Chapter 106: The Dragon Swallows the Mirror and Does Not Die, Merging with the Spirit

  Having obtained the Mahavairocana mantra, Muyuan was overjoyed in his heart. Although he had only briefly come into contact with that old monk, every word and deed of his revealed the Buddha's teachings, and the compassion that accompanied him everywhere moved Muyuan deeply. Seeing him fall, Muyuan couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow.

  "This pearl is also a treasure, and it has actually produced thirty-two layers of prohibition!" Mu Yuan exclaimed in surprise after a slight probe. Since following Ao Jing's knowledge of the alchemy heart, Mu Yuan's understanding of magical treasures had a general vague concept, unlike before when he was confused.

  This bright red bead in front of me, with its radiant glow and soaring vital energy, is clearly no ordinary object. Although the monk's physical body has died, he hasn't managed to cultivate his primordial spirit, so the spiritual imprint within the bead has also vanished. Unlike a high-ranking cultivator's treasured artifact, which would retain its spiritual consciousness even if its owner dies, this bead's consciousness has been extinguished. Even if someone else were to obtain it, they would have to go through great trouble to activate it.

  Before he could do anything, he felt the ground shaking beneath his feet. He hastily put away the fire bead and focused his mind to take a closer look. Suddenly, a door on the left burst open, and a bright light flashed before his eyes, enveloping two figures who rushed out - Lin Fei Yun and Nie Wu Xiang!

  Two people were covered in a haze of smoke, but they looked very disheveled. Lin Feiyun's hair, which was originally tied up with a golden ribbon, had become completely disheveled, and the sleeves and collar of his clothes seemed to have been burned by fire, curling up towards him. Nie Wushuang's attire was still intact, but his face was somewhat pale. When they saw Mu Yuan, both of them showed some joy. Lin Feiyun loudly called out, "Fellow Daoist, please come and lend me a hand!"

  Mu Yuan had long been prepared, and when the two burst out of the door, a tiger-faced dragon-bodied monster followed behind them. On its head was a single horn, and a thick column of water swirled above it, twisting and turning like a dragon, charging towards Lin Fei Yun with a fierce attack. The Jade Pivot Heavenly Thunder Seal that the two had manifested kept colliding with the water column, which condensed but did not disperse. However, the Heavenly Thunder Seal technique of the two seemed to be distorted and changing, as if it could not withstand such power! At this moment, Mu Yuan let out a loud shout, and the Six Harmony Sword Maru pierced through the air in one go, transforming into a crystal-clear sword rainbow that swiftly slashed at the monster's left flank.

  This strange beast was also recognized by Mu Yuan, and the classics recorded that it was the Long Jiao mentioned by the old monk just now. Unexpectedly, Lin Fei Yun and others encountered it, Mu Yuan did not dare to be slow, knowing that this beast could divide the water and drive the spirit of the water, which was very fierce, and also spit out long silk threads, making flying swords difficult to cut, but this time he went all out, using the Six Harmony Sword Orb to its extreme.

  Since learning the method of refining the Fa Bao, Mu Yuan had also seen this sword pill. Although it was extraordinary, there was no seal within, unlike the Minghe Xianjian and the Changsheng Jian. The Minghe Xianjian was a 36-layered perfect flying sword with seals, while the Changsheng Jian was even more formidable, with nine major seals inside, each with 36 circles of arrays. At that time, Mu Yuan had thought to ask his master about the method of refining flying swords after returning to the Changsheng Palace. However, this set of sword pills was also extremely powerful when unleashed, shining brightly and striking directly at Long Jiao.

  Lin Feiyun, Nie Wuxuan and Mu Yuan reunited, and at the same time, they each drew out a flying sword from their sleeves, shining brightly with seven stars twinkling, dazzlingly beautiful, and shot up in reverse!

  The dragon's attack on the three was as if it were extremely excited, shaking its head and tail to create three water columns that entwined with the trio's sword lights. Under the intense shock, they did not dissipate but instead became even more condensed. Occasionally, countless water droplets scattered out like jade stones falling from the sky, yet faster than crossbow arrows, causing Mu Yu and the others to be in a flurry of activity.

