Chapter 147: Preparing to Survive the Tribulation
It is rumored that there are gods on the plateau and on the top of the snow-capped mountains.
At noon that day, the sun was high in the sky, and suddenly a sound of wind and thunder was heard above the endless snow-capped mountains. A huge blue bird flew by, and snowflakes suddenly rose up all over the sky.
With a whoosh, Chen Jiu stopped in front of the highest snow mountain, drew out his Kaitian sword, and slashed with it. Then with a thought, the snow-capped mountain peak disappeared, and a smooth platform with a radius of dozens of feet appeared on the top of the mountain.
He retracted his golden wings, landed on the platform, glanced around, and then his mind moved again. Suddenly, a group of people and a group of huge monsters appeared on the platform.
Zhang Wanxia couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, what is this place? It's so beautiful!"
Luo Li couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why is it so cold here? I feel like I'm having trouble breathing."
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "This should be the legendary Kunlun Peak."
Xu Yanran couldn't help but ask curiously, "Aren't there gods on the top of Kunlun Mountain in the legend?"
Chen Jiu still smiled slightly and said: "Aren't we gods?"
After saying that, he drew out Kai Tian Lai again, turned it into a small knife, and skillfully skinned and cut apart a black bull several meters tall, a giant snake over ten meters long, a sheep monster several meters tall, and a tiger more than ten meters tall.
This is what they harvested yesterday and this morning.
Ever since Chen Jiu got the magical artifact Golden Wings, he seems to have gone crazy. He even went to the imperial court to look up the memorials submitted by the four regions of the Ming Dynasty, and found out the four most harmful monsters, saying that he wanted to eliminate them for the people.
Then, he took everyone to the southern barbarian land to hunt a wild bull, went to the East China Sea to kill a snake monster that was about to transform into a dragon, went to the far north to kill a tiger that was about to become a demon fairy, and went to the far west to kill a sheep monster that was causing trouble there.
These monsters had already reached the peak level of demon kings, and were extremely ferocious. Even ordinary earthly immortals could not deal with them, and the Ming Dynasty court was too lazy to care. As a result, they naturally got the upper hand.
He worked for a while and finished dissecting the four monsters. Then he discussed with the old fox fairy, "Old Ancestor, it seems okay to stew the tiger and the giant snake together. I'm afraid the taste will be spoiled if the wild bull and the sheep are stewed in. How about we roast the beef and mutton?"
The old fox fairy looked at the pile of meat and smiled slightly, "You are right. Beef and mutton cannot be stewed together. The problem is, there is so much meat that even if Yong'er and Meng'er were here, we wouldn't be able to finish it."
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "It's okay. Let's put the rest outside to freeze. When we finish eating, we can take it back and give it to Luo Li's father and Patriarch Hongyun to try."
The old fox fairy nodded slightly, and then took Jiaona, Daqing and Xiaoqing to get busy. She prepared all kinds of seasonings, spring water, firewood, and even tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans. The problem was that the fire could not be burned well, and the big pot of soup could not be boiled at all.
This is because the air here is too thin, breathing is a little difficult, and the fire naturally cannot burn well.
Upon seeing this, Chen Jiu used his spiritual sense to wrap up a huge ball of wood spiritual energy in the immortal palace and covered the top of the mountain. The fire immediately became stronger.
At this time, it was not so cold on the top of the mountain, breathing became smoother, and everyone happily followed the old fox fairy to get busy.
When Chen Jiu saw this scene, he actually sighed slightly, looked up at the sky, stood there, and remained silent for a long time.
Zhang Qian is a ghost fairy and doesn't eat these things. She didn't go up to join in the fun and her mind was always on Chen Jiu.
When she saw Chen Jiu suddenly standing there without saying anything, she couldn't help but walk over and ask, "Ah Jiu, what's wrong with you? You seem to be a little strange these past two days. You didn't even practice, but took us around to play."
Chen Jiu sighed slightly, and then sent a voice message through his consciousness: "I am ready to overcome the tribulation. Although I am a little confident, I cannot guarantee that I will succeed."
Zhang Qian was shocked when she heard this and said, "Ajiu, don't be impatient. You are still young and there is still plenty of time."
Chen Jiu looked up at the sky again, and said in telepathic voice: "I always feel that the imperial court's efforts to lure me to conquer Japan are not that simple. Perhaps, when I face those true gods in Japan, there will be true gods who will wait for an opportunity to hide in the dark and take my life."
Zhang Qian still advised: "Then why don't we just not go to Japan? Don't be so anxious!"
Chen Jiu shook his head slightly and said with his spiritual consciousness: "No, the Imperial Court should have discussed it with the higher-ups. If I don't go, everyone will have a hard time. Now our strength is simply not enough to fight against the Imperial Court, the Heavenly Court, and even the Northern Underworld. Only if I become a god, I can hope to defeat them."
Zhang Qian had no choice but to use her spiritual sense to send a message: "Then when are you going to survive the tribulation?"
Chen Jiu said decisively: "Just wait for Lao Ding to refine the Ruyi Jingu Bang."
Zhang Qian was surprised and asked, "Aren't you waiting for the Qi training to reach the realm of the Immortal Palace?"
