Chapter 356 Impact Transformation
Lu Changan put away the [Xuanxin Beast Pill] and was about to leave.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, wait a minute!”
The Red Snake True Lord suddenly spoke out, and the smile on his face looked cold and malicious under the red and black snake patterns.
“What do you think, Fellow Taoist Red Snake?”
Lu Changan's head tightened and he said expressionlessly.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, have you ever heard of the mysterious place in the Central Region, [Ancient Youdian Palace].”
The Red Snake True Monarch is a righteous person.
“Ancient Youdian? I’ve heard a little bit about it.”
Lu Changan nodded, thoughtfully.
Having been in the Central Territory of the Great Abyss for decades, he had heard rumors about the Ancient Nether Palace, which were secrets and opportunities belonging to the Nascent Soul level.
It is said that some giants in the middle Nascent Soul stage of the Central Region once obtained opportunities from the Ancient Nether Palace.
“According to the signs, the ancient Youdian Temple, which appears once every few hundred years, will reappear in the restricted area of the Central Region in recent years.”
“Fellow Taoists should be aware of the opportunities and benefits of the Ancient Nether Palace. I am organizing strong players. They will form a team in the Ancient Nether Palace at that time, which will help to obtain opportunities and increase the chance of survival.”
“Xu Daoyou has no power to rely on in the Central Region, but is he interested in joining us and joining forces?”
The Red Snake Lord took the initiative to extend the invitation.
“I accept the kindness of my friend Red Snake. Unfortunately, Xu’s magic power is mediocre and he doesn’t like fighting.”
Lu Changan shook his head and refused bluntly.
Ancient Nether Palace is a Nascent Soul-level mysterious forbidden place in the Central Region. It is extremely dangerous and dangerous. He, a mere alchemy monk, has no interest in participating.
Once the Earth Rock Rat changes form and is protected by the fourth-level demon king, Lu Changan will feel comfortable practicing in the future. The resources for forming babies will be easier to plan, and there is no need to put himself in danger.
The Red Snake Lord showed regret and did not persuade or force him.
On the loess plain, the two of them flew in different directions.
Lu Changan went to the hinterland of the Red Moon Chamber of Commerce.
The Red Snake True Lord’s eyes flashed slightly, and he turned back slowly. After flying a thousand miles away, he waited in a dense forest.
About two hours later.
A white-haired young man wearing an ancient sword at his waist and dressed in cloth came through the air and landed in the dense forest.
“Fellow Taoist Nangong, let me make your trip in vain. The Nascent Soul from the Outer Realm who is alone is very cautious and will not give you a chance to delay. Otherwise, with the current full power of Taoist Nangong...”
The Red Snake True Monarch had a smile on his face and said in a slightly respectful tone.
The young man in white is holding the handle of the knife in his hand. He is dressed in cloth, his eyes are dark, and he has an aura of vicissitudes and darkness.
If a high-level monk from the Southern Territory of the Great Abyss were here, he would be able to recognize the identity of "Demon Sword" Nangong Xiu.
“Xu Xuan? I have never heard of this person in the Southern Territory of Dayuan.”
Nangong Xiu’s face remained calm.
He is the Nascent Soul Demon wanted by the "Tianjian Pavilion" in the Southern Territory. He is dormant in the Central Territory, recuperating.
“That person is not like the evil cultivator from the Ghost Palace camp in the Northern Territory. It seems that most of his followers come from the Eastern Territory or the offshore area.”
True Lord Red Snake said with some regret.
He suspected that Yuanying surnamed Xu also had dragon-like materials or rare animal materials from the coastal area, which would be attractive to the beast-controlling sect.
“A foreign Nascent Soul monk doesn’t need to be extraneous. The Ancient Nether Palace is the focus of our strategy.”
Nangong Xiu’s tone was indifferent and he had little interest in the Yuanying monk named Xu.
“In recent years, have fellow Taoist Nangong gathered together the high-level magic crystals to enter the Ancient Nether Palace?”
Lord Red Snake asked.
