Buddha is the Tao

"Calamity, calamity, I was born in the beginning of chaos, I got the Tao during the Tianhuang years, I escaped a calamity thousands of years ago, but I didn't expect that I couldn't escape it today!" Hearing Zhou Qing's words, Kong Xuan shook his neck repeatedly, and the bronze bell on it jingled, but he was not afraid at all.

Tianhuang years is the name of the ancient times when Donghuang Taiyi ruled the three realms.

Kong Xuan's expression made Zhou Qing a little strange.

"This Kong Xuan, I'm afraid he is a little mentally abnormal, I want to refine him, he is not afraid, I heard that he is the first peacock since the beginning of the world, the five-color divine light is unique, no one can cultivate it, but this guy is much more profound than me, if it weren't for the death of his Dharma body by the Zhuxian Sword Formation, how could I have picked up such a great bargain."

Zhou Qing stopped laughing, thinking for a while, his face was uncertain, and he didn't speak for a long time. Kong Xuan also didn't move, waiting for Zhou Qing to speak.

After a while, Zhou Qing finally spoke: "I have heard of your reputation and know how powerful you are. You are the great saint of the demon clan and the Peacock King Bodhisattva. You are the best in the three realms and dominate the universe. It is not that I am cruel, but I have no choice. You must know my situation, otherwise I would not have come to grab the clock and been plotted against. I was also plotted against and have only escaped from the control until now. I am just trying to survive in the cracks. My life will be destroyed in an instant and is not in my own hands. You might as well help me. With your five-color divine light, I have a much greater chance of saving my life. Maybe I can jump out of the chessboard and become the one who controls the chess piece. By then, I will have the ability to refine the earth, fire, water and wind again and change the world. At that time, I will still return your original appearance. How about it?"

Zhou Qing did not forcefully refine Kong Xuan. After all, although the other party only had his primordial spirit and was subdued by his sneak attack, he was still a centipede that was still alive. In addition, his Taoism was far superior to his own, and he was calm and composed when he spoke. He was afraid that there would be some changes. Zhou Qing did not dare to act rashly when he could not figure out the specific situation. Who knew if he would be tricked again?

Kong Xuan heard Zhou Qing's words and surprisingly closed his eyes for a while, then suddenly said: "Well, you still have hope and some means. My five-color divine light is a point of innate chaos. When it was divided into five elements, I was nurtured in it and grew into five feathers on my tail. I don't know how much time it took me to refine it, shed my body, and get a sincere and kind body. All the hard work of tens of thousands of years of cultivation was spent on it. If not, how could you compare with my current Taoism."

Kong Xuan suddenly laughed again and said: "You open this bell, and I will separate from my own true spirit and rely on it in the bell, so I won't die. Although there is no hope for the immortal way, there is still the way of the gods. I will give you this five-color divine light to see what kind of trouble you can make. I am happy to watch the fun. If you don't, I have my own way to make you fetch water with a bamboo basket and end up with empty joy."

"Oh! Hehe. Hehe. I have long known that the Peacock King is not so easy to deal with, but I will do as you say, so that you can see my future methods, so that you don't say that I am a stingy person. It is better for you to escape from the true spirit by yourself than to be refined by me. There is always hope. There is always someone who can restore you outside the thirty-three heavens. Without the five-color divine light, I am not afraid of you making any big waves. If you want to stay in the bell, I am afraid that you will make trouble and harm me. You can go back to your old master and say that I owe him a favor, and now I will return it." Kong Xuan smiled and said, "You are a person who is unwilling to suffer losses. Nothing can be calculated against you. I will do as you say, I will do as you say. Now we are restraining each other. There is a period of peace. It depends on your chance. Don't be alone. This five-color divine light is not of much use to me. It is not a pity to give it to you. Instead, you will have a leisurely life. I am just afraid that you are not good enough in Taoism. You can collect but not control it, which will backfire." Kong Xuan smiled and said, "You are a person who is unwilling to suffer losses. I can't calculate you. I will do as you say. Now we are restraining each other. There is a period of peace. It depends on your chance. Don't be alone. This five-color divine light is not of much use to me. It is not a pity to give it to you. Instead, you will have a leisure time. I am just afraid that you are not good enough in Taoism. You can collect but not control it, which will backfire." "Don't worry about this. The problem of Taoism is my business. Do you want to get out of this situation by yourself, or should I help you?" Zhou Qing said with a smile.

