Day and night tour

Chapter 255: Seeking the Dragon
With Miss Qiang's persuasion, Zhou Xuan quietly waited for the black water and the blood well to share the flesh and blood of the "ghost hand".

While sharing the food, Miss Qiang and Zhou Xuan discussed Peng Sheng.

"Ah Xuan, Peng Sheng is not the Peng Sheng of the past. He is just a spirit that possesses Peng Sheng's memories, emotions, and the power of incense. He was created by the well god."

"Then what is the difference between him and the real Peng Sheng's soul?"

"Uh... there's no difference."

Miss Wall thought for a while and said.

If two people have the same emotions, the same memories, and even the same code of conduct, then aren't these two people the same person?
Zhou Xuan asked Miss Qiang: "I heard from the four brothers of the Shi family that the Dharma body of the three-headed stone Buddha is in the tattoo forbidden area, relying on Peng Sheng's corpse as a breeding ground for recovering its strength.
If I take that corpse and put Peng Sheng's soul into it, can I turn Peng Sheng into a living person?"

"It can't be put in directly, but it's not a big problem. I can help you and let Pengsheng be reborn in the true sense."

Miss Qiang was not worried about whether Peng Sheng could be resurrected, she was more worried about Zhou Xuan...

"Ah Xuan, the Well God helped you to reshape the god. The Peng Sheng he reshaped can control your body and exert the strength of eight incense sticks. For you, this is actually a kind of protection. But if you revive Peng Sheng, Peng Sheng will be a free individual and can no longer protect you all the time.
Do you really want him to leave?"

Miss Wall asked.

Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "Rather than letting Taohua Wu become a spirit in my secret realm, I would rather he be a living person."

When Miss Qiang heard this, she was moved and her ideas were challenged.

She once created Bone Old Man, and in a sense, she is the real mother of Bone Old Man.

However, in order to pass on the secret of flesh and blood from generation to generation, the Bone Elders not only developed a way to deal with Miss Wall, but also kept her in the basement of Huifeng Medical College and controlled her freedom.

However, Zhou Xuan was willing to resurrect Peng Sheng and gave him absolute freedom, and he never even had the selfish intention of "imprisoning" him.

"People are different. I don't know what your Flesh and Blood Dynasty is like, but in Jing Country, there is Lord Jian who resists the will of the Time Realm and guards Taiping Mansion.

There is also the City God Qingfeng who refuses to go along with the kidnappers.
Gu Lao would be so despicable as to imprison you, but I won't."

Zhou Xuan poked Miss Qiang's forehead and said, "If one day you find a way to return to the Flesh and Blood Dynasty, I will sincerely wish you well and send you off."

Miss Qiang smiled knowingly. At this moment, she truly felt the breath of freedom.

While the two were talking, Black Water and Blood Well had already finished eating Guishou's body.

Finally, Heishui took the ghost hand's bones back to the secret realm.

In Zhou Xuan's divine secret realm, the black water created waves hundreds of meters high.
And Feiyue also expanded infinitely, and the originally huge Chenghuang Taoist Temple now became like a small boat.

In the secret realm, the wind and clouds are surging.

Zhou Xuan and Miss Qiang, who were standing in the black water, were not panicked. They watched the spectacular scene side by side.

The black water, wave after wave, rushed towards the red moon.

Feiyue also took on a huge amount of black water.

The black water formed a whirlpool in the scarlet moon, and the whirlpool was spinning with a deafening roar.

After the roar sounded several times in succession, the sound of a dragon's roar was heard.

The dragon roared sharply, and as it roared, the second incense stick suspended beside Zhou Xuan's shoulder burned rapidly.

The incense stick was originally less than two inches long, but Long Xiao increased its burning speed, and it burned out in one breath...

And in front of Zhou Xuan, a mirror appeared.

There is a mask hidden in the mirror, and on the mask there is a tattoo of a peach tree.

Zhou Xuan understood and pointed towards the mirror.

Many cracks appeared on the mirror.
"boom!"

The mirror shattered, and the tattoo artist's mask hung on Zhou Xuan's waist.

The Nuo ritual is performed in nine halls, and after each hall is completed, there will be a mask.

This is Zhou Xuan’s second mask… “Peng Hou Mask”.

