Volume 1: Journey to the West Chapter 23: The Mysterious Nine-Turn Skill of the Five Elements
Zhu Ganglie plundered Shangqingtian Fuluo Mountain and flew to the lower world with a small tripod. While eating the fairy fruit, he was thinking about the future direction. It was still early for the journey to the west, but the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas of Lingshan in the west must have started to make arrangements.
The Yellow Wind Monster, the Pipa Spirit, the Golden-haired White Rat Spirit, the Yellow-browed Old Buddha, the Golden-winged Dapeng Eagle, these guys should have left Lingshan at this moment and settled in Xiniu Hezhou as monsters. The entire history of the journey to the west is a history of conspiracy. Sun Wukong's fate has long been determined. Those Western gods and Buddhas arranged one disaster after another, and then let the monkey protect Tang Seng to solve the disaster, and by the way, kill those monsters who disliked and did not listen to the teachings of Lingshan.
Sun Wukong, who was suppressed under the Five Finger Mountain, was no longer the Great Sage Equaling Heaven. He had lost all his spirit and asked the gods and Buddhas for help at every turn. He probably saw the intention of Tathagata.
The quest for scriptures was just a gimmick, and the demons were also subdued. The real purpose was to spread Buddhism to the Southern Continent, preach the scriptures, completely occupy the East, and exclude Taoism. Therefore, the monkey was a little lazy, and simply followed the Buddha's instructions. If he met a monster raised by the Buddhists, he would let it go. If he met a wild monster willing to convert to Buddhism, he would accept it, and if it was useless, he would kill it on the spot.
The monkey became the guardian of Buddhism and the executioner who cleared the monster forces in Xiniu Hezhou. The golden hoop was stained with the blood of the monsters in Xiniu Hezhou.
But now that Zhu Ganglie has joined, there should be many unexpected variables? Many words
Zhu Ganglie burped, and the fairy fruit picked from Fuluo Mountain was full of spiritual energy, which made him feel hot and swollen all over his body, as if he had inexhaustible strength. Those spiritual energies were running around in his stomach, rushing around, and if they were not refined immediately, the harm would definitely be great. Old Zhu quickly pressed down the clouds and flew down to a mountain in the lower world. He shook his hands and laid down layer after layer of restrictions, preparing to refine this spiritual energy.
At this moment, he possessed the Five Elements Celestial Immortal Art, and he himself had a Zhenmu physique, so he naturally practiced the Zhenmu Celestial Immortal Art first. After the Zhenmu Celestial Immortal Art was cultivated to the realm of Taiyi Sanxian, wood gave birth to fire, and he practiced the Lihuo Celestial Immortal Art accordingly, using Lihuo to drive Gentu, Gentu nourishing Qianjin, Qianjin nourishing Kanshui, Kanshui nourishing Zhenmu, and achieving a big cycle.
By then, although he was still a Taiyi Sanxian, his strength was more than ten times that of Taiyi Sanxian, and his immortal essence was even stronger than that of a Taiyi Jinxian-level master!
If calculated according to the cultivation steps of ordinary people, it would take at least tens of thousands of years of effort to complete such a big cycle, but Old Zhu's small tripod was full of immortal treasures and exotic herbs, planted by saints, and each one was no less than the peaches of the Queen Mother and the ginseng fruit of Zhenyuan Daxian, not to mention that Old Zhu had cleaned up Fuluo Mountain and piled them up like a small mountain.
Zhu Ganglie was not afraid of waste. When his spiritual energy was insufficient, he would use spiritual herbs and fruits instead. He practiced Zhenmu Tianxian Jue like a cow chewing a peony, and successfully reached the level of Taiyi Sanxian in just ten years. After another ten years, he also completed the practice of Lihuo Tianxian Jue. After fifty years, he finally made some progress in Wuxing Tianxian Jue, and only one-fifth of the immortal herbs and fruits in the small cauldron were consumed.
At this moment, his whole body was full of explosive power. With every move, the wind and thunder moved, and the five elements were born. The immortal essence in his body was extremely strong, and the five elements were endless. If he fought with others, it would definitely be suitable for a protracted war.
The monster clan, like the immortals, has a strict level division. Only the monsters at the level of Sanxian can be called monster kings, and the monsters at the level of Daluo Sanxian can be called monster emperors. As for the demon clan great saints, they must be at the level of Taiyi Sanxian.
When the Bull Demon King left Tongtian Sect, he was already a Taiyi Sanxian, and he was proficient in the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts. In addition, he was a saint's mount, so he could swear brotherhood with the demon clan great saints of various continents and become the leader of the seven saints. Except for Sun Wukong, the other six great saints are all demons with great origins. According to the seniority ranking, some of them are so powerful that they can compete with those gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. ….
Zhu Ganglie is not inferior to those ancient great saints at this moment. Except that his magic weapon is a little shabby, his personal magic power is enough to compete with them.
