Chapter 221 Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain! Taoist priest at the high-speed railway station
Gathering and replenishing the primordial spirit to refine the elixir, from inaction to existence, there is something and from nothingness.

Swallowing the tiger in the dark night and refining the spirit like a great medicine, this is a business known only to heaven and earth, kept secret and not disclosed by gods and ghosts.

However, the news from the thousand-year-old monster was like a bolt from the blue, stirring Zhang Fan's nerves.

"He knows? Or is there something else? Or maybe..."

In an instant, countless thoughts arose in Zhang Fan's mind, and countless doubts intertwined in his heart.

"What do you mean?" Zhang Fan frowned.

As for this thousand-year-old demon, it started from Zhenwu Mountain. He accidentally saw a post of his about spiritual practice on the Internet. From then on, the two maintained a subtle connection between them both online and offline.

This connection has been continuously magnified, and now it seems to be no longer accidental.

Zhang Fan could feel that this thousand-year-old demon was very familiar with his situation. He even knew everything he saw in his soul's inner vision when he was trapped in the dark night. He even received the other party's advice to enable him to practice the [Fire Dragon Pill Sword].

Sometimes, Zhang Fan even had an illusion that this thousand-year-old demon might be right next to him, or even someone he knew.

But Zhang Fan had many doubts, but he denied them all.

This thousand-year-old demon has mastered the three religions and has unique insights into the way of cultivation. The most important thing is that he seems to be extremely knowledgeable about Taoism and Wuwei.

"You don't need to have any doubts about me. Any doubts will only consume your energy and blood. The growth of thoughts is a carnival of consciousness."

At this moment, the information of the thousand-year-old demon popped up.

"Stop it. Don't try to fool me. Who are you? I have reason to suspect that you have ill intentions." Zhang Fan's fingers were as fast as lightning, tapping on the keyboard.

"The person you should be most suspicious of is not me, but..."

Zhang Fan looked at the pop-up message. The dialog box of the thousand-year-old demon showed "The other party is typing..."

"The girl behind you."

Zhang Fan's pupils suddenly contracted and he subconsciously turned his head to look back.

At this moment, Jiang Lai happened to look at him straight, and their eyes met in the air.

Zhang Fan's face trembled slightly, and he suddenly felt guilty. He moved his gaze back to the screen, and straightened his body slightly to block his computer.

"What do you mean?"

"She'll kill you."

drop……

As the last message was sent, the avatar of the thousand-year-old demon turned gray.

“Fuck… Are you trying to play tricks on me with the Riddler?” Zhang Fan spat, staring at the thousand-year-old demon’s dialog box, staring at the last message.

Jiang Lai?

will not!

Zhang Fan’s ability to reawaken his spirit and embark on spiritual practice has a lot to do with Jiang Lai.

In addition, starting from Zhenwu Mountain, Jiang Lai saved him from danger many times, even at the cost of his own life.

If Jiang Lai really wanted to kill him, there were too many opportunities.

Besides, the thousand-year-old demon did not mention Jiang Lai by name, and his words might not be credible.

"Sooner or later, I will find you out."

Zhang Fan muttered to himself and casually clicked on the homepage of the thousand-year-old demon.

"Um!?"

Just ten minutes ago, the thousand-year-old demon actually updated another post with the title [The most "evil" Taoist mountain - Qingcheng Mountain].

"Qingcheng Mountain..." Zhang Fan's eyes narrowed slightly.

Mount Qingcheng is one of the ten famous Taoist mountains in the world. It has a long history and was listed as one of the five immortal mountains in ancient times.

"Mount Qingcheng is in Sichuan..." Zhang Fan murmured softly. He suddenly thought of Lao Yu and couldn't help but click on the post and start reading it.

"The Sichuan-Shu area is a basin, but in ancient times it was an ocean. Many unearthed marine fossils can serve as evidence..."

Rumor has it that when Dayu was controlling floods, he caused a leak in Sichuan and Shu, which led to the current situation.

From the perspective of Feng Shui, the Sichuan area belongs to the Water Dragon vein, along the Yangtze River, and is in the same lineage as the Yujing City. However, from the perspective of the ancestral temple, it belongs to the Li Dragon, with abundant water vapor, but it is scattered and wild, and the dragon vein is difficult to cultivate. Since ancient times, it has not produced the king's character, and naturally it has no destiny to unify the world.

However, due to such special Feng Shui terrain, Sichuan and Shu have become a blessed place for spiritual practice. Throughout the ages, not only the masters of alchemy, but even demons and ghosts have liked to practice mystical cultivation in places like Sichuan and Shu.

Back then, when the Wuwei Sect was at its peak, its roots were in Sichuan.

Later, the Taoist sect headed by the Zhang family of Longhu Mountain started killing people, destroying mountains and temples and swept across Sichuan and Shu.

"It's the first time I destroyed a mountain or a temple."

Seeing this, Zhang Fan was thoughtful. The first time he broke into the mountain and destroyed the temple, Zhang Daoling, the founder of Longhu Mountain, led all the Taoist masters in the world and went straight into Sichuan and Shu to suppress the five directions, eight divisions and six heavenly ghosts and gods, and became famous throughout the world.