At the same time, the Scarlet Moon fell to the ground, and black water churned in it. From the perspective of Zhou Xuan and Miss Qiang, the center of the Scarlet Moon was bottomless and extremely dark. The two looked down, and their sights were swallowed by the darkness.
"The Well God's Scarlet Moon is now like a bottomless abyss."

The sound of the dragon's roar echoed in the abyss.

Zhou Xuan couldn't help but say: "The hidden dragon is in the abyss."

As soon as he finished speaking,
In the abyss, golden spots of light flashed.

The light spot is growing rapidly.
A few moments later, the abyss was illuminated by golden light and a five-clawed golden dragon flew up from the abyss and swam around in the Divine Secret Realm.

The golden dragon seemed unwilling to be bound by the secret realm and wanted to leave, so it danced its body. After soaring into the sky for nine days, it quickly crashed into the edge of the secret realm.

The collision caused the secret realm to shake.

Zhou Xuan is the master of the secret realm. If the secret realm collapses, his incense will be abolished.

The danger of the secret realm made Zhou Xuan more determined to fight. He seemed to be the Zhou Xuan who was possessed by the Nuo god in Pengjia Town three hundred years ago.

His robe fluttered, and he closed his eyes and pointed in the direction of the golden dragon, roaring,

"You evil beast, where can you run?"

Roaring, Zhou Xuan opened his eyes sharply, and reached out with his right hand towards the golden dragon.

His fighting spirit drove the black water into a giant hand that covered half of the secret realm and grabbed towards the golden dragon.

After the golden dragon was tied up by the black water's hand, the dragon's roar became angry, and it twisted its huge body and struggled hard.

But it can't escape the will of the black water.

"Jingzi, this dragon won't obey. Beat it until it obeys."

Zhou Xuan pointed his right hand towards the blood well, and the Crimson Moon began to spin rapidly. As it spun, a scorching red mist appeared on the moon.

The mist was like a blood-red dart that broke away from Feiyue and was thrown at the five-clawed golden dragon. Every time it was thrown, the golden dragon let out a painful howl.

Hundreds, thousands of javelins were gradually subduing the golden dragon's will.

at last,

The golden dragon stopped struggling and begged for mercy amidst its howling. However, the blood well did not stop its darts. One after another, like a heavy rain, it completely wiped out the golden dragon's will.

The golden dragon's body became smaller and smaller until it turned into a stick of incense. It flew above Zhou Xuan's head and hovered there.

Zhou Xuan felt a resonance with the incense stick, and waves of dragon roars echoed in his body.

"The third stick of incense, looking for the dragon!"

The golden dragon was subdued, and the black water poured down and fell into the scarlet moon again.

On the scarlet moon, an inky black tortoise pattern appeared.

There are many runes on the black tortoise's carapace, flashing with a strange luster, as if calculating everything that happens between heaven and earth.
In the eyes of the black tortoise, Zhou Xuan's figure kept changing. Sometimes he was dressed like a modern person, sometimes he was wearing Nuo opera costumes and standing on the stage giving a lecture, and sometimes Zhou Xuan was carrying a red coffin and walking in the world of time and space...

During the deduction, Xuan Gui sighed with joy, nodded heavily at Zhou Xuan, and then turned into an incense stick engraved with "Xuan Gui Cloud Pattern" and hung it above Zhou Xuan's head.

Xuan Gui represents the "Dunjia" of the gods.

"The fourth incense stick, escape armor."

Two consecutive incense sticks were hung beside Zhou Xuan.

"The third and fourth incense sticks are actually from the God's Hall?"

"The third incense stick is about finding dragons. Lao Yun is going to teach me something real this time."

Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

This time, Blood Well and Black Water simultaneously shared the god-level alien ghost "Ghost Hand" and helped Zhou Xuan light two incense sticks.

"Ms. Wall, I don't quite understand why they eat the flesh and blood of White Walkers, but the incense they light for me is all incense from the gods?"

"The God of Black Water and the God of Well absorb the incense, but they don't directly transfer the incense to you. Instead, they rely on the incense to gain a certain amount of power, and help you find the opportunity of the two halls."

Miss Qiang said: "Why is it difficult to practice Nuo in nine halls? Because every stick of incense absorbs the incense from other halls, and requires the approval of the ancestors of each hall.

