Chapter 569 Gathering
“Chi!”
A red flame streaked across the forest. Wherever the flame passed, the Yin Qi in the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls was burned away, and white smoke steamed up.
Such a shocking change caused the expressions of all three parties on the battlefield to change, and they waited solemnly.
Then the two human teams saw the flames rushing straight towards the ghosts, then splitting and falling on the ghosts with an irresistible attitude.
Even if the evil ghost around the late stage of the Holy Appearance used all its magical powers, it could not withstand the flames or avoid them. It could only watch as its body began to burn.
“Ah!”
A series of screams came from the mouths of the ghosts.
Such a sight made the two human teams both happy and frightened.
It is still unclear whether meeting such a master at such a time is a blessing or a curse.
At this time, the air flowed and the wind sounded. Zhou Qing flew out of the dense forest and looked down at everyone and the ghosts.
The Qi of Xian Sheng Realm is flowing freely, majestic and thick, as if a mountain has collapsed, and the cover is coming down, making everyone feel the suffocating pressure.
This is by no means an ordinary realm of manifestation!
This recognition appears in everyone's mind.
Zhou Qing took action first and suppressed several evil spirits present, and he was in a good mood.
A few more evil ghosts were harvested, and we were one step closer to the goal of the Hundred Ghosts.
During this process, some people wanted to leave quietly, but after being glanced at by Zhou Qing, they suddenly froze in place, feeling cold all over, and did not dare to make any more small moves.
The two teams could only barely cope with it together, and some of the ghosts who were at a disadvantage were dealt with so neatly by this young man who suddenly appeared.
Such strength made everyone present feel uncertain.
After dealing with the ghosts, Zhou Qing looked at everyone and asked:
"Who will tell me what happened?"
The holy monk immediately clasped his fists at Zhou Qing and said:
"I have met fellow Taoist, the matter is like this, we and Brother Zhu and the others happened to meet in the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls, but they bumped into this group of evil ghosts. After escaping, we were not strong enough and fell into a crowd of ghosts."
"I would also like to thank fellow Taoist for your generous action in saving me from danger."
Zhou Qing looked at him. He glanced at it, then looked at the team where the marrow cleansing warriors were, and asked:
"What do you want to say?"
The marrow cleansing warrior also thanked Zhou Qing first, and then said:
"Fellow Taoist, Bu Jin is right, we The two parties did meet by chance in Ten Thousand Souls Forest.”
< br>Speaking of this, he paused, glanced at Monk Bujin, and then gritted his teeth and said:
“But it is not a coincidence that these evil ghosts are chasing us. In fact, it is because we collided with each other. Broken their secret.”
"Oh? Secret? What is it?"
Zhou Qing didn't expect to hear such news, and couldn't help but become interested.
Bujin's eyes changed, and he was about to speak, but a huge pressure suddenly came over him, making him tremble and unable to speak.
“When we were exploring the Ten Thousand Souls Forest, we were attracted by a scent, and then we went to find the source of that scent.”
“Finally, we tracked down a place, which is exactly There I met Bujin and the others who were probably also attracted by the fragrance.”
"We saw a large number of ghosts in that place. Among them, there were roughly five ghosts that manifested themselves as saints. Among them, there were two ghosts with extremely powerful auras. I am afraid they have cultivated to the state of perfection."
" After we were discovered by a ghost , they were chased, but only one holy ghost came. The other ghosts still stayed at that place and ignored us. "
The reason why they were chased by a late holy ghost was, A big reason is also the fear of the ghosts gathering in that place.
If you don’t run away, why don’t you stay there and wait to die?
Fragrance, gathering ghosts...
Zhou Qing's eyes lit up, and then he asked:
"Is it close to the territory of the five ghosts and gods?"
The warrior surnamed Zhu replied: "It's very far, not close to any ghosts and gods. "
Zhou Qing thought for a moment that the place discovered by this group of people might have given birth to some kind of treasure.
It is worthy of being guarded by many holy ghosts. The treasure should be extraordinary.
This is normal. In dangerous places like the Ten Thousand Souls Forest, apart from tempering oneself, the most attractive thing is the treasures that grow everywhere.
After making some calculations in his mind, Zhou Qing looked at Bu Jin with a smile on his face.
“I saved your life, but you didn’t even want to tell me the truth.”
Although Zhou Qing had a smile on his face, it made Bu Jin feel chilled to the bone.
"Zhu Daoyou, right?" Zhou Qing asked:
"Why would you tell me such a secret directly?"
