Chapter 38: Soul Out of Body, Comparable to the Martial Arts Heaven and Earth Realm
Jiang Changsheng wandered around all night, and found that there was no master inside or outside the capital who could compete with him. The one with the strongest true energy in the city was Jiang Yu. At present, the two of them were on good terms, so it was impossible for Jiang Yu to attack him.
After returning to the house, Jiang Changsheng began to practice martial arts to reserve his spiritual power in case he ran out of spiritual power when the time came.
The moon sets and the sun rises.
The sun can be seen in the capital during the cold winter. Even though there has been war all year round, the capital is still prosperous. For the common people, the place under the emperor is the safest.
Boom boom
Thunder suddenly sounded, resounding throughout the capital city, causing countless civilians, soldiers, and dignitaries to turn their heads and look. They saw dark clouds gathering on the top of Longqi Temple, turning into rolling thunderclouds, and the flying snow in the sky melted and turned into mist surrounding Longqi Temple, making it look like a fairyland, looming.
Thunder and lightning are extremely conspicuous in the dense fog, and are even more spectacular in the daytime of cold winter.
"Is that Longqi Temple?"
"It is rumored that Taoist Changsheng has survived a thunder tribulation before. Could it be that he is going to survive another one?"
"Is this true? I thought it was just a rumor spread by Longqi Temple."
"Really, there are pilgrims who have seen Taoist Changsheng floating in the air and fighting against lightning, just like an immortal."
"Today I want to see which is true and which is false."
The people in the city were talking about it.
In the palace, Jiang Yuan, supported by the Queen, walked tremblingly out of the imperial study and looked towards the Longqi Temple in the distance.
The Empress took the anti-aging pill and remained young forever, but Jiang Yuan looked to be in his seventies or eighties. He was much thinner and trembled when he walked. He said, "That little Taoist priest Changsheng is going through the tribulation again. I'm curious, is he really going through the tribulation or is he just pretending to be mysterious?"
The Queen smiled and said, "Of course it's just a trick. People who practice martial arts don't need to go through tribulations."
Jiang Yuan said: "I always feel that he is not trying to be mysterious. Take the Rejuvenating Pill for example. Don't you think it is magical? No famous doctor or Taoist master in the world can make such a pill."
The Empress thought this made sense and became more interested in Taoist Changsheng. She said, "Your Majesty, you are so close to Taoist Changsheng. When will you summon him to the palace so that I can see ?"
Jiang Yuan's eyes became vague, and he said faintly: "It's time to let him come to see you."
at the same time.
Inside the Longqi Temple, Xu Tianji, Wang Chen, and Arakawa were dumbfounded, Jiang Ziyu and Ping An were extremely excited, and they all looked up at Jiang Changsheng who was floating above the eaves.
Jiang Changsheng was meditating in the air, his robes fluttering, and his Qilin whisk placed flat on his legs. A bolt of lightning struck him, but was blocked and dissipated by the invisible air shield on his body.
The tribulation begins!
"So the rumors are true... He really can survive the thunder tribulation... What kind of martial arts is Qiankun Tianjing?"
Xu Tianji muttered to himself, and the look he gave Jiang Changsheng changed, like a mortal looking up to an immortal god.
The disciples of Longqi Temple and the temporary pilgrims gathered outside the courtyard to watch the excitement. Many new disciples had never seen Jiang Changsheng transcend the tribulation, so they were very excited.
The last time Jiang Changsheng survived the tribulation was eighteen years ago. At that time, he was twenty-one years old. Now he is thirty-nine years old.
Jiang Changsheng ignored the gazes of others and concentrated on overcoming the tribulation. As the thunder and lightning became more and more frequent, he began to feel the pressure.
The sixth level of thunder tribulation is too terrifying!
Far surpassing the last time I overcame the tribulation!
The deafening roar made everyone in Longqi Temple feel like the sky was about to fall. The people in the city were also terrified, fearing that Longqi Mountain would be destroyed by thunder.
