The one who had attacked the monk was naturally Gu Zheng. Unfortunately, he had been too far away and had not been able to capture the monk.
"That monk got away. We're in big trouble now."
Huang Qi was the first to speak after the three of them had gathered.
"The monk said he was from Sangharama Temple," Yang Jue said.
"Sangharama Temple."
Gu Zheng muttered. He had never heard of Sangharama Temple before, but since the monk had specifically mentioned it, it must be a powerful temple in Sangharama County.
"Don't worry about him. Whether it's a blessing or a curse, we can't avoid it. We'll just have to deal with whatever comes our way," Gu Zheng said.
At the same time.
"Damn it, how dare they injure Lord Zeng. I won't let this go so easily!"
The flying monk turned his head to look in the direction of Gu Zheng and the others before cursing fiercely.
The monk's Buddhist name was Zhi Guang. Sangharama Temple was the largest temple in Sangharama County. Sangharama Temple's strength was definitely in the top fifteen of all the temples in Aparagodaniya.
Although Zhi Guang was an elder in Sangharama Temple, his cultivation was only at the middle Jin Xian realm. He was considered the weakest among the elders. He had come here to find some herbs, but he had not expected such a thing to happen.
Two hours later.
Zhi Guang landed in a town at the foot of Mount Sunset. He hurriedly entered the town and found an old monk giving a sermon under a towering tree.
"Zhi Guang, what happened?"
When he saw Zhi Guang's severed arm, the benevolent-looking old monk's eyes flashed with a hint of anger.
"Master!"
Zhi Guang called out pitifully, then told his master, Hui Ming, what had happened.
After listening to Zhi Guang's story, Hui Ming's brows furrowed tightly.
"Don't let anyone near? What was originally a valley has turned into a mountain. I'm afraid it's not because someone is breaking through, but because some treasure is about to appear. "
Hui Ming smiled coldly, then gritted his teeth. "Regardless, they dared to hurt you. It seems that we have to release them from purgatory!"
Hui Ming finished speaking and took out a medicinal pill and gave it to Zhi Guang.
Zhi Guang didn't ask any more questions. He swallowed the pill and sat cross-legged on the ground. Hui Ming placed a palm on his back to help him absorb the pill.
Huiming was a Grand Elder of Sangharama Temple. Due to his excessive desire to kill, his senior brother Huiqing would send him out to preach the Dao every once in a while. However, it was clear that preaching the Dao could not resolve some of the things in his nature.
As the golden light in Hui Ming's palm flickered, Zhi Guang's severed arm began to grow like a balloon. In just two minutes, a new arm had grown out.
"Let's go. Master will take you to expiate those demons!" Hui Ming sneered.
"Master, should we inform the temple?" Zhi Guang asked.
"Is there a need to inform the temple to get rid of those trash?"
Hui Ming smiled confidently, then frowned and said, "It's better to inform them. If there's some incredible treasure in that place, don't miss it just because there aren't enough people. After all, if it's guarded by a few Jin Xian cultivators, the treasure should be extraordinary!"
Hui Ming's caution made Zhi Guang nod hurriedly. He took out a Buddha statue and formed a seal with both hands. His lips trembled silently at the statue, and the statue glowed with golden light.
At the same time, one of the Buddha statues in Sangharama Temple spoke. It was Zhi Guang's voice. The monk in charge of guarding the statue immediately relayed Zhi Guang's words to the higher-ups of Sangharama Temple.
When Hui Ming brought Zhi Guang back to the treasure trove, there wasn't much time left before the treasure would appear. Even with the concealment of the Great Concealment Formation, they could still sense a special wave of energy at close range.
"Which one of you severed my disciple's arm?"
Hui Ming narrowed his eyes and scanned Gu Zheng's trio.
"Me!"
Gu Zheng didn't waste words. He used the Fire Dragon Method at the same time as he answered.
Before Hui Ming had brought Zhi Guang over, Gu Zheng had already seen them and made the appropriate analysis. A defeated opponent dared to come back again, and he even brought a person with him. If this person did not have the strength of a Golden Immortal, he would not dare to come back at all. Facing such an enemy, other than the word 'kill', there was no other solution.
