I am guarding the sky prison in Journey to the West

Chapter 96 Good and Evil (6k~)

The filthy and filthy pool water exudes a stench, and the closer you get to the place, the stronger the stench becomes.

But, when Li Anran really jumped in.

On the contrary, the stench has faded a lot. After smelling it for a long time, I don't even think it smells bad anymore, but it is a little fascinating.

And the filthy pool water is like a medicated bath in an online novel.

In addition to making Li Anran feel a little uncomfortable at the beginning, after getting used to it, he only felt refreshed physically and mentally, and his energy and cultivation began to improve rapidly.

In just a few breaths, Li Anran's cultivation has broken through from the sixth level of the immortal to the seventh level of the immortal, and is still advancing to the next level at a faster speed.

After a while, Li Anran's cultivation broke through to the eighth level of immortality.

However, this is far from over.

His spirit and cultivation are still improving at a terrifying speed, faster and faster, as if there is no upper limit.

On the cliff, the Green Snake looked at Li Anran jumping into the pool, her face showed joy, and as time passed, her face became more and more happy.

The black liquid in her glass bottle is called "Bad Water". It seems to be only a small bottle, but it assimilates ordinary clear water like fuel, turning this pool of water into a big dye vat.

The only flaw is that it itself is filthy, foul and smelly, and anyone can see the vicious danger in it at a glance.

It is difficult to pull people into the water without using some special means.

However, as long as she can pull people into the water, she basically wins half the battle.

And as long as the opponent doesn't escape immediately, she has already won ninety-nine percent.

Because once a person enters this bad water, he will not see its filth and filth, but will also regard its stink as a fragrance, and will feel extremely comfortable and get countless benefits.

And the comfort and benefits multiply as the soaking time increases.

In this way, even if the enemy is vigilant at the beginning, it is inevitable that they will be immersed in it.

Holding the idea of ​​"wait a little longer, wait a little longer, I will enjoy it a little longer, and I will come out with a little more strength!".

Until it is assimilated by it, it sinks completely, unable to extricate itself.

Green Snake waited for a while, seeing that Li Anran hadn't come out yet, she was completely relieved.

"Idiot! Even if you are a god! After jumping into this big dye vat, you still want to be alone!"

The green snake turned around and walked towards the snake essence and scorpion essence, and was about to rescue them with the treasure bag, when suddenly a vision came from behind.

Looking back.

I saw golden lights shining one after another, and a huge hole suddenly appeared in the center of the pool, revealing Li Anran's figure.

He slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were clear and his expression was calm, as if he was not affected by the bad water at all.

The surrounding pool water was not forced to retreat, but was directly evaporated.

The remaining pool of water kept coming in, forming a huge black vortex around Li Anran's body, and it moved little by little as he walked towards Tan.

It didn't disappear until Li Anran went ashore.

Green Snake stared blankly at Li Anran.

Shocked, stunned, unbelievable, incomprehensible...

Green Snake thought about what would happen when she used this "bad water" against the enemy.

Nothing more than three.

Or get along with it and sink into it forever.

Or stick to your heart and stay out of the mud.

Or the thunder is furious, sweeping away all filth.

She never thought that there are still people who only take benefits and do nothing, turn their faces and deny people!

Li Anran felt the cultivation base of the nine realms of immortality in his body, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

If he was just guessing before, now he has confirmed that as long as he has experienced the seven magic weapons of the snake demon, he can break through to the realm of Xuanxian.

This is equivalent to saving him more than seven years of experience points!
But for ordinary monks, from a heavenly immortal to a profound immortal, at least ten thousand years of hard work is required, even a gap that can never be crossed!
As expected of an ancient great power, this method is really mysterious!

No wonder Yang Jian said that this is a great opportunity!

Li Anran's eyes lit up, and he urged: "Quick! Continue! Next one!"

Green Snake: "???" What do you think of me!

The green snake gritted its teeth with hatred, but it had no choice but to hold the treasure bag in its hand and recite the formula again.

hum!
A slender green grass grew out of the Hundred Treasures Bag, and then it was cut off, and the long leaves floated in front of Li Anran.

The green snake said: "If you have the guts, stick this leaf behind your back."

