Journey to the West: From the Primordial Era

Yuquan Mountain, Jinxia Cave.

After returning from Taiqing Palace in the Honghuang Sea, Jade Ding Zhenren also let Yang Jian go and prepared to find another disciple to protect him from the catastrophe.

On this day, Jade Ding Zhenren's boy Xiao Qingyun was practicing sword in the open space in front of Jinxia Cave.

Jade Ding Zhenren accepted a disciple named Yang Jian, and there was also a boy in the cave, this boy was Qingyun. Although his strength was very low, he was valued by Jade Ding Zhenren and was considered one of his confidants.

After Yu Ding came back, he continued to ponder the Eight-Nine Profound Art. The great calamity of the Conferred God was about to come, and he needed to improve his strength. His realm could not be raised, but his strength needed to be improved.

Boom!

Suddenly, a deafening roar was heard in the distance, and the earth seemed to shake.

"What a loud thunder! Is it going to rain?"

Yu Ding was startled and looked up. The sun was shining and the sky was clear.

The sword-practicing boy Qingyun was also startled. He looked around and suddenly looked to the south and said in surprise: "Master, look, look quickly..."

"That is..." Yu Ding's eyes focused.

All I could see was a dark mass at the end of my sight. Huge thunderclouds covered the sky and earth. Deafening thunder roared in the clouds, resounding in all directions.

Should I call out to which Taoist friend is here to transcend the tribulation... Yu Ding's eyelids twitched and this thought suddenly popped up in his mind.

The boy Qingyun murmured, "Master, is this a powerful monster going through the transformation process?"

"He is really still going through the tribulation... Celestial Being? Or some other realm? Now that the great tribulation has come, many calculations are no longer effective."

Yu Ding glanced at his little supporting actor.

Then his gaze fell on the dark cloud again. Transfiguration means changing into human form.

According to the books in the Chanjiao collection, the races at the beginning of the world were blessed with extraordinary abilities and were born with incomparable strength in their bodies.

The earliest battles between heaven and earth were also contests of flesh, collisions of strength, punches hitting flesh, and those creatures could tear apart rivers, collapse mountains, and crack the earth with just their powerful bodies.

Unfortunately, after the subsequent Longhan catastrophe, the dragon, phoenix, unicorn and lich catastrophes, these powerful body-refining races went into decline.

Later, the human race took advantage of the situation and rose to prominence, and after competing with other races, became the most intelligent creatures on earth.

On the other hand, with the Three Pure Ones successfully achieving the status of the Great Immortal Hunyuan and becoming the immortal Heavenly Saint, the Xuanmen way of refining Qi and the Yuanshen has become the mainstream of cultivation today.

The human form is also more suitable for practicing the Xuanmen cultivation methods, so the spirits and monsters must pass the stage of transformation to practice.

For plants, animals and beasts to cultivate and become spirits, they must first develop intelligence and learn how to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon to cultivate and accumulate strength.

When the climate reaches a certain level, it will transform, and transformation becomes the first major hurdle.

Of course, if they don't change their human form, they can also use some magic to transform into human form, but the evil spirit is difficult to hide, and they still have the bodies of mountain spirits, monsters and wild beasts, so it is difficult to achieve a positive result.

After breaking through to the level of celestial immortals, the heavenly tribulation can wash away the evil spirit from their bodies, allowing them to transform into human bodies for better practice.

After successfully surviving the heavenly tribulation, the demonic aura will fade away, and by avoiding the heavenly tribulation, one can also break through to the celestial immortal realm. However, monsters that have not survived the tribulation will have a strong demonic aura and cannot be considered immortals.

For example, the Bull Demon King and others in the future are like this, while Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and others are cultivators who have overcome the immortal tribulation and become immortals, but their appearance has not changed.

Of course, the risk of this transformation is also quite high.

Spiritual power is converted into magical power.

Spells, spells!

The method is a skill to cultivate magical power.

Techniques refer to Taoist magic and supernatural powers, which are used to protect oneself when fighting against enemies in disasters.

To put it simply, it is similar to the internal strength and moves of martial arts.

It’s okay for those monsters who have masters, but if they are wild monsters who have no one to teach them and practice by instinct, how can they resist the power of heaven?

Therefore, the success rate of this transformation is very high.

Of course, it is not so easy to get a chance to transform. For example, it is difficult for stones, plants, etc. to open their spiritual intelligence and become a living being.

It is even more difficult to encounter the catastrophe of transformation. Perhaps it will take thousands of years of accumulation for them to have a chance to transform.

Boom...