Zhu Ganglie broke the ban, waved his hand, and a white cloud automatically formed under his feet, and slowly flew up. This move really did not carry the slightest human atmosphere, just like a true immortal.
He just flew over the top of the mountain, and suddenly felt a strong energy flowing above his head. He looked up and his face changed. But he saw that the sky was covered with calamity clouds, dark and dense, and the negative energy was extremely active!
"Damn, I've already survived the thunderstorm, how can I survive it again?"
Zhu Ganglie didn't dare to neglect it, and hurriedly practiced the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art, transforming into a ferocious beast with sharp claws, black scales all over his body, and blood-red eyes. He stood on the top of the mountain and roared to the sky!
The beast was gluttonous, devouring the world!
The difference between the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art and the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art and the Seventy-Two Changes is not the number of changes, but the power.
As the name suggests, the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art is divided into nine levels of skills. The first turn is equivalent to the power of the beasts transformed by the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art and the Seventy-Two Changes. The second turn increases the power tenfold, and the third turn increases the power tenfold again. After the ninth turn of the Mysterious Art, the power is used to prove the way and achieve the Hunyuan.
However, so far, no one has ever mastered the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art, because it is an incomplete skill, taken from the magical power of the ancient witch, and modified by the saints for humans. However, even the ancient witches were so powerful that they never proved their Dao with force, let alone humans who are born weak? After the Conferred God War, Erlang Shen Yang Jian was taught the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art, and two thousand years have passed, and he has not yet broken through the second revolution, which shows how difficult this art is.
Even so, the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art is still the top-level mental method. Almost all immortal methods are the separation of the soul and the body, trying to get rid of the constraints of the body, while the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art is the combination of the soul and the body, tightly as one, and the strong body can destroy mountains and split rocks, move mountains and fill the sea.
The beast Taotie transformed by Zhu Ganglie was ferocious and fierce. Standing on the top of the mountain, staring coldly at the calamity cloud, the demonic aura covered the sky and the sun, which was not inferior to the thunder and fire calamity.
What surprised Zhu Ganglie was that the demonic aura completely covered his breath. The calamity cloud did not dissipate, but became thicker and thicker. The whole sky was shrouded in darkness, and it was pitch black. Suddenly, lightning and thunder flashed, and a fire thunder was like a sharp sword that cut through the darkness and struck down!
Zhu Ganglie looked intently, only to see that the lightning was not directed at him, but fell into the valley where he was in seclusion, and he couldn't help but exclaimed. Old Zhu soon realized that it was not him who had survived the calamity, but another monster had reached the realm of the combined soul. Zhu Ganglie looked into the valley, and saw the lightning striking a lush apricot tree in the valley.
The branches of the apricot tree waved gently, and the canopy held up a thin green barrier, with green light shining. A girl in pink stood on the top of the canopy, holding an apricot flower, staring at the robbery cloud nervously.
Zhu Ganglie couldn't help but feel a little curious. After other goblins merged their souls, their souls were in their own form, and even he himself was a little boar, but the soul of this apricot tree demon was actually a human girl, which was really weird.
When the girl saw the thunder falling, she quickly threw the apricot flower in her hand, and saw two or three apricot flowers on the green branches blooming quickly, with buds and stamens, one layer on top of another, and in the blink of an eye, the whole apricot tree was covered, densely packed, with clusters of flowers, very beautiful.
Zhu Ganglie shook his head secretly. It was useless to look good. To deal with thunder disasters and natural tribulations, one must hide. If one cannot transform, one can only fly quickly. Otherwise, even if one is a Daluo Jinxian, one will be blown to pieces by the thunder disaster that lasts for a day and a night, not to mention a scattered immortal who has just merged with the Yuanshen.
Sure enough, the thunder fell and blew the girl's apricot flower magic weapon into a colorful color. The petals flew, leaving only a bare stem. The girl was pale and panicked. She looked up and said timidly, "Daddy, save me!"
"It's useless to call grandpa at this time." Zhu Ganglie was calm and squinted his eyes. He thought, "Looking at your cultivation, it should be a panacea that forcibly improves your skills. It can be seen that your father is also an ignorant fool. But if you call me Brother Zhu and promise me your body..."
The girl looked at the top of the mountain with eager eyes and cried pitifully, "Daddy, help me!"
The gluttonous beast fell down from the top of the mountain. This time he heard and saw clearly that the girl was calling him. Zhu Ganglie rolled and crawled all the way, and fell in front of the apricot tree monster.
Old Zhu got up, and his huge body of 300 feet blocked the apricot tree. The Lihuo Ganglei did not have much killing power on him, but it hurt slightly. The most important thing at the moment was that the blood relationship must be clarified.
"Little girl, who did you call daddy just now?"
The girl raised her head and said in surprise: "Of course it was you, daddy, don't you recognize me?"
