Chapter 257: Seeking Merit

The dog days have passed, and the autumn breeze is gradually cooling.

Ren Qinglian's deity has always stayed in the dantian world to improve his realm perception, and Yang Chan seems to have been infected by him, and he has rarely cultivated quietly.

There is no sun and moon in practice, and the cold and summer do not know the year.

The days passed in a flash, and on this day, several people traveling west felt a surprisingly stuffy feeling.

Xuanzang's body was mortal, and the beads of sweat on his forehead kept rolling down, and the whole person was a little groggy.

However, Ren Qinglian and the others have not weak cultivation, although they feel this unusual stuffiness, they are still walking with a hundred times more energy, but no one notices the strangeness on Xuanzang's body.

This monk was also a strong-willed person, and he insisted on holding on, and soon he felt that his eyes were black, and he did not grasp the reins of the horse, and fell headlong.

"Master!" Sha Wujing exclaimed, throwing his burden on the ground and running over.

When everyone heard the sound, they gathered around and saw that the corners of the monk's mouth were dry, and there were already several deep blood marks on the chapped lips.

"Water, water...... Second Senior Brother, quickly fetch water and give Master a sip!" Sha Wujing beckoned to Zhu Gangguan.

Zhu Gangguan ran to rummage in the luggage, and smiled bitterly: "The water is steamed, and the place is steaming, is it the place where the sunset is reached?" ”

The so-called place of sunset is the Tang Valley of the ancient flood era, where the famous fire spirit root Fusang wood is located, which was once the habitat of the Jinwu clan. However, the vicissitudes of the sea, the Fusang wood has been destroyed, and the Jinwu clan has also been killed and injured, this soup valley has become a famous furnace, because it is located at the end of Xihe Niuzhou, and is called the end of heaven by the mortals on the mainland, and there is a Buddha country nearby, called Sihari country.

When the monkey saw Xuanzang waking up, he knew that the old monk was just dizzy from the heat, and he was not worried, so he scolded with a smile: "The nerd should not talk nonsense, like the master, even if he is old, he may not be able to go to the place of sunset." ”

Ren Qinglian has been familiar with many ancient secrets through the memory of the six-eared macaque, and when she heard the words of the two monkeys, she couldn't help but move in her heart, and secretly thought: "I don't know if there are any stumps and leaves left by Fusang wood in that place, if there is, you can try to cultivate it in the dantian world and see if you can feed it." Moreover, that place is inextricably linked to the Golden Crow clan...... It seems that when the Buddha-figure cultivation is over, he should be allowed to go over. ”

Thinking about it, he saw the sick Xuanzang again, his heart was moved, and he couldn't help but use his water control magic power to condense a small spring in the scorching air and fall into the other party's mouth.

The monk ate the water, his spirit finally improved a lot, nodded to Ren Qinglian gratefully, and said with some doubts: "The weather has already become a little colder, I don't know how to get here and start to get hot again, the poor monk originally thought that he would endure it, but he didn't expect it to get hotter and hotter......"

The monkey was also puzzled, but when he opened the road in front of him just now, he had already noticed that there was a family not far away, so he said: "There is a village courtyard on the side of the road in front, and my grandson will go over and ask to see what the heat is." ”

"There are Lao Xian apprentices!" Xuanzang said gratefully.

Ren Qinglian had already guessed that this was to the realm of the Flame Mountain, but he didn't remind him, but secretly passed the news to the deity.

When the monkey went to investigate, Ren Qinglian's deity finally woke up from his cultivation state.

"Did you get to the Flaming Mountain so soon?"

Martial artists do not cultivate the Yuan Shen, and it is naturally much more difficult than the Taoist to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, but with the help of the double cultivation of Dafa, his divine thoughts and Yang Chan's divine thoughts are blended with each other, but he can use the other party's Yuan Shen to feel the kind of Yuan Shen perspective that only Xuanmen masters can have, and indulge in this unique feeling, he doesn't feel that the time in the outside world has actually passed for more than half a year.

"Are you leaving again?" Yang Chan also came to her senses, "I've been cultivating for so long, you can take me out this time." ”

Ren Qinglian nodded, "Well, you follow me first, there is a great creation with you." ”

Yang Chan didn't care about any great creations, and she was a little overjoyed to hear that she could follow him.

Ren Qinglian rubbed her head a little affectionately, but before leaving, he brought the Polna family out as well.

Maybe Xiao Bai originally had some kind of exotic blood, or maybe Ren Qinglian's dantian world was more abundant than the outside world's aura, plus Pol Prison Guards secretly fed him the treasured fruits in Ren Qinglian's orchard to him, anyway, when he appeared in the Earth Immortal Realm again, Xiao Bai already had the strength no less than Pol, and his body size became much larger.

This snow-white falcon is naturally very pleasing to Yang Chan, and he ignored Pol's protests and regarded Xiaobai as his mount.

The group did not meet Xuanzang and the others, and directly appeared at the core of the Flaming Mountain, a raging underground cave.

