Tianjingfeng
The headmaster and the twelve palaces each occupy one of the nineteen Tianzi-shaped peaks of the Yunxiao Sect. The remaining six peaks are all managed by the General Affairs Hall.
Three of them are used to cultivate spiritual plants, raise spiritual beasts, and support formations. There are also three buildings that are leased to families in need in the Xu Kingdom.
Tianjingfeng is one of them.
Ancestor Yun Jun from the Zhao family in Shuyang County has been practicing here for more than nine years.
The longest time to attack the golden elixir is ten years. This means that this 500-year-old Zifu will definitely make a last ditch effort in the near future.
At this time, in a cave with a simple shape on the top of the mountain, the rich spiritual energy almost turned into water droplets. Master Yunjun was sitting there, with his eyes slightly closed, adjusting his breath and luck.
If there are members of the Zhao family here, they will be surprised to find that their ancestor has a full forehead, a rosy complexion, crystal clear eyes, and full of energy.
The gray hair on his head has all turned black. The wrinkles on his face have been smoothed away, and he looks much younger, almost middle-aged.
This is a half-step golden elixir!
Ancestor Yunjun is only half a step away from the golden elixir!
Of course, this half-step is not easy to take. For many monks, it is like a chasm.
Especially the following level of inner demons, which is full of risks and could lead to death if you are not careful. Because of this, not everyone dares to attack the realm of golden elixir, and many practitioners often stop at half-step of golden elixir.
However, this is definitely not Yunjun’s purpose!
He has been gathering strength for nine years, practicing in this spiritually abundant cave for nine years, consuming countless family resources, and now, it is finally time to attack the inner demon barrier!
He took a deep breath and took out something from his arms, which was the Demon Suppressing Jade that Zhao Beiqing asked someone to send to him.
After stroking it for a while, he carefully placed the piece of jade on his forehead.
The Heart Demon Pass can take as short as a few days or as long as three months. For an old man like Yun Jun, for the sake of caution, it is usually the latter.
As long as he passed the inner demon barrier, with his five hundred years of cultivation experience and nine years of physical and mental training, he believed that he would be 70% sure of successfully condensing the elixir.
Jindan Avenue is just ahead!
Yun Jun intended to guard his Dantian and recite the magic formula silently. The essence, energy and spirit of his whole body became one, and he entered a state where his mind was empty and his mind wandered to the outer world.
In this state, Taoism is natural, leisurely like flying in the blue sky, and very comfortable.
Divine consciousness gradually extends outward from the cave, floating among the green mountains and clear waters.
Tianjing Peak, as its name suggests, has the best scenery among the nineteen peaks.
The green mountains are green and surrounded by clouds. The peaks are rugged and rocky, standing on cliffs. At the foot of the mountains are green roses, thick bamboos, and gurgling water. From time to time, there are a few auspicious cranes flying past with their long calls, hovering in the air, like a fairyland, which makes people admire them.
Yun Jun wandered around this world, feeling peaceful and neither sad nor happy. After passing the inner demon barrier, he felt more confident.
One day, two days...
…
Jingshi Hall
Jingshi Hall is located at the entrance of Tianjing Peak, thirty miles away from the cave where Yun Jun practiced. This distance is exactly the limit of the spiritual consciousness of the Zifu Consummation monks.
The main responsibility of these disciples of the General Affairs Hall in the palace is to serve the families who rent this place.
Therefore, if something happens to Yun Jun, his spiritual consciousness can send a message here and ask them to send him instructions. And if nothing happens, he will not specifically explore this place with his spiritual consciousness.
Most of the time, Yun Jun was in seclusion. Although there was a team of ten guards in the main hall, there were usually only two on duty. Tianjing Peak is located in the hinterland of the sect, so it is safe.
On this day, in the main hall, a disciple in white clothes was reading a book out of boredom.
Sky View Peak Guard is not a bad job, not much better. Although the spiritual stones given by the Zhao family in the past few years were enough to cover most of his salary for a year, that was all he had for the whole year.
