The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 238: The Three Realms are Complete, the Dao Sect's Killing Order

Biming Mountain, Wanfu Tower.

Amidst the ruins, there was a staggering figure, his purple Taoist robe torn to pieces, revealing his body covered in bruises.

The white hair flutters in the wind, withered like dead grass.

Sun Tianchi kept coughing up blood, and his spirit, which had reached its peak, began to dissipate. The talismans condensed by the surrounding golden light turned into bubbles and dissipated.

A talisman flew out from between his eyebrows, with the word "merit" written on it, but it was dim.

In the distance, two slender figures stood under the bright moon, secretly watching the battle between Sun Tianchi and the Two-Faced Buddha.

"Sun Tianchi lost. What a pity. He let the two-faced Buddha slip away with such a good opportunity."

The one who spoke was Yue Ling. She was wearing a black robe and a ghost mask, but the eyes under the mask were still heroic and sharp, as bright as a knife.

The Dragon Girl stood beside her, her white clothes were whiter than snow, her appearance was peerless, and her glass-colored pupils were like the purest and most flawless gems in the world.

"Why not take the opportunity to kill the injured two-faced Buddha?"

She was a little confused, and her voice was ethereal and cold, neither fast nor slow, like a piece of music.

Yue Ling shook her head and said, "If we act now, we will have a chance to kill the Two-Faced Buddha, but it will bring danger to Zhang Jiuyang."

"The Heavenly Venerable has already backed down once, and he will never back down a second time. In this assessment, the Heavenly Stems can fight each other, but they cannot cause any of them to fall. After all, the Heavenly Venerable's goal is to gather all ten Heavenly Stems."

"If we really kill the Two-Faced Buddha, no one knows what Tianzun will do in his rage."

Thinking of the bloody incident at the Duke's Mansion more than ten years ago, Yue Ling's heart sank.

She had already lost a sister and didn't want to lose another close friend.

"Wait a little longer. Be patient. You and I are both close to a breakthrough. By then, even if we take action, we will have a better chance of success."

The dragon girl didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly.

Yue Ling seemed to notice something, glanced at her, smiled slightly, and said: "Bai Niqiu, you don't seem to like talking much recently, are you worried about something?"

The dragon girl was stunned, and her eyes were filled with ripples.

Yue Ling seemed to have thought of something and said jokingly, "I see. Are you worried about losing to me? After all, we made a bet on who will break through the sixth realm first..."

"Violent girl, you can't win."

Yue Ling smiled faintly and said, "Bai Niu Qiu, to be honest, I just watched this battle and I also realized something. The day of breaking through should be these few days."

She patted the dragon girl on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You are doomed to lose."

The dragon girl's eyes were a little dazed, and no one knew what she was thinking.

This made Yue Ling frown slightly. Although Bai Niuqiu seemed to be indifferent to worldly matters, he had the pride of a true dragon's bloodline in his bones, and he shouldn't have this kind of reaction.

What's up with her?
Could it be that he was tired from moving water from Dongyang Lake?
It is possible that so much lake water needs to be transported from afar and flown hundreds of miles, which consumes too much mana.

What's more, Bai Niqiu also fought several rounds head-on with the fairy sound of the jade flute and the Avalokitesvara mantra of the two-faced Buddha.

Even if you have the body of a real dragon, you would probably feel tired.

Yue Ling was about to speak when she saw Sun Tianchi staggering in the distance, then he fell to his knees with a thud, and his head slowly drooped.

She sighed softly, her eyes complicated.

No matter what, Sun Tianchi is also the master of the talisman lineage in the world, and Wanfu Tower is also a Taoist sect with a thousand-year heritage, but he does not want it to be interrupted tonight.

One wrong step can lead to disaster!

……

Sun Tianchi knelt on the ground and could feel his vitality slipping away. He was already at the moment of death, like a candle that had burned out.

All kinds of past events emerged in my mind, like a passing visit.

In a trance, he seemed to have turned into a little Taoist boy again, following his master, drawing endless talismans and reciting endless scriptures every day.

I broke many wolf-hair brushes and dyed the clear water in ink.

The master never smiled. Even though he tried his best to practice and the talismans he drew became more and more outstanding, the master always had a blank expression and never praised him.

He thought he wasn't working hard enough, but no matter how hard he tried, his master always had a blank expression on his face and even sighed.

Until his master's death, he held his master's hand and swore to him that he would never let Wan Fu Lou fall out of the ranks of the top sects, and would definitely revive the sect and restore the glory of the founder!
At that moment, the master left with a smile.

Sun Tianchi's eyes began to dim, and in his dying moments, he seemed to see his old master again.

The master still looked so upright and old-fashioned, holding a ruler in his hand, looking at him with disappointment, as if blaming him for not fulfilling his promise.

Sun Tianchi's cracked lips trembled slightly, and finally he uttered a word tremblingly.

