Prologue
"Click", a bucket-thick white lightning smashed into the mountain protection array, at the moment of electric contact, the colorful luster on the mountain protection array appeared, and the flashing electric light poured on the colorful array like flowing water, little by little, a little along the large array reflected the colorful light, and finally fell to the stone ground under the mountain array, and disappeared without a trace.
The dark clouds outside the sky that were shaken by the thunder slowly gathered again, and the gloomy xiangxia pressed down, and the sky seemed to be a little darker than before the lightning.
In the Danfang at the top of the mountaintop, four middle-aged Taoist priests were sitting cross-legged in front of the quaint red door, and the Bagua Array Talisman carved on the door was shining with golden light. Everyone was holding a dark array plate in their hands, the faces of the four were serious and solemn, and there were dozens of Taoist priests with flying swords on their backs outside them, guarding the Danfang in various directions.
The setting in the Dan room seems to be a closed cave, but the space is much larger, in the middle is a three-legged and four-sacred beast Dan furnace, the top of the Dan furnace facing the sky of the dome, a white luster blazing flame descended from the sky, scattered in the four directions of the Dan furnace.
There was also a thick black flame scattered under the Dan furnace, and on the opposite side of the Dan furnace, a Taoist priest with a cloak pinched the trick with both hands, and a yellow luster tangible flame gushed out from the trick, and it also converged in the four sides of the Dan furnace.
The four fire mouths of the Dan furnace are carved with the green dragon, the white tiger, the red bird, the Xuanwu, each divine beast has a crystal clear color bead of different colors in the mouth, and the white, black and yellow flames emitted from the top, middle and lower three places pass through the four fire ports evenly, and the surroundings of the Dan furnace faintly exude a purple luster.
The scattered hair on Tianyanzi's forehead was gently swept away by the spiritual wind outside the Dan furnace, and a pair of quiet eyes flashed with a calm light, and the yellow flame in the hand was controlling the fire at will, so as to grasp the same even fire power as the fire of heaven and earth, so as not to heat the elixir in the Dan furnace unevenly.
"Whew", Tian Yanzi let out a sigh of relief, the spirit trick in his hand changed, the luster of the yellow flame gradually dimmed, and the black and white flames gradually slowed down, until the three flames were completely extinguished, and a faint fragrance overflowed from the Dan furnace to his nose.
Tian Yanzi suddenly got up, a faint smile appeared on his tired face, and a few faint wrinkles crawled out of the corners of his eyes and forehead, he spent hundreds of years for this furnace spirit tribulation pill, each elixir was equipped by himself, and it was put into the Dan furnace for three years.
It can be said that each of the elixirs used can be said to be heavenly and earthly treasures in the cultivation realm, coupled with the unique fire of heaven and earth in the sect, he, the Dandao master in the cultivation realm, has refined a furnace of the legendary Spirit Tribulation Pill, which has also consumed nearly seventy percent of his vitality, and his strength has also dropped by a whole realm, and he is now estimated to be difficult to achieve even the strength of the middle stage of the cave in the late Mahayana stage.
However, these are all secondary, after the cultivation of the pill, a few decades of his cultivation can completely make up for the loss of this alchemy, but the refining of this Spirit Tribulation Pill is a major event for him related to the future tribulation.
According to the records of the Dan Sutra, the Spirit Tribulation Pill is divided into three grades, the lower grade of the pill can increase the probability of nearly thirty percent when crossing the tribulation, and the middle grade of the pill is increased to sixty percent, and the most powerful high-grade pill can be increased to ninety, if you take the top grade of the Spirit Tribulation Pill, it is estimated that as long as you are a cultivator in the tribulation period, you will almost directly enter the threshold of the immortals.
According to Xinxiang's judgment just now, the pill in the Dan furnace should have been successfully refined, as for which of the upper, middle and lower three products it is, it can only be seen after half an hour that the pill condensation type is baked, but three years have passed, and now this half hour is not a wait at all.
"Click", there is another lightning bolt outside the mountain protection array, the power of this lightning is obviously greater than the previous one, it is enough to have the thickness of the water tank outside the door of the Taoist palace, and the foundation of the mountain protection array is also shaking for a while, the middle-aged Taoist priest outside the door of the Danfang has a more solemn face, and the array plate in his hand also faintly sounds.
A white light flashed, and as soon as the wind started, a middle-aged Taoist girl in white appeared outside the Dan room, there was no wrinkle on her fair face, and a pair of slightly slender eyes flashed under the curved willow eyebrows.
Although the four middle-aged Taoist priests did not get up, a look of awe appeared on their faces and said, "Senior Aunt Jingyun." ”
The Dao Gu named Jingyun nodded slightly and asked, "Is your master still inside?"
The middle-aged Taoist priest hesitated slightly, and one of the outermost Taoist priests said, "Master has been refining pills inside, is there anything wrong with my aunt coming here today?"
Jingyun walked towards the Danfang and said, "Today is the Zuihou day of the three-year period of alchemy, I will go and take care of my senior brother." ”
Several middle-aged Taoist priests subconsciously revealed a road, but when the satisfied expression on Jingyun's face just flashed, a middle-aged Taoist priest closest to the door of the Danfang suddenly blocked the door and said: "Senior aunt, three years ago, the master ordered that no one should enter the Danfang for a single step, and I asked my aunt to wait outside." ”
Jingyun's face sank and said, "Senior Brother handed over the entire Dumen Sect to me to manage back then, and today I came to greet Senior Brother, so I can make you noisy here." As he spoke, he walked slowly towards the Danfang.
