Chapter 58: The Past Is Like Smoke

"Who?" Hua Lanting suddenly stood up.

"I've never heard of it. As he spoke, a figure appeared in the air, slightly illusory but extremely real, with a long robe, three strands of long hair under his chin, and his face was exactly the same as several portraits in the array.

"Hell!" Hua Lanting was shocked.

"Really?" he reached out to touch, but there was nothing in his hand, it was an illusion!

Lao Dao spoke: "Don't touch it again, men and men don't kiss, Benjun came with a high-dimensional projection technique, it's not the body, you can't catch it." ”

Hua Lanting quickly calmed down and said, "How do I know that this is not an illusion, you, aren't you dead for hundreds of years?

Lao Dao smiled: "Stinky boy, imagination is rich enough." I don't have much time, and I am very emotional to revisit the old place today, why don't I tell you a story first? ”

Hua Lanting saw that Ping Rongce seemed to be just asleep, and calmed down again, thinking that if he came, he would be safe, and the other party seemed to have no malicious intentions, so he might as well listen to what this ghost old Taoist said, so he said: "Okay, then you can sit down too, the kid listens." ”

Lao Dao floated down and said, "I have a story, do you have wine?"

Hua Lanting said in his heart You really have a lot of business, took out a jar of Yi Liunian from the Qingyan Jade and opened it with Jian Nanchun, poured two bowls, and said, "Can ghosts also drink?" ”

Lao Dao scolded with a smile: "I, you are a ghost who was almost bombarded into scum by the thunder, this gentleman is a dignified prince of the fairy world, although you can't drink the wine, it is good to smell it." Emma, it's still the smell of wine in the mortal world. ”

Hua Lanting simply let go, took a sip of wine and suppressed the shock for himself, thinking that if he had something to say, he would say that he would fart quickly, but when he said it, he became: "Hello Xianjun, I am fortunate to be happy, and I wish to hear it in detail." ”

Lao Dao shrugged his nose and smacked his mouth, and after a while, he said again:

"Don't smell your wine in vain, but give you a clear answer, lest you become suspicious. This monarch has ascended to immortality, and he is indeed the king of the fairy world, and in the early years, I was the one who was the six absolute true people of the Dao Dynasty. ”

"The space above Wulan Mountain is one of the nodes where many lower planes meet, small is a little smaller, it's a node anyway, otherwise why are the clouds and mist and thunder so dense? Let's make a long story short, the story is like this. ”

"Six hundred years ago, in the Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave of Dongsheng Shenzhou Aolai Kingdom, I was wrong, I smelled the wine in the mortal world and was a little dizzy, and I came again. ”

"More than six hundred years ago, four immortal cultivators came to Wulan Mountain and stopped here, each of them had their own strengths, but only one disciple was accepted, you must have guessed that it was me. Benjun is talented, diligent and studious, and has to pass on his skills. Later, my teacher passed away, and I called myself Wusanga, and opened a sect here, that is, the Wulan Yunxian Sect. ”

"At that time, I had already cultivated the Fog Lock Yunlan Gong to the seventh layer, that is, the Wenyang Realm, and I had accepted four disciples of Chu, Wu, and Han Leng. I'm a martial idiot, I'm single-minded, and I don't spend too much time on them. At that time, I encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation, and I often went out to travel in search of opportunities for breakthroughs, that is, I met the three brothers of the Hei family during a trip, not to mention it. ”

"Before I met them, when I was exploring a secret realm, I went through the crisis of life and death and skillfully obtained a technique and a set of formations, the formation is this Shun and Reverse Eight Poles Cloud Light Great Array, the exercise is called Ziwei Star Dou Guan Tianjue. I think you should nod secretly at this time, yes, this exercise has a lot to do with the Ziwei Doushu you have learned, and it is a miracle skill. Don't ask me how I know you know how to count Ziwei Doushu, listen to it first. ”

