Chapter Twenty-Six: The Tribulation
"Boom!"
The road ahead, Yang Fan is getting more and more frightened, as Yang Fan gets closer and closer to the destination, the sky at this moment is no longer dark clouds, but slowly transformed into blood red, and the sky is full of blood clouds, giving Yang Fan a very depressed feeling, even if Yang Fan has now broken through to the foundation building period, it is also the first time to feel the power of this heaven and earth, this sense of depression, if it is not for Yang Fan has experienced many life and death crises in the past six months, even if he is still in the realm of the foundation building period, I am afraid that his strength will be greatly reduced under the power of heaven and earth, and all aspects of ability will also be suppressed, so, this is a kind of sublimation!
Yang Fan looked at the more and more terrifying energy between heaven and earth, and his heart became more and more anxious, he didn't know what the strength of the Dan period was, but since he was promoted to the foundation building period, his strength has also made a qualitative breakthrough, and his physical body has also undergone a reorganization and is comparable to the strength of a weapon, if it is an ordinary martial artist in the same realm, even if he stands to fight the other party, it will not cause him much damage, which is also the source of his strong confidence after he is promoted to the foundation building.
But even now, even if he has reached such strength, after feeling such a heavenly might, he still has a sense of awe, and secretly sighs that the heavenly power is really mighty.
Thinking of this, Yang Fan once again increased his speed and galloped away.
Two hours later, a dull loud bang suddenly came from the sky.
"Boom!"
This was like the thunder of dawn, hitting the depths of Yang Fan's heart.
"Father, hold on. ”
Yang Fan looked in that direction a little nervously, and once again sped up in the direction of Yang Dinglong's tribulation.
......
This place is extremely desolate, there are poisonous insects, poisonous snakes, and some poisonous monsters that live here and even faintly see miasma, so to speak, this is a paradise for all poisons.
But there are some places where it seems to be a Jedi, but it contains the truth of the Great Dao, and it seems to be a place where there is no possibility of survival, but it is pregnant with a glimmer of life.
This is the case with Yang Dinglong's choice of the place of the catastrophe.
It is surrounded by mountains and is surrounded by miasma, which is not very thick, but because of its particularity, it seems to be separated from the rest of the world and has its own boundary.
Because in addition to dealing with all kinds of poisons every day, there is also the particularity of the environment here, but because the miasma around it exists here all the time, the creatures that have adapted to such an environment depend on it to survive, and they can't leave such a strange place, although it will not be impossible to survive, but the scope of improving their strength will also be greatly reduced.
However, even if the creatures from the outside world can enter here, they will also be suppressed in various ways, and they cannot stay here for a long time, otherwise these miasma will be harmful and unprofitable if they are inhaled into the body.
However, it is such a place that naturally derives a formation, this formation is not a heaven and earth strange formation, but it is very suitable for the avenue of heaven and earth.
And Yang Dinglong wanted to use the fit between this formation and heaven and earth to preach, and break through the Dan period here in one fell swoop.
Before the knot, no matter how strong the combat power is, it is at most a martial artist, no matter how strong it is, it can only be said to be a martial artist with strong combat effectiveness, not an immortal admired by the world, what is an immortal?
Because after people reach the Dan period, not only can they fly in the sky, but they can also take the enemy's head with a sword hundreds of miles away, which makes people unguardable, this is the power of the immortals, not only that, but the masters of the Dan period also have a variety of magical powers, including the magic powers that come from the comprehension of the avenue of heaven and earth, and the spells that can be cast naturally after reaching this strength, these spells may not be anything in the same introduction, but they are fatal under the knot, which is why there has always been a saying among the martial artists: Yuan Ying does not come out, and all ants under the knot Dan also come from this。
"Boom!" At this moment, the sky was thundering, but it had not yet fallen, Yang Dinglong looked at the sky indifferently, looking up to the sky.
The blood cloud in the sky seemed to have a spirit, and it was also brewing, intending to kill Yang Dinglong in one fell swoop, but Yang Dinglong's indifference was like a naked provocation, and the rolling blood cloud immediately responded to Yang Dinglong's provocation with a furious thunder, and a thunder in the blood cloud immediately shot straight towards Yang Dinglong.
"Boom!"
"Boom!" The roar of thunder echoed for hundreds of miles around, and the surrounding birds and beasts trembled and fell to the ground, frightened.
