Buddha is the Tao

Zhou Qing's divine consciousness is now extremely powerful and omnipresent. His understanding and knowledge of formations have reached the level of a master. No matter how many restrictions there are outside the Yuxu Palace, Zhou Qing can mobilize his divine consciousness to go deep into it and detect the fluctuations of the spiritual energy inside. Suddenly, he dared to feel several streams of spiritual energy rushing in, including the breath of powerful cultivators and the breath of magic weapons, which were rushing towards this side and arrived at the door in the blink of an eye. Zhou Qing did not dare to use his divine consciousness to test it again. He tried his best to gather his vitality and hide all his energy and spirit, blending into the mountains, rocks, and plants, and observing the movements with his heavenly eyes.

"My goodness, this magic weapon is so familiar, so powerful, so strong, I'm afraid it's not much different from my Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree. I have grudges with both sides now, but I can't be discovered. There are more people and more power. I'm made of iron, how many steel nails can I hit? It's better to hide and pick up the bargain. Hmm! The master of the Great Freedom Palace is really capable. The old nun Wuzhen is really mixed with the Kunlun Sect. This is a lot of fun! I'm also lucky. How did I happen to encounter this fight? No need to worry anymore. Those who have grudges are here. Both sides will suffer. It's a bargain."

Zhou Qing suddenly saw the gate of Yuxu Palace opened, and auspicious clouds formed into lotus flowers. On the lotus stood more than a dozen people, including Taoists and nuns. The leader was a Taoist and a nun. The nun was Wuzhen from the South China Sea. She held a white jade bottle in her hand and was full of joy. The several nun disciples standing behind her were all masters of returning to the void. Their strength can be regarded as strong in the Middle Earth.

The leading Taoist priest was a young Taoist priest, with a jade-like face, no beard, and very handsome. He looked to be only about 21 or 22 years old. He was wearing a bright red white crane silk dress, holding a purple bamboo woven flower basket in his left hand and a triangular apricot yellow flag in his right hand. Following behind him were Qian Zhen, Qian Yuan, Qian Guang, Qian Wu, and several other relatively advanced Taoist priests. They were all very respectful to the young Taoist priest and dared not even breathe a word.

"Ah! Kunlun actually has this magic weapon. No wonder, it is worthy of being the first Taoist sect in the Central Plains, the direct descendant of the ancient Chanjiao. No wonder it has been leading the trend for thousands of years, and no one dares to shake its position. It turns out that it has always been keeping a low profile!" Zhou Qing suddenly saw the triangular apricot-yellow flag in the young Taoist's hand, and his heart was shaken violently, and a huge wave of excitement rose up. This was the Yuxu apricot-yellow flag that Yuanshi Tianzun passed to Jiang Ziya for the Conferred God, also known as the Wuyi Flag of the Center of Heaven and Earth. With Zhou Qing's current vision, of course he knew that this flag was actually authentic, and it was definitely not a fake.

The Yuxu Xinghuang Flag is a treasure of the immortals. It is used to protect the body and is invulnerable to all evil. No powerful magic weapon can get close to it. It is really a first-class defensive treasure. It is also included in the many imitation Fengshen magic tools left by Yun Zhongzi in the Yuzhu Immortal Mansion, but it seems to be missing something. It can only be equivalent to a top-grade protective magic weapon at most. It is still far from the effect of the real thing. Zhou Qing naturally doesn't need it and didn't bring it out.

In fact, most of Yun Zhongzi's imitations are still unusable. This time in the underwater immortal mansion, Zhou Qing spent a lot of effort to barely find a few magic weapons that can be used and gave them to the little fox and Zhou Chen. The rest require Zhou Qing to find all the materials, or obtain the essence of the real thing, and re-refine it before it can be used. However, even Yun Zhongzi couldn't do this back then, so Zhou Qing certainly didn't consider it.

Although Zhou Qing got the Immortal Palace and many magic weapons, he didn't have any that he could use. He had the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, the Pluto Flag, the Iron-backed Centipede and other magic weapons, but his disciples were so slick that they used imitations, which made Zhou Qing feel unhappy.