"After I returned to the mountain, I handed over all the affairs of the sect to the four disciples to take care of, and I practiced these two miraculous skills without sleep or food. The Eight Extreme Arrays are fine, but this Heaven Viewing Determination is very peculiar, it is only suitable for cultivation beginners, I was already at the peak of the Cultivation Realm at that time, and I practiced on this basis, every time I entered the Heaven Viewing Determination, my Fog Lock Cloud Lan Gong would fall to a realm. ”

"My masters only have the first seven layers of the Fog Lock Yun Lan Gong, after I finish cultivating, I can only grope forward by myself, at that time I have already had some understanding of the eighth layer and created myself, but for some reason, my cultivation has not advanced for many years, and the Heaven Viewing Decision is much more advanced than it, which is why I would rather cultivate the Heaven Viewing Decision than to fall back and cultivate the Heaven Viewing Decision. ”

"In this way, one ascending and one descending, by the time I had cultivated to the third level, my actual cultivation had already returned to the cultivation stage of my own realm, which was only slightly higher than my four disciples. Originally, this was nothing, but when I decided to cultivate to the seventh layer or higher, I would still be a powerful cultivator on one side. ”

"However, the world is impermanent, and the heavens do not fulfill people's wishes. When I was young, I was simple by nature, and when I accepted apprentices, I only looked at my qualifications and failed to review my character. At that time, I was dedicated to cultivation and lived in a secluded house, only four disciples sometimes came to take care of my daily life, and I didn't guard against them, and as a result, I was seen to be clueless. ”

"The four rebels have long been resentful of my long-term self-care and repeated attempts to ask for permission and I have no time to pass on the exercises. They conspired to collude with the other three forces in Wulan Mountain, intending to capture me and force me to hand over the high-level mental method. ”

"On the day of the attack, the four disciples were afraid of my majesty in the past, and they did not directly participate in it at first, but opened the mountain protection array and let the heads of the three forces enter the peak to raid. Where would my cultivation at that time be the enemy of the three masters joining forces, and I was soon seriously injured, but fortunately, I was successful in studying the Eight Great Arrays, and the formation was launched at the critical moment to trap the three of them, and the launch of the Great Array also absorbed the Wulan Spirit Vein. ”

"The name of the Eight Great Arrays is Shun and Bad, and it has two effects, both positive and negative, attacking the enemy and protecting against it. But there is a drawback, the reverse practitioner himself will also be trapped in the formation, unless the skill is high enough to break the protection of the large array before going out. ”

"After the formation began, the three opponents were fascinated by the Eight Extremes Trace, Shun and Reverse Psychedelia, Cloud Light Ecstasy, and Swastika Ecstasy Technique, and finally beat each other to death, and after I was seriously injured, I forcibly activated the formation, and my cultivation was almost completely wasted, and I was trapped in the inner underground palace. ”

"At this time, the four apprentices came in and forced me to hand over the high-level exercises of the Fog Lock Yunlan Gong. At that time, they couldn't break the formation and couldn't enter the dungeon, and I couldn't get out. I could have left it alone. “

"But after the conversation, although I hate their behavior of deceiving the ancestors and judging the teacher, on the one hand, I feel guilty for my carelessness in choosing disciples, accepting disciples and not teaching them, and I am also very responsible for the formation of this situation; Therefore, I made an agreement with them. ”

"The content is that I first gave them the fifth layer of the Fog Lock Cloud Lan Gong, and after a hundred years, whether I die or not, they can obtain the sixth layer of the mental method with the spirit treasure weapon that has been passed down to them, and this will continue, and so will they and their descendants. ”

"My thought at the time was that everything depends on fate. My life and death are uncertain, and they will not live forever, no matter how many generations they can last, the Wulan lineage may be passed on on this way, and I am worthy of the master. In addition, the Eight Extremes Array can absorb the spiritual veins and spiritual qi to nurture spirit stones on their own, which is also a resource for their future cultivation. ”

