In an underground ruins, there were broken Buddha statues and corpses of monsters lying on the ground everywhere.
There are also a large number of various murals related to Buddhist legends on the walls, but most of them are in dilapidated condition.
And Chu Qiguang was forming seals with his hands, refining a ball of Buddhist fire in front of him.
Jin Nu stood not far away, her ruby-like eyes staring closely at the figure in front of the fire.
I saw that the Buddha's fire was about the size of an ordinary person's head. Along with the changes in Chu Qiguang's handprints, it was turning into fire snakes and scurrying towards his body.
The flame gradually dimmed and dissipated with Chu Qiguang's breathing.
During this time, with Jinnu's eyes guiding the location of the Buddha's fire, Chu Qiguang tried his best to search for the Buddha's fire, killing several Buddhas on the way and some monsters blocking the way.
During this period, he also went back several times, or asked Qiao Zhi to arrange his business and management on his behalf.
He also called Chen Gang to Jinrong City to deliver a message to him and the Demon-Suppressing Division.
Although the several balls of Buddhist fire he found during this period were far less huge and vast than Li Yaofeng's.
But with the process of refining the Buddha's fire in his body, and interacting with his past cultivation accumulation, he began to undergo earth-shaking changes.
Chu Qiguang now felt a scorching heat in his heart, as if there was an extra ball of flame, and with every beat of his heart, a stream of heat spewed out.
Such a heart is like turning into a volcano, erupting with extremely powerful energy and blood power as it spurts out again and again.
Chu Qiguang estimated that the Buddha's fire had improved his physical body, at least increasing his energy and blood strength by more than 20%.
At the same time, as the blood passed through his heart again and again, he could feel that the energy and blood all over his body were also undergoing transformation.
It became thicker, hotter, and more viscous, like hot magma, rushing back and forth in his veins.
As the nature of qi and blood changed, he discovered that after qi and blood circulated under the skin, it was like a layer of inner armor covering the body, which could buffer all kinds of external attacks.
After Chu Qiguang started practicing hard kung fu, the toughness and strength of his physical body were greatly improved, and the effect of his kung fu was at least increased by about 30% compared to the original.
As for the time for meditating on the Sumeru King Sutra, it was also reduced from 630 days to 509 days.
In addition, the process of collecting Buddha's fire also imbued Chu Qiguang with a lot of knowledge about Buddha.
There are now 10 profound gifts, 6 dark gifts, and 2 cursed gifts in the Circle of Fools.
Feeling the progress he had made during this period, Chu Qiguang had to sigh in his heart: 'The realm of Taoism is indeed far beyond the ordinary and inhuman.
realm.'
'The closer I get to the Dao, the more I can feel the rapid improvement in strength.'
Chu Qiguang stopped for a rest, looked at Jin Nu and asked, "Have you found any other Buddha Fires?"
There was a flame burning in Jin Nu's eyes. She seemed to see through the endless darkness and matter, looking towards the Buddha's fire who didn't know how far away.
Ever since she followed Chu Qiguang to extinguish the fire, she has been searching for the Buddha's fire with these eyes.
At the same time, she was also searching the memories in her eyes, looking for more clues about the Buddha's fire.
But the search process was not smooth.
There are very few Buddhist fires on the earth, and the largest one is guarded by Li Yaofeng. The rest are either too few or too far away.
More Buddha fires exist underground.
Jinnu murmured: "Since the fire was extinguished, the Buddhist world has been gradually shrouded in darkness."
"But as the fire extinguisher faction fell apart."
"Some Buddhas fell into the devil's path, the rest went to the outer world, and most people also evacuated the Buddhist world."
"But the Fire Sect and the Sealing Sect have always remained in the Buddhist world."
"It is said that the Buddhas who sealed the fire took the fire deep underground."
"The demons and Buddhas of the Fire Sect pursued him."
"At this point...the fire no longer illuminates this world, and the Buddha is nowhere to be seen."
Chu Qiguang thought that it was precisely because the Buddha's fire was hidden deep underground that his sister could not be found before.
Just like the small group of Buddha fire in front of you, it is also in an underground ruins.
If it weren't for Jin Nu, they might never have found the Buddha Fire here.
Jin Nu continued: "The war in the underground world lasted for tens of thousands of days and nights."
"The demons and Buddhas snatched the flames during the battle and became more and more powerful and terrifying."
"The Buddhas who sealed the fire could only continue to flee deep underground."
Jin Nu's eyes were fixed on the ground beneath her feet, and she murmured: "In the underground world reflected in these eyes..."
"The fire has been mostly occupied by the demons and Buddhas."
"The sealed fire is extremely weak, like an afterglow in the darkness."
Chu Qiguang pinched his chin: "That is to say, if you want to put out the fire, you have to deal with the demon Buddha, right?"
The so-called demon Buddha is the Buddha who became a demon.
In Chu Qiguang's opinion, these demon Buddhas are probably more difficult to deal with than Li Yaofeng.
'Maybe I should go and steal Li Yaofeng's attention.'
He estimated that the amount of Buddha fire that Li Yaofeng was guarding should be enough for him to enter Taoism next.
Next, Chu Qiguang continued to refine the Buddha's fire, and not long after, the voices of Qiao Zhi and Zhou Yujiao rang in his ears.
Zhou Yujiao shouted: "Brother! Chen Gang is here. He said something happened."
Qiao Zhi said: "It seems that the Demon Suppression Division has asked you to come over for support and wants you to take action."
"Oh?" Chu Qiguang heard this and his eyes moved: "It just so happens that the Buddha's Fire is almost refined. I might as well kill more masters from the Tribulation Sect. It would be best to lure Li Yaofeng out."
"By the way, it can also be considered as a way to increase the reputation of the Hunter School."
Thinking of this, Chu Qiguang looked at Jin Nu beside him and said, "Put away this ball of Buddhist fire, but don't purify the knowledge inside."
"I understand." Jin Nu completely obeyed Chu Qiguang's words, walked to the ball of Buddhist fire, opened her arms, and embraced the flame.
In her arms, the Buddha's fire gradually extinguished, and finally disappeared from her chest.
Chu Qiguang walked out with Jinnu and suddenly asked: "By the way, can you leave the Buddhist world?"
Jin Nu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, as if she had never thought about such a thing at all: "Leaving... the Buddhist world?"
She hesitated for a moment, then finally said: "If this is what you want, I will follow your instructions."
Next, Chu Qiguang took Jin Nu all the way back to the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas, found the entrance to the Buddhist world, and returned to the abandoned temple in the barren mountains of Shuzhou.
Jinnu raised her head and looked at the blazing sun in the sky, bringing endless light, with a shocked expression on her face.
This is the first time she has seen the sun since she was born.
Zhou Yujiao curiously walked around Jinnu: "Sister, you are so beautiful. I will definitely be as beautiful as you in the future."

Chu Qiguang smiled contemptuously and said nothing.
Jin Nu looked at Zhou Yujiao blankly, as if she didn't know what to say.
Chu Qiguang said: "Okay, let me try first to see if I can refine the Buddha's fire here."
Mentioning the Buddha's fire, Jin Nu immediately returned to her original appearance: "Please touch the Buddha's fire in my body, and they will turn into your power again."
After successfully refining the Buddha's fire, Chu Qiguang left the ruined temple with Jin Nu.
