Chapter 105: First Glimpse of the Dust (Part 1)

The sky was hazy and floating, as if falling into the clouds. The sky and the earth were all white, and the gray sky seemed to be pressing down. It was full of silence, emptiness, and a deep feeling. This was the scene that appeared when Zhou Qing and Fairy Yunxia followed Taoist Lingxu onto the Golden Dragon Ladder and entered the Shushan Cave Heaven. The three of them were particularly conspicuous in the white world. Taoist Lingxu floated in the air, with talismans constantly flowing on his body. He said to Zhou Qing and Fairy Yunxia who were following him: "My two Taoist friends, this is our Shushan Mountain Protection Formation, the Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Formation, which is quite powerful. Life and death are all in a thought. Please follow me closely." There was a bit of pride in his tone.

Originally, the Shushan Cave Heaven was opened above the sea of ​​clouds on the Golden Summit of Mount Emei, absorbing the underground dragon spirit veins of the entire Mount Emei as the energy to maintain the stability of the cave heaven. This is why the cave heaven blessed land must be opened in the famous mountains. Using the magic weapon to control the cave as the hub, and conveying the dragon vein spirit, this is the basic principle of opening up the cave paradise.

Of course, using force to break the space and create a permanent, stable, and self-sufficient world is something that even immortals do not have. It is a means of creation. Legend has it that it is the paradise of the Western Buddha, and it was made successful by using a treasure left over from the ancient times. It turned out that the founder of the Shushan sect also arranged a formation to guard the Shushan cave, but it was just a symbolic gesture and served as an alarm. After all, at that time, monks frequently visited the mountain gate. If a great killing formation was used at the door, it would be like the King of Hell opening a shop, and ghosts would not come.

In order to establish its prestige, Shushan removed all the formations guarding the cave and replaced them with the two-yin and yang dust of annihilation and killing. Every cultivator who came in had to be led by more than a dozen elders of Shushan before they could really enter the cave. In fact, such a big fuss was mainly for the big sects such as Kunlun, Maoshan, and Longhu to see. Who knew that the old Taoist Qianji of Kunlun was cut off by Zhou Qing halfway and ended up with a physical collapse. The other two masters did not even enter the mountain gate. Shushan was flirting with a blind man this time, wasting this effort in vain. But fortunately, Zhou Qing, a great master, came, and the old Taoist Lingxu had to show off in front of Zhou Qing, which was also a small way to establish prestige.

Zhou Qing used this method many times, so he didn't know Lingxu's intention. However, Zhou Qing was originally born in the way of studying formations and had an extreme preference for formations. Now he has the opportunity to peek at this legendary ancient fairy formation, of course he is very happy. Zhou Qing followed Lingxu Dun in a strange trajectory while observing the movement. However, he did not know the depth of this formation and did not dare to rashly use his divine sense to investigate. Although Zhou Qing also studied the Dutian Shensha formation, which was as famous as the Liangyi Microdust Formation, the two were different in their uses, and there was no way to connect them. Besides, Zhou Qing had not yet comprehended the Dutian Shensha formation.

The scene in front of him was still white, but then fist-sized snowflakes fell all over the sky, and a thick cold air suddenly filled the world transformed by this formation. The snowflakes covered the whole world in front of him, and he could not see anything. Zhou Qing took a palm-sized snowflake with his body, and the biting coldness pierced into the meridians in Zhou Qing's hand. Zhou Qing quickly used the true fire in his body to melt the cold air and the snowflakes, and the snowflakes turned into water vapor and spread out. "It's not an illusion, it's real?" Zhou Qing's eyes turned, and then he blurted out in surprise.

Taoist Lingxu suddenly heard Zhou Qing's surprised words, raised his hand, and a green sword light covered Zhou Qing and Fairy Yunxia, ​​and also covered himself in it, and the snowflakes of fists and palms could no longer fall. Taoist Lingxu's tone became more and more proud: "My two Taoist friends, this ancient fairy formation is not like the ordinary formation that confuses people with illusions. The world it transforms is real. Once trapped in it, I'm afraid even the gods in the sky will have to work hard to get out. My two Taoist friends just need to follow me, and don't move at will." After saying that, Taoist Lingxu moved both hands and drew purple talismans in the air.

The whole world suddenly changed, and the original whiteness disappeared immediately. Mountains, rivers, birds and beasts, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and it was clear. What a world full of vitality. However, this situation did not last long. It turned into a dark, chaotic scene. Just like that, as the Taoist Lingxu continued to draw talismans, the whole world changed continuously. Sometimes it was a fairyland on earth, sometimes it was a tragic scene in hell. It was bright and dark, which made people dizzy. If Yunxia and Zhou Qing were not both highly cultivated and determined, they would probably have a mental breakdown.

"The two-element dust formation here is just an empty shell. Although it is also powerful, it is far less powerful than the original one. It seems to be a temporary arrangement." Seeing the Taoist Lingxu boasting so much and making such a big noise, Fairy Yunxia followed Zhou Qing closely and said to Zhou Qing using the true essence sound transmission technique.

"Oh? Fellow Daoist Yunxia, ​​what do you mean?" Zhou Qing looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was. He was itching to use his divine sense to investigate the mystery of the formation, but he was afraid of causing trouble. This ancient immortal formation was of course prepared for this. No one knew what trouble it would cause. There were many people in the formation that devoured and repelled divine consciousness. Zhou Qing's mind power was unparalleled. With the power of divine sense alone, he was probably twice as strong as the masters of the same level as him. Once he was counterattacked or devoured by the formation, the loss would be even greater.

Seeing that the old Taoist Lingxu was still doing his own thing, the scenes between heaven and earth changed from time to time. Zhou Qing knew that he was trying to find the true location of Shushan Cave Heaven in the several illusory worlds transformed by the formation. Although the old Taoist Lingxu wanted to show off and deliberately made a fuss, Zhou Qing knew that the old Taoist Lingxu had spent a lot of effort.

"The true core of the Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Array is the Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing Divine Talisman, which is a thing of the Taishang Laojun in the Bajing Palace of the Tushita Heaven, the leader of the ancient human religion. If this kind of divine object was left in Shushan, Shushan would have long been superior to Kunlun. It must be that the founder of Shushan, Changmei Zhenren Ren Shou, only got the method of setting up the array, but did not get the talisman to suppress the core of the array. Otherwise, with the effect of the Hunyuan Yiqi Taiqing Divine Talisman, he could use it at will when fighting the enemy and pull the opponent into the array. Who would be the opponent of Shushan? When this formation is fully deployed, it is said that: life and death are annihilated like bubbles, and the two worlds are like dust. That is the real immortal that cannot escape. Now, I estimate that it is less than one percent of its power at most."
