Chapter 325 The Treasure Chooses Its Master
With the fluctuation of his soul, an area of ​​nearly 20,000 meters in radius was under his control, which is nearly 20 kilometers.

The soul of an ordinary ninth-level god or demon can only detect about 900 meters, but Lu Changjing's foundation is extremely strong, so he can detect nearly 20 kilometers.

The radius is 20 kilometers, and the area is nearly 1,000 square kilometers.

Some smaller cities in the previous life were only about a thousand square kilometers in area. In other words, Lu Changjing's soul could easily cover a city in the previous life.

Any area within the range of the soul is within Lu Changjing's attack range. He can mobilize the power of heaven and earth at any time to launch a devastating attack on the enemies in this area.

Even if the enemy is not within the range of the spirit, the spirit can still leave the body and go thousands of miles away to destroy the enemy.

The ninth-level god and demon, also known as the body-snatching god and demon, has an incredibly powerful soul that can easily take over the body of another person without too many side effects.

The soul is immortal, the gods and demons are immortal, this is the power of the ninth-level gods and demons.

However, even if it could cover an entire city, he would not be able to find the source of the earthquake because it was too far away from him.

Fortunately, with his current power, he doesn't need to take the initiative to look for it, and news will be presented to him soon.

There was an earthquake in the sky, and in the earthquake, treasures flew up into the sky and entered the nine heavens.

Nowadays, many human gods, demons, monsters and ghosts in the land of China have rushed to the Tianzhongshan area, wanting to obtain this treasure, including some top-level gods and demons.

Because the vibrations emitted by this treasure are extremely strong, it has surpassed the category of divine weapons. It is very likely to be a mysterious weapon, and not an ordinary one.

Faced with such a treasure, even half-profound gods and demons would be tempted, let alone top-level gods and demons.

Lu Changjing was also tempted, and he used his Ruyi to transform himself into a small man of a few centimeters. In an instant, he traveled tens of thousands of miles and soon arrived at the Tianzhong Mountain area.

There are already many human gods, demon gods, devil gods, ghost gods, strange gods, etc., but the strongest one is only a level 30 demon god, and has not yet entered the level of semi-profound demon god.

The most important thing is that this person is Lu Changjing's soul-catching servant Baihu. If it gets the treasure, it means that Lu Changjing has obtained it.

He smiled slightly and was about to search for the whereabouts of the treasure when he felt a shock all over his body. A purple bead appeared silently in front of him and he could grab it with his hand.

From this purple bead, Lu Changjing could vaguely sense an astonishing fluctuation, which was restrained yet terrifying, mysterious and unpredictable.

A piece of information inexplicably emerged in his mind, that is, this purple bead was the treasure that appeared in the earthquake in Tianzhong, and it had already recognized him as its master and was waiting for his sacrifice.

What's happening here?
Lu Changjing carefully reached out and took it. The purple bead let him take it obediently without any resistance, and fell into Lu Changjing's hand.

The soul poured in, and the ritual went more smoothly. In just a cup of tea, the purple bead was successfully ritualized.

Heart Demon Bead!
A top-level mystical weapon has only one effect, which is to help gods and demons survive the inner demon tribulation among the three heavenly tribulations. Moreover, it is not a disposable mystical weapon, but can be reused.

The only flaw is that before each use, you need to accumulate special power. The longer the accumulation time, the greater the effect it can play in the heavenly tribulation.

And once used, it needs to be accumulated again, at least for a thousand years, before it can have a certain effect.

The last time this Heart Demon Pearl was used was one hundred thousand years ago. In other words, it has accumulated power for more than one hundred thousand years.

Once Lu Changjing uses it to overcome the tribulation, he will be able to overcome the tribulation of his inner demons for sure.

Among the three heavenly tribulations, the one that gave Lu Changjing the most headaches was the tribulation of the inner demon.

After all, the Vajra's indestructible characteristics can effectively strengthen his divine body defense and divine essence defense. The Five Elements Tribulation and Heavenly Thunder Tribulation do not pose much threat to him, especially the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.

He still has a cultivation foundation twenty times that of warriors of the same level. Even if the heavenly tribulation will change according to the strength of the person undergoing the tribulation, it will not increase by more than twenty times.

