I Live Forever With My Proficiency

Chapter 404 Disaster

After Gong Zhiyuan's matter was resolved, Chen Ping continued to live an ordinary life of cultivation.

"Everyone, the Demon Race is coming."

On this day, when Chen Ping was practicing in the Xiaozhu Peak Quiet Room, a loud voice covered the entire Lingxiao Sect.

What came randomly was the loud ringing of the bell.

There are three long and two short bells that only ring when the Lingxiao Sect is in danger of dying.

Chen Ping was horrified and quickly walked out of the quiet room.

But as soon as they walked outside the mansion, there was a shaking sensation from Xiaozhu Peak, and a strong wind howled.

He suddenly turned his head and saw countless bright spots shining on the horizon. After a while, the bright spots continued to get bigger. It was a densely packed huge fireball burning with black flames.

He came with lightning speed and was in front of him in the blink of an eye.

"Boom!"

The Lingxiao Sect's mountain-protecting formation was broken in an instant, and the small mountain-protecting formation on Xiaozhu Peak fell apart in the blink of an eye.

The huge fireball hit the mountain, and countless cracks spread on Xiaozhu Peak.

The mansion collapsed in an instant.

A huge wave of air struck, and Chen Ping quickly displayed a defensive sword and shield, but was still thrown away by the huge shock wave.

He was extremely shocked.

I didn't expect that the battle between humans and demons would come so quickly and so unexpectedly.

Chen Ping, who was rising in the sky, saw that the Lingxiao Sect was in chaos. Demon Race and Demon Cultivators who had been lurking in the sect in advance had begun to kill, and there were flames everywhere.

"Kill, surround and suppress those peak masters."

"Kill and crush the Lingxiao Sect."

All this happened so fast that Chen Ping had no time to react or prepare in advance.

After several Demon Races saw Chen Ping, they immediately bullied him and attacked him.

"Bang!" "Puff!" "His!"

Chen Ping looked at his completely broken left arm, and then at the Demon Races he had killed, his scalp numb.

Unexpectedly, this day finally came.

‘You can’t fall in love with fighting. ’

‘There are too many Demon Races, and they are not weak in combat power. ’

"Headmaster Wei, give up the Lingxiao Sect and lead everyone into the forest to hide." Chen Ping shouted.

He didn't know why there were so many Demon Races at once. Demon Race is obviously fully prepared. If the Lingxiao Sect persists, it will end up with the entire sect being exterminated.

Giving up on Lingxiao Sect is the best choice.

Chen Ping turned around and rushed towards Independent Cultivator City.

His wife and apprentice are still there.

The city of Independent Cultivator has now been reduced to ruins. The destructive power brought by the huge fireball has turned the buildings here into ruins. The surviving Independent Cultivator fled into the forest in a hurry while fighting Demon Race.

"Begonia, Lingshan."

Chen Ping rushed into the ruined Yun Mansion, but his shouts did not receive any response.

He casually grabbed a Yun family disciple who crawled out of the house in a hurry:

"Where is your head?"

When the disciple of the Yun family saw it was Chen Ping, tears burst out of his eyes:

"Master Chen Feng, it's over, it's all over. The head of the family is dead, Aunt Lingshan is also dead, they're all dead..."

Chen Ping's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

My head was buzzing.

He couldn't hear clearly what the disciple was saying. He threw the disciple away and stumbled into the ruins of the inner palace.

The bodies of Yun Haitang and Yun Lingshan were lying on the ground.

His upper body was covered with blood and his robe was broken.

Chen Ping ran over numbly, picked up the two corpses, and checked his Entering Spirit... Both of them were lifeless.

The world turned gray in Chen Ping's eyes.

They were the few relatives he had in this world, and they were just gone.

"There is someone here, kill him."

Another Demon Race rushed in.

In a rage, Chen Ping hammered Demon Race into a pulp, and this process also made him sober.

…Now is not the time to be sad.

