"It's a pity that the cultivation method is too difficult and has been lost due to the vicissitudes of life."

Huang Yu asked curiously, "I've heard that there's a Golden Light Master in Quanxing who knows this Golden Escape Flowing Light technique, which can cover a hundred miles in an instant. How is that possible?"

Zhang Jingqing was stunned, not expecting to hear this news.

"Fellow Daoist Duan, after disappearing for so many years, he actually managed to master it..."

Zhang Jingqing pondered for a moment and said:

“Master Jin Guang’s original name was Duan Youde. He was originally a Taoist priest of the Shangqing School of Maoshan.”

"He was initially obsessed with the Golden Escape Flowing Light technique and always wanted to restore it. To this end, he even befriended people from the Quanxing sect to explore related techniques that had been lost in the sect, and he also did some evil deeds."

"Later, the Shangqing Sect discovered what he had done and expelled him from the sect, so Master Jinguang simply joined the Quanxing Sect."

"Hmph, speaking of which, I have some old grudges with him."

"Now that he has restored his Golden Release: Flowing Light technique, I'm actually a little reluctant to kill him..."

Huang Yu understood; he hadn't expected that Venerable Jin Guang had such a past.

He also planned to find an opportunity to catch Jin Guang Shangren and see if he could get his hands on the Golden Escape Flowing Light.

This escape technique is incredibly useful; it's a top-notch method for escaping, traveling, or launching surprise attacks on the battlefield.

It has extremely high strategic value!

Suppressing his distracting thoughts, Huang Yu looked at the people of Mingle City.

Even after the death of the Great Black Buddha, these people remained in a state of fanatical faith, shouting that they wanted to kill Huang Yu and the others, and that they wanted to resurrect the Great Black Buddha.

All I can say is that the brainwashing was very thorough.

Huang Yu frowned as he looked at the crowd, pondering how to lift the control over them.

"How should we deal with these people?"

"Having part of his memory and personality washed away by the Yellow Springs True Water, and his mind clouded by his telepathy, it's really not easy to solve."

"I can concoct some medicines to clear the mind and improve their mental state for them to take, but that only treats the symptoms, not the root cause."

Huang Yu looked directly at Zhang Jingqing and asked:

"Celestial Master, how does the Celestial Master's Mansion deal with this situation where the mind is controlled?"

The Celestial Master's Mansion has a history of over a thousand years and should have seen most of the methods in the world, so it should have corresponding solutions.

Zhang Jingqing stroked his beard.

"The Purification Mantra, one of the eight great divine incantations of Taoism, is most suitable for this situation."

"The Purification Mantra calms the mind, stabilizes the will, protects the soul, and removes distracting thoughts and delusions, bringing the mind back to purity."

"only……"

Zhang Jingqing looked around at the densely packed believers who were in a state of frenzy and trembled involuntarily:

"It's just that too many people need to use the purification mantra..."

Looking around, there were at least several thousand people!

If she were to use the Purification Mantra on each of them, Zhang Jingqing suspected she would die young.

He felt he couldn't hold on any longer.

Huang Yu swallowed hard, feeling a little scared.

This matter needs to be resolved; we can't pretend we don't see it, or who knows what crazy things these believers might do.

Throughout history and across the world, cult followers have always been extremists who can easily cause major incidents.

Huang Yu pondered for a moment, then said seriously:

"Master, if I may ask, could you please pass on this purification mantra to me and my disciple?"

“I think having more people to use the purification mantra should reduce the workload.”

"I guarantee that this purification mantra will never be leaked!"

To be honest, Huang Yu knew that this request was not good, since it was asking someone to teach him his family's techniques.

However, Huang Yu doesn't really have any good solutions at the moment. He considered all the methods he had, and only three could solve his mental problems.

The art of tearing cotton, the art of captivating the soul, the secret medicine recipes in the Tengshan Pharmacopoeia...

The three methods combined can indeed solve most mental problems, and can even manipulate the minds of others.

However, the methods of the Great Black Buddha are indeed somewhat strange. The combination of the Yellow Spring True Water and his mind-reading ability seems to have touched upon the modification of the underlying thinking.

It's far beyond what Huang Yu's limited drugs and methods can interfere with.

Even if those believers are temporarily controlled, once the effects of the medicine and magic wear off, they will still be followers of the Black Buddha...

They may even hide themselves more deeply, making them even more difficult to detect.

Zhang Jingqing laughed loudly:

“I have already passed on the purification mantra to you, so why can’t I pass on the purification mantra to you?”

"These magical techniques created by our ancestors are treasures left to future generations, and they should be put to use!"

