Chapter 2208 Seeking the Dharma
Qin Sang roughly understood what Hongtian meant. It seemed that this incident was caused intentionally by the alien ancestors. The "seed" that Hongtian mentioned might be one of their goals.
Now that the 'seeds' are mature, the veteran masters have taken the lead, made arrangements in advance, and have already had a share of the pie, but some people still leave guidance or send younger generations down the mountain to try their luck. Anyone who can get one will earn a profit.
No wonder Xian Tong and Tang Kun never showed any ability beyond their realm until their death. If they were to shoulder important tasks, the ancestors behind them would certainly give them treasures to protect themselves. With the foundation of the alien ancestors, even if they are not as good as the Thunder Beast War Guards, they will not be much worse.
As for Hongtian and others, because they are newcomers and have no merit, they cannot directly share the benefits from the old and powerful ones. The "that bowl" he mentioned refers to that secret realm.
According to Zhan Yan, the alien race originally allocated an area in the holy land to the Taoist sect in order to repay the Taoist sect. Presumably, because of this, the old and powerful people were unable to set foot here before and did not divide it up, leaving it without an owner.
So, does that mean Hongtian’s real opponent is just that one person?
Qin Sang pondered in his heart and glanced in the direction of King Longjiao's water palace.
Seeing his thoughts, Hong Tian said: "The changes in the holy land have created an unimaginable opportunity. This is why King Long Jiao and I were able to break through in one fell swoop, but we are not the only ones who are destined to have this opportunity."
This means that someone will break through to the Saint Realm later!
Qin Sang couldn't help but think of King Yu and the Queen of the Mermaids. The two kings commanded the Sky Tribe and the Water Tribe respectively. Not only were they powerful, they must be the strongest among the aliens and the most promising candidates to break through to the Saint Realm. But now they have disappeared.
Could it be that they are hiding somewhere at this moment, concentrating on breaking through?
"The Holy Land has undergone a major change that is unprecedented. How many treasures and opportunities there are, and how to select the destined people, we need to wait until everyone is together to discuss it. It is too early to say now. However, some of them have been there every time the Holy Land is opened in the past, and some are things that everyone must fight for. I have a list here, you can take a look."
Hongtian flicked his fingers lightly, and a stream of light flew towards Qin Sang.
Qin Sang reached out to take it, it felt cool to the touch, it was a jade slip.
At this point, he could no longer refuse. Not to mention the temptation of the fusion period, there was also a condition implied in Hongtian's words. If he did not agree, these outsiders would be excluded and lose the opportunity to enter the secret realm.
However, once he agrees to Hongtian, he might have to face other powerful saints next.
Risks and opportunities have coexisted since ancient times. It is worth trying your best just for the opportunity of the fusion period!
Qin Sang was not lacking in courage, and he immediately made a decision in his heart. He bowed and said, "I have an unwelcome request. I hope you can grant me a thunder technique!"
The implication is that he has agreed!
Qin Sang naturally had his own confidence in agreeing to the contract.
Firstly, he has a small cave heaven. I remember that Ziwei Tongzi once said that when he encounters danger, he can hide in the small cave heaven and hide it from ordinary combined cultivators.
Hongtian’s opponents are those who have just broken through the holy realm and have begun to comprehend the realm of law.
The second is the Thunder Beast Guard. A fusion period thunder technique is sealed in the body of the Thunder Beast Guard. In times of crisis, even if Hongtian is negligent for a moment, he can withstand the attack of the powerful and buy time.
The last time, the use of the �shan Pearl to seal the Thunder Sacrifice Oath failed because Qin Sang's cultivation was insufficient and he could not control the Thunder Sacrifice Oath. If a true fusion stage cultivator could personally perform the thunder method, the situation would probably be completely different. Now that the Thunder Beast War Guard has completely recovered, the �shan Pearl has returned to its place, and its ability to withstand impact will be even stronger.
Exposing the Thunder Beast Guard was also an explanation for his ability to kill Xian Tong and Tang Kun, and was a way to hide other cards.
A powerful thunder technique must be sealed in the body of the Thunder Beast Guard in advance, and it can only launch an attack that is barely comparable to the level of the Fitting Stage. Without this thunder technique, its combat power is only equivalent to that of a cultivator in the late Refinement Void Stage, and should not be able to enter Hongtian's eyes.
Even if the Thunder Beast Guard was really taken away by Hongtian, it would be worth it if he could help him cover up other secrets.
As he spoke, Qin Sang shook his sleeves and summoned the Thunder Beast Guard.
'Shuh! '
Lightning flashed, and the Thunder Beast Guard appeared, standing beside Qin Sang with his head held high.
Thunder surrounds the body, and the sharp edge is revealed!
