Chapter 2365 Black Lotus
Xiao Wu swallowed the true demonic energy in the crown feathers, but he was still not satisfied.
Her requirements were extremely high. The true demonic energy floating in the void was not what she wanted, and the special true demonic energy in the demon pill and crown feathers was limited.
Qin Sang even suspected that even if she obtained a few more demon pills, it would be difficult to meet her requirements for advancement.
Qingluan Dharmakāya took a short rest and then continued on its way, wandering aimlessly in this space for several days without encountering the third ferocious beast.
This space was indeed too big, and the area he was walking through was probably only a small part of it. According to common sense, it was impossible for such a large hole to appear underground out of nowhere. It might be a special space formed for some reason.
He was very patient and continued to wander, adjusting his direction through the changes in the vital energy in the space.
Unable to encounter the third ferocious beast, Qingluan Fashang finally had no choice but to go to the source of "temptation".
The source of temptation is even deeper. Qingluan Dharmakāya restrained his breath, controlled his speed, and continued to go deeper.
The true demonic energy here gradually gained the upper hand, suppressing the spiritual energy and the six-day ancient energy, but it was still not the kind that Xiaowu wanted.
I don’t know how deep it dived, but Qingluan finally sensed an unusual fluctuation, which was suspected to be another monster.
However, this location is very close to the source of temptation, and the future is uncertain, so Qingluan Fashang does not dare to rush forward directly.
The Qingluan Dharma Image stopped and concentrated to sense it, and found that the wave had stayed in the same place, motionless, which seemed a little strange.
After hesitating for a moment, the Qingluan Dharma Image slowly moved towards that direction. As the distance got closer, he was able to confirm that there was indeed a monster there, and it was not much weaker than the previous snake monster and bone bird.
As the distance got closer, Qingluan's figure suddenly stopped, and the vital energy in front of him began to fluctuate violently, and at the same time a low roar was heard.
The roar was full of murderous intent and warning.
Qingluan Fashang knew that he had been exposed, but this monster did not rush towards him directly like the snake monster and the bone bird.
"Could it be that this demon beast has a higher intelligence?"
Qingluan's eyes were filled with lightning, and its spiritual eyes penetrated the darkness and found the true body of the monster.
This is a black leopard monster, its entire body is pitch black, blending perfectly into the darkness. It seemed to be sleeping just now, and was awakened by the Qingluan Dharma Image. At this moment, it is still lying there prone, with its head raised, staring at me fiercely.
"Woo..."
The two sides' eyes met, and their black pupils burst out with a frightening murderous intent. The black panther's sharp fangs were exposed in its mouth, and it let out a roar. Its whole body was tense, and it could suddenly attack and kill at any time.
But the Black Panther's body did not move.
Being closely stared at by the black panther, Qingluan Dharmakaya slowly retreated, and the low growl became a little weaker. It seemed that the black panther just wanted to warn Qingluan Dharmakaya not to get close to its territory, and that scaring him away was enough, and it did not want to attack him.
The reason why Qingluan Dharmakaya retreated was, firstly, to test Black Panther's attitude, and secondly, he sensed another breath.
There are not only black panthers here, but also other monsters!
If this is the nest of monsters, and they are all violent, why are their nests so close to each other?
Not knowing how many monsters there are around, Qingluan Fashang did not dare to act rashly. The actions of the black panther and the surrounding environment gave him some guesses.
The Qingluan Dharmakaya shifted its gaze away from the black panther and kept a distance from it. Sure enough, the black panther's hostility was greatly reduced. As long as it did not invade its territory, it had no interest in the Qingluan Dharmakaya.
So, what is it that can suppress its violent nature?
Qingluan Dharmakāya tried to move closer to another monster, but this monster was obviously more violent and received a strong warning before Qingluan Dharmakāya could get close.
However, like the black panther, when it saw Qingluan Dharma Image retreat, it put away its murderous intent and had no desire to attack him.
There must be something here that has an incomparable attraction to them, so great that it can suppress their nature. Qingluan Dharma looked at the source of temptation, which was filled with deep darkness and the place with the most concentrated true demonic energy.
The Black Panther and other monsters were guarding here, looking like they were waiting for something. The Blue Luan Dharmadhatu did not act rashly. It kept a distance from them and flew not far away. As expected, it found another monster.
After thinking about it, Qingluan Fashang returned to his original place and waited.
In the dark abyss, the passage of time seemed to slow down, and monsters such as Qingluan Dharmakaya and Black Panther maintained an eerie calm.
This wait lasted for more than two months, but of course compared to their long lives, it was just a blink of an eye.
Qingluan Fashang's eyes gleamed with brilliance. The change he had been expecting finally appeared, and a slight fluctuation came from the source of temptation.