"What's in that purple bamboo basket? The aura it contains is so terrifying and a bit fierce. It looks like it's not inferior to the apricot yellow flag. I'm afraid it's an attacking magic weapon. Why is it so familiar? It seems like I've seen it before. It's weird!" Zhou Qing looked at the apricot yellow flag and then the purple bamboo basket. The basket was ordinary, but it seemed to contain some powerful magic weapon. Zhou Qing didn't dare to send out his divine thoughts to investigate.

"This young Taoist priest's skills are not bad, I'm afraid he is not inferior to that toad, but his magic weapon is much more powerful!"

Zhou Qing analyzed the countermeasures in his mind and changed his mind. In terms of cultivation, Zhou Qing is the most powerful among the many masters here, and his magic weapon is firmly ranked first. It's just that his power is a little weak, and he is alone.

The old Taoist Ji Yin spat out black blood, damaged his own hundred years of Taoism, and forcibly activated the incomplete "Xuan Yin Beast Gathering Banner" to arrange it into the "Xuan Yin Soul Refining Array", in order to refine these more than 300 Kunlun disciples alive. Dozens of Kunlun Qian-generation old Taoists, Xuan Yin magic fire mixed with balls of thunder balls the size of a basket, smashed down fiercely, and the more than 300 people trapped in the array cried out in pain. The magic weapons they jointly sent out, the treasure light formed trembled violently, and from time to time, a few disciples with weak skills were refined into waste by the magic fire, and they vomited blood and were injured. If it weren't for the dozens of old Taoists in the late stage of transformation, the people of this country would have been refined into the living souls on the Xuan Yin Beast Gathering Banner.

"Brother, what should I do? Master hasn't come out yet. I can't hold on any longer!"

Ling Ruoshui was sweating all over, panting, and struggling with both hands to pull the magic formula, commanding his purple crystal jade ruler magic weapon to connect with the Xuanyin magic fire. Ling Fei also exerted all his skills. Another Kunlun disciple screamed, and the magic weapon was melted into scrap iron by the magic fire and fell down. The protective light shield formed by 300 people revealed a flaw again, and the all-pervasive Xuanyin magic fire burned down like a ferocious fire snake.

Ling Fei didn't care about Ling Ruoshui's question, and quickly sacrificed another magic weapon to fill the loophole and cut off the Xuanyin magic fire. The disciples in the light shield cast spells and dispersed the magic fire, temporarily resolving the crisis, but most of the disciples looked listless, pale, and soaked. Their true energy had reached the point of exhaustion, and it would be a miracle if they could hold on for another moment.

The lightning ball fire outside the light shield was getting more and more fierce. The old Taoist Jiyin seemed to be desperate. He spit out black blood on the Xuanyin Banner. The dark blood flowed from the corners of his mouth to his clothes. With his ferocious face and crazy roar, he looked like a demon from hell.

"When a man fights desperately, even the gods have to give him three points!" Xuanyuan Dharma King, the powerful bear king, and the six-eyed toad saw the old Taoist Jiyin fighting desperately with a smile on his face. Wen Lanxin became expressionless again. I don't know what she was thinking.

"When Ji[***]you refines these Kunlun disciples, we will occupy the Yuxu Palace, the place where the original Tianzun lived in the past. Now it will become the mountain gate of our demon clan. Isn't it a great pleasure!"

Xuanyuan Dharma King laughed loudly, and blood clouds kept flying all over his body. Eight sky ghosts appeared and disappeared in the void, sinking and floating, and his bones made the sound of frying broad beans.

"I thought the Kunlun Sect was very powerful, but it turns out they are just a bunch of ants. No matter how many ants there are, they are useless!" The powerful bear king also laughed.

"Huh, Kunlun? A thousand or two thousand years earlier, I really wouldn't dare to come to you. Unfortunately, it has declined now. Even the leader was crushed to death by me, the ancestor, like an ant, let alone these juniors."

Xuanyuan Dharma King ignored Wen Lanxin's ugly eyes and laughed strangely. The sound was so harsh that it even reached the ears of the Kunlun Taoist priests in the Xuanyin Soul Refining Formation.