The speed of this catastrophe is so fast, the sound has just risen, it has already descended to the head of Yang Dinglong's head several meters high, the scene looks from the outside, quite spectacular, like the Dinghai Divine Needle descending from the sky, and Yang Dinglong, even if he is indifferent, at this time it is also very solemn, his eyes are unprecedentedly dignified, saying that it is too late and that is fast, I saw Yang Dinglong sacrifice three Xuantie swords in a straight line and go straight to the heavenly thunder, but the Xuantie Sword is a mortal thing after all, how can it compete with the heavenly thunder with heavenly might.
"Click, click, click" The three Xuantie swords collapsed in response, although they were only blocked for a moment, but they also effectively weakened the power of the heavenly thunder.
Yang Dinglong didn't pay attention to the collapse of the three Xuantie swords, but quickly pinched the trick with both hands, and one after another was used by Yang Dinglong, and in just a moment, Yang Dinglong cast ten magic decisions, but the heavenly thunder bombarded all the way down.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
......
Yang Dinglong's magic spells continued to collapse and burst out in this roar, and in a blink of an eye, these spells were blown clean, but at this time, the heavenly thunder had already dimmed, but the power was still not to be underestimated, although it was no longer able to cause any substantial damage to Yang Dinglong, but it was still easy to deal with ordinary masters in the foundation building period.
Yang Dinglong watched the heavenly thunder come straight to him, he quickly condensed the law and raised his hand to blast towards the heavenly thunder, with a roar, Yang Dinglong stepped back a few steps, and looked at the rolling blood clouds in the sky with a pale face, although there were only three heavenly thunders in the Dan period, but now the first heavenly thunder has made Yang Dinglong a little unbearable.
He quickly took out a small jade bottle from his arms, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, and he gently poured out a crimson pill from it, looking at the pill in front of him After some struggle in his heart, he finally gritted his teeth and his face was full of firmness, and swallowed it fiercely, Yang Dinglong looked at the sky, and a little blood gradually appeared in his eyes, obviously he didn't expect this heavenly thunder to be so powerful, and this is only the first way.
At this time, Yang Dinglong's heart was spinning, he could resist the second thunder, but the power of this thunder was greater than he imagined, and the consumption was far beyond his expectations at the beginning, if it continued like this, he would definitely die under the third thunder, thinking of this, he couldn't help but have some regrets in his heart, he looked up at the wind Qingyang in the distance, the wind Qingyang was also sweating on his forehead, it was really not like this when he crossed the tribulation, the first heavenly thunder began to consume most of the internal force, and when he resisted the second heavenly thunder, he had to take pills, which is really not as good as the sky。
Yang Dinglong has a lot of regrets, he still has many things to do, so he doesn't want to die yet, this does not mean that he is afraid of death, in fact, Yang Dinglong is not greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Alas, Fan'er, if my father can't survive this catastrophe, my son must live well!" Yang Dinglong turned his head to look into the distance, which was the direction in which Yang Fan had gone deep into the wilderness.
It's just that this situation and this scene can't allow Yang Dinglong to have the slightest feeling of longing, and the blood cloud in the sky also came down with a loud bang and boom, Yang Dinglong's hands pinched together, and the magic power of each exercise, one by one, was all beaten out by Yang Dinglong's brain, and the power was much greater than when the first heavenly thunder was displayed, it can be seen that this time Yang Dinglong has no reservations.
"Boom!"
"Click!"
"Bump!"
......
But no matter how many magical powers or spells Yang Dinglong cast, they were all wiped out at the touch, and they fell with an unstoppable trend.
Yang Dinglong's face immediately changed, and at the same time he made a certain decision, his face was solemn, and his hands pinched again.
"Get up!" As Yang Dinglong shouted, then the light around him flashed, and a layer of milky white light instantly condensed around him, almost the moment the light enveloped Yang Dinglong, the thunder fell violently.
"Magnetic, magnetic. Unexpectedly, there was no loud collision, but two by two canceled each other, this layer of milky white light is Yang Dinglong's years of studying various classics through the continuous deduction of chess, the strongest magic power comprehended, is also a formation, although it is not very perfect at present, but the power is not something that ordinary people can compete with.
It's just that this formation requires a lot of mana to maintain, Yang Dinglong is already in a state where he is almost exhausted, and at this moment, in order to continue to maintain this damn formation, Yang Dinglong didn't last long, and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out.
"Brother Yang!" Feng Qingyang looked anxious outside, but he couldn't interfere, otherwise the crisis of the catastrophe would not only not be resolved, but would also lead to Feng Qingyang's involvement.
"Father!" Yang Fan saw everything happening in front of him from a distance, and was rushing over from far and near.
Yang Dinglong's originally dull eyes gradually glowed when he heard Yang Fan's voice.
"Sail ......"