Moreover, the errand itself is very boring. Often no one comes to visit it for several days, and all I can do is read and read to pass the time.
As for asking for leave to go out, it is even more common. For example, today, two people were supposed to be on duty, but in fact, another junior sister gave him two winks and disappeared without a trace.
It doesn’t matter, it’s better to be alone! The disciple named Liu Xu was secretly proud, especially when he saw the young man coming in from outside the hall, his smile became even stronger.
This was a disciple in white with a slender figure and regular features. He had a smile on his face and cupped his hands towards Liu Xu and said:
"Senior Brother Liu, morning!"
Liu Xu quickly stood up and returned the greeting. Although this junior brother was slightly inferior to him in cultivation, he had a rich background and was a disciple of Elder Zhu from the General Affairs Hall. Moreover, I heard that Elder Zhu treated him as his own son and even adopted him as his adopted son. He even adopted his surname. This relationship is much closer than that of ordinary disciples.
Therefore, in front of him, Liu Xu not only did not dare to put on the airs of his senior brother, but even flattered him a little, just because this junior brother was always generous with his actions.
Sure enough, after a few words of greeting, Junior Brother Zhu explained his purpose:
"Junior brother wants to go for a walk up the mountain, so I would like to ask you to do it for your convenience."
As he said that, he handed something in his hand, but it was a middle-grade spiritual stone.
"Easy to say, easy to say," Liu Xu smiled happily, but still told him according to the rules:
"You must not disturb the seniors in the mountain, otherwise, you and I will not be able to bear the burden."
"Senior brother, don't worry, little brother, don't worry." Junior Brother Zhu agreed with a smile.
This isn't the first time he's done this. As early as last year, this junior brother Zhu came here often. It was said that he was practicing a technique that required a little spiritual energy from the fourth-level spiritual veins.
Of course this kind of thing is not allowed. But, the spiritual stone provided by him was refreshing and he was also very sensible. Some rare medicinal materials are also planted on this spiritual peak. Although it is protected by formations, necessary inspections must be carried out when coming out. In this regard, Junior Brother Zhu is very cooperative. Every time he opens his storage bag, there is no discomfort.
And the time he chooses is mostly when Liu Xu is on duty alone. In the past six months, Senior Brother Liu has earned thousands of light spirit stones from him, which is much more generous than the Zhao family.
Today is just a repeat of the past.
…
Junior Brother Zhu left the main hall, his sleeves fluttering, and walked leisurely towards the mountain.
Even if monks in the foundation-building stage don't have flying swords to control the air, their walking speed is unmatched by ordinary people.
In just half an hour, he had walked dozens of miles of mountain roads and arrived near a spiritual spring.
The dense water vapor carries a lot of aura, lingering, and the green grass and red flowers are looming.
Junior Brother Zhu took a deep breath with satisfaction. The spiritual energy here was as rich as a third-level spiritual vein.
Tianjing Peak is protected by a formation. Although the spiritual energy is dispersed, it is also imprisoned in this mountain forest and will not be lost elsewhere.
Junior Brother Zhu took out a futon and sat cross-legged in the pavilion next to the spiritual spring. From the looks of it, he was really practicing.
Half an hour later, he opened his eyes, and it seemed that the practice was over.
However, this person was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he took out the wine jar, cup and other items from his storage bag and began to drink by himself.
After finishing the glass, he took out another wine bottle, filled it with wine, and placed it on the stone table in front of him.
"This glass of wine is to commemorate the members of my Zhu family who were killed." He thought silently in his heart, but said loudly:
"This glass of wine is to commemorate the monks of my sect who were killed on the battlefield by the demon clan."
After saying that, the wine glass was thrown into the wind, and the wine inside spilled out.
I don't know what level this spiritual wine is. Its fragrance is extremely mellow. With the mountain wind, it flutters and fills a large mountain forest.
Then, he continued to talk to himself, starting to narrate that the cracks in the demon clan were widening and there were more and more monsters.
The sound is clear and pleasant.
