Chapter 385 Entering the mortal world in troubled times
"Three inches of Bodhi root?!"
"There is such a magical thing?!"
"The treasures in the world are inhabited by virtuous people. I am not a virtuous person! It's a trap!"
In the vast mountains.
Dozens of warriors with powerful auras all opened their eyes in anger, looking at the flying crossbows and arrows coming from the sky, mustering up their strength, concentrating their energy, and fighting to catch them.
Just after a few breaths passed, and when the energy and blood were boiling, another dozen strong men in black monk robes quietly jumped out and unleashed a thunderous strike.
Several people were crippled almost instantly.
The rest started a group fight and a chaotic attack.
The people present were almost all masters, and their energy and blood were connected together, almost half of the sky was reflected red. The light of swords and shadows were accompanied by the energy that had been condensed into substance. Ordinary mountains, rocks, and trees would almost shatter when touched.
Compared with the original rangers who were loose and brave, these big men in black monk robes had obviously undergone special training. Not only were they extremely skilled in martial arts, they were also brave and fearless of death, thus gaining the first-mover advantage.
It took almost no time to gain the upper hand.
However, the most eye-catching people on the battlefield were the two people fighting in the center.
To be precise, it was the big man with the bulging black monk's robe.
There are more than a dozen scars on his head that were randomly burned and embroidered with complex patterns that extend from the corners of his eyes to the entire cheek.
If you look carefully, a well-informed person will know that it is the Mysterious Epiphyllum in Buddhism.
When the flowers bloom, people will not live; when the flowers fade, people will die.
Symbolizes pure death.
This person is Yun Tan, the third protector of the Eighteen Black Buddhist Dharma Protectors who was ordered to come to Wankui's aid.
Originally, he was training troops in Yuzhou. When he got the news, he immediately came here with capable men.
As the chief instructor of the Black Buddhism's 100,000 monk soldiers, his strength is naturally extremely high.
Although he doesn't often take action, many people within the sect believe that he can at least be ranked among the top three among the eighteen protectors and the top ten among the sect, making him a true master.
However, it also has a shortcoming, that is, it likes to torture its opponents.
Torture them until they die, and then use the same torture methods on yourself to obtain the greatest pleasure.
Therefore, most of the disciples in the sect are very afraid of him.
"Situ Kong, the four-fingered star-catcher, is an expert at stealing. It is rumored that he can even enter the royal palace. I thought he was just a low-level martial artist, but I didn't expect that this star-catcher could be so ruthless!"
Yun Tan waved his hand, causing the air to vibrate. He directly grabbed the hand of the man who rushed over, looked at the silver fingers, and softly praised.
The moment he finished speaking, his hand as big as a cattail leaf fan was pressed down violently.
Click.
A sound similar to breaking bones.
Then there was a painful groan.
"Reaching for stars and picking hearts, it's better to say picking for hearts." Yun Tan suddenly let go of his hand and let it go. He looked at the painful man in front of him and said with a smile.
The person in front of him has an extremely well-proportioned figure and relatively high cheekbones, but his face is very ordinary. The only thing that catches the eye is his extremely slender fingers.
Situ Kong looked at his fingers that were almost crushed, with a look of hatred on his face. However, the eyes he looked at Yun Tan no longer had the same indifference as before, only fear remained.
No one knows that he, who has always been famous for his leg skills, has a star-catching hand that is hard to find an opponent in the same situation.
It is precisely because of this that he is proud and proud, and he regards the world as stupid donkeys.
Only then did he dare to fish in troubled waters despite knowing that there was a mixed bag of fish and dragons in Nanming County at this time.
What I didn't expect was that before I could even get a few treasures, I was tricked!
The strength of the person in front of me is at least several levels higher. He can persist for so long only because the other person wants to play with him!
"You are black Buddhists? If you dare to act like this, aren't you afraid of arousing public anger and causing disaster?!"
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people around him, and seeing Yun Tan with a fanatical smile on his face, Situ Kong felt even more desperate, but he still couldn't help but said coldly.
"Arouse public outrage? Incur disaster? It's okay if others say it to me. Why do you, a thief like a rat crossing the street, have the nerve to say so to me?"
Yun Tan didn't take it seriously, but laughed.
"Okay, if you have any other moves, show them quickly, otherwise all four fingers will be broken. That won't be fun."
Situ Kong choked, feeling ashamed and angry in his heart, but he still suppressed it and forced a smile:
"Wait a minute, Master, if I say that I admire Black Buddhism and want to join you, is there a chance for me to do so?"
Yun Tan was stunned for a moment, not expecting him to say this at all, and then smiled even more happily, "Of course."
As he spoke, he opened his hands and made a hug.
Situ Kong looked happy.
"However, the benefactor's fate will be in the next life, but it is impossible in this life." Suddenly, Yun Tan had a strange smile on his face, and the Xuan Epiphyllum on his cheeks seemed to bloom.
Situ Kong's expression suddenly froze.
Then his eyes were all cracked and his face was trembling.
The ten fingers on both hands, including the two broken ones, all turned silver-white.
