of the waterfall water, and began to practice the jade beaver alchemy.

The water of this waterfall is good for rejuvenating the mind.

The process of the tribulation just now made his state of mind feel as if he had experienced an extremely dangerous battle, and the whole person was in a trance.

If you don't repair your mood, you can't move on to the next step.

"Fellow Daoists, you can recover so quickly." When Chen Ping finished his practice of alchemy, a voice came.

It was the gray-robed monk on a suspension bridge that Chen Ping had seen when he first entered the first floor.

The sturdy monk who was close to the waterfall platform in the first place.

Daoyou smiled, his soul was tired, and he had to cultivate on the spot for so long in order to recover. Don't know what to call a friend? Chen Ping stood up and saluted.

The gray-robed monk thought to himself that you hadn't been for a long time, and for a while thought that Chen Ping was showing off.

But he didn't say anything, and said with a smile:

"In the lower Tang Xiwen, the inner disciple of the main peak. Daoyou face, Daoyou is a new guest? ”

"I've seen Tang Daoyou, in Xia Chen Ping, the registered disciple of the Ninth Peak, who doesn't often practice in Tianyan Sect." Chen Ping saluted.

"I see." Tang Xiwen waved his hand.

The two chatted for a while, and Chen Ping learned that Tang Xiwen was a native disciple of Tianyan Sect, and he had been a disciple of the inner sect of the monk since the Qi refining period, and he had grown up all the way.

At present, it is also the third layer of Jindan, which is from the past robbery.

"When I came in just now, in addition to Tang Daoyou, there was another Taoist friend on another suspension bridge?" After chatting, Chen Ping didn't see the third person, so he asked casually.

Not only did I not see anyone, but the two suspension bridges had been restored to their original chain suspension bridges.

And Chen Ping's suspension bridge formed by pulling white qi with spiritual power was still faintly there, and it was being eaten by the black qi to the last bit of pedal.

"Hurt, he, fall." Tang Xiwen grinned:

Chen Daoyou should not be surprised. Although this is the first layer, there are many monks who have fallen because of it. You have to start all over again. ”

Chen Ping glanced back at the abyss and didn't say anything more.

Even if it is such a big sect, even if it is a Jindan real person, the difference in strength between monks and monks is very large. Just like a fake pill like Lord Sima Feng, his strength will be greatly reduced, and every step after Jin Dan will be extremely difficult.

"Let's go. It's time to move on. Chen Ping looked at the large waterfall falling from the sky in the center of the platform.

Next to the waterfall stands a stone monument with the inscription -

- Gong ushered to the second floor.

Chen Ping suddenly realized that this was the path to the second layer.

These matters are naturally matters that Senior Sister Guan did not mention.

The two of them walked across the waterfall and entered another dimension.

It was a vast grassland, and in the middle of the grassland there was a ladder that did not reach the sky.

Tang Xiwen said lightly:

"We only need to pass this ladder to pass the second test."

"Chen Daoyou don't have to worry, before I came to the Tribulation, I had asked six or seven seniors and Daoyou about the attention of the Tribulation, and I still have a lot of experience. In this way, I will go ahead, and Chen Daoyou can learn from me. ”

Chen Ping smiled:

"Okay, Tang Daoyou, please."

He wished it was.

Each monk walks on the ladder independently, and walking in front and back does not affect the effect of the tribulation.

Walking behind, on the contrary, you can learn some experience from the steps of the former.

"Let's go." Tang Xiwen took the lead in entering the ladder.

When he passed through the first layer just now, he was unconsciously forced by Chen Ping, and he actually held back a lot of strength in his heart.

Now is the time to let Chen Ping know 'what an inner disciple is'.

Chen Pingzhi didn't think too much, he looked at Tang Xiwen's walking style, combined with Senior Sister Guan's experience, digested it slightly, and stepped into the ladder according to his own understanding.

At first, it was very easy, but when it came to the back, it seemed that the footsteps had become heavy.

Each line becomes incredibly difficult as it progresses.

What's even more prominent is that with each step, a trace of red light will splash between the footsteps and the ladder, and those rays will quickly burrow into his body, constantly attacking his mind.

"Bang!"

When Chen Ping buried his head forward, he suddenly hit something and couldn't help stopping.

When I looked up, I found that it hit Tang Xiwen's back.

"Tang Daoyou?" Chen Ping called.

Tang Xiwen glanced back at Chen Ping with difficulty, he was already sweating profusely at the moment, and smiled awkwardly:

"Hehe, damn it, these red lines are quite difficult."

After speaking, he continued to bury his head and walked forward.

Chen Ping saw Tang Xiwen's calves trembling with every step he took.

Chen Ping actually felt that his legs were heavy, but they were far from trembling.

This inner disciple is not very strong, Chen Ping smiled inwardly.

"Or? Am I going ahead? After walking another distance, Chen Ping saw that Tang Xiwen was really difficult, and proposed.

"Okay." Tang Xiwen sneered:

"I just went out to practice a few days ago, and the Yuan Shen was somewhat damaged and didn't fully recover, otherwise it wouldn't be like this."

