Chapter 2627: Heretic, Tianxing Jianwan

Life and longevity are governed by the heaven, even if the emperors, generals, ministers, and ministers have power over the whole world and are rich in the world. This life span cannot be extended just by saying it is extended. This blessing meeting is a grand event for both Buddhism and Taoism today. Countless immortals, traveling monks, alchemists, and magicians from all walks of life come to participate in the grand event.

However, true Taoists practice in ancient caves deep in the mountains, where they often spend thousands of years in a single sitting. The rise and fall of countless dynasties among them, how can these people who seek immortality have time to care about it? Nine out of ten people rushing to Chang'an at this moment have little magic power and are just swindlers who just eat and drink.

However, there are also monks with great supernatural powers in the 11.2 Middle School. Among them are Zha Shuangying, the great elder of the Zhushan Sect, Lanli Taoist, a disciple of Emperor Beidou of the Demon Sect, and Su Xinghe of the Tianhe Sword Sect. For some reason, the immortal person who had lost his soul also came to Chang'an City and participated in the Chang'an Ceremony.

Chang'an City is now the largest city in the Seven Phoenix Realm. It has a long history and is majestic. It is the capital of the Tang Dynasty. It has been extremely prosperous with the coming of thousands of countries.

A young man who didn't look that big walked slowly and stopped in front of the gate of Chang'an City. He was dressed in white robes and looked so handsome that the soldiers guarding the gate couldn't help but take a few more glances. They were well-informed. , with amazing eyesight, there are many clan members and young masters from aristocratic families in Chang'an City, but none of them can match the elegance of the white-robed young man in front of him.

The young master also looked up at the majestic Chang'an City. The mottled city walls revealed the breath of time. The wide and heavy city gates were covered with huge door nails, and there was a hint of rust, highlighting this ancient city. With a long history, a steady stream of people poured into the city, and the rich atmosphere of red dust hit their faces.

Su Zhen followed the crowd into Chang'an City. As soon as he entered, he heard noisy and lively shouts, whispers from passers-by, local residents' daily chats, cries of people selling stalls to make a living, and old people sighing. The emotions of life include complaints about the difficulty of life in middle age, and the carefree cheers of children. Life is diverse and different, but none of them can escape the mortal world. It only lasts a hundred years.

Su Zhen's heart is as still as water, always motionless, observing the various conditions of all living beings, the joys and sorrows of the world with a detached attitude. Only by cultivating the soul and attaining immortality can he escape from this furnace of mortal world and look down as a bystander. In this world, don’t be burdened by the worldly complexity.

At that time, the Tang Dynasty was the most prosperous country in the world. It not only had enlightened politics in the country, but also had good prime ministers and famous ministers to manage affairs. There were even more powerful generals who opened up new territories and made many expeditions to the Western Regions, all of which returned with great victories. Their martial arts were at their peak, and all the foreigners were convinced. At the same time, the literary style was open, many great people emerged in the literary world, and the colorful articles far surpassed those of previous generations. The Western Regions and overseas countries all admired the civilization of the Tang Dynasty, which has a long history. Envoys and delegations often came to pay homage, and even princes and princes of various countries also lived in Chang'an for a long time and were reluctant to leave.

Just the atmosphere of Chang'an City, some people have written in poems, saying that the beautiful city and beautiful scenery are not enough, and the sigh of the dancing lady of the Western Regions.

Zhuque Street is the main street of Chang'an. From the Xuanwu Gate in the north of Chang'an City to the front of the palace, it is a straight and open avenue. It is wide enough to accommodate eight carriages running parallelly. On both sides of the Xuanwu Gate, there are East Market and West Square. It is the most lively and prosperous market in Chang'an City, the Tang Dynasty, and even the world. Not to mention the products of the Tang Dynasty, even horses and weapons from the Western Regions, spices from overseas countries, and strange things are all available.

Groups of monks and Taoist strangers came in one after another from the Xuanwu Gate. Some of them were dusty and shabby, but they looked majestic. Sitting still shows that you are superior to others. Today is a good time, so there are quite a few people who have traveled thousands of miles to Chang'an. Even foreign monks from the Western Regions and overseas weirdos also participate in this grand event.

Su Zhen walked calmly and unhurriedly. Through the crowd, you can still see these monks and Taoist strangers. Nine times out of ten, they have no ability. The light in their eyes is scattered and there is no aura on the top of their head. They are obviously scammers without any magic power. . The remaining one-tenth, although stronger than ordinary people, has its limits.

