The Fate of Eternal Life

Chapter 7: Nine Wonderful Immortal Elixir of the Heaven-Repairing Scripture
Ning Qing watched Ye Fan leave.

He did not talk at length about the horror of the Crocodile Ancestor, but frankly admitted that this was a life-or-death experience and that if he was not careful he would die in the Great Leiyin Temple.

Ye Fan just nodded with a firm look and walked towards the Great Leiyin Temple, making people feel the spirit of a hero who will never return.

It can be seen that although physique is the cornerstone of Ye Tiandi's enlightenment, this courage and insight makes people believe that even if he fails to embark on the path of cultivation, Ye Fan can still make a career.

"Ning Qingyi, Ye Fan and the others will be okay, right?" Zhang Ziling, who stayed behind, mustered up his courage and hesitantly spoke to his immortal classmate.

Ning Qingyi, who was pacing around the small coffin, replied calmly, "Good fortune or bad fortune is hard to predict, just wait patiently."

Zhang Ziling and Liu Yiyi understood what he said. Before Ye Fan left, he had told them the information revealed by Ning Qingyi, so they were very worried about their classmates who were leaving.

Ning Qingyi didn't worry about so many things. He just looked at the small coffin unwillingly and even tried to push open the coffin lid.

This is because he knew that inside the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin was the small world used by Emperor Huang Tian to repair the fairyland, and there was also a "Repairing the Sky" scripture. If he could comprehend it, he could get infinite benefits.

Unfortunately, although his talent has greatly increased, he is not yet close to being an immortal, so he cannot comprehend it.

Fortunately, he only used it to test his current qualifications, so he did not rush to use the minor destiny technique, but instead looked at the inner wall of the coffin.

The Nine Dragons Coffin is indestructible, not only due to its extraordinary material, but also due to the crucial divine patterns engraved within. The areas where these patterns meet convey a sense of eternity and immortality.

He couldn't help but use the fundamental divine symbol of the "group" secret to engrave all the divine patterns in the coffin. At the same time, he put the Daojie Golden Lamp on his left shoulder into the wheel sea and combined it with a group of divine patterns.

That’s right, he refined the Daojie gold left by Ge Hong into a lamp.

At the same time, he did not use the secret technique of "one weapon to break all laws" recorded in the Taoist scriptures, but instead refined the divine patterns born from the four small realms into four divine patterns.

The reason for this is that throughout the history of The Great Ruler, forging weapons to prove one's path is a crooked way, and the invincibility of the physical body is the true truth.

For example, the most powerful representative of weapons - the imperial weapon, has become a fashionable part of the Emperor Wu Shi and other Heavenly Emperor-level strongmen. Ye Fan, who used the Xuanhuang mother energy to refine the weapon of enlightenment, did not see much effect in the whole work.

Therefore, instead of hoping that weapons will help you defeat the enemy, it is better to use them to strengthen yourself.

Therefore, Ning Qingyi prepared to sacrifice and refine four weapons to assist in his practice. The first one was the Daojie Golden Heart Lamp, a weapon he found on Lingshan Mountain. It used the power of faith as fire, and was said to burn away all seven emotions and six desires, and burn away the old body. It was a weapon that refined both the body and the spirit.

This is undoubtedly very suitable for Ning Qingyi who is starting to practice the Invincible Golden Body.

At this moment, divine patterns gradually merged into the Daojie Golden Heart Lamp. Under Ning Qingyi's control, these divine patterns gradually formed a corner of the ancient bronze coffin. In particular, the starry sky, which sprinkled on the square lamp bowl, gradually became imbued with a mysterious aura.

Oh oh oh!
In the distance, rumbling sounds suddenly came from the reddish-brown earth, and the empty earth began to shake, as if thousands of troops were galloping, or as if raging waves were surging in the sea.

Almost in an instant, all the stars and the moon in the sky disappeared, completely covered by sand and dust.

"This is a sandstorm, a super storm on Mars!"

"What should I do? Ye Fan and the others haven't come back yet."

Zhang Ziling and Liu Yiyi, who were standing outside the coffin, gradually became frightened.

At this moment, Ning Qingyi flashed out from the coffin and looked at the Great Leiyin Temple in the distance with a serious expression.

