After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

Now that the formula has been handed over to Liu Longyue, given her temperament, she will definitely spare no expense to gather rare and precious materials to help Xiao Li'er recover from her injuries.

Sure enough, the next morning Liu Longyue went out again. According to Zhang Sanfeng, she went to a nearby city to look for the whereabouts of the medicinal herbs.

Chen Futu simply smiled and wasn't in a hurry, believing that the person from Peach Blossom Mountain would arrive in person in a few days.

Ten days passed in a flash, and when Liu Longyue returned, she looked completely lost and dejected.

Chen Futu knew very well that the medicinal materials required for the Transformation Emperor Pill were extremely rare and not so easy to obtain. Not to mention the surrounding cities, even the major sects might not be able to produce them, unless they had a power with a Great Emperor in charge.

At dusk, peach blossoms danced in the air, creating a scene of unparalleled beauty.

The Goddess of Peach Blossoms arrived gracefully, breathtakingly beautiful.

Chen Futu said strangely, "It's quite unexpected that the goddess herself has come."

"Your Majesty is joking. You told me about the medicinal herbs, didn't you mean you wanted me to collect them?"

With a wave of her hand, the goddess placed one exquisite jade box after another on the table.

Chen Futu examined them carefully and found that they were indeed the materials needed for the Transformation Pill formula, demonstrating the profound resources of Peach Blossom Divine Mountain, although something was still missing.

The Peach Blossom Goddess said, "Recently, I have visited many old friends and spent some of my favors to obtain the medicinal herbs."

"No one would refuse a favor from a supreme emperor."

"That being said, three key ingredients are still missing: first, the innate wood essence; second, the rootless water of the other shore; and third, the essence and blood of the Great Emperor."

The Peach Blossom Goddess's attitude was clear.

Of these three items, Chen Futu definitely possesses the third one, because he killed three emperors in succession: the Divine Court Emperor, the Liang Family Emperor, and An Tao of Peach Blossom Mountain.

Chen Futu didn't feel embarrassed when he met the gaze of the Peach Blossom Goddess, and took out the Emperor's essence blood that he had extracted from An Tao right in front of her.

Looking at the snow-white jade porcelain bottle, the Peach Blossom Goddess's eyes grew even colder. "The Holy Emperor is truly ruthless."

"Hehe, as long as the goddess doesn't blame me."

“He who kills will be killed in return. This is the ultimate truth of Heaven. An Tao died at your hands because she was not as skilled as you.”

"If the goddess says so, I am relieved. As for the other two, the innate wood essence, I can obtain them."

"really?"

The Peach Blossom Goddess was quite surprised.

Chen Futu smiled without saying a word. Jianmu is the innate root and one of the strongest trees in the world. It is not a problem to extract a drop of innate wood essence from the branches of the Jianmu planted in Lizhou, so only the rootless water of the other shore is left.

The Peach Blossom Goddess pondered, "There are many legends about the other shore, one being the Yellow Springs, and the other the Sea of ​​Bitterness. Should we go to the Buddhist temple for a journey?"

"There may be water without roots in the sea of ​​suffering. If the goddess has time, why don't we go to the Buddhist temple and beg for alms?"

Chen Futu said with a wicked sense of humor.

The Peach Blossom Goddess did not refuse. She desperately needed to heal her Dao injuries. If she could obtain a Transformation Emperor Pill, she would be willing to fight the bald monks of Buddhism. However, she and the Jade Emperor agreed not to easily harm the Emperor again.

Chen Futu smiled and said, "Although I look down on Buddhism, I have no objection if those bald monks can be kept as cannon fodder to suppress the curse of the earth veins. Moreover, I have heard that the Buddhist foundation is located in the Sea of ​​Bitterness, and we may be able to gain something from this trip."

After Chen Futu and the Peach Blossom Goddess finished their discussion, Chen Futu picked up Chen Li, called Zhang Sanfeng, and the four of them headed southwest towards Huahong.

