Shangguan Bai passed the test of nine iron basins, and the applause at the scene was thunderous, and everyone was emotional. Pen~Fun~www.biquge.info The soldier captain of the Buyi clan personally helped the ranger jump down the steps with his own hands, and gave him a warm prairie bear hug, and the rough stubble was pasted on both sides of Shangguan Bai's cheeks. This is the etiquette practiced by the people of the steppe tribes to their loved ones.

Shangguan Bai was warmly invited to a makeshift palace tent at the corner of the street, and met the leader of the Buyi tribe inside, Ankdan Khan. Khan likes this young man very much, in his words, Shangguan Bai has been chasing the desert dragon all the way all these years, breaking into no man's land, he is not only "the prodigal son in the desert", but also "the son of our grassland", and "the man of the horseback nation"!

Ankdan Khan told him about the gradual desertification of the steppe tribal states in recent years. In the past, it has become a custom for the tribes to choose a day to present the tributes of the tribal nations to the desert dragon and Lord Voldemort in the place of sacrifice every year during the rainfall. The monster of the twin dragons has become a sacred object in people's hearts, a totem and a belief in the grasslands and deserts.

The quicksand monster and Voldemort also acquiesced in this supply and demand relationship, after all, they were abandoned fairies, evil spirits with nowhere to go, and they had to carve out and survive in this desert. They are not obliged to make gratuitous contributions to the grasslands, deserts and the Gobi, but they do bring green to the grasslands, create crescent springs to the deserts, and melt the canyons and caves of the Gobi Desert into underground rivers. They balance the entire desert and the Gobi with the fate of life, old age, sickness and death, and evil spirits. They believe that they have brought life to the land, and naturally they deserve what they deserve.

However, the emergence of the two gangs of femme fatales has broken this seemingly balanced ecological chain relationship. Sometimes the femme fatale is in a mess, and sometimes they fight each other, destroying lives. They always robbed the tribes of the grasslands and deserts from the tributes they had paid to the desert dragons on the day of the sacrifice, and they also turned into the ghosts of Voldemort, like people asking for boys and girls, claiming that they were sacrificed to the only underground river in the desert and the grassland, and they needed the boys to throw themselves into the river as kappa.

This unreasonable demand worsened the relationship between the gods and the people. From then on, people no longer worshiped the sacrifices of quicksand monsters and Voldemort, and they no longer wanted to believe in the legend of the desert dragon. When the desert dragon learned about it, he was very angry, and he was angry and spit out the quicksand, breaking the boundary between the desert and the grassland, while chasing the trail of the femme fatale. It angrily alters the underground channels, rendering the grassland system lifeless and the desert oases out of existence.

As a branch of the largest tribal nation in the steppe tribe country, Ankdan Khan wrote a letter to the prince of the Aolai country, requesting the Aolai country to invite the most spiritual local feng shui master for the grassland tribe in the land of Dongsheng Shenzhou. So before the national teacher Gongsun Chu traveled, he was specially summoned by the king, hoping that Gongsun Gongzi would divinate the astrological signs for the grassland tribal country after he arrived.

After Gongsun Chu arrived in the grassland, he first sent Taoist scriptures and superior Buddhist scriptures to various tribes, and carried out cultural exchanges between the two religious beliefs. Later, he was invited to cast a spell for the Mobei grassland to divinate the astrological signs. Gongsun Chu cast a hexagram, tasted the taste of the local sand, and learned about the feng shui pass and development opportunities here. It was the goblins who induced the desert dragon to commit a disaster. And the goblins pinched the dragon veins in this area - the Big Rock Mountains and the Grand Canyon.

When Shangguan Bai heard this, he already knew the mission of his trip. Since he was entrusted by the people of the grassland, as a Buddhist disciple of Puji living beings, he has an unshirkable responsibility. He recalled that when his mentor descended the dragon Arhat, when he taught him to practice in the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, he asked him to go down the mountain as a lay disciple and subdue the goblins before leaving. Parting words: This trip, don't be lost, God has its own heavy responsibility. When you meet someone who is destined, you should pay attention, and hope that the merit will be completed as soon as possible and the cultivation will be fruitful!

