: The 9th Burial Coffin
Chapter 666: Ninth Generation Burial Coffin
"The Shocking Divine Formation, the Nine Palaces Locking Dragon, the Myriad Ascension Formation, the Twelve Gates to Heaven, the Yin-Yang Mother-Child Formation, the Eight Trigrams and the Two Principles."
The spirit of the Six Strategies sorted out six large formations for Ye Zang that were suitable for engraving within his divine veins, each with its own unique magical power.
These are the ancient formations that Ye Zang once performed.
There are many formations engraved on the Six Strategies Formation Plate, but most of them are used for defense and require many cultivators to control them together to maximize their power.
"You need to give my disciple Huang Puchang more guidance on the art of formation," Ye Zang said.
"Okay!" After the spirit of the Six Strategies bowed, its figure returned to the void again.
Ye Zang took a deep breath and sank his consciousness into his Taoist body, observing the major acupoints and divine veins. At this moment, it was already filled with the bloody aura of the Immortal Bridge. As a bridge, it connected the outside world and the road to Shenzang, absorbing spiritual essence.
Next, he planned to engrave array patterns inside to use as a defensive measure.
There is no rush for this. Ye Zang already had the experience from the previous two times, so he was more cautious when carving the formation on his body.
He spent half a year carving array patterns and restrictions throughout his divine veins and major acupoints.
Now, the entire Shenzang world is filled with a chilling murderous aura.
The three great demon caves in the sky are bursting with divine power. Above the earth, the prototype of the fairy spring, which is formed with the spiritual seeds of the heaven as the origin, is flowing with blood-colored spiritual essence.
Above the Shenzang barrier, it seemed that there were countless immortal bridges, which were constantly absorbing the spiritual energy of the outside world and feeding it back to the Shenzang.
Killing is a tradition passed down from generation to generation, and Ye Zang's divine possession has now been consolidated again!
Although his Taoism realm seems to have not improved and is still at the Nascent Soul stage, Ye Zang knows that his ability to use magical powers and fight is now more powerful than before, and his skills are extremely domineering.
His current strength can no longer be simply measured by the cultivation realm of the Ten Continents.
……
Inside a jade pavilion in Langya Palace, Ye Zangshu and Ao Han stood side by side, gazing into the distance.
The vast East China Sea is rolling with huge waves, and the distant horizon is shrouded in clouds and mist.
Everything seems peaceful and tranquil, but Ye Zang knows that a terrible murderous intention is brewing on this land, and such peaceful days are coming to an end.
"Has the Little Saint Mie Tian not returned yet?" Ye Zang asked, remembering something.
Hearing this, Shu Aohan shook his head and said calmly: "The original fairy city in the middle of Tianming had a riot a few months ago. Many soldiers in the fairy city rushed out and caused quite a commotion."
The original soldiers in the Immortal City still have their physical bodies, but their spiritual consciousness has been damaged, leaving only their subconscious intelligence. They have been guarding the Immortal City for endless years. I don’t know what Ji Beilin and the Little Saint Mie Tian did to cause those creatures to riot.
"Where are you going?" Shu Aohan asked.
Ye Zang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "My Nascent Soul Dharmakaya has been cultivated to perfection, and the Dao-integrating pattern on the twelve-grade lotus seat has reached perfection. I feel that my soul is about to leave my body. It is time to find the right time to travel through the void and enter the Dao-integrating realm."
Shu Aohan seemed to be thinking about what he said, and then said, "There is a jade disk of inheritance in Fuyuan Lake, which can calm the mind and contemplate the spiritual consciousness. Do you want to go there for retreat?"
"There are better places to go." Ye Zang said with a smile.
"where?"
"Nine-generation burial coffin." Ye Zang said. What he was talking about was naturally the inherited sacred object of the Corpse Demon Sect.
Shu Aohan was slightly startled, then said: "The Taoists from Beixuanzhou often invade the northern border area. There are frequent disturbances there now. Is it inappropriate to go to the Corpse Demon Sect now?"
Ye Zang seemed to be thinking about something. He took Shu Aohan's hand and asked, "Senior Sister, what do you think about the future situation of the Ten Continents?"
Hearing this, Shu Aohan thought for a few breaths and replied, "The world is about to fall, and a great era is about to begin. My Divine Cult has been planning for many years, and should be able to withstand it. My parents have also allowed me to concentrate on my cultivation over the years and have never been concerned about these things. I think they have also dealt with it within the clan."
"Do you know that the master doesn't have much time left?" Ye Zang said sternly with sharp eyes.
Hearing this, Shu Aohan was stunned. Her beautiful eyes trembled suddenly, and she said in astonishment: "Junior brother, you can't say such things. Master is so powerful, how could he pass away so early?!"
After all, Chen Baishan was Shu Aohan's teacher. Although there might be an exchange of interests between Fu Yuan Daze and Chen Baishan, Shu Aohan had also kowtowed to him three times and nine times. Ye Zang's words were somewhat offensive to him.