Seeing the power of the thunder tribulation was about to begin, Jiang Changsheng immediately began to use the incense value to offset the power of the thunder tribulation. In an instant, a little incense light emerged from his body, drifted to the top of his head, and quickly formed a flame to resist the continuous bombardment of the thunder.
Jiang Changsheng watched as the incense value began to decrease. With the fire above his head, he could retain his spiritual power for the time being.
No matter how powerful the thunder was, it could not break through the fire and strike him. He felt like he was taking shelter under a tree. However, he couldn't relax too much in front of everyone and had to pretend to show his supernatural powers.
"Too powerful! Even such thunder power cannot hit the Taoist priest."
"This thunder is not a trick."
"What is the flame on the Taoist's head? Is it the true energy?"
"Perhaps this is what Taoists call the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head."
"We should address the Taoist priest as the Immortal Master and not offend him. Come and pay your respects."
As the disciples were discussing, the pilgrims began to kneel down, causing the disciples to kneel down as well.
Jiang Ziyu was so excited that he didn't notice that the birthmark between his eyebrows was flashing with a faint golden light.
Wang Chen sighed: "The realm of martial arts is really hard to imagine. I underestimated martial arts before."
Xu Tianji stood beside him, took a deep breath, and said: "Indeed, there is no peak in the realm of martial arts. Since ancient times, those legends of immortals and gods were only achieved by powerful martial artists. Mortals just don't dare to believe that they can reach such a high level by practicing martial arts. The fact that the Taoist priest has passed the tribulation only shows that his realm is far beyond what we have seen and heard."
After surpassing the Tongtian Realm, Xu Tianji thought he was invincible. He was sure that he had surpassed the Tongtian Realm and reached a higher realm. At least in Dajing, he had never met anyone stronger than himself.
But compared with Taoist Changsheng, this realm seems like just embarking on the path of martial arts.
Inside the palace.
Jiang Yu stood in the courtyard, looking at the spectacular thunder tribulation on Longqi Mountain. He frowned and asked, "Master Changsheng has already gone through the tribulation for the second time. Although I don't know what kind of martial arts he practiced, if he becomes an enemy of me in the future, can the Mahayana Dragon Tower suppress him?"
Gui Liu, the leader of the Thirteen Thorns of Tianxu, replied: "The Dragon Tower is naturally well-versed, but I don't know how strong this demon is. If Your Highness is worried, I can write a letter and ask the Dragon Tower to send a venerable to test him."
Jiang Yu shook his head and said, "Forget it. That would only anger him. Now he is Ziyu's master. Apart from Chen Li, no other dignitaries have any contact with him. Even Jiang Yu has cut off contact with him. Maybe he is really the kind of person who seeks truth beyond the mundane world. Let's keep the status quo."
Gui Liu nodded. He actually felt that there was no need to test him, because Taoist Changsheng was already very powerful and could not be contained just because one wanted to. Moreover, with such a master in the capital, the Jiang family's imperial power would be safer.
…
After the thunder tribulation lasted for half an hour, the incense value was exhausted, and Jiang Changsheng had to resist the thunder tribulation himself.
Fortunately, the most difficult moment has passed, and he can withstand the next thunder tribulation on his own.
Xu Tianji could no longer count how many times Jiang Changsheng had been struck by lightning. Anyway, he now worshipped Jiang Changsheng very much and regarded him as a god in his heart.
About half an hour later, the thunder tribulation finally ended and the mighty power of heaven dissipated.
Jiang Changsheng began to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The branches of the Earth Spirit Tree swayed along. Invisible and colorless spiritual energy rushed towards Jiang Changsheng, forming a whirlwind around him.
His spiritual power began to surge!
Transform again!
Jiang Changsheng suddenly opened his eyes and found himself floating in the air. He looked down and saw his body was still below.
"Is this... an out-of-body experience?"
Jiang Changsheng said in surprise that the soul leaving the body is one of the characteristics of cultivating immortals. He began to control the floating of his soul and found that he was like a fish in water and was extremely sensitive. He landed in the courtyard, but no one saw his soul. They were still looking at his body and discussing it.
