I want to embrace the moon for nine days

Chapter 428: Embracing the bright moon and ending forever, the smell of wine and strange rain

"Has he broken through to the ninth level already?"

Su Hanshan looked at Master Fan's receding figure and felt a little envious.

Although he could comment on the path of the Pure Fox Ancestor, his own path had not really reached that stage after all. After taking those fruits, he was still very curious about what it would feel like to have reached that level.

"Old people always sigh about the world and have many inexplicable insights."

Zhang Yannian smiled and said, "A young man like me can't do that. I am also born with a tough temper and not so sentimental. I'd better be honest and come and observe the battlefield of these two supreme beings."

Su Hanshan nodded, looked at the stone pillars and purple stars in the air, and released all his sensing and observation methods.

In an instant, the scene in front was like peeling off layers of thin paper, revealing a strange light and color that was extremely similar, but clearer by countless times.

Between heaven and earth, there are things that even ghosts and gods cannot see, such as the tracks of the Tao and the tracks of reason, with thousands of threads, spreading and moving like raindrops and wind threads.

Those eight stone pillars are the deepest symbol of Emperor Qin's Fist.

Pillars build up the heaven and earth.

In ancient times, there were already strong men who created the false concept of "Heavenly Pillar". Since then, two major schools of thought have emerged around the Heavenly Pillar.

One is to cultivate a pillar of heaven to support the heaven and earth. For every ten feet that the pillar of heaven is long, the heaven and earth are ten feet high and wide. It is majestic and endless, carrying all things.

The two of them broke the pillars of heaven. Once the pillars of heaven were broken, all things tilted, the universe was unbalanced, disasters continued, the pillars of heaven were completely broken, heaven and earth closed, and the world was destroyed.

When Buzhou Palace was first established, it was the culmination of the Way of the Pillar of Heaven.

However, the boxing style of "Honghuang Explosion" goes a step further based on the Way of Tianzhu and points directly to eternity.

These eight pillars do not represent the meaning of bearing, but rather represent restraint.

The laws of heaven and earth do not exist evenly everywhere. In some extreme environments in the universe, certain laws do not apply.

Therefore, if you only live in a corner, even if you can fully understand the laws of nature in this place, you cannot say that you have appreciated the whole picture of the world.

The universe is expanding, and these areas containing different laws will become farther and farther apart from each other, making cultivation more and more difficult.

The existence of the eight celestial pillars is to hold back the "sky" that is flying higher and higher, and to hold back the "earth" that is descending lower and lower.

To summarize, all the laws of heaven and earth are reflected in these eight pillars, which are more closely connected to each other and cannot be separated.

More and more things are connected to the stone pillar, and when it is finally destroyed, the scope of impact will be larger.

However, Emperor Qin's boxing, when it comes to breaking the pillar of heaven, is not like the general pillar-breaking school, which pursues the power of destruction.

On the contrary, he wanted to use this step to prove something that cannot be destroyed.

The sky changes infinitely, to the extreme of nothingness; the earth changes infinitely, to the extreme of substance; the eight pillars of heaven are the extreme of order; the pillars of heaven are all broken, to the extreme of disorder.

Amidst all the extreme differences, there are still similarities. There are some things that have never changed from beginning to end, throughout birth and death. Among all things, they are the things most likely to transcend birth and death.

Once you reach that step, you will be able to see the true nature of the heavenly limits and demonic calamities, and only then will you have a chance to break these constraints and achieve the ultimate.

"The Qin Emperor's boxing technique seeks the ultimate truth that goes through all life and death and is carried through to the end. The Chu Emperor's sword technique seeks the eternal meaning that travels through the eternal time and remains brilliant."

Zhang Yannian said with emotion, "What they both pursue is actually the same thing. The true meanings of the two supreme martial arts are really amazingly similar."

"No wonder some people think that after the establishment of Da Chu, in a sense, it is not the opposite of Da Qin, but the successor of Da Qin. It's just that the world situation is so different that the process and means are so different."

He observed these two supreme methods and gained a lot of insights, and his aura became more and more refined.

It seemed that the Grand Master had already had the psychological expectation of breaking through to the ninth level, and left the purple fire to Zhang Yannian.

The purple and green Tushita divine fire were all on him, even though they were divided into two major fire species and stored in the two farthest corners of the secret realm. This made the general's aura somewhat restless, and it seemed that he had difficulty balancing the operation of the two types of fire species.