Zhou Qing is very cautious and will not be dazzled by the possible treasures.
The warrior surnamed Zhu gave a wry smile, and then explained:
“Bujin’s elder brother is a monk who has perfected the Holy Manifestation, and the Bu family brothers have a bad reputation in Wanhun Town. Arrogant and domineering."
"If we are not rescued by fellow Taoists today, even if we escape from the hands of ghosts, the Bu family brothers will not let us know this secret."
"Facing the murder of the Bu brothers, I might be able to escape, but these brothers of mine will be in danger, so I told fellow Taoists truthfully about this matter and hoped that fellow Taoists would give us a way out."
Zhou Qing pondered, he didn't know much about the situation in Wanhun Town. Although he didn't believe what the warrior said, he didn't believe it completely.
After thinking about it, Zhou Qing looked at the man in the team of warriors surnamed Zhu, whose martial arts moves were somewhat Xuan Du Guan style.
At the age of twenty-something, his cultivation level in bone refining is pretty good.
Zhou Qing sent a message to him:
"Are you a disciple of Xuandu Temple?"
The young man was shocked and immediately looked at Zhou Qing, wondering how his identity could be exposed.
"You don't need to speak. What am I asking? Just nod or shake your head. Are you a disciple of Xuandu Temple?"
The young man nodded heavily.
“Are they telling the truth?”
He nodded again.
Zhou Qing did not send another message to him, but said publicly:
"I am very interested in what you said, so I plan to go and take a look, but in order to prevent you from leaking it The news, you also need to go with me. "
If we return this group of people to Wanhun Town, the news will probably spread throughout the town.
Although Zhou Qing is not afraid of the Marrow Revealing Practitioners here and will not kill them indiscriminately, he does not want to cause trouble.
When the warrior surnamed Zhu heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly said:
"Fellow Taoist, a group of ghosts gathered there. We have been away from there for a while, and now there may be more ghosts gathered."< br>
“It’s dangerous for us people to go there.”
More ghosts gathered?
There is such a good thing!
"Don't worry, I have a space bag that can contain living beings. I will put you in it when the time comes."
Zhou Qing said, "There is no need for you to take action to deal with the ghosts."
The thinking of the creatures placed in the spirit bag is stagnant and cannot do anything.
It can be said that they are at the mercy of others, so Zhou Qing is not afraid of them causing any trouble.
“Do you have to be like this, fellow Taoist?”
The warrior named Zhu stared closely at Zhou Qing, obviously unwilling to enter the spirit bag.
Who is willing to put his life and death in the hands of others?
Zhou Qing didn't care much about his performance.
"Uncle Zhu, wait!"
Suddenly, the Xuandu disciple shouted:
"Let's do what this senior said."
He looked at the warrior surnamed Zhu and said:
"Uncle Zhu, without you, everyone still says that I am actually Xuan Du Guan’s disciples are just traveling around and honing their martial arts.”< br>
"I believe that this senior will not harm a disciple of Xuandu Temple. He just saved us!"
Others looked at the young man in surprise and did not expect to get along with each other. My companion who has been with me for a long time actually has such a hidden identity.
Disciples of Xuandu Temple are extremely valuable to these casual cultivators in Hanzhou.
Zhou Qing said calmly:
"You don't have anything worthy of killing me. I am the true successor of Xuandu, the master of Kunlun Mountain."
The true messenger flashed out. Passed away, but it was enough to be seen clearly by this group of practitioners.
Thunder erupted from the ground, and everyone was blown to pieces.
If he was surprised just now, he is completely shocked now.
The true biography of Xuandu? Lord of Kunlun Mountain?
Hiss!
They actually met such a big shot in the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls?
Normal Xuandu disciples are extremely valuable at the level of casual cultivators, so to them Xuandu Zhenzhuan is a legendary figure, a person from two worlds.
It’s no wonder that although this man’s aura is majestic, he only vaguely reveals the aura of the early stage of becoming a saint.
It is the true biography of Xuandu, so all this can be explained.
Bu Jin and the warrior surnamed Zhu had such thoughts in their minds at the same time.
The warrior surnamed Zhu said decisively: "I am willing to lead the way to that place where ghosts gather!"
His tone and attitude changed 180 times. big change.
Some of the little thoughts in other people's hearts also quietly disappeared, leaving only awe.
"Let him lead the way for me. You all enter the space bag."
Zhou Qing glanced at the other Xuandu disciple. The warrior surnamed Zhu had no objection and immediately called for his team. The other people inside acted according to Zhou Qing's wishes.
