Chapter 730 Heavenly Soul
On the top of the White Bone Mountain, a pure and rich aura of killing was spreading, making people feel suffocated.
No wonder the long-bearded man and the short-bearded ghost said before that no one except Ye Zang could practice here.
Only cultivators who follow the path of killing can keep their minds steady, and the killing consciousness here is the strongest among cultivators who practice other paths. Not to mention cultivators who practice other paths, even Ye Zang lost his mind briefly just now.
This divine cave is extremely suitable for cultivators of the Dao of Killing, but its murderous aura is so strong that it is not something that ordinary cultivators of the Dao of Killing can withstand. If they are not careful, it will trigger inner demons, make their spirits restless, and even lead to the demise of their souls.
On the top of the mountain, a faintly visible bone sword hangs high, pointing to the sky.
Even though it was just a phantom evolved from the residual divine consciousness, the cold and sharp aura still made people shudder. Countless monsters and monks had died at the hands of this magic sword.
The bone sword trembled slightly as if questioning the heavens.
"This White Bone Immortal proved his truth through killing and became an immortal in the last generation. He should have left behind a great reputation. Why are there even fewer stories about him than some ancient immortals..."
Ye Zang has always had this doubt in his mind.
The White Bone Immortal seemed to have suddenly appeared in the last era. No one knew his origins, nor did anyone know which fairyland he went to after ascending. All information about his magic also disappeared.
Over the years, Ye Zang was the first Taoist in the way of killing to reveal the strange image of the White Bone Immortal's divine possession.
If you think about it carefully, it seems that the whole journey since Yezang II entered Taoism has an inexplicable connection with Bai Gu Zhenren.
Just as he was thinking about it, the Oath-Breaking Sword Spirit flew out with joy in Ye Zang's Purple Palace.
This is his own natal spiritual weapon, which he has been nurturing since he entered the Tao. Unlike magical weapons such as the Wuxiang Ding, the spirit of the Oath-Breaking Sword always follows him, never leaving his side.
Influenced by Ye Zang's magic power and spiritual consciousness, the murderous aura of the Oath-Breaking Spirit is the same as his.
He seemed to like this place very much. He transformed into a skeleton and devoured the murderous aura in mid-air.
"You have awakened to intelligence at an early age, but why don't you become like Wuxiang Taoist Child and Yunxian Shuttle, speak human language and develop your true nature? Instead, you are still like a baby." Ye Zang said casually.
When the Oath-Breaking Weapon Spirit heard this, it showed some frustration, as if it understood what Ye Zang said.
Ye Zang and he were connected mentally, and he knew everything he was thinking, but he was still like a newborn baby, confused.
In the sky, the spirit of the Oath-Breaking Weapon transformed into a blood-red stream of light and roamed freely.
"Let's go into seclusion first. Now we need to enter the state of unity between man and nature as soon as possible..."
Ye Zang took a deep breath and didn't pay too much attention to the Oath-Breaking Sword. He had to improve his skills first.
With a thought, he set up several soul-protecting formations on the top of the White Bone Mountain. Then he sat cross-legged in the middle and formed the Sun and Moon seals with his hands.
The first level of He Dao is the state of unity between heaven and man, and what is cultivated is the "Heavenly Soul", one of the three main souls.
Now Ye Zang's spiritual power has been perfected in the Nascent Soul realm, but after entering the Taixu illusory realm, this shackle and bottleneck disappeared.
He observed a new world.
Within the Purple Palace, a twelve-petal lotus seat swayed, and the patterns of the Dao on it were clearly visible.
And above the sky of Zifu, there seems to be a spiritual path of divine consciousness, evolving from the petals of a twelve-petal lotus. This is the spiritual path leading to the sea of chaos.
At the beginning of entering the Dao, one builds the spiritual meridians. Then one opens up the divine treasures and practices the three realms of divine treasures [Dongtian Linghai Xianqiao]
This was a method of cultivation that the monks jointly researched after the last era of antiquity, but it was no longer applicable to Ye Zang now. He had already rebuilt the Shenzang before and embarked on a cultivation path that was different from this world.
Next is the three realms of Purple Mansion.
Golden elixir, primordial infant, and the unity of the Dao.
These three realms have not changed much compared to the Qi-refining practitioners in ancient times. The only difference is probably the Hedao realm.
In ancient times, Qigong practitioners did not need to travel to the Realm of Illusion to achieve the third level of Hedao. In ancient times, the Realm of Illusion was just a place for them to exchange Taoism.
Because the spiritual energy of the ancient earth is a hundred times richer than it is now, natural treasures can be found everywhere.
They all relied on the divine consciousness of heaven and earth to cultivate the three souls and seven spirits within the chaotic sea of consciousness.
But now, the laws of the ten continents have changed greatly, and even the path to immortality has been cut off. Such spiritual soil is totally insufficient to support cultivators to practice the three souls and seven spirits directly in the chaotic sea of consciousness.