Now that his aura was purer, it seemed that even the ups and downs of the two flames had naturally subsided.

"The Qin Emperor's boxing method is indeed a pursuit of convergence and truth. He is willing to shatter the prehistoric world just to get a glimpse of the ultimate. But I don't think so about the Chu Emperor's swordsmanship."

Su Hanshan's gaze shifted from the eight stone pillars that were about to break to the purple star.

"Although his sword seeks eternity, it is more of a transcendental thing."

"Eternal Thunder Sky is above all things. Even time cannot touch his existence, so his brilliance cannot be diminished."

"When this sword technique is truly perfected, no matter how far the distance is, no matter how loud the noise is, everything will not be damaged in the slightest wherever it passes. Only the target will be hurt by the sword, and nothing else will come into contact with the sword light."

Su Hanshan's eyes were reflected with purple starlight, and the bright starlight seemed to be moving in his eyes, and he expressed his thoughts in detail.

“No matter whether the person holding the knife is doing so out of arrogance or kindness, in terms of the actual results, leaving everything unharmed and shattering everything are ultimately worlds apart, and can even be diametrically opposed paths.”

Zhang Yannian did not refute.

The two of them are on good terms, and they are not arguing about a specific method now, so it is difficult to say who is right or wrong. They are just seeking enlightenment together and each has their own views.

Not only do the two not have to argue, they can even learn from each other.

"According to what you said, Emperor Chu's swordsmanship does have some Taoist connotations of the supreme inaction."

Zhang Yannian thought for a moment and shook his head, "I can still only see what I learned before. Maybe it's because my training is mainly based on military science, which is not as broad as yours."

Su Hanshan smiled and said, "It may not just be because of the cultivation school, it may also be because of the realm."

"Your realm is higher than mine, so you are at a disadvantage at this time."

Zhang Yannian was puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

"You have already cultivated to the Great Void Secret Realm and mastered four immortal magical powers. You are only one short of completing the Zhou Tian. At this moment, your original heart, your Dao heart, is most eager to complete this one Dao first. The rest may as well be discussed later. So now, you can only seek purity and unity."

Su Hanshan explained, "I have only just mastered an immortal magical power, so I still have a lot of room to choose from."

"Because the Liuyu method has reached a new level and created the Xuanyuan Wanwei Sutra, I have experienced many other immortal magical powers in advance, and I can draw inferences from other things, and my inspiration is flowing."

"So when I was observing the two supreme laws, all the things naturally flowed into my heart. It was not the time to make a decision yet."

After hearing this, Zhang Yannian remained silent.

He carefully experienced his own Great Void Secret Realm and the operation of the four immortal magical powers, and compared it with Su Hanshan's words. The more he compared, the more he felt that this was really the case.

"I see. To comprehend these two supreme methods, not only is the threshold extremely high, but one must also know when to stop. Otherwise, it will disrupt one's progress in cultivation."

Zhang Yannian suddenly realized, "No wonder Master Baoxu didn't let them all stay and try to comprehend it. No wonder the old master came but didn't even look at the battlefield before leaving."

He stared at the battlefield for a while, and simply stopped looking at the purple stars and only looked at the eight pillars of heaven. After a while, he smiled slightly, as if drinking nectar, and turned and left.

Su Hanshan stopped talking and stopped just watching. He took out a gourd of fruit wine and drank while watching.

Several figures appeared on the hillside outside the depression.

Yu Duxing, the eldest senior brother in charge of Tiandu Liaoyuan Peak, was also among them. He had already cultivated into the secret realm of the void, but he was very respectful to an old man with red hair and red beard beside him, and always lagged behind him by half a body length.

The red-haired old man was tall and fat, with thick hair and a very healthy complexion. He wore a golden and red brocade robe and held a small incense burner in his hand. He was none other than the Lord of Liaoyuan Peak.

On the other side, there was someone walking side by side with him. He was an old man with black hair, white eyebrows, a dignified face, and wearing a white fur coat. He was the master of Tiandu Immortal Mansion and Tianshi Peak.

"The new leader of Chunyang Peak is not only extremely powerful in combat, but also has profound secret techniques and a very high realm. He can even instruct an eighth-rank general."

The head of Liaoyuan Peak smiled and said, "Tianshi, those disciples you strongly recommended to inherit the Pure Yang Treasury, what realm are they in now?"

Tianshi said calmly: "You are so proud and forgetful that people who don't know would think that this Master of Chunyang Peak is your disciple."