Just now, the Taoist deity that was secretly possessed in Ye Fan's body made unusual movements, as if it felt a huge threat.

Apparently, the seal of the Great Leiyin Temple had been broken, allowing the Crocodile Ancestor and the Great Sacred Body Divine Mind to see the light of day again. It was unknown whether the seal had been broken because of the Great Leiyin Temple's collapse or because of the passage of time.

Liu Yiyi asked tremblingly: "Ning Qingyi, can Ye Fan and the others come back?"

Ning Qingyi didn't reply immediately. He closed his eyes and felt it for a while before saying, "They'll be back soon. You go in first."

Although Liu Yiyi and Zhang Ziling were still worried, they followed Ning Qingyi's instructions and waited inside the coffin.

As for Ning Qingyi, he was rooted to the ground, and it took him several minutes to see the figures of everyone in the sandstorm with extremely low visibility.

Soon, everyone rushed to the front. Ning Qingyi did not hesitate to use his divine power. With a big handprint and the supreme treasure energy, the road became smooth.

Soon everyone rushed back to the altar, shouting in panic.

"There are monsters, run!"

"The Great Leiyin Temple is a monster's lair!"

"boom!"

Suddenly, the earth shook violently, and then an extremely violent aura suddenly came from the site of the Great Leiyin Temple a thousand meters away, reaching the sky and the underworld, shaking the heaven and earth!

Like a volcanic eruption, rocks flew through the air, and many huge rocks as big as houses fell heavily near the five-colored altar, with a deafening sound.

Two terrifying lantern-like eyes stared at everyone across the sandstorm.

At the same time, outside the light shield, thousands of terrifying creatures resembling crocodiles with black scales gathered and stared at everyone coldly.

"Roar!"

A terrible tremor came again from the ruins of the Great Leiyin Temple more than a thousand meters away. The blood-red eyes like lanterns rose several meters, obviously trying to break free from the constraints of the ruins and rush out of the ground.

The little beasts also seemed to respond and tried to rush in.

At the same time, the five-colored altar shook, and the Tai Chi Bagua diagram appeared in the sky again, which was a sign of opening the ancient starry road.

"Ning Qingyi, I got the stuff." Ye Fan said as he got closer, "Other people also got a lot of magical items."

Ning Qing nodded, then shouted, "The Five-Colored Altar still needs energy to start. Go back to your coffins and wait."

The crowd, still frightened, didn't want to stay any longer and rushed in. Only Ye Fan took a few steps back.

As soon as Ning Qing revived the Luofu Ding, the great sacred artifact shook violently, as if a hundred thousand volcanoes had exploded, magma filled the sky, or as if dozens of suns had shattered and ravaged the universe.

The powerful energy swept across the ten directions, shocking people's hearts and sweeping across the world!
The ferocious creatures that had previously frightened everyone were directly crushed into meat paste, and the area outside the five-colored altar was bloody.

Ye Fan and others were greatly shocked. They felt that the classmate in front of them was like a god or a demon, as if the ancient Buddha was reincarnated.

"boom!"

But at this moment, a tragic aura from the Great Leiyin Temple rose into the sky, the earth completely collapsed, and a huge monster rose into the sky, shaking the sky!

That was the crocodile ancestor, approaching from afar in the darkness and approaching quickly!

The evil spirit surged and shook the sky, dark clouds rolled, and the demonic energy was overwhelming. Although it did not approach the eyes, the momentum of the peerless demon ancestor was awe-inspiring.

Ning Qingyi felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. Even though the Crocodile Ancestor had just escaped from trouble, he was not someone a mere Taoist monk could challenge. Even a fully revived great sacred weapon couldn't stop him!

Fortunately, the blood sacrifice has provided some energy and the altar has been prepared.

The Tai Chi Bagua diagram in the sky was completely formed, the eight hexagram symbols shone at the same time, the five-colored runes filled the starry sky, emitting dazzling light, and the starry sky gate reappeared.

"Go in."

Ning Qingyi brought back Ye Fan and the others who were still staying outside, then looked at the divine objects in their hands, and without hesitation, smashed them with the Luofu Ding.

