The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 337: Imperial Seal, Treasure of Immortality

"Damn Taoist priest, you lied to me!!"

Suddenly, a shrill scream was heard in the desolate mountains, the voice was full of anger and resentment.

At the last moment of her life, the female ghost finally came to her senses. She realized that the other party was not trying to help her escape from the golden circle, but was clearly trying to eat her alive.

This person can actually feed on ghosts!

But she realized it too late. She was restricted by the golden liquid and was hit by Zhong Kui's ghost-killing curse. Finally, she was enveloped by the ghost-eating magical power when she was completely unprepared.

She only felt that the ghost body she had cultivated for hundreds of years began to rapidly disintegrate, and a fear of death surged in her heart.

She had experienced this feeling hundreds of years ago, but she didn't expect to experience it again after becoming a ghost.

At this point, most of her negative energy had been sucked away, and she was no longer able to resist. Even her sanity began to fade, and her resentful cries gradually disappeared.

After a while, Zhang Jiuyang burped and his stomach bulged slightly, as if he had eaten too much.

This female ghost was indeed powerful and had great skills. The reason why he was able to successfully capture her this time was, firstly, that she used a strategy, and secondly, that she inherited the legacy of the great god Zhong Kui, who specialized in defeating ghosts.

hum!
The blood in his body began to boil, refining and decomposing the Yin energy that the female ghost had cultivated for hundreds of years. Faint thundering sounds came from his limbs and bones, and his whole body was like a burning furnace.

The Pure Yang Golden Pill shone brightly, changing its decadent state. It greedily absorbed those strands of heat and refined them into pure magic power.

The Yin Lei power that was originally ready to move was suppressed again, solving his urgent problem.

However, the side effects of the ghost-eating ability also followed. Hundreds of years of resentment rushed towards Zhang Jiuyang like a tide. Even with his current cultivation level, he had to treat it with caution.

Zhang Jiuyang immediately sat down cross-legged, the red mark between his eyebrows shining brightly. In addition to the protection of the Jade Pivot Skyfire, his sea of ​​consciousness was also surrounded by sword energy.

Lord Lingguan's heavenly fire and Lu Chunyang's sword heart, these two magical powers gave him great confidence.

As expected, although the female ghost's resentment was overwhelming, he remained unmoved, his spirit was as tough as a diamond, and he was indomitable.

After an unknown amount of time, the impact of the resentment gradually subsided, and Zhang Jiuyang also focused his attention and began to examine the memory of the female ghost.

Originally, he was just taking a casual look, hoping to learn some information about the tiger, but as he continued to flip through the pages, he suddenly let out a light exclamation and his heart was startled.

After a moment, he couldn't calm down for a long time, and there was a hint of excitement deep in his heart that was difficult to suppress.

It seems like... I found a treasure this time?
As far as he could remember, the female ghost was the favorite concubine of Emperor Qinglong, the last emperor of the previous dynasty Dajing. Although she was not the empress, she was the most beautiful woman in the harem and her fame spread throughout the world.

She is somewhat like Yang Guifei of the Tang Dynasty in previous life, who was the most favored concubine in the world.

The Great Jing Empire had already declined at that time, but normally it would have no problem surviving for another few decades. However, since she entered the palace, Emperor Qinglong became more obsessed with pleasure and debauchery. In order to build various palaces, he did not hesitate to drain the national treasury and even collected taxes for decades.

The people rose up one after another, and Daqian Taizu was one of the heroes who participated in the uprising.

Emperor Qinglong suffered a series of military defeats and finally fled in a hurry. When he passed by Guifei Ridge, the officers and soldiers were very resentful and demanded that the emperor kill the imperial concubine before they would continue to move forward.

Emperor Qinglong had no choice but to bestow three feet of white silk.

However, he still played a trick and ordered people to secretly find a sinister place in Guifei Ridge as a tomb, and set up a Yin-Locking Formation, hoping to raise the concubine into a ghost so that they could continue their previous relationship in the future.

This is also the reason why the female ghost was trapped in Guifei Ridge and unable to get out. The Yin energy was locked under the formation. Although she could thrive like a fish in water, she could not leave.

Perhaps this was what Emperor Qinglong intended.

After all, he had personally sentenced the imperial concubine to death. Although they had a deep relationship, who knew if she would harbor resentment after she turned into a ghost? He also wanted to determine her attitude before considering the next move.

But what Emperor Qinglong did not expect was that the regrouping he imagined did not happen. Daqian Taizu, Zhuge Qixing and Yue Jingzhong formed the Qianyuan Three Heroes, fought battles in the south and the north, and soon unified the country and won the hearts of the people.

The Dajing Dynasty has finally come to an end.

Emperor Qinglong was still unwilling to give up, but his trusted followers did want to give up. In the end, one of his confidants cut off his head and took the reward.

It is worth mentioning that the confidant who cut off his head was later granted a title, and his descendants grew and became powerful, and now one of them has become a remarkable figure, the current powerful prime minister Qin Qianshou.

As time passed, the imperial concubine became a ghost. She did not have any hatred towards Emperor Qinglong, but she no longer had the feelings she had when she was alive. So when the mountain king took a fancy to her beauty, she did not resist.

However, Shanjun was not Emperor Qinglong and was not so easy to control. He only treated her as a tool to vent his anger and was unwilling to break the formation and set her free.

So the imperial concubine had to make up rumors about the King of Ginseng to attract outsiders, and then suck their essence dry for cultivation, hoping that one day she would be able to break the formation on her own.

That's why she was so excited when she saw Zhang Jiuyang. One golden elixir is enough to match thousands of ordinary people!
This is the life of the imperial concubine.

From glory and wealth to the death of a beautiful woman, it is really sad.

But what really shocked and excited Zhang Jiuyang was not her life of ups and downs, but a very small fragment in her memory.

It was the eve of Emperor Qinglong's plan to escape from the palace. Apart from his confidants and the imperial guards, he only told the imperial concubine in the harem and did not even plan to take the empress dowager with him.

"Your Majesty, are we really leaving?"

There was a hint of reluctance in the imperial concubine's voice; she was reluctant to give up her current extravagant life.

"Of course we have to go, and we have to go quickly. It would be best if we leave tonight and go through the Qianqing Gate. I have already made arrangements, and those who are guarding there are all my trusted aides."

Emperor Qinglong had a handsome face, bright eyes, looked elegant and profound, and had excellent appearance. It was hard to imagine that he would be a king who lost his country.

"Your Majesty, can we... come back again?"

Upon hearing what his beloved concubine said, Emperor Qinglong revealed a hint of a smile. He was clearly preparing to abandon his ancestral foundation and escape for his life, but he seemed to have some kind of confidence. He was calm and unhurried, confident and composed.

"Of course we can. We still have the last trump card!"

"What trump card?"

Emperor Qinglong carefully took out something wrapped in yellow cloth from his arms and opened it with great care, revealing the crystal jade with a five-clawed golden dragon carved on it, looking lifelike and majestic.

The imperial concubine let out a cry of surprise and recognized that it was the imperial seal.

But she wondered, "Your Majesty, although the imperial seal is precious, how can it help you recover your country and turn the tide?"

Emperor Qinglong laughed when he heard this and said, "My beloved concubine, you don't know that this imperial seal is not only a symbol of royal power, but also contains the greatest treasure in the world."

"Treasure?"

"Yes, as long as we can get that treasure, not only can we wipe out those bandits, but you and I can also live forever, allowing Dajing to enjoy prosperity for thousands of years!"