The head of Liaoyuan Peak didn't care: "It seems that the subsequent inheritance of Pure Yang Xuan Yin was indeed sent out from our side. It is shameless to say that he is a disciple, but he is still willing to call my disciple Yun Tao his senior brother."

Tianshi took a deep breath and said, "You are lucky. In this regard, we are indeed inferior."

The leader of Liaoyuan Peak was very happy to see that he had surrendered. He laughed and said nothing more.

At that time, this group of people calculated that the founder's life span was coming to an end, and it would be difficult for Tiandu to remain in the Middle-earth during this round of catastrophe, so they gave up their ambition to preach and only wanted to make friends with all parties and be good at dealing with people so that they could move to the Southern Shenyi Continent in the future.

To say that this effort is forced by the situation and is to prepare for a rainy day in order to preserve the heritage is understandable, but some of the proposals are really excessive. If their proposals are really passed, the heritage preserved will not be the Tiandu Immortal Mansion.

The ancestor turned his attention to the affairs of the demon-conquering world and began to intervene in the outside world. He had already punished the two peak masters who attempted to tamper with the sect rules. As for the rest of these Tianshi and others, who had not lost their bottom line, the ancestor only reprimanded them lightly.

The leader of Liaoyuan Peak just wanted to piss them off and didn't really want to fight with them.

The Kunwu Peak Master next to him advised, "Alright, alright, the Grandmaster asked us to come in to comprehend the battle between the two supreme beings. If you quarrel here, won't you waste time and miss the opportunity?"

"good."

The leader of Tianshi Peak said, "We come to comprehend these two supreme methods. It would be great if we can gain something. But if we get more than just gains, but also interference, then it is just right to sharpen our fighting spirit."

"According to what the ancestor said, soon we will each lead a large number of projections of creatures from outside the realm and fight our way into the Abyss Realm. It is time to use the two great supreme techniques to sharpen our fighting spirit."

Speaking of this, he turned his head and looked at the master of Liaoyuan Peak.

"Old man Hong, why don't we compete to see who will be the first to open a permanent camp in the Abyss Realm, who will suffer the least number of casualties and gain the most?"

The Tianshi Peak inheritance incorporates the military training methods, with exquisite group battle formations, and is best at leading the crowd.

The leader of Liaoyuan Peak was not afraid. He shook the incense burner in his hand, sniffed the smoke, and agreed.

He had received news long ago that among the creatures outside the world, many could be considered disciples of Su Hanshan's new method, directly or indirectly.

The two major branches of the new Chunyang method, the Qiankun Qiyun and the Qihua Fengshui, in the Six Imperial Methods, are similar to the methods of Liaoyuan Peak.

When the Grandmaster is ready and Liaoyuan Peak goes to lead the people, he should first call on the two major branches to join in. With the cooperation between the upper and lower branches, they will surely be able to accomplish the task quickly.

They were betting here, with several peak masters nearby as witnesses. Some also came in to join in the bet, but they all tacitly agreed not to disturb Su Hanshan.

The sun in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum has turned into backup fuel for the Purple-Blue Tushita Divine Fire and was taken away by General Shenwei.

But there is still a waning moon, which can indicate the arrival of night. When there is a moon, it is night, and when there is no moon, it is day.

After more than a dozen days and nights, Su Hanshan's aura suddenly fluctuated violently.

He looked up at the moon, and what he saw was a waning moon, but it seemed as if he could see through the waning moon, through the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, and see the moon on earth.

The bright moon is in the sky, rhythmically moving heaven and earth.

Pulsars are one type of stellar bodies that are condensed after the life of the sun's star ends.

Originally, this pulsating moon in the human world represented a kind of death. But death was just the beginning. From then on, there was this moon in the human world that shines through eternity, allowing billions of living beings to feel the pulse and worship the moon to become demons.

Even death is rebirth, life and death seem to be the same thing.

The pulsating rhythm can bring endless illusory auroras, but when you trace it back to the source, the moon that has gone through life and death has always existed.

"Smash all illusions and cross the impermanence of life and death..."

Su Hanshan sat cross-legged on the ground, with his hands raised to the sky, and his palms gradually closed to a certain distance.

The arc of the waning moon in the sky is so consistent with the arc in his palms.

"Hold the bright moon and live forever."

