Chapter 20 The Only Foundation of Sanctification (for further reading)
Yu Yuan stepped on the white clouds and walked eastward.
Unlike the convenience of taking the Qujing Ark when he came, returning to Penglai Holy Land requires him to fly back on the clouds himself.
Although the speed of his cloud driving is not slow at all, compared with Qujing Ark, it is not even a little bit behind.
It took him more than half a month to cross the strait and arrive at Dongsheng Shenzhou.
Next, he still needs to cross the entire Dongsheng Divine Continent, and then fly for more than a month to reach the Penglai Holy Land.
This is also the reason why Yu Yuan is not happy to leave Penglai.
I felt happy when I went out, but cried when I came home.
It would be perfect if Qujing Ark could be spread all over the wilderness.
Unfortunately, this thing doesn't sound very reliable, and it may be more difficult to actually implement it than it would be for him to cultivate to the quasi-sage realm and force his body to cross the void.
Maybe it will be easier to find the "Moonlight Treasure Box".
Find a treasure similar to the "Moonlight Treasure Box". I have wanted to do this since Yu Yuan confirmed the effect of [Reverse Action].
Not for anything else, just to intercept that glimmer of life!
Because if you are not a saint, you are just an ant after all.
No matter how strong he is, the Great Tribulation of the Gods has reached the later stage, but even the saints have died in person!
Even if we try our best to safely survive this great catastrophe, there will be new catastrophes in the future, and even the gods of Da Luo cannot avoid them!
Only by becoming holy can one be immortal!
Only then can you become the one who makes the moves.
But how easy is it to achieve enlightenment and become a saint?
In this era where the great catastrophe of becoming a god is about to begin, no matter how hard you practice, there is no hope of becoming a saint in the end.
Now under the Zixiao Palace, there are six heavenly saints with merit and virtue.
In Huoyun Palace, there are also three emperors, five emperors and other saints with great human merits.
And in the underworld of the netherworld, the Houtu ancestor shaman transformed into reincarnation and occupied the holy place of merit and virtue.
After searching through the three realms of heaven, earth, and human beings, it seems that there is no more holy status to prove.
However, Yu Yuan knows that there is still that "escaped one" between heaven and earth that can be the foundation of sanctification!
As long as we can find the "escaping one", it is possible to achieve enlightenment and become a saint!
But the problem is where the "escaped one" is, no one in the world knows.
Maybe even those saints have no way of knowing.
Naturally, Yu Yuan didn't know either.
But he knew that if he could go back to ancient times, he might be able to understand the answer.
But time is like a long river that never stops flowing. How easy is it to go upstream?
Yu Yuan read through the sect's classics and carefully read the spiritual treasure information recorded therein, and found that there was only one treasure that could travel through time and space like the "Moonlight Treasure Box" - the Chaos Bell, also known as the Eastern Emperor Bell.
According to legend, it is a treasure of the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court, possessing the power to suppress the "Hongmeng World", reverse the power of "the heavens, time and space", evolve the "mysteries of heaven", and refine the "earth, water, fire and wind".
It is said that the "Starry Formation of Zhoutian" that shattered the prehistoric continent during the Lich War evolved from the Chaos Clock, and it was the Chaos Clock that served as the center of the formation. It was so powerful that it almost destroyed the entire prehistoric world!
But it's a pity that during the Lich War, the Chaos Bell was shattered, and it was silent since then.
Part of the reason why Yu Yuan got in touch with the Qingqiu Nine-tailed Fox Clan was because they were once high-ranking members of the Demon Clan and the uncrowned kings of the Fox Clan in the world. They were extremely well-informed and might be able to find the whereabouts of the Chaos Bell.
It's just that thousands of years have passed and there is still no news.
Although the matter is serious and there is no need to be anxious, the problem is that Wen Zhongdu has become a disciple now, and God Haotian is about to come to pay homage to the saint. This great tribulation of the Gods is about to begin!
Could he still be able to stop this great curtain of conferring gods and let it slow down?
…
Dongsheng Shenzhou is a first-class cultivation treasure land among the three realms. Unlike Nanfangbu Continent, which is occupied by a large number of mortals, this place is vast and sparsely populated, with beautiful people, beautiful souls, and endless good fortune.