“It’s still a little short of that.” Nangong Xiu shook his head and said, “If it’s not enough by then, can Fellow Daoist Red Snake borrow one or two?”
"No problem! As long as fellow Taoist Nangong helps secretly, a little funding is not worth mentioning."
Lord Red Snake said boldly.
“Do you have any idea about the materials for repairing the ‘Heavenly Sword’?”
“It’s difficult. Fellow Daoist Nangong’s Heavenly Sword is the original form of an ancient treasure. In Dayu Country, only the royal family can take it out. In addition, the most likely way to obtain it is from the Ancient You Palace.”
“Even if you get a small amount of auxiliary materials, you still need to ask a fourth-level weapon refiner to repair the Heavenly Sword, which will easily reveal the identity of fellow Taoist Nangong.”
The Red Snake True Monarch appears to be in a difficult position.
Nangong Xiu was, after all, being hunted and wanted by the "Tianjian Pavilion", the number one force in the Southern Territory.
As an evil Nascent Soul, he can only collude in private and cannot show it openly.
Fortunately, after Nangong Xiu fled to the Central Territory, Tianjian Pavilion's wanted status was greatly reduced.
“Forget it, I hope there will be something to gain in the Ancient You Palace.”
Nangong Xiu knew that this was not easy.
True Lord Red Snake is afraid of his strength and will not help him collect materials and repair the Heavenly Sword.
After all, in his heyday, Nangong Xiu had an undefeated record against Yuanying in the mid-term. Later, he was seriously injured during the siege and his magic weapon was damaged, so he fled to the central region.
…
Seven days later.
Lu Changan changed his appearance within the sphere of influence of the Red Moon Chamber of Commerce, and then quietly returned to the Yunxia Sect to replace the stand-in in the main peak cave house.
There was a puppet clone in Qingluan Peak Cave, pretending to be his appearance. During this period, he briefly met Xiao Qingshan, but the latter did not see through it.
Since he was out for a short time, this small gesture did not attract the attention of the Supreme Elder.
Zhenjun Yunlan happened to be out recently and was not inside the mountain gate.
In addition, the formation restrictions set up in the cave will also trigger induction if Nascent Soul Lord Nascent Soul forcibly peeks into them with his spiritual consciousness.
“If the Earth Rock Rat successfully transforms in the future, Red Snake Lord may be associated with it.”
Lu Changan had some considerations in covering up his actions like this.
Shortly after returning to the clan, Lu Changan turned 344 years old.
The fourth possession is still there. As long as there is no fighting and frequent consumption of spiritual consciousness, it can last for several years in a "dormant" state.
Lu Changan asked the Earth Rock Rat to adjust its state and plan to hit the transformation stage within a year.
Including using sect contributions, exchanging items, and replacing resources.
Lu Changan’s actions gave some clues to some Danjie elders in the sect.
In recent years, the Earth Rock Rat has occasionally appeared in the door. The senior officials in the door knew that Master Xiang also had a late third-order rat demon spirit pet.
On this day, Zhenjun Zixia summoned Lu Changan and personally asked about the Earth Rock Rat's impact on the transformation.
Zixia Peak, inside the elegant palace.
"Returning to the Supreme Elder, my spiritual pet will transform in three months. At that time, the sect's fourth-level spiritual veins will be used to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which will have some impact. I hope the true monarch will take care of it."
Lu Changan bowed to the ceremony and looked up at the Jurchen Lord at the head of the hall.
Zhenjun Zixia has a bun in her hair, her eyebrows are trimmed and her eyebrows are trimmed, and her graceful curves are like a dreamlike cloud in a purple skirt. She is lazily leaning on a jade bed and chair.
“Zhenzhen Xiang doesn’t need to be outspoken. You are allowed to allow your spirit pet to use the fourth-level spiritual pulse shock to transform. Benzhenjun has promised you many years ago.”
Zhenjun Zixia's voice was clear and pleasant, she gently raised her skirt sleeves and her manners were elegant, inviting Lu Changan to sit down.
After that, Zhenjun Zixia was concerned about the progress of the Earth Rock Rat's impact on the transformation and the preparation of resources.