It turns out that the destined person and the important task mentioned by the teacher are Ankedan Khan. Shangguan Bai finally understood the mission he was going to pursue and the meaning of the journey after all these years of walking alone in the desert. The teacher did not want him to go out of the mountains to subdue the sand devils, but to find his direction and the correct use of his power in the desert. All these years of fighting with the twin dragons, he has always lost himself and doesn't understand what he really wants. He decided to accept the request of the Khan of Ankdan, take the clothes and supplies prepared for him by the steppe people, and continue on his journey.

The Desert Dragon and Voldemort are the evil spirits of this land, inviolable, unsubdued, and can only be naturalized and led to the right path. With the determination to no longer be confused, Shangguan Bai re-embarked on his journey. This time, instead of following the footsteps of quicksand migration, he came directly to the underground cave of the Gobi Desert Grand Canyon. He wants to unravel the crux of this land, change the situation of the demon king's flooding desert, bring back the abducted evil spirits, and get back on the road. He needs to find the vibrasilisk's hideout.

At the same time, Gongsun Chu is also on a mission. In order to re-walk the Silk Road and open up the channel of communication between the world, he must return to the Grand Canyon of the Gobi Desert, where he will find ways and opportunities to change the balance of power of the thieves and bandits, and drive away the demons and monsters that dominate this place.

Gongsun Chu came to the entrance of the Grand Canyon early, and the towering stone walls stood on both sides. Looking up, the sky was only a line, like a huge crack, and there was no end in sight. Gongsun Chu was waiting, meditating, gathering news about the bandit forces in the Grand Canyon and the hiding place of the femme fatale.

Unexpectedly, at the mouth of the Grand Canyon cave, I met Shangguan Bai with a dragon cloak again. At this time, Shangguan Bai had already fought against the monster of the two-body evil spirit, and the desert dragon and Voldemort did not listen to the ranger's persuasion and explanation at all, as if they had been caught in the Gu technique of the cup, and they fell into a battle to the death when they met. The two-headed monster couldn't understand why Shangguan Bai was able to follow him all the way to this point. In its view, human attachment is a manifestation of extreme evil.

Shangguan Bai, who was forced to be helpless, was in danger of the tyrannosaurus going crazy, and at a critical juncture, he had to decide to use the sealing technique of the Great Lei Yin Temple to control the evil demons first, and bring them back to the desert north no man's land before making plans. is implementing the sealing of the dragon descending Arhat style - heaven and earth funnel array, suddenly the snake demon that has been ambushed for a long time sneak attacked the dantian qilei, the seal was not completed, and the rioting demon dragon wanted to shake the seal and return to the world.

Seeing this scene, Gongsun Chu immediately cast the immortal technique-the Hundred Variations Flowing String Technique! I saw that at the crack of the funnel sealing technique, a few flashes of white light flashed in an instant, and the crack of the seal was sewn by the Taoist immortal technique. Gongsun Chu shouted: "Ranger, please continue to cast the seal, if the demon breaks the seal at this time, his anger will inevitably cause the tyrannosaurus to get out of control and bring disaster to the world." The snake demon, please leave it to me and my fellow Daoists!"

With that, the smoke cloud pill threw out violently and smashed on the distant rock wall, and many green smoke suddenly exploded on the rock wall. After the green smoke cleared, a white-clothed Taoist disciple appeared. The white-clothed young Dao Leader jumped down, surrounded the snake demon, and began to set up the Jiuyang Red Flame Array. Seeing this, the snake demon took out the Xuanguang Crystal, and recited a spell to cast a demon spell - like a dream shadow!

Gongsun Chu and several young Dao Masters in the Jiuyang Array were all in the middle of the arts, and they were possessed by evil spirits, singing and dancing, singing the poems of Jiuyang real people.

Shangguan Bai was also suddenly caught in the illusion, and after the dream eyes were opened, he sang the Dharma, sang the praises of Shakyamuni the Great, and stopped the sealing ceremony. Seeing this, the quicksand monster took the opportunity to release a few tiny streams of quicksand from the crack, which accumulated and shot out the sand cone cannon. Shangguan Bai's heart was instantly pierced by the sand pillar, and blood splattered on Gongsun Chu's cheek.

