Chapter 620 If People Are Not Burdened by Their Appearance
Holding the parchment scroll lightly, Xuan Daozi was in a good mood. If he had a choice, he would not want to compete with that group of Daoists for the opportunity to kill the Blood Phoenix.
"I hope the ritual on this parchment scroll is not too dangerous..."
Xuan Daozi glanced at the old man who was leaving the courtyard, and felt satisfied. He then slowly unfolded the parchment scroll, but before he could take a closer look, a pale flame suddenly rose up.
Boom!
Thunder exploded suddenly.
The old man outside the courtyard's pupils shrank, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed Xuan Daozi out. The next moment, accompanied by a loud bang, the entire courtyard was instantly engulfed in flames.
The terrifying gust of air suddenly spread out, shaking the entire isolated peak and causing countless pieces of earth and rocks to splash.
boom!
The moment the pale divine fire shot up into the sky, Li Yuan felt a darkness before his eyes. Then, as he perceived, the light and shadows before his eyes changed and shattered with a loud bang.
"No!"
The moment he was pulled back by the invisible force, Li Yuan heard a loud shout of shock and anger, and the last thing he saw was Xuan Daozi, whose eyes were spitting fire and who was extremely angry.
……
The roar faded, the light and shadow shattered...
It seemed less than a thousandth of a second. Li Yuan was in a trance. When he came back to his senses, he was back on the gray stone platform. There was a pale halo on the wooden listening scroll in front of him.
"It really is burned after reading..."
Li Yuan shuddered. The moment the parchment scroll burned, he had the illusion that he was on fire, and even felt the stinging pain of being burned.
"It's not an illusion!"
Li Yuan suddenly came back to his senses, his heart pounding.
A ball of pale divine fire was hanging in the sky above the wooden talisman in front of him. The light was dim, but more conspicuous than any light on the gray stone platform.
This ball of fire actually chased after us!
"So cruel..."
Li Yuan's eyelids twitched wildly and he felt extremely scared.
The flames that erupted from the parchment scroll were far more dangerous than he had imagined. If everything on the gray stone platform had not returned to stillness, he would have been burned to death on the spot by the flames that followed him like a shadow!
Wow~
Li Yuan was still in shock when a dull and rigid voice came out from the wooden scroll:
[It is said that among all realms, there is a force that is older than the Origin Divine Dynasty. Many years ago, a ritual suspected to be of the ancient force, 'Shi Huang Tian', spread in the Three Yuan Realms, attracting countless outstanding people and geniuses to compete for it...]
[The underworld is extremely dangerous, and even gods cannot escape being invaded and become mad and lose themselves. Gods who lose themselves are called evil gods, and all races will kill them together...]
[Under the will of the disciples of various religions and sects, cultivators from the Three Realms and even many neighboring realms have gone deep into the dark realms to search for and track down the traces of the evil god 'Blood Phoenix'...]
[The Tianli Sect is also among them. One of the Taoists in the sect, Xuan Daozi, rode the Purple Cloud Chariot, entered and exited the Netherworld hundreds of times, and searched for the Blood Phoenix for decades...]
[…Xuan Daozi sent a ‘Guardian’ to a mysterious place…According to legend, the owner of that mysterious place is suspected to be related to those ancient forces…]
……
[The Immortal Sheep, a strange beast born in the underworld, is neither alive nor dead...]
[Those who seek the infinite of heaven and earth while using the limited human power are the Tianli Sect. The most powerful among them have the ability to be in harmony with the will of heaven and explore the infinite universe...]
[…According to legends of the human race, those who achieve enlightenment can live for 500 years, those who achieve the Three Elements can live for a thousand years, and gods can live for ten thousand years. However, even for a God Emperor, there is a limit to their lifespan. Only by relying on incense and escaping into the netherworld can they live forever…
However, this secluded place is extremely dangerous, and if I stay there for too long, I will lose myself...】
[It is said that the secret of immortality is hidden in those ancient caves hidden from the world...]
……
This time, I gained much more from listening to the heavenly music than any other time before!
The words on the wooden tablet flowed like a waterfall. At first, Li Yuan recited them word by word in his mind, but later on, he could only glance over them and memorize them in his heart.
Ancient forces, Shi Huangtian, Holy Land Sect, Daozi Shenzi, Tianli Sect, Xuanyou Sect...
It took Li Yuan a long time to digest so much information.
[…Xuan Daozi was extremely shocked and angry, and fled into the void on the Purple Cloud Chariot. His protectors used their magical powers to search the void in all directions, filled with murderous intent…]
"...The parchment scroll even counted me in the listening state."
Li Yuan looked at the pale ball of fire above the wooden talisman with fear, then shifted his gaze to the bottom of the wooden talisman, which was the biggest gain from this listening session.
It seems to be a ritual of some ancient sect...
[If people are not burdened by their physical form]
"and then?"
The words and sounds on the wooden scroll disappeared. Li Yuan was startled and flipped through it:
"This is gone?!"
Just one sentence!
Li Yuan read it over and over for a long time, and his heart finally settled. Just like the parchment scroll, there was only this one sentence about the ceremony on the wooden scroll.
"If people are not burdened by their form, what form is that? Changing form? Transforming form? Or some other form..."
Li Yuan was speechless, his disgust for the Riddler reached a new level, but there was nothing he could do but calm down and digest what he had gained from listening to the Heavenly Music.
In fact, apart from this one-sentence ceremony, there were some gains from listening to the heavenly music this time, which was quite satisfactory.
After a long while, Li Yuan digested what he had heard and looked at the pale divine fire on the wooden scroll: "It can't be said that there is only one sentence. This fire must be related to the ritual!"
