From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

This lifetime—

Worth it!

Nathan's consciousness once again entered the shared spiritual world, and he shouted to all the ghosts who had entered it: "Everyone! Let's get out together!"

The ghosts were completely silent, looking at Nathan as if he were a fool!

"Catherine has allowed us to watch TV!"

"Long live!"

In an instant!

All the ghosts in the room were extremely excited!

# Chapter 907 Sealing the Demon Dragon (Part 2)

Tempted by the promise of "watching TV," the ghosts of the haunted hotel cheered and rejoiced, no longer caring about the "enjoyment" of sharing the spiritual world. They all awoke, returned to their ghostly bodies, and began to tear at the spiritual threads in their bodies, resisting the control of the demon dragon.

"you!"

The little demon dragon felt dizzy and sank into the spiritual world, where he saw the ghosts rebelling against him. He questioned, "I have given you endless pleasure, why do you betray me?"

"We want to watch TV!"

"Your world has everything, but your TV shows are too limited!"

"It's not pretty at all!"

Nathan snapped first, yelling, "I want to watch the game!"

The pumpkin ghost shouted, "I want to watch a Halloween horror movie!"

The ghost with a candle on its head, its eyes menacing, roared, "I want to watch a TV show about two candles falling in love!"

The homeless ghost, wielding a dagger, slashed through the threads binding his body and yelled at the demon dragon, "I want to watch a murder show! I want to kill people too! But I can't kill anyone!"

Before long, all the ghosts had escaped, causing chaos in the Demon Dragon's mind. Just as he was about to use the power of the Mercury Bell to connect all things again, the ghosts vanished from his head.

Open your eyes.

The demon dragon saw Nathan, the Candle Man, the Pumpkin Man, and other ghosts emerging from the brown-haired child's mouth outside the barrier, and only then did it understand the root of the problem.

"mean!"

The little demon dragon roared. Without the ghost as the vessel for his thoughts, how could his weak soul perfectly control the demonic body that had fused with the eight great demonic energies and the rest of the black energy?

However, the intense anger also led to the complete unification of the eight demonic energies, the four evil gods, the three monkeys, and other dark energies.

Sensing a further transformation in the power within his body, the demon dragon was overjoyed. Just as he was about to violently break through the barrier, he saw the eight Bagua talismans drill into the barrier, directly into eight parts of his demonic body, arranged exactly according to the positions of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams.

"You want to extract the demonic energy from my body? You can't do that!"

The little demon dragon sneered, "They have completely merged with me, just like the remaining half of the demonic energy within my father and the others."

"Who said we were going to extract demonic energy?"

Having said that, Jiang Liu connected with the surrounding celestial bodies of this world, exchanged a glance with Da Yu, and together they chanted the mantra: "Om Lan Jing Fa Jie, Qian Yuan Heng Li Zhen!"

The Bagua talisman emitted a dazzling light, connecting many important nodes in the energy cycle of the demon dragon, and constantly drawing out strands of white silk.

That was the divine power unique to the little demon dragon!

"stop!"

The demon dragon trembled and tried to grab the talismans on his body, but even with the power of Bo Gang, it was difficult to shake any of the talismans. The eight talismans had already taken root in his flesh and penetrated into his aura, becoming one with the heaven and earth. If there was no power to shake the entire earth, how could he pull them out?

As its power waned, the demon dragon's body twisted and contorted, eventually transforming into a yellow-green coiled dragon statue.

pat!

The Bagua talisman fell off.

hum-

A blue vortex of energy emerged from the coiled dragon statue.

Seeing this, Jiang Liu raised his finger and stroked his storage ring, taking out a Sun Wukong figure that had been re-carved based on the Monkey King puppet. He then used the Nine Apertures Seal to seal the ball of energy within it.

Unlike the Bagua talisman containing the power of the eight great demon gods, this primordial energy is a unique divine power that the demon dragon comprehended within this "game within a game" by combining the power of the Mercury Bell, the four great evil gods of faith, and the Three Wise Monkeys.

With this divine power.

It allows one's own vital energy to circulate continuously and endlessly.

It allows one's spirit to connect with all living things;

One can use the power of faith to temporarily bestow upon oneself the title of a deity worshipped by people in the world;

It can protect one's own spirit and prevent one from being misled by external interference.

Jiang Liu was slightly surprised to discover that it contained abilities related to the power of worship and faith among all living beings. He opened his wisdom eye and observed it carefully before he realized what was happening.

Scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants!

These four categories are the division of the people of the dynasties in China throughout history. They are the gods that people worship. Except for those who created the world, all other gods cannot be separated from the four categories of scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants.

In ancient dynasties, the belief in these four characters could be almost directly linked to the beliefs of Chinese civilization!

But why are the abilities of these four things linked to "fear"?

