Chapter 331 Swallowing Dragon and Eating Qi

"The theory of nine similarities?" Chi Yang was puzzled.

Anquti explained: "I saw it in a Confucian classic. When it comes to the description of a true dragon, it has antlers like a deer, a head like a camel, eyes like a rabbit, a neck like a snake, a belly like a mirage, and scales like a mirage." The fish has claws like an eagle, palms like a tiger, and ears like an ox.”

Chiyang looked strange: "According to what you said, isn't a true dragon a combination of various birds and beasts?"

Anquti thought about it carefully: "Actually, that's the case... When I traveled in the West, I saw similar creatures. They have snake bodies, bat wings, fish scales and snake necks. They may have two or four legs. Most of them live in high mountains. But there are also a very small number who are captured and raised by secular powerful people.”

"That kind of thing can be considered a dragon?" Chiyang said angrily: "I'm afraid it's like the bald donkey in Tianzhu who thinks the big snake is a real dragon."

"It shouldn't count. I have seen the bones of these creatures. They may have been infected by some external force and changed their shapes." Ancuti said metaphorically: "It's probably like the corpse vultures killed by the Venerable. , is also a kind of monster, but it has already formed a race and can be reproduced from generation to generation without the need for psychic enlightenment."

"Infected?" Cheng Sanwu showed a subtle expression. He remembered that during the battle at Hengshan, Master Wen was assassinated by Lord Xuanzhan. The sharp blade he used was made of a special material that he had never seen before. It could kill Cutting down the foundation of Yuan Gong will disturb the sea of ​​consciousness.

Cheng Sanwu is very familiar with this kind of effect that disturbs the form and spirit. This is a power that only the ancient evil possesses. It is like the beginning of all living things, the original foundation of all spiritual wisdom and consciousness, so it can easily change the form, spirit and soul of living things in the world, and even create unprecedented living species.

It's just like Taotie can easily transform mortals into their kin.

"Real dragons have nothing to do with any kind of living beings." Chiyang pointed to the vast Tianchi that was made of solid ice: "If you don't believe me, dig deep into the ground and see if you can find the bones of that black dragon?"

Cheng Sanwu said: "After the death of a real dragon, it turns into water when it meets water, turns into wind when it meets the wind, and falls into the mountains and turns into a gold and jade spiritual spring. There will be no remains of corpses."

"Of course!" Chiyang leaned on the ground with a knife: "To become a true dragon, you have to transcend the living beings. If you insist on telling me, the mountains and rivers on the earth are more like true dragons. When I was practicing in Pengze, Just because it is the intersection of famous mountains and rivers, the so-called "Ins and Outs" is that kind of place.

"It's just that later on, as the population increased, logging was cleared, and swamps were drained, the water area in Pengze gradually became smaller. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I started to stir up trouble."

"Hearing what you said, you seem to be aggrieved?" Cheng Sanwu asked with a smile.

"Isn't it?" Chiyang was angry, and the red hair on his head also fluttered: "I am not a human being, why should I follow the so-called general trend of humane prosperity? Those mortals invaded Pengze, drained water and cultivated fields, which greatly It blocks the waterway and prevents me from sensing the energy of the mountains and rivers. I can only cause the wind and waves to break away the blockage. Is this wrong?"

"There is no right or wrong, but there is a difference between pros and cons." The sky was getting dark, Cheng Sanwu looked up at the night sky, and gently flicked his hand, which actually directly moved the clouds in the sky away, revealing the clear starry sky.

"It is understandable that mortals stand in the world and take advantage of all things in the world in order to reproduce and reproduce. But you have had hundreds of years of opportunity to create heaven and earth, and you can become a dragon in order to achieve transcendence. Naturally, you cannot blame them. They are just in conflict with each other. If there is a break, I'm afraid It’s a life-or-death situation.”

After hearing these words, Chiyang curled his lips and did not refute.

"Actually, Mr. Hong Ya's approach should be to save you." Cheng Sanwu said: "He can subdue you and even turn you into a horse body, which shows that it is not impossible to kill you. The simplest The solution is to throw you into the Taiyi Dragon Pond, do you think you can withstand it?"

"Stop talking about these nonsense!" Chiyang waved his sword angrily, and the huge sword light whizzed past, leaving a crack more than ten feet long on the Tianchi ice surface: "Don't forget, the ban on Kowloon still restricts us dragons. Otherwise, this place wouldn’t have become the tomb of a black dragon!”

"Grave?" An Qu asked.

"What? Do you have a different opinion?" Cheng Sanwu turned around.

An Quti looked at Tianchi: "I think that the black dragon is not dead at all, he is just sleeping. It's probably like some cultivators who stop breathing when they enter concentration, like a dead person, but instead have real energy. It circulates around the body, nourishing the spirit and guarding the soul.”