That was also the first confrontation between the Longhu Zhang family and the Wuwei Sect.

The Dharma lineage of Qingcheng Mountain grew in such soil.

Tracing back to its roots, Mount Qingcheng has a long history. During the time of Emperor Huangdi, there was a Qi-refining scholar named Ning Fengzi who lived in Mount Qingcheng to practice Taoism. He taught Emperor Huangdi the "Dragon-riding Art" of controlling wind and cloud. Emperor Huangdi built an altar and worshipped him as the "Father of the Five Mountains". Therefore, later generations also called Mount Qingcheng "Father's Mountain".

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Yin Changsheng, known as one of the "Eight Immortals of Shu", went to Mount Qingcheng to practice Taoism.

However, it was the founder of Taoism, Zhang Daoling, who really made Qingcheng Mountain famous and established its status as a famous Taoist mountain.

"The place where Zhang Daoling passed away..." Zhang Fan's eyes were fixed like a line.

Zhang Daoling, the ancestor of the Longhu Zhang family, became famous in Qingcheng Mountain in his later years and passed away here, which gave Qingcheng Mountain a mysterious hue.

"Why would he go there?" Zhang Fan thought thoughtfully. At that time, Zhang Daoling had already founded Mount Longhu, and the place was already popular. So why would he go so far away after he passed away?

With this in mind, Zhang Fan continued reading.

The reason why Qingcheng Mountain is so evil is that it is said that the mountain behind it is located where the yin and yang worlds meet, and evil spirits often cross the underworld and enter the human world, and there are also mountain spirits and monsters that gather here to practice mysterious cultivation.

Before the first destruction of the mountain and the destruction of the temple, the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain was also known as Ghost City Mountain.

Later, Zhang Daoling preached here and intercepted the dragon energy of the Yangtze River to suppress the five heavens, eight divisions and six heavens ghosts and gods, and sealed the exit from the underworld.

Even so, the root cause has not been eliminated, and Qingcheng Mountain is not only a holy place for Taoism, but also a paradise for demons and ghosts.

Everyone has read the Legend of the White Snake. Bai Suzhen was originally a giant white python that had been practicing for thousands of years, and the place where she practiced was in Qingcheng Mountain.

There is a song called Bai Suzhen under the Qingcheng Mountain.

To this day, there is still a special area near Mount Qingcheng in the Sichuan and Shu areas, which provides a place for mountain spirits, monsters and ghosts to rest and recuperate. It is called the Hometown of Monsters, or the Monster Hometown.

It is said that the mountain spirits and monsters there have high levels of cultivation, some of which are even rare. There are even quite a few river dragons and earth dragons, which are already extremely rare outside.

A delicate balance has been formed between the Taoist sect in Qingcheng Mountain and the demon land, and they can even use the power of the demons to control them.

This is also the most special kind of Dharma lineage inheritance among the Taoists in Qingcheng Mountain.

Back then, the previous generation...

Seeing this, Zhang Fan’s eyelids twitched violently.

The previous generation's Xiao, that is his mother. "The previous generation's Xiao, once hid his identity, entered Qingcheng Mountain to practice Taoism, and mastered the method of [taming monsters]..."

There are demons and ghosts hidden in the mountains and seas, and nine devils are being trained!
A demon is a spirit that has taken over a human body. There will almost always be a rejection reaction between the soul and the body, especially in special circumstances, when the demon goes crazy and some of its original characteristics will show.

This is what is called "revealing one's true colors."

For example, in the Legend of the White Snake, Bai Suzhen began to transform into a snake after drinking a cup of realgar wine, which scared Xu Xian to death, and led to the story of stealing the immortal grass.

Taming demons can suppress the demons' frenzy and prevent them from "revealing their true form". It can also stimulate the demons' potential, refine them into nine forms, and make them lawless.

"The previous generation, Xiao, not only mastered the method of [taming monsters], but also entered the monster village and subdued five incredible monsters, collectively known as..."

"Five demons!"

"The five great demons..." Zhang Fan pondered in silence.

He knew that Bai Yujing, the Snake, was one of the Five Great Demons. She entered the Thirteen Zodiac Signs in her demonic form. Apart from him, only Li Linglong knew this secret.

"Because of this, Qingcheng Mountain hates the previous generation Xiao and regards it as a great shame. Ten years ago, Longhu Chiyue appeared and took action..."

"It is precisely because of this that the Taoists in Qingcheng Mountain possess extremely special powers and should not be easily provoked..."

"Remember! Remember!"

The article ends here.

Zhang Fan looked at it and couldn't help but frowned deeply.

"Who exactly is this thousand-year-old monster?" Zhang Fan became more and more confused.

He was extremely familiar with the stories and secrets of all the Taoist sects, and even knew many details about the previous generation's Xiao and the Dragon, Tiger and Red Moon ten years ago.

Such understanding seems extremely abnormal, even weird.

