Chapter 75: The Rhapsody of Epang Palace

  "At least I'm immortal now, even if I don't look great. But the benefits are numerous!" Zhou Qing was also delighted in her heart.

  Unlike the Dharma body, the second yuan Shen can enhance the power of true yuan and cast spells, equivalent to a second self. However, it has no direct connection with the main body. The original intention of the second yuan Shen is to ward off disasters and resist heavenly tribulations. When the main body dies, the second yuan Shen also disappears.

  However, when the second yuan Shen is destroyed, the main body only suffers damage to its divine consciousness and can recover soon. The Dharma body is completely different. It can be said that Zhou Qing's current four-faced eight-armed six-zhang golden body is his true self, while his original flesh body has become something like a second yuan Shen, even if his original flesh body were destroyed, it would have no relation to Zhou Qing.

  Of course, Zhou Qing wouldn't abandon his flesh body. Not to mention other reasons, now that the Dharma body is just formed and not yet solidified, it's far from reaching the level of infinite changes and indestructibility. It still needs further cultivation. When facing enemies, its power has increased greatly, but it's not convenient to use.

  "Give me a break!" Zhou Qing decided to use brute force after checking multiple times without effect. Now that his Dharma body was fully formed, his true yuan was abundant, and he could wield the Blood Blade with even greater ease. The power was also stronger than before by a whole level. A bloody glow burst out like a whip, directly dispersing the surrounding chaotic energy. However, no matter how far the bloody glow extended, the surroundings were still shrouded in chaos, as if this world was still in its primordial state. "Could it be that this is just a small world?" Zhou Qing wondered in his heart.

  In the midst of the array, the powerful one can indeed open up space on its own. The two instruments, Micro Dust Array, are said to be able to turn the land of micro dust into a vast universe! Being trapped in the array is like being in a world within, no matter how many heavenly methods you have, you will be powerless. Zhou Qing was really helpless and had no choice but to use the bottom box method to break the array. The twelve-faced golden command flags were thrown out and floated in mid-air. Zhou Qing even felt the power of the Heavenly God's wrath, and he was overjoyed, grasping it with a bit more force. The twelve command flags rotated rapidly, and Zhou Qing's hands continuously pinched the method incantation, effortlessly and smoothly. Suddenly, twelve blood lights flashed out of thin air, which was the power of the Heavenly God's wrath brought about by breaking open the void with this array method. The twelve blood lights entwined like giant pythons, exploding! As Zhou Qing spat out a word from his mouth, the twelve command flags and the twelve blood lights exploded simultaneously. The massive explosive force actually blasted a black hole in the entire chaos, and Zhou Qing's body flashed and disappeared into the black hole, vanishing into this world before the dawn of creation.

  The surroundings were blurry, and Zhou Qing suddenly felt a jolt, and before his eyes was a bright light, as if he had returned to another world. Zhou Qing floated in mid-air, with white clouds drifting by, gentle breeze blowing, and the sun shining brightly above. Below him stretched a vast expanse of palaces for hundreds of miles, with pavilions, towers, and temples, their eaves and corners intricately carved, with a five-step staircase leading to every pavilion, and a ten-step staircase leading to every temple. Two great rivers flowed from dozens of miles away, their courses altered by human excavation, bringing water into the palaces that stretched for hundreds of miles. "What a wonderful place with excellent feng shui, where two dragons coil around a pearl! The construction of these palaces secretly conforms to the principles of heaven and earth, the art of yin-yang and the five elements, the mechanism of Zhou Tian and Yi numbers, and the layout of the nine palaces and eight trigrams. All are contained within, with arrays within arrays, interconnected and interlocking. The designer of these palaces is truly a master of array methods, the ancestor of Yi numbers."