When the Kunlun Taoist priests heard that the leader had died, they were in a state of confusion. Several magic weapons were blasted into their original forms by the continuous thunder balls. The rest of the disciples were in a dilemma. The magic weapon light shields they jointly created exploded continuously and were in danger.

"What a monster, you've cultivated to hurt my disciples!"

When the young Taoist came out, he saw the crisis and didn't bother to say much. He threw the apricot yellow flag in his right hand out of his hand, and it turned into a yellow light and shot into the Xuanyin formation. The black smoke, thunder balls, and magic fire in the formation could not block the yellow light at all. It was like entering an empty space, as if they were clearly separated and did not invade each other. The yellow light transformed by the apricot yellow flag did not have any effect on the black smoke, magic fire, and thunder balls.

The apricot yellow flag shot into the formation and instantly blessed the protective light shield of the three hundred disciples. Suddenly, a clear sound was loud, and thousands of yellow lotus flowers and five-colored auspicious clouds and auspicious air emerged, covering more than three hundred disciples from head to toe. Their figures could not be seen at all. The Xuanyin magic fire thunder ball hit the yellow lotus and the five-colored auspicious clouds, just like hitting a cotton bag. It had no force at all and did not bounce back. It just hovered there for a while and then disappeared instinctively, without any effect.

"I'm so angry! Kunlun actually left the apricot yellow flag, damn Jiang Ziya!"

The old Taoist Jiyin was about to succeed. He had spent a hundred years of Taoism. If he could refine so many Kunlun disciples in one go, he might be able to repair the Xuanyin Banner. Then it would be worth spending a hundred years of Taoism. Who knew that Kunlun actually had a hidden master, Cheng Yaojin who showed up halfway.

He repeatedly activated the Xuanyin formation, but found it was futile. He didn't even catch a single hair. The old Taoist Jiyin was angry and knew that it was the young Taoist who came out to do something. When he saw the old nun Wuzhen, he immediately understood a little. He retracted his finger and separated nine magic banners, shooting thousands of black threads at the young Taoist. Then he pinched the magic formula, collected the Xuanyin Banner, and prepared to go to the Xuanyin formation. With the magic weapon such as the Yuxu Xinghuang Banner as protection, it would be in vain to spend more effort. Although the old Taoist Jiyin was surprised, he was not worried about counterattacks. The Yuxu Xinghuang Banner was just a defensive magic weapon and had no attack ability at all.

"Brother, the idea is here!" Seeing the young Taoist and the old nun Wuzhen coming out of Yuxu Palace, the six-eyed toad didn't care, but when the young Taoist offered the apricot yellow flag, he was a little surprised.

"I knew there were hidden masters in Kunlun, but I didn't expect there was such a treasure as the apricot yellow flag. No wonder the old thief Wuzhen wanted to escape to Kunlun. If we had acted earlier, we wouldn't have let the old thief Wuzhen run away." The powerful bear king took a step back and prepared to use his tricks.

"Although the apricot yellow flag is a treasure, it can only defend but not attack. Kunlun's attack magic weapon, the magic whip, has fallen into the hands of Zhou Qing from the Tiandao Sect, but we have no scruples. I don't believe that a small flag can block the attacks of so many of our masters. Let's work together to set up the blood river formation and refine them for seven days and seven nights! Anyway, they don't have any magic weapons to fight back! We have the upper hand and have plenty of time!"

Xuanyuan Dharma King also took a step back and sent a message to the old Taoist Ji Yin: "Friend Ji yin, don't act on impulse, retreat quickly and act according to the original plan!"

The young Taoist saw the overwhelming black evil Xuanyin silk, with a smile on his face, holding the purple bamboo flower basket, and said to the old nun Wuzhen: "Daoyou Wuzhen, look at your immortal treasure."

The nun Wuzhen offered up the Pure Glazed Bottle, chanted a spell to collect the black evil Xuanyin silk that was shot at her, and collected all the black evil Xuanyin silk into the bottle: "Master Yuanyuan, you are too kind. How can my bottle compare to the Kunlun treasure? It's just that this Jiyin demon has committed many evil deeds in the North Sea, killing countless lives and committing heinous crimes. Look at how many human and animal souls are gathered on the eighty-one Xuanyin banners. I hope Master will not hold back and have mercy on you. It will be a great merit to get rid of this group of demons."

