A life of clearness

Chapter 91 One less person

The Merit Office, the huge palace, the wheel-turning tree, the theater and dance hall with endless lights, the river, the stone bridge... countless scenes flashed before her eyes.

Her heart skipped a beat and Rong Qing opened her eyes.

"came back."

She looked down at her clean hands in a trance. She clenched her fists, then unclenched them. She felt the strength in her finger bones and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Only with a physical body can one feel at ease. It is said that when one reaches the state of spiritual transformation, the soul is another body of the cultivator, or even the root. But for me, this is not something I need to consider yet." Rong Qing murmured. "Although the sea of ​​consciousness has been slightly damaged, compared to the intelligence gained, it is worth it!"

Rong Qing had been worrying about how to increase Zhong Xiu's life span. With the precedent of Concubine Ji, she had great confidence.

"The first step is to become a god."

Rong Qing sat cross-legged on the cushion, absorbing spiritual energy frantically with the meridians in his body roaring.

"The second step is to kill Concubine Ji and obtain her first generation mask."

Countless refined pure spiritual powers gathered towards the golden elixir in Xugu, and the emerald green Yinglong swam around the golden elixir happily.

"The third step is that I will put on the white mask first, and then give the first generation mask to Zhong Xiu. From now on, even if she cannot practice, she can still transcend the shackles of mortal lifespan because of me!!"

The previously damaged sea of ​​consciousness began to slowly recover on its own thanks to the mysterious connection with the golden elixir.

When the window was tinged with morning light, adding the first ray of brightness to the darkened quiet room, Rong Qing stood up calmly.

With every step she took, her aura grew stronger.

Until she opened the door of the quiet room, her whole body was full of vigor and vitality, echoing the rising sun in the distance.

No words were needed, everyone who saw it knew that she was determined to win everything that was going to happen.

Fenghuang'er, who walked out from the door opposite Rong Qing, looked at the female cultivator whose profile was illuminated by the early sun and was secretly frightened by her eyes.

Tenacious and decisive.

"There is a bit of the aura of a life-threatening cultivator." Fenghuang'er sighed in her heart. She smiled and greeted Rong Qing.

Rong Qing replied, "Okay." At the same time, the vigorous aura slowly subsided. Although it subsided, it was still condensed and did not disperse. It only needed to wait for an opportunity to burst out in full force.

"It will be officially opened in a few moments. All cultivators, gather here." The voice of the inspector sounded in the ears of Rong Qing and others.

The figure of the inspector appeared on the stone tablet with the word "Cang Liu" engraved on it on the sky curtain.

Rong Qing and Chu Yuan, who opened the door and came out, exchanged glances, and flew towards the sky at the same time.

During the ascent, many monks who had obtained quotas gathered. Ten thousand monks gathered in front of the inspector in less than ten breaths.

Although there was no queue, the camps were still vaguely divided.

The foreign monks were led by Chu Yuan, Rong Qing, Feng Huang'er, and Da Si Mingmo. There was no discussion, because Rong Qing and Chu Yuan stood side by side, so hundreds of foreign monks stayed in the air behind them.

As for the local cultivators of Cangliuzhou, they were led by a male cultivator who was half a step into the God Transformation stage. He noticed Rong Qing's gaze, but he did not react excessively. He just pretended not to see it and looked at the inspector without blinking.

The inspector had already turned a blind eye to the 10,000 people standing in front of him, and there was nothing to say.

He raised his hand and knocked on the Cangliu stone tablet. The knock did not have much force, and was probably just like an ordinary knock on the door.

However, under the astonished gaze of ten thousand monks, the Cangliu stone tablet suddenly collapsed and turned into a black vortex as high as a person.

Ok?
When almost everyone's attention was attracted by the black vortex, Rong Qing looked down. This place was ten thousand feet above the ground. However, this height was not too high for a Yuanying or half-step Shenhua cultivator.

Such a change should have attracted many other monks, but it did not.

There seemed to be an invisible barrier below the ten thousand monks, blocking all curious investigations.

"Mustard Seed Domain! This is a realm that can only be opened up by Divine Transformation cultivators." Rong Qing understood immediately. "The inspector has released his own Mustard Seed Domain. Once we fly into the Mustard Seed Domain, we will disappear from the outside world. So no matter what happens in the sky, it will not be known by irrelevant people."

She had been to the Mustard Seed Domain of Sword Masters Chongyu and Chongji, and had a deep impression of the special feeling of being there. This made her guess that the cultivators were now in the Mustard Seed Domain.

However, the mustard seed domain of this inspector was not ordinary, and it did not evolve at all, and was invisible and formless. So Rong Qing did not notice it at first.

Rong Qing's expression remained unchanged, and she withdrew her spiritual sense from probing downwards. As for the inspector, there was even less unnecessary expression on his face.

He said to the monks, "You will all pass through the vortex one by one. Once you are there, you don't need to think too much. Just concentrate and calm your mind. From now on, it all depends on your luck."

The inspector's eyes slowly swept over the ten thousand monks. When they reached Chu Yuan, they froze.

"Michiko. You go first."

Rong Qing's eyelashes trembled, and she subconsciously felt that something was wrong. Although the other cultivators did not seem to have any objections, after all, Daozi Chuyuan's strength was recognized. However, Rong Qing felt that the inspector letting Chuyuan go first sounded ill-intentioned.

Chu Yuan remained cold and indifferent when he heard this, and did not comment on the inspector's words.

He lowered his eyes, and a slender white hand grasped his sleeve. Even so, it did not exert any force to stop him from going. It was as if the hand was out of the control of its owner.

