Chapter 200 Searching for the Three Demons Palace
call!call!
Qin Chuan's eighteen clones kept teleporting and exploring in the ice and snow cave.
Even though the Ice and Snow Cave was extremely vast, it could not withstand Qin Chuan's exploration. After only three years, Qin Chuan found the first guardian of the Mother Ancestor Sect.
He was a skinny old man in a turquoise coat with strange tattoos on his body. Each tattoo was like a vortex, emitting an inexplicable power.
Qin Chuan's clone was billions of miles away, observing the old man through the world realm.
The world domain can be virtual or real. When it is virtual, most of the people in the realm of creation cannot detect it. After the guardians of the Mother Ancestor Religion came to their universe, although they also practiced the mysterious system of rules, the difficulty of the mysterious system of rules is not comparable to that of the Mother Ancestor System.
Even for the guardians at the venerable level, progress is extremely slow, and most of them remain at the level of the fourth heavenly god.
At this level, it is simply a dream to want to perceive the existence of the world in a state of nothingness.
"Keep an eye on him first." Qin Chuan did not rush to take action.
If he takes action now, the other members of the Mother Ancestor Sect will definitely get the news. By then, the guardians of the Mother Ancestor Sect will all go into hiding or even leave the Six Paths Heavenly Wheel, and that would be a loss.
Qin Chuan's appetite is not limited to the guardian of the Mother Ancestor Religion alone. Since the Blood Blade God Emperor has promised to reward him, Qin Chuan has to fleece the Blood Blade God Emperor no matter what.
"Keep looking."
Qin Chuan left one clone to keep an eye on the guardian of the Mother Ancestor Sect, while the other clones continued searching.
Time flies, and before we know it, more than three hundred years have passed.
"According to the information from Blood Blade God Emperor, there are roughly seven guardians in the Ice and Snow Cave Heaven. Now I have found six. Is it possible that one of them left, or I just haven't found him?" Qin Chuan pondered in his heart.
Seven is just an approximate number after all. The people of the Mother Ancestor Religion have no causal line in this universe, so naturally no one can determine their whereabouts.
"Look for it again. If you still can't find it, go to the Blood Demon Cave to search." This thought flashed through Qin Chuan's mind.
Qin Chuan's ancient cultivator clone is even more powerful than he thought. He has tried it and found that even if it crosses different caves, the clone can still exist.
This means that Qin Chuan has every hope of finding all the guardians of the Mother Ancestor Sect in the two major caves at the same time, and then taking action at the same time.
However, at this moment——
call!
One of Qin Chuan's clones did the same as before. After exploring a place, he teleported away from the original place. However, the next moment, Qin Chuan's expression changed a little.
The moment Qin Chuan teleported and appeared above a lake, an invisible force suddenly locked onto him.
“This power is.”
A thought suddenly flashed through Qin Chuan's mind, and he felt slightly relieved.
call!
A bubble wrapped around Qin Chuan, and then the bubble burst with a loud bang, and Qin Chuan inside disappeared without a trace.
After a while——
Endless coldness came, and Qin Chuan's clone who had disappeared before walked up from under a snowy mountain.
In the center of a snowy field, there is an ancient palace. The palace is covered in snow, exuding an ancient and desolate atmosphere.
"The Heart Refining Hall."
Qin Chuan looked at the ancient characters on the quaint hall and understood in his heart.
As expected, he was teleported to the Heart Refining Hall within the Three Demons Hall.
The Six Paths Heavenly Wheel was created by the Demon Ancestor in the third universe era. Although the Demon Ancestor was not as powerful as the Sword Master, he was also an extremely terrifying strong man.
Within the Six Paths Heavenly Wheel established by the Demon Ancestor, there is also an opportunity similar to the "Blood and Fire Cave Heaven" left behind.
That is the "Three Demon Palace". If you pass the test in the Three Demon Palace, you can also get gifts from the Demon Ancestor.