"Master... I tried my best."

When his head touched the ground, his life force completely dissipated, and his flying white hair completely lost its luster and fell to the ground like withered weeds.

The direction in which he was kneeling was the cemetery of Wanfu Tower, which was also the ancestral temple.

drip~
A golden pill rolled out from his arms, emitting a strong medicinal fragrance.

That was the Human Yuan Golden Pill traded to him by the Two-Faced Buddha. He had originally planned to choose one of his three true disciples to give it to, and even train him to become the next headmaster in the future.

But now, the elixir has turned into dust and Wanfu Tower is gone.

The headmaster, Sun Tianchi, died in battle.

……

Three days later.

In the side room of Shen's Mansion.

The fragrant mist of Jiangzhen rose up and penetrated into the pores of Zhang Jiuyang's body, transforming into bursts of spring rain that nourished the three flowers of Zifu, and it was growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Almost every day it changes.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Jiuyang slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were gleaming with brilliance, and his powerful spirit almost formed an invisible aura. Ordinary people would feel restrained in front of him, as if nothing could be hidden from those eyes.

He had just finished his training when a voice came from outside the door.

"Xiaojiu, something big has happened, something big has happened!"

Lao Gao's voice sounded, and he seemed very shocked.

Zhang Jiuyang waved his sleeves, and the door opened slowly without any wind.

"Lao Gao, come in and tell me, what happened?"

Zhang Jiuyang's voice seemed to have some magical power, which quickly calmed Lao Gao's emotions. That invisible aura had the power to influence people's hearts.

Lao Gao looked at him and took a deep breath, saying, "You, you broke through to the fourth level?"

Zhang Jiuyang shook his head and smiled faintly: "I have only completed the third picture, and I am still one step away from breaking through."

With the help of agarwood, he had completely perfected the third diagram of Yuding Xuan Gong, "The Three Gates of Success and Defiance".

This third picture can help people cultivate the Dharma Eye, which originally focuses on the Yuanshen. After the great success, Zhang Jiuyang's Yuanshen has grown again, and his words and deeds seem to have some mysterious power. The whole person seems to have added a strange charm, which is very eye-catching.

Now, he can be said to have reached the end of the third realm. The three flowers in the purple mansion are in full bloom, and the clear light is diffused. It is time to pick and refine medicine.

hiss!
Hearing Zhang Jiuyang say that he had not yet broken through, Lao Gao was even more surprised and shocked. He had come into contact with many Lingtailangs in the fourth realm. To be honest, the oppressive feeling that some Lingtailangs gave him was not as strong as that given by Xiao Jiu.

I heard from Yuetou that Xiaojiu once fought against evil spirits from all four realms and never lost.

He is already so powerful before the mirror is broken. How amazing will he be if he breaks through the fourth level?

He looked at Zhang Jiuyang with deep emotion.

Who could have thought that the immature boy from that small county town would have grown to such an extent in just one year?
He had mentored Zhang Jiuyang before, but now he can only look up to him.

"Lao Gao, you came here in such a hurry, what's the matter?"

Hearing Zhang Jiuyang's voice, Lao Gao came back to his senses and said hurriedly: "Xiao Jiu, something big has happened. You know Wan Fu Lou, right? It's the sect of that toad Sun Mingyu. Wan Fu Lou has been destroyed!!!"

Zhang Jiuyang: “…”

Lao Gao was very excited and said, "That was once one of the top sects. Although it has declined a lot now, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. It is still a behemoth!"

"But it's gone just like that. I just came back from the scene. The scene was so shocking. Not to mention Wanfu Tower, the entire Biming Mountain was almost destroyed. Tsk tsk, I don't know how fierce the battle was at that time!"

Seeing that Zhang Jiuyang didn't seem to be that surprised, he asked in confusion: "Xiao Jiu, do you already know?"

Zhang Jiuyang nodded and said, "Yue Ling sent me a message."

Lao Gao immediately smiled and winked at him.

"What a fool! He told us not to spread the news, but he was the first to spread it."

"It seems that in Yuetou's eyes, you are not an outsider, but an insider, tut tut..."

He deliberately emphasized the word "wife" and gave a look that said "I understand."

Zhang Jiuyang rolled his eyes at him and quickly changed the subject.

"Old Gao, you don't seem angry about the destruction of Wanfu Tower. You even seem a little happy?"

Normally speaking, the people in the Imperial Observatory should be filled with anger over the destruction of the orthodox sects. After all, when the lips are gone, the teeth are interdependent, and when Taoism disappears, evil will rise.

When the Yuding Palace was destroyed, the Imperial Observatory spared no effort to investigate and vowed to wipe out the demons, until Zhuge Qixing really found out something and chose to seal the files.

But now Lao Gao looked like he had achieved great success and was very happy with the outcome.