Master Li Dao was very sure.
He also has some understanding of various rituals.
No matter what kind of ritual or sacrifice it is, at its core, it is a way of communicating with a certain existence using divine patterns as a medium and the netherworld as an intermediary. The sacrifice is the price of the communication medium and something that pleases that existence.
In other words, sacrifice must have offerings!
"How do you use this fire? Are you going to burn me as a sacrifice?"
Li Yuan's thoughts diverged for a long time but he had no clue. The excitement of learning about the ancient power's ritual gradually cooled down. He exited the military space and took out the general knowledge ball. After a lot of searching, he found a lot of information related to Xuan Daozi and Tianli Sect.
The Tianli Sect is one of the three holy places in the 'Tianfang Realm'. It reveres the 'Tianli God'. Whether in terms of status or strength, it is slightly better than the five great caves in Tianshiyuan.
Xuan Daozi is one of the nine contemporary Daoists of Tianli Sect, a peerless genius who is expected to compete for the position of the Holy Son. The 'Ying Xuanlong', 'Huan Yitong', 'Feng Wuding', 'Fenghuang'er and others he mentioned are all Daoists of holy places and outstanding people at the level of descendants of major clans.
Some of these Taoists came to kill the evil god Blood Phoenix, while others came to hunt down the geniuses of rival sects.
With a brief search, Li Yuan found a lot of love, hate, and vengeance, with all kinds of ups and downs, which were more exciting than any vernacular novel.
"The beginning of Huang Tian."
[According to the common knowledge of various fields, some search results are not displayed]
"..."
After struggling for a while, Li Yuan gave up reluctantly. As for the arduous search for "If people were not burdened by their physical bodies", he had never thought about it at all.
He was always wary of the general knowledge ball, and he would never reveal anything that was really important.
“This fire…”
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and could sense the pale divine fire on the gray stone platform. Just the slightest sensation made him feel a little nervous.
He had a strong premonition that once the fire was released from the gray stone platform, it would instantly burn him.
"This fire must be the key to some ritual, but it's too dangerous."
Li Yuan had no intention of bringing trouble upon himself, and his mind suddenly shifted to the bronze coffin that lay silent not far from the wooden tablet.
"Why don't you go ask that noble man?"
After thinking about this for a while, Li Yuan gave up. Through the last communication, he felt that his judgment of this person was somewhat inaccurate, and he didn't want to disturb him too much for the time being.
If you want to communicate with this kind of chosen one, you can't do it without bargaining chips. At the very least, you have to open up the first level of the Secret Realm of the Divine Burial Coffin first, right?
"A magic ring master at the level of the Son of God of Origin..."
Thinking back to the scene of the last disastrous defeat, Master Li Dao felt the difficulty deeply. It was the first time that he had such a hard time since he was granted the ordnance by heaven.
Bafang Temple, God Burial Coffin...
Every road is impossible to push forward.
“Is this the bottleneck?”
His mind was so distracted that he felt a little sleepy. Li Yuan put away the general knowledge ball, stood up, took a stance, and slowly pushed up the dragon and tiger pile.
The irritable mood calmed down instantly.
……
……
The sky brightened and the sun rose in the east.
In front of the mountain gate of Longhu Temple, many errand disciples were clearing snow and ice, and from time to time they glanced at Xin Wenhua, who had a wooden face under the archway.
"coming."
At a certain moment, Xin Wenhua's heart moved, and when he looked up, he saw a young man in a red robe striding towards him.
"Meet Master Fang."
Xin Wenhua bowed in greeting.
"Ok?"
Fang Sanyun's eyes were red, and his voice was cold and hard: "Dragon and Tiger Temple sent you to welcome me?"
"..."
Xin Wenhua secretly groaned, but did not dare to show it on his face. He just became more respectful: "To Taoist Master Fang, my Taoist master went down the mountain a few days ago and has not returned yet. It's really not that he treats me badly..."
"You haven't returned yet? I'm afraid you don't dare to see me?"
Fang Sanyun sneered, not wanting to embarrass the young man, and flicked his sleeves: "Where is Li Yuan? Bring him to see me!"
"Replying to Senior, Junior Brother Li is preparing a banquet in the mountains and is waiting for you to come."
Xin Wenhua lowered his head slightly.
"Ha~"
Fang Sanyun twitched the corner of his mouth, flicked his sleeves and left. His feet were so fast that even without activating his spiritual power, he was still no match for Xin Wenhua. The latter only felt a flash before his eyes, and the red robe was gone.
call!
The howling wind blew open the gate.
Fang Sanyun strode into the courtyard and took a quick glance. He saw the boy surnamed Li busy in the kitchen. Smoke was rising from the stove and there was a faint aroma of wine and meat.
"Senior Fang."
Hearing the sound, Li Yuan came out carrying a spirit fish and invited him into the house with a smile.
"you……"
Looking at Li Yuan's smiling face, Fang Sanyun, who wanted to make trouble, trembled.
"You came too hastily, and I didn't have time to prepare many things. I hope you will forgive me for the poor hospitality."
Li Yuan was very polite and humble.
Fang Sanyun moved his lips, but was dragged into the house by him.
There was a large table in the main hall, filled with all kinds of delicacies. There were more than twenty or thirty kinds of spiritual fish and spiritual beasts, and many jars of top-quality spiritual wine.
"Don't do this!"
Fang Sanyun's eyelids twitched, and he ignored Li Yuan's attempt to get along, and took out a small red seal.
"Here is the Heavenly Fire Samadhi Seal. How are you going to take it?"