Su Zhen shook his head slightly and sighed. Although the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was noble, Qi practitioners still pursued freedom and longevity and did not value the emperor on earth. Therefore, this land and water conference was destined to be difficult to achieve his wishes.

Su Zhen's eyes moved slightly, and he turned to look at a dark corner of Zhuque Street. Standing at the root of the wall was a beggar in tattered clothes. This beggar had a giant snake around his waist. There seemed to be a red light in his eyes, and his head There was a faint black air rising into the sky. Obviously he is not an upright person, more like a heretical person. Even the big snake around the beggar's waist is red all over, covered with a layer of fire-like evil aura. There is a faint horn bulging on the top door, and its eyes are like lightning. The snake The hesitation in believing and speaking is as fast as lightning, which is obviously not a common thing.

"Heshan Dao? It's not worth mentioning. It's a side sect that only knows a few vicious spells. It doesn't have a great method and can't attain immortality. It's a small sect that doesn't belong to the mainstream!"

Although Heshan Tao is domineering in the Shiwan Mountains of Miao territory, it is not a first-rate sect after all. Although the magic in the sect is evil, it is not a first-rate Taoism. It is just very sinister, so it can only be practiced in casual practices. The Tianhe Sword Sect is one of the nine major Taoist sects, and any true disciple who can practice Qi and become an elixir can sweep them away, so naturally they don't take Su Zhen's heart seriously.

Heshan Dao Grand Elder Yao Kaishan's whole body stiffened, and his back was already soaked. Just now, he seemed to be walking on the edge of life and death, and was noticed by a supreme being. Just one look made his liver and gallbladder tremble, and he almost lost his heart. Broken, he has never encountered such a terrifying existence.

Yao Kaishan felt that the coercive gaze had disappeared, and he no longer dared to stay here for a long time. He tucked his tail between his legs and walked toward his home in a dejected manner, his footsteps messy, full of panic and anxiety.

"You are so cowardly. No wonder you have practiced cultivation for hundreds of years before you can cultivate your cultivation. There is no hope of practicing Qi to become an elixir in this life, and it is difficult to achieve the great road. You will inevitably have to go through reincarnation!"

Su Zhen withdrew his gaze and followed the crowd towards the depths of Chang'an City. Finally, he came to the most prosperous area and chose an elegantly decorated inn to rest. He had some things to deal with here and needed to wait for the Land and Water Conference to end.

A few days passed by. Due to the land and water conference in Chang'an City, many demons and monsters appeared one after another. In Su Zhen's eyes, they were all insignificant little fishes, not worthy of his eyes. However, Chang'an City was not without masters. At least there were some. The master of the extremely spiritual level is hiding in the dark, not knowing what he is planning, hiding himself and staying in seclusion.

Among them, there was a qi machine that Su Zhen was very familiar with. It was the aura of Tianhe Zhengfa. A spiritual light rose into the sky. The qi machine was powerful. Although he had never cultivated Tianhe Zhengfa into a soul, there was still something else mixed in his aura. A powerful qi force, rich in water vapor, should not be underestimated. Su Zhen did not go to join the other party.

The emperor of this dynasty, Li Ying, is a hundred-year-old emperor after all. He can sit firmly in the Dragon Court for decades, so he is not a mediocre person. He was also worried that the strange people he found would all be idiots, so he set up this reed mat competition in the land and water conference to let monks and Taoists from all directions show their abilities, and the winner would be rewarded.

In front of the imperial city, a wooden platform six feet high has been erected, with a width and length of a hundred steps. At this moment, two Taoists are fighting on the platform. The Taoist in the west was wearing a yellow robe, with a high crown on his head, his hands on his hips, and a pine-patterned sword that was spinning around, flying around his body. His opponent was an old Taoist priest with white beard and hair, wearing a Taoist robe. He looked old, his eyes seemed to be open and closed, he held the fly whisk in his hands, and he didn't know what kind of mantra he was reciting.

These two Taoist priests have some materials, and the spiritual light on their bodies is three to five times stronger than ordinary people. Especially the yellow-robed Taoist, who has a spiritual snake-like spiritual energy on his body, and can control the ancient pine pattern sword as if it is flying. , in the secular world, this level of cultivation can already be regarded as a sword immortal by ignorant mortals? In fact, the Taoist priest's ability was limited. The Heshan Dao Yao Kaishan with the snake coiled around his waist that day was many times more powerful than the yellow-robed Taoist priest.

The yellow-robed Taoist priest danced with his sword for a long time, then turned his head slightly to look at the imperial city tower. He was complacent in his heart without a trace of self-knowledge. He was obviously here for the worldly glory and wealth.

