I can't be a demon.

Chapter 201: I am your disciple, Patriarch Bodhi
The entire Evil Moon Three Heart Cave was shrouded in pitch-black darkness.

Only in a few buildings were candles flickering, but visibility was only two or three meters, and dozens of huge monsters could be vaguely seen moving around.

Bang bang bang.

When the drums sounded, the huge creatures stopped in their tracks.

In the darkness, I saw an old Taoist in yellow holding a lantern and walking with his head down. His figure was at least four meters tall, and there were six Taoist children following him within half a meter.

"In the beginning there was nothing, and nothing had no name. When one arose, there was one but no form."

The Taoist priest looked somewhat similar to the statue of Patriarch Bodhi, with a slightly raised back that kept beating like a heart.

He is naturally [Taichu Xin], also known as Taichu Taoist.

In the Evil Moon Three-Heart Cave, only the Three-Heart Taoist can ignore taboos and travel through the darkness with lanterns. The disciples in the cave believe that they are the incarnations of Patriarch Bodhi.

The three Taoist hearts are Tai Shang Xin, Tai Chu Xin, and Tai Yi Xin.

"Did something serious happen?"

A Taoist boy behind Tai Chuxin couldn't help but show fear on his face.

The Taoist boy had eight arms, and his immortal bones were a heart with seven orifices. He was the pirated Nezha that Shen Lian had met once in Huaguo Mountain.

As an outer sect disciple, he usually serves Tai Chuxin and can immediately detect any abnormality from Taoist Sanxin.

"Logically speaking, since he is just a new disciple, Tai Chuxin shouldn't care so much."

The eight-armed boy was a little confused.

The Three-Hearted Taoist has four states, usually with the appearance of a ghost heart, but now he has transformed into a human form, which means that what he encountered is very important.

Even Tai Chuxin ignored the people around him who were worshipping him.

The eight-armed boy was horrified as he saw ten-meter-tall figures kneeling in the darkness, murmuring the word "Taichu" in unison.

Sudden.

There was a vibration coming from the direction of the Fairy Temple, mixed with a deafening roar.

Tai Chuxin stopped and the heartbeat in his back began to intensify.

The eight-armed boy's heart skipped a beat, realizing that a fight had taken place in the Immortal Temple. "It's very likely that a true disciple is trying to seize the immortal bone, and thinks he understands the rules of the Evil Moon Three Heart Cave."

He cursed inwardly a few times. Now that Tai Chuxin had been alarmed, he didn't know if it would bring about a disaster.

"In the beginning there was nothing, nothing had no name. Where one arose, there was one but no form!!!"

Tai Chuxin kept muttering to himself, his steps were obviously speeding up, overwhelming resentment was spreading everywhere, and his body was expanding wildly.

There was a Taoist boy who failed to catch up with Tai Chuxin in time, and only the corner of his clothes was stained with darkness.

"Ahhhh!!!"

A miserable wailing was heard, and the Taoist boy was taken into darkness. A hair-raising chewing sound was heard, and the wailing stopped abruptly.

The eight-armed boy did not dare to be negligent and followed Tai Chuxin closely.

"It's over! Tai Chuxin is going on a killing spree!!"

He had never seen Tai Chuxin so impatient.

When the Temple of Immortals came into view, the eight-armed boy was shocked to find that the building was already in a lot of damage and the candlelight was mostly dim.

He took several steps back, not wanting to be affected by the aftermath of Tai Chuxin's riot. The other Taoist children also had different thoughts and were ready to escape at any time.

"kindness?"

An unexpected scene happened to the Eight-Armed Boy.

Tai Chuxin suddenly restrained his breath, and all signs of riot disappeared. His body recovered to more than four meters in length, and he slowly approached the temple holding a lantern.

"That's impossible. Why is Tai Chuxin so abnormal?"

boom.

Tai Chuxin pushed open the door, and several long and narrow arms stretched out from his robe to light the candle.

He ignored Qinghe and the others who were still suppressing their evil intentions in the corner, and his eyes fell on a man who retreated to the window.

