Chapter 478: Conjectures from the Ancient TimesTwo days later. At dusk, the sea water is sparkling, the sky is filled with fiery clouds, and seabirds are flying high in the sky. The Trinity Secret Land located in the Pacific Ocean opens its doors, waiting for guests to arrive. Soon, a silver-white light came from thousands of miles away and jumped across the passage. When the light faded, two figures were revealed, namely Feixian Yuzhu and Old Man Xianhua. When they first arrived, they were all shocked by the scene before them. The spiritual energy of this world was even more exaggerated than that of the Feixian Secret Realm. Although the quality was inferior, the quantity was far greater. The two were not at the same level at all. "Not a single one is left." “What a courage.” The Feixian Master was surprised. With just a glance, he knew the reason for this holy scene. It was nothing more than Jiang Mo activating the Longevity Ritual to drain the spiritual energy of other secret realms and poured it all into the Trinity Secret Realm. The luxury of this move made him speechless. This was equivalent to giving up the possibility of giving birth to more masters in advance. "This place is even bigger than ours." Xianhua's eyes were filled with admiration, he had never seen such a vibrant secret realm before, it seemed as if life was endless, it could be aptly described as a fairyland on earth.
"Buzz!" The next moment, before the two could talk more, a void portal suddenly appeared in front of them, and it only took a few steps to reach their destination. "Wow!" "Wow!" When they passed through the void portal and saw Jiang Mo in the pavilion, both Feixian Yuzhu and Xianhua were subconsciously stunned when they saw the man with black hair like a waterfall and skin as cold as iron. Even though their appearance was the same, the Jiang Mo in front of them had completely changed the impression they had of him in the past. Just sitting there and quietly examining the two visitors put a lot of pressure on them. Mysterious, strange, cruel, evil, all kinds of feelings follow one after another. The two were secretly shocked. After just half a month of not seeing each other, Xuan Zun's cultivation was not right. It should be said that his entire person had undergone a drastic change from the inside out, and what appeared in front of them now was a genuine demon king. If they could not still sense that familiar soul, they would have thought it was some unknown ancient demon king in disguise. "My dear, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you okay?" Xian Hua stepped closer and asked with a hearty laugh. He was not afraid of Jiang Mo in this state at all. After all, they had already entered the Trinity Secret Realm. This was the opponent's home court and they could do whatever they wanted with just a thought. "Everything is fine, both of you, take a seat." "All the disciples and guardians in the sect are outside. I hope you will forgive me for not welcoming you in person." Jiang Mo motioned for them to sit down. The teapot on the table emitted wisps of white smoke. Soon, he served tea to the two guests and handed them over. "Oh! So they all went out. I was wondering why such a large sect is so deserted, with only you, Xuanzun, here." Xian Hua took the teacup, took a sip, and stared at Jiang Mo's body. The more he looked, the more mysterious it seemed. He couldn't help but bow and ask: "Xuan Zun, please forgive my ignorance and rudeness. Please don't mind. I wonder if you are from the human race or the demon race?" "I have never heard of such a body. At first, I thought you were the innate body of the Tao. Later, I felt that it was not the case. I was still confused, so I couldn't help asking." Seeing the old man's eagerness to learn, Jiang Mo chuckled a few times and explained slowly: "My original body was just an ordinary human body. But after practicing for a long time, my body became more and more powerful along with my cultivation. I also copied some of the blood power of the demon race, and it became what it is now."
