Chapter 378
The Way of Dharma Form
Looking at his master, who stood spiritedly amidst the rolling thunder, Zhou Sheng couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.
Sixty-seven years old is the age for striving.
With such a capable master, he can rest easy in the future. When encountering enemies, he will no longer need to rack his brains and think things through. He can simply let his master take the lead.
Boom!
Just as he was pondering this, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down. It was as thick as a bowl and unlike ordinary blue lightning, it emitted a faint jade-like light.
The Jade Thunder Tribulation is the legendary Jade Pivot Divine Thunder, the first of the Thirty-Six Thunders. It is said to be the manifestation of the Heavenly Venerable Dao Pivot and the supreme master of all thunders, possessing extremely terrifying power.
Most importantly, this lightning can directly affect the primordial spirit. Even if your physical body is indestructible, if the power of your primordial spirit is not strong enough, you will still die and your soul will perish.
Feeling the power of the Jade Lightning Tribulation, Zhou Sheng's relaxed heart began to race again.
Master had survived this Jade Lightning Tribulation once before, and now he had to rebuild his foundation again. Although he had experience with it, Master was getting old after all.
"Haha, well done!"
Yu Zhensheng pointed his finger, and a huge image of Guan Gong appeared behind him. With a swing of his crescent blade, he actually split the lightning in two.
However, another bolt of lightning struck down quickly, this time with even greater power and a brighter jade light.
Guan Gong's image was slain again.
Thus, through the power of the Dharma Form, Yu Zhensheng slashed down five bolts of lightning in one go, but when the sixth bolt of heavenly lightning struck, the power of the Dharma Form finally dissipated.
But Yu Zhensheng laughed heartily, and once again gathered his Qi, his essence, energy and spirit actually rose again, and a new Dharma form appeared behind him.
With three eyes on its face and a heavenly eye on its forehead, it observes the calamities and blessings of the three realms; with nine bends in its palms and thunder snakes wrapped around its fingers, it holds the fortune and misfortune of all spirits!
The Five Manifestations Radiant Emperor, the Three-Eyed Spirit Official, Marshal Ma!
This lifelike image truly resembles the descent of Emperor Huaguang, who, facing the heavenly lightning, even flashed a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
With a flick of his golden spear, which subdues demons and ghosts, nine fire dragons coiled around the shaft, spewing forth the true light of samadhi, piercing the thunder from below.
The Jade Lightning Tribulation continued to fall, but it seemed to weaken in front of Emperor Huaguang. The subsequent lightning was either shattered by the golden spear or burned through by the fiery eyes of the Dharma Image.
After the ninth lightning strike, the Jade Lightning Tribulation finally dissipated slowly.
Yu Zhensheng stood tall, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light. His aura was as deep and majestic as a mountain, and his magical power was so great that it was like a divine light soaring into the sky, illuminating the entire hundred-mile-long Dark Sea.
Returning to the Tribulation Transcending Realm!
Just as Zhou Sheng was about to congratulate his master, he saw a bright moon suddenly rise in the sky. The moonlight shone on his master and transformed into the extremely yin and cold Xuan Yin power, freezing his body and soul.
The icy chill spread from Master to all directions, and in just a few breaths, the entire island was covered in ice crystals, which even continued to spread to the sea surface.
Mysterious Yin Calamity!
Zhou Sheng was shocked and couldn't help but marvel at his master's spirit and ambition. The old man not only had to overcome the tribulation, but he had to overcome two tribulations in a row.
At the same time, he also discovered that the great path his master cultivated was the path of Dharma.
Gods and all living beings, dragons, elephants, oxen, and horses, are all forms.
Using the methods of yin-yang magic, they borrow the appearances of all living beings to perform divine deeds.
Over the years, Master has endured hardships and tempered his Dao heart. He worships the patriarchs every day. Although his physical skills have deteriorated, his Dao heart has become more calm and clear, and his understanding of the Dao of Dharma has deepened day by day.
In particular, the image of the patriarch has attained samadhi and realized the true spirit.
Previously, his magical power was insufficient and his golden core was incomplete. Even if he comprehended it, he could not wield it. Now that the golden core has entered his abdomen and his magical power is as vast as the sea, he is naturally filled with boundless pride and wants to use a golden spear to subdue demons and ghosts to cross the two tribulations and suppress the heavens.