  "This must be the dragon tortoise that Old Monk met, it's indeed formidable. The three of us are also quite skilled in our cultivation, and Lin Fei Yun and Nie Wu Shuang's swordsmanship is extraordinary, yet we can't even take down this one dragon tortoise! Mu Yuan saw the two people's sword techniques, which were wonderfully mysterious, and the three of them combined still couldn't defeat this dragon tortoise. Old Monk was able to charge through the outer array and kill two of them, it's clear how formidable he is!"

  "Two fellow Taoists, I think this dragon is formidable. The immortal mansion has heavy restrictions and dense formations. Why don't we just retreat?" Mu Yuan had obtained the Great Sun True Fire Technique out of thin air, and wasn't particularly interested in the immortal mansion anyway. Seeing that the dragon was difficult to deal with, he couldn't help but feel a few points of retreating intention!

  A gentleman sees the opportunity, and the way is natural. Since things cannot be done, they naturally cannot be forced to go against them. Lin Feiyun and Nie Wushuang have come in with great difficulty, but they haven't gained any advantage yet. Of course, they are not willing to retreat, so they desperately stimulate their spiritual power, wanting to kill the dragon in front of them and enter the next level!

  This dragon fish is indeed the spiritual beast guarding the immortal mansion. Just now, Mu Yuan heard the old monk's explanation that one person killed two heads, but was shaken to the point of injury to his meridians, and he still had some doubts in his heart. After all, that monk was already a great Buddhist master, and if placed in the Taoist school, he would be at the top of the refining stage, infinitely close to the yuan god, yet suffered such severe damage. Now it seems that it's not bad!

  Three of them were all extraordinary figures, Mu Yuan's Taoist practice was not just condensed and frosty, but his combat power was not inferior to Dan Cheng, even higher than some masters. Lin Fei Yun and Nie Wu Shuang also possessed superior Taoist techniques, the essence of Kunlun Taoism, leading the group, needless to say. The lightning-like sword energy, the brilliant rainbow light, surrounded the rolling dragon, colliding with its protective water vapor, producing a deafeningly loud sound, the powerful energy spreading in all directions, crashing into the surrounding white jade walls, producing a rattling sound, shaking off the jade dust and powder on the wall like rain!

  The dragon carp was not afraid at all, but became more and more excited, its four limbs constantly flailing, kicking out circles of dark light that landed on the ground and bloomed into lotus-like shapes. The three people could only hear the "thumping thumping" sound that was endless, a sound that was originally pleasant to the ear, but now sounded extremely annoying. The true energy was raging and surging wildly, yet it allowed the dragon carp to come and go as it pleased, occasionally turning around to snort at the three people, spewing out a large cloud of smoke and mist, like dark clouds enveloping them, leaving the three people helpless to respond!

  "Let this beast play with me, it's infuriating!" Lin Feiyun shouted loudly, and Nie Wuxiang each stretched out an arm, their hands clasped tightly together. The clear light on their bodies suddenly burst into a black-and-white dual color, condensing in mid-air to form a massive Taiji diagram that descended upon the dragon qilin!

  "Yin and Yang dual energies, Taiji before Heaven!" The two people simultaneously let out a low shout in their hearts. The Taiji diagram in the air suddenly began to rapidly rotate, with a pair of Yin-Yang fish entwining each other within it, looking incredibly harmonious!

  The dragon horse was extremely frightened, its four hooves jumping and its mouth open, spitting out a crescent-shaped copper mirror that spun and flew out, shining with a brilliant light that illuminated the entire room, emitting a fierce golden glow that countered the Taiji diagram pressing down from the air!

  Muyuan saw the dragon jiao and was shocked by the richness of this immortal mansion, a guardian spirit beast actually had a treasure on its body, which showed the owner's extravagance!