It has to be said that the two powerful men, the Sword Master and the Demon Ancestor of the Third Universe Era, were very generous to their younger generations.
Qin Chuan was not surprised that he was teleported here.
Any living being who enters the Six Paths Heavenly Wheel has the hope of coming here, and Qin Chuan has created a total of seventeen clones, which together with his original body makes a total of eighteen.
Compared to ordinary people, his chances of entering the Three Demon Palace are undoubtedly much greater.
Qin Chuan did not hesitate, he went straight to the "Refining Heart Hall".
When you step in, you will see a mottled wall with dense words on it. Then, an old man with a white beard walks out.
"Young man, you are unlucky. The first place you encountered was the 'Heart Refining Hall' of the Three Demon Halls." The old man shook his head and said:
"This Heart Refining Secret Technique is the most difficult of the three basic secret techniques, but it needs to be mastered within a million years, otherwise you will not be able to go to the other two Demon Palaces."
"Refine the mind, temper the divine heart of one's own body, this secret technique is indeed powerful." Qin Chuan looked at the secret technique on the wall, and he was secretly amazed in his heart.
The deity's heart is where the soul resides.
To temper the mind of the deity is to temper the soul, and even more so to temper the mind and will. It is incredible that one can create such a secret technique.
"Thank you for the reminder. I'll try it first." Qin Chuan said with a smile, and then he sat down cross-legged.
Although it is a clone, except for weapons and treasures, everything is the same as the original body. This kind of spiritual secret technique that does not require the support of external objects can naturally be practiced by the clone.
The secret art of refining the mind is divided into three tribulations.
The first calamity is "despair". When practicing, there will be extreme pain inflicted on the original deity's heart, that is, the soul.
The pain in the flesh is easy to bear, but the pain in the soul is not so easy. However, Qin Chuan's soul has returned to its true self, and his will is extremely condensed, so he can easily bear the pain at this time.
In just two days, the first disaster was overcome.
Immediately after that, he practiced the second tribulation, "Heartbeat". This tribulation was the emergence of illusions and many temptations. For Qin Chuan, this tribulation was easier. With his spiritual realm, he would not be tempted.
The second tribulation was also easily accomplished.
After calming down a bit, Qin Chuan began to practice the third calamity - the calamity of time.
This is also the calamity that Qin Chuan is most looking forward to. Practicing this calamity will take him a lifetime and a long time.
"Having reached the fifth level of mental power, I feel that my mind has been fulfilled. After breaking through the world realm, although the 'quantity' of my mental power has increased greatly, the realm of my mental power has not essentially increased. I can't even touch the edge of the sixth level of mental power." Qin Chuan thought secretly in his heart.
He wasn't surprised either.
Theoretically speaking, the sixth level of mental strength is the highest level of spiritual practice. After that, the improvement of the world of the mind is purely related to enlightenment. The stronger and more balanced the enlightened Tao is, the stronger the world of the mind will be.
As for the path to the perfection of the heart of Tao, it is the combination of Tao and heart, which is another path.
The pure spiritual realm, the sixth level of mental strength is the ultimate perfection. It is difficult, but it should be so.
Countless terrifying powers have spent endless years with their mental strength remaining at the fifth level. Only a very small number can reach the sixth level and open up the world of their hearts.
"This calamity of time can make people fall into an endless cycle of reincarnation. I wonder if it can be of any help to me." Qin Chuan was looking forward to it.
He also began to formally practice "Years of Tribulation".
During the years, Qin Chuan began a life of different experiences.
Either you become a creature from the divine world and live a carefree life, or you become a mortal in the material world and grow step by step to become a god, but risk life and death because of making enemies.
In some lives, Qin Chuan's cultivation reaches the level of transcendence, while in other lives, he becomes a powerful being and lives through a long time.
Qin Chuan watched each life and each experience.