There was even a silvery sheen on his face.
The energy that surged to the extreme began to escape from the body, and circles of invisible fluctuations began to spread like ripples.
The method of reaching for the stars is to reach for the stars with one hand.
At the Grandmaster level, he can only condense multiple superimposed star-catching powers on his four fingers, which is also the origin of his name.
At this time, facing an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, he activated his true power without restraint for the first time, covering his whole body with the power of reaching the stars.
"Do you really think you've got me?"
Situ Kong shouted angrily, and the air around him began to twist. His legs slightly bent, and suddenly turned into a silver line, and rushed towards Yun Tan.
The speed was so fast that only a phantom flashed in the air.
The distance of several feet disappeared in a blink of an eye, and he rushed in front of Yun Tan with a breath.
Then he put his five fingers together, making a bird's beak shape, and thrust it straight into his chest.
The silver air flow rolled back crazily, showing a whirlpool shape, with faint light spots appearing like falling stars, and rolled back into Situ Kong's hands with the air flow.
Bang!
There was a loud noise.
The smile on Xuan Tan's face froze before it faded away.
His body began to tremble like chaff, and he suddenly fell backward.
But just when Situ Kong felt relieved, Xuan Tan, who was about to fall to the ground, froze up, and then moved up little by little...
Finally he froze.
The corners of the mouth were raised upward, and finally split into an extremely exaggerated arc.
"It really hurts, but happiness is always short-lived, and the black Buddha is eternal!"
At the end of his speech, a fanatical look appeared on his face.
"Pilgrimage to the Black Buddha!"
A roar.
Black lotuses appeared on his arms for no apparent reason, and a strange wave appeared.
He opened his hands for an instant, and then suddenly closed them, as if he was prostrating.
The palms as big as cattail leaf folded together and struck down, like a giant ax driving through a mountain. It fell suddenly and hit Situ Kong's head directly, and then the momentum continued unabated and he was pressed to the bottom.
The surging star-catching energy is like tissue paper, unable to resist at all.
The physique that the Grandmaster Realm Sutra and Yi Jin had always cultivated was completely shattered by this blow.
The whole person split into two pieces instantly!
Blood, water, and pieces of flesh splashed everywhere, and the corpse fell to the ground.
"After all, I won't be able to get on the stage."
Xuan Tan casually shook off the remaining blood on his hand and sighed softly.
Then he nonchalantly began to break his fingers one by one.
The clicking sound continued like the sound of firecrackers.
All ten fingers are in a weird bent state.
But not long after, nourished by the strong Qi and blood, he slowly returned to his normal state.
Xuan Tan shook his head boredly and looked around.
The rest of the people around them have almost solved it.
Although the revelation of this incident did attract many masters, the worst ones were the Six Fu Realm warriors who came to look for opportunities.
But it is still easy to clean up if you just sit back and wait for the problem, whether you are calculating or not.
Today's ambush has been completed no less than ten times.
After all, they know the general direction of the earthquake, and they just need to set ambush in advance.
only
To the back...
Xuan Tan looked into the distance.
My eyes seemed to be passing through the vast mountains and forests, crossing the vast rivers, and arriving at a majestic Buddhist cave.
"Get to the next location as soon as possible, the water is going to rise."
…………
The whistling wind blew wildly in my ears.
High in the sky, Lin Mo stood on the black eagle, with himself as the center, and within a range of three feet, there was chaotic airflow in the shape of an inverted bowl, surrounding it.
Bang! Bang!
As the eagle gallops, the chaotic airflow surrounding the body is like an invisible wall, but blood flowers bloom on it from time to time.
Lin Mo's face was expressionless, and he ignored the sudden bursts of blood.
Just smelling the increasingly strong smell of blood, he finally frowned.
Just like the transitivity of the food chain, each level of transit carries losses.
Compared to warriors who still need to eat meat and take elixirs, the mountain beasts raised naturally in the mountains will naturally benefit more.
He had already expected this.
But even so, the further you go to the three counties of Yueshan, the changes will be too great.
Just in this high altitude, there are an absurd number of unknown flying beasts.
Although most of them are only about the strength of the Destiny Realm, their density is so high that the impact and destructive power they cause is no less than a Grandmaster's blow.
As for land
Lin Mo lowered his head, his martial arts eyes flashing.
The colorful sky and earth faded into gray.
The forest sea is rolling, and the vast mountains and forests are showing their ancient vitality in this world.
The three big rivers, like big snakes, wind around the forest, converge at one place, and go far south, flowing to the end of sight.
In the unknown depths of the mountain, there are several bursts of bursting energy and blood, connecting heaven and earth under Martial Arts Sky's eyes.
Even now, he actually feels a little bit of a sense of crisis.
"Is this the movement of leisure and the power of vitality tide? No wonder Yu Xuanji used Feng Shui formation to isolate the world."
Lin Mo frowned and muttered to himself.
He has seen a lot of things.
The original Yangtide in Kuwahara Mountain replenished nearly half of his accumulated red energy in one fell swoop. It was so miraculous that he naturally learned a lot of relevant information.