Master Yunjun, whose consciousness was wandering around, maybe he smelled the aroma of wine or heard a voice, and finally focused his attention here.
"The cracks in Moyun keep expanding?" Yun Jun muttered in his heart. The Zhao family had not revealed this news to him in order not to disturb his cultivation.
He was immediately interested.
Some people say that to overcome inner demons, one must abandon all external interference and have no distracting thoughts.
There is some truth in this statement, but it may not be correct.
Since you have to face your inner demons, if even some words from the outside world can disturb your state of mind, then your state of mind is too weak!
What other golden elixir are you attacking? Go home early and retire!
Therefore, Yun Jun not only did not close his spiritual consciousness, but also eavesdropped on it with great interest.
Just listen to the story!
Gu Qi, in fact, the world of immortality also believes that listening to anecdotes and allusions when rushing to the heart demon level will not affect yourself, but will help relax your mind.
This is like when someone is doing a test, they like to play some melodious songs next to them, so that they can calm their mind and have better results.
It's a pity that the story that Junior Brother Zhu told later became more and more serious.
But at this time, Yun Jun couldn't stop.
Junior Brother Zhu: "Three years ago, Xuanfeng Hall was ambushed, and more than a hundred people died, including the two hall masters..."
Yunjun: What! Are all the leaders of the Selection Hall dead? Fortunately, Zhexi had the foresight to transfer out of the Xuanfeng Hall in advance. This is really a blessing for the Zhao family!
Junior Brother Zhu: "No one wants to go to Hanzhou. The sect's elders' council has decided to recall all the monks who have been transferred. I heard that the successor of Xuan Feng Hall is their old master."
Yun Jun: How did you do it! Zhexi returned to Hanzhou again? No wonder he hasn't come to see me in the past few years. This, will he be okay?
Junior Brother Zhu: "Yesterday, bad news came from the sect. It was said that the demons used some special means to send a demon king over. The result..."
Yun Jun's ears stood up, and his consciousness condensed into a ray, all near the spiritual spring.
Junior Brother Zhu: "Our re-elected leader of the Selection Hall spent a fourth-level fire cloud golden light talisman to fight with the devil and die together. No bones are left!"
Yunjun: What! Zhexi is dead? No, this must be false. Zhexi has been in Hanzhou for two hundred years, what kind of storm has it not seen? However, he does have such a talisman as the Fire Cloud Golden Light Talisman!
Junior Brother Zhu: "...even the junior sister who has been with her for more than a hundred years and has never been famous or distinguished has lost all her skills, and her green hair has turned into a head of white hair. How miserable!"
Yun Jun: Is he talking about that girl He Jing? should be! Isn't this news false? This this……
Junior Brother Zhu (spills the wine in his hand on the ground): "Two senior uncles and senior sisters, you generously died in order to safeguard the peace of our human race. Let me toast you two."
…
Yun Jun felt great grief in his heart. At this time, he had no doubt that what this young man said must be true, otherwise he would not have said it so clearly without any trace of fabrication.
Moreover, he was shocked to realize that Zhao Beiqing had indeed been martyred.
A kind of sadness arises from the bottom of my heart.
So what if you practice cultivation? In the end, it is not just a handful of loess, or even a corpse with no bones left.
That's all, that's all, I'd better go back and guard the Zhao family and survive!
Just as he was giving up on himself, a sudden coolness came from his forehead, which made his heart tremble.
I almost fell into the inner demon!
Could it be...
Is this young man deliberately confusing my mind and blocking my path with his words?
He was so angry that he went out to kill the man on the spot, but suddenly he was reminded: when attacking the inner demon barrier, you must not do anything with others, otherwise, you will easily fall into the devil's path!
He suppressed his anger and was about to leave when he heard the young man continue to say:
"I heard that this hall master also has a very talented granddaughter who is also very beautiful. It's a pity that she is attracted by that romantic young master of the Yin family. I'm afraid she won't be able to escape his clutches!"