"Insolence!"
Hui Ming roared in the face of the enormous fire dragon. The image of a Buddha appeared behind him and the energy of heaven and earth flowed under his control, suppressing Gu Zheng's trio.
In the face of Daluo Jinxian's suppression, even the fire dragon's flight slowed to a crawl. No ordinary immortal technique could break this stalemate.
"Slash!"
A black light flickered in Gu Zheng's hand. After using the 'Mad Demon Wild Blade', he instantly tore apart the pressure from Hui Ming. Eighty-one blade beams condensed into one and slashed towards Hui Ming with the power to split the heavens and earth.
At the same time, Gu Zheng tore apart the suppression, allowing the fire dragon to move. Huang Qi and Yang Jue also regained their mobility and summoned their immortal weapons at Hui Ming.
Hui Ming narrowed his eyes and pushed both his palms forward. Instantly, a golden swastika with a radius of 10 feet flew out from the swastika.
"Boom!"
Gu Zheng's saber light cleaved a hole in the golden swastika and flew towards Hui Ming without losing any momentum. However, the swastika was still powerful. Not only did it shatter Gu Zheng's fire dragon, but it also sent Huang Qi and Yang Jue's immortal weapons flying.
For the first time, Hui Ming seemed to be fighting one against three. However, he didn't have it easy. Gu Zheng's blade cut open a bloody wound on his body.
Although Hui Ming was shocked, the battle didn't stop. The two against three battle continued in the sky.
According to the plan, Huang Qi and Yang Jue would deal with Zhi Guang. As for the people he brought, Gu Zheng would deal with them.
With Gu Zheng's strength, as long as he activated the immortal realm, it would be easy to get rid of the Daluo Jinxian early stage Hui Ming. However, the immortal realm was his trump card. He wouldn't use it unless it was absolutely necessary. Even so, it wouldn't be too difficult for Gu Zheng to get rid of Hui Ming. After all, his Five Elements Immortal Technique was really abnormal.
At this moment, Hui Ming wasn't only facing Gu Zheng, but also a fire dragon and a water dragon that could fight on their own. Although Hui Ming was in a difficult situation, he was still a Daluo Jinxian early stage cultivator. He had many tricks up his sleeve.
The Buddha behind Hui Ming was also helping him fight. It wasn't chanting Sanskrit, but it was also emitting rays of Buddha light. It was indeed very difficult to deal with.
"Explode!"
Gu Zheng was also annoyed by the Buddha behind Hui Ming. He, who hadn't used the Mixed Elemental Wind Dragon Kick, suddenly kicked out two wind dragons at Hui Ming.
Hui Ming's eyes widened. The sudden attack caught him off guard. He turned his body and dodged the two wind dragons, but the shadow of the Buddha behind him was hit.
There was an explosion behind Hui Ming. The Buddha was shattered by the wind dragons. Hui Ming himself also suffered a backlash. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Slash!"
Gu Zheng didn't give Hui Ming a chance to catch his breath. He swung Tang Mo at Hui Ming's head at close range.
"Clang!"
The sound of metal clashing rang out. Hui Ming could only use the demon subduing pestle in his hand to parry.
Hui Ming's demon subduing pestle was a high grade Buddha weapon. It was hard to imagine how hard it was. However, since the start of the battle with Gu Zheng, this was the second time it had been struck by Tang Mo.
As a top grade immortal weapon, Tang Mo was incomparably sharp. It could destroy a high grade immortal weapon no more than three times. Now that it couldn't break Hui Ming's demon subduing pestle twice, it was enough to show how extraordinary it was.
"Slash!"
Almost immediately after the sound of metal clashing, Gu Zheng's roar rang out again.
The Demon Subduing Pestle broke. It was split into two by Tang Mo's third slash. Even Hui Ming, who was holding it with both hands, was split in half by Gu Zheng.
"Master!"
Zhi Guang, who was fighting with Huang Qi and Yang Jue, cried out in grief. He immediately stopped fighting and his body flashed with Buddha light. He wanted to escape again.