Li Anran took the leaves, put his hands behind his back, and asked, "What's the name of this thing?"

"It's called a little tail!"

The green snake recited the formula again, and a flower bloomed above the broken grass. The flower floated out and turned into a big copper hat full of spikes in mid-air.

"It's called a big hat!"

hum!
The small tail shone with crystal light, and the big hat was good at facing the wind, facing Li Anran as a hood.

"Put on the little tail and put on the big hat, your magic weapon is really more interesting than the other! Unfortunately, it is useless to me!"

Li Anran didn't even try to dodge. He just swung his gun and smashed the big hat above, and pulled out the small tail used for positioning on the back, crumpling it into a ball.

The green snake was completely panicked, and repeated the movement formula: "One, two, three, four, five, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, change!"

The light of the Hundred Treasure Kit was flowing, and all kinds of weapons were continuously produced, flying towards Li Anran with thousands of flashes of cold light, while she turned around and ran away.

However, Li Anran had Ruyi in his hand, and he blew out all the weapons in one breath, freezing all these weapons into ice cubes.

Li Anran said lightly: "If you don't stand still, you will be the next one to freeze!"

The green snake naturally refused to stop.

next second.

A cold wind blew past, freezing all the stones around her into an ice wall, trapping her in the middle.

Li Anran said: "Snake demon, your Qiantongshen is used to deal with the powerful red gourd, the unhealthy wind is used to deal with the orange gourd with clairvoyant eyes and ears, the small shoes are used to deal with the invulnerable yellow gourd, and the big pot of rice is used to deal with fire. Green gourd, the venom is used to deal with green gourds that use water, and the small tail and big hat are used to deal with blue gourds that can be invisible, so what about this purple gourd? How are you going to deal with it?"

The green snake didn't answer this question, and begged bitterly: "My lord, what benefits will you gain by helping those gourd babies suppress us? Why don't you join hands with us to capture those seven gourd babies and refine them into seven gourd babies?" Xin Dan! After eating, not only can you live forever, but you can also gain the innate supernatural powers of those gourd cubs, why not do it!"

Li Anran was slightly taken aback.

Yup!

How much benefit can I gain by suppressing these snake demons!
Those gourd babies have such terrifying talents, if I can refine them into Qixin Pills and get their talents, even if I don't have a record of punishment, I can break through to Daluo Jinxian!

Seeing Li Anran staying where he was, the snake demon was overjoyed, and continued to shout: "My lord, those gourd babies are still immature, and it's the best time to deal with them! As long as we join hands with them, we won't win at all..."

call!
A gust of cold wind blew, and the green snake was frozen in the ice.

When it came, there was still a bewildered expression of joy on his face.

"Is this how you deal with Purple Gourd? Break it from the inside?"

Li Anran's eyes were filled with divine light, and the Acacia kungfu was running. When he pinched his thumb and forefinger half an inch in front of his eyebrows out of thin air, he actually pulled out a moth the size of a grain of rice.

This worm looks no different from an ordinary moth, but it is actually a magic weapon refined by the green snake through a bag of treasures, which can corrupt people's minds and arouse people's greedy desires.

The method is very clever, and the magic weapon is also very subtle, and it is possible for an ordinary golden fairy to be tricked
However, when it is placed in front of Li Anran, who has practiced the Acacia Kungfu, it is a little tricky.

Not to mention, Li Anran still knows what is hidden behind this gourd baby, how could he be persuaded by this green snake!
slap!

Li Anran gently squeezed the aphid in his hand to death, and an indescribable wonderful feeling suddenly rose in his heart, as if he had an epiphany, and also as if he was enlightened.

He sat down cross-legged, and silently performed the nine-turn Yuan Gong.

The Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong, which usually only speeds up when fighting with life and death, is now running at a speed that is dozens of times faster than when fighting with life and death, over and over again.

rumbling rumbling—

Li Anran's divine splendor bloomed all over his body, as gorgeous as a rainbow, and bursts of roars erupted from his body like the opening of the world.

His spirit seemed to be burning and boiling, and wisps of sunlight surged, interweaving the heavens and the earth into a piece of golden light, which was dazzling.

