Taming the Demon: A Guide to Raising a Great Sage

293 Chapter 292, after ascension

As the tribulation thunder fell more and more.

Yan Tianying's breath became more ethereal and lofty, and the feeling of "not belonging to the world" became stronger.

But his speed is also getting faster and faster.

When the seventh tribulation thunder fell, he almost flashed at the same time as the Demon Buddha, and he could have blasted the Demon Buddha with a single punch.

But he held back his fist for the time being.

Because Mo Buddha caught another person and threw him.

Yan Tianying caught that person, looked into her tear-filled eyes, although she had a thousand words in her heart, she had no time to pour them out.

He could only gently wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said:

"Both Qiankun and Bailong have been severely injured by me. Given their pity on their lives and their suspicion, they should not dare to mess around in the short term, but they still have to be careful. Take Xiao Shen and Xiao Mu to Wanfamen for protection first, and the others will also disperse. Moved underground as originally planned. Sorry..."

After leaving these words, when the eighth tribulation thunder struck, he had disappeared again.

Watching Yan Tianying's figure disappear, Master Wanfa bit his lips tightly, took a deep breath, held back the tears that were about to burst into his eyes, first sent a remote message to Qin Qing who was staying with Shen Lang and Mu Qingxue, and then resolutely Fly towards the location where everyone in the Shencatch Hall is.

She didn't know if she could see him again in this life.

She only knew that since he had expressed his last wish in the world, then she must fulfill it for him.

Mofo originally thought that he could continue to use the city or the people Yan Tianying valued as a shield, and drag it until the ninth tribulation thunder fell, so that he could see Yan Tianying's ascension to immortality.

But when he flashed out again, a fist surrounded by thunder and lightning came towards him with the terrifying force of shaking the void, and the fist slammed into his face.

After the eighth tribulation thunder, Yan Tianying was able to predict the location of the Demon Buddha in advance, blocked it first, and finally succeeded in blasting the third punch.

Boom!
The world shook violently, Mo Buddha's face twisted, wrinkled, and cracked, and the eyeballs burst out of the eye sockets with thick black smoke, and collapsed again, turning into the tiniest blood foam.

Then the whole head was also torn apart, all kinds of fragments splashed in all directions, and when they flew, they continued to disintegrate and shatter with a roar and explosion.

The violent punch distorted the space, as if hitting the water, shaking the space out of layers of ripples and folds, which spread downward from the face of the Demon Buddha.Wherever the folds of space passed, the Demonic Buddha's demonic body was distorted and collapsed, disintegrating into fine dust.

Just this punch.

The Demon Buddha's hundred-foot-long demon body began to disintegrate from the head to the feet.

After one punch, the sky is clear and the earth is clear, and the incarnation of the Demon Buddha no longer exists.

Even the dust and devilish energy after the devil's body collapsed were swept away by the punch, decomposed into harmless vitality, and merged into the heaven and earth.

After all, the Demon Buddha could not hold out until the ninth tribulation thunder passed, and saw the situation above the nine heavens after the calamity cloud.

And when Yan Tianying smashed the demon Buddha with one punch, the ninth tribulation thunder also fell from the sky, piercing his heavenly spirit like a divine sword.

After the robbery thunder, the robbery cloud dissipated.

A jade-colored light beam full of mysterious charm fell down from the crack in the sky and enveloped Yan Tianying.

Under the shroud of that light beam, Yan Tianying couldn't help himself, squeezed and pulled by Pei Mo Nengyu's power, and flew towards the crack in the sky behind the Jieyun.

The force that squeezes him is the repulsion of heaven and earth to him, and it seems that heaven and earth are "giving birth" to a mature fetus.

And that traction force comes from above the nine heavens.

The two worlds work together to send Yan Tianying to transcend the mortal world and ascend to the Nine Heavens. Even with Yan Tianying's strength at this time, he is irresistible, and even if he wants to stay for a few more breaths, he cannot do it.

He could only regretfully take a look at the world of mortals that made him miss so much, then looked at the real Wanfa, and said softly:
"I will wait for you above the nine heavens..."

With his current state, he has been able to understand many secrets of the world. Of course, he knows that the end of the Dharma is coming, and this world will eventually become a real ordinary world. He, Yan Tianying, is likely to be the last one to successfully overcome the catastrophe. Way out of the way.

