Chapter 72: Black Flame Enters the Body

Chapter 72: Black Flame Enters the Body

The fire lotus suddenly appeared. Although it was not fatal, the burning pain was still unbearable for most cultivators. Even though the Five Finger Mountain was rich in resources, cultivators from all parties did not dare to stay any longer and retreated one after another.

"Let's retreat too."

The disciples of Taisu Palace moved quickly and went deep into the second peak of Wuzhi Mountain. After helping several fellow disciples to put out the fire lotus, Liu Yiyu counted the number of people and called everyone to evacuate.

"Wait a minute."

When he was about to fly out of the second peak, Yan Xiaoyang suddenly stopped.

Liu Yiyun looked over and said, "Sixth Junior Brother, what's wrong?"

Yan Xiaoyang looked around and said, "I feel a special breath." Feeling that the breath came from the east, he flew over immediately.

When the others saw this, they hurried to follow and soon saw Yan Xiaoyang holding out a golden object from the crevice of the cliff.

"What it is?"

Liu Yiyun and others gathered around and saw clearly what was in Yan Xiaoyang's arms.

It was a little golden monkey that looked like it was only a few days old.

Yan Xiaoyang looked at the little monkey in her arms with pity: "This little monkey's parents are probably in danger. I wonder how it managed to survive these days trapped in the crevice?"

Liu Yiyun and others looked at each other helplessly when they saw Yan Xiaoyang's expression.

Well, given Sixth Junior Brother’s kind nature, he will definitely take the monkey back to Taisu Palace.

Liu Yiyun: "Let's get out of the mountain quickly and don't keep the elders waiting for too long."

Yan Xiaoyang carefully held the little golden monkey and quickly caught up with the team.

On the other side, the people from Shura Sect were also fleeing frantically out of the mountain. Just when they were about to fly out of the first peak, a fire lotus appeared out of nowhere and blocked their way.

"Helmsman, what should I do?"

The leader of the Qingzhou branch of Shura Sect quietly took out a black jade lotus petal. A black light flashed at the fingertips of the Qingzhou leader, and soon, black flames appeared on the jade lotus petal.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"

Several wisps of black flame flew out and sank into the body of the Shura Sect disciple.

"Go stop Huo Lian."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people of Shura Sect seemed to be controlled and rushed towards Huo Lian desperately, while the leader of Qingzhou took the opportunity to escape.

However, what he didn't expect was that he was stopped by two figures, one big and one small, before he ran far.

The Qingzhou helmsman looked at the two people in front of him with a vigilant expression, with black light shining brightly on his fingertips, as if he was ready to ignite the black jade lotus petals in his hand at any time.

Hua Changxi frowned and glanced at the distance, at the Shura Sect disciples who didn't know how to escape and were just fighting against the Fire Lotus with all their might. He was once again certain that the Shura Sect was not a righteous sect.

"Leave the mine spirit here."

Hearing this, the Qingzhou helmsman's face turned cold: "We caught the mine spirit with great difficulty. If you want it, go and catch it yourself. If you want to get something for nothing, don't you look at who is standing in front of you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Qingzhou helmsman lit the black jade lotus petals in his hand.

"Whoo~"

"Whoo~"

Two strands of black flames quickly attacked Hua Changxi and Shan Ling.

Hua Changxi also threw out the fire lotus at the first moment.

The fire lotus and the black flame passed through each other like two completely unrelated forces, and neither could do anything to the other.

Looking at this scene, Hua Changxi was stunned for a moment, and it was this moment of stunned thought that gave the Qingzhou helmsman an opportunity.

When the Qingzhou captain saw the fire lotus, the grand fire lotus that blocked the giant monkey immediately emerged in his mind. He was almost scared to death. He guessed that the person who intercepted him was the ruthless man who dared to fight the giant monkey. He gritted his teeth, used up most of his spiritual power, and swung out a ball of black flame.

Hua Changxi dodged quickly, but the black flame suddenly exploded in mid-air. Countless black flames scattered in all directions, and finally a strand of black flame hit the back of his hand.

The black flame was like water dropping into the sea, instantly penetrating into Hua Changxi's body.

"Make way and kill the other monks in the mountain."

When the Qingzhou helmsman saw the black flame enter Hua Changxi's body, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately recited the incantation and began to give orders.

Hua Changxi heard a fairly loud voice whispering in her ear, which made her want to follow the instructions, but the voice was a little vague and not firm enough.

The leader of Qingzhou was only a Qi Hai realm cultivator and had limited influence on Hua Changxi who was in the Jin Dan realm. Hua Changxi was only dazed for a moment and quickly broke free from his control.

Hua Changxi, who originally had no intention of killing, at this moment, looked at the Qingzhou helmsman with a strong murderous intent in his heart.

"Boom~"

The fire lotus, which could be extinguished with a little effort, suddenly became more blazing. The Qingzhou helmsman who wanted to take the opportunity to escape watched helplessly as the fire lotus became more and more solid until he was completely trapped by it.