Another huge thunder was heard from the dark clouds, and at the same time a streak of lightning rushed out and struck the ground.

"This demon, the transformation of the calamity..."

"Master Qin Hua said that one is not enough, so he asked me to take in more disciples. It seems that I can't break through the realm. I can see which good disciples there are. Yang Jian's murderous aura is too strong, and it is not conducive to helping me to resist this catastrophe."

Somehow, Yu Ding suddenly thought of the white ape that stole his peaches.

After a long time, the thunderclouds in the sky slowly dissipated. As for the person undergoing the tribulation, he was too far away and Yu Ding could not see clearly.

A few more days passed.

That day, a handsome young man suddenly appeared at the foot of Yuquan Mountain. After looking up at the main peak, he walked towards the top of the mountain step by step with a pious expression.

When he was halfway there, he suddenly saw a little boy in blue standing by a river in the valley.

The little boy was seen making hand gestures and chanting a spell, then he pointed his finger into the water and a splash of water rushed out of the river, carrying the little boy into the air.

"What a trick!"

The young man's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but shout.

"Who?"

Qingyun used the water escape technique to quickly come to the young man.

The young man clasped his fists and bowed: "Greetings, Senior Brother."

"Don't try to get close to me. Who are you to call me Senior Brother?"

Qingyun stared at the young man suspiciously without giving him any face.

The young man smiled awkwardly and said, "Have you ever seen... a fairy boy?"

Qingyun circled around the young man, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he smiled and said, "Oh, I see, you are here to become my disciple, right?"

"Exactly, exactly!"

"Where are you from?"

"I am from Meishan!"

"Meishan?"

Qingyun was surprised: "That place is not close to our Yuquan Mountain."

The young man bowed and smiled, "Who said it wasn't? To be honest, I've been out looking for immortals for many years. I would be very grateful if you could introduce me to one this time."

"I didn't expect you to be so persistent."

Qingyun stood in awe and looked back at the mountain: "But the master is still taking a nap now. I dare not disturb him before he wakes up."

Once he disturbed Yu Ding,

Then Yu Ding picked a 5,000-word book for him to memorize in three days, which made him doubt his life.

Jade Ding Zhenren saw that Qin Hua was a little nervous, but in front of his boy, Jade Ding Zhenren was very arrogant. The main reason was that the boy's strength was at the Xuanxian realm, which was far from Jade Ding Zhenren who was at the early Daluo Jinxian realm.

Yang Jian is his apprentice, and Jade Ding Zhenren treats Yang Jian sincerely and does not put on airs in front of Yang Jian, because Yang Jian has the Jade Emperor behind him, and on a deeper level, that is Hongjun Daozu.

Yang Jian is the nephew of the Jade Emperor, and the Jade Emperor is the son of Hongjun Daozu. Because of this relationship, Yang Jian is very powerful in the Chan sect, but Yang Jian is still very low-key in the Chan sect.

Yang Jian still has too much hatred towards the Jade Emperor in his heart. He does not want to rely on the Chan sect, and the Chan sect will not turn against the Heavenly Court for him. Even the Original Heavenly Venerable has to give the Jade Emperor some face. This is the benefit of having a backer.

......

The young man smiled and said, "I will be very grateful if you can just pass on the message for me, the rest depends on whether I have the destiny with the Immortal."

After saying this, he knelt down on the mountainside.

Jade Ding Zhenren's boy Qingyun looked at him approvingly and went up the mountain.

Not long after, Qingyun returned and spread his hands helplessly: "The master is still taking a nap."

The young man smiled and said, "It's okay, I can wait."

Qingyun nodded and said, "To be honest, there are only me and my master in Yuquan Mountain, and it's usually quite boring.

You are a person of perseverance and determination, and you speak much more pleasantly than the little girl last time. I think you are quite pleasing to the eye, but I don’t know if the master likes you or not.”

Seeing Qingyun talking about the little girl in a contemptible manner, the young man laughed in his heart.

Time passed slowly.

It was dusk when we waited.

Hold on, the Immortal is testing you!

The young man looked in the direction of Jinxia Cave with a respectful expression, and kept encouraging himself in his heart.

In front of Jinxia Cave.

Yu Ding thought about it, shook his head and sighed, "There are no good talents nearby. I don't know whether I should go out to the wild to find disciples. Also, the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art is too difficult to comprehend. I was able to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm because of the opportunity given to me by Master Qin Hua!"

If he continued to study it, he would lose his temper.

After all, even if the tree is good and does not belong to him, he cannot give up the entire forest for a tree, right?
