Chapter 561: Buddhist Golden Bead

He Pingsheng obtained the map.

The map of the Divine Crane Wang Zu.

He Pingsheng also understood a thing or two about the divisions within the Sky Fire Continent.

Because these basic, common-sense facts were recorded in the "Thousand Customs of the Spirit Realm."

There are five continents in the Spirit Realm.

On the Sky Fire Continent, the largest regional division is the "Tianpeng Diyu."

A so-called Tianpeng Diyu is territory controlled by a Demon Emperor or Human Great Emperor at the Mahayana Tianpeng Diyu.

And across the entire Sky Fire Continent, there are approximately ninety such "Imperial Domains."

Below the Tianpeng Diyu are the "Divine Kingdoms."

A so-called Divine Kingdom is territory controlled by a mighty figure at the Body Integration Stage.

Divine Kingdoms are subordinate to the Tianpeng Diyu!

And a royal clan like the Divine Crane Wang Zu is subordinate to a Divine Kingdom.

Of course, human factions like the neighboring "Heavenly Human Immortal Sect" also possess strength on par with a Demon "Wang Zu."

Whether it is the Heavenly Human Immortal Sect or the Divine Crane Wang Zu, they must have at least one mighty figure at the "Void Refinement Stage" holding the fort; otherwise, they would not be qualified to occupy territory and reign as kings.

The Elder of the Divine Deer Clan did not ask for money for the map.

It was considered a gift to He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng did not stand on ceremony; after thanking him, he left the Heavenly Feather Chamber of Commerce directly and headed toward the "Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan" marked on the map.

The Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan was not too far from Divine Crane City.

At He Pingsheng's current speed, he arrived in just one day.

It was different from what he had imagined.

The Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan was not a desolate and barren place; on the outskirts of the Murong Murong Tianyuan, a rather prosperous small city had even developed.

In the small city, a large number of Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators were coming and going.

He Pingsheng also walked inside.

Because the entrance to the Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan was located in the middle of the small city.

He Pingsheng had also learned a bit about the Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan while at the Chamber of Commerce.

The Murong Murong Tianyuan is an abyss.

Extremely deep!

Moreover, within the Murong Murong Tianyuan, hurricanes condensed from Yin-Sha energy constantly fly past.

Those hurricanes are almost everywhere; if one were to enter directly from elsewhere in the Murong Murong Tianyuan, even a Nascent Soul cultivator could potentially be torn to pieces by the hurricanes.

That is how terrifying it is.

Yet, the only entrance to the Murong Murong Tianyuan in the city was somewhat different.

Here, there is a massive Wind-Stabilizing Bead.

It stabilizes the hurricanes within a radius of a thousand zhang.

Therefore, only by walking into the Murong Murong Tianyuan from near this Wind-Stabilizing Bead can one avoid being affected by the hurricanes within the Murong Murong Tianyuan.

As for after walking into the Murong Murong Tianyuan, there is no need to worry, because after descending to a certain depth, the hurricanes within the Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan disappear.

Those hurricanes only exist on the surface of the uppermost layer of the Murong Murong Tianyuan.

He Pingsheng arrived at the very center of the small city.

He also saw the Murong Murong Tianyuan.

His spiritual sense surged forth, and everything within a radius of one hundred thousand zhang was seen clearly by He Pingsheng.

Hurricanes condensed from black Yin-Sha energy formed cyclones, spinning crazily as if they wanted to choose someone to devour.

And within this endless gale storm, there was a black bead, about ten zhang in size, floating at the very top of the countless Yin-Sha energy of the Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan.

Just like a piece of wood floating on the surface of water, it bobbed up and down, floating and sinking.

On that black bead, rays of golden light were cast in all directions.

Within the light, golden Buddhist "Swastika" symbols flowed out, suppressing the surrounding thousand-zhang distance.

Within the thousand-zhang range, no hurricanes swept past.

This was the entrance to the Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan.

And at the entrance to the Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan, hundreds of Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators were waiting.

He Pingsheng did not understand why they were not going in.

So, he asked, "This fellow Daoist... may I ask!"

"Is this Wind-Stabilizing Bead a Buddhist magic treasure?"

The person asked was a male cultivator at the tenth layer of the Nascent Soul Stage; this person was fat, wore a dark red Daoist robe, and his face was always brimming with a smile.

He looked very kind.

"Hehehe... greetings, fellow Daoist, that is exactly right!" the chubby red-robed Nascent Soul cultivator said: "Legend has it that a high monk from the 'Heavenly Buddha Tianpeng Diyu' once passed through here and used a prayer bead he had cultivated for eighteen thousand years to stabilize the hurricanes in this place!"

He Pingsheng was astonished!

Good heavens, a Buddhist expert indeed.

In this world, there is Buddhism.

Not only is there Buddhism, but it is said there are also demonic cultivators of the Demonic Sect.

But He Pingsheng never expected that among the Imperial Domains on the Sky Fire Continent, there was actually a "Heavenly Buddha Tianpeng Diyu."

Caring about these things was useless, so He Pingsheng asked again: "May I ask, fellow Daoist, why is everyone waiting here instead of going straight in?"

Two types of Rootless Grass grow in the Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan.

One type is fifth-tier; after swallowing it, one can break through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Stage.

One type is fourth-tier; after swallowing it, one can break through the bottleneck of the Golden Core Stage.

Therefore, those who come here to seek opportunities include not only Nascent Soul cultivators but also Golden Core cultivators.

The so-called Rootless Grass has no roots.

Nor does it grow on the ground.

Instead, it grows in the void of this endless Yin-Sha energy, floating everywhere with the flow of the Sha energy, and its color is almost identical to the Sha energy, merging into one.

"Cannot go in!" the red-robed Nascent Soul cultivator said: "Because the storm is coming!"

"Storm?" He Pingsheng said: "Isn't there a Wind-Stabilizing Bead?"

"That won't work either!" the red-robed Nascent Soul cultivator shook his head: "This Buddhist golden bead has been floating here for who knows how many tens of thousands of years; to put it bluntly, whether the holy monk who placed the Buddhist bead is still alive is hard to say!"

"All things in the world cannot withstand time!"

"As time passes, the Buddhist Dharma on this Buddhist golden bead is also fading!"

"It is said that a thousand years ago, this golden bead could stabilize the hurricanes for five days in one go, and then take two days to recover the Buddhist nature on it!"

"Nowadays, it can only stabilize it for three days!"

"And after stabilizing for three days, it must rest for four days!"

Once he said this, He Pingsheng understood.

The energy on the Buddhist bead has simply diminished, so every three days, it must self-repair for four days.

This...

In other words, it is currently about to enter a self-repair state.

At this time, it seems the Buddhist bead is still working, but in reality, it could stop at any moment.

If one were to rashly jump down at this time, and the Wind-Stabilizing Bead happened to stop, one would be torn to pieces by the hurricanes.

So everyone is watching.

Sure enough, while He Pingsheng was speaking, the Wind-Stabilizing Bead lost its effect.

With a 'whoosh', almost in an instant, countless hurricanes condensed around the Wind-Stabilizing Bead, wandering everywhere!

The massive hurricanes even blew out of the Nine Nether Murong Murong Tianyuan and toward the small city.

The cultivators nearby all lifted their feet and retreated in a hurry.

The great Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators, like commoners in a marketplace, created a commotion.

He Pingsheng naturally did not dare to show off and test the strength of the hurricanes.

Because there was no need.

Just wait!

Isn't it just waiting four days?

After four days, I will go in and take a look. ===== CHAPTER 562 =====