"His cultivation should be strong, and he should be quite old. Maybe I have seen him before..."

Zhang Fan’s mind quickly began to sketch out a portrait of the thousand-year-old monster.

He was extremely curious about this person, like a cloud of doubt hanging over his heart.

"Um!?"

At this moment, the page of this post suddenly jumped and showed that it was lost.

Zhang Fan clicked on the details and was stunned.

"The post you are viewing has been removed after being reported. If you need..."

"Been reported by someone?" Zhang Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but reveal a strange look of dismay.

Less than 20 minutes after the post was published, the post was reported and removed? Who is so bored?

"Could they be someone from Qingcheng Mountain?" Zhang Fan muttered.

This post by the thousand-year-old demon was talking about Qingcheng Mountain from beginning to end, and he also revealed a lot of other people's secrets that were kept behind closed doors. It seems reasonable if he was reported.

"Just wait, sooner or later, I will find you out."

Zhang Fan took a deep look and found that the thousand-year-old demon had turned into a gray avatar. He closed the page of the "pornographic book" and immediately plugged in the USB flash drive given by Sui Chunsheng. He opened the special link in the USB flash drive and automatically jumped to a separate page, which was the internal mall of the Taoist Alliance.

"Fenbao Rock!?"

Zhang Fan glanced at the name of the Dao League’s internal mall and couldn’t help but laugh. It sounded like it was free.

"If you are a brother, come and chop me..."

Zhang Fan's hand slipped, and an extremely noisy and golden game page popped up.

“Why are there still advertisements…” Zhang Fan rolled his eyes.

He closed the ad page and took a quick look. He had to admit that the Dao League's internal mall was indeed all-encompassing, with all kinds of products, including medicinal materials, rare treasures, magic tools, and talismans...

However, most of the prices there are much more expensive than those on the black market.

Just like the [Brain Silkworm] that Shi Shougong had bought before, it costs 3,800 yuan each on the black market, but 5,200 yuan in [Fenbaoyan]. Even if Zhang Fan can enjoy a 25% discount due to his identity as a demon-killing consultant, it still costs 3,900 yuan.

Of course, there are many more types of goods in Fenbaoyan. For example, there is a substitute for the [Big Brain Silkworm] here, called the [Small Brain Silkworm], which costs only twelve hundred yuan each.

In addition, there are many treasures in Fenbaoyan that are much cheaper than those on the black market.

For example, the [Lava Gold] necessary for refining magic swords only costs 128,000 per pound, which is 30% cheaper than the black market price.

The main reason is that Daomeng owns mines. From mining, to transportation, to refining, to finished products, the entire industrial chain is integrated, which greatly reduces costs.

Zhang Fan walked around for a while and had to say that he did have the identity of a demon-subduing consultant. If he bought some treasures at [Fenbaoyan], he could save a lot of money at a 25% discount.

In addition, Fenbaoyan also has a recycling business, and there are special people who come to inspect and price the talismans, magic tools, materials, and even fragments for recycling.

"Are all the fragments recovered?"

Zhang Fan's heart moved, and he couldn't help but think of the piece of metal fragment he and Fang Changle bought on the black market that day.

He took it out from his pocket and felt a warm feeling.

He only spent a little over a hundred dollars on this thing, and it looked like an old item, so he just played with it.

"I'll ask the people at Fenbao Rock to check it for me and find out what it is."

Zhang Fan casually put the fragments into his pocket, but he was doing the math in his mind.

Black Rat gave him 800,000 yuan, and he himself had a little over 120,000 yuan in savings. After deducting the 340,000 yuan he spent on buying the [Fire Sticker] and the [Hundred-Year Ginseng King] last time, he now had 580,000 yuan left in his card.

"Good steel should be used on the blade. I have to use it carefully." Zhang Fan seemed to be thinking about something.

The treasure he needs now is something that can strengthen his primordial spirit, preferably one that has an effect comparable to that of replenishing the primordial spirit of the tiger. In this way, he will have hope of comprehending the wonderful realm of the Bodhisattva.

"Let's take another look." Zhang Fan browsed casually.

Rumble…

At this moment, a dull thunder came from outside the window. Zhang Fan subconsciously looked up and looked at the sky.

"The world is going to change." Zhang Fan murmured softly, turning around and asking, "Sister Wen, when will Lao Yu come back?"

"Sister Wen...Sister Wen..."

……

Yujing City High-speed Railway South Station.

A high-speed train slowly pulled into the station and the door slowly opened.

At the door of carriage number seven, two men in Taoist robes walked out. One of them had a fair complexion, delicate features, and was holding an oil-paper umbrella in his hand. The other was tall and thin, with a faint red scar between his eyebrows.

"Brother, were those people just now plainclothes Taoist priests? Why is there such a scene?" The tall and thin Taoist priest tilted his head and asked.

"Yujing City has been in turmoil lately, so we shouldn't meddle in other people's business."

The white-faced Taoist priest spoke in a low voice, with a gleam of brilliance in his eyes.

"We can take this opportunity to capture that old fish monster and bring it back to Qingcheng Mountain!"
