I can't be a demon.

Chapter 258 [Sword Style (Nirvana Slash)]

Before we knew it, another year has passed.

Yanliang Town holds various celebrations to worship immortals and gods. In addition to Zhong Kui, there are also many warriors who offer sacrifices to Tianpeng Zhenjun every day.

Even if Shen Lian did not deliberately tell the mystery of the Tianpeng statue, after a long time, some warriors soon realized that after visualizing the statue, they could actually comprehend the superior martial arts classics.

The Tianpeng Temple was constantly visited by visitors, and martial arts in the Yanshan area became increasingly prosperous.

"Ghost Dad is enjoying himself."

After Shen Lian returned to Yanliang Town, he basically focused on consolidating his cultivation while waiting for the Zhenjing Pill to mature. He did nothing every day.

Whenever he has free time, he would go to Tianpeng Temple to visit Guidie and his family.

Ghost Dad seemed to have gotten used to staying in Yanliang Town. Even when Shen Lian offered to send them back to Gao Village, he did not agree immediately.

The ghost girl ran around the city, preferring the mortal world to the lonely cave.

Seeing this, Shen Lian did not force it.

Anyway, with the banyan tree in place, any resentment that the ghost girl accidentally lets out will disappear completely and will not affect the city's population of more than 100,000.

After Shen Lian had a simple lunch in the market, he staggered into the courtyard.

The courtyard has undergone significant changes and is now decorated like a Jiangnan garden.

The bamboo forest rustled in the wind, and in the center there was a shallow pond, with a few rugged rocks sitting on top, and in the corners there were extremely lush banyan trees.

A few years ago, Shen Hansheng specially hired craftsmen to carry out a large-scale construction project, and also took over the grain shop next door, so the area of ​​the courtyard has greatly increased.

Shen Lian took a few gulps of the medicinal wine and then poured the wine into the pond.

Benboerba and Baboerben cautiously poked their heads out, took a quick taste and immediately dived into the water, for fear of encountering a starling.

"The Yanshan area is now truly impregnable."

"It won't take long for Ghost Dad to advance to 4,000 years. With Ghost Mom and Ghost Sister here, plus the help of two stupid fish, unless it's an unparalleled demon, it won't be able to enter or leave the Salt Mountain."

The stability in the Yanshan area has attracted a large number of immigrants to gather here.

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door.

After Wang Xin received Shen Lian’s response, he opened the door and walked into the courtyard.

"Brother Shen, the cave medium you applied for from the court has been delivered."

Shen Lian took the storage bag from Wang Xin, inside of which was a veil as thin as a cicada's wing, exuding a faint feminine fragrance.

[Spider Demon's Face Towel]

[Made by the eight-faced spider, you can take the face towel to the Pansi Cave to participate in the insect feast. Remember, don't be greedy! ! ! ]

Wang Xin asked hesitantly, "Did something happen in Pansi Cave?"

"I don't know, but I definitely can't get any news from Li Shun and Zhu Yihong."

Wang Xin showed worry. After all, he had known the three of them for many years. He thought that he would be able to successfully emerge from the cave with the help of the opportunity given by the guardian gods, but he did not expect them to disappear suddenly.

"Brother Wang, I asked you to investigate Liang Town, north of Yanshan. How is the situation?"

"After the locust plague, a total of 1,500 women in Liang Town became inexplicably pregnant, but they all miscarried one after another..."

"Miscarriage?" Shen Lian narrowed his eyes. The disaster in Liang Town might be related to Pansi Cave.

"It's strange, there was no sign of the fetus after the miscarriage, it seemed that the stomach was just full of foul air, but fortunately the woman was fine."

"Where's the demonic aura?"

"Captain Zuo went to see it, and didn't detect any demonic aura."

"kindness."

Because Liang Town is located in a remote area and crossing the Yanshan Mountains takes a lot of time, Shen Lian did not go there in person. Now it seems that it is very likely affected by the forbidden magical powers of the demons.

Shen Lian didn't think that the demons were intentionally influencing Liang Town, otherwise no mortal would have survived.

