I can't be a demon.

Chapter 272 You Reap What You Sow

Shen Lian did not expect that the teleportation tree at Wuzhuang Temple would be fully grown in just a few days.

The branches are already flush with the courtyard wall, the roots and branches are upside down and look a bit strange, and the skeleton-shaped fruits hanging on them sway in the wind.

If the identification information was correct, it didn't look like a teleportation tree leading to Wuzhuang Temple at all.

[Banyan tree branches]

[It is formed by the division of the banyan tree under specific conditions. Its roots are connected to the ginseng fruit tree and are scattered in the mass graves where corpses are scattered all over the ground. ]

"Corpses are everywhere..."

"Something serious has definitely happened at Wuzhuang Temple. The cave is probably on the verge of collapse."

After Shen Lian hesitated for a few breaths, the white bony spine extended into the tree hole.

Although it will take some time for the Little Leiyin Temple to be born, its impact has already begun to be felt.

The pirated Di Ting is likely to come to the world ahead of schedule. In a few years, Shen Lian will inevitably need to stay in the world for a long time, mainly to prevent the fishing magic from having gaps and being caught by demons.

Of course, staying in the present world is not helpless. Shen Lian’s current accumulation is enough, and he needs a long period of seclusion to completely digest it.

Moreover, only by reaching perfection in the Eight Realms of Divine Journey can one comprehend the martial arts of the Nine Realms of Heavenly Palace.

"kindness?"

Shen Lian had a subtle expression.

When the White Skeleton Spine arrived at Wuzhuang Temple, he found that the teleportation tree was buried in the soil, surrounded by densely packed wriggling roots.

The roots were no different from living things. He looked through the ghost eye magic weapon at the end of the white bone spine, and it was like seeing a large number of earthworms entangled together.

"Is it... the ginseng fruit tree?"

"Is it possible to trigger the profession without going to Wuzhuang Temple?"

The rhizome is extremely thick, but there is no obvious demonic aura revealed. However, it is definitely not the ginseng fruit tree in the original Journey to the West.

Shen Lian controlled the white bone spine and wanted to touch the rhizome for identification.

Click.

Only a crisp sound was heard, and the white bone spine broke for no reason.

"kindness?"

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes. The broken end of the white bone spine he retracted was extremely smooth, which was difficult to achieve even if he raised the bone blade to cut it.

The damage to the skeleton's spine was not serious and it was healing after swallowing a few sips of medicinal wine.

But what surprised Shen Lian was that the half of the skeleton spine in the Wuzhuang Temple did not show any signs of life.

Logically speaking, the white bone spine would turn into ashes moments after being separated from the body.

Sudden.

Shen Lian's expression became extremely solemn.

He covered his chest with his hands. As the core of his body, his three hearts could naturally sense the abnormality of the half-bone spine, and the vitality in it actually increased greatly.

The half-bone spine was still under the control of Sanxin, but it had already grown flesh and bones...

There are roots connecting the half-skeletal spine, providing a huge amount of nutrients, and the ginseng fruit tree is nurturing its body through the half-skeletal spine.

In other words, clone a body.

"The taboo of the ginseng fruit tree is so strange and inexplicable."

Shen Lian suddenly remembered a conspiracy theory he had read in his previous life.

Zhen Yuanzi is the ancestor of earthly immortals and a person who can discuss Taoism with the Three Pure Ones.

Logically speaking, after Sun Wukong pushed down the ginseng fruit tree, even if he asked Guanyin Bodhisattva to save his spiritual roots, she would not become sworn brothers with Sun Wukong.

There is a saying.

The reason why the ginseng fruit tree can bear baby-shaped fruits is because there are a large number of baby corpses buried underneath. After Sun Wukong pushed the tree down, he learned the truth and asked Guanyin Bodhisattva to make Zhen Yuanzi afraid to act rashly.

Zhen Yuanzi became sworn brothers with Sun Wukong, and later convened a fruit tasting conference to shut up the four masters and apprentices and Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Tang Seng had refused to eat the ginseng fruit several times, but he finally ate one reluctantly at the fruit tasting conference.