"You've escaped once and you still want to escape a second time?"
Gu Zheng shouted. This time was different. Last time, he was farther away from Zhi Guang. This time, he was so close. If Zhi Guang could still escape, it would be a joke.
Two wind dragons slammed into the escaping Zhi Guang. Zhi Guang screamed as he fell. The black saber light also cut him in half.
"Are you two Daoists alright?"
After dealing with Zhi Guang, Gu Zheng looked at Huang Qi and Yang Jue.
Zhi Guang wasn't a mediocre person. Even when Yang Jue and Huang Qi teamed up against him, they still suffered a bit.
"We're alright. It's just a small injury." Huang Qi smiled.
"I'm, I'm fine!"
Yang Jue forcefully blinked his eyes before returning to normal.
Although he heard about Gu Zheng's methods from Huang Qi, when he saw Gu Zheng easily kill a Daluo Jinxian, Yang Jue's heart was filled with shock.
"As long as you're fine."
Gu Zheng nodded at the two and flew out.
"Daoist Bai, where are you going?" Huang Qi asked.
"I'm going to meet the Daoist who was spying on us!" Gu Zheng transmitted his voice to the two.
During the battle just now, Gu Zheng had seen someone watching from afar. After he killed Hui Ming and Zhi Guang, that person did not go far away. Instead, he hid himself on the spot.
The black saber wind tore the air apart. In the void that originally seemed to be empty, a man who was hiding in a panic appeared under a flash of light.
"Daoist Bai, please don't attack!"
The man smiled apologetically at Gu Zheng. He was the purple-faced man.
"It's you!"
Huang Qi and Yang Jue, who followed Gu Zheng, exclaimed at the same time.
"He's the one who commissioned the auction of the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving?"
Gu Zheng frowned. He heard from Yang Jue and Huang Qi that the person who commissioned the auction of the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving was a man with a purple face.
"That's him!" Huang Qi said.
"You sent the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving to the auction and followed us here. You're not simple! Tell me, what do you know and what do you want to do? "
As Gu Zheng spoke, the Weapon Spirit had already probed the purple-faced man. This person's cultivation was at the early stage of Jin Xian. His body's chronic illness caused his face to have a special color. Moreover, his original cultivation was not limited to this. It was also due to his chronic illness that had declined.
"Fellow Daoists, listen to me …"
The purple-faced man didn't dare to say any nonsense. He immediately explained to everyone.
The purple-faced man's name was Fang Xing. Years ago, he obtained two Heavenly Cyan Jade Carvings from the treasure in Luxia Town. At the same time, he also obtained some other things. Among these things, there was also a jade slip.
The information recorded in the jade slip not only made Fang Xing understand that the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving was the key to finding the real treasure, but it also gave him a treasure map. With this map, as long as he entered the treasure, he would be able to safely obtain many treasures. However, the jade slip didn't contain the method to reveal the location of the treasure. This made Fang Xing very distressed.
Later, Fang Xing came to Luxia Town again and entrusted the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving to the Chen Family to auction on his behalf. In Fang Xing's opinion, he didn't know the method to open the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving, but perhaps someone else would.
When the first Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving was bought by the Chen Family before it was auctioned, Fang Xing also asked the Chen Family to find out who had the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving in the end. Although the Chen Family refused to answer this question, it made Fang Xing speculate that the person who bought the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving was not from the Chen Family. This person might really be able to open the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving!
In order to verify his conjecture, Fang Xing threw out the Heavenly Cyan Jade Carving that contained the location of the treasure. He also tampered with it a little to obtain the whereabouts of Gu Zheng and the others.
"My three friends, I've already told you the truth. I hope that we can cooperate regarding the treasure of the Sage-to-be. What do you think?" Fang Xing looked at the three of them and said.
"Since you have the treasure map, you naturally know the specifications of the treasure. You can wait for us to go in and make a fortune alone. But why did you tell us?" Gu Zheng said lightly.
"Because I was discovered by you!" Fang Xing said, not understanding the reason.
"Was it really me who discovered you? Or did you deliberately let me discover you? "Gu Zheng laughed coldly.
