Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

"Do you recognize it?"

Qi Xiu's expression froze. The Hunyuan Wanfa Lantern was a magical treasure of merit that he had condensed by chance back then.

When it was born, it attracted the attention of thousands of fierce eyes.

In fact, if Shui Bo had not been by his side at that time, this magic weapon would probably not have been able to be refined.

"I don't recognize it."

Withdrawing his gaze, the spirit of the Feixian Pot denied it without any hesitation.

"you……"

"Don't ask me, whether you save me or not, I will always say the same thing.

I don’t recognize it.”

Compared with the struggle just now, the spirit of the Feixian Pot was obviously much more serious about this matter. He directly stated his attitude without any room for negotiation.

After silently staring at the Feixian Pot spirit for a while and confirming that this great Dao artifact had no intention of giving up, Qi Xiu lowered his eyes:

"Since you say you don't recognize me, then you don't recognize me."

Qi Xiu raised the magical treasure of Hunyuan Wanfa Mingdeng, and his mind moved slightly. He saw a bunch of burning golden lotuses suddenly rising in the golden light of merit that was hanging down and shining all around.

The Golden Lotus Fire of Merit!

Summoning ninety-nine golden lotus fires of merit, Qi Xiu waved his sleeves, and sparks suddenly fell towards the spirit of the Feixian Pot. To be more precise, they fell towards the poisonous sores on his body.

laugh--

"Well!"

The moment the Golden Lotus Fire of Merit touched the poisonous sore of Heaven, wisps of colorful smoke slowly flew out, and the spirit of the Feixian Pot could not help but groan in pain.

"Don't just stand there and watch, kid. These poisonous mists contain the power of Heaven's backlash. Use this medicine bag to collect them. Even the Yuanshen Zhenzun dare not touch such a Heaven's poison.

Whether it is used for self-defense or to refine poison pills in the future, it will be extremely useful."

As if feeling that his refusal to ask Qi Xiu about the Hunyuan Wanfa Lantern was a bit cold and hard, Feixianhu took the initiative to speak and spit out from his mouth an exquisite medicine bag that seemed to be woven from countless rainbow silk threads and emitted a glowing light.

"it is good."

Faced with the Feixian Pot's spirit's active show of goodwill, Qi Xiu did not act pretentiously.

The secret of the Hunyuan Wanfa Lamp must involve some unspeakable existence. The Feixian Pot spirit's tough refusal may have its reasons. He is not so petty.

After taking the medicine bag, Qi Xiu unsealed it. Suddenly, a terrifying and powerful suction force surged out from it. The force was so great that it caused Qi Xiu's robe to roll and even caused ripples in the surrounding red lotus fire.

What a great force...

Surprised at the suction power of the rainbow medicine bag in his hand, Qi Xiu steadied his body and aimed the mouth of the medicine bag at the Heavenly Dao poisonous fog forced out by the Merit Golden Lotus Fire.

"Be careful and don't get contaminated by the poisonous mist, otherwise your body will be destroyed in an instant." The spirit of the Feixian Pot reminded.

"understood."

After responding, Qi Xiu's body swayed for a while, and his real body slowly retreated. An incarnation took his place holding a rainbow medicine bag.

"The Great Sage's One Transformation, Three Thousand Dharmas?"

Upon seeing Qi Xiu performing his incarnation, the spirit of the Feixian Pot raised its eyebrows and murmured something in astonishment.

This kid has a body full of mixed essence and possesses merits. Now he has even learned the great sage's methods. Could it be that he is the...

If this is true, then I have stumbled upon a great opportunity.

However, although following this lineage may lead to great success, it is also possible to fail.

In an instant, the spirit of the Feixian Pot was in turmoil, but it became firm again in a moment.

When that incident with Li Xiaoyou happened, I backed off.

If I retreat again this time, I might as well seal myself in eternal sleep and never wake up again.

Well, I’ve lived for so long, it’s time for me to learn from them and give it a try.

Having made up his mind, the spirit of the Feixian Pot looked at Qi Xiu with a different look in its eyes.

However, all this happened in a very secretive manner, and Qi Xiu did not notice it. His attention at the moment was all on the poisonous fog that was drifting out from the sky.

What a fierce poisonous fog! Even from such a distance, my body and soul were trembling slightly, as if I felt a great threat.

Even I am like this, which is enough to show how terrifying the power of this poisonous fog is.

Looking at the Heavenly Dao poisonous fog that was gradually being absorbed into the rainbow medicine bag, Qi Xiu was secretly shocked.

Despite such a fierce backlash from the Heavenly Dao, the spirit of the Feixian Pot endured for an entire era. It is truly worthy of being a great Dao artifact and a soul-level existence.

As the golden lotus fires of merit sank into the body of the Feixian Pot spirit, the poisonous sores on his body became fewer and fewer, and his aura and demeanor became richer and stronger.