"Xiao Jiu, you don't know that Wan Fu Lou has been in trouble for many years. We in the Imperial Observatory have found many dirty things and even had conflicts with them."

"If we hadn't been concerned about Sun Tianchi, the great master, and the Treasure Scroll of Common People in his hand, we might have fallen out completely!"

Thinking of the corpses whose brow bones were dug out and the women who were buried alive, Zhang Jiuyang sighed softly in his heart.

Unjust is doomed to destruction!
Whether in the secular world or out of it, one must not violate the most fundamental principles, otherwise the inheritance will be truly cut off and the Taoist tradition will be severed.

"What about the murderer? Do you know who the murderer is?"

Lao Gao shook his head and said, "It's not certain yet, but most people think it was Yan Luo who did it."

Zhang Jiuyang's expression suddenly became intriguing. Were everyone's guesses so accurate?

Although Sun Tianchi died at the hands of the Two-Faced Buddha, the destruction of Wanfu Tower and the feud between the two of them were all attributed to him as the mastermind behind the scenes.

The Thirteen Forms of Escape can not only be used to escape, but also to kill people without bloodshed.

No wonder the Imperial Observatory was very cautious about the inheritance of this technique.

"No wonder. After all, Yan Luo killed Sun Tianchi's son, and Sun Tianchi openly offered a reward for Yan Luo's head. With Yan Luo's overbearing personality, could he bear this?"

"It's just that Yan Luo always likes to leave his name behind when he kills someone, but this time I didn't see any blood. Could it be that he was injured and fled in a hurry?"

Shaking his head, Lao Gao continued, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Oh, I have something else to tell you, Xiaojiu. You will definitely be very happy to hear it!"

"what's up?"

"As the news of the destruction of Wanfu Tower spread throughout the world, those high and mighty sects finally began to feel insecure. Led by the Taiping Temple in Kyoto, many sects such as Feixian Cave, Jiangjun Temple, Ganshi Mountain, as well as powerful Taoist sects such as Mingxia Mountain, Huanglong Cave, Beidou Palace, and Dongxiao Pavilion, all issued a kill order!"

"Kill who?"

"Yama!"

Zhang Jiuyang: “…”

Suddenly I felt a chill all over my body, which was really a "happy thing".

"Xiaojiu, why are you unhappy?"

"No matter if it was Yan Luo who did it, he is in trouble this time. Following the destruction of the Jade Tripod Palace six hundred years ago, this is the first time that the Taoist sects have joined forces to go to such great lengths to kill a person."

"After all, Wan Fu Lou is one of the faces of Taoism."

Zhang Jiuyang smiled with his lips but his heart was not smiling.

"Yes, I am very happy. No matter how powerful Yan Luo is, he can't compete with all the Taoist sects. It will save you a lot of trouble."

"Who said it wasn't? These Taoists were uncontrollable before, but now they are all right. We just need to provide information and find Yan Luo to kill him. Hehe, we can also get a lot of treasures as rewards."

He told Zhang Jiuyang one by one about the rewards given by the major sects, and Zhang Jiuyang was moved.

If he turned himself in, wouldn't he become rich?
Of course, you may be able to take it but not spend it.

"By the way, where's Yue Ling? Why haven't I seen her these days?"

Lao Gao smiled and said proudly: "Yuetou is about to break through. He has been cultivating his spirit recently and preparing for the breakthrough!"

Zhang Jiuyang's eyes lit up. So fast, Yue Ling is about to break through to the sixth level?

This is the really good news!
He smiled, feeling much more relieved, and said, "Lao Gao, what about you? When are you going to break through? How is the agarwood I gave you before?"

Lao Gao sighed when he heard this, "Agarwood is a good thing, but unfortunately my foundation is shallow. Every time I use it for only a short while, my meridians ache and my blood swell. The drug is too strong. It will take three to five days for me to recover."

Zhang Jiuyang's heart moved. He didn't encounter these obstacles when he was practicing. It seemed that the Jade Ding Xuan Gong made his foundation too strong, so he could use the agarwood so unscrupulously.

It is worthy of being the first profound skill of Taoism.

I chatted with Lao Gao for a long time again, and they also had a meal, with steamed buns made by Ali and some fried side dishes.

The three of them ate and chatted, teasing little Ali from time to time, and bursts of laughter were heard, as if they were back in the small county town in Qingzhou.

After the meal, Lao Gao stood up to say goodbye. Zhang Jiuyang was about to practice for a while, but Ah Li rolled her eyes, took something out of her small pouch, and handed it to him like offering a treasure.

"Ninth Brother, Ninth Brother!"

"This is what Ali secretly picked up for you!"

She stretched out her hand, and in her snow-white palm was a round, golden pill that exuded a strong medicinal fragrance, which made Zhang Jiuyang's magic power move.

Human Yuan Golden Pill!