"It's really not easy for a mortal body to reach this point." Xian Hua was suddenly filled with admiration. With a mortal body, he has been practicing in the secular world for less than two hundred years, but he has such combat power that can overwhelm all the masters. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a genius. The hardships he has experienced are beyond the imagination of these old guys who are isolated from the world. After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Jiang Mo got straight to the point and looked at Xian Hua: "I wonder if you are ready, Senior?" "During the few days since I said goodbye to you, I was lucky enough to collect two more fragments of the History Book." When these words were spoken, Feixian Yuzhu and Xianhua's pupils trembled, and they almost thought they had heard it wrong. "???" "?" However, the next moment, as Jiang Mo waved his hand, four completely different fragments flew out from the storage pendant and hovered in the air. "Two more pieces. You are quite efficient, my friend." Looking at the four fragments of the history book, Xian Hua's heart was filled with waves. He couldn't help but reassure himself that his original choice was correct. Handing the fragments to Xuan Zun's hands would only make the pieces come together faster. "I have prepared the necessary spells, talismans, and all related materials." "only." At this point, Xian Hua frowned slightly, a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes, and he deduced: "The situation has changed now, and the cause and effect involved is far greater than before. Originally, there were two fragments of the history book, and I couldn't afford the cost of recreating the method to activate them. But I have calculated that Xuanzun, you can handle it, but now there are four pieces, I'm afraid it will be a bit troublesome." "Can you tell me what the so-called price is?" Jiang Mo asked calmly. "Heavenly Punishment is a thunderbolt. Since the History Book of Time is a treasure that carries the will of heaven and earth, you are crossing the line by trying to seize and refine it. “Even if we search for and refine the broken pieces, it is unavoidable, so we will inevitably face an extremely terrifying thunder tribulation.” Xian Hua answered patiently: "Xuan Zun, you were born in the mortal world, and you are not good at refining weapons and alchemy. You may not have a detailed concept of the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation. Let me give you a long and short explanation." “If the magic weapon refined after birth can shake the order of the world, it will have five colors of white, blue, red, black, and purple thunder, and its power will double at each level.” "The same is true for the pills refined after birth, but the grading structure is simpler, with three colors: white, gray, and black." “But for cultivators, it is the most complicated. There are nine colors: blue, white, red, yellow, black, green, vermilion, emerald, and purple. And they don’t appear all at once. They will continue to exist when the heavenly tribulation falls until it ends.” "For example, if you survived the first round of blue thunder, then the second round will be blue thunder and white thunder. Based on this, the third round will be red thunder, plus the sky thunder that appeared in the second round, and so on." "Throughout history, there have been many demons and masters who have suffered from heavenly calamities. Some of them committed too many sins and their karma could not be eliminated, so they were wiped out by heaven. In this case, there is usually no resistance, and it will last for nine rounds until the demon is fundamentally annihilated, and its soul is scattered, with no afterlife." "The other situation is better. For a master who has not committed any sins of killing, his cultivation has broken through a bottleneck, causing the suppression of the heavenly tribulation. The specific number of rounds depends on the individual. Some can withstand several rounds, which is already extremely remarkable. There are also some extremely talented people who can withstand five or six rounds of thunder tribulation." When Xianhua said this, Feixian Yuzhu couldn't help but reveal a proud smile, raised his eyebrows, and said openly: "Uncle Master, you mentioned this. I remember that the founder of our Feixian Sect completed seven rounds at his peak." "Yes, such a brilliant record is the undisputed number one in the human camp in the ancient and modern times." Xian Hua acknowledged the authenticity of this history, and at this time Jiang Mo's cold face showed a little confusion. He thought of a certain innate magic weapon that could control thunder tribulations. What was the relationship between the two?
Before he could ask, the old man seemed to be able to sense his thoughts and added: "In fact, regarding the existence and birth of the heavenly tribulation, our Tianyan ancestor left behind such a statement. It may not be accurate, but it is only for reference, that is, spiritual objects conceal themselves." "Oh?" Jiang Mo listened carefully. "Do you remember our previous conversation? I told you that as far as we know, the three innate magic weapons have no consciousness, but they have certain instincts. When they exist according to the will of heaven and earth, they will also protect and hide themselves." "I initially suspected that the History Book had rewritten history. It was the Book that let us know and confirmed the fact that it was destroyed in the war. It was not until you and I collected these fragments that this possibility was overturned." "In the distant Middle Ages, when our Tianyan Sect had not yet perished, our ancestor had suspected that the person behind the scenes who was manipulating the heavenly calamity was actually the Tianxin Ancient Jade, one of the three innate magic tools." "It is restricting us humans, gradually becoming stronger so that we can get closer to it and control it. That is why the heavenly calamity exists. It is an attack launched by it." Xianhua's expression was solemn and dignified, and his speech speed gradually increased. "At the same time, the reason why the ancestor made such a guess is because he discovered that since ancient times, all the places where heavenly tribulations appeared were outside the secret realm, that is, among the mortals. In other words, the secret realm is a small world with its own laws. It is a part of the big world and carries the true will of heaven." "Based on this fact, it is not difficult for us to infer