"After the discussion at Tianmu Mountain, the opportunities in Tianming Continent have disappeared, secret treasures have continued to emerge from everywhere, and the spiritual places on all sides are slowly disappearing. They can only last for a thousand years at most. The immortal springs of our sect are also drying up, and the lifespan of the monks has been sharply reduced. Many elders in the sect have already died." Ye Zang's eyes sank slightly, and he spoke word by word.
Chen Baishan has been in the position of headmaster for quite a long time.
Most of his fellow disciples of the same generation have also died.
The reason why Ye Zang said this was because of the internal strife of the Divine Religion in the previous life. It was precisely because of Chen Baishan's death that
For a time, the bishops were leaderless, which led to the rebellion on Shenzhao Island. The Dragon and Tiger Dharma King was forced to clean up his own clansmen and kill 80% of his own people. Only then did he quell the rebellion. However, because of this, the Divine Religion lost one of its five major inherited families, and its strength was greatly reduced.
After this incident, the five major inherited families of the Divine Religion, the twenty-four noble families, and the disciples of the poor lineage were almost disunited.
At that time, there had been constant disputes within the Divine Religion regarding the selection of a new leader. For this reason, the elders and even several Dharma Kings had fought each other. Open and covert fighting were commonplace, and some even did not hesitate to pin the label of apostasy on others for the sake of party struggles.
The Jade Sky Dharma King and the Green Snake Dharma King, who usually live a peaceful life, were dragged into the situation.
"We must respond early. Future changes are unpredictable. When we have no choice, we can only protect ourselves." Ye Zang's words were already very obscure.
The situation in the Divine Religion is very complicated. There are too many aristocratic families, as well as disciples from humble backgrounds headed by Luo Jingyang.
Ever since Ye Zang and Shu Aohan became Taoist partners, some of the poor disciples were already unhappy in their hearts, although they did not show it.
In this life, Luo Jingyang would have died in Chigui Ridge, but because of the appearance of Ye Zang, not only did he survive, but he also gained a lot from the subsequent training and discussions on Tianmu.
His current talent and accomplishments are second only to Shu Aohan and Ye Zang among his peers, and his momentum is growing stronger. The poor disciples regard him as their leader, and he is a strong force in the bishop's territory.
"I understand..." Shu Aohan nodded hesitantly, then said sharply: "Don't worry, leave everything about Langya Palace to me, you don't have to worry."
Ye Zang took a deep breath and held her in his arms.
Over the years, he has won over the South China Sea Fox Tribe, the Yuxuan Valley where Qiu Yunque is located, and also supported the "Chenyuan Sect", allowing Song Shuchang to live with his senior and junior brothers in the Babo Spiritual Land.
The reason he did all this was to build up his own power in the bishop's territory.
If any changes occur in the future, he will have his own power to rely on. Fuyuan Daze has his own position. As the saying goes, a daughter who is married off is like spilled water. Shu Aohan is now a member of Langya Palace.
When it comes to the last resort, Ukifuchi Osawa might not completely stand by Yezo.
Before leaving, Ye Zang looked at his disciple Huang Puchang again.
What reassured Ye Zang was that her practice of "Langya Atlas" was going very smoothly. The three hundred thousand year old thunder-breathing treasures that she had nurtured in the Thunder Cave were now completely renewed, and her magical powers and spiritual attainments had greatly improved.
After saying something to everyone, Ye Zang prepared to go to the Corpse Demon Sect. The situation in each department was tense, and the younger generation was growing at a very fast speed, leaving them with little time.
……
Riding the big boat, Ye Zang sped through the sky, heading north.
With the magical power of his current Taoist body, he did not need to be restricted at all. He used all his strength to drive the boat, and his magical power did not decrease at all.
Because Shenzang was absorbing the spiritual essence of heaven and earth all the time, the refining speed of the Twelve-Level Lotus Seat was also extremely fast, and it was equivalent to having a fairy spring in Ye Zang's body.
Standing with his hands behind his back, Ye Zang overlooked the magnificent mountains and rivers of Tianmingzhou.
His vast spiritual awareness emanated, and his soul unconsciously left his body. The light of his Dharma Eye covered an area of hundreds of thousands of feet. It seemed as if the whole world was under his eyes, and not even the figure of a butterfly flapping its wings could escape his Dharma Eyes.
"The secret treasures from all over the place have been uncovered. They are too numerous to count." Ye Zang thought to himself.
This may be the last splendor of Tianmingzhou. It is like a candle that is burning its last inch. After this, there will be endless darkness. When all opportunities are gone, Tianmingzhou is about to come to an end.
Walking out of the Immortal Burial Sea, Ye Zang flew across the swamps and mountains.
In the first heaven, Ye Zang’s Dharma eyes seemed to see the Taihua Sky Boat, which was wandering in the first heaven like a giant beast Kunpeng.
Heading north, Ye Zang spent two days and arrived at the northern part of Tianming Continent.