The hot blood hit his face, and Gongsun Chu suddenly woke up from his dream!

The quicksand monster continued to cast the demon spell - the Flying Sand Flowing Wind Knife, trying to manipulate the quicksand to cut off Gongsun Chu's flowing string stitching technique. Gongsun Chu opened the folding fan in his hand, and twisted the immortal method with one hand-Shura Vacuum Knife! Resisted the quicksand monster's wind sand knife with a vacuum wave, but the quicksand monster still couldn't break through the seal, and continued to be sewn into the seal-like gap.

Gongsun Chu moved to Shangguan Bai's side in an instant, holding Shangguan Bai with one hand, his eyes searched for the location of the snake demon in the dark, and shouted: "Ranger, Ranger!" The Ranger woke up in pain, and a mouthful of blood sprayed on Gongsun Chu's ears, and he murmured with difficulty: "It seems that this dream needs great stimulation from the body to wake up." ”

Gongsun Chu exclaimed: "Brother Shangguan, have you already cultivated to become a Buddha? Even if you don't die immediately, you should be unable to move, you should not be able to speak!?"

The ranger covered the bloody hole full of mud and sand on his chest, and said with difficulty: "Don't worry, no one knows that I am born inverse, the meridians are the opposite of normal people, and the heart is also on the left." The ranger paused for a moment, renewing his true luck, and then said: "But now that the injury is serious, I only have half of the meridians to mention luck, and I need the national teacher to buy me time to complete the Arhat Sealing Technique!"

Gongsun Chu was surprised: "The ranger is really a god descending to earth, and he is different. Rest assured, I will not let anyone else stop you from casting spells. After that, Shangguan Bai continued his luck, refining spells, drawing tricks and seals, and preparing to complete the seal's horn dendrob technique. But I saw that the surrounding wind suddenly rose, and the yellow sand invaded the sky.

This is the sealing technique released by Voldemort - the Sand Sea Burial Array, and the center of the sealing vortex is Shangguan Bai, who is releasing each other's strongest sealing techniques. Gongsun Chu was swept away by this huge whirlpool of quicksand, and he couldn't stabilize his body at all. Hurriedly threw out the embroidery needle in the sleeve, and the needle was made of silkworm tough silk. He twisted four fingers with one hand and weaved a huge web of threads in the cave.

"Immortal Law - Heaven and Earth Web!" I saw that in the entire cave space, it was like being covered with spider silk, and the flowing strings of the Heaven and Earth Web held itself and fixed the figure. He stabilized his immortal qi and hurriedly looked for Shangguan Bai's location, but there was no trace of the ranger, and he didn't know where he was washed away by the quicksand.

The wind and sand continued to ravage the cave, and it was impossible to open his eyes. Gongsun Chu couldn't help but be shocked, this desert earth dragon was still locked in the seal, leaving only a gap, and it could cast such a large-scale spell, if it really broke through the seal of the Arhat Array, it would definitely destroy the heavens and the earth.

So he continued to look for the ranger's traces while beware of the snake demon's sneak attack. He knew that even if he showed a flaw, the snake spirit would not let go. After the last battle, the snake demon has seen itself as a thorn in the side that must be eliminated.

Suddenly, the wind and sand stopped, and the whirlpool of quicksand stopped sucking and sucking. The terrifying screams of Voldemort and the Desert Dragon echoed through the cavern, deafening.

It was Shangguan Bai's sealing style that was completed, and a huge Arhat funnel array appeared in the sky above the cave, slowly spiraling upward. As the demon's screams diminished and faded away, the massive seal crack vanished, leaving only a stream of quicksand flowing back and forth in an upside-down funnel. And in the huge karst cave, in the center of the sand sea whirlpool, a golden spirit pill burst out and landed on the sand.

When Shangguan Bai was swallowed by the whirlpool of quicksand, he still relied on his tenacity to complete the sealing technique of the Great Lei Yin Temple. At that moment, it was as if his soul had returned to the West, and the nervous system had failed due to excessive blood loss, and he gradually lost consciousness and could no longer feel his body.