He quickly put the bodies of Yun Haitang and Yun Lingshan into the storage bag and attacked again.

He led a group of people from Yun City to fight and retreat, and submerged into the forest. Then he handed the team over to the only remaining Yun Family Foundation Building monks and asked them to hide in the forest.

Chen Ping himself went all the way north.

He desperately wanted to know about Yu Lingchun's situation. With the war between humans and demons, Xiyue might not be able to take care of her.

During the process of sneaking all the way north, I discovered that not only the Lingxiao Sect was attacked by sneak attacks, but also such battles were taking place in almost all the immortal cities.

It's as if Demon Race didn't enter the human world through some passage. Rather, the Demon World and the Human World overlap.

A few days later, they finally arrived at Tianyan Sect.

But they found that the place had long been transformed. Apart from broken walls and ruins, there was no trace of living people. The mountains of corpses and seas of corpses were shocking.

Among the countless corpses on the ninth peak, Chen Ping saw the most familiar one.

His heart felt like it was about to burst, and he was in so much pain that he couldn't breathe.

Gone.

All of a sudden it was gone.

"Haha, there is actually one person who is not dead. Then let me send you home."

Just when Chen Ping was heartbroken, a vicissitudes of voice came, and then a slender black arm stretched out from the darkness.

The overwhelming pressure made it difficult for him to breathe.

Chen Ping was horrified and was about to jump back in an instant.

But I found that my body seemed to have taken root, connected with the earth, and I couldn't move at all.

The hand came over instantly.

"Get out!" he yelled.

…

"roll."

In the quiet room, Chen Ping jumped up on the ice jade bed.

Suddenly he opened his eyes.

Familiar quiet room, familiar decoration, familiar environment...

‘It turned out to be a dream. ’

Chen Ping wiped his face and realized that he was covered in sweat and soaked to the skin.

The heart is still pounding.

This dream is so fucking real.

Um?

wrong?

How could I dream if I wasn't asleep?

Chen Ping took two cleaning charms for himself, sat down on the ice jade bed again, and was surprised to find that his soul had some signs of damage.

This shocked him again.

Looking back for a moment, I understood.

This is inner demons.

This is the legendary Gold Core disaster.

The first Gold Core catastrophe usually occurs between the third and fourth levels of Gold Core and will come with practice. There is no unified time point as to when it will come.

Some monks may experience the calamity of inner demons as soon as they enter the third level of Gold Core, while some monks may only experience the calamity when they break through to the fourth level of Gold Core.

Chen Ping is now close to a breakthrough in cultivation, so he obviously belongs to the latter group.

‘I didn’t expect it to be so dangerous. ’

‘It actually caused damage to the soul. ’

Chen Ping still feels frightened when he thinks about it now. If you can't withstand the hardships in the inner demon world, your soul will be damaged. This is no small matter.

‘It seems it’s time to go to Tianyan Sect Transcending Tribulation. ’

Chen Ping packed up the items that he had knocked over due to the turbulence of his aura, and had no intention of practicing any more. The heart tribulation just now was so real and the sense of immersion was so strong that now I am still feeling extremely low and extremely depressed.

then.

Summon Xu Ruyan and attack Gong Zhiyuan.

This time it took a full two hours, and Chen Ping felt a lot more relaxed before walking out of the quiet room.

It was still a peaceful scene outside.

The crisp and melodious chirping of birds, the pleasant-smelling rare spiritual plants, and the octagonal deer that likes to squawk everywhere.

Nothing has changed.

After leaving Xiaozhu Peak, we went straight to the leader's house. When we saw Wei Xun, he directly stated his intention.

"Recently, inner demons have appeared in my practice. It seems that the Gold Core Tribulation is coming. I would like to know some things about the Gold Core Tribulation from Master Wei. Is it convenient?" Chen Ping clasped his hands and asked for advice.

The Gold Core Tribulation is similar to the Great Enlightenment. Perhaps everyone’s understanding is different. It’s always good to ask more people who have been there.