The eight-armed boy's pupils shrank slightly and he recognized the man at the first moment.

He is the reincarnation of the immortal Buddha from the Flower-Fruit Mountain.

Even Tai Shang Xin's arrival at the Flower-Fruit Mountain seemed to be closely related to the reincarnation of immortals and Buddhas.

It turns out that Taichuxin's abnormality is because he is a reincarnated immortal Buddha. Who was he in his previous life? How could he attract the attention of Bodhi Patriarch's Dharmakāya?
"My disciple is me! Patriarch Bodhi!"

The eight-armed boy's hair stood on end. He had never seen Tai Chuxin speak to an outsider before.

"I……"

Shen Lian's face was full of fear. Although he did not sense any ill will from Tai Chuxin, it was obvious that the latter came specifically for him.

It must be because of the aura of a certain profession that Tai Chuxin misunderstood.

Blood Spirit Child? Impossible. Logically speaking, although the Blood Spirit Child is related to Tang Monk, Tang Monk should not have come into contact with Bodhi Patriarch.

"You're fine." Tai Chuxin seemed a little dull, but his intelligence was indeed capable of communicating.

"Shen Lian, the Three Stars Cave of the Slanting Moon is now flourishing with incense and the cave is flourishing. Are you willing to become my disciple, Patriarch Bodhi?"

Tai Chuxin raised the lantern and illuminated Shen Lian with its light.

The Taoist children looked at each other in bewilderment.

This is the first time that Tai Chuxin has taken the initiative to accept a disciple, and he even does it in the name of Patriarch Bodhi, which shows how much he values ​​it.

Shen Lian hesitated for a few moments, and Tai Chuxin suddenly erupted in resentment.

"Shen Lian, are you willing to become my disciple, Patriarch Bodhi?!"

Tai Chuxin's voice became hysterical, and the Taoist children all covered their chests, and the immortal bones in their bodies began to struggle uncontrollably.

The aura of Qinghe and others suddenly approached the point of going insane.

Shen Lian's Huangquan Immortal Bone has been integrated into his body, so there is not much impact, but the threat from Tai Chuxin is always there.

"Shen Lian, are you willing to become a disciple..."

Tai Chuxin asked for the third time, and his out-of-control body was already level with the statue of Bodhi Patriarch, as if he was determined to destroy it if he couldn't get it.

"Yes, disciple, I pay my respects to Master Bodhi Patriarch."

Shen Lian decisively admitted his mistake. He felt that Tai Chuxin's strangeness was still due to his profession as a blood spirit boy. It was inevitable that the unconscious monsters would mistake people for each other.

"In a few days... in a few days, I will come back to teach you the art of immortality."

Tai Chuxin looked at Shen Lian for a moment and said softly, "Master will give you a meeting gift."

After saying this, countless roots began to surge within the Taoist robe, and then the Immortal Temple began to vibrate slightly, and an inexplicable aura disappeared in an instant.

Tai Chuxin sank into the darkness on his own, and the Taoist children quickly followed.

boom.

Tai Chuxin turned his head back and looked at the eight-armed boy and said, "Take Senior Brother Shen to the Yangyuan Hall in the cave as soon as possible. They... will be back soon, so be careful."

He waved his hand, and the candles on the corridor walls lit up one after another, forming an aisle.

Shen Lian was confused.

After being remembered by Tai Chuxin, he just felt his scalp tingling.

I came to the Evil Moon Three Heart Cave for the Three Heart Secret Art. Fortunately, the second fairy bone has now taken shape. If it is really dangerous, I will retreat back to Yanliang Town after the teleportation tree grows up.

Shen Lian glanced at Qinghe who was about to go crazy, and patted the latter on the shoulder.

He didn't even need to use his wisdom eye. After Qinghe's evil heart sensed the same kind of person with two thousand levels of Taoism in Shen Lian's body, it immediately stopped making trouble.

"Many...thank you."

Qinghe opened his eyes and finally showed some signs of suppressing his evil thoughts.