The master of Tianshi Peak has practiced "Tianshi Drinking the Moon Method", a technique that originated from the demon race and was transformed and optimized by humans. It commands the essence of the nine-day bright moon to flow forward and backward, and cultivates the true water of Taiyin, which boils all directions.

At this time, he was the first to feel something strange and looked up.

Outside the nine heavens, there was a small spot of light, which gradually changed from dark to bright, from faint to thick, and finally became a beam of light, shining in from outside the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum and illuminating the waning moon.

That waning moon was originally formed by condensing hundreds of miles of lunar jade. It had been abandoned for five hundred years, but now it was being completed bit by bit under the illumination of that beam of light.

Su Hanshan raised his hands towards the sky, as if embracing the moon. He watched the bright moon gradually become fuller. His eyes became softer, and he smiled peacefully, feeling genuinely happy.

The Lord of Liaoyuan Peak and others also stood up and watched.

They were not deceived by the cool and beautiful picture, and their eyes looking towards the sky were full of amazement and admiration.

The Qin Emperor's Mausoleum no longer has the shadow of the Qin Emperor, the Seal of the Eternal Supreme, the Sun of the Emperor's Mausoleum, the essence of the nine dragon veins, the two almost restored Xuan Emperors and the gods of the wild, and the powerful people who have been granted titles are no longer there.

However, the part of the forbidden technique used by the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum to isolate the inside and the outside was restored to its complete state by the seven generations of ancestors.

The complexity of those forbidden techniques alone is enough to trap an eighth-level expert who strayed in for ten days or half a month.

Su Hanshan sat in the Mausoleum of the Qin Emperor and called out to the Taiyin Essence. He was able to allow the Taiyin Essence to break through all the obstructions of the forbidden spells and destroy all illusions until it penetrated in.

What a terrifying penetrating power!

This is just his call from a distance.

If he were to take this power of the bright moon into his hands, put it in his fist, and punch out, this penetrating ability would definitely be greatly improved!

"No, not just penetration."

The Lord of Tianshi Peak gazed at the moon over the Imperial Mausoleum.

Those newly formed icy crystals, nourished by the essence of Taiyin, are not pure and flawless. There are some strange phantom marks inside, which are surprisingly similar to the forbidden style of the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum.

"When this energy penetrates the forbidden spells, it also transforms the layers of forbidden spells it touches into part of its own pulse, and finally imprints it on the target!"

This is Su Hanshan’s second immortal magical power, embracing the moon forever.

Whether it's me or the enemy, I hope that when we meet the bright moon, we will be transformed into eternal marks.

But whether this is an active achievement or a passive achievement is the difference between life and death.

Although the Lord of Liaoyuan Peak and others had known a lot about Su Hanshan for a long time, this was the first time they witnessed Su Hanshan's magical powers with their own eyes.

They waited for a long time, and Su Hanshan had already put down his hand and took out another gourd of wine.

He did not take the full moon for himself, nor did he stand up.

Su Hanshan actually looked towards the battlefield again.

"he……"

Yu Duxing whispered, "Is he going to comprehend a third immortal magical power in succession?!"

Su Hanshan was indeed thinking about the third option, and he had some vague ideas in his mind.

Supreme... Transcendent... But it is still difficult for him to reach the Supreme state of being transcendent and harmless to all things by the way of thunder, so let's change his thinking.

Not by thunder, but by magnetism.

With the invisible and silent magnetic force, one can achieve the supreme transcendent state, the supreme compassion, the supreme compassionate sky, the supreme magnetic sky...

He was in high spirits, and this long thought lasted for several days and nights.

It’s a pity that he couldn’t truly develop the third magical power on this battlefield.

Su Hanshan stood up and poured the gourd of wine in his hand forward as a token of sacrifice.

The purple stars were fading, and the eight stone pillars were becoming more and more illusory.

The imprints of these two supreme methods have always been in conflict, and now the time has finally come for them to be annihilated.

"Everyone, we have been meditating together for a long time, but we have not yet formally met."

Su Hanshan turned around and walked towards Liaoyuan Peak Master and others with a smile.

Unexpectedly, he had just taken a few steps when the voice of the Seventh Generation Master rolled down from the sky.

"Hanshan, come here!"

Su Hanshan's figure did not seem to move, but was rising rapidly. The light and shadow passed by, and in an instant, he had left the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, left the cauldron, and came to the Taiyi Peak Hall.

The seventh generation ancestor was looking at the boundless auspicious cloud in his hand with a serious expression.