Shen Lian did not comment.

If the world of Journey to the West had not collapsed, the conspiracy theory would definitely be false, but now it seems that Wuzhuang Temple is becoming weird.

"What will happen if I don't get rid of Wuzhuangguan's body?"

Shen Lian felt a chill down his spine, the vertical eye between his eyebrows opened, and his soul communicated with the three hearts.

In just a few moments, the second body was almost formed, but its structure was completely different. To be precise, it was more like a human-shaped... fruit?
"Huh, luckily we didn't go directly to Wuzhuang Temple."

The bones of the second body are concentrated in the chest, like a fruit core.

The skin is thick, and it has no internal organs. Its limbs are curled up, and its physical strength is barely one-tenth or one-twelfth of the original body.

Shen Lian was used to seeing monsters and demons, but he still felt his scalp tingling.

When the second body is fully grown, a faint resentment will grow in its Niwan Palace. If no intervention is made, the Niwan Palace will inevitably breed ghosts.

"you get what you sow."

"You get what you sow!"

"No, it's clearly a ghost of a human being!!"

The half of Shen Lian's spine that fell at Wuzhuang Temple was the seed, which, under the stimulation of the ginseng fruit tree's taboo, turned into a fruit.

The rumored innate spiritual root has become a demon!!!
"This damn place, Wuzhuang Temple, is even more dangerous than the Evil Moon Three Heart Cave!"

Click click click.

There were rustling noises coming from the second body. The Niwan Palace was the only complete organ, and it seemed to be used to breed ghosts.

Before long, the resentment reached the level of a wandering ghost.

Suddenly, ghosts began to breed.

Shen Lian looked at the ghost, who was wearing a Taoist robe with a ginseng fruit tree pattern on it, and looked like a disciple of Wuzhuang Temple.

The roots of the ginseng fruit tree feed ghosts, and their spiritual power continues to grow.

Seeing that the ghost was about to be born, Shen Lian activated the Purple Palace Tempering Technique, his three hearts beat faster, his soul was rapidly consumed, and his second body trembled slightly.

boom.

With a muffled sound, the Niwan Palace of the second body began to crack.

The ghost let out a shrill scream, as if it was suffering from an unspeakable taboo, and its soul was destroyed in the blink of an eye.

After the Niwan Palace was damaged, no more ghosts were born.

The ginseng fruit tree seemed to think that Shen Lian's second body was a rotten fruit, and the nutrients it provided were reduced by half, causing the flesh and blood to atrophy.

Shen Lian was actually happy to see this, because if this continued the second body would be devastated.

"and many more."

Shen Lian closed his eyes as if thinking about something. The vertical eye between his eyebrows revealed a vision of an eighth-grade lotus platform, and the contents of the Purple Mansion Tempering Technique flashed through his mind.

The Zifu Equipment Tempering Method has been integrated into many techniques.

This includes the [Secret Art of Corpse Reincarnation] of the White Bone Cave.

"After the original corpse-reincarnation technique is practiced to the highest level, one can split one third of one's own soul and possess the body of another."

"Although it can only control the bodies of others for a short period of time, the advantage is that the destruction of the [soul fragment] will only severely damage the main soul and will not affect the foundation."

Shen Lian's Purple Mansion Weapon Tempering Method only takes into account the secret technique of corpse reconciliation and cannot separate the soul.

but……

If the Purple Mansion Tempering Technique is further advanced, it should be able to split the soul. When the split soul leaves the body and attaches to the second body, it will most likely directly trigger the demon profession of the ginseng fruit tree.

If you can do this, then you just need to gather enough experience from Infinite Corpse Roots to be promoted.

"Give it a try. I'm good at card bugs."

Shen Lian chuckled, and then, while practicing, he paid attention to the fruits of the Middle Way Buddhism.

Three of them are related to great wisdom, namely "Prajna" from the Samantabhadra Sutra, "Infinite Meaning" and "A man of blessings, virtue and wisdom will be born" from the Avalokitesvara Sutra.

If you don’t know the Tathagata Sutra, you won’t know whether it is real or false.