"Of course I was discovered by you! Do you think that I deliberately let you discover me? "
Faced with Fang Xing's bitter smile, Gu Zheng fell silent. He was not sure if Fang Xing had deliberately let him discover him. He was just a little suspicious! After all, from his point of view, there was no reason for him to be so careless.
"If what you said is true, do you dare let me search your soul?" Yang Jue said coldly.
"Search my soul?"
Fang Xing looked at Yang Jue and laughed. "My friend, are you joking with me? No matter what, I'm still a Jin Xian! Every one of us has his or her own secrets. Why do you want to search my Soul Search? Do you not believe what I said? Or do you want to search the treasure map and then kill me? If you don't believe me, then I can only say that I'm no match for you. You can just kill me. As for what you want to know by searching my soul, I can tell you that I have a way to make your hopes dashed. When the time comes, you won't get any benefits! "
Yang Jue and Huang Qi frowned. Their gazes fell on Gu Zheng, clearly waiting for him to make a decision.
"If you don't have my treasure map, not only will you waste time in the treasure trove, it will also be very dangerous!"
After Fang Xing said this, he saw that Gu Zheng still hadn't said anything. Thus, he pointed into the distance and said, "The fluctuations of the treasure are becoming more and more intense. People have already been drawn over. Fellow Daoist doesn't have much time to think."
Huang Qi and Yang Jue turned to see two people standing in the sky above the valley.
"We can cooperate. As for the distribution of the treasure, the four of us can split it equally."
Gu Zheng's voice paused and his expression turned serious. "But you'd best put away any tricks. If I find out that you're plotting something behind my back, I'll make sure you die a horrible death!"
"Since we're cooperating, we'll be honest. You can rest assured of that!" Fang Xing patted his chest.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, how should we deal with those two?"
Since they had already reached an agreement, Yang Jue immediately asked Gu Zheng.
"We're also unlucky. First there were monks from Sangharama Temple nearby, then these two! But they're also unlucky. Since they had to rush to this place of death, we'll send them on their way! "
Gu Zheng took the lead and flew towards the two people in the distance. It was just as he said, they were rather unlucky. Just like these two people now, if they hadn't been flying in the sky above the original valley when they were rushing over, even if the fluctuations of the treasure were rather strong, they wouldn't have been able to sense it now.
The two people on top of the valley were more alert. When they saw Gu Zheng and the others flying towards them, they immediately retreated far away, not giving them a chance to get close. When they saw Gu Zheng and the others stop, they also stopped far away, making it impossible for people to touch them.
As time passed, the fluctuations of the treasure grew stronger and stronger. The small mountain in the Great Concealment Formation began to tremble.
"Let's get out of here first. The Great Concealment Formation will shatter soon and the resulting fluctuations will destroy everything nearby!"
After inspecting the Great Concealment Formation, Yang Jue solemnly looked at Gu Zheng and the others.
They didn't hesitate and immediately retreated to a safe distance. The two in the distance were quite alert. When they saw Gu Zheng's group retreat, they also retreated a good distance.
"These two damned loaches are quite clever. I wonder if you'll still be as clever later!" Yang Jue smiled at the two in the distance.
In about a third of an incense stick's time, the trembling mountain collapsed and the entire Great Concealment Formation shattered.
The fluctuations of the treasure not only destroyed the Great Concealment Formation, but also flattened several nearby mountains. The blinding light it produced illuminated the dark night. It could be seen from hundreds of miles away. If Gu Zheng's group hadn't closed their eyes, the light would have been enough to temporarily blind Daluo Jinxian!
"Ah … my eyes, my eyes!"
"Treasure, this is the birth of an incredible treasure!"
The two people in the distance were not as alert as before. The strong light from the treasure had caused them to fall into a trap. This was originally a good opportunity to kill them, but since the treasure had already appeared, their life and death were no longer important.
Ignoring the two people who were still screaming, Gu Zheng and the others landed outside the original valley. They saw that the newly born treasure was like a three-story palace. It looked dazzling in gold and jade, and was extremely huge. It had already filled up the original valley.
