Chapter 43: The Lord of Mount Xumi is Zhunti
"Okay!" Guangchengzi let out a long sigh and threw the bark in his hand back. There were several mysterious runes engraved on the bark, which turned into a large formation in mid-air. In an instant, it turned into the size of dust and hid in the void.
This bark was not picked up from the roadside, but the bark of a top-grade innate spiritual root, the Blue Sky and Green Yang Banyan. Guangchengzi had taken thousands of pieces with him before leaving, just to use them to engrave the Liang Yi Micro Dust Array.
Including the one he just threw down, he had thrown down no less than a thousand pieces of tree bark along the way, which meant that he had thrown down thousands of Yin-Yang Dust Arrays. If one of them exploded, he wouldn't dare to say that the entire West would be reduced to the size of dust, but he would have no problem bringing all the land within billions of miles under his control.
What's more, this place is filled with Zhu Xian sword energy. If these Liang Yi Micro Dust Formations explode, these lifeless Zhu Xian sword energies will surely be completely stimulated, and this place will truly become a forbidden area for all living beings.
Guangchengzi's move was not to deal another heavy blow to the West, but to prevent the sword energy of Zhuxian from blocking his way when he encountered danger and turning himself into a beast in a cage, so he did this to avoid disaster.
And if he really encountered an unstoppable crisis, he would not hesitate at all and would definitely activate the Liangyi Microdust Formation. He would bite off a piece of the opponent's flesh even if he died, and it would be best if the opponent could die with him.
The deeper he went, the stronger Guangchengzi felt the call, as if the Western flag would automatically jump out if he took a few more steps inside.
But this call was so strong that even Guangchengzi couldn't believe it.
"That's not right. Even if I have a connection with the four-sided flag, it can't be that strong. And if it was that strong, I'm afraid it would have jumped out long ago, or automatically emitted strange phenomena to attract people. Why would I have to go and find it myself? Is there a trick?"
When Guangchengzi thought of this possibility, he became a little alert.
This is not impossible. Didn't the old man ambush him in advance by taking advantage of the connection between the Nanming Liaoyuan Flag and the Xuanhuang Zhongde Flag?
Since the Southern Ming Liaoyuan Flag can do it, why can't Western flags do it?
What's more, there are five such flags. As long as he fails to break the balance and obtain three of them, it means that someone must be able to use this to plot against him.
But as the saying goes, a man of great skill is daring. Guangchengzi, relying on the seven golden wheels of merit in his hands, was able to use them to unleash the maximum power of the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, which also shows that he has extraordinary courage.
Even though he knew that this might imply something bad, he still dared to continue walking inside.
However, as he moved forward this time, Guangchengzi felt that the Zhuxian sword energy around him began to gradually weaken, and even vacuum zones began to appear. This was obviously not formed naturally, but was purified by someone with great magic power.
"Someone would actually spend their magic power to come here and destroy the sword energy of Zhu Xian? This is not an easy task. If you are not careful, you will easily fall into it. Although it is a good deed, you have to be alive to enjoy it."
After realizing all this, Guangchengzi was slightly surprised.
Just as there would be merit for quelling the eruption of the immortal volcano in the south, there would also be merit for going to the depths of the west to annihilate the sword energy of Zhu Xian.
But the reason why no one is willing to do these two things is because they are too dangerous.
Who wouldn't want to take advantage of the benefits? The worst thing is to be able to take them but not enjoy them. It would be really stupid to do things for others in vain.
Guangchengzi has many treasures, profound magical powers, and a good background. Even so, he can only slowly eliminate the Zhuxian sword energy. He even has to be extremely careful, for fear that something unexpected will happen and cause a large amount of sword energy to riot, resulting in his death.
No matter how tough his life was, he couldn't withstand the explosion of so many Zhuxian sword energies. If an ordinary person dared to come to the depths of the West, it would be good enough to be able to save his life, how could he dare to seek merit? If he forced himself to do it, there would be no other way except death.
Seeing this, Guangchengzi couldn't help but think of two Western saints with great perseverance and determination.
"Are you the disciple of Daoist Fellow Yuanshi? Haha, I heard Daoist Fellow Nuwa mention you a few days ago, and I happened to talk about you with Daoist Fellow Jieyin these days. I didn't expect to see you here today. It's true that you can't talk about people behind their backs."
Just as Guangchengzi was lost in thought, a gentle voice sounded, and then a Taoist with two buns on his head, a yellow face and a thin body suddenly appeared in front of him. He was smiling at him at this moment, and thousands of golden wheels appeared behind him. This was a truly great man of merit.
When he saw this Taoist appear inexplicably and heard him call Nuwa "fellow Taoist" and Jieyin "brother Taoist", Guangchengzi immediately recognized him as the Taoist Zhunti.
After Zhunti Taoist finished speaking, he saw Guangchengzi standing there without saying anything. He thought that he didn't know him, so he didn't get angry. He smiled and said, "My name is Zhunti, the master of Mount Xumi. I have met Taoist Yuanshi several times. I have also discussed Taoism with him on Mount Buzhou. Today, you can just call me Uncle Master."
Guang Chengzi came back to his senses at this time, and quickly bowed his head, saying: "Disciple Guang Chengzi, greetings to Master Uncle Zhunti."
Taoist Zhunti nodded slightly, and then said: "I have seen that since you came to the West, you have been here to clear these Zhuxian sword energies. You can be said to have great virtues. I can also see that Taoist Yuanshi has a good way of teaching.
I just saw you heading deep into the west, is there something wrong? You must know that if you go further in, you will reach Mount Xumi, and beyond Mount Xumi, you will reach the battlefield of the great battle between Taoism and demons.
It's so dangerous there that even I don't dare to go in easily. Although you are a disciple of Taoist Yuanshi, you will die if you go in rashly."
Guangchengzi knew how deep the control of Zhunti and Jie Yin over the West was. The vacuum zone here might have been created by these two saints.
He could only create a little bit of soil of vitality with all his efforts, but these two great gods could wipe out an entire world with their sword energy and death energy with just one move. It can be seen that they are not inferior to those top gods, and may even be better than them.
At least in his opinion, this Zhunti is much stronger than Dijiang. It is no problem for him to suppress the opponent in a one-on-one fight, but it is a bit difficult to kill him. He is only slightly inferior to Yuanshi Tianzun.
But it is not surprising. If there is someone who can still practice hard and stick to himself in such an environment, if nothing else, at least his state of mind will not be weak.
Guangchengzi extinguished several thousand Zhuxian sword energies and felt that his endurance against these things had increased a lot.
No one knows how many thousands of Daos Zhunti has destroyed, which shows that his state of mind and cultivation is very high, which is rare in the prehistoric world.
Therefore, hiding one's own purpose in front of such an existence and speaking perfunctorily is a very stupid thing to do. It will only make Zhunti feel offended and think that Guangchengzi treats him as a fool. Fortunately, he doesn't want to do such stupid things.
Guang Chengzi first performed a Taoist salute, and then slowly said: "This time, my disciple came here, in addition to wanting to do something for the West, he also wanted to find a predestined object. I hope that Master Zhunti will help me. I will be very grateful."
Everyone likes to hear nice words, and what's more, Guangchengzi was not wrong, he just changed the relationship.
