The disaster of the world begins with Dongfang Bubai

Chapter 123 How could a useless person who cannot see through the thread of love even when dying be the previous life of this poor Taoist

"Uh..." Bi Yao's eyes turned and she said seriously:

"Master, you have finally discovered that the so-called righteous saint is actually the Lord of Heaven of our Holy Religion."

"Your expression is a little exaggerated. Practice more." Xi Mingzhang glanced at her and walked along a path along the seaside.

Bi Yao stood there in a daze for a while before she reacted and quickly followed.

After a while, the two came to a cave along the end of the path. Deep inside the cave, there was a curtain of water hanging from the top of the cave, forming a small pool of water.

Xi Mingzhang looked up at the seven red stones on the top of the cave, which were different in color from the other stone walls. He walked to the surface of the pool and stopped at the place where water dripped from the seven red stones.

However, the water drops from the seven red stones next to each other on the pond formed a shape that looked like a palm.

Xi Mingzhang waved his sleeves, and the water from the pool poured out in all directions, revealing seven small stones at the bottom of the pool. He stretched out his hands, pressing five small stones with one hand and two small stones with the other hand.

A strange sound suddenly came from the empty cave, and a hole appeared in the stone wall behind the water curtain.

"So this is the entrance to the Bleeding Cave." Bi Yao's face was full of surprise.

"Since you said that I am the Destined Demon Lord of the Demon Sect, then everything in the cave should belong to me. So, don't be greedy, otherwise the consequences will be..."

Before Xi Mingzhang finished speaking, his whole body shook, and the energy he emitted shook the water curtain apart, and he walked into the cave in the stone wall at a leisurely pace.

Bi Yao finally realized what it meant to shoot herself in the foot, and followed him helplessly and frustratedly.

When the two men were halfway there, they saw a stone chamber with two statues of evil gods and several cushions inside.

Seeing that there was nothing of value, Xi Mingzhang continued to walk deeper into the tunnel, and saw another cave entrance. Outside the cave entrance stood a stone tablet with a chilling aura.

He skipped all these fancy things and walked straight into the cave. When he reached the bottom of the cave, he saw a skeleton sitting cross-legged on a stone platform in the middle of the stone wall, with deep tunnels on both sides.

Xi Mingzhang snapped his fingers, and a ray of sword light chopped the skeleton into ashes.

"Master, please don't be so reckless. It would be bad if this skeleton is involved in some mechanism." Bi Yao said quickly.

"You wait here." Xi Mingzhang looked at a small poem engraved on the stone wall blocked by the skeleton, and his mouth curled up, thinking:

"The righteous path and the evil sect really cannot do without these love affairs."

Then, he quickly stepped into the tunnel on the right. When he came out, he had an iron box in his hand, and saw Bi Yao softly reciting the poems written on the stone wall.

"The bells are ringing, the flowers are withering, and the figure is getting thinner and thinner, with hair like frost."

"Deep love is painful, life is painful, infatuation is only painful because of lovelessness."

When she saw Xi Mingzhang coming back, she said:
"There are two poems in total. I didn't expect that the black-hearted old man had a relationship with Madam Jinling, who founded the Hehuan branch of my Holy Church."

Xi Mingzhang did not comment, his sleeves radiating purple-black light, the iron box gradually melted, and a black gas suddenly emerged, but was instantly blocked by the purple-black light.

"Ancient Corpse Poison!" Bi Yao raised her eyebrows slightly and shook her head.
"The black-hearted old man lives up to his name, and he actually refines this strange poison."

She saw the black air being dissipated by the purple-black light in just a few breaths, and she was filled with doubts:
"The more I come into contact with this little Taoist priest, the more terrifying he seems to me. It feels like nothing I can do to him. Coming to this Bleeding Cave is like returning home. It's so familiar to me."

With a "Ding Dong" sound, a clear and pleasant bell sounded in the quiet cave.

Bi Yao saw that Xi Mingzhang had a delicate and exquisite golden bell in his hand, and there was a thin iron chain tied to the bell.

