Seven Strings in Dreams

Chapter 53: Life and Death 9

If there is a chance, he can also consider selecting some suitable treasures for the other guardians. He doesn't know when the Yin Yang Tai Chi Pavilion will be opened again. The next time it opens, Monk himself will not come in to interfere, and leave the opportunity to the others. In fact, this opening was not in Monk's plan. Just like he never thought that the woman he loved would give birth to a son and a daughter for him...

The alien world is vast and boundless, as if it has no end. In the end, Monk was entangled in three treasures, one of which was a sword named Hanhuang. Legend has it that the blade of this sword was taken from the heart of a thousand-year-old ice, and it was forged by a divine craftsman in a special way. Once this sword comes out, if it does not drink blood, a hundred miles of ice will be frozen. However, this sword needs to be nourished by the blood of the owner's heart, one drop of heart blood is poured into it every year, and it will take ten years to achieve the unity of man and sword. But these are all legends. Although Monk likes this Hanhuang, he has doubts about these legends. Hanhuang and Zechuan are two swords with completely different personalities. One is like an indifferent monk who cuts off the world, and the other is like a gentleman who upholds justice.

Although Monk chose the Zechuan Sword first, he has not yet recognized it as his master. He also likes this Hanhuang Sword.

He was in such a hurry to open the Yin-Yang Taiji Pavilion this time that he felt a little guilty for not bringing along a few guardians. He felt that this Hanhuang Sword was very suitable for his right guardian Cong Heng. Cong Heng was a martial arts fanatic, preferred the sword, and loved swords as his life. However, Cong Heng had a gold spiritual root attribute, so Monk put down the Hanhuang Sword first.

The other two treasures are the Heart-Eating Mirror, which is an exquisite mirror. Legend has it that it can be used to find the eye of the enchantment, not be controlled by illusions, and can save lives in critical moments. Monk originally wanted to give this Heart-Eating Mirror to the Amber Guardian. But Monk had some concerns. It was really unreasonable for a grown man like him to give a mirror to a young and beautiful girl, so he thought about it and gave up.

Fortunately, Monk did not choose the Heart-Eating Mirror. This mirror is very strange and Amber cannot control it. It might even backfire on him.

The last treasure is a treasure fan, which is called Langyue. It is a weapon with strong attack power and strong defense power. It looks ordinary, but the material is very special. It is invulnerable to swords and guns, and is not afraid of water and fire.

Monk chose it because he wanted to give it to the left guardian Linlang. No one is more suitable to use this precious fan than Linlang.

Monk grabbed the small light ball of the Langyue Fan and crushed it directly. The other small light balls did not retreat either. After all, Monk still had a chance to choose, but this time Monk directly withdrew from the Alien Realm and turned to the Golden Realm.

Since Monk has already prepared a gift for Linlang, he naturally cannot be partial. He must pick one for Congheng as well, so as to avoid any rift between the two brothers.

Maybe Monk was overthinking, but as the high priest, he still had to consider these things. The two brothers might not care, but those subordinates might not say so. Some words would go to heart after hearing them for a long time. The two brothers were in charge of so many people, how could all of them be good? There was no guarantee that there would be one or two who would fan the flames.

Cong Heng and Lin Lang are his right-hand men. One is good at fighting, has strong martial arts skills and is loyal; the other can handle trivial matters in an orderly manner and is good at dealing with people. The two brothers are equally important in his heart.

In the Golden Realm, the small light balls were not interested in Monk. Monk grabbed them forcefully and released those that were not suitable. It took him a long time to find a good sword, but it was a bit wild and difficult to tame! Monk had his own way. This sword was called Ling Jue Sword, which was just right for Cong Heng. Monk spent a lot of effort to subdue Ling Jue Sword's light ball. While Monk was still chasing Ling Jue Sword, another person appeared on the second floor of the attic.

This time, it was Elder Gele who came. Elder Gele's previous challenge was life and death, that is, he could neither live nor die. Like others, Elder Gele also experienced nine lives and nine worlds, but his first few lives were neither able to live nor to die, and the latter were neither able to die. Now, he finally got liberation, but he didn't expect it to be faster than Wu Na and Meng Xianyu.

Gele: "Ah! Sister Wulan, how come you are so fast? So amazing! Little Yixi is out too!"

Wulan: "The elder must have accepted the challenge! Yixi and I did not accept the challenge, so we arrived here first."

Ge Le: "No wonder! Wulan is the one who has foresight! This is such a rubbish challenge."

Wulan: "Elder Gele, please go and select the treasures as soon as possible!"

Geller: “Is there anyone else here?”

Wulan: "The high priest has been in there for a while!"

Geller: "Then I have to go in quickly! We can talk after I come out."

Ulan: “Okay”

Geller: "I've spent so much effort to get this opportunity, so I have to choose carefully!"

Elder Gele's test results showed that he had a perfect and strong fire root and a half-dead gold root. In Gele's heart, there was also a missing thunder root. Regardless of what the thunder root was, Elder Gele could now go to the Fire Realm and the Gold Realm, and he would get two chances after successfully passing the level. This way, he could choose four treasures, just like the high priest.