Moreover, Liang Town happened to be on the edge of the Yanshan Mountains and was protected by banyan trees and lotus platforms. Even the thousand-year-old demons would not dare to act rashly.

Wang Xin now took over Zhang Yuanzhen's duties in Yanshan and hurriedly left the pawnshop.

Shen Lian wrapped the Pengyu Fruit in a towel and buried it in the corner. Not long after, the teleportation tree in Pansi Cave began to thrive.

The golden-winged Roc gave a total of three feathers, all of which were used to breed the Pengyu Fruit.

【Pengyu Fruit】

[Growing from the banyan tree, buried deep underground along with the cave medium, it will grow into a branch connected to the banyan tree.]

Two Pengyu Fruits have been consumed, and the remaining one is just aimed at Guanyin Temple.

As long as he could enter and exit the cave at any time, even if the hidden dangers in Guanyin Temple were far beyond ordinary, at least his life could be guaranteed.

A few days later.

Shen Lian had four more ripe Zhenjing Dan fruits in his hand. After cleaning them, he found that only the flesh and the core contained medicinal power.

He guessed that it was because the Four Sentences of the Sutra had just been formed not long ago, which made the elixir slightly inferior.

【Theravada Samantabhadra Fruit】

[Growing from the banyan tree, the fruit of the Hinayana Samantabhadra contains the four words of such wisdom, which evolved into two objects of Samantabhadra. ]

【Taking the pulp can make your understanding clearer and increase your wisdom. 】

[Refining the fruit core can imprint the four characters of “such wisdom” on the Dao infant. Remember, those who hold the scriptures must carry them on their journey to the west!!!]

The other three Zhenjing Dan fruits are almost the same, with only the pulp and the core, and their effects after taking are slightly different.

The pulp of [Anuttara-samyak-dharma-ninja] can heal any injuries of the body and soul; the pulp of [Purity] can remove the erosion caused by the evil spirits.

[Achievement of the Dharma What You Have Heard] is the most special. Once taken, any thing you visualize within a short period of time can help you understand the Dharma.

Even a piece of stone, or ordinary animals or plants.

"receive."

Shen Lian shook the ghost gourd, and all the fruit pulp fell into the space. The magic weapon suddenly began to throb, and the pattern on the surface became more and more real. The four pieces of fruit pulp were brewed into excellent medicinal wine bit by bit.

The dharma of non-birth and pure medicinal wine are kept at the bottom of the box and can save your life at the critical moment.

As soon as the wise medicinal wine was brewed, Shen Lian drank it in one gulp.

He felt his mind was clear, many of the obstacles in his martial arts techniques were easily solved, and even his soul became purer.

The growth of understanding is subtle and will definitely benefit your subsequent practice.

Shen Lian digested the nutrients in the medicinal wine and immediately set about refining the true scriptures. The value of Hinayana Buddhism could only be maximized by integrating it into fighting style.

He secretly performed the Purple Mansion Weapon Tempering Method to explore the compatibility between the true scripture and his fighting style.

Then he noticed that Wusheng Fanin was vaguely in line with the horizontal sword style, and that the Tianhe boxing and the horizontal sword style that he had heard of were very in line with each other.

Shen Lian did not hesitate and chose to concentrate the two verses of the mantra on the horizontal sword stance.

The remaining two sentences were refined into the dragon fish robe.

Kaka.

Shen Lian groaned, and the moment the fruit core was crushed, his soul led the true scripture to the Niwan Palace, and the noisy sound of chanting rang in his ears.

The Buddha's light of the four words "Anuttara-samyak-dharmak-patience" rose sharply, and the soul spit out a horizontal sword from its mouth.

With the activation of the Purple Mansion Tempering Technique, the Wusheng Fanin will become like a living thing and gradually become a part of the horizontal sword style.

At this moment, a prompt appeared on the career panel.

[Do you want to consume 20 points to combine the horizontal sword style and the immortal method of ninjutsu]

"Well? Is this okay?"

Shen Lian was overjoyed. If he could add some points to the Refining Sutra, he would have an extra layer of insurance to avoid any drawbacks in his fighting style.