Lu Changan naturally concealed the key things.
Except for the [Hua Lei Bead] traded from Yu Yuanjin, the great medicines and spiritual items prepared on the surface are all average and nothing of superior quality.
Zhenjun Zixia frowned slightly. Such preparations were somewhat shabby compared to the Yuanying seeds of the Yuanying sect.
But she knew that it was extremely rare for a monk like Xiang Dalong, who was a casual cultivator from Xiaozhou, to be able to achieve this level of success.
“Is there anything that can cause harm to one’s heart?”
“I haven’t found a suitable spiritual object for the time being. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll just use a stick of third-grade high-quality calming incense.”
Lu Changan responded.
The calming incense is mainly used to assist in cultivation and help resolve distracting thoughts and mental obstacles. However, if it is used to resist the tribulation of inner demons, it can only be said to be better than nothing.
Zhenjun Zixia muttered: "There is a fourth-level low-grade 'Shangqing Dan' in the sect's treasury. Later, if you hold this Zhenjun's warrant, you can consume your contribution and redeem it."
“Thank you, Lord Zhen, for your favor!”
Lu Changan looked overjoyed and immediately bowed gratefully.
Shangqing Dan, in Yunxia Sect, only Nascent Soul seeds and direct core elders are eligible to redeem it.
Zhenjun Zixia's behavior at this moment is considered an exception.
Shangqing Dan is used for the inner demon tribulation. It can be regarded as the right medicine, but it is not as good as the best spiritual things.
Even though the elixir is refined for humans, it is also helpful for the transformation of spiritual beasts, because the latter's mental calamity is weaker.
"Perform human affairs according to destiny. Regardless of success or failure, Xiang Zhenren has a clear conscience."
Before leaving, Zhenjun Zixia comforted her with a word of comfort.
Even though she was promised the Shangqing Pill, she was still not optimistic about the Earth Rock Rat's transformation.
The monster transforms into a human form. Although the final heart tribulation is weaker, the first two levels, especially the thunder tribulation, are more difficult than those of human monks.
The key point is that the bloodline of the rat demon is not of the highest grade, and it does not have the standard of the Infant Transformation Pill, the holy elixir used to advance the transformation.
Little did she know that the Earth Rock Rat's transformation conditions were even better than those of our sect's Master Yun Qing.
…
In the afternoon of the same day, Lu Changan held the True Lord's warrant and went to the sect's forbidden treasure house. He almost exhausted the remaining contribution and exchanged it for Shangqing Dan.
It is said that before the birth of a baby, Master Yunqing prepared the first soul-protecting elixir, the Shangqing elixir.
“This elixir can be reserved for use when I am promoted to Nascent Soul in the future.”
Lu Changan sealed the Shangqing Pill and thought to himself.
Earth Rock Rat has the Xuanxin Beast Pill that is more suitable and more effective, so this Shangqing Pill becomes his backup.
If the Earth Rock Rat is lucky enough to be promoted to Demon King.
everything's ready.
Lu Changan started divination and selected an auspicious day within three months.
The so-called auspicious day, whether you believe it or not, is not a decisive factor.
The Earth Rock Rat's energy and spirit have reached its peak, relaxed, and thoroughly understood the art of transformation, ready to transform into another form to overcome tribulations at any time.
There are corresponding methods for advancing to the Nascent Soul and even transforming into another form.
Fortunately, Lu Changan has the memories of multiple Nascent Soul Lords, so he is not lacking in this aspect.
…
Three months passed by in a flash.
This day is the auspicious day chosen by Lu Changan.
Yunxia Sect Mountain Gate, the most central fourth-level spiritual vein area.
In the underground stone hall built in advance, the Earth Rock Rat has been waiting for many days.
The reason why I chose the underground is because the earth spiritual energy is strong, which can help the great earth demon regain its magic power.
At the same time, some details of the impact shape can be masked.
The Earth Rock Rat's opportunity to transform includes, in addition to the great dragon elixir, the heart of the stone dragon, and the thunder bead, there is also a special Five Elements of Earth.
