Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 703 In Bing, it is called "Scorching".
Qingchen.

Between the sea and the sky, countless streaks of azure lightning bolts surged ceaselessly, accompanied by wind and rain, covering the entire sea area from Qingchen to Baicang from east to west, spanning tens of thousands of miles, all under the shadow of the lightning.

As a magical artifact, the Qizhe Celestial Altar can be said to have the widest coverage. It can cover most of the Western Sea with just a casual activation, and that is the power of the Purple Mansion activating it.

At the center of the reefs, on the island.

A series of bluish-gray primordial winds emanated from the Azure Wood Mystic Palace, soaring into the heavens with violent howling, possessing the power to subdue all things in heaven and earth, causing the sea to churn and white waves to surge into the sky.

A man dressed in a noble blue robe of wind and thunder stepped out. He had an ethereal appearance, with a golden dot between his brows. A green bamboo sword was slung diagonally at his waist. The sword was blue and gold, and the hilt was crimson. It seemed as if the cry of a phoenix came from it.

The "Reply to the Wind" has been completed.

This is the supernatural power of the Yuanmu technique. It can use the [gentle breeze] to nurture all kinds of trees and repair the physical body. It can also use the [disaster wind] to subdue heaven and earth, uproot trees and break rocks. It can be said to be extremely wondrous.

"Should I cultivate my body [Playing the Jade Flute], then cultivate the realm [White Wood Temple], or the will [Selection Power]?"

"Yuanmu" represents white deer and blue ox, blue wild goose and gray duck, pine, cypress, bamboo and catalpa, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, and the natures of [dispersion], [yielding], [entering], and [subduing]. It is the command of heaven, the decree of the Eastern Emperor, and the ruler of the green spring.

He was already carefully considering his own path to enlightenment, and if he were to attain enlightenment in the future, there would be no more than three paths.

First, naturally, one should seek the true fruit of the primordial wood, using the five primordial wood supernatural powers to inquire about the fruit position. The method of seeking gold in this way is also recorded in the "Qingyuan Yiyang Book".

Secondly, one should seek the position of Yuanmu. Since Yuanmu is protected, this is a simpler path, as recorded in the Qingyuan Yiyang Book.

Third, naturally, one should seek the supreme being of Yuanmu Shaoyang, using the Qiheng method to conceal a unique Shaoyang supernatural power within, which will suddenly emerge when seeking metal, resulting in four Yuan and one Shaoyang, thus seeking the supreme being.

However, the third path can be taken by borrowing this Yuanmu Venerable One to transform into Shaoyang Follower.

At this moment, however, he was pondering a passage about "selection of power" in the "Qingyuan Yiyang Book".

"The righteous theory of Xi Yuan states that the 'Five Arises' confirm the 'Five Correct Principles,' and the 'Five Correct Principles' nourish and transform the 'Five Essences.' In wood, these represent vigor, entry, and dreams; in earth, they represent abundance, cessation, and desolation; in fire, they represent heat, beauty, and use—"

This brief passage mentions the Five Virtues theory of the ancient Xiyuan Dao, but it only mentions the three elements of wood, earth, and fire, which is quite intriguing.

"In the Wood element, Jia represents [Yang Xu Fen], Yuan represents [Xuan Quan Ru], and Ji represents [Huai Nan Meng].

He pondered silently, wondering if, in this light, the other elements could also be found to correspond one-to-one. He was unsure about the Earth element, but he knew something about the Fire element.

The fire that departs has a method called "attached to the sacred beauty," while the true fire has a method called "cooking and using." Therefore, the fire of the fire element should also have a method that represents the supernatural power of "heating."

Was it hidden away, or was it renamed?

Tian Tuo raised his eyebrows slightly, looking north. His eyes seemed to gather a blue light, and he could vaguely see the soaring evil aura and black light that almost enveloped the entire coastline of India.

His mind raced, and suddenly he had a sudden realization.

The term "熯" means dry and hot, so the Bing fire can represent the great drought caused by the ten-day celestial patrol. However, the current Bing fire supernatural power is truly influenced by that bright sun—[Bing Yang Yuan].

If this second son of the Golden Crow attains the "Dry Yang" realm, then this Bing Fire Divine Power should be called "Bing Yang Han," or even the official name of this divine power on the Great Dao of Xi Yuan.

The Golden Crow's arrangement of elements on the Bing Fire was not arbitrary, but rather in accordance with the orthodox principles of the ancient Xiyuan Dao!

Once he suddenly understood this, Tian Tuo felt that many problems had become much simpler. However, a sudden burst of scorching wind and black light appeared around him, along with waves of sweltering heat.

The azure lightning condensed like birds descending from the sky, but they were all killed by the hot wind, and the strange phenomenon was eventually quelled.

A few drops of cold sweat trickled down Tian Tuo's forehead.

His biggest mistake was trying to figure out the Golden Crow so close to India. Even with the protection of the inscriptions, the heavens and earth caused strange phenomena because he had discovered the truth, which ultimately led to the Golden Crow.

"It's best to stay away from the West Sea these days."

Tian Tuo calmed down a bit. Regardless of the situation, he was currently protected by the sect's magical treasures, so there shouldn't be any major problems. However, it would still be best to avoid it for a while.

He was also restless and wanted to travel, or return to his grotto-heaven. He might as well go to Chiyun and use that as an excuse to exchange the sword manual.

Aside from Chiyun, there are two other places he is hesitating about whether to visit: Dongcang and Duobao, both of which are guarded by Golden Core cultivators.

Suddenly, a streak of blue light appeared from the distant sea, quickly descending onto the island and landing in front of him.

The newcomer was a middle-aged man dressed in a blue lightning robe. He had a thin face, carried a dark blue wooden sword inscribed with runes, and his cultivation had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. He was holding a secret letter.