The Land of Illusion, Taixu, has become the only spiritual land of divine consciousness. Here, there are opportunities for creation left by successive generations of cultivators of the Dao.
"The dark heart returns to Taixu, and the heaven and earth share the same life..."
In an instant, Ye Zang's enormous spiritual power emanated, and behind him, a Dharma image based on the Tai Chi Yin and Yang energies was formed.
In an instant, thousands of waves were stirred up in Ye Zang's chaotic sea of consciousness.
Within his soul, a heavenly soul gradually walked out of his body. This 'heavenly soul' was exactly the same as Ye Zang, but it had no expression and no spirituality, like a stiff corpse.
It is obvious that Tianhun has not yet practiced, and his magical power is even weaker.
"I have to stay in seclusion for a while."
Ye Zang thought about it and flicked his sleeves. Tianhun, under his control, sat opposite Ye Zang. Their spiritual orifices were connected to each other, and Tianhun's Dharma body also formed the same seal as Ye Zang's.
The breath of the moon and the sun was like the ocean, surrounding him and nourishing his Dharma body.
The so-called three souls and seven spirits are just the basics.
Back then on the ancient treasure island, the Hedao elder of Dongsheng Shenzhou was only at the first level of Hedao, but his methods were unparalleled. With the help of the Dharma bodies derived from his spiritual consciousness, he was able to force Ye Zang into a desperate situation.
If the elder had been more decisive and directly sacrificed his Heavenly Soul Dharma Body, he might have caused greater damage to Ye Zang. However, he was wary of Ye Zang's background in the Divine Religion, because a Hedao cultivator could fight against the enemy thousands of miles away.
If the elders of the Divine Religion who have cultivated the Taixu Divine Soul take action, they can rescue Ye Zang in an instant.
On the top of the White Bone Mountain, two figures sat facing each other. The enormous power of the moon and the sun rose, and the surroundings were quiet and silent, as if time and space had stopped.
……
In the Valley of Gods and Demons, above the Ninth Heaven, hundreds of Hedao elders looked down below.
One of the petals of Ziwei Yuanjun's Hedao lotus has already closed, which means that a disciple from a major sect has passed through Ziwei Yuanjun's Hedao spiritual path and entered the gate of the Great Illusionary Realm.
Many elders and true masters tried their best to use their spiritual consciousness to explore the secret treasure and find out who had broken through the spiritual path.
"Which sect's disciples are so fast? It's only been less than seven days." An elder raised his eyebrows.
"The Hedao Gate has been closed. It's too late to think about looking for someone now."
"If you're curious, why don't you go take a look at the origin?"
"Master Wang is about to come here to suppress the demon and send him into the Nine Abysses. This is a rare event that will be recorded in the ancient books of the Ten Continents."
A group of Hedao Zhenjuns were discussing. The demon's soul in the God-Demon Rift Valley had been suppressed for such a long time that it had shown signs of fatigue. Although it was not obvious, the powerful Hedao Zhenjuns noticed it.
"This beast has not yet cultivated into the realm of Taixu Spirit and Soul, otherwise it would be troublesome." An elder breathed a sigh of relief.
"Just wait for Master Wang to come with the instrument of the Great Dao and suppress this demon in the Nine Abysses!"
Master Wang is the supreme elder of Daotian Island and Zi Yao's mentor.
The reason why he rushed here was probably because of the Nascent Soul Secret Treasure, which was the place where the disciples of Dongsheng and Tianming continents had previously fought for. The owner of this Nascent Soul Secret Treasure during his lifetime was a close friend of this Master Wang.
While many Hedao Zhenjun were discussing, another lotus petal closed.
"who is it!"
This time the elders learned their lesson and immediately pushed their spiritual consciousness to the extreme to observe the secret treasures of Hedao.
However, he still didn't have time to see the disciple's face clearly.
They only saw a vague soul disappearing at the end of the spiritual road in the north and stepping into the gate.
"This is the aura of the Yin-Yang Eyes. Which ancient sect does this woman come from?" someone frowned.
Old Man Zhenyu said nothing, but with his powerful spiritual sense, he naturally saw it.
However, his mind was on the spiritual road heading due east. Princess Jianjia was wearing a goose yellow Taoist robe and was walking with difficulty.
On the other spiritual paths, Taichu Saint Son, Jian Shisi and others were also fighting. The restrictions above were very different, but Ye Zang had left them a wisp of his own soul in the form of a purple lotus petal, which could help them avoid many killing array restrictions, so they basically had the upper hand.
Time flies, and half a year has passed in a flash.
Within the Hedao secret treasure, the last lotus petal closed, and the last disciple to step into the Hedao gate was Jiang Yijing from Dongsheng Shenzhou.
The True Dragon Spirit was galloping at the end of the spiritual road. She moved forward fearlessly, killing many other cultivators on the spiritual road and entering the gate of Hedao.
Just at the moment when all the lotus petals of Ziwei Yuanjun closed.