This wave was very strange. Qingluan Dharma could not see the scene in the depths of darkness, but for no reason he thought of a calm lake. The lake suddenly rippled, and he seemed to hear the sound of rippling water...
The surrounding true demonic energy seemed to be drawn by some force and began to vibrate unprecedentedly.
"Huff...Huff..."
The sound of the wind echoed in his ears, and Qingluan Fashang suddenly sensed a familiar breath.
The Five Elements Crown shook slightly, proving that Qingluan Dharma's perception was correct. It was exactly the special true demonic energy that Xiaowu liked.
The special true demonic energy was very similar to the true demonic energy floating in the void. When they were put together, one could feel an obvious difference. The special true demonic energy contained a strange vitality that ordinary true demonic energy did not have.
At this time, Qingluan Dharmakaya sensed the changes in the energy in the distance. It was obvious that the Black Panther and other monsters were waiting for this special demonic energy!
The Qingluan Dharmakāya remained motionless, paying attention to the movements of the Black Panther and other monsters. The expected fight did not happen. These monsters stayed in their own territories and began to devour the special demonic energy tacitly.
No one knew what kind of magical power this special true demonic energy possessed. Black Panther and other monsters were immersed in this state, and the abyss became even quieter.
Qingluan Fashang waited for a while and also tried to attract a wisp of special true demonic energy. He acted very cautiously and was on guard, but Black Panther and other monsters were too lazy to pay attention to him.
He suspected that this position originally belonged to the bone bird or the snake demon. Since no new competitors appeared, the lack of one had no impact on the original situation, so peace could prevail.
Start with special true demonic energy.
The Five Elements Crown in his arms flickered. After Xiaowu came down to earth to gain experience, his temperament became more stable and he rarely looked so anxious.
Compared with the special true demonic energy refined by monsters, this is the purest and most attractive to Xiaowu!
Qingluan Dharma comforted Xiaowu and stared into the depths of darkness, curious about what was releasing the special demonic energy. But he used his full strength to activate his spiritual eyes, but it was useless. There was only darkness in his vision and he could not see anything.
Looking at the Black Panther and other monsters, each of them is concentrating on refining the special true demonic energy. They are so quiet and terrifying. Could it be that the special true demonic energy also has a calming effect?
Qingluan Fashang thought about it and gave up the idea of going in to investigate. Firstly, he didn't know what was inside, and secondly, once his whereabouts were exposed, it would surely anger the Black Panther and other monsters, and he would become the target of public criticism.
These are not ordinary monsters. They all have at least the strength of the late stage of the Refinement Realm. No matter how strong he is, he dare not provoke so many powerful enemies.
I'm afraid we have to let the Tianmu butterfly come down.
The eyes of the Qingluan Dharma Image were slightly closed, and he was concentrating on sensing the deity.
Outside the abyss, Qin Sang's expression changed slightly. After hesitating for a moment, he summoned the Tianmu Butterfly and let her enter the abyss.
In the darkness, a shadow of a butterfly appeared and disappeared from time to time, and soon it successfully met up with the Qingluan Dharma Image.
The Tianmu Butterfly quietly activated its Tianmu magical power and stared ahead.
At first there was endless darkness in the field of vision, but gradually some special outlines began to appear.
Deep in the darkness, there is an area that is particularly dark, as if any light would be swallowed up there.
They vaguely saw a black river. There were no rocks or land on either side of the river, as if it was a river flowing in the void. The contours on both sides of the river were clear, and the river water was composed of extremely thick true demonic energy, but this should be ordinary black demonic energy.
Then, they unexpectedly found a cluster of black lotus in the middle of the river.
Among the wide lotus leaves, three lotus flowers are blooming, and the petals are also black, as if stained with ink. The top one is already in full bloom, the most stretched, the second one is just a bud, and the third one is also open, but is mostly covered by the lotus leaves, like a lute half-covered.
There were wisps of breath emanating from the lotus petals, and Qingluan's expression moved slightly. This black lotus was the source of the special demonic energy!
Unexpectedly, the special true demonic energy that Xiao Wu coveted was actually the aura emitted by these strange black lotuses.
"What kind of natural treasure is the Black Lotus?"
Classic books flashed through my mind.
There are quite a few spiritual lotuses in the world. Qin Sang can easily name dozens of them, all of which are extremely valuable treasures from heaven and earth, but this kind of black lotus is not among them.
It can emit true demonic energy, so I’m afraid it’s not something from the spiritual world. Could it be a seed left behind by an ancient demon?
At this moment, Qingluan Dharma Image let out a sigh, and then saw the second black lotus slowly blooming. But when the three black lotuses were fully bloomed, without any signs, the lotus suddenly turned from flourishing to withering, and the petals fell off one by one.