Cheng Sanwu nodded slightly: "You have such insight, you are really smart. The ancient dragon clan used its own body to protect the mountains and rivers of Jiuzhou, and the creatures of later generations cultivated to become dragons. They sensed the creation of the heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, and understood the mysteries of the evolution of creatures. In fact, they are equivalent to being descendants of the dragon clan. , will naturally be subject to the ban on Kowloon."

An Quti said: "The villain previously set up a barrier here to cover the Western Region to prevent others from connecting with the heaven and earth. This is also an imitation of the Kowloon ban."

"It seems that you really learned a lot while traveling in the Central Plains." Cheng Sanwu said.

"I dare not take it!" An Quti said quickly: "The villain was bent on seeking the magic of immortality, so he searched for immortals and Taoists in famous mountains and rivers in various places. Finally, he found a cave in Shu and planned to go inside to explore. As a result... Venerable I also know it.”

"If it were you and you wanted to break the ban on Kowloon, what would you do?" Cheng Sanwu asked.

"To be honest, it's difficult." An Quti shook his head: "I don't know much about the ancient things in the Central Plains, but the Kowloon ban has evolved over thousands of years. I'm afraid it's no longer an ordinary barrier, but like a brand imprinted on There is a natural law between heaven, earth, mountains and rivers that cannot be reversed by human power alone.

"When the villain traveled to the Central Plains, many of the spells were ineffective, even to the point where they could not be cast. It can be seen that the ban on Kowloon not only prohibited the true dragon from ascending, but also restricted all kinds of external things, making the atmosphere of Kyushu in the Central Plains unique. grid."

"Isn't that true?" Chiyang didn't seem to believe it: "From ancient times to the present, there have been many barbarians and sects who came to the Central Plains, and the ban on Kowloon cannot be suppressed."

"You still don't understand." Cheng Sanwu explained: "The ban on Kowloon is more like a big net, filtering out all things, not just blocking them. When foreign things come to the land of Kyushu in the Central Plains, they must also adapt to the weather of the Central Plains. ."

"In this way, the ban on Kowloon can be said to be a barrier against external evil..." An Quti suddenly stopped speaking mid-sentence.

"What do you want to say?" Cheng Sanwu said, "Just ask."

An Quti said cautiously and respectfully: "Young man, do you think that if the ban on Kowloon is broken, will the Central Plains lose their protection?"

"You, a person from the far west, would also care about the safety of the nine states in the Central Plains?" Cheng Sanwu asked.

An Quti said: "The villain saw countless killings in the west, and felt that the Central Plains was peaceful, peaceful and civilized. If there was no ban on Kowloon, I'm afraid..."

"Peace and happiness?" Cheng Sanwu laughed loudly: "You really hit a good time before, but you don't know that when it comes to killing and war, the Central Plains Kyushu is probably the best in the world!"

"It's the villain who is short-sighted." An Quti replied quickly.

Cheng Sanwu said: "The closure of Kowloon was originally to stabilize the ancient mountains and rivers. As for the killing and replacement of humanity in the world, it was the work of the world. The prehistoric times are far away, and there is no need for the closure of Kowloon to continue to exist. In the future, we will support humanity. In this world, there is only the world itself.”

An Quti nodded silently, and after thinking for a while, he said: "If it is a villain who wants to break the ban on Kowloon, I am afraid that he can only start with the dragon energy. It is like introducing another river into the surging river to divert it. Disruption, and eventually breaking through the embankment. However, this move may cause the earth's veins in Kyushu to shake, and when the spell is cast, it is expected to cause disasters. And there is absolutely no way a villain can do such a thing. "

"I don't expect you to do it either." Cheng Sanwu looked at the ice surface of Tianchi: "To accomplish this, we need a complete True Dragon Qi from beginning to end."

Chi Yang understood now: "Are you going to take this black dragon completely for your own use?"

"What do you think? You don't agree?" Chiyang snorted coldly: "I have nothing to agree with or object to. It's just that it's not as good as the Imperial Dragon Qi. You're going to swallow the whole black dragon in your belly."

"Are you questioning Taotie's ability?" Cheng Sanwu laughed loudly: "Not to mention a mere black dragon, even if dragons from all over the world come together, I can still swallow it in one gulp!"

Chiyang didn't say much, crossed his arms and sulked. Cheng Sanwu saw her like this, so he suggested: "Do you hope to use this Tianshan dragon energy to practice and restore the original body of the dragon? I advise you not to think about this matter."

"Why not?" Chiyang asked, his voice like thunder, echoing through the mountains and causing snow to fly all around.

Cheng Sanwu waved his hand, brushed away the flying snow, and said with a smile: "My views on what a dragon is are slightly different from yours."

When he said this, Cheng Sanwu raised his finger to the sky, and the two of them looked up in the direction of his finger. There was a ray of light moving among the stars in the night sky, and a rough dragon shape was outlined along the stars.