Upon learning about the ability of the Thunder Beast War Guard, Hong Tian's face lit up and he praised, "What a great War Guard! If I had such a War Guard to protect me, I wouldn't have been forced to leave."
There was a lot of satisfaction and appreciation in Hongtian's eyes. The stronger Qin Sang was, the more beneficial it would be to his plan.
"I don't practice thunder magic, but it doesn't matter. I will try to get one for you. If you have any other requests, please let me know."
"Junior has another request!"
Qin Sang said, "This time, I was able to defeat the powerful enemy and crush their conspiracy. It was not my own achievement, but I was able to do it together with Daoist Liuli. Can Daoist Liuli go with me?"
Hongtian took a deep look at Qin Sang and said calmly, "You are the only one I have my eyes on! If someone is willing to work for me, I will not refuse, but for various reasons, my energy is limited, so I must be very selective. You are worthy of my investment, but she may not be, unless she can show me high enough value. You can take her with you, but if you want my support, you must do better than others! Otherwise, whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with me!"
These words may sound cruel, but they reveal an eternal truth: there is no such thing as free benefit.
"Let me remind you that the danger inside is not only from your opponent. Once you enter, I don't know what you will encounter. Before I see an opportunity, I will not rush in easily. I can't do anything about it. I can only help you stop other fellow practitioners," Hongtian reminded in a deep voice, "With your strength, you may be able to handle it with ease, but can she do it?"
Qin Sang remained silent, wondering whether Hongtian had seen through Liuli's cultivation.
The power of the Emperor's Talisman still exists, but what if it tests more than just strength?
He couldn't make the decision for Liuli directly, it depended on Liuli's own wishes. But based on his understanding of Liuli, no matter how many dangers lay ahead, Liuli would probably not give up.
'boom! ’
Suddenly, there were unusual fluctuations in the sky.
The clouds and mountains were shaking, the surrounding fog was impacted, and fog waves surged like a tide.
'Shuh! '
Hongtian stood up suddenly and stared at the source of the fluctuation.
At the same time, a hidden aura appeared in the sky above the Water Palace, and a graceful figure slowly emerged. It was King Taki Jiao.
The two great saints were alarmed.
Soon, Qin Sang also noticed that the fluctuations actually carried the power of heaven.
"Heavenly disaster!"
Qin Sang was shocked. Someone was going through a tribulation in the distance. Hong Tian was right. Another person was about to break through to the Saint Realm.
With one more powerful saint, Hongtian would have one more opponent. Qin Sang secretly observed Hongtian and found that he had no intention of ruining the other party's good deeds.
Interfering with others' tribulation could backfire. In addition, since the changes in the holy land had been planned for a long time, these were probably all expected by the ancestors of the alien race. The loss of a great saint was a loss for the entire alien race, and Hongtian certainly did not dare to openly disrupt the overall situation. Being too blatant would only make him the target of public criticism.
Hongtian waved his hand, and green light spread everywhere, like rain falling, fluttering and merging into the clouds.
The void suddenly stabilized, minimizing the impact of the fluctuations.
Only then did Qin Sang realize that Hongtian's condition was a little strange. He seemed to be carrying a mountain on his back and was under tremendous pressure.
Obviously, the threat here is not as simple as a beast tide. Chief Yuanxiang and others are resisting the beast tide below, while Hongtian and King Longjiao are fighting against unknown dangers.
The fluctuations of the heavenly tribulation continued to come, wave after wave, stretching endlessly. Qin Sang sensed that the Yin Fire Tribulation had passed, and the Bei Wind Tribulation followed closely, and then the Thunder Tribulation...
Until the thunder power dissipated, everything returned to calm.
"I wonder who this person is. Did he succeed in overcoming the tribulation?"
Qin Sang thought to himself.
Soon, Hong Tian said, "This fellow Taoist is my fellow Taoist. I will go to congratulate him. Master Qin, please do as you please! I will send a message to you when the time comes."
"Yes! I'll take my leave now!"
Qin Sang bowed and left Yunshan. Thinking of the young man who had stopped him before, he decided to return the same way.
'Whoosh! '
Qin Sang descended from the sky and saw that the young man was still waiting for him there. It seemed that he had something urgent to do and his aura seemed a little restless.
Seeing Qin Sang return, the young man was overjoyed and flew forward, "Master Qin is back..."
"I am honored to be summoned by Lord Hongtian, but I have treated you poorly. Please forgive me. I didn't have the opportunity to ask you before, so I don't know your Buddhist name?" Qin Sang landed gracefully.
The young man said, "It's okay," "I'm Yu Zhen, from the same clan."
Qin Sang looked the young man up and down, "I have never seen Daoist Fellow Yu before. Daoist Fellow should not be from the lower realm, right?"
In the minds of some alien races, the holy land is the legendary fairyland, and some even regard themselves as citizens of the lower world.
