Ascension Through Generations

Winter comes and summer comes, and in the blink of an eye it is three years later.

In early March, the sun is warm and the moss in the courtyard is first green, the peach blossom trees are full of trees, the fallen flowers are in colorful colors, and the surrounding area is filled with a refreshing fragrance.

"Whether it is the outer sword or the inner sword, they all go hand in hand with the Heart Sword. Sword Qi, the illusion of the sword's intention, forms its own sword domain. It is virtual and real, only the essence is subtle... The heart is true to the sword, and the sword's heart is formed!"

Taoist Que Yue looked at Zhao Sheng, who was sitting upright, and said slowly: "Three Treasures, although you are extremely talented and know everything after hearing one thing, your mind is too distracted. There are many methods such as talismans, elixirs, formations, weapons, and swordsmanship. Which one?" If you are not profound and profound, even a talented person who studies all his life will hardly be able to master one subject. But you are greedy and want them all. Be careful and you will end up not mastering all the methods and mastering one subject!"

"Master's teachings, disciple, please remember them." Zhao Sheng looked serious, lowered his head slightly, and raised his hand with one hand.

Que Yue's face brightened slightly when he saw this.

Que Yue didn't take these five disciples seriously at first, but as the disciples revealed their extraordinary talents again and again, he gradually developed a love for talents, and not only regarded them as As a research object, he is treated as a true direct disciple.

"Master, my disciple has recently realized that his energy, energy and spirit have reached the state of perfect integration. He knows that the opportunity for promotion is coming, and he will soon find a place to retreat to survive the tribulation. Today, I would like to bid farewell to Master."

oh?

Hearing this, Que Yue stroked his long beard and asked: "It's dangerous to form the elixir, and it's difficult to survive the thunder catastrophe! Are you ready with the formation to avoid the catastrophe, the golden elixir, and the magic weapon to overcome the tribulation? In fact, our sect has a special place to overcome the tribulation. You don't need to Go out on your own to overcome the tribulation."

Zhao Sheng smiled faintly and declined: "Thank you Master for your kindness. My disciple has been carefully planning for the pill formation for decades and has his own plan."

A ray of divine light flashed in Taoist Que Yue's eyes. He turned over his hand, and suddenly there was a "bead" as big as his head, with a dark light flowing in his palm.

This bead exudes majestic and terrifying pressure, and it is constantly expanding and contracting like a heart.

When Zhao Sheng saw this, his pupils shrank slightly, showing a hint of shock.

This bead is the soul core of the Nascent Soul Realm Ghost King. Even though the ghost king's soul has been taken away, this treasure is still priceless.

more importantly……

"You can take this soul core and refine it. Your promotion is guaranteed." Taoist Que Yue threw the soul core into Zhao Sheng's arms and said calmly.

"Thank you Master for giving me this treasure!"

Zhao Sheng hesitated for a moment, then accepted the soul core, then stood up and solemnly saluted Taoist Que Yue.

His major in kung fu is the "Red Lotus Fire Sutra", one of the five treasures of Tiandao.

This magical skill has one of the most significant characteristics, and it is also the most important factor for it to be included in the Five Treasures Sutra, which is the burning of "sin" by karma.

There is a saying that "if you have sinned against Heaven, you have nothing to pray for."

Ghosts, zombies and other evil spirits are contrary to the way of heaven and cannot be tolerated by heaven, so they can be said to be "offended by heaven".

Karmic fire burns ghosts and zombies, which is a meritorious service to heaven, and heaven will naturally send down merits.

According to the experience of the ancestors of Tiandao Sect, if you can burn and kill an evil spirit that is one level higher than your own when breaking through the realm, the intensity of the thunder disaster will be greatly reduced, so the success rate of breaking through the realm will greatly increase.

Taoist Que Yue was actually willing to take out a Nascent Soul Soul Core and give it to Zhao Sheng, which shows how much he values ​​his apprentice.

Taoist Que Yue received a courtesy from his disciple, and then motioned for Zhao Sheng to sit down and talk.

When Zhao Sheng sat back on the stone bench, Taoist Que Yue said, "Please stretch out your hand."

