Chapter 228: Unobstructed Conference, Soul Opening
Yuyang City, Ge Family.
In the eyes of outsiders, the Ge family had experienced a turmoil a few years ago. The disciples of the Sunset Sect seemed to be fighting with outsiders again, and it seemed that a sword immortal had appeared, and the entire house was destroyed.
However, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. The Ge family has another house in another inconspicuous place in the city, which has been inhabited since the last war.
In an exquisite boudoir in the house, Luo Suyi sat at the window, looking at the sky with a melancholy expression. It was unknown when she came back to her senses and continued with her needlework.
Next to her, a pair of young women with similar looks were serving, pouring tea and water, and chatting to entertain people.
"Hehe, Madam, are you missing the Master again?"
Luo Suyi just smiled slightly when she heard their words. This pair of twin sisters were also Lu Chengfeng's concubines. They were named Yun Qingge and Yun Manyu respectively. They were originally born in a wealthy family, spoiled and had a much simpler mind.
Over the years, I have gotten along very well with Luo Suyi, like a sister. I often do needlework with her and chat with her to relieve boredom.
Yun Qingge saw that Luo Suyi didn't answer, and said with a smile: "I think Madam must have thought about it. People say that women are like wolves at 30 and tigers at 40. It's okay for us, but Madam and Master were so loving in the past. Now she has been alone in the empty room for so long, I'm afraid she must be very lonely..."
"You little slut, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth to pieces." Luo Suyi scolded with a smile, "I think it's obviously you who are in love, but you have to drag me into it."
Yun Qingge curled her lips and said with some dissatisfaction: "What's the difference between us being widows now and living a life of widowhood? The master can send housekeeper Chongshan to pick us up, so why can't he come and pick us up himself?"
Luo Suyi looked at the two of them and knew that they were also very frustrated. They were trapped in this small courtyard every day and could not go out of the main door or the second door. They had experienced this before. It was impossible not to have complaints when they stayed alone in the empty room for a long time.
Although they had no worries about food and clothing, their lives were worse than those of women in ordinary families. They lived in fear all day long, not knowing when they would be caught up by their enemies and killed. They were also lonely in their boudoirs, and every day was extremely difficult to endure.
Even she herself, hadn't she longed for it many times?
It's just that she and Lu Chengfeng have a deep relationship, so even if it's hard, she can still hold on. But these girls in the yard are all in their prime, dressed up and pretty, and I feel pity for them. But they are trapped here without seeing the sun. How can they be willing?
Luo Suyi also knew that some of them privately polished each other's mirrors at night, and some even brought some jade pillars or horns, but she couldn't say much and could only turn a blind eye.
You can't be without a man and not be allowed to solve the problem yourself!
"Husband, where are you now? When can we meet again?"
Luo Suyi was also feeling depressed and sad in her heart, but she was unwilling to show it in front of others.
Since Chongshan was ordered to come here more than a year ago, he has displayed extremely terrifying strength. Not only did he kill the disciples of the Sunset Sect who came to provoke trouble, but he also brought all these women to this house.
Luo Suyi watched helplessly as the old man who claimed to be the young master's butler walked out one incarnation after another, led away the pursuers, hid the truth from the world, and respectfully called him the mistress.
With Chongshan as a loyal butler, no one dared to challenge Luo Suyi's position in the mansion.
Luo Suyi was lost in thought when she suddenly heard Chongshan's old voice coming from outside the door, "Madam, the master has sent a message that he will take you back soon."
"Please inform Madam that the master will be here in an hour at most."
Hearing this, Luo Suyi was completely stunned, surprised and happy. He stood up and asked hurriedly, "Butler Chongshan, are you telling the truth?"
Chongshan replied from outside the door: "I will not lie about these things. The master will be here soon."
Luo Suyi felt her heart pounding wildly and was a little confused for a moment. She subconsciously looked in the mirror to see how she was dressed.