One after another, Zhou Qing put them into the spirit bag, and finally Zhou Qing looked at Bujin.
"Big, my lord."
Bu Jin forced out a flattering smile, "I didn't mean to deceive you, I was just obsessed for a moment. Please forgive me."
Just now, he was still thinking, and even thought about escaping, but now he has It's submissive. "No need to say anything more, just go in."
Zhou Qing didn't say anything more, and Bu Jin didn't dare to disobey and obediently entered the spirit bag.
This is the deterrence of Xuandu’s true biography!
Although this was an act of entrusting life and death to others, the fact that that person was a master they could not resist and a true successor of Xuandu made them feel more at ease.
At least most of the time, Xuandu Zhenzhuan's image is relatively positive.
In the end, there were only two Xuandu disciples left here. Zhou Qing looked at each other and asked:
"What is your name? Which peak disciple are you from?"
"I have met senior brother. My name is Ye Gong. I am a disciple of the Twenty-Fourth Inner Peak. I started walking in the world three years ago and traveled in Liguan. I came to Ten Thousand Souls Forest three months ago and stayed here for three months. , I am preparing to go back to the mountain in the near future.”
Ye Gong explained his origins clearly, and at the same time showed Zhou Qing his inner identity certificate.
Xuandu disciples have their own way to verify whether the other party's identity certificate matches their own.
Zhou Qing nodded, "It turns out to be Junior Brother Ye. He has been walking for three years, and has made great progress in bone refining. He has made great progress."
"My name is Zhou Qing, and I am the new True Successor this month."< br>
Most of the time, Xuandu disciples cannot leave the Xuanfa Mountains for a long time. They disappear for no reason. At best, they are judged as missing, and at worst, they are directly regarded as betraying the disciples. Even if you go out to do tasks, there is a time limit.
But there is one type of situation that is very special and has plenty of time
that is walking in the world.
When a disciple's cultivation reaches a certain level and he has the ability to protect himself outside, he can apply to join the world and walk, and then he can start walking around the world.
In this way, you can stay outside for a long time without having to stay in the sect all the time.
However, this kind of walking training will also require disciples to report to the nearest Ghost and God Department every once in a while, so that the temple can know your whereabouts at any time.
Apart from anything else, if something happens and I want to rescue you, I need to know where you are.
If Zhou Qing wants to leave Xuandu Temple for a long time in the future, he must also make such an application.
Ye Gong was shocked after hearing Zhou Qing's words.
This month’s new true brother, is he actually so powerful?
Is this a new talent cultivated by any aristocratic family in Guanzhong?
"Thank you to Senior Brother Zhou for saving me this time. Junior Brother is very grateful."
Zhou Qing waved his hand, "You're welcome, Xuandu disciples should help each other."
"Take me first. Go to the place where you found the ghosts."
"Okay, Senior Brother Zhou, please come with me."
Go all the way to the depths of Ten Thousand Souls Forest. On the way, Zhou Qing also asked. Let’s take a look at their situation.
The warrior surnamed Zhu, named Zhu San, was met by Ye Gong by chance after he came to the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls. Because Ye Gong was very capable, he was valued by Zhu San and was drawn into their adventure team to explore the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls together. .
In March, we got along day and night. According to Ye Gong, Zhu San and others were good people. At least they had a bottom line in a lawless place like Ten Thousand Souls Forest and would not kill other people at will.
Zhou Qing doesn't know what Zhu San's character is, but he is quite smart, there is no doubt about it.
If you are not smart, you will not tell Zhou Qing about the gathering of ghosts.
But Bujin's group, as Zhu San said, can be said to be notorious in Wanhun Town.
After being convinced, the Bujin brothers gathered many people and became the dominant force in Ten Thousand Souls Town.
On this point, Ye Gong and the others have no need to lie.
As long as you are serious about this kind of news, you can find out by just asking around in Wanhun Town. If you make it up at this time, you will just shoot yourself in the foot.
After understanding the situation clearly, Zhou Qing said:
"If Bu Jin is really evil and has done many evil things, then needless to say, he will get the punishment he deserves."
The Ten Thousand Souls Forest becomes more and more spooky at night, with ghost fires dotting the forest. When the wind blows, it sounds like a fierce ghost roaring.
As Ye Gong led the way deeper, at a certain moment, Zhou Qing's expression changed.
He also smelled a fragrance.
“That’s the smell.”
Ye Gong whispered: “It’s just that we don’t know what kind of fragrance this is.”
I don't know either.