Several Buddhist artifacts transformed into dazzling light and shot straight into the sky, providing powerful mysterious energy to the Starry Sky Gate.

"Humph!"

In the distant sky, the Crocodile Ancestor stretched out a huge black hand. The fingers alone were seven or eight meters long, shiny black and eerie, scaring many people to death.

It grabbed the huge bronze coffin, but unexpectedly the coffin lid closed. The dragon corpse trembled, and with a bang, it was hit by the black big hand of the Crocodile Ancestor, making it retreat.

Finally, the Nine Dragons pulled the coffin into the gate of the starry sky and traveled away.

Inside the ancient bronze coffin, everyone collapsed to the side after hearing Ning Qingyi's words that they were safe. Ning Qingyi said nothing more, but remained secretly on guard, wary of the possible appearance of the Great Saint Body Divine Thought.

Ye Fan, who was confused, walked over.

"for you."

Ye Fan handed over a Bodhi seed. It was without any light flickering, without any brilliance gathering, and without any mist swirling around it, but the natural patterns connecting it together actually formed a compassionate Buddha!

Along with the Bodhi seeds, there was also a jade box, which was exactly what Ning Qingyi had specifically instructed before. When he opened it, he saw six Bodhi leaves.

"Since you have done it, I will keep my promise and lead you on the path of cultivation." Ning Qingyi took the jade box, but returned the Bodhi seed.

Ye Fan was stunned, but Ning Qingyi's solemn voice came from his heart.

"Ye Fan, you haven't practiced yet, so some common sense is unclear to you. This is the seed left behind after the immortal medicine Bodhi tree died. It is a treasure that can help people realize the truth."

Ye Fan took the Bodhi seed back with some surprise and confusion.

"Legend has it that there were thirty immortality elixirs in ancient times, but over millions or even tens of millions of years of history, only a dozen or so have survived. This is a tremendous gift from the immortals. You must keep it safe and don't let the news leak out."

Ye Fan nodded.

Ning Qing turned to look at everyone and said, "Have a good rest. According to the star map, the next stop should be Beidou. It is the ancient star of life, also known as the Burial Emperor Star, and it is also a paradise for cultivators. Here is food, divide it among yourselves."

He took out some fruits from the Luofu Ding, took six emerald green Bodhi leaves, and sat cross-legged on the small bronze coffin.

Everyone thanked him repeatedly, took the food and went aside, but they had no appetite to eat more. They just stared blankly at the walls of the coffin.

Ye Fan talked to Pang Bo for a few words, then slowly walked around the coffin. Perhaps by chance, he suddenly heard something, and then he found himself walking next to the small bronze coffin.

He subconsciously put his hand on it, and the Bodhi seed in his arms suddenly became hot, and he heard a clearer sound!

At first the sound was very small, but then it became louder and louder, like the sound of the great way, or the mysterious truth.

"The way of heaven is to make up for the excess of damage and make up for the deficiency..."

At the same time, Ning Qingyi, who was sitting on the small bronze coffin, also caught traces of the scripture. He burned six Bodhi leaves without hesitation and listened quietly to the immortal sound.

It was like the chanting of ancient Zen, or the prayers of ancient gods, endless, piercing the eternal sky, and shaking the soul like the sound of a Huangzhong Dalu.

The short scripture of a few hundred words sounded over and over again, clearly turning into ancient characters and floating in Ning Qingyi's sea of ​​​​wheels.

Above the Sea of ​​Bitterness, the shadow of the Gate of Eternal Life suddenly shone brightly, and the two gates slowly opened again. Hundreds of ancient characters from immortal scriptures poured into them, and then disappeared.

Ning Qingyi was shocked.

Last time, the Gate of Eternal Life sensed the invincible golden body reflected by the Bodhi Immortal Medicine. This time, is it sensing the Dharma of Emperor Huang Tian?

He looked at the shadow of the Gate of Eternal Life with some anticipation, hoping to get some reward this time.

Unfortunately, after waiting quietly for a long time, the shadow of the Gate of Eternal Life did not spit out anything, which made him a little disappointed.

Fortunately, the secret method of the scriptures was not forgotten. With just a slight change of mind, hundreds of ancient characters appeared in his mind again.