The middle-aged Taoist priest did not back down in the slightest, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Master just handed over the affairs of the sect to my aunt, and the rules of the Danfang are naturally not among them, and I also ask my aunt to go down the mountain and wait, so as not to blame the master." ”
"Hehe, Jingyun, I see that you are just like this in the sect, a junior can talk to you like this. At this time, a gloomy voice sounded behind Jing Yun, and as he spoke, the figure of a man in black gradually appeared in the transparent air.
The faces of the four middle-aged Taoist priests changed at the same time, and they quickly put away the array plate, and a sword light appeared from each side, and the middle-aged Taoist priest who spoke just now also lost his voice at this time: "What person? Aunt Jingyun, you actually brought outsiders to the Danfang, quickly, set up the formation." ”
"Haha, haha" After the man in black laughed wildly, the disciples standing outside all lay down on the ground softly, and the man in black waved his sleeves, and four white rays of light shot at the four middle-aged Taoist priests: "I am the medicine king of Potions Valley, and the Holy Yan Mountain will be mine in the future." ”
The four middle-aged Taoist priests had the same mind, their respective sword lights flashed, and a colorful circle of light suddenly blocked the white light outside, and after the two dissipated, Jingyun's face sank, and a red brocade ribbon in his hand suddenly became longer, instantly binding the four people, and with a wave of his right hand, the four people who were tied together flew down five zhang away.
Jingyun then pressed the golden gossip array talisman on the door with his hand, and after a slight turn, the array talisman instantly turned into a few strands of ash and fell down, and the door of the Danfang also opened.
Tian Yanzi turned around and saw Jingyun and the man in black, he couldn't help but be stunned, and asked with a serious face: "Jingyun, what are you doing here?" Suddenly he felt that the breath of the man in black was a little familiar, and suddenly his face changed: "Lu Songshan, how did you come up?"
"Haha" Lu Songshan, the man in black, said: "Tianyan, I heard that you have refined the Spirit Tribulation Pill, as a companion, I specially came to congratulate you, and by the way, I also took something away." ”
Tianyanzi said angrily: "Jingyun, why are you with this demon in Potions Valley, have you forgotten the door rules?"
Jingyun's face suddenly distorted, and his hoarse voice said with hatred: "Door rules, am I still a member of the Yundan Sect?" Three volumes of Danshu, you only taught me the first volume, if it weren't for my penance cultivation of sword techniques over the years, and my cultivation to the merger stage, I would have been laughed at by those juniors in the sect long ago." ”
"Senior brother, do you know how I have cultivated over the years? Ordinary disciples have refined better pills than me, they can comfortably exchange them for sufficient spirit stones and suitable exercises, but what about me? From the Yuan Infant Stage to the present, which layer of the realm is not fought by nine deaths and a lifetime, for the sake of a blood marrow grass, I was chased by people for three months, and when I returned to the mountain gate, I passed out and was carried back. ”
"Your second apprentice Qu Yi, just past the Yuan Infant Period, has refined a furnace of pills in two years, in exchange for nine blood marrow grasses, who in our Yundanmen does not know about this, who does not treat me as a joke, I know that they have been laughing at me in their hearts, and I have been patient, and finally let me wait until this day. Jingyun gritted his teeth.
Tian Yanzi shook his head solemnly and said: "Senior sister, you have been taught you exercises by my master on behalf of you since you were a child, but your congenital Dan root is broken, so I have no choice but to let you practice swordsmanship, but your Dao heart is persistent, and you have the opportunity to succeed in crossing the tribulation." ”
The hatred on Jingyun's face became heavier and heavier: "Dangen, you lie to the ghosts, none of the classics I have found mention Dangen, over the years, I have also figured it out, the rules of the cultivation world are the law of the jungle, I was weak before, so I have no right to say anything, today I should have the qualifications to speak." ”
Tianyanzi sighed and said: "You are right, when I came out of the Dan, my cultivation was the weakest, but you brought outsiders here, what do you want?"
Lu Songshan next to him said twice: "Tianyan, this can only be blamed for your usual accumulation of power, today I came, I have already discussed with Jingyun, she wants the Spirit Tribulation Pill, I want this Holy Yan Mountain, I am looking forward to it, I don't know if with this fire of heaven and earth, I can also try to refine the Spirit Tribulation Pill." ”
Tianyanzi said angrily: "You slut, you want to destroy the foundation of this sect, I was really blind at the beginning, and taught you the Tao. ”
Jingyun's expression calmed down and said, "Senior brother, as long as you abandon your cultivation and let this Holy Yan Mountain out, Senior Sister can let you live in order to repay the teachings of these years." ”
As soon as he said this, suddenly the lid of the Dan furnace slipped open, and a dazzling white light rose out, and the entire Dan room suddenly emitted an intoxicating fragrance, Lu Songshan couldn't help but look at the round pill in the white light and said: "The best spirit tribulation pill, it is really the best spirit tribulation pill." ”
Tianyanzi "haha" laughed wildly: "Being able to refine the best elixir is not in vain for me to spend so many years of effort, if you want to get these, dream about it." ”
Lu Songshan suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed greatly: "Stop him, he wants to explode." ”
When Jingyun heard the words "Explosive Pill", a flying sword suddenly appeared in his right hand, stabbing directly at Tianyanzi, but it was too late at this time, all of Tianyanzi's divine consciousness had already entered the Spirit Tribulation Pill, and the strong aura in the best pill together with the fire of heaven and earth outside the Dan furnace exploded instantly.
A white light flashed, reflecting the desperate expressions of Jingyun and Lusong Mountain, and the entire top of the mountain where the Danfang was located suddenly turned into nothing, not even a fine powder was left, only a white pill core burst open, like a meteor with a wisp of Tianyanzi's divine consciousness across the sky.
The strong vitality broke through the vast space, and the white core disappeared without a trace in a flash.