"If I work so hard, then the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty should have seen my master's swordsmanship. This old Taoist priest is pretending to be a ghost. I'll beat him first and show his majesty."

The yellow-robed Taoist shouted loudly and blew out a breath of Qi. The ancient pine-patterned sword seemed to flicker and he thrust towards the old Taoist priest. Although there were more than ten steps between the two of them, the yellow-robed Taoist's sword-handling technique was unmatched. With just one breath, the sword light reached the old Taoist priest's head and neck. The yellow-robed Taoist priest was feeling proud, but he didn't want to hurt anyone. He just wanted to scare the old Taoist priest and force him to fall down from the high platform, so that he could show his face in front of everyone.

The old Taoist priest shook his hands, and the silver threads in the whisk in his palm suddenly swelled up and turned into a silk net that filled the sky, covering the pine-patterned ancient sword of the yellow-robed Taoist priest. Then he slowly pointed his finger, separated a wisp of silver thread from the dust, and knocked the yellow-robed Taoist priest off the high platform. This battle was extremely exciting. In the blink of an eye, the situation was reversed, and the yellow-robed Taoist priest was knocked down. On the high platform, he didn't even dare to take the pine pattern sword, he covered his face and ran away.

After the old Taoist's victory, he slapped his head at the Imperial City Tower, and then stood on the high platform, half asleep, as if he didn't take the commotion under the stage seriously at all.

For cultivators, the art of looking at Qi is an introductory lesson. Who is strong or weak, and how high or low one is, one can figure out nine-tenths of them at a glance. If you can't tell the other person's moral behavior, then there is no need to fight with them. That person's moral behavior must be ten times higher than yours.

Although the old Taoist priest had a ball of energy gathered between his chest and abdomen, it was like a pill, spinning around and extremely round. Although it is not as powerful as the yellow-robed Taoist who released all his spiritual energy and enveloped his whole body. But the condensation of true energy is actually several times better than that of the yellow-robed Taoist, and it is about the same as Yao Kaishan, but he has gained a little bit of the true meaning of the Taoist sect.

At this moment, another big man with a beard jumped onto the high platform. Purple thunder and lightning burst out from his hands. He looked unparalleled in power. He raised his hands to thunder, as majestic as a god. This time, the old Taoist priest worked very hard. Not only did he turn the fly whisk into a big silver net, but he also turned a strand of silver thread from the fly whisk into a silver whip, flying like a dragon. Several times he almost turned the whisk into a big silver net. The bearded man jumped off the high platform. This fight was even more exciting than the one just now.

The old Taoist priest couldn't fight the bearded man with more than a stick of incense, so a decree was passed from the top of the imperial city tower, telling the two families to stop fighting and calling them to the palace to entertain them. The two men behaved differently. They were led into the palace by the young eunuch, but they made those in the audience envious. Soon after, another Hu monk stepped onto the high platform with colorful brilliance. This time, no one needed to go up to fight. Another decree came out from the palace and summoned this Hu monk into the palace.

Su Zhen was sitting in the guest room of the inn, but he saw everything that happened in the Land and Water Conference as if he had seen it with his own eyes. He watched from a distance, showing his exquisite eye skills, and he felt a little bit about the fighting in the Water and Land Conference. Disappointed, he shook his head slightly.

In fact, there is no need to determine the winner in the Lu Xi fight. As long as the person who goes up shows his magic power, he will be summoned to the palace. Obviously, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty didn't care who wins or loses. As long as he has the ability, he will invite him. As long as it can extend his life, naturally the more capable people, the better.

In the blink of an eye, thirteen or fourteen people were called into the palace. The little eunuchs were running in and out, which was quite lively. Those who had no ability and only had a few magic tricks to coax ghosts, although they were extremely enthusiastic, were not summoned by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Obviously, the Emperor of the Li family also had knowledgeable experts around him.

Su Zhen moved his eyes and looked towards the top of the imperial city. He saw a five-clawed golden dragon, hovering on the eaves like clouds and mist. The words of the world that the emperor is a real dragon are true. The earthly emperor has the hope of all people. , the will of all living beings is protected by dragon veins, but the five-clawed golden dragon above the imperial city is dying. It seems to have no energy at all, and its old age is fully exposed.

"It seems that the end of the century for the 100-year-old Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is approaching. I am afraid that his wishful thinking will not come true and his extravagant hopes will come true!"

Su Zhen immediately withdrew his gaze and was not interested in what happened in the imperial city. He came here for one person and did not want to have any connection with the secular empire. He just meditated quietly and performed Xuan Gong. There was a faint sound coming from his body. He could hear the vast sound of the rushing river, but he was trapped in the world of this small room. He couldn't hear it at all through the door. It was extremely mysterious and the method was amazing.

