Buddha is the Tao

There is no age in the mountains, and the years pass by leisurely. It has been thirty or forty years since Zhou Qing used his great magic power to move the fairy palace to the earthly fairy world. It has been surprisingly smooth, peaceful, and calm.

After coming to the earthly fairy world, the people of Da Zizai Palace realized the benefits and didn't want to go back. But it didn't matter. Zhou Qing had occupied nine mountains and a radius of nearly 100,000 miles. Although a mere 100,000 miles is not a hair for the earthly fairy world, it is simply heaven and earth compared to the human world.

The Da Zizai Palace in the human world does not even have one tenth of a mountain. Zhou Qing specially gave up a mountain to the Da Zizai Palace. The demon soldiers had already built a gorgeous palace. But there is no need to build a cave house. The Da Zizai Palace can accommodate nearly a thousand people, which is more than enough.

In the first one or two years, all the disciples were surprised, but as time went by, their surprise faded. After seeing the demon soldiers led by the poisonous dragon, they all practiced hard. Xiang Hui and others, when they first practiced, missed the human world. Under Zhou Qing's instruction, they went back a few times. After the comparison, they immediately knew the filth of the human world. They had no regrets, so they stopped going and practiced hard to seek transcendence.

Although the years in the mountains were leisurely and carefree, Zhou Qing had no time to spare. Every day, he was either tempering his soul, condensing his body, or building a cauldron to make elixirs. Since the battle with the Bull Demon King, Zhou Qing deeply felt his own shortcomings. At his level, to improve his strength, one is to refine magic weapons for assistance, and the other is to practice hard. There is no other choice.

Originally, among Zhou Qing's disciples, besides himself, only Lan Shen had achieved the status of a celestial being, of course not counting his mount. But in the past twenty or thirty years, Yunxia, ​​Wen Lanxin, and the big and small foxes had all passed through nine great celestial tribulations, escaped from karma, and were only waiting to refine their primordial spirits into infants, which was the true status of celestial beings.

Only Liao Xiaojin was the bloodline of the ancient great wizard Chi You, and the Heavenly Dao Scroll passed on by Zhou Qing was created by combining the consciousness of the ancient ancestor wizards, and actually developed the terrifying power contained in his Chi You bloodline. The ancient great wizard was born not in the five elements, and also jumped out of the six paths. When Liao Xiaojin practiced, he did not have celestial tribulations like the other brothers.

Since the power in his bloodline was triggered, Liao Xiaojin has been in seclusion for thirty years, refining his own Chi You bloodline according to the Heavenly Dao Scroll, and has not yet come out of seclusion.

Zhou Qing was clear in his mind, and he had achieved something unexpected. As long as Liao Xiaojin refined Chiyou's bloodline, and with time, his achievements would far exceed those of his other disciples, especially his physical body, which might be comparable to Bai Qi's immortal body.

When Zhou Qing became a Taoist, he did not suffer from the heavenly tribulation because of the condensed karma, but the subsequent skills were incomplete. Although Zhou Qing changed it, there were still great hidden dangers. It was not like the Heavenly Dao Volume that he later comprehended, which was in accordance with the orthodoxy of Taoism, and all disciples under the sect would also suffer from the heavenly tribulation.

I wanted to practice the Heavenly Dao Volume myself, but the golden body and karma merged together and could not be driven away at all, so I could not practice it.

"Humph, in this case, I don't know whether the Taoist Zhunti in the dark is harming me or helping me."

The credit of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills cannot be buried for being able to achieve the position of a celestial being in a short period of time, but now due to karma, I can no longer make any progress.

"Karma can hurt others as well as oneself. To cultivate immortality, you must eventually get rid of karma. Although the method of condensing karma yourself is a trick, I am afraid you will never be able to get a glimpse of the position of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian."

On a golden altar in the Immortal Mansion, there is a square of a hundred feet in size, and twelve Dutian Pluto flags are inserted around it. The huge flags flutter naturally without wind, which is very strange. Two Zhou Qings sit cross-legged, facing each other, with their eyes slightly closed. One Zhou Qing is dark gold, with two black and white relics hovering above his head, and the other Zhou Qing is no different from an ordinary person.

