Chapter 23: The True Words of Esoteric Buddhism

  Deeply sighing at the importance of money, Zhou Qing prepared to forcibly use the outer array, triggering the Heavenly Slaughter Array within the knife body, in order to absorb the dead energy on Jin Can's body.

  The continuous transformation of the hand seal, Zhou Qing was sweating profusely, and when the second yuan Shen appeared, he urged this formation to move freely and effortlessly. Now it's at least ten times harder. Zhou Qing thought to himself: It seems that in the future, I need to cultivate my body more, but it's not easy to cultivate my body to the point of transforming into a spirit. Without high-level techniques or the help of spiritual elixirs, it would take at least 200 years of hard work. Zhou Qing shook his head, dispelling the distracting thoughts in his mind, and used all his true yuan to urge the twelve command flags to move. It was like pushing a huge boulder, Zhou Qing's eyes were wide open, and the veins on his body were bulging, the true yuan in his dantian was almost depleted, and only then did the twelve command flags slowly begin to rotate around the hilt of the double-headed wolf knife.

  A stream of spiritual light shot out from the command flags, like spider silk wrapping around the hilt of the sword. Zhou Qing didn't care about that, he sat cross-legged on the ground, using all his strength to cultivate and recover his true yuan. The spiritual lights grew more and more numerous, gradually obscuring the hilt of the sword. An invisible pressure formed a whirlpool, gathering countless energies of a different nature from heaven and earth with the twelve command flags, transforming into streams of colorful, shimmering light.

  "Hum! A low, muffled voice came from the blade, and the four eyes of the Double-Headed Wolf shone brightly with green light. The spiritual lights were sucked dry, and the twelve command flags lost their supporting power, clattering to the ground. Meanwhile, the Blood Transformation Divine Knife automatically burst out of the ground, hovering in mid-air, as a bloody glow enveloped the entire practice room. The dead energy on the Golden Silkworm stirred restlessly upon encountering the blood light, seemingly drawn to the blade."

  Zhou Qing was overjoyed: As expected, it's effective! Although this spell is suppressing the energy of the Seven Treasures Mysterious Tree Cane with all its might, I've added a supplementary medicine to it. With that, it should be able to spare some energy, right?! A mournful and eerie ghostly wail came from the Golden Silkworm! The thick blood night condensed into a ball by the Blood Demon's Curse gathered at the Golden Silkworm's brain, tightly absorbing the bloody glow. That ball of blood constantly transformed into strange and bizarre shapes, such as devils, skulls, and scythes. Zhou Qing's tongue was tied: It's really powerful! If my true body were to be hit by this curse... Ah... Zhou Qing didn't dare think about it anymore.

  At last, the Blood Demon's killing curse was slightly inferior after all. The reputation of the first killer array in the demonic path is not covered. The Tianxuan Blood Demon is powerful, but it can't be compared to that master who made the Huaxue Divine Knife back then. The Blood Demon's killing curse turned into a fist-sized blood clot and flew into the knife body, being eaten away by the Huaxue Divine Knife as a supplement. Zhou Qing was overjoyed and hurried forward to check if his Golden Silkworm had any damage, completely unaware of the eerie situation of the Huaxue Divine Knife floating in mid-air.

  At this moment, the Blood Slashing Sword's body had retracted its blood glow, revealing a dark and ancient blade. The symbols on the sword that were originally hidden by the blood glow began to appear, as if two things were struggling against each other. Zhou Qing was using all his might to refine the damaged Golden Silkworm, and if he noticed, he would be shocked to discover that the internal struggle between the two energies had reached its limit. After thousands of years of struggle, the energy of the "Seven Treasures Mysterious Tree Staff" had dwindled, while the divine array within the sword continued to absorb new energy from the outside world. However, because this energy was too pure, it could not be eliminated, and both sides were at a stalemate. Just then, the divine array absorbed the deathly aura of the Blood Demon's Curse, which became the final straw that broke the camel's back!