The black lotus went from blooming to withering in an instant; the lotus leaves and lotus flowers quickly withered and died, and the remaining petals and leaves sank to the bottom of the river in a few breaths.
As the black lotus withered, the special black demonic energy lost its source and was gradually devoured by monsters such as the black panther.
Seeing how they are concentrating on refining, they seem very skilled and this is definitely not the first time they have done this, which means that the black lotus will continue to bloom. It is estimated that it has gone through the transformation of blooming and withering countless times.
But since they valued the special black magic energy so much, why didn't they go in and pick the black lotus? Is it because no one can monopolize the black lotus and they can only compromise, or is there something there that makes them afraid?
He didn't believe that these monsters could really control their nature, so he asked Tianmu Butterfly to use its magical powers at all costs and observe the black lotus carefully. Gradually, he came up with a guess - it was the black lotus that controlled these monsters.
Most of the treasures in the world are guarded by spiritual beasts. Some of them want to occupy the spiritual object, while others are controlled by the spiritual object and become its slaves.
The more precious the spiritual object is, the more disasters it will encounter.
The way of heaven has its own balance. Even if spiritual creatures themselves have no intelligence, they can evolve into various innate magical powers, and controlling spiritual beasts is one of them.
The black lotus should be this kind of spiritual creature. For some unknown reason, the true demonic energy settled here, giving birth to the black lotus, which attracted this group of monsters.
While observing the black lotus, Qingluan Fashang was also keeping an eye on the movements of monsters such as the black panther, but to his disappointment, these monsters had no intention of leaving. Only a very few of them, like the snake monster and the bone bird, were willing to go out for a walk. Most of them stayed here honestly, waiting for the next black lotus to bloom.
If he could take advantage of the opportunity when these monsters were alone and defeat them one by one, and then he could slowly find a way to collect the black lotus, but now it seemed that the chances were slim. However, if he really eliminated all the monsters, it would make too much noise and might cause other variables. He was not completely sure whether the black lotus was ownerless.
He decided to observe patiently for a while.
It didn't take too long to wait. A year later, another black lotus grew in the Black River. After it bloomed three lotus flowers, it withered just like the last time.
This black lotus continuously blooms and withers, over and over again, and every time it blooms, it releases a little special true demonic energy, attracting black panthers and other monsters to stay with them. They can benefit from refining the special true demonic energy, but Qingluan Dharmadhatu dare not do so.
He remained patient and let Qingluan Faxiang stay here. After experiencing ten reincarnations of the Black Lotus, he finally confirmed some things.
The source of temptation was the black lotus. The black lotus and the special true demonic energy it exuded not only attracted the black panther and other monsters, but also contained a certain soothing power, which could control the desires of the black panther and other monsters to a certain extent. Therefore, the black panther and other monsters could stay here quietly, which was in line with his previous speculation.
This is the power of the Black Lotus itself. Because the Black Lotus was born in the special environment of the snowfield, the minds of the monsters are affected by the six-day ancient energy, so they are easily deceived. Therefore, the Black Lotus can control so many big monsters, which is very scary.
If it were a normal demon cultivator in the late stage of the Refining Void Realm, even without the protection of the Jade Buddha, he would not be easily controlled by the Black Lotus.
However, it is still not that easy for Qin Sang to take away the black lotus, and he will definitely be besieged by a group of monsters.
In order to find out the situation, Qin Sang waited patiently for ten years. Not willing to waste any more time, he had already made up his mind.
……
Eleventh year.
The Black River began to ripple as expected, and a small black lotus grew out, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As soon as the little lotus showed its pointed tip, a special demonic energy began to emanate. The black panther and other monsters took a deep breath and concentrated on refining it.
The Qingluan Dharmakaya was not confused, and he and the Tianmu Butterfly focused on the first branch that grew.
The lotus trembled slightly, and the outermost petals slowly opened.
The lotus was about to bloom, and the Qingluan Dharma image finally moved. Green lightning flashed between the wings and feathers. It was more mysterious than his Qingluan Demon Thunder. What was mobilized at this moment was the Qingluan True Thunder.
The next moment, his figure disappeared quietly.
By using the Blue Luan True Thunder to activate the Tianjue Thunder Robe, he can deceive the spiritual perception of monsters like the Black Panther. As long as he gets the Black Lotus, and then uses the Blue Luan True Thunder to activate the Thunder Escape Technique and break out of the encirclement, these monsters will never be able to catch up with him.
The Green Luan disappeared, unnoticed, and quietly moved closer to the Black Lotus, without alarming them.
At the same time, Qin Sang himself outside the abyss had already set up a large formation just in case.
At this moment, Qin Sang slowly stood up and floated above the earth, ready to meet the Qingluan Dharma Image.