that if the heavenly calamity comes from God's will, it is impossible for it not to penetrate the secret realm." "More importantly, in the later years of the founder's life, he did several earth-shaking things, trying to get a glimpse of the origin of heaven and earth and explore the world beyond the world, only because he discovered that everything was a lie and a scam." "?" Jiang Mo frowned slightly. He subconsciously felt that this matter might be related to the secret mentioned by the Shenlin Sect. "What he did was a hundred times more excessive than what the other evil demons that were killed by the heavenly calamity did." "But unfortunately, due to some unknown reasons, the old man did not leave us anything in the end. When he was dying, he was only silent. The inside stories we know now were left by the second generation master of Tianyan." Xian Hua was reminiscing about the past, and a look of desolation flashed across his brows. He continued: "Of course, the Grandmaster had been hiding in the secret realm in his later years, and he had arranged for all his disciples to seek refuge in the secret realm where his close friend, Taoist Feixian, was. The only one who stayed with him in the secret realm was the second-generation master who could inherit the Taoist tradition at any time. In the past ten years, the heavenly tribulation did not appear, and the Grandmaster passed away perfectly, proving his conjecture with the afterglow of his life." "And the person who contributed to this conjecture was Taoist Feixian." "Decades after the master passed away, his best friend's cultivation could not improve any further and he had reached the state of perfection. He followed his instructions and stayed in the secret realm for many years until he took the last step and came out. The moment he left the secret realm, the heavenly tribulation appeared immediately." "." Jiang Mo drank his tea and fell into deep thought. With the current strength of his second true body, there was a high probability that he would not be able to escape the heavenly tribulation. "So, my friend, do you understand what I mean?" The smile on Xianhua's lips was somewhat forced and bitter. The risk this time was so great that it was shocking. "clear." Jiang Mo sighed and said, "If everything that the senior said is true, then I, now, will undoubtedly be closely watched by the Tianxin Ancient Jade that controls the thunder tribulation, just because of my cultivation that is enough to disrupt all order in the world and my deeds of searching for fragments of the history books of the years." Hearing the conversation between the two, Feixian Master had a bad feeling in his heart and frowned and said in a deep voice: “Even if Xuanzun hides in the secret realm to delay time, it will be useless. In your current state, you are no match for the evil demon from outer space. You are doomed to be unable to avoid the heavenly tribulation. Even if you have the fragments of the four pieces of the history book, you have no chance of winning against the complete Tianxin Ancient Jade.” "Right, so I never thought of escaping. If it really interferes with me, I might as well touch it." Jiang Mo accepted it calmly, with a fierce gleam of ambition in his eyes. "Don't worry too much, there is still a chance. Since the Tianxin Ancient Jade has no actual controller, it cannot exert its full power. The key is how strong this part of the power is. We can't speculate, and can only infer it through the deeds of our predecessors."
Xian Hua asked bluntly: "Xuan Zun, how do you think your cultivation and strength compared to Ling Chuan before we last parted?" "I know his ability well. He is one of the top three masters in the history of Feixian Sect. He should have 70% to 80% of the ability of Feixian Daojun." As soon as he finished speaking, the Feixian Master beside him suddenly felt a little ashamed: "Uncle Master, you think too highly of me. I think I have 60% of the ability of the Grandmaster. If I have more, I will be weak. I must not cause trouble for Xuan Zun, lest he misjudge the situation." “Six points.” Jiang Mo looked at Feixian Yuzhu, then looked at Xianhua. Under the anxious expectations of the two, he slowly considered: "Before I transformed, the old man was a threat to me, but not to the extent of a mortal enemy. He should be about 70% of my cultivation level." "After the transformation, this body I have now is, conservatively estimated, more than five times stronger than I was back then." "Five times?!" The Feixian Master cried out in a low voice. No wonder he had such a creepy and ominous feeling after arriving. It turned out that there was such a huge gap in strength. "Five times. Now you are much better than Feixian Daojun." Xian Hua felt relieved and smiled faintly: "In the past, if the heavenly tribulation had not dissipated on its own, the ancestor of Feixian might have had the feat of crossing eight rounds of thunder tribulation." "At least when he went through the seven rounds of thunder tribulation, as a bystander and recorder, the second generation Feixian Master saw with his own eyes that he was in excellent condition and only suffered some minor injuries." "By analogy, my friend, it is almost certain that you will pass through eight rounds of thunder tribulation. Only the situation of the ninth round is unknown, so it is difficult to draw a conclusion. I even suspect that the Tianxin Ancient Jade cannot use that extreme power at all." Jiang Mo gently shook the tea in the cup and suddenly smiled: "How does that so-called nine-fold thunder tribulation compare to the world-destroying light in the secret realm?" "Perhaps the Light of Destruction is even stronger. After all, it is the explosion of a part of the heaven and earth. The heavenly tribulation brought down by the Ancient Heavenly Heart Jade without a controller is incomplete after all and cannot be compared with the Light of Destruction." Xianhua reminded carefully. "That's good" "It's worth a try. If it is God's will, I will have no regrets even if I die." "If it is just a magic weapon testing me, with the power to decide my life and death, I don't want to let it do whatever it wants. At least I can give it a try, maybe I can catch its trace." Jiang Mo said in a decisive tone that he had an unshakable belief in his own strength. The Tianxin Ancient Jade was hiding in the dark, staring at him, hunting him. He was also waiting for the rabbit to come to him, and in turn hunting the Tianxin Ancient Jade. It’s really hard to say who will win. (End of this chapter)
