I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

[Randomly select start - lock world - lock world as "The Living Buddha Ji Gong".]

[The reincarnation portal is under construction...]

Staring at the characters before him, Qin Yao's mind stirred slightly, and the image of Chen Haomin in a tattered monk's robe flashed through his mind.

Ok……

Actually, it's not bad. At least in terms of appearance, it's much better than Mr. Guo's Ji Gong.

In terms of story, the plot of "The Living Buddha Ji Gong" is much better than that of "The Legend of Ji Gong," as can be seen from the success of the two series.

[The reincarnation portal has been successfully established. Would you like to begin the teleportation process immediately?]

Just as he was silently comparing the two works by Ji Gong, a system light symbol appeared before his eyes once again.

"Teleport!"

Qin Yao then calmed himself down and said in a deep voice.

"Shh."

In an instant, a white beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping his entire soul and will...

The dimension of the Living Buddha Ji Gong.

Under the cover of night, at the Li residence on Tiantai Mountain.

in the bedroom.

The handsome young man, who was lying on his side in bed with his blanket in his arms, suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and looked around. The first thing that caught his eye was a jade table with a pile of books on it.

Secondly, there are wooden shelves, on which are placed vases and various sundries. There are also many calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, which shows that this bedroom also serves as a study.

"What kind of demon dares to possess the reincarnation of me, the Dragon Subduer?"

Just as he was surveying the scene in the room, within his body and in his sea of ​​consciousness, a golden body that had been sitting cross-legged with its eyes closed suddenly opened its eyes and abruptly stood up.

“Venerable Dragon Subduer, I would like to make a deal with you.” Qin Yao silently withdrew his gaze and looked inward into his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Get out!"

With a loud shout, the Dragon-Subduing Venerable transformed into a golden dragon.

Qin Yao pursed his lips and immediately mobilized the spacetime laws within his soul, transforming them into countless golden chains that rushed towards the golden dragon from all directions.

"roar~"

The golden dragon roared to the sky, and golden waves suddenly surged from its body, destroying all the chains.

Qin Yao frowned slightly, never expecting that the Dragon Subduing Primordial Spirit would be so powerful. If he hadn't just advanced to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, he might have been suppressed by the other party.

In other words, the opponent's primordial spirit must be at least at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level!
Unbeknownst to him, the Dragon-Subduing Venerable was even more terrified, staring at the seemingly endless chains of law before him and exclaiming:

"Who exactly are you? The Roc Spirit? No, impossible. The Roc Spirit would only kill my reincarnation, it would never do something like possessing another body."

Qin Yao silently exerted all his strength, and the chains of law finally broke through the golden dragon's defense, trapping it within a golden, shimmering net: "I didn't intend to possess you; it was just a coincidence that I was transported into this body. I'll finish what I need to do..."

At this point, he suddenly realized: from locking onto the world of "The Living Buddha Ji Gong" to successfully descending into it, he hadn't seen any system tasks!
This inevitably reminded him of "The Legend of Nezha," where, after successfully possessing Yang Jian's body, he also didn't receive any system quests...

"What do you expect me to accomplish?" After realizing that he had no chance of escaping his confinement, the Dragon-Subduing Venerable finally softened his tone.

More importantly, by demonstrating that he could not escape the confinement, he determined that the other party's cultivation level was at least that of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and possibly even a Daluo Golden Immortal.

A powerful immortal, for no reason, comes to snatch my body... This is even more outrageous than an emperor stealing half a dirty cake from a beggar!

"I will leave on my own after I complete this training." Qin Yao exhaled softly and said seriously, "In exchange, I can grant you one wish."

Dragon Subduer Venerable: "..."

He never dreamed that one day he would hear someone say such things to him.

Normally, it is Venerable Dragon Subduer who decides whether or not to grant other people's wishes!

"What if I disagree?" After a long silence, the Dragon-Subduing Venerable asked coldly.

Qin Yao said sincerely, "I cannot leave this body before the training is over. If you disagree, then I will have no choice but to keep you here until the training is over. And I will not need to do anything for you."

The Dragon-Subduing Venerable's lips twitched slightly as he said, "If I agree, will you unseal me?"

Qin Yao shook his head: "That's not it... The main concern is that you might leave your body and go to the Buddhist realm to seek help from Buddha, which would be very troublesome for me. As I said before, in exchange, I can grant you one wish."

After a long silence, the Dragon-Subduing Venerable said in a deep voice, "Alright, my wish is for you to help me capture the Roc and bring it back to the Buddha to be punished. This is also my main task in this reincarnation in the mortal realm."

Qin Yao nodded: "Deal! By the way, what is the cultivation level of that Roc?"