Chen Ping smiled, sideways around Tang Xiwen and continued upward.

In fact, there is not much difference between going to the front and going to the back, and the only profit from going back is to be able to observe the way the former travels and gain some empirical benefits.

Other than that, it's more on your own.

No one can help you through the tribulation.

Chen Ping continued to rise steadily.

There are more and more red lines that are attacked, and once these red lines are submerged in the body, they will go straight to his heart, making him see countless and various terrifying pictures for a while.

And the more frightened you are, the heavier your steps become.

In the end, Chen Ping's legs seemed to be filled with lead.

But in the end, it came to an end, appearing before the entrance to the third floor.

He immediately sat down cross-legged, and used the aura of this layer to continue to practice the Divine Technique and the Five Qi Dynasty Yuan Gong, so that his turbulent mind could be calm.

When Chen Ping woke up again, he saw Tang Xiwen also sitting next to him meditating cross-legged.

After another while, Tang Xiwen came to his senses.

"Hehe, in fact, the Jindan Tribulation is not so difficult, and there are not too many monks who have fallen because of the Jindan Tribulation. But the sages of the Tianyan Sect deliberately increased the difficulty of the Heart Demon Tower, in order to let my disciples gain more benefits in the process. If it were really an ordinary tribulation, how could I be so difficult. Neither of them was in a hurry, and they still sat down and rested after they woke up.

During this period, Tang Xiwen thought of the embarrassing situation just now, and explained in a ghostly manner.

"Is this going to be the first time that it won't work? Next, you can only exchange merit for a chance to do it again? Chen Ping thought that Senior Sister Guan had previously introduced that every disciple only had one chance to experience the tribulation for free in his life.

"That's right, but if it's for the sake of the tribulation, it takes very little merit to do it again. Almost every Jindan monk could afford it. ”

"This is not the most troublesome, the most troublesome thing is that if you fail in the first tribulation, the sect will think that your state of mind is unqualified, even if you succeed the second time, you will be forcibly assigned some tasks that can sharpen your state of mind afterwards, and those tasks are likely to be dangerous tasks that others are not willing to go to. As a result, events have occurred from time to time. "Tang Xiwen has a relative.

I have to say that this system is still designed by chicken thieves.

That is, it provides the Heart Demon Tower to strengthen the state of mind of the monk.

It can also ensure that some unpopular tasks can be carried out smoothly.

They are all capitalists.

After the two recovered, they continued to the third floor.

The third layer is different from the first two layers, it is the layer of illusion.

That is to say, Chen Ping himself does not need to move, he only needs to sit in place, and when he falls into the illusion, he can successfully complete this layer of experience by resisting the incoming spiritual attack in his state of mind.

This layer was also difficult, but Chen Ping and Tang Xiwen both walked down smoothly.

The moment he stepped out of the third floor, Chen Ping breathed a long sigh of relief.

'It can be regarded as officially passing the Jindan Tribulation. ’

After experiencing these three layers of tempering, the state of mind has been greatly improved, and when cultivating normally, you will no longer fall into the illusion inexplicably. It's much safer. ’

As for the next few layers, that's a plus. ’

"Senior Brother Chen, congratulations, you successfully passed the Jindan Tribulation." As soon as Chen Ping walked out of the third floor, Senior Sister Guan's voice came.

She leaned lazily against the stone door, arms around her chest.

"Why is Senior Sister Guan here?" Chen Ping walked over.

"I heard that the tower master said that you should be almost complete the three-story tribulation, so I came to see you in advance. Anyway, my senior sister brought you in, if you want to have three long and two short, then Lingchun can't fight with me. Senior Sister Guan smiled.

Chen Ping always felt that she was a bit hypocritical when she said this.

But there is no evidence.

Before Chen Ping could answer, Senior Sister Guan saw Tang Xiwen walking out of it, and her whole person immediately became a lot more energetic, no longer lazily leaning on the stone gate, but straightened up all of a sudden:

"Yo, Senior Brother Tang is also there? It's not easy, just your mentality actually walked out of the Tribulation Tower. How? Did your calves tremble when you walked the second floor? ”

Tang Xiwen's old face turned red all of a sudden:

"What calf tremors? Senior Sister Guan, don't you want to talk nonsense? Senior brother, my heart is strong, and my calves will tremble? Don't spread the word and ruin my reputation. You ask Chen Daoyou, will my calves tremble? ”

Senior Sister Guan smiled:

"Hehe, didn't tremble? I'm afraid that as soon as you walked over the first floor, the suspension bridge was eaten up by the demons, right? ”

"Senior Sister Guan, if you don't have any evidence, you don't want to smear people's innocence out of thin air." Tang Xiwen's cheeks flushed and protested loudly.

“.”

A flock of black crows flew in front of Chen Ping's forehead.

He can see that Senior Sister Guan came to see that he was fake, and it is estimated that he heard that Tang Xiwen was also going through the calamity, and he may even be a little unaccustomed to Tang Xiwen's ridicule and deliberately staying here.

This senior sister is really!

Just this point, it is simply carved out of the same mold as Master Xiyue.

It is worthy of being a master and apprentice.