The whole process lasted for several hours, and the haze of sunlight began to gradually fade away, a little bit absorbed into Li Anran's body, the surroundings returned to calm, the brilliance was restrained, and disappeared.

Not long after, Li Anran woke up and turned around, his eyes were shining brightly, the moment he stood up, the world seemed to be shaken, shaking twice.

"Mysterious and mysterious, the door of all wonders, is this the Xuanxian?"

Li Anran felt the changes in her body.

His nine-turn Yuan Gong has already completed the fifth turn, and his cultivation has also broken through to the realm of Xuanxian.

"It's time to end."

Li Anran didn't waste any more time. With a wave of his right hand, a gust of wind roared, and the snake spirit sisters and scorpion spirit flew back to the top of the mountain.

Li Anran made such a big commotion before, whether it was the gourd babies, the old man and the pangolin, they all heard it, but because they were too far away to see it, they only heard a rough idea from Erwa.

At this time, seeing that Li Anran really captured the three monsters back, they were all ecstatic.

The old man was even more delighted: "That's great! Lord Tianshen caught these three monsters, and the folks can move back again!"

Li Anran asked: "How to deal with these three goblins?"

The gourd babies said in unison: "Naturally, we must get rid of them, and we can't let them harm the world again."

"Okay." Li Anran was no longer polite, and with a wave of his right hand, a golden light swept across, directly crushing the ice cube and the three fairies inside.

However, in the next second, their shattered bodies regrouped in one place, turning into a hazy mist.

When the mist dissipated, two snakes, one black and one green, and a scorpion appeared on the ground, and then turned into those three monsters again, and all the wounds on their bodies were healed.

The three monsters obviously didn't know that there was such a thing, they were stunned, and when they came back to their senses, they were about to escape in a gust of evil wind.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

Thunderclouds surged in the void, and three thunderbolts of the purple sky descended on the head, splitting the evil wind and turning the three monsters into coke.

But, next second.

The coke turned into a mist again.

This time Li Anran did not wait for the mist to disperse, and cast the spell again, triggering the Zixiao Shenlei to continuously chop on the mist.

But that cloud of mist seemed not to exist in reality, and even the roar of thunder could not disperse it at all.

After a while, the mist cleared, and the three monsters appeared in front of everyone safely and soundly.

"What, what's going on here?" The old man and the pangolin were startled by the scene before them.

"Let me try!" Siwa yelled, spit out a mouthful of Samadhi real fire, and directly burned the three monsters to ashes.

But, also to no avail.

But in an instant, the ashes turned into mist, and the three monsters came back to life for the third time.

Unwilling to be reconciled, Siwa spewed out another mouthful of real fire, burning the three monsters to death again.

But in the next second, the three monsters were revived again, as if they were immortal.

Li Anran's heart moved, and he took out the colorful lotus platform given to him by the mountain god.

hum!
The seven-color lotus platform emitted a vast glow, drifting into the air, sucking in the cloud of mist, and spraying it on the roots of the gourd vines.

Boom, boom, boom...

In the sky, seven-color lightning roared, red orange yellow green blue blue purple.

Every lightning flashed, the corresponding gourd fell to the ground, exploded, and a gourd baby was picked out of it.

The seven gourd babies have exactly the same appearance, only the gourd on the head and the color of the body are different.

Afterwards, the seven gourd babies flew up and stood on the seven-color lotus platform like an arhat, transforming into a seven-color mountain peak.

Brilliance flowed one after another, and the seven-colored mountain peaks gradually dissipated, replaced by a middle-aged man in red, with long flowing hair and a handsome face.

He sat lazily on the lotus platform, with his left leg bent and his right leg straight, his arms casually resting on his knees, wishfully placed by his side, the brocade pouch hanging at his waist, the rigid and soft Yin-Yang sword on his back, and a sword hanging on his chest. Palm-sized bronze mirror.

It was only at this time that Li Anran realized that the Ruyi, the Kit, and the Hard and Soft Yin-Yang Sword in his hands had disappeared at some point.

A sound of insects chirping, birds calling and beasts roaring came to my ears.

Li Anran looked left and right.

The surrounding scene is completely different.