Yun Qingge and Yun Manyu who were standing by also had a look of surprise in their eyes. If possible, who would be willing to stay in this house and be a widow?
They hurried forward to open the door and asked in a chattering voice: "Butler Chongshan, is the master going to take all of us away? What should we prepare?"
Chongshan smiled and said, "Of course I will take all the ladies with me. As for the luggage, you don't have to bring it. Grandpa has everything."
"If ladies have any personal belongings they want to take with them, please pack them up as soon as possible."
"How will the master come to pick us up? Will he use a carriage? We have a lot of things to bring, and we don't know if there will be enough space?" the two women chattered.
"You two, stop asking questions. Just pass the news down and let everyone prepare. Remember not to bring too many things." Luo Suyi finally came back to her senses at this time and instructed the two sisters.
Yun Qingge and Yun Manyu agreed hurriedly and ran out to notify them.
Luo Suyi took a deep breath, thanked Chongshan, sent him away, and called back the maids to serve her.
"You guys go get ready. I need to shower and change clothes."
She did not prepare the messy luggage, but just thought that she had not seen her husband for a long time and did not know if there was another woman around her husband.
I am getting older and older. I am now in my early thirties. Although I practice martial arts to improve my body, my skin is still as smooth as snow. My figure has even become more plump, and I have a more mature woman's flavor.
But after not seeing each other for so long, she still couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
After the maids prepared the water, she took off all her clothes, stepped into the pool, and then called two maids to help her cleanse herself, even her private parts.
After the water had been changed three times, there was not a speck of dust on her body, her skin was as clear as jade, and it seemed so tender that water could be squeezed out of it. By this time, more than half an hour had passed.
If it weren't for the help of the maids and old women, it would have taken even longer.
She was thinking about the time, so she let the maid dry her body, put on a coat casually, and started to choose clothes.
"This one looks too demure..."
“Would this one be a bit flirtatious?”
“Is this one too plain?”
Luo Suyi felt even more nervous than on her wedding day. There were so many clothes to choose from, but none of them suited her.
As time was getting closer, she felt a little anxious.
But suddenly, I felt someone hugging me from behind, and a familiar voice came to my ears, "Who made my master's wife angry? Tell me, I will help her vent her anger."
Luo Suyi's body softened immediately, tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice became sticky. "It's all because of you, a bad guy, who provoked me. You have such a cruel heart that you left me here alone for so long..."
"Then I will make amends to Master's wife, okay?" Lu Chengfeng hugged her flexible and delicate waist, sniffing her fragrance greedily and feeling the beauty of her body.
It was indeed a long time since he had favored this woman.
Luo Suyi fell into her arms like a puddle of water, and her voice almost floated out of her throat, weak and powerless, "I, I haven't changed my clothes yet..."
"Why change clothes? Why is it so troublesome?" Lu Chengfeng glanced at the woman. She was only wearing a thin gauze dress. Her beautiful body and snow-white skin were all clearly visible.
He moved his throat and felt a little irritated.
"Even if you put them all on, you'll have to take them off later. It's just right now to save the trouble."
Luo Suyi moaned and felt as if her body was no longer her own. The fish were all wet, as if there was a flood.
"Husband, I can't stand it anymore..."
Lu Chengfeng couldn't bear it either. The young woman was in her early thirties, with a plump figure and full of maturity. She was a beautiful woman who was picked by him and trained for a long time.
After not seeing each other for a long time, he was actually a little greedy.
He immediately communicated with Fulong Cave Heaven with his consciousness, a ray of five-colored divine light fell, and Luo Suyi disappeared.
This was the wonderful use he researched after re-refining the Fulong Cave Heaven.
As long as the clone is there, no matter where the Fulong Cave Heaven is, as long as the door to the cave heaven is opened with the five-colored divine light, the people in the cave heaven can be allowed to walk out, or other people can be taken into the cave heaven.
In this way, mobility is greatly improved.