Zhao Sheng felt relieved, skillfully rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his right arm.

Taoist Que Yue carefully tied a green branch to his right hand. The surface of the green branch was shadowy, and light and shadow spilled out at the slightest movement.

Zhao Sheng recognized at a glance that this withered vine was a kind of spiritual vine unique to Cangzhou, called Spirit Shadow Branch. This thing has both virtual and real attributes, and it is considered a strange plant.

"Disciple, bring me a pot of Qianling wine for my master."

"Master, wait a moment, I'll be back as soon as I go."

After Zhao Sheng said this with a calm expression, he immediately disappeared into thin air.

Taoist Que Yue stroked his long beard, with a hint of expectation on his face.

After three breaths, Zhao Sheng returned, with a white porcelain wine cup in his hand.

Taoist Que Yue reached out and made a move, and the spiritual shadow branch broke away from Zhao Sheng's wrist and flew into his hand. Then the storm of spiritual thoughts swept out and rushed into the green branch to investigate carefully.

Opposite the stone table, Zhao Sheng lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, guarding his mind and remaining silent.

After a moment, Taoist Que Yue had no expression on his face, his palms were filled with spiritual light, and the spiritual shadow branch instantly turned into a ball of powder and fell rustlingly.

"Master, is there any progress?" Zhao Sheng asked cautiously upon seeing this.

"Oh, it's difficult! Still nothing is found. After all, the virtual world is not something that we, the lower cultivators, can peep into." Taoist Que Yue let out a long sigh, showing a bit of dejection.

For three years, he painstakingly studied Zhao Sheng's "teleportation" talent, but gained little. He only found that this rare talent seemed to be closely related to the legendary virtual world.

Regarding the virtual world, there are not many records in the Tiandao Sect. Que Yue only knows that Xuanying from the outside world comes from the virtual world, that the virtual world is the dark side of the universe, that the virtual world has nine interfaces, and so on.

In addition to these, the virtual world is still hidden behind many mysterious black curtains. It is ethereal, looking up and untouchable.

Later, Taoist Queyue turned into light and flew away. Zhao Sheng stood under the peach tree, looking at the distant sky with a look of deep contemplation in his eyes.

…

Half a month later, a ray of light suddenly broke through the clouds and quickly landed at the foot of a beautiful and tall mountain.

The brilliance dimmed, revealing Zhao Sheng's figure.

He looked up at the bluestone steps that went straight up. At the end of his gaze, the door of the Wutong Temple was wide open, and a long line of believers lined up to climb up the steps.

Three years later, the incense in Wutong Temple is so prosperous, which is really gratifying.

Sensing the five powerful waves coming from the mountain, Zhao Sheng's eyes flashed slightly and he followed the crowd towards the mountain.

"Mrs. Liu, I didn't expect you to come to the incense gathering today. I'm here to offer incense, or to fulfill my vows!"

"I came here specifically to fulfill my wish. My daughter-in-law has been here for three years but she still can't conceive a child, so I came to the temple to burn incense and beg for children to the Rat God half a month ago. Unexpectedly, just ten days later, my daughter-in-law became very happy. . After checking, it turns out that I am pregnant. So I must come today to fulfill my wish and offer three hundred taels of incense oil money."

"I have had bad luck the past few days. I will lose whatever I bet. No one can stop me today. As long as I can make a fortune, I will kneel down and die under the throne of the great toad."

".Blessed God, may this little girl find a husband as she pleases."

"."

The flow of people slowly moved upward, and groups of Wutong believers poured into the temple gate one after another. Zhao Sheng mixed in the crowd, climbed the thousand stone steps to the front of the temple, then crossed the threshold and walked into the front temple square.

Five huge incense cauldrons half as tall as a man are lined up in the center of the square. The yellow incense sticks in the cauldron are as thick as a child's arm and dense as a forest. The incense rises and spreads in all directions, making the square filled with smoke and hazy and mysterious.

Zhao Sheng crossed the crowd and the incense cauldron, walked through the square of Nuo Da, and came to the front of Wutong Temple.