Chen Jiu shook his head slightly, and said with his spiritual consciousness: "That is not very helpful for overcoming the tribulation. Overcoming the tribulation requires bearing it. Practicing the way of Qi training to the realm of the Immortal Palace can only increase the attack power. I now have the Yindu Immortal Palace. The wood spirit energy of this Immortal Palace can nourish all things. It is more useful when overcoming the tribulation than the Immortal Palace cultivated by the way of Qi training."
Zhang Qian shook her head helplessly and said, "I still don't understand why you are so anxious."
Chen Jiu looked up at the sky again, and then transmitted his divine consciousness: "It is rumored that the heavenly tribulation of becoming a god is the gods in heaven using the divine artifacts of the heavenly way to prevent people from becoming gods. If this is true, I will take them by surprise and suddenly overcome the tribulation when no one expects it. There should be a greater hope of success."
Well, what he said does make sense. Chen Jiu chose to suddenly undergo the tribulation at this time, and the gods in heaven were probably caught off guard.
Zhang Qian stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Jiaona also found something wrong. She stood up and walked over and asked curiously, "What are you talking about? The barbecue is cooked. Jiu, don't you want to try it?"
Chen Jiu quickly raised his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, eat meat, eat meat, let me taste Ah Jiao's cooking skills."
He seemed to have returned to normal, chatting and laughing with everyone while eating meat and drinking soup. He also clinked glasses with his two . Everyone was having a great time eating, and it was not until the sun set that they packed up their food with some reluctance and prepared to go back.
Zhang Wanxia looked at the magnificent snow scene around her and said reluctantly, "Ajiu, can we come here to have a barbecue next time when we are free?"
Well, if I can successfully overcome the tribulation, then I can naturally come whenever I want.
Chen Jiu sighed secretly and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, let's go back first. I guess the ancestors will be worried."
After saying this, he gathered everyone into his immortal palace, then spread his golden wings, soared into the sky, and flew towards Jiuling Mountain at full speed.
After he returned to Jiuling Mountain, he sent everyone out of the Immortal Palace and, contrary to his usual behavior, stopped practicing and sat cross-legged in the Earth Fire Cave, staring at the Primordial Divine Cauldron in a daze.
The old fox fairy couldn't help but ask curiously, "Ajiu, what's wrong with you? Why are you in a daze?"
Chen Jiu pretended to be helpless and said, "There is no other way. I have used up all my Zhenyuan Pills, Peiyuan Pills, and Haoyuan Pills. I have also cultivated the Tiger Demon Divine Fist to the peak of the demon god level. I can only wait for Lao Ding to refine the artifact and make pills for me."
The old fox fairy nodded slightly, and then couldn't help but sighed: "You are practicing really fast, in the blink of an eye, the Great Sage is about to practice to the realm of demon fairy."
By the way, there are still three apprentices who have not been taught properly.
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "Yes, the Great Sage is about to cultivate to the level of a demon fairy. I'll go and take a look."
After that, he went directly into the Immortal Mansion, called his three disciples to the back of the temple, and asked solemnly: "Do you know how the "Tiger Demon Divine Fist" can break through to the realm of demon fairy, and how to break through to the realm of demon god?"
How would we know this?
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong slowly shook his head. Zhu Tianpeng and Niu Dali shook their heads again and again, indicating that they didn't know.
Upon seeing this, Chen Jiu immediately took out the secret book of "Tiger Demonic Divine Fist" and explained in detail: "The meaning of gathering qi into a vortex is to use the consciousness to control the vital energy to form a vortex in the dantian, and the meaning of swirl into a point is to use the consciousness to continuously add the vital energy generated by the elixir into the vortex, making the vortex spin faster and faster, and finally shrink into a point.
This point is actually the gateway or transmission point to enter the demon power space. Once this point is formed, the vitality in the Dantian will pass through this point and enter the demon power space, and the chaotic energy in the demon power space will also suddenly turn into vitality. "
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's face was filled with realization and he nodded slowly. However, Zhu Tianpeng and Niu Dali were still confused.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu took the trouble to stretch out his hand and said solemnly: "Watch carefully, use your spiritual sense to carefully observe the changes on my palm."
After saying that, he directly used his spiritual sense to control the wood spiritual energy to form a vortex in the palm of his hand, and then continued to add wood spiritual energy into it, making the vortex spin faster and faster.
Soon, a huge whirlpool formed in the huge hall. The clothes of Sun Wukong, Zhu Tianpeng and Niu Dali were rustling in the wind, and the three monsters could hardly open their eyes.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu retracted the vortex and said solemnly: "This is the gathering of energy into a vortex. You should have seen the process of the vortex accelerating. As long as you continue to add energy and accelerate it, the vortex will suddenly shrink into a point, and you will become immortals. Do you understand?"
Zhu Tianpeng asked carefully: "Master, where do we get so much energy to add in?"
Oh, you are so stupid!
Chen Jiu sighed secretly, and then explained: "You can keep taking Blood Soul Pills or Essence Pills. If one bottle is not enough, take two bottles. If two bottles are not enough, take three bottles. Eat until you have enough. Do you understand?"
At this moment, Zhu Tianpeng and Niu Dali finally nodded as if they suddenly understood.
Next, Chen Jiu patiently explained his understanding of the way of qi and blood. Zhu Tianpeng and Niu Dali certainly couldn't understand him, he only hoped that Sun Wukong could understand it. In this way, even if he unfortunately failed to pass the calamity and died, the method of becoming a god through the "Tiger Demon Divine Fist" would not be lost.