At this time, the yard was in a mess, and the women were cleaning it up, and many of them were a little excited.
Lu Chengfeng didn't have that much patience for them, and didn't care whether these women were cleaned up or not. He shone with the five-colored divine light, taking all the women away on the spot.
Only Chongshan was left standing respectfully in front of him.
Lu Chengfeng knew that this was just one of his clones. For more than a year, Zhu Yuxian had been hunting down his real body with the Mountain and River Cauldron in his hand.
However, Lu Chengfeng's Great Sun Spirit could predict the future and had foreseen this, so Zhu Yuxian always came up empty-handed.
Chongshan's true body has been taking Zhu Yuxian around the overseas fairy island recently, and the two of them will not be able to return to Chixian in a short time.
This was also because Lu Chengfeng had not yet figured out what kind of hidden trick Yi Hongchen had planted on Zhu Yuxian, so he led her away far away to avoid her interfering with his next actions.
"Master, the matter here is done, and I will take my leave now." Chongshan laughed strangely and said hello. The body then turned into a corpse and fell to the ground.
"This old guy's clone technique has surpassed the original Thousand-Handed Thousand-Eyed Demon Spirit Divine Transformation Sutra and has embarked on a new path. If this continues, perhaps he can really recover from his crazy state."
"He's quite a genius!"
Lu Chengfeng smiled slightly and his body disappeared.
……
Fulong Cave, Five Elements Mountain.
Luo Suyi only felt dizzy, and when she came to her senses, she felt that she had fallen into a warm embrace.
"Woo!"
Before she could say anything, her red lips were kissed aggressively.
Lu Chengfeng's domineering and hot voice echoed in his ears, "Good Master's Wife, don't say anything, let your disciple serve you well first."
Lu Chengfeng used them one by one, and in the process he also injected the "Sun and Moon Repairing the Sky Sutra" into Luo Suyi's sea of consciousness.
This woman was born with a physique suitable for dual cultivation. She first practiced the "Golden Jade Robe Technique" over the years, and was later taught the "White Lotus Joyful Zen", which are all dual cultivation techniques.
Luo Suyi has now practiced "White Lotus Joyful Zen" to perfection at the eighteenth level. Considering her age of just over thirty, her aptitude is considered excellent. If she can cultivate the true meaning of martial arts, that would be a whole new world.
It’s a pity that she is a woman who lives in a deep house and never goes out of the house. She has not experienced the worldly life, so it is almost impossible for her to practice the true meaning of martial arts.
However, as Lu Chengfeng taught her the "Sun and Moon Repairing the Sky Sutra" and personally guided her with his Great Sun spirit and body, it only took her a few breaths to master this dual cultivation technique in a state of daze and distraction.
After all, he was born with a dual cultivation physique and a top-notch cauldron. The "Sun and Moon Repairing the Sky Sutra" was extremely suitable for Luo Suyi. After practicing it a few times, he felt like a fish in water. He was even eager to practice, clinging to Lu Chengfeng and cooperating with his practice.
The "Sun and Moon Repairing the Sky Sutra" contains all of Lu Chengfeng's experiences over the years, including various postures, guides, techniques, and even some auxiliary spells.
The sun and the moon rotate and time passes.
Under the effect of "The Sun and Moon Repairing the Sky Sutra", Luo Suyi's physical strength was consumed very quickly. In less than an hour, he fainted.
But there was a new moon mark between her eyebrows, and her skin was glowing with a bright luster, making her look even more charming and enchanting.
Lu Chengfeng glanced at the other concubines who were brought here. Some of these women blushed, some looked disdainful, some covered their eyes but peeped, and some were already thirsty and impatient...
He laughed loudly: "All of you, raise your mushrooms for me, and wait for me to join in." He was wanton and ostentatious, just like a big sex maniac.
……
With the "Sun and Moon Repairing the Sky Sutra", even those women with a foundation in martial arts would be vulnerable, and some were even worse than Luo Suyi. Most of them fainted in less than a quarter of an hour.
