Chapter 116: The Wonderful Use of Merit!

The end of the Son of Heaven's prayer is approaching, and Zhang Zixing's cultivation has also reached the most critical juncture.

The rotation and ups and downs of the nebula are still violent, but the light of each star has become crystal clear, and the smoke-like core of it can be faintly seen, and the strange pale yellow light gradually disappears into the blue star in the center of the nebula, the blue star shakes out slightly, the crystal solid shell suddenly shatters, and the faint smoke inside gradually spreads, and the fragmentation of the center suddenly affects the fission of the entire nebula, and for a while, the beautiful and gorgeous nebula is all shattered, leaving only a misty smoke, mixed in the rotation.

The shape of the smoke changed from time to time, and finally split into two halves, half dragon-shaped, half turtle-shaped, and as the forms of the two beasts gradually became clearer, the rotation of the smoke gradually returned to normal.

The shape of the dragon and the tortoise were finally completely solidified, and the exterior of both was wrapped in this faint blue light, the dragon was full of golden scales, with a mighty appearance, with five claws on its palms, and its eyes were shining, and the turtle's neck and tail were like snakes, and its back armor was pitch black, and there were nine patterns on it that shimmered and fluorescent.

The dragon and the turtle looked at each other, and they all roared in unison, and suddenly, the whole body of the two beasts shook violently, as if they had been hit hard, and the huge image shattered at the same time, scattering into the heavens and stars, and at the same time, Zhang Zixing's eyes that had been closed finally opened.

His expression was joyful, surprised, and regretful.

At that time, the external force had been saturated to the peak, so Zhang Zixing thought of the principle of compression software, and immediately used these forces that were about to overflow to compress the nebula, hoping to increase the capacity of energy, and at the same time constantly remove the chaff in the rotation of the stars, and strive to produce qualitative changes. But before the round of compression and refining was over, the power of external faith began to overflow again, and in desperation, he had to be forced to compress repeatedly, and finally reached the critical point again, that is, the moment of life and death. Just when the nebula was about to explode, the magical pale yellow light suddenly appeared in the spiritual consciousness, and in an instant, he was blessed to the soul, and the mood that seemed to be anxious and nervous just now suddenly calmed down, and let the outside burst and fluctuate, but the state of mind was unprecedentedly peaceful, like a fallen leaf, carrying and floating in the stormy waves, but because he did not exert any strength, so he was safe and sound.

Under the support of the pale yellow light, Zhang Zixing constantly perceived the changes and laws of the stars, and the laws of mastery of strength, and his own cultivation unconsciously advanced by leaps and bounds, and the hundreds of millions of stars in the nebula also changed with the enlightenment of his state of mind, and finally broke and stood up, truly reaching a qualitative leap.

Now in his spiritual sense, the vast nebula has become the appearance of a Taiji diagram, the center is still the blue star, the light of the blue star extends into a curve, all the stars on this curve are blue, the curve divides the nebula into two halves, half of the stars emit a faint golden light, the other half is dark, each half has a central galaxy, representing the golden dragon and the Xuanwu respectively, according to the strange laws of rotation and revolution, constantly swimming, like two living yin and yang fish. Maybe the form is not much different from before, but in essence there is a difference between the abyss, just from the pure and incomparably powerful energy emitted by the nebula at this time, you can see the qualitative change, if he was still wandering in the realm of cultivation before, at this time he has already stepped into the door of cultivating immortals.

Yes, it is the realm of immortals. This sounds a little incredible, because not long ago, he had just passed the Heavenly Tribulation and reached the Refining Void Period, if he wanted to break through to the realm of immortals, he would at least have to accumulate strength for a long time, cooperate with the corresponding state of mind, and pass the most powerful immortal tribulation again to have this kind of power, but I don't know why, he somehow reached such a realm.

Of course, he also has a regret: Kong Xuan once said that if he can unite water and fire, he can reach a deeper realm and directly achieve the immortal body, just when he tried to fuse the Yellow Emperor's Heart Sutra with the True Martial Spirit Technique, for some reason, his mind flickered, and he woke up from the subtle realm outside. Later, no matter how he tried, he couldn't return to that realm, Zhang Zixing's cultivation was a great progress, and now it is not what it used to be, so he naturally knows that this kind of immortal fate is hard to find, so he is no longer reluctant.

Today's immortal body is completely different from before, not only has there been a qualitative breakthrough in ** and spiritual ability, but also has an inexplicable understanding of all things in heaven and earth that was not there before, and the most important thing is that the realm of advanced immortal consciousness has changed from the previous rivers and seas to the universe, and has truly reached an endless realm, no matter how strong or intense the power of faith is, there will no longer be the threat of the previous explosion - I'm not afraid that you won't come, I'm afraid that you won't be enough.