But he firmly believed that he would be able to reunite with Master Wanfa.

Because in this world, there is a variable.

Even though that variable is not enough to change the general trend of the end of the world, he will not be bound by the end of the world either.

Yan Tianying believed that he would be able to create miracles.

When Yan Tianying rose higher and higher, and finally, with the help of the power of heaven and earth, and led by that bright beam of light, he came to the crack in the sky.

In every corner of Dongtu, all cultivators above the third rank, regardless of warriors or Dharma cultivators, saw the scene of his detachment.

At the same time, a melancholy sigh echoed in the ears of everyone who could see this scene.

Ugh……

……

seven days later.

The emperor decreed that Yan Tianying could be conferred the title of "Loyalty and Zhenguo God, Weiyuan Zhentianjun", and designated the day of his ascension as "Yan Tianjun's Birthday". The temple also allows the common people to set up a temple to worship "Yan Tianjun".

same day.

The "truth" of the tragedies in Fengwu, Kunxian, Jiuzhen and other nine prefectures was also announced to the world in the form of imperial decree, claiming that the case was led by the Demon Buddha Heilian, and that the Dawei Bodhisattva united with some Buddhist scum to cooperate from inside and outside to implement the layout.

Once the "truth" was announced, the whole world shook.

Because the Demon Buddha had done similar "feats" in the previous dynasty, the people all over the world believed in it.

As a result, Hei Lian became the top demon in the world, and the names of veteran demon gods such as Spider Mother were left far behind by Hei Lian.

In many stories created by storytellers and novelists, no matter who is responsible for the bad things, the mastermind behind the scenes and the final boss all become Hei Lian.The vicious devil who does evil things is either bewitched by Hei Lian, or he is a member of Hei Lian's sect.

The fearsome name of the Black Lotus Demon Buddha spread throughout the world, while the Buddhist sect became notorious and once became a street rat.After the reputation of Buddhism fell to the bottom, the emperor also took the opportunity to send secret guards to search a large number of famous temples and ancient temples, which greatly enriched a handful of internal funds.

half a month later.

The emperor once again decreed to announce to the world that the Shenchuitang was officially abolished.

The original task of arresting murderers and thieves in the Shencatching Hall was handed over to the Ministry of Punishment.

The task of supervising officials and nobles is in the charge of Yushitai—a group of dignified civil servants in Yushitai can do nothing but listen to the news, and they are responsible for supervising officials and nobles. Doesn’t it mean that there is no supervision? It is reduced to a tool of party struggle.

As soon as this decree came out, the court hall rejoiced, all the officials presented their praises to the saints, and the nobles and nobles were overjoyed.

In the rivers and lakes, gangsters, green forests, and cults also rushed to tell each other and set up wine to celebrate. Only a few righteous sects and upright knights sighed and called out for injustice.

But there is no way, the Shenchuangtang, which has existed since the founding of the country, is already "out of date" in the eyes of today's emperors, officials, nobles and even many powerful people who use military force to violate the law.

If there was no Yan Tianying, Shenchuangtang would have been abolished as early as ten years ago.

It was Yan Tianying who, with his own strength, maintained the Shenchuangtang for another ten years after his succession.

Now that he has soared into the sky, transcended the world, and became a true fairy of Xiaoyao, there is no need for the Shencatching Hall to exist.

Of course, although Yan Tianying has left the world, no one can say for sure whether the true immortal is completely unable to influence the world—for more than 400 years, Yan Tianying is the only true immortal who has transcended the calamity and transcended.

No one knows whether those true immortals in the past were unable to influence the mortal world, or were unwilling and disdainful to exert influence on the mortal world.

What if the true immortals who ascended in the past were unwilling or disdainful to have anything to do with the human world just because the fairy world was too carefree to think about the human world?
You must know that most of the true immortals who ascended through the tribulation in the past were from Dharma cultivation.

Like the one who ascended to the throne at the beginning of the founding of the country more than 400 years ago, he is a real person.

Faxiu is arrogant in the first place, his eyes are high above the top, his eyes are full of children, he disdains to associate with the common people, and it is reasonable to completely ignore the world after he is promoted to immortality.

But Yan Tianying is not like this!
Especially before Yan Tianying's ascension, he blasted the majestic Bodhisattva with one punch, wounded the real Qiankun who fled the ground with one finger, smashed the real body of the real Bailong with another punch, and then smashed the mighty demon with three punches. World Demon Buddha...