The strength in Shen Lian's body circulated through the whole body over and over again.

"The efficiency of practicing the Changsheng Pillar after six transformations is really high. If I can integrate a few golden body techniques, I can overcome the embarrassment of the wandering realm in a short time."

Shen Lian suddenly remembered something, opened his eyes and smiled bitterly.

"Am I not guarding a treasure mountain without knowing it?"

He looked toward the top of the banyan tree, where Guimei and Yutu were playing on a swing that they had found from somewhere, with a 360-degree windmill swing.

The Jade Rabbit's magical power seems to be able to turn all objects into radishes.

Once the magic power is used, a handful of radishes will appear out of thin air in the little hand. The nutrients contained in the radishes are related to the strength of the original object.

"As expected of the Medicine Pounding Jade Rabbit, its magical powers are simply invincible."

"If I didn't have the banyan tree, I would have wanted to capture it and locked it in a small dark room to mass-produce elixirs. No wonder the fairy Chang'e would carry the Jade Rabbit with her all day long."

Shen Lian stared at the Jade Rabbit and gained insights by visualizing its aura.

Jade Rabbit shuddered, then realized that Shen Lian had no ill intentions. She waved her hand to Shen Lian and continued to run around the city with the ghost girl.

“I didn’t expect it would be possible…”

Shen Lian had already finished drinking the Dawu wine, and no medicinal effect remained, but the experience he gained from comprehending the Golden Body Technique was still preserved.

It can still be figured out by comparing it with other golden body techniques.

It's just inevitably a bit slow.

"It doesn't matter. The elixir fruit produced by the Middle Stage Buddha Dharma will definitely enhance one's enlightenment. It is not difficult to visualize the demons and comprehend the Golden Body Technique."

"Let me do the math. Two silly fish, Jade Rabbit, Ghost Girl, well, the three immortal bones come from the three monkeys, so they should be able to comprehend the Golden Body Technique as well."

"The Seven Golden Body Techniques can at least reach the third or fourth level of Divine Wandering."

Sure enough, using cheats is the shortcut to becoming an immortal.

Shen Lian comprehended patiently, and even though the progress was so slow that it took him ten years to complete one subject, he benefited greatly from the inspiration he gained during that time.

He taught martial arts to millions of people, but the creation of martial arts was done by one person alone.

All the accumulation now is for achieving a land immortal in the future.

Time flies by like a flash.

When Shen Lian came to his senses, half a year had passed.

The particularity of the Middle Vehicle Buddhism means that the elixir fruit is not easy to mature.

You know, now the fifth-level magical power of pregnancy can digest the sneaky monster in about seven or eight days.

The first fruit to ripen was the "Infinite Meaning" from the Guanyin Sutra. The fruit was as big as a watermelon and glowed faintly in the dark night.

【Middle Vehicle Avalokitesvara Fruit】

【Growing from the banyan tree, the fruit of the middle-level Guanyin contains the three words of infinite meaning, which evolved into the three Guanyin objects. 】

[Taking the pulp, one can enter a state of boundless clarity, looking directly at the sacred mountain, and gaining a glimpse of the realm of the gods and immortals.]

[Taking the peel can allow the soul to attach to the endless Buddha light, giving a glimmer of hope for understanding the Buddhist secret art of reincarnation. ]

[Refining the fruit core can imprint the three characters of Wu Jin Yi on the golden body. Remember, those who hold the scriptures must carry them on their journey to the west! ! ! ]

Shen Lian took a deep breath, it was indeed the Middle Way Buddhism.

The medicinal wine brewed from the pulp of the Wu Jin Yi fruit is definitely a help in becoming a terrestrial immortal, and it can also make the ghost gourd closer to a treasure.

It’s hard to say about the fruit peel, but there must be a big pit where the endless Buddha light is attached.

Shen Lian was not very interested in the secret art of reincarnation. When he looked back on his past life experiences, he already had a strange illusion.

Reincarnation?

Does anyone know if you will still be yourself in the next life?
"Let's refine the peel into the dragon fish robe. It won't be a waste."