The Jiyin Taoist heard the voice transmission of Xuanyuan Dharma King, collected the demon banner, and retreated quickly. Xuanyuan Dharma King shook his sleeves again, shaking out three blood shadows, changing into Chengren, which were Tianxuan Blood Demon and the other two blood demons. After coming out, they didn't say anything, took a small blood banner for themselves, separated, and stood in position.

Seeing that the Xuanyuan Dharma King had taken action, the Mighty Bear King, the Six-eyed Toad, Wen Lanxin, and the Ji Yin Taoist who had retreated all took out an identical small blood banner and quickly stood in a strange position.

The Xuanyuan Dharma King laughed, raised a sticky blood cloud, threw a small blood banner in his hand into the void, and then chanted something, put his hands together, and made a seal. At the same time, the Mighty Bear King, the Six-eyed Toad, Wen Lanxin, and the Ji Yin Taoist also sprayed blood on the small blood banner. The Ji Yin Taoist looked pale. He had just injured his vitality and consumed a hundred years of Taoism. Now he was spraying blood again. Even a man of iron could not withstand the consumption. However, he gritted his teeth, his face was ferocious, and he just held on with a breath of anger.

The three-headed blood demon even tore off his arm, wrapped it with a small blood banner, and threw it into the void, chanting something.

As everyone threw the blood-cultivating banner into the void, the Xuanyuan Dharma King shouted, "Open!"

The entire Kunlun Cave Heaven's void suddenly split into thousands of dense cracks, and the cracks were dark red, with liquid flowing faintly, as if it was stinking blood.

"Not good, all disciples quickly retreat to the Yuxu Palace!" The young Taoist priest who was called Yuanyuan Zhenren by Wuzhen Old Nun was shocked when he saw this scene. He put away the apricot yellow flag, and all the disciples appeared, set up flying swords, and flew towards this side.

"Disciple greets the master!" Ling Fei and Ling Ruoshui came to Yuanyuan Zhenren and bowed their heads. Ling Ruoshui secretly looked at his master a few times and was very surprised: "My goodness! How can the master be so young? He is younger than me and looks pretty good. He is much better than some pretty boys!" I don't know what I was thinking. A blush suddenly appeared on my face, and I was a little flustered.

All Taoists, young and old, saluted Yuan Yuan Zhenren. Yuan Yuan Zhenren was so senior that no one in Kunlun could match him. These Taoists were his juniors, so of course they dared not be rude.

"Don't say more. All disciples below the Spiritualization Stage should enter Yuxu Palace. The rest of the disciples should follow me to fight the monsters!" Yuan Yuan Zhenren shouted and urged. He raised the apricot yellow flag and rolled up more than 300 junior disciples and sent them to Yuxu Palace. Ling Ruoshui and Ling Fei both entered the Spiritualization Stage, but stayed.

"Grandmaster, how can these monsters be so powerful? What kind of magic is this!" Ling Ruoshui was loved by a group of uncles and uncles. When he saw his young ancestor for the first time, he was a little curious, awe-inspiring and fond of him.

"Oh! This monster is a blood monster that fought with the founder of Shushan Sword Sect, Changmei Zhenren, a thousand years ago. He is called Xuanyuan Dharma King. He was the commander of the monster tribe a thousand years ago. Of course, he is no better than some small monsters." Seeing Ling Ruoshui asking questions, Yuanyuan Zhenren did not put on the airs of an elder at all. He explained kindly, shaking the apricot yellow flag in his hand, and thousands of yellow lotuses protected everyone: "You all use magic weapons to bombard the monsters. With the protection of Yuxu Apricot Yellow Flag, you are not afraid of the monster's magic array!"

"Little Taoist Yuanyuan, today I will let you see what it means that the higher the Tao, the higher the devil. I will refine you for seven days and seven nights to see how much true essence and magic power you have to support the apricot yellow flag!" Xuanyuan Dharma King laughed twice and issued an order. Everyone's strange spells had been finished. The cracked void gap suddenly flowed out large streams of dark red dirty blood, which was stinking and like thousands of blood-colored waterfalls.

