As for Ning Fan...

"Little friend, Luo should be very grateful to you for saving Luo's life, but at this moment, there is still a catastrophe to be overcome, so it is inconvenient to talk to you more. Can you wait for a moment, and then we can talk in detail after I have overcome the tribulation!

"Luo Hu slightly cupped his fists at Ning Fan and said seriously.

"Senior, please help yourself. This junior also has urgent matters at hand and must retreat immediately." Ning Fan was naturally referring to the tribulation of She Kong Xin that he was suffering from.

He has been suppressing this heart tribulation for half a day. At this moment, his heart is beating wildly and it is difficult to suppress it. It has reached the limit and cannot be suppressed anymore. He must immediately retreat to survive the tribulation.

If not, he would be very willing to see how Luo Hu survives the major and minor tribulations. Listening to Luo Hu's words, those are the major and minor tribulations that have been accumulated for 45 million years. According to the ancient monks, a minor catastrophe occurs every 900 years.

Calamity, one great calamity in nine thousand years...

Rahu has to survive at least 50,000 minor tribulations and 5,000 major tribulations!

It should be noted that the power of the monks' major and minor catastrophes will become stronger every time... Ning Fan really wants to see how Luo Hu will survive so many catastrophes in the future. It must be an extremely spectacular scene.

Unfortunately, he is also very busy.

As a result, Ning Fan temporarily left the Dao Marrow Secret Realm and returned to the outside world. War King Luohu stayed in the Dao Marrow Secret Realm to survive the tribulation.

As soon as he returned to the outside world, Luo Shi and others immediately gathered around him and asked about the progress of the matter.

Lu Wen, Wu Laoba, and Yun Lei, who were seriously injured, had only managed to suppress their injuries slightly, and were still waiting for news about Ning Fan outside the secret realm. Naturally, they were concerned about the progress of this matter.

Ning Fan did not go into detail about the process of surrendering the Witch God. He only said that he successfully revived the King of War. Now the King of War is undergoing a tribulation in the secret realm. He has accumulated tens of millions of years of catastrophe. The power is extraordinary, and he told Luo Shi and others not to enter the secret realm.

Observe the calamity to avoid being affected by the calamity.

After that, Ning Fan became a hands-off shopkeeper and escaped into the Xuanyin world for seclusion.

His promise with the Luo family has been fulfilled, the King of War has been rescued, and the rest of the matter will be handled by the Luo family.

Upon hearing that Luo Hu had awakened and was overcoming the heavenly tribulations that had accumulated for tens of millions of years, Luo Shi and other monks who had not yet entered the realm of eternity certainly did not dare to enter the secret realm to observe the tribulations.

Lu Wen, Wu Laoba, and Yun Lei's eyes lit up. Without too much hesitation, they joined forces and entered the secret realm to watch the King of War survive the tribulation.

It is a rare opportunity to watch an Immortal King who has accumulated tens of millions of years of tribulations go through tribulations. Who knows, but the three of them can gain their own insights from it? Compared with gaining insights, retreat and healing can be temporarily postponed.

It's not too late to retreat and heal after watching the War King overcome the tribulation.

Wu Laoba, a loyal servant, took out a very high-grade video jade slip and prepared to record the details of the War King's tribulation for Ning Fan to see.

The master has something urgent to do. He has lost the opportunity to watch the disaster. As the most loyal servant in the world, he naturally has to do something for his master...

If you want to record the process of the dignified Immortal King's tribulation, you need a recording jade slip of extremely high quality. This jade slip requires at least a hundred billion Dao crystals to buy in Dongtian.

Seeing that Wu Laoba spent so much money just to let his master watch the video of the Immortal King's tribulation, Yun Lei and others were filled with emotion and gave Wu Laoba a very unfair evaluation.

Wu Laoba, you are a loyal servant! This man’s loyalty can be seen in the sun and the moon, and he has the legacy of ancient justice!

Ruo Ningfan would be speechless when he heard this comment from Wu Laoba. If he said Luo Shi was a loyal servant, he agreed. If he said Wu Laoba was a loyal servant, he could only laugh...