Such a terrifying record, even though he has ascended, the deterrent power still exists.

No one can tell whether he is still paying attention to the world above the nine heavens, and whether he can still pass down the power from below the nine heavens.

No one knew if he had left some trump cards for her when he met Master Wanfa before he left.

Therefore, before the emperor abolished the Shenchui Hall, he first conferred the title of Yan Tianying, and built a temple for him, offering him a national sacrifice, which gave him enough face.

After the decree was abolished, there was no intention of embarrassing the gods of the Shenzhutang.

Instead, using Shen Lang's efforts to turn the tide during the catastrophe in Fengwu Mansion and Kunxian Mansion and saving countless people as an excuse, he revoked the bounty offered to him, and even made him a general in command of the Forbidden Army, with authority only under Bai Huchan , The official uniform and letter were prepared for him, and he was given a mansion in Beijing, declaring that he could return to Beijing to take office at any time.

Mu Qingxue was even named "General Chariot". Although there is no army to bring her, but the official position is comparable to that of General Xiaoqi Bai Huchan and General Hussar Gu Sansi. In Beijing, she was also provided with a chariot general's mansion. .

Yan Kai, Wu Lie, and all other head-hunters in the God-Catching Hall also received their own rewards to comfort them for their years of law enforcement and fighting against evil robberies.

The emperor played tricks, and all the officials paid homage to His Majesty's sages and treated the meritorious officials generously.

It is said that although the Hall of Gods has been withdrawn, Mu Qingxue, Shen Lang and other heroes of the Hall of Gods have all been properly settled, promoted to ranks, and enjoyed the privileges. They should be grateful to His Majesty and come to His Majesty in person Thank God.

If they dare not go back to Beijing to face the saint, then they are ungrateful and treat the belly of the saint with the heart of a villain.

The day when the Ministry of Punishment took over the yamen of Shenzhutang.

Outside the main entrance of Shenchoutang Yamen, there was a sea of ​​people, not only the carriage and horse farm at the entrance was crowded with idlers watching the excitement, but even the street opposite, and even the courtyard walls, roofs, and street trees were crowded to the brim.

Many people are secretly speculating whether Master Wanfa will react to this.

"It's impossible to have a reaction. You are really willing to help Shenchuitang when you are Wanfa Daoist? If it weren't for Lord Yan, you would think Wanfa Daoist would ignore Shenchuitang."

"That's right, who doesn't have a high-spirited Taoism cultivator, who is dedicated to cultivation and hates ordinary trivial matters? Even common law cultivators are rare in the Jianghu, let alone a high-ranking Dazheng? If it wasn't for supporting Master Yan, Wanfa Daoist would not bother Take a look at the God Catching Hall."

"But after all, the God's Catchment Hall is where Mr. Yan has devoted his heart and soul for many years..."

"Oh, the most important thing in Shenchuangtang is people, not such a broken yamen. As early as the second day after the evil robbery, this yamen was already empty, and there was not even a clerk or cook left. Come down...everyone is gone, how can Master Wanfa care about an empty office? Don't think too much, Master Wanfa won't show up today."

"By the way, why did the people from the God Catch Hall leave? Although His Majesty abolished the God Catch Hall, he didn't just abandon the head catchers. Every head catcher has a reward! All the four famous catchers have become generals. , the other headhunters have also received real job rewards, and they can go to various places to be military officials with real power..."

"Hey, the so-called rewards are nothing more than bait. The head catchers of the Shenchuitang are selfless and ruthless in enforcing the law. How many people have they offended these years? Not afraid of infinite maliciousness from all directions. But now... Lord Yan ascended to the throne, and God's Catching Hall was abolished. Daoist Wanfa may not be interested in the headhunters of God's Catching Hall. Don't believe it, within a year, they will be 'died in the king's affairs' one by one?"

"... Goodbye, brother!"

Opposite to the Yamen of Shenchuangtang.

A two-meter-tall, broad-shouldered, muscular man wearing an open-breasted jacket, revealing his strong chest muscles and a large piece of chest hair, holds a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth and squeezes into the crowd with his arms folded. , listening to the discussions of the surrounding people with great interest.

Every time I hear a reasonable high-level theory, I still make a joke or two from time to time, looking like an idle guy with nothing to do.

