I am collecting entries in reincarnation

Chapter 62 Bai Hongzi (Ask for Everything)
The Eight-Gate Dragon-Seeking Plate is about the size of two adult palms, roughly the same size as an ordinary Bagua mirror. It is made of fine gold, giving it a sense of nobility. It is engraved with the Tai Chi Bagua and eight golden dragons entwined, connected head to tail. It does not feel heavy when held in the hand.

When talking about the Eight-Gate Dragon-Seeking Disk that he had refined, Fuyouzi suddenly became eloquent and boasted about it to the utmost. Of course, Li Ming knew that this was just self-praise, so after removing about 90% of the water from Fuyouzi's mouth, he came to the following conclusion.

Since the Eight-Gate Dragon-Seeking Plate was refined from a floating object contaminated with dragon energy, its most important function is to be able to observe the weather in all directions, which is very helpful for deduction. In addition, it also has the effect of clearing the mind, protecting the body, and guarding the soul. Of course, when necessary, it also has a good defensive power.

In short, it is a spiritual weapon that tends to be auxiliary and defensive.

After Fuyouzi finished speaking, Li Ming took out the blood-colored long sword he had confiscated from Huang Laoqi. He had not provided it with blood food in the past few days. Instead, he suppressed it with Taoist magic and layers of talismans, but blood and energy still came out from time to time.

"Master, this time when I came down the mountain, I encountered a remnant of the Tianyin Sect, who called himself Huang Laoqi. This is the evil weapon I seized from him. I am unsure about it, and I would like to ask Master to take a look."

"Oh? The Tianyin Sect? There are still remnants left in the world. It used to be a very famous side sect. Its basic text "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yin Treasure Record" is quite powerful. However, it embarked on the evil path and aroused public anger, and then it was scattered like clouds and turned into dust." Fuyouzi was really a scholar. He uttered these words after hearing the three words "Tianyin Sect".

Li Ming said, "I also received a volume of Taoist book. There is no title on the book. I wonder if it is the so-called 'Nine Heavens Mysterious Yin Treasure Record'."

As he spoke, he took out the Taoist book with the missing page from his arms.

Fuyouzi flipped through it casually and said, "It's a pity that a lot of it is missing, but there are also some good points. Most of the Taoist techniques are harmful and evil, so they should not be learned. However, the principles and realms of cultivation in it are worth studying."

After saying that, he returned the Taoist book to Li Ming, and then Li Ming presented the bloody knife.

Fuyouzi didn't care at first, but then he uncovered the talisman. His face immediately became solemn. He quickly looked at it three times, touched it up and down, and looked at the patterns on the blood knife for a long time.

Seeing Fuyouzi so serious, Chang Miao also asked: "Master, is it possible that this knife has an extraordinary origin?"

Fuyouzi nodded and said, "If my guess is correct, it should have been forged by the Blood Daoist eight hundred years ago."

"Blood Taoist?" Li Ming frowned.

Chang Miao also said: "This person's name is so casual."

Fuyouzi snorted coldly, "This is just something that was imposed by later generations. He was originally unknown and spent his entire life in seclusion, yet he passed down three evil weapons: the Blood-Drinking Knife, the Heart-Devouring Armor, and the Soul-Devouring Mirror."

"Blood-Drinking Knife, Heart-Eating Armor, and Soul-Devouring Realm don't sound like good things, do they?" Chang Miao said.

Fuyouzi said, "Otherwise, how could they be called evil weapons? These three evil weapons can bewitch people and erode the user's mind, but they are also extremely powerful, and those in the evil ways are most susceptible to them, so they caused quite a stir at the time."

"What happened next?" Chang Miao asked.

"Later," Fuyouzi said with a smile, "naturally, good prevails over evil. The three evil weapons were taken back to the mountains by the White Horse Temple, the Shushan Dengtian Sect, and Jiuhua Mountain to be suppressed."

"Why keep such evil weapons that can harm people?" Li Ming asked.

"The most powerful aspect of these three evil weapons is that they grow stronger the more flesh, blood, and souls they absorb. Even if they are destroyed, a fragment can slowly restore them. They cannot be completely destroyed. If they are broken into pieces, there is no guarantee that someone will not slaughter them in order to repair them. So after discussion, we decided to take each of them back to the mountain gate."

Fuyouzi said this, but sighed: "It's a pity that evil things can confuse people's minds. As far as I know, accidents happened one after another later. However, these three evil things have not reappeared in the world. There seems to be a legend about these three evil things."

"What legend?" Li Ming and Chang Miao asked together.

"The blood knife is ominous, it will cause chaos when it comes out, it will make the heart confused, it will bring disaster to China, it will devour souls and confuse the mind, the world will be in turmoil, the three evils will appear at the same time, the earth will be turned upside down." Fuyouzi said word by word.

"Is it so powerful?" Chang Miao looked at the blood knife carefully again, showing some disdain.

