Chapter 338: Mirage Orb (Part II)

Since mirage is formed by human distractions, it is full of powerful power that can affect the mind, although this power is powerful and unique, but it is very mixed, like an extremely sharp double-edged sword, and the slightest carelessness will hurt oneself. Qi beads are the essence of qi condensation, and the power of each mirage bead is different, and while giving the owner great power, it also devours its master.

Back then, Wang Mang and Zhang Jiao were all cultivators, and they knew the pros and cons of qi beads, so they used them very carefully. But even so, while they were also gaining demagogic magical powers, their Dao cultivation was greatly reduced, and they finally died in the hands of secular martial cultivators. Although Yang Yuhuan did not use qi beads, she still had the extraordinary charm of fascinating all beings because she often wore them, but her life was affected by it, and in the end, she was ruined, and even Li Longji, the Tang Ming Emperor who had been in contact with her for a long time, was also harmed by it.

However, these three qi beads were finally taken to the immortal realm by the ascending people, and the secular world and the cultivation world did not hear any more news about the qi beads, and now that a few calamity magic beads appeared in this western land at once, it was hard not to surprise Xu Changqing. In his opinion, this may also be a sign before the catastrophe of heaven and earth.

Based on Xu Changqing's understanding of those Tibetan scripture texts, he felt that the qi beads in this old man's hand were far from being comparable to the three that appeared in the Han and Tang dynasties, both in terms of power and backlash against the user.

Judging from the old man's current condition, this qi bead gave him an extremely powerful divine thought power, and with this power, he was even able to effortlessly devour the divine thoughts released by others. First, he also possessed the ability to manipulate qi to create a real illusion, but this power was not strong, and it was not enough to trap a cultivator like Xu Changqing. As for the Qi Bead's backlash damage to him, it was far less than what he obtained, and the old man was now just a little nervous because of the Qi full of chaotic thoughts, and split his divine thoughts into multiple people.

In terms of power, the town's qi beads were obviously much more powerful than the old man, not only could they generate power that benefited the entire town's residents, but also made Xu Changqing temporarily fascinated by the illusion without anyone controlling him, and trapped him here. It's just that compared to the three qi beads in the east, this power is obviously a bit insignificant.

After all, whether it was Wang Mang, Brother Zhang Jiao, or Yang Yuhuan, they were all able to charm sentient beings, from their husbands and pawns to half-immortal monks, and there were many masters in the cultivation world whose realm was higher than Xu Changqing.

The regurgitation of the mirage bead is very dangerous, and it can even be said to be deadly, but the power contained in the qi bead is very powerful, strong enough to make people forget its danger. There are countless people in the cultivation world who are obsessed with it, although the ninth-rate idlers of the past generations are only interested in heaven and earth spiritual objects, but it is difficult not to be tempted by such a powerful treasure as the qi bead, at least now Xu Changqing is a little moved.

If the power of the qi beads that appeared here was similar to the three that appeared in Huaxia, Xu Changqing would definitely not have any thoughts about them. Because in his opinion, even though the power of the Qi Bead is fascinating, it is not enough to compare with the Great Dao, and at this time when he finds the spiritual objects of heaven and earth and is about to cultivate the Jindan Dao, he will not make any extraneous branches.

However, now judging from the appearance of the old man and the residents of the town, the backlash of this qi bead is not as strict as imagined. Moreover, judging from his previous experience, the Qi Bead in the town may have the ability to penetrate time, which is extremely attractive to Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing suppressed the impulse in his heart, looked at the old man expressionlessly, and asked, "How can we cooperate?"

"Of course we need!" The old man seemed to see that Xu Changqing was already moved, and his voice changed to the first hoarse voice again, and said: "Those children are just opening the way for us, if we waste our strength outside, after entering the cave, it will be impossible to open the barrier of the psychedelic beads." We've been studying psychedelic beads for a hundred years, but we're only half sure that we'll be able to break the barriers created by psychedelic beads, but now that you're here, that certainty can be said to be ...... Hey hey!".

Xu Changqing felt that the old man's words were not true, perhaps because the old man thought that he might already know something, or maybe the old man deliberately wanted to hide some details. However, Xu Changqing never thought that the old man would tell him everything he knew, and he didn't think that after the things were in hand, the old man would be willing to honestly hand over his share.

At this time, the Huang Zhan Ghost who had been released by the spell before told him that he had found a suspicious place. Through the eyes of the war ghosts, Xu Changqing, who stretched out the inn in the town, saw that it was a dense forest, and the demon hunter gate that had just left was gathering outside the woods, and there was a force in the woods that had a great suppression of the war ghosts.

"You don't want to go it alone, do you?" Seeing that Xu Changqing didn't speak, as if he was thinking about things, the old man's voice immediately became sharp, and he said in a gloomy tone: "Don't be delusional about swallowing those two psychedelic beads alone, although you can break the barrier, you don't know the situation there." Even if you can get to the innermost part of the cavern, you won't be able to get them. Only I can get close to them without alarming them, and if they escape, it will not be easy to find them, and you should know that!"

Although it was a little strange for the old man to call the qi bead in a tone similar to that of a living person, Xu Changqing understood that the mirage qi bead was different from other innate spirit creatures, and in a sense, the qi bead was alive. At the moment when human distractions form qi, qi has a spirituality that other heaven and earth auras do not have, and after condensing into an entity, its spirituality is even stronger, and even suspiciously transformed into a demon. In addition, he also understood why the old man said that only he could get the qi bead, and it was recorded in the ancient anecdotes of the cultivation world that the qi bead was drawn out by Wang Mang and Zhang Jiao brothers with qi, so now it seems that only this old man who claims to be a multi-minded person can find the qi bead hidden in the qi white mist.

Xu Changqing weighed the pros and cons a little in his heart, and felt that although it was a little dangerous, the gain must be great, so he nodded and said, "I agree to cooperate, what do I need to do?"

"Hehe!" the old man's voice returned to a hoarse state and said, "Eastern cultivator, you have made a wise decision. There aren't many things you need to do......" Just as the old man was about to explain his method of breaking the qi white mist, his expression suddenly froze, his body flashed, and he appeared by the window, his eyes stared out of the window, and he exclaimed: "How can this be? Could it be that someone has obtained the psychedelic bead?"