The head of the Dutian Demon God appeared on each of the twelve Dutian flags. Each of them opened its bloody mouth and spewed out a jet of black flame, which completely enveloped Zhou Qing's golden body relics. The devil fire was blazing and burning with a sizzling sound. Zhou Qing's face was wooden, but his body was twitching slightly, obviously in great pain. The two relics were the transformation of Zhou Qing's entire soul, the foundation of his life. If there was any mistake in burning, his soul and body would be destroyed. It would be so painful to be roasted with the Dutian devil fire that it would be more painful than trying all the tortures of the eighteen levels of hell.

As early as ten years ago, Zhou Qing had a thorough understanding. No matter how he practiced, he could not make any progress and would stay at this stage forever. He knew it was a problem of karma. As the saying goes, success is due to karma, and failure is also due to karma.

Of course, Zhou Qing couldn't just let it go. To change this situation, there was only one way, which was to drive away karma, return to the original state, and regain self. However, karma and Zhou Qing's soul had become one. If karma was gone, the soul would disappear. There was no way to eliminate it.

Fortunately, with the ancient magic weapon such as the Dutian Pluto Flag in hand, Zhou Qing accumulated the remaining power of the twelve ancestor witches. With great wisdom, great perseverance, and great supernatural powers, Zhou Qing used the Dutian Demon Fire to forge his own relics and soul every day, separating the karma a little bit. As long as the soul was separated from the golden body, it could be attached to the physical body and practice the Heavenly Dao Volume again.

In the past ten years, Zhou Qing didn't know how much pain he had suffered from the burning of the Dutian Demon Fire every day. The Dutian Demon Fire caused great damage to the soul. In the past ten years, Zhou Qing's skills not only did not improve, but also declined a lot. But if it wasn't like this, there would be no way to make further progress in the future.

In the dark, the devil fire became more and more intense. In the end, it actually wrapped up the two Zhou Qings and turned them into a huge black sphere. The huge and terrifying power made the entire Immortal Mansion and even the entire Black Wind Mountain tremble.

Outside the Immortal Mansion, Zhou Qing's five major disciples, except Liao Xiaojin who was in seclusion on another mountain and did not come out, the big and small foxes, Wen Lanxin, and Lan Shen were all nervously watching the movements of the Immortal Mansion. Yunxia and the Lord of the Great Freedom Palace were also outside. Yunxia walked around, obviously very anxious.

"Yunxia, ​​you have already become a celestial immortal, why can't you control your mind? Master Zhou has endured the pain of ten years of devil fire refining with great wisdom and perseverance. Today is the day of perfect merit, so you should be happy."

The Lord of the Great Freedom Palace was originally a strong Taoist. Although he practiced the magic formula of his own sect, he also survived the heavenly tribulation and achieved the immortal way after more than 30 years of hard practice.

Yunxia couldn't listen to him at all. She was so anxious that she kept walking back and forth.

I don't know how long it took, but I heard a slight crackling sound. Everything was quiet and the trembling stopped. Inside the Immortal Mansion, the black giant ball composed of magic fire broke. The Dutian magic fire was still retracted into the flag. The twelve demon gods also shrank back. The black and white relics kept spinning. Two white lights slowly penetrated from it and condensed into an entity. It was Zhou Qing's soul. This soul looked the same as Zhou Qing's body. There was no difference.

"Finally succeeded!" As soon as the soul came out, the two relics immediately returned to the golden body. The whole golden body was lifeless and dead silent. Zhou Qing sighed, and the soul shook, turned into a white light and drilled into the body. Without moving his hands and feet, he grabbed in the air and a gourd appeared in his hand. He poured all the pills and ate more than a hundred golden pills.

Crack! Crack! Crack! The sound of the joints was like sifting soybeans. Zhou Qing used the elixir to replenish his depleted spirit, and immediately began to practice according to the Heavenly Dao Volume he created.

The physical body is naturally not as strong as the golden body. As early as thirty years ago, Zhou Qing had this plan. He gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the five elements of energy, placed the physical body in the center of the formation to refine it, and used immortal pills and talismans from time to time to bless it. In the past twenty years, I don't know how much spiritual energy has accumulated in the body. In the next ten years, Zhou Qing used magic fire to refine his relics while refining the spiritual energy of his physical body. I don't know how much effort it took.