Only when you really see the uncontrolled yangchao can you understand how terrifying it is.
People fight with others, with the earth, and also with the sky.
Similar to a cycle.
"If this is really the case, you can imagine how powerful the Qianyu Realm is."
Looking at the vast land, thoughts flashed through Lin Mo's mind.
The emergence of Yangtide, originally from a place with high concentration, flows to a place with low concentration, which can be explained by osmosis.
Just imagine, today's Chi County is in such a situation, what about the Qianyu Realm as the source?
"So this is actually one of the reasons why the opponent has the upper hand."
Lin Mo no longer thought about it. For now, if the sky fell and there was a tall man holding it up, he didn't need to think so much.
But when he comes into contact later, no one can say accurately who will win and who will lose.
As for now
He pulled out a topographic map from the empty stone ring.
It is a detailed map obtained by Lin Mo as a Taoist scholar when he left the clan.
Not only did they have all the information about the forces, but they also had the location of the secret agents in various parts of the Lingtai Sect.
Nanming County is large, with a vast territory and sparsely populated areas. If you are unfamiliar with the place, it is naturally best to find some local forces.
It just so happens that the Lingtai sect of the Lingtai sect also has several temples here.
The sun sets in the west and night falls.
Nanming County belongs to the northern part of Huaizhou and is mountainous and forested.
This is the Chinese New Year, which is the coldest time of the year.
Even in the city, ordinary people have to wrap themselves in several paper clothes to keep out the cold, let alone in the mountains.
However, it is also at this time that temple business is at its best.
Pray for good luck and good luck during the new year.
Many people are willing to climb a mountain and worship Buddha at the beginning of the new year.
Of course, whether you are worshiping the wooden clay sculptures in the temple or your own wishes and desires is another matter.
However, this year, the Gaoshan Temple in Nanze County closed its gate early at this time.
This is the backyard of the temple.
In the not-so-large hall, the oil lamp gave off a not-so-bright flame.
Enshrined in the center of the hall are the eight guardian Asuras with wide eyes.
Under the flickering firelight, the ferocious Buddha statue's expression becomes more serious, and there seems to be a fierce light in the eyes, as if it chooses people to devour.
However, he fell down and sat on the lotus again, holding the Aquarius Seal with his four arms, showing his compassion.
A dozen monks were sitting in front of the Buddha statue, all wearing thin monk robes, showing their bulging muscles, and reciting scriptures seriously.
After a long time, it's over.
"Our Gaoshan Temple has a long tradition, and its origins can even be traced back to the two highest mountains in Huaizhou. Therefore, as long as you practice the Four-Armed Mysterious Technique well, you will naturally have a bright future."
There was a fat monk sitting in front, with a fat head and big ears, just like Maitreya Buddha. After chanting the sutra, he stood up, looked at the disciples who started to practice meditation with their legs crossed, and said leisurely.
As he spoke, he clasped his hands behind his back, as if reminiscing about the past.
"Second Master is bragging again."
After the disciples who were practicing below heard this, the older young monk couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
These words have been heard almost every ten days since he entered the temple to practice.
If it were true, forget it, but it just doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
There are only a few fortune-telling masters in Gaoshan Temple, but there are only three or four big cats and kittens. If you say the inheritance lasts for a long time, who would believe it?
After eight years, I am naturally speechless.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the little novice behind him also started to laugh uncontrollably.
"Yuanzhen, are you itchy again?!"
Shouquan, who had a sharp ear and eyesight, naturally heard it. Seeing that the atmosphere he had finally created was gone, he stared and said in a deep voice:
"Your master, how could I still lie to you?"
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and said, "If you guys hadn't failed me, I would have gone back to the mountains to enjoy my blessings!"
As he spoke, Shouquan's voice also lowered, with a hint of sadness in his words.
Because his master scolded them the same way back then.
"Well, okay, isn't it just to strive for success? It won't be long before I am determined to break through the qi and blood realm. If the qi and blood are not enough, the five internal organs will be affected. If the five internal organs are not enough, the six internal organs will be affected.
Sooner or later I will send you to some mountain to enjoy happiness."
Yuan Zhen originally wanted to lift the bar, but looking at the fat monk with a sad look on his face, he felt a little distressed in his heart, so he simply revealed his hidden strength.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Shou Quan's fat face suddenly became happy and excited.
But when the words came to his mouth, the taste changed again, and he snorted coldly:
"You are really young, but your tone is not young. What does it mean to establish a destiny? A master is a hero! You are far from good!"
Seeing the unconcerned Yuan Zhen and the other excited disciples, he sighed:
"Forget it, pack some things tomorrow and let's go down the mountain."
"Going down the mountain?"
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused a shock.
"Why don't you go down the mountain? During this period, there are more and more people in the world, and the beasts in the mountain are getting more and more evil. It's better to go and join your rich relatives, and it will be a good time for you to recognize them."
Shouguan said while twisting his rosary beads.
"The world is really going to be in chaos. Alas, the world will be in chaos."
