Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 442: The Record of the Dividing of the Treasures in the Immortal Palace, the Phoenix Imprisoned in the Bell Tells the Past (The Immortal Palace, Complete)
At the edge of the Wanlei Sea, the sea breeze blows in with a salty and humid smell.

Lu Cheng stepped on the five elements of immortal energy, his robes rustling. Huang Longzi and the other two beside him looked at the East China Sea Abyss in the distance, which was gradually disappearing in the clouds, with different expressions.

"Although this trip was dangerous, the harvest was not small. Cheng'er, did you get the Bu Tian Zhi?" Huang Longzi asked.

"I have obtained the Bu Tian Zhi. According to the agreement, I will take 60% and the remaining 40% will be distributed to you after I find the master of alchemy."

Lu Cheng answered this, and at the same time, a Ganoderma lucidum with a crystal-clear body and pale golden veins appeared in his palm.

"In that case, Cheng'er, you can accept these spiritual objects."

Mie Hongzi and Chi Shenzi looked at each other, then took out the relics of the immortal palace that they had obtained and pushed them to Lu Cheng.

The Heaven-Repairing Pill, the shared treasure of the immortals from the upper realm, this exploration of the immortal palace is already a great opportunity.

What's more, the Baoguang Chamber of Commerce has been providing offerings continuously over the years, and both Miehongzi and Chishenzi have gained a lot of benefits. The reason why they wanted to divide the money before was to be able to give it away now to repay the favor.

At this moment, a green light suddenly came out of Lu Cheng's Qiankun Ring, trying to escape.

Lu Cheng reacted very quickly. He pointed his finger and released the Five Elements of Immortal Energy, which swept down and covered the green light.

This green light comes from the seventh-grade mid-level defensive magic weapon. The body of the bell is only the size of a palm, and it is as green as jade all over. The surface is engraved with obscure runes, and it is currently trembling slightly to spread its magic power.

The five elements of immortal energy all fluctuated slightly under his full resistance.

"Hmm?" Lu Cheng frowned, and the five elements of immortal energy flowed into the bell.

With a clear "clang" sound, the green bell suddenly flew out of his hand and turned into a figure about ten feet high in the air.

The mouth of the bell was facing downwards, and a ray of white light shot out from it, landed in mid-air and turned into a female cultivator in white.

"Who are you?" This situation happened suddenly, and Huang Longzi, Chi Shenzi and Mie Hongzi all drew their swords, and Mie Hongzi's sword was already pointing at the female cultivator's throat.

This female cultivator looked to be about twenty-two or twenty-three years old, with a face as pale as paper, but her magical powers were at the level of a spiritual being.

She looked around and barely managed to stand still, then looked at everyone, and finally her eyes fell on Lu Cheng.

Among the four, there is only one Yuanshen cultivator, so he is naturally the leader.

"I am Luo Qingyi from Tianyin Valley. Thank you for saving me." Her voice was hoarse, but it carried a strange rhythm:
"I think I have been imprisoned in this bell by that old devil with red eyes for more than a hundred years."

Lu Cheng frowned slightly when he heard this and looked at the female cultivator carefully.

Normally, the Qiankun Ring cannot contain living things. If you forcefully take them in and then let them out, 90% of them will become dead things.

However, Master Chi Tong's precious bell is of mid-grade seventh rank, while Lu Cheng's Qiankun Ring is only of mid-grade sixth rank. If it were not for the suppression of the Five Elements' immortal energy, it would not be possible to take it in at all. If it is forcibly taken in, the bell will be able to break free on its own once it regains some spirituality.

Then, it is not impossible that there is someone hidden inside the bell.

There have been such examples in the world of immortal cultivation:
A cultivator borrowed a sect's underground fire and alchemy cauldron to make an elixir. After the elixir was completed, he was coveted and besieged by the sect.

As a result, the cultivator released several cultivators of the same level from the space magic weapon he carried with him, and directly destroyed the mountain gate of that sect and occupied Lingshan from then on.

Although the female cultivator in front of him looked haggard, she had an extraordinary demeanor, especially her eyes, which were as calm and firm as a deep pool.

Apparently, even though he had been imprisoned for a hundred years, his pride had not been worn away.

Lu Cheng suddenly remembered something. He looked at the green bell and then at the female cultivator and said, "Heavenly Sound Bell!? Are you the Fairy Jueyin who entered the Tao through music?"

The white-robed female cultivator smiled bitterly and replied, "I am not worthy of the title of fairy. I am just a fool who is ignorant of the times and ruined the Taoist tradition of my ancestors."