"If her grandpa were still here, she could still resist a few times, but now, it's difficult!"
If what this person stated earlier is basically true, from here on out, it’s just nonsense.
However, although Yun Jun suspected that this person had bad intentions, his reason told him that what he said before should be the truth.
This made him believe what the other party said next from the beginning.
And this person was talking about the person he cared about most, so he braced himself and listened carefully.
Some people may be wondering, since Yun Jun is suspicious of this person, why should he continue to listen to his nonsense? Why not close your spiritual consciousness and focus on yourself?
If Yun Jun was just practicing, there would be no problem in doing so, but at this moment he was attacking the inner demon barrier.
Inner demons and inner demons. Once you have obsessions and concerns in your heart, you must resolve them in time. Otherwise, you may become depressed and become inner demons.
If Yun Jun didn't listen at the beginning, didn't hear about Zhao Beiqing, and didn't know if anyone had Zhao Yue'er's idea, then of course there would be no problem.
But at this time, since he heard some fragments of words, these concerns have become a lingering mark in his heart.
What he should do at this time is to try to understand the whole story and weigh all the consequences clearly, so that he can re-adjust himself and face all kinds of dangers with a positive and optimistic attitude.
Therefore, he cannot retreat and must continue to listen!
However, Yun Jun's biggest support in attacking the golden elixir was the two younger generations, Zhao Beiqing and Zhao Yue'er.
With their grandfather and grandson here, even if he fails in promotion, even if he dies, the Zhao family can still stand firm!
This is his confidence and the courage to leave everything behind and survive.
But now, one of these two people is dead, and the other seems to be being targeted.
His confidence was deflated.
However, he didn't notice it.
Yun Jun wanted to continue eavesdropping, but saw that the young man had already tidied up and walked down the mountain with a sigh.
He was still muttering: "I, Zhu, have also met this junior sister once. She is truly a beauty! What a pity, what a pity! A lowly slave has taken the lead!"
Which one is this from? Yun Jun was shocked, what kind of slave? Preemptive, what does this mean?
But no one gave him an answer.
Yun Jun scratched his head and scratched his head, wishing he could rush out of the cave and go to the foot of the mountain to find out. However, he was now on the way to the heart demon pass, like an arrow that left the string and could not be recovered.
He forced himself to suppress his emotions, and it was only in the evening that he felt a little calmer.
He continued to attack the inner demon level.
But at this time, all kinds of distracting thoughts, like spring grass after the rain, keep growing in my heart:
"They actually dare to take advantage of Yue'er! That's too much!"
"No, I have to go out immediately and take charge of the overall situation!"
"No, stay calm. I'll break through the golden elixir first. Then who dares to mess with my Zhao family?"
"Hahaha, when I advance to Jindan, I will make sure these people look good!"
"I want to kill that hateful young man, kill that cheap slave who defiled my Yue'er family, kill the young master of Yin Palace Master's family, kill those losers like Jing Shi Palace..."
"Kill, kill, kill——"
Normally, these distracting thoughts would be nothing more than a cluster of flames that would extinguish in an instant.
However, after passing through the Heart Demon Pass, his control was greatly reduced. These flames were burning in his heart and gradually spread.
Yun Jun's eyes were red, as if he had seen the Zhao family being bitten and devoured by powerful men from all directions after he left...
His spiritual veins were taken away, his treasury was robbed, and Zhao Yue'er, whom he cared about most, was snatched away by a lowly slave who behaved in an obscene manner...
No!
Yun Jun roared angrily!
Click, the magic-suppressing jade breaks!
"Ah——" Blood spurted out wildly!
The whole body's breath is disordered.
The spiritual energy is no longer controlled by the body and begins to wander around.
"me……"
Yun Jun was full of regrets. He had persisted for so many years, but in the end, all his previous efforts were wasted because of a few words from a boy!
"I - so - hate..."
The spiritual energy raged, and finally it exploded as if it was ignited by a ray of fire in the heart!
Ancestor of the Zhao family, Master Yunjun—
Death and destruction!