Naturally, the other halls would not be willing to hand over their incense offerings, unless there was an opportunity, the founder would agree.

You can cultivate the storyteller with your first incense stick. Why? Because the master you worship is a storyteller. He led Bifang into your secret realm and was then subdued by the Nuo God.

The second incense stick, you can practice tattooing because the obsession of the tattoo clan has come to you, and the tree clan has a request to you, so they let the peach blossom ancestor tree teach you to learn the twenty-four sets of gods' pictures.

The third incense stick, Xiu Xunlong, you also saw it, it was your fighting spirit, the God of Black Water, and the God of Well that took action at the same time and subdued the golden dragon from the human world that was attracted to the secret realm.

The fourth incense stick attracted the god of the well and the god of black water, the ancestor of Dunjia, the "Black Turtle". The Black Turtle deduced your future and was very shocked. He agreed to let you burn this incense stick."

Zhou Xuan then knew where the incense offerings at the Danuo Hall came from. Some were obtained by persuading people to do things rationally or emotionally.

If you have some, you have to rob them.
For example, the incense for searching dragons is obtained by defeating the golden dragon on earth.

"If you have four incense sticks, you will have the combat power of four incense sticks. When you have completed the two incense sticks, it will be the fifth incense stick."

Miss Qiang looked at Zhou Xuan with a smile.

The more powerful Zhou Xuan became, the more Miss Qiang felt that there was hope for her "journey home".

Even if the Flesh and Blood Divine Dynasty was destroyed, she wanted to go back to that wasteland to take another look.

"The corpse of the ghost hand made me two incense sticks, it's a good deal."

Zhou Xuan also hopes to increase the incense offerings as soon as possible.

……

When Zhou Xuan came out of the secret realm, his whole state was different and his aura became noticeably stronger.

Master Jiu looked at Zhou Xuan carefully and said, "Your aura just now was at most two or three incense sticks. Why does it feel like four or five incense sticks now?"

"Master Jiu, I just finished burning the second incense stick, and the third and fourth incense sticks are burning at the same time."

"???"

Mr. Jiu was quite knowledgeable, and he had never heard of two incense sticks burning at the same time.

Lady Red Coffin also didn't believe it and said, "Young Master, you must be joking. The iron rule of cultivation in Jing Country is to cultivate one stick of incense at a time. After you finish one stick, you can cultivate the next one. How can you cultivate two sticks of incense at the same time?"

"Indeed, I practiced for two incense sticks at the same time. For the third incense stick, I practiced the Dragon Hunting Technique, and for the fourth incense stick, I practiced the Dunjia Technique. They are all from the gods."

Zhou Xuan said very seriously.

Everyone then stopped thinking he was joking and were all astonished that this Danu temple was so strange that two incense sticks could be used for practicing together.

"It's not that the hall of Da Nuo is weird, it's that the sacrifice offered by boy Xuan this time is very powerful." While Zhou Xuan was burning incense in the secret realm, Lord Jian was on his way to Dongjiang Town.

At this moment, he was late.

"Xuan boy, congratulations on lighting two incense sticks at the same time. The lineage of Xunlong and Dunjia is about to produce a famous figure."

Lord Jian preached to Zhou Xuan.

"Master Jian, you said that my sacrifice was powerful, so I was able to light two incense sticks. If I make the sacrifice more powerful, wouldn't I be able to light three incense sticks at the same time?"

"That's impossible."

Lord Jian said: "The incense in our hearts is a connection with the gods in heaven. The breath of heaven and earth enters our bodies, allowing us to reach the sky.

Two sticks of incense have already brought in an extremely majestic aura of the weather. If you practice three sticks in one go, your body won’t be able to withstand it.”

Master Jiu also smiled and said, "Xiao Xuan, cultivating two incense sticks at the same time is already a great fortune that other disciples can only envy. Don't be too greedy."

The highest number of incense sticks in Jing Country is nine. If two incense sticks can be burned every time, it will take five times to reach the human limit of Jing Country. That is very fast.

"I can't help but be jealous. I can't help but be jealous."

Lady Red Coffin looked at Zhou Xuan with envy. Last time, she wanted to see Zhou Xuan's Cleansing Scroll, but she couldn't even see it.

This time, I watched Zhou Xuan jump directly from two incense sticks to four incense sticks. This person is so annoying.

