Chapter 39: The Auspicious Sign Appears, the Treasure Body Manifests
In the dead of night, all is quiet and still.
Tang Qing sat cross-legged in the house, his eyes slightly closed as he carefully sensed the condition of his physical body. His meridians were broken and disordered, his dantian was shattered and blurry, and even his five organs and six viscera seemed to be twisted and displaced like they had been squeezed. To put it bluntly, the state of his physical body was a complete mess.
As a free and unconstrained immortal, I am not accepted by the nine heavens, nor do I belong to the nine hells. I can only wander eternally in the vast expanse of heaven and earth.
He has gone through nine heavenly tribulations, knowing that the heavenly tribulation of the scattered immortals is changing from one to another, especially three, six and nine. The third heavenly tribulation is the earthly punishment tribulation, meaning that if you want to wander on the earth, you must first go through the trial of the earth. The sixth is the heavenly punishment tribulation, meaning that if you want to wander under the sky, you must also go through the trial of the sky. As for the ninth heavenly tribulation, it is the life and death tribulation, but Tang Jing is not clear whose trial the life and death tribulation is.
Although the Earthly Tribulation and Heavenly Tribulation were extremely terrifying, Tang Xiu had managed to get through them, albeit in a rather sorry state. His physical body had suffered severe injuries, but he never expected the Ninth Tribulation of Life and Death to be so horrific, not only causing him to lose all his cultivation, but also leaving his physical body riddled with wounds, weak and feeble.
Fortunately, Tang Jing understood flesh reconstruction, otherwise, facing this situation, he really didn't know what to do.
Physical rebirth.
It emphasizes putting oneself in a desperate situation and then coming back to life, destroying and then establishing, going against the flow and rising up.
This is not a kung fu, but a kind of magic.
This divine ability was created by Tang Qing himself. It was a kind of divine ability that he had gained insight into during the process of condensing his physical body with his yuan Shen after failing to cross the nine heavenly tribulations and switching to cultivating as a loose immortal.
To cultivate this divine ability, the primary condition is that the physical body must be completely destroyed, only destruction, not extinction. Only in this way can one have the qualification to rebuild the physical body. Since creating this kind of divine ability, Tang Qing has always been regretful that he couldn't personally cultivate it. Unfortunately, he had to destroy his own physical body, and he didn't want to use himself as an experiment, so he gave up. Who would have thought that after passing through the ninth calamity of life and death, his physical body was really destroyed, leaving no complete skin intact.
It is unknown whether this is the will of heaven playing tricks on people, or the retribution of cause and effect.
Tang Jing finally got his wish to reshape his physical body, although he had never practiced it before. He was confident that he could complete the reshaping of his physical body and also believed that after the reshaping, his physical body would no longer be weak. However, he couldn't determine what kind of shape his physical body would take on after the reshaping!
But... it probably won't be worse than now anyway.
Without hesitation, Tang Qing began to reshape his physical body. He forcibly extracted the Xian Qi from each part of his body and gathered it in his Dantian. As time passed, the Xian Qi contained within his skin was extracted, causing it to become dull and withered, like the bark of an old tree. His muscles, bones, meridians, internal organs, and blood all had their Xian Qi extracted by Tang Qing, which then gathered in his Dantian. These Xian Qi were restored after he woke up, although not many, but enough to be used.
At this moment, Tang Qing seemed like an old man on the verge of collapse, his hair was white, his skin was dry, his eyes were lifeless, just like a corpse. His heartbeat and breathing had stopped, he took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and entered the second stage of physical reconstruction.
First step, break the bones!
Tang Qing sat with his legs crossed, his hands placed on his knees. Suddenly, he shook his body violently, and a series of cracking sounds echoed out one after another. The bones in his body were all fractured and fragmented, but although they were broken, they did not scatter, instead remaining intact and condensed together.
The second step is to cut off the pulse.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Tang Jing's body Eight Extraordinary Meridians were all severed.
The third step is to break through the apertures.
Another strange sound, and all 366 acupoints in Tang Qing's body burst open.
Fourth step, coagulation!
Tang Qing guided all the blood in his body to condense into his dantian.
Four steps completed, Tang Qing didn't dare move and couldn't move. With just a slight movement, his skeleton would scatter, his meridians would become disordered, and his orifices would be sealed off.
At this moment, in his blurry Dan Tian, blood and immortal aura merged with a hint of life aura. After a brief moment, Tang Jing, who was like a dead body, suddenly opened his eyes. As he sank into the Dan Tian, the blood, immortal aura, and life aura merged together and frantically rotated, bursting forth like a flood from the center of the Dan Tian to each part of his physical body, nourishing the five organs, wrapping around the acupoints, transforming the meridians, stroking the tendons, and stroking the skin membrane...
Crackling and popping sounds continued to ring out, like the crisp sound of stir-frying beans.
Rumble...
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard, and Tang Qing was shocked and lost his color. This loud noise seemed to come from the outside world, but it also seemed to be directly in his mind, resonating deeply in his heart. It was a dangerous feeling, one that was all too familiar to Tang Qing.
Heavenly calamity!
This is a disaster!
The old master has merely remoulded his physical body; could it be that the tenth calamity of heavenly tribulation has already arrived?
Just as Tang Qing was shocked, he suddenly felt that something was not right. This didn't seem like a heavenly tribulation. The commotion of a heavenly tribulation should be much greater than this. The sound of a heavenly tribulation could shake his soul to extinction at this moment, but this sound did not have any power of tribulation.
But if it wasn't a heavenly calamity, then what would it be?
Rumble...
Another deafening crash, the sound was not like a thunderclap from the sky, but more like an angry roar from the earth, dull and ancient.
At the same time!
Shangguan Qixue, who had been resting in bed inside the manor, suddenly opened her eyes, looking greatly disturbed. She got out of bed and threw on the clothes beside her, then appeared on the rooftop in an instant. Her eyes were wide with shock, her eyebrows furrowed in surprise, as she looked around at every corner of Qingyu Gate.
What's this noise!
What's going on?
She doesn't know.
Instead, a figure suddenly emerged from the back mountain and jumped onto the roof, stopping only when he landed on the outer door of a house. He was an old man with white hair and beard, who was indeed the Great Elder. At this moment, his expression was also extremely shocked.
Following which, the four elders, six elders, Song elder and other Qingyu Gate elders all appeared.
Later, all the disciples of Qingyu Gate also heard this old and dull voice. They woke up from their sleep and ran out in a hurry!
Rumble...
It was that distant, dull and ancient voice again, entering his ears and shaking his heart.
What happened after all?
Shangguan Qixue was unaware, the elder did not know, and the rest of the people were also bewildered and unsure. They all stood there, staring, shocked, and suspicious...
Rumble...
The hoary voice rose again, and the earth began to shake violently!
Was it a landslide?
Just as everyone was puzzled, a strange scene suddenly appeared in the void above the Qingyu Gate. The scene was extremely blurred and nothing could be seen clearly, like a chaotic mass.
However, looking at the strange scene in the void, Shangguan Qiyue was stunned, and the Great Elder, Fourth Elder, Song Elder, and others were also stunned. In just a short breath, Shangguan Qiyue's expression changed from being stunned to disbelieving, to shocked, to surprised, and became extremely complex.
"Auspicious sign appears, precious body manifests!"
Right after that, the Great Elder also shouted extremely excitedly, "This is a heavenly phenomenon! A phenomenon has occurred, treasure appears, and the phenomenon is unfolding above my Qing Yu Men. This means our Qing Yu Men will give birth to a Heavenly Treasure Body! Who is it? Who is breaking through the foundation, who is transforming their bones! Who!——"