Fortunately, Lu Chengfeng had many wives and concubines, and it took a lot of time for dozens of them to take turns.
The sun rises and the moon sets, and in the blink of an eye another day has passed.
When there were women lying on the ground inside and outside the Qitian Palace, Lu Chengfeng sat cross-legged among them.
The Sun Spirit at his brow rose and fell, emitting brilliant light all the time. Billions of runes flowed in each ray of light, analyzing the Taoist symbols all the time and consolidating his own foundation.
As the last woman collapsed limply on his body, his spiritual will, which was only a step away from reaching the state of seclusion, finally trembled.
At this moment, he could clearly feel that there seemed to be a sound like a huge bell ringing from the depths of his soul.
The Great Sun God clearly had not changed at all. His magic power, Taoist talismans, legal principles... were all the same as before.
But Lu Chengfeng felt as if he was shedding his skin.
Yes, just like a silkworm pupa breaking free from its cocoon, or like a snake shedding its skin, the mind and will seem to be trying to break free from an invisible bondage and see a wider world.
When observing the realm of heaven and earth, you will see that mountains are not mountains and water is not water. When observing heaven and earth with your heart, all things in heaven and earth are the trajectory of the operation of the Tao, and the laws of the Tao are manifested everywhere.
And "Tongyou" means to communicate with the underworld, also known as seeing gods.
Only when one’s spiritual practice reaches this level can one’s mind freely roam in the torrent of Heaven’s Way, comprehend the changes in Heaven’s Way, and mobilize the power of heaven and earth.
In observing the realm of heaven and earth, the mind’s ability to observe from afar is like a flower in a mirror or a moon in the water, which can only be viewed from afar but not touched.
To reach a secluded place, the key point is the word “tong”.
If we compare the road of heaven and earth to a mountain, observing heaven and earth is looking at the mountain from a distance, and Tongyou is finding the entrance and being able to set foot in the mountains and forests.
But there are many dangers in the mountains and forests, and if you are not careful, you will lose your soul.
Therefore, you need to take the right path before you can climb the mountain.
This path is the supernatural power, the legal principle comprehended by the cultivators, and the path to pursue the way of heaven.
Until one day, you climb to the top of the mountain, looking down from above, and can see all kinds of scenery in the mountains. This is the sixth realm of Minghe.
Only a mind that has reached the state of tranquility can walk in the torrent of heaven's way, see with one's own eyes and even touch all kinds of legal principles. This is what it means to be in the state of tranquility.
Only by having a clear mind can one see the spirit.
Gods are one with heaven and earth and cannot be seen by mortals. Seeing gods is like seeing heaven.
Only by going through the secluded places can one step into the torrent of heaven and see all that is sacred.
Lu Chengfeng had been looking forward to this realm for a long time. He had heard countless myths and legends, and had long been yearning for those legendary immortals, Buddhas and gods.
He also wanted to see with his own eyes those gods that only existed in myths and legends.
"Thunder God and Lightning Goddess, Wind Master and Rain Master, the wandering gods of day and night, Black and White Impermanence, the star gods of the heavens, the six guards, and even Yama and Tianzun..."
"The number of gods has been increasing since the beginning of the world, and now they are as numerous as the hairs on a cow, far more than the number of true immortals in the world."
"The Empress is able to command all the gods. I wonder what kind of extraordinary magical power this must be..."
Lu Chengfeng's heart was filled with wonder and yearning.
At this time, with the operation of the "Sun and Moon Repairing the Sky Sutra", he could feel very clearly that his soul was like a big sun, and those women were the bright moon. After the sun and the moon combined, and yin and yang worked together, his soul became more relaxed and agile.
At this time, he was gradually breaking free from the shackles.
boom! boom! boom!
This sound does not ring in the ears, but explodes deep in the soul.
It was like being in an extremely quiet place, where even the smallest sound sounded like thunder. Lu Chengfeng's soul seemed to be crawling under the abyss, trying to see the light of day again.
