Chapter 71 That man is back?
Looking at the red gourd in front of him, Yang Ling's eyes changed from disgust at first to eagerness.

The gourd is a very common shape of spiritual treasure.

But there are only a few famous gourds.

And those gourds have the same origin, they all grow from the same gourd vine.

This gourd vine is a top-grade innate spiritual root. It has been attached to Mount Buzhou since the creation of the world.

Because the innate spiritual roots need immeasurable spiritual energy to grow, and Mount Buzhou, as the spine of the great god Pangu, is known as the ancestral vein of the ancient times, and has the richest spiritual energy!
After a long time, this innate gourd vine absorbed a huge amount of spiritual energy and eventually produced seven gourds, each with a different color.

On the day when the seven gourds matured, strange phenomena occurred within a million miles of Mount Buzhou, which almost shook the entire prehistoric world and attracted many powerful people to scramble for them.

In the end, the seven gourds fell into the hands of seven powerful men.

Among them, the red-skinned gourd was obtained by the ancestor Hongyun.

The gourd contains nine kinds of soul-dispersing red sand, which have been refined by the master for countless years. Each grain of red sand is as big as a star. Once released, it is like a dazzling galaxy, covering the sky and the earth.

The Nine-Nine Soul-Dispersing Red Sand can pollute a person's primordial spirit, disperse the soul and take away the spirit. It is a powerful weapon in a fight. The gourd itself can also absorb souls and use them for its own purposes.

This magic weapon is extremely powerful, combining both offensive and defensive capabilities. There are few acquired spiritual treasures that can be compared with it.

However, the Red Cloud Ancestor who holds it is a well-known good man in the prehistoric times. As the first cloud after the creation of the world, he not only has deep roots and long-lasting blessings, but his own magical powers can also rank among the top among all the powerful beings.

In addition, he has always been sincere and kind to others, so this gourd is rarely used.

However, precisely because of his kind-hearted nature, he actually gave the cushion to the Taoist Zhunti from the West in Zixiao Palace, and also helped persuade Patriarch Kunpeng to give up his cushion.

Who would have thought that the six cushions in the Zixiao Palace actually represented six saints. After the sermon, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Jie Yin and Zhunti who sat on the six cushions were all granted the opportunity to become saints - the Hongmeng Purple Air.

And there is one last one, which is the seventh one of Hongmeng purple energy which will choose its own master and remain for the destined person.

Because of his momentary kindness, Patriarch Hongyun not only gave up this supreme opportunity, but also caused Patriarch Kunpeng to lose the chance to become a saint.

Therefore, the two of them became enemies.

Afterwards, Patriarch Kunpeng suspected that the last ray of primordial purple energy was taken away by Patriarch Hongyun, so he joined forces with Patriarch Minghe to target Patriarch Hongyun.

In the end, Patriarch Hongyun was defeated and died, and the Jiujiu Sanhun Gourd also disappeared!
"So..." Yang Ling stroked the black blood stains on the surface of the red gourd, his eyes becoming more and more eager, "You are the Nine-Nine Soul-Dispersing Gourd, right?"

The gourd couldn't speak, so it naturally couldn't answer his question.

However, looking at the brilliant starry sky hidden in the gourd, Yang Ling had already determined in his heart that this somewhat shabby-looking gourd was the legendary Nine-Nine Soul-Dispersing Gourd!

The reason why it looks shabby may be because the sacred object is self-obscure.

Thinking of this, Yang Ling held the gourd in his palm, closed his eyes slightly, and carefully probed into the gourd with his divine sense.

His spiritual thoughts penetrated into the gourd like a thin thread, and he immediately felt a powerful force lurking inside the gourd.

Then he discovered that there were a total of forty acquired restrictions inside the gourd!
There is no doubt that this scarlet and shabby gourd is a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure!
Each of these acquired restrictions contains extremely powerful forces, which are intertwined like rune laws to form an extremely complex network.

Yang Ling knew nothing about runes and formations.

However, he could still feel the mystery of these acquired restrictions, which were no less powerful than the innate restrictions within the Luobao Money.

Unlike the innate restrictions that are naturally formed, these restrictions in the red gourd clearly show traces of acquired carving.

Each of its prohibitions is carefully designed, and they are both independent and interdependent, forming a complete system.

Yang Ling took a deep breath, and then began to circulate his spiritual power, carefully refining this top-grade acquired spiritual treasure.

It is worth mentioning that this red gourd is an ownerless treasure. Although there are traces of being sacrificed by someone on the restriction, the original imprint of the soul has been erased.

This also made it easier for Yang Ling to sacrifice the red gourd than to sacrifice the falling treasure money. After all, it was the first time for the falling treasure money, and it was quite resistant to others leaving marks in its body, so it needed a little bit of persuasion, but when refining this gourd, he only needed to follow the traces of the predecessors and work hard.

Time passed little by little, and the sky gradually brightened.

As a hint of pale sky appeared in the eastern sky, Yang Ling successfully imprinted his soul mark on the first restriction of the scarlet gourd.

He also successfully learned the real name of this treasure - Nine-Nine Soul-Dispersing Gourd!
……

Xiniu Hezhou
The vast world spread out like a scroll above Mount Sumeru.

The sky is filled with colorful mist and there are thousands of auspicious lights.

This vast world is the holy land of Western religion - the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

At this moment, in the Eight Treasures Merit Pond in the deepest part of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, a twelve-petal golden lotus is rising slowly from the pond.

The golden lotus blossomed and turned into a lotus platform, about ten feet square.

A skinny figure suddenly appeared on the lotus platform.

His face was full of sorrow and his eyes were full of compassion.

"Brother Zhunti, have you sensed it?"

"Do~"

Along with the sound of wooden fish, an ancient Bodhi tree filled with a mysterious aura appeared beside the Eight Treasures Merit Pond.

A Taoist priest with a pale face and thin body sat cross-legged under the Bodhi tree, nodded slightly and said: "I have sensed a great cause and effect... Brother, do you know who that person is?"

Obviously, the Taoist sitting under the Bodhi tree is the second leader of the Western religion, the Bodhisattva Cundi!

The person he called senior brother was naturally the great leader of the Western Religion, Saint Jie Yin.

At this moment, the Saint Jie Yin was sitting upright on the lotus platform, his eyes slightly closed, his face full of sorrow, as if he was silently deducing something.

After a long time, he sighed softly, "It seems like an old friend has come..."

“Oh?” Saint Zhunti was slightly surprised when he heard this and said, “You and I, brothers, are practicing in this poor place in the west. We rarely have karma with others, let alone a great karma…”

At this point, the Saint Zhunti seemed to have thought of something, frowned and asked, "Could it be that he is not dead?"

“Maybe…” The Saint Jie Yin said sadly, “The great catastrophe is approaching, the secrets of heaven are hazy, and it is difficult for me to see clearly.

But apart from the karma we owe him, there is nothing else that can be called a great karma, right?"

"That's true." Saint Zhunti nodded slightly, "But wasn't he reduced to ashes back then?

I personally checked it out, and there was not even a trace of soul left. But his gourd was also missing for some reason... maybe there was a primordial purple aura hidden in it."

"Perhaps there is someone who will inherit his legacy." The Saint Jie Yin said thoughtfully.

“Then just ignore him.” Saint Zhunti said sternly, “According to the time, the Conferred God Tribulation is about to begin.

This is a rare opportunity for us Western religions!"

"Then you have to muddy the water first."

"Yes, it is in muddy waters that it is easy to fish!"