"Haha, haha, my blood river formation is to break through the void and connect to the Netherworld Blood River. Today, I will flood Kunlun with blood. Even if you are the Jade Void Supreme Treasure, you can't escape the killing calamity. Hiding in the turtle shell, I wonder how long your apricot yellow flag can last in the extremely yin and filthy Netherworld Blood Sea!" Xuanyuan Dharma King laughed triumphantly.

It is said that in the Netherworld Yellow Spring, the underworld, there is a Netherworld Blood River, which is endless and boundless, and all of it is flowing with dirty blood. Xuanyuan Dharma King's blood river formation uses secret methods and the power of everyone to break through the void and connect with the Netherworld Blood River, attracting dirty blood and turning the entire Kunlun Cave Heaven into a vast sea of ​​blood.

Blood rained down from the sky, and thousands of bloody waterfalls fell, dyeing the entire Kunlun Cave Heaven dark red, smelling fishy and disgusting. The medicinal fields planted with spiritual medicines under several peaks were originally protected by immortal prohibitions, but they were useless in the face of this bloody blood. The blood in the Netherworld Blood River was the most filthy thing among the Three Realms and Six Paths, and it was impossible for a little bit of prohibition to stop it. The bloody blood was like a mountain torrent, quickly flooding the medicinal fields, turning all the rare spiritual medicines into poisonous weeds, and the bloody blood gradually rose several feet and flooded the foot of the mountain.

"Damn, old demon Xuanyuan, you are so vicious that you even counted me in! So many spiritual medicines, wasted, wasted!"

Zhou Qing hid in the rocks. The blood rain waterfall fell from the sky, and the blood water underground rose rapidly. It was about to submerge the rocks where Zhou Qing was. Zhou Qing had no choice but to sneak out and activate the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, which emitted a thin layer of precious light to block the blood rain. He moved dozens of feet higher and reached the halfway point of a mountain. As the blood rain was getting heavier, no one found him.

When Ling Ruoshui heard that Yuan Yuan Zhenren was going to bombard the other party with a magic weapon, he quickly sacrificed his purple crystal jade ruler, passed through the yellow lotus, and hit Xuanyuan. Who knew that a stream of dirty blood poured down on his head, and the purple crystal jade ruler fell straight down like a kite with a broken line, and the spiritual energy was completely lost. No matter how Ling Ruoshui activated it, there was no movement at all.

"I didn't expect this evildoer to be so vicious! He wants to destroy the foundation of Kunlun!"

Yuan Yuan Zhenren and dozens of Kunlun Taoist priests saw the mountain stained with blood and the medicinal fields were flooded with blood. They felt heartbroken. Fortunately, Yuxu Palace sent out a cloud to block the blood rain, and the blood didn't get on it at all. However, the blood at the foot of the mountain was still rising. If the blood covered the entire Kunlun Cave Heaven, the Kunlun Sect would be finished.

At this time, the entire Kunlun Cave Heaven had become a dark red world. Everything was only vaguely visible and shrouded in blood rain. Only the triumphant laughter of Xuanyuan Fawang could be heard. The Yuxu Xinghuang Flag was indeed a treasure. The thousands of yellow lotuses that were transformed could not even get in the blood rain.

Grabbing Ling Ruoshui who was about to use the magic weapon again, Yuan Yuan Zhenren said in a deep voice: "This is the dirty blood of the Netherworld Snow River. Once the magic weapon is touched, it will be filthy. Don't attack anymore. Even I didn't expect that this group of evildoers would be so vicious and have such a secret method. It is also fate that my Kunlun suffered such a disaster!"

Ling Ruoshui was grabbed by Yuan Yuan Zhenren's hand. Her heart was beating like a deer and her face was red. However, the other party was her master, so she didn't dare to have any thoughts.

"Chatter, chatter! The Dharma King is the Dharma King. He is worthy of being the leader of the demons in the world. Blood is flooding Kunlun, haha, blood is flooding Kunlun!" Ji Yin Laodao presided over the formation. There was not a drop of blood rain around. Seeing this scene, he let out most of his anger, was shocked, laughed strangely, and was extremely excited.

"Yuan Yuan Zhenren, what should we do now? The magic weapon can't attack again. Can we just sit and wait for death?" Wu Zhen Lao Ni was also a little anxious.