"What kind of place is this!" The scorching breath made Yang Chan couldn't help frowning a little, and cyan brilliance appeared on her body, separating these fires.

Pol's eyes lit up, "I know this place, I know, it's the Flaming Mountain!"

Ren Qinglian nodded, "Xiaobai, if you feel uncomfortable, go back to the dantian world first." ”

Although the strength of the white falcon has increased greatly, the flame in this core area is a real samadhi fire.

Fortunately, Yang Chan used her mana to protect Xiaobai as soon as possible, and it was okay for the time being.

Pol smiled: "Master, don't you know, Xiaobai has the blood of the Kunlun Snow Falcon, although he can't absorb the power of flames, but he won't be afraid of these flames!"

"Oh?" Ren Qinglian was slightly surprised, she didn't expect this white falcon to be a descendant of the Kunlun Snow Falcon, this is a kind of alien bird that is known for its power of nine cold ice, with its current strength at the peak of the Heavenly Immortals, as long as it does not go deep into these samadhi true fires under the Flame Mountain, it will be safe and sound.

"In that case, you can stay outside and cultivate well," Ren Qinglian said, taking Yang Chan into those samadhi true fires in the depths of the cave.

As it deepened, the true flame of samadhi began to become more and more refined.

Slowly, Yang Chan was already having some difficulty breathing, and the mana shield on her body began to fluctuate.

Ren Qinglian tightened her hand, motioning her to relax, and then, she crossed a true qi into the other party's body.

With the experience of double cultivation, Yang Chan can already adapt well to the martial arts true qi walking in her meridians. At the same time, a warm sensation began to come from all four limbs, and the whole person became warm.

"Disperse the mana, don't worry. Ren Qinglian said, grabbing her hand without the slightest intention of letting go.

Yang Chan glanced at him secretly, trying to disperse the mana shield, but the imaginary scorching feeling did not appear, it was still that warm feeling.

"I didn't lie to you, did I?" Ren Qinglian couldn't help but smile when she saw her cautious look.

As they spoke, the two of them had come to the very center of the flames.

Several huge golden ashlars landed nearby, and on them burned incomparably pure samadhi fires.

"It turns out that this flame has lasted for a long time because of the formation patterns on these stones!" Ren Qinglian quickly noticed the abnormality in it, and couldn't help but say.

"These stones seem to be used by Tushi Palace to build the Dan furnace, right?" Yang Chan slowly adapted to the firelight, saw those stones clearly, and couldn't help but say.

Ren Qinglian nodded, then told her the origin of this Flame Mountain, and then said, "This is the great creation I said. ”

"Samadhi True Fire?" Yang Chan thought thoughtfully, this is the secret of the Tushi Palace, if it can be mastered, it can naturally be regarded as a creation.

Ren Qinglian shook her head, "Merit!"

Although the Samadhi True Fire is good, but Yang Chan has the Baolian lamp in her hand, which can only be regarded as the icing on the cake, and the great creation he said is actually the power of merit in the difficult Flame Mountain.

He has long known that merit is helpful for cultivation, but he has never known much about what kind of help the Fa is, which is also the fundamental reason why he did not deliberately compete for any merit along the way.

However, with the memory of the six-eared macaque, and the gradual understanding of the cultivation methods of Taoists with Yang Chan during this time, he really realized why those Buddhist and Taoist masters broke their scalps and wanted to seek some merit on this journey to the west.

Yang Chan's eyes lit up, the power of merit can enhance the effect of the Yuan Shen to perceive the mysteries of heaven and earth, enough merit, and even make people directly have an epiphany to break through the shackles of the great realm, when she was in Pingdingshan, she got some merit power because she helped Xuanzang get out of danger from Wandong Mountain, although it was insignificant, but she also felt the benefits during this time, and now she heard Ren Qinglian's words, she was naturally a little surprised.

Ren Qinglian pulled her to sit cross-legged on one of the hearthstones, and with the help of the double cultivation secret method, she guided the true qi in Yang Chan's body to absorb the samadhi true fire around her in the way of swallowing the heavens.

If you want to do this, in addition to the harsh requirements for the strength of the warrior itself, the most important thing is that the other party must trust the caster 100%, after all, this is tantamount to completely removing one's own armament and allowing others to slaughter.

However, for the two of them, there is no need to worry about this, after all, the cultivation of the dual cultivation secret method can already make them understand each other and trust each other.

Yang Chan doesn't practice martial arts, Ren Qinglian just temporarily simulated the cultivation of martial artists in her body, in the final analysis, these refined samadhi true fires still have to return to his own dantian, but in another sense, it is equivalent to Yang Chan refining the heavenly fire that has been raging in this flame mountain for hundreds of years, not only to benefit the people within a radius of thousands of miles, but also to help people who learn scriptures to get out of the robbery, and when the time comes, there will naturally be merit to fall.

However, if you want to absorb all the samadhi true fire in this cave, it is not a matter of overnight, although Ren Qinglian has grabbed some merits, but it does not affect the monkey and others to experience their own tempering and seek some merits, large and small.