But the inner demon calamity is different. No matter how strong the soul defense is, the effect it can produce is limited.

The inner demon originates from oneself, not from an attack from the outside world, and even defense is impossible to defend against. The only thing that can be effective is a firm will and an excellent character.

However, Lu Changjing knew very well that although he had willpower and character, they were very limited.

He is different from other Half-Mysterious Gods and Demons. Other Half-Mysterious Gods and Demons have relied on their own strength to reach their peak step by step.

In this process, willpower and character are tempered and honed in an amazing way, far beyond ordinary people's imagination.

However, with the help of the golden finger, Lu Changjing has reached his current level in just a few years. His character is much stronger than that of ordinary people, but he is not as good as many ordinary gods and demons, and his willpower is also about the same.

In this situation, how can he overcome his inner tribulation?

Even those warriors who practiced step by step to the semi-profound god and demon level found it very difficult to overcome the inner demon calamity, let alone him.

Therefore, Lu Changjing was not even half sure about his ability to overcome the inner demon calamity. During this period of time, he had been thinking about how to find the corresponding treasure to help him overcome the inner demon calamity.

However, he did not expect that after searching for a long time, he would find it without any effort. Before he could gain anything, he obtained this Heart Demon Pearl, which could be said to be tailor-made for him.

With this Heart Demon Pearl, Lu Changjing's chance of surviving the tribulation is at least more than 90%, which is basically stable.

But why did this Heart Demon Pearl suddenly find him? It could be said that it took the initiative to throw itself into his arms.

Is it because of my deep affection and loyalty?

Lu Changjing quickly dismissed this unreliable idea. Although he was very loud and often boasted shamelessly, Lu Changjing knew very well that he was not as good as he claimed.

If I didn't have the golden finger, I would have died in some corner long ago, and it would be impossible for me to get to this point today.

So why would this seemingly spiritual Heart Demon Pearl take a liking to him?

Just when he thought of this, a message came from the depths of the Heart Demon Pearl, telling Lu Changjing the answer. The reason was that according to the calculations of the Jiuzhou Barrier, Lu Changjing was the most likely person in the human race to step into the realm of Xuanzun and save the human race.

Moreover, the Heart Demon Pearl is extremely compatible with him. Before he had the Heart Demon Pearl, his chance of being promoted to Xuan Zun was only one percent, or even less, and he was not the one with the highest chance among the human race.

But after having the Heart Demon Pearl, his probability of being promoted to Xuan Zun soared to about 99%, basically approaching 100%.

It is precisely because of this that the Jiuzhou Barrier and the Heart Demon Pearl made the most rational choice based on the rules of operation and selected Lu Changjing as the savior of the human race.

This was the backup plan left behind by the ancestors of the human race when they set up the Jiuzhou Barrier a hundred thousand years ago. There are several backup plans similar to the Heart Demon Pearl in the land of China, but the conditions for their emergence are different. Basically, they will only appear when the human race is about to face a catastrophe.

For example, the condition for the Heart Demon Pearl to be born is that more than half of the earth veins, water veins, and spiritual veins in the Tianzhu Mountain area have been destroyed. Only then will the Heart Demon Pearl be born and choose a suitable master.

The collapse of Tianzhu Mountain certainly caused severe damage to the Jiuzhou Barrier, but it also gave rise to the birth of the Heart Demon Pearl, which played an extremely important role in helping Lu Changjing survive the triple heavenly tribulation.

Good fortune often lies within the shadow of misfortune, and misfortune often lies within the shadow of good fortune. Even Lu Changjing had never thought of this.

Fortunately, he failed to stop it at that time, otherwise the Heart Demon Pearl would not have come out, and Lu Changjing would not have been able to obtain the Heart Demon Pearl.

Thinking of this, Lu Changjing was somewhat relieved. Compared to the severe damage to the Jiuzhou Barrier, Lu Changjing hoped to obtain the Heart Demon Pearl more.

Now that the Jiuzhou barrier has not been broken at all, and he has obtained the Heart Demon Pearl, it can be said that good things are happening one after another.

Although he knew that there were other backup plans in other areas, which were probably related to the earth veins, spirit veins and water veins, Lu Changjing was not planning to destroy these places.

With a Heart Demon Pearl, the probability of surviving the triple heavenly tribulation is close to 100%, and there is no need to look for other opportunities and treasures.

