I can't be a demon.

Chapter 329 Flood washed away the Dragon King Temple

Shen Lian only felt his scalp tingling. There was no trace of Madam White Bone in his field of vision, but the touch of her face was extremely real.

The vertical eye between the eyebrows opened, and the soul comparable to that of a human immortal swept across.

Not far away there was a pile of bones emitting resentment, and the figure of a woman was pieced together.

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes. Based on his experience with Madam White Bone, it was clear that the latter had only been practicing Taoism for ten thousand years.

The reason why he chose the White Bone Cave was because with his fifth-level wisdom eye and human immortal cultivation, he would be able to gain the upper hand against the ten-thousand-year-old demon.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the cave, he was confronted by Mrs. White Bone.

"Junior brother..."

"Senior Sister, I didn't expect that you would still recognize me after not seeing me for a thousand years."

Shen Lian felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and the martial arts plague pill was running at its maximum capacity, with all kinds of germs filling his body and soul.

Although he had met Madam White Bone once before at a fruit tasting conference, that was all he saw and he didn't think they had a very good relationship.

Shen Lian glanced and saw that Madam White Bone had been born.

A strong aura of resentment was overwhelming, and the skeletons within a hundred miles all turned their heads, staring at Shen Lian with chilling eyes.

Mrs. Bones was wearing a robe similar to a funeral dress. She looked extremely skinny, like a wisp of smoke that could be blown away by the breeze.

But it reveals an indescribable enchanting beauty.

"Junior brother."

Madam Bai Gu looked at Shen Lian, covered her mouth and smiled, "I saw you a few years ago, right? Why didn't I recognize you then?"

She seemed to realize what was different about the Shen Lian in front of her. She had an elusive smile on her face, and the resentment around her caused the mountains of bones to turn upside down and the bones to shatter into powder.

Shen Lian retreated again and again. The threat posed by Madam White Bone was far beyond ordinary. The threat posed by her every move was no weaker than that of a demon that was thirty or forty thousand years old.

But he was sure that the other party had only been practicing Taoism for ten thousand years.

There was only a breath that made his martial arts elixir feel afraid.

"Could it be that I am mistaken? Madam Bai Gu's cultivation level was close to that of a human immortal when she was alive. It is impossible that she became a demon after her death without any improvement."

The Bones Lady walked over, and countless bony arms held her feet.

"Junior brother, do you know the truth about the catastrophe of heaven and earth a thousand years ago?"

"I don't know. When the disaster struck, I was just an ordinary person. I tried my best to escape. How could I find out the truth?"

Shen Lian communicated with the roots of the teleportation tree, fearing that Madam White Bone would suddenly attack.

"Really."

"Junior brother, don't take the Tao too seriously. Only the true scriptures are the great way."

Mrs. White Bone seemed to see what Shen Lian was thinking. She waved her hand and the bone powder gathered together, turning into a string of white bone Buddhist beads in her palm.

The sound of chanting sutras suddenly appeared.

"You should visualize your body as a skeleton, making it as white and pure as possible. Let your head fall down and sink into your ribs. Focus your mind and make it as clear as possible..."

Shen Lian took a deep breath, and the martial arts elixir suddenly revealed its Taoist charm.

He immediately discerned that the content of the scripture was the unique Buddhist view of white bones, which is also the secret technique of Buddhist practice, implying visualizing all living beings as white bones.

Densely packed scriptures emerged, and it was obvious that they were the true scriptures of the Middle Way Buddhism.

There was a flash of shock in Shen Lian's eyes. The scriptures pieced together a skeleton statue of Buddha behind the White Bone Lady, but it was incomplete in many places.

"Madam Bai Gu has refined more than one or two sutras."

Shen Lian felt suffocated and suddenly realized that he had fallen into a misunderstanding. As peerless demons who had gone through eighty-one tribulations, they might have only been practicing Taoism for ten thousand years, but many of them were once mounts or boys of immortals and Buddhas.