"Sail"
"Little Sail"
Yang Dinglong and Feng Qingyang shouted almost at the same time.
"Father!"
Yang Fan was about to rush over when he saw the situation in front of him, and as soon as the wind cleared, he came to Yang Fan's side and said, "Xiaofan, don't go over, your father is in a catastrophe." ”
"But, Grandpa Feng, Father is in danger now. Yang Fan asked incomprehensibly.
Feng Qingyang didn't know the situation Yang Dinglong was facing now, even if he was anxious in his heart, he was just as helpless.
"Xiaofan, don't worry, your father is fine at the moment. Feng Qingyang forced himself to calmly explain Yang Dinglong's current situation to Yang Fan.
Yang Fan's appearance not only surprised Feng Qingyang. It also surprised Yang Dinglong, because they saw that Yang Fan's strength had reached the foundation building period, which was only more than half a year after Yang Fan left Bihu Villa, not only that, but Yang Fan also broke their cognition, the physical cultivation they knew could not even reach the innate realm, let alone the physical cultivation of the foundation building period.
If they knew that Yang Fan was not only a physical cultivator now, but also a master of internal strength, I don't know how wonderful their expressions would be, but obviously now is not the time to say this.
Feng Qingyang looked at Yang Fan and Xiao Feng who was sticking to Yang Fan with a complicated expression, and sighed: "Xiao Fan has grown up, your father just consumed too much, and he didn't suffer any harm. ”
"What does it mean that the consumption is too much?" Yang Fan said stunned.
Feng Qingyang turned his head and looked solemnly at Yang Dinglong's Heavenly Tribulation, and passed all the preparations originally arranged and the changes in this Tribulation to Yang Fan with a spiritual idea, Yang Fan was startled after the thought entered his body, but then calmed down, and then his expression continued to change, and Yang Fan understood what was going on.
Yang Fan's mind turned sharply, and suddenly thought that he still had two lotus seeds, this lotus seed Yang Fan didn't know if it had any effect on Yang Dinglong, because he used three lotus seeds to break through to the foundation building period, and it was extremely dangerous, although these lotus seeds contained a large amount of the essence of heaven and earth spiritual power condensed, but these lotus seeds had little effect on him, if he wanted to use these lotus seeds to make a breakthrough again, it was impossible, but it was used to restore his own internal force Yang Fan believed that the problem was not big.
Thinking of this, Yang Fan hurriedly took out the only two lotus seeds from his arms, and said loudly to Yang Dinglong: "Father, give." He yelled and threw over.
"Smack. ”
Yang Dinglong looked for prestige, nodded at Yang Fan after taking the lotus seeds, and without saying a word, he put one of the lotus seeds into his mouth.
At this moment, the heavenly thunder seemed to be brewing the final blow, so it didn't fall in a hurry.
Yang Dinglong glanced at Yang Fan and Feng Qingyang's nervous appearance, didn't pay too much attention, and quickly sat down cross-legged and quickly ran the exercises to refine this lotus seed, and the majestic spiritual power frantically poured into Yang Dinglong's dantian for it to absorb, in just a few breaths, Yang Dinglong recovered five or six points, if it wasn't for the Heavenly Tribulation here, he was not allowed to cultivate here, and it was not impossible for him to break through to the Jiedan.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The red clouds in the sky seemed to have finally condensed to the extreme, and the lightning and thunder looked terrifying, constantly roaring.
"Boom!"
"Whew!"
"Kill!" Unexpectedly, the formation that Yang Dinglong used was directly broken through, and a beam of light shot straight at all obstacles, and Yang Fan's face changed dramatically in the distance.
This beam of light was so fast that Yang Dinglong didn't even have time to react, and the world in front of him changed in style and became a battlefield, surrounded by smoke and floating corpses, and the scene in front of him could only be described as tragic.
Not only that, the army he led was almost completely wiped out, almost all of the survivors were old, weak, sick and disabled, there was no strength to fight again, his face was pale, his rear was full of ordinary people, the people were worried about him, and they were also afraid of him, and they didn't dare to get too close to him, because the prince in front of him had just killed the enemy to the point of madness, and the army of the Ming Dynasty in front of him seemed to be incomplete, no matter how he killed, every time he finished killing, there would be more Ming Dynasty troops pouring in, the scene was very spectacular.
At the rear of the army of the Ming Dynasty, a middle-aged man in armor shouted: "Yang Dinglong, I respect you as a character, I also have the heart to cherish talents, now I give you two choices, one is for you to submit to my dynasty and let me enter the pass with iron hooves, and the other is to use my iron hooves to step on your bones to break through the pass, and directly take your Great Song Dynasty Imperial Capital, hum, when the time comes, not only will you die, but even the people of Li who will take your guard will die, how about it? Submit to me! This is the wisest choice!"