The entire secret treasure trembled, as if it was about to retreat completely and float again in the God and Demon Rift Valley.
"Hurry up and open the seal of the secret treasure and let the other disciples come out!" someone said.
Old Man Zhenyu has already taken action. He flexed his fingers and circled them. His huge hand of spiritual consciousness covered the array pattern, and he pressed down with one hand covering the sky.
Rumbling--
The secret of Hedao is hidden above the sky, and the clouds and mist are parted to reveal the light.
They closed the entrance to the Hedao secret treasure house because they were afraid that the demon would run in and not only kill the disciples, but also use the Hedao spiritual road to go directly to the Taixu illusory world. If this happened, it would be a huge disaster that would affect the entire ten continents. That's why the Hedao True Lords from all continents would work together to suppress the demon first.
Normally their relationship is not that good. Whenever their souls meet, they have to discuss the Dao in the Nine Heavens. Especially for the elders of Hedao from Dongsheng and Tianming continents, it is a rare scene to be able to sit down and discuss Dao in a calm manner.
In an instant, the souls of many disciples flew out from the Hedao Secret Treasure at high speed.
This number is much less than when the Hedao Secret Treasure was just opened. At least tens of thousands of talented disciples died in this opportunity. But those who survived have stayed on the spiritual path for so long and gained a lot. It is only a matter of time before they can find the Taixu Illusion Realm when they return to the sect for retreat in the future.
"That devil is about to riot, keep a close eye on him." someone warned.
Hundreds of elders worked together, riding on the clouds. Their enormous spiritual power shook the might of heaven and gathered into a sea of spiritual consciousness.
The demon was pressed tightly on the phantom of the lotus seat. The secret treasure of Hedao was about to be closed. The demon could no longer sit still and roared madly, trying to break free from this restraint.
In a moment, the sky was dark and gloomy, and hurricanes and heavy rain swept across the sky with terrifying force.
The disciples who had just come out of the Hedao Secret Treasure opened their eyes wide, and without saying a word, they immediately returned to their bodies and hurriedly stayed away from the God and Demon Rift, for fear of being affected.
After controlling the demon, the elders breathed a sigh of relief.
After waiting quietly for another half a day, a Taoist with white hair and a youthful face came from the direction of Daotian Island.
He strolled leisurely in the garden, each step covering a distance of ten thousand feet, and moved nimbly and flexibly in the nine heavens.
"Junior greets the real person!" When the Hedao real masters of Tianming Continent saw the visitor, they immediately bowed and saluted.
There were quite a few Hedao Zhenjun from Dongsheng here. They also stood up and bowed casually.
After all, the two continents are enemies, but the turmoil caused by the devil's soul concerns the entire ten continents. When it comes to major issues, the Taoists of the two continents will still work together for a short time. If the devil runs into the illusory realm of Taixu, the practice of all the True Lords of Hedao will be hindered.
"Please help and suppress this demon." Old Man Zhenyu stood up and said in a gentle tone.
"I came here precisely because of this matter, but I will take action after I have collected my old friend's secret treasure."
Master Wang smiled calmly, then he focused his attention towards the God and Demon Rift Valley. Inside the secret Nascent Soul storage that floated in the evil spirit, there was an aura that he was very familiar with.
After observing for a few breaths, Master Wang raised his eyebrows and said with concentration: "It turns out that there are still several younger generations' bodies still in the secret storage."
"Oh?" Elder Youhedao raised his eyebrows.
Master Wang narrowed his eyes and extended his palm downward.
His magic palm instantly covered the sky, blocking out the sun, as if it were day and night.
The vast magical power shook the Valley of Gods and Demons and forcibly pulled up the entire Nascent Soul secret treasure.
This is the method used by Taoist Master Daotai. He has a cavernous world in his palm and uses his boundless magic power and powerful consciousness to directly form a world of one inch in size in his palm. This method is simply terrifying. Taoist Master Daotai would never take action in the Ten Continents. If a fight breaks out, the world will be turned upside down and even gods and ghosts will tremble.
In the cracks of the realm where the Nascent Soul was secretly hidden, the bodies of several disciples were also photographed by Master Wang.
"That is the Son of the Beginning."
"And Xue Ning whom I taught..."
"Ye Zang, Sword Fourteen!"
A group of Hedao Zhenjun showed meaningful expressions and looked at the bodies of Ye Zang and others.
If we were to destroy their physical bodies at this moment, Tianmingzhou’s inheritance would be cut off.
Especially those Hedao elders of Dongsheng, their eyes were so gloomy that water seemed to be dripping out of them when they looked at Ye Zang's body. Ye Zang once killed so many disciples of the Eight Immortal Sects and Six Demon Sects on the Ancient Treasure Island, causing them to suffer heavy losses.
In the Ninth Heaven, many elders were silent and the atmosphere became somewhat frozen. The identities of those disciples were too special, they were all the inheritors of the major sects in Tianming, and their souls were missing.
Obviously, we are now in the illusory world of Taixu.