Zhang Zixing carried the power of the Yellow Emperor's Heart Sutra, and found that the original yellow light had turned into golden light, and the golden dragon in the immortal consciousness seemed to be about to break out of the body;

Zhang Zixing was blessed by the "misfortune", and he was in a very good mood, and he couldn't help but let out a long howl.

When the female girl heard the news, she hurriedly came, and her first sentence was: "Brother Huang, you are really safe and sound!"

Zhang Zixing said curiously: "Why did Qing Lan ask this question? Could it be that something happened?"

The female lu was even more surprised: "Just now, the sky above this place was covered with clouds, and the immortal tribulation fell, could it be that the imperial brother himself didn't know?"

Zhang Zixing was greatly surprised, he was just immersed in the perception of that nebula, and he didn't know anything about it, could it be that there were other monks here who crossed the tribulation?

He hurriedly asked the female lu about the situation of the tribulation just now, and the female lu told him that suddenly a large cloud of calamity suddenly appeared, gathered in the sky above his fixed position, and soon a powerful thunderstorm fell, and the female lu knew that he was at a critical moment, and hurriedly stepped forward to resist for him. This Tribulation Cloud is the Cloud of Immortal Tribulation, and it is powerful, and those Cultivating Truth Tribulation Clouds in the past cannot be compared at all. Cultivating to cultivating immortals is equivalent to an evolutionary level of improvement, and if you can successfully cross the tribulation and refine the immortal body, you can become a real immortal. From ancient times to the present, there have been countless cultivators who have fallen on this hurdle, although there is only a line away from the immortal road, but they just can't break through, and the fate of the losers is very tragic, most of them are all wiped out and turned into nothing.

Although the female demon has the cultivation of the golden immortal, but because she did not take advantage of the magic weapon, she had to rely on the strong body to make a hard connection, who knew that the power of this thunder tribulation was far more powerful than she expected, it may be a punishment for him to take a "shortcut", the power of the immortal tribulation is dozens of times more powerful than that faced by ordinary cultivators, and the female lu took a few hard hits, and was far away. At this critical moment, a pale yellow light suddenly flew out from the top of Zhang Zixing's head, facing the clouds in the air, and at this time, an incredible scene happened, and the clouds that were walking in the sky containing extremely terrifying power were actually absorbed by this yellow light! The yellow light that absorbed the clouds returned to his body as if nothing happened. The surprise of the female lu is not trivial, she was born in the heavenly court, and fought with the Yellow Emperor, she can be said to be well-informed, but she has never seen anyone survive the immortal tribulation so easily, seeing that Zhang Zixing is still in cultivation, after the female lu confirmed that he was not in danger, she did not dare to disturb, and continued to guard the neighborhood.

Only then did Zhang Zixing know that he had really passed the life and death threshold of a cultivator in such a daze, and suddenly realized in his heart: just now in the immortal consciousness, it was also this pale yellow light that saved his life at a critical moment, judging from the feeling and appearance of this power, could it be ...... It was said that the mysterious young man helped him open another "channel" - the power of merit!

Zhang Zixing was surprised and delighted, no wonder the mysterious young man said that he would know about the benefits of the power of merit in the future, and it turned out that there was such a magical function! Thinking of the three Holy Emperors who relied on merit to achieve Dao Fruits in the Huoyun Cave, Zhang Zixing's heart couldn't help but move, as if he saw another kind of hope.

However, this power of merit is different from the power of faith, what is merit, and what is the standard of merit? I'm afraid only God knows. However, Zhang Zixing can guess a little, the only thing he can do now is to use his identity as the Son of Heaven to benefit the people, which is not only to promote the development of the times or consolidate the need to consolidate the regime, but more importantly, to accumulate merit for himself. It is in response to the saying: I am for everyone, and everyone is for me.

Zhang Zixing calculated the time, and it happened that the blessing was about to end, so he hurried back to the palace, fortunately, he has now become an immortal, and his flying skills are extremely fast, and he will soon return to the palace of Chaoge.

He sneaked into the Star Picking Tower, removed the invisible Violet obstacle, thought that he was alone anyway, and he didn't bother to change his clothes and do any prayers, so he came to the upstairs dormitory and slept beautifully.

The next day, the prayer finally ended, and it is said that the Son of Heaven was "exhausted" and even had difficulty walking. When the people heard this, they all felt nostalgic, and they knew that this benevolent son was venting his excess energy on the queen's body at this time.

On the other hand, Ying Long's preparations are also coming to an end. Only a few days after the prayer had passed, the people everywhere were pleasantly surprised to see that the sky was full of dark clouds, and at the same time it began to rain heavily, and the people thundered with joy and took to the streets with water vessels. But they soon found that this was redundant, because this rain was completely different from the previous petty fights, one day and one night, and then rain would fall every other time, and the originally dry rivers and ponds were gradually filled, and some water conservancy projects built later had basically solved the drought in the whole world.