After Yu Yuan entered Dongsheng Shenzhou, he did not continue eastward. Instead, he walked south along the coast for several days. Only when a beautiful island came into view did the clouds lower and land in a green bamboo forest on the island.
The bamboo forest is secluded, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with cicadas chirping and birds singing, and the fragrance of flowers overflowing.
If a thatched cottage could be located here, it would definitely look very elegant.
Unfortunately, the surrounding area was empty, not even a human figure.
Yu Yuan took out a sachet embroidered with a nine-tail pattern and shook it gently in the air. A faint fragrance immediately spread out and floated in all directions.
After a while, the breeze blew, the bamboo shadows swayed, and a nine-tailed fox as red as fire appeared in front of Yu Yuan.
After staring at the sachet in Yu Yuan's hand carefully, the fox swayed and turned into a woman who still had charm. She greeted Yu Yuan and said, "The little fairy is Tushan Cunrao. I don't know."
The Immortal is..."
"You nine-tailed fox clan are really suspicious."
Yu Yuan took out a cigarette and lit it impatiently, then looked at Tu Shan Cunrao who was staring at him intently and said, "Do you want one?"
A smile appeared on Tushan Cunrao's face, and he bowed again, "It turns out that it's the young master who is here, but I'm rude."
Among the nine-tailed fox clan, "Master" is a code name that has been mentioned frequently in the past thousand years.
However, few people know the true identity of the "Master".
There are two signs used to confirm the identity of the "gongzi". One is a sachet made by the Lord of Qingqiu using a secret method.
Two marks, one is indispensable.
"Don't mess with these nonsense."
Yu Yuan frowned and said: "In the news you sent before, it was said that people here have to sacrifice boys and girls to the Qi Immortal of the Jie Jie every month?"
"Xiaoxian has already investigated this matter clearly."
Tushan Cunrao said seriously: "This island is called Chongxian. There are hundreds of thousands of people living on the island. They have built a small country called Fuyu. They make a living by weaving nets and fishing, and their lives are quite stable.
Just a few decades ago, for unknown reasons, the sea near Chongxian Island was experiencing constant hurricanes and huge waves, making it impossible for people to go to the sea anymore.
Until a Taoist who claimed to be the Yiqi Immortal of Jiejiao came here and cast a spell to calm the hurricane and calm the big waves.
The people of Fuyu were naturally happy and grateful, but they never thought that the Taoist would say that as long as the people of Fuyu presented ten pairs of boys and girls every full moon night, he would ensure that Fuyu would always have good weather and enjoy peace.
At first, the people of Fuyu were unwilling to sacrifice boys and girls on the first full moon night. Instead, they worshiped with three animals.
As a result, in an instant, strong winds swept across, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the sea near Chongxian Island once again had huge waves. It was not until ten pairs of boys and girls were sacrificed that the storm calmed down.
After that, the people of Fuyu began to sacrifice boys and girls, and this has been going on for more than thirty years."
Yu Yuan narrowed his eyes, "Are there so many human clans and immortal cultivating sects in Dongsheng Divine Continent just for nothing? No one has taken care of them for more than thirty years?"
Tu Shan Cunrao replied: "There were also human Qi practitioners who came here at the beginning, but I heard that the Taoist was the Jiejiao Yiqi Immortal Queen. Most of them left, and the few who remained had their hearts ripped out and eaten by the Taoist.
Afterwards, he went to his sect and ate everyone alive.
After that, no human Qi Refiner will dare to come here again."
"Haha, the title of disciple of a great sect is really useful."
Yu Yuan pondered for a moment and asked: "Today is the night of the full moon...where was the Emperor's Royal Guard that day?"
Tushan Cunrao replied: "The Emperor of Heaven left Daluo Mountain and headed straight for Kunlun. He will pass by this place tomorrow."
Yu Yuan nodded and waved to indicate that he could leave.
"Yes, Xiaoxian is resigning."
Tushan Cunrao saluted respectfully, and his figure slowly disappeared into the air.