After thirty years of hard work to seize the fortune of heaven and earth, I don't know how strong the physical body is. Zhou Qing practiced all the way, and his physical body sometimes expanded to a height of a hundred feet, and sometimes shrank to a small three inches. It was wrapped in colorful light and colorful light rain. In an instant, it came to fruition and restored the power of thirty years ago.

Zhou Qing got rid of the bondage of karma, and his whole body was relaxed. With one breath, the spiritual energy of the entire earthly immortal world rolled in. With one exercise, it was dispersed and merged into the flesh. Zhou Qing changed into a hundred feet tall, with black scales all over his body, a python head and a human body, and two black dragons under his feet. He was actually the same as the ferocious demon god.

With a grab, the ground of the immortal mansion made of Shoushan red copper mixed with countless divine iron diamonds was dug out. Its surface was as smooth as a mirror, just like a sharp knife cutting tofu. The countless restrictions on the ground were also broken cleanly in this grab.

This is purely the power of the flesh, without using any mana, and Zhou Qing finally understood the horror of the ancestor witch. This magical power of heavenly transformation was understood by Zhou Qing himself, and he could transform into the body of the ancestor witch. Zhou Qing himself was a little reluctant to perform it, and the energy required was extremely huge, but in terms of tyranny, it was far more powerful than the golden body.

"So powerful, no wonder this guy can break Mount Buzhou."

After filling the hole and re-arranging the restrictions, Zhou Qing changed into twelve images in succession, all of which were the appearances of the twelve ancestor witches. Zhou Qing was able to change back to his original appearance.

At this time, the golden body actually began to melt, and the entire altar was flowing with dark gold liquid, with two relics, one black and one white.

Zhou Qing clapped his hands, and a green bamboo stick rushed to the center of the altar and lay horizontally in the air. Following Zhou Qing's spell, the dark gold liquid was all sucked into the bamboo stick. In the end, the black and white relics also entered the two ends of the bamboo stick respectively.

The golden light shot out, then dimmed, and finally there was another green bamboo stick.

Zhou Qing took the bamboo stick and went out.

At the same time, outside the thirty-three heavens, there was a space that was almost void. No one knew how far away it was, and no one knew where it was. Suddenly, a fairy mountain appeared. On the mountain was a cave, and next to it stood a stone tablet with ten large characters on it, which read "Lingtai Fangcun Mountain Xieyue Sanxing Cave".

In the cave, there were layers of deep pavilions and jade buildings, layers of golden buildings and green palaces. The world was vast and endless, with flowers and rain flying one after another, patches of bodhi trees, and huge Eight Virtues Ponds. There were golden-bearded abalones shaking their heads and tails, and yellow dragons rolling, and there were boys guarding them.

Until the center of the cave, there was a nine-grade lotus platform, on which sat a Taoist with a yellow face and a thin body, with his hair tied up and his temples pulled. The Taoist began to preach the Tao, and hundreds of immortals were listening below. When the Taoist was preaching, flowers fell from the sky, and strange fragrance lingered, filling the infinite world.

When the Taoist was talking about the key moment, golden lotuses emerged from the Eight Virtues Pond, swaying in the wind, and were also listening to the Tao.

The Taoist suddenly stopped and remained silent. The immortals below were surprised but did not dare to ask.

"How could he escape with such great wisdom and perseverance?" The Taoist muttered to himself, and then ordered a boy beside him, "Go and call your senior brother."

The boy knew what he meant and went. After a while, the boy on the Golden Lotus Bridge of Bade Pond brought a Taoist with a faint flash of green, yellow, red, white and black behind him. He came to the stage and greeted the Taoist.

"Now there are some loopholes. You should go to the lower world." The Taoist said.

"Respect the decree!" The Taoist below received the decree, left the cave, turned into a five-color rainbow, passed through the heaven, and went straight down to the earthly immortal world.

The top of the Black Wind Mountain is the immortal palace, and below is a round and shiny bluestone flat land. Below is the blue and clear Poison Dragon Pond. A rainbow-like stone bridge spans the pond and leads to the edge of the Black Wind Mountain.