  Zhou Qing saw this palace and was not surprised, but instead praised it. "This place seems a bit familiar! It's quite familiar!" Zhou Qing looked at it for a long time and felt a sense of déjà vu, but couldn't remember coming here before. Just as he was puzzled, a sudden wave of divine consciousness swept towards him, making him feel like his clothes had been stripped off, exposing his entire body to others. The divine consciousness even probed into Zhou Qing's body, examining every detail. Zhou Qing was shocked and quickly revealed his true form, a six-zhang golden giant, enveloping himself in a ball of golden light that firmly blocked the divine consciousness from entering his body!

  "Huh!" A puzzled voice came from the distant palace, and a strong gust of wind suddenly blew up. Zhou Qing's eight arms danced wildly, tightly protecting his body. The scene changed rapidly, and when the wind stopped, Zhou Qing fell onto a high altar in the palace. This altar was incredibly wide, stretching tens of meters in all directions, towering into the clouds. It was made of an unknown material, neither gold nor iron nor wood. Standing on this altar, looking down at the continuous palaces below, the green mountains and clear waters, the red walls and tiles, it felt even more impressive than viewing from high above.

  Why, however, did Zhou Qing not have the interest to appreciate this beautiful scenery? In his heart, dozens of thoughts flashed by rapidly. "Two rivers converge and flow into the palace walls. Every five steps there is a pavilion, every ten steps a tower; the corridors wind around, the eaves are high and steep; each one hugs the terrain, hooks and angles. Winding and twisting, swirling and whirling, like beehives and whirlpools, countless thousands and millions of them. The long bridge lies on the waves, what dragon is this? The winding path runs through the air, what rainbow is this?" A passage of ancient text flowed through his mind, Zhou Qing's spirit flashed with insight, and he shouted out loud, "This is the Epang Palace! No wonder I had a familiar feeling!" However, Zhou Qing did not know that his four mouths were speaking simultaneously, their voices rolling out in waves, even the white clouds in the sky were shaken by these sound waves, tumbling about, no longer able to block the bright sun hanging high in the sky. The soft sunlight shone down, reflecting off Zhou Qing's golden body, and the entire altar was filled with a dazzling golden light, unspeakably holy!

  "Not bad, this is indeed the Epang Palace! What are you?" Out of thin air, a man appeared, nine feet tall, with a handsome face and sharp facial features that seemed to have been carved by a knife or an axe, revealing a resolute character. Zhou Qing hastily shook his body and withdrew his true form, only to see this towering middle-aged man standing three zhang away from him, of course, this was from the perspective of Zhou Qing's mortal vision, but if viewed from the perspective of Zhou Qing's dharma body, this person was just a crawling infant.

  The middle-aged man wore a feathered robe and a star-studded crown, his presence was ethereal and otherworldly. He seemed like a celestial being! Zhou Qing hastily said: "Immortal sir, you've misunderstood, this is my external incarnation technique from my cultivation." Instead, I'm the one who's disturbing you!" Zhou Qing performed a standard Daoist bow. In her heart, she thought to herself: "How did I end up in Epang Palace? Isn't this place supposed to be where the vengeful spirits of Changping are suppressed? Could it be that the rumors were wrong? But it seems like everything is related to the Qin Emperor! This person can't be a mortal, his aura is completely unfathomable, and I don't know the depth of his cultivation. I should still show some respect, after all, it's said that the Qin Emperor gathered many high-ranking officials! But wasn't Epang Palace burned down by Xiang Yu? How did it appear here, could this be an illusion?" A string of questions left Zhou Qing with a huge headache!

  "Immortal? Ha! A certain Bai Qi has risen! Not an immortal!" The middle-aged man let out a cold snort, and with a wave of his hand, the white clouds in the sky gathered together again, blocking out the sunlight. Zhou Qing's entire body trembled with fear, shocked beyond measure: "Bai Qi? You're actually the Killer God Bai Qi!" Even though Zhou Qing was quick-witted, he couldn't have imagined that the middle-aged man floating before him was actually the legendary Killer God Bai Qi! It was as if a heavenly demon had suddenly become a Buddha.
