Chapter 135: Tongyuan Retreat (I)
Three days later, Ji Chengche returned to Tiandu Peak and went to Tongyuan Pagoda to begin a ten-day cultivation at the appointment.
The whole body is white and flawless, the Tongyuan Tower is quietly bathed in the early morning glow, the Haotian God Bell on the top of the tower is sending out a soft and distant roar, the bell rings through the mountains, the egret flies up and the squirrel jumps the branches, the colorful sea of clouds is turbulent, and the weather is thousands.
It was the time of the morning class, and the rows of Yuguan Taoist priests were in good order, bowing their heads and walking towards the Temple of Asking Heaven, and there was no one talking all the way, and the scene was solemn and solemn.
The Heavenly Dao Sect elder waiting in front of the tower was Hai Dongqing, and he volunteered to come to pick up Ji Chengche into the tower, obviously grateful to Ji Chengqing.
A few days have passed since the Jiao Festival, but the aftermath has not subsided, but has intensified.
With Tiandu City as the center, all parts of the country are denouncing the Tiandao Sect, and hundreds of people are flocking to the local Taoist temples to demand justice and clear their minds.
The situation of the Baishui Temple, where Du Ye Zhenren was located, was particularly bad, and he and all the disciples in the temple were handed over to the government by the Heavenly Dao Sect and put in prison. Waiting for justice to be brought to justice.
But these are far from enough to be angry with the civilians, the three hundred civilians who were released by Lin Yin from the Baishuiguan dungeon, all of them were innocently wronged, almost all of them could be regarded as escaping death, when the atrocities they experienced when they were imprisoned were exposed, the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect almost immediately became street rats that everyone shouted and beaten, and some even dared not wear Taoist robes on the street anymore.
The high-level of the Heavenly Taoist Sect learned from the pain, began to introspect and purge internally, and strictly ordered the Taoist temples in various places to fully cooperate with the government to investigate the case, and severely punished those who violated the law on the spot. It's just that it's hard to return, and it's not easy to scrape the bones to heal the wounds and be reborn.
"Your Highness Chengqing, Mingyue was able to come back safely this time, thanks to you. ”
As soon as he saw Ji Chengqing, Hai Dongqing thanked him repeatedly, and said hatefully: "It's a pity that Qing Tianzhao's beast who eats inside and outside takes advantage of the chaos to escape and disappears, otherwise the old man will break his legs with his own hands!"
Ji Chengche expected that Qing Tianzhao should have been sheltered by Yan Kui, he deliberately hid and did not dare to return to the Tiandu Sect, and wanting to dig him out at this time was tantamount to looking for a needle in the bottom of the sea, so he was not surprised by the news, and changed the topic and asked, "Is Tianhe Zhenren back?"
"Not yet. Hai Dongqing shook his head with embarrassment on his face and said, "I heard that Xie Wuqi has never come back." Ahem, I don't know where the two of them went. ”
Ji Chengche couldn't help but think wildly, with the cultivation of ghosts and innocent people and Tianhe Zhenren, unless they were raided and encircled by the powerhouses of the Holy Realm, there would be no one in the world who could hurt them in the slightest. The two of them may live in seclusion and never ask about the world again, if this is the case, they really want to congratulate the ghost on his innocence, and wish him an early birth to a noble son.
He and Hai Dongqing walked forward while chatting, and after a while, they came to the bottom of the Tongyuan Tower.
People are as small as ants under the tower, and they can feel the majesty of the Tongyuan Tower more and more. At first, the first few layers could be seen clearly, and after a few more than ten zhang up, it was completely submerged in the clouds, and it was not real, as if a crystal jade sword pierced the sky.
Hai Dongqing led Ji Chengche to the gate of the tower and said: "This tower has a total of thirteen floors, the closer to the ground floor, the more pure and rich the vitality, but above the tenth floor belongs to the forbidden land of this sect, and there are elders in the sect guarding it. After His Royal Highness Cheng enters the tower, he can choose a suitable floor to retreat according to his own cultivation realm and cultivation situation. ”
He specially reminded again: "His Highness Cheng Che should have heard that the bottom of the Tongyuan Tower is connected with the Metaverse Fetal Qi. However, the abyss under the tower is dangerous, and the laws of space-time distortion are shattered and in chaos, so you must not go deep into it because of a moment of curiosity, otherwise you will definitely die if you lose your way or be swept away by the storm in the abyss. ”
Ji Chengqing could hear that Hai Dongqing was genuinely concerned about his safety in the tower, so he nagged so much.
He was grateful and smiled, "Thank you for the advice, I will be more careful." ”
He stepped into the Tongyuan Tower, and the light suddenly dimmed with a sound of "dang" behind him, and the tower door had been closed.
Suddenly, a stream of warm and mellow vitality came to the surface, thick like an old wine that had been placed in a jar for decades, and people were already drunk after taking a sip.
Ji Chengche once traveled all over the Metaverse Continent with Mr. Big, and even went to the legendary Sea Immortal Island. However, the vitality contained in the countless caves in the north and south of the heavens, both in purity and concentration, was far inferior to this Tongyuan Tower.
No wonder this place is known as the first tower in the world, and the Metaverse fetal gas that has surged up from the ground alone is well deserved.
Unlike practicing anywhere else, there is almost no need to concentrate on meditation and exercise, and the wisps of vitality will automatically penetrate into Ji Cheng's body through the pores, and then bubbling like a stream of thousands of streams and finally merging into the small Qiankun, which feels refreshing and refreshing like drinking mellow syrup immortal wine.