The more these experiences the better for Chen Ping.

Wei Xun was no longer surprised by Chen Ping's progress in cultivation. On the contrary, he thought it was normal.

He recalled his feelings and introduced:

"The so-called Gold Core tribulation can be seen as a test of the Primordial Spirit. After all, what you have to do after the Gold Core expires is to let the Primordial Spirit become a baby. The Gold Core tribulations are different in different periods. The three levels of Gold Core The most important test is your state of mind. To put it simply, anything that may cause you to have inner demons may appear while you are practicing."

"Head Wei is talking about desire?" Chen Ping asked.

If it's desire, it's somewhat similar to the Soul Refining technique he started practicing at the Foundation Building Stage.

The process of Soul Refining is the process of controlling desires.

Wei Xun shook his head:

"More than lust."

"The things you desire, the things you fear, the things you are obsessed with, the things you are attached to, the things you hate, can all make you fall into an illusion."

When you desire something extravagantly, the inner demon will build such a mirage for you.

If you cannot see through it, or are unwilling to do so, you may be trapped in this false utopia forever.

When you are afraid of something, your inner demons will also cause you to encounter such a scenario.

If you don't wake up, you may be frightened in such a scene, and your Primordial Spirit will be damaged in the real world, and your cultivation will be stagnant.

After listening to what Wei Xun said, Chen Ping finally understood.

The reason why he could dream about the coming war between humans and demons was because he had been worried about it.

This then gives the inner demons a chance to take advantage of them.

"When the inner demon comes, how to quickly escape from the illusion? Does Master Wei have any experience?" Chen Ping continued to ask for advice.

Wei Xun continued:

"Once you fall into the inner demons, you can only rely on the monks to awaken themselves. There are not many shortcuts. The stronger the Primordial Spirit, the easier it is to survive the Gold Core disaster of Rank One."

"However, some large sects will specially arrange some places for experiencing tribulations. When experiencing tribulations in such places, there are often some means to avoid the risk of life."

"But how much can you gain from the Gold Core Tribulation? It still depends on yourself. Outside forces won't be of much help."

Chen Ping understands.

This is the case with the Heart Demon Tower of Tianyan Sect mentioned by Xiyue.

As for some small sects, if they do not have such conditions, they can only resist. For example, when Wei Xun experienced the Gold Core tribulation, he did it in Lingxiao Sect.

Chen Ping continued to ask about all the details and precautions during the calamity in detail, and did not leave the head's mansion until the sunset.

‘It seems it’s time to go to Tianyan Sect again. It’s at least safer to survive the Gold Core tribulation there than at Xiaozhu Peak. ’

With this in mind, Chen Ping went to various resource halls to replenish some elixirs, talismans and other materials.

Get ready to go out again.

Returned to Xiaozhu Peak and continued to make some preparations.

Yun Haitang is still retreating in the quiet room, while Yun Lingshan has gone out and needs to come back in two days.

Chen Ping was not in a hurry and waited for Yun Lingshan to come back and give an explanation before leaving.

In the quiet room.

Chen Ping practiced the Five Qi Chao Yuan Gong, while Xu Ruyan absorbed the evil spirit for a while and came out of the Law Treasure to breathe.

But because there was only Chen Ping in the quiet room, and Chen Ping seldom talked and spent most of his time practicing, she was bored.

Sometimes he would hold his chin up and stare at Chen Ping.

Sometimes I look at the scenery outside the window.

"Is there anything good to see outside the window? Haven't you been sneaking out from time to time?" Chen Ping noticed her movements.

In recent years, Xu Ruyan occasionally goes out to the forest alone at night.

As long as she doesn't hurt anyone, Chen Ping doesn't bother to pay attention to her.

After all, she is the evil spirit of Rank Three. Seeing the changes in the world outside Law Treasure will be beneficial to her understanding, and may be useful for improving her strength.