Su Hanshan was stunned: "What happened?"

"Not sure yet, maybe it's a good thing."

The Seventh Generation Patriarch said, "As I kept running the Boundless Celebration Cloud, absorbing the aura of other worlds, pondering my magical powers, and preparing to create a basic plate, I felt an extremely weak, yet familiar resonance in a certain unfamiliar realm."

"Since this Boundless Celebration Cloud and the Heavenly Limit have the same origin, perhaps there are other existences similar to this Boundless Celebration Cloud."

The seventh generation ancestor held the auspicious cloud carefully and blew a breath. The auspicious cloud surged endlessly, and countless bridge shadows changed and reorganized, appearing and disappearing.

Su Hanshan stared at it for a while and felt a little dizzy. He couldn't help but lower his eyelids and pinched his brows.

"Grandmaster wants the Tai Chi Seal to help?"

"exactly."

There was a bright blue-gold light in the eyes of the Seventh Generation Patriarch, and his fairy-like figure had a tendency to grow up. He said, "Based on Qingyun's calculation of that little connection, it is still a little short. With the help of the Tai Chi Mark, perhaps it can be accomplished."

"But I feel that thing is more active than when Wujie Qingyun was in the Xuanyuan dimension. I don't know what the world it is in is like now. If you go there, you must be careful."

An idea flashed through Su Hanshan's mind. It seemed that he could only let his bronze clone go to attend the full moon banquet at home for the time being, and then he could deal with it again when he came back.

Although the clone is also himself, there are some things he still wants his real body to participate in.

"I have traveled through time so many times, but only last time did I encounter a auspicious cloud. This kind of opportunity must not be missed!"

Su Hanshan answered as he stretched out his left hand and pressed it on the boundless celebration cloud. He used all his strength to actively push the Tai Chi mark.

"start!!"

The two of them shouted at the same time.

Su Hanshan's figure suddenly disappeared and sank into the boundless celebration cloud. In a flash, he didn't know how many times his position had changed and his coordinates had rotated.

After a long time, he finally found a connection and flashed away to a very far distance, leaving the human world in the abyss.

The light and shadows all around were blurry and indistinguishable, and the flashing lights seemed endless.

It was not until a violent wave of light burst out in front of him and Su Hanshan was immersed in it that he felt the stable void of heaven and earth.

He appeared in the deep mountains and old forests. It was raining. The sound of rain hitting the leaves, far and near, was like dense drumbeats.

But the place where Su Hanshan appeared was next to an old tree with twisted roots. The tree was lush and leafy, so not much rain could hit it directly. There were even many dry spots on the trunk.

He supported himself on the tree trunk with one hand, his face turned slightly pale, and after enduring for a while, he still choked and coughed a few times.

For the first time, he used the cooperation of Wujie Qingyun to leave the boundary with a clear destination.

Su Hanshan had a very uncomfortable experience.

The time he spent wandering around in Qingyun trying to find his way made him feel annoyed and nauseous. It was a kind of discomfort at the level of spiritual perception.

However, with his current physical body, he couldn't cough out any filth, but only coughed out a breath of light green wine smell, which sprayed at the roots of the tree.

"breathe……"

The secret realm in Su Hanshan's body started to operate, connecting to the origin of the void. He breathed in and out slowly a few times, and only then did he feel better.

The smell of alcohol that he exhaled was actually a self-mixed magic wine, mixed with the aura of his internal organs' cultivation. It fell on the roots of the tree, giving the old tree great nourishment.

The leaves of the entire tree fell off and regenerated in an instant, and this happened nine times in a row. The new leaves all had a jade-like luster.

There was a popping sound at the root of the tree, and a huge colorful Ganoderma lucidum grew.

Dozens of miles away, in front of a shrine.

An old man with disheveled hair and wearing an old gray scholar's robe was lighting an incense stick as yellow as mud. He stood in front of the door and looked out into the rain.

After the smoke from the incense stick floated out, it did not dissipate even when there was a rainstorm, but its direction kept changing, like a snake twisting its body, and it was impossible to determine its direction.

Several men and women, young and old, including laymen, Taoists, and scholars, stood behind him with knives and swords, boxes on their backs, and sticks, waiting impatiently.

"Master, is there anything useful in this mountain?"

The disheveled old man was calm and composed: "It should be..."

The smoke suddenly stagnated, then rushed out at a very fast speed, extending straight to somewhere in the forest.