A few days ago, his strength in a series of fierce battles was greatly depleted, and although he gradually recovered after a few days of recuperation, he was still far from being full.
At this time, the fetal qi of the Metaverse entered the body like a clear spring flowing on the stone, and the murmuring made the spirit refreshed.
Ji Chengqing was overjoyed in his heart, and looked at the situation in the Tongyuan Tower. I saw that the four walls of the tower were black and shiny, and the material seen outside the tower was completely different, which seemed to be the fine iron of Yaochi from Xiliang, and the runes could be vaguely seen flickering on it.
The milky white vitality poured out from the abyss at the bottom of the tower, accumulating in the tower, and most of it would be smelted and transmitted through the immortal circle in the Tongyuan Tower, and supplied to the various caves of the Heavenly Dao Palace or stored to support the operation of the entire Tiandu Peak Defense Array.
The remaining small part will accumulate in the tower day by day, and the disciples who enter the tower will practice and refine.
The exit of the abyss was irregular spindle-shaped, and at first glance it looked like the eyes of the giant spirit god. The abyss is surrounded by high platforms, and a magic circle is set up to prevent anyone from entering it.
The tower is hollow, there is a long ladder along the tower wall and goes up, each floor has a corridor to communicate, the stone rooms of different sizes are like a beehive densely packed with stars, enough to accommodate hundreds of Heavenly Taoist disciples to enter the tower at the same time to cultivate.
At this time, Ji Chengqing was keenly aware of the uncomfortable reaction in his body.
It turned out that the Metaverse fetal qi at the bottom of the tower was too high and surging extremely violently, and it was difficult to quickly refine and absorb it after being absorbed into the body, and it gradually accumulated in the meridians. If it takes a little longer, it may block the meridians, and even die of spermatozoa.
Therefore, it is not that the more vitality and the stronger the better, but it also depends on the realm of the cultivator who enters the pagoda. If you don't know how to take the initiative to exit the Tongyuan Tower after absorbing the full Ying, it will explode like a water bag filled with water.
Ji Chengche figured out the strangeness here, so he didn't stay at the bottom of the tower, and walked up the long ladder.
He didn't walk too fast, concentrating on feeling the slight changes in the vitality around him, in order to find a floor suitable for his cultivation.
Although it is likely that the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Mirror is buried in the abyss below, Ji Chengche does not plan to immediately enter the abyss to search for treasure.
On the one hand, he needs time to gradually adapt to the environment here, and more importantly, he has to adjust his body's energy to the best condition.
When Ji Chengche reached the third floor, he stopped and went into the cloister to find the stone room for retreat.
On the third floor of the Tongyuan Tower, usually only a few Tianzi Elders who have entered the Great Sun Illumination Realm can stay and cultivate for a long time. That Ji Chengche is only sixteen years old, and his realm can be as far as a drop in the ocean, so he actually chose to cultivate here, which is really bold.
Fortunately, Ji Chengqing had the heart of the Ten Thousand Years Frost Holy Dragon in his body, which was enough to withstand such a vitality intensity, so this was a rare opportunity to polish and refine.
He walked over and saw that there were four stone chambers on the third floor, and the doors of each stone chamber were open to the outside, obviously no one was cultivating on this floor at the moment.
However, the scenery of these four stone chambers is different, not only in different sizes and shapes, but also in the layout of the interior.
Ji Chengqing walked around the corridor, and finally chose the first stone room near the right side of the long ladder.
This stone room is shaped like a treasure vase, and the entrance is extremely narrow, but the interior is extremely spacious, and there is also a large Dao Gate array designed for cultivators to protect the Dharma.
Ji Chengche walked into the stone room, and the prohibition at the door gave birth to an induction, and a stone door automatically fell slowly from above, isolating the inside and outside. When he landed, the vitality outside no longer surged inward, and the indoor "chirp" sounded one by one, and the nodes of the magic circle lit up like stars and began to run slowly.
Ji Chengche noticed that the magic circle here was arranged according to the indoor terrain, divided into three sub-arrays, front and back and middle, which implied the meaning of the three talents of heaven, earth and man, the vitality of the ground array in the middle was relatively thin, and the vitality of the heavenly array outside was the strongest.
Ji Chengche is well versed in the principle of step-by-step, and honestly chooses to start his meditation from the ground formation.
He sat down cross-legged on the silk futon located above the eyes of the earth array, and immediately felt a wonderful ray of spirituality coming from the futon, and the tranquility of his mind and the enhancement of his divine consciousness were like a pool of cool spring water encompassing his Dao heart.
It seems that what sits under this buttocks should not be a futon made of ordinary silk, but is made of silk thread spit out by the "thousand-year-old sleeping silkworm" in southern Xinjiang, which can be called a treasure of the world, which is very beneficial to cultivation and can protect the cultivator from the invasion of demons to the greatest extent.
Ji Chengqing slowly closed his eyes to meditate, silently feeling the wisps of Metaverse fetal qi infiltrating his body, flowing in the meridians, like smoke and mist, unusually soft and ethereal.
His meridian bones stretched out in unison and cheered with joy, greedily absorbing the precious vitality, and then gradually merged into the small Qiankun.
In a moment, Ji Chengche entered a strange state, like an infant falling asleep quietly in the warm embrace of his mother, carefree and unconsciously forgetting everything outside his body.
The vitality in the stone room was silent, and the time passed quietly like flowing water...... (83 Chinese Net.)