After entering the temple and standing in front of the statue, Zhao Sheng's eyes suddenly glowed with a layer of dazzling divine light. He looked up and saw that the statue was glowing with golden light. A large area of ​​colorful light surrounded it, and the power of incense was extremely strong.

Zhao Sheng nodded with satisfaction, and then his consciousness suddenly spread out, locking on a person deep in the temple in an instant, and then a thought passed through.

Not long after, Ye Tianyun, who was short in stature and had the face of a boy, hurried to the palace. When he saw Zhao Sheng, his face was overjoyed. He was about to salute, but was stopped by Zhao Sheng's look.

"Sir, please come with me." Ye Tianyun nodded to him knowingly and sent the message.

Zhao Sheng smiled slightly, waved his sleeves, and spiritual power burst out like a tide, covering Ye Tianyun. In an instant, the two of them disappeared from the temple, but the believers next to them were unaware of it.

In an elegant quiet room deep in the temple, Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged on a futon and listened quietly.

Ye Tianyun stood at the bottom, excitedly reporting to the adults in detail the development of the Wutong Divine Sect in the past three years.

With the help of the five divine beasts, the power of the Wutong Divine Sect has grown by leaps and bounds. Not only has it quickly "unified" Qian'an County, but it has also extended its tentacles into several nearby states and counties.

Within three years, the Wutong Divine Cult swept through Songlan Mansion. Wutong believers in most of the prefectures and counties were incorporated into the Divine Cult system and subdued a group of Qi Refining casual cultivators.

Nowadays, the Wutong Divine Sect is prosperous and prosperous.

only

"Sir, the Tiandaofu Temple in Songlan Mansion has sent an ultimatum a few days ago, ordering us to restrain ourselves and not to cross the border to preach at will."

"Well, this matter is easy to solve." After Zhao Sheng heard this, he looked indifferent and waved his hand and threw out a sword command.

Ye Tianyun reached out to catch the sword order with a puzzled expression on his face.

Zhao Sheng ordered: "Send this sword order to the priest of Qingfeng Temple, and he will know how to do things in the future."

"Sir, this. This token——

Um!

Zhao Sheng raised his head and glanced at Ye Tianyun, and immediately forced back the rest of his words.

"I'll let you know what you need to know. If you don't need to know, don't ask!"

"Yes, I will remember your teachings."

Sensing the even more unfathomable aura from the master, Ye Tianyun's forehead was immediately covered with sweat, and he quickly raised his hands in salute.

…

The next day, the Wutong Temple on Nuanyu Peak suddenly announced that it would close the mountain and the temple for an uncertain time.

As soon as this news came out, countless Wutong believers were immediately confused, and some high-level missionaries from the divine religion went to the mountain to find out.

However, everyone was stopped outside the temple by Ye Tianyun and the five spiritual beasts, and was not allowed to enter the temple.

The Wutong Temple has been emptied, and there is no one in the temple except Zhao Sheng.

In the square in front of the temple, Zhao Sheng waved his hand and threw a formation flag more than ten feet high, which fell around the square.

The wind is strong and there are thirty-six dusty flags standing in the forest. The flags ripple in the wind and are filled with layers of spiritual light.

Not long after, a large amount of clouds and fog came up, filling the entire temple. Nuanyu Peak was soon shrouded in thick fog, making it difficult to see the mountain and the temple.

Zhao Sheng walked hurriedly around the square along a special route. Every few steps he took, balls of green light fell from his palms. The green light was wrapped in fist-sized array beads.

As soon as the green light touched the ground, it took the array beads with it and sank into the ground instantly, and then a little starlight lit up on the ground.

As the night gradually fell, the stars in the square were brilliant for a while, and the light intertwined like a tide, complementing the stars in the sky.

After the formation was set up, Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged in the center of the formation and began to close his eyes and adjust his breathing.

An hour later, when the Nether Star rose into the sky, Zhao Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, and two long rays of light shot out of his eyes.

As soon as I thought about it, I saw five groups of golden light suddenly rising from the depths of the night.

Five groups of golden light passed through the roof of the temple, and lightning flew in front of Zhao Sheng, turning into five "gods" that looked like humans but not humans, and stood in the sky.

These five miraculous gods are surrounded by five-colored divine light in the void, which is strange and magnificent.

