Mushroom Man

Chapter 282 A Must-Kill Bai Lai, Dark Turmoil

Right now, inside the scam.

With the loss of the Formless Order by Morobi, she was forced out of the game.

For a moment, the arena fell into a deathly silence.

No one expected that this guy named Mushroom Master would have such skills.

Trading a single mushroom for a Wuxiang Token is an incredibly profitable deal.

The flower's face twitched with envy; one could only feel immense envy.

He looked at Wu Liang, his eyes filled with intense fear.

"Could this guy also know the secret of the Formless Order?"

"If that's the case, this person might actually be a major threat to me..."

Meanwhile, Bai Lai, who had been talking non-stop, was also stunned by the actions of Wu Liang and Mo Luobi.

"what?!"

"So, it turns out that transactions are actually possible within this scam?"

"Then I..."

Bai Lai opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to use the Wuxiang Token to trade for the Tianyuan Lingzhi Mushroom.

However, he swallowed the words back down as soon as they were on the tip of his tongue.

Clearly, Bai Lai is different from Mo Luo Bi; he wouldn't be foolish enough to use the Wu Xiang Token to exchange for a mushroom.

Morobi was willing to exchange it because giving it her all was of great significance to her, involving her own life.

At the same time, Wu Liang and she have a certain degree of trust, know each other well, and have successfully cooperated before.

Under the influence of various factors, Morobi was finally willing to exchange the Formless Token for her full strength.

For Bai Lai, however, the situation was quite different.

The Tianyuan Lingzhi Mushroom wasn't actually that important to him, and it wasn't worth exchanging for it with the Wuxiang Token like Molubi did.

Secondly, he is currently captured by the sword monk and is under his control; he doesn't even know if he has a chance of survival.

Even if he retrieves the Tianyuan Lingzhi Mushroom, it will be meaningless in the current situation.

Moreover, if he loses the Formless Token and his status as the successor of the Formless, he might be slapped to death by the sword monk when he returns.

After all, the reason that bald Buddhist monk didn't kill him immediately was probably because of his identity as the successor of the Formless Sect.

Moreover, Bai Lai and Wu Liang were not familiar with each other.

Wu Liang had previously gone back on his word and betrayed him.

How could he possibly believe that after he produced the Formless Token, Wu Liang would actually offer the Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom for trade?

If Wu Liang doesn't give him the Heavenly Origin Spirit Mushroom after he hands over the Formless Token, then he'll have lost both his wife and his army once again.

Therefore, it was absolutely impossible for Wu Liang to give away the Wuxiang Token that he had obtained for free.

Although Wu Liang was unaware of these unrelated matters, he knew that Bai Lai did not trust him as much as Mo Luobi did.

That's why Wu Liang didn't choose Bai Lai as his first option.

"This mushroom..."

Seeing that Bai Lai had finally quieted down, Hua Youque quickly spoke up, seemingly wanting to take the opportunity to find out Wu Liang's background.

Unfortunately, he was really unlucky.

The moment he opened his mouth, the scam began to fall apart.

The indistinct outlines of the crowd began to fade away.

Clearly, after all that fuss Bai Lai had made earlier, he had wasted a lot of time, and the scam was coming to an end.

Hua Youque only has two Wuxiang Orders, which is not enough to sustain the scam for long.

In this situation, he could only watch helplessly as Wu Liang's figure disappeared into the scam, filled with resentment.

‘Damn it! ’

'It's all that petty thief's fault.'

'If he hadn't thrown a tantrum and ruined my plans, I would have already figured out everyone's background through this scam.'

Hua Youque's eyes turned cold as she glared hatefully at Bai Lai, who was also dissipating.

Bai Lai was extremely sensitive to gazes and immediately noticed Hua Youque's eyes.

He didn't care at all, and instead met her gaze directly with a glare.

"What are you?"

"What, want to spar with your Master Bai?"

As soon as Bai Lai finished speaking, his figure vanished into thin air.

Hua Youque's face darkened, and he silently added Bai Lai to his kill list number one.

The next moment, his figure was also forced to disappear into the scam...

……

North Sea.

A giant dragon-turtle-mushroom beast, resembling neither a turtle nor a dragon, and over ten zhang in size, comparable to a ship, roamed the water.

On the back of this dragon turtle sat a white-robed monk sharpening a sword.

Beside him was a young monk with a shaved head, who appeared to be taking a nap with his eyes closed.

This white-robed monk was none other than the sword monk who had rushed to the North Sea to slay the demon.

"go with!"

The swordsman sharpened his sword for a long time, then suddenly pointed at it.

The next moment, the sharp sword pierced through the air and flew towards the Pure Heaven Buddhist Sect.

This move is none other than the famous Flying Sword Message.

"A troubled time..."

"I never expected that Zhuge the Demon would actually be connected with the Old Ancestor Yuan Tu."

"I hope that the Five Wisdom Bodhisattvas will send helpers to assist this humble monk as soon as possible after receiving this message. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to snatch anyone from the hands of the Yuan Tu Ancestor on my own."

The sword monk sighed softly, gazing at the distant, faintly visible Shura Island, his eyes filled with solemnity.

Shura Island is the sealed place of the Yuan Tu Ancestor, the place where he passed away.

This place is covered by blood clouds all year round, and ordinary mushroom masters can't get close at all; only immortals can approach it.

The origins of the Yuan Tu Ancestor are unknown; all that is known to the world is that he is an old monster who has lived for an unknown period of time.

According to the historical records provided by the Jingtian Buddhist sect, this person was very likely a figure from the medieval period.