Ning Qingyi opened his eyes with satisfaction. Coincidentally, Ye Fan also stopped to comprehend the truth at this moment. The two looked at each other and confirmed that the other had heard the ancient scripture.

At this moment, the people observing the surroundings shouted.

"Look, the starry sky pattern is flickering... that thin line is flickering, could it be the ancient starry sky road we are walking on?"

"Okay, get ready, we should be landing soon."

Ning Qingyi reminded them and everyone quickly got ready.

Sure enough, not long after, the huge bronze coffin began to shake violently again, as if the earth was shaking.

Finally, the lid of the bronze coffin shifted from its position during the collision and slid heavily to the side.

Ning Qingyi rushed to the door, subconsciously opening his arms to feel the sky. His first impression was a vibrant spiritual energy. Although Beidou's myriad paths were suppressed, its pure spiritual energy was countless times that of Earth.

Following his footsteps, everyone couldn't help but cheer.

"Great, we have come to a beautiful sacred land."

In the distance are rolling hills covered with lush green trees, while nearby are rocks, ancient trees, vines as thick as buckets, and green grass and wildflowers, full of vitality and vigor.

Pangbo couldn't help but shout, "I finally see the sun again!"

"Bang!"

The huge bronze coffin made a metallic trembling sound. Because of its falling position, the Nine Dragons pulled the coffin slowly down the cliff, and finally accelerated to fall down the straight cliff!
Rumble!
Everyone's faces were filled with shock and fear, obviously thinking about what would happen if they were a step late.

Ye Fan couldn't help but ask: "Ning Qingyi, do you know where this is?"

Ning Qingyi walked towards a pile of rocks and said, "I've read in ancient books that there is a forbidden area on the ancient Beidou star called the Desolate Forbidden Land. It contains nine sacred mountains. If nothing goes wrong, we are here."

"Forbidden area?! Is this some bad place?"

"Just out of the tiger's mouth, into the wolf's den!"

Everyone looked at each other, some in despair, as if to confirm Ning Qingyi's words. In the distant sky, a golden eagle circled, then suddenly swooped down into the mountains and snatched up a giant elephant.

Everyone was almost petrified. Is this a forbidden area? Even an eagle can catch a giant elephant!

"Let's take a break, and then we'll leave here quickly. Ye Fan, come with me."

Ning Qingyi took Ye Fan aside, and in his puzzled eyes, led him to the depths of the hill, talking as they walked.

"Ancient texts record that the ancient forbidden land is cursed with a speeding-up curse. Any cultivator or mortal who enters here will die of old age within moments." Ning Qingyi said casually, "But I don't feel this pressure right now. Clearly, something is wrong here."

Ye Fan was a little confused: "If that's the case, why don't we leave quickly."

"Because there is an opportunity here that can help you."

Ning Qingyi brought him to a one-meter-square spring pond, surrounded by several old vines and a dozen small trees more than half a meter high, bearing red fruits that looked like cherries but were as big as chicken eggs.

"It's really here!"

Ning Qingyi couldn't contain his excitement. He picked all the fruits from the small tree and took out the Luofu Ding to fill it with the divine spring.

Ye Fan asked: "What is this?"

Ning Qingyi immediately replied, "Legend has it that the Lord of the Ancient Forbidden Land once possessed a Nine Wonderful Immortal Medicine, which was later disassembled and divided into nine types. This is the fruit of one of them."

"Immortal Medicine." Ye Fan muttered, "You once said that if I want to practice cultivation, I need the Immortal Medicine to build my foundation. Is that it?"

"The true immortality elixir only matures once every ten thousand years. How can it be compared to the current split Nine Wonders Immortal Elixir? However, if you consume all nine, I think the difference will be not much!"

"Let's go. Today is your first step in cultivation, and it's also the first principle I will teach you."

Ning Qingyi looked at Ye Fan and said firmly and decisively.

"This is a world of great contention. Only one person can attain the supreme position of the Great Emperor. Only by seizing the finest resources and laying the most solid foundation can one embark on the path of invincibility!"

He let out a long roar and carried Ye Fan across nine mountains to pick all the more than a hundred fruits produced by this round of Nine Wonderful Immortal Medicines!