Anyone who can survive the catastrophe of heaven and earth will realize the importance of the true scriptures.

The true scriptures revealed by Madam White Bone were extremely complex. If Shen Lian was not mistaken, he had at least collected 80% of the complete text of "White Bone Contemplation".

“Once the Madhyamika Buddhism is complete, will it evolve into the Mahayana Buddhism?”

Shen Lian could feel that Madam Bai Gu was intentionally suppressing the demon's resentment. Considering the size of Bai Gu Cave, it was not difficult to improve her Taoism.

He couldn't help but ask, "Senior Sister, I came to the White Bone Cave to discuss something important."

"You said."

"Senior Sister, do you know that the Little Leiyin Temple is about to be born?"

Mrs. Bai Gu remained silent, and the scriptures disappeared into her body bit by bit.

Shen Lian no longer looked down upon the peerless demon.

There must be some cause and effect behind the 81 tribulations that led to them becoming peerless demons, or they themselves are indirect beneficiaries of the great catastrophe of heaven and earth.

The few times Jin Chanzi appeared before he disappeared were in different caves, which seemed to have caused the true scriptures to be scattered in the mortal world and caused demons to wreak havoc.

As long as the great demons are not fools, the accumulation over thousands of years is enough to refine a large number of scriptures.

Of course, there are exceptions like the three monsters in Lion Camel Ridge.

"Of course I know about the Little Leiyin Temple. Have you ever offended them?"

Mrs. Bai Gu lowered her head and moved closer to Shen Lian, and the faint scent of candles filled the air.

Shen Lian broke out in a cold sweat. As far as he could remember, he had never offended her at the Fruit Tasting Conference. Why did he feel like Madam Bai Gu was holding a deep grudge against him?

"It's not that Junior Brother offended Little Leiyin Temple, it's that Little Leiyin Temple wants to slaughter the entire mortal world and turn all the living beings in the Tang Dynasty into a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood."

"Really? You must be referring to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, right?"

Shen Lian didn't expect that Mrs. Bai Gu knew so much. "It's Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but the many evil Buddhas in Xiao Leiyin Temple will definitely intervene."

Mrs. White Bone had a subtle expression and lifted her long hair with her fingertips.

“Junior brother, I have some connections with the Little Leiyin Temple, and I can assure you that no evil Buddha will interfere in your dispute with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.”

"Thank you, senior sister."

Mrs. Bones suppressed a few chuckles and then swung her arms.

"If necessary, the White Bone Cave will help you in secret. Don't worry, the Tang Dynasty will not be destroyed, and even Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva will not dare to do so."

"kindness?"

Shen Lian felt the cave's rejection, and as the fragrant breeze from Madam Bai Gu blew across his face, his consciousness briefly fell into a trance.

The surrounding scenery changes.

When he came back to his senses, he was already in the courtyard of Yanliang Town.

"?"

"Sister has already become a demon, why is she still talking like a young lady, saying half of what she says, what do you mean by necessary?"

Shen Lian hesitated for a few moments, then leaned over and crawled into the tree hole in the Kingdom of Women.

Because the cave has never been created, the Kingdom of Women is like a paradise on earth. All one can see are thousands of alchemists working in the fields.

Shen Lian still restrained his breath.

He felt a little guilty, after all, the ghost girl was the incarnation of the consciousness of the Queen of the Kingdom of Women.

But the ghost girl is obviously not the main consciousness, and abducting the ghost girl by himself, bah, is probably a stupid thing done by a fool, which may very likely cause the main consciousness of the King of the Kingdom of Women to have malicious intent.

The purpose of Shen Lian's trip was very simple, to find Yu Suhua, whom he knew well.

At the beginning, he helped Yu Suhua improve his qualifications, and the latter should have been promoted to the inner sect, and he should have been able to deploy some outer sect alchemists.

"I don't know where Daoist Yu lives, but please don't live in the Imperial Palace."

In the center of the cave in the Kingdom of Women is the mountain where the imperial palace is located. The outer disciples farm at the foot of the mountain, while the inner disciples can travel to and from the imperial palace.