…

It's a pity that Ning Fan is destined not to hear this comment.

As soon as he entered the western realm of Xuanyin, Ning Fan released the suppression of Shekong's Heart Tribulation. At the moment when he liberated his Heart Tribulation, the phantoms of its four real bridges immediately appeared in the sky.

Below the four real bridges is the gurgling river. In the river, there is a very blurry reflection below the first real bridge.

Ning Fan's body swayed and he appeared on the First Bridge of Reality and Illusion, holding on to the railing and looking at the blurry reflection in the river.

As the calamity in his heart continued to deepen, those reflections gradually became clearer, and they turned out to be scenes of Ning Fan answering people's promises again and again since he started practicing Taoism.

"Elder Ruoning promised to fight for the Hu family three times...I am willing to sacrifice my life's practice to condense a cultivation elixir and give it to the elder at the cost of not entering reincarnation! I planned to leave this thing to Hu Ming...

.But it seems that he is too young to take on a big responsibility after all..."

"Xiu Dan! You have done so much for the family..."

"I have no regrets! Elder Ning, just tell me whether you will agree or not!"

"That's all. If I can cultivate the elixir, I, Ning Fan, promise that I will fight for the Hu family three times in my lifetime!"

The promise in this scene was Ning Fan's promise to protect the Hu family in the Yue Kingdom when he was cultivating his spiritual power. Later, he actually did this.

The Hu family, Hu Fengzi, those memories are too long ago. If Ning Fan hadn't seen the past in this reflection, Ning Fan would hardly be able to remember the Hu family, a small force as small as a grain of rice.

But the only thing I can't forget is Hu Fengzi. In order to protect his family, he is willing to disappear into ashes and not enter the reincarnation. He turns into a repair pill and exchanges for Ning Fan to take action three times to protect the Hu family.

That was the first time Ning Fan met such a person in his early days of practicing Taoism, who was willing to be destroyed in order to protect others.

Is it worth it...

Back then, Ning Fan had asked himself that question, and the answer he came up with was, so what if it was worth it, and so what if it wasn't worth it.

The world has long forgotten Hu Fengzi, and even the people he desperately protected have forgotten him. Time has passed, and in today's Yujie and today's Yue Kingdom, no one may remember that there was once an insignificant monk who, in order to protect

The family made a dramatic decision.

It can be called heroic!

Rain is born in the sky and falls on the ground. It nourishes vegetation and nourishes living beings... The reason why it is called rain is not water, not rivers, not lakes and seas, because... it has its own way.

It nourishes the grass and trees, and it is not a reward from the grass and trees. There is no value or unworthiness, it is just the way it is. So I did it.

Just because the Tao is like this, there is no turning back!

Ning Fan looked at the reflection in the river and Hu Fengzi in the reflection, seeming to have a clear understanding.

The four realms of Shekong, the four real bridges, the reflections under the square bridges...I am afraid that every time I suffer a mental tribulation, I will see part of the reflection in the river clearly.

The monk Du Zhen builds the bridge over the river, and the monk Shekong builds the shadow under the bridge. The so-called shadow is obsession and illusion. It is something that is not recognized by heaven.

Hu Fengzi's Tao once moved Ning Fan. As a result, the Tao practiced by Ning Fan invisibly carried some shadows of Hu Fengzi.

Let go of emptiness and let go of emptiness. Only by letting go of these irrelevant shadows can we achieve a breakthrough...

The first step is to see the reflection in the true illusory river, and the second step is to abandon it... But that is the path that ordinary monks take, not Ning Fan's path.

Ning Fan has already understood his own path of emptiness. His path is different from others. His path requires persistence, persistence, and perseverance!

He didn't say much and continued to look at the reflection in the river. Under the first bridge, more reflections appeared.

The reflection in the second scene is the past of Ning Fan running rampant among the nine tribes of the Lu clan.

That year, he promised Luo Yun to seal Lu Daochen as a demon and bury his master Lu Wu. Then he did this with the prestige of Luo Yun and Lu Bei.