Fuyouzi laughed and said, "Perhaps it's just a rumor. After all, that happened eight hundred years ago. Now the spiritual energy is waning, and the power of Taoism has greatly decreased. The same is true for these magical instruments. They can't cause much trouble. But we still have to be careful and seal or suppress them."

Li Ming naturally responded yes, then took out a few more yellow talismans and stuck them on the blood knife in several layers before putting them aside.

Then Fuyouzi asked again, "How is the matter I asked you to do?"

Li Ming bowed and replied, "Disciple has severed the connection between the Nine-Curved Flying Star Formation and us."

Fuyouzi nodded and said, "I borrowed his great luck for thirty years to subdue the dragon energy. Although I took action many times during this period, the cause and effect are too deep. Now I can no longer extricate myself. But I still hope that you can return to Yuhua Mountain and revitalize my Tongxuan lineage." "Now that the spiritual weapon is completed, and you two brothers have cultivated enough, I am satisfied."

Hearing Fuyouzi's words, which sounded like his last words, Li Ming and Chang Miao were both filled with fear.

"Master, what are you talking about?" Chang Miao knelt on the ground with a plop. "I still have a lot to learn, Master. Please don't..."

"Hahaha, silly child, birth, old age, sickness and death, who can escape it? We cultivators should be more indifferent to it. Some things are bound to happen, and as long as they are natural, there is no need to feel sad."

"But Master, I can't bear to leave you!" Chang Miao knelt on the ground, tears flashing in his eyes.

Li Ming was also very moved and knelt aside as well. At this moment, he also clearly realized that Fuyouzi had just had a last burst of energy.

"Life is full of separations!" Fuyouzi said with a smile, and there seemed to be some inexplicable emotions in his eyes that were difficult to describe.

"I once said that I was here to do one thing and wait for someone. The thing has been done, but the person has not come. That's it, that's it."

"Chang Qing, Chang Miao!" Fuyouzi's tone suddenly became stern.

"Disciple is here!" they both answered in unison.

"Listen carefully, my real Taoist name is Yuhua Mountain Bai Hongzi! Today, with the testimony of the ancestors, I will pass on the Yuhua Mountain Tongxuan lineage to my eldest disciple Chang Qing! Chang Miao, are you dissatisfied?!" Fuyouzi stood up straight. Just this action seemed to have spent all his strength, but he was so determined, with an aura that no one could match.

Chang Miao was already sobbing uncontrollably at this moment. She reached out to wipe away the tears in her eyes and choked out, "Disciple is convinced!"

"Okay!" Fuyouzi took out a rolled-up white cloth from his arms and said, "Changqing, obey my orders!"

"My disciple is here!" Li Ming's expression was firm, which made Fuyou, no, Bai Hongzi look at him with approval.

"As the sixteenth generation descendant of the Tongxuan lineage, I will pass on the 'Heavenly Evolution Diagram' to you. From now on, you will be the master of the Tongxuan lineage!"

"Disciple obeys your command!" Li Ming reached out and took the "Heavenly Evolution Map" from Bai Hongzi's hand. He felt the trembling of Bai Hongzi's hands and felt uncomfortable in his heart.

"Chang Qing, compared to Chang Miao, I am actually more worried about you. He is just young at heart, but you are different. You have been precocious since childhood. But I would rather you were not so sensible. You have too much hidden in your heart, and it is too tiring. But I still want to trouble you to help our Tongxuan lineage restore its reputation! Okay?" There was already a hint of request in Bai Hongzi's voice.

Li Ming naturally nodded in agreement immediately.

Then Bai Hongzi laughed heartily and looked out the window at the scenery he had seen for thirty years, the trees, flowers and plants that Chang Miao said he was tired of seeing, with nostalgia in his eyes.

"A lifetime of cultivation has finally come to nothing. Seventy years of dreams have been shattered. I am used to seeing the right and wrong of this world. Today I will return to the way I came!"

After reciting a poem, Bai Hongzi said with a smile, "Take me back to Yuhua Mountain. I'm tired of the pine trees here. Oh, and remember to burn incense for me to the ancestor!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he died.

This learned monk who traveled to many countries and had radical ideas finally came to the end of his life today. He was expelled from the mountain for not following tradition, but his last words before his death were to return to his roots. No one knows whether he was innovative or conservative.

Whether the person he was waiting for was a man or a woman, the answer to this question disappeared into the dust as he closed his eyes.

PS: Generally speaking, I will read book reviews and if the criticisms and suggestions are reasonable, I will make appropriate modifications.

However, I feel that some opinions are irrelevant or do not constitute any logical loopholes or irrationalities. I reserve my opinion on such opinions and will not make any changes.

I still welcome everyone's suggestions. After all, only by knowing the problems can we make better progress.

Finally, it is my hope to build a harmonious book review area. I hope everyone can support me. Thank you very much.