During the catastrophe of time, time passed at an incredible speed of hundreds of billions of years, and in reality, more than a thousand years had passed.
"Huh? Dong Bo Xueying has fully understood the Divine Heart of the Chaos Cave?" Qin Chuan's clone who stayed in the material world received this news, and he sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, even after leaving the Blood Blade Divine Court, Dong Bo Xueying's cultivation was still very fast.
At this time, Dong Bo Xueying was only over 5,000 years old, and he had already become a god of the second heaven. The fastest record of becoming a god of the second heaven in the God Realm and the Abyss was not much faster than this.
"The calamity of time should also end."
In the Lianxin Hall, Qin Chuan opened his eyes.
"It's not that easy to improve the spiritual realm." Qin Chuan sighed in his heart. He tried his best to maintain the calamity of time longer, but this secret technique also has its limits.
There is no point in maintaining the secret technique by force. There is no other choice but to practice it.
call!
Qin Chuan stood up directly, and at this time, the white-bearded old man who had been waiting beside him looked at him with some surprise. Qin Chuan had just practiced the Tribulation of Time, and there was still a special aura remaining on his body. The old man had been guarding the Refining Heart Palace for several cosmic eras, so he was naturally familiar with this aura.
"You've succeeded? So quickly?" The old man looked at Qin Chuan with some confusion.
There is nothing strange about practicing the Time Tribulation. After several cosmic eras, there are quite a few people who have mastered it.
But as soon as Qin Chuan entered the Heart Refining Hall, the old man felt that his soul was very young, so he said that Qin Chuan was unlucky.
But unexpectedly, Qin Chuan actually mastered it right away.
"Yes, I have already mastered it." Qin Chuan nodded slightly. He only looked young, but in fact he was an old guy.
"Among the Three Demon Palaces, the Heart Refining Palace is the most difficult. Now that you have mastered the Heart Refining Secret Art, the Bone Dissolving Secret Art of the Hemolysis Palace and the Bone Erosion Secret Art of the Bone Erosion Palace will probably be mastered by you sooner or later." The old man said as he took out a token and handed it to Qin Chuan.
"With this token, you can go to the other two demon palaces. When you have mastered the three basic secret techniques, come back to me. The master left behind unique skills and treasures, all with me." The old man said again.
"Thank you very much."
Qin Chuan nodded, that was indeed the case.
For those who have reached the Kaikai Realm, even if they cannot master the secret techniques of hemolysis and bone erosion in one go, as long as they are willing to try, they will be able to master them sooner or later.
On the contrary, the secret art of refining the mind is so difficult and terrifying that some people can never master it even after reaching the state of opening up.
Therefore, as long as you master the secret art of refining your mind, you will basically have passed the test of the Three Demon Palaces.
Qin Chuan also felt emotional in his heart. Compared with his experience in the Blood and Fire Cave, he felt much more relaxed here in the Three Demon Palace.
Of course, it was actually normal. After all, he hadn't grown up at that time, so naturally he found it difficult.
After arriving at the Three Demon Palace, he not only became much stronger, but the most difficult secret technique of refining the mind also happened to be the one he was good at, so it was of course much easier.
call!
Wrapped in a force, Qin Chuan's clone was teleported out of the Refining Heart Hall.
At this time, Qin Chuan, who had been searching in the Ice and Snow Cave for a thousand years, also stopped searching.
"It seems that there are indeed only six guardians left in the Ice and Snow Cave, and the seventh guardian may have left long ago." Qin Chuan pondered for a moment and made a decision.
Six clones were left to keep an eye on the six guardians in the Ice and Snow Cave, while the rest went to the Blood Demon Cave to continue searching.
At the same time, he also went to the Hemolysis Hall and the Bone Erosion Hall as soon as possible to practice the other two secret arts and get the Demon Ancestor's treasure as soon as possible.
PS: I’m in a bad mood today, so that’s all. Adding the two thousand I owed before, I now owe three thousand.