Yang Dinglong wiped the bloodshot from the corner of his mouth and looked at the Ming Emperor coldly.
Yang Dinglong didn't know what was going on, why did this scene appear in front of him, this is really weird, and the army he led has been killed and wounded, it can be said that if he kills hard, he will definitely die.
He also found that these enemy soldiers have a black gas, Yang Dinglong has never seen such people and these strange events, and he doesn't know how it came about, he looked at the faces of these people Everyone has an evil spirit, these evil qi is attached to their bodies, although it is not invulnerable, but it makes them all fearless of death, his face is solemn looking at this group of people with hideous faces, surging like a tide of Ming army killing, his face is full of evil energy, and finally glanced at the people behind him, it doesn't matter, he saw that the whole person was startled, and a trace of clarity flashed in his mind, he saw that the bodies of these people were also bubbling with black gas and gradually began to spread, These cowardly people also began to slowly become a little evil, their faces were covered with hideous smiles, Yang Dinglong's forehead was also constantly breaking out in cold sweat at this time, at first Yang Dinglong thought he was wrong, and wiped his eyes, he found that these were true, but he felt that it was not true, he remembered that he was obviously in the catastrophe before, why did he suddenly appear in this strange battlefield.
Just when Yang Dinglong was a little confused, the lotus seed in his body seemed to play the greatest effect, after Yang Dinglong absorbed this lotus seed, his mind instantly turned into a clear, at this moment the aftermath was not gone, when he looked around again, what kind of people and enemy troops were this, not to mention his own army that was old, weak, sick and disabled and had no combat effectiveness, and some were just a little miasma and the illusion formed by the fusion of the heavenly calamity.
As Yang Dinglong became sober, he remembered that Feng Qingyang had told him before that there was a certain chance of the fourth Heavenly Tribulation appearing in the Heart Demon Tribulation, looking at the surrounding scenes, the formation was still a formation, and the miasma was still a miasma, but the red blood cloud in the sky was gradually dissipating, and he breathed a sigh of relief, this tribulation was finally over.
Looking up at Yang Fan and the wind clear, he was about to pass, when suddenly Yang Dinglong was stunned, and immediately sat down cross-legged and started to practice the exercises.
The sea of qi in Yang Dinglong's body was slowly condensing at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming a solid shape, and then it was constantly compressed, and after three hours, Yang Dinglong finally opened his eyes, and a touch of essence burst out of his eyes.
"Father!"
Seeing Yang Dinglong wake up, Yang Fan couldn't help but rush forward anymore, and came to Yang Dinglong in a flash, looking at Yang Dinglong with excitement and hope in his eyes.
"Plop"
"Fan'er knocks on his father!" Yang Fan knelt in front of Yang Dinglong, looking at his father with sideburns in front of him, the tears in Yang Fan's eyes couldn't stop starting to circle in the corners of his eyes, and he whimpered in the tone of his voice.
Feng Qingyang and Li Kui also knew that the father and son had not seen each other for so many years, and the little guy back then had not only grown up now, but also broken the shackles and became a body cultivator who broke through to the foundation building period with external strength, subverting their cognition, so they did not step forward to disturb the reunion of their father and son, leaving the next time for the father and son.
"Fan'er, hurry up. Yang Dinglong looked at the little guy in front of him with a doting face, he could imagine that Yang Fan was not treated by himself back then, and he almost never even went to see him, what kind of torment he endured alone Yang Dinglong could feel it completely, and even he had given up on this child at that time, but he didn't expect that after so many years in a blink of an eye, the little guy in the past not only grew up, but also became a master of the foundation building period who successfully cultivated with external skills.
Yang Dinglong pulled Yang Fan to his side and sat down, Xiao Feng was nothing, he jumped down directly, looked at the two people in front of him, he couldn't help but have some doubts, and his eyes were full of curiosity.
But Yang Fan is different, his father's spoiling of himself only stays in the memory of his childhood, since he went to Bihu Villa, he has never seen his father here, at this time when he met his father again, he was a little uncomfortable, he responded to the whole person is a lot more restrained.
After the two fathers and sons sat together, Yang Dinglong looked at Yang Fan carefully, and was really surprised in his heart, thinking about how long it took for Yang Fan to leave Bihu Villa, the whole person was reborn, not only that, but the strength also advanced by leaps and bounds to reach the realm of the foundation building period, Yang Dinglong couldn't help but start asking Yang Fan long and short questions to understand how he spent this time.