Click!
Just as Zhou Sheng was momentarily stunned, the frozen Huaguang Emperor's Dharma Image suddenly exploded, with endless flames soaring into the sky. In particular, a wisp of innate fire energy shot out from the Emperor's fiery eye between his brows, heading straight for Xuan Yue.
The power of Xuan Yin melted away like ice and snow, and the world was filled with boiling water mist. In the dim light, the bright moon gradually disappeared.
The Mysterious Yin Tribulation is broken!
Yu Zhen blew a loud blast, his beard fluttered, and a strong wind swept through, dispersing the clouds and mist, and the world returned to its clear state.
He had already withdrawn his Dharma form, and although his face showed slight fatigue, his eyes were extremely bright, and he was full of energy and vitality, as if he had become more than ten years younger.
"I'm getting old after all, otherwise I would have definitely survived three tribulations in one go today and returned to my peak!" He was still somewhat unsatisfied and laughed at his disciple, his tone frighteningly arrogant.
It turns out that when he was at the peak of his cultivation, he was a Human Immortal at the Three Tribulations Realm. Even after undergoing two tribulations today, he still did not reach his former peak.
"Master, how is your leg?"
Yu Zhensheng smiled slightly, then stood on one leg, bent the other knee and lifted it up, with the instep of his foot pressed against the knee of the standing leg. He focused his mind and stood like a crane standing alone on a cold shore.
This is the posture of a crane standing upright.
Without stopping, he performed various poses, including the Sheep Stance, the Sea Probe, the Skyward Kick, the Swallow Step, and the Single-Leg Spear Kick, all using his previously crippled leg for support.
Her movements were fluid and graceful, without any of the awkwardness of the past.
Zhou Sheng looked at his seemingly energetic and tireless master with a smile in his eyes. Today, his master was like an old child, never able to sit still for a moment.
Seeing his master so happy, Zhou Sheng felt that all the hard work and difficulties were worthwhile.
The hearts of disciples are pitiful.
After performing for quite a while, Yu Zhensheng finally stopped and regained some of his usual composure.
Yu Tianheng could hardly stand it anymore. He curled his lip in disdain and said, "Hmph, isn't it just because he benefited from his disciple's fame? What's so great about that?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhensheng chuckled, his eyebrows raised in delight.
"You stubborn old donkey, it seems that not only in opera singing, but also in your ability to train apprentices, you are miles behind me, hahaha!"
"you--"
Yu Tianheng glared angrily, wanting to retort but finding himself speechless. In the end, he could only glare fiercely at his good-for-nothing disciple.
Tan Sheng: "..."
To prevent the two elders from arguing again, Zhou Sheng quickly changed the subject and talked about Zhang Sanfeng taking away the red thread and Monkey King.
Yu Zhensheng clicked his tongue in amazement and said, "I never expected that Hongxian would have such good fortune to be able to follow Master Zhang in cultivation. This is an incredible blessing."
"Master, Elder Yu, there's something else..."
Zhou Sheng looked at everyone, a smile flashing in his eyes, and said, "It's time for us to divide the spoils. There are many good things hidden in the Bodhisattva's treasure trove. Now that you've all come out of seclusion, let's divide them together."
He has always adhered to the principle that one should be able to share both hardship and happiness with one's own people.
He doesn't like to keep good things to himself; instead, he wants everyone to benefit from them.
Unexpectedly, Yu Zhensheng laughed loudly and shook his head, saying, "I have already taken what belongs to this old man. You can divide the rest among yourselves."
Yu Tianheng nodded and said, "I haven't made much of a contribution either. My master and I will only take one thing, and the rest is yours."
"Yes, Boss Long, this victory is all thanks to your strategic planning. Without you, I probably wouldn't have been able to leave the stage alive."
Tan Sheng completely agreed. If that blow had landed squarely, he, the fake Monkey King, would have died on the spot.
Even the members of the Zhou family troupe firmly declined, saying that they only needed some incense money.
Everyone looked at Zhou Sheng with an indescribable respect in their eyes, and many even showed a look of admiration.
Zhou Sheng's prestige had reached an extremely high level, without him even realizing it.
“In that case, I will make the decision myself.”