  The energy of the Seven Treasures Mysterious Tree Staff was gradually being driven out, and Zhou Qing finally felt something was off. He had just recalled his divine spirit when he discovered this situation, and his soul flew out in shock. This was a serious matter - if that energy were to explode, not only would his own house be destroyed, but nothing within a ten-mile radius could exist either. The power of the ancient, mysterious treasure was enormous; while it might be an exaggeration to say it could destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth, it could certainly annihilate everything within a thousand miles with a single blow. Although it was just a small amount of energy, Zhou Qing still sensed the massive explosive force contained within.

  The Law of One, the twelve command flags that had fallen to the ground began to flutter again. At this time, Zhou Qing's power was restored and it was easy to use. However, when trying to trap that energy, it wasn't so easy. The golden...

  The flowing light flowed out of the knife body, gathering into a ball of golden liquid in mid-air, and an endless oppressive force emanated from that liquid. Zhou Qing drove the Tian Shen Sha Great Array to suppress the oppressive force within the golden liquid with all his might, lest it burst forth. The two sides were at a stalemate, when the floating Blood Spirit Knife, whether driven by instinct or something else, saw the calamity that had entangled itself for a thousand years, let out a long roar, and its body broke through space, appearing in Zhou Qing's Tian Shen Sha Great Array. This Blood Spirit Knife was the ancestor of the Tian Shen Sha Great Array, and Zhou Qing's incomplete array could not withstand it.

  Seeing the golden liquid in the array, Huaxue Shengdao seemed to have seen an arch-nemesis, its blade radiating a fierce aura as it hacked down with a single, ruthless slash. Zhou Qingqian had calculated everything, but hadn't anticipated this disaster. His mind went blank as he stared wide-eyed at the explosion of golden liquid. A low hum filled the air, and an object from within the walls was blown out by the immense pressure. Just as the golden energy was about to erupt, the object somehow absorbed it all, spinning in mid-air with a whirring sound. Huaxue Shengdao fell to the ground with a clang, its spiritual essence having been completely drained by that single strike, once again becoming an inanimate artifact.

  In an instant, she went through a process from hell to heaven, but it was like being in a different world. Zhou Qing woke up and looked at the object spinning in the air, wasn't that her own ****? Since seeing the Hook Chen Tian Shu, Zhou Qing understood that the characters engraved on the **** were not ancient Sanskrit, but rather the language of the ancient demon tribe. Although she didn't understand why this Buddhist artifact was related to the ancient demon tribe, Zhou Qing knew that this **** was no ordinary object. She carefully examined it again, but unfortunately, the material used to make the **** was extremely ordinary, just a bronze device. Except for the sound it made when spinning, which had a calming effect on the mind and spirit, Zhou Qing couldn't see anything special about it.

  It spun faster and faster, eventually becoming a blur of shadow. According to theory, at such high speeds, it should have generated strong winds, but strangely, not only did Zhou Qing feel no wind, but the air around him showed no signs of movement either, giving him the illusion that it was spinning in another space altogether.

  Om, ma, ni, bai, mi, hum - six majestic sounds came out from ****, stunning Zhou Qing's ears and making the surrounding walls tremble. Even Liao Xiao Jin, who was eating, was startled and jumped up: "What's going on? What's this sound?"

  Bang! The little fox was stunned, and Zhou Chen was too! With a cry of "Ah!", a thread of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. Liao Xiao Jin was confused by this sudden turn of events: "Sister! What's going on? Why are you suddenly injured?" Liao Xiao Jin asked Zhou Chen.

  "This is the supreme mantra of Buddhist Tantra to subdue demons, and we monsters can't stand it. Fortunately, it wasn't specifically aimed at us, so its power was limited, and my sister just fainted, nothing serious happened. It seems like the sound came from Master's place of closed cultivation." Zhou Chen said weakly.

  "Logically, I'm also a vampire and should be considered a monster, so why doesn't it have any effect on me? Is this spell only effective against Chinese monsters and useless once you leave the country? And didn't Master practice Buddhist magic too?! Could it be that this guy is hiding his true abilities?" Liao Xiaojin's mind was filled with doubts.

  On the other side, Zhou Qing was attracted by a strange thing.