"After I finished the deal with the four of them, they went their separate ways. I couldn't go out of the battle, and my muscles and veins were seriously damaged under the serious injury, but fortunately, the aura in the formation was abundant, and there were juvenile snow night fan palm flowers to eat. For the next hundred years, I tried to re-cultivate while healing. During the hundred years of loneliness, I think that even I admire my great perseverance to survive. ”

"A hundred years later, although my injuries have recovered, due to the injury to the foundation, the cultivation progress is extremely slow, although there is a small success, the spiritual sense has been able to penetrate the formation to explore the surroundings, but it is still not enough to break through the Eight Extreme Array of this level. ”

"At the end of the 100-year period, the four of them are still alive, and I watched them come back separately to obtain exercises and spiritual vein resources, but then something happened again. ”

"My fourth disciple Leng Qiuyan is a woman, and she and her second disciple Wu Haosheng have long been in love, but they haven't told me out of fear. After taking the treasure, the two of them became greedy, they did not dare to deal with the eldest disciple surnamed Chu, who had the highest skill, but joined forces to hunt down and kill the third disciple Han Zhenqing, thinking of swallowing a share of Han Zhenqing's resources. ”

"I can see clearly through the release of spiritual sense, Han Zhenqing was injured and fell off the cliff, and after that, I don't know whether he is alive or dead. ”

It has been explained in the book that Han Zhenqing later died, and the Izumo halberd and the secret were obtained by Qu Liu. As for Leng Wu, Wu Haosheng has a romantic temperament, and later because of wanton wandering in the flowers, Leng Qiuyan broke up with him in a fit of anger, and then Wu Haosheng had a conflict with someone and was killed by a hired murderer, and the relics were obtained by Xiang Tianwen's father and son, and Leng Qiuyan passed down a Liuyun Sword alone, until Shu Rong and Yu Dahu were here.

The Asanga-man went on to say:

"In the hundreds of years since then, I don't know who has come to take the exercises and spirit stones, because I soon had a new opportunity. ”

"The day they took the treasure coincided with the day of thunder and thunder in Wulan Mountain. Everyone knows about this phenomenon, but no one knows the reason, and no one cares about it. At that time, my strength had recovered, and I couldn't get out of the formation, but I was able to walk in the formation. In the middle of the night I came to the dome where you had just been struck by lightning to watch the thunder. ”

"In fact, you can't experience the taste of a hundred years of loneliness alone. Now that I think about it, I was already in a state of madness, really people are not like ghosts, and I saw the infighting of my disciples and the greedy side of human nature, my emotions were suppressed to the extreme of exploding, so a crazy thought appeared in my mind irrepressibly. ”

"This idea is - military liberation!"

"The Taoist method of military interpretation has existed since ancient times. But those who have some faith, no matter what they believe, mostly believe that after death, the soul has another place. Some say that the human form and spirit of self-liberation are destroyed and scattered, and they can no longer be superborn, some say that even if they are reborn, they can only support plants, trees, flowers and insects, and it is difficult to be a person, and some say that people who have not cultivated the original god will become lonely souls and wild ghosts after military liberation, and can only wander forever. ”

"In short, unless there are a very small number of people who know the way, or those who are extremely resentful and ignore it, and those who are passive soldiers, it is easy for no one to take this path. I was obviously insane, and I was afraid of what it would be like to be alone for another hundred years. In this way, I decided to take a risk, and the consequences were no longer in my consideration. ”

"Bing Jie, just a general term, there are blades or hydrolysis, fire hydrolysis, and autopsy, and thunder tribulation is naturally possible. So, it's your turn to be struck by lightning, but this gentleman is much more experienced than you, do you want me to pass you on both hands? ”

Hua Lanting was listening attentively, and when he heard this, the painful pain and memories brought by the scorch marks that were still on his body were immediately hooked, and the pain made him shiver several times in succession.

Looking at the illusory projection body with a sinister smile on the face of the old man in front of him, Hua Lanting couldn't help but be frightened by this joke, and his face was colorless.