Yuan Yuan Zhenren did not answer, but bowed to the east: "Grandmaster, today Kunlun has suffered a great disaster. I am guilty of hiding the magic weapon, which led to the death of the master's nephew at the hands of the evildoer. The holy land of Kunlun has been polluted by the blood rain. Today, I will start a killing spree!"

After saying that, he bowed three more times and took out something from the purple bamboo flower basket. It was a gourd, which looked the same as the one Zhou Qing gave to the little fox. Zhou Qingtian saw it clearly, and his whole body was shocked, and he almost cried out.

Yuan Yuan Zhenren's eyes flashed, and he recited a spell and offered the gourd. A ray of light shot out from the gourd, not afraid of the filth of the blood rain at all. It instantly appeared above the head of the old Taoist Ji Yin who was laughing wildly, and condensed into an object with eyebrows and eyes, and covered it back, staring at the Nigong acupoint of the old Taoist Ji Yin. The old Taoist Ji Yin immediately stopped laughing wildly and fainted.

Yuan Yuan Zhenren lit a stick of incense, bowed to the gourd again, and said, "Please turn around, baby!" The head of the Ji Yin Taoist fell off, and even his soul was killed. The body and head fell from the clouds and fell into the rolling blood below. Soon, even his clothes melted away, and his body turned into blood.

With a bang! The Jie Zi space of the Ji Yin Taoist was broken, and some magic weapons and elixirs all fell out, fell into the blood, and sank. Some ordinary magic weapons were contaminated by the blood and were useless. Only the ninety-nine and eighty-one Xuanyin beast-gathering banners were the treasures of the magic way. They were not afraid of filth and still floated on the blood. Before they could meet, they laughed wildly. The arrogant Ji Yin Taoist ended up with his soul and body destroyed.

"Disciple has no choice but to start a killing spree today!"

Yuan Yuan Zhenren looked east and sighed. At this time, Ling Ruoshui was beside Yuan Yuan Zhenren. He could see clearly that the more than 300 disciples and more than a dozen old Taoists in the late stage of transformation were no match for Ji Yin Lao Dao. He died in the blink of an eye, and his soul and body were destroyed. Ling Ruoshui looked at Yuan Yuan Zhenren again, and there was only one thought in his mind: "Master is so handsome!"

Zhou Qing was excited, and there was only one thought: "This thing is genuine, not a fake, it is genuine. It is actually in Kunlun's hands. With the protection of the apricot yellow flag and this thing attacking, isn't this old Taoist Yuan Yuan invincible? Even I am afraid that I can't do anything. Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, there is trouble, there is trouble, the master of Da Zizai Palace is accurate! Seven Treasure Wonderful Tree, Seven Treasure Wonderful Tree, can you defeat these two magic weapons? I really want to see it, but unfortunately, this Zhenren never does things without confidence, not to mention that there are so many people in Kunlun."

Zhou Qing looked at the ninety-nine and eighty-one Xuanyin Banners floating on the bloody water, thinking in his heart, envious, and secretly regretful: "The Yuanshen of the old Taoist Jiyin was also destroyed, what a pity, it would be great if it was used as a sacrifice! The Xuanyin Banner has lost its owner, how can I get it?"

As soon as the old Taoist Jiyin died, a loophole appeared in the Blood River Formation, and the space cracks closed immediately. The pouring blood rain lost its source and stopped. The sky was clear, but the mountains of the entire Kunlun Cave Heaven were still dark red, and the blood water rolling at the foot of the mountain did not recede.

"How did Jiyin die!" Dharma King Xuanyuan was horrified when he saw the blood river formation stop and the Xuanyin Banner floating on the blood. Zhenren Yuanyuan saw that the blood rain stopped, so he simply gave up and offered up the gourd again. Dharma King Xuanyuan was sharp-eyed and saw that there was no gourd among the thousands of yellow lotus flowers. He immediately understood what was going on. He screamed in fear and shouted, "Borrow a shape to replace a body!" He grabbed one of the blood demons in front of him, and he called out to the toad, set up a ray of blood light, rolled up the Xuanyin Banner, and fled out of the cave.