Huang Longzi also put down his sword, stroked his beard and said, "A hundred years ago, the Tianyin Valley was destroyed by the devil, and the current valley master has been missing since then. It turns out that you are imprisoned in this treasure."

One hundred years ago, Tianyin Valley was also a spiritual sect that influenced the whole world and had great authority. However, the current valley master, Fairy Jueyin, was obsessed with music and disliked worldly affairs, so the whole valley was suddenly wiped out. This was not known to the public until several years later, and it became an unsolved case in the world of immortal cultivation at that time.

Now it seems that Master Chitong found the opportunity, severely injured Luo Qingyi, and wiped out the entire Tianyin Valley, taking away the precious Tianyin Bell.

Lu Cheng noticed a circle of black lines on Luo Qingyi's wrist, which was the magic restriction.

However, with the death of Master Chitong, this evil restriction naturally could not restrain a spiritual cultivator.

In fact, after Master Chitong plotted against Luo Qingyi, he wanted to use the unorthodox method of collecting and replenishing energy to take away all of this girl's energy and spirit to help himself break through the bottleneck of his magical powers.

But it is difficult to do this without breaking his mind. The lifespan of a spiritual cultivator is long, so Master Chi Tong trapped Luo Qingyi in the Tianyin Bell, and tortured her slowly in darkness and imprisonment for thousands of years until her body and mind were damaged, until today.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, now that Master Chi Tong is dead, this Tianyin Treasure Bell has fallen into my hands. If you want to exchange it, you have to think carefully about what to exchange it for. What are your plans for the future?"

When Luo Qingyi heard the news that Master Chi Tong had died, she was stunned for a moment, with a complicated expression: "Tianyin Valley no longer exists, now...where should I go."

As a cultivator, Luo Qingyi's ability to cultivate her primordial spirit was undoubtedly a success.

However, as a sect leader, he is undoubtedly a failure if he cannot protect his sect and his disciples, causing the inheritance of the sect to be cut off and bringing shame to his ancestors.

Especially since Master Chi Tong was dead, Luo Qingyi no longer had a target for revenge after escaping. Her thoughts turned around and around, and it was hard to express them for a while.

The four people from Lu Cheng didn't care too much about her. They saved her life and helped her kill her enemies. They had already done her a great favor. Luo Qingyi wanted to get the Qingyin Bell back easily, but she couldn't. There was no such a cheap thing in the world.

Lu Cheng, his master Huang Longzi, and his two uncles Chi Shenzi and Mie Hongzi flew back to Wanleihai Qingyu Dao Palace. Then Chi Shenzi and Mie Hongzi took the island's teleportation array and teleported back to their own mountain gate dojo.

Although the gains from this exploration of the Immortal Palace were rich, Chi Shen Zi was seriously injured. Excessive use of the Sun God Fire Chain caused damage to his internal and external appearance and spirit. If it were not for the rare high-level healing pills from the Baoguang Chamber of Commerce, he would probably have to go through a tribulation and start over again.

Huang Longzi even lost his life and urgently needed to go into seclusion to heal his wounds and regain his true Huang Long blood.

Comparing the two, this is the power of physical cultivation. Under normal circumstances, any cultivator can only have one chance to overcome the calamity, which allows them to heal their injuries, start practicing again, and make up for the deficiencies in their past Taoist practice.

For physical cultivators at a high level, most of their internal and external injuries can be recovered through healing. Practicing Taoist transformation and ascension techniques can even give them multiple lives, which can be regarded as the supreme skill of physical cultivators.

However, the difficulty of physical cultivation lies in the fact that too much experience at a low level can easily damage the body and cause irreparable injuries.

However, with too little experience, it is difficult to fully comprehend the essence of physical cultivation, to reach a high level, and to recognize the changes in the Dharma body. This creates a dilemma.

Deep in the Ten Thousand Thunder Sea, the area within a thousand miles around is filled with purple lightning machines, making it difficult for cultivators to cross. However, in the central area, someone used his great magical powers to open up a spiritual island as his foundation.

After seeing off teacher Chi Shenzi and third uncle Mie Hongzi, Lu Cheng stepped on the five elements of immortal energy and flew across twelve sacred mountains. Finally, he selected one of them and sent out a communication talisman.

Then, when Lu Cheng raised his sleeves, a thumb-sized crystal man appeared in his palm.

Lu Cheng took out a small sword and cut Zhiren's wrist, then poured some spiritual liquid into a jade bottle.

After doing all this, he raised his hand and threw the crystal mushroom man on the top of the mountain. The mushroom man spun in the five-colored whirlwind and turned into a girl of seven or eight years old. She also quickly woke up and saw Lu Cheng grinning again, like a frightened little animal.