The Calabash Mountain disappeared, the barren mountains disappeared, and the corpses of monsters all over the mountains and plains disappeared.

Instead, there are green grass and flowers everywhere, and the river flows down from the mountain like a jade belt, passing through the dense jungle, and all kinds of animals live in it, leisurely.

Everything before it seemed like an illusion.

hallucinations? !
Li Anran's pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly thought that someone in his previous life analyzed that the oblique moon and three-star cave in Fangcun Mountain of Lingtai pointed to a "heart".

They don't exist, or don't exist in reality.

It only exists in the monkey's mind, in a single thought.

The monkey was looking for immortals to visit Taoism. Tired of walking in Hezhou, Xiniu, he fell asleep and had a dream.

But Patriarch Bodhi entered the cave in his heart through a dream, and preached for him.

Li Anran didn't know whether these were true or not, but he was obviously in the mind of the ancestor Hongyun before.

The so-called snake essence, green snake, and scorpion essence!

It's just the evil thoughts in Patriarch Hongyun's heart!
That's why they can't kill them no matter what!

Seven gourd babies!
It is the kindness in the heart of the ancestor Hongyun!
Flawed kindness!

The so-called subduing demons and eliminating demons is just a collision between the good and evil thoughts of Patriarch Hongyun.

To be more precise, he is using evil thoughts to temper good thoughts.

Let him not be like before, a foolish and rotten good person, who is schemed by others without knowing it, and who is attacked without defense.

The teaching represented by Li Anran is Yuanshi Tianzun's help to Hongyun Patriarch, and the kindness of the outside world to Hongyun Patriarch, helping him to strengthen good thoughts, subdue evil thoughts, and be reborn after calamity!

When good and evil are resolved in the heart, and the winner and loser are determined, the ancestor of Hongyun will be reborn naturally.

The old man and the pangolin stared blankly at the man. After a while, they woke up like a dream and knelt down on the ground, crying bitterly: "Master! You are finally back!"

A faint golden light shone from them, turning into two boys.

"Fool." The man in red smiled lightly, raised his palm slightly, helped the two boys up, and asked, "Would you like to worship me as a teacher?"

The two boys were stunned, with ecstasy on their faces, and quickly fell to the ground: "See Master."

hum!
Ripples appeared in the void, and Zhen Yuanzi and Guanyin appeared in front of everyone.

Zhen Yuanzi could not restrain the joy on his face, he bowed and said: "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, on his return from calamity."

The man in red looked a lot more solemn, got up and saluted, "If it wasn't for the help of Dao brother, Hong Yun would have fallen into the Infernal Asura way hundreds of millions of years ago, and would have ceased to exist."

Zhen Yuanzi said with a smile: "When you and I met, the world was just opened, and the avenue was not complete yet. I help you like the left hand helps the right hand, so why thank you!"

"Good." Ancestor Hongyun didn't say any more polite words, the most important thing is to keep this kindness in mind.

Zhen Yuanzi said: "Fellow Taoist Hongyun, this is Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva from Mount Luojia in the South China Sea. I have come to protect you according to the decree of the Tathagata Buddha."

Only then did Guanyin Bodhisattva come forward and salute: "Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Hongyun for his return from calamities! My Buddha Tathagata suppressed Patriarch Minghe in the Nine Nether Blood Sea, and specially asked the poor monk to come here to wait for the return of fellow Taoist!"

"Excuse me." Ancestor Hongyun sarcastically said in his tone, but just for Zhen Yuanzi's sake.

He suffered so many things, in the final analysis, it was the disaster of giving up his seat to the Taoist guide in Zixiao Palace.

However, after his accident, Yin Zhunti acted as if nothing happened, and had no intention of avenging him at all.

Ancestor Hongyun met Yin Zhunti, and his hatred for Western religion was not much less than that for Kunpeng.

After Hongyun Patriarch finished speaking, he didn't want to pay attention to Avalokitesvara, looked at Li Anran and asked, "Would you like to worship me as your teacher?"

Li Anran was taken aback, she never thought that Patriarch Hongyun would say such a sentence suddenly.

He was stunned for a moment and forgot to answer.

