Chapter 685 Lucky Ghost
While the Tianxing Shenzhou was speeding, Zhou Qing said to Yan Kuangtu:

"The Eight Dragon Buddha Fire sounds like a kind of strange fire from heaven and earth. Have you ever heard of it?"

Yan Kuangtu shook his head, "I have never heard of the name of this kind of flame."

"Then we can only go there and take a look."

Zhou Qing was thinking in his heart. He didn't expect to encounter such a thing here by chance. He actually heard the news about a treasure that was suspected to be the strange fire of heaven and earth. He had to get involved.

Just now, when Zhou Qing learned the name of the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire from the sword-wielding Taoist, he sent a message to Yan Kuangtu, saying that he needed these magical flames for practicing Taoism, so he wanted to go and take a look.

Yan Kuangtu had no objection and was willing to go with Zhou Qing, so Zhou Qing directly stated that they also came for the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire and were heading there at the moment.

Ever since the Earth Fire Seal refined the Nine Nether Divine Fire obtained from the Tomb of Ghosts and Gods, it has not had a good meal since.

Now there is news about the strange fire, and it is nearby, so it cannot be missed.

"Eight Dragon Buddha Fire, it sounds like it should be a kind of yang fire..."

Buddha fire is mostly born in places related to Buddhist and Taoist traditions. Although such Buddha fire is also natural, it usually also has some human factors.

For example, it may be bred based on the burial place of a certain Buddhist or Taoist master, so this kind of flame generally has a strong specificity.

And most of the Buddha fire is also of yang nature.

The strange fires of heaven and earth that Zhou Qing's Earth Fire Seal is now refining are five kinds of Yin fire and four kinds of Yang fire.

If this Eight Dragon Buddha Fire is truly Yang Fire, then it can be refined by him and will not cause an imbalance between Yin and Yang.

The Tianxing Shenzhou followed the tracks of the others and soon arrived at a place where many living beings gathered, and then slowly descended.

This is a huge mountain that runs across the mountain. From a distance, you can see the general appearance of the mountain. It looks like a giant lying on its side.

Its "belly" is round and bulging, with "a hand" placed on it, and on that "hand" there are many round mountains connected together.

The other "hand" of the "giant" is placed on the "head", and it really looks like a sleeping Buddha with Buddhist beads on his hand.

The name Sleeping Buddha Mountain comes from this.

At this moment, Zhou Qing could see many figures moving around on the Sleeping Buddha, flying up and down from time to time, constantly changing positions, as if searching for something.

There were also many flying boats, magic swords, flying carpets and other objects suspended in the air, surrounding the Sleeping Buddha Mountain, and there were people on them.

After a brief observation, Zhou Qing felt slightly relieved.

"It seems that the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire has not been taken away yet."

Since it hasn't been taken away by anyone yet, he has a chance and it depends on his ability to fight for it.

The arrival of Tianxing Shenzhou also attracted the attention of some people. After they cast their eyes over, their faces changed and their pupils shrank in almost the time it took to breathe.

"Yan Kuangtu, Zhou Qing, why are they here?!"

"How could the news of the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire spread so quickly that even people in Hanzhou knew about it?"

"The Crazy Immortal of Xuandu and the Exiled Immortal of Xuandu have come here together. This is trouble."

"..."

Those who recognized Zhou Qing and the others were whispering to each other, and their hearts were already very heavy.

Zhou Qing looked at the people who were hovering in the air above Sleeping Foshan, and his gaze paused when it moved to a certain position.

He saw a man he had seen before.

Tianxiang Temple, Juezhen.

Zhou Qing knew this monk when he and Ao Xuanwei went to Jinghai before.

After thinking about it, Zhou Qing controlled the Shenzhou towards Juezhen and his group.

"Master Juezhen, we meet again."

"Donor Zhou."

Juezhen bowed, and the people around him also looked over.

Zhou Qing smiled and asked, "Masters of Tianxiang Temple, are you here for the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire?"

Although he didn't know the current situation here, it didn't matter. The people here just happened to be unaware of Zhou Qing's situation.

"Exactly."

A young venerable monk from Tianxiang Temple looked at the two of them. Although he was a monk, he did not have the air of a Buddha. His eyes were sharp and he could be described as handsome and heroic.

"I have heard that since you two are here for the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire, I hope you can teach me after you find the trace of the Buddha Fire."

Everyone has the same goal, and unless someone is willing to give up, competition is inevitable.