He only remembered that in the original story, the eighteen Arhats joined forces to barely suppress the Roc, but he didn't know what level of cultivation the Roc possessed in this world.

The Dragon-Subduing Venerable said, "It is slightly stronger than the strength you are currently displaying, but only slightly."

Qin Yao then understood.

The Roc should also be at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, but I am only a newcomer to the Great Luo realm, while the other party is a veteran Great Luo with a deeper foundation.

"As long as they're not a whole realm apart, even if they're just a little bit stronger than me, I can make up for it in other ways."

“If you can find someone elsewhere, he might be able to as well,” the Dragon-Subduing Venerable said meaningfully.

Qin Yao smiled and didn't argue anymore: "By the way, if there are any inspections by the Buddhist sect, please cover it up."

“It can be covered up, but you must enter the Buddhist order; otherwise, even I can’t cover it up.”

The Venerable Dragon Subduer said solemnly, “Not to mention other gods and Buddhas, the other seventeen Arhats are definitely paying attention to this matter. If you do not enter the Buddhist order, they will surely use their own methods to help you understand your past life and enter the monastic life.”

Qin Yao was actually aware of this as well.

In the original drama, on Li Xiuyuan's wedding day, the Seventeen Arhats arrived uninvited and forcibly awakened Li Xiuyuan's memories of his past life, causing him to go crazy under the impact of the two lives. He ran away from the wedding on the spot, repeatedly saying that he wanted to become a monk.

As a result, the newlywed wife, Rouge, was regarded as an unlucky person by the Li family. Not only did they call her a jinx, but they also forcibly kicked her out of the Li family home, where she suffered all kinds of humiliation.

Rouge originally married into the Li family with high hopes, so how could she withstand such a change?

Unable to bear the humiliation any longer, she threw herself off a cliff in resentment, only to be saved by the Roc, thus falling into the demonic path...

Judging from this part of the story alone, the Seventeen Arhats were completely devoid of humanity. After all, if they had arrived just a few days earlier, this tragedy could have been avoided.

But they chose not to do that; they didn't care about a woman's future at all.

"I want to know what time period it is now?"

Thinking of this, Qin Yao suddenly asked the Dragon Subduing Venerable in front of him.

The Dragon-Subduing Venerable's expression faltered slightly: "What time point?"

Seeing that he didn't understand, Qin Yao asked directly, "Has your reincarnated self gotten married?"

The Dragon-Subduing Venerable said, "We are not yet married; the wedding date is tomorrow."

Qin Yao: "..."

For him, this point in time was already quite late.

Fortunately, it wasn't their wedding night, and the bride hadn't yet entered the family; otherwise, even he wouldn't have been able to change Rouge's tragic fate.

"Why didn't you stop this marriage?" Qin Yao suddenly asked after regaining his senses. "This is not something I should do," the Dragon-Subduing Venerable said calmly. "When the time comes, the Seventeen Arhats will descend to sever Li Xiuyuan's marriage."

Qin Yao frowned slightly: "The timing you're referring to is the wedding day? On the wedding day, the groom becomes a monk. How much harm would that be to the bride? Why does it have to be like this?"

The Dragon-Subduing Venerable paused slightly, then explained, "Perhaps the Seventeen Arhats were delayed by some matter."

Qin Yao scoffed: "Delay? And this delay has lasted for more than ten years?"

The Dragon-Subduing Venerable asked, puzzled, "Do you have a relationship with Rouge?"

Qin Yao shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's just that I can't stand it."

Dragon Subduer Venerable: "..."

Just because you don't like something doesn't mean you have to interfere.

Thinking of this, his expression changed slightly: "Benefactor, before the arrival of the Seventeen Arhats, I advise you not to do anything, otherwise, countless variables will inevitably be added."

Qin Yao resolutely refused: "That won't do. You are uncouth, undignified, and lack basic human decency. I cannot do that."

Jianglong was secretly alarmed: "What are you going to do?"

Qin Yao smiled and said, "Cultivation leads to death, while the Dao saves life."

Jianglong hurriedly said, "You're not saving her, you're harming her. Outsiders will definitely say that she's the one who killed Li Xiuyuan!"

“I know, that’s why I plan to let Li Xiuyuan die in a brothel, or even by a prostitute. He brought this upon himself, how can he blame the girl?” Qin Yao said.

Jianglong's cheek twitched.

It's too cruel.

This person tends to go to extremes in their actions, leaving no room for compromise. Doing business with them is neither a blessing nor a curse…

The next day.

In the eastern part of Tiantai Mountain, there is a quiet and elegant mansion.

A beautiful young woman, her face adorned with elaborate makeup and dressed in a bright red wedding gown, stood before a bronze mirror. Gazing at her reflection, she couldn't help but recall the resounding vow that young boy had made to her years ago:

"When I grow up, I will definitely marry you, and I want you to be my bride!"