In Shen Lian's impression, apart from the alchemists in the inner and outer gates of the Kingdom of Women, all the prime ministers and generals were the incarnations of the consciousness of the King of the Kingdom of Women.

Even the demonized Zimu River and Luotai Spring are not immune.

Shen Lian activated his food-replenishing ability and locked onto Yu Suhua's soul. Fortunately, the latter lived in an independent temple halfway up the mountain.

He quietly moved towards the temple, and it took him half a day to get there.

dong dong dong.

Yu Suhua heard a knock on the door and pushed it open with a puzzled look on her face.

After not seeing for a long time, Yu Suhua has already stepped into the Ninth Realm, leaving only her head, which also shows that her status in the Kingdom of Women is not low.

"Shen...Fellow Daoist Shen! Let's go into the temple and talk!"

Yu Suhua was extremely surprised to see Shen Lian. The cave was clearly sealed, so how did he get to the heart of the Kingdom of Women without anyone noticing? She excitedly served tea to Shen Lian, and then heard him talk about what he had seen in the outside world.

Upon hearing the news of the birth of the Little Leiyin Temple, Yu Suhua frowned tightly, secretly surprised at Shen Lian's audacious character.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, you don't know that even if you can help us get out of the cave, it is difficult to bypass the influence of the Zimu River. After all..."

Yu Suhua reached out and touched her head, and the poisonous insect was parasitic inside it.

Shen Lian felt a headache. It was not realistic to bring the ghost girl to the cave. Even if Nian'er's Taoism had broken through ten thousand years, he would not be able to do anything to the consciousness of the King of the Kingdom of Daughters who had a high probability of refining the true scriptures.

Yu Suhua saw Shen Lian's dilemma and gritted her teeth and said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, let me try."

"Don't take any risks. It's unnecessary."

Yu Suhua shook his head and explained: "I will issue a mission to go out and collect resources. If I can get the Prime Minister's permission, I can personally lead a group of outer disciples to support the Tang Dynasty."

"Row."

Shen Lian did not make things difficult for Yu Suhua. After giving her some simple instructions, he returned to Yanliang Town.

Yu Suhua sat in the room thinking about how to improve her confidence and told the prime minister that her words must stand up to scrutiny.

At this moment.

She heard footsteps approaching.

Yu Suhua thought it was Shen Lian who turned back, so she stood up and walked out of the house.

"Prime Minister!"

A graceful woman appeared in the courtyard. Yu Suhua's face turned pale and she knelt on the ground, at a loss.

"Why won't my brother see me?"

Yu Suhua's clothes were soaked with cold sweat and her teeth were chattering with fear.

"look at me."

The prime minister said coldly, Yu Suhua instinctively raised his head, memories flowed to the former like a tide, and his body and soul became shaky.

"So that's how it is. It was Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva who offended my brother."

The prime minister stroked Yu Suhua's head gently. The latter's injuries healed, and his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds during the infusion. In the blink of an eye, he reached the ninth level of perfection.

"I know it."

A huge amount of scriptures surged and condensed into a statue of Buddha behind the prime minister.

Obviously, she, like Madam Bai Gu, has also refined many scriptures. If you look closely, it is the "Samantabhadra Sutra" of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.

.........

Shen Lian’s next stop was Gao Laozhuang.

To be honest, his connection with Gao Laozhuang is not very deep.

Although the ghost dad is the son-in-law of the Gao family, he forcibly distorted Miss Gao into the ghost mom, and it seems that he will get into trouble if he really comes to visit.

Shen Lian plans to pick a group of ghosts and later turn them into his lackeys through the ghost father's taboos.

Even if he had not achieved the status of a hidden ghost, two or three thousand years of cultivation would be enough to allow him to be used specifically to guard the remote towns and villages of the Tang Dynasty.

As soon as Shen Lian arrived at Gao Village, he noticed that the cave was extremely festive.

There are lights and decorations everywhere.