The young man said repeatedly: "The real person has flaming eyes and golden pupils! However, unless you enter the holy realm, there is no distinction between high and low. The so-called upper realm can also be regarded as a cage."
This statement did make some sense, but the more polite the other party was, the more alert Qin Sang became. He got straight to the point and said, "I wonder what Daoist Fellow Yu wants to talk to me about?"
Yu Zhen laughed awkwardly, looked around, apologized, set up a ban to isolate the inside and outside, and said seriously: "Forgive me for being so presumptuous, have you ever seen a magical treasure..."
As he spoke, Yu Zhen transformed into an object, which turned out to be a gourd.
"Are you the owner of that gourd?"
Qin Sang's face turned cold.
What the other party conjured up was the Gourd of Destroying Ashes. After Qin Sang killed the immortal boy, this treasure naturally fell into his hands.
He didn't know who the owner of the Gourd of Extinguishing Ashes was, but he could sense that the mark in the magic treasure did not belong to the fairy boy, and the fairy boy had not been able to activate the treasure smoothly before, which was enough to prove that the owner of the Gourd of Extinguishing Ashes was someone else.
Qin Sang snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with ferocity. The Gourd of Destroying Ashes had caused him so much trouble, and this person actually dared to appear in front of him, as if he wanted to get the treasure back from him!
"How arrogant! You and that Si guy conspired to kill me. Do you really think I dare not kill you?" Qin Sang shouted angrily.
Yu Zhen smiled bitterly and quickly comforted Qin Sang, "Master Qin, calm down! I really didn't know that he would use the Ash-Extinguishing Gourd to murder Master Qin, otherwise I would never have given this treasure to him..."
He was also complaining in his heart. He knew that appearing in front of Qin Sang now would only bring trouble to himself.
However, the Miejin Gourd is very important to him. It is not only the most important magic treasure he relies on when fighting, but also a treasure that can help him to achieve twice the result with half the effort in tempering his innate magical powers. Its status is second only to his natal magic treasure.
Yu Zhen spent a lot of effort in refining the Ash-Extinguishing Gourd, and the fairy boy also put a lot of thought into borrowing this treasure.
Yu Zhen never expected that Xiantong would fail. When he heard Ping Fairy and others say that Xiantong and Tang Kun were missing, his heart skipped a beat. After careful inquiry, he learned that Xiantong might have died at the hands of the enemy. He became even more anxious and regretted it so much that he should not have been tempted by such a small profit and lost the big picture for the small one.
Seeing Qin Sang's expression becoming increasingly cold and murderous, Yu Zhen quickly took out a brocade bag, presented it with both hands, and said, "At that time, he really only wanted to borrow the treasure. All the rewards are here. I will give them all to Master Qin, and I will also give Master Qin some compensation. In addition, I will not let Master Qin return the Ashes Gourd to me for nothing. I am willing to pay the same price to get this treasure back from Master Qin."
It's not that Yu Zhen didn't think about snatching it by force, but the fairy boy set a killing trap, including the two girls of Fairy Ping, a total of five strong men. Not only did he fail, but two of them were killed by Qin Sang.
This record is too sensational, how could he not be afraid.
Others would have to think twice before dealing with such a person. The cost of gathering enough people and inviting helpers would probably be high, so it would be better to go directly to Qin Sang and have a frank talk.
For this reason, Yu Zhen did not hesitate to stay here and wait for Qin Sang. He was anxious and restless, not knowing what was going on deep in his heart.
Qin Sang narrowed his eyes and stared at Yu Zhen. He certainly didn't believe that this person was completely unaware, but after all, he didn't participate in the pursuit, and there was no direct hatred, so it was not impossible to resolve it. The fairy boy was dead, and for the time being, the grudge had been settled. Qin Sang still wanted to gain a foothold in the fog sea, so there was no need to involve too much, because making too many enemies was not a good thing.
However, the Gourd of Extinguishing Ashes was too restraining and could not be returned to him easily.
Qin Sang planned to leave this person alone for the time being and think it over carefully.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, you are overthinking. I am lucky to have escaped death and saved my life. How could I have the strength to snatch this treasure? I am afraid that person intends to steal your spiritual treasure and deliberately push it onto me. Fellow Daoist, please keep your eyes open and don't be fooled. As for your action of borrowing the treasure..."
Qin Sang's tone gradually turned cold, "I have my own measure in my heart, I will get it back one by one in the future!"
After saying this, Qin Sang turned away without waiting for Yu Zhen to explain.
"Master Qin!"
Yu Zhen watched Qin Sang walk away, feeling helpless. Xiantong and Tang Kun were missing, but Qin Sang denied that he had killed them. What else could he say?
Qin Sang left Yu Zhen behind and flew away, but he couldn't help thinking about his next action. His eyes flickered slightly and he gradually disappeared into the thick fog.
