Die Ling and the others were rather shocked when they heard Gu Zheng's words. They had witnessed the abilities of the Mud Spirit before, and they had also personally experienced how powerful its stomach was.
"By the way, master, how did you know there was someone in the mud spirit's stomach?"
Although she was shocked, Butterfly Spirit was also very curious.
In fact, Meow Meow and the angry man were also curious. During the period of time Gu Zheng spoke of, they didn't feel anyone attacking the mud spirit.
"The person trapped by the mud spirit used the five elements dao to attack the mud spirit. You guys didn't comprehend the five elements dao so your perception of dao isn't as sharp as mine." Gu Zheng said.
"Master, you're saying that the person trapped by the mud spirit has a complete grasp of the five elements dao and can fuse them to create an immortal art like master?"
Die Ling's eyes widened. They all knew how terrifying Gu Zheng's five elements dao was. For example, the damage to the mud spirit's body was mostly due to Gu Zheng's five elements immortal lotus' ability to burn.
"That's right." Gu Zheng nodded.
"Who could it be? It's clearly not one of Empress Wa's disciples. Other than master, only Le Xian's two disciples have complete mastery of the five elements. "Meow Meow said.
Seeing Gu Zheng's strange gaze, Die Ling asked again, "Master, do you know who it is?"
"I think I know who it is!" Gu Zheng said.
In the history of the primitive times, there was a powerful person who was already famous during the Investiture of the Gods period. Many people thought he was the number one person below the Saint Immortal Realm. He was the current Mahamayuri Bodhisattva, Kong Xuan.
It had to be said that Kong Xuan's reputation was really great. Even before Gu Zheng became an immortal cultivator, he had heard many legends about Kong Xuan. He was even more envious of Kong Xuan's innate ability, the 'Five-colored Divine Light'. Later on, as his experience grew, Gu Zheng also learned that the so-called "Five-colored Divine Light" was actually a kind of divine ability that belonged to a person who had completely mastered the Dao of the Five Elements. It belonged to a person who had reached a high level of control over the Dao of the Five Elements.
Having experienced the Investiture of the Gods and the first Chaos Tribulation, Kong Xuan's strength was definitely in the top five among the Demi-Saints that Gu Zheng knew.
"Bang …"
A loud noise came from afar, and the upper body of the Mud Spirit that had disappeared jumped out of the swamp.
"Roar …"
The Mud Spirit, whose upper body had leaped up and smashed down, let out a long scream. Because no one was stabilizing the space, the process of it smashing down this time was extremely terrifying, and the black hole was generated along with it.
Over the next few moments, the Mud Spirit repeatedly jumped out of the swamp and smashed down. Its screams became sharper and sharper, and more and more black holes appeared in the void. Even Meow Meow and the others could feel that there was a violent energy in its body that wanted to break out.
Finally, after the Mud Spirit jumped out of the swamp again, its scream shook the sky. A dazzling Five-colored Divine Light penetrated its body, and a figure flew out from it.
The figure that flew out of the Mud Spirit's body stopped in the air. After the Five-colored Divine Light on the surface of his body dissipated, everyone could see his appearance clearly.
His appearance was ordinary, but his eyes were long and thin. He exuded a dangerous aura that seemed to be impossible to suppress. This person was the Mahamayuri Bodhisattva of the Buddhist Sect, Kong Xuan.
"Peak Demi-Saint!"
The Artifact Spirit's dignified voice sounded in Gu Zheng's mind.
"Gu Zheng!"
Kong Xuan's eyes swept across Die Ling and the others, and then stopped on Gu Zheng. He frowned and called out his name.
"What's wrong?" Gu Zheng asked indifferently.
"I didn't expect to meet you in this situation."
Kong Xuan's voice paused, and then he asked, "Do you know why I came to the Poison Swamp?"
"It's hard to say if you didn't ask, but now that you've asked, I think I know."
Gu Zheng was speaking the truth. He knew that his grudge with the Buddhists would have to be resolved sooner or later.
Kong Xuan waved his hand, and a purple-gold alms bowl appeared in the air.
"Do you dare to come under the Heaven and Earth Alms Bowl with me?" Kong Xuan asked.
Gu Zheng wasn't unfamiliar with the Heaven and Earth Alms Bowl. It was a separate world inside, and it was a good place to fight and talk. There was no need to worry about affecting the outside world. Gu Zheng's first battle with Bodhisattva Wen Shi was under the Heaven and Earth Alms Bowl.
