Chapter 87 I am the Pill
Chapter 87 I am the Pill
As the power of the Bagua Furnace increased, a white mist suddenly flew down from the furnace cover. When it came into contact with the outside world, it instantly became extremely thick and covered the entire Bajing Palace. Only a tall furnace and the figures of several people could be vaguely seen.
The white mist is like clouds and fog, wispy and when you move your nose, you can smell the fragrance, as if you are in a fairyland.
Upon smelling this breath, Jinjiao and Yinjiao also had intoxicated faces, as if they felt the grandeur and wonderful attraction of the omnipresent avenue. It was as if thousands of fairies had descended to earth to dance in a dreamy dance that made all living beings sink into it.
Seeing this, Laozi just waved his sleeves and immediately knocked the two boys aside, allowing them to wake up temporarily. They were immediately surprised and didn't know why they fell into that dream.
In addition to the white gas, black gas also appeared.
But unlike the light and airy white mist, the black mist seemed more lifeless, like the netherworld of hell, with nine evil ghosts emitting countless miserable howls out of thin air.
Jinjiao was curious and gently reached out his hand to touch it. At the moment of contact, the black gas transformed into countless painful scenes in the world, and countless ghosts and gods appeared, making people drowsy and dazed, and millions of evil ghosts roared!
Ah!
Jinjiao let out a cry of surprise, then came to his senses and immediately covered his mouth, fearing that he would be blamed by Laozi.
Fortunately, Laozi didn't pay attention to this place, but kept staring at the Bagua furnace. Even if the two boys stopped pushing the fire bricks, there were still thousands of feet of raging flames rising, which were constantly increasing the power of the Bagua furnace.
The Li Palace became more dazzling, and the other seven Taoist palaces also flickered. The power of wind and thunder of heaven and earth, water, fire and mountain swamps, and the Eight Trigrams began to surge. Guangchengzi, who was in the Eight Trigrams furnace, felt pain all over his body. He was being refined!
Suddenly, the fire doors outside the eight Taoist palaces suddenly closed, and then eight different runes emerged and began to intertwine with each other like water and milk. One, ten, a hundred, a thousand, countless runes appeared, representing clouds, electricity, or wood. Various different forces began to erupt.
But then, these thousands of runes stopped splitting and merged together again, forming sixty-four different hexagrams.
One of the hexagrams is Zhen on top and Kan on the bottom, and Zhen represents thunder and Kan represents water.
The so-called spring thunder startles all things and represents new life, but water always flows downstream, which implies that the outcome of new life may not be good, and one should continue to accumulate strength. This hexagram is called Tun.
In addition to the Tun hexagram, there are various other hexagrams such as the Meng hexagram, the Xu hexagram, the Song hexagram, the Shi hexagram, etc., a total of sixty-four hexagrams, which can almost fully express everything between heaven and earth.
With the appearance of sixty-four hexagrams, it means that the Bagua Furnace is about to exert its full strength, and Guangchengzi's pressure has reached a limit.
Spiritual treasures such as the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, the Yin-Yang Diagram, and the Four-Directional Flags could no longer contain their desire and wanted to jump out immediately to protect Guangchengzi, but he still suppressed the feeling tightly and felt the pressure of impending death.
This feeling made him return to the Taiyi stage, just like the pressure he felt when facing the White Tiger Daluo Jinxian with his own strength. It was a very special feeling.
After just a moment, the Bagua Furnace shook all over, and it suddenly shrank from three meters in size to the size of a fist. The various forces contained within it also shrank thousands of times. However, Guangchengzi still maintained his original size, as if he was inside the Bagua Furnace, but also seemed to have already transcended it.
But as the Bagua Furnace moved, a threat thousands of times more terrifying than before erupted.
suddenly!
The Bagua Furnace suddenly expanded thousands of times, and the power that had shrunk to the extreme also rushed out completely, instantly turning Guangchengzi into ashes, and everything seemed to have come to an end.
At this moment of big and small, it was like blocking the entrance of a volcano that was about to erupt. Doing so would not only fail to stop the eruption, but would make the power that was about to be released even more violent! So when faced with this force, Guangchengzi was instantly beaten to ashes.
After doing all this, the Bagua Furnace slowly returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.
But Jinjiao and Yinjiao were staring at the scene in amazement. They watched Guangchengzi being turned into ashes by the Bagua furnace. They felt a tremor in their hearts, and an unknown fear descended upon them, making them tremble uncontrollably.
Having been with Laozi for many years, they naturally knew how much Yuanshi Tianzun valued Guangchengzi.
Now that Guangchengzi has been refined into ashes by Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun will certainly not turn a blind eye or just let it go. I'm afraid that the entire Kunlun Mountain will be overturned by this Jade Purity God!
Yuanshi Tianzun may not be able to do anything to Laozi, but the two of them will definitely not be able to escape Yuanshi Tianzun's wrath and will have to be buried with Guangchengzi!
At this moment, an invisible pressure emerged out of nowhere, and a middle-aged Taoist with a dignified face, dressed in gorgeous clothes and holding a Ruyi appeared. All the restrictions of the Bajing Palace were nothing to this Taoist.
Seeing this Taoist priest, Jinjiao and Yinjiao wailed in their hearts. Yuanshi Tianzun actually came in person!
But the instigator of all this, Laozi, was not panicked at all. Instead, he laughed and said, "My second brother is here."
Yuanshi Tianzun did not show any anger on his face. Instead, he smiled and said, "Brother, you helped my disciple. How can I, as your teacher, turn a blind eye?"
A helping hand?
Jinjiao and Yinjiao were stunned for a moment, and then as if they had thought of something, they immediately looked in the direction of the Bagua Furnace. Sure enough, in the center where Guangchengzi was beaten to ashes, there was a point of black and white light that was constantly expanding.
It was just that the light expanded too slowly, so the two of them failed to see it and thought that Guangchengzi had turned to ashes.
The two men were extremely patient, and Jinjiao and Yinjiao could only wait where they were. Nine days passed before the black and white light transformed into a young Taoist priest, who was none other than Guangchengzi.
As soon as Guangchengzi appeared, he began to sing:
“No need to worry about the hard work, everything is destined.
The mind is as clear as still water, and can see all the emotions in the world.
Most of the time, things don't go as planned, but there are only a few that you can tell others about.
What is life like? It should be like a flying goose stepping on the snow mud. "
After singing this, Guangchengzi turned around and bowed to Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun, saying: "I thank you two masters for your help, and I also thank you for your enlightenment, otherwise I don't know when I can understand this."
Laozi nodded and smiled again, "You have listened to me explain the way of alchemy for ten thousand years, but you have to make an elixir for me. Where is the elixir I want?"
Guang Chengzi pointed at himself and said with a smile: "Reporting to Master, I am the elixir that you want to refine. I am here. How can I ignore Master's instructions?"