Yang Fan immediately wiped away the tears in his eyes, and said the experience after leaving Bihu Villa, all kinds of large and small encounters are brushed aside, but the danger Yang Dinglong can deeply understand how many life and death crises his youngest son has experienced, because these monsters are not only higher than him, but also have thick skin and thick flesh, and the slightest carelessness is death, the reason why he said it easily in front of him is that he doesn't want to worry too much, over the years, although Yang Dinglong is not by his side, but he always cares about his growth, so he is very clear about Yang Fan's temperament, but Yang Fan at that time did not have this strengthAs a father, how could Yang Dinglong not care about his son's affairs outside, but after going to the flood wilderness, the whole person seemed to evaporate from the world, completely lost his traces, to say that Yang Dinglong was not in a hurry at that time, it was impossible, but as the king of Zhennan, he could not show it in front of others, he not only had to protect the people on one side, but also calm down and not let people know that his weakness was his own children, especially his youngest son, because the eldest and the second child were basically by their side and could take care of each other, but this little son has been running away for a long time and has no corresponding strength, if he lets someone know, there will inevitably be many people who will beat him up, so he will add countless dangers to Yang Fan out of thin air, which is the last thing he wants to see.
Yang Dinglong looked at this look that became a little restrained in front of him, he chuckled, like a child who had done something wrong, and didn't dare to speak out, and finally Yang Dinglong broke the silent atmosphere and said: "Fan'er, you have lost weight, but you have also grown up, and you are a real man." ”
"Wow...... Woo ...... "Yang Fan really couldn't help it anymore when he heard this, wasn't his efforts over the years just for his father's words and recognition?"
Now that my father finally approves me, all the grievances in my heart over the years have disappeared.
He cried loudly, and couldn't help but bury his head in Yang Dinglong's arms, Yang Dinglong looked at Yang Fan so old and coquettish, and his heart was full of emotion and crying and laughing, Feng Qingyang and Li Kui in the distance also smiled bitterly when they saw this scene, and silently retreated into the distance, leaving this space to the father and son.
......
Yang Dinglong patted Yang Fan gently, and waited for Yang Fan to calm down, before asking Yang Fan about his experience over the years, Yang Fan immediately became excited, and slowly told Yang Dinglong all kinds of people, things, things, and all kinds of new things he had encountered after coming out of Bihu Villa, but he didn't say that he was almost killed by a horse thief when he was in Qingniu Town, but simply brought it over, Yang Dinglong didn't show any worries, because if Yang Fan died in the hands of a horse thief, he would really be disgraced and thrown home, and he would not be worthy of being a descendant of his Yang family.
Next, Yang Fan put all kinds of experiences in the depths of the flood wilderness, Xiao Feng and his father Wolf King, Yang Fan told Yang Dinglong not to disturb the Wolf King's Qing Xiu, Xiao Feng and he were good friends, and they came out to experience with him.
Yang Dinglong knew that this child must have met a senior master, but he didn't expect it to be a big demon in the depths of the wilderness, Yang Dinglong, who has always been calm and calm, was also taken aback at the moment, his heart was like a nuclear wave, and those who could be called kings were all legendary existences, and his son actually got the care of such an existence, and called him a brother and brother with the descendants of the king.
But then he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard Yang Fan's first contact with the wolf king, and then the wolf king instructed him how to become a strong man, and his heart breathed a sigh of relief, after Yang Fan told Yang Dinglong the wolf king's original words, he also felt that he had benefited a lot, and felt that he had taken a lot of detours before, and then heard that the wolf king took Yang Fan to that strange place, and then all kinds of encounters made Yang Dinglong raise his heart to his throat......
The two fathers and sons spent a day in this way, Yang Dinglong felt that the things that he had experienced in half his life that could surprise him did not add up to Yang Fan's words today, which made Yang Dinglong's heart slowly calm down after a long time, looking at Yang Fan with infinite emotion in his heart, and was about to say something, Yang Fan suddenly patted his head.
"Oh, father, I forgot about Nedan. After finishing speaking, he directly took the sack full of Neidan and put it in front of Yang Dinglong, opened it for Yang Dinglong to see, and said to Yang Dinglong happily: "Father, look, all of this is Neidan!"
"Father!"
"Father!"
He called for a long time, but found that Yang Dinglong had never responded to him, so he raised his head to look at Yang Fan.
However, Yang Dinglong's expression at the moment was already frozen there, and he couldn't tell whether he was numb or speechless.