Kong Xuan did not answer, and Zhou Qing did not say anything more. He took off the bell. A colorful light appeared on Kong Xuan's head. The true spirit broke through the red crown on his head, and went straight up to the thirty-third heaven without a shadow or form.

As the true spirit consciousness left, the huge peacock soul gradually dissipated. Zhou Qing hurriedly shook the bamboo stick, and with a swishing sound, the peacock soul was collected into the bamboo stick.

Once the pure soul was absorbed, a few things were left behind, which were five three-foot-long feathers, like swords, each with its own color, divided into five colors: blue, yellow, red, white, and black. They flowed faintly, but did not radiate out, but flowed inside. Once Kong Xuan's true soul left, it was equivalent to giving up all his Taoist skills, leaving only pure consciousness. These five feathers naturally lost their spiritual energy and became dead things.

People who have cultivated the immortal way and achieved supernatural powers can separate their souls and consciousness. The soul can be destroyed, but the consciousness is invisible and can escape at any time. However, if the soul is lost, it will eventually dissipate, and it cannot be cultivated into the immortal way. In the three realms, there is only one kind of magic weapon that can collect the true spirit, that is, the Conferred God List. If a little true spirit enters the Conferred God List, it will become a god. If it does not enter the Conferred God List, it will really dissipate after a period of time.

Of course, if you cannot cultivate supernatural powers and cannot separate the soul from the consciousness, then once the soul is destroyed, the consciousness will also dissipate.

Picking up the five feathers, his hands sank. The five small feathers seemed as heavy as a mountain. No wonder it was a little inconvenient to swipe them. This was a little spiritual energy produced in the innate time. I don't know how it grew on Kong Xuan. According to the five elements, everything can be collected with one twist. The weight of each feather is at least as heavy as a mountain. Fortunately, Zhou Qing practiced the changes of the way of heaven and had infinite power. He had the magical power to move mountains and rush mountains. Otherwise, he couldn't even pick it up.

A little spiritual light emerged from behind Zhou Qing's head, rolled up the feathers, and looked back. In just a moment, Zhou Qing's back changed.

Originally, there were twelve Pluto flags inserted behind him, with black clouds rolling, and from time to time there were condensed into ferocious demon phantoms, but now there were five-colored lights flashing in it. Kong Xuan even got rid of his true spirit, and the countless restrictions on the five feathers disappeared naturally, just like a treasure house without a door, so Zhou Qing succeeded in cultivation in an instant.

"You are still better at talking. Otherwise, it will take me at least a few years to separate Kong Xuan's consciousness. There might be some unexpected changes. I wonder how Zhunti Taoist can save you. Do you want to ask Yuanshi Tianzun for the Conferred God List? Even if you are included in the Conferred God List and achieve the way of God, you are not a threat to me. Zhunti Taoist is afraid that he can't lose face if he deals with me personally. He may also be hesitant. Didn't Kong Xuan say that they should restrain each other? They are not good people. I still have to believe in myself." Zhou Qing thought secretly.

With a flicker of his body, Zhou Qing used the earth escape to fly to his base, Black Wind Mountain. Zhou Qing already had some understanding of what happened during this period, and he was no longer confused like before. Because of this, Zhou Qing felt more and more uneasy, and the more he thought about it, the more he understood. What happened before was like several invisible big hands, secretly controlling him. Now he had vaguely escaped from the control of one of the big hands, and he was afraid that the crisis was about to come, and he was completely unable to resist it. This feeling kept rippling in Zhou Qing's heart for a long time.

"How? Can I get out?"

Zhou Qing was suddenly a little exhausted while walking and thinking.

Kong Xuan's Dharma body is a real thing, and there is also this Yuanshen. Although Kong Xuan has spent most of his time refining feathers since he was born, his Yuanshen is also incredibly powerful. This bamboo stick originally absorbed the Dharma body gold liquid, and the twelve centipedes could not contain it. The whole bamboo stick was filled with it, so that even the emerald green color turned into golden yellow, losing its original appearance. It was too arrogant, and Zhou Qing did not like it. Now it has absorbed Kong Xuan's Yuanshen, and it has really reached the saturation level.