No one can see his soul!
Jiang Changsheng flew towards the city at an extremely fast speed, as if he was performing sword-wielding techniques.
He flew around the capital, up into the sky, down into the ground, through walls and through people. It was a very novel experience.
At this moment, he truly felt like an immortal.
Sudden.
He stopped, suspended in the air, his eyes falling on the imperial palace in the distance. He saw a cloud of yin energy floating above one of the palaces in the imperial palace, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"What is that? An evil spirit? Are there any secrets in the palace?"
Jiang Changsheng frowned and thought about it. He looked confidently and found that there was no one living in that palace when he passed by it when he broke into the palace at night before.
never mind.
Let’s consolidate our cultivation first.
Jiang Changsheng turned around and flew towards his physical body. He was very fast. After his soul entered his physical body, he only felt an itch in his body and couldn't help but tremble all over. When he opened his eyes again, he had already controlled his body.
Astral projection is a great skill, especially for gathering intelligence.
Jiang Changsheng began to consolidate his cultivation. He noticed that the Dao pattern between Jiang Ziyu's eyebrows was glowing. Fortunately, it was very faint and everyone else's attention was on him, so they didn't notice anything unusual about Jiang Ziyu.
This pattern may contain other mysteries.
Jiang Changsheng thought silently, he did not reveal his Dao pattern so as not to expose the relationship between the two.
Seeing the thunderbolt dissipate, Meng Qiushuang and Qing Ku began to disperse the disciples and pilgrims to give Jiang Changsheng some peace and quiet.
The birthmark between Jiang Ziyu's eyebrows returned to normal, and he was dragged into the house by Wang Chen.
Xu Tianji looked for a while, picked up his broom and left, not daring to disturb Jiang Changsheng any further.
Jiang Changsheng hung in mid-air, practicing Qigong and absorbing energy until dusk. His spiritual power was not yet full, but it had already exceeded ten times that before the breakthrough.
So strong!
Jiang Changsheng was excited. After eighteen years of hard practice, he finally broke through to the sixth level.
Now we shouldn’t be afraid of the Mahayana Dragon Tower!
At this moment, lines of words appeared in front of Jiang Changsheng's eyes:
[In the 39th year of Kaiyuan, you practice diligently, comprehend the true meaning of heaven and earth, survive the 39th minor heavenly tribulation, and obtain the survival reward - the secret technique 'Mark of Reincarnation']
[It is detected that you have successfully transcended the tribulation for the second time. Because your method of cultivation does not belong to the way of heaven and earth, you have two choices, and you can only choose one.]
[1. Give up cultivating immortality, your spiritual power will be transformed into the martial arts realm of this world - Qiankun Realm]
[Second, continue to cultivate immortality. Immortals are above all living beings and are revered by all things. The path to cultivating immortality is the path to pursuing the way of heaven. You can turn on the incense calculation function.]
Of course, continue to practice Taoism!
Jiang Changsheng made his choice without hesitation, and then pondered the Qiankun realm.
I don't know how much higher the Qiankun Realm is than the Divine Man Realm. Anyway, he has never heard of the Qiankun Realm. Not to mention the Qiankun Realm, he has never heard anyone else mention the word Divine Man.
However, the existence of this realm means that someone has reached it. In this vast world, there must be a realm of heaven and earth.
Jiang Changsheng will not go out to explore the world in search of the Qiankun Realm. He will stay in Dajing and practice in the novice village he has chosen, dominating the situation. When the young King of Wei ascends the throne and becomes emperor, if he needs any medicinal materials for making elixirs, he can ask the emperor to help search the world, and he can pursue the way of immortality without any worries and effort.
One day, when the realm of martial arts can no longer correspond to the realm of immortal cultivation, then he will be considered to have surpassed martial arts and reached the realm of being invincible in the world.
When he is invincible, he will live a carefree life and experience all the joys of the world!