The doors of every household on Yongcui Street were open, but the shops were empty.

The cotton ghost was hurriedly packing things in the pawnshop, and his clothes looked unusually red, like a groom about to get married.

"Wealth."

The cotton wool ghost jumped up in fright and asked eagerly, "Young Master, why are you back?"

"The Gao family is looking for a son-in-law again?"

"That's not the case." Fugui said cautiously, "I heard that it was the appearance of Tianpeng Zhenjun that made Master Gao host a banquet for us."

"Manifestation." Shen Lian looked far in the direction of Gao Village. His soul passed through the thick fog and noticed a figure standing in front of the mansion.

"How long will the banquet last?"

"It should be a few years. People from all over the place have been rushing to Gao's house."

The cotton-wool ghost wanted to say something but stopped himself, fearing that he would offend Master Gao if he was a few steps late, and even more afraid that the young master in front of him would punch him to death.

"After the banquet is over, shake the banyan tree in the backyard for a while."

"it is good."

Shen Lian disappeared in a flash, leaving the Cotton Ghost scratching his head in confusion.

Then, from deep within the cave, there was an inexplicable sound of chanting. The figure in front of Gao’s house put his hands together, and endless Buddha light emanated from behind him.

.........

Shen Lian didn't expect that getting help would be so difficult.

He strolled around and ended up catching only a few hundred black carps in the Bibotan Lake to breed elixir fruits. He thought his extensive network of contacts was of no use.

"Hey."

Shen Lian sighed and secretly sent a message to the Jinwu Guards, asking the court to contact Moyun Cave.

As a result, the Wansui Fox King, who had only met him once, was unusually straightforward and agreed to support more than a hundred disciples of the Tang Dynasty who were above the sixth realm.

And surprisingly, Gao Qiu contacted Qingshan through the Ministry of Finance.

With the help of Qingshan's relationship, he successfully obtained the promise of the Great Immortal Huli, who agreed to send some disciples to be stationed in the Tang Dynasty.

"Alas, it can be said that human nature is fickle and the world is indifferent."

Shen Lian looked at the teleportation tree leading to the Xieyue Sanxin Cave, wondering if Master Bodhi would occasionally become more conscious.

.........

Xiaoleiyin Temple.

The main hall is pitch black, filled with statues of Buddha. In the center is the smiling Maitreya Buddha, which looks lifelike.

Click click click.

The Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's statue's upper and lower jaws loosened, and it suddenly opened its mouth.

"Buddha, there are 330,000 blood food in Lu Zu Temple. I would like to ask if you can send some [Buddhas outside the temple] to encircle and suppress them?"

"What do you think?"

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva looked around and thought that perhaps only a few people who had attained the true Buddhahood did not care about blood food, while the other Buddhas would inevitably want to get involved.

According to the information conveyed by the Arhat, Lu Zu's cultivation is still shallow, but he may be a living immortal or Buddha.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva needed to focus on the ruins of the old heaven, so he simply gave up part of his interests and dragged all the Bodhisattvas into the water.

"Amitabha, I..."

Just as the Bodhisattva statue was about to agree, a voice interrupted.

"No."

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva turned around and saw that the person who spoke was actually Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva in skeleton form, with forty-two skeleton arms distributed around his body.

"It is indeed impossible."

Another voice responded, it was the Bodhisattva Samantabhadra holding a spring and a river in his left and right hands.

"Let's drop this matter."

Bodhisattva Nagarjuna shook the dragon's head and tried to stop him while holding the relic.

"Ksitigarbha, you can do it yourself, but the other Buddhas cannot."

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's gaze was fixed on the last person, a woman with a pig's head and a human body. She was the altar cleaner who seldom spoke in the Little Leiyin Temple.

The Buddhas could not figure out the pros and cons, so they said no more.

Why are four Bodhisattvas involved when mentioning Lu Zu Temple, and all four were personally invited by the Yellow-browed Buddha to worship in the Little Leiyin Temple?

After a long time.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva said: "Good."