The earth was a deep black, the mountains and rivers here were all in ruins, a thick smell of corpses was floating in the air, and the gleams of monsters were almost invisible.
Corpses can be seen everywhere on the ground veins.
We have already reached the territory of the Corpse Demon Sect. The founder of the Corpse Demon Sect is a contemporary of Master Jackdaw. He was also born in the Nine Saints Era. At the end of the ancient times, the founder of the Corpse Demon Sect served as an official in the ancient dynasty of Tianming Continent.
After this ancient dynasty fell into ruin with the catastrophe, the leader of the Corpse Demon Sect attained enlightenment beside the remains of an immortal and founded the Corpse Demon Sect. He then quickly rose in the world and became one of the most brilliant figures in Tianming Continent at that time.
Rumbling--
Above the earth, the smell of corpses is rolling, and it seems that there is always darkness here, which is terrifying.
"No wonder the Taoist from Beixuanzhou keeps talking about the Tianming demon all the time. Judging from the style of this disciple of the Corpse Demon Sect, it would not be an exaggeration to call him a devil even in the mouth of the Taoist from Tianmingzhou." Ye Zang thought to himself.
Even though the head of the tomb and Ye Zang got along very well, Ye Zang knew that this guy was a murderer without blinking an eye. When he was young, he would kill people if he disagreed with them. He was notorious in the north.
After flying for another half an hour, Ye Zang could vaguely see a huge ruin.
Above the ruins, gray mist blocked out the sky and the atmosphere was very depressing.
Under the earth veins, you can often hear sounds like ghost howling, which makes people feel refreshed.
Glancing with his Dharma eyes, Ye Zang saw a large Tianxuan formation covering the ruins. There were more than a dozen of them, forming layers of protection that were impenetrable.
Ye Zang had just approached the place within a thousand feet when a gust of cold wind came.
A dozen disciples of the Corpse Demon Sect wearing gray robes came flying in the air, their faces pale and bloodless.
"I wonder which senior is visiting my sect. Please tell me your name!"
Those disciples bowed from a distance, their tone was cold but polite.
Ye Zang is now at the third level of Yuanying. In the lesser sects, he is already qualified to be the headmaster of a school.
"Burial Sea of Immortals, Ye Zang." Ye Zang said immediately.
"Senior Ye?" Several disciples were shocked upon hearing this, and looked at Ye Zang with surprise. After all, the latter's reputation was now known to everyone in the Ten Continents. He was the leader of the discussion on Taoism in one continent and a genius cultivator of his generation.
"This junior is blind and does not recognize a great man. Senior Ye, please come in quickly!"
"The head of my sect has already informed us that if Senior Ye comes to visit, we must give him a respectful reception."
More than a dozen disciples flew over, bowed deeply to Ye Zang, and then took him to the depths of the ruins.
The Shisha Sect was built on the ruins of an ancient dynasty.
The palaces and caves above the earth veins were just places where the outer disciples stayed. The core area of the corpse demons was below the earth veins.
Ye Zang followed the disciples guarding the gate and came to a huge, deep pit. The air was filled with a thick and pungent smell of corpses.
A stone staircase leads to the depths.
After walking for several thousand feet, Ye Zang finally arrived inside the Corpse Demon Gate.
There are many huge tombs here, which are very ancient. There are caves built in various veins of the ground, and many corpses are walking in the moist black soil.
Among those corpses, there was actually a well-preserved body of a Taoist master, emitting a majestic spiritual energy.
Originally, there were many dead people in the ancient dynasties, and their bodies were buried here. The bodies of the elders of the Corpse Demon Sect who had passed away were also buried in the spiritual soil after their death.
The fairy spring here was born from this.
They arrived at a huge cave deep in the cave. This cave was very eerie. In the spiritual soil outside the door alone, there were hundreds of corpses of ancient powerful men buried, emitting a faint glow.
"Brother Ye, you are finally here!"
The head of the tomb laughed loudly, his eyes slightly gloomy, and walked out with a huge aura.
Ye Zang took a casual look and found that his cultivation had reached the third level of the Nascent Soul Stage, and his Dharma body could manifest to at least nine thousand feet, and that was not even the limit.
You know, five years ago he was still at the second level of Nascent Soul Perfection.
"Sorry for bothering you." Ye Zang smiled and bowed.
The head of the tomb walked side by side with Ye Zang, and the two continued to pace towards the underground of the Corpse Demon Gate.
He didn't even think about Ye Zang's purpose in coming to the Corpse Demon Sect.
"The Nine-Life Burial Coffin is next to my sect's Fairy Spring. Brother Ye, follow me." The head of the tomb walked while talking to Ye Zang about the magical power of this object.
"The burial coffin has gone through nine generations. After the master of our sect passed away in each generation, his Taoist body and soul would be buried in this tomb. After countless years, a world has been opened up in the tomb, which is an illusory secret treasure of the Tao."
There are thousands of secret treasures in the world, but the most mysterious ones are the secret treasures formed by the Hedao consciousness, which can only be reached by the primordial spirit.