"There's a problem with your words. It's not about whether or not I dare to go, but whether or not my master wants to go …"
Die Ling already knew who this man was, so she didn't want Gu Zheng to go under the Heaven and Earth Alms Bowl. However, before Die Ling could finish her sentence, Gu Zheng extended his hand and interrupted her.
"You guys can wait for me outside." Gu Zheng smiled at Die Ling and the others.
Kong Xuan made a hand seal, and the Heaven and Earth Alms Bowl in the air enlarged. Gu Zheng followed him inside.
"You're quite confident in yourself. You actually dare to enter the Heaven and Earth Alms Bowl with me." Kong Xuan said.
"Of course I'm confident, but more importantly, I feel that you have something to say. I want to hear what you have to say." Gu Zheng said.
"A straightforward person doesn't resort to insinuations. Tathagata sent me here with the intention of killing you! He also sent someone to accompany me, but I have my own way of doing things. Although I am used by him, I don't need to listen to everything he says. Thus, after entering the Poison Swamp, I threw off the people who followed me. To me, after meeting you, your decision will affect my attitude! I'll let you enter the Heaven and Earth Alms Bowl with me. If you don't have the guts, then I'll do my best to kill you. If you have the guts to come with me, then we'll just have a contest! "Kong Xuan said.
Gu Zheng knew that although Kong Xuan was Mahamayuri Bodhisattva, he didn't do it willingly. Thus, it was understandable that he didn't have a good relationship with the Buddhists. However, it had been a long time since the legend appeared. It was so long that Gu Zheng didn't expect it to still not be able to erase the grudge in Kong Xuan's heart. The first thing he said was Tathagata's intention of sending him here!
However, Kong Xuan's tone gave Gu Zheng the feeling that he was glad that Gu Zheng had made the right choice. This made Gu Zheng a little uncomfortable.
"Actually, the one who should be glad is you. Because you made the right choice! Otherwise, why would the Buddhists target me time and time again? Do they really think I'm a pushover? " Gu Zheng sneered. "You told me about the Tathagata's intention. In fact, you have the intention of killing me with a borrowed knife! However, no matter what your motive is, since you've decided not to fight to the death with me, then it's fine for us to be relatively peaceful. "
Gu Zheng's words made Kong Xuan frown. "I kind of want to take back what I said before. I think you're crazy!"
"Whatever. You can take it back if you want!"
Gu Zheng looked straight into Kong Xuan's eyes and didn't back down at all.
For Gu Zheng, Kong Xuan had been famous for a long time. However, he wasn't afraid of Kong Xuan. He also wanted to fight with an opponent like Kong Xuan. However, he didn't have absolute confidence in defeating Kong Xuan. After all, everyone had their own secrets. If it wasn't for Kong Xuan's words that made him uncomfortable, he wouldn't want to fight to the death with Kong Xuan.
Similarly, Gu Zheng also felt that Kong Xuan didn't want to fight to the death with him. Kong Xuan was also afraid of him. Although he didn't reveal many things to the outside world, as a disciple of a Sage Immortal who had passed the Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation, these two points alone were enough to make all the Sage-to-be wary.
"Hahahaha …"
Kong Xuan, who was looking at Gu Zheng, laughed. "Take it back? How can I take back my words so easily? Besides, what good will it do me if I really kill you? Won't I become someone else's knife? You're a disciple of a Sage Immortal. Although the Sage Immortal can't pursue anything that happens in a place like the Poisonous Swamp, this isn't a definite situation! If I really kill you, the Sage Immortal might fail his tribulation. If he does something crazy, won't it be too late for me to regret it? "
Hearing Kong Xuan's words, Gu Zheng also laughed and didn't say anything more.
"Someone who can make Tathagata send me to deal with is indeed extraordinary! No matter what, you don't show any cowardice in front of me. This is something I admire very much! "Kong Xuan looked at Gu Zheng with a little more admiration in his eyes.
"Since a battle of magical powers between us is inevitable, how about we make a deal?" Gu Zheng asked.
"A deal?" Kong Xuan frowned.
"That's right! If one of us attacks and loses a chance to impart Dao to the other, how about it? "
Gu Zheng's suggestion made Kong Xuan laugh. He looked at Gu Zheng with interest. "Sure, but that depends on whether you have a Dao that interests me!"
When one's cultivation reached the level of Gu Zheng and Kong Xuan, if one wanted to win a chance to impart Dao to someone, then a small Dao naturally wouldn't be attractive, unless it was a great Dao. Kong Xuan himself had mastered the Dao of the Five Elements, so there weren't many Daos that could interest him.
"How about the Dao of Time?" Gu Zheng asked.
"The Dao of Time?"