The challenge chosen by Elder Geller was not easy, as each of these people's ideas was worse than the last.

Let me briefly talk about Elder Gele’s nine lives and deaths.

In his first life, Elder Gelu was reborn as a sea fish, a particularly low-level one. It was the kind of small fish that kept fleeing, but ultimately could not escape the fate of being eaten alive by a big fish. This life was very short and tragic, but all this was just the beginning of a tragic story.

In his second life, Geluo was still a fish, but this time he didn't have to worry about being hunted down by a big fish. Because he was caught and brought up directly, he was inevitably put into the kitchen and stewed. He was at the mercy of others, and he had no ability to struggle at all.

In his third life, he transformed into a blood-sucking mosquito. At first, he hated this new identity and refused to try to suck blood. Later, he was so hungry that he could not bear it anymore and finally accepted his fate and was ready to give in. But as soon as he landed on a person, he was slapped to death before he could suck a drop of blood.

Elder Geller's nine lives of life and death are quite different from High Priest Monk's nine lives of the Supreme. When Elder Geller transformed into other things, he knew he was going through a level and remembered everything clearly. But in the High Priest's nine lives, he didn't remember who he was in each life, and each life was a brand new self.

In his fourth life, he was a vegetable bug. He was discovered by a vegetable farmer, thrown into the chicken coop, and eaten by a rooster.

In the fifth life, he became a cricket in the hands of a dandy. Elder Gelu didn't know whether he should seek a quick death or try to live. He couldn't escape, so he had to bite the bullet and join the war, winning more than a dozen battles. But he couldn't escape death.

If Elder Gelu had known in advance that from the sixth life onwards, he would no longer be unable to live, but unable to die, then in the fifth life he would definitely not have fought those crickets to such an extent, and he would have given up struggling long ago.

In his sixth life, he turned into a stone, kicked around by passers-by, and couldn't move. He couldn't even sleep, so he could only lie on the roadside, exposed to the sun and rain, day after day, year after year. He didn't know how many years he had gone through, and he was finally crushed by a passing carriage, finally escaping his torment.

In the seventh life, he turned into a soul stone. He was worshipped in the ancestral temple. As long as the owner of the soul stone was alive, he would lie there forever. He didn't know whether he should hope that the owner of the soul stone would die soon. When the soul stone was broken into pieces, Elder Gelu was in great pain.

In his eighth life, he turned into an inkstone, listening to his master's endless chatter every day. Later, he was abandoned for many years, with no one paying attention to him. Until one day, a child accidentally broke it, and he was freed.

In the ninth life, he turned into a pair of new shoes, but the heroine was poor and could not bear to wear them. It was not until decades later that a fire burned him and everything finally ended.

These nine lifetime experiences have made Gele calmer and more understanding. All in all, it is a good thing for him.

Geller entered the Golden Realm first. When the treasures in the Golden Realm saw Geller, they fled like evil spirits. Only a few scattered small light balls did not escape. But those small light balls just stayed where they were, and had no intention of approaching Geller. Geller was not a person who forced others to do anything, and he did not study what treasures were in the small light balls. He just grabbed a small light ball and crushed it.

Unexpectedly, it was a beast pill of a gold-type spirit beast. Gelu didn't know much about gold-type spirit beasts, he only knew that they were generally very ferocious and could challenge spirit beasts of other attributes.

Geluo collected the beast pill and decisively left the Golden Realm.

Then he went to the Fire Realm. The small light ball in the Fire Realm welcomed Geller's arrival very much. It rushed directly towards Geller. Geller waved the small light ball in front of him in disdain.

Geller: "If you can understand me, then line up and let me see clearly. If you rush forward, I will go to other illusions."

The small aperture seemed to really sense something and surrounded Gler obediently, not daring to act rashly.

Geller finally chose a Heart of Karma Fire. In fact, Geller didn't know it either. He only knew that it contained a huge amount of Karma Fire power. The name was just something Geller picked up casually. It was a fiery red Karma Fire Stone. If it were someone else, they would be burned the moment they caught the Karma Fire Stone. Elder Geller had excellent control over the fire element and quickly subdued the Karma Fire Stone.

This Karma Fire Stone is a kind of crystal stone. Crystal stones often contain a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and the essence of the sun and the moon. When a cultivator is breaking through a realm, if he is worried about the lack of spiritual energy from heaven and earth around him, he will prepare the necessary crystal stones in advance in case of emergency.

Karma fire refers to the fire that harms the body due to bad karma. It is also the fire that burns sinners in hell. Karma fire is a powerful rage. Karma fire is not suitable for alchemists, but the attack power of karma fire is extremely strong. Especially for those evil people who have caused great harm to others, the attack power of karma fire is even stronger. Karma fire will not disappear after being refined, which is extremely important for fire element practitioners.

The most powerful karmic fire is the legendary red lotus karmic fire.