Chu Yuan slightly curled his lips. Daozi, who always followed the ruthless path and did not allow his emotions to taint himself, rarely felt a little joy in his heart. Although this joy disappeared in an instant, he did not stop and flew forward. Under the gaze of the cultivators, he entered the vortex without any hesitation.

Rong Qing watched Chu Yuan's figure disappear into the whirlpool.

"He actually went straight in." Rong Qing thought to herself, "It seems there is no danger on the other side."

Chu Yuan was sent to participate in the opening of the sky, so he must know more than Rong Qing. Since he was also in, Rong Qing felt relieved.

"Next, whoever of you wants to go in, go in. Come one by one." The inspector said to the remaining people.

"I'll go first." Rong Qing took a step forward, just in front of the half-step divine transformation male cultivator who was leading Cang Liuzhou. The male cultivator stopped moving forward, looking a little uneasy, but he quickly suppressed it.

Rong Qing bowed to the inspector, then entered the vortex without hesitation.

There was a continuous buzzing sound in my ears. This was not only affecting my body, but even my sea of ​​consciousness began to vibrate. In front of me was pure darkness, as if I was in the depths of the ocean.

Take a breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

Rong Qing only felt that her body and soul were being squeezed, squeezed, and squeezed into a thin piece of paper.

Four breaths.

Five breaths.

Six breaths.

She took a sharp breath. A dazzling light burst out in front of her eyes, forcing Rong Qing to squint. The extreme discomfort that seemed to shift her soul gradually subsided.

As a monk, the first instinctive reaction is to check oneself.

"My body, soul, golden elixir, spiritual platform in the sea of ​​consciousness...there is nothing wrong with it." Rong Qing breathed a sigh of relief and now had time to observe her surroundings.

This was a pure white world, even at the end of the sight it was all white. At the same time there was no extraneous sound, it was extremely quiet. So quiet that it made people panic.

"It took six full breaths of time, but it still has this uncomfortable reaction. I wonder where it went."

Rong Qing looked back at the black vortex floating in the air, then walked forward.

Her spiritual awareness was of course much faster than her walking speed, and could spread a thousand feet in an instant. She had already cultivated to the half-step transformation of the spirit, and now she had built the first floor of the spiritual platform. It was normal that her spiritual awareness strength was far beyond that of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators or even half-step transformation of the spirit.

The spiritual consciousness that was exploring forward was soon blocked.

"There seems to be an invisible barrier thousands of feet ahead. The spirit cannot penetrate it." Rong Qing's eyes flashed, and she flew forward on tiptoe. "I wonder if the flesh can pass through it."

Rong Qing did not use her maximum speed. This place was unfamiliar. Although Kaitian had always been very safe, she could not let her guard down. She kept her spiritual awareness around her all the way to prevent any accidents.

Only when she approached the barrier encountered in her spiritual perception did she slow down until she came to a complete stop.

This barrier cannot be seen with the naked eye.

Rong Qing thought about it, and a fast-growing branch sprang out from the cuff of her sleeve. The branch only had tiny leaves and small thorns, but the branch itself grew to an extremely long height and stretched forward.

The spiritual plants grew so fast that in a short time, Yao Niang had covered the barrier that even solid objects could not penetrate. This invisible barrier turned into a flower wall, and Rong Qing could clearly see how huge the barrier was.

High, seemingly infinite.

Wide, and seemingly infinite.

In his mind, Yao Niang's soft voice came, "Master, Hua Nu has grown to its limit."

"That's enough, come back."

After receiving Rong Qing's order, the densely covered flower wall seemed to collapse suddenly. The branches shrank rapidly, and soon became thinner and shorter, turning into a slender and fragile flower that shrank back into Rong Qing's sleeve.

At this moment, the black vortex that was already very far away behind Rong Qing teleported out another person.

She is wearing green clothes and has a gentle temperament.

This person is Fenghuanger.

She reacted in the same way as Rong Qing, checking herself first and then her surroundings before flying towards Rong Qing.

After Fenghuang'er came out, as if everyone was rushing to join in, the black vortex continuously sent out monks one by one. It didn't stop for a moment, almost like a collective teleportation.

"What do you think?" Fenghuang stood next to Rongqing, "What do you think?" Of course she noticed the barrier in front of her. Rongqing arrived earlier than her, so it was impossible for her not to know.

"It's not certain yet." Rong Qing shook her head.

Just behind the two of them, cultivators teleported from Cangliu Continent continued to gather.

All the cultivators were at the Jindan, Yuanying, and half-step Huashen levels. When they reached this level, they naturally discovered something strange ahead.

There should have been some discussion. But seeing that the seniors who had reached the level of Half-Step Divine Transformation were standing by the barrier in silence, no sound was heard despite the large number of people. However, Rong Qing did not know whether there was any private discussion.

"There's someone on the other side!" A monk in the crowd suddenly exclaimed.

Rong Qing was closest to the barrier and had been staring at it, so he had already noticed it before he spoke.

"We should all be here now." Fenghuang looked around at the cultivators behind her and confirmed the number of people she had. "Except..."

Rong Qing shook her head and stopped Fenghuang'er from talking, "Wait until the other side arrives."

The people coming from the opposite side were obviously faster! In just four breaths, they were all there, and no new people were seen. They gathered in groups of three or two, and the situation of huddling together seemed to be even more serious.

Rong Qing had been counting since the first person appeared.

"It seems that we don't have to worry about Chu Yuan," Rong Qing snorted and folded his arms across his chest, "We have 10,000 people less than one person, while the other side has 9,999 people. So someone has calculated the current situation."

If it was a game, then except for Yuan, who escaped, everyone had already escaped from it.