The night slowly falls, the jade plate hangs high, it is cool and bright, the silver glow falls, and the vast white area above the ground seems to be covered with a layer of white snowflakes. This light makes people feel a chill, clear and cold, and the mind is quiet.

Suddenly, there was a loud sound of wind and thunder in the sky, and a black rainbow rose from the direction of the palace. It made contact with dozens of rays of light, and then flew away like an arrow towards a dilapidated Taoist temple outside Chang'an City.

Most of the dozens of rays of light of various colors could not catch up with the speed of the black rainbow, which was as fast as thunder. There was only a black fire cloud, like two jade belts, chasing after it.

When the black rainbow flew over the Taoist temple, nine golden pills rose from the ground and hit a black fire cloud pursuing behind.

These nine golden pills look no more than the size of a finger. They are dripping and slippery. They are like amber, like gold but not gold, like jade but not jade. There is a faint talisman on them, which is like smoke flowing inside the golden pills.

These nine golden pills are originally a high-grade magic weapon with extraordinary power. Even ordinary people can send and receive them freely after obtaining the formula. The material itself is a piece of Geng gold essence from the West, which has been refined through Taoist mystical rituals for more than a hundred years. If it is refined for several hundred more years, it may be able to be refined into a magic weapon. Compared with those unpopular evil magic weapons on Heshan Road, I don't know how beneficial they are.

These nine golden pills are full of spiritual energy and are spinning around in the air, as if they are spiritual. It is only a hair away from the legendary magic weapon of self-generated spiritual consciousness. If it is a real magic weapon, self-generated spiritual consciousness, unless it is taught by master and disciple, or you choose your own master, no one else can take it away. Even if the magic power is ten times greater than that of the original owner, it can only be restrained and cannot be used, unless the spiritual consciousness of the magic weapon is dispersed. However, in that case, the magic weapon will fall to the level of a magic weapon and cannot regain its original agility.

The black fire cloud that was chasing seemed not to have expected that there would be someone blocking it from below. These nine golden pills were not of ordinary quality, so they were slightly blocked. However, this black fire cloud seemed to attach great importance to the escaping black rainbow. After a pause, it accelerated again and did not even get entangled with the nine golden pills. The two streaks of lightning were chasing the black rainbow. The messenger of the Nine Golden Pills seemed to have insufficient cultivation and was not proficient in controlling the Golden Pills. He was unable to catch up with the black fire cloud. He hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to deal with it.

"Tianxing Jianwan is finally here!"

Su Zhen stood up from the guest room, and a galaxy spread across the sky. Starlight shone and disappeared in an instant, chasing the three rays of light. It was extremely fast and much faster than the three rays of light.

The dozens of rays of light from behind also chased after them. There were many of them, and their positions were messy when they chased. Nine Golden Pills seemed not to know which ray of light to block, but with just such a hesitation, those rays of light disappeared into the sky.

Suddenly there was a ray of light, as bright as the sun, turning back from the direction it was chasing. I saw lightning and thunder, blasting towards the bottom of the Taoist temple. He was ruthless and unscrupulous. It seemed that it was not the right way. He killed from his heart and did not take into account the innocent lives of the people.

Su Zhen's escape light paused for a moment, and a ray of starlight flew out, turning into a sky net. He aimed it at the vicious thunder and drew it all into it. Then it suddenly changed and turned into a white line, which appeared instantly. In front of the scorching light, a middle-aged man in black robe fell to the ground with a slight twist, blood spilled into the night sky, and his body died.

In the courtyard of the Taoist temple below, there stood a young man with a sallow face. His eyes were clear and bright, showing a clever and cunning look. His eyeballs were spinning, looking up at the sky. He was surrounded by nine golden pills, and there was a faint shadow around him. The essence of true water is entwined, exuding a faint spiritual light. It is extremely pure. The cultivation is also the method of immortality. Although the cultivation is still shallow, it should not be underestimated.

Su Zhen crossed over the Taoist temple, lowered his head and looked down at the young man. He glanced at the nine golden pills surrounding the young man and felt the nine light gold five-color talismans in the other man's body. He frowned slightly and waved his sleeves. The sun and the moon were long, and the sallow-faced boy had no resistance, so he was caught in Su Zhen's sleeves. Starlight shone as he chased forward again.

This time, the Emperor of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty got a rare treasure from an ancient immortal from somewhere, and held this land and water conference. He wanted these practitioners who were greedy for wealth to help him use this treasure to extend his life for a century.