Lu Changjing happily put away the Heart Demon Pearl and sent a message to his servants, telling them not to look for it anymore as he had already got the treasure.

Then he quietly left this place, returned to the imperial study, and continued his hard practice.

With the Heart Demon Pearl, Lu Changjing's last worry was gone. He could then concentrate on practicing. When his energy, spirit and vitality had all reached the semi-profound level, he could then trigger the triple heavenly tribulation. After overcoming it, he could enter the realm of Xuanzun.

Not long after returning to Baiyujing, Zhao Xiaotong surpassed the others and broke through the limits of his spirit, energy and vitality, entering the demigod level. He also perfected the dragon and phoenix secret arts and was able to break free from the shackles of gods and demons.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to consummate the marriage, Lu Changjing also held a grand wedding for Zhao Xiaotong.

Baiyujing, the Palace of Wisdom, is also the residence of Zhao Xiaotong.

The sun shines on the red brick and green tile palace walls, and a touching wedding scene slowly unfolds in the light and shadow.

There are lights and decorations everywhere, and the atmosphere is full of joy. The red lanterns swaying in the wind seem like poems of blessing.

How can I die if I get a match, I am willing to be a mandarin duck and not envy an immortal.

Comb once, and you’ll have hair all the way to the ends; comb twice, and your hair will be as white as your eyebrows; comb three times, and you’ll have hair all over the place, with your children and grandchildren.

Guns were fired, firecrackers were set off, big red lanterns led the way, and there was music and singing along the way.

In the bright new house, the embroidered silk quilt was spread with red dates, peanuts, longans and lotus seeds, implying the wish for a son soon, and they were laid out in circles of heart shapes.

Many palace maids and maids of the Palace of Wisdom were running around, celebrating the fact that the master of the Palace of Wisdom was favored by His Majesty the Emperor.

Lu Changjing held Zhao Xiaotong's hand tightly, and they worshipped each other amid the sound of firecrackers. Even Zhao Xiaotong's mother was invited over, and she looked at the two of them with tears in her eyes.

The ceremony lasted for several hours before it came to an end. The two entered the bedroom to prepare for the most important thing of the day.

The boudoir is quietly waiting for good news, with red scarf and green sleeves decorated with golden bells. The quilt is like water and the woman is like jade, and the beautiful scenery is spent in Lanyin.

Zhao Xiaotong had been waiting in the bedroom for a long time. When Lu Changjing came in, even with her temperament and understanding, she couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The mole on the cherry lips is dotted with cinnabar, and the black hair falls on the shoulders like a waterfall. The slender hands hold the cup and are drunk, and the wedding night is full of candlelight and drunkenness.

Lu Changjing held the girl's shoulders and gently lifted the red curtain. Looking at the poetic and picturesque beauty in front of him, Lu Changjing lowered his head and kissed her: "I hope that in this life, I can hold your hand and grow old with you."

Hearing this, Zhao Xiaotong's tears fell all of a sudden, and she couldn't hold back any more: "Your concubine... Your concubine is also willing to hold your hand and grow old with you. This feeling and this intention are witnessed by heaven and earth."

Lu Changjing's heart moved and he covered the girl.

The wedding night is a time of beautiful scenery.

The secret techniques of dragon and phoenix were performed, and the auxiliary magical objects were used one by one. The two of them started practicing quickly.

Outside in the garden, a bee was collecting nectar from a goldenrod.

The golden phoenix flowers swayed in the breeze, danced with the bees, and played a moving song.

The dragon and the phoenix sing in harmony, and the music never stops.

Unconsciously, he had broken through one level after another and was about to enter the realm of gods and demons.

In front of the two of them, these checkpoints were as fragile as tofu and were easily broken through.

The bees outside have also collected the best pollen and can use it to make the sweetest nectar. After being nourished by the bees, the stamens become more and more beautiful, making people unable to help but immerse themselves in them.

The two people who were so immersed in their spiritual practice did not know that in a bottomless cave in the northwest area tens of thousands of miles away from them, strange-looking demons were rising into the sky and rushing in all directions.

Wherever they passed, all the earth veins, water veins, spiritual veins... were all destroyed. The western land, which had just been peaceful, fell into war again.
