At the same time, the Buddha Tathagata who was far away in Lingshan also raised his eyebrows, and then glanced at the monks sitting down.
It can be seen that no one has a strange look on their face, so they can't help but shake their heads and sigh.
However, Xue Tianqing knew nothing about this. He just saw Wu Tian's mind wavering and had an idea before he remembered Huineng's four famous sayings.
Seeing Wu Tian steady his mind, Xue Tianqing breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned his gaze back to the hole with black flames.
Although the fire in the Flame Mountain is the fire of the heart, the black flame is the real fire of the Nine Netherworlds. There is no underworld atmosphere here. Where do these flames come from?
Xue Tianqing wanted to come closer several times to find out what was going on, but when she saw Wutian who was concentrating on tempering his weapon, he reluctantly endured it.
Once something happens due to him, the junior brother's hard work will be in vain. It is better to wait until he has finished refining the weapon.
At this time, Wutian had abandoned all distracting thoughts and only had two hammers in his eyes.
Under the burning of the flames, the fog on the surface of the sledgehammer gradually became thinner.
However, the disappearing mist was not volatilized by the flames, but penetrated into the inside of the sledgehammer under the burning.
Although the sledgehammer looks unchanged from the outside at this time, when forced into it, the dragon energy is blending with the iron, causing it to undergo a subtle change.
After about half an hour, the last trace of fog surrounding the sledgehammer finally disappeared.
At this time, the double hammers not only sparkled with golden light, but also had lightning flashing on the surface, accompanied by crackling sounds.
After almost a cup of tea, when the lightning gradually subsided, Long Wutian was ready to control the sledgehammer to go to the next place where the flames seemed to be more intense.
Who would have thought that before he could make a move, a purple lightning bolt suddenly lit up in the clear sky and struck directly on the sledgehammer.
Although there was only one blow, the sledge hammer was so powerful that smoke was rising, and then it fell straight towards the Flame Mountain.
Wutian was shocked when he saw this and rushed towards the sledgehammer.
Xue Tianqing in the sky saw this and said loudly: "No!"
But when he said the words, Goten had already reached under the sledgehammer and reached out to hold it in his hand.
Immediately afterwards, the sledgehammer, still emitting green smoke, suddenly lit up with a purple light, knocking Long Wutian away.
Fortunately, Xue Tianqing had already arrived at Wutian's side and held him in her arms: "Can your body be able to withstand the power of the heavenly tribulation? I don't even dare to, let alone you."
After waiting for a long time for no response, Xue Tianqing looked down and found that Long Wutian had passed out.
When the snow was clear and the sky was clear, the speed of the falling hammers was getting faster and faster. When they were still a hundred feet away from the mountain, the friction between the sledgehammers and the heat waves emanating from the Flame Mountain had already produced fire.
Looking at the twin hammers trailing flames, Xue Tianqing couldn't help but touch her chin: At first glance, she thought it was a spaceship returning from outer space.
The next moment, an inexplicable feeling suddenly flashed through Xue Tianqing's mind, and then he hugged Long Wutian and moved back.
Less than ten miles after Xue Tianqing flew out, the sledgehammer, which had almost transformed into a meteor, had already hit the Flame Mountain hard.
The next moment, there was only a loud noise, and then countless smoke and dust rose up from where the sledgehammer hit the ground, instantly covering the nearby mountains.
As the smoke and dust rose into the sky, the strong wind mixed with heat waves and flames quickly spread in all directions.
Xue Tianqing was shocked when he saw this, and immediately urged the cloud head to go towards the mountain pass where Sanzang and others were. At the same time, he used his magic power to shout: "Bajie, Wujing, take Master to a safe place quickly."
In fact, there was no need for Xue Tianqing to tell him. When the smoke and dust rose into the sky, Sha Monk was ready to drag Sanzang away to the mountains.
It's just that Sanzang was worried about the safety of Xue Tianqing and Wu Tian, so he insisted on staying where he was.
It wasn't until he saw Xue Tianqing coming towards him that Tang Sanzang finally let go of his heart and hid in a cave not far away with the support of Bajie and Sha Seng.
As soon as the three people and one horse stood still, Xue Tianqing also appeared in front of them.
After handing Wu Tian into Bajie's hands, Xue Tianqing's hands were constantly forming seals, and then a seemingly transparent but hazy round shield protected everyone.
As soon as the shield was raised, everyone felt a sudden tremor, and then the rocks on the top of the cave began to fall down.
Just when Sanzang thought he was about to be buried alive, the cave finally stopped shaking and the surroundings returned to calm.
After removing the shield and helping Sanzang out of the cave, Xue Tianqing smiled bitterly: "It's all my fault for this matter. I didn't explain it clearly to Wu Tian just now, otherwise this disaster wouldn't have happened."
Sanzang looked at Wutian in Bajie's arms with a worried look on his face: "Is Wutian okay?"
"Master, don't worry, he is fine."
"Then why aren't you awake yet?"
"Master, just now Wu Tian was burdened by a catastrophe. If it weren't for the strength of his physical body, he would have been wiped out long ago."
When Sanzang heard this, his heart started to worry again: "Then how do you say he's fine?"
Xue Tianqing smiled again: "Breathing steadily, everything is as usual. What do you think can happen to him?"
After finishing speaking, Xue Tianqing hurried to the end of the mountain road at the corner and looked at the Flame Mountain in the distance without saying a word.
When Sanzang and others arrived at Xue Tianqing's side, they all opened their mouths in surprise.
I saw that almost half of the Flame Mountain that was towering into the clouds just now disappeared, and a huge gap appeared in the middle of the remaining mountain.
The huge explosion forcibly opened a valley connecting the east and west in the middle of the Flame Mountain, although the valley was filled with gravel.
At this moment, Sha Monk suddenly pointed at the Flame Mountain and said, "Master and brother, why is there no damage at all?"
Following the direction of Sha Monk's finger, Sanzang and Bajie discovered that a few miles north of the valley, there was a small mountaintop that had not been affected in any way and still stood there.
It's just that the mountains around the top of the mountain have either collapsed or disappeared, making it look particularly abrupt, like a chimney, with black flames constantly spitting out.
Xue Tianqing had seen that place a long time ago, but at this moment he was extremely nervous, because the Nine Nether Fire that originally erupted from the cave entrance and disappeared was now rolling down the mountain like a flood.
If it is not stopped, it may not be long before the entire Flame Mountain will be enveloped in the Nine Nether Fires.
It is conceivable that after occupying the Flame Mountain, the Nine Nether Fire will definitely extend its tentacles in all directions.
At this time, Xue Tianqing somewhat understood why those golden flames existed, but he didn't know who set up this situation when, because according to Wu Jing, the Flame Mountain had existed since the beginning of the world.
But this made him even more confused. Although the Nine Nether Fire was domineering, it could not make waves in front of the underworld. In this case, why did the people who planned it go to so much trouble?
Thinking of this, Xue Tianqing said to Sanzang without looking back: "Master, you and your junior brothers will take a rest here first. I am going to the underworld."
But before Sanzang could answer, Wutian, who had just woken up, shouted, "Where's my sledgehammer!"