The five elements soil comes from the vicinity of the budding Xuantian. It was once contaminated by Xuantian dead objects, and now serves as a spiritual object to assist in transformation.
Lu Changan is not sure about the specific effect. Judging from the instinctive reaction of the rock rat, he speculates that it will be somewhat beneficial.
Half a day later.
Above the underground stone hall, winds and clouds were surging, evil spirits were rolling, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered like a tide.
The intense spiritual pressure of the Earthly Demon instantly reached the limit of a third-level demon.
“What a strong demonic aura!”
The alchemy monks in Yunxia Sect all reacted and couldn't help but be moved.
At the initial stage of impacting the transformation, the spiritual pressure emitted by the Earth Rock Rat has already surpassed several existing pill-forming majors of the Yunxia Sect.
Including the master Lu Changan.
“It is worthy of being a fourth-order spiritual vein, almost reaching the fourth-order mid-grade.”
Lu Changan’s previous life to attack Yuanying was far from such a superior environment and conditions.
Yunxia Sect’s spiritual veins are not far away from being nurtured into the fourth-level mid-grade. If the two true monarchs have no objections, Lu Changan would not mind practicing here for a long time.
Zixia Peak dozens of miles away.
“This rat demon has a pretty good background. As a mutated species, its power contains the evil spirit of the earth.”
Zhenjun Zixia stood on the top of the peak, with a long neck and a straight waist. With his lavender eyes like stars, he looked at the distant phenomena of heaven and earth.
Compared to the whole sect’s vigilance when Master Yunqing gave birth to a baby last time, the Earth Rock Rat’s impact transformation is of a lower standard.
Lu Changan was near the ground, sitting cross-legged to protect the law.
“Zhenjun Yunlan didn’t reply? That’s good, there’s one less unstable factor.”
Lu Changan looked at Yunlan Peak on the other side.
In Yunxia Sect, Lu Changan has a good relationship with True Lord Zixia. Not only will the latter not do bad things, but he will also help and protect each other.
After all, she discovered Lu Changan first-hand and gained his trust and appreciation.
This is not necessarily the case with True Lord Yunlan.
Lu Changan had an intuition that this person was always a little wary of himself.
Zhenjun Yunlan has a strong desire for control, and his authority in the sect is much greater than that of Fairy Zixia.
Therefore, if the Earth Rock Rat successfully transforms, his control will be reduced, which may not be what he wants.
Three days later.
The vision of heaven and earth became more and more intense, triggering a spiritual energy tide, and the active and turbulent spiritual energy gradually expanded to hundreds or thousands of miles.
Contrary to the expectations of the outside world, the momentum of the rock rat's impact on the transformation was fierce and steady.
Even, no weaker than Master Yunqing three years ago.
You must know that Zhenren Yunqing is the foundation of the immortal golden elixir.
uffle
The circular vortex-like spiritual energy tide covers a ten-mile radius, and an earth-colored light pillar forms in the center, connecting to the underground stone hall.
Higher above the spiritual energy tide, dark clouds are rolling in, and the prelude to the formation of the calamity cloud is brewing.
“Once the inner elixir of the monster transforms into the great essence elixir, it will cause a thunder disaster..."
Lu Changan looked coldly at the calamity cloud that had not yet formed.
If the transformation of the inner elixir fails, the calamity clouds originating from the movement of the Great Dao will naturally collapse.
At this moment, the prelude to the calamity clouds is gathering and rising, which means that the transformation of the inner alchemy of the Earth Rock Rat is proceeding smoothly.
On the contrary, the brewing of calamity clouds will slowly stop.
…
At the critical moment when the Earth Rock Rat condenses the essence of the elixir.
——
Outside the Yunxia Sect, a Yuanying-level cloud-white light was rapidly approaching with overwhelming power.
Lu Changan became vigilant and discovered that the mana aura coming from him was none other than True Lord Yun Lan.
In the past two years, Zhenjun Yunlan has mostly been planning outside, and he seems to be paying attention to the Ancient You Palace.