But it doesn’t matter. When I take it into the Immortal Tree Secret Realm and open the panel, I will know everything.
After Ye Gong said it was almost there, Zhou Qing also put him into the spirit bag.
With the great achievement of bone refining, even the inner sect of Xuandu is too weak in such an occasion.
Following the scent, Zhou Qing carefully touched himself. At a certain moment, he stopped.
He sensed the presence of a large number of ghosts. A rough estimate was that there might be nearly fifty.
This number made Zhou Qing secretly happy. Even if there were no other treasures, such a large number of ghosts was worthy of him coming here.
Based on today's collection progress, Zhou Qing calculated that he might not be able to collect a hundred evil ghosts until tomorrow night.
But if the ghosts here can be eaten in one pot, then the number of hundreds of ghosts will almost be complete.
Not to mention that in Zhou Qing's senses, the quality of the ghosts gathered in front was quite high.
Sure enough, those who love to laugh will not have bad luck.
However, Zhu San's intelligence was inconsistent with the actual situation ahead.
In addition to the ghosts ahead, there are also human masters hiding everywhere. Although there are not many, they are all very powerful.
Obviously, not only Zhu San and Bu Jin could smell this fragrance, but others could also smell it as long as they entered a certain range.
If Bujin and the others are allowed to go back, it is foreseeable that more people will gather here after this news is leaked.
After sensing it carefully, Zhou Qing nodded, thinking secretly in his heart.
“Without the existence of the Venerable, the problem is not big. The problem is that we don’t know what exists there. Why are the masters of humans and ghosts surrounding it but not moving? Could it be that such a thing is not mature yet?”< br>
Thinking about something, Zhou Qing secretly activated a talisman that concealed aura and blocked perception, and continued to sneak forward.
With his strength, various special things on his body, and the talismans dropped by the fairy tree, his stealth was really flawless and was not noticed by anyone or any ghost.
This can be called a dimensionality reduction attack.
Later, Zhou Qing was close to the group of vicious ghosts, but still no one noticed Zhou Qing's existence.
It's not their fault, it's the fault of poverty.
At the same time, Zhou Qing also knew what the thing guarded by the ghosts was.
There is an old tree there, and a new branch has sprouted from the old tree.
This place is obviously in the dark ghostland of Ten Thousand Souls Forest. All the trees are shade trees, but the new branch is emerald green, and the green leaf hanging on it is so delicate and full of energy. vitality.
And on that green leaf, there is a drop of dark green water. The water drop is sliding slowly. It is now at the bottom of the green leaf, not far from falling.
Zhou Qing can feel that as the water droplets get closer and closer to falling, the fragrance is gradually increasing, and the color of the water droplets is getting darker.
Those evil spirits are probably waiting for the moment when the water drops fall...
Zhou Qing came to this conclusion in his heart.
But Zhou Qing really didn’t recognize what kind of treasure this was.
Zhou Qing thought for a moment, are you waiting?
Then I will wait too.
He made an estimate based on the current falling speed of the water drop. In about half a quarter of an hour at most, the water drop will fall.
You can afford to wait for this little time.
Zhou Qing observed the evil ghosts again. He found that there were actually seven holy ghosts gathered here. The number was more than Zhu San said. It seemed that new holy ghosts were attracted. Overdone.
There are three of them with extremely powerful auras, which must be the manifestation of the Holy Perfection.
But Zhou Qing is not afraid of ghosts. In front of him, there is no such thing as the ghost sea tactic or the ant-killing elephant.
At least a ghost of this size cannot exhaust his power.
Under the awe-inspiring anger, these ghosts will turn into sick cats.
Time passed, and under everyone's attention, I saw the drop of dark green liquid dripping from the green leaves.
Then at the same time, the new branches of the ancient tree withered in an instant, turned into powder, and disappeared.
Only the drop of dark green liquid is falling, attracting everyone's attention.
"Boom!"
One after another, terrifying auras erupted, and many people who were paying attention here moved. It was as shocking as a thunderbolt. The surrounding trees instantly exploded, and the earth was destroyed. It's out of shape.
The momentum is so amazing that the movement here can be detected from a distance.
"Go away! This belongs to me!"
"Human race, this is the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls, not a place where you can be arrogant!"
"..."
The angry shouts were endless and the sound was rolling.
But there is one person who is faster than all the masters present!
A hand holding a jade bottle appeared just below the water drop and caught it so fast that no one could react.
Then the jade bottle was put into the space bag, leaving only a smiling young man looking at the others.
"Everyone, I accept it."
The next second, a violent storm suddenly struck.