  That copper mirror was also unknown what material it was made of, Mu Yuan had already abandoned the dragon's body, and pierced through the six-harmonious sword with the essence of the rainbow, cutting it on its surface, but only bursting out a spark, the copper mirror shook for a few times, but didn't react, the dragon gave Mu Yuan an extremely disdainful look, the copper mirror immediately separated a strand of light, shining towards Mu Yuan!

  Golden light shines over, Mu Yuan concentrates his mind to probe, and only feels that in the golden light, there seem to be countless fierce beasts rushing and howling, charging towards Mu Yuan, each displaying sharp teeth and claws tearing and grabbing, or making a direct impact, constantly attacking Mu Yuan's divine consciousness!

  Under its illumination, Mu Yuan only felt a severe pain in his brow, as if he was being stabbed by thousands of sharp knives. The sea of consciousness within him surged violently, on the verge of bursting. Those ferocious beasts tore and pulled at him with all sorts of methods, wave after wave of dizzying sensations rising up, making it seem as though he would pass out at any moment. Moreover, this golden light was like a whirlpool, pulling him in root and branch, inch by inch!

  Mu Yuan himself was motionless, but he felt as if his mind was constantly sinking deeper into the copper mirror, shocked to discover that this copper mirror was actually a treasure that attacked spiritual consciousness, just like the Demon-Suppressing Stone suppressed the physical body, each having its own wonderful uses!

  Muyuan was caught off guard and was trapped by Longji's copper mirror. The brilliant light of the essence in mid-air suddenly lost its dominance, and it transformed into six white lights that fell to the ground like sharp sword tips. Muyuan didn't have time to worry about this, he could only desperately fight against Jinguang!

  Although he had already condensed his divine sense, Mu Yuan Cheng's days of cultivating as a divine spirit were still short, and in his single-minded pursuit of spiritual powers, he couldn't help but neglect his own moral character. His control over his divine sense was far inferior to that of many others. Now that he had clashed with Tong Jing Yu, he immediately realized his weaknesses!

  If it's a battle of magical powers, Mu Yuan is confident that he won't lose to anyone of the same level and can even challenge those above him. However, if it's a pure spiritual battle, he would be much worse off!

  In the midst of crisis, Mu Yuan's mind began to recite the incantation for divine sense refinement. His vast divine sense, following the incantation, suddenly transformed into a towering tree that pierced the sky. A dazzling, silver-like river of light surrounded the tree, swirling ceaselessly. The ferocious beasts that pounced on him were struck by the tree's branches, turning into scattered, glowing fragments that rained down like a storm. Many more were swept away and drowned by the water flow, letting out mournful cries that echoed in his ears.

  The wooden yuan's divine consciousness changed, and he immediately held his ground, but was suppressed by the copper mirror at first. No matter what, he couldn't break free, and could only struggle bitterly. His whole body's energy surged and swelled, and his true qi also transformed with the change in his divine consciousness. The emerald green light and mysterious black aura on his body's surface constantly changed, and he was drenched in sweat, trembling violently!

  Lin Feiyun and Nie Wuxiang saw it clearly, but they were also unable to extricate themselves. The bronze mirror was unknown what kind of treasure it was, not only did it block the Taiji diagram of the two, but it also had a tendency to counterattack. Seeing Mu Yuan's body trembling with anxiety, he was worried for nothing!

  At this moment, the wood yuan dantian suddenly started to jump violently, and a pure and unparalleled emerald green light suddenly rushed straight into the mud ball. To outsiders, it seemed that a green light instantly pulled into a straight line, directly connecting the wood yuan dantian to the mud ball. Lin Fei Yun and others thought that Mu Yuan was casting some kind of spell!

  In the sea of consciousness, a delicate doll suddenly appeared, and it was none other than the Old Ancestor Changsheng. The Old Ancestor Changsheng looked at the giant tree transformed from Mu Yuan's divine sense, and a mischievous smile appeared on his face. Suddenly, he attached himself to it, merging with the divine sense tree as one. Two green lights intertwined, and immediately, a green light shot up into the sky. On top of their heads, a smoke-like green light appeared, swirling around like a lantern flame, flickering in and out.