Kong Xuan laughed and stretched out his hand to stroke the void. Ripples appeared in the air and time in a small area had a retrograde effect.
"What you have mastered is only the Elementary Dao of Time. What I am talking about is the Intermediate Dao of Time." Gu Zheng said.
"Interesting, you have mastered the Intermediate Dao of Time! Sure, what Dao of mine do you want? "Kong Xuan asked.
"I wonder if you have imparted your Dao of the Five Elements to others?"
The imparting Dao that Gu Zheng was talking about was the form of unilaterally reenacting the enlightenment scene to the receiver, just like how he had imparted Dao to Fairy Yunyin. And in this way of imparting Dao, everyone only had one chance to impart Dao to others! Moreover, regardless of whether the receiver had comprehended Dao through this method or not, there was no way for him to reenact the enlightenment scene in the form of imparting Dao to another person.
Kong Xuan was a person who had been famous for many years. Gu Zheng was really not sure if he had imparted his experience of comprehending the Dao of the Five Elements to others. He was just trying his luck by asking.
"Before the first Chaos Tribulation, I had taken in a disciple. Most of the Dao that I had comprehended had been imparted to him. Unfortunately, he died in the first Chaos Tribulation."
Kong Xuan paused and then said, "However, do you want my Colorless Divine Light?"
"Didn't you impart your Dao of the Five Elements to your disciple?" Gu Zheng's eyes lit up.
"I did impart my Dao of the Five Elements to my disciple. However, as the first peacock in the world, I have some abilities that are beyond common sense. I can impart my Natural Divine Light to others twice, so there is still one more chance! "Kong Xuan said.
"Sure."
Gu Zheng agreed without hesitation. Kong Xuan frowned again, "Have you thought it through?"
Kong Xuan originally thought that even if Gu Zheng agreed, he reckoned that he would have to make some bargaining. After all, Gu Zheng was at a disadvantage in this matter. He had used the intermediate Dao of Time as the wager. Although Kong Xuan's Colorless Divine Light was powerful, it was only one of the Dao of the Five Elements. Moreover, it was a Natural Divine Light that was extremely difficult for outsiders to comprehend!
"I've thought it through."
Gu Zheng naturally considered the pros and cons of this matter. Among the Dao that he knew of Kong Xuan, the only thing that he envied was Kong Xuan's Colorless Divine Light. Although the Colorless Divine Light was Kong Xuan's Natural Divine Light and it was extremely difficult for outsiders to comprehend it, he had the foundation of an intermediate Dao of the Five Elements after all. He would have a better chance than ordinary people.
"Alright then, swear it!" Kong Xuan said.
"I'd like to add something. Besides the Heart Demon Oath, the details of the battle between the two of us cannot be leaked to the outside world!" Gu Zheng said.
"Can't tell anyone? It seems that you have some amazing means that you don't want others to know. This makes me look forward to this fight even more! "
As soon as Kong Xuan's voice fell, he took the lead to swear a qualified poison oath.
After Gu Zheng also swore, he flicked a light ball that would dim after five breaths into the air. The fight between the two was about to begin.
"Whoosh, whoosh …"
In addition to holding a snow-white long saber in his hand, Kong Xuan also took out two fairy weapons in succession. One of them looked like a walnut carved out of black metal, and the other was a white flag with mysterious characters on it.
The long saber was a top-grade fairy weapon. The other two fairy weapons belonged to the outside world and were considered extraordinary top-grade fairy weapons. Moreover, because Kong Xuan had experienced the first Chaos Tribulation, these three fairy weapons had been blessed by heaven and earth. Their power was far from ordinary top-grade fairy weapons.
On the other hand, Gu Zheng only had one fairy weapon, Tang Mo, in his hand.
Most of Gu Zheng's fairy weapons had been digested by the first Mud Spirit. However, this was not the reason why Gu Zheng only used Tang Mo to fight against Kong Xuan. The real reason was that ordinary fairy weapons were useless against Kong Xuan. Kong Xuan could brush it away with a Five-colored Divine Light.
"Interesting." Kong Xuan looked at Tang Mo in Gu Zheng's hand and said.
"Yes, it's interesting." Gu Zheng smiled faintly.
Five breaths of time passed quickly. Kong Xuan took the lead. A white light flashed behind him, and he wanted to brush away Gu Zheng's Tang Mo.
Sensing that Kong Xuan's True Gold Dao wanted to brush away Tang Mo, Gu Zheng did not resist. However, Tang Mo did not move in his hand.
"Huh?"