"Brother Shen." The eight-armed boy said hesitantly, "After all, Tai Chuxin has said so, we should... head to Yangyuan Palace as soon as possible."

"Yangyuan Palace?"

"That is an unused palace in the northeast corner of the cave."

The eight-armed boy explained: "Although there are many palaces in the Evil Moon Three Heart Cave, in fact, only the true disciples have the right to live alone."

"What about you?"

"The newly-initiated menial disciples can only stay in the Immortal God Temple, the outer disciples go to Qingfeng Residence, and the inner disciples go to Luoquan Residence."

The eight-armed boy handed Shen Lian a simple map.

The map records more than a dozen temples, but there are no path markings.

Shen Lian glanced at the eight-armed boy and asked calmly, "Do you and I know each other?"

"No, no, no."

The eight-armed boy broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that Shen Lian would recall his experience in Huaguo Mountain.

"What's your name?"

"My brother, my Dao name is [Zi Shu]."

Shen Lian stood at the entrance of the Immortal Temple, staring into the deep and endless darkness. "Zishu, what are those looming figures outside the door? What are they that Master is talking about?"

"Brother Shen, why don't we talk while we walk?"

"You continue talking. Let me see the gift that Master gave me."

Shen Lian looked around and his eyes fell on a newly added unused statue base. Previously, all the bases in the temple were placed with various statues.

He looked closer, secretly studying the meaning of the base.

"Outside the door is... the Immortal Ghost. The Immortal God remains we need to practice the Three Heart Secret Technique are obtained from the corpse of the Immortal Ghost."

The moment the word "immortal ghost" was mentioned, a figure seemed to swoop towards the temple.

"As for the ones that Taichuxin mentioned..."

"It should refer to Tai Shang Xin and Tai Yi Xin."

"Taishangxin and Taiyixin, aren't they both transformed by Bodhi Patriarch?"

"Not sure." Zishu lowered his voice and said, "The three Taoists have never appeared at the same time, and each of them is extremely wary of the other two, or even afraid of them."

"Oh?"

Zishu hesitated and added: "True disciples can choose any of the Three Heart Taoists to become their master, but no matter who they choose, they must not show up when the other two appear."

"otherwise……"

"Otherwise what?"

"Brother Shen, those true disciples never appeared again."

Shen Lian knocked his head in pain. The situation in Xie Yue San Xin Cave was strange and inexplicable.

From today's perspective, being forcibly recruited by Tai Chuxin would do more harm than good, as it would be equivalent to violating the taboos of Tai Shangxin and Tai Yixin in advance.

"Brother Shen, look, should we set off now?"

"Well, do you know what the base that holds the statue of the immortal god is used for?"

"No... I don't know. Junior brother is really short-sighted."

Shen Lian stroked the base gently.

【Xian Shen Tai】

[Refined by Bodhi Patriarch, if you put in the flesh and blood of one or two immortals, you will immediately give birth to an immortal statue. If you burn incense and pray for ten days, you will be able to comprehend a three-heart secret technique that suits you.]

"Hiss, the method to the second immortal bone is here, but it's just the flesh and blood of the immortal god..."

Zishu saw Shen Lian lost in thought, and noticed that the candlelight outside the door was getting dimmer, so he quickly reminded him: "Brother Shen, if you wait any longer, it will be inconvenient to go to Yangyuan..."

Before Zishu could finish his words, Shen Lian grabbed the Immortal God Platform and lifted it up with force. There was a sound of roots breaking, and the base was forcibly separated from the temple.

"It's an opportunity after all. It would be a waste to keep it in the temple."

Shen Lian carried the Immortal God Platform and poured medicinal wine on the roots at the bottom of the platform.

"Let's go."

Zishu looked at the gap in the ground that was gradually healing, his Taoist robe already soaked with sweat.

The Temple of Immortals and Gods is the heart of the Evil Moon Three-Heart Cave, which is Shen Lian. If it were anyone else, he would have been eaten alive by the Three-Heart Taoist!