But when she wanted to do it again, she felt dizzy - too much blood had just been drained, so it was normal to feel dizzy.

"Master." At this time, Miao Chuyun came forward on the sword rainbow and saluted respectfully.

The magical power and prestige of this second disciple under Lu Cheng's guidance are growing day by day, and now she has the aura of being the eldest senior sister of the sect.

Seeing his close disciple nod slightly, Lu Cheng pointed at the girl below and said:
"This girl's true form is a ten-thousand-year-old Orchid Tree. Although she has transformed, she has not yet awakened her spiritual wisdom. From now on, she is your disciple. You should spend more time teaching her. If you can achieve something on your path, it will be on her."

Lu Cheng said this with a smile.

"Disciple, obey."

Miao Chuyun didn't know about the Bu Tian Zhi and Bu Tian Dan, but she always regarded her master's orders as the laws of nature. As long as Lu Cheng gave her instructions, she would do her best.

……

The night was as dark as ink, and the starlight was sparse above the Wanlei Sea. Only the spiritual light from the Taoist Palace's prohibitions illuminated the mountains.

Deep inside the Qingyu Taoist Palace, on a Yin-Yang platform, the surface was engraved with Zhoutian star runes, which were flickering with the breathing of the Taoist priest on it.

Lu Cheng sat cross-legged in the center, his robes moving without wind, and wisps of chaotic five-element immortal energy lingering around him. He spontaneously absorbed and exhaled the spiritual power of heaven and earth and repaired the damage.

The spiritual cultivators have profound magical powers and strong bodies, but it takes some time to repair them after the war, especially for the physical cultivators, who have to cherish them like a virgin and use them like a diamond.

The aftereffects of the successive fierce battles with several Yuanshen cultivators still lingered faintly in his meridians. Lu Cheng looked around him and saw a few wisps of gray air entangled in the golden and red surroundings. Those were the injuries and evil spirits left behind by the Yuanshen demon cultivator's counterattack before his death.

Seeing this, Lu Cheng was not in a hurry. A jade bottle flew out of his sleeve, and a Red Sun Pill was poured out of it. The pill pattern was like flowing lava.

As soon as this pill enters the mouth, it turns into a blazing torrent that washes over the limbs and bones, blending with the five elements of immortal energy, covering and refining the injuries and evil spirits, and forcing the blood clots to the fingertips.

"laugh!"

He put his fingers together like a sword, and a few drops of black blood slowly flowed out from his fingertips. The stagnation in his body suddenly disappeared, and the circulation of his magic power suddenly accelerated.

Three days and nights later, Lu Cheng opened his eyes, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes.

His magic power has been restored to 90%, and the remaining hidden injuries have also been cleansed by the five elements of immortal energy.

Lu Cheng sat alone in the quiet room, with the portrait he brought back from the immortal's mansion floating in his palm. The Taoist in the painting was wearing a long robe with wide sleeves, smiling, and there seemed to be clouds surging behind him, and the Taoist charm was hidden in the brushstrokes.

Lu Cheng stretched out his fingertips and lightly touched the scroll. A wisp of the five elements of immortal energy seeped into the silk. The portrait suddenly glowed with golden light, and the patterns on the Taoist's robe in the painting began to flow like water waves.

"Sure enough, there are some tricks." Lu Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly. Teacher Chi Shenzi and the others might not be able to see this, but those treasures from the Immortal Palace were originally intended to be handed over to him, so a little more here and a little less there naturally didn't matter.

The support that Chi Shenzi and Mie Hongzi received from the Baoguang Chamber of Commerce over the years even far exceeded the treasures left by the immortal palace.

Using the secret technique of Fire Pupil and Golden Eye, Lu Cheng saw that every golden line in the painting was made up of fine runes, interweaving into a miniature formation.

He put his five fingers together, pressed the center of the painting with the power of the Five Elements Divine Palm, and shouted in a low voice:
"open!"

The portrait instantly disintegrated into a sky full of golden light, and a light golden Taoist robe floated down from the void. The robe was embroidered with the sun, moon and stars, and the cuffs had hidden Bagua patterns. As soon as it appeared, the spiritual energy in the quiet room surged.

"The painting hides the robe, and the robe hides the truth... What a wonderful technique. This item is also a favorite item of our ancestors."

Lu Cheng raised his hand to take the Taoist robe and sighed in his heart.

"A seventh-grade superior defense robe, Lady Zhi, even if other benefits are not taken into account, this trip to the Immortal's Forgotten Mansion is worthwhile."