"Master, Yan'er once told you that Yan'er knew where there was a powerful Rank Three evil spirit. Master, do you still remember?" Xu Ruyan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Chen Ping's eyes.

"No." Chen Ping did not open his eyes.

Xu Ruyan:

"Then Master, do you still remember that Yan'er has a sister?" Xu Ruyan sat next to Chen Ping, blinking at Chen Ping with her big eyes.

"Remember, I was beaten to pieces by Su Lengyuan. What happened?" Chen Ping didn't know why she mentioned this matter.

When he opened his eyes, he realized that Xu Ruyan was sitting next to him, very close. Training:

"Why are you sitting next to me?"

"Master is confused?" Xu Ruyan smiled.

"Why are you upset?" Chen Ping was speechless.

"Master, it's not what you said yourself, - Xie Sui, I want you to help me practice. You also said that you can refine your mind. I think the master is confused." Xu Ruyan did not show any weakness, and imitated Chen Ping's voice and yelled.

Chen Ping couldn't help but blush.

What are you talking about?

I was really practicing my state of mind.

"Tell me something if you have something to say." Chen Pingzheng said.

Xu Ruyan stopped her smile and said seriously:

"Actually, Yan'er's sister was not completely distraught, and Su Lengyuan's methods were not clever. A little bit of her sister's soul remained, and later it became an evil spirit. Now she is also in Qingyun Territory."

This was something Chen Ping didn't expect.

When I was forced to empathize with Xu Ruyan, I witnessed her entire life, but because I only paid attention to things related to her obsession, I only watched the fragments of her life related to her obsession in a limited time.

Didn't look at it all.

So she didn't know that her sister was also evil.

"Is your sister a Rank Three evil spirit? Can a Rank Three evil spirit still be able to deal with Su Lengyuan?" Chen Ping didn't know what the situation was.

"it's not true."

Xu Ruyan shook her head and introduced her sister's situation.

Chen Ping sighed after hearing this.

Only then did she learn that besides her sister, there was another evil spirit. The two sisters called her Aunt Leng, and that one was the Rank Three evil spirit.

But the amazing thing is that the evil spirit is only a Rank Three evil spirit in the cave of the Demon Slaying Site, and it is only a Rank One evil spirit when it leaves the cave.

No wonder Nai couldn't do anything to Su Lengyuan.

"Why is there such a big difference in Miss Leng's cultivation inside and outside the cave?" Chen Ping was quite curious.

This was unheard of in his knowledge.

"This Yan'er doesn't know either. Aunt Leng came from the other end of a dark pattern in the cave. As for what is on the other end of the dark pattern, Yan'er doesn't know either." Xu Ruyan didn't know either.

Chen Ping asked her to continue introducing the situation of the Demon Killing Site, including the situation of the cave.

Especially the dark line that can make such a big difference in the cultivation level of evil spirits.

Unfortunately, Xu Ruyan didn't know what dark patterns were.

"Master, Yan'er went out a few days ago to meet her sister. My sister and Aunt Leng also want to serve the master. Master, please accept your sister and Aunt Leng." Xu Ruyan requested.

So that’s what happened.

No wonder this guy went out from time to time some time ago.

To be honest, he wasn't very interested in the evil spirits of the two Rank Ones.

But this is Xu Ruyan's sister.

That's another matter.

Anyway, the Night Walk of One Hundred Ghosts can accommodate a lot of evil spirits, and two more are not much.

"It's okay to accept it, but let's make it clear first that your sister's original obsession was not strong, and her potential has been reduced. If you accept it, I won't necessarily be willing to spend evil spirits on her. As for that cold girl, it's even more strange. , we have to meet him first." Chen Ping got vaccinated in advance.

"Thank you, Master. Master is the best." Xu Ruyan smiled heartily.

In her opinion, it would be great to be able to use the evil spirit pool in the Law Treasure. This is a treatment that is not available in the cave.

As for the evil spirit pill, I don’t have any extravagant hopes.