Only by going back and slowly tempering it, this bamboo stick can really be used and become a good weapon.

The purpose of Zhou Qing's current practice is to control the flesh as soon as possible so that it can accommodate more power. When it reaches a certain level, the power of the twelve ancestors' clones will be introduced into the body, completely refined, and achieve the supreme mysterious skill. At present, if you want to take a shortcut and improve your cultivation, there is only one way to go.

He hung the bronze bell on the bamboo stick again, and threw out Dragon Heaven and Dragon Earth from the Pluto Flag and sent them into the bronze bell.

The bronze bell was like the Mountain and River Society Map, with its own world, but it was not as colorful as the Mountain and River Society Map, just a chaos, and could only put people in it like the Jiezi Space. It was endless, with faint flashes of the sun, moon and stars. Zhou Qing himself couldn't figure it out, as if there was something hidden in it. But after carefully urging the trend of the magic power, there was no clue at all, so Zhou Qing had to go back and comprehend it carefully.

Those 20,000 elite naval forces were all first-rate demons and fairies, and they were quite a force. Of course Zhou Qing had to subdue them one by one. This Long Tianlongdi had good aptitude and a strong body. After practicing the Changes of the Heavenly Dao, I am afraid his strength would be greatly improved. Zhou Qing naturally had a way to subdue him. The magic weapons and elixirs of several halls of the Jiao Demon King were among them. Zhou Qing had no time to check them. Anyway, the harvest of this trip was so great that it was incredible. However, Zhou Qing did not feel happy at all, but felt a little depressed.

After hiding the five-color divine light and the Pluto flag, Zhou Qing sped up a bit. Now he missed his small Black Wind Mountain and his disciples.

When he came here, Zhou Qing used all his strength without regard for the consequences. This time, he was far from that speed when he returned. He used earth escape for a whole day and night before he arrived at the Tang Dynasty in Nanzhanbuzhou.

The Tang Dynasty has countless cities and countless populations, which is a few more than the earth. It is extremely prosperous. To be honest, Zhou Qing has been in the earthly immortal world for forty years, but he has not been to the secular world to see the prosperity of the ancient secular world. But now he is eager to go home and does not want to stay. He hides his body, rushes into the sky, and turns into a long rainbow and walks towards Black Wind Mountain.

There is actually a cultivator with profound Taoism in these cities. Zhou Qing noticed it in an instant. One of the cultivators seemed to feel something and used his divine thoughts to investigate, but there was no way to investigate. Zhou Qing was already thousands of miles away.

"Huh!? Isn't that the Bull Demon King? And who is that person next to him? He's even more impressive!"

Zhou Qing turned into a long rainbow and flew up to the sky. He saw a cloud of auspicious people flying westwards in the distance. They were on the same road as Zhou Qing. One of them was very majestic. It was the Bull Demon King, riding a water-avoiding golden-eyed beast.

This water-avoiding golden-eyed beast was as big as a giant elephant. Its skin was like gold foil, flashing a soft light like gold, but it gave people a very powerful feeling. Its golden tail was as thick as a teacup and three meters long. Its two eyes were as big as a bowl. The eyeballs were also golden in color. Only the single horn on its head was white, like sheep-fat jade.

It is this horn that can separate the sea water, hence its name. This water-avoiding golden-eyed beast is a unique creature in the Northern Luju Continent. It is very difficult to capture, and its strength is also very powerful, not inferior to that of immortals. It is extremely fast, and can only be tamed when it is young. Adults come and go like the wind. Even if they are captured, they cannot be used as mounts. If they are slightly careless, they will run away or commit suicide. They cannot bear the humiliation. Those who can ride the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast are all symbols of status.

The Bull Demon King did not bring the demon king with him, but dozens of young women, with colorful clothes and fragrant breezes. Behind the Bull Demon King, there was a water-avoiding golden-eyed beast with two people sitting on it, a boy and a girl. The boy was about a teenager, born with a powdery jade, wearing a collar and a gold ring, wearing a red bellyband, very cute. The girl was not very old, only about 20 years old, wearing a fairy dress and light gauze, elegant and magnificent.

"This Bull Demon King is going to visit relatives! He brought his family with him!"