Time flies so fast.

In the blink of an eye, she was about to marry into the Li family and fulfill this beautiful promise from her childhood.

"Miss, ma'am..."

Just as she was looking forward to the wedding procession from the Li family, a maid in a yellow dress suddenly came running. She didn't pay attention to her footing and even tripped over the threshold, falling heavily into her boudoir.

"Juan'er, are you alright?"

Rouge hurriedly went from the bronze mirror to the doorway and bent down to help the other person up.

Juan'er's eyes welled up with tears from the pain, but she didn't utter a word of complaint. Instead, she gripped her mistress's hand tightly and said, "Miss, something terrible has happened! Young Master, Young Master..."

"Xiuyuan? What happened to him?" Rouge's heart skipped a beat, and she asked urgently.

Juan'er finally caught her breath and said in a tearful voice, "The young master is dead. He died in a brothel. The news has spread throughout the city."

Rouge suddenly widened her eyes, staggered, and fell to the ground.

how could be?

The young man who kept saying he wanted to marry her actually died in a brothel.
"There are many unspeakable rumors that I cannot tell you."

Juan'er said softly, "But Miss, don't be too sad. Although this is not a good thing, it is a blessing for you. It's just one day, no, half a day. If you had married today, you would have been a widow."

rouge:"……"

That night.

On a ferry.

Qin Yao, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly heard a series of thunderclaps. He lifted the curtain and saw that the sky above the sea was filled with surging clouds, lightning, and thunder, a scene that was extremely exaggerated.

Strangely, the captain at the bow of the boat did not react at all, as if this strange phenomenon did not exist in his eyes.

"Li Xiuyuan, where are you going?"

A moment later, seventeen golden rays suddenly flew out from the thick clouds, transforming into seventeen golden Arhats, some standing and some lying down, each exuding a powerful aura.

Qin Yao slowly rose, walked out of the cabin, stood at the bow, and looked up at the seventeen figures, saying, "I'm going to become a monk!"

The boatman looked up with him and saw a clear blue sky without a cloud in sight. He assumed the boatman was speaking to him: "Young master, you look like you are rich and noble. Why would you be so foolish as to become a monk?"

Qin Yao lowered his eyes slightly and said with a smile, "You row your boat, I'm not talking to you."

Boat captain: "..."

There are only the two of us on this boat. If you're not talking to me, are you talking to a ghost?

Thinking this, he felt a chill run down his spine and muttered to himself, "Could it be that Young Master Li is having another episode?"

Why did you suddenly decide to become a monk?

In mid-air, an Arhat riding on the back of a golden tiger asked in a deep voice.

Qin Yao said, "It's because last night I realized my past and present lives and understood my own mission."

"What mission?" asked the Arhat Subduing Tiger with a strange expression.

Normally, it should be the seventeen Arhats who enlightened the Dragon-Subduing Venerable, helping him to understand his past lives, which would then lead him to abandon his family, embrace Buddhism, and enter the monastic life.

But now, how did it suddenly become that Li Xiuyuan took the initiative to become a monk?

If that's the case, then what enlightenment have those seventeen people possessed?
"Junior brother... no, I shouldn't call you junior brother. Why does Master ask a question he already knows the answer to?" Qin Yao asked from the bow of the boat.

The boatman was terrified. If it weren't for the fact that they were on the river and the boat wasn't his own, he would have run away long ago.

"Junior brother? You are the Dragon Subduer Venerable?" asked the Tiger Subduer Arhat in surprise.

Qin Yao nodded: "Right now, it's just Li Xiuyuan."

“That’s not right,” said the Arhat Subduing Tiger. “How did you manage to break free of your seal without our help?”

Qin Yao said, "Perhaps the capture of the Roc was in accordance with the will of Heaven, and thus I received the blessing of the Mandate of Heaven."

Tiger-Taming Arhat: "..."

"It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that this matter is too bizarre."

Among the seventeen Arhats, a sleeping Arhat spoke up: "To put it bluntly, if you cannot prove that you are the Dragon-Subduing Arhat, then we can only take you to see the Buddha and ask the Buddha to take a good look at you."

Qin Yao was prepared for this and silently said in his ancestral aperture, "Venerable One, it's up to you now."

The Dragon-Subduing Venerable secretly exhaled, sat cross-legged, and a golden dragon quickly sprang out from his body.

Qin Yao could not fully trust the other party, so he dared not directly unseal the golden dragon. Instead, he used chains of law to bind the golden dragon's body and brought it into his body through the ancestral aperture. Immediately, a phantom of the golden dragon appeared on his body...

"Gentlemen, can this prove it?" (End of Chapter)