Naturally, the people attributed all this credit to the Son of Heaven (and the truth was also true), and the prestige of the Son of Heaven reached a new high again. Although the prayer has long passed, the blessing charm has not been discarded, but has been sincerely worn by the people, called the "thanksgiving charm", indicating that they will never forget the great grace of the Son of Heaven.

The appearance of the Thanksgiving Charm is definitely an unexpected gain, which is equivalent to providing a long-term and stable source for Zhang Zixing's faith power in the future, and it will never be as high and low as before, with great ups and downs. If it was Zhang Zixing before he achieved the immortal body, he would definitely not be able to absorb these powerful power of faith, and it would be counterproductive, but now that he has a true immortal cultivation, these powers are just a great tonic for him, and he will not refuse to come.

Daji has not forgotten her promise to the pipa spirit, and in a fortunate situation, she "unintentionally" revealed that she had a sister who grew up together, who was born beautiful and charming, and was going to visit her in a few days.

Zhang Zixing's eyes lit up, and she appropriately expressed her interest in her sister, but she secretly said in her heart: It's finally coming...... Daji and Zhang Zixing made an appointment: three days later, when the sister came to Shouxian Palace to see her, Zhang Zixing could secretly peep on the side, if this woman was really beautiful, she would show up, and if she was mediocre, she could leave quietly. This is somewhat similar to the trick in the original book that seduces the king of the Xu, but it is replaced by a pipa spirit.

Zhang Zixing deliberately hesitated for a moment, agreed, and Daji was overjoyed: As long as you are willing to come, I am not afraid that you will not take the bait.

That night, she burned incense, summoned the jade pipa spirit, and explained the matter to her, the pipa essence believed that the cultivation of the heavenly demon secret art was still above the mortal body of Daji, and when she heard that the Son of Heaven would peep at her at that time, she immediately showed a strong self-confidence - from Daji's mouth, she learned that the Son of Heaven loved men and women, even if he did not have the advantage of Su Daji's appearance, with a charming skill, he could still be fascinated.

Just when the two thought they had a plan, they didn't know that they had fallen into someone else's calculation early on.

Three days later, the carefully prepared pipa spirit really came to Chaoge City, entered the palace to see the "righteous sister" Su Niangniang, the attendants had already been ordered by Daji, did not dare to stop it, and led the pipa spirit to Shouxian Palace.

Today's pipa essence is indeed very beautiful, the skin is better than snow, the eyes are wonderful, and the unique temperament is even more dusty, even the palace maids of Shouxian Palace can't help but lose their minds when they see her. Her complexion has a unique crystal white color, which is better than the white clothes on her body, which makes people reverie. When the pipa spirit saw Daji, she made a long-lost reunion and staged a deep sisterhood.

Just when the two were pretending to talk affectionately and waiting for the Son of Heaven, a waiter suddenly came to report: The war in the East China Sea is urgent, and the Son of Heaven is in a hurry to bring Wen Zhong and other important ministers to discuss military affairs in the Zhaoxuan Palace, and now they have no time to come to Shouxian Palace again.

Daji and Pipa Jing suddenly showed disappointed expressions, but a sentence from the inner attendant brought hope to the two of them: out of the rules of the inner palace, Daji's righteous sister could not spend the night in the palace, so the Son of Heaven specially arranged an elegant and secluded place in the Chaoge City for the "righteous sister" to live temporarily, and gave servants and maids to serve. After the important business is over, I will meet in person.

Elegant and secluded dwelling? Personally received the Pipa Spirit's eyes couldn't help but light up: Could it be that the Son of Heaven wanted to have a private meeting in that residence? If so, it would be good, and it would be better to use his means at that time, and not be afraid of not being able to charm him.

Daji and Pipa Jing looked at each other and smiled, and said: "Your Majesty actually did not forget to personally arrange a residence for your sister when the military situation was urgent, it seems that you really attach importance to your sister, and if your sister is rich and noble in the future, she will not forget me, the person who digs the well." ”

Pipa Jing glanced at the palace maids around her, and made a shy attitude: "Sister Hugh wants to laugh, my sister is just a vulgar fan, how can Your Majesty look at it, this time it's just Your Majesty's face in front of your sister."

The two women talked for a while, and the pipa spirit got up to say goodbye, followed the chamberlain out of the palace, got into the carriage, and galloped towards the "elegant" place.

As the chamberlain described, this building is located on a far street, and the surrounding houses are sparse, the location is indeed relatively secluded, and the layout is also very decent, gorgeous and elegant, and there are a group of servants to serve them. It's just that there is a simple house at the corner of the street diagonally opposite, and a plaque of "Jiang's Life Hall" hangs on it.
