That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 680 Swallowing a Golden Elixir
After bombarding the Circular Mound Altar, the Chinese army advanced all the way towards the Ming Tomb of Meishan, but instead of attacking the camp of the Tomb Guard Army, they set up camp about ten miles away from Meishan.

In the handsome tent of the big camp, Qu Chang'an, who was wearing armor, sat on the head of the tent with a golden knife, and beside him stood an old Taoist who was resting with his eyes closed. Ming Chen, the master of the Demon Palace.

Compared with Bing Chen, who entered the Tao with a sword and has amazing combat power, Ming Chen's realm and combat power are not top-notch. The reason why he can be in charge of the Demon Suppressing Palace after Wu Chen and Qing Chen is because he is planning a plan. Quite accomplished, but in the battle of He Laoshan, the Zhenmo Temple was defeated and almost the entire army was wiped out. The Daoist had to bow his head to make peace with Qingchen. Bao, although not infamous, has also changed from the original praise to mixed reputation, so he can only take the blame and resign from the position of Lord of the Demon Suppressing Hall, and retire from now on.

Qu Changan sat motionless, thick fog rose from the teacup on the table in front of him, covering his face, if one could see through this layer of fog, one would find Qu Changan's expression was dull, like a string in the hands of a juggler puppet.Ming Chen has been silent all the time. According to the plan between him and Xiao Jin, in addition to the many Earth Immortal monks on the bright side, there are five Earth Immortal monks who will act as backup for the change of the Circular Mound Altar. They are two Shangguanfeng from the Ghost King's Palace, and three people including the deputy head of the Taoist Punishment Department. These five people will take on the task of mopping up and cleaning up the mess.

As for the next thing he has to do, it is to command Qu Chang'an's central army, turn around and go straight to the imperial capital, cooperate with Duanmu Ruisheng in the imperial capital to take down the imperial capital in one fell swoop, and control the major yamen and civil and military officials in the city. It means that great things can be accomplished, and great things can be expected.

But when that beam of light shot up from the direction of Mingling, Ming Chen in the big tent suddenly opened his eyes, and said in a voiceless voice: "How could this happen?"

How could Qing Chen fail to ascend with the help of the real teacher Qiu Ye?
How could Xiao Yu, who was already rejected by the Dao of Heaven, prove the Dao with the immortal golden body?

What is the situation in the imperial capital now?
Ming Chen didn't continue to think deeply, his back was slightly chilled, he knew in his heart that this plan was probably a total loss, so his chess piece that entered the game himself was probably in danger.

It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. When things are unavoidable, we should go.

Mingchen is a decisive person, if he no longer cares about Qu Chang'an and the Zhongjun, he will leave.

But at this moment, a chill suddenly spread from Ming Chen's back, it was too late when Ming Chen wanted to react, the back of his heart was pierced three points by a sharp weapon.

Ming Chen was startled and angry. Although he was not good at fighting with others, his realm was unparalleled in the world after all. Compared with the eight elders of Taoism back then, he was only a thread behind. The sneak attacker behind him was sent flying.

The assassin's figure disappeared in a flash, and he could vaguely see a graceful figure, which seemed to be a woman.

Ming Chen's face was gloomy, and he didn't dare to stay any longer, his figure was about to turn into a Changhong and leave the Chinese army's camp, but the next moment, his face changed suddenly, he no longer turned into a rainbow, but used energy to blow his whole body into pieces. All the acupoints and meridians are blocked, so that the blood no longer flows, just like a river turning into stagnant water.

The reason for this is because the sword tip of the female dead soldier just now was quenched with poison. If Ming Chen expected it to be correct, this should be a strange poison "down to earth", which is worse than the God-killing arrow. This poison is specially used to To deal with monks in the realm of the earth immortal, if the monks below the twelfth floor of the earth immortal take this poison, they will die immediately. After one hour and three quarters, the body will also decay, so this poison is named "down to earth", which means that the gods in the sky will descend to the mundane world.

Ming Chen was pierced in the back of the heart by the female assassin just now, and the toxin has already entered the body along the wound. If he is left alone and allowed to penetrate deep into the bone marrow, even if he can't die just because of his cultivation level, but this physique will It is inevitable that it will be destroyed. Could it be that he, a dignified man, has to change another hut in his later years?
Although Ming Chen has temporarily suppressed the poison of "coming down to earth" in his body, he can still clearly feel that his cultivation realm is slowly passing away, just like a lake being dug a hole on the lake embankment. It won't be a thousand miles away, but under the washing of the lake water, this hole is getting bigger and bigger. Once the dike is completely broken, it will be a completely out of control situation.

Cultivator realm climbs, the more difficult it is to climb to the sky, some talented people, in the very beginning, often achieve once a year, or even several times a year, the so-called threshold does not seem to exist for them , but once you have passed the Twelve Floors of the Earth Immortal and become a real great monk, even if you are a great talent, you have to have a threshold of several years, and people who are not great talents will often get stuck at a certain threshold In the past ten years or decades, there are many examples of wasting a lifetime in front of the threshold.

The difficulty of seeking the Tao and the hardship of seeking the Tao can be seen.

Because of this, Ming Chen didn't dare to be careless, after thinking for a while, he forcibly mobilized the energy in his body, turned into a long rainbow, left the camp of the Chinese army, and arrived in the territory of Zhili Prefecture in an instant.Instead of going to the barren mountains and wild mountains, he did the opposite, came to a rather prosperous city, used illusion to transform into a wealthy businessman, and then used the technique of spreading beans into soldiers to transform a few followers, and went to the largest city in the city. The courtyard has a single-family courtyard, and after dismissing all the maids and servants in the courtyard, he took out an exquisite jade box from his bosom, opened it carefully, and found a golden pill inside the box, which was very fragrant.

This is the famous Taoist Golden Pill, which is divided into nine grades. The top one is called the Nine Grade Golden Pill. Elixir.The next level is the eight-turn golden elixir, which can revive the dead, flesh and bones.Once again, it is a seven-turn golden pill, which is of great benefit to cultivation. It is said that if a ghost monk takes one, he can skip the human immortal and directly step into the realm of the earth fairy. Back then, the Taoist sect gave Xiao Yu a seven-turn golden pill, but But it was eaten by Lin Yinping's white cat, Ban Lan, and that's why it has all kinds of miracles today, and the mystery of the golden elixir can be seen.

Now the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir and the Eight-Turn Golden Elixir have become legends. I am afraid that only the heavens have them, that is, the Seven-Turn Golden Pill, and there are very few left in the Taoist sect. It is said to cure all diseases, cure all poisons, and has the magical effect of prolonging life. As for whether he can cure the poison of "going down to earth", Ming Chen is not fully sure, but with the medicinal power of this golden elixir, he can cure it in a short period of time. Completely suppressed the poison in his body and supported him to return to the Taoist Xuandu.

Ming Chen once again scanned the surrounding area of ​​the yard with his divine sense, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he sat cross-legged, solemnly took out the golden medicine pill, put it in his mouth, and put it on his chest and abdomen. Suddenly, a little golden light lit up.

This golden light went down all the way, and finally hovered over his chest. At the same time, countless golden lights were born in the sea of ​​qi, like a golden lotus.

Swallowing a golden elixir into my stomach, I realized that my fate was beyond my control.If my life is up to me, then I can plant golden lotus in the fire.Once the Hehe Jindan is completed, you will know that it is up to me and the sky.

This is Jindan Avenue.