"Don't~"

In fear and despair, the Qingzhou helmsman was engulfed by flames.

The monks in the mountains who were still hoping for a lucky break shuddered when they heard the Qingzhou helmsman's final scream.

People from Taisu Palace and the Demon-Suppressing Army also heard it.

"Sure enough, the master of Five Finger Mountain doesn't stop killing people."

"It's good that they didn't start killing people right from the start."

"Get out!"

"Fairy, are you okay?"

After the Qingzhou leader was burned to death, Hua Changxi began to sense his own body, trying to find the black flame that had penetrated into his body.

Shan Ling was a little worried when he saw that she didn't move.

Hua Changxi frowned: "Actually, I don't want to kill anyone."

Shan Ling nodded hurriedly: "I know, I know, the fairy is a kind and benevolent person."

Hua Changxi saw that Shan Ling had misunderstood her meaning and said, "Don't flatter me. I really didn't mean to kill anyone, but just now, I couldn't stop my killing intent."

Although the person from Shura Sect failed to control her, she was definitely affected by the black flame.

What on earth is that black flame? It seems to be able to control people's emotions.

Hua Changxi was a little worried, and after solving the problem of the mine spirit, he planned to go back to the Third Peak to have a thorough health check.

"Fatty, are there any trees in the mountains that can block out the smell?"

"Yes, Xuanmu can block all auras."

Hua Changxi pointed at the black jade lotus petals left by the Shura Sect members and said, "Get me a piece of it to put in this."

The mountain spirit nodded, and disappeared with a whoosh. Not long after, it reappeared with a whoosh, with a branch as thick as an adult's thigh in its arms.

Hua Changxi controlled his spiritual power and made a simple wooden box. He put the black jade lotus petals in it and made sure that it did not emit any strange smell before putting it into the Shennong Ding.

Seeing that the matter of Shura Gate was settled, the mountain spirit grabbed the inch-long five-colored insect jumping on the ground and said, "Fairy, look, this is the mine spirit."

Hua Changxi looked down and waved her hand, and the five-colored insect floated on her palm: "Is this the mine spirit?" The mountain spirit nodded: "Yes, those black-robed people are too evil and greedy. They want to mine, but they want to take the mine spirit away. If the mine spirit is taken away, the spiritual mine will become a dead mine, and it will be gone after it is used up."

Hua Changxi looked at him and said, "You mean, as long as there is a mineral spirit, spiritual minerals can be produced continuously?"

Shan Ling thought for a moment and said, "If the circulation of spiritual energy between heaven and earth is not blocked, it would be like this."

Hua Changxi: "Is our spiritual energy not blocked now?"

Shan Ling: "It is blocked, and it is seriously blocked. We are sealed off, and the spiritual energy is just beginning to recover."

"and many more."

Hua Changxi quickly stopped him and said, "We are sealed off. What does this mean?"

Shan Ling: "We are the ones who are sealed up."

Hua Changxi: "We are sealed? Why are we sealed?"

Shan Ling shook his head: "I don't know."

Hua Changxi found that the more he understood some things, the more confused he became: "We are sealed, so where does the spiritual energy come from?"

Shan Ling: "It was accumulated in the past. Now that the seal is loosened, the spiritual energy is slowly seeping out. Once the seal is completely broken and the spiritual energy outside is allowed to come in, the spiritual energy will begin to circulate. Otherwise, it will only consume the existing spiritual energy and it will be exhausted."

Hua Changxi felt a little overwhelmed, feeling that he had found out something incredible: "Who sealed us?"

The mountain spirit shook his head again: "I don't know either." Then he stretched out his right hand, pinched the tip of his little finger with his thumb, and said in a very conscientious manner, "The mountain god is only the last god, and there is no way to know what is happening above."

Afterwards, Hua Changxi learned a lot about cultivating immortals from the mountain spirit. He knew that if he placed the mineral spirit anywhere, the spiritual energy in that place would become richer, and after a period of accumulation, new spiritual mines would be formed.

Hua Changxi and Shan Ling sent the mine spirit back to the mine where it had been dug.

Watching the mine spirit sink into the spirit mine, Hua Changxi narrowed his eyes: "Most people, when they see the spirit mine, will only focus on mining, and they will be satisfied with getting some spirit stones."

"But the people of Shura Sect seem to have known about the existence of mineral spirits for a long time. When they see a spiritual mine, they don't dig for spiritual stones, but directly dig for mineral spirits. This Shura Sect has a long tradition."

Only when the inheritance is long enough will one know of the existence of mineral spirits.

After the mine spirit was recovered, the mountain spirit went to patrol the mountain, and Hua Changxi returned to the third peak.

The original Monkey Cave has become the current Fire Spirit Spring Pond. She was in a hurry to chase the Mineral Spirit with the Mountain Spirit, so she didn’t take a good look at the scenery here.

