In Xiao Xuan's eyes, there are thousands of illusions. Sometimes there are fierce ghosts coming, and sometimes there are ferocious people with fierce soldiers. He knows that these are all illusions caused by severe mental consumption. A person who cannot hold on to the illusion may be caused by illusions.
becomes real, then he will sink into illusion forever and become a walking zombie without self-awareness.
"It's almost over. There are only a few last strokes left to complete the carving of this secret pattern. We must stick to it." Xiao Xuan controlled the bloody ink brush behind his back with all his strength, dug his fists into the ground, and grasped the rock into powder.
Just for the last few secret lines, Xiao Xuan felt that it was extremely difficult to carve every point, and the blood pen floating in the air behind his back became extremely heavy, as if it was not a light brush, but a big mountain or a turbulent ocean.
"Hurry, faster."
While Xiao Xuan resisted the illusion in front of him, he used his mental power to observe the situation on his back. Time passed half a stick of incense again, and only the last trace of the secret pattern on his back was about to take shape. Gradually, there was a surge of pressure.
Spread out from the secret pattern.
Shocked by this pressure, the pen trembled slightly, as if he couldn't hold on any longer.
"Ah, finish it for me."
boom
Xiao Xuan squeezed out the last trace of his spiritual power, and the trembling brush seemed to be injected with new power. Finally, he scratched his back with a sneer, and the last line was completed, and the secret pattern was born.
Snapped
At this time, the secret pattern was reborn, a majestic aura came out of it, and the brush finally couldn't bear the pressure and exploded into pieces.
Xiao Xuan could no longer care about so much. His whole body was exhausted and weak, as if he had been fighting with an extremely strong man for three days and three nights, and he fell to the ground.
Huff, huff, Xiao Xuan was lying on the ground panting heavily, with a bit of surprise on his tired face. At the moment when the secret pattern was born, he clearly felt an inexplicable power in his body.
This power does not come from the physical body, but it is no different from ordinary power. It feels like it can be used like an arm.
"The power of the secret pattern, this is the power of the secret pattern. This is an attack secret pattern, so the physical strength increases by one percent out of thin air."
One percent doesn't sound like much, but Xiao Xuan's own strength is too strong. Even one percent is quite terrifying, enough to shock ordinary warriors.
But at this moment, Xiao Xuan suddenly felt that something was wrong. For some reason, the void above his head, which had been clear and clear before, suddenly turned into black clouds, giving him an extremely depressing feeling.
Rumble
What's even more frightening is that there is actually a terrifying flash of thunder in the black clouds, and the overflowing thunder is extremely terrifying, tearing the void into thin cracks.
"What's going on?" Although Xiao Xuan was puzzled, he instinctively felt something was wrong. It seemed that the appearance of the black cloud was related to him. For a moment, he had a lot of thoughts, and he felt as if he had seen this scene somewhere before.
The dark clouds above his head were getting lower and lower, and Xiao Xuan was extremely agitated. An inexplicable sense of crisis lingered in his heart. Finally, his pupils shrank, and he finally thought of why this scene was so familiar.
At this moment, a silver thunderbolt crashed down in the dark clouds, giving Xiao Xuan no chance to dodge. It hit him hard, and the ground was instantly blasted away by the terrifying lightning power, and a line of blue smoke appeared.
The rocks around the pit were scorched black, and vertical and horizontal cracks extended tens of meters along the perimeter of the pit.
Ahem
In the big pit, Xiao Xuan looked embarrassed. He spit out a stream of electric wire from his mouth and hit the ground, creating a small crater in front of him.
"Damn it, I didn't expect that all the stories in the Chronicles of Strange Stories are true."
Before, Xiao Xuan thought that the dark clouds were not something else, but the power of heavenly punishment, also known as heavenly tribulation, that made any monk fear like a tiger before ancient times.
Although in modern times, due to drastic changes in the world, very few monks encountered heavenly tribulations, there are still very detailed records in the Records of Strange Stories and Strange Stories.
It is said that once a cultivator reaches a certain extremely powerful state, his own strength and the rules of heaven and earth are mutually exclusive, then the power of heavenly tribulation will be triggered. The monks who cause heavenly tribulation only have the choice of success or failure.
If you fail, you will be destroyed by ashes; if you succeed, your strength will rise to the next level.
Xiao Xuan's cultivation level is not strong enough to trigger a heavenly catastrophe, but he uses the secret patterns that explain the rhyme of the Tao to fuse his own body to increase his strength, almost forcibly merging the power of the Tao of Heaven. This kind of deception method that borrows power from the sky,
It would be strange if it didn't incur the punishment of heavenly calamity.
Fortunately, Xiao Xuan's physical body was extremely strong, and there was only one catastrophe. Although he was slightly injured, it was not serious.
call
Sighing lightly, Xiao Xuan sat imagelessly in the pit, looking at the dark clouds that gradually dispersed, a trace of awe flashed in his eyes, God cannot be bullied, although he does not know whether there are real gods in the dark, but what he just said
The Heavenly Tribulation has truly been experienced. The terrifying power was replaced by Zhenwu Level 8 and Level 9 warriors who would also be destroyed.
One day later, when Xiao Xuan's condition returned to its peak, what surprised him was that his mental power had improved significantly.