It even seems to be vaguely related to the famous and powerful Blood River Ancestor, the Red Flag Master, who was renowned throughout the North Sea.

According to historical records, Yuan Tu Laozu should have died long ago due to the exhaustion of his lifespan.

Historical records clearly state that some people witnessed Yuan Tu Fudi falling from the four continents and landing on Shura Island.

Later generations who wanted to inherit the Yuan Tu Blessed Land even ventured into Shura Island.

But after all these years, no one has discovered where the Yuan Tu Blessed Land was hidden.

Only now, with the sudden reappearance of the Yuan Tu Ancestor, has the truth come to light.

It turns out that the Yuan Tu Ancestor never died at all.

This ancient monster from the Middle Ages has sealed himself away by some unknown means.

That is why later generations failed to find Yuan Tu's blessed land.

"What is the purpose of a demonic ancestor who was a seventh-level mushroom immortal tens of thousands of years ago suddenly appearing in this era?"

"With the Yellow Court hanging high above him, his fate is in the hands of Heaven. This person will surely not escape death once he comes out."

"This Ancestor Yuan Tu was already nearing the end of his lifespan, which is why he was forced to remain in seclusion."

"To be born at this time, isn't that just courting death?"

The swordsman frowned, gently stroking his longsword, utterly perplexed.

At that moment, he seemed to have thought of something, and a bold guess suddenly popped into his mind!

Could it be...

It was because of the commotion caused by the Demonic Ancestor Wuxiang Tianzun not long ago that gave these Demonic Rascals a glimmer of hope.

Does this mean these guys want to stir up another wave of dark turmoil in the mushroom world?

The sword monk felt a chill run down his spine at the thought, even though he was an immortal.

What is the Dark Turmoil?

In the history of the mushroom world, there have been three major dark upheavals.

The first Dark Turmoil occurred in the Middle Ages, during the later years of the Formless Celestial Venerable.

Wuxiang Tianzun created the primordial chaos, established the concept of the demonic path, and led all the demonic villains in the world in an attempt to overthrow the Yellow Court of Humanity and rebel against destiny.

That dark upheaval lasted for a full thousand years, plunging the entire mushroom world into prolonged darkness.

The four continents are ravaged, littered with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and everyone lives in fear.

However, as the lifespan of the Formless Celestial Venerable came to an end, he was ultimately defeated by fate, and the demonic path fell into silence.

The second Dark Turmoil occurred in the near-ancient period when Tailu Tianzun lived.

Tailu Tianzun is the Venerable One who attained enlightenment and became a Venerable One after Wuxiang Tianzun launched the Dark Turmoil.

The mushroom world was in great chaos during that period due to the influence of the Dark Turmoil.

Tailu Tianzun grew up during that period and was inevitably influenced, turning into a world-class demon, and also stirring up dark turmoil in his later years.

When the Supreme Lord of Tailu raised his arm and called out, all the demonic forces under heaven responded.

Some demons who had proclaimed themselves as demons since the time of Wuxiang Tianzun emerged one after another, followed Tailu Tianzun, attacked Huangting, and sought to destroy destiny.

The history of the mushroom world does not record the outcome of that battle in detail.

However, judging from the fact that Huang Ting is still intact and Destiny still hangs high in the sky, Tai Lu Tian Zun has clearly failed.

The third Dark Turmoil also occurred in the near-ancient period, when Zhenwu Tianzun attained enlightenment and became a supreme being.

When Zhenwu Tianzun was still a mushroom master in his early years, he witnessed all the suffering in the world.

Because of two dark upheavals, the people of the mushroom world suffered terribly, human life was cheap, and corpses of the starving were everywhere.

Therefore, Zhenwu Tianzun deeply abhorred the demonic path and, in the name of the Demon-Slaying Ancestor, sought to eradicate all demons in the world.

Therefore, after he attained enlightenment and became a Venerable One, he immediately began the Jiazi Extermination of Demons.

A cycle of sixty years is a whole year.

For sixty years, Zhenwu Tianzun walked the world. Without exception, all the villains who had colluded with the demonic path who fell into his hands met their demise in the Northwest and returned to the Yellow Springs.

Because of the Heavenly Venerable Wuxiang, many self-proclaimed demons remained in the world at that time, and their self-proclaimed methods became rampant.

Zhenwu Tianzun, with his own power, found out one by one those self-proclaimed demons.

Those demons who clung to life were unwilling to die so easily, so they were forced to launch a dark upheaval in an attempt to rebel against Zhenwu Tianzun.

However, as expected, under the merciless suppression of Zhenwu Tianzun, the vast majority of the self-proclaimed demons perished.

Furthermore, Zhenwu Tianzun also destroyed and eradicated all those self-sealing methods that had spread throughout the world and caused widespread disaster.

That is why those who can self-impose restrictions are so rare these days.

Apart from Huang Ting, there are no other evil scoundrels who would use such methods that are intolerable to heaven and earth.

However, nothing in this world is absolute; a wildfire cannot burn it all, and it will spring back to life with the spring breeze.

At that time, there were still a few demons who managed to escape the Jiazi Demon Extermination Campaign.

Yuan Tu Laozu was clearly one of them.

Looking at the three Dark Turmoils, without exception, they all had unimaginable impacts on the mushroom world.

Since the Heavenly Venerable Wuxiang attained his status, a dark upheaval has occurred almost every ten thousand years.

For 30,000 years, it has never been absent.

The mushroom world has finally ushered in a period of prosperity, could it be that darkness and turmoil are about to descend...?

Coming again?