Compared with the desolation before, this place is now full of vitality, with large tracts of spiritual fruit trees, which makes Hua Changxi feel very happy.

She now really has a sense of unreality as if she has become rich overnight.

Happiness comes so suddenly!

Hua Changxi picked some fire-type spiritual fruits and ate them while walking. One hundred meters away from the spring pond, he saw the Buddha's hand that suppressed the Monkey King.

At this time, the Buddha's hand was covered with cracks, as if it would turn into powder at any time.

Hua Changxi walked over and carefully picked up the Buddha's hand. He had felt it was mysterious when he was standing on the clouds at the top of the cave and now that he was holding it in his hand, he felt it was even more mysterious.

"The Kingdom of Buddha is in the palm of your hand."

When Hua Changxi saw these four words on the Buddha's thumb, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Thinking of the giant hand that was pointing to the sky and blocking the sun, as if it was going to destroy the world, she felt envious and wished she could have such ability.

"The Buddha Kingdom in the palm of your hand. This should be a magical power."

Hua Changxi looked at the Buddha's hand carefully, but after looking at it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what it was.

There was no other way, Hua Changxi could only put the Buddha's hand aside and decided to wait until she was free before looking again. She originally wanted to put the Buddha's hand into the Shennong Ding, but she couldn't get it in.

Finally, one could only carefully place the Buddha's hand beside the spring.

Afterwards, Hua Changxi took out a top-grade fire spirit stone bed, lay down on it, and started practicing the Bird Breathing Method, no, it should be called the Vermillion Bird Breathing Method, she felt something was wrong.

The image of Suzaku's breathing in my mind used to be very clear, but now it has become a little dim.

Is it because Suzaku broke out of the body?
Hua Changxi can now know for sure that she has obtained an extraordinary inheritance, which not only teaches martial arts skills, but also has the function of saving lives.

She knew in her heart that if Suzaku had not flown out this time, she would have been dead for sure.

Thinking about it now, she still feels a little scared.

Perhaps it was some accident that she embarked on the path of cultivation. After that, she often acted with an aggressive mentality of taking a chance, without thinking carefully about what kind of consequences she would face and whether she could bear the consequences.

"You must not be so reckless in the future."

"Steady and long-lasting is the correct path of cultivation."

As Hua Changxi immersed herself in cultivation, her consciousness entered the Qi Sea. Once she entered the Qi Sea, she saw the inner elixir, and at this moment, she was on the inner elixir.

Before, 'she' and Neidan were separated.

Hua Changxi didn't quite understand what was going on, but when she stood on the inner elixir, the area of ​​the Qi sea she saw was obviously much larger.

Moreover, 'she' also saw a black flame the size of a fingernail below the inner elixir.

The black flame actually ran into her qi sea!
Hua Changxi tried to put out the black flame, but no matter what she did, the black flame continued to burn.

"What on earth is this black flame?"

Hua Changxi would not be able to feel at ease unless the black flame was extinguished. Thinking of the Shura Sect, the creator of the black flame, she decided that after her body recovered completely, she would go find the people from the Shura Sect.

We must understand the role of the black flame!

Hua Changxi began to practice, and was slightly relieved when she saw that the black flame did not interfere with her practice.

This practice lasts for one day and one night.

When Hua Changxi opened his eyes again, there was uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.

Her cultivation speed has increased. Before, she could only increase her spiritual energy by 2000 points in one hour, but now she can increase her spiritual energy by points in one hour.

Could it be that because she has become one with her inner elixir, her speed has become so fast?

[Realm: Jindan Realm 205 million/1000 million]
Hua Changxi loved the feeling of her cultivation data constantly rising. For the next month, except for eating, occasionally talking to the mountain spirits, and observing the Buddha's hand, she was immersed in cultivation.

Just when Hua Changxi was concentrating on his cultivation, the whole of Dajin was in an uproar and discussion because of the commotion in the Five Finger Mountain.

The imperial court had been hiding the fact of the revival of spiritual energy, but with the commotion at Five Finger Mountain, it could no longer conceal it even if it wanted to.

Even the least informed common people began to spread the news that the mountain god had appeared, not to mention the well-informed nobles and officials.

In the Medical Department, Hall No. 1 on the Second Street, Gu Jinfan listened to the discussions of the disciples in the hall with a frown on his face.

"Have you heard that in this world, the most powerful fighters are not warriors, but cultivators."

"Do you know what a monk is? A monk is a god."

"It's incredible that there are gods in this world. I always thought it was nonsense."

Gu Jinfan didn't listen to the gossip any more and turned to walk towards the square behind.

It would be good if the news of the revival of spiritual energy could spread sooner. This way, local cultivators would have more time to practice and would not be completely helpless when cultivators from outside came knocking on their doorsteps.

Gu Jinfan came to the square, looked at the dusty Medicine Ancestor Cauldron and the dilapidated Dan Sheng Temple, took a deep breath, and knocked on the dilapidated door again.