On the shoulders of the big man, there was a tiger cat squatting, licking its paws and yawning from time to time.

At this moment, the tiger cat opened its mouth wide again, yawned a lot, then pulled his ears, and said through voice transmission:
"Shen Lang, what's so exciting about this excitement? There's no one in the yamen!"

That's right, the tiger cat was transformed by Xiao Zhao, and this two-meter-tall muscular man was transformed by Shen Lang in disguise.

His current disguise technique is based on the fine-grained control of the "Lingtai Point", changing the layout of the muscles and bones in the body, stretching the muscles and bones, expanding the muscles of the body cavity, making the body bigger or smaller, and making the facial bones bulge or collapse. , Completely change the body shape and appearance.

This way of disguise, unless he took the initiative to reveal his aura, Yipin might not recognize him.

Moreover, this kind of disguise technique achieved from the internal structure of the body can only be performed by him - although other third-rank and second-rank warriors have also condensed the "Lingtai Point", theoretically they can do it like him, But in fact, no other martial artist has such powerful primordial power.

Even though one can change one's body shape and appearance in a short period of time through micro-level body control, it cannot be maintained for a long time.And even if it is a short-term change, you need to concentrate on maintaining the change. Once you lose your mind or enter a fierce battle, you will return to the original state.

And Shen Lang can not only maintain the deformed state for a long time, but also does not need to concentrate on maintaining the change, even in fierce battles, he can also maintain his changed appearance.

Therefore, when everyone in the Shencatching Hall followed Yan Tianying's instructions before leaving, and with the assistance of the real person Wanfa, they went underground according to the latent plan that had been drawn up before, and Mu Qingxue and Guan Yunfeng also followed the real person Wanfa to Wanfamen. Temporarily avoiding, Shen Lang is still wandering outside.

He first disguised himself as a high-nosed and deep-eyed Westerner, and sent Aishaliya to meet the envoys of the Storm Kingdom.

After Her Royal Highness embarked on the return journey with the envoys, he disguised himself as a reckless wanderer, carrying an iron rod, a package, and a tiger cat, and swaggered back to the capital.

He's not flying off the waves.

But after careful consideration, he thinks that the capital is relatively safe now—Yan Tianying has not ascended for a long time, and the remaining prestige has not dissipated. Both Qiankun and Bailong were severely injured by Yan Tianying, especially Bailong, whose real body was bombed to death. Under the suspicion, these two should not talk about making troubles in the short term, for fear that they will not even dare to show their faces.

As for the emperor, the masters under his command died completely. The only two second ranks in the palace, Zhang Baimei was driven away by the emperor himself, and Guan Yunfeng was also forced by the emperor to follow Shen Lang. If Bailong and Qiankun don't show up, the emperor It can be said that there is no threat.

Of course, it would be too boring to wander around the capital just because you think the capital is safe.

Shen Langqian returned to the capital because he wanted to do something big and vent his anger.

Once the current window period is missed, if I want to do this in the future, I'm afraid it will have to be delayed for a long time.

The people from the Ministry of Punishment finally took over the Yamen of Shenzhutang smoothly.

No one jumped out to make trouble, and Master Wanfa didn't show up either.

The onlookers were quite disappointed when they failed to see the great excitement, and dispersed with sighs and emotions.

Shen Lang also hugged the tiger cat and dispersed with the crowd.

Back at the inn where he was staying, Shen Lang ordered a table of wine and vegetables for a full meal, then went back to his room, sat cross-legged on the couch, and communicated with Xiaoya:
"When will the ginseng fruit mature?"

In the space, Xiaoya, who was casting a spell on the spiritual ginseng fruit tree, replied:
"Before midnight tonight, all seventeen spirit ginseng fruits will be ripe!"

Shen Lang nodded and smiled slightly:
"very good……"

After that, he took out a Daoist book and flipped through it.

This Dharma book was obtained from Master Wanfa, and it recorded several secret methods of Wanfamen.

Shen Lang is still only the fourth rank of Taoism now, but soon, he will be promoted to the third rank of Taoism. It is time to preview the third rank of Taoism to prepare for the practice of spells after the promotion.

He originally had two third-rank spells, one was the third-rank attack spell "Mountain Sumeru King's Palm", and the other was the third-rank defensive spell "Glass Golden Body", but he lacked a control spell.