"Everyone, I won't say any more for now. Peng Hou is not dead yet, and the Hong Bo has not subsided yet. We still have to keep working hard."

Zhou Xuan bowed to everyone and swam to the top of the flood peak again.

Without the ghost hand and the heavenly official to help control the water,
It was difficult for Peng Hou to control the water alone and expand the water level. He did not dare to use all his strength. Once he used all his strength, his aura would spread out and he would not be able to hide in the flood.

"Peng Hou, you are the only one left."

Zhou Xuan activated the Dark Stone again.

When the Dark Stone emitted a faint blue glow, a snow-white eye appeared above the flood in Mingjiang Prefecture.

……

In Jiuli Mansion, the lid of a coffin was opened, and a very beautiful hand was waving gently.

In order to prevent Jiuli Mansion from collapsing, Zha Xing had no choice but to save Mingjiang Mansion, but she didn't know that Mingjiang Mansion was almost out of danger at this time.

"Mingjiang Mansion, it's time for fog to rise."

The power of covering the stars gathers.

……

The snow-white eye of Mingjiang Mansion hanging high in the sky slowly began to spread with mist under the urging of Zhaxing.

Zhou Xuan re-entered the Mingshi gathering.

"Peng Hou, I saw Xiang Yuhuo take action. He killed the Heavenly Official and the Ghost Hand in succession."

Zhou Xuan imitated the tone of "Mo Tingsheng" and said.

When Peng Hou heard this, he immediately flew into a rage: "How is this possible? How is this possible? Incense and fire cannot be used in the human world."

The Hundred Eyes High Priest also said: "Great Ancestor, it is true. My eyes can no longer see the aura of those two god-level beings."

“They went back to heaven.”

"No."

The Hundred-Eyed High Priest said in a decisive tone.

Wansejie has always been hot-tempered, but the reputation of "Incense and Fire" is too big, and she is overwhelmed.

She said, "Peng Hou, retreat, it's still not too late to run away."

Venerable Yunwu scolded, "Have you become less courageous after spending so many years in Jing Country?"

"Venerable Yunwu, the incense and fire can kill the ghost hand and the heavenly official quickly. How high is your level of Taoism? Are you still going to watch us die?"

Zhou Xuan was immersed in the role, angrily scolding the Yunwu Reverend outside the Well Kingdom.

"Peng Hou, retreat and return to the forbidden area of ​​tattoos."

Wansejie didn't care about Venerable Yunwu's attitude. At this critical moment, saving life was the most important thing.

Peng Hou still insisted. His desire to restore the nine incense sticks was too strong.

He couldn't accept the pain of having the incense right in front of him but being unable to smoke it.

"I won't leave! I won't leave."

……

The fog in Mingjiang Prefecture was getting thicker and thicker, especially where Hong Bo passed. The fog was like a ball of cotton that covered the sky. Standing in the fog and stretching your hand forward, you couldn't see your own fingers clearly.

……

“Incense and Fire has really arrived.”

Peng Hou, who had been "obstinate and unrepentant", suddenly cried out in surprise.

"What's coming?"

"Incense and fire, my water control method has failed. I can feel that the flood is receding."

Marquis Peng never thought about the fog above Mingjiang Mansion.

Zha Xing was once one of the Nine Incense Sticks in the World, and now... she still is.

The reason why Zhaxing is called Zhaxing is that she can borrow power from the stars and use her own power to cover the stars and the sky.

The gods of the sky can control water, move mountains, create wind, and make rain fall, relying on their divine nature being connected to the sky, and their roots are still in the sky.

Once the sky and stars are blocked by the Star-Blocking, they will be unable to use their divine power.

Two hundred years ago, Zha Xing was guarding the human world. With her presence, the gods from the sky descended to the human world and became no different from the high-ranking officials in the human world. Their greatest reliance - the power of gods - was stripped away by Zha Xing.

But everyone thought that Zhaxing had fallen.
Peng Hou also thought so.

The Hundred-Eyed High Priest and the Ten Thousand Colors Realm also think so.

In addition, they had the rumor of "incense and fire taking action" spread by Zhou Xuan, so they had a preconceived idea that the means to isolate the power of the gods came from "incense and fire."

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Wan Se Jie shouted madly at Peng Hou.

