Chapter 335: Azhen's Tribulation

Chapter 335: Azhen's Tribulation
Sitting cross-legged in the Zhenwu Hall, Yan Xu did not rush to move, but tried to calm down as much as possible. Only in this way could he sense the meaning of Zhenwu in the hall.

The Ming world is different from the modern world where Yan Xu lives, where the supernatural and mysterious have completely disappeared, otherwise there would not be such magical things as internal strength, so there is also a certain mysterious foundation, such as the true meaning.

The true meaning of martial arts and the true meaning of enlightenment really exist, but only a few people can comprehend them. If Yan Xu hadn't been cheating, he would also be at a loss.

After calming down, Yan Xu carefully discerned the true meaning of martial arts contained in the thick incense in the hall through the incense and candlelight.

The meaning of Zhenwu here does not come from Zhenwu Emperor, but from the human heart. It's just that the seed was planted by Sanfeng Zhenren, nurtured and grown by many Taoists of Wudang Sect, and finally grew stronger by absorbing the incense of countless believers. Therefore, what is truly valuable is not the huge number of incense sticks, nor the incense image of Zhenwu Emperor that appears from time to time, but the seed planted by Sanfeng Zhenren.

After an unknown amount of time, Yan Xu suddenly had an idea. He seized the opportunity accurately and immediately threw out the Tai Chi diagram.

At this moment, he could no longer care about anything else, so as soon as the Tai Chi diagram was used, it released thousands of rays of light, illuminating most of the Wudang Mountains like a fairyland, attracting countless people to worship.

However, Yan Xu was not distracted by this at all. Instead, he concentrated his mind and fixed the ever-changing Zhenwu intention for a moment.

After a while, the glow faded, and the Tai Chi diagram slowly fell from the sky. Yan Xu unfolded it and saw that the water and fire energies transformed into a turtle and a snake that were swimming comfortably on the Tai Chi diagram. He immediately smiled, knowing that he had succeeded.

Yan Xu did not intend to take away all of the Zhenwu, not because it was not good enough or because he could not do it, but because he knew that too much is as bad as too little.

The meaning of Zhenwu is the seed left by Zhenren Sanfeng. It is his lifelong understanding of the Tao. Even though it has been constantly sublimated through incense and worship, it has not erased the mark he left behind. Therefore, if Yan Xu accepts it all, he will definitely be deeply influenced by Zhenren Sanfeng.

It's not a big deal if you're trapped in this world, because this is already the ceiling level.

But Yan Xu had infinite possibilities, and he limited himself early on, so it would not be easy to break through in the future, so he only took the yin and yang energies of water and fire.

After searching Wudang Mountain from top to bottom, Yan Xu did not just turn around and leave. Instead, he left a set of martial arts that was more complete than the ones on Mount Huashan to Wudang Mountain, as a way of settling the cause and effect. Then, without waiting for Taoist Chongxu to persuade him to stay, he returned to Mount Huashan with Lin Pingzhi and Dongfang Bubai, who was curious about everything.

The martial arts world at this time was no longer the same as before. Yan Xu's sword that split mountains and cracked rocks was like a chop on the spine of the martial artists. After the shock and excitement, boredom became the main theme. They couldn't muster the energy to do anything. For a moment, the huge martial arts world was as dull as stagnant water.

After Dongfang Bubai disappeared, Ren Woxing quietly resumed his position as the leader of the Demon Cult, but no one cared, because everyone knew that the Demon Cult would not dare to do anything now, unless they wanted to chop down the Black Wood Cliff with a sword again.

Zuo Lengchan, who was originally sharpening his knife to attack Si Yue, could no longer be honest. He stopped all the plans he had prepared for many years and even started to clean up his hands to avoid being caught.

Only Yue Buqun, who was grinning from ear to ear, wanted to show off. After all, he had been humble for so many years and had accumulated so many grievances in his heart. However, reason told him that it was better to keep a low profile.

When Yue Buqun learned that Master Yuan Hua had returned to Huashan, he immediately went to visit him with his junior sister.

Although he didn't look in a good mood, Yue Buqun still smiled and took his sister down the mountain.