At this moment, Liu Longyue was upset and unaware that her precious son had been shamelessly kidnapped. It wasn't until Zhang Xiaoxiao came home and said that Xiao Li'er had been taken away by a strange uncle that Liu Longyue belatedly realized what had happened and hurriedly came to the courtyard.

After confirming that her son had been taken away, her eyes turned bloodshot. Just as she was about to lash out, Dongfang Que suddenly handed her a recording stone, which contained Chen Futu's mischievous voice: "Little Yueyue, I especially like Xiao Li'er, so I took him out for a walk. We'll be back soon, so don't worry."

"You bastard, I won't let you get away with this!"

Liu Longyue was both anxious and angry. She crushed the recording stone, but unfortunately, her anger was useless now, and she could only stare helplessly.

"Uncle, where are we going?"

Little Li'er giggled in Chen Futu's arms, discovering that his uncle flew incredibly fast, even faster than his mother.

Chen Futu doted on him, saying, "Don't call me Uncle, call me Father."

"Father?"

"Good~"

Chen Futu laughed heartily.

The Peach Blossom Goddess asked strangely, "Doesn't the Holy Emperor think it's shameful to take advantage of a child?"

"Is it shameful? I don't think so. I like this child very much."

Chen Futu didn't explain the relationship between the father and son. He casually stuffed some more food into Xiao Li'er's hand. The little guy was naturally happy and waved his little fist, saying that when he grew up he would be as powerful as his father.

Before long, the three arrived near the Sea of ​​Suffering, the other side of the Buddhist temple.

The boundless sea of ​​suffering appears as a pale gold color, within which endless Buddha light lingers.

The Peach Blossom Goddess said softly, "Legend has it that the Bitter Sea is an ultimate imperial weapon, or even a divine weapon, with the power to save one from calamities and disasters. There is also a legend that some eminent Buddhist monks would enter the Bitter Sea to pass away, and only Buddhists can cross it."

"It's okay, now that I'm here, I'll make the best of it."

Chen Futu disliked Buddhism. Since he had come all this way, wouldn't it be a waste not to take something with him?

The group descended onto the black earth at the edge of the Sea of ​​Bitterness. As soon as they landed, the endless ocean before them was filled with Buddhist chants. Chen Futu unleashed the Imperial Seal of the State, which swirled around him to deflect the Buddhist taunts, mainly to protect Xiao Li'er.

Zhang Sanfeng and the Peach Blossom Divine Skill are both masters of creation. One is a terrestrial immortal, and the other is an injured supreme emperor. They do not need to rely on external forces to resist the erosion of their minds by the Buddhist chants.

The Buddhist community cannot detect the arrival of the three, so the three only need to consider how to enter the Sea of ​​Suffering. Would it be inappropriate to rashly rush in?

Chen Futu said, "You two should also disguise yourselves a little to avoid any unforeseen complications."

The Peach Blossom Goddess and Zhang Sanfeng looked at each other and used their supreme supernatural powers to change the world. One of them turned into a frail old woman, and the other into an old man who looked like a beggar.

Chen Futu said with a dark face, "Although we came here to dig into people's foundations, it doesn't have to be this shabby."

The two seemed not to hear, carefully observing the Sea of ​​Bitterness and checking for any restrictions. After some investigation, they found that the Sea of ​​Bitterness was indeed not a place to trespass. Outsiders who did not cultivate Buddhist supernatural powers would be discovered the moment they crossed the Sea of ​​Bitterness, and would also be affected by the Buddhist sermons that lingered within it. They would need Buddhist treasures or Buddhist martial arts supernatural powers to protect themselves.

Chen Futu said gloatingly, "I cultivate the Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of My Hand. If you two don't mind, I can take you there."

The Peach Blossom Goddess said, "I dare not trouble the Holy Emperor. I once used the Boundless Buddha Light to suppress my Dao injury."

"I also have some connection with Buddhism. I have read the Bodhidharma Sutra. Although it is not of high quality, it is still useful now."

Even if Zhang Sanfeng hadn't mentioned it, Chen Futu would have almost forgotten that since everyone possessed Buddhist supernatural powers, they could cross the river.