As the largest poisonous sore on the back was eliminated by the three golden lotus fires of merit, the backlash of the Heavenly Dao on the Feixian Pot spirit was completely wiped out.

This great artifact finally escaped the pain of an era and regained control of itself.

He sucked the last trace of the Heavenly Dao poisonous fog into the medicine bag, and the incarnation outside his body quickly sealed the mouth of the medicine bag tightly, fearing that even a little bit of the Heavenly Dao poisonous fog inside would leak out.

"I am finally alive again."

Without the torture of the backlash from the heavens, the appearance of the spirit of the Feixian Pot returned to normal. From its miserable, skinny and shriveled appearance just now, it turned into a tall, white-bearded old man with a gentle and kind face.

"Congratulations, old man."

Walking forward, Qi Xiu first greeted the spirit of the Feixian Pot, and then handed over the rainbow medicine bag containing the Heavenly Dao Backlash.

"There's no point in taking back something you've given away. Just keep this medicine bag. You're a smart, daring kid. You never know when you might run into an unbeatable opponent. The Heavenly Dao poison mist in this medicine bag might be able to save you."

With a wave of his hand, the spirit of the Feixian Pot generously gave the rainbow medicine bag and the Heavenly Poison Mist inside to Qi Xiu.

"Sir, you are so generous. I would be disrespectful to refuse."

"Come on, baby, you don't seem like a polite person."

Without the torture of the backlash from the heavens, the spirit of the Feixian Pot's tone became much lighter and it began to joke with Qi Xiu.

"Sir, where did you get this from..."

"We are already so familiar with each other, so please don't bother to talk about seniority. When I was walking in the secular world, I had a name, Xu Zhitian.

From now on...just call me Lao Xu."

Telling Qi Xiu his worldly name also meant that the spirit of the Feixian Pot, Xu Zhitian, truly recognized Qi Xiu.

"Then... Lao Xu?"

Seeing that the spirit of the Feixian Pot said so, Qi Xiu stopped being shy and tried to call out with a smile.

"Hey, that sounds much more comfortable.

Okay, I've stayed in this crappy place for a thousand years, and listening to the demon lotus above my head grinding its teeth every day, it's really annoying me.

Let's go. I haven't been back to Tianyuan Realm for a long time. How is it there now?"

Xu Zhitian had been eroded by the backlash of the Heavenly Dao for an era. Now, as soon as he recovered, he showed extraordinary strength. With a wave of his long sleeves, the red lotus karma fire that had not yet completely dissipated around him was dispersed in an instant, and the entire core Ksitigarbha became dim in an instant.

"The current Tianyuan world may be quite different from what you remember..."

After extinguishing the red lotus fire, the old man and the young man each rode on a beam of light and flew towards the ground. Along the way, Qi Xiu also told Xu Zhitian the general structure of the current Tianyuan world.

When they returned to the ground again, Taiyin, Taiyang, Qi Sanhua and Hunyuan Sword Spirit were all guarding the entrance to the core Ksitigarbha.

Seeing Qi Xiu return safely, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when they saw that Qi Xiu was accompanied by a tall, kind-looking old man, the four of them shifted their gazes away.

Hiss, this old man is not a good person...

When looking at Xu Zhitian of Feixian Pot, Taiyin, Taiyang and Hunyuan Sword Spirit did not have any special feeling. They just felt that the old man had an immeasurable and powerful aura, and exuded a Taoist spirit that nurtured all living things.

Only Qi Sanhua's expression suddenly turned ugly.

As a magical tool of medicine, countless magical herbs, elixirs, and precious trees were collected by Xu Zhitian in the pot and refined into pills.

Qi Sanhua, whose original form is the Three-Flower Spirit Treasure Ginseng Fruit, naturally has a natural fear of Xu Zhitian.

"My dear Qi, you are so lucky that you even raised a three-flowered ginseng fruit.

This medicine was very rare even in the ancient times. It is naturally proficient in earth escape techniques. Although its strength is average, it is slippery and difficult to catch.

However, this medicine is very powerful and can be used as the main ingredient in many great pills."

Xu Zhitian also recognized Qi Sanhua's true form at a glance. His smiling words frightened Qi Sanhua so much that his face turned green and he quickly hid behind Taoist Taiyang.

"Godfather, where did this old man come from? He doesn't look like a good person."

Qi Sanhua stuck out half of his head and complained to Qi Xiu with a grin.

"Godfather?"

Turning his head and looking at Qi Xiu suspiciously, Xu Zhitian's eyes revealed a strange and complicated look.

“This kid is so persistent that I can’t do anything about it, but he is very talented and has already touched the threshold of the great calamity of the magic medicine.

Once you survive this catastrophe, you will have the opportunity to achieve great things in the future."

With a helpless smile, Qi Xiu explained.

"I see. I thought you had some special hobby. Come here, little ginseng fruit."

With a chuckle, Xu Zhitian waved at Qi Sanhua who was hiding behind Taoist Sun.

"What are you doing? This is my uncle. Talk to him if you have anything to say."