Although this person speaks bluntly, he is also very truthful.

"Easy to say."

Zhou Qing smiled and got some information from Jue Wen's words.

Not only has the Eight Dragons Wild Fire not been taken away, its current location has not been discovered.

Yan Kuangtu just looked at Jue Wen's words, and after probably understanding his strength, he looked away.

Such behavior, coupled with Yan Kuangtu's expression, makes it hard not to feel that she seems to be very disdainful of what she hears.

Jue Wen stared at Yan Kuangtu and said nothing in the end, but he was actually a little annoyed in his heart.

Zhou Qing asked Juezhen again, "Master Juezhen, aren't you going to look for the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire?"

"My fellow disciples are already in Sleeping Buddha Mountain."

Zhou Qing nodded, "Then I won't bother you anymore, masters. See you in the future."

The Tianxing Shenzhou passed the group of people from Tianxiang Temple and headed straight for Sleeping Buddha Mountain.

They have fellow disciples who are searching for the Buddha's fire in Sleeping Buddha Mountain and can sit in meditation on Diaoyutai, but Zhou Qing and his group are only three people, so they still have to do these things themselves.

After Zhou Qing and the others left, Na Juewen snorted coldly.

"Yan Kuangtu is indeed as arrogant as the rumors say. If she fights for the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire later, I will teach her a lesson."

Someone nearby reminded: "She has already transformed into a Yin spirit."

"I have been promoted to the second level of True Blood Refining for several months. How could I be afraid of her?"

Zhou Qing and the others didn't know about the conversation among the monks in Tianxiang Temple, and they wouldn't care even if they knew.

After putting away the Tianxing Shenzhou, Zhou Qing and the other two landed on the Sleeping Buddha Mountain.

"This Eight Dragon Buddha Fire should be a divine fire." Zhou Qing said:
"I have observed that among the many practitioners who have gathered at the Sleeping Buddha Mountain, the highest level is only at the Yin God True Blood level."

If it was a fire from the Earth Realm, then there wouldn’t be just these masters coming.

This is beneficial to Zhou Qing. If it is the Earth Realm Flame, he has to snatch it from the mouths of a group of Earth Realm masters, and the probability of him getting it is too small.

Although there are few strange fires in the world, as long as one has strong force, one can always find a few flames below the realm of heaven and earth.

When in Heiyun Town, Lu Qingmo's Earth Fire Seal had swallowed very little of the strange fire of heaven and earth, but that was because she no longer had the channel to obtain it after she left Heiyun Town.

If she had not left Xuandu Temple for more than ten years, her practice of the Earth Fire Seal would have certainly been more than that.

How could the resources in a place like Heiyun Town be compared with those that can be obtained in Xuandu Temple?

Many things are extremely rare when you are in a small place, but when you go to a big place, you will slowly see a lot of them.

This is not because it has become rampant, but because you are standing at a higher position, seeing more, and being able to access more opportunities that were not available before.

The same goes for the environment and masters around you. Your position determines the appearance of the environment.

In Zhou Qing's previous life, there were only a few students from an ordinary small county high school who could be admitted to a key university. But when you actually get admitted and report...

Aren’t there all key students around you?

But the flames in the realm of heaven and earth are different. They are truly rare treasures, and their number is extremely small. Once discovered, the noise they cause will be very loud.

Landing at Sleeping Buddha Mountain, Zhou Qing looked around and said:
"Shall we split up?"

Yan Kuangtu nodded and said, "Okay."

Zhou Qing took out the sound transmission snail and handed it to the two of them. He then looked at Yan Kuangtu and said sincerely:
"Thank you very much for your help this time, Senior Sister Yan. No matter what the final result is, I will never forget this favor."

This is Zhou Qing's business. Yan Kuangtu is willing to come with him and is really helping him. Zhou Qing cannot take all this for granted, as others have no obligation to help him.

"Junior brother, you're welcome."

After Yan Kuangtu finished speaking, he chose a direction and left.

Zhou Qing looked at An Lang again and said seriously:
"If you can't find the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire this time, then don't get on board."

"..."

An Lang snorted. She didn't believe it.

She gave An Lang a puppet to protect her, and then she floated away. An Lang was not weak, and he could participate in such things. He couldn't just lie in the ghost house and sleep when something happened.

I don't ask An Lang to kill a lot of people, but it's always possible to find something.

Zhou Qing also chose another direction to leave, freeing up his energy and carefully sensing every place.