Kong Xuan was surprised. It was not that he had never seen a fairy weapon that could not be brushed away by the Five-colored Divine Light. However, Tang Mo gave him a different feeling. It made him feel that this unknown fairy weapon seemed to have jumped out of the five elements. This feeling was very strange.
Gu Zheng raised his hand and slashed at Kong Xuan with his Mad Demon Frenzied Blade at full strength.
It seemed to be a slow slash, but it had endless pressure. It blocked all of Kong Xuan's escape routes, forcing him to face it directly.
A smile appeared on Kong Xuan's face. He did not care about the Mad Demon Frenzied Blade at all. His body shook, and the white light flashed behind him again. The powerful Mad Demon Frenzied Blade was immediately dissolved into nothingness.
"This blade is very extraordinary, but it seems to still be damaged. If it is completely repaired, its blade energy may also jump out of the five elements. At that time, my white light may not be useful against it. I am a little regretful that I made the promise to teach you the Dao. I should have taken your blade! "Kong Xuan said seriously.
"Impossible!" Gu Zheng shook his head.
Kong Xuan did not say anything else. He raised his hand and slashed at Gu Zheng.
"Roar …"
Kong Xuan slashed his saber at Gu Zheng. The saber Qi turned into a soaring dragon. Its body burned with dazzling five-colored flames as it surged towards Gu Zheng.
"Five Elements Transformation!"
Gu Zheng said in his heart. He was already clear about the order of the five elements in Kong Xuan's' Five Elements Transformation ', as well as the weight of the five elements.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
Gu Zheng used Tang Mo to quickly slash out five times. Five different colored blade energies met Kong Xuan's soaring dragon. Explosive sounds immediately appeared in the air, causing the space to tremble slightly. When the sound returned to normal, there were no more five blade energies in the air. Similarly, there was no longer a soaring dragon burning with five-colored flames.
"Not bad, you have indeed mastered the 'Five Elements Transformation'."
Kong Xuan nodded at Gu Zheng. "However, when I was in the monster's body, I felt the power of the five elements attack. It is not comparable to these five slashes. It seems that you have not used your full strength yet!"
"Of course, this is just a warm-up. Didn't you also not use your full strength?" Gu Zheng said.
"Then try taking another move!"
Kong Xuan roared. The five-colored divine light behind him turned into five dragons of different colors and flew towards Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng frowned. This time, Kong Xuan used the real high-level Five Elements Dao. The power of the five elements contained in these five dragons was very large. With the Five Elements Transformation that he had mastered, the only way to dissolve these five dragons was to use the 'Five Elements Immortal Lotus'. However, his' Five Elements Immortal Lotus' could only be used once a day. He had already used it against the Mud Spirit.
Although he did not have the 'Five Elements Immortal Lotus' to quickly transform the five dragons, Gu Zheng's control of the Five Elements Dao was also extraordinary. He flew straight towards Kong Xuan.
Kong Xuan still did not understand what Gu Zheng wanted to do, but what happened next shocked him so much that his eyes widened. He saw that the fire dragon that crashed into Gu Zheng first, as if it had crashed into a black hole. Its huge dragon body disappeared instantly, but Gu Zheng was not hurt at all! In the next moment, the same thing happened to the water dragon and the earth dragon. Kong Xuan finally woke up from his disbelief!
"You have mastered the 'Five Elements Absorption'. No wonder you could withstand the 'Immortal Destroying Thunder Tribulation'!"
Kong Xuan was really shocked. Although his control of the Five Elements Dao was higher than Gu Zheng's, some Divine Powers could not be mastered just because one had a high control of the Power of Tao. After all, the control of the Power of Tao was like the Immortal Power, and the Divine Powers supported by the Power of Tao were like the Immortal Skills. There was only one kind of Immortal Power, but the Immortal Skills could be ever-changing! Just like in the entire Untainted Land, there were six people who had mastered the complete high-level Five Elements Dao. However, Kong Xuan was the only one who had the special Divine Powers of the Five Elements Dao!
"The complete 'Five Elements Absorption'!"
Gu Zheng had absorbed all of Kong Xuan's five dragons, and Kong Xuan's shock increased again.
The Absorption of the Five Elements was a divine ability that Kong Xuan envied, and it was also a divine ability that all the Saint Immortals envied. Among the Ten Great Saint Immortals, none of them had completely mastered the Absorption of the Five Elements. This was also the reason why when Gu Zheng relied on the Absorption of the Five Elements to pass the Immortal Slaying Thunder Tribulation, Le Xian asked the Glutton Immortal what Gu Zheng's ranking was among the Demi-Saints, and the Glutton Immortal directly rated him as top five! The complete 'Five Elements Absorption' was really abnormal.