These four words have likely trapped kings, generals, ministers, and commoners throughout history across China.

These four characters are inherently auspicious: scholars govern and establish order; agriculture is fundamental and the basis of all industries; industry is innovation and the master of development; commerce is vitality and the source of circulation.

Humans, however, possess seven emotions and six desires; they are not like cars that can run simply by adding gasoline. If a nation were to be founded entirely on these four principles, all living beings would have to be devoid of emotion and desire, otherwise they would all be slaves to these four principles, forced to struggle bitterly in the world, unable to escape…

The very existence of these four characters proves that, regardless of whether sentient beings are aware of this, they subconsciously yearn for liberation from the rule of ancient dynasties.

Perhaps, on the surface, as long as ordinary people are alive and want to live a comfortable life, they will always be inextricably linked to these four words.

However, deep down they naturally rejected and feared the hierarchical order established by successive dynasties based on the social hierarchy of "scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants".

Isn't this the greatest, deepest, and most intractable source of fear in the world?

"Hey~"

Upon realizing this, Jiang Liu sighed, "The terrifying things and monsters that directors of modern horror movies and TV dramas can imagine are merely physiological fears brought to people through the words 'audiovisual,' while the fear brought about by the four words 'scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants' is rooted in the heart."

"Brother Jiang, what are you saying?"

Lu Jin was puzzled.

Jiang Liu then handed the puppet to Lu Jin and explained the essence of its ability to temporarily bestow divine titles through the power of faith: "Bestowing titles is a symbol of power."

The one who governs scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants is the monarch.

My innate ability—the conferment of godhood—is merely a conferment of godhood using my own spirit and soul as its source, seeking to verify the Great Dao through cultivation.

In the real world, bestowing titles upon deities is a way of exercising rule and seeking to control power.

Throughout history, countless people's fears across the land of China have given rise to the four evil gods: scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants!

How lamentable! How tragic! How pitiful!

Looking at the puppet in his hand, Lu Jin remained silent. This world was covered by the Zhou Qi Bureau, and there were demons and monsters. Even the power of people's worship could truly transform into gods and bring unimaginable fear to the world.

Their original world experienced ancient events such as Gonggong's anger at Buzhou Mountain, Nuwa patching up the sky, and Zhuanxu severing the connection between heaven and earth, which led to the break of the original Zhou Qi pattern. The suffering experienced by the people of all dynasties, as well as the fear that arose from those sufferings, were only briefly recorded in historical books.

For example: During a great famine, people ate each other.

In this world, the fear of all beings can truly coalesce into deities through the power of faith, serving as a warning to humanity...

# Chapter 908 To Watch TV!

"Fortunately, times have changed!"

Jiang Liu's tone changed, becoming cheerful.

modern society.

Although the social hierarchy of scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants still exists, and there are still many unsavory things, it is not perfect. However, at least in terms of definition, these four characters are no longer a distinction between superior and inferior, noble and lowly social status.

The same reason.

In the puppet of the wanderer, this ability is only granted by the faith of the masses to bestow divine titles, and does not inspire fear.

The "filth" among them—

All of them remained inside the dragon statue of the little demon dragon.

"You're amazing!"

"You're so high and mighty!"

The little demon dragon, now a statue, heard Jiang Liu's words and understood the situation to some extent. He couldn't help but curse, "Why can't this world be ruled by demons?"

Look at the world ruled by you humans. Wars are constant for power, wealth, and desire, and humans are dying in droves!

When my father and his contemporaries ruled the world, it was divided into eight parts, each peaceful and undisturbed the others, without any war!

"So, no matter what kind of world humanity turns into in the future, we humans will have to bear the consequences ourselves. We don't need to blame you demons anymore."

Hearing the demon dragon say this, Jiang Liu stared at his scarlet eyes for a long while before leisurely saying, "How could you, as a demon, possibly understand such an understanding?"

The demon dragon remained silent, its crimson eyes dimming, clearly unwilling to recall its past life as a human.

Seeing this, Jiang Liu said no more.

Afterwards, Dayu transformed back into Xiaoyu's form, ran to the statue of the demon dragon, picked up the eight talismans, and asked Jiang Liu, "Do these eight talismans represent the divine power of the eight great demons?"

"To be more precise, it should represent the principles of the innate Bagua energy pattern. The eight great demons are able to possess the eight powers of moon, mountain, wind, thunder, water, fire, earth, and sky, but they have only stolen the power of the earth."

After saying that, Jiang Liu took the pilgrim puppet that Lu Jin handed back and gave it to Xiao Yu. He smiled and said, "This pilgrim is carved from a monkey king puppet. It is also the key to the Bagua. Perhaps you will need it in the future."

"Are you going to give me the talismans and the talisman?"

Xiaoyu was overjoyed.