"Now that the time has come to use it, why would I hold onto my old tools?"

Huang Yu cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Your Excellency is truly righteous!"

Zhang Jingqing said, "Brother Zuo, Master Huang, please come over here. I will demonstrate the use of the Purification Mantra for you."

In fact, there were some things Zhang Jingqing didn't say, namely that the Celestial Master's Mansion, with its thousand-year-old heritage, had long since developed its own set of survival wisdom.

Apart from the Golden Light Mantra, the Five Thunder Orthodox Method, and the Heavenly Master's Transmission, which are fundamental methods of cultivation and cannot be passed on to outsiders, everything else can be taught as long as it benefits the world.

Chapter 149 Zuo Ruotong and Zhang Jingqing's Ideas

【Mantra for Purifying the Mind (Beginner 0/100)】

As soon as Zhang Jingqing finished teaching the Purification Mantra, a skill information flashed across the class panel.

Huang Yu suggested:

"Let's leave here first. We can't get these people out of control in a short time."

"I will have the army surround the city, besiege it but not attack it, and regularly send in small amounts of food and water to keep them in a state of semi-starvation."

"In this way, once we are ready, they will be unable to resist, making it easier for us to cast the Purification Mantra."

Zuo Ruotong nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it that way."

Zhang Jingqing looked at Huang Yu and became more and more pleased... Look at him, he has both strength and a career, and then look at the silly roe deer under her command.

Zhang Jingqing no longer wants to engage in any kind of sparring or competition.

After the battle with the Great Black Buddha, Zhang Jingqing could clearly see that Huang Yu's strength had far surpassed Zhang Zhiwei's, and had even reached the level of herself and Zuo Ruotong.

Sigh, it's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy.

Clang!

Zhang Jingqing flicked Zhang Zhiwei on the head, leaving him dazed.

"Master, why did you hit me again?"

"Hmph, I see you've gotten too cocky lately. I'll teach you a lesson and show you that there are always people better than you. Don't be so arrogant all the time."

Zhang Zhiwei immediately understood, and gave Huang Yu a resentful look: "Brother Huang, meeting you is my good fortune."

It wasn't until he met Huang Yu that Zhang Zhiwei realized there really was someone with higher cultivation talent than him.

After several years of cultivation, Zhang Zhiwei thought he would leave Huang Yu far behind, after all, he had the Golden Light Mantra and Five Thunder Orthodox Method inherited from the Celestial Master's Mansion, while Huang Yu only had some strange skills.

Unexpectedly, Huang Yu secretly became a disciple of the San Yi Sect and learned all sorts of strange and unusual techniques from who knows where...

Huang Yu patted Zhang Zhiwei on the shoulder: "Haha, Brother Zhiwei, there's no need to compare yourself to me."

After all, I'm a super cheater...

Afterwards, the group used various methods to slip out of Mingle City.

Zhang Jingqing and Zhang Zhiwei transformed into bolts of lightning, crackling and popping as they dashed through the gaps in the crowd.

Zuo Ruotong concealed her presence, blended into the crowd, and strolled out leisurely.

Huang Yu is in a bit of a bind; he also has to retrieve the more than two hundred Divine Machine Puppets he released.

He used the Ghostly Movement technique to reduce his own presence, storing each of the divine puppets into his storage bag without letting the believers notice him.

Tsk, it didn't take long. A moment later, Huang Yu also slipped out of Mingle City.

"Where are they? Where did they all go?"

"They've all run away!"

"Mingle City is now the domain of our Holy Buddhism!"

Looking back at Mingle City, Huang Yu saw a scene of utter chaos and couldn't help but sigh, "It's really a complete mess."

Just then, Ah Xing led a regiment of soldiers and rushed over to the scene.

"Master, how is the situation?"

"We have subdued that monster, but the people in the city are still under our control."

Huang Yu stood in front of Ah Xing, pointed towards Mingle City, and gave the instructions:

"Now, I need you to surround the entire city of Mingle and prevent any believer from escaping."

"There's no need to besiege the city. Just surround them and then regularly send them food and water so they don't starve."

"Afterwards, I will teach you the Purification Mantra, one of the eight great divine incantations of Taoism. You will need it to break free from the mental control of the Great Black Buddha."

Ah Xing saluted: "Yes, sir!"

Immediately, Ah Xing went down to command the troops and distribute tasks.

Military strategy is a vast and profound field; how to encircle, how to allocate troops, how to set up camp... all of these are subjects of study.

Ah Xing and his fellow officers had been trained and honed by military instructors hired by Huang Yu for a year or two, and now they were quite respectable, possessing the basic skills of officers.