As long as Master Yuan Hua is still in Huashan, the Huashan Sect will not fall, and no one will dare to attack. Yue Buqun, who has never been so relaxed, raised the corners of his mouth and walked briskly. He didn't know what was wrong with him, but he let out a long whistle, and playfully pulled his junior sister to perform light skills and fly through the mountains and forests, as if he had returned to the time when the battle of sword energy in Huashan had not yet begun.

Yan Xu in Woyun Temple just smiled when he heard the voice. Old Yue had been holding back for most of his life, and it was finally rewarded. At least that unlucky guy could have a good ending after changing from a disciple to a junior fellow apprentice. "It seems that your condition is very stable. You can go down the mountain tomorrow." Yan Xu said to Dongfang Bubai in a good mood.

"Can we leave now?" Since his rebirth, Dongfang Bubai no longer has depression and self-destructive tendencies. Instead, he is full of curiosity about everything. He even wants to have a real relationship and enjoy real love, so he said with a smile.

"Go, but come back every few months so I can see how you are doing." Yan Xu waved his hand and said.

After Miss Dongfang left, Yan Xu asked Lin Pingzhi to look after the Taoist temple, and then went to the back mountain because Azhen Po was preparing to overcome the tribulation.

The other immortals did not come because they had also reached the critical point. If they came to watch, it would be easy to trigger their own heavenly tribulation. By that time, the tribulation clouds would merge and they might all perish together.

At this moment, Azhenpo has revealed her true form. A four or five foot tall white hedgehog stands there quietly, but does not look scary or weird. Instead, she looks peaceful and indifferent, which is the temperament she has developed from hundreds of years of practicing medicine.

The immortals of Azhenpo's branch have been practicing medicine for generations and accumulating good deeds. Although in the late Qing Dynasty, due to excessive depletion of spiritual energy, they could only use more incense to replenish it, they still accumulated a lot of good deeds. In addition, after coming to the Ming Dynasty world, they expelled a large amount of incense poison, and breathed in spiritual energy to replenish it, which gave them two more confidence, so they were not panicked.

As expected, when Azhenpo triggered the heavenly calamity, the calamity clouds were only three to five acres in size, and the flashing lightning was much thinner.

Although she had expected it, she still felt relieved after seeing it with her own eyes. Azhenpo secretly thanked her original choice.

When the thunderbolt struck, Azhenpo used a secret method to shoot out the long silver needle from her back, which weakened the thunder while also taking the opportunity to temper the long needle, killing two birds with one stone.

Azhenpo was able to act so relaxed, thanks to Yan Xu.

When he was killing everyone in the Demon City, Azhenpo and several other immortals provided him with a lot of help, and he earned some merit. In addition, he escaped from his original cage, so he had enough energy to temper the long needle while transcending the tribulation. Otherwise, he could only rely on destroying the long needle that had been nourished for hundreds of years to have a chance of survival. The difference between the two is huge.

When the calamity clouds dissipated, A Zhenpo carefully put the silver needle that was still wrapped in electric current into the needle bag, then smiled and bowed to Yan Xu to thank him for saving her life and enabling her to achieve enlightenment, and Yan Xu also returned the bow.

If it weren't for the good intentions of the immortals like Azhenpo, the two sides would have to fight each other life or death when they met, and there wouldn't be such harmony.

After going through the heavenly tribulation, Azhenpo's physical lifespan increased greatly, and at the same time her soul transformed into a divine soul. After merging with incense, she was able to condense her Dharma image. Only then could she be called a true immortal. Before that, she could only be said to have used some small tricks to pretend to be a ghost.

"Congratulations, Azhenpo, you are one step closer to becoming an immortal." Yan Xu touched the frightened fox demon and said to Azhenpo with a smile.

“If you hadn’t brought me out of the sea of ​​suffering, I would still be struggling in the worldly affairs, with no chance of transcendence.” Azhenpo, who finally survived the disaster, said with great emotion.

After they praised each other for a while, Yan Xu asked in detail about the feeling of overcoming the tribulation, because he always felt that the Lightning Thunder Fist, which had been making slow progress, was lacking in the tribulation.

Unexpectedly, Azhenpo had a better way. The long needles that she had nurtured for hundreds of years had just been refined by heavenly thunder, and there was still a lot of heavenly thunder's breath remaining. If she used this to stimulate the acupuncture points, she could get 70% to 80% of the feeling of a heavenly tribulation.