Well, if my life belonged to this desert, I would like to return to my roots and bury my body in quicksand, turning into sludge and nourishing life. But my soul and my faith should go back to the Buddha.

So he used the last bit of his true qi to take out the Guiyuan Pill awarded by Arhat from his chest, and twisted it - the Dafa of Death.

Slowly, Shangguan Bai began to resurrect his soul in the sea of sand. At this time, he could no longer hear any noisy sounds from the outside world, could not see any images in front of him, and his will gradually blurred. When I opened my eyes again, I vaguely saw a towering giant Buddha with a monkey head, wearing a golden hoop, wearing a robe that defeated the Buddha, sitting on a lotus seat, and the Buddha was so illuminated that he couldn't open his eyes at all.

Seeing this scene, Shangguan Bai immediately knelt on his knees and bowed to the Buddha three times. The Buddha said approvingly to him: "Heroes don't ask where they come from, thank you for being so noble and believing in the Buddha." Don't be afraid, don't hesitate. The unfinished path will be guided by the Buddha again. Passed away in this life, and returned to immortality. The soul does not go through reincarnation, and the king of Hades does not enter the Pure Land. Reincarnation in the next life, be a hero again, and return your long-cherished wish. A parting proverb, don't ask if you have no friends in the future, and no one in the world knows you. ”

I saw that Guiyuan Dan was left in the sea of sand, shining with golden light. Gongsun Chu knew that it must have been sent by Shangguan Bai, so he moved over in an instant, picked up the pill and put it in his chest, and began to look for the exit of the cave. Suddenly, there was a suffocating lightning in his chest, and the golden pill actually shot through Gongsun Chu's heart like a sharp knife. A penetrating coolness and tingling sensation instantly flowed all over his body, and Gongsun Chu stood unsteadily, and began to hit the ground in surprise.

Seeing that the pill gradually turned into a hairy scorpion, Gongsun Chu opened his mouth wide and couldn't believe the scene in front of him. The snake demon walked out of the mirror behind Gongsun Chu again, supported Gongsun Chu, who couldn't move, and whispered with a sly smile: "I finally found a flaw in you." You've been perceiving my location, alerting to my presence, but ignoring that the scorpio is also in the hole. ”

The hairy scorpion then turned into a human form, walked in front of Gongsun Chu, and laughed: "Little brother, we were played badly by you last time." This time it was finally our turn. With that, a scythe, a black shadow flashed from Gongsun Chu's neck, and the head of the Divine Appearance National Master flew down instantly.

Gongsun Chu's eyes widened, and he watched the cave world spin in pain. He knew it was his head spinning in the air, falling, falling, rolling on the ground......

When his vision froze and no longer changed, he saw a headless body in white lying in a pool of blood, which was his own body.

Gongsun Chu, who had just begun to go out of his body at this time, seemed to see his grief-stricken expression and saw the scene of his head in a different place. He closed his eyes, not daring to look again, not to believe it. He still has too many vows to fulfill, and he still has important missions and responsibilities, how can he lose his life at this time? He cried bitterly, not daring to accept such a reality. When he opened his eyes again, he saw a huge monkey-faced Buddha, sitting cross-legged on top of a lotus flower, and a huge robe covering the lotus seat.

"Fellow cultivators, please don't be afraid, and don't be confused. Maybe you are still unwilling, maybe you still have too many long-cherished wishes that you have not yet completed, but your deeds have touched the heavens and will definitely go down in history. Today, I will follow the holy decree of Guanyin Niangniang and bring the passers-by back to their souls. Since you and the path of cultivation have been exhausted here, then the door of Buddhism is also open for you. This reincarnation, without passing through the Yama Temple, will not ascend to Elysium. Just for the fate of people to return to fate, cultivate themselves and become Buddhas, and open up the connection of the world. Amitabha!" said the monkey Buddha.

Gongsun Chu immediately knelt down and bowed to the holy Buddha, and the holy Buddha disappeared into the Buddha's light, and Gongsun Chu's soul seemed to be guided, and the wandering soul hid in the mountains of Dayan Mountain.
