Prehistoric: Twin lotuses with parallel stems

Thick thunderclouds covered an area of ​​tens of thousands of miles, obscuring the sky and the sun, making the day as dark as night.

The wandering streaks of lightning were like snakes and dragons, carrying with them a vast and majestic aura that shocked all living things and inspired awe.

The center of the thundercloud was located above a red cliff.

On the cliff, a spiritual vine stretches out its branches and leaves, breathing in the spiritual essence of heaven and earth, flashing with fairy light, and is extraordinary and magical. Its breath makes all evil and filthy things retreat, and makes all living beings feel fear of it.

Lightning flashed across the sky and fell, submerging the spiritual vine in the lightning, undergoing baptism and transformation.

The movement here alarmed many practitioners, and they were shocked when they saw this huge thunder tribulation.

They could see that this was a thunder tribulation in disguise.

However, the scale of this thunder tribulation was nothing like the emergence of a demon, but more like a cultivator's tribulation of becoming an immortal.

No, even the calamity of becoming an immortal cannot compare to this.

They saw the seven-colored glazed light flashing in the lightning, and the branches and leaves that stood still despite the thunder.

Under such a terrifying thunder tribulation, the creatures undergoing the tribulation are not only safe and sound, but are also absorbing the power of creation and the essence of heaven and earth from the thunder tribulation, swallowing it as a tonic.

All cultivators know that they must be respectful of thunder tribulations.

Although this is a rumor that has not been verified, many cultivators believe that the heavenly calamity has spirits and that provoking the heavenly calamity may very likely bring about additional heavenly punishment.

There have been cases where talented practitioners died suddenly due to heavenly calamities. It was said that the abnormal movement of the heavenly calamity was caused when they were trying to overcome the calamity.

As to the exact cause of the unusual movement, it cannot be confirmed, but many great cultivators believe that it was caused by the person who was undergoing the tribulation provoking the natural tribulation.

The consensus in the spiritual cultivation community is that one should be respectful and honest in overcoming the tribulation. The more opportunistic one is, the more likely one is to incur divine punishment beyond the heavenly tribulation.

At this moment, the creature that had transformed itself to survive the tribulation dared to directly plunder the power of creation of the thunder tribulation, which could undoubtedly be regarded as a provocation to the heavenly tribulation.

However, until all ninety-nine and eighty-one mountain-like thunders had fallen, there was no sign of any change in the thunder tribulation.

It was peaceful from beginning to end, and its power never diminished in the slightest, but it also never increased suddenly.

Apart from its huge scale, it was just an ordinary thunder disaster, without any disturbances.

The lightning dissipated, and a figure appeared in the air. Fairy energy flowed around his body, and he transformed into a fairy.

Not only that, at this moment, the aura on his body was still rising rapidly, surpassing the realms of human immortals and earthly immortals, and going straight into the realm of celestial immortals, reaching perfection, and was blocked below the golden immortal.

However, many people with advanced cultivation can vaguely see that the realm of celestial immortals is not their limit. It is just that the golden immortals need to build their own path, so they have not crossed the chasm in one step and achieved immortality.

This made them even more shocked. What kind of creature was this? How could it become a celestial being as soon as it transformed into a human form? How many epochs had not seen this before?

Only those in ancient legends who were born with the Tao and were born as immortal golden immortals could be superior.

But that was something that happened countless years ago. Today, the innate energy of creation between heaven and earth has become thinner and is not as good as it was in the beginning, when heaven and earth evolved to perfection, order was established, and disasters gave birth to such creatures.

In their cognition, being born as an immortal is already the limit.

The woman was naturally beautiful, standing in the air in a black dress. Her eyes were like colored glass, faintly flowing with colorful colors. She looked around with a radiant look, but she had an awe-inspiring heroic air. The black dress made her look even more majestic and solemn.

It was just that the woman's somewhat casual appearance, as if she had just burped, destroyed the solemn feeling.

Against the backdrop of the simple and rustic black dress, the string of pendants hanging around the woman's waist is quite eye-catching. They are several small gourds of different colors, only an inch high, looking like jade but not jade, three on each side. As the woman walks, the pendants make crisp sounds, like the evening drum and morning bell, which have the power to shake the soul.

In addition, there is a pair of palm-sized jade books hanging around his waist, on which one can vaguely see some great Dao runes engraved.

This is not just an ordinary decoration, but they cannot figure out what the mystery is.

As everyone was astonished, they saw that as the lightning dissipated, two objects actually fell from it and hung in front of the woman.

A strange weapon that looks like a sword but is not a sword, and like a ruler but is not a ruler, and a jade plate with two ancient Taoist characters engraved on it.

Nv Qing looked at the two things in front of her, stunned for a moment, then looked up at the sky. The thunderclouds had dispersed, and the sky was clear and cloudless.