If there were a true immortal here, he would be able to discover that the spiritual light that was originally shrouded his body like a flame was now rippling like water waves, sometimes dim and sometimes burning brightly.
As time passed, the brilliance of the Great Sun Spirit became dimmer and dimmer, and all the spell runes were integrated into the depths of the spirit and disappeared without a trace.
hum!hum!hum!
At some point, the light above the Great Sun Spirit was completely extinguished.
These lights are the lights of mana, the manifestation of the power of mana and spells, and at this moment they are all integrated with the Great Sun Spirit.
The soul became more solid and restrained all the light.
It was as if a huge sun had gone out, and even the spiritual light shrouding the body disappeared.
Lu Chengfeng's sea of consciousness seemed to be trapped in eternal darkness.
thump! thump! thump!
It feels like a heart is beating, or like a dragon or snake is shedding its skin.
The sound became slower and louder.
When a certain moment came, the sound exploded completely.
As if at the creation of the world, an incomparably bright light burst out from the depths of the sun. This light was without any color and instantly permeated the heaven and earth, rushing up to the sky, down into the underworld, and spreading in all directions.
The light shines everywhere for thousands of miles, and the sky and earth are clear.
This light was completely different from the golden light that had previously bloomed on the Great Sun Spirit. There were no runes flowing around it. It was pure and clear, invisible and yet omnipresent.
The sacredness of immortals and Buddhas throughout the ages has been called immortal light by some, heart light by Buddha, and divine light by the mighty. Although the names are different, they are all pure spiritual light in essence.
Only when one’s spiritual practice reaches this stage can one see the gods and step into the heavenly way.
The road of heaven and earth is like a mountain. Only by going through the secluded places can you get a glimpse of the path. When you step into the mountains and forests, and are on the mountain, you are an immortal.
Although Lu Chengfeng's real body was sitting cross-legged in the Fulong Cave with his eyes tightly closed, at this moment, everything within a radius of ten thousand miles was clearly visible to him: the sky, the ground, the wind, rain, thunder, and the lava on the earth were all in his eyes.
However, when he looked up at the sky, wanting to glimpse the torrent of heaven and see the sacred things in the heavens, he only saw five-colored rays of light. The rays of light filled the sky and the earth, obscuring everything and blocking everything.
Lu Chengfeng frowned slightly, "No wonder it's so difficult to reach the main road here, and it's disconnected from Shenzhou. It turns out that a powerful person has cut off the connection between heaven and earth, and blocked this place from time and space. It's like it has become an undercurrent in the torrent of heaven and earth, invisible to outsiders, and people inside cannot get out."
"If you want to find Shenzhou, you must first break this magical power."
"Could it be that the Peacock King who did this? Does he have such magical powers?"
He just found it incredible. Such magical powers were more like the work of a Heavenly Lord. Playing with time, distorting the void, and isolating heaven and earth with magical powers were definitely not the methods of ordinary immortals and gods.
“If you cannot step into the torrent of heaven, you cannot climb the mountain. Even if you stand at the entrance, you cannot advance an inch.”
Lu Chengfeng shook his head. "No wonder Yi Hongchen went to great lengths to transform the Thirteen States of Chi County into a map of mountains, rivers, and states. I guess he also wanted to break the blockade of magical powers and go to Shenzhou."
"Otherwise, even if you practice for thousands of years, you will not make any progress."
Various thoughts flashed through his mind. Although he was a little disappointed that he didn't meet the gods in heaven, he finally took a crucial step anyway. His mind became clear and this was the beginning of his ascension to heaven.
At this moment, Yi Hongchen's extremely cold and angry voice came from between heaven and earth, "How dare you break into the fairyland right under my nose, Lu Chengfeng, do you think I'm dead?"
"You're dreaming if you want to become an immortal!"
"I will make you die today."
