A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 685: In a Small Town

His soul was shattered into pieces and was now beginning to die like a tree burned by fire.

The soul power scattered uncontrollably, becoming weaker and weaker.

……

Inside Jianyang Sect.

Zhou Bufan stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the big pit in the distance, veins popping out in his sleeves and on his fists.

A hand appeared out of nowhere, gently grasped his fist, and whispered, "Brother Zhou, you don't have a choice."

It’s Long Li.

Zhou Bufan closed his eyes and said nothing.

The dust cleared.

The head of Xuanling Sect appeared in front of him.

"Please abide by the agreement, senior."

Zhou Bufan walked up.

"Humph, he got away."

The Xuanling Sect's leader waved his sleeves.

Hearing this, Zhou Bufan's eyes showed a hint of joy.

However, after seeing this, the Xuanling Sect's headmaster's face darkened and he said coldly, "His soul was severely damaged, and his body was blown into pieces. He won't survive even if he escapes. Also, Headmaster Zhou, please don't forget your position. He is now a demon, working for an alien race, killing the demons of our human race who are practicing martial arts."

"Junior, remember this."

Zhou Bufan immediately lowered his head.

"Senior, now that the matter is settled, my junior brother who cultivates the Six Qi can be released now."

Long Li asked softly.

"Of course, my Xuanling Sect clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment."

A small tower appeared in the master's hand, and a young man flew out from it.

It was Xiao Can. Ever since he came back last time and let Xuanling Sect know about his relationship with Lu Luan, he has been under house arrest to prevent him from going out and tipping off the enemy.

Looking around, he guessed something and felt dazed for a moment.

"Master Zhou, your sect's people made such a big mistake this time, and they should have been severely punished. It was the Grand Elder who thought you were unaware, so he didn't blame you. In the future, you should properly discipline the elders and disciples in your sect. If anyone else is possessed by the devil, there is no need for the Jianyang Sect to exist, and it should be disbanded right now."

The head of Xuanling Sect spoke meaningfully to Zhou Bufan.

"Don't worry, senior. I will teach everyone in the sect well in the future."

Zhou Bufan replied immediately.

"So best."

The leader of Xuanling Sect glanced at a few people and then left.

"Brother Zhou, Sister Long, is my brother really dead?"

Can Lu asked in disbelief.

"Although they attacked my junior brother, they didn't find his body. His death is not certain."

Long Li also comforted him: "Junior Brother Lu, good luck will come to you, everything will be fine."

"I shouldn't have left my brother in the first place. If I were still here, my brother would never have become possessed."

Xiao Can's eyes were full of self-blame. He guessed that it was because he was not around that Lu Luan could not help but use his magic power again, which led to him becoming possessed.

"Brother must be fine."

Time passed slowly.

As it was in the past, it is still the same now.

Everything returned to calm.

In the cave, the tattered figure lying on the ground began to accumulate dust, lying quietly and motionless, like a piece of green grass that accidentally fell there, its vitality fading away, and slowly withering.

Just as the Lu Feng Sheng hexagram indicated, his road had already ended before the Jin Dan, and there were cliffs ahead with no way to go.

In this world, even having a road is full of dangers, and having no road is tantamount to a dead end.

……

Three months later

It was a rainy day and the autumn wind was bleak.

On a street in a small town, a woman in white was walking alone.

"Fellow Taoist, stay."

She stopped a passer-by.

"My fellow Taoist, what's the important matter?"

The man stopped and asked in confusion.

The woman bowed and asked, "Daoyou, I'm new here. I heard there are Buddhist and Taoist monks in this sea area. Is that true?"

"Buddhist monk?"

After thinking for a while, the man apologized and said, "I'm sorry, Daoist friend, I have never heard of it. It may also be because I often practice and rarely go out, so I don't know much. Daoist friend, you may want to ask somewhere else."

"Then do you know which forces on this island have Buddhist treasures?"

the woman asked again.

"I'm not sure about that, but as for Buddhist treasures, these chambers of commerce on the island may have them."

"Thank you very much."

The woman thanked him and left.

"Linglong, Wuduhai is too remote, and it's just an ordinary island. It's unlikely that there are Buddhist things in these places. Even if there are, they are ordinary things."

A voice in my head sighed.

"Let's look for him first, and avoid the limelight at the same time. Some powerful immortal forces in other continents are already hunting me down. Aunt Mei, you also know the news I inquired about in Baiyun Continent half a month ago. There is a Buddhist cultivator with the cultivation level of half a step to the Golden Core in Wuduhai, and he is also a loose Buddha. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If I can catch him, it may be of great benefit to me."

Shangguan Linglong said that in order to resolve the mark in her soul, she had been collecting Buddhist treasures from all over the place over the years, intending to see if Buddhist items could control the resentment in the mark.

Shangguan Linglong is trying every possible way to break through to the Golden Core realm.

A month ago, she accidentally heard someone say that there was a great monk in Wudu Sea, and that he was a free-spirited Buddhist who did not rely on any big power. Upon hearing the news, she hurried to Wudu Sea.

"Your friend surnamed Lu is from the Wuduhai Lu family. He just came back from the outside world and should still be in the family. When you come to Wuduhai, don't you go and see him?"

the woman asked.

"I'm not here for him."

Shangguan Linglong looked calm, as if she was talking about something insignificant.

"is it?"

There was something strange in the woman's tone.

Shangguan Linglong stopped walking, was silent for a while, and said sadly: "I haven't seen him for decades, and I am still so miserable. If I go to see him, will he...really still regard me as a friend?"

She was not sure. After all, she had first sealed him with a talisman, then failed to kill him and caused him to become possessed by a demon, and almost turned him into a puppet. How could all these be easily wiped out?

Although they said they were done with each other last time, did the other party really consider her a friend? She didn't know, or maybe he was still holding a grudge in his heart.

She didn't dare to be sure.

"Hey, it's up to you."

The woman shook her head and sighed.

Next, Shangguan Linglong continued walking.

He started asking each business building whether they had anything needed for Buddhist practice.

"Fellow Daoist, how could my small shop possibly have anything for Buddhist cultivation..."

"Fellow Daoist, our shop is small and weak, and Buddhist items are rare..."

"Fellow Daoist, Buddhist and Taoist things are not very useful to us cultivators, and there are few Buddhist cultivators in Wuduhai..."

Most of the commercial buildings on this island have been questioned.

"Daoyou, is that the same?"

A quarter of an hour later, inside a commercial building, Shangguan Linglong asked while holding a palm-sized golden fragment.

After visiting many companies, I finally got some results.

The thing in her hand was a fragment of a Buddhist treasure with traces of Buddha's charms still on it. She held it in her palm with an instinctive feeling of disgust.

The old man said regretfully, "Our shop only has this one Buddhist item. If you want more, you may have to go to big places like Xuanling Island or Yanbo Island. Those big places are full of treasures from all directions. They are dazzling and have everything you need."

Shangguan Linglong didn't say anything, but a trace of helplessness appeared on her face.

There are two big places in Wuduhai, Xuanling Island and Yanbo Island.

There is the Xuanling Sect on Xuanling Island, which is a much stronger sect than the Wanshou Sect. Yanbo Island is even more dangerous, and there is the Tianya Pavilion building a fairy city there.

She came to Wuduhai secretly and could only look for what she needed in remote places. Without the beads to hide her aura, it was too risky to go to those places.