Zhen Yuanzi was a little anxious, and hurriedly passed on the voice to the ancestor Hongyun: "Daoist friend, this son has a chaotic body and countless lives. He is a person who should be robbed. If you accept him as a disciple, I am afraid that you will be implicated into the world." During the catastrophe."

Unexpectedly, the ancestor Hongyun's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his interest in Li Anran became stronger.

"Brother Zhenyuan, I backed down a little bit when I tried to be kind to others, and I couldn't escape the catastrophe of the world, but so what? When it was time to enter the catastrophe, I still entered the catastrophe. If it wasn't for the help of fellow Taoists, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have a ray of remnant soul." Can't stay either."

"Brother Dao, my strength was not as good as Kunpeng Minghe back then. Now that hundreds of millions of years have passed, my strength has not advanced but retreated, but they have improved by how much. I want to break the cause and effect with them, and do not rely on the power of this catastrophe." , how can it be done? Brother Dao please complete it.”

Zhen Yuanzi hesitated to speak.

I really want to say "When is it time to repay the wronged people".

But I also know that if such a big cause and effect cannot be resolved, Hong Yun may never be able to understand his thoughts.

Seeing that Zhen Yuanzi stopped talking, Patriarch Hongyun knew that the matter was over, and continued to ask: "Li Anran, would you like to worship me as a teacher?"

Li Anran said: "Senior, forgive me! This junior has no plans to become a teacher!"

Patriarch Hongyun: "???"

Guanyin:"???"

Zhen Yuanzi: "???"

Two boys: "???" Did I hear wrong?

Ancestor Hongyun's expression froze, and he also wondered if his ears had heard it wrong, and asked, "What did you say?"

Li Anran said: "Forgive me senior, this junior has no plans to become a teacher."

Patriarch Hongyun was a great power in ancient times, and he was a guest of Zixiao Palace back then, worshiping him as a teacher has countless benefits.

But in the same way, he will also be implicated by the cause and effect of Hongyun Patriarch.

Li Anran has a system. He only needs to accumulate experience points to improve his cultivation. By watching the life of prisoners and drawing extra rewards, he can learn various skills, spells and even natal supernatural powers.

He didn't need to find a father for himself, and he was obviously in trouble.

To worship Hongyun Patriarch as a teacher, for ordinary monks, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

But for him, the harm outweighs the good.

"Li Anran, do you know who the person in front of you is?"

Before Hongyun Patriarch had finished speaking, Zhen Yuanzi quit.

He didn't want Patriarch Hongyun to accept Li Anran as an apprentice, but it's another thing for Li Anran to refuse to be a teacher.

Li Anran said: "Although I don't know the identity of this senior, but he can be friends with Great Immortal Zhenyuan, he should be a famous senior power in the Three Realms."

Zhen Yuanzi was surprised: "Since you guessed it, why did you refuse?"

Li Anran didn't make excuses, but said bluntly: "My reluctance to be a teacher has nothing to do with this senior's identity."

Zhen Yuanzi waited for a while, seeing that Li Anran didn't want to say the specific reason, he couldn't ask further.

"Since you don't want to, forget it."

Ancestor Hongyun saw it very openly, waved his hand, revealed the matter, put Ruyi, Hundred Treasures Bag and Magic Mirror in front of him, and said: "Choose one of these three things!

Li Anran was startled, and hurriedly refused: "This junior has already benefited greatly from coming here this time, I really dare not accept any more rewards from senior."

Ancestor Hongyun said: "Poverty is able to survive until now, thanks to the Sanguang Shenshui bestowed by the Yuqing sage. My magic weapon is to thank you for helping me overcome the catastrophe this time, and it is also to repay the karma of the Yuqing sage. If you think I am ashamed to accept it, so I will hand it over to Yang Jian."

Li Anran couldn't refuse, so he could only accept: "Then... the treasure bag!"

"it is good."

Ancestor Hongyun casually threw the bag of treasures to Li Anran, and said, "Today's matter has come to an end. I have been trapped here for so many years, so I should go out and see the three worlds now. Zhen Yuan Brother Dao, farewell!"

After all, Patriarch Hongyun disappeared together with the two boys beside him.