So this time, he asked Daoist Wanfa for a secret control technique of Wanfamen, the third-rank Taoism "binding dragon rope".

In addition, after being promoted to the third rank of Taoism, there will be three more spell slots for the fourth rank and other ranks.

Shen Lang has no shortage of spells from the ninth rank to the fifth rank, but only the three fourth rank spells he has learned so far, and there are no others. Therefore, he also asked the Wanfa Master for three fourth rank secret arts.

Among them is a "flowing gold and turning stone technique", which is a "field type" spell of the fourth rank.

Once this technique is triggered, the temperature will rise sharply within a radius of one hundred feet around the performer.Especially within ten feet of the caster's body, the temperature can be so high that it melts gold gravel, turns steel into molten iron, and turns rock into magma.

Ten feet away, the temperature is gradually increasing, but even the outermost area has a high temperature of [-] degrees, which is enough to easily roast a person.

The reason for choosing this field spell is of course because Shen Lang has flame enhancements, which can strengthen this field spell and make the temperature in the field higher.

And after Xiaoye condensed the demon core and was promoted to the fourth realm, Shen Lang's flame enhancement will become stronger, and the fire spells will get even greater bonuses.

At that time, the power of the fourth-rank "Metal Melting Stone Art" would be comparable to the third-rank fire-element secret technique.

In fact, the spells obtained from Master Wanfa have long been engraved in his heart.

Over the past few days, Shen Lang has even simulated using primordial power to construct spells many times in the sea of ​​consciousness.

However, the structure of the third-rank spells is extremely complicated. Even though he is familiar with the technique of "binding the dragon rope", Shen Lang still takes out the Taoist book whenever he has time to read, learn from the past, improve his proficiency, and strive to be promoted to the Taoist spell Three grades, you can successfully construct this technique.

Before you know it, the sky is getting dark.

"The fruit of ginseng is ripe soon, remember to come back on time."

"Know it!"

After a brief conversation.

Xiao Ye jumped out of the window and soared into the sky, Ling Yu blended perfectly into the night.

Xiao Zhao also changed into a black fur body, and stepped out of the window with graceful catwalks.

Xiaogu also turned into a shadow, and fled away.

Similar actions have been going on for several nights.

It will continue until the time comes.

After the little demons left, Shen Lang stared out of the window, and suddenly sighed:
"Today was supposed to be the third-class celebration banquet for the senior sister, and there should have been big white steamed buns to eat..."

But the current situation is obviously not the time to celebrate.

Even if Shen Lang didn't stay in the Wanfa Gate to practice in closed doors, he was afraid of irritating Master Wanfa—he was in love with Mu Qingxue, Guan Yunfeng, and the elder sister, what would Master Wanfa think when he saw it?
Shen Lang was a little afraid of provoking Master Wanfa to the point of madness.

Ascension would have been a good thing.

Yan Tianying's escape from catastrophe and long life in peace should have been a great event worth celebrating, and a banquet should be held with wine for ten days and ten nights.

But the problem is...

Daoist Wanfa couldn't go through the tribulation with him.

Even in the future, he may not be sure of successfully crossing the catastrophe, transcending the world, and reuniting with Yan Tianying.

Therefore, Yan Tianying's ascension is likely to be a farewell to Master Wanfa.

"I actually have this problem too."

Shen Lang thought to himself:

"Even if I am sure of surviving the tribulation and ascending, the girls in my family may not all be so sure."

In the past 1000 years, there have been only four people who have ascended from the catastrophe, including Yan Tianying.

And how many first-class products have been produced in the past 1000 years?
There are so many first-ranks, but only four people ascended. This is a terrifying success rate...

"So, if I want to ascend in the future, I have to achieve 'One person attains the Tao, uproots the house and ascends'... Not only must I take away my sisters, but also take Daoist Wanfa with me, and send her to reunite with Master Yan..."

Even Yan Tianying couldn't lead people to ascend to heaven, but Shen Lang wanted to achieve Taoism alone and his whole family ascend to immortality. This is undoubtedly a bit whimsical and arrogant.

But Shen Lang's whimsical imagination was not a baseless delusion.

Because he has a "fine pen".

A fine brush can bring him to this world through time and space, and has helped him create miracles many times, so it may not be impossible to help him realize his wild dreams in the future.