Pulling at the sleeve of Taoist Sun, Qi Sanhua was filled with fear, fearing that Xu Zhitian was going to capture him and use him to make medicine.

“Although you are gifted with spirituality and are full of it, it is obvious that you were born prematurely and your foundation is incomplete. It cannot be seen now, but when you overcome the great tribulation of the divine medicine, it will definitely cause you fatal harm at the critical moment.

I have a volume of "The Book of Grass Returning to Its Origin" in my hand, which is a fragment left by a ginseng fruit in the Yuanshen realm.

Although I cannot guarantee that you will survive the catastrophe of the miraculous medicine, it should not be a problem for me to eliminate your fundamental defects."

Xu Zhitian's words made Qi Sanhua look skeptical. His foundation did have some flaws, but they were so minor that they could almost be ignored.

But this old man could see it at a glance and said that this defect would become a big taboo for him to overcome the tribulation.

"Xiao Sanhua, Mr. Xu is not a bad person. Come and listen to the sutra. It will be of great benefit to you."

Seeing that Qi Sanhua was still hesitant and didn't dare to step forward, Qi Xiu had no choice but to persuade her.

"All right……"

With godfather Qi Xiu as a guarantor, Qi Sanhua had to put aside her fear and walked to Xu Zhitian step by step.

"Not bad, really not bad, the quality of the essence is top-notch, naturally good material."

After taking a close look at Qi Sanhua, Xu Zhitian's words almost frightened the little ginseng fruit so much that his souls and spirits ran away in all directions.

"Okay, Lao Xu, stop scaring him."

"Haha, I've been depressed for so many years, and finally I met an interesting little guy, so I just want to have some fun with him.

Okay, little guy, this scroll is for you."

Laughing loudly a few times and stroking his long beard, Xu Zhitian flicked his finger and a point of pure green and yellow light with magical flow was illuminated between Qi Sanhua's eyebrows.

After receiving the "Herb Return to its Origin Sutra" from Xu Zhitian, Qi Sanhua's originally slightly resistant expression was gradually replaced by surprise.

The contents of "Cao Huan Ben Jing" were almost tailor-made for him. By practicing according to this sutra, his chances of surviving the catastrophe of the divine medicine could be increased to at least 70%.

"Thank you sir, thank you sir."

After receiving such a gift, Qi Sanhua threw away all his fear, bowed repeatedly to Xu Zhitian, and happily ran to the side to comprehend the true scriptures.

"In the ancient times, I also raised many magical herbs and precious medicines with extraordinary spirituality. I was very happy to have them at my knees.

Unfortunately, I suffered a backlash from the heavens and sealed myself off to save my life. I don’t know what happened to those kids in the end.”

Looking at Qi Sanhua, who was white, plump and cute and wearing a wide Taoist robe, Xu Zhitian seemed to remember the magical herbs and elixirs he had under his command in the past, and his eyes became a little dazed.

"This world was sealed by a thief using the Human Emperor's Imperial Decree. If we want to leave, I'm afraid we have to wait for the effect of the Imperial Decree to dissipate."

All major events have been settled, and Qi Xiuben wants to return to the Tianyuan world as soon as possible.

But before that, in order to die with him, Zhao Siji used a five-colored cloud-patterned dragon-shaped imperial edict left over from the Holy Tang Empire to seal up the Blood Lotus World.

"The Emperor's Imperial Edict? What a grand gesture."

After hearing what Qi Xiu said, Xu Zhitian also noticed a majestic golden light looming above the sky, faintly enveloping the entire Blood Lotus World.

That was exactly what the Emperor of Man had commanded.

As long as this layer of golden light does not dissipate, even the true soul will not be able to leave.

"Forget it, a hundred years is not too long, just wait for it to dissipate.

Friend Qi, you said before that you also know a little about alchemy.

I have so much free time now, how about we play a few games together?"

Seeing that he couldn't leave the Blood Lotus World for a while, Xu Zhitian, who had been holding it in for a while, smiled and practiced Taoism with Qi.

"How can my half-baked skills not be better than yours?"

Qi Xiu smiled and waved his hands. Wouldn't it be humiliating to compete in medicine refining with a magical medicine artifact?

"I'm scared, he's scared."

With a curl of his lips, Xu Zhitian pointed at Qi Xiu and the other three people, Sun and Moon, and sneered at them.

Seeing Xu Zhitian like this, Qi Xiu knew that if he didn't accompany the old man to have fun, he would not let it go.

"Okay, then today I will show off my skills in front of you, Old Xu."

Just when Qi Xiu was about to take out the ingredients from the alchemy furnace to accompany Xu Zhitian to satisfy his craving, the [Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Control Treasure Order] in the golden jade bead suddenly burst out with divine light, flew out on its own, and hung in the void.

A strange man's voice came out intermittently from inside:

"The headmaster... the headmaster... is missing... I heard the sound... hurry... hurry back!"