Now for Zhou Qing, except that the perception range is not as good as mental power, mental power is actually more useful.

The fluctuation of mental power is too obvious, and it is something that everyone has. If it is used recklessly to search everywhere, it will be too easy for others to discover it.

But mental power is different, it is extremely hidden. Unless there is another mental power practitioner, it would be impossible to discover it with the cultivation level of people like Shui Foshan.

The most important thing is that mental perception is more subtle and detailed than spiritual perception, and can directly see through some secrets and see through obstacles.

In this era when the inheritance of mental power is scattered, most of the time, those forbidden formations and the like do not have special defenses against mental power.

Of course, this does not mean that other forces cannot stop the mental power. The mental power can do whatever it wants and can flow unimpeded. It just means that it is not as severely targeted and studied as other forces.

There are some places inside Xuandu Temple that Zhou Qing's mental power still cannot penetrate.

"I don't know what properties this Eight Dragon Buddha Fire has, and how it was discovered. I still know too little information."

Zhou Qing pondered, there was nothing he could do about it, his involvement in this matter was an accident, and he had no way of getting the news.

Even if he asked others these questions, no one would answer him. We are all competitors, so who would help the enemy at the information level?

However, Zhou Qing didn't care that he didn't know about the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire, as he had his own ways to find the fire.

Yin and Yang fires were flowing at Zhou Qing's fingertips. He tried to use the mutual induction between the strange fires of heaven and earth to explore the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire.

At the same time, Zhou Qing would form the Earth Fire Seal every time he traveled a certain distance to see if there would be any special gains.

He was walking through Sleeping Buddha Mountain, which looked very strange. On some of the tall trees, there were patterns that looked like images of Buddha, but they were not complete. Only by looking at a few more trees could one roughly piece together the complete image and recognize what the patterns expressed.

You can also often see large but broken and incomplete forests of steles and collapsed pagodas.

Looking at these scenes, Zhou Qing was thoughtful. He thought that this Sleeping Buddha Mountain must have once been the gate of a Buddhist sect, but now it is obviously in ruins, with only ruins left.

Buddhism was not prosperous in Qi territory, but Tianxiang Temple was the most respected temple in Jingzhou after all. Tianxiang Temple had been passed down for a long time and had spread out, which gradually increased the number of Buddhist sects in Jingzhou.

Compared with other states and counties, it is already a Buddhist land. Even those insignificant Buddhist sects in other states and counties will be attracted to come here and pass on their teachings.

It's human nature to work in groups.

Therefore, there are still many Buddhist sects in Jingzhou, some of which are prosperous, while others are naturally declining and destroyed.

The Sleeping Buddha Mountain at present is probably part of the latter. The environment and history here also meet the conditions for nurturing the Buddha's fire.

Walking in the mountains and forests, Zhou Qing stopped at a certain moment.

He now came to a valley, which was a ruin. Parts of it had decayed and weathered, while some of the remaining buildings were covered with moss.

The shape of this valley was rather strange, with five cracks of varying lengths extending out in front. Zhou Qing finally realized what was happening when he raised his vision and looked down from above.

This is actually a palm-shaped valley!
Considering the ruins here, Zhou Qing was slightly shocked.

I don’t know how many years ago, this place was probably not a valley. It is estimated that when the Buddhist tradition on Sleeping Buddha Mountain was destroyed, this location was slapped by someone, and then this area became what it is now.

Zhou Qing looked up. The ground here was about tens of meters away from the top of the mountain. As a result, he was slapped into this state by someone...

There were obvious signs of recent searching, which further damaged the remaining ruins. It could be said that the place had been turned upside down.

This was undoubtedly done by someone who came to look for the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire.

Logically speaking, this place had already been searched and nothing had been found, but Zhou Qing's eyes fell on a spot on the ground.

It looked ordinary there, but from the perspective of my mental power, I could sense that something was wrong underground.

Zhou Qing's soul left his body and he used the earth escape technique to go underground without making any big noise.

After entering the earth, Zhou Qing discovered that there were many buildings buried in the soil, deeply sunk into it.

He even found new traces underground, indicating that someone skilled in earth escape techniques had come to search underground.

These people really...didn't miss anything.

Finally, Zhou Qing came to a Buddha statue buried underground.

This Buddha statue is no longer complete. The lower half of its body has disappeared, the body is cracked, and the head of the Buddha statue has been separated from the body. The head has been severely corroded and the face can no longer be seen clearly.