After confirming his identity, Lu Changan did not let down his guard. Instead, he sent a message to warn Fairy Zixia.
Actually, from True Lord Yunlan's position, it is unlikely to prevent the Earth Rock Rat from transforming.
If the sect gets a demon king in disguise, the overall benefits will outweigh the disadvantages.
What Lu Changan is worried about is that if the person who comes is an impostor, this situation is also possible in the world of immortality.
After all, there is only one Nascent Soul Lord in charge of the Yunxia Sect at this time.
Due to the impact of the transformation, a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy was extracted, and the sect-protecting formation was not as stable as usual.
Hearing Lu Changan’s message, True Lord Zixia couldn’t help but smile.
Actually, she summoned True Lord Yunlan via summons to ensure nothing went wrong.
Promoting to transform or form an infant requires a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and will also lead to a catastrophe. This is the stage when the sect's formation is relatively weak.
Zhenjun Yunlan didn't take the Earth Rock Rat's transformation too seriously, and focused on the Ancient Nether Palace.
Yunqing’s real qualifications and conditions were so good, but he failed.
A rat demon with even worse qualifications and poorer opportunities has little hope. It is estimated that he will not even be able to succeed at the first level.
Not long after, True Lord Zixia opened the formation and allowed True Lord Yunlan to enter the mountain gate.
“Zi Yan, what are you doing?”
Zhenjun Yunlan noticed that the Taoist companion's spiritual consciousness lingered on his body before opening the formation portal.
This kind of distrustful behavior was very rare and made him feel a little alienated and uncomfortable.
Zhenjun Zixia pursed her lips and smiled, explaining the reason.
“That Zhenzhen Xiang is too cautious and suspicious, so much so that he even doubts Ben Zhenjun?”
Hearing this, True Lord Yun Lan frowned slightly and looked worried.
Lu Changan’s reminder is not wrong.
But as the absolute controller of Yunxia Sect, this kind of questioning treatment will inevitably make him unhappy.
“Senior brother, please don’t be offended. It’s understandable that Xiang Zhenren is very protective of his beloved and avoids any unexpected factors.” Zhenjun Zixia explained.
“Besides, when Yunqing gave birth to a baby, Xiang Zhenren was stopped outside and had no objection.”
Zhenjun Zixia was protective and her words were gentle, but when they fell into the ears of Zhenjun Yunlan, they felt particularly harsh.
They are Taoist couples who have been together for hundreds of years. .
Zhenjun Zixia just protected an outsider, and compared the two of them.
The implication is that Xiang Dalong is broad-minded, and he is a dignified true king with a small belly and chicken intestines.
…
“How far has the impact of transformation reached?”
The haze flashed across Zhenjun Yunlan's eyes and he changed the subject.
He remained calm and had a warm face. He stood side by side with his Taoist companions on the top of Zixia Peak, watching the strange phenomena of the transformed heaven and earth not far away.
“That rat demon, the first step in its transformation is very promising.”
Zhenjun Zixia paid attention to it for a few days and came up with the analysis conclusion.
“How many days will it take for this rat to change form?”
Zhenjun Yunlan noticed the grandeur of the heaven and earth, felt a trace of invisible pressure, and was secretly surprised.
“Three days.” Zhenjun Zixia said without hesitation.
“Only three days?”
Zhenjun Yunlan's eyelids twitched, the progress was so fast!
The words just fell.
The gray calamity clouds in the sky further expanded, solidified and formed, faintly surrounding the blue sky thunder.
“The calamity cloud is taking shape. Could it be that this rat has already...”
Zhenjun Yunlan was unexpected and confused.
Boom!
At the moment when the calamity cloud was formed, the soil above the underground stone palace exploded, and a Nascent Soul-level earth evil wind erupted.
A huge pit of several hundred feet formed on the spot, revealing a huge, howling rat demon.
Poof!
The giant rat demon opened its mouth and spat out a crystal yellow pill that shimmered with ghostly light and was surrounded by powerful soul power. It released four levels of terrifying demonic power, instantly turning the earth buildings around its head into powder.