At this time, the Poison Dragon Pond had been expanded to a radius of a thousand miles by the three-tailed blackfish, a coolie. It was not at all like a pond, but more like a large lake or sea. Fish and shrimps shuttled in the pond, and the algae were dense. There were several springs with huge splashes of water, rushing up to a height of ten feet. There were golden carps rushing up with the water and then falling down, with their golden scales glittering, which was very beautiful. The whole Black Wind Mountain was full of vitality.

Li Rong and Dai Jingrong were standing on the bridge, followed by several spiritual boys. The two girls sprinkled food mixed with elixir, watching the fish and shrimps below scramble to grab it, jump up, and have a lot of fun.

In the Immortal Mansion, Zhou Qing was sitting on the golden bed to nourish his soul. In addition to karma, Zhou Qing practiced the Heavenly Dao Volume and made rapid progress. With the help of elixirs, he has now fully recovered his skills in his heyday, and his body has become even stronger after practicing the Heavenly Dao, surpassing Bai Qi.

Changing the situation of no progress in thirty years, Zhou Qing's Taoism is now slowly increasing every day. With the harmony of his soul, after a while, I am afraid that he will be able to fight against the Bull Demon King without the help of the Dutian Demon God.

"Master, the eldest sister wants to see you!" A boy next to him came to report.

"Let her come in!" Zhou Qing said with his eyes open.

Seeing Wen Lanxin coming in, Zhou Qing asked, "What's the matter?"

"Master, over the years, the Earth Spirit Son of the human world has successively sent 8,000 boys with excellent bones. We already have more than 10,000 disciples in the Tiandao Sect, but we don't have enough flying swords and magic weapons to assist in cultivation. There was a mine in the surrounding mountains that could be mined, but it's almost gone. If this continues, the new disciples will not even have the materials to refine flying swords. Also, I heard from the Earth Spirit Son that the Xuanyuan Dharma King actually ascended, and I don't know if he has come to this world." Wen Lanxin said.

"I've known this for a long time. King Xuanyuan is alone, and you can easily defeat him now. Don't worry about it. As for the mineral veins, it's no big deal. You can ask Dulong to grab a few more hills." Zhou Qing said.

"However, Wandu Mountain and Shepan Mountain have noticed Dulong. If they expand further, it will inevitably cause trouble. Unfortunately, the Tang Dynasty has thousands of huge mineral veins. If we get one, we can at least create a million flying swords. Unfortunately, the forces of various parties in the Tang Dynasty are intertwined. It's not so easy for us to get involved. Otherwise, even disciples can be recruited from them." Wen Lanxin said.

"This is not difficult, but with my current status, it is a bit troublesome. When your junior brother refines Chiyou's blood and comes out of retreat, I will take them there. As the Emperor of Gou Chen, I have a high position in the heavens, so I naturally want to share a piece of the pie. I don't need to worry about the Ten Thousand Poisons Mountain and the Snake Mountain. I will ask the Poison Dragon to come forward. Previously, I wanted to refine karma and didn't want to cause trouble. Now that the task is completed, I will naturally take action. When I thoroughly comprehend the magical power, if I can refine the twelve ancestor witches into my body, then even the Three Pure Ones will not be able to do anything to me." Zhou Qing said with a smile.

"Well, the Poison Dragon's cultivation is higher than mine, and the 50,000 demon soldiers are also very well trained. This earthly immortal world is indeed a good place, Master, no wonder all the cultivators want to ascend." Wen Lanxin sighed.

"That's not the case. The human world before was better than this world. Master received the spiritual imprint of the twelve witch ancestors, and he knew some of the situations in the ancient times." Zhou Qing narrowed his eyes, recalled, and was about to tell Wen Lanxin about it.

Suddenly, he felt a huge suction force coming from the dark, and the five elements of the immortal palace and the spiritual energy of the world seemed to be sucked away by something, and they flowed out rapidly, and actually rolled up a vortex in the air that could be seen by the naked eye. Several boys outside were unstable and fell down.

"Huh!? Not good!" Zhou Qing was puzzled for a moment, and then turned into a golden light and left the immortal palace.