This Buddha statue looks ordinary and is not made of any special material. There are many residues buried underground, so the statue is inconspicuous.

However, Zhou Qing's mental strength was blocked at the head of the Buddha statue and could not pass through it smoothly.

But if you look with the naked eye and perceive with mental power, there is nothing abnormal.

He extended his mental power into the Buddha statue's head, allowing it to seep in bit by bit. Then Zhou Qing determined the approximate size of the object that was blocking his mental power, and then wrapped it with his mental power and brought it out.

The result was that the Buddha's head was completely cracked.

"..."

"Amitabha, Buddha, please don't blame me."

Zhou Qing muttered something and pinched the thing that was brought out by his mental power.

This is a round bead with eight colors, half of which is engraved with dragon patterns and the other half is engraved with the image of Buddha.

The beads are not big, about the size of a thumb nail.

Zhou Qing looked at it carefully and found that his mental power, soul power, and true energy could not penetrate it.

"What is this? It looks a bit like a dragon ball..."

Zhou Qing was a little confused. He had handled quite a few dragon balls before. This one was very similar, but there were also some differences.

There is no doubt that this cannot be the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire, but Zhou Qing feels that something that can block mental power should also be a good thing.

Even if it is a dragon ball, a normal dragon ball will never have the effect of blocking mental power.

After looking at it for a while without figuring out what it was, Zhou Qing put the beads away and returned to the ground.

The Eight Buddha Dragon Fire is more important now.

Not long after Zhou Qing returned to the ground, the snail started ringing. After he answered the call, An Lang's voice was immediately heard.

"Sir, save me!"

When Zhou Qing heard this, his face suddenly turned cold. The wings of the Tianji Phoenix took shape instantly and he flapped his wings and flew away.

After a few breaths, Zhou Qing followed the connection between the snails and came to Anlang. In addition to her, there were two monks in the True Blood Realm fighting with the Six Spirit Puppets.

These two monks were at the second level of True Blood Refining and were quite powerful, but under the fierce attack of the Six Spirit Puppets, they were stretched to the limit and could only hold on with difficulty.

At the same time, Zhou Qing also discovered that the temperature in this area was a little abnormal. Not far from An Lang and the others, a crack appeared on the ground, and there were traces of gold flowing underneath. The temperature there was very high, and there were wisps of white smoke.

In the middle of the crack, there was a footprint deeply sunk into the ground, and next to it was another footprint of the same size.

Zhou Qing landed beside An Lang, who whispered excitedly, "Master, I found the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire, it's right there!"

Zhou Qing glanced at the two True Blood monks fighting the Six Spirit Puppets, "What's wrong with them?"

"I met these two people when I got here. They wanted to attack me by surprise."

An Lang said quickly: "The Six Spirit Puppets stopped them, but they stepped on the ground and created a crack, and then a dragon-shaped flame emerged from below. Now the flame has retracted into the ground."

After finishing the business, An Lang complained in a vicious tone:
"These two evil monks shouted when they first appeared that they wanted to capture me and enslave me!"

This is also the common situation of ghosts. Once they encounter a master outside, accidents can easily happen.

Zhou Qingxian smiled and touched An Lang's head, saying:

"You are quite lucky. You are really my lucky ghost."

Zhou Qing really didn't expect that it was An Lang who discovered the Eight Dragon Buddha Fire first, and he did so by using the Six Spirit Puppets to step on it.

After saying that, Zhou Qing looked towards the two True Blood Realm monks. The smile on his face disappeared, returning to indifference.

"Things looking for death."

A fiery red light flashed, bringing with it a dazzling sword light, and Zhou Qing had already appeared on the battlefield.

At the same time, a magic sword was shot out from the forest in another direction. Its power was so strong that it cut all the trees on the path into pieces.

"Wait, this is a mistake..."

A monk shouted, but before he could finish his words, the Six Spirit Puppets punched him, causing his body to shake violently and blood to spurt out. Then the Taibai Sword, with its black and red sword intent of killing everything, pierced directly into his chest.

He saw all kinds of strange visions on the flying magic sword, which was extremely powerful, with enough power to achieve the three transformations of Yin God, and directly blew off his head.

The other monk's expression changed drastically, but the death of his companion gave him a chance to catch his breath, and then he turned and ran.

In the forest, the figure of Yan Kuangtu walked out.

Zhou Qing looked at the monk's back.

Humph, want to escape?