His points are now close to 400, and he doesn't even blink an eye at a mere 20 points.

"determine."

Wusheng Faren had no power to resist and was swallowed up by his soul in an instant. Then, the content of his horizontal sword style changed drastically.

The horizontal sword style has never been combined into a secret technique, it is just an ordinary superior martial art.

After refining the scriptures, the martial arts scriptures immediately became extraordinary, and the true meaning of martial arts was also significantly different from the previous imitation of the falling meteorite.

[Do you want to consume 20 points to combine the horizontal sword style and achieve the method you have heard of?]

"continue!"

The purpose of achieving what one has heard is simply to transform the martial arts. Logically speaking, it would be more appropriate to integrate it into the main practice method, but Shen Lian really doesn't want his martial arts to be polluted by Buddhism.

The fighting style is just a technique of using strength, and it is okay to mix in some Buddhist mystical elements.

Shen Lian felt a sharp pain in his temple, and a huge amount of information surged in his Niwan Palace. The horizontal sword style gradually became more and more unfamiliar.

He subconsciously grasped the bone blade at his waist, revealing an unconcealable sharpness.

The original superficial content of the horizontal sword style was recorded on only a few pages of paper, but now it has been transformed and requires at least a dozen books.

My understanding began to show its usefulness and I mastered it in just a dozen minutes.

Shen Lian opened his eyes, and a brilliant light burst out from his eyes.

"All conditioned dharmas are like dream bubbles, dew and electricity, and should be viewed in this way."

He looked around the courtyard, staring at a grasshopper on a leaf of dry grass, and the bone blade at his waist couldn't help but make a sharp sound.

Clang!
The bone blade was slightly unsheathed, and a terrifying blade light flashed by.

The grasshopper was frightened and flew towards the crack in the wall, flapping its wings.

The knife light did not seem to hurt the grasshopper, and the grass and trees in the yard remained intact.

Shen Lian sheathed his sword.

A crack appeared on the grasshopper's back, and the old body split into two, and then a new grasshopper larva drilled out from it.

The larvae died after crawling only a few steps due to exhaustion of its lifespan.

[Horizontal Sword Style (Nirvana Slashing Life)]

Shen Lian raised the corner of his mouth. He could still accumulate sword power in the horizontal sword stance, and the light of the unsheathed sword could act on the illusory [lifespan].

If the target is living beings, when their lifespan is sharply reduced, it will manifest as the decline of their body and soul; if the target is demons, when their lifespan is sharply reduced, it will manifest as a decrease in their spiritual level.

"The True Scripture is quite interesting. The horizontal sword style can be used as a trump card again."

Shen Lian continued to refine the true scriptures. It took him a lot of effort to digest the other two sentences of Hinayana Buddhism in the Dragon Fish Robe. There was no shortcut on the career panel.

The dragon fish robe sparkled with golden light, and Sanskrit was engraved on the surface of the scales.

roar roar.

The Dragon Fish Robe let out a hearty roar, and then stepped into the ranks of superior magic weapons.

Shen Lian can not only use the Dragon Fish Robe to divert his own injuries, but also because of the two words "purity", he can also divert the erosion of demonic aura.

He then figured out how to upgrade the Dragon Fish Robe to a treasure.

Just continue to integrate the Hinayana Buddhism of the Samantabhadra Sutra.

By the time Shen Lian had finished studying the Sutra, the teleportation tree in the Pansi Cave had grown fully grown. Its branches were covered with spider silk, attracting a large number of insects.

He looked around for a moment, then dived into the Pansi Cave.

After a moment of trance, Shen Lian arrived at the extremely desolate Pansi Cave. What came into view was the caves that led in all directions, and...

Insect eggs hanging on the rock wall.

The eggs have been torn open and the insect monster has disappeared.

Shen Lian took out the Wanhu token and contacted Li Shun after a long time. The latter was in a daze and kept repeating a sentence through his telepathy.

“Go back to Yanshan, go back to Yanshan, Guanyin is in Yanshan!!!”