"Could this be the Hehuan Bell, one of the four great treasures of our Holy Religion? It has the power to capture people's hearts and souls, and can be used for both attack and defense." "This name doesn't work. I will refine it someday and call it the Youdao Bell. When you hear the sound of the bell, you will be able to see your true nature, forget about yourself, and get closer to the Tao!"

A strange look appeared on Bi Yao's pretty face, and she said:

"Master, I always feel that the shortcut you mentioned is very different from what I understand as a shortcut."

Xi Mingzhang did not say much, but just walked to the poem on the stone wall, found the groove in one of the characters, and inserted the bell. The stone wall vibrated and made a rumbling sound.

He quickly pulled out the Youdao Bell and retreated with Bi Yao, only to see the stone wall collapse, revealing the inner layer of the stone wall with words engraved on it.

"Nine Netherworld spirits, gods and demons of the heavens, I offer my blood and body as a sacrifice." Bi Yao reacted and exclaimed:

"This is the 'Love Curse', which can only be practiced by women. With their entire body's blood and essence, it becomes a fierce curse with unparalleled power."

Xi Mingzhang looked at the words on the stone wall with joy:

"Refine all the essence of the flesh and blood, and then absorb the three souls and seven spirits of the body to smelt, so as to destroy the enemy together. The power is indeed not bad, but it can only be practiced by women, which is a bit petty."

He casually tied a bell around his waist, and with a series of clear and pleasant ringing sounds, his back disappeared into the tunnel on the left.

Bi Yao wrote down the "Love Curse" and quickly followed him. Then she saw the young Taoist staring at a wall with densely carved stone characters.

She fixed her eyes and whispered:
"The Heavenly Book, or the first volume of the Heavenly Book!"

Xi Mingzhang looked relaxed:
"The methods practiced by the three schools of Buddhism, Taoism and Demonism are mostly learned from the five volumes of heavenly books, and this first volume of heavenly books is the general outline. From it, I can glimpse the essence of the three schools' practice in this world."

"Taoism emphasizes controlling the creation of nature, Buddhism emphasizes realizing one's own nature, and the devil's religion has all kinds of magical powers and methods, which are extreme and unique. If the three religions are practiced together, there will be a chance of immortality."

"Master, what are your origins? You should not be just a disciple of Qingyun Sect, otherwise why are you so familiar with the Bleeding Cave and have such a profound understanding of the way of cultivation?"

A trace of fear appeared in Bi Yao's clear eyes, and she said, "Are you the reincarnation of the black-hearted old man?"

"How could a useless person who can't see through the thread of love even when dying be my previous life?" Xi Mingzhang chuckled.
"I don't know who said that I am the Destined Demon Lord. If that is the case, then there must be a will of heaven. Shouldn't I know everything about the Demon Cult?"

After saying that, he walked out of the stone chamber.

Before leaving, Bi Yao took a deep look at the stone wall and turned away. Without knowing why, she followed Xi Mingzhang and came to the stone chamber where the statue of the evil god had been erected before.

"Master, could the way out be right here?" Bi Yao asked tentatively.

The young Taoist priest raised his head and pressed, causing the right hand of a statue of the evil god to move a little. There was a sudden rumbling sound, and the stone wall behind the evil god statue slowly retreated to both sides, revealing a passage, followed by a loud bang of collapse from outside the stone chamber.

Xi Mingzhang waved his sleeves, picked up Biyao and disappeared on the spot.

Two hours later.

At the foot of Kongsang Mountain, outside a dense forest, Xi Mingzhang looked at a group of imposing strangers with a smile on his face.

The leader was a middle-aged scholar with thin eyebrows, a square face, and an elegant temperament. He also had an aura of authority without being angry, and a delicate and exquisite light purple jade pendant on his waist.

"In addition to the two heads from Tianyin Temple, I will also give you two heads from Fenxiang Valley. I wonder if I can gain your trust."

As the middle-aged scholar finished speaking, the subordinates behind him threw out a bag wrapped in black cloth. After a roll, four terrifying human heads appeared on the ground.