"Master! A message has arrived from within the sect."

Lin Lang bowed respectfully.

By now, he had the utmost respect for this Qingyuan Zhenren. Although the other party acted somewhat strangely, most of Shangxiao's vast overseas territories were established by him.

Looking across the Western Sea today, who doesn't know the illustrious name of this Qingyuan Zhenren, the Daoist of the Upper Heaven?
Tian Tuo received the letter, glanced at it briefly, and his face became more serious.

"Master has broken through and will take over Qingchen from today onwards. I no longer need to worry about this place." He never expected that this Zhouyou Zhenren would break through so quickly, and he had already become that [Qi Zhe Ming], with three supernatural powers already bestowed upon him.

The message from the gate was that the Western Sea was in turmoil and was not a good place. It suggested that Tian Tuo could return to Dongtou for seclusion or choose a place to cultivate on his own, but it was best not to stay in Dali for too long, lest he be selected to go on a northern expedition.

However, this suited him perfectly. The cultivation at the White Wood Temple had some special requirements, requiring the gathering and refining of various types of wood, so one could not stay in one place for too long.

"In the days to come, you and Elder Lin should take good care of this place and wait for Master to come."

With a thought, Tian Tuo stepped into the void and instantly left Qing Chen. Now that he could walk through the void of the Western Sea, it was much more convenient.

He rode the Yuanfeng wind, paused slightly, and headed towards Bai Cang's territory.

Upon entering this sea, one sees the azure sky and the dark waters mingling together, with green mountains standing in the center and islands arrayed on either side, and numerous cultivators dressed in green robes traveling back and forth on the wind.

Tian Tuo stepped out of the void, stood on the clouds, and slightly released his aura.

A streak of crimson light rushed down from the mountaintop, revealing a young man dressed in a dark robe adorned with crimson clouds. He possessed a majestic appearance, with a burning wildness and a sincere spirit emanating from his brow.

"Fellow Daoist Qingyuan, what brings you to my Baicang?"

Liu Xiao heard a slight solemnity in his tone. Given the current chaos and turmoil in Sindhu, he assumed that something serious had happened to warrant the visit of this master.

“My master is about to arrive in Qingchen and take over all affairs. I will no longer be here. Therefore, I would like to speak with you in advance.”

Tian Tuo smiled slightly and explained the reason.

"Senior Zhou You."

Liu Xiaowen felt a little sorry, although that Master Zhouyou was a highly respected figure, and Shangxiao and his sect had many good relations, so there shouldn't be any problems.

But this fellow Daoist Qingyuan is a rare find. He is quite righteous and has formidable skills. He is truly a remarkable person.

"There is another matter I have come here today."

Tian Tuo had already prepared an excuse, and simply said:
"I am building a White Wood Temple, which requires various types of wood. I have heard that there is a famous place for gathering wood on the frontier, located south of Qinghu Lake, near your temple. I wonder if you could arrange it?"

"Is it that... [Panlin]?"

Liu Xiaowen immediately understood what the other party meant. It was the "Panlin" that the "Yellow Ram Desert" had transformed into, which seemed to have received a drop of True Monarch's blood.

Recent news from within the sect has been reported by spies, and he had already written a letter to congratulate his master on being granted a marquis title. He naturally understood that the [Panlin] was now under the name of the Marquis of Tianshe.

“This is feasible. It just so happens that I was also planning to return to the mountain. Why don’t we go together?”

After a brief consideration, Liu Xiaowen concluded that although there was great turmoil in India, it had not yet spread to the sea, and with Xiao Lei's protection, there should be no problem.

His master also urged him to return to the mountain as soon as possible, and to take Liang Yong with him, so that he could travel with this Qingyuan Zhenren.

"Alright, I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist."

Tian Tuo had been waiting for this statement, so he didn't refuse.

Liu Xiaowen nodded slightly and replied:

"Please wait a moment, fellow Daoist, I need to bring along the Dharma protectors of my sect."

"please."

Tian Tuo naturally understood who he was referring to: Liang Yong, who cultivated "Supreme Fire." However, in Tian Tuo's view, Liang Yong had no hope of cultivating to the Purple Palace level, but if he were to be converted to Buddhism, he might have some future prospects.

Liu Xiao landed on the wind and quickly led a scarred man up.

"Greetings to the two esteemed masters."

Liang Yong chuckled. It was an immense honor for two Purple Mansion cultivators to take him back to the mountain. However, when he asked why they were returning, the True Person Bingxiao simply smiled and remained silent, remaining quite mysterious.

Tian Tuo, however, was silently observing the other party, seemingly lost in thought.

The World-Honored One spoke of the three calamities: water, fire, and wind. Water calamity corresponds to greed, like an overflowing river; fire calamity corresponds to anger, like a violent outburst; and wind calamity corresponds to ignorance, like a mind without direction.

Liang Yong's immortal foundation is extremely in line with the principles of Buddhism and Taoism, and he also possesses some destiny. If he could switch to Buddhism and Taoism, he could probably become an invincible being, but it would be impossible for him to condense supernatural powers.

He quickly snapped out of his thoughts. These things were insignificant to him, and even the addition of another Supreme Fire Purple Mansion would not make a difference to the situation.

However, with the position of the top spot currently vacant, is there no company preparing to apply for certification?
India has a great Asura, but he is ultimately an outsider. Are there no immortals among the immortals who have reached the pinnacle of fire, waiting for their time, or perhaps a surviving True Lord of this path is making arrangements?
'If we want to rebuild the Heavenly Pillar, we must make the Bing Fire complete, just as the original Jiao tone should return this Zheng tone to the Bing Fire, and then face the sun again.'