Nv Qing withdrew her gaze, but without much hesitation, she reached out and took the jade token in her hand. The two Taoist characters on it were the words "Qingqiu", nothing else.

After looking at it for a while, Nv Qing thought the jade pendant was quite beautiful, so she hung it around her waist, opposite the jade book. There were exactly four on each side, which looked quite symmetrical, saving her a lot of trouble.

She always felt uncomfortable hanging four jade books on one side and three on the other, but she also felt it was inappropriate to hang the pair of jade books separately. She had been struggling with this, but now it is just right.

She turned around, and the string of ornaments around her waist made crisp clashing sounds, as pleasant as the music of heaven.

The six gourds and a pair of jade books were presented by seven people who came here one after another.

Nu Qing didn't know who they were, and she didn't know why they gave them to her.

Those who gave it as a gift all said that it was returned to her.

However, the two jade books were not given to her. The man in a golden robe who called himself Di Jun said that the gourd could not be returned for the time being, so he temporarily mortgaged these two top-grade innate spiritual treasures and would return them later.

However, what impressed Nv Qing the most was not the man who gave her something unique, but a woman who claimed to be her uncle and touched her vines for a long time.

Although Nv Qing didn't understand why this happened, she felt that these gourds originally belonged to her.

Not only that, it seemed that in her subconscious, it was natural to accept gifts from others, and she didn't need to consider why others gave them to her. That was not something she should consider.

Nv Qing was shocked by her own subconscious thoughts. Such righteous thoughts always made her feel that there was something wrong, but she actually thought that this was the right thing to do.

Just like now, she accepted these two things of unknown origin so naturally, without ever thinking about why the two things appeared or whether she should accept them.

Before she had that thought, her hand had already reached out naturally and hung the jade pendant around her waist.

The ruler with a strange handle was put away because she felt it was not pretty enough, instead of hanging it around her waist as a decoration.

Seeing people coming from all directions, Nv Qing frowned and gently patted the jade book on her waist. A mysterious power spread out and enveloped her.

Then the avenue evolved, time and space changed, and Nv Qing's figure disappeared without any warning, and even her breath disappeared, and her divine power could not be seen, as if she had never appeared, and no trace could be found.

The River Chart and the Luo Shu, this pair of top-grade innate spiritual treasures, are more powerful than ordinary top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Moreover, unlike ordinary innate spiritual treasures, the River Map and the Luo Shu are not known for their offensive power. Their greatest mystery lies in the deduction and control of the great way of heaven and earth.

As the companion spiritual treasure of Emperor Jun, it was once used as a thing to suppress the luck of the demon clan. It carried the luck of the heaven and controlled the most powerful formation of the demon clan in the heaven, the Great Array of Stars, and was involved in many things.

Not only that, after the fall of the demon clan's heaven, Emperor Jun died and fell into silence. During this period, Nuwa lent these two innate spiritual treasures to her brother Fuxi.

As the Emperor of Mankind, Fuxi used this magical treasure to deduce the Eight Trigrams and evolve all dharmas, laying the foundation for the prosperity of all the great ways of the human race. He allowed the human race's path of cultivation to flourish based on the golden elixir method of the Taiqing Saint, and even opened up many acquired paths.

Although it is not as good as the Kongtong Seal, it can be regarded as a sacred object of the human race and can be compared with the Human Emperor Sword.

It once carried the fortune of the demon race, and also carried part of the fortune of the human race. It was successively held by the Demon Race's Heavenly Emperor and the Human Race's Human Emperor. Just in terms of reputation, few top-grade innate spiritual treasures can be compared with it.

But now, these two spiritual treasures fell into Nv Qing's hands, and she hung them around her waist as ornaments.

It must be said that Di Jun was very sincere and courageous, even lending out his own companion spirit treasure temporarily.

Unlike Nuwa who came to borrow it, Qingxuan never thought of lending this thing to his closed disciple.

However, the gourd is now in the hands of his son Lu Ya, and is related to his great way, so it is not convenient to return it for the time being.

Therefore, Di Jun chose to take out his Lingbao River Map and Luoshu for temporary exchange.

Wait until Lu Ya has made further progress on his own path and then return the gourd.

Nuqing herself will not be affected at the moment. Dijun believes that his River Map and Luoshu will definitely bring her greater benefits. Especially since these two things have once carried destiny, they will be of great help to Nuqing.

Qingxuan was indeed happy to see this happen. His fellow Taoists were all particular people and the gifts they gave were very thoughtful. They chose the most appropriate way to return them.

Whether she can digest all these benefits, build on them, and then cultivate another path depends on herself.