Once Lu Chengfeng achieved a breakthrough, his mind became clear and the radiance of his mind illuminated an area of 100,000 miles, illuminating the entire world.
Although ordinary people cannot see it, with such a big commotion, Yi Hongchen is not blind, so he naturally discovered it at the first moment.
She was immediately furious. She had spent so much time and countless energy and hard work, but she had not been able to kill Lu Chengfeng, the ant. Instead, he had been allowed to walk step by step to where he is today, and even to have a spiritual connection and enter the gate of immortality. How could she not be annoyed?
"Hahaha, Yi Hongchen, are you sure you want to fight me in Taiwu City?" Lu Chengfeng's arrogant laughter rang out in the void. "You have been planning for hundreds of years, isn't it just to sacrifice the Mountain and River State Map?"
"Once you and I fight again, the entire capital will be reduced to ruins once again. By then, it will not be that easy for you to gather people's hearts and destiny."
"Do you dare to do it here?"
Lu Chengfeng threatened the lives of the people in the city without any hesitation.
"You think you are worthy enough to threaten me?" Yi Hongchen sneered disdainfully: "Do you think that being able to communicate with the spirit world makes you an immortal? You are still far from it. You need to combine your spiritual power with your soul, and then communicate with the way of heaven. After being baptized by the way of heaven and transformed into a Taoist fetus, you can become a true immortal."
"This place is inaccessible to heaven and earth. Even if you have spiritual access, what good can it do? If you cannot communicate with heaven, you will never be able to enter the realm of the True Immortal in your lifetime."
"If you don't become a true immortal, I can kill you as easily as I can kill an ant."
When Lu Chengfeng heard this, he still had a smile on his face. What the other party said was indeed the truth. If one could not communicate with the way of heaven, in such a place where there was no connection between heaven and earth, it would be impossible to truly set foot in the fairyland.
The only solution is the Divine Court Edict and the Divine Court Immortal Position.
The Divine Court Talisman was originally the sacred position opened up by the Empress with her great supernatural powers in the torrent of Heavenly Dao. By refining the talisman, one can get closer to Heavenly Dao. With the help of the power of the talisman, one can comprehend the Dao and achieve twice the result with half the effort. However, it can only resist the erosion of the torrent of Heavenly Dao to a certain extent.
This so-called True Immortal Talisman is like a road opened up by predecessors, who lead you forward on the mountain road. In this way, you do not need to open up a new road on your own, and you can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Yi Hongchen was able to achieve true immortality in this red county that was connected to heaven and earth only because he obtained the true immortal talisman from Taiwu Dragon Lord of the Western Wilderness.
Although Lu Chengfeng received a gift from Chu Xiangtian, the Divine Court Talisman is more like a magic weapon and cannot be obtained through a gift.
Originally, in the Fulong Cave Heaven, there was the honorable title of Peacock King. If Lu Chengfeng could obtain this honorable title, he could ascend to heaven in one step and become a true immortal.
It’s a pity that this thing was caught by Chu Tiange.
But Lu Chengfeng had expected all this. He was not in a hurry and chuckled, "Yi Hongchen, don't brag. If you could find me, you wouldn't have waited until today."
"But you underestimate me too much. Do you think that I am no match for you because I haven't cultivated the Dao Embryo?"
"Today I will let you know what it means that there are always people better than you and there are always higher standards beyond your standards."
As the words fell, in the center of Taiwu King City, on top of the thirty-three-story pagoda, a young man with a body shining with light and a heart that illuminated the area for thousands of miles appeared out of thin air.
He was wearing a black robe, had a handsome face, a slender figure, and his long hair was casually scattered, naturally exuding a free and easy demeanor.
Behind him, a big sun rose, shining its light in all directions.
"Lu Chengfeng, the head of the Yuncang Sword Sect, please teach me, Master Taiwu!"
The sound resounded through the heavens and the earth, the capital of Taiwu was shaking, and all the people were in an uproar, looking up at the sky. (End of this chapter)