Zhou Qing was puzzled and a little amused, but what surprised him was another group of people. In front of the Bull Demon King, there was a team of chariots, with a canopy, flags, and treasure banners. There was a row of men and a row of women, each with one white and eight people. In particular, in front of the chariots, there were nine yellow dragons pulling the chariots.

The yellow dragons swallowed clouds and exhaled mist, supporting the chariot, and were not in a hurry to get on the road. They moved forward leisurely in the clouds. The one in front of the chariot was the tallest, and there were several more behind it. No one knew who was sitting on it. Seeing that the Bull Demon King was behind him, he must be a powerful person. Although Zhou Qing was not afraid, he did not want to cause trouble, especially since he did not know the details, and he did not dare to act rashly.

"Looking at this momentum, it seems to be heading towards the Two Realms Pass. Is it going to cause trouble for my Black Wind Mountain?"

Zhou Qing watched quietly and felt that something was wrong. He and the Bull Demon King had some conflicts. Not only did they fight, but they also robbed the innate treasure such as the banana fan. If the Bull Demon King went to the Black Wind Mountain, he would definitely go to him. The power of the Buddhist sect has retreated, and the Bull Demon King would not be stupid enough to enter Xiniu Hezhou and go to the opponent's lair. There is only his own power in the area of ​​the Two Realms Pass.

But looking at this momentum, he is not going to cause trouble. He didn't even bring soldiers. Zhou Qing was even more confused.

"No matter, no matter, I still have to remain unchanged to see what he is. I have cultivated the Five Colors Divine Light and got the bronze bell. Even if he comes to cause trouble for me, he must come and not leave." Zhou Qing calculated, quietly bowed his body, used the Heavenly Dao to change, transformed into the Ancestral Witch, moved his flesh wings, and disappeared. An hour later, he appeared in front of the Black Wind Mountain.

Liao Xiaojin was leading the demon soldiers to practice martial arts when he suddenly saw a ray of light falling and a figure appeared. It was Zhou Qing, and he could not help but be overjoyed.

With a wave of his hand, Zhou Qing said without waiting for Liao Xiaojin to speak: "Gather the demon soldiers and hide them in the mountains. Don't show up. Then call your senior and junior sisters into the fairy palace. I have something to say."

Liao Xiaojin hurriedly listened to the order, and Zhou Qing returned to the Yuzhu Fairy Palace. After a while, the big and small foxes, Wen Lanxin, all came to the hall. Yunxia also came out and was naturally overjoyed to see Zhou Qing.

"Nothing happened recently!" Zhou Qing asked Wen Lanxin.

"Nothing happened. Junior Brother Xiaojin has suppressed Shepan Mountain so that they dare not come out. With Banana Fan and Blood God, we have the upper hand in the melee. Now Junior Brother Xiaojin has collected three thousand mountaintops and is stepping up to ask the 500,000 demon soldiers below to mine the spiritual veins and minerals. The disciples under the sect are also making flying swords and magic weapons, magic weapons and armor, but the place is too big, we are a little short of manpower, and it is a bit difficult to take care of them." Wen Lanxin said.

"That's good, there are indeed a few less disciples under the sect, all of you come out with me."

Zhou Qing went out of the sect and stood on the square in front of the door. He threw the copper bell in his hand up, and covered the entire Black Wind Mountain. He recited a spell, and the copper suddenly disappeared. The sky was still sunny and white clouds were floating, but there was an extra layer of faint yellow light.

Covered with the copper bell, no matter what he attacked, it didn't move at all, like an iron barrel. Zhou Qing was relieved. See what the Bull Demon King and his gang are going to do.

"Master, there is someone outside claiming to be the Holy Mother Wu Dang of Jiejiao and wants to see Emperor Gou Chen!" Zhou Qing was discussing something with his disciples when a disciple came to report.

"Oh! I was wondering why the show was even bigger than that of the Bull Demon King. It turned out to be this person. Why is he so polite? He asked for an audience, so I can't lose my manners. Let's see what tricks he has."

Zhou Qing led his disciples out of the mountain gate. Sure enough, the carriage they saw just now stopped in mid-air. With a sound of jade, a Taoist nun came down, followed by seven beautiful women. The Bull Demon King also got off his mount and followed among them.