Ning Fan still can't forget the old man's hunched back watching the portrait of his master, lonely but without regrets.

Luo Yun sealed the demon Lu Daochen, and worked hard all his life just to accomplish one thing, which was to bury his master Lu Wu. Just to fulfill this wish, he sacrificed everything without any regrets.

It can be called a model of cultivation!

"The reflections I saw during this first calamity seemed to be related to promises..." Ning Fan pondered slightly.

The timing of his mental calamity this time is the time to fulfill the promise of the Luo family and remember the promise of the Slaughter Hall. Could it be that his first mental calamity of Shekong must be fulfilled on this promise...

In the river, a third scene of reflection appeared, which was his promise to kill the emperor, protect the descendants of Beidou, and protect the Killing Palace.

The reflection in the fourth scene is about the Ying Noro family.

There are more reflections, and all of them are promises to others, ranging from promising others a pill or medicine, to promising others to risk their lives to die. In Ning Fan's life, most of the promises have been completed, but there are also many promises

, is still in progress, and is temporarily unable to be fulfilled due to factors such as cultivation level.

However, every promise actually emerged in the water, becoming the reflection of the First True Bridge, and also became the obsession in Ning Fan's heart.

Ning Fan looked at the river under the real bridge. Gradually, he heard the sound of the vast avenue from the endless river. The sound was very vague. It was surprisingly the monk Shekong who must have heard the sound when he was going through the tribulation of his heart.

Sky sound!

"Turn back, turn back, turn back...Come and follow my path to the infinite crossing, the four illusions and four annihilations, step into the sky, leave the ground and the Yiyan Sect..."

In the river, there was suddenly a firelight that shot up into the sky. The firelight then turned into a withered old palm. The dry hand seemed to be about to decay at any time, but it gave Ning Fan a thrilling feeling, as if he could hold all the ways in the world in his palm.

, can ban time, space and years!

That withered palm does not seem to exist in reality, but exists in the reflection in the river, and it came into being with the appearance of the reflection!

The reason why that withered palm appeared was not for anything but to wipe out Ning Fan's shadow reflected in the river!

If this shadow is erased, then Ning Fan will achieve the Tao of emptiness, and can enter the early stage of emptiness. However, if the mind of knowing the Tao is damaged, it will be difficult to achieve the Tao!

Just because for an ordinary monk, abandoning obsession is not a big deal, but Ning Fan is different. He is not an ordinary monk. His Tao cannot be given up lightly, especially giving up a promise that is related to the heart of the Tao.

Ning Fan had a thrilling illusion. If he let this withered palm erase the reflection in the river, his Taoist heart would change. From then on, his temperament would change drastically, and he would no longer be a man of promises!

What kind of withered palm is this? It has such a terrifying power of annihilation and can change the human heart!

Ning Fan has read through many Mu Dao classics, many of which record the calamity of She Kong. However, after looking through Mu Dao classics, Ning Fan has not found any record of the appearance of withered palms. Other monks who have broken through She Kong must also hear about it.

Shekong Tianyin, but the contents of Tianyin are mostly concise and easy to understand words, which directly point out the flaws in the monk's way and make up for them. There has never been any Shekong Tianyin that is as obscure and difficult to understand as Ning Fan.

Not to mention that when someone is going through a mental tribulation, a flame withered palm will appear and try to obliterate the reflection!

In an instant, Ning Fan realized that this obscure and incomprehensible Shekong Tianyin, and this extremely dangerous withered palm that could tamper with the monk's Taoist heart, were most likely exclusive benefits for cultivators... dangerous benefits!

We must not let this withered palm erase the shadow in the river!

Ning Fan's expression changed drastically. Without any hesitation, he opened the shadow of the God-Destroying Giant, slammed into the river, and rushed directly towards the withered palm!

He does not allow anyone to tamper with his Taoist mind, and he does not need others to set a path for him to break through emptiness. His path is not to give up, and there is no need to erase the reflection in the river. This palm has ulterior motives, wanting to destroy his reflection and destroy his Taoist mind.
To be continued...