She looked down on Peng Hou, but today Peng Hou is still a very powerful force in the forbidden area of ​​tattoos.

She couldn't bear to watch Marquis Peng die in Mingjiang Mansion.

"I'm leaving now."

Peng Hou couldn't stay in the midst of the chaos any longer and wanted to leave.

But Peng Hou is different from Guishou and Tianguan.

The Ghost Hand and the Heavenly Official rely on the Taoists to descend. This way of descending not only prevents them from exerting their peak combat power, but also prevents them from using the laws.

Peng Hou was born three hundred years ago, relying on the Peach Blossom Tree and the Tattoo Clan's flesh and blood container. He can exert peak combat power and also exert the laws.

His law is called the law of dreams.

"If I want to leave, even the incense and Taoist priests can't stop me."

After Peng Hou escaped from the flood, he relied on the laws of dreams to connect the dreams of all the sleeping people in Mingjiang Mansion together into one huge dream.

And Peng Hou hid in this dream, and used this dream as a channel to escape from Mingjiang Prefecture.

After he escaped from the flood, Zhou Xuan used his powerful perception to look for Peng Hou, but there was no news.

"Miss Qiang, Marquis Peng said that he used the laws of dreams to escape from Mingjiang Mansion. What are the laws of dreams?"

Zhou Xuan asked.

"I don't know. I don't really understand the laws of Jing Country, and I haven't studied them in depth."

Miss Qiang replied decisively: "I study the flesh and blood body, and the laws of Jingguo are very strange. They all use space, dreams, and time, which are all illusory things."

Miss Lian Qiang didn't know the laws of dreams, so Zhou Xuan returned to his body and asked Zhou Lingyi: "Sister, Peng Hou relied on the laws of dreams to escape. What are the laws of dreams like?"

"I'll go ask Mr. Yuan."

Zhou Lingyi naturally didn’t understand the rules of dreams, but Yuan Buyu did.

After Yuan Buyu reached the seventh incense stick level, he became drowsy every day. Zhou Lingyi used to think that he was unstable at the seventh incense stick level and needed to rest.

Later I learned that Yuan Buyu was a genius among storytellers. After just seven incense sticks, he madly comprehended the laws of dreams.

"The law of dreams? When I am in a coma, I always have strange dreams. The people in my dreams are all people I have never seen before.

Yuan Buyu explained to Zhou Lingyi: "Later I found out that it was the dreams of other people that I accidentally connected to. I entered someone else's dream. This is the first level of the dream law, called "The Great Dream of Thousand Years".
When Xiao Xuan fought against the Willow God before, the Willow God was able to turn reality into a dream. This is the second level, called "Nightmare Coming to the World"

According to what Xiao Xuan said, Peng Hou relied on the dream law to escape from Mingjiang Mansion. This means that he can connect the dreams of many people and then walk in the dream. This is already the third level of the dream law, called "Big Dream World".
The dream became a world similar to reality, and he could walk and travel in this world. "

Zhou Lingyi then relayed Yuan Buyu's words to Zhou Xuan word for word.

After hearing this, Zhou Xuan understood how Peng Hou escaped, and asked, "Sister, ask Master, if many people's dreams are connected, will they always be connected? For example, if I have a dream now, will my dream be connected to the 'big dream' created by Peng Hou?"

"Mr. Yuan said yes." Zhou Lingyi said.

"Then I am sleeping now. If I have a dream that is connected to Lord Peng's dream, and I appear in Lord Peng's dream, can't I track Lord Peng's whereabouts?"

After Zhou Lingyi told Yuan Buyu about Zhou Xuan's thoughts, Yuan Buyu shook his head and said, "You entered his dream and became part of it. You have no consciousness or perception, just like a brick in a house. You can't find him."

"Don't mention it, I actually came up with an idea."

If Zhou Xuan was dreaming, he would only become a brick and tile in Peng Hou's dream and would not be able to track down Peng Hou.

"But...if I have a dream and let the consciousness of other people enter my dream, wouldn't this consciousness enter the big dream world and become the eyes to track down Peng Hou's whereabouts?"

When a person's consciousness enters another person's dream, he or she will be entangled by the whispers in the dream. A normal person cannot enter the dream.

"What if it's an abnormal person?"

Zhou Xuan immediately thought of the person who appeared in his dream - "the entire Blood Well Society".