However, Zhao Sheng knew that all these colors were transformed by the power of incense and contained all kinds of poisonous spirits and desires.

In an instant, the red lotus pattern between his eyebrows burst into red light. A ray of red light flew out, circled in the air, and suddenly expanded a thousand times, turning into a huge red fire lotus.

"The gods have returned to their thrones, go and rest!"

Zhao Sheng gave a low shout and saw the five evil gods jumping into the center of the fire lotus. After arranging the five elements, they sat cross-legged in the void.

boom!

The red lotus of karma fire burned blazingly, and tongues of fire licked the five evil gods. As soon as the magnificent and enchanting incense divine light was burned by the karma fire, it immediately reflected even more dazzling and magnificent colors.

At the same time, traces of "colorful impurities" began to rise out, and as soon as they broke away from the magnificent divine light, they disappeared from the void without a trace.

Zhao Sheng concentrated on it, raised his mind to the extreme, and manipulated the red lotus karma fire with great detail, refining the will power of all living beings bit by bit.

The power of incense is extremely difficult to refine. Even with Zhao Gao's superb fire control skills, it had to take forty-six days to refine all the power of incense into the power of wish.

Late that night, Zhao Sheng looked tired, but his eyes became more and more dazzling.

At this moment, in the center of the red lotus, the five nihilistic gods have shrunk more than ten times, showing five colors of red, white, green, black and yellow. The "colorfulness" around them has disappeared, but there is a trace of invisible and qualityless "smoke" connected with them.

"Smoke" is the concrete aspect of the will projected in Zhao Sheng's mind.

In fact, with his current level of cultivation, it should be impossible to sense the power of wishes.

Zhao Sheng was lucky. He indirectly "seeed" the power of wish through the close connection between the god of evil and the power of wish.

Looking at the five gods in mid-air, Zhao Sheng's eyes were solemn, he made a strange curse seal with his hands, and shouted: "Nine heavens and ten earths, the gods are at your call! The five gods have returned to their places!"

As soon as he finished speaking, five-color divine light fell from the sky and disappeared into Zhao Sheng's body.

In an instant, the five internal organs of the body, the liver, lungs, stomach, and kidneys, glowed brightly, and the five-color divine light circulated, and the illusion of five "gods" faintly appeared.

The five gods returned to their positions, and Zhao Sheng felt endless energy filling his body, and his heart was exhausted.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Sheng waved his hand and threw the ghost king's soul core into the karma fire.

The fire lotus released a fierce red spiritual fire, turning into a large fire cloud and dragging up the soul core.

The soul core fluctuated in the fire cloud, spinning around, and bursting out with layers of black light, trying to resist the burning fire of karma.

Zhao Sheng's heart was as calm as water, and he patiently controlled the fire of karma to continuously refine his soul core.

During the three-month refining period, the traces of pure will power in the five internal organs began to slowly transform the physical body as Zhao Sheng's thoughts changed, and the spiritual power automatically jumped to a higher level.

One day three months later, the blazing sun scorched the earth, Nuanyufeng Mountain was shrouded in thick fog, and the Wutong Temple remained closed.

Ye Tianyun was guarding the door, and the five spiritual beasts appeared and wandered deep in the clouds and mists from time to time, monitoring all the movements in the mountains and killing any uninvited guest who broke in without permission.

After waiting for nearly half a year, Ye Tianyun was also impatient. If it weren't for the powerful fluctuations of spiritual consciousness and spiritual power coming from the temple, he would have wanted to break into the temple and find out.

At dusk that day, strong winds roared, and the thick fog shrouding Nuanyu Peak began to disperse with the wind.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of several hundred miles suddenly converged on the temple from all directions.

Boom!

Suddenly there was a dull roar in the sky, Ye Tianyun's expression changed drastically, and he looked up at the sky.

I saw a sudden change in the sky, and large black clouds condensed out of thin air.

In the blink of an eye, black clouds came over the sky, and the sky and the earth were as dark as night. An indescribable aura of destruction was accumulating in the clouds, and could strike down the world at any time.

The calamity cloud is coming, and the thunder calamity is finally coming!