When An Quti saw this situation, he was extremely shocked. He saw the dragon-shaped star lowering its light, like a dragon seal descending from the sky, turning into a large flowing rainbow, green and green, winding and swaying, as if there was really a blue dragon soaring over the Tianshan Mountains. .

Cheng Sanwu swiped his fingers, and the clouds in the sky gathered, gradually covering the starry sky and the rainbow, making the surrounding earth pitch black.

There was only a roar, and I was shocked to see thunder and lightning flashing and leaping among the clouds. Lightning fell from the sky and struck the top of the mountain. The short light illuminated the mausoleum valley, and it was like seeing a real dragon descending into the world.

"Dragon is a person who changes without reason, up and down without time, brightness and uncertainty, and wonder and wonder." Cheng Sanwu said in a calm tone, with a voice like thunder: "When it rises, it soars in the universe, and when it is hidden, it lurks within the waves, changing with time. When the opportunity arises, it contains the essence of heaven and resembles the splendor of earth.”

After saying these words, a powerful thunderbolt fell and shattered the ice of Tianchi, causing the mountains to shake, making people mistakenly think that the black dragon under the ground was waking up and turning over.

"Do you understand?" Cheng Sanwu looked at Chiyang.

Chiyang looked up at the sky blankly. He was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses and said in a deep voice: "I understand."

"Just understand." After saying this, Cheng Sanwu stepped onto the Tianchi ice. The huge gap opened by thunder could faintly hear the roar of dragons.

Cheng Sanwu opened his arms and unleashed the world-devouring power. The black dragon, which had become one with the Tianshan Mountains, was gradually swallowed up. Waves of light from scales and claws appeared around Cheng Sanwu.

……

A Fu and Qin Wangshu climbed up the steep mountain. Earthquakes came from time to time, causing several avalanches or large rocks rolling down. Fortunately, the two were dexterous and could avoid them calmly.

"Is this the first earthquake today?" Afu asked with a smile.

"The sixth time." Qin Wangshu answered accurately.

Afu shook her head helplessly: "This Cheng Sanwu always causes such things."

After leaving Hongsha Town, the two of them galloped all the way to Tianshan Mountain. Before they reached the foot of the mountain, they could see the unpredictable clouds and flowing rainbows between the peaks from a distance, which attracted nearby herdsmen to think that gods were descending to earth and kneel down to worship.

Afu knew Cheng Sanwu very well and knew his traces in Hongsha Town. She immediately guessed that he would come for Tianchi Dragon Qi, and it turned out to be true.

The two of them climbed over the mountains and saw that the vast Tianchi was frozen in ice, but there was a huge crooked and bifurcated crack stretching across the ice. If they looked closely, it looked like a black dragon lying on it.

As he rushed towards Tianchi, he saw two figures blocking his way. One of them was Chi Yang, and the other was a thin Hu man whom he didn't recognize.

"Tsk, why are you here?" Chiyang carried the dragon tooth sword and motioned to the ice of Tianchi: "Cheng Sanwu is absorbing dragon energy, don't disturb him."

Afu looked at Cheng Sanwu in the sky in Tianchi and smiled faintly. Then she looked at the thin Hu man and saw that he had an extraordinary aura around him. There were several obelisk pillars not far behind him, and he recognized the origin of this object at a glance.

"Who are you?" Afu asked.

The thin foreigner bowed and said, "I've seen you for a long time, little An Quti."

"It's you?!" Afu looked shocked.

Anquti replied: "The villain was lucky enough to have his soul transferred by the Venerable and regain his new life."

Afu recalled the fight that year. An Quti's physical body was cut off, and his spirit rushed towards Cheng Sanwu, intending to seize his body, but in the end he could not shake Cheng Sanwu. Now that I think about it, An Quti's soul must have been secretly protected by Cheng Sanwu.

"You're lucky." Afu didn't rush to take action. Anyway, she had no grudge against An Quti.

"I was rude and offended, please forgive me." An Quti apologized quickly.

Afu nodded slightly in recognition, but couldn't help but sigh. Such a powerful person now behaves as humbly as a slave, which shows that he has experienced a painful lesson.

The four of them waited quietly on the shore of Tianchi for more than an hour. The earthquake in the mountain experienced two more rounds. It was not until the clouds in the sky gradually dispersed and beams of sunlight shone that Cheng Sanwu landed.

Lifting their feet and taking steps, the sound of dragon roars echoed around. Everyone seemed to feel that a huge mountain was approaching, and everyone held their breath.

But the atmosphere around Cheng Sanwu gradually calmed down, and he took a deep breath as if he had had a good meal.

"The appetite has become smaller. It takes a long time to eat a whole black dragon." Cheng Sanwu opened his eyes, and the surrounding world suddenly lit up.

Looking at Afu, Cheng Sanwu smiled and said, "You are indeed here."

"To ensure my identity, I still have to ask." Afu stared at Cheng Sanwu closely: "Are you Cheng Sanwu or Taotie now?"