Qingxuan felt that the road had been paved like this, and if Nuqing still didn't fight back, he would have to find another way to train her, such as handing her over to Long Ji and letting Hunyuan Realm personally teach her.

I believe that Long Ji will not disregard her master's orders because of their old relationship and will do her best to fulfill her duties.

Of course, as a master, Qingxuan would not be stingy.

The others returned, but Qingxuan threw the precious treasure, the measuring ruler, to Nuqing.

Although Nv Qing had just been struck by a thunder tribulation, she became the second person in the Qingqiu lineage who was fortunate enough to experience a thunder tribulation, which was very difficult.

Qingxuan looked at Nuqing who escaped with the power of the River Map and Luoshu, and thought in his heart, but then his heart tightened, thinking that it was not good.

A pair of eyes were falling on him, and the owner of the gaze was none other than Nu Qing, the one from the Qingqiu lineage who was fortunate enough to experience the thunder tribulation.

Qingxuan pretended not to know the gazes behind him. He was reflecting that he had a very good memory and could not forget this incident.

Now, as I was thinking about it, I realized that the person involved had sensed it.

No, I have to find a time to seal this matter so that it won’t be mentioned inadvertently.

No, I can’t even think about it. It’s easy to get into trouble.

Qinglian looked at Qingxuan for a long time without moving away. Looking at someone pretending to be stupid, her smart and elegant eyes narrowed slightly and she smiled faintly.

"Qingxuan, it's been so long, have you thought of an excuse? Do you want me to help you think of one?"

Qing Xuan turned around and said blankly: "What excuse? Don't you know me? I never tell lies."

"Really? You said you never lied to me. Well, explain it to me too." Qinglian was unmoved and looked at Qingxuan with a squint.

"???"

Qingxuan thought about it and it seemed to be true. It was strange, why couldn't the debt be settled, but instead it kept getting bigger and bigger?

That's not right, Qinglian, when did you even care about such a small matter? This is not good, that's not cheating.

"Isn't that cheating? What is it?"

"..."

Long Ji blinked and shrank back, looking at Qingxuan and Qinglian, trying to eliminate her own presence. Although she felt that she had done nothing and had not deceived Master Qinglian, she still had her bad spiritual fruit snatched away by Master Qinglian.

But she knew everything that Master Qingxuan had done, and if Master Qinglian questioned her, she didn't know how to answer.

After looking around, Long Ji simply shifted her gaze and looked at the junior sister, especially the measuring ruler that the junior sister took away.

The little ruler didn't listen to the master, so it was thrown to the junior sister.

Maybe he threw the measuring ruler to his disciples because he felt it was too dangerous to keep it with him and was worried about being struck by lightning? Long Ji had never thought about this at all.

A woman in black clothes flew in the air, controlling the light of escape. She felt that the world was vast and everything in the world was so new and strange. The strings of ornaments around her waist jingled, beating out a brisk tune.

Nv Qing held the picked spiritual fruit in one hand and took a bite from time to time, but the taste was very ordinary, completely inferior to the elixir given to her by the young man who claimed to be her senior brother. What a pity.

Not far away, Nv Qing stopped her flight and looked at the town below.

The town is small, deserted and lacks vitality.

Nv Qing frowned, a hint of displeasure showing on her face. She sensed some aura that made her instinctively disgusted.

In broad daylight, the town was filled with the air of death. A thick, lingering resentment enveloped the place, making it chilly during the day. The chilly air mixed with the wind seemed to be lingering with wailing and resentment.

Nv Qing descended and landed outside the city. She threw away the spiritual fruit in her hand that tasted ordinary and walked into the city.

At his waist, gourds of different colors radiate fairy light, are filled with different Taoist rhymes, and flow with clear-cut rules of the Tao.

However, these great rules are gradually interweaving and merging into a whole new chapter of the Dao, forming a series of great runes that are imprinted on the River Map and Luo Shu.

The River Chart and the Luo Shu respectively carry two Taoist chapters, manifesting different Taoist rhymes.

However, these two Taoist chapters are not yet complete, and more Taoist rules are still in the making.

One book, "Ghost Law", carries a strong aura of the underworld and is connected to the power of the earth; the other book, "Heavenly Law", carries a strong aura of the way of heaven and is majestic and magnificent.

At this moment, "Ghost Law" flashed, and runes of the great way jumped and surrounded his body.

The woman who walked into the city was dressed in black, but it was like sunlight shining into the city, piercing through the gloom that enveloped the city. An alternative force of order spread out, cleansing the world, and making it pure and solemn.

The living are shrouded in order, and so are the dead.

When Nv Qing left, the seas and rivers became peaceful and the cold air disappeared.

The aura on her body also underwent slight changes. Different trends seemed to be affected by her and gathered on her body. At the same time, the chapter of "Ghost Law" also became slightly more complete.