Jiuyou Continent's explanation of spiritual power is extremely vague. It only says that it is a part of the soul. When the spiritual power is strong enough, it can manifest the invisible soul in a tangible state and exist in a very mysterious area of the head.
The tangible soul is extremely powerful and can be used to destroy the soul's secrets to kill enemies invisibly.
"Continue to carve secret patterns. You must not miss this method of quickly improving your strength. No matter what the calamity is, I, Xiao Xuan, have never believed in fate. Of course, my own destiny is controlled by myself. Not even the sky can represent me."
There were two rays of light in Xiao Xuan's eyes, and a shocking arrogance rushed out of Xiao Xuan's body, piercing the sky, almost provoking the sky.
boom
Xiao Xuan slapped the ground with his palm, and stood up with the help of the rebound, then put his hands behind his back and looked up into the clear sky: "God, just watch me, I don't care whether you have a spirit or whether you will bring disaster.
, in short, I have borrowed this power from you, haha."
His momentum subdued, Xiao Xuan looked around and found that the brush that carved the secret pattern had been shattered yesterday, but he smiled slightly, showing he didn't care.
"So what, how can it trouble me?"
Whoosh
With a flash of his body, Xiao Xuan rushed directly to a big tree hundreds of meters away where several people were hugging each other, and grabbed him fiercely.
click
A section of the tree trunk was easily broken. Xiao Xuan held the trunk in his palm and rubbed it gently. Suddenly, sawdust fell from between his fingers, and a wooden stick as large as a writing brush appeared in his hand.
"It's a pity that I don't have a pen, but I can make do with it."
Xiao Xuan returned to the big pit where he had overcome the tribulation yesterday, and once again drew out the blood that was full of energy in his body, and carved another secret pattern.
This was another secret attack pattern, but it was more complicated than the one yesterday. Xiao Xuan spent three hours tracing it. When it was all over, the wooden stick shattered into pieces. Just like yesterday, Xiao Xuan collapsed exhausted.
on the ground.
boom
Almost at the same time, dark clouds appeared in the sky again, and five terrifying thunderbolts struck Xiao Xuan in a row. Not only were there a few more than yesterday, but each one was powerful enough to kill a warrior at the tenth level of Zhenwu.
In the big pit, Xiao Xuan was lying on the ground covered in charred black, with all his clothes turned into ashes. He just looked at the sky naked, his whole body was in great pain, as if his bones had been shattered by the terrible thunder of heavenly tribulation.
It was so terrible. Xiao Xuan didn't expect that just by carving the secret patterns for the second time, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation would actually increase several times. If it continued to increase at this rate, he would probably die from the Heavenly Tribulation if he didn't carve a few secret patterns.
This time, Xiao Xuan was seriously injured, but his body was extremely strong and his self-healing ability was terrifying. Just two days later, Xiao Xuan became alive and kicking again, and it was only expected that his mental power would improve again.
What really surprised Xiao Xuan was that his body was gleaming and crystal clear, as if every inch of his skin was exuding powerful vitality. His body actually improved a lot out of thin air, and it contained huge explosive power.
"It's the reason for the catastrophe."
Xiao Xuan suddenly thought that once the monks from ancient times and before ancient times successfully survived the catastrophe, their strength would be significantly improved.
Obviously, after he experienced the second heavenly tribulation, not only did his physical body become stronger, but his physical strength was also indirectly improved. It felt no less than fusing a secret pattern.
Originally he was still hesitating whether to continue the act of "borrowing strength from heaven", which was almost provoking God, but at this moment Xiao Xuan finally made a decision to continue, and to continue crazily.
In the next year, terrifying thunder catastrophes often appeared over a very inconspicuous mountain in the Ares Mountains. At first, thunder catastrophes occurred once every few days, and in the end they occurred once a month, and then several months.
The reason for the appearance of Thunder is naturally related to Xiao Xuan. Now one year has passed, Xiao Xuan has integrated most of the secret patterns in the entire secret pattern book, and the last seven secret patterns are too complicated. First, he is afraid that his mental power will not be able to
Supporting him to complete it in one go, and because he was afraid of causing a stronger disaster, he chose to give up for the time being.
Just three months ago, Xiao Xuan experienced the biggest crisis since the fusion of secret patterns. The thunder of heavenly tribulation lasted for a stick of incense, with hundreds of silver thunders, including several cyan thunder treasures.
Mixed in it.
Even Xiao Xuan's powerful body, which had been continuously fused with the secret patterns and tempered by the Heavenly Tribulation for several months, was almost shattered in front of the Heavenly Tribulation. Almost no bones in the body were intact, and the entire mountain of cultivation was reduced by the power of thunder.
After walking for tens of meters, there was a scene of destruction everywhere.
Even now, thinking about Xiao Xuan makes me feel extremely frightened and I can't help but tremble all over.
"It's been another year, and my cultivation is still at the sixth level of Zhenwu. Although my understanding of martial arts has improved greatly this year, I still haven't touched the edge of condensing my martial soul."
Sighing softly, Xiao Xuan shook his head. In fact, there is no point in rushing. Some warriors face the seventh level of Zhenwu. Relatively speaking, although his cultivation is not as high as the seventh level of Zhenwu, his physical body is too strong now. I'm afraid
Even if you go up against a level 10 Zhenwu, you may not lose.